THE ACACIA CERATE, prepnred frtm-
a Plant growing nn the Nloinitaios in the East Indies,
nd one of the most valuable in the Vegetable World. is
the greatest possible comfort that can be rendered to those
happy mothers who are desirous to nurse their infants,
but who suffer too frequently under the pain and misery of
Sore Nipple,. and all its attendant consequences. The
usual application of stimulants, which seldom or ever afford
even temporary relief, and in numberless instances, only
aggravate the pain of the sufferer, may now be avoided by
the use of this pet fectly innocent at.d sanative compound,
which is offered to Mothers, from a conviction that to
withhold so great a comfort Iron, them would be an act
of cruelty and injustice. I nontotrable testimonials of its
excellence, from the must respectable authority, can he given,
if required ; and it is recommended as an indispensable re-
quisite previous to the accoucheinent of every lady in the

JAMAICA PAPERS.

KINGSTON, JUNE 26. We have to caution the
public from placing belief in the various idle and
unpleasant rumours which were in circulation in
this city yesterday, many of them being without
the slightest founda►ion in troth ; and our readers
may be assured th►►t the following is the most
authentic and latest account from Hanover :
London, England, 1824-08-16

THE KING, &c.

WINDson, AUG. M.—Yesterday morning his MAJESTY,
accompanied by the Marquis Conyngham, left the Royal
Lodge, in the great park, in his travelling carriage and four,
attended by his usual outriders, and an escort of Life Guards,
for his Palace in Pall-Mall. His Majesty returned in the even-
ing to the Royal Lodge, where he dined. This morning his
Majesty heard divine service at his private chapel, Cumber-
land-lodge. Her Royal Highness the Princess Augusta is ex-
pected to return to Frogmore on Tuesday next, from Bag,sot- '
park. The old porter's lodge, which was lately converted
into a pheasantry, is now being made a private chapel for
his Majesty and suite. This is a very necessary altera-
tion, the King having at present some distance to go from
the Royal Lodge to his chapel at Cumberland-lodge. It is
expected to be ready for his Majesty by next Sunday week.
fhe new and elegant conservatory which was brought from
Brighton, is now erected at the Royal Lodge, and filled with
the choicest fruits and flowers. A new Orangery is also build-
ing in the at Cumberland Lodge upon a very extensive
plan, in which those orange trees so much admired by his Ma-
jesty from Hampton Court will be placed. The weather being
very unfavourable, there was no band on the terrace this after-
noon, and the town is very thin of visitors.—On Friday, one of
the navigators employed in excavating the foundation at the
Castle, discovered, at a considerable depth below the surface, a
gold ring. It is of antique workmanship; rudely chased, and
has the remains of an inscription in black letter character,
which, however, are so much defaced, as to render the motto
illegible.—The silver coin, which we mentioned a few days
since, has been ascertained to be of the date of Edward
Is has been presented by Mr. Wyatville to his Majesty.

LAW INTELLTGENCE.

COURT OF CHANCERY—(Tuxs DAY.)
CONSEQUENCE OF SENDING LETTERS TO THE LORD

CHANCELLOR.-TAMUIt V. FEAIINEY.

The Loan CHANcELLon., alluding to this case,
said, I have read over the whole of the papers
most carefully, and I had 'prepared myself to give
judgment in it this morning. Mr. Fearney has,
however, thought proper to send me this letter
(handing it down), but I have not, nor will I,
read it. 1 have repeatedly complained of ►his -
same thing, and I now repeat, that on no consi-
deration whatever will I, while I have the admi-
nistration of justice here, allow myself to be
biassed by any communication thus privately
made. The consequence•of the course purseed •
is, that I will not now give judgment, hut as the
communication has been made to me, perhaps
there may be something that Counsel'ought to he
advised of, and I shall therefore give them a►t
opportunity of reading it. before I proceed to dis- •
pose of the case.

Mr. lIAItT said, he was extremely sorry for
what had taken place, and Mr. Fearney had
only to thank himself for not getting judgment
this day.
JONES V. HODGSON.—The T.ottu CuANcEt.r.ott
dissolved the injunction in this case with costs.

giment of Dragoons, afterwards Captain in the 110th Regiment
of I ont, then Captain. in the Twenty-second Dragoons, and .
since reduced Captain in the Twentieth Light Dragoon's, came
up to claim his discharge which was opposed by Mr. Thomas
‘Vorrall and Messrs. Stonehouse and Co. The Insolvent, it-
appeared, had been in actual custody three years and fottr'
months. On his examination it appeared that by the'
will of his tither, Sir Edward Knatchbull, a legacy,
of 3001. was bequeathed to him, which he the insolvent had.
assigned over to Mr. Worrell for a debt contracted with him,
which he the Learned Counsel '(Mr. Cooke) impressed on the
Court, had previously been digitised of by the insolvent, upon
this much argument arose ; when the Court ordered that the
insolvent should be entitled to his discharge, upon payinerit of-
-251. per annum out of his half-pay for the.benefit of his credi.

GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY.

" Montego Bay Gazette Office, Three o'clock, June 23.
" We are much gratified in being able to congratulate the
country on the intelligence which has just been received from
the interior, through a respectable gentleman of this parish,
who left the Argyle shout an hoar since, and states that there
are at present, only six or eight of the Argyle, one or two of
the Knockalva, and four of the holden Grove negroes out, the
latter of which are expected to surrender themselves to-night.
Colonel Campbell, of the Western Interior, proposes to dis-
charge the detachment of the St. James's Militia, now sta-
tioned at Montpelier, to-night or to-morrow morning, unless
any thing not now contemplated occurs; and thinks it is likely
that the day after, the greater part of the militia in that dis-
trict may be allowed to return to their homes, the arrival
of the Maroons being expected to-night. We are happy
also to state, there is not the smallest inundation for at-
!aching any thing like. suspicion to the negroes belong-
ing to Mr. C. R. Ellis to that quarter; on the contrary, their
conduct has been meritorious, and a few of them have been
employed in pursuit of the runawys. We have every hope,
therefore, that an insurrection which has, from its commence-
ment and duration, borne so formidable an appearance, is about
to be crushed without the loss of many of the negroes' lives,
and none of the white population ; but we look with horror
and commiseration on what is to follow in the trial and conse-
quent punishment of the unhappy victims of the hypocrisy,
cant, anti cupidity of those self-serving moralists, Wilberibrce,
Buxton, Cropper, &c.
" It gives us great pleasure to mention, that 200 men, of the
22d regiment, under the command of Captain Donaldson, and
a small body of artillery, who were stationed in the Larracks of
this city, were embarked yesterday on board the Hussar, 46,
Captain G. Harris, C. 8., and proceeded this morning for Sit-
vanna-la-Mer. Major-General Sir John Keane, C. 8., with

IRISH LAW COURTS' BILL.

The House resolved into a Committee, and a salary was voted
out of the Consolidated Fund for a taring officer hi the com-
mon law business of the Courts.—The House resumed, the
Report to be received to-morrow.
SUPPLY.

The Report of the Committee of Supply was brought up.
Sir G. COCKBURN, in observance of the suggestion of the
Hon. Member for Aberdeen, given last night, had brought
down the papers relative to the promotion of masters in the
navy ; and though it would be seen from the papers that he
had been right in his statement of the fact, he was hound in
candour to admit, that with the information which the
Honourable Member had then before him, he could have come
to no other than that erroneous conclusion which he had formed.
He (Sir George Cockburn) was not aware of the precise form
of the regulations of which he had spoken, when he asserted,
in contradiction of the Honourable Gentleman, that masters
in the navy were able to advance in promotion, according
to their merits, just the same as midshipmen and lieutenants.
The fact was, that the papers on the table upon which the lion.
Gent. had proceeded were incomplete, and to perfect them,
another order in council, which he now held in his hand, dated
August, 15, 1805, must be added. This order was for the regu-
lation of the promotion of masters in the navy ; and after re-
citing the order of 1803, upon the same subject, (the only order
in possession of the Honourable Member for Aberdeen), it
decreed the suspension of the order for the future, in regard
to all masters whose meritorious conduct had deserved well of
the Admiralty, who were thereupon to be allowed, at the dis-
cretion of the Lords Commissioners, to pass their examinations
to serve as Lieutenants; anti six years of service in the navy,
either as master or second master, was to be considered equi-
valent to the same number of years spent in the service in the
capacity of midshipman.
Mr. HUME claimed the benefit of the admission now so ho-
nourably made by the Gallant Admiral. He had proceeded
upon the best information which could be got from the papers
before the House, for which he had moved in last Session. It
was no fault of his that this order had not been included in the
returns. Ile hoped that when he got the papers which he had
moved for, it would be found that sonic one or more meritorious
individuals had availed themselves of that provision in the re-
gulation which the lion. Baronet had read.
Mr. W. COURTENAY gave notice, that to-morrow he
should move for leave to bring in a Bill to consolidate the laws
respecting bankruptcy.
Mr. H U3I E wished to know, whether the Army Estimates,
or the remaining Navy Estimates, would be brought forward
on Friday ?
Lord PALMERSTON said he should bring forward the
Army Estimates on that day, if the papers could be printed in
time.

Si; GEORGE COCKBURN said, he would be ready to
bring on the Navy ordinary Estimates, if the Array Estimates
.were disposed of in time on Friday next.
The Reciprocity Duties' Indemnity Bill was read the first
and second time, and ordered to be printed.—Adjourned.

DREADFUL RIOT.

HAlrow-Gal:Da tr.—Yesterday Patrick M‘Dermot, John
M‘Derrnot, Stephen Finnerty, John Flanagan, Maurice Con-
nor, James Dawson, James Gangley, Dominick Flanagan,
James Morgan, and Michael Connell, were brought up in the
custody of the constables and watchmen of the neighbouring
parishes, charged with being concerned on Monday night in a
desperate riot at the Hare and Hounds public-house, St. John-
street, and with dreadfully wounding and beating different
watchmen and constables; a very few of whom were able to
attend at the Office, many of them being taken to different
hospitals.
It appeared in evidence, that nearly a hundred of the low
Irish of the neighbourhood assembled on Monday night at the
above-mentioned public-house for some club-meeting; and, at
eleven o'clock the landlord requested them to retire, which they
most daringly refused, and insisted on having more liquor.
Finding expostulation unavailing, he called in the watchman
to clear the house, but he %as immediately struck senseless,
and on the arrival of the different constables, they were succes-
sively struck down with sticks, pots, ac. and trampled upon.
Among the wounded who were able to attend was Thomp-
son, a powerful and active constable of Clerkenwell. Ile was
supported into the office to give his evidence, his head being in
a frightful state of contusion, and his clothes all covered with
blood. Others attended in nearly the same condition.
On bringing up the prisoners from the different watch-
houses, there was a violent attempt made by their associates
to rescue them; and when brought to the office, appre-
hension was entertained that a rescue would there be attempted.
Owing, however, to the precaution of securing firmly the back
entrance to the office, and active officers being placed in the
front, the plan was defeated.
The MAGISTRATE, after commenting on the savageness of
the prisoners' conduct, ordered them all to give twenty-four
hours' notice of bail, and the witnesses were desired to go forth-
, with to prefer bills of indictment against them.

THE KING.

WINDSOR, FEB. 17.—The KING greatly enjoyed his ride
to the Cottage yesterday, and seemed highly pleased with the
improvements that have lately been made there. His Majesty
returned to the Castle to dinner in excellent spirits.—At two
o'clock this afternoon, his Majesty, accompanied by the Mar-
quis Conyngliam and suite, again took a drive in the pony
chaise to his Lodge in the Great Park. His Majesty drove
himself, and was looking remarkably well.
WINDSOR, FEB. I6.—The Duke of Wellington left the
Royal Castle at an early hour this morning for London. The
Duke of York left last night, between nine and ten o'clock,
after dining with his Majesty and a select party, his Royal
'Highness declining to stop to the evening party, at which
there were some select pieces of sacred music performed.—
Among the dinner party were the Princess Augusta, the Duke
of Dorset, the Duke of Wellington, &c. This morning his
Majesty, attended by the Duke of Dorset, took an airing in
his phaeton, and proceeded up the long walk, inspecting the
great and extensive works that are going on in rides, walks,
and pleasure-grounds, leading to and surrounding the King's
Lodge. His Majesty gave some fresh directions. It is ex-
pected his Majesty will leave here on Wednesday for London.

COAL DUTIES.

The Sheriff's of London and Middlesex appeared at the bar
of the House with a petition from the Lord Mayor, Aldermen,
and Commons Of the City of London, in Common Council as
sembled, praying for relief from the existing Coal-duties.
Mr. Alderman WOOD, in moving that this petition be
broaght up, expressed a hope that the Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer had already received a sufficient number of petitions to
induce him to take off' this unjust and partial tax. The jabs-
bitants of other parts of the country were equally clamorous for
the abolition of the duty on coals, though they were not suffer-
ers from it to the same degree as the inhabitants of London and
Westminster. Indeed, the unequal severity with which it
pressed on the inhabitants of the metropolis was evident from
this fact—that the cities of London and Westminster paid three-
fifths of the whole duty upon coals levied throughout the king-
dom. He trusted that it was unnecesary to say more to the
Chancellor of the Exchequer to induce him to give some relief
to the present petitioners.
The petition was laid on the table, and ordered to be printed ;
as were three similar petitions--one from the ward of Aldgate,
presented by Mr. Alderman BRIDGES; another from the
ward of Cripplegate, presented by Mr. Alderman WOOD; and
a third from Shaftesbury, presented by a Member whose name
we could not learn.

Colonel DAVIES gave notice, that on Wednesday, the 23th,
he should move for an account of the manner in which certain
sums of money, taken from the indemnity paid by France to
this country, had been expended.
IRELAND.

Mr. JOHN SMITH was understood to say, that on Mon-

BOXERS.

TUE CnassrrowsniP.—Langan, in reply to Spring's last
letter, says:—"N y friends are so satisfied with my conduct, that
they are ready to back me against Spring for 5001. on a stage,
which they think the only way of guarding against a repetition
of unfair treatment. But when Spring finds me thus support-
ed, he rastes his demand to a thousand; on the ground that I
challenged him to fight for any sum from 3001. to 1,0001. My
words were—that I would fight him for, front 3001. to 5001., or
for 1,0001., if I were backed, and I do not deny them; for, if I
had 100,0001. 1 would confidently stake it. But 5001. is a sum
between 300/. and 1,000/. ; and, if I could get backed for 1,0001.
I should rejoice at it, as it would at once do away this excuse of
Spring. I think, however, that it will not tell much for his
credit if he continues to reject the 500/., which I can command,
and 50/. of which I am ready to lay down at Belcher's, to make
the match, any tune he thinks proper."

FINE ARTS.

A very amusing little Work has just been pubs
lished by Mr. LEIon, of the Strand, intended as
" A Present for the Youth of both Sexes," and
entitled the M-vaioname or MANY THOUSAND
VIEWS. It consists of several sections of one
large and continued landscape, which, by being
occasionally transposed, afford an almost inter-
minable change of scene. Let the Artist, how-
ever, speak for himself, as the following extract
from the accompanying description will give an
excellent idea of the plan of the "111.yrioraina."
" The M ItIORANIA is a moveable Picture, capable of form-
ing an almost endless variety of Picturesque Scenery, and ad-
mirably adapted to excite amongst young Persons a Taste for
Drawing, to furnish them with excellent subjects for imitation,
and to supply an inexhaustible source of amusement. It de-
rives its name from two Greek words, mrias, multitude,
oranza, scene, view, or landscape ; and consists of numerous
Sections or Fragments of Landscapes on Cards, neatly co-
loured. These are so ingeniously contrived, that any two or
more placed together will form a pleasing view ; or if the whole
ate put at once on a table, they will admit of the astonishing
number of 20,922,789,808,000 variations.
" The original idea of the MYRIORAMA was suggested by.
M. Bres of Paris ; but his elfhrts, though very ingenious, par-
took of the imperfections incident to all first attempts. The
Views were contracted in their style, and very limited in their
power of creating variety. In both these respects the English
Artist trusts that he has improved, and produced a Work free
in its execution, and almost exhaustless in its variations."
We cannot, however, dismiss this pleasing
little Publication without bestowing a few words
of praise on the manner in which it has been pro-
duced ; and we feel satisfied that, far from being
confined to the " Youth of both Sexes," persons
of more matured judgment will derive much gra-
tification from an inspection of the " itisriorama."
London, England, 1824-02-27

[MORNING CHRONICLE.]

We are not surprised at the result of the Mo-
tion of Mr. Abercrombie for an extension of the
Elective Franchise to the respectable citizens of
Edinburgh, nor at the sort of arguments urged in
support of the existing state of things. Scotland
has no popular Representation, and will never
obtain a popular Representation till the Empire
at large is reformed. 'Though we should wish to
see the inhabitants of the great cities of Scot-
land enabled to return to Parliament men pos-
sessed of their confidence, and able to repre-
sent them fairly in Parliament, we confess we
should be sorry to see Scotland assimilated to
England with respect to the elective franchise.
England at present pays, in the restrictions of a
hundred kinds imposed on the people with a
view to command elections, a heavy tax from
which Scotland is exempted. If the election
system of England were what it ought to be,
that is, if the franchise were so extensive that it
could not be commanded by corrupt means, these
restrictions would be unnecessary. As it is,
they- are inevitable. We do not mean to say,
that, defective as the English Representation is,
the country is not much better with it than it
could possibly be without it ; hut, then, Scot-
land enjoys all that benefit without paying the
corresponding taxes. An assimilation of Scot-
land to England would only subject Scotland to
the inconveniencies of the South, without im-
proving the condition of England. We should be
sorry to see the tenantry of Scotland, who are
well-informed and high-minded men, sub-
jected to the mortification of appearing at the
hustings at the back of their Landlords, and
ranked as it were with servants, as the
tenantry of ' England are. When the repre-
sentation of the country is reformed on a
comprehensive plaH, it will be necessary to in-
clude Scotland. But vt e should be sorry, under
the guise of a benefit, to degrade the people of
that country. It would, as we have observed,
be an undoubted benefit to open the great towns;
and to open Edinburgh was all that Mr. A ber-
crumbie at present wished to do ; but before we
approve of any further alteration, we should like
to see that it would really be beneficial to those
for whose good it is intended. At present the
corruption is confined to Teri few persons; and
we should lie sorry to see it as extended as it is
in England.
