He will visit M..Thaer, Count Von Itzenplitz, and some other greatlandholders in this neighbourhood, there to go to she sea-posts of -Pomerania, and afterwards to Poland, As far as we can learn, ; Mr. Jacob is said to caress himself favourably for the German landliolderi, g.. then) to hdpe that the English Government intends tt *Low the free importation of Corn." That a Government which has displayed so much liberality in its csmmercial policy. should suffer Grain, the staff of life, to be the only monopoly it sanctions, seems an anomaly ; but the fact is, that the Ministers, whatever power they may be supposed to not omnipotent ; and that every attempt to repeal the Corn Laws encounters the most determined opposition in Parliament ; and thus the corn•eaters • are at the mercy of the corn•gro wens. On principle, it is impels-, sible to defend this restrictive system, or to open GeV penis to German linens, and shot them against Genus wheat, nor do. we think the experiment at all so ha zardous as some appear to consider it. We do not pretend to say at what price grain may ] be produced, but that bread is cinch dearer than it' ought to be cannot be denied. H . gh rents, and the' juggles of corn and flour factors, no doubt have a great share in enhancing the price of wheat, but they would be counteracted by the opening of the ports; and while we have no fears that the landed interest would be injured, our manufactures and commerce would be extended, by exchanging their produce for our manufactures. The Corn Laws are not the work of Ministers, but c.f . the Country Gentlemen in Parliament; and if they are not re pealed, it will not be the fault of the Government, but of the agricultural interest, which predominates in the House of Commons. 1. L , are This forenoon we received Hamburgh Papers to the' 2d, with Dutch and Brussels Papers to the 6th instant. In Russia, the Government has issued an Ukase against a certain class of religious books published during the late Ministry, which chews that their successors are less tolerant, if it proves nothing else. The following are extracts : Immb ST. PETERSBURGH, JULY 20. The Emperor and the Prince of Orange returned yesterday to Zuskojeselo, from their ♦isit to the mili tary Colonies in the Government of Novogorod. The General Board for Ecclesiastical Affairs, has issued a Ukase, ordering the strictest measures for the immediate seizure of several religious writings which wale published duriag the late Ministry, and are ex clusively circulated ; they are chiefly Rrussian transla- ions of the works of Jung Stilling and Madame Guyon. Ten are particularly specified, which are to be imme diately seized wherever they are met with ; they are to be sealed up and deposited till farther orders in the Archives of the Board for the direction of the Schools. Strict search is to be made for these books in all Semi naries, Ecclesiastical Schools, and Convents ; and should any be found, inquiry is to be made when and by whom they were sent, by whom received arid distri buted, and how many copies. The publication of relieous woi ks not approved by the Censors of the Synod, and %%hid), under'the hypo critical mask of devout mysticism, seek to combat the principles of our holy religion, to prupagate false doc trines, and destroy morality and virtue, is strictly pro hibited ; and those who act against the principles of the Ukase, shall be severely punished. General Count Anaktschejew lately presented to the Emperor, the budget of the military colonies for 1823, already ap proved by the Board of Controul. The sum for their support amounted to above nine millions of rubles, of which the General has, however, saved a considerable part. CHRISTIANIA, JULY 21. For some time past, we have had a succession of dry weather, and the heat has been from 20 to 30 degrees (77 degrees to 99i degrees Fahrenheit). If we do net soon have rain, the harvest will certainly be indifferent. COPENHAGEN, JULY :so. Their Majesties and the Princesses arrived here on Wednesday, in good health, and went to Fredericks• berg, amidst the acclamations of the people. BRUSSELS, AUGUST 4.

We hear that his Majesty has just signed a decree, by which young men intended for the ecclesiastical pro fession, even though they have made their preliminary studies abroad, cannot obtain orders in our country un less they have first conformed to the regulations of the decree respecting the Philosophical College. The new decree is said also to exclude from ecclesiastical lune- tion's, in our country, priests who have been ordained abroad.

Molls, 9 p.m. August 5, 1 5251 After leaving Giaveiend, on Wednesday, proceeded to an anchorage below the Note, whine the pilot brought up, and on Thursday morning, at two, began to heave up, but on consulting my glass, I found there was a prospect of bad weather, and determined op waiting where I was, to put the ship to rights, and trim her properly. This I effected much to my sa tisfaction, before the evening, when the glass still in dicating an increase of wind, I made all snug for the night ; and having only the lightest anchor, that of 16cwt. out, I got the steam up, in order to assist her, should it be required. At eleven it blew very hard, the glass still falling, a great deal of sea running, but the ship riding very lightly on her anchor, and no steam required. The gale continued to increase.— About one, veered more cable. At three it was at its height, and we experienced some very hard squ ills, but rode very easy, and at half-past three the glass began to rise. At half-past eleven, the glass still continuing to rise, and the wea ther looking pretty fine. we began to weigh. We are now in the Downs, not intending to anchor, though she wind is still blowing very fresh from the westward. This ship is a noble roadster, and I am well satisfied with my ship's crew. Extracts of Letters from J. H. Luton, Lieutenant It. N. com manding No. 2 Battery. Dungeness. Saturday, August 6th. The Steam Vessel, on her voyage to India, passed Dungeness, at nine A. 14. It blows a strong gale, consequently *heavy sea on from the westward; notwithstanding these impediments, :be came up, and passed in pliant style, pitcbing heavily, but did not appear to take it over all, neither to have muck rolling motion. This heavy gale and sea will effectually try ber powers. Monday, August S. From information received from Dover of yesterday's date, it nethat when off Beschy-head, finding she did not make sue tanhead against wind and sea, to equal the value of the coals consumed, Captain Johnston dete rmined to lay-to, until the weather moderated, and, after drifting back as far as Dungeness, the vessel again proceeded to the westward yesterday morning.

Bo:rm.—An immense number of persons assembled yesterday in the fields adjoining Copenhagen-house, to witness a combat between Joe Woods and Harry Maddox. The parties, however, being informed the Olken were on the 100k -out, held a consultation, and, at length, withdrew. Thus morning they again repaired to he spot, and a most determined battle was the result. , In the fourth round Woods eyes were nearly closed, nor was his opponent much better off. After fighting sixteen rounds. with mutual advantage, Maddox fell, and so severely injured the left shoulder as to render medical assistance necessary ; and, of course, be resigned the battle. CHILD DROPPING.-A fine male eild, abut four months old, was found about nine o'clock last night, in one of the turnings lea ding: frompray's Inn-lane, to what was once Spa-fields, by a Gentleman and his wife, named EVMAIDS, resident near the spot. In the basket containing the child. a letter had been placed, giving the reason for its desertion, and strongly recommending it to the care of whoever might find it. Mr. EDWARDS resolved to take it home for the present, and says that in the event of nut being able to find the unnaturjparent, he will adopt it as his own. Mr. ELLISTON, it is said, is seriously indisposed. He has been attended by his friend Dr. Pxasson, by whose advice he is immediately to sea the benefit of the country air.

AWFUL SUDDEN DSATH morning, THOMAS HUMPHREYS, Esq. a Gentleman of fortune, left the H or se and Groom inn,GreatPortland•street,for the Tower, from whence he was to embolic in one of the Bologne steam-packets for the South of Fiance. On the ;coach arriving at the Tower, and the coachman opening the door, he found the Gentleman in a state of insensibility. He used every effort to arouse him without effect, and sent for a surgeon; but ere any medical aid co u ld be found, Mr. HUMPHREYS had breathed his last. There being a quantity of luggage in the coach, the driver refused to allow the body to be removed ; but .placing a ticket-porter in the coach, returned to the Horse and Groom, where he deposited the deceased Gentleman's body. The circumstance produced a very great sensation. COMETL—On the 25th ult. the Director of the Royal Observatory at Marseilles discovered, at a quarter be fore two o'clock in the morning, in the constellation of Taurus, a new comet, invisible to the naked eye. Its po- Isition that morning, at five minutes past two o'clock (true time) at Marseilles was : right ascension 621-3 deg., do. clension 26 3-4 deg. North. Its nucleus was vet y feeble and confused; and the surrounding nebulosity appeared sensibly elongated in the direction opposite to the sun. M. Arago announced a few days as'o to theFrenchAeademy of Sciences, that M. Pons re-discovered on the 15th ult. the short-period comet, precisely at the place where it ought' to be, according to the ephemeris of M. Eucke This re-appearance of the comet is considered a pledge for that expected to appear towards the end of the year 1828, or beginning of 1829. 4 rn The 72d itesiment bas kecersed ordeis to march from idinburgli to Portpatrick, where it will embark' for Ireland, to replace the 79th Toot, which is to proceed to Canada, to relieve the 37th, note ordered brittle. .

SHIPWRECKS. KINGSTON, (JAMAICA), JUNE 11. LOSS OF THE OCEAN, OF BRISTOLA...WE have learnt with considerable regret, that the ship Ocean, FURLONG, of Bristol, which went out of Old Harbour on Monday last, fully laden, went on Morris's Reef, where she was lying when the Rambler left Old Harbour. The schooner West Indian and sloop Adventure, with several boats from the shipping, were alongside of her, to endeavour to save the cargo. It is now ascertained that she has 14 feet water in her hold, and that only about 80 or 90 casks of her upper tier of cargo can be saved; and even that depends on the state of the weather, which has been very bois.erous for some time past. " Aux Cayes, J une Bth. " The fine brig Qareinont, Ganden, from London, .baud to Pon- hlorAnt, in ballast, struck on La Folk (Fool's Rock),'at site A. x. on the 26th April, and became a total wreck. A small part of the vessel's materials was saved by the Captain and crew, and brought hither on the 29th, as they were obliged to abandon the vessel, in consequence of the natives threatening them with .violente, in case they remained longer by the wreck. * The smack Seas of Commerce, Gibbs, sailed from Jactnel on the 15th ult. bound to London, ai a cargo of ma, in bags, and at 2 A. x. on the 17th ark. struck on La Voile, and the following day became a complete wreck.—Every assistance was rendered her from this place, and about 470 bags of coffee and the greater part of the vessel's materials were saved from the wreck, all of which were brought hither and sold for account of those concerned?'
