ly necessary to investigate ti trattsactions of that colony. As
to Ceylon an equal necesicy" did, not exist. Dispatches had
been recently received fiorrt•the Governor, giving a most satis-
factory view of its impiVement, and of its resources being ade-
quate to defray the e,xpence of its civil establishments. The
'Eon. Secretary concluded with moving an Address .to the
Throne to the above effect.

Mr. WILBERFORCE applauded the object of these Com-
missions, and recommended that the Commissioners should be
instructed to extend their inquiries into the state and disposition
of the Negroes captured under the Abolition Laws.
Lord NUGENT gave notice, that early next Session he
would move for leave to bring in a Bill for the consideration of
the laws of the Islands, and the prevention of the Planters from
holding judicial offices.
Mr. 11 UMI apeoyed of the motion, as tending to economy
in the adinitii4ntion of the affairs of the Colonies, which had
been heretofbre profuke and lavish. He was also anxious to
have the Commission extended to Trinidad, knowing that such
a Commission was carnestly,desired by the inhabitants of that
Island; and'he concluded by moving an Amendment to the
Address-to That effect. •

mi:m:kititvAl"r entirely concurred in the.opinion of the
-Honourable Member for/Aberdeen, and asserted that his own
local knowledge confirmed the necessity of the addition to the
Address proposed by that, Honourable Gentleman.
Mr. GM:LAW RN defended the conduct of Government in
continuing the system of Spanish Laws in Trinidad, and also
defended the administration of Sir Ralph Woodford.
Mr. T. WILSON replied to the observations of Mr. Goul-
burn.

After a few words from Mr. BUTTEILWOUTII and Mr. NV.
Smirrn,

Mr. WILMOT requested Mr. Hume to withdraw his
Amendment.

Mr. HUMS said, he felt it necessary to press his Amend-
ment, unless Gentlemen would agree to adjourn the discussion
to this day.
The discussion was then adjourned to this day.
The other ()niers of the Day were disposed of, and the
House Adjourned at a quarter past Two o'CLocK.

In consequence, we believe, of the disturbances among the
colliers, three companies of the 15th Foot marched, from the
Citadel Bristol on Monday last(6th inst.), and the remainder
will follow on the arrival of the 58th Regiment, who are or-
dered here from Portsmouih,—( Ply

Monday last (6th inst.) the 15th Hussars, stationed in York
Barracks, received their route for Hounslow. They arrived
here on Wgdnesday (Bth inst.) and yesterday (Thursday, gth

duty. -
The Durham Yeomanry Cavalry completed their' term Of
eight days duty on Wednesday last, when the several members
of the corps returned to their respective homes. On Tuesday
the corps was inspected by Lieutenant-Colonel Kearney, com-
manding the 2d Dragoon-Guards, (stationed at Newcastle) who
expressed his entire satisfaction with their discipline and truly
military appearance. On Monday last, the Tyne Yeomanry
Hussars, under the command of Str T. Burdon, marched into
Sunderland for eight days duty. This is the third year they
have been on duty in Sunderland, and a considerable improve-
ment has been visible each year, both in the quality of their
horses and the general soldier-like appearance of the regiment.
On Monday last, two companies of the 66th regiment, recently
returned from St. Helena, but latterly from Hull, marched into
this eity,cand on the following morning proceeded for New-.

companies arrived, and on the following morning marched for
Sunderland, which is the head-quarters of the regiment. It
was the grenadier company that carried the last remains of',
Buonaparte to the grave. Yesterday, the detachment of the,
Royal Fusileers, under the command of Captain Berkeley, late-
ly stationed at Sunderland, marched for Chatham, to the regret
of all classes of the inhabitants of that town. Two companies
of the 7th or Royal Fusileers, one from Sunderland, the other
from Tynemouth, arrived in this city yesterday, on their route
for Chatham, in which direction the other part of the regiment
had preceded them last week.—( Durham AdDer tiser,.May IO.)4

[TIIE TIMES.]

The distress of Ireland at the present moment
affords a strong proof of the comparative energy
and capacity of the English people and the Eng-
lish Government. Famine does not drop down
upon a nation like a thunderbolt, or burst forth
from beneath our feet like an earthquake. Its
approaches are fearful indeed, but they are gra-
dual. In cases, also, where famine is general, it
is hardly to be provided against. Suppose, for
example, there were a famine throughout the
whole earth : such a visitation, as we could
not import grain from any of the neighbour-
•ing planets, would be without remedy—we
must implore mercy of the Being who, for wise
purposes, inflicted such a calamity, and bear it
with patience and humility. But in the present
instance, here is a famine-0 God t- that we
could make people feel what is really meant by
that word famine, when it is descriptive of a state
of things that actually exists, of what boundless
misery it is the short definition—in the present
instance, then, this gaunt destroyer of human life
has been making his approaches for a long time,
but in the usual way, by slow and perceptible
degrees. He might have been met at almost
every stage of his progress ; but there -was no
watch kept—the sheep were without provident
shepherds; and was it necessary to call in supplies
from far ? No: we believe that it is almost un-
paralleled in any history, that, in an empire so
small as that of England in its geographical ex-
tent, the growers of corn should be starving from
abundance in one nook, and the consumers of
corn perishing from want of food in another. To
use the language of poetry, and we had hoped of
fiction, it may now indeed be said of the country,
that it

" Blooms at once a garden and a grave."
But turn we from the Government Co the
people, and how different i the prospect !
Famine has actually broken out : want is
inflicting its ravages in the sister kingdom.

No sooner is this known to the people of
England, than, slighting all distinctions of sect
and party, unobservant of the Government, as if
no Government existed (and which, in truth, has
not existed for the prevention of this evil, though
it has existed for the infliction of many others)—
,
the people of England, we say, are no sooner ac-
quainted with the sufferings of their Irish bre-
thren, than they fly together, suspend all private
affairs, forget the claims of children and kindred
at homer and—the miseries that have been al-
ready suffered they cannot recall, but at their
own personal expence they take care that " the
plague shall be stayed." Such is the difference
in moral character and physical activity between
the British Government and the British people.

Nearly a hundred persons embarked from Southampton last
week,for France.
Upwards of fifty houses have been finished building at South.
ampton since Christmas ; nearly the whole are inhabited.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, MAY 11.
THE ICING V. THE CORPORATION OF BRISTOL.
In this case a rule had been obtained, calling on the Corpora-
tion of Bristol to show cause why a peremptory mandamus should
not issue to compel them to reinstate Mr. Griffiths in the office
of Steward of the Sheriff's Court of that city. In answer to the
complaint the Corporation made a return setting forth that Mr.'
Griffiths, by accepting the office of a stipendiary Police Magis-
trate of the Shadwell office, London, had disabled himself from
performing the duties of the situation from which he had been
removed. They stated that he had accepted the office in Lon-
don in 1818, and that of thirty-seven courts holden between June
and September in the following year, he had been present only
at five.
Mr. Griffiths, in person, took several objections to the form
of the return ; and, on the merits, asserted that, as his days of
'leisure as a Magistrate were Saturday and Monday, he had an
opportunity of paying a weekly visit to Bristol, to perform his
duties as steward.
Mr. LUDLOW for the Corporation, contended that the ob-
jections were without foundation ; but that, even if the return
were defective, the Court would not grant a peremptory manda-
mus in a case where they must perceive that the applicant could
not fulfil the duties of the office to which he called on the Court
to restore him.
The COURTS although they thought it would be difficult to
answer some of the objections to the return, were unanimously
of opinion that the peremptory mandamus ought not to be
granted. It appeared clearly to them that the two offices were
incompatible, and they were not bound to restore a person to an
office from which he might next week be again properly eject-
ed. If the facts stated in the return were untrue, Mr. Grif-
fiths had his remedy by action.—Rule discharged.

at anchor, off the island of Zauziboo,. on the 4th August last,
the Frenclbrig-Indiistry, Capt. Mongin, with 130 slaves, viz.
127 men and three women, completing her cargo, and arrind
at the Isle of France' on the 11th of September. This vessel'
had run eight years in the Slave Trade. The Menai has also
determined the existence of the Islands of Glorioso (two in
number), and Capt. Moresby has sent an account of their exact
position to the Admiralty—he having landed on them. Their
existence is doubted by Horsburgh, author of the Bast 'lndia

country had not lost; the difficulties .arising' out of changed
situation would set themselVes to rights. Inconvenience would
occur in the interim---inconvenience,which unfortunately could
not be avoided; but that would, eventually, be the case. The
Noble Lord concluded, by appologizing for not hating been
prepared more fully to meet the 'arguments of the Noble Earl
(Carnarvon) he had not expected that Noble Earl to'go so
deeply.into the subject. .
Lord CALTHORPE thought that nothing could preserve
the agricultural interest but the interference of Parliament with
the machinery of Mr. Peel's Bill.
The Earl of CARNARVON, in' reply, urged such an ex-
tension of paper as had been given in the years 1818 and 1817.
The Bill was then read a third time, and passed ; and the
House adjourned at HALF-PAST EIGHT O'CLOCK.

MELANCHOLY OCCURRENCE.

WEYMOUTH, JULY most painful duty
devolves upon us to announce the melancholy death of W3I.
FLOYER, Esq. about 19 years of age, eldest son of the late
Rev. Mr. FLOYEIt, the worthy Rector of Stinsford, near Dor-
chester, a Midshipman belonging to his Majesty's ship Revo-
lntionaire, who- was drowned yesterday to the westward of
Portland.—The Revolutionaire lately returned to Plymouth
from the Mediterranean station to be paid off; this young Gen-
tleman was coming to this port in an open pleasure boat with
one seaman, in order to proceed to his mother and family, and
being shortly to come into the possession of an estate of con-
siderable value, to have resided on it. His great partiality
for the watery element induced him to prefer the voyage by
sea to a journey by land. The wind blowing fresh, and a
strong tide, the boat drifted into the dangerous Race of Port-
land, shipped a sea, and in consequence sunk. The seaman
and himself took to the oars and spars, and were observed by
the Portlanders. A considerable time elapsed before a boat
could be launched to go to their assistance. They used every
possible exertion to rescue them from their dreadful peril, and
succeeded in preserving the seaman's life, but, distressing to re.
late, this brave and promising youth sunk to rise no more, after
floating on the water more than two hours.—We understand
that this Gentleman had also formerly served in his Ma-
jesty's ship Myrmidon, under the command of Captain
GaluniEn, now inspecting Commander of the Preventive
service on this station. He was an Officer of highly ac-
complished and gentlemanly manners, beloved by his brother
Officers, and highly popular among the common seamen ;
and had Providence been pleased to prolong his life, there
was every prospect that he would have proved a bright
ornament to the naval service of his King and country.—
Thus has been snatched away in the bloom of youth, and in
the fairest of worldly prospects, a young man who was the hope
of a most respectable family, and has left an aged and affec-
tionate mother in the most severe and inconsolable grief for 'his
premature and unfortunate death.—We do earnestly hope that
this most lamented event will operate as a caution to many
Gentlemen who but too frequently venture to come in open
boats up the Channel from Plymouth and other ports along
the coast to this place.

severe contest will be the result, if the men be in good condi-
tion ; betting is 5t04 on Cabbage. It will be recollected that
the Bristol hero was beat by Martin in April 1020, being his
first and only exhibition in the London ring. Both are in ac-

BURNING OF A HINDOO WIDOW.

[Flom the Madras Courier of Feb. 2.1
Early in January a warrior died, and was burnt in a well,
about six feet deep. The same day his wife, prior to his
death, told him she would go with him, and the same night
dreamt her husband came 'to her, when asleep, and hit her
upon the shoulder, saying, " Are you asleep—are you not
coming ?" Upon this she immediately rose, and gave her child
to the family, saying—take it, I shall have nothing more to
do with it, and desired things miahi be prepared, as she was de-
termined to burn herself at 4 o'clock in the afterno n. All the
offers of money, and persuasio is of her broth( r and , were
of no avail ; the Rajah and Tassalder did all in their
.power
to dissuade her from committing the rash act, but in vain. A
little after four o'clock she left her dwelling, in company with
her family, and proceeded to a tank, near the village where
her husband had bce burnt, and after performing the usual
ceremonies, walked three times round the well, her brother
and other relations holding her hand. _She then quitted their
hold, plunged into the well, end sat down, when, dreadful to
relate, wood, oil, and ghee, were thrown upon her by a few
people. She was quite composed, and requested the people
not to throw any more upon her, as she. was with her husband,
and in the course of a few minutes she was consumed to ashes,
without a groan or shriek. Not a torn torn was beat, nor did
the natives shout, as generally is the. case ; all seemed horror-
struck at what they had witnessed. On the forenoon of they
day she was to burn herself, she bathed, put on clean linen,
eat beetle, and held in her hand a small looking-glass, upon
which she continually kept looking.

GAME,

The number of grouse which are daily found dead on the
nioors, having given rise to various erroneous conjectures as to
the cause of so unusual a mortality, we are now, we believe, on
the information of a correspondent, enabled to state the real
complaint so prevalent among them. A tine old cock bird was
taken on the Bth inst. on the moorland of E. TuitToN, Esq.
near Thirsk, and was opened by J. DENT, Esq. surgeon of
that town. It was found to contain a large quantity of tape
worm, which, in all probability has occasioned the death of so
many birds, and in a great measure disappointed the hopes of
all true sportsmen. In the same neighbourhood a person
lately picked up no less than sixty grouse, all in a dying state,
and which soon after expired, without any apparent disorder.
But if they were afflicted with the tape-worm, their decease is
accounted for ; but it is still unexplained why they are more
troubled with this complaint in the present year than in any
other.—(Durham Chronicle.)
The following singular instance of the destruction of part-
ridges by ticks or sheep-lice, has been communicated to us as
having occurred last week in a field of carraway, near the Half-
way House, at Minster, in Sheppy. Some pointers in training
made a point for some time before any game could be discovered:
at length on a search, three young partridges and the old hers
were found dead, sitting on their breasts as if asleep. On taking
them up and examining them, no cause of their death could be
perceived; they were in good order as to flesh, and the hen had
lost all her feathers from her breast. They were taken home in
order to examine them more closely, and the hen being picked,
the inside of her wings, the rump, tail, and the poll of the head,
were completely covered with masses of ticks and scarifications,
and, if possible, the young ones were more infected, and from
this cause there is no doubt was their death produced. The
covey had been found several times before : they were a month
old, and could fly well. There were no wounds or bruises about
them, and their insides were perfectly correct. The Marsh-
bred birds in Sheppy are very subject to this infection.—( lard-
ish Gazette.)

FOR PRESERVING THE TEETH AND GUMS.

HE VEGtTABLE TOOTH-POWDER
has so lung Seen in general use, that it is unnecessary
to offer any further recommendation of it. Composed of Ve-
getables, without the admixture of any Mideral or pernicious
ingredient whatever, it is free from the usual objection against
the use of other Dentrifices. Its detersive power is just suf-
ficient to annihilate those destructive particles which adhere
to the Gums and the Interstices of the Teeth ;. healing inju
ries in the former, and promoting a new Enamel (where it
has been. i:ljured or corroded) on the letter. It likewise im-
parts a firmness and healthy redness to the Gums; and, if

FOR THE SUN.

NEW IMPROVEMENTS.

Mr. EDITOR—You have told us in Tuesday's
paper of a present of rich vestments from the
King of SARDINIA to a Roman Catholic chapel
in town. it is very kind of that Monarch to re
member England, now that the Pretender is dead.
Therefore as there is now a Bill before Parlia-
ment to bring six Roman Catholic Lords into
their " hereditary seata" in the House of Peers,
may we not expect, at some future period, that
some folks may think of bringing in a Bill to
give his Sardinian Majesty his " hereditary Rat"
there also.

Again, Sir, don't you remember when Parlia-
ment were engaged in voting 50,0001. for the
Elgin marbles, that dlearned and liberal Banker
in Pall Mall complained of our stealing these
things from Greece, and from those libe-
ral patrons of art—the Turks ? and that he
recommended rather to vote a sum of money to
send them all back again'? Well, Sir, now is
the time for that gentleman to step forivard. The
Greeks are besieging the Acropolis at Athens ;
and, therefore, if all these things were now sent
back to the Parthenon, what with the Greek
mortar firers without, and the Turkish mortar
pounders within, might we not expect an end to
all antiquarian controversy ? Your7s,
ROB. SHORT.

STEAM-VESSELS.

Two steam-vessels, of 100 horse power each, are building in
one of Majesty's Eastern Dock-yards, to be stationed at Ply-
mouth and Portsmouth, for the purpose of towing vessels out of
the harbour when the wind is contrary..—( Portsmouth Paper.)
On Sunday last arrived here the St!ain Yacht Lord Melville,
Capt. Black, on her way to London, from Chester, where she
was built. The passage from Holyhead to this place was made
in 54 ladurs. • She experienced a very heavy sea off the Land's
End, and a rough passage nearly the whole at the way. Although
this was the first trial of her machinery (which is very hand-
some) it stood firm, and proved itself capable of withstanding
any sea it may ever be exposed to. This vessel is intended
to ply with passengers between London and Calais. She is
propelled by two steam engines, each of 40 horses' power; her
length is 110 feet, breadth 21 feet, and burthen 220 tons. She
is the property of Messrs. Joi.r.rrrE and BANKS, of London.
—(lbid.)

There seems to be no doubt of the establishment of a Steam_
vessel between this place and Plymouth, 40001. having been
already subscribed at that port.—(lbid.)

A new steam vessel, built entirely of plate iron (except her
deck) passed Dover Roads on Saturday last for Dieppe. She
draws only 13 inches water a head and two feet a stern, and. is
intended, we understand, to ply up the river Seine, from Rouen
to Paris.--(Kentish Gazette.)
London, England, 1822-05-22

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

PARIS, MAY 19.—Letters from Naples state
that a political change in the system of the Go-
vernment-seems to be in preparation. In conse-
quence of this change, earnestly desired by Aus-
tria, that Power will consent to diminish its Army
of Occupation. Its principal force will be con-
centrated in Lombardy.. It is.generally believed
at Naples that a new Ministry is on the point of
being formed, under the direction of M. de Medici.
This Statesman enjoys, at the same time, the con-
fidence of the. Neapolitan people, and that of the
Cabinet of Vienna. The rise which has taken
,glace here in the price of 1 e4olitan Securities,
in the Exchange, affords considerable confirma-
tion to these statements.—(Quotidienne.)
For some days past conflagrations have almost
entirely ceased in those Departments which had
suffered most from them.

THE THEATRES.

pacax-LANE.—Mr. KEAN kindly undertook
the part of Don Felix last night, for the benefit
of Miss TrDsWELL, who then retired from the
stage after a service of forty years. At the
end of the play she addressed a few words of
gratitude to the audience, but was evidently
overpowered by her feelings.
COVENT GARDEN.--Mr. YOUNG for the first
time appeared last-night, for his own benefit, in
the part of King John, which he sustained with
his usual force and judgment. Mr. MACREADY
was not less successful in the part of Hubert ;
C. KEMBLE gave an animated support to the-
Part of Falconbridge, and Mrs. FAUCIT was
very respectable in that of Lady Constance.—
The very numerous audience that attended
evinced the high estimation in which Mr. YOUNG
is held for his personal worth as well as profes-
sional abilities.
