STOVE ON PRINCIPLES ENTIRELY NEW, AND U NEQUALLED FOR COMFORT AND ECONOMY. By her Majesty's Royal Letters Patent. THE CHUNK PATENT STOVE, invented by Mr. R. PROSSER, Civil Engineer, is distin guished from all others by its entire freedom from dust or smoke, its great economy of fuel, and its perfect safety from fire. It has been a source of great comfort in the nursery and oed-room of he invalid, affording an uniform temperature through the day and night, with only one supply, while the most delicate test cannot detect anything arising from its use which is injurious to health—it merely warms the air without decomposing it ; and, as there is no door, none of the gases generated by combustion can pass into the apartment. Wherever warmth is required, this Stove is applicable. It is as desirable for the drawing-room as the laundry ; for warming greenhouses it possesses extraordinary claims, the very great expense of building flues, and afterwards the immense con sumption of fuel, being avoided. For workshops and ships' cabins it is invaluable ; it requires atteation only once in twenty-four hours, during which time the cost will not exceed twopence. Price, Plain, 31. ; Fluted, 3/. 10s.

FRAZER B. SMITH, Secretary. PERSECUTION IN JAMAICA. The attention of the Friends of Religion, Justice, and Freedom, is earnestly solicited to certain iniquitous proceed ings which have recently taken place in Jamaica, which if not promptly and vigourously met, threaten, not only the ruin of those against whom they have been directed, but the destruc tion of that liberty which has been purchased for the Negro, at so costly a sacrifice. At the Assizes for the County of Cornwall, held at Montego Bay, in July last, various actions were brought, under different pretexts, against several well known friends of the labouring classes in that Island. Amongst the victims of these proceed ings, were a Clergyman of the'ClinrefraftEngland, - a Missionary belonging to the Baptist Society, and some of the Magistrates, specially appointed for the protection of the emancipated popu lation, in each of which cases, the jurors have decided against the party accused, and in most of them, with enormous da mages, under circumstances which can leave no doubt that the design is to ruin those whose hatred of oppression, has ren dered them obnoxious to the enemies of freedom. At the same Assizes, a criminal information filed by order of the Court against the Editor of a Local Newspaper, for grossly defaming a Baptist Minister, was tried, and the jury,•without the formality of retiring to consider their verdict, immediately acquitted the defendant, contrary to the express direction of the Chief Justice, and the plaintiff was left with his injuries un-, redressed, and a heavy amount of legal expenses to pay. These violent and reckless proceedings appear to have pro duced a greater excitement than has been known in the Island, since the insurrection in 1832. The Negroes behave with admirable moderation, but they feel most deeply at the prospect of their best friends and pro tectors, of whom it was once sought to deprive them by brute force, now falling victims to the more specious, but not less ef fectual weapons of oppression in the form of legal proceedings. The Juries, on these occasions, were almost wholly com posed of persons belonging to a class, who have uniformly and bitterly opposed the abolition of Slavery, and the friends of the Anti-slavery cause, and there is no hope whatever of obtaining justice for the parties against whom these verdicts have been given but by an appeal to the Court of Error in the Island, and if requisite, to the ultimate tribunal in this country, which will involve heavy legal expenses, in addition to those already incurred. To meet these Expenses, an earnest appeal is now made to the liberality of the British public. The following Gentlemen have been appointed a Committee, with power to add to their number, to lay the particulars of these atrocious proceedings fully before the Public, to promote Subscriptions for the purposes contemplated, and similar cases of oppression, and to superintend the appropriation of the funds collected.

These PILLS have now been before the Public for more than FORTY YEARS, and, so unexceptionably useful have they proved, both to individuals and families, that they have obtained a reputation and patronage which no medicine of a similar kind can pretend to. They are prepared without a particle of mercury or ether mineral. Their qualities are not at all injured by time, or change of climate. In taking these pills, no con finement or alteration of diet (avoiding intemperance) is re quired. They seldom operate till eight or ten hours after taken, and then gently. They relieve the Liver and Bowels, give tone to the Stomach, strengthen the digestive organs, and invigorate the functions of the whole body, and thus be come to both sexes (for they are quite adapted to each) an invaluable means of averting disease and restoring health. oeir beanreefiicniatlheeffheacbtist, 0 11 f I t e a s k s i r t s ig . t l l l ie u m nt . refer confidently to For thoseth A Single Box will satisfy any person of their pre-eminent value,tieaarasenaddap and soldrofledc v y bh s y. a iNi f e e l:r a a,i n so d s n e t Hunt, 65, ,ail bp Great r ra i e e ia r e i ts t su l .l e t d ie3 i n c aeyc i r ne i a .

" You may be assured that, deeply sensible of the duties imposed upon me, and more especially of that which binds me to the support of the Established Church, I shall always use the powers vested in me by the Constitution for the fulfilment of that sacred obligation."—H er Majesty's Answer to the Address of the Lords—The Weekly Dispatch, Sunday, July 14, 1839. " The favour and the love of Heaven, we have great argu ment to think in a peculiar manner propitious and propending towards us. Why else was this nation chosen before any other, that out of her, as out of Sion, should be proclaimed and sounded forth the first tidings and trumpet of reformation to all Europe."—Areopagitica : Milton. We shall here exhibit to the country, that for the great " measure of truth which we enjoy," we are indebted to Mo narchs—rightly so—they were "the people's trust." " All the King's—(Henry the Eighth's)—proceedings con vincing the Pope that he was to expect no change in him, he published at length the Bull of Excommunication, drawn, and signed in 1535. As soon as Henry heard of the Bull being published, he required the Bishops and Abbots to swear again to renounce the Papal authority. At the same time, the new translation of the Bible being presented to him, he ordered 1,500 copies to be printed, being satisfied that nothing would be found there to support the exhorbitant power assumed by the Pope over all Christendom."

For there be yet in the Gospel very many dark places, which without doubt to posterity shall be made much more open.

" Queen Elizabeth dying March 24, 1602, was succeeded by James the Sixth, King of Scotland, as next heir to the Crown and of the Queen's nomination. Accordingly no sooner was the new King come up to London to take possession of the Crown, but an humble petition of the Ministers of the Church of England, as they styled themselves, was presented to his Majesty, desiring reformation of certain ceremonies and abuses of the Church. In the preamble to the petition, they told his Majesty ' that they, to the number of more t h an 1 , 000 o f hi s Majesty's subjects and ministers, all g roan i ng as un d er a com mon burden of rites and ceremonies, did w ith j o i n t consent humble themselves at his Majesty's feet to be eased and relieved in this behalf, and that their humble suit to his Majesty was, that , some might b e re moved, some a These offence s were , l e t, in the amended, m ofie d, the a n dson some offences qu foil : d in . g, Church Servitor ; 2d, Church Ministers ; 3d, Church Liv rigs and Maintenance; 4th, Church Discipline; in all which they complained of many abuses and corruptions. " The King who was resolved to follow the example of other Christian Princes, who, in the commencement of their reigns, usually took the first course for the establishing of the Church, both for doctrine and polity, issued out his proclamations, whereby he appointed several Bishops and Deans, together with the Principals of those who had presented th;s petition to the King, to attend on him at his palace at Hampton-court, on January 12, IGO3, there to confer with his Majesty about these abuses and corruptions of which he had received such complaints." " On the second day of this conference, Dr. Reynolds, who was the foreman and speaker of the Puritans, moved his Majesty that there might be a new translation of the Bible, because, as he said, those which were allowed in the reigns of Henry VIII. and Edward VI., were corrupt, and not unswcrable to the truth of the original."—Page 310. " Messieurs de Beausobre and L'lofant, Ministers of the French Church at Berlin, represented to the late King of Prussia, that the French translations of the Bible began to be neither so intelligible nor agreeable to be read as they . were at first, and that therefore to be edified by them required that they should be revised, or a new translation made. On which that Prince pitched on them for this purpose, and by his Royal Decree appointed them to make a new translation."—P. 372.

" If he who spake as never man spake, who came to bless all nations with divine wi s d om, was b y the nemies of his Gospel, the Pharisaical critics of the time, charged with being beside himself—of having a devil, &c., because he told them that they tanglit for doctrines the commandments of men, i. e. the false interpretations of the sacred original, and on that account was persecuted by the bigots of that day,—one humble as myself may expect to be abused by men of this description." • • • " But my motives and my principles are, I presume to hope, worthy the protection of my Country, and its established Church; and, under the guidance of Heaven, I look to both.

"It was said by the Noble Duke ellington) that these opinions were contrary to the opinions field by the University •f Oxford. He (Viscount Melbourne) had great respect for that University but he could not adn - it that the University of Oxford was to be infallible in these matters. On the contrary, it was well known that the opinions of the Reformers who brought about the Reformation in the Church were entirely °llllosed to the University of 0: lard. It was well known, that if the opinions of that Unive wits had been adhered to, the Protestant religion would refer have been established. The opinions of Locke were opposed to those of the University; and if their opinions only were to be consulted, everything liberal, noble, and ingenuous in our institutions would never have been established."—Viscount Melbourne's Speech in the House of Lords, on the debate on the En r 1 of Radnor's motion respecting the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge.—The Morning Herald, Friday, Dec. 22, 1837. "We observe in a pamphlet, Anti-Deist,' published by Mr. B e ll amy, that Exodus, . iii, v. 22, is a gross mistransla tion. He notices a number of other errors in the translation of the Bible now in use, equally hostile to the true meaning of the writers. It is not a little curious, that many of these mis translated passages, which give meanings in direct opposition to the real ones, have been as stoutly defended by eminent theo logians as any in the whole look, and long commentaries have been written upon them, expressly to show their beauty and propriety."—The Examiner, Dec. 24, 1821. " Mr. Bellamy, in a very conclusive performance, the Anti- Deist, does not attempt to parry the weapon, so much as to disarm the hand that wields it ; for he does not explain away the objections that have been advanced by the Deist, but he labours rather to extirpate them, and to show that they have no other root but misconception or mistake. Should this author's emendations turn out correct, they should be adopted, as no time and no authority can consecrate error. Mr. Bellamy has met with patronage in the very highest quarter— a patronage liberal in every sense of the word ; and as honourable to the patron as the author." " His alterations, I admit, are extremely numerous, im portant, and consequential, but they are supported by a mass of erudition, authority, and argument, that does indeed demand our most serious attention, and many in common with myself, will lament that they have drank more freely at the stream, than at the fountain." " We hail the march of intellect, because we know—that a reason that is cultivated, is the best support of a worship that is pure.

This property has for upwards of two centuries stood high in the estimation of the public. The hotel and tavern are in every respect complete, displaying considerable architectural taste. The internal arrangements are judicious and fitted in the most approved style, containing one of the largest and most tastefully decorated concert, assembly, or dining rooms in the metropolis, affording ample accommodation for a dinner party of upwards of 500 persons ; with a gallery capable of containing 200 persons; and numerous other tavern rooms of various sizes. The bed rooms are large, airy, and well arranged. A commodious and well ventilated billiard room (the pressing demand of the numerous visitors would fully warrant an increase of double the accom modation for this highly interesting amusement). The immense extent of the Grounds, beautifully wooded with majestic trees, interspersed with Temples, Grottoes, Statues, tic. afford to the visitor the most delightful variety ; it will give but a feeble idea of them when it is stated that upwards of 4,000 persons have dined with comfort in them, and besides which full accommodation was found for nearly as many other ♦isitors. The elegantly constructed Theatre affords ample scope for Theatrical Exhibition; the Orchestra is extensive and judi ciously arranged, giving admirable effect to Vied or Instru mental Performances. The Retail Wine and Spirit Department adjoins the Tavern ; is one of the most flourishing and profitable concerns of the kind, and notwithstanding its present trade is vast, yet the in crease of buildings and population in the immediate vicinity gives assurance not only of maintaining the present trade, but also of materially increasing it.

The learned Selden, Le Clerc, and other great authorities on tithes, say--" It is not likely that the Levites should have had a tenth of the whole produce of the land, because the number of the tribe of Levi, compared with the numbers of the other tribes, was so trifling. Neither could it be of all the produce of the land, but of the increase of the seed; as it is truly said in the common version : for the increase must necessarily have been that part of the produce after the seed employed to give the increase, had been returned to the grower out of the gross produce ; otherwise it could not have been said it was the " in crease of the seed." " When the harvest had beene ended, and all gathered, then the husbandman laid aside his great themma, otherwise called the first fruits of his threshing floore, of which it bath beene spoken .in chapter on first fruits; which, though it were one of ten, in respect of that portion which the Levites received, yet it was but one of a hundred in respect of the husbandman's tocke, wh o paye d t h e Levites; the Levites payed a tenth por tion unto the Priests ; this they termed Magnasher mim-ham magnasher, th e tithe of the tithes, Neh. x. 33.

" The King, Henry the Fourth, representing to the Parlia ment his great want of an extraordinary aid, the Commons went in a body and addressed him, That without burdening his people he might supply his occasions by seizing the revenues of the clergy.'

The Directors of the Bank of England have lately adopted an extraordinary resolution, which has caused the utmost alarm at Liverpool, and indeed through out the whole of Lancashire and the manufacturing districts. They have resolved, in the management of their discount business, both in London and at their branches, to reject all bills bearing the signature of a Bank of Issue, whether private or joint stock. Bills drawn and accepted by merchants and traders, with a do zen eudorsements, have been rejected merely because one of those endorsements happened to be that of a country banker, issuing his own notes, or of a joint stock bank of issue ; also the drafts of country bankers on their London bankers or agents, and ac cepted by them, have been rejected. In Lancashire all sales are made with the condition for payment in cash or bankers' bills—meaning bills drawn or accepted or endorsed by bankers ; now this resolution declares all such bills to be tainted or objectionable, consequently the merchants fear that it will have the effect of sus pending all transactions and of embarrassing their dealings. A d eputat i on f rom the Liverpool banks waited upon the Governor of the Bank of England, on Friday week, to point out the injustice and impolicy of the measure, when he promised to lay their state ments before the general Court of Directors, giving them reason to hope that the grievance would be reme died. On Thursday last the Court deliberated on the subject, and after a lengthened discussion, they in formed the deputation that the obnoxious resolution could not be rescinded. The deputation returned immediately to Liverpool, and on Friday private meet ings were called, to consider what further steps should be taken ; which will probably end in a resolution to call general meetings of the mercantile and banking interests there, and to present a strong memorial to the Govern ment, praying for its intercession. We look upon this act of the Bank of England as both injudicious and ill timed ; but we do not see so much cause for alarm as those on the spot express ; because an act of -tyranny of this nature will certainly excite the indignation of all classes of traders throughout the country, who will probably find means to make themselves quite independent of the Bank. It may even be the means of resorting more generally to the use of country bank-notes, to the exclusion of those of the Bank of England, which have hitherto formed the bulk of the circulation in Lancashire.—Globe.

IMPORTANT PROCEEDINGS AGAINST OVERSEERS UNDER THE NEW POOR LAW.---The overseers of Mitcham parish attended before the Bench to show cause why a dist ress warrant s h ould not issue against their goods and chattels on account of their non-cotn plianee with an order of the Board of Guardians of tile Croydon Union, calling upon them to pay over the sum of 1921. to the Treasurer of the Union. Mr. James Andrews, the clerk to the Board of Guardians, deposed, that the Board had issued an order to the overseer of Mit c h am for the payment of 1921., to be applied to the maintenance of the poor, and that the order had not been complied with. The BENCH asked the overseers why the money had, not been paid The Overseers replied that they could net get the money. There was only a sum of about 901. remaining upon the last rate, 55/. of which were now in the hands of the collector, and the remainder wouldery soon be collected. They had a fresh rate ready for the Magis trates to sign, and this would enable them to get up the full sum required by the guard ians . The CHAIRMAN said that he would never consent to sign a fresh rate until the old one was all collected. It was roost unfair that some of the ratepayers s h ou ld b e called upon to pay two rates while others had not paid one. Mr. LORAINE, the Chairman of the Board of Guar dians, said it was high time that something should be done to compel overseers to collect their rates pro perly, and he feared it would never be accomplished until the Bench came to the resolution of issuing dis tress warrants against them. The consequence of the neglect was that he had to sit at the Board of Guar dians with an exhausted treasury, and when the bills were sent in they had no funds to meet them. The present rate had been made several months, and vet he found, upon inspecting the rate-book, that the amount uncollected consisted of the rates of some of the prin cipal rate-payers, who ought to have been the first that were applied to for their rates. The Overseers said that these parties had promised and would, no doubt, pay in the course of a tew days. They also said that they had had to provide a large sum for the highway and county rate, and this was another reason why they had not been able to provide the money for the Board of Guardians. The CHAIRMAN said this was no excuse. They were bound to furnish the money for the support of the poor, and if the amount was not paid in the course of the day, he was quite prepared to sign a distress Warrant. The Overseers said it was quite out of their power to make up the amount so soon. They were ready to hand over sixty pounds, and if the now rate was signed, they would put it in collection, and pay the rest of the money in the course of a week. The BENCH said they would not consent to this arrangement, and the money must be paid directly. The Overseers were then formally asked whether they were prepared to comply with the order of the Board of Guardians? Upon their replying in the negative, Mr. Penfold, the clerk to the Magistrates, was directed to draw up a distress warrant. The Overseers said they hoped the Bench would sign the now rate. This the Bench would not consent to do ; but it was ultimately arranged that the distress-warrant should be allowed to stand over for a day or two, to enable the) overseers to make up the money, upon the understand. ing that if it was not done the warrant would be put in force. PARIS POLICE. Madame Gallimard appeared before the Court with an air which she had studied the whole of the previous evening. " I love justice," she cried, " and I love the judges too," as she made her seventeenth curtsey. " I demand justice against Madame Tessin, that most opprobious of insects." - President—Are you married ? Madame—Am I not ? Ask my husband there. President—ln that case, Madame, you cannot apply to me without the authority of your husband. Madame—l am not in the habit of consulting my husband, honest man ! President—We can do nothing for you uuless your application is authorised by him. Madame—Oh, if you are so absolute, he must com ply. Come here, my child—Gallimard—Gallimard, where the devil are you ? Monsieur—Here, here (in a squeaking tone). Madame—Speak up—louder. Do you give nie your authority ? (Aside)—Strange times these are when wives ask the authority of their husbands. The world is coming to an end. Monsieur —For what, my dear ? Madame—What is that to you, you fool ? Monsieur —Oh, dear. Madame—Be quick. Come, be a good child. Monsieur—All very fine ; but I w ill h ave nothing to do with the l aw . lam master, I hope, abroad, as lam at home. Madame—Oh the gredin ! Monsieur—l will not be put to costs. Law iQ a luxury too dear fur me. I want to know front the Court what this affair will cost me ? President—lf the defendant be discharged, you will have to pay her expenses. Monsieur—l will pay nothing at all ; these women's quarrels are not worth a sou. - Madame—What's the matter ...to-day, my dear ? How proud you are. You will pay nothing to oblige your dear, loving, little wife. Come, my child. The gredin ! Monsieur—l am master abroad as at home.— that's all. Madame—Yes, my love. Wa;t till I catch you at hoine—gredin! Monsieur—What do you say, my dear? Madame—You know, my love, that this creature has tormented me. Monsieur—l am in a dilemma. OfEcer—ln any case you must pay the cost of the summons. Monsieur —Oh, in for a penny, in for a pound. Go a-head, my dear. Authority—authorise—authority. Madame (shaking her head at him)—You have done well, I promise you. Now, I must have justice of this creature. It is a case of a most aggravated nature. President—Let me understand you. What is the ease ? Madame—She tore my bonnet ; she pulled my hair ; she -- President—Who : 0 Madame—Madame Tessin. Madame Tassin—l scorn your insinuations. Madame—Yes, Sir, and she threw scuff in my eyes. Monsieur—l will prove the snuff; it set the whole house a sneezing.—(Sneezes.) Madame Tas•in—l demand a proof. Monsieur—(Sneezes)—There. President—Turn them all out. Madame—l appeal. Monsieur—So do I. The snuff—(sneezes). A public dinner will be given to-morrow to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, at Portsmouth, in coic' bration of his recent re-election. The Parisian: prints are daily filled with ac counts of attempted assasinations. In addition to the attack upon the Abbe Renaud at Notre Dame last Sue day, when he was stabbed from revengeful motives by a woman named Leroux, two young women, sisters, who kept a linen-draper's shop in the very heart of Paris, the Rue 29 JuiHet, were stabbed by a ruffian, who attempted to rob them. One is not expcotcd to sur vive. These two events have excited the deepest in terest in the French capital. The Hotel of the Count de Montesquieu has been broken open, and jewels, money, &c. of the value of 25,000 f. stolen. The Ga zette des Tribuneaux announces that from the in creasing number of criminal trials it has been found necessary to instal two sections of assizes for the depart- . ment of the Seine. The cry for an effective police force is universal in Paris, for the actual authorities, muni cipal and gendarmerie, have quite enough to do to pull down seditious placards and to look after eineute-mongers. AFFAIR OF HONOUR.—A circumstance Oc curred here at the time of the cattle show, which has been productive of some talk as well as merriment. A landed proprietor in Ross-shire , conceiving t h at nig law agent in Edinburgh, a well known writer to the ' siffnet: who is also proprietor of an estate in th e f ar north had acted offensively, if not unfairly towards him, with respect to certain title deeds and professional charges, sent a military gentleman to the lawyer, on the occasion of his being in Inverness, attendi ng t h e cattle show. An a r mple apology was dem an d e d , or the usual satisfaction. The other replied that he had no friend here whom be could ask to act for him in - such a matter. Some time was allowed, but no friend or apology was forthcoming ; and the gentleman fol lowed his quondam agent into the lobby of the Cale donian Hotel, and, in the presence of a number of persons, addressed him in a style of language and with certain epith e t s , w hi ch we do not choose to repeat. Theinsulted party bore the onset with exemplary pa tience, but left Inverness for Edinburgh early next morning. We shall probably next hear of the occur rence in the shape of a law suit.—lnverness Courier. DISAPPEARANCE OF Two YOUNG GBN TLLMLN.—The family of the Rev. Mr. Machell, of Etton, near Beverley, has been thrown into the deepest distress by the sudden disappearance of two of the Rev. Gentleman's sons, aged about nine and twelve years. They went out, as usual„ on the morning ,of Friday week, to take recreation in the neighbourhood of the house, but not returning, search was made for them that night, but without effect. In the morning the search was renewed through the country 60 miles round, pursuit being particularly directed towards a company of gypsies, who had left Etton about the same time es the youn• Machells were missed, but- without effect. On Sabbath day Mr. Machelf was in totso . lable, and unable to discharge .his ministerial We have not yet heard of the return of the young • gentlemen.—Hull Packet.
