It is rumoured that an annunity of 8,000/. per
annum reverts to the Crown, since the demise of Mrs. Fitz-
herbert. [ler jointure from her first marriage was 6,000/. a
year, which she relinquished after her last alliance; since then,
On an estate where a great number of rabbits are an-
nually destroyed during the month of November, I have ob-
served that several dogs who were previously in good health
and condition, soon became weak, listless, and excessively
emaciated, frequently passing large portions of the tape-worm ;
this induced me to examine the intestines of several hares and
rabbits, and, with very few exceptions, I found each to con-
tain a perfect tape-worm, from three to four feet in lengh. I
then caused two of the dogs whose cases appeared the worst,
to be separated from the others, feeding them on potatoes,
&c. ; and in eight or ten days, after voiding several feet of the
worm they were perfectly restored to their fernier strength
and appearance. The vermicular disease, hitherto so formid-
able to the spaniel and pointer, may therefore in a great mea-
sure be fairly attributed to the custom of giving them the in-
testines of their game, under the technical appellation of " the
paunch." The facts above stated, in explaining the cause of
the disease, at the seme time suggests the remedy. —Bagnehl.
" THE PET OF THE PETTICOATS."—The orgies
of Mr. Holmes and his friends have been exhibited to public
view in the same manner as those of Mr. Hodgson and his
supporters. To expose tho pretty puerilities of Mr. Thomas
Knox Holmes—the slip of Conservatism by whom the stock
of Holmes is here represented—would be indeed to " break
a butterfly on the wheel;" and whether the hodge- ridge of
Mr. Hodgson or the slip-slop of Me. Thomas Knox Holmes
be the more palatable stuff, is a question on which we do not
pretend to offer an opinion; but when whipped cream is dis-
covered to be a solid substance—when cakes of gilt ginger-
bread are transmitted into ingots of gold—the orations of Mr.
Thomas Knox Holmes will be allowed to contain " the pith
of sense." A single sight of the staggering burgesses who
issue from the quarters of Messrs. Holmes and Hodgson will
show where the treating goes on ; and Sir Keane Dobkin
must, we fear, plead guilty to the charge of net making his
supporters reduce themselves for days and weeks to the con-
dition of beasts.—Berwick Advertiser.
A traveller who has just arrived from Milan left
that town on the 12th, but was stopped on the 13th by the
snow at Duomo d'Ossola. The weather having cleared up
on the 14th, he was enabled to reach Gondo, having, however,
to pass over the same avalanches which had recently fallen.
At a short distance from Gondo, towards the Simplon, forty-
five men and ten horses were employed in clearing the road,
which had been rendered dangerous by the joint effects of the
snow and the thaw. Of the forty-five men, ten were at the
heads of the horses, while the remaining thirty-five were at
work nearly in one spot. In a moment all these thirty-five, ex-
cept three, were overwhelmed by the sudden descent of an
avalanche. The thirteen who remained free instantly set to
work to release their companions, and succeeded in drawing
twenty-two of them alive from beneath the fallen mass, but
the remaining thirteen were so deeply covered, that their
bodies were not found for several days afterwards. Six of
them were married, and the widow of one. of them is left with
four children, and is at the same time pregnant with another.
Another of the bereaved women lost not only her husband, but
her father and two brothers. Between the 15th and. 17th
seven horses, belonging to the post-house at Berisalp, near
Brigg, as they were returning home, were dashed by an ,ava-
lanche over a precipice, and four of them were killed. On the
same day a travelling carriage was placed in such imminent
clanger that the horses were taken off, and the travellers and
drivers were glad to make their escape. On the next day not
a trace of the carriage was to be found, and there is every rea-
son to conclude that it was hurled over into the abyss. The
road would be cleared, it was expected, 18th or 19th, so as to
be passable with perfect safety.---Federal of Geneva of the
21st ult.

I.OVE, THE POLYPHONIST.—The consequence of

LONDON,
TUESDAY EVENING, APRIL 4,1837.

Yesterday was the day agreed on for the reassembling of
the House of Cr,mmons; but as only 36 Members were
present, no He use was made. The Pluralities Bill, the
Imprisonment. for Debt Bill, and the Registration fu-
Voters' Bill, stood for discussion. On going into Com-
mittee of Fupply, Colonel TiloslesoN had given notice el
his intenti'on to more " That the government of the army.
as now c•mducted, is aga'nst law, and no man is held to
obedience thereto ; and that no supply be granted till a re..
medy oe applied."

The Tories must be driven to great extremity for
the want of materials to support their cause, when they
lay hold of such trumpery meetings as that which they
tell us was held some day last week at Hastings, as
proofs of the increase of their pattizans. We wer:.
tempted by tli captivating tide " Conservative
Manifestation," followed by a second hardly less
inviting one, viz.—" Important Meeting at Hast-
ings," to look into a Morning Contemporari's ac-
()lint of the said Conservative Manifestation, and
a nicer hit of humbug it has not fallen to
our lot to detect for a long while. This " impor-
tant meeting" turns out to be a euzzle, got up at the
instance of the noted JosEPH PLANTA, Esq. The
said Joszytt, it may perhaps he as well to inform cur
readers, did not, as he himself soothinzly expresses it,
" succeed" at the last election for Hastings, and beinp-
exceedin[dy anxious to " succeed" at the next—small
blame to him for that, as Pat says—set his tools to
wolk with his usual dexterous management to brine
about this very desirable issue. There is, be it known,
a little knot of Tories in Hastings and its nei7hbour-
l!ood, who have complacently dubbed themselves '' The
Hastings and St. Leonard's Loyal and Constitutional
Association," whereas their proper style and title would
be " The Planta AsSociation." But to proceed. Jo-
S EPII fancying that a dissolution is not very improbable,
quietly gives the word—and 10, his Association as-
sembles with all the outward appearance of a sponta-
neous movement, and somewhat of the bluster of that
mock independence which toad-eaters are so often com-
pelled to assume. To be sure, there is one essential par-
ticular omitted—there is no specific object stated for
this " independent" meeting—but this oozes out in
the course of the proceedings, when it comes to Mr.
JOSEPH PLANTA'S turn to acknowledge the honour
—quite unexpected on his part, of course—of having
his health chunk by so respectable and constitutional
a body of men.
But it may be as well to notice the different speakers,
at this overwhelming display of Tory strength in the
southern parts of England, in the order in which they
exhibited themselvee to the magnificent and imposine
assembly, congregated -t the 6' Swan," in the town of
Hastings.
The person who was called to the high and mighty
office of filling the chair on this ever-memorable oc-
casion is named SUTHERLAND GRJEME, Esq. Who
or what this SUTHERLAND GRIEME may he—whether
" his growth be like the tufted fir," as is told of his
great namesake Sir JoHN the GRiEME, or whether
his stature does not exceed that of the " small com-
pany warred on by cranes," we are totally igno-
rant. The only thing we can say of him
with certainty is that which he says of himself—
namely, that he was " utterly incompetent" to the
duties of the situation in which his injudicious friends
placed him. He contrived, however, to utter a
" pretty considerable" quantity of the usual stuff of
which Tory speeches consist; and what he wanted
he made up from sources not his own, finishing
his introductory address by reciting a goodly
portion of the Litany of the Church of England, which,
by the by, we may remark, would have come more ap-
propriately from the Rev. Gentleman who followed him.
This was a Mr. STONESTREET, who, of course, roared
out lustily the old cry of " the Church is in danger."
Doubtless it is. And what is most to be regretted is,
that it is in danger from the Clergy, and from them
alone. This feeling, he says, haunts him wherever
he goes, and no wonder when we find him confessing.,
that the Church, as its affairs have been hitherto admi-
nistered—or, as he phrases it," the union of religion with
