IMPORTANT TO ADVERTISERS.
THE STAMP RETURNS for 1840 prove
that THE WEEKLY CHRONICLE publishes every
week a number more than equal to
5 Examiners, or 7 True Suns, or
5 St. James's Chronicles, or '7 Britannias, or
5i Spectators, or 8 Bell's New Messe

THE PRESIDENT STEAMER.

We are sorry to say that it is not in our power to
communicate any favourable information with regard
to this long and anxiously expected vessel. It is
now thirty-three days since she left New York,
and from that time to the present nothing has been
heard of her. The rumour of a large steamer seen
off Falmouth, and conjectured to bo the President,
brought by way of London, and another rumour of
a similar vessel seen off Cork, on which the Dublin
papers founded an anticipation of the arrival of the
missing vessel, have both preyed to be unfounded, and
we are sorry to say that a report which was cur-
rent in Liverpool yesterday, to the effect that Mrs.
Roberts, the wife of the captain of the President,
bad received a letter from her husband, announcing
his safe arrival at Madeira is equally so. For about
an hour this report was confidently believed, and even
announced at the Underwriters' Rooms, but an imme-
diate inquiry instituted by the Superintendent of that
establishment, proved it to be entirely a mistake, ori-
ginating, we beliese, in the stupidity of a servant. In
the meanwhile, the conjectures as to the fate of the
President are innumerable. Some suppose that she has
put back to New York ; others, that she has pro-
ceeded to Bermuda, or the Western Isles ; and others
fear that she is lost. All this is mere conjecture. It
is by no means improbable that the Caledonia—the
Halifax packet of the 3d, and which would sail from
Boston on the Ist instant—will bring some information
respecting her. The Caledonia will be here either to-
morrow or on Thursday.—Liverpool Times.

THE FLOGGING PEER :
OR, HOW TO OBSERVE THE SABBATH.

" The Earl of Cardigan cannot allow the public to for-
get him for au instant. On Sunday last, the 11th Hussars
were marched into the Riding-school for div ne service.
Players were read, and a sermon was preached. On the
conclusion of divine service the Trumpet-majcr was or-
dered to make things ready for corporal punishment ; and
in this:Riding-school, and on a Sunday, where, not an hour
before, the whole regiment was engaged in prayer, private
Rogers was tied up and flogged, receiving ene hundred
lashe.."—Morning Chronicle of this Day.

His Lordship goes to the House of Prayer,
To offer, no doubt, his devotions there ;
He hears the Preacher lay solemn stress
On acts of mercy and gentleneis ;
He hears him enforce the doctrines high
Of pure, unleavened humanity ;
How man should bear with bis fellow-man,
And his failings, as Burns says, "gently scan ;"
Abjure false pride and malignant strife,
With all that tends to embitter life;
The Saviour's command of Love obey,
And aye keep ho]y the Sabbath day !

His Lordship hears these truths divine,
And to show that he thinks them wondrous fine,
He hurries from church with flying feet,
Bids the trump to sound, and the drum to beat,
And—just as his troops are towards him jogging_
Orders a man to stripfor a flogging 1
Oh virtuous deed, in a Peer who's come
Hissing-hot from a Christian dome 1
How strongly the tortured wretch's cry
Attests his genuine piety
How proves that the Chief of Mercy's clan
Is Ca'-o'-nine•talls Cardigan !

'Tis deemed a sin in the lowly poor,
To bake on the Sabbath day, to sure ;
But to torture a man, till his glazing eye
Stiffens with mortal agony,
Is deemed--alas, for the mournful fact l
In the lordly rich a religious act 1

old Poor-law had reduced them, and at the same time
to preserve the security of property and the peace or
society. It was enacted by the conjoint wisdom of
our ablest statesmen, whose sole object, I am con-
fident, was the welfare of the people, and whose public
and private characters fully warrant that belief. The
best security against oppression is the publicity
that at.ends all our proceedings under the pre-
sent law, which did not exist under, the old.
That some cases of hardship may occur, no man can
doubt ; where is the law that can provide against all
the ills that human nature is liable to, from unavoidable
accident, from idleness, and vice ? There is not in the
known world a country in which such efforts are made,
such laws in force to obviate all the misfortunes and
calamities of life. The present law lam determined
zealously to support, and I concur in most if not all
the amendments of the Bill now under consideration.
Under these circumstances
i I think you will deem it ex-
pedient to put the petition into the hands of some other
Peer. WESTERN."

ST. MARY, ISLINGTON.

The Report of the Assessors and Auditors was yes-
terday made in this parish, particularly referred to two
charges, the one for expenses incurred in the attempt. to
put down Sunday trading, and the other for a fort to
St. Stephen's Church, a font to All Saints, a font to
St. James, and for baptismal registers for three churches,
the item for the former being 401. 7s. 2d, and the item
for the latter being 33/. 7s. 2d. , The Assessor and
Auditor observed, in reference to the charges for sup.
pressing Sunday trading, that although they thought by
law they were bound to allow them, yet that they were
of opinion that the expense was not judiciously incurred,
and that the sanction of the Vestry ought to have been
first obtained ; and in reference to the charge on ac-
count of the district churches, they agreed that as these
edifices were raised by voluntary subscriptions, that the
expenses for the font, &c., ought to be defrayed in the
same way, and that, therefore, the money charged
against the parish ought not to allowed.
After some discussion the Report was in part adopted,
and the sums paid by the Churchwarden for fonts were
disallowed, and a resolution passed calling on the late
Churchwarden to repay the parish the money he had
improperly expended. A considerable discussion was
expected on this subject, but it was avoided by the
Church party giving up the point, they being too happy,
apparently, to slur over the proceeding as quietly and
speedily as possible. The sum expended to put down
Sunday trading was allowed, though strongly protested
against, and only allowed from an assurance given by
the same party that the expression of the Vestry's opi-
nion would prevent any such application of the funds in
future,

THE COMPLEXION AND SKIN.

ROWLAND'S K A LYD R,
An Eastern Botanical Discovery of surprising efficacy
for rendering the Skin soft and fair, composed for tho most
part of Or ental Balsamic Exotics, to t'ae utter exclusion of all
mineral admixture ; it is distinguished medicinally for its ex-
treme bland, purifying, and soothing action upon the skin, and,
by acting upon the pores and minute secretory vessels, expells
all impurities from the surface, allays every tendency to in-
flammation, and, by this means alone, effectually dissipates all
redness, tan, pimples, freckles, sunburn, and other unsightly
nutaneous visitations, so inimical to Female Beauty.
l'o Gentlemen afflicted with a tenderness of skin in shaving,

irritation. It effectually heals and prevents chapped and a
rough skin, and, from its extraordinary efficacy in allaying all
incidental inflammation, &c:

new and beautiful EVERLASTING TEETH, the most clean
and wholesome that can be worn. They are so exactly formed
to nature, both in shape and colour, that the closest observer
cannot detect the difference, with this advantage—they never
change colour, decay, or wear out ; and a complete set, on fine
gold, for which they will only charge 15 to 18 guineas, will last
for 20 years or upwards, and are far superior to those usually
charged 30 or 40 guineas ; a single tooth, one guinea ; three
ditto, two guineas and a half. Natural teeth supplied from 5/.
per set, or 10s. per tooth. Messrs. Browne and Cartwright's
method of fitting neither requires the extraction of stumps nor
gives the slightest pain ; and having had upwards of 20 years'
experience in the profession, can guarantee to restore perfect
mastication did articulation, having succeeded in thousands of
cases, in hundreds of which other dentists had entirely failed.
The above are totally different from the brittle glossy French
teeth, usually supplies by dentists as newly-discovered mineral
&c. A visit will convince the most sceptical of the fact.

NEW POOR LAW.

The Essex Herald has the following reply of Lord
Western to an application made to him by some inha-
bitants of Rayleigh, that he would present a petition to
the House of Lords against the Poor-law Amend-
ment
Act.
" I have received your letter of yesterday's date,
desiring me to present a petition to the House of
Lords, signed by the inhabitants of Rayleigh, the
purport of which is to express an opinion strongly
condemnatory of the existing Poor-law, which is de-
scribed as cruel and oppressive to the poor, also pray-
ing that the Amendment Bill may not pass into a law.
I am sorry to say I cannot faithfully perform this
duty you require of me, for my opinions arc by no
means in accord with the petitioners' ; so far from it, I
consider the Poor-law to be a most salutary measure
called for by urgent necessity, to rescue the honest la-
bourers from the state of dependence and moral degra-
dation of spirit to which the miserable working of the
old Poor-law had reduced them, and at the same time
to preserve the security of property and the peace of
society. It was enacted by the conjoint wisdom of
our ablest statesmen, whose sole object, I am con•
fident, was the welfare of the people, and whose public
and private characters fully warrant that belief'. The
best security against oppression is the publicity
that attends all our proceedings under the pre-
sent law, which did not exist under the old.
'That some cases of hardship may occur, no man can

the ills that human nature is liable to, from unavoidable

ANNUAL DIVISION OF PROFITS.

UNIVERSAI4 LIFE ASSURANCE SO-
CIETY, 1, King William-street, London.

Established 1834.
Empowered by Act of Parliament.
One-fifth of the ascertained profits of the five preceding
years is divided between the policy-holders and shareholders ;
three-fourths to the former, and one-fourth to the latter. The
remainin.; four-fifths are set apart to enter into the average of
the succ,ding years, and thus to provide against unforeseen
coritinge.cies.
The f -st division of Profits took place on the 13th of May,
1840, when a reduction of 60 per cent. was declared on the
annual premiums of all those polieies entitled to participation.
Policies effected before the Second Wednesday in May will
entitle the holders to participate in the profits twelve months
earlier than those effected at a subsequent period.

LA W INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF BAiVKRUTCY, APRIL 13.
RESIGNATION OF ANOTHER OFFICIAL ASSIGNEE.
It transpired in the course of the day, that Mr. James
Clark, another of the official assignees, has withdrawn
himself. The reason assigned is, that he has sustained
losses by a suit in Chancery, which have subjected him
to an attachment. He has consequently resigned his ap-
pointment. As far as at present can be ascertained, his
defalcation is only about 7,600/. spread over 200 or 300
estates. Yesterday one of the estates in which he was
official assignee being before the Court, a good deal of
surprise was occasioned by his non-appearance, which was
however at last cleared up by the receipt of a letter, ad-
dressed by him to Sir C. F. Williams, tendering his re-
signation. It is further stated that Mr. Clark has within
the last two or three weeks paid moneys which he had
received in his official capacity into the Bank of England,
to the extent of 8,0001., and there remains a balance of
999/. Is. 4d. in his private banker's 'hands. In the defi-
ciencies here stated a corresponding allowance must be
made for the commission he is entitled to receive for the
many estates he has had under management, and which
have not yet been brought to an audit ; so that the whole
affair seems to bo of no general importance.

WILKINSON'S ANTI- CORROSION
PAINT.
REMOVED from 63, Upper Thames-street, to

54, WATLING-STREET, near Queen-street, Cheapside.
J. R. WILKINSON particularly recommends his Paint to
the Nobility, Gentry, and the Public, wbo wish to paint their
houses of Roman cement, stucco, or brick walls, as a preven-
tive \to damp or sea spray in exposed situations; it will not
blister or peel off as common paint. On tiling, to represent
slating, iron hurdles, Nofs, conservatories, hot-houses, fences,
farm, or any out-buildings, it will last four times as long as
lommon paint. It is so simple in its use, that any labourer
can lay it on. To ship-owners for their decks, bottoms of ves-
sels, &c., it will be shown, as well as to the public, to be supe-
rior to any paint in use, by testimonials of its lasting fourteen
years on wood and houses, twenty years on iron (see the South-
wark-bridge). The public are particularly guarded in giving
their orders for Wilkinson's Anti-Corrosion Paint, that no
other colour may be imposed upon them for his. A liberal
allowance to the trade.

THE EPPING HUNT.

The days of Epping's sporting are no more—Epping
sausages arid butter have succeede in its place. The chase
is " going, going"—all but " gone !" Year after year its
decline has been too perceptible. Many a hand has been
stretched out to save it—many a pair of buckskins stretched
on to aid it—still it falls into disrepute, and unless some
mighty huuter before the field stands forth to prop its reeling
honours, its fate is sealed and its doom is fixed for ever. The
world was led to think tbat yesterday was to to the first or
the restoration, and preparations were talked of which glad-
dened the old hearts, and spoke music to the young. A
noble stag was reserved for the occasion, aril a pack of
fresh and well-bred stag hounds, like Nimrod's of-010,
were said to be near the ground. Patronage of high
order was ireiauated ; but all the world was deceived,
and the bright anticipations it_ had formed ended in mor-
tification and despair. Before the appointed hour for
the hunt it was a pleasant occupation to fix one's
station on the crown of the hill above Woodford
Wells, and to watch the arrival of the various parties
that came to be actors or spectators in the day's proceed-
ings ; to mark the green-bonghed waggons of the lion-
des folk, who knew or cared nothing about either
horses, riders, or owners ; who simply became spectators
to please themselves, and because they had always.gone
to the Epping Hunt before. While the throng was
collecting on the hill, the stag and the dogs were pay-
ing a round of visits to all the public-houses in the
neighbourhood, in compliance with a good old custom,
by which money was put into the pockets of every de-
serving person ; and the stag and the dogs, familiarizsd
to the company for whose pleasure they were to be exhi-
bited on that, and perhaps on future occasions. They
were shown at Saaresbrook, at Wanstead, and at Wood-
ford, till the sportsmen or, the hill became impatient of
delay. At length, however, the word was given, and
the victim, with all his finery of ribands, was released
from the cart, and the rush of the crowd having startled
him into something like speed, all the horsemen gal-
loped as hard as their poor hacks would go in his train,
without waiting for the hounds being laid on. Next
came about ten couple of dogs; with the huntsman
and his party, and for some minutes, until they 'were
lost in the Forest, were to be seen, the stag
hunted by a crowd of cockney horsemen, the dogs
hunting the cockneys, and the redcoats in the rear trying
to get the hounds clear of these savages on the scent of
their game. This did not take place without some I:tile
damage being done, and dismounted gentlemen were to
be seen crawling out of the fern, and seeking their horses,
which were homeward-bound. The stag sustained his
good character, and, 'after nearly an hour's running, in
which he distanced all the dogs and all the horsemen, he
finally bade them good bye, and took refuge in his old
haunts in the ancient forest, from which it will requite a
better pack than on Monday followed to dislodge him.
