• . V THE FEMALE CONVICT TO HER INFANT. Oh ! sleep not, my baby, for the morn of to-morrow Shall 'nosh me to slumber more tranquil than thine, The dark grate shall shield me from shame and from sorrow, Though the deeds end the doom of the guilty are mine. Not long shall the atm of affection enfold thee, Not long shalt thou bang on thy mother's fond breast ; And who with the eye of delight shall behold thee, And watch thee, and guard thee, when I am at rest ? And yet doth it grieve me, to wake thee, my dearest, The pup of thy desolate mother to see, Thou wilt weep when the clank of my anti chain thou bearest, And none but the guilty should mourn over me. And yet I must wake thee—for whilst thou are weeping, To calm thee I stifle my tears for a while ; But thou stunt In thy dreams, whilst thus placidly sleeping• And, oh! how it wounds me to gaze on thy smile! Alas! my sweet babe, with what pride had I prat thee To the bosom that now throbs with terror and shame, If the pure tie of virtuous action had blest thee, And hailed thee the heir of thy father's high name? But now—with remorse that a►ails not—l mourn thee, Forsaken and friendless, as soon thou wilt be, In a world, if it cannot betray, that will scorn thee— Avenging the guilt of thy mother on thee ! And when the dark thought of my fate shall awaken The deep flush of shame on thy innocent cheek, When by all, but the Gorr of the orphan forsaken, A home and a father in vain thou shalt seek— I know that the base world will seek to deceive thee, With falsehood like that which thy mother beguill; Deserted and helpless...to whom can I leave thee ? Oh ! Goo of the fatherless--pity my child! GARDNER PEERAGE. Mrs. SARAH MITCHELL examined. How many children have yin had?—Eight.

(By a Lord)—What sort of a looking chikt was this when it came into the world ; was ft like your other children ?—Tbe Doctor, who was my accoucheur, said it appeared as if all its limbs were out of joint. Was that the only difference between that child and the others ! —Yes.

Yesterday a Meeting of the Members of this Society took place at the Fieemasons' Tavern. The lleport stated that the Society laboured under considerable dif ficulties. It had been established eight 'ears. It afforded relief to beggars, who appeared upon investigation to have been forced into the streets by necessity, or pro curing such relief from proper sources. It restrained irk. postors by the employment of constables to perambu late the streets for the purpose of apprehending and en forcing the law against such offenders; and it insti tuted an examination into the merits of begging letter writers. The advantages derived from this plan were of the very highest description, as was evident from the. condition of the public streets. Many deserving per sons had been effectually relieved by the prompt appli cation of the Society's means, and still more by the exertion of its influence, and the most disgusting and annoying class of professed beggars had been removed from the streets. In accomplishing these objects, consi. derable expence had been incurred, and it was with re gret that the Committee found it necessary to come to the determination to give up the two first objects, on account of the state of the finances of the Society; the annual expence incurred amounting on an average to 3,5001. while the average income did not exceed 2,8001. The annual deficiency had, however, hitherto been sup plied from a certain fund subscribed by the Public, as a capital with which to commence operations until the whole of it was exhausted. In carrying on this expence for the public good, the managers thought it their duty rather to be efficient at the risk of' capital than to incur a risk of failure by misplaced economy. A printed statement, which was sent round to the members of the Society, detailed the above, amongst other particulars, and added, that the managers had ap plied to his Majesty's Government for the grant of an annual sum, to which application Mr. Peel had been pleased to observe, " that the Association had his best wishes, and that he should hear with regret that its efforts were relaxed, because he believed it to be a use ful and a well-conducted establi,hment." Several observations were made by Lords Rolle, Calthorpe, &c. upon the subject of the state of the institution. and it was fi.ially determined that active exertions should be made to prevent this establishment from falling to ruin, after which the meet separated. The Jamaica Courant contains the following :- 1 " George Isaacs, a slave, belonging to W. H. Hall, Esq. was yesterday brought berme the Sitting Magi's trate., and sentenced to thirty-nine lashes in the Work house, for flying a'kite in the town, in breech of the city ordinance . If every kite : filler in London were Iliable to be punished with thirty-nine stripes, it might prove a good regulation, but what work there would be. Tuesday night, betweea eleven and twelve o'clock, as a Gentleman's carriage was driving by the Golden Cross, Charing Cross, and owing to proper beacons not being set up to guard against it, one of the horses fell into a hole between four and five feet deep. It was not till be tween four and five yesterday morning that the poor animal (a valuable carriage horse) could be extrica'ed, and then he was found so seriously injured that he was immediately killed. DREADFUL Loss OF A WEST INDIA PACKET -BOAT, WITH HER CREW AND PASSENGERS.—Eztract of a let ter from the Agent to Lloyd'rkat Antigua, dated March 4, 1826:—" At four o'clock yesterday afternoon, I re ceived information that a wreck was on the S.W. reef, about three miles to leeward of this Island, and two I.ers , ,ns thereon ; I hastened to their assistance, and found one unfortunate female nearly lifeless, and the dead body of the Captain (He Iry Whitney, Master of the mail sloop Maria); the former proves to be the wife of one of the Methodist Mis.ionaries. Five of these Gentlemen, with their families, 13 in number, together with two others, and the crew, making in ail 22, have perished, except Mrs. Jones, whose life is despaired of, and from whom, at present, no information as -to how ,he melancholy disaster happened can be obtained.— It is supposed that they had been two days in this dread ful situation.—The greeter part of the wreck has drifted down here, and the body of one of the children was picked up on Saturday, with several trunks belonging to them; and there can be no question but that t very person on board her perished. The following are the names of the unfortunate passengers s Rev. T. Truscott, his wife and child; Rev. Wm. Oke; 11ev. Mr. White, his wife and three children ; Rev. Daniel Heillier, who has left a widow and five children at Antigua; Rev. John Jones, and his wife; two coloured female servants, two Gentlemen from St. Thomas's, names unknown ; Capt. Whitney, and a crew of seven persons. Poor Whit ney has left a widow and seven children at Antigua." On - the eve of the departure of the Emoeror ALEX ANDER for the Crimea, at about four o'clock in the afternoon, he wrote to the EMPRESS his mother. The horizon was, on a sudden, obscured by a cloud, and the EMPEROR ordered his valet to bring him lights. How ever, the weather cleared up, and the sun re-appeared in all its glory. The valet returned, arid inquired if he was to bring the lights? " Why do you ask ?" said the EMPEROR, " Because, in our part of the country," re plied the valet, 44 we have considered it a bad omen to write by candle-light during the day-time." " What conclusion would they draw from it? Tell me the truth. You would, no doubt, say, that seeing a light here; those who passed would think that death was in the house r a Yes, Sire." 44 Well, bring the lights." On the first evening after his return to Taganrog, the Efulacin recollected this conversation with his valet ,de-charabre. When he saw him, ALEXANDER said ' 44 Fodor, tie whieb-I ordered you to bring to my 'cletet are notforgotten. ?hey announce my death, and they will burn for met—German Papa. A DUTCH FOST-BOY. The sullenness of the Dutch drivers is such that it is with the utmost difficulty you can procure an answer to any question you may ask. This humour in the lower orders of Mynheers is truly characteristic. A Dutchman is always wrapt up in himself, whatever may happen to be .his condition. He is smoking his pipe, and you disturb him; he is meditating upon his own business, and you interrupt him. It is true you hired his chaise at a certain rate, to transport you from this place to that, which he will faithfully perform. There ends your contract: you did not hire him to be your gazetteer or interpreter. Curiosity is sure to be baffled by such a fellow ; he will either be deaf to the question, or surly if repeated, or ignorant touching the matter questioned, or unsatisfactory in his answer. How many leagues, honest friend, do you count it to Gircum ? " Ugh r says mynheer, "how many did you say ? ugh ! ugh! ug'4!"—which is as much as to say, you might have inquired that before you set out. " we be there by dinner time think you ?" "Ic verstaa u niet." " I don't know what you mean ; what fine castle is that ?" " I gaat my hitt aan r—Tilat's no bread and butter of mine, says the Dutchman—you may make use of your own eyes and welcome, thinks he, but Satan may be your decipherer for me. He takes upon himself the whole command, and is, to all ap pearance no leas the master than the driver.—No man, he thinks, has any sight to direct him in his business, which he knows and will execute upon the mere principle of duty. He sits in the front of the car riage, under the. awning, and consequently interrupts your prospect. He lights his pipe, and fumigates you at pleasure, without ever inquiring whether such incense be grateful to you, especially before breakfast: if you like it, so much the better ; if you dislike it, you will not have a whiff the less. His perfect serenity, and total disregard of his company is such, that you would almost be induced to think his business was to recreate himself rather than serve you. When he is tired of sitting, he stops the horses and dismounts, walks them leisurely, and marches by their side. When he has stretched his legs he stops them again, re-mounts, and resumes the reins. He has his regular houses of call, at each of which he is presented with a dram, and a fresh pipe ready charged with tobacco : he takes the glass from the attendanr, drinks one-half of its contents, and returns it. He next takes the pipe in one hand, -and the fire-pan in the other: he is sure to have his pipe well lighted. He then swallows the remainder of his liquor. Between whiles he takes from his pocket a parcel, neatly wrapped up. He begins to unfold it. 'You perceive several clean paper wrappers, and begin to wonder what they are: they are so dis!inct as not to interfere with each other. In the one thereis bread, in another cheese, and in another, ham, or hung beef, or it may be a pickled herring; and lastly, (in a small pot or saucer) is butter. He spreads his butter upon his bread, lays his strata of hung beef and cheese, and clasps on it its farin recasts cover; these he eats with great composure, driving his horses accordingly. His meal finished, he thiults a little walk would not be amiss, so dismounts as before, by way of aiding digestion. An English coachman, post-boy, or waterman, ge nerally expects some grace from the passengers, over and above his fare; neitlwr is it an easy matter to con tent hiin on that score. A Dutchman has no such ex pectwion. Is it his modesty, think you, that prevents his asking? No. What then? Perhaps he has been taught that it is unmanly to beg,. and that the stated price of his labour is sufficient to support his rank. I believe there is something in that. It it comes without begging, says he, well and good, I shan't refuse it ; but have no title to ak. After all, it may arise from a consciousness that he has not deserved any-thing. His sorry behaviour to his passengers, in my opinion, indi cates no less..—Literary Magnet. The skeleton of a female has been discovered in a house of ill fame in the rue de Richelieu, at Paris, under very extraordinary circumstances. It was found by a foreigner who lodgeJ in the house ; as he was nailing up a picture the panel gave way, and exposed the ske• lawn: the people of the house are in custody. POLICE INTELLIGENCE: G Ut LDHALL The StewattlS of the Fair Prospect Society, held in Fetter-lania appeared to she* cadse why they bad excluded John Eldridge, whd had been a hieMbet 31 years, and was now 77 years of age. The cause now alleged was, that, being at the time on the box, as sick he was found following his ordinary calling, by handing a pair dr second-hand shoes, which were exposed to sale in his window, td l a young man who came In and asked the price. This eircunlstanee 'being reported to the Society by the Assistant who witnessed it; Eldridge was immediately and unanimously expelled, according td their 10th Article, for assisting at work. He was not heard iu hii defence, nor informed of the,charge. Mr. Beresford, the clerk; thought the ground on which they proceeded to expel was instil& dent. In a Benefit Society case that lately got into Chancery the Master struck out all the evidence given by the Members, as being interested, and therefore incompetent. The old man said, his calling was a cobbler, and he did not sell a pair of old shoes in a month. Mr. Alderman TnostemoN thought the man should be reinstated; because he was not detected in any act which a really proper object for relief from•the sick fund might not have done. Mending, ndt vending, shoes, was his ordinary work; and the manner of his sr • pul,ion, without a hearing, and on the statement of an interested party, was improper. Sir JOHN PIRKING, on the contrary, thought Eldridge era, perly expelled, because so old a member must know the strict p, to_ bitiuns to the sick to earn any thing in any manner while on the boh. As there was nu chance of the Aldermen agreeing, Mr. Alderman Atkins was made umpire, and decided for the reinstatement of Eldridge. MARLBOROUGH Sl'itEET. Joseph Lancaster, jun. the proprietor of the " Atlas steam-packet. royal mail, coach, van and waggon booking-office," at the corner of the Regent's Circus, Piccadilly, was again brought bef'sre Sir Gamma FARRANT, yesterday, for further examination on various charges of losing or embezzling the parcels and packages committed to his care; and again the justice-room was crowded to an over flow, by fresh troops of clamorous complainants against him. Among them were some persons who stated that they had booked a parcel at the prisoner's office, containing a sum of money which bad been raised by subscription in London, for the use of a distressed widow in the country; which parcel had not reached its destination, and I they had no doubt its contents had been embezzled by the prisoner or some of his people. Of this, however, they had at present no proof, and, for any thing they were preparedl to show to the con trary, the parcel might have been "bet in a regular way," in which case they would have no remedy but by. civil action. This appeared to be the case, too, with all the other complainants; and therefore no evidence was gone into with respect to any of them. Throughout the inquiry the prisoner's father vehemently pro: tested, as at the first examination, that his son had been mad: the dupe and the " &cape goat " of his book-keeper, Abbot, who, it will be recollected, has been a principal witness for the prosecution ; and, in proof of this protestation, the father said he was now ready to prove that one of the ten pound bank notes stolen out of Mr. Addison's parcel had been paid away by Abbot. He therefore meant to charge hint with the felony. Ulm this charge Abbot was now placed at the bar by the side of his master; and evidence was given to show that he (Abbot) had received change for the note in question, from a butcher living in Jermyn-street. _ Abbot, in his defence, readily.admitted having changed a 101. note as described; but he solemnly denied having stolen it, or knowing th?t it had been stolen. He wasin the habit of going out for change for notes, whenever change was wanted ; and he well recollected, with respect to this particular note, that his master called him into the office, and, pointing to the note which then lay on the counter, told Wm to go out and get it changed, as lie wanted to give change to a Gentleman who was there, booking himself by one of the western coaches. Accordingly he ran out with the note, and havi►►g applied at several shops without success, be at last pro 'cured ten sovereigns for it at Mr. Wakentan's butcher's shop in Jermyn.street ; and his master afterwards sent him back to get mo d the sovereigns exchanged for silver. After some further discussion, master and man were both cow. witted for further examination on Saturday next, at one o'clock.

Mr. Jones, the Vestry Clerk of that ?arias, said it was the intention of the Parochial Authorities to spare no pains or expense to visit the smallest breaches of the peace with the severest punishment, in order to quell the turbulent spirit of the Irish in that neighbour• hood.

The following letter has been received at Wycombe from the person (who is said to be a Quaker) who eloped with his partner's wife: Bristol; Bth of 3d, 1826. " Richard Henningham,—As a matter of course thou wilt feel thyself greatly surprised at what has taken place—rviz. that neither of us intend coming to Wycombe any more ; and in order to set things as straight as the case will admit. thought it best to give ina account of the accounts in Somersetshire. James Bigg owe, 601. 9s. sd. and nine yards of cloth, to be returned, and two coats, which will all be made right when due, which is next month. Mr. Ilyther owes 41. 7s. The other money I have received, which will not be mere than I shall want for my present undertaking ; therefore you must do as well as you can, for I have a long time determined to have done with the concern. I have been sorry ever since the first month I had to do with it, finding myself yoked to such a partner. What with a scolding wife and an idle dissatisfied partner, my life was replete with misery. It cannot be said that C. B. is robbed of money ; for what I brought there, and the labour I have encountered with, I ought to have had three times the sum. I think thou ought not to have entangled me with such a man, as thou well knew what he was; but enough of that. We are about to begin the world afresh, and we do not value other people's opinion about us, for we have neither of, us had a I very smooth passage hitherto; therefore, if it cominue to be rough. we are not unacquaint2sl with it.
