A GENEALOGICAL AND 11.E.R4LD1C

HISTORY

OF THE COMMONERS OF GREAT BRITAIN AND
IRELAND. By JOHN BURKE, Esq.
The plan of this work is excellent, and could
not be better executed than we are sure it will
be by the author of the Dictionaries of the
Peerage and Baronetage. It is to be published
in parts, priority of insertion being given to
pedigrees that first reach the editor's hands, the
form of a Dictionary being out of the question
in the first instance, from the impossibility of all
at once getting the necessary particulars toge-
ther. The first part now before us contains the
genealogical history of about eighty gentlemen's
families, occupying 192 pages. That such a
work was wanted, every body will acknowledge,
for we are persuaded that the English, although
not willing that a man should have the offices of
the state bestowed upon him merely on account
of the merits of his ancestors, will not be dis-
posed to give up the amiable weakness, if, in the
eye of strict philosophy, weakness it be, which
makes men look to the virtuous and noble acts
of their forefathers with emulation as well as
pride. Of course we can form no opinion of the
correctness of the greater part of the family his-
tories here given, but take them upon the joint
credit of Mr. Burke, and the families themselves.
With respect to so much of the execution of
the work of which we are competent to form an
opinion, there is only one thing we have to re-
gret in it, which is, that the lines usually made
use of in heraldic engravings to denote the dif-
ferent colours and metals, are not had recourse
to; so that there is no check upon any misprint
in the blazoning of the arms. This would, we
know, throw the labour of comparing very mi-
nutely the engravings and the written descrip-
tion upon the editor, but when they did agree
the reader would know that he might rely
upon them. The little comparison of them that
is now required, has perhaps led to the overlook-
ing of one or two little mistakes, which the ne-
cessity of a more severe examination would have
detected. We mean such as describing a bor•
lure to be engrailed, when, upon turning to the
arms we have found it to be invected. These,
however, are trifles far counterbalanced by the
excellence of the plan of the work, and the merit
due to the enterprise of an undertaking which
cannot fail to carry with it great labour and
expense.

The POCKET DICTIONARY of the LAW of

ELECTIONS.
BY A PROFESSIONAL GENTLEMAN.

This work was published some two or three
years back, and, from its form, was found, we
believe, convenient for speedy reference. We
imagine, however, that it had no very extensive
sale, for a sufficient number of copies have
been left on hand to make the author or pub-
lisher think it worth while to print a new title
page (with no date to it), an appendix of a few
pages to introduce the new boroughs, and a leaf
of what is called a Synopsis of the Reform Bill.
We understand that some of our contemporaries,
whose wonderful powers enable them to judge
of the merit of a book by reading the title-page,
have praised this as a very a-propos publication.
If they had taken the trouble to read it, they
would not have deceived their readers, and led
them to purchase a " Dictionary," not worth a
sixpence, as far as it explains the present state of
the law of election. We do not know who the
" Professional Gentleman" may be, that has
thus attempted to impose an old book upon the
public as a new one ; but assuredly the trick is one
that will not admit of the slightest justification.

ILLUSTRATIONS of POLITICAL ECO-

NOMY. No. X

HOMES ABROAD, by HARRIET MARTINEAU.

This is another of the series of tales illustra-
trative of political economy, at the publication
of which we have already expressed our satisfac-
tion. The objects of the present number are to
show the advantages of encouraging emigration
in preference either to distributing money as
relief to the poor or spending it in home colo-
nization, and also to show that the system pur-
sued with regard to the convicts in Australia
neither benefits society at large nor reforms
offenders. With regard to the last point we
think Miss Martineau will find upon inquiry
that the evils of which she complains, do not pre-
vail to the extent they heretofore acknowledgedly
have done. The fate of a convict is by no means
so enviable as many used to think it, the disci-
pline having become so strict as to make those
who receive accounts of it any thing but desi-
rous of being transported. Her first objects
Miss Martineau must establish, beyond dispute,
with all who do not require proof that two and
two make four. She introduces a gentleman of
the name of Fellowes, as one of the short-
sighted but well-meaning people who have taken

it into their heads that forcing capital into a
channel which no one finds it for his private
interest to turn it into may be permanently bene-
ficial. The natural result of such an attempt and
the continued infatuation of its author are
thus told in the following passages :

" A hearty welcome being offered to the Kentish and
Surrey folks just arrived, they gave some account of
themselves. They had all suffered from want of demand
for their labour; an evil which had gone on to increase in
the face of the promises that had been made to them about
providing for all who were out of work on farms prepared
for their advantage alone. A young labourer from the
parish of A- stated that his father and mother and
their seven children had been located on such a farm by
Mr. Fellowes, with sixty other families; that it was diffi-
cult to provide for all the young people as they grew up,
and would become more so still when they came to have
families of their own, unless indeed they spent their whole
lives in getting food, and food only. Mr. Fe lowes was
now anxious to take in more paupers upon his farm, and
was unwilling, in order to make room fur them, to turn
out labourers upon the parish where there were already
too many ; and he had therefore advised the sons and
daughters of tiffs home-settlers to lose no opportunity of
getting well placed either in Canada or Australia. So,'
concluded the speaker, I moved off to make room for
two elderly folks, seeing, as Mr. Fellowes himself said,
that 1 can raise a better living with less toil
-here than

'ere, and be much sooner free; and so, here I am.'"
a .

" You will have heard that Mr. Fellowes finds his
well meant plans somewhat difficult to manage, from the
vast increase of claimants. I believe he still thinks that

if there were People's Farms enough, the relief tnight be
made effectual, though he cannot explain what is to be
done with so many delvers a hunured years hence, and
will not say whether we are all to become delvers and

spinners rather than a few of us cross the world to a more
fruitful land.' "

As we hope there are few of our readers who
do not read Miss Martineau's works, we'Shall
only make one more extract for the purpose of
pointing out the only fallacy, or, perhaps ,i-ve
ought to say, oversight in the tale before us. A

conversation is taking place between the hero
Frank Castle, and the clergyman of the parish
who advises him to emigrate :
" Frank saw at once that in sending over a young
couple, the parish sent over also all their descendants, be-
sides supplying a want in the colony abroad. After a few
moments' thought, he went on,—
" Surely, Sir, it would relieve the country of its over.
fulness at once, to send out a certain number of young
people every year, as they become marriageable, instead of
spending the same money in giving a passage to old people ?
." It would ; and the entire effect of emigration, as a
method of relief to the country at large, depends on the
selection of those who are to go. The number of persons
who become marriageable every year in this country is
now 800,000. If these were sent out, it is plain that the
country would be d-populated in the course of a single ge-
neration ; but if we sent out the same number of old per-
sons, it would snake a very small difference in the amount
of people at home ; and it would not be worth the colony's
while to receive those who would bring little labour and
no population. If, again, we sent out that number of
risen and boys to a colony where there are too few women
already, we should afford our,elves only a half relief, and
g.ve the colony nothing mere than the present labour of
these men and boys; whereas, by sending equal propor-
tions of men and women, we give the colony all their de•
scendants as well as themselves, and free ourselves from
the same amount of labour,—which we do not want.
" A much smaller number than 800,000 would be
enough then, Sir, to thin our population sufficiently? -
" Certainly. If, instead of sending out people of all
ages, we were to select those who become marriageable,
one-sixth of that number, or about 133,000 persons emi-
grating annually, would prevent our population► increas-
ing ; and this might be done at an expense not exceeding
a fourth of the sum annually raised for poor-rate, sending
half to America and half to Australia. This would be
well worth while, even if there were to be no repayment
of expenses ; which there might and ought to be from co-
lonies where labour is much wanted.' "

The error into which we imagine Miss Mar.
tineau to have fallen is involved in the proposi-
tion that the emigration of 133,000 persons an-
nually would prevent our population increasing.
Such is not the case. The population would
no more be prevented increasing by such an
operation than a similar number of additional
deaths per annum would prevent it increasing,
or any more than the expenditure of millions per
annum upon the poor, prevents the increase of
pauperism. The last circumstance is a premium
upon pauperism as the two former are upon
population. It seems paradoxical to say that
deaths are premiums for births; but such they are
in all countries where marriage is either morally
or physically restrained. The only natural im-
pediment to marriage taking place at the earliest
possible period of life is a deficiency of food,
and if food be annually provided for 133,000
additional persons, that number will soon spring
up to eat it, and the remainder of the popula-
tion will go on increasing just as they would
have done had no such addition of food taken
place, unless, indeed, at the same time that the
addition of food is made, the people are taught
to place a moral restraint upon themselves, and to
desire something more than a bare subsistence.
Emigration, therefore, is only justifiably encou-
raged at the expense, or partly at the expense,-of
the State when the object is to give a temporary
relief which will facilitate the adoption of mea-
sures of permanent improvement in the mass of
the population. It follows that the country
ought to take advantage of any extensive plans
of emigration being carried into effect, to abolish
both the poor and corn laws. Indeed, the last-
named laws ought to be abolished in the first
instance, as the increased means of employment
which would thus be produced, both for manu-
facturing and agricultural labourers, would mate-
rially diminish the amount of the emigration,
which, we fear, the fatal consequences resulting
from the ignorant recklessness both of the Eng-
lish and Irish peasantry, have rendered temporarily
necessary to a greater or lesser extent. We trust
we have mistaken Miss Martineau's meaning►,
and that she does not advocate a permanent
annual payment by the State to encourage emi-
gration, any more than she does a permanent
rate for the relief of the poor. We should not
have dwelt so much upon this point, did it not
involve a principle of so much importance, and
were not any mistake of a writer, in whose opi-
nions so much confidence is justly placed as in
those of this accomplished lady, likely to do
mischief in proportion to that confidence. We
take leave of " No. X., Homes Abroad," with an
anxious desire to see the appearance of Miss
Martineau's next work.

SUICIDE ON LONDON BRIDGE.--Yester-
day tuternoon about 3 o'clock, a man was observed to
ascend the parapet of Londim-bridge, and instentlY
throw himself over into the water, he disappeared for s
few seconds, and then arose upon the surface of the water,
the tide at the time being at the flood. JAS. GonreEl..
and RICHD. WELLS, two watermen, put off instantly to his
assistance, but before they could reach the spot, the un-
fortunate man sunk to rise no more. A leather travelling
cap belonging to the deceased was afterwards picked up,
but there were no marks in it to lead to a discovery as to
who the deceased was. Several boats were out during
the afternoon dragging for the body, which up to this
morning bad not been found. It is believed, that owing
to the tide turning almost immediately after the accident,
the body has been driven down the river a considerable
distance.

ROBBERY AND ATTEMPT AT MURDER.
(FURTHER PARTICULARS.)-00 Friday night the son
of Mr. Jot-ix HANCOX, of Tunley, in the parish of Bisley,
went out in the back premises to see that all was right
prior to going to bed. There he saw three men with their
faces disfigured, and he asked what they wanted. Instead
of replying, they immediately rushed towards him, and be
retreated to the house, but being closely pursued, the door
was forced open, and one of the men followed him into
the kitchen. Mr. HAticox, juts., was about to procure
his gun fur defence, when the sanguinary ruffian d's-
charged the contents of a horse pistol at his head, which
totally blinded him, and so dreadfully mutilated the whole
of his face, that he is not expected to recover. After thi'
the robber gave a loud whistle, when the two others came
in, one of whom stood sentry with a loaded pistol in his
left hand against the breast of Mr. HANcox, sen.,
while,
with a drawn cutlass in his right hand, he threatened 51";
EIANcox and family, (consisting of three
young irlb)
violently exclaiming that " if either of them dared to move,
death should be her portion." In the mean time two "'
the men went op stairs, and commenced ransackieff
drawers, &e. In so doing their candle went out, whenthey immediately called out " Silence below," and "
us snore light." One of them then came down stairs, awl
taking front his pocket a quantity of piper, he set it "°
fire and placed it in a blaze on the table, with which be
procured and lighted another candle, and returned 'if
stairs, where they took all the valuables they could fin(
The ruffian keeping sentry below then robbed Nlr.
cox, sen., of about 601. after which the villains madetheir escape. The greatest alarm prevails throughout the
neighbourhood, and every exertion has been made to sfr
orehend the perpetrators of these diabolical acts, t
hitherto, we are sorry to add, without effect. Mr. Hit..l",
cox, jun., who it is expected will Lill a victim to the
brutal assailants, was much respected, and the greste"s
sympathy is felt for his unhappy fate. A man is in cos.
tudy on suspicion.—. Cheltenham Chronicle,

FRENCH PAPERS.

(From Galignanes Messenger of Wednesday'.

PAais, Nov. 7.—A❑ officer who arrived yesterday at
Paris from Antwerp, states that eighty mortars are planted
in the town so as to throw shells into the Citadel, where
General Chasse has only forty.
The Phare of Antwerp says :—We have every reason
to believe, that in case of any attack upon the citadel, it
will be made by the French army alone, in order to de-
prive General Chasse of all motive for bombarding the
town. Nodrmonstrations will be made from this quarter,
hut if the Dutch troops should attempt to set fire to any
part of the town, then, and then only, will the Belgians
interfere and make use of the immense resources they have
at command, to avenge themselves of an act of which the
Dutch Government is perhaps alone capable."
The Handelsbladof Amsterdam contains details respecting
the health of the army in North Brabant, and adds, that on
the 30th ult., trials were made of the telegraphs attached
to the two brigades of that division, and in less than two
minutes, intelligence was conveyed by them to a distance
of upwards of six leagues. Thus, these telegraphs, placed
near elevated towers, may, in less than a minute, corn-
*unicate all the movements of an enemy.
The Swabian Mercury gives the following, under date
of Berlin, Oct. 28 :—" It is again asserted, that although
the Prussian Cabinet has consented to the armed inter-
vention of France and England in the questions between
Holland and Belgium, our troops on the Rhine are, never-
theless, being reinforced. The Con corps, in particular,
has received orders to hold itself in readiness to march. It
must not, however, be supposed that Prussia is about to
interfere; but it may be presumed that these reinforce-
ments are collected for the purpose of providing against
the non-observance of the conditions upon which the
acquiescence of Austria and Prussia has been granted."
Charles X. arrived at Prague on the 25th ult., and
on the same day the Duke de Firzjatnes arrived there also,
and dined with the Ex-King. On the 27th the Duchess
of Aneouleme reached the same town.

The 4th Electoral College of the D---.)rdogne is convoked
at Linde for the 30th inst., to elect a Deputy, in conse-
quence of the promotion of M. Valleton de Garrauhe to he
Colonel of the 38th regiment of infantry, and the 6th
College of the department of Finisterre is convoked at
Quimperle for December 1, to elect a Deputy in conse-
quence of the promotion of M. de Keratorial to be Colonel
of the 134th regiment of Infantry.
A general statement of the foreign commerce of France,

The King has commuted the sentence of hard labour,
passed by the Court of Assizes upon Geoffroy, 13Iondeau,
Hassenfraiz, Pourjet, and Laout, for the part they took in
the insurrection of the sth and 6th June, into imprison.
tent for the same terms; and the punishment of Lechevin
and Bregeon has been reduced from five to two years' jut.
prisonment.

On Sunday, at Brionne, a sumptuous entertainment, at
Which about 400 electors were present, was given to
Messrs. Dupont de I'Eure, Legendre, Dulongs, and
Bioche, Deputies for the Department of the Eure.
The Spectateur of Dijon states, that the colour of the
Cantonal Battalion of the National Guards bad always
been deposited with the Guards of Sainte Reine, that
place being the point of meeting of the battalion, and also
the residence of the commander. The National Guards
01 Bussple-Grand, who belong to the same battalion,
lately seized the colour, and carried it off; and, upon their
comrades of Sainte Reine applying for it, refused to give
it up. The Mayors interfered, to prevent a collision, and
lent an account of these proceedings to the Government,
by whose orders four companies of the 53d regiment of
the line were sent to Bussy to take the flig, and restore
hto Sainte Reine. The National Guards of Bussy-le-
Grand have been dissolved by a Royal ordinance, and, it
said, that the parish will have to pay the marching ex-
Penses of the troops of the line.
The Courrier de r Ain relates that, at the urgent de.
band of the officers of the 23d regiment of the line, in
garrison at Lyons, two officers have just been dismissed
front that corps as Carlists.
By a letter from Montpellier of the 31st ult. we learn
that the following is the accredited cause of the late asses-
ainatiOll of Dr. Delpech :—M. Demptos, after being
tured of the complaint for which be placed himself in the
hands of the Doctor, paid his addresses to a young lady of
Bordeaux, and demanded her in marriage of her parents,
who, however; refused their consent. This refusal he at-
tributed to indiscreet revelations of his physician, and re-
solved to revenge himself. It is also stated that some
Years agn he formed another project of marriage, which
be conceived was defeated by the ill offices of a notary,
and then committed some acts of violence upon the latter,
for which he was indicted and sentenced to imprisonment
for four years.
The Dunkirk Journal gives the following from Honds-
cbonte:—" A Magistrate of this canton being lately called
to affix seals upon the effects of a person who had recently
divd, was with his assistants making the usual exami-
nation of the apartments, when he came into a dark
roar of only a few feet square, and there found alive the
wife of the dec-aced, who had not been heard of for up-
%yards of 15 years, during which time she had been shut up

eFIRIT OF THE PARISIAN JOURNALS.
4e Journal des Debate considers, that of the two
4, es forming the Opposition, the Republicans and the
Waist ineonsequents, or seekers of the impossible

chimera called a Republican Monarchy, the former will
have the preponderance in regulating the Opposition
tactics of the Session; and that, therefore, the contest
will continue to be between the comp& rendu of the mi.
nority and the 13th March, or system of the majority.
Unless, therefore, the majority choose to become the
minority, the Ministry must, it contends, carry the Ad-
dress triumphantly.
Le National maintains that the Opposition will con-
tinue firm and compact, and that no part of it will go
over to M. Dupin, although it will gladly receive him and
his party if they will join the existing Opposition, and
frankly adhere to the compte rendu. It repels the idea
of any schism existing between the extreme gauche and
the party of Messrs Latfitte and Odillon Barrot.
Le Temps eulogises the Government for its commuta-
tion of the sentences of the insurgents of June, and calls
on it to continue a similar course, by relaxing the rigour
with which political offenders are treated in the prisons,
and particularly not to hesitate in allowing them to he
transferred to a Maison de Sante, when (as is the case
with several prisoners now in St. Pelagic), their state of I
health requires their removal.

La France Nouvelle says, that it c=ot attach any
credit to the note of the Russian Envoy to the Conference,
until it has more impartial authority for it than the Albion.
The mere f ict of the dissolution of the Conference, is, it
contends, perfectly natural, as its labours were at an end
the moment France and England undertook to carry its
resolutions into full effect.
Le Messager des Chambres considers that Russia will
not be satisfied with a silent disapproval, but will, either
by herself, or by Austria and Prussia, actively oppose the
proceedings of France and England against Holland.
Le Journal du Commerce argues that the treaty of
the 15th of November depended for its validity on the
ratifications; that the ratifications contained a proviso that
force should net be resorted to without the consent of all
the Powers; that such consent is refused ; that therefore the
ratifications, and, consequently, the treaty, are null and
void, and that the measures of France and England can-
not, therefore, be based upon that treaty. It adds, that
the real object of England in proposing the blockade of the
Dutch ports, is to induce France to sacrifice her own
maritime principles respecting blockades, and adopt those
of Great Britain, which she hopes to obtain, by having the
command of the expedition. As, however, the conse-
quences of the blockade must he laid down in the Conven-
tion, it calls on Government to lay that Convention before
the public ; adding, that if it sanctions any abandonment
of French principles, the Alinisters who Inane concluded it
are guilty of high treason.
