SAMUEL HALL requests the favour of the inspection by Engineers and others .of his Patent Steam Engines, aboard the Hercules steam-vessel of 180-horse power, possessing the following advantages :-Ist, The supply of pure instead of salt or dirty water for the boilers. 2nd, The in creased durability of the boilers, which last a much greater number of years, owing to their not being subjected to the corrosive action of hot salt water, nor to the injurious incrustations occasioned. thereby. 3rd, A very great saving of fuel. 4th, A very impor tant increase of power, particularly in stormy weather, when it is most required. sth, Much greater safety, owing to the circum stance that the regular and accurate supply of water to the boilers, and of the injection water, (which is done away with,) are no longer dependent upon the carefulness of the engineer. Besides the above advantages, many collateral and important ones are obtained, which require too long an explanation to be given here, but•sketches of the Engines, with further ample informa tion and testimonials, may be had on application to the Patentee, No. 147, Strand, London, or Basford, near Nottingham. The Hercules, which belongs to the St. George Steam Packet Company, is put on the station from 'London to C ork, touching at Plymouth. N. B. The improvements are equally applicable to land en gines as to engines for, marine purposes, and to old engines as well as to new ones. 30, STRAND. PARODY on the " BARCAROLLE " in Masaniello. Oh !

I regret that 1 have not earlier acknowledged to you the great benefit which I have derived from the use of your Balm of Columbia which, in my own case, I have happily found to possess all the virtues you ascribe to it; I at first, and by mere accident, purchased a Bottle from one of your Agents merely as a tile, and until lately, was unaware of its justly famed and great celebrity, or of your being resident, and having a prin cipal establishment in England, otherwise I should have felt pleasure, and a sense of duty to you and the public in making this acknowledgment before. About four years ago I found my Hair rapidly falling off, not occasioned by any bodily illness, and to such an extent was my head really bald that I was compelled to wear a wig; about three months afterwards I began to use your Balm, and after the lapse of nine months, and the application of only three 3s. 6d. bottles, 1 was enabled to leave off the wig, finding my Hair quite restored to its pristine strength, which it has retained ever since. I am, Gentlemen, yours very obliged, To Messrs. C. & A. Oldridge, BENJAMIN BRIDGER, Balm of Columbia Establishment, 31, Little Newport-street, No. I, Wellington-street, Strand. Leicester-square. Oldridge's Balm causes Whiskers and Eyebrows to grow, prevents the Hair from turning gray, and on the first application produces a beautiful curl, frees the Hair from scurf, and stops it from falling off. Abundance of Certificates from gentlemen of the first respectability are shown by the Proprietors, C. and A.

Pinto and Co., 36, Crotched-friars. It has proved such an unfailing and certain remedy, that it has given universal satisfaction; and the demand I have for it, with its undoubted efficacy, has called my attention to its practical efibct. Ido consider it to the interest of my house to solicit the sole agency for the Isle of Cuba; not doubting your ac ceptance of my terms, as I shall always send the cash with my orders, as in this case. I have enclosed you a bill five days' sight, on Charles Buttar, Esq, 15, Angel-court, Throgmorton street, London, for which you will please to send 500 cases of your celebrated Eve Snuff.

She was painted with a yellow streak, and half ports ; part of the main rigging and two leading blocks, apparently new, have been landed h ere . MARGATE, M ARCH 22.—Between 200 and 300 pieces of lead have been landed here to-day from the Jeune Augusto, lost on the Kentish Knock. GLOUCESTER, MARCH 23.—The Adel, Hepburn, which put back last month is expected to proceed for Oporto in a few days. M. Mayerhoper, a manufacturer of pianofortes in Utrecht, has invented an ingenious music stand, a slight pres sure with the foot on a petrel attached to which enables the player to turn over the leaves of the book without taking the hands off the instrument.--Dutch Paper. tioners were or were not correct. Petitions of a dif- ferent complexion were afterwards presented by the same Hon. Gentleman, who will bring forward his motion on the transactions in Carlow on the day fixed. Mr. O'Connell reproached Colonel Bruen with being a bad landlord, and intimated • that the Gallant Colonel had let his lands at war rents, and gave his tenants no receipts ; so that when any of his tenants voted against him, he called on them for arrears of rent. How far this statement is consistent with fact, remains to be seen. But what ever may be the case with Colonel Bruen, we fear that there are few Irish landlords to whom the charge of keeping hanging over the heads of their tenants what by no possibility they can ever pay, is not applicable. The necessities of the peasantry place them altoge ther in the hands of the landlords, who charge them wi rents which never can be paid, in order to have ; _Orapletely under_ their power: The.abuse, we regret to say, prevails to some extent in England, as well as in Ireland. Every now and then we hear it stated in the papers that Lord this, or Lady that, at their audit, allowed to their tenants, a deduction of fifteen or twenty per cent. The meaning of this is merely that the land is over-rented, but that the owner takes what be can get from his tenants, who, if the deduction were not regularly offered, would insist on the abatement. The apparent liberality deceives neither the parties nor any one else. But in Ireland, the absence of all protection, except that of prmdial confederations, allows the landlord to set all decency at defiance. It is time that the hapleSs con dition of the Irish peasantry were inquired into, and we rejoice exceedingly that the Hon. IVlember for Greenock is about to pursue a course which must let in some light on the subject. It will be found, we suspect, that the Irish peasantry are far more sinned against than sinners. Outrages they certinly commit ; but are we to wonder that the poor wretch who has no other means of subsistence than the patch of ground he occupies, should wreak his vengeance on the person who takes it over his head, and that he should associate with others similarly circumstanced, to enforce* prdial laws, dictated by hard necessity ? Something must at length be done for the wretched Peasantry of the sister island.-31orning Chronicle. We are not very much in the habit of supporting propositions brought before Parliament by Mr. Joseph Hume ; but, " to give the - his due," he got his claws upon a petition last Tuesday evening, the aver ments of which, if established, will reflect no less dis- grace upon the Colonial Department that if Lord Gle nelg and his factotum, Sir George Grey, had been convicted of the crime of shoplifting, as indeed any attempt by the House of Commons to fling aside the document, or to evade the discussion of it, will involve that assembly in equal discredit with the nation. The matter is this—M. Hitie and another gentleman, de puted in the course of last year by the oppressed and ill-treated people of the Mauritius to lay a statement of their grievances before the British Government, found it necessary, for the interests of the case, to have the support of Mr. Jeremie, an eye-witness of many of the series of acts which they complained of. It may not be altogether beside the question to remark that the two Gentlemen, Messrs. Jeremie and Reddie, of whom mention has often been made in this Jour nal, were dismissed from their respective offices —wrongfully and -shamefully dismissed—for having, each in his Peculiar sphere, endeavoured, through muc local embarrassment and difficulty, to impede the pro. gress of oppression, corruption, fraud, and disaffection The wrong has since been fully recognised on the par of the very Government by which it was inflicted, and' Mr. Jeremie has been , nominated to a seat on the Cey lon bench, although we have not heard that any ade quate redress for the injustice done him has yet been a warded to Mr. Reddie. However, Mr. Jeremie's ap pointment came unseasonably for the hopes of the Mauritian Deputies, who would, by his departure, have been deprived of the advantage of his testimony. They applied, therefore, to the Colonial Office, to de tain the -Learned Gentleman in this country, that he might be made available at the public in quiry which they sought. The Colonial Minister refused, but on the condition that the Deputies should deposit 1,0001. t o defray the charge of Mr. Jeremie's detention. They - did so. The money was paid in to the Colo nial Office, in consideration—first, that Mr. Jeremie's evidence should be forthcoming for the benefit of the Mauritius ; 2d, and a fortiori, that the investigation should take place, in the course of which that evidence was to be appealed to. The charge against Ministers made by Mr. Hume is, that the investigation was baffled by the manoeuvres of Ministers ; that Mr. Jeremie was sent out of the country by them, and that having lost Mr. Jeremie, for whose presence they had paid their 1,0001., the Deputies have applied in vain for the money—bothara gone ! Our only hope must be that the features of this case may have been exaggerated, for its present aspect is odious and re volting in the extreme. We have, nevertheless, reason to fear that the leading facts cannot with truth be got rid of ; and assuredly the lame and shuffling apology of Sir G. Grey is not calculated to wipe away any sinister suspicions. A series of transactions more nearly akin to swindling it would not be easy to imagine.—Times. We cannot but regard the veto interposed by the Proctors upon the proceedings of the Convocation at Oxford as most injudicious and most unfortunate. It is not by crushing discussion that dissension can be avoided ; it is not by resisting inquiry that distrust can be removed. Doctor Hampden is appointed to an office, than which a more important one cannot be found within the whole range of man's ambition. He is the authorised teacher of spiritual morality, the authorised expounder of religious truth, to the youth of an English University. It is questioned whether his - . published opinions are of such a nature as to constitute him a fit instructor of spiritual morality, or a safe guide to religious truth. The University wh o is required to confide her alumni to his wis dom and - judgment, is called upon to pronounce her acceptance or rejection of the authority be as serts. Her solemn condemnation of Dr. Hampden's recorded tenets is notoriously only averted by the interference of two friendly individuals, to whom accident has given an opportunity to silence the suffrage of hundreds. Dr. Hampden may be a learned man, a moral man, a pious man. We make our ques tion more complicated than it need be, when we rest any part of our argnment upon an alleged intellectual or moral unfitness in Dr. Hampden for the professor ship he holds. O ur course i s clearest when we ad mit his scholarship and his virtue in the fullest man ner. The Regius Professor ought to be not only a just man, not only an able man, but also a sound theo logian, according to the theology of the Church of England. If Dr. Hampden, with much profound erudition, with much moral integrity, combines much doctrinal error, his appointment becomes the more dangerous from the very erudition which gives w ei g ht to his opi n i on , an d t h e integrity which affixes influence to his character. Our regret for the appointment, and our dislike of the means used to prevent the expression of the opinion of the University upon it, do not depend wholly upon our assurance of the erroneousness of Dr. Hampden's tenets. We do indeed hold them erroneous —dangerously erroneous. Yet, if we could believe them reconcileable in every particular with the written word of God, we should still blame and lament the selection of one to expound the Scripture on whose exposition it will be impossible for the hearers to rely. When medicine is to be applied to the body, the quick est perception, the longest experience, the subtlest shill profit the physician little, if the patient has been ac customed to regard his efforts as those o f an empiri c and impostor. When education is to be administered to the mind, far more fatal is the mistake which entrusts its administration to the care of one whose doctrines are more likely to be scrutinized and criticized, than to be received and followed. It is the first qualification of a theological lecturer, that his system should be true. It is at least the second, that it should be thought so.—Morning Post. The Irish Tithe Reform Bill is expected to be brought into the House of Commons by Lord Mor peth ou Friday. From this our readers will infer that that the warfare of Parliamentary parties, which has been hitherto a mere series of skirmishes, is on the point of becOming serious—that the real crisis is nearly at hand—and that Whigs and Conservatives are now on the eve of joining in general battle. It is high time that the important question involved in this measure should be brought to a termination. As long as it is unsettled the elements of agitation must con tinue to exist in Ireland. If they are for the present in a quiescent state, it can only be considered as a state of suspended animation. . While the mode of collect ing tithes-in Ireland remains on if pi'esent footing, the most trivial accident, at any given hour or mo ment, would be sufficient to kindle the slumbering strife into vital action, and blow the spark of discord into a flame. It has been suggested by the Conserva tives that the appropriation clause connected with this measure will be either greatly mitigated or thrown over board by the Ministry. We do not believe a syllable of the calumnious imputation. Both interest and duty on the part of the Ministry make such a dereliction impossible. The existence of the Ministry would be endangered by it, and not worth an hour's purchase. It is the principle on which Lord Melbourne's Admi- nistration may be said to have come into power—a principle to which they are sacredly pledged, and interest and duty both combine in enforcing upon them the necessity of fully redeeming that pledge. No objection has been made by any reasonable man of the liberal interest, whether in Ireland or in England, to such an interior reform of the economy of the Church of England as may tend to a more equitable distribution of the Church's enormous income among the various orders of clergy which belong to it. The principle of an equitable reduction of the enormous episcopal revenues,—of an equitable augmentation of the revenues of the working clergy—and of the withdrawal of salaried sinecures from the Establishment, has been fully ad mitted by the Report of the Ecclesiastical Commission, on which the Ministers in both Houses have founded the measures of Church Reform of which they have given notice. This concession of a great principle by the Commissioners, as far as England is concerned — considering that the Commissioners were principally members of the English hierarchy—not only supplies a fortunate augury for the settlement of the Irish Tithe Reform question, but to our view practically facilitates it, and removes impediments out of its path. What greater reason can exist in Ireland that ecclesiastical sinecures shall be held than in England ? Why should large incomes be devoted to Protestant clergymen who have no flocks—who are living by a hateful compulsory process upon the members of a faith opposed to their tenets, and who already pay their own priesthood the due and adequate remuneration for their religious service ? After a similar fair adjustment of the in comes of the Protestant clergy has been made in Ireland as in England, the surplus clearly, by every law divine and human, belongs to the nation. The nation in Ire land is seven parts Catholic to one part Protestant. Are the seven parts to be cut off from the advantages of that education to which as much as to the admini stration of religious service and comfort all Church funds were, beyond a doubt, originally devoted ? In that query lies the nutshell of the argument. By dif fusing education the cause of universal religion is promoted. Is it for the Protestant Clergy, therefore, to throw impediments in the way of that beneficial co-operation ? The way effectually to counteract the ignorant fanaticism or despotic tenets which they are so apt to impute to Catholicism, is to diffuse the light of education. If they are pettedly sincere in their belief of the truth of their own tenets, then let them say with us, truth is great and must prevail, and let them diffuse that education, which is the source of truth. The Conservatives may be perfectly satisfied that the Ministers will neither mitigate nor re linquish the principle of the appropriation clause. It is in vain for them to lay the flattering unction to their souls, that there is a re-action in the Melbourne Ca binet—after having been beaten both by evidence and fact out of the position with which they commenced their Parliamentary campaign, that there was a re-ac tiom among the people, there will be no mitigation nor compromise of the appropriation clause ; but we trust that the Lords will re-consider the ill conse quences of their resistance to the measure last year; we trust that they will mitigate their fatal hostility to a measure of policy, humanity, and justice demanded by public opinion ; and make a timely compromise with the all-powerful spirit of the age—so as to avoid pro voking such a collision with it as may result in their own humiliation or subversion.—Since writing the above we have learned that the Bill has been post poned until after the Easter recess.—Morn. Advertiser. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. MIDLAND CIRCUIT.—LErcesrEzz, MAncur 22. Thomas Manning, aged 27 years, was charged with the wilful murder of Ann Harrap. Joseph Harrap keeps a public-house at Frowlesworth, in this county. Was acquainted with Manning, who occa sionally used his house. Was there on the 16th of No vember last, about half past seven in the evening. He called for half a pint of ale, and the deceased (prosecutor's wife) drew it. Prisoner had a gun in his hand. He was in liquor, but not drunk, or near it. Did not observe his being in liquor before the ale was drawn. He came in very mild, and said, " Missis, can I have half a pint of ala And she said, " Yes, surely; Tom." He had a second half pint, when he became unruly. Witness and his wife remonstrated with him on his conduct, and refused to let him have any more ale. He swore lie would have what ale he pleased. Deceased quitted the house to go to a neighbour's leaving witness and prisoner alone. During her absence prisoner was pretending to charge his gun, but did not see him put any thing into it. He was pretending to put shot down, but witness can swear he did not put any shot down, or he would have heard it rattle in going down the barrel. He then put down the ramrod, and witness perceived it was four inches high out of the barrel. Believes it was loaded before. He then re turned the ramrod into its place. The door was open. Prisoner could see any body coming in. Witness heard a voice outside calling Manning to come home, when prisoner said he would shoot the devil, or the first person who should come in. Deceased then came in at the doorway, when prisoner elevated his gun. and shot the deceased. Believes it was done deliberately. Can say that it was. As- soon as the gun went off, deceased receded, and witness. collared. th e prisoner, and took the gun away. Deceased. was in her 60th year. Cross-examined--Deceased had a goad deal' of influent...le ove r prisoner, who has had many serious accidents which had affected his health. There was never any animosity between them. The prisoner declined saying any thing, when The Learned JUDGE summed up, telling the jury test before they could convict for murder they must be safAied he was actuated by malice ; if not, they woul-.1 do well to return a verdict of manslaughter. The Jury found him guilty of manslaurjbter.. and tbe ' Learned Judge sentenced him to transNtiation for hft!. w _ George T urner was then placed at foe bar, charbea the wilful murder of Henry Wells.. Sarah Charles—ls the wife ol Samuel Charles, whO Edward Marriott deposed to his meeting Wells's team, he not being with them. He went to look for him, and met Turner coming straight from the place where the team stood, and Turner's father was coming from the town towards the barn-close. Witness went and put some cows into a close, and afterwards proceeded thirty or forty yards farther up the lane, when he found the body of Henry Wells. He was dead. The hat was lying near his head, covered outside with blood. His necit-handkerchief was torn from his neck, and lay, in four or five pieces, from the body, blood being upon it, and also on the deceased's pocket handkerchief. Mr. Sergeant GOULBURN called Thomas Macaulev, a surgeon, who gave it as his opinion that the injuries spoken of were occasioned by a cart-wheel having passed over the body. Several witnesses were called to speak to the prisoner's character; and The Jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty of the murder, but Guilty of manslaughter ; and seniAce of transportation for life was immediately passed upon him. HOME' CIRCUIT.—LEWES, MARCH 23. The business of the Assizes for the county of Sussex com menced here this morning. Sir N. C. Tindal delivered the charge to the Grand Jury, and Mr. Justice Vaughan pre sided in the Civil Court. The names of 48 prisoners ap peared in the calendar ; the offences with which they are charged consist of arson, cutting and maiming, burglary, highway robbery, &c. On the law side 13 causes are en tered, two of which arc special juries. CASSALL V. SHILLIBEER. This action was brought by the plaintiff to recover from - the defendant, the omnibus proprietor, 101., the value of a horse alleged to have been sold him. The defendant denied that he had purchased the horse. The Jury found for the plaintiff—Damages 10/. Thomas Sales, aged 23, removed by habeas corpus on the 20th of February, 1836, from his Majesty's gaol of Middle sex, was charged with stealing in the dwelling house of John Rugman, the elder, in this county, 91., the property of John Rugman, the younger, and 201. the property of William Rugman, brother of the latter. The Jury returned a ver dict of Guilty of stealing, but not in a dwelling-house, and his Lordship sentenced the prisoner to two years' imprison ment and hard labour. The prisoner had driven a cab in London. SURREY SESSIONS.-WEDNESDAY. Margaret Charlotte•Hig,gs, a female of rather prepos sessing appearance, was indicted' for stealing two sovereigns and some silver, from John Colelough, an attorney, residing iu Sutton•ground Westminster. The case excited a great deal of interest, owing to the nature of the circumstances which came out in the course of the evidence, the prisoner being a married woman, lately returned from India, and her having had an intrigue with the prosecutor occasioned the institution of the present proceedings against her. The offence was brought home to the prisoner. The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty, and the prisoner was sentenced to twenty-one days' imprisonment at Brix ton Gaol, and to be kept in egitary confinement during the time. There are two prisoners confined in Horsemonger-lane Gaol, one for stealing and the other for receiving property. The stealing being beyond the jurisdiction of the Central Criminal Court cannot be tried there. The receiving being within the jurisdiction of the Central Criminal Court can not be tried at these sessions. The consequence is, the prisoners remain for months in gaol to be tried at the assizes. Five men were convicted of uttering counterfeit coin, and having a quantity also in their possession. They were sen tenced to be imprisoned for two years. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. G UILDHALL. William Sanderson, who has been in custody since Sa turday, charged with stealing a handsome carriage gelding, was yesterday brought up for re-examination, and was fully committed. MARLBORO UGH-STREET. Yesterday an aged person, of respectable appearance, named Douglas, made the following complaint to Mr. DYER : On Monday last, be had made a call on a military offi cer of high rank, and as he was rather fatigued, owing to the walk and his age, which was upwards of 86, he sat him self down on the step of a door near Regent-street, with the intention of resting himself for a few minutes. A po liceman came up, ordered him in a rough manner to rise and move on, and then gave him a push, which knocked off his hat. He attempted to remonstrate, upon which the policeman, as he said, actually took possession of his hat, and carried it away with him to the station house. The hat was of no great value, but as it contained papers and other things of some con sequence to him, he resolved to make an effort to regain possession of it, and accordingly he proceeded to the Vine•street station-house and 6 dernanded its restora tion. His application was unsuccessful, and he went to Bow-street to ask advice ; but as the transaction oc curred within the jurisdiction of this office he was referred here accordingly. The old gentleman added that the po liceman no doubt thought he was some poor person, whose circumstances would prevent him from going to any ex pense to seek redress ; but though his dress might not be of the most stylish description be was quite able to give his attorney 1001. or 5001., in order to obtain repa ration for the unjustifiable treatment he had met with. Mr. DYER would recommend the complainant not to enter into litigation precipitately. His advice was that he should accompany a policeman then in the office to the sta tion-bouse, and again ask for the restoration of his hat. The applicant said he would be guided by the recom mendation of the Bench, and then retired. MARYLEBONE. At the evening sitting on Tuesday, William Montague, Thomas Newman, William Batty, George Croft, and George Dent, postboys in the employ of Mr. Newman, Regent-street, Mr. Yeomens, Wilmot-street, Brunswick square, and others, were brought up in custody and placed at the bar before Mr. SHUTT, charged with having by furious driving injured in a dreadful manner an old man (name at present unknown), who is now in the hospital, with but little chance of recovery. From the evidence gone into it appeared that a number of youths left Harrow in six postchaises for town in order to spend the Easter holidays with their relations, and that the prisoners being desired by the said youths to go on at a spanking rate whipped accord ingly their horses, which proceeded along the road at. an 'alarming speed. On arriving near the Red Lion, Pailding ton, the off hind wheel of the foremost vehicle came in vio lent collision with a cart, which was upset, and the driver, a man about sixty years of age, precipitated from his scat to the ground with great force ; the post-boy, whose chaise was also upset, had his left leg also dreadfully fractured ; and one of the horses (both of which fell) sustained consi derable injury.
