calamity he would wander on, seeing in the future nothing for hope, and iu the past nothing but Ms appointment—You could not recognise in him the same creature, who but an hour preceding had • set the table in a roar'—his gibes, his meriment, his flashes of wit were all extinguished. He had a favourite little slaughter, who was a sort of musical Prodigy. She had died it the age of twelve. and he had her buried in the mirth of a smell grovejust adjoining this garden. A little rustic memorial was raised over her, and often sod often have 1 seen him, the tears • chasing each other' down his cheeks, -point to his daughter's monument, and • wish to be With her and at rest.' Such at thoes was the mini before whtwe very look not merely gni. env but sadness has oftewvanished—who has given birth to more etijoyMent, and uttered more wit, than, perhaps, any of his cotemporisries in any cnim try—.who had in him materiels for social happiliess, such as we cannot hojw phi to see combined in any one; and whose death has cast, I fear, a per manent eclipse upon the "'festivities of his circle. Yet even these thelattcholfhours were not without their moral. They proved the nothingness of this world's gifts—the worse than inutility of this world's attainments—they forced the mind into involun tary reflection—they ',hewed a feHow-creartue en riches/ with the finest natural endowments, having acqiiited the most extensive reputation, without a pecuniaryirant or a professional rival; yet Weighed down with a constitutional depression that 14ft the itoorest wealthy, and the humblest happy in the compnriiion. Nor were they without a krod of mournful interest—be spoke as under such csocum stances no human being but himself 'could hare Ipoken—his mind was so very strangely coats toted—such an odd medley of the and the humorous—now soaring into regions df light `and sublimity for illustrations, and now burrowing under ground for such ihdacrous and el t i ttt steal examples—drawing the most Strange inferences 'from cause* so remote, and accompanied at tunes wills gestures so comic, that the smile and the star iiften irresistibly suet during the recital. Perhaps, after one of thole scenes of misery, when he had walked himself tired, and 'wept himself tearless, ire Would again return into the house, where the pk. lure of some friend, or the contingency of some ac cident, recalling an 'early or festive association, would hurry him into the very extreme of cheerful- IleA% !

Ills .Excellency has taken leave of his Majesty ; he sets .ff this night for The Allied Sovereigns will hold their ronferences it the hall of the Town-house, where the famous Treaty of Peace, known under the name of Treaty df Aix-la-Chapelle, was concluded and Biped. The Kiug of Prussia has lately confirmed the rot corttlemuatio►r to de►th in the Provinces of the Rhine, and etecution by the hatchet, pronounced against a subaltern of f icer who had assassinated his comrade at Luxembourg. The Emperor of Komi' wishes to observe the strictest incognito in his journey through Germany, for the purpose of escaping the ceremonies and fetes which would be caused by his presence. A carriage, of which the box, the body, the harness, and the horses, are white, has excited, for some days, the curiosity of the Parisians. The coachman and footmen wear white bat•, and are dressed in white liveries. Inside is a child, aged about 10 years, dressed in white, as is also a retinae servant who .oecompsnies him. A Journal has an nounced this fact, simple in itself, and infinitely respectable in its motive; but has exploineditin a very obscure manner, saying, that according to all the child was devoted to white. On this explanation, two Journals, affecting ignorance, although well knowing the meauit►g of the phrase, decutelo ridicule the first Journal that announced the fact, and exciaim at the revival of the wicient super stitions. Fur ourselves, we are very happy to explai or. at the riik of intoning the ana►hema of the scoffers, that a child devoted to white, means a child placed by its parents wader the protection of the Virgin.

The Duke of RICHELIEU, having held a colifertuce on Friday with the KING, left Paris on the evening of the same day for Aix-la-Chapelle. The Emperor of Russt♦ will. in his journey through Germany, observe a strict ineognito.--The Duchess of BERRY is recovering rapidly from the effects of her confinement. The Five per Cents. are 75 f. We endeavoured to shew in our last publication, that the Ministerial Papers merely soeght to de. crive the public, or were themselves deceived, in awertiwg that the CHANCELLOR of the EXURB-. QUER would not require during the ensuing year to raise money by loan, or by any financial scheme embracing the operation of funding. We shewed by arithmetical statements that the probable ex penditure of the year would amount to upwards of sixty-three millions, a sum exceeding the probable revenue by something about nine millions—titat of 1 1 these nine millions, from four to five might possi bly revisit] in the Treasury, from the Ways and j Means of the present year, to be rendered available towards meeting the Supply of the next—and that in the most flattering and favourable view of the 'case, the CuaNcEtt.oa or the EXCHEQUER should of necessity have recourse to some expedient for raising a sun► nearly equal. flow this sum of money can be raised. without borrowing in some shape, we are at a loss to discover ; we are there fore tempted to believe, that should the revenue fall short of the wanguine hopes entertained by Minis ters and their party, it is intended to attack the Sinking Fund, and appropriate the last hope of the nation to support the present extravagance of an inconsiderate Ministry. By this means the promise of the CilancES.Loß of the Excise •Qusit would be realised, and the boast of the Treasury saved by the suliterftage. Should Par liament, however, prove itself so regardless of thetdisties•es or the people as to sanction a conti pumice, for another year, of the present military and civil establishments. and thereby cause an excess in the expenditure over the income, we shall slot say that a recourse to the Siiikitig Fund would I not be far preferable, as a means of meeting the Sapplp, than ally expedient, however feasible, of burrowing money at intere►t. Some doubts, we understand, are entertained in the 'military circles, respecting the immediate die handing of 25.000 men immediately on their return from the frontiers of France. it is argued, that uhtho►rbh the Allied 'Sovereigns. iii deference to the wishes of the Cabinet of the 'clioilleries, may con sent to withdrew their respective contingents form tog the Army of Occupation. it would be impolitic to (haploid them immediately, and trust to .chance for the security of the Buorliou throne and the tranquillity orEurope. Such, we are privately as sured, are the sentiments entertained by the Ultra-Royalist party, sanctioned by the apprelia lion of cirlais members of the Royal Family ; and experieeett ilias taught us how very consonant they must be pre the prevailing opinions of the British Government. The Ministers sill also work nut an *eircuse'ror supporting the present home establish -raent, from the late discontents that unfortu nately appeared among a large body of the working manufacturers of the kingdom ; and although in their rise, progress, and termination (for not withstanding a few late disturbances, we consider "them as virtually terminated), no feeling was mini fisted by the people other than a determination to exact higher wages from their emplciyers, we have no doubt they will be attributed by Lord SIOHOUTH and Mr. Cl/MHO solely to a seditious and jacobinical purpose. An excuse equally weak, and assertions equally devoid of fottidation.deprived us last year of our Constitution; and although in the next year Ministers might not deem it prudent to repeat the experiment, Ave can safely venture to predict that they will obstinately resist every at tempt to reduce the numbers of the standing army, and appeal to the late proceedings at Manchester. Stockport, ■nd other places, for the justification of their conduct. Should such an appeal unfortu nately prove successful, what will then become of the CHANCELLOR of the EXCUEQUER'S promise, and the premature boast of the Treasury Journals? Among the Perliententary Papers printed since the close of last Session, is the Report of the Lords' Committees on the Poor Laos in the Session of 1817, with► the Minutes of Evidence annexed. The hitter present a deplorable picture of the in crease of pauperism of late years, ■nd advance in the poor rates throughout the manufacturing dis tricts generally, and the agricultural in numerous instances. In the 'pariah of St. Mary Magdalen, Bermondsey, the number of poor in their house in 1814, was 407; in 1817, it was 600, besides 100 children, maintained out at nurse. In the year 1790, their poor rate was 3s. 6d. in the pound on the nominal rack-rent; iu 1817, 7s. on the full rack-rent. In Manchester, the average number of poor in the house throughout the years 1796.7, was 320; throughout 1816.7, 526. In the formei yeat the rates amounted to 16,9411. Iss. Op.; in that ending Easter 1816, to 47,8901.; and in that end ing Easter 1817, 65,9121. In many places the rates have been doubled within a few years. It was stated before the Committee, that, in parts of Glamorgan and Monmouthshire, the assessment was 20$. in the pound; that in the parish of Sutton ' Ashfield, about ten miles from Nottingham, they in many instances very far exceeded the rents; and that in Midhurst, in 1816, the rates collected were at 255. in the pound, and amounted to 2,006/. 185.3 d. while in 1803 they amounted to but 7761. 10s. 3d. Theft are but a few out of a multitude of similar cases—great part of so alarming a change is unques tionably to be traced to the operation of tempo- rary causes ; but we apprehend a deeper oue lurks beneath, and it is a conviction forced upon the mind by almost every page of the evidence before us, that much of the pressure on the 'industrious part of the community was pro duced by a spirit of indolence, and the want of proper exertion on the part of those applying for and receiving charitable relief—that • life of idle ness in a poor-house possessed too many attractions for the majority of its inmates—and that among the labouring classes a rapid decline was taking place in that feeling of laudable pride and honest independence which in times past led Englishmen of every denomination to submit to any personal privation rather than become a burden to their neighbours, and which made it their bout that they had kept out of • work-house all their life. This decay of a principle so essential to any well constituted society, is attributable to various causes : to the example and countenance afforded by numbers really distressed, whom the sudden revul sion in the circumstances of the country, and the want of employment arising from the suspension or destruction of different branches of manufacture rendered inevitably dependent on the benevolent— to the relaxation in morals generally, occasioned by theiocre•se of public-houses, and the impossibility of the labourer and mechanic being supplied with beer or porter, so generally considered indispen sable to them, without recourse to such houses, the excessive war duties on malt putting it out of the power of verses in low circumstances to brew for their own uses. formerly—but, above all, as we Conceive, to a 'too easy and negligent system of management by those to whom the administration of the poor laws was intrust. ed, relief was sometimes granted to the unde serving without due investigation, or from mistaken notions of humanity, and sometimes awarded by a rale much too 'general and perma nent, and en a scale too liberal. Thus in many perishes u regulation has been laid down that every working man. with a certain Tamily, should have either from his own earnings, or the parish rates, half-a-crown a head weekly for each member, sod that whatever deficiency there was in the fanner should be supplied from the latter. This was obviausly taking away all motive fur exertion or industry. another parish it was the custom i►► a similar case to calculate tl►e mat. s e arnings always at ills. a week, and to contribute II 1. 1 11 1 1: I I'l I 1: 'Francois Derau.r, his father, aged 30, resident it Chat'llon, convicted of the crime of premeditated mut-rte.', committed on the night of the 4th or sth JUtte, (819, on the person of PierretreChapuys, wife of the said Jean Devalue.

Every thing is now fixed for the journey of the King of the Two Sicilies to Milne. His Majesty will be accuinpionivd by the Duchess Forids, the Duke d'keroti, the Prince de Kuffano, General hliuutolo, and s e veral other persons of distinction. The departure of the King will bike place in Octo ber. The process of the Abbis Natoli Ricci and Me nes•cci constantly occupies public attention in this city, the process is extending to great length. The Defendants are accused of having fabricated • great number of 'Papal Revcripts, some of which they have sent to foreigners, and with having delivered a siniaiber of dispensations, Crosses of Malts, secula 11VItiOnS of religions personl, and pensions. We are °sawed that the robberies are re-com menced 'in the mountains. TH E BRITI S 11 PRES S. ..4 6 (% I %•\, the remainder tt the above rate, though they might have amounted to eg.. anti without 'biting Ira wife's earnings into the account, which Might have been N.er ss. To Stich au extravagaut•pitcb had this false liberality been carried:that one 'gentleman stated before the Committee, lie had never in any instance deemed it hos duty to compel a pauper to sell his furniture and &rot:before grunting him relief—but that he has been compelled to sign a warrant of distress for the see of both, against a mats accustomed to pay "rates, but disabled from doing so by the want 4 employment or the pressure of cholar6—'this putting the pauper relieved in Is much better condition than the pauper who had till then struggled to cototribetP. In addition to the fundamental alterations in the raw of 'settlement, various local remedies fiar these evils hare been devised. The appointment of a permanent overseer, with a regular salary, thus en abled to devote his undivided time and attention to the business of his office ; the establishment of common concerns for the employment in tillage, or manktfacttires of men unable to procure work other wise; the erection of provident societies, or saving banks, to secure the overplus of the necessary fruits of industry for the day of age or sickness—all these, especially tbe'finit and last, are no doubt highly useful and beneficial. But the true and radical remedy is to effect an improvement in the senti ments and habits Of the great body of the people by education. The Report of the Committee of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland, with the ex tracts from the evidence of Sir J. B. RIDDELL, M.P. which we published yesterday, are well worthy the attention of these who would legislate wisely for the poor of England. From these it appears that every native of Scotland has access to the means of education for his children, though himself unable to bear the expense attending it ; that (may we not say in consequence ?) paupers are so limited, that the voluntary contributions of the people are in almost all cases amply sufficient for their assistance end support; and that in the few instances wherein compulsory assessment has been had recourse to, Nu wants of the poor, wed the extent of t►he assesv meats, /lave gradually and progressively increased. Let the poor be generally educated. Thus will they - .esquire habits of regularity, exertion, and economy ; a principle of justice and honesty wifl animate them to labour for their own subsistence. a spirit df honourable ambition will stimulate them to press up into the ranks of life, instead of meanly sinking ender idleness or despair, cramping and benumbing the efforts of their fellow-men. A private letter from Paris says, some appre hension, are entertained for the Duc de Boy Krum : he is advanced in life, and, I am informed, in such a state of lethargy, that his Highness cannot keep his eyes open." The Courier seeks to revive the old hoax of " claw me and I'll claw you" with the Morning Chronicle, but the latter appears ssliatued Of this hacknied trick for catching notoriety. From Christiana there is a report of a More in timate union being intended between the Courts of Sweden and Demnark, and that the King of SWE DEN and the PRINCE ROYAL were about to take a journey to Copenhagen. We are told that an agent from Copenhagen direct is arrived in this city, for the purchase of bombasines. Our manufacture, it appears is now very much worn in Sweden.—/Norwich Pl:per./ Extract of • letter from the Agent to Lloyd's at Cadiz, dated the Ist September :—" A severe gale from the East was experienced here on the :18111 ult. which lasted the whole of that night and the greater part of the following day. The follow ing vessels sustained damage :—The Alexander, thulium, from Liverpool to Messina, which had sprung a leek and put in here, must discharge her cargo and repair; the Kitty, of Waterford, Duo- GAN, master, drove ashore, and lost an anchor nod cable; the Samuel, La LACIIUER. of Guernsey, lost an anchor and cable ; the Insolante, alias Le Perta, of Malta, LAFFORTE, master, driven oh shore, and 'knocked her keel off, and expected to go to pieces; the Spanish brigs Santa Joze, alias Es peranza, and Alamo Felepena, were driven on shore and went to pieces; and some other vessels lost an chors and cables." Private letters have been received from the Dis covery Ships under Captain Ross, dated Ist Au gust, in lat. ell. 48. N. long. 61. 30. W. They state that the ice was clearing away, and that their prospect dr success was improving. The most ex traordinary phenomenon of the ♦ariation of the coin pass had gone on increasing; it was 88. la. on the ice ; we say on the ice, for on board ship, owing to some peculiar influence not yet ascertained, it was much more. The former letters, of which we have already given extracts, mention that on board ship the variation was at one time 93 degree., that is, the needle pointed, instead of worth, to the southward of Ices,. This difference between the real variation and an apparent variation on board ship was first observed by Captain FLINDERS, but it was Supposed to be an aecitlet.tal peculiarity in his ship : it is now dear that it belongs to all ships, and varies in all, ■nrl there would be little doubt that it should be attributed to the influence of the iron about the vessel, except for a curious fart which we understood has been ascertained, namely, that the compasses called insulated compasses, which are placed in boxes of iron, and which art uninfluenced by 'steroid iron, when brought hear to them, are effected by the ship-variation in the same degree us the common compasses. 'fins, is stow called the deviation, has been found to be much greater as the experiments go north ward, This is accounted for from the circumstance of the dip of the needle diminishing what is usually called its polarity, and allowing it therefore to be more easily affected by the local **affluence of the ship. \\~ A A t ' • % 11 : 41 t= l :1154,>.0- A• , kr, .1 I L GA ,' •• 40 -). •1110 ,:): x:N) tz - per lit ••• TASIIIONAIII E MOUE 'Am.
