His condition was 'almost, hopeless, and hiS effort to remedy it was every whit as desperate. At midnight he saw a vessel at some distance, and there being sonie confusion in his prison-ship favourable to his' plan, he plunged into the sea, and swain off; not without apprehe.lsiou of being devoured, if not of being drowned. He reached th 4 vessel, which proved to be a British merchantmen abdut to sail the following day for Liverpool, and he had" barely time and opportunity to let his family know that he was in safety, and. destined for England to claim the protection of the British and Portuguese Governments, and their. interference to procure for him the clement consideration of the • Emperor. Upon. his arrival in London, where he • came without a far.: thing in his pocket, he applied to the Brazilian Minis ter, to whom he made his case known, and was promised every interference which could be given for the purpose of rendering the return to his own country as safe and speedy as possible. He had not been long in town, when he received a letter from a merchant of Pernambuco, stating, that the Ern .peror bad pardoned him amongst others, mid that at the s. time an Imperial decree had been issued for the execution of several who were found guilty of high treason. This informa= tion made it, of course, unnecessary 'for him to hesitate about returning to his native country. It was only requisite that he should obtain a passage home, and the Brazilian Ambassador, who took a benignant interest in what had haVpened to him, told him, that as soon as the Peranga frigate should sail; I:t.i. should have_ the opportunity he. sought. It was however a mat.: ter of uncertainty at what time that vessel Would be ready, and the unfortunate Brazilian is without a farthing or a friend in' this country. __ - To every one who feels an interest in the moral and religions improvement of his fellow-creatures, the following brief details, - with regard to a very important por tion of the North American Colonies, are presented with much respect and.confidence. The Province of Nova Scotia Was erected into an Episcopal See in 1,737„ and the established religion of the Church of England thus assumed there that prominent and permanent Character to which it is so well entitled, both by the soundness of its doctrines and .the Godly excellence of its Liturgy and TO preserve those doctrines, and that Liturgy and Discipline, in their unabated phrity, it seemed necessary, at the same time, that the means of a right religious education should be provid ed, both for those who were to teach; and those who were to be' taught the hots- principles of our Church—that so they might live and die in the faith and hope of their forefathers.- For this pUrpose, the University at Windsor was established, and called King's College, as a testimony of gratitude to the kindness and piety of his late 11ajesty King George 111. under whotse sanction, and by whose char it was principally formed. The statutes of the College were drawn up after the model of those of Oxford ; and still more effectually to secure the wel fare of the institution it was placed under the patronageof the Archbishop of Canterbury, •.vho has the power of a negative upon every statute, and under the Government of the leading official Personages in the Colony, whilst the i'mportant powers of Visitor,were entrusted, with equal prudence and propriety, to the Bishop of the DioCese..

The Committee have to report to this Meeting, that since the public Meeting in March last they have, prosecuted their great design with unabated attention, and with all the success that they anticipated. They first of all, agreeably to the resolution of the Meeting,.applied to the Lords of the Admiralty, and their answer, received soon after through Mr. Brandling, con:, tained their approbation, but they declined interfering. The Corporation of Newcastle, as Conservators of the River, became the next object of their attention, to whom they then applied for their sanction to the measure. Previous to their applica tion for a deterniinate answer (having presented a petition in the usual form) the Committee thought it requisite to order , a sur vey and report of the whole undertaking by a practical engineer, and for this purpose they selected the acknowledged abilities of .111 r. William Chapman, civil engineer, whose opinion in all q ties tions connected with maratime affairs is highly - esteemed. The time requisite for making the survey and report occasioned a little delay in the - proceedings ; but the Committee by no means relaxed their attention in the intrim to their general business. As soon as the report was received from Mr. Chapman, a copy' of it was imthediately sent to the Mayor of Newcastle, requesting the favour of his directing a survey to be made according to the accompanying plans then handed him, and in answer to the original petition. The Mayor most obligingly attended to the request, anti with the most marked promptitude ordered a survey by the River Jury - ; which was made the succeeding day, and after a further strrvey by the Common Council an answer was received in a week, which the Committee have the greatest satisfaction in declaring to the Meeting to be favour able to the prayer ofahe petition, and in which the Conser- Vators of the River give their full assent to the measure, only binding the Committee to 'confine the erection to the heights, and situations of the piers as laid down in the plan handed them, and requesting a draft of the Bill containing some pre cautionary clauses. After this favourable result, the Corn mittee felt that having made every progress that could be ex pected, they were in the proper stage for laying their proceed ings before the public, and they have therefore called the pre sent _Meeting for that purpose. Before finishing their Report, the Committee find it neces sary for the information of the friends of the undertaking, to enter into a brief explanation of the Report of Mr. Chapman, which, though differing in some degree from the original Re port of Capt. Brown, yet confirms in all material points Capt. Brown's plan.. But before doing this, they find it right to state, that the plan as prepared by Mr. Chapman, when pre sented; to Capt. Brown, which the Committee thought due to that respectable and ingenious projector to do met his most en tire Oprobation, even in the alterations, which are principally of a Focal nature as relates to the placing of the piers for the benait of navigation. Mr. Chapman, on the great question of navigation, on which he was more particularly consulted, de termined on the propriety of altering the sites of the pillars as at first projected. This increased the main span 80 feet, and for an additional security to the bridge against pendulous vi bration, lie recommended the adoption of bars as side braces, emanating from a column on each pier, or supported by cast iron framing shored . from the piers. These circumstances have led to a statement of the probably increase of the estimate in the Report of Mr. Chapman, who considers the contract may amount to 110,0001., or even less. The Committee have felt it to be their most important duty, that the question of capital should be revises with the utmost caution in reference to the alterations, and they are satisfied, from the closest investigation by Captain Brown and Mr. Green, that the capital of 100,0001. originally proposed, is amply suf ficient for th cs completion of this great work, in which. Mr. Chap. man aceords, on receiving the explanation of these gentlemen, and also - from the causes explained in his additional observa tions, via. " The cost of the two high piers may be consider. ably reduced, by supporting the Fide braces on cast fronframing, shored from the piers, in lieu of extending the masonry at each end ; also, as these piers will now be out of the way of the na vigation and of strong tides, there is no necessity for their cut waters being nearly so pointed as before:" The Committee cannot advert to the Report itself, without pointing out the strong grounds it contains of the two great features of the project; viz. its practicability, and the accruing revenue. On the former, every doubt is removed by this accu mulation of evidence, snd the safety rendered certain by the in creased strength which is proposed ; and the question of revenue is considered most fairly made out by the pains which have been taken, under a Sub-Committee, to ascertain the facts, and the data on which the calculations are founded. The result being an increase from the original statement of from 6,0001: to 10,000/. per annum. The Commistee, anticipating the auspicious effects which have ensued from their labours, hare thought it desirable to de. lay the furthering the subscription until they were enabled to lay before - the public the several authorities and documents which are this day brought forward. The subscriptiona, how ever, which have been put down almost without solicitation, already amount to a pledge of the subject being held in due estimation, and an earnest of its eventual success. At a SPECIAL MEETING of the DIRECTORS of the above-mentioned UNDERTAKING, held at, the Mayor's ChiMber, at Newcastle, as above dated, it was resolved that Captain Samuel Brown be requested to advertise for Tenders for erecting the Towers and Masonry required for the intended Bridge of Suspension across the River Tyne, from North to-South Shields, according to the Designs then laid be fore the Meeting. In pursuance of the above Resolution, Notice is hereby giver., that a Model of the Towers, Sections of the Banks, with other Plans, Specifications, and Conditio ns f or erect i ng the Masonryrequired, will be deposited at the Office of Mr. .Fors ter, Newcastle ; at Mr. Chisholm's Office, No. 36, Lincoln's Inn Fields, London ; and at Messrs. Horne's Office, 10, South Charlotte-street, Edinburgh, on the 10th Day of. October next, where they will .remain till the 31st of October, for the In. spection of Persons who may be disposed to contract to build the same. The Quantity of Ashler and Ruble Masonry will be about 600,000 Cubic Feet. Stone and Lime of the best Quality are to be had in great abundance, within a short- distance, by Water Carriage, by which the materials can be taken to the spot at a trifling expense. Tenders to be made in writing, sealed and address e d to the following Gentlemen,. Viz. ; To Matthew Forster, Esq. Solicitor, Newcastle ; WilliaM Chisholm, Esq. 36, Lincoln's Inn Eields, London ; or MessrS. John and NiTilliam Home, W. S.,CharlOtte Tenders for erecti ng t h e M asonry street, Edinburgh, addressed " for the proposed Bridge of Suspension across the Tyne, from North to South Shie:tis." But the principal blessing which this University has been,. -under God, the instrument of communicating to the Christian world, is to be found in' the exertions of many pious Ministers of the Gospel, whom it has sent forth qualified, as far as hu man means could qualify them, for the discharge of those ardu ous and holy duties, which, when speaking of the Clergymen of these North American Provinces, can be considered in no other light, and 'called by no other name, than the labours of the Christian Missionary. Men equally learned, and of equal zeal, might perhaps have been obtained from the Universities of England ; but men of equal experience, and equally contented with their peculiar sphere, men equally acquainted with the habits of the people, and equally attached' to the country in which they were con tinually to preach and dwell, the Universities of England could never have furnished. Such was the origin, and such has been the past usefulness of the University of Nova Scotia ; but it is now unhappily be coming daily.morc inadequate to effect its admirable objects from several causes. 1. A temporary wooden building was all that, in the first foundation of the College, it was deemed necessary or practi cable to raise: and that building, from a want of funds to ob ♦iate the progress ofgradual decay, has naturally, in the course, of nearly forty years, fallen into such a ruinous state, that it can no longer be inhabited without extensive repairs, and is so far gone as to be unworthy of being restored. It may be so re paired as to be occupied for a short timr, but must soon be abandoned. 2. But even were the building in a more perfect condition, it is now no longer sufficiently large to accommodate the increas ing number of students, or fit for the dignified purpose to which it is appropriated, as the established University of a very rising Colony. The population of the Diocese of Nova Scotia is becoming daily more numerous, and the demand for a liberal education is, in consequence, proportionally enlarged. Men of sound reli gious principles and extensive acquirements are wanted for every department, but particularly for the ministry in the Church of Christ. An official Report, just received,shews that in one of the five Provinces which are included within the Diocese, only six teen Clergymen are scattered over the immense extent of 27,000 square miles, where the population is increasing wonderfully every year. The Society for the Propagation of the Gospel has, at this moment, occasion for more than fifty additional Missionaries in the North American Colonies alone; and the formation of the two West Indian Bishoprics, and the earnest endeavours which are so wisely making for the spiritual instruc tion of the Negro slaves, are likely to render King's College of still more importance and use. They certainly render its pre sent building and its present means, altogether unfit and unequal to answer its present and probable future opportunities of doing good. 3. Without any imputation of improper hostility to other forms of doctrine and Church government, it may be fairly stated to those who love their own holy faith and discipline, that if the College at Windsor be not supported by the pious and benevolent, an attachment to the principles of the Church of England and of our happy Constitution must, in Nova Scotia, decline. There are other establishments rising up, which are not conducted upon the same principles, and from them even the children of the members of the Church of Eng land must, if this university fall, be compelled to derive their education. Or, if they do not resort to the dissenting establish ments of Nova Scotia, they must gather their knowledge and form their sentiments in the itepublican Colleges of the United States of America. Thus nurtured and instructed, it is natural to conceive that they will imbibe opinions which are any thing but favourable to the religious and political institutions of Eng land. _ It is impossible to blame others who conscientiously endea vour to propagate their own views of the Gospel and govern ment, even where they differ from our own ; but surely if we have any reverence for our own, or any real belief in their truth and excellence, we must conscientiously contribute to prevent the utter ruin of an University, which is their principal support in a very important Province of the empire. We shall do our utmost to provide a sound Episcopal branch of the Church of Christ in America, with the means of educating for itself, what it so greatly wants, a succession of sound Episcopal ministers. _ ....... impressed with these considerations the Society for the Pro pagation of the Gospel has founded scholarships for the educi non of Clergymen, and • granted sool. to relieve the exigencies of the College. The Society for Pr Qmot i„ g Christian Know ledge has also made a donation of 5001. for the religious objects of the Institution; and several distinguished indivi• duals have followed the example. . temporary ,repair to th e p resen t Buildin g , But to give some so that it may be used. until another is completed ; to engage in the erection of a new and sufficient edifice ; to provide ad ditional Professors, Tutors, and Scholarships ; to furnish the necessary Philosophical - Apparatus and Books ' ---these are ob. jects, to which the Subscriptions already receiv e d are extremely inadequate.

Ho...ED sift, IBEG leave to inform you, that ever since the year 1790, I had been afflicted with the Lues Venereal, which, from its obstinately resisting every course of medicine prescribed by the most eminent of the faculty here, and nn dergoing severalsevere courses of salivation, and twice dis charged from the Hospital with little relief, would appear to be of the most inveterate nature. In the spring of last year my oisorder had g.ot to such a bead, as nearly to put a period to my existence—l bad a large ulcer owthe crown of my head, One on each arm, and my legs were broke out in a frightful manner ; my right was dreadfully painful, and had been in a state of ulceration for the last seven years ; my left had also two large nodes on it, was very much discoloured, and gave me such excruciating pain, particularly when warm in bed, as nearly to deprive me of rest; in this lamentable state, I was recommended by Mr. J. Thompson, (who received so great a cure by them here), to take vour Leake's Patent Pills, which I began to do on the etith o. May ; in the course of a fortnight I began to receive benedt—ni little more than a month the ulcers on my head and arms were soundly healed— soon atter, the sores on my legs healed also; leaving, how.. considerable discolouration in the skin, and pails in the bone of the left, which, by the blessing of God, and a little longer pet severance in your invaluable Medicine, subsided; the nodes dispersing, the skin regaining its natural hue, and the nocturnal pains gradually going off.—l thus became, by your liberal advice and medicine, perfectly free from all my former complaints—have recovered my former spirits and strength, and am become jolly and fat, in which state having continued many months, to the astonishment of all who knew me, I am at a loss in what terms to express my gratitude, hut beg you, for the good of other suffering mortals, to make this my case as public as possible, as I shall on every occa sion ; in so doing you wUI greatly oblige, Sir, your grateful, obedient, very humbleservatit.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. AN APPEAL `TO THE BAR. Maltsiow-liouSE.—Yesterilay two gentlemen of this coun try, ac companied by 'a Brazilian barrister, Senhor J ac i n t o Moreiro Severiano da Cunha, waited upon the LORD MAYOR, to request his Lordship's assistance in procuring for the stra nger the means of returning to Pernambuco, .from which he had been expelled under circumstances of a singular cha -racter. • Senhor da Cunha is wholly unacquainted with the English language, but.he made himself intelligible in the Latin tongue, in which he is quite perfect. The following is the substance of his communication :—He has been practising at the Brazi lian bai upwards of two years, and had obtained a reputation for the zeal with which he advocated several canes of a compli cated and embarrassing nature ; but at the Brazils liberty of speech is frequently checked in an advocate, notwithstanding the high privileges claimed by the the fraternity all over the globe. In the course of his practice, he was engaged to-argue in defence of a person charged with conduct hostile' to the lin pciial Government during the late disturbances in - the province Of Pernambuco. He ventured to -reflect upon the circum-' stances of the prosecution in the generous veherrience of his address, and immediately the vengeance of the military police was directed against him. An order was issued under some: false but specious pretence, he was apprehended in the bosom of his family. and confined in a marine piison, to which the 001/eminent has been in the habit of committing persons ac when a body of Mikan troop s , di spatc h e d to cuSed or convicted of seditious practices: lie hadnbt been long • in this condition Pernambuco by order of the Government, for the purpose of preserving tranquillity in the province; broke into his house where his wife and children were expecting his liberation, cash ? plate,, an d even o f the i n a o d k t he naked. robbed Which The tunfortunateo were hearing of this tie ' sti - tiction of his property, way apprehensive th a t t h e n e xt attac k iifurniture, tritu -necessaryre av to prevent t h em from go i ng ocate, upon The LORD MAYOR asked several question's of the two gen- - tlmen who recommended the tpplication to his Lordship, answers to which perfectly satisfied his Lordship of the tru:-. of the statement made to. him. He feared that what he could do in such a case would be very limited,. but he had no doubt that through the medium of the press, which was ever ready to lend its powerful assistance where an individual was worthy of it, the circumstances would be communicated to men ca.: pable of appreciating the merits. One of the gentltmen who accompanied the Brazilian said; the latter merely wished for the means or living while he was obliged to remain in town, and would with gratitude repay whatever he might receive the moment he was re-established in his business at home. The Loma MAYOR thought the liberal members of the ho nourable profession to which M. Da Cunha belonged, would most probably take an interest in his misfortunes. It was seldom, he believed, that the gentlemen of the bar had time to allow their sympathies to be awakened, and he should like much to have the honour of bearing testimony to their him:- nit)r in this unfortunate c a s e , by 2ece i v i ng a su b scr ipti on f or their poor Brazilian brother. Whatever effect this compliment may have upon the gentle men of the bar, his Lordship expressed two or three times his readiness to receive pecuniary communications, and his hope that there would not be a disappointm'ent. lie, however, beg: ged to be understood not to mean to throw the whole onus upon the bar, although he was convinced that there would be an mediate and liberal competition amongst them on the subject. LADY BARRYMORE. MARLBOROUGH-STREET.--Yesterday the unfortunate woman Mary Ann Pearce, better known at the police-offices ,of the metropolis under the assumed title of Lady Barry- Mort, was, in all probability for the last time, brought before a 'bench of magistrates. She was conveyed to this office in a coach from St. Giles's watchhouse, and placed at the bar on the charge of one of the beadles of that parish,'who state,, that as he was passing at a late hour the night before through Drury-lane, he heard the moaning of a female, and approach ing the spot, he found this wretched being stretched out at the corner of a street, without shoe or stocking, gown or cap, and almost in a state of total insensibility, from the combined ef. fects of intoxication and debility, but rather more of, the latter than the former ; she was quite unable to move, or to walk to` the watchhouse, and he took her thither in a coach to shelter her for the night. She offered no resistance whatever, nor was she capable of doing so; and during the night she was dread fully ill, and indeed they imagined dangerously so. The clothes she had on at present were supplied to her at the watch. house, as she was nearly naked when tound.—The Magistrate- Mr. ROE, asked no question of the poor creature, and if he had, it is doubtful that she would have had the strength to answer, but ordered her to be conveyed forthwith, in a coach, to the Infirmary of the House of Correction, and here to have every attention necessary paid to hit evidently doubtful state of existence. She could scarcely support herself at the bar the few seconds she stood there. She never uttered a syllable, and scarcely seemed to breathe ; her face, the hue of death ; her eyes glazed and sunken ; her cheeks fallen, and her mouth hal' open, with difficulty inhaling a breath of vital air. In short, she was an awfully living image of death itself. Police officers, beadles, and parish constables, whom her mighty arm had*? often levelled with the dust, now stood close to, and approached her undismayed. SEDITIOUS PLACARDS. QUEEN-SQUARE.—Yesterday evening, soon after 7 o'clock:: 111 r. AIARKLAND took his seat upon the Magisterial Bench ; when a most respectable looking gentleman, who gave hiw name Christopher Dickenson, of Shrewsbury, was charged with having that day distributed a number of treasonable placards in the neighbourhood o 1 the Horse Guards, Privy-gardens, and Whitehall. Mr. Dickenson said, that he had recently come to London from Shrewsbury to see his daughter, who resided in North- , street, at the west end of the town. S. Reynolds, of No. 10, Dartmouth.street, Westminster, who overtook and secured Mr. Dickenson, now being sworn, deposed that he kept a stick-stall at Whitehall. About four o'clock in the afternoon he noticed the prisoner, who was looking at the proclamations posted at the Horse Guards, near the Tilt yard, when witness took notice that the gentlemen had a large bundle in his hand. Witness did not 'then particularly notice the papers; but he frequently saw one hanging on the rails, which be took down, and gave to Thompson, The street-keeper.- He then saw the prisoner pass onwards to Lord Melbourne's fillars, and there hang another of his papers up. Witness then ollowed the prisoner up Parliament-street,. and saw him hang ing up papers on the railings, all the way he went, out of the large bundle. He went back again to the Horse Guards, and found him, after he had put his own sticks up. Witness, in the course of his watching, saw the prisoner hang one paper on the gateway to - Richmond-terrace--which paper he could identify. This paper Was shown to the street-keeper, to whose custody the prisoner had been confided by the last witness, and was ideu, tified by him. The street-keeper also corroborated the evidence of Reynolds. When the prisoner was searched there were found in his possession eleven Sovereigns, one half-crown piece, twcr shillings in silver, and four-pence in copper. Mr. MsaimawD—Can you say anything, Mr. Dickenson. as to why you were putting up these things ? Mr. Dickenson-1 put them up, Sir, because I wished them , to be read by the public ;as they have sold my property ; and used me very ill. Gilmore, one of the officers, took charge of the placard. Mr. Dickenson here applied to have his money back, but he was informed that he could not possibly have it that nigh's, ag he must be committed. Mr. MARYLAND—Do you know any one living in.towns Mr. Dickenson, besides your daughter ? Mr. Dickenson said, that he was acquainted with Mr. Nether sole, an attorney, in Essex -street, Strand. Mr. MARKLAND—You bad much better have seen Mr. Nethersole, i f possible, than proceeded to pot up inflammatory papers, tending to bring the King into discredit, and-impeach ing the justice of the Crown. . Mr. Dickenson expressed his wish not to be remanded to the Watch-house, as two hours' confinement in the night,-in such a place, might cause his death. Mr.. MARK LAND-:-You will be ace() - nmodated in one of the best places we have , which is Tothill-fields, awl I will endear your to see Mr. lloblouse early in the mowing.. 'e understand that Mr. Dickenso., in his." eOict," stttes„ that daring the last ten years he had been robbed of:consider able property by the uninstifiable opptession of law ; that for the last seven years he tout been app,ying. for redress, not.only to his Majesty and the two .Secretaries of State, but.also.to the gentlemen, or the House of Commons ; but that after all these •efforts,.no redress Was to be had. That therefore. his 'Majesty, as respected the due administration of justice, had not acted up to the - coronation oath ; that, finally, George the ,Fourth • commonly called King, ought to be such nu - longer,-but_hieheir put upon the throne. . • The paper is signed by the writer, and dated, from Shrews.' bury, last month-
