The arrival of all kinds of Grain last week were mode rate, with a fair quantity of Flour coastwise. This morn. ing the fresh supplies •are smaller than for some weeks past. The weather is very fair, and considered favourable for the corning crops. The few superfine samples of Wheat that were at market were readily taken off at the terms of this day se'unight ; but all other sorts sold heavily. Barley continues to meet a slow sale, except for prime grinding parcels which are wanted. Pease that are dry are taken off by speculators atlast quotations; other descriptions meet a dull sale.. The Oat tradeappears in rather an improving state, as dry sweet .parcels obtain a little more money; but sales are' net extensively made. Flour continues to meet a very.dnil trade: • PRIORS ON HOARD.OF' SHIP. -Beans, Small (new)... 4-s s . 41 s .

MAGAZINE DAY. BLACKWOOD'S MAGAZINE. An eccentric, amusing, prolix, and varied lum ber, full of humour and quaintness, and a certain poetic prose which is to be ascribed, we believe, to Professor Wilson. The first article, " Old North and Young North" is a rambling specimen of elo quence and humour : at one moment serious and ihi passioned, at another outrageous and broadly comic. In either case, however, it is redeemed by talent, and is well worth reading. " The Wig" is a lively anecdote, told in his best manner, by " the Modern Pythagorean ;" a writer, whose tale of the Barber of Gottingen," inserted some time since in this Magazine, is not to be soon forgotten. " The Man of Ton" is a spirited Review of- this pleasant Satire, and is prefaced by some pungent re marks upon the more modern English Satirists from these we select the writer's criticism on Churchill, premising, however, that strict impar tiality on the subject of this satirist's merits is .scarcely to be expected from a Scotchman, whose country Churchill, in his " Prophecy of Famine," has described as a place where " Half-starved spiders feed on half-starved flies." • Churchill was a poor, how, unprincipled, vicious, coarse, creature, with smartness that sometitbes was almost strength ; and What to us must in such a person always be a mystery, he had a command over the English language, as far as his mind enabled hitn to go in it, which made every thing he said tell, far beyond its native worth or power, and has secured him no contemptible place among English satirists. His style certainly is pure and idiomatic. He was the 'terror of pimps and players—and his ghost probably haunted Garri c k, a lth oug h it was hardly worth its while to come up for Such a purpose. Let a thing be but well ex ecuted,—poor, paltry, and pitiful, as in its own nature it may be,--and it lasts. It is so with the Rosciad. The splendour of that 'farthing candle burned bright during Garrick's life,-not only illuminating the green-room, but all London, all England ; king after his decease, it con tinued to glimmer away very respectably ; and we have heard elderly gentlemen within these twenty years (one of them lived in Ludlow), belonging to the sc h oo l w h ose d ay was just wearing, out, quote the Rosciad by screeds • lines in it are still recognised when they me e t th e ear or the eye ; and possibly the entire affair may never be, from beginning to end, utterly forgotten as long as there are theatres. " That DaVieS has a very pretty wife," was reckoned one of the severest and happiest lines ever written, and " ea• uno disco omnes." Oh dear ! but a little wit goes a long way in this stupid world. Then Churchill had much rancour, and a large spleen, which is always in an inverse ratio to the size of the heart. This gave him spirit for a spurt. But be had no bottom. Ile was also' a coward ; and, like a coward, liked to frighten the feeble into fits or tear. Want of space forbids us entering at length on the subject of the remaining articles ; we may, how ever, recommend the " Tale of the Year Ninety eight :" it is replete with natural vigour.

This is a judicious, intelligent, and pleasantly va ried number, just sufficiently spiced with information to give it value, yet not so much so as to throw over it an air of heaviness or pedantry. It is a welcome mean between instruction and entertainment. The first article, entitled " The Court of Chancery," is a sound practical-analysis of Mr. Parke's elaborate volume on that subject. It details the history of the Court frem the earliest recorded periods ; tracks it through its various changes adapt e d t o the im proved intelligence of the times, comments on its defects, and concludes with the following remark, for the exact truth of which we c an vouch It is a fact which no sophistry can gainsay, that the most comprehensive, rapid, and efficient reforms of the law which have .ec.er been acComplished, or even attempted, throughout the whole of English history, Were the results of committees, not of mere lawyers, but in which a very large proportion were laymen, who chose to investigate for themselves, and in which the frequent recurrence of Gene rals, Colonel", and Majors, would lead us to suspect that the old maxim of " cedunt arina toga" was reversed for " cedunt toga arinis."—:•lf the framers of Parliamentary Committees are in earnest in their exertions, the hint mighi, not be thrown away on them. _ " Meditations on Mountains" possesses consider able spirit and truth of description. It reminds us " as with a difference" of Professor Wilson's ad 'mirable series of landscape sketches inserted some months since in Blackwood. In its imaginative Character, however, it is far very far inferior. The author is a man of keen and cultivated powers of ob.: servation, leaning rather to the useful than the or. namental in description. He paints vigorously but not poetically. We give the following as ajust and vigorous sketch, drawn evidently from life; the au thor seems to have had in his ear the admirable II e-view of Selby's Ornithology :-- As youcome nearer to the rocks, the ground becomes a little more grassy ; and you perceive a black thing near you, which appears to be animated. You go toward it, and it hops about'as if lame, yet bounding with great strength; and, at the distance of many yards, you can see the gloss of its keen black eye, and the size and point Of . its 'formidable bill. " Curcq, Curcq, curcq !" hollow as ever enchanter muttered 'a spell, and dismal as is the Voice of' the doomster, when the jury, without retiring, have said ," guilty !" and hope there is none-" Curcq, curcq, cicrcq !" It is the mountain-raven, cowardly to, strength a match for his own, but voracious, cruel, and savage, and sparing nothing over which he has power.' To grouse, and Alpine hares, and . lambs, and sheep when they are lame, lie is snore formidable than the eagle, becatise more treache rous. The eagle sails aloft in the open day—leans in the air against the sun, and sends down his shadow as a de claration of war ; and, if he fails in his " stoop," he de grades not his royalty by stratagem and bush-fighting.— But this dark-grey ruffian, with his hollow and sepulchral " curcq," steals upon his victims unawares, and, if pos sible, when they are asleep—darts first at one eye, and then at another —driv e s that strong, sharp, and leaden-coloured beak right through the centre of the ball—and, while they are in darkness and in agony, digs into their vitals. Even if you were to slumber near his haunt, your bones would bleach in the wilderness, if he should steal upon you with a "second thrust of the beak. The villain understands anatomy; too ; for, in the case of the smaller animals, one thrust can divide - the vessels of the neck, with more rapi dity,. and equal certainty, than if the deed were done by a butcher. The very sight of the raven convinces you that there is no good in him ; and, as he hops about, as if lame and in pain, you give him chase, thinking to rid the world of one black villain: But he disappoints you, at the very rimment"that you think yourself sure of him—bids you defiance in his " curcq, curcq, curcq !" and Hies on strew, wing to the loftiest and most inac cess ibl e deft of th e roc k . ' " Mexico and Mexican Illustrations" is a review that does justice to Mr. Ward's able volumes on the subject.. " Catholic Resolutions ;the Treaty of Limerick," is in bad taste. Mr. Peel, some time since in the Nouse of Commons, promised that as the country was fairly sick of the subject, lie would never Men tion it again. The i'riter of the present essay should have done the same. Before we close our notice of this nember, it i s but right th a t we bear our testimony to the talented manner in which the minor reviews.at the crud--as also the notices ef the " Fine Arts," are executed.. They would do honour to, any. pen.. LONDON MAGAZINE. " Reforms in the Law : History of a Suit," en ters with much spirit into a somewhat uninviting and complex subject. 'I he writer has a fair enough acquaintance with the natu re o f M r. Brougham ' s alterations—of which the article is a judicious ana lysis—he points out the defects of our legal institu tions, as instanced in the conduct of a suit, from the Alpha to the Omega of its process, enforces the necessity of deep and extensive amendments, yet leaves us in the dark as to the nature of thew. He finds fault with a system; but hesitates to point out remedy. For this reason we must qua lif y our praise o f an ot h erw i se a bl e article. " Mr. Hunt in Paris" is a sensible and dispassionate comment oil Mr. Hunt's late letter (inserted in the Morning Herald) respecting the superiority of France—espe cially of Paris —to London. It detects his fallacies, exposes his sophisms, and dwells justly, but not acrimoniously,.on his unfair and superficial observa tions. His praises in particular of the Paris hotels are proved to be wholly undeserved. The London coffee-houses; Says the commentator, are a hundred times superior. In the course of this brief article a few good remarks, respecting English travellers, arc put forth, which we here quote; they are ingenious, if not novel There are two classes Of English travellers, whoth, for want of better, I may call the John Bull Allegro, and the John Bull Penseroso. The latter is our natural habit. We love to growl—it is in vain to deny it. We travel froth Dan to Beersheba, and, find every thi ng b arre n. Th e journey stirs our bile, and we pour it forth on our return in a most Smelfungtis fashion. (Jilr insularity, and the coin fortable state of war with our neighbours in which we have contrived to keep ourselves for nearly two-thirds of every century, have given us no very favourable idea of foreigners; and, let us conceal itas we can—let us laugh at it as a pre judice of the lower classes--a thing quite unworthy of the attention of gentlemen and philosophers.--the persuasion that an Englishman can beat any three foreigners (I beg pardon, any three d----d foreigners, for that is the classic phrase) is believed, in a degree, by the whole nation. But action and re-action, say the Newtonians, are equal and contrary; and, accordingly, the John Bull Allegro goes to the Continent determined to see nu blemish. It is vulgar—it is low—it is prejudice—it is illiberal to imagine that any thing English is better than its corres ponding article in France. In his face you see legibly written, " Depend upon it, my dear Sir, all you have • heard about these matters, is a mistake—all wrong, Sir—/ beg to explain," &c. &c. Even, here, however, the na tional humour breaks out, and praise cannot be accorded to a foreign country without indulging in a grumble upon our own. Hunt is evidently of the Allegro class—and on being let loose in France for the first time slims himself superior to prejudice, by panegyrising every thing he finds t‘uare. " A Visit to an Abbey of La Trappe" contains much that is new, and more still that is entertain ing. Every one knows or has heard of the auste rities practised at this famous convent; but few we believe ase aware of the extent to which ) even in this tolerant and enlightened age, they are carried. Our author went some time since (he does not say exactly when) to pay the Monks a visit, and de scribes with admirable fidelity the impression made on him by their absurd and saintly austerities. They rise, it seems, at one in the morning, winter and summer, to pray, which is performed kneeling on a deal board; they seldom or never indulge in the carnal luxuries of clean linen ; even Suwarrow him self never clung to a dirty shirt with half the affec tionate tenacity of these devotees. With respect to food, any thing beyond cold water or mouldy bread is unknown, a rump-steak would be looked on as the most confirmed symptom of carnality; and as for wine, it would be neither more nor less than a bursting forth of original sin. We re commend the article to all who are fond of speculat ing on the strange diversities of human character; it will furnish them with abundant food both for mirth and melancholy, or, to use the classic language !of Gibbon,when alluding to the invention of gunpowder " enable them according to their temperament to weep or smile at the inveterate follies of mankind." " The German Gibbet" is a diverting piece of diablerie, full of the Radcliffe school of horrors, grafted on the wilder romance of " La Motte Fon que." It regards a man who was hanged, but was saved by the kind interposition of the devil, on the condition that he should procure some one to accept the loan of a cloak which he always carried about with him ; and which acceptance was to be consi dered as a surrender of the acceptor's soul and body. The legend, or dream rather, is, we repeat, amusing. State and Prospects of Portugal" describes the distracted condition of that country; it gives an ac count of its different factions, their origin, progress, general character, and particular influence, and con cludes with the following pertinent remarks : What, then, is likely to be the immediate result of the conduct of the usurper, and what its more distant conse quences? He has cut himself off from all diplomatic re lations with the rest of Europe, whose sovereigns, being the allies of Don Pedro, cannot wink at the overthrow of •his rights.- The commerce of the country. must be still farther r•educed--the finances of the state still farther em barrassed: He will, in consequence, be unable to sup- port his army, or to gratify his greedy followers—the number of the discontented must thus increase, by acces sions of those whose rapacity be will be unable to gratify; and if his brother recals his commission, or denounces war, he will be deserted by a great portion of kis troops, who even now exhibit a threatening aspect of revolt. He will then find that he is only the governor of a faction, and not the sovereign of a kingdom—that the friendship of. monks and friars is a poor compensation for the loss of public con fideoce---and that the shouts and bonfires of convents cannot protect hini.from the execrations arising from the marts of trade, and the haunts }of industry. His conduct has given such general disgust to the majority of the troops —even to staunch royalists, that it Don Pedro were. to de nounce him as a usurper—send his daughter to the Azores, or to Madeira—create a regency there in her same, coin pcsed of Portuguese nobles—and call upon all the faithful Portuguese to join her standard, there is every probability that the dissolute and contemptible creature, who assumes and disgraces the name of king, would be unable to main tain his ground for three months. Such, we think, may probably be the result. 7w"u L':_a .- _ -c .-.- NEW MONTHLY MAGAZINE. , We'have aeon far superior nutnbers to the present, of this Magazine, though we will not deny that it possesses good sense and some vivacity. The first article is,altogether, p o li t i ca l ; i t i s ent itl e d " On Public Affairs," and runs through the late discussions and improvements at Saint Stephens with lightness and freedom of animadversion. The East Retford business it comments on with unsp ar i ng sever i ty, and launches forth its invectives against the East India Company's monopoly. With respect to th e Catholic Question, it warmly advocates the liberal side, and puts forth some cursory remarks on th e subject o f d securities,, and the genekal administration of Ireland, which have point and ingenuity to re commend them : en voici-- There has been a good deal of rattle also about " secu rities," which we can only describe by calling it truly anile.. What securities can you have from six millions of men, but their affections and their interests? Who is to enforce the performance of any contract made between England and a whole people ? To what jurisdiction, divine or human, are the " Security hunters" to appeal, in case of an infraction o f th e b on d ? M a k e i t t h e i nterest o f t h e ohliger to be honest, and he will discharge his obligation. Make it the interest .of the Catholic landholder, now a nu merous and powerful body, that his country should be at peace, and it will 50 remain. Give him a stake in .the Go vernment of his, native land, and he will shed his blood, and risk his estate and his life in defence of his.recently ac quired freedoni. Make it, as England has long been doing, theinterest as well as the feeling, 'of Catholics to disturb Ireland; and we shallsoon-find that they possess the ability. Instead ef the present expensive army cantoned in Ireland, as an enemy's country, for the express purpose of enslav ing its Catholic, population, at an expellee altogether little short 0 four millions annually; emancipate, and you need not keep one-sixth of your present 'armed gaolers. Nor even that number, except as a mode of employing your annyintime of peace. Alter your tithe system, make it a municipal and fiscakinatead of a spiritual and degrading payment,; in the latter ,mode, 'too, at once oppressive in its amount, and offensive (to men of a different religion) in its forni. On the vacancy of each Irish P ro t estant bi e h opr i c k , equalize all the sees; let none exceed or fall below4,oool. a _year ; and in the Archbishops, confine the income to double that amount. Let no living exceed or fall below a clear income of 8001. a year. No curacy to be less than 100/., and not paid out of the incumbent's income. Let the Catholic Clergy of all ranks be paid by the Govern ment salaries equal, at least, to the present precarious in comes wrung from their indigent flocks. The whole of this expence, for a double hierarchy, being clearly ascer tained, sell all the present Church lauds, and let the pro- duce be throw n into a fund to defray the payments charged upon it. The poor would thus not be oppressed. The Clergy of both religions adequately remunerated, tithe proctors and Ecclesiastical Courts (fertile sources of oppres- Kiwi and rebellion) "et /we genus enter," would at once be disbanded. Let the assessment per acre be wads fairly and universally, according to the intrinsic value of the, land, or to its annual produce, and collected, like all other taxes, by the Officers of Government. Protestant lawns and deer parks would thus not escape, while the potato acre of the Irish peasant would nut then be unduly bur 4iened to make tip for the insulting deficit of his opulent and Protestant neighbour. The Protestant Clergy would thus generally and equally, and justly be provided for. We should see no fat pluralists doing duty in an inverse ratio to their ecclesiastical emolument ; and no starving Curate ex tort a bard-earned stipend from the gripe of his wealthy and reluctant employer. Irish Bishops would even then be more amply rewarded for their, spiritual labours- than most of their English brethren of the same rank are, and Arch bishops would not have it in their power, by running their lives against ecclesiastical leases, to drive a whole province, if not island, into despair and rebellion, by exacting in comes greater than the pro,i;it.e of a German principality, and claiming almost unlimited renesal &mg, from a popu lation a different religion. " The Philosophy of Clubs" is a flimsy, cotitran place collection Of legal anecdotes, respecting persons, of whom the world knows little and cares less who wishes to learn that Dr. Parr: founded a cldb Called the " Teinpus Pu n i . iiii" at Norwich, of which the members were 4 ' all unflinching smokers-- 7 your six or seven pipe men ?" Tice iiltelligettee is, as worthless as it is dully told. " Walks in llern#:" the continuation of a series of papers under die same head, that have appeared in this Magazine, and must. we conceive s .hy this time have closed the eyes of some hundreds of readers. We ourselves have dosed over the present article with indescribable satisfaction: it is quite lulling, and has been thoroughly saturated with laudanum. " Gag and Magog," from the pen of Mr. James Smith, is a lively and magniloquent apostrophe to these guardian civic giants. We wish we could spare room for extracts. " Travelling Abroad" is a pleasant, rapid, and metaphysical disquisition : the moral of which is, that people are much better at home than scam pering about over the continent. We recog nize, in this essay, the sparkling and paradoxical pen of Mr. Hazlitt. " Rambles in New South Wales" is a sensible and quiet sort of article; anti the " Sermon by Sheridan," a (we suspect) catch penny manufacture. THE ORIENTAL HERALD. The great fault of every periodical with which Mr. Buckingham is connected, namely its abundance of verbiage and prolixity, is also apparent in the Oriental Hcrald. There is no doubt much that is entertaining and even instructive in the present number; but it is so wrapped tip in wordy diffuse. tress that few will take the trouble to separate the chaff from the wheat; the verbiage from the tetv soning. Mr. Buckinghamseems to think that the essence of fine writing consists in *drag; to be ar gumentative, he fancies, is to be diffuse, Whereas,- if he would turn to Bacon or Locke, he would find himself altogether mistaken. What are his criticisms, literary or political, in the Sphynx and Atheneum, but a set of fine words clumsily stuck together with a thin cement of reason, and moulded into the form of a sentence miscalled argumentative ? Mr. Buck ingham, though not very juvenile we learn either in years or experience, has yet much to learn before he can be declared a competent or even a tolerable . editor. His present number of the Herald, bating the defects of which we have just spoken " more in sorrow than in anger," will reward an attentive perusal.
