Toe piece is a mere burlesque ; boa, for (me of its rapid preparation, it implies industry and ingenuity The present proceedings against her Majesty recta to our mind a circumstance which happened a few years ago at ‘Vigan, in Lancashire. A poor man, who was very obnoxious to the wealthier part of the population of that town, was tried at the Quarter Sessions fbr a misdemeanour. After hearing evidence on both sides, and also a very learned and impartial bumming up from the Chairman, the Jury were or dered to withdraw to consider of their verdict. After a quarter of an hour's consultation they returned, awl the Foreman (a Ea. substantial Burgher) said, "No! tf leave Town." COPPER MI N E.—A bout six months ago, a loimurer employed in cutting a drain on the farm of Lorick. in Galloway, the property of Mr. Murray, of Broughton, discovered apparently a rich vein of copper ore. A short time afterwards the mine, was let to a company in Cornwall, who lately com menced workii:g widt great spirit, and last week shipped a cargo of ore (upwards of .10 tons) on board the sloop Sampson, fur Llanelly, Carmarthen sldre. It was a favourite maxim of the late professor Porson, that " ott in in forgot what it was hls ia terest to MalUilbcr "-- accounts thr the peculiar rntruory of Theodore 1aj0..; i—he is urn paid for rernendxsing oily thing in i‘tV•Ali ‘.l .- the Queen ! Most persons assimilate in their ideas the duties of an Italian Courier with those of au English Footman,—To undeceive such persons we state the following facts.— An English widow, and her fainity of dawahters, the eldest nearly grown up, went to Italy to piss some lime Nitre; and resolving to coidOrm to the Italian ciotomv, iiirm leaving Eicaland they discharged their English servants, and en ;aged au Italian Courier, and with. an English governess travelled in their own eat stage. The courier acted as protector, guide, interpreter, steward, %alet, and lady's Ens:(l, At an Italian inn he first , hops: the lied-looms in the saloon. termed there the pill, and fixed ins own next adjoining the ladies; he then CX.F. mines the beds, gives o u t the bed-linen, and sees the tieds made, in which men in general assist, or make theinvelves. Ile orders the dniner, the ladies not know ing what is coming until it appears; lie discharges all hills of expense, mid in the morning he goes into the ladies' bed-rooms, mkt they have risen, and while they arc 111 the 1 . 00.11, lie collects the bed and other linens packs it tip, or goes it out for wasuing. If the ladies ling from their lira -route, no one inters that lie had been upon a criminal errand ; so &lit:seta are the ser vices 0: au Enalisti Motinan, who would fully justiry the ordmary cases dwelt upon wi:h so imr:ll empnasis by t;le accusing counsel, it ha were seen in an English inn shut in win) pia mistr, 3., in her tont-chamber. Nutpick criminal inference is however made in Italy, front the well known familiar services aid taha it courier pertimins. It is conddently asserted in Paris, that one of the objects of the last audience which Prince Esterhazy, the Austrian Atubit::sador to our Court, had with his Majesty, was to snake known to the King of England that the five years imprisonment of lkina parte, agreed on in 18:5, having expired, Austria would no longer be u party to Ida detention. We understand that it is determined to diminish the expense of the establishment at St. Helena.— Sir Hudson Lowe, and all the land forces, are to recalled, and in future the island is to be gar risoned by marines, and the cominand of the station to be e tt usted to an Admiral. A short time ago, a person with a bag of salt on an ass, under the plea of the animal's being tired, um) its being late in the night, begged permission to to leave the salt at a baker's at Birmingham, Lin colnshire ; this being perceived by a splenetic neigh bour, he gave intOrmation to the excise-officer, who, as the salt was not accompanied with a permit, seized it. The rase came on a few days ago, bethre the magistrates, at the instance of the Board of Excise, awl the tradesman, who very foolishly suffered judgment to go by default, was fined one hundred guineas ! As it was a very general opinion among the inhabitants of Birmingham, that the baker had nut any intention of defrauding any one, many hun dreds of them of both saxes, assembled on Saturday evening last, and placing an effigy of the informer, together with a bag of salt, on an ass, paraded him through the town ; and after a severe flagallation; he was hanged and barut in the market-place, amidst the must uproarious eclat 'the cause in which Marquis Chohnondeley and Mrs. Darner are plaintifk, and La.d Clinton defend ant, came on bethre the Master of the Roils titr judgment on the Bth and 16th inst. when his Ho nour declared that the late Lord Clinton, us heir at-law of Samuel Rolle, took an estate in fee sim ple under the deed of August, 1781, executed by George, Earl of Oxford; that the Bill was imper fixt, by the reason of the present Earl of Oxford not having been made a party in respect of the Dorset estates; that Marquis Chohnondeley had in no event any interest in the estates in question ; and that if either the Marquis or Mrs. Darner ever had any title, they were barred by the statute of limi tations. The Muster thereupon dismissed the Bill. A few days ago a melancholy accident happened in Leeds, As Mr. Joseph Jackson, a promising young man, the son of Mr. Robert Jackson, a cloth dresser, was adjusting one of the straps on a machine at his fathers gig -mill, in the Leyland;, his arm was caught by the strap, and in a moment he was drawn into the revolving machine, which could nut be stopped till it had mangled his limbs in a muntic.r too shocking fin. description. When extricated trout his dreadful situation, some faint signs of stlil remained ;, but in two hours after Ice had been conveyed to the house of his agonized parents, he breathed his last. To desll•og Coferpillars.—A gardener at Glasgow has a mode of fiestioying caterpillars, which he dis covered he accident. A piece of woollen rig had been blown by the wind into a currant bush, and when taken out was found covered wit!' these leaf= devouring insects. He immediately placed pieces of woollen cloth in every bush in his garden, and found the next day that tha caterpillars had univer sally taken to them for shelter. It this way he destroys many thousands every morning. On Friday a female child, three years of age, fell out of is two-pair of stairs window in Cow-cross, and was taken up dreadfully bruisecl, but none of her bones were broken. She cried at the time to her mother to liirgive her, and that she would never do it :.gain. She was taken to the hospital in a cradle. She ran to the window to see sonic dancing do ,, s and the seat. being low, ~sbe fell out before, she Was umovered. VARA. Of . Nto evil. New liags.per ewt.
