• Chairman observed, that " in rising to propose a toast, it is not uncommon to preface it with a few short remarks. But the high character of the dignified Personage I am about to pro pose, needs no comment from me; it is too well known to you all. The many, laborious, and' Christian-like actions of our worthy Diocesan bespeak ' volurnes. Gentlemen; I trust you all are too well known to me, for a moment to doubt, that the distinguished Dignitary of our Church, whose health I shall have the honour to give from the chair, from his kind and essential services conferred on our parish on former as well as on the present occasion, will be otherwise than received by you all with those sentiments of gratitude impressed by a sense obligation conferred. I have the honour, therefore, to propose to you, the health of our distinguished guest, the Lord Bishop of Chester." The Ilisnor in reply, said—" For the very polite and ob liking attentions I have received from you this day, and the honour you have now done me, by drinking to my good health, I beg you to accept my most sincere thanks ; and believe me when I assure you that I do it not in common language, but from the heart. To me it is a most pleasing and gratifying thought to observe among you so' much unani mity, concord, and Christian love, as have been manifested in the whole of your proceedings of the day. And on an occasion like the present one, to see so many respectable characters unit ing their endeavours and co-operating with us to give success to that cause which has for its peculiar tendency the happiness, the comfort, the peace, present and eternal, of this and of gene rations yet to come, must not only impart to me and to all here present, the greatest of earthly pleasures, but inspire us with unabated ardour to complete and establish this our pious work. In the little service I have rendered you in promoting this truly Christian design, I cannot think that I have done more than a (lutY incumbent upon me : and, if my endeavours at any future period can be of service to you and the parish at large, I shall feel myself most happy in serving you. • Allow me, therefore, in return, the pleasure of drinking to all your good healths." The Rev. CHAIRMAN before leaving the chair took occasion to apologise for his early departure, justly observing, that a further prolongation of the festive meeting would hardly be in unison with those feelings which had been inspired by the ser vices of the Morning. The genera hilarity of heart with which all classes seemed to Participate in the truly interesting ceremony of the morning, af- I:G rded a scene pleasing to the mind, delightful to the eye, and grateful to the feelings ; and which will long live in the happy reeollecticm of every beholder. The building will be executed in the Gothic style. The • estimated expense will be upwards of 13,2001. ; 2000 of which have been raised by the liberal subscriptions of the Gentlemen of the town and neighbourhood. The site of the church and burial ground, containing upwards of 15,C1i0 square yards, has been presented by the Earl of Stamford and Warrington,'with a most liberal donation of 700 guineas. The design of the structure reflects the highest credit on the superior ability of the architect, Mr. Goodwin, London ; whose Plans and. designs for this sacred edifice, and those for the in tended ne* Police Office, Manchester, have been received with I that decided approbation to which his high character and Merit Qs an architect justly entitle him. • 1 • T.; 1 7 13 RT.-11 7 e have received a communication respecting the pmasonic Melodist, published at Bury in 18121, but it will not able us at present to answer the inquiry of onr correspondent 1 C•• T.

THE S SOL r QUIS DICERE FALSUM AUDEAT L, viI URSDAY, O NOVEMB NDON ER 1, 1821 Til e French Papers of Sunday and Monday, a aroburgh Mail, and Lisbon Journals, have ar rived' Their contents are inserted under our head of FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE, and the tartieles relating_ to Russi a an d T ur k e y w ill b e " n cl of a d ec id edly warlike character. All the lett ers received at Paris from the North and from Turkey concu r in representi n g the immediate ro 4bilitp I,rat Y of war; a n d th e art i c l es f rom A ntwerp, )k - r°rt, and other German towns, are confirma r3 °f the hostile disposition of the Turks, and e republication of the Hatti-Scheriff by the G RA ,. ma ' 4 SIGNIO R , ca lli ng upon all true Mussel " to fl y to arms. Military preparations to a large extent are carrying on at Constantinople, and the accounts even go so far as to say that the Standard of the Prophet is to be raised on the Mosque of St. Sophia, a measure .which is never resorted to except when the Empire is threatened with immediate and formidable attacks, and is in imminent danger.. The indications of approaching- war between Russia and Turkey arc multiplied daily. The Journal de Paris asserts that commercial letters from the North now speak of war as almost inevi table; and a Frankfort article states that letters had been received at Vienna from Constantino ple, announcing that the Standard of Mahomet had been hoisted on the Mosque at St. Sophia. If so, war is inevitable indeed, or rather it has already commenced. There is also a rumour, which, however, we rather wish than believe to be true, that Persia has declared war against Turkey, and that hostilities have actually com menced. A Persian war would be almoSt ,as fa vourable to the Greeks as a Russian campaign, by distracting the attention and dividing the force of the Ottoman Empire, while at the same time the independence of Greece would be bet ter secured, and afford less ground of jealousy and distrust to, the Courts of Europe, if achieved without any further aid from Russia than is now afforded by the position of her armies, and the doubtful policy of the Cabinet of St. Petersburgh. It is really disgraceful that the British public view the' struggles of this interesting and oppressed people with so much apathy. Dr. LEMPRIERE has indeed opened'a subscription, by paying over ten pounds, with his respectable name, to a banking - -house, for the formation of a fund to be applied in aid of the Greeks; but we have not heard that his generous and praiseworthy example has been followed. The Doctor is perhaps not aware that it is indispensable to the success of a measure of this kind to hold a public meeting, or at least to form a Committee for receiving and appropriating the subscriptions. If one or both of these steps were promoted by a public-spirited individual, we still think that public opinion would be strongly manifested in favour of that oppressed and heroic people, to whom the civi lized world is so much indebted. We wish that Dr. LEMPRIERE would either call a public meeting, or request some of his friends to form themselves ili.o a Committee, and to take the necessary public steps for giving effect to his laudable intentions. There never has been, and perhaps never will be again, an occasion on which British liberality could exert itself with more benefit to mankind or honour to itself. We have too many subscriptions, the sole pur pose of which is to gratify vindictive feelings. Mr. WunrtAnAm, for example, frankly avows that he has given twenty pounds to Sir ROBERT VILSON, " not so much with the view of indem nifying the gallant General for the pecuniary loss that he has sustained, as to join with others in expressing my decided indignation at the iniqui tous proceedings of the Governinent."—This is giving money, whatever may be its intended ap plication, from a motive which we think Mr. WILBRAHAM himself will on reflection perceive to be unworthy of him. We are sure that the British Public are disposed to yield to better feelings, and to combine for the attainment of higher and nobler purposes. The voice of an oppressed Christian people has surely not ascended to Heaven in vain. Let us, by an effort worthy of a great and free people, extend our succour to them in the hour of their extre mity ; and let our motives be, not so much those of indignation at the iniquities and atrocities of the oppressors, as of generous sympathy with, and commiseration for, the oppressed. American Papers arrived this morning, to the 30th Sept., and Montreal to the 23d Sept. [From the New York Advertiser of the 27th Sept] MEXICO.—We yesterday announced that an Armistice for three months had been entered into by the Pi'riot and Royal troops in Mexico; we find, however, on perusing the translation of the document, furnished by the Havannah Noticiose Mercuric! of the Bth Sept., that on the 17th of July a suspension of hostilities between the Royal troops in Vera Cruz, and thoSe of the Pa triots besieging the place, subject to the approval or rejection of the Geheral-in-Chief of the Inde pendents, had alone taken place, and that no period for its continuance or termination, is stated in the article ; in fact, it seems to depend on the will of the Patriot leader. An armistice for three months may, no doubt, have followed as a consequence of this suspension of arms at Vera Cruz, but the Journal we have quoted makes no men lion of this event. [From the New:York Gazette of. Sept. 284 . BOARD OF HEALTH, SEPT. 27.—There have been reported to the Board of Health, by the Resident Physician, two cases of malignant fever. The Board also state, that two persons who were taken sick were sent down to the Marine Hospital ; both had worked on board the ship Maria, lying at quarantine, a sickly vessel, from which four persons had died at the Marine Hospital. LAW CHANGES.-Mr. Baron GRAHAM and Mr. Baron WOOD have retired. We have not yet authentically heard who are to succeed them. Advices from Lisbon state that the congratu latory address of the Portuguese residents in London to the Cortes was presented at the Sit ting of that Assembly of the 11 th of October. The address was received with every mark of distinction, and the President moved 44 that it should be printed in The Diario do Goverizo, in order to render manifest to the whole of Europe, the harmony existing among the great Portuguese families in every part of the world." lie also moved that it should at the,same time be noticed, that none of the Members of the Legation in London had signed the address.

[FROM ACKERMANN'S REPOSITORY OF ARTS, FASHIONS, &C. &C.] PROMENADE DRESS.—A pelisse, composed of dark violet coloured velvet ; the body is tight to the shape, rather long in the waist, and a good deal sloped at each side of the back. The sleeve is an easy width; it is terminated by a French cuff; the pelisse wraps across in front, and is trimmed with satin of th,e same colour. A cachemire shawl is thrown over the shoulders, and fastened at the throat with a brooch. Lace ruff made very Head-dress, a bonnet composed of violet-coloured velvet, and lined with white satin. A very full plume of violet-co loured ostrich feathers is placed on one side of the crown : boots of violet kid ; Limerick gloves ; ermine muff: EVENING I)RESS.—A round dress, composed of blond net over a White figured satin slip. The corsage. is cut square round the bust, and is ornamented with a wreath of Provence roses. The sleeves, which are very short and full; are of blond over white satin ; the fulness partially conceals the roses which form it into draperies. The bottom of the skirt is finished by a wreath of Provence roses placed near the edge. This is surmounted by a trimming of the same material as the dress : it is in folds; they are edged with white satin, and form cavities, placed 'at some distance from each other ; a bouquet of roses is put in every ca vity. A coral wreath is placed rather far bade. Net lace and ear-rings pearl. White kid gloves and. white satin slippers. [FROM LA BELLE ASSEMBLEE.] FRENCH WALKING DRESS.—Round dress of light willow green sarsnet, with .two flounces next the hem; above which are four tucks surmounted by a double flounce. The dress is made partially high, pelerine caps. Bonnet of white chip, or namented with clover and gauze ribbons. Cachemire shawl of raspberry red, variegated border. Kidd half boots, the colour of plumb blossom. White gloves. ENGLISH CARRIAGE DRESS.--:-This is an exceedingly be coming carriage -dress. The pelisse is composed of a Cachemire of very rich appearance and effect,. the colour of which is a fine cream colour. The trimming is of foliage of great beauty and simplicity, disposed with the most charming effect ; its colour is that of Ceylon ru by ; th e mater i a l of which it is com posed is a very rich and elegant satin. The course followed by the foliage trimming is first down the sides of the pelisse, and thence round the border. The cape of this imposing dress is made double,' and is of the description generally understood by the term curricle cape; it is also finished with a very handsome trimming of foliage, and has an elegant display of Hungarian military buttons, which are set at equal distances from each other. The whole of this singularly superb dress is finished in a most tasteful manner by a falling cape-collar, of the same colour as the trimming already men tioned,•viz. that of the Ceylon ruby, and its material, a Genoa velvet of great brilliancy and richness. The bonnets most gene rally worn with this carriage-pelisse are of various fashion, as may be deemed most becoming to the varying circumstances of age, figure, height, and all those nice distinctions which the eye of taste will catch, but which can scarcely he described. The tout-ensemble of the effect of this carriage-costume is light, elegant, and tasteful, while it displays a richnes of general effect, and well calculated to assist the complexion. The Dowager Marchioness of Londonderry, it is expected, will quit Mou;)t Stewart, Newton Ards, near Dublin, for the express purpose of passing the rest of her days in this country. On Monday morning her Royal Highness the Duchess of KENT , the Princesses Vic . roalA and FEODORE, attended by the Baroness de SPAEDT, Mademoiselle L EVZ AR, and Captain CONROY, left Bognor, on her Royal highness's return to the King's Palace at Kensington. RAMSGATE, 30.—Some expectations are formed that our gracious SOVEREIGN will again honour this town with his presence very soon, by landing at our pier on his return from Hanover; although this event may depend on various cir cumstances besides wind and weather, yet there is some foundation for the probability of his MA- J EST Y'S intending to disembark here, as we know' from good authority that a squadron of the 9th Lancers, and a detachment of the 86th 'Foot, have received orders to be at this place on Wed nesday, the 7th of November, being part of the same regiments who had the honour of escorting and receiving his MAJESTY at the time of his embarkation. The Venus steam vessel being sent to Calais to receive the KING'S luggage, and the Royal yacht being ordered to the Downs, confirm the idea of his MAJESTY'S land ing at Ramsgate. The exterior of the King's Palace, in Pall mall, has undergone repairs previous to his MA JESTY'S return to England. It has been new I painted, &c. The Palace-yard has been new paved and gravelled. Yesterday, BENJAMIN CHARLES STEPH ENSON, Esq. the Surveyor Gene ral of his MAJESTY'S Works and Public Build ings, and the Right Honourable CHARLES LONG, the Chairman of the Committee for the Inspec tion of 'National Monuments, attended on the Parade in St. James's Park, and gave directions. for the spot where the celebrated French Bomb is to be placed, which is between the west side of the wall of the CHANcEr.Lon of the EXCHE.• QuEit's garden and the Canal. During the autumn a considerable imprcve ment has been made in HYDE PARK, near the Chesterfield Gate. The flat part there, which was so low as to be often overflowed, and was somewhat unwholesome to the neighbourhood, has been raised by a thick stratum of brick-rubbish, now pretty well covered with mould. The new ground is, however, too extensive to be turfed, and it may be long before there is a good sod upon it. A resolution was moved by Lord SUFFIELD, and unanimously agreed to by the Magistrates at the Norwich late sessions, recommending that workmen's wages should be paid not l ater i n t h e week than Friday, with a view to the better ob servance of the Sabbath, and to enable the p oor to make their purchases without i ts violation. . , ~....)

By the trim taper, and the blazing hearth, (While loud without the blasts of winter sung), Now thrill'd with awe, and now relax'd with Mirth, Palm, I've roared thy varied haunts among, Loitering where Fashion's insect myriads spread Their painted wings, and sport their little day ; Anon, by beckoning recollection led To the dark shadow of the stern ABBAYE, Pale Fancy heard the petrifying shtick Of midnight Murder from its turrets bleak, And to her horreiit eye came passing on Phantoms of those dark times, elaps'd and gone, When Rapine .yell'd o'er his defenceless prey, As unchain'd Anarchy her tocsin rung, And, France ! in dust and blood thy throne and altars la Oh, thou ! thus skill'd with absolute controul, Where'er thou wilt to lead th' admiring soul, Gifted alike with Fancy's.train to sport, Avid tread light measures in her elfin court; Or pierce the height where Grandeur.sits alone, Girt by the tempest, on his mountain throne : IVhate'er the theme which wakes thy vocal shell, Well-pleased I follow where its concords swell ; In regal halls, wherepleasure wings the night With pomp and music, revelry and light, Or where, unwept by Love's deploring eyes, In the lone Morgue, the self-doom'd victim lies, — Then, midst the twilight of yon Chapel dim, To mark Religion's reverend Martyr, him Who kneels entranced in agony of prayer, His fellow victims torpid with despair, Thrill'd by his pier c ing ton es , 'hi s beaming eye (flow, as he glows, nor longer dread to die !

The Court was then occupied in hearing the arguments of Counsel in several cases of Bankruptcy. There were, however, not any of public importance.—The VICE CHANCELLOR also heard Counsel in his Court. COURT OF KING'S BENCII. - Yesterday the Court was occupied the whole day in hearing arguments upon cases from the Court of Chan cery, none of which were of the least public interest. ExcLisn OputA Housr..—This Theatre opened last night for the benefit of Mr. BENGOUGH, late Of Drury Lane, and now the Stage-manager at the Surrey Theatre, a respectable actor, who ought to have retained his former situation. The lay was Richard the Third, and the part of the Hero was performed by Miss CLARA FISHER'. She certainly possesses extraordinary talents for one of her early age ; but acting is a profession re quiring study, labour, and experience, and, sunk as the public taste is, by the introduction of a new species of acting, which would not have been tolerated in former and better days of theatri cal judgment, we are wholly adverse to these juvenile and immature exhibitions. We can indeed excuse them on benefits, when novel attractions may be necessary ; but while we see meritorious Performers, of both sexes, excluded from the regular theatres, without assigned, or justifiable reasons, we must oppose such revolting experiments on the public, who have a right to de mand the return of those who are able to support the legitimate purposes of the Drama. The minia ture actress of last night, besides her performance of Richard, appeared as Little Pickle, in the Spoil'd Child, Crack, in the Turnpike Gate, and as The Actress of all work, in all of which she displayed great spirit and versatility, and we have only to add our hope that Mr. BENGOUGII pro fited by her exertions. _ _ Miss K ELL Y, it seems, is studying the part of Rosalind, in As You Like li. With her intuitive good sense, arid genuine humour, we conceive that " little preparation serves her turn," and that she will give an animated portrait of the admirable original. The great succcess of the new Macheath, at the Haymarket Theatre, according to report, has induced the Winter Managers to make her good offers to remain in town. • The celebrated Sono- of The Wolf was com posed by our tdmirdEnglish musician SHIELD, for The Castle V./hula/us/a, and was first sung by the elder BANNISTER. It has newer since been so well sung as by. Miss BLAKE, at the Hay mar ketT hea tre.

MONTHLY REPORT FOR Ocroumit.= W heat sowing is more backward in the principal Corn districts than usual, from the necessity of get ting out the produce of the last harvest to meet the general pressure for rent, taxes, tithes, &c. What has been early, sown on tilth and clover leys plants well. Though the prime samples of Wheat and Barley begin to command better prices, the average is kept low, by those of inferior quality, which continue to overload the markets. New Beans come up in too soft a state to meet a brisk sale, even on lower terms. Good dry Oats are worth more money. Red Clover seed has in general been ill got up from the unfavourable weather, and will consequently prove a light crop ; the White from tender soils will be more productive. The principal Turnip counties con►p>laiu much of the mildew from the great luxuriance of the blade. The early Swedes have felt it most. Cole-seed is everywhere good. The Grass lands are still full of feed, keeping the Hay market rather depressed. Hops turned out a better crop than the planters looked for ; but many hundred rows in Kent were, left unpicked on the poles ; the present reduced value not being deemed sufficient to pay the duty and expences. The Woollen 'manufac tories in the North being now in full employ, has given a start to the Wool trade, indicating a further advance. The Meat market, though still largely supplied, is better both for Beef and Mutton. At the late Vairs of Peterborough, Leicester, &c. but little business was done in Lea❑ Stock, though North-country beasts, and Galloway and Highland Scots, were offered at reduced prices. Store Sheep and Mulch Stock are worth more money. At the Bedford Ploughing Match, on the 19th ult., )which was numerously attended by the first agriculturists of 'that county), there was an unusual degree of interest excited. Twenty ploughs entered the field ; but the principal competition lay between Messrs. Bachelor's, of Lid lington ; Messrs. Ransome's, of Ipswich ; and Messrs. Alley and Jetfere's, of London (called the wet and dry Aveather. plough). The prizes were all decided in favour of Ransome's patent ploughs. The Minutes of the Evidence taken before the select Committee of the House of Commons on the Supply. of Water to the Metropolis, together with an Appendix, containing sundry papers re lating to the subject, have been printed by order of the House. They occupy upwards of 240 folio pages, and present a•complete history of the rise and progress of the Metropolitan Water W T orks Companies. It is anxiously expected that Mr. TAYLOR'S Act will be amended in the ensuing Session of Parliament, by the addition of a clause for pre venting the conveyance of soap lees in large quan tities through the metropolis. Almost every night in the week a very large cart-full of this material drives through the Strand, emitting a most horrible and pestilential stench, endanger ing the health of the inhabitants and numerous passengers in that very populous part of the town. On Tuesday the Lottery began, and there were only Four Prizes drawn above the value of 2001. Every ono of those Four were sold by 131-u, viz. the Grand Prize, No. 7,849, 30,0001., No. 602, 1,0001., No. 2,032, 3001. and No. 6,275, 3001.
