Tt is said that, the Russian corps, which had wintered at Hirsova, Russuva, and Cztrnivada, received orders to advance to Silistria to support the operations from Kalarasch. The Turks, from Silistria, sttneked this corps and foiced it to r£ treat. with coii- mdi'table loss. It then joined the main army, which broke up from C'zcrnivada on the 13th of last month. The left column had been harassed by the Turks, who fought with great obstinacy in order to execute an operation of the greatest importance to the Garri- son of Silistria- the introduction of 1,500 head of cattle into the fortress. In this operation they suc- ceeded completely. The loss of the Russians in the action of the 17th May, is said to have amounted to 3,000 killed and wounded, amongst, whom there were many officers. The Siege of Silistria is likely to <> ecupy the Russians a considerable time. On the 8th ult. the garrisons of Rudschuk and GiUrgevo attacked the Russians before those places, nnd a very severe engagement took place, without any decisive Success on either side.— One hundred waggons of w ounded Russians were scut to Bucharest. A Russian corps which had crossed the Danube near Hirsova, was attacked and defeated by the Turks ; 2,600 wounded Russians were sent to B ailow and Gallacz. Some serious events have also taken place on the shores of the Black Sea, but all persons coming' from that quarter are strictly prohibited from speaking upon military or political events. tt is supposed that the Russian General will leave about 25,000 men before Silistrin, and advance with 50,000 uien into Servia, which has not as yet felt the miseries of war. This movement is described to be necessary, the Principalities and Bessarabia having been totally exhausted. The first grand operation Will, however, in all probability, be the siege of Silistria. It . seems quite clear, that the Principalities and Bessarabia are utterly unable to furnish supplies. All the villages on the Danube have been deserted by the inhabitants, and sickness is making great ravages. So quick and extensile arc they, tliat the inhabitants believe it to be the plague.' The Paris Papers, quoting au article from a Nuremberg Paper of the 26th ult. state that Varna has been retaken by the Russians after a horrible carnage, This is doubted ; but it is evident that the Turks are developing an extraordinary degree of energy, and are improving in discipline daily. Many foreign officers arc said to be in their service. commercial distress. He thought, however, that the vessel would have a better chance of success if she were left to' right herself. The system of factory labour, instead of manual labour, had produced great consequences j and he did not think that enough had been attributed to the great improvement in ma- chinery. Few persons also had attributed enough to the importation of labourers from Ireland. A greater number of Irish labourers in the manu- facturing districts were out of femploy than people could imagine; and the magistrates relieved them rather thaft pass them to their parishes, reflecting that as they had contributed to the prosperity of the places, they had a right to relief when in distress. Where flic passage was. so low, and this country possessed the advantage of a legal provision for the poor, it was impossible to check the influx of Irish labourers, and this fact would suggest important improvement in the state of the law. He felt convinced that any alteration with respect to the value of the currency would be attended with the greatest evils to every class, and lie should therefore oppose it.

SHREWSBURY IFILdMBHOTS0 NOTICE TO CREDITORS. HOUSE OF COMMONS— THURSDAY. PETITION FROM BIRMINGHAM. ' Mr. BROUGHAM rose to present a petition from a Very respectable body, to whom he felt grateful for the confidence ihey had reposed in him, after a distinct statement on his part that he by no means agreed either with the prayer or the allegations on which the petition was founded. After this distinct statement of difference of opinion, and after his saying- lie would rather they should put it into the hands of some other person who, from community of opinion, would support the doctrines and prayer of the petition— they were pleased to say that they were willing he should present the petition to the house, and state the subject matter of it. It had been agreed to at a numerous meeting of manufacturers, artizans, and other inhabitants of Birmingham, and was signed by 8000 persons without solicitation. They contended that the distress which now prevailed not only had reference to the poorer classes of society, but spread itself generally over the whole system. This distress the petitioners ascribed to the tampering that had falien place with the currency. Their opinion was, that too much stress was laid upon . the panic which had taken place in 1825; for though it was true that a great number of failures had taken place among the bankers, yet it was no less true, that out of about seventy bankers who had failed, as many as sixty had subsequently paid 2l) s in the pound. If such were the case, he was very glad to hear it. These were some of Ihe principal features of the petition, and though he could not by any means agree with all of them, yet within certain bounds he thought that a great deal of faith might be put in their statements. Tbnt a great deal of the distress of the nation had arisen from the depreciation of the currency, by which people were now paying taxes at a rate tbnt had never been intended when Ihcy were originally imposed, was extremely likely ; but whether it oper- ated to the extent that the petitioners described was another qnestion. ' As to meddling wilh the public debt in ti. e decisive way suggested by the petitioners, such a resort must tend to a general bankruptcy of t he nation ; he could not therefore advise such a step. In rcduciug the salaries of the public functionaries' however, there could be no breach of faith; for ns those salaries had been raised during the depreciation, it was but fair now to restore them to the same, or to something like tire same footing as before He had already said that he could not agree with a great deal of the petition, and he therefore trusted that there would be no attempt to open Ihe question of the currency again. With the latter part of the petition he, however, entirely agreed, and hoped that every tiling would be done to give the people as great relief from the pressure of the taxes as might be consistent with a due regard to the public credit and the service of the state; and so far from treating this remedy lightly, the more he thought that Ihe petitioners were wrong in their observations on the tampering of the currency, the more he was inclined to listen to that part of the petition which appeared lo him to be founded on truth. Mr. Secretary IVEL observed, that whenever any change, however calculated to be ultimately beneficial, was made in the system of the currency, it must be fttt- tided in the first, instance with considerable inconvemencies. Unless government had. permitted things to remain as they were in that respect, ( hey could only adopt one of two courses, either to depreciate the standard, or to make the paper currency payable in gold. It was true that what had been called an equitable adjustment had been talked of; but he had never heard any plan devised, by which those who had become the creditors of the slate when the currency was in a depreciated state should be subjected to a proportionate reduction of their claims now that the currency was metallic. The . question, however, which Ihcy had then to decide was, if it were expedient again to unsettle the currency ? Tlie more he considered the subject, the more was he convinced that the best interests of the nation required that we should strictly adhere to the law of our currency as now established. He hoped he should never see the time when tbe restriction on cash payments should be renewed. When, however, the petitioners declared it to be expedient to increase the amount of the currency by an issue of paper, he would ask them, what they would in that case do with the exchanges? If the exchanges fell, the gold would go out of the country. What could they then do but renew tbe restriction on cash payments by the Bank ? He was quite aware that the immediate effect of an increase of our circulating medium, by an issue of paper, would be to give a stimulus to trade. But the temporary excitement thus created would be followed by a correspondent languor; and all that had been done would be to do again. Persons had contended that over- production could never exist, inasmuch as the W;. sis of mankind were insatiable; but be could by no means acquiesce in such opinion. If he took the imports and exports from the year 1818 to the present time, it would prove that there was a gradual increase of both, and as gradual an increase in the consumption of exciseablc articles. When taxation was reduced, consumption vvas increased, and the revenue often benefitted. How could the Hon. Member reconcile this with the universal stagnation he had described ? He had strong impressions that the distress arose from very different causes to those imagined by him. The transfer of trade from one place to another had very great effect, in creating temporary distress, as was seen in the distresses at SnttrilHelds occasioned by the silk trade being removed to Manchester. It was not any change in the value of the currency, but. the prosperity of Manchester that had occasioned the depression in Spitillielils. Long before the Bank Restriction, in 1797, there had been periods of long stagnation and distress, either from ovcr- excitement, over- production, or from some other causes. But at present there were several causes combined to account for the stagnation. There had been an over- production of several articles;* the bad harvest had a combined effect; the American tariff was another cause; the war in the Levant, the civil dissensions in South Americ?, and the state of Portu- gal bad also concuned to cause stagnation and The Prussian State Gazette of the 1st install^ received this day, states that a part of the Russian force now besieging Silistria, attacked a division of 5000 Turks near that city, on the 17th ult. defeated them with great loss, and compelled them to retire within the main fortress. This contradicts the Turkish account given in a preceding column. Hamburgh Papers bring accounts from Silistria to the 23d of May.— These accounts assert that the Russians were attacked by the Grand Viz'ier' himself with a great force, on tlie 17th ult. and that the Russians acknowledge a loss of nearly 1000 killed and wounded. The Great Seal is immediately to pass into new hands. Whether voluntarily or otherwise, Lord Lyndhurst MUST retire forthwith. At present it would be improper to say more, and it is unnecessary, for even before the session closes all the circumstances connccted with the intended and inevitable change in the Court of Chancery will doubtless be made public. — Mr. Peel will retire also, but perhaps not so soon. — Standard. Lord Tlturlow died at his house, Regency- square, Brighton, on Wednesday last. His lordship was in lii. s 48th year. The late Lord Thurlow, whose death we announce with sincere regret, held the offices of Clerk of the Hanaper, Patentee for making out Commissions of Bankruptcies, and Clerk of the Custodies of Lunatics and Idiots,— the whole yielding an aggregate of we believe nearly ten thousand pounds per annum, besides very extensive patronage. These are all offices in the gift of the Lord Chancellor; and in the present crisis it is an object of curiosity to ascertain how they are to be disposed of. Will they be regulated according to the arrangement recommended by several successive finance committees ; that is to say, by carrying all the fees to the consolidated fund, merely reserving their present salaries to the deputies who discharge the duties of the respective offices ? or supposing that even in these days of retrenchment and economy the offices m question shall be thought things too good to sacrifice, will Lord Lyndhurst under present circumstances be permitted to dispose of them? We shall see in a day or two. Lord Thurlow's death will probably accelerate the dis- closures and events to which we alluded on Saturday. Standard. CAMBRIDGE, June 5.— The approaching election for this University, in consequence of the elevation of SirN. C. Tindal to the Bench, occasions the highest degree of excitement. Mr. George Bankes arrived here on Friday last, and offered himself ffs a can- didate for the representation of the University. On the same day Mr. Aldcrson, Caius College, issued a circular from the Temple, soliciting the votes of the members of the senate. This gentleman has now withdrawn, in consequence of the invitation given to and accepted by Mr. Cavendish, of Trinity College. Mr. Bankes and Mr. Cavendish have each commenced an active canvass ; their committees are in full operation, both in the university and in the metropolis, and nn arduous contest is expected. The election it is thought will take placc on Tlnysday next, bat the writ not having yet arrived, the day cannot be at present fixed.— An unexpected vacancy has also occurred in the representation of the borough hy the appointment of Colonel Trench to an office in the Ordnance Department The Colonel arrived at Cambridge on Monday to solicit, the suffrages of his late constituents, nnd Mr. S. Wells has declared himself a candidate. The election will take place on Tuesday. Tuesday, the 16th, is the day fixed for the Election for the University of Cambridge.

On Wednesday, the 3d inst. as William Mason was fly- iishing near Eyton, where the bank above the river Severn slopes down to it at. an angle of about 60 degrees, and is of a considerable height, a partridge which was probably sitting in some Gorse on the side of the bank, flew out and was caught by the line lapping round its neck, and was actually brought to hand. INQUEST.— On Monday last, an inquisition was taken at Montford Bridge, near this town, before George Wingfield, Gent. Coroner, and a respectable Jury, on view of the body of Hannah Corbett; and it appeared that the deceased, who was a very old and infirm person, and very deaf, was walking on that part of llie turnpike road called tbe Grange Bank, on Saturday last, when a horse the property of Mr. Richard Vaughan, of Mytton, with a cart at its heels, ran at full speed down the bank, the animal having become restive, and broke away from the care of the driver: the off- side of the cart came in contact with the deceased, and then upset, whereby the deceased was so severely bruised and otherwise injured, as to cause her death next day: it further appeared that Mrs. Vaugban and a child w ere thrown from the cart, in consequence of which, fhe tVirnier received some injury, though not of a serious nattire; the body of the cart passed over ' the child, but providentially, indeed almost miraculously, the child escaped unhurt.— The Jury returned a verdict, that the death of Hannah Corbett was accidental, under the circumstances above stated: deodand on the horse and cart 5s. On Saturday, an inquest was held at Quat, near Bridgnorth, before Francis Pierpoint, Gent, coroner, and a respectable jury, on view of the body of a man ( a stranger) found dead in a coppice near Quat, and who appeared to have been dead some days. Ver- dict accordingly. BURGLARY.— In the night of Tuesday, the 2d inst. or early on Wednesday morning last, the dwelling- house of Mrs. Denston, near The Mount, in this town, was broken open and robbed of plate, jewellery, linen, & c. of considerable value; Mrs. Denston being on a visit in the country at that time, and the house unoccupied. By the vigilance of our Police Officers, however, a clue was obtained, which will, we think, eventually bring the robbers under the just punishment of the offended law, two at least of the suspected parties being now in custody, under circumstances that fully warrant the opinion we have expressed, and as to whom we shall probably be enabled to say more in our next publication.— While on this subject, wc think it right to give our readers generally a caution as to strangers of doubtful appearance, who may visit their respective vicinities. We know that a number of villains, . who had recently been very successful in Worcester and its vicinity, have just been arrested on their route to these parts, where they intended to have laboured, for a time at least, in their unworthy vocation : at present they are in limbo ; but there arc plenty of the same stamp now traversing the country; and the public will do well to pay attention to this caution- Committed to our County Gaol, Thomas Langford, Charles Gough, and Thomas Jebb, charged with stealing a basket containing one yard and a quarter of buff nankeen, three yards of calico, one yard of printed cotton, three yards of ribbon, and various other articles, the property of Martha Lloyd, also a silk handkerchief, a pair of kid gloves, a waist ribbon, nnd other articles, the property of Elizabeth Lloyd ; Itichard Dut ies, charged with stealing a waistcoat, and. a pair of breeches, the property of John Edwards; Ann Powell, charged with having in her possession one silver watch, the property of Thomas Thorpe, knowing the same to have been stolen. 29ioc£ 0i of fftmforH.

The Clerks of Bridgnorth Market have been much engaged lately in examining the weights and measures used in that town, and also the weight of butter brought, to market; many seizures have been made and fines levied. In our Fair, yesterday, Fat Sheep averaged 5jil per lb.; strong Store Pigs sold at rather better prices than last Fair, but small ones were lower. Ellcsmere Fair, yesterday, was what farmers gene- rally denominate a very honest one, most of them keeping possession of the stock they had to sell.— What little was disposed of fetched lower prices, with the exception, perhaps, of a few small fat cattlc, suitable to the market, which sold from 5' d. to 5| d. per lb. RI'GFLF. Y GREAT HORSF. FAIR.— This celebrated fair commenced on the 1st instant. There was not the usual supply of horses, nor were the dealers so active in purchasing as on former occasions; not- withstanding which, good hunting- like nags of superior figure sold extremely well.— Many enquiries were made after the Sultan blood ; and black horses of this description with fine Piccadilly action sold for long prices. There is at present a most flattering prospect that this year will prove a " hit" both for apples and pears, in the orchards of this county ; and, if so, we suspect casks will scarcely be found in some places, to contain the liquor that will lie made. The east- erly winds which have latterly prevailed, are sup- posed to bring blight; but those whom age and experience qualify to judge the matter, assert other- wise— and when a good barking season, a kind blossom, and an easterly wind, comc together, they say, " prepare all the casks you can muster, for they will be wanting." We have had all llicse this year, and time will shew whether age and observation may not make a hit, that younkers will benefit by attend- ing to.— Hereford Journal. The Great Derby Stakes at Epsom, 50 sovs. each, 89 subscribers, were won by Mr. Gratwicke's Frederick.— The Oaks Stakes, 50 sovs. each, 79 subscribers, were won by the Marquis of Exeter's Green Mantle.— The Surrey and Middlesex Stakes, 25 sovs. each, 13 subscribers, were won by Mr Griffiths's Mosquito, beating 4 others. CURIOUS TEST OF A PREACHER'S TALENTS.— Two friends in the north were a short time sincc disputing anent the comparative talents of their respective ministers. Both at length waxed wondrous hot on the subject, till at last one of them settled the question by exclaiming with all the consciousness of victory in the dispute, at the same time addressing his opponent, " Your minister, Sir, is a perfect driveller— a down- right squeaker. When he speaks of a certain gentleman, the monarch of the nether world, he calls him in a weak tremulous voice, as if afraid to pronounce his name, ' the Deevil,' but our minister calls him ' the Devil,' at once, and more than that, Sir, he does not care a d— n for him."— Elgin Courier.

We speak this advisedly and npon delibera- tion ; and maugre the boastings of tlw braggadocio himself, and the puffings of his partizans, we repeat it, that he has not the most remote chance of being elected. Out of three thousand notices served on the Clerk of the Peace, two thousand at the least were forgeries, and of the remaining, not above two hun- dred and fifty will be qualified to vote Up to Thursday evening, being the second day, there were only sixty- three voters registered for the county, and only ninety- one presented themselves out of all those who had served notices. The attempt at manufacturing Freeholders is now found to be impossible. REGISTRATION OF FREEHOLDS. On Wednesday, tbe Assistant Barrister attended at the County Court House, Kilkenny, for the registry of freeholds. There were sixty- four applicants, out of which number only seventeen were registered up to Friday evening. In the county of Leitrim, only five ten- pound free- holders were registered on the first day, out. of fifty, whose names were called. In Cavan, thirty- eight were allowed out of fifty.. In Waterford, nineteen, principally tenants of the Marquess of Waterford, registered under the Act. Thus the day on which the Bill for the pacification of Ireland became law, is just the period from which the future historian will date her misery, agitation, and dissension. The Papists have discovered that the Elective Franchise, as at present constituted, will throw the whole of the Representation of Ireland into the hands of the Lords of the Soil and the Clergy of fhe Established Church ; that it will, in fact, make property the criterion of opinion ; and that as the Roman Catholics possess only a small portion of the propertjfoof Ireland, scarcely one of that persuasion can be returned to Parliament. This is a plain and simple statement of the facts; and the Morning Register and Evenivg Post are quite beside them- selves at the prospect. They thus express themselves. From ihe Morning Register. THE REGISTRIES.— As far as we can at present learn, authority carries a high hand indeed relative to registries. We have heard of 23 names entered for one county, and 15 for another ! We have heard of a Parish Priest whose claim Was rejected, though he held a house at £ 25 a year, which could be set at any time at twice that sum. He swore he had an interest, of £ 10 a year in the premises, and also swore that he derived in mere lodging money out of them, in one year, £ 60. He was, however, pronounced by the Assistant Barrister, to be incompetent to vote under the new Act, but that officer did not so pro- nounce until he had the insolence to call upon ttfe Priest to substantiate his allegations by a second oath! This, probably, is all for the better ! The more justice and decency are outraged in this way, the more im- perative it vvill be upon Ireland to insist upon the repeal of the abominable law which placed the con- stituency of Ireland in the power of the Assistant. Barristers. From the Evening Post. IMPORTANT.— REGISTRY OF FREEHOLDERS.— Out of 165 notices to register freeholds, in the county of Dublin, of ten- pound yearly value, but 23 were passed by the Barrister! Many, it is true, who gave notice did not appear — but these were in general supposed to have felt that they were not properly qualified. We apprehend that a new source of agitation has been opened by the Freehold Bill. The Constituencey of Ireland will probably be found to have been vesled in 32 Officers of the Crown, removable at pleasure. In such case it is unnecessary to say that the agitation will prove as universal as the dissatisfaction. Aggregate Meeting of the Roman Catholic Association. [ FROM THE STANDARD.] There was an aggregate meeting in Dublin, On Wednesday last, for the purpose of voting £ 5,000 to Mr. O'Connell, for his expenses at the approaching Clare election. It is perfectly unnecessary to say that the money was voted with the utmost liberality. This is altogether correct, but we notice the meeting only for the purpose of showing how far the measure of emancipation has conciliated the Irish Roman Catholics, and rendered them grateful to the persons by whose means it was carried. Mr. O'Connell's forgiveness of his political enenlies. 44 Davy M4Clearv, I assure you, gentlemen, is no lonoer my master. ( A lavgh. J Since my late extra- ordinary growth, I positively am as big, ns tall a man as little Davy. What a comfort to think that I am as tall as little Dai')'. ( A burst of laughter J This late act, too, has given me an elevation so as that I cannot be looked dow n upon by the great nnd wonderful Sir Aby Baby King. Is it not something to have lived to see the day w hen Abv Baby can no longer say that othe constitution lift's given him port and dimensions superior to fnine? ( Loud laughter. J It must be fairly allowed that we are both of us now ou the same " stool, and that being the case, 1 wi'l allow the illus- trious Baby to abuse me for the remainder of his life ' W nothing— that is without the cost of a reply on mv piirt. (' Lhugh.*<•>.) Placed on one stool, I never shall seek the . bene fit of a reply to the Kind's stationer ; 1 shall he Contented to be allowed the liberty merely of laughing at him. ( Great applause and laughter.)" II. Romish gratitude to the recreant Irish Protestants who supported their cause. 44 To be placed 011 a footing with such renowned personages as Davy M4Clearv and his brother Bruns- vvicker, Sir Aby Baby, is n greai thing ; but I ow n it bus not half the value of the relief we have got from the patronage of my Lord Kingston and his like. [ tteai, hearMany things annoyed nnd galled me in the struggle, but nothing went so near to setting me out of inv wits as the patronage of the Kingston tribe. Patronage, inequality, aud all have been shaken off." This is, we confess, delightful: but for the apostate meanness of the Kingston tribe, and others equally contemptible, the game of Mr O'Connell and Co. would not have succeeded. Now that his object is attained, he is very right in spurning them con- temptuously away. III. Opinion of the Duke of Wellington's conduct to Lord Anglesey. 44 1 own that nothing has filed me icith MORE INRPFABLB DISGUST than the disclosures made iu the eorrcifpondenee between the Duke aud the Noble Marquis. It has lifted a curtain, coucealing what 1 hope we are to consider as the transactions of a former slate of tbe Castle nf Dublin that are truly frightful. Let the Irish people and the English nation only look to the correspondence between Lord Anglesey and the English government. Nothing more is necessary to explain the past, or furnish a hope of the future. If Lord Anglesey were of the class of the chief governors that we have seen, what might not, for a time at least, have been the woes nnd miseries of the country. ( Hear) Iiear.)" IV. Civilities to Mr. James Daly, one of those unhappy Protestants who uniformly voted for 44 emancipation. 1' 44 It seems that there is one James Daly, of the county of Galway, and he wants to be called Lord Fandangle, or Duusprandle, or something of that sort, aud the King was afraid to go through the operation of conferring the royal nick- name! What a pity; what a shocking disaster, that the Couuemara men could not call sweet James Daly by the name of Lord Fandangle. ( Great laughter.) Ii must be admitted by all- that the case was hard with the givers of lilies and things more substantial." V. Compliments to the House of Lords. 44 1 do not, however, pretend to say that the Duke had not much merit. I he hilt of his sword manifestly came into combat with the thick skulls and lordly intoleranls in away ihe most edifying* and beneficial,. There Were 45 against ns one year, and 104 in favour of us the next. The'arouments, the logic, the reason- ing, the equity, the justice were tbe same in the two years, hut the result was so very different that the minofify swelled to a majority more remarkable than any recorded in the annals even of the two houses, (// ear, hear.) Tbe hilt of the sword or its sharp rdge when unsheathed must have been applied to some purpose to dull and ( heretofore) impenetrable noddles to prodncea metamorphosis so extraordinary," ( Great cheering.) YI. 44 Our lords the bishops." 44 Amnngsi the phenomena of the times must certainly be reckoned the tact that ten Bishops were amongst the majority of 104. Whether it was tiie hilt or ihe blade that was applied to these right reverend per- sonages is a question which we may leave to the historians of the next century, but we should never forget that hilt or blade would not have been used in this memorable year, r\ Y~ bloodlessly in any year, were it not for the rent payers. There is not a rent payer to the extent of one shilling a- year in all Ireland thai had not his share in producing the miracle which wascleaily wrought ou the ten Bishops. ( Roars of laughter.)'' Hear this Doctors, Sumners ( a pair), Ryder, Jen- kinson, Murray, Knox, Lindsay, Copplestone, and Bathurst! These are your thanks for your unheard of vote! There was one another with the apostates, but of him we speak not now— 44 he hath gone to his own place." VII. Symptoms of a stop to agitation. 44 They were the representatives at the Union of the forty- shilling freeholders amongst otheis. In their regard aud in other respects the Union compact was declared to be final and irrevocable. it is now broken in part, and I shall discharge the most jrimi- Tying duty of my life in demanding, in my place in parliament, why it should not be abrogated alto- gether. ( Cheering for sereial minutes. y' Again: 44 WE WANT POLITICAL EXCITEMENT, in order that we may insist upon our rights as Irishmen, but not ns Catholics; for within these sacred walls we have now niet probably for The last time. We must have a jiuhhc-.. plate, where all classes and creeds can mingle together. { Hear.) From ibis altar I speak to the Protestants of Ireland; from this altar I address them, and sav, do you wish to see Ireland ns she ought to be— do you wish to see a resident parliament in Dublin. _( C/ ieering.) I tell you the Parliament of Eng anrl^ is invumpetent to legislate for this country ; they have too much business of their own to do, and the fact is, that lo the parliament being situated in London, we are to attribute the impoverishment and degradation which is justly attributable to absentee- ism." Again: 44 But now that emancipation has been attained, am J to be told that history is at an end ? Is the world like an unwound clock, and has it come to a full stop? We will wind it up again. ( Hear, § laughter.)" VIII. The securities—^ compliment to Rat, Foster. 44 lie remarked upon the things called securities w hich were introduced into the Act— securities against the introduction of the judge's wig* and the corporator's mace into the Catholic chapel, though the thing that wears the wig and flourishes the mace, may cuter without the least peril to church or state The whole solicitude, he said, is about the wig and mace ; so they Hire kept from the contamination of Ihe chapel all is supposed to be safe. ( Laughter.) This, he said, was Leslie Foster's part of ihe Act, aud it is for this, be supposed, that the determination was formed to put a judge's wig ou his own sconce. ( Great laughter.) Another part of the bill related to'the suppression of the monasteries, and the gradual extermination of the friars. An attempt had been already made in Ireland to destroy these moral and excellent men bn » from ihe blood of the martyrs a fresh generation had arisen. The Jesuits were punished unhoard. Should I be in the House of Commons, at least it should be known how unjustly tbev were punished. 1 would call for a committee, not of those who voted for emancipation, but of those who had actually decided against it, and before them I should be able to prove that there did not exist upon earth a body of men more unjustly injured and more unjustly calumni- ated than the Jesuits. ( Hear, hear, hear, and cheers IX. Character of the House of Commons:— gratitude to the Rats. 44 How are 658 men to be brought together to argue upon any subject ? The thing could never be accom plished if there were not a certain inducement, a kind of oil of rhodium to attract them. It requires J ministerial Sampson to catch the foxes, and tie to. gether tbe rats of parliament." X. Lofty- mindedness of Mr. Peel and his policy. 44 He remarked that it emancipated all other Catho lies, but enacted n. new penal law specially applicabl to himself. ( Hear, hear, hear.) Though this was th case there were geirlemen ready to vow to God, that 110 tiukindness was intended to him. ( A laugh ) Mr Peel was amongst the number of the gentlemen, and in proving this proposition he made a most whimsica' distinction between personal and individual. He said the thing was not personal, though it clearly aflecte the indmdval. ( A laugh.) There was a dispute be tweeu two fish- women, and Curran used to relate tha when the vocabulary was exhausted, one ca- led th other ( pretending, probably, not in this instance to be personal) 44 an individual44 Individual," exclaime ' the outraged fish- woman, 44 I am no more an dividual than your mother." ( A roar of laughter If I- could tell my mind to Mr. Peel, 1 certainly won' have endeavoured to suggest to him, that his nic distinction indicated about as much know ledge of the English language, as Currau's fkh- woman. Mr. O'Connell, in proceeding to comment on the relief bill, said it was pretended that the nrrangement re- garding him, \ yjrs intended as a concession to the Orangemen or Brunswickers. lie contended that, ii could have been no such thing, as the principal mem- bers of that party voted with him." tVe thank M£ O'Connell for this grateful and graphic picture of the Rats. These worthy people told us that emancipation would quiet Ireland. Mr. O'Connell knot's better. The clock of sedition is still to be wound up; political excitement is still to be kept alive. The parliament of England is incom- petent fa. legislate for Ireland, and the first step to gef. rid of it is to agitate for the repeal of the Union ! O! wise and honest statesmen; who surrendered the constitution of England for such results as these ! It is i. fdeed the judgment of God that, political dis- honesty is ever attended with political blindness. LOCO- MOTIVE ENGINE. OPENING OF SHVTT- ESD RAILWAY' [ PROM THE BIRMINGHAM GAZETTE.] The opening of fhe new rail- road from Kingswin- ford to the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal with a loco- motive steanfi- eiigine, took place on Tuesday, amidst an immense concourse of spectators from the surrounding country. The entire length of the railway is three miles and one- eighth ; it commences at the colliery of the Earl of Dudley hy an inclined plane of one thousand yards in length, having an inclination of 2 feet 3- 10ths in a chain, and the carriages with coal are delivered down fhe plane in three min& tes and a half, bringing up at the same time an ciftial number of empty, carriages. The rail- road then proceeds from the foot of the inclined plane for one- mile and seven- eighths, at an inclination of lf> feet in a mile; and on this part of the rail- way the loco motive engine travels and delivers the waggons at the head of another inclined plane of five hundred yards in length, having an inclination of 2 feet. 35- IOOths in a chain. The wag- gons are passed down this plane in a similar manner to the first, in one minute and three- quarters. At the foot of this second inclined plane there is a basin 750 yards long, communicating with the Staffordshire and Worcestershire canal, parallel to which the rail- road is continued on both sides, affording the means of loading sixty boats at the same time; and over the middle of this basin is a handsome bridge of eleven arches, on which the road from YVordsley to New Inn passes. The experiments on Tuesday commenced by the passing of a train of four carriages, each loaded with tons of coal, down the first inclined plane— an operation which highly gratified the spectators from its extreme simplicity. The Loco- motive Engine, named the " Agenoria," was then attached to eight carriages, carrying 360 passengers, the weight being— The eight carriages Loco- motive engine, tender, and water 360 passengers estimated at T. c. 8 8 11 0 22 10 41 18 0 and the whole proceeded, attended by a band of music, from tbe foot of the first inclined plane to the bead of the second, and returned, being a distance of 3J miles, in half an hour, or at the rate of 71 miles per hour. The distance might have been accom- plished in much less time, but being the first experi- ment all the power of the engine was not applied. On the return of the engine and passengers, carriages laden with coal to the number of twelve, had descended the inclined plane ; these were attached to the engine with eight carriages of passengers, the weight being— 20 carriages Engine, tender, and water Coal in twelve waggons, 3| tons each,.. 360 passengers in the eight, carriages, 540 ditto on the coal carriages, and 20 ditto on the engine tender T. 21 11 42 c. Q. 0 0 920 estimated at. > 7 10 0 131 10 0 The engine fhen started with its load of 131 tons, and proceeded to the head of the second inclined plane, and the distance 1 ^ mile, was performed in 33 minutes, being at fhe rate of nearly 3i miles per hour. On arriving at the head of the inclined plane the carriages loaded with coals descended the plane. The engine next returned with the eight carriages loaded with passengers at the rate of six miles per hour; and on reaching fhe foot, of the first inclined plane, all the carriages were disengaged from the engine except the tender carriage with twenty persons on it. The engine was again scarfed, and proceeded with the tender and twenty passengers about a mile on the road, performing the trip at the rate of eleven miles per hour, although not more than half of the engine power was laid on This concluded fhe experiments ; and we are happy to add, that not the slightest accident occurred, although an immense crowd was collected about the carriages while pro- ceeding, many of whom, by hanging to them, very much impeded the progress of the engine in the second trip with the twenty carriages, indeed it was computed that in addition to the nine hundred and twenty passengers in the carriages, three hundred olliers were dragged along. The number of persons present to witness this first exhibition of a Loco- motive engine in this part of the country was immense. We observed tbe Earl of Bradford seated on the engine- carriage during its first trip, and we learn that his Lordship expressed himself much pleased with fhe extraordinary powers of the engine. J. H. Foley, Esq. M. P. for Droit- vvich, Colonel Fetherstone, and many gentlemen from the neighbourhood, and from this town, were also present The " Goddess of Industry" was likewise honoured with the attendance of a brilliant assem- blage of ladies, by whom one of the carriages, fitted up in an appropriate manner, was entirely filled. The engine was made under the superintendence of Mr. J U. Rastrick, at Stourbridge, who has bestowed no ordinary pains in its construction, so as to obviate the noise and smoke which those of original make and used in the North of England, are subject to ; and we must do him the justice to say that he has sticcecded beyond what could have been expected The noise occasioned by the escape of the steam w hen discharged from the cylinder is wholly done away with, and the smoke is scarcely more than that pro- duced by an ordinary chimney. The safety valve is much improved by a spring, so as to prevent the escape of steam from vibrations of the engine ; and another safety valve is atlded, which is entirely in- accessible to the engine- man, thus rendering the engine infallibly secure from explosion. Another very ingenious contrivance is introduced, by which the engine oils its bearings on the carriage at every revolution of the wheels. IHtscellancous EntfUigence. o Lord Wynford resigned the Chief Justiceship of the Court of Common Pleas on Friday afternoon ; and Sir N. C. Tindal was sworn in as his Lordship's suc- cessor the same evening. A new writ was moved for in the House of Com. mons on Friday, for the University of Cambridge, in conseqnence of the elevation of the Solicitor General to the Chiefship of the Common Pleas. The accounts from Glasgow, Dumfries, and other districts continue to repeat that the manufacturers are in better spirits, and anticipate progressive im provement in the state of trade. Mr. O'Connell arrived in Dublin on Tuesday, where he was most triumphantly received by the populace. One of the passengers by the Diana, Sugden, which left this port lately for New York, a miller, formerly residing in this neighbourhood, took with him three stone and a half weight of sovereigns ! His wife was so much alarmed at the thoughts of making a long voyage by sea, that she Could not., by any argument or persuasion, be induced to accompany her husband. The good man, to alleviate the pangs of separation, and to enable her to " keep the wolf from the door" in his absence, at the moment of parting, counted her out four hundred five- guinea notes !— Hull Packet. Hay- making has already commenced in the neigh- bourhood of this city, and in many parts of the county. At Roundham, near Crewkerne, a crop of young grass has been ricked in excellent condition.

WHITEHALL, JtiNE 4, F820.— The King has hern pleased to direct letters patent to be passed under fhe.

A Portsmouth Paper puts forth a visionary scheme of a " new ship canal for vessels of 400 tons, from London to Bristol;" and another for ships of 700 tons, from Old Stoke, near Oldham, to Portsmouth. Only eight millions sterling are said to lie required for the undertaking !! ! BALLOON ASCENT.— On Thursday afternoon, about half- past five, Mr. Green accomplished his promised balloon ascent at Bath : he Calculates his extreme altitude to have been 3 miles. His descent, was accomplished with much hazard, owing to the twisting of the balloon in the process of inflation, which obliged him to cut holes in the silk for the escape of the gas. He descended at a quarter past six, on Alderhatl Common* about two miles from Fordingbridge, Hants, having traversed 50 miles ill little more than 40 minutes; on tbe grappling- iron taking hold, the rope broke, and he was dragged across two fields and a turnpike- road, by which he sustained considerable injury in the right knee and wrist, and a serious fracture of. fhe thumb. THE SERIOUS MADE COIUCAL — MIS. Lushington, in her Narrative of a Journey from Calcutta to Europe, gives us the following pleasant morsel of an anecdote, the scene of which is Giarra, in Sicily: — " The village had contained 150 men, with their wives and children. From the smallness of fhe church, these were compelled to attend divine service at, different times. The women had gone anil returned first as usual, and the men occupied their places; but scarcely had they assembled, when an earthquake occurred, which destroyed the priest and the whole of the congregation— absolutely not one man in the village escaped! Mv informant added, that the poor women being left destitute ( here I expected a tale of distress), resorted to another parish to recruit for fresh husbands; ' for what,' said be, ' could they do but settle themselves again in matri- mony as soon as possible ?"' THE WANDERING MINSTREI— With respect to this individual, whose visit to Cheltenham we noticed in our last. Journal, tbe Scotsman of Saturday makes the following statement: —" We can assure our southern friends, that he is neither Captain Barclay nor any other Captain— he never appeared on the turf nor in the ring— he neVer set a squadron in the field, nor aught of sporting knows, more than a spinster; he is, in short, plain Alexander Gordon M'Donald, whilom itinerant teacher of church music in the shire of Aberdeen. He formerly- visited England, on a tour of the same description ; but as he then appeared simply as a vagrant minstrel, he got. no more encouragement, than he had a right to expect. He compiled an account of his peregrina- tions and ponderings, which he attempted to get published in this city. By contriving to throw a kind of disguise and mystery about himself— by getting it trumped through the country that, he was a sporting gentleman in disguise— that he was travelling for a wager— that, he was to lodge in the commonest houses— that he was to drink no wine— that he was to clear a certain sum of money, to be given for charitable purposes, and so on, he has raised himself into notoriety, and no doubt realized a handsome sum at the expense of the credulous part of tiie public." THE DUKF, OK ORLEANS.— The noble qualities and the exemplary conduct of the present Duke of Orleans powerfully atone for the errors of his fattier. Acquainted with all tiie anxieties of private life, frftui his youth upwards, he has not lost tbe benefit of the lesson, although raised to the most enviable situation of any Prince now existing in Europe. He escaped from France when a move boy with no more than the clothes on his back, and two pounds in his | K> cket. He earned his daily bread a? a schoolmaster in Switz- erland. Providence even decreed that that obscure life was too fortunate and favourable for the perse- cuted Prince; he was obliged to abandon those mountainous recesses; and we afterwards find hitn, under the name of Muller, in a corner of Sweden. Thence he was driven by the same unceasing perse- cution to the shores of America; and although lie resumed there bis own illustrious name, be was not on that account better treated among our Trans- atlantic brethren. But even these extraordinary ad- ventures are not tbe most remarkable portion of his romantic life. The crown of France has l> een twice tendered to the Duke of Orleans by a numerous, powerful, and active party ; nnd twice he has rejected it with disdain, and remained faithful to his legitimate sovereign and relative. Since the period of the restoration, the Duke of Orleans has led at Paris, although a private, yet a most brilliant life. His plendid mansions of fhe Palais Royal and of Neuilly are open, without distinction of peculiar favour, to the eminent men of all parties ; and not unmindful of the kindness with which he has been treated in this country, he receives our English nobility in Paris with that marked hospitality which does equal honour to his heart and to his taste. He is now arrived in tbis country to present bis eldest son the Duke of Chartres to the King, who has thus become personally acquainted with three generations<- of the Orleans family- Tbe destinies of this last, are yet. concealed in the impenetrable bosom of futurity; but we have said enough to show that they must always excite a deep and friendly interest in this country.— Court Journal. Some three or four of onr good thrifty housewives, of those economical sparing bodies who do not like to let the opportunity of saving a penny slip by when it offers, were, about a. fortnight ago, " let in" to some excellent bargains. A " manufacturer of Irish linens" took up bis quarters at one of our b" st inns, with a large pack of the genuine Milesian stuff, of his own fabrication, and attended by a servant. The master canvassed the city for orders, and the lacquey was at hand to exhibit the article, which was done up in even a more tastily and decorated manner than is usual with such goods. Its appear- ance, moreover, was that of exceeding fineness of, material, such as a regular dealer would charge at 3s. 6d. a yard at least.. However, such was the state of trade, and tiie difficulties of the tiiries, that the merchants offered to vend it at 2s. 6: 1. a yard, an " imvtense sacrifice," and we believe be succeeded in disposing of the whole of his stock at that price, except in some few instances, where a quantity was taken, upon which he made some little abatement; and he took his departure for home, promising to return shortly with a fresh supply, to accommodate the friends of his customers. However, the trader has not since made his appearance here, and for why? As is the custom, we believe, with Irish cloth, before being cut for the purposes to w hich it is to he applied, it is well boiled, and upon some of the fortunate buyers submitting their " genuine article" to this process, the glaze and stiffness all fled, and it, came out of the water, true and genuine calico- better than which is to be bought at any linen draper'sfor eight- pence a yard!— Worcester Herald Sir W. de Crespignv, Bart, on Thursday obtained, in the Court of Common Pleas, a verdict with £ 1000 damages, against Mr. Long Wellesley, for thr publi- cation of a malicious libel, imputing to him a guilty intercourse with the Miss Longs, his nieces, and the sisters of fhe late Mrs. Welleslev..

' imperial parliament. HOUSE OF COMMONS— TUESDAY. PARLIAMENTARY REFORM. The Marquis of BLANBFORD rose and said :— In pursuance, Sir, of the notice which I have given, to move this day certain resolutions upon the subject of reform in the system of our rc presentation, I rise how to slate and explain the specific grounds upon which 1 am prepared iu argue its propriety ; and in doing so 1 feel it necessary to request the indulgence of lion, members, assuring them that if, in the course of my observations, I advert, to a subject the discussion of which I am sensible is unpalatable to the greater pact of this House, 1 shall do so as tenderly as I may be able; and 1 shall urge it merely as a reason to induce those who, like myself, may apprehend mis- chief from the introduction of a new party in this House, to embrace my views, and to acquicsce in the resolutions I intend to move. But lion, members, I am persuaded, will also feel my peculiar situation, ami I will admit that, having originally rested the expediency of this measure upon special grounds, I cannot, with consistency, now cast them wholly aside, and proceed at once to the consideration of it upon grounds new and general; and no sincere fric., d of reform will, I trust, be disposed lo quarrel with me, or to refuse his support to my resolutions, if, now avowing, and ready to act upon, an enlarged and more liberal view of the whole question, I still am consistent with myself, and press the consideration of a danger not clearly impossible. I do, however, assure the House, that upon either view of the question, 1 will circumscribe my remarks to the utmost of my power, and will not trespass long upon the attention they may indulge me with ; and first, Sir, I would observe, that, in courtesy to former advocates of the measure, I would willingly have left it ill their hands, for it seems right and reasonable that those who have argued so powerfully against decayed boroughs, and proprietary influence, should go on with their own work; but, as they seem to have declined the patriotic undertaking, the convic tion I feel of its pressing necessity is too powerful for me to heed the charge of temerity in thus presuming to succeed to theii office. We shall now see who are the declaimers and who the doers in the work of parliamentary regeneration— we shall now see who arc true and steady to their purposes, and who would wish to give those purposes a long adjournment— it will now be seen who are strenuous iu their wishes to purify Parliament, and to protect the great interests of the country. The question has been now for some time laid upon the shelf— the bills and draughts of bills which have been prepared are now, from long neglect, covered with dust, anil buried in oblivion. Hon. gentlemen, the former friends and advocates of the measure may, if they please, bestow upon ministers the compliment of their silence, but I do not feel disposed to imitate their courtesy. Every day's experience proves the necessity of some measure of this sort. The country expects, I may say demands, some statutary provision for the safety of its interests — the interests of its agriculture, its trade, its manu- factures, its finance, and especially the interests of the Protestant community against the influx and increase of the Roman Catholic party. The whole internal constitution of this House has been revolu- tionized; this new state of things requires new enactments; an imperious necessity has been super- added to tlie already existing propriety of putting down the horoughmonger and his trade; our rights and our liberties are in jeopardy as long as majorities in this House are lo be obtained by buying scats and selling servicc- s; and, though I may fail on this occa- sion in establishing upon the minds of a majority of this House a conviction of this truth, I shall perse- vere in my efforts to expose the corruption and proclaim tlie danger of these practices. Sir, it may perhaps be thought that the magnitude of this question, and the splendid eloquence of its former advocates, should have deterred me from rashly embarking upon the consideration of it; but, though 1 may despair of doing it justice, I feci its importance, or rather its necessity, too strongly to leave the thing unattcmpted through a consciousness of inability ; nnd, in asserting and advocating my own peculiar views of it, 1 am fully prepared for the imputation that those views are erroneous, that my fears are groundless, and that the measures and means of reform which 1 would propose are neither called for by the exigency of the times, nor by the existence of any real danger from the projects of the Roman Catholic body. 1 speak of the body, Sir, as a large political party in the state. 1 speak not of individu- als. Of individuals of that body I would say that there is no one in this House more ready than 1 am to admit their honour and integrity ; but 1 am speak- ing of a large class and denomination of individuals— a large and powerful political party of six or seven millions of men— a party acknowledging a common head and centre of union, a spiritual sovereign, and that sovereign residing in a foreign country. In such a state of tilings, and under such an inti rmixture of foreign and domestic relations, I shall continue to think ihat it is the part of prudence to prevent the growth of Catholic power in this House. Those who may be disposed to ridicule these opinions are to be told that they are as ignorant of human nature, and the workings of party spirit, as tlicy are of the energies of the Uoinish church. As soon as gentle- men of that persuasion enter this House they \ till be found to form a party. That party vvili be considered by the Roman Catholics of Great Britain and Ireland as their real representatives— as the special defenders of their rights, tbe vindicators of their wrongs, the promoters of their wishes and tiieir hopes. This Roman Catholic parly, like all other parties, both in and out of this House, will be desirous of increasing its political strength ; and, looking to the energy of that body, its union of purpose, and extensive co- operation, 1 am convinced that, they will enter the borough- market with bitter chances and larger means of purchase than any of their competitors. Scats in this House will be bough; up by the agents of this wealthy, powerful, and enterprising body; and thus to their county strength in Ireland will be added their burgage tenure strength in this country ; and their whole number of representatives will pre- sent a well- ordered and compact phalanx, animated by one spirit, and impelled to the same measures by the same Motives and purposes. Let. it not be thought, Sir, tfcat I am disposed to contend that any immediate danger is to he apprehended from the magnitude of their numbers in this House ( though, if the reports which circulate be true, it would appear that the system which I am foretelling has already made a beginning); but I do contend that we are not bound to wait till danger threatens. 1 do contend that it is the part of prudence to devise the means of prevention and defence, and I do insist that those means are justifiable in the prospect of a possi- bility of danger. Ilut I will not dwell longer upon this topic. I feel 1 owe apologies to the House for having dilated at such length upon it, and I will now proceed to a far more important and interesting division of my subject; and 1 do so under feelings of less embarrassment and greater confidence than those I have experienced while endeavouring to enforct the view already presented. I cannot but, entertain a reasonable hope that a large portion of the members of this House will be disposed to agree with me upon general principles, even though they should not be of opinion that 1 have made out any case for tiie neces- sity of reform by the special grounds I have taken. Ii', Sir, in the days of Locke, and still later, in the days of lllackstone, this measure wire deemed expe- dient ( and 1 appeal to both these writers for support upon this point), subsequent events, and increased and increasing evi's, make the measure now a mea- suie of necessity and not of expediency. It is no longer to be tolerated that the best interests of the country, and the dearest rights of the subject, and I w ill add the most valuable privileges of this House, are to be compromised and endangered by borough contracture and sellers of scats in parliament. . 13ut let honourable members listen to the words of Locke himself upon this question :—" It being the interest aS well as the intention of the people to have a fair and equal representation, whoever brings it nearest to that is an undoubted friend to, and establisher of, the government., and cannot miss the consent and appro- bation cf the community." And again he says, " It i3 not a change from the present state, which perhaps corruption or decay has introduced, that makes an inroad upon the government, but the tendency of it to injure or oppress the people, and to set up one pa. it or party, with a distinction from and an unequal subjection of tiie rest.. Whatsoever cannot but be acknowledged to be of advantage to the society and people in general, upon just and lasting measures, will always, when done, justify itself; and whenever the people shall choose their representatives upon just and undeniably equal measures, suitable to the original frame of the government, it cannot be doubted to be the will and act of the society, who- ever permitted or caused them so to do." Put, sir, I will not now enter upon any wide survey of this question— I will not now touch upon the nature of suffrage— nor will 1 seek to determine the principle by which the right of voting should be regulated. Neither wili I enter farther upon what has been called the philosophy of representation, nor attempt, by statistical calculations, to settle how many mem- bers should be returned by the landed, how many by the monied, and how many by the trading interest. Plans for the speedier returns of members upon new elections, and for the limitation of the duration of parliament, shall form no part of my present purpose. I will confine myself to matters much more simple in themselves, and consequently more easy for statement. My wish, sir, is to witness the extinction of close and decayed boroughs, and to transfer their representa- tions ( as it may be settled hereafter) to other places. To what places, towns, or counties, and in wliat measure and proportion to each, must be left to be considered in committee. But the extinction of these proprietary seats, this burgage tenure influence, is called for by the injuries and mischiefs it inflicts on the country. Can there be any thing more mon- strous, sir, than that seven electors, headed by the parish constable ( I allude to Gatton), should send two honourable members to this house, and that two more should represent the interesting ruins and well- peopled sheepfolds of Sarum ? What reason can we discover in the nature of things, or in the principles of representation, why some honourable members in this house should have neither houses nor inhabitants to represent— why others should only represent indi- viduals— why there should be so many whose con- stituents do not exceed ten ? Can there, sir, be any thing in more open defiance of common sense and political expediency than that 354 voters should send fifty- six members to parliament ( a ninth part of the whole House of Commons) ? What cause can be found either in the mineral or the agricultural wealth of Cornwall, that it should be so prolific of honour- able members in this house, although all the popu- lation of ail the Cornish boroughs is not much greater than that of Nottingham alone. And, sir, it must remain a subject of alarm to many— of surprise to all — that, according to a calculation taken in 1815, one- half of the English and Welsh representatives in this house shouid be returned by about eleven thousand persons, and the other half by about nine, millions. Sir, this is neither the time nor the place to enter into nice verifications of facts. It is sufficient to lay grounds for future inquiry, and I believe it will then appear that I have understated the anomalies of our representation. But, Sir, the answer given to all this is—" It works well." This has been the ready reply since the time that the late Mr. Cauning's eloquence gave it currency and made it popular. " It works well!" True, it docs work very well for the jobbers in the borough- market. It does work very well for all who go on to power, and profit, and distinction by the system; and 1 dare say ministers will be the last to say it works ill. But, Sir, it works destructively for the empire at large— it works de- structively for the country and its colonies— it works against every one of the great interests of this country, against the well- being of its trade, its manufactures, its agriculture. Majorities ( and according to my views of the questions which have been carried), fatal majorities, in this House, have been largely swelled by means of this influence, and what is most mis- chievous is, the existence of such a system degrades this House in the estimation of the people. The representative body loses the respect and confidence of the body represented. It is to this cause, Sir, that the indignation of the country ascribes the success of the odious principle of free trade— a principle which, if persisted in, will spread the desolation still farther, which so fearfully prevails, and is now pressing so severely on our commerce. To this again is to be attributed the largeness of that majority which lately overthrew the constitution, and proved to the people how very little their prayers were heard or heeded. How, then, Sir, is a system so mischievous to be mended? Which are tjie most pressing of its evils? Where should the proposed reform begin? Unques- tionably in the extinction of decayed boroughs? Whether this should be effected by compensation or without compensation, and whether we should extend our inquiries to self- elected corporate bodies possess- ing the rights of franchise, will be matter for future discussion; but, Sir, vital interests are in the mean while at stake " The nation knows and feels it to be so; it feels it in all the ramifications of its commerce ; in all the elements of its wealth and greatness: it feels it in the very husbandry of its soil, the staple of its power, and prosperity ; and it feels, too, that it is not s: » fe to trust to burgage tenures and proprietary influence what should be confided to a chaster repre- sentation. The disease, no doubt, is of long standing, but the seat of it has been well ascertained, and it will require no great skill in political anatomy to remove the parts affected. They cannot be cured— they must be cut away— " immedicabile vulnus Ense reddendum, ne pars siucera truhatur." Entertaining, therefore, Sir, these sentiments, and impressed with a strong feeling that in the existing circumstances of the country ( which it would be idle for any man to seek to disguise from himself) it would be expedient for this House not to separate without evincing some disposition to take this question into its consideration at no distant period, I have thought it my duty, at this eleventh hour, to direct the atten- tion of hon. members to it; and I shall conclude my present observations by conjuring fhem to bear iu mind the ever- memorable words of Burke, as cited by Mr. Fox, " Representation ( not the unreal mockery, but the efficient substance, of representation) is the sovereign icmedy for every disorder, the infallible security against popular discontent." The noble marquis concluded by moving the fol- lowing resolutions:— " T hat there exists a class or description of boroughs, commonly called close or decayed. The Kingdom aud City of Grenada. This last beautiful possession of the Moors in Spain, previously to its conquest by the Christians under Ferdinand and Isabella, is thus described by Mr. Washington Irving:— " Upwards of eight hundred years were past and gone siuce the Arabian invaders sealed the perdition of Spain by the defeat of Don Roderick, the last of her Gothic kings. Froin the period of that disastrous event, kingdom after kingdom had been gradually recovered by the Christian princes, until the single, but powerful, territory of Grenada alone remained under the domination of the Moors. Tliis renowned kingdom was situate in the southeru part of Spain, bordering on the Mediterranean Sea, and defended on the laud side by lofty and rugged mountains, locking up within their embraces deep, rich, und verdant valleys, where the sterility of the surrounding heights was repaid by prodigal fertility The city of Grenada lay iu the centre of the king- dom, sheltered, as it were, iu the lap of the Sierra Nevada, or chain of snowy mountains. It covered two lofty hills, and a deep valley that divides them, through which Hows tbe river Darro. One of these hills was crowned by the royal palace and fortress of tlie Alhambra, capable of containing forty thou- sand men within its walls and towers. There is a Moorish tradition, that the king who built this mighty pile was skilled iu the occult sciences, and furnished himself with gold aud silver for the purpose by means of alchymy. Certainly uever was there an edifice accomplished in a superior style of barbaric magnificence; aud the stranger who, even at the present clay, wanders among its silent and deserted courts and ruined halls, gazes with astonishment at its gilded and fretted domes and luxurious decorations, stiil retaining their brilliancy aud beauty, in defiance of the ravages of time. Opposite to the hill on which stood the Alhambra was its rival bill, on the summit of which was a spacious plain, covered with houses, ai. d crowded with inhabitants. It was commanded by a fortress called the Alcazaba. The declivities aud skirts of these hills were covered with houses, to the number of seventy thousand, separated by narrow streets and small squares, according to the custom of Moorish cities. The houses had interior courts and gardens, refreshed by fountains and running streams, and set out with oranges, citrous, and pomegranates; so that, as the edifices of the city rose above each other on the sides of the hill, they presented a mingled appearance of city and grove, delightful to the eye. The whole was surrounded by high walls, three leagues in circuit, with twelve gates, and fortified by a thousand and thirty towers. Tbe elevation of the city, and the neighbourhood of the Sierra Nevada, crowned with perpetual snows, tempered the fervid rays of sum mer ; and thus, while other cities were panting with the sultry and stifling heat of the dog- days, the most salubrious breezes played through the marble halls of Grenada. The glory of the city however, was its vega, or plain, which spreads ou to a circumference of 37 leagues, surrounded by lofty mountains. It was a vast garden of delight, refreshed by numerous fountaiusj and by the silver windings of the Xenii. The labour and ingenuity of the Moors had diverted the waters of this river into thousands of rills and streams, and diffused them over the whole surfa e of the plain. Indeed, they had wrought up this happy regiou to a degree of wonderful prosperity, aud took a pride in de- corating it, as if it had been a favourite mistress. The hills were clothed with orchards and vineyards, the valleys embroidered with gardens, and the wide plains covered with waving grain. Here were seen in profusion the orange, the citron, the fig, and pomegranate, with large plantations of mulberry trees, from which was produced the finest of silk. The vine clambered from tree to tree, the grapes hung in rich clusters about the peasant's cottage, and the groves were rejoiced by the per- petual song of the nightingale. In a word, so beautiiul was the earth, so pure the air, and so serene the sky of this delicious region, that the Moors imagined the paradise of their prophet to be situate in that part of the heaven which overhung the kingdom of Greuada." fttigtcUaneoue JmteUtgntcr* wh'ch the returns cf members to parliament notoriously capable of being effected by the payment of money in the way of purchase, and frequently are so effected ; and also, another class of boroughs, in which the elective franchise is vested in so few electors, that the returns are capable of being effected by the payment of motley, in Ihe way ot bribes, to individual - lectors, and frequently are so effeoied " That the existence of such boroughs, and the continuance of such practices, are disgraceful to the character of this house, destructive of the confidence of the people, and prejudicial to the best interests of the country." Mr. O'NEIL seconded the resolutions, which were further supported bv Mr. BENETT and Mr. HUME.— Mr. PEEL opposed their adoption ; and on a division, the first, resolution was negatived by the majority of 114 to 40: the second was of course not put to the vote. EAST RETFORD, Mr. FANE'S motion, that a new writ should he issued for the election of representatives for the borough of East Retford, was negatived by a major- ity of 135 to 4d. The Game Laws' Amendment Bill was rejected by tbe House of Lords on Monday. The majority was very small, S9 supporting the measure, and 91 opposing it. In a garden between Bath aud Bristol appears Ihe following inviting announcement to thieves:— " Steal traps set in these giouuds." ADVANTAGES OF WHIPPING.— Oneofthe London Magistrates stuled on Tuesday, that siuce the plan had been adopted of compelling all young thieves and vagrants to undergo a sound private whipping two or three times, oil every occasion when they were sent to prison, the number of sucli offenders had materially decreased. In Ihe Surrey gaol, the cat o'- uiue- tails had worked miracles ; for instead of 50 or SO Juvenile thieves who were generally ! confined from Session to Session, Ihe number now scarcely ever exceeded half- a- dozen. A vessel, called the Sarah, Captain Christie, has just entered the Si. Kutherine docks, from Siucapore, with a cargo of Indian produce, of greater value than ever arrived in Europe. Upon a moderate computation, the cargo lias been estimated at upwards of £ 250,000, to which may be added £ 20,000 as the value of the ship and freight. This rich ship had a narrow escape from pirates on the voyage from St. Helena, in ) at. 29. 30. long. 40. W. She was chased for some hours on Ihe 22d of April, and was only saved by the night coming on. MAXIMS FOR HOT WEATHER.— Those who keep dogs should by all means let them have free access to water, und if possible give them ail occasional swim. Horses, too, be it recollected, ure very apl lo be thirsty iu rultry weather, and it is an act of humanity to occasionally moisten their parched mouths. Those who keep birds ought by no means to expose them to the sun ; the top of the cage should be covered with a piece of sod, some leaves, oi a thick piece of cloth or old carpet- ing. Corporal Wells, of the Queen's Bays, died last week at Caher, of the glanders, communicated lo him through a scratch ou his finger, from a diseased horse. About three weeks ago, a gentleman, who has several dogs, sent one of them that appeared to be unwell to a dog fancier, named Edwards, residing in Isabella Court, Broadwall. It had been, how. ever, but a short time in Edwards's possession when the animal slightly bit him in the thumb. He took the precaution of cauterizing the wounded part ; but, on Wednesday, that part of the hand which was bitten became painful, aud he exhibited the usual symptoms of hydrophobia; aud, although every means w ere used to alleviate his sufferings, he expired under the fatal disease. 4 pigeon fancier was shot at Mr. Coates's, Bottom House Farm, near Chalfont, St. Giles, last week, whilst iu the act of robbing a duvivhouse— his companions! however, got liini off, and have evaded discovery. A MISER.— An elderly woman, named Arabella Heurich, died about a fortnight ago, in Blandford street, Portuiau- square, whose penurious habits were of the most eccentric nature. She occupied a small room in the house of a green- grocer, who was generally induced by her to supply two pennyworth of meat from his family joint, upon which she dined. To her friends she always pleaded tbe most abject poverty, and frequently induced persons who called upon her to send out for coals and provisions, of which she appeared lo be in absolute want. She seldom allowed her apartment to be cleansed, or eveu her bed to be made. At her death, money, it is said, amounting to £ 5000, was discovered iu a cellar and cupboard which were appropriated to her use, and of which she kept the key. A quantity of gold, iu guineas aud sovereigns, was found iu several tea- kettles, aud in tiie cupboard was an immense rull of bank- notes. Several other articles of value were discovered, and between the bed and sacking a will was found, by which toe bulk of her property was bequeathed to persons living in the city.

TRUE CHARITY.— The praise is not in the deed done, but iu the manner of its doing. If a, man visit his sick friend, aud watches at his pillow for charity sake, and because of his old affection, we' approve it; but if be does it in hope of a legacy, he is a vulture, aud only watches for the carcase. — Senecu. ECCENTRICITY.— Died, at Waterford, aged 100, Edward Stokes. This eccentric individual, although very poor, was remarkable for his attachment to the rearing of dogs, birds, & c.; and to such a length did his amusement carry him, that he had in bis possession, at one time, 10 game cocks, 75 pigeons, six bull dogs, 16 bull pups, 14 blackbirds, 12 thrushes, 3d canaries, - 2G linnets, and several others of various descriptions. The Rev. William Rose Holdeli, M. A. has been licensed to the Perpetual Curacy of Oldbury, in this county, and in the diocese of Worcester, void by the death of the Rev. David Lewis ; Patron, the Rev. George Biggs, vicar of Hales Owen, in right of his Vicarage. A praiseworthy instance of lengthened servitude, on the same estate, has been recently disclosed by the death of a iabouring man, named Baxter, who lived for 85 years in the employment of the family of Mr. Thomas Bult, of Nailsburne Kingston, near this town. This faithful servant entered service on Mr. Bult's farm when he was only seven years old, and died, a few days since, aged 92.— Taunton Courier. A neat Roman Catholic Chapel was recently opened at Leek, Staffordshire. The Right Rev. Dr. Walsli preached in the morning, and the Rev. Dr. Weedall in the afternoon. Twelve Priests assisted at the ceremonies. NORTH- WEST PASSAGE PROVED rsv WHAI. ES.— Whales, which have been harpooned in the Greenland Seas, have been found in the Pacific Ocean; and whales, with some lances sticking in them ( of a kind not used by any nation now known), have been caught, both in the sea of Spitzbergeu and in Davis's Strait. The following is one of the authorities for this fact, which, of all other arguments yet offered in favour of the transpolar passage, seems to be the most satisfactory :— A Dutch East India captain, of the name of Jacob Cool, of Sardam, who had been several times at Greenland, and w as of course well acquainted with the nature of the apparatus used in the whale fishery, was informed by the Fiscal Zeeman, of India, that in the sea of Tartary there was a whale taken, in the back of which was sticking a Dutch harpoon, marked with the letters W. B. This curious circum- stance was communicated to Peter Janaz Vischer, ( probably a Greenland whaler,) who discovered that the harpoon in question had belonged to William Bamaanz, Admiral of the Dutch Greenland fleet, and had been struck into the whale in the Spitzbergen Sea. THE EXPERIMENTAL APPLE- TREE OF G/ I; LL- NITZ.— This apple- tree, at present in a healthy state, and 60 years of age, has been engrafted with no less than 330 varieties of apples since the year 1804 The first year 175 varieties were engrafted on the body of. the tree, without any order being followed. The fertility of the tree, thus laden with so many sorts of apples, has always been considerable: in 1813 it yielded 12 Altenburg bushels. In 1813 it was respected by the numerous troops who encamped around it, and regarded it with a sort of superstitious admiration. When covered with fruit, the appearance of this tree is enchanting; and, furnishing a subject of study to the horticulturist and the physiologist, it is frequently visited by the curious.— Court Journal. THE POOR LAWS.— Among the arguments of the pro- Papists none is more common than that in the times of Popery in this country, one- fourth of tlie church revenues was appropriated to the support of the poor, and as much to the repair of the Churches, & c. Nothing can be less true; on the contrary, as early as the reign of Henry the Second parishes were assessed for the repairs of Churches, and even for building subsidiary Chapels. In the reign of Edward the First, parishes were compelled to maintain their impotent poor, and to find work for the unemployed and destitute, from which the system of roundsmen takes its origin ; and yet this happened when, as the first Parliament of Henry the Fourth complained, the Church possessed one full third of all the land in the kingdom, and with tithes, oblations, offerings, and Peter's- pcnce, another third of the nation's wh. le in- come. Yet the poor were not supported in Popish times, as is plain from the periodical succession of famines, pestilences, and rebellions. In one year London, then not as large as Cork now, lost twenty thousand of its inhabitants, who died through hunger. AN IRISHMAN'S GOOD BEHAVIOUR.— At a recent trial for au assault, at a petty sessions in Ireland, the friend of one of the defendants was required to enter into securities for his keeping the peace for three years, upon which he remarked, " I'll stand lo it for a year; but for ihrie years, by the powers! I would not be bound for the priesht himself for so long a time !' We mentioned some mouths since, that an organ had been placed iu one, of the Relief Churches of Edinburgh, with the full sanction of the preacher. High offence, however, was taken at so gross an innovation on the simplicity of the Relief form of worship, and the organ was denounced. The dispute has agitated the Relief community of Scotland eveu unto its uppermost parts; and the matter was formally brought before ( he Relief Synod, which met at Glasgow last week. That body, composed of Ministers aud lay- elders, by a large majority, decreed that the organ should forthwith be put out of the chapel ; and if the preacher did not see to the immediate execution of this order, his name was to be struck from the roll of the Relief Ministers, As might be expected, the Minister has refused to obey the imperious mandate of the Synod, and is supported by his congregation ; and the harmonious schismatic may add another to the multitude of religious sects in Scotland. SURGICAL OPERATION.— The French Paper Le Globe gives an interesting account of an operation upon a patient affected with cancer, which has been transmitted by Dr. 1. Cloquet, a surgeon of considerable emiueuce, to the section of surgery iu the Academy of Sciences, at whose last sitting it appears to have excited much discussion. The great point in question is the introduction of animal magnetism, once so popular, but of late years considered as mere quackery. M. Cloquet avers that his patient, a lady of sixty four, had been for several years afflicted with an asthmatic affection, and a tumour iu the breast decidedly cancerous, by which she bad been reduced to a state of extreme debility ; that, having decided to operate upon her, M. Cliapelain, the celebrated maguetiser, was called iu in the first instance, aud, before every operation, had succeeded iu throwing the patient into a trance, during which she continued perfectly insensible lo pain and to what was going on, with the single exception that once, oil removing the lint from a part of the wouud to which it adhered, she com plained it pricked her. M. Cloquet enlarges strongly on the astonishment which the patient exhibited when, awaking aflcr eight and forty hours' trance, she found herself surrounded by her family, the operation performed, nud herself per- fectly ignorant when and how it had been done Her agitation was so great, the doctor adds, that lie was compelled to call in the magnetiser again to compose her ; aud affirms that the scene produced a very strong impresssion upon himself, l. e Globe states its intention of recurring to this extraordinary operation, towards which it admits the incredulity of the majority of the academicians, and enters into a long discussion ou the probabilities of the case, contrasting it. with those of some other patients who have undergone severe operations with apparent insensibility, but who have all taken credit lo themselves subsequently for their hardihood in bearing a degree of pain which the involuntary spasms, and contraction of feature have still proved them to be sensible of; whereas in the present case neither vanity nor any other motive can he fairly supposed to have actuated the patient in denying her sensibility to suffering, had she really fell it, at a time when, to use Mr. C.' s own ex- pression, lie " was cutting her as if she was a carcase. 1' HOUSE- STEALING.— Horse- stealing having now become so general Ihat persons keeping horses are afraid to turn them out, petitions to Parliament are being got up in many places, praying for an Act to prevent, or at least to lesseu, the practice of horse- stealing. The object of the petitions is to obtain an Act compelling the seller of every horse to produce a certificate of his having purchased or bred such horse, aud to oblige the purchaser to take a similar certificate to enable him to deliver the same to any future buyer. It is thought that a Bill which has been drawn will render it impossible for any person stealing a horse to effect a sale of it, aud consequently will prevent the practice. TOOTH POWDER.— The following is given as the correct mode of preparing the celebrated French tooth- powder, called Poudre Peruvicnne:— white sugar 36 grains, cream of tartar 75, magnesia 72, starch 72, mace 2, cinnamon 6, sulphate of quinine ( or quinia) 3, and carmine 5 grains. All these substances are reduced into a fine powder, all mixed together with gieat care ; then add four drops of oil of roses and as much oil of mint. INTERESTING TO FLORISTS.— The carnation- fancier will be glad to hear of au effectual preventive against the fly, which has hitherto proved so injurious to this beautiful flower:— Take some black pepper, grouud very fine, and dredge it lightly over the leaves and stalk whilst the dew is oa the plant. YORK SPRING MEETING.— From the circumstance that the entries for this celebrated meeting, which commenced on Monday, included all the best and most celebrated horses which the North, and, conse- quently, which England or the world, rail produce, as well as from the fineness of the weather, there was more than the usual attendance of sportsmen and noblemen. The races which excited most interest were the St. Leger Stakes, the Gold Cup, and ihe Two Year Olds. The former is of great importance, as it tries the merits of the crack favourites for the great Doucaster St. Lcger. Rowton is amiss, and did not start; and the prize was carried off by Lord Kelbume's br. c. Smolensko, Tamboff running second. On Tuesday the cup was won by Velocipede, Actaeon and Memnon paying forfeit. The two year olds sweepstakes was won by the Duke of Leeds's ch. f. by Blacklock. The course, on Tuesday, presented a display of beauty and fashion such as has seldom been seen on Knavcsmire. A great number of betting- men were in attendance, and heavy sums were pending upon the issue of the two- year olds and the cup ; the latter is described as being splendid in the extreme. Lord Fitzwilliam's stable is very poor this year, his horses being nearly all amiss. Tiie match between His Majesty's colt, the Colonel, and Colonel King's Bessy Bedlam, was not run, His Majesty's colt not being at. York. For the two year olds, Splendour was most thought of, but he was not placed. At Dringhouses and Middletllorpe the stables were full, there being nearly eighty horses in attendance. Many of the fields have been well con- tested, and the spurt, taken on the" whole, was of the first quality.— Leeds Intelligencer. On Monday night, two commercial gentlemen, Mr Joseph Gilbert and Mr. John Carlin, who were staying at the Royal Hotel, and were on most friendly terms, went out to walk together, and, after making a call or two, were on their return through Queen- street, between eleven and twelve o'clock, when Mr. Gilbert, putting- his hand into the pocket of his travelling great coat, and finding there his pistols, which he had forg- olten lo put by on coming in from his journey, and which were loaded with ball, said jokingly " let us fire a salute." He accordingly took out one of the pistols, and was in the act of cocking it, when the cock, which ( being a detonating one) had a remarkably strong spring, slipped from his hold back upon the cap, and produced instantaneous explosion, and Mr. Carlin, who stood close by him, received the charge in the left side of his abdomen. The report called the attention of the inhabitants, and Mr. John Pearce Beadle ran into the street, where he found Mr. Carlin on his knees, and Mr. Gilbert endeavouring to raise him ; and, being re- quested, assisted in conveying the wounded gentleman to the Hotel. There Dr. Magrath and Mr. John Fuge were sent for, and attended promptly, but their efforts were in vain, for the wound was mortal, and Mr. Carl in, after lingering about eighteen hours, during which time he was anxiously attended by Mr. Gilbert, expired in great agony at half- past five o'clock on Tuesday afternoon.— Plymouth Journal. MELANCHOLY EVENT.— With feelings of sincere regret we have to announce the death of the Right Hon. Henry Leeson, brother to the Earl of Miltown. Mr. Leeson had accompanied his brother and other gentlemen on a fishing party to the neighbourhood of Mullingar ; and while engaged in that pursuit on Belvidere Lake, yesterday, he happened to turn suddenly round to address Lord Miltown, by which motion a small boat in which he sat was overset, and the unfortunate gentleman never rose again. Two attendants saved themselves by clinging to the boat. Lord Miltown's servant plunged on the instant into the lake, and swam about the spot a considerable time in the vain hope of rendering assistance. The body was discovered and raised within less than an hour, and every exertion that friendship or profes- sional aid could make to restore animation was, we grieve to say, used without effect. Mr. Leeson was about 27 years of age.— Dublin Evening Post. NEW MARKET.— We learn with pleasure that a market is about to be established in the north of Marylebone parish for the supply of hay, fruit, and vegetables, to the inhabitants of the western part of the metropolis. An area of 340 by 320 feet, situated on the north side of the Portman estate, is marked out as the spot. The exact, site of the market is 100 yards from the Edgware- road, between Portman- place and Lisson- grove, and is bounded by Carlisle- street on the west, Salisbury- street on the east, Church- street on the south, and Princess- street on the north. An open space will be left on the north side of the market or the sale of hay, which will admit of two rows jf waggons. The vegetable and fruit market will consist of neat brick- built dwelling- houses and shops ; externally, a space will be left behind the houses as a yard, and an internal market will be formed beyond the yard, to consist of sheds or shops merely, without dwellings. A very consi- derable space will thus be left in the centre of the market for the sale of such articles as may be pitched in the open air without injury, as the internal area will not be covered in. For the convenience and cleansing of the market, a fountain will be raised in the middle of this space. The centre building- of tbe north front will be a public- house. The principal entrance to the market will be from Church- street, on the south ? but there will be other entrances on each side. It is not intended wholly to exclude butchers, but they are not to be allowed to kill beasts of any kind within the market. The ground upon which this market is to be built has been purchased by Mr. Wilson, who is agent to Mr. Portman ; and it is his intention, we understand, to take upon himself the whole of the speculation attendant upon this under- taking. The erection of the building's, & c. will be under the direction of Mr. Parkinson, who is the architect and surveyor to this enormous estate, which consists of 261 acres, all, with the exception of five or six, buiit upon, and principally covered with large and respectable houses. The ground upon which Covent- garden market stands measures but 310 feet by 300, so that the new market, which we believe is to be called " Portman- market," will be considerably larger than our largest London markets. It is unac- countable that a metropolis like London should depend almost entirely upon one market for a supply of fruit and vegetables, for, though there are markets where these articles are to be found mixed up with other commodities, we believe there is not one in or near London devoted as Covent- garden is to the pro- duce of the soil. There can be no doubt, therefore but that there exists almost a necessity for a further supply ; nor can there be much doubt of this new speculation being a. successful one.— Observer How TO PREPARE FOR A FLOGGING.— George S , late a lieutenant in the United States army and a native of this country, was one of the most eccentric fellows in the world. When a boy, having incurred the displeasure of his father, the latter called him to an account, and, after examining* as to the why and wherefore of his misconduct, resolved on applying the rod, now more fashionably called " hickory." But, that the punishment might have the more salutary effect, instead of inflicting it imme- diately, he gave the culprit time to reflect and chew the bitter cud of repentance, made ten times more bitter by the anticipation of what was to follow. " George," said he, " you may go for the present, but prepare yourself early to- morrow for the most severe flogging you ever had." George retired, and the next morning, bright and early, appeared before his father, to undergo the execution of bis sentence. " Take off* your coat, George," was the stern com- mand. Off' went the coat, and the father, standing with the well- prepared hickory in his hand, observed that his son's back, from one extremity to the other, appeared unusually protuberant. " What have you got to your back?" said he. " My jacket," replied the boy. " Well, what have you got under it?" demanded the father. " A leather apron four- double," answered the lad. " A leather apron, have you indeed ! and what's that for ?" " Why, pa," said the youngster, with a grave countenance, " you told me to prepare for a flogging, and I got as well prepared as 1 could.'''' The angry father now turned away to hide a laugh, and the boy escaped a flogging by being so well prepared for it.— Berkshire American. ANECDOTE OF IHE LATE COUNTKSS OF DERBY. — It is said that she went to a celebrated milliner, whom she had employed during her profession of the stage, to order a dress for her bridal presenta- tion at court. After explaining the fashion she wished, the milliner proposed showing the intended ornaments in proper display; and for this purpose, hurrying to a side- door in tbe apartment, that opened to some stairs, she called up to her work- women, " Bring me down Lady Teazle's hoop." The w ords were no sooner uttered than the speaker stood abashed, trying to apologize, in much con- fusion, to the new countess, who answered, smiling " Never miud, if it had not been worn by Lady Teazle first, very likely it would never have been wauted by Lady Derby." Mr. Gully has challenged for the whip, at Newmarket, so that it is very likely Mameluke aud Lamplighter may try their strength iu the Secohd October Meeting. SAGACIOUS DOGS— Forres is in a fair way of becoming quite celebrated for the sagacity of its dogs. We lately gave some account of one of thes6 animals, belonging to Mr. Sutherland, of the Mills; who is famed throughout the north of Scotland for his angling aud other wonderful acquirements; and we must this week pay our respects to a " canine gentleman"— so he is termed-— the property of Mr. Walter Scott, exciseman, iu that place. Thifc animal must be the Sir Isaac New ton of his species ; for we have never seen or heard of a canine philosopher at all equal to him. We have not been informed that he can either speak, read, or writer like a dog named William, in Dumfries, but he can do many things which are scarcely less intellectual or marvellous. He is a first rate exciseman— reader, pardon the Irishism. Some will have it that he is scarcely inferior to his master. He is a prime hand at detecting smugglers— whether in the ale, spirit, or candle way. He last week went into the house of a female transgressor iu the latter department of smuggling ; aud carried off with the utmost care, three newly smuggled candles; after giving the robber of the revenue a very significant look of reproval for her indefensible conduct. H3 took the illicit candles home— placed them before his master-*— aud looked up iu his face iu such a manner as if he meant to say," see Sir, look to this act of transgression: I hope the guilty party will uot escape punishment." The first time afterwards that both passed the defaulter's house, the dog* made such signs as would have convinced his master, iu> dependency of other evidence, that there the smuggled candles had been manufactured. But the worst of the business is, that tbe animal is as roguish as he is sagacious. He is a notable thief. He entered a poor woman's house a few weeks since, and carried home in his tusks, a large jug; full of milk without spilling so much as a drop. He returned to repeat the experiment; and as he could uot discover any more jugs with milk iu them, he indulged his revenge at the disappointment, by thrusting his nose into the interior of an empty one, aud running home along the streets with it in that position. His master's abode has, by the dog's assistance, been lately converted into a perfect victualling house, in which you will see every variety of fish and flesh— haddocks, flounders, mutton, veal, liens, chickens, & c. in countless frag- ments. The " canine gentleman,*' from the number of domestic duties he can perform, would be a great treasure iu a house, were it not for the un- conquerable predilection he evinces for stealing*.— Elgin Courier. THE CHAMKLEON: MANNER OF PREYING AND CHANGE OF COLOUR.— Mr. Robert Spittall, in a communication to the Edinburgh New Philoso- phical Journal, details some interesting observa- tions made by him of the habits of the chameleon, and the probable cause of its change of colour. The animals iu the possession of Mr. Spittall were five inches in length, exclusive of their tail. They lived entirely upon insects. Ou ob- serving one— the method of attack pursued was to the following effect :— They slowly moved towards their prey, as if afraid to disturb it ; at the same time keeping their eyes firmly fixed upon the insect until within a few inches of it, then on a sudden darting forth the tongue, aud as suddenly withdrawing it, they secured their prey, which very voracious mastication and deglutition soon disposed of. The greatest distance to which the tongue protruded was about five inches, generally less, never more. This organ, protruded by strong- muscular power, is chiefly returned to th © mouth by an apparatus attached to its base, which acts by its resiliency, in a somewhat similar way to the elasticity of a silk purse, when drawn out, and suddenly let go. The better to enable the animal to seize its prey, the extremity of the tongue folds up to . a slight extent, somewhat like the extremity of the proboscis of an elephant; aud moreover the organ is coated with an adhesive matter. The result of Mr. Spittall's experiment on the changes of colour in this animal leads him to conclude, that the existiug opinions which attribute the change of colour to the action of the lungs as the chief cause is correct. This state of the lungs, as remarked by Cuvier, is produced by the wants and passions of the animal, renders the body more or less transparent, and forces the blood more or less to flow towards the skin, that fluid being coloured more or less brightly, according to the quantity of air taken into the lungs. With regard to the transparent property of the body of the chameleon, Mr. Spittall says, that on one occasion, he and a companion were tolerably suro that they observed the shadow of the wires of the cage, during the bright sunshine, through the body of one of them, while in a compressed state. MASQUERADES.— The New York legislature have passed a bill imposing a fine of 1000 dollars on the proprietor of any establishment who may per- mit a masquerade to be held therein. The mania for masquerades in the city of New York, threaten- ing the worst effects to the morals of the citizens, imperatively appealed to the wisdom of the legis lature to apply some check, and we rejoice that it has been applied. In European cities of great population this species of amusement has prevailed, but rarely, if ever, to the extent to which it suddenly reached in New York, where, if we aro correctly informed, within a very few months after the first successful attempt,/ there were five mas- querades in a single night. It is notorious that iu the best conducted masquerades female delicacy has always been exposed to outrage. Let the pre- cautions against improper admissions be as strict as possible, there is no way to prevent the entrauce of many of both sexes who, uuder the concealment of a mask, may be tempted to give a freer scope than they would dar, e to give iu the eye of the world to those passions which tenant every bosom. The ex- citements of the scene all conspire to aid that temptation ; aud even tbe purity of soul which would, in private as well as public, shrink from the slightest contact wilh vice, is injured by being- placed in a situation where it is compelled to witness freedoms which cannot be practised iu open and virtuous society without reprobation. It is understood that even among those in New York who first lent their countenance to a masquerade, the extent to which their example has been followed has caused a great change of sentiment ou the subject of their harmlessness. It is admitted that evils have resulted, aud that it is impossible to prevent their recurrence. This change of feeling may of itself be a sufficient check to the growth of the amusement among the more fashionable of the citizens; but it would not check the spread of the evil among those who pride themselves less upon their subordination to the rules of morality, and their accountability to public opinion. Whether the fine will be found sufficient, it is impossible to say. There appear to be differences of opinion on this subject. It is probable, however, that there will be no general disposition lo encounter the certain penalty of the law, added to the risk of profit which must always attend exhibitions of this nature, after the charm of their novelty has abated."— Washing- ton Paper.
