WHICH OCCURRED IN /11l YEAR I:420. Under the above title has recently appeared a hn , Muurons satire, of which. the following is an extract : Scarce had the Sure o'er TAXLVID ris'n Emerging from its murky prison; Nearer had the Suv'n Ems s morning light Roll'd back the dusky folds of night : Than's cheerless rays, with faint attraction, Noxious vapours can'tl int' action ; Shapeless clouds, portending wrath, In hideous folds beset his path. Old Tyranny, with visage grim, Hypocrisy in holy trim, Which means, althoulh't the Gospel preaches. Axes, cannon halls, and leeches; Rueful Signs obseur'il the skies, and t'has'd each other to the horizon. Thus iironniun Slane reign set is, Each Tazlaider held up his chin, And thought. no doubt, 'twos errs odd Such things should come grace of God." • • • • • • Strong breezes soon the clouds dispell'd, The Tazianders again beheld Great Sluts' face once more laid hire, And gleaming through the nnthient air : But, what was their !nowise and grief, On b'holding their anointed chief, Beset at either cheek and thin With Fones and Fie AI'D anti Deadly S tYr Ready :o slide before his face. And blacken Taxiaiiii with disgrace All plainly saw was coining on That wonderful phenomenon Which pos'd the learned and the wise. ho thought, whate'er in earth or skies. ()retired, they must know all about it. — None but vulgar folks could doubt it ; On them the vulgar turned their back:, And laid aside their almanacks. The Planets now, with aspects evil, 11 if directed by the devil, In circles dense and stendy pee. Began t' obscure great S. 9t a' face. And darken every gracious function B. their horrible conjmis tiou ; Smiling with satanic gr in, To have the world wrapped op in sin. Home time before the tit nt was guar, All knew the issue coming on : Therefore, the wicked and the vile F 0111 3 .11 plans th' ununn to berii:e. Like thieves and sharpers here in London, Waiting until after sundow n, Brewing plans throuOtout the day. Go forth at night and seize their prey Or, like those datnes of easy virtue, Who, at every turning, court you, Breathing accents soft and luring, Lead their dupes to death or rein. • • • • • The Brigh►t9n Herald •ays, " We regret that the I mania for leaving the churches, be-ause the Queen is not prayed for, is spreading in all directi o ns I and we do trust that an immediate order from the Privy Coun cil will restore her Majesty's name to the Litur g y. The clergymen of the establishment are very unities- Stingy situated in this respect, acting, as many of them do, against their own feelings, as well as In opposition to the wishes of their parishioners." We are very happy in being enabled to state, that it is in agitation among several of the citizans of carlisle. to present a Requisition to the Mayor, for the purpose of calling a meeting of the inhabitants, to cougratulak our illustrious Queen on the triumph she has obtained over her relentless enemies—to petition the Ilonse of Commons to inquire into the circumstances connected with the 31ilan Commission ; and to address the King to dismiss his Ministers, who have brought disgrace upon the Crown and an indelible stain upon the country. Five old women, of Sandwich, very humble indi viduals, last Sunday sent the Queen a very fine fat pig. Her Majesty accepted it; and her answer throng), Lady Hamilton, is a very affectionate one. It has been matter of surprise that no public demon. stration of sentiment, except in the way of illumination has been made respecting the Queen by the inhabi tants of those respectable parishes within the liberties of Westminster, which comprehend the Strand and parts adjacent. This simpresion may, indeed, be well accounted for, in the Parish of St. Martin in the Fields, where the heads of the parish are such a personage as the Duke of Nortl►umberland, Sod the chief Church- Warden, such a man as silences St. Martin's bells on an evening of rejoicing fur her 3lajesty's triumph.— The silence of the parish of St. Mary le Strand will also not be wondered at, when the magnitude of So merset-House, and its influence are duly considered. Why supineness prevails in the parish of St. Clement Danes in which resides number of persons distinguished heretofore for their independence and public spirit, is altogether inexplicable. We are happy, however, to end, that in the parish of !.:t. Paul, Covent-garden, some appropriate means at length are taken by the housekeepers, to compensate for the long neglect. A meeting of the inhabitants is to be held this evening, to consider of the propriety of signing a Requisition to the Church-Wardens, to call an early meeting of the inhabitants of the parish, to vu'e an Address of congratulation to her Majesty, and also any other matters that may be submitted for their consideration, regarding the present crisis of National Affairs. An article is inserted in a foreign paper, under the head of Carlsruhe, Bth November, gising what is said • to be a copy of a letter from the Baron d'Ende to Mr. Wizard, our Queen's Solicitor, explaining more fully his reasons for refusing to come over to England. He repeats the pretence of his health, being very ill— being such as to require " his most serious cares ;" he then pretends to have discovered, its a speech of Mr. Brougham, something so very injurious to the memory of the late Grand Duke, his master, that " he would lose all esteem for himself, if he could lend himself (el je ponrois ore peeler) to a cause in which they bad dared to blacken so unjustly his late Highuess•s noble manner of acting ;" and he sums up with say ing, that at any rate the testimony be could give would nut be of that use to her Majesty which it is supposed. If that testimony could possibly have injured her, who imagines Baron d'Ende would have stayed away? •.• The fate of every Ticket and Share sold prior to Wstorgsnal Lasr, the 13th Nov. was finaq decided by the Drawing of THAT DAT. Those persons, there foto, who may have already purchased in the present Lottery, are recommended to enquire the fate of their Numbers, in order to exchange their small Prises for undrawn Tickets and Sham, and secure a chance for the Two £20,00t) Prizes and the other Capitals, all of which mast be drawn on Tuesday week. THE STATESMAN. THE QUEEN AT HAMMERSMITH CHURCH. The expectation of 'rein& the Quern, attracted crowds, both male and female, yesterday, to Hammer smith Church. Several persons placed themselves in the Church-yard, in °Met' to see through the windows. Hy eleven o'clock, the body of the church was quite filled. The Queen arrived about eleven o'clock, with Lady Anne Hamilton and Mr. W. Austin. Alderman Wood had arrived in his carriage some :Moors before. Her Majesty came in the Mate carriage, which she used in going to the House of Lords. On alighting from het carriage, she was received by the Churchwardens, and conducted into the body of the church through the vestry. Matting was placed over the flags. She was conducted to the Minister's pew, whirls was fitted up hi a neat stl le with crimson velvet, and an elegant chair covered with similar stun'. Mr. Alderman Wood, l.as!v Anne Hamilton, and Mr. Austin, sat not far distant from her Majesty, and seve ral of her suite attended. The galleries wrre crowded, and many were obliged to stand. The charity Children were very neatly dressed, and were stationed in galleries at each side of the organ ; and on her 3lajesty's entering the Cloarch, the whole audience stood up. Iler Majesty was dressed in a rich white satin dress, turban, and a white veil. The Rev. Mr. Leggett read the morning prayers. We are informed that a Requisition, signed by several inhabitants of the town, was sent to the Clergyman, requesting that her M;:jesty should be prayed for in ; the Church yesterday ; this, however, did not take The sermon was preached by the Rev. Mr. Atwood, in a wen• impressive manner. lie took his text from' the 9th Chapter of Jeremiah, and the 24th verse, as follows:—" But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he nnder•tandeth and hno►reth me, that I am the Lord, which exercise loving kindness, judgment, and righteousness in the earth : for in these things I de ht eaith the I ord. - The Rev. Mr. Atwood hating administered the Sa crament to himself, next administered it to the Queen, who after having joined in prayer, passed through the vestry-room, to her carriage which was at the Church door. Iler Majesty bowed frequently to the crowd which followed her carriage, with the usual popular cries to Brandenburg!: house. The mnment Mr. Craven received the letters of Lord Liverpool, he iinuiediately communicated their contents to her Majesty. Satiirday, Mr. Brougham and Mr. Denman waited upon her Majesty, to consul upon what further steps should be taken in this most momentous subject, when it was determined that her Majesty should again write to the Earl of Liverpool, urging, in still stronger terms, the demand which had bee■ made under her sanction. This letter was immediately ronveyel to the Earl of Liverpool by the How Keppel Crave.. liAittelbastst tisrrevessszte AT rue 4.ZAPII 0/ Noon I lillore.—stWe have already announced to our readers the arrival of satisfactory intelligence from the Veal Party of Settlers at the Cape of (loud Hope, and have now the further satisfaction of stating, that letters, dated " New Deal, 23d of August" last, have been received confirming in every respect the previous ac counts we have been favoured with the perusal of one of Aloe letters, which states " tbat the party are all urn, and have no doubt of doing well ; they have alreatlyie&ti.eir grazing grounds 2 bullocks and cows, haieltsown their bread corn, have cabbages, planted out dishes (of seed carried from Deal) fit to pull, p d beans up; • division of the party at tends so to/ishing, which employment produces them enough to keep the whole.

IS. POWNALL. falsely called CHOP LEY, against Cnost- Ll:T.—This was a suit brought by the wife against the husband fur nullity of marriage on the ground of mi nority, and want of consent. It was an undefended cause, the Counsel ha►ing called the attention of the Court to the most material points of the case, which will be found more amply detailed in the sentence of the Learned Judge. Sir Juits NicHoh said, this was a suit for nullity of marriage promoted by Ann Pownall against Juba Chorley, on the ground of minority. The libel pleaded the Marriage Act, the birth of the young a oman, and her marriage with John Chorley, out the 6th of Janu ary, Irtt►3, she being then a spinster and minor of the ige of seventeen or eighteen ; that her father was then living, and that his consent had not been obtained to this marriage. Upon this libel tire witnesses bad been examined, and among the rest the father and aunt of the young woman, and her first cousin. In terrogatories bad been addressed to them settled by coansel, suggesting the probability of the tither'. consent to the marriage by his subsequent conduct to wards the parties. At the bearing of the cause it was mach to he regretted that the husband did not appear by Counsel, and the Court on that account was honed '1 to proceed with the greatest circumspection and cue. C' k
