These chairs are of English carved oak, and of the most exquisite workmanship. They are of considerable height, and their general design and particular ornaments are in the purest Gothic taste. The cushions are of crimson velvet.— ( Windsor Express%) BLUCHER'S Al t. is known that the late Field-Marshal lit,ucitEn had selected a spot between Kriblowitz and Waigwitz to he the place of his interment, over w . hich he had ex pressed a wish that ,the only memorial of his in terment should beia plain stone. .After conside rable search', a'kteaCatiss of granite was foond on the, with side or the mountain Zobten, near Gorkau, out of which a cube of 24 Rhenish feet in breadth, and the same in . beight, was to be cut, in order to be placed over the grave. When the cuffing' had proceeded to about 13 feet deep, it was 'found that the mass of granite was cut through by a layer of.crurnbling clay ; in conse quence of which 'the monument cannot be more than 13 feet in height, besides not being an exact cube. The block is st►ll considerable, and will weigh from 10 t 0.12,000 quintals. For three years, a muster stone-cutter, and 16 assistants, with two men 'to clear . aWay the rubbish, have been daily em . ployed,Jeora-May to Nevem ber, to release the block frotri its position. It now stands, as it were, us a, deep hole, and is support ed solely by the props around and beneath it. The hammer or ckissel were but of little use in shaping this cOlosial block ; powder, of which 6 or 7lbs. were daily used, was found necessary to blast it. The removal of the block is expected to be attended with considerable trouble. The Family of General MOREAU are about to raise, in the cementiy . of Botdeaux,a vault, where are to be d4oSited the Jnortal remains of his Lady, who died in that town, and the heart of .the General; - whieh'had been brought . into France.

GOVERNMENT 7,T ATION Y AND The Report of 'the Select Committee of the house of Com mons, appointed to inquire into the manner in which the print ing and stationery are supplied to the Houses of Lords and Commons, and to the Public Departments in the United King dom, has been printed. This Committee was appointed in the last Session, in consequence of charges of abuses and frauds, chiefly preferred by a man named Henry Constantine .111- nings, stating that Mr. William Ready, the Keeper of the Board-room of the Lords of the Treasury, had been in the a bit of selling stationery,. the property of the King, from the Sta tionery Office, to a very large amount, to Sir IL Wilson, Mr. P. Moore Mr. Hume, and several others. The Commit tee state , that the evidence of Mr. Hume distinctly negatives the fact of Sir H. Wilson and Mr. P. Moore having been so supplied ; that it appears, from the evidence of Mr. Hume, that he was induced to allow Jennings to send him the paper purchased from Ready, for the purpose of establishing unequivocally the existence of the fraud ; and that it appears, with the same view, it had been intended that some of the taper should have been sent to Sir It. Wilson and Mr. P. Moore, to be held in depo s it by them; and that it w a s s e nt by Mr. Jennings to Mr. Hume's house, addressed to them, but was never delivered to them, and they appear_to have been entirely ignorant of the whole matter. The characters of.: these Honourable tientlemen having been thus cleared 'from all imputation, the Committee proceed to no tice some irregularities in the conduct of Ready, in appropriat ing to his own-use more paper than he was entitled t o , un d er the claim of perquisites, for which he has been suspended from his office; and some other improprieties in the Stationery Offic„, which they recommend should be avoided in future. The Com mittee, in Conclusion, say, they think it due to Mr. Hansard, Mr. Strahan,..Mr.. Nichols, and to the other individuals' ern ployed in Parliamentary printing, to state, that nothing tending in any degree to countenance imputations against the characters of these gentlemen, has appeared in the course of the inquiries. • Yesterday, - at three P.M., aCCofdirli; to annual custom, the preliminary ceremony of " knocking down the glove" being dispensed .with, Freedom Eve immediately became Freedom Day.

It is enacted, that every dealer in tea, &c. shall have written or painted over his door, or 'on some eonspicuous part of the shop, or warehouse, in which Ite keeps or exposes tea, &c. for Sale, Dealer in Tea," &c. or 'shallforfeit the sum of Fifty Pounds, and be subject to all other penalties that persOns are liable to who make no entry at all. By the same Act, sec. 22, it is enacted, that every person who shall buy any tea, &c: , of any other person, or any other place than such as have written or painted, ," Dealer in 'fei," &C. as aforesaid, shall forfeit for every such offence the sum of Ten Pounds. And that if the seller (having so disposed of tea, &c. in any room or place, over the door of which Dealer' in Tea, &c. is not written or painted), shall within twenty'dayS give information against the buyer, he shall be exonerated and ex cused from paying the penalties he may have incurriti, arid the buyer be.fined Ten Pounds. The 12 George 3, cap. 4(, recites, that—by the 10 George it is enacted,that " no tea, &c..shall be sold or exposed for sale except in rooms, shops or warehouses, entered for knpfilgibe At same, on pain of forfeiti ng a ll such:tea, c. and treble the:va lue thereot.

PuaLic WHIPPING.—This morning r,t an eirlv. hour a crowd of spectators assembled in the Old Bai:ey to •- witness the public castigation of six individuals, who had been tonvieted for various offences at the Sessions just terminved,' pursuant to their sentences. Precisely at nine o'tletzk., the gttes being thrown open, the Court-yard, in a fbw minutes, was crowded to excess, where this disgraceful punishment was immediately put in execution; and during the undergoing of • which, the several persons roared out most lustily. One - of - them, an old (Arendt?, received upwards Of 150 lashes. • .G LAsuow.— Yesterday Edward 116,1(4 con.: • victed at the late I ireitit Court here of an assault, aggravated' with the inter.; ion.of committing a rape upon the body of a young girl in the town of Greenock, was publicly whipped through the streets of this city, agreeable to his sentence. The' culprit was brought out of the prison under a strong guard of cavalry. At th e j a il h e received twenty - lashes--at the foot of the Stockwell-street twenty.-Lat the foot of Glassforkl: street twenty—arid at the Cross twenty more—in all eighty' ;‘ fetan whence he was conducted to -the prison, and is td' be' transported the country for life. The unhappy man was tied • to the tail of a cart, with the upper part .of his body - com pletely uncovered, a novel spectacle to the citizens of Glam_ gow, anti one which we hope will be a warning to 'young. offenders of every description. His back was very n:u.:11 laces ratt d from the .• flagellation. A very, great crowd attended . his progress, but evinced the most orderly conduct. Neither . . censure nor applause was heard among*: them. We under s!and that Jack Ketch had nearly run rusty on this occaSicini and from his extreme impertinence to the .Magistrates, proceed ing, no doubt, from an idea of his sapc-ior importance, hart ali most merited a little of the discipline adniMistgred by himself to . Hand, before he commenced his labour s , J ac k, a s , ordy looking man, reamed to tic the 'culprit to the cai t, or . carr; a spare cat-o'-nine-tails, alleging. that the former' was nut his duty, and that a substitute ought •to be provided. to carry the latter, or he would ribt be answeiablv to the :o ;sequences. To accommodate-matters; the spare weapon was put into a bag, and slung to the .cart. 'Jades ill-temper on this occasion app: ars to have proceeded from the great offence he took at the judgment of the Court, in conittridding the sentence to .be. put in execution in Glasgow, in :place ' of' Greenock.— If it had been in Greenock, Jack :says, •he . would have been .entitled to ten guineas, whereas 'being inflicted in , Glasgow; where . he has a regular salary, he only reeeivtit half-a-guinea fbr his trouble. In short, he dOes •nit lish such jobs, and considers such sentences as an ituitivaioti upon his usual -. duties, maintaining, that it costs hirn,n to re_ trouble to flog one th a n h ang t en , with pay diminished hi pro portion to the more laborious - efise.
