froili the disposition which has so frequently of late
manifested by Coroners' Juries to prostitute
their functions to political and factinOs pnepti§e§, iii
utter disregard of fact, evidence, and law, Or in the
deplorable incapacity of understanding what any of
these things mean. We adVeli td this
occurrence piliMpaily, however, on account of the
mean and malignant use to which.it has been applied
by the organs of Lerd Melbourne's
MIA
We
cann9t express the disOt MIA We read an ar-
ticle in the MOrning.Chronicle of yesterday, in which,
froin this and another similar events it is inferred that
the highest military authofitlea in the i'otiniiY Who
permit ladidier's in wear their sidearms when not upon
duty are indifferent to the lives of their fellow-subjects..
We copy the conclusion of this Ministerial article, for
the purpose of exposing its spirit l--
" Some of our contemporaries attribute the d( termina-
tion of the heads of the army to the Machiavelian policy
or breeding hatred between the soldiers and the people, but
we attribute it to no such deep design. We are inclined to
believe that there is really nothing more at the bottom of
the determination than a piece of silly affectation. It is
thought, no doubt, that to refuse to make any concession
to a demand, however just, of the people, is a proof of
spirit. Of this the people may rest assured, that if they
do not take the matter seriously up they will continue to
be exposed to the insults of soldiers armed with bayonets.
The Horse Guards may be inclined to capitulate after a
few murders, especially:if public indignation be roused by
the less of some individual of consideration. As Chaplin
is merely a poor man, it is probable that this matter will
have no result."

We have not seen for many years any emanation of
the British Press so thoroughly imbued as the above
passage with the spirit of unmitigated Jacobinisin.
Our Ministerial Contemporary insults the people whom
he pretends to protect as much as the military autho-
rities whom he calumniates and reviles. What por-
tion of the people are in the habit of mixing with
soldiers in the tap-rooms of public-houses ? What
portion of the people care on their own account
one farthing whether soldiers do or do not wear
their side arms when off duty ? Do not butchers,
unreproved, go into public-houses with their instru-
ments of slaughter hanging to their girdles ? Do not
various classes of artisans wear habitually about their
persons tools as capable as a bayonet of inflicting,
desperate and mortal wounds ? And does any-
body suppose that they should be restrained from
doing so, because now and then an inebriated and
furious member of their class employs the knife,
the shears, the chisel, or the awl to a fatal purpose ?
Will not a clasp-knife, intended to cut nothing but
bread and cheese, kill as well as a bayonet ? Why,
then, should soldiers alone, of all classes of mankind,
be deemed unfit to carry about them anything com-
posed of cold iron, :and having edge or point ? The
whole controversy is absolute nonsense, and no one
with the least pretension to common sense would ever
have set it on foot, but for the idle hope which has
been cherished that it may, on certain favourable occa-
sions, contribute to the design of creating hostility be-
tween the soldiers and the people, and afford the op-
portunity of stigmatising " the heads of the army."
The " heads of the army," unless Whig-Radicals
should arrive at a stage of preferment of which it is
evident they have little hope, will not be guided by
" the Machiavelian policy of breeding hatred between
the soldiers and the people ;" they will not be in-
fluenced by the " silly affectation" of an opinion, that
" to refuse to make any concession to a demand, how-
ever just, of the people, is a proof of spirit ;" they will
not regard the violent death of a fellow-subject as an
incident the less deplorable because he was a poor man
and not " some individual" of " consideration ;" but
neither will they convey to British soldiers an intima-
tion that, in the opinion of " the heads of the army,"
they are unfit to be entrusted with their arms when
they mix in society with their fellow-subjects, and thus
stamp the more humble ranks of the military profes-
sion with a stigma as unmerited as it would be pecu-
liar and invidious.—Morning Post.

A handsome Gothic monument has just been erected
in the,little village church of Laverstock, near Salisbury, to
the memory of the late Sir James Burrough. The monu-
ment bears the following inscription, in old English charac-
ters :—" In memory of Sir James Burrough, Knight, late
of this parish, and of Bedford-square, in the county of
Middlesex. He studied the law with industry, and prac-
tised it for many years with such integrity, ability, and suc-
cess, that he was created, in 1816, one of the Judges of
the Court of Common Pleas. In 1828 he retired from
that office to a private life, and the enjoyments arising from
benevolence, charity, and a cheerful temper, increased by
the attentions of his family and friends, and died on the
25th of March, 1837, in the eighty-eighth year of his age.
His remains were deposited in the vault of the Temple
church, London. This tablet was erected by Anne Bur-
rough, his only surviving child."
Monday morning, between eleven and twelve
o'clock, his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge re-
viewed the whole regiment of the Coldstream Guards, of
which the Royal Duke is Colonel. The men marched on
to the ground a few minutes after ten, and the Duke of
Cambridge, attended by a numerous staff, arrived about a
quarter to eleven. The regiment, under the command of
Colonel Fremantle, was then formed into line and after-
wards into companies, when they marched by his Royal
Highness in slow and quick time. A high culogium was
passed upon them by the Royal Duke, and the men then
returned to their barracks. The band was retained for
some time afterwards, and played in its usual beautiful
style several pieces of music from favourite operas. The
company was very select, and many ladies of rank and
fashion were present.
DISCOVERY OF HUMAN REMAINS.—On corn•
mencing the widening of the road at the bottom of West-
street, in this town, the workmen have, at the depth of
about a yard below the surface of the garden ground, on
the left hand, dug up several human skulls and bones,
which may be easily accounted for, from the circumstance
of the spot having been the burial ground of the Church
of St. Lawrence, which stood there many centuries ago.
At what period that Church was founded is very uncertain,
but it was stated five hundred years since that it was in a
state of ruin ; and in the reign of Edward 111. it was for-
mally dissolved by a Royal decree. Of course there is no
trace of it at the present day. The skulls are in a more
perfect state than might have been expected, and several
teeth are firmly fixed in them.—Lcanzington Gazette.
During the first six months of the present year the
mines of Russia yielded 143 ponds and 13 pounds of gold,
and 62 poods and 27 pounds of plating.
Mr. Joseph Thompson, of Ashover, had, on Tiling-
day night last, his pocket picked in the Haymarket of bills
and notes to the amount of 4954—Derbyshire Courier.
WEY/I ILL FAIR.—The hop fair began on Thurs-
day, although but little business was then transacted. The
prices obtained for Farnham hops were about from 81. to
91. Country hops sold from 71. 7s. to 81. The number
of pockets grounded this year in the Farnham row was
2,223 ; in the county rows, 4,700 ; while the Farnham row
last year contained 3,000 pockets, and the county rows,
5,249. This shows a considerable falling off in the growth
this year. Our account says much business was doing on
Friday, and the fair was so crowded as to render the
walks almost impassable.—Hanzpshire Telegraph.
SKETCH AT TATTERSALL'S.--The air which
pervades the room and its arrangements is the ideal of
playing at 'Change. While grouped around are the mer-
chant nobles of the land, driving their bargains with loga-
rithmic cunning, seated at the corner table is the newspaper
reporter, noting down each fluctuation of the odds with
fractional minuteness. On ordinary occasions you will not
find there the leaders of the racing world, Lords Exeter,
Jersey, Chesterfield—neither their Graces of Rutland,
Richmond, nor Grafton ; more freqnently than any of his
compeers being to be seen the impersonation of the old
English squire, in very yellow leathers, top-boots uncon-
scious of oxalic acid, a blue coat, and a spencer of the same
hue—the Duke of Portland. Most prominent, and evi-
dently regarded as of commanding influence, is the Right
Hon. Charles Grovillc. This gentleman has neither a
large nor an average turf establishment even for its size,
but whether for himself alone, or representing hiti friends,
he shows formidably at Hyde Park Corner, and in the ring
en Newmarket Heath. He has the reputation of being one
o f the most skilful handicappers of the day, the most ac-
complished of all modern professors of that most intricate
and obnoxious art, being, singularly enough, a son of Nep-
tune, the universally popular companion and excellent sea-
man, the Hon. Capt. Rous.—Monthly Magazine.
One day last week, as the sawyers in the yard of
Messrs. Pruidey, builders, in Droitwich, were opening a
large piece of elm, they found embedded in the timber a
bird's nest containing five eggs. The eggs were all perfect
in colour and quite sound. The wood surrounding the nest
was from five to six inches in thickness, and free from any
pressure or imperfection.

BI,RTH EXTRAORDINARY.—A short time since,
a labour er's wife, named Matthews, or Mathers, living about
a mile fro Ellesmere, in this county, was delivered of four
children, on of which, a girl, survives. The poor woman
u'
has had many kind visitors on the occasion.—Shrewthury
Chronicle.
