Vortrp. AN INSCRIPTION ON AN ANCIENT MONUMENT IN ST. SAVIOUR'S CHURCH, SOUTHWARK, Like to the damask rose, you see ; Or like the blossom on the tree ; Or like the dainty flower of May ; Or like the morning of the day ; Or like the sun, or like , the shade ; Or like the gourd which Jonas had ; Even so is man !—whose thread is spun, Drawn out and cut ; and so is done. The rose withers, the blossom blasteth ; The flower fades, the morning hasteth ; The sun setts, the shadow flies ; The gourd consumes, and Maxi he dies ! THE WORLD'S PITY. The pity OT the world ? A mourning smile ! A few smooth interjections, interspersed With a few honied words—a seeming depth Of feeling in a sorrowful tone. An eye That looks with an inverted scan. An ear That loiters with a plausive, passive, bend : Appearing to receive the muff 'rers plaint,— Without a tear of sympathetic birth, — Without a sigh, from sweet Compassion's cell : A sudden pause !—a thought; a promise ;—pres.s Departure with an undefined excuse, Yielding no comfort to a suppliant's claims : Plunged in. the vortex, bent on sordid gain, Omitting Pity's ill requited lot, And happy in forgetting Misery's plight. VALYCZ.LTZLIS. Though all churches in the world have, and ever had, forms of prayer, yet none was ever blessed with so comprehensive, so exact, and so inoffensive a composure as ours; which is so ju diciously contrived, that the wisest may exercise at once their knowledge and devotion ; and yet so plain, that the most igno rant may pray . with understanding ; so full, that nothing is omitted which is fit to be asked 'in public; and so particular, that it compriseth most things which we would ask in private. Its doctrine is, pure and primitive : its ceremonies so few and innocent that most of the Christian world agree in them ; its method is exact and natural; its language significant and per spicuous, most of the words and phrases being taken out of the holy scriptures, and the rest being the expresSions of the first and purest ages; so that whoever takes exception at these, must quarrel with the language of the Holy Ghost, and fall out with the church in her purest innocence ; and, in the opinion of thninost impartial and excellent Grotius, (who was no member of, .nor had any obligation to this church,) the English liturgy comes so near to tina primitive pattern, that none of the re formed churches can compare with it. And if anything exter nal be needful to recommend that which is so glorious within, we may add that the compliers were (most of them) men of great piety and learning, and (several of them) either martyrs or confessors, upon the restitution of Popery ; which, as it de clares their piety,. so cloth the judicious digesting of - these prayers evidence their learning; for therein a scholar may discern close logic, pleasing rhetoric, pure divinity, and the very marrow of the ancient doctrine and ; and yet all made so familiar, that the unlearned may safely say, Amen! Lastly, all these excellencies have obtained that universal re putation which these prayers enjoy in all the world ; so that they are most deservedly admired by the eastern churches, and had in great esteein by the most eminent Protestants beyond sea, who are the most impartial judges that can be desired. In short, this liturgy is honoured by all but the Humanists, whose interests it opposeth, and the Dissenters whose prejudices will not let them see its lustre. Whence it is that they call that which the Papists hate, because it is Protestant, superstitious and Popish.—Dr. Comber, on the Church Liturgy. • IRISII CIRCUNILOCUTION.—Observing one day an unusual commotion in the streets of Derry, 1 inquired of a bystander the reason; and he, with a mellifluous brogue, replied in the following, metaphorical manner :—" The reason, sir? Why, ydu see that Justice and little Larry O'Hone, the carpenter, have been putting up a picture-frame at the end of the strate yonder, and thiy are going to hang one o(Adam's copies in it." What's that ?—"Why, poor Murdock O'Donnel." Oh, there's a man to be hung ?—" Do they put up a gallows for anv other purpose?"—What's his offence ?—" No offence, your ii . onour; it was only a liberty he took." Well, what was the liberty ? " Why, you see, sir, pool Murdock was in delicate health, and his physician advised that he should take exercise on horseback, and so, having no horse of his own, he borrowed one from Squire Doyle's paddock; and no sooner was lie on its showl ders, than the Devil put it into the cracker's head to go over to Kellogreen cattlefair, where he had a good many acquaintances; and wnen he was got there, Murdock spied a friend at the door of a shebeen house, and left the animal grazing outside, whilst he went in to have a thimbleful of whiskey; and then, you see, they got frisky, and had another, and another, till poor Mur dock went to siape on the birch; and when lie wouke up, he found the cracher gone, and his pocket stuffed full with a big lump of money." In short, said I, you mean to say he has been horse-stealing?---" Why, sir," he replied, stammering and scratching his head, " they call it so in Eaagland."—Bernard's Retrospectitms. RECEIPT TO MAKE AJACOBIN.—( From an American Paper.)— Take the herbs of hypocrisy, and the roots of ambition, six ounces, and two ounces of pride and vain glory; bruise them in the mortar of contention and discord; boil them over the lire of sedition, until vou see the scum of falsehood swim on the top ; strain it througfi the cloth of rebellion, put it in the bot tle of envy, and stop it close with the cork of malice; make it-into the pills of conspiracy, of which take two when going to bed. .1 - hey will set the blood in a state of fermentation, and you will find a comfortable relaxation iu cursing the President of the United States,. and ali others of the legislative. body, except those of your own stamp. It will take such an effect that you will think of nothing but to cheat and slander your neighbour—to deny the Christian religion—to establish Deism, curse Bishops, behead Kings, and set up knaves and convicts to rule the nation.—By an eminent Political Doctor. CONFESSION OF AN IRISH PEASANT.—Luke M'Geoghan being at confession ; owned among other things that he had stolen a pig from Tim Carrot. Tne priest told him he must make jestitution; Luke couldn't—how could he, when he had eaten it long ago ? Then he must give Tim one of his own. No; Luke didn't like that—it wouldn't satisfy his conscience— it wouldn't be the downright identical pig he stole. Well, the. prriest said, if he wouldn't he'd rue it, for that the corpus delictuni, im' s . pig, would he brought forward against him at the final reckoning. "You don't mane that, father?" "Indeed but the father did." " And may be Tim himself will bOthere too ?" "Most certainly." " Och, then, why bother about the trifle this side the grave? If Tim's there, and the pig's there, sure I can make restitution to him then, you know." ART OF PRINTING.—A monument is about to be erected, by subscription, in honour of Guttenberg, the inventor of the art of printing, in the square which bears his name at Mentz, his native town. His invention was tried at'Strasburg in the year 1436, and the first work he printed was published at Mentz in 1410, so that in three more years four centuries will have elapsed since this great discovery was made. MARCH OF REFINEMENT.—A Quaker lady was the other day. told by her servant, a buxom wench of 20, that she was deter mined upon leaving her "sitiwation." . "For what reason wilt thou leave me ?" asked her astonished mistress. " Why, mum, cos your voshing gives me the spavins in my testaments, and I have no time for my epistolatory correspondence!" Leave granted to leave. As a party of seamen were walking up Point-street, Ports-. mouth, rather elated with liquor, a bull which had escaped from the King's slaughter-house, came running towards the jolly tars with his tail erect in the air, when all the - men jumped out of his way except one, and he being an immense sturdy fellow,. stood in the street directly in the way of the bull,. and hailed him in the following words:—"Bull, ahoy ! Buil, ahoy! I cry. Drop your peak, and put your helm a starboard,- or you'll run aboard of me ?" The buil, continuing his course, came in contact with Jack, and capsized him; but, Jack not being intimidated, sprung from the ground,' and shakin g his clothes, - very good-naturedly observed to the bull, "Oh, you lubberly beast, I told you how it would be." AN EXTEMPORE BULLET.—A Portuguese soldier, being sur rounded by• the enemy, and having no ball to charge his musket, pulled' out one of his teeth., and with it supplied the place of a bullet. —l:This hero ought .to have had the name of _ben-tams given him.] ST. LEON :ice's or SKA.—A desperate engagement took place on Sunday night; in what are called the Darks, near the blar tellO Tower,. No. 51, between the smugglers and the Coast Guard, which it is much feared, ended in loss of life, though no bodies have been round or pristine's taken. The boat which contained the spirits, and woien was unsuccessful in making a ending, cleared off.—Brivitton Gaze tie. THE LIVERPOOL STANDAIi,b. TTEr. LONDON PEZESS. (FROM THE STANDARD OF WEDNESDAY.) The most important amongst the many momentous in cidents of last night's proceedings in parliament is be yond doubt the case of Elizabeth Robinson. This wo man has been summoned before a committee of " the re formed House of Commons," which committee has not been appointed by legal warrant,—if it has, let us hear the statute, or see the precedent. This committee, moreover, is convened for an object not legally within the province of any single branch of the legislature, and which as far as the silence of a code can speak, is an ille gal' object. . Elizabeth Robinson has been summoned be fore this committee, and, up to a certain point, has been, it is confessed, a willing witness ; but being commanded to tell a story of £3 16s. at some time offered and re ceived, she declined supplying this suggested skeleton of evidence, with the names of giver and receiver : assign ing fear of injury as the cause of her reluctance. She was last night brought before the house for this contu macy, and threatened, not very 'obscurely, with punish naentas the consequence of her persevering in it. - We have already said that the appointment of the Li verpool Committee is a very alarming usurpation upon the rights of the people—an usurpation which, whatever may, be the merits of the Liverpool electors, must, by its example, take away all security from the exercises of civil rights, and destroy all confidence amongst men; and to this opinion, which we repeat, we do not scruple to add, Chet if Elizabeth Robinson be punished for refusing to aid in this anomalous persecution, her punishment will be an act of most unconstitutional tyranny. Let the peo ple of England look to it in' time ; let them remember what a reformed House of Commons hus done before. Their ancestors felt nearly two centuries ago the effect of exchanging King Log for King Stork—and it is not impossible, that if they are not vigilant and energetic, the men of this generation may feel the effect of a like commutation of rulers. (FROM BELL'S WEEKLY MESSENGER.) It appears by the Parliamentary papers of 1818 (vol. xviii. p. 215,) that the whole tithe paid to the clergy, when wheat was £6 Bs. per quarter, was £1,722,448 1 ls. 4d. The whole paid to them when wheat was £3 19s. 2d. (the price of the year 1818), was £1,426,627 18s. °id. or less than one million and a half. The whole tithe now paid to the clergy when wheat is £2 12s. 2d. per quarter, is £951,085 2s. or not quite one million. In addition to this, the clergy have, in some parishes, land instead of tithe, under inclosure acts. (Lord's Corn Report, 1814.) Now it is quite certain that land has not been given in lieu of all the tithes in any thing like half these cases. But allow half, and what will be the result ? There are 10,693 parishes in England and Wales : this will leave about 9000 with tithes. Then, if we divide the tithes equally, each parish clergyman would have had £l9l 7s. 71d. a-year, when wheat was £6 Bs. W quar ter, and £l5B His. 3-I,d. a-year, when it was £3 19s. 2d. W quarter, and now, at the present price of wheat, viz. £2 12s. 2d. W quarter, each parish clergyman would have an income of about £lOO a-year. Now to get the whole income of the parish clergy, we must add their incomes in those parishes where commu tations have taken place. One with another, these pa rishes will be of the same size with the others, and the incomes about the same. Then, when the corn was at £6 Bs. Od. W quarter, these parishes would bring in £324,008 9s. 1 id. and the whole income of the parish clergy would.then have been £2,046,457 Os. sd. When corn was at £3 19s. 2d. (higher nearly by one-third than it is now), those parishes brought in - £268,863 Bs. 6id. and the whole income of the parish clergy would then have been £1,694,991 6s. 71d. As wheat is now only £2 12s. 2d. affi quarter, it cannot of course be so at this moment; that is, the income of the parish clergy is little more at present than one million one hundred and fifty thousand pounds per annum. If divided, each clergy man would have about £ll2 W 3rear. There are in England and Wales 4361 livings under £l5O 4fi annum. (Parliamentary Papers of 1818, vol. 18, p. 216.) At that period corn was £3 195., 2d. 41 quarter ; and it is now one-third less. One-third, there fore, is to be deducted from the present estimate. 'There are under £ 10.. 12—above £ 10 under £ 20.. 45 Above 20 under 30..110--above 30 under 40..216 Above 40 under 50..314--above 50 under 60..314 Above 60 under 70..301--above 70 under 80..278 Above 80 under 90..251--above 90 under 100..394 Above 100 under 110..250--above 110 under 120..289 Above 120 under 130..254--above 130 under 149..217 Above 140 under 150..219 There are not four livings in all England worth £4,000 W annum. There are not thirty livings (besides) in all England worth £2,000 4Y year. If any one says there are, let the names be given. Livings, which in the high times were worth £2,500 4 annum, are now worth only £1,200. Such is a state of facts with respect to the incomes o the clergy. (FROM THE TRUE suN.) We had the pleasure of announcing, on Saturday, the rapid decline of the circulation of the - rimes. The state ment has evidently annoyed " the leading Journal." — Here follows its denial of the fact—a denial characterized by our contemporary's usual delicacy and gracefulness : " A friend who inquires whether the statement in a raffish Evening Paper is true, may satisfy his curiosity, and gratify his kind. feelings, by reference to any clerk in the Stamp-office. He will then see what, if we published it, would produce no little dismay among the scamps who abuse us." The Times- refers its correspondent to the clerics of the Stamp-oflice. The Times knows well that these func tionaries are not at liberty to disclose the secrets of the prison-house. Why, then, does the Times hesitate to overwhelm " the scamps who abuse" it, by publishing the extent of its sales ? " The scamps who abuse the Times" is an ingenious synonime for the whole community. The enemies of the Times, however ; know as well as the Times does, that the decline in its circulation has proceeded of late with a rapidity which is honourable to the country. (FRO➢I TIIE GUARDIAN.) Wishing to be understood as repeating what we have more than once said of the extreme hesitation with which we make allusion to the crazy condition of the cabinet, we feel compelled by duty to communicate to our readers the full and general conviction, in all the well-informed cir cles, that ministers cannot hold together longer, but that the administration must undergo some modification greater or less during, the Easter holydays. Yesterday there was an open rupture amongst them—the Duke of Richmond, Lord Brougham,, Mr. - Stanley, and Sir James .Graham, standing in direct opposition to Lords Grey s _ Althorp, J. Russell, &c., and Lord Palmerston trimming the • balance. At a late hour,. the Duke of Richmond proceeded to Wind sor with the result Of the discussion at which this broil oc curred. Apropos to this subject, we may mention another curi ous letter that is in course of quasi publication by being hasided round the clubs—it is a valedictory epistle to Lcrd Ilowick from Mr. Edward Ellice, late - SeCretary to the Treasury. Mr-Ellice threatens to emigrate to America,.and.de prive. the country of the possession of a:citizen- of whom it is unworthy, and after announcing this determination, he 'makes - the following very interesting intimation: —" If you. think the present cabinet has,any stability, the sooner you are undeceived the better,—its tenure of ffice is not Worth a month's purchase, and ought not to be worth a week's." Possibly Mr. Ellice thinks the time not dis tant when it may be as convenient to read in retirement in America—the investigation to be made into the con duct of those who called for denunciation of physical force, as to be in bodily presence in England, a party to that investigation. DOWIESTIC. COURT AND FASHIONABLE WORLD. The Princess Augusta left town about twelve o'clock on Tuesday, for the Palace at Windsor, to be present at the cele bration of the birth day of Prince George of Cambridge. His Royal Highness completed his 14th year yesterday. A large party of the Nobility and Gentry are staying at the Castle, accompanied by the junior branches of their respective fami lies. A juvenile ball was to be given last evening in honour of the day. The Duchess of Kent and the Princess Victoria drove in the Parks yesterday. Earl Grey, Viscounts Goderich and Althorp, Sir James Graham, Lord Holland, Lord John Russell, and Viscount Howick, held a meeting yesterday, at the Treasury, which lasted some hours. The French and Dutch Ambassadors had interviews with Vigeount Palmerston, yesterday, at the Foreign-office. 'A Deputation of Scotch Members, including Col. Leith Hay, Mr.. Haliburton, Capt. Gordon, and Mr. Ross, had a conference with Viscount Althorp yesterday, at the Treasury, respecting the malt duties. Madame Catalani, who has fixed, as we have already stated, her residence at Florence, where she enjoys all the consequence she so highly merits, has just been presented -to the grand Duke of Tuscany—an honour which this aristocratice Court has never before granted to any one of her profession. She is indebted for this distinction full as much at least to the purity of her personal character, as to the enemies of her talent. Madame Catalani has gained many millions of francs during her career, and has given at least one million to the poor.— French Paper. • Mr. Charlton Whitmore, the Member for Bridgenorth, is about to form a matrimonial alliance with Lady Louisa Douglas, eldest daughter of the Marquis of Queensberry, and cousin to the . Duke of Buccleuch. Lady Jane Stopterd, youngest daughter of the Earl of Courtown, is also said to be on the eve of matrimony with Abel John Ram, Esq., of Clonathin. This will be the third union between the noble family of Courtown and the ancient family of Rain within a century, the grandmo ther of the bridegroom and Lady Charlotte Rain having both been Stopfords. Both marriacres are expected to be solemnized at. Easter. A daughter of Julia Lady Petre, and niece to the Duke of Norfolk, is understood to be engaged to Captain Sir John Pechell, a Lord of the Admiralty. Two of the youthful . grand-daughters of Lord and Lady Mary borough, and great nieces of the Duke of Wellington, made their debut in fashionable life at the Queen's Drawing-room on Thursday, i. e. Miss Charlotte Somerset and Miss Harriet Ba got, daughters of Lord Fitzroy Somerset and of Sir Charles Bagot. Lord William Lennox appeared at the Marlborough-street Police-office on Monday, to refute a charge which had been made against him on Saturday, by a young woman, named Eliza Ann Victoria Leith. The girl had imputed to his Lord ship the crime of her seduction, but it was evident, not only from his Lordship's statement before the Magistrate, but from the letters of the poor girl herself, that she was labouring under a strong mental delusion, no improper intimacy having ever taken place between the parties. It seems that she is a native of Scotland, and is concerned in a Chancery cause, from which she expects a fortune of £30,000; but whether her fortune, like her.love, is only the phantom of a disordered imagination, can neither be affirmed nor denied from any thing that transpired at the office.—Morning Herald. The daughter of the late Lord Byron is to be presented at the next Drawing-room. The jewels haVe been ordered of an em inent jeweller at the west end of the town. Report in the fash ionable circles speaks very highly of the accomplishments of this young lady, who resembles her talented father in many of the finer qualities of his mind. Her education has been at tended to with the greatest solicitude by Lady Byron. The Duke of Devonshire was sufficiently well last week to visit his villa at Chiswick. In consequence of the Lord Cham berlain's indisposition there has been a temporary cessation of the balls, concerts, and dinner parties, with which he generally enlivens the commencement of the season. It is now under stood that Devonshire-house will not be opened to the great world until some time after the Easter recess. The Duke of Cleveland entertained a party at dinner on Sunday, in St. James's-square. On Sunday evening Prince Talleyrand and the Duchess de Dino gave a sumptuous dinner, at which were present her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cumberland, Prince and Prin cess Lieven, Earl Grey, Duchess of Sutherland, Baron and Baroness Bulow, M. Dedel (the new Dutch Plenipotentiary), Baron Wessenberg, Earl and Countess Cowper, Viscount Pal merston, Lord Auckland, Chevalier de Cordoba (Spanish Charge d'Affairs,) Earl and Countess of Sefton, M. Gersdorif (Saxon Minister,) Baron de Neumann, and Sir Henry Halford. The Duke of Cumberland was absent through indisposition arising from a cold. At the Princess Lieven's ball on Thursday, Lady Stuart de Rothsay discovered, on retiring to her carriage, that she had lost an aigrette of diamonds of immense value, and several other ladies lost their jewels. We understand, however, that all the missing valuables were afterwards found in the apartments of Ashburnham-house after a minute search. The Duchess of Northumberland gave a splendid rout yester day evening, at Northumberland-house, which was attended by all the distinguished of the haut ton in town. A rumour was in circulation on Monday that a difference had arisen between one of the Administration and his colleagues. —Morning Herald. It is very generally reported that Sir Samuel Whalley is in Deacon's orders. Of course, in this case, he is not eligible as a member of the House of Commons, and a new election for Marylebone must take place.—Record. Mr. Edward Ellice, late Secretary to the Treasury, is about taking his departure for Canada, in a vessel chartered expressly for him. He does not, we believe, go in any public capacity, but solely on account of his great stake iu these countries, as nearly the sole representative of the great North West Compa ny, united some years ago to the Hudson's Bay Company.— Guardian and Public Ledger. A marriage was recently solemnised at Planey in the depart ment of the Aube, which was worthy of the times of the Patri archs, or at least of those of King Priam. One of the happy pair was 84, and the other 86. They had both been twice married before, and there were present at the wedding 52 children and grand-children, the fruits of their former unions, and 43 nephews and neices, the children of brothers and sisters. —French Paper. The value of the Reform Bill has fallen sadly below par among some of the London constituencies. Mr. Murray, son of Lord Dunmore, the Ministerial candidate for Marylebone, found himself so completely distanced, that he resigned the con test before the close of the poll. The government influence was then thrown into the Radical scale, that' Mr. Hope, the Con servative, might be ousted by.securing the return of Sir Samuel Whalley ; which was effected by a majority of 2870. to 2075. This is the gratitude that Ministers show to tile Tories for their support in parliament.—Edinburgh Advertiser. HIGH STEWARDSHIP OF HULL.--The Duke of Wellington. in answer to an application from the Mayor and Burgesses,_ has expressed his willingness to accept of the office of High Steward of Hull, vacant by the demise of the venerable Earl Fitzwilliam. A petition to the King, praying him to confer the appointment upon the distinguished character in question, has consequently been forwarded to his Majesty in the usual course. PRETTY POlt K.—Mr. James Middleton, publican, of Church street, Sculcoates, has now in his possession a hog of the follow ing extraordinary dimensions :—Height, 4 feet 5 inches; length, from snout to tail end, 9 feet 4 inches; girth, 6 feet 10 inches; breadth across the shoulders, 22 inches. The. above pig was bred by Mr. M., and is only eighteen months old. Its weight ou Wednesday week was 54 stone 6 pounds, and its weekly consumption of food is twelve stone of barley meal, besides potatoes, &c. It therefore costs, at a moderate computation, fourteen shillings a-week for board.—York Courant. MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT.—OU Wednesday week; a melan choly accident, attended by a fatal result occurred at Eagles field, near Ecclefechan. About three o'clock on that day, a widow of the name of M'Gilter, after boiling a panful of pota toes, had occasion to remove the vessel from the fire. In doing so, she grasped the handle with her apron—a very common, but dangerous practice, which cannot be too severArreprobated. One corner of her apron came in contact with the fire, and on discovering this she dropped the pan, and in a stooping position. rolled the apron together as the likeliest method of extinguish ! ing the flames. In this way her cap also became ignited' and ! the flames spread rapidly over her head and breast, by which she was so much scorched that she died in twelve hours afterwards. Edinburgh Observer.

We may be mistaken as to their motives; for of all things, wish to judge charitably ;—but the t( their measures is too obvious to the meanest undersl be misinterpreted. For interpretation on this head, our readers to the eloquent and luminous exposition the Earl of Roden on the occasion. There is no € 1( fact, that there is a lavish expenditure of the public the dissemination of the tenets of the Roman Cathoc while every discouragement is given to Protestant connected with the education of the people, and the of the true Gospel.
