(3d. The fliowing is an extract : " DomnsTre ECONOMY. " A knowledge of natural things is useful only in pro portion as it can be made subservient to tire conveni ence', the comforts, and enjoyments of life. We shall offer, then, no apology for now presenting (rim readers with the following useful receipts, as this is the season in which nature produces the fruits that are requisite. "To>IAKIi ENGLISH CliAMPAGNE.—Taikegreen goose berries, fully grown, but not. soft or sweet. To every pound'of berries, topped and tailed, and then bruised, put a quart of cold spring water. Let it stand three days, stirring it twice a day, and then strain it through a sieve to Separate the skint. To every gallon of this liquor port three pounds of sugar, and to every five gal lons a quart of brandy. Pill the cask, and bung it' close, %kith a piece of isinglass hung therein. In six months, if the sweetness be gone, bottle it off; employ corks of the best quality, and let them be secured with binding suite.—The berries may be bruised with a wooden mallet, or with a common smoothing-iron (Made use of in-ironing clothes), but not so as to break the seeds. " Dr. lilac Culloch„ in his work on wines, disapproves of the use of brandy in,their manufacture; and recom mends adding, to the must, about six ounces of com mon crude tartar. We art not disposed to dispute the ptopriety'af what' be thus recommends; on the con tra; y, we think *it may be an improvement; but having seen wine made according to the above receipt, which could not be distinguished from French champagne, we have therefore given it without alteration. " PRESERVATION OF' FIWITS AND JUICES. " The common method of preserving fruits is by means df sugar,. but- they retain their natural flavour much . better when this is done without the use of such ad agent; A's the process, though very simple, may be unknown to many of our readers,. we state the method of manipulation in few words. It consists in enclosing the fruit to be preserved, in common quart bottles, or in jars, corking them with great care, as the success depends principally on the complete exclusion of the air ; and in submitting the bottles to the. beat of boiling water, in a water-bath, for a longer or shorter time, according to the nature of the article. " Fruit intended to be preserved, either whole or in (planers, ought not to be completely ripe, being then apt to dissolve in the water-bath. Nor should it be gathered either too soon or too-late. The first and the gathered elther too soøn or toolate. The first and the last of the crop have neither the fit.e flavour, nor the perfume.of those which are gathered in the height of the season ; that. is, when the greater part of the crop of each species is ripe at the same period. " The water-bath best adapted to this purpose con sists of a boiler furnished with a cock close to the bot tom, to let off the water ; but :any common washing copper will serve for domestic processes. When it can be nude convenient, the bottles should each be put in a bag open at both ends, with runners to draw them to gether at thesboulder, and over the edge or the bot tom ; or they May be put in common stockings with out injury to the latter. This prevents the necessity of employing hay or straw, in the bailer, to keep the bottles from touching. But time is yet another me thod, namely, to tie a string round the neck of each bottle, and hang them upon sticks. The bottles should not only be well corked, but have a good luting slueared over the cork and neck, for farther security, and this should be done before they are put into the bath. The bottles being placed or hung upright in the boiler, cold water is to be pooled into it up to their necks, and then the fire-is to be lighted. tan - tuisera eon Tali Viissubs.— An excellent listing fit foe this.purpose is made of bests quicklime, slacked in the air by adding water till it be reduced to a towdee which shinild be kept in corked bottles). This powder, mired. with skim-milk dieese, or with curd of skim milk, front which the whey has been separated, and worked to the - thickness of paste, product a luting which hardens rapidly, and stands the heat of boiling water. " To attennavn GoosaannßlE4.—Take any quantity, fall grown, but still hard.; fur ripe gooseberries do not suit so well. Top and tail . them," and put them into bottlet—beating the bottles gently on a stuffed stool, to lessen the vacant insterstices. Cork and lute them; put them in the copper, separate one from the other, and pour in cold water, as directed above. Light the fire, and, before the water boils,• examine the bottles ['tom time to time, and when the fruit changes colour, and , becomes white, draw out the fire, and let off the water. If it be a common copper, without a cock, lift the bottles out of the . water with as little delay as may be. " ANOTHER WAY TO PRESERVE GOOSEBERRIES.— Proceed as above, Out don't cork the bottles; and when the fruit begins to change its colour withdraw them from the water-bath, and having boiling water ready for the purpose, pour it into each.bottle, so as to over top the gooseberries, and fill the bottle half way up the neck; then cover them with a blanket, and when cold, pour into each a small quantity, say half a teaspoonful, of olive oil. After which, cork and lute the bottles.— The oil serves most effectually as a hermetic seal to pre vent air from teaching the fruit, should the corking prove defective." Tire Matrimonial ceremony, like many others, hes undergone some variation in the progress of time. Up wards of three centuries ago, the husband, on taking hilt wife, as now, by the right hand, thus addrefited her: " I N. undersygue the W. for my wedded wyfv, for beter for eel se, for richer for poser, yn sekness and in heldte, tyl deth us departe (not" do part," as we have erroneously rendered it, the ancient meaning of departe, even in Wickliffe's tinie, being. separate), as holy Churche bath ordeyned, and thereto I plygth . die my trowthe." So it appears in the first edition of.the Missals for the use of the fit wows and celebrated Church 0f Hereford, 1502, fol. In what is called the. Salisbury Missal, the Lady pronounced a mote general obedience. " to be bonere• and buxom in bedde and at the borde." Ldit. Wayland, 1554, 4to.—Dihrlim's Bibtogr.

INSOLVENT DIIBTOII' raURT,'AUGUST 14. . ~- ~ A. Parsons, an Irishman, 'who kept a chandler's shop in St. Giles's, came up to hit - heard on his Petition t.) be dischaiged, and was opposed by a host or bakers, from whom he. had purchased cheap bread. The insolvent stated, that there were scarcely ten bakers in tli Lon- don with wlioM he had not dealt for bread when-they had it bad, as the. poor Irish, who were his custnalaip, were glad to get bread of any kind. It appeareeillrat he had been sued in the King's Bench, by a person who claimed a debt of IV. and finally obtained judgment for forty shillings, and to whom the insolvent swore-he owed nothing. During the progress of the suit he was obliged to sell his furniture to his son, who had inhe• rited some property from his grandfather, for the pur pose of defending the action ; and after it was decided he gave up the business to.his son: It appeared by the evidence of one of the opposing creditors that the 'limb. vent had received credit from.him•for part of his debt, after the sale to his son, by representing that the house and furniture were his own. The COURT said they could not remand the insolvent for the sale of his goods to his son, to defend himself from a demand which was unjust to the extent it had been made; but it was clear he had obtained credit in one instance by a miss epresentation ; for which the judg ment of the Court was, that he should be remanded for six months from the date of his Petition. Antes Wetherill, convicted at the late Lincoln Assizes ' for the murder of Mr. W. Berridge, at Brigg, and sen tenced to be executed on Friday week, has received a respite for a fortnight. The French law of the Budget for 1825 was pub lished •on Saturday, in the Bulletin des Lois. The ex penses of the consolidated debt and sinking-funf are estimated at 278,085,785 francs ; the general expenses of the public service at 661,847,395 francs ; and the receipts at 899,110,385 fr. (about 36 millions sterling.) Wednesday the 4th inst. a dreadful accident befel Mr. Francis Dixon, farmer, of Eastwell, Leicestershire; he was at the annual wake of Ab-Kettleby, near Melton Mowbray, where there were horse and pony races, for a silver cop, given by the Rector, and other prizes.— Mr. Dixon was prevailed upon to ride one of the horses for the Kettleby stakes, and when at full speed, his nag came in contact with a drunken man (who spite of all remonstrances ran across the Course), and both the animal and his rider came down with a tremendous crash, by which Mr. Dixon was so terribly bruised as to occasion his death at two o'clock the following morning. An Inquest was held on the body by TudSrae CLARKE, Gent. Coroner, and a verdict returned . of Accidental Death. It appeared, from the evidence of a surgeon, who opened the skull of the deceased, that an effusion of blood was upon the brain, Ad the base of the skull was much fractured. There are, in the district immediately surrounding Manchester, not fewer than 30,000 power looms; the product of which, at a moderate computation, gives employment and subsistence to 200,000 individuals, and this is a branch of our manufactures which, ten years ago, was almost unknown. CAUTION TO OUR PAIR COUNTRYWOMRN.—We are anxious to urge our fair countrywomen to avoid elcur sions on the water, at the close of very warm days. At that time a dense stratum of cold damp air is apt to cover the water, which, although it does not rise high' above its surface, yet is sufficiently so to envelope those in a boat : and, as the exhaling pores of the skin ire then in full action, the check which is thus given to the in -1 sensible perspiration may be followed by the !post dan gerous results - . On the first day of Salisbury Races two nototious persons assuming the character of dealers; while bar tering with Mr. Bell, of Wiriterslow, for pigs, they brought about a challenge which would hew the most money. The strangers put down some on the table, and , tkfr. Bell followed with four one•pound notes, when one of the strangers taking them to see if he had done what he said, slipped four bad notes in the place of the good ones, and before this swindling transaction was disco vered, the party decamped with their booty.—A poor man oa the Race-down was eased of his last pound note at the game of prick in the garter. SUDDsI4 DiatYll. The driver of the Portsmouth coach from Dorchester to Southampton, named gnoiv, shortly after leaving the former place, on Friday last, complained of being unwell, and was obliged, on ar riving at Milborne, about eight matt from Dorchester, to quit the coach. Medical assistance was procured, but in the space of five or six hours he was a corpse. He has left a wife and six children. It is a singular circumstance, that no less than three coachmen have, withia the short period of 12 months, been suddenly deprived of life at Milborne. Saturday night, about ten o'clock, considerable alarm was excited throughout the neighbourhood; in conse quence of a general cry that the Caledonian Chapel, in Hatton-garden, was on fire. Some Gentlemen of the Committee had been transacting business in the Chapel' in the course of the evening, and on leaving it between nine and ten o'clock, Mr. Endes, a locksmith, who re sides behind the chapel, looked in on the premises, when he saw flames issuing from the vaults under the chapel. The rafters were on fire, and the devouring element had reached the chapel, where some of the seats were nearly consumed, and the steps leading to the pulpit. Alarm was instantly given to Mr. Brant, an extensive coachmaker, whose premises are adjoining, and imme diately his men, with the assistance of the watchmen, conveyed buckets of water to the spot from a large cis tern on Mr. Brant's premises. In a few minutes the fire engines arrived, but the exertions of the firemen were almost useless by nearly the same scarcity of water as occurred in Greville-street, insomuch that the engines could not work. The firemen, however, assisted in pulling up the flooring of the chapel, to prevent the ex tension of the fire, which, after raging for nearly half an hour, was got completely under by the supply of water front Mr. Brant's premises. Bpt for this lucky circumstance, the chapel, as also Mr. Branes premises,. must have been consumed. The cause of the fire is al together involved in mystery. In the vaults tinder the, chapel there is a stove, intended for the circulation of heat through the chapel by means of a flue, but which has not been used for years. On part of this flue, be tween it and the rafters, were placed a number of planks, which were used as temporary tables on Sacra ment-days. Among those planks the dre commenced. , During the time of Divine Service, or when the Com mittee are sitting, the back entrance to the chapel generally left open, through which therris 4 ready ac cess to the vaults ; and irks Opposed Mope person don veyed on one of those occasions. the materials for com bustion, but from what motive is as yet unknown.

Ace,. who stated, tkat on Friday the prisoner, towards the Oen leg, was looking over a parcel of letters, whick had arrived from 1 Flammerunith, part of which were to be sent on to the - Inland' Office. Witness obsetved him to stop at one which was directed to Truro, in Cornwall, and which appeared to contain something hard. The prisoner put it aside in a manner as if to avoid ob,er vation, and passed on with the other letters. When he had set ted the wbok, he carried them himself to the Inland °Lice, which teas contrary to the usual practice, and which was not his duty. (hi his return tbe.witness asked him whether he had given in that particu lar letter? The prisoner replied in the affirmative, but appeared coonfused; and got the key to go to the water-closer. The witness communicated his suspicions, all] on the return of the prisnr.er he was apprehended and searched, but no money was tourd upon him. On examining the water-closet, the fragments of a letter, believed to be that' directed to Cornwall, were found. It was stated that a witness would Male forward to identify them. It was believed that the letter contained a sovereign. The prisoner protested th:tt be knew nothing of the letter. Another person went to the water•closet after him, the search was made upon hint four times, mI no money found. It was impossible that be could have got rid of the money if he had taken it. The Solicitor for the Post-office said, that if the prisoner were remanded, lie should be enabled to bring forward all his witnesses. The Loan Blavoit remanded the prisoner, arid aviscd him to get all his friends about him, with ptofessional assistance, the t eat time he was brought up. 110 W-STREET. A TOUCH or " rus Faiscv."—One Mr. Light was brought nut of darkness from St. Martin's watch-house, on Saturday mousing, to answer fur haviug taken the liberty of knocking down a hackney coachhian in front of the Haymarket Theatre on Friday night. Mr. Light is a country Gentleman, of light weight, much muscle,, and real respectability ; his age some thirty, or thereabout ; mar ried, and now on his first visit to town with his Lady, and, though. married, able to come and go wherever and whenever he pleases— just as though he was still a bachelor—which is saying a great deal. "And please your Worship," began the complaining coachntan—H a stout, twelve-scone, woolly-beaded, large-lipped, Young- Iluffianish sort of subject—" And please your Worship, I was engaged to take a party home from the Haymarket the-hater last night, and while I was waiting for 'em, this ere Gentleman (Mr. Light) and two more squeezes themselves into my coach, and becoz I told 'eat, says I, I'm hired, says I, this ere Gentleman (Mr. Light) jumps out o' the coach and gives me a comfortable knock = down blow— just in no time to speak of ; and, as I was'nt a going to he knocked about a thaens for nothing,l give him in charge to the watch-house.", " May I be allowed to ask this fellow a few questions ? " said Mr. Light. " Yes," replied Mr. I .lllxsnuu, " but do net call him a,/'e/low." " Bei your Worship's pardon," said Mr. Light, with a light bow ; and then folding up his arms, so as to Concentrate his cross-examina terey powers, he addressed the coachman with a " Pray, my good man, where wese you when we first came up to your coach?' . . Why, not far off," replied the , coachman, " else I don't know where my coach would have been by . this time. Sonic of you talked of driving it to a rum sort of place for a coach to go to, I think !" at And. yon say 1 knocked you down r ailed Mr. Light. "I day" replied the coachman. " You may stand by," said Mr. Light ; " I will discuss you more at large presently." The Coachman's statement was corroborated by Stephen Winter, one of the link-men of the Theatre; who added, that Mr. Light put himself in a fighting attitude, and exclaimed, " I am a Bris tolian--a milling sum, and can lick half a dozen jarvcys in no time !" Mr. Light—l bog your pardon, I saidjarney-men. Witness would not undertake to swear whether the word used wasjarsays or jarveymen, but he was quite sure that the words were no sooner spoke than Mr. Light knocked the coachman down. Another coachman. who had offered to carry Mr. Light and Ids friends anywhere, deposed to the same effect. Mr. Light, in his defence, admitted having got into the coach, bat be denied the abusive language and the knocking down. lie had merally pushed the coachman away, when he rudely Attempted to drag him from the steps of the coach by his collar. Ile then called the other two Gentkmen who were with him at the time, and they both denied that the coachman was knocked down, though one of them admitted that he 6trid not speak to the fact very positively, because he was knocked down himself, and could not exactly see what was going wr ; It* ~,d th• oth•re alikairetpcl that noshing of the kind would have happened if the coachman bad been with his coach, as be ought to have been, when they first got into it. The Magistrate said the coachman was certainly to blame for leaving his coach for a moment, and he might be puni.hed for it, brit not by being knocked down and as the assault had been clearly proved, Mr. Light must find bail to answer the coachman's com plaint at the Quarter Sessions. The parties retired ; but in a few minutes they came In again— the coachman saying he did not wish to press thh matter further, as the Gentleman seemed sorry for what he bad done. The Magistrate accordingly acceded to a dismissal of the case ; but unfortunately for Mr. Light, he was imprudent enough to ex claim, " Thank you, Sir; and I'll bet a guinea he would take such another blow for half-a-guinea more I" and he no sooner said so, than his Worship directed the coachman to return whatever money he had received, and ordered Mr. Light into the. custody of the gaoler ; at the same time observing, that the remark was a most indecorous one, and he was determined the matter should not be made' up. Mr. Light tendered all sorts of apologies, but his Wor ship refused to listen to them, and the gaoler took the unfortunate Gentleman away. He was, wever, eventually liberated, upon a very contrite re-application to the Magistrate for that purpose. WO RSH I P-STRE ET. A Nest or Satassmas.—For a considerable time pasta traffic, as injurious as it is fraudulent in its results, has been (in various puts of this metropolis) carried on with considerable success, namely, that of prepaying ham: coin for circulation. Informations having been for several days past lodged with the officers of this division, that a nest of such a deemiption was to be found at a Mrs. Cow dell's, No. 6, Loot-alley, Noorbelds; anti that they generally car ried no their nefarious practices tivlight, the state of the weather eti last Friday evening induced the officers to think it a faVoorable time to execute their warrant. Accordingly, Oulan, chief officer, with Vann, Waters, and Hanley, repaired to the room, with all the suddenness of a " sunburst where they found James lid!, the proprietor, Mary hill, likanariuckley (a visitor, or in other words, a culiner,or a purchaser, if you like, on whose person some base coin was found) with Julio Hyatt, and Sarah Handbanks. They also found in the rues part of a sword blade, from the appearance of which it would justify a belief that it had been used as a " healer," for the purpose of giving the base coin a sound, and on which was dearly discernible some remains of quicksilver, as well as a quantity of cream of tartar, which Mary Hill threw out of a cup into a pail of water, for *be purpose of concealment. In the rcom and on their peruses were also found a quan.ity of hall-cruwns, and sixpences. Mr. fwvroao, in order to give the Public, the officers, and the Solicitor for the Mint, an opportunity of making further inquiry, remanded them for a week. TOWN-HALL Mr. Nathan, a clothes salesman, in the Borough, came into the office, and related to Mr. Alderman J. J. SNIITII, that his wife, who was eight months gone with child, had that moment been bitten by a dogbelonging to Mrs. Mary Peele, in the Borough Market, whom he requested might be summoned beture him. The reqnest was granted immediately, and in a short - time Mrs. Pee;t: appeared, and the alike was crowded with the friends of both p:atks. Mr. Nathan then stated that sur a eon Rowley, of the Iligh-street, was in attendance on his wife, and bad applied lunar caustic to the wound; but considered it necessary the part irjured situuld be cut out, and delivered to the Magistrate a certificate tv that effect, but saying that his wife was opposed to it. Mr. Alderman SALMI ) who took the liveliest interest in the case, Dee ht forward every observation tending to allay the dreadful impressions upon Mr. Nathan's mind, and called upe , n Mrs. Peele to account for the unpardonable negligence she had been guilty of, in saikring a ferocious dog to be at large, in the teeth of the Mk. gistretru ° dram and of every humane feeling. Mts. Plzele denied that the dog was felociotii, and said Mrs. Nathan had trod upon the dog's foot with her patters before it had turned upon her. The dog was then put Into the custody of Kinsey, with strict orders for his guidance, and Mr. Nathan departed, declaring he would indite the owner at the Sessions. If A lt LBOI.I OUG 11-STREET.
