Exitturrtom OF DRAWING& Mr. Cooke of Soho-square has just opened his third Annual Exhibition. it consists of a eollectios of draw ings, both hy ancient tind modern artists, and las easels I. v e think, in number, the former exhi- Lite of the same kind at this place. Sir Thomas Law rence has enriched the collection with two of his hest di awings ; one of them the portrait of a young lady of rank, distinguished by all his usual elegance of manner, gracefulness of expression, and ilelicacy of execution; the other, an admirable study of two children's heads, full of the animated and ingenuous expression of child hood. We know of no artist, ancient or modern, who has succeeded like Sir Thrimas Lawrence in catching those transient elegancies of expression, if we may use the term, which so often engage our attention amidst the varied grace of femiiiiiie and infantile beauty. We observed :41•0 some very good drawings by Turner;' among hi. best ale The Mewstone at the entrance of Ply mouth Sound, and Smugglers off Folkestone. In this lat ter picture the transparency and buoyant motion of the water are represented with an astonishing degree of fidelity. There are some. admirably spirited and effec tive drawings by Mr. Monro, the young artist whose premature loss was some yew s ago so much deplored. A riew.fiont Windcliffe. Monmouthshire, by Penry Wil liams, is an admirably faithful representation of nature. We noticed .also some clever illustrations of the Scottish novels by Leslie, and a variety of meritorious drawings bx Jackson, Stothard, Girtin, Edridge, Dewint, &c. AMong the drawings by the old masters, we observed a very spirited study of a figure in the picture of the Raising sitheCrou, and a drawing of the Martyrdom of Saint illareus, by Reubens. There is also a study from the Tombs of the Alcatel, by the great Mithail Angelo; it i, evidently executed with the greatest faoility, though it presents the utmost vigour of style and contour. _THE SLAVE TRADE Dr. Audouard, a Paiis physician, read a memoir to the Royal Academy of Sciences, on the Sth inst. on the, yellow fever. The doctor had observed the symptoms an i exavined the cathes (Willis malady at Barcelona, in 1824 and at Passage last summer, and thinks himself justified, from the facts which he adduces, and the in ductions be makes, to conclude that the yellow fever arises from a special infection contained in certain ships which have been engaged in the slave-trade." If this theory be just, the bat harms traffic in human beings brings along v. ith it its own punishment, and retributive pestilence avenges on the Whites their cruelties to the African race. The Board of Longitude have conferred the Parlia mentary premium fill 0;) on Mr. Peter Barlow, of the Royal Military Academy, for his method of correcting the local attraction of vessels. The great quantities of iron employed at this time in the construction and equip ment of ships of war, produce so much deviation in the comoass (varying according to the direction of the ship's head), as to rendet it almost an useless instrument, pat ticularly in high Northern and Southern latitudes. It appears by Lieutenant Foster's report of experiments made in his Majesty's ship Conway, under the super intendence of Captain Basil Hall, to lat. 61 degrees S. and under that of Captain Clavering, in the recent voyage of the Griper, to lat. 80 deg. North, that the didurence in the beariog of an object with the ship's head at East and West, amounted to 28 deg. before the latter vessel left the Nore : this difference afterwards amounted to 50 deg. at the North Cape, and to 75 deg. at Spitzbergeb. ' Great, however, as this effect was, the method recommended by Mr. Barlow was completely successful. This is extremely simple: it consists in merely placing a small plate of iron abaft the compass, i in sue& a situation as to counteract the effects of the' ship any one place; after which, without removing it, it continues to do the same in all parts of the world, whatever change may take place in the dip or intensity of the magnetic needle. Three important advantages ...ill result from this discovery. If will add ready to the safety of vessels in our Channel, in calk and blow. ing weather ; it will tend to the general correction of our Charti of Variation ; and will dispel nine out of ten of the suppositions curl ent, liberally supplied by na !igators, to account for every remarkable disareement between reckoning and observation, and of which there can be no doubt the greeter number have arisen from this long-neglected error in the compass. L L Nl' ASSIZES. • TAUNTON, APRIL e. EI.WORI'IIY AND ANOTHER V. BIRb. Mr. ADAMS said that this action was lifought by Tho mas and William Elwerthy, weie respectable clothiers of this county, against Mr. Bir d, who, in the year 1811. mantled the daughter of the plaiaiff, Mr. Thomas Elwol thy, and die sister of Mr. William El worthy. Mr. and Mrs. Bird, horn the 'ear 1811 to 1821, lived togs her without any dissections to break in upon that happiness which was so detirable in a mar ried state; but in 18`91 diffetences basing arisen between them, Nils. Bird, with the concurrence of her friends, left hei husband, and went to reside in the Lou ,e of her fatter, upon an a: rangement that her husband was to allow her an income of SW. a-year. Mr. Iliad could not 'fulfil his engagement, and Mrs. Bird, from neces sity, was compelled to return to the defendant's house, and,shortiy after she had done that, the transactions took place which were thi foundation of this action.— Mr. Bird, ss itia a ci kicky hardly to be conceived, heated his wife in the most unmerciful manner. He imprisoned her in a dark chamber, beat her, kept her without food and tlothirig, and in short behaved with an unremitting harshness and severity towards her hardly ever heard of before. Fur these ciuelties he was indicted at the Bridge , , .water Quarter Sessions, in April, 1t22, and convicted, and while the Court were deliberating what punishment ;.t should infl;ct on him, an arrangement was made among the family, that the Conrt should pass a nominal fine on him, on the condition of bis entering into an agreement that he would separate from his wife, and settle on her an income of 60/. a-year. Besides this, there were to be other conditions. For some time Bird considered the arrangements entered into as binding, but after he had the advantage of the conference, and a light sentence had been passed upon him, in conse quence of tie cordiaiity that then appeared between the parties, he refused to enter into the agreement, or com ply with its terms. Some documentary evidence of the conviction of the defendant at the Bridgewrer Sessions, in April, ]822, of an assault on his wife, was then pot in, and read. Mr. Serjeant PELL having learned that the whole of tl.e documentary evidence intended to be produced had been read, took an objection, that the various other in dictments and actions against the defendant Bird and others, had not been proved to be discontinued, accord ing to the te:ms of the agreement entered into. Mr. ADAM, Mr. Buster:7s, and Mr. JEREMY replied to the objection.—The Court considered the objection good at law, and ordered the plaintiffs to be nor,suited. CORK, APRIL, t. At nine o'clock this morning, Mr. Serjeant LPFROY entered the Court, and after some trials of no interest, in which the parties were all acquitted, James Al , kenna, a soldier of the 12th Lancers, was given in charge to the Jury, for having, on the 25th of September last, fired a pistol loaded with ball, with in tent to kill and murder Lieutenant Richard Bury Palli ser, an Officer of the same regiment, in the Barrack yard, in this city. After the examination of Lieutenant Palliser and other witnesses to the transaction, by Mr:. QUIN and Mr. FRANKS on the part of the Clown, for the purpose of shewing that the shot fired by the pri s6ner was maliciously intended to kill and murder Lieu tenant Palliser, who had on that day given evidence unfavourable to his character on a regimental inquiry; and by Mr. Howano, agent for the prisoner, with the view to shew that the shot was fired for the purpose of taking his own life, in consequence of his mind being disturbed by some charges Inside against him, but of which he had been acquitted on that inquiry, which had been instituted at his own request Mr. Scrjeant LEFROY minutely and perspicuously re capitulated and observed upon the evidence; to the Jury, who, after retiring and consulting for 4 short time,, returned their verdict—Not Guilty.

Esq. on a warrant charging her with as saulting one Miss K ToLtall. Miss Tumuli began her statement, by informing his Worship that her mother keeps a little chandler's shop in George-street, St. Giles's ; and a few evenings back, the defendant came into the shop 1 1 and asked for half a kmartern of the best denble Gloucester cheese, which being cut for her, she refused to pay fot it, protesting that it was not weight, and insisted on its being weighed without the paper; which being refused, as they could not afford to give afarehises walk of paper, with/we/or:kings worth of cheese, the heroic Mrs. Stewart commenced a general assault on the stock of the shop, breaking the candles, mugs, mousetraps, and lollypop' in great style, and after demolishing everything within reach, made a grand finish, by rubbing a hot sauuettger all over the pretty face of the prosecutriz. Poor Nelly, who now looked as innocent as an wnshorn lamb, in defence acknowledged that she was a little the wet se for having taken a flash of lightning or two, and declared that she did not do any harm until they bad sent two red herrings and a handful amid plump in her face. • Mr. Mnantuzz ordered her to fi nd bail, to / keep the pease toward ' the Tunstall family, but advised an amicable arrangement, which by the interference of the husband was agreed to. HATTON-GA ADEN. I. Neville was committed in default of bail for assaulting in the most ruffianly and indecent manner a respectable young woman, while passing the road near Battle-bridge on Tuesday evening. Mn.s Crawley, of Scuth Audley-street, was fined ltd. 11s. 6d. and 14s. costs, for having a quantity of French silk in her possession ; as was Mr. Atlrenzy, of Cecil-street, 51. Os. 6d. being triple the value of a piece of Bandanna, found in his possession. &veral drivers of s h ort stages A NS 10 NekI,OUS.E. fur obstructing and errand carts appeared to sum monsesthe streets. The cases being all proved, the parties made their excuses; the errand carte bad • been delivering parcelsL.the stage coaches had been waiting for passengers they were to take up at the places they stopped at. ' The Loan Mtvoa said, he had &dared his intention to line every stage and cart that obstructed the passage of the streets from Aldgate to Temple-bar • be had hoed a dozen already, bit he found it produced n o effect. he hoped what be new said would go to the Public, and not be disregarded, as the practice of obstructing the greets must said should be put aunts to; it was rhinini- to the trades men of the City, and annoying to the passengers. He al ' is wished to give notice to those who weist with trucks and dogs, that they would rot be allowed to obstruct the passage by stopping. As giv ing notice was his present object, he would convict in the lowest She allowed by the Act, which was 10s. but if that mine did not produce its effect, he would inflict the full penalty of 5/. i The several parties then paid the fine of 10s. and left the Justice Room, promising the warning shoold not he in vain. • M A Y-I.A. BONN B. Slitereett, charged with veering some of the Birmingham notes stolen frown the Balloon coach, was again brought up, when in ad dition to the former charges of uttering three of them, on which he already stands committed, the following were adduced :—On the 19th uk. he purchased, at the shop of Mr. Pemberton, linen-draper, in St. John's -street, a piece of Irish linen, which he paid for with a 5/. note ' and received the change, and which was afterwards proved to be one of the stolen notes. In this case he gave his ad dress Stephen Hardy, 25, Gray's Inn-lane. The other case was preferred by Mr. Tyers, a draper, in the Minories, who stated that on the 22d ult. the prisoner went to his shop, and, representing himself as a pedlar, looked out goods to the amount of 3/.134.6d. and tendered another note of this description. Mr. Tyen, not liking country mites, went out to consult a neighbour, and, during his ab sence, the prisoner said he feared be should be too late for the stage, and departed, adding, he would call another time for the change, but never returned. In this case the address he gave was, J. Wil liams, 23, Nelson -street, Stepney. By the advice of his nlicitor, he declined making any defence ; and was fully committed on both charges, in addition to the three former ones. WORSHIP-STREET. NOVIL AND EXTRAORPINA RY Mona or Famin.—Saturday, John Mimes, alias Hail, a cheeacmonger, residing for the last two years in Wheeler-street, Spitalfields, was placed at the bar before Mr. Twrroan, under a charge of as singular a kind in its intention, anal of as fraudulent a on e i n it s o per at ion, as ever before occupie d the attention of a Police Magistrate. The facts, as they appeared, were these:—On Friday last, the prisoner took a cellar from ?.Jr. John Murrell, No. 10, North -street, Finsbury, which he engaged for two months, at the rate of 2s. per week, under a pretence that he required it as a store for butter, bacon, and cheese. He then went to Mr. Wm. Tipping, No. 14, High-street, Borough, an ex tensive wholesale cheesemonger, from whom he purchased two sides of bacon. two firkins of butter,and a large Cheshire cheese, amount ing to £9. 12% 4id. and ordered them to be sent with a bill and receipt to his newly-taken stores. Mr. Tipping's porter delivered them, and after the prisoner received the property, he banded the porter five good sovereigns, with some change, and a quantity of parcels neatly tied up, resembling five shilling cartridges of penny pieces, and corresponding so exactly in appearance and weight, as induced the porter, without farther examination, to consider that all was right. However, on the way home, the precious parcels re ceived some injury by the carriage; and upon their delivery they were found to be nothing but narrow bars of old lead, so doubled, as when covered with paper to bear the appearance of penny pieces.—Reruanded. .1111.

Saturday, Mr. Giles trotted his mare on Sunbury Common, in harness, twenty-eight miles in the short space of one hour and fifty-seven minutes and fifty seconds. Mr. Giles aceoniplished this unparalleled achievement with the utmost rase. Two hours was the time allowed. He had two minutes and ten seconds to spare. The President of the 1). C. was one of the umpires; the other, a Gentleman well known at Billingsgate. This match was ,ClOO to £5O against the performance, yet, strange to say, the odds were five and six to four on the mare. There is nothing like it on record. A Gallopping Match also took place for - X.lO a•side. Twenty miles within the hour. This task was performed by two Gentle men, ten miles each. F.
