At the Court at St. James's, the 11th of September, 1833. PRESENT, The King's Most Excellent Majesty in Council. The state of the King's health, which engrosses public attention here, is less critical. The excessive heat of the weather had set in motion the had humours with which his system abounds, but a change in the temperature has enabled his medical attendants to draw those humours downwards, and fix them in the legs. By these mans he is unable to walk ; but all danger has been averted, at least for the present. Louis XVIII., who was al fl;eted with the same disorder, lived a long time in a like mate. Dr. Bowring has already made a tour through France exclusively with commercial views. These facts, to which we could add others, are a strikin g * evidence of the commercial tendency of the present period ; and i~ is to b! hoped that this tendency will be shared by the administration of every country, and that thus an international policy, which forms the basis of sh prosperity, and in which consisis the only real and durable greatness of countries, may be promoted and encouraged. His Majesty in Council was this day pleased to declare, Richard Marquess Wellesley, Knight, of the Most Noble Order of the Garter, Lieutenant-General and Genei al- Governor of that part of the United Kingdom called I; eland. This day his Grace George William Duke of Argyll, L or d Steward of His Majesty's Household, was, by His Majesty' s command, sworn of His Majesty's Most honourable Privy Council, and took his place at the Board accordingly.

To a very consi rable part of grown-up men the complaint which is called 4 "rnisE is but too well known, and the frequency of the k ibition of T russes in the shop , windows, proves to us, sot only the ext ent of tie prevalence of the complaint, but nto the importance tne attached to its cure. The complaint Purely mechanical ; it consists of the dislocation or dis a part of the human frame ; and purely mechanical the rem edy.

There are a great variety of Trusses, be!t er than others, that is more effectual, and less of great i nven ' e at ; and to a grea t num b er o f persons , i t i s emportanc e teo know which sort is the best ; an to d "a'ag in a situation to communicate that knowledge eyeing readers, know it to be my bounden duty to do it. f r TvrentY•tavo years ago, I, being out a shooting, Jumped t ° 'n a hank full ten feet high, eere into the field below, and s produced by the violence of the shock, something oat 1 7 , 1 g a " me very great pain, but of the nature of which I elv as n ' thi ags I cime to London, and applied to the I' t e e e ,": r * C hevalier, the surgeon, who directed me to get a tlriledeagteu ' rle w he l licb I did.

SETENOAKS CIIILIACII RATE. --Saturday, pursuant to ❑otice, the trustees under the act for improving the church in this town, met in vestry to make a rate of Is. 6(1. iu the pound. After the meeting of trustees a vestry was held, to make another rate for the expenses of the church for the year ensuing. When the rate-payers were ad. mitted, all who lead not paid last year's rate were ex cluded. Mr. Morphew, one of the churchwardens, moved that a rate of sixpence in the pound be granted for the ensuing year. Mr. Granger moved an amend ment, that the meeting adjourn for six months. The rate was, however, carried by a majority of four. A bill of indictment has been preferred against 'Messrs. Parrish, Chatfield, and Baker, arising out of the late sale of a pig for church rates. At a numerous vestry last Friday, on an unexpected motion, " that the meeting for making a rate be adjourned to this day twelvemonths," it was agreed to without dissent. The church of St. John's (L. C.) was on Friday, the 2d inst., consecrated by the Bishop of Quebec; and in the afternoon of the same day his Lordship administered the rite of confirmation, when 57 persons, chiefly adults, were admitted to a participation of it. The Bishop left on Sa turday for a visit to the eastern townships.—Montreal Herald, Aug. 10. The standing committee of the Society for the Propa gation of the Gospel have agreed to a report announcing that last year (1832) his Majesty's Government had given notice to the Society that the Parliamentary grants would be gradually reduced, and at the end of three years dis continued. In 1831 the number of Church of England clergy in British North America was 148, and the salaries paid to them amounted to 25,6351. The Parliamentary grant amounted to 15,5001., and the remaining sum of 10,1351. was supplied by the funds of the Society. The Parliamentary grant was reduced in the year 1832 to 1 . 2,000/. ; the Government are t o p ro pose for 1833 a grant of 8,0001., and for 1834 a grant of 4,0001 , after which year there are to be no further grants. The commit tee recommend that all grants from the funds of the society be instantly withdrawn from Upper Canada. They re commend further that the grants of the society be, after sufficient notice, entirely withdrawn from the stations of Quebec, Halifax, and St. John's, Newfoundland ; and that as the whole annual income of the society, miaing from subscriptions, donations, and the interest of money in the funds, applicable to objects in North America and India, amounts to about 12,0001., they recommend that reduc tions in the society's annual expenditure, to the amount of 9,5001., be made by diminishing the sums now paid to catechists and schoolmasters, and to scholars and exhibi tioners at King'a College, Nova Scotia, and by with holding the grant voted for several years towards tho maintenance of that institution. They recommend ether reductions to the clergymen after the year 1834. We are informed from respectable quarters that much pain has been occasioned by a small portion of the report which appeared in our Paper of the 4th inst., respecting a prosecution of the King v. Forsyth, at the London Sessions. It appears that the RECORDER made some remarks, which, from the confusion prevalent in the Court, may have been misunderstood ; and we are re quested to state, so tar as regards Mr. COULTER, the pro secutor, that he is a gentleman of great respectability, and as such maintains a fair character in the commercial world. EXPORTATION OF ENGLISH RACE HORSES.-Amongst the many foreign noblemen and gen tlemen now buying thorough-bred horses, in England, &c., is Joseph Dulewski, Esq., a Polish gentleman of for tune, and who, by his choice, has shown himself a very good judge both of shape and blood. He has purchased Chester, four years old, by Filho da Puta, Miss Went worth, by Cervantes; he was a good runner, having won ill public money 6741. He has also bought Ludlow, who was said last St. Ledger to have been sold for 5,00 W. He is four years o ld, b y Filh o, dam by Smolensk°, &c. ; he won in public money 1,2301., and since purchased by M. Dulewski he has won the Warwick Cup of 100 sous., with 601. in specie, beating Liston and Manchester, which M. Dulewski takes with him. These two horses are of tie best blood and great size, being each sixteen bands. He has also bought a remarkably fine Yorkshire three parts bred horse, and some valuable mares; they depart next week for Hamburg. These horses must very much improve the breed in Poland, and such buyers as M. Du lewski deserve well of their country. waited ( an m o , o j a view of %el the numerous:l,ol rota shir re oet toge set 3oulogne , d when they ra of 3—the li atu i ce which they d blitr lubject of r o r! !nt had take the ta had cou'e 0 1 mmstanee' , st ood , at preseo t med , 11 was O ri el tio holy one, log s of the ° A wed ainfully W i f ia' particular l y partieu • ih°ae to rene ° r ning to s tit t he e 3rmed that et :ea or less co° ll oaf or transpo r, o 'to uncertainvNoi ( t rd in the u e of do th , 4 "iff, t no un cer , o l for every ° a pt": tted the c ° l l -equent oPP r d,e put on 10 ,01 i! both Pe rs. l " fit ere prohat,. , ",,,:f L id relatives vile+ Besides iiir as the AMP A lt ad sailed f° f . e a nested, if i t Ttb; tailed list 01. th furnished wt, , and per°d .„ bl" low any - books.

I am now eighty-six, and am entirely free from any external appear. ance of the complaint. Ms objsct in writing this testi monial is, not merely to express my gratitude for the service you have rendered me, hut to guard my fel!ow sufferers against the use of imperfect trusses.

Sir,-1-I,ving worn trusses 20 year., and suffered the most excruciating pain of strangulated hernia, which oc curred while wearing my trus., and without a doubt should have lost my life but far the great skill and atten tion paid me by Mr. Mayo in the operation. And, not withstanding I had the best medical aid, and, as 1 sup posed, the best trusses that could he procured, my rupture continually increased, and escaped from every truss that I had employed until I had yours; and I am happy to state, that I now feel perfectly comfortable, and more secure, under every position of the body, than at any period even before or since I underwent the operation ; and I feel well assured that such accident would never have taken place, had I then worn a truss on the principle of your patent. I am, Sir, with gratitude, 70, Great Titchtield.st., Mary- Yours, Sr.c. lebone, June 14, 1833. JOHN QUICK. A surgeon of the Royal Navy about sixty years of age, who had been wearing trusses of several different kind, employed one of Cole•s's manufacture, and ere be had half worn it out, threw it aside and left his trusses in London, while he made a tour on the Continent. Being at sea and exposed to severe .veather, a sea-sickness brought on the complaint, and he was compelled a second time to wear his truss, and after wearing it about 12 months, has again been perfectly cured, and does not wear a truss. Sir Astley Cooper knows a case which had been get ting worse for thirty years, and which had escaped a hundred times in a day, and does not escape now from Coles's truss.

STEA.M-BOAT ACCIDENT.—In explanation o f a paragraph i n our P aper o f yesterday respecting an accident occasioned by a steamer running down a boat, we have to state, from information we have received, that the steamer in question was the Endeavour, Capt. JAMES JoNES; the o th er two b oats, t h e D i ana and D i amon d, belonging to the Old Margate Company, were lying by that day It was incorrect to say that any one was drowned ; the gentleman and waterman were saved after being nearly five minutes in the water, and the lady hung by the man rope at the ladder until rescued from h er perilous situation. Both the lady and gentleman were taken on board and landed at Queenhithe. The water maces name was Wm. Jones, of Hungerford. It is now several days that it Las been currently re ported that an important affair took place before Coimbra, on the road to Lisbon, between the armies under Dour mont and Villa Flor, in which the vanguard of the former was completely defeated; but nothing of this bas been officially published ; and it was with a tone of regret, and the most softening terms, that the Madrid Gazette spoke of Migtsel's reverses at Oporto. The Carlo-Absolutist party has been set in extrordinary motion by the publication in the Times of the intercepted correspondence, which has put to light its mancauvres anti plots with the Powers of the north. Seeing itself so seriously compromised, that party seemed to think that nothing remained so be risked by a renewed effort to bring about an intervention in favour of Miguel. At a Cabinet Council lately held in the King's chamber, M. de L:Na renewed the proposition for an immediate intervention ; but the King bad the good sense to oppose himself to it, and so matters remain for the present. The corps of observation on the Portuguese frontiers his, neverthe less, lately received considerabie reinforcements. Five newly recruited regiments of " provincial militia" have been sent to that frontier. Ai. de Zea has intimated to the diplomatic agents of the foreign Governments that this measure has been taken at once to keep off the contagion of democracy spread by Don Pedro in Portugal, and the contagion of the cholera morbus which is preva lent in that country. M. de Zea need not have said anything about the cholera, for it is now sufficiently notorious that no cordons sanitaires or other pre cautions have the power of arresting its progress, as has been proved everywhere, and in Sp tin itself, as it has penetrated into Andalusia arid Huelva, where, however, it has not yet caused much mischief. M. de Zea, finding his favorite scheme opposed, is now exerting himself to bring about an arrangement relative to Portugal, on the conditions proposed by Sir S. Canning, which he had at the time thought proper to reject—that is, the exclusion of Don Pedro and the charter. This now appears to him a desirable pis oiler, because it would be a means of keeping Miguel in view, and making it easy for him to return. Meanwhile M. de Zee and his allies do not fail to make good use of the late impolitic acts of Don Pedro. They have taken care to point them out to the British anti French Governments. The liberal party here, which may now be called the Queen's party, is anxiously waiting for the settlement of the affairs of Portugal, and the establishment of Donna Maria. The men of that party very properly conceive that it would be a means of giving fair play to the united efforts of England and France, and of potting a stop to the incessant intrigues of the Spanish Government anti the northern Powers, which necessarily produce a reacting influence over the progress of improvement in this country. Don Carlos, who seems to be wandering in Portugal like a man who knows not what he ought to do, is now in Abrantes. It is said that a part of his equipages has been seized by a detachment from Dan Pedro's army. The infant Don Francisco and his wife, arrived in Madrid last night, from St. Sebastian, where they had gone to be present at the fetes given in celebration of the jura. MUNICIPAL CORPORATIONS' COM- AIISSION. Sir Francis Pa!grave, one of the Commissioners ap pointed by his Majesty to act under the Municipal Corpo rations' Commission, now sits daily in the Tuwn Clerk's house, at Guildhall, for the purpose of examining the records, in order to supply Parliament with full informa tion as to the existing state of the C wporation, &c. &c, The following is a copy of the circular sent to the several Companies of the City, who have carried everything with so high a hand for such a series of years, and whose ex travagant expenditure has raised the voices, and almost the hands, of the unparticipating citizens violently against them. Copies to the same effect have been sent all through the country : "MUNICIPAL CORPORATIO N COM3LISSION......ENG LAND AND WALES. (Addressed to the Clerk of each Company.) " Sir,—His Majesty having been pleased to issue a Commission to inquire as to the existing state of the several Municipal Corporations in England and Wales, I, being one of the Commissioners, have to inform you that we propose to be at the Guildhall of the City on the 10th day of September, and request you to be prepared with whattver information you can supply on the following pints : " 1. The local limits of the Corporation. " 2. The Charters by which it is constituted. 3. The title of the Corporation, a copy of the govern ing Charter, and date of all the other Charters, 4. The several officers of the Corporation, how and by whom elected or removed, the time for which they hold their respective offices, their respective functions, privile ges, salaries, and incidental emoluments. 5. The mode by which persons become free, their duties, privileges and ernolnnieuts, and the number of resi dent and non-resident freemen. 6. By whom and from whom the ruling hotly of the Corporation is elected. 7. Fees paid on admission to the freedom, or any office in the Corporation, and to whom paid. 8. Courts, criminal and civil, the officers or magistrates presiding or otherwise acting in them ; the extent of their jurisdiction, whether exclusive or otherwise ; the nature of their process what fees paid in them, and to whom, and tables of costs- 9. The juries, grand rnd petty, criminal and civil, by whom and from whom selected. 10. The management of the local police, and the general regulation of the (city or town, as it may be). 11. The superintendance of gaols, ;by whom exercised and under what controol. 12. Fines imposed by the Corporation on their own members or others. 13. The nature of the property ; the amount of the re ceipts of the Corporaticn; from thence derived ; by whom received ; to what purpose, and by whom applied ; how and to whom recounted for. 14. The patronage, ecclesiastical or other, exercised by the Corporation, through whotn dispensed. 15. A schedule of the dates and titles of Local Acts of Parliament relating to municipal government or local taxation. 16. The general state and prospects of the (city or town, as it may he), Your obedient servant, (Signed by the Commissioners). We understand that many of the wealthy Companies in the city of Londo❑ were rather startled at receivining this list of orders. The witnesses are examined upon oath. ANOTHER DARING HIGHWAY ROBBERY IN SURREY.-Another highway robbery was committed in Surrey on NVednesday evening. Mr. Hart, solicitor, re siding at Reigate, was, on his return from Epsom in a four-wheeled chaise, stopped by three men; two darted at the horse's head, and the third jumped into the chaise ; all presented horse-pistols. Mr. H. gave his purse containing two sovereigns and a half, when the tallest of of the three, who was in the chaise, said, you have more. Mr. H. recollected he hail, and took from his packet a paper which contained four sovereigns, two half sove reigns, half-a-crown, two shillings, and a sixpence (71. 15s. in the whole,) silver watch and pocket-book. Mr. Hart had just crossed the road that leads from Ewell common fields, on to the Downs, and was entering the lane leading to Lords Arden's when his horse was seized, as near seven o'clock as possible. Last week a daring son of St. Crispin per formed the extraordinary feat of ascending Grantham church-steeple, a height of 290 feet—whence he descended, bearing a rook's nest, as a trophy of his prowess. EXTRAdRDINARY SIMPLICITY.--On Wed nesday an errand boy, about 15, named Pegg, who was acquitted at the Old Bailey on a charge of having de• camped with the change of a check belonging to a lady, in consequence of an informality in the indictment, called upon policeman Smith, of the G division, to inquire whom he was to thank for the inflamality ?" Smith supposed be was joking, and directed him to Hatton garden Office, where the boy actually went and thanked one of the clerks. We shall always he proud of the progress which we have made in this peaceful and fruitful work, with which the riches of a country and the industry of its inhabitants must ever be intimately connected, and by which the welfare and civilization of one nation will promote the welfare and civirzition of others. England has given the example—who will follow it ? Will France, whose Ministers make such a merit of spread.. ing their influence in Belgium, and who, when reciprocal commercial advantages are proposed, refute our produc tions and treat our merchandize like Cossacks? Let no more be said about influence. It can only be chimerical without an alliance of commercial interests. 'We do not see England, who is desirous of exercising an irflueuee over Portugal, treating the productions of that country with such illiberal severity. But we must not despair. When people study, they observe; and the genera movement will bring over even the most obstinate. We shall then find Treaties concluded by and for commerce itself. Such Treaties will prove of more value than those of Vienna and London. PLYMOUTH, SEPT. 12. The schooner Minn, Porrett, master, from Oporto, bound to Corunna, in ballast, arrived here to-day, having been off Corunna, where she was refused entry for want of a perfect bill of health. The Minx has come to Ply mouth for the purpose of obtaining a clean biil of health, and will proceed to Corunna to load a cargo of goods for Oporto, for which purpose she has been freighted by Portuguese merchants at Oporto ; and it is considered that the Spanish authorities have refused admission to the Minx, not from any alarm as to cholera, hut to oppose every possible annoyance to the Portuguese trade ; so that English and other foreign vessels trailing from the Portu guese ports to those of Spain will have to make an intermediate voyage to England or France to procure the required documents. In the present case it appeared that the Master of the Minx had furnished himself with a bill of health indorsed by our Consul (Colonel Sorrell) at Oporto. This, however, proved insufficient—from what legitimate cause or upon what just grounds remains to b • explained. The Minx brings no political information of consequence. Oporto was recovering rapidly from the dreadful effects of spoliation and bloodshed, which it has latterly fallen to the lot of that city to hear. The military composing Saldanha's corps are estimated at 8,000 strong, at present inactive from various causes. Little appre hension is felt on account of Bourmont's movements, the prevailing opinio❑ there being that he has no force sufficient to ,ffe.et any striking enterprise. His numerical strength is calculated at 16,000, not more than one half of which can be propel ly called soldiers - . The English and French auxiliaries at Oporto are not quite pleased with the Fx-Emperor, by whom theyconsider themselves touch slighted. Trade on the Douro is rapidly reviving, and will require a constant supply of English and other neutral ships, at least till the young Queen be generally recognised. It is untrue that so many as 15,000 pipes of wine had been destroyed by Miguel's party ; not more than 5.000 or 6,000 pipes were destroyed. The property was chiefly that of the Portuguese, and not belonging to English merchants. Some vessels had been chartered to load home wine, &c. It would, however, require some weeks to put it in a fit state for shipment. There were about 30 sail of English merchantmen i❑ the Douro. The Minx sailed from Oporto on the 28th ult., the same day as the Pike packet, and has encountered heavy weather, but nothing like the gales which have ravaged the coasts in Eastern Channels. There was a report current at Davenport this morning, that psitive orders had been sent Cork to prepare 3,000 men for embarkation at a moment's notice. The Cale donia and Revenge remaining there so long without any other apparent destination, gives weight to Ow rumoured intention of Government, to sustain as well as acknowledge the youthful Queen of Portugal, by expediting an armed force to give eclat to her assuming the reigns of Govern ment. The Patriotic Association of Germany, at Paris, has opened a subscription fur such refugees as have taken shelter in France, in consequence of the late political events in Germany.—French. Paper. THE CHAIRMANSHIP OF THE MIDDLE SEX SESSIONS.—The circumstances under which Mr. Const was elected to the above office, are rather curious. Mr. Mainwaring, the Chairman, having suddenly retired, there was only one candidate o❑ the day of election. He was about to be declared elected, when it appeared that he had been a bankrupt. It was then resolved to offer the office to Mr. Const, who was practising as a barrister, and Mr. Coast accepting it, be was elected, although not in Commission of the Peace. This, however, was soon remedied. HINTS TO CHURCIIWARDENS.—We have received for insertion the following communication, signed by a respectable inhabitant cf the township where the transaction is said to have taken place:—.4‘ In a clothing village where a Dissenting College has long existed, and over which the church at Calverly extends her maternal wings, the Churchwarden had various items i❑ his ac count, to which he was afraid the rate-payers would attach the term disallowed.' There was a Committee appointed to examine them, and report thereon, which met at the White Hart Inn last Monday, where they sat down to a splendid dinner. After the dinner the landlord brought glorious glasses, and when each auditor had largely partaken of the Churchwarden's bounty, they passed his accounts (with only one dissentient), and de sired the Overseer of the Poor to pay bins nearly 201., which be bad expended over a rate which had been col lected to the amount of 1001."—Leeds Mercury. PERILOUS SITUATION OF A STEAMER.- On Friday it blew rather a stiff breeze from the N. W., hot not so violent as to deter the steamers, which ply between this port and Liverpool, from proceeding to sea ; accordingly the Abbey, (Marsh) and the Harriet, (Jones) laden with fat cattle, set sail at four o'clock, p.m. Imme diately after they cleared the banks of our harbour's mouth, the wind Caine full round to the northward, and assumed so threatening an aspect, as to induce the .Harriet, which at this time was cff the Blackwater points, to put about, and she accordingly got over the bar in safety. The Abbey, which is a tight, well built ship, of extraordinary power for her tonnage, kept out to sea ; and unfortunately had to encounter one of the heaviest gales we recollect for some time. About seven o'clock, a sailor, who had been paid off in the blentor, a vessel lying at our quay, just returned from America, anti had taken his passage on board the Abbey, to Liverpool, in order to see his wife and family, who went aloft—it blowing very fresh at the time—to reef the topsail, was flung by the violence of the gale off the yard-arm, and coming in contact with the paddle in his fall, was killed on the spot. At this time the vessel was about mid-channel—and every effort to save the stock on board 7.';i3 made, but proved ineffectual. A heavy sea struck her on the lee. quarter, filling the long boat, which they were endeavouring to unship, when the head ropes of the cattle to windward gave way, and they falling to lee ward threw the vessel on her beam ends; at this moment the situation of all o❑ board became most alarm ng. Every effort which skill and exertion could make was resorted to, in order to right the ship—but there was no alternative except throwing the fine stock with which it as laden overboard. This having been accomplished, she was fortunately got up, when she put about for our port, which she reached about six o'clock o❑ Saturday evening, after encountering one of the most violent storms we have been visited with since the memorable gale on Ash Wednesday last. We are sorry to add that have respected townsmen, Messrs.
