THE NATIONAL EDUCATION

SCHEME.

PAGTEST AGAINST AGREEING TO THE ADDRESS TO HER
MAJESTY ON THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY'S RISO.

TIONS ON EDUCATION.
Dissentient,

1. Because the Church of England, ashy law established,
has been for three centuries in possession of great wealth,
and, being intrusted with the education of the people have
not performed their duty in that respect, as has been proved
by the gross ignorance of the peasantry, more particularly
in the vicinity of Canterbury.
2. Because the Church of England established in Ireland
infinitely more wealthy than the Church in England, had,
for 70 years and upwards, the disposal of enormous Parlia-
mentary grants, and of other vast funds fOr the support of
charter and other schools, into which a catechism was in-
troduced, teaching the Roman Catholic children that their
parents were wicked and damnable heretics, thereby de-
stroying the most endearing duties of social life, and the
charter schools were ultimately and of necessity closed in
consequence of their proved immorality, and the pollution
in some instances of the infant scholars by the masters.

TALAPES" OR CLUB-FOOT.—We all know
how the whole current of By,ron's existence was embittered,
even as it were at the fountain-head, by the malformation
of a limb, which, though not a positive deformity in him,
was nevertheless the source of eternal self-reviling and
irrational humiliation. We know, too, the life-long
wretchedness that many parents have endured in conse-
quence of those accidents of birth which are most unrea-
sonably regarded as " monstrosities" in their offspring, in
the catalogue of which none appears to them more griev-
ous than the Talapes or club-foot. And yet, strange to
say, all the experiments of surgical skill, and all the re-
searches- of professional men, however eminent, proved
alike unsuccessful in devising a perfect and permanent re.
medy for such defects till within the last few bears ; when
a perilous but successful effort was made by an operation on
the tendon Achilles to relieve the muscles of the leg and
foot from the undue tension in which the seemingly natu-
ral and incurable deformity had its origin. The success of
that operation has been followed by the most beneficial
effects in every instance in which an adequate degree of
ability, science, and skill has been brought to the attempt.

TII E WELLINGTON TANDEM —The Tories
formerly were the proprietors of the State Coach, but
by mismanagement, carelessness and extravagance, they
became bankrupt in character and reputation, were de-
clared insolvent, went into the Gazette, and have never
been able to get whitewashed. They next attempted to
ride as passengers in the Derby Dilly, but the springs of
that crazy vehicle soon gave way under the dead weight of
so much lumber, and it was deserted by, all except
.the fiery
Jehu and his long-legged cad, Graham: At last, they
have nothing left but the Wellington Tandem with old
Waterloo for the leader and Bobby for the Wheeler in it,
and even that seems in danger of being overturned into
the first ditch, inasmuch as a teapot storm rebellion has
broken out amongst the ostlers and stable boys and grooms
—grooms in waiting, poor fellows I they have been long
enough—of the concern, who swear that if the driver does
not whip up his tits and make them "go the pace," they
will damage the harness, cut the traces, break the shafts,
take out the linchpins, or perpetrate some mischief or other
which shall condemn the carriage and its team to be laid up
in ordinary for ever. In plain words, the honeymoon of
Toryism, which they told us was to last to the end of the
world, has suddenly terminated. —Liverpool Albion.
The Somerset County Gazette, though convey-
ing the same gratifying intelligence relative to the state of
the crops generally, as is contained in all the other coun-
try papers, states, that " the orchards are almost bare of
fruit. Here and there we find a tree with a fair sprinkling
on the boughs, but on the greater portion of the trees,
there is not an apple to be seen. The frosts of May de-
stroyed the abundant blossom from which so much was
anticipated.

Last Monday week, Vincent was removed to
London by habeas corpus, to appeel to the Court of
Queen's Bench on the subject of his bail. On Tuesday
he was brought up before Mr. Justice Patteson, at cham-
bers, on which occasion Mr. Whateley appeared as counsel
for the prosecution, and Mr. Roebuck for the prisoner.
Mr. Roebuck having stated for whom he appeared, pro-
ceeded to state that the examining magistrates had been
frightened, and in their terror had acted most outrageously
in requiring bail, which was most enormous for a journey-
man printer. Mr. Whateley said that two sureties only
should be accepted ; but that 5001. bail might be made up
by four or fire persons. Mr. Justice Patteson said he did
not think it unreasonable bail. Mr. Roebuck then applied
to his Lordship to take bail for the appearance of the
defendant, without imposing the condition—" to be of
be good behaviour for twelve months," His Lordship
said that he would require the defendant and his bail to be
bound for his good behaviour until the assizes, but did not
think it necessary to extend the sureties beyond the as-
assizes. Mr. Whateley said the prosecutors would be
quite satisfied with the bail ; whereupon the matter termi-
nated, and Vincent having been bound in the sum of 5001.,
one of his bail in the sum of 250/., another in the sum of
1501., and another in the sum of 100/ , a supersedcas was
given to the gaoler, and Vincent was set at large.—Bristol
Mirror.

DREADFUL OCCURRENCE —Yesterday evening,
a woman was so dreadfully burned, as to obliterate almost
every trace and feature of humanity, and to leave not a
hope of life. The clothes of the poor creature caught fire
while lilting a kettle from the grate, but no one being in
the house at the moment of the dreadful occurrence but
herselr; she screamed with the energy of one exposed to
so horrible a fate, and a person having arrived who ex-
tinguished the flames, found the poor creature the pitiable
spectacle above stated. The sufferer has expired.—Merlin.
PEDESTRIAN FEAT.—On Wednesday last, a
man at Poulton, undertook to walk a distance of seven
miles in one hour, a feat which he accomplished, having
walked 7 miles and 140 yards in 1 hour and 40 seconds.

No. 39, ALBEMARLE-STREET, PICCADILLY.
—The Messrs. S. and B. Solomons, Opticians and Au-
rists to the Royal Family, are happy to inform the Public
that, after thirty years' practice, they have succeeded in
effecting a most important improvement for Deafness and
Defective Vision. Their invisible Voice Conductor is
constructed upon such a principle, that when fixed in the
ears it is not perceived, and in company most severe cases
of deafness are not in the least perceptible. The Messrs.
Solomons are highly gratified to find that numerous indi-
viduals of the highest respectability arc daily calling to
express their feelings of gratitude for the great benefit
they have derived. Their newly invented Spectacle
Lenses give immediate relief to weak, dim, and imperfect
vision. It is particularly necessary to observe that the
Messrs. S. have no connection with persons of the same
name, nor with any one who have and who are daily en-
deavouring to imitate them • their valuable improvements
in the material are secret to themselves, and are solely
confined to their establishment, 39, Albemarle-street. No
travellers are employed.

The copious and successive showers with which
the country was favoured a week or two since, combined
with a fair proportion of hot and seasonable weather, has
given an appearance and imparted a forwardness to the
crops of hay ar.d grass in this neighbourhood, unsurpassed,
we should think, within recollection. Nothing can ex-
ceed the beauty and fertility of the landscape in every di-
rection. Portions of grass we observe cut in a great
many places; and the wheat is displaying the ear prepara-
tory to the golden ripening which waits to crown the
farmer's toil. It is, however, thought that the drought
experienced in May will prove unfavourable to abundance
as regards the hay crops. A few days more, however, of
such dry and hot weather as now prevails, and hay-making
will be the order of the day in every point of the compass.
