About half past ten, Lord Chief Justice ABBOTT. with his Learned .Colleagues, took their seats on the Bench, dressed in their toll robes, and the Learned Counsel having sat down, the Court proceeded to take motions, beginning within the Bar. Nothing worthy of notice occurred during the morning. We have already given a full description of this Court, consequently any remark as to its appearance, here, would be a mese repetition of what has been already stated. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. The Barons took their seats on the Bench at twenty minutes to eleven o'clock. The LoaD CHIRP BARON called on the King's Counsel to bring-on their respective causes in ►egular order, which was accordingly done. The situation of this Court has also been fully described. By eleven o'clock a very great number of persons had assembled, and were much disappointed at not witnessing a procession, as it had been erroneously sup rued the Judges cf the respective Courts would have gone in state to.

The grand Battle Sinfonia drew down great arid rited applause, and afforded a rich finish to the evening's entertainments, which were wound up by "Goa save the King," in fine style, the whole vocal strength of the Theatre being called into action. On the whole, the performance was highly gratifying to the Public, and creditable to the taste of the conductor. • COVEVT-GARDIEN. The Oratorios at this Theatre commenced last night, under the direction of Sir Gunton Su A sr, and ate to be continued, both on Wednesdays and Fridays, during Lent. The performance was " The Messiah," with . MOZART'S additional accompaniments; and the body of vocal talent exhibited is considerable.

Few persons have seen more of high life than the Margravine of Anspach ; born of and allied to noble families, and possessing personal charms and literary talents of.* high order, she found a ready passport to every Court of Europe *here she visited. With such facilities,. and her discernment and keen ob s ervation, it is not snrprisingthat she should have witnessed many extraordinary Adventures, and treasured up much anrc• dote ; these she now gives to the public in two very in tei esting volumes of Memoirs, from which we shall,, on a future day, give some extracts, in the meantime wr strongly recommend the work to our readers. Papers on Naval Architecture, and other subjects con nected with Naval ,Scienee, conducted by WILLIAAI MORGAN and AUGUSTIN CRIEUSR, Naval Architects No. 1. London, 1826. At a time when Great Britain had to sweep from evert ocean, enemies which her naval supremacy had provoked, little could he done in the way of experi ment in Naval Architecture, but now that peace gives us more leisure in the construction of new iesiels, the Lord, of the Admiralty have spared no pains to render the science of Naval Architecture as perfect at possible, by liberal encouragement to new di.coveries, and by experiment. The object of the work before us is, to collect all the information that can be obtained, on Naval Architec ture and other subjects connected with naval science.— The first Number displays much talent on the part of the conductors, and contains not less than sixteen essays on these subjects, well written ; the work cannot fail of proving very valuable, in a country so justly proud of its naval glory as England, and which it is calculated to promote in no ordinary degree. The Quarterly oriental Magasine, Review, and Register. , • No. VI. April to June, 1825. While some East India Proprietors are urging a more general knowledge pf Oriental literature to persons des tined for India, those already there prove that it is by no meas.: neglected : for proof of this, we need only refer to the proceedings of the literary and scientific institu tions in India, and indeed to the Quarterly Oriental Ma gazine now before us, which contains several valuable papers, in the shape of critiques and essays, illustrative of the literature, history, and antiquities of Hindastan. The political and miscellaneous notices, register of Oc currencess &c. ate well drawn up, and are userul_ for reference as sell as for immediate peiusal. Literary and Miscellaneous Memoirs. By Jon i's Citiobcic, Esq.-111;A. F.R.S. SOD. Londos, 1826. We have already given- a few saecdotes from this very entertaining volume, which was first printed, for private- circulation .only, The author is an amiable Leicestershire Gentle van, who . has now passed hit tight?-fifth -year, yet, as he truly observes in the lan guage of ,Shakspeare, which he takes as an epigraph, " Yet bath his night of life some naemrtß4.-:1 , --- '." Mr. Cradock has from early life been in the habit of * Mixing with all- the. literati of his time,. and. he is familiarly. and with as perfect a recollection of - Di.; Johnson, i)r. Goldsmith, Lord Thurlow, Sterne, Gar lick, Foote, and other worthies of that now olden time, as.if he had mixed with them but yesterday. Isis work is full of original and highly interesting anecdotes of distinguished persons, for whose memoirs it may furnish some good additions. We have little room for extract, bat shall quote a coople of anecdotes: " Soon after Mr. Thurlow was made Lord Chan cellor, he addressed his brother in the following words : Tom, thete is to be a drawing-room on Thursday, where I am obliged to attend, and as I have purchased Lord Bathurst's coach, but have no leisure to give orders about the necessary alterations, do you see And get all ready for.me."fhe Bishop, always anxious to obey the sic volo, sic jaw, of his brother, immediately bestirred himself, and everything was considered as completed in due time ; but when the carriage came to the door, the Bishop found that Lord Bathurst's arms had never been altered, and knowing his brother's hasty temper, he happily hit immediately on the only expedient to prevent a corm : the door was held open till the. Lord Chancellor arrived, and as soon as he was seated, and had fully examined the interior, he stretched out his hand, and most kindly exclaimed, ' Brother, the whole is finished entirely to my satisfaction, and I thank you: The same expedient, as to the door, was resorted to again at his return from St. James's, and of course no time was lost to remedy sll defects." " Dr. Percy took me with him to Johnson's apart ments in Bolt Court, Fleet-street, and we found hire. relling,op on the Boor, surrounded with books, which had just, been brought in to him ; and he shewed us a penis Bible, which he considered as particularly curious. Dr. Percy, in the course of conversation, mentioned some friend of theirs who had taken a short journey into the cuuntry on horseback; but by setting tut too late had got wet through, and had lost his labour. " Sir," exclaimed Johnson, mankind mis calculate in almost all the concerns of life. This man . set out too late, got.wet through, and lost his labour; but then, I suppose, he hired the.horse the cheaper." ITALIAN LITERATURE.—DANTE, &e. In volume eighty-one of the Giornale Arcadico, just ptiWished, we find the following information, which ,till be highly gratifying to the lovers of Italian Literature: "Professor lezzi, Librarian of Batberini literary, has made the valuable discovery of a Dante, with the com mentaries of Lauderio, full of marginal notes, in the hand-writing of.

Ye:today a large Meeting of Silk wearers was held at the Church of Sr. Matthew, Bethnal-green, to receive the Itepon of a Committee to present a Memorial to the Board of Trade, kc. Mr. limas BAZIR, WU called toshe Chair. : Mr. WA Lids said, that memorial had been presented, and last Wednesday was appointed for a conference on the subject. The Committee met Mr. Huskisson, Mr, Grant, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer. The con ference lasted 'upwards of two bouts, The Ministers of the Crown contended, that the evil did not arise from the contemplated measures held out, but from other causes, namely, an overstocked market, as well as a general depression, which had also affected other trades. On the contrary, we contended that it princi pally arose from the repeal of the prohibitory laws, for these reasons-Ist, Because the general depression bad been progressively advancing before it was So severely felt; idly, All previous slacks of trade were partial, and in many cases only affected particular branches ; but, in the 2d, the depression was general, and affected the whole without even hope itself. The Ministers then maintained that the superiority of the English manu facture would command the market, and that a con titer-able part of our fears bad • their origin from mar -1 selves, as, bygiving publicity to those alarms, we gave at 1 1 the sametime I degree of confidence to .the French manufacturer, who would naturally lay a greater price on his goods, and such a one as would bring them on an equality with each teller. To this we-replied, that the English dealer in silks, as .a man in business, would, if he got the foreign five to ten per cent. cheaper, not only recommend them, but say they were English ; that we never admitted we were unable to meet them in the market, provided we were placed on anything of an equal loosing ; but so long as such a disproportion in the price of food and house-rent existed, as well as the necessaries required by the people of France as con trasted with those of these countries, together with the benefit of a climate affording them the raw matetial upon the spot, gave them an advantage, which even the protecting ditty of SO per cent. could not guard us against. Mr. H •rnewoed who accomp trued us, then pressed the Ministers for an explanatory answer, when they replied, " we had all their arguments on the subject, and we knew out own, and were therefore capable of forming an answer, as well as any they could furnish." Mr. PATTON, another of the Committee, said, Mr. Huskisson had declared, that if be was convinced by argument that-the general benefit of the country, and the prosperity of the Silk Trade required it, he was not so wedded to his opinion as to prevent him going to the House of Commons arid &daring his opinion of the error under- which he laboured two years before. His Majesty's.. Ministers farther replied, that every other trade thought they ought. to be exempted from tha general principle, upon the grounds of some pri vate peculiarities in ;heir trade, which ought to exempt them, but when fOund to be acted upon, was declared to be beneficial ; they then instanced the iron trade. We Contended, that SO per cent. only acted as a bounty upon snsuggling, in, detection -after any admission of the article into the country would be totally imprac. for, as the law at present.stood, being prohibited, they were, upon proof, liable to seizure. Detection. would be out of the.qoestion. He siacerely believed his Majesty's Kiaisters wished well to their country. and were only for the presen i misled by false representations. • _ _. . Mr. 4.0. on ex; a manufacturei, said, he then held in his hands some patterns of silk which he had.receirred ,frogs L - hndwiltitlibe would hanet heir C. mrnittee, for their government. It would be .seen from that statekiebty that.. the French - tnanufactuser could lay Oros de NaPles silk upon the trader's counter, after pa_yinp, 41jtti t commission, &c. for Si. 7d. per yard ; and if he (Mr. Walden) went with the money in his pocket to the East India House, he could not buy the raw material for less than Ss. q.t. Mr. Fos proposed resolutions to the following effect :- 1. That the Meeting reeeive with sorrow and regret, the report of their Conimktee en the- terniination of the business of their Metnerial to the Board'of Trade, so the subject of their grievances. a. That it is the opinion of the Meeting that the distress at present is owing to thetdea of the ingrenetion of foreign wrought silks into Great Britain and Ireland in Jultnext. 3. That this Meeting is firmly of opinion, that should the measure be carried into effect, it will tend to neatly annihilate the Silk Traile in these countries, and thereby reduce • half a million of industrious individeals to a state of degradation, starva tion; and pauperism. 4. That it Is the opinion of this Meeting we *atilt nee every Constitutional means lb our power to remove the evil whit% has cense upon us, and Is dally increasing. • S. That a Committee of sin persons be , appeinted (If possitrie*t to obtain a repeal of such patts of the An as relate to the 'portatioa of Foreign Wrought Silk into this country) The Committee were then ai!pointed ; after which they separated. - The Committee appointed on Siturday, for the I purpose of receiving the subicriptiohs, met yesterday at the WrAers' Hell, in Basinghall•street ; the Right Rev. the Bishop of Chester, who has been through out most 'active in favour of the sufferers, took the Chair. The best mode of distributing the relief WAS discussed, when, with a view to confine it to the ob jects for whom it was specifically raised, a considerable 'ember of manufacturers, residing in all parts of the district, were added to the Committee. A printed form, specifying the age, number in family, &c. wis agreed upon, whirls form is required to be attested by the signature of the Master in whose employment the ap plicant may have been for the last twelve months ; these printed forms are forthwith to be delivered to the Master Manufacturers, at the Vestry Room, in Spiral fields.
