CRICKETING.

Yestesclay the match for 501., between the Walworth Mont-
pelier and Windsor and Eton Junior Cricket Clubs, was played
on the Brocas, Eton. In the first innings the Windsor and
Eton se ►red Q 3, second 37. Montpelier, first innings 57,
second 74, with eight wickets to go down. The usual_ fatality
attended the Windsor and Eton in their second innings ; the
whole of them were put down for a very contemptible numbor.
The match was won by the superior batting of Messrs. Colston
and Trimnell.

At Riom-10-Montagnes, in the Cantal, there is a
man aged 29 of almost Herculean strength. He can raise a
weight of 2,0001 b., and lift up with the third finger of his
right hand 2001 b. He has a brother aged 23, and a sister
25, of nearly equal strength. They are all very mild in cha-
ra:ter, and arc occupied in farming.—French Paper.
The late fine weather has been bzeletieial to the
crops, especially of wheat, as the most sanguine wishes of the
farmers could have imagined, and vegetation has made rapid
progress. Wheat is generally in bloom, under most favoura-
ble circumstances, and at present affords a good !won-it:ic—
y:vying of course with the soil and situation.--Sunderland
Herald.
A splendidly constructed four-oared bottt has been
built at the command of his Majesty, which is intended as a
present to the Prince of Orange. The cutter is thirty-six
fret in length, built of oak, and is fitted up with considerable
neatness, totally avoiding everything that would tend to give
her a gaudy appearance. The cushions arc green, with orange
tufts, trimmed with gold lace, and she has orange yoke lines.
A series of brutal outrages on agricultural property
has been committed at Stavcly, near Chesterfield, within the
last few days. Hayricks have been fired, the throats cut of
several sheep, and a valuable horse stabbed to death.
The Welsh shores are now assuming a very anima-
ted appearance ; every dwelling and cottage contiguous to the
sea being in requisition for the numerous parties in search of
health and pure air.
It ATs.—Tommy Binks, a celebrated rat-catcher,
near Darlington, last week, at two falls caught in his box-
trap, fifteen rats, viz., at the first fall, eight ; and the second,
seven. Eight of those were the old English black rat, and
the remaining seven,
.of what are termed the Norway species.
This men seems to be so expert at his calling, that we think
he would really be an acquisition in two houses we could name,
which are very much infested with these vermin.— York

A NEW CLAIMANT TE. THE FRENCH THRONE.
—A person landed here yesterday (Dover, July 13,) from
Calais, who, if report speak truth, ought to be now sitting on
the throne of France, by the title of Louis XVII. This per-
son, it is said, was born in 1785, and after the decapitation
and murder of his father, mother, and other royal relatives,
being considered idiotic, was not particularly under the sur-
veillance of the revolutionists, but was secretly conveyed from
Paris during the horrors of the Revolution, and has been tra-
velling since, in almost every part of the world, under the
protection of a French Marquis. Why be has lately returned
to Paris may be matter of conjecture; but it seems his bed
there did not exactly consist of roses ; for his presence becom-
ing known to the French authorities, he was, under the edict
of 1830, planed in the hands of the !lens dames, who con-
veyed him to Calais, and put him on board the packet, which
landed him here; and from whence he has departed for
London this morning. lie
gave in his name at the Alien Of-
fice as "Charles Louis, 51 years of age."—Kentigh Observer.
At an early hour on Suu:lay, an accident which ter-
minated the existence of two respectable young men, took
place off Erith. It appears that three young nice, namely
Mr. Green, the son of the proprietor of the Portugal Hotel,
in Carey-street, Mr, 1-hinter, a clerk to a solicitor, and Mr.
Hook, the son of a gentleman at Walworth, started from
London in a wherry, with the intention of rowing to Graves-
end and back. On arriving off Erith, and nearly opposite to
the residence of Mr. Alderman Harmer, a ;widen squall
overturned the boat, and all three were immersed in the water.
Mr. Hook, being an expert swimmer, managed to keep him-
self buoyant until he was picked up by a sailing vessel; but
both his companions were unfortunately drowned, and no trace
of their bodies could be found when he left. It is much
feared, from the boisterous state of the weather, that other
taccidents have occurred.

ARRIVAL OF TILE EARL OF ERROLL AND FA •
DILLY" AT SLAKES CASrLE.---On Tuesday, the sth instant, at a
quarter before two o'clock, the Earl and Countess of Erroll,
accompanied by their family and Thomas Burnett, Esq.,
arrived in two carriages and four at Slanes Castle. The
castle guns immediately announced the joyful tidings to the
anxiously expecting tenants on his Lordship's estates in Cru-
den. In less than an hour a long train of well-dressed people
was seen approaching the castle, to pay their respects to
the noble and much respected family, and to express the
delight which they felt in welcoming them to the mansion of
their ancestors.

221 instant, and according to ancient usuge will claim the
city's jurisdiction at Leigh Stone near this place, erected
A. D. 1285. There are Steam Packets daily from London ;
and from Southend, morning, and afternoon.
It is said that his Excellency Baron Bulow, with
his amiable Lady and family, will fically leave this country in
a few weeks, after a sojourn of more than ten years.
Three specimens of that splendid plant, the Yucca
Gloriosa, are now to be seen in bloom in the garden of His
Grace the Duke of Buckingham, at Avington, Hants.
MAD BULLOCK.—About five o'clock on Monday
.afternoon, a bullock, in an infuriated state, proceeded along
the Minories in Wapping High-street, where, we lament to.
add, it attacked Mr. Pierce, Deputy Dock Master of the
London Docks, who was standing on the pier head of the
Wapping entrance to the London Docks. The injuries
which the unfortunate gentleman sustained produced a con-
cussion of the brain, and he died shortly before nine o'clock on
Monday night. Mr. Pierce, who has left a large family to
bewail his melancholy fate,-has acted as Deputy Dock Master
since the opening of the Docks in 1805—upwards of 30 years.
TIIE WELCH CHURCH.—In John's "Essay on
the Cause of Dissent in Wales," we find it stated that the
alien Clergy in the Diocese of St. Asaph yearly " reap where
they have sown," as follows :—Relatives of Bishop Bagot,
1,1001. ; of Bishop Cleaver, 2,126/. ; of Bishop Horsley,
2,6901. ; of the leviathan Luxmore (principally given to his
sons), 14,036/. ; Total, 19,9521. !! The recipients of these
enormous incomes know not the Welch language, reside in
England, and the pastoral charge is administered by ill-paid
curates, of whose qualifications they are the sole judges : we
believe their only care is to get them as cheap as they can.
The other Welch dioceses present an equally black picture.—
Carnarvon Herald.
DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.—On Sunday afternoon a
most destructive fire broke out, about half-past three o'clock,
on a farm belonging to a gentleman named Snelling, in the
village of Sutton, near Carshalton, Surrey, which destroyed
property to a large amount. It was occasioned by the wad-
ding of a gun, fired at some small birds falling on the
thatch of one of Mr. Snelling's barns, by some young men
from London, who, on seeing the thatch ignite, instantly took
to their heels and escaped. Immediately on the intelligence
of the fire reaching Carshalton, the parish engine was dis-
patched to the spot, but on its arrival two large barns were one
mass of fire; and had not the wind providentially shifted to
the north-west, upwards of thirty stacks of new hay, the whole
of the outbuildings, and Mr. Snelling's private residence and
stables must have fallen a prey to the devouring element.
The farm-yard closely adjoining the Church, great alarm
was experienced by the congregation from the . quantity of
smoke with which the sacred edifice was filled ; and on its
being ascertained where the conflagration actually was, the
minister was deserted, the whole assembly spontaneously
hastening to the spot, to render assistance. The whole of the
barns, with their contents, were destroyed ; and we are sorry
to say that Mr. Snelling was uninsured, having only recently
taken the premises.

The Indicateur of Bordeaux of Friday announces,
that on the preceding day Cardinal Cheverus, the Archbishop
of that see, was struck with a violent fit of apoplexy, which
entirely paralyzed the right side, and deprived him of the use
of his speech. He had been attended by the whole of the
faculty of the city, who held a consultation on his case. He
had been copiously bled, and at midnight on Thursday was in
a slight degree better. During the day his Palace was sur-
rounded by great crowds, eager to gain intelligence of his con-
dition, and the utmost anxiety on the occasion was shown by
11 classes of the people. The foundation of the attack is
attributed to his late visitation tour, and was no doubt hastened
by his zealous but imprudent resolution of celebrating in per-
son the Te Deum in thanksgiving for the late escape of the
King from assassination.—Galignani's Messenger.

CONVER SION of the SPANISH FOREIGN
PASSIVE DEBT.
The Commissioners appointed by the Spanish Government for
the Conversion of the Foreign Debt of Spain,_ having received
Orders from Madrid for carrying into effect the Decree of the 28th
of February last, relative to the Foreign Passive Debt, beg to in-
form the Holders of this Stock, that they have given instructions
to Messrs. Ardoin and Co. in Paris, and Messrs. J. and S. Ricardo
and Co. in London, to take measures for putting into immediate
execution the provisions of the above-mentioned decree.

As the Decree protides for the conversion of one-sixth of the
Foreign Passive Debt annually, should the applications exceed. this
amount, the lists will be transmitted to Madrid, and the Numbers
entitled to the privilege will be determined by lot.
The Bonds will be converted into Active Stock on the same terms
as those granted to the holders of the Interior Passive Debt. For
every One Hundred Pounds Stock, Twenty-five Pounds money in
Bonds at the price of Fifty will be given, bearing interest from the
Ist October next, payable at Madrid only. Thus the holder of
Passive Stock who may obtain the benefit of the Conversion will
receive in exchange half the amount of his Bonds in Active Stock.
ITpon the arrival of the result of the drawing, it will be immedi-
ately announced to the Public, and the exchange will take place so
soon as the new Bonds shall be transmitted from Madrid.

All parties desirous of converting their Bonds must send to

cate (according to a printed torm which may be had at their office)
on or before the 15th Algust next, after which period no further
applications will be received.

sion, five of whom were Tory Cabinet Ministers, five'
Tory Bishops, and the remaining three Tory private
0-entlemen, be otherwise than detrimental to the popu-
lar interests ? Impossible. As well may men expect
to gather grapes from thictles, as wholesome fruit from
a stunted, sapless shrub like this I
Again, then, we entreat—we .conjure—Ministers to
pause, and look about them. Their position is really
critical. They are alienating the moderate Reformers
—they are disgusting the Radicals—and they are not
conciliating, whatever they may think to the contrary,
the Conservatives. True, these last are just now pas-
sive. But why ? Because they see that Ministers
are playing their own game, and charitably taking the
odium of a partial Church Reform on their own shoul-
ders. This is not the spirit in which legislation
should be conducted now-a-days. Governments, if
they desire to maintain their popularity, should look
dangerboldly in the face, not shrink from the first appear-
ance of it. They should not coquette withor strive
to conciliate—an impracticable opposition; but dis-
criminate between their friends and foes ; and look to
the people, and the people only, for support. Above
all, they should not sacrifice a great principle on the
altar of Episcopacy. Old HIEROCLES tells us that
once when a ship was sinking, and the rest of the crew
weli looking about for masts and planks whereby they
might keep themselves afloat, a Scholastikos, or foolish
fellow, laid fast hold of the anchor, and of course went
with it to the bottom. Now, in the case of the Esta-
blished Church Bill, theSabinet is this foolish fellow,
and the Bishops are the anchor which it lays hold of to
save itself from drowning ? Are we solitary in this
opinion ? No, the very best and sincerest friends of
Ministers, Messrs. HUME and BULLER, and DUN-
COMBE--aye, even Lord EBRINGTON himself—the
Whig of Whigs—the very incarnation of Whiggery—
join with us in reprobating the nature and tendency
of the Church Reform Bill. Why then does Lord JOHN
RUSSELL adhere to it ? Because, forsooth, the Bishops
would not allow a better one to pass. " Suppose he
had said"—we quote his Lordship's own words—" that
the income of the Archbishop of CANTERBURY
should be reduced to 8,0001., and the Bishop
of LONDON to 4,5001., it should be recollected that
the Bishops were in the House of Lords,
and that they would not be likely to assent to
such a reduction." What, and has it come to
this ? Is a Reform Cabinet to be frightened " from its
propriety," because the Episcopal Bench may happen
to dislike it? Are Church abuses to be perpetuated
because the Bishops cry " content" to things as
they are ? We are perfectly astonished at this
confession of trembling weakness on the part of
his Lordship. No, wonder he is panic-stricken at
the idea of a collision with the Lords, when even
the Episcopal Bench has power to' terrify him
into subserviency. Such is not the spirit in which
great statesmen act on occasions of emergency. They
do not take fright at the threats of this or that fac-
tion ; but pursue their own course of policy, calm and
resolute, trusting for a successful issue to their own
integrity of purpose.

In the case before us, Ministers have every thing to
hope, and nothing to dread, from giving the people an
efficient measure of Church Reform. They have only
to will to succeed ; only to command, to be obeyed.
The Court may be against them—the Lords may be
against them—the Bishops may be against them—
the whole Conservative.awkward squad may be against
them—but the people are for them ; the intelligent
Reformers of all grades are ready to rally round them
to a man ; and these constitute a Phalanx capable of
;iipporting them under far greater difficulties than they
arc ever likely to meet with in carrying on the Go-
vernment.

Take ye no heed for the things of the body,
saying what shall we eat, and what shall we drink,
and wherewithal shall we be clothed ?" is the precept
which the Divine Founder of our holy religion ad-
dressed to his apostles as the secular rule of their
Gospel mission. Upon this precept that most meek
and lowly of apostolical prelates, his Grace of CAN-
TERBURY, delivered 'an ecclesiastical commentary in
the House of Lords last night. This edifying in-
stance of clerical regard for the Gospel rule of life,
was occasioned by the bringing up of the Tithes
Commutation Bill, when the Most Reverend Father
in God meekly Suggested the adoption of a clause,
apportioning the tenth of all waste lands hereafter to
he brought into cultivation to the exclusive benefit of
that most tender and self-denying of nursing-mothers,
the Church ! So modest a proposal almost startled
their Lordships as much as SWIFT'S modest proposal
for feeding the Irish poor did the old women of
Dublin. It was actually a . proposal to gobble
up. some dozen or two of their Lordships,
whose entire rental is drawn from what the
Venerable Prelate would have no difficulty in
proving to be waste lands. Even Lord ELLEN_
BOROUGH felt bound to protest against so sweeping a
mode of ecclesiastical purveyance. He reminded the
Right Rev. Bench that the Bill was framed in the
true Gospel spirit, as there was nothing prospective in
its provisions. It was, he observed, a retrospective
measure ; but if the proposed clause were adopted the ,
question of Tithe Commutation might be opened an
hundred years hence, which of course would lead to
endless litigation. Lord ASHBURTON hinted that
the Church had every right to be satisfied. He
doubtednot the purity of the Most Rev. Prelate's zeal ;
but he took care to intimate pretty broadly that the
adoption of the clause might be productive of dis-
agreeable .consequences.' The Duke of RICHMOND
was evidently aware that the eceleSiastical purveyors
of Mother Church had framed the amendment in the
most rapacious spirit. He called upon the Episcopal •
Bench to define what was meant by waste lands ; and,
this challenge decided the House. The amendment
was at once negatived.

The rapacity of the Church is admirably exemplified
in the opposition thus offered to the designs of the Lord
Primate of all England by the champions of thei
Establishment in the House of Lords. Ecclesiostica
corruption must indeed assume a threatening attitude'
to call forth a reproof from such submissive statesmen
as Lord ELLENBOROUGH. One might imagine that
the provision made for the Episcopal Bench by the
Established Church Bill, would at least shame the
Bishops into silence on the question of Tithe Commuta-
tion. Who—after examining carefully the following
proposed list of incomes apportioned to the several
Episcopal Sees in England and Wales ; as carefully
bearing in mind that such incomes are apportioned for
the maintenance of the meek and lowly ministers of
the Gospel—for the maintenance of the successors of
Him whose precept was, " Take no care for the wants
of the morrow"—and who had not on earth a place
whereon to rest his head : who, we repeat, after such
examination and reflection, will be found to assert that
Parliament is not sufficiently bountiful in providing
for the wants of the Church ?

lotted by Parliament to men

whose appetite for wealth and power is clearly proved ,
to be insatiable. Had the Archbishop of CANTER-)
BURY but a spark of shame left, the adoption of the
Established Church Bill by the House of Commons
would have prevented him from ever again opening his
mouth 'in Parliament on the subject of tithes. He
would have left to the Lay Members of the Church
the duty of providing for the future wants of the clergy.
But this would have been a departure from the old
episcopal path, in which his Grace has always conducted
his footsteps. It would have opened to the landed interest
the prospect of improving the soil, without subjecting
such improvements to the plundering visitations of a
litigious tithe proctor. Not satisfied with the fifteen
thousand a year allotted him by Parliament, the pious
Archbishop looks forward to the chance of doubling
his income, in the event of the waste lands being
brought into cultivation. The system of tithe plunder
is to stop now, because Parliament offers an equiva-
lent to the full amount wrung from the people ; but the
worthy Prelate suggests the expediency of leaving the door
to future litigation conveniently open—of 'legally
auarding against any improvement in the condition of
the agriculturists from the adoption of the Church
Bill—and, as a necessary consequence, of suffering
the causes of past bitterness, bickerings, litigations,
and hatreds between the Protestant pastors and their
flocks, to remain in full operation I We trust that
this ghostly recommendation, on the part of the vene-
rable Archbishop, was suggested by a fear that Par-
liament might yet discover that it is dealing over-libe-
rally with the Episcopal dignitaries ; nor do
we hesitate to declare that the realization of such a
fear would afford us a real pleasure. We think the
salaries granted to Bishops un:er the Church Bill
enormous ; proportioned rather for the maintenance of
a princely state than for the comfortable support of a
minister of the Gospel. If Parliament would correct
the bearing, and improve the piety of Churchmen, it
must take away from them all temptations to a life of
sloth and dissipation. . No reflecting person can be
surprised at the Parliamentary or other freaks of a priest
who is paid 15,000/. a•year for preaching the Gospel.

The Paris Papers of Monday contain no news of
any interest. The accounts- received from Bayonne
confirm the news of the retreat of the Christinos before
Fontarabia on the 12th, accompanied, however, by a
report that General EVANS was severely wounded on
the 11th. We sincerely trust that there is no ground
whatever for this report ; although we cannot but ac-
knowledge that it only satisfactorily accounts for the re-
treat of the Legion before Fontarabia.

DOll CARLOS has offered the Commandership-in-
Chief of his army to Marshal BOURMONT, who is
stated in the Journals before us to have accepted the
offer of the Pretender. A negociation to this effect
has been carried on between the PRINCE and the
MARSHALL for the last few months.

The Sentinelle des Pyrenees states that the Carlist
chieftains SANZ and GOMEZ, had effected a junction,
and that their united forces exceeded• eight thousand
men. ESPARTERO, being unable to cope with both,
was on his way back to Vittoria. Of the movements
of CORDOVA we find no intelligence in the journals.
PARIS, JULY 17.—The Rondinetta merchantman, which left
Tunis on the Ist of July, has just touched at Genoa; it does
not bring news of any combat. It was believed at the Go-
letta that that the Turkish squadron had anchored in the bad
road of Tripoli, but would not remain there ; the envoys of
the Porte said they were certain of it. The people cf Tunis
seemed to be in general inclined to resist the changes with
which Tahir Paella threatened them. They have assembled
in the forts and batteries what gunners they have, and what-
ever may be of service to them, though these gunners are con-
sidered deficient in skill. -

The Genoese vessel, as it was leaving the Gulf, met'several
small ships of war without any colours hoisted, and on the
coast of Sicily, towards the south-west, a frigate and a cor-
vette, which it supposes to be English, steering with some dif-
fit•ulty- S. S. E. They did not hail, because they were at too
great a distance.—lllessager. July 18.

We copied yesterday from a French paper the an-
nouncement, that a half-threatening, half-cajoling
letter had been addressed to the Cabinets of London,
Paris, and St. Petersburg by the King of BAVARIA,
the burden of which was, that without money and a
wife his son would leave the Greeks to manage their
own affairs. We had thought that OTHO I. being
recognized a member of the European family of
Sovereigns was not so directly amenable to the parental
authority of the Bavarian Monarch ; but it now seems
that we were mistaken. But this is beside the ques-
tion. The King of BAVARIA may permit his son to
return to Greece, or he may keep him at home, just as
he pleases ; but if Parliament will follow our counsel, it
will waste no more money in setting up a regal foot-
stool for Russia.

W. T. Copeland, Esq., the Lord Mayor of London,
has been placed upon the list of magistrates for Staffordshire,
by Earl Talbot, the Lord Lieutenant.

The number of persons employed in making rail-
roads, the many men engaged in harvest work, and the demand
for labour everywhere, occasions a great scarcity of small
silver coin, but as the Mint is busily and actively engaged in
producing a supply, the inconvenience will speedily be re-
moved. The country never was in a more healthy state than
it is at present, and indeed ever since the Tories have been ex-
cluded from power, whose prodigality exceeded all bounds,
during the long period when they were entrusted with the ma-
nagement, or rather mismanagement, of the affairs of the
nation.

The giving translators copyright in foreign dra-
matic plays, or farces, which they adapt to the English stage,
so far as deriving profit from the same, if performed at any
other theatre than that where they are brought out, is by no
means advisable, for it discourages dramatic authors from at-
tempting to write original dramas, if the same benefit is de-
rived from a translation that is from an original work.
It is intended to finish the east wing of the National
Gallery, Trafalgar-square, with all convenient dispatch, so as
to be ready for the exhibition of the pictures of the Royal Aca-
demicians, and others, next year, as the exhibition just closed
will be the last at Somerset-house. There is a semicircular
building annexed to the north side of the west wing intended
for works of sculpture.
It has been determined to allow four of the supe-
rior officers of the Royal Artillery, and the same number of
superior officers of the Royal Engineers, to retire on the full
pay of the ranks they hold. 1

ROLLS' 'COURT.-(THIS DAY.)

ATTORNEI.GENERAI. V. TUE CORPORATION OF CAMBRIDGE.

This case came on upon further directions and costs. It
was an information filed against tho Mayor, Bailiff, and Bur-
gesses of Cambridge, praying that an account might be taken
of several sums received by the defendants, to which they were
entitled by virtue of a gift of Sir Thomas White, late Lord
Mayor of London ; who, in the year 1566, paid 2,0001. to the
Corporation of Bristol, upon trust, to purchase lands of the,,
yearly value of 1201., the interest of which sum was paid over
to certain Corporations, one of which was the Corporation of
Cambridge, upon the trusts he had declared. The informa-
tion stated that the Corporation of Cambridge, under this
gift, became entitled, once in every ten years, to re-
ceive the sum of one hundred pounds upon' trust ; that they
should, on the Feast of St. Michael the Archangel, after the
receipt thereof, pay to four young men of the town of Cam-
bridge, being of honest name and fame, freemen of the city,
and clothiers to be preferred to all others, the sum of 251.
each, they finding surety for the money, which was to be re-
turned in ten years to the Corporation, who were again to
lend it every ten years. For several years the sum of 100/.
had been received by the defendants from the Corporation of
Bristol, which has from time to time been lent out by the de-
fendants ; but, instead of being lent out again after having
been called in, the money had been misapplied by the Corpo-
ration, and appropriated by them to their own use. On the
19th of April, 1834, the cause came on for hearing, when
a decree was made, referring it to the Master to enquire
what sums of money had been received by the defendants from
time to time in respect of the gift of Sir Thomas White, had
those sums had been disposed of, and whether any and what
sums were now subsisting as security. The Master had made
his report in July 1835, by which he found the defendants had
received 5,2401., and had paid 4,4501., leaving a balance of
790/., which had been unappropriated by them, and that an-
other sum of 1001. would be due in August 1835.
Mr. PEAIRERTON and Mr. PACKER now appeared for the
relators, and asked that the defendants might be ordered to
pay the sum of 790/. into Court, with interest, and also pay
the costs of the suit.

Mr. KINDERSLEY, and Mr. GIRDLESTONE, jun., for the
Corporation of Cambridge, contended that the Corporation
had never refused a loan where it had been applied for; that
no breach of trust had been proved against them ; that
there was nothing to show that the snm bad been im-
properly retained in their possession ; that they had no
funds of their own out of which to pay the interest and
costs ; and that if the Court should make the order prayed
for it would only have the effect of causing a rate to be levied
by the Corporation, under the new Corporation Act, upon the
inhabitants. Under these circumstances he trusted the Court
would refuse the order sought for.
Mr. PEMBERTON having replied,
Lord LANGDALE, in giving judgment, said he was satisfied the
town of Cambridge furnished a sufficient number of persons
who would be ready to borrow the sums entrusted to the
Corporation, provided they were aware there were such sums
to be lent. He conceived it.was the duty, of trustees of cha-
rities to afford information to persons, that they might receive
the benefit of such charities upon application. Upon the
whole, his Lordship considered he was bound to order them
to pay the costs and interest from 1828.

Our arrivals this morning are the French and Hamburg

New York, by the United States, at Liverpool.
We have received Montreal papers to the 24th June. They
state that the last Toronto Courier conveys the intelligence
that Mr. W. L. Mackenzie had been no less than four times
defeated at public meetings, in the Riding County of York,
which lie represented in the late Assembly. These papers
have likewise the following commercial remarks :—" On
Monday a rise took place in the rate of exchange in England
--ales have been made of private bills for 9 per cent. prem.
cash."

" The Steamboats continue to arrive every day loaded witl
