This is at once an e'egant, an instructing, and highly amusing work, (tom which much interesting informa tion ma y be derived respecting the subject of which it treats. The author has taken uncommon pains to bring forward everything to be met with in ancient authors respecting the vintage in the earliest ages. In reference to later times, he has collected pretty ample information respecting the Monkish periods of our own history, when the vine was cultivated in many pacts of England, and with considerable success by the learned priests of that time. It does not appear, however, that the vineyards were so numerous as some have believed. " In the time of Bede, it is clear that they were few lit number. In Domesday Book mention is made of them about eight and-thirty times ; and most of those which were planted, after the Conquest either belonged to the monasteries , or were cultivated by wealthy individuals, for amuse ment rather than profit. But foreign wine was already in general use; and as it could be had of much better quality, and probably at less expense, than what was produced in the island, it is not likely that the supply of the latter was ever sufficient for the consumption of the country." In the time of Richard 11. la foreign wines were imported annually to a large amount. As they came into general use, most of the vineyards were naturally suffered to fall into decay." After detailing pretty folly the history of the vine yards of Britain doss n to the period last mentioned, Dr. Henderson lays before his readers an account of several attempts made in more recent times to revive this species of culture, and to manufacture wines from English grapes. A Captain Toke is mentioned, on the authority of Philipot, as having cultivated the vine at Godington, in Kent, with such success that the wine 4. seemed not may to parallel, but almost to outtival that of 'France; and for some years the Duke of Norfolk made a consider able quantity of wine from a vineyard at Arundel Castle, which according to the report of a writer in the Nilsen»: Rusticum, excelled much of the Burgundy imported into this country, though he ad mits it was not' of quite so fine a flavour as the wines of Beaune.' Between thirty and forty years ago, Sir Richard Worsley, in order to give the experiment every chance of success, procured some of the most hardy species of vines, planted them in a rocky soil, with a south-eastern exposure, at St. Laurence, in the Isle of Wight, and eegagetl o a vine-dresser from France to su perintend their culture. The result was, that in one or two favourable year s a tolerable crop of grapes was ob tained : but eventually the cold springs and early autumns weakened the pliints, and blighted the produce, and the scheme was soon entirely abandoned. It must, however; be acknowledged, that, notwithstanding the general mildness of the climate of the Isle of Wight, the spot chosen by Sir Richard was not the best adapted for a vineyard ; for it is close upon the sea, and conse quently much exposed to the cold winds which prevail in the Channel, especially at the time when the vine begins to bud. The endeavours of Mr. Hamilton, at Painshill, were rather more fortunate in the issue. As the account he has given of his operations stews not only the difficulties with which be had to contend, but also the manner in which he succeeded in conquering them, it may serve as a record of what can be accom plished in this way, by there who can afford the ex pense, and have sufficient perseverance to perfect the experiment. The vineyard at Painshill; he observes, in a com munication to Sir E. Barry, is situated on the south side of a gentle bill, the soil a gravelly sand. It is planted entirely with the two sorts of Burgundy grapes —the linden:at, which is the most delicate, but the tenderest: and the miller grape, commonly called the black cluster, which is more hardy. The first year, I attempted to make red wine, in the u-ual way, by treading the grapes, then letting them ferment in a vat, till all the husks and impurities formed a thick crust at the top, the boiling ceased, and the clear wine was drawn off from the bottom. " This essay did not answer: the wine was so very harsh and austere, that 1 despaired of ever making red wine fit to drink ; but through that harshness 1 perceived a flavour something like that of some small French white wines, which made me hope I should succeed better with white urine. That experiment succeeded far beyond my most .sanguine expectations; for the very first year 1 made white wine, it nearly resembled the flavour of Champagne ; and in two or three years more, as the vines grew stronger, to my great amazement, my wine had a finer flavour than the best Champagne I ever tasted ; the first running was as clear as spirits, the second running was aril de perdrix, and both of them spat kled and creamed in the glass like Champagne. It would be endless to mention how many good judges of wine were deceived by my aim:, and thought it su perior to any Champagne they ever drank ; even the Duke de Mirearix preferred it to any other wire; but such is the 1 rejudice of most people against anything of English growth, I generally found it most prudent not to declare where it grew, till after they had passed their verdict upon it. The surest proof I can give of its excellence is, that 1 have sold it to wine-merchants ler fifty guineas a hogshead ; and Onewine-merchant, to whom I sold five hundred pounds worth at one time, assured me, he sold some of the best of it I torn 7s. 6d. to 10s. 6d. pet bottle. " After many years experience, the best method I found 1,1 making and managing it was this :-1 let the grapes hang till they had got ail the maturity the sea son would give them ; then they were carefully cut off with scissars, and brought home to the Wine-barn in small quantities, to prevent their heating. or pressing one another ; then they were all picked off the stalks, and all the meuidy or green ones were di.carded be fore they were put upon the press, where they were all pressed in a te.v hours after they were gathered; much ould run from them before the press squeezed them, from their own weight upon one another. This running um_ .‘„ c.a..1 as water ; and sweet as syrap, and all this r-7-- - . En) . itiV.-1).,.., tt, 'CO ' • 1 1 1S, -a 40.... ~.- _4 t ifr ' 2 " -, ' 1••• ; of the first pressing, and part of the second, continued white; the other pressings grew reddish, and were not mixed with the best. As fast as the wine ran from the press into a large receiver, it was put into the hogs heads and closely bunged up. In a few hcurs one could hear the fermentation begin, which would soon burst the casks, if not guarded against, by !looping them strongly with iron, and securing them in strong wooden frames, and the heads with wedges; in the height of the fermentation, I have frequently seen the n ine oozing through the pores of the staves. 4 ' These hogsheads were left all the depth' of winter in the cool barn, to reap the benefit of the frosts. Whet toe fermentation was over, which was easily di,covered by the cessation of noise and oozing ; but to be more certain, by pegging the cask, when it would be quite clear ; then it was racked off into clean hogsheads, and carried to the vaults, before any warmth of weather could raise a second fermentation. In March the hogs heads wer e examined ; if any were not quite fine, they were fined down with common fish glue, in the usual manner: those that were fine of themselves were not fined down, and all were bottled about the end of March, and in about six weeks more would be in perfect order for drinking, and would be in their prime for above one year; but the second year the flavour and sweetness would abate, and would gradually decline, till at last it lost all flavour and sweetness ; and some that I kept sixteen years became so like old hock, that it might pass for such to one who was not a perfect connoisseur. The only art I ever used to it was putting three Founds of white sugar candy to some of the hogsheads when the wine was first tunnel from the press, in order to con form to a rage that prevailed, to drink none but the very sweet champagne. " < I ant convinced much good wine might be made in many parts of the south of England. Many parts are south of Painsliiil, many soils may yet be fitter for it, and many situations must be so; for mine was much exposed to the south-west wind (the worst of all for vines), and the declivity was rather too steep; yet with these disadvantages it succeeded many years. Indeed, the uncertainty of our climate is against it, and many hne crops have been spoiled by May frosts and wet summers; but one good year balances many disap pointment;."' We cannot close our notice of this tasteful volume without mentioning the engravings, which at once il lustrate and embellish the work. They are executed on wood, in the first stile, by Mr. Harvey, and are highly creditable to the artist. SIR THOMAS LAWRENCE, " In Sir Thomas we behold a memorable instance of mighty talent, after many aberrations from good taste, after many flights of fancy beyond the boundaries of truth, after sweeping on fantastic wings the dazzling regions of fiction, returning with new ardour to that path which can only lead to fame. When we behold this moral phenomenon, we are disposed to rejoice, as on the return of some loved prodigal, who having seen his error, shines the more brightly, as he proceeds to eclipse his former self. At the period of which we speak, this great painter had indulged in a specious, though brilliant style of painting, which had so much of ge nius to rescue k from censure, that it was tolerated, and bailed for a time with such eclat, that it went nigh to corrupt the English school. With no competitor to keep pace with him in his career, we feared that prosper ity would have spoiled him; but that superior taste which enabled him early in life to do that which called forth the admiration of Sir Joshua Reynolds, has left its wan derings, and with all the subsequent experience of thirty years of active exertion, has renovated and resolved it self into a course of study that is no less complimen ' tary to his judgment, than hoqourable to modem art. We have regarded the recent improvement of the Pre sident with peculiar satisfaction, having in common with those who honour genius, felt that by not doing entire justice to his own rare talent, the country would be frustrated in the proud hope of seeing a contemporary whom 'posterity should regard, as we regard, a Rey nolds or Vandyck. Of this we now have nought to fear. The portrait of the daughter of our late vene rated Sovereign (by Sir Thomas), is a work that would have gi aced the highest school of old. It is finely drawn, admirable in colour, unaffected in style, and expressive of that benignity of countenance, and dignity of mien, that adorns the Royal prototype—a Lady whose virtues are truly worthy of her Royal parentage."—Somerset House Gazette. CEMETERY OF PARE LA CHAISE.-1 went, says a re cent visitor to Paris, to the Pere la Chaise, where, amid an infinity of flowers, the singing of birds, and the finest views of Paris and the country, are deposited the re mains of most of the Parisians; they :ire arranged in parallelograms of about eight feet by four, surrounded with railing, the interior forming a garden; on the points of the head-stone are hung garlands, and some have vases in glass cases, filled with the bloom of the orange. There are also very beautiful monuments in marble, and vaults of considerable magnitude belong ing to families ; in short, it was one of the most inte resting objects that I have seen. When a once celebrated actress made her entri' as Lady Townley, some years since in Dublin, three high bred women of fashion, in the stage-box, grossly an noyed her by talking loud, coughing, &c. The actress, greatly distressed, stopped, burst into tears, and retired. ' The Ladies, unabashed, for a moment enjoyed their triumph, when a great uproar ensued, and 44 Go on, go on," was heard from all parts of the house. At length a young collegian jumped on one of the benches in the n.iddle of the pit, and exclaimed to the audience," My friends who sit about me are determined that the play shall not go on till those three drunken Gonknten in women's clothes leave the stage-box." This address was universally applauded, and the Amazonians retired in the utmost confusion, amidst the shouts and hisses of the spectators. PUNISHMENTS IN FRANCE.—A traveller thus de set ibes the mode of punishment for misdemeanours in France: .6 On my return from Vincennes, I saw An ex hibition of the mode in which the French punish cri minals for misdemeanours: before the Palais de Justice, a scaffold was erected, upon which nine criminals were placed ; it is called Le Catcall ; it is a square. upon tin ee sides of which were stationed three of the sufferers, their backs were supported by a board, on which was an inset ipuon, describing their names, their ages, their their punishment, and pat titular act that in curred this penalty there was one for lot gery, lie was condemned to be exposed one hour de Caican, and his :ight shoulder branded with the letter F ; another, a )outh of sixteen, who seemed deeply affected by his situatio n , to an h our o f Cattail, and five years of se (fusion, that he might be withdrawn from his asso ciates, and eventually restored a more wort!ty member of society." LAW REPORT. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, MAY es. nWEN b. NODEN. This was a question between the above Rev. plain tiff, the Rector of St. Olive, Hart-street, London, and the defendant, an In!iabitant within the Rectory, v•ho resisted the paymeer of 2s. 9d. in the pound claimed by !he Rector for parochial tithe. The question came be fore the Court by demutrer, upon a bill which. played . that an account might be taken of the several sums of money due for tithes :o the plaintiff for groen d which the defendant held and occupied within the Recto, y, since March, 1523, at the rate of 2s. 9.1. per pound,: upon the valite of the premises, according to the Act of Henry the VIII. for regulatiny. tithes within the City of London. The defendant residing within the plaintiff's Rectory, he claimed such tithes under the Act before named. The defendant resisted the payment t n several grounds, patticularly that the stipulation mace by the Archbishop of Canterbury, in the reign of Henry VIII. was not duly enroile.f, and that a different arrarige ment. had long prevailed in the pat ish of St. Olave, re specting tithes. Mr. COMMON SERJEANT, in support of the demurrer, said, that as the plaintiff asserted, that it the Act of Henry the Eighth was not a good title, there was a still older statute, which empowered him to receive 3;. sd. in the pound, and he started a third right, which, said, according to particulat usage, gave him another sum, and until the Rector had settled on which of tie three he would make out his title, the defendant had a right to demur. Mr. MARTIN was about to argue in support of the plaintiff's bill, when the COURT interrupted him, and 'ejected the demurrer. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, MAY 22. • The Court was occupied the greatest portion of the day on the Crown paper. The only case worth men tioning (and that was one of considerable impo►t• mice), was THE KING V. LORD YARBOROUGIL This was an inquisition to determine whether ce►tain salt marshes on the coast of Lincolnshire were derelict' by the sea, and consequently vested in the Crown by' virtue of the King's prerogative. The inquisition uas found for the defendant, and being traversed by the Crown, the principal issue raised was, whether the marsh land in question had been formed by the gradual and imperceptible deposit of alluvial matter, by the flux and reflux of the sea ? This issue was found in favour of the defendant at the last Summer Assizes for Lin colnshire,and a motion having been made in Michaelmas Term for a new trial, the Court then directed the ques tion to be discussed in the form of a special case. After hearing Mr. Gowan/tor for the Crown, and Mr. S. M. PHILLIPS for the defendant, the Court took time to consider its judgment. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, MAY 22. DAVIS V. TILE BANK OF ENGLAND. The plaintiff in this case was the brother of that un fortunate individual, who, by a forgery upon the Bank, drew out almost all his brother's property. The forgery was committed in the month tA October, 1819, and was not discovered till some months afterwards. The plain tiff had not notice of the forgery until after his brother was taken into custody for another forgery on Messrs. Drummond, which was early in the month of the suc ceeding April. From that time to the following Sep tember, the plaintiff took no steps whatever, when he executed a power of attorney, authorising his broker to transfer all his stock in the Bank. When this power was presented to the Bank, the broker was informed that all the stock had been already transferred nearly twelve months before. The plaintiff then brought an action against the Bank to recover the amount of the stock thus improperly transferred. The declaration con tained two sets of counts, one of which was for having illegally transferred the, stock in 1819, and the other for refusing to transfer under the plaintiff's order in 1820. The case had been twice tried, and a special verdict had been found, stating the circumstances, and declaring that in the opinion of the Jury, the plaintiff had not adopted the act of his brother, unless the concealment of the forgery ftorn March to September, 1822, amounted to such an adoption. The case was argued on Thursday last, by Mr. Serjeant Osiscovv for the pl tin tiff; and by Mr. Serjeant LENS for the defendants. The question being whether, on all the facts of the case, the plaintiff had not deprived himself of the right of reco vering by his concealment of the forgery? The Court took time'to consider a question which they stated to be of an entirely novel kind, involving points of consider able difficulty and importance. On this day their Lord ships said the case had been very welt argued, but they conceived it to be of such importance that they should prefer having it re-argued next Term, when the Court would be full. The fitting of the GRIPER, Captain LYON, at Dept ford, proceeds with the greatest rapidity, and great numbers of visitors daily go on board, who enter their several names in a book prepared for that purpose. Neatly all the stores are embarked, and among them is an extensive supply of pounded dried beef, to which melted fat has been added, and prepared after the man net practised by the Indians in the northern parts of America, and called pen ',nicer, but which they make of ( venison dried in the sun, or over large fires. A large quantity of gum Arabic is also on board, to he used by the party who proceed on the land expedition. The !GRIPER will leave Deptford on the Ist of next month, for Northfleet, and there receive on board the mathe matical instruments, after which she will drop down to the Nore, for the officers and men to be paid their wages, and sail direct to Repulse Bay. A somewhat curious correspondence has taken place between the Catholic Board in Dublin, and Earl GREY and Mr. Bnotrotram, upon the subject of the Catholic Claims. It appears that in the Petition which has been this year prepared for Pat 'lament, such an extension is given to the demands of the Catholics, that neither Earl GREY nor Mr. BROUGHAM can support those demands. Both the Noble Earl and Mr. Bnouonam, however, ex mess their willingness to present the Petition, such as it is, with the understanding that they will accompany it with a declaration of their non-concurrence with certain parts of it. To this the Catholic Association a.sented by a unanimous vote. The first prayer of the Petition is for a reformation in the temporalities in the Church Establishment of behold. The second prayer of the Petition is for the better regulation of Juries. The third prayer of the Petition is for the disfranchisement of Corporations. The fourth prayer of the Petition is for the removal of the disqualifications to which Catho lics ale now subjec'. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

Evils, a Gentleman of proper, , !, Shropshire, was b: ought before Sir Ittessasin Blame and Mr. M ix . totem., from St. Martin's watch-house, on Saturday morn charged with having made a great rout at the Duchess of Nottlinni. berlaild's rout, on Friday night ; and also with having violently a.- saulted a constable who was trying to teach him b..-tier manners, Everybody knows—at least every fashiodable body knows—that there was a superlatively splendid rout at Not:bombs rland House, on Friday night ; and everybody iti.ows that a superlatively splendid rout is always attended with a good dear of confusion, both within and without the house in which the ,aid tout assay i - e given —a con fusion of feathers and flowers, and furbelows anu iriitpei y, and ham vvigs, pines, ices, champagne, old hock, and candelabra within th e i house ; and a confusion of tongues, whips, poles, pai n ted., and clat tering hoofs without—its both, w. a kinds of ceinusitat, Friday night's rout at Northumberland I louse was by ?to means deficient. Now it appears that in the very midst of ad the bustle, when the rout w at its height, just at otte o'clock in the itov.iliog, the Shrop shire Gentleman alsovementioned, insineated into :he inner court, and began pestering the porters at the door of the mansion with a muitiplicity of que'...;otts touching the nature of ti.e entertain. norm, the names, style, and titles of the company, &c. &c. and th .t time porters not having any relish for such pestering, called to a constable to remove the said Shropshire Gentleman from the ntz. mists. The constable, iitainig hid tongue of no use, laid hi, hana upon the Gentleman's shoulder, and attempted to remove him in• turce—and then the Gentleman knocked the constable dow;:. Th e constable got up again, and attempted to seize. Ilia Gentleman; but before he could do so, the Gentleman knocked him down again by a viciously-directed hit on the nose, ia nil then the Gets:it:man was taken away, vi et armis, and shut up in the watch-house. In his defence before the Magistrates he had little to s a y, that he should not have intruded himself into the inner court, if he had not found everybody, even the constable himself, estreme.y civil to bins ; and that he conceived himself justified in knocking down any man who dared to lay hands un its the public streets. Their Worships ordered the ..iinopshire Gentleman to put in hail to answer for the assault at time next Wastmitisticr Sessions, tl - otn;:i he complained that it would detain Win in town much loNer thial he wished.

The prosecutrix and her husband had lately been occueLd in furnishing some premises near the prisunet's residence ; her attention being attracted by some bedsteads, she went in to examine them while her husband remained outside; having examined the bedsteads she fount: they would not suit her and went up stairs, at the prisoner's sugg , :s•it , n, to examine others; there he attempted to take liberties with her pewit, which ,he re ' renting, he threw her down and effected his purpose. She ilium:- diately left the house, communicated the outrage to the neighbour, and in less than half an hour the prisoner was apprehended. On Saturday morning he was brought up, and the husband stated his wife was confined to her bed in consequence of the irjary she had received and was unable to attend ; a certificate was also handed in, vet Vying the fact stated. The pi iioner was therefore remanded. RCCI.ItSIASTICAL PROMOTIONS. The Rev.
