He undertook to intro duce it, therefore, but did out, nor would he pledge himself specifically t• its support. Ile had forwarded the first copy of it that came into his baud., after it was ordered to be ',rioted, to the Lord Mayor, for the inspection of the Corporation, viewing hint at the sonar linty, that he himself was ISO way interested as to its success or otherwise. and he should hold it his duty to be regulated in conduct respecitsig the Bill, by the instructions of his coo.atitoesita. The house received this ad dress with much approbation, and a Committee was appost,ted to consider the Bill. Mr. Nugent said. that he had taken some pains to get all the iitfurrnatiou he could respecting the Bill lately introduced into Parliament; and had ac tually rphken to the Recorder on the subject, who drcl,reil to him, that the Bill intended by the Par. i•;;; Boual was of such a nature, that it was wholly • te.itictive one. without a saving clause on the put of the public ; if passed into it law in its pre sent form the officers of the Board could Hot be prevented front breaking into any tan's hour, and at any time.

The cburchwardcu next attached a bolt to the door ; notwithstanding which Mr. Steele Woke open the belfry, and also une-of the gallery doors, thus iistrodsciug his workmen, who succeeded iu erecting four sew pews. It was pluvial that he bail boasted at rations times that it was out of the poste of Mr. Jarrett, to prevent his pro ceeding in this manner.

This Asylum is making rapid approaches to a state of complete orgaitization, so deinioble in all institutions of this nature, and so difficult in one established on a new principle, without experience or precedent to guide its operations. The atten tion of the house Committee has been directed to no part of their ardent,* duty more strongly than th e m ea n s of removing the filth attendant on the last stage of destitution, and of preserving clean hoes. among their inmates. They are now sepa rated into division• of 25 persons, and each dive. sion is placed under the sioperiiitendance of au of ficer, whose business it is to regulate their labour, their food, amid their ablutions. They were em ployed on Thursday in removing the straw originally provid,d, and which the ti.e of a few days has ren dered unfit for the purposes to which it was des. tined : it was carried i n to Moorfi e lds, a n d there bur n t, the floors subs.quently being cleaned, and the rooms fumigated with vinegar.

All it.,., he says, seas the language of fluttery ! A thoil do cument represetits his Majesty's mind as more cum. posed. He has heard that the storm did little too. chief in the provinces ; and he has di-patched per sons to go awl discover where it first artier, us he apprehends that, at that point, some act 01 owes- SIMI has been committed. Three of the Yes.shr, ar authorised advisers of the Emperor, have ah cially reported that the hurnoune was owing to the dismissal of the lisle premier, Sung Tajin—and Suggests the propriety or mailbox the great 11500.

The Mathematical Board of Chins, at the head of winch is • Tartar Nobleman. has also sent up its opinion respecting the hurricane :—wheis such a 'term lasts a whole day, it indicates perverse behaviour and discor. data counsels existing with the Sovereign and his Ministers ; if the descent of dust continues but fur an hour. pestilence may be antics !rated in the south-west provinces, and half the population will be diseased in the south east. His Majesty has further published his iuteution of visiting the tombs of his sesceetur , , in that spot where the family first ruse to regal diguity. This intimstion bri..gs to our recolleetion the •poem of the Impesial Author Kien Long, on the visit which he paid to his forefalltrn.' graves. It is a simple and affecting prodoction; much better than the pre,. sit Emperor's l i m a s .. mations. It breathes a ch.oarter of patriarthsl benevolence and devotion. In the introtiuction to it he says. " when olio culiforms himself to the will of his father and mother, then is there peace in the family; when the Prince conforms himself to the will of hls ancestors, then 'is their peace so the empire; when the Sovereign conforms himself to the will and woes of the earth and the 'mittens, then shall there be peace ill tile univer.e."—We may ask why* will all this be ?
