BRITISH DIORAMA.

This entertaining exhibition was opened for a private
inspection on Saturday. It consists of tour views, two of
which have been painted by Stanfield, and two by Roberta.
—The two by Roberts are, the Interior of St. George's
Chapel, Windsor, and the Ruins of Tinton abbey, by
moonlight; those by Stanfield (well known for his able
sea-paintings), are the Lake of Maggiore i❑ Italy, and the
Wreck of an Indianian and Storm on the Co.e.:t. The
light and shade in both series of views are dexterously con-
trived, but are yet far flow equalling, in point of feli-
citous tact, their Continental predecessors. The change
of views, however, is an improvement on the original
plan ; for, instead of the s-;,.ectators being moved round the
building-, they remain stationary, while a sort of screen
opens and shuts, to show or conceal the views. We think
it not unlikely that this exhibition will have a rum.

PANORAMA, BAKER-STREET, PORTMAN

SQUARE.

This is a spirited, and—as we are led to understand—a,
faithful representation of the late far-famed Battle of Navarin.
A close hand-to-hand sort of fight between the Asia and a
tremendous Turkish Admiral, is pourtrayed in all its
horrors ; the general action, too, is shadowed forth with
great distinctness, considering the vast variety of objects of
every form and character, with which the canvas is neces-
sarily crowded. The explosion of part of the Turkish
fleet deserves close and particular attention—it has really a
terrific appearance. As a whole the Panorama is well
worth a visit.

MANCHESTER CORN MARKET.—March 8.

The Corn Trade has been quite inanimate in every
branch during the present week. The Market was well
attended to-day. We had rather mere inquiry for fine
Wheat, but no improvement in price. The damp samples
cannot be pushed off, even at 3d. to 6d. per bushel below
the first runs. In Barley there is very little doing. Seed
Oats are offering on lower terms ; but there are very few
buyers, and the large importations (Irish) caused Feed and
Mealing Oats to be dull, at a decline of id. to Id. per
bushel. Boiling Pease and Beans are. each dull. The
stocks of Malt have become very large, and sales exceed-
ingly dull. The demand for Flour is likewise limited.
Oatmeal may be purchased on better terms.

STATE OF TRADE.—The demand for weavers
continues unabated in this town, although no advance of
wages has taken place since our last ; bnt from what we
have heard, this must speedily occur, or our manufacturers
will not be able to complete their orders. The extraor-
dinary quantity of looms now employed with silk and
cotton, has created a scarcity of muslin weavers, and this
scarcity will increase unless our manufacturers pay some-
thing like corresponding wages. We have been informed
that in the neighbourhood of Leigh alone, 1500 hands have
been transferred from muslin, to silk and cotton fabrics.—

KING'S THEATRE.

Rossini's pieta of Otello was on Saturday night repre-
sented at this Theatre, on which occasion Madame Pasta
resumed her favourite part of Desdtmona. This is one
of her most popular characters, and certainly her acting
in the last scene is unrivalled; we scarcely even except her
Medea. As Otello is already sufficiently known to a
London audience, we shall forbear to enlarge upon the
peculiar character of its music, further than to observe that
its rich and N'aticd harmonies received, as far as Madame
Pasta was concerned, every support that genius and judg-
ment could lend them. 'The remaining characters were,
as usual, respectably supported. lago, more especially,
was rendered truly comic. The house was full.

BURNET'S HISTORY of tLe REFORMATION.

The WORKS of Sir WALTER RALEIGH, together
with hie LIFE.
London, England, 1828-12-09

IN the morning of Life, when the blandish-
mitnts of passion " take the reason prisoner," it is
eu evil more to be lamented than wondered at, if, in the
vortex of deceptive pleasure, the unhappy traitor against
the laws of nature pays in lonely disappointment a fearful
exaction for his rebellion in the compromise of hie mental
as well as bodily pawns. To all persons so c‘ircumetaiseed
as to require the professional aid of men of experience,
whose time has been for twenty years studiously and suc-
cessfully devoted to the complaints arising from nervous
debility, whether natural or aeAptirea, GOSS and CO.
proffer the most consolatory assurances. The youth who
has enervated his frame by the strangely fascinating sin,
which the poor victim of felly will too readily comprehend
without further description, may find relief from his misery,
and be kindly taught to regain his kat place in the scale of
creation. The sufferer who, from another extreme of in-
dulgence, bas with in:Magianl forehead, wooteal
may learn to renovate nature. and repair hie abused con-
stitution. The man of pleasure exposed to and suffering
from Ltte4 VCaert,ia, however aggievatett by tnalprawice of
the quack, or the concealment from diffidence, May find
a certain resterstion; and finally iu Ca.CI where the delay
of a eennultill pledge has almost extended disuppointutent
to despair, they offer to the married female those hopes
which she earl reasonably appreciate. Remedies con be
faewiuded to any part of tho world; Patients writing for
the same, will please to euelose a Dank Note. Attendance

AN EARNEST APPEAL in behalf of
APOSTOLICAL CHRISTIANITY.

If our Religious Establishment (like its Roman C ttholie
predecessor), is conscientiously determined to have a
Trinity i❑ Unity, whether a Trinity in Unity
,be found
in the Scriptures or not, it does well undoubtedly, at any
hazard to its character as a Protestant Church, to keep
up the Unchristian Name, and• anatheinatize all who can
find neither name•nor thing, there. But if the charm of
the hypothesis have nut quite this degree of fascination in
their eyes, would not the -Maui of the Church and hi.,
Apostles of the Nineteen►h Century do well to reconsider
the question, whether the Head of the Church and his
Apostles in the Ist may not have dune ample justice to any
fandaniental dogma el Christianity, though unquestionably
.they must plead guilty to the omission of its name, anti
set no example of so orthodox a spit it. .

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

Sir G. FARRANT, the magistrate, yesterday read a
letter which lie had that morning received from
Paris, addressed to him by a gentleman at present
resident in that city, enclosing a 101. note of the
Bank of England, which the writer requested the
Magistrate would take the trouble of applying for
the relief of Dr. Bernardo de Sanctis, a medical
gentleman, who had been for several years chief
physician to the Prussian embassy in this country,
but who is now reduced by untoward circumstances
to the necessity of taking shelter in the workhouse
of St. Pancras parish, of which he is at present an
inmate. The writer of the letter stated, that be
was led to a knowledge of the misfortunes of Dr. de
Sanctis by seeing a statement of his distressed situ-
atiou under the head of this office in the Times
new paper at Paris, and therefore it was that he ad-
dressed.himself to the magistrate, before whom the
Times stated that the doctor had appeared for parish
relief. The benevolent writer went on to say that
he had known Dr. de Sanctis for many years very
intimately, and that he knew him to be no less dis-
tintruished for his high intOlectual attainments than
for his moral worth and excellent private character.
Sir George Parrant, after reading the letter, sent the
office messenger for Dr. de Sanctis 'to the work-
house, who shortly attended, when the Magistrate
handed over to him the 101. note, at the same time
telling him the source from whence it came.
The Doctor thanked the Magistrate for his kind.
ness, and expressed his gratitude towards the hu-
mane individual who had sent him se seasonable a
relief.

Qurjt MEAT.—A Meat Salesman was sum-
monild_ before the LORD MA.voß,by the Ward In-
quest orPortsoken, for having exposed to sale two
dead sheeli of a very questionable description.
It was sthed that one of the sheep was of a
greenish hue, 'told very offensive to the: smell, and
that the other apOityed to be a " casualty7,;(a sheep
that died by strangulfttion or drowning,
~or;.in any
way without the spilling of blood). Both wete ex-
ceedingly unfit to be usetrl!y human beings ; and the
Ward Inquest very properly.'domplained, for the Sake
of the public, the poorer pertion of which tifere•
tempted to purchase at a low rate. • •
Two carcase butcheas deposed *at the sheep were:'
most objectionable.
The defendant here retaliated upciiohe butchers,
and said that some gentlemen of that trade ought to
look at their rotten old cows and their [hilly oxen
(laughter). In his opinion a vow that died of a
bowel complaint, or a typhus fever, was eveiribit as
bad food as a casualty or a green sheep. (Lauglitrr).
The LORD MAYOR. said, he should certaitilfin
future punish every person guilty of such an offeticevi:
As it appeared, however, that in this case the meat
was not sold for human consumption, he should remit
the penalty. His Lordship commended the Inquest
for the very proper discharge of their duty.

The arguments of Counsel in this ease were con.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JAN. 12.
lIILYARD V. 310UNT.

This was an action by a poor mariner against the
owner of the ship Mary, a South Sea whaler, to re-
cover the amount of a 140th share of the net pro-
ceeds of the cargo of that ship on a voyage made
by it between 1822 and 1824. The defendant had
pleaded nine special pleas, one of which alleged that
under a clause in the ship's articles the plaintiff had
forfeited his 140th share, by not having returned
home with the ship.
Two witnesses were then examined, and it was
proved that the plaintiff was discharged from the
Mau on the 11th of July, 1824, for the purpose of
going, with four other men, on board the Hark:tow,
and the certificate of the Captain, which was given
tg him at the time, declared him to be entitled to the
140th share. After some further evidence had been
given,
Lord TENTERDEN suggested whether it would not
be to the interest of both parties, as a means of sav-
ing expence, to refer the case to a barrister.
Mr. BROUGHAM, for the defendant, reminded his
Lordship of the clause in the articles, stipulating,
that if the men did not return home with the ship,
they should forfeit their shares.

Lord TENTERDEN said, it appeared that the plain-
tiff had left the ship with the leave of the Captain;
but supposing him to have forfeited all benefit under
the articles, he would still be entitled, upon a quan-
tum mcruit, to a compensation for the services he
had rendered prior to his discharge.
A verdict was then entered for the plaintiff, sub-
ject to a reference.

Special jury cases will be proceeded with to-day
Monday) and during the week.

order could be restored, the small boat was manned, and
sent to Bedlow's Island, where they procured the assistance
of the soldiers, and by nine o'clock the passengers were all
landed in safety on that island, where they were comfort-
ably provided for by the officers, and reached the city yes-
terday morning. We learn from a passenger, that when
the boat struck, she was going at, the rate of 10 knots, and
had it not been for her great strength, she would have passed
over the rock, and sunk in deep water. In this event,
very few, if any, on hoard would have been saved, as there
was no possibility of procuring immediate relief. The boat
