ILLUSTRATIONS of the PASSION of
LOVE.

" The design of the work is very excellent ; the subject'
has an immortal interest; and, conversant as the writer
seems to be with Bayle, D'Herbelot, and the best sources,,
we think the Illustrations of Love are likely to be a widel%y
popular performance."—London Weekly Review.
" This is one of the pleasing and novel selections which
cause a reader to express surprise that such a work has not
been :previously compiled. The present is the first volume
of an intended series, and if we may judge from this speci-
men, the book will prove highly popular. From a careful
perusal, we do not believe there is one passage in this vo-
lume at which the most delicate female, or the most sensi-
tive mind, could take offence ; -while all classes will find
in its pages ample entertainment."—Tyne Mercury.
" This is precisely what has been long wanting to our
literature; a desideratum hi the history of human passion,
which the present Editor has successfully supplied."—Sun.

garden.

RIOT AND OUTRAGE AT THE FEMALE

CONVICT DEPOT, CORK.

On Sunday morning about eight o'clock, the fe-
male prisoners, to the number of 200, confined in the
Depot of this city, under rule of transportation, had
a difference with the Dublin convicts, whose num-
bers were not at all equal, and made a desperate
attempt to get at them, for the purpose of putting
them to death ; but through the timely interference
of the Governor and his Officers, they were most
fortunately separated, and obliged, for the preserva-
tion of their lives, to be removed to the City Prison.
The Munster convicts, united with the Northerns,
disappointed in their plans, made 'every exertion to
destroy the prison, broke every sash and the entire
glass of this extensive building, and bade a defiance
to the guards ; having prepared themselves with
stones, and every weapon that could be had, they
would not allow their removal to the lock-up wards
allotted fin. the night; and on the Governor and his
attendants entering, made a most violent attack on
them, cut and wounded several of the guard, -and,
unfortunately, for the first time, from the darkness of
the night, these wretched creatures, before they
submitted, received some severe wounds.—Dublin

The crops arc looking remarkably well
throughout the whole eastern district of Stirlingshire.
Wheat is particularly luxuriant ; Oath and Barley also
present a very favourable appearance, and in truth every
species of vegetation promises to yield a most abundant
crop. Harvest, it is expected, if the present sunshine
weather continues; will be general in the course of a month—
at least for barley.—Edinburgh Evening Courant.
THE SEASON...L.-The weather has been highly
propitious for the last week, and we can now speak with
tolerable assurance of a plentiful harvest. After a tract
of dry days and sultry evenings, we were visited on Monday
morning last,' with copious and refreshing showers, which
came just in time to insure good returns of potatoes, turnips,
and every other kind of green crop. This timely moisture
will have the effect too, of increasing the length of the oat
straw, which looked poor and of short growth in our im-
mediate neighbourhood. We learn that there never existed
better prospects of a good crop in the north,—particularly
in Caithness. The profusion of every production of the
earth in that county this year, is without parallel. In
ninny parts of Ross-shire, the crops ate so weighty, that
the late rains have lodged them, but not so much so, as to
endanger them ; and it is hoped that in their inclined state
they will fill and ripen, and probably rise again. We have
given in another place various reports on the prospects of
the . harvest throughout the county ; and the summary of
the whole appears to be, that never was the kingdom blessed
with more comfortable and cheering hopes on this interest.

weaken that influence hi the Levant, which was
compared, by an English Minister, in the last cep-
tury, to the power ,of Great Britain over India. It
is to be wished that, by a desirable compensation,
ail the Powers may have, like her, made a sacrifice
of their private interests, in taking up a generous
cause.

We wish, for instance, that England, in the com-
plete independence of Egypt, may only regard. the
means of improving the civilization of that ancient
country, and not a hope of destroying the influence
of a commercial rivalry, which she dreads. We also
wish that Russia may have embraced the cause of
Gipece only from feelings of religions fellowship,
and froM those sentiments of humanity which every
generous soul can applaud.

lie did not stop a moment here, after having an-
nounced positively to the authorities, that his Ma-
jesty Charles X. will stop within our walls. The
Town,Council is already engaged in preparations,
and every thing gives us teason to believe, that
nothing will be spared to celebrate worthily a day,
during which the people of Douay will give them-
sel'ves up without restraint to the exultation of their
hearts."

SPECULATION AND ANTICIPATION.

A well-known printer, at St. Ives, in this county, whe
obtains a living by printing dying speeches, threw off a
large impression of the last moments of Slade, on the
morning on which the criminal's respite was received.
According to the never-varying phraseology of these docu-
ments, " the youth was perfectly resigned to his fate, and
was launched into eternity, as a warning to the unthink-
ing and ungodly." An immense Sale took place, and on
the printer being remonstrated with for his precipitancy,
be coolly replied, that " he was only a few clays before-
hand."

DARING BURGLARY.-011 Sunday evening,
between eight and. ten o'clock, a burglary took
place at the house of Mr. Sugden, Mornington-
row, Hampstead-road. It appears that the
family were out of town, and the house was left
in the charge of two female servants. The girls
left the house' on Sunday morning for the pur-
pose of accompanying some of their friends on a
water excursion to Richmond. On their return
home, they found that some villains had entered
the house, and carried off every thing that was
portable, consisting chiefly of plate, tea-caddies,
work-boxes, a great number of valuable books,
some valuable chimney ornaments, and several
handsome portraits, and a quantity of wearing.
apparel. Prior to the robbers leaving the house,
it seems, they regaled themselves with the con-
tents of the pantry, and nearly emptied a cask of
home-brewed

We have only a moderate supply of Wheat here this
morning. Fine fresh Wheat being comparatively scarce,
obtains last Friday's prices, but all other descriptions have
met dull sale, at a decline of is. per quarter, and very little
can be quitted. Oats sell at much the same prices, but
sales are not brisk. The Foreign Barley is in very little
demand at present. Good Beans are in request, and is.
per quarter dearer, but the middling descriptions of Fo-.
reign hang on hand. higher prices are obtained for Rape-
seed, it being pretty well ascertained that the crop abroad
will not produce much above half an average.

NING.

At three o'clock a Cabinet Council was held
at the residence of Mr. CANNING in Downing-
street, summonses for which were issued by
Viscount DUDLEY, which was attended by the
LORD CHANCM.T.OR,'the Earl of HARROWBY,
the Duke of PORTLAND, the Marquis of
LANSDOWNE, the Marquis of ANGLESEA, the
Earl of CARLISLE, Viscount GODERICII, Vis-
count DUDLEY, Viscount PALMERSTON, Mr.
WYNN, Mr. TIERNEY, Mr. STURGES BOURNE,
and Lord BEXLEY.

The Ministers sat in deliberation till past five
o'clock.

The Duke of PORTLAND, after the breaking
up ofthe Cabinet Cow►cil, proceeded to Chiswick.

Dr. HOLLAND, after visiting his patients in
town, returned to Chiswick.

At eight,o'clock this morning another ' con-
sultation took place on the state of the Right
Hon. Gentleman's health, and the Physicians
shortly after issued the following bulletin :

CHISWICK, AUG. 7, 8 O'CLOCK, A. M
" Mr. CA NNING'S state of danger is still more
urgent than at the time of last night's report.

(Signed) " J. ;TIERNEY.
" J. R. FARRE.
" H. HOLLAND."

The greatest anxiety was manifested during
the morning by every class of persons, all
eagerly enquiring at the Public Offices respect-
nigtil c real situation of Mr. CANNING. A number
of unfounded reports being prevaleati tended

only the male to excite the public .yinpathy.
On inquiring at the Foreign Office at one o'clock,
we were informed, that by twelve o'clock Mr.
CANNING bad rallied a little, but still the
greatest apprehensions were entertained.

The anxiety manifested in the city is quite in-
describable.. The following has been circulated

in various quarters :

City, half-past One.

" An Express has j ust arrived from Chiswick---
all that can be ascertained is that Mr. CANNING
was alive at twelve o'clock. His right side is

entirely gone, and be appears to bein the greatest
agony when touched."

The following is the latest intelligence received
at the Foreign Office up to a Quarter to Four.
Chiswick, Half-past One o'clock.
" Mr. CANNING is not worse since the morn-

• 9,
111 a.

(FRONI OUR CORRESPONDENT.)

Chiswick, half-past Two o'clock.

I have just heard that the Physicians met in
consultation, at a quarter before 2 o'clock, but this
report seems improbable, as Sir W. KNwirroN,
who started for Windsor immediately after the
issuing of this morning's Bulletin, has not re-
turned.

The following are the -names of the distin-
guished persons who made enquiries in the,
course of the day at the Porter's Lodge. Sir

MESOPOTAMIAN MARRIAGES.

In the evening we quitted the Convent of Deer Zafferany, and
returned to Mardin, approaching the town on its eastern side, and
reaching the residence of the Patriarch just before sun-set.
On our entering this, we had to salute a venerable old Matrae,
now one hundred and two years of age, with a long beard of sil-
very white, possessing all his mental faculties in full perfection, and
reading even iett.rs and other writings without the aid of glasses.
A large party wire assembled here also, but not of pilgrims ;
were all residents of the town, and the purport of their meeting
was an interesting one, it being the prelude to a marriage in-
tended to be consummated to-night.
It was the custom here, half a century ago, to celebrate the
marriages of the Christians in their churches, and to perform the
festivities as openly as they wished ; but repeated insults and inter-
ruptions, offered to them by the Turks, occasioned this to be dis-
continued. The practice now is, when an espousal has been con-
tracted between the parties, and the day of marriage fixed, for the
bride to be prepared at her own house in the morning. The friends
of both parties then assemble at the house of the priest, and break
bread together before him, which is received as a confirmation of
their intentions, and at midnight, the bride being taken to her
future lord's house, the marriage is solemnized by a union of
hands in prayer. Festivities follow, in proportion to the wealth
of the parties ; but these seldom c' I, even with the poorest, before
the expiration of three days.
It was this breaking of bread that had called the evening party,
in which I found myself, together. Three large flat loaves,
made in the convent, and bearing upon them the holy seal,
were placed on a salver, covered with an embroidered cloth,
and on them was laid a gilded paper full of fine white sugar.
The Patriarch, holding the jewelled cross, which he con-
stantly carries with him, in his right hand, waved it over
the bread, and gave it his blessing. All then crossed them-
selves, and the bread being broken by one of the party, a morsel
of it was given with a still smaller portion of sugar, to each
of the witnesses. On this being ended, a Syrian hymn was sung,
in which the chorus of " Halleluja" was frequently heard, and the
air was lively and well adapted to the occasion. After this co-
pious draughts of arrack, without which no meeting of friendship
or of joy can be complete among the Christians of the East, was
distributed to all, and they departed in peace, according to the
word.—Buchingham's Travels in Mesopotamia.

Early yesterday morning the sale-room of Mr.
Thomas Kay, No. 1, Welbeck-street, was broken into and robbed
of broad cloth, kerseymere, and table covering to the amount
of 250/.

DE BEAUVOIR V. RHODES.

Certain points in dispute in this case were admitted at the bar,
and undertakings entered into to produce certain documents and
make admissions at the trial, which put an end to the pending
motion for leave to amend the plaintiff's bill. This having tran-
spired,
His LORDSHIP intimated, that the only remaining questions now
before this Court were, whether what bad passed had put an end
to the cause; and whether what had lately been done by the de-
fendant was committing waste ? and these questions he would dis-
pose of on Monday morning.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF LORDS—FAa. 8.

Their Lordships met to-day at four o'clock; an.i the Bishop of
Landaff, the Duke of Richmond, Earl Cathcart,',,Earl Nelson,
Lord Colchester, and several other Peers, took liie"-Oaths and
their seats.

IMPORTATION OF WOOL.
The Duke of RICHMOND presented a petition
from the Owners and Occupiers of Land in the Western Division
of the County of Sussex, complaining, that by the altoroions made
in the laws relative to wool, large quantities of that articlewetw
imported from abroad, so that they could not dispose of their
stocks, and that though they were suffering severely from the re-
duction in the price of wool, the woollen manufacturer was not
benefited, nor the price of woollens reduced : the petitioners
therefore prayed that their Lordships would take the state of
the laws, which regulated the importation of wool, into their
consideration.

IN THE MATTER OF BARNETT, A BANKRUPT.

Mr. Ross moved that a country commission in this matter
might not be sealed, or rather resealed, for it had already passed
the Great Seal, until a petition could be heard. The circum-
stances were these :—A commission had issued to London com-
missioners against the bankrupt, calling him, Barnet, under which
assignees had been chosen, for whom Mr. Rose appeared. A
country attorney, thinking a country commission would be by far
the best, and that there had been a most egregious and irreparable
mistake in the commission that had issued, which was, that the
bankrupt's name was not Barnet, but Barnett, had contrived to
get another commission to issue.
His LORDSHIP enquired if the want of a t to the bankrupt's
surname, was all the mistake.
Mr. Rosa declared it was.

His LORDSHIP said, this put him in mind of a circumstance
that had occurred with respect to himself ; " I was called upon,
(said his Lordship) at one time, as being the person attesting a
deed, where the name of the person signing it was Scot; that is,
Scot with one t only, my own name having two t's. My name-
sake who was a person without quality, said to me, your name is
a little rounder in the mouth than mine, but mine has more qua-
lity in it."--( Laughter.)
The proceedings under the Country Commission that had issued
were ordered to be stayed.

spected by Major-General Sir H. Torrens, who expressed himself
highly pleased with the regularity and soldier-like appearance of
the men tinder the command of Captain Duke, of the 48th Regi-
ment, an officer in high estimation here, and considered an excel-
lent drill under the Adjutant-General's new system. The General
seemed much pleased with the school establishment for the privatei
and non-commissioned officers of the Depots here, and the extreme
regularity of the Hospital Department, under the direction of As-
sistant-Surgeon Marshal of the 87th regt.
London, England, 1827-02-09

COOK V. COLLINRIDGE.

Mr. HEALD said, in this case, which, it would be recollected,
was the great coach-making concern in Liquorpond-street, that
had been ordered by the Court to be sold at the instance of the
plaintiff, a petition had been presented, bringing forward excep-
tions to the Master's report ; and that as the petition could not
very well be heard before the Vice-Chancellor, because of the
many times the case had been before his Lordship, and the orders
he had made in it, he was instructed to pray that his Lordship
would be pleased to appoint an early day for the hearing of the
exceptions in this branch of the Court.
His LORDSHIP desired it to come on, on the second day after
the first Seal.

CORN LAWS.

The Duke of RICHMOND presented Petitions
from the Occupiers of Land in the several Hundreds of Westbourn,
Aidwick, Box, and Southwick, and two others, all praying that
there might be no alteration in the Corn LaWs. -The petitions
were all respectably signed. They were, however, signed exclu-
sively by the *occupiers of land, who had refused to allow them to
be signed by one landowner, because it had been• said that nobody
but landowners, who were anxious to keep rents high, petitioned
against an alteration of the Corn Laws, and these occupiers of land
had therefore come forward to expr, their opinion against any
alteration of the law.

Lord CAWDOR presented a. similar Petition from
the Noblemen, Gentlemen, and Landowners and Occupiers, in the
County of

Lord REDESDALE presented a similar Petition
from Stow-on-the-Wold, Gloucestershire. The petitioners repre-
sented to their, Lordships, the Noble Lord said, that they had been
induced, under the sanction of the law, to expend large sums of
money in improving their lands, which if foreign corn were im-
ported, would 'be lost to them. The petitioners also complained,
like the petitioners whose prayer another Noble Lord had pre-
sented to their Lordships, of the importation of wool. They stated
that the price of wool had remunerated them for keeping an ad-
ditional number of sheep, by which,' on our present improved
state of fanning, the quantity of corn grown had been increased ;
but that the price had now sunk so low that they could no longer
keep up large flocks, and their cultivation must be deteriorated.
While they regretted this, they observed that the price of woollen
cloths had not fallen. The petitioners also complained of the
importation of hides, which had beat down the price of their
cattle, but they found leather no cheaper.—Tbe petition was read
and laid on the Table.

ADDRESS TO HIS MAJESTY.
The Earl of LIVERPOOL, in rising, wished
first, in order to prevent any misunderstanding, to inform their
Lordships that public business would always commence in future,
as formerly, at five o'clock. The Noble Earl then said he rose to
give notice, that on Monday next he should move an Address of
Condolence to his Majesty on his late melancholy loss ; and he
was sure that every one of their Lordships who heard him would
participate in that sentiment. The Noble Earl moved, " That
their Lordships be summoned for Monday."—Ordered.

ROYAL SOCIETY, THURSDAY, FEB. 8.

At the meeting this evening, a paper was communicated by Sir
E. Home, Bart. V.P.R. S. on the Physiology of Respiration, and
other points connected with it; illustrated by drawings from
the microscopic observations of Mr. Bauer. The object of
these researches was chiefly to elucidate the structure and use
of the small cells of the lunge, and the termination of the ar-
terial and venal systems of that organ. These points were
examined and described in detail ; and Sir E. Home adduces the
result of the investigation, as refuting the ordinary opinions re-
*Peeting the carbonization of the blood.
Caesar Moreau, Esq. and Dr. Pritchard were elected into the
Society.
