Esq. Patrick Ryan, Esq. and about fifty other Gentlemen of re-
spectability were present.
After several introductory toasts were drank, the
boys who have become the objects of the Institution's
bounty, about five-and.twenty in number, were intro-
duced, and walked round the room; tipon which the
Chairman gave, " Success to this Society," and the Se-
cretary, William Grane, E-q. read the Committee's
Report. The object of the Charity is to raise a fund,
by donations and annual subscriptions, f.r apprenticing
children of necessitous persons, natives of the county of
Worcester, and afterwards for assisting them in begin-
ning business; and the Repot t stated that they were stea-
dily advancing towards the accomplishment of this most
laudable and useful object, the Earl of Coventry hav-
ing accepted the office of Patron, and the Earl of Beau-
champ, Lord Viscount Dudley and Ward, the Dean of
Worcester, and other individuals of influence in the
county, have been added to the list of its members.
The Society had also begun to invest part of its funds,
by purchasing £lOO three per cent. Consols, to meet
contingencies. But the applications for its assistance
were becoming extremely numerous ; no less than eleven
petitions having been presented for this Anniversary.

debt. No sooner had the Insolvent executed this in-
strument than he executed a similar instrument for
George Barrett, a near relation, who entered up judg-
ment and swept away all the Insolvent's property, thus
rendering Mr. Dixon's instrument nugatory, and the
effect was to the prejudice of every Other creditor.
The Count could not refrain from observing, that
they entertained considerable doubt, as to whether a
debt existed from the Insolvent to George Barrett, for
the account given by him, and the testimony of White,
the alleged advancer of the money, was of a very
doubtful description. Supposing, however, that the
debt was bone id e, still the Insolvent had brought him-
self within the operation of the Act for preferring one
creditor to the prejudice of every other claimant ;lence
he deserved the animadversion of the Court, and its
judgment, which was, that he should not be discharged
from custody, or receive any benefit or protection under
the Act, until he had been in custody eight calendar
months from the date of his Petition, and that he be,
during the remainder of that term, confined within the
walls of the prison, and deprived of all Rules.

commencement of every Lottery Contract, I now pub-
lisli the SCHEME (all to be drawn on the sth of October next) at full
length ; and though I have hitherto abstained, in the first instance
from offering any comment on a New Scheme, yet I cannot lay the
present one before my mar Famous, the Public, without bestowing
on it my most unqualified approbation, as knot only contains more
than the usual number of grand Money Capitals, but it is all to be
derided in Owe Ds ; a point which I consider very favourable, as

VICIrCHANCELLOWS COURT, JULY f.
In a frienaly suit between different parties, it ap-
peariog jisiat the same Solicitor, in effect, acted for all,
the Vice-Cluncellor took occasion to remark, " This,
practice of the same Solicitor acting for all parties to a
suit, must be checked by authority, and though the
• Court has not the authority now to prevent it, it will
soon have tt."

NEWTON V. riEUZERT.
In this case, the plaintiff, it appeared, is proprietor of
" The London Journal of Arts and Sciences," and the
defendant proprietor of "The Register of Arts and
Sciences." An injunctirm was applied for, to restrain
the defendant from continuing to publibh two prints,
which appeared in the plaintiff's work—one of Pouchee's
type.founding machine, and the other of Hunt's wash-
ing machine.
-The VIOE-CaIANCILLOR having ezamined the plates,
complained that the time of the Court should be taken
up with such trifling subjects. It was ridiculous to ap-
ply $o the Court for au injunction, when any person,by
going to the Enrolment Office, could copy the prints.
The plaintiff must go into a Court of Law, if he fancied
that hisproperty was iiijured; but he had made out no
case for the int erferencrof that Court.

HAGUE, JANUARY ii.

A plot has larly been discovered in Bavaria, which
threatens to have very unpleasant consequences for
many families. Several young men of the respectable
middle class, all under twenty years of age, seem to
have formed a band of rbbbers, which had spread chiefly
in the high schools at Ratisbon, Nuremburg, Amberg,
Salabach, Erlangen, Sm. These youths were aided in
their criminal enterprises by subaltern officers. Their
principal object was stealing and plundering when fires
broke out, for which the confusion incident on such oc-
.casiuns gave them but too frequent opportunity ; and,
it is supposed, that for the attainment of their object
they not 'infrequently became incendiaries. The fruit
of their iniquity was spent in riot and debauchery. A
solitary public-house in the vicinity of Amberg is spoken
of as the place where they held their principal meetings.
—A subaltern Officer of the 10th Regiment of In-
fantry is spoken of as one of their leaders; a corporal is
also named, who made fireworks for the young cri.
minals, which. were used for their incendiary. purposes.
The second fire at Salzbach is placed to their account;
and according to the confession of one of the prisoner;
they stole a large quantity of silver on that occasion.
The first clue to the discovery of these misdeeds is said
to have been found in the School of Liederkron, at
Erlangen, on occasion of the flight of a youth who be-
longs to one of the most respected noble families in Ba-

Thorn Brand was tried for stealing a pair of van
springs from a shop door, outside which they-had been
'placed, and found Guilty.
The CHAIRMAN expressed strong disapprobation at
the practice constantly observed by shopkeepers, of ex-
posing property outside their doors. That circumstance
must, in the present instance, go in mitigation of punish-
meat. The sentence of the Court was, that the prisoner
"should be kept to hard labour for three months in the
House of Correction at Brixton.

Peas, MARCH 22, Six o'Ctoc►, P.M.

Although his Majesty will not open the Chambers,
or even read his Speech to the deputation from the two'
Chambers at the Louvre until to-mon-ow, yet it is known
to be of the most pacific character. The late campaign
in Spain is necessarily a prominent topic ; and hiE Ma-
jebty congratulates the Chambers on its successful ter-.
mination, and the prospect of continued peace. His
Majesty unequivocally declares his intention of with-
drawing his troops the very moment that the tranquil.
lity of Spain can be ensured ; and that in all the ques-
tions of foreign policy, particularly those relating to the
Spanish Colonies, he goes hand in hand with his allies"

Last night the Right Honourable SECRETARY for the
Home DepartMent, in a speech of considerable length
and great ability, moved fora renewal of the Alien Act.
After taking an historical view of the treatment of fo-
reigners in this country for a period of upwards of four
centuries, the Right Honourable SECRETARY proceeded
to shew how leniently the Alien Act had been enforced
since the war. It appears by this statement, that al-
though the number of foreigners in England had varied
in that time from 20,000 to 26,300, (the number at
present in this country), yet orily seventeen persons had
been sent out under the Alien Act. Of these seventeen,
eleven or twelve were persons connected with BONA.
PARTE, whose removal rested on peculiar and exclusive
grounds; so that in eight. years not more'than five or
six persons had been sent out of the country for cause!
which could ordinarily affect Aliens residing in this
country. During the last two years only one person
had been seat out under this law—and this was Count
BETTERA. Those who recollect this man's conduct to-
wards Prince ESTERHAZY, the Austrian Ambassador
'at our Court, will not deny that to send him out of the
country was to treat him with a lenity to which he was
not entitled, rather than a measure of severity. The
Right Honourable SECRETARY combated the various
arguments which had nsually been urged against this
Act, particularly the assertion that it had been made
subservient to the will of Foreign Powers; and he de-
clared, that in ten years there was not an instance of
its being exercised obedient to the views of foreign
policy, nor had any such demand ever been made by
any Foreign State.
Mr. HOBHOUSE moved an amendment, which was
negatived, and the original motion carried• by a large
m•
rjortty.

PARIS, MARCH 22.
This morning their Royal Highnesses Monsieur, the
Duke and Duchess d'Angouleme, accompanied by the
Duke-and Duchess of Orleans, left the,Thuilleries, to
assist at the Mass of the Holy Ghost. The Princes ar-
rived at the Metropolitan Church at twelve o'clock. A
great number of Peers, among whom were many Ec-
'clesiastics, a crowd of Deputies, tbe great officers of the
Crown, the Ministers of the king, and Lieutenant Gene-
rals, preceded their Royal Highnesses. The Diplomatic-
Body, with the Papal Nuncio at their head, took their
station to the left of the altar, which was decorated, on
account of the ceremony. -
Our Bourbons on their entry were saluted with a
thousand acclamations. The Archbishop officiated, and
the music was performed by individuals from the Cha-
pel Royal.

Would alter plans on which so much expense Was already incurred.
He thought Mr. Some was badly handled. After the many proofs
that gentleman had given of his taste, no reflections ought' to be
east on him to depreciate his character and talents. He hoped the
Chancellor of the Exchequer would persist in opposing the;modon.
Sir C. LONG said that he knew Mr. Suane to be a man of great
merit in his profession. He was of opinion that a larger place ought
to hive bten adopted for those buildings. He felt their deformity''
as nitich as any man, but he could not now agree to a Committee
with a view to pull them down. There Via* no room on the other
side of the Hall without pulling down the old offices, and that would
take tco much tirile. Bad, therefore, as this new building was, it
was better to leave it so than pull it down under those circumstances.
Colonel TRENCH said that it appeared to him that a middle
way could be found. That was, by lowering the obnoxious build-
ing, and by raising in the angle a tower to correspond' with the
towers at the side of the great door leading into Westminster Hall.
The whole expense of this parti.il pulling down, and of the building
and finishing this tower, would not exceed £4,ooo.—The House
then divided, and the numbers were—

by sound reason and religion, will infallibly tend to'
drive mankind to become either fanatics or infidels.—
' Had the Rev. Gentleman been jilted by a sweetheart,
as he may yet be, then indeed it might have, been pro.
per in him to read and quote the patience of Job, but
we are quite sure, the latter never intended that his pa-
thetic lament should be applied in a case like the pre-
sent—to excuse Mr. Fletcher's errors—Mr. Fletcher's'
hypocrisy. Popes, Cardinals, and men in rove, should
never meddle with Scripture. When they do, they are
sure to misapply it.
We can very readily conceive that the feelings of the
respectable family which Mr. Fletcher's folly and mis-
conduct has so grievously wounded, must, particularly
those of the young Lady, the victim of his sophistry,
be severely lacerated by the publication to the world of
ail the correspondence. There is, however, nothing in
it of which she need be ashamed. The only error com-
mitted on this side, was, taking any notice of Mr. Flet-
cher's conduct in a Court of Justice. We really think
that the young Lady may think herself extremely for-
tunate that the " ROARING LION FRoNITOPIIET," started
upon Mr. Fletcher, and enabled her to ascertain that
" a total revolution in the views" of the Reverend Gen-
tleman had taken place before marriage, instead of find-
ing it out after the ceremony.
Mfr. Fletcher, we learn, is about to write a " defence."
If so, let him take as his text, Numbers, ch. 30. v. 2, and
see what he will make of it.—The following is the text:
" If a man vow es vow unto the Loan, or swear an oath to bindla
soul mith a bond, he shall not break his word : he shall do according to
all that proccedak out If his mouth."

them of the

preference to elf other Fu4 *locos, and is esteemed peculiarly deli-
cious with Game, Wild Fowl, Hashes, Steaks, and Cold Meat.—

sticker, having turn down sonic bills offer ink a reward for the ap-
prehension of the principals in the above robbery, but which turned
out to be a common trick among bill-stiekers : Jacobs was there-
fore iiischarged.
Tue SPANDIII Reroaxes.—Two Spanish OiNcers,_Franeisco Go-
Vinegar, aptain of Cavalry, and Jose Matica Prat, Lieutenant.
of Infant: y, applied to the Loan evoe under the following tir-
cumstancrs :—They stated that they had long served in the Spanish•
armies, and fought under the Duke of Wellington. Captain Vine-
gas bad, he said, been at the battle of Talavera, and obtained ho-
nours for his services on other great occasions during the campaign.
(Here be produced an .4eial testimonial of that fact—a patent al-
lowing him to wear the Cross of one of the Orders, for his services
on that occasion). They had afterwards fought under General Mina
and the Constitutional Government, recognized by the English Go-
vernment, a,,,ainst the oppressors of their country; but now they
were unsupported and destitute ; they were proscribed for doing :bat
which had previously been considered a test of patriotic devoted-
ness; they were not only plundered of their prOperty, but driven
limn their homes to another land in a state of nakedness. At
Gibraltar they had obtained a slight and teatiporaty shelter, and they
readily lahnured for a morsel of bread ; but compelled to quit this
refuge, they were now whollydestitnie, and actually had no pro-
speet before them but that of perishing in the streets.
• His Lordship gave the unfortunate Spaniards a sovereign for
their temporary relief, and directed diem to produce their testimo-
taials at the office of the Secretary of State for rore:gn Affairs.

OPENING OF TIIE COURT.

The Court was opened at nine o'clock this morning,
at which.time Mr. ARABIN took his seat on the Beach.
Aldermen WOOD, J. J. SMITH, Sir JOHN PEERING,
the Gevernoi and Deputy Governor of the Bank of
England: Mr. Hume, the Executor of the Bellis family,
and a tong list of Noblemen and Gentlemen. The gal-
leries were by no means so thronged as might have
been expected. At five minutes after nine oclock the
prisoners were arraigned. The object towards which
attention was more peculiarly drawn was not amongst
them, namely-, Henry Fauntleroy, E.,q. At ten o'clock
the galleries had .not to boast of any material accession
of numbers, and this may easily be accounted for, by
the heavy sums charged for admission—nothing less
than a sovereign would be listened to for admission to
the galleries, and higher sums were obtained in many
instances. Lord TEMPLE and Lord DYNEVOR took their
stations on the left-hand side of the Court, behind the
box usually occupied by the Governor of the gaol. The
intermediate time of the Court, up to ten o'clock, was
occupied in the trial of prisoners whose cases did not
excite the slightest interest, during which time porters
were occupied in bringing loads of books into Court.

This splendid exhibitiorroi musical science, which
has for so long a period occupied general attention,
commenced on Monday, under the, of Sir

derable till Saturday, when travelling carriages began
to arrive in great numbers. Dining-the whole of last
week, however, many distinguished strangers were
observed in tows ; and the hotels and lodging-houses
had all been previously engaged. Every necessary
arrangement was made to prevent confusion in the
arrival and departure of the company.
The Performance opened with HAYDN'S eighth
Symphony, which has been published and performed
in so many shapes as to be intimately known to all
Professors. A glee
. by Mr. ‘VEBBE followed, which
introduced Miss TRAVIS, Mr. TERRAIL, Mr. VAUGHAN,
Mr. PHILLIPS, and Mr. BELLAMY. Mr. lIRAHAM was
rapturously received, and sung the Recitative Air,
composed for the occasion by TERKANI, in his best
manner. Madme and Signor Da &cuts next ap-
peared, in a duet by GENERA4I. LINDLEY, an old,
and deservedly a great favourite with the Eiinburgh
audience, with his sots, performed a conceitante for
two violoncellos. Miss STEPHENS sung with her usual
del racy and pathos, arid was deservedly encored.
The second part was introduced...l,f the Overture. to
Der Frieschatz. Miss GOODALL iung "Bid me di:.

"Donald;" and the performance concluded with the
finale to the Opera of La Clemenza di Tito.
