The BIRMINGHAM A.ticus, with the "good and true," is a pofular periodical.

BERLIN, A uGusr 31.—The King of Prussia set out yesterday from Berlin for Stuttgard ; his Royal Highness the Crown Prince left the day before yester lay, and proceeded front Schwedt to Stettin, where he arrived in the evening. His Majesty the Em peror cf Russia, who intended to leave St. Petersburgh on the 27th, on board the imperial steam-boat Ischora, was expected every hour, and the imperial equipage, which arrived at Schwedt on the 28th, are ready at the landing place to receive his Ma jesty. Up to four o'clock yesterday afternoon the Ischora had not, however, arrived. Their Imperial. Highnesses Prince Wil liam (his Majesty's san), and his consort; Prince and Princess Charles, her Highness the Princess of Leignitz, M.

Ambassador at this Court, who only returned from Bo hemia yesterday, are also gone to Schwedt.. It is supposed that the Emperor of Russia will stop at Schwedt two days with the royal family, and then go to Bohemia to pay a visit to the Em peror of Austria. On the 7th September the King and the royal family will go to Magdeburg to the reviews. The Emperor of Russia is not likely to be more than a month absent from home. It is .proba ble that our King will accompany the Emperor, his sou - in-law, to Bohemia, and that the latter will afterwards be present at the grand reviews near Berlin.

PROGRESS OF MIND IN ENGLAND. If any doubt be entertained of the equivocal progress of mind in England, let the doubter take up the first newspaper that comes to hand, and peruse the advertis- - ing columns of those literary midwives, the publishers. The bulk of modern publications is made up of every va riety of new-invented sectarian theology, the darkest views of the divine dispensations, and of the future des tinies of the human species in the world to come. In this case, "he who peppers the highest is surest to please;" and it is almost impossible " to deal d—mnat ion through the land," up to the mark of popular appetite. Next to this mass of imbecile credulity, or barefaced roguery, come volumes upon volumes of grammars, text book-S, and elementary treatises, on all that is common place—mere apothecary's work, pourings out of many bottles into one, culled without knowledge, and mingled without taste. Then follow reprints of old authors, cut tings up and fritterings of natural science, which, under the guise of novelty, expend the time and money of the public on mere mill-horse tunings in the same dull cir cle. Add to these a few works of effete imagination and of amusement that no longer amuses—fashionable novels out of all fashion, and serious novels that would make a cat laugh—all expressly calculated to shut out inquiry, and to keep intellect in abeyance, and you have the en tire sum and substance of the literary food of to the insatiate appetite for nonsense, of the "most thinking pub lie." The works of Jeremy Bentham are, indeed, advertis ed on the loose pages of the Westminster Review but then it is a French translation, printed in Brussels, for the benefit of continental readers. With this exception, there is scarcely a single work of law, metaphysics, mo rals; or general politics, announced once in a twelve month, that exhibits the slightest pretence to original thinking. The reason is obvious enough: there is no market - for any such commodity ; and if few men have a taste for being stoned to death for their communications to a reluctant public, there are fewer still who will waste their time on investigations, for which they are certain of, being paid neither-in money nor fame. But it is not merely in abstract science that the -British public is shinnefully deficient. Its very amusements are marked atithe corner with imbecility and ignorance.—Athenreum, DREADFUL ACCIDENT ON GREAT SAFFRON-HILL. Friday afternoon, at about a quarter before five o'clock, the inhabitants of Great Saffron-hill were suddenly alarmed by a dreadful noise in the street; and, on run ning out of doors to ascertain what had happened, found that. two houses, Nos. 13 and 14, had fallen in with a tremendous crash, burying in the ruins the mem bers of various families, about ten in number. A poor woman, who had been confined only a few days, and who occupied a lower back-room in No. 13, which portion of the building only miraculously escaped destruction, was, in a few minutes, through the exertions of those assem bled,. together with her infant, rescued from apparently inevitable death, as the walls by which the apartment was surrounded were in a most decayed and tottering condition. At this period an immense number of persons had congregated, and it was with the utmost difficulty that .the ground was sufficiently cleared to enable -the workmen to search for the unfortunate creatures who were missing, the screams of whom on the buildings, giv ing way were piercing and heartrending in the extreme. A stron g body on the G division o f p o li ce was soon o n the spot , headed by superintendent Dixon, when in an incredibly short space.of time the crowd was sufficiently removed tram the dreadful scene to enable the workmen to pursue their labours without interruption. At the imminent risk of his life, policeman M'Carthy, assisted by a gentleman named Hanbury, of Pulteney-street, Pentonville, rushed into the ruins, and in ten minutes after the fall of the buildings succeeded in dragging out a fine boy six years old, who, providentially, had not received the slightest injury. After the lapse of a considerable time, a poor woman named Lannon, mother of the child saved, who occupied a room on the second floor of No. 14, and was about 35 years of age, was dragged frbm beneath an immense mass of timber and rubbish, still breathing, but so dreadfully mutilated as to leave, scarcely any feature discernible; the poor creature was immediately conveyed to St. Bartholomew's Hospital ; but on her road thither breathed her last. The body was then brought back, and carried to a neighbourinF, public-house, where it awaits the coroner's inquest. fwo children were afterwards taken oat of the i uins with scarcely any signs of life, and removed to the hospital. A lodger at No. 13, a few mi nutes before the accident took place, was frightened by the cracking of some part of the building, and -ran terri fied into the street, with the intention of alarming the neighbours, but had no sooner made her escape by the front door than the whole gave way, before she had time -to relate her fears for the safety of the numerous inmates,. the friends' and parents of many of whom were absent from home, pursuing their calling of fruit-selling, &c., at Bartholomew fair. Had the occurrence taken place at any other period, it is more than probable that a great number of human lives would have been sacrificed, as o. 14 was inhabited by nine or ten different families, all of them very poor : the other house was not so nu merously tenanted. It is said that as early as eleven o'clock in the morning an opposite neighbour, who was somewhat alarmed by hearing a noise, as if the stack of chininies had given way, informed the inmates of the cir cumstance, at the same recommending them by every means in his power to leave the premises if they had any regard for their lives. The timely warning was, how ever, unheeded, and thus several, it is much to be feared, have met with a shocking death. At the period when our reporter left the spot, the workmen, whose numbers had increased, and who were indefatigable in their e:zer lions, had not been fortunate enou L -;11 to meet with a re ward for their labours, in the satisfaction of finding the bodies of any more of the poor creatures, who, after the length of time which had elapsed from the hour when the accident took place, it was not reasonable to imagine would be dug out with any signs of life. It is said that the infant child of one o - f the lodgers, ivhich- was in its cradle, was among those who could not be found. At ten o'clock no more bodies had been discovered. It is a lamentable fact that the houses have been for a limn. while past considered - to be in a dangerous condition, and e that the neighbouring inhabitants have long dreaded the deplorable event winch has at length occurred. A great crowd is still congregated near the spot, and the workmen are pursuing their labours with all ponsible alacrity. Too much praise cannot be bestowed on the extraordinary exertions made at the melancholy scene. It is a miraculous circumstance, that in a place so densely populated as Saffron-hill, the lives of one or more casual passers-by should not have been sacrificed, considering that the buildings almost instantaneously fell is an im mense muss into the street, completely covering the road. Quarter past 10.—It has been ascertained that a child is the only one now missing, and the workmen have dis continued' their labours for the night. TilE LATE STORM. ( From the Cambridge Chronicle.) A general meeting of the Eau Brink Commissioners was held at. March, on Friday last, the Rev. Algereon Peyton i n th e chair. The state of * the Ouze Banks was brought under con sideration, and an order made, directing an application to the Bank Commissioners to execute the repairs provided fur by the last Eari Brink Act. Directions were also given for working the dregging eugihe in excavating the shoals in the river below 'vetiver sluice, - 'and sortie other business of minor importance was disposed of. The alarm felt by the Eau Brink Commissioners for the security of the Ouze Banks, as slated above, appears unhappily to have been ton well founded, for within twelve hours ot the adjournment of the meeting no less than three breaches took place on the left bank of the river, between Salter's lode and the Tong's sluice. One of them was occasioned by the insecure manner in which a sluice recently erected for the draining of l)ownham Fen was executed. The sluice was swept away by the force of the tide, and a breach made in the bank to the width of forty feet, by which nearly 3000 acres of valuable land have been inundated. Some live cattle, and many hundreds of acres of croeping, consisting of oats, beans, and potat oes , h ave been destroyed. The damage altogether is estimated at 15000. During the storm of Saturday last one of the small pinnacles e on the west end of Peterb oro ukh cathedral w as bl own d own. INUNDATION 05 DowNriAsr FEN.—In consequence of the tremendous gale from the northwest on Saturday last, and an unusual strong spring tide, the sluice and tunnel on the west • bank of the river Ooze, very recently laid down about midway between Downham and Stow bridges, were blown up about eight o'clock that evening. The breach was not less than thirty feet in width, and such wasehe immense body and impetuosity • of the water, that in the short space of a few hours upwards of fifteen hundred acres of land (out. of a district of about from sixteen to seventeen hundred acres) were laid under water, in deed nearly the whole of Downham Fen is at this time deeply inundated. Fortunately, the greater part of the harvest had been got in, but still many acres of standing corn are irrecover ably lost, and many head of cattl e d rowne d. A sma ll f arm - i n the fats, in the occupation of a Mr. Page, is entirely insulated by not less than three feet water. Two other breaches of banks of the said river (although of minor importance compered to the former) happened the same night between Downham bridge and Sa'iter c s lode, which overflowed the turnpike road, and ren dered it fur two or three days impassable ; by which inundation. Mr. James Houghton, of Downham market, farmer, had a va luable mare drowned in the stable. The damage sustained by this lamentable event has not yet been ascertained, but it is much to be feared that it is to a considerable extent; nor is there any prospect that the water can be gut off beiore the en suing spring. St•FFoLK.—The tremendous hurricane of Saturday and Sun day was sadly destructive to the hopes of the gardeners. Mr. Steed, of Bury, lost not less than titteen sacks of walnuts. The quantity of apples blown down was immense; in tact the standard fruit is almost all lost. A tine walnut-tree in a field belonging to Sir T. Cullum, at the back of Northgate-street, was torn up by the roots; and the number of trees blown down in the mea dows and neighbouring parks was immense. Mr. Mill er , car penter, of Garland-street, had a chimney blown down, and the destruction of tiles was prodigious. But p er h aps the most sin gular freak of wind that ever we heard of, was that one of the hands of the church clock on the Saxon Tower was carried away. HUNTINGDON, Sept. 6.—The tremendously high wind of Sa turday last has done considerable damage to the gardens and fruit-trees in this town and neighbourhood, and the market gar deners will sustain 'a heavy loss. A tree was blown down in Hinchingorook park, which fell across the road, and obstructed the passage for some time. During the whole of the day the market people were unable to put up their stalls on the hill, and OLT) BAILEY sEssrox.s. BIG A mt.—John James Fraser,otherwise John Fraser, was indicted for marrying Mary Ann Bliss, his wife Sarah being at that time living. Mr. Parker, on behalf of the prisoner, moved the Court, on his affidavit, that the trial should be postponed . until Monday, as two material witnesses for his defence had to come from a distant part of Kent. Charles Knight, the husband of Mrs. Bliss's sister, produced a certificate to prove, beyond his oral testimony, that the prisoner married the prosecutrix at St. George's, Southwark, on the 21st of December, 1831. Another certificate was put in to prove that he was married to Sarah, his wife, at Queenborough, in Kent, on the 25th of No vember in the preceding year. In order to substantiate the latter marriage, a grotesque old lady was called t o p rove th a t s h e ac t e d as braierna4at the time of its solemnization. ' By Mr. Doane.—She had often acted in that capacity. Is not styled the bridemaid-general of the parish : - she is too old for that. (Laughter.) She would give up her " business" for the future. She would never do so again, as it had come to this. (A laugh.) Mary Ann Bliss, a respectable-looking middle-aged woman, stated that she had been married to the Prisoner on the day named. He c a ll e d hi mse lf " John Fraser," and at his request she signed the marriage-book " Mary Bliss," and left out Ann," the intermediate name. She was at the time a widow with five children round her, and she had a comfortable shop, but she was now unable to tell what had become of half of her property; she was ruined; she never induced the prisoner to marry her by telling hi m that she was pr eg n a nt by him. By the Court.—The prisoner said that he was a widower with one child; he had no property except half-a-crown a-day pen sion allowed by government. The prisoner made a very long and irrelevant defence, con sisting of a tirade of accusations against his wives, one of whom he charged with having attempted to persuade him to procure a medicine to cause abortion. The Court told hint that his defence was only calculated to prejudice his case, but he must take the consequences ofthe line of conduct which he had adopted. Thos. Chalmers was called to speak to the prisoner's character. Mr. Serjeaut Arabia summed up the evidence, and the jury immediately-pronounced the prisoner guilty. The learned Judge told the prisoner that he would inevitably be sent out of the country. Prisoner.—lt's a hard case; I hope your lordihip will consider. Judge.—Depend upon it I shalt not interfere in your favour. l'on say it's a hard case, and so it is upon the poor widows you have married and defrauded. The grand jury came into court at half-past six o'clock, and presented their bills, one of which was a bill found against, Thomas Cox Savory, the silversmith, for a mi,demeanour. The foreman complained of the neglect of public officers coming forward to give their evidence (alluding to the Mint.) It was explained that Mr. Field, the inspector, was in attend ance at the Middlesex Session Court, to give evidence before.the county grand inquest. LONDO.I - POLICE REPORT. MANSION HOUSE. A gentleman, named Pearce, was brought up, charged with having been drunk on the preceding night. The - Lord Mayor.—l understand, Mr. Pearce, you have been drunk—very drunk, Mr. Pearce: (A laugh.) Defendant.—No, my lord, not so drunk. I hope your lord ship will be so good as to let me go, as it is very disagreeable to me to he here (looking with a curled nose at his neighbours) — very disagreeable, upon my word. The Lord Mayor.—Oh, Mr. Pearce, you didn't care in the midst of your enjoyments, in tumbling about the streets, how disagreeable you made yourself to other people. Defendant.—l hope, my lord, you will consider my situation. I wish to lo out of this as soon as possible. The Lord Mayor.—Pray what are you, Mr. Pearce? (Laughter.) Defendaut.—Why, not exactly any thing, my lord. The Lord :flavor.—You mean, I suppose, that you are a man of substance without toiling for it—a gentleman. Defendant.—l have some property. Officer.—Yes, my lord, he is a man of property. I found a watch and some silver in his pockets when I took him to the station-house. Defendant.—l hope that is sufficient, my lord. I really, my lord, ant very uncomfortable. (One of the paupers began to scratch his head, and shuffle hitnsell about in his clothes.) Will your lordship send me out of this place ? I do not intend to. stay in this poor country. The Lord Mayor —Oh ! Pray may I ask where you intend tai, go ? To Scotland ? (Great laughter.) Defendant.—To America, my lord. The Lord Mavor.—Do you belong to a Temperance Society ? Defendant.—No, myy lord. The Lord Mayor.—l'm sorry for that, for there are many Temperance Societies there, and if you happened to be a mem ber of one of ours, you might show them an improvement upon their system. (Laughter.)] Defendant.—My lord, if you let me go, I'll do anything you desire. _ lhe Lord Mayor.—Then pay ss. for being drunk, and mind how you take your glass again, or you'll get in amongst the same kind of companions. The defendant then went away shaking his clothes. On - Friday Mr. Staniland, the solicitor, applied to the Lord Mayor to back a warrant issued by the magistrates of the coun ty of Kent for the apprehension of two men, named Ellison and South, for robbing the oyster beds in the manor of the Hon. Miss Wvkeham. The accused were, he stated, now en gaged in selling the oysters at Billingsgate at 7s. a hundred, although they were worth 12s. Ten of the fishermen, of whom the persons named in the warrant were the ringleaders,. had been committed to Maidstone gaol by the magistrates of the county for similar depredations, and the plunder had been kept up in the most extraordinary manner, a fleetactually consisting or one. hundred men being daily employed in stripping the beds, to the ruin of the unfortunate man who rented them of the lady of the manor. All the rest of the beds within the manor were protected by the injunction of the Lord Chancellor, but an in junction had not been applied for in the present instance on account of the expense. In the mean time the lessee's pro perty was hourly disappearing. After some hesitation the Lord Mayor backed the warrant, but expressed great regret that his duty compelled him to do so. QUEEN-SQUARE. Two men, apparently in a state of great destitution, named J. Warren and J. Hodges, were brought up in custody by a 'M ike-constable of the T division, and placed at the bar )before Mr. White, charged with sleeping uudor a hay-rick at Ken sington, and having uo place of abode. Mr. White asked - the constablo what the prisoners said when he apprehended them. The constable replied• that they said they had been in Don Pedru's service, and were completely destitute.. Mr. White--1 know nothing whateverof Don Pedro's service. Constable—That is what they told me, your Worship. Mr. White (to the men)—\W here do you come from ? The defendants said that they had come from Devonport. Mr. White—And what brought you here ? Defendant—We walked up to London in the hope of getting employment; we have both been in the service of Don Pedro, and were landed at Plymouth a short time ago. Mr. White—What business had you to enter into Don Pe dro's Service, breaking the laws of your country? The defendants said they thought they had a right to enter any service when they were starving and could get no em ployment. 111 r. White-- 7 -You were Rat& to imprisonment at the time you entered into Don Pedro's service. What business have you to interfere with the affairs of Spain or Portugal, or any other fo reign nation ? Defendant—We were only trying to get our living. Mr. White—Why can't you mind your own business at home, and not interfere with the quarrels of other nations, and leave other persons to settle their own disputes ? I shall send you both for one month to the House of Correction, and when you come out of prison I recommend you to get back to your own parish. EGYPT. The Jcurnal of Sinyhza states that Mehemet Mi has seized all the idocha offeent Cairo destined for the European merchants at Alexandi ia, and ordered it to be sent to his own stokes, not withstanding the remonstrances of the several Consuls. The shops of the money brokers were also closed, with orders not to open them on pain of death. - STATIONERY JOB.-ELEGANT EXTRACTS. Q. 21G. Do you (Church) recollect Sir John Ke y —whethor a contractor or otherwise—sending in a parcel of tine writing demy paper, supposed to be twenty quires to the ream, when in reality there were but eighteen ? —I recollect the fact of Sir John Key—whether it was at the time that he himself was a contractor or whether his brother was the contractor, but it was at least three or four years ago—sending in some paper which appeared to me to be so mixed up with inferior paper of another descrip tion, for the purpose of passing examination, that I thought it necessary to represent the case in very strong terms to Sir John Key himself. 2.57. Were there any attempts ever made on the part of Sir John Key to defraud the Stationery-office think in the first contract which he had with us to a large amount, there were several attempts made to pass paper which, as I thought, he must have known to begunequal in quality to the sample. 259. Did you, therefore, feel it your duty to be more vigilant with regard to the supplies uf paper he furnished than with re gard to other contractors felt it my duty to be so vigilant that on most occasions when a supply of any magnitude came in from him I went into the warehouse myself and inspected it. 265. You said that Sir John Key's mail came to rectify one fault and made another. Do you recollect what it was he did ? As far as I recollect the defect of this delivery of paper was in quantity, and it became necessary to make up this deficiency. If I recollect rightly, in the first instance there were two quires in each ream less than there ought to have been, so that we should have lost in number of quires but not in weight, fur the de scription of paper sent in was heavier than it ought to have been. The person scut by Sir John Key to supply the quires which were deficient, in the course of the operation contrived appa rently, to supply the defective quires; but this he effected by ab stracting from each quire a sufficient number of sheets to make up the quires which were wanting. 294. After that attempt suspicion remained on your mind ? Yes, till I thought Sir John Key was quite convinced that it would be better to execute his contract in a straightforward way. N.B. Sir John Key has not resigned his once of a Justice ;j . the Peace. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. (Written expressly for the Liverpool Standard.) Since our last one of the most important alterations in the Leger betting has taken place than any during the present sea son. Belshazzar, to whom we alluded on Friday as caving been reported amiss or not likely to go, has fallen sadly into the back ground. From the high situation of second favourite, which he held at 51 to I, he has gone to 20 to 1, and Rockingham now stands second in command to Mulev Moloch. The reason of the change we understand is that he was last week tried with Rockingham and found wanting, the latter having beaten him easily. This fact was known to a select few in Manchester the whole week, but the secret was scarcely kept by the parties who laid out in the mean time several thousands against him; at odds varying from Bto2o to 1. It does not appear to have reached London last Thursday as tire quotation at Tattersall's was 1.; : i to 1 agst him. There is no material alteration in the odds upon any of the rest of the horses, but it is anticipated that Muley will be shaken before the event comes off; if su nothing can keep Rockingham from becoming first favourite. The St. Leger will be run for this day week, (Tuesday.) All our Lancashire sportsmen, of course, attend, and the interest excited appears to he greater than we recollect in former wars. It is probable that about fourteen will start. The following arc the latest state of the odds to 1 agst Mulev Muloch, ( t) ; 6 to 1 agst Rocking 7 ham ; 20 to 1 agst Belshazzar, ( o ff ere d) ; 10 t o l ags t M a rpessa, (t) ; 11 to 1 agst Anne, (t); 12 to 1 agst Mussunnan, (t); 15 to 1 agst Revenge, (t) ; 16 to 1 agst The Mole, (t) ; 20 to 1 agst Tutor, (1); 20 to I agst Jack Faucett, ( t.) Jack Faucett, Pickpocket, and Birdeatcher passed through MancheSter en route to •Doncaster on Friday evening. WARWICK RACES (COncluded.)—The Wednesday's Sweep stakes of 2u says. each, for two-vears-olds, was won by Sir Geo. Gerard's, beating Donald, Mhd Tom, and four others. The Avon Stakes, of 50 sues. each, h. ft., for three-year-olds, , were won by Uncle Toby, beating b. c. by Sir Gray' eight paid. The Warwick Cup, value 100 guineas, by subscription of 10 sins. each, the surplus to be paid iu specie, was won by Lord Craven's br. c. Ludlow, beating b. g. Liston and Mr. Itubinsou's Man chester. Betting, 2tol on Liston, 3to 1 apt Manchester, 5 to 1 agst the winner. A Plate of 1:50, given by the members of the borough, for maiden horses, &c., that never won, was won by ch. Repentance, beating Peas, Catlap, and Basirics. The Sweep of 10 sovs. each, for horses, &c. not thorough bred, two mile heats, was won by b. f. by Cotton, beating two others. The ThursdaN's running commenced with the Sweepstakes of 10 sins. each, for three-year-olds, which were won by Uncle Toby, beating Tuft, by Whisker, and Sir Gray. The King's Plate, of 100 guineas value, was won by Diana, beating, Windcliffe, Swing, and Tarantella. The Town Plate, of i:56, was won by ri pme , s b. g. Harry, beating Chester and thiee others. The above concluded these popular and interesting races, the result of which were any thing out satisfactory to the knowing ones, who were greatly taken in in the conte s t f o r th e Guy Stakes, the Leamington, and the Cup, for the former-Sir Robert was backed at evens, the winner being scarcely thou g ht o f, and for the Leanoin,gton, and Swing were the favourites, and u!d Ludlow marching off with the Cup, against Liston and Man chester was considered a matter of great chance and astonish ment. '1 following horses were backed at Warwick last Thursday for the Leger at the prices quoted :—LI-% to 1 against Muley Moloch, (t); 6 to 1 agst Rockingham, (t); 13 to 1 agst Belshazzar, (offered); 12 to I agst Marpessa, (t) ; 12 to 1 agst Mussulman, (t) ; 18 to 1 agst l{ecenge, (t). • The King has been pleased to grant to Charles Dicconson, Esq., (heretofore Charles Eccleston,) third, but now only sur viving son of Thomas Eccleston, late of Scarisbrick, in the coutuy paiatine of Lancaster, Esq., deceased. his royal license and permission that he and his issue may take and use the sur name and arms of Scarisbrick onlv.—Friday's Gazette. How To wont( A MIRACLE.—Some years ago, a woman called Jeminia Wilson announced hersell•as the SaYiour of the world, and attracted a few followers somewhat more mad than herself.

William Hayden was brought up yesterday for final examin ation before Mr. Alderman Brown, charged with forging a check on Messrs. Praed, the bankers, for :OW. Mr. Flower conducted the prosecution, and called Mr. Davis, a newspaper vender in Bfoad-street, St. Giles's, who stated that the prisoner had lived in his service about four years and a half, boarding and lodging M the house, and receiv ing ss. per•week. On the 15th of June he gave the prisoner his banking-book to carry to Messrs. Praed, in order that it Might be made up, and by referring to - this the prisoner ac quired the knowledge that there was a considerable balance in his favour. The prisoner delivered the book correctly, and on the following day (Sunday) he went out to see his friends. He did not return at night as usual, but this circumstance ex cited no suspicion. Being still absent on Wednesday morning, witness became alarmed, and sent to the banker's for his book, when he discovered that the prisoner had forged a cheek for .C3OO, which had been cashed on the Monday. It purported to be drawn in favour of W. Parker, and was' dated the 15th of June. The blank had been extracted from witness's check book, but he did not know what opportunity the prisoner had seized to cut it out. Ile was positive it was written by the prisoner. Mr. Alderman Brown asked if the imitation was good. Mr. Davis said it was. Indeed, if the imitation of his signa ture had not been very, close, the bankers would have detected the forgery. Some weeks etre:wards he received intelligence that the prisoner had been apprehended at Cork, where he bad assumed the name of Smith. Mr. Mill, who attended for the prisoner, asked if' Mr. Davis had not authorised the prisoner to draw a check? Mr. Davis replied "Never." Mr. 'iomalin, from Messrs. Praed's, proved the payment of the check on the 17th. He could not iuentify the pristine' as the party who presented it. Mr. , 'lower pressed the magistrate to remand the prisoner again tor a iveek, by which time he expected to hear .of the ap prehension of the utterer of the check, who was known. Mr. Hill, on the other hand, prayed that the prisoner (who made no defence) might be now disposed of. Mr. Alderman Brown said if the . prisoner objected to be remanded, he was bound to take notice of it. •As the charge had been completely made out, there was in fact no ground for postponing the commitment. Nothing justified remanding a prisoner but the prospect of aiding the ends of justice; but here there was a possibility of defeating the ends of justice, supposing a witness to die. .ihe prisoner was accordingly committed for trial. RIGHTS OF .PROPERTY. We copy the following letter from Felix Farley's Bridol Journal : 7 mu. 29 day, 1833. "Respected Friend,--The following extracts are from a His tory of the 'fimes of the Great Rebellion, which, as thou well knowest, ended in beheading the monarch, and overturning the English Constitution in Church and State. The Jamaica planters, whose petition to be heard by counsel at the bar of the house was recently so contumeliously rejected, may perceive how in a reformed and a rebellious Pat liament the rights of pro perty are equally set at nought.

Thai Mu-% hammed, son of Abdoolah Hushmee, of the Kateist tribes ° 1 Mecca and Medina, was a prophet sent by God, is attested bI his miracles ; for whoever achieves such is anquestionablY: " prophet. Front these we deduce the unavoidable conclusio!2, therefor that Mohammed is the prophet of God. Hillis& claimed the recognition of this, and Lo one denied it or tlr reality of his miracles, which succeeded each other in a reent r series. Their reality was no more doubted than that of 1-0 1 " stantinople, London, and Abyssinia, of that of Ilatim, oostinn, and Isfaudiar. The proofs by which their existence becomes established are essentially the same as those ob which the milli cies and prophetic chara c ter of Muhainnied rest. 2ndlY. Tha t the Koran is from the mouth of God, i s as littl e to b e doubted as that the Old and New Testaments and the prophecies Fro. - ceed from Into ; fur no one can, deny that the, composition of the Koran is without a parallel, and the past an 4 quturc folded in it could only be flout God. The Jews .and trans opposed to its divine origin, though skilled in its lan guage, were unable to produce even one*solitary verse similarly perfect. Indeed, up to this date, A.ll. 1215, no Arabian, Persian, no inhabitant of Christendom, of India, or nt Scind, no human or super-h uman b e i ng ( , ), ha I produced a composition so . perfect and surpassing. And' thirdly, the. divine mission is proved in numerous cliapttr s and verses of this Work, which I ant ready to adduce. Moreover , many attributes belonged to the Prophet which uone_else. pl°' ducea. His bodily strength was greatly superior to that ofother .• men; so were his forbearance, liberality, wisdom, and trust in - God, his truth, honesty, the fulfilment of promises, and beneo' cence, his comprehension, capacity, justice, and compassion, his • comeliness of feature and complexion, fragrance of person, do votion to God, austerity and•strict observance of religious rites , with divers oth er sur p ass i ng i qua liti es . H e t oo proc laimed Goo,_s unity, and that he had neither partner n or equa l, th a t rnei' should first pray and give alms in his name—he said to the poor, to relatives, to the distressed, and to holy devotees, observejn'' lice one towards another, abstain from murder, fornicatitn , swearing, and theft, chicanery and deceit, from falsehood, brel.ch of promise, and the love of this world. If exposed to tvranor, he commanded us to forgive the tyrant, to propitiate God by the sacrifice of animals, amid to observe hospitality. Whosoever ei" hibits these and such like attributes must be indeed a prophet . For instance, a certain person arriving in a city says, " I anti a physician." "If so," reply the inhabitants, "write us a book for the sick, and point out their remedies." Ile dues all this.- - Flis book resembles those of antecedent physicians; thousands are cured by its means and by its study. Many physician s • arc produced, all successful in curing. Should any of the citizens say, "This is no physician," the world would pronounce them to be ignorant fools; for, w ere any one t o d eny that , Hippoerates, - Galen, Socrates, and Avicenna were ph.ysicians , he would be looked upon as contemptible and mad. The proof s of their truth are not stronger than those regarding our prophe t ' ,Again, were any one to d en y th a t th e E as t I n di a C om pany krnies in Hindostan, would lie not be considered as ignorant and Insane? Even so must be considered that person who denlo , "Siuhammecl to have been a prophet. • Our well-established re ligion prevails in many countries and cities, and is professe d by'Manfus, Mulvees, le ar n e d a n d h o ly men i n A ra bi a, T oor un, Persia, Turkey, Khoorasau, India, Scind, Bhookara, Abyssi" nia, and the Mu rah, and many souls have, throtigh its mean s. been blessed and received forgiveness of theiri sins. So many learnetiind transcendent men appear not in support of abi other cret4l; nor do so many . valuable books, traditions, cony mentaries, 'and proofs, concur in establishing any other religion whatsoever. Should a few blind men assert that the sot :1 0 not risen, beeause they have not seen hint, would any one place, • reliance on th e i r wor d? N o; l e t th e i r bli n d ness b e cure d , a nd the sun becomes visible. Our religion is no less clear than hi' light. The words of our prophet are acknowledged as true - "," why then doubt o f hi s ascen t t o an d return f rom h eav en ? Antecedent prophets foretold his corning upon earth.

Wh at proofs,. l'` me ask, have you that Jesus was the Son of God ? it' wally works it is stated that this implies merely his propin' gully to and approach by God? is Jest* I Wouldiek, of the same nature as God ? If he he, th e n c a n ho be uo other than God. But it is acknowledged that God existed front eternity , and was not produced or born; - now Jesus was born.

Whether their is Jesus born—of God, the Holy Ghost, or the Virgin Mao • If Jesus was not of the same nature as God, how could be It: the son of God ? Again, was Jesus the property ur not of Gad If If the property, he could.not be the son, these two being dI" tinet and different. Did Jesus necessarily proceed from God d r ,. not? If necessarily, then was God subject to time necessity 0 , 1 appearing upon earth ; but to him nece s sity appli es no t. if Jesus necessarily came, did he so for his own or God's glen • and perfection ?if God's, then was God imperfect, and to hint imperfection cleaves not. If for his own perfection, then %cal Jesus imperfect. If Jesus was born, as you say, of the Buhl Spirit, and the meaning of Holy Spirit tie Jesus, then was is:, born of himself. If Jesus was born of Gabriel, then was Dr" the son of that angel, and not of Mary or God.. If Jesus WO to God as life to man's body, as you declare, then must he W e. been God himself. Finally, which, proof have you that Jesus i ; the last of the prophets ? The above is from the Grand Mullah of Delhi.
