lilotitia Histories', containing Tables, Calendars, ni ar Miscellaneosts.lnfornuttion,for the Me of Hist°, inns, Antiquaries, and the Legal Profession. By Nicholas . Nartis Nicolas, Esq. Bvo. his is one of those exceedingly useful, although uh-; readable books, which are indispensable to every library. And although more particularly designed for the use Of the antiquarian and historical student, •it will be found of great service by the general reader, and *ill frequently save him much perplexity and doubt. Tills is *artidularli, the case with regard to - the table of years *of each 'Monarch's reign, sheaving exactly the Year 0f ... 0ur L otto corresponding with . each ' year of every King's reign, from the Norman Conquest - to the present time. 'ln this table are likewise given the titles and style Of each Sovereign, from the legends on their Great Seals, from their Charters, and - from other 'faith ful authorities. In order to give art idea of the value Of this part of the work, We will suppose, Tor instance, that the reader wants to ascertain the *Corrispoinding date to the:2Bth of Henry VI. which he finds -Corn -Meittedon 31st August, 1449, and terminated on the 30th 'August,-1450. This not only saves much trouble, but each year being noted down, it Maps out to the eye, as it were, and therefore iinpresies more forcibly on the memory, the comparative-length of the various reigns. 'Among the other tables, the Romish Calendar dud table of 84103 9 days (the latter of Whiebserves as an index to the former) are likewise not without either their unity or curiousness. The More miseellaneetts part of the volume contains an account of the Works published by order of the Commissioners for the Preservation of the 2 Public 'Records—which is certainly oot the least interesting portion of it--;-an . explatiatien Of the ancient terms of different-quantities of land ; .a'nexplanation of the most frequent genialogiCal abbreviations; registries of wiils and peculiars ; and an alphabetical list of sur -Alan* and 'names of places, as they occur in ancient :records: this is a double-list—in the first part, the an tientnatne is .given befdre'the modern one, in the other, the mo4ern before the ancient name. Wetave thus endeavoured lb convey to - our Readers some notice of the information to be found in this Work, well knowing how frequently it happens, with regard to publications of this description, that for want of their contents being mere minutely specifiei, they . remain unknown, not only to the public - in general, but to that t'vevy'class for whowuse they-are mote immediately de skirled. 'As a circumstance of minor ithportance, we liiay'renfatk that the size of the bo:,k is a recommenda- . lion - in its•fivour, it being neither inconveniently large,d en the one hand, nor, on the other, in so minute aform and type, as - to be icarcely legible, except to' very ) ; :taitleyei, either. of Which Would greatly diminish ita 'allies as a -book of reference. • 7'4 e•Histoiy of the To:on and Port of Haslings.

ALlfll4.l) Cittineittl.L, of Batavia, United- States, has invented a new screw; which is thus spoken of in the" American Papers :—" The screw is concave, and meshes with admirable regulatity•with the cogs. placed in a -circular wheel, which is Moved-with ease and ra pidity with the application 'of small - power. To• thew its immense strength, it is only necessary-to Mention that the thread of the screw in its evolution, presses at all times upon four of the cogs of a wheel - containing eleven cogs, and may-be so construeted, if necessary, toteo encircle five-elevenths of a circle." The same Mr. errthibtrat.- is said to. have invented a new and inge hitius 'hydraulic model: 44 its power for raising -bids fair to excel - any -preceding principle, where the height re- United should not exceed the , half of the diameter of the'wheel used In lifting and 'discharging the water." THE FINE ARTS. -Colossal Equestrian Statue of Me Kin. Mr. Westmaeott, the sculptor, .has lately been em , ployed in modelling an equestrian group, representing his Majesty on a clinger, which is to -be nearly thirty feet in height. We are informed that a 'rude sketch of its dimensions, if the term be admissible, was put to gether some time since by the carpenters, in the form of the projected group, and set up on its intended site, at the end of the Long Walk, at - Windsor—and that the effect proposed was well coneeived.by this scheme, and entirely approved. ft is to be cast in bronze, and if executed compatibly with the vastness and grandeur Of the design, Cannot fail to perpetuate the splendid reign oftliat Sovereign, whois darts munificently disposed to en courage the arts of his empire.—Sonserset House Gazette.

Mr.JohnVarley, we have lately seen, is busily engaged in his study, on his new process of landscape •in water coloors, heightened with white, and varnished with copal.

It Was noticed in our Paper of halt week, that oh Friday, the 17th inst. a female infant, supposed to have ' been strangled, was foiled in'the church-lard of Ityme, Intrinsica,_in this county. tidy on the morning of the. 17th,.. the Coroner commenced his Inquest ) and as do suspicion whatever fell on any individual of that small pariih, 'conjecture was Much* a loss for the perpetra tors of the - supposed c rime . Mr. Turner, of Sherborne, 'andthorland of • Yeovil,turgeons, opened the bod y, the inspection of Which fully satisfied them that t3te infant must have been born alive. The lungs appeared perfectly healthy and boated in water. The neck had been violently compressed by the strings or a dimity petticdat, in part of which the body, was wrapped When found, add was the probable cause of theinfant's death. On teMbving the*scalp, a large quantity of extrava sated blood appeared. In the course of the investiga tion, sevetal respectable persons deposed as to the ap parent pregnancy of "a young woman, limed Brake, and of the sudden alteration in her appearance. She. was residing with her Mother and her step-father, at a cottage, in Hamlet, in the parish of Yetminster, wherein a young man of the name of Sansom resided as a lodger. It wai recollected that this Man paused through Ryme, not unfrequently, in his way to Load-bridge, with the waggon of his employer, Mr. Andrews, of Hamlet, to fetch calm and coals: and that he did pass that way the night on which the body was supposed to have been deposited, was proved by a woman, a resident at Ryme, who hearing a waggon stop at a late hour, near her house, imagined that some persons were about to rob her pear -tree, which stands near the road. She • called her son, and on going into the garden they ascer tained that it was Sansom, with his master's waggon; and overheard a conversation between him and a boy respecting a box, which he was about to carry with him. The Coroner issued his warrant, and the mother; daughter, and Sansom, were' apprehended. The exa mination of the young woman's person, by the medical Gentlemen, added strength to the existing suspicion; but the deposition sof an intelligent lad, who went with Sansorn and the-waggon to Load-bridge, Troy/Otte bel very important, and amounted in substanee tothist.-: That the waggon, driven by hi m.(Sansom riding •in tit)4 departed. from the :premises of Il<lr.-Andrews , between ten and eleven :on 'Friday night, that 'it 'passed by; Kaswell•Farm, through Common-lane (a lane seldomi passed over by waggons), came to . back of Ityme , vil-; • lage, and stopped at a stile below•the pound, froml which a footpath leads to the church-yard, distant,' ' about 150 yards. That liqthe boy) stood at - the near, • 4de of the team; that • Sansom got out of the waggon on the off side, next the stile, taking 'something with. him, 'and saying he was,going to tarry a box-to Dew? • jamin Barret's ;'thrithe was absent' about a qualm of an! 7 hout, and then rearmed 'to the waggon, bringing no thing 11 back; and they -then pursued their - turn* • to load-britte. 0 -beiag thews% ilre• box in , w ids - the infant had been enclosed, heidentlfiercl it very - satisfacto-, • ,rily ; • it Was, he' said,.a Wl' that lie had seen do the pre raises at Hamlet, in which a .pigeon had been 'kept, though now a little:reduced in-size; as small 'part 'ap peared to 'have 'teen *recently 'cot off. The Jury, late 'on Monday night, retorned 'a verdict Wilful murder against the daughter, her mother, and Sansom," who were committed on the Coroner's ss arrant, to Dor chester The Prussian Government, as 'appears by the letters received yesterday from . Berlin, is about tomake great reductions in the amount 'of the national .expenditu►e. The whole of the militia has been disbanded, .and.thili tory officers of every class, and in actual service, have been reduced in . their pay to one-half of its previous amount. A Similar reduition has taken place in all tint civil departments Of the . State, including even thiKing's Ministers. The annual saving which will be ifiecte4 by this •sweeping measure of economy. is estimated tq amount to 8,000,000 otriz-dollars. 'A very judicious measure has been'adopted in France; in regard to the •intended new ;coinage. A Prize of 10,000 francs is offered for the best engraving of a head of his present MAYEfitY; so that the common cir culating coin of the ►`ountry will not only render the countenance of the KING 'familiar to his subjects, but will also serve as a memorial of the progress of thi arts in France. - TUE GREEK NIJECENAS.—John Varvaki, a rich Ipsai riot, long established in Russia, is regarded by the Greeks as one of their most liberal friends, not only on account of the large sums he has given to several-pub lic establishments, but also-on account of. the money he has supplied to contend for their 'independence. He ma; distinguished during the war between the Rosslans.a n d Turks in 1770, and, selling his patrimony at that period, fitted ont a privateer, and did a great .deal .of mischie to the Muiselmans. At the peace he retired very poor to St. • Petersburgh, where he found protectors and patrons. He was appointed Intendant . 6f • Public Jae venue az A atracan. In this employment he grew rich without injuring the country-which bad received - him. He had hardly heard that the Greeks desired to improve themselves than he contributed large sums Of money to establish schools. He improved the harbour of IPsara at an expense of 300,000 piastres. When .Greece pro claimed her independence, he forgot his age and infir mities, and 'wreathed' only of the combats in which he desired to engage. Possessing a revenue Of more than 1,000,000 piastres, he has consecrated it so the liberatioq of his countrymen. He is on the point of coming amongst them to end his last days with them.-Setylnean. A few days ago, a fine boy, aged 14, named . Orr, near Longford, in Ireland, rrecidtoteliy banged himsilf, as it appeared by the verdict of a Coroner's' Jury. The boy, with some others, had been playing and'imitating thelolemn setae of the execution of two men-they bad lately•witoessed Itt•Longfrord, which caused the me lancholy sgsult.—The Burial. Servicewas read over the corpse by a Protestant Clergyman, is the death was proved to have been aerlikinal. During the night the corpse of the boy was raised, ht a party who assembled for the purpose, arid left on the high road, with a threatening notice sated to the coign " not to bring back ape corpse to the Chore/L.l%rd." The afinetcd parents temoved that ' r emains to another place, from which it was again disinterred. Seam have been beard to say, that " they would as soon see a mad 4eilmaried in the place as the body of the suiridat hesetic." 'Others -aft that " all the corpses in thi Churchyard.turned sw their/mos - disk Pus% as seen as the poor boy's body wasintaredi" A vert•intetesting eibibitieti of this species of VIM*. ment (which in theoldea time was so favourite a sport in Eogland), took place as Thursday last, to the neigh bourhood of Amesbury, and was witnesred by a nume rous field of sporting Gentlemen, and others attracted by cariosioy. The hawks, sis in . number were remarkibly largt2ottlare young birds; and their owner, Colonel Thornhill, directed the sport of the day, in the presence of Sir Hussey Vivian, Sir Francis Burdett, Mr. Mills, and other Gentlemen. The scene of action was an ex trace field of turnips, in which it was known there was plenty of gait*. Th*Ccdonerefalconer and assistant brought the hawks to the fitiddrooded, perching upon a frame ; the sports men and spectators were ranged outside the • field; a 'ne bird was -then taken from the perch, unhooded, and 'permitted to 'fly. The hiwk immediately towered, and hovered aver the turnip field with his eye intently bent -upon the'plants, in search of prey ; he beat over the *round vith evolutions similar to those of a pointer upon the ground. After a few minutes had elapsed, Coloherrhornhill directed some boys to enter the field - for the purpose of 'disturbing the birds, and a partridge at length arose, Which was instantaneously seen by the hawk, though at * great distance. The hawk darting after it, struck it 40 theearth, but the partridge recover ilig,tew, as it were for protection,-amongst the spec tators; here it was pursued by the relentless hawk and 'killed. The other hawks were severally let loose, and all but one of them killed a partridge each. Some' were killed odt of the sight of the spectators, and it is 'highly worthy of remark, that the hawks had been so well grained, that they invariably returned to the fal-. toner at his call, and when out of his sight and hearing, he attracted them by throwing into the air a lure, some ghing-resembling a stuffed partridge. The above eshi!,ition afforded a most gratifying spe cimen of this ancient and very curious sport. imem=ae POLICE; INTELLIGENCE. DI A NSI.O 1 4 11-110uSE.

Mr. ADOLPHUS (who appeared yesterday when th e case was adjourned) took an objection to rise schedule on the ground of sutplosage. The Learned Gentleas se : Stated, that he appeared en behalf el Ms. Warburton, who, in the sittingsof last Tertn,Cbtained a verdict fo r 5001. against the insolvent, who was defendant in an actionfor libel, the amount of which he had inserted i a his schedule among the list of ctedi tors an d c l a i mants. He submitted to the Court that that itent ought to b e expunged, inasmuch as /he verdict had not merged into a debt, as final judgment had not been signed. Mr. HeArn, on The contrary, mantended that the solvent was bound to put it in his schedule as a claim, at the same time stating the manner in which it (its. ginated, )yhich mode would neither prove injuriens t,, Mr. Warburton, nor his . client. Indeed he (Mr. Heath) did not entertain a doubt but the Court might pleceed to adjudicate upon it—for in his opinion the momen t that a verdict was obtained • a debt existed; becau se when final judgment was.signed, the plaintiff must le. trograde to the verdict, born whence arose the con 4. quential damages. It had always been held that an in. solvent was bound to insert bills of exchange and notes 'of hand, not yet due, notwithstanding he was ignorant in whose hands such documents would lie when the. .arrived at maturity. The Learned Gentleman 61,. served, that whatever might be the decision of the Court, it would not annul the claim.nf Nlr.Watburton ; but he thought his client could not sa!ely swear to his schedule, if it was expunged. Hence, he would be de. prived . of a legal privilege, while on the - other 'hand, the opposite party would obtain no possible good. Istr. A uoiPutbs-replied at.great , lerigth i and contend:si that an underwriter might as well come to that Court, and claim to be discharged from the policies on steswi;, the fate of which he had not ascertained. He reiterated hisformer application, contending that the name of his client Melt net to appear•as presedt in law, or in fact he neither a creditor nor claimant. Mr. Commissioner HARRIS referred - to the 18th sec tion of the Act, and stated,.that in reference to causes and resnits of actions, it :referred only to damages re covered, where the .Cotnt •were 'empowered to adjudi cate. In this case no damagos'had ever been av:arded, .therefore• Mr. Warburton could not have opposed suc cessfully under this section of the Act. Upon the whole of the arguments and facts before the Court, it was of opinion that the debt could not stand on the schedule in any shape; and upon this ground they would order it to be expunged. Mr. Heo'rn obtained leave to insert •the fact as it stood, 'by way of memorandum ; but when this was •done, the insolvent refused to swear to the schedule in the form prescribed by the Court ; but in the , courte of the morning he altered his mind. .Mr. Adolphus hav ing left the Court, the appl;cation was refused, and the insolvent ordered, on notice being given to Mr. Addl. phus, to come up on afuture they. Thisbeing the first application ef a similar statute, its novelty es •citeti-a good deal•of integre.
