'but would move that it be now read and referred to a Com-

which he would urge at another time.

motion was agreed to.

EXPERIENCE OFTEN THE BEST
ADVISER.--As Spring approaches the larvae of destruc-
. _

tive insects are propagated in infinife.multitudes with amazing ra-
pidity, and impregnate with millions of insects the very air we
breathe, to the great injury of the young shoots and trees and plants,
particularly wall trees, and every species of vegetation put into mo-
tion and growth by the genial influence of the season.
J. READ begs to inform the public, that after 31 years practice
ia Horticulture in all its branches, and 17 years in Mechanical
Science, he has invented a NEW HYDRAULIC MACHINE,
for the purpose of subduing those destructive animalculie which
makes such deadly havoc on all fruit-trees and plants. This ma-
chine will throw water, in a powerful current, the distance of 50
feet. Made also of smaller dimension!, by which the water may be

dispensed in the form of a shower, or the most gentle dew-fall.

BOW-STREET.

A young woman, about twenty-seven years of age, and
of decent appearance, applied to Mr. TWYFORD, under the
following circumstances. At the beginning of the present
year she had had a child, to the father of which she was un-
married, and shortly after her delivery the midwife by whom
she was attended represented to her that a lady of fortune,
with whom she was acquainted, was anxious to take her
infant under her protection, and would provide for it, and
leave it a handsome income on her death. The applicant
was pleased with the good prospects which presented them-
selves for her infant, and she at length reluctantly consented
to part with it, on receiving two guineas, which were pre-
sented to her by the midwife as coming from the lady. The
applicant added, with tears in her eyes, that she had never
since seen her child, and she was now anxious at least to
see it, if not to obtain its return to her, and she applied to
know whether the Magistrate could not render any as-
sistance.

Mr. TwYFoRD could do nothing for the applicant ; she
was exceedingly indiscreet in parting with the child under
such circumstances.

In the course of the day a gentleman applied to know
whether he could not summon the conductor of an omnibus
for having charged him too much for a pane of glass, which
he had broken in the omnibus.

Mr. TWYFORD asked by what means the window had
been broken? Applicant—Why, a dispute arose between
myself and a fellow-passenger as to the window being open ;
he demanded that it should be shut, while I said it should
be open, and at last, to end the matter, I thrust my stick
through the pane of glass. The conductor demanded 18s.
for it, and I paid him ; but I am since informed that it was
too much.

Mr. Tws•roxn—l cannot assist you under such circum-
stances ; the glass was wilfully broken, and you were rightly
made to pay for it.—The applicant then withdrew.

pose of showing that the professor is still pursuing his pro-

form is filled in with the name of the gentleman who was
honoured with the correspondence. It is almost unneces-
sary to say that the application was unsuccessful.

ANOTHER MURDER.—An inquiry took place last
Monday at Liverpool respecting the death of Samuel Bees-
ton, who died on the 4th of May, was buried on the 7th, and,
owing to some suspicious circumstances, was disinterred on
Monday last. The Jury, after two days' sitting, brought in
a verdict of " Wilful Murder against some person or persons
unknown."

A high functionary, well known to be wanting nei-
ther in enthusiasm nor in attachment to the King, lately ex-
pressing an idea too little developed perhaps at the moment,
said that his Majesty ought to show himself, like Louis XIV.
Louis Philippe replied—" I would be a Louis XIV. only in
my museum at Versailles."—Paris Paper.
GREENWICH RA IL WAY.—The number of persons
who passed along the Greenwich Railway, from the 11th to
the 17th instant, as appears by the passengers' book, was
76,121, and the amount received 2,0901. 18s. sd.

PAISLEY.—By a return made up by the united
weavers, the number of unemployed looms in the town, is
2,743. From the returns of the Association the total number
of looms within the bounds of the town is between 5,000 and
6,000, consequently there is more than a half of the whole
weaving population, and of those dependent on them, com-
pletely idle. The distress at Paisley at this moment is thus
considerably worse than at the worst period in 1826.

In 1703, when Prince George of Denmark went
from Windsor to Pctworth to meet Charles 111. of Spain,
says Mr. Godwin, jun., in a judicious and well-timed " Ap-
peal to the Public on the subject of Railways," it appears that
the journey, which is a distance of about forty miles, occupied
fourteen hours, although those who travelled it did not get
out, save when they were overturned or stuck fast in the mire,
until they reached their destination. "We were thrown but
once in going," says the relator ; " but his Highness's body
coach would have suffered very much if the nimble boors of
Sussex had not frequently poised it or supported it with their
shoulders from Godalming almost to Petworth. The last
nine miles of the way cost us six hours to conquer them,"

who stand in the greatest need of indulgence.
The National Loan Fund Life Assurance Society
is an institution which promises to confer inestimable
advantages on half-pay officers, clerks, authors, artists,
persons connected with literature in every department,
civil engineers, respectable tradesmen, and all those
who have to depend for subsistence on lucrative
but precarious employments. By holding out in
ducements to them to save, it will encourage them
to cultivate habits of economy, and to become
in all respects better men and better members of
society. They are now reckless because they have it
not in their power to make a provision for their fami-
lies, and likewise because they have no opportunity
of ascertaining the ultimate value of petty savings con-
tinued for a long series of years. The establishment
of the Society now under consideration will open a new
prospect to this most respectable and most worthy class
of persons ; and we prize their understanding too highly
to suppose that they will be tardy in availing them-
selves of it. We, of course, are quite well aware that
the institution will be open indifferently to all—that
all classes may avail themselves of the benefits which
it offers ; but in directing the attention of the public
to its details, we, for the present, confine our remarks
to its applicability to the wants of the respectable,
well educated, unobtrusive, poorer middling class—a
class for the cultivation of whose habits of economy,
and the providing for whose silently endured wants
society has hitherto made no provision.

London, July 8, 1837.
Sir,—l have the honour to acknowledge the receiptt
of your communication of the sth instant, in which
you inform me of the proceedings of the electors of
the Northern division of the county of Durham, at the
meeting held on that day, and express a desire to
ascertain my sentiments on the subject then brought
under their consideration.

The whole of the Paris papers of Monday have been
received. They contain no domestic news of the
slightest interest. The Government had just been
made acquainted with the following telegraphic intelli-
gence from Spain :
" BAYONNE, JOLT 9.—Espartero was on the sth at Espejo,
marching towards the valley of Mena : he was joined by 400
horse, arriving from Madrid. It was said, that after passing the
Ebro, Don Carlos would proceed to Cantavieja, stop there, and
make it his place d'arrnes. The division of General Buerens,
10,000 foot and 700 horse, entered Saragossa on the sth, to
join Oraa in lower Aragon. Oraa will thus have 20,000
The Catalonians remain in their province, and the Baron de
Meer also. Another dispatch from Perpignan of the 9th,
merely states that the Baron de Meer was at Tarraga, when
Don Carlos passed the Ebro."

The duece is in it, or there will be some real figh
ig very shortly. Cantavieja is a large town i

We, your Majesty's dutiful and loyal subjects, churchwar-
dens and representative vestrymen of St. James's, Westmin-
ster, approach your Majesty with the most profound senti-
ments of fidelity and attachment.
We beg leave to express our regret and sympathy with your
Majesty for the loss of our late Most Gracious Sovereign,
under whose rule peace has been preserved, the laws amended,
and our rights and libertiei promoted and secured. His Ma-
jesty has carried to the grave the grateful remembrances of an
affectionate people.
We beg leave also to express our high satisfaction at the
auspicious accession of your Majesty, who, born and educated
amongst a free people, under the tender care of a wise, liberal,
and religious mother, are about to fulfil the sanguine expecta-
tions of a great and enlightened nation.
We look forward With confident hope to the judicious ap-
plication of reform to all the time-honoured, but time-worn,
institutions of our country ; to a mitigation of the severity of
our laws, and an abatement of the perplexities of their prac-
tice ; to see the blessing.: of education brought home to every
cottage door ; and, above all, the cultivation of Christian
charity amongst all classes of your Majesty's subjects.
That these expectations will be fulfilled we have a well-
founded assurance in your Majesty's gracious declaration to
your Council on your accession, and by the cheering fact of
your Majesty's having bestowed your confidence on those en-
lightened Ministers to whom we owe the extension of our li-
berties at home, and the abolition of slavery abroad.
We trust, therefore, and believe, that under Providence your
Majesty may be the appointed means of conveying peace,
liberty, happiness, and prosperity, to the millions over whom
your Majesty is called to reign.

sion—namcly, the great number of persons acquitted at
those Assizes, and also that the Learned Judge included
the list of the names of persons tried at the Sessions. With
reference to the present state of Ireland, all the Judges
agreed as to the state of tranquillity and the steady and con-
tinued improvement of the country. The state of improve-
ment had not been produced or promoted by exaggerated
statements in wandering and desultory debates in that
House, such as they had heard that night, but had resulted
from the improved government of the country, and this im-
provement was manifest to every one from the simple cir-
cumstance of the increased value of property in Ireland.—
(Hear, hear.) This, he was convinced, was one of the best
indications they could possibly have of the improvement in
the state of the country, which had resulted from the admi-
rable and steady administration of the Government, and of
justice in Ireland, by his Noble Friend near him.—( Hear,
hear.) When Noble Lords opposite referred to particular
cases, he begged them to compare the average returns of
crime for the last five years, when there was no suspension
of the regular state of the law, with the average of the pre-
vious five years, when measures of extraordinary severity
were constantly resorted to. He hoped by pursuing the
same course of good Government that he had hitherto done
—and he was sure that from nothing that he had heard
brought forward would his Noble Friend be deterred from
pursuing that course—that his Noble Friend would have
the satisfaction of finding the tranquillity and happiness of
Ireland as great as that of the part of the empire where they
then were.

The Marquis of WESTMEATH, in reply, complained
that his observations with respect to the state of the repre-
sentation, as well as other matters, had been represented by
the Noble Earl.

The Earl of MULGRAVE said the former observa-
tions of the Noble Marquis had so far led him aside from
the real question that he had omitted to say that he had
no objection to the production of the papers moved for.
The papers were then ordered.
On the motion of the Duke of RICHMOND, the Lon-
don and Brighton, and the Glasgow, Paisley, and Greenock
Railway Bills, were read a third time and passed. '

The excitement in the city, caused by the election, was
greater than was ever witnessed on a like occasion. Every

were alike confident of victory. As the day advanced, the
countenances or the former became brighter and brighter,

and, at the final close of the poll, the announcement of

FOREIGN OFFICE, MAY 26

A despatch- has been received by Viscount Palmerston,
G. C. B. , his Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for Foreign
Affairs, from Alexander Turnbull, Esq., his Majesty's Consul
at Marseilles, dated May 8, 1837, containing a notice relative
to the erection of a new light-house near Antibes, of which the
following is a translation :

DMINISTKATION OF BRIDGES, ROADS, LIGIIT-HOUSES, AND LIGHTS.

IRELAND.

To Aegis !—A few days ago we predicted the despera-
tion into which the Tories would be thrown by de aggregate
meeting convened in the Coburg Gardens. Of the pro-
ceedings of that important demonstration of national feel-
ing we have not yet any report, as the meeting took place
in Dublin only yesterday. But it is quite apparent by the
tone of the Orange organs that the Irish Tories are stung
to the quick by the effect, it is known, such a moral lesson
as the high and distinguished individuals with the united
masses who met yesterday, will furnish in favour of civil and
religious liberty.-

The Mail has even dared to go the length of calling the
Conservatives to arms. This loyal print eschewing sedition
actually used the following words last Friday :
" Let every man look to his own fortress, and provide for
its security. Let every man furnish himself with arms and
ammunition—both in defence of himself and his fellow-

VAUXHALL GARDENS.

Yesterday evening the first ascent for the season of the
enormous machine which has been named the Grand Vaux-
hall Nassau balloon, took place. Previously to the ascent
• of this huge machine, the company assembled in the gar-
dens were entertained with a variety of performances. The
band of the Surrey Yeomanry was in attendance, and per-
formed some of the popular airs. At half-past six o'clock
the balloon, inflated almost to its utmost dimensions, as-
cended from the inclosure. In the car were seven gentle-
men, viz., Mr. Green, the Pa!inurus of the voyage ; Cap-
tain Polhill, M.P. ; Mr. Robert Rouse, of Highgate ; Mr.
Spencer ; Messrs. R. and W. Hughes, and Mr. E. Gye.
The last six gentlemen got into the car with an alacrity
that evinced their courage and their confidence in the
experience of their pilot. On the firing of the signal
guns, the balloon was released from the ropes which bound
her from her native element, and she sprung into the air
with a velocity which was at onik most beautiful and ter-
rific. The wind was blowing hard from the, north-east,
and of course her passage was south-west: The density
of the atmosphere in a few minutes intercepted the sight
Of her from the spectators ; but there was something more
exciting in the rapidity of her flight than if she had
sailed through a calm and clear sky for a n.uch longer
time at a mucl slower pace. On the whole, the exhi-.
bition was one of great interest. The balloon, after tra-
velling twenty-five miles in twenty-three minutes, de-
scended in safety at Hodey, in Sussex. Mr. Green hav-
ing to commence the inflation for this day's. ascent at six
o'clock this morning, immediately folded the balloon, and
forwarded the whole apparatus in the Brighton van.

SURREY.

Last night this theatre was crowded to excess in every
part. The company is unusually strong, consisting of a
union of the performers of the Surrey and the Adelphi.
The performances opened with Abelard and Heloise, in
which Mrs. Yates, Mrs. Fitzwilliam, Yates, Homier,
Saville, with those inimitables in their way, John Reeve,
Buckstone, and though last, not least, 0. Smith, kept one
another and the audience, in the best spirits. This was
followed by a new piece called The Death Token, which is
founded on the following popular superstition :—" If three
knocks be heard in succession, and after short intervals; at a
door or casement, without the same being caused by human
agency, it may be regarded as a certain token of death to
some individual dear to the person who hears the fatal sound."
Not wishing unnecessarily to terrify our readers, instead
of detailing the plot wa will confine ourselves 'to the
general remark, that the author certainly has the merit of
having constructed a piece which, from beginning to end,
is of the mbst painful interest ; for some of the scenes are
calculated to make the stoutest heart ache, and the others
provoke so much laughter as literally to make one's sides
ache. John Reeve is a manufacturer of fireworks, and a.
lively spark he proves ; Buckstone, a rustic lover; not
much troubled with quixotic ideas, is particularly amus-
ing in a scene in which he is left 'to guard a drunken
murderer ; and Mrs. Yates exhibited great talent, both
in the scene in which she hears, the death token, and in
that in which she discovers that the lord of the village,
on whom she has consented to bestow her band, and his
hired ruffian, were the murderers of her lost husband on
her bridal night. The performances concluded with Alad-
din, or the Wonderful Lamp, which has been gorgeously
got up.

COVENT-GARDEN.

The entertainments provided at this house for the keepers
of Whitsuntide consisted of the first three acts of gen -y the
Eighth, the farce entitled The Modern Orpheus,or Music
the Food of 4ove, and the tragedy of George Barnwell.
Mr. Macready;played the part of Wolsey, and Miss Helen
Faucit the part of Queen Catherine, in the first, and eli-
cited loud and frequent applause. The audience was large
and merry, and entered into the amusement of the evening
with a spirit of fun which even the concluding terrors of the
tragedy could not subdue.

ST. JAMES'S.

Last night the favourite novelties• of Jack Brag and
The Eagle's Haunt, followed by The lllust, ions Stranger,
were performed to a very full and joyous house. Harley,
as the hero of the first pine, was all that the reader of
Theodore Hook's last laughable novel could expect or wish
for. It is the very beau ideal of impudent drollery. The
new operatic drama was well performed, and bids fair to
become a permanent favourite.

ASTLEY'S.

A new spectacle was produced at this theatre last night
`o the entire satisfaction of a crowded Whitsuntide au-

(nonce. It has for its style and title The Wars in Spain,
or Spaniards and English, embodying " a sketch and pa-
noramic living representation of the present interesting
events of the Peninsula." By a very strange omission
General Evans .does not form part of the dramatis
persona', but Don Carlos is there, larger then lite,
and particularly rampant, attended by an übiquitous
and uncommonly ferocious military monk, bight Valdez,
forcibly personified by Mr. Cartlitch. There is, however,
a very sufficient per contra to these anti-British Legionists
in the person of Ben Billows, a British sailor, a tar quite
of the old school, perfectly adequate to the surrounding
and doing to death a hundred miserable foreigners, and ac-
cordingly, by the aid of this jolly fellow, Don Carlos, the
" war priests," and the guerillas are thoroughly well
thrashed
.every
_other scene. The piece concludes with

the " Taking of St. Sebastian," on which occasion all the
Carlists are finally and positively for the last time demo-
by Ben and his old friend Joe Bombshell, the ma-
rine. The horses figure throughout the Spectacle, as usual
to the very best effect, and some of the scenery is really
eery good. The piece is full of "guns, trumpets, blun-
derbuss, and thunder," and highly delighted the audience.
A sort of pantomimic entertainment, under, the imposing
denomination of " The Elements—Earth, Air, Fire, Water,
or the Monster Balloon," concluded the evening's amuse-
ments.
