~'~ , 4 Mft Slat MANUFACTURE. liNittra*Reis • pamphlet, entitled "Oieeroariors Ms Me swamis Tendency of the Spita#felds Act fo Me .‘ilk Mearfoclore of London:"— . The present state of the London Silk manufoe _ titre is much as to call for Ills serious consideration of all who are interested is its welfare. The duty ..Ain the row material being great. the wags of la bour high, and the pressure of taxation heavy, the manufactured commodity is necessarily very much enhanced in price. This circumstance is render •ed mace injuriuna than it woeld otherwise be, by •the..attive and vigilant competition of foreigners, who, in consequence of labour being cheap, and taxes few. in their respeltive countries, are able 7e produce on article at a much lower rate than our-elms. The precise difference between their Price and ours is not exactly itecertained ; but it known to be so great as to render all compett 'Pion under preaent circumetaners,totally impossible. 'Darin , ' the late war, indeed, their rivalry did not much alfect this country, the peculiar circumstances of the times enabling as to monopolise nearly the whole commerce of the world; but since the peace, stuns, anticipated, their efforts have been strioody trimental to our interests. Already, to the great regret of every well-wisher to the 'prosperity of this country, they have swept away •linciat the whole of our foreign trade in silks; and by means of pmuggling. which it is found imipoosible wholly ' so p;event, they are enabled to interfere to a very itonsiderable extent with the home market. But in addition to the loss of the export trade, in consequence of the cheapness of foreign silk goods, the London silk manufacturer is three-. void with the loot of the domestic trade also,. threvgh the competition of manufactories recently erablished at Macclesfield, Manchester, Read ing, and other places. It is Well known to all osho are acquainted with the silk trade, that the - wea'vers in Spitalfields are entitled, by a special Act of Parliament, to demand a fixed price for. their tabour, to be settled by the Magistrate, sod that the manufacturer is liable to heavy penalties if he employ weavers out of the district. The natural effect of this Act is to raise the rate of wages in London very touch above that of the country, and thus enable the country manufacturer to get up • cheaper article, and eorninaild an extensive sale, at the expense of the Loudon manufacturer. Such being the situation of the trade, it becomes the 4,lVty of those who are concerned is it to ascer tale what remedies can he applied to the evils Complained of; to determine what measures ought to he adopted to regain, if possible, the ground already lost in the foreign markets; and to endea vour to meet the competiton of the home trade upon equal terms, null with a fair chance of suc cess. It is seriously to be feared that if something be not immediately done, if a more enlightened system of policy than has hitherto prevailed be not speedily adopted, the silk trade of London will receive a vest, if not an irreparable injury. The object contemplated should be • reduction in the price of the commodity—and this, it appears, csu only be accomplished by the abrogation If all rerrirtions on labour, and u more Meatier use of morhiairry. if these measures were carried into effect, the establishments in London would tonne- 4:litatety be placed ou a level with those of the coyo tes., and an important inapt gained towards the tsitimate design of competing with the foreign ma norst•turer. This last object, indeed, competition with fo vrt go silks, has been generally held to be imprac ticable. it has been supposed, that use silk trade of this country could only exist, as it was first established, ender the protection of a legislative Prohibition. But from the evidence recenly laid trefnre the Committee appointed by the House of Lord', to consider the means of extending our foreign trade, It appeal probable, that if proper use were oracle of the advantages possessed by this I:triiiitry, its trade in bilk might. at a future period, -tie left to its own resources, without auy prohi hilory 'regulations whatever. As we have now free 'CCM to the raw materiel through our East ern coloilies—an almost uulunited command over -capital and machinery—and artisans, whose io vhistry and skill cannot be surpassed—it is you ceived that we have it in our power witimuldy to triomph over foreign competition. The Report of the Lords' Committee speaks confidently on this point, and also on the tendency of the Spitalfields Act', - tO prevent the general improvement of the manufacture, and depress the Loodou trade. ifiltrlNCia OP CRROITORs AT Tim COURT .OP COMMISSIONERS OF BA 111i7O1 P FS, TO MORROW.

Our hostess, Signora Vitili, introduced at to our next-door neighbours, who consisted of he► own water, with three fair daughters, conside►ed at this time the belles of Athens. They are kstiswit by the title of Considine, their father having held the post of British Vice-Consul. One of these young Ladies w■e iuttpo.ed to be that J. Maid of Athens," who is celebrated in some beautiful verses annexed to Childe 'Jerold : her countenance was extremely iriteresting, tool her eye retained mach of its wonted brilliancy ; hut the roses had already deserted her cheek, and we observed the re mains only 'of that loveline►s which elicited such strains from au impassioned poet. Si, fading a flower is beauty in these climates that a very less years see It rise to sparkle like a meteor and to va nish. A Grecian damsel of sixteen is frequently an gehcal at twenty she becomes plain ; and, to five years more, frightfully ugly. There is no tran sition. as with us, from the light beauty of the girl to the mature graces of the matron and vene rable dignity of iktivaticell age: the race of a sylph becomes almost transformed tints a gorgon's head. Io discussing this subject with Signore Lusieri, lie assured me, that the fault lay not so much in tbe.climate as in the destructive habits of the Gre cian females, more especially in the abuse of the bath, which they attend almost daily, remaining iu its hot sudituries several hours at a time, where they discuss more scandal than circulates at an English tea-ta►ile in as many weeks: hence their colour vaisiriltes and their fibres are relaxed ; hence they beitinue datikaid and unable to take some exercise; 50011 after the age of twenty wrin kles begin to appear, and they sutler all the incosi veniesices of prernittire deb:lily: Though the . 'Grecian females are not accomplished, yet they 'possess a considerable degree of elegance and ad dress in their manners; their *ululation is particu larly graceful, consisting of a gentle inclination of the body, whilst the right bend is brought its contact with the waist : they are generally Csond by visitors recliniug indolently on the sofas of the apartment, their silken robes bound round with a silver-clasped zone, their hair pertly wreathed with flowers or adorned with pearls, end partly flowing in curls over their shoulders, their eye brows carefully arranged and tinged with *urine, a powder of the blackest dye, their nails stained will) henna, and their complexion too of en aided by artificial lustre; exhibiting melancholy examples of the neglect of nature's choicest gifts, the sub stantial graces of the mind.—(Hughes's Travels in GI etre.)

Not to be wanting in my daty, that duty incum bent :Ton every man; and not lose, at the same time, the satisfaction I feel in being useful to others, I have resulted to take op my pen, and to inform those who, for want of conversing with me, are strangers to *lust those know and see with whom I have the pleasure of being acquainted; but as certain things may appear to some persons scarcely credible, nay, impossible. though actually true. I shall out fitl to relate them fur the benefit of the public. Wherefore, !my, being, God be praised, orrived at my 95th year, and still finding myself sound and hearty, content and cheerful, 1 never cease thanking the divine Majesty for so great a blessing, considering the usual fate of other old men. These scarcely attain the age of seventy, without losing their health and spirits ; growing melancholy and peevish ; continually hannied by the thoughts of death; apprehending their la•t hour from one day to another, so that it is impossible to drive such thoughts out of their minds; whereas such things give me riot the least uneasiness; fur, indeed, 1 cart not at all make then the object of my attention, as I shall hereafter snare plainly relate. I shall, be. • demoostiate the certainty I enjoy of living to • hundred. But to ►ender this dissertation more methodicad. I shall begin by considering man at his birth ; and from thence accompany him, through every stage of life, to his grave. I therefore say, that some come into the world with the stamina of life so weak, that they live hut a few cl.p, or months, or years ; and it can not be clearly known to what such shortness of life is nwit ; whether to some defect in the feather or 'mother in begetting them ; or to the revolu tions of the heaveirs ; or to the defect of Nature, st►lysct as she is to the celestial influence. For I could never bring myself to believe, that Nature, the common parent of all, should he partial to any of her children. Therefore, as we caunst assign the causes, we must be content with reasoning from the elirchr, such as they daily appear to our view. Others we born sound, indeed, and lively; but, notwithstanding, with a prior weakly cotistitotton ; and of these some live to the age of 10; others to 20; others to 30 and 4u; yet they seldom live to be old men. Others, agiiio, bring into the world a perfect constitution, and live to old age; but it is gene rally, as I have already rand. awold age full of sick ness and sorrow ; for which they have to thank themselves, because they most unreasonably .pre- Borne on the goodness of their eoustitatioir. ; and cannot by any means he brought to depart, when grown old, from the mode of life they pursued in their younger flays; es if they still retained all their primitive vigour. Nay, they intend to live us irregularly when past the meridian of life, as they did all the nine of their youth ; think ing they shall never grow old, nor their constitutions be ever impaired. Neither do they consider that the stomach has lost its natural heat, and that they should oil that account psyoi greater regard to the quality of al►at tiny eat, and what wines they drink; and likewise to the quantity of each, which they ought to lesseu; whereas, on the contrary, they are for increasing ; saying, that as we lose our health and vigour by wowing pld, we should endeavour to repair the loss by increasing the quantity of our food, since it is by sustenance that we are to pre serve the individual. In that, nevertheless, they are greatly mistaken, since, as the natural heat lessens as ame grows in years. he should diminish the quantity of his meat mid drink ; nature. especially at that period, being content with little. Nay, though they have every rea son to believe this to be the case, they ate so obstinate as to think otherwise, and still follow their usual diso , derly life. But were they to relinquish it in due time. and betake themselves to a s , .ber and segulur course, they would tint grow infirm in their old age, but would continue, as I am, strong and hearty, considering how good and perfect a constitution it has pleased the Al. mighty to bestow upon them, and would live to the age of a hundred and twenty. This has been the case of others, who, as we read in many authors, have lived a sober life, and of course were born with this perfect constitution ; and had it been my lot to enjoy such a coinitttutioo, I should make no doubt of attaining the tame age. But as I was burn with feeble stamina, I am afraid I shall not outlive a hundred. Were others, too, who are also bort, with au infirm constitution, to betake them selves to a regular life, as I have done, they would attain the age of a hunched and upwards, as shall be my case. . _ _ And this certainty of being able to live ■ great age is, in my opinion, a great advantage, and highly to be valued ; none being sure to lire even a single hour, except such as adhere to the rules of teurperence. This securny of life is built on good and truly natural reasons, which can never fail ; it being impossible. m the nature of things, that he who leads a sober and regular life, should breathe any sickness, tir die of en unnatural death, before the time, at which it is impossible he should live. But sooner he CllllllO die, us a sober life has the virtue to remove all the usual cause. of sickness. and sick ness cannot happen without a cause; which cause being removed, sickness is likewise removed; and sickness being removed, an untimely sod violent death must be prevented. MURDER AND SUICIDE. 'The body of a young man, named John Dale, a hawker, from Chesterlield, was found in December last in Wink borne Wood, in a sad state of putrefaction, he having been murdered by some person or persons unknown, io the mouth of July preceding. Since that time, the Magistrates bare directed every possible inquiry sad the most diligent search, with a view to discover the wretches who committed the dreadful crime. Suspicion principally rested upon one William Harvey, agaiwst whom a warrant was issued for hone-stealing, and who, with oilier persons of had fault, was shoot the time of the murder living in Earle( Bran, sad also epos one Henry Standley, • native of Wiukburse, mid ■n occasional resident of Carlton in Lindbrick. On the latter the suspicion was more strongly confirmed by a piece of sprigged =astir, being seat to • respectable tall. liner in Soutbwell, by • relative of his, to be made into a cep, which muslin wee identified Sy the father of the de ceased. Stavidley wee then apprehended. The vigilance of the Magistrate; and Constables was ■ow more active than ern, cud many other articles which had belonged to the un formsaate sufferer were found in the possessioa of the Prisoner'irelatlves. His shoes, which had been particularly described, were found in the po ion of a mats at Carlton, to whom Stendley had mild them, and the watch in the posses sion of • person who had received it from him. On Satur day seamiest be underwent a public examination at the Howie of Correction in Soothed', wheat such • strong body of eirenesstonti•i evidence was produced as to leave no doubt of his guilt. The Prisoner stood the greater part of the examination with his bands in his coat pockets, but ap peared at times greatl3. agitated, particularly when the shoes sad watch of the deceased were produced, and identi fied by Dale's father. The watch was found in tie possre-ioa of Standley's wife's mother, In Broad gate, sear the Wheat Sheaf, Liocoln; and the shoes had bees sold by the prisoner to • person at Belford. When theme were produced, the re membrance of past guilt seemed to harrow up his utmost soul, and curdle his young blood, the colour left his cheeks, be gave a convulsive start, and dropped senseless on the Boor' The effect upon the Magistrates sod the siailience was like sa electric shock! Who iiiileed mold then doubt his gosh I The prisoner Does recovered; the examination was speedily concluded, and the warrant was mode out for his commitment to Nottingham county gaol, to take his trial for the horrid offeoce. He was again seal to his cell ; and the horror of his situatioa had such an effect o■ his mind, that se contrived to hang himself during the sight. 0 what • leap in the dark was here! the murderer of • f►l. low-creature finished his career by murdering himself, sad thus rushing usbiddes into the presence of his Sinker, with all his trims upon his head!—The instrumeot with which he performed this list tragedy was • • angle checked mus lin handkerchief, which lie had worn round his neck, and which is believed to base been part of the fruits of the first murder.—di Coroner's Inquest eat over the body, and it was ordered that his remains should be buried is the highway, at the bottom of Barrage Green, near the House of Comedies. A woman, who cells herself Mary Aldridge, has been committed to Huntingdon gaol, for having in her possession a large quantity of counterfeit silver coin, of which she could give no satisfactory account. She went from Stamford by the New castle coach on Thursday night, the 7'h inst. with the intention, as she stated, of returning after ►he should have possessed herself of a parcel which spas-addressed to " Mrs. Thompson, Huntingdon, to be left till called for." That parcel, it had been ascertained before she called at the coach office, contained 108 half-crowns and 40 *billings, all counterfeits, of the coin of the lute reign. The woman had lift Huntingdon on the preceding Monday for Stamford, in company with two other lemales and a little boy and girl ; they had been fur some time in the former neighbourhood, sleep ing occasionally at public-houses. and at other times in a c aravan, on which was painted the name of"Joliti Aldridge," and over the door, " the Free masons' AMC" Two writ accompanied the cara van. having the appearance of hawkers; the os tensible trade of the party was that of selling pocket-hooks. purses, hardware. and linen shawl►. Previously to this discovery at Huntingdon. much base coin had been circulated in the neighbourhood. The woman who has been apprehended assumed the different names of Willins. 'Thompson, Gowen, and Aldridge. It is supposed that the party to which shit:settings are with their caravan yet in the neighbourhood ofStamford. Yesterday se'nnight, about three o'clock, as Mr T.
