Pozzo Pt BORGO has not been inactive since his arrival in London. On. Thursday be contrived to visit all the Ambassadors except one, M. VAN DE WEYER, whom he passed on the stairs in his afternoon visit to the Foreign office, without noticing him, and yesterday he had a long conference with the Prussian Am bassador, and another with M. de 'I'ALLEY RAND ; but the most interesting of his movements here was a visit to a distinguished Conservative of the Upper House of Parlia ment, to whom he had letters of introduction from his Court. The Russo Corsican is much mistaken if he thinks to intrigue successfully against free principles in this country, with the miserable faction which the Reform Bill has overthrown. If Ministers had thought it neces sary to increase their strength by holding out the danger of Holy Alliance interference, they could not have devised any better scheme than th e visit of M. Pozzo DI BORGO as Plenipo tentiary Extraordinary from the despot of Russia to our broken down Tories. NICHOLAS is in reality the game of the Liberals, whilst he is labouring to crush their efforts to emancipate the slaves of Europe from the dominion of their chiefs. We stated on Thursday on the authority of a letter from Paris, that the Austrian Ambassador at that Court, Count D'APPONY, had requested to be allowed to dispense with the task of deli- vering the address of felicitation in the name of the Diplomatic Corps, on New Year's Day, and that the Government had refused to accede to the request. The firmness of the Government produced, as was seen by our extracts from the French Papers yesterday, the customary speech, although not precisely in the customary terms. M. D'APPONY, although exceedingly polite, was exceedingly tame. His speech wants the spirit with which the representatives of friendly Sovereigns usually compliment those to whom they are accredited. There is not a sentence in it which would fix the charge of inconsistency upon Austria, if, ten minutes after her Minister had pronounced it, he had announced the receipt of instructions to make a formal declaration of war. M. D'APPONY says the object of the dif ferent Powers of Europe is the maintenance of peace, and a certainty of the future tranquillity, order, and internal prosperity of France—a ge neral profession which binds none of the Holy Alliance to support the present system of Government in France, for how easy would it be for M. d'APPoNY to turn round and declare that the tranquillity of France could only be maintained by the restoration of the bigoted family who were lately at the head of the State. He talks, indeed, of being, impressed with confidence in the pacific inten tions of the King of the FRENCII, but there is not one word indicative of the wish of the Holy Alliance to see France great and happy under its present dynasty, and with its present views. As a whole, the speech is a master piece of diplomacy, for it gives no opening for censure, and, on the contrary, furnishes a pretext for the expression of a satisfaction which it is impos .ible to feel ; but, situated as M. D'APPONY was, being compelled 'to choose between an open rupture with the Government by refusing to deliver the customary speech, and the possi bility of compromising his Government by ex pressions in favour of the constitutional system in France, the speech which he delivered could not have been better devised if it had been com posed by METTERNICII himself. The funds have risen in both countries, on this piece of diplomatic cajolery ; but the Stuck Exchange is a poor political barometer, and woe to him who places faith in its fluctua tions. FRANCIS MOORE is not more fal lible than the wiseacres of the Stock Exchange. For the funds to rise 2 per Cent. on M, D'An- PONY'S speech, is not more reasonable than for me n to attach importance to the astrological computations of Mr. M ooRE. There is, how ever, a better ground for the high quotation of the public funds. Men of reflecting minds see in the firmness of the British and French Govern ments, a guarantee for the duration of peace. ['hey know that whatever Russia may wish, and Austria devise, must be without effect so long as France and England show a determination to maintain the preponderance which constitutional Governments, when well managed, must ever have over despotic states. As Russia, Austria, and Prussia gave way before Earl GREY, when the triumph of Reform enabled him to hold a high and dignified tone, so must the firmness of Lord GREY and Marshal SOULT, in the pre sent state of Europe, produce a result in favour of peace. Russia and Austria dare not provoke Great Britain and France, whilst they are united and firm. They may show their teeth indeed, hut they dare not bite. The returns for the Quarter's Revenue, ending this day, will not be made up until very late this evening, or early to-morrow morning. At the present moment, however, they show a de ficiency of about a quarter of a million on the quarter, and a surplus of about half a million on the rear. We have often had occasion to lament the existence of embarrassments or evils which have arisen out of departures from principle. The establishment of a system by which a subsistence is insured to the idle, the im provident, and the vicious, at the expense of the industrious and provident, is now, in spite of the cant of the seeming hu manity of the Sadler school, 'pretty generally acknowledged to be one of the grossest viola tions of principle, which the ignorance of men ever caused them to fall into. Like all such, however, it is beginning to work its own cure ; the dreadful evils with which' it threatens us are beginning - to be seen, and the ne cessity is generally felt of treading back our steps. But in order to prevent us falling asleep over our conviction, some little circumstance is ever and anon turning up, to warn us to act upon it. One which has just occurred, we are about to lay before our readers. It is well known that, in some of the southern counties, paupers have increased, not so much from any addition to their numbers from failure of work, although that cause has no doubt ope rated, as from pauper children marrying at the ages of eighteen, nineteen, and twenty, without a chance before them of being able to maintain a family by their labour. At Canterbury the evil appears to have risen to a great magnitude ; and, we suppose, with a view to check it, as also from the impossibility - of accommodating each couple with an apartment, it has of late been customary to lodge men and their wives in separate parts of the workhouse. That the consequences have been such as are nar rated in the following paragraph from the Kent Herald, will surprise no one : " Canterbury Workhouse was thrown into confusion on Thursday night, by a number of the married men forcing their way to the apartments of their wives, with whom they were resolved to sleep, in defiance of the rules of the house. The following night they attempted a repetition of this conduct, and it was not without the aid of consta bles that they were ejected. Same of the offenders being without families, were expelled the house, and the others were committed to Bridewell. It is right to say, that a doubt has existed in many minds as to the propriety of this regulation thus infringed." We pronounce no opinion, one way or the other, upon the propriety of the regulation ; for we are satisfied that no measure which does not strike at the root of the evil can be efficient. Those who have married upon the faith of coming upon the poor-rates, ought still to have a title to relief, upon condition of work ing hard for it, so hard that they may feel as the Rev. Gentleman who has done so much towards ameliorating the condition of the poor, and lowering the poor-rates in Berkshire, ex presses it, " the parish to be the hardest task. master and worst paymaster" they can apply to, All who marry, or have illegitimate children, after a certain time, should be cut off from the receipt of any parochial relief whatever. Till this, or something like this be done, in conjunction with the diffusion of education, the poor who have been demoralized by the present system, will never learn that their being happy, prospe rous, and independent, or miserable and de graded, depends upon themselves. We fear that this is a subject which Statesmen have been unwilling thoroughly to examine, idleness and sentiments of mistaken humanity rather inducing them to give their money, than their time and a ttention. Having this fear upon us, we were much gratified the other day at observing that the LORD CHANCELLOR had a long interview with Miss MARTINEAU. No one is better qualified to give interest to a repulsive and un grateful, though deeply important subject, than this accomplished lady ; and if Lord BROUGHAM have not yet seriously turned his attention to the ultimate consequences of the poor laws,or if he be prejudiced in favour of the principle of the pre sent system, we trust that his acquaintance with her, will engage him to examine the question or lead to his conversion in favour of her truly enlightened benevolence. A correspondent of the Morning chronicle, who writes under the ironical signature of " ATHANASILTS, jun.," in a letter, whose in- formation is supposed to be derived from a tolerably authentic source, mentions some cir cumstances, as regards the projected Irish Church Reform, of a very gloomy complexion : ' The Reforming Government (as I have heard) mean to propose an establishment of Bishops for Ireland, more than double of ours in proportion !—And with such noble incomes !—two six thousands a-year, and eight four thousands a-year !—an annual sum of 44,0001. to defray .he expense of Bishops for the newly-modelled Church in Ireland !—I had thought, in my grief and despondence at the app Irent approach of the death of Church corruption, that the Reforming Government would so newly model the Irish Church Establishment as to remove the just indigna tion and discontent of the Roman Catholic population; and at the same time render the Protestant establish ment, freed from worldly ambition, pride and luxury, an effectual instrument of preserving, and even extending, ' amid general peace and contentment, the Protestant Religion in Ireland. And under this depressing belief, I took for granted, that at the utmost they would not think of proposing more than one Archbishop, and four Bishops, for the newly-modelled Irish establishment. To the Archbishop I supposed they would think it right to give about five thousand, or four thousand a year ; and to each of the four Bishops, about 3,0001. or 2,500/. a year; so that about 16 0001. would be sufficient for the new establishment of Bishops for Ireland ; and that thus a far greater portion of Irish Church funds would be available for the frugal but respectable maintenance of useful Clergy of the Protestant Church in Ireland, and for other purposes of church property, the promotion of which would so much tend to the tranquillizing of Ireland, to the welfare of that country, and the popularity and credit of the Administration. So, my friend, I reasoned on the probable nature of the reform of the Church Establish ment for Ireland. But lam happy to tell you that my conclusion was wrong, and that church corruption is to flourish." We can scarce give credit to this statement, so completely is it at variance with all that we have hitherto heard on the subject of the Government plan of Church Reform. Mr. PELHAM, who spoke out the other day at Lincoln (as if from authority), expressly stated that the projected Church Reform would not be a niggardly, make believe one, but really a downright, efficient Reform. Others also, , who from their situa tion should know something about the matter, have expressed themselves with equal openness and energy on the subject ; and, indeed, it was chiefly on the presumption that Ministers intended to set about the work of ecclesiastical reform in an efficient, un daunted spirit, that the country at the late elec tions, returned so many Whigs to Parliament. We feel convinced, therefore, looking to the ne cessity of the case, that Ministers will not act otherwise than conscientiously towards the people. We do not think they would trifle with them From a sense of duty, and we are pretty sure they will not from a sense of necessity. As for two Archbishops and eight Bishops for Ireland, the idea is absurd. One Archbishop and four Bishops, one for each province, are an abundant supply of diocesans, indeed more than enough to satisfy all the Protestant spiritual wants of Catholic Ireland. An express has been received from Paris bringing the papers of Thursday, and the Mes sager des Charnbres, dated yesterday. They contain very little news of interest, being filled with comments on the addresses of congratula tion to his MAJESTY from the corps diploma tique and the Chambers,on New Year's-day. The Ministerial Journals all agree that the address made by the Count D'APPONY,the Austrian Ambassa- dor, is a proof of the good feeling which now exists between France and the Northern Powers, and that the Government of Louts PHILIP has no reason to fear that a rupture will take place in consequence of the determination of the King of HOLLAND to persist in not acceding to the terms of the Treaty entered into between the British and French Cabinets. The KING held a Cabinet Council on Thurs day, at which all the Ministers were present. His MAJESTY, accompanied by the Duke of ORLEANS, was positively to leave Paris the next day, Friday, for the Northern Frontiers, to review the troops which are returning from Bel gium, and distribute the honours to them. It is expected that the whole of the army will have returned to France by the 10th ; they will take up the same position as they did previous to entering Belgium. The news from Spain mention that the Eng lish and French Ambassadors were urging the Spanish Ministry to recognise Donna MARIA as Queen of PORTUGAL. It was expected at Madrid, that M. ZEA BERMUDEZ, would suc ceed in having this accomplished. The QUEEN REGENT was fully aware of the infamous in trigues and plots forming against her by the Carlist and Apostolical party, and was encourag ing in every direction Liberal Institutions. FERDINAND continues in much about the same state. The following are extracts from Rio Janeiro Papers :- 1110 De JANciao, Nov. 3.—Two despatches, date?. the 16th and 18th August, from the camp at St. Joao, in the province of Rio Grand• do Norte, relate the defeat of a band of rebels; above 200 were killed on the spot, and the remainder pursued and killed. Nov. 6.—The Diario published the a dditional law passed by the L. gialative Assembly, relative to the orga nization of the National Guards in the whole empire.— Diario do Governe to the 7th November inclusive. Frankfort Papers, received this morning, con tain the following : UPPER HESSE, DEC. 23.—We learn that at the be ginning of the new year we may expect very considerable bodies of Prussian troops to march through our province. The Commissariat-office of the Circle at Giessen has already received notice, that it may have time to take the necessary measures for the quartering and subsistence of these troops, as stipulated by the convention, in their march along the military route through the province of Upper Hesse. But as the sum to be paid, according to the convention, by the Prussian Government, especially now that the price of provisions is rather high, will not be sufficient to indemnify those in whose houses the men are to be billetted, representations have been made by the Magistrates of the places on the road, with a view to ob tain a more adequate remuneration. —Nuremberg Corre spondent, Dec. 28. T H URINGEN, DEC. 22.—We learn from an authentic source that the negotiations at Berlin, relative to the tariff and commercial relations, are on the eve of being con. cluded. Weimar, and all the countries of Thuringen, un der the special designation of the " Thuringen Union," accede to the commercial conventio n of Prussia and Hesse. It is not, however, at all likely that this convention can be carried into effect before the Ist of July, 1 833 . VIENNA, DEC. 22.—The Observer contains a l ong account of the reception of his Majesty, the Emperor, at Presburg. Eye witnesses describe the joy and the et - . thusiasm of the Hungarian people and the deputies in the most Wowing colours. The opening speech was received w , th the loudest acclamations. BERLIN, Dec. 21.—The authorities have at length succeeded in discovering in the TrAxel Architect, at Co logne; the correspondent of the Messayer des Chambres to whom Prussia has to ascribe the malignant calumnies that have so long been published in the French U tra- Liberal Journals. The articles in his own hand-writing have been shown him, and he has confessed them to be his, and he was immediately put in prison and delivered up to the tribunals. The affairs of Poland excite less interest here at present, since the amnesty for the Grand Duchy of Posen is said to be already declared by the King. It includes above 600 persons. The few who are too deeply implicated to ex pect pardon, await the sentence. A pamphlet, by Capt. Dunkbahr, of the General Staff, printed at Konigsberg, has just been received here. It is on " the Retreat of the Polish Corps of Gielgud, Chlapowski, and Rybinski, into the Prussian territory, their stay there, and their removal f rom , it." It is completed with the assistance of official documents, and, by its dispassionate and clear statement of the facts, excites a new feeling of indignation at the ingratitude with which the Prussian authorities have been treated by those emigrants.—Frankfort Papers, Dec. 30. We have received an account of the presenta tion of the freedom of the city of Chichester to Earl GREY, while staying with the Duke of RICHMOND at Goodwood, together with his Lordship's reply ; which, however, together with the Corporation Address, are too long for insertion. They contain nothing of particular interest. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY.; FROM LLOYD'S.

PARKER'S ROYAL PATENT HYDRAULIC PEN.-Among the many improvements of the present day may be classed a patent hydraulic pen invented by Mr. PARKER, which has the very singular property of supplying itself with ink so as to last for a long pe riod. This invention is invalual.le to short-hand writers, clerks, travelling agents, and persons who have to transact business out of doors, as it obviates the necessity of carrying an inkstand, being complete in itself. It may be adapted to any pen—silver, steel, or quill—and is so simple that by a mere turn to the left or right it supplies the ink or absorbs it into the reservoir when required. Besides these desirable requisites the pen is so con structed, on the most approved mathematical princi ples, that the machinery cannot go out of order, ex cept by violence. By one dip or immersion into the ink, the pen absorbs a quantity sufficient to last a whole day. and by its own action keeps constantly cleansed. We can honestly recommend it to those who wish to save them selves time, trouble, and clean fingers. ANACHRONISM.—It will scarcely be cre dited that, in a work of such authority and celebrity as the Quarterly Review, Lord Granville, our ptesenr Am'.assador in France, should be confounded with Lord Grenville, the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs at the breaking nut of the first French revolution. That it is not a misprint is clear, from the error being repeated. MORTALITY OF THE METROPOLIS AS IN FLUENCED BY THE LATE PREVALENCE OF CHOLERA...... By a reference to the account of the mortality of the year jo..t ended, we find that the burials within the " Bills" exceeded those of the former year by 3,269, and that the deaths from cholera are stated to have been 3,200. It thus appears that the annual mortality has been increased altnost in the direct ratio of the ravages of that disease ; a fact which some have altogether denied. The total number of burials last year is reported to have been 28,606, being about 550 per week.—Aredical Gazette. Baptisms, Marriages, and Burials, at the parish church, at this place, from the Ist of January, 1832, to the Ist of January, 1833 : Baptisms . 3lB—increased 57 Marriages P.:l—increased 16 Burials It is a remarkable fact, notwithstanding the prevalence of the cholera in this town, that the increase in the number of deaths over the preceding year is only eleven.—.Don caster Gazette. Mr. O'CoNNELL, it appears, has changed his mind regarding the name of his new association, which is to be designated " The Volunteers of Ireland," instead of the " Repeal Association," as had been intended. We hear from the Freeman's Journal that the amount collected for Mr. O'CONNELL, for the last year, exceeds 12,0001. The Irish papers received yes terday abound with details of assassinations end outrages, with the record of scarcely a single instance of apptchi-n -sion of the perpetrators. On Christmas night Major ROSE, of the 92d Regiment, stationed in Ca,hel, had a very narrow escape from death ; he dined abroad that day, but a little before hie return home, a private of the name of MlNTostr, who had been for some time in confinement, possessed him-elf of a firelock, which he loaded, and then proceeded to the Major's room, the door of which he found open ; having entered it, he searched, happily in vain, for his officer.

John Cooper (the approver, who was examined for the Crown on the trial for murder yesterday) and So mud Fare (who was yesterd a y t r i e d for the murder and acquitted) were this morning arraigned upon the Co. rener's inquisition for being parties to the murder of Ben. jamin Couch Danby on the 19th of December. Mr. CLARKSON, for the prosecution, stated that, after the long and painful investigation in which the Court and Jury had been engaged yesterday, he had been instructed to offer no evidence upon the present charge. By the directions of the Conn, the Jury acquitted the prisoners. The prisoner Fare, alias Sleigh, was then arraigne,' upon an indictment for assaulting Benjamin Couch Denby on the King's highway, on the 19th of December. put ting him in bodily fear, and taking from his person 1 I s., a segar case, and a pipe bowl. Mi. CLARKSON, in stating the case to the Jury, re quested most earnestly that, in considering this case, they would dismiss from their minds any prejudice that the) might have naturally imbibed from the trial of yester day, when the present prisoner was acquitted. The Learned Counsel then detailed the circumstances of the l ease chiefly at they appeared on the trial yesterday. The witnesses were of course the same, Cooper being the principal one. It will be recollected that while lead ing the deceased along the road a scuffle ensued, in which the deceased, Johnson (who was convicted of the murder yesterday), and the prisoner fell down ; after which the prisoner ran away, and it was suspected the deceased wa robbed in that scuffle. When the prisoner was appre hended, a pipe bowl, sworn by Mr. Addington to have been lent by him to the deceased to charge his gun with, and some silver, were found on him—more silver than it was imagined the prisoner could have honestly possessed himself of, as he received relief from the parish. It was also proved that the prisoner, in allusion to the deceased's money, said be should like to have a touch at it ,n the dark, and if he could not get it he would cut hit, wizen. The prisoner put in a written defence, denying most solemnly having robbed the deceased. As to the pipe bowl, he had had it for a month before the murder, and he had witnesses in Court yesterday who could have proved that they bad seen him use it in charging his gun, but as there was no evidence affecting him, his Counsel did not think it necessary to call them. Believing them selves to be discharged from further attendance, those wit tresses were not in Court to-day. Mr. John Esdaile, a brewer, said he had known the pri soner for three years, and he gave him an excellent cha• ratter for honesty and humanity. He had been in wit ness's employ about two years. Three other persons spoke to the prisoner's previous good character. Mr. Justice J. PARKE in summing up said the only question for the Jury to consider was whether the prisoner took from the person of Benjamin Couch Danby the sum of I Is. by force, or whether he took the money at all ; if he took it by force it was a capital offence, but if he took it without force, it was an offence not capital, but tran sportable for such a period as the Court pleased. The Jury found the prisoner guilty of stealing from tLe person, unaccompanied with violence. NEW COURT. Charles Bowen, a surgeon, residing at -, was indicted for stealing household furniture, linen, plate, &c., of the value of 1001. and upwards, intrusted to his care by the prosecutrix, Hannah Fearn. It appeared in evi dence that the prosecutrix being in embarrassed circum stances, having given a eognovit for 191., and expecting every day an execution to be put into her house, was ad vised by the prisoner, who was a friend of hers, to remove her goods to his house, and to give him a receipt for the value of them, so that if the Sheriff should follow them, he might state that he had bought the goods, and to all appearance have a legal right to them. The prosecutrix not being able to write, put her mark to the receipt, upon which the prisoner detained the goods in his possession, alleging that the prosecutrix owed him a large bill f,r his professional attendance, and declaring that he would not give up the goods till he was paid. The prosecutrix de el fired, that she did not owe him a penny, and brought an action of trover for the recovery of the property, that action having failed, the prosecutor preferred a bill of indictment against the prisoner, charging him with feloniously steal ing the property. The Grand Jury found a true bill against the prisoner. Several witnesses were examined on the part of the prosecution, who completely failed in making out any case against the prisoner, not the slightest evidence being given to prove that be had attempted to convert any of the property in his possession to his own use. The Jury immediately acquitted the prisoner, who on leaving the bar, stated that the whole transaction w ,s a vile conspiracy against him. John Smith, a boy about 14 years of age, was indicted for stealing from the person of Mr. Thos. Fox Holmes, the son of the late Member for Queenborough, a pocket book, containing bank notes to the amount of 1401., a silver pencil-case, and several other articles ; and John Guest with receiving the same, knowing it to be stolen. The facts of the robbery have already been fully before the public. The robbery was committed in May-fair, on the sth of July, by Guest, Kennedy, and another person. Kennedy, who had been previously con victed, had turned King's evidence, and, in order to ren der him a competent witness, he had received a pardon under the Sign Manual. Mr. CLARKSON, who appeared for the prisoners, ob jected to the validity of Kennedy's testimony, and was addressing the Court when our Reporter left. THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. A mail has arrived from Rio Janeiro, which sailed on the Bth of November, about twelve days later than the last accounts. As yet we do not bear that it brings any news of importance. We have no arrivals of ship letters, and we are still without any information from Oporto. THE FUNDS. The general opinion is, that the King of Holland will not listen to the convention sent to him from France and England ; but in all probability it may draw from him some proposals on what terms be will settle the affairs of the Scheldt ; or he may lay down a certain basis on which he will open a negotiation with Leopold. Great anxiety is expressed for his answer. Consols, which left off yesterday at 87.11 for the Ac count, opened at the same price; since which they are 874 buyers for the Account, and have been done at 88 buyers. In the Foreign market nothing doing. HALF-PAST ONE. The Exchange from Rio Janeiro by the mail this morning came 36 ; Stocks 40 to 41. There is still a very great animation this morning in the Funds. Consols, which were in the early part of the day at 874, went up to 88i 4 for the Account ; at present they are Eu - Lal, which is a rise of 1 per Cent., and during the Account of 5i per Cent. The public continue pur chasing, which causes a great scarcity of Stock, and a further rise is expected next week, as about twelve millions of dividends will be paid to the public by the Bank, East India Company, and others. One defaulter has been already declared in the House, a Hebrew, but not to a great extent, and it is supposed that by the Ac count Day many more will be obliged to cat and run. In the Foreign Market most of the Securities have also improved. We are without any political news or arrivals from Oporto. Exchequer Bills have improved to 48 50. THREE O'CLOCK.

They were dyizg with girlish impatience to behold so great a prodigy, and declared they would be contented if he only stayed five minutes. he Signora was so beset with the importunities of the young ladies that she could not escape making the application.

He accepted the invitation with readiness, sent his violin, and passed the whole evening with them, conversing, pl ling, ad miring, and being admired.

EXETER CITY SES 4 i,.<-;;, 4 (.41- Thomas Granger, c l erk, vrik.timaicted for an assault ;''l •in William Granger, E.q., on the ifth Novemher last. The parties are of the highest respeCtabdity-at Exeter, the'' prosecutor being an Admiral in the Britiili navy, and the' defendant a Clergyman of the Church of En land. Mr. Caov,-nEa appeared for the prosecution. The Reverend defendant, who was undefended, on being •alledori to plead, said, " Sir, as I admit the charge, I ulead Guilty." Mr. CROWDER said that although the assault had been if the most outrageous nature, and as such was most dis reputable to, and must reflect disgrace on, a clergyman of the Church of England, yet hi. client, Admiral Granger, vas actuated by no vindictive feeling. On the contrary. he would be satisfied with that security from future insult which all men were entitled to demand. The RECORDER (addressing the Rev. defendant)—Of course, Mr. Granger, the Admiral is perfectly safe from the liability of any thing of this nature occurring again ? Defendant—The Admiral is perfectly safe. He will never le touched by my hands again—l would not defile them so. The RECORDER—The Court could be no respecter of persons —on the contrary, the higher the rank tsf those that transgressed, so much the more ex. , mplary ought to he the punishment. He had read the documents in this , ase, and sorry indeed was lie to say, that they disclosed facts anything but favourable to him. In the violence of pis conduct, as there depicted, he had forgotten all that was due to the sacred office ; he bad forgotten all that was due to so near a relative; nor on that day, in that place, at so great a distance of time, had he presented him self with those feelings and wishes for conciliation hat would have redeemed something of the great fault which he had committed, anti which his uncle. he Admiral, so laudably had done. The exprea -ion he made use of was anything but proper, and to hear t from the lips of a clergyman could not but give him (the Recorder) additional pain. To came him, there fore, to know, and, he hoped, to act, on better principles, se delivered the sentence of the Court, which was— " That he should be imprisoned in the common gaol of the city for one month, and find securities for his keeping the peace for the space of two years, himself in the sum of 2001. and two sureties in 1001., anl to be imprisoned ontd such sureties are found." The Reverend defendant was then removed in custody of the gaoler. NEUFCHATEL.—The little canton of Neuf chatel and Vallangin is the most ancient constitutional •ountry in Europe, for its oldest const,tutional fn' ms date rom the year 1113. At a later date too a special and exten live charter of liberties was granted to its inhabirants by thticir, and his nephew BERFOLE, joint !or& paramount of the territory. This, therefore, tikes precedence of our own Magna Charts by twelre months. The fact was ascertained a few yeers ago by the discovery of the origi. nal charter. Thee young Cantabs went one evening to a coffeehouse near St. dimes's, being recommended to it for the goodness of the wine, particularly old hock. One of them, who took upon himself to be the wit of the com• pany, ordered the waiter to bring a bottle of Mc, hwc, hoc. However, the waiter paid no attention to this command ; and, upon being called again, was - for a stupid ras cal, and asked the reason why he did not bring the hock. •' Really, gentlemen," said he, I thought you had de clined it." The Secretary for the Home Department is, we think, imperatively called upon to inquire into an - putation now publicly and openly made, that " certain of the Police Magistrates are the creatures of those by whom the Hells are maintained." SCHOOL LANDS IN OHIO.—The number of acres of land set apart for schools within Ohio, in cluding the salt reserves, which have been mostly sold, and the avails appropriated for common schools, is about 676,000—estimated value, 1,200,000 dollars. LONGEVITY OF THE (RATTLESNAKE.-- A correspondent of the Charleston Evening Post, men tions a rattlesnake that was found dead in the woods, near Georgetown, South Carolina, which was seven feet long, had 73 rattles, and teeth an inch and a half in length. The same writer quotes the following account from the Charleston Times of August 14, 1605 :—" A rattle . snake, upwards of six feet long, and having 12 rattles, was on Sunday last killed in a small garden ad joining the grave-yard of St. Philip's Church, by Mr. CARVER, furrier. The circumstance of so enor mous a reptile making its appearance in the very centre of so large a city as Charleston is rather singular and astonishing, but may be accounted for in this way : Snakes, generally, but rattle-snakes in particular, live in hollow logs ; and it is known most commonly in that season in which they are torpid they may be found in the same. In this situation the above snake may have been conveyed to the neighbourhood of the church, with a load of wood, probably last wirater, and emerged thence as soon as the weather restored him to himself." A political parson, residing not many miles from Bramcote, just previous to the election for the northern division of the county, fell in with a parishioner, who is a small fanner, and the following dialogue took place Well, JOHN," said the parson, " have you had the election people with you ?"—" Yes, Sir." " Indeed ! which of them ?"—" All of them, Sir." " And, of course, you promised Mr. HOULDSVVORTH No, Sir, I didn't." " Eh ! JuirN, how's that? I thought you were with us."—" Why, Sir, I promised Lord LUMLEY and Colonel GARDENER." "I am sorry for that, JOHN, very sorry; but you know you can vote which way you Thankee, Sir, I mean to stick to my principles, and vote as I have promised." " Very sorry, JOHN, very sorry," replied the divine, pulling out his book ; " Let me see, you are so much (naming the amount) in arrears for tithes, and I want my money, JOHN, so you must let me have it soon, or else I shall send a summons, Jorm ; I shall indeed." Need we offer any comment ?—Notting ham Mercury. LIABILITY OF QUAKERS TO SERVE AS JURORS IN CRIMINAL CASES.-At the London Sessions yesterday, a gentleman who was summoned on the Jury applied to the Court and claimed an exemption on the ground that he was a member of the Society of Friends, commonly called Quakers. The Recorder considered that the objection was a valid one, and the applicant was allowed to depart the Court. Upon this subject it ap pears that the Judges are at issue, for at the late Admi ralty Sessions a similar application was made, when Mr. Baron GURNEY ruled that by a late Act of Parliament Quakers were eligible, and a person of that sect was in consequence " affirmed," and sat as a juror in a cise of murder. It may be within the recollection of the public, that JOHN CHANNERS, convicted of murder, and ordered for execution, has been respited, in order that this point may be considered by the fifteen Judges, a legal objection having been taken on behalf of the prisoner. It appears to be the firm opinion of many gentlemen " learned in the law," that the conviction is bad. MURDER.—At seven o'clock on the morning of Saturday week, in a field near Keynsharn, was dis covered a woman. apparently about 60 years of age, lying upon the grass, and by ber side was a large bloody stone, and the earth bore evident marks of a struggle. She was removed to the poor-house, where she remained some hours, when the oversters put her into a donkey-cart, and about half-past six in the evening she was taken to the Bristol Infirmary. She was immediately attended to by Mr. RICHARD SMITH, the surgeon of the week, who found her forehead beaten in, and another very extensive fracture above the left ear. Although the poor woman was so dreadfully mangled she was not entirely deprived of her senses. She said that her name was NEct.a - POOLE, that she had been nine weeks in England, that her husband was in Ireland, and that she had been rubbed of three half-sovereigns and three shillings. Being asked who had robbed her ? she said " Jena Brooks," or some such name ; and, being questioned who he was, she answered " very bad always." She gave the bystanders to under stand, by signs, that her money was in a purse tied round her waist, and that it was torn away. She said that Mr. JONES, of Kilbrook, near Keynsham, had been very good to her, and that she worked for him. She repeated the substance of the above several times, and conversed also in Irish with a young woman who happened to be a patient. When some questions were put to her she seemed to be recollecting her self, and answered.. " when I can remember." Mr. SMITH apprised the Mayor of the circumstance, arid he very hu manely went to visit her, as also Alderman Faire, and GOLDNEY. Officers have been sent several times to put into her mouth. Keynsham, to collect information. There appears at pre sent every reason to believe that the t p h o a o t r w w . o s m s a a n id ha t s o b i e i e e n r, thus cruelly treated by some villain, and we have been thus minute in the hope that something may lead to a made an in t h Al n ifr sh-street and at oiler clue by which justice may overtake him. She was lying all Thursday and Friday in a state of stupor, and quite in. alcapablelntihuoiur although "s of shh u aev n e d s e w r: ea t el a ln. n or di e n zi g anything resorts of the Irish, but nothing of any itnpertance has been elicited. The poor woman died on Friday at twelve o'clock.—Bath Cbronick.
