EXPENSES OF THE CHURCH.—At a Meet-
ing of the rate-payers at Boston, Lim oloshire, on Thurs-
day, a proposition was made to levy ninepence in the
pound to defray the expenses of the church, such as new
bell-frames, 2001., slcramen'al wine, &c. The proposi-
tion was unanimously rejected, and one fir sixpence in the
pound adopted, so that the churchwardens who had paid
the bills were minus a considerable sum out of pocket,
and nothing left them to pay the current expenses of the
c n el.

During the late gales the quantity of sand
blown from Perran-porth, up the valley tow•irds Bollingey
was almost unprecedented. We are informA that the
appearance for many hours, on Tuesday se'nnight, was
that of a continued cloud of sand extending nearly a mile.
The direction of the river was some time since altered, so
as to make it approach the Porth in nearly a direct line ;
the former serpentine course had the effect of checking the
sand ; and, if this course he not restored, there is little
doubt that the land in the valley will be completely
covered with sand.—Falmouth Cornubian.

We are glad to have it in our power to an-
nounce to the public, that Ewart was yesterday liberated
from gaol. We understand his solicitor fould out some
fl.w in the diligence, at the instance of the cl.rgy, and on
Wednesday last intimated that Ewart held them liable for
all the damages and injuries he had sustained by their
cruel and vindictive proceedings, and at the same time
demanded instant liberation of the prisoner, without pay-
ment of the claim. Mr. Inglis, it seems, found it pru-
dent to comply with this reasonable request, and Ewart,
after suffering three weeks' confinement, under circum-
stances of peculiar hardship and distress, was on Thursday
restored to his family and his home. As this extraordi-
nary

Ewart, however, will long be remembered by the citizens
of Edinburgh.—Scotsman.

" MANIFESTATIONS OF THE SPIRIT."—
Not long ago, the manifestations of the Spirit formed the
subject of conversation in a company, where one of die
converts to that absurd doctrine was present, who de-
fended the propriety of the Trinity College Kirk exhibi-
tions with great warmth, and pri.ece•!ed, as usual, to
" nail't wi' Scripture." In reply to some derisive obser-
vations on the practice of interrupting the preacher in ti,e
midst of his discourses with their jargon, the said convert
turned up the 14th chapter of Ist Corinthians, at the 23d
verse, and read as follows:_" If any man speak in an
unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at most by three,
and that by course ; and let one interrupt I" Interrupt !
cried all in astonishment; and on turning to the passage,
their butter acquaintance with the English lane nage found
it to be interpret! and not interrupt. Of course, the

Commercial intelligence was received yester-
day from the Russian capital to the 30th ult. The
advises state that, in addition to the precautions that had
been adopted by the Russian authorities to ascertain the
object of all foreigners in visiting the Russian empire,
measures were also to be carried into execution to prevent
any person from carrying letters. In mercantile transac-
tions a great deal of activity prevailed at the Russian
capital. The purchases of tallow on English account had
been so extensive, that the price bad improved to 139
rubles per pond, which is an advance of about 15 rubles
since the season opened. The total supply this sear
would be nearly 170,000 casks, all of which had been
shipped off with the, exception of about 50,000 casks.
The Exchange on London was a shade above 10i. Since
the season opened, there had arrived at St. Petersburgh
915 vessels, of which 468 were British, 51 American,
and 396 foreign vessels. Of the British vessels 333 had
sailed with cargoes for ports of this country. The accounts
state that Admiral Greig, who has the command of the
Russian ships of war in the Black Sea, had been nomi-
nated by the Emperor a Counsellor of the Empire. The
Admiral is an Englishman, but has long been in the ser-
vice of Russia.

thrown
in to the greatest distress by the death of Mr. Cartledge
Hirst, son of that gentleman, under the following heart-
rending circumstances :—On Thursday afternoon Mr.
C. Hirst was shooting pigeons on the bank of the pool of
water adjoining his father's mill. With a desire to
recover his game, he ventured to float a large plank and
got upon it; and in endeavouring to reach the birds lost
his balance, and thus was precipitated into the water.
One John Kitchen, a faithful servant in the employment
of Mr. Hirst, said, " Well, but I can swim, and will ven•
ture my life for him," and instantly plunged into the
water. When he had made to the place where young
Mr. Hi rst was last observed to go down be was suddenly
seized by the leg, and also taken under water, previously
calling out, " He is drowning me ;" such was the intense
grasp with which he was held by the expiring youth.
The dam was about four yards in depth ; and both of
them have met a watery grave. Their bodies were after-
wards found. The young gentleman was about 18 years
of age, and highly beloved by all who had the pleasure of
his acquaintance. The poor man Kitchen, who so d.evo •
tedly used his utmost efforts to rescue young Mr. Hirst, has
left a widow and five children.—Leeds Intelligences.
Mn. CARLYLE.—This gentleman has now
set himself up as a regular preacher, and may be seen
holding forth nightly to a motley assemblage in front of
the County Hall. He is generally accompanied by two
demure-looking gentlemen, who stand on each side lis-
tening with great devoutness. At first a young man,
of the name of ANomtsorr, attended on him, and gave
manifestations. We happened to be present during one
of these exhibitions, and can safely say that a more
painful spectacle we never witnessed. Mr. CARLYLE,
who generally delivers his sentiments -in a calm though
impassioned
.and_ emphatic manner, and appears. ti have
a clear conception as well as a sincere conviction of
what he utters, makes long pauses io his discourse : during
one of these this young man suddenly broke out, crying--
" Away with your trash —your rubbish—your stuff about
Gon's mercy," till his raving grew so blasphemous
that his auditory loudly hissed him. During tl.e pa-
roxysm his voice screamed, his eyes glared, and the
sweat broke on his forehead with the intensity of his
gesticulation; a fitter subject for a lunatic asylum could
not be imagined. He, however, spent himself in a short
time. Mr. CARLYLE has since dispensed with this
frantic follower—a sign Of his being not altogether des-
titute of reason and decency. We hope it indicates a
return to his right senses and the pure doctrines his
enthusiasm has mystified and perverted.—Edinburgh
Evening Post.
LOOK ON THIS PICTURE AND ON THAT.—
Baron D'Haussez in his " Great Britain in 1833," gives
the following contrast between the French and English
clergyman :—" A priest in France is a simple man,
without family, without credit, of little influence, poorly
clad in black, who supplies by an inward piety, a great
disinterestedness, and a fervent charity, those exterior
advantages Which are wanting to him. He is not to be
met in the salons, because there his qualities are not neces-
sary, and he would find himself misplaced too often
sprung from the lower classes of society, he opposes, at
times, an indiscreet pride to the lowness of his origin.
The mediocrity of his fortune leaves him no other resource
:Or doing good than to importune those who have wealth
to succour those who have nothing. An English clergs'-
man is a man of distinguished birth, surrounded by a
numerous family, provided with a rich benefice, living in
luxury, participating in every pleasure, in all the
