BRUSSELS, AUGUST 22.—His Majesty, on his last visit to Paris, obtained the cross of Officer or Knight of the Legion of Honour for twelve Belgian officers. Several of the French officers in the Belgian army have returned , o France; the number of those who remain is reduced to fifteen, viz., one general officer, two lieut.-colonels, three majors, eight captains, and one lieutenant. Orders Irive just been given to the troops that had been sent to the province of Luxemburg to return to their usual garrison. We learn that this measure has been adopted because there is no longer any appearance of a conflict on account of Martelange, and the Cabinet of the Hague has repeated the most satisfactory assurances that the differences shall be left entirely to th e d ec i s i on o f t h e Boundary Commissioners. A letter from Berlin of the 12th inst. says nothing is yet known of the subject to be discussed in the As aernbly of the Delegates of the States from the German Commercial League. We hear, however, that among the subjects to be brought forward are the duties on sugar, reprisals to be adopted against the prop bitory system of Russia, and the introduction of a commercial code. We give these as reports. A re duction of the postage of letters is likewise spoken of, which is likely to meet with more opposition in Germany than in England. It is said that the chief object of Dr. Bowring's mission is to enter into a negotiation with Prussia on this subject. The negotiations between the English and Prussian Governments for the reciprocal pro tection of literary property continue. England is naturally very desirous to exclude f rom t h e G erman mar k et t h e Belgian piratical editions of its literary productions, but we are not so interested on this point, because the enormous duties imposed by England on foreign books are nearly tantamount to a prohibition. BRUSSELS, Atm. 3.—We have received accounts from Charleroi, which are of a serious nature. It appears that the deplorable accidents that: have occurred in the coal mines of the province of Liege, have induced the en gineer to propose to the Government precautions of so un usual and extravagant a nature that the proprietors and workmen declare them to be absolutely impracticable in the mines of Charleroi. Twenty Mining Companies, whose mines furnish the whole of the important part of the emit basin of the Sambre, have received a circular from the Government stating the measures proposed by the chief engineer of the mines of Mons. The working of the pits is to be suspended till the measures are carried into effect. Above 30 pits, which supply all the important manufactories of that district, will be shut up if the owners refuse to comply with the proposals made to them, which pit is said, they have unanimously declared to be impracticable in the basin of the Sambre. VIENNA, AUG. /4.—The Archduke Palatine comes from time to time from Presburg to visit the Imperial family, and give an.account of the proceedings of the Diet, which do not seem to be answerable to the wishes of the country. Prince Metternich was seized yesterday with an indisposition, which, though slight, confines him to his apartments. There are almost daily consultations at the Chancery of the Ambassadors of England, France, Russia, and Pius is. Every week there is an exchange of couriers be tween this city and Constantinople, London, Berlin, and Paris. Though the proposal to make Vienna the centre of the discussion respecting the East, is not agreed to, pe r h a p s on account of a me re f orma li ty, yet these discussions have been going on for some time ; and as the Powers are fully agreed respecting the basis of arrangement between Me hemet Ali and the Porte, and the latter has accepted their intervention, we may expect with confidence the speedy pacification of the East. The Russian Ambassador, Baron Von Tatiscbeff, who r is absent on leave, is expected here shortly. THE HAGUE, AUG. 20.—His Royal Highness Prince Albert of Prussia, who is expected to•day or to-morrow, is at present in the Bosch. His Royal Highness Prince Fre derick is expected to return to the Hague about the 21st or 23d instant. PROVINCE OF ZEALAND, AUG. 18.--With the exception of the military movements occasioned by the dismantling of the fortresses and the forts, everything here is in a state of the most profound peace. BREDA, AUG. 19.—We hear that the Council of War (or rather permanent court martial) of the army in the field, will be dissolved at the beginning of next month.- W e hear nothing certain of the disbanding of the militia of the class of 1837, whence it is supposed that this will not take place till the militia of the class of 1839 are called into service. BRUSSELS, AUG. 21.—1 t is said that unforeseen circum stances, in which politics however have no share, may, perhaps, prevent M. Dubas de Ghessigms from accepting the post which has been proposed to him, of Minister of Belgium at the Hague. Nothing, however, can be posi tively affirmed on the subject. I have even reason to believe that M. Dubas do Ghessigms will go in a week to the Hague, either to enter on his functions, or to make the King acquainted with the reasons which will oblige him toCieclitie the honour of representing the King of the Belgians in Holland. In the latter case it seems that the choice of our Government will fall on Ptince Joseph de Chimag, eldest son of the Prince de Chimag, Chamberlain to King William, and formerly member of the First Chamber of the States-General. HAMB LIRGr MA IL. M UNICH, Ana. 14— A report has been spread here that the Duke of Leuchtenberg and his young consort may be shortly expected here, on a visit. Without posi tively denying the truth of this report, we can only say that according to the latest and most authentic accounts, it is more likely that the Prince will make a tour in Russia, probably to the southern provinces. Great joy has been caused here by letters from Berlin, according to which there is uo longer any doubt that the German commercial league will be prolonged for another twelve years. We were indeed prepared for such a result after the negotiations, but so many reports have lately been spread respecting certain pretensions which it was affirmed w ere made by Prussia, that people brgan to be uneasy. The dissolution of the league would make a very unplea sant impression in Central and Southern Germany. Now, however, hopes are entertained that some accessions to the league will be made at Berlin. FRANKFURT, AUG. 13.— We hear in tho commercia world of a Cabinet loan which a neighbouring sovereign (the Grand Duke of Hesse Darmstadt) intends to contract with an eminent basking. hctr - e. The occasion is said to be an agreeable family affair, which will be attended with an extraordinary expenditure, which the Sovereign in question prefers defraying out of his civil list, though he s entitled by the Constitution to call on the Estates to meet the charge,. HANoVEte, Aun. 18 —At Court all is very still ; the Kieg was indisposed for some days, but though he was obliged to have medical advice he did not omit to ride out every day as usual. His Majesty avoids everything that might make a change in his extremely regular plain way of living, and his constitution is accordingly vigorous, not withstanding his advanced age. The Quee❑ is often ill, and is rather severely indisposed As the Court expects in the next fortnight the return of the Duke of Altenburg, who will stay here some time with his family, it seems that their Majesties will not undertake any journey this summer —only the King will perhaps go to Frankfort to pilot his August Sister. The proceedings against the Magistrates go on very slowly, all the members, including the Senators, have been examined but once. The address of thanks from the town of Limburg to the Magistrates of Hanover surpasses all the preceding ones in the vehemence of its expressions. BERLIN, Aco. 16.—Their Royal Highnesses the Crown Prince and Princess have already returned to Berlin The Cabinet Minister Von Rochow, and M. Eschoru, Councillor of Legation, have likewise returned. M. Von Meyendorff, the Russian Ambassador, has re. turned from Schwerin. MUNICH, AUGUST 1 I.—We hear that the conflicting notions respecting the affairs of llanover have considerably approximated to each other. It is said that a frequent exchange of dispatches has taken place, and that it has led to a result at which there will be every reason to re joice, even should it not unconditionally satisfy (as appears to be the case) the extreme svisbes that are cherished by the friends of the Constitution of 1 833—Ramburgh Papers, August 20.

B LAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS. Copy of a Letter from the Chevalier De la Garde, Chamberlain to Stanislaus, late King of Poland, (To Mr. Prout, 229, Strand, London.) No. 20, Vere.street, Dec. 11, IS3B. Sr 11,-1 feel myself bound by the duty I owe to my fellow —creatures to request that ou will publish the follo w i n g most extraor _ dinary effects of Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills. For a period of 30 years I have suffered more than I can well express, but at all times have avoided taking advertised remedies, having a power ful antipathy to them, until a few months since, after having been laid up for 22 weeks of an attack of Rheumatic Gout, principally confined to the feet, but at times it travelled to various parts of the frame, and then returning again with accumulated force to the extre mities, and to such a degree that I was delirious for five (Lys and nights. I now say that, foi tunately I was induced to try Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills ; and, with truth, I assure yourself and the pub lic that, in less than 24 hours, I was free from pain; and by the time 1 had taken half a box, the inflamation and swelling had disappeared. I have the pleasure of adding that my general health has in no way suffered, and that the effects of Blair's Pills were imperceptible. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, THE CHEVALIER DE LA GARDE. The testimonials of the astonishing effects of this Medicine are universally accompanied by the fact, that no inconvenience of any s •.rt attends its administration, but that the patient, without feeling the operation of the medicine, is universally left in a stronger and better state of health than experienced previous to being afflicted with this d'sease ; and in all cases of acute suffering, great relief is obtained in afew hours, and a cure is generally effected in two or three days. This valuable discovery is sold by Thomas Prout, 229, Strand, Lon don , and, I) his appoi ntment, b y all res pectable Medicine Venders throughout . the United Kingdom.

PETERSBURGH, AUG. Io.—The Journals of this city publish a ukase, addressed by the Emperor to the Senate, together with a supplementary order relative to the apanage which the Grand Duchess Maria is to have. The former document is as follows : " To the general and perfect satisfaction of our whole Imperial house, our well-beloved daughter the Grand Duchess Maria Nicolajewna has married the Most Serene:Duke Maximilian of Leuchtenberg, and is to settle in our empire with her husband. On the occasion of so desirable an event we have considered it our most gratifying duty to establish the position of her Imperial Highness upon a permanent foundation, and in a manner suitable to the dignity of her high station. We con ceive that a million of roubles fixed by the organic law of the Imperial family as the marriage portion of a Grand Duchess, cannot by any means suffice for the support of an establishment, and therefore much less for insuring the welfare of her posterity, should it please Providence to bless her with it. Seeing, by the ac counts of the Minister of the Imperial Court, that in the present situation of the apanage estates, the reve nues thence arising do not only suffice for all the pur poses for which they are intended by the organic law, but that there are besides considerable sums in hand towards increasing the apanage funds, we ordain, from a feeling of cordial attachment to our well-beloved daughter, the Grand Duchess Maria Nicolajewna " 1. In addition to the million of roubles from the public treasury, allotted by the organic law as a mar riage portion, 600,000 roubles;Bank assignats, from the apanage funds, shall be settled upon her Imperial High ness and her descendants as an annual income. " 2. There being in the organic law of the Imperial family no precise regulation providing for the substitu tion of a money revenue for the apanage estates, we have deemed it necessary to issue a supplementary or der on that point, which we herewith transmit to the directing Senate, conferring upon it all power and effi cacy which, accordinr , to our laws, the provi s io ns con tained in the orga n i c law enjoy." In the supplementary order it is provided that the apanage revenue shall be hereditary in the Grand Duchess's descendants, as long as they remain in Russia, and until their extinction, after which it is to revert to the general apanage fund. The children arc to inherit it immediately on the death of the Grand Duchess; in which case her husband, if he remains in Russia, shall have the guardianship, but shall be bound, as guardian, to account for it to the Emperor. If the Grand Duchess and her descendants die before the Duke of Leuchten berg, he will receive 200,000 roubles out of the 600,000 roubles, according to the marriacre settlement. He will receive the sum if, after the death of the Grand Duchess, her heirs be only of the female sex. The latter, if they remain in Russia, are to receive 400,000 roubles, and 200,000 if they do not remain in the country. — , THE POOR IN DUBLIN.--It appears tnat since the Poor-law Bill passed the public have ceased to give their usual voluntary contributions to the Menclicity Insti tution. Appeal after appeal has been made to them in vain, and the only alternative the Managing Committee have is to march them in procession through our most fashionable and crovrded streets. Three thousand four hundred beg gars, in all their filth and rags march through the streets of Dublin, some of them carrying placards, with various statements of the condition of the Institution—" Eight hundred pounds in debt for food alone" is one of them ; "We must beg or starve" another. Heading the proces• sion are the benevolent gentlemen of the Committee, and after them several of the floats filled with the children of the schools The Poor-laws will not come into operation until next year; in the meantime the immense number of wretches may perish if not supported by the citizens. The Poor-law Commissioners have no power to advance money, nor will the Government. And with all this poverty no. less a sum than 20,0001. will be expended next week at that scene of profligacy and drunkenness, Donnybrook Fair. The Cambridge Chronicle last week indulged in a passionate paroxysm, and tells us that " the town of Cam bridge has been doomed to witness one of the most pre cicus specimens of political profligacy ever enacted, to the great and lasting delight of all lovers of trickery and dis. honesty I" And then falls foul of Mr. Rice in the follow ing fashion. "A Chancellor of the Exchequer after rewarding his political supporters with a truly lavish gene rosity contrives to compound for the virtue of gratitude by utter ignorance of his business, by a most practical course of incompetency, and a most entertaining muddle of financial concerns; until, laughed at by his friends, con temned by his compeers, and reviled by his opponents, he feels the pressure both from within and without to be too strong for him, and uses the coward's remedy of flight, remembering full well that ' He who fights and runs away, May live to fight another day.' Thus, to the immortal honour of his sagacity, h av i ng di s . covered that the House of Commons is no longer a fit sphere for the exhibition of his much esteemed self, he condescends to double the asinine long ears, he has so justly and laboriously earned, beneath the circlet of a pitch-forked coronet." EGLINTOUN:I,CASTLE, NEAR ARDROSSAN, WEDNESDAY'.—The Earl of Eglintoun, "the patron of the lists and chivalry of yore," arrived here from the Kings Arms Hotel, Dumfries, on Saturday, to hasten forward the tournament arrangements, that all may be in order by the 28th instant., the day fixed for the commencement of the sports. Sir Chas. Lamb and Lady Montgomery, the Earl's mother, who is, it is understood, to do the honours of the Castle, have also a rrived. The Mar q ui s of Bute, Lord Kelburne, Sir Fred.

Lad y Seymour, the Queen of Beauty and of th e Tournament, expected to arrive at the Castle on Saturday, having l e f t town with her Lord by the railway on W ednesda y . Her Ladyship's dress for the occasion, made by Howell and James, of Re gent_street, is composed of a jacket of ermine, the skirt of violet velvet, with the front of sky blue velvet, on which are her Ladyship's arms, (those of the Duke of Somerset), richly embroidered in silver, and a coronet, or crown, rich ly ornamented with jewels. The Marchioness of London derry's dress is composed of similar materials. Her Lady ship's dress was made at Holdernesse House, under her awn direction.

PRICE sd. IDOLATRY IN INDIA. TO THE RIGHT REV. THE LORD BISHOP OF LONDON. MY LORD —lt is not on account of the particular connexion which I happen to have had with the subject of your Lordship's motion in the House of Lords en Tuesday last, but it is as a member o! the Christion community that I desire to acknowledge myself deeply indebted to your Lordship for the zoal and ability with which your Lordship on that occasion exhibited ti.e true state of the question which has lately been agi tated, in respect to the propriety of our assisting in the heathenish rights of the Hindoo worship. Next to the importance of giving to the people of this country an accurate knowledge of the truth as it re spects this question, it is material to its right and satis factory adjustment that the efforts which are used to that end should not be misapprehended in India, either in respect to their object or extent. And lam per. suaded that if pains are taken to prevent misapprehen sion, there will be found on the one hand no resentment, and on the other no occasion for alarm. There are one or two points in respect to which any public discussion of the question in this country is too likely to afford ground for erroneous impressions, either because all who take part in the discussion have not that intimate knowledge of its several bearings which oppor tunities of local observation can alone confer, or because such as have enjoyed those opportunities are too apt to imagine that it is not necessary to explain distinctly what to themselves is so familiar and obvious. I do not mean that in the statements and observations of your Lordship any room was afforded for the error to which I more particularly allude ; but from the tone of some part of the highly interesting discussion which followed, it is possible that an erroneous idea might be formed of the change which every Christian must desire to see introduced into the practice of our Government in India. It cannot be too plainly avowed, or too earnestly inculcated, that all that was intended by the Court of Directors in their despatch of 1833, and all that is desired by those who wish to see that despatch faith fully acted up to is, that the Hindoos shall be left to perform by themselves their acts of public worship to their idols, unaided and unmolested by the civil or military authorities of the Company. Hitherto we have given our positive countenance and active support to this idolatrous worship. That hence forth we should abstain from doing so is the only change that is contemplated, or ever has been contemplated. Neither the Government, nor any of its servants, have proposed or desired that the natives should, by any compulsion, be constrained to abandon their own religious observances or to adopt ours. However slow may be the effect of teaching, example, and persuasion, the most zealous Christian was not only content to look to no other h uman means o f con version, but to any other. That himself oter. prohibited by his religion from That we do either intend or wish to propagate the Christian religion by force, in our Eastern possessions, is not imagined by any part of the people there, and there is no point on which we ought to be more careful than to preclude the possibility of such an inference being drawn, from anything that may be done, or said, in this country. But, ,on the other hand, nothing can be more vain and unreasonable than the fears of those persons who imagine that the forbearing to assist in the superstitious and idolatrous worship of the East will excite tumult and hostility, and be resented by the natives as an inva sion of their religious freedom. Blind as their attachment is to their superstitions, they do not require that we should become idolaters : and I venture to assert, that whenever the Government shall think fit to allow their own order to be executed (as I imagined they did intend to do, or rather bad done, when I accepted the military command at Ms.. dras), they will find that our native subjects in India are not so unreasonable as to deny to us, even in their hearts, a right to exercise that religious freedom which they themselves so fully enj ay. I observed that in the debate of last Tuesday evening, in the House of Lords, it was asked by your Lordship what was the proportion of Mussulmans in the Madras army. It was a natural inquiry, for it is material to consider that in this Presidency the idolatrous worship of the Hindoos does not stand opposed to the Christian religion alone. It was replied, by the highest and most respected authority, the Duke of Wellington, that the proportion of Hindoos was by far the most considerable, and that the Mussulmans were almost confined to the cavalry regiments. I have no doubt that any member of the Court of Directors would have given a similar reply to your Lordship, and the information would have been perfectly correct in reference to a period which is now gone by, a period to is bleb his Grace expressly alluded. At present, however, the following is a just statement of the proportion of the different creeds in the Madras Native Army—viz. Mahometans Hindong Other creeds It will be evident from this statement, which is nearly accurate, that the being compelled to attend at the Hindoo festivals is naturally distasteful (to use a mild term) to considerably more than half the native army. Speaking of this attendance, a veteran and highly respectable officer of the Mahometan creed re marked, "We obey in silence, but (laying his hand on his heart), it makes uneasiness here." This species of uneasiness, however, is not always so passive. It exhibited itself recently in overt acts at Mysore, and made the presence of two regiments of cavalry and one of infantry necessary to restore tranquillity. I refer to one other instance, because it produced from the Hin doo officers and Sepoys of a regiment a proposal which is worthy of attention. " Let us," they said, "in future attend our own festivals, and you do the same yourselves ; we will not hereafter interfere in the Mahometan feasts." These plain boundaries of toleration are too obvious not to be acknowledged by the most ignorant, and even by the most prejudiced and unreasonable. It is what we have hitherto done upon a contrary system that (to say nothing of religious obligations) has tended to produce perplexity, and confound distinctions which out to have been preserved. We are the ruling power in India, and when the Hindoos see us managing. their Pagoda revenues, directing their ceremonies, and pre senting offerings to their idols, they can but draw the inference that our Government is countenancing and supporting their heathen worship, willingly and from choice ; or, at least, that they arc indifferent to the pre cepts of Christianity, since it is evident that they are acting under no necessity. The intention of the Directors' despatch of 1833 was simply to correct this error—to assert practically the claim of equal rights on behalf of all parties where their conscience is concerned. So far from there being any foundation for the appre hension that a ground so reasonable cannot be fairly taken, I believe this to be precisely the position which is the most safe and easy, as well as most just, to maintain. As often as our stations are visited by the preachers of reformed Islamism, who strenuously inculcate on the Alussulmans that idolatry is abhorrent to their faith, we must expect that the repugnance of Mussuirnans to at tending at the Hindoo festivals will increase; and I know that it is the opinion of some of the ablest of the Company's servants in the Peninsula, that our safest and best position in respect to the native worship would be that of perfect neutrality. I have thought it important, after reading the debate of the other night, as it is reported in the newspapers, to address your Lordship in this public manner, in order that in India it may be thoroughly understood that the well-known dispatch of 1833 was not a blow aimed at the religion of the natives, but was intended to secure to every religious denomination the full and free exer cise of their own religious observances, and to all a perfect liberty of conscience. I have the honour to be, my Lord, Your Lordship's very faithful servant, P. MAITLAND. Bedford-lodge, Brighton, August 16, 1839. THE LAW ON DRUNKENNESS.-Allen Col lins, a rather well-dressed young man, was brought before Mr. Combe, upon the following charge :—A man, named Cross, said that, being out of employment, he betook him self to sell a few oysters, at a stall in the Commercial -road. On the night before the prisoner favoured him with his custom, and, after clearing the whole board of its stock of fish, and, being told the amount was Is. 6d., he declared he bad not a farthing about him. The prisoner, in defence, said he was drunk at the time, or he would not have acted so. Mr. Combe remarked that the Magistrates at that office had not enforced the clause relative to drunkenness in the new Act, and he thought the prisoner would be a very proper person to be g in with. The prisoner be gge d hard to be let off, saying be had a wife and family to pro vide for, and seven days at the treadmill whoiaulddebbet parnoddue-e tive of the most serious consequences to him. He also pealed to one of the officers for his ehanraarertnewr, easneclapesaifdraerim would most willingly pay the oysterman ex penses to be let off.

The fire was got under by two o'clock, but considerable damage was done. How it originated is unknown. Our readers are aware that by this Act, which is now law, the whole of the existing establishments of the different police offices are abolished, and that their naaeagement is now vested in the Commissioners of Po lice. The number of officers originally attached to the eight Metropolitan Police Offices, with the exception of Bow-street, was eight each, but the vacancies that have taken place in them during the last three or four years have not been filled up, except in very few instances, so that there are at present not more than between forty and fifty men attached to the whole of the police esta blishments upon the old system. As b y the Pol i ce Act, which has just passed, these appointments have absolutely ceased and becom e null, they are at Present only doing duty pending the decision of the Commis ' sioners of Police and Secretary of State as to how they are to be disposed of. Many of these men, the public are aware, are must active and experienced eMcers, and who have Len instrumental in the detec - - (ion of the most daring cffendfrs, not only in the me tropolis, but in all parts of the country, and some of the principal officers at Bow-street, in addition to their re gular salary and emolument, were in receipt of salaries from foreign governments for their exertions in the dis covery of offenders against them. It was an understand ing, when the police offices were placed upon their original footing, that the appointment of constable was to be considered as a permanent one for life, except in case of misconduct. A communication was on Friday sent to the police offices, directing that in future, no warrants or summonses should be served by the old officers, and at the same time requesting the clerks to state how many men they consider will be required of the police force to perform that service. This pro- , ceeding, it is supposed, is preparatory to the immediate and entire removal of the old officers from their attendance upon the magistrates at the different police offices. No thing decisive has, of course, yet transpired relative to the ultimate intention of the Secretary of State upon the subject ; but it is said, in quarters likely to be well in formed respecting it, that, as the capabilities of these men for performing certain duties are admitted, it is intended not to deprive the public altogether of their services ; but that those who choose to accept the ap pointment will be placed under the Commissioners, and will form what may be termed a body of detective police, acting under the orders of the Commissioners, and receiving the pay of a superintendent. They are not, it is said, to have any uniform, but will be chiefly em ployed in the country, as their services may be required. In the course of a few days it is expected that the new police will be placed upon permanent duty at all the metropolitan police offices.--Sunday Times. REMOVAL OF BOLAM. On Wednesday Archibald Bolam was removed from Morpeth, in a post-chaise, for embarkation on board of a London steamer to convey him to the hulks, to be ready for transportation out of this country to his as signed destination, where he will spend the remainder of his days in the most abject slavery and wretchedness. To a person of his habits, and previous employment, such a situation as he is destined to occupy, to the last span of his existence, must be a more dreadful punish ment than even death itself on the ignominious scaffold. By some means or other the fact of Bolam's shipment at Newcastle had publicly transpired, and on the ap proaches thereto a dense crowd assembled, many of whom were prepared with stones, rotten eggs, and filth, to ac cost the wretched prisoner. On the arrival of the chaise the crowd was so thickly planted, and a determination to violence so clearly manifested, that the chaise was sud denly turned round, and driven at a rapid rate to the Newcattle and Shields railway station, where it arrived just in time to catch the train before its departure. Bolnm was safely, and in comparative privacy, placed in a carriage (heavily ironed, as it was understood), and the train started fbr Shields. The steamer left the quay at Newcastle, and Bolam was safely put on board, taking his last farewell of Newcastle and Northumber land, where he has spent so many happy and respectable years. The children of poor Millie were, we have heard, but which, we think, is not very probable, al lowed to be present on the quay at Newcastle, at the period. If this were so, it was not proper, or at all calculated to preserve peace and order in the contem plated embarkation, and may have frustrated the object intended, in putting Bolam on board of the steamer at the usual place. Much money we have been told, was given to these poor orphan children, who are deserving objects of charitable consideration. Bolam was accom panied in his ignominious exile by five or six other con victs, all heavily ironed ; these are of a class in which he will not find much communion of sentiment or station and which will doubtless increase the pangs of his punishment. We understand Bolam has made every effort to induce his relatives at Harbottle to emigrate to the place of his transportation, that he may derive from them all the sympathy he can obtain in the close and severe custody and labour in which he will be kept.— Sunderiand Beacon. EXTENSIVE PAROCHIAL DEFAL- CATION. The greatest excitement has, during the present week, prevailed throughout the extensive parish of St. Luke, Chelsea, in consequence of the discovery that Mr. Wil liam Turner, the vestry clerk, had absconded, having let in the parishioners in various ways to a very large amount. It appears that, in addition to that of vestry clerk, Mr. Turner held the situation of clerk to the Church Trustees, and to other of the local boards, with the moneys belonging to Ashich, it is believed, he has freely helped himself, besides having incurred debts and obtained loans, it is said, to the extent of between two and three thousand pounds. On the 4th instant he had a cheek delivered to him for near .500/., with which to pay the County-rate, which it appears he im mediately changed for notes at the banker's, and again changed them 'or gold at the Bank of England. On the following day he left town to attend, as he said, a case of appeal at Poles-hill, in Warwickshire. At first no suspicion was raised at his not returning, and his wife, on being applied to, produced a letter she had re ceived from him, stating that he was coming home along the banks of the Wye, the scenery round which he was much enjoying. Tyco or three days afterwards his wife received another letter, in which he informed her he mu,t never again show his face in Chelsea ; that he had taken nearly every body in, and must find some corner in a distant land to hide his head. Subse quently a third letter has been received from him, dated Chepstow, enclosing to his wife a check on a London banker for 25/. ; and in consequence a warrant has been issued for his apprehension, and placed in the hands of an old and experienced officer, who left town ;:on Thursday morning. A reward of 501. has been offered by the parochial authorities for his capture. A TALE OF A TUB. It is seldom a Jonathan can be matched in this coun try.

One of his stories would have made a capital History,' In the hands of Dugald Graham, and might have been entitled—' The Wonderful Adventures of praline Mitchell, tailor,' showing bow that Daunie, in fly ing from a gauger, took refuge in a cooper's shed, where he hid himself in a barrel. How the cooper came and knocked on the head of the barrel, while Daunie lay within and durst not discover hirspelf. How a bull came past, and, while rubbing himself against the barrel, was seized by Daunie by the tail through the bang-hole. How the bull roared and Hang, and knocked Daunie and the barrel into the Water of Avr. How Daunie stopped the bung-hole with his coat-tail, and went swimming down the water as far as the town of Ayr, when the folks on the river side, every one cry. ing ' The barrel's mine—the barrel's mine 1' drew the prize to land. How that, finding the barrel to contain something heavy, it was broken open, when out jumped Daunie, exclaiming . The barrels yours na, the barrel's mine!' and marched off with it in triumph, while the good folks of Ayr scampered away helter skelter, believing him to be no other than the devil himself." —Ayr Observer. , - P RI NCE GEORGE OF 1-I ANOVER.—The cele brated (says the Hanover correspondent of the Journal), who has undertaken the cure of the Royal, and who has hitherto entertained the hope of g ogr.y for him the use of one, if not both his eyes, has de e ef: c ipß l nr ared that his Royal Highness's malady appears to incurable, and that it is useless to subject the Prince j t hrbFP o ucirnisrcra a tiaontdv operation.
