B RITISH AND FOREIGN SCHOOL SOCIETY. THE THIRTY-FOURTH GENERAL MEETING of the above SOCIETY will be held in Exeter Hall, on MONDAY, May 6, 1839. The Right Hon. LORD MORPETH, M.P. and V.P., in BRADFIELD said that the efforts of the combina tion had raised the price of Newcastle coals to 365.6 J., but the abundant introduction of the inland coals would completely paralyse their efforts. He had had opportunities of knowing the inconveniences to which the poorer classes were put in consequence of the high price, and he also knew that if it had not been for his Lordship's perseverance in attacking the combination, those classes would have suffered incomparably greater distress. the Chair. Tickets of admission may be obtained of William Allen, Esq., Treasurer, Plough-court; Lombard-street ; Messrs. Harvey and Dillon, Gracechurch-street ; Messrs. Hatchard and Son, Piccadilly; Messrs. Nisbet and Co., Berners-street ; Mr. S. Bagster, Paternoster-row ; Mr. Davies, Sunday School Union Depot, Paternoster-row ; and at the Central Schools, Borough-road. The doors will be opened at Eleven o'Clock, and the Chair .aken at Twelve precisely. The LORD MAYOR—A most extensive supply from Yorkshire may be depended upon, and Leicestershire and other counties, in which the coals are most excel lent, will also send in large quantities, and they will be brought to any person's house, as I said before, at 20s. 6d. per ton. Let the' coal-owners of the North enjoy their own regulations to the fullest extent. I know that great numbers of the Nobility and Gentry are determined to burn no more of the high-priced article, which has, because of the mere fact that the charge for it is exorbitant, obtained a character to which the coals of other counties are as well entitled. Mr. BRADFIELD then called his Lordship'sattention to the subject matter of the petition, and represented the necessity which existed for conceding the prayer of it. A very spirited effort had, he said, been made by Lord Granville Somerset to obtain the repeal of the clauses in the Railroad Bill last Session, which provided that coals should not be brought within a certain number of miles of London by such a mode of conveyance, but those interested in the trade, and he was sorry to say the Corporation of London assisted them, rendered that effort abortive. He trusted, however, that Mr. Leader would, after the just indignation that had been raised throughout the country at the conduct of the great coalowners, make such an impression on the House as would lead to a different result. Alderman THOMPSON who just entered the justice room as the Lord Mayor was looking over the peti tion, said that it was quite impossible that any Mem ber who had any idea of justice and was acquainted with the subject, could think of proposing the repeal of the clauses alluded to. Upon the strength of that tax immense sums of money had been borrowed by the City of London, and if it wore taken off in what way could the debt be paid ? The LORD MAYOR at once agreed in the view taken by Alderman Thompson, but Mr. Bradfield said Om he looked forward to the abolition of the tax with hope. HENRY DUNN, Secretary.

Such a n d s i m il ar are t h e impressions which you may feel in entering the p'easant town of Stratford-upon- Avon, in Warwickshire, a county which has not only been distinguished by the birth of Shakspeare within its confines, but also been honoured by those who were once the natives or residents in it, and the orna ments and benefactors of their 'country —a Rous, a Dugdale, an Addison, a Watt, a Priestly, and a Parr. Preparations are making for the annual festive cele bration of the birth-day of Shakspeare, by the committee of members of the Royal Shakspearian Club. The committee met this day, at the Falcon Tavern, to make arrangements for the usual banquet in the great room of the hall. There will not be any procession as in 1827 and 1830, the inclemency of the weather deterring the club from presenting any pageant. It was the same cause that prevented Garrick, in 1769, from carrying out his plan of a public representation of the more pro minent characters of Shakspeare's plays. THE BANQUETING HALL. The Town -hall is now being fitted up for the dinner and concert room. It is a very handsome room, sixty feet long and thirty wide. It is enriched by four large p flutings. Over the Chairman's seat is a full-length painting of " The" Poet, by Wilson, presented by Garrick in 1769. The bard is represented in his study, %vith pen in hand, intensely looking upwards—the painter, no doubt, bearing in mind the following lines from the play of the Midsummer Night's Dream : The Poet's eve, in a fine frenzy rolling, Doth glance from heaven to earth, from earth to heaven; And as imagination bodies forth The form of things unknown, the Poet's pen Turns them to shapes, and gives to airy nothings A local habitation and a name." At the opposite end of the room is the fine whole-length of Garrick, placed here in compliment to that celebrated actor at the expense of the Corporation. There is also a portrait of Queen Anne, and another of the Duke of Dorset, who was Lord of the Manor and High Steward of the borough at the time of Garrick's Jubilee. The tables of to-morrow's festival are arranged for 200 guests. The tickets are disposed of under the superintendence of the committee, and bear the appro priate inscription, " You are welcome —take your place." It is expected the attendance will be at least equal to that of last year. The chancel of the church of the Holy Trinity, and the birth place of Shakspeare, in Henley-street, are of course, the great objects of interest to the visiters. The former was new roofed, renovated, and restored two years ago, by a public subscription (limited to one gui nea), and collected throughout Europe and America. It is a beautiful fabric, of the religious style of archi tecture of the fifteenth century. The particulars of the monument of Shakspeare may be new to many of our readers. The effigy of Shakspeare was originally coloured, to resemble life, and its appearance, before touched by in, novation, is thus described in an old work on the Church :—" The eyes were of a light hazel, and the hair and beard auburn. The dress consisted of a scarlet doublet, ever which was a loose black gown, without sleeves. The cushion before him was of a crimson velvet and the upp:r part green, with gilt tassels." The arms are in a position for writing, and this day some votary t o the shrine had placed a pen in the hollow between th e thumb aed forefinger of the right hand. It is generally supposed that an iron pen was originally so paced. In the year 1748 this monument was carefully re paired, and the original colours preserved as nearly as possible. Mr. John Ward, grandfather to Mrs. Sid dens, and the manager of a theatrical company, gave the receipts arising from the representation of Othello (September 9, 1746), to defray the expenses thus in curred. In 1793 the bust and figure above, together with the figure of " John a Combo," were, at the re quest of Malone, the commentator, painted a stone co lour, with Ivhite lead t This instance of bad taste was satirized in one of' the books in which visitors enter their METROPOLITAN POLITICAL SUMMARY. The Times of this morning, in the course of a leading article, breathing the most rabid spite of Toryism, says, speaking of the prospects of Reform—" No man, with the use of his eyes and ears, can shut either to the unquestior,. able fact that Democracy is descending, and Conservatism rising, throughout the kingdom —aye, in Ireland, a*, w f It as here I No experiments, whether by men in offi. e , or excluded from it, will within a given period raise to any great height or prevalence, a democratic mania throughout this realm. Whether in the narrow sphere of Corpora. tions, or the wider one of national politics, the people aro sick of the fuss and quackery of Reform. It is vain, there fore, for the Movement Press to invoke the manes of a deceased delinquent. The nation is Conservative. The Government must be ruled by the same spirit. Lot , the lingering Cabinet experience what throw and convulsive agonies it will, there is no sympathy between it, and the people of England. 'Ile: people are healthy ; the Cabinet, as a power, is ex tinct. Its own quondam creatures have announced its death—cr, as the only alteration, have prescribed conali tions which there are no human means to execute." The Times here exhibits a happy knack at drawing conclusions,, not merely at variance with, but diametrically opposed to, facts. Thus, our Contemporary states that Conservatism is rising in Ireland, although tho late Dublin aggregate meeting—by far the most important ever held in the sister- - country—clearly proved that all Ireland is unanimous in favour of progressive Reform, and supports the present Mi nistry solely on that ground t Again, the Times assures us that the nation is Conservative, and that the Cabinet, as a power, is extinct ; taking for granted, of course, that the late majority in the House of Commons is an irresisti ble evidence both as a Whig defeat and a Tory triumph 1 With regard to the phrase " quackery of Reform," this_ comes with peculiar propriety from a Journal which was the very first to recommend this quackery, as the only means left of restoring the Constitution to a state of cot valescenee. The Morning Post, alluding to the vacancy at St. Ka therine's Hospital, observes—" Since the rght of a4oliet ment vests in the Queen Dowager, the public will entertain no doubt of its being exercised in favour of' some gentle man of unblemished integrity, and unsullied honour. Tiio same confidence might have been wanting, had Ikdiuise fe been able to make out their claim to the patronage svhieh they coveted so intensely, that they I:ad net the decency to wait for the death of the late Master, before they tea steps' in order to the maintenance of their unfounded pretension," The Morning Chronicle puts forth these observations ett the subject of progressive Reform :—" Fey Rufeermeirs can be said to bo indifferent to the existence of the pre sent Ministry, or unaware that the Tories would derive a considerable accession to their power from office. It is because Reformers aro not indifferent to the existence of the Ministry, that they are anxious to see them pursue the course by which alone that existence can be prolonged. We say nothing on the present state of Ireland and Scot. land, but it is notorious that, as regards England, the lie form Bill has delivered over the representation to the- T.,- ries. A Ministry professing attachment to Reform prin ciples, cannot, in consistency with these principles, insist on the fi nality of a Bill un d er wh i ch the people ' are hot represented—Ministers have placed the Reformers in a fake position, and we trust a course of policy will yet be adopted, calculated to satisfy the reasonable expectations of the people, and enable Members to justify their votes to their constituents. If it be determined to allow no °stele tiel improvement to be made in the R form Bill, nothing can prevent the Tories from repossessing themselvez please. An indifference to root,oll- Aloe, whenever they of able Reform is not the way to cure the people of ant indif ference to the existence ot' Ministers." The Morning Herald, alluding to Sir Edward Centring_ ton's motion on Tuesday night, remarks as follows : " England is not at this moment in a position to matueeiet her naval supremacy. Her fleets are rotting in kir her bows, or they are at sea imperfectly equipped and most in efficiently manned, whether we regard the actual neces.A_ ties of the service or the practice of foreign powes. Russia, an inland power, posses.es a far greater numb r of ships of war available for the purposes of aggresslee :Lae England does. France, without any natural pretensions to a high rank among maritime states, can boast of a navy far more effective than any patent of the navy of England. The Government of England finds it difficult to man Bei tish ships of war. A mean, miserable system is putsnest both towards the officers and the men. Both classes aro underpaid, and the latter class is fearfully cm-worked. Thi,ty thousand of the best of our seamen are, at this mo ment, in the service of the United States, whilst, at the same time, there is scarcely an English ship of war fully manned." The Morning Adrertiser contains a leading atti;:l , ! whose object is to impr,ss on Ministers the necessity of further Reforms. "It yet remains to be sen," say 3 Oar Contemporary, " how Minist,rs will use their victory o7er their opponents ; they still h ve an Opportunity of Ci..l)_ contrating in their support the suffrages of all the wise and the good of the comuluni!y; and we hap they will ads:)t their policy to that most desirable end. We shall not rfo ju,lge th,rm but it is only by liberal etnicesaions to clai,sis which they have hitherto rejected, that they may expect to Lind security for themselves or the nation." 9110 be SOLD by TENDER, by Order of ...IL the PRINCIPAL OFFICERS of HER MAJESTY'S BOARD of ORDNANCE, The SLOOP " DUKE of RICHMOND," of about •56 Tons Burthen, Old Measurement, with her Mast, Spars, Rig ging, and Stores, as she now lies at the Tower Wharf.

THE PROPRIETORSNATIONAL OF " ALLE THE WEEKLY CHRO NICLE" TO THE PEOPLE OF THE BRITISH EMPIRE. The PrOprietors of the "WEEKLY CHRONICLE," en couraged b the still increasing prosperity of their Journal, 'lava determined upon the publication of a series of Pet - traits, ENGRAVED ON STEEL, To be called collectively " THE NATIONAL GA LLER Y;" this title being adopted front the conviction that any other name, less comprehensive, would, be found unworthy of thc extent and high purpose of the undertaking, as well as of the surpassing beauty with which it will be carried out. The ap pearance of " .17HE NATIONAL GALLERY," whether considered as a work of art, or with. reference to its easy posses sion by the very humblest of the land, will forni an extraordi nary epoch in the history of the English Press. OBJECTS OF THE WORK. The purpese of the Proprietors of " THE WEEKLY CHRONICLE" is to assemble in " THE NATIONAL GAL LERY," the Portraits of those Publie Men who hare most dis tinguished themselves during the present century ; and whose labours, whether in the field or the senate, hare exercised the greatest influence upon the age in which they live. In addition to these will be given the most distinguished Women of the Court of Queen Victoria ; with whose own Portrait the Gal lery would naturally have commenced, bat for the circumstance of its herb]h been se recently presented to the Readers of the ‘.

To each Portrait will be appended an impartial Biographical Memoir, printed on imperial hot-pressed quai to, uniformly with the Engraving.

To those subscribers desirous of pessessine• THE NA TIONAL GALLERY, the price of THE * WEEKLY CHRONICLE will be that of other papers—namely, Six pence. To those, however, should there be such, who may prefer the Paper without the Engraving or Memoir, the price will be as at present, Fourpence-halfpenny. THE WEEKLY CHRONICLE NATIONAL GALLERY. A Portrait will be delivered with a Paper on the payolent of One Shilling; and at the same time a Ticket, which will en title the holder to a Paper and a " Memoir," on the following week, for " nothing." The first number of " The National Gallery" will be published on the Ist of July next, and the cor responding Memoir on the Bth ; so that in each alternate week there will given a Portrait or Memoir. The work will form a magnificent annual volume in imperial quarto—a volume not to be purchased, at the present time, at less than Five Guineas. Every precaution has been taken by the Proprietors to be pro vided with a supply—great as the demand must necessarily be—. by the erection of steam machinery on the premises, at the out lay of several thousand pounds. Specimens of the Portraits will be found at the principal Newsvenders throughout the United Kingdom. That of his Grace the Duko of Wellington may, together with a Memoir, be received by all Agents by the 20th of April. ARTISTS ENGAGED FOR THE WORK. The Proprietors feel that they have only to give, the names of Hayter, Chalon, Latina, and Stewart, as the Painters em ployed for the NATIONAL GALLERY, to at once assure themselves of the eootidence of the public, not only as to the worth and beauty ef the forthcoming work, but as to the feel ing which animates the Projectors in this national enterprise. Among the Engravers will be found the names of Fintlen, 11. Robinson, Mute, Cook, WagstaiT, W. Hull, Brown, Hall, &c. &c. &c. Ilence, the Publishers have, they conceive, given suflliecnt warranty that no considerations of cost have weighed with thorn in their attempts to make the NATIONAL GAL LERY worthy of its ambitious title. Ail that modern art can effect will be lavished on the undertaking. The same pencils, the same gravers, employed to minister to the tastes of the highest and richest in the land, will labour for the gratification of the humblest Englishman—the painter for the Court will be the painter for the Cottage. MORAL INFLUENCE OF THE WORK. The Projectoes of the NATIONAL GALLERY feel that their contemplated enterprise involves deeper and nobler consi derations than may superficially present themselves. It is scarcely possible th a t a wor k o f suc h an extent, executed with all the high refinements of art, should not assert a great moral influence—an influence working for good; and tending at once to improve the mind, and elevate the taste of the people. In the NATIONAL GALLERY the Englishman will be con tinually reminded of the g ' eatness, and of th e consequent va l ue of his country ;of her gigantic power—her moral might-- her triumphs over rival nations. Ho will read in the lives of Englishmen, the irresistible force of British valour —the calm, comprehensive, and determined resistance to wrong the advo. cacy of the most sacred rights of our most common nature—which fo m the basis of our national character. All the ennobling sentiments that constitute the lofty-minded soldier—the wise and gene..ous Statesman—the Patriot—and the Philanthropist, will be felt and at:knee 'edged by our readers ; and thus, in the projected publication, every subscriber to " Tho National Gal lery" of " The Weekly ChronFele," will hese the gratification of possessing at the.most trifling cost the most perfect record of his country's glory. All persons desirous of receivitv this magnificent work with regularity and certainty, should immediately give their orders to the various News-agents and Booksellers throughout the Kingdom—a method rendered indispensable from the impossi bility of making any arrangements, in so gigantic an undertaking liar the supply of casual subscribers. To the regular Subscribers of the " Weekly Chronicle" this gallery is presented gratis. To non-subscrib:ms the price of one Portrait will be 11. 13.6 d. Separate Portraits on India paper, 21. 2s.

Where in th e History or Lectures of the Apos les do we find the shadow— the sembl ance o f suc h an apostate worship ? They worsltippeil the God of their Fatheis; they w orshipped him as the God of their Lord Jesus Christ, but they w orshi pped hint in the nacreof that Lord.

Warentid not to lake." IRELAND. The Dublin papers arc chiefly occupied with the report of the debate on the Irish policy of Ministers, and contain no intelligence of which we were not before in possession. The collection for the sustainment of Mr. O'Connell we see is proceeding, the Register says, " With the most marked success." The Pilot proclaims the fact, that " the Ministry have been saved by their Irish policy and their Irish friends ;" adding, with much more in the same tone—" This, it is to be hoped, will have its due efF._ , ct on their operations, and relieve them from the apology so often resorted to by the statesmen who have passed down the stream of time, and are nearly forgotten, There is no knowing which side to please,' We think, after what his occurred, th e . e ' can be' no longer any; mistake as to the side to please." The following morceaux are from the Mail :—Mr. George Evans is stated to have presented, among other petitions favourable to the Irish policy of Ministers, one from Coleraine. Such a document, if in existence at all, must either be a forgery, or got up by some secret society —for it was newer heard of in the place from whence it purports to have emanated. Measures have been taken to procure a copy of the alleged petition, and the names of those attached to it ; and Mr. Litton, the Member for the borough, has been uritten to upon the subject. " It forms pa r t o f t h e system of'the Procursors in the pro vinces to drive from their residences by intimidation—if other means fa:l—the gentry of the country ; and the Press has adopted a somewhat similar tactique in respect to Judges and other official personages who seem to live too long for the objects of the party. A few days since we cbseived one of these side-wind squibs—which was, by the way, afterwards candidly contradicted—in the Morning Register, in reference to the health of Mr. Justice John too. We did not then consider it necessary to contradict the report, nor should we now, but that we find it copied into the London Papers. The venerable and Learned Judge is at this moment sitting on the Bench, in the en iiyment of as good health, and in the possession of all the vigour of intellect for which lie was so singularly remark able, as he has been for many years; and we sincerely hope he may long continue exempt from all "attacks," excepting such as originate in the columns of angry Newspapers.

It is remarkable there are no monumental inscrip lions to other poisons of the name of Shakspeare, except Lis wife, who it is recorded died on the Gth of August, 162:3, at the age of 67 years.

All that is earthly of this incomparable writer is on the north side cfthe chancel under a flat stone, wHeh is never waled upon by the visitors who generally insert their names, addr: - ss, &e., in books kept by the vestry woman. There are many beautiful poetic effu sions in the handwriting of princes, poets, historians, statesmen, and warriors. One by Lucien Bonaparte is very flue, but we have no room for extracts. Similar books are kept in tiro room the bard was born in, and here the wllls and ceiling arc so completely covered that it is difficult to find an inch to pencil 3our name. Indeed, many vent names the writer saw there in former years :,re quite illegible from bring written over. The improvcd hydraulic machine, which we some time ago nuticed as invented by Mr. Whitelaw, En pi ,cter, Glasgow, for the pur,,cse of increasing the power obtained by water, and measming the quantity used, was yesterday set in motion for the working of a Brahmah press. at the bluachfield of Mr. Stirrat, Netherct aigs. The advantage of this machine over the common water-wheel is first a sowing of two or three tin es the cost of erec tion ; and second, the obtaining, ts is supposed, one thir.l more power by tho weight of the water being wholly applied till it tscape, u ith the same eflect as when in the water-w heti ; it is in a position horizontal with the shaft. So fir as this c xperi.nent at Nethercraigs can go to esta blis% the use of :hi; new application, it has been far more sttec.ssful than expected. The machine accomplished all the ,ork it was calculated for in about half the time ex pected, and with only the one half of the water applied— tt e sluice having bcen only half opened.— Glasgow Chronicle. THE CHILDREN'S FRIENDS SOCIETY.—At the Marylebone Police-otPee, fresh complaints were pre f,Tred against this S oc i e ty. O ne o f th e complainants stated that his nephew, on arriving at the Cape, was sold for 8/. I 0,;. to a Dutch fdrmer, in the same way that the boy Trubshaw was disposed of, whose case has been so much before the public. Tao letters from the bsy in question were read, and bore out the uncl,'t state went. Mr. Raw linson, addressing the complainant, said—." I'd advise you to take the letters and make another application, and when }ou hav,i done so bri ng th em b ac k to me, and I will for ward them to the Secretary of State. After what has ranspired, Government cannot do less than institute a rigid iaquiry, through the medium of the local authorities of the colony." The applicant then left the ofliee, and informed our reporter that the poor boy been se n t away b y t h e parochial authorities of St. .1 :riles's, without his (appli cant's) sanction or consent. As soon as this case was dis pose, a m d of, blind old woman, named M D ona ld , entered the office, led by a little boy, and mode a statement to the Magistrate similar to the above. She was. she said, nn to the boy, who had been in the Cape four years, and the; could get no intelligence from him. The poor while snaking h er statement. old woman cried bitterly Mr. Rawlinson, after remarking that it "as truly distress ing to hear such numerous. complaint s , re f erre d t h e poor old creature to the Stmety, as in the former case.
