CORN EXCHANGE, MARK-LANE, MARCH 1.

The arrivals of all descriptions of Grain last week were only mo-
derate, but of Flour it was large. This mOrning there is again only
a moderate supply of Wheat and Oats at market, hut tolerable good
quantities of Barley, Beans, and Peas. Prime Wheat has met a
free sale at 2s. per quarter advance on the terms of Monday last,
other qualities have not been taken off freely, owing to the conti-
nued dulness in the Flour trade. Barley fully supports the terms
of this'day se'nnight. Beans have met with a few buyers at nearly
the same prices as last quoted. White Peas and Grey Peas are
rather cheaper, but they are nearly all sold. There has been a fair
demand for Oats to-day, and the hest parcels have rather exceeded
last Monday's quotations. Rape Seed is £l. to £2. per last lower.

ERROR IN TUENORTH POLAR DISTANCE OF THE
• • FIXED STARS.

- - -
It appears 'that some strange anomalies in the re-
corded places of some of the ppincipal fixed stars, haVe
'been lately discovered. Not that the learned. compute'dans 8f MaskelTne and Flamstead, in England ;'and of
Bode aq,d Piaui, on the Continent, are by any means
'et-raucous, but since their time some new and curious
discoveries in the atmospherical refraction have been
made:• in consequence of which it has appeared that
tables of mean refraction must be made for each obser-
vatory,'and that consequently all the places of the stars, ,
as corrected by general tables, will be fount:l,lo err. We
understand the Meteorological Society of London are
at present investigating this important subject and that
it has been discovered that different stars require also a'
diff;:rent correction.

We have received files of the New York Papers to the
17th of August, with Boston and Baltimore Journals of
a late date, from which we have given extracts in a pre-
ceding column. The domestic intelligence of the New
York Papers is not of much interest: they give at con,
siderable length, the details of the preparations for the
reception of the Marquis de la FAYETTE, who landed
from the Cadmus in good health on the 14th August, with
his son, GEORGE WASHINGTON LA FAYETTE, and
ceeded, by invitation, to the house of the Vice-President,
on Staten Island. The venerable Marquis is represented
to be " in excellent spirits, full of conversation, and re-
joiced beyond measure in having set his foot upon Ame-
rican ground, talking with several of his revolutionary
comrades on old events, being very agreeable, commu-
nicative, and happy." The military preparations for the
reception of the Marquis in the City of New York are
on the most extensive scale ; in compliment to him the ci
tizens generallyhave mounted the revolutionary cockade.
The New York Papers of the 3d and 4th August,
contain some important news from Peru ; but the
details are so confused, and the discrepancies so
glaring, that the accounts should be read with consi-
derable caution. Without perplexing our readers with
them, we may state the substance of the additional in-
formation from Peru, received by the present arrival, to
be as follows :—lt is affirmed, that soon after the
loss of Callao by the Independents, news arrived to the
Spanish Royalist troops in Peru, of the abolition of the
Constitutional Government of Spain; on the receipt of
which, most of them refused to acknowledge the abso-
lute King. Availing himself of this circumstance,
Bolivar immediately returned to Callao, and was joined
by a great number of Spanish troops, as also by the
factitn in Peru which bad before opposed him. lie had

Smuts, piplar, a journeyman silk weaver, was sent to the
House of Correction for fourteen day% for leaving a piece of IEO
yards of silk, which he had undertaken t• work, unfinished. lie
had engaged with another master, and returned the unfinished
piece to the complainant.

Several days ago, the butler of the Honourable Mrs.
MAITLAND MACKOILL, Barham Cottage, while pruning
some trees in the shrubbery, had one of his fingers
pricked by an old stump, it is said, of the barberry,
which, in a short time, became very rwich inflamed,
and extended over his whole arm. The inflammation
in his finger and arm soon subsided, but was tollowel
by the formation of a tumor in the arm-pit, and in-
flammation in his breast and chest. Medical ai.l
called in, when he was copiously bled ; hut nwtvitl3-
standing which, the inflammation continued t:) extend
over his body, and ultimately occasioned his death on
that day week on which his finger received the injury.
TIII/NDER. STORNI IN Tug NORTH.—The weather
which has, in Yorkshire, lately been so exceedinAly op.
pressive with beat, assumed a very different aspect be-
tween - five and six o'clock on Thursday evening last,
about five miles from Darlington, and thence nearly to
Northallerton. The overcharged clouds burst arnidst
tremendous peals of thunder, and the most vivid flashes
of lightning ever remembered. The rain was Inexpres-
sibly heavy, and it is hoped, 'prevented the lightning
from doing much injury, as we have not yet heard of any
very serious effects having been produced by it. It is
however, worthy of remark, that the passengers in
the Shields coach saw the storm at seven miles dis-
tance, whilst they themselves enjoyed a smiling coun-
try and a cloudless sky.

Sunday last the house and-shop of Mr. Adams, a re-
spectable broker, living in the London road, St. George's
fields, was entered by some thieves, and several bank-
notes, about 23 sovereigns, and an old guinea, to the
amount of nearly 401. together with a quantity of plate
and other articles of considerable value, stolen therein.
A bee-hive belonging to William Pratt, in Mill of
Tifty, parish of Fyvie, swarmed this season so early as
the 7tb of June ; which first or top swarm has produced
three swarms since, viz. July 14th and 26th, and 2d of
August; these swarms have all thriven well; and, if
the weather continue favourable for their operations a
short time, all of them will be able to stand the winter.

•! This Maple a wen' andent straidure,•fotthe maintenance at
ewldpn a ventage was granted' by Edward the First, in the year
1240, and afterwards continued by Edward the Third and Richard
the Se iond, for limited periods. Though one of the greatest tho-
roughfares in the' kingdom, its aukerard situation and unskilful
conadiction have long been the terror sof the traveller and the
reproach of the Magistracy of Middlesex. Serious accidents have
frequently happened there, and his late Mussy: had more than
once been delayed for a considerable time in his 'progress from
Windsor to St. James's. At length these evils are likely to be re-
medied by the erection of a new bridge at the expense of the county.
The Srst stone was laid on Friday last, with the usual ceremony,
by Colonel Jams arrnintow, a very active and respectable Magis-
trate, whose ancestors for. ISt; year* past have resided at Boston
House, in the vicinity of Brentford.
The band of music belonging to the 7th Hussars preceded the
procession; the beadles and high constables led the way, followed
by the clergymen of the adjoining parishes. Colonel Cirrnithow
followed, supported by Magistrates of the County, the Church-
wardens of Brentford, Rang, and Isleviorth, and a large number
of respectable inhabitants of the several districts, with the petty
constables• to preserve order and regularity. After depositing a
feir coins, thefirst stone was laid in the usual manner, and a suit-
able address delivered to a numerous assemblage of both sexes, who
attended te witness the ceremony, and. formed • a very interesting
spectacle. The national anthem of God save the King" having
been played by the band, the procession returned in the same order
to the Three Pigeons Inn, where a large party sat down to an
elegant dinner, and after many appropriate toasts and songs, the
company separated at a late hour, highly gratihcd- with the • pro-
ceedings of the day.
The bridge is to be of One arch, the materials of the best granite,
and the style of the whole simple and substantial. The situation,
both as respects the current of the river and the direction of the
road, is very judicious:* but the approach at the eastern extremity
is much obstructed by three or four mean houses on the North
side, which, by intercepting the view, and impeding the free access,
materially injure the beauty and utility of the bridge. These
houses, it is to be hoped, will be speedily removed, and thus render
the new bridge a credit to the Magistrate. and the Trustees of the
road, and au important advantage to the neighbourhood and to
the Public.

MARY-LA-BONNE.

Ames Baker was brought up on a charge of horse-stealing.--
About one o'clock yesterday morning, it seems, he went intc
pasture at Beaconsfield, and selected a capital bay gelding, with
which he rode off at full speed. The noise aroused a farmer, who,
suspecting what had happened, jumped out of bed, and alarmed
his neighbours; and Mr. Rolfe, the owner of the animal, set off in
pursuit, upon his best hunter. The thief, however, had the "a.:
by at least 12 miles; but stopping to steal another horse at Hayes
(about 17 miles from Reacon,field), the property of Mr Kim?,
his pursuer gained fast on him, and finally came up with the ma-
rauder, on Ealing Common, about four o'clock. The thief, findirg
he was discovered, made a desperate blow with a bludgeon at Mr.
Rolfe, but missed his aim, and after a short struggle w.►s unhorred.
He re-mounted, however, on Mr. Kemp's horse, and gallupped off;
but after several narrow escapes, and being fired at, he was even-
itany secured at Acton.—Fully committed.

FOE THE IMMEDIATE CURE AND PREVENTION

OF SORE NIPPLES.

THE ACACIA CERATE, prepared from a Plant
growing on the Mountains in the Nast Indies, and one of the
'vest valuable in the vegetable world, is the greatest possible com-
; .z.t that can be rendered to those happy mothers who are desirous
nurse their infants, but who suffer too frequently under the pain
',id misery of sore nipplee, and all its'attendant consequences. The
"ual application ef stimulants, which seldom or ever afford even
umporarp relief, and in numberless instances only aggravate the
pain of the sufferer, may now be avoided by the use of this per.
reedy innocent and sanative compound, which is offered to mothers,
from a conviction that to withhold so great a comfort from them,
would be an act of cruelty and injustice. Innumerable testimonials
!f its recellence from the most respectable authority can be given,

WINDSOR, DEC. 19.—This morning tkis Man
heard Divine Serflike performed for the first time in his
new private Chapel, contiguous to the Royal Lodge,
The KING was accompanied by the principal part of his
suite, wbo sat
.in the various pews allotted to them,
together.with the Royal Household, who occupied the
remaining seats in the Chapel, which, for its compact.
ness and splendour, surpasses anything 'we ever Wit-
flossed. The Service was performed by his MAJESTY'S
Chaplain, the Rev. Mr. Summtn.
Yesterday, his Majesty held a Council in the State
apartments, Windsor Castle, at which a Proclamation
was signed for farther proroguing Parliament to the 3,1
of February, then to meet for the dispatch, of business.
The KING, we are happy to state, appeared in the
full enjoyment of health, and acknowledged with the
greatest affability the loyal reception which he received
from the inhabitants. A guard of honour of the Gre.
nadier Guards was stationed, at the entrance to theCtstle,
who saluted his MAJESTY on his art ival and depal tuft.
London, England, 1824-12-20

THE KING'S COURT.

A Court and Privy Council was summoned to meet
at two o'clock on Saturday, at Windsor Castle.
His MAJESTY and Suite necessary to hold a Court,
arrived at the Castle from the Royal Lodge, at a quar-
ter past two o'clock, in two carriages., Every arrange-
ment being made for commencing a Court, Mr..Se.cre.
tary PEEL had an audience of the KING lb officiate for
the Lord President of the Council, in the absence of the
Earl of HARROWRY, who is abroad, to lay before his
MAJESTY the business to be submitted to his MAJESTY
for his commands. There were present—
The First Lord of the Treasury, the Chancellor of the Escheauer,
the Secretaries of State for the Home, Foreign, arid Colonial
partments, the Lord Prjvy Seal, the President of the Board of
Trade, the Lord Steward of the Household, lir. Fremantle, Sir
ililgrove Turner (Groom in Waiting), &c.
Lord ERSKINE was introduced to 'his MAJESTY by
Mr. Secretary CANNING, and kissed hands, upon his
being appointed Minister to the Court of Wurtemburg.
Lord Viscount STRANGFORD was also introduced to his
MAJESTY by Mr Secretary CANNING', on his return from
his Embassy to the GRAND &onion, at Constantinople.
The KING held a Privy Council, at which l'Arltartre..t
was farther prorogued from the 6th of January to the
3d February, then to meet for the dispatch of business.
His MAJESTY gave audiences to Mr. Secretary CAN•
NINO and Earl BATHURST.
The Court broke up at five, when his MAJESTY and
Suite returned to the Royal Lodge to dinner.
The Noblemen and Gentlemen composing the Court left Wind.
soy for London, euept Earl Ilsvuuase, who proceeded to Drop.

with France, especially in Fruit, 14sh, and Game, and all perish-
...
certain

conveyance, will be simul-

able articles requiring rapid and
taneoualy increased.
Hitherto the Boats and small craft of thq French coast have
been excluded from the Thames by the Port-duties, and have been
prevented from landing their various French produce in the Ports
of Kent, by the difficulty aftd expense of conveying it to London :
these impediments will now be removed ; the Railway branching
through the County to every Town upon the Coast, and from the
Coast to the interior of the County, will make Kent the centre of
our trade with France, and will render Canterbury and Dover com-
mercial towns of the rst importance.
It is therefore confidently believed, that of all the plans for re-
ducing the expense of carriage, which have been contemplated, the
Kent Railway will be the most profitable to the Share-holders, and,
the most beneficial to the County and to the Public at large. It pos-
sesses great and peculiar advantages. The returns will not be de.'
layed, as is usual in similar undertakings, untll%the whole line of
communication is complete, but will commence as soon as the Rail-
way reaches Woolwich, and will become :eery great indeed when it
extends thirteen miles further to Gravesend. Interfering with no
vested interests, the Kentish Railway will probably meet with no
obstruction in Parliament, and may be expected to receive the
countenance and support of Government. in consequence of afford-
ing a cheaper and more rapid communication with the great Naval
and Military Depots.
This Company will be governed by Agbteen London Directors,
who are empowered to add to their number Twelve Gentlemen
selected from the County of Kent, whose Names will appear in a
short time ; and who will have the right of attending, when con-
venient, at the Meetings of the Directors in London, and of voting
thereat. The Capital of the Company is One Million, consisting et
Ten Thousand Shares, of A'loo'each, on which a Deposit of aftl
has been paid. As early an application to Parliament will be made
for an Act to carry these objects into effect as the number and imp
penance of the prior arrangements will admit. No further call
will certainly be made until June next; nor even at that time, un-
less the Act of Parliament for establishing the Company shall have
been obtained. No future calls will exceed £5 in amount at any
one time; and every facility will be given to the Shareholders, in
the transfer of their Shares, and jti paying the Instalments which
will be required.
Any farther information can be obtained at the Offices of the
Company, No. 49, Poultry, where all communications are in fu.
tine to be addressed.

By Order of the Directors,

At Comburch Lis&pose to construct a small basin
11AI tide lock ; but instead of the general intercourse
living forced to enter the River garret at this place,
and follow its circuitous mete amongst irregular mud
banks, the canal line is cor.tinned about. three miles and
a half along level ground to the south-west angle of
Bridgewater Bay, at Stolford, where it.will terminate in
an extensive basin and artificial harbour, to be described
Ender the third head.
From the northern extremity of the summit level to
this place the distance is '2O miles three furlongs. Of
this distance 15i miles have only two locks, and they
are all considerably to the South of BridAewater. The
total distance from Beer Harbour to Bridgewater Bay
is 44 miles five furlongs; the fall from the summit to
high water at an ordinary tide in Bridgewater Bay is
231 feet, but by taking a different tide at Beer the fall
was found to be 233 feet.
The ground along the Canal line, consisting generally
of clays, marls, or other substances which will retain
water, appears (as far as could in the course of a hasty
survey be ascertained) very suitable for Canal operations.
At the Northern end of the summit level, and also
on the shore and adjacent to Bridgewater Bay, there is
abundance of Stratisfield Lias limestone, equally suit-
ab!e as building stone and for mortar, which hardens
in water works, a singular advantage where so many
locks, aqueducts, piers, &c. will be required.

you, Sir, it is an unfair proceeding to man his Ma-
jesty's fleet with thieves. It has been wisely deter-
mined to accept of none but honest men there, and I
think they have done wisely."
