Part of the Madras is considered to have been taken on speculation, and the Bengal chiefly for shipment. The farmers at Newark have determined to sell their corn by measure only.—•Doncaster Gazette. We are happy to find, from a variety of sources, that the bookselling trade, which so severely feit and suffered by the pressure of the times not long since, is now not only convalescent, but rapidly advancing towards a state of sound and vigorous health.-- StockportAdvertiser.

By WALTER WlLSON.—Litercuy Gaz. A BIT OF RAW.—A gentleman travelling North some time since, and having an itching for driving, gave the coachman a shilling to permit him to take the reins in hand, but finding it to be more labour than pleasure, from the wretched state of the horses, he applied the whip to a galled part of one of the animals; upon see- ing which, Jehu cried out, " Gently there, Sir, if you please, I keeps that 'ere bit of raw to myself, to cut a bit of a splash when I goes through the town.—Drakard's Stamford News. DE BERRANCER, the celebrated lyric poet and satirist of France, has published another volume of songs, for which he is to be prosecuted. They are de scribed as seditious, and are said to contain severe attacks on the Royal Family. AWFULLY DISTRESSING !—A paper printed in the State of Alabama speaks of a most deplorable and alarming scarcity of young ladies. Every respectable female, native or stranger, found there, is as soon as possible, hurried to the hymeneal altar. The young men are as one hundred to one to the young ladies ! THE COSSACK TROOPS.—The Cossacks are divided into regiments of five hundred each, having a standard and Captain for every hundred, independent of junior officers —one, two, or more field-officers for the whole according to circumstances, and a Lieutenant-Colonel, or Colonel-Commandant, whose name the regiment bears. In their bivouacs, as well as in their operations and attacks, they seem to pay little regard to regularity ; and their huts, those of the officers, as well as those of the men, in front of which are picketted their horses, are formed in the simplest and rudest manner imaginable—sometimes three pikes or poles with branches and hay, or per haps their !akes, or cloaks of skin, thrown over them from their dwellings. Dressed in a short, blue jacket, without buttons, but hooked down the front—loose trou sers of the same colour—a cylindrical, and sometimes a fur or forage cap—seated upon a cushion fixed to a high saddle—mounted upon a small, bony, and by no means Bucephalus-like, but certainly hardy, horse—armed with a pistol stuck under each arm in a girdle, a firelock slung across his shoulders, and a sword or a long twelve-foot pike, the Cossack is, on the least alarm, instantly ready for the combat. He is endowed by his nature and habits with an instinct which peculiarly fits him for the duties of outposts, and for their service (in which, by the by, I am taking some lessons), I suppose the Cossacks the best troops in the world.—Literary Gazette. KYNASTON'S EVADNE.—" An actor of the name of KYNASTON, a remarkably handsome youth, was generally selected to mount the stage in petticoats, which he wore with great success. A ridiculous distress that arose from these shifts is thus handed down to us :—the King (Cu/km.oo coming a little before his time to witness the representation of the Maid's Tragedy, in which KYNAS. TON enacted Eeadne, found the actors not ready to begin, when his MAJESTY, not chusing to exercise as much pa tience as his good subjects, sent to know the reason ; the Manager was perplexed, hut he repaired to the Royal, box, and rightly judging that the hex f excuse for their fault would be the true one, fairly told his MAJESTY, ' that the Queen was not yet shaved.' The KING laughed heartily at the Manager's embarrassment, and patiently waited until her Majesty had divested her royal chin of the soap suds." ---Essay on the Science of Acting. A BARGAIN.—Dr. PHILIP, during his tra vels in Africa, met one day with a poor Bushman in the desart. He Was seated upon a stone, and at his side lay his bow and arrows, and his spear, and an implement for digging roots out of the ground. The Dr. wanted to buy from him some of these things as curiosities. Th e inan h a d got into the ha bit of p refac ing or concluding every sen t en ce •by the expression, Do yousee ill youm e ?' ' sell The me your fol lowingbowauddilaulorgour‘es 7 , cur , r , e l d v : h — y, " do W Well, will you see me, I would sell them at once ; but, do you see me, if I sell them, I cannot shoot game." " Well, will you sell me your spear?" "0, yes, I would sell you my spear, sure e nough; but, dd you see me . , if I sell my s pear, I cannot defend myself, do you see me."— " Well, will you sell me your t oot-digger ?" Sure, I would sell it to you ; but then I cannot dig roots, do you see me ; so I should starve, do you see me." " Well, but suppose I were to send you to a Missionary station, where you could live by working, and be safe from your enemies; would you sell these things to me?" The moment this was hinted to the poor Bushman , he started up, and ex claimed, " Why then do you see me, take them all for nothing ; I shall not need them there, do you see me."—. Sorb, happily, is the prevailing feeling in South Africa, in regard to the Missionary statism. Their very name is " a tower of strength.".. W BRUNSWICK ECHOES. TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES. Sir,—Most of your readers are, no doubt, ac quainted with the anecdote told of a certain, not over-wise, Judge, who, when in the act of deliver ing a charge in some country Court-house, was in terrupted by the braying of an as 3 at the door.— " What noise is that ?" asked the angry Judge.— " Only an extrordinary echo there is in the Court, my Lord," answered one of the Counsel. As there are a number of such " extraordinary echoes" abroad just now, you will not, perhaps, be unwilling, Mr. Editor, to receive the following few lines suggested by them. Yours, &e. S. liuc cocamus*, ait ; nullique libektius unquam Itesponsura sono, C,ocamus, rctulit Echo. Ovid. There are echoes, we know, of all sorts, From the Echo, that " dies in the dale," To the " airy-tongued babbler," that sports Up the tide of the torrent her "tale." There are echoes that bore us, like Blues, With the latest smart mot they have heard ; There are echoes, extremely like shrews, Letting nobody have the last word. In the bogs of old Paddy-land, too, Certain " talented" Echoe.t there dwell, Who, on being ask'd, "How do you do ?" Politely reply, " Pretty well." But why should I talk any more Of such old-fashioned echoes as these, When Britain has new ones in store, That transcend them by many degrees? For, of all repercussions of sound, Concerning which bards make a pother, There's none like that happy rebound, When one blockhead echoes another. When K—nyon commences the bray, And the Borough• Duke follows his track ; While loudly, from Dublin's sweet bay, R—thd—ne brays, with interest back ! And while of most echoes the sound On our ear by reflection doth fall, These Brunswickers pass the bray round Without any reflection at all. Oh Scott, were I gifted like you, Who can name all the echoes there are, From Ben-voirloch to bold Ben-venue, From Ben-ledi to wild Uam-var I might track, through each hard Irish name, The rebounds of this asinine strain, Till, from Neddy to Neddy, it came To the chief Neddy, K—nyon, again ; Might tell how it roar'd in R—thd—ne, How from D—ws--n it died off genteelly,— How hollow it rung from the crown Of the fat-pated Marquis of E- 7 -y ; How, on hearing My Lord of Gl—nd—ne, Thistle-eaters, the stoutest gave way, Outdone, in their own special line, By the forty-ass power of his bray ! But no—for so humble a bard 'Tis a subject too trying to touch on ; Such 'noblemen's names are too hard, And their noddles too soft to dwell much op, Oh Echo, sweet nymph of the hill, Of the dell, and the deep-sounding shelves, If, in spite of Narcissus, you still Take to fools who are charm'd with themselves, Who knows but, some morning, retiring To walk by the Trent's wooded side, You may meat with N—wc—stle admiring His own lengthen'd ears in the tide ! Or, on into Cambria straying, Find K—nyon, that double-tongued elf, In his love of ass-cendancy, braying A Brunswick duet with himself ! * i.e. Let us form Club , .." - I - Commonly called Paddy Blake's echoes." Seethe beautiful descriptitm of the chace in the Lady of the Lake. We learn from a correspondent at Portsmouth, that Sir EDWARD CODRINGTON expresses, as was to be ex pected, much dissatisfaction at his recall. Sir EDWARD appears in excellent health.—Brighton Gazette. It became our duty last week to publish an indisputable proof of the deep interest felt in this district for the fate of Portugal, and we state a notorious fact in adding, that the expression of sentiment then recorded was only an index of that which pervades the whole of the ma, nufacturing towns of the West Riding, upon the same sub ject. Whether the rest of the kingdom experiences a simi lar degree of mercantile sympathy in the fortunes of that " ancient ally," we cannot take upon us to affirm ; but we are certain that a just understanding of our political in terests, as a great European power, never will allow any intelligent Briton to look with indifference on the internal situation or the external relations of Portugal.—Leeds In telligencer. A NEW DESCRIPTION OF HEMP.-Mr. WHITLAW has now growing in his garden, at Bayswater, a plant which he discovered in America, which promises to be of great value to this country. Dr. WHULINGBERG, of Pennsylvania, has given it the name of lJrpita Whitloa. Mr. WHITLAW brought some roots from America, and planted them in his garden in the spring of last year; not withstanding that the summer has been unfavourable, the plants now appear in the highest perfection. It may be cultivated in lands too wet for grain, and would grow well in the hogs of Ireland. Each root sends forth from eight to sixteen stems, of the height of five or six feet : the plant being perennial, does not require, as our hemp and flax does, to be renewed annually. With a top dressing it will yield abundantly for many years. The fibre is stronger than that of hemp or flax grown in this country ; and not being subject to mildew, would answer well for cordage of all sizes, as well as every description of fishing-lines. The plant may be seen at No. 13, Bayswater-terrace, this day and to-morrow, between the hours of eleven and four o'clock. World. CRINI. CON. CURIOUS INSTANCE OF PRESENCE or MIND.—A paragraph went the round of the newspapers lately, announcing the detection of a faux pas between the wife of a Dublin merchant and her medi cal attendant. The circumstances which led to the dis covery were singular. The lady, who was of a very vio lent temper, of which her husband had but too frequent proofs, happened to discharge a servant for some trifling fault. The servant, determined on being revenged for the loss of his place, sought an interview with his master, and communicated to hint his suspicion that an improper intercourse existed between his wife and her physician. This physician happened to be the nephew of a Roman Catholic priest, the visiting physician to a convent, and was, moreover, remarkable fbr his attention to religious duties. From these circumstances the husband refused to give the slightest attention to the tale ; but, upon the ser vant's persevering in his story, he at length determined to watch the parties. Accordingly he feigned illness and re tired early to bed on the next evening that the physician visited his wife. The husband was not long in bed when the lady came up stairs arid entered his bed-room. She crept in on tiptoe to the bedside, and found him, as she imagined, fast asleep ; but to make assurance doubly sure, she pissed the light close to his eyes, and perceiving that this did not awake hint, she fancied that all was right, and hurried down stairs to her pious paramour. The husband cautiously followed her, and, by a window at the foot of the staircase, was enabled to witness circumstances suffi cient to convince him that he had not been deceived by his servant. The first impulse was to take vengeance on the parties, but as such a summary method would have de prived him of a legal remedy, he restrained himself, and, retiring to his warehouse, brought his clerk also to the window, in order to qualify him for being a competent witness in any action he might raise. The husband then returned to his bed. In the morning he communicated what he had seen to his friends, and under their advice he followed, nearly thirty miles ont of Dublin, one of the Judges, all of whom were then on circuit, and procured a judge's warrant against the physician.-- The warrant wits executed without d e l a y, an d th e de fendant was lodged in prison, whe re h e now i s . Th e liut.lland next turned his attention to his wife, who had not the slightest suspicion that he was a whit more wise than she wished kiln to be. He requested her to wont. pony hint to her father's, for the purpose of witnessing the execution of sonic legal instruments. She, of course, made no objection, and they walked thither most lovingly, arm-in-arm. On arriving at her father's, the husband, with the utmost calmness, and (need it be added) to the utter horror of his wife, told the father all the particulars, and formally handed his daughter over to him. The phy sician is.,the tr.e. i s as we before stated, still in gaol, and ; 1 ; expected to come on in the course of next term. It is only necessary to.adtl, that no pecuniary motive prompted the above singularly cool and determined behaviour, as, by a divorce, the husband will forfeit very large expectations.

We need not observe that the statement, as far as regards his Grace the Archbishop of this province and Miss PATON'S being a guest at the Palace, Bishopthorpe, is a vile falsehood, most probably the coinage of the paper whence we have copied it. —Leeds ktelliyencer.

Subsequently, however, an order countermand ing the detachment was issued, and then it was diF.coyered that the lady's story was a fabrication, suggested by the soldier as a ruse de guerre to save him from the dangers of the fever at Gibraltar.

SPIRIT OF THE LONDON JOURNALS. People have begun to talk strange things about this meeting of the club-men on Penenden-heath.— But novelty is the soul of gossip. It is so long since we have had a revolutionary assembly in this quiet kingdom, so very long since any but mobs were parties-to insurrectionary proceedings, or since the executive power had fallen into such contempt, and the legislature into such distrust, that English noblemen and gentlemen felt it to be consistent with the public weal to summon whole counties in the light of day, and with. the eyes of the whole nation fixed upon them, for the avowed purpose of delibe rately framing a new form of government for the realm,—that it is no wonder if sober and loyal s d bstia a e i c ii ien n eet g asi c . so;t7eiaad 'i n ' od e uf t to i h t ne a i P o D P a ea uk m r e s minds be st art l e d b y an ex hibi t i on o f temer i ty so P on that a ccount more str i ct l y conform able to n o f n e u C r s u as m m n b r i e f e r 1 a l t i t k li t d e e l able to the depth and astuteness o f t h e quarter ympitagoritiitennghsatilltr,tee whence they originated, had the Orange regency, who in his absence represent that illustrious and much-loved Prince, been satisfied to adopt a course of proceeding more characteristic of subtle nation than of open assault upon the constituted authorities of England. The Cumberland regency have examples which might have directed them how to produce the utmost mischief, without eotiveying such alarm to their victims as might enable them to escape the chastisement intended for them, and without giving such notice to the friends of liberty and justice, as might put them upon setting up a system of counteraction, destructive of the plot and humiliating to' its authors. When Lord George Gordon made war upon the Catholics in the year 1780, he took his enemy, like a skilful veteran, unawares. Before the obnoxious Ca tholics or the Government could !csk about them, many of their houses were ransacked,—the prisons were forced—the King, with his family, shut up in a close garrison—all civil power was trampled undec foot--and the British metropolis as much a pre . ) , to anarchy as Paris was a few years later. When ano ther Church-of-England phreasy seized a multitude of loyal brutes, and drove them to the ruin of the unfortunate Dr. Priestly, and his property, so well timed was their wickedness, that the offending phi losopher owed the preservation of his life to chance, while his dwelling was sacked, his scientific trea sures demolished, and no refuge left to the perse cuted old man, bat in a country 3,000 miles from England. Now, it seems, after such triumphant precedents of persecution, accomplished by an over throw of the laws, and by a temporary extinction of the peace of society, that the Cumberlanders might have proCeeded with a more politic circuro.. spection, if they had got up their club of Protestant bravoes in a way less exposed to previous censure, and to final resistance by others of the King's lovnl subjects, who will, it is declared, make rk Vowel fill resistance. If the Lord of Winchilsea were as wise as he has rendered himself conspicuous, he would have bethought himself, ere it was too late, what were the practical effects of Lord George Gordon's insurrectionary movements upon the peaceful citi zens of London, and how it ended with Lord George himself. But with Lord Winchilsea we need not reason. He might feel, like the Duke of Newcastle, that we insulted his nobility, and attack us for a breach of privilege in forgetting what was due to a Peer. There are others, nevertheless, who may find themselves on Penenden Heath, and who are not inaccessible to the appeal of argument or to the sense of justice. Such men we would beg leave to ask, why do they fear that the Catholics would be snore formidable ; if put in possession of their constitutional rights, than they are under a system of exclusion from them ? The Catholics are noisy, and impetuous, and me nacing—why ?. Because they want those powers of self-protection (for into that is all constitutional li berty resolved.) which are enjoyed by every man who is not a Catholic. Is it not monstrous, then, to as sume, that if this grievance be redressed, the same violence will continue on the part of the Catholic, as now while he is afflicted by it? What would be the inducement of the Irish Catholic gentleman to dis turb the State after -he had become - a' member of that State ? To raise the Catbolic.priesthood into power ! They know little of the relation betwee n priest and layman who plume to themselves the possibility of such a disposition in the latter. The natural state of these two parties is one of extreme indifference, arid often contemptuous anger in the gentleman towards the priest,—one of humbl e deference, or of querulous jealousy, from the priest towards the Catholic gentleman. Every individual who knows the history of Ireland, the composition of the priesthood, and the habits of the laity, will acknowledge the truth of this representation. Th e state of close union in which they now exist .is an unnatural condition. It was long, in the progress of their snuggle for emancipation, before the Catholic gentry condescended to approximate to the priests. When the contest was prolonged, and the Orange op position became more stubborn, the Church was at length resorted to as an instrument in the hands of the aristocracy and the Association, the most con venient for communicating with the inhabitants of the parishes, all of whom were known to the priests, and for conveying the suggestions of the leaders, This inference of the priesthood—this prominence of the Church—is an incident to the struggle, and the e t ar ho rn lic s laymanwouldd at once vanish ee throw with ; and of the priest we should he ar no more hiitmhs it, into The than of the tractable Presbyterian minister, who. pockets his regium donunt, and extols the Govern. meat. We have dwelt the mo re upon this branch of the subject from being satisfied, on close exami nation, that the Catholic Question can never be un derstood by those who do not consider.as completely separated, the p o li t i ca l i nterests and passions of the laity from tho cause of the priesthood and of the church. But with regard to the Kent meeting, we would ask the conveners, for what purpose do you meet ? If to petition against the Catholics, it is. a lawful object, though an unjust and foolish one, for which, it would be cruel to blame your liona.file ignorance, however unavoidable may be the com passion or the lees respectful sentiment of all reit • sonable men, B u t if, i nstea d o f p e titioning the Legislature, your scheme be to raise a factious army with a view t o overawe i ts d ec i s i ons , let the Kings Government beware of suc h co unty mee tings. . Grace will fi n d th em an y thing but a farce.
