No care is taken to distribute provisions at the proper time to the soldiers, and so the inhabitants are obliged to feed them. It is hoped that the notice of this abuse will suffice to induce the authorities to put an considerable intricacy as well as of importance. It ap peared that Alexander Porterfield, of Porterfield, in the year 1721 held certain estates under different superiors, of which the above formed a part.

To readers of history, an Extinct Peerage in the Dictionary Form, admitting of immedia'e referenee r must prove in the highest degree valuable ; for, be it rememb ere d, t h at the generality of our historiansin detailing the deeds of their sages, warriors, and statesmen, describe those eminent persons by their titles of honour alone, without sonde_ wending to state that a Duke of BEDFORD, an E ar l o f RICHMOND, or an Earl of DEVON , ma y spring from a very different race in every succeeding century. EXTRAORDINARY EFFECTS OF THE HEAT.—The Exeter Gazette states the following casual ties to have resulted from the heat. The correspondent who furnished the information is supposed to have been formerly connected with an American Paper :—" On Sunday last the heat was so excessi ve at mid-day that the thermometer stood in the shade above toiling heat, and when exposed to the sun it became red hot ! About two o'clock a man walking along South-street was observed suddenly to begin gradually to melt down on the pave ment ; the bye standers, afraid that the beat of the flags would bake him into a pancake, immediately gathered the melted man into a jelly-pan, and conveyed him home to his friends in a state of fusion. About the same hour a corpulent old gentleman, while on his way to church, per. spired to such a degree that by the time he arrived at the church door he had totally disapreared!" ri age there were two sons, William and John : the latter died before his father, leaving one son, Bar} d. William, the eldest son, married a Miss Juliana Steel, on which a contract was entered into in October, 1721, by which " Alexander Porterfield binds and obliges him and his heirs and successors with all possible diligence, upon his own proper charge,' &c., duly and validly to infeft and sease the said William Porterfield, his said son, and the said Juliana Steel, and the survivor, in conjunct fee and life rent, and the heirs male of the marriage; which failing, the heirs male of William Porter field of any other marriage, which fining, the heirs male of the said AlexanderPOrteifiehl ; which failing, the eldest heir female of William add her descendants ; which failing, the next heir fern de of William and her descendants, all without division ; which failing, any other heirs of tailzie to be nominated and ap pointed by the said Alexander Porterfield, by writ, under his hand at any time in his life tinge; which failing, the eldest heir female of the said Alexander, and the descendant of the said eldest heir female, without division ; which failing, the next heir female successive of Alexander and of her descendants ; which failing, the said William, his nearest lawful heirs, assigns, &c , the eldest heir female always excluding all other heirs, portioners, &e." In another clause he reserved to himself full power and liberty at any time in his liege pourtie to alter the order, course, and succession, &c., except the heirs male and female of his son, and his own leis male, &c. The wife of Alexander dying, for his second wife he married a Mrs. Margaret Campbell, with whose property he pur chased an estate called Blacksholm. He had three daugh ters, the eldest, Jean, being married to the respondent's great grandfather, Mr. Corbett, of Tollcross. William had been married 16 years without children. In Septem ' ber, 1737, he made a settlement, by which the new estate of Blacksholm was placed in the same order of succession as that of Duchal, &c., in failure of the heirs male of Wil liam and his own heirs male. This, however, was super seded by one of the sth of November, 1742, and which was the one on which the question rested. By it Blacks holm was destined as follows:--fat, to the heirs male of his son William; 2d, his grandson, Boyd by name, and his heirs male; Sd, his own three daughters by name, and their heirs male ; 4th, to the heirs male of Fullwood and of Hapland, two near relatives; sth, to the heirs female of William ; 6th, his own heirs female, whom failing, to William's heirs, &c. Alexander died in 1743, his widow enjoying the Blacksholm estate during life. William died in 1752, without issue, and was succeeded by Boyd, who died in 1797, leaving a son, Alexander, and several daugh ters, the eldest of whom was the mother of the late Sir Michael Shaw Stewart, the appellant's father. Alexander died in 1815 without issue, settling Blacksholm on his youngest sisters. Sir Michael Shaw Stewart was the eldest heir female of Alexander the first, who were, by the en tail of 1721, called to the succession in the 7th plan ; but it was contended, on the part of the respondent, by the deed of 1742, which altered the original course of succes sion, so as to prefer the heirs male of Fullwood and of I lap. land ; whom failing, his own three daughters by name and their heirs male ; to the heirs female of his grandson Boyd ; and both Fullwood and Hapland having died with out issue male, the right to the estate devolved upon the respondent's father, the grandson of Mrs. Jean Porterfield, in which character he claimed a right to succeed William in the lands of Overmains, of Duchal, Boyd in Porterfield and Hapland, and Alexander, the second in the barony of Duchal, &c., and took steps accordingly. Sir M. S. Stewart, conceiving the supplementary deed of 1712 was invalid in itself, as well as excluded by prescription, and consequently his right of succession as heir of provision, under the seventh substitution of the deed of 1721 could not be affected by that instrument. He also took out brieves to be served as heir to William in the lands of Overmains, and to Alexander the second in those of Duchal, but none for those of Porterfield and Hap land. This took place in July, 1817, when the de cision of the Court of Session was in favour of Mr. Corbett. To this Sir M. Stewart reclaimed ; but Mr. Corbett dying, his son, the present respondent, pro ceeded in the cause, and obtained a second favourable de cision. Sir M. S. Stewart dying, his son, the present ap pellant, in 1826, appealed to the Lords, who, after hearing Counsel for two days, remitted it back to the Court of Ses sion in Scotland in May, in order that they might review the interlocutors complained of, and (Attain the opinion in writing of the other Judges of the Court of Session on the questions of law, and decide accordingly.. On thi s occasion Lord Gifford addressed their Lordships at very great length, pressing on them the necessity, in a case o f so much importance, of having the separate opinions of the Scottish Judges. After the opinions of the Judg e ,, were given, their Lordships of the 2d division confirmed their former interlocutors. This bore date Novembe r 13, 1829 ; and from these the present appeal was made. The case was first heard on Friday, when the Lord- Advocate and Mr. Knight, K.C., appeared for the appel lant ; when it was adjourned to this day, when Dr. Lu.h. ington and Mr. Rutherford were heard for the respondent. On the conclusion of their argument , the reply was ad knurled to another day. The LORD CHANCELLOR, prior to leaving the House, addressed their Lordships at some length lie referred to the long list of appeals which were ready for hearin g at their Lordships' Bar, and to the great anxiety he felt that no time should be lost in the disposal of them, for he con. sidered it a duty of the highest importance. It would relieve parties from much anxiety, and be getting rid o f much vexatious delay and expense, by doing of which it would greatly tend to add to that respect for the judi c i a l proceedings of that House which it was so highly neces sary above all things to maintain. By following the plan which he should propose he doubted not by another session there would be no business of this description but would be readily disposed of by the usual attendance. It was a matter of necessity, and as such he should propose that in order to expedite the business, instead of sitting three days in the week to hear those causes, they should sit six ; for his part, he would personally attend each morning from Monday to Saturday at ten o'clock, and on the latter days he should sit till four o'clock in the afternoon ; and he hoped that in this important branch of their Lordships' business he should meet with their support and assistance. There was another point to which he wished to call their at tention, and that was the system adopted by their Lordships of attending by rota on these occasions, by which two Noble Lords sat with the Chancellor on one day, and two others on another, and perhaps, on the third day when the question was decided, two might attend who had never heard the first day's argument. The general feeling of the com munity had been loud in condemning the present practice, but it would remain with their Lordships to decide whether they would meet that feeling ; but that must be left en tirely to them, bearing in mind that theirs was a court of Bernier resort. From what passed yesterday in the House of Lords, the Lord Chancellor is determined nothing of a personal n ature shall inter fere with his public duty. He has cleared so far as he could do it, the Court of Chancery : he is resolved to do the same with the judicial proceedings before the Lords. By sitting seven hours each day, he hopes to effect this objecr, but many weeks will be eequired ; for, judging from tl , e list of Scotch appeals alone ready fiir hearing, which is now before us, and which consists of no less tlon forty, and adding the English, the peerage, and other causes, no One but himself would have ventured on the task. Re laxation he will have none.

(From the Moniteur of VridaY, Sept. The Pr, silent of the Council stated in the tribune that SGO,OOO muskets had been distributed among the National Gouda of the kingdom since the events of July, 1830. Questions have arisen on the spirit which directed the distribution, and it has been asked above all whether. the largest quantities had been given to our frontier depart ments. . To this question the President of the Cotincil anslteteci affirmatively, in artier to remove in an authentic intiniret all doubts on a subject of such importance.. The Go vernment, always ready to make its acts public, has pre pared and thinks itself bound to publish, in the minutest details, a table of the distribution of arms in the depart ments up to this day. It is proved by this document, that the frontier depart ments were furnished, as was necessary, with a much gi eater quantity of arms in proportion than those of the interior. Some inequalities are to be observed, which may be accounted for by various considerations which it would be too long to develope here. The principal is, the eager ness with which the people of the provinces near the arsenals armed themselves under the influence of the first days-Akiingust; another, to the arms of different de scriptions which the citizens hail at their disposal, and •' which are not reckoned in the annexed list, which in eludes only the arms delivered from the public magazines; in fact, of 61 , 860,151 muskets in the bands of the Na tional Guards, 500,000 were taken from the arsenals in the months of August and September, without any rule but the eagerness of the people. It was therefore only by the just employment of the remaining 260.000 mus kets, the distribution of Which has been ordered and directed by the President of the Council, that it was pos sible to attempt to re-establish the equilibrium between the departments. After some farther observations, the Illoniteur adds the general tables, the result of which is, that in thirty-four frontier departments of the North, the East, the Alps, and the Pyrenees, there is one musket to thirty and a half inhabitants, and in fifty-one departments of the interior one musket to forty-two and two-fifths inhabitants. Such a document, observes the Moniteur, is one of those which a Government might not think itself obliged to publish ; but the Government is happy there is no act of its administration which it cannot at all times and on all occasions freely submit to the examination and criticism of the county. (From the Messager des Chambres, dated Saturday.) PARIS, SECT. 1.-A despatch from Tangier, of the sth of August, announces that the troubles which have for some months agitated the empire of Morocco, are daily increasing. In the south, bands are formed which infest the roads and plunder the caravans. A catastrophe was expected during the fetes of the 19th, 20th, and 21st of August, to celebrate the birth of Mahomet. A new Sultan was spoken of, and he was to be one of the fifty-four sons of the late Emperor Mulei Soliman.

" There are extreme circumstances which will not per mit men to observe the conduct which otherwise they would willingly pursue. " Can it he a reproach to the weak, that when on the point of prishiog they expose the false pretences of those who, under the cloak of legal conduct, would effectually ensure their destruction, by aiding their adversary ? " The Poles have a right to say that the faith of nations is hut an empty name, and that treaties and conventions have been invented only to cover the crimes of the power ful with the mask of justice. The principle of non-inter vention, for what does it serve, but as a pretext in the sel fish policy adopted by the Cabinets of the present day? How Austria has applied it in the disarming of Dwernicki's corps is known to Europe, and Europe remains silent. Prussia has violated, in a manner still more striking, a principle which, once adopted, ought to be adopted by all, or applied impartially. " Often have we addressed to the Cabinets, the guarantees of our rights, the most f fs'et a r e t e d pre ssing representations ; and all have been deaf to our voice. We cannot, indeed, demon state judicial the pru i r a o n c e t s e s a t i h t o e r y wrongs ey a which re : h w o e w v i a e s r •e , s s u u f ficiently proved by the most circumstantial details : of all proofs the most convincing is that furnished by the present position of the Russian army. " Prussia, confident in our weakness, has done well to give evasive answers to all the Governments who would seek to maintain, Lona fide, the principle of non-inter vention, she could not better disguise her conduct from incr e dulous Cabinets, that they might be required to see the French at Warsaw, before they would believe in the concert subsisting between the Cabinets of St. Peters burgh and Berlin. " Tie National Government has received a report from the General-in-Chief, announcing that the army of Paske witsch is eoncewrated on the Lower Vistula, and extended in echellon, on the right side of the river, and resting upon the Prussian frontier. [Here follows a minute descrip tion of the then position of the army, since changed.] It results from the plan of operation adopted by General Paskewitsch, that in case of a check, more or less severe, he could with difficulty regain the right bank, and, by consequence, must have the certainty of a secure retreat in Prussia, into which the quarantine will not hinder hint lona f ro m penetrating, and where no Russian corps experience the fete of General Dwernicki. This conduct of Prussia destroys all the advantages which we have ac quired by so nmch devotion, and so much blood spilled all over the soil of Poland. It renders useless, we are bold to s a all the miraclesolggle I ( l ) a f s m l l ) r ee c n ou an ni al ge a .

The attacked nation has not even arms to defend itself, for Prussia, not content with having surrounded our frontiers for a long time with a factitious quarantine, checks the transport of every thing necessary for our defence. Such are the means resorted to in order to reduce us; this is the fair battle offered us by Russia, assisted by the Prussians.

The world must know what we have complained of—what are the difficulties we have to conquer; and perhaps then the Governments, which are deaf to the voice of justice and humanity, will be forced to admit that a people which has had the courage to support itself single-handed against such powerful enemies combined to annihilate it, is worthy of a free and independent existence." PERMANENCE OF SIR ISAAC NEWTON'S IlEruTazioN, __A century of discoveries has, since his day, beer. added to science ; but brilliant as those discoveries are, they have not obliterated the minutest of his labours, and have served only to brighten the halo which encircles his name. The achievements of genius, like the source front which they spring, are indestructible. Acts of legis- Lition and deeds of war may confer a high celebrity, but the reputatio n which they bring is only local and transient; and while they are hailed by the nation which they benefit, they are reprobated by the people whom they ruin or en slave. Th e labours of science, on the contrary, bear along with them no counterpart of evil. They are the liberal bequests of great minds to every individual of their race, and wherever they are welcomed and honoured, they become the solace of private life, and the ornament and bulwark of the colornonwealth.—Family Library, No. XXIV . Dr. Brewster's Life of Newton. HAUt - it, 31.—The Government has lece ' r6 , l accounts from Ilatavia to the 4th of May, and from r Surinam to tha 4th of July. The Eat and India Colonies enjoy perfect trawrilltty. Tile spirit of the itthabitants is all that cart Cie• de ,.ired, and in Java entire harmony prevailed between !Ite Dutch and the Belgian soldiers. . From- the lettet4 of the Governor-General, Van der Basch, it appears that the surgeon -Major, M. Van der iirk hove; who, as we befote stated, was summoned from SoCrdetarta to Batavia, on account of improper lan guage, was fdund on inquiry to be merely guilty of some imprudence, Old therefore resumed his func tions in the garrison at Weltoreden. The conduct of M. Louis, a landowner, was mote blameable, but as he was on the point of embarking for Europe of his awn accord, it was not thought necessary to rake any particular stern with respect to him. I), , ssell, the publican at Samarang, is to be sent out of the country at the first opportunity. The accounts from Surinam express great fear that the crops will be bad, in consequence of the continued arid heavy rains. Large sums had, not withstanding, been contributed for the national treasury, the armed force, and the monument to Van Speyk. The review of the troops by his Majesty on Mon day and Tuesday on the heath of Woensol and Gelsch was very brill:mt. On Monday the dii,i sions of the Duke of Saxe Weimar, and of Generals Meyer and Curt Heiligers, were assembled; they amounted to between 30,000 and 34,000 mea, in fantry and cavalry, with 60 pieces of cannon. On Tuesday the first division, with two regiments of cuirassiers, a battery of field artillery, and a division of horse artillery, was assembled. On both days the King, with the two Princes, her Majesty the Queen, the Princess of Orange, and Princess Frederick, and the young Princes, honoured the review with their presence. His Ma levy and all the other members of the Royal Family were received with the greatest enthusiasm by the troops. His _Majesty conversed with the chief officers of the several corps, and stopped some time with many of the corps, among others, the Yagers of Leyden, as a mark of the King's satisfaction. His Majesty has given to the whole army a day's pay. The loss of our army in the last campaign is as follows:--Killed, six officers, 108 privates; wounded, 39 officers, 546 privates; missing, 90 privates. In all 45 officers, and 744 privates. Their Majesties returned to this place to-day, with their Royal Highnesses Prince and Princess Albert of Prussia. ORDER OF THE DAY FOR THE ARMY IN THE FIELD, Auc. 31, 1831. " His Majesty the King has given me the honourable commission to express to the army the satisfaction which he has felt in again seeing his brave soldiers on their return from the field of battle, in which they have given such striking proofs of their loyalty to the King and attach ment to their country. " His Majesty is at the same time in the highest degree gratified at the fine appearance, order, and regularity which he observed in the troops of all arms at the review of the 29th and 30th inst. " Through me the King declares to all the Generals and officers commanding corps that he is satisfied. " To-day, on leaving the army, his Majesty was pleased to give a splendid proof of his (satisfaction with the opera tions that the army has executed. The King has raised the Commander-in-Chief to the rank of Field-Marshal, and presented him with two of the cannon taken from the enemy. " Brethren in arms, I am penetrated with the deepest gratitude for this proof of approbation given me by my Sovereign. " What I feel u a son for the father who rewards me, cannot be expressed in any words. Those who feel the greatest respect for the sacred ties of blood will hest un derstand tne. " It is to your courage, my brothers in arms,—your perseverance,—your obedience to orders,—that we are in debted for this hippy result, which gives the King and the country so much reason for rejoicing. It is to your ser vices I owe the recompence which is this day bestowed on me. By my unalterable and sincere affection I hope to prove that I am grateful. " His Majesty has been farther pleased, on my prelimi nary proposal, to confer the following rewards." (Here follow a long list of officers on whom insignia of different orders of Knighthood and other rewards have been conferred.) " The Commander-in. Chief of the Army, " WILLIAM, Prince of ORANGE." THE HAGUE, SEPT. 2.—lt appears to be owing to the closer investment of «'ar.,aw•, interrupting the communications with other countries, that for some days past we have had no direct accounts from that capital, and the accounts from the neighbouring countries contain nothing respecting the state of affairs in the immediate vicinity of Warsaw. We only learn from Prussia that Czenstochow was occupied by a Russian division on the 19th of August, rind that General Knorring had entered Kalish with three regiments of cavalry and some artillery. A Cracow Paper of August 22, reports from Kielce that a battle might soon be expected near Radom, between General Rudiger and a Polish division under General Rozyski, as they were posted opposite each other on the 19th, and neither seemed disposed to avoid the contest. Rozyski had failed in organizing the landsturm in the country about Cracow ; most of the peasants had run away from the rendezvous in spite of all the threats held out; even four thousand that he had armed with scythes took every opportunity to escape to their homes, where they had been interrupted in the business of the harvest. PETERSBURGII, AVG. 17:—The Minister of Fo reign Affairs has sent a circular to the Imperial am bassadors in foreign parts, declaring that the sana tory state of the capital continues to improve ; that while the number of recoveries increases, that of new cases and of deaths decreases. The disease had not reached Czarskojeselo, the residence of the Im perial Family. His Majesty the Emperor regularly comes to the city, and after having visited the seve ral quarters to satisfy himself of the execution of the sanatory regulations, he gives audience to the foreign► ambassadors, and other persons, in the open air, in the island of Yelagin.

V/FNNA, AUG. 22.—The Imperial Court has re sided siilce Wednesday at Schoeubrunn ; but the communication is entirely free,and remains so, unless the cholera should manifest itself here. Since some suspicious cases in the middle of last week, which were immediately investigated by the hu thoritirs and satisfactorily accounted for, there have indeed been reports of similar cases, which, hOw ever, are common every year, and especially at this season, when the changes of the temperature are so frequent. In general the state of this capital is satisfactory. News has lately been received from Zara of the death of Lieutenant Field-Marshal Baron Von To masiel, Commander-in-Chief in Dalmatia. From Hungary we have melancholy accounts of dreadful excesses in some counties: a band of wretches of the lower class are authors of therm, and, besides robberies, have also murdered some persons. :At the request of the other inhabitants for assistance, his Majesty the Emperor has ordered a military force to proceed immediately by forced marches to restore order in the counties in question. Among the troops ordered for this purpose, is the division Bertholet, now stationed in Gallicia. Letters from Cracow of the 17th say, that very small bodies of the Landaturm can be collected, and that General Rosyzki, who is appointed to organize it, is reported in letters from Kielce hardly to have got together 4,000 men, instead of 30,000. The peasants, who are for the most part bung with the harvest, refuse in many places to obey the summons. It is said that, there is in Warsaw a strong party in favour of negociation, and many believe it will prevail According to the most recent accounts from Bu charest, the cholera was rather abating. PESTI!, AUG. 17.—The cholera is gradually abat ing here, and the number of deaths yesterday was only between fifteen and twenty; but other malig nant disorders, especially nervous fevers, carry off many persons. Private accounts also say, that a malignant typhus prevails in the county of Neagrod. Our trade suffers severely, and great loss will be caused by not holding the annual fair, which should begin next week. The accounts from the county of Zamplin are better; many of the riotous peasants are said to have been reduced to order by the mili tary, and the noblemen whom they arrested are re stored to liberty.

It is said that the Minister of War expects to be able to present to us, by the Ist of October, an army of 50,000 men at the least,perfectly organized, and ready to take the field. at M. the L fi e r b s t ea b u al having s proclaimedob •ained te h dep majoritydeputy yfor otfhvodtiess trict of Biussels.

GHENT, AUG. 30.—The day before yesterday some young people endeavowred to create a distur bance during the sermon in the church of St. Peter, but they were turned out. Yesterday, a wretch be ginning, in a loud voice, to blaspheme the Virgin Mary, was seized by some of the faithful, and driven from the church. A crowd assembled, and were so incensed at this insult to their faith, that they fell on the individual, and would probably have killed him had not a police-officer got him into a neighbouring inn : but as the fun , of the mob was still dreaded, he was confined in the barrack of St. Peter, where he will wait till justice shall proceed against him. The troops fought with each other yesterday at Z-lzaett. We do not know the cause of the quarrel which led them to commit those excesses. A letter from General Tabor to General Chasse complains, and notwithstanding the assurance of General Chasse, that the navigation of the Upper Scheldt would not be impeded, sixteen vessels from the interior, none of them going on long voyages : are stopped at Burcht. "It is also very strange,' says the General,' that Admiral Gobius,command lug the Dutch squadron, suffers all Belgian vessels to ascend the Scheldt, and yet they are stopped by the commander of the Dutch naval force at the Pipe de Tabac." This letter is dated Antwerp, Aug. 20. A letter dated from the citadel, August 28, written by Lieutenant Rupsrtitis, by order of Ge neral Chasse, announces that Fort St. Marie and the Pipe de Tabac are going to be evacuated, of which he informs General Tabor, that the move ment which may be observed at those forts may not give rise to any conjectures of a different nature. lie also states, that the fort of the Milkhuia will not be occupied. ANTWERP, AUG. 30.—The journals give long articles on a pretended misunderstanding between England and France. We do not hesitate to uffirm .hat these two Cabinets have never ceased to agree, and that there is no appearance of war, either par tial or general. Engineers have been surveying the mouth of the Ruppel opposite to Ruppelmonde. Ni e d o „ not know whether that port is to be fortified. T hree boats were unloaded this mor nin g at the citadel.
