The frost continued vay severe till yesterday fore noon, when the thermometer lose considerably. A sood deal of snow fell on Saturday and yesterday morning, but in consequence i f the thaw it is disappearing rapidly. The wind, however, is still easterly. List night the Edinburgh mail was mote than an hour behind its usual time of arrival. The thermometer of Fahreinheit stood, on the'2B'd inst. at 19, and at one time was so low as 12: on the 26th at 29. The frost has been supposed to be more severe than any which has occurred for' thirty years. Operations have commenced in building the neir bridge over the Clyde, oppniite the Salt-matket, to connect with Hutcheson's Town; Friday night, about eleven o'clock, a fire broke out in the wisest's shop of Mr. Laurence Smith, Canon street ; in consequence of which the house where the fire originated was destroyed, as well as the upper fiat of an adjoining tenement, and three families burnt out. COURT OF LIEUTENANCY. Testes-day, a Court of Lieutenancy was held at the Guildhall. in the City, upon • tubject of Considerable importance. This Court ezei cii.es a jut isdiction, amongst other things, over the City Militia. Some of the Mem bers of the Corporation constitute this Court, which, at it very seldom is occupied with business, rarely assem ble more than once $ year. PRIPOSITION MOM THE GUILE OP WELLINGTON.

It appears that citizens are elected triennially to serve in the City Militia, and an expense of some mo ment is nece,sarily incurred by the appointment; the fees arising from whisk are Gulled trophy money. This has been sometimes complained of as quite unnecessary. It is, it has been said, the wish of the Duke to reduce the &tiff to a mere skeleton. The only individuals who teel a personal interest in ' keeping up this military esta blishment, are Sir C. S.' .Hunter, the Colonel, and Alderenau Joshua JunathAn Smith, the . Lieutenant Colonel of the Mili.ia. CHELTENHAM, JANuART 26. CONSRCRATION OF ST. JOHN'S CHURCH. The consecration of St. John's Church took place on Thursday last. The expectation of the public had been raised to a considerable height, and we may safely say t'irit it was fulfilled to the utmost, throughout the whole of the solemn and interesting ceremony. The arrange , meats for admission by means of orders, which had been previously issued, were duly carried into effect, and all confusion consequently avoided. Between 10 and 11 o'clock the Lord Bishop of GLoucerrea arrived at the residence of theltev.W.S.Pl,illips, B.D. Fellow of Trinity College, Oxford, Minister of the New Cnurch, and was there met by more than thirty of the principal Clergy of the Diocese, and several others unconnected with Chel•enham, or its neighbourhood. At the principal entrance of the Church the Bishop was received by a large body of the n► .st respectable inhabitants of the town, who presented to his Log &Lip a petition, praying' that the Church boat under the provisions of the Fourth, Comasissiuners' Act, sth Geo. IV. cap. 103, might be duly consecrated, and set apart for the celebration of Divine. Service, and other Ecclesiastical purposes. After the various ceremonies connected with the ►olemnity had been performed, and the prayer of the day read, a 'host powerful discourse, and admirably adapted to the occasion, was delivered by the Lord Bishop from St. John, c. xvii. v 20, 21. " Neither pray I fur these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word: That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I In thee, that they also may be one in us; that the world may believe that thou bast sent me." There was afterwards a collection, towards defraying the expenses incurred by the general fitting up of tire church, which, with other contributions forwarded in the course of the day, amounted to the sum of 201t.35.6.1. The levers from Lisbon stale, a secret expedition sailed from the Tagus on the 11th instant, supposed to be for Terceira, to inteirce: t ire Portuguese Refugees. The expedition consisted of a frigate, a corvette, and two brigs of war. • Accounts from Bogota to the 14th - of Nosember, by the Jamaica NIA, cnafirni the anticipation held out in the previous letters, that the punishment of death would not be inflicted on SA*T'ANDER. General Bo- LIVAR, on receiving the sentence of the Court-Mar. tilt!, in Lead of confirming it, as he • seas competent to do, teferred it to the Council of State, acting no doubt under the high minded feeling that as SAN TANDILICIII conspiracy was chiefly directed against his,. BOLIVAIt'S authority, it became him to remain passive on the occasion. The. C.runcii of -Sate has -commuted the punishment', to perpetual banishment from the Republic, loss of task. -.and to -be treated as an out law, if be shall'ever•be found returning to Col•imbia. Persons or. the spot, under tt a influence, doubtless, -of the excitement produced by the atrocious attempt on Bolivar's life, Consider the decision of the Council of State an act of misplaced lenity. But it may happen, on the other hand, that when the indignation of the mo ment shall have passed :away, it may be found that enough has been done to answer the great object which should be kept chiefly in view —the preservation of the public pine for the footle. Yesterday morning, a young man, a painter and gLaier, whoa as engaged to clean the windows of a house in Mitch-street, Lisson.grove, having incau tiously ventuied out the back t o pair of stairs win dow, upon a machine, without having taken the neces sary pecaution i f properly. securing it within, and the. unfortunate man, the moment he stood out on,it, was precipitated into the back 41e4, where he lay until as sistance could be procured. A surgeon w a s sent for, who immediately came and bled him ; his thigh was broken, and he was otherwise most seriously injured' about the body. The unfortunate sufferer was put upon a shutter. and conveyed to the Hospital, without any hopes of recovery. An inquest was last night held at the Rising Sun, Charies.street, Grosvenor-square, on view of the body of a fine new bora female child, which was found in Hyde Perk. From the evidence It appeased that Ns Saturday evening last the unfortunateinfaut was found near tise basin, wrapped up in a piece of green baize. Mr. Hoeslip, a surgeon, gave it as his decided opidion,, that the child was born alive, and had died from ne glect and exposure to the cold. The Jury retutned'a verdict of "Wilful Murder against some person or Fa. sons unknown." Yesterday evening an inquest was held at the Guy, Eirl of Warwick, Belton-street. Long Acre, on the body of Job Davis, a man about fifty years of age, who died in a coffee shop, in Hanover• street, Long Act., on Mon day evening, for want of proper food and nourishment. A verdict to that effect was recorded. IRELAND. -f--~ DUBLIN, JAN. 2S.

"'Lord Levesuii Gower will leave Ireland, to attend his Parliamentary duties, early in the coming week. The arrival of his Grace the Duke of Northumberland in Ireland was originally mentioned by us as likely to occur on the 22d or 29d proximo. Letteis received to day confirm us in the belief that his Grace's arrival will not take place at an earlier day. We think it material to many of our fellow citizens, particularly those in trade, to be correctly apps ized of the time of the Duke's arrival, and they may rely on our authority. Sir SrawA RD Banc; Batt. retains his office of Master of. the Cerenioniis.. Sir G. RICH t tuins that of Chamberlain ; and Colonel Goaz also continues in his office. ~~ I . s. • 1
