Til E LONDON JOURNALS. XXTRACT3 FROM THE 'DAILY MORNING I'APERS _November 12, 1822. [MOUNING CHRONICLE.]. _ 1 1 The agitation on, the Stock 'Excliange, pro dttced by the apprehension of war, was still very great yesterday. An article in the Journal des Deb_ats, supposed. to be official, was the prin cipal cause of this apprehension. This article, as,our readers will see,_alludes to a report of an intended - trial of the two Princes, Infantes of Spain, or at -least . the Infante Don Carlos, in - which case France would be impelled by honour invade Spain,- with a view to their relief. — We confess that we see in this nothing to 'stake the opinion we, have forrned, from good information,- of the dispositions of the Con g6ss. We know that the course, with regard toSpain, had been agreed on—that the time was even fixed for the departure of the Sovereigns— that the, affairs, which still occupied them, were of a minor.nature ; and it will require something much more positive than the contents of 'this ar ticle, -to induce us to believe that they have abandoned,their pacific views. In the first place, we do not believe that the Spaniards hate any intention of -bringing any of the Infantes to trial. That Don Carlos is a sworn foe to the Constitu tiOn, that his conduct has been criminal in the tremei that he was deeply implicated in the murder of Landabaru, is but too well known. Still we believe the Spanish Constitutionalists fro' not now' wish to question the peculiar dis tinction claimed by'the Legitimates of Europe, for themselves and all who are connected with them by 'blood, of violating with impunity every divine and human law. As Don Carlos, too, did not . • perpetrate the murder himself, but merely gave the signal for it, and the last reproach which can be• urged against the Spanish Constitution alists is a thirst for brood, they may think that of the agent of the Infante sufficient for the purpose of example. At all events we understand they mean to do nothing more than exhibit Don Carlos -to the world in his true colours, by , making him state what he knows respecting the foul trans - actions which preceded the 7th. • DIORNiNG POST.] French Papers to the iithinst. reached us by . .Ekpress last night. Their contents are only im portant, because they do not confirm those re ports which have so - deeply affected the Public Securities in both countries. In Paris, the alarm seems too have been still greater than in London and with less cause, for here it was grounded on positive assertions, made with all th. COLA dqnce.of apparent sincerity, whilst in the French capital it was chiefly the . work of inferences 'drawn from the language used 'by the Ultra and Ministerial Prints, and not from any thin g in the shape of an authentic statement. The Vrench Funds,at one time, were as low as 435 frs., being'a fall of not less than S per 'cent. in the short space of three days. This has shown the Government - what was flie real sense of the nation with 'respect to a war with Spain, and "that the first result of its being undertaken would be the destruction of the public credit. 'lt has therefore diminished' instead of encreasing the probability of such a mar ; for unless the present Ministers should be as blind to its perils as they seem to be to its in justice, it is impossible to believe that they would drag their country and the very Dynasty whom they pretend to serve, into an abyss of ruin, for no other purpose than to reinstate Despotism in the full possession of its unjust and oppressive powers. Letters from Vienna state the arrival of a courier from Verona, with intelligence ,. that the return of the Allied Monarchs to the Austrian capital would take place in December nest, and that the Emperor Alexander intended to be in St. .Petersburgh before the Ist of January. [BRITISH PRESS.] The rumours of approaching hostilies between France and Spain, which struck so great a panic; into the Stock Exchange on Saturday, prevailed yesterday in undiminished force. All was agita tion and uncertainty. In the Spanish funds par ticularly no price could be depended upon for a minute together. They were done so, low as 53, and left off at 57. The market exhibited many scenes of deep distress. Several of the losers appeared to have lost their reason with their money.. The various rumours by which the panic was created are generally supposed to have originated in stock jobbing specUlation; they are not supported by any intelligence received by Government, and, with the exception of an article in the Journal des DI?ouls of Friday, have re ceived no countenance from the Paris Papers. [MORNING HERALD.] The warlike and inauspicious rumours, respect ing Spain and the Congress, received no confir mation in the course of yesterday. No intelli gence, tending in any manner to countenance them, reached Government. It is true the French papers of Friday continue to represent the French Army of Observation as on the alert, undergoing campaign exercises and inspections, and appearing in every respect on the eve of taking the field. But these are indecisive, and without even demi-official authority. The Foreign Papers communicate nothing respect ing the Congress; and the rumour, that a communication .was made by it_ to the• Spa nish Government, demanding that the Spa nish Constitution should be new modelled into such a form as would vest more power in the Crown, remains unconfirmed and uncontradicted. It is very unlikely that any communication had I.)en made, at the time supposed by these reports, by the Congress to the Spanish Government. In Madrid it could not have remained secret. It would be neither prudent nor' safe for the Spa nish Ministry to have kept it one day from the knowledge of the Cortes ; and had it been made known to that body, even in a secret sitting, its existence at least, if not its contents, must have become public. The next question is, whether a Declaration respecting Spain has been already determined by the Congress. If such is the fact, we eau hardly believe that it is of the nature' and character ascribed to it--a sort of Ultimatum,' calling peremptorily upon Spain to adopt certain specified modifications and changes in her poli tical Constitution. This would be tantamount •to a declaration of war, though it began and ended with words and professions of peace. — The demand of unreasonable conditions is a de claration of hostilities: [NEW , TIMES.] The Funds continue to fall ; and the impres sion that hostilities are on the eve of breaking out prevails generally on the Exchanges of Lon don and of Paris. To persuade the public in either country that there is'no cause for appre hension would certainly be difficult : to catch up and aggravate the alarm is extremely easy. The former of these tasks we shall not attempt : the latter we leave to those Journals which acknow ledge no ruling principal but the passions of the multitude: It is believed that the French Army of Observation is about to enter Spain. For our part, we do not think that events are yet ripe for such a measure : we trust that it may be averted ; but if it should - take place, we consider that its con sequences-would be far less prejudicial than is generally apprehended. We are well aware how extremely desirable Peace is to Europe in general, arid to England in particular : but be it observed, a general peace does not now exist. A civil war of a Most sanguinary kind is car rying o❑ in Spain : "and the ifiterference of a Foreign Power may put an end to that contest "at once : it may be the means , of tranquillising Europe, instead of extending the sphere of deso lation. That any Power has a right to interfere in a Civil War, and to support the party whose cause it considers just, we have repeatedly shown to be consistent with the most indisputable prin ciples of the Law of Nations ; but that- this in terference shoiild be avoided as long as is pos sible, consistently with the common good, is a point on which, we trust and believe, all the Great Powers'of Europe are fully agreed. [THE TIMES.] There are two points from whence light springs, and that as yet but scantily, to show the views of the Powers of Europe with respect to the Spanish revolution—namely, Verona and Paris. Our publication of yesterday laid open the in tentions, or at least the wishes, of the French Government, which were hostile, and which menaced active hostility to the new Constitution of Spain. We have only to refer to the state of the French funds, and the reasonings of the French Papers, for the accuracy of our informa tion in this respect. It is possible that the Councils at Verona may be of a more cautious kind : and we have indeed heard, that the members of Congress, though possessing a disposition simi lar to that of the French Ministry, are yet more aware of the difficulties they will have to en counter in the attempt to interfere by arms in the concerns of the Peninsula. The French Minister at Congress, in conformity with the views of his Court at bodie,, presses the interfer ence, and a general - 'acquiescence is only stopped or suspended by the influence of the Duke of Wellington. His Grace knows Spain, which is more than can be said for any of his assessors. in the political assembly. at Verona ; and he is reported to have described most for cibly the dangers attendant on a campaign in the Peninsula. It has always been said with respect to the invasion of Spain, that if you sent a large army, it would perish for want of pro visions : if a small one, it would be defeated.— In addition to these general considerations, his Grace represented the perfection to which the Guerilla system has now been brought by long practice, the facilities afforded by the country to that speCies of warfare, and above Al, the courage and zeal of the inhabitants. These considera tions, offered by one so fully competent to ap preciate their importance, are said for a while to have supplied an equipoise to the impor tunities of the French Minister, and to have inclined the grave assembly to try peaceful representations before the gauntlet of war is thrown down. We, who are of opinion that peaceful representations are all that should be tried by Foreign Powers, can of course have no objection that those should be the beginning, which ought also to be the middle and the end. But still there *is a mighty itching in the legiti mate Sovereigns to interfere actively, in be half of their brother the King of Spain. The knowledge that such a disposition exists will be of no great service to his Majesty ; whilst positive interference may probably be his ruin. The fluctuation of the Funds yesterday, in the British market, exhibited the unsettled state of public opinion with respect to the issue of the existing political crisis ; but the changes which have taken place in the value of Spanish stock are still more remarkable. Those Bonds (of 1820 and 1821) which but lately Were re spectively at 87 and 75, were at one time sunk to 65 and 53. In Paris, where the apprehension of warlike measures was more vivid, the depre ciation was still more remarkable, for there one class fell to 431-4 o mischievous a change in the value of property has been produced by the bare rumour or •increasing probability that Europe is to be replunged into war. What ruin will the war itself occasion, if unfortunately it be under taken ? We have — received ,positive assurances from a quarter in which we place the greatest coal,- dence, that the latest possible information from ' "Verona completely contraditts the rumours in circulation on Saturday. Every thing, we under stand, is going on with the most perfect harmony, and there will be no interference with Spain on the part of any Power whatever. The reports of war with France are, therefore, altogether un true. The Duke of WELLINGTON will leave Verona in three or four days, and the Emperors of RUSSIA and AUSTRIA towards .the end of the month. The former is to be at St. Petersburgh by the 20th.of December. 7 --(lltorning Chronicle.) The Admiralty has acceded to an application for. regular convoys to the trade to the windward parts of Colombia. THE ROYAL HARBOUR OF RAMSGATE. It will be in the recollection of our, readers, that his Majesty last year was graciously pleased to select Ramsgate as the place of his embarkation upon his tour to Hanover. The inhabitants, anxious to testify their sense of so distinguished a mark of Royal favour, entered into a subscrip tion, in conjunction with the Trustees of the Harbour and the visitors, to erect a monument as the record of that event, and of their loyalty and attachment to their beloved Sovereign. A Committee was appointed, of which Sir WILLIAM CURTIS was elected Chairman, for carrying the objects proposed into effect. Friday the Bth of November 1821, was the day upon which his Majesty, on his return from the Continent, landed at Rams gate, the anniversary of which was fixed upon for laying the first stone of the Obelisk, which is to be erected upon the pier. At an early hour the shipping in the Royal Harbour displayed their colours; and the houses in the principal streets were deco rated with flags and other marks of public rejoicing. The sub scribers to the Monument assembled in the Town Hall, and marched in procession, preceded by a band of music, to the Pier, House, where the• Earl of Liverpool, attended by Sir W. Curtis and the Committee, and several distinguished visitors, were waiting to receive them. The Ladies of the Subscribers, of the respectable part of the inhabitants, and many of the visitors, were accommodated with seats in the Pier House, which commands a view of the Pier. At twelve o'clock the. Earl of Liverpool, accompanied by the High Sheriff of the county of Kent, Sir Wm. Curtis., the Members of the Committee, and other Subscribers, pro ceeded to the piece of ground, in front of the Pier House, which has been granted by the Trustees of the Harbour for l i the scite of the Obelisk. The ceremony of laying the first ,stone was then performed by the Noble Earl and the Com mittee,, the guns upon the 'Pier firing a Royal salute, and the bands playing " GOd save the King," amidst the loud cheering of the spectators. The Company then retired into the Pier House, where refreshments were provided. The stone of which the Obelisk will he composed is one of the finest specimens of granite, and has been brought from the quarry at 'Dartmoor i and As far as we were • able, in this early stage, to form any Judgment of the workmanship, it reflects great credit upon those. who have been employed, and particularly upon Mr. Shaw, the architect, who personally superintended the laying of i the first stone. Arrangements having been made by the Subscribers to cele brate the event by a Pablic dinner at the Albion Tavern, at five o'clock,' the Earl of LIVEnPOOL, supported by the High Sheriff, Sir Wm. Curtis, Bart., Sir James Lake, Sir T. Staines, Sir T. Grey,. 0. C. Antrobus, M.P., T. Divett, M.P., J. Plummer, M.P., J. Warre, Esq., Granville Penn, Esq., J. Marjoribanks, Esq., W. Pratt, Esq., J. Greaves, Esq., J. Garrott, Esq., J. Hall, Esq., &c: Sce„ took the Chair, and upwards of 170 Gentlemen sat dOwn to a good substantial dinner. A band of music was stationed in the gallery, and played se veral national airs during the dinner. - After the removal of the cloth, Non Nobis was sung by some professionil Gentlemen,. Members 'a the Canterbury Glee-Club, 'll+' were engaged for the occasion. ' The Noble Earl then rose, and proposed the health of " King George the Foarth, and may, be long live continue to coninue his mild sway over a free and happy people." - This toast was drank with four times four, and cheered in the most enthusiastic manner. . . After " The Duke of York and the Army," " The Duke of Clarence and the Navy," and the other branches of the Royal Family, had been successively.given, the Noble Lord proposed the health of " The Directors and Trustees of the Harbour of Ramsgate ; who have, in conjunction with the Inhabitants and Visitors of this -Town, united in a public testimonial of their love and attachment to their Sovereign, who,has been graciously pleased to shew a mark of special favour, in the selection of this Port for the place of his embarkation and landing." 'Sir WILLIAM CURTIS rose to return thanks for the honour which had been done the Trustees in drinking their healths. In the arrangements which the short notice at the time had enabled them to make for the embarkation and disembarkation of His Majesty, they bad' endeavoured tohnite their best efforts ,with those.of the inhabitants of the town,' in proving that they were truly sensible of the distinguished honour His Majesty had been pleased to confer upon the town, and the now Royal Harbour 'and Port of Ramsgate. The advantages to the town and har bour of His Majesty's gracious visit had already been experi enced, and he should never cease to consider the circumstances which led to them as the proudest moments of his life ; nor would his posterity ever forget, that His Majesty had graciously condescended'to select his house as the place of his repose on, the - night previously to Ills Majesty's embarkation. Tile PirstnEavr then rose and observed- ; that having pro potedrall•the public toasts he could not allow any other toast to pre c ede' ,‘ the health of the Ladies of Ranisgate," which he was sure would be drank with the usual honours. Glee-a—" To all you Ladies now at Land." Sir W. CURTIS, after a suitable introduction, proposed the health of the Noble Chairman, the Earl of Liverpool, Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports. - • His Lordship requested the company' would- believe that he was truly sensible of the honour the had done him, not only by drinking his health, but by the manner in which it had'been re ceived; he begged they would be assured, that froni the first mo ment of his holding the office of Lord Warden, hebad been most anxious for the prosperity of that portion of his Majesty's domi nions situated within the limits of the Cinque Ports. He trusted that the inhabitants of Ramsgate were Satisfied with the alacrity with which he had endeavoured to discharge his duty towards his Sovereign. As soon as lie was apprised of his Ma jesty's gracious intention to embark at Ramsgate, he was at his post, and he participated with themselves in the sense they en tertained of the honour his Majesty had been pleased to con fer upon the inhabitants of the town, and assured them that his Majesty had been graciously pleased to express how sensible he was of the loyalty and affection which had been exhibited by 'that portion of his subjects, upon the occasion which had called them together that day. The following toasts were next given by the Noble Presi dent " The High Sheriff of the County." " The Lord Lieutenant of the County." "The Committee of five, whose exertions hive contributed to the early completion of the work which has been confided to their supervision." Sir W. CURTIS rose to return thanks, and regretted that, being the senior 'in years, he was compelled to take the pre cedence in replying 4-but, circumstanced as he was, he did not mean to say a word for his colleagues in office, as they were quite competent to speak for themselves. He desired to assure them .that lie felt proud and gratified at having been. one of the promoters of the great and good object they that day had met to celebrate, and should be happy to meet them at the next anniversary. They could not fail to be satisfied that in testifying their attachment, and giving their support to his Majesty, they were supporting themselves. Mr. Warre, Mr. Garret, Mr. Tomson, and Mr. Shore, the other Members of the Committee, severally returned thanks. Sir W. CURTIS next rose to propose a toast, which he was certain would be received with universal acclamations; It was the first opportunity which he had in public, and he seized it with avidity to propose the health of the Countess of Liverpool. The toast was received with the loudest applause, and the Noble Earl returned thanks, and assured the company that her Ladyship would be most grateful for the mark of attention they had just paid to her. The CHAIRMAN then addressed the company, and adverting to the advanced period of the evening, stated that he understood it to be the Universal wish that the meeting of that day should be an annual one, he therefore proposed as a parting toast— " The next Merry Meeting." , The Noble Earl then withdrew amidst the cheers of the com pany, and, we are happy to say, we never saw his Lordship in better spirits, and never heard hum in better voice. Sir T. GREY was then called to the Chair, and the remainder of the evening was spent in conviviality and perfect harmony. The Charleston Papers contain the following accounts of the late dreadful hurricane :—. " Distressing particulars of this awful visitation are hourly crowding upon us. To the South and West the desolution does not appear to have extended far, but to the North and East its ra vages are excessive. Indeed this city was agi tated all yesterday afternoon by a report that the settlements at North Inlet, the summer resi dence of the inhabitants of Georgetown, had been swept away, and that all the inhabitants, with one excepted, had perished. At length a mes senger arrived, just at dark from Georgetown with intelligence that two families had only fal len victims. " Letters from St. James (Sarlee), state, that on Murphy's Island the devastation is great beyond description—whole plantations have and, melancholy to been nearly swept away, re late, 50 negroes have been lost by being drowned." ' _ _ BARTHOLET, the celebrated chymist, died at Paris on the 6th inst. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Mon)AY,. NOV.., 11. DIURRAY V. THE EARL OF STAIR. This was an action on a bond given by Lord Stair; when Mr. Dalrymple, to the party of whom the present plaintiff' is admi nistrator, conditioned for the payment of 2,000/. at the expira tion of six months after the death of, his uncle. At the trial before the Lord Chief Justice, two grounds of defence were set up; first, that the bond •was given in substitution for bills, arising out of a gambling transaction, and fraudulently en-- dorsed by a person who received them for a special purpose ; and second, that the bond was not delivered absolutely, but as an escrow, being deposited with Mr. Saunders, the solicitor of Mr. Dalrymple, on condition that it should not be given to Murray, till the death of Lord Stair. The first ground of de fence failed entirely, as will appear on reference to our report of the case ; and on the second it is proved that the bond was exe cuted with no qualifying expressions, though it was understood that it was to be held by- Saunders until the death of the uncle. It was afterwards agreed between Saunders and Murray, that the former should also retain it as an indemnity against any loss which might arise from his own situation as security for Mrs. Murray ; but subsequently, and before the death of Lord Stair, Saunders yielded to Murray's entreaties, and gave the instrument into his hands. The Lord Chief Justice held, that as the deed was absolutely delivered, no more understanding could be suffered to prevail so as to make it an escrow, and directed a verdict for the plaintiff. Mr. SCARLETT now moved for a rule to show cause why this verdict should not be set aside and a nonsuit entered, on the ground that no precise form of words was necessary to the delivery of a deed as an escrow, but that if it was Previously understood to be given only on condition, its effect would be limited by the intention of the parties. In the case of " John son v. Baker," 4 Barnewall and Alderson, 440, it was holden, that where before the execution of a composition deed, it was agreed in the presence of the surety for the payment of the composition, that it should be void unless all the creditors exe cuted it, and where the surety, at the same interview, after wards executed the deed in the ordinary mode, after which it was delivered to one of the creditors, in order that he might get it executed by the rest, this was to be regarded as a de livery of the deed as an escrow, and as all the creditors did not execute it, the surety was not bound. This case, the Learned Counsel contended, was in principle exactly similar to the present. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE said, that on this case .. Mr. Scarlett might take a rule to show cause. ABBEY V. CABS.' Mr. SCARLETT said, that this was an action against the re turning officer of the borough of Aldborough, tried before the Lord Chief Justice at thd last Assizes 'for the county of York. He had been instructed to look at the case• in all its bearings, in order that he might find some ground of motion for k new trial if any existed ; but he must confess that there did not ap pear to him to be any. He would not, therefore, trouble the Court on the subject. CRIMINAL INFORMATION AGAINST THE COUNTY OF B,ERKS. Mr. TAUNTON said, that he was instructed to move the Court for a rule to show cause why a criminal information should not be granted against the inhabitants of the county of Berks, for their refusal to repair a bridge situated within the county.. The application would, at first, appear extraordinary, but a similar application had been madeto the Court when Lord Ellenborough presided, against the same county, when his Lordship directed another Bill to be preferred before a Grand Jury, but observed, that in last resort, the Court would interfere in the manner requested, rather than there should be a failure of justice. Now this case was not brought before the Court until after repeated applications to Grand Juries and to the Magistrates at Sessions, the result of which proved beyond all doubt, that, unless the Court would interpose, there would be an entire failure of justice, and no means would remain of try ing the liability of the county to repair; if, indeed, on this point, any doubt could exist. . , The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE asked what view the affidavits gave of the liability of the county to repair ? Mr. TAUNTON replied, that the bridge lay in the direct line of the turnpike road, and had always been used by the public. It was built across the river Isis, in the road from Aston-line, in Oxfordshire, to Farringdon, in Berkshire. In 177f1, it was erected by the trustees of the road, part of the expense of its erection being defrayed out of their funds, and part by voluntary contributions. In 1779 it was taken down, and the present bridge was erected in its place. The affidavits stated that this bridge was in Berkshire : that it had been completely adopted by the public ; and that it had gradually fallen to decay and become even dangerous to passengers. At the Spring Ses sions in last year application was made to the Magistrates on the subject; they appointed two .gentlemen, named Blandy and Mills, to inquire of the state and local situation of the bridge ; and on their report that the bridge was in a state of dilapidation, and sitpate within the county, they made an order for repairing the bridge, but directed that payment should not be made until the question of liability should be decided. Some repairs; therefore, were done, but no payment.made on account of the expences. A bill was preferred against the county at the last Lent Assizes; and though four witnesses swore to the local situation and the condition of the road, the Grand Jury threw out the bill. At the Midsummer Sessions another bill was pre ferred, which shared the same fate. Again, at the Michaelmas Sessions, a bill was preferred, when certain circumstances oc curred which he (Mr. Taunton) would rather read from the affidavits than trust himself to detail, as they were of a peculiar nature, and involved individuals of high station and character. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE.—Why need you state them at all ? In the event,your bill was , I pretume, again thrown out? Mr. TAUNTON.—Yes, my Lord.. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE.—YOU have stated enough to entitle you to a rule to show cause. Do you propose to serve it On the Clerk of the Peace ? Mr. TAIT NT mi.—Yes; and on two Magistrates to whom the affidavits particularly refer. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE.-Take a rule to show cause. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Nov. 11. The Court sat at eleven o'clock this morning, in justification of bail, when Fitzpatrick's hail, (two actions) were opposed. Mr. Sergeant PELL stated the contents -of a joint affidavit by William Thomas and John Bell. _ . William Thomas deposed, that William Lakin, one of the bail, was not at all known, nor what business he carried on. He did not appear-to have In worth of furniture in his house; and the person of whom the deponent inquired respecting the circumstances of the bail, said he owed her for one ounce of tobacco, which he had not paid for ; and that he could not pay his rent, until his lodgers had, paid theirs. As regarded the other bail of Thomas Johnson, it was stated that he kept a house of ill-fame; that he did not pay his rent., Mr. Justice PARK —I desire that the Attornies do not put in their affidavits such words as these ; it is extremely wrong, and I hope it will not be the case in future. The Learned Sergeant then examined the bail ("William Lakin) who answered the Sergeant in quite familiar terms, such as " now, my dear Sir,—Lord, Sir, how can I answer that question," which caused a good deal of laughter in Court. The Sergeant begged he would come to the point. He might, he said, have been out when the landlord called for his rent, but certainly he owed none at this time; that lie had, never been bail but once before ; the exact time, he could not say, nor could he say the Attorney's name, which Mr. Justice Burrough said was not material, and the bail were allowed, on their swearing they had double the sum. Lakin had fre hold and copyhold property, and Johnson more than doable the amount of 136/. (the amount of both actions) in . money, after his debts were paid.—The bail were allowed. • Mr. Justice PAitx—Again, I hope the Attorneys will attend to what I have said respecting irrelevant matter in the affida vits in opposition to bail. The Loyal Orange Society celebrated the landing of Ring William 111. at South Shields, by a grand procession from their lodge room to St. Hild's Church, where an excellent sermon was preached by the Rev. C. Barnes, and a collection made in aid of the funds of the South Shields Old Charity School, amounting to 41. Bs. 9d. The Anniversary of Guy-Faux-Day was cele. brated on Tuesday, at Portsmouth, by salutes being fired by the garrison and ships of war at noon. The Newfoundland fisheries have not been so successful for twenty years past as during the late season. Mr. W HEELER, at Milbrook, Hants, has an apple-tree now in his garden in full blossom. The plant generally known by the name of the Aloe Yucca Alifolia, is now in full bloom in the garden of 11r. GEARY, of Newport, Isle of Wight. ACCUMULATED PROFIT. - Mrs. WEBB, Of Crockerhill, in the parish of Fareham, bought a set of geese nineteen years ago the last Michaelmas, of James Draper, a carpenter, of Wickham-gate, which were hatched four years before at Shoot-hill., Burhunt ; one of this set is still in her possession, and has brought seven young ones each year upon an average, and they have, been sold for five shillings a-head one year with another. This will be found to amount to 331. ss. But this is not the whole worth of the goose, for she. now in good condition, and besides has brought seven goslings a-year for many years before she came into the hands of the present proprietor; and if they were sold at the same price, it will give five guineas more to the worth of this productive crea ture, which is now twenty-three yeurs old.
