LONDON,
TUESDAY EVENING, JANUARY 20, 1829.

We direct the earnest attention of our readers
to the report of the sufferings of the poor
fishermen at Queenborough. Their case is
really a most distressing one ; and hard indeed
must be that heart to whose generous sympathies
it does not most successfully appeal. Most
earnestly do we trust that Parliament will be in-
duced to interfere, and see an ample measure
awarded of justice to the starving victims of
oly.

It is confidently reported that the Marquis O
SALISBURY is to be, the new Lord Lieutenant
of Ireland.

The Devon Anti-Catholic Meeting—the term
Brunswick, as we observed some time since,
seems already exploded—which took place on
Friday last, at Exeter, was remarkable for the in-
genious turbulence of the No-Popery men, and
the high-minded, but somewhat too chivalrous
moderation of the Liberals. It was, in fact, a
second edition of the Penenden-heath Meeting.
The same earnestness, the same desperate
conviction of a bad cause characterised the
conduct of the Brunswickers, who had re-

course to every stratagem, however unworthy,
that might lend them an air of triumph, while
the Liberals trusted almost exclusively to the
moral and intellectual justice of their auditors.
The former, with a modesty highly creditable to
their discernment, were well aware of their own
mental deficiencies, so came prepared with a long
array of brute force to back them ; the latter essay-
ed no arts but those of argument, good feeling, and
intelligence. The result, tVerefore, was precisely
what might have been anticipated. The triumph
of noise and trickery was with the Brunswickers,
that of reason and charity with the Liberals.

The high honour of opening the cause of
" No Popery," was assigned to Mr. FURSDOW,
and seldom has the mantle of bigotry fallen upon
worthier shoulders. Like my Lord WINCHIL-
SEA at Penenden Heath, he began by deprecat-
ing say hostile feeling towards the Catholics—
an assertion which he followed up with con-
sistent ingenuity, by distorting their religious and
political tenets through two-thirds of a column in
the Western Times. He had also the assurance
to observe—and the observation, if we could
forget the trifling circumstance of its utter falsity,
has really an imposing character—that " it was
probable at that moment that Ireland was in a
state of civil war;' and closed his phillippie by
reading- a petition, in which it was stated that
the Papists enjoyed " the most unlimited reli-
gious toleration." Unlimited religious tolera-
tion ! ! What is it, then, that has made the Ca-
tholic a slave in his own country ? What is it
that has made. him a raria a crea-
ture of degraded caste, to whom justice is a
luxury to be denied ? What—but it is idle to
continue, the question scarcely deserves an answer.
The speech of Lord M°R t. EY, who followed
in the wake of Mr. FURSDON, was full of rich
materials for reflection ; it abounded in reason,
good feeling, and liberality, put forth in a calm
philosophical manner, that was of course caviare
to the Brunswickers. Had they indeed been

CORN RETURNS.

(From the Liverpool Albion of Monday-)
Sir,—The public at large, and the Iti.h corn merchants
in particular, I have no doubt, will feel much obligati
to you for bringing into notice the great deficiency in
the returns of corn which govern its importation frum
abroad.

The question you have started is one of very great import-
ance to the country, and I hope the result will be an alte-
ration in the law, which may be easily effected, is unob-
jectionable, will be efficacious, and du justice to the growers,
the trade, and the public.
Your observations, although perfectly applicable to Liver-
pool, will, however, equally apply to the whole of Lanca-
shire, and, I have little doubf, are equally applicable to the
returns throughout the kingdom. To show that would
be too voluminous, but it may be seen upon reference to
the Gazette. In justice, however, to our own town, I
would refer to the following statement, exhibiting the re-
turns for all Lancashire, and the imports of wheat in Li-
verpool from Ireland and coastwise during nine weeks :
London, England, 1829-03-12

WORCESTER, MARCH 10.

Mr. Henry Sparrow, a young man of highly respectable
appearance, was indicted for wounding Mr. George Cattle
Greenway, with intent to murder him.
As soon as the Grand Jury had found the bill, Mr.
Sparrow surrendered to take his trial, not having been
pre►iously in custody.

Mr. Sergeant 111;ssaLL and Mr. WHITCOMER conducted
the prosecution ; Mr. JERVIS (the King's Counsel) and
Mr. RICHARDS the defence.

Mr. George Cattle Greenway said—l am a solicitor at
Warwick, and one of the Coroners for that county. My
mother, Mrs. Greenway, and my uncle, Mr. Woodcock,
are the owners of a clay-mine near Stourbridge. The pri-
soner rented this mine, and made fire-bricks from it, pay-
ing a rent proportioned to the quantity of clay that was
raised. It was his duty to render an aecount to Mrs.
Green way and Mr. Woodcock. I was directed by them to
inspect these accounts, and I had called at the prisoner's
house several times fur that purpose. The last time of my
going was about half-part nine o'clock on the evening of
the llth of November. I was shown into the parlour,
where he was sitting with Mrs. Sparrow (his wife) and
Mr. Thomas (his clerk). The man-servant announced my
name, and the prisoner, in a rough voice, said, " let him
come in." I entered the room, and he said in the same
tone, " take a chair. I sat down and told him I wished
him to appoint a time for me to see the books. The pri-
soner replied, " Mr. Greenway, your conduct in this busi-
ness disgusts me. I consider it dirty, interfering, and un-
dermining." Some further conversation took place about
the books, when, as the prisoner would not show them, I
rose to depart. Upon this the prisoner paid, " yea are
drunk, Sir ; you are drunk, Sir." I replied, "it is Mae,
Sparrow ; you know 'tie a lie. I know that you have been
sued, and have had 20 applications made you for money."
The prisoner said, " Francis Ruffoid, you mean." I said,
" no matter who I mean, 'tie true ; and, besides that, I
have heard of your conduct with regard to your father, and
you are at Worcester, and at Birmingham, and not to be
found." The prisoner thee said, in a very cool manner,
"no one shall tell me I lie with impunity," and reached out
towards the poker. I got to the fire as soon as I could,
and our hands came upon the firs-irons about the same time.
The Jury retired, and, after being absent more than three
hours, pronounced the prisoner—Not Guilty.

THE PORTSMOUTH MURDERS.
London, England, 1829-03-12

BO W-STREET.

Mr. Goldsmid, of Finsbury-square, was yesterday sum-
moned before Mr. MINSHULL, by William Woodland,
driver of the cabriolet No. 120, for damage done to
his vehicle by the negligent conduct of the defendant's
coachman.

Mr. MINSUL'LL having heard a geard a great deal of
Lard swearing pro and con., dismissed the summons, leav-
ing the owner of the cabriolet to his remedy by action, a
course which the owner declared he should most certainly

pursue.

A poor old man in the garb of a sailor was charged by
a patrol with having been found knocking and ringing in
a violent manner at the street-door of the Right Hon.
Robert Peel's residence in Privy-gardens.
Mr. MtNsiturt. asked the defendant, what he wanted
with Mr. Peel, and why he persisted in creating a disturb-
ance at his doer ?—" I wanted money that is due to me,"
said the defendant. "I had a claim upon Government for
1501., and 20 years ago Lord Sidmouth, who then held
the same situation which Mr. Peal now holds, gave me
20/. on account, and told tne to call at the Home-office in
20 years time, and I should be paid the balance. This
was in March, 1309, just 20 years ago ; and so I travel-
led up from Harwich to get the 1301. which is due to me.
I slept at Rumford last night, and was in London betimes
this morning."
" Have you ever been in a lunatic asylum ?" asked the
Magistrate. " Yes," replied the defendant, " but was
discharged from thence by permission of Lord Sidmouth.
The 20 years that I was to wait for my money have now
gone by, and so I have come to claim it."
Mr. Al t:strum. declared his belief that the poor man
was insane, and 'had worked up his mind to the belief
that money was due to him by Government. The best
thing that could be done with him was to order him to be
received into some asylum for insane persons.

THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY).

CORN EXCHANGE.

The supplies of Grain and Flour this week are mode-
rate. The weather being now very fine, has occasioned
our buyers to cease making purchases, and there has been
in consequence a very dull trade to-day, but we cannot
quote any article lower than on Monday, as the factors
are not yet willing to give way. The trade for the best
Flour is free at late prices, but other qualities meet a
slack demand.

ADRIANOPLE.

Adrianople, called by the Turks and Arals
Adranah, or Edraneh, is situated on the Ma-
rizza (anciently the Hebrus), in the government
of Romania or Rumelia, about 130 miles north-
west of Constantinople. In ancient times it
was the capital of a people called the Bessi, a
Thracian tribe, and bore the name of Uskadama..
That of Adrianople is received from the Empe-
ror Adrian, who was its second founder. The
Turks made themselves masters of this city in
1360; and it continued to be the seat of their
empire for nearly a century, that is, until the
taking of Constantinople by Mohammed in
1453. Adrianople is a place of considerable
magnitude, being nearly nine miles in circumfe-
rence, and is pleasantly situated, in a fruitful
plain, surrounded by gently sloping grounds;
but the climate is by no means salubrious.
Among the most remarkable edifices are the pa-
lace of the Sultans, the great repository for fo-
reign goods, and the mosques, which are nume-
rous. Of these the mosque of Sultan Selim is
by far the most splendid. The city abounds
with booths and retail shops, stored with mer-
chandize of all descriptions ; and, even under the
Turks, barbarous as they are, it was the entrepot
of a considerable commerce. The I\'larizza,
which is navigable to its embouchure near Enos
in the Archipelago, promotes materially both
foreign and inland trade: and it will now, pro-
bably, become a channel of communication by
small craft between the Russian army under
Diebitsch and the Russian fleet in the Mediter-
ranean. The principal merchants here, as else-
where in Turkey, are Greeks, Armenians, and
Jews ; but the town also inhabited by Walla-
chians, Turks, and a variety of other races. The
most important branch of commerce consists in
the wine and fruit raised in the adjacent country.
Adrianople has all along been a favourite retreat
of the Sultans, who resorted. to it for different
reasons ; at one time for pleasure, at another to
avoid the plague, and occasionally as a refuge
from a political commotion in the capital. But
the tide of war has now rolled the victorious
Muscovites to this long cherished abode of
oriental ease, luxury, and magnificence ; and at
the moment when we write, the Cossacks of the
Don and the Wolga, or some barbarians from
the Caucasus, the Caspian, or the White Sea,
are probably established in the Eski-Serai of
Mahmoud, and staring in idiot wonder at the
splendour which that favourite residence displays.
The idol of iron and clay is fast falling to pieces.

WORSHIP-STREET.

A pale-faced, red-baked youth, charged Mrs.
Brooks,to
wliom he was apprenticed, with an as-
sault. The case excited much merriment from the
1ac1..-a-daiical mariner in which the boy detailed the
circumstances, and from the bustling anxiety of his
father to impress on the Magistrates the importance
of the charge.
" Now, Billy," said the father, " blow your nose,
and tell his Worship."
Billy then stated—After I'd eat my dinner on
Saturday, I went and fetched some cat's meat on a

skewer. My mistress says, "take it into the coal-
hole ;" and I took it into the coal-hole. When I
got it there, she told me to pull it off the skewer, and
because I didn't, mistress blow'd me up.
" Why, I thought she assaulted you," said Mr.
WA Lk. R

" Oh," said the father, " wait, your Worship,
" the most serious part is to come. She actually
struck Billy a most violent blow on the head, which
knocked over a sarspan of water, which was biting
on the fire. The truth is, my son has not strength
in his nerves."

Mrs. Brooks here interposed, and assured the Ma-
gistrate that although Billy appeared so simple be-
fore them, yet he had the gift of a saucy tongue. I
admit boxing his ears for his impudence; upon which
he chose to leave my business and go home to his
father. Ile came back a day or two after, with his
Either, and I then told him that, as he had stopped
away for his own pleasure, he should now keep
away for mine; and I refused to let him enter.
" Yes, your Worship," said the. father, " and all
this crier I paid 201. premium, and bound him seven
years to learn hair-dressing►.
The MAGISTRATE said that the business was too
foolish to be further proceeded with ; and dismissed
the case.

A desperate ruffian, named John Carney, was
charged with a number of assaults.
The watchman stated that this man was the terror
of that sink of iniquity, George-yard. He was
known as a notorious thief, and had been convicted
at. the Old Bailey.
The prisoner's denial of being a thief deserves
some notice for its candour :

" Vy, I own I vas a thief vonce—but now I gets
my living in suite another different sort o'vay.
" how is that ?" asked Mr. WALKER—" Vy, if
I must tell the truth, I gets it by brandy smuggling."
" Why that's very like thieving," returned the
Magistrate.—" Yes, but your Vership knows," said
Carney, with a knowing grin, " that its not trans-
portable."
He was sentenced to two months' imprisonment ;
and a female, with whom he cohabited, to one month.

RUDIMENTS of GEOGRAPHY, on a
New Plan, designed to assist the Memory by Com-
p triton and Classification.
By W. C. WOODBRIDGE, A.M.
The Geography is accompanied by an ATLAS, exhi-
biting, in connection with the Outlines of Countries, the
prevailing Religions, Forms of Government, degrees of
Civilization, the comparative size of Towns, Rivers, and
Mountains; and the Climates and Productions of the
Earth, in royal 4to. coloured, price Ss. half-bound.
This Atlas has been compiled from the best Authori-
ties, and contains all the late Discoveries of Palry, Wed-
dell, Denham, and Clapperton. But its principal claim
to attention is founded on the entire novelty of the plan :
each Map presents not only the Geographical Outlines of
Countries, hut a series of numbers affixed to the Moult-
tains, Rivers, and Cities, which indicate their comparative
rank, and enables the Student, by reference to the Table of
Classification, to discover their actual magnitude. The
Isothermal Chart exhibits the Climate of different Regions,
as determined by Thermometrical Observation, with their
most important productions, and presents a striking illus-
tration of the diversity existing in the same Latitudes ac-
cortliag to the situation of Countries.
In the Moral and Political Chart, the outlines of each,
country contain a number, showing its population, and
several emblems indicating its Government, Religion, and
State of Civilization, and forms, in eiicct, a Moral Picture
of the World. _

MARYLEBONE.

Mr. Church, of Shouldham-street, Marylebone.
was charged by Johnson, the informer, with selling
exciseable liquors, and permitting them to be drank
upon his premises, contrary to the statute.
A witness of the informer, named Brookes, stated
that on the evening of Monday, the 14th of this
month, he was served by Mrs. Church with half a
pint of cider, and he drank it upon a stone leading
to the door, and covering part of the area, and she
made no objection.
Mr. HOSKINS did not think it right to examine
Mrs. Church upon oath, but he heard her statement.
Brookes had been pointed out to her by her hus-
band as an informer two months ago. She bad
since seen him in this office, and was so well acquainted
with his face, that she should know him under any
disguise. She was certain iti!;e did Hot serve him
with cider as above, stated, for she had made up
her mind never to serve him at all.

Johnson said Mrs. Church might, after all be de-
ceived, and he requested that both his witnesses
might be examined separately ; and it appeared that
with a foul-weather coat on his back, and a large
shawl over his chin and mouth, Brookes assumed
the appearance of a wstchrnan.
Mr. Church's solicitor said, if Mr. Hoskins would
permit it, he would bring respectable witnesses to
show that Brookes was not worthy of credit. In a
former case he had sworn that he was served by
s. Church between seven and eight o'clock in the
evening of the 11th of September, and when that
was heard, not knowing what might be advanced,
they were unprepared with evidence to contradict it,
but now they could do it effectually.
Mr. and Mrs. Bolton, of South Lambeth, swore,
that on the I Ith of September, Mrs. Church was in
their company on the other side of the river, from
two o'clock in the afternoon until nine o'clock at
night ; and a lady visiting at Mr. Church's house in
Shouldham-street, stated that Mrs. Church was
,absent that day from one o'clock, or a little after,
till past ten at night.
After hearing these contradictions, Mr. HOSKINS
said he found himself in a situation most unpleasant.
Ultimately he said the case was not proved to his
satisfaction, and dismissed it.

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

FRENC PAPERS.
(From the onstitutionnel.)
The Monitettr of to-day contains the following
article:

There is no sort of calumny which the Journals
have not heaped upon the Ministry. According to
some it is upon corruption that it founds its hopes;
it has from 24,000,000 to 30,000,000 to expend;
it knows the price of consciences, and it has di-
rected an inquiry to be made into the fortune of
each deputy. According to others, it calls for fo-
reign intervention; it is going to create 200 Depu-
ties by ordinance, and to leave their nomination in
the hands of the departmental Councils-General.—
If we were to bel!eve them, the Ministry dreams only
of State blows, and premeditates nothing but the
overthrow of the Charter: it will forcibly exact
the impost, if the Chamber, exercising its right,
should refuse the Budget; and from thence they
argue the necessity of acting in concert, of creating
ties, and of federating, in order to oppose legal re-
sistance to this plot.
The intention is evident, and the public reason
cannot be mistaken about it. The cry of alarm
does not proceed from conviction ; these terrors are
counterfeit, and those who propagate them know well,
unless they have been deprived of common sense,
that the Ministers could not even have conceived
the idea of violating the charter and of substituting
ordinances for the law. They know that the Mi-
nisters would in vain endeavour to do so, and that
if they dared to manifest such a plan, the King
would in an instant reduce them to impotence, by
withdrawing from them the power which he only
confided to them in his name and upon their re-
sponsibility. The reports, the fears, the defamations,
with which the periodical press of France has been
inundated, have alone in view agitation, by abun-
dantly sowing hatred, irritation, and disorder, over
the whole surface of the country. It is a web—the
first trial shows the plan, the end, and the means
of it.
London, England, 1829-09-23

CARRON IRON WORKS.

It is gratifying to be able to state that the ex-
tensive iron works at Carron are feeling none of
the general depression which at present pervades
the manufacturing districts. Upwards of five
months ago they received an order for field-
pieces, and, though they have since been making
at the rate of nearly twenty a week, the requisite
number is not nearly completed. Terrible as
these " mortal engines" are, those the Carron
Company are at present finishing seem intended
to be doubly destructive. Some idea may he
formed of their size from the simple fact, that
when completely ready for use they weigh each
fully three tons. A number of howitzers are
also in preparation, and, instead of the usual
length, from three to four feet, they run from
eight to nine, and are intended to throw shells
far beyond the usual distance. Some time since
am English foundery received an order for ord-•
nance of the same description ; a few of the first
made were tested in the usual way by a foreign
engineer, and it is said that he was not satisfied,
-and transferred the order to tl e Carroll Com-
pany. At any rate, an engineer, accompanied
by an interpreter, lately visited Carron, for the
purpose of examining these guns. After the
usual tests, they were tried by one quite new to
the workmen, and the scientific gentleman de-
clared he was highly satisfied, and ordered the
work to be completed with all possible despatch.
The demand for loom goods is still on the in-
crease. The Company have now four blast
furnaces going, making pig-iron from the raw
material, and four cupulos in full activity, arid
the goods ready finished for the market run on
average
ah about 300 tons a-week. The Com-
pany " grow" their own workers, as an exten-
sive manufacturer has it, and hence their hands
are completely masters of their several depart-
ments. They pay no attention to the fluctua-
tions of the markets and the currency ; hard as
the times arc, they have never mentioned a re-
duction of the wages,—they have more huma-
nity and sagacity than to attempt to extract the
last drop of sweat from the poor workmen, and
reduce them to the last ounce of oatmeal ; and,
consequently, all who are so fortunate as to be
in their employment are comfortable and con-
tented, and take a conscientious interest in the
welfare of the concern.
