A cavern has recently been discovered near
East Emma place, Stonehome, which has crewed muci.
interest ; the mouth is about fair feet over, and those who
have curiosity enouwt to descend, have been lowered
down by being suspended by a rope fastened round their
body. The cavern increases in size towards ti,e bottom.
and at the largest place is about 20 feet by 15 feet; 27
feet from the mouth is a bed of water, which has been
found to be 42 feet deep. A pump is about to be flue
in the cavern, with a view to have a supply of water in
cases of fire.—Devonport Telegraph.

ulted—the inha,itants of the parish, who were expected
o be henefi ed by the ministry of the pastor, had ako been
passed over. Whether those who had made such presen-
tttions in the present dsy were the real friends of the
Church or not, be doubted. Under those c.rctonstanees
he trusted that the House would grant the prayer of the
SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. I petition.

TITHES.
Mr. E. BULLER presented a petition from Swint rton,
the county of Stafford, praying for an alteration in the
ithe laws ; and the petition contained complaints of the
extreme rigour with which the tithes had been collected
since the appointment of the present incumbent. The
lion. Member, in presenting the petition, stated, that
immediately upon the petition being sent to him, he had
written to the Rector, stating the substance of rho
charges made against him, and requesting to know if any
~f his family was prepared to answer the statements
it con ained. Subsequently he forwarded the rector a
copy of the petition, but he had received no communica-
ion from him. It was not for him to say wh tier the
statetcents of the petitioners were founded on fact or not,
as he knew nothing upon the subject. The ground on
which be felt justified in presenting the petition, was the
eigh respectability to his knowledge of the petitioners.
tie entirely concurred with the prayer of the petition,
which he considered to have been rendered necessity in
conioquence of the unfortunate disputes which he was
afraid would continually arise between rectors and tlhiir
parishioners, as long as the present tithe laws were in
exis:ence.
Sir OSWALD MOSLEY with great alacrity acceded
to the request that bad been forwarded to him to support
the petition. He hoped that the Noble L ,rd who
brought in a measure for the commutation of tithes during
he last session would not relax in his laudable exertions to
improve the tithe laws, but would take the earliest opp
tunity of bringing forward further measures upon the sub.
ject. He was as anxious as any man that in any alters-
,ion of the tithe laws ample provision should be made for
he clergy in some other way, but he was convinced,
until some alterations were made, those animosities which
xisted between the clergy and their parishioners would
oever be put an end to.
There being no further petitions to be presented, the
SPEAKER left the Chair at One o'clock.

MEMOIRS OF MARSHAL NEY.—If the
spirit of Napoleon can witness what is passing on earth,
it will doubtless rejoice in the volumes before us, for the
-kill and service which secured the achievements of the
French army were never more fully displayed. Every
British officer, from the subaltern to the general, will
doubtless peruse the graphic details of the most momentous
battles in which men were ever engaged, as derailed by Ney
imself, and commented on by his colleagues, while the valu-
able maps and plans with which then are illustrated will
render their elucidation more clear and entertaining. The
iaortrait of Marshal Ney, the son of a village cooper on the
Rhine, is well executed ; it evinces that firmness of pur-
trise and unostentatious dignity for which be was so re-
markable.—Naval and Military Gazette.
We understand t hat Sir J. Hobhouse has left
Basildon-park for London, for the purpose of standing for
the borough of Marylebone, vacant by the intended eleva-
tion of Sir W. Herne to the Bench. A vacancy is also
expected in Middlesex by the elevation of G. Byng, Esq.,
to the Peeral.e.—Berkshire Chronicle.

As a number of children, belonging to the
Sabbath School, Bardney, were, during the dinner hour
on Sunday List, playing at ball on the village wren, on the
',all being thrown up a hawk pounced upon, a ivd, and
flew off with it, to the great a4rm of the children, who,
terrified at the supposed character of the depredator, de-
clared they would never again break the Sabbath.--

LIVES OF THE ENGLISH PIRATES, HIGH-,
TMEN, AND ROBBERS, BY CHARLES WHITEHEAD.
—With a fidelity that stamps the originality of his sohj,•et,
Whitehead opens his into-riving account of English
.ighwi,4 men with Robin Hood, that merry monarch of the
i,00.1 green wood, whose adventures, obscurely b,au,iful,
,re claimed alike by fact and fiction. Fr•m Rohin Flood
oi Barrington the pickpocket, the descent is gradual and
hill of incidents and interest. We open with an illustra-
tion of the reign of Richard the First and close with a type
.f the times of George the Third ; vice and villany during
the lapse of centuties may have extend.d themselves, hut
hey ate plainly less commanding in their operations. Our
I wetathers robbed trarik'y and with a daring courage
hat bespoke heroism ; while we degenerate in the spirit
and practice of evil, steal in mean privacy and blush to
tiscover that the proceeding was ever m 'de a boa-t
o . We agree with Mr. Whitehead, that his work cannot
ail to conduce to the service of morality. We go farther,
tnd miiutain that the nation ought to be much happier
with the evidence which these volumes supply of tie great
improvement which the state of society 1.4* been
undergoing for centuries past—Sunday Herald.

GENUINE INSTANCE OF BLUNDERING.-
At one of our late fairs, a rich grasier, being in his cups,
made a boast that he and three other pot companions h.d
contrive! to swallow sixteen bottles 01 port between them
at one sitting. " Pray, Sir," said a gentleman wl o WA;
present, will you have the goodness to 'Ave us the rialtos
of the three drunkards who partook of this cheer?"
" That I will," says be, " with the greatest pleasure :
There was Tom Mathews—that's one; the two Grogans
—that's two; myself—that's three; and—(alter a long
pause)—why, on my conscience there were foul of

Mathews—that's three; and—hy this bottle I fret the
name of the other ; but I know there were four of us any
how."
