PRECENTATION Of a SUPERB VASE to CHARLES OGLE, Esq., late Collector of His Majesty's Customs, New castle-upon-Tyne : It has been previously mentioned in THE Sux that the Chamber of Commerce of Newcastle-upon-Tyne had resolved to present a Piece of Plate to Charles Ogle, Esq., late Col lector of the Customs of that Port, an elegant Vase Tureen, bearing the following inscription, was according presented on Saturday last :- - - Presented, November 5, 185, By the Chamber of Commerce of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, To CHARLES OGLE, ESQ., As a Testimony of their Respect and Esteem for his Character as a Public Officer, for a period of 34 years, during which he filled the important situation of Collector of his Majesty's Customs, at the Port of Newcastle. It was intended that the Vase should be presented at a public dinner, but in consequence of the present state of Mr. Ogle's health, that was reluctantly given up by the Chamber, and tha Plate was delivered by the Secretary, with the following letter from the Chairman : " Newcastle, sth November, 1825. " CHARLES OGLE, Esq. " SIR—I am directed by the Chamber of Commerce to re quest your acceptance of the Vase which will be prey anted, to. gether with this letter, by their Secretary, Air. Winch, as a mark of the esteem in which they held your character as a public officer, during the period in which you filled the situa tion of Collector of his Alajesty's Customs at this tort ; and also to express their regret that the state of your health should have rendered it expedient that this testimony of their regard should be presented in a private rather than in a public man. ner. Permit me, however, most respectfully to assure you, that this mark of public approbation is not deemed to be at all commensurate with the high estimation in which your pubic conduct is generally viewed ; and that the delicate and gentle manly feeling always manifested in the discharge of the great outlines of your official duties, has been duly appreciated, and will never be forgotten by the Gentlemen whom I have the honour to represent. Permit me, Sir, to eni brace this oppor tunity of wishing you, together with the speedy re-establish. ment of your health, the possession of every happiness an honourable retirement can afford. " I have the honour to be, " Sir, your humble servant, ANTHONY EASTERBY, " Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce." The Reply was as follows : " SIR—I request you will communicate to the Chamber of Commerce my most grateful thanks for a most splendid Vase presented to me this day, as a mark of their approbation of my public conduct, which I deem inestimable,—it being the spon taneous gift of gentlemen who perfectly know my real character; and to you, Sir, as Chairman, for the very flattering address ac companying it, I tender my very best acknowledgments. " I cannot avail myself of a fitter opportunity, Sir, to express my unqualified opinion of the honourable and correct transac tions of the merchants and Ship Owners of this Port, which, I am confident, is not surpassed by any Port in the United King. dom ; and it is my most ardent wish, that they may ever enjoy that prosperity which they so justly merit. " I beg briefly to add, that I have unremittingly filled the situation I lately relinquished for upwards of 34 years, a great part of which in the most arduous and eventful times; and I now retire as Collector of the Customs of this port only, and most sincerely wish the Chamber of Commerce, and all others con cerned in the Trade of the Tyne, health and happiness. " I have the honour to be, Sir, " Your obliged humble servant, " CHARLES OGLE. " Saville-Place, sth November, 1825. " Anthony Easterby, Esq. Chairman," &c. &c. &c. Notwithstanding the above official communication (says our intelligent Correspondent) we are most happy to understand, that such is the improving state of the health of the late highly respected COLLECTOR, that it is more than probable the Com mercial Body of Newcastle-upon-Tye may yet be gratified by his presence at a grand entertainment which is intended to be given at the Assembly Rooms, in that town, as a valedictory compliment to one who retires from public life, with the ardent good wishes of all classes of the community. A vacancy has occurred in the East India Di rection by the implied resignation of JAMES DANIELL, Esq. That gentleman is out this year by rotation ; but having sold that stock which every Director holds as his qualifiation, it is pre sumed not to be his intention to offer himself under a new qualification at the election in April next. The qualification of a Director is 2,0001. East India Stock, the sale or transfer of which is considered tantamount to-a resignation. Some active canvassing took place in the city on Sa turday, as soon as the event was known. ~ t a~~ ""C^ ANECDOTES, &c. REMARIKABLg DAY. —This day is remarkable as the anniversary of the greatest earthquake ever known in England, 1318 ; of the marriage of Arthur, eldest son of Henry the Seventh, to Princess Catherine of Spain, 1501 ; of the loss of the York Indiaman off Limerick, 1758: and of Dr. Seabury being the first Bishop consecrated in America, 1734. ST. BRlTlus.—Yesterday was the anniversary of St. Britius. He was a monk of the fourth century, and a native of Tours, in France. He was educated under St. Martin, but was idle and proud, and despised the instructions and ad monitions of his tutor. A reformation in his manners having taken place, lie succeeded Martin in his Bishopric, which he enjoyed for thirty-three years. Some slanderous reports being propagated against him, he appealed t o a m i rac l e, an d to t h e fiery ordeal ; but these had no effect upon the people, and he was expelled the city. After an absence of seven years he was recalled through the influence of the Pope, and restored to all his dignities, and he died in the year 444. MONSIEUR SNOOKE.-ThOSO who 'visited Paris during the Consular Government must remember the cele brated Tamboor Major de la Garde, Monsieur Sncoke, of whom tlae following . anecdote may not be much known. March ing through a provincial town at the head of the column, he of course, (or if not himself, his fine laced coat) attracted the notice of all female, as well as male Badauts of the place._ The corps being billeted off, and Monsieur Snooke having de livered his emblem of office, the cane, to an attendant drummer, he was soon surrounded by Messieurs les Badauts. They in vited him to accompany them to an adjacent We': pour Loire, ich he declined, never drinking, as he assured them, any spirituous liquors, (so contrary to the habits and customs of his brother Majors of Britain); but, to soften the refusal, he crnsented to accept zinc denri tasse de Cafe ! Whilst sipping the oriental restorative, he favoured the company with the fol lowing brief biography of himself modestly, something after the manner of Othello—which was elicited by the observation made by one of the company, that Monsieur le Major, being but' Drum-Major, h a d n o t b een t reate d w i t h that justice which a man of his standing deserved. (Monsieur Snooke was six feet four inches high) Helas Messieurs que voidez sous!—tout le monde ne gagne pas le gros lot. Yet must I not complain, for I held in the early part of the revolution a Captain's Commission in a regiment of the line. Mais me: camarodes etoient des gene absolument Sims education.

Sunem.crry OF FARSIERS•—One of those idlers who live by their wits upon the simplicity of the Farmers who frequent Smithfield, went to an inn, where he saw a farmer with a tankard of mulled wine. He entered into conversation with him, boasted of the many extraordinary things he could do, and among others . declared he could drink exactly a wine glass full out of any tankard. The Farmer expressed some doubts; when to prove it, the fellow said, " I do not like to bet much, but I will lay you a penny Ido it." The wager was accepted. The fellow swallowed the whole contents of the tankard, then coolly said to his dupe, " I own, Sir, I have lost the waget, here is my penny." Mr. CunttAN, cross-examining a horse-jock ey's servant, asked his master's age. " I never put my hand in his mouth to try," answered the fellow. The laugh was against Curran, till he wittily retorted. " You did perfectly right, friend, for yo'ir master is said to be a great bite." HUNTING INTELLIGENCE. MEETINGS OF MOITNDS IN TILE PRESENT WEEK. His Majesty's Stag- Hounds, on Wednesday, at Princes Risborough ; Friday, at Bracknall.

Warwickshire Bunt.--Mr. Hay's hounds, on Tuesday, at Snitterfield ; Thursday, at Avon Dasset ; Saturday, at Comp ton Verney Bridge. It is not correct, as has been stated, that Mrs. MARIA GRAISAM (who came home in the Borodino) was some time in tile household service of the Empress of Brazils, and that she was at length dismissed from 'religious jealousy. That lady was only t en days in the palace; and it was a political, not a religious feeling, which deprived the Royal family of her in valuable services as an instructress. The Brazilians view every foreigner within the palace walls (even the Empress herself) with a jealous eye, and most particularly so, one who has the talent of so accurately describing passing events, and of which she may here a ft e r anise to make use f or the public good.—(Hampshire Telegraph.) We shall afford much pleasure in stating, that Sir Cam: LEs PAGET was sufficiently recovered yesterday from his alarming accident, to be removed from Sir Ge, Martin's house (in the Admiral's carriage), to his seat at Fair Oak. We are happy to hear that his knee joint was not broken, but received only a severe injury • and that the pain in his chest is removed. Dr. Gladstone, oeGreenwich Hospital, who served with Sir Charles many years since, in his Majesty's ship Brilliant, left the hospital on hearing of the accident, to render his services, and has proceeded on to Fair Oak Lodge with his highly esteemed former Commander.—(Portsmouth Paper of Saturday. ) Immo vEm ENTs.—T he Gazette ofSaturday con. tains a notice of the intention of the Commissionirs of Woods and Forests to apply for a Bill, in the ensuing Session of Par liament, empowering them to follow up their original plan for the Western improvements, by continuing the street called Pall-Mall East to St. Martin's church ; also to widen the com munication between Craven-street, in the Strand, and Cock spur-street. Thus widening tile west or narrow end of the Strand to the south front of the New Union Club-house by tak ing down one Golden Cross, and all the houses in that line to St. Martin's-lane. Streets are also to be formed on the north and south sides of St. Martin's Church, till they intersect the Strand as far as the north end of Villiers -street; thus removing a low, disgusting neighbourhood from the back of the north side of the Strand. St. Martin's-lane is to be widened as far as Chandos-street and Hemming's.row. It is to be hoped the whole of the former street will be swept away.— It is intended to fbrrn the present Charing-cross into a square; and a new street is to run through Spring-gardens to Whitehall, by taking away Buckingham -court. Downing street and square are to be improved, by taking down the south side as far as Fludyer-street; and King-street, St. James's, is to he opened into St. James's-street. WIN . CHESTER, Nov. 12.—The Lord Bishop of Winchester has st• ongly recommended the resumption of the evening ser vice, in the Church of Christchurch, which had been discon tinued, and has hin - melf subscribed liberally towards the ex pence of lighting the ch itch ffr that purpose. We are happy to add, that the pious recommendation of his Lordship is to be carried into effect forthwith. The Bishops of Bath and Wells and of Chichester, have, it is said, required two services to be performed on Sundays, in every parish in their dioceses, where the population amounts to 500 persons; and we under stand that the Bishop of Winchester intends to require the like services in his diocese. THE GLORIOUS UNCERTAINTY OF TUE LAW. —On Friday evening last the Judges' Chambers at Sergeants' Inn were unusually crowded, there being no less than 400 causes of common bail filed, which occupied the Judges' Clerks until some hours after midnight. This is a promising symptom of swelling the London Gazette, and the purlieus of BANCO REGIS. SURREY THEATRE.—By an Advertisement, in another part of this Paper, we perceive that Mr. VALE is about to gratify his friends at the Surrey to-morrow evening with four different branches of the Drama. Without the aid of an ugly face, a sepulchral intonation, or distorted grimace, Mr. VALE is one of the best low Comedians on the Stage : his Caddy, in the musical Farce of the Colonel's Come, is a piece of comic acting that should remove him to higher scenes, where his presence is a consideration most devoutly to be wished ; we therefore anticipate an overflowing bomber and lots of merry faces to accompany the finale.

SHIP LAuNcti.---On Saturday afternoon, exactly at ten mi nutes past two, the new East India ship Abercrombie Robinson, (so named in honour of the Deputy Chairman of the Board of Directors) was launched at Messrs. Wigram and Green's yard, Blackwall. The fineness of the day attracted a great number of Ladies and Gentlemen to the spot ; and the scene was truly delightful animating, when the immense structure moved with apparent grace from the dock into the river, amid the cheers of the assembled spectators, and the lively strains of an excellent band of music provided for the occasion. This vessel, which is by measurement between 1,300 and 1,400 tons, and conse quently will be able to carry 1,500, is designed for Bombay and China, under the command of Captain Jones. Shortly after the launch, a large party of friends of the owner and builders were entertained with an elegant collation ; when " Success to the Abercrombie Robinson," " Henry Bonham, Esq. the ship's husband." " The Directors of the Hon. East India Company," and several other appropriate toasts were proposed and drank with great enthusiasm. The Abercrombie Robinson is of exactly the same size as the Edinburgh, which was launched on Wed nesday : and perhaps it is an unprecedented event in the annals of ship-building, that two such magnificent vessels, belonging the same owner, and built in the saute yard, should be launched in one and the same week.

THE LONDON.JOURN.ALS. DAILY Extracts from the Morrie g Papers, N 6.1). 14 , 1825. [THE TIM CS.I The presentation of Mr. IftlRT Ano at Court, on Friday last, completes our alfiance with the South American States, and severs for ever' the chain of dominion which hound them to . the Spanish Monarchy. The arms of " our kingdom of America and the Indies" may be emblazoned for some time longer in tire escutcheon of Castile, but they will imply as little real authority, as the lilies of France latelv did in the shield of England. A new State has been brought within the system of European diplomacy ; and whether it crosses the path of the old Courts, or revolves, without disturbance, in a concentric orbit, its se parate existence and independent movement are *r. equally assured. We are not informed whether any Spanish Envoy appeared at Carlton Palace on Friday, nor is there, we believe, one in Lon. don; but had Ferdinand been able to obtain a little more of our money to buy the Court dresses, and to support the diplomatic charges of such an agent, it must have been very amusing for him to have met a Minister for Colombia in the ante-chamber, or to have seen his gracious reception in the Royal State-room. Though, strictly speaking, the presentation of M r. Hortado at Court only crowns the recognition . of one of the new Republics, it establishes the in dependent rights, and decides on the separate existence of the whole. Questions of minor im portance may remain to be settled between us and some of them—accidental circumstances may accelerate or retard the arrival of political en voys, but the great measure of acknowledgment, so far as principle is concerned, is now complete, and Mexico, Buenos-Ayres, Chile, and Braiil, may enjoy as soon as they please the privileges of Colombia. The Ministers of the Holy Alliance are thus not only compelled to learn the galling truth, that we have sanctioned American revolt by our avowed friendship and pledged support, but are condemned to meet on equal terms in official circles, and even in the Royal presence s the diplomatic agents of those States whom they still dare to represent as ,bodies of insurgents or desire to punish as bands of traitors. Such a condition of things cannot last long. The cor dial alliance of the North American United. States and of Great Britain with these Republics must for ever annihilate all apprehension of dan ger from the Continent of Europe ; and the Congress of Panama will set them equally at ease respecting any renewed attack, either of diplo macy or arms on the part of Spain. We may therefore expect, in the course of the next twelve months, that the members of the Holy Alliance, seeing that a political abstraction can no longer be maintained against a pcsitive fact, will hasten to avail themselves of those commercial arlial. tages to which we have been admitted long ago by the practical wisdom and liberal spirit of our Government. —We cannot conclude these very general remarks without congratulating Mr. Canning on his being master of the ceremonies at this new reception ; and if we feel any regret, it is - only that this •is the first instead of being the second time of his appearance in that character. • Buenos-Ayres, as being the first-born of Arrn•rienn inde pendence, ought to have taken precedence a Colombia in British recognition ; and this Pro bably would have been the case, had not a bon, mot occurred to the witty mind of our Foreign Secretary, about " half an Ambassador," as ap plicable to Mr. Rivadavia, who was at the same time acknowledged a whole plenipotenjiary, and Who, as such, had subscribed a whale name W a whole treaty a few days before, by the side of the signature of the Right lion. Gentleman him. self. Mr. Canning will forgive us for re-minding him, that the friendship of a nation is of more value than the joke of a Minister, however good. [THE PUBLIC LE-DGEIId According to an On dit in a Paris Paper, of Friday, one of the very first proceedings of the Spanish Government, after the dismissal of M. Zea Bermudez, was the resumption of the old and frantic scheme for the re-conquest of its ci (levant Colonies in America. According to an other rumour from the same source, a Spanish Officer of rank had, on his return from a diplo matic mission to the French capital, passed through Bourdeaux on his way to Spain, where he expected to be appointed to the command of the expedition, which sailed some time since from Ferrol for the Havannah. In this account the numerical strength of the armament is esti mated as high as twelve thousand men ; and if the rest of the statement be,equally-ac. curate, it deserves a conspicuous place amongst, the recent official notes of the Court of Madrid on the subject of South America. The sum of 90 millions of reels (about 900,0001. sterling) is also said to have been placed at the dispostri of the new Commander; but how so large a.surn has been raised is discreetly omitted. We are further assured that the ultimate destination of the troops is Mexico, and that the most sanguine expectations of success are entertained in conse.. quence of the disaffection pervading Mexico, to the new order of things. That the people of that country are excessively discontented with their present lot, will be very readily believed, when it is considered that it is an exchange for , the tutelary dominion of Spain and the paternal. rule of her Monarch. In the annals of the world; it would be difficult to find an instance of greater mildness and liberality than the Colonial po licy of Old Spain ; and it will be therefore easily credited that the late Colonies are literally dying with impatience to see it re-esta blished, What is a free trade, with an unre stricted intercourse with the rest of the world, to the honour being reckoned amongst the vassals of that paragon of Sovereigns, the present King of Spain I The additional enjoyment of independ ence, based upon principles of liberty, is abso lutely worthless, compared to the blessings of every kind that had flowed in upon the inhabir tants of South America, during the three cenl . turies that they enjoyed Spanish protection. - Therefore the project of _replacing them in their
