tonstruaed four. rows of bencheS-, on Which were
Seated the four first cla'sses of the Nobility. The
benches on the right of the Throne were also occupied
by Ladies, those on the left by Gentlemensand L -
dies, The Ladies were all splendidly arrayed in
Court dresses ; and among those on the right stood
conspicuously at the end of the topmost bench, the
beautiful Countess Panin, the Lady of the Minister
for the Foreign Department. The Gentlemen were
mostly dressed in rich uniforms, all ornamented with
the ribbons and other brilliant iniignia of diffaent
Orders.

A tournament took place at Vienna, or► the isth
ult. in celebration of the Empress's birth day.

Four young Noblemen, armed at all points, with
their horses caparisoned in mail, and all the forma-
lity of the ancient tournaments, entered the lists,
and contested the palm with great ability:

A Russian Princess lately petitioned the Emperor,
in treating to be exempt from the operation of the
law, in regard to bills of exchange, &c. observing
in her memorial, that as the Emperor was above the
law, he could extend to her the favour she solicited.
The Emperor replied : " To be above the law is,
if I could, what I would not be ; for in all the'
world, I acknowledge no power as legitimate but
that which flows from the law."

The excess of luxury has brought mankind back
in some respeas to the spot whence they set our, in
a state of want. In part of Italy the consumption
of Flour has driven men to the use of Actirns as a
substitute, and Professor ROSA, ill that Country,
has published an account of a Method by which ex-
cellent Bread may be made by the mixture of onte
third part of the powder of Acorns. He depiriv.';zs
this powder of its harsh and bitter flavour by
immerging it several times in water. He even
makes Bread of it by mixing it in equal quantities
with Wheaten Flour ; but this Bread, though
wholesome and agreeable, is not found to be quite
so white as the common sort, nor to imbibe broth
or wine so freely.

MERCIER is busily employed in investigating the
matter and substance of which the Sun is formed.—
He is decidedly of opinion, that the rati, material is
cold iron. All its energy, according to him, is de-
rived from its connexion with the earth, and if we
even go, so far above it as the top of a mountain, we
become sensible that the nearer we approach to it,
the colder it gets. The writer, however, observes,
with truth, at least, in that instance, that all his
discoveries will not prevent a many when he is cold,
from preferring the sunny to the shady side of the
way.

JtAN Box ST. ANDRE ha 3 been particulaily for-
tunate in escaping from
.the hands of the Potentate.,
in the South of Europe .and the North of Barbary.
They were not perhaps aware of the kindness which
this Apotre de la Recvolution, as he was styled in the
reign of jacebinisin, intended for them. They
might, perhaps, otherwise- net have been 'ingrate-
ful, and we might have had the revival of the
story of the Joey of Algiers, and Jean Bon.

It does not seem that the French are 'yet at
all on a par with us in that art by which readers are
entraped by an anecdote, or a political refiedion,
to read the history of a wonderful cure, or a cheap
article. Many of our .Lndo,n
..ptedfs figure away in
the Paris Papers, as authentic instances of the good
fortune of the English in possessing such remedtes)
and such means of saving and getting a fortune.
The following was absoldtely the dress of Otte *Of
the nidst fashionable of our Bond street loungers, a
young man possessed of zoool. per annum) at En-
field, on the day the Boxing match between Belcher
and Buike was to have taken place :—Check shirt ;
coloured silk handkerchief round the neck; scarlet
cloth waistcoat, richly embroidered with grease and
dirt ; coat, out at elbows, and below the arms.; Conic-
roy breeches, loose at knees ; worsted stockings', gar-
tered up with red garters ; large round silver buckles
in shoes ; face rather dirty; beard long, snuffy n6se,
quid of tobacco in 'cheek ; the hair or wig unpow--
dered and cropped, the same as for the most fashion-
able drawing rooms at the West.:end of the town.

A voting Lady; named Powis, some flays since,
in crossing the Rivulet called MoOr BrOok; between
Bridgenorth and Stokeldnn, was; by' a sudden swel-
ling of the stream; washed from her horse and
drowned.

A man .of the name of Cast was apprehended on
Monday last at Thirsk, who had lodged near three
months at a public-house in that town, where he
Made and uttered counterfeit sixpenCes without he.
ing suspeeted, till he offered two or three of them at
the .:.hop of a hardWareman, in payment for some
old copper pans. This purchase excited surprize,
and on examining his motley it was found all bad,
and he was apprehended'. The old, copper had been
bought for beating into thin sheets, out of which the
sixpences were cut, and afterwards washed over.- He
was committed for trial, and it is believed there arc
many such charaCiers in the neighbourhood.

Early on Thursday morning a farmer neat New-
castle, who is very infirm, supposed he heard some
persons picking locks in the lower., part of the .
house. On listening attentively, he could dis-
tinguish different voices; and having no man ser-
vant who, slept under his roof, he was afraid in his
feeble state to go among them ; he had the pre-
sence• of mind, however, to get some large cheeses
out of a drying room near his chamber, and trun-
dle them one after another down stairs. All was
soon silent, and he ventured with his maid-servant
to examine the house. They found a beaufettc, in
which was a little old plate, forced open, and his
bureau nearly so ; but only a few spoons were gone,
which the thieves had pocketed before they were
alarmed by the rolling of the cheeses. They left
behind them a few small keys and a great coat.—
There were :motes and cash in the bureau to the
amount of zoo!,
Last week fine green pease were pulled in the gar-
den of Drumgeith, near Dundee, in as great per.
feetion as at the beginning of summer.
There is now in the garden of Burnside, near For-
bar, a tree on which there are blossoms; young fruit
the size da walnut, and apples fully rile.

coukT Or: KINGrs BENCH., SATURDAY, Nov. :,
Mr. GARROW moved for a Rhle to shetv Causl ..
why proceedings shoUld not be staid in an Aaior
brought by one Tbakivs, until he shall have giver t
SeCtitity for Coats. He moved this upon the ground -
that the Plaintiff is, at this mordent, a Debtor in
the Fleet -Prison. That he made an application to
.be discharged under the late general Insolvent Aa,
but which application was rejected on account of
the gross frauds which appeared to have been corn-
mitted.by hirn upon his Creditors... Besides this;
'the Plaintiff /Omtirts had beCome a Bankrupt, and
the Defeadaiit in this Aftion; ,had notice • from the
Assignees not to pay him any money that might be
due to him. The Court would, perhaps; be a little
surprised to hear that a Bankrupt was pursuing a ci-
vil suit in his own name ; he had obtained his
Certificate, bin he had obtained it fraudulently, as
it Was stated, although he had indeed made an Af.
fiddvit that he had obtained.it fairly; ; upon which
there was an Indidment against him for Perjhry.—
He had, under a knowledge Of all. these circum.
stances, set his cause down for trial at the next Sites
tings at Gaildhall, Mr. GARROW hoped, under
all these -circumstances, the Court would be of opi.
nion that ,proceedings in such an ACtion as thisi
ought to be staid, until the Plaintiff shall have gi-
ven security lot Costs.
Lord KENYON said, that this sort of applicatioh
could not, with propriety, be assented to ;• it was
quite new.--The Court could not stop the ACtion
of a poor man, nor of an infamous man ; where the
party suing was abroad, out of the jhrisaidion of •
the Court, then it was regular to stay proCeedings;
until security be given for the Costs, bet when the
party was here, and alikenable to Law, the case was,
other Wise. Every person in England was solvent
in one Sense or Other; that is, capable of giving sal
tisfattion to all legal denial-ids either in his purse or
his person.---Rule refused.
Mr. GARRow then moved for leave to take -mit
execution against a Defendant, notwithstanding, a
Writ of Error was •depending. This, he said, he
moved upon very special circumstances. The
Court • had frequently to lament that there were
such terms in Westminster Hall as " Sham. Pleas;
Sham Demurrers, or Writs of Error for delay."—
Not only one, but all, of these Terms were applh,
cable to the case in which he moved ;, and by, the
use of the: tricks of which these were the names, a
Plaintiff had been kept out of a • very largel sum of
money, the interest of which would be snore than' . .
the costs; which the Defendant would eventually
have.to pay : he had
.an advantage which was not
common to Defendants in such cases of delay of
payinent of debts; for he was an Attorney who
manuftiaured his own pleadings, and who conk': not
be arrested upon the Judgment. The Rule which
the Court had followed in ordering execution to be
sued cur, .notwithstanding a Writ of -Error Was
depending, was., that the party who brought that
Writ. had declared that it was for the purpose of ,
delay. Here the party • had so declared most tin.- , ,
equivocally, not by words; but ads. The Adion
'was brought by the Administrator of the et-reds of
another, upon a Promissory Note for 10001: given
by the Defendant to the Intestate in his lik-ttine ;
to which ACtion the Defendant pleaded a Plea of
Judgment recovered, which he, an Attorney must
knoW to be false. judgment at last passed against
. hint, npori which he brought a Writ of Error,
which he, an Attorney, must know was for the
-. pus:pose:of delay, and which would keep the Plain.
tiff out of this money until next Easter Term.—
, Such praaices were injurious to the char:l6ler of the
Profession; and he hoped the Court would bring tilt:
Defendant before them to state what -his Error was.
Lord KENYON---" I am afraid of laying down a
new Rule, or breaking in upon one which has been
followed now for many years, which is., that if the
party declares his Writ of Error was 'brought for
delay, execution shall issue as if there was no such
Writ, but otherwise ; and if we break through our
Rules; which are general, for the sake of meeting
the justice of a particular case, great uncertainty,
' and from thence great inconvenience, will arise in
the administration of justice."--Rule refused.
Lord KENYON observed, that next Tuesday was
a day for Argument; and also the last day for
, moving for. New Trials--.-it was impossible to go
' on With both in one day, and therefore the better
course would be, to take the Motions on Tuesday,
and defer the Arguments to the next paper day,
which was ordered accordingly.
The Argument of the Case of BERKLEY c*.,. Coss.
sms was ordered to stand over for the present, ort
. the suggestion of Mr. PARK, that Mr. ADAM, who
• was to argue on it, was prevented by a domestic
misfortune, from attending so early in the Term.
, •It was then settled by the Bench, for the
general convenience, that on Monday (being Lord
Mayor's Day), the Court should not sit until half
past eleven, but that Mr. justice GRbSE should be
in Court half an hour sooner to take Bail and M 0...
tiOns of course; &c.' . ,

Among the rejoicings on account of the return
of Peace and Plenty, that of the Volunteer Corps
called the Staolk Village Association, ought not
to be forgotten : on Monday last they gave an
elegant entertainment at Bury St. Edmund's to the
Rev.. Dr. ORD, who, as a Magistrate, commands
the Corps. The above Association is well worthy
of i:nitaticn in-every part of the Country : it was
formed under the auspices of Dr. Oat), upon the
free principles of a Yeomanry Corps ; it consists
either of real Yeomen, or of very principal Land.
holders, armed; mounted, and disciplined entirely
at their ownexpence, with no other distinaion of
dress than a.plain blue coat and white sword-belt.
A night-watch is about to be established at Cam.
bridges in 'consequence of the numerous burglaries
which have recently been comMitted there.
On Thursday morning last a man was found dead
at a shop-door in the neighbourhood of Clare Market.
It is supposed he was intoxicated, and being unahls
to proceed, he had seated himself there and fell
asleep.
On Saturday morning the man employed to ward'
the Carron Wharf in Thames.street, was found dead*
His death is attributed to the breaking of a *ado
Vefisci, in consequence of Violent coughin4.

The locality of hick 'or fortune, however sneered
at by some, arid treated by others as an idea chime:—
rical and absurd, is a persuasion, nevertheless,
firmly entertained by many persons, who in the ge_
neral concerns of life are deemed prudefit and' wise.
Can a stronger instance be given of this' persuasion,
than the frequent contests at cards for an evident
lucky side of the table (commonly called the winning
seats), or even 'a fortunate chair. ? Without pre-
tending to investigate the arcane of chance, or ra-
ther the nature of those powers which are supposed
to govern it, sufficient' it is to notke the filet, and
whiCh indisputably is, that for" whole evenings' a
run of good luck shall be almost exclusively confined
to particular spots or situations at: a card Or any
other gaming-table. The, same propitious or local
run of fortune has been observable at,Lottery-officei;
for the last four Lptteries; the grept, majority of
their capital Prizes were sold at • POPE'S Office,
-Royal Exchange; facing the Bank, and where, in
truth, good fortune may be said to have been almost
stationary. What is obviously, then, 'the argument
of adventurers ?—i, If we have been unsuccessful at
other Offices, what can be our loss by purchasing
:tickets or Shares at an Office so remarkably. fortu-
nate
?" But if there be a governing,inllueUce as to
the locality of luck, and which, • from its 'frequent
experience, seems to be unquestionable, what infa-
tuation should. induce us not to give a' prefer6lce to
an Office, which, for asuccession of Lotteries, has
n
been the know fa vourite of Fortune ? For, 'although
the goddess be blind herself, there can be no reason
why we shotild shut our eyes to the glaring evi-
dence- of facts,- established bey ono Lhe power of con-
troversy.
01- The Irish Lottery begins drawing the zUth
instant.

" Time and chance happeneth to all ,men,"—
most true ! but, be men ever so lucky, tlx.re must
two things concur-Ist, Occasion to bring, that
luck into play ; and adly, Promptitude in seizing
the„occasion : this being an unforced and/pregnant
conclusion, it remains only to make the lucky, ap-
plication to the ensuing Irish Lottery. Dryden,
who well knew the nature of good fortune, has said,
I" The lucky have whole days, Which still they ebuse;
Others have only hours, and those they lose."

The true degree of. Fortune's meridian can hest be
measured previous to.the 16th of this-month. The
Lottery firmament is studded Ns ith stars of the first
magnitude,, which, as Milton says of "'Beauty's
eyes,,,
Rain influence, and give the prize."

If it be true,. as we are told it is, that ,more per-
sons have " died by the lancet than by the sword," ,
how much are we indebtekto Dr. SOLOMON, who
so strenuously treats ajainst the imprudent use of;
phlebotomy,, in 'his ever-to-be admired and cele-:
brated " Guide to Health;" nor is he satisfied by i
thus rescuing thousands from the jaws of death by
the too common pradice of bloOklettingi but has;
devoted his timvand studies; to, another laudable:
pursuit, namely,. tharof ". administering to a mind!
diseased ;" for it is universally allowed, that' there
is beyond a'doubt-an intimate connexion between
the body and the mind—if the one is affected, the
other is equally out of order. The Cordial Balm
of Gilead bas risen in repute to, the veil pinnacle!
of fame. Universally as it is resorted to incat,:s of;
weakness and emaciation, so also, are.its benign and!,
health-restoring qualities equally universal.., Some,
. perhaps, unacquainted with its 1a virtues, not having it
perused that -interesting ' Guide ' (which must_be
but few indeed), may be induced to ask, ",What
is the Balm of Gilead, fit for ? what complaint does ,
it cure ?" To answer, this, it will be necessary to

.- Hold up the mirror to Nature. Stim:s rt.
Let `those who are affliaed in the following manner.;
.refleti on the. CAUSE that produced such ,havoc - upon
" the wholesome appetites and powers of life :"
Disordered stomach,. dry cough,. weakness in the
voice, hoarseness, shortness of breath upon the least
exercise, and relaxation .of the whole system. Those
affiitied with, paleness, languor of the eyes, weak.
ness of sight or memory,. should take time
tier, as Linnaeus says, that-".youth is the important'
period for forming a robust constitution," and that
" nothing into be dreaded so mush as premature:
excess.'.' The foundation of a happy old age,- is a:
good :constitution ill, youth ; temperance and Inc.;
deration at that age, are passports to happy: grey
hairs. Nothing cari,,be better described than in,the!
words of Armstrong :

• . For .want of timely care,
Millions have died of medical wounds.'

For such as these, then; this healing Balm is suit-,
able. COmplaints stifled under the caTelcon
lation of NerVous and Consumptive, are its proper'
climax; the one it will eradicate, the other will be
cured by_ its influence. The Balm of Gilead has
produced more good in, this country tl.6n any medi-
cine since the formation of a Materica Me Ica.
