vouring to escape, and threatening to reduce the
people of England to their own miserable level.
•It has, indeed, been said that the measure which
has just been carried will not afford tha people
of Ireland employment. It will not afford them
employment directly, but it will do it indirectly,
by producing tranquillity, without which the
wealth of the capitalist and the labour of the
workman must be alike unproductive. The
slightest acquaintance with the condition of Ire-
land will convince any one of the possibility of
making its own soil and its own natural re-
sources much more than adequate to the con-
siderable support of its population, numerous
as it is. There are absolutely millions of acres
of land, which, though they now produce
nothing, may be made, and, if situated in this
country, would long since have been made, to
supply the watts of thousands of families.
These are in a state of nature, and the reasons
for this are only too obvious ; the distracted
state of the country has driven the landholders
into voluntary exile, and deterred the capitalists,
both English and Irish, from vesting their wealth
in a country in which there has been no secu-
rity for property, or even for life. In the same
manner, the facilities which exist in Ireland, for
affording food and employment to thousands of
its people, by means of the fisheries, which
might be established on almost every part of its
coasts, have been altogether neglected ; and
though wealth and tranquillity have been intro-
duced into the most barren and turbulent dis-
tricts of the Highlands of Scotland, by the pro-
secution of this branch of industry, not a single
fishery, worthy of the name, exists along the
coasts of Ireland, indented as tncy are by innu-
merable creeks and bays, the refuge of millions
of fish of every kind. This is precisely the sL'itn
of things that exists in every branch of industry.
Every thing is in- a diseased state. A curse
—the curse of religious and political dissen-
sion—has rested on the country for ages, pa-
ralysing all its energies. It is now happily re-
moved, and we may look forward with confidence
to a slow and gradual, but progressive improve-
ment, which will not only introduce prosperity
and happiness into Ireland, but will also free
this country from many of the burdens which it
has at present to bear.—Leeds Mercury.

WORSHIP-STREET.

On Saturday, Fletcher Young, a baker, one of
the headboroughs for the liberty of Norton-falgate,
was placed at the bar before Mr. BROUGHTON and
Mr. WALKER, charged with a violent outrage and
assault upon Thomas Bright, a young man of re-
spectable appearance, who described himself as a
veterinary surgeon, residing in Cooper-street, City-
road.

Mr. Bright had been brought to the office on
Thursday, from the Norton-falgate watch-house,
where he had been locked up all night. No charge
was established against him, however, but, on the
contrary, he appeared to have been so exceedingly
ill-treated, that Mr. TWYFORD, the Magistrate then
on the Bench, advised him to proceed against the
officer, either upon assault-warrant at this office, or
by action, for the serious injuries he had sustained.
He applied on Friday for the assault-warrant, taid
the bearing of the case furnished ample proof, if
proof were wanting, of the absolute necessity for a
reform of the parochial police.
The complainant stated, that on Wednesday he
went to the Black Boy public-house, in Sun-street,
where a dispute took place between him and the
waiter, who had improperly executed the order given
to him ; and the landlady (Mrs. Durant) sent for
an officer, the present defendant, who took the com-
plainant eff to the watch-house, and locked him up.
He was discharged some time afterwards, however,
with.the landl idy's consent, and the defendant then
told him that he ought not to have been sent to the
watch-house at all. The complainant and a friend
now present then treated the defendant with drink,
and he went with them to an eating-house.in Wor-
ship-street, where they all dined together, and the
' complainant was about to pay for the dinner, and to
go home; but the defendant swore that he would
pay fur his own dinner, seized him by the collar,
beat his head against the table, and after beating and:
knocking him about in the most violent manner,
dragged him to the watch-house, where he again
struck him several violent blows; and having shoved
him into a cell, and locked him up, went away.
The defendant was sentenced to pay .5/. fine, or
be imprisoned two months. He was locked up for
an hour, and then paid the penalty.
London, England, 1829-04-27

UNION-HALL.

Elizabeth Warren, the woman who has been so
long in custody, charged with assaulting Mary
Howard, was brought up again on Saturday.
The poor woman who was sn dreadfully mal-
treated and taken to the hospital, died in the course
of the last week. An inquest sat on the body, and
the verdict returned against the prisoner was " Man-
slaughter." She was now committed to Hozse-
monger-lane, to take her trial, on the Coroner's war-
rant, for that offence.

Henry Conly, the driver of the cabriolet No. 125,
was summoned by Mr. L. Williams, fur charging
more than his fare, and for abusive language.
Mr. Williams stated that he hired the cabriolet in
Cornhill, and took it from place to place, and finally
discharged the driver at the Coburg theatre, having
had the vehicle about an hour and three-quarters.
The man demanded 10s., then Bs. 4d., and at length
took ss. 6d. This sum, however, Mr. Williams
was satisfied was considerably more than the legal
fare; but he would rather have paid it, he said, than
trouble a Magistrate. After Conly had taken the
.ss. 6d. he went out, but presently returned, bringing
with him a Bow-street officer, and desiring the
officer to take Mr. Williams into custody. As soon
as the latter had related the circumstances of the
case, the officer declined interfering, and walked
away. In addition to this piece of shameful conduct
on the part of the driver, he abused Mr. Williams
very much, using epithets and expressions of a dis-
graceful character.
Mr. HONE, the Magistrate before whom the com-
plaint was urged, now called on the defendant to
state what he had to offer in extenuation.

" Please your Worship," replied the driver, " I
am only young in the business, and I did not know
the distance."
" You understood very well," observed the Ma-
gistrate, " how to demand more than double to what
you are entitled."
" By the hour I can charge, Sir," said the man,
" as much as a hackney coach."

" But you demanded twice that sum," said Mr.
Williams, " and I believe your fure was not above
2s. 6d. or 35."
" I am very sorry for what I did," said the driver,
" and I hope you will forgive me."
" Your conduct has been £0 shameful," said Mr.
HoNE, " that I feel it my duty to punish you, and
I shall impose a fine of Si. and expences, which if
you do not pay, I shall commit you to prison for
one month."

" I have not half as much money," continued
the driver, " and I have a wife with a large family
of children to support ; 1 hope, therefore, that you
will not require me to pay the money."
" You should have considered your wife and family
before you attempted to extort money from the com-
plainant," said the Magistrate, " I shall enforce
the judgment I have pronounced."
The owner of the cabriolet was in attendance;
but he declined advancing the fine, saying that he
hoped the driver would be punished.
Conly not having the amount of the fine, was
taken away by the gaoler.
Mr. Williams said, in the event of the fine being

(FROM THE MORNING ADVERTISER.)

It is now said that. Parliament will not be I ri-
rogued so soon as was expected, and that the Ses-
sion will continue until the third week in June, if

not until the beginning 'of July. fhe Bill for im•
proving the Police of the Metropolis will require
great consideration, and will occupy much of the
time of both Houses, as toeing a measure in which
the personal safety and the property of the public
are deeply interested. We know nothing, also, as
yet, of the intended financial arrangements in con-
templation by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, but
they are supposed to be such as will require consi-
deration, and give rise to delay ; and it is also un-
derstood that Lord Holland in the House of Peers,
and Sir James Mackintosh in the House of Corn-

mons, will call the attention of Parliament, before
it separates, to otir foreign relations, with a view
particularly of obtaining information with respect
to the intended measures of Ministers towards Por-
tugal, and whether it is the intention of Govern-
ment to -acknowledge the Usurper, Don Miguel,
as the legitimate Sovereign of Portugal, or to send
a military force to that country, to support the
rights of the young Queen, conformably to the an-
cient alliance between the Governments of Great
Britain and Portugal. The affairs of Russia and
Tiiikey, there can be no doubt, will also come
under consideration ; but on this point it is not ex-
pected. that his Majesty's Ministers will be pressed;
nor would it be fair to press them. Their declara-
tion, us recorded in the King's Speech at the close
of the Session of Parliament last year, that the em-
pire of Turkey must remain entire, is before every
one ; and with the re-affirmation of that declaration
every one ought to be satisfied. The Duke of Wel-
lington is, no doubt, exerting all his influence to
procure an accommodation between the contending
parties; but in the present state of the negotiations,
it would assuredly be improper to press the Go-
vernment to any further disclosure than the reitera-
tion of the principle that " Turkey is not to be dis-
membered."

PLYMOUTH, APRIL 24.—Wind S.E.—Sailed the
Vibelia, for New Yoric.
DEAL, APRIL 26.—Wind E.N.E.—Arrived the
James Cruikshank, Young, from St. Vincent's; and

FALMOUTH, APRIL 24.—Wind S.E.—Arrived
the Eclipse packet Griffin, sailed from Pernambuco
the 20th of January, Bahia the 24th, and Rio the
28th of Februa►y.

The Victoria, Hanson, from Keil to Hull, was
driven on shore, near Preenaac, on the cast coast of
Jutland, the 15th inst.; about 200 quarters of
wheat being thrown overboard, and the rest landed,
it was expected the vessel would be got off.

THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN-EXCHANGE.

There was a considerable supply of Oats last week, and moderate
quantities of all other Grain. This morning there are few fresh
arrivals of any descriptions of Corn. The attendance of country
buyers was good, and the weather keeping vegetation in a backward
state, induced them to purchase more freely than of late, and the
best parcels of Wheat have in consequence obtained rather higher
prices, and there has also been rather more doing in other kinds.
Barley continues very dull at last quotations. Beans and Pease
are firm in prices, without alteration. Good Oats meet a free de-
mand at the same terms as last quoted, but stale and light de-
scriptions still meet sale with much difficulty. There is no varia-
tion in the Flour trade.

BO W-STREET.

A young man named William King, was charged
by Captain Miles with stealing a silver cigar-case,
value .51. his property.
Captain Miles stated that he went to Drury-lane
Theatre on Friday night, and as it was a fine even-
ing he smoked a cigar on his way thither. He
called at a tobacconist's shop in Holborn, and pur-
chased cigars and filled his case, which be estimated
at more than its intrinsic value, because it was a
gift of a brother officer, when he was on service in
India. When he entered the theatre he was posi-
tive that the cigar-case was in the side pocket of
his top coat. The prisoner stopped him as he
entered the Rotunda of the theatre, on his way to
the boxes, and asked him if he would leave his
coat in his came till the performance had terminated.
He took off his coat, and received a ticket from the
prisoner. When the performance concluded he
went down stairs and asked for his coat, which the
prisoner produced on receiving the ticket. Witness
put his hand to his side pocket to feel if his cigar-
case was safe, and found it was gone. He taxed the
prisoner with having abstracted it. He denied it.
Witnesa ascertained that the prisoner was employed
to assist bas father (a very:iespectahle old man, who
is employed at the theatre to take care of eoats,
cloaks, &c.), and that after he had received witness's
coat, he had left the theatre for a considerable time
and, believing that he had taken that opportunity of
disposing of the cigar-case, hegave him into custody.
Sir R. BIRNIE asked the Captain if he was quite
positive that the cigar-case was in his coat pocket
whey he left it with the prisoner.
The Captain replied that he was quite certain.
Sir RICHARD BIRNIE observed that he thought
gentlemen, when they left their coats in the care of
the porters of the theatre, ought to take care there
was no property left in the pockets, because it was
a strong temptation to dishonesty.
Mr. Thomas, the constable of Covent-garden,
said that the system of Drury-lane Theatre was
acted upon at Covent-garden Theatre ; and he assur-
ed the Magistrate that not a single robbery had been
committed for seven fears in the latter house; and
the only mistake that had.occurred, was in one gen-
tleman taking another's coat for his own, which was
afterwards exchanged.
Sir RICHARD BIRNIE, having ascertained that the
prisoner was not a young man of very regular habits,
regretted, on account of his father, whose honesty
was unimpeached, to be compelled to commit him
for the offence.
The prisoner declared that lie had not seen the
property, but he declined stating where he lodged.
He was committed.

note no change, fine samples continue selling in moderate quan-
tities, but the inferior parcels are in no demand. Only fine Malt
selling, for which the demand is heavy. In English Rye little

NIANCHESI ER CORN MARKET.—ApriI 25.
We had a fair attendance of millers and dealers at our market
to-day. Fine samples of Wheat were in request at last Saturday's
prices. Grinding Barley is dull sale. Oats are held at Id. per
bushel above last week's rates. Boiling Pease are nominal, and
Beans barely support the currency of Saturday last. The general
depression in the manufacturing trade seriously affects the price of
Malt, the consumption being much contracted. Fine fresh-made
Flour as last noted, and Oatmeal without alteration.

LADY ROBERT MANNERS.

Freehold Country Residence, at Sutton, in Surrey, a little
removed from the high Brighton road ; a most com-
fortable abode, in the midst of its greatly admired and
. _

extensive grounds and fire rich paddocks, and in the
centre of field sports of every description.
MR. GEORGE ROBINS has the satis-
-OA faction of announcing, that he will SELL by

May, at Twelve o'clock, by direction of the Executers,
and peremptorily, an excellent
FAMILY RESIDENCE,
Freehold of Inheritance, and for neatly 20 years the
FAVOURED RETREAT OF LADY ROBERT
MANNERS, deceased.
It is desirably situate in the cheerful
VILLAGE OF SUTTON,

a little removed from the high road to Brighton. It has
been long known and admired as the Manor House. Its
external appearance is uniform, and the interior posseste%
more of family comfort than any of the modern residences
will pretend to. The bed rooms are numerous and very
airy; the dressing rooms and dining parlours of excellent
proportions, each possessing a separate and varied viesr of
the grounds; and the secondary offices and domestic ar-
rangement include every thing the moat fastidious could
suggest.

THE PLEASURE GROUNDS, EXTENDED LAWNS,
AND SHRUBBERY WALKS,

have uniformly been the subject of the highest commen-
dation. They are clothed with an immense variety of
American and other rare plants, including the evergreen
oak, Portugal laurel, and cedar of Lebanon, feathering to
the ground, and rendering it green and beautiful during
the unpropitious months of winter, besides a fish pond
and fountain in the centre. The disposition of these
grounds is in accordance with the best taste, even Repton
could not have surpassed them. The kitcherigardens are
unusually extensive and productive, and there is a
NOBLE RANGE OF CONSERVATORIES
and hot houses, with a melon ground for 37 lights, forced
by steam. There is a court yard, which incloses coach
houses, stabling for six horses, laundry, brew-house, and
indeed every office essential to family comfort, together
with

FIVE PADDOCKS OF CHOICE MEADOW LAND,
forming altogether one of the most condonable retreats
within the same distance of this great Metropolis.
It can be viewed only with cards, and Particulars had
20 days prior to the Sale, at the Inns at Sutton, Croydon,
and Epsom; of Messrs. Frere and Forsters, Solicitors,
Lidcoln's Inn; the Auction Mart; and in Covent.,

OLD WINDSOR LODGE.

A DELIGHTFUL FREEHOLD RESIDENCE in the
Rural Village of Old Windsor, environed by its Plea-
sure Grounds, Shrubbery Walks, and Park Meadows,
and within Two Miles of the Royal Palace. Immediate
possession may be had.

TO BE SOLD BY AUCTION,
By Mr. GEORGE ROBINS,
At the Auction Mart, London, on Tnuttsnar, the 14th
of May, at Twelve, by direction of Captain Stevens.

THIS ELEGANT FREEHOLD RE-
SIDENCE, has very long been distinguished as
OLD WINDSOR LODGE,
and it is proverbial in the neighbourhood, that it possesses
more of family comfort than most of its rival compeers.
The exterior presents a handsome uniform front, screened
from the road by prolific Shrubberies and Pleasure
Grounds, and the interior will be found to combine all
the accommodation a family of respectability can desire.
The principal rooms are of not le proportions, overlooking
the far famed Church of Old NiTindsor, in which it has a
large Pew, and the interesting scenery from thence to

" THE PALACE OF WINDSOR CASTLE."
The Bed-chambers and secondary apartments are all of
the best description, and the domestic arrangement is alto-
gether so complete as to leave nothing to be desired.
THIS RURAL AND ALWAYS ENVIED ABODE
is embosomed in its extensive and delightful pleasure
grounds, with shrubbery walks, adorned by an infinity of
choice shrubs and American plants, giving a green fresh-
ness to the walks even in the dreary months of winter.
THE DOMAIN IS ABOUT IS ACRES,
and all Freehold. In front of the Residence is an Acre
of Ground laid out in Garden and Ornamental Water,
with Shrubbery Walks, which nearly surround it. There
is a double Coach-house, Stabling for Twelve Horses ; and
in the Court-yard will be found every office essential to
family comfort. It would he superfluous to enlarge upon
the neighbourhood, since it has long been admitted that in
no part of England it can be surpassed.
The Estate can only be viewed with cards, from Twelve
till Four, and par ticulars had 21 days prior to the Sale, at
the Inns at Windsor and Salt Hill ; the Auction Mart;
and at Mr. George Robins's offices, London.
London, England, 1829-04-18

£l6O A-YEAR ;

and by furnishing them moderately a large annual income
may be safely contemplated.

Crouch, on the Premises; particulars had at the Royal
and York Hotels, Margate ; the Fountain, Canterbury ; of
Mr. ➢filler, solicitor, New Inn; and at Mr. Gao. Robin's

THE FINELY TIMBERED PARK

'•4as drawn largely on the bounty of nature, in as much as
the scene, however beautiful, must be somewhat imperfect
without the

ORNAMENTAL WATERS,

which complete the coup d'ctil of this delectable retreat.
Connected with it are
THE MANORS, MANORIAL RIGHTS,
PRIVILEGES AND IMMUNITIES,

extending over a large and fertile tract a highly cultivated
Land.

THE ESTATE INCLUDES
EIGHTEEN MOST CAPITAL FARMS,

The whole of which are Freehold (save only about 120
Acre) which are Copyhold, and in the occupation of a
mot4t respectable Tenantry, at Reduced Rents, capable of
much improvement. There is besides,

The property is situate within Four miles of Saffron Walden
and Bishop's, Stortford, and certainly in the most esteemed
part of the County ;

LORD BRAYBROOKE'S ADMIRED
MANSION AND ESTATE

Almost approximates upon it, the neighbourhood is re-
markable for the superiority of its occupants, and to a
sporting man it abounds with advantage that are rarely
to be met with ; this is is a faint outline of an investment
that possesses so many other advantages, and of a charac-
ter so unequivocal, that Mr. Robins feels great pleasure in
recomtnendine, it in an especial manner to the attention of
great CapitalistQ.
The Mansion and Estate can be viewed only by cards,

perty (shewing very conspicuously its corqactness) will

UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE.

CAMBRIDGE.—Copy of a letter addressed by the Proctors
to the Vice-Chancellor, stating the grounds on which they
felt themselves obliged to resign their offices :
" SIR—We beg leave respectfitlly to state that yester-
day the Proctors in the execution of their duty were re-
sisted and most grossly insulted by a large body of the
Undergraduates of this University.
" Certain individuals, actively concerned in that dis-
turbance, were in consequence convened before the Heads
of Houses. And we cannot but think that the punish.
ment adjudged affords no adequate security against the re-
currence of a similar outrage.
" We therefore feel that the Proctors have not sufficiently
the confidence or support of the Heads of Houses to enable
them to maintain that discipline which they have engaged
to uphold.
" Under these circumstances we beg leave respectfully
to resign the several offices which have been entrusted to
(Signed) ALEXANDER M. WALE, Sen. Proc.
HENRY MELVILL, Jun. Proc.
R. TWOPENNY, Proprocur.
FREDERIC SMITII, Proprocur.
" To the Rev. the Vice-Chancellor."

" Pembroke Lodge, April 13, 1829.

" Whereas on Thursday last, the 9th inst. a great number
of Undergraduates assembled together in a tumultuous
manner, and, as it has been represented to us, with a pre-
meditated design of insulting certain of tke University
Officers
" We, the Vice-Chancellor and Heads of Colleges,
hereby give notice, that if any persons in stall pupillari
shall hereafter meet together in such manner and with such
design, and, being ro met, shall offer any insult to any
University Officer, or, being warned to disperse, shall not
immediately comply, they shall, on being duly convicted, be
expelled from the University.
