Sir ANDREW AGNEW'S Bill for the better enforce ment of Sunday starvation and fanaticism, has at length made its appearance—and a precious Bill it is ! Even Praise-God-Barebones himself would be ashamed to acknowledge the paternity of such a bantling. It is impossible it can pass, for it is of the most whole sale, inquisitorial character, and at direct variance with every dictate of religion, and every principle of common' sense and common feeling. In the first place, it pro hibits all travelling by land or water ; secondly, it shuts up all club-rooms, hotels, taverns, coffee-houses, and cook-shops ; thirdly, it prevents all vessels from leaving port ; and fourthly, it entails heavy penalties on " every person who shall hire, or let out to hire, any horse, or carriage." Mark the bare-faced par tiality of this last clause ! It does not affect the rich man. He may drive or ride about on his horse or car riage, just as he pleases ; but the poor man who has no such luxuries at command, and would fain hire them for a day's, or an hour's healthful recreation—he, forsooth, must be punished for such presumption ; be cause that which is a harmless amusement when the rich indulge in it, becomes downright sacrilege when the poor attempt to enjoy it ! Then again, mark the tyrannical, lunatic character of the clause, which proposes to shut up all places of public entertainment. Why, it is tantamount to the enforcement of general starvation ! The stranger who, visiting London on pleasure or business, and being ill-provided at his own lodgings—a case of every day occurrence—should pro pose to_ dine at an hotel or tavern, would actually be compelled to adjourn his dinner till Monday. In vain would he apply for relief to the confectioner, or even the baker ; both shops are shut up ; and he would have nothing left for it, but to return home, and console himself for the gnawings of the gastric juice —that most emphatic of special pleaders—by the reflection that Sunday starvation is acceptable in the eyes of the Lord. But even this, preposterous as it is, is not the worst clause in the Bill. No vessel must pre sume to set sail on the Sabbath, though it may have been wind-bound for days, and a favouring breeze may just happen to spring up on the Lord's Day. To be sure, in this, as in the other cases •of grievance, the Bill exempts works of " necessity" front the operation of its stringent clauses ; but who is to say what is, or what is not, " necessity ?" That which may appear a matter of necessity to one man, may appear far other wise to another. Offenders and magistrates are apt to r vitjgly eal this score. It may seem necessary to 4 - 671frader- ta:ftke advantage of a favourable change Is; ... fl the wind, and set sail on S un d ay ; but a rigid magis- ' f it, ~v ._ tralv may convict, on the plea, that there was no neces- ! , -.1,Fi% . • 2,.2-,:.:.L.1..1.----- luaaa.),l l o; - , THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY, MAY 3, 1836.

Fiffirigham Wilson, Junior, 16, King William-street, London sity for such an infraction of the Sabbath, because the wind would most probably continue fair till Monday. In short, this saving word " necessity" has no earthly meaning, and though it may be comprehensive and charitable enough in appearance, in reality it leaves the Bill just as starch and despotic as ever. Again therefore, we say, such a measure cannot—must not pass. It is a rank libel on religion —a deliberate affront to society, fit only to be torn to atoms, and flung in the face of the dull, sour-faced, paradoxical Merry-Andrew who has brought it for ward. In God's name, leave the observance of the Sabbath to the good taste of the community. It cannot be left in better hands. Men are not to be dragooned into devotion. You may make them hypocrites, but you cannot make them religious, even though you keep them under lock and key in their own houses, and forbid them a crust of bread, from twelve o'clock on Saturday night, till the same hour on Monday night. We are no advocates for the " flogging system," but we cannot help thinking that a round dozen or two at the halberts, laid on by a strapping drummer, would have a most beneficial effect on Sir ANDREW AGNEW, by cooling that fanatical fever under which he now so distressingly labors. We flog soldiers into morality— why then should we not flog Saints into common-sense ? Our readers will be gratified to learn, from our Par liamentary report, that Ministers have not been inat tentive to the claims of the Dissenters to relief from that most obnoxious and galling of all imposts, the Church. rate. Lord:JoHN RUSSELL stated, in reply to a question put to him by Lord STANLEY, that it is the intention of Government to introduce a measure on the subject, as soon as the Report of the Ecclesiastical Commissioners shall have been submitted to the House. Tha Dissenters will, we are sure, know how to appreciate the manly declaration of the Noble Lord, that " he had already introduced two measures for the relief of Dissenters, with regard to Registration and Marriage, hut he should consider them very inef ficient unless the House was prepared to settle the question of Church-rates also." We have advices from Greece of the 7th of April. The Government has succeeded i❑ putting down the rebellion in western Roumelia, and in driving the Klephtis hands across the eastern frontier. These marauders had congregated in such numbers as to lay siege to Missolonghi, and but for the intrepid bravery of Colonel ALMEYDA, who compelled every inhabi tant capable of bearing arms to defend the town till the garrison received reinforcements, they would have made themselves masters of it without difficulty. At the same time regular bands attacked Lepanto, Vrachori, and Vonitza ; and at Echinos, where they were at tacked by M. ZEITUNI, a Bavarian officer, the Go vernment troops were defeated with considerable loss. The Government at last was forced to bestir itself. On 28th of February King Oruro published a Royal De cree for increasing the, number of the militia encamped on the frontier by a levy of two thousand soldiers— in which all were admissible who had fought for the independwee of Greece. These troops were to receive a great increase of pay, with rations of flour daily, to be provided by the Government. Nothing more than the publication of this decree was neces sary to pacify the interior of Greece. It was tanta mount to a general amnesty, for the insurgents had all fought for the independence ; and as they had taken up arms as rebels, in consequence of their destitute condition—which they wholly attributed to Bavarian influence—they thus obtained indirectly the redress of their worst grievances. General CHußcir has been appointed Commander-in-Chief of Rou melia, without being subject to the authority of the Minister of War. Greece never will, and never ought to be content, while the country is swarmed with such hives of Ba varian adventurers as now infest it. After enduring the protracted horrors of a war of independence, it is not unreasonable that they should insist upon a Constitu tion, and the right of enjoying those honours and dig nities in the State for which they sacrificed their pos sessions, and shed their blood. The Greeks did not throw off the yoke of the Ottoman empire to become the humble tributaries of such a Power as Bavaria ; and when we see them in arms against the Government with a view to wring from it a charter, and the riddance of their country from a horde of hungry place-hunting foreigners, too lazy or too proud to work for their sup port, we almost hesitate to denominate them rebels. King OTIIO was about to proceed to Germany on a matrimonial errand. It was rumoured that he was to have his choice of two daughters of the King of WIRTEMBERG, by a former marriage. The state of Greece, though now tranquil, would not, it was sup posed, allow him to remain long absent from his do minions. We have Hamburgh Papers of the 28th ult. On Thursday last the most respectable citizens of Ham burgh gave a public dinner to Dr. GA BRI EL RIESSER, a learned Jew, previous to his leaving the city, in consequence of the late barbarous attack made upon the members of the Hebrew community. Many other wealthy Jewish families have also left the Hanseatic territory on the same account. Dr. HAHN, in the name of his brethren and the liberal citizens of Hamburgh, presented Dr. RIESSER with a medal, of the value of one hundred and fifty guineas. In the course of the evening several of the speakers expressed themselves grateful to Lord JOHN RUSSELL, Lord GLENELG, Mr. HUME, and Mr. O'CONNELL, for their great services in favour of Jewish emancipation. The following are extracts from the papers : STOCKHOLM, APRIL, 22.—. The Dayligt Alkhanda of to-day has the following article " We hear that orders have been sent by a courier to Carlscrona to equip a squadron of six ships to go to sea with out delay, and likewise to arm several others." We do not know whether this intelligence is as premature as the following, which the same paper adds : In connexion with the above, it is said that 15 English ships have been seen in the Cattegat, and that an equal num ber of Russian ships have sailed from Cronstadt, the imme diate destination of which is to cruise on the coast of Livonia and Esthonia. It is added that eight English transports are in the road of Copenhagen to take up provisions.' FRANKFORT, APRIL 22.-0 ne of our journals, called the Conversations Blatt, contains the following letter from M. Leopold Scheffer, of Muskau, dated the 18th ult. Prince Puckler Muskau, in Arcadia, writes to me from Patras, the 15th of January this year— ' Greece is in the most deplorable condition, much lower in every respect in civilization than Barbary, and is, I hear, quite laid waste. You have seen the beautiful plain of Patras, now a desert, overgrown with weeds and rushes, without a single tree where formerly 100,000 grew. Robbers made the whole country extremely unsafe, and yesterday I came to a mill in the mountains, the owner of which, after being robbed, had his nose and ears cut off, and, if I read aright, his mouth also, as a remedy against freedom of speech. But for tho English Consul, I should be almost starved here ; and yet everybody tells me that Patras is the principal town in New Greece, not excepting even Athens 1' The Prince is now at Constantinople. CRACOW, APRIL 20.__The• birth-day of his Majesty the Emperor of Austria was kept here yesterday with great so lemnity. Crowds of citizens crowded to the plain of Blonie, where the allied troops were to assemble for divine service, and afterwards to perform some evolutions. About ten in the morning Major-General Kaufna ann received the compliments of the residents of the three protecting Powers, and of our civil and military authorities. To an A ldress of Senator Kielczewski the General replied, that he would not fail to communicate to his Majesty, the sentiments expressed on the part of the Government of Cracow ; at the same time lie returned thanks for the hospitable reception which the troops of the three Allied Powers had met with in Cracow, and expressed a hope that the august Protectors would duly appreciate the good sentiments of the inhabitants of Cracow, and be pleased to establish on more solid foundations the liberty and prosperity of this republic. At eleven o'cloci: the General arrived on the field, and after the review gave a magnificent entertainment in honour of his Sovereign's birth-day, to which the President of the Senate, the residents, the officers, and many other per sons, were invited. The officers anti privates had also a hand some dinner. The Russian troops which occupied the territory of the republic, and came to the city yesterday to take part in the festivities, left us to-day to return to the kingdom of Poland ; the Prussian troops have likewise left the territory of Cracow ; and the Austrian battalion of infantry and three squadrons of cavalry are gone to Podgorze.' WILL OF JAMES WOOD, ESQ., OF GLOUCESTER. Mr. Wood's will is thus expressed :—" Instructions for the will of me, James Wood. I request my friends, Alderman Wood, M.P., of London ; John Chadborn, of Gloucester (his attorney) ; Jacob Osborne, of Gloucester, and John Surman, of Gloucester (his two clerks), to be my executors, and I appoint them executors accordingly. And I desire that they will take possession of, and retain to themselves, all my ready moneys, securities, and personal estate, subject to the pay ment of my just debts and such legacies as I may hereafter direct. And with respect to my real estate I shall dispose of the same to such persons, and in such parts, as I shall, by any writing indorsed herein, direct. " Witness my hand, 2d Dec., 1834. " JAMES WOOD." " I, James Wood, Esq., do declare that to be my will for disposing my essate as directed by my instructions. " I declare my wish that my executors shall have all my estates, real and personal property, which I may not dispose of; and that all my estate, real and personal, shall go amongst them and their heirs in equal proportions, subject to my debts and to my legacies or bequests, of any part thereof, i" any which I may hereafter make. " In witness whereof I have to this my last will and testa nient set my hand this " 3d Dec., 1834. "'JAMES WOOD. " Signed and published by the said testator in and for his last will and testament in our presence. " Ann Lewis. Edward Swann. Wm. Veaile." [The words marked in italics are scored through in the will.] Mr. Gale, of Broadway, Westminster, has favoured us with the above copy of Mr. Wood's will. Mr. Gale himself is a relation of Mr. Wood, and informs us that Mr. Wood has left nine second and third cousins, and that Messrs. Jennings and Son have entered a caveat against this will. Mr. Wood has left about 1,800,000/. in the Bank of England. His real pro perty is believed to be worth about one million. His Excellency General Count Sebastiani gave a grand dinner on Sunday evening at Hertford-house, Man chester-square, in honour of the fete-day of his Majesty the King of the French, to the Marquis of Lansdowne, Viscount Melbourne, Count Pozzo di Borgo, Baron de Blome, Count Bjornstjerna, Baron Moncorvo, Count d'Ag*, M. Humme. laeur, Nourri Effendi and his Secretary Prince Vogorides, Count Ludolf, Baron Bulow, Baron Ompteda, Marquis and Marchioness de Choiseul Praslen, and the Count de Gram mont, Secretary to the Embassy. Her Majesty's first grand state ball at St. James's being fixed for Friday the 13th instant, the parties fixed for that day are postponed. His Royal Highness the hereditary Prince of Orange, with his two sons and suite, are expected to arrive at Mivart's Hotel, Lower Brook-street,. to-morrow, from Am sterdam. The Dutch Minister, M. Dodd, who occupies apartments at Mivart's, will receive the Prince on his land ing. His Highness a ill be present at her Majesty's next draw ing -room, and several grand entertainments will be given in honour of his arrival. DEATH OF THE COUNTESS DOWAGER OF GLENGALL.—Her Ladyship, who had entered her 70th year, was found dead in her bed in Grosvenor-street yesterday morn ing. On the previous evening she had engaged herself to dine with the Earl of Clare, in Belgrave-square, 'but begged they would not wait beyond eight o'clock, as she felt herself rather indisposed with a slight cold. The Echo de Rouen states that it is the intention of a deputy, whose name it does not give, to bring in a Bill for authorizing the vote by proxy. Ministers would thus be secure of the votes of functionaries without calling them from their duties. DUBLIN ELECTION PETITION.—Nothing of iM portance took place at the sitting of the Dublin Election Com mittee yesterday after our reporter left. MR. BULWER'S " DEVEREUX.”—This novel is again exciting extraordinary attention by its cheap re-publica tion in Colburn's Modern Novelists. The entire three volumes arc here comprised in one, elegantly printed, with two fine em bellishments by Wright, for six shillings! In Devereux the author has given the imaginary autobiography of a friend of Lord Bolingbroke, whose fortunes were in the highest degree singular and romantic. Bolingbroke is a leading character, and the picture, drawn by the novelist, of this great man, is acknowledged to be one of the finest and most dramatic spe cimens extant of literary portraiture. Pope, Swift, Addison, Steele, Colley Cibber, Fielding, Sir Godfrey Kneller, Lady M. W. Montagu, the celebrated Duchess of Marlborough, and other interesting personages of the time, also figure in the work. WHISKEY.—Last Monday, at a public meeting in Berwick, a petition to Parliament was adopted for the equali zation of the excise duties on whiskey. The present duty per gallon in Scotland is only 3s. 4d., while in England it is Ss. 2d. ASSAULT EXTRAORDINARY.—On Monday last, as a commercial gentleman was proceeding to this town from Taunton, on passing Castle-hill his progress was unceremo niously interrupted by the progress of an angry goose, jealous of the safety of her young progeny ; who, after a few menac ing hisses and cackles, flew up and perched herself on his shoulders, and, with flapping wings, assailed him right and left. Unprepared for such an extraordinary encounter, it was not without some difficulty that he at last freed himself from his disagreeable assailant.—Sherborne Journal The Savings' Banks of Paris received on Sunday, the. 24th, and Monday, the 25th of April, 3,787 deposits, 635 of which were fresh ones, amounting to 561,439 fr. The sums claimed amounted to 410,000 fr. The r ece ipt s of April amounted altogether to 2,363,765 fr., paid in by 16,624 de positors, 2,493 of whom were new ones. Sir William Follett has experienced a slight return of his recent illness, which has confined him to his room for the last week. MASTER IN CHANCERY.—It is reported that Mr. Senior refused the offer of the vacant Mastership on the terms proposed to him—namely, that he should submit to a reduc tion of the salary and emoluments to a sum not exceeding 2,0001. a year, and that consequently there will be no final arrangement until after the Bill now before the House of Lords for the Reform of the Chancery Courts be settled in its details. MEETING OF THE BARONETS.—On Friday a nu merous meeting of the Baronets of England was held at the Clarendon Hotel, Bond-street, for the purpose of adopting measures for their resuming the rights of their order, such as bearing the ancient style of " The Honourable," and wearing the badge of the Baronets of Ulster, being similar to that of Nova Scotia, worn by the Baronets o f Scotland, which privi lege was granted to them by Charles the First. Sir John Chetwode, Bart., was in the Chair. Richard Broun, Esq., the Hon. Secretary, then read the report, which stated that upwards of 220 had sent letters approving of the views of the meeting. Various resolutions, embracing the objects of the meeting, were passed. A proposition was then made and adopted—by most of the Baronets present putting down their names as members—to form a Baronet's Club, also to form a Chapter House for their meeting. A traveller in Persia tells us that many people in that country " swallow 16 melons before breakfast." How ever true this may be, many persons we should think will doubt whether the Persians or their historian have " the widest swallow." GOSSIP ABOUT ROYAL MARRIAGES ABROAD. —Several persons who have resided during the last winter at Vienna, assert that the conversation in the various salons of that capital turns a good deal on the approaching mar riage of the Archduchess Maria Theresa Isabella, whose hand has been sought by several princes. There was at first some talk of the Hereditary PEnce of Bavaria, who went to Vienna, but unsuccessfully ; then of the Hereditary Prince of Russia, who met the young Princess at Toplitz, without making any impression on her heart; then of King Otho, of Greece, who seems inclined shortly to return to Germany. The Duke of Orleans has also been spoken of. Not only the Princess Theresa, but her father, Prince Charles, an d the Emperor also, were opposed to the union with the Czaro vitch, and they look upon the Greek kingdom as scarcely con solidated yet. Prince Charles is said to have observed that his daughter should not be sacrificed to polical objects, and that her choice should remain free. The Archduchess is be tween nineteen and tweenty years of age, very pretty, simple in her manners, and well brought up. Of all the Princes of the house of Austria Prince Charles is least a slave to etiquette, he even enters the hotels near Vienna accompanied by his daughter, and delights in conversation with the middling classes.—French Paper. The lambing-down of the Southdown flocks is now nearly over, and we are sorry to learn that the season has been attended with great losses.

The boat Lady Chalmers, of Broadsea, left Fraser burgh, several weeks ago, deeply laden with cod fish and her rings, for the Frith of Forth. No accounts of her safety have reached home ; and from the state of the weather the day after she sailed, there is too much reason to fear that the crew, four in number, have perished. —Edinburgh Courant.

DUBLIN ELECTION COMMITTEE (THIS DAY.) The Committee met this morning at half-past eleven o'clock. Mr. THESSIGER resumed his argument, in which he was in terrupted by the adjournment on Monday. He contended that no evidence of bribery had been given against the unsuc cessful candidates. In his former observations, he omitted to state a most important fact—namely, that Knaggs, whom he described as a faithless wretch, and unworthy of cre dit, had voted on the Friday of the election for O'Con nell and Ruthven. The Learned Gentleman proceeded at considerable length to comment on the evidence—on the discrepancies therein, and on the gross misconduct and vexa tious delay of the sitting members and their agents in pro tracting the enquiry before the Commissioners in Dublin. He denounced the witness, Knaggs, as a foul conspirator against West and Hamilton, assisted by others whom he would not name, who procured his voluntary affidavit at an early stage of the proceedings ; and when they had arrived at almost the end of the scrutiny, coming forward to describe this as the most important part of the enquiry. Mr. Thessiger had not concluded his statement when our reporter left. SHIPPING.-(THIS DAY.) (FROM LLOYD'S.) DEAL, MAY 2.—Wind N. N.

The black buoy from the north end of the Inner Bowsing Sand has been picked up adrift, and cannot be placed until the weather moderates. It is blowing a gale from N. E. to E. HARWICH, MAY 2.—Arrived the Arid, Coltman, and the Marys, Chicken, both from London, for Newcastle, with damage and loss of anchors and chains, having been in contact. The Thomas and Ann, from Boston to London, was totally lost on Brancaster Sand yesterday. THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY). CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. For a length of time we have not had so blank a morning for intelligence and arrivals as to-day. No French mail has arrived; this dearth of information is occasioned by the north-easterly winds. TILE FUNDS. Consols opened at the leaving-off prices of yesterday, 91 91 1 1 for Account ; same for Money ; Exchequer Bills, 18 20 India Bonds, 45 ; Bank Stock, 210 211 ; India ditto, 257 258. The speculations in Joint Stock Companies are now viewed with less alarm than a few days ago. Although they have in creased, and may produce in the end some mischief, se far as the participators in them are concezned, it is conceived that there is a degree of steadiness and solidity about the other great money transactions of the period which will secure them against any shock. Our manufacturing districts arc in full activity, and the only difficulty is how to get the orders executed with the despatch required ; and our trade to all parts of the world is in a most flourishing state. _ _ _ In the Poreign Market scarce a bargain doing, as we have no information either from Paris or the Peninsula. Spanish Ac tive may be quoted at 45N- ; Passive, 14 : 12 ; Deferred, 22k; Portuguese, 8314 ; Three per Cents., 52-; Colombian, 324- 33 ; Mexican, 35 36 ; Dutch Two-and-a Half per Cents., 56H. HALF-PAST ONE. We are still without any arrivals, which causes a great dul ness in the City for want of intelligence. Consols have been during the morning at 91i a for the Ac count, and 91i 4 for Money. Exchequer Bills, 18 20; India Bonds, 3 5 ; Bank Stock, 2101; India Stock, 2574- 2581. In the Foreign Market the chief speculation has been in Spanish Active Bonds, which have improved from the morn ing price of 45a-1 to 461, at present may be quoted 46 to -I, owing to a report that M.

Consols for the Account, 91 la. The magnificent collection of pictures forming the Royal Collection in the state apartments at Windsor Castle, of the sight of which the public have so long been deprived, has again been arranged, and is now open for inspection ; many new pictures of great value have been selected from the other Royal Collections, and the whole is displayed in a manner so as to exhibit as far as is practicable the works of the artists separately, and thus give a better idea of the value of the collection than could have been done by any other ar rangement. The glory of the collection are the works of Rubens and Vandyke, which decorate two of the largest apart ments. The whole have been admirably cleaned since their removal from the old apartments, and are hung in excellent lights. A better entrance to the state apartments has been recently opened. At the head of the staircase is placed the portrait of Sir Jeffery Wyatville, painted by Lawrence for George IV., in 1829; it has been placed in its present situa tion by command of his present Majesty. EXECUTION.—On Saturday, Peter Taylor, who was convicted at the Norwich Assizes of being an accessory with Frances Billing and Catherine Frarcy in the murder of his wife, Mary Taylor, was executed on the bridge leading to the Castle. He persisted to the last in asserting his entire Innocence, not only of the crime for which he suffered, but of every criminal circumstance connected with it; but his vindi: cation of himself was so general, and so at variance with facts that can scarcely admit of doubt, as to deprive him of all claim to credit. APRIL 29.--A most horrible and melancholy event occurred on Tuesday evening, in Nadsbeck-wood. Mrs. E., an English lady of Hull, went out walking with a Mr. P., when he drew a pistol from his pocket, and discharged it at her head. He deliberately exclaimed, '6 What's that ? " and ran towards the place from which it seemed to have been dis charged, took off his coat and waistcoat, reloaded the pistol, and shot himself through the heart. Mrs. E., after recover ing from her swoon, walked above 1,280 feet to the inn. It was then found the ball had passed completely through her face, and carried some part of the gum and check bone away. She lies very ill, but hopes are entertained of her recovery. Mr. P. has left a wife and three children.—Hamburgh Paper. The public flogging of Kennedy and Smith, which the Court sentenced them to receive last Saturday, was obliged to be postponed, as the Jersey executioner, who is occasionally afflicted with epileptic fits, was deemed unable to perform the task with sufficient nerve. Our authorities have, conse quently, written to Guernsey, to request the Court of the sister island to allow its " finisher of the law" to take a trip to Jer sey, and officiate for his brother " Jack Ketch" on this extra. ordinary occasion.—Jersey Argus. AN M.P. AND A P.B.—A pinchbeck watch was presented by the grateful Tories of Halifax to the representa tive of their interests. This pinchbeck watch, which was given to Mr. Dinsdale for his eminent public services, as one of their candidates, at the election of 1832 ; and his, less emi nent perhaps, but not less useful, secret services since—the Halifax Blues so generously presented to that champion of Tory Teetotalism, Mr. Dinsdale—it is too true, we repeat, that that watch, in one of its noble owner's periodical fits of t e mperance-aberration, found it way to the sign of the three balls.—Halifax Express. DREADFUL FIRE AND Loss OF LIFE AT FINCHLEY.—This morning, about half-past one o'clock, a fire was discovered to have broken out in some stables adjoining the Queen's Head public-house, Church-row, Finchley, and from the rapidity of the flames they soon communicated to the Queen's Head. The inmates effected their escape by jumping out of window ; but we regret to state that an elderly gentleman, name unknown, has fallen a sacrifice to the flames. Several engines were soon on the spot, but n otwithstanding the vigorous exertions of the firemen, as sisted by the inhabitants, and an excellent supply of water, before the flames could be extinguished, the stables arid the Queen's Head public-house were entirely consumed. The cause of the fire is not yet ascertained. The unfortunate gentleman's body has not been found. The proprietor (Mr. Plabray) is insured in the Protector Fire-office. A STYLE !—" The enraptured and ardent young lover, hastily construing a short pause into an affirmativ e '', blithely left them to the enjoyment of their palpable amuse ment at his precipitancy, and flew with ecstatic celerity to proclaim himself liberated from all mundane shackles, to her with whom he thought eternal bondage would be a state ce lestial."— Madame D'Arblay's Memoirs of Burney, Vol. 1., P. 78. MAGAZINES-CONTINUED. THE NEW MONTHLY BELLE ASSEMBLEE. There are several pretty tales and verses in this Number. The plates of the fashions Wu are tolerably executed. As the price is less than half the cost of the other Magazines, it is placed within the reach of those to whom the smallest pecuniary saving is important. THE SPORTSMAN. The embellishments of the May Number of the "Sports man" are the pair of Arabian horses sent from the Imaun of Muscat as a present to our gracious Sovereign, William IV. They are noble looking animals, worthy of the prin cely donor. The articles are very good of their kind. The best is one on the origin of the Game Laws. THE MONTHLY. Sherwood 4S• Co. The " Monthly" improves. There are several interest ing and some instructive articles in the May Number. The article on the " Resources of Russia," and the " Stric tures on Works recently published respecting the present state of our trade with China," are particularly good. The " Lines by Lady Jin-She," from the Chinese, would not have been worth the trouble of translating were they the only existing monument of Chinese literature. As it is, the author, instead of palming them upon a lady of any nation, should have published them as the first scribblings of a sentimental parrot. The article respecting Mr. Francis Place and Fraser's Magazine, is, we think, quite uncalled for. Mr. Place's friends are more solicitous for for his peace of mind than we are sure be is himself ; as he has too much good sense to take offence, or otherwise trouble himself, about what every person laughed at as a mere jeu d'esprit. The " Recollections of Sir Walter Scott" contain nothing respecting the habits and senti ments of that extraordinary man which is at all new to us. MONTHLY REPOSITORY. Fox. Paternoster-Row. " State of the Canadas," the first paper in this Number, strongly advocates a popular form of government for our North American colonies. The tone of its animadversions on the conduct of the Home Government with respect to Canadian affairs is by no means either friendly or cour teous. " Spirit of Modern Publishers," is highly eulogistic of the only Meceenases of whom literature can boast in our day. " The New Gagging Bill " points out the hardships which the new Stamp Act will impose upon printers and publishers. This is a subject of great importance both to the public and the trade, and we have no doubt the Chan cellor of the Exchequer will make such alterations in the Bill as will remove every suspicion of hostility to free dis cussion on the part of the Government. " Social Classi fication" and " Cursory Remarks on Prejudice," are papers which indicate considerable powers of thought in their respective authors. THE LONDON AND EDINBURGH PHIL O. SOPHICAL MAGAZINE. R. Taylor, Red Lion-court. The present Number of this Magazine will be peculiarly acceptable to the scientific reader. Among the most in teresting of the articles are those on " Physical Geology," by Mr. Hopkins, and " Observations on the Lines of the Solar Spectrum," by Sir David Brewster. To Ichthyologists the " Catalogue of Fossil fish, in the Collections of Lord Cole and Sir P. G. Egerton," must be a treat. Under the heads " Proceedings of Learned Societies" and " Miscel laneous Intelligence," we find, as usual, a great abundance of useful information on scientific subjects. THE CHRISTIAN REFORMER. Sherwood, Gilbert, and Piper. The present Number of this Magazine is enriched with a great variety of articles, which bear ample testimony to the ability with which the religious views of the sect whose opinions it represents are supported by the con ductors of the work. The dispute between the Presbyte rians and the Independents and Baptists, respecting the power of the former Body to withdraw from the others, is not yet settled. " The Ministers of the Two Denominations," says the Christian Reformer, " have at length (their own organ, the Patriot, slightly reproves their tardiness) published counter resolutions to those of the Presbyterian Body of Ministers. These will be speedily met, we are informed, by additional Resolutions of the latter body, and by an exposure of the mis takes, assumptions, and evasions which run through their document. The whole will probably be given in our next Number. " Two things are amusing in the Resolutions of the Two Denominations, and the comments upon them in their Maga zines and Newspapers; one, that three members of the Scot tish Secession Church, holding its Synod in Scotland, are unanimously' declared to be the Body of English Presby terian Ministers (for ' English' is always understood when the Presbyterian Ministers of London are spoken of)—the other, that the ' orthodox' boast of being purged of Unitarianism by the Withdrawment,' whereas Unitarianism still cleaves to them, in what way we need not describe, and some of them, we know, look with uneasiness at this taint in their orthodoxy.' " THE FARMERS' MAGAZINE. The agricultural interest has both zealous friends, and enlightened instructors in the conductors of, and the con tributors to, this very useful periodical. The writer of a letter, signed " A Cumberland Weaver," appears to us to take a most comprehensive, as well as just view of the real interest of the farmer, and the various communications on the Tithes Commutation Bill, will be read with lively in terest by all whose property may be affected by the mea sure now before Parliament. The Agricultural Reports are very fully given. The following review of the Corn Trade during the month:of April may be important to many of our country readers : " At the commencement of the past month, the prevalence of rainy, cold and ungenial weather, not only checked sowing and field-labour, but prevented vegetation from evincing any progressive improvement. Low, strong lands were rendered unfit to receive the seed, and wheats in many places exhibited a sickly appearance, turning partially yellow, and looking thin and unfavourably; the re-appearance, however, of sun shine, about the middle of the month, had an invigorating ef fect on the plant, which assumed a deep and healthy green, tillering out strong, and covering well the ground, while the farmer has been enabled nearly to conclude the sowing of his Lent corn. Vegetation and germination are extremely back ward, but under the mild influence of the present month, the plants possess the full embryo power of rapidly advancing, and partially retrieving the time that their vegetative powers have remained dormant ; affording little opportunity, from ex isting appearances, to enter into further speculative purchases, on the probable result of the crops ; as there is reason to be lieve there is sufficient plant to produce a fair average per acre; but accounts seem to concur in stating, that the breadth of wheat sown this season is less than usual, particularly in the midland counties, which is attributable to the low price of wheat, and the failure of the turnip crop having prevented farmers breaking up land they otherwise would have done. No doubt the backwardness of the season has operated advan tageously for the farmer, as it has been one of the causes of bringing the state of the trade under more general notice, added to the prosperous condition of almost every other branch of commerce; indeed it is a gratifying remark to make that our manufactures are in a state of almost unexampled ac tivity—our mines, that important source of national wealth in full and profitable operation—our commerce busy, and con sumption, the faithful index and concomitant of prosperity, going forward on a largely increased scale of all the necessaries and many of the comforts of life. With a productive harvest, grain may be now calculated at a fair value, but with an infe rior or even a middling crop, prices are yet low and will be materially influenced by the weather." PARLIAMENTARY SUMMARY. In the LORDS' yesterday, after the presentation of some petitions, the Stamford Disfranchisement Witnesses Indemnity Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be committed to morrow. The House then went into Committee on the Irish Constabulary Bill, when the consideration of the several clauses occupied the remainder of the evening. Lords Roden, Wicklow, Londonderry, Ellenborough, and some other Peers of the same party repeated their obsolete objections to the Bill. The whole of the clauses being at length disposed of, the House resumed, and the report was ordered to be received on Friday. In the Comm°Ns', among a gr ea t many p e titi ons on var i ous subjects, were 29 for the total abolition of the stamp duty on newspapers. Mr. Sharman Crawford presented a petition from landlords and tenants of Ballyninny, in the county of Antrim, praying for the total extinction of tithes, and all com pulsory payments on pretence of religion. They stated that the compulsory Tithe Composition Act, instead of affording relief, had immensely and unjustly increased the burthen of the tithe. Lord John Russell intimated that it was his wish to bring forward, during the present Session, some measure on the subject of Church rates. The English Tithe 13111 was considered in Committee, and 32 of its clauses were disposed of. Dissatisfaction with its provisions was generally ex pressed, and by other Hon. Members than those who, with Sir R. Inglis, hold that " the existing system of tithe is superior to any that can be devised." The Dublin Police Bill passed through Committee, and the House then, at Half-past Twelve o'Clock, adjourned. WEYMOUTI-I.—The projected Breakwater for Port land Road has met with such universal sanction, that no doubt is entertained of the speedy commencement of this grand na tional undertaking.—SAerborne Journal.
