Ma thias, who sat in petty sessions on Thursday, on sum.' monies, to show cause why they had refused to pay the Church rate assessed in February, 1826. The refusal of the majority appearing to arise rather from a spirit of personal hostils , y to the parish officers, thanany com plaint of the excess or illegality of the assessment ; prde►s were made against defendants for the immediate liquidation of their respective proportions of the rate. EDINBURGH, Frs. B.—Tuesday night, at the Dum biedikes, a vast sensation was produced by a report that a woman had hanged her husband. The rumour was strictly correct. Tr e woman, who is addicted to drinking, had taken the opportunity of her husband being, asleep, to put a noose round his neck, and suspend him trona a hook in the ceiling of the room. Most providentially, his dauehter•in-law came to the place, and rescued him from the late which was intended for him. The man is a to li-splitter, of excellent character ; his age is 65, and that of his wife 66. They have bad a family of nine children. The woman is in custody. SUSPENNION RAILWAY IN TIM VIcvuALLIIIS YARD, DIMOAD.—This Railway was constructed in July last, for the purpose of conveying provisions from the Stores to the Qury. Previous to that period, the bar rels were rolled over the ground. The distance from the Storehouse to the Qoay is 174 yards. One man, by the old mode, could roll but one cask, and the time spent in rolling it from the Store to the Quay, and in returning, was such as to render a great number of men necessary for the loading of a vessel, and the inconvenience was felt peculiarly in war time. Trucks and light cartiages were resorted to, but great loss if time, and much IRCollvenieate, were suffered even by that mode. By the Railway the difficulty is avoided. It is formed by a line of cast-iron piHars, upon which planks are laid upon their edge. Upon theupper edge of the plank is fastened it cast-iron rail, about four inches wide, three quarters of an inch thick, and form ing a plane for the reception of the wheels of the car riage, wedges being provided in the pillar for adjusting the plane, in case any pillar should sink. Thecarriage las Once wheels, the one following the other; from the stir of the wheels an iron frame is don on each side, rod reaches within a few inches of the ground ; at the bottom of the frame is a platform, on which the barrels, a:e felled ; it holds sir casks on each side, after the manner of panniers; the Railway is laid upon a slightl inclination, rising about one toot in 150; two men can draw 12 casks at one time, at o quicker pace than they usually walk, and having discharged their load at the quay, they mount the cart iage, and giving it a slight impulse., it rolls along with them at a rapid rate; the length of the Railway is 520 feet, and the journey back is performed in half a minute. By this mode Pro visions are conveyed at the rare of twelve miles an hour, and TWO men can transfer upwards of 1000 casks in a day, rAitiiONABLE INTEtLt9ENCE. 41/13ilra& **- tie Earl and Counter of Hardwick and Penelly. at *sirloin, in St. Jarneersqsare, from their rat, Wimpele, Cambridgesidre ; A.

NATIONAL MONUMENT TO THE /JEWRY OP HIS LATE ROYAL HIGHNESS THE DUKE (419(0111‘. The Provisional Committee met yesterday, at the Rooms offered by the Royal Union Association, in Lancaster-place. Letters from numerous distinguished Iffoblensen, eager to participate in the honour of promoting this national object, were read. It was ietettnised. that as it might give satisfaction to the public to know, that the subject was not t a ke n pup for the benefit a any individual artist, it should be announced that the. work should be emoted by com petition among British Artists, under the superintend- ence of a Committee appointed by the subscribers. It was then resolved unait imam sly, that Lord Carberry should be added to the Committee, and that Lieut.- Geoeral John Slade, who had forwarded a subscription of 1001. should be requested to act with the other die. tingpished individualsorhose set vices were thus engaged. Arrogements were then made for a general invitation to the friends of the undertaking, to hold meetings in various places, particularly in Ireland, in aid of the subscription; and, with a view to render the measure ly national, it was finally resolved, that it was best consulting the feelings of the public to make the sub scription unlimited, and to receive the smallest amounts tendered. The ales of Sletretary was thee resigned by the Gant Isom who held it pro tem until the Committee was formed. into the hands of Oen. Malt!sod. who had handsomely offered Ms services as Haw rary Smretary.—The Meeting then adjourned to reklarieu. MR. ELLISTON'S BANKRUPTCY. An Adjourned Meeting of the Creditcirs was held yesterday, before the Commissioners. In answer to questions put by the Commissioners to the bankrupt, it appeared that there was a difference of nearly %COOL in the value of the properties, &c. between the time Mr. l Elliston got possession, and the period when the Theatre was taken from him. The property had been increased that sum in value. It was not any part of his wish to impugn the conduct of the proprietors in takittg the Theatre out of his hands. However, he considered him self at present a ruined man, having lest several thou sands there. The Cosattsstomra asked him, did he consider the awns claimed as rent as a just debt? Mr. Milistoo—l do decidedly ; but whether it is a matter of do. licacy on *heir part to press it, tinder AU the circumstances of the case, is another question. The Commissioners put several questions tothe bank rupt, as to his not getting a lease from the proprietors ; and also as to the reason why he had expended so much money in the Theatre, and thereby involved hinsself so very considerably beyond his power to pay? Mr. Elliston said he was perfectly satisfied with the agreement entered into, and did not require a lease; besides, he considered that iq point of an agreement was as binding as alease :but the fact was, relying on the other parties, be was too indifferent to his own in-, terests. The sans which he was to expend the first year was 6,0001. but eventually, in consequence of the estimates being incorrect, a sum of not less than 20.0001. was expended for the carpenters, bricklayers, • and de-1 corators' works, exclusive of the expense of the scenery. He had-bills to produce for that suns._ Hated under- , I the alterations in the theatre, in consequence al what seemed to be the public voice. spoken through the audibly% of the public press. The inner walls had been entirely cut asunder, and, in fact, the whole interior of the theatre had been rebuilt. The proprietors had, it was true, taken advantage of .the lease, and deprived him of the theatre,lut be did not accuse them of doing any -thing improper, as the law allowed them to do sa., The Commisstowaste asked what had passed betweeni the bankrupt and the proprietors, with regard to the rent claimed when the Theatre was taken from him—hid they (the proprietors) given him any quittance ?—The baakrupt replied not. At that meeting be had made a feeling and manly appeal to the proprietors-•had stated that, for himself, he required nothing, as he could earn bis own bread—but, on the part of his son, he certainly did appeal to them, to allow him the advanced rent, which had keen obtained in consequence of the improved state of thlTheatre. A memorial to that effect had been since drawn up by bis ion, but he (the bankrupt) had had nothing to do with it. It further appeared that in the season previous to his losing the Theatre he lost a sum of about 5001. a week for about 12 oe 15 weeks ; and that all Siang be bad considered the claim made for Me rent a legal we; end that it had, In fact, been made foe Ids hateht. inc BISHOP OP LINCOLL—Dr. PtLHAM WU young est sea of the late, and brother to the present, Bart of Canciasseza. He was born on the 13th of October, 1766. and married in 1799, Maar, daughter of Sir Rieman', Arcaorr. He was consecrated Bishop of Bristol in 11102; translated to Exeter In 1310 ; and on Dr. Towusz being moved to the See of Winchester is 1920, his Lordship was translated to the Bishopric of Lincoln. His Lord. ship was also Club of the Closet to the Kum, and Canon Redden. dary of Chichester. An uninformed Irishman heating the sphinx alluded to in company, whispered to a friend, " Spiky I who's be now r • A monster.man." " Oh, a Monster-osolti I thought he was from Connaught," replied the Irishman, determined not to seem totally yowl - waited with time A file of papers from Port. au-Prince (Hayti) to the 17th December was received yesterday. They contain no news, but seem to establish the fact, which has been so much disputed lately, of the existence of a rural code in Hayti, as the Telegraph of the 12th of Novem ber contains a notice from the clam of the Chief Secre tary to the Government, Suing the amount of stamp duty to be on certain contracts prescribed by the law No. 3, of the Rural Code. It appears also by the address to the Chamber of Deputies in Hayti, at the close of the session on the 10th of May last, that a Rural Code is mentioned as one of the measures com pleted during its continuance. No copy of such a code has, however, reached England by the present arrival. Thirty-three miles between Liverpool and Manches ter are performed by coaches in two hours and three quarters I Half a minute is allowed for changing horses, at which eight persons are employed—four to remove the horses, and four to place fresh ones to the coach. During the late inclement weather, a poor little sweep having to sweep a chimney at a Gentleman's house in the neighbourhood of Colchester, sat himself down at the door till the family were stirring, when he fell asleep, and was found with his feet so frost-bitten, that on being received at the Essex and Colchester Hospital, amputa tion of one of them was found necessary. ANOTHER STRATFORD JPSILRI.--SOMe of our older readers recollect the Stratford Jubilee celebrated in the year 1769, under Garrick's auspices. It seems that an, effort is to be made to get up a dramatic pageant this year, on the 23d of April, the anniversary of Shakspeare. The Mayor and Aldermen of the borough, ix. have kindly offered to take the lead in the proposed pageant, which, no doubt, will be very splendid and eccentric.

MEETING OF THE NURIViCH CRAPE 3IANUFACTURZR& NORWICH, Y icr, Monday last, about eleven o'clock, a very numerous Meeting of the Operatives, competed to be not leis than 4,000 in number, took place at the Ranelagh Gardens, for the purpose of protesting against the manner in which some of the masters had last week met to reduce the wages of weaving crapes twopence per dozen, with out consulting the whole of the manufacturer., and also to send a requisition to the Mayor, requesting him to call a meeting of the master manufacturers to discuss the subject,and consider of the necessity of the reduction. Mr. Passe being tailed to the Chair, opened the business hy Stating, that a report had got into circula tion that the Journeymen Weavers' Committee had given their consent to the reduction ; but he came forward distinctly to avow, that the Committee knew nothing about the proceedings of the masters, and had not agreed to their proposal. Two or three of the manufacturers, he said, bad promised to call a meeting of their own body, to confer with the Journeymen's Committee on the subject, but they had not performed their promise in this respect, and had reduced the wages without the consent of the Operative Committee. Mr. JAMS Warns, a manufacturer, said that he saw ao necessity for the reduction proposed by some of the manufacturers, considering the difference there were in the crape, meaning now and four or five years back.— Formerly, a piece of crape would have come to 255. the piece weaving; but even at the full price now, the greater part of them were made for 17). or 18s. Mr. Basses addressed the Meeting at considerable length. He also agreed with the preceding speaker, in declaring his opinion to be that there was no necessity for the reduction. He knew the price of poor men's labour, and he knew its worth. He bad been a journey man himself, and could speak to it, that they were not a bit too well paid for their work. Mr. Taoism Wavy gas came forward, and spoke at leeldt name a redaction. Mr. hone Buse being caned upon, said, that be eeinsided in chi seatissents Of the manufacturers who had already addressed the llr. tau av also addressed the Meeting, sad snow warmly re. ikede eeowneoded peaceful behaviour, which would redound to their credit as awn and good citizens. The Meeting broke up at one o'clock, and a Requisi. lion was signed, and presented to the Mayor, praying that his Worship would convene a Meeting of the ma nufacturers directly, to convince them of the impropri. ty of reducing the wage. The conduct of the operatives during the Meeting was highly 'decent and becoming, deomb ecea ionally displaying much zeal in the cause; and, aka the is hole, the proceedings were most creditabiastratikaperatives.
