The Duke of WELLINGTON made a few observations, which
were for the greater part inaudible at the Bar. We un-
derstood him to express the opinion that such an assemblage
was illegal, and that the example of admitting indiscriminately
raestly.because they had made application for that purpose. to the pre.
re-
sow of the sovereign, was most dangerous, and since it could not be re-
gularly or frequently followed, calculated In the end to produce dis-
satisfaction.— l'he motion was then agreed to.

CONSOLIDATED FUNDrSUIIPLUS DILL.
The bill was read a second time on the motion of Lord AUCKLAND,
eommitted pro forseq, and ordered to be read a third time to-morrow.—

Sir J. NEWPORT presented a petition from St. John's, Water.

FIVE HUNDRED POUNDS REWARD.—" There
is a newly-invented Patent Recumbent Chair, by Mr. PAWS,
of 17, Margaret-street, Cavendish-square, London, which it
.is but
justice to a most ingenious man, to Introduce to the particular' notice
of our readers. The King, we hear, has them, and certainly the in-
firm, the sedentary, and Ladles whose temporary burthen may dis-
pose them to a little additional repose, have never before lounged on a
cleverer piece of workmanship; it is handsome and compact, and the
contrivance is so simple, that the required position is attained by the
slightest movements possible."—Raaminer.
61 Possessing these advantages, it is not comparadvely dower than a
common easy ehair."—Times.

The chair alluded to will form near 20 positions. The principle and
name were the invention of R. Daws, the patentee, and such is the high
approbation and patronage he has gratefully to acknowledge, and so
well Is the perfection of it attested and approved, that where an easy
chair or couch is desirable or necessary, it will take precedence as a
much more comfortable and elegant supply for both. There are many
imitations which are called improved recumbent chairs, but lt. Dews
Gan have no need to say they are deceptions or dangerous, since he has
for three years part, and still continues to offer £6OO for the production
of the kind which a majority of competent judges will pronounce more
perfect, and for which his signature may be had on application. Some
ars admirably portable. One shall be sent for inspection by favour of
a reference, and payment of e or at the rate of 10s. per. 100
miles; he warrants his principle years.

OLXEY, DEC. &—I regret to info= you that we have had a fire at
Olney, on Thursday evening. It commenced very soon after 6w:et:lock
in the evening. It was a cow-house, with a great deal of straw in it,
and two cottages thatched adjoining. The roofs were completely con-
sumed. The building was just at the back of my premises, end 1 very
promptly got the engines to work. The wheat straw that was in the
cow.house burnt most furiously, and the wind was rather high, which
blew the sparks to an immense distance.

OXFORDSHIRE.
OXFORD, DEC. 6.—We are becoming more alarmed for the safety
of property than ever. On Friday night there was an incendiary Ire at
Denton, about five miles from Oxford, between the Henley and Wick-
ham Roads. There was much property in danger, but it was discovered
early. and put out by the villagers, without the assistance of engines.
but not without the loss of a great part of a bay-rick. I am not aware
if this property was insured. And last night, about eight, our city was
alarmed by a fire in the direction of Evesham, on the Cheltenham road.
Engines were immediately put in motion, and it proved to be near Cum-
ner, Berke, a small village on the left. The fire commenced at a small
straw rick, adjoining to which were a eat-house and barn, which ors-
tained all the corn the farmer had. The whole was entirely consernet.
The house adjoining was saved. He was one of those small laberaliag
farmers occupying sanely more land than he himself could minor r
and I don't know where the excitement could be to destroy his property.
He is uninsured. The buildings which be occupies belong to the Earl
of Abingdon.
DKDDINGTOW, Dac. 3.—1 am sem to tell you there has been
another incendiary fire, which happened last night, on some farming
stock, on the premises of Mr. Lovedren, at Hempton. A large barn,
stable, and hovel, together with, I believe, a large barley tick, a mow
of barley, and about twelve quarters of barley thrashed, a bean rick, an
oat rick, and a waggon, are consumed. The buildings are not insured,
but the farming stock is.

LONDON.
THURSDAY. DECEMBER 9.

This afternoon, at three o'clock, a Cabinet Council
asiosabled in the Foreign Office, which was attended by
the LORD CHANCELLOR, Earl GEM, the Marquis of
Lissnow NE, Lord DURHAM, Viscount MELBOURNE,
Viscount PALMERSTON, Viscount GODERICII, the Earl of
CARLISLE, Viscount ALTHOUP, the Right Hon. C.
GRANT, and the Duke of RICHMOND. The Council sat
in deliberation about two hours.

Another maniac or incendiary has been taken into custody
this morning. He was flourishing about, a loaded pistol in
his band, in the Broadway, Westminster, to the great
terror of the passers by, who fled from him in every
direction. A polioeman bad the courage to approach
him, when the villain fired at him, the ball grazing the
policemen's shoulder. He was however taken into custody
and sent to the watch-house, where two loaded pistols
were found in his possession.

Private letters from Germany, received this morning,
bring accounts of a revolution at Hanau—a town belonging
to Hesse Camel. It appears to have been accomplished,
oa the very same principle as that of Paris. The streets
were barricedoed, and stones thrown from the windows on
the troops, who were obliged to retire, and the inhabitants
remained in possession of the town. There has also been
some disturbances at Frankfort amongst the Brewers, who
were determined not to suffer any other Beer to be
drank in the above town than their own.

There are no other continental arrivals of any come-
(pence. A report prevails that the Klee of HOLLAW D has
declined to negociate on the terms proposed by the Belgians;
and that the ColllelilliloMll. CASTWRIGIST and BRISSON,
have returned from the Hague to Broom's; but this rumour
requires oonirmation.
The Canada New York PasketShip has arrived from New
Yolk, with most important intelligeeco from Colombia.

CAVALRY AND INFANTRY PAY.

It will be seen that the increase of pay has been greater in the infantry
than the cavalry, greater in the lower ranks of Akers than in the upper,
and greatest of all in the privates of the foot miaow. In 1792, the
private's pay in die infantry was sispmm per day, and now it is one
shilling. By a regulation established in 1806, a private in a cavalry
regiment was allowed an addition to his pay of a penny after ten years'
service, and twopence after seventeen years' service. The infantry pri-
vates were allowed one penny after seven, and twopence after fourteen
years' service. At present the twopence is retained after seventeen and
fourteen years' respectively, in the two descriptions of force t but the
one penny after ten or seven years ceased, by a new regulation in 1822,
for all soldiers enlisted after that time.

"My Dear bir,-31any thanks for your very kind letter. lam
aware how industriously the calumnies to which you refer have been
circulated by malevolence, and I ant equally aware that in many in-
stances they have unwittingly been received as truth.
" I never was in the Jacobin Club but once in my life. I went there
as a spectator, and in company with the late ➢lr. ♦Windham, and the late
Lord Chichester, who were about as good Jacobins as myself.
" The club was an object of curiosity to foreigners ; and, in the in-
dulgence of that curiosity we went to one sitting, as we might have gone
to a bull-fight in Spain. roila tout. But every man who aspires to
distinction in public life, must lay his account to be assailed with such
unfair weapons.—Yours, very sincerely,

ROGUERY TAUGHT BY CONFESSION.

BT PETER MBAR, JUN.
A pious ostler, who did much repent
Of all his sins—and they were not a few—
Resolved one day to give his conscience vent,
And get his wicked soul whitewashed anew.
So rose betimes next morn, and quickly knelt
Before a goodly priest with shaven crown,
One who—although he ins village dwelt—
Had stills taste for all the tricks of town.
To him a free confession scon he made,
And boldly vowed be ne'er would aim again ;
Hoping the holy sire would lend his aid,
From his polluted soul to wipe the stain.
" Son l" cried the Monk, " although thy crimes are grog,
Enough to damn thy wretched, sinful soul,
Too much I fear there's one you do not state,
And I, ere you're absolved, must hear the whole.
" Say, by our Lady, did you ne'er beneath
The manger, keep some tallow in a horn
And did you never grease a horse's teeth,
To hinder him from surfeiting on corn ?"
" No, Father I no," he cried ; " I'm not involved
In such a crime ; indeed, I've named the whole."—.
So then the Priest his load of sin absolved,
And home the Ostler steered with whitewashed soul.
Just six months after this, the Ostler came
Again before the Friar to confess;
Acknowledging with penitential shame,
His greasing horses teeth with great success.
" Oh, wicked Son !" the holy Father cried—
" Did you not tell me, when I saw you last,
That you had never in your life applied
Grease to a horse's teeth, to make him fast ?"
" Yes, holy, Sir, I did, and then spoke true !"
Replied the man of straw, with utterance quick
" For, though it may seem rather strange to you,
/ never thew Aad heard of such a trick !'

IN THE MORNING OF LIFE, when the blandish-
emu of passion " take the reason prisoner," it is an 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 his mental as well as bodily powers. To all persons so circum-
stanced as to require the professional aid of men of experience, whose
time has been for twenty years studiously and successfully devoted to
the complaints arising from nervous debility, whether natural ;or
acquired, 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 folly will too readily comprehend without
further description may find relief from his misery, and be kindly
taught to regain his lost place in the scale of creation. The sufferer
who, from another extreme of indulgenc has, with unbashful forehead,
wooed debility, may learn to renovate nature and repair his abused
constitution. The man of pleasure exposed to and suffering from
Lues Venerea, however aggravated by malpractice of the quack, or
the concealment from diffidence, may find certain restoraation ; and
finally in cases where the delay of a connubial pledge has almost ex-
tended disappointment to dispair, they offer to the married female
those hopes which she can reasonably appreciate.
Messrs. GOSS and Co. are to be consulted, as usual, every day, at
their house ; and Patients in the remotest parts of the Country can be
treated successfully, on describing minutely the case, and enclosing
a remittance for Advice and Medicine. No difficulty can occur, as
the Medicine will be securely packed, and carefully protected from
observation.

MAYENCE, JAN. I.
Yesterday evening the Very Reverend M. AI. Burg, newly-
App.inted Bishop for the diocese of 'Alayenee, arrived lu this city,
and proceeded to the Episcopal Palace, which was prepared for his
reception. Th. tnistxrdent wishes of the Catholics of this country,
who saw with regret the oldest church in Germany deprived of a
Superior for eleven year., are now fulfilled. It is most fortunate
that the choice has fallen on a man who is endowed with extensive
knowledge, and has the will and the power to promote the good of
the sock entrusted to his care. In a country where, on an extent
of twenty (400) square miles, numerous Christians of two different
confessions reside, who are mixed with each other not only in
towns and villages, but often in churches and schools, in houses
and families, much prudence, forbearance, and knowledge of man-
kind, and pbilanthropy,,are required to prevent collision, that often
arise from the mosterining causes.

MUNICH, Jam• 1.

Some journals, in addition to the news that the Neapolitan
Court wiU come here with a numerous suite, on their return to
Naples, mention a report of an intended marriage of the Crown
Prince of Naples. This Prince, however, is not In company with
their Majesties, as these journals intimate, but has remained at
Naples as his father's representative.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, JAN. 13.

amnia Lee, whose case was detailed yesterday, was brought
up this day to receive the judgment of the Court.
Mr. Commissioner Haws said, that in this case the insolvent
had been arrested a long time ago upon a debt of 341. of which sum
only 131. was contracted, on his own account, and the rest was for
two other persons for whom he had become guarantee. Having
given bail, he continued at large, and surrendered to prison at his
discretion, no other proceedings having been instituted against him.
In the mean time he had given an assignment of his houses to
M' Donald, whose evidence, like that of the insolvent's, fell short
of proof that the 2901. alleged to have been lent was absolutely ad-
vanced. The judgment of the Court was, that the insolvent be re-
manded to custody for eight calendar months, for fraudulently
making away with a part of his property, and charging other parts
thereof, with Intent to diminish the fond, which ought to be divisi-
ble among his creditors.
He was ordered to be confined within the prison walls, and Mr.
Reuben Martin was appointed assignee.
London, England, 1830-01-14

A FRIDAY, FIRST DAY OF THE YEAR !

lam not superstitious, and yet I have fears. I could
wish this year was already at an end. It commenced on
a Friday ; this is a bad omen. Why are not things so
ordered that a Friday should never mark the commence-
ment of a year ?
Why undertake anything of importance in 1830, when
we have for a point of departure un unlucky day, which
will influence every thing we may wish to do, and will
be, as it were, an advertisement terrible to the boldest.
The authors of wicked projects alone do not fear Fri-
day : I tremble, therefore, for our institutions, which
may it please PROVIDENCE to protect from the fury of
political wolves !
I dread some famine, the more so as I am not sure
that our purveyors have leisure. They have scarcely time
to attend to the granaries of plenty, for they can't do every
thing at once. It would require Methusalems for Ministers
to accomplish everything they undertake : war against se-
ditious decanters, combats with Polichinello, the Buona-
partiste, prosecutions against the revolutionary alma-
nacks—projects of law upon ministerial responsibility,—
specialties for the budget,—pretended reforms and other
engines, to catch the poor liberal world, which does not
know the hands that lay the snares. With all this, how can
you expect our people to think of the means of subsistence ?
I fear that Friday will have an evil influence upon lite-
rature. Let the Epic poems produced in 1830 beware
I would not read one of these for all the gold in the world.
If we could have, in spite of Friday, a few good dramatic
pieces, we should have great good luck ! But the dramatic
soil will, perhaps, be like the vineyards, which the influence
of Friday will freeze. It is true that 1829 has scarcely
been more lucky, although it commenced on a Thursday ;
in fact, what is there of excellence that has sprung up in
the tragic or the comic field, from the Betises of the year
down to the Fete of Nero?
Do I not exaggerate? Is Friday really an unlucky
day ? Yes, no doubt, it is an evil day, but less de
plorable, perhaps, than I think. It will bring misfortune
to the Ministry alone, and then there will be an entire
restoration in France. Friday and the eager cares of
M. BEUGNOT, who everywhere proclaims that M. de
Pomo ac is only too liberal, will kill the Ministers.
This good luck we would cheaply purchase with some
misfortunes. Come then the year on Friday with all its
disasters, provided that in the torrent of evils wish which
we are threatened, it carries away the Ministry, we will
bless it. Yes, let the wine be sour, let more than a half
of the dramatic pieces be insipid, let corn be dear, pro-
vided M. de POLIGNAC and his worthy colleagues take
themselves away, we will not complain. A good Ministry
would save the country. This is then what I wish you!

SENSIBILITY TO HONOUR AT BOTANY BAY.

The gentlemen of this colony are, as may be supposed. peculiarly
jealous of any:invasion of their honour. On entering the Court.liouse
at Sidney, on the 10th April last, the Special Jury discovered the fol-
lowing remarks written on the desk:
" The great proverb writer has informed the world, that there iz
nothing new under the sun. Had be seen the contents of this tuty-box
yesterday, and knew that the persons therein were sitting in judgment on
the properties of others, even he would have acknowledged himself in
err0r.....-April 2, 1100.
" Of all the humbugs in this humbugging world, the moat de-
testable is to sit for hours in a blackguard jury-box, on the s.utie
seats that have been polluted by the estaailk (Anglia) blancipists,
listening to the 'nosing blunders of a superannuated old wig.
" What is there supprising in seeing such worthies here ? They
still labour in their vocation. Formerly pockets were picked by them,
contrary to law. The Legislature has taken pity on them, and now per-
mits some of the most skilful (and on that aecount the most wealthy) to
follow their favourite pursuits under cover of the law.
" Folks shake hands with you here, the very speaking to whom in
the street, at home, would insure one's being disinherited."
These remarks have created a great flame. The matter has been
brought twice before the Coup, and the Attorney-General had the
desks removed from the Court with a view to the very serious proceed.
ings which are about to be instituted. Woe to the culprit !

From the Mornhag Register of Fridag.

Yesterday infornsadeas were lodged at the Had Office of Pollee,
stating that Mr. J. lawless was about to fight a duel with some of this
gentlemen who bad taken a part in the late meeting in Home's Rote .
Warrants for the apprehension of Mr. Lawless were immediately issuol,
and in a short time afterwards he was apprehended in York-street,
by peace officers Manly and Preztder, by whom he was brought
to the Head Office. Mr. Lawless stated to the magistrates, Alderman
Harley and Mr. Tudor, that he had not the slightest notion of com-
mitting a breach of the pace; that he had full satisfaction from the
different parties by whom he had conceived himself injured; and that
he was ready to enter into recognizunces to keep the peace. Upon Mr.
Lawless giving his own recognizance, and promising that two gentlemen
should attend as ball, he was at once liberated.

FRENCH STATISTICAL SOCIETY.

Our readers arc not, perhaps, aware that there is in Paris a riciety
for the cultivation of universal Statistics, which is likely, by 13 la.
bourn, to prove eminently useful to the general interests of mankind.
It was founded by M. Caner Moreau in November last, and already
reckons in the list of its members almost every crowned head in Europe.
Its ordinary members consist of the most talented men of all nations,
who meet monthly for the transaction of the business of the Society
and to forward its interests. It intends to publish its " transactions"
like other Institutions, and as they will be more confined to facts
than to speculation, there can be no doubt of their being highly use.
tuL The King of France has accepted the honour of being patron of
the Society, and the Count de Laborde is President for the present
year. The Candidates for membership are subject to a acme srrutiny
previously to their admission.

CORONER'S INQUEST.

Yesterday evening an Inquest was held at the Fleet Prison, on the
body of Mr. Edward Nettleford, aged 48 years, late a Commodore in
The Royal Coronation Thames Fleet, who had been about six months
a prisoner in the Fleet.
Mr. Cooper, a surgeon, stated that he was sent for on Friday last,
and found the deceased in a high state of fever, his pulse beating 130 in
a minute. On the following day, when visited by the witness, 6a had
become considerably worse, and gradually sank and died not long
afterwards.

The Jury when they viewed the body found it in such an offensive
state, that they apprehended some danger in performing that necessary
part of their duty.
The COROXEN after the return of the Jury to the Inquest room,
asked the Surgeon if he thought there was any danger of infection after
death ?

The Surgeon said that in some cases there were, but there was none
in the present cane, and he hoped the gendesnen of the Jury would make
their minds easy in that respect.
One of the Jurors observed that there was much appearance of blood
upon the body, and asked the occasion of it.
11 The surgeon said the deceased bad died of putrid fever ; after which
there was generally a very rapid decomposition of the body, and the
discolouration observed by the Jury, was a natural consequence.
It appeared from the evidence of a nurse and other persons, that every
attention had been paid to the deceased, and the Jury returned aver.
diet of " Natural death,"

A REASON WORTH A PlNNT.—Cobbett, in his loctnre
the other night. observed. .4 That the petition which he proposed to
present to his Majesty, and which he read to them on Monday, would
be printed, and sold at the price of one penny. Hs would have given
away copies gratis, had he not feared that the friends of the borough-
mongers would have applied them to very different purposes from those
for which they were intended."
IRISH PUGNACITY —At the trial of a butcher of Down-
ham, in Lancashire, on Saturday last, for stealing a cow, time was
some difficulty in identifying the skin ; but the owner swore boldly to
it, from some hurts that were in it. -* He was sure it was his cow, for
she was an Irish cow, and had been fighting the day before she was
stolen."
