The store extended inquiries of Tone Committee this Sri. sin., have amply confirmed the opinion which a more limited investigation had led them to ferns two rare ago, upon the aeglect mad abuse of charitable fonds con. erected with education. They mint refer to the Appendie and the Tables, tar the very uniportaut desalts of this branch of the subject; hot they MUM add, that although hi many eases those large funds appear to have bees snisappleed through igottrauce, or mismanaged throng% carelenuen, pet that scum animates of abuse have presented themselves, of sae% a nature as would bate led times to recommend at an earlier period et the flessieso, the isatitation of proceedings for more promptly cleecitios enisappropeistions, both iu the plait-aloe capes, and by the fume of • salutary example. From the investigation, of the Commission shout to be bayed sutler the authority of an Act of Parliament, much advantage . may be expected; sad though it would sot heroine your Committee to anticipate the measures which the 'intone of the Legislature may adopt in ensue. quence of those inquiries, wish a view to Fermi& a speedy and cheaper remedy for the evil limo the ordinary tribunal. of the country afford, yet your Committee cannot avoid hoping, that the mere report and publication of the existing shows will have a materiel effect ise khaki/gibe parties con cerned tee correct them, sod that even the apprehension of the Inquiry about to be Maitland may in the unease time Frothier • similar effect. As the universities, rage schools, and charities with special visitor., are exempted hoot the juriadictioit of the Commissioners, your Committee have been occupied iu examining several of those institatioss ; the result cif their inquiries will he found is oho Appendix. It unqutstiousiily shows, that considerable onauthorked deviations have been made, in both glow and Winchester, from the original plans oldie founders that those deviation have heels dictated wee by a regard to the tittered' of the Fellows than of the scholars, who were the main **et of the foundations and of the ftiander't busty; and that although in souse re. peels they have proved beselicial upon the whole to the insti tutions, yet that they have been, by gradual encrosehnsents in former times,earried too far. Whiletherefore your Committee readily acquit the present Fellows of all blame in this respect, they entertain a confident expectation that they will seise the opportunity afforded by the inquiry, of doing themselves , booms, by correctiog the abuses that have crept in, as far as the real interest* of the establishments slay appear to re quire it. If too, there should exist similar errors in the Universities, which have sot been examined, your Commit tee willingly latter themselves that steps will be taken to correct them, by the wisdom and integrity of the highly re. erectable persons to whose has& the concerns of chow greet bodies are committed. Your Committee are fully persuaded, that many great neglects and abases exist in charities which have 'petal visitors; indeed it an bapparesthat the worst iustanee which they have met wish WSW to this class; and that no wish. tatorial power wan emmiseg, until a few &moths ago, al. though the malvemolisns had existed for many years. To this subject they therefore beg leave to request the speedy attention of Parliament. It further appears to your Committee, that as the Corn. mission about to be issued will he congaed to the invades'. tine of ablates, and as the information, la the parochial returns, is nut salSciently detailed respecting the state of education generally, a Commission should also be issued, either under an Act of Parliament, or by means of an Addivie to the Crowe, for the purpose of supplying this defect. In the course of their inquiries your Committee bare in. (ideology observed that charitable funds, contierted with eduestioa, are not alone liable to gnat abuses. Equel negligeoce and malversation appears to have prevailed is all other charities ; and although your Committee hare so as. thorny, by their instmetion to investigate the matter, and to report npon it, yet they lion kl deem themselves naafis( is their duty were they not is give this notice of so import ant • subject, ateideatally forced open their attention. Jung 3,1111 g. SINGULAR CAS F. About *verses ago a pose woman, wife of John !niec e now one of the farm servaaft of Mr. Church, of Mitchell, in the parish of Coniliertrees, Dumfriesshire, was seised with • swelling, accompanied with excruciating pain in her right thigh, immediately above the hoes iisist, for which she was attracted be the first medical practitioners in that part of the country ' and was, for • considerable lilac, an out. patient of theDonsfrisa Inirmary, but without &deputing... The dimmer increased, and every chaage of treatment sesmcil only to render it more inveterate. After enduring a life of torture fur upwards of roar years, and consulting suc cessively no fewer than silt or seven medical men, who all abandoned her case as hopeless, the poor woman was induced to apply in Mr. Thomas Radcliffe, fanner and innkeeper, in the neighbouring parish of Ruthwell, an ingenious man, whu minimises • kind of heerditasy claim to skill in the dis. eaves of the inferior animals. Mr. Radcliffe immediately saw in the disease something analogous to Cade. which ha had occasionally met with and cured among horse., and, with a laudable boldness, he determined to apply the rules of farriery to the hams., subject, with sou h soodilications as eirelini.tances might require. About a month after the case felt hider his management, several long white worms made their appearance in the mire, which, we are assured, 'hewed uniquivocal symptoms of life, and were at almoid every dressilig, brought away on the surface of the plaister. The largest of them was about en iota and a half lung, and alit quite MO thick as • cotton thread. They were apparently of a sinewy substance, their uniform colour a dull white, incepting one or two very small blackish spots in the head. Ad goose as the worms were removed the wound began rapid.

The Select Committee appointed to logithe Into and Mate the leseorne and Expenditure of the United Kingdom, for the Year ended the 9th of January, INII ; and also to eon. *Oder and state the probable Income sa,l Expenditure foe far as the same can now be estimated) for the Years ending the bib of 'armory, I*l9, sod the sth of loons. y, HIM respectively, and to repot the same, together with their ohs,' ea lions the►eupon, lime 10 time, to the Howse; mulatto le ruusider chat farther measures niay be adopted fur the relief of the country from say part of the said Es proditore, *Morel detriment to the public interest... Having laid before the House in their Fourth Repo& presented in the last Session, a view of the public income and expenditure fur the year ended the Sib January, 1817, distiognished under the prine+ml heads; and likewise, eis Estimate of the probable income end expenditure for the year 1817 and 1818; and having since had under their consideration the Accounts presented iu the present Session, relating to the actual receipt and expen diture of the year 1817 ; proceed to lay before the Muse the result of these documents with reference to their Estimate of last year. in order that the !louse may thereby be enabled to perceive bow far the opinions of the Committee upon this very im portant subject have beers justified hitherto by the event, end to judge in whet degree the expectations ' which they expressed its their Report above re ferred to, may, at the present period, appear likely to be ultitnetely realised. lu proceeding to this examination sod comps. risen, your Committee wish to call to the recol lection of the Home the difficulties which they experienced, : s they stated in that Report, in forming the Estimate required upon the actual state of the revenue, as exhibited in the ac counts of the latest year then before them, owing to the very peculiar circuinstatires by which the produce of that year (18161 bad been impaired; several of which, even at the time when your Committee were considering the subject, were still in operation. It was for thia purpose deemed ex pedient to have recourse to the accounts of the three latest antecedent years not affected by these cer cumPtatices, viz. 1812, 1813, and 1814 ; the ave. rage of which three years, when divested of all aug meutations and dimmutions occasioned by alter ations iu the rate of duties, was found to correspond very nearly with the average of the two years 1915 and 1816, taken upon the same principle; the year 1813 having yielded a very large, and the year 1816, a proportionably reduced. produce--and your Committee further remind the House, that after having assumed those averages as a fair basis fur their Estimate, and hati..g thereby arrived at the resi,:t which they presented to the House, they expressed distinctly their 1 , wish to be clearly understood as not stating a confident opinion, that the Estimate thus fratned would be rea. lised within the (then) present year. For though they saw, 011 the one hand, reason to expect that the receipts of the Exchequer might (when the charge which they anticipated took place) he swelled, in the first instance, somewhat beyond the actual increase of consumption, by the replenish ment, in the hands of the dealers, of the average stocks of their respective trades (which storks, they had reason to believe, had been greatly reduced); yet, considering how much of the year most have elapsed before tie relief to be expected from the ensuing harvest could he felt, together with other eircunistences which might operate to delay the ex pected improvement, they deemed it safer to pre sent a less sanguine view, and to assume, that even with the uid of the arrears of the Property Tax, to the Prnount of 2,800,000 f. the average receipts of the (then) present and next ensuing years might not exceed the limits of their Estimate." Your Committee having thus referred to the opinions which they entertained last year. and to the principal considerations whereby the views which they then took of the subject were influenced, are now eliabltd to state, that the progress of the re venue up to the present time, has justified those views, and veinal ample meant for anticipating, within the curreut nur, the fulfilment of their ex pectation.. It will be apparent, indeed, from the following comparative statements, that the Committee were fully warranted, as well in the doubt. which they entertained with respect to an immediate improve ment of tile revenue, as in the confident hope which they expressed of its accelerated return to that state (at least) of productiveness from which it had suddenly declined, whenever the peculiar causes which had occasioned the decline should have ceased to operate. Your Committee now proceed to skew - teal produce of the - e in the ended also fill the ditch.; sod when these obstacles are removed, the rear advance over their bodies, ren dering it impossible for any part of thu►. before in retreat, if rvrg go well inclined; they ore thus left no alternative between death and victory; the liv ing passing with perfect indifference over the suf focated biiilles of their companions, the jmiirmy is pursued without troy intermission.

The unchangeable steadiness with which this singu lar tribe act in concert dining their irruption, seems to imply a regular direction, rather than its being the mere effect of instinct. ‘Vbenever a country is condemned to the above terrible visitation, nothing can exceed the alarm created amongst the inhabitants, awl with good reason, for woe to the district over which they pass !

After taking • historical and geographic'sl view of this country, M. Paulinti passes to its various pros ductious A happy combination of warmth nod Iminidity gives • great degree both of vigour and utaetuti crnce to the vegetable proslnctions of Ilsrls try. Although the lower class subsist ionic:pally on bar ley, yet wheat and Indian corn are extremely rhos,- dant. There is also a species of chick-peas, which is rooked in a pan. and thus forms an important article of consumption at ttttt igst the people. 'rite prickly peur rebounds all over this mildly, mill what it wants ia pictoresqlie beauty. is made tip by its utility; for, while the tree forms an impenetrable hedge, the fruit is excessively nutritive rod whole some. Vines grow to a prodigious height, mad passing naturally from one tree to another, form beautiful arbours: their size is equally remark .We, being sometimes as large at the root as a tolerably proportioned olive-tree. The latter is els° a very favourite production of isorthern Africa ; aoJ be side, the immense quantity of trees, wild and cul tivated, the Algerine territory produces a small thorny tree, which bears a fruit equal in size and flavour to the large olive of Spain. Their pomegra nates sire at least three timeslarger than those of Ita ly, and the pumkins grow to an enormous magi& tude. In addition to all those fruits c tttttt 11011 to Europe, the oranges and figs of this cou n try are of the most exquisite flavour ; the cliesnut-tire does not grow to a very large site in Barbary. hut the nut, though small, is very meet. The oaks are in some plaices, particularly on the sea.coest, of an immense size, and extremely lofty ; of there, the queroes hallota. of naturalists, also abounds, its acorns being very nourishing to several ani mals, and not unlike the wild cliesnut. This im portant tree, so well known its Slant), would also be a great requisition to Italy, into which it has not hitherto been introduced. Amongst different spe cies of the Cypress, there is one writ iii the vicinity of Algiers, rental !sable for its unusual loftiness and remidical form ; the slims'd and mulberry tree are also found in great plenty. The indigo fern glauca yields a valuable (lye ; and there is a highly esteemed medicinal plant found in this pert of Africa, vulgarly called cineraria, which is con sidered by the natives es a sovereign remedy in several diseases. Another herb, the realm, fur nishes the inhabitants with the celebrated juice with which their nails are tinged. Amongst bo tanical plants is the scilla tnaritinta, the but bust; ratlicata, and drawl palm, which yields an exceedingly small date, alro the saccharnin celex dricuin and agroslis pungens. In the more arid wallies are to be found the resedn odoratu, erica arhorea, and superb cartes, all of which Htfard ex cellent pasture for lambs, while they perfume the air with, grateful odours ; also the laurel rose, which cheers atid vivifies the country, when all other flowers are dried up by autumnal heat. The hills are covered with thyme and rosemary, which at once purify the atmosphere, and supply in nosily places the deficiencies of fuel. 'I he tra veller's sight is also continually regaled with extensive tracts thickly planted with roses of every lire, for the distillation of the famous es sence or otto of roses, so well known in Europe. This fine climate has at all times been highly favourable to the culture of sugar cane; that of Solimae bring considered the largest and most prolific of any in the world. Indeed this plant is thought by massy to be indigenous to Barbary, from whence, together with Sicily, it was originally sup plied to the West India islands. But the must celebrated tree in Africa is the lulus, equally re nowned by poets and naturalist's. The Palau is also one of the greatest blessings to this favoured land. We rather think that M. l'as isanti compiles too much in this part of his work, describing the horses, metes, asses, camels, &c. of Barbary; these, with their habits, are suffici ently known to every reader. Of the reptile and insect tribes, though not much snore novel, there is a curious account, from the close of which, we copy a part. 'flie natives frequently amuse themselves by a curious kind of warfare, which is created by shut ting up a scorpion and a rat together in a close cage, when a terrible contest ensues. I have seen this continue sometimes for above an hour : it gene rally ends by the death of the scorpion ; but in a little time after the rat begins to swell, and, in violent convulsion, soon sharer the fate of his van quished enemy. It is also a favourite diversion with the Moors, to surround one of these reptiles with a circle of straw, to-which fire is applied ; after mak ing several attempts to pass the Hawes, it turns on itself, and thus becomes its own executimiet.. The most destructive part of the insect tribe, and which is justly considered as the greatest scourge in Africa, remains to be noticed : this is the fills eh• Vict Nn ; apin,uttt dto noyal Vu alt Rno;.•, A —dated Ilidy 7, 711 E I.,nn Oisii.l,y 11.1.1 to L.
