S ELDOM have the Benevolent Feelings of a generous Public been more powerfully appealed to than by the following Most MELANCHOLY cißcumsTANcEs : HENRY ENGLISH was the occupier of a Farm of about •Five Hundred Acres in the Parish of MAecu, which tlsrough his persevering Industry, enabled him for many Years to sup port a numerous Family in comfort and respectability.— Weighed down at length by the still increasing number °ibis children, and the difficulties of the times, he sunk under his complicated burdens,—his Property was distrained, and he be came at once reduced to a state of abject Poverty. The pros' pect of future years of misery, for himself—a Wife near her confinement—and Ten out of Fourteen Children, entirely de pendent on his personal exertions, so preyed upon his mind that after lingering for a short time in the greatest despair— on the 4th inst. he died : by which event his widow (then in a delicate state of health, and who has since beets confined) and ELEVEN CHILDREN (the eldest of whom is only Si , - teen Years of age,) are left totally destitute of the means of Subsistence. Under these circumstances of aggravated dis tress the Charitable Assistance of the Public is most ear nestly solicited in their behalf. The Reverend Algernon Peyton, M. A. Rector of Doddington, Thomas Orton and Hardy Johnson, Esquires, and the Reverend John Graham, M. A. Curate of March, bare offered to act as Trustees for the proper. application of such Sums as may be contributed, by 'whom any Donations will be thankfully received.

FOR THE SA. CRIMINAL PUNISHMENTS. Ma. Ecorroa,—That BRITISH JURISPRUDENCE, Criminal and Social, is both in THEolty and PRACTICE the perfection of wisdom and of sound sense, I feel convinced that no man will deny, if he permits himself to consider it coolly and 'impar tially. I mean not by this to assert that it is at this present moment free from imperfections. It is the nature of man, singly and socially, to change ; of course, perfection itself, if we could possess it, must change also to continue ; and the great perfection of our jurisprudence is that it admits of change whenever applicable to social variations. I will not deny then, though, I do not go the utmost length of existing popular ex prossion, that improvements may be made in our Criminal Code ; perfectly consonant with the grand principle of MERCY . , whilst,, at the .sanie time, giving greater security to private prlperty and to public happiness. I will not even deny the propriety of the reduction of Capital Punish ments, as now called for ; but I must urge that the mere reduction of punishments, beginning at the upper end of the scale, is not .so likely to diminish the number of candidates for punishment, or the sum total of crime, as a system that will' commence at the iower end, an d which by checking crime at the very outset, will prevent thousands and tens of thousands from ever rising half Way up that scale, of punishment, to whose very- summit they must, and do, otherwise speedily reach. In short, the existing EVIL arises from . the uncer tainty of conviction and of punishment 'in any degree of offence, and the almost certainty of impunity for minor charges, on the score 'of a first offence, of youth, &c. &c. The REMeDY I would offer consists in a certainty of conviction and con sequent punishment in the very first stages of crime : not however to shut the door to MERCY but 'to act mergfally by stopping the thoughtless offender, even in his first error. Let the punish ments be reduced as low as mercy would dictate, or good sense allow ; BUT LET THEM BE CERTAIN ! If by certain, though even inadequate, punish ment to twelve minor culprits; we should only be happy enough to check ONE in his career to greater crime, the wishes of mercy and the claims of justice .will be alike well satisfied.—l am aware that this may be unpalateable to many, nay, I doubt not that I may be accused of cru elty, and called a second DRACO : but I speak from long experience, though totally unconnected with the administration 'of the laws. I believe that every- man acquainted with,naval and mili tary discipline, that every man, who.has known a well regulated ship or regiment, wilt Agree with me both in theory and practice.-- Tiiprohce re form, or I would say amelioration on this principle, a clear view of the whole subject ought to be taken : for which I have to propose a very simple plan. Let us,for present investigation,consider the gradations of punishment, from the lowest up to DEATH, to be FIFTY id number. Then draw up a tabular plan offtfty-one columns : leave the first blank, and head the others in gradation. Then under each head of punishment place the misdemeanour, offence, or crime, together with the number of charges, convictions, and punishments for each, in the metropolis, and in the counties of Middle sex and Surrey, for the past year. Begin with the first column of offences. If any of these ap pear not to deserve the very lowest existing gra dation of punishment, remove them to the blank column for future consideration. If any of them, either from the nature,of the offence itself, or frorry the existing state of society, or of crime, appear to require a greater punishment, then re move them to the next column above for future investigation.; and so on, column by column, up to the highest.—Here, then, we shall have a fair systematic view of the case, and may not only remedy each individual error in the administra .tion of Criminal Law, upon its own specific me rits, but may even, if-necessary, reduce the'whole upon a general average, with nearly as much ease as if it were a question of pounds, shillings, and pence !—There will be also another import ant advantage attendant upon this system. It will not be denied that many offences change in their nature, through the lapse of time, some times even in a moral point of view, at others from social changes. Some offences also even spring from the laws themselves, or from social manners! Then a question will arise : may not these offences be obliterated from the calendar of human crime by other means than mere legal punishment ?—Under this head, it is not impos sible that improvements may take place in the REVENUE, EXCISE, aII(I_GAME LAWS,'Willell will actually diminish the sum total of crime, and at the same time give greater security to the PUBLIC INCOME, and even to the preservation of game.—Without a compliment to Govern ment, I am convinced that in the first of these it would gladly and cheerfully co-operate ; be cause I have reason to know that it is the princi. ple upon which it is now acting, notwithstand ing all the clamour, and all the charges, arid all the . petitions of OPPOSITION , . For the second, it must undoubtedly be in consonance both with the interests and the wishes of the LANDED GEN TRY j by the greatest part of whom the GAME LAWS are considered as an evil, though one that is absolutely necessary.--An arrangement"formed on this system ought then to be acted on with precision and with determination ; yet still tem pered with the same mercy as at present; though that mercy might appear in a different. dress. One case in illustration must suffice : a Baker, after poisoning his neighbours for half' a dozen years, is brought before a Magistrate, and con victed of his first offence, for, which the law orders a penalty of five shillings per ounce, with 1 PV:k: I - e a magisterial power of mitigation : but I should .thus far propose to change the system. Let the Law order a fine, imperative upon conviction, of one shilling, or sixpence, or one penny per ounce, with Magisterial power to increase the tine to FIVE SHILLINGS !-Now, what I contend for is, that the contemplation of a punishment with a hope of impunity, or of MITIGATION,Is a very different thing from the contemplation of punish ment with a certainty of its being inflicted, even though in a small degree; and with a fear of its AGGRAVATION ; though in each case 7 the precise quantum of punishment contemplated by the- law shall be precisely the same.Hln hopes that some individual better qualified for the task will re sume this subject ). I remain yours, IGNOTUS. Paw% TH LONDON GAZETTE, MAY 22. Cointhissions signed by die Lora Lieutenant of the County of Southamption, and also of the Town of Southampton and County thereof.

PRICE SI;VE/ir'PENC FOR THE SUN. ROMAN CATHOLICS.---(LETTER Ma. Envort—The See of Rome is 'the Grand Schismatical Power in the Church of Christ.— All Christians, though differing in many points of practice and opinion, 'might generally agree as brethren hut for the intolerance of that power. Assuming that its own interpretation of the gos pel is the_only true one, which it has . no moi.e right' to . do than the Eastern Church, or any other Christian Church on earth, it cuts itself off from their communion, by denouncing them as rebels to its usurped authority ; and follows up its separation by thundering out anathemas against all those.who, by its own acts, are driven from it. It is true that the Patriarchs 'of Constantinople fong contended with the Bishops of Rome for supremacy over the whole Church, and the title of Universal Bishop, which the latter successfully assumed when 'the power of the Greek Empire declined ; but even the Roman Bishops could .clearly see the impiety of it, when claimed against themselves.,ThuS, in the sixth century, Gregory the First, .sifrnamed the Great, could inveigh against the iniquity of the pretension, when set up by his rival, John of Constantinople. He de clared, that his 'pride, in affecting it, demonstrat;• ed the approach of Antichrist; and so indeed it did, but not in that quarter. Ile could beseech the. Empress, to whom he wrote, to conjure her by Almighty God not to give the least cimsent to this perverse title. He could ask, in writing to an Emperor, " who is this, who, contrary to the gospel and the decrees of the Canons, presumeth to take upon him this foolish and .proud name Ile could assert, and then certainly with truth, that" none of the Roman Bishops ever assumed, or consented to use, though offered to them, this name of_ singularity,"—(See Tracts against Pe pery, Vol. 111. Tit. x. 13. 46.) Yet when, in after times, the Successors of this Bishop had assumed thevery same title, and by. the .decree of Gregory the Seventh bad ap propriated to themselves alone the once general name of Papa or Pope, it became at once a mor tal sin to dispute their claim and refuse obedience to them. Now, what is the nature of that obe dience, so haughtily demanded by a large part of the Western Church, so foolish and fatally ad mitted ? It is no less than an absolute submission in all matters of faith, doctrine, and discipline ;. a renunciation of all common sense In the inter. preting of Scripture, or in' any other point. where- . in that sovereign authority may be pleased to interpose. This clearly was a yoke, which neither Christ nor his Apostles ever meant to impose upon mankind. St. Paul could say, " though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than ye have received, let him be accursed ;" and this he twice repeats with emphasis. Yet certainly it never had been preached or received in that day that all men should submit their common sense to one. But with this error and deceit, as far as reli gion only is concerned, we have nothing, in the present argument, to do. We have only to in quire, before we entrust power to the hands of those who do admit it, what may, and in many_ cases must be i,ts operation in civil matters: We will not now recur to those abuses of this spiritual authority, by which men swere, in former times,- compelled to give up their allegiance to their laWful Sovereign : though, in truth,' we have no security against the repetition of such Practices - no pledge but the present weakness of the Roman See. But let us. consider, not probabilities or possibilities, but absolute cer tainties, with respect to the operation or Roman Catholic power within a Protestant State. . -- In matters pur e ly t em p ora l, perhaps, no evil consequences might arise. But in all those, and they are no small number, in which civil business has any bearing, more or less remote, upon reli gious feelings, interests, or designs, all the power that Papists. can by any means acquire must be exerted against the Protestant Government.--- Particularly any plan of utility to the Church of England or resistance to the machinations of that of Rome, must meet with the most decided and determined hostility. Now the Church of England has finite enough of ad versaries already An, the . legislature. As, for example, all the_ Dissenters, her ancient an-. 1 accustomed opponents ; all the Sectarists, who are 'planning new divisions...in her bosom ; a ll th e _Liberals, to whom her very self-defence is bigot ry ; the Soeinians, who hate her orthodoxy ; and a .few perhaps, but I hope not more than a few, Who hate the very name of Religion. If to these enemies you add the steady,, persevering, artful, underwining, systematic, and inveterate, hostility of the Rornish Church, what can we have to hope for the continuance of that establishment, which for more than two centuries has made us happy..? which has brought down providential . blessings on us, to an amount which, as it was never seen before, could never have .been expected but which, if once our .Protestant establishment should fall, will vanish, Like the bascics's fabric of a vision. - Y Clll3, C*1 4 116 I CDS* DVAill BY FuinTING: 7 --Another death oc curred on board .a lighter in the river on Mon day.
