gPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS From the discussion uotile army estimates it ap pears that Ireland finds work for 23,000 men, or more than one-fourth of the entire army of the em pire, and if the machinations for producing dis turbance in that country should prove but a littl e more successful than heretofore, its military force must be further, and considerably, augmented. In that case,—and it is surely one which ought to be provided against,—the troops in Great Britain (21,000 men) can he looked upon no otherwise than as a reserve for the Irish army, and ought on no account to be diminished. The portion of the re gular forces thus locked up, or 44,000 men, is about one-half of the entire which the estimates of the Minister call for. With regard to the slave colo nies, it has always been our opinion, that squadrons of men-of-war, in aid of the local militia, were more appropriate as well as more economical pro tectors for those insular dependencies of Great Britain than any given number of marching re giments could be. There is hardly a West India island but Jamaica so extensive dnat a single day's march would nit bring any body of men, after their disembarkation, to whatever spot of the interior might have become the scene of tumult. The present time, indeed, - while the relations between white man and negro are so pre carious, and the pas•ions of both so fearfully excited, might not be well chosen for a terloction of the colonial garrisons; but when the existing storm shall have blown over, and ma. ters shall have come round to an average state of tranquillity, it will be most 'desirable to diminish the amount of troops in those tnwlrslesome climates, and to throw the defence of Ore colonies on their landed proprietors, and on the nearest ships of war. A question having been raised on Wednesday evening as to the wisdom of !rat retAittibg the protectorship of the lonian Islands insteeq of getting them surrendered,to Greece, the , A.r...swer is, obviously, that it is better for England to keep possession, now she has them, that to find herself tinder the necessity of retaking possession, not from Greece, but from the hands of some Power—and such a Power we all know there is—which might, by bullying or manoeuvring, by stratagem or force, contrive to wrest the islands from the feeble grasp of Ktrig Otho, " and convert them into formidable military and naval depots, for the control of the neighbouring states in the Levant. If Greece were once strong enough, and Russia sufficiently inoffensive, to re lieve us from all reasonable apprehension with re gard to the ultimate fate of these islands, we should, for ourselves, rejoice to see Great Britain fairly rid of.all concern in them; and, with one foot on Gibraltar, and the other on Milts, virtually, though not ostentatiously, bestriding the whole policy of the Mediterranean. With Malta and Giltralrar to advance from, and retreat upon, this country need have little alarm, though Mehemet Ali take hold of yria ) , and France second the Ottoman power in nominating. Bashaws to Algiers. Whatever, we !repeat, a future period may admit of, it will just now be shallow and thriftless policy to weaken the armed force , of, Great Britain. While adverting to the army eatimates, we may take occasion to add that an arrangement long contemplated is now accom plished by the removal of Sir John Hobbouse to the Secretaryship or Ireland, vice Mr. St an l e y, who succeeds Lord Goderich in the Colonial-office, the latter Minister lacing accepted the Pr vy Seal. The writs Were moved for last night. The suc cessor to Sir John Hobhouse has not yet been an nounced, but Mr. Edward Ellice has, we believe and hope, accepted the appointment. With regard to the Colonial Department, we must frankly ex press our hope that in the delicate questions which are now at issue with the colonists the late Secre tary for Ireland (a man of unquestionable talent) will be enabled to supply the only defect with which even his enemies charge him, by keeping a more efficient watch over his own temper than he has done hitherto, either as an Irish Minister or as a Parliamentary debater. Let Mr. Stanley be but true to himself and to his own great powers, and there is no elevation which he may not, none which he must not, reach, nor any, ,difficulty which he can fail of surmounting. Let him bethink himself of the suffering condition of the eolonists,—of the already desperate state of their fortunes„—that the mortgages of most of them cover the fee simple of their estates, when taken at the very highest value; and then, when called upon to coerce them, which he must do ere long, let the Right Hon. Gentleman remember what a Noble Lord, Under- Secretary in that office over which Mr. Stanley is about to preside, has been accused, we know not how justly, of too frequently forgetting,—viz., that anxious and distressed men, with irretrievable ruin gaping for them, whether they address him as in dividuals or as delegates from pub is bodies, have a right, if not to sympathy and indulgence, at least to mild and courteous treatment. The fortiter in re does not always demand a departure from the sua titer in modo. The West Indians have behaved absurdly, but as Mr. Stanley has them at his feet, he will lose nothing of his vantage-ground by avoid ing to exasperate, offend, or disgust them. As to the appointments of Sir John Ilobhonse and Mr. Ellice, we see much reason to congratulate the country upon them both. The two Members are not only active men of business, but remarkable for sound judgment and manly firmness.—Times. Mr. Ewan asked leave of the House last night to introduce a Bill for the purpose of removing the ass-zes of the county of Lancaster to Manchester and Liverpool. It having been generally under stood that no opposition would be offered, a state ment was made by the Hon. Mover, of the grounds on which this Bill was sought for ; and, like others of a similar description, which have latterly been passsd, this Bill would have been introduced as a matter of course, had it not been for the injudicious and uncalled-for interposition of the Solicitor-Gene. ral, who, apparently desirous of assuming a little con sequence, recommended its postponement, with a view to the introduction of a general measure, con ferring the power on the Crown of determining the places at which assizes should be held. This is, undoubtedly, a very advisable course to follow. The power of fixing the places most convenient for the administration of justice in the provinces, ought unquestionably to rest with the Executive Government, or at least with the Privy Coun cil, and a general measure of the nature pro posed must prove beneficial. But we know too well the delays attending the arrangement and introduc tion of any general measures, to think that the sug gestions of such a plan ought to form a just excuse for delaying cotr.pliance with a demand at once so just and reasonable as that of the whole southern divisio❑ of Lancashire for speedier and cheaper justice. Lawyers, with scarcely any exception, have always proved the most serious bar to judicial im provement; and even when there exists in any of the class a disposition to amend any of the defects of the system in which they had been brought up, there still remains enough of crotchet and a stickling to special pleading habits to defeat the good intentions which are entertained by them. Such, no doubt, is the,cause of the course pursued by the Solicitor- General last night. Ultimately the debate was adjourned till the l3ih April, on the suggestion of Lord Alt horp, in order that, if a general measure were not then announced, the partial relief sought for by this Bill might be afforded. The Members for the southern division of Lancashire, and the great towns within it, will of course take care that t h e present delay shall riot ultimately defeat the measure.—Morning chronicle. We are happy to find that there is now a pros pect of the e.tailishmerit of L oca l C ourts in die country. Lord Brougham last night brou g h t i„ a B 11 for establishing in certain parts of the ki ng d om Courts of Local Jurisdiction. They are to be pre sided over by a Sergeant at Law, or by a Barris ter of at least ten years' standing—men of such character and weight as would give confidence to suitors. The amount of debt for which actions may be brought, in consequence of repeated discussions with the Law Commissioners, is lowered from 100/. to 2W.; but actions for damages for slander, seduc tion, assault, and the like, may be maintained for 511. With a view to show the extent. of business wiihin these limits, his Lordship observed, that of 93,000 affidavits of debt, in the Courts of West minster, in 1826, the last year for which there were any returns, no fewer than 30,000 were for debts tinder 20/, and 48 000 for debts under 50/., while the remaining 15,000 only were for large sums. In 1829, 890 suits were tried in London and Middle sex, 31:3, or oae-third of which (including actions for damages as well as debt) were for matters under 20/. An important provision in the Bill is, that actions to any amount, including tithe, freehold, or any other matter, may be adjudicated in the Local Courts, by consent of the parties concerned. An experiment is also to he made, whether it be pos sible to make these Courts act like the Reconci liation Courts of Denmark and Norway, which have had the effect of preventing much litigation. And, finally, it is intended to gi,ve Bankruptcy cases to the Local Courts. As the Courts are to move from pl ice to place, sitting every month except August, ill all the causes in each district are disposed of, it may be possible, said his Lordship, that one Judge shall be able to transact the business of three or four counties. We need hardly observe, that even with the limitations with regard to amount, this Court can hardly fail to be productive of great benefit to the country. 'We are not sorry that the experiment is attempted fist on a low scale; because this si lences opposition, and if the experiment succeeds, that which is now very limited may be extended, and that which is optional may he made imperative. In Scotland, the Small Debt Courts introduced in 1795 were limited to 3/. 6s. Bd.; they afterwards tried debts of 5/.,-and, at last, powers to try sum marily all debts under 12/. were given.—Morning Chronicle, The buz of changes in the Cabinet turns out to have had some meaning in it. There was, it seems, a movement in the hive, though the movement was not preparatory to a flight. In fact, it was nothing but what military melt tall a step consequent upon the retirement of Lord Durham, and affecting three font of the principal officers of Government. Lord Goderich has left the Colonial Office for that oe the Lord Privy Seal. Mr. S anley has left the fish Secretary's Office for that of the Colonies. Sir John Hobhouse has left the Horse Guards to become Secretary for Ireland; and Lord Howick succeeds Sir John as Secretary at War. Without qhestioning the talents of any of the above-named phrties, we must say that not one of them has be queathed " a bed of roses" to his successor, or has left his department in a better condition than he found it. At the same time it is impossible not to see that some awk warrlites, of position have been got rid of by the new arrangement. The removal of Mr. Stanley, in particular, was a boon for which we hope neither the R ght Hon. Gentleman nor Ireland will prove tingrat• ful. Lords Goderich, and Howick we will answer for it, left the Colonies without a pang; and if Sir John Hobhouse shed tears at parting from the Horse Guards, it was more `than the Horse Guards did at 'parting with Sr John. Still, as we leave intimated already, they all had good, reason for congrattilating each other on being advanced to what they now are, front situa tions in which they were more known than ad trfired.—Morning Herald. Mr. Robinson has done himself great credit, and the country some good, by motion for a Select Committee, the object of which was to substitute a graduated property tax.in lieu of the complicated, burdensome, expensive, and unequal system of tax ation which now presses on the national industry. Though the motion was lost on a division, the argu ment was triumphant, and, constituted as Parlia ment now is, if argument does not hit the Hou•e in the first instance, it may be expected to hit in the rebound—to tell hack from the public mind upon the mind of the Legislature, and produce conviction at second hand, in spite of the discouragement of a bad beginning. But Mr. Robinson's was not a bad beginning ; any thing short of success was less than it, deserved ; hut still, taking into account the bold ness of the proposal, and the distracting variety of topics which solicit attention at the present moment, the minority was too large to create despondence in any party except the party to whose opinions it was opposed. There are few persons, we be- Feve, capable of exert sing an unbiassed judg rm nt on the question, who do not see that we must come to a property tax at last—n:4y, that we are fast coming to it, through the failure of other sources of taxation. Ministers must them selves be aware not only of the appalling fact that industry sinks exhausted tinder the weight of the burdens imposed on it, but that patience is begin ning to give way. They must know that there are taxes which, if inserted in the Budget of this year, will endanger their financial scheme, through the obnoxious light in which they are regarded by the public. If Ministers cannot, or will not, make way for the remission of such taxes, by reducingthe ex penditure—a process of which we can "as yet dis cover no trace or symptom in their proceedings-- there remains no other course, so far, as we can per ceive, but that of a property tax to relieve the in dustry and satisfy the feelings and demands of the country. At all events, if there be another, the sooner the Chancellor of the Exchequer provides himself with the machinery and apparatus for putting it in motion the better, as the occasion for employing it cannot be far distant, unless a change, like a mi racle, should be wrought in the condition of the people, or a change sill more violent in their de sires. One of the most curious incidents in the debate was the hit made at Lord Althorp arid his colleagues by Mr. Robinson, on the score of their former vote in favour of a property tax when brought forward by Mr. Poulett Thomson. To be sure, there was this broad difference in the circumstances to establish a prima facie case in the reaQoning, that all the R;ght lion. Gentlemen were our of power %, hen they supported the motion, and in power when they op posed it. This would be enough to satisfy some persons—perhaps to satisfy us—but Lord Althorp undertook to explain the phenomenon. In doing so his Lordship gave the Hou , e to understand that . since he came into office he knew more about tax ation than he did before, and that the result of It increased knowledge was to refuse a motion which he had once supported. But his Lordship ought to have stated what his increased knowledge was. It was scarcely generous to have kept it to himself, especially as his example could be quoted both ways to the confusion of those who might be anxious to avail themselves of his authority. There is one ad vantage, however, arising from the course which hie Lordship and his colleagues have pursued. We can enjoy the pleasure of their company whichever road we take,and can at the same momen , contradict and agree in their opinions. But we think it would not be difficult to offer another solution of the problem than that which suggested itself to Lord Althorp. We agree with his Lordship that it is much easier to convince either the House or the people what taxes ought to be taken off than what taxes ought to be laid on, and in this hint we think we can catch a glimpse of the real cause of the inconsistency tnani ested by the present Government. The fact, we believe, is, that they find a large portion of the aristocracy adverse to the proposed transfer of taxa 'ion from industry to capital, and they fear that party mote than they lore their own consistency, or even their own conviction of ‘vliat is right. At all events let us hope that as the Ministers have already taken both sides of the question, they will feel the less difficulty in resuming their former position when circumstances favour another change. Horses, we know, prefer the journey homeward; and though Minis ers of State are not creatures of instinct, they may be suspected of some leaning to wards the opinions which they once entertained.— Morning Herald. The changes in the Administration, the approach of which, on►y a few hours before their official promulgation, the Ministerial jinni-I.lls still continued to, deny, have taken place, and the new writs have been oidered for filling the vacancies in the House of Commons, which they have occasioned. Lord Goderich has been removed from the colonial de partment, to repose f or a ti me in the easy dignity of Lord Privy &ed. He is succeeded at the Colo nial Office by Mr. S•ariley, who makes room for Sir J. Hobhouse as the Chief Secretary for Ireland. These changes, it is understood, are but the fore runners of other changes still more important; and they are interest:ng, therefore, not merely on their own account, but as they may be considered indicative of the character of the future changes for which they seem to prepare the way. In both these respects, we are disposed to look upon the recent alteration in the construction of the Cibinet as upon the whole satisfactory. The removal of Lord Goderich from an important and influential office, to one of which the duties are little more than nominal, must, we think, he gratifying to all parties. His Lordship, since the period when he was Chancellor of the Ex chequer, under the leadership of Mr. Canning, has been gradually sinking in the estimation of the com munity, and had at length arrived at a point of de pression incompatible with the possession of any other than a si necure office even in such an Adminis tration as the present. It is a further eratification to the country to believe that the Noble Lord ob tains the Seals merely as a disguise to his disgrace, that he will speedily be out of office altogether, and that all the other renegades who have united them selves to the present Administration are des.ined speedily to be overtaken by the same fate. It is, we hope, also an omen of good to the inte rests chiefly concerned that Mr. Stanley should have been appointed to supersede in the Co lonial Office the feeble Nobleman who was lately at its head. We do not wish to become the eulogists of Mr. Stanley, brit we must say that his past conduct has greatly deceived us as to his character if it be not quite certain that from the moment of his entrance into the Colonial Office the influence of that mischievous faction of saintly hy pocrites which has so long been allowed to predomi nate in that department of the Government, and which has been productive of so much injury to one of the most important of our na•ional interests, will be at an end. There can he no dominion so fatal to the peace and security of the West India interest as the dominion of the conventicles; and into what ever errors Mr. Stanley may have fallen, or may fall hereafter, that of yieldingimplicit obedience to the au thority of cant will probably never be of the number. It is at least something to have a Colon al Minister whose fault-, if faults he should commit, will be his own, and who has a mind too enlightened and a sprit too lofty to take forhis guide the cabal of Al. dermanbury and the tea-tables of Clapham. The elevation of Mr. Stanley to the office of Se cretary of State will probably be followed by his recognition as the Ministerial leader in the House of Commons, a sta'ion for which Lord Althorp is manifestly deficient in every one of the nec ssary qualifications. But this is a station in which the Reform B 11 has made it next to impos sible for any Minister to succeed, and in which it may admit of ome doubt, indeed, whether the highest talent or the most grovelling incapacity have the best chance of success. Sir John Cam Hob house, in undertaking to apply the coercive measure in Ireland which he has so consistently advocated in Parliament, must of course have made up his mind to take a final leave of his late constituents, the electors of Westminster, since he can hardly ex pect them to abandon, for his sake, all the princi ples which farmed the original basis of his connec iien with them. We shall wait with some curiosity to see which of the new Government boroughs created by the Reform Bill will be selected-(one of the clesest and safest it will naturally be) to lose its present Member, by the old hackneyed device of the Chiltern Hundreds, in order to have the ho nour thrust upon it of finding a seat for the new Irish Secretary.—Morning Post. The new volume of the Standard Novels is, it seem-, to consist of Mrs. INCHBALD:S celebrated Fic tions—" A Simple Story," and Nature and A, t," com plete, an one volume. These Tales, for or iginaliv, pas sion, and general intensity of purpose, are inftrior to none in t,ur lanpage. To commend them is superfluous, as tney have long been fixed in the hearts of readers of all classes. We are glad, therefore, to see thst they are to be embodied in the above National Series. A curious case will be found in our Parlia mentary report, that of ELIZABETH ROBINSON, ordered to attend at the bar of the House of Commons, for refusing to answer questions put to her by the Liver old Election o , mmittee, as she was in fear of her life. She refused to tell by whom she had been threatened. It was very pro. perly decided by the House, that intimidation was not sufficient excuse in such a case—that the House ought to extend its protection to her—and th it she might rely on that protection. Were such a reason to be allowed, all inquiries with a view to discover guilt would be useh-ss, for who that is guilty would not endeavour to screen him self by attempts at intimidation, and bow feiv witnesses would have resolution to incur the risk of the mere allega- ti .n, if intimidation were to ahlnlve them from the neces sity of giving ,videnee?—adorning Chronicle. THE OPERATION OF LITHOTRITY.—In the Lancet are the details of the case of Mr. Wm. CARD, of 111 , rthampton, who appears to have been relieved by Mr. COSTELLO, the eminent lithutriti.t, from the horrible sufferings he had endured for twenty-one years from a stone the size of a pull , t's egg, almost without pain arid without bloodshed. We are surprised that this operation has not become more general) , known, and i!t3 benefits and advantages appreciated, both in and out of the pro fession; but we have been repeatedly astonished of late to find individuals in the educated rank of society labouring under this dreadful disease, and about to Undergo the painful, bloody, and dangerous operation of lythotomy, without being aware that they might be relieved from their sufferings without submitting to so dreadful and hazardous a remedy. We believe that some of the leading surgeons now refuse to practise lythotomy ; indeed, we know that two or three of the mo•t celebrated surgeons and lytboto mists now invariably consign their patients to Mr. Cos- TELL°. SINGULAR Pit ENOMENON.—The following description of a living animal in the eye of a child, is fur nished by a me .ical gentleman intimately acquainted with the fict :—" I shall most willingly give you the informa tion ' , Attired, as, through the kindness of the medical gentleman who has brought the patient to this city, I have had repeated opportunities of minutely examining the case. The girl is about seven years old ; and in the month of January last was seiz-d with severe inflamma tion in the left eye. This was subdued by the usual means, but her medical attendant was shortly after wards requested to examine the eye, when he discovered the. existence of the little animal in its anterior chamber. At present the eye is pretty free from any marks of in. flammation, and on looking into the front part of it a round globule will be perceived, of a bluish-white colour, anout the size of a small pearl, or two lines in diameter. At the lower edge of this body a small white substance is perceived, which, when the animal is at rest, lies within the circular globule, but at intervals this is pushed out or elon eated in the form of a proboscis, with two little slickers at the end. It does this frequently and with great quickness, and every time it is pushed out and drawn inwards, the shape of the animal changes from a to that of an oblong or oval. This motion also makes its whole body move upwards and downwards in a slieht degree in ti-e eye. The anitnil is not fixed in any way to the membranes of the eye—it fl iats freely in the aqueous humour, and when the child's head is turned backwards, or round fom one side to the other, the animal traverses the whole horn chamber of the eye. This animal is a species of hydatid, called cis lieereus. It is found frequently in tr e brain of the sheep, giving rise to the disease called staggers or sturdy, and has been found also in pigs, and Oct asionaily in tree centre of the human brain, as also in the cellular parts of the museh sof the body. Its structure is exceedingly simple, consisting of a membrane or circular bag, which is the stomach, and occupies the whole of its body, and o f a proboscis, which it can. push outwards and inwards by a muscular contraction, at the end of which is an ori ft c corresponding to a mouth. There is no excretory opening, and if it has to eject any of the lymph on which it feeds, it must do go through its porous skin, or, perhaps, i he e e polypus, through th e mout h. W hen it moves the p : : ob ci, it most probably is in the act of feeding. NO instance, that I am aware of, has hithert o occurred where this animal was found in the eye. This case, then, is highly interesting, as one of the simplest of animals is thus presented to our view, in a transparent medium, where its every action can be minutely watched. It appears to cause no inconvenience to the child further ti t an a pat tial inter ruption of sight when it is interposed beta yen the pupil and the object to be seen. I am, &c. " W. RHIND.

On Monday, the centenary of the hirth of. Dr. Priest. ley was celebrated at Freemasons' Tavern, where 150 gentlemen, comprising some of the most eminent scientific personages in the kingdom, sat down to dinner. Dr. nglon preside ; on his right and left we observed Mr. Lubbock (Treasurer and Vice-President of the Royal Society), Mr. Hatchett, Di. Bostock, Dr. Daubeny, Dr. Roget, Professor Cumming, &c. &c. There were also present—Count Funchal, Sir George Cayley, Mr. George Wood, M.P., Mr. Halliburron, M. P , Mr. piiiiips, M.P., Mr. Havire., M.P., Mr. D. Gaskell, M.P., Mr. W. Smith, &c. After dinner, and the usua l toasts— Tile CHAIRMAN rose to pi opo,e The. Memory of Dr. Pr e-tley." Dr. Babington, we regret to say, spoke in so extremely low a tone that it cv.ita next to impossible for its (though we were conveniently placed) to catch more than part of an occasi inal sentence. We understood him to allude to the valuable discoveries 01 Dr. Priestley, and he mentioned art occurrence which took place under his (Dr. Bibington's) own observation in the neighbourhood of his late residence (Aldermanbuty), in which the principles of those discoveries were rendered available in saving the lives of two individuals who had lost the power of respiration in consequence of sleeping where charcoal was burni ng . The next toast was " The Memory of Dr. Priestley's Coadjutors deceased," a long list, tne Chairman observed, beginning with Black anti Cavendish, and ending with Davy and Wollaston. On " the Univasity of Oxford and Dr. Daubeny" being drunk, Dr. DA URENY returned thanks. On " she Un.versity of Cambtide and Professor Cum ming.' being drink, Pi oh- ssor CUMMING returned thinks. ('n " the Rapti Society, the_Duke of Sussex, and Mr. Lubbock" being drunk, Lusitocic returned thanks, and stated that but fur indisposition his Royal Highness would have attend. d. This compliment to Dr. Priestley was grati'ying to the Royal S..ciety, for he had been one of its member-, and its transactions were the depositories of his discoveries. The society had not been unmindful of the great merit of Dr. Priestley's discoveries, for one of his papers, on the properties of air, had gained the Copley medal. It contained the analysis of atmospheric air, and the experi ments relative to the receiving touristic acid over quick silver. On the health of Mr. Farad .y being drunk, in con junction wi.h the Royal Institution, Mr. FARADAY eulogized the properties of Dr Priestley's mind, which was altogether free from that prejudice which of en hung about acute and ingenious men, and which influenced not only the judgment but the senses. Dr., Priestley had attained his great discoveries by laying aside all preconceived . notions, and following up the latest idea which experiment had proved. He acknowledged himself indeiit,d to Dr. Priestley in the course of study and ex periment he had puisueil. _ _ Mr. J. TAYLOR, in returning thanks on behalf of the Smeatunian Society of Civil Engineers, gave an interests ing account of the connect:on of Dr. Priestley with that society, as well as of his early literary and scientific history. He reht d a variety of facts showing his wonderful ac tivity and application of mind. He became a tutor at a dissenting academy, where he taught Hebrew, Greek, Latin, French, and Italian, besides astronomy. In one of his visits to London he proposed to Dr. Franklin to write a history of electricity, arid in le-s than a year he pro duced that history, though he had perpetual occupation with other pursuits. In some of his experiments on car bonic acil gas, he conceived that water might be impreg nated with it ; he communicated his idea to the Admiralty and to the College of Physicians, and the result was, that he published his discovery in a shilling book (for he was always ready to give the public the full benefit of all his discoveries) and those who drank 'soda water were indebted for it to Dr. Priestley. Similar compliments were paid to other individuals and societies, and Were acknowledged on their behalf by Mr. Hatchets, Dr. Bostock, Mr. Guillimard, Dr. Turner, the Hey. John Currie, Mr. A. Atkin, Dr. Roger, Mr. Chit dren, and Mr. Pepys. The health of Mr. John Finch, the grandson of Dr. Priestley, was drunk. Dr. PARIS proposed the health of their venerable Chair man, Dr. Babington, which was suitably acknowledged front the Chair. „ LONDON HUSBANDS.—The series o f original paper, entitled ” Cu. ious Customs of the County of Mgd ales.x," which, we understand, are to be commenced in the April Number of the" Court M.ggeziae," report attri buteS to the pen of its accomplished Editor, the Hon.

During his confinement in Rending gaol his personal appearance had urpiergone consider-tide alteration. He had become considerably stouter, and his rough, hard-looking, weather-beaten countenance had as sumed a florid complexion and a plumpness which destroyed much of the to irked character of his features. His dress, since his conviction, was most grotesque, all the right side of it being of bright yellow, and all the left side of a purple brown. His wooden leg (a new one, worn for the first time on his trial) was painted sky blue, and, to complete the tout ense►nble, lie wore a blue cloth cap, with a red border and a white tassel on the top. The yellow and purple brown is the prison dress, worn to detect those who escape ; the rest is according to the taste of the wearer. STRoUll.—The inhabitants of this town have been thrown into a state of considerable ferment from the following cause. The parish of Stroud is a perpetual curacy, which has been held for many years by the Rev. Mr. SEAGRAM, but the duty has been performed for about 30 years by his curate, the Rev. Dr.WILLIAms, a gentle man who, from his religious zal, piety, and exemplary conduct, is held in the most universal respect and affection by the whole of the parishioners, consisting of upwards of S 000 persons. The Rev. Mr. SEAGRAM, in consequence of having been preferred to another living, vacated that of Scrou I, and the Bishop of the diocese (Gloucester) was requested by the parish to appoint the Rev. Dr. WILLIAMS to the vacant perpetual curacy. Instead, however, of complying with the request his Lordship presented it to a young clergyman, the Rev. T. Poweee, who notified to the Doctor that his services would not be required after the 2511 March. As soon as this fact became publi known, the greatest sensation was produced ; petitions were prepared and forwarded to the Bishop, staring the injury which would be done to the cause of religion by superseding a venerable clergyman, who was so unprecedenteilly be loved by his flack, who had officiated in the parish church for 25 years, and whose means of subsistence fur himself and a family of ten children would be thus taken away, and conjuring his Lordship to re-consider the eubj-et. These remonstrances failing of effect, a com mittee, consisting of the principal inhabitants of the town, has been formed ; it has been decided to dispute the right of presentation by the Bishop, there being reason to believe that the power is vested in the parishioners, only that it hae been disused for some years. Subscriptions to the amount of many hundreds of pounds have been alrei,dy tendered, for the purpose of bringing the metier to issue; which, at present, waits the opinion of a gentleman leaned i• the law...—Monmouthshire Merlin.

IRON TRADE.—The late advances upon iron, we are happy to state, are full) maintained, and a further one, we are advised by a StAfordshire correspon dent, is in contemplation in that pa of the kingdom. The present price of bar-iron, 61., at Newport and Cardiff is still, however, a very low one, when compared with the rate at which this imprtant article of our manufacture has usually been shipped from the respective iron pons of South Wales. A correspondent, who resides near the Maestec Iron Not ks, Morgan, says, The quantity of i(pi e ) that has been e xp orte d f rom t hi s place d ur i ng the elest year to the coast of France alone exec-ds 7,000 tons, and large orders of Castings, gas pipes, &c., have been executed for different parts of England and Leland. Orders are received daily, and trade seems to revive to its former state. The Company have also found a very supe rior vein of bituminous coal, for which a very ready sale in the L •ndon and o her markets has teen obtained, and they intend shipping 150 tons daily.—Cambrian. On Ftiday last Mr. JAM ES M‘RosTIE, farmer at Druinwhare, about three miles from Critff, met with a serious and neatly fatal accident. While engaged at the thrashing-mill, mil endeavouring to clear away some straw which had got entangled about the machinery, one of his hands was unfortunately caught hold of , y the roller., when the arm was speedily pulled in a. far as the shoulder. One of the servants hearing the alarm, and su.pecting something to he wrong, had the presence of mind instantly to turn off the water, which, in all pro bability, was the means of savin, the unfortunate man's life. So firmly was the arm jammed between the rollers, that several efforts to free it were found unavaiing ; nor was it until one of the posts, into Which the rollers were fi xe d, was cut away that the sufferer was relieved from his painful situation. Medical aid was quickly procured, but the arm was found to be mangled in such a manner as to render immediate amputation indispensable. The arm was accordingly cut off a little below the shoulder—an operation which the unfortunate gentleman susta ned with the greatest fortitude.
