MR. O IVEN. CO THE LITERARY MEMBERS OF THE BRITISH POPULATION. The great object of your ambition is to acquire know !edge : but, while you are ignorant of the laws of your antlire, what knowledge can you be supposed to attain, apable of being applied to any useful or important pirposes? It has been said, that knowledge is power ; and it inay be added, with equal truth, that kuowledgn is hap piness. You wish for both; but panes. neither, except- 1 ing to a very limited extent. The reason is obvious: the knowledge you have ob tained bas been that of lifeless or inferior objects; your acquaintance with these has been limited, and the facts you have discovered have been united to errors of such magnitude, as to depreciate, and to render useless or in jurious, much of the knowledge which has been acquired, and upon which, therefore, you set a most erroneous estimate. How little real benefit or happiness do the public de rive, from all your literary pursuits, and from all the es tablishments for the acquisition of learning, when com pared with the time therein consumed, and with the ex penditure, national and individual, which they involve ! It is sufficient, however, that the inutility of such pursuits has, at length, become obvious ; and that a different di rection is about to be given to mental investigation, by means of which man will obtain a knowledge of its own nature ; and thus be enabled to make a right, and there fore beneficent use, of all the less useful or unimportant knowledge now in his possession, or which be may here after acquire. For the errors of the pest, no one, who has, by ac quiring a knowledge of the laws of human nature, been rendered rational, will ever consider you as blameable. 'these errors have been the necessary, the unavoidable results of the unfavourable and vicious circumstances in which all have been trained, and under which you have hitherto been compelled to live. In giving a new direction to the pursuits of many of your number ; and in re-modeling, and thus rendering efficient for the prosecution of future important designs, the greater proportion of your establishments, your beet interests would be consulted ; for by this proceeding, the greatest amount of real happiness would be afforded and permanently secured to all. If it be a truth (and such all known facts prove it to be) that man never possessed the power of feeling and of thinking as he pleases ; but that he feels and thinks in obedience to the laws of his nature, then do your theological studies, your law investigations, your moral systems, and your theories of government, rest upon an error which is-inde fensible, and which can no longer be upheld in opposi tion to public opinion. By this single, simple, and now almost the best ascer tained and most obvious of all abstract truths, it being in the power of every one to demonstrate it for himself, your learned treatises on divinity, law, morals, and go vernment, are rendered, not only of no avail, but are proved to be a positive evil to the world, in consequence of their filling the mind with confused and fanciful images and notions, which perplex, confound, and ulti mately destroy all the rational faculties which belong to human nature. The training which man has thus received through past ages, has made him a weak, imbecile, and miser able animal, instead of a superior, intelligent, and ra tional being ; a character which each individual is des tined to acquire, as soon as society shall obtain a know ledge of human nature, and shall live under circum stances in unison with its laws. In the promotion of this great change, all the powers of your mind may, most advantageously for yourselves and others, now be called into requisition. A new reli gion, a new code of laws, a new moral system, a new theory of government, and a new science of education, will shortly be found indispensable. Rmional books of instruction for the rising generation, and a 'complete collection of the most useful real objects, or the best representations of these, with correct explana tions of each, will also be immediately required. The history of past ages too, in order to, answer any useful purpose, must be entirely re-written. But in assisting to render perfect the science of the formation of human character, by a full development ot the influence of circumstances in producing vice or virtue, misery or happiness, among the human race, your services will be found the most important. The change, then, which, in consequence of a know ledge of the laws of human nature being obtained, is now about to become general, will be highly favourable to the advancement of your future views and proceedings. Every thing must, of necessity, assume a new cha racter; but the whole arrangement of circumstances pro posed being in strict accordance with nature, the ebony. must unavoidably produce universal satisfaction and happiness. ROBERT OWEN. M, BeUord.aquare, February 1, 1830. SA LONICA, DEc. 25.—This winter is exceedingly ri gorous; the Vardar is frozen in all the upper part of its course ; the mountains as well as the plains are covered with snow in Macedonia. The flocks are perishing in their folds, where they are frequently attacked by nu merous bands of wolves. It is said that the Danube is entirely frozen : nobody remembers having experienced such insensity of told. The lakes are like a huge mass of crystal, and are surrounded with swans and other birds unknown to this country. Numbers of wild geese and (icks cover the islands of the Egean Sea; it is not un likely that it will even spread into Egypt. EXTENSION 07 THE NEW POLICE TO THE EASTERN DISTRICTS.—Notices have been received in the greater number of the parishes constituting the wide and extensive jurisdiction of the Tower Hamlets, of the intention of the executive office of Police, the Secretary for the Home Department, and his coadjutors, the Commissioners, of introducing forthwith, and extending the benefits of the new Metropolitan Police, and placing it in substi tution of the old parochial officers and watch, hich ex perience has proved, from its clashing, and siffereuce in its controul, to be both inoperative and ineffective. The announcement under the statute has been officially made, and bills have been posted on the church-doors, commu nicating to the inhabitants that the change was about to take place, and notifying to them that on the 9th instant they would be no longer under the protection of the old watch, but that the future protection of their lives and properties would be entrusted to the vigilance and pro tection of the New Police. Bodies of the new force, under the conduct of Herring, the Superintendent, were yeatetiay• inspecting the district, preparatory to•their entering , on teem duty, and taking possession of it on Tuesday next.

BOW. STREET. Yesterday Mr. Fenn, the bookseller, of Charing-cross, who bas figured away so prominently in the affairs of &. Martin's parish, appeared before Sir R. Bums, to complain of a report in some of the Newspapers respecting the old book-stalls and apple-etas, set up by poor individuals so the north side of the Strand. Mr. Fenn, who seemed highly indignant oo the occasion, handed the paper to the Chief Magistrate, and having pointed out the ob jectionable passage, required to know whether, in fact, there could be the slightest truth is the report to which he had referred. Sir Ilscamao Bums read that portion of the paper to which his attention had been directed, and at once pronounced the statement to be in all respect. true. Mr. Fens—Were the assertions put into your month and the mouths or the churchwardens, used b. Sir Ricstaaa— I made observations such as are attributed to me, and the churchwardens certainly did assert as la here stated. Having satisfied you as to the truth of the report, I hope you will allow me to proceed with the other badness before me. Mr. Fenn—l trust, Mr. MIIISMOLL, that you will give me a hearing. hfr.bltssnucc—l beg to tell you, sir, that not having been pre sent on the occasion referred to, I cannot listen to your remarks. Hr. Fens—Then I hope Sir Smetana BilLll2 will 111101, me to wake a few observations. Sir Rimmao--Well, I suppose I must ; go on. M r. Fenn—This report assails my character most unfairly, and I wish to show that my conduct was not deserving of the com ments made upon it. Sir Rimmao—Mr. Thomas asserted that you applied to him to remove the old book-stalls from the Strand. Is that so? Mr. Fenn—Same time ago, there was a great many old book- Stab about Charing Cross, but the New Police having removed than from thence, the parties took up their station In the Strand. Sir RiCIIIMID Ihauta—Well, what of that? They got out of your way, and there was an end of the evil, as far as you were concerned. Mr. Fain—They certainly have not Interfered with me • but two or three respectable booksellers complained that three book stalls greatly injured their buskins. Sir RICIIMILD-.- No complaint has been made to any of the autho rides that I have beard of. Mr. Fenn—No, _ the complaint was made to me. Sir FLICHARD— Well, but what had you to do with the matter • U these persons kit aggrieved , would not their applicadon receive as much attention as yours. You are not an inspector of pa Mr. Penn—l happened to meet Mr. Thomas In the and, and spoke to him on the subject. observing. at the same time. that per sons who actually were inhabitants of the parish ought to be treated more leniently than those who came trona a distance. Mr. Thomas said be would report the matter at Scotland-yard and speak to Sir R. Wok. Sir ftscnaaa—Well, and he has done an : what then ? I don't see that you had anything to do with the matter. Mr. Fenn—ln this report it 1. asserted that the poor's-rates were heavier during my year of office than at any period either prior or subsequent. I owe it to my own character, therefore, as a public man, to ask whether each an assertion was made? Sir Itscnaan—Certainly ; and 1 believe I am in the hearing of several gentlemen who can corroborate what I say. Mr. Fenn then entered iuto • long detail respecting the condition of the parish at the period during which he was overseer. It had been admitted, he said, by Mr. Devine, that there were fewer pauper, in the workhouse now than in th e years 1111 a and 1919; and also that provisions were now much cheaper than during those years. The poor's-rates bad also risen front ed. to 11d. since the period to which be had referred. fair liacnaas—l don't know anything more on the subject than what the churchwardens, who must be in possession of accurate information, asserte d . _ _ _ Mr. Fenn (whose choler seemed on the rise)—All I can say, Sir Richard filmic, is, that if I were to disclose all the transactions respecting the affairs of this pulds in which you and I took a pare Sir RICMAILD (laughing)—lt would not reflect much credit on either of us. That is what you meant to have said, I suppose. Mr. Penn—Certainly. We have met at many a parish dinner. Sir Itioneae--Very likely. I have been at many parish diluters in the course of my life, and shall again, please Goa. Mr. Mutsuou. here put an end to the coormeation by declaring that enough had beeo said on a subject that could in nowise be considered as proper for Magistrates to emends'. Mr. Fenn then retired, apparently not quite saddled. Elko Smirk was yesterday brought before 0. R. Miashull, E.g. charged with having been riotous and disorderly on the preceding night. The constable No. 156, F disision, said that the prisoner was one of the greatest pests that Infested the streets, and on the present occasion her conduct was scandalously indecent. She out only used the most abominable expressions, but insulted respectable persons as they passed her. He therefore felt it his duty to take her into custody. Mr. Mitrauvu. said be bad acted very properly, and expressed a hope that the Dew police would particularly direct their attention to the conduct of unfortunate females, who, though depraved theimaalver k should not use language in the streets that must be re pulsive to the ears of modest females. He therefore semeoced her to seven days imprisonesent in the House of Comities. The poker was proceeding with the prisoner to the lockmp place, when she sodUenly slipped tremble grasp, and springioglihe an enraged derma towards the constable, inflicted a tremendous blow with her demised fist on his eye, exclaiming, " There, take that, yen akkeiseilleg OW I'U leave you something to re member me mil I limeid um" Allomnraa .1110 fury to be brought back, and t h e n bee la a of 1100 which being unable to pay, she was aintliftted for twig months haired of seven days. welchihrinthest-1111111611 ldeeray appeared to charge the driver et a I= Dinlipstly driven against his gig. that us Saturday last, he drew up to the seeb.siesse, to spook to a tr adesman ' In the Strand; and abore was abon of room. the defendant drove so e= Mto loth the wheels of the two vehicles.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, February 2. .Tain tug was opposed by a creditor named John Shea:croft a talkie. The Insolvent came up on the 6th ult. when be underwent a long examination by his opposing creditor. It appeared he had merely described himself as clerk and assistant, without stating to whom or la what line of business. It turned out, co examination, that he was an assistant to what was termed a " subscription home," at No. 10, Kiststreet. St. James's ; he was pressed to give the names of Ms employers. and after conddenble hesitation be stated that were only two proprietors of the house, named Disbrow, and Eppingbam. He had lived with a female named Maria Du Puts, whom he had represented to his creditors to be his wife, in Clarendon-square; the house was well furnished, but be declared that the lease of the house and the furniture ail belonged to her; from Clarendon-square they removed to Walcot-place, and from thence to Bidborough-strett. His salary was about 3001. a year, and be stated in his schedule that his insolvency arose from the expense to which he was put by supporting his mother and sisters. The Cocas required further proof that the furniture was not the insolvent's. and In consequence. Maria Du Pula was called, who swore that the furniture was hers, having been given to her by a gentleman 16 years ago. She also produced the deeds of the se veral houses in which she and the insolvent had lived, and they were all in her name. The Cons? ordered the cue to stand adjourned, to enable the insolvent to te-adverdee, describing his occupation more distinctly than merely as " clerk and assistant." They also observed that it was quite preposterous, seeing bow the insolvent bad been living, to suppose that his Insolvency arose from the expenses attending the support of his mother and sisters. To-day, the insolvent again came up, having in the interim de scribed himself as belonging to a subscription-house in King-street, Bt. James's. The Court observed, that no case of opposition had been sub stantiated spina him, and therefore he was declared entitled to the benefit of the Act of Parliament. Abraham Law's, a farmer, late of atzlentore. in Sussex, was °P by two creditors, named William Lamont and John Tribe. i gs ld Court called the first-named opposing creditor forward, and be got into the witness-box. Caw Cosoustuonza—What relation are you to the insolvent? Lissom-1 am his son. Cum Cotoussoxisa--I see by the schedule be owes you 4100, Have you an questions to put to him? Lassam.—No. Came Co'anassott against your father? re you any 'eidetic* td f t,. yourself - . Lassam—No. Cum Comatusscumn•—Or any witnesses to call ? Laseam—No. (Loud laughter.) CM'S' Cossumuom—Then what do you come here for? Lassam—To oppose my father. Carus Coarsuassosixa—There are only titter modes of doing that either by examination, by giving evidence yourself, or by calliai witnesses. Will you choose to do ooe of drive three things? Lammas—He owes me £lOO. Outs Comannuosiss--Do you wish to give any evidence ? Do you complain of any thing? Lassana—He owes me £lOO, and Cuter Comusasomas—Well, Sir, and what? Lassaus—And I should like to have it. (Loud laughter.) Cane Comassaawasa—ls that all you wish to say? Lassam—Yes. Cater Comussuoosa—Then you may wand down. At the request of the other opposing creditor's Counsel, who said, that as it might perhaps be necessary to examine the son as a witness, he was ordered out of Court during the examination of the insolvent. The insolvent was then examined at very great length, when it appeared, that in May, 18211, he sold all his property at Billingburst by auction i for about 11041. about 861. worth of goods being bought by himself and sense friends for him. Two waggon loads of fur niture were removed from Billinghurst to Haslemore, part of which he bad given to his children, and the rest be bad subsequently dis posed of. Excepting the 881 worth of goods bought in, be bad spent all the remainder of the produce of the Mir upon hi mself.: In March, 1829, be was arrested, but remained at large upon bail until the 3d of November, when he rendeted to the King' s Bench prison. The ellSOlVeln was nest examined as to the disposition of other property, no mention of which wasanade in the schedule : the account given by the insolvent was extremely unsatisfactory, and his vista sect testimony was cutnpletely at variance with his balance sheet. It was contended on behalf of the opposing creditor, that there was a concealment or fraudulent disposition of property. Mr. Coon addressed the Court for the insolvent. The Cum Consumaneza said, it appeared quite clear to the Court that the insolvent's balance sheet was so constructed, that it would not only give no information, but it would deceive the ere dims,. The case must therefore be adjourned, to file a new spe cial balance sheet; and further, as it appeared that the insolvent had, just before be came to prison, given hie son a colt, for which he bad paid 418, that must be given up to the creditors. The case was then adjourned. John Owen, a ship owner, painter, plumber, and glazier, late of 1 Aldermanbury, was opposed by Mr. Nichols, on behalf of Messrs. Chrystal an.l Sun. The insolvent. in his examination, stated, that be had purchased a vessel, called the Mary Ellen, from his opposing creditors, for 4500, paying 4100 in cash, and the remainder by bills, none of which have been honoured. He purchased the vessel merely to serve his brother, who was appointed captain of her, and who had the entire management of every thing relative to.the vessel, order ing repairs, Ste. which the insolvent had to pay. About seven months ago the ineolvest usortgaged the vessel- es Mr. King, of Misting lane, for 4600, and about four months ago Mr. King sold her (by be insolvent's cement) by auction for 44W. He bad also a lease of his house in Aldermanbury, which be deposited with a Mr. Philpots four or Ave months ago for a debt of 4440, that per. ems having previously had a warrant of attorney for 4900, and a promissory note for 450. On an inipsWon tithe insolvent's schedule, It appeared that all the ekcumatances Maths to the warrant of attorney and promis sory note were omitted, and that be bad not properly accounted for tie dhpoeitiess of the 44W mosived from the sale of the venni, The Came ordered the case to be adjourned, to supply the de frets in the insolvent's schedule. ifattaew Beaseiee, a native of Austria, was opposed by Moses. Eddie and Dade, said three other creditors. Tbe insolvent aimed that he bad been discharged in this Court five years ago. &ace then Imo had bean twice in prison, and Wag asked what his real same was, be said it was Matthew Martin &nimbi Booackh. A Credlust—Four news, by wish* you cos ring the changes sixteen times you know. (Lestgliter.) The lambent stated that be petitioned Ibis Caere is me, by the name of Martin Brestaehl, and be had elute brought a■ whoa against Mown. Udders and Dadds In that name, thus Meeting his two middle names, and mew* me Waded* by am. The Coast held that as the insolvent bad not petitioned this C ou rt by his full ssrsas the petition could not stand. The intolvent's petition was then dismissed.

He bad applied to the overseers for assistance, an.l they had refused to relieve Mist, He was in that state uf distress that he must soon either perish from cold or hunger, for he was enable to get any work. Mr. Mansion told Mr. Painter, the overseer, that The wretch, .1 man must be relieved immediately. Mr. Painter said it should be does, and desired the applicant to go to the workhouse and wait until he came, and be should be ad mined Into the house. Mr. Maaasoirs—Par Goo's sake, Mr. Painter, get him to the workhouse as fast as possible, or he may perish In the streets. The poor fellow was then sect to the workhouse. TOWN-HALL. Michael Mal was charged with attempting to steal a silk hand kerchief from the 'hop-window of Mr. Monday. linendraper. In th, Borough. The prisoner was secured in Bed Lion-paisap, and taken back to the shop, where he seised a poker. and made a furi ous effort to escape. The whole of the handkerchief not bang moved, owing to the corner tearing of, the case did not amount to a felony ; but the prisoner, being known as a reputed thief, wag connulued to Brlztoo for be full term of three months. UNION-HALL. A good-looking man, dressed as a butcher, wbo gave Ms name lewd= isteries, was brought op before the Magistrates, charged with having stolen two large pieces of meat from a butcher's shop in Newgate•market. The person who appeared against the prisoner was an elderly in dividual, who merely requested that the prisoner might be re manded, anti! Mr. Wikon coed attend; but as that did not seem satisfactory to the Magistrates, as the prisoner vehemently pro tested his innocence, we give his own account of his apprehension. Saturday last, be went to Mr. Goodelsild's shop, with whom he said he was io the habit of dealing, and bought a piece of meat.-- On the Monday following, he went and purchased two more pieces, for which he was to pay sometime during the week. These piece. of meat he took to his brother's shop to sell, who was a butcher St George's-market in the Borough. By some mistake, the porno from whom be bad bought the meat, Mr. Goodchild, put them down to the account of a Mr. Wage. who had very large dealings with bins (Mr. Goodchild.)— Upon the bill being seat in to Mr Vinton, be immediately'denied having mined each a quantity; and upon hearing that the pri soner bad obtained it, without waiting for an esplanade)°, bad him arrested. Upon this statement, Mr. Caesurae' was about to dis charge the prisoner, when Chief Constable Hall stepped forward, end stated that his brother was now ender confinement for trial on a limas. charge. The prisoner was then sent over to the Manama House, the of fence having been committed within the jurisdiction of the City. TH A M RS-POLICE. A middle-aged woman, with an infant in her arms, and See little children, preferred a complaint against the overseers of Ratcliffe. The applicant stated that her husband, a coal-whipper, had his foot crushed, and the limb amputated, and was now in the Heepital. She had applied to be admitted with her family to the work-house, but had been refused. Mr. Lewis, the assistant-overseer, said the applicant was allowed Se. a-week. which the overseers thought sufficient for the support of herself and family. Mr. 8110DZIUP said that 55. a-week for the support of seven per sons, less than a penny a-day for each Individual, was not enough. It was at length agreed that the woman and her family should be received into the house. FIRE, ATTENDED WITH LOSS OF LIVE.-Between the hours of ten and eleven on Monday evening, a fire brok out in Brunswick -street, Blackfriare-road, at the house of Mr. Street, a mathensatiaal instrument maker. The engines were presently at work. By this time two or three person, who were lodging in the house, had got their goods into the street, and it was not known that there were any other individuuls on the premises ; but presently Mr. Street, to the horror of the by standees, rushed out amongst them, enveloped in flames, his clothes were literally burnt off his back, and the Barnes were not put out until a hrge quantity of water had been thrown over him. The sufferer then called out. " Oh, my poor wife," when he fell down in a state of insensibi lity, and was immediately removed to the Hospital. By this time the fire had been much subdu e d, a nd, on P ar ki ns , o f t h e Gl o b e engine, going into the roan in which it was supposed to have ori ginated, he was shocked to observe him Street upon the floor burnt to a perfect cinder! Mr. Street is not ezpscred to recover ; both himself and wife were upwards of 70 years of age. BIRTHS. At Dennlstoun, Van Diemen's Land, the lady of Capt. Wood, of a son.
