BAYONNE, OCTOBER 12.

The most recent letters from the three provinces of
Biscay state, that the public tranquillity becomes more
and more consolidated, by the energetic measures of
the Magistrates, supported by the exertions of the
different Constitutional columns, which are in constant
motion. The bands which infested those provinces
being entirely dispersed, have thrown themselves to-
wards St. Ander, and particularly towards Iraty.
The news of the defeat of the Royalists who went
from that place is confirmed, and they were repulsed
with severe loss. It is even reported that the place is
invested by their adversaries, who hoped to make
themselves masters of it in a few days; but they have
repeated this boast so often that we must not give
credit to it, and especially as Espinosa is not strong
enough to undertake this operation, and at the same
time to attend to the maintenance of tranquillity in
the interior of the province.

Thy house, and Orr the cup of life,
That honey-drop) thy pleasing wife.
QOCRATES, by his discourse on Marriage, so en-
-10 raptured his auditors with the subject, that, the married
men flew to their wives, and the bachelur. hastened to be wedded;
and " The Spectator" has affirmed, that the word" wife" is the
most agreeable and delightful name in nature.
The sacred institution, then, of marriage, compasses the de-
sideratum of our enjoyment ; teeming not only with happiness
on earth, but disposing the soul itself to harintinize with bliss
hereafter.

Previous, however, to entrrins into this hallowed obligation,
it becomes an imperative duty, not only to regulate the passions,
but to cleanse the grosser nature from those impurities which
the freedom of unrestricted pleasure may have entailed upon it.
To the neglect of such attention are attributable many of those
hapless instances, which, while they excite the commiseration
of the beholder, should also impress him with the fear of self-
reproach.
Luxurious habits will effeminize the body—a residence in the
tropics will relax the elastic fibre—but more especially does the
reiaature infatuation of youth too frequently compromise the
n.nUral dignity into a state of inanition, from whence the ago-
nized sufferer more than doubts the chance of relief. To all
such, then, we address otirselves, offering hope—energy--mus-
cuter strength—felicity ; nor will our advances appear question-
:ole, sanctioned as they are by the multiplied proofs of twenty
years successful experience.
The easy cares of married life are sometimes disturbed by the
suspension of those blessings which concentrate the nuptial
wreath—for the female habit is often constitutionally weak—
yet it can be strengthened, and deficient energy improved into
functional power.
In every case of syphilitic intrusion, as well as in every re-
laxation of the generative economy, we pledge our ability to,
cure speedily, and with effect. Earnestly solicitous to expel the'
unfeeling empyric from the position so presumptuously taken
tip, we deviate front general principles with less hesitation; and
confident in our own honourable integrity as Members of the
College of Surgeons, we refer the suffering community of either
sex (especially those entering into matrimonial life) at mice to
stir house, where daily attendance is given for personal con-
sultation; and letters from the country are inunodiately an-
swered ; these must contain a remittance for Advise and Medi-
cine, which can be forwarded to any part of the world, how-
ever distant. GOSS and Co. M. R. C. Surgeons, No. 7,

BOXING.

Friday evening a dispute arose at a public-house near Bromley,
between two working men, one of the name of APGan, and the
other Barrettes, which they agreed to settle by a set-to.
They accordingly retired to a field near the river Lea, where
they fought for nearly half an hour, when ;Wean received a blow
on the head, which ruptured a blood vessel, and he soon after died.
Pattie TOMAS TOR Till FANCL—To-morrow the trial fight be-
tween Ward and Abbott will take place, within 18 miles of Lon-
don. The amateurs are very much divided in opinion upon this
subject. Ward is a gay fighter; but considered a slight, tapping
sort of hitter, while, on the contrary, it is asserted that the
goodness of Abbott is yet to be seen, and his blows are likewise
put in with great severity. Time will decide.
RAT-KILLING.—EXTRAORDINARY MATCH.

The owner of the famous dug Billy, of rat-killing notoriety,
has again undertaken that he shall perform the almost incredible
task of killing one hundred rats in twelve minutes, in the Westmin-
ster
Pit. The bet is for Fifty Sovereigns. The rats ate to be
turned loose in al2 foot square. The door of the pit is to be
whitened, so that the whole of the rats are to be visible to the
dog, and to the Amateurs, for whose accommodation extra gal-
leries are erecting. Some difference having arisen on the last
match, as it was said one rat escaped, there are now to be an
additional number provided to prevent any disappointment.—
Exclusive of the stakes, large sums are depending on this match.
From the known pluck and busy qualities of Billy he is rather
the favourite. Some of the rats selected for the present match
are, however, known to be complete out and eiders, and Billy
will have sharp work to win.—The match is to take place on
Tursday evening next.

PEDESTRIANISM.

Yesterday, James Tenney, the pedestrian, who started from
the White Bear, St. Johifs-street, Smithfield, on Tuesday last,
at twelve o'clock, for a wager of 100 guineas, to walk to Yotk
and back (400 miles) in five successive days, arrived at the above
place 35 minutes after eleven yesterday morning, having 25 mi-
nutes to spare, notwithstanding the weather was so inclement.
He is in the 50th year of his age, and has performed numerous
other extraordinary pedestrian feats, with equal success.
GATHERING UP THE 100 STONES !

Townsend, the pedestrian, on Monday afternoon performed
a surprising task at Sheffield, by gathering with his mouth 100
stones, placed at the distance of one yard asunder, and walking
four miles backward, five forward, and running eight, making
in the whole 23 miles, which he performed ins three hours and
.56 minutes. being four minutes under the time specified. He
gathered the 100 stones in 47 minutes, equal to a distance of
nearly six miles.

HARD BUT INTERESTING WORK!!

THE BOYS who draw the State Lottery will have
hard but interesting work to perform the next Two Days
of Drawing, as they have no less than 91 Capital Prizes to draw
out in that Short space of time; consequently it will be a very
interesting period, as from their great number thay must in.
evitahly Dome up in such quick succession, that they will be the
Two most interesting days ever known in the Lottery annals.—
Notwithstanding the unprecedented rich state of the Wheel, the
price is not so high as it usually is at this period, when, perhaps,
there were not a tenth part of the Capitals in the Wheel. A few
warranted undrawn Tickets and Shares are sill on Sale at

BISH'S OFFICES,

And by his Agents in the Country.

Which are considerably more than the old Lotteries of 50 or

House will not perniit measure, involving such

the House. If the Bill should past; it will establish
a precedent, never.before known in our jurisprudence,
that Parliament may exercise an original jurisdiction'
over the rights of private property. The estates be.j
longing to a valuable institution, founded as a Free
Grammar School, and of which that institution hai'
beertin the undisputed possession for upward of 260
years, are by this Bill (at the instance of its own
Trustees) to be appropriated to objects never contem-
plated by the founder, when at the same time the
ladministration of the Charity, in consequence of the
mismanagement of those Trustees, has, with the con-
currence of the ATTORNEY-GENERAL, been placed
under the direction of the LORD CHANCELLOR. It is
worthy of observation, that one of the Solicitors for
this Bill is one of the.Trestees, and a defendant to the
proceedings in Chancery.

THE EVENING STAR.

MUSSELS. JULY 1.

The Princess Esterhazy arrived here from England
the day before yesterday, and set out 'yesterday, at
noon, for Vienna.

It was well known that the object of the late visit
of Lucien Bonaparte, Prince of Canino, to Brussels,
was the marriage of his eldest son with the eldest
daughter of the Count de Sarvilliers (Joseph Bona-
parte). This marriage was celebrated the day before
yesterday, at the Town Hall and the Church, with
the usual ceremonies.

The speech delivered Ly Baron de Serret (of West
Flanders), on the 6th June, in the Second Chamber
of the States-General, is now published at length ;
it was against the project of law for the alienation of
the domains by way of lottery. The following is an
extract from this discourse:

g, The next article we find is, that a sum of eight
millions is required, to make up, it is stated, the spe-
cial fund destined for the fortification and arming of
the Southern frontiers.

" As the importance of the object, and the sums
which it has already cost us, deserve some moments
attention, I will begin by putting your Mightinesses
in mind, that, by the Treaty of London, we ceded to
England our Colonies of the Cape of Good Hope,
Demerara, Essequibo, and Berbice; and that, in con-
sequence of this cession, England engaged,

" t st. To pay, in our stead, a million pound ;sierling to Sweden•
2dly. To contribute, like us, two millio;s sterling of the ex-
penses to he incurred in the constructing and arming of the line
of defence of the kingdom.
" 3d. To bear, together with us, and to the amount of a sam
of three millions sterling, ' All farther expenses to be regu-
lated and determined by common consent u necessary to the
final establishment as well as to the consolidation of the union
of the Low Countries with Holland under the Govcrtment of the
House of Orange.'—(These are the exprestwords of the Treaty).

" The first of these stipulations having no connec-
tion with the subject before us, I will say, as for the
second, that it has been faithfully performed, and
that the whole sum of two millions sterling, therein
mentioned, has been paid to us. But I will add*
that even then all the excess of the expenses above
the receipts already effected for the fortification, can-
not fall wholly upon us, if it is true that the third
stipulation, which I have quoted, of the Treaty of
the .1 Sth. of August, 1814, is to be. performed. Foe
what *did the contracting parties mean by the words,

LEGHORN, JUNE 19.

The Austrian armed brig the Veneto, from Smyrna,
cast anchor in this port the day before yesterday. She
sailed from Smyrna on the 22d of May, and, up to
the 26th, met successively, in the neighbourhood of
Scio, the Ottoman fleet, consisting of 4'l• sail, viz.—
two of the line, of 96 guns ; two of 72 guns, twelve
frigates,'twelre brigs, and sixteen smaller vessels,i—
Three days afterwards the same brig fell in with the
Greek fleet, which was cruizing off the island of Ip-
sara, and which consisted of 68 vessels, provided
with Congreve rockets. The Ottoman fleet was id-
lowing the Greeks, and it is consequently very pro-
bable, that we may soon have information of a naval
battle having taken pace.

FOR PRESERVING THE TEETH AND GUMS.

11H E VEGETABLE TOOTH-POWDER has so
long been in general use that it is unnecessary to offer any
further recommendation of it. Composed of Vegetables, without
the admixture of any mineral or pernicious ingreditrnt whatever,
it is free from the usual objection against the use of other Dien-
ri7rices. Its detersive power is just sufficient to annihilate those
eestructive particles which adhere to the Gums and the interstices
cf the Teeth, healing injuries in the former, and promoting a
enamel, where it has been injured or corroded, on the latter.
t likewise imparts a firmness and healthy redness to the Gums,
”d if used regularly, will preserve the Teeth in a sound state to
cid age.

AGRICULTURAL DISTRESS.

Lord A. HAMILTON presented a Petition from
the Commissioners of Supply in the County of La-
nark, complaining of the distressed state ot the Agri-
cultural Interest, and praying the attention of -the
House. The Petitioners also prayed for the liberty
of importing distilled spirits into England. He said
that the distress was not confined to the growers of
corn alone, but that it had extended itself among the
breeders of sheep and cattle. The Petitioners had
staved, that they relied upon the wisdom of that
House for some plan for their relief, but he much
feared that those feelings of confidence would be im-
paired by the proceedings of last night.
Mr. MAXWELL was of opinion, that all the re-
strictions on the consumption of grain imposed by the.
Distillery Laws should be done away with. Much
could yet be done for the relief of the farmer by in-
creasing the consumption of corn, and by an efficient'
reduction of taxation.

It gives us great pleasure to find that a measure
which we were one of the first to recommend, that
of a Public Subscription for the starving Peasantry
of Ireland, has commenced under circumstances so
truly auspicious. Tlie conduct of the British Go-
vernment towards Ireland has been that of an unna-

tural parent and a cruel taskmaster; and while the
crimes of the Irish have been visited with the most
prompt and severe measures of coercion, a deaf
ear has been turned to their miseries—while they
have asked for bread, we have given them—the In-
surrection Act. It is true that Lord LONDONDERRY
proposes a million of money for the relief of Ireland,
but there is no haste whatever in carrying the grant
through Parliament, which might be done with as
much rapidity as the Insurrection Act ; on the con-
trary, it seems to be one of the very last portions
of those anomalous plans proposed by his Lordship
which Parliament will be called on to discuss.
The cry of distress has not, however, been heard in
vain; the appeal to the British Public has been im-
mediately answered by a liberal subscription, which,
from the rank and respectability of the individuals,
we are assured, will be as promptly and as judiciously

applied. Five thousand pounds were subscribed yes-

terday, in a few hours; and that sum will, we doubt
not, soon accumulate to fifty thousand pounds. The
subscription has not received any assurance of aid
from the Government ; but three of the Ministers have
individually contributed liberally, and their example
will, we trust, be followed by every one who receives
any share of the public money, of which Ireland,
distressed as she is, contributes some portion. •
The list of subscriptions is highly honourable to

the benevolence of the individuals who have thus

come forward to relieve the distress of the starving
Iri:h ; there are, however, some who, although not
giving the list the sanction of their names, have set a
glorious example of humanity and beneficence. Sir•
EDWARD °Tarim. stated at the Meeting yesterday,
that a benevolent individual, who was ready to give
a cargo of meal and rice for the relief of the suf-
ferers, had called on him to know where it could be
most advantageously sent. It appears also that a
Lady, worthy of her sex, always the first to court
the offices of soft humanity, had, during the last
week, caused a vessel to be freighted at her own
expense, with forty tons of potatoes and ten barrels
of herrings, which were dispatched to the nearest
ports in the distressed districts of Ireland. We shduld
have been happy to give the. name of this Lady,
and hold her up to the admiration and gratitude of
the world : but hers is that modest benevolence,
which will

BRITISH CONSULS ABROAD.

Mr. lIUME rose to bring on his motion upon this
subject, of which he had given notice. He stated
that his object was to fix a scale of kes payablo to
Consuls and Vice-Consuls, as at present great uncer-
tainty prevailed upon that subject. England was al-
most the only commercial country which had not a
uniform system of charges. America had a uniform
system—so hitd France. In many places the Consuls
were paid by salary, and had no fees whatever. The
charges payable to British Consuls varied in every
post. Whilst an American ship paid but tao dollars
for exhibiting the ship's papers, it cost an English ship
from two to six pounds, at the same port. Lists of
charges should be made out, and delivered to the
masters of vessels. He bad taken the trouble to
compare the charges at several ports to which Bri-
tish ships resorted, and he found the greatest discre-
pancy in them. Foi- a vessel of 150 tons burden the
charges were
At Ifamburgh Cl 17 B—Or 3d. per we.
Rotterdam . 516 11
• ltgurdeaux - 11 2 6
'Naples 4 II 3
Leghorn - 3 8 9
Genoa 3 15 0
And St. Michaels a different sum from all these...
He contended that all these charges were over-rated,
and that at least they ought to be brought to some
uniform standard, by which the British merchant
would be
governed. He had said they were over-
rated, because he found the allowance to British Con-
sols had greatly increased 'within a few years. In
• 792 it was but £lO,OOO, now it amounted to 1:50,000.
- understood the subject was under the considers-
,of the Board of Trade. These questions, how-
ever, eterfsometimes years under consideration be-
fore any decisive step was taken, and he therefore
wished to call the attention of Ministers more par_
icularly to die subjeCt. He had also to complain
.rat proper persons were not chosen as Consuls
abroad. Persons had been appointed to the situation
