the same movements, as if guided by the power of electricity. This
performance is particularly recommended to the notice of the Ama-
teurs of Equestrianism, who cat judge of its extraordinary difficulty.

\mouth of the Danube affords a melancholy illus-
tration of the contempt in which England and
the English were held at St. Petersburgh. For
1 more than four years we have been calling the
attention of the Russian Government to the &Ai-
-1 gation imposed by former treaties to keep the
Ichannel clear and fit for navigation. The Moslem
' had done so while he had control of the navi-
gation ; hut the Muscovite had totally disregarded
his obligations, and suffered the channel to be
choked up by the accumulation of the deposit.
' He would neither do it himself, nor permit any
other person or power to undertake the duty.
To all the remonstrances of England be has been
deaf, or worse than deaf. We might not engage
in war on that account alone, although it
entails very serious losses on our mercantile
men, diverting the trade from the Danube to
Odessa. But now that matters have become so
far involved that an account must be rendered, it
may be as well that it should comprise every un-
settled point, and that Russia should no longer be
permitted to inflict such serious injury upon the
trade and commerce of England for her own
selfish purposes. The navigation of the Danube

Undeterred by the humiliating failure of the
i Chaplain, and the painful exhibition made by that
Reverend Gentleman—a nobler, a more doughty
champion has rushed into the field. Lord WIL-
LIAM HENRY HUGH CIIOLMONDELEY has flung
down his gage on behalf of the system practised
at Winchester Gaol, or lather on behalf of the
'Magistrates by whom the vexatious and intol-
erable restrictions—the mere publication of which
has so strongly excited the public indignation—
! were sanctioned and approved. Lord CHOLMON-
BELLY, as one of these Magistrates, was himself
on trial. He was more particularly implicated,
inasmuch as it was stated on oath before Mr.
PAYNE, the Coroner, and the respectable Jury at
the Queen's Prison, when inquiring

his treatment,
declaring that " whenever he had settled his
affairs he should bring an action against the

DELEY was then well aware of the course pursued
towards debtor prisoners in the Winchester Bas_
tile. His attention had been expressly directed
to the subject by a person actually suffering under
the grievances of which he was complaining. He
cannot, therefore, set up a plea of ignorance, like
some of the great unpaid of Leicester and Bir-
mingham. Even if so remiss in the execution of
the duties of his situation as to be perfectly un-
acquainted with the cruelties practised under his
authority, it became imperative, on the receipt of
that information, that he should institute a close
and searching inquiry into the details of the
horrible system, and bestow relief, or at least
use his best exertions to procure relief for the
unfortunate sufferer. Not having done so, he
becomes responsible for all the cruelties practised,
and must be considered a particeps criminis with the
governor, chaplain, and other officials of that
