Thr conduct of the Committee appeared to give universalsatisfattiou. _ .. The Report was then ortFered to be printed, and taken into further consideration on the 21st. THE Anmr. GRAND REVIEW OF CAVALRY. The grand review of cavalry. Whiii;wasor:ll..reil by the Commander-in-Chief, took place yesterday morning on Hounslow fleath. It being announced by a general order that the reyiew would begin at eleven o'clock, the Heath was crowded long before that hour with a vast concourse of spectators. About ten o'clock an immense number of carriages of all descriptions and horsemen arrived, and shortly after the numerous and splendid equipages of the nobility and gentry remelted the ground, and took their stations in the stand assigned for them. _ The assemblage of fashionable, beautiful, and elegantly dressed women was immense, and the spectacle altogether was grand and impoAng. The Cavalry review:A consisted of two Brigades and a Brigade of Royal horse Artillery. The Brigade of Cuirassiers, under the command of Col. the Hon. H. B. Lygon, consisted of the Ist and 2d regiments of Life Guards, and the Royal R. invent of Horse Guards. The brigade of Light Dragoons, under the command of Lord Charles 31aimers, was composed of the 3d (King's own); the 7th (Quten's own) Hussars; and the 15th (King's) Hussars. The Brigade of Royal hone Artillery, under the com mand of Lieutenant-Colonel Sir Augustus Fraser, K.C.B. consisted of three troops. The whole was tarsier the command of Major-General Lord R. E. H. Somerset, K.C.B. At eleven o'clock F ield-Marshal his Royal Highness the' Commander-In-Chief, accompanied by Fteld-Nlarshal the Duke of Wellington, Field-Marshal his Royal Highness the Duke of Glouiester, Field-Marshal his Royal High ness Prince Leopold. General the Marquis of .Inglesca, General the Earl of Harrington, General Sir Harry Calvert, Lieutenant-General Lord Beresford, Lieutenant-General the Marquis of Conyngbam. Lieutenant-General Sir Ml grove Turner, Lieutenant-General Sir J. Macleod, Major- General Sir Herbert Taylor, Major-General Sir J. W. Gordon, the Quarter-Master-General, Major-General Sir Henry Torrens, the Adjutant-General, and attended by a very numerous Staff; came upon the ground, and was re ceived in a most brilliant style, with the accustomed mili tary honours. The Comtnander-in-Chief, followed by a grand military cortege, tL•en rode down the line on a most beautiful charger, and returned by the rear,to his station, opposite the centre of the line. The brigades then passed in parade by half squadrons, tiled past, cantered past, and subsequently formed in con tigllCOM columns of march. 310VE3IENTS AND ATTACKS. The division on its march, descried an enemy on its flank, and took a position in two lines to attack. 2. The Light Brigade attacked, supported by the Cui rassiers and guns. The defeated enemy were pursued and cannonaded. 3. The division retired to resume its march, but the ene my re-appearing and threatening the left flank, that flank was re-faced, and ultimately thrown back. 4. The Cuirassiers attacked, supported by the artillery and the light brigade in second line. S. The division again retired on its line of march, when an alann of an enemy being given on its right flank, that flank was thrown back. 6. The Cuirassier brigade attacked by cchellon of regi ments from the kft, supported by the light brigade in line, and the artillery. 7. The division retired, but on its retreat the enemy shewed a hod , / of cavalry on the left ; that flank was thrown back, and a division for attack was taken. S. The division advanced, but the cavalry• of the enemy having unmasked a body of infantry behind its centre, a new disposition was made. 9. The division moved on to attack, halted, and detached pursuers. . . . . 10. The pursuers were recalled, and the light brigade retired into second line. 11. The division formed, and advanced in parade order, and gave the general salute. Thus terminated this brilliant military spectacle; bril liant we may truly call it, notwithstanding the unpropi tious state of the weather, the rain descending during the %hole of the evolutions. We never witnessed movements mere admirably performed, and attacks more efficiently executed. The whole scene was indescribably grand and imposing. His Royal highness the Commander-in-chief frequently expressed to the General Officers around him his unquali fit d approbation of the matueuvres of the brigades. The Royal Duke retired with the superb eavalcade k Nghly gratified and delighted. The tith Husrats, under the command of Colonel Wes tenra, misted byone squadron of the 2tl 'Magoon Guards, and by detachments from the RAing Establishment, kept the ground. A 11}:AUTIFUL ARABlAN.—Lieutenant Parker, of the I.oitc.l States navy, who arrived a few days since in the tonstitution, brought with him from the Mediterranean a full-blooded ,lrabian colt, which he obtained at Tripoli, as a present for General lktcr,ardus, of this city. He is the handsomest animal of the kind we have ever seen, aged twenty-two months, fourteen hands high, proportions per fect, body of a mouse eJlour, legs black, star in his fore head, hair soft and glossy as silk, hoofs small and semi far atsparatt. lie is extremely docile and playful, the sailors ttaving• taught him on his passage to shake hands with them. Immediately after he was landed at Brooklyn, a gentleman offered 500 dollars for him, which was of course tefused, as he was intended as a present.

On Monday last the annual festive meeting of the free men of Ipswich in the yellow interest was held at the Old Assembly Rooms in that town, to celebrate the return of Messrs.

EGGS AND POTATOLS.—The Scotch method of pre serving eggs, by dipping them in boiling water, which de stroys the living principle, !s too well known to need farther notice. The preservation of potatoes, by similar treatment, is also a valuable and useful discovery. Large quantities may be cured at once, by putting them into a basket as large as the vessel containing the boiling water will admit, and then just dipping them a minute or two at the utmost. The germ, which is so near the skin, is thus " killed," without injuring the potatue. Its this way s:veral tons might be cured in a few hours. They should then be dried in a warm oven, and laid up in sacks or casks, secure from frost, in a dry place. Another method of pre serving this valuable root first to peel them, then to grate them down to a pulp, which is put into coarse cloths, and the water squeezed out by putting them into a com mon press. by which means they arc formed into flat cakes. —Medico/ Arieirer.

TO THE AGENTS OF Hl4 GRACE THE DLE OF uevrouii.- GEN TlSMFN—Undistaniling that a considerable part of the princely revenue of his G. , lice the Duke of Bedford arises from the rtatieiof l'oveuccarden market and its neighbourhood, I take the liberty of calling your attention to what may be considered one of the greatest nuisances that can be met with in this populous city—l mean the state in trhich the refuse rep-taldes ate left in the Covent • garden market, and more especially during t►e whole of every Sunday. Such a neglect reflects disgrace on those who have the power of preventing it: the efloct of it must be highly prejudicial to the health riot only of those who may have occasion to pass the place, but more particularly to those whose habitations surround such a sink of oft e n. sive putridity. Last Sunday the whole splice of the market was strewed over with the wasting leaves of different vege tables in a high state of putrescent decay; these, with the divers pools of stagnant water which the rain had sup plied, and the heat of the weather, produced a most offen sive and pernicious effluvia, powerful enough to engender an epidemic disease. In most large towns, I have observed that the refuse matter of the markets has been seated away immediately after the market is closed at night, and conveyed to proper places. In Liverpool, where the new enclosed market co vers a space equal to the area of the vegetable market of Covent-garden, all the refuse of the meat, fish, and vege table markets is removed, and the place swept and venti lated, in an hour. In Manchester, in Edinburgh, and in Glasgow, although the latter cities are not usually cited u patterns of cleanliness, the greatest care and despatch are used to remove the offal of the markets. _ _ _ Another powerful reason why this offensive matter should be removed from Covent-garden market frequently is, that the fruit and vegetables neeesstrily kept iu shops in the market, for which I bear high testis are paid, must be lia ble to rapid decay, tram bag etper s d i nch." a fold and pestilential congregation of vapours as that by which they are surrounded, and thus a serious loss must be suf fered by the tenants of those shops and warehouses. As far as the public are concerned, such a want of atten tion to necessary cleanliness in a populous neighbourhood is highly culpable, and if not attended to by those whose duty it is to abate or remove such a nuisance, should be come an object of notice to the Police. 1 am Gentlemen, &c. Tavistock :love', July 7, 1324. VIATOR. CATHOLIC CHAPEL AT RICHMOND. On Tuesday the czromony of opening a newly erected Chapel, dedicated to the service of the Roman Catholic Religion, took place at Richmond, Surrey. There is a considerable number of Catholics resident in and about Richmond, and heretofore there has been no place of public worship for their use. The want of it of course was much felt, and Miss Doughty, an elderly lady, whose name we believe stands high in the list of the pious and charitable of this country, came to the deternimation of causing the present elegant edifid to be erected at her own sale expense. The Chapel is of an oblong form, with a small tower of stone at one extremity. supported by pillars, and surmounted with a richly gilded cross. The interior is at once neat and elegant. There is ornament sufficient without the 'gaudiness of decoration which is generally to be found in the Catholic places of worship. The ceiling is a vaulted one, composed of woad, divided into panels, and painted a pale lilac. The walls are of the same colour, the cornices lightly touched with gilding, and round the top runs a rich scroll of gold and French white. The altar has a very imposing appearance. There is a pedestal of marble, upon which is placed the plate used in the service, and above which is elevated a golden cross. Immediately behind, and at a considerable elevation, is a superb painting on glass, the subject being the appearance of the Angel of God to the Shepherds, with the joyful in telligence of the birth of the Saviour. The execution of this fine piece is highly creditable to the talents of the art ' ist : we were informed that it was painted by the late Mr. Muss, and that it was the last of his works. At the oppo site end from the altar is the choir, which is of necessity small, but extremely neat, and corresponding in tasteful ness of decoration with the rest of the interior. The cere mony of consecration took place on Monday, and on Tues day morning Dis. Poynter and ftrainston, Catholic prelates, with Miss Doughty's private chaplain and another priest, arrived to perform the ceremony of the opening. The mu sical department was under the superintendence of Mr. Le Jeune, organist at the chapel of the Spanish Embassy ; and Mr. Atkins and Miss Hammersky (of Covent-garden theatre). Mr. Horneastle, Mr. Golding, and other gentlemen of the Chapel Royal, St. James's, sustained the vocal parts. The solemnisation of high mass was commenced by Dr. Bramston, at a little before eleven o'clock, at which time the chapel was crowded almost to suffocation with persons of rank and fashion, several of whom came in their car riages from London and the surrounding country to wit ness the ceremony. The venerable Prelate: performed the service in an im pressive manner, and was very ably assisted by the vocal performers. Miss Hammersley aug with great taste and delicacy ; her tones were rieleatud mellow, and her execu tion extremely chaste. Mr. Atkins also was very efficient in his execution of the parts allotted to him. His deep manly tones gave full effect to the sacred composition. That first of vocalists, Madame Catalani, had promised her powerful aid upon this occasion, but she was compelled to be at the Cambridge festival. Madame Catalani has a house near Richmond. _ _ _ In the course of the morning Dr. Poynter delivered an impressive sermon, appropriate to the occasion, and in the progress of his discourse bestowal some high encomiu►ns upon the pious founder of the dispel. The ceremony concluded soon eller two o'cLxk.

The Right Hon. the Lord Mayor in the Chair. The company, notwithstar.ding the unfavourable state of the weathet, *as most numerous. The most respectable muster of the trade was present. After " The King," " The Duke of York and the Army," " The Duke of Clarence and the Navy," &c. were given by the LORD RI ATOR, with three times three, and drank enthusiastically, his Lordship popped the health of " The Duke of Sussex, the Patron of the Society," in doing which, he represented the name . of the Royal Duke as being identified with every great charity of me metropolis. In giving the health of " Alderman Wood, the President," his Lordship reminded the meeting of the strenuous exertions of t that zealous advocate of the people's rights upon every occasion on which his fellow-citizens were to be benelitted. Mr. Cozens, one of the Secretaries, then proposed the health of " The Viee:Presidents," one of whom was the Chief Magis trate, who honoured the company with his presence. It was, he said, needless to expatiate upon the claims which Robert man, the Mayor of the City of London, had upon all his fellow. citizens. With the countenance and support of such characters, the Charity was sure to be one of the most ettensive in the metro polls, to the independence of which the Mayor was a power. ful contributor. His fellow-citizens would probably soon have an opportunity of testifying their sense of his integrity, zeal, and talents, by placing him in that situation in the Legislative Assent. bly, from which the lovers of libetty regretted that he had been ever removed. (Loud and repeated cheers.) The LOUD Maros, in returning thanks for the l'ice-Presi dents, said, that this Society was different front those which had been the subject of his former animadversion, and which were, in his opinion, calculated to damp all exertion apun the part of the claimants br supporting them in idleness, and depriving them of the spirit of independence, without which an indi) /dual could not =be called a man. (Cheers.) theregulations of this the aged and afflicted of the trade, whose lives had formed a WWI of industrious pursuits, were prevented from seeking a re fuge in a workhouse, where the most important disdnctions were lost in one great tress of wretchedness. He had eo hesitation in describing the Charity to be one of the most honourable. With respect to the hints which had been thrown out in regard to • future desks, mg which It would be a most is him le pretend not to understand, he had to em ast e L di tte Meeting that he would not walk across the room to be entitled to a seat in Parlia ment, except for the purpose which he had always avowed, and to the sincerity of which his whole public life bore testimony--that of serving his country. (Loud cheers.) If, at the period alluded to, his fellow-citizens should think proper to call upon him to enter upon their service in the House of Commons, he should not deviate from the course in which they had seen him move for thirty years, but should devote the whole vigour of his mind and body to the ad. vaneement of the political prosperity of the nation. (Cheers.) Ili* Lordship then, in an appropriate manner, gave " Prosperity to the lastitutiou." Mr. REED, one of the Committee, in proposing the health of the Chairman, took occasiou to allude to the grateful sense which his Lordship's fellow-citizens entertained towards him, exhibited in their placing him in the highest situation, and expressed a firm hope that at the next election their gratitude would be further proved upon the close of the poll. The Loan MAYOII returned thanks in an admirable speech. It had, he said, been intimated that lie had been raised to his present situation from a very humble state. True ; and he had been ac companied in his elevation through the several degrees by the warm approbation of hi, fellow-citizens. Ile had commented that ca reer, of which they had testified their approval, at a period of dan ger, when every struggle against the encroachments of power was regarded as a rebellious opposition to the existing Authorities; and he was, in his progress, often reproached with disloyalty--a charge to which his whole life, as well a, the estimation iu which he had been uniformly held up to the present moment by the citizens of London and the public in general, gave the most direct contradiction. His Lordship then stated, that he had, during the period he had I sate in the Civic Chair, uniromily perrormed the duties with zeal and punctuality. Ile took no merit to himself for this, for he en. countered no difficulty. Indeed he did not ace how any difficulty could occur ; for if a doubtful case was brought before him, he al ways thought it his duty to le:.a to the side of mercy; and if he erred upon that, why those who gave him the poser of deciding would readily excuse the weakness in consideration of the motive. After the health of the Chaplain, the Treasurer, the Trustees, and the Committee, were drunk, the Lord .Mayor took leave amidst the loudest applause. POISON or TH E Lreas Titer:.—The poison of the upas tree has lately been subjected to analysis by Messrs. Fel ktier and Caventou. It appears there are two species of the upas poison; one is the produce of a plant, called by M. Letchenaut, strychnos tirade; the other, the terrible upas tree, is called the an...iuris .oxicaril. These che mists have made experiments on both poisons, and state the following facts:—The poisonous principle of the s;rychnos thole is that alkali which has before been de tected in theatr.ychnos roux roniku,siiil to which these the mists give the name of strychnia. From the upas tiiey obtained it very pure; and half a grain of it, diluted with water, injected into the pleura of the rabbit, destroyed the animal at the end of fifteen seconds, by one terrible attack of Wafts. A quarter of a grain dissolved in diluted acetic acid, given to another rabbit, produced a still more terrible' and speedy dissolution. 'rite poisonous principle of the other upas tree, or anthiuris toxicaria, is a bitter substance, soluble in water and alcohol. This bitter substance is composed of a colouring matter, of an acid, and a parti cular substance, which seems to be the active part of tl.e poison, and which these chemists suppose to be a vegetable alkali. This vegetable alkali has the same etfict on the animal economy as the poison of the upas tree, but is much more energetic. It differs somewhat in its action from stryclinia, the former producing convulsions, with relaxa tion, and not being so speedy in its destroying effects as the latter, which seems suddenly to arrest with a single convulsion the whole functions of life.—Chemist. A few days since one of the Preventive galleys stationed off Whitstable, having a party of ladies and gentlemen on board, belonging to that place, unfortunately got upon the weirs. In a few minutes four of the stakes forced their way through the bottom of the boat, which instantly filled with water. It was fortunate that the boat watt impaled, which prevented its sinking, or the most fatal consequences might have ensued. The party was compelled to sit above two hours in the Lost, up to their knees in water, before they were delivered from their perilous situation. The company, who were on their way to dine with a friend, were brought on shore at low water, the ladies in particular in a woful plight.—Kent Ilerai.:.

Mr. TAUNTON 'hewed (T:JSe. The Commissioners. desirous to encourage the navigation of the River from Abingdon to &ail ing, had given a drawback of one penny per ton of the two.pen 4 .: charged. The drawback was limited to the navigation between Abingdon and Reading; from Reading to Staines &c was two. pence. The question was, whether the Act of Parliament AL. thorised them to grant drawbacks to one part, and thus cause an inequality of tolls. There was an uniformity of toll slur.,; the whole River, subject to this drawback. He submitted, thwf a. this drawback was sworn to have promoted the navigation of the River, their Lordships would not fed themselves called upo.: to interfere.

But as the question depended upon the construc tion of the several clauses of an Act of Parliament, it would be better in every respect to draw up a case upon this rule, attd then the Court could hear the subject fully discussed, and direct • rrtundarnrs, if they saw cause, upon this rule, or in some other form.
