HENRY HOWE'S STATEMENT OF HIS OWN CASE. grs . t had a swelling in my side in the latter part of Feb r uary , bo applied to Dr. eb, o Lond on, whose p rescri ns t ("o k many weeks, and inank f the month of June followin p g need In v side and thumb. I left London July Ist, and came } tome to Orchard, when I drank, as I was ordered, sassa fras, sarsaparilla, and root liquoric e durin g a long time ; after which I d ran k dandelion and dock roots several weeks. In August I removed to Ilalscombe, where I took medicines for six or seven weeks, which were prescribed to me by Mr. Col lins. In the latter part of September I returned to Orchard, and finding myself ri:4 better was induced to try Dr. Green's Drops, and consulted Mr. Titticut t, who put a seton into my knee ; this was a little before Christmas. After suffering a long time, I was persuaded to try Mr. Churchill's Medi cines, anti applied his Ointment to my wounds, sixteen weeks. Finding no benefit, I applied to Doctor Chorley, and took his prescriptions. March 10th, 1831, came home to ifilscoml'e, and was ordered to drink lime water, 44 apply fresh butter to my wounds. After trying this in vain, I consulted Dr. Baker, taking his prescriptions, and applying mercurial ointment to my wounds, with lotions and herb poultices to the swellings. My increased sufferings led me to apply again to Dr. Collins and - Dr. Sully ; I took their prescriptions ten weeks, applyin g poultices, Poor Man's Friend, and caustic to the wounds, but without any benefit. After wards had recourse again to Dr. Green's Drops, with poultices and Poor Man's Friend, but these and many other remedies, were all in vain. I despaired of ever finding relief from my sufferinga, when at Christmas, 1832, Morison's Universal Me dicines were recommended to me, and I took them in doses from four to twenty-two pills each day—after taking them about three weeks my pains were greatly abated, and I was enabled to turn in my bed and change from side to side, which I had not been able to do during twenty months before, from the dreadful state of my wounds. By continuing these Pills every day during twelve months, I was able to get up and walk about with my crutches—a blessing which it was never expected I should enjoy—l had tried every doctor within many miles, and it had cost me scores of pounds to no good purpose ; they all srid no medicine could do me any good. Ido believe if I had known these Universal Medicines a-year and a-half before, I should never have been a cripple; but I am thankful to God that I now know them, and that I have experienced such unexpected good from his medicines, I am bound in gratitude to Mr. Morison to make this •as public as possible. I well know that a person must not be afraid to take any number of these Pills, the more ,they take, in such a case as mine, the more good will they do. They have not cost me 5/. during the time I have taken them. 1 am now without any pain, have a good appetite, and sleep well, being in the enjoy *sent of perfect health, and have been for the last eighteen months. All my wounds are healed, but the scars aan testify what. I have suffered, these still remain, but I need neither crutch nor stick, and am able to work in my garden and at my various employments. I send this to Mrs. Beanham, General Agent for Somerset and Dorset, and request her to publish it for the good of the afflicted. Witness my hand, ( Si g ned) HENRY HOWE, Landlord of the Rock Inn, Exton, Somerset. Witnessed by The Rev. C. W. H. EVERED, Rector of Exton, and by JAMES YOUNG, April 24, 1839.

It is admitted in Great Britain, and known to be but too true by all who have had personal experience of the real state of India, that although a commercial intercourse has existed between the British Isles and India, for more than two hundred years, and the-Government of this Empire now rules over a hundred mil lions of the inhabitants of the East, there is, nevertheless, a general want of information upon Indian affairs, and an almost total indifference felt respecting them. It must be obvious to , allwho reflect upon those facts, that such a state of things con trasts strangely with the duty we owe to our distant dominions, with the extent, the value, and the importance of our East Indian Possessions, and with the many and vast interests in volved in the question. British India is an Empire as large as Europe (exclusive of Russia), with a population, including tributary States, of more than one hundred and fifty millions. Over this Empire and People, a sway is exercised wholly British ; and consequently, the want of an accurate knowledge of Indian affairs, and the absence of a proper interest in the public at large for the wel fare of the natives, must operate prejudicially upon their minds, since they cannot but feel that their destinies are in fluenced by the disposition manifested towards them in the parent country. From the perusal of a variety of official and other docuinents of recent date, it appears that ignorance, poverty, crime, and disaffection, prevail to a distressing and alarming extent throughout the British Indian Territories. It also appears, that during the last twenty years, though a period of profound peace, there has been a succession of famines of the most deso lating description. It has been estimated that the famine of 1837-38, in the Upper Provinces of Bengal, swept off more than half a million of the inhabitants. Famines are this year ravaging the Northern Provinces of Bombay and Madras. These calamitous events are rendered the more mysterious and affect ing, when viewed in connexion with the statement, that the soil of India is a soil of unequalled fertility, and that a very large. portion of it (by some authorities, computed at one half) lies uncultivated, and covered with jungle, the haunts of wild beasts. Information on these subjects has, within the last few months, been laid before the public in various parts of the Kingdom. The result has been, a deep feeling of compassion in the minds of many humane and influential persons, and the formation of Associations for promoting the welfare of the natives of India, in Sheffield, Glasgow, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Edinburgh, Darlington, &c. A strong feeling has, besides, been expressed for the establishment of a Metropolitan Society for the same object ; by whose inquiries and efforts, the friends of India, throughout Great Britain, might be guided and assisted in this new and benevolent undertaking. • In consequence of these circumstances, and in accordance also with their own deep feeling of interest in the subject, the individuals whose names are attached to this Prospectus, have, after mature deliberation, resolved themselves into a Provi sional Committee, for forming a Society, to be designated the " BRITISH INDIA SOCIETY, for bettering the condition of our fellow-subjects—the Natives of British India." In making known this resolution to the public, the Com mittee consider if their duty to state very briefly, but distinctly, their motives and plans. The Committee has its origin in a regard for the welfare of the natives of India ' who, owing allegiance to the Government , are entitled to look for sympathy and succour from the people of England. The Committee desire to found the proposed So ciety upon the strictest principles of justice and humanity — upon a basis which will permanently exclude the adoption of party, of sectarian, or mercenary views. They contemplate the use of those means only which are moral, peaceful and consti tutional. They would suggest, and labour to secure, the delay of all specific plans of amelioration, until every doubt respecting the nature and extent of alleged existing evils, and the neces sity of remedying them, is entirely removed. The primary duty of a BRITISH INDIA SOCIETY would therefore be—to obtain from every available source authentic and impartial information respecting the present actual condi tion of the natives of India and the circumstances of the coun try, and to give to the information so obtained the widest pos sible circulation. The means of accomplishing this necessary preliminary object appear to he, viz.:— To bring together, analyze, condense, and diffus, the facts already at hand. To adopt the best means of obtaining'regular and syste matic information from all parts of India. To begin a collection of the most useful Works on every branch of the subject. To issue, under proper management, a Periodical Publica tion, containing the most recent, important., and inte resting Indian intelligence. To reprint, in whole or in part, such Works as may be calculated to elucidate particular portions of the great subject. To employ an active, experienced, and effective Agency, for the organization of Provincial Auxiliary Societies. The judicious and zealous prosecution of a course, such as has been now described, would, the Committee feel assnred, effectually remove the apathy which at present. exists. That apathy, they believe, may with justice be ascribed to the diffi culty which has hitherto attended the search after correct and comprehensive information, respecting the condition and cha racter of the natives of India, and the nature and effects of Bri tish rule in the East. The Committee entertain no doubt, that, when the vast im portance of our Possessions is understood—when the claims of one hundred millions of British subjects are recognized and felt —and when the responsibility and moral obligation of this nation towards them are considered, a great and generous effort will promptly be made, to benefit a country, which contains within itself, the means of returning a hundred-fold into the bosoms of its benefactors, all the blessings they can possibly confer upon it. The Committee prefer to make their appeal to the just prin ciples and Christian feelings of the country. They are not ig norant' however, of the extent to which they might address themselves to the loyalty, the patriotism, and the interests of their fellow-citizens; but they believe that such an appeal is unnecessary. They feel convinced that no argument is required, to demonstrate the inseparable connexion between the bettering of the social, moral, and intellectual condition, of the countless millions of India, and the accomplishment of those ends which are sought by the promoters and patrons of legitimate com merce, and the advocates of the honour, the stability, and the prosperity of tne British empire, at home and abroad. The Committee having stated the objects, principles, and plans, according to which they are about to attempt the formation of a BRITISH INDIA SOCIETY, look with confidence for the sanction, support, and co-operation of the British public. They sincerely and earnestly solicit advice. They especially desire the aid of gentlemen who have resided in India, and who, after perusing this Prospectus, feel that they can cordially unite in the work proposed. Finally, the Committee respectfully solicit pecuniary assist ance. Subscriptions and donations still be gratefully received by the Treasurer, Secretaries, Bankers, and Members of the Committee. May 25, 1839. •,* It is the intention of the Provisional Committee to give due notice of the public formation of the proposed Society. and to invite the presence and aid, on the occasion, of those Friends, in different parts of the kingdom. who may have already espoused the cause, or who may be desirous of doing so. P. S. Since the First Edition of this Prospectus was issued, the Committee have received, from various parts of the country, the most encouraging assurances of sympathy and support. The Committee have been peculiarly gratified by the Resolution passed at the Annual Meeting of the Relief Synod of Scotland, on the 14th inst.—recognising the great importance of the object the Committee have in view, and pledging the co-opera tion of that respectable and influential body. The friends of humanity will rejoice to find that Thomas, Clarkson, Esq., the venerable and enlightened friend of African freedom, has heartily united with those who are associated in this effort for the improvement of the condition of their fellow-subjects, the Natives of British India.

FIRE IN SOUTH AUSTRALIA —ln January last a destructive fire occurred at Adelaid e , S out h Aus tralia, which reduced to ashes the Land.offiee, the private residence `and other buildings belonging to Mr. J. H. Fisher, the late Colonial Commissioner; the Survey-office, and the residence of Colonel LiglA, the late Surveyor- General. The tire commenced at Mr. Fisher's, in the atterroon of 22d January. and the roofs being composed entirely of thatch, the whole were soon in one mass of flame, although the alarm was given without delay. The conflagration was very rapid, and the loss of property con siderable, hut fortunately few valuable papers were de stroyed. The original map of the preliminary sections, and of the town, was saved from the Land-office, although partly damaged. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR—The above paragraph, which 1 have taken from your paper of Tuesday, the 4th of June, induces me to request of you a small space, that I may assist, as far as I am able, in promoting your views, as well as those of the most humane part of the creation, by endeavouring to make it apparent that the depriving a criminal of life, even for the atrocious barbarity of a cold-blooded mur- der, does not tend to lessen that most horrible of all wicked acts. Punishment, to be of any avail, should have a ten ency to deter the depraved from the commission of The philanthropist will, I believe, admit that Le fear of death had no efEct on the mind of George Time. Willis, when be determined on taking away the life of his fellow-being and brother soldier, William Shepperd. There requires no further proof of the non-effect pro duced on the dissolute by public strangulation ; but nu merous are the proofs of how much it hardens, and how reckless and callous it makes those who are inured to crime. With such of our fellow-creatures as feel a re pugnance to deprive a human being of life, under any circumstances, it has a tendency to create a sensitive feeling towards a wretch for whom no pity would be ex cited were his life spared. _ To deter from the commission of acts, contrary to the laws of nature, as well as the laws of our country, pu nishments should be unalterable, yet not crud— sufficient, however, to deter from that greatest of all crimes—murder. The man who can be so void of feeling for the rights of hi; fellow-beings, as to take away life, deserves not any sympathy; he should be treated as a wild beast, and, like the poor'l unfortunate maniac, deprived of the. power of further injurin g his fellow-man, but be made to labour for the remainder of his He, the produce of whose labour should be appropriated towards the support of that family which he has deprived of one of its members, perhaps its chief supporter.To deter the badly-disposed from the commission of a similarly horrible offence, the malefactor should be compelled to hard labour, within view of the populace, but at such a distance as to render communication impossible, and that the stranger may be made fully aware of the cause of so (I admit) cruel a punishment, FOR MURDER should be painted in large letters, and placed over the criminal. To prevent that savage mode of seeking satisfaction for some fancied offence, which would easily be ex plained, were the pretendedly honourable only some thing like rational be inn,, I would award the same ptinishment to the wretch, who coolly goes to add to the crime he may perhaps have already committed, by at tempting, and perhaps succeeding, in taking away the life of a human being, by what is falsely called, honour able satisfaction : and to render it impossible for any hut fools or madmen to be engaged in so vile a •prac tice, the law should make it a transportable offence against both the seconds, and also the surgeons. I hope to see the day when those who profess Christi anity, will blush to advocate the sanguinary laws of this country ; but unfortunately none are more cruel, none more vindictive, and none more persecuting than the teachers and pretended disciples of a religion which re quires of them to be mediators, instead of prosecutors, as I have, so much to my cost, always found them to be. JOHN DR&KARD, Late of Stamford, Lincolnshire. Ripley, Yorkshire, 6th June, 1839, t THE CHARTISTS. DEMONSTRATION AT GLASGOW. The great Glasgow demonstration in favour of Uni versal Suffrage, was held upon the Green on Monday, in accordance with the resolution of the National Con vention, to have simultaneous meetings in all the large cities in Scotland and England. From an early hour in the morning bands of music were perambulating the different quarters of the city, which bad the effect of bringing out large numbers. They continued to do so till the hour of meeting, when they entered the Green, followed by the several districts, to which they had been appointed. A great number of flags were upon the ground, amongst which were conspicuous two black ones—one of which was a death's-head-and-cross bones, with the motto, " Death shall be the tyrant's lot." On the other was a hand grasping an unsheathed dagger, with the motto, " Will you force us to this'" In fact, most of the mottoes were rather of a phy sical force description, much at variance with the quiet and orderly demeanour of the meeting. Mr. Moir, M. C., was called to the chair, and after some verses of the 94th Psalm bad been sung, began the business with a kw pointed remarks on the proof which the meeting afforded that the working classes were determined never—never to cease agita- tion, till their right to Universal Suffrage was triumph antly asserted. A number of resolutions were subse quently proposed and carried unanimously. The first pledged the meeting to continue their agitation till Universal Suffrtgc was the law of the land—the next to withdraw their money from the Saving's Banks, &c. when the Convention saw proper to give the order— the next to support Chartist candidates wherever there was an election for a Member of Parliament ; and there were others on the subject of exclusive dealing with the shopocracy and the cler,l. The speakers were--Mr. Collins, M.C., Mr. Frost, M.C., Mr. Bussey, M.C., Mr. B. O'Brien, M.C., Mr. Lowery, MX , Mr. Gil- lespie, Mr. Hamilton, from Stoneh - ouse, Mr. Rodger, Mr. C. 111 - Kay, Mr. M'Kerraster and Mr. Wright. The business went off in the best possible manner, con sidering the numbers present, which were variously es timated by those up , in the hustings from eighty to one hundred thousand.—Glasgow Chronicle. DEMONSTRATION AT DUMFRIES. It having been intimated, by means of placards plen tifully distributed throughout the town of Dumfries, that the Chartists intended to hold one of those meetings styled '° Great Chartist Demonstrations," on the Dock head, a number of the inhabitants of Dumfries and its neighbourhood, to a considerable amount, consisting of the working classes, females and children, with indivi duals drawn thither by motives of curiosity, assembled at that place on the evening of Thursday last, the 6th instant. A temporary hustings was erected on the spot for the occasion. Mr. Wardrop having been called to the chair, informed the meeting he had a piece of good news to tell them,and read an article from the Londurs Sun on the finality doctrine of Lord John Russoli announce d on Tuesdi;y list, from which Mr. W. argued that Lord John bad become the best Chartist in the kingdom. An Address to her Majesty, expressive of Chartist views and principles, wwi then proposed, and the queries drawn up by the Convention were submitted to' the meeting, both of which were carried by acclamation. A vote of confidence in the Convention, and thanks to Messrs. Duncan and Lowry, were then carried by acclamation. The Address to the Queen was resolved to be transmitted to Lord John Russell for presenta- tion. Three cheers having been given to Mr. %Vardrop for his conduct in the chair, the meeting dispersed, having been conducted throughout in an orderly manner.—Dumfrin; and Galloway Courier. THE SAVINGS BANKS AND THE CHARTISTS.—The run on the Savings' Banks would seem to have been much over-rated, and to have little exceeded what might have been looked for, in consequence of the par tial depression of some branches of industry. The total sum sold out by the Commissioners is only 19.0,039/. — while the total deposits amount to 9.3,000,000! ! As to the Chartists, they may bellow and threaten, but they are not the class who have money in the bank. It is a remarkable and instructive fact, that in no considerable town have these noisy demagogues been able to make any impression on the labouring inhabitants.--Tyne Mercury, EXPORTATION OF SHEEP AND PIGS TO RUSSlA.—Captain Munri e. of the Ricardo, took out a noisy cargo with him to Petersburg on Wednesday, con sisting of 500 or 600 sheep and pigs. He contracted for a quantity of water for the ship; the supply was to be at the rate of 400 gallons a day for an average voyage, and Mr. Munroe was not to sail befo r e the wind had set in fair. He bad shepherds and drovers with him to drive the stock six hundred miles beyond Moscow, so it was gkten out. In former times, an Order in Council was required, at the cost of several pounds, to send an old top and ewe to Prussia, as breeders. By the above exportation, things arc strangely altered " as to freedom of trade." The sagacity, of George 11 1., recorded in history somewhere, in getting ovtr the first few couples of Spanish sheep, thus led, by their wool, to the:establishment of the fine cloth manufactories in England. He accomplished his object by offering the lady of an Ambassador to his Court, as a bribe, two of the finest English bred horses she could fancy through all England. We believe this lady ran the risk of being made shorter by the head in conse quence. —Hull Observer. We congratulate the Liberals of Shropshire upon the victory they have achieved in rescuing their late no mination borough from Clive domination. The total overthrow of that family's influence, for the first time for upwards of a century, is as sure a sign of the growing independence of its inhabitants as it is symptomatic of what would be the general expression of the people's opi nion, could the inhabitants of all other places be as careless of the influence of Tory gold and Tory threats as are the independent electors of Ludlow. Let us have the Ballot, and the example of Ludlow will be followed in Dudley, in Tamworth, in Kidderminster. and in ninety-nine out of the hundred other places over which the Tories now exercise a control so vigilant and so dispiriting to the poor and honest bolder of the suffrage.--Stafford Examit;cr. A few brief but important points of Contrast and Com parison between the regulations imposed upon Li censed Victuallers and their Muses, and the new Beersellers: and: their Houses, by the respective Acts of Parliament, the 9th Geo. IV., cap. 61, and Ist Wm. IV., cap. 64, and 4th and sth Wm. IV., cap. 85. Exhibiting the very great discrepancy that ex sts be tween the Laws which govern the Two Trades, and the necessity, in every point of view, that the hitherto neglected recommendation of the Select Committee of the House of Commons, to assimilate and place them both upon the same footing, should be no longer unattended to. LICENSED VICTUALLERS. 1. OBTAINING THE LICENSE.—The applicant is required to give notice of his intention to apply for a License to ' open his house as a Victualling-house' to the Overseer and Constable, and exhibit a copy of the notice on the Church-door, and another on his own door. No certificate of any kind is demanded by law, and even character forms no essential part of the quali fication fur a new license. 2. SECURITY FOR GOOD BEHAVIOUR.—The Li censed Victualler is not required to give bond for good behaviour, nor find security fer the payment of penal ties incurred by transgressing the laws which regulate his trade. 3. PRICE OF BEER LICENSE:—By a return, printed by order of. the House of Commons, dated Feb. 22, 1839, it appears that out of 55,750 Licensed Vic tuallers, 39,926 paid but one guinea per annum for their Beer License ; of . the remaining 15,824, none p a id more than three gu ineas per annum. The total amount they paid (in 1837) was 91,7671. 18s. 4. HOURS FOR BUSINESS.—The hours during which the Licensed Victualler in,iy keep open his house, arc altogether unlimited ; nor is there any clause in the Act of Parliament prohibiting him from keeping his house open the whole of the night. should cire,umstences in duce him so to do, be it public-house or gin-palace. 5. Houtis ON SUNDAYS.—With the exception of the actual hours of Divine Si rvice, the hours of the public house are as unlimited on Sundays as on other days. Not even arc the gin palaces otherwise controlled than as above stated. FINES, PENALTIES, &c.—ln case of a conviction for a breach of the law, the tine inflicted upon the Licensed Victualler may, at the discretion of the Magistrates, be mitigated to a few shillings ; and very scriuus must be the offence charged if the line inflicted be so high as twenty shillings ; even thee, should he consider the con viction in error, the Licensed Victualler has the right to appeal to the Quarter Sessions. 7. TRatasFEr. OF LICENSE.—The publican's License is transferable ; the full value of the License for the whole duration of its period is thus secured to him and his fatally ; nor is there any limit to the number of times the license may be transferred in any year. S. FORFEITURE OF LICENSE.—The Licensed Vic tualler may transgress the terms and conditions of his License with impunity, so far as respects its forfeiture, for in no instance is its forfeiture insisted upon. 9. STANDARD MEASURES.—The Licensed Victualler is not compelled to use the legal standard measures, un less required so to do by his customers. LICENSED BEERSELLERS. 1. OBTAINING THE LICENSE.—The applicant (in rural and contrary districts) has to produce a certificate of character signed by six inhabitant rate-payers of the same parish : he is called upon to produce a fresh cer tificate every year, or he cannot renew his license : the difficulty of obtaining so many as six rate-payers to sign, in one parish, often acts as an insuperable bar to obtain ing a Retail beer-license. 2. BOND AND SECURITY.—The Beerseiler is called upon to give personal bond as well as additional secu rity for good behaviour and payment of penalties in curred by any breach of the laws. 3. PRICE OF BEER LICENSE.—The Beerseller's Beer License is charged 31. 3s. per annum—those oniy who are not licensed to allow Beer to be drunk on the premises, pay 11. Is.—thus, 40,102 Beersellers pay 31. 3s. per annum each for their License, while but 5,292 have the One-Guinea License.—The total amount they paid (in 1837) was 133,5421. 3s. 4. Hours or BuslNEss.—The hours of the beer. house are limited by the local Magistrates (in some districts to eight o'clock in the evening). Power to extend the hours till eleven o'clock is given by law, but that power is exercised but very rarely in any other than a restrictive manner. .5. SUNDAYS.—The beerbouse must not be opened on Sundays and Fast-days til the hour of one o'clock in the afternoon, nor between three and five o'clock.— The beerhouse must also close at ten o'clock at night, and as much earlier as the local Magistrates direct. 6. PENALTIES, &c.—However trivial the offence with which the beerseller is charged, the least amount of penalty inflicted is forty shillings and costs (often increased to .51.) Thus for merely serving a neighbour 14 ith his supper-beer but a few minutes after the pre scribed hour, he is liable to a penalty of 40s. or .5/. and costs, together with the expense of obtaining a new license,—and no appeal is allowed him. 7. THE LICENSE OF A BEERSELLER IS NOT TRANS FERABLE.—Even in case of death, it is not available cii her to his widow or family—who are thus put to ad ditional expense and trouble at a time when they are Ina capable of bearing the one or taking the other. 8. FORFEITURE OF LICENSE.—By a recent reading given by Magistrates to the laws which regulate Beer housee, they declare the License forfeitable upon every conviction. A double heavy penalty apt contemplated by the Legislature, is thus inflicted upon every offence. 9. STANDARD MEASURES.—The Beerseller is com pelled to use standard measurer, whether reqUired so to do or not. 10. BILLETING SOLDIERS.—In this respect, as well as in those prohitory laws which prevent public-houses from being opened in particular localities, or where the conditions of tho original lease prohibit them, the Li censed Victualler and the Licensed Beerseller are both called upon to render obedience : under these laws, and , under these only, are they placed upon an equality. The above comparison and contrast fully proves that the outcry raised against the Beersellers has its ft,unda tion only in interested sources, and not in the laxity of the laws ; as we have shown, they are far more coer cive against the Licensed Beerseller than against the Licensed Victualler—still no petition has emanated from Magistrates or other Public Functionaries, sug gesting or praying for any alteration in the Laws which govern the Public-lmuse or the Gir-palace. And yet the pretext assigned for further coercing the Beersder, is, the conservation of public morals Naher the Beerseiler, nor those who espouse his cause, ask for any ilvlusive advantage, or seek to shield him from any law which may be dei med essential to good order ; they simply pray that the Beerseller may be placed upon the same footing with respect to regulations as the Licensed Victualler, shat lie may thereby be entitled to carry out the intention rf the Legislature, by an ut!fcl lured competition. The very e xistenee of a. disti►.ction creates an invidiaus and degrading opinion of Boer houses, and operates in preventing many respectable persons embarking in a trade so fettered by vexatious ai,d partial restrictions, and so liable to experitwntal legislation, and restricts those already in it t rum making the best use of their capital and exertions. In the first three months of the present Session of Parliament (1839), while but 36,527 persons have complained to the House of Commons against the Bea r• seller and the Beer-laws, no less than '259,327 persons have in the same period of time registered their attesta tions in his favour, and prayed that the Old Publican and the New Beerselier may be governed by one and the same equal and impartial law. FAIR ROSAMONDI OR, THE DAYS OF HENRY ll.—This new historical romance promises to com pete in interest with those of the most distinguished writers of modern times. " The structure of the tale," observes the Atlas, "is elaborate. The character of Queen Eleanor perhaps, the most successful conception in the work. The ma.,crials from which it is derived are, of course, sus ceptible of considerable effect; all the po , nts are salient : she was emphatically the woman of her age, possessed of violent passions, unscrupulous desires, and a haughty and relentless temper. If Mr. Milier has taktn a dark view of her Majesty's errors, we do not think he has exaggerated them. The interest of the story is sustrined throughout very successfully, and Mr. Miller discovers comn.e. dakle zeal in surrounding it with historical accessories. la the cb.s:rption of the scenery he has, for the most part, drawn from actual observation, and the pictures be gives us of ancient palaces and castles, and Royal assemblies, aro vivid, and full of a p o et.painter'senthusiasm.
