A Large Weekly Newspaper, Price 6d.
ON SATURDAY, the 15th of JUNE, the
" OLD ENGLAND" will appear in a greatly en-
larged form, and will be found, notwithstanding the vast num-
ber of weekly papers published in the metropolis, the only one

consequently complete synopsis of the events of the week ; for
whit, t one gives a preference to Literary, another to Political,
and a third to Professional subjects, all give a prominency to
s nne one particular feature, to the prejudice or exclusion of the
others.
The object of the conductors of the " OLD ENGLAND"
will, therefore, be to remedy this defect, and to place within
the reach of the general reader a Weekly Paper of such a cha-
racter as shall prove a substitute for the Daily Press, and afford

only can now command whose means and opportunities enable
them to consult daily sources of intelligence.

embracing every thing which can be of interest to the general
reader, the politician, the agriculturist, the tradesman, and the
mechanic.

AT a MEETING of the CENTRAL
NEGRO EMANCIPATION COMMITTEE, held
at their Office, No. 25, Tokenhouse-yard, on the 3d June, 1839;
G. W. ALEXANDER, Esq., in the Chair;
It was Resolved,
That this Committee feel called upon, at the present Crisis of
affairs in the colony of Jamaica, to express the confidence which
the friends to the Negro have in the firmness, impartiality, and
conciliatory couduct of his Excellency Sir Lionel Smith, the
Lieutenant-Governor, which have eminently entitled hint to
public gratitude.
It is therefore with grief and alarm that they have heard that
his removal from the Government is considered as likely to
facilitate an accommodation of the existing differences between
the Queen's Ministers and the Jamaica Assembly.
That they would consider the recal of Sir Lionel Smith, un-
der such circumstances, as not only a most disastrous event in
its immediate effect upon the interests of the Colony, but as
tending to operate most prejudicially by discouraging all future
Governors in the upright arid faithful discharge of their public
duty. G W. ALEXANDER, Chairman.

SHEERNESS.-SUNDAY.

Yesterday being the anniversary of Lord Howe's vic-
tory (June 1, 1794) our Commander-in Chief, Vice- Ad-
miral Sir Robert Waller Otway, Bart., and K. C. 8., gave
a brilliant entertainment to the naval officers in this port;
amongst the party was our veteran Superintendent, Sir
John Hill, who was First Lieutenant of the Minotaur at
the battle of the Nile; Captain Sir H. F. Senhouse,
K.C. H., of the Blenheim, who was a Lieutenant of the
Conqueror in the battle of Trafalgar ; Lieutenant Gall-
wey (Flag Lieutenant), whose uncle, " Jack Payne,"
commanded the Russell on the Ist of June; also Mr.
Whitchurst, Purser of the Howe, who had a leg shot off
when a Midshipman on that day.
The ladies and daughters of the two first-named officers
were of the dinner party, which was served up in Monsieur
Fiehet's usual good style.
The first toast proposed by our gallant Admiral was the
health of our amiable, lovely, and accomplished young
Queen, then followed the Queen Dowager and the Royal
Family. The memory of Lord Howe and the brave men
who fell on that eventful day was drank in solemn silence.
It is a coincidence worthy of remark, that the gallant Chief
re-hoisted his flag on board the Howe yesterday (the Ist o
June), he having shared in that glorious battle.

DE A FNESS.—At length this dreadful malady is
completely obviated, without torture and serious risk by
medical treatment. The Messrs. S. and B. Solomons,
39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly, have constructed a Voice-
Conductor, the size of a seven-shilling piece, which,
when fixed into the cavity of the ear, is soft, easy, and not
more uncomfortable nor perceptible than having a piece of
wool its place; and that which is deserving the public
attention and approbation is, that an individual in com-
pany may place it in the ear and remove it unobserved.
It pours into the ear:the general conversation to such an ex-
tent that, in the most severe cases, sufferers are enabled to
hear the slightest whisper at a public assembly. Their
newly-invented Spectacle Lenses, immediately they are
placed before imperfect vision, bring it at once back to its
original and natural state, and the most minute particle is
seen, either by day or candle light, with exact distinctness.
Those valuable improvements in the materials are secret
to themselves, and are solely confined to their establish-
ment, 39, Albemarle-street.

FAIR ROSAMOND ; OR, THE DAYS OF KING
HENRY IL—As in his preceding publications, Mr. Miller,
in the present performance displays a fine poetical vein, an
admirable conception of the historical characters belonging
to the period he has chosen, even greater talent than be.
fore, in commanding individual portraiture, glowing powers
of description, and felicity in making his under and ficti-
tious agents play a consistent part in developing the drama
of his principal personages. His Rosamond is a beautiful
loving creature ; his Henry, noble and chivalrous ; his
Eleanor, revengeful aLd implacable; and his Becket, one
of the most striking pictures we have seen on such a can-
vas. Glanvil, the minstrel, Pierre de Vidal, and other
sketches, are equally true ; whilst Ugglethread and Games
Gobbo are excellent specimens of the skill with which
fancy may interweave the suppositious with the real. This
very masterly production reminda us often of Scott, but
with features peculiar to the author himself, and to that
bent of mind and fancy which has made his writings of an-
othe r description so deservedly favourites with the public.
Literary Gazelle.
Last night, about nine o'
clock, a be)) named
William Hawkins, aged twelve years, while washing his
feet at the Temple Stairs, fell off the causeway, and was
drowned. Inspector Sheppard, of the Temple Police, and
one of his men, found the body at twelve o'clock, and,
with the assistance of the Thames Police, had it conveyed
I to St. Clements' Workhouse to await the inquest.
