He delivered a most itrpressive di.rottlie, taking his text from the 9th chapter of St. John, fid verse, " Jesus answered, Neither bath this man sinned, nor his parents: hut that the works of God should be made manifest in him." The .collection on the occasion amounted to 1641. 4s. A most impressive sermon, on occasion of the death of the venerable Bishop of Durham, was delivered at the Cathedral on Sunday last, by the Rev. Thomas Gisborne, M.A.,Prebendary of Durham , from the 3 1 st Psalm, and part f tile 17th verse—" My time is in thy hand." ReeRERENT•TION or Nr.wC•STLE.—Ves:erday, at a meeting at the Guildhall, the Stewards of the Incorporated Companies formed themselves into a Committee to con vene the different Companies, and to regnest the Mayor to all a public meeting of the Burgesses, for the purpose of considering who arc the most proper persons to represent this town in Parliament at the ensuing general election. Subscriptions arc to he Vaised to defray the necessary ex penses.

SHIP CANAL RETINLeN GALWAY AND DUBLIN.--OUT readers have, no dottlit, been gratified by learning that the Grand Juries of the city and county of Galway have agreed to resolutions, strongly recommending a Ship Canal between Galway and Da,hlin. This is a prospect, the coin pktion of which would occasion such important benefits to Ireland, and the shipping interests of the nation generally, that we- should expect Is solutions of similar import to those of the Galway Jetties would bc adopted by every county in Ireland, but particularly by those through which the contemplated Canal would run.—Freeman's Journal. IRON TRADL.—At the Staffordshire and Shropshire Iron Masters' Quarter -days, last week, no fall of prices took place, except ten shillings per tots on melting pigs. The prices in general are rather stiff," and the demand more brisk than during the last month. A vast number of persons, connected with the broad cloth weaving of Dublin ' passed through the principal streets of the city on Frida y, heating a representation of the fleece in deep mourning; and, by the squalidity and misery of their external appearance, formed a group per fectly in keeping with the sombre emblem they wore. LONGEr•Ty.—Two men, whose united ages amount to 2O' years, were interred at Houchton-le-Spring on Mon day last, via.:—John Drew, of Houghton-le-Spring, aged and Thomas Fletcher, of Philadelphia, in the tame parish, aged 111. The latter retained his faculties entire, tia within a few hours of his death.—Durlarm l'aper. A few days hack, the house of the Recorder of London, in Lincoln's Inn-fields, was entered by some thief or thieves, who at mid-day climbed over the iron railings, and got in at the kitchen window, carrying away plate to the amount of about eighty pounds. It will be recollected that some years ago, the late Recorder, Sir John Silvctiter, lost his watch in a curious manner. On arriving at the Ses sions House, Ohl Bailey, one morning, he hastily remarked that he had come from home without his watch, which he had left hanging at the bed-head ; some rogue overhearing this, immediately posted off to Sir John's house, and told the servants that he was sent by the Recorder for the watch, and as he described the place in which it was to be found, no suspicion was entertained, and a valuable repeater, with gold chain and seals, was duly delivered. Barnet Fair on Saturday last was very scantily supplied with cattle, there being only 750 Scots, and scarcely any Webtli. The price('of the former were equal to the fair of last year at this time, excepting for the larger son, which appeared about 11. in 161. I ma; but the small beasts fully supported the price of that period. '.'his is nearly the first south wormy fair for spring stock; conse quently the nor'h country dealers are unwilling to snake any reduc tion in price until they have further tried their customers. This was evidently the arse on elsturday ; for buyers were numerous, hut many returned without making purchases. Barren cows went off quick ; in calf, a brisk sale: of sheep there was but a very small show, and 11103 C were principally !touchdown couple*, which fetch. ed about %N.—The horse fair was very indifferent. scarcely a good nag to be seen ; a few prime cart ones were .hewn. and prices for them very high. Ponies appear to be very much in request ; for anything having the look of fancy, the price was from 14 to 16 guineas, and even up to 20 guineas. Our correspondent particu larly requests us to caution buyers of horses to keep a good look out, having witnessed two or three queer transaction.. Among • certain class of dealers it appears to be a custom for one man to be sent to ride the horse shout the fair, and show him off in the very best manner he can, sided by a little ginger and steel, to set up his head and tail ; and if he meets with a customer, a baron •- made: but when the money is neared, the seller replies. " Dly muster will take the money," pointing out a booth or putAlle-house at which he may be four.d; at the same time ridings t the vurchaser to tl'e place named. While the latter is paying the amount in Vie ore tended master. the rider bolts sway with the horse, and if Inc Jil t rctunate purchaser is not sufficiently awake to the atritagem, he La g both his purchase and the money ; or if he is fortunate enough to secure hit purchase, he finds, at hest, that he has bought a de fective horse. In one trick witnessed by our correspondent, while the money was being paid, the fellow who rode the irea not being !afficiauly quick in his flight, was taken before a 3lagtstratc; but, f:rorn some defect of proof, w a s o bli ge d to be lib erate d : t h e h, , yer, however, through the agency of some of the gang, goy his money returned. TRE ATR Its. DRURY-LANE. The tragedy of Atte•heth was performed last night at this theatre, when Mr. Nlacready made his re-appearance in the principal character. There are few, if area, more difficult characters than that of Marheth ; and yet the wild imagination that produced it, and the rapidity and vehemence of the action of the piece, has enabled many persons to elicit a degree of applause in their performance of lt, which, in point of fact, they never merited. The character is ton frequently lost sight of amidst the ex citing incidents of the piece, anti we are of opinion that Mr. Macready has not altogether a just conception of this part which lie enacted. Macbeth is not a villain by na ture: chance and adventitious circumstances seduce him into the commission of his evil deeds : but Mr. Macreatly makes him otherwise, and we begin to guess at his subsequ••nt transactions—at the very manner in which he will fulfil the predictions of the weird sisters—from thelirst moment that we hear them pronounced. In a word, Mr. Macre:l(ly, an ticipates in his acting what he is shoot to represent, instead of paying attention to what lie is, or. ra:her what lie ought to he, Tepees •nting. He gives us no ides that Macbeth ever had any thing of the milk of human kindness in his nature ; attd his acting In the earlier parts of the tragedy is, to say the least of it, exceptionable. l,i the subsequent, however, and leading per's, his acting was certainly of very superior nature. That scene in particular in which the ghost of Bangui) appears to him at the banquet was excellently performed ; but he failed completely in his in terview with Lady Macbeth, after the commission of the murder; his vacant gave. hi, hoarse whisper', and unnatural gestures, are calculated to express anything but the feelings which he in tends them to indicate. The most remarkable fea ture in Mr. Macready's acting is its inequality; and it is really surprising that in one and the same character, a man who can play an well in one scene, should have so little concep tion of another. Upon the whole, however, Mr. Macready's performance of Macbeth was certainly one creditable to hint ; but there are many characters which lie can play much better. As to the rest of the dramatis persona., in the first place Mrs. Bum has not the slightest pretensions to play the part of Lady Macbeth. Mr. Powell, who per- Imitated the Kin{, has, it is true, very little to do, and yet he spoils the titters of the tragedy in no inconsiderable de gree ; no one can pity Danean's fate when personated thus ; he looks like a King that ought to be killed, and one actually feels a degree of relief when we hear that he and ourselves are out of Misery. Mr. Wallack, as Mac thig; enacted the little set down for him quite as well as it need he acted ; and Mr. Pope was, we have no doubt, qually successful ; but as it was impossible to hear a syl 'aide of what he uttered, it will be easily seen that we only give this opinion upon conjecture, and the recollection of what he used to be. there is no other character, we believe, that deserves mention ; only we must not forget to add that the Witches stirred their cauldron with the accus tomed solemnity, and to the accustomed amusement of the higher orders. COBURG THRAT E. A lie* burletta uWarrilieattractivetitle of Paul Pry, was produced at this theatre last evening. Prepossessed as we were in favour of the original piece of the same name, and its powerful representative, we cannot refrain from observing that the Surrey intruder is scarcely less amusing than his irresistible prototype. His situations are exceed ingly humourous, hia chasacter is forcibly drawn, and the dialogue replete with pointed hits. In truth, we were in COIIIIIIOII with the whole audience, kept in a roar of laugh ter from the beginning to the end of the piece. In this drama, of course, Paid must be eveFy thing ; the greatest compliment we can pay Davidge's personation of it after Liston is to say, that we Aid not miss the original. The other performers did justice to their respective parts, and the rapturous approbation with which it Was received, en sures it a successful run. , . Mas. SIDDONS.—IVe are happy to state, from autho rity, that the late occident of this amiable and distin guished lady has been attended by no serious consequences, and that alts is LOW nearly restated to .har usual state of health.—Ereniag Paper. Kean, the actor, is on his return from America, where be has been reaping an abundant harvest. Mr. Macready ia, we hear, in treaty with Mr. Price, the proprietor of the principal theatres in America, to suc ceed Mr. Kean in that hemisphere. Miss Poole is like wise negotiating for an engagement with the same manager. Miss Kelly, sister of the actress of that name St the Drury lane Theatre and the English Opera-house, is the favou rite heroine, both in tragedy and comedy, in Philadelphia and New 'fork. Morris opens the Haymarket Theatre shortly with a Very numerous and powerful company. In addition to Liston and Madame Vestris, and. the other Performers en gaged last season, he has Miss Vortle from Dublin, and Mr. Lee, the author of " Blue Bonnets over the Bo rder." Mr. Poole has, during the recess, written a Comedy for the Haymarket Theatre, in which he has again ventured upon an original character for Liston, which those who are in the secret assert is likely to prove a formidable rival tq Purl Pry. DESTRUCTION Or THE. ROYALTY THEATRE BY Flit • About half past one o'clock this morning, the above Theatre was discovered to be on fire, and so rapid was the progress of the flames, that in a short time the whole of the building was destroyed. The prompt suet:dance of the fire-engines, and a plentifttl supply of water, prevented the extension of the damage, in any material degree, to the adjoining buildings. A Parliamentary inquiry will, it is said, be immediately instituted into the state of the Universities of Scotland. It is anticipated that the Commissioners will be very minuto in their investigations. SINGULAR INVESTIGATION.-011 Thursday an exami nation took place before our Magistrates in their private room, vela tire to a eircunertance which has excited considerable interest, viz. the apprehension of a clergyman. The person charged was the Rel. Mr. Sturgis, and the supposed offence for which he was ap prehended was horse.etealitig. The circumstances of the case, as related by file. Beardsworth, of the Horse Repository in this town, were these :—At the time of the Warwick races in September, 1822, he offered to lend the prisoner, with whom lie was acquainted, a horse to accompany his ( Mr. Beard:mot:des) party to the races; the prisoner accordingly rode with them and attended the course Co Mr. B.'s horse, which at the end of the first day's race he took to Mr. Beardeworth's stables at Warwick. The prisoner was staying at the sane inn as Mr. 8., who paid all his expenses. On the second day the same horse was lent to the prisoner again, and re. turned by him in the evening ; but on the third day. when it was agreed that heshould return wi:h Mr. Beardsworth to Birmingham after the races—even after begot upon the course, he left the party, rode off in a contrary direction, and afterwards sold the horse. Ile wrote to Mr. licardsworth acme time afterwards, and stated in Ins lane that the horse had become lame, and that he had sold it for 81., but did not send the money. Mr. B. had hand-bills printed, and inserted advertisements, offering a reward for the apprehension of the prisoner, who from time to time wrote to him, but sent each letter front opposite par.* of the kingdom, so as to make it hope less to trace hint. It appeared that the prisoner was apprehended at Warwick. where he had been residing, and was one of the ran. didates for the situation of Chaplain to the county gaol. The Ma. gistrates told Mr. Besrdswarth that the offence which had been committed did not amount to felony, and thcrfore he must bring an action against him for the money. Another charge, for forging the acceptance of a bill, was preferred against the prisoner by a person who came from Leicester on purpose. The bill was drawn on the Rev. Me Cmwther, sod purported to be accented by him ; no evidence was offered, however, to prove that the bill was a for gery, and the prisoner was discharged.—/Tirminglearn Journal. Awrui. Surtax DEATn.—On Tuesday last, an inquest was held in the workhouse, on the body of a young woman named Mary Ann Bryant, and a verdict returned of "Died by the Visi. tattoo of God. " It appeared from the evidence, that she had been dancing on Monday evening, at the Ring of Bells, Old Town, in company with her brother and a young man, one of the :loyal Marine Corps, with whom she was going to be married in a few days, and had left that house with her intended husband between seven and eight o'clock. when, at the corner of Treville.street, she complained of being ill, and was assisted back to the Ring of Balls; when, in a few minutes after getting there. she expired. Medical assistance was procured, but to no effect, as life was found to be extinct. Her body was conveyed to the workhouse.—One of the frail sisterhood put a period to her exigence on board hie Ma. jesty's ship Blonde, by strangling herself with the lashing of a hammock.—Plymouth Herald.

TO TILE EDITOR Qr• THE BRITISH PRESS. Stu.--I beg leave, through the medium of your excellent Jour nal, to suggest to the Manages of the London Theatres, who have often stootl forerd'st in their endeavours to relieve the unfortunate, to give up half the receipts of any one night they choose to appoint, towards the relief of the starving Silk Weavers. Now, Mr. Editor, there are no less than ten Theatres open at present, viz. :—Drury-lane. Covent-garden, English Opera, Adeiphi, Sadler's Wells, Coburg. Surrey, Astley's, Royalty, and West hoodoo. Surely, then. calculating at the lowest, they could not raise less than fifteen hundred pounds between them ; and what an immensity of good would hot that sum do to the poor Weavers. Besides, that might not be the only way in which it would be beneficial I for, no doubt, the ladies who went on those rights would, in honour of the occasion, be dressed in silk, which would, of course. be of British manufacture, and thus prove an. other source of benefit to these unhappy men. With the hope that thee few hints (should they meet with an insertion) may not pass unnoticed. I beg leave to subscribe myself, Sir, your's, wish the greatest resnecr, E. L. Palsgrave-place, Temple, April 0, 1826. TO THE EDITOR OF THE BRITISH PRESS. Stn.—ln your report of the Middlesex Sessions, which you gave in yesterday 'is paper, your readers must have remarked the case of John Humphreys, who was sentenced to ttvo months' imprisonment fur vending indecent publications. The crfrence is of such a dis gusting and dangerous tendency, that the defendant could only have screened himselt from a severer sentence by expressing a sense of contrition and repentance for committing it. Even with this palli ation, many will be inclined to think that the punishment was scarcely proportioned to the crime. Here is a young " bookseller," so at least he designates himself, stimulating the worst passions o 7 the people by exhibitions of nauseous pictures; and pandering to their curiosity by insidious titles of works, the tendency of which is to destroy every principle of common decency. Every species of iniquitous jobbing. tried Mustier to cites/Imo them among the lower orders= and they 'are rendered accessible to them by being printed on coarse paper and sold for a tew half-pence. The youth of the metropolis, too prone unfortunately to coarse excitement, purchase and peruse them with avidity ; and guilty feelings, which were formerly strangers to their minds, become so many motives to action. The pollution of these platter* of offal Cannot be speedily erased ; and thus a deep blow is struck at the purity of moral feel. ing throughout the nation. When the stake is so important, no efforts ought to be spared in stirring for it :and I sincerely trust that the Vice-Suppression Society will devote their means and their exertions in order to put down such nuisances as Juba Humphreys. I am, Sir, yours, &c. X. Southampton.street, Monday. CORONERS' INQUESTS. Lovz AND SUlClDE.—Yetaday evening an inquisition was taken at the White Hart public-house, Ratcliffe, before J. W. Unwin, Esq. the Coroner, on view of the body of Elizabeth Mills, who terminated her existence on the preceding day, while under the influence of a paroxysm of insanity, produced by jealousy of the conduct of a young man who had been paying his addresses to her. Mr. Sitllnow—l am a surgeon, and reside in the Hamlet of Rat cliffe. Yeterday morning, about mix o'clock, I was called on to attend the deceased, who had been a few minutes before taken out of the Canal. I went. in consequence. to the place where she lay, and used every means to recover her. My exertions succeeded. and I restored her to reopiration and sense. She contested to me that she had thrown herself in, and accounted for doing so front a jealous feeling. She complained of the misconduct of Henry make, who paid his addresses to her, and who she said she had seen keeping company with another female. 1 entertained certain hopes of her recovery, and left her for a short time. I returned back in about half an hour: during my absence she had had an itnerview with Blake, which I think was too great an exertion for a person in her debilitated state. Site survived about two hours, and died from the effects of her immersion. She appeared about twenty years of age. Mr. Bennington. one of the Jury, said, he went to the Canal, and saw deceased taken out. She was brought to that house, and I medical assistance was procured ; the only mark of violence per. reptible on her person was a graze near the eye, occasioned by the drags. Site was not above five minutes in the water. Henry Blake, the person who caused this calamity, said, I am a atone-mason, and live in Stepney. I have been acquainted with the deceased about three months; during that time she told me that I she had another Krim. I saw her alive the night before she threw herself into the Canal ; she then appeared as well as usual. The Coroner briefly summed up, and the Jury returned a ver. diet of " Suicide." committed while labouring under insanity. The deceased, who possessed much personal attraction, was the daughter of a moat respectable tradesman in the neighbourhood. Yesterday forenoon another Inquest was held at the White Sean public-house, Great Dover-street, on the bialy of Catherine Keaton, whose ease was fully detailed on Friday in our Union. hall report. The surgeon, who examined the deceased's body, deposed that there were three bruises on the angle of the left eye ; that he had opened the heart, and discovered that they had not pro. duceti death ; but that her dissolution was occasioned by a tit of apoplexy. A verdict to that effect was then returned. FATAL. At - Tint...KT.—On Friday se'nnight, an two men, one named Green, master of a vessel, the other a young man named Morrish, an apprentice to Mr. Glibbett, shipbuilder, at Appledore, were crossing from that place in a boat to Instow, a sudden squall of wind upset 11 , 4.; they both hung to the boat for some time, in hopes of being drifted to the shore, or picked up by another boat, but the young man being unable to continue his hold till he could receive assistance, was unfortunately drowned. Green was picked up by one of the gigs of Appledore, and taken to Instow in a very weak state. In a short time after, he persisted in crossing the river to A ppledore: this was complied with, but he died immediately on reaching the shore.—Plymouth Paper. Huts: IN CIIANCLITY-LANE.—About five o'clock yester day morning the inmates of the house No. 72, Chancery-lane, oc cupied by a person of the name of Cornish, a bookseller, anti an other, named Joyce, a silversmith, were alarmed by the watch man, in consequence of his perceiving volumes of smoke issuing, not only from the cellar, but trout every window in front of the house. On the front door being opened, a lodger front the next Fouler, occupied by Mr. Creed, bookseller, immediately ran with a bucket or water to the c-liar, when he perceived a quantity of lighted straw stuffed beneath the staircase and the beams and rafters 'on fire, which he partially subdued by hot own exertione. In a short tithe seven engines arrived at the spot. and soon after they had commenced playing upon the premises the fire was completely extinguished. Various conjectures are afloat in the neighbourhood as to the origin of the fire, which we decline repeating, as we un derstand that legal inquirica are on the eve of taking place. A female residing in the saute house, who had only been confined on Saturday last, was, at the imminent peril of her life, removed to a neighbour's close by, sr:upped tip in a blanket. Had not the fire been fortunately discovered at the moment it was, from the crowded state of the neighbourhood. and the immense quantity of timber of which the houses were composed, there is every probability that the devouring element would have caused the total destruction of that part of Holborn reaching from the corner of Chancery-lane to the end of Illiddle-row.

Li (BY EX PR ESS.) NEWMARKET, MONDAY NIGHT. At an early hour this morning the streets were thronged, the front of the room being the principal point of attraction. Here all the betting men assembled, and business was the order of the day. Beta to a heavy amount were made on the Craven, Riddles worth, Outlands, and some of the matches, and some little was done on the Derby and Oaks; but the scene was quickly shifted from this spot to the Race Ground, where the ring was formed as usual, and the betting became brisk, though without being very pmeral. Scarcely any variation took place in the odds on the Derby and Oaks, but our next account will probably set forth some material alterations.

BUCKINGHAM'S CAR. Without offering any opinion on the merits of VC Buckingham's case, our sense of justice compels us $6 give insertion to the following garrative Ott he has furnished us with:— ‘• The erne of 31r. Buckingham, the late Edifiesof the Calmat* Journal, and present Editor of the etrirotot itertdd, has been suffi ciently detailed, on various public occasions. in the dissensions be fore Parliament me! at the East India Bottle, to be familiar to most of the readers of the Public Jonrnale. The fallowing brief outline, comprehending only the more important frets. may, he*. ever, be useful, as presenting the history of what he has done antis suffered as a nublie man in India, in a concise and connected neen. rative, founded on evidence which MI one has yet ventured to im pugn. in the yeer.lBl3, Mr. Buckingham left England for Malta but in consequence of the plague then raging at mat island, he peon teeter! . to Tterkey. From thence he visited Egypt, and went by the Red Sae to India. Soon after his arrival in that country, he wee appointed to the lucrative command of a large ship belonging te the /minim of Aluseat. an Arab Prince in amity with the British,• aid trading between Bombay and China. Prom this, however. bee was maidenly removed by Sir Evan Nepean, then Governor of Bombay, fin no other reason than his not being provided with tli East Indite Company's licenrw. (though he left England with no intention of Meiling India.) at the set, moment when the Goventon was himself hearing the highest testimony to the excellence of hie 7 character, and the public uttlity of hit penguin., in endeavonringto re-npen the ancient commerce with India by way of the Medi:alt. nt ' a ' n 3 a i n t. d li t t h lC e k l i i n ed gfi S am ea. heing not meetly removed from hie strip, But ordered.to quit India, (without any fault even being alleged-)n; turned to Egypt; and on a representation of his carte, fureeeded . free* that country to the Court of Directors in England, a license was sent out to him, which he received on his second snivel in Bombay. after a second overland journey to India. lie was dem' reinstated in the command of the chip from which he had been be fore displaced, (losing at least 10.0001., or the profit of three China. voyage., by BON auspension,) and after a voyage to the Persian Gulf, landed in Bengal, where he voluntarily resigned his mum, mend. rathenthan go on a voyage for sieves. on which hi ship was ordered by the Arab Prince to whom she belonged. " inner this sacrifice of lettuce to principle, he was prevailed ni to undertake the establishment of a Public Journal in India. I t this he invested, progressinly, a capind of 20,0001. in °nth and is the course of five years made it produce a net income of B.IOIOL fear. these five yearn, the paper was only once promented for an alleged libel on the Secretaries to Government, and its Editof was then unhesitdtingly sequined. Its subscribers were all persona in his 51ajesty'• or the East India Company's service, men of pro: perty, edtuntion, and influence, andol the highest classes of society in the country. Such was the confidence placed in Mr. Ducking hem's direction and integrity, as well as in the stability of bits journal, that one-fourth of Isis concern wits purchased by 100 of the first merchants, civilians, and public functionariee in India, in shares of .1001. each, amounting to 10,000/. " During the greater period of Mr. Buckingham's stay hi Cant Cotta, he was a warm admirer and eologist of the liberal system of administration pursued by the Marquis of fleeting O , which brought the country to*".he highest pitch of tranquillity and prosperity that It had ever enjoyed, under the influence of a Free Press and Oh. COursictinent to corenteece and colomnation. The meanie°, thin reformed course of administration had long -elected Mr. Quail* ham, its avowed advocate, so thcit intended victim ; and Wrist* calumnies on his peiyate character, written by sir. W. J. Balsas, appearing in the gm:rtrrio Berke, they were eagerly seised on as. a pretext for Pe. Buckingham's .destruction. There until at this tune an Indian pager .called the John Dull, Bet on by elm !Secretaries of the Indian Government, fur the purpose of crushing Mr, Buckingham, who had trinmphed over diem in a court of justice: and in this paper a series of letters wits written by a Pres. byterian clergymen, Dr. lieyee, sinned 'a Friend to Mr. Renkes.' in which he repeated an the calumnies of the' Quarterl A, view' with every possible exaggeration called on .the society to exnude Mr. Buckingham from their circles, and invoked the Government tea banish him from the country, as a Man unworthy to live among them. About this period, Lord Basting resigned the Government of India, and teas tinceeeded by Aln John Adam, as temporary Governor. General. Mr. Adam was one of the Innen determined enemies of the liberal system of Government adopted by Lord Hitting, and consequently the enemy of all his eulogists. ace of the first acts of bin Government was, therefore, to reward Dr. Bryce, who had laboured an zealously to denounce Mr. Bucking. ham, by giving him a place, under Iris temporary Government, tit Secretary to a Committee for supplying stationery. The whole community Was ashamed of this anandaloue aninintment. Mr. Buckingham made it the subject of yaillery In his paper ; and Mr- Adam (having. as subsequently avowed by hiniseli, in a manifesto pithlished by him on the Indian Press, made eevetal ineffectual at. tempts to prevail on Lord [innings to send ',Jr. Buckingham out ot the country, and. failing in these, expressed his determination to do so himself, if ever the reins of pewee came Into his handny made it one of the first acts of his rew and teMporsry Giontrninent to is.ite a decree, banishing Mr. Buckingham from his friend*, his 1 pursuits, and his brilliant prospects of honourable femme, without a trial, a heating; or defence, an him instantly to quit tee/ country, on pain of be , g seized and naneported Cs a felon, by Ibis first ship that should depart ! " Mr. Buckingham endue to England jest in time to save his children from going nut to join him, for which purpose they were on the eve of embarking, and the extienin cif their outfit and pas. sage was consequently lost. He appealed to the Court of Direeture for leave to return and pursue hie lawful occupations in India, end, was refuted. lie instituted legal proceedirgs against Mr. Adana, whose death rendered recompense impossible. lie again solicited the Indian Directors to permit hint to return to Bengal, for ever se short a period, merely to gather up tste wreck of fits ruined property. and wind up his &dins; but was Again. refused. He appealed & second time also to the Board of Control, who now declared them. selves incompetent to interfere. " Soon atter his landing in England, Mr. Buckingham received advices of the conviction of his calumniators in a court of justice eat India.w here, notwithstanding his forcible removal from the country in which his case was pendipg, his accusers were tumble to offer • word in their defence, and were convicted ap the ntterers of libels, characterized by the Judge as too atrocioae tc be even though* of without horror.' To lessen the value of taxis triumph, however, Mr. Adam introdeced a new law, putairg every press in Bengal un. der a license, to he withdrawn at pleasure; and the first use made of this. law was to take away the license of the Calcutta Jo:mean whiele he had confided to the care of others during his absence, al. though the mo .t solemn assurances had been previously given that the property left by 111 r. Buckingham in this Journal should be respected. Thus, not content with banishing the individual, and depriving him of a rapidly-augmenting income of 13,0001. a year, for venturing on an innocent raillery at a most obnoxious appoint meat, (a lire of greater enormity than any before heard of,) the In dian Government at length determined to destroy his property altogether ! For *horde after time suppression of his Paper. they decreed that the very types and presses should never main be used for Mr. Buckinghitin's benefit, and that no concern, in which hear any of Isis firmer partners in the Journal (to the flambee of one hundred English gentlemen) had an interest, should be tolerated in India ! " This sentence of proscription was carried into effect—the copy. right anti goodwill of the paper were made over by the Indian Go vernment to Dr. Muston, a son-in-law of one of the Members of Council, as his ou t, property, (though formed with Mr. Bucking ham's labours, talents, and money,) Dr. Muston having subse quently sold it to another individual for a large consideration, on ti.e ground that the Government had given the license, copyright. and good-will of this Paper TO tersesner, and not restored it to those to wham it originally belonged: while Mr. Bucklugiumanwho left 30.000/. in India. vested in his Paper, besides a large balance and assets in his banker's hands, has been minced, by these tam. sures of his Indian calumniators and persecutors, not entitle from affluence to poverty, brit after all the wealth left behind him in supposed security has been envept away by these arbitrary decrees, without even the form of law, he is encumbered with nearly 10,0011. of debt incurred by these persecutions, and by them alone ! " Under these circumstances, banished from the shores of India. stripped of every thing lie possessed, prevented from returning to the scene of his former labours, where his friends, his mutation and his prospects of fortune were all happily made; and *owed by three successive verdicts of a British jury, and the universe) test ninny corn of his public opponents, to be en inn( cent and an ho. nourable man; he turns towards his countrymen in England. whose rights t' freedom of opinion and security of person and pro. petty in ever.) q tarter of the Br el , ll en•pi e. he ha. been so severely punished for att inipting to unit:Min, sad uopes to meet with beide treatment at their hands. " If there be any to whom this simple Narrative of fads may be submitted, that Mail feel the harshness and injuetioe of the mea sures by which en ire ruin has been brought upon an individual, whom all parties now admit to have been en excellent private cbs. meter as well as a zealous anti upright adevecete of public fietAele, anti who has been truly a suffiret for conscience sake, it will be for them to testify the sincerity of their sympathy by assisting to rescue him from that destruction which, without their aid, mist inevitably overwhelm him, and crush for ever the hopes he arM en tertains of being able to promote. the mutual interests of Itssland and India by his public lahoure for the good of both." - -------- Mrs. Tumor, of Gomm's End, near Berhbampsted, 80 years of age, while saying her prayers on Sunday, with her back tw the fire, was so much burnt, that she died in excruciating agony VA hours after the accident.
