Critical Approbations of this Valuable Work,
These,Travels constitute a.Work or much greater Im-
portance and Value than are attributable to the, generality of
Publications under similar Titles. They are written in the
mannerof Arthur Young's Travels in France, and furnish the
Reader with a vast aVlass of Geographical, Commercial, Po-
litical, and Economical Information, the result of atteniiie
remark, and judicious Inquiry."—New Annual RegiSter.
" Our present Traveller. ha s united great attention to no
common ab►lities. His Descriptions are, ellar and•explicit,
and his Observations in general are judicious. He had the
best means of IntOrmation. Through the whole of the Tour,
Agriculture, and its various operations and instruments, were
observed with particular attention.• His Description of the
Northern and. Easter❑ Regions of the United States°, may be
considered as .a valuable and faithful account of a Country
hitherto little known.''.- Critical Review.. • .

" The useful Information whieli this Work contains, is
considerable. The Duke has certainly no been an idle Trit.
yeller, and his Agricultural Remarks will greatly assist-the
Reader, in acquiring corred ideas of the Country. The
Translator appears to be welt acquainted with the American
Si.!tes ; and his Notes frequently increase theinforination,
correct the errors-of. the original."—Monthly Review. •

We hare often had occaSitin to review and -tti comment.
the compositions of this female Author, whose principles are.
sound, .and whose general sty le of Writing is eorrel and ele.
Rant. The Work before tis •addressed--to -her Son, the
same youth; as we understand, who is the sullied of. the
eighth Sonnet in the first volume of those Pons. which she
1.-ablished in 1499, and an.. which We bestowed the tribute'ef
ueserved applause. These volumes may be considered as a
valuable addition to the library of youth, in the dangerous
intervaLbetwecti childhood and adolescence. The Dpetrines
they teach are orthodox, temperate, uniform, and liberal ;
and the manners they recommend, are what every judicious '
Parent would wish her Son toadopt.
" This Work appears to MS so highly valuable, that we feel
ourselves called upon by the duty we owe so, the British
Youth, to give it a very extensive examination.
" We so heartily-concur in her Opinions, every subject
which she treats appears to us so important, and so highly en. •
titled to the attentive cons.ctcratioff of youth, that we feel
uolibtful trout what part to tnak- our xt rads.

IMPERIeIL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF PEERS,
FRIDAY, DEC. 10,

Cot:l4st'. were heard relative to the Scotch Appeal,
George Lord Kinnaird v. Matthewson, at considerable
length, viz. Messrs. ADAM and MOORE on the part of the
Appellant, and Mr. Rom ILLy on behalf of the Respondent.
After which their Lordships deferred the further hearing till
Monday.
Earl SPENCER acquainted their Lordships that he should
en Monday offer a few observations relative to the Malt and
Mum Duty Bill.
The. Bills on the Table, generally Private ones, were for-
warded each a stage. The Small Notes Bill was read a third
time, passed, and a Message sent to acquaint the Commons
therewith.

Mr. ALEXANDER' accom• allied by several Members
brought up from the Commons the Irish Militia Bill, as did
Mr. Bo aDow the Thirske Road Bill, both of which were
read a first time.

Adjourned till Monday.

ROUSE OF COMMONS,
FRIDAY', DEC. 10.

Mr. S. LEFEVRE said, he had the honour of
being returned for two places—for Bodmin in the
County of Cornwall, and for Reading in the
County of Berks, and that he had made his eledion
for Reading. Upon which a new Writ was ordered
tp be issued for the Borough of Bodmin.

The LORD MAYOR presented separate Petitions
from each of the City Prisons, namely, the Fleet,
Ludgate, the Foul try,:and Giltspur-street Compte:s,
on behalf of the Debtors confined therein, praying
general relief, which were ordered to be laid on
the Table.

_.._ ............ . .
• ,
The LORD MAYOR . also presented a Petition on
behalf of the Ship Owners in the Port of London,
complaining of the Tonnage Ad, &c.—Ordered to
be laid on the Table.

GENERAL PIiIPPS presented a similar Petition
on behalf of the Ship Owners of_ Scarborough.—
Ordered to be laid on the Table.

Mr. WILBERFORCE presented a Petition from
Bridlington, to the same effetl, which was ordered
to be laid on the Table. .

Mr. LANGMEAD also presented a Petition of a
similar kind, from the Ship Owners of the Port of
Plymouth.

Mr. BuanoN presented a Petition. to thelikeef-
fea from Sunderland, and observed, that when
this Subjea was last discussed in that House, he
tad foretold that such a 'Petition would be pre-
sented, which he now did, in obedience to the di.
redions of his Constituents.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
said, he perfeetly- recolletied the Observation Made
by the Hon. Gentleman. At the same time, he
must say, that he was sorry for the presenting the
Petition, but extremely glad it was presented by
that Hon. Gentleman, becauSe it was honourable to
the'County of Durham, [in allusion as we presume,
to the manner of the Hon. Gentleman's Eledion.]
Mr. BURDON said, he should merely state,
that in taking this adverse step to Government, it
was but to a single measure of that Right Hon. Gen-
tleman's Administration, and in the doing which,
he was folloWin.g the direaion of his Constituents,
to whom he was bound by every tie of attachment
as well as duty, and whoni• he should constantly
serve.' At the same time, begging to be under-
stood, as being- hirnself by no means hostile Co the
Administration of that Right Hon. Gentleman.;
The Petition was ordered to be laid upon the
Table.

Mr.. WILE ERFORcE presented a Petition on be-
half of certain Drhggists and Chymists of Sheffield,
complaining of the late Medicine Aft.—Ordered
to he laid on the Table;

Lord CASTLEREAGH reported at the Bar, that
Hi's Majesty had been waited upon with. the Ad-
dress of that House, of yesterday, when he had
been graciously pleased to declare, that he'would
give direfflons accordingly. •
Soon afterwards, the Papers, Accounts, and Pub-
lic Documents referred to in the Address, were
brought up, and laid upon the Table.
Captain. MARKHAM gave notice, that on Mon.
day, he.should move for leave to bring in a- Bill for
the appointment of •a Committee, to inquire into
certain Civil Abuses hi the Navy.

,T,he ATTO RN EY GENERAL moved for Leave to
bring in a Bill for facilitating and rendering more
easy, the Transportation of Felons. He adverted
to the Law as it at present stood, by Aft of Par_
liament, by which it was provided, that when Of-
fenders were ordered to be transported, a contras}
was entered into between Government and an in-
dividual who commanded the ship, by which they
were transported, and by which,
,such Contractor
had an interest in the set vice of such Felons. Up-
on this, the Contr;:dor was boun'i to enter into a
certain security, for taking such Felons to the
place of their destination. It had since been con_
sidered, that opportunities may occur for taking
such Felons in some of His Majesty's Own: ships,
and it could not be expettted, that an Officer who
had the command of a ship of His Majesty's could
enter into this Security, it being needless, he being
already under command—hut as the Law now stood,
the Learned Judges could, Consign the care.of such
Prisdnets only to such persons as shout 4 enter into
such security. Having stated this tole the sub-
jea of complaint, the House would easily see what
was likely to be the remedy ; and it %vbas no other, than
to empower those who may have the command of
His Majesty's ships, and who may have the charge
of such Prisoners, to take them without entering
into such security. He therefore moved for Leave
to bring in a Bill to facilitate and render more
easy the Transportation of Offenders.--Granted.
Mr. H. ADDINGTON moved for a New Writ for
the Borough of Wootton Basset, for the EleCtion
of a Nsw.Merriber in the room of General ST. JOHN,
who has accepted of the Chiltern Hundreds, which
was ordered to be issued accordingly.
The ATTORNEY GENERAL brought up the
for which Leave had just been given, relative to
the Transportation of Offenders, which was read a
first, and ordeied to be read a second time on
Monday. •

The Order of the. Day on
.the Navy Bills
was, on the Motion of iVir, VANgI7TAIOx deferred
01'1.Monday.
A. Message front the Lords acquainted the House,
that Their Lordships had agreed to the f!romissory-
,
foie sili, without any arnepdgtent,.

Mr. CORY moved to postpone the second read-
ing of the County of Dublin Baking Trade Bill, tilt,
Monday—Ordered.

Mr, ALEXANDER brought up the Report of the
Malt Duty, Bill. The amendments were read :and
agreed to, and the Bill ordered to be read a third
time on Monday, if ingrossed.
Mr. ALEXANDER also brought up the Report of
the Pension and Personal, Estate Duty Bill : the
amendments were read and agieed- to, and the Bill
ordered to be read a•third time on Monday, if in..
grossed. He likewise brought up the Report of the
Five Millions Exchequer Bills Bill, which went
through the same course of proceeding.
Mr. NEVILLE presented a. Petition on behalf of
H. N. OGLE, Esq. who had presented a Petition,
complaining of an undue Return for the Borough. of
Drogheda, setting forth, that on account of the ab-
sence from London, of the returned Member, and
not being able to find out any Agent of his in Lon.
don,. he had been unable to serve the Notice which
the Aft of Parliament required, of his entering into
the necessary Recognizance, for the purpose of pur-
suing his Petition ; that this being the last day for
doing so, his right to prosecute his Petition would
be lost, unless further • time were granted to give
such Notice, and praying that he might be allowed
time for that purpose.
After some discussion, in which Mr. NEVILLE,
Mr. BERNARD (as we understood), tilt CHANCEL:,
LOs of the EXCHEQUER, and Lord HAWKESZURY
took apart, and which related chiefly to the regu-
larity of the Proceedings of the House, twenty-one
days were granted to the Petitioner, for the purpose
required.
