A detachment of the 95th regiment embarked this morning, in the Egginton, Lieut. J. S. Godden, for Malta. The Baltic Mer chant, Lieut. - Henry Tucker,' with provisions and naval stores for the South American squadron, will sail from Deptford about the 25th instant, for Rio Janeiro. The Duke of York, Mown, arrived on Thursday, and sailed again, with passengers for Lisbon, Cadiz, and Gibraltar. The Sir Thomas Munro, Crockley, for the Cape of Good Hope, Manilla, and China, .is detained at the Mothcrbank by contrary winds. The Tyne, 28, Capt. J. K.

The Victor will take out detachmenti for the ships on the West India station.—llampshire Telegraph. EXPJRIMENTAL SQUADRON. PORTSMOUTH, OCT. 20.—Yesterday the experi mental squadron, under the command of Rear-Adm. Sir Thomas Hardy, returned to this port, from their third and last cruise, except the Tyne, which ship could not rejoin the squadron. The squadron left St. Helene on the 24th of September, but returned in the evening. They weighed again on the 25th, and stood out to sea. On each occasion the wind was moderate. Of the 28's, the Sapphire and Tyne beat the Challenger: the Columbine was superior to the rest of the squadron. We cannot, however, place much importance on these days, as tides may have favoured one ship, and not another. We, however, thought it necessary to mention them, inasmuch as these were the only occasions on which the Tyne was present with the squadron. Acorn weathered the Satellite a quarter of a mile, Challenger and Wolf a mile, Alert five or six miles. Friday, Oct. 5. —Sailing two points free, under all possible sail.— columbine beat the Sapphire one mile, Satellite mile and a half, Alert and Wolf two miles, Challenger and Acorn two miles and a quarter. Saturday, Oct. G.--Close hauled, a calm, with occasi ona l light winds.—Columbine and Challenger weathered the Wolf, Satellite, and Acorn, one-third of a mile, Sapphire two-thirds of a mile, Alert one m il e . Monday, October B.—Close hauled, half a- gale, with a heavy sea. The Acorn and Sapphi re , w h en against the bead sea, beat all the squadron; but on the other tack, when the wind lightened, and changed so as to bring the ship's stern more tq the wind Ward, Columbine weathered the Satellite half mile, Acorn two-thirds of amile, Sapphire a mile and a quarter, Challenger a mile and three-quarters, Wolf and Alert four miles. Wednesday, October W.—, Close hauled, half a gale, with a head sea. The trial unexpectedly terminated, from the Challenger carrying away her main-topmast in tacking. While it continued, the Sapphire, Challenger, Columbine, Acorn, and Satellite were nearly equal; but the Woff, and Alert were inferior to them. Tuesday, October I6.—Close hauled, half a gale, with a head sea. During the trial the weather became so thick, that we cannot speak with certainty as to the result. 'However, the Satellite made signal that she wea thered the Columbine half a mile, and the Acorn that she weathered the Satellite three quench of a mile. Before the weather became so thick, these ships had beaten the Sapphire considerably : the Alert and Wolf were hull down to leeward. The Challenger sprung her fore-yard, and is, therefore, not included in the trial. Previous to this accident, she was beaten by the Columbine, Sapphire, and Satellite. 1 From the behaviour of the ships when stowed for foreign service, it was evident that among the 28-1 gun frigates, the Sapphire had decidedly the advan tage over the Challenger. Among the corvettes, the Acorn, Satellite, and Columbine, were equally su perior to the Wolf and Alert. It is evidently un fair to expect that the 28's should beat the corvettes, on account of the additional deck and carronades, with their top hamper. We are only surprised that they should have beaten them on any occasion- ex cept sailing free. We all know that fighting as well as sailing is an important quality in a man-of-war; it is rather singular that this indispensable quality should be generally overlooked, when dwelling on the efficiency of ships. But as the ships are nearly useless to the country if they are unable to fight their lee and weather guns in heavy weather, we shall briefly allude to this property of the vessels under consideration. - On September the 29th, the Admiral made signal for the squadron to fire their guns; it was blowing very fresh, but not particularly so, as the squadron were carrying top-gallant sails. The Acorn and Satellite fired with comparative ease and might have engaged an enemy if required, even under heavy press of sail. The Alert, Challenger, and Wolf, could not fire with any effect. The Co lumbine and Sapphire were not in company at the time; we cannot, therefore, speak from experience of their, capability of firing in bad weather. Any person, however, at all acquaint e d with th e su bj ec t, must be aware that the Sapphire, from her stiffness, cannot be deficient in this respect, but that the Co ., umbine, althoughvery far from being crank, from the lowness of her ports, which are only three feet from the water, would, in a high sea, very probably fail in this material quality. On the whole, we think it fair to conclude, that the Acorn, Satellite, and of their general qu a liti es as m e n Sapphire, judging of-war, are among the fin es t s hips o f th e i r res p ec ti ve classes in the British N avy , . that the chie f exception against the Columbine, is the lowness of her ports ; and against the Challenger, Tyne, and Wolf, defi ciency in stability.—ifempshire Telegraph. MEETING AT CARLOW.--.011 Thursday a meeting was held in Carlow, for the purpose of establishing a Society in that town, having for its object the furtherance of the Reformation.—Dublin Morning Post. SHEFFIELD AUXILIARY BIBLE SOCIETY. —On Monday, the seventeenth Annual Meeting of the Sheffield Auxiliary Bible Society was held at the National School Room, in Carver -street.

GRATITUDE.--The late Duke of Q--- once asked a tenant how many children he had ? The honest man replied, " I have five, thanks to Heaven and your Grace." FlRE.—Between the hours of ten and eleven o'clock list night, it destructive fire broke out upon the pre mises of a linen-draper, named Calthorpe, No. 42, Angel-terrace, Whiteehapel. The flames raged with an abating fury for a considerable time, till the whole of the place was entlrely'consurned, threatening destruction, to the surrounding houses. The flames at length communicated to the house of Mr. Coombs, oilman ; hut, through the exertions of the firemen and neighbours, their progress was checked. Neither the stock in trade nor the premises were insured. THE ARMY. MILITARY IVIOVEMENTS.-.4THIS DAY.)

Sir Colquhoun Grant made his half-yearly inspection of the 65th Regiment at Naas, on Monday. Tie expressed his a dmiration of the discipline, cleanliness, uniforMity, and very soldier-like appearance of the Regiment : and, in al luding to the rare occurrence of Courts Martial and cor poral punishments, die General highly complimented the soldiers on their extremely good conduct. The 34th Regiment, commanded by colonel Campbell, were minutely inspected on Tuesday, in Galway, by Major- General Taylor. Nothing could exceed the fine soldier like appearance of this highly respectable corps on the oc casion. The Major-General intimated that he was much pleased with their state of discipline, and took the oppor tunity of paying them all those compliments Avhich they so highly deserve. - There are fourteen officers attached to •the depot com panies of the 97th Regiment in Tralee, under Major Patti son. Lieutenant-Colonel Bayly, of the 98th Regiment, commands the garrison. Tuesday, Colonel Fitzclarence reviewed the four com panies of the 7th Fusileers, at Chester. The fine espla nade, in front of the castle,: was the scene of this military spectacle. The Colonel expressed his marked approbation of the excellent order and high state of discipline in which the men appeared. Tuesday morning, the 86th depot, under Major Creagh, left Armagh for Newry. • The depot companies of the 76th Regiment have landed at Cork from Jersey, by the Mentor transport, on route to join head-quarters at Waterford. Much anxiety is evinced by monied military men to get into the 87th Fusileers,• a ml dashing prices are offered for exchanges. The uniform is fixed on, and it will be the most splendid and expensive in the service. The cap is so 'very handsome, that the Grenadier Guards have adopted the same pattern..

CHRONICLES OF THE CANONGATE.—We were surprised on Saturday to find one complete talc from this unpublished work of Sir W. Scott appear in the London Weekly Review ; it certainly is a convincing proof of the superior resources of this new and spirited publication, which cannot fail to insure what it eminently merits—the patronage of the public. BALL AT ENNISKILLEN.--The ball 011 Tuesday was attended by nearly all the rank and beauty of the surrounding country. At one o'clock upwards of a hun dred ladies and gentlemen sat down to a splendid supper, which comprised all the delicacies of the season and the choicest wines. After supper country dances commenced, and the gay scene was kept up till nearly fuur o'clock in the morning. The baud of the 62d Regiment added consider ably to the . enjoyment of the night.—Erne Packet. CHARACTERISTIC.—One day this week as two sailors, just paid off from the Romney, were rolling, half seas over, down Nortlicorner-street, one of them took a lurch, and pushed his elbow through a pane of glass in a grocer's shop. Jack being instantly seized, and half.a crown demanded for the damage, pulled out his locker, well lined with the ready, and tendering a crown piece, coolly smashed in another pane, bawling out " There's five shillings worth you —!"—Devonport Telegraph. In the Report of the Grand Juriat the Devon County Sessions, just ended, occurs the following passage : " It is with pain the Grand Jury have to observe, that they have been refused admission to that part of the Gaol ap propriated to females; and their surprise has been the more excited, from its being reported to them from autho rity, that the exercise of what the Grand Jury conceive to be a duty, would prove an infringement on the rights of visiting Magistrates." What is the meaning of this ex clusion ? Do the " Great Unpaid" suspect that the Grand Jury are going to commit a "second rape of the Sabines ? or are they anxious for a monopoly in their female prisoners ?" The Great Unpaid should look to this. We would also beg respectfully to impress on their attention the following sensible passage from the same Report : " The Grand Jury take the liberty to recommend to the consideration of the Magistrates, the necessity, or at any rate the advantage of separating, as much as possible, the juvenile offender from the snore experienced and hardened culprit."—There are degrees in crime as well as in rank. STATE OF THE COUNTRY.--From the extracts we have given latterly, it must have been ob served that the county of Tipperary is in a very disor ganized state. The Magistrates are to assemble on Satur day next, to devise means for restoring traoquillity. We shall now endeavour to enumerate all the outrages and robberies. Three fellows, who Will be fully identified, have been apprehended fur the murder ot Daniel Mara, and one fur the murder of Flood. TWO parsons of the name of Ryan, and three persons of tit& names Long, Maher, and Breen, have been taken uP by the police of Thueles and Cashel. Results peculiarly gratifying, it seems, are connected with the apprehension of these men. On the night of the 11th instant, a stack of wheat, the property of a farmer of the nanie of Patrick Ryan, of Rossmult, in the Barony of Kilnemana, was destroyed by fire. The incendiaries also set fire to his dwelling-horse and haggard. On the same night, a cock of hay and a stack of oats; the property of Mr. Fogarty, of Cabra, were scattered about the fields. And also on the same night, they effected the burning of an out house belonging to a farmer of the name of White, of Borrisoleigh ; they in - like manner attempted to burn his dwelling-houee.-- Cork Constitution, HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS THE DUKE OF SUSSEX. (FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.) RICISMOND, (Yortx) 20m OCT.—Great prepara tions are making here to receive his Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex, with all becoming honour, and respect. Next Tuesday week, (i. e. on the 29th instant,) the Mayor and. Corporation indulge the hope, that his Royal Highness and suite will honour them with their company to dinner, at the Guildhall. The entertainment will be on a scale of great splen dour and liberality. From Raby Castle, which has been one continued scene of festivity and rejoicing since his Royal Highness arrived at the Noble Marquis's, yesterday week—the Royal Visitor proceeds to Aske-hall, to pay his compliments to Lord Dundas. This visit will take place,-in all probability, about Friday next, the 26th instant. At such a season of gaiety and banqueting, we may well quote the lines of, the Poet : Fill the bright goblet, spread the festive hoard, Summon the gay, the noble, and the fair : Through the loud hail in joyous concert pour'd, Let mirth and music sound the dirge of care." His Royal Highness, we are extremely happy to observe, has all the looks of good health ; and his present. most cordial and warm reception in the North, is apparently a source of great gratification to him. THEATRES. DRURY-LANE. Miss Grant made her second appearance at this theatre on Saturday night as Lucy Bertram, in the opera of " Guy Mannering." She sung the eternal " Rest the babe" with considerable tenderness, so much so as almost to reconcile ua to its five hundredth repetition. Brabant and Miss Paton were both in their element, particularly the latter in her 44 Hur rah! for the bonnets o' blue." The house was well attended. •• COVENT-GARDEN. The great attraction of Saturday night was the appearance of Madame Vestris for the first time this season as Lydia Languish, in Sheridan's " Rivals." She was not, however, well seconded, for Mr. Charles Kemble was absent from indisposition ; and poor Captain Absolute was consequently in a state of absolute torpidity in the hands of Mr. Searle. In the " Hundred Pound Note" she was seen to much better advantage, and had a glorious opportu nity of exhibiting her remarkably pretty legs, as a short-petticoated Bavarian broom-girl. It has been well observed that brevity is the soul of wit; we think it also the soul of a petticoat, for we never be fore saw Madame Vestris dressed to such advantage. Most of her songs were encored. Wrench as Mont morency, vice Jones, acquitted himself to the satis faction of a respectable, but not crowded, audience. WINDSOR, OCT. 21.—This forenoon the KING, with his household attendants, heard Divine Service at the New Chapel Royal. The Rev. Mr. Sitvnroult officiat ed. The KING has not been out from the Royal Lodge since Thursday last, neither has his MAJESTY received any company since that day. If the weather proves favourable this afternoon, it is expected that his MAJESTY will take an airing in the Great Park, after Divine Service. It is now expected that his MAJESTY will pass the whole of the winter at the Royal Lodge. • Notwithstanding, alterations and improvements are carrying on at Cumberland Lodge.

The matches between Young Dutch Sam and Bishop Sharpe, and Barney Aaron and Redmond, will come off on Tuesday next, within fifty miles of St. Paul's; and con siderable bustle prevails in the Betting World in anticipa tion of the result. Sam came to town on Wednesday, preparatory to his benefit on Thursday, and looked better in condition than ever we saw him before. Notwithstandin g this, however, such is the confidence in the Bishop, who continues in close training at Colney, that he has been backed freely at six and seven to four; and these odds are offered to any amount. Many are not a little puzzled that Sam should be held so cheap; and most unquestionably, when we reflect that he has youth, length, and science in his favour, we should have been disposed to think that the odds ought not to be expected. Such is the passion for following a lucky and a brave man, however, that all these matters are set aside ; and, therefore, the Bishop's winning is booked to a certainty. That Bishop is a good and a game .man, no one can doubt; but still lie is not invincible, and we see nothing, in a fair view, of the comparative merits of the men to justify such unequal speculation. Sam, as we have stated, cannot be better than he is ; and he speaks with great confidence of success. We know he is backed by some persons highly respectable in the Sporting World ; and his own interests will urge him to do his beat, and as.: some thecloak of his gallant father. Some say that' he is not yet come to his strength, and that the Bishop's mode of fighting with his left foot foremost will puzzle and con fuse him ; while, if he receives one or two of the Bishop's famed body hits, his constitution is not sufficient to throw it off. This is all good argument, and if the Bishop can plant his favourite hits, no doubt things will look green; but, then, Sam is a good out-fighter, he stands well on his legs, is active, and gets away as well as any man in the Ring; he will be prepared, there fine, to meet the Bishop at all points. All these matters will, no doubt, have passed through the minds of our readers, and all we hope is, that the laurels of victory may adorn the brow of the best man. The Bishop, we hear, is right well ; he takes his exercise with regularity, and is as confident of success as if the battle were over. Experience is certainly in his favour, and it must not be forgotten that ho Liss fought and beat some of ;lie best men of his weight, including Woolwich Burke, Ben Warwick, Gypsey Cooper (four times), Alic Reid, and last, though not least, Toni Gaynor, independent of an infinite number of private battles. Sam has only fought Stockman, Tom Cooper, Gypsey Cooper, and Manchester Davis, all of whom he polished off in very scientific style. Dick Curtis goes in with him on Tuesday. BARNEY AARON and REDMOND fight on the same day. It will be recollected that this is a renewed snatch, for 601. a-side ; both men are well, and Barney is the favourite at II to B, bnt we have not heard much betting. Redmond continues at the Castle, Child's Hill, Hampstead ; and Bar ney at the Coach and Horses, Ilford. • NED NEAL AND JELL BURN.—The second deposit for this important match will be made good to-morrow even ing, at the Rising Sun, Windmill-street. Jem has arrived from Bristol, looks well, and promises to show Ned some sport. Ned is fine health and spirits, and is backed freely at 2 to 1 and 5 to 2, and he offers an even hundred he licks Jem in 50 minutes.. Ned Neal bee fixed his benefit for the day before fighting, and Jem Burn for the day after. The place of fighting will be named at Neal's benefit. BALDWiN AND REUBEN MARTEN. —At the meeting, at Harry Holt's, on Friday evening, it was stated that White headed Boh is willing to kilt Reuben Marten 225/. to 2001. We are authorised to state, that if Bob will fight 2501. to 200/, and not exceed twelve stone in weight, the match can be made without delay, and the money staked to fight in two or three months. SAMISON AND SPENCER.-The second deposit for this light will be made Monday next. The fight /is to take place half-way between Liverpool and Birmingham. GAYNOR, AND JENNINGS, AND JENNINGS AND CLEGG. —Gaynor and Jennings attended at the Castle Tavern on Thursday night, with their money ready, but just as it was about to be staked, Clegg's brother " dropped in," and announced that Clegg was waiting for Jennings at Goren s, to make the match so long talked off. Jennings, thinking Clegg had the beat title to his favours, having won his money before, declined the match with Gaynor, and agreed to fight Clegg ou the 20th November, 50/. to 401. BILL YOUNG AND BILL LAMB.—A match was made between these little trumps on Thursday last, to fight on the 27th November, within 20 miles of London, for ftbl. a side. Two fines, amounting to one pound five shil lings, for assaults upon two females, have been paid to the Worcester Infirmary, by tho Right Iron. and Rev. Lord Aston.— Worcester Journal. ST. JAMES'S PARK.—Dttring, the last week the workmen employed in the Park have enjoyed some high fun at the expence of numerous dandies, who daily annoy them by their prying propensities. The workmen being greatly obstructed by the persons whd are continually getting on tha temporary bridge over the canal, have adopted a plea which has heartily sickened some of them. When they go to dinner at twelve o'clOck, they loown half a-dozen planks in different parts of the bridge, so that it is impossible for any one to cross 'without s t e pping upon ono of them, when the plank slips, and he is instantly accom modated with a cold bath, gratis, finding himself up to the neck in water, amid s t th e roars o f l a ughter from the work men who are a t di nner , an d w h o i n stantly assist the un lucky gentleman out of the wales. From it) " to six per sons each day have been aboet the average number during the week, a n d th e y arc then styled by the workmen free of the bridge. SPIRIT OP THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. We alluded on Saturday to an article in the Quarterly Review, on Agriculture and Rent, which the writer intended, we suppose, as a sort of pleading in behalf of the partizans of the pro hibitory system, and which would do credit to Sir Thomas Lethbridge himself. The writer flounders on, through his three sheets, with a satisfaction with his own lucubrations which is truly edifying, and without having the slightest • suspicion, that his premises and conclusions are perpetually at variance. If the quantity of laud fit for cultivation were unlimited, and all land were of equal fertility, the difference between the manufacture of food and the manufacture of other articles, would amount only to the degree in which the manufacture of food was less sus- ceptible of improvement than other manufac tures. But land is not only limited, but of va rious degrees of .natural fertility ; and as the wants of a community force into cultivation muste x of cultivation poorer and poorer soils, the price of produce per c ience vaotl a ti eorresponding rise, for th e axe tension to poorer soils, yi e lding with equal labour a smaller return than the lands previously in cultivation, can only proceed from an increase in price stilEcient to indemnify the agriculturist. The owners of the land in culti vation claim as their share, under the name of rent, the difference between the expense of la bouring the poorest land which the price in the market allows to be cultivated and that of their respective possessions, varying in amount with their relative fertilities. This theory of rent is an well established as any point can poss sibly be established. It does not of cottrac exclude the. influence of monopoly, for we may suppose an island of equal fertility through out, and densely inhabited, where a high rent would be exacted by the landowners ; nor does it exclude the influence of situation. • A country increasin g in population, while the produce of its other manufactures is continually increasing , in proportion to the labour bestowed, from the in fluence 'Of improvement in the processes, finds the improved processes in the manufacture of food counteracted by the decreasing fe r tility f o the soil, so that the quantity of labour is conti. nually increasing its ratio to the quantity of foot blitained. This is clearly and forcibly stated by Mr. Malthus, in his Inquiry into the Nature and Progress of Rent. " I have no hesitation, then (he says), in affirming, that the reason why the real price of corn is higher and continually rising in countries which are already rich and still ad vancing in prosperity and population, is to be found in the necessity of resorting constantly to poorer land—to machines, which require a greater expenditure to work them—and which, consequently, occasion each fresh addition to the raw produce of the country to be pur c h ase d a t a (Treater cost ;—in short, it is to be found in the important truth, that corn is .sold at the price necessary to yield the actual supply ; and that as the production of this supply becomes more and more difficult the price rises in proportion." Nothing but. an enormously high price of Corn could indemnify the owners of many bare hills in England, as for instance bills in the neighbour ing county of Surrey, torn up by the plough for a scanty crop at a sacrifice of the beautiful sward on them, the growth of hundreds of years, and which centuries will not restore. We do not mean by this to say, that much of the land lately taken into cultivation, was not ac tually as good as much of the land peviously in cultivation, because common rights, operations of draining on a large scale, and a hundred other circumstances might and did prevent the community from having the benefit of excellent land. The Quarterly Reviewer has perplexed hinalf and his readers in a most_ astonishing manner,- with the circumstances to which we have alluded. He sets up all manner, of wind mills, and combats lustily these creations of his own brain as the creation of political econo mists. He has given, for instance, a long ramb ling history of agricultural improvements, to prove that additional cultivation has not always been attended with a proportionably diminished return ; as if any one writer ever thought of denying the influence of improved processes, or well-contrived works, such as the operations in Lincolnshire, &c., in counteracting, as far as they go, the rise in the cost of producing food. " The owners and occupiers of land (says the Reviewer) are induced to look upon the manu facturers of this country as a body which endea vours to deprive them of the fair returns, which they are entitled to derive from the cultivation of the soil ; while the latter, in their turn, are taught to view the former as a greedy and insa tiable class, eager to rob them of the profits which they have a right to expect from their ca pital. The corn-grower and cotton-spinner are thus, in too many instances, trained to regard each other, if not as enemies who should be annihilated, at least as rivals who ought to be watched, and if possible circumvented. Nothing, however, can, in truth, be more unreasonable than the jealousy thus excited between two classes, whose interests, when correctly viewed, will be found knit together in bonds that cannot be severed, without serious injury to both.. . It will not, we think, prove impracticable to convince every inquirer, whose mind is not enslaved by the most invincible prejudices, that whether we refer to the extent of the ca pital embarked in agriculture, or to the produc tive character of the labour employed in tillage, the cultivation of the soil is more important to the community at large, than the most ingenious operation& of the manufacturer, or the most and ccssful speculations of the merchant. From the way in which these matters are sometimes treated, it might be imagined that manufactures are ill thernselyes productive ; that they make an addi tion to the quantity of food required for the str port of the population of any country. We sho uld have thought that even a child might perceive the absurdity of such a notion. The ,a pplication of the most ingenious machinery ever invented by . the art of man to the fabrication of cotton or cloth, never can by any possibility add one grain to the quantity of corn 'grown upon an acre of land : its effect is merely to enable the owner of agricultural produce to . fabricate a given quantity, of wrought commodities, with ()sites a smaller con sumption of corn and beef. No proposition can . we think, be clearer than that the fruits and ve getable productions of the earth constitute the fundamental riches of any country; and that all States owe infinitely more to agriculture than to env other profession of 'life. When the matter is 'impartially investigated, it will appear that grain of every kind, flesh-meat, wine, oil, and a long list of et ceteras, all proceed originally from the cultivating and watchful care of the • peasant ; and that the manufacturer merely exercises his industry upon the productions of the cultivator." As raiment, shelter, and fuel, are equally neces sary to subsistence as f o od, it might with as much truth be said, that the agriculturist merely exercises lif industry upon the production,s of the clothier, the collier, and the builder. The
