THE FATAL EFFECTS of FIRE is too
well known from daily experience, and the best means to
stop its progress at first breaking out is of the utmost importance
to individuals as well as to the public at large. For this purpose
J. READ has constructed MACHINES of various dimensions for
domestic and local purposes. They can be worked by one person,
and are suitable for all horticultural purposes ; they may be in-
creased in power to that of a fire-engine. The valvular action is so
arranged as not to get out of repair, and can be brought to act in one
minute. The principle of action may be applied to all kinds of
hydraulic machinery, from the stomach-pump to the ship's pump.

HERON'S CASTLE MONA HOTEL, DOUGLAS, ISLE

OF MAN.

GEORGE HERON, so many years Proprietor
of Portobello Hotel, Dublin, takes leave, respectfully, to
acquaint the Nobility, Gentry, and Public generally, that he has
taken that truly magnificent and spacious Establishment, Castle
Mona, formerly the residence of his Grace the late Duke of Athol,
which he will open on the sth of May, and he feels assured, from
his long experience and general knowledge of Hotel keeping, he
will be found to give perfect satisfaction. The situation of the
Castle is the most delightful that can be imagined, close to one of
the finest sea beaches in the world, which renders the Hotel parti-
cularly desirable as a watering-place. The pleasure-grounds contain
twenty acres, laid out with the utmost taste and elegance. The
house is most comfortably and elegantly fitted up in every depart-
ment ; Hot, Cold Baths, and every other accomodation necessary
for such a splendid establishment and fashionable resort.
Castle Mona has been open as an Hotel three years, and during
that period (although containing upwards of eighty beds) has been
crowded to overflowing with families of the highest distinction.
G. 11. flatters himself the arrangements made in his Hotel will
give general satisfaction to those Noblemen, Gentlemen, and Fa-
milies, who may honour him with their patronage, as he shall be
most particular in the cleanliness and comfort with which it shall
be continued ; and trusts his attention, added to the unrivalled
beauties of Castle Mona, will obtains for him that distinguished
patronage which its delightful situation so justly merits.
G. H. can recommend his Wines and Spirits with the greatest
confidence, having selected them from one of the first houses.
• • Horses and Carriages of every description ; Lock-up Coach-
houses and excellent Stabling.
Sttam Packets, elegantly fitted up, ply every day dnring Sum-
mer from Liverpool and Glasgow, and twice a week from Dublin
to the Island.

" SKETCHES AND RECOLLECTION ," BY THE
AUTHOR OF " PAUL PRY."—The Libraries, we understand,
are actually besieged for this work.—" Here," says the Athe-
flaunt, " are two capital volumes—rich, racy, and full of hu.
mour. They will be delightful to our readers. Mr. Poole,
in his own peauliar vein, is the most finished writer of the day;
he one of the few who seem to have a becoming regard for
name and fame, and he works out his virgin fancies with as
much elaborate care as if he were the elder branch of the 13a-
rings. His sketches of character are often inimitable; ti ey
are portraits from the life, and yet so broad and general in their
characteristics that every reader will be prepared to.swear to
the eyes, nose, and mouth of a friend or acquaintance.' Disk
Ferret; for instance—the late Mr. Tardy, Sir Harry High.
flyer, are all "gentlemen well known about town."

THE HARE.—The hares at Amesbury, and many
other parts of Salisbury plain, have acquired a distinguished
character for speed and perseverance ; and although it may
appear extraordinary, •from the apparent great length of stride
in the greyhound, yet it is an incontrovertible fact that many
of these hares live ran completely away from a brace of su-
perior grey hounds without being once turned. I have re-
peatedly seen a bare put up before greyhounds, which seemed
as if she could not get out of their way ; the dogs have
turned her repeatedly, and have stuck at her, when in the
course of a few seconds, coming to the complete use of her
powers of progressive motion, she has sprung away from her
pursuers, the distance gradually increasing between her and
them, till the latter have been completely run out of sight,
and that too on the plain. Sir W. Scott says of the hare of
Balchristy, " She usually gave the amusement of three or four
turns as soon as she was up, and then stretched away"—and
so on. And if a leveret be compelled to turn at the com-
mencement of the run, she is very soon killed ; but when an
old hare is constrained to resort to the same manoeuvre, it may
be regarded as a sign of a strong hare; she has become some-
what cramped from her sitting position for some hours, and
does not, on being put up instantly, acquit e the perfect ex-
ercise of her extraordinary powe:s, and is hence under the
necessity of adopting t1:-.e system of twisting and turning till
she feels be-.-siif capable of going completely away. —The
Sportsman.

" THE BLOATED BUFFOON."

Some sing of the Queen, and some sing of the King,
Some of Courtiers and Courts, and all that sort of thing,
And some, like O'Rourke, of the Man in the Moon,
But I'll sing to the praise of the Bloated Buffoon.
He's the Solon of statesmen, the Falstaff of wits,
As even in candor admits,

He's the pride of the Park—of the Club—the Saloon—
For the wag of all wags is the Bloated Buffoon.
Hook and Hood are first-rate at extorting a laugh,
But the one is a donkey, the other a calf,
And the Marquis himself but a silly gossoon
Compared with that Wonder, the Bloated Buffoon.

The instant he makes his first bow at the door,
The party is sure to go off in a roar,
Each cheek swells with laughter, just like a balloon,
So resistlessly droll is the Bloated Buffoon 1

When he writes, his verse beats even Blackmore's and Derrick's,
When he smiles, all the ladies drop down in hysterics,
When he puns, you would swear that an Indian monsoon
Was shouting in praise of the Bloated Buffoon.
Irresistible wag 1 all at B—k—s's agree
That Grimaldi and Liston are nothing to thee,
And that, take the whole season from Easter to June,
They've no treat like the jokes of the Bloated Buffoon.
Then long may those jokes, like the almond-tree, thrive,
To keep the old glories of Folly alive
And long—but enough, I must finish my tune—
So hip, hip, hurrah, for the Bloated Buffoon 1

THE LITERARY UNION.

Williams, Charles Street, Soho.
fi„:rilis Magazine has reached a third Number, and judging
ineWril the specimens already before the public, we are in-
thd to believe that its greatest circulation will be among
h: Members of the Literary Clubs, who write for it. We
known authors who took credit o themselves for never
to...'lng any works but their own ; a tnd the public was so
o.ll4siderate as to leave them the undivided honour of such
the.lllPlaYment. Now we half suspect, that the " Literary
4411°n" boasts of some contributors of this stamp. Most

THE APPROACHING COMET.

Friday evening, in a lecture at the Royal Institution,
on the path of Haley's comet, Dr. Lardner took occasion
to contradict a paragraph which has been extensively cir-
lated in the public journals, stating that a letter has
been received from Sir John Herschell, announcing
that the comet, having altered its course, would not
be visible, and to which he scarcely considered it ne-
cessary to give a contradiction. He observed, that Sir
John Herschell knows nothing more of the disturbing'
causes which would influence its return than any other
astronomer in Europe, and that the statement attri-
buted to him was pure fiction. The only circumstances
which can prevent its making its appearance at the
period stated are, that there may be existing be-
and the orbit of Herschell some other planet
ith which it may have come in contact, so as
to cause it to alter its direction, or that
it may have come into juxta position with another
comet in the realms of space, and that their combined
attraction may have caused them mutually to vary their
course. Mr. Lubbock has calculated that it will make
its appearance on the 31st of October ; M. Damoi-
seau s calculation makes it the sth of November; and
Pontecaulet the Bth or 14th of November. On the
10th of November it will probably be at its nearest
distance to the earth, and will then most likely be visi-
ble amongst the three last stars of the Great Bear
both after sunset and before sunrise. Whether it
will be visible or not will depend upon circum-
stances over which astronomers can have no con-
trol, because they. cannot predict the exact case
in which its situation may be. Tt is now probably
about the orbit of Saturn. The only difficulty pre-
sented in the calculation arises from our not know-
ing exactly the mass of the planet Herschell, and
in proportion as that is above what is computed, so
will there necessarily be an error in the period of com-
putation. The number of comets known within the
solar system is between 500 and 600, whilst of these
the paths of 137 have been closely examined and de-
scribed. Of the above, 30 are known within the
orbit of Mercury, although this is probably not one
half of what actually exist within that space. Taking
the number, however, as 30, and computing the quan-
tity existing in a relative ratio between the estimated
differences of a sphere, the diameter of the orbit of
Mercury, and that of Herschell, it will give the total
number of 3,529,407 within the limits of the solar
system, and as the numbers above assigned within the
limits of the orbit of Mercury is probably not half of
what circulates there, the total number in the planetary
system may possibly be upwards of 7,000,000.

GUILDHALL.

Yesterday a labouring man, named George Williams,
was brought up in the custody of Brand, the Marshalman,
charged with unlawfully appropriating to his own use a
201. note, which had been accidentally dropped in the street.
Brand stated the nature of the case. On Thursday
se'nnight the son of a gentleman, named Haslope, lost a
201. note in the street. This, it appeared, was picked up
by the prisoner's wife, and the prisoner exchanged it at a
Mr. Harris's, at Sparrow-corner. Here he received a 101.
note, which had also been traced to the prisoner. He was,
therefore, apprehended ; and Mr. Haslope, having re-
covered 151. in cash, and obtained the clothes purchased
with the rest of the money, was willing, if the Magistrate
thought fit to look over the prisoner's misconduct.

Mr. Alderman ANSLEY asked Brand if he was sure the
lad lost the note, and that it was not stolen from him ?
Brand replied he knew it was lost.

Mr. Alderman ANSLEY told the prisoner he was indebted
to Mr. Haslope for forbearing to prosecute him. For the
sake of his character, he ought not to have thought of
appropriating the note to his own use, without endeavour-
ing to find the owner by advertising it. He should now
discharge him.

NAPOLEON GALLERY. Plxr I.

These are a collection of engravings, illustrative of the
Life and Times of the late Emperor of France, from all the
most celebrated paintings that have been produced in that
country during the last forty years. They are merely in
outline, though full of spirit and meaning, and to each is
affixed a slight explanatory sketch. When completed, the
work will form a suitable accompaniment to Scott's Life of
Napoleon.

of a British'steam navigation between the extreme west
of the island and the United States of America. He

clearly proves that the advantages of such a line of
communication with the New World would not only
place the Irish people on a level, in point of wealth
and industry, with their fellow-subjects in England and
Scotland, but also enable this kingdom to enter into
a successful competition with the whole trading world,
notwithstanding our immense national debt,and the heavy
expellees attendant on our form of Government. From
the author's conclusions respecting the effects a Poor
Law in Ireland, and the sound policy of encouraging
emigration, we entirely dissent. Besides, his own
good sense ought to have satisfied him of the imprac-
ticability of the means which he recommends for ex-
patriating any portion of the Irish population. Our
navy will never consent to be employed as a transport
fleet.
In conclusion, we are bound in justice to state, that
the pamphlet on England, Ireland, and America is—
taken all in all—one of the most sensible that has ap-
peared this season. That we do not wholly concur in
opinion with the writer on every subject, is evident
from our remarks upon it ; but at the same time we
cordially recommend it to the perusal of the more re-
flecting among the people of the United Kingdom.

Mr. Parker's agents engaged nearly the whole of the
post horses in the county, which prevented a great num-
ber of Lord John Russell's voters from coming up in suffi-
cient time for the first day's poll. This is the old Tory
trick, but although the voters did not arrive at the different
polling places before the close of the first day's poll, they will

ALSOP V. HOPE.

This was a bill filed by the administrators of an intestate,
who died, leaving a small real estate of thirty-two acres of
land, mortgaged for 5001., and about 501. in money. The
plaintiffs were creditors of the intestate for about 601., and,
upon his death, application was made to his widow for
payment ; accompanied by a demand that she should take
out letters of administration. This being refused, and the
501. having been paid away in rent and taxes, the plaintiffs
themselves administered, and subsequently filed a bill
against Mrs. Hope and her son, the heir of the small real
estate of her late husband. To this bill Mrs. Hope was
unable to put in appearance from poverty, and consequently
attachment issued, and she was thrown into jail, where she
remained thirteen weeks. At length an arrangement was
made, by which Mrs. Hope was to be liberated on her
giving two promissory notes for the 50/., and the money
which she had expended. The plaintiffs at the same time
agreed to stay all proceedings in the suit until the son
should come of age, the management of whose property
they took upon themselves. On the son's coming of age,
the plaintiff's demands not being satisfied, they proceeded
against Mrs. Hope on the two promissory notes, and, suc-
ceeding, threw her into a gaol a second time, from which
she was released by taking the benefit of the Insolvent
Debtors' Act. Under these circumstances the suit origi-
nally commenced was proceeded with, and was now before
the Court.

Mr. PEMBERTON appeared for the plaintiffs.
Mr. BICKERSTETH appeared for the defendants. The
Learned Counsel on both sides agreed that no relief could
be had on the suit as against Mrs. Hope, as the heir-at-
law, and his Honour reserved his judgment until he looked
through the pleadings in the case

COMMON SENSE.—The following letter appears in
the Londonderry Journal :—The title of Esquire having
become so common, I wish to relinquish it. Jacks of all
trades being now Esquires ; in fact, the title is nothing more
than a stable groom to a Lord; I therefore request you will
give a corner, in your useful paper, to say, that, from this date,
I will not take any letters out of the Post-office, but those
directed thus :—" Mr. Robert Cary, Tunalague, Carndonagh."

REVOLTING BARBARITY.--Committed to the
county jail of Kerry under the warrant of Thomas Ponsonby,
Esq., Catherine Harrington, charged on the oath of George
Burson, with having, on the evening of the 21st instant, bu-
ried her child alive, which caused death. On the evening of
Tuesday last, the unfortunate woman above mentioned brought
a female infant to the church-yard of Kilflynn, and laid it by
the side of a wall, while she went to a neighbouring field
where some people were at work planting potatoes, and
requested the loan of a spade to dig a grave for a little
child. The man to whom she applied asked her whe-
ther she had any one to assist her, and on her answer-
ing in the negative, he gave the spade to his son (a
little boy) with directions to dig the grave; it was
done accordingly, and when the woman took up the
child from the side of the wall, it screamed, upon which the
boy, in astonishment, said, " Sure the child is not dead ?" The
mother answered, " It is the same thing, it soon will I" and
having laid it in the grave, covered it up with earth and heavy
stones. The boy, frightened, ran away and told the circum-
stance to his father, who immediately hastened to the church-
yard, and on his approach, saw the woman still employed in
covering up the grave. The man instantly disinterred the poor
child, which was found quite dead, though but a few minutes
in its cold prison. We understand the only excuse this
wretched woman offers for her savage and unnatural conduct,
is, " that the child was ricketty and sickly, and that she wanted
to get rid of it l"—Cork Herald.

POOR LAWS.

Mr. O'CONNELL proposed theappointment of a Com-
mittee of 11 to prepare a petition to Parliament for the
protection of the poor of the country, and calling upon the
Legislature to adopt some system by which the desolate
can find relief and the distressed be no longer left in want.
His object was to compel the landlords to make pro-
vision for tenants improperly evicted. He also suggested
that there should be a legal tribunal to regulate the price
of land, in order to prevent extortion by landlords.
After some observations by Mr. J. D. MULLEN, the mo—
tion was agreed to.
London, England, 1835-05-05

Home Secretary, will be doubtless too happy to
single it out, from amongst the mass presented by
the wealth, and talent, and respectability of the country
of an entirely opposite nature, for his Majesty's spe:
cial notice and approbation. The Common. Council-
men were not at all pleased with their reception last
time, and without any very large gift of prophecy,
we may predict that, to use a common phrase, their
room will be considered much more desirable than
their company, by all parties, at the present juncture.
This is a question clepelidi,i,z, on the Lord
Mayor's firmness. The granting a meeting, and ap-
proving of what that meeting does (which any man
must who accompanies them to present the result of
their deliberations) are two different things, and we
would recommend this difference to his Lordship's
consideration.--Morning Post.

ENUINE EFFERVESCENT LEAMING--
r TON SALTS.—This portable and convenient preparation
is found by chemical analysis to contain all the medicinal and che-
mical properties of the water as drank at the fountain heal, and is
so combined as to reproduce carbonic acid by the simple addition of
water. These Salts are mild in their operation, and are as agree-
able to the palate as a common saline draught. They are found
particularly useful in cases of indigestion, bilious affections, general
debility, &c. (for which the waters of Leamington are so justly
celebrated); they also correct acidity, give tone to the stomach,
and carry off all those indigestible matters which occasion head-
ache, sickness, loss of appetite, &e.
Invalids and others at a distance, who have received benefit
from the water, will now, by the convenient form of this prepara-
tion, be enabled to possess the advantage of the Leamington water
in the nearest state of perfection.
One tea-spoonful of the Salts are equal to a tumbler of the Spa
water.
Prepared only by S. Stanley and Co., Chemists, Leamington.
Sold also by W. Sutton and Co. (sole agents), Bow Church; and
retail by all respectable Medicine-venders in town and country, in
bottles, at 2s. 6d. and 4s. each.

TITHES.

Mr. WILKES presented a petition from a person resident
in Gray's Inn Lane, complaining that he had been proceeded
against for nine years' tithes, when he had only resided in the
house four years, and praying for an alteration in the present
tithe-law. The Hon. Member announced his intention of in-
troducing a Bill next session to set this matter at rest.
Captain PECHELL supported the prayer of the petition,
but was sorry that he had protracted his intention of bringing
in a Bill till next Session. If no one else would do so, he
(Captain Pechell) would very shortly give notice of the early
introducing a short Bill to settle the matter.
Mr. SINCL AIR considered that this House was likely to
become a Star Chamber for the persecution of the Clergy.—
(Laughter.) He protested against these ex-parte complaints
against Clergymen arraigning them at the bar of Parliament,
without allowing them any opportunity to rebut them.
Captain PECHELL thought such observations were very
unfair after what had taken place in this House upon the sub-
ject of tithes, and especially so in regard to himself, for he
stated to the House when he presented the petition that he had
given seven days clear notice to the clergyman against whom
the complaint was made.
Mr. SINCLAIR—I was not alluding to you.

Captain PECHELL—Yott compared the proceedings to
those of the Star-Chamber. I never made an unfounded com-
plaint against any clergyman, and I defy the Hon. Member to
say that I have.—( Hear.)
Mr. WILKS— If he had made a personal complaint, or
had gone through the history of that large parish since the
present incumbent had come into possession, and related all
that might have been said against the clergyman, he might have
been liable to the charge o the Hon. Member, but he had
not done so. The Hon. Member explained.
Mr. I. D hoped that same short Bill, declaratory
of the law upon tithes, would be soon before the House.
Captain CURTEIS instanced a case in which while the
Tithe Collector got 6/. per acre, the Landlord got only 20.. s

and the Farmer not a sixpence. Such a state of things called
for the prompt interference of Government.
BONDED WAREHOUSES.

Captain PECHEL-L was instructed to ask whether it was
intended to interfere with the present arrangements respecting
bonded warehouses?

Mr. P. THOMPSON—As the subject was soon to be
brought under the c'onsideration of the House, he thought it
better, and he was sure the Hon. and Gallant Member would
agree with him, to reserve till then any information that was
required on the subject.
Mr. HUME thought it would save great trouble if the
Orders in Council and Minutes of the Treasury were laid on
the table.

(THIS EVENING.)

HOUSE OF LORDS.

Lord DENMAN took his seat on the Woolsack at Five o'Clock.

The Duke of RICHMOND gave notice that on Monday
next he should move the second reading of the Bill.relative to
Charitable Loan Societies in England and Wales.
PRISON DISCIPLINE.

The Noble DUKE then laid upon the-table the third Report
of the Select Committee appointed to inquire into the disci.
pline of the several Prisons in England and Wales, which was
.ordered to be printed..
Mr. Alderman WOOD and others from the House of Com-
mons, brought up the Worcester Infirmary Lease Bill, the Argus
Life Insurance Company Bill, and the Stretton Enclosure Bill,
with the Lords' amendments, to which the House of Commons
bad agreed. Also a Bill for consolidating the laws relative to
the recovery of small debts, to which the House of Commons
desired the concurrence of their Lordships.
The Small Debts' Recovery Bill was read a first time.
On the motion of the Duke of RICHMOND, their Lord-
ships then adjourned.

Conviction that any change of the duties which would
limit the supply of timber from the colonies, or raise the cost,
-would operate most injuriously. They stated that, notwith-
standing the assertion that the Colonial timber was inferior
in quality to that imported from the Baltic, they were ready to
prove that the I;ed pine was alike in quality in all countries, and
the yellow pine was only to be got in the colonies. The petition
was most numerously and respectably signed ; and he moved
that it be referred to the Select Committee then sitting on the
subject.
