DISTRESS BD SE43IN.N.

Notwithstanding the increased donations of the
benevolent in aid of the fund for relieving the above
'Arrow, it it much (*eared that the means will l:e
found b.:phi:late, unless, the Government immedi-
ately co-operate with the humane Committee now
sitting at the King's Head, Poultry. The number
of wretched applicant* increase fearfully, and yes-
terday the pa'uage on either aisle the Tavern we
have mentioned was literally choked with squalid
beings acrkiiig relief.
to the cuisine of the morning Mr. Butler and
others of the Committee waited upon the Lord
Mayer, amid entreated that, in furtherance of their
object, hr would assist them in obtaining the en-
tratiee of about 100 of the wretched StllllCll, whose
cases they load investigated, into the L tun Work-
hmise. They did not meats to impose op the
establislithent those who were Fick or diseased, hut
were destitute of covering. and were
verging to desiriaciisiii by want. The asylums al-
ready provided for these poor creatures were nearly
filled, and' notwithstanding the temporary relief
afforded to numbers, the totally destitute seemed to
form the Majori4 of applicants.
The Lutl,6 114Axoa concurred in the idea of
seitskitg ea many as possible to the London Work-
Irosi4e, and requested that a list might he made out,
withoot delay; of thos.s who were considered the

trusted ;that the vessel* intended to be given by
Government in aid of the Society's views, would
shortly he ready.
Mr. Diu NKA RD (the Common Councilman) was
happy to assure the Lord Alayor, that there was
every reamto expect the ittiniediate appointment
of three hulk«, at least, for the reception of the
distressed seamen, who would be Turnislied with
food and clothes. It was arranged also, that the

SPANISH AMERICA.

The recent work of Captain Bonnycastle, on
this interesting subject, possesses stroug claims on
the attention of a very large proportion of readers.
It is well adapted, as • clans-hook, for the higher
students in schools; and, as a compendium of his-
torical and geographical information, forms a most
desirable appendage to the news-rows of a public
library. The consideration that uo work of ■
similar kind in the English language existed. on
the Traits-Atlantic Colonies of Spain, might •'one
have justified the author its undertaking an arduous
a task ; and it is fortunate that this motive ac-
corded so well with his favourite puteuits. as to
animate him with redoubled zeal for its accom-
plishment. He does not write aids the tenseness
of one who having incautiously given a pledge to
the public, feels himself reluctantly bound to re-
deem it ; on the contrary, every step in his pro-
gress seems to have inspired him with fresh ala-
crity ; and, if we may he pardoned so jocittii ass
" El Dorado." has been apparently as
delightful a hobby to him, as the sieges in Flan.
dens were to honest Captain Shandy. It is from
this ardent attachment to his subject, that we must
account for the extensive and indefatigable research
which he has imposed upon himself, as is manifest
in every section of his performance, es well as for
that tone of origiuslity which eminently distin-
guishes it from the frigid. common-place composi-
tion of a mere compiler.
However this sedulous accuracy sway have re-
tarded the completion, it has greatly augmented
the value of the work. From its stores the student
may perfect one branch of a liberal education, by
acquainting himself with the natural and politicel
history of a most interesting portion of the globe ;
the merchant may derive important and useful de-
tails to direct him in his speculations ; sod the
statesman may appreciate the tendency of that
eventful revolution. which has for eight years en-
gaged the attention of the civilized world.
Among the variety of valuable information capa-
ble of being, without injury. separated front the
context, we select the following passage, which
occurs in the description of Cuba :

PROFESSOR JOHN.

Tile following anecdtiteWll;rtifersor Jahn, in
Berlin, whose system for making youth perfect in
gymmstic exercises has given rise to endless dis-
putes in Germany, is highly characteristic. When
the French were in Brill*. Joins Went with his
scholars to exercise on the heath out of the city. On
his return he took it into his hood to ask a boy who

Victory !"" What
is become of herr ?"—" TkolTrench have carried
her to France 11'hat do you think of it ?"
" Nothing at all !" Upon this John gave -him a
hearty box on the ear, with the serious admonition.
"She was there, and 'way be fetched back again, if
every one 'help !" The school never forgot it,
though the citizens of Berlin thought the Professor
and, because he required that a boy should think
something at reting the gate without the " Victory."
while thousands missed through.it every day with.

THE QUEEN.

Sir HENRY HALFOND left Kew Palace on
Thursday, fur Windsor, to take his waiting ou ►he
KING. and to attend the Princeu SOPHIA.
Sir FRANCIS ditt.ts.►x did not attend her MA-
JESTY so early yesterday morning as he generally
does, owing to the Quiets enjoying her repose,
which caused the Bulletin to be much later than
usual. The following is a copy of it :

" Kew Palace, October 30, ISIS.

" The Queen passed the greater part of yesterday in a very
uncomfortable stale; bat the sleep which her Majesty bas
had in the night has afforded relief this morning.

lie died at Rouen on the night of Saturday last, in
the 62d year of his age. The Emperor of Rossi*
and King of PRUSSIA were expected at Sedan on
the 23th, where they were to review the Prussian
corps, commanded by General Zienter4. on the
26th. On the following day their Majesties were
to proceed to Paris, where the Duke of WELLING-
TON was also expected. In the mean time, the
Emperor of AUSTRIA remains at Aix-la-Chapelle,
until the return of his august Allies. which, with
the continued conferences between the Ministers of
the several Powers, would intimate that the discus-
sions originally proposed for the Congress are not
confined solely to the question of withdrawing the
allied armies from the French territories. Private
accounts from Aix-la-Chapelle indeed assert, that
not less than eighteen questions still remniu for
conference; but the extreme seamy uniformly
observed by the diplomatists respecting the sub-
jects of their discussions. is a presumptive evidence
against the authenticity of this story.
We have also received German Papers of recent
date. The powerful interference of some great
Sovereign in favour of Baden, has. it is thought,

BARBAR4JUS OUTRAGE.

Extract of a letter from Karns'', dated Monday :
" On Satarday a party of Major Warburton's police went
from Kilruslo to the acighbourbood of litlkee, to appre-
hend two men charged with murder; they succeeded in
taking one of them, and lie was left in charge of two of
the party, whilst the rest proceeded in search of the other
offender. Ind few minutes after the police weld, Alt

Yesterday a numerous wood respectable Meeting
of the loolwhitants of the Districts of Finsbury and
the Tower, was held at the City of London Tavern,
in pursuance of a Requisition for the purpose of
considering the Monopoly of the principal Water
Companies.
At one o'clock Mr. J. B. SHARPE took the Chair,
and called on the Secretary to read the Requisition
in pursuance of which the Meetink was convened.
After this was done—

The Cristassare addressed the Meeting on the
subject for the discussion of which they had assem-
bled. In taking the Chair on the present impor-
taut occasion, he said he hod yielded to the solici-
tationa of others, and much feared, that without
their considerate support, his feeble efforts would
he inadequate to maintain that authority which
they had delegated to him. This Meeting had, he
said, originated with several gentlemen of ability,
who had looked at the degradation to which the
greater portion of the public had been consigned,
by the monopoly of the Companies who chiefly
supplied the metropolis with water. These gen-
tlemen had felt it their duty to warn the public of
the injuries they were daily enduring from this mo-
nopoly, and which were constantly increasing in a
compound ratio. They were guided by ;to per-
sonal views, and the public good was alone their
object and motive for preparing a series of Re-
solutions for the consideration of this assembly.
Many persons present may, perhaps, recollect, that
up to the year 1807, the Nets River Company
had a monopoly fur almost the whole supply of the
water of the metropolis. They had at the west
side the whole range up to the Park ; and on the
east, as far as Shiadwello and the Thames. Their
iiiordinate demands, end iiirffirient supply, went
at that period howl in hand with each other, and
the consequence was, that an Act of Parliament
was at length passed fur the establishment of an-
other Company, rimier the title of the East Lon-
don Water Works Company. The Legislature
granted a charter to this new Company, expressly
to protect the public against the injurious effects of
the monopoly whicii previously existed, and also to
insure them a cheap and fair supply of good water.
At rust the new Company went oil very well, both
kir the Proprietors and the public, but he was sorry
t observe they soon became a party to the holm.:
sauna of the ed which they were incorporated to
redress, and were armed with an nifttuation to
grasp at an exclusive (monopoly themsrlve,. A

GERMAN PAPERS.

WORZSIBIZO, OCTOBER 18.
The Euspeesa Doweled of Russia will, it is said,
pay • visit to the Court of the Grand Duke of Ba-
den after she leaves Stutgsrd.
Tlie•Supplement to the Constitution of Baden,
that litosay, • certain number of organic laws,
more imply develoiring lamina df the particulars of
this Charter, will shortly be published. Among them
is said to be a new organization of the Admiritstra-
•tion'lnd judicial system, the author of which is
e•ppied to be the 'highly-esteemed Minister of
-State, Von Reitenstein, the same to whom we are
indebted fir most of the liberal dispositions of the
'Baden Constitution. . Nothing is known of the par-
ticulars of this orgo niXat ion, which all Patriots impa-
tientlyexpect, but it will certainly answer the general
expedition. The establishment of Provincial Go-
vernments is isid'to be at hood. They also speak
of • change in our Civil Legislation, and of in-
tended modifications of the present Civil Code of
Baden, which is founded on the Code Napoleon,
hut was adapted to the Haden Constitution by the
late Counsellor Breuer. Many of the articles may
be improved, but the whole has many advantages.
It il affirmed, that • a Committee of experienced
statesmen and lawyers will be appointed to discuss
this subject.
The political relations of Baden are near to their
decision, and we hope it will be agreeable to the
wishes of the Government and the people. It is
certain that powerful influence has intervened in
favour of Bairn. Our late apprehensions begin to
disappear. There is nothing further said of calling
together the Lasidwehr, and it is hoped that the
military measures will shortly be discontinued ; we
hear they have excited greet sensation in all Ger.
many. The diplomatic proceedings of the Court
of Baden ■re very active, hut nothing certain is
known respecting them. 'the movements of the
troops have indeed given rise to Many unfounded
reporta. The circumstance that the calling in of
the absentees did not include the Officers, sheers
that it was not of such importance; only the sub-
alterus and privates have been rifted on to exercise
as they are every year, and we hear they will be
disembodied before the end of the month.—
The report that the residence of the Grand Duke
was surrounded by detachments of cavalry, is
equally unfounded, and also that no persons, not
even natives, are admitted. The health of the
Grand Duke is such as to remove all apprehen-
sions of danger ; he works daily with the Ministers,
and be wants only repose to recover entirely.

The Defendant admitted that the cart did carry away the

was driving getting restive and uninanagtable.

Mr. fishy asserted that WRY lint the case; it was en-

iliscretionsiy 'miter as to the amount of penalty, fur it said
it was not to be more than 101. or leiai than 40s. As the
Defendant appeared to he sorry fur the offeuce he hail eons.

allowed.

The Defendant declared him inability to ;my it.
The worthy Alderman said he was sorry for it, as he won Id
.be obliged to commit him to the House of Cirrectiou for

The Defendant was accordingly committed for three
