from ordinary occupation, tnd it must not be forgotten that this
will be accomplished without drawing severely upon the purse-
strings. The

, tiguous is

TILGATE COTTAGE VILLA,
Approximating upon the Brighton Road, from which it is alone se-
cluded by the thriving Shrubberies—the Best Rooms all partake of
the lively Scenery of this road. It may be well to observe, that,
in its original construction, a Cottage only was in -contemplation—
the Proprietor, however, desirous of making it suitable to his fa-
mily, added the Drawing Room and Principal Chambers, and it
is now admirably, adapted to mrct all the legitimate views of a re-
spectable Family. It is surrouddcd by Lawn and Pleasure Gar-
dens, laid out very prettily, the little Park Meadow is belted
throughout by a most prolific Plantation of Twenty Years' Growth.
There is, besides, connected with this desirable investment,
THE HYDE AND KNOWLES'S FARMS,
THE OLD HOUSE FARM AND NEW COTTAGE,

about 500 acres lying well together ; besides which there are
• THE MILL AT HAND CROSS, and
_ .

THE PUBLIC-HOUSE AND STABLING,
independently of double and single cottages; and much valuable
property, respectably tenanted.
THE LUXURIANT PLANTATIONS

that adorn the property throughout, give to the whole domain the
appearance of

ONE CONTINUED PARK,

beside affording most capital covers for pheasants, which are very
abundant.

The Estate can be viewed by printed particulars, which will be

The number of petitions that have recently been
presented to Parliament, complaining of enactments in
the Poor Law Act, prove that a portion of the public
at least are awakened to a just sense of the enormity of
some of the detestable provisions of that statute. Let
no one, however, deceive himself by supposing that
the existing Parliament, or the existing Ministry, can
be induced to mitigate the acts of inlnimanity which
the measure directs, or check the cold-blooded cruelty
of those arbitrary decrees which the Commissioners,
who administer it, delight to indulge in. If any-
thing could have moved the Government or the Par-
liament to interfere, it would have been the irre-
ligious and unchristian order of the Commissioners
by : which paupers are excluded from places of
public worship on the Sabbath. We are assured,
upon the best authority, that in the case of the
Eastry Union, • which first made known the Go-
vernment excommunication of the poor, two paupers,
one of whom had been in the habit of attending
his parish church for 70 years, and the other for .50
years, had found, in the hope and expectation that
they should still be allowed to visit their accustomed
place of worship on the Sabbath, some consolation for
imprisonment during the rest of the days of their lives,
which is the harsh penalty the hard-hearted Whigs
and their more hard-hearted instruments, the Commis-
sioners, have imposed upon blameless misfortune and
inevitable old age. Yet this has been denied them !
while Lord John Russell actually defended the
excommunication of unhappy persons MD, like these,
are driven by the Commissioners into workhouses ; and
if no Member of the Church of England, with the
single exception of Mr. Maclean, denounced the dis-
graceful decree, we perhaps have no right to complain
that the Romanists or the Protestant Dissenters in
Parliament should not have taken up the matter. And
yet it was the duty of the latter to notice it, perhaps
in terms of still stronger reprobation than the others
would have been justified in using„ for the Commis-
sioners propose to have a Church of England chap-
lain to perform duty in workhouses once on a Sunday,
after the fort-i prescribed in the Establishment, whirlh
is something, though it does not, as indeed nothing
can, compensate for participation' in public worship ;
whereas, it is clear that neither Romanists ncr Protes-
tant Dissenters can avail themselves of the assistance
of the Church of England chaplain, and they there-
fore must be utterly cut off from the performance of
that solemn duty to which, from the earliest days of
Christianity until now, the Sabbath has been dedi-
WM, But what care the Whigs for that ? What
care the Romanists and Protestant Dissenters even for
the spiritual privations of their poorer brethren, if in
taking the proper mean of supplying these privations
they risk farther discredit to the political faction which
is doing their worldly work for them ? We must have
a different Parliament and a different Government be-
fore this and the hundred other disgraces the Whigs
have brought upon the nation can be removed and
atoned for.— Times. _ _

The Reformed House of Commons, even in this age
of " civil and religious liberty," has negatived a motion
for " an Address praying his Majesty that his subjects
in the civil and military services abroad may be re-
lieved front aeAsting in religious ceremonies to which
their own tenets are opposed." It is worthy of the
Ministers who endeavour to establish a Papal ascen-
dancy in Ireland, that they should coerce the con-
sciences of his Majesty's Protestant subjects, and
compel them, as Captain Atcheson was compelled, to
do honour to a Popish idol, or be deprived of the fair
prospects of an honourable profession, and even of the
means of livelihood. Roman Catholic soldiers are not
compellable to attend Protestant places of worship, or
to join in any of the religious rites and ceremonies -of
Roman
someand
Catholic Saint or. idol goes in procession, and claims
the debasing worship of the ignorant
supersti-
tious multitude ? We hope Captain Atcheson will
never cease to prosecute his claims until he obtains
something like justice in this age of " liberality."—

The state of hopeless despondency into which the
successive defeats of the Parliamentary campaign have
thrown the Tory party, is not likely to be relieved by
the rumour just now cautiously whispered that some-
thing has very recently transpired, which indicates, in
a manner not to be mistaken, the feelings of the most
exalted Personage in the kingdom as to that anti-
national and unpopular faction. We are sensible of
the inconvenience, almost amounting to impropriety,
of dragging forward the Royal name in the discus-
sions to which passing events necessarily give occa-
sion ; but when we recollect that the Tories, with all
their pretensions to exclusive loyalty, make no scruple
of distorting expressions used by their Sovereign to
meanings the very opposite of those which they were
intended to convey, we feel little delicacy in repeating
what we know from undoubeed authority .to have
been within the last twenty-four hours communicated,
from one of the high Conservative oracles at the
same time we desire to be distinctly understood, as in
,no way guaranteeing the authenticity of the Tory
rumours, nor of defending the Tory practice, of re-
peating expressions dropped in the unguarded confi-
dence of familiar conversation. Having premised
these observations, we may now venture to repeat what

Mr. Knight having been born in France, soon discovered
that the melancholy being he had picked up was a country-
man of his own, and had been brought up under the " silent
system," and was very likely to perish under the starving
system. It was a strange mode of recommending a man's
self to the notice of the author of all good, to slight and re-
ject the use of the gifts and faculties which he had beep
pleased-to dispense ; but so it was with the votaries of La
Trappe, ley the presiding authority of which the skeleton-
like stranger was sentenced to do penance by a pilgrimage
through England and Ireland, for some transgression of the
rules of the order. - Witness took the monk home, and
placed before him the best that could he afforded him, but
the wretched man would take. hut little refreshment, and
refused to lie down upon any other bed than the hard floor,
where he consigned himself once more to sleep, but not
until he had fervently prayed for mercy, as was evident from
his heavy sighs, uplifted hands, and moving, but soundless,
lips. Next morning, witness ascertained that his guest had
left a change of clothes at some public-house in the neigh-
bourhood of London-bridge, and had been two days look-
ing for the place without effect.
Alderman COWAN said that the conduct of the person
who had relieved the poor enthusiast was truly noble.
Many, he feared, who were in the habit of reviling the
Jews, " passed by on the other side."
Mr. KNlGHT—Although his wants are but very few, I
am so poor that my children would feel any further en-
croachment upon their daily bread severely, and I caused
the poor man to be brought here to have the assistance of
the police to find his little property that he may continue
his pilgrimage, after which he is to go back to Belgium.
Mr. HoatEit—Did you tell him that you were a Jew ?
Mr. Knight—No ; I was afraid that, deplorable as his
condition was, he would have scorned my aid if I had said
a word about it ; neither do I wish that he should be in-
formed at cal of the fact, lest the knowledge of it might.
wound prejudices which happily no longer existed in this
country.
Mai!ley, the policeman, was then directed by Mr. Alder-
man Cowan to inquire in the public-houses in the neigh-
bourhood of London-bridge whether the Monk had depo-
sited his clothes in any one of them. In the course of the
day the °dicer returned, having succeeded in his search.
'Wrapped up in his threadbare garment were the works of
Origcn, Kempis, and other eminent writers on the Chris-
tian religion, and the poor monk for the first time appeared
to relax, and something like a gleam of satisfaction was ob-
servable for a moment on his countenance when the books
were put into his hands. He then bowed to the Alder-
man, meekly placing-his hands upon his breast, shook his
benevolent host by the hand, and once more set out upon
his pilgrimage.

.LAMBETH-STREET.
Yesterday, Mrs. Ann Manchester, an inmate of the pa-
ish of Ail Saints, Poplar, was brought before Messrs.
Hardwick and Tickelli by Lea, an officer, on a charge of
strangling an aged pauper, named Ann Wood.
A female named Show, an inmate of the poorhouse of
All Saints, Poplar, stated that the deceased and herself had
been patients in the .sick ward of the workhouse for some
time previously to the 20th of last month. On that day
the deceased was supposed to be in a dying state, and
the prisoner, who was nurse to the ward, being sent
for, she, on entering the room, took a handkerchief
for the purpose, as every one who was present thought,
of tying up the jaws of the dying woman, but instead
of that she put the handkerchief round her neck, and tied
it as tight as she could. At this time the deceased was
not dead, as she (witness) distinctly heard a noise in her
throat as if she had been gai2g,ling it, and observed a large
lump collect close to where the handkerchief had been
tied, and she died immediately afterwards. The witness
further stated, that in consequence of the extreme age and
bodily affliction of the deceased she was extremely careless
in her habits, and she in consequence became an object of
great dislike to the. prisoner, who talked harshly of her.
On one occasion she heard her (the prisoner) say in re-
ference to the deceased, " the nasty old ought to be
gone long since, but I suppose the Devil is not prepared
for her yet with his chains." On the day of her death the
deceased repeated the word " money" two or three times,
-upon which witness asked her if she had any ? And she
replied, " yes, the nurse (meaning the prisoner) has got it."
Mr. HARDWICK—Then do you think that the prisoner
throttled the deceased ? Witness—l really do, Sir.
Mr. HARDWICK—You have said that this took place on
the 20th of last month. Why did you not, when you saw
the prisoner throttle the deceased, call out at once for as-
sistance? Witness—l trembled so at the thoughts of it
that I really could net.
Mr. no:ELL—Have you ever quarrelled with the pri-
soner? Witness—,Not at all, Sir ; she has always behaved
kind to me.
Mr. Wardell, the master of the workhouse, said it was
perfectly true that the witness Shaw had mentioned some-
thing about the prisoner having tied a handkerchief about
the throat of the deceased instead of round her jaws, but
he paid no particular attention to it at the time, particularly
as the deceased, who was upwards of seventy-six, had been
in a dying state for some time before, and considering it
quite impossible that the prisoner, who was, generally
speaking, a very well conducted woman, would have
attempted to commit such an act in the presence of three
or four persons, or that the latter would have allowed her
to commit it.
The Magistrates thought that as the case was about to
undergo an inquiry before a Coroner's Jury it was unneces-,
sary for them to proceed farther, And as the prisoner could
be at all times found they discharged her.
