• The British Funds are exhibithik ad extraordinary elasticity,
and are, in the face of the deficiency of the Revenue for the last
Quarter, looking firm. This arises in a great measure from the
large amount of money in the market, and the increase which will
come into play by the payment of the dividends, as veil as the
little means of employing capital in the discounting of bills.—
Consols opened at sal for money, and 80A I, for November ;

SURVEY OF IRELAND.

TO THE EDITOR.
SIR-A correspondent having seen in' the papers a
statement of difficulties encountered by those engaged
on the Trigonometrical Survey of Ireland, through the
medium of your useful Paper, begs leave to ask those
whom it may 'Concern, why September was chosen for
commei icing observations,and the wliole ofso remarkably
fine and clear a summer as the last lost ? Is it not also
very desirable under the present wants of the country,
in all cases to separate the places and salaries of the
civil from the 'military department ? for if hereditary
placemen, or those connected with characters high in
office are appointed (as is the case) to employments
in the civil department with large salaries, and the
country in consequence is to be deprived of their mili-
tary services, surely in this time of distress the amount
of their military pay should cease ; as when they have
these appointments they are no longer called on mili-
tary duty, and their pay then becomes a complete
sinecure.

COMBS ABBEY.

This venerable mansion has not been the residence
of any branch of the Craven Family, since the funeral
of the late Earl, whose death occurred early in 1825,
in the Isle of Wight. His Lordship's remai►►s were
conveyed thence to Combe Abbey for interment ; and
on that occasion the tears of a numerous tenantry, kept
pace with those of the deeply-afflicted family.---A re-
newal of these testimonials of sensibility and sincere
sorrow are now fast approaching, as in the course of
the present week the amiable Countess will visit the
Abbey in company with her eldest son, the present
Earl, who has attained his 17th year : The Coun-
tess's daughter, who is never separated from her ma-
ternal care, will also he present. This proceeding
will be as quiet and unceremonious as possible ; and
if the young Earl should be met by Iris excellent
uncle, who is -the leading Trustee under the will of
the late Earl, and a few of the neighbouring Gentle-
men, those friends, will form the extent of the assem-
blage. The architectural additions which the late
Lord Craven had superintended for some years pre-
vious to his death, were immediately. after that event
ordered to be stopped, and they will not be resumed
during the Earl's minority ;---but they will he minute-
ly inspected and subject to grave consideration betbre
they are further advanced.

A professor of the fine arts, who recently visitedthe great gallery at Combe Abbey, assures us, that
the marble bust of the Princess Sophia, the highly-
revered source of the Brunswick Line, is, in all its
lineaments and features, a most striking likeness of
our late favourite Princess Charlotte. Its situation
is near the bust of the interesting Queen of Bohemia,
whotos aitLlsyinofother of Sophia, and who on the death of
the King, her husband, after long experiencing the
William Earl of Craven, at Combe

MISS ABLETT'S CASE.

In our Paper a day or two since, we gave the facts of
this singular case, with an insinuation (justified by a recent
notorious fabrication, palmed off as truth on a Morning
Paper, and transferred into our columns as such) that it
might probably be false. On further examination, how-
ever, we find that it is literally a fact, and hence, as a matter
of justice, we take the earliest opportunity of retracting
our former surmise.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MANSION-H OUSE. —( To DAY. )
A stock-broker, named Stewart, appeared to answer a charge
of obtaining money under false pretences from Mr. Stewart.—
Case dismiesed.

BOW-STREET--(Tails DAT. )
George Browns, a baker, e►as brought up on a charge of au
assault on Mr. West, a grocer, cud ordered to find bail.
Nothing of public interest occurred here this morning.

RiARYLEDONE.s(Tim DAY. )
James Brewer and William Hussphreys, two stout rough-
looking fellows, were accused of obstructing William Beattie, con-
stable, in the discharge of his duty,
Beattie stated, that he was last night called into the Champion
public house, Earl-street, to apprehend James Duxbury, who,
he was told, had stolen six silk handkerchiefs. No sooner, bow-
ever, had he entered the room, which was full of men like the
prisoners, and C'ypriana ;
than the prisoners came up and asked him
what he wanted. Upon his telling them, they threatened him,
and said he should not apprehend any person there, and then
struck him two or three times; upon which he went for assist-
ance, and got Webster, an officer, to aocompany him.
Webster said that when he went with Beattie to the room,
Humphreys met him at the door, collared him, and swore he
should not touch any person in that room, and during the squabble;
Duxbury made his escape.
The prisoners denied the whole charge, but were committed for
trial.

SMITHFIELD MARKET.—(Txts DAT.)

to navigation, and to the safety of our naval bulwark.
This great national benefit was effected by the mea-
sures planned by Dr. Trotter in 1795; when physician
to the fleet, under the command of the late Earl
Howe. The naval hospitals were all new modelled at
the same time by the same physician; but since the
scurvy' was subdued, these hospitals have been compa-
ratively empty. Our merchant ships have only to fol-
low the example of the Navy, in preventing scurvy
among the seamen, for of all diseases this is the most'
dreadful to seafaring people ; and unless the means of
relief are carried to sea, the consequences are incal-
culable. No leSs than 100,000 human lives are said
to have been saved during the late war, by the extinc-
tion of this malady._ Glasgote Courier.

read, but dogmatic to a fault. His style was terse but
elegant. His epithets were occasionally strained, but the
effect of his writing was forcible-,,,conclusive. He de-
lighted in satire;---his sarcastic irony was unsparingly
vehement and.pointedes—his tirade in print, resembled Mr.
Brougham's in the Senate. But his mind .was imbued
with kindly sentiments, and
:enriclned with storied beauty
from the best authors. Hii imagination was wilcl,lOriginal,
and romantic, still best pleased with indulging the tender
associations of his youth, while roaming amid the varied
and aublithe scenery of his native-Mountains. His feel-
ings were keenly alive to the beauties of composition, and
he delighted in dreams of public good, till his sensibility free:
quently ran away with his judgment. Tacitus was his fa-
vourite author, and Cowper his holiday recreation. He was
honoured withele-friendship of Mr. Brougham, Sir James
Mackintosh, the late Mr. Ricardo—.and he enjoyed;the con-
fidence of other perhaps equally worthy, though less dis-
tinguished individuals. The goodness of his heart knew
no bounds, his revenge no limit. Generous to proffision,
he took tits of prudence when economy was bank-
rupt. He was most eager to serve a.friendand more eager
to retaliate a supposed insult. The, impetuosity of his
passions frequently hurried him beyond the. line of decorum
—but his unruly temper was to blame, not his heart,
which overflowed With kindness, and melted in being able
to communicate to others a portion of that transporting
joy which mocked utterance. His precipitate temper often
defeated the best aim of his ardent ambition. But there
might be good reason for its acerbityer-one false step in
early life embittered his future destiny and destroyed the
hope Of comfortable or even respectable retirement, which,
to a Man of his sensibility, was worse than death. This
secret feeling preyed on his,mind, and often urged hits to
drown his sorrovhi with more, congenial spirits, but the
elevation frequently consequent on. this partiality for com-
pany occasioned him much grief when the excitement had
subsided. He is gone !--let., ma not scan too 'harshly the
failings of a man who might have..heen the first ornament
as he was the master spirit of whatever society he honoured
with :hit presence. Those who have.knowir him, will
bear testimony to the truth of this'feeble.delineation of his
charaCter; but perhaps the ben proof of its sincerity will
be foUnd in the circumstance that the writer of this.article,
though glowing with brotherly affection, has laboured under
the ban of his unaccountable displeasure for three years.
As it is, he sincerely laments in having to perform an act
of justice to the memory of a mini whom he; for a time,
so exclusively esteemed, and the generous qualities of
whole heart so transcendently eclipsed the common failings
of our nature. ' .

DOVER, SEPT. 8, 1826.

(PROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
• A continuance of the blowing tempestuous weather
has obliged the Stewards of the Dover Regatta again
to postpone it, to the .great disappointment of the
visitors, but in such weather no other plan could have
been pursued. •At the Assembly Rooms last night
there was a more crowded ball than has been seen in
Dover for years; and Batcheller's Rooms were also
Very well attended. The election of Mayor for this
town has taken place to-day, and George Stringer,
Esq. has been chosen by a considerable majority to fill
the office for the year ensuing.
The remains of the late Lord Gifford were removed
early this morning towards London, for interment to-
morrow in the Rolls Chapel.
London, England, 1826-09-09

absurd would it be thought if a builder were reprehended,
because for erecting a house he should charge ten thousand
pounds, without paying any attention to the explanation of
the total charge which the various items of his bill or his
contract would supply. And how ridiculous would it he
in any one to allege that one thousand pounds for paper-
hanging was enormous or unfair, without attending to the
nature, quality, and quantity of the paper consumed.
Now the attempt to present what is termed an Abstract
of my Bill, which is wholly free from even the explanation
which the Bill itself supplies, is ungenerous and ungentle-
manly. . Nor will the attempt deceive, those who reason
and reflect, but the majority of men know not how to rea-
son, and reflection is to them troublesome.
As to the other charges respecting the Welsh Iron Com-
pany, as far as I am concerned: I have already, in all the
London papa's, refuted them, either as inventions or as
gross exaggerations.
Third, as to the late Norfolk, ltc. Railway Company.
The observations respecting my connection with this Com-
pany are even more absurd than all the rest. In the case
of the Welsh Iron Company my bill is found fault with as
large, but in the late Norfolk, ikc.-Company, fault is found
that there is no bill, and that the Directors and Share-
holders are largely in debt to me. Here a clerk out of
place, violating the confidence reposed in him by his former
employers, is the accuser ; and those who attended the
meetings were nearly all not only not holders of Scrip
then, but never had been; and, like poor Mr. Clark, at,
tended the meetings for want of better occupation. By
this concern I am canfessedly the loser—but because the
times are bad—no business is stirring—and money among
the Stock Jobbers is scarce—such a person as George
Sbeldrick is allowed anonymously to call a meeting of an
Assdciation long since without ,existence.
To these, and other less public modes of attack, I have
now, however, submitted too long. I have said public
opinion will change, and my refutations will in their turn
be heard. To myself, however, and others, I owe more
than this, and I therefore distinctly state, that not merely
by civil actions, but by indictments and criminal informa-
tions, I shall now proceed calmly but firmly to punish the
vile slanderers, and shall be awed by no paper, however
great its circulation, or well or ill-deserved its influence
with the unthinking portion of the public. For different
libels and different slanders, as well oral as written, and as
well past as future, I shall adopt different proceedings;
and whilst I will on the one hand supply to others all the
opportunities to which they may be entitled, to prove their
allegations ; yet, on the other hand, I will not sue any pro.
prietor of a newspaper for civil damages, who has no
property to lose, as he has no reputation to maintain, and
-who would consider imprisonment as no punishment, since
existence is to him a sufficient blessing.
I remain, Sir, your obedient Servant, •

AWFUL INSTANCE of SUDDEN DEATH

INQUEST AT TOTTENHAM.
Yesterday an inquisition was taken at the
Plough beforetgin .1. W. Unwin, Esq., on the remains
ogh T avenei vl
of Mr. Isaac Powell, an inhabitant of Tottenham.
Mrs. Jane Harvey stated that she lived opposite to the
deceased. On Wednesday night
.between nine and" ten
o'clock, she was alarmed by the cries of Mrs. Powell call-
ing for her assistance ; she at once hurried over, and found
the deceased sitting:in a chair Weeding profusely from the
mouth and ears, an interval of a minute might have elapsed
when he leant backwards and appeared- insensible. Mr.
may, the Surgeon, was sent for, but on his arrival he said
dud nothing could be done for him as the vital spark had
tied. • She understood that previous to the sudden visita-
tion a peered
in he had supped heartily with his family, and
in the best health and spirits. He was of a sparetabrteedf
body, and about .50 years of age.
This evidence was corroborated by another witness, and
the Surgeon's certificate being handed in, the Jury re-
turned a verdict of " Apoplexy:,
The deceased has left a wife and six children tQ km"

CITY, (Tim DAY), Twelve o'Vock.
This morning Consols opened at 80, and inunediately after.
wards advanced to 801, occasioned by the leading article in a
morning paper, which, from being an alarmist, has discisvered, all
at once,
th„lunst peaceable intentions, and nraortling to the article
alluded to, every obstacle to the continuance of peace is a matter
settled and determined upon, although no new facto have trans=
pired to countenance its reasoning upon the subject ; in truth it
has had .a contrary effect to that intended, and Consols have be-
come since very heavy and declined to 791 at the latter buyers
being the neatest price. In the Foreign 'Market scarcely any
business has been done, and the house Mennot yet recovered the
