where St. Paul preached the Gospel. Damascus,

By the REV. JOHN I.INGARIS),
Author of " The Antiquities of the Anglo-Saxon Church."
This Work will contain the History of the %milieus Divi-
sion of this Islam', from its first Invasion by the Romans to
the Accession of Fleury VIII. To render it worthy the
Patrouage of the Public, the Author has spared nu pains in
consulting the most aucient historians, and comparing their
Narratives with such authentic Documents as are known to
exist. He has not confined to is barren recital of
facts, hut has endeavoured to ti-ace the progress of the
Nation from barbarism to mfinerneil, and to mark ;lc gra-
dual improvemelit in the arts of Legislation and Govern-
ment. With this view he litis considered it a duty to deli-
neate with accs,sacy the manures, and polity of our
Anzio-Saxon ancestors; pt Notice the tweizii customs en-
grafted upon them by the Norman eolovieitira; to develops:
the causes which rendered she gocereigis depsartant tivi the

Nation ; and to describe the most valuable improvements,
which in the course of each reign wet 3 made in the laws, the
administration of ..justi.e, and the iuldual government of
the Jtia‘dctin•
It may perhaps be thought a recommendation tn this
Work, that it was, w the first instance, composed without
any reference to Modern Historians. The Author reit-
g' ly confined his researches to the Original, and wheuetrer
it was possible to Contemporary Writers. This resolution
rendered his task more ; hot it rendered it also
more satisfactory. It preserved .109:frorn imbibing the pre-
judices. or CtoPYing the mistakes of uthi es: it Irft him to
the unbiassed exercise of his own judgment; and it has en-
abled him to place in a new, and he frosts a more interest-

" They related to us the history of s young girl
Uritorn, who by singular intrepidity and pre-
sence of mind saved herself from the jaws of a cro-
codile. When she felt herself seized, she sought
the eyes of the animal, and plunged her fingers
row them with such violence, that the pain forced
the crocodile to let her loose, after having bitten
off ti,e tower part of her left arm. The girl, not-
withstanding the enormous quantity of blood she
lost, happily reached the shore, swimming with the
kind she had still left. In those desert countries,
where mats is ever wrestling with ordure, discourse

ANECDOTE OF JUDGE JEFFERYS.

When this arbitrary Judge was not under State
influence, he seemed to have a sense of the natural
or civil rights of men, and an inclination to 'pro-
tect them. The Mayor, Aldermen, and Justices of
Bristol had been used to transport convicts to the
American plantations, and to sell them by way of
trade—and finding the commodity turn to good
account, they contrived a method to make it more
plentiful. the legal convicts were but fow, and
the exportation was considerable. %Viten, therefore,
any petty rogues and pilferers were brought before
them in a judicial capacity, they were sure to be
terribly threatened with hanging, and some very
diligent officers were always in attendance, who
advised the ignorant intimidated creatures to pray
for transportation, as the only way to save them ;
and, in general, by some means or other, the ad-
vice was followed. Then, without any other form,
each Alderman took one in his turn, and sold him
for his own benefit; and sometimes warm dispute*
arose among them, about the next turn. This
trade had been carried on unnoticed for several
years, when it came to the knowledge of Lord
Chief Justice Jeffers's, who, finding upon inquiry
that the Mayor was equally involved in the guilt of
this cruel practice with the rest of his brethren,
he made him descend from the bench where lie was
slitting, and stand at the bar in his scarlet and furs,
and plead is a common criminal. Ile then took
securities from them to answer informations : but
the amnesty after the Hevoluf stopped the pro-
ceedings. The foregoing is u proof of an obser a-
tion no less common than true, that no character is
completely consistent—the best not being entirely
free from vice. nor the worst totully destitute of
virtue.

The neighbourhood of Kensiegtoo has hitherto been the
refuge of the most dexterous and audacious video'. in the
Metropolis. Burglaries within the last few weeks have !men
committed to an alarming extent, ■ud with inspouity ; mid
on Thnrsday night only, some of this daring gang tore op
the pump opposite the White Lion public house, and car-
ried it away, leaving the greater part of the neighbourhood,
who depended solely ou the some foe water, in the greatest
want, in consequence of the ion of this temple of con-
ireisiesee.—Yesterday a►orming some daring villains broke

TO THE EDITOR OF THE BRITISH PRESS.

nm this moment arrived in this town,
having followed the cavalcade, along with Nir.
Hunt and the men sent to Lancaster Castle with
him, from Blackburn. An attempt to describe
any thing like the feeling expressed by the people
in Blackburn and on the road, would be alto-
gether useless. I never beheld such enthusiasm—
women and children, men and boys, old age and
youth, decrepid and hale, lined the road all the
way to Bolton ; and. as I ■m informed, the car-
riages were drawn nearly all the way by the iipopte.
This, town is at preseut (Mr. Hunt and Sir C.
Wolseley are addressing the multitude) crowded
for several hundreds of yards; linked where I am
it is in vain to attempt to hear any thing, and there
is no possibility of getting nearer.• The people are
really frantic. How foolishly the Magiatratrs of
Manchester have acted ! no step could have so
fully established Mr. Hunt's Issue a. this foolish
prosecution, which they must allow arose out cf an
act of the most wanton and etrocion• kind.

I am told the three gentlemen (Mr. Hunt, Sir
C. Wolseley, and Mr. Pearson) have this day de-
picted in no pale colours the acts of the Magist►ates
and yeomanry, and the great mischief they emitted,
and did inflict on a peaceable people. Our famed
Fletcher comes in fur his share of these Gentle-
men's remarks.

I would to God that these Ningictrates and powers
that be would open their eyes—the expression of
the people here is truly awful !—it haw nn up
pearance of an ebullition, but a solid and firm fixed
determination of public feeling.

APPREHENSION OF .11• INNIS.

It will he recollected by one readers, that on the night o
the 7Jilof July last, William Bitch, Assistant Deputy Con-
stable Of Stockport, having arrested and brought in rum.
body the Iter. 3fr. was, npun passing from
bit house, fired at and wonntled ; several persons were its
rtinsrquenee taken into custody upon suspicion; Iwo
laughers, Jacob and Mt if, natives of Ireland,
the former a weaver, were strongly suspected; Birch hay-
ing furnished a description answering their persons, and
the circumstance of their immediate disappearance from
the town, a reward was offered for their apprehension;
and a c 1111 l inunication matte to the civil authorities in
this country; it wan ascertained that on the Bth of An.
gust last, Jacob 511attis arrived in a vessel at Warren-
point, Newry; search woe accordingly made in the neigh-
bourhood, by the Rev. Holt Waring, Magistrate for the
county of Down ; the supposed culprit bad however fled,
but was subsequently taken at a watering-place in the vici-
nity, tolled Newcastle, under a warrant frum the Marqnis of
Downshire, and comtnitted to the gaol of Downpatrick. In •
form town of the circumstance having been received in Dub-
lin, Major Sirr, who is a Magiatrate fur the county of Down,
backed the warrant for the removal of the Prisoner, and slr.
Maiming, Chief Peace Officer of College.stseet Office,
was dispatched to execute it : hr yesterday evening at ',teed
iu town with his prisoner in custody, with whom he will
probably depart to lodge him in Chester gaol, to take his
trial at the present Assizes. The Prisoner is au interesting
looking young as., shunt twenty-one years of age.—
(Dublin f:rening l'ost, September 7.)
Intelligence was received nu Monday last of the appre-
hension of Jacob 51• Innis, who is strongly suspected of
being the man who fired at Birch. He was apprehended
at his Otter's house in Dublin, by an officer named Man-
ning, and arrived here on Tuesday, on which day he was
examined for the first time, before the Rev. Mr. Armitatead.
Wlnnis is described as a young man, apparestly about 25,
very decently and respectably dressed in black. He appears
by no means dejected, and roundly asserts his innocence.—
Pearson, one of the other persons committed for this offence,
we are informed, is wholly discountenanced by the Radicals
of !Rockport, who have rejected his petition for an allow-
ance. Our readers will perceive that uoue of these people
with be tried until the next Assizes.
We since understand, that yesterday *lnnis had a second
examination, sad a third and final one is expected to take
place on Saturday.--( Chester Graven/1m)

which be had given notice. He stated that his object eras
not at all to change the law of the land respectioK the qua.
lifications of electorm—what improvements should be made
therriu be should not tithe upon him to say—his object was
to marled the qualification oath required to be taken Icy per-
sons voting in counties to the electors of boroughs and
towns exercising the elective franchise is right of freehold
property. The object of his snotina was merely to take away
a great grievance, the waist of an math of qualification in the
case he bad mentioned. It would also have the effect of alto.
lishiug what was greatly cried out against, orcasionality of
voting, and the frauduleut conveyances of freeholds. He
conceived that his views, as he had stated them, were of
high importance to the country. If his motion was agreed
to, he should bring in the Bill, sod have it read a first time
and printed, after which he bbould leave full time fur the
country to consider it before 'wising its second reading. The
Host. Gentleman then moved ,t for leave to bring is • Btll

LEWES, SEPTEMBER 27.

The annual exhibition of stock at Horsham, of
the Members of the Bramber Agricultural Asso-

the 17th instant. We were gratified to witness the
competition, particularly us to heifers and cows,
shewing that the spirit of this useful institution
1:35 not declined under the general depression of
ogr;culture, which has occasioned other associations
of a similar description to suspend their meetings.
At three o'clock the company moved from the
field to the King's Head Inn, where a party of
Heade fifty sat down to an excellent dinner; the
lenison was a present from Walter Burrell, E.g.
M.P. The Chair was filled by Sir Charles Mtrrik

every Alderman who shall be elected, shall take place ac-
cording to his seniority in the Court, and hive preecileoce
of every Commoner; that accordingly Mfr. Alderman Roth-
well was put in nomination before Joseph Wilfred Porkies,
and rejected by the Livery; therefore the Act was fulfilled ;
and if Alderman ltotbwell had been elected ois his first no-
tion, his seniority might then 11..%e hero undisputed.

prive • Commoner of that peniority which the choice of She
Livery hail bridowed, and which, by entering into bond to
discharge the duty of Sheriff, had been confirmed before Al.
skisnati Bothwell had been, fur the second time, proposed to
the Livery fur their approbation.

i libly. Because the Charter of the City of London has di-
! retried the Sheriffs to be freely and indifferently chosen by
i tioo Citogros u iiliout any restriction; poi Joseph Wilfred Par-

I Connell which might be construed to mottol the free choice

1 a curtailment of the Olives' privilege and choice in the
1 election of Sheriffs, and as an encroachment on their char.
1 fermi rights, therefore void to all intents nod purposes, and
I enacted without the power of operation or effect.
totlily. Because io entering into an office to which I have
heen elected under Charter, by the Livery of London io
Common Hall assembled, I deny the competency of any
other power or authority than that of the Lavery who chose
i site, to abrogate their priority of choice, and I claim that
I priority a. ay sindoubted right, conceiving that, if I waived
• it, I should not fulfil the palpable intentions of the Livery,
tool should compromise their rights; therefore I, Joseph

I office, and obit William Jackson, my Under WHO*, be
also sworn sccor.liug to usual custom; by which that pri.
i tatty of precedency may be condrmed, which the priority of
election had liestuwed; stud this I now publicly demand in
soy own name, and on behalf of the Livery of London,
whose Representative I am, and fur the support and prts-
section of the chartered rights aid privileges of the said

Gflgtdritew-s-I have desired liol. to he placed to your
account. Though no friend to Universal Suffrage and An-
nual Parliaments, I trust I am so to the principles uf mini.
versa! justice and humanity, w►ich involve the great maxim
uf equal law to the rich and the poor—to the Magistrate who
executes, and the people who obey it.
Whatever may have been the objects of those who called,
or those who composed the meeting at Manchester, which
was attended with such disastrous coesequences, the laws
of the land ought, unquestionably, oa that melancholy oc-
casion, to have been respected; whether they were so or not
is the question now eagerly asked by all impartial persons.
A nyetterapt to stifle a fall isiveetiption of the circumstances
connected with this question, should it for a moment If
contemplated by those is power, would not only be highly
injurious to the cause of truth, and the best interests of the
country, but extremely piling to the friends and relatives of
those who have fallen, or who have been sufferers in these
iinfortimate transactions; and also to the feelings of an
anxious, loyal, open-bearted, but now, alas! much distressed
and deeply-agitated (not to say irritated) nation.
The Ministers, with breathleu haste, prejudge this im.
portant question, while they are anthoritatively calling on
others not to do so. They say, indeed, that if the laws are
violated, the tribunals of the country are open to afford re.
dress—may their portals be widely expanded on this memor-
able occasion
