INNET, PRAYER ox ENTERING CHUM!. As 1, 0 Oen, draw near thy holy place, • Whki■ whose precincts by thy sock is heard, Etch Sabbath Day, the preaching of thy Weed, Upon my heart let fall thy Issavealy prase Let no intraday earthly thoughts debase The yarn I oiler up ; but may my salad Be pure, wad, far as carnal dross permits, riled As those blest Deluge who behold thy face; Let not my eye seek objects for its gam, But fix a pious and attentive took, Or on the Pastor, or thy Holy Book ; Whilst my glad tongue responds the words of praise: So shall my soul from this world's follies soar, .And, in the spirit that thou lov'st, adore? Mr. BAILEY, who fell in the late duel' near Lou don, was son of SEXTON BAILEY, of the North Strand, 1-,imerick, Esq. Monday se nnight, Mr. STEPIIEN WALTER, a brick layer, of Marden, while employed in repairing the foundation of a vault belonging to the poor-house there, the whole building suddenly fell down, which caused his death in a few hours afterwards. _ _ Tuesday se'nnight, a large boat, laden with slates, proceeding from Killaloe to Limerick, was precipi tated aga►nst one of the peers of O'Brien's Bridge by the violence of the great flood thee. in the Shan non ; the boat went to pieces, and two of the crew were unfortunately drowned. A letter from Basle, dated January I,7th, says, " We Lave received from Cairo, the melancholy news that Mr. Louis Burkhard, the youngest son of Colonel Gideon Burkhard, had died there of a dysentery, un der the assumed name of Sheik Ibrahim. Mr. Louis Burkhard, who was ardent, enterprising, and animat ed with the desire of acquiring knowledge being in Elgland, offered his services to the English Associa tion for making discoveries in the interior of Africa. After, having learned the languages, and acquired knowledge necessary for a journey of this kind, he set off some years ago, and repaired to Cairo to join the Caravan, which comes very year from Tarnbuc- t o, and to penetrate into that country, which his hitherto been inaccessible to Europeans, but some • tr 4, ibles which broke out in that part of the world hindered the arrival of this caravan far a whole year. Aided by his musselman costume, and his perfect know.' Age of the Arabic and Turkish language, Mr. 13u-I:hLrd had made a great number of new and im portant discoveries, which the English Association will probably publish. At length this caravan, which had been so long and impatiently expected, arrived ; but before he could depart with it, Mr. Burkhard sink %nyder the disorder, and his death has destroyed the most flattering hopes. The distance from his own cJintly had not lessened Lis attachment to it. In the course of last winter he sent a bill of exchange for a considerable sum for the relief of the poor." The Hon. H. GREY BENNETT has exerted, himself very laudably in exposing, of late, the abuses of N.!-Tate, and we hope much good will result from Cie inquiry. But there is another subject eclually worthy of investigation with the prisons for felons, n....nely, those for Lunlfics: many oldie Mad•honses i,. this country being little better than dismal cells, c ilculated evidently to make a sound man mad, but quite inadequate to make a madman sane. We are i uformed, by Gentlemen who have made it their bu siness to visit them, that notwithstanding the late Re ports before the House of Commons, there are abuses ia these Insiwtions, at the very recital of which hu nianity and common sense must shudder. The Parish of Leyton, in Essex, have adopted the following novel mode of employing the poor, namely, that of drawing carts. A considerable opposition having been made to the measure by the liberal in- habitants of Leyton, it gave rise to' the following epigram : " Thla cart is drawn by .?s-es ; Wlrat, do you mean ./a4-asses? No, no, I mean Thant-afttes, Nei, Peters, and Nit V-aars. 0, all ye Lads and Lass -t, Throw forth your doleful .!!as-es ! England come to a f tic pass When carts are draw by such Asres !" 11.ursday moraing an Excise Officer, from Alfri ston, laid several informations against persons, at Briglaon, keeping liquor shops, and retailing spirits without licences. They were heard before the Ma gistrates, at the Town Hall, and fines were levied ttpon some of the parties.—During the examinations, a nu merous party of boys and women had collected a'iout the Town Hall, and as the officer was retiring, be was assailed with eggs, mud, and other missiles. The cry of a general informer became so prevalent, that few persons sympathised in the hunt that took place round the Steyne, after the Exciseman, which was continued for upwards of an hour, during which time he was assailed in the most violent manner. At length a Gentleman rescued the officer from the fury of the populace, and with the assistance of the High Constable, he was conveyed to the workhouse in a very dangerous state. Mr. CONYSites crack fox-hounds had one of the finest runs on Saturday last ever witnessed in Essex. They rt I the fox from scent to view, for 35 minutes,' without a single check, and killed in the highest stile between Canfield Mount and Dunmow Highwood. As partridge shooting ends the Ist of February, whoever has them in the ir possession after that day will be liable to a penalty of 51. per bird. Brazier, the Kent man, who ran the Chicken Butcher on the 20th of this month, one mile, and was beat, is n-Av matched to run him again, one mile and a guar tle, for 100 guineas, to take place on Monday next, the 2d February, at the Three Pigeons, on the Rom ford (toad-5 to 4 in favour of the Chicken Butcher. A few nights since, the house of Mr. Humus, an oilman, in King -street, Seven Dials, was broke open by robbers, who were- prevented from carrying off the property they had packed up in readiness for that p.;..pose by an extraordinary circumstance :—A son and daughter, who sleep in the attics, and whose' rooms are only separeued by a thin partition,, were' awakened by a noise, but ti:ey did not know the' cause. However, tie' son was completely awoke, by one of the robbers lifting an article o f hi s d ress off a hook in his bed-room, and a sword hanging on the same hook fell off in consequence.. The youth, who i s only seventeen years or age, then jumped up, at ucked the robber with it, and it entered some part of his body upwards of five inches, by the stain of blood. The robber escaped out of. the window.. • I .. 5 t, I I 4 1 I . • I . I 1 POLICE. Mmumostotrou-trarer.--Yestordsy Mr. Riaroa7 the engraver, who stands charged with holding forged five pounds note without lawful excuse, us , derwent a third examination. On the first inquiry Mr. Ranson was committed so the House of Correc tion, but orr the second examination he was admitted to bail. It was understood by the Magistrate, and also by the Bank Solicitor, that Mr. Ranson would give up the forged note on this occasion, but he refu sed to do so. _ _ _ _ • "...NO NO , Maw Mr. Warrwoos reminded the accused that he had pledged himself to give up the note at this eramina tion, and it was lien these grounds that he did not oppose the application for bail. Tne Soil citor stated that he had only one course to pursue, and that course he must take, with great reluctance. Mr. Ranson stated that it was the first time in his life that he had forfeited his word, but his own feel ings dictated to him that he was right. He felt re morse at . ivhat he had promised, but he never would consent to give up the note. Mr. Wzarwoon said, that it was his duty to re quest that Mr. Ranson be remanded for a week, as he was not prepared exactly how to act. He had,come there under an apprehension that the defendant would have kept his word and given up the note. He had communicated such to the Bank, and it would be for him to receive further instructions upon the case. The Magistrate stated, that he did not, in the ex ercise of his duty, press the prosecution in a case where doubts existed ;. but he thought it right to postpone the case for a week, as the Bank Solicitor had atten cled with provisional direct=-ms, expecting tLe. note would be given up. Under these peculiar circum- I stances, the case should stand over for a week. Bail was proposed, to which the Solicitor for Cie Bank did not object. GUILDIIALL,..ZORGEIr Norr.s.--Yesterday Tho *as Porter, a youth of about seventeen years of age, was finally examined, charged with uttering a great number of forged Bank of England notes. Mr. Wood, printer, of Poppuis-court, Fleet-street, stated, that the prisoner was his apprentice. In De cember last, Mr. Dale, a licensed victualler, residing in file same place, came to him with a one pound note, which he said he had received of him (Mr. Wood) and which had been returned from the Bank as a forgery. The witness said he had no recollec tion of having passed such a note, upon which Mr. Dale said it was brought to him by the prisoner, who requested change for his master. The witness pro ceeded to the press-room to question the priso ter about it, but he had absconded. A .short time after he was summoned by several persons to the Court of Requests, for the amount of bank notes which had been passed to them by the prisoner in the name of the witness, and which had been declared at the Bank to be forgeries. He said he knew nothing of the notes, but he was compelled, nevertheless, to pay the amount, which was very considerable. Some few weeks since a letter was received from the prisoner, to the effect that he had uttered A great number of forged notes in the name of his master, that he was about to leive the country, and that he had written to Mr. Wood in order to exculpate his fellow appren tice, whose name he had written upon several of the notes. No more was heard of him until Wednesday sennight, when he surrendered himself to an officer. John Flower, shopman to Guest, the pawnbroker in Fleet Market, stated, that the prisoner came on the Ist, the Bth, and again on the 11th of November last, and each time pledged a watch, which he redeemed in a few hours with a one pound note. The three notes afterwards proved to be forgeries. A young Lady, named Stephens, niece to Mr. Oil ier, of Fleet Market, received several notes from the prisoner, all of which proved to be forged. Mr. Ballard, of Fleet-lane, baker ; Mr. Butler, of Fleet-street ; Mr. Dale, of Poppin's-court ; Mr. Pros ser, of Leonard -street, and several other persons pre ferred similar charges.--Fully committed for trial. Mr. Wcod said, he had every reason to believe that the.unfortunate young man had been made the instrument of a very near relation, who was known to be a person of the most abandoned character. The Solicitor to the Bank advised Mr. Wood to mention the circumstance at the trial, and it would, no doubt, prove the means of clemency being shewn to the prisoner. Wonsme•rrneer—The tradesmen, at Hackney, have of late suffered materially from the quantity of base and counterfeit silver passed in the village by strangers. On Thursday evening a man, respectably dressed, came into the Mermaid Tavern, called for a grass of porter, and tendered a good shilling in pay ment ; but recollecting himself, he took it up, saying he had halfpence ; after feeling his pockets he had no halfpence, and he put down a had shilling—this created suspicion, and _information was given to I Merry and Garva, constables, who, in consequence, watched him. He met a good looking female, with whom he was some time in conversation, and then he went to the house of Mr. Fryer, pastry cook, and offered another bad shilling for a cake ; he bought a penny orange at the shop of Mr. Black, fruiterer, and offered anodier bad shilling ; the constable, Merry, here rushed in and took him into custody. He pro ceeded with him quietly until he came in sight of the woman, to whom he made a signal to be off, and instantly he knocked down both the constables, and fought so desperately that lie would have escaped from them both, but for the assistance of the inhabi tants ; it required the efforts of four men to handcuff him. The woman attempted to run away, and flung a quantity of had shillings amongst the grass, which were found, the man had 14s. and only one bad amongst them. On being brought before Kr. Dick enson, they refused giving their names, but on being locked up separately, the woman said she was the wife of the man prisoner, whose name is John Sitns. They were both committed to the House of Correc tion until the Solicitor for the Mint attends. Thursday night the house of THouns Evs Esq. one of the M ag i strates o f Union Hall, was , broken open, and the glasses of his chariot and a coachman's boz coat were stolen. This is th e tilt}, depredation of a similar nature that has been coni mitted on Mr. EVANCE. On the night preceding the above robbery, an attempt was made to break open the coach-house of Mr. Comm, of Croydon, one of, the Surrey Magistrates, which was defeated by the vigilance of a dog on the premises, whose barking l alarmed the funily. mew •60/1.

LIVERPOOL COMMERCE.—The whole impost of Cot ton into Great Britain in 1817 is estimated at 4179,291 packages of various sizes, weighing by com putation 131,951,200 lbs. which at an average of is. 6d. per lb. would amount to nearly 10 millions sterling ; a most astonishing sum for the raw material of a rsgle manufacture! The greater part of this immense importation has been brought into this port. This quantity exceeds the imports of 1815 and 1816, severally, by about 110,000 bags, weighing about .0.,000,000 lb. or upwards of two millions sterling. LOVE CONQUERS ALL !—The following anecdote is a further proof of the truth contained in the aboie proverb : Some days ago a young woman applied at the Fever Hospital of Carlow, to have her brother admitted a patinn, which was immediately complied with.

The lady is the proprietor of - a lodg ing-house in Carlow. When discovered in the above situation, she acknowledged that she was not the manes sister, but his top, and ihr advanced in pregnancy. 4 F:A7 CIR C V ITS. The Judges met in the King's Bench T.
