ASSESSED TAXES.

Ti.- Amason of Taxes In the neighbourhood of Uxbridge are
otraismenonly vignette in performing the duties of their olive.
Oa Friday lam the Commissioners hohba meeting, at the IlEing's
Arms, Uxbridge, for the purpose of disposing of such cases as were
appealed against, and the following may be considered a fair
specimen of their judicial proceedings :—An Inhabitant of West
Drayton appealed against his assessment. The premises he occu-
pies bad been " curtailed of their fair proportions," viz. the
garden bad been reduced oearly one-half, and a prolific orchard de-
tached ; consequently the landlord had reduced the rent of the
premises from MO per annum to 4114 and the new tenant ex-
pected a reduction of the taxes. Before the appellant stated these
circumstances, a Bible bad been handed to him, and be was sworn
"to speak the truth. and nothing but the troth," atc. He further
said, that his house was furnblsed with the landlord's fixtures, of
which be bad the use ; these he valued at 440, and the use of
them, allowing for wear, cite. at about 45 per annum. no landlord
had also given in a mouth's free occupation, to induce him to take
the premises for twelve months, which the appellant argued should
be taken into consideration In fixing the estimate of the sonual
value ; and be funkier urged that no house, he believed, wu rated
to the foil rack rent—be therefore submitted that if be ware rated
at 412 it would meet the justice of the case, particularly as when
the premises were let fur 430 the rate was di S. To Adds it was
replied, that the house, Lim. bad before been rated too low ; that
the only argument they could consider was that relative to the flu-
tares, that El per annum was sufficient for their use; and conse-
quently, the ommisslaners fixed the assessment at 417 pee annum.

CORN-EXCHANGE.. MARK-TANK. Fu. t.

We had but a short arrival of Wheat for this day's market; but
as the supply of Flour was tolerably fair, there were more inquiries
for the termer than sales effected, and upon the whole, a trifle
more w 3 obtained for fine Wheat than list Monday's quotation.
Barley, owing to the state of the river, has been accumulating. and
the arrival this morning was very large ; the finest malting samples
sold full 1s per quarter cheaper; the inferior /Ofts were unsaleable.
Beans and Peas were dull sale, but not lower in price. Oats being
in short supply, obtained rather more money. In other articles
there is no aim ation.

THE MAGYAR DANCE.

PRIX THE DIUNGARLAN POPULAR SOROS.
Mfg est mandifik : nem tincs a' Magyarnak.
A very pretty piece of dreaming to fancy that a Magyar lad,
In leathern shoes and shortened breeches, can dance! 0, no ; but

see him clad
In rattling spurs and plumy bead-dress; and then, and then, when
full of joy,
Before his pearl-browed Magyar maiden, Oh then behold the
Magyar boy.
Oar Magyar dance they say is lonely, a melancholy dance they say
But see a Magyar foot when twinkling--is it not sportive, glad,
and gay?
Go to the Shimian fields and tell me, if ever fancy's busy glance
Dwelt on a scene so brightly joyous, or followed a more rapturous
dance.

The dance of Gaul is affectation ; and light tho' German dances be,
They are but as eternal sameneu—a wearisome monotony :
And gloomy are the English dances—a heavy and a tiresome chain;
But ours, but ours were consecrated, aye! down from old King
David's reign !

GUILDHALL

Saturday ifaUkew Career, who for many year* has been one of
the substitute constables of Bread-street Ward, and who keeps •
fishmongres shop in little Carter-lane, was charged with stabbing
his wife in the abdomen. The prisoner did not male any defence,
and the Alderman remanded him, remarking that his being drunk
would not excuse him in the eye of the law.
BOW STREET.

SOTTEAT AT TNT Dull or ST. SLIPAII.B..-About a fortnight
ago the Noble Duke had a party at Ms tuandon in Piccadilly, and,
as usual, the plate used on the occasion was taken from the chest,
and prepared for the table by a man who was in the service of
M . Rundell and Bridge, in whom great confidence was placed.
In a few days afterwards another party was glven,and subsequently
a quantity of plate, upon which the Duke's crest was
engraved, was missed. How it could have been stolen was
considered quite a mystery, till it was ascertained that the
man had absconded, and then, of course. suspicion lighted
upon him. The Duke instantly offered a reward of ASO for
the recovery of the property and the apprehension of the thief.
Salmon, the officer, bag been actively engaged ever since in tracing
the property, and by great perseverance and good fortune he suc-
ceeded in discovering the whole of it, part having been sold at a sil-
versmith's and the remainder at a refiner's. The Duke's crest had
been effaced from the plate, by: it was knows by the style of its ma-
nufacture.

then seen to enjoy a slight foretaste of what a rational
system of society will give to mankind.
The Infant School, on its original principles, has
ceased to exist for some years at New Lanark.
The schools for the older children at this establishment
are, however, excellent schools under the old system for
children of he working classes. Mr. Charles Walker,
Mho now superintends the establishment, does great
justice to this department, in which he has retained, to
the full extent, as much of the new and rational system
as the conscientious scruples of his partners and the system
of the Society of Friends will admit.
Before, however, you can establish a rational Infant
School, the ignorance of society, with regard to the fun-
damental laws of human nature, must be removed, and

especially it must be generally known, acknowledged,
and felt, that man has not the power to think and feel as
he pleases, and the circumstances which now exist in
opposition to this fact, must be removed, so that all in
unison with it must be introduced, to replace the former,
and then, and not before, the inestimable and innumerable
advantages of a rational education may be witnessed and
enjoyed.
The present Infant Schools which you support and
patronise, are evidences of your good intentions, and also
of the vicious circumstances in which you are involved.

They are, in very many instances, a mockery or carica-
ture of the original school, and have no pretensions to be
considered as that school was intended to be, the first
practical step towards a rational system of education, or,
in other words, a new arrangement of circumstances in
which to place children, as nearly approximating to
virtuous and rational circumstances, as the ignorance of
the present vicious system will admit. And these new ar-
rangements were so formed in consequence of the founder
of the rational system of society seeing the children of
the operatives at New Lanark, and in other manufac-
turing districts, surrounded from their birth with so
many unfavourable and vicious circumstances. Your
aid, therefore, to remove more and more of the existing
vicious circumstances from around all children, and to
create those of a superior character, with which to re-
place the vicious circumstances, will confer a practical
benefit upon the human race, such as at present it knows
not how to estimate.

FLANDERS PAPERS.

CONSTANTINOPLR, Dzczatisa 24.

There is great activity in the department of Foreign Affairs, and
the Divan assembles daily to deliberate on the Greek question. it
has been made a matter of discussion at London, whether the
acknowledgment of the Greek State .hould proceed immediately
from the three Powers, and the Porte only assent to it, as by the
Treaty of Adrianople ; or whether the emancipation of Greece
should be declared by the Sultan, and approved by the Powers.—
The latter has been deemed more conformable to established go in-
elple, and negotiations are pending with the Porte on this point, on
which the mode and time of the recognition of Greece depend ; but
considering the hesitation of the Porte, they will probably
'protracted, unless the Russian Cabinet should take up the :twit-
seriously, and express to the Porte its wish for a speedy decision-
s which cue the Sultan, who bas frequently expressed bb
.esteem
* the Emperor of Russia, would probably put an end to the bole -
&ion of his Ministers. The sending of Hall! Neb.* to Se. Peter..
burgh still hinders Count Orloff from opening his negoclation with
the Kite, and the Reis Effendi is new sensible that he was ton
hasty in sending that embassy, as it seems doubtful whether
the discussion respecting the execution of the Treaty may
sot be opened at Saint Pereribur;h rather than here, which
would not be advantageous for the Porte. The Foreign Min-
ters have given several fetes iv honour of Count Orloff. There
is a frequent exchange of dispatches between Smyrna rind die IV.
Man Islands, and a conspiracy is spoken of as having been disco•
oared hi these Islands; Let this seems quite larpreimble, for we do
Set bear that any per..., have been arrested. Adrianople Is, to he
Menterted into a fortress of die ant rank, as the late tanapsignias
Moved its Importance. Russian officers frequently come hither,
in reeve from the head-quarters at Borges.

TO ERNESTINE.

IT DANIEL SZLIISIIIIITI.

Sup, ufp as Elet End!
Sweet is life, my Ernestine !
In the od'rous myrtle grove,
In the arms of holy love,
In Dione's, or in thine.
Sweet is life, my Ernestine !
Some may fear lest wind and wave
Delve for all their wealth a grave ;
Some may heap Golconda's store;
Ever adding more to more ;
Warriors climb the slippery hill
Crown'd by glory's citadel ;
Welcoming the Pesos loud
Victory wakens from the crowd ;
But, with thee, my Ernestine,
Yes! with thee to live be mine.
Silenced every worldly tone,
0 how sweet to live alone !
Seeing—wishing not to see
Aught but those bright miles of thine ;
Thee, my love—and only thee—
Hearing nought but thy soft breathing.
Or thy gentle rustling, wreathing
Little Sowers of love for me.

POETRY OF THE MAGYARS.

BY JOHN BOWEING, ESQ.

This is another garland, gathered from one of those
insulated regions of intellect, hitherto unvisited by the
strayinirs of cultivated genius—almost inaccessible, in-
deed, to all but enthusiastic explorers —where high
aspirations and fine sensibilities make their paradise
in unheard-of bosoms, and poetry grows wild in its fast-I
nesses, like a . violet upon one of the ledges of the
Jungfrau. The Magyar, or the old Hungarian, lan-
guage, which has been for many centuries in a state of
decadence—at times almost verging to obliteration—is at
lest exhibiting symptoms of revival and renovation.
Our accomplished and ardent-minded countryman, Joint
BOWRIN —who will be known to posterity as the KING
of AN lioLoo lave, inasmuch as he is not only a collector
of all exotic flowers, but a great improver of them when
collected—has transplanted this one more beautiful
bouquet from the hortus incognitus of Hungarian poesy
into the gardens of English literature. Wo need not say
that it adds one more, to the many titles by which he
already lays claim to the gratitude of his country. We
can only give to-day his very beetiful introductory sonnet,
to SCHEDEL, and two small extracts—ad aperturam
libri—but we shall return to his volume.

TO FR. J. SCHF.DEL.
I follow in thy footsteps, yet afar ;
Thou bear'st!he voice—l but the echoes bear,

Of the time-consecrated Magyar;
And while they vibrate In my spirit, bear
The music, ere it dies upon the ear,
To the old halls of England—where there are
Spirits of love, of sympathy sincere,
To welcome, as frum some new-beaming star.
All I can bring of beauty, light, and song.
Say to Hongaria, she shall stand among
The lands which Poetry with glory girds ;
And If not mine, some happier lot 'twill be
To Sing the wreath of fame o'er her and thee.
With sweeter harmony and loftier words.

LIMERICK ELECTION.

Thursday, Quarter to Three o'clock.
The polling throughout to-day has been rather languid
in some of the booths. Still in most of them Colonel
O'Grady maintains his majority of last night. There was
considerable delay after the polling bad closed last even-
ing, before the High Sheriff announced its state as
follows :

WRONEIDAY.
For Colonel O'Grady on the gross p 011.... 53s
For Mr. Many Dawson
Majority ..
The poll is of course not officially declared at this hour;
but I have been through the several booths, and have as-
certained how it stands at this moment—

Thursday, Half-past Two.
. O'Grady
Dawson ... •

-43
Gross majority la favour of O'Grady... 7s
The general opinion here is, that the Election will not
terminate so early as was at first anticipated, but that it
will extend into next week. There have been several
riots throughout the streets, but none of them attended
with serious consequences. A mob attacked and beat
Mr. DAWSON in the street, near the Court-house last
evening, and but for the interference of some of Colonel
O'GILA DY'll agents, who snatched bim from the hands
of his assailants, he would have been seriously injured.
The most notorious bribery is practised on both sides—
the price of a vote is fixed at 10/. and it is expected that
their value will improve with their scarcity.—Dublin
Paper of Saturday.

The representation at the Opera at Paris, on the night
of the 24th ult. for the benefit of the poor, constitutes an
era in the annals of the theatre and of luxury. There
never was a more complete union of talents—a more
dazzling audience. The aristocratic and commercial
' worlds were represented there by their most splendid
principals. The Kix°, the Royal Family, and the
Duke of OALZANS, assisted at this brilliant act of bene-
ficence, which produced a receipt of 60,000 fr. His

Information was given at this Office, that the premises of Mr.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

An individual of highly respectable exterior was charged with
receiving stolen plate. The prosecutor was a Mr. Henry Kerman,
whose son, a lad about twelve years of age, broke open his plate
chest, and stole a portion of the contents which he and another
buy, nand Piano, afterwards disposed of to the prisoner at
the rate of thirteen pence per spoon. Mr. Kemman's son, on being
taken into custody, confessed all the circumstances ; and the pri-
soner, who attended as a witness against young Kenan, was re-
manded, with the latter, until Tuesday, having in his defence pro-
tested that he had given the boy 7s. fur three silver spooria.

in the treaty so often referred to, but in the marriage Treaty of ICCI,
to which these institutions of the Court of Portugal are so expressly
contrary that we conceive they will at once put the question beyond
dispute.
The 11th Article of the Treaty of 1654 stipulates a right to English
subjects to "trade and traffic freely and safely from Portugal to Brazil,
and the other conquests of the King of Portugal in the West Indies,
and from Brazil and the said conquests to Portugal, as also to the de.
minions of the said King in the East Indies, Guinea, the Island of S.
Thomas, and elsewhere on the coasts and shores."

4 PEW WORDS ON BEARDS.

" He that bath aboard is more than a youth, and he that hath no
beard is less than a man."—Sakisircsas.
During the early ages of the Commonwealth, the Romans allowed
their hair and beards to pow, merely clipping them occasionally, as
washy required., The custom of shaving was not introduced till about
the year of the city 464, when one P. T. Manes first brought barbers
from Sicily. See Lure, v. 41. PLUM, vii. 59. The beard was kept
close shaved until the time of Hadrian, who, to hide some exclemenees

on his chin, revived the habit of wearing the beard; this custom, how.
ever, soon fell Into disuetude, and was newer afterwards resorted to, n.
cept in time of mourning. See tirsaytax. Adrian, 26, Ltvir, vi. 16,
SUET. Jul. 67—Ars. 23—Cal. 24.

The Greeks, on the contrary, in grief, cut their hair and shaved their
beard. bee fizaritca. Bose. v. G., PLUTARCH. ix Pelopid. ei Ales.

The day on which young men first began to shave was held as a fes-
tival, and presents were sent to them by their friends. See Jo•ZXAL,
iii.lB7, MARTIAL. iii. 6.

The fint clippings of the beard were preserved with much care, and
conaecnued to some divinity. See Per mow. N.
Thus Nero " shaved his beard for the first time, and putting it up
in a golden box, adorned wich pearls of great price, he consecrated it to

TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR.

Ern—At this moment of pinching distress—enhanced
and rendered doubly severe by the severities of the
season—the pitious appeals of the houseless and wretched,
who daily and nightly perambulate our streets, are suffi-
cient to wring with anguish the heart of the benevolent
and humane. Permit me, Sir, to avail myself of the
instrumentality of your patriotic journal, to suggest a
very simple, but I am persuaded, a very substantial and
charitable meaeure, for the adoption of his Majesty's Go-
vernment. It is, then, simply this : let them direct the
Master of the Mint to coin forthwith a large quantity of
silver twopenny, or threepenny pieces. What then ? you
will say ; and how is this to relieve the cravings of
hunger and want ? Why, Sir, it will assuredly do so
for this reason—Gentlemen do not and will sot carry
coppers in their pockets ; and the charitably disposed man,
who, in the course of his night's walk through the
streets of this metropolis, may be astiiiled by the plaintive
cries of the hylf-naked and starring, feels a reluctance to
give to each successive claimant, his shilling or his six-
pence, when I am thoroughly persuaded he would never
refuse the silver twopence or threepence. It may per-
haps be said, that many a poor man, who now catches a
shilling from a charitable passer-by, would, in the sup-
posed case of the issue of this smaller coin, receive but
the sixth or the fourth part of his usual Jaigesse; but it is
better that many should in this season of severe distress
receive nightly some pittance from the humane, than that
a limited number should be benetitted to an extent which
interferes with the useful and satisfactory disposition of
eleemosynary applications.

be looked for.

But I will hope to be considered a worthy member of
your Uxiow, under a different point of view. If I can-
not pay in purse, I will endeavour to do so in Ailed; and I
have the pleasure to assure you, that I am now pre-
pared to introduce a Bill into the House—falsely called
the Commons' House—which is so constructed as to meet
every single point you dwell on in the report of your
speech.
I am sensible that all such attempts may be styled
" delusions"—and so they have ever proved ; and have,
I believe, been intended to be in the hands of their for-
mer advocates ; but it is my firm conviction that regener-
ation is fated to proceed from another quarter.
Be it as it may, we must all do our utmost in our re-
spective spheres.
I have the honour to be, Sir, &c.
