Printed for John Murray, Albemarle-street. Just Published—in quarto. HORARY TABLES, for finding the Time by Inspection, to facilitate the operations for obtain ing the Longitude at Sea by Chronometers and Lunar Ob servations ; also for finding both the Latitude and Time, by noting the exact interval by a good watch or chronometer, between two observed Altitudes of the Sun, or a fixed Star ; or by the simultaneous observations of the Altitudes of any two celestial objects. To which is added, by Wa y of Appendix, an easy method of Clearing the Observed Distance of the effects of Refraction and Parallax, with new Tables for the purpose, computed according to Mr. Lyon's Theory, and with Dr. Thomas Young's Refractions. By THOMAS LYNN, Late Commander in the Sea-service of the Eait India Company, and Examiner (appointed by the Honourable Court of Directors,) of the Officers of that service. Author of " The Improved System of Telegraphic Co m _ munication."—" Star Tables."—Nautical and Astronomi cal Tables."—" Supplementary Tables of the Moon's Place, for every three hours, in right ascension and declination, ikc." to be printed annually for two years in advance. Ste reotyped and printed for the Author. Sold by himself, at 148, Leadenhall-street ; by Messrs. Par bury and Allen, and by all other Booksellers. Price 2/. 2s. bds. The plan of these tables is in itself simple and obvious. The degrees of Latitude from the Equator to 60 North and South, occupy a prominent situation at the head of each page. The degrees of declination, from oto 24, run from left to right, on the top and bottom of the columns, and the Altitudes increase as they descend in the marginal column. The Horary Angles, standing opposite to 0, or Zero, in the Altitude column, show the apparent time to the nearest second that the Sun'a centre is in the true or rational horizon ; or the time of his Rising and Setting ; or the semidiunaal arcs of any Celestial objects. Opposite to the true Altitudes (to the number of sixty in each page), and under and over the degrees of Declination, are the cor responding Horary Angles, or Apparent Times fro:a Noon, computed to the nearest second. When the Meridian Al titude falls short of 60 degrees, the pages are kept full by the introduction of smaller portions of Altitudes, chiefly of 10 minutes each ; which enhances the value of the Tables, inasmuch as more frequent opportunities are afforded, to obtain the time with the least possible trouble ; and that, in general, when best adapted to the times and circum stances when observations for Time are most desirable. The Horary Tables tints computed (exclusively of 58 pages of subsidiary Tables, and 48 of prefatory matter and in structions) contain '282 pages, each page consisting of 13 columns, and each column of 61 Horary Angles, making sum of not less than 191 thousand results, or computed numbers. The most scrupulous attention has been paid to the accuracy of the numbers. The computations were conducted by two able persons, separated from each other, and working by different methOds, entirely independent of any former work of the kind. The operations were verified by comparison —before the pages went to press, they were twice read, and the differences afterwards taken to insure still greater accuracy, and the beautiful agreement of the results, hear ample testimony to the care and skill of the Operators. The main original object of these Tables, was to find the Apparent Time from an Altitude of the Sun, or other Ce lestial object, in a known Latitude, and for which purpose they will be found extremely simple. But this convenience may be considered in a secondary point of view, in com parison of their utility in obtaining both Latitude and Time, independently of the Latitude by Account, at any hour of the day, after the Sun is 5 degrees high, or at any hour of the night, when the horizon is sufficiently defined to take the altitudes of the Stare. The method will be best shown by the following Example :—Admit a ship to be entering the British Channel, on a day when the Sun's declination is 20 deg. South. and in the morning at 8 h. 0 m. 1-0 see. by a good watch or chronometer, let the Sun's true alti tude be 5 degrees—and again at bh. 42 m., 36 sec., by the same watch, let the Sun's true altitude be 10 degrees. --Required the Latitude and Apparent Time at the last observation ? N.B. in this Example the ship is supposed to be stationary. - If otherwise, the first altitude must he corrected for the change of station, as in the common method of double altitudes. OPERATION, 11.

THEN TO FIND TUX TIME. Let the difference between L and N. be P, which is equal to 6 m. 49 sec. under which in Table Z, and oppo site to 29, the minutes of latitude already found, is 3 m. 17 sec. 7—say 3 in. 18 sec. which being subtracted from L, because N is less than L, gives 2 h. 5S to. 53 sec. the Apparent Time required, and hence the longitude by chro nometer. REMARKS.-1. The results both of latitude and time, by the above process and correct data, will always be close approximations to truth, and sufficiently so for nautical purposes-4f great accuracy be required, it is only to as sume another latitude, nearer to the latitude last found, and compute the interval, until there be no difference be tween the observed and the computed intervals, which re quiring no new problem to solve, show the utility and beauty of this approximate method—for vvhiCh, and for others equally valuable, the reader is referred to the Work itself. 2. The Horary Angles K. L. M. N. are taken out at sight from the Horary Tables, and should there be odd minutes of Declination and Latitude, which there generally will, the proportions are most easily reduced by the help of the subsidiary Table Z.

The importance of being enabled to obtain the Lati tudeat any ti me of the day, by an d Ti me in the short interval of half an hour, and so sin, le a process, must be evident t o every one acquainted withthe due guidance of a ship : under this impression, the Author is computing the Horory Angles for every possible degree of Altitude, from the Horizon to the Meridian, as a Supplement to the Ho rary Tables, which will be printed with all convenient dispatch. g t a Mr. Lynn takes occasion to inform his friends and the Public, that he is publishin, a new edition of Mar getts' Linear T a bl e . , i n Quarto, upon fine wore paper, whereby the observed angular distance between the Sun and Moon, or between the Moon and a fixed star or a Planet, is reduced to the true distance in the short space of two minutes, without the help of logarithms.

Our intelligent Correspondent at Seaford writes us the following letter, dated twelve o'clock on Thursday night : • " Dear Sir—Our election does not take place till to-morrow, towards the afternoon. A mes senger, who arrived at Mr. Fitzgerald's this evening, express, waits to bear back the writ, and I may send you a line by him ; but that, perhaps, may be too late for you. I therefore write this to say that the place was canvassed, on Satur day, by Mr. Fitzgerald, for Mr. Canning, and with entire success ; and that, on Saturday even ing, a large assemblage of the voters, at the New Inn, unanimously resolved to support the Right Honourable Gentleman. Unless an earthquake, or the eruption of a volcano, or of the sea, should take place, of which you will, of course, have due notice, you may, ) think, safely add, that the election took place yesterday (Friday), and that IN Tr. Canning's nomination was received with ac clamation, and that he was returned without op position. A letter from him, addressed to the electors, was read by Mr. Fitzgerald, in which he regretted the impossibility of his being present at the election, but declaring his wish to seize an early opportunity of paying his respects to those who had so readily united to support him. " By the bye, do you know that our little borough has the boast of having given the great Lord Chatham his first seat in the House of Commons ? it was so. Your's, &c. ic * * * A second letter, received yesterday evening, from the same esteemed Correspondent, states as follows : " Dear Sir—Perhaps you may have time to say that the Election is over, as I statedin my letter last night that it would be ; Mr. Canning was unaninzously returned. He was proposed by Thomas Chambers, Esq., and seconded, in a short but neat address, by Charles Harrison, Esq.; and a letter from the Right Honourable Gentleman to the Electors was read by John Fitzgerald, Esq. M.P. Perhaps you may be able to add, that a dinner was given upon the occasion, and also to insert the enclosed ad dress of one of the Electors, which is, I con ceive, in unison with the feelings or a great ma jority of the nation. " Your's, in very great haste, * * * * Nrr t , In tendering my vote for the Right Hon. George Canning, I hope I may be permitted to say a few words expressive of my own sentiments upon this occasion, and expressive, I am sure, of the sentiments of every respectable inhabitant of the town. Our little borough, which has been the scene of many a violent contest, has been usu ally swayed by local more than by general motives ; but, upon the present occasion, I can answer for myself, and I think I can answer for all, that we are not acting in accordance with the expressed wishes of our respected Member, Mr. Fitzgerald, or the wishes known, though not expressed, of our noble neighbour Lord Seaford, I, for one, am proud in having an o pportunity of voting for him, who, as the Foreign Minister of England, has released her from the trammel; of the Holy Alliance—for him who has recognised the inde pendence of South America, who is supporting the cause of freedom in Portugal, and who is en deavouring to establish the liberties of Greece. I am proud also in the opportunity thus afforded me, of expressing my disapprobation of those servants who have endeavoured haughtily to dic tate 'to their Royal Master--who would give to George the Fourth the name, but would deprive him of the power and the prerogative of a King ; who would, in short, say to him, as. Tr inculo said to Caliban, « You shall be King, and we w ill be Viceroys over you.' "—Brighton Herald. William Howard—l live with my daughter,whose intellects are very weak, and an old housekeeper, at Woodchester. Previous to last Michaelmas I was in the habit of employing workmen for building, I was also engaged for the trustees of the roads, and attended one of their meetings on the 1 lth of Oc tober, when I was to have received a balance due to me of between 200/. and 3001., but I did not re ceive it until the next day (Thursday), when the money was paid me. On Friday, the 13th of Oc tober, at about a quarter before nine in the evening, there was a knock at the outer door. I opened it, and found Birt there, with a large stick in his hand. He said he wanted work. I told him I had not got any. He said I had. I told him I had given up business, and had no work. He then said, " I wanted some stone getting." I asked " What for ?" He said, " For building.' I said, " I was not go ing to build any more, but would rather pull down than build again." He said, " I was going to build a row of houses." 1 asked " Where ?" He said, " On the ground here," and walked towards the gate of the garden leading to the ground. There are two gates. The first was about six yards from my door. I followed him. He went through the gate, and left it open. I went to it and shut it. He was then on my ground, about four feet on the outside of the first gate. The other gate opens into the road, and is a little further on. 113 I turned back the left side of my head was towards the palings, and I had not got two yards from the gate, when I observed Matthews at the corner of my house, near the palings, advancing towards the gate with a pistol in his two hands. I saw its muzzle and butt, as he sprang, or stepped quick, from the end of the house. Birt said " Now's the time ;" and Matthews raised his hands above the pales and presented the pistol to me. I turned quick from him, and, whilst turning, the contents struck my head above my left ear. I am sure the prisoners are the men; I have no doubt of it. George Bekingham, constable.—l saw both the prisoners at the Ram Inn, Worcester, at 8 o'clock that night. I assisted in taking them afterwards, Birt on the 20th, and Matthews on the 21st of Oc tober. The turnkey said to Matthews, " You are the chap that was along with the girl in the 'lane." Matthews burst out a crying, and said, " If he had not been drunk, he should not have done it." He went on saying, another person and he had been waiting a quarter of an hour for Howard, and the other person desired him to mark a stone to frill (toss) up to see which should knock at the door.— They did so, and it fell to his lot to go to the door. but he objected, whereupon the other said he would break a stick, which would make the old man come out. That other person went and knocked at the door; witness continued, "I saw this stick (a stick was produced) lying on the ground at the end of the house ; it was picked up in .my presence that even ing 20 minutes after nine, about ten yards from the garden gate. I said to Matthews, "I am very sorry for this. I little thought of this when I saw you at the public-house." Matthews said, the stick and pick (pitchfork) lay under a wall." _ _ Cross-examined.—l have known Matthews these I'2 years. He was a very wood lad; a hard-working industrious man. The prisoners, on being called on for their defence, said they left it entirely to their counsel. Mr. Watson called, John Matthews (no relation of the prisoner).—l live .50 yards from Mr. Howard's house. I have frequently heard shots in the night time, in Lord Ducie's wood. Mr. Long called on me that night to tell me Mr. Howard had been shot. I had not then heard any firing. About a quarter of an hour afterwards I did hear a shot in Lord Ducie's premises. I have known the prisoner Matthews many years. He was always au honest, industrious, good lad. Samuel Webb, mealman of Stroud, and William Merritt, two very respectable-looking men, also gave Matthews a very good character. They came unso licited for that purpose. The Jury retired for about an hour, and then came back with a verdict of Guilty. Mr. Baron VAUGHAN pronounced the fatal sen tence of the law in a most impressive manner. Hit Lordship seemed greatly affected. Birt said, after the sentence, the blow was struck with the pick. The prisoners went from the dock with a quick step. They are both sated in the calendar to be twenty-one. With this trial the Assizes terminated. Mr. Baron VAUGHAN came into Court at seven o'clock in the morning, but the proceedings were not over until near three. There are seven prisoners in all left for execution—the two whose trial we have just given ; Mark and John Dyer, under the same (Lord Ellenborough's) Act, for shooting at Thomas Mills; and Joseph Ray, James Jones, and William Leach, for a burglary at Horfield. This Circuit, which ends here, has been heavier than was ever known. PARIS, APRIL 16.—We have just left an eminent French silk merchant from Lyons, whc has been paying a visit to his competitors on the other side of the Channel. He says that the progress you have effected in your silk ma nufactures is really surprising ; he was in Eng land two years ago, and at that period he could not have anticipated the wonderful improvement you have made in almost every silk article, par ticularly in ribands and gauzes. He states that you labour under certain disadvantages, which he, as a French manufacturer, has not to en counter in the home market ; for instance, the English ladies, even those of high rank, want cheap articles, and grumble bitterly if they are asked five or six shillings per yard for silk of the best quality ; whereas in Paris, and most of the princip-sl Frencit towns, a grisette will frequently pay at the rate of four or five shillings per yard ; you are, in consequence, compelled to manufac ture light and cheap goods, for which, having a more certain sale, the really good quality is ne glected. The two articles appear, let us say, in the South American market : they have passed through so many hands before they reach the real consumer, that the difference in price between them is small, and in a few months or weeks the difference in quality is apparent; on this account a decided preference is given to French silks. The merchant adds a circum stance which rather surprises us—within these eighteen months, the tasteful French designs which were so universally admired, have become so altered, that the ribands and figured silks of this season are absolutely ugly ; whereas those of England are peculiarly beautiful. He fears that the day is fast approaching when the French will be driven out of every foreign market. On Saturday afternoon an isignisition NIST t,s . tkene at the Red Lion public-house, Wahearth, before RICHARD CARTER, Esq., and a respectable jury; pie the body of a female infant, whose mother, Mary Brooks, is charged with having murdered. In our Friday's publication, we gave the particu lars, as far as could be accurately collected from the very brief examination which took place at Union half, and it will be recollected that the mother was then committed to Horsemonger-lane gaol, to await the decision of the inquest: Mr. Swift, a surgeon, who had attended at the accouchement of the mo ther, said he was convinced she was occasionally labouring under insanity. Before detailing the substance of the evidence, it may not be improper to state that Mrs. Brooks has been, ever since she was confined in Horsemon;,see lane prison, in a state little short of actual madness. She has had a strait waistcoat on all the time, and was on Saturday night dreadfully agitated, and calling aloud for her " murdered baby." Martha Goulding deposed, that on Wednesday morning last, Mr. and Mrs. Brooks, the latter of whom she had known two years, became lodgers in her husband's house, No. 7, Dean's-buildings, East lane, Walworth, bringing with them the infant, into the cause of whose death the investigation was then carrying on. Mrs. Brooks seemed a good deal agitated, and talked about being hooted as she passed along the Borough in her way. Mr. Brooks told her not to heed it, and treated the matter lightly as though he believed it was his wife's imagination. On Thursday morning, between six and seven o'clock, witness heard the child chuckling, as though it was pleased at something. About seven she de sired her little boy to knock at their bed-room door, and inquire if a fire should be lighted in their par lour below. Mrs. Brooks answered in the affirmative. All was then silent for a short time, when witness heard Mr. Brooks exclaim, in a great perturbation— " Oh dear, oh dear !" Supposing something serioni had occurred, she and one of her sons, a youth of 14, ran and forced open the bed-reom door. On entering, she found Mr. Brooks endeavouring to raise up his wife, who was lying bleeding from a wound in the throat. There were two razors, one of which was bloody, then lying shut on a chest of drawers. Witness despatched her son for a surgeon, and she assisted Mr. Brooks in supporting his wife until one arrived. The infant, witness saw l y ine . across the bed with its throat dreadfully cut; it was nearly dead. Mr. Brooks, before the surgeon ar rived, asked his wife " how she came to kill the baby," and she answered, " that it was her only comfort left, and she intended to have killed her self." She also said, " I killed my child, that it should not be told of my misconduct." Mr. Henry Brooks, the husband, was then called. He had only been living with his wife about ten days before the shocking event, having before that been separated from her a year. During the separation, however, he had occasionally visited her, and he al lowed her 1/. a-week for maintenance. In conse quence of his sister and his wife disagreeing, he took the lodgings of last witness ; and on Wednesday morning about four o'clock, removed his goods from his sister's at Hackney thither. His wife carried the baby, and did not accompany him. He break fasted on 'Wednesday morning with her, and re turned from his business in the city to dinner. He went to bed about nine in the evening. His wife likewise went to bed, but did not undress herself, neither did she undress the baby. About six o'clock the following ramming she got out of bed, and when in the middle of the room, exclaimed, " Oh, Harry, who is to have my child ?" He immediately jumped up, and found that she had a razor in her hand which she had taken from his dressing-case. She had then taken the child from the bed. He said to her, in answer to the question about the baby, " My dear, who will take the child from you ?" and she answered, " There are 50 men waiting for it." Then he began to talk to her of the foolishness of such remarks, and prevailed on her again to get into bed. She still had all her clothes on, as she had when she retired to rest the night before. The razor he took from her, and put it under him in bed. He then dozed, and was suddenly awoke by something thrown on the bed, which he discovered was the baby, with its throat cut. He saw his wife on the floor with an open razor in her hand; and although he sprang out of bed instantly, before he could prevent her, she had drawn the razor across her throat. She then sunk on the floor, and he called aloud for aid, when Mrs. Goulding and her son entered the apartment. In answer to questions put by the Jury, it would seem that he and his wife had lived most unhappily together; that he had frequently threatened to have bar placed in a lunatic asylum, conceiving her con duct, especially when under the effects of liquor, as evincing an unsoundness of mind. The Jury, having consulted together a short time, returned a verdict of " Wilful murder against Mary Brooks." SOCIETY OF PAINTERS IN WATER COLOURS. The present Exhibition is beautified by some fine historical pieces and landscapes, on a large scale, for which paintings in Water Colours under the hand of a professional artist are admirably adapted.— Among the most attractive pieces—premising , :utt they were all far above mediocrity—we noticed the following :—Mr. Copley Fielding stands first, both as to the number of his pictures and the merit of performance : of these perhaps the best, because the most hazardous in the attempt, and requiring most of spirit, boldness, and determination, in the design and execution, is The Pilot going of to a Vessel in a hard Gale, near the Eddystone. Mr. Fielding has also in this collection a Distant View of Portsnzoutl4, of Cowes, in the Isle of Wight, 4.c. Throughout all his pictures he has depicted nature in a ve►l of sots-. them sunshine, and seemed, as has been somewhere said of the Flemish Both, to have " looked at at! things through an imaginary haze of golden light." Mr. G. F. Robson has several beautiful Land scapes, consisting principally of wild romantic Scot tish scenery. There is a peculiarity in his colouring and a constant selection and display of a dark slatish hue, which conveys very strongly a notion of the dreariness and desolation that mark many of the se questered spots that he depicts. Mr. G. Barret has a very clever and ingeniously devised picture of a Scene from Gil ,Bas with Robbers. . _ Mr. S. Prout, to whom this Society is indebted for his very elaborate and well-executed contribu tions of Architectural Paintings, has enriched the present Exhibition with the following, fully worthy of his former fame :—Arch of Constantine, Rome ; Ponte Rialto, at Venice; Nuremburg, Bavaria. Mr. J. Varley displays all the clearness, accuracy, and precision, which usually characterises his per formances. We conclude our notice of this very meritorious and rapidly improving Institution, by introducing to the notice of our readers one of the cleverest per= formances of the present collection, and which will satisfy them on inspection that Painters in Water Colours, as well as Painters in Oil, may appropriate to themselves the task of Historical Painting : Mr. Stephanoff—Mary Queen of Scots (attended by the Four Marie's) in her retirement at St. An drews, receiving Randoph, sent by Elizabeth to ne go chile a marriage between i'Wary and the Earl o f Leicester. A Court Martial assembled on board his Ma jesty's ship Windsor Castle, on Saturday last, to try Lieutenant John Harrison Bowker, of that ship, for his conduct while in the command of tile Leveret brig, her tender, in a breach of the 33d article of war, and of the sth article of the 9th chapter of his Majesty's regulations. The Court adjoined from day to day, until this day (Thursday) when the said Lieutenant John Harrison Bowker was pronounced guilty of the charges brought against him, and sentenced to be dismissed the service.--Plymouth Journal.
