EXPRESS FROM PARIS. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) No branch of productive industry in this country is in a more unsatisfactory state than the glass manufacture. The new Administration (Ls ryes, at least, the praise of having had the sagacity to discover the unsound footing on which it stands. With all the materials for glass. making, kelp, sand, clay, and fuel, in an abundance, and at a price unknown to other countries, we do not supply other countries with glass ; we cannot even supply our own market with glass of the same description. The cause of this manufacture not having kept pace with the other manufactures of the country is the excessive Excise duty. Glass pays about 300 per cent. of its value as duty. The capital required to pay this enormous duty, every six weekl, is so much beyond the ordinary manufarturini: capitals of the country, that, in point of fact, the few ca pitalists who are engaged in glass-making enjoy as com plete a monopoly, as if they held an exclusive patent for the manufacture. It will scarcely be believed by the public that there are but seventeen crown glass manufac t trers to the seventeen millions of inhabitants of Great Bti'ain. Mr. Attwood, who is, if we mistake not, one of the seventeen, very justly observed in the House of Com mons, that those who pay the Excise duty to Government have expressed no dissatisfaction at the state of the glass trade. It would have been very wonderful if they had . ; it being precisely the amount of the ditty which preserves their monopoly of it. If the glass duty were repealed, we would not, as at present, have to import some kinds of glass, such as cheap glass, of a size suitable for shop win dows, from our want of skill to manufacture what would suit even our own market. Our seventeen glass manufac turing establishments, having each its own district to sup ply without any fear of competition, have no object in im proving the manufacture, in seeking new markets, in ap plying the material of glass to new purposes. They enjoy a good easy hereditary trade. They are, as Mr. Attwood says, well contented to advance a duty which the public ultimately pays, and which keeps the manufacture in the same state as it stood in half a century ago. But Mr. Attwood and that sagacious friend of the people, Mr. Hunt, appear to have forgotten altogether that there are probably sixty thousand labourers in kelp in Ireland and Scotland, who would find employment if the Excise duty on glass did not prevent the manufacture of that article from being carried to the extent of which it is susceptible. Free trade is all that these people ask. With alkali for glass making incomparably cheaper than potash, with which foreign gl tss is made, with coals instead of wood for fuel, these kelp-makers say, every pane of glass in Europe would be of British manufacture, if the manufacture were thrown open to the ordinary manufacturing skill and capitals of our manufacturers. They say that the purposes to which glass would he applied, if no duty existed to limit the strength and thickness of the material, are not even known ; that for conveying water, gas, and many other pur poses, glass would he used instead of metal. The export trade at present is very trifling. The seventeen can not make glass to suit the foreign market. Why should they ? The home market is just sufficient for all the glass they make. They are not driven like other manu facturers to seek for new markets. If we had only seventeen iron-founderies or seventeen cotton factories in Great Britain, by the operation of a heavy Excise duty of 300 per cent. upon the value of iron, or of cotton goods, these branches of industry would be in the same state as the glass manufacture. The iron-master or the cotton manufacturer would certainly not complain of the duty which secured him from all competition. The country would have a right to com plain. The country does now complain that an easy ma nufacture, fur which we possess every material in the ut most abundance, and which perhaps next to the useful metals enters most largely into all the uses of civilized life, is locked up in the hands of seventeen manufac turers; while sixty thousand people engaged in pro viding the principal material of this manufacture, declare that they would find employment and a living, if the free use of this material were granted to the industry and capital of the country. It is impossible to judge from the present state of our glass trade what that trade would be if the cost of sand, clay, coals, and kelp, were the only expense of the manufacture ; and if these materials could he worked by the manufacturer for any purpose or market. Its extent would probably be only exceeded by that of our iron trade. (From the Morning Herald.)

STATE OF THE COUNTRY. (From the West Briton.) We regret to have to state that symptoms of discontent have been manifested by the miners in different parts of the county, in consequence of the shipment of corn for the eastern ports. The last harvest in Cornwall was in many parts abundant, and on the whole was a fair average crop; it was also saved in general in excellent condition. That this was not the case in some parts of the kingdom there is too much reason to believe, and the superior quality and abundance acorn here have naturally attracted the attention of the corn-factors, who have bee❑ purchasing and ship ping grain at the different ports. The consequence has been that the farmers finding that they could readily dispose of their corn in large quantities to the factors, have done so ; the markets are no longer so fully supplied as before, and the difficulty of obtaining small quantities of grain has become a source of complaint to persons, who, disliking to purchase flour of the importers, conceive they see in the shipment of grain the cause of the inconvenience they experience ; not considering that in a commercial country, like this, it is impossible a scarcity should be ex perienced in one part, whilst another enjoyed abundance ; or that prices in different districts can, on the whole, vary much beyond the expense of conveyance and a fair profit to the dealer. From the causes just stated, a body of stream-tinners, from Luxullian, Roche, and the adjoining parishes, collected on Friday last, and proceeded to Wade bi idge and Padstow, where shipments of corn were being male for Plymouth and other parts of the kingdom. The poor men conducted themselves in a more orderly manner than could have been expected ; they were met by the Magistrates and some gentlemen of the neighbourhood, who mildly but firmly remonstrated with them on the folly and dangerous consequences of their conduct, and succeeded in inducing them to return without offering any violence to those engaged in shipping the corn. We ab stain from saying more on the subject at present. On Tuesday last, about 300 miners of St. Just entered Penzance in a body, and proceeded to the quay there, for the purpose of preventing the exportation of a quantity of barley then in the course of shipment by Messrs. Bran well and sons. The two resident Magistrates of the town, Robert Richards and Edward Collins Giddy, Esqrs. with several of the inhabitants, repaired to the quay, when they found that the shippers had promised they would not export the corn, which was accordingly taken hack to the warehouses, This measure completely satisfied the miners, and they returned at once to their homes. The Rev. AUGUSTUS FITZCLARENCE, Of Mapledurharn, Berks, unsolicited by his parishioners, has reduced his tithes 10 per cent. The charities of this be nevolent gentleman to the poor throughout the winter love been most extensive. We understand that the Duke of NEWCASTLE, as Lord Lieutenant of the county, has resolved not to add the names of any Clergymen to the new Commission of the Peace. We must express our approbation of his Grace's disinclination to Clerical Justices.—Nottingham Review. MINERAL FAT.—Last week, in a piece of iron mine at Merthyr, called " Blackpin," some men dis covered a species of fat substance, resembling candle grease, which has caused great speculation among the miners in that neighbourhood. When thrown into the fire it melts and flames, like any other oily matter. We are not suffi ciently skilled in mineralogy to say whether this be an en tirely new discovery or net. The oldest and most expe rienced miners at Merthyr have never before met with any thing of the kind.--Monmouthshire Merlin. A BAD OPINION OF ONESELF.—_A boy who had been brought up in a log-house in Ohio, which of course was not much encumbered with useless furni ture, was one day sent on an errand to a neighbour's house, where several articles of more fashionable furniture had just been received from the Eastward, and among other things a looking-glass, which was suspended oppo site the door. The boy had never before seen his own face, and when on entering the house, the first object which presented itself was a dirty-looking face, surrounded by long, yellow, shaggy hair , &c. he was so affrighted that, without ceremony, he ran home as fast as his legs co u ld carry him, exclaiming—" Daddy , daddy,-1 ve seen the devil !"—American Paper. GERMAN PAPERS. ITALIAN SWITZERLAND. FEB. I l.—We have laying before us a letter dated Bologna, Feb 8, which gives the a . Mowing details of serious disturbances in that city : " For some weeks a fermentation in people's minds had been observed, which was kept up by proclamations se cretly distributed by meetings in the coffee-houses, &c. The absence of the Archbishop, who was at the con clave at Rome. and the smallness of the garrison, of not more than 700 infantry and SO cavalry, in a city with 70,000 inhabitants, seemed' to encourage the agitation. On the 4th a report was spread that Modena was in a state of complete insurrection, and that the citizens were fight ing with the soldiers. When the mail, which arrived to wards the evening, confirmed the report, the conspiracy broke out here. A great number of young men assem bled in the coffee-houses : several speakers addressed them, and especially exhorted them not to stain their arms with useless murders. The young men took an oath to this effect, and engaged to risk every thing for the freedom of Italy. The Pro-Legate hastily assembled the principal nobility and the most eminent citizens, to de liberate with them on the danger that threatened. While he was deliberating with them, about midnight, the young men advanced in arms towards the Palace. The terrified Pro-Legate had already given orders to the little garrison to remain passive, from a fear that military aid would be of no avail, as the conspiracy was so widely extended. The young men, who were prepared far a serious resistance, did not find even a sentinel on duty at the Palace. They hereupon required the Pro-Legate to sign a paper, by which he resigned the administration to a Provisional Govern ment. He at first refused, but the increasing tumult with out doors, and the threat to throw him out of the window if he persisted in his refusal, soon obliged him to yield to the demands of the insurgents. By this document all the troops of the legation w, re placed under the Provisional Government. On the following day (February 5), the Pro-Legate and the dismissed Colonel of the troops of the line set out with an escort to Florence. In all these transactions not a single drop of blood was spilt. On the sth, early in the morning, the courier arrived from Roisse with the news of the elec tion of the Pope ; he was quite astonished to find the city illuminated, and the citizens rejoicing in the streets, till it was explained to him what all this meant. Ile had the more reason to be surprised, as the Archbishop had affirmed at Rome that he would be answerable for his flock. It is added in a postscript :—" We have just learned that Romagna Ferrara, and the march of Ancona, had followed the example of Bologna. The Duke of Modena has left his duchy. It is said here that an insurrection is expected to take place to-morrow in Parma and Piacenza." WARSAW, FEB. 7.—The day before yesterday the Russians passed the frontiers at five places, Uscilerg, Brzesc, Granoe, Tykocin, and Augusto. Hitherto there are only Cossacks who mark the movements of the army; only at Uscilerg some dragoons have entered, be longing to the corps of General Giesmar; his design seems to be to invest Zarnosc, and to advance into the plain country beyond the Vistula. The Russi in main army advances on the line from Lomza and 13: vase. Up to this time there if, no account of any fighting, for there were no troops on any part of the frontier. The first out posts of our army are three leagues from Siedlce towatels Brzesc, and on the line towards Louisa they are at Os trohnka. M. Schmidt, the Prussian Consul, asked for passports to leave the city as soon as he learnt that the Russians had entered the kingdom. M. Barzvkowski, a member of the National Government, and Count Gas tavus Malachowski, one of the ministers, go to the army in order to regulate without delay all civil matters. The peasantry fly from the frontiers. The cossacks take from them all their cattle and provisions. More dread is felt here of the diseases which are said to pre vail in the Russian army than of the Russians themselves. They are described as inflammatory fevers which carry off great numbers of men. The hospitals at Grodno, Bialystock, and Luck, are said to be crowded. On the 31st of January many wounded Rus sians were brought to Grodno. It was reported (on what authority I know not) that two regiments had quarrelled, and tired on each other. The cause is said to have been, that it was intended to remove some officers who were supposed to entertain liberal ideas; that the soldiers re sisted this measure, and Count Diebitsch ordered another regiment to bring them to obedience. A great battle is expected by the 12th at farthest. Warsaw will soon lie in a state of siege. The cannon are already placed on the ramparts. It was not believed that Count Diebitsch would enter now, because, if the first attack does not succeed, he incurs great danger, as when the thaw sets in, the ice will disappear, the rivers will overflow, and the low ground in which he acts will become a complete morass. His army advancing against us is about 160,000 men. At present we have to oppose him only 57,000 men in the v field, and the patriotism of our people.

On Wednesday morning, as some persons were taking away the filth from a privy up a yard in the Iron Market, Newcastle, they discovered the body of a fema l e infant, which, when first extracted, seemed fresh, but on being exposed to the atmosphere, quickly exhibited rap id decomposition.

EXTRACT OF A LETTER SENT FROM LONDON, DATED 23D OR 25m OF JANUARY. " It should be repeated every where, that the Powers are arming to re-establish the legitimate Princes ; tha.: ac credited agents of the principal Powers are with King Charles ; that King Charles has taken on himself the guardianship of King Henry, his son. The people must be roused with reports of war; they must be told that they will have neither peace, repose, commerce, nor pro. sperity, until the return of a dynasty which for 15 years catne.l their prosperity and happiness ; they must dwell on the comparison of the state of France before and during the latter revolution ; that they know not vhat engagements the Duke d'Orleans has secretly formed with the King; that he holds power that the factious and turbulent who have overturned the throne and the altar may not seize on it. This will not prevent you from showing at the same time to the real Royalists the horror and indignation which should be inspired by a Prince enriched by the spoils of his legitimate King. Paint to them in their real colours the perfidy of his usurpation. This mode will have the effect of alienating from this Duke the rebels, who will see in him but the traitor ; at the same time, of sustain ing the hopes of the Royalists, without attaching them to the man who cannot long occupy the throne which usurpa tion has given to him. The Liberal journals will serve you wonderfully. " The conduct of the clergy is not whai it ought to be after such benefits ; its action appears paralyzed ; it is de sirable that it should oppose a resistance more general and more firm to the new Powers—that secret conferences shculd be employed to show the odium of this usurpation. Religion is lost if legitimate sovereigns perish. The clergy will be almost destitute of those benefits which it received from the munificence of the King. Do not fear to employ republican ideas to undermine the intrusive Government—good will result from the abuse of these ideas. France unwilling to have a re public, Europe proscribing it, there can be no danger in our employing them against this new monarchy. it that can destroy it is excellent. Even the agitators work for us. Leave them to re-create, or rather cr::ate, a party for Napoleon 11. We know that Austria will never give him up. It is an excellent mode of attack. The affairs of Belgium will necessarily lead to a catastrophe : we must be ready to profit by it. The Government of the King has rallied so many interests, that it is impossible but that a re-action must take place when the question shall be on the point of being solved. 46 Every exertion must be made to dissolve the Na tional Guard. Use must be maths of the wearisome ness inspired by the perpetuity of this service, and the expenses it imposes, and the fea:. it excites of being carried from their homes. No disquiet need be entertained as re gards the army. " Above all, care must be taken to represent every thing now existing as only provisional. D'Orleans has with him neither the Foreign Powers—nor the Royalists—nor the Republicans —nor the multitude. " Establish the belief that nothing is finished—let the South fancy the North in insurrection—let the North be lieve the South insurgent. The Journals that have been paid by the King must still serve him. Act more openly, inasmuch as is possible, without compromise. If the nation believe in the stability of this new order of things, all would be lost. Act! act ! you will be lost by inaction!' , (Correspondence of the Messager.) 4‘ ST.

His reply was, that he would then be in his place. Consequently, there he was, and quite ready for the discussion. THE WICKLOW UNION. Lord KING would bring under entice the report made by the Archbishop of Dublin to the Lord Lieutenant and Privy Council, in order to obtain their sanction to the great union of Wicklow. No one could dispute that the union of many parishes into one benefice was a great abuse, and ought never to be unnecessarily allowed.— When six, seven, eight, or ten benefices were joined in one union, the number of resident gentlemen was curtailed, and the only defence of the large revenue of the Established Church was destroyed. Looking to the account of the number of parishes and incumbents in Ireland, lie found that 2450 parishes were united in such a manner that they possessed only '7OO resident Clergymen,—brine, not a third ; 1701 parishes were consolidated in 517 unions. These may be called the Irish Consols. There were only 741 parishes with single residents. The unions conti nued only during the lives of the incumbents. On the death of the incumbent the parishes could net be again nnited without the authority of the Bishop, superintended by the Lord Lieutenant and Privy Council, to whom the Bishop must submit his reasons. The union of 'Wick - low coesisted of six parishes. He was far front saying that it was the greatest abuse of the kind. There weic many unions of ten parishes ; one of no fewer than thir teen. That might be called the magnum bonum or tl e summum bonum of the Irish . Churches. In the diocese of Clonfert, according to the returns made in 1824, there was not a single instance of a parish held by a separate in cumbent. Every benefice in that diocese was a union ; and the reason was that in that diocese the ancient custom of the quatuor pars rem tined : that was, the Bishop had a fourth of all the tithes in the diocese. la that diocese the old usage remained of appropriating a fourth of the tithes to the Bishop, a fourth to the poor, a fourth to the incumbent, and a fourth to the Church. The consequence was, that the unions in the diocese of Clonfert were not so frequently disunited as they might be; because it was evident that it must he much more agreeable for the Bishop to receive his quatuor pars front a small number of wealthy incumbents than from a larger number of poorer ones. In the diocese of Killaloo, in 136 parishes, there were only 44 shepherds. In the dio cese of Dublin there were 60 single parishes, and 97 pa rishes in 25 unions. He now came to the particular union of Wicklow. By the clause of the Act of the 7th and Bth George IV., the diocesan, when he wishes to unite several parishes, was compelled, within fourteen days of his making an order for that purpose, to report to the Lord Lieutenant and Privy Council, and to give his rea sons for what he had done: and if those reasons were dis proved by the Lord Lieutenant and Privy Council, the order became void at once. The Noble Lord proceeded to read the report which the Archbishop of Dublin made respecting the union of Wicklow, and to point out the statements in that report which he (Lord King) bad the means of contradicting. In the first place, the Arch bishop spoke of the Vicar of Wicklow, the Rector of Drumkeel, and the Vicar of Kilpool. Now there was no Vicar of Wicklow. There was no parish of Wick low. The town of Wicklow was built in two pa rishes. The Archbishop stated, that the income which the union would produce, would be—from the parish of Wicklow, '787/. ; from the psi ish of Drumkeel, 69/. ; from the parish of Kilpool, 501.—making together 909/. Now Archdeacon Magee, in stating the revenue of the whole union as the ground of a composition, estimated it at 2,255/., besides the additional value of the glebe laud ; making altogether 2,5001. The Archbishop statesi the whole extent of the union to be 17,200 acres, great part of which, he said, was far from Wicklow—nrountain, moss, and barren heath, and thinly populated. The fact, however, was, that the union contained 22,000 Irish, or 36,000 stature acres ; that it was thirt- en miles long from north to south, and nine miles wide ; and that the po; ula tion was great, especially near the county town, which contained from 3to 4,000 inhabitants. Upon the whole, the union contained not less than 13,000 souls; of whom a considerable proportion were Protestants. The Archbishop stated, that there were churches and chapels of ease suffi cient, and that the remotest part of Kilpool was not more than a mile from one of them. The tact was, that it was three miles and a half Irish, or four miles and a half En glish. Then the most Rev. Prelate stated that the pa rishes of Drumkeel and Kilpool would not together afford a sufficient income to a resident clergyman independent of the union with the vicarage of Wicklow ; but the tithes of the one amounted to 2891. a year, and the revenues of the two together would amount to the sum of 395/. lls. 3d. —a sum twice as large as that stated by a Right Rev. Pre late the other day as the average income of Fetglish liv ings. Was not that sufficient for an Irish rector ? This:: contradictions, their Lordships would observe, related to the state of the revenues of the livings in one and the same year. There was no alteration in the rates. The report was presented to the Duke of Northumberland and the Privy Council, and related to one year. And it would be observed, that this union took place in a populous parish, and one in which there was a great number of Protestants, and the rectorial tithes amounted to 1,6,10/. The fortunate person holding these united parishes wss a near relation to the most Rev. Prelate, and the sait;e was Rector of the parish of St. John, Dublin, and u Prebend of St. Patrick's. He did not mean to enter upon the ch ch yatel disputes which the Rev. Gentleinarm had e ith his parishioners, in which he sent them anywhere rather than to Heaven. This was for time purpose of making them pay their tithes, and be believed he dill make them pay them. This union of Wicklow, it appeared, was to be an nexed in commendam to the Stall of St. Patrick's. It was highly proper that this union of parishes should be dissolved, and he was content that it should be done by the Irish Churchmen themselme s, and in the way most agree able to them. But it ought to be done in some way, anti if not otherwise done, it would be proper to address the Crown to do it. He move.] for a copy of the report in ide by the Archbishop of Dublin to the Duke of 'Northumber land and the Privy Council, on the subject of the uniting of the living of Wicklow, and the two adjeinine iiiinge of Drumkeel and Kilpool, with a view to its king 1,61 on the table of the House. The Archbishop of DUBLIN did not mean to oppow the motion, but the Noble Baron ought to be aware that he was not answeralAe for many of these u nio,s. Wiek:ow ,r*~
