LINCOLNSHIRF..

Louts, Nov. 29.—Since writing the annexed, I have just heard of
two incendiary fires, one at South Reston, Mr. Masers, where nine corn
stacks were destroyed yesterday morning; the other at Swabey. where
the whole of the corn stacks, I am informed, are destroyed. The loss
to Mr. &Uwer is about 6001. Mr. Kemp•s loss (of Swabey) I ham:
not ascertained.

ALronu, Nov. 29.-1 am sorry to be under the unplea.ant neces.
any of saying that a large quantity of corn wu consumed yesttwday
morning, a few utiles from this place.
STAMFORD, Nov. am sorry to say ours may now be cunsi.
dered as a disturbed district--the county of Huntingdon, and within
eight miles of Stamford, was in riot on Saturday, but the pe.uouttry's
object at present is only for destroying thrashing machines. The villa-
gers of Sawtry and Alconbury are the ringleaders, and I lament to say
have reason for complaint, being irregularly employed, and wages very
low. We believe the town of Oundle is in riot to-day, the poor there
are badly managed. About fifty horsemen are just returned from
Oundle, and the result is, that no damage was done. The riot was
caused by a set of drunken characters, who spend their time in public-
houses.

Sir J. Trollope and about a braced men on horseback proceed ed
from this place to disperse the rioters, and came up with an armed
body, who hi:losciatured about twenty of them. They were lodged
safely In Hondo on gaol. The mob attacked the gaol at Oundle. and
made some on a part of the prison, but by timely assistance
were driven of, and the prisoners made secure. Eight of the ringleaders
were taken and seas m Northampton gaol ; and in the county
of Hants other captures were made, which made a total of forty.four
I captured.
SPILSBY, Nov. 29—The fires hare increased in this. neighbour-
hood. lam sorry to say at Irby, near this place, a haystack was fired
on Tuesday evening; she, at Swaby, a considerable quantity of pro-
perty has bees destroyed, belonging to Mr. Kemp. of the value of 1001.
At Reston, a village about three miles south of Louth. nine stacks of
sass, Az. were oosummed, value about 9001. the property of Mr. Moore;
this is supposed to have originated in malicious revenge, Mr. Moore
having some time ago laid game informations.

TIN MINES OF THE DUCHY OF CORNWALL.

The sale of these important mines produced an extraordinary sena".
don, and the Brat room at the Auction Mart was crowded beyond mea.
sure it ahottfd /OM as if the whole gppaladon pf Cornwall had con.
gregated on this iMportant occasion. /be siMie dine put the change in
misdates, and the previous excitement, had abated the zeal of ',pecu-
lators. On Thursday last it appeared as if all their energies on a acrd.
den were restored, for a competition was produced such as we have
rarely witnessed. Mt. George Robins played the principal pert in this
important drama, and when the curtain rose, he had to boast of an au.
diet= that the winter theatres would be delighted with in the sombre
month of November. He stated that the tin mines extend throughout
the whole Duchy of Cornwall, but the ill state of health of the late
proprietor had prevented his putting forth all his energies, and for the
lest two years they have been almost at a stand still. This was well
known to the long-headed gentlemen Prom Cornwall, and, releing
upon this as a fair excuse for deteriorating its value, many ques.
dons were put with • view to elicit from Mr. Robins the precise
annual income. He avoided this with no little tact and ingenuity,
explained why it bad not been eminently successful, and concluded by
proclaiming it would proves mine of wealthodding that he had very little
doubt that In twenty years, with a corresponding capital to begin with, it
would not merely prove a mine of immense gain, but he doubted
if the income would not approximate upon a large revenue which
the great Mr. Rothschild was known to ponces. The profits for ten
years past (from the circumstances before alluded to), did not exceed
500 L a year. He, however, had no doubt that it would quickly pro.
gress until 90,0001. a year could be realized. The first offer was .0,000
guineas ; and the Cornish folks, who, it is known, travel by the safcty
coach (meaning thereby, are ray wary), bid 1,000 guineas at a bidding
until it reached 15,000 guineas, and then proceeded, 500 guises'
at a time, until it reached 18 500 guineas, at which it was finally
knocked down. This•valuable lease was granted by the late King. to
right of the Duchy and as Duke of Lancaster, and it is whispered has
again become the property of the Crown. Some mining copper shares
were afterwards sold, the profits of which appear to be immenae • it is
called " the Weal Leisure.," and Mr. Robins showed a favourable re-
turn of nearly 100 per cent. on the original capital.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF LORDS, Dec. 1.
BILL.

Tne House was lighted with the extra chandeliers, and their Lord-
ships met pursuant to summons for the purpose of advancing the Rt.-
gency Bill.
Lord LYNDHURST, after some private conversation with Earl
Grey, moved the order for going into Committee upon the Regency Bill.
The House accordingly resolved itself into Committee.
In consequence of the absence of the Earl of Shaftesbury, the Earl of
Rosalyn officiated as Chairman of the Committee.
After the Bill had been read, clause after clause, and several verbal
amendments had been , introduced by Lord Lyndhurst, it passed
through the Committee without the least opposition, and the report was
ordered to be received on Friday.

REFORM IN THZ SCOTCH MOILOUOIIS.
Lord WHARNCLIFFE promoted a petition from the merchants
and members of the Corpsßadom 1 Perth, praying for reform in the
made of electing members Smelt Boroughs. The noble lord ob-

don of Parliament ? The noble Earl repressed a hope that the question
would be taken up during the present Session ; but he could not sup-
pose that it would take precedence of the many highly important sub-
teats then pressing upon Parliament. He should suggest that a Com-
mittee be appointed to Inquire whether slavery could be abolished its
tote, or whether it could continue under modification. He thought
their Lordships had information enough before them to act upon the
question.
Petitions to the same effect were presented by the Archbishop of
Canterbury, the Marquis of Bute, Lord Wharnclife, and the Mar-
quis of Cleveland.
The House then adjourned.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

An Express has been received in town this morning, with
the latest Paris Papers. An official decree appears in the
Mo,:iteur, granting to the Minister of the Interior a vote of
credit to the amount of the millions, for the public works.
The Constitutionnel publishes a letter from Liege, dated
the 9th of September, by which it appears that troops are
fist concentrating on the Prussian frontiers; and—adds the
letter—`• we are of the opinion of those who fear they will
enter Belgium." At the same time, it is confidently stated,
that the Ambassadors of the Four Great Powers, have inti-
mated the intentions of their respective Governments, not to
oppose the separation of Flanders from Holland.
The Constitutionnel further informs us, that advices were
received from the Hague of an extraordinary Council being
thereupon held, composed of the Ministers and Councillors
of State, who resolved unanimously on the separation of
these dominions; and likewise that the KING has expressed
his concurrence in that important measure.

With respect to the affairs of France, we perceive that
anquillity prevails in Paris, and generally throughout the
departments. The official news had just been received in
Paris, that the Court of Vienna had acknowledged the
KING of the FRENCH. The African expedition, under
orders of Admiral DUEERRII, sailed on the sth inst. for
Toulone—one of the ships having General BOURNONT on
board. AU the cannon, meaty, and ammunition, not abso-
lutely wanted for thy conserratiatt of the conquest, had been
alined during the latter part of A'agust.

SPIRIT OF TILE JOURNALS.

Ttsize.—A paragraph has found its way into some of the private
letters from Paris, to the effect that the new French Government has
issued orders to remove the armed bodies of constitutional .t.paniards
assembled on the French side of the Pyrenees. We suspect that in
this formal compliance with the representations of Ferdinand and the
Archbishop of Toledo, the orders of Louis Philip have not antici.
pated by many hours, the designs of the Constitutional Generals them-
selves, nor in any degree embarrassed their proceedings. There are two
aides to the Pyrenees, and it was, we may be assured, with no intention
of remaining on the French side, but, on the contrary, of removing from
it, that the Spanish patriots assembled there in arms.

Trutt.—lt would appear from the German papers, that the Pleci.
potentiaries of the Allied Powers who had been charged with the set-
tlement of the affairs of Greece, gad so long ago as the tad June made
up their minds on two or three points of the highest importance to the
adjustment of the matter confided to them. A letter, purporting to be
official, and bearing the signatures " Aberdeen,* " Montmorency
val," and " Matousewitsch," is given as having at the above date been
addressed by them to Count Cape d'lstrias, assuring that personage.-
first, that his administration of the government of Greece had merited
the high approbation of the Sovereigns, and had induced them to
desire that M. de Cape d'lstriu might continue to govern the
country with the same seal and activity as ever. 2d. They inform
the Count that the last protocol, namely, that (if we remember
right) which had declared the sovereignty of Greece to be in
Prince Leopold, establishing the complete independence of the
new State and prescribing) bee boundaries would not be executed in
any pert, but that another, snail reap mere ratirfactory to Greece,
would be made, and by which would be assigned to ha a more tonpk
extent offrontier, both by land and ma. The third division of the offi-
cial letter is of rather a curious stamp. It declares the intention of their
Dlajesdes, that the Sovereign who is to reign over the new Stet; shall be
" a young Prince; and that year Excellency" (to wit, Capo 119Istriss,)
" shall be his guide and mentor as loft as you live." With regard to
the merits of Count Cape d'lstriaa's aminkoation we are happy, for
the sake of Greece haealf, to Ind that it be been such as tomtit the ea
cemiums bestowed upset it by the Sovereigns, and more espselelly
that the opinion eismanW of it by General Muck and ethers
of our oetweemen, wpm op be so utterly groundless.—

ARRIVAL OF THE DUKE Oi BRUNSWICK.

Our private Correspondent at Dover, in his letter of last
night, announces the arrival of. the Duke of Butmswrca,
in the following words :
" The steam-packet Sovereign, Capt. HAYWARD, arrived
this day from Calais, with his Royal Highness tho Duke of
13R NSW IC x, a Secretary, and one servant.
" His Royal Highness has preceded any account of the re-
volutionary movements that have taken place in his domi-
nions. Persons who came over in the packet, however,
report, that at the period of his Royal Highness's eight,
the greatest disorder prevailed, and that it was with the ut-
most difficulty his personal safety was preserved.
" A royal salute was fired on his Royal Highness's arrival,
and a guard of honour stationed at Wright's Hotel during
hi. stay. His Royal Highness started for town.".

ANOTHER LETTER FROM DOVER.

" Arrived from Calais this morning tho Sovereign steamer,
Captain HAYWARD, having on board his Serene Highness
the Duke of BRUNSWICK and suite. His Highness's arri-
val being unexpected, the Garrison did not salute at landing ;
but soon after he had reached the Ship Inn, the compliment
was paid his Highness. We sincerely regret to add, that it
is reported, that the cause of the Duke's sudden visit to this
country, is the insurrectionary state of his subjects in Bruns-
wick, and the menacing insults offered to his Highness by
the audience and populace a few nights since, when occu-
pying his seat at the Theatre, and on his retreat therefrom."

Accounts are given by the passengers in the Sovereigx
steamer, that the tri-coloured cockade bad been boldly ex-
hibited in Prussia, by officers as well as civilians ;—who say,
that the KING had promised them a Constitution on the ter-
mination of the war; but which they have not yet got.

ANECDOTES OF FUSEL!.

In a pecuniary point of view Fuseli's pictures of the
Milton Gallery were unproductive; but the praise which
the attempt and much of the execution obtained grad-
fied.the painter, nor was be unwilling to believe, that,
like the poem which they embellished, they would have
but an age of oblivion and many centuries of light.
They were all visible, he said, to his fancy before he
painted them. He pondered over the poet till he was
fully possessed with the character of the scene ; the
figures which belonged to it appeared as it were in a
vision : but he nevertheless complained of the splendour
in which his fancy invested them, and declared that he
could not paint up to his imagination. In comparing
those splendid fictions with living nature, he was struck,
he often said, with the lamentable deficiencies of the
latter ; yet conscious that by nature he must be tried and
judged, he was heard to exelaim in a fit of peevishness,
" Damn Nature !—she always puts me out." He had
sometimes the curiosity to walk into the Milton Gallery
after it was opened to the public, as it was never very
crowded, he could look at his works without much fear
of interruption. One day a visitor accosted him, mis-
taking hilt for the keeper. " Those paintings, Sir, are
from Paradise Lost, I hear, and Paradise Lost was written
by Milton—l hays never read the poem, but I shell read
it now." " I would not advise you, Sir," said the sar-
castic artist, " you will find it an exceedingly tough
job." In the original sketch of the guardian angels for-
saking our first parents after the fall, they were repre-
sented rising on wings. He looked earnestly at his
sketch, and exclaimed—for he generally thought aloud—
`! They shall rise without wings." He tried and sue-
ceedeti.
Fuseli was, on the whole, liked as Keeper of the Royal
'Academy. It is true that be was often satiric and se-
vere on the students—that he defaced their drawings by
corrections which, compared to their weak and trembling
lines, seemed traced by a tar-mop, and that he called
them tailors and bakers, and vowed that there was more
genius in the claw of one of Michael Angelo's eagles
than in all the heads with which the' Academy was
swarming. The youths on whom this tempest of invec-
tive fell—and the Keeper, pleased by submission, walked
Rto each as a word of advice onfides-
Sally, and retired in peace to enjoy the company of Ole
Homer, Michael Angelo, Dante, enjoy. the

STEAM OMNIBUS.

TO THE RDITOII OF THE STAR.
Stn•—l see you have fallen into the same error .A.s
many of your contemporaries, respecting a Steitai
Omnibus which appeared yesterday in Portland-place
and Oxford-street—it was Mr. GURNEY'S, not Mr.
BRATIIWAITNIF.'S. It proceeded from Mr. Gv lINEY'S
factory, Albany-street, at two o'clock, and continued
running for an hour to the top of Regent-street and back
again: the distance is nearly two n.ilea and a half. The
rate was between six and seven miles an hour, it not being
advisable to put on the whole force of the steam in the
public streets. We were told it was Mr. GUItNEY'.4
intention to run it every day for a fortnight on the same
line of road, previous to its starting for the conveyance
of the public on some well-frequented road. No smoke
MS perceptible ; however, we observed it took a fresh
supply of water every twenty minutes. It is a great pity
a greater quantity of water is not carried with it, so that
it can work an hour continually without stopping. If
Mr. GURNEY can achieve that, it appears there can be nu
obstacle to the success of this machine : until then, it
will only be an ingenious plaything. DELTA.

ZETA OF THE POST.
London, England, 1830-01-29

TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR.

Sin—l have just finished the perusal of a letter in
the Morning Post, written by a ministerial hack named
" ZRTA," in which, after praising the enormous weight
of taxation, which we are now compelled to bear, Mr.
PEEL'S Bill of 1819; and the Free Trade System, the
writer modestly tells the people that they must wait pa-
tiently for a return of prosperity, without expecting any
thing from WATERLOO and his cabal!!! As you gene-
rally possess the moat correct information upon political
points, perhaps you will have the kindness to inform rde
whether this is the same person as the "ZETA" of 1827,
who joined in the ultra Tory howl set up against the late
Mr. Cs): x ISO ? If so, I have a few words to say to
him about his consistency.

Froiddenfieth arrived here yesterday, and the day before, and this
morning two Blankener boats from Holland arrived here, direct

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF LORDS-MONDAY.
DUTY OX SPIRITS.

The Earl of ROtaEBERY presented a petition most respectably
signed, from the farmers of Linlithgow, against the proposed addl.
tional duty on British spirits. The noble Earl said that the peel.
!tuners expressed their apprehension that the additional duty medi.;
tated to be laid on British manufactured spirits would prove pre.
judicial to their interests, as growers of barley and oats. Fur his
min part, although he was persuaded of the high respectability of
the petitioners, he was opposed to them in their apprehension re-
specting the probability of their interests suffering from the in-
creased duty on spirits, being of opinion that so entail an addition
to the duty which now existed would not affect the petitioners.

CRIMINAL LAW.

Mr. Secretary PEEL presented a petition from a Society of
Friends in Ireland, praying for a mitigation of the severity of the
Criminal Code, and especially for the abolition of the punishment
of death for forgery. Although he would not himself consent to go
the whole length of the prayer of the petitioners, he felt much
pleased and flattered by their entrusting the petition to his we.
Mr. LENNARD expressed his regret at hearing the right hon-
ourable gentleman say that he was not prepared to go tits whole
prayed for by the petitioners, with respect to the punishment
at forgery. He (Mr. Lennard) bad last session introduced a bill on
the subject; and he now gave pollee., that, early after the Easter
holidays, he would again call the attention of the house to it.
Mr. PILL, in explanation. said, that on Wednesday he would
move for leave to bring In a bill to alter and amend the laws respect-
ing forgery. By that bill it would be proposed to abolish the
punishment of death for forgery, in many cases.
The petition was then read, and ordered to be printed.
