Sir Vicary arrived here yesterday, much earlier than usual, ( thus taking the people by surprise); notwith- standing which he was much hooted, stones were th rown, the windows were broken at the Council- bouse, where he first alighted, afterwards at the Guildhall, and subsequently at the Mansion- house, where, during his stay, he usually resides. A reward of JC50 has been offered for the apprehension of the offenders, and all is at present quiet." CORONER'S INQUEST.— Last night an Inquest was held at St. Thomas's Hospital, oil the body of Mr Ebrall, the corn- meter, who was shot by a Life Guards- man in Mincing- lane, on the day that Jrr F. Burdett was committed to the Tower.— After a great number of witnesses were examined to a very late hour, the Jury retired for aboul five minutes, and brought iu a Verdict of WILFUL MURDER against a Soldier in the rear of the Life Guards, that passed through Fenchurch- streel about one o'clock, on Mondaa 11,' 9th of April. " Mr. Hay, Secretary to the Catholic Committee of Ireland, is arrived in Dublin from Londou. It is said that Mr. Hay is charged with the arrangement of some propositions, which would supersede the necessity of the veto, or negative, on the appointment of the Ca- tholic Bishops, required for the Crown, by some of the most zealous friends of Catholic emancipation, and positively refused by the Catholics of Ireland. It is said that the principle of the proposed arrangement is to allow the Pope no choice or discretion in the ap poiutment, which will only be notified as a thine of course, while the Crowu, secured from jealousy liy tin, reduction of the papal sanction to a mere form— even if the Pope shall become once more independent of France, ( for till that the form itself will not be ob- served)— will have the best possible pledges of attach inent from those Bishops, iu their constitutional oaths and obligations, fortified by the constitutional sanction ot the laws, and known, from experience, to he fu filled in the most loyal and conscientious manner. FRIDAY, APRIL 20. A Mail from Lisbon has brought papers to the 5th inst. Large reinforcements have arrived there from this countrv ; and the combined regular British affd Portuguese armies are said to amount to ' 100,000 men, besides 48 regiments of militia'; at the same time the accounts from Cadiz continue to give a most favourable ' representation of tbe affairs of that part of the Penin- sula—' I he period is evidently fast " approaching, when the intelligence from Spain and Portugal will be of the greatest interest and itiipoilance. The inhabitants of Oporto manifest the same degree of confidence, from which place a large convoy had Sailed, under tbe care of his Majesty's ship Goshawk. This ship, we find, is arrived at Portsmouth, andthe arrival of the fleet is expected to be announced In town to- day, A considerable number of merchantmen ar- rived off Opo to Bar. on the 29th of March. We have great pleasure in stating, that the Emperor of Morocco, who, it was feared, would be averse to the occupation, of Ceuta by the British troops, has declared h s perfect satisfaction at thai event. His Majesty has further signified his readiness, not only to supply that place with bullocks, on the ' usual terms, but Cadiz and Gibraltar also. The possession of Ceuta will, we trust, soon open a very extensive and valuable commcrce with the gica? empire of that Sovereign, and with the interior of Moorish Africa. Letters have been received from Ensle of the 1st, and from Frankfort of the 3H instant. Trade was ih. vtive; those'famous cities held no longer their rank among the municipal establishments of Europe, and, by the introduction of the French system, were experien- cing al! ihe evils of poverty and oppression.— In the various o. oirynunic tions from Holland, the picture drawn of the melancholy Condition of that country, in consequence of the late Treatv, is most afflicting. A treei ng took pla e on Wednesday at the Crown and Anchor Tavern, in the Stra: d, to take into con sideralion the case of Mr. Gale jon'es. Mr, Clifford in the Chair,— After a short speech from Mr. Clifford, certain resolutions were put from the Chair, and seconded by Mr. Hardy. These having, been unani- mously carried, a resolution was next submitted to the meeting, proposing a subscription for the support of Mr. Gale Jones, and the cause ho has espoused. ""' was also carried unanimously. The article of the Bill of Rights to which the Chancellor of the Exchequer alluded on Tuesday, on j the occasion of Sir F. Burdctt's letter being received, 1 is as follows : " That the freedom of speech and debates br pro- ceedings in Parliament ought not to be impeached or questioned, in any Court or place out of Parliament." A Meeting of the Freeholders of the County of Middlesex is appointed by the Sheriff for Thursday next, " To consider the propriety of adopting any and what measures, hy Address, Petition, Resolution, or Otherwise, on the subject of the late Votes of the House of Commons, in the case of Sir Francis Burdett, and of the new and extraordinary proceedings had thereupon," The United Kingdom and Charlton East Indiamen, which were captured bv the French and carried inlo the Isle of France, sailed from Portsmouih in company with the Windham and two others. There is some apprehension respecting the fate of the Windham. No less than fifteen of the Company's ships have been lost or taken in the course of as many months ! Vice- Admiral Sir C. Cotton passed by Plymouth on the 17th inst. in the Lively frigate, on his voyage lo the Mediterranean, where he is to take the chief com- mand ot the British fleet, in the room of the late lamented Lord Colling wood. Admiral Martin holds the comrmind of that fleet in the interval.— His Lord, ship, who had nearly attained his 60th year, was born in the county of Northumberland, where his family has been settled for several years. On the 22d of March, 17SO, he was made a Post Captain ; the 14th of February, 1799, a Rear Admiral of the Blue; the 23d of April, 1804, a Vice- Admiial of the Blue; arid on the death of Lord Gardner, he was, the 4th of January, 1809, created Major General of the Ma- rines. The conduct of his lordship, in the battle of Trafalgar, excited the admiration of the w hole fleet, and Lord Nelson frequently directed the attention ot his officers to the Royal Sovereign, exclaiming, with the enthusiasm which he always displayed, when in battle, " Look at Collingwood— look at Coliing- wood ! — It is deeply to be lamented, that neither of these heroes, should have lived to revisit their native land, to have witnessed the admiration, and received the applauses of their countrymen. His lordship died of n stoppage of the pylorus, or inferior aperture of the stomach. For some time before his death, he was incapable of taking any sustenance whatever. Earth quakf. — Accounts have been received, in private letters from Malta, which describe that island to have undergone a severer shock ut an earthquake than it had ever before experienced. It took place on the night of the 16th of February, having been pre- ceded by extraordinary and terrific symptoms. The shock continued for two minutes, with the respite of a few seconds, an unusual length. The consternation of the town of Villette was beyond conception ; al! the bells ringing, monks praying, women screaming, the rabble running desperately through the streets; and the horses and cattle, as nsual, joining in the terror and noise. The solid rock was shook like a cradle, and the ships in the harbour tossed up and down as if in a swing. Two more shocks ensued the next day, though not so severe. The only actual damage done to the buildings is the fall of one hospital, and one of the gates of the town. The packet put back in the. hurricane, and did not sail again till the 19th; when it was cur- rently reported and believed, that three islands on the coast of Sicily, with Syracuse itself, had bsen destroyed. FROM THE LONDON GAZETTE. ADMIRALTY OFFICE, APRIL 20. The King has been pleased to appoint Sir Pichard Bicker- ton, Bart.

Admiraliij- Oflire, April 21.— Ad. pirat Urd Gambler has transmitted to John Wilson Croker, Esq. a letter from Captain Kerr, of his Majesty's ship Unicorn, giving an account ot his liavni", on the 12th instant, captated L' 1'. speratice French National vessel ( late his M ' jeSty's ship Laurel) artned en tlote, commanded bv a Lieutenant de Vatssean, with a valuable cargo of Colonial produce from" the Isle of France. SATURDAY, APRIL 21. By a vessel which sailed from Dunkirk on the 18th instant, scmo Paris Journal* of the I5tli have been received in towii. A letter from Vienna sats, ' it is affirmed by persons worthy of credit, that one of our most celebrated negot iators, at this moment in Paris, will repair to Loudon, accompanied by a great person- age of the Court of France, to treat for a general pa- cification. II is at the same time reported, that the Emperor intends to make a journey lo Paris, accom- panied by Ibe Archduke Charles. The period of his setting off is not fixed.' Letters have been received from Paris, the contents of which are extremely discouraging to tbe American claimants. There docs not seem tube, the least ho, e of the recovery of any of the ships aud cargoes bc- louging to the United States which have been placed under sequestration at St. Sebastian and in the ports ol Italy. The same rigour is expected, and in a great measure adopted, in Holland and other kingdoms ol the Continent, Russia and Snellen excepted. Letters of tbe 30th uit, from Gibraltar, brought by the Jason frigate, arrived at Portsmouth on Thursday, colli, mi not ti. e slightest allusion to the rumours de- rived from the same place, of the defeat of the Spa- niards in Catalonia. The beet of men of war, consisting of 20 sail of the line, besides smaller vessels, destined for tiie Baltic, is ••*• ••< led to sail from Yarmouth this day. It appears by a dispatch from the Marquis de la Romana, that Ihe Spanish General Ballasteros had his head- quarters on the 28th ult. in tlie neighbourhood of Ronquillo; from which lie reports lhat he had defeated the'enemy at Santa Olaila, and dislodged them from all the strong points in that neighbourhood. Letters dated the 6th instant, from St. Andero, communicate the unpleasant intelligence of the failure of a plan to expel the French from that town and neighbourhood. The inhabitants had taken measures Tor rising on the troops by which it was occupied. Accordingly, on the 3d, a partial execution of the plot took place. About 100 of the French were surprised and killed in their quarters. An alarm, however, was spread; the garrison flew to arms, and in a short time overpowered the Spaniards, and pill a great number of them to death. Near 200 of the principal inhabitants, it is said, have heed sent off under escort to France, lo abide the orders of the French Government. The military that were brought into London, in con- sequence of Ihe late disturbances, began to be marched on their different routes, on Thursday aud yesterday. The Leonesa Sheep which were brought from Spain last Wmter, and advertised for sale this week, have at- tracted the notice of the officers in Spain, whose duty it is to prevent their exportation, in consequence of their being selected from superior flocks, of which that government is most tenacious; aud commissioners have been appointed to examine the parties concerned in shipping them. 11 is officially noticed at Lloyd's, that' the two frigates which arrived at the Isle of France, with their prizes, the United Kingdom and Charlton, have captured a third ship, which it was reported had sailed from the Cape, in company with those vessels. On Thursday, a most numerous and highly respect- able meeting of the Liyery, friends to Parliamentary Reform, dined together at the ctly of London 1' avern. So early as tin'ee o'clock the great dining room was filled-, and from the increasing numbers it w as found necessary to make arrangements in the adjoining room. About five o'clock Mr. Waithmaii, the chairman, en- tered, accompanied by the s'ewards, and the hon, gen- tlemen invited. Among these Were Mr. Whitbread, Lord Cochrane, Mr. Jones Burdfitt, General Mathew, I Mr. Creevey, Colonel Wardte, Lord Ossulston, Colonel I Hutchinson, Mr. Madocks, Mr. Byng-, Mr. Combe, & C. & c. The conduct of tlie Honie of Commons was canvassed at this meeting with a boldness which is scarcely surpassed in the speech and arguments ot Sir Francis Burdctt. Mr. Waithman's speech was followed by addresses from Mr. Wititbread, Mr. Wardle, Mr. Byng, Lord Cochrane, Mr. Madocks, anil many other independent members of the House of Commons, who declared it to be their decided resolution to exert them- selves to the utmost in the attempt to procure a Par- liamentary Reform; and the abolition of the corrup- tions and abuses of the state. The day was spent with the utmost conviviality, and stewards being nominated for the next meeting, the company dispersed. In consequence of an application to the Lord Maybr, a meeting of the Livery of London in Common Hal!, to consider of the late " Assumption of Privilege by the Hon. the House of Commons," is appointed for Tues- day, the lsl of May. A bill is now iu its progress through the House of Commons; which, when passed into a law, cannot fail to be productive of great national benefit: It is entitled—" A bill for ascertaining the duties incumbent on the occupiers of land adjoiuing to highways and turnpike roads in England, for limiting the height of fences, planting of trees in the neighbourhood of roads, the breadth of roads, and the distance aud height of buildings adjoining thereto."

LONDON, Monday Night, April 23, 1810 Letters have been received by a vessel which arrived at Guernsey from Morlaix : tliey announce the landing of Messrs. Mackenzie; and Dickenson, who lately sailed from Plymouth to negociate an Exchange of Prisoners — They were received with every mark of respect at Morlaix, and proceeded immediately to Paris, with eveiy distinguishing mark of respect; the letters say, " that they were conducted to the Capital iu grand style." The master of an American vessel which had been condemned iu the Baltic rcached town to- day from Christiansand, in Norway. He informs us that a con- siderable number of American vessels ( about 40), had been seized and condemned in Norway, some of them it seems for having acknowledged they had been boarded by lirilisn cruisers, and others for irregularities in their papers; and in one instance it is stated a vessel was condemned, the Supe cargo having been empowered to dispose of a share of the vessel to any American citizen resident iu Russia.— We also understand, a con- siderable number of Pilot vessels had been fitted out in Norway to annoy tlie trade on the coast, three boats bearing the Pilot signals are permitted to go alongside, wben a great number of men, who are secreted, spring up the side, aud by boarding carry the vessels in as prizes. This unlawful practice was daily encreasing, and even several ships had been plundered in the same manner. The Prince of Wales Packet is arrived at Falmouth from Lisbon, from which place she sailed tin the 11th iust. the mail is not expected till to- morrow.— We have received a letter of this date, but it merely mentions tbat no battle had beeu fought in Portugal. Letters from Malta inform us, thai the King of Sicily was about to dispose of a large part of Crowu Land in the way of lottery. The tickets are sold at nearly 39s. sterling; some of the prizes will put the holders in possession of a principality. Portuguese Papers of the 7th instant, have been received. There has been no battle. The advanced guard of the English army is said to be at St. Felices, t he French have concentrated their foree at Sala- manca. One article, however, from Castello llodrigo, asserts that they are marching to Madrid, in conse- quence of a severe defeat sustained by their army in Andalusia. The report lhat Sir D. Dundas had tendered his resignation as Commander- in- Chief, iu consequence of a want of cordiality between him aud Minislois, is, we are assured, wholly without foundation, and that he ne ther lias expressed a desire to retire from his office, nor has any intention or disposition to do so. A letter from on board a transport in the harbour of Messina, dated February 5th, says— We have had dreadful weather here, and at Malta nine ships sunk in \ the harbour. On 1 riday night last, three ships ran on shore here, and weie dashed lo pieces: there were 200 women on board one of these ships, who were going up to Ceuta to their husbands: fortunately they were ail saved." Dutch papers to the 17th instant are received; they repeat the report lately mentioned in jthe Paris prints, ol an intention ou the part of the Emperor of Austria, and the Arctiduke Charles to visit that city. The vanity of Napoleon will no doubl, be gratified by the exhibi- tion of. Ins new relatives to Ins good people. An article from Berlin presents a mclaiictioly picture of the im- poverished and I alien state of Prussia. The coutribu. lions imposed by France, tlie payment ot which was secured hy the Treaty of Tilsit, are i. ot yet discharged. T he Freucli, consequently, still occupy, with uumerous forces, most of the principal fortresses, where they are to be cloatlied and subsisted at tbe expense of the State, until a final liquidation of all arrears of contribution lakes place. it was reported iu Holland I hat an estafelte had arriv ed at Amsterdam, requiring the return of Louis to Paris, lo arrange with tbe Emperor some further articles, both political and commercial, not comprised iu the treaty lately concluded; and it was very naturally feared that the addenda would render tnat dreadful in- I strument of Dutch humiliation yet more oppressive. No business d lire tbis day at the Stock Exchange, 1- . 1 1 d. b o 5 5 0 were reported, viz. Miss I'rttchards Belmont ... . Mr. John l'r, chard. Shrewsbury Anonymous, by the hands of Wm. Wood, Esq of ll.' mwid, a Donation Moses Mott, calling hims. lf a surgeon, was on Thursday last committed to oir coiluly gaol, as a rogue and vagabond. Several depredations have laUly been committed in the parish of Meole Brace, near this tov, n; a rewari of ten guineas is offered by the Association there, for the discovery of the person who stole several articles from the farm- yard and field of Mr. Hodges, on Tues- day night, the 17th iust.— See Adv. in first page. Saturday last, the Loyal Whitchurch Volunteer In- fantry were inspected by Lieut. Col Good), who de- clared them to be in a state of discipline fit to act with troops of the line. At the late Great Sessions for the county of Montgo- mery, Robert Goodwin, for a burglary in the dwelling house of David Morgan, arid Pryce Morris for sheep- stealing, received sentence of death.— Elisabeth Row lands; for stealing a £ 1 Newtown Bank note; and Matthew Francis, for stealing sheep skins, the property of Mr. Griffiths, were severally ordered to be imprison- ed aud kept to hard labour in the house of correction On Monday last,- an inquisition was taken by Mr. Geo. Wing- field, one of tbe coroners of this town, on the bndy of a new- born female child, found in a pond of water near to Onslow, and a verdict of wilful murder was returned against some person or persons to the jurors unknown.— Wc iiope that tbe perpetrator of this horrid deed will be brought to Justice, and we are informed lhat the magistrates of the town intend to offer a reward for the discovgry. of Ihe offender. An inquest was held at Coomb- hill, in Glocestershire, last week, on the body of a bastard- child, seven weeks old, found drowned in a pool near that place. Verdict wilful murder by the mother; who was in consequence committed to the county gaol in the Coroner's warrant. The proprietors of tbe Pottery Gazette, finding the undertukingattended with more responsibility, difficulty, and unp'eaSantness, than they were disposed to subject themselves to, have discontinued its publication. Mr. Curwen, Ihe Member, has received the gold medal from the Society of Arts, for planting iu one year, 1,269,000 larch and other forest trees. A carter iu the employ of Mr. Baker, of Beckley, in Sussex, has been committed to Horsham Gaol, on a charge of having maliciously poured oil of vitriol into the mouths of five valuable cart horses. At the assize and general gaol delivery for the city and county of the city of Lichfield, held before Wri- othes'ey Digbv, Esq. on Tuesday and Wednesday, William Weightman, John Neve, and James R. Jack- son, alias James Richardson, were convicted of uttering forged notes in the said city ; and on Wednesday morn- , ing, the Judge, in a solemn and impressive manner, ! pronounced sentence of death on the convicts. He admonished the unhappy men to prepare for death, and use the remaining period of their lives in endea- vouring to procure pardon from God. Weightman heard his sentence with considerable firmness ; but Neve was greatly affected, and shed tears copiously. At Bristol assizes, on Wednesday, Sir H. Lippincott, Bart, was indicted on the prosecution of Mary Milford, a young woman of 17, for the violation of her person, and, after an investigation which lasted upwards of six hours, was acquitted. The Recorder, Sir Vicary Gibbs, in summing up, made some forcible remarks on the difficulty ill some cases bolh of establishing and rebut- ting a serious charge of this kind; but here the at- tempt, it is stated, was made al noon day, in the most public thoroughfare of the city ; at the time a con- gregation was assembling together for public worship, and in a room where w indows looked into the College ; and " really," observed the Recorder, " the attempt to establish the offence stands upon such glaring impro- babilities, lhat were, it not that it is related in a Court of Justice, and the life of a fellow- creature at stake upon it, it is too gross even for ridicule to smile at." The innocence of the defendant was so fully manifest, that the Jury dispensed with the Recorder'.-; going into the mass of evidence for the defence, declaring that they had been long ago satisfied ; and without a moment's hesitation, they brought in a verdict of acquittal, to the complete satisfaction of a thronged Court, who were so elated as to testify by acclamations their approbation of the result, though it drew on them the just censure of the Recorder ; who took the opportunity of observing, that although no one could rejoice more heartily than himself at the acquittal of the defendant, of whose innocence he had no doubl, yet there was a sense of decorum due to the solemnity of a Court of Justice, which ought to have restrained their feelings from breaking forth into such tumultuous expression, of joy. The Recorder in his address to the Grand Jury on Monday, in reference to the proceedings of- the mob, ( as slated in the first page of tiiia paper) said, " 1 cannot refrain from Severn Salmon.— A hand- bill lately circulated in this town, attributes the amazing disproportion in the present price of this now luxurious article of life, to that of 20 or 30 years ago, when it sold at from Sri. to 6d. per lb; as one cause, to the erection of several weirs ( contrary to act of parliament) in different direc- tions upon the river, which are construc ed in such a way as to prevent the smallest salmon fry froin escap- ing-, as ^ Itey proceed towards the sea; and it, is a known fact that, in some, instances, fry have been taken in such quantities, that the defaulters, unable to consume or dispose of them, have been literally obliged to tlirOw them away.— Another mode of incalculable destruction, arises from the common practice of net- ting- ihe fords when the water is low, by which means the salmon spawn ( which is always deposited upon the sand and gravel in the fords) being loosened by the pel, and swept'away, becomes loot! for fish of an inferior quality, such as chub, roach, dace, biakr, flounder, & c." — As a prevention of these shameful practices, and to restore the Severn to its former abundant supply, it is . surely the duty of people of all descriptions to give every assistance in their power;, and we. are pleased to find that a subscription is, going forward for employing persons to protect the.. river, and to defray the actual expenses arising from the informations which it may become necessary to lodge against Offenders of the Act of Parliament. The following are the regulations under w hich the ' several corps of Local Militia in Great Britain are to* be assembled for training and exercise in the year 1810: Every corps to be assembled for 20 days, exclusive of I the days of arriving at, and departure from, and march-- ing to and from the place of assembly.— The whole of the serjeants, corporals,; and drummers, to be assem- bled at the head quarter) of their respective corps for 7 extra days ; being tli<* seven days next preceding the , assembling of tbe rest of the corps for exercise.— No. corps to asse- nble before the 1st of April, or subsequent to the 1st of October.— No officer, uon- cominissii ned officer, drummer, or private man, to have leave of ab sen c. c during the period of assembly, except in cases of the most urgent necessity, Saturday se'nnight, a centinel of the Royal Cheshire regiment, being on dutv within the Mill prison walls, at Plymouth, contrived to give his great coat aud musket to a French prisoner, concealed in tbe privy, and received ten guineas to aid him in making his— escape. The French prisoner marched guard- room with " the reUefj but" thT corporauUnl him lag behind, ordered him to lock- up in the I'm,. ef march, but hoor. n i :„_ i.. i-.. a r . . . . expressing the deep concern with which I witnessed the tumultuous proceedings of last evening.— What motive could the promoters of that dis- turbance have in view- ? No state of things can justify an appeal to violence, and I flatter myself th it not oue- fifth of rho- e persons who were assembled in the streets were dis- posed tu do mischief— they were drawn together, perhaps, from curiosity or from idle disposition, though ihere doubile- s were persons of desperate characters, whose delight was the commission of evil; but it is proper that the unwary should be informed of the ri., k they ran— if mischief had ensued, and I here should have been loss of life, every one, however iu* uocent his intention might bo, who was countenancing lie mob by his presence, would have been indictable for minder. An attack was made on ihe mansion- house with stones, and other hard substances— every one then looking on mirth' be said to be aiding and abetting that attack, and was amen; ble to the law fur all its const qoeuces. One would suppose no one could be found to engage in so uneqaal a contest, ior in cases of riot, every man uiay be called on lor his assistance in quot- ing it, anil if life shou! d be taken, the net is innocent, whilst every oue rioting is Subject to the severest punishment of tbe law, ai. d very few cases occur, that some feel not its weight. I trust, gentlemen, that all is now ovet ; but if any recurrence should take place, prompt measures are ready to tuppress, and the utmost rigour will beused iu punishing the del. n- quents." . STAGE- COACHES.— The Bill now before Parliament for repealing the Stage- coach Acts, and substituting other regulations, enacts, that a stage- coach with four or more horses, shall not carry more than ten outside passengers, one of them on the coach- box, three in front of the roof, and the remaining six behind. None of them to be allowed to sit ou the luggage. Stage; coaches with two or three horses to nave not more than four outside passengers. Long coaches, or double bodied coaches, to carry in all not more than sixteen passengers, including the guard. No child under seven years of age to be counted as a passenger; but if more than one, two of them to be considered as equal to one grown person. No coach, the top being more than eight foot nine inches from the ground, to c side passengers or luggage in the boot. , „ be carried ou the roofs exceeding two feet iu height.

He then sccured him for the night. The ccntiuel who had been bribed, in the bustle, made his escape, and went on to Exeter, where he was taken up and handcuffed by a party of dragoons, and sent down to the black hole of the citadel, to await ilis trial by a Court Martial for this capital offence. Thursday last, an inquisition was taken in Birming- ham on the body of George Austin, who was mortally wounded ill the belly on Sunday night, the 15th Instant, with a sword, by Charles Ellis, which he drew from a cane. The unfortunate man languished till Thursday, and then died. After a long investigation, the jury returned a verdict of wilful murder against the said Char'es Ellis, who was in consequence committed by the coroner to Warwick gaol, to take his trial at the next assizes for the same. The number of Newspaper stamps for England, Scotland, and Wales, issued from the Stamp Office, ( the account made up for one year endin. in 1809) amounted to upwards of twenty millious and a half. When the advertisement duty is added to that of the stamps, we inav readily conceive these useful vehicles of knowledge and entertainment bring to the revenue a very handsome sum.

RaaU- Bdl.— T he Bill for a- ceriaiuiug the duties incumbent on the occupiers of laud adjoining the Highways, contains the following clause :— And whereas thistles, docks, and other weeJrs, often grow on the sides of highways, and on the bauks and hedges next adjoining thereto, the seeds of which, if suf- fered to ripen and dispeise, do great injury to the adjacent lands; for toe remedy thereof, be it enacted, that it shall be lawful for tbe occupiers of inclosed lands nearest to the places where the said thistles, docks, and other weeds, are growing, aud they are hereby required, from time to time, to cut down and carry away ihe said weeds, or otherwise destroy the sauie; and if they shall not bs cut down orotlieiwjse destroyed before tbe 1st day of July in every year, or before such time as tho said weeds shall be in tbwer, tbe Surveyors surveying the parish wheieinsucb weeds grow, shall, and they are hereby required to cause such thistles, docks, and weeds, to be cut down or destroyed at the proper costs and charge of such occupiers uf the uearcst inclosed lands ; and if any such occupier shall refuse upon demand to pay such charge anil expense, the same may be recovered before any Justice of tbe Peace acting for the division, who shall summon tbe parties betoie him aud tben witnesses, and summarily exa- mine into the complaint, as well by tbe oath of ttie witnesses as otherwise, aud cause such sum as shall appear to be due, as well as the costs of suit, 10 be levied by distress and sate ot the parties goods, unless the sum shall be paid within the period ot ten days, from such complaint being heaid aud j uecided. In the Bill now before Parliament, for amending the laws relative to Turnpike- roads, it is enacted tbat where any cait or waggon entitled to exemption from toll, 00 accouut oi its conveying fodder or manure, snail have paid on passing thro' a turupike- gate empty, the driver shall tie entitled to receive uack such lolls on passing tnrough the gate ioadid with fodder or 11 anure, in Ibecouise uf tiie same day.

An action was tried before a special jury al the assizes at Somerset, brought by George Balch, Esq. against Mr. Clement Poole, a gentleman of considerable property, for hunting and killing a deer which had escaped from Mr. Batch's park, at St. Audries, wherein a verdict was given for the plaintiff. This verdict shews that the opinion generally entertained, aud which has been too often acted upon, that deer which break out of a park cease to be the property of the original owner, aud tbat any gentleman has a right to hunt and kill such deer, is erroneous; the defendant's counsel did not even set up such a right on the trial. We understand enquiry into small livings is again opened ; so that, those gentlepien who, in 1808, had not au opportunity of sending statements, may now make returns of benefices under £ 150 per annum, oil application to their Ordinary.— Glocester Journal. LamDs.— The following has been published as a cer- tain remedy for preventing lambs from being killed by foxes, which we are assured has the desired effect;—• Put an ozier of any kind round the tieck of the lamb 5 for when the fox attacks him it is always by the uccls, with an intent of sucking his blood, and when he finds any obstruction to his purpose, he immediately aban- , dons it. Sir F. Burdett and the Serjeant at Arms.— The case ofTopham, Serjeant at Anns to the House of Com- mons in the teign of Charles II. it is probable will become an interesting record in the matter between the Speaker and S r Francis.— Topham executed a number of warrants against persons ior breach of privilege. He was prosecuted in the Court of King's Bench lor the same, as acting illegally.— He pleaded the jurisdic- tion of the House of Commons in answer. This pro- ceeded to a demurrer, and on several of them, viz. in the case of Jay, Verdon, Hilliard, Staples, Blyth, Nel- son. Herbert, Reading, and Harnage, the plea was over- ruled by tbe Judges, and judgment given against the Serjeant. Upon tnis, in the first of William and Mary, Topham presented a petition to the House, complain- ing that he had been a great sufferer by those prose- cutions. The House ordered Sir l'rancis Peinbertou, Chief Justice, and Sir Thomas Jones, one of the Judges, to the Bar, and they were required to accouut for thus over- ruling the plea of the jurisdiction of the House of Commons. They accordingly did proceed to explain aud justify their decision. Their arguments against the jurisdiction of the House were most forci- ble— but the two Judges were committed for tiie judg- ment tliey gave, and they lay till the prorogation, it is probable, however, that tlii3 was not long, as it hap- pened 011 the 19th of July. But what is truly curious in this case is, that Sir T. Jones, one of the Judges so committed, is the ancestot of Sir Francis Burdelt, from whom his brother takes the name of Jones, aud from whom they derive their estate in Wiltshire. MARKET HERALD.

Great bustle prevailed all Tuesday mornings in pre- paration for the appointed Meeting of the Electors of Westminster, for considering the measures to be adopted in consequence of the arrest and confinement of Sir Francis Burdett., The hustings were fixed in New Palace- yard, and at an early hour placards to the following effect were exhibited in the vicinity t> f the Hall :— " The Electors of Westminster arc requested to guard against any attempts that mav be made to produce riot and disorder of any kind ; and to be particularly careful to pro- mote a qoiet nnd peaceable disposition and demeanouv." The posse r. omitatns was also called out, and a number of extra constables were sworn in, to aid and assist in preserving the peace. About one o'clock above 3000 persons were assembled around the hustings, of. a very decent appearance in general. Mr. Sturch came first on the hustings, and was received with lowl applause ; as was the High Bailiff, who was accompa- nied by Colonel Wardle, Lord Cochrane, Mr. Wishart, & c.— The High Bailiff stated the substance of the Requisition for calling the Meeting, and professed his readiness to comply in all things to the wishes of the Electors. Mr. Sturch stated, that being deprived of a Repre- sentative, who had given so many proofs of his attach- ment to the welfare of the country, it became the Electors lo enquire into the causes of the restraint, and to consider whether any or what measures should be adopted in consequence. The Meeting had been delayed, by the wishes of those who signed the Re- quisition, till the ferment accompanying the event that caused it had subsided. The Resolutions he had to submit were, by this delay, more maturely digested.— He had no doubt, that when stated, they would have the approbation of the Meeting. That Representative was taken away by force and violence, imprisoned without trial. This proceeding was most unconsti- tutional and illegal. He was satisfied that Sir Francis Burdett would stand alone in a righteous cause, and that no violence v\ ould shake him. He deprecated all acts that could give their enemies room to charge them with what was illegal or uncon- stitutional. He moved five Resolutions':—' The first stated that the Meeting highly approved- of Sir Francis Burdett's Letter to his Constituents, the subject being of the utmost importance, and the arguments incontro- vertible.— The second, That Sir F. Burdett's conduct, in calling upon the Civil Power for the protection of his house against a miliary force, was dictated by prudence, kno- nledge of, arid confidence in, the Laws of his Country,— The third culled upon Ihe House to fsstore to the Electors their beloved Representative, and to co- operate in a Reform of Pailiament.— The fotirlh and fifth directed the Petition to be presented by Lord Cochrane, and a Letter to be sect to Sir F. Burdett. Mr. Wishart followed Mr. 8. and supported the Resolutions. lie insisted ou the obligation of the " Horse of Commons, and its Speaker, to administer justice according to the law of the lard. The Privi- leges of the Hou> e of Commons, he said, were insti- tuted for the support of the rights of the people, and not for their oppression. Upon one occasion, the House of Commons took upon themselves to declare, that, they were the sole judges in certain matters of law; and the Speaker of the House went down to the Court of King's Bench, to put a stop to some of the pro- ceedings there, which came under this head. Lord Chief Justice Holt, however, told the Speaker, that he ( Lord II.) sat there to administer justice according to the law of the land, and though he ( the Speaker) had the whole of the House of Commons in his belly, if he did not leave the Court in five minutes, he would commit hint to Newgate. In the case of Justice Reeves, for re- publishing a work tending to destroy the power of the House altogether, the Attorney- General was in- structed to prosccutei but, in this instance, how dif- ferent had been their conduct, and what that conduct was, he need not mention 5 he would only say, that their worthy Representative had been so treated by them, because his independent conduct had become dis- agreeable to the majority of them ; they were afraid that his firm and unshaken mind would at last enable bim to bring about a Reform in Parliament. He con- demned the violence ar. d outrage committed in the arrest of Sir Fiancis Burdett. The House of Commons had made itself Prosecutor, Judge, Jury, & Executive. Nothing could remedy these excesses but a Reform of the House of Commo'ns. l( c adverted to the Iraflic iu seats proved against Lord Castlereagh. tinder these circumstances, it would not be too much to petition the Kirg to dissolve a Parliament, that had lost the confidence of the People. On the Thanks of the Meeting being given to Lord Cochrane, he said, that he heartily condoled with them on the deprivation of their worthy Representative; a man, who dared to he honest in the worst of times.— lie hoped, that the dragging Sir F. Burdett from his house, would' not become a precedent ( or a future Parliament. He had observed, that he was charged with reprobating the Address' of Sir F, Burdett to his Electors ; now the fact was, that he had always upheld the justice of his argument, although he had said, that some of his expressions would have been better omit- ted, had the House of Commons consulted its own dignity more, in some of the votes it had recently given. That it was necessary the House of Commons sohuld have a right to commit persons lo prison, in some ca^ es, he admitted; but it ought not to be abused to such an extent, nor used iu any case cognizable by the laws of the land. In such cases, it was impossible that that House could act justly; since it could not examine on oath, the person accused had no right to reply, aud the accusers were also the Judges. But the principles of justice could not be destroyed by all the three parts of the Legislature combined. Whathe chiefly objected to was, tbe unconstitutional and illegal mode of tarrying the Warrant into cftect; that the military should be employed, where the. civil power ought alone to be used, by the law of the land. He had seen the streets paraded by military, but for what reason he could not tell; for he had, generally speaking, ob- sirvetl 110 disorderly conduct. He would venture to predict, that unless we received redress, and Reform of Parliament, by moderate and constitutional means, we shall soon fall' under the power of the man, who has already subjugated the whole Continent of Europe.— The best means to be employed for procuring, what all allow lobe so necessary, is by recommending to all their friends throughout the country, to petition Parliament; and none hut the enemies of the Consti- tution of their Counlry would resort to violence. Be firm, be unanimous, and Reform must come at last. t olonei Wanile said, it was the glory of his life, to call their worthy Representative, Sir Francis Burdett, his friend. That Sir Francis should call the Speaker's Warrant, a thing sni generis, he did not wonder at; and any one looking at the peregrinations it went thro' and their own indetermination as to its powers, must call it a thing sui generis. When this warrant was is- sued, they forgot that there was such a thing as a door in the way ; and when the Serjeant was stopped at the door of Sir F. Burdett's house, he looked at his War- rant, but it gave him no instructions how to act, and hp went away puzzled. ( Atau& h). He then returns with it to the Speaker, informs him of this unlooked- for circumstance, aud asks his advice ; the Speaker ° f arresting a person for an alledged breach of them. He denied . the power of the House of Commons to im- prison for a libel; and quoted the words of Lord I. V Helton, where he says, that Privilege exercised against the Law, is a high oppression to the people.— It was worth while to observe the conduct of that party in the House of Commons, called the Whigs, the Talents, or the Outs, which you please; the moment the Government starts the question, they declare they will rally rottnd it ; even that Government they have so often and so bitterly reviled. The disgraces of Walchcren and the murders of Copenhagen are all for- gotten. He concluded, that, not contented with drag- ging their worthy Representative from his house, they had flattered themselves, they would have dragged him from your hearts. ( Loud cries of No, never .') Mr. Jennings recommended a quiet and orderly de- parture from the Meeting, which, indeed, was advised by all the Speakers; in consequence of which, the Meeting then adjourned in the most orderly manner, HOUSE OF LORDS— MONDAY, APRIL 16. looks at the Warrant, sees it his own hand- writing, but is as much puzzled as the Serjeant. We find it then sent to the Privy Council for ttieir opinion, before the jiiise men of the nation, even the wise man of the East ( Marquis V\ ellesle^); but be aud the Lord Chancellor, were Doth puzzled ; it is shewn to Ihe first Lord of the Treasury, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer, ( himself a Lawyer) and he is also puzzled. But he advises the Serjeant to make out a case to the Attorney General, for his opinion, but he was as much puzzled as all the rest; aud last of all, we find our high and mighty Pri- vileges are scut to Bow- street, to determine the mode CHURCH OF ENGT. ANO. The Earl of HARROWBV presented returns of Livings in the Established Church of England, under ,£ 150. per annum. — Lord HOLLAND noticed the impropriety of calling on their Lordships to vote any large sum of money to the relief of the church at the end of the session, as was done'in the last session ; as a question of such magnitude required the con- sideiation of many important points. It might, for instance, be necessary to have a fuller return of the church income, to know the numbers of the clergy, and whether they were or were not too numerous. He wished tn say nothing that might be construed as disrespectful to the clergy; but he must say that; upon the whole, he thought the Church of England . was magnificently endowed. HOUSE OF COMMONS. The House in a Committee, to consider of the importation of sugar, he. from Guadaloupe, Mr. Rose moved a resolution, that it be expedient to permit the importation of thbtse articles from Guadaloupe, on paying tbe same fines and duties as those imported from Martinique ^- Agreed to. PARLIAMENTARY REFORM. Mr. BRAND gav'e notice, that shortly after the recess, he should bring forward a motion on- the subject of a Parliamen- tary Reform. JOHN CALK JOKES. Sir S. ROMILLY rose, pursuant to the notice he gave, to move for the Discharge of John Gale Jones. Although his Opinions, as to the legality of the imprisonment of this person, were well known, he would not move on such grounds ; but. on the ground of this person having already suffered sufficient punishment. It would be recollected, that on the 12th of March, when a motion was made for his discbarge, several members expressed a readiiiess to agree with the motion, if it came forward iu a proper manner. He hoped therefoie, ttiat his motion would not now be rijected ; and he could not conceive aiiyiolyection, but this, that it was usual for persons imprisoned by the House, to present petitions to the House, expressing contrition for the offence. He was not sufficiently acquainted with tbe practice of the House, to know whether this was the invariable rule ; but be did not imagine, that in administering criminal justice there was such a rule ot pro- ceeding, ar. d" if there was,' he did not see how it could be justified. Why should that House, or any other body, exer- cise such a dominion over men's minds ? Indeed no such thing ever existed in any, except spiritual tribunals, which had succeeded only in making hypocrites, instead of making ] converts. Suppose a man should say, that the two Honaes of Parliament were only emanations from the Monarchy of the Country : was the House, for this speculative opinion, to continue its punishment against such person, until he re- tracted those opinions ? Was the House to make that man the instrument of his own disgrace ? There was no precedent or practice for a Violation of justice. Many severe practices were dispensed with in modern times. Formerly, persons were brought to the bar of tbe House, and were obliged to drop on their knees when receiving punishment, but, for many years, this severity was done away with. Tbe person now in custody, was two months in prison. After be was in piisqn twenty days,- several members declared, if he made a submission, they would vote fur his discharge. Now, if he should not make this submission, and the House should not discharge hiui, he must remain in confinement till June or July ; and tbeu his punishment, even if at all deserved, roust be enormous. Suppose that this man conscientiously thought that his punishment was illegal, and that he would sooner remain 111 prison for any period th( ui relinquish his principles. Supposing him an obdurate heretic, would it be possible to say, thatthis was such an offence, as should subject- Win to such heavy punishment > He was sure that the House could not, in its course of practice and humanity, hold out such severity against a poor man, situated as this person now is. He concluded with moving, that John Gale Jones be biought to the bar of the House to- morroiv, to be discharged. Mr. Secretary RYUER opposed the motion. He would have no objection to the liberation of this man, if be proceeded in the ordinary mode, and assured the House of his sorrow and contrition for having incurred its displeasure. If the House discharged him without such acknowledgment, it would devi ate from n rule which had never been productive of any hard- ship, The House only required Gale Jones to say that which he did say when at the bar of that House ; and all this might be done nil bout any retracting of opinion. But this person now resisted the practice, in defiance of the au. thority of the House, which be affected to deny. For these reasons, he must resist the motion. A debate of considerable length ensued, in which the motion was supported by Lord A. Hamilton, Mr. Fuller, Lord Folk- stone, Mr. Curwen, Sir T. Tnrtou, TheMasterof the Roll; Mr. Whitbread, Mr. Canning, Mr. W. Smith, Sir J. Hall, Mr. Wilberforce, and Mr. Wardle; and opposed by the Chancellor nf Ihe Exchequer, Mr. Windham, the Solicitor General, Mr. Croker, and Mr. Bar. kes. On the division, there appeared foi- the release of Mr. Jones 112— against it 160— Majority 48.— While strangers were excluded during the division, Mr. Calcraft postponed bis motion for the ex- pulsion of Mr. Hunt till Thursday, tbe 10th May. HOUSE OF LORDS— TUESDAY, APRIL 17. Lord FRSKISE presented a bill similar to the one thrown out in the other House last session, for punishing wanton cruelty to animals. Several persons had conceived that, had that bill passed, persons might have been punished for strik- ing an animal under any circumstance. In that thev were grossly mistaken ; but that no objection of the kind might be taken to this, he had introduced a clause, by which an in- former can get nothing unless the absolute charge of malicious and wilful Cruelty be substantiated. The bill was read a first time. A person from Queen Anne's Bounty Office, brought up au account of the number of Clergymen having livings under .£ 150 per amiuin.— Ordered to lie on the table.— Adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS.

WESTMINSTER PETITION. Lord COCHRANE presented a Petition and Remonstrance from the inhabitant Householders, Electors of Westminster, complaining of tbe arrest and commitment of one of their Representatives to the Tower, requiring his release, and praying a Reform in the Representation of the People in Parliament, &<;. Sec.*— The jietition being read, the noble loid moved that it should lie on the table.— The hon. Mr. WARD could not pass this question by in silence ; the petition now presented he considered as the greatest violation whbh could be committed against the proceedings of that House ; the very title of it, " Petition arul Remonstrance," was insulting to their feeIing3, and highly derogatory to tbe dig- nity of Pailiauieut. Let that House act as it might, he did not think it could deserve any thing like tbe language used iu this Petition, nor could he for a moment entertain a motion toi its lyii- g on their table. Mr. Crecvey, Mr. Curwen, Mr. Whitbread, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Mr. Pousotibv, and Mr. W. Smith, de- tended the receiving of the Petition, it being the uniform practice of tile House ; and others, much more offensive in language, had been received. The House wouhl be doing, an act of violence to the Tights and privileges of the peopleof this count 1 y were they 10 refuse it, and there would be an eud of that great privilege of the people— the Right of Petition and expressing their Oiievaucrs thru' their Representatives, The House had upon many occasions overlooked tbe language of a petition, and attended only to the thing complaiued ot. The expressions contained in the petition did not apply to the House itself, but to the persons carrying the orders of ir into execution.— The petition vvusoi'deied to be received, aud to lie on llic table. Tbe SI'RAKEA informed the House, that he had received another notice from Sir Fiancis Burden, that he meant 10 proceed against him for signing the warrant, & c. lie then, with the permission tif lbs House, read the letter, which stated, that the Speaker having, by authority of the House, broke into his house, seized bis person, and conveyed him to • t, he Tower, he should, according to the form of the statute,. at the expiration of one month, cause a bill to be filed in tb^ Court of King's Bench against him ( the Speaker), for an arrest and false imprisonment.— The CHANCELLOR of the FXCHEQUER ' conceived, that whatever the House might be inclined to do upon this question itself, he could not but con- sider it a direct violation of the bill of rights. It was a question of very great importance, and he recommended to gentlemen to turn it in their minds.— Mr. WHITEHEAD also thought, it a question of considerable moment, but could not help observing, that in his opinion tbe right bon. gentleman and another right bon. gentleman, late a member of that House ( Mr. Yorke) had taken a very erroneous view of the bill of rights, and he bp. his part recommended a serious con- sideration of the question. MASTER GENERAL OF THE ORDNANCF.. Mr. WHITBREAD H6^ ed'- S> Ask the right hon. the Chan- cellor of the Exchequer, ' Whether the late Master General of the Ordnance ( Lord Chatham) still enjoyed that office ; he understood that in March last he had sent in his resignation, notwithstanding which lie was informed, that the noble Lord still continued to do the business of that high station, to exercise the patronage of it, and to receive the salary.— The CHANCELLOR of the EXC- HMBER replied, that undoubtedly the noble lord had tendered his resignation, but until his successor was appointed it was necessary he should do the business ; that apppointment, from various matters pressing on the consideration of Government, had been delayed; the noble lord, however, bad never since attended as a Privy Councillor, and only did the duty of the Master- General of tbe Otdnance until his successor should be appointed.— Mr. WHITRREAD considered it a gross delusion passed upon tbe House and the public, and intimated his intention of bringing it before tbe House soon after the recess. Tbe second reading of the London Wet Docks bill, was negatived without a division. HOUSE OF LORDS- WEDNESDAY, APRIL 18. The Royal Assent was given by Commission to the Local Militia Amendment, the Militia Completion Amendment, and the Royal Institution Amendment Bills.—' Adjourned to the 2d of May. HOUSE OF COMMONS. Read a first time a Bill for better regulating the Laws relating to the Settlement of tbe Poor. Mr. BANKES brought up the 5tb Report of the Committee of Public Expenditure, relating to the office of Paymaster of Marines, and the Treasurer cf the Ordnance,— Ordered, on the motion of Mr Abercrombie, a Return of all the casual- ties of the Army from 1803 to the end of 1809. Lord OS- ULSTON said he had seen a Pioclamation offering £ 500. for discovering the person who fired a pistol at an officer in the street: be had also seen that the verdict of the Coroner's Inquest held 011 the b - dy of a person who died in •' onseqnence of a woirtid he had received in Piccadilly 011 the night of the 7th intt.- was " Wilful Murder against a Life Guardsman unknown and he wished to know if any steps had been taken for the discovery of the man » ho fired that shot, or if it was intended to issne any Proclamation 011 the subject.— Mr. RYDER said steps had been taken on the part of Government to ascertain tbe fact alluded to, and also what had been the conduct of the soldiers and the populace ( lining that period ; and it was found that the military had been pelted witb stones and rmtfljl and had not fired, till several shots had been fired at tbetii froin different houses 011 the spot near which the unfort'ti^ aWrJnan fell. Ministers had not thought it advisable to'ebunse?! his Majesty to issue any Pro- clamation on the subject.— Mr. WIHTBRBAP said, the argu- ments of the right hon gent. Mr. Ryder, induced him now to submit a motion to the House, for the production of the Coroner's Verdict. He agreed to the good conduct of tbe soldiers, but they vvonld be better pleased with an enquiry, which would remove the odium under which all of them at present laboured, from the verdict against one. It might appear that the soldier who fired was provoked to do so ; but if it should be found that he had wantonly killed an innocent person, it- eouid not be contended that the good conduct of the rest would justify him.— The motion of Mr, Whitbread was. epposed on the ground of its being brought forward with- out notice; the enquiry respecting the person was still pending; it would hive the effect of persuading the country that murder had been committed, and that bis Majesty's Ministers bad been remiss in their endeavours to discover the offender ; it appeared, from enquiries already made, that the military did not file till one of tbe men had been shot through the jaw ; nor were they even then allowed to fire till a. magistrate arrived, who Ordered them tu fiie on tbe populace ; and twenty shots hatl been fired by the populace previous to one from the military. After some further obser- vations, the motion was negatived without a division. Mr. Lyttelton presented a petition from Capt. Foskett of the 15th Light Diagoons, complaining that he had met witb injurious . treatment 011 repeated occasions, from the Duke of Cumberland: one of these was, a lefusat to suffer him in 1803, t'd proceed with the regiment to Spain; his Royal Highness also threw out many insinuations' injurious to his character ; lhat he stopped his promotion ; depi ived him ol every opportunity of distinguishing himself, in the service of his King and country. Last year, the petitioner wrote to the Commander in Chief, desiiiug au investigation might take place into his conduct: and tne only answer he received was, an offer of promotion in a regiment Of infantry, which he could not acccpt. After many other statement", the Peti- tioner prayed, that the House would grant him such redress, as it sho\ ild, in its wisdom, think fit.— Mr. Lyttelton moved that the petition be laid ontlie table.— The motion, after some opposition, was agreed to. The Irish Brewery Regulation bill was read a first time. ~ Mr. WHITURBAD objected to their being allowed to make use. of colouring, for he conceived the people of Ireland had as much right to be protected'from poison as those of England. If it was to be an advantageous thing to the Brewers of Ireland, let those of England have the same advantage; if ii was not so, let them be put on on equality with the Brewers of England. He professionally knew ihe process of brewing, and the only difference was, that the body of the beer was formed from white malt, and the colnuiiug from that which is dried ; lhat it has not the same body as the other ; but the only danger in allowing colouring was, that improper ingre- dients might be introduced into it— The second reading of the bill was then postponed to Tuesday s- e'nnight. The Honse went into a Committee of Supply, when the annual sums were voted, and the Report ordered to be re- ceived on Monday se'tiuight.* The House having gone into a Committee of Ways am! Means, the CHANCETLOR of the EXCHEAUER proposed a vote of 2,261,2131. to be paid out of the surplus of the Consolidated Fund. He took that opportunity of stating to the Committee that tbe amount of the surplus of this fund for the last year year was no less than 7,019,0001. a sum nearly double that of any of the four preceding years. Also that the receipts of the Excise and Customs for the same period were consider- ably more than any of the four preceding years— s sure proof of the prosperity of our commerce, and a certain presage of ample resources to meet the public, expenditure. From this very favourable state of the public revenue, ke did not think it mould be expedient to add any further tax to the public burthens. — Adjourned till the 30th instant. Charles Cotton saileihsorue. time since from" England in the Hibernia, to succeed his Lordship as first in com- mand in the Mediterranean. BANKRUPTS- APRIL 14. J. Stevens and'E.

Death of Lord Collingwood, — We are sorry to announce the death of that valuable olficer, Vire- Admiial Lord Colliugwood, who expired on board the Ville de Paris, two days after his departure from Minorca, on his return to England for the recovery of his health, which had long been in a very reduced state, in consequence of his constant and anxious service at sea, siuce some months previous to the ever- memorable battle of Trafalgar. Our readers will re- collects that his Lordship was on that occasion second in command, and contributed, by his skill and gallantry, to complete and secure the victory already atchieved by the immortal Nelson.— For his distinguished services on that and other occasions, he was raised by his Majesty to the dignity of the Peerage, aud rewarded with a pension, which, as his Lordship had no male issue, was, at his particular request, commuted from the usual mode of settlement in remainder to the two next heirs to the title, for a provision for Lady Colling- Wood, and the two daughters of the marriage. Lord Colliugwood having continued unremittingly at sea, never took his seat ( U the House of Peers, nor revisited his family or country since his signal merits obtained the distinguished honours and rewards we have stated. His Lordship has, for a considerable time, had dis- cretionary powers from the Admiralty to return home when the state of his declining health should render it necessary; but his zeal for his country's service, and the almost daily prospect that the whole of the enemy's force from Toulon would shortly put lo sea, did not permit bim to ava l himself of the indulgence till it was unhappily too late. The Ville de Paris arrived at Gibraltar with his remains on the £ 5lh ult. Sir Vegetable Preparation FOR DESTROYING WORMS, which ought to he preserved in the Families of all Persons who value the health and welfare of their offspring. W. EDDOVVES hasju- t received a Supply of DR. DERVVENT's WORM BEVERAGE, A composition of sanative Herbs, Plant?, and Seeds, partly of British, and partly ot foreign growth. " Death has his infant train ; his bony acta Strikes. froni the Baby- cheek the rosy charm." CRAHBE. Death's powerful allies are Worms; but his principal auxiliary is Phy.- ic, which being administered to children in order to destroy those noxious animals, and being chiefty composed of deleterious and poisonous drugs, destroys ten lives where it preserves one. It never tails to injure the powers of digestion, and to induce universal debility, with all its baneful consequences. There are many cakes and powders, and various other compositions, advertised tor the pre- tended cure of worms j and these drastic doses are administered without the least regard to the delicacy ot the patient's constitution. The sole aim of he DOCTOR is to expel worms J and, if any appear, he triumphs in the shew ot success, though always attended with great danger, and sometimes with death. The faculty themselves, as a celebrated writer observes, have paid too little attention to the medical treatment of children j and in con- sequence of their superficial knowledge of these important subjects have sanctioned errors of the most fatal tendency. In an interesting and important worK on the nursing and rearing of children, lately published by the celebrated Dr. Buchan, the author says " I cannot help lamenting that confidence in worm- powders or worm - cakes is not confined to the weakest of the fair sex, but is discovered even in men ot rank and talents. I have seen, though with heart- felt concern, names of the first respectability sub- scribed to certificates of the efficacy of some of those nostrums. I am far from questioning the integrity of the persons who signed such papers ; but they certainly knew not what they did. They fancied they were only attesting a pla n matter of fact, though the thing was far beyond the possible reach of their judgement or knowledge. They had seen a medicine given to a child, and had also seen worms after- wards voided by that child. What then ? As the same effect might be produced by very dangerous ppisons, how could people, wholly ignorant ot the ingredients, tell whether the operation ascribed to them was not at the risk of the child's constitution, or of its life ?" Instead of such dangerous remedies as those alluded to by that celebrated physician in the above extract, parents are recommended to apply for Dr. Derwent's Worm Beverage, which ought to be kept in constant readiness, to be applied iu cases where it is suspected that children are troubled with worms, or are of costive and bilious habits. It contains no poisonous mineral nor deleterious drug- 5 vet notwithstanding the mildness and safety of this vegetable compo- sition, it h an effectual remedy for worms all descriptions, either in inlants or those who are arrived at y^ ars of maturity, and it expels, gently and securely, the slimy humours in which those noxious ver- » mm lie in embryo. Being as agreeable as any other palatable liquid, any child will take it, audit has been used by delicate females in- stead of tea with the happiest effect. The disorders of infants are generally occasioned by worms, diffi- cult cutting of their teeth, disorders iu their bowels, or costiveness, and in any of these cases the Worm Beverage will afford the surest relief. We cannot too often endeavour to impress upon the minds of motheis, that medicines composed of minerals or deleterious mixtures are, in the hands of the inexperienced, or unwary, extremely hazard- ous, and that where vegetable remedies arc to be found, they ought in all eases to be preferred j and happy would it be for mankind if our ablest physicians and Ijptanists would apply their splendid talents in further researches into the medical properties of plants and herbs, then might wc look forward with some degree. of hope, to the ex- clusion of mercury, antimony, and other dangerous- poisons, from the pages of our Materia iVJedical Dr. D.
