lETNA.—A SKETCH.
It was a lovely night ;—.the crescent moon,
(A bark of beauty on its dark blue sea)
Winning its way amid the billowy clouds,
Unoared, unpiloted, moved on. The sky
Was studded thick with stars, which glittering streamed
An intermittent splendour through the heavens.
I turned my 'glance to.earth ; hie mountain winds
Were sleeping in their caves,—and the wild sea
With its innumerous billows melted down
To one unmoving mass, lay stretched beneath
In deep and tranced slumber; giving back
The host above, with all its dazzling shene,
To Fancy's ken, as though the luminous sky
Had rained down stars upon its breast. Suddenly,
The scene grew dim : those living lights rushed out,
And the fair moon, with all her gorgeous train,
Had vanished like the frost-work of a dream.

Darkness arose ;—and volumed clouds swept o'er
Earth and the ocean. Through the gloom, at times,
Skißan /Etna's blood-red flame was seen
Fitfully flickering. The stillness now
Yielded to murmurs hurtling on the air
From out her deep-voiced crater ; and the winds
Burst through their bonds of adamant, and lashed
The weltering-ocean, that so lately lay
Calm as the slumbers of a cradled child,
To a demoniac's madness. The broad wave
Swelled into boiling surges, which appeared,
Whene'er the mountain's lurid light revealed '
Their progress to the eye, presumptuously,
To dash against the ebon roof of heaven.

Then came a sound—a fearful, deafening sound—
Sudden and loud, as if an earthquake rent
The globe to its foundations : with a rush,
Startling deep Midnight on her throne, rose up,
From the red mouth of .tEtna's burning mount,
A giant tree of fire, whence sprouted out
Thousands of boundless branches, which put forth
Their fiery foliage in the sky, and showered
Their fruit, the red-hot levin, to the earth,
In terrible.profusion. Some fell bank
Into the hell from whence they sprang, and some
Gaining an impulse from the winds that raged
Unceasingly around, sped o'er the main,
And, hissing, dived to an eternal home
Beneath its yawning billows. The black smoke.
Blotting the snows that shroud chill Cuma's height,
Rolled down the mountain's sides, girding its base
With artificial darkness ; for the sea,
Catania's palaces and towers, and even
The far-off shores of Syracuse, revealed
In the deep glare that deluged heaven and earth,
Flashed forth in fearful light upon the eye.
And there was seen a lake of liquid fire
Streaming and streaming slowly on its course, •
And widening as it flowed (like the dread jaws
Of some huge monster exerts prey be fanged).
At its approach the loftiest pines bent down,
And strewed its surface with their trunks ;—the earth
Shook at its coming—towns and villages,
Deserted of their habitants, were whelmed
Amid the flood, and lent it ampler force.
The noble's palace, and the peasant's cot,
Alike but served to swell its fiery tide.
Shrieks of wild anguish rushed upon the, gale;
And universal Nature seemed to wrestle
: With the gaunt forms of Darkness and Despair.

THE ARMY.

The detachment of officers of the Ordnance Department
(under the direction of Major Thomas Colby, of the Royal
Engineers), employed in the Trigonometrical Survey in the
,Western isles of Scotland, have recently returned from thecae
to the Tower, the season not allowing them to continue their
laborious, duties in those islands. In the spring they will re_
turn to the same part. Other detachments in various places in
Great Britain will remain and continue the survey as the wea-
ther will permit them. The stations are, Ayrshire, Northern
Counties of North Wales, and the Eastern Counties of Eng
land.

MATCH TO NEWBURY.

Mr. R. Abetnethy, the pedestrian, started at one o'clock
yesterday morning, to go from Park-lane to Newbury, and re.
turn, 112 miles, in 28 hours. He reached Hounslow at a quar-
ter before three o'clock, And was at Maidenhead Bridge, 26
miles, at six'o'clock. He passed through Twyford, 34 miles, at
eight o'clock. The pedestrian travels alone, and is desirous of
avoiding public gaze. Like Captain Barclay, his object is to
ascertain his powers, rather than for money. This undertaking
is for 10 sovereigns.

We received-last night, by Express, French
Papers to the 24th inst. and private letters of
the 24d. The former maintain au unbroken
silence on the qpestion of war with Spain, and
only contain details of the struggles of the few
detached parties of Insurgents which still main-
tain themselves in the Peninsula. To one
of these, commanded by O'Donnel, the im-
posing name of Army of the Faith is still
applied, though it appears by the French ac-
counts themselves, to be too feeble in numbers to
perform the least service, and abandons its posi-
tions whenever it is approached, imitating, how-
ever, the Parthians in nothing but their flight.—
Yet this is called' by the Ultra Papers carrying
on the offensive, and because O'Donnel was turn-
ed by Torrijos, cut off from France, and obliged
to throw himself on the road to Vittoria, that
movement, which exposes him to almost certain
destruction, is .represented as an advance ! The
private letters from the French capital are all
written in a pacific spirit.

MORRISON'S PRESERVED PORTABLE TURTLE,
Sent in Jai's, (hermetically sealed) to any part of the World,
and warranted to retain its good qualities for years.
PLIE TURTLE in these Jars consists of the
prime parts of the Fish, killed in the West Indies, when
in the highest health and condition, and will be found to excel
in richness and flavour, the produce of the half-starved Animal,
hitherto used in this Country, after a voyage of several
months.
The TURTLE will also be found infinitely cheaper than that
sold by the great Dealers, not merely from the obvious dif-
ference in price, but from its consisting of nothing but pure
Turtle, and no such refuse as White Meat, Tripe, or Liver.
To Families residing in the Country, and to Hotel and.
Tavern Keepers, this TURTLE cannot but be a great con-
venience,_ as affording, at almost instant notice, the necessary
supply of exquisite Soup, without the waste and loss attendant
on dressing a whole Turtle.
Certificates of its excellence from Personages of the highest
distinction and best taste may be seen ; but a single trial is
requested in preference, as more certain of insuring appro-
bation.
To be had Dressed or Undressed, at the rate of 10s. per
Quart Dressed, or )2s. 6d. per Quart Undressed ; which last
makes nearly three times its own quantity of the former. The
Dressed requires only to be warmed up, and with the Un-
dressed a Receipt will be given, by which any Cook may make
it into excellent Soup.
N. B.—A liberal discount allowed to those who purchase to.
Dress, and Sell again to Customers, taking a-certain quantity.
FOR READY MONEY ONLY.

BOXING.

JOSHUA HUDSON AND WELLS THE BATH MAN.-=-It
had been whispered about in the sporting circles, that a plant
from Bath had arrived in London to take the shine out of some
of the fistic heroes of the London ring. Josh. and the new
candidate for fighting fame fell in with each other on Tuesday
night, at a jovial party, when after plenty of chaffing, Josh. be-
came jealous of a rival, and off he doffed his toggcry, and gave
the Bath man a punch in the head, which he was too good to
take quietly. The parties retired to a chosen. spot, peeled, and
turned to. Harry Holt seconded Josh, and Mason the Bath
man.

A merry battle of 35 minutes followed, although neither of
the men were in right condition. Josh, in his usual bull dog
ibrm, went up to his adversary's head and dealt out punishment ;
but he found in Wells a man not easy to be shook ofF. Josh.
was parried and returned upon, and both went down.
2. Josh. led in this round, but he was thrown a heavy cross-
buttock.

The next four rounds produced something like equal fight,
both proving high-couraged ones. The claret bustled about
freely, and the men got tired. Josh. was thrown heavily again
at the end of the 6th round, and lamed in the knee.

7. Josh. went limping to the scratch and hit away under great
disadvantages, but he was too good to !truck. He placed a
rattling facer on his adversary, who threw him, and that seemed
at this stage of the fight to be his aim.
In the 10th round the gallant Josh, managed to reduce vic-
tory to a tolerable certainty. He rattled away, and did smart
execution. It was Newgate to a scout ken.
11. and 12. Josh. had his work to do, and he wos thrown
heavily in the last of these rounds.
The 13th finished the business ; Josh, hit his adversary on
the mark where the remains of two pounds of. solid had been
deposited—and he gave in.
The fight was for pure love and glory, and Hudson won it
under great disadvantages.

Cuazous FACT.—Last Tuesday, when the
York mail arrived at the Cross Keys in this town
(Hull) at about six o'clock in the morning, a hen
was discovered roosting on the top. On inquiry
it turned out that she had come all the way from
York in that state. She had chosen that place
for her night's lodging some time previous to the
coach being brought out, and, undisturbed by the
harnessing of the horses or the motion of the
vehicle, had remained stationary the whole of the
way. There were no outside passengers, and
the night was dark as well as excessively cold.—

COUNTRY MARKETS AND FAIRS,

DURING THE LAST WEEK.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, Oct. 8

We had a large supply of New Wheat at to-day's market,
principally Irish; but of other Grain it was not of that mag.
nit ude so generally expected when the wind changed to the
westward. A considerable parcel of Wheat, the growth of
1821, was offered by auction, and a mere trifle of very infe-
rior met with buyers at 3s 3d to 3s 4d per 70Ibs; neither was
that produced in 1820 more saleable ; we consider, both de-
scriptions lowered in value ad per bushel. Notwithstanding
there was a fair demand for good New Irish, the finest sam-
ples only fetched 4s 9d to ss, being a reduction of Is per
701bs since this day week. Little was done in any other sost
of Corn, and prices nominal. The late arrivals of New
Irish Oats meet a languid sale, and are id to 2d lower, the
highest prices obtainable being from 2s 4d to 2s 7d per
brisliel. Flour was 2s to 3s per.paek cheaper.

[M9RNING',.HERALp.]

It appears Ly, a Flanders mail; which arrived
on Saturday, that the Austrian Government have
it in ,contemplation to enter into a compromise
with our Government as to the seven Millions;
-which have been owing to this country for so
many years, and of which debt England has not
received, for a great length of time, even the
in:erest. We had given up this debt as one
lost_ to the country,, both as it regarded the
principal and the interest. It' would not sur-
prise us if a compromise were entered into,
and that, in the .first instance, one-half of the
debt were paid to the *British Government. But
how will this be done?—By raising a loan in
England, through the house of Messrs. Roths-
child, or some other, on as favourable ,termS as
the Austrian Government will he able to nego-
ciate it. The new debt will 'then be inscribed
on the Austrian Great Book, and will be owing
to such persons in England as , are fond of such
securities, and the proceeds will be paid to John
Bull, generally.. This is all perfectly fair ; and
we should wish that the whole Austrian debt of
seven, millions
~were. in this manner liquidated,
and transfered to those, who know no better how
to dispose of such part of their capital as they
choose to adventure in this manner.

[NEW TIMES.]
Oiir Readers must be not a little amused with
the history of the Peruvian Loan, For our own

part we are quite satisfied that if the very re-
spectable Mr. Lemuel Gulliver were to appear
on the stage again, and to issue proposals for a
loan. to the Republic of Laputa, he would run
a hazard of being suffocated by the pressure of
subscribers to set down their names. We have not
the honour of knowing their Excellencies John
Garcia del Rio, Founder of the Order of the
Sun, and General Paroissien, the other Founder
of the Order of the other Sun ; but unless they
are Gentlemen of imperturbable gravity, we
conceive that they must be in danger of expiring
with laughter at the storm they have raised on
the Royal Exchange. That there should have
been almost a boxing match for the honour of
supplying them with Twelve Hundred Thousand
Pounds sterling, is what they certainly could
never have contemplated ; and that the disap-
pointed party should have gone the length of
putting their griefs on paper, and issuing a hand-
bill, to prove how cruelly they had been treated,
is something which their Excellencies will find
it extremely difficut to make the political econo-
mists of Peruvia comprehend.

BERBICE PAPERS.

We -yesterday received Derbice Papers to tke
20th idly, from which we give the following"0-x.;
tracts relative to the means about to he adopted
there to prevent the eScape of slaves from that
Colony:— • ,

. . .
FROM THE ROYAL GAZETTE OF THE f;Tir.
PROCLAMATION.

BY HIS EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR AND THE 'now-min.
ABLE MEMBERS OF THE COURT OF POLICY AND 'CBI-
MINALJUSTICE -OF THE COLONY OF BERBICE.

To alI whom theSe presents may come greeting.
'Whereas, we hate taken into our serious consideration the
improper use made of cothials, canoes, and other small boats,-
by which runaway slaves easily evade pursuit, and hold dan.:
gerous communication, tending to the increase of offence. It
is therefore we have.thought fit to• enact and command, as we
do hereby enact and command—.
Ist, That each and every inhabitant within this Colony being
in the possession of corjaal, canoe, or other small bolts, whether
for their own proper use, Or belonging to plantations under
their direction or administration, shall be obliged to paint, of
cause to be. painted, On a conspicuous part of the same, the
name of such proprietor or plantation to which they belong, oa
pain of forfeiture of any such corjaal, canoe; or small boat ;
and all goods found on board, which shall be foram f:h sold by
the Fiscal at Venice, and the net proceeds divided as follows:
One half to those who shall seize such boat, and the other half
to the Fiscal. .

2; Commanding that froniftencefetth no slave under any pre-
tence whatever shall be permitted to own a corjaal, or other-
small boat, however named. _ .

3.• In order to prevent evil disposed pototis from lending
their names to any slave foi the purpose of possessing a corL,
jaat, canoe, or other small boat, whereby the intent and mean-
ing of these presents may be evaded or frustrated, such ptmsOts
or persons detected in so doing; sitall, in addition to the forfei-
ture already declared and enacted, incur a penalty of SOW., or
other arbitrary punishment, according to the exigency of the
case. Said fine to.be divided; one-third to the petty duties;
one;third for, the Fiscal, and the remaining third to the potr
of the Colony.
And lastly, These presents shall take effect and be in full
force two months from this date.
And in order that no ignorance may be pretended, theses
presents shall be published, printed, and posted up as cus-
tomary. ,
Thus enacted in °int nidinar!, Session, and republished
3d Jtlly, as ordered by his Excellency., .

MATCH TO SALISBURY.

Mr. Jenkinson, the pedestrian, started on 'Wednesday, from
Kensington, to go to Salisbury and return to Egham, a distance
of 140 miles, in 56 hours. The pedestrian did 20 miles in the
first four hours, and halted an hour ; he proceeded on, and.
performed at the rate of nine miles in two hours until he per-
formed the first quarter of his distance in ten hours. He touched
on the skirts of Salisbury in his 29th hour, fresh and well, and
he halted two hours, and left there at ten o'clock on Thursday
morning, having 64 miles to accomplish in 27 hours. He began
to get lame at Basingstoke, but he had 27 miles only to do in
15 hours. He continued to do about three miles an hour, which
left plenty of time to rest, and he won the match with half an
hour to spare.

that these soldiers, who were at Leganes, had hostile inten-
tions,- and had refused to repair to Madrid without arms, as
they were ordered. General Copons, Commandant-General of
Madrid and its Province, left the capital on the 20th, with 400
men, at ten o'clock 'at night, and arrived at Leganes on the
21st at day-break, where he obliged.the mutineers to lay down
their arms, and conducted them to Madrid.

The Members of the Club La Fontana have violently com-
plained, for some days past, of an assembly which took place
in the house of a Grandee, and which was attended by several
Members of the Society of L' Anillo, of those who took part in
the plot for introducing two Chambers, the Veto, &c. They
pretend that papers subversive of the system were read there,
and even that means were considered of asking the aid of the
Holy Alliance against the Evaltados.
On this occasion, on the 22d, in the evening, groups of people
passed before the houses of Martinez de la Rosa, D'Arguelles
(Augustin), and even of the French Ambassador, crying,
" Down with the Anilleros ! Down with the Ultras !" From
this it appears that the moderate Constitutionalists have not
lost all hope, but that their adversaries are fully resolved to
make this sect disappear, several individuals of which have
already left Madrid, some to go to the provinces, others to
seek an asylum in France, such as the Ex-Minister Clemen-
cin and the Count of Goyeneche, who have lately passed
through Bayonne.
We have no news of the Army of the Faith, for the Secret
Committee, which we have at Bayonne, has not published any
for some days : we cannot receive any from the Constitution-
alists, because Quesada absolutely intercepts all the couriers
from Navarre. It is said that Lieutenant-General Don Carlos
O'Donnell, who has been for these few days at Bayonne, is
going to take the command of Quesatla!s army. ' •
We expected the news of the defeat of the Trappist to be
confirmed by the letters from Oleron, but nothing has trans-
pired to-day on the subject.

Some very large purchases were made yester-
day at the Stock Exchange. Consols, at the
opening of the market, were-dull, and some bar-
gains were done as low as 78 for the Account ;
bnt in a short time business assumed a livelier
aspect, and Comsols finally closed at 791 sellers.
The rumours respecting Russia and Turkey
were, as usual, utterly inconsistent, and contra-
dictory. .The Hamburg Papers of the 2d inst.
contain ad vices from Moldavia to the 14th of
February, stating that. Count Wittgenstein's
corps had suspended its march ; from which it
was inferred that peace would be preserved :
and on the other hand, letters from Paris assert-
ed that a commercial courier had arrived from
Rt. Petersburg, which place he'left on the 17th of
Feb., bringing accounts that a war with Turkey
was on the very eve of breaking out. Our.own in-
telligence is of a pacific complexion: The follow-

IMPROVEMENTS IN SAIL-CLOTH.

FIIE PROPRIETORS .of the ANTI_
MILDEW PROCESS have to announce the follow-
ing additional Testimonial :
Messrs. BROWELT. and Co. _Feb. 14, 1822.
I have the satisfaction tniinform you I hare had afore-top:
mast's stay-sail made of unbleached canvas, prepared by yon,
on board the Latona, from London to Shields, during the
last four months, in which I experienced very heavy gales
of 'wind, the sail being wet and dry, and often confined in
the net, and has no appearance of Mildew.
JAM ES• PATERSON. ,
This is to certify, that the above sail was made by us of
Broweil and Co.'s prepared,canva., and that we have this day
examined it, and it has no appearance of Mildew.

the Process is equally applicable to the whitest and dearest
as well as to the brownest and cheapest Canvas. It does not.
in the least diminish the strength, but improves the colour
and softness of texture in all. It is effected in a few days, for
Five Shillings per Bolt, and is returned, when sent to them,
to all parts of the town without expense, the same breadth
and length as when received. A red Crown and B, or the
w•rela Anti-Mildew," are,marked in various places to spew
that the Bolt has undergone Browell and Co.'s Process.—
Sail-Cloth of various qualities, which have undergone the
Process, may be had at the following houses, viz. Messrs.
