HISTORY OF THE ENGLISH NOBILITY.
—The new and much enlarged edition of Mr.. BURKE'S
History of the Peers and Baronets of the United Kingdom,
which has at length appeared, contains upwards of 1,500
engravings of Arms, &e., which are for the first time in-
corporated with the text in a new and very improved man-
ner ; but the most remarkable and interesting embellish-
ment is a fine head of his present MAJESTY, from Sir
THOMAS LAWRENCE'S celebrated drawing, engraved, by
permission, expressly for this work.

The Navy Board and the Victualling Board
terminated their existence on Saturday, when the patents
by which they were constituted expired. In future, the
business appertaining to each of these establishments will
be transacted at the Admiralty, by which an immense
saving will accrue to the country. This desirable change
has been effected by his Majesty's present Government.

One of the complaints made by Mr. CROKEft
on the bringing up of the Reform Bill was, that the boun-
daries and constituency of Tamwortb have been enlarged.
This is Sir Rog PEEL'S own borough, and though
the Right Hon. Baronet has too much tact to put biro ell
forward to make the complaint, even the increase of his
own influence, it is clear, does cot please him

IMPORTANT TO WITNESSES.—The taxing
officers of the Court of King's Bench, Common Pleas, and
Exchequer, have agreed on the following scale of payment
to witnesses :—For travelling expenses per mile, one way,
from Is. to 75.; journeymen and labourer, per day, ss.
to 15s. ; tradesmen and farmers, 103. to 15s. ; auc-
tioneers and accountants, 10s. 6d, to a guinea; gentlemen,
bankers, merchants, &c., if in London, one guinea only ;
if at Assizes, on guinea per day; professional men, one
guinea to two guineas ; attorney's clerks, 15s. to a guinea ;
females, according to their station in life, ss. to 20s. For
these allowances witnesses are compelled to attend ; hut
the taxing officers have not said who is compelled to pay.
STATE OF CRIME IN BIRMINGHAM.—It
is a singular fact, that during the extraordinary excite
ment which has prevailed in this town ever since the in-
troduction of the Reform Bill into Parliament, but mote
especially since the late resignation of Lord GREY, there
has bee❑ less crime committed in this town, as evidenced
by the small quantity of cases brought before the magis-
trates, than has been known for many years past. Not-
withstanding the !Jousts have been on so many occasions
deserted, and the public streets crowded, scarcely any in•
stance of burglary, pickpocketing, or even the most trivial
disorder has taken place.—Birmingham Journal.

HEXHAM GLOVE TRADE.—The glove trade
of Ilexham, which is the stsple trade of the town, was
(luring part of the last winter very brisk ; and the manu
facturers having extensive orders on band, the workmen
availed themselves of the opportunity of effecting an ad-
vance in their wages, which was conceded for the tune
without hesitation. A few weeks after, orders were sud-
denly and entirely countermanded ; and then it was deter-
mined on the part of the masters to repeal the late advance
(which though not very considerable was quite uncalled
for) and to make the wages such as they bad been for
several years preceding. This proposition was rejected
by the workmen ; and the consequence was a strike,
which, after about three months' continuance, has just
ended in their submission to the terms of their employers.
It is to be regretted that a spirit of insubordination so ge-
nerally exists amongst the working &asses, even where no
wish exists on the part of the masters to do them the
slightest injustice. Is it possible that men should be so
misguided as to think, that the Reform Bill is to free
them from the obligation of discharging relative duties?—
Newcastle Chronicle.

We understand that a few days since, just as
a boat freighted with iron and other articles had turned
the sumit of the inclined plane, on her descent at Boonton
Falls, the chain broke, and the car being thus freed from
the restrain•s of machinery, descended to the foot of the
plane with great speed, giving the boat such a hasty plung,
into the water, that when she rase on the swell thus
created, it carried her over the tow-path at the bend of the
