IRISH

There are few subjects, abstractedly consider-
ed, of more importance to the well-being of Ireland, than that
to which we would now direct the attention of our readers—
namely the proposed reduction, and speedy abolition of the
Irish Fishery Bounties. There arc few countries whose shores
afford superior advantages to the Fisherman, nor is there
any which presents more strongly to its Government claims
for the protection and the encouragement of its superabun-
dant and wretched population, than Ireland. The 'Act by
which these Nunties were first granted was passed so lately
as the Sessions of 1849 and 1820; and from its enactment
the Irish Government seemed to augur results the most
favourable. What, since that period, can have arisen to pro-
duce even a contemplation of their reduction or abolition we
cannot conceive. That, in their results, they have fully equalled
the hopes of.the then administration ; that, since their enact-
ment,
a spirit of enterprise has arisen among the populous
inhabitants% on our coasts, and consequent extension of our ,
Irish fisheries; that the quantity and quality of ii,di cured '
has, in increase, surpassed the hope of the first
_pro.
jectors, cannot, for a moment, be doubted, for the official
reports of the Commissioners, annual), laid before Par-
liament, prove that they have not only kept pace with, but
outstripped the most sanguine expectations entertained with
regard to them. 'What motive, then,. we would-again ask, can
induen the Government to contemplate their reduction ? Ire-
land is at the present moment awfully convulsed perhaps on the
eve of a general rebellion—would it then be politic to throw
into the ranks of Field Marshal Rock a mass of its male
population so numerous as those inhabiting our coasts—
attd such, inevitably, must be the case if those industrious'
' individuals are deprived of the means of earning an honest
livelihood, if the protection of Government is withdrawn from ,
their praiseworthy and hazardous exertions, if this invaluable
nursery of Britons best protectors, the seamen, is abolished, for
without the fostering hand- of Government Irish Fisheries can .
never compete with those of the Dutch, English, or Scotch.—
The Irish Fisheries have by the bounty of Ministers crept into'
existence, they have acquired strength, why crush them ere their
arrival at maturity? Upon this subject we hays much to say,and
we would earnesly suggest to our cotemporaries, whatever their
political bias, to join with us in averting the intended evil. We
have lately made inquiries at Bush, at Sicerries, and at Bal- •
briggan, a mere moiety of She parties interested, yet by Cie
proposition lately made-for the reduction, on a coast of hut a
tew miles in extent, some thousands of fishermen would be
deprived of the means of existence, anti the sums of money
advanced by them, upon the faith of the Government, in fitting
up their vessels, &c. actually lost to them for ever. This is a
matter of-n-,ore serious importance to the well-being of this un-
fortunate country, than might, at first view, be imagined.—
(Dublin Antidote, April 24.)

FORTUNE TEr.r.txo.—A vagrant gipsy fortune-
teller was apprehendedllist Saturday, on the complaint of a cre-
dulous girl from Ashburton, who had pursued her across the
country to obtain justice for a fraud. The girl had consulted
the sybil in her profession. The latter, finding, Miss Credulous,
was possessed ot seven pounds in cash, caused her to produce
it. Of this cash a potent charm was to be formed. Pretend-
ing to wrap it up in a handkerchief, she re-delivered the pack-
age after many a muttered charm over it, to the folly girl, with
an injunction to lay it under her pillow; and an assurance thaz
it would inspire her with dreams prophetic of her fate. Thus
far all went smoothly ; but the prophetess had not departed
many hours, before the girl's faith yielded to her curiosity.—
She opened the mystic parcel, and found her seven pounds re-
duced to a solitary halfpenny. The girl pursued, and overtook
her swindler at 11xeter, but too late to recover her money.— 1
DevonshL-c Freeholder.)

The misrepresentations which have been made
of the state of Colonial Slavery have hrought an
odium upon the Planters which they do not de-
! serve. Admitting that there have been, and may
still ,bv, Men Who abt.ie their power,' and are
guilty of wanton cruelty, yet they are very few,
and the General Body of. Colonial Proprietors
are more liberal, and, indeed, know that it is
their interest to render; thi,ir slaves com-
fortable. We' therefore extract with pleasure
the folllowing passage- from .4 Mr. 11,itiewn.L'i
PICTURESQUE TOUR OF JAMAICA," which we
confidently recommend to the attention of
our Readers as ri _Work 'abounding w ith va-
luable information, us well as with graphical
beatilles,'und which is the more interesting at
the present moment, as it tends to remove the.
prejudices which 14'anatieism has excited, and to
avert time horrors which Fanaticism seems- to be
anxiously labouring to produce :---
"The original intention of the author of the ' Picturcsquo
Tour of Jamaica,' was to have embodied in the:general history
of the island, which will form the last number of that work, all
the information he possessed --or the situation of the negro pO:
pulation ; hut the particular circumstances of the times induce
him to anticipate that design, by stating thus early a few facts

. . -
respecting that class. .
" As slaves they arc subject to be sold ; but here much mis-
representation has been forced upon the British public : large
purchases of negroes, unless with the estate upon which they
are settled, and which would be useless without them, seldom
take place, except what aretalled jobbing gangs, which may

sometimes, though rarely, amount to from 20 to 25 ; the only
transfers which take plaCe are of domestic or tradesmen negroes,
and no man would buy a slave who did not previously agree to
live with him. He would be little better than a madman who
did so, as the slave would to a certainty run- away; for while
the purchaser requires a pol character with the negro, the lat-

ter is equally alive to obtain a knowledge of the habits and dis-
position of the person who may be inclined to purchase him.

While the author was on the 3lontpelier estates, Mr. THO EAS
the resident carpenter, had ten negroes, and intending to leave
Jamaica, he told them to find themselves a master, and if they
could place themselves comfortably, he would arrange their

price. After some time they came to him and informed him

......
they had found a master, Dr. PIERCE, of Belle Vue, with
whom Mr. TIIOMAS afterwards concluded the bargain. They
had previously been with Dr. PIERCE, had arranged their
provision grounds, clothing, days of rest, and every particular
of their allowances.

" With regard to their comforts, it is to be remarked that
nearly the whole of the markets of Jamaica are supplied with
every species of vegetables and fruit by the overplus of the ne-
groes' produce, by which traffic they acquire considerable
riches. ..On Holland estate, in St. Thomas in the East; the
property of G. W. Tar Lott, Esq., M.l'., the -negroes keep
a boat, Willa trades regularly between That pia& and Kings-
ton with the surplus, and these grumble as much at the low,
price of yams and plantains, as an English farmer at the fall
of corn.

" Riding in that neighbourhood at. Christmas, the author
' met a negro driving a mule heavily laden ; this man was head
cattle-man in Bachelor's Hall Penn, belonging to C. ARCE-
DECKNE, Esq. an appendage to his fine estate of Golden
Grove. had been at Mount Bay for his Christmas stock,
and had purchased a cask of "wine, a ham, and many other
luxuries, which, withltis poultry ()revery description, of which
he had abundance, and the estate allowance of fresh beef, would
enable pun to keep open house for three clays for all his ac-
quaintance. This tnan, being an expert cattle doctor, had fre-
quently leave of absence, and at his return, at the lapse of a
fortniiht, would-bring home a very considerable stun of money.
Tltis is an iYi'clulgence granted very generally to expert and well
disposed ttegroes on the principal grazing farms ; but even those
apparently the least capable may accumulate large sums._
Being on a visit lit the neighbourhood of Arcadia estate, in
TrelawnY, the author was-told that an old woman hail brought
the attorney a large sum of money, to be sent to the proprietor
in England, as her free gift. Though he neither doubted the
possibility nor the credit of the story, he was nevertheless will-
ing to have it from•the best authority ; and being at Beilfield,
the residence of irm. Esq. attorney to Arcadia es-
tate, lie made enquiries of him. -Mr- pIiLIER directed the
bdok of Arcadia estate to be brought, anti pointed, to the follow-
ing entry :

" Aug. 2, 1820.—This Sum, received of an old Owe negro-
woman, named MARTIAI to be transmitte.d to England for the
benefit of her young master :-..._
•" In Dollars - . - _ 73
" In Macaronees . - - 40
" In Ten-pences . - - 20
" Three Doubloons • _ - . 16
" Small Change • - - - 2—X1.50
" Mr. MILLER remonstrated with berupon her wish to send
so large a SUM from her family, but she only replied that she had
enough left for them and to bury herself; how much more She
might have had was never inquired into. The occasion of this
donation was the report which had reached her that the estate
was to be sold, and imagining that a portion of her savings
might be of use to her owner, she thus generously offered them.
Now this was an old imported negress, and it proves incon-
testibly-t*o facts : First, that she must have been amply sup-
plied with every comfort of life to have been able to sell so
much provision (the only mode she had of acquiring money ;)
and secondly, she must have been well treated, or she would
not have made so affecting a return of gratitude. It is useless
to niultiply cases of the riches of negroes ; they are known, not
unfrequently, to lend large sums of money to the whites upon
interest, and the author has not the slightest hesitation in
placing them far above our own labouring population in the
scale of positive natural enjoyments. To these comforts which
the negro already possesses, it would indeed be most gratifying
to humanity to- superadd the inestimable blessing of freedom,
with the capacity to enjoy and improve it: but it is much to he
feared that this latter is incompatible with any idea of re-
taining the Colony as a Property, which remark might, by
strong reasons, be -but too 'clearly proved. The author has'
thought it right to put then few facts together. lie has only
to add, that during a residence of eighteen months on the islapd
during which dme he visited every parish, remaining on some
estates for one day only (a time too short to change any system
of severity an overseer might have. adopted) on others for two
months, a period during which no deception could be kept up ;
and he can confidently aver that he never witnessed an infliction
of a cruel or unmanly punishment."

Sir ITARCOURT LEEi, the resolute Champion
for the Protestant Faith and the indefatigable
foe of Popery, •has written a long letter, which
appears in the Dublin Antidote, from which we
have extracted the following passage :—" At all
events I have the proud satisfaction of knowing,
that I have excited aConstitutional spirit through-
out the Empire, .that neither any future KING
or his Ministers could stem the torrent of, if I
conceived it to be my duty, from the imminence
of the danger, to rouse the Empire in defence of
their liberties and their religion. Fifteen minutes
spent in writing an address, and a couple of hun-
dred pounds in circulating it, would dispose of
Popery and Patriots, with Cabinets and Chapels
in a very short time, or I am much mistaken.—
Instead of the centemptible--, then, dis-
countenancing proselytism, let them vote me half
the sum they lavish upon the Maynooth Monkery
of treason and blasphemy, to support conforming
Priests from the Romish communion, and to
rescue many of theSe poor men from the mad
houses, where they -are at this hour to my know-
ledge confined, until shall sanc-
tion a Popish Inquisition ; and I will expel the
POPE altogether from Ireland—l p!edge myself.
to this."

ERTHW 'CB: V. .1 E NS.
Mr. llottN„c begged to call his Lordship's
attrn-
tion to the above case, which, %vas one of vt•ry
considerable importance, not only to the parties
concerned, but to others. There were private
circumstances in this- family that he need not
now publicly state, which rendered it of the
utmost consequence that his Lordship's judgment
should be made known as early_ as possible.
Mr. d'4 ETHERELL sulnnitted, that before this
was done it might be necessary for his Lord-
ship to be put in possession of the whole of the
case, "and probably the consequence would be,
that his Lordship would be induced to send it to
another place.

Mr. ifouNE hoped his Lordship would do no
such thing.

Mr. WETHERELL said, that when the Cause
was sent to the Court of King's Bench, the
Judges there had passed over the most important'
part of the inquiry. The personality there had
been considered the same as the reality.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said, that when ,the
•case•catne before him he hail thought it his.-doty
to enter more largely into the views of the case
than had been taken of it, and for this pur-
pose he had drawn the attention of Coun-
sel to the question of leasehold as - well
as freehold property. lie was certainly ex-
tremely disappointed. on reading the printed
evidence of the hearing in the Court of King's
Bench. However, as he had been mh.takett in
his object in sending it to the Court below, he
should not now send it back again ; but he at the
same time felt- it quite. unnecessary to trouble
Counsel in re-arguing the merits of it until they
had heard what his Lordship had to say on it,
which he would do on Friday.

VICE-CIIANCELLORS' COURT-(T r HIS JAY.)
BRA ysTocK. AND OTHERS V. SIR TDOS. STEPNEY,

SIR WM. MANSELL AND OTHERS,

Mr. HART moved the Court for an.
Order, di»
"recting Mr. Price, of. Glamorganshire, Soli-
citor, to place forthwith, in the Master's
Office, all the deeds, papers, &c. relative
to the estates ❑amed in the above mention-
ed cause. Mr. Price was the: surviving part-
ner of Robert Nelson. Thomas, the Solicitor
to Sir Wm. Mansell, and who now conceived
that he had a lien on the 'Deeds as Solicitor to
the Administrators of Mr. Thomas, to whom a
sum of 7001. was due for costs and pecu-
niary advances. The-trust bad been originally
made for the purpose of. raising 10,0001.
on the property, and there still remained
4,0001. miraised, and which, unless the papers
were placed as prayed for, could not be obtain-
ed. He (Mr. Hart) understood there was no
objection on the part of Mr.. Price► to any
order the Court might make, his only wish
being to act in such a way that he might not.
ipcur.dny loss himself.

VICE-CILINCELLOR.—YOU want these deeds
and papers to execute the trust ?

111 r. HART.—Yes, my Lord.
VICE-CIIANcELLon.-1 think a qualified order
will answer the justness of the rale; h-t theta
be placed in the Alaster's Office fur a certain
time.
COURT OF KING'S BENCH—(Tuts Dar).
COOK v. WOODIN.

.• _
The plaintiff in this case brought his action
against the defendant to abate a nuisance.—lt
appeared from the evidence that the plaintiff
held a house on lease in George-street, Portman-
square, and carried on the business of a green-
grocer. The defendant also occupied premises
adjacent, where he had erected an hospital or in-
firmary for sick horses, which occasioned a great
nuisance, and the smell from the .hospital of the
animals was of that disagreeable description
that the lodgers of the plaintiff had given
him notice to quit the premises, the same
being hurtful to their constitution., and totally
uninhabitable ; but, on the landlord informing
them that an action was pending to abate the
nuisance, they were willing to remain if that was
accomplished. On the defendant taking a lease
of the premises, the agreement proved that he
was not to carry on any sort of business, by the
alterations he might make, to annoy his neigh-
biin'rs with a nuisance.

The CommoN SEIMEANT, for the defendant,
intimated he had no objection to the case going
to a reference. This being acceeded to on the
other side, a verdict was taken for the plaintiff,
damages 5001., subject to a reference.

Tilt KING V. THE PARISH OF ST. MARY-LE-BONE.
This was an indictment. against the parish for
not keeping in repair a road leading .along the
north outside boundary of the Regent's Park.—
The road in question had been formed under the
direction of the Crown, on whose lands it was si-
tuate. It appeared that the road hail been model
with gravel only. For the defence it was con-
tended, that this was not sufficient material, and
that the road having never been properly made, ,
the parish were not bound to keep it in repair.,
Several surveyors spoke of the road as having
never been properly made.—Verdict for de.
fendants.

Juno,m ENT.—In the Insolvent Debtors' Court,
John Holland Goddard, a young man of fashion.
able exterior, came up to claim his discharge.
The insolvent originally was opposed by Mr.
F ORES, a wine-merchant, with whom, under a
false representation, he contracted a debt
to a considerable amount, saying at the time
he had received an order from his friends
in the country for wine, and if he could
recommend some he should supply it, and
Insolvent /was to pay on a remittance from
the country ; the goods were accordingly fur-
nished, and in a few days after the wine was'
disposed of to a person in town. Mr. Fores
never heard of the insolvent until he received a
notice of his intention to take the benefit of the
Act.—The Court, under all the circumstances,
adjudged the insolvent to eight months' confine-
ment within the walls, for fraudulently cOntract•
ing a debt with his opposing creditor.

:LONDON,-
TUESDAY, 27, 1824.

Letters have been received this morning fro.
Leghorn and Genoa. They state that our Air
ping are not in any way molested by Algerifle
cruizers, in consequence of the strict blockade of
the Algerine coast, which is kept up by the Bri•
tish squadron. The letters do not contaiu AV'
political news.

In our preceding columns we !lave given co-
pious extracts from the foreign journals, which,
though of some interest, do not call for particular
remark. The quarrel which has taken pinco at
Cbarenton, between a body of English %rot kna•-"
and the inhabitants of the village, we hope
have at least one good effect, in dete:rrli.l

many of our artisans from at once violatimi
the laws, and injuring the best interests
of their own country, by entering into ti"
service of foreigners abroad- From the inaaeer
in which the subject is treated by the Cowie
Frangais, it appears that the quarrel originated
in a feeling of jealousy and envy of the English-
men, on the part of the French workmen of the
same class, and that that malignant feeling ill
generally entertained and manifested by the latter•
English artisans, therefore, who contemplate a
removal to France, cannot but be aware,
after what has already occurred, of the un-
pleasant and even dangerous predicament in
which they will place themselves by quitting
their own country ; for the spirit of hostility ma-
nifested towards them is of such a nature that it
can only be increased by the increasing numbers
of those who are viewed as unfair intruders into

`!'_gorne journals have spoken of an int'ervi::w of the Em-
Piror of Austria, the Emperor of Rusriv,,, and the King of
Pruftia at Prague, at which the affairs of the East will be con-
titertd in a spirit opposed to that of some other Cabinets.
"We have learnt nothing from our own correspondence that
would induce us to imagine that such a meeting is even contem-
Plated ; and, far from being diVided upon th 2 affairs of the
Last, the whole of the-Cheat Powers are at this moment per-
fordl agreed respeOting than, sad that in a spirit of peace and
conciliation."
Now, thiitvzh we regret that we yesterday ac-
oidentally omitted the- declaration of the Etoile
at to the concord and. Pacific spirit of all the
Great Powers, and as to the improbability of an
interriew taking place at Prague, yet we do
not attach the slightest credit to its allegations.
If the correspondence of the Etoile has riot fur-
bished it with any, intelligence respecting the in-
tetided Meeting, the information on the subject
given to other Journals seems to. have been suffi-
ciently explicit and precise, as one of our ex-
tracts from the Brussels Papers, in a preceding
cointnu, sufficiently proves. It is impossible that
aby one, after the juggle of the Cordon Sanitaire,
end after the iniquity of the invasion of Spain,
eau be deceived by French professions. We yen-
t!tre to "assert on our part, that, so far from
the. understanding amongst the Powers being
so full and so harmonious as the Etoile re-
Presents, the mission of General Count Guit.r.E.

Which have for some time past been carried

- 'lzents ; and that we are much mistaken indeed,
the approaching royal meeting at Prague
will not elicit such a spirit and character, and
• result in so complete a development of the
Maus of the Holy Alliance with respect to Greece
4ttcl Turkey, as will give the monied speculators
in this country abundant cause to lament their
own credulity and folly in placing any reliance
ost the friendly dispositions which the Conti-
nental Governments profess to entertain towards
This country.

CITY, Twelve o'Closk.—Consols opened at
1161-1, at which price they remain steady, without
itny fluctuation, and with scarcely any thing
doing. • For Money, they are 9611. I do not
hear of any Express having arrived from Paris
this morning. By private accounts received yester-
day from that Capital, it is expected that the dis-
enseion on the proposed reduction of the Rentes,
Wilt continue to Thursday.
MAIIKET.—The little business doing
gas morning, is chiefly in Mexican Scrip.

The removal of the LOGGAN•STONE in Corn-
wall has naturally excited the indignation of
every person who knew of its existence, and of
all who hear of this violation of one of the won-
derful productions of Nature. We heartily
thank our intelligent Correspondent, A. P., to
-whom we are indebted for many valuable com-
munications, for the letter on the subject, which
we have inserted with pleasure this day. The
men who accomplished this act of wanton bar.
la!rism must have been actuated by the same
spirit which induced ERATOSTRATUS to de-
stroy the Temple' of Ephesus, merely to
have his name remembered, and he, like his mis-
itievous exemplar, will have his name branded
with eternal infamy. But in point of mere hu-
loanity this act must expose him to contempt, for
It' poor family derived their subsistence from
101*.wIng the wonder thus destroyed to travellers.
It is not, however, to he doubled that the people
Cornwall, oho have been deprived of this cu.
riuus ornament of their county, will liberally
''.lltribute to the support of the sufferers.

ST. JAMES'S PALACE.

Yesterday several official personages particularly examined
the splendid improvements in St. James's Palace ; and the
new entrances, &c. attracted the notice of considerable num-
bers, who had not the means of gaining any view of the.bril-
liant interior. As the Drawing-room of Thursday excites so
much expectation, and as there is so much curiosity in the fa-
shionable world on the subject, it hardly requires to be added,
that there is an unpreccdcnted bustle amongst the Court dress-
makers, &c.
