SPORTING EXTRAORDINARY.—A gentleman
who resides about ten miles from Battle, went out last
!reek with the intention of bagging a little game, but
found that he could not conveniently carry home all he
shot, as he unexpectedly found three sheep had received
the contents of his gun. It is only fair to say that he
immediately paid for them.—Sussex Express.
IRISH HERRING FISHERY.—The boisterous
state of the weather has been a great interruption to
our harvest fishery, which has not been as productive
this season as usual, the quantity of herrings taken be-
ing very limited. In a late paper we observed a para-
graph stating that one of her Majesty's gun-brigs was or-
dered to the coast of Scotland for the protection of the
fisheries in that quarter ; if an application were made to
toaproper quarter, we have no doubt a similar protec-
n
would be afforded to this extensive coast, where

RE.

REPTON'S LANDSCAPE GARDENING,
WITH NOTES, &c , Br J. C. LOUDON', FL.S.

The Fourth Nuinber of this work, which is to be
completed in twelve numbers, has just been pub-
lished. It contains two useful chapters on Fences
and Pleasure Grounds, and an account, with the
modern improvements, of Burley-on•the-Hill, the
Seat of the Earl of Winchelsea, in Rutlandshire,
and two well-finished wooden cuts of this magnifi-
cent mansion. The notes to the work by Mr.
Loudon are generally marked by good sense and
taste. His remarks on parks are peculiarly
appropriate. A great park round a gentle-
man's scat has always something dreary and
solitary about it, however well stocked with deer •
or black cattle. Even the Great Park at Windsor,
though visited by numerous strangers, and attached
to the most magnificent Royal residence in Eu-
rope, and abounding with thousands of forest trees,
inspires an idea of gloom and solitude even in the
gayest season of the year. A private gentleman's
park in a remote part of the country, when extend-
ing beyond a certain space, is absolutely insuf-
ferable. " One great error in Mr. Brown's
followers," says Mr. Loudon, " has been the
unnecessary extent of parks. It is my opinion that,
provided the boundary can be properly disguised,
the largest parks need not exceed 200 or 300 acres,
else they are apt to become farms within a pale, for
they are forests rather than parks."

LONDON MEDICAL GAZETTE FOR

OCTOBER,

In this Number there is an important paper by
Dr. Bigsby, Physician to the Newark Infirmary,
on a subject which is at present exciting much in-
terest among the medical profession—namely, vac-
cination. In a former Number we gave an outline
of the Report of the Provincial Medical and Sur-
gical Association, held at Liverpool, in July, and
this communication of Dr. Bigsby fully bears out
the statement in that report, as regards the decline
of vaccination—the growing rage among the lower
classes for inoculation, and the vast proportion
of grown up persons who have passed through
neither small-pox nor cow-pox. The Author
writes in very desponding terms on these points,
and recommends, what he has himself adopted at
Newark, a permanent record of the state of the po-
pulation with regard to small-pox and vaccination,
" as it might prove a useful stimulus in favour, I
am almost ready to say, of an expiring blessing, by
revealing the low ebb to which in these districts
vaccination is unfortunately fallen." In another
place he adds—

It is not to the credit of an enlightened comma-

pity that after 38 years' diligent promulgation of Dr.
ienner's inestimable discovery nearly two-thirds of a
municipal ward in a respectable town on the Great
North Road should have passed through the small-
pox, and that 1,100 should have submitted to this
loathsome disease advisedly.
It is not in the power of the medical practitioners to
put an end to inoculation. If they should refuse to
perform this operation, a sufficient number of unedu-
cated inoculators would start up immediately, and find
good remuneration, as is the case in and about Newark
at this moment.

Vaccine institutions should be again placed in acti-
vity in the large towns, having salaried vaccinators at
convenient out-stations. Poor-law unions should en•
courage vaccination by giving their surgeons is. ad. for
each person satisfactorily protected.
Information should be distributed through the towns
and villages, from the pulpit and by popular tracts, re-
newed every two years.
No servant should be hired unless he or she can show
marks of having undergone cow-pox or small-pox.
The same caution should be observed before admitting
any person into a Sunday or national school, into any
dock yard, or public establishment of whatever kind.
The inmates of houses of industry, of correction, or
jails should be protected also as soon as possible.

Were these measures persevered in for five years,
vaccination would assume its rightful postion, and the
small-pox be all but extirpated.

EPISCOPAL MAGAZINE. October, 1830.
In this Number there is a long and fearful article
entitled " Statistics of Popery," in which the
writer chimes in with Mr. O'Connell, though in a
very different mood. While NI r. O'Connell sings
paeans and looks forward, his heart overflowing with
delight, to the day when all Christians shall
be gathered unto " the one Shepherd of one fold ;"
the Reverend Mortimer O'Sullivan, for lie alone
could pen the article, pours out his lamentations in
the following lugubrious, magniloquent, and awful
strains, in the form of a prologue to a tragedy or an
introduction to an epic poem :

" Popery—the cursc., of every country in which it has se-
cured a lodgment; the source of turbulence and crime, of
cruel bloodshed and remorseless persecution ; the concen-
trated essence of bigotry, of consummate duplicity, and
treachery ; at whose accursed torch the flames of martyr-
dom have been kindled; at whose beck the inquisitorial
sword unsheathed, and the rack unveiled on every soil in
Christendom ; whose shrine is clouded with the infernal
incense of a thousand idolatries, and encircled with the
murmers of ten thousand horrifying blasphemies; whose
altars have groaned with myriads of human victims • and
whose foundations reap solidity and permanence alone from
the utter prostration of all that is lofty and generous in
man ;—yes, Popery ! the bane of England, the arrester of
all progressive improvement, national or social, the tyrant
of conscience, the inveterate antago list of liberty, the
forger of fetters for the human mind, the prolific fountain
of vice, the colossal scourge of humanity, the MASTERPIECE
OF SATAN, again stalks the land, and threatens Britain
with a deluge of sedition and absurdity, of bloodshed and
rebellion. There is no more certain sign of national decay,
no surer symptoms of moral degradation and the debase-
ment of a population, and, at the same time, no more in-
dubious evidence of the righteous judgments of the Al-
mighty descending upon the land, than is fut nished by the
rapid spread of principles alike subversive of morality, of
freedom, and of justice, and the re-entanglement of the
public mind in the meshes of a net woven for the destruc-
tion of empires and the eternal perdition of immortal souls."

And the epilogue is no less poetic, but still more
war-like, for M. O'Sullivan is determined to have
no truce with Rome—he proclaims war to the
knife, and if by fighting valiantly he cannot stem
the torrent of iniquity, he is resolved " to sink in the
mighty waste of waters." " Wouid that England,"
he exclaims—

" Woold tt,at England would rouse from her death .slum-
ber and shake the torpor from her limbs! The colossal folds
of Popery are rapidly encircling her, and threaten speedily
to crush her into nothingness. Its poison is already flowing
in her life's blood ; its envenomed sting is all but fleshed
in her heart's core. Where is now the spirit of the vener-
able Cranmer, of Latimer, or of Ridley—where ? Does it
yet exist? or was it quenched in the ashes of their martyr-
dom ? It still exists. Yes : though the band of the true-
hearted be but as Gideon's troop of worthies, there are men
in whose breasts the lambent flame of essential Protestant-
ism still exists ; who, with " the Braids" for their standard,
and their motto, " No PEACE WITH ROME" for their battle
cry, will yet fight valiantly for the truth, and, if the sun of
Britain's glory be indeed eternally set, will wish for no
more exalted privilege—no more distinguished honour, than
to perish with her greatness, to sink in the mighty waste
of waters, true to the monumental wreck, which their zeal
and their exertion could not rescue from ruin."

THE ADJOURNED INQUEST ON ALDRIDGE,
THE POLlCEMAN.—Yesterday morning, pursuant to
adjournment, the jury re-assembled at the Swan Inn,
Lea, at ten o'clock. The eleven prisoners were brought
from the station-house, Blackheath-road, in an omnibus,
handcuffed and strongly guarded, as on the previous
examination. The prisoners, on alighting from the ve-
hicle, showed great levity, and appear to be a reckless
set. A strong body of police, under the direction of
Inspector Phipps, were present to preserve order in the
crowded court, and the proceedings were listened to with
intense interest. Mr. Sidery, the foreman of the Jury,
having on Thursday visited the spot where the fatal
affray took place, for the information of his brother
jurors, laid a plan of it before them. Mr. Inspector
Phipps produced half-a-dozen stones as a sample of the
stones which were thrown ; they were flint, and would
weigh from two ounces to three-quarters of a pound.—
A number of witnesses were examined, but no new evi-
dence of importance was adduced.—After half an hour's
consultation between the Coroner and the Jury, the
inquest was adjourned till Tuesday next, at two o'clock.
BRUSSELS, OCT. 2.—The average price of
wheat last week was 24f. 38c., and of rye 13f. 76c.
The regulation of import and export duties remain as
before.

SINGULAR ACCIDENT.—A great deal of con-
fusion was created on the St. Katherine's steam-packet
wharf on Wednesday night, from the following cause :
Between eleven and twelve o'clock the steam-ship
Royal William was getting under way, preparatory to
proceeding on her voyage to Leith. When four fine
horses belonging to his Grace the Duke of Hamilton,
each secured in a large wooden box open at the sides,
were being conveyed from the quay up a platform on to
the deck of the ship, one of the animals got exceed-
ingly- restive on being conveyed across the platform, and
managed to overturn the wooden machine he was con-
fined in, and by struggling
fell, cage and all, over the
side into a lighter below, by which a labourer had a
very narrow escape of his life. The animal was even-
tually got safely on board without having sustained any
injuries.

milord, who has a very fine liold of turnips, has taken
