SIR JONAH BARRINGTON'S MEMOIRS OF
IRELAND AND THE UNION.—" This remarkable work was
begun (and nearly finished), publishing in parts, a consi-
derable time ago; but the public mind being then occu-
pied with the prodigious events of a terrible war, it did
not, we presume, attract the notice to which it was and
is so justly entitled. Now, however, when the state of
Ireland occupies so much attention, and is, indeed, of
such paramount importance to the empire, it is an excel-
lent thought to complete these memoirs, and submit them
to the country. They contain matter of much moment ;
and, by unfolding the condition of the wretched country
of which they treat at a memorable crisis, exhibiting the
political springs by which its fate was wrought out, and
the actors in that period which changed its destiny, throw
a light over the past, not only of great historical value, but
possessed of the deepest interest as it regards the present
and the future."—Literary Gazette.
COLBLTRN'S MODERN NOVELISTS.—We
are requested to state, that the second monthly set (for
March) of this select Library of Modern Fiction, contains
Mr. Butwxa'scelebrated Novel of " Pelham," and that the
third set, to appear on the Ist of April, will comprise the
" Chelsea Pensioners," by the well-known author of the
" Subaltern." These choice works (lie copyrights of
which, being the exclusive property of Mr. COLBURN,
cannot appear in any other collection), are issued forth at
about one-third of the original price, and are, in fact,
cheaper than the " Waverley Novels," being handsomely
printed in post 13v0., and bound in morocco cloth, at only
4s. per volume.

In the parish of Ardleigh, Essex, a labour-
rate has been weed on by the inhabitants, as a means of
prompting employment and diminishing the poor-rate.
occupier if land assessed above the value of 51. is
aEvs-eeZd at the rate of 4.. in the pound for six weeks.
He is to ki-ep-an account of the labourers he employs for
that time, and the wages he pays, which must not exceed
10s. a week. If the wages pod amount to his assess-
ment, he is not called upon to pay ; but if not, he is to
pay the difference as his amount of poor-rate. The rate,
at 44. in the pound for six weeks, is calculated to he
equal to the payment of all the able-bodied labourers in
the parish fur that period. The resolutions to continue
in force for six months, and it is expected may produce
beneficial results..—.. Essex
