THE MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE, AUGUST 12.
Our market to-day is supplied to an excess with Wheat,
both Old and New, and the New was offered at a reduction ot.
10s., and Old at an abatement of 6s. or Bs. We could not move
the Buyers into action, expecting, we suppose, a further re-
duction next week ; in Barley little doing ; and at last week's
prices ; Peas and Beans little doing, the same in Oats ; tha
prices are as last week. No alteration that we hear of in th-k
price of Flour this week.

and effect.—We therefore hope that the success

ed the part of Rosina, in the opera of the Of Seville,
and gave the songs with a taste, spirit, and e:xeciidon; which
drew forth loud and general approbation ; but we could hale
wished the encores had been less frequent, considering her late
indispo3itiou. Miss Tree combines, with her hightalenti as
a vocalist, those of a spirited and judkious actreAs ; .
these, added to a beautiful countenance, and a th:licate
and handsome figure, can never fail to render her' appear- .

)hurray's representation of. the Barber was highly coml. •
cal and entertaining. The opera was succeeded by the
Sleeping Draught and Monsieur Ponson, which lette: went utf
with its usual eclat. The house was attended by a numerous
and fashionable audience.

ORNIT11061? Y.Oll Tuesday evening, while
a party of Gentleinen in the neighbourhood of this city were tr. -
tertaining themselves over a bowl of punch, soon after the can-
dles were lighted, an unusual cry was heard at one of the win-
dows, which being opened, there flew in a most beautiful and
rare species of the Strix Olis' long-eared cr horned owl and, t.
the no small amusement of the party, placed itself close by the
punch bowl: it sat and looked with the uunost composure
and gravity all around, allowing itself to be handled freely, and
is now quite domesticated. This fine bird, though young, mea-
sures from tip to tip three feet two inches. its horns are tWJ
inches in length, and upon the whole it has a most miijestic iii...
pearance.—( Glasgow Herald.) . . . .
Remarkable Instance of Courage in a ?,till-af.;:z.:-On Tues-
day last a cow belonging to Mr. Nelson, of the Sun public-
house, at Buckingham, rushing out of a.thicket in a violent
manner to escape from the annoyance of the flies, Was immedi.
ately pinned by Mr. Nelson's bull-dog. The cow, making
every exertion to liberate herself from her unwelcome visitor,
broke both his jaws, and literally tore the teeth,oat of his.
head. The dog, nevertheless, made repeated attempts, to '
regain his hold, racing the cow many times roend ttie ground, .
and catching her by the nose ; but being unable Again.-to
hold her, it excited the surprize of his master. The sow at
length sprang over a double hedge, followed by the dog, who
was stopped by Serjeant Wade, and it being ascertained that
his jaws were broken, he was immediately, strangled. • . ..
A few days since, during a thunder 'storm, a •
young woman took shelter under a tree; on the read leading
from Newark to Lincoln, when an Irishman came up,. and u.
his Hibernian brogue accosted her, saying, *, I'll thank you for
your money, my jewel !" The girl gave the fellow a fierie stare
1 in the face, which so disconcerted Paddy, that it glee: her an
opportunity to run off, and before the man recovered himself
she had got to such a distance that he, by his beet endeavour,
was unable to overtake her, and she fortunately eseapA being '
' robbed.--(Lincoln Advertiser.)
On Thursday one hundred and thirteen Gen-
tlemen had conferred on them, by the Senatus Acaderniens of.
the University of this City, the degree of Doctor in Ale,licize,
after having completed the regular course of study, and gone
through the appointed examinations, and likewise publicly &.-
fended their respective inaugural dissertations.—(Pdfatnires

Whether the Spaniards may adopt immedi-
ately, or postpone tcl a more convenient season,
such military measures as would be fitted to
counteract tlfe operations a pprehended 'from the
Gordon- Sdnitaire, they have, it 'appeals, within
the' last month, retaliated upon France the pro-
hibitory system which 'she has so long enforced
a4ainst Spanish merchandize, which by means of
the cordon Is exchided 'from passing the Pyrenf
nian frontier, except at a single point. A Spa-
nish decree bears date July 20, for restraining the
admission of Freticli'goods into Spain, to the road
of Irun only ; thus cutting Off, so far as law can
alert it, the communication "of France with Na-
.virre • and AiTagon—thdse Provinces Which have
been most disturbed by the influence and secret
agents of the French Government.. So stria is
'the principle Of ititendedrexclusion, that no indi-
• Vidual traveller will be allowed to pass the pro-
hibited • ground, but at the peril of_arreFt as a
suspicious person; and even by the way of Irun,
no one must enter-Spain, without a passport from
the SPanish Consul at Bayonne. These official
nieisures.must at the same time •be regarded as
mote-judieative of thee spirit' which guides the

We consider the vertliCt. in the case of the

gious* freedom to whidit'the people of 'England •
are entitled; To..the rivalry between the diffe-
'rent -religious sects we are Chiefly indebted for
the general diffusion of a religious spirit through-
this- country:. The morals of the people, too,
as hag been observed by a great writer, are ne-
cessarily -tritteh ltn-prOved• by 'the multiplication
or religious cominunities, who anxiously watch
'conduct .of each other. Accordingly,
wherever disienters have appeared, an evi-
-1 dent improvement in the' charadter of the popula-
tion-has rapidly followed=the old have become
more Orderly and sober, and the young have more
generally received the 'benefit of instruction,—
This the memberi of the Establiihed Church
must themselves allow:—All the Dissenting
Clergy , pique themselves. on their possessing
greater zeal and assiduity than the Ministers of
-the Establishment ; and indeed a large body of
Dissenters, the Wesleyan Methodists, prOfess,
we • believe, the doctrines of the Establishment,
and only quarrel with its practice. • The liberty
' of inveighing against the' vices of the Establish-
ment- is more or less involved in their. very
title to existence. It is •chiefly by holding up
its vices and defects, by &Veiling on the worldly
Mindedness-and lukewarmness of its Ministers,
their inattention to matters appertaining to the
life to come, that they can. .hope• to obtain fol-
loviers and to fill their' Churches. ThiS is what
Wesley and Whitfield did, and this is 'what 'many
of their most successful followers have done, and
in the writings of the former we could point out
far more •severe satires on • the conduct M -the
Established Clergy than the one which a Jury
has in this case pronounced a libel. •

MOST DESTRUCTIVE FlRE.—Yesterday after.

SHAKESPEARERE ED, and Mr.-G: W,AVAlNwitic it T ,White's
Yard, Dock-street, Upper Eait Smithfield, near the western
enttatice of the London Docks. Messrs. Shakespeare Reed and
Wainwright carried on the. largest Plate Glassillanufactory in
London, and consequently, a fire in such valuable buildings,
even in the day time, occasioned the utmost consternation and
alarm in the eastern part of the Metropolis. , Captain Cumber-
and, who commanded the picquet guard of the 3d Guards at
Ihe loweri -,instantly turned out, anti brought the picquet to the
TS. They were of the most essential service in clearing away
the neighbouring ground for the firemen to work their engines;
they. were•prnniptly assisted by Jeffery and his assistants of
Mg. Thames Police, aided also by the Gentlemen in the neigh-
bourhood, many of whom are constables, and were preparing to
go to church, when the work of necessity and tnercycalled them
from their religious duties. Although there wasplenty of water,
.and prompt assistance was afforded by.the fire-engines, the pre-
mises, which appeared like well-built barracks equal to the ac-
-commodation of 5000 men, were reduced to a heap of ruins;
and of this largenianUfactory nothing now remains but the shat-
tered walls,. expected: every moment to fall, and a few rafters
reduced to charcoal. The property is immense, we will not
even mention-the amounts we have heard. The origin. of the
fire is not known.' A great number of industrious men are for
'a time, we'fear, through this unfortunate circumstance, thrown
.otit•of employment. ' - - '
