V the Glasgow frigate has arrived here this afternoon from Alexandria, and brings official news to this Govern ment that the Pacha of Egypt had stopped all ship. ments of gr sin. cotton, &c. in foreign ves•els. Tbe•e were sever al English vessels at Alexandria, and one of them had already been compelled to relaud her carg^• It is supposed that this measure arises from the Russian declaration of war against the Porte. The Glasgow brings the crew of his Majesty's ship Parthian, 'Which was wreckei near Alexandria on the 15th' ultimo.

Last night Sir HENRY PARN6LL. the Chairman tithe Finance Committee, presented the third report upon the income and expenditure of the kingdom. This report relates exclusively to pensions and superannuations. It is like the preceding one from this Committee, a balky document, from its comprehemii9g vatiety of details, both of calculation and reference to evidence. But, in .übstance, it proposes to bring back the principle s f t he pensions fur widows w its tot flier plan (that acted upon in the year 1822, and subsequently repealed)—vis. that 'widows are to forfeit their pensions if they contract fresh marriages, or it they derive from any source an income double the am u..t of the pension. That the different clet its and officers in the service of Government are to contribute out of their salaries to their ►uperannuation fund ; but that a distinction is to be drawn between the clerks now in office and their , successors—the former are to contribute upon a gra duated scale, beginning at 2 3 1 per cent. and ascending to 31. 101. and. higher, according to the amount of their respective salari-s, while the latter are not to have the same advantages upon similar terms. This Report, like those which have preceded it, ex hibits the degree of labour and tesearch to which the Finance Committee have devoted themselves.

My father was always reckoned a good shdantaker— I never heard that he cobbled his work."

HENDERSON, the celebrated actor, used tof2SSert the following to be a fact; and in this he was conhtmed by his brother.

CLAIRE ELECTION. PROM THI DUBLIN MORNING REGISTER, JUNI 24. A messenger arrived in tqwn at a late hour last night having passed with incredible speed from Clare. He aon , )unces the extraordinary and unexpected Itct that Major M'Namara declines to stand, alleging that be is under personal obligations to Mr. Vesey Fitzgerald.— This being the case, of course O'Connell is to be the candidate for Clare. The messenger relates such trans actions as prove that Waterford, Louth, Monaghan, or Westmeath, presented nothing (pal to the scenes now passing in Clare. Any man that comes forward on behalf of the people will have an easy walk over the course, and what has not the man of the people to expect? Obl THE FREEMAN S JOURNAL, JUNE 25. Whatever may be the result of the opposuion to Mr. VEEET FITZGERALD'S re.el..:•ction for Clare, it was in cumbent upon the Catholics to instruct the unprincipled portion of the Irish representation by some such lessol. We have it, upon the most unquestionable autho. tity, that on a hate occasion, when several matters of the deepest interest to Ireland were to have been entet mined and discussed in the House of Commons, five Irish Members alone were present. The constituency ' of the country ought, thereore, even upon this general ' ground, to keep a close eye upon their representatives. A vtite for the Catholic Question has been long re. garded, and even Cried up by some of the leaders them selves, as the charity which ought to cover the multitu dinnus delinquencies of some of the Irish Memhers.— Principle is at length about to become their mentor. — It is now confessed that a man may vote against the Minister upon this question, and even thus' voting be the worst of Irishmen. there are counties, however, beside Clare, to which, if they do not soon abandon their newly.recognised rule, the Members of the Catholic Association ought without delAy to look. WESTMINSTER SESSIONS. These Sessions commenced yesterday before Mr. COMM, Chairman ; but the cases disposed of were. of littli interest: A sturdy • fellow, named Mead, one of those nuisances called " cads," who infest the vicinity of the coach offices in Piccadilly and Ozford-street, was charged on an indictment with committing an outrageous assault on the person of a soldier, named Platt, belonging,to the Foot Guards. The plaintiff, it appeartd, was going to Windsor, and on arriving in Piccadilly, he saw a coach, and asked if s there wa: room on the outside. He was ti Id that there was plei ty ' of room, and he got up... Shortly afterwards he was ordered to descend ; he refused, and the defendant, with the assistance of another man, pulled him off, and treated him very violently. Colonel Townsend saw the affair, and confirmed the plaintiff's evidence. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty, and the Court sentenced him to two months' imprisonment. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW STREET. In consequence of the report of the case of the three boys named Davis, who were brought to this Office on Wednesday by a Ken. sington constable, a Gentleman waited on Sir R. Btattta to ascer tain if the facts were true. Sir RICHARD satisfied the Gentleman that they were s'rictly so; upon which he banded a guinea to the Magistrate for the use of the boys, and also a sovereign for the poor box. He however declined to give his name. In some little time afterwards the boys were brought into the office, and received front the Nlagistrate 7s. each, with which they were desired to proceed to Bristol, when, on applying to the Overseers, something would be done for them. Ford, promised to obtain for them a free con veyance. EXTRAORDINARY RIPRIIIIIINT.—An experiment was lately made at the New Tivoli, at Paris, to ascertain the degree of heat it is possible for a man to bear, in the presence of a company of about two hundred per. sons, amongst whom were many professors, :avail., and physiologists, who had been specially invited to attend by the physician Robertson, director of this establish ment. The man on whom this experiment was made, is a Spaniard, of Andalusia, named Martinez, aged 43 years. A cylindrical oven, constructed in the shape of a dome, had been heated for four hoop, by a very powerful fire. At ten minutes past eight the Spaniard, having on large pantaloons of red flannel, a thick cloak also of flannel, and a large felt, after the fashion of straw hats, went into the oven, where be remained, seated on a footstool, during 14 minutes, exposed to a' heat of from 45 to 50 degrees if a metallic thermome ter, the gradation of which did not go higher than fifty. He sung a Spanish song while a fowl was roasted by his side. At his coming out of the oven, the phy sicians found that his pulse beat one hundred and thirty four pulsations a minute, though it was but seventy-two at his going in. The oven being heated anew for a second experiment, the Spaniard re-entered. and seateJ himself in the same attitude, at three quarters past 'eight, ate the fowl, and drank a bottle or wine to the health of the spectators. At coming out his pulse was 176. and the thermometer indicated a heat of .110 de grees of Reaumur. Finally, for the third and last ex , periment, which • almbst 'immediately, followed the. second, he was stretched on a plank, surrounded with'l lighted candles, and thus put into the _oven, the mouth of which was close.l this time. He was there nearly five minutes, when all the spectators cried out— s, Enough, enough I" art anxiously hastened to take him out. A noxious atill suffocating vapour of tallow filled the inside of the oven, and all the candles were extinguished and melted. The Spaniard, whose pulse d i v as 200 at coming out of this gulph of heat, imme diately threw himself into a cold bath, and in two or three minutes after was on his feet safe and sound. He , was received with the unanimous applauses of all the' spectators. It is expected that the savans who witnessed this ext , aerdinary experiment with the greatest atten tion, will publish their observations on this test, to prove what degree of heat the human body is able to bear without danger to life. • .• SPORTING INTgLLIGENCE.
