This intedngence ' was brought by the Mellish East Ind. iaman from Calcutta, but that vessel has uot yet reached England ; it. is communicated by the Cap- tain of the York, another East India man, which left St. Helena at the same time as the Mellisb, and has arrived first. The Vork has only been five weeks on the voyagev The Cork Southern Reporter of Thursday, in a second edition, says, 14 We have this moment received by express, from Cove,, New York Papers to the 12th ult. Mr. John Quincy Adams has been elected President of the United States, at the first balloting', by thirteen States out of twenty- four, lien era I Jackson received the vetes of seven, and Mr. Crawford the votes of four States. 1' Advices from Liverpool state, that the schemes there, for getting- up the price of West India and other produce, are at as complete a stand still, as the Mincing- lane speculators were here on Satur- day. No business of inlpoi tance was transacted in the House of Lords this ewming-.— The House of Com- mons met, but as there were not 40 Members present, the House adjourned. A rumour was circulated on Friday, that the . Earl of Liverpool had at length acceded to the propriety of submitting* to the demands of the Irish Roman Catholics ; that Mr. Peel had resigned ; aud that the Roman Catholi. ® question was to be brought forward as a Cabinet measure. The rumour was inculcated with a degree of zeal and industry, which from the first covered it with suspicion, but in a few hours its utter falsehood was establ ished by an authorised contradiction on the part of tlie Earl of Liverpool, and by Mr. Peel's appearing- as usual in his place ou the Treasury Bench at the sitting- of the, House of Commons. The Petition from the Chamber of Manufactures and Commerce of Birmingham, praying a reduction of duties upon the importation of iron, copper, and other metals, was presented to the House of Com- mons by Mr. Law lev, on Friday. Mr. Huskisson, President of the Board of Trade, in consequence, stated that he should on the 21st inst. submit certain resolutions to the House, with a view of affording increased facilities to commerce and navigation, in which. it would be proposed to make such a change ' « s would admit the importation of iron, copper, brass, tin, and other foreign minerals, into this country. Mr. Littleton said, he had conversed with some of the principal iron masters on the subject of a reduction of the import duty upon iron, and that they were quite content, and admitted the utility ami sound policy of a reduction taking- place. In the House of Commons, same day, the second reading- of Mr. Martin's bill to prevent bear- baiting, badger. bunting, and dog- and cock- fight- ing, was opposed by Mr. Secretary Peel and several other members, and, after a short debate, negatived by a division of 50 to 32. The Hon. Mover, Sir James Mackintosh, Mr. W. Smith, and Sir Francis Burdelt, were the principal advocates of the measure. Ou the question of a grant of £ 45,000 to defray the expenses incurred bv our endeavours to abolish the Slave Trade, Mr. Buxton inveighed in severe terms against the baseness and pcrfidiousness of some of the Continental Powers, in violating as they have done the treaties they had entered into for the suppression of that odious traffic, more especially of . the French government, which has, we fear,* but too well merited the bitter censure the hon. member pronounced upon it. Loss OF THE KENT INDFAMAN.— From the details of this dreadful catastrophe, as abstracted in our last, a hope could scarcely be indulged of any of the ninety individuals being saved when the Cambria bore away. It was therefore a gratifica- tion to find, by ll\ e arrival of ihe Cuvoline, Captain Bibby, at Liverpool, from Alexandria, that fourteen of those individuals had been rescued from a watery grave. It appears that Captain Bibby, while, on his course, discovering a ship in flames at a distance, bore down with all sail towards her, but unfortu- nately was unable to approach till , four o'clock, being two hours after tl, ie explosion had taken place. Fourteen soldie/ s of the 31st regiment were then picked up fiym pieces of masts to which they had clung. Tjfe remainder of the ninety perished with the explosion of the vessel. Several other sail bore up to the wreck, but the Caroline was the only vessel that succeeded in rendering any assistance, from the heavy sea then running. The most humane attention was shewn to the survivors by Captain Bibby. The ancient family seat , of Sir John Montague Burgoyne, Bart, at Sutton Park, three miles from Biggleswade, was entirely burnt to the ground on Wednesday night, the 2d instant.

On the ftth inst. in this town, Edward, son of Mr. Thomas Preston, of Lower Heath Gale, Prees in this county. On Saturday last, Mr. Hinton, of Edgerley, who had gone to see Mr. Wombwell's collection of wild beasts, then exhibiting in this town, had the temerity to take hold of one of the panthers by the nose and stroke his face. Not content with doing this once, he went to a friend in another part of the show for the purpose of exhibiting to him the friendly terms he was upon with the animal, and a second time took hold of its nose, when, we regret to state, the panther instantly seized him by the arm, and It was not without great difficulty he was liberated from his perilous situation by the owner of the collection ramming a large stick down the throat of the panther, which in a moment caught his other arm with his claws, the marks of which were pretty forcibly impressed thereon, whilst the arm that was in its mouth is very much lacerated. This accident will, we hope, operate as a caution to persons visiting collections of wild beasts, not to venture upon those familiarities which can alone be t » keu with impunity by their keepers.

OXFORD CIRCUIT.-— At Worcester 10 prisoners were capitally convicted, but were all reprieved; 5 were sentenced to be transported for life ; 1 to be transported for 14 years,, and 3 for 7 years.— The Commission was opened - fit Stafford last Thursday, where there were 22 prisoners for trial.— To- day the Commission will, be opened iu Shrewsbury ; the calendar contains the names of 2f> prisoners.— We purpose'giving our usual ample report of the Assize business next week — The Jurors are summoned to attend at nine o'clock to- morrow, morning.

A variety Of important business is expected to come on at Nisi PriuS. At Wilts Assizes, held at Salisbury, there were prisoners in the calendar; of whom, 21 had sentence of death recorded against them, and li received sentence of transportation. Among those for seven years, was. Mr. Thomas Flower, who bad held the responsible situation of Treasurer to the Melksham Turnpike Trust, aud was found guilty of uttering ar receipt for money, knowing it to be forged, with intent to defraud* the Trustees. There were several other charges against him of . a similar, nature.— He had left the country, and was brought back by a Bow- street Officer from Holland.-- Among the capital convicts were two culprits for the same offence ( burglary,) twin brother and sister. The select Committee of the f- louse of Commons have decided that the standing orders, iir the case of the Birmingham and Liverpool Rail- road, ought not to he dispensed with. The progress of the bili is therefore, iu all probability, arrested for the present session, as it appears that the Standing Orders of the House have not hr this case been fulfilled. Biographical Notice of the late Rev. Samuel Parr, LL. D. Dr. Samuel Parr was born at Harrow. His father was a surgeon in that place, and his paternal grand- father was Rector of Hinckley, in Leicestershire. He was at the head of Harrow School in his 14th year, and on the death of the Rev. Dr. Sumner, who strongly recommended him as his successor, he was not appointed to the Head Mastership on account of his youthful age. At Harrow was formed his friendship with the celebrated Sir William Jones and the Right Rev. Dr. Bennet, late Bishop of Cloyue; and almost all the boys in the tipper part of this school accompanied him when he removed to establish himself as a teacher at Stanmore, in Middlesex. Lie was successively Master of the Grammar Schools of Colchester and Norwich', and in 3780 received his first ecclesiastical preferment, ihe Rectory of Asterby, in the diocese of Lincoln. In the year 1785, the exchange Of Asterby for the perpetual Curacy of Hatton, brought hint into War- wickshire, where he continued to reside till the day of his deat h. The Rev. Dr. Parr was twice married', first to Jane, of the ancient House of Mauleverer, in Yorkshire, and afterwards to Mary, sister of the late Rev. James Eyre, of Solihull, Warwickshire. By his first wife he had several children, all of whom died in their infancy, except Sarah and Catharine. Of these daughters, both of whom he survived, the former was married to John Wynne, Esq. of Garthmeilio, in Denbighshire, and left two daughters, now living, Caroline and Augusta, the eldest of whom is the wife of the Rev. John Lynes, Rector of Elrnley Lovet, in Worcestershire. In addition to the small benefice before- mentioned, Dr. Parr held the living of Grafiain, in Hunting- donshire, to which he. was presented by Sir Francis Burdett. Through the kindness and interest of the present Earl of Dartmouth's Grandfather, he also obtained from Bishop Lowth, a prebend of St. Paul's Cathedral, which, though for many years of little value to him, was happily the means of secur- ing- him, to an ample degree, otium cum digriitate, in the decline of his life. He was thus indebted for all his preferment to the affection of private friends3 for though he. was animated by an ardent, but liberal and enlightened attachment to our Civil and Ecclesiastical Constitution ; though be was dis- tinguished by unparalleled learning, by gigantic strength of intellect, by the most unblemished morals, and by profound unaffected piety,— he was never patronised by the Government of his Country. This is a circumstance which many will perhaps consider explained by his own words in his admir- able work on the Character of Mr. Fox, iu which he truly states of himself, " that from his youth up- ward lie never deserted a private friend, or violated a public principle, that he was the slave of no pa- tron, and the drudge of no party, that he formed his political opinions without the smallest regard, and acted Upon them with an utter disregard, to personal emoluments and professional honours." He further adds, ( what his friends must rejoice at,) " that although for many and the best years of his life he endured very irksome toil, and suffered very galling need, he eventually united a competent fortune with an independent spirit, and that, look- ing back to this life and onward to another, he possessed that inward peace of mind which the world can neither give nor take awayNor wiil this be wondered at by those who know that his long residence at Hatton was spent by him in diligently performing all the duties of a Parish Priest, in as- sisting, advising, and befriending the poor, in the exercise of a generous hospitality, in encouraging and patronising merit, in communicating know- ledge, whenever required, from his own inex- haustible stores, in contributing, by a most exten- sive correspondence, to the general illumination of the literary world, in manifesting by his words and deeds that he cultivated a spirit of unbounded phi- lanthropy as the practical essence of our holy re- ligion, and in endeavours to promote from the pulpit, and the press whatever is most conducive to the public and private welfare of mankind. It need not be added that such a man was venerated for his wisdom and beloved for his goodness by all who had the happiness of knowing him. He accordingly died as a righteous man ought to die, in peace and charity with all men, and in a firm reliance on the precious promises of the Gospel; nor can it be doubted that, by those who are capable of appre- ciating true greatness of character, he will ever be considered not only as an ornament, to the county of Warwick, but an honour to his country and to the human race.

Sheriff's Office, March 14th, 1.825.; To the Editor of the Salopian Journal, SIR, There appeared in the Shrewsbury Chronicle of last week a statement, shewing the different sums each Parish paid per head for the support of the Poor in the Shrewsbury House of Industry for the Year ending- July, 1824. As the writer has not seen a published Account of that year,' it will oblige him and ( no doubt) many others who pay, if the author would favour them with the average' number of poor each parish had in the house for that year— what was the sum expended for maintain a ne'e j also for the establishment, and other expenses attending the same, separately stated for that year. It is supposed he must have been in possession of these facts before he made the calculations given. Q. The 4. ge ice live in.— In spite of instances of depravity, which arise from neglect of education, the present must be regarded as an age of great moral and intellectual advancement, and the effect has chiefly arisen from enlarged plans of educa- tion, for we can reason only from what we know. Thirty years have nearly elapsed since Sir Richard Phillips promulged his Interrogative Si/ stem of Teaching ; and as it gradually spread, only as the old- fashioned race of teachers passed away ; so its mature effects are now only beginning to display themselves, in the state of the public mind. To the credit of the schools in this neighbourhood, Questions without Answers, and for which Answers are to be studied and prepared by the pupils, are now generally, or partially adopted ; and hence the comparati ve perfection of young persons, in all branches of knowledge, and " the preference given to Booksellers' Shops, by classes who formerly had no enjoyment but iu the tavern or pot- house.

On the 3d inst. at Dolgellv, Merionethshire, in the 60th year of his age, the Rev. Richard Hughes, Rector of that parish, where he had, resided for about 31 years. His. unremitting attention to his parochial duties wiil be long remembered by his parishioners, as also will his active exertions as a Magistrate by the county at large. At Welsh Pool, on the 8th inst. Mrs. Maria Lloyd, daughter of the late Rev. Mr. Tamberlain, Rector of Llangyniew, Montgomeryshire, and of Llanaber, Merionethshire, aud niece, to the late Baron Perryn. The ship1 Rosalind of London, of 400 tons bur then, laden with mining machinery from the Neaih Abbey Iron Works, for Tampico and Vent' Cruz, in the Gulf of Mexico, sailed from Swansea ou Friday, week, aud nearly forty mechanics and miners pro- ceeded by the same conveyance for their different destinations in that part of the globe.

SHREWSBURY HOUSE OF INDUSTRY. COMMITTFE ROOM, OTII MARCH, 1825. HfTIE Committee appointed hy the JL Guardians and Parishioners having patiently and laboriously examined the Details, & c. of the United Establishment, the House of Industry, as well as the Circumstances of each Parish respec- tively, deem it their Duty to. the Uuited Parishes to publish the following Resolutions, unanimously agreed upon this Day : I. First, that they are determined to proceed to Parliament with the Proofs they have collected of the Ineffi ciency of the System adopted bv the United Parishes, which, instead of being one of Economy as regards the Rate- payers, has been a System of Fraud and Extravagance ever since the Establishment opened, and instead of conducing to the Industry, Morality, and Comfort of the Poor, it has been a School or Immorality, a Place of Idleness and Misery. II. That the Assertions made by certain interest- ed Individuals, that Information has been withheld by this Committee from their Opponents, is not correct. III. That, in order to afford the Parishioners generally Information on the Subjects, ONE THOUSAND COPIES OF THE REPORT of the Sub- committee be forthwith printed, which may be had at the Chronicle Office. IV. That a Sub- Committee be formed in each Parish, for the two- fold Purpose of counteracting the Designs of those who endeavour to perpetuate the universally acknowledged Evils of the present Act of Incorporation, and of collecting farther Subscriptions, to be paid, into the Hands of Mr. EATON, the Treasurer, which, in Case the Bill passes, will be returned to the respective Sub- scribers.

SIR, " Should the following meet your approbation, it may, perhaps, be acceptable to the readers of your very respectable Paper; its insertion, therefore, will oblige, Your'sy respectfully, SPERO. tVem, March, 1826'. ON FEMALE EDUCATION. Whatever real difference there nmy be between the moral or intellectual powers of the male and female mind, Nature does not seem to have marked the disfinetron so strongly as our vanity is willing to imagine: and,- after all, perhaps, education Will be found to constitute the principal superiority. It must be acknowledged, at leant, that in this article we have every advantage over the softer sex, that art and industry can possibly secure to us. The most animating examples of . Grouts and Rome are set before us, as early as we are capable of any observation ; and the noblest compositions of the ancients are given into our hands, almost as soon as we have strength to hold them : while the em- ployments of the other sex, at the same period of life, are generally the reverse of every thing that can open and enlarge their minds, or till them with just and rational notions. The truth of it is, female education is so much worse than none, as it is better to leave the mind to its natural and uninstructed suggestions, than to lead it into fulse pursuits, and contract its views by turning thein upon the lowest and most trifling objects. We seem, indeed, by the manner in which we suffer youth of that sex to be trained, to consider women agreeably to th. opinion of certain Mahometan doctors, and treat them as if we believed they have no souls; why else are they Bred only and completed to the taste Of lustful appetence; to sing, to dance, To dress, and troule the tongue, and roll the eve? MILT. This strange neglect of cultivating the femal mind, can hardly be allowed as good policy, when it is considered how much the interest of society is concerned in the rectitude of their understandings. That season of every man's life which is most susceptible of the strongest impressions, is neces earily under female direction ; as there are few instances, perhaps, in which that sex is not one of the secret springs which regulates the most import ant movements of private or public transactions. What Cato said of his countrymen, is, in one re- spect, true of every nation under the sun. " The Romans," said he", " govern the world, but it is the women that govern the Romans." There are however, circumstances, wherein no woman has power enough to control a man of spirit. If it be true, then, ( as true beyond all peradven tiire it is,) that female influence is thus extensive nothing, certainly, can be of more importance, tba to give it a proper tendency, by the assistance of well- directed education. Far am I from recom mending any attempts to render women learned yet, surely, " it is necessary they should be raise above ignorance. Such a general tincture of th most useful sciences, as may serve to free the mim from vulgar prejudices, and give it a relish for th rational exercise of its powers, might very justly enter into the plan of female erudition. That se might be taught to turn the course of their reflec tious into a proper and advantageous channel, with out any danger of rendering- them too elevated foi the feminine duties of life. In a word, I would have them considered as designed by Providence for use as well as shew, and trained up not only as women, but. as rational creatures.

This elegantly printed and tasteful Work ad dresses itself specially to the literary and curious members of the legal profession; but the quantity of rare and recondite matter brought together renders it not less interesting to intelligent reade in general. No pursuit in society presents such rich materials for anecdote of every kind, as are furnished by the Courts of Law aud legal practice yet, till the present Work, we never had the satis, faction to see them assembled. When we slate, that the collection has been made by the M ESSRS,, ROSCOE, we guarantee the public the taste, the correctness, and the general superiority of the Work, and raise it at once above the ephemeral and mercenary publications of the day ; in truth, the Book rs a classic, and will for many generations he read by old and young Law- yers, with delight and instruction; and also by ail who arc curious in the history of man, as fully developed in the history and practice of juris- prudence, and in the genius and talent of the legal profession. The Catholic Association. The " Catholic Association" have published, in he Dublin Papers, a document which throws a trong light upon the system by which they have extracted ten or eleven thousand pounds from the miserable peasantry ; or, to deal fairly with the Association, by which they have obtained ten or eleven thousand pounds from the priests. This document is a minutely detailed s ee unit of the eceipts and disbursements of fct the Rent" for the / ear ending Dec. 28, 1824; and it is really drawn up with a clearness and ( apparently) with a fairness highly creditable to the skill and* integrity of the fiscal office rs of 4< the Association," and not un- worthy of imitation by persons in higher and more respectable stations. But this by the way. The most important instruction to he derived from this financial exposition, relates to the topics which have lately been agitated with so much heat in Par- iainent, first, the objects for which the rent was collected: secondly, the question whether it was paid voluntarily or otherwise. With regard to the objects for which the rent was collected, it has been asserted by Messrs. Brougham, Hnnie, & c. and more lately by some noble lords, thai these objects were three- fold— protection from the persecutions of Orangemen, protection from the oppressive exactions of the Protestant clergy, aud he advancement of what is called Catholic Emanci- pation. Now it is very plain, that in those parls of [ rehind where Orangemen were most numerous, if as Orangemen they were necessarily persecutors, the Roman Catholics would be most desirous of protec- tion against them. It is also certain, that where the Clergy have the greatest share of the tithes, if the Clergy were as rapacious as they have been described to be, there their rapacity would be most severely felt, and securities against it would be there most eagerly purchased. 11 is no less manifest than either > f these propositions, that where the Roman Catholics Mi fie r most severely by the presence of Orangemen and the claims of the Church, in those places they must he most zealously engaged to forward the cause of Emancipation, just as w e see that the people iu Devon do not care about the Durham or Liverpool Railway, and that Lord Londonderry does not protest against tbe nuisance until it comes within a mile of his door. Now keeping these things in mind, let us urn to ( he financial statement of the Association, and ry the degree to which, in different parts of Ireland, Orange and Church persecutions are felt and dreaded, by the test which the receipts of the rent afford. To begin with those counties, in which the afflic- tion of Orangemen and Church property are least felt. In Tipperary, where Orangemen are unknow n, nd where the Church property is in a great mea sure impropriate, in other words in the hands of laymen, as the Marquis of Lansdown can * ell, the year's receipt of rent was £ 873. In Cork, where Orangemen tire as little known as in Tipperary, and where His Grace ihe Duke of Devonshire absorbs the ithes of 28 parishes, ihe year's rent amounted to £ 1500. After this the reader must be prepared for a Very liberal contribution indeed from the Ulster counties, the abode of Orangeism, and Church vultures, the scene of all mminer of oppressions practised upon the Catholics. Let us see how this matter stands in fact. £. 41 29 27 6 3 d, 0 0 0 0! 3!! In Armagh the annual collection was In Antrim it was In Tyrone it was..... In ( OrangeJ Donegal, it was. In ( more Orange J Derry...... And in Fermanagh, the focus of Orangcism, absolutely Nil!!! This must shew how far the contributors to the rent have been impelled by an experience of the persecution of Orangemen, of the rapacity of the Protestant clergy, and by a sense of the necessity of Catholic Emancipation, to tbe peaceable enjoyment of their civil rights: and it affords inferences not less certain as to the voluntary or compulsory nature of their contribution. It cannot be doubted that the Roman Catholics of Donegal, Derry, and Fermanagh are as deeply interested in the objects of the Catholic Association,- whatetef these objects arey, as the Roman Catholics of Tipperary and Cork. It is very certain that, taking them as a body, they are even richer than their brother Roman Catholics of the South of Ireland; whence then arises the comparative parsi- mony of their contributions ? This question admits of but one answer, which is this— Living in contact with a Protestant population the Northern Roman Catholics are not subject to the terrors of mot) enthusiasm, nor to the whole power of the priests, who are wise enough to know that their excommu- nications and ignominious penances cannot be tried with safety upon those Who have a refuge from them n society th. it laughs such tyranny to scorn.

In the House of Commons, on Monday, M Stuart Worthy's Game Laws Bill was warmly supported by Mr. Secretary Peel, also by Mr. J. C Pelhain, and the second reading was carried hy a majority of 82 to 26.— Mr. Hume's motion for reduction of the Army Estimates was negatived by a majority of 102 to 8!!! In the House of Lords, on Tuesday, a petition was presented from Mr. Stafford Cooke, praying their Lordships to suspend their decision on the claim to the Stafford Peerage.— Laid on the table, JURIES.— In the House of Commons, ou Wed nesduy, Mr. Secretary Peel obtained leave to bring in a Bill for consolidating the Laws relative to Juries, and for enacting regulations, so that every description of Jury should be impartially formed and also for extending the Lists of Special Jury men, so that Bankers, Merchants, aud other men of property may be included with the Freeholder [ When the Bill is printed, we shall lay an ab stract of it before our readers.] On the same evening, the Pasco- Peruvian Mining Company, and the Metropolitan Fish Company Bills, were read a second time and sent to Committees.— Mr. Hobhouse said the first company was a bubble, and Mr. Calcraft paid the same compliment to the second. At a convivial party, the other evening, among the usual routine of toasts was given, " His Ma- jesty's Ministers, to whom the country is so much indebted." A loyal and facetious wag in the corner said, < c he had not the least objection to the health of the King's Ministers, but he really thought it would be improper to tag the commentary to the toast, for instead of the country being indebted to them, the flourishing state of our resources had made them debtors to the country, and this upon their own confession, for they acknowledged that the income greatly exceeded the expenditure." The argument was unanswerable, an tithe health of Ministers was drank* " with thanks for thei" exertions in the national cause." Sir William Congreve has contracted to light St, Petersburg!! and Moscow witU for 30 ye » r » , We are authorised to state; that Mr. NICHOLAS WOOD, of Killingworth Colliery, Newcastle- upon- Tyne, a gentleman of great practical experience on the subject, and coadjutor of Mr. Stevenson, is preparing a complete TREATISE OJ* RAIL- ROADS, accompanied by a great variety of original experiments on Steam- Carriages, and hy drawings, plans, & c. The work will be ready early in April, and as Northumberland has given birth lo all the improvements on this system, Mr; Wood's Book is likely to satisfy public curiosity* A long discussion took place in the House of Commons on Friday, on the Tees and Wefcrdale Railway Bill. It was opposed by Sir H. Haidinge and others* on the ground that it was one of the wild Speculations of a passing hour; jtliai the proposed line of Railway went within a mile au< Jva, half of the Marquis of Londonderry's seat; and that though the load Could not foe seen from the mansion, '' the noise of the loco motive engines ould be heard in every room of it." Mr. Daven- port called them " infernal engines," and Lord Cavendish denounced ' 4 the infernal Railway." It as added* by Sir H. Hardinge, that the original line was planned to go through a portion of Lord Etdon's property ; but that was abandoned, because it was deemed easier to battle wilh Lord London- derry than to struggle against the Lord Chancellor. On the other hand, the measure was supported by- Lord Milton* the Members of the City of London, & c. on the assumption that the Railway would afford those additional facilities for the conveyance of coals* w hich might thereby be brought into the London market, to compete with the coals sent from the Wear and Tyne. They maintained that such measure, and the consequent competition that it was likely to produce, was calculated to educe the price of coals in the metropolis. Sir M. W. Ridley replied to Alderman Wood, that so long as the Lord Mayor and Corporation of the City of London continued their regulations on this subject, coals never could be obtained at a cheap • ate in aud about the metropolis. Mr. Lambtob opposed the Bill, and said he did so disinterestedly* because his coals were of a better quality Thau those that were to be brought along the projected Railway, and therefore would bear competition. The House divided on the Bill— it was carried, Mr. Lambton afterwards moved for the By- laws of the City of London connected with this subject, and they were ordered to be laid before the House. CANALS OF ENGLAND AND WALES England has far surpassed every other country in these important undertakings, there being ot this time 2400 miles of inland navigation in England aud Wales, exclusive of short canals of not more than five miles in length,— of others of cons. ide. raLd length, the private property of individuals,— and exclusive also of river navigations, connected with these, and extending the communication by water to every part of the kingdom. Almost the whole of these stupendous works ( still in course of extension) have been execued in about 70 years from their commencement, in 1755, at an expense of more than £ 13,000,000, raised under the sanction of Parlia- ment, by private subscriptions; and they are now source of immense wealth aud advantage to the nation. The vast quantities of coals, ore, stone, slate, timber, lime, manures, agricultural and other natural productions, and raw materials from abroad, distributed through the interior of the country by means of canals, are beyond calculation. Tbe pri » *. ipal line extends from the Thames, at London, through all the midland counties to Liverpool, s distance of 270 miles; and by means of its various collateral branches is expanded to every principal mine, and to all the great manufacturing towns on either side, to a considerable distance. From Liver- pool this line is continued across the kingdom through Lancashire and Yorkshire, by way of Leeds., to Hull and the German Ocean, a distance of 130 miles more: and visiting, either directly or indi- rectly, in its course, all the principal places of trade and manufacture in that extensive and populous district. This grand line, making a total of 400 miles in length, with the addition of 1100 miles of navigation, by means of its collateral branches, embraces nearly the whole of the trading and manu- facturing part of tbe kingdom, and opens a means of easy and cheap communication from the Thames through the interior of the country, to the two great ports of Bristol and Liverpool on the western coast, and to Hull ort the eastern side of the kingdom. TRADE OF GREAT BRITAIN.-— Two documents have been published by order of the House of Com- mons, which exhibit, in a most striking degree, the rapid increase of our commerce and manufactures The first is an account of the value, as calculated at the official rates, of all British and Irish pro- duce and manufactures exported from Great Britain in the years 1822, 1823, and 1824, ending the 10th of October in each year. From these returns, it appears that the Exports in the year 1822 were £ 45,787,389; in 1823, £ 46,201,511; and in the year 1824, £ 50,758,808, being an increase of nearly five millions in the short period of two years.— Of the Exports of the last year, the Cotton maun fur- turps rimnnn, tn K* v( l U'iT evelnttiir, fuctures alone amount to £ 26,880,937, exclusive of cotton twist and yarn of the value of £ 3,138,347. — The following- are the amounts of the othe articles of Export.— Brass and copper mauufac tures, £ 582,577. Glass aud earthenware, £ 284,3tiS Hardware aud cutlery, £ 680,986, Iron and steel wrought ami unwrought, £ 1,490,314. Linen maim factures, £ 3,174,834. Silk manufactures, £ 189,813 Biitish refined sug- ar, £ 1,1- 21,940. Woollen gr, odsv £ 6,880,200; and all other articles, £ 6,334,492 - The second document is an account of the value, as calculated at the official rates, of ail Foreign and Colonial Merchandise, exported from Great; Britain in each of the three years ended loth of October,' 1824. The total amount of these Exports was iu 1822, £ lO, P62,; i59 ; in 1823, £ 9,791,830: and in 1824, £ 10,078,- 314. The greatest portion is, of course, colonial merchandise, and it appears by the returns for the lust year, that the exports o" coffee & cocoa amounted to £ 2,413,381. Piece goodi of India, £ 1,033,733; and raw sugar, £ 1,04 !, 886. Thus it will be seen that the total of our exports for the last vear amounted to the immense sum of £ 61,737,122, nearly the whole of which was of British produce or riianufaefure. We leant from a valuable paper on Commerce, lately read by Mr. Pope at the Bristol Institution, that iu the reign of Edward III. when thecouutrieg with which England had commercial intercourse were chiefly France, Spain, Portugal, Lombardy Flanders, Brabant, and Germany, the value of ali the commodities exported from this country was estimated al £ 294,184, and of all the imports £ 38,970; suir> 3 actually less than the value of ^ oods now frequently entered in a day. In the year enditij 5th January, 1824, 11,271 Biitish and Irish, aud 4,069 foreign vessels were employed in Ihe foreign trade of the United Kingdom, the burthen of which was 2,323,855 tons, and the sailors navigating them 146,072. The recent extraordinary rise in the price of tpices, is attributed to the following cause. Th Dutch are wilh great dexterity endeavouring lo create for themselves a monopoly of spices, and that, wilh their ifsual foresight and persevering industry, they have so managed matte s as to have some prospect of accomplishing their purpose, Since they obtained possession of Sumatra they have continued to pay great attention to the cultivation of spices, which bad been introduced there; and, as we hear, tbe speculation is likely to prove a very profitable one. It is true a Ion period is requisite to bring them to perfection ( « believe cloves require thirty years); but Dutch patience is proverbial, and they will not lose the object by a premature production in the market of an inferior article. Nutmegs, cloves, and ciuna mon, arc cultivated at Trinidad 5 but the West Indies can furnish little; and as consumption increases every day wilh the astonishing increase of wealth and population, ihe supply of these articles seems inadequate to the demand. Within these few years extensive plantations of. spiceS; have been made at Prince of Wales's Island; but we cannot speak positively as to the result, or what success has attended the experiment. A vein of exceHent coal, with a large quantity of Ironstone in its immediate vicinity, has been discovered near Paris. An English Company has offered to take the ground 011 lease, and to establish a foundry upon a large scale, 011 condition of being incorporated by law for a certain number of years but hitherto the Ministers have refused iheir sane tion. Steam- engines are now extensively employed France. At Lyons and its neighbourhood upwards of 100 are in operation, and at Rouen and other manufacturing towns Ihey are iu proportion Mr. Secretary Peel's infant son was clnistened at that geuthman's house in Privy. Gardens, on Saturday — li is Royal Highness the Duke of York, with th? Earl of Whitworih and Viscountess Melville, were the sponsors.— The young gentle- man was named Frederick after his Royal god- father. HOPS— The number of acres of hops cultivated 1824, was 43,449, of which 17,745 were in the collections of Canterbury and Rochester; in Here- fordshire 11,392 ; and in Sussex 7,105.— The amount of duty ( old and. new) for 1824 was £ 258,838.5s. 3| d. GOLD COINAGE.— The value of Gold received nto His Majesty ' s Mint in 1823 was £ 617,197. ls. 9d. aud iu 1824, it was £ 4,690,516. 15s. 2d.— The gold monies coined in 1823 amounted to £ 759,' 74$ ; and ' 1S24 to £ 4,065,075. Amongst the many projects that the fertile mind jof man has devised during the last year, one of great public utility and advantage was commenced on Monday week, with the usual ceremony of lay- ing " the ^/ or/ e" ( brick) of a tunnel, at Hare- castle, in Staffordshire: to those acquainted with the country, it would seem impracticable to make a canal in that direction, but the genius of Brindley surmounted the difficulties, by " making* a tunnel through the hill of neariy 2 miles in length Through this subterraneous passage, for 60 years, immense commercial trade has been carried 01: nder circumstances that will scarcely be credited - The tunnel being too narrow for boats to pass, and there being 110 towing path for men o: r horses to draw them, they were pushed through by men Iplacing their legs against the top and sides of the tunnel; this tedious and inconvenient mode being greatly inadequate to the increased trade of the canal, the Proprietors have commenced another tunnel, parallel to, and about 300 yards distant from the former, which will render the communi cation complete; it will possess a towing path, and ali the improvements of experience and science, being- under the direction of Thomas Telford, Esq. and able superintendants. The expense is esti- mated at £ 80,000, and it will take two years to complete it. THE LION NERO AND THE DOGS— This Singular wager, for the still more singular and enormous sum of five thousand sovereigns, has been recently made at Liverpool, between two sporting characters and Mr. Womb well, the jatt> r of whom undertakes to back his Lion Nero against any six dogs in England. The original British mastiff was so celebrated among the Romans, that some of their Emperors appointed an officer in this" snug little island" of ours, to send them boms trained for the combats of the Amphitheatre ; and Dr. Cains, iu his ingenious Treatise on British dogs, speaking of mastiffs, says, that three of these animals were considered a match for a bear, and four for a lion. British mastiffs, we are told, were also trained for war, and emploved by ihe Gauls in their battles. In the reign of James the First, a similar experiment to the one now proposed was made by that Monarch, in the Tower, by which it appeared that three mastiffs conquered the lion. Two of them were disabled in the conflict, and afterwards died, but the third forced Leo to seek safety by flight. Al a Christening in the parish of Plymstock, a short time since, there were present two god- fathers and two god- mothers; two grand- fathers and two grand- mothers; three fathers and three mothers; three husbands aud three wives; I wo uncles and two aniits; two sons ami one daughter; two cousins and one grandson ; one brother and one sister; two fathers in- law and two mothers- in- law; two brolhers- in- law and two sisters in- law ; one son- in- law and one daughter- in law—- though the whole party consisted only of seven persons. On the night of the 23d ult some dogs got Into a field belonging to Mr. Meade, of Norih- Curry, and so rapacious were the animals, that they destroyed 42 out of a flock of 70 sheep, before they were beaten off. The Edinburgh Chess Club have won the first game in the match between England and Scotland-: the Scotch game was at one period of it considered desperate, but the English Club, iu their eager- ness to obtain a victory, w hich, with a iti tie caution, might have been easily secured, sacrificed a Rook. A second game has been drawn, and a third game is still pending, the moves being transmitted, as usual, by return of post. Mr. Carrothers, a Scotch Missionary in the Crimea, has been the instrument of converting a number of Tartars, who intend forming themselves into a distinct colony. A Scheik lias also embraced Christianity, and is studying, I hat he may take orders, and second the efforts of the missionaries. TOLERATION.—" Never, Sir," said theexdli lent Archbishop of Cambray to a Sovereign Prince, with whom he was one day conversing ; u never, Sir, oblige your subjects to change their religion; 110 human power can force the unpenetrable en- trenchment of the freedom of thinking-— violence can never Convince man, it can only make them hypocrites. When Sovereign's interfere in matters of religion, instead of protecting it, they enslave it. — Grant, then, to all men a civil toleration of re- ligion, not as if you approve of every difference in it as a matter of indifference, but, as if you per milted every thing with patience which God permits ; and as if you wished to conduct mankind into one opinion by leaving every man's reason unfettered, and every man's conscience free." MERCANTILE IURESPONSIBTLITY IN AME. RICA.— Such a thing as an equal division of the assei,*: of the estate of an insol vent among his cred jt- ors I have never known, nor heard of; while iuthe majority of instances of insolvency, which have fallen Under my observation, the insolvent has assumed and exercised the power of paying some creditors in full, and leaving others without a single farthing An extensive merchant, of high standing in the community, who had been unfortunate, shewed me a list which he had made out of his creditors, of whom a certain number were to be pan in full, and the remainder to take their chance | Some of the latter, I know, have never received shilling.) On my remonstrating with him on th iniquity ofstich a system, he said, that abstractedly, perhaps, it could no! be defended ; but that, he should ilot be considered a fair trader, and certainly could not expect any support from his countrymen, if be pursued any other; that when the Americans lent each olher money, or endorsed each other's notes, there was often a secret understanding that the lender should by some means or other be secured from loss, in case of accident to the borrower. He attempted to draw some subtle distinctions between one kind of debt and another; hut 1 observed the practical distinction was between those who likely to be serviceable to him in future, and those who were not, whether Americans or Foreig British merchants, who were iu the habit of signing goods to America, were to he paid in full British merchants, on the other baud, who had lent him money for years, by honouring his drafts, were to be left to their fate. Some of these, who were large creditors, have been ultimately excluded from all participation iu the es'ate, although the debt was acknowledged, and the property to be divided very expensive.— Hodgson's Letters. CURE FOR WORMS.— Dr Johns, of Manchester. ; in a letter to the Editor of the Lancet, affirms, " that almost every case of Worms, if not every case, may be cured by the internal exhibition offneiy- poiVder- ed Glass. I have ( he adds,) beeii in the habit of using this substance for many years, iu the treat- ment both of children and adults, with uniform success. In cases where symptoms of irritation in the intestinal canal exist, aud which 9re more readily to be detected by a careful observer than to be expressed iu words, I have found tbe powder of glass, given as shall presently be mentioned, accompanied by the most marked improvement of health. In children it is sufficient to give them two scruples every morning- for a week; a few grains of calomel may be included in the last paper to be taken, but this is not essential to its success. I must not here omit to mention the case of a mer- chant, whom I had under my caie in Calcutta, to whom I gave about double the quantity every morn- ing, during the time mentioned, and succeeded in removing a most distressing case of worms." ABRIDGEMENT.— The Hon. Col. J. H.
