was desirable to remove the exhibition to a more ap-
propria.e place, and where those persons should be able
to see it. who, although they might not have such good
legs and feet as their neighbour!, were equally entitled
to the gratification. There was no intention of turning the apart-
ments of the Academicians into public offices.
Mr. HOBHOUSE said, he hoped that the arrange-
ments contemplated by the Right Hon. Gentleman
vt ould remove the barracks from the King's Mews.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said,
t',at earls in the Session he had answered a question
from the Hon. Member, by saying that there was an
intention to convert the stables into a barrack. He saw
no reason for altering that intention now.
Mr. CROKER expressed his wish that his Right
Hon. Friend would give the great exhibition room at
Somerset House to the Royal Society, as their library.
Mr. W. SMITH hoped that before any large sum
were expended in building, the remainder of Somerset
Hothes which now remained in so disgraceful a state,
would be completed.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said,
that Mr. Smart (or Mr. Smirke) had been desired to
prepare an estimate of the expense.
Aiter a few words from Mr. H. Gums', the Resolution was
then agreed to.
The other items were then put and carried, and the Report was
ordered for to-morrow. _ _

The Report of the Committee upon the Customs and Stamps Con-
solidation Acts, was brought up, and the Resolutions agreed to.

CANADA TRADE ACT.

The House resolved itself into a Committee upon the
Canada Trade Act.

Mr. WILMOT-HORTON proposed certain Resolu
tions, which were adopted, and the Chairman reported
them to the House, and obtained leave to bring in a
Bill founded thereon.
London, England, 1825-03-29

Odessa and Tiflis, and to give him an Order for post=
horses. He set out again the same day.

Petitions on the subject of the Catholic Claims conti-
nue to be presented to both Houses of Parliament. In
the House of Lords the Bishop of GLOUCESTER pre-
sented a Petition from the Rural Dean and the Clergy
of a Deanery in the Diocese of Gloucester, praying that
no laws be passed in favour of the Roman Catholics.

In the House of Commons, Mr. SPRING RICE pre-
sented a Petition from the Nobility, Gentry, and Inha-
bitants, of Limerick, in favour of the Catholic Claims.
The Honourable Member at the same time stated that
some of the Petitioners would have been better pleased
had they seen the Bills for regulating 40s. freeholders,
and providing for the Catholic Clergy, brought in along
with that now before the House.

This led to a desultory conversation, in the course of
which Mr. LITTLETON immediately announced, that it
was his intention after the holidays to introduce a Bill
to regulate the voting of the forty-shilling freeholders
of Ireland, arid to raise the qualification of the registered
freeholder, not to more than 101. and not to lees than
51. This announcement was received with satisfaction by
some Members, who thought such a Bill, coupled with a
measure for the payment of the Catholic Clergy," would
disarm the Emancipation Bill of much of its terrors."
—Mr. Secretary PEEL, however, stated, that he'" would
not accept of those measures as grounds for modifying
his hostility to the Bill, but that if his opposition to it
should be overruled by the House, he might then
choose to entertain them as measures of security."
Sir FRANCIS Buazierr took occasion to vindicate Mr.
O'CoNNELL's veracity, by stating that he had drawn a
draft of an Emancipation Bill at his request and that of
a few friends, not Members of the Committee, but that
it had not been used, lest its origin should have formed
a ground of objection in the House.

NEAR Portsmouth the " Battle of Minden," the Signs,
An Inn long renown'd for good cheer and old wine,
A handsome young hostess, and excellent lodging;
An °Meer lately came over from France,
No longer in idle attendance to dance,
His occupants Monsieur most gladly disgorging.
This oMcer, then, ev'ry comfort ensuring,
At " Battle of Minden" a lodging procuring,
And items of Use and of Ornament lacking;
In dress predetermhed to shine all resplendent,
Directed, o'er all, that his sable attendant
A quantum should purchase of WMllll44'll Jet Blacking.
The mild youth of Afric the mandate obey'd,
When lo! in the Boots, by the luminous shade
Of the Jet, like a Mirror, his dark features glaring;
He gaz'd in amaze, long with eztacy mute,
Then laugh'd, as laugh'd with him the Child in the Boot,
And eagetly thence to his Massa repairing;—
" 0 come Massa, Captain," he said, "come and see,
Him live in de Boot—blacky child* as me—
Mich like as my poor leteel broiler him seem,
Him die—him some back—die no more," and his eyes
Were glisten'd by Joy, when aghast with surprise,
Two " Childa" he view'd in the Boot's jetty gleam.
His Massa the cause of the vision explain'd ;
And now in the youth was delusion restrain'd,
His mind Superstition no longer attacking ;
Enhanc'd thence, in fame, is the fine glossy hue
That dress can improve, and dark Error subdue,
Of WAIIIIRN'S resplendent, inimited Blacking !

GAME LAWS.

Upon the motion of Mr. S. WORTLEY, the House
went into a Committee upon the Game Laws Bill.
The clauses of the Bill were agteel to with a few
observations.

Mr. TENNYSON then proposed a clause to repeal
the provision of the 3d and 4th of William and Mary,
givilw power to warden and park-keepers to kill poachers.
After a few observations from Mr. LOCLEART, the clause was
agreed to.—The Bill then passed through the Committee.
Before the Chairman left the Chair, Mr. S. WORTLEY gave no-
tice, that he should propose a clause, on receiving the Report, upon
the suhject of following hounds in the pursuit of Game over neigh-
bouring lands.
Mr. UROODF-N then left the Chair. The House resumed, and the
report was ordered to be received to-morrow.

ADJOURNMENT OF THE HOUSE.

Mr. HUSKIIISON, on the part of the Right Hon. the Secretary
for Foreign Affairs, gave notice that he should move on Wednes-
day, that the House be adjourned nntil the 14th April.
COMMITTSZ OF SUPPLY.
On the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the EX-
CHEQUER, the House resolved itself into a Committee of Supply
on the Miscellaneous Estimates.
Mr. HERRIES moved, that the sum of 40,0001 be
voted to defray the expenses of the Worts and Repairs of Public
Buildings, fur the year 11125.
Mr. HUME wished to know whether the repairs of
the King's Bench Prison were to be defrayed out oi the
fees of the Marshal, as was required by an existing Act of Parlia-
ment, or out of the public money?
Mr. HERMES said, that some doubts existed as to
the exact application of the Act in question; that Act
WAS passed in 1724., and required that part of the tees
received by the Marshal should be appropriated to thy
repairs of the prison ; the prison, however, was desttoyed
in 1780, and many doubts had arisen whether the pro-
visions or the Act applied to the present building. From
1780 to the present time, the repairs had been defrayed
out of the public money, the present prison being much
larger than that of 1784., and it would not be fair to
require the Marshal to defray its expenses. However, the subject
was one most At for the consideration of the House.

Yesterday afternoon, when Mr. MONTAGU was
arguing on a bankrupt's petition before the Vice-Coax•
cam.on, the Court was thrown into a momentary con-
fusion, is consequence of a crowd of persons rushing
into the Court. They were alarmed, it seemed, at the
sudden and unetpected appearance of a mad bullocks
which entered Lincoln's-inn by Chancery-lane, pursued
by a party of boys, butchers, and dogs. The infuriated
animal endeavoured to enter the doors of the Court,
but a person who had fled from it, and who had ef-
fected his security, closed them just as the ballock
was at the threshold. The animal then turned round,
and ran into Carey-street, followed by a numerous
party of assailants.

Saturday evening a young female, of the name of Mary Wale*,
was brought before the sitting klagi3trate, cn a charge of having
robbed her mistress, the Lady of the late General Fawcett, of two
notes, one for Xio, the other for

Ballard, the officer who took her into custody, stated that in
bringing the prisoner along she requested to have a glass of water, as
she was extremely thirsty; he therefore took her into a public-house
and requested a glass of water, when he observed her to empty
.something in it, and instantly drink it off. Suspecting it was poison,
hr taxed her with it, but this she denied, although she observed that
she would not live ender the imputation of guilt. Upon this being
made known to the Magistrate, Mace, the messenger was dispatched
fur medical aid, and quickly returned with Mr. Keats. This Gen-
tleman, upon arriving at the Office, said he should think from her
appearance that the supposition was ill founded, and Lady A. Faw.
nett was about to give her evidence, when the unfortunate girl fell
down senseless. 3letlical aid was instantly resat ted to, when be.
fore they could administer an emetic she was forced to be held by
five persons, and the antidote to be given through a funnel ; upon
its taking the desired effect, she threw up a considerable quantity
of oxalic acid, when she was taken into the air ; the change occa-
sioned fits to come on, which lasted a considerable time, when she
was removed to St. James's Infirmary. The examination of her
case was to have come on yesterday, but owing to her extreme 111.
nets, it was still further postponed.
A young man, of respectable appearance, named Martin Stock,
was charged before the Magistrate, with attempting to defraud
Mi. Vaughan, a boot-maker, of the Strand, of two pair of boots.
Mr. Hawses attended for the accused ; and after a good deal of
discussion, the prisoner was discharged.
Tux FABRICATE. RZSPECTEUI 111X1RHEAD..-.A further
inquiry took place yesterday, in the private room of this office re-
specting the letter addressed to Mr. Spilsbury, which was signed
Joseph Evans, senior, and dated from the house of Mr. Harnett,

mind Mr. Harnett to lend him all the assistance in their power to
bring the author of the letter to justice.

above Journal, came yesterday to this office to enter into his own
recognizance in the sum of £2OO, to appear at the Sessions of
Cierkeuwell to answer any charge which might be exhibited against

and all his Majesty's subjects.
Tae Lars POLICIZ Aon—ln consequence of the provisions of the
late l'olice Act, the Magistrates are empowered to swear in the
servants of any place of public amusement as special constables. In
pursuance of this Act, nine persons, the servants of the Theatre
Royal, Covent Garden, were sworn in as special constables, before
Sir R. Blame, to serve that office for twelve months, or so long leas
than a year as they should be servants of Covent Garden Theatre.

A man named George Dario was brought before Sir 11. lizatas,
charged with robbing the house of Mr. Yeoman, a Gentleman re-
siding at Turnham-green. At ten o'clock on Sunday morning, Mr.
Yeoman left the house perfectly safe. When he returned, at seven
o'clock in t►t: evening, be found that the house bad been broken
open, and several valuable •articles of jewellery removed from a
drawer on the first floor. Two persons residing in the neighbour.
hood had observed four persons coming over the garden wall of
Mr. Yeoman, on the afternoon of Sunday. They were pursued,
and the prisoner overtaken.. When at the watch-house he was
searched, and a gold neck chain, a pearl necklace, and other articles
which bad been in the house of Mr. Yeoman, were found on him.
lie was fully committed for trial.

because be remonstrated against the coachman's racing, was re-
peatedly insulted, and at last, when he left tbe,coach. and refused
the guard 2s. for his insolence, the fellow threatened to detain the
luggage, and forcibly swung 31r. Pack into the road.

GUILDHALL

Thomas Richardson, a clerk with the money-lending firm of
Messrs. Coster, Casey, and Custer. of Staining-lane, was brought
before Mr. Alderman Cox, yesterday, charged with forgery.
It appeared that an advertisement inserted in The Miriam Chro-
nicle some months ago, offering an advance of money upon good
security, and requesting letters to be addressed to John Camp, Riq.
at the New York Coffee-house, attracted the notice of a Mr.
Graham, of Chester, paper-maker, and who was then in want of
London,6oo/. He accordingly wrote to ndon, and received for answer
a printed letter, that Mr. Camp had banded over Mr. Graham's
proposals to Messrs. Coster and Co. who would do as he required.
A negotiation ensued, in consequence of whicb Mr. Graham re-
ceived five bills to the amount of 7001. front Messrs. Coster, as part
security for which be sent to them a large quantity of paper, and
491. in money, as payment of their charge for commission, &c. Ile
subsequently remitted to them two bills for 1241. requesting them,
as his London correspondents, to make a certain payment. This,
however, they had not done, but placed the bills to his credit, in
their account with hint. In consequence of this appropriation, the
amount due to Mr. Graham had swelled to 217.1. in payment of
which they sent him the half of a 51. bank-note, and a bill, dated the
30th of August last, at three months, for 198/. drawn by the pri-
soner Richardson, upon Wm. Robinson and. Co. of No. 4, Great
Waterloo-street, Surrey-road. An inquiry as to the parties to one
of the first bills, led Mr. Graham to send this for Inspection to Mr.
Alderman Wood, and to request a friend to call on the drawer and
see that it was a genuine acceptance. The acceptor yesterday
(Richardson having in the interim been apprehended upon suspicion
of forging the acceptance,) came forward to avow his signature.
Under these circumstances the charge of forgery fell to the
ground; and Mr. Miller, the Solicitor for the prosecution, begged
, that the prisoner might be remanded, as he had grounds for be
Hearing that be should establish a charge against hitu of conspiring
to defraud, and that he was not a clerk but a principal in the firm
of Coster and Co.

Mr. Alderman Cox, however, thought that as this inquiry might
lead to the detection of the most extensive system of swindling ever
known, and as he had the prisoner before him, he would afford time
to bring up evidence wltich would make out a tangible charge
against him.
On the application of Mr. HARRIER, the prisoner was allowed to
procure bail if he could, and the examination was adjourned till
Thursday.
London, England, 1825-09-27

Mu. ()WEN.

A meeting was held last night at the Mechanics
Theatre, Southampton-buildings, in consequence of a
'minted circular, i'iviting " those who ate sincerely
desirous of improving the condition of mankind in ge-
ne, al , and those especially who suffer the most from
the innumerable and complicated evils which must
continue to exist while society remains as at present
constituted, to investigate the met its of the London Co-
operation Society's new system of social arrangements."
Soon after seven o'clock, the theatre being quite
thronged. Dr. Tucker was called to the chair, and
opened the business of the meeting by reading from the
circular abovementioned the principles of the Society's
system, which were founded on " mutual co-operation
in the production, and perfect equality in the distribu-
tion of all the means of enjoyment—principles that, by
uniting the .individual and social interests of mankind
(which ought never to have been separated), will lead
to the highest possible state of human happiness, and
remove all the obstacles, physical and moral, by which
its attainment has been hitherto retarded."

Mr. OwxN then entered the room, and was greeted
with loud plaudits. He immediately entered upon a
long lecture, in which, with a model of one of his pro-
jected establishments before him, he developed the
principles of his system, and stated its details at great
length. The public, however, have been so long fami-
liar with these, that it is unnecessary to repeat them
here. He then argued at some length in favour of the
advantages that would result to mankind from the
general adoption of this system ; contending that by
correcting the present misapplication of the powers of
society, it would increase their means of happiness ten-
fold. He conchided by moving a series of resolutions,
expressive of the great defects of the present constitu-
tion of society, the misery resulting, therefrom; the
necessity, therefore, of introducing an improved social
system; the practicability of establishing such a system,
as proved by the societies of Quakers, Moravians, Har-
monists, icc. and, finally, the determination of the meet-
ing to establish an experimental society upon this system
within a short distance of London.

TILL' LONDON UNIVERSITY.

A Prospectus of the plan of the -bare Ins itutien is in
ciikii!ation. Tie object of the Institution is vatf!ti to be
to Ening the means of a complete scien•dic and literary
eJocation home to the doors at the inhabitants of the
metropolis, so that they may b enabled to educate their
sons at a very mocha ate expense, and under their own
immediate and constant supeautendance. It is k town
that a young man cannot be maintained and instructed
at Oxford or Cambridge under 2001. or 2.50/. a-year,
while the expenses of many v:ry far exceed this suns;
and the vacations last about fire months in the year.—
The whole expense a education at the London Univer-
sity will not exceed 251. or 301. a-year*, including the
sums, paid to the general fund; and there will not be
more than ttn weeks of vacation in the year.

Aouitable piece of ground for the buildings and walks,
and in a central situation, is now in treaty for; and it
is expected that the structure will be completed in Au-
gust, 1826, and the classes opened in October following.
.LA. fortnight's vacation will be allowed at Christmas and
Easter, and six weeks from the middle of August to the
end of September.
The money being raised by shares and contribution%
each holder of a }oo& share will receive interest on the
same, at a rate not exceeding Jour per cent. payable
half yearly, and he entitled to send one student to .the
University. The shares will be transferable by sale and
bequest.; And they will descend to the holder's repre-
sentatives in case of intestacy. The money shoran them
will be paid by instalments, as it may•be required ; but
it is caieulated.,thae only two-thirds will be. called for;
and the rentaininp23 per cent. will be considered as a
fund of reserve, in case of any extension of the plan, or
'other unfavourable exioencies. Nn person can hold
more than ten shares.- Each contributes. of 501. wi:l
haveall the privileges of shateholder s during his life, ex-
cept that of receiving interest, and transferring his Jights.
The interest will be paid out•of the revenues if thc
Institution, and the yearly produce of the suns received
from time to time beyond what is required fur current
expenses. .
• This supposes a Student to attend five or six of the general
dasses ;' but the medical education is nte,ssatily more ezpensire,
from the costs of the anatomical dcpartcntet.

CuLONEt. OLIV/IRL

A Spanish °Meer of some celebrity hat escaped from
the 'fangs of Ferdinand V:1: and is safely airived in
London. It is Lieutenant-Colnnel Jose Olivari, bent:
known in Spin as the " ;sladirran of Sarilgt:ssa." Col.
Olivari was confined nke yewrs ago at Saragossa, by
order of Ferdinand, fer havieg declared himself a
friend to literty ; and he would have been hanged it
he had not so well counterfeited madness that his perse-
tntors were deceived, and waited for an hour of sarity
that they might glut their vengeance, and at the same
time afflict their victim. The most horrible means were
taken to try if Otivari was really mad. IncreJible as
it may appear, i.. is nevertheless a fa t, that he was
chained upright for sixteen months in his dengeon, tk-
cept at the periods when he was dragged before. the
Tribunal. The firmwss of Olivari enabled him- to re-
.sist all the efforts of his perrecutors to discover that he
was not mad, and his constitut'on witlistrod the attacks'
which were made upon it. Ile was released at the j
Revolution, and served the Cortcs faithfully. About
'two years and a half ago he was at Aladtid .at thel
King's levee. " Are you not the Madman of Sara-1
goisa r said Ferdinand. " I am, Sire." ~ You see"
said Ferdinand, laughing, to his Courtiers. 0. the 04
i adage is true—it •takes a wise man to make a fool.",
:At the fall if the Constitution, o.ivari was again int..:
poisoned, and a few weeks ago was to have been
hanged, but escaped by jumping over the wolf of his
•ri-on-yard, and has thrown himself on the hospitality
of Laglishmen.

Electricus has lately been examined by the tisiao
sacanx. The greater, number were satisfied with a
single- touch, and consequent shock ; but one doctor,
either urged by a grettes4 zeal for science, or goveraed
by amore insatiable Curiosity, resolved to try the ut-
most extent of the animals powers, and seised it with
both his hands, but had quickly reason to repent his
temerity, for be immediately felt a rapidly repeated
series of the' most violent and successively increasing
shocks, which forced him to leap about in the most
extraordinary manner, and to utter the most piercing
screams, from the agony that he felt. He then fell
into convulsions, in consequence of which his muscles
became violently contiacted,- or from some strange
property in the fish, it became impossible to detach the
animal from his grasp. In this situation he remained
a considerable time, and -*cold in all probability
have expired under the agony of his sensations, it some
