FROM THE PARIS PAPERS.

Paris, May 13.

HIS Britannic Majesty’s Ambassador Extraordinary, the Duke of Northumberland, was yesterday introduced to the King with great ceremony, when he addressed his Majesty with felicitations from the British Monarch on the approach of his Majesty’s Coronation.  The Ambassador presented his credentials to the King, who made a suitable reply, and his Excellency was conducted back to the saloon of the Ambassadors, and thence to his hotel, with the same ceremony as was observed in conducting him to the audience.

London,
MONDAY, MAY 16.

On the 26th ult. the Empress of Austria arrived at Verona on his way to Milan.

The Paris papers of Saturday state that the Ministers of all the European Powers have assembled at Milan.

M. Villele has stated that France, from her present position, cannot recognise South American Independence while it is denied by Ferdinand.

The Journal des Debats contains a letter from Zante, dated 30th March, which represents the Egyptian force as having been defeated by the Greeks in the passes of the mountains near Navaria, and gives a favourable picture of the posture of affairs in Greece.  It is admitted there were some Frenchmen among the Egyptian troops.

The negociation between Portugal and Brazil, according to an account in the Etoile of yesterday, is completed.  The Emperor, it is said, will retain the sovereignty of Brazil during the life of his father, and will continue to reside at Rio Janeito, even though the Kingdom of Portugal should revert to him by the right of succession, which is to be preserved.  The two millions sterling given by Brazil, are not, as has been asserted, the purchase-money for its independence, on the part of Brazil, but an indemnity, for the produce of the mines and other property belonging to King John VI.

Advices from Tripolizza state that a complete victory had been gained by the Greeks over a body of 10,000 Egyptian troops that had dsembarked at Modon; 3,000 of them were surrounded on all sides, and, it is thought, they all perished or were taken prisoners.

Upwards of 50 more Spanish Refugees have arrived in this country.

Seventeen ships have been taken up by the East India Company for the purpose of conveying troops to India.

Cattle and horses of the finest breeds have been sent out from England to Buenos Ayres, to improve the breeds in that country.

Fifteen steam vessels are now building at Liverpool.

The Manchester petition against the Catholic Emancipation Bill, to the House of Lords, has arrived in town.  It has 43,028 signatures attached to it.  It measures 435 feet, and weighs 23lbs.

DORCHESTER.

At a Meeting of many Inhabitants of the Town and Neighbourhood of Dorchester, being Importers and Exporters of Goods through the Port of Weymouth, held at the Guildhall in Dorchester, on Monday, the 16th day of May 1825, to take into consideration a Bill now depending in Parliament, to amend and enlarge the Powers and Provisions of several Acts and relating to the Harbour and Bridge of the Borough and Town of Weymouth and Melcombe Regis, in the County of Dorset:

CHRISTOPHER ARDEN, Esq. Mayor, in the Chair,

The following Resolutions were unanimously agreed to:

Resolved,

That the Imposition of Duties contained in the Schedule annexed to the said Bill appears to be much greater than will be necessary to defray the Expence of repairing and keeping in repair the Harbour, Wharfs and Quays of the Port of Weymouth; and will be very burthensome and injurious not only to the Importers, Exporters and Consumers of Goods and Merchandize received and sent by Shipping through the said Port, but will also be ruinously oppressive to the Coasting Trade, which produces a large proportion of the present Revenue; and that the said Bill be therefore opposed.

That a Petition against the Bill be prepared and presented to the House of Commons; and that the Members for Dorchester, and for the county of Dorset, be requested to support the prayer thereof.

That a Committee be appointed for carrying these Resolutions into effect, with power to add to their number; that such Committee consists of the following Gentlemen; and that five of them be empowered to act.

The Mayor, the Town Clerk, Mr. Gould Read, Mr. Yearman, Mr. Hayne, Mr. Pattison, Mr. T. G. Garland, Mr. W. Garland, Mr. Gale, Mr. Wm. Davies, Mr. I. H. Hawkins, Mr. Oliver, Mr. Shore, Mr. T. Fisher, Mr. J. Fisher, Mr. C. Curme, Mr. Browning, Mr. B. Harvey, Jun., Mr. Bennett, Mr. Ensor.

That a subscription be entered into for the purpose of defraying the necessary expences of opposing the Bill.

That the thanks of this meeting be offered to Mr. Read, for his great vigilance in ascertaining the existence and progress of the said Bill.

That the foregoing resolutions be printed and circulated through the town and neighbourhood; and be also inserted once in the Dorset County Chronicle, and the two Sherborne, and the Salisbury Newspapers,

CHRISTOPHER ARDEN, Mayor.

Resolved unanimously,—That the Thanks of this Meeting be given to the Mayor for calling the same, and for his able and proper conduct in the chair. [5641

HOUSE OF LORDS.

MONDAY, May 16.—The house was occupied two hours in hearing petitions on the subject of the Catholic claims.  A very great majority of the petitions were against the debate, only six being in favour of them.—Adjourned.

TUESDAY, May 17.—A vast number of petitions were presented against the Catholic claims; among them was one by the Earl of Liverpool from Manchester, signed by 43,000 persons, and another from Liverpool signed by 13,000 names.  A petition to the same effect was presented by the Duke of York, signed by 12,000 persons.

Petitions in favour of the Catholic Claims were presented by the Duke of Sussex, Bishop of Norwich, Duke of Devonshire, Marquis of Devonshire, Marquis of Londonderry, Marquis of Lansdowne, Earl Grey, and Lord Holland.  Among those petitioning were opposed by two heads of Colleges and a majority of the Professors of the University of Cambridge, and another signed by Graduates of the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge.  Lord Dacre also presented a petition from 200 Serjeants and Barristers at Law in favour of the Bill.

Earl Grey presented a petition, signed by the Duke of Norfolk, by all the Catholic Peers, by all the Catholic Prelates, by all the ancient Catholic Gentry of England, and by upwards of thirty thousand persons of the same persuasion—praying for the repeal of those disqualifying laws, which continue to be imposed upon them.

The Earl of Donoughmore moved the second reading of the Catholic Relief of Bill.

Lord Colchester strenuously opposed the motion.  The Catholics, he said, asked for nothing short of having the broad and direct road to political power open to them—they asked for admission to all political domestic power—so all Governorships of our foreign possessions—in short, they now demanded an immediate, full, and unconditional admissions, throwing aside all these securities which at former periods had accompanied their demands.  The effect of acceding to their demands would be the gradual destruction of the Church property—the gradual re-establishment of the Catholic Religion in Ireland, and the gradual dissolution of that connection between Church and State, which formed an essential part of the British Constitution.—He moved that the bill be read a second time this day six months.

The Marquis of Anglesea said he must oppose the bill, as from every enquiry he had made, he found that every step towards conciliation had produced great additional irritation on the part of the Catholics; and, judging from this fact, his opinion was, that the object of the Roman Catholics was not emancipation but ascendancy.—(Hear.)

The Early of Longford, Lord Carberry, and the Bishop of Llandaff, spoke against the Bill; and the Marquis of Camden, Earl of Daraley, and the Bishop of Norwich, in support of it.

The Bishop of Chester, in oppose the motion, commenced by defending his brother prelates from the charge of their having been motivated by interested motives in their opposition to this measure.  Much had been urged, he said, on the indefeasible rights of five millions of subjects; but if the question was to be urged on the abstract ground of right, was not every subject liable to be deprived of his natural rights, when the necessities of the State required a deprivation or suspension of them?  (Hear.)  And if it were unjust to make any limitation of the subject’s legisletive rights, it was, on the same principle, unjust to limit the enjoyment of the elective franchise by the specification of a certain pecuniary qualification.  It was as unjust in principle to shut out one class of men from electing the makers of the law as it was to shut out another class from making the laws themselves, (hear,) yet, strange to add, that very exclusion of the subject from the exercise of the elective franchise was intended to be enacted by the very advocates of the proposed Bill.  There were 3 important questions inseparable from the considerations of this bill: first, whether the religious societies of the Roman Catholics were not inconsistent with the security of the Protestant Church? 2dly, whether it was wise to violate a principle of the Constitution, for the purposes of encouraging such religious opinions? and lastly, whether the Bill before their Lordships would be competent to the purpose of its introduction, namely, to remedy the evils of Ireland? (Hear.)

Never till the existence of the Catholic association, did the Irish people think so intensely on Catholic emancipation.  He hoped some Parliamentary measures would be adopted to ameliorate the condition of the lower classes in Ireland, and to take those out of the hands of political agitators.  He wished the Catholic hierarchy would forgive him if he declared, as a Protestant Bishop, that he considered their ultimate object to be the oppression of the Protestant religion.  If their Lordships wish to ascertain the feeling which pervaded the whole mass of the Catholics, they need only attend to that which took place at all their public meetings—to hear the declarations of their favourite orators, who described the Protestant Church as a nuisence, a burthen, an incubus on the country.  The Reverend Prelate then referred to the evidence given by Dr. Doyle, and illustrated it with his writings; he would ask, what credit could be given to the testimony of a man who, from the cover of his sleeve, drew forth and hurled about his poisoned arrows against the Protestant religion, and disseminated the revolting doctrines of Jacobinism, and then attempted to glaze down those asperities, and to made the doctrines of the Church to which he belonged.  He next called their Lordships’ attention to various doctrines held by the Catholics, which he maintained rendered it improper for them to attain political power; and he alluded in particular, as their denial of the inviolability of an oath, which most dangerous doctrine was not only maintained at Rome, but was actually taught in the class books at Maynooth College.  For these reasons, my Lords, (said he,) I regard this measure as an inroad on the Constitution, as a stepping stone to Catholics to scale the walls of our Church, and invade its most sacred interests.

The Earl of Limerick spoke in support of the bill.

The Marquis of Lawsdown, in a speech of great length, maintained the necessity of the proposed measure.  The Right Rev. Prelate had alluded to certain features in the state of Ireland, but he seemed to overlook one, namely, that Ireland furnished an anomaly, in having a Church which was not the religion of the people.  No statistical remedy would apply to such a state of affairs—and nothing could preserve and support that Protestant Church which he wished to be preserved and supported, but the creation of new relations between the people, and giving them an interest in lending to the Protestant estblishment the support of their affections.  (Cries of Hear!)   He had said that the Catholics desired to overtunr the Protestant Church, but on what evidence was that assertion founded?  Not on the evidence of any Catholic undoubtedly, not on the evidence of any well-informed Protestant, and yet such was the charitable imputation affixed to the Roman Catholics by the charitable and Right Rev. Prelate.  (Hear, hear.)  He (the Marquis of Lansdown) wished this question to be considered entirely with a view to the security of the Church of England—the peace of Ireland, and the strength and union of this great nation.  He would call upon their Lordships to perpetuate if they could the tranquillity which exists at present, and prevent if they could the return of hatred.  He was sure there could be no fears from the concession for the Church and State.

The Earl of Liverpool—The simple question, my Lords, to which the formers of this Bill ought to have addressed themselves, and that which we have now, I contend, to to say, is, whether it is expedient to remove the Catholic disabilities or not?  Are not, say the advocates of this measure, the Roman Catholics entitled to all the rights and privileges which their other fellow-subjects enjoy?  (Hear, hear.)  To this I answer with a direct negative.  (Hear, hear, hear.)  I say, the Roman Catholics are not entitled to the enjoyment of equal privileges with their Protestant fellow subjects, unbder a Protestant Constitution.  (Hear, hear, hear.)  This is a simple question upon which we are at issue.

The advocated of this Bill say, that in  free states all subjects are entitled to equal rights.  To this doctrine I am willing to subscribe, but with certain limitations.  They are, I admit, entitled to equal rights, but only upon equal conditions, and my objection to the Roman Catholics is, that they would not enjoy their liberties upon the same conditions as the Protestants.  The one pays an entire, the other an imperfect allegiance.  (Hear, hear.)  The allegiance of the one is complete, while that of the other is divided; and unless that it be proved to me, that he who works for half a day is entitled to the same wages as he who works for the whole day, or in other words, that the half is equal to the whole, I cannot admit that the Roman Catholic, whose allegiance is divided between a spiritual and a temporal master, is entitled to the enjoyment of the same civil rights and privileges as the Protestant, whose allegiance is undivided, and who acknowleges but one ruler.  (Hear, hear.)  I hold that the Protestant succession to the Crown is an essential part of the Constitution; but grant what the Catholics now desire, and the Protestant succession is not worth five farthings.  (Hear.)  When the Elective Franchise was granted to the Roman Catholics, it was hailed as a great boon, and is it not curious now, that these very people who talk so much of natural rights, and of their great importance to the subject, are prepared by this measure (which at the utmost can affect only thirty or forty persons,) to sacrifice the rights of five hundred thousand?  (Hear.)  We are told that nothing has been

[Start of page 2 column 2]

gained by the Reformation; but since that period we have had 136 years of religious peace, and pervious to it there were 160 years of religious convulsion.  This peace has been owing to the state of our law, which granted toleration to all other religious creeds, supporting, at the same time, the Established Church in a just and reasonable degree of superiority.   We are now called upon to put Protestants and Catholics on the same footing, and if we consent to this, certain I am that the consequences will be religious dissension, and not religious peace.  (Hear.)  The present system has the experience of its good results to recommend it, and I prefer it, therefore, to the experiment proposed in this Bill, or to any other that I have yet heard suggested.  (Cheers.)

Lord Harrowby maintained that many of the old obnoxious doctrines of the Catholics were disclaimed by them, and that no danger could ensue from granting them the relief now asked.  It could not be apprehended that a Ministry would ever attempt to maintain itself by an alliance with the Roman Catholic interests in Parliament.  If the proposed measure were adopted, there would be six or eight Catholic Peers in that House.  In the other House of Parliament, he understood from some quarters, there might be three—from others, that there might be sixteen, but he would suppose that there might be fifty Catholic Members.  What could they effect?  From all their efforts, he was persuaded that the Established Church would rest perfectly secure.  Could any many say what would be the result of the disappointment of the Catholic hopes in the present instance?  Could any man say, what might be the result, if we were engaged in a foreign war, and with a country which would posses both the means and the inclination of attempting to seduce the loyalty of Ireland?  The decision of their Lordships that night, if it should unfortunately be that which he feared he must anticipate, would be hailed with triumph by—e would not use the invidious term our enemies, but—rival powers, who would see in it the seeds of our future weakness.—(Hear.)

The Lord Chancellor observed that it had been said, that the jurisdiction of the Pope in this country, as acknowledged by the Roman Catholics, was merely spiritual; but he (the Lord Chancellor) could not bring his mind to understand what was meant by merely spiritual jurisdiction.  If two Catholics here were married by a Protestant Clergyman, the Pope would force them to live asunder, and the Common Law would oblige them to live together.  Now, was not that exercising a temporal jurisdiction?  He did not think that in the discussions of this question had been as largely put as it ought.  They would not refuse to English Catholics what they granted to the Irish; then they would be bound to put the other Dissenters in this country on an equal footing with the Catholics: so that it would ultimately come to this—that all the bulwarks and fences which their ancestors had provided for safety of the Protestant Churches would turn out to be wholly useless.  But let their Lordships beware what they were doing if they took them away.  As to the measure for giving salaries and stipends to the Priests of the Roman Catholic Church, could their Lordships refuse them in that case to clerical persons of other persuasions? and if they granted them in Ireland, they could not refuse to support a similar hierarchy in England.

With respect to another measure which it appeared was to accompany the accomplishment of the present Bill, he meant the disfranchisement of the Irish 40s. freeholders, he should pronounce no opinion upon it then—but their Lordships ought to have it before them, before they were called upon to decide on the main measure.  Yet if it were true that a measure which went to disfranchise thousands of the king’s subjects was brought forward with a view to catch a vote on the one and the other side of the House for another Bill, which went to obtain an extension of civil rights for a few, it did in that light appear to him a most objectionable measure.  (Hear.)—Some noble Lords had that night termed him a Parliamentary Reformer, because he had ventured to declare his belief, that the great majority of the people of this country was hostile to the present measure.  But in that opinion he persevered.  He did believe that an infinite majority of the English people were averse to it—that they were disquieted by the apprehension of its accomplishment—and that if it did pass it would give great pain and dissatisfaction.  (Hear.)  But then it was said, it had passed the House of Commons.  He however well recollected the East India Bill—a Bill which passed the House of Commons, and against which numerous petitions had been presented.  It was then, as it was now, contended that the people approved the measure.  There, however, unluckily for that assertion, came a general election.  The House of Commons after that election was differently constituted; and the result proved, that what was alleged to be the decision of the people of this country turned out to be a delusion.  (Hear.)  He should conclude with assuring their Lordships, that after twenty-five years’ deep consideration of the subject, he could not, conscientiously with his sense of duty, and the station which he held under the Crown, give his support to the present Bill.  (Hear, hear.)

(It was remarkable that the Duke of York, and several strenuous opposers of the Catholic Bill, stood up while the Lord Chancellor was speaking.)

Earl Fitzwilliam considered the participation of the rights of the Constitution was essential to the safety of Ireland, and the security of the United Kingdom, and that opinion he gave from his own personal knowledge.  (Hear, hear.)

The House then divided—the numbers were—

For the Bill—Present 84; Proxies 46 ... 130

Against it.—Present 113; Proxies 85 ... 178

Maj. 48

HOUSE OF COMMONS.

MONDAY, May 16.—The West India Company Bill, after undergoing some discussion, was read a 3d time and passed.

Mr. Canning brought up the copies of three treaties entered intered into by the British Government; the first, a treaty concluded with Russia, settling the disputed claims which existed between this country and Russia, with regard to certain rights of trade and navigation in the Pacific; the second a treaty between England and Sweden, providing for the more effectual suppression of the Slave Trade; and the third, a treaty of amity, commerce, and navigation, concluded between England and the United Provinces of Rio de la Plata.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer made his promised motion for an augmentation of the Judges’ salaries, and for discontinuing or diminishing their official patronage.   He proposed that the fees taken in the Courts of Justice shall in future form no part of the emoluments or salaries of the Judges.  The sale of offices in their own Courts by the Chief Justices of the King’s Bench and Common Pleas, is to be abolished, and these Judges are to receive a compensation for the emoluments which they derived from them.  The Lord Chief Justice of the King’s Bench is to have a salary of 10,000l. a year, in lieu of all fees and emoluments.—To the Lord Chief Justice of the Common Please, 8,000l. a year on the same condition.—The Lord Master of the Rolls to be allowed, 7,000l. a year.—The Lord Chief Baron of the Exchequer, 7,000l. a year.—The Vice-Chancellor, 5,000l. a year; and each of the Puisne Judges, 6,000l. a year.—The resolutions, after some discussion, were severally agreed to.

The Cotton Mills Regulation Bill was read a 2d time.—Adjourned.

TUESDAY, May 17.—Mr. Hobhouse brought forward his promised motion for the repeal of the Window Tax; and after alluding to the numerous petitions that had been presented against the taxes on houses and windows, he moved “that from and after the 5th of April next, the whole of the House and Window Duties shall cease and determine.”

The Chancellor of the Exchequer said he must oppose the motion, because, if ascended to, it would retard the measures now in progress for the gradual improvement of the resources of the country.  The reduction which had been already made was founded upon a prospective view to the revenue of the next three years.

The House divided on the question, when there appeared.—For the motion 77; against it 114.

Mr. Druman obtained leave to bring in a Bill for preventing oppression under the colour of law, by the removal of Indictments from the Sessions and Assizes, to the Court of the King’s Bench.—Adjourned.

London.
WEDNESDAY, MAY 18.

His Majesty still suffers under his attack of the gout.

The Drawing-room is postponed to the 9th of June.

The motion for the second reading of the Catholic Relief Bill was lost in the House of Lords last night by a majority of 48,—their being (present and proxies) 130 Peers for it, and against 178.

The majority in 1821, when the Catholic Bill was rejected by the House of Lords, was 39.  The number of votes on that occasion, including proxies, was 279.  On the present decision the number of votes was 308.—The majority in the Commons in 1821 was 19.

To show the intense interest excited by the division in the House of Lords this morning, it may be mentioned that several expresses were immediately sent off to Dublin via Liverpool, without even waiting for the reports in the morning papers.

The House of Commons has appointed a Committee to inquire into the subject of conveyance of parcles.

There is shortly to be a new copper coinage in Ireland, of similar value to the English.

A new Company has made its appearance on the Stock Exchange—an Egyptian Trading Company; the shares bear a premium of about a half per cent.

A clause added by Mr. Peel to the Police Magistrates’ Bill, at its third reading, effects an important change in the discipline of prisons.  The clause is to this purport:—“That no persons convicted of misdemeanours, shall be subjected to the punishment of hard labour, unless the offense be of a fraudulent nature.”

Letters received this day from Matla state, that the Marquis of Hastings intended to sail in his Majesty’s ship Cambrian for England, in consequence of the proceedings at the India House.

A reprimand has been sent from the Home Secretary’s Office to a Magistrate at Bristol who advised Henry Savery to plead guilty.  His life has been spared on account of his having been thus improperly induced to plead guilty.

Dr. Jenkinson, the intended new Bishop will, it is said, be succeeded in the Deanary of Worcester by Dr. Rock, whose stall at Winchester, it is also said, will be given to one of the two late Masters of Winchester School.—Morning Herald.

A clergyman of the Established Church named Benson now attracts larger congregations at Dr. Giles’s church than the celebrated Mr. Irving.  Mr. Benson’s chief characteristic in preaching is calm and dignified reasoning.—The  rage for hearing popular preachers has been well noticed by Archbishop Secker:—“It is no unusual thing (says he) for people to listen to discourses from Ministers of God, only to enjoy the satisfaction which a well-composed discourse naturally affords.  But religious instruction was never supposed to give such empty insignificant delight as this; nor does it in the least attain its proper end, unless it influences men to forget the preacher, and think of themselves; unless it raises in them, not a superficial complacency, or an idle admiration, but an awful and durable solicitude about their eternal welfare.”

Accounts from all parts of the country, represent the present spring as the most promising that has been for many years.  The foliage was never known to be more luxuriant; and the appearance of every species of vegetation bespeaks an abundant produce.  There has been a partial blight in some of the apple districts; but not such as to affect the crop.

The apple and pear trees in Herefordshire give flattering promises of an abundant crop.

Drury-Lane.—A new romantic drama, with music, in three acts, called Faustus, with new scenery and decorations, was presented here on Monday night, and met with a great and well merited success.

Singular Fact in Natural History.—A flock of wild ducks for some time frequented the vicinity of Cleeve, and, during the present spring, one of these birds built her nest on the top of a haystack, belonging to Mr. Townsend; and has actually hatched four eggs, and the young birds instantly made their way down from their perilous breeding place, and may now be seen swimming in a pond close to the back of the haystack.—Cheltenham Chronicle.

On Saturday Mr. Wilson, gardener, of Tollcross wishing to save five young thrushes which were in a nest in his garden hedge, and which he feared some boys would speedily carry off, took the nest while the old bird was looking at him, and placed it in a gooseberry bush in his garden.  The old bird, however, deserted her young ones, and they were nearly perishing with cold and hunger in the evening; upon which he wrapt the nest in a piece of flannel, and placed it in one of his hot-beds.  Early next morning he repaired to the place; and, instead of being dead, as he apprehended, he found them quite recovered by the heat, chirping for food.  After some consideration he resolved to try one other expedient for preserving the young breed.  There were two blackbirds nests in the garden with young about the same age, and he put three into the one and two into the other.  They have since come on well, as the blackbirds feed the young thrushes with the same assiduity as they do their own breed.—Glasgow Chronicle.

Mr. E. Moss, steward to J. Barling, Esq. of Lynsted, has now in his possession two cub foxes, suckled by a cat; they were put to the cat when a fortnight old, and they have now been with her ten weeks; she is remarkably attentive to them, and carries them mice when she catches any.

On Sunday, a serious accident occurred to Mr. Wood, one of his Majesty’s Keepers in the Great Park, and a young man with him.  The young man was first attacked by a heifer, which severely wounded him.  Mr. Wood proceeded to his assistance, and the heifer made a violent rush at Mr. Wood, who held out his arms to save his body, when one of the horns of the animal gored his hand and arm in a dreadful manner.  In making a second rush, Mr. Wood fortunately stepped on one side, when the horns of the beast entered so deep in a bank behind Mr. Wood, that she stuck fast, and on endeavouring to extricate herself, turned on her back, her head being confined from the solid purchase of the horns in the earth, and her neck twisted.  While in that position, some men coming that way, assisted in putting an end to the animal.

Secanduries’ Office, London.—On Monday a Sheriff’s jury assessed the damages in an action brought against the celebrated Joseph Hayne, Esq. by his under-butler, to recover the sum of 97l. for wages, and for disbursements made on behalf of the said J. Hayne, Esq.  The sums expended were for the hire of hackney-coaches—for newspapers—for letters—soda-water, &c. &c.  The Jury gave 50 guineas damages.

Horse Stealing.—Mr. Halls, the other day remarked to a country magistrate, who was sitting on the bench, on the alarming frequency of this crime, and said the police had in their eye one man who was supposed, within a very short tie past, to have exported upwards of forty stolen horses.

Corn Exchange, May 18.—The Mealing trade is exceedingly dull this morning;  scarcely a single sale has been effected; but what was sold, being prime samples, realized Monday’s prices.—Barley is also very heavy, the finest qualities selling for 40s. per quartet.—Oats go off rather freely, but not dearer.

Item: Last Days of Lord Byron.

The Last Days of Lord Byron.’—This is the title of a Work written by Mr. Parry, who was Lord Byron’s Confidant during the last months of his existence.  The English public will not learn, without a feeling of deep sorrow, that this noble Author fell a victim to his own intense anxiety for the welfare of the Greeks, to severe and unmerited disappointments, and to the want of the meanest comforts!  The former accounts of Lord Byron’s situation in Greece have been painted in somewhat en beau; Mr. Parry has stripped off the false colouring, and shewn in what a forlorn and comfortless condition did the finest and greatest Poet of modern times terminate his ill-fated career.  The Volume is a handsome Octavo, and is embellished with a fine Portrait of his Lordship, and several other Engravings. [5527

Item: Contemporary Literature

Contemporary Literature.—No. 6.  Dramatic Table Talk; or, Anecdotes, Scenes, and Adventures connect with the Theatres and Theatricals, from the Age of Shakspeare to our own Days, by R. Ryan, with an original Essay on the Art of Acting, by Talma, with many Engravings, 3 vols.  1l. 1s.

The splendid success of the Work called ‘Westminster Hall,’ and the equal popularity of another modern Work, under the title of ‘Lambeth and the Vatican,’ seem to have paved the way for a similar production on the ever-fascinating subject of the stage.  We may argue with the Lawyers, and be instructed by the Divines, but we crack our sides while we are brought into contact with all that is curious, eccentric, and original connection with the History of the Stage, and the geniuses who have figured upon it, or written for it.

In truth, Mr. Ryan has produced a festival of dramatic pic-nic, which will never weary the reader; and, like the bee, he has collected honey from every source, and often from book little likely to afford it.  In this respect Dramatic Table-Talk is the actual quintescence of this charming department of literature, and in this declaration we sufficiently bespeak the character, quality, and popularity of the Work.

The fac-similies of Autographs, and the various engravings in keeping with the text, add, in no small degree, to the value of these volumes, and to their general interest; while they bespeak the Editor’s extraordinary diligence in assembly so many rarities.  Research is combined with taste, and taste with delicacy, for we observe no article calculated to offend modesty, though Mr. Ryan has introduced all kinds of characters to his readers, and in all the situations, serious and comic, in which the heroes and heroines of the sock-and-buskin appear before the world.

It is proper to add, that the Work is not merely a collection of rare personal anecdotes, but is throughout mingled with criticisms on the productions of the stage, and with curious traits of the history and progress of this dramatic art in England and other countries.  [5631

GILLMORE’s SPASMODIC ESSENCE, as effectual Remedy for removing violent Pains in the Stomach, occasioned by Wind, Indigestion, Flatulence, &c.—Sold in bottles, 2s. 9d. and 4s. 6d.

Friday’s and Saturday’s Posts.FROM THE PARIS PAPERS.
PARIS, May 15.

The King intends to give the army a striking proof of his satisfaction, by granting it on his Coronation 800 Crosses of the Legion of Honour, of which 600 are to Officers.

Paris; May 16.—It was at first believed that his Majesty, after his Coronation, would make his solemn entry into Paris, on the 4th June.  It is decided that it shall take place on the 6th.

Paris, May 17.—The Coronation carriages will set off on Wednesday for Rheims.  Nothing so superb has ever before issued from the French work-shops.  The door opens without any visible hinge, and the most practised eye would seek in vain to discover by what means it is made to move.  The entire vehicle, is of dazzling richness.

It is not known on what foundation many French journals announce, that the French army will give up the fortresses which it occupies in Spain on the 1st July.

Zante, April 17.—Navarino, attacked for three days defended itself heroically, and not a Turk went out of Peloponessm.  Our army is full of ardour, and the Egyptians suffer in their confined positions.  Provisions and munitions of war set off this moment from Zante, for Nasamino, in Greek and Indian vessels.  The Hellenic Government has at this moment, 36,000 men in its pay and the number augments daily.

HOUSE OF LORDS.

WEDNESDAY, May 18.—Lord Landerdale presented several petitions against the Equitable Loan Bill.—Lord Langdown gave notice that he would on Friday se’nnight move the 2d reading of the Unitarian Marriages Bill.—Adjourned.

THURSDAY, May 19.—The Canadian Corn Bill was read a second time.  The New Thrown Silk Bill, the Naval Asylum and Greenwich Hospital Consolidation Bill, and some others, passed through Committees.—Adjourned.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.

WEDNESDAY, May 18.—Mr. Brougham presented a petition from the Catholic inhabitants of the parish of Aghadoc, in the diocese of Dublin, (who, he said, were in the proportion of 300 Catholics to 1 Protestant), praying that they might not be obliged to build and support a Protestant Church, for the benefit of a Mr. Grierson.  The learned gentleman took occasion to regret the throwing out of the Catholic Bill by the House of Lords, which had received the sanction of repeated majorities of the House of Commons.  He deplored the result, and expressed some alarm as to the consequences; but he hoped that the Roman Catholics might not despair—“even for the present session,”—because Justice must ultimately be done to them.

Sir T. Lethbridge was astonished that Mr. Brougham should thus remark on the proceedings of the House of Lords.  He paid high compliments to the loyalty of the Roman Catholics, and said he doubted not, whatever efforts might be made to the contrary, that they would bow to the decision of Parliament.  He trusted that, notwithstanding the hints of the Hon. and learned Member, and the insidious advice of their demagogues, they would *** in that course of loyalty, which it was not only in their interest, but their duty to observe.

After some observations from Mr. Rice, Sir R. Inglis, and Mr. Peel, the petition was ordered to be printed.

The orders of the day were disposed of.—Adj.

THURSDAY, May 19.—Sir T. Acland moved for leave to bring in a Bill to enable Magistrates at Quarter Sessions to regulate the expenses of convictions under the Vagrant Act.  He afterwards withdrew his motion.

The Salmon Fisheries Bill was ordered to be printed, and to be taken into consideration next session.

The County Courts Bill, with two other clauses, the one to exempt the City of London, and the other to exempt the Small Debts’ Court of Bristol, from the operation of the Bill—and the County Rates’ Mortgage Bill—were severally read a third time, and passed.

The Report of the Judges’ Salaries Bill was read, and adopted by the House.

The Report of the Bill for modifying the Quarantine Laws being brought up, Sir Isaac Coffin adduced fresh proofs of the contagious nature of the plague.

Mr. Charles Grant explained that the object of the Bill was to free the trade of the country from the ruinous impediments thrown upon it by the Quarantine laws.  Taking it for granted that the plague was contagious, it was possible, with due precautions, to remove the present restrictions.  The Bill was much misunderstood, and he begged it to be received, that it was founded solely on the principle that the plague was contagious, and only to be avoided by excessive precaution.

The Lunatics Trustees Bill was read a 2d time.—Adj.

London,
FRIDAY, MAY 20.

The King.—We have great pleasure in stating that his Majesty is considerably better, the attack of the gout in the knee being much abated, and the pain inconsiderable.  The indisposition occasioned by the gout is so far reduced that some select friends dined with the King on Wednesday, and he was yesterday enabled to have a small dinner party.  Not the least doubt is now entertained that his Majesty will be able to hold the approaching drawing room.

On Wednesday morning, after the division on the Catholic Relief Bill, the Duke of Sussex immediately proceeded to the “Dissentient,” book, and entered his name as a dissentient against the decision on the Bill which had just been come to by the House.  His example was followed by Lords Jersey, Holland, Ellenborough, Spencer, King, Suffield, Minto, & Mendip.

It will be satisfactory to the public to learn from an official statement, which has been laid on the table of the House of Commons, that the gross amount of the Exchequer last year has exceeded that of the Imports by the amount of twenty-one millions sterling.  The balance of trade being thus decidedly in favour of the country, the existing apprehension of gold being exported, may be safely dismissed.

National Debt.—Our present unredeemed debt is 781,128,222l.; since 1823 upwards of 13,460,900l. have been redeemed, of which more than 10 millions were redeemed in the last year.

Mr. Huskisson’s Customs Consolidation Bill, now in progress through the House of Comons, will repeal no less than 465 Acts of Parliament!

It is said that a very extensive coinage has taken place for export to the English colonies, to supersede the dollars and other circulating medium in all the English posessions.  The measure will facilitate the exchange of all ***., and greatly *** commerce.

Lord Crossberneris, Commander-In-Chief of the Company’s Forces in India, and Lieut. Gen. Sir G. T. Walker, Commander-in-Chief and second in Council at Port St. George, took the usual oaths on Wednesday at the India House, and afterwards dined with the Directors at the City of London Tavern.

Lord Charles Somerset, Governor of the Cape of Good Hope, has Mr. *** Journal, together with a Literary Society, composed of 61 gentlemen, who included among them the Chief Justice.

It is said that orders have been given at the Cape of Good Hope, to pay the Government paper issued in 1810 at the Cape; the six dollars of 4s. at 1s. 6d. in new coin (shillings and sixpences), from England.

Mr. O’Connell and Mr. Lawless.—It is said that all differences which have taken place between these gentlemen have been put an end to, by the mediation of some common friends.

Mr. Brownlow, M.P. for Armagh.—The rage of the Orange party in Armagh against Mr. Brownlow, for his conversion, knows no bounds, and evinces itself in bitter expressions of hate.  Last week he was burnt in effigy at Lurgan; and the Orangemen of Armagh, imitating their Lurgan friends, assembled in great numbers at noon-day, and repeated the disgraceful act.  A cart containing the effigy, with a cross and beads suspended from the neck, and the word “traitor” written in large letters on the back—was escorted to the market-place by an immense concourse, and then burnt by the assembled multitude with yells and imprecations.  The terror of the inhabitants was indescriable—but the fury of of the Organemen subsided after the accomplishment of their purpose.  It is understood that a great Orange triumph is to be celebrated in various parts of Ireland in consequence of the Catholic Bill being thrown out by the House of Lords.

There was a bonfire and ringing of bells at Maidstone, on hearing of the loss of the Catholic Bill.

The Curé of Nerac, in the South of France, has, under the authority of the Council of Prefecture, taken possession of the Protestant Church, which they have occupied for more than 20 years; and ordered Te Deum to be chanted in token of victory, declaring from the pulpit that the “hand of God has scourged the heretics from his temple!”

The Paris papers are filled with descriptions of the approaching Coronation ceremony.  The portraits of fourteen Sovereigns have been sent off to Rheims—recalling the features of the most celebrated monarchs crowned in that city.  The coat and decorations of the Duke of Northumberland are estimated at 1,8600,000 francs.

Letters have been received from La Guayra, in Colombia, (by the Leeward Island packet), answering letters dated from London, in February, making the communication backwards and forwards in 86 days.

A letter from Corfu of the 11th ult. states than an agreement has been entered into between the Turkish Government and the Pacha of Egypt, by which the latter is to receive for 59 years the Revenues of the Morea, in the event of his being able to effect the conquest of that country from the Greeks.

Three of the assassins who murdered Mr. and Mrs. Hunt, when visiting the ruins of Pæstum in the kingdom of Naples, were executed the 23d of April last.

At a ship launch at Monmouth on the 9th inst. fourteen persons feel overboard and were drowned.

Epsom Races.—There was but a thin attendance of sportsmen at the commencement of these races on Tuesday; and the running for the stakes on that day was interesting only to those concerned.  Among the more distinguished persons on the course, were the Duke of St. Albans, Duke of Richmond, Lord Burford, Hon. Augustus Stanhope, and Mr. Hayne.  The sport on Wednesday was also uninteresting, but a great degree of interest was excised for the Darby stakes which were to be run for the next day, Rufus continuing the favourite, only 7 to 4 being bet against him.

The Derby Stakes of 50 sovereigns each, for 3 year old colts and fillies (a mile and a half) were won yesterday at Epsom Races, by Lord Jetsey’s chesnut colt by Phantom out of Webb, beating 17 others.  The Duke of Grafton’s chesnut colt Rufus (against which 2 to 1 had been betted before starting) came in second.  These stakes had excited an uncommon degree of interest, there being no less than 58 subscribers.—At first starting, a hard push was made for the lead by Muleteer and Rufus; but when they arrived at the top of the hill, Tottenham Corner, Web who had evidently lain by, let loose, got in front, and won the race in a most clever style by two lengths, and the knowing ones say, he might have multiplied the two by five or six.—James Robinson was the rider of the winning horse; and it is worthy of remark that he, on a Phanto colt (Cedric), and a Phantom filly (Cobweb), won the Derby and Oaks last year, and now again rode a winning race for the Derby, on another Phantom colt.  The Duke of Gloucester, and the Dukes of Grafton and Richmond, Earls of Uxbridge, Lowther, Jersey, and Verulam, Lord Dunwich, and several distinguished personages, honored the Course yesterday with their presence.  The Duke of York did not attend, as was expected.

Longwaist, the winner of the Craven at Newmarket, is highly spoken of, and stands high in the books for his numerous engagements this season.

The University of Cambridge has refused to sanction the appearance of Miss Foote at the town-hall, to sing at two public concerts.

Kean played the character of Richard on Monday night at Glasgow theatre.  The house was tolerably well filled, although there were but few ladies present, and the play went off without any material interruptions.

Western Ship Canal.—Mr. Green, civil engineer, of Exeter, was on Tuesday examined at great length by the counsel, before the Committees of the House of Commons, respecting the supply of water for the canal.  He stated that there were to be two reservoirs, each of which was to be supplied from the drainings of twelve square miles of country;—that taking the data of Mr. Dalton, the fall of water from rain and dews was three feet, of which eighteen inches were taken up by absorption; and that Mr. Telford and himself had only taken six of the remaining eighteen inches for the reservoirs, although, in his separate opinion, nine inches might fairly have been taken.  He was also examined, at some length, by Lord Folkstone, Mr. Bankes, and other Members.  Capt. Nicholls was then called to prove his nautical surveys of the intended harbour.

New Road into the North of Devon.—The Act of Parliament for making a road from Taunton to Southmolton, through Wiveliscombe and Bampton, received the Royal Ascent on Friday last, and the subscription towards the undertaking having been filled, the work will be carried into execution with as little delay as possible.  It is expected that this road will be the direct and general thoroughfare from London to Barnstaple, as it will scarcely have a single hill upon the whole line between Taunton and Southmolton, and will be shorter by six miles and a half than any other road.

The General Stage Coach Company, as a preliminary to reducing their scheme to practice, have by public advertisement invited innkeepers on the Manchester, Liverpool, York, Exeter, and other roads, to furnish them with an account of the terms on which they will supply passengers with refreshments of every description, including waiters’ fees.  They have also advertised for tenders to supply the coaches and harness.

In the Insolvent Debtors’ Court on Tuesday the discharge of John Bond, a travelling linen-draper, late of Hampton, was opposed by two of his creditors.  It appeared that his debts amounted to 301l. and upwards.  On comparing the schedule with the books, there appeared a great variation.  The Court observed on the mysterious transactions between the insolvent and Mrs. Wood, and adjudged him to six months imprisonment.

The King v. Loaring.—The defendant had been found guilty of a riot the last assizes for Dorchester.  He had had a share with his brother in the Exeter coach, but was ejected from it in consequence of some supposed violation of the rules of the firm.  The brothers, incensed at being ejected, waited with a mob for the coming in of the coach one night, cut the traces, and harnessed on their own horses, and drive it away with the passengers.  The elder brother had already been sentenced to imprisonment for two months, and the defendant was now sentenced to the same term.

Melancholy and disgraceful Occurrence.—The Rev. Abraham Charles Munamery, a Clergyman of the established Church, and a member of the University of Cambridge, has been examined at Lambeth-street Office, on a charge of having stolen a quantity of plate and other goods from the house of a gentleman named Hill, at South Shields, with whom he lately lodged.  He was apprehended a few days ago at Gravesend, on board the vessel in which he had just arrived from Shields, with the goods in his possession.  He wept bitterly during his

There is not, perhaps, in the whole Materia Medica any one remedy which so effectually relives the pain of a suffering patient as the American Soothing Syrup.  Who can watch the writhing tortures into which a lovely infant is often convulsed during the period of dentition, without feeling sympathy for the suffering?  And who could hesitate to procure a remedy, when a remedy can be found, which is obvious by the effectual relief afford in so many distressing cases which are daily coming to the notice of Mrs. Johnson.  Therefore Mothers ought never to be without the American Soothing Syrup in the nursery; for if a child awakes in the night with pain, by only rubbing the gums with a few drops of the Syrup, it will immediately open the pores, heal the gums, and thereby prevent fevers and convulsions; for should it come in competition with any other disorder, it often destroys the mother’s brightest hopes.

To be had, wholesale and retail, of Johnson and Co. 28, York place, City-road, London; and, by the appointment of all principal Medicine Venders in town and country, at 2s. 9d. per bottle.

N. B. None are genuine, unless signed on the Stamp with Mrs. Johnson’s own hand-writing, as there are several spurious sorts.

Item: Rowland’s Maccassar Oil

In the annals of elegant and useful invention, Rowland’s Maccassar Oil has attained the most distinguished celebrity.  Patronised by the respective Monarchs of the three greatest Empires in the Universe, Russia, China, and Persia, this Oil is established in use and reputation with the civilized and discriminating of all nations, from the Arctic to the Antarctic regions; and “though last, not least in our esteem,” the gracious sovereign, his illustrious family, and the beauteous and the brave of our “surpassing island,” have long honoured Rowland’s invaluable preparation with preferable distinction.  These are facts which (multum in parvo) prove the universality, utility, and high use *** of Rowland’s Macassar Oil—facts, which render them invulnerable to the futile machinations of envy, and supersede the necessity of lengthened panegyric.  To those, however, who have not hitherto used this preparation a succinct account of its extraordinary qualities may be requisite.  The Macassar Oil acts in the double capacity of preventive and restorative.  Its balsamic properties are nutritive and fertilising, bestowing a healthy vigour that resists decay; and, in cases even of entire baldness, creating tresses of silken and luxurious redundancy.

GAWAN and CO. beg to inform the Public they can refer to several of the first Surgeons, who will prove that persons of both sexes have been cured by wearing these Trusses night and day.

The following is from a Surgeon in Dublin, said some weeks after having recommended our Truss to Mr. S. Page, of Mount-Joy-square, dated Aug. 1, 1824:—

“I received your letter by Mr. Page, and should have answered it sooner, but waited till I could by observation speak in a more satisfactory manner of the efficacy of your Truss.  I have now no hesitation in saying that it is, in my opinion, by far the best I have heretofore ever used, and in the case of Mr. P. has perfectly succeeded in keeping the hernia reduced when all others had failed.  One of these Trusses will be sent to the College of Surgeons to-morrow; I will not fail to mention the advantage which I am sure will result from their utility being made known.”—G. and Co. can give the name of the above Surgeon, with the names of three others of the greatest eminence in London.

FRIDAY, May 20.—The royal ascent was given to the Capital Convicts Bill, the Sherriff’s Court Regulation Bill, the Small Debts Recovery Bill, and some others.

The County Courts Bill, and County Rates Mortgage Bill, was brought up from the Commons, and read a first time.—Adjourned to Wednesday.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.

FRIDAY, May 20.—Mr. Brougham gave notice that on Thursday next, he would submit a proposition to the House for the founding of an University in the City of London.

Mr. Peal’s Bill for sucurring the independence of Juries went through a Committee.  By this bill handholders as***, or persons possessing personal property to the amount of 400l. will be competent to serve on Juries.  But his main object is to provide that the Special Jury, in every criminal case, shall be selected by ballot.

Mr. Scarlett and Mr. Brougham warmly expressed their unqualified commendations of the Bill.

The subject of the Judges’ Salaries was brought before the House by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, who stated, that on further consideration he was disposed to increase the salaries of the Puisne Judges to 5,500l. in order that their retiring pension might be raised from 2,300l. to 2800l.  With respect to the promotion of Puisne Judges, the Right Hon. Gentleman observed, that though nothing could be more unconstitutional than to hold it out as the reward of political services, yet it would be wrong to deprive the Crown absolutely of the power of promotion.

Mr. Brougham moved a resolution tending to deprive Puisne Judges of the capability of being promoted to the Chief Justiceship; but this proposition was rejected by a majority of 83, the numbers being, for it, 29—against it, 113—Adjourned to Thursday.

Epson Races.—The Great Oaks Stakes of 30 sovs each (50 subscribers) were yesterday won by General Grosvenor’s Wings (Chifney), beating Mr. Jones’s Pastime (2), and Duke of Grafton’s Tontine (3)—Ten started, but the above only were placed.

At starting, Tontine was close pressed by Pastime, while Chiffney, who rode Wings, laid close with them, keeping a little back ground till they passed Tottenham corner; the struggle then became severe; at last Wings hot the lead, kept it, and by dint of good riding won by half a neck.  The result excited astonishment throughout the field, and nothing could exceed the dismay felt by many of the first judges, who lost money to an enormous amount; and the defeat of the favourites, both for the Derby and Oaks, will long be remembered.  Immediately after the race, a vast number of high sporting characters quitted the downs.

At Epsom races yesterday his Royal Highness the Duke of Gloucester was early in the field, and having quitted his carriage, he mounted his horse and mixed in the betting circle.  The Duke of Richmond, Lord Orford, Lord Uxbridge, Lord Jersey, Lord Exeter, General Grosvenor, Lord Foley, Captain Berkeley, and a long list of stars on the turf were present.

The melancholy duty devolves on us of announcing the death of a most excellent man, Mr. John Callaway, of Hersley.  The lamentable event took place on Sunday morning last, whilst that highly respected individual was taking his breakfast; and it was the more remarkable, as, up to the very moment of his dissolution, he was in good spirits, and in the enjoyment of apparent good health.  The shock of such a sudden bereavement to his friends was great, but still it was alleviated by the knowledge that Mr. Callaway’s sincere piety, and invariable attention to his religious duties, made him better prepared than most men for that awful change to which human nature is subject.  No person should be more respected or beloved by every class of society within the circle of his acquaintance; and we do not over-rate Mr. Callaway’s worth when we say, that a man of stricter honour and integrity never existed.  He was in the 64th year of his age.

On the 16th instant died, at Arlesford, Mr. John Holden, surgeon.

Skipper, the pedestrian, on Tuesday-last finished his performance of 56 miles per day for 30 days, having walked from hence to Wilton and back each day; he finished the task at 3 o’clock, and afterwards paraded through the town with colours and a band of music.  A handsome collection was made for him.

Item: John Dore

NEWPORT, May 19.—On Saturday last the magistrates acting for the Division of this Island, convicted John Dore, of West Cowes, broker, of having foreign shells in his possession, which had not paid the duty, and sentenced him to pay a fine of treble their value.  They also convicted Thomas Harnet, of Binstead, of having foreign spirits in his possession, and fined him treble the value of such spirits.

On the same day two officers of Excise, whilst on their way to search the house of a man of the name of Pragnel, who lives about a mile from this town, met his wife coming to market with her butter, and suspecting that her basket contained something besides butter, were induced to search it, and therein found a quantity of foreign brandy and Geneva, which they seized, and took Mrs. Pragnell before a magistrate, by whom she was sent to our Bridewell.  The case will be shortly heard at the Guildhall.

Providential Escape from Shipwreck.—Last night, as the sloop Mary of this port, James Shepherd, master, laden with flour and stones from Cornwall, was coming through the Needles, she suddenly went to the bottom, and had it been in deep water, Shepherd and his crew which consisted of two men, must have been drowned, for so very unexpected was this afflicting accident, which is supposed to have happened by the starting of one of her planks, that they had not time to take to their boat.  Part of the topmast being above water, Shepherd and his fellow suffers clung to it till this morning, the sea frequently beating over them, when they were rescued from their extremely perilous situation, by Thomas Cork, of Cowes.  Although true, it will scarcely be believed, that in the course of the night several vessels passed the Mary within hail, without offering the smallest assistance.

Item: John Fisher, Bishop of Salisbury

John Fisher, Bishop of Salisbury, was the eldest son of a Clergyman of the same name, Prebendary of Preston, in the Church of Sarum, and Rector of Calhourn, in the Isle of Wight.  He was born 1748; educated at St. Paul’s School, and entered at St. Peter’s College, Cambridge.  In 1773 he was elected a Fellow of St. John’s College in the same University.  In 1870 he was appointed Preceptor to his Royal Highness Prince Edward, afterwards Duke of Kent.  In 1781 he was

[Start of page 4 column 3]

nominated Chaplain to King George III., and in *** a Canon of Windsor.  In *** he was appointed *** of Exeter.  In *** appointed Preceptor to her Royal Highness Princess Charlotte of Wales; and in ***translated to the See of Salisbury, in the *** of which he died, May 3, 1825, aged 77.

The principal feature in the Bishop’s character was the **** of his ***.  *** bodily indisposition, he was seldom heard to ****; but bore pain with a patient ***, well known to those about him.  He seemed so *** in his first study that the *** should not partake of the irritability of the ***.  If an expressions of impatience escaped him, it was followed by instant placability: and a restlessness discovered itself in his manner until some act of kindness, every unpleasant impression was effaced from the mind of the offended party.  His anger was never provoked *** own ***; seldom ***, except when he *** attacked; a practise in which he never *** himself, nor was able silently to endure in others.  *** NEXT VERY BLURRED - SKIPPING A FEW LINES ***

character.  Mild, quiet, humble and ***, he was ready always to attribute his rise to the preferring of his Royal Patron, rather than to his own ***.  If vanity ever discovered itself, it was when he related with honest pride the act of self-denial and integrity to which he owned his advancement.  And this, he need to thank God, he had had the grace to practice, and the King the goodness to appreciate.  Of his piety and charity it is not *** to speak: excepting ***; that his unbounded benevolence was at once the *** and fault of his character.  He wished to oblige and serve every man that approached him; and by his urbanity and accessibility, led the other **** to entertain hopes he never intended to raise, and which no human *** could realise.  Such a disposition was incompatible with the vice of avarice.  He expended a large portion of the revenue of the See in acts of benevolence, and left his Bishoprick as he came to it, the master only of his private fortune.

On Monday last the remains of the late lamented Bishop of Salisbury were interred with appropriate ceremony in St. George’s Chapel, at Windsor.  The Body was conveyed in a hearse drawn by six horses, *** with purple velvet covering and rich plumes of ostrich feathers, with escotchons and armorial bearings.  The hearse was followed by five carriages of the Royal family, one of which belonged to Prince Leopold; also by three mourning coaches with four horses each; the family carriages: the carriages of the Bishop of Bath and Wells, the Bishop of St. David’s, the Bishop of Winchester, and Bishop of St. Asaph; the carraiges of the Earl of Pembroke, Earl Nelson, Lord ***, Wadham Wyndham, Esq. and several others.  The body on entering St. George’s Church was met by the Rev. Dean and Canons, together with the Rev. Mr. ***, the Rector of Windsor, the Rev. Mr. Sumner, and the surrounding clergy.  The whole were dressed in their grand clerical orders.  The body was placed in the *** of the the Chapel.  The burial service was read by the Dean; after which the body was deposited in a vault in the Church prepared for the purpose.

A numerous meeting of inhabitants of Dorchester, who are importers and exporters of goods through the port of Weymouth, was held on Monday, when it was unaminously resolved to oppose, and to petition the House of Commons against, a Bill which is now dep***ding in Parliament, to amend and enlarge the powers of several Acts relating to the harbour of Weymouth.  C.

Mr. Pennie has published a new work entitled Scenes in Palestine, to which is added a drama, designed for school-representation.  This volume, from its conciseness, simplicity, and beauty, is likely to become a favorite with the young and the fair, and promises to have an extensive sale.  It is evidently replete with great interest, deep pathos, sweetness of diction, and sublimity of thought, highly creditable to the Author’s sacred Muse, that struck with daring but successful hand the harp of the Royal Minstrel of old to measures *** Epic *** and who gave us “in the sublime poem of Resvald” (to use the words of the Literary Chronicle) a most interesting picture of the Saxon customs and manners of our warlike ancestors.

Item: Panorama

“Procrastination is the thief of time.”

We have had the pleasure of visiting the Panorama now exhibiting in the Assembly Rooms, and can venture to pronounce it a noble specimen of the Fine Arts.  The opening scene is grand and beautiful; the succeeding views exhibit the most beautiful marine scenery that can well be imagined, with first-rate ships of war stationed along the coast of Rochefort, and Buonaparte and suite surrendering to the British.  To those who have never seen a 74 gun ship, a view of the Bellerophon laying in Torbay, with Napoleon on board, must be truly gratifying.  The rocky scenery of the exterior of St. Helena is awfully grand, with rock piled on rock, as if by magic spell.  The delicate, soft, retiring teint, so judiciously thrown over the whole of the concluding scenery, causes an agreeable play upon the eye, and produces the most delightful sensation on the mind.  The closing scene, the funeral procession of Napoleon to the grave of his own choice, gives a solemn finish to the whole.  In short, the piece possesses in our opinion, a very high degree of merit, and evinces great professional talent in the Artist.  We learn with regret, that the exhibition will finally close in the course of a few days.

To the Ladies of Salisbury and its Vicinity.

THE superior Beauty of INDIAN COLOURS, and the conspicuous excellence of the Persian Style of apply them, has long been the admiration of English Families.  Without the least knowledge of drawing, a Lady in a few lessons by this system may be made competent to copy any original, and finish it much softer, and with greater correctness, than after many months application in the ordinary way.

The Colors (which in this country are prepared only by the instructor of this method) are of very superior brilliancy, are more permanent, and are applicable to every style of drawing.  The Fluorie Stains for Glass deserve particular notice; these supersede the numerous inconveniences of vitrifying metals in muffles, stoves, &c. as generally used for coloring glass, and will permanently fix the finest transparent hues in the softest style of shading, without the least knowledge of drawing being required.

Specimens may be viewed, free of any expence, from twelve till two every day this week, at Mr. George’s Market-place; after which the inspection will close, the Instructor’s stay in this city being now limited.  The expence of being taught the art will be found very moderate, and the purchase of any colors left entirely optional.
