While we lee mete iii this cosinl it sacri ficing their nun reputatioo, their tenants property and comfort, and the liberty sold the morals of immy of their stmounding depenthmts, to the pi e•ervation of their byres end-plowman. what 14 nobler nntia•t does the r riot act (.f Mr. Coke afford, m standing tout!' the chalet 'on of j:t tire and homanity. It it high time It at a tom , lete recision should take place of these sangtounry law Not only have they been proved to be completely Mei ritual to re. strain poaching, but they have contribute , ' to engender habits of Idleness and theft, and almost eve y species of crime. Men who would 1111 e. have shrunk from Melt. have been led on to the commission of yr t store attecioor crimes, by first becoming poachers. We have some doubt whether Mr. Banker' Hill will sufficiently result the root of the 11.$0. 11111 that a perseverance in the present spirit and practice of the Genre law■ is pregnant with innell evikand oni gond, i. a conclusion fully warranted by tin- Salinity and rapt rumor. A Dublin paper says—" We understand his Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex intends to visit this country in the month of May nest We shall hail the arrival of the Royal Duke with na ordinary sa tisfaction : the lively interest which his Royal High ness has always felt in ameliorating the condition of the poor Irish residing in London, affords a strong proof of his regard for their native country. With the exception o! the Duke of Clarence,- no Prince of the Royal blood now living has ever,been in Ireland." We observe that the NottiMro Conntir4 have tnecceded in their application to have two xeisersi Gaol deaneries in the year, and that Mr. keine is appointed to preside as Juder. Norwich will now, therefore, 'be the °nig place in the Kingdom to oloirle this act of Justire is denied !

DREADIPOL CALAMITY DV Floc.—lt has seldom calk.' to our lot to record an accident of a more appalling naure than has occurred a' the villaee of Winterbiorne Stoke, 8 miles from Salisbury —au accident originating in carelessness and thought lessues , , and calming the sudden destruction by fireof no less than seven human beings! The fire broke out between one and two o'clock on Thursday moriting last, in a large house belon.ting to Mr. G. Kel low, which was occupied as two tenenteuts; in one end cif the house a shopkeeper and his fatuity resided; in the other two families, consisting of nine pour persons, seven of whom shocking to relate, were burnt to death. The fire was not discovered till the whole of the latter part of the building was enveloped in flames; and it appears that it was occasioned by Mary Adlem (one of the suf ferers) having, prey iously to going to bed, placed some ashes near to a bundle of heath, in a buttery not far from the fire-place. The names of the unfortunate sufferers were, Christian Adlein, aged 80 years; Mary Adieu], aged 40, and her daughter Eliza, aged 3 years: Jane Target, aged fij; Ann Davis, aged 2‘.2. and her infant • datthter Jane, aged 10 months; and Elizabeth Wilkins, aged 17 years. Janice Davis (the husband of Ann Davis) -escaped whit great difficulty, saving one of his children three years. This poor man in the fright of the mo tnent:leaped from the window to the ground; but re collecting the danger to which his wife and children were exposed, lie re-entered the house, and ascended itito the chamber; at that time the women of both apartnictits were running about in an agony of despair : • "lie caught the eldest child with his left hand, and with his right dragged the mother, clasping her infant to her bosom, down the staircase; but by Lome 10C3113 the mu thee became disengaged from his grasp, and was lost with s•er infant in she flames which sturontuled them. The father, bursting through the door which was on fire, again coached the outside with his child, but both were i ltvadfully burnt. The roof at this moment fel! in, bury. tot in the mass of fire, in addition to4he mother and her Wilmot, the four women aed the child who remained be hind. The family of the shopkeeper, occupying the other part tri the Hume, and Consisting of seven persons, fortunately escaped unhurt.

CORN-EXCHANGE, Monday, March tt, 1319. The supply of Wheat this morning from Kent and EllieN being large, and the demand for which very trilling, sales were affected with difficulty a reduction of Y per quarter on the finest qualities, whilst the inferior descrtptions were tende.ed on lower terms, but could not be disposed of. Barley is 2s. to 3s. cheaper, and only prime samples found buyers. Oats are full 15. per quarter lower than on this day week, and want off heavily a t that decline. In Beans and Peas scarce any thing doing, an prices nominal. CORN-EXCHANGE, WEDNESDAY, MARC/124. There being but few buyers at market, the Wheat trade w exceedingly -heavy, and none could be disposed of but prim qualities. Barley is also is. per quarter lower. and dull sale at that decline. "ID Oats, Peas, and Beans, there is no alteration. CORN EXCHANGE, FRIDAY, Marto, G. The effect of the scarcity of money upon the Corn Market w as clearly proved to-day. The supplies were not unusually heavy, but no sale could be effected without a considerable reduction. The best qualities, however, of all sorts of Corn sold better than inferior samples ; and the depression of Wheat was less rhea than that of all the other kinds of grain. To the recent com mercial embarrassments, and not to any fear of a glut iu the mar bet, must this temporary fall be ascribed.
