Ftom 'a calculation made in 1817 by Mr. John Ken nedy, one of the Yalu con,idet able cotton-spinners in Manchester, it appears that the number of persons then employed in the spinning Of 'Cotton in this country was I 10,70, that the aid they deriire.lfiom steam was equal to the Irti trt ier .. 4 24768 bogies; and that the number of spindles . rntotitil /Is '6 43853.

'Ffiis• female impostor, whose name was Josette Petrolaz, died in 1808, in the village of Maghlans, i_f4e birod the town of Close. Josette Petrolaz. the dAnieiter of a .small &tinier or peatant, about theage of twenty,' having been obliged' by sickness to keel% her bed for sante tithe,. during which she had little inclitiatiOn fcir friba. her tasting beean to be regaided as siiniething extra ordinary, and Josette was soon considere d a peat fa vonrite of the' Holy Virgin. Het' parents anti pef ctived the advantage they Might deri've from het nit: merous visitors, and they gave out that she hid ceased from food altogether, and was favoured with visions And spiritual trances, in' which she held eCtiferenceiwitli the saints and with soup in pbigifoil: Minn's' froth all parts of SAiroy now resorted to her, to ohtain lies prayers and intercessions for the sick, or for their de parted relatives, to hasten their escape from their state of painful purgation. The ben fits of her intercession were to be obtained by bOuntifid amts, given to' her fin' the poor, of which we may be assured the grea:est part was pocketted by the family i f J.)sette. The fre quency of let trance=, and the length of het devotons, were pleaded as reasons why she should cnly be visited at certain urs. The Cute, or palish priest of Magh fans, and his Curate, had the folly to be themselves de ceived, and added to the deception of others by their own faith in the miraculous powers of Josette. This contemptible fame was carried on fourteen years, dur ing which period it was asserted she had never tasted food of any kind, or risen from her bed. At length another Curate was appointed to assist in the parish,who, b. log a sensible honest nian,was determined to detect and expose the imposture. For this put pose he availed him self of the privilege of a priest to visit J9sette when he pleased ; his design tY AS discovered, and an attempt was made to poison him ; he did not, however. desist from his endeavours to discover the cheat. One summer morning he entered the house at five o'clock, and heard the noise of feet upon the floor; he rushed into the chamber, and beheld everything in great confusion, and perceived a strong smell of roasted meat in the room; the print of her feet was also visible in the dust on the floor. He charged her with having meat in htr bed, which she solemnly denied. On this he seized her by her shoulders and drew her out of bed. Her screams brought in two women, to whose care he com mitted her; and in the bed he found a supply of meat and wine, as he had expected. The cheat was thus fully exposed, and the miserable Jcseve Perrolaz disgraced. In a recent Inumtier we had the pleasure of announc ing to our readers the gratifying intellgence which we received from every part of the country of an abundant harvest. We have now to congratnlate the public upon an event of scarcely less importance—that of a most favourable seed time ; the importance of which is duly appreciated by all agriculturists. In consequence of the genial rains of August, and the continued fine weather, the potato sips have improved in every part of the country, and te-nips will prove more plentiful than was anticipated: the - fields still exhibit a most luxirriant appearance, and the cattle 'may be said lite rally to " live in clover." We cannot better describe this signally fine autumn. than in the.hornely language of a countryman, who called it a Michaelmas Summer. An iinpOrtation into the United States from Africa has recently taken place, of a number of the broid tailed breed of sheep procured from the interior of Africa, at considerable expense and trouble, by Captain Creighton, of the United States ship Cyane. This spe cies is said to be extremely valuable, not only for the wool, but the flesh; and the tail in particular, which is eight or ten inches in breadth, is esteemed a great de licacy. This is the first attempt in North America. ADULTERATIONS.—A journeyman baker, who had frequently purchased large quantities of alum at a che mist's shop in Holbbrn, called there one Saturday night in a jovial and communicative mood, and having ob tained his usual supply, he explained fully the purposes for which it was employed. He menti.ned, that when the flour was good, 20 grains of aluin was the dose con tained in a 41b. loaf, but that when bad 24 grains were necessary to produce the desired effect. A Gentleman . .

In the first volume of this work, quoting from Mr. Guest's Book on "The Cotton Ma nu'actures," the number of steam or power looms in Great Britain waz estimated at la,ooo ; that estimate was even toolow, and the probability is that there are now, in England and Scotland, not fewer than 40,000 power looms employed in the weaving of cotton alone, 8,000 of which ate in Scotland. . c INSOLE.C.NT DEBTORS' COURT...retiLLMSIIOIID.

The insolveit was put in gaol for the d. 11112205 'and costs in an actioa tried at the March Assizes, 18235) for the seduction of pits Royce, then ate.ut seienteen Or eighteen years of age. The Jury in that case' gave damages 1001. and' the tax-d costs :disowned to 644.105. the payment of which the insolvent evaded by his ab rence until about three months since, when he was ii'ked in execution. Mr. Dowling, liter alang examina tion, sat down with full confideece the Court would be ins - pressed with the heinousness of the insolvent's first offence; the manner in which he had wasted hib sub stance in living in idleness, and travelling from plate to place to evade payment of the costs and the damages 'which had been awarded to his client for the irreparable 'injury done to his daughter; the suspicions manner in which he had disposed of his property to his sister and to his brother ; that t:•' these circumstances would in• duce the Court t' visit the insolvent with such a punish.. Ment as would be a useful lesson to society. Mr. Kr:ox adAressed the Court on the part of the nsolvenr, and in allt•ion to the action for seditcain, insinuated pretty broadly, that in the opinion of the insolvent there was not so much Chastity on the pan of the Lady, or so much nice feelings on the part of the father in the transaction alluded to, as there we: anxiety to 01-.tain the kind of satisfaction which he sought in a Court of Law, and which the insolvent had declared he would never willingly pay. Mr. Knox was heard at some length, until, as he observed, he had removed the effects of the sting inflicted Fry his Learned Brother. Mr. CommissioNntt, in decidintr the case, explained two omissions, one in the form of the notice, and an• other in the absence of a paper which the insolvent had said was in the possessi of his mother. The endea vour to avoid payment of the damages and costs in the action alluded to, was no offence against the Act; and he thought from the schedule, that the petitioner was not insolvent at the time. In the absence of other causes, his euty would have compelled him to hare remanded the insolvent under the 18th clause of the Act, as relates to the seduction. The insolvent was ultimately sent back, to be brought up for judgment at the next sitting. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. Information was yesterday given to the LORD MAYOR, of a new way of raising the wind, and we take the opportunity of, as speedily as possible, announcing it, as the charitable institutions of the me tropolis may be imposed upon by similar means.—The Superin tendents of the Royal Infirmary for Children, in Waterloo-road, were waited upon by a person who said his name wis Newton, and that he bad been commissioned bt a Mn. Bailey, to pay into their Mandl, the amount of a legacy left to that Institution by the late Mrs. Barnard, of Ipswich. Ile shelved the letter, which he said communicated this instruction, to the Secretary, who was gratified at hearing of so kirid and liberal a contribution to the funds. It eias is folloirs: " Ipswich, October 13, 1825. " Ma. / 4 Attirrem—You left home for town before I had fully told you all I wanted you to do. Yon ought to have come up to me before you started. You know I am executor for the late Mrs. Frances Barnard, formerly of this place, who died at filitcham. She has left, by her will, £25 to a charitable institution called the Royal Infirmary for Children, Waterloo-road (I understand near Waterloo-bridge). As this legacy is ordered to be paid imme diately, I wish you to go and pay it, and inclose you a bill accepted by bankers in London for that purpose. The legacy is directed to be paid free of duty,so you must ask the Gentleman Secretary or Treasurer to take the trouble to pay the duty forme at the Legacy- Office, and he can send me the formal receipt when that is done. (Mr. Hammond informs me that can't be done yet, as I have not got the probate). You must, therefore, pay to the Institution £25, and .V 2. 10s. and get the Secretary to acknowledge it to you in one of their printed forms.—Your's, obediently, "J. BAILEY." There were two or three, lines which were partially erased, but they were intended to favour the imposition, and treated of com mercial transactions, viz. the sale of a cargo of wine, which the writer's brother had for sale. The letter coptained a bill of ex change, for £29 4s. which was dated Ipswich, 11th, eighth month, 1825, and drawn upon the house of Fry and Chapman, Bankers, Mildred-court, Poultry, by William Knox, and the w ords " Ac cepted, Fry and Co." were written across the face. There was not the slightest suspicion of the genuineness of the bill, and the differ ence heti:vein the amount Of the pretended legacy, including the duty, was banded over with the most sincere and hearty thanks to the welcome visitor, who pocketed no more than £1 14s. by his hazardous enterprise, and who certainly might have as safely specu lated upon treble that sum. The bill was, we believe, passed into oilier hands, when it was found iha: the seellptance was a forgery. -Every inquiry via. niade into the circumstances mentioned in the letter which contained the bill, but it was ascertained that the detail was in feety particular a fabricatftin.

The Earl of Damell (late Lord Eanismore) appeared by his So. licitor, to the summons of the notorious Johnson, on account of one of his servants having nude use of a cart in his service with his Lordship's name chalked on it. The Solicher pleaded, in ex tenuation, that it was totally without the k.owledge of the Sari. Mr. Mats lined him in the lowest penalty of 401. and costs. Walk* Thyfor was brought before Mr. 14.u.sa, charged with robbing the strop of aft. Hose, a jeweller, in the Strand, of a gold watch. On Tuesday, the prisoner went into the shop, and re quested to look at a mouthing ring. The one he was shewn proving toy large, he was about to leave the Shop, When he was detained by a person named Tokely. The latter, knowing the prisoner to be a suspicious character, followed him into the shop, and observed him take a gold watch. This, on being seised, he let fill. It was picked up, and he was taken into custody. The prisoner denied baying taken the watch.—He was committed for trial. 11 A 170 N-G ARDEN. St:armrest Means..—Two of the How-street Patrol waited upon Mr. Boozes, the Alagistrate, and informed him that yesterday morhing, as some boys *erc at play near a stagnant pool of water in the Bagnigge Wells fields, where some excavations had been lately made for mould, they found the fragments of a linen shirt, which was saturated with bleed, and enfolded in it was sonic hair, and part t,f a human skulL Thr whole was wrapped up in a piece of coarse clntu. The patrol added, that in consequence of the lonelinemi of the roads in that neighbourhood, many robberies had taken place. The Magistrate directed all the officers to make inquiry into this horrible affair. NARY-LA-BONNE. john Dacy, an Irish labourer, was yesterday brought before Mr. Rawlinson, charged with an assault. It appeared in evidence that Bury, a stonemason, was on Tuesday night passing along Lisson-grove, when he received a violent blow (tom die prisoner.

Before this cast we, celled on, a Ur. W.

Ile sa id that, from Saturday night till Alonday night, the public-houses in Lisson•grove and its neighbourhood were scenes of the most disgraceful riot and confusion. At night the in habitants were continually being alarmed by the springing of the watchmen's rattles, the said rattle•spr inging being the extent of the watchmen's interference, for it seldom or ever happened that they brats ht any of the c.fiendvrs to justice, and he therefore believed thattherc was some understanding between Ike watchmen and the pnblicdna. i sir.

According to Mrs. Kilpack's statement, and which was not contradicted by the defendant, Mr. Kilpack, bad deserted his wife and married 'Alm Simpson.
