Jarvis
to the Fish River had

,broken up a troop of lumbering trespassers, making 5 men
4 horses, and 8 oxen prisoners. Another account says 11
men and all their teams.

General Scott left Boston on Sunday for Portland. On
Saturday he was introduced to the Council by Governor
Everett :

" GENERAL,—I take great pleasure in presenting you to
the members of. the Executive of Massachusetts. I need not
say that you are already well known to tnem by reputation.
They are familiar with your fame, as it is recorded on some
of the most arduous and honourable fields of the country's
struggles. We rejoice in meeting you on this occasion,
charged as you are with a momentous mission, by the Presi-
dent of the United States. We are sure you are entrusted
with a duty most grateful to your feelings—that of averting
an appeal to arms. We place unlimited reliance on your
spirit, energy, and discretion. Should you unhappily fail in
your efforts, under the instructions of the President, to
restore harmony, we know that you go equally prepared
for a still more responsible duty. Should that event un-
happily occur, I beg you to depend on the firm support of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts."

Most of the troops under General ITodsdon had arrived at
Houlton ; another 1,000 under General Batchelder were on
their way thither, and another 1,000 had received orders to
march ; making in all about 3,700 concentrated, or soon to
be, in the disputed territory.
Sir John Harvey had sent an express to Sir John Colborne.
Three companies of regulars were quartered at Woodstock.
The Maine papers say the British troops were strongly dis-
posed to desert, and that a strong guard of provincial militia
were stationed between Woodstock and Houlton, to prevent
the regulars from slipping over the line.
Such is the latest news from the frontier. The next mail
may bring us news of a skirmish, in which case it will be ne-
cessary for all to turn their attention to the Irriasion Bill,
lately passed by Congress, which we here insert, and learn
what duties devolve on the President, and regulate their own
conduct as citizens accordingly:

Tuesday, March 5.
MAINE.—The intelligence from the East is not very im-
portant. The excitement throughout Maine still continues.
The last accounts from the Aroostook state that Mr. Jarvis
was moving down the river to take a position just below the
Little Madawaska, where he proposed to fortify himself on
favorable ground.

" The militia assembled at Augusta were reviewed by Go-
vernor Fairfield on the 26th. On this occasion the Governor
made to them a flaming address. A part of them set out for
the frontier on the 27t11, by detachments, and the rest were
to follow the next day
" The Frederickton Sentinel' states that 1000 British
militia have been drafted for service.

" The tone of the New Brunswick papers is rather moderate
than otherwise, though they still continue to assert the jus-
tice of the British claim to the land in dispute. They think
the General Government will not sanction the course which
Maine has pursued.
" General Scott, who was in Nevi York on Friday, passed
through Boston on Saturday afrernoon on his way to Port-
land.'

Thursday, March 7.
We have no further news from Maine. At the last ac-
counts, the respective generals of two divisions of the Maine
Volunteers were busy in cutting a road that they hoped would
bring them in direct collision—in fact it does appear that the
people of Maine have taken every possible pains to have a
skirmish, and if there is no fighting after all, it will not be
their fault.

It is generally understood that the supporters of the De-
fence Bill intended that Maine should take the responsibility
of provoking a fight ; this is not the case ; for in the debate
upon it, involving the expediency of the late procedure of
Maine in this matter, Mr. Legare, one of the most violent
suporters of the bill, took occasion to say that he wished it
distinctly understood everywhere that those who had re-
ported this bill, and, so far as he knew, those who were its
advocates and friends, did not mean that the State of Maine
should go beyond her just powers. They never would con-
sent that one State should usurp the functions of Congress,
in whose hands are the issues of peace and war.
" Friday, March 8.
" LATEST FROM MAINE.—By the Boston papers of Thurs-
day we learn that the Kennebeck troops left Bangor, on
Monday, at 10 o'clock, A.M. •
" The detachment of light infantry from Cumberland left
Portland the day following. At Augusta, Captain Nathan
Barker was to take the command.

" The Portland Courier of Tuesday says " that the mes-
sage of the President would have very little effect on the
movements of Governor Fairfield. The recommendation of
the President to withdraw the troops from the disputed ter-
ritory would not be complied with, unless Sir John Harvey
removed his forces further from the boundary line ; and even
then the Governor. of Maine would keep a sufficient number
of men on the territory to protect the timber from being cut
and carried off by depredators. No action had been had on
the President's message."

RELATIONS OF ENGLAND WITH THE UNITED
STATES.

SATURDAY, MARCH 9.
The intelligence which goes out to England to-day by the
Liverpool steamer, on the subject of the Maine Boundary
question, will not only create a great sensation throughout
the United Kingdom, but produce a shock, an equal burst of
astonishment from one end of Europe to the other. The po-
sition in which this republic now stands to Europe, makes
her relations with England of the highest importance to the
civilized world.

On the part of this country the question in dispute lies in
a nutshell. We take our stand upon the faith of an obvious
meaning of the treaty of 1783, and England, until her go-
vernment fell into the hands of the present ministry, virtually
acknowledged the obligation of that treaty, by proposing on
several occasions, to run a conventional line. The singular
and extraordinary pretensions of exclusive jurisdiction put
forward by Sir John Harvey, have created many opinions
and many rumours. Some believe that he has exceeded his
instructions—others, that he has had two set of instructions,
one of these confidential, directing him to seize the whole
territory, and if the American government submitted, make
that act the foundation of a valid claim. The concentration
of troops in the Canadas, to restore the authority of the
crown there, while the Canadians appear to have been quite
sufficient to do it of themselves, coupled with the large fleets
in the Gulf of Mexico, may give colour to some intended de-
monstration upon this republic, for the purpose also of divert-
ing the attention of locai parties in England, from internal to
foreign affairs.
But it is aiiparent, that, in the present state of the contro-
versy, with all the light yet shed upon it from the interior of
cabinets, the negociations and motives of both governments
on that question, are yet involved in great and thick mystery.
Can England have a wish to provoke this country into a
war? Is she insensible to the state of her relations with
Russia ? Would not a collision with this republic create a
revolution in her manufacturing districts ? Is she prepared
to sacrifice all her commercial interests with the country, for
the possession of a small strip of territory in Maine ?

LATEST FROM MAINE.

PRESENT POSITION OF THE OPPOSING PARTIES ON THE

BOUNDARY.
As we stated yesterday, the appearance of things upon the
frontier:looks decidedly warlike The 11th regiment has,
ere this, reached New Brunswick from Canada, and probably
the two other regiments that Sir John Colborne has ordered
thither. In addition to these, by this time there are about
1000 regulars concentrated on the border from the different
colonial stations. There are besides about 1000 of the New
Brunswick militia under arms ; so that, although Sir John
Harvey has been to all appearances inactive, and remained
remarkably quiet, still it is evident that he is making every
possible preparation in his power for acting either on the
offensive or defensive, as circumstances shall warrant. In
addition to this, we learn that a swift sailing government
vessel has been despatched from Halifax to the commander
of the squadron in the West Indies, and the commander-in-
thief of the British forces in the West Indies for such troops,
vessels, and other assistance as they can with propriety spare.
When we add to this the fact that cannon, arms, and ammu-
nition, in large quantities, have been forwarded to Frederick,
Woodstock, and the vicinity, we give the sum total of the
warlike preparations made on the part of the British.
On the other hand, the authorities of Maine have been as
active in their preparations for war, as it was possible for
men to be. The excitement that pervades the State of
Maine, and in fact, the whole of the eastern states, is truly
tremendous. Whigs, tories, conservatives, locofocos, radi-
cals, and destructives, think, speak, and act with one voice,
as one man, on the question of war. with England. "We
would rather fight than not," is their cry, " and the sooner
the better."

The Legislature of Maine (without reference to pdrty feel-
ings) has voted a large sum of money to meet the expenses
of the troops ; all the foundries down east are casting cannon
and cannon balls ; all the saltpetre in the Boston market has
been bought up; vessel loads of arms, ammunition and pro-
visions from numerous eastern and southern ports, are daily
arriving at the seaports on the coasts of Maine ; volunteers
are leaving this and other cities by dozens daily, for the con-
templated scene of war ; meetings are being held of hundreds
of volunteer companies in this and other states, and resolu-
tions passz,,cl proffering their services to the State of Maine,
in case they are needed. The Legislature of Massachusetts
talk of appropriating a large sum to assist Maine in the strug-
gle if it occurs ; and in the State of Maine, every able-bodied
man will be in arms on the border line within three days of
the time that the first blood is shed.
Pennsylvania has also come to the help of Maine in a spirit
worthy of the ancient Commonwealth which stood side by side
with Massachusetts in the revolutionary struggle. A joint
resolution has been offered and passed, in the Legislature of
that State, proferring the assistance of Pennsylvania to the
General Government, in the event of a war with England.
A resolution was also passed approving of all that had been
done by Maine. A similar feeling pervades every other state
in the Union, so far as heard from, on this subject.
This is a full and fair outline of the general position of the
boundary business at present. The latest details that reached
us from Houlton, on the border, last night, we can scarcely
credit. They are to this effect :—lt is, in brief, that the
Executive Council of New Brunswick have passed an order
prefaced by a Whereas, in spirit like this :
" Whereas, we have learned that the trespassers are going,
or Save gone—up from Carlton, on to the disputed territory,
Therefore

" Ordered, That Mr. McLaughlin go on to the said ter-
ritory, with an unarmed force, and drive these trespassers
off :—But that, before thus proceeding, he repair to the
Commander of the American forces, show him his directions,
and request him to order his troops not to interfere with
those thus sent, and under his (McLaughlin's)command, for
the purpose of expelling the intruders." ,
Mr. McLaughlin had obeyed his instructions, and in an
interview with Gen. Hodson, of Houlton, had presented his
papers, and made his request. General Hodson replied to
him, that he was in command of the force, by the direction
of the Government of Maine, for a specific object, and that
he had no authority to give such orders to his men, as the
council through Mr. M. had requested. He should, there-
fore, permit no one, armed or unamed, to interfere with the
territory in dispute. But that he would communicate the
papers to the Commander in Chief, and await his further
directions in the matter. On the facts being communicated
to the Governor, his reply to Gen. Hodson, was in brief, that
he was entirely satisfied with his reply to Mr. McLaughlin.
In addition to this, we learn that the trespassers arrested
on Fish river, by Col. Jarvis, have been released. It is also
reported that a British man-of-war has arrived opposite East-
port, with 300 regulars, and that three other vessels with
troops, were hourly expected to join her. The state of Maine
has 3000 fine able-bodied men in the field, and 5000 more
ready to muster at an hour's notice. The whole number of
English regular troops in North America, is estimated at
18,000, 15,000 of which are in the Canadas, and the other
three thousand in Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick. In
addition to this force, the British have their local militia, but

it is said it would be 'difficult to raise three thousand in New
Brunswick. Sir John Harvey says he can bring 8000 men
into the field, but to do this a part of the regulars must be
withdrawn from Canada, and doubtless orders have already
been given to this end. In Maine, there are forty odd thou-
sand men enrolled, a much larger force than can be raised in
all the British North American Provinces.

Such is the present state of this peculiar affair upon the
spot. Sir John Harvey, it is• thought, will not march a man
across the line, and will do almost any thing to avoid a fight.
On the other hand, the men of Maine are anxious to try their
metal with the British. They say of Mr. Van Buren—
" There is a great want of decision in the President's
course. He is a little so, and a little so so, and on the whole
he thinks probably we had better keep cool, let British tres-
passers carry off all the best timber, and submit to further
indignities when they are offered. We hope Gov. Fairfield
will not withdraw the troops, but occupy and protect the
territory up to the line run by Gov. Kent. Maine will stand
by him in this, and we believe the nation will stand by him,
Fhatever the President and Mr. Fox may agree to."
Under this state of things, and with these feelings, it will,

we think, be difficult for the British toavoid a battle without.
dishonour to theiaselves, by backing out of all they have ad-
vanced, and confessing themselves to have been both insolent
and ignorant.

LATER INTELLIGENCE FROM MAINE.
We annex the following dispatch, being the latest from
Maine received this morning :
From the tenor of all the accounts from the east, we do not
see how the President can avoid calling out. the Fifty Thou-
sand volunteers authorised by law. We learn privately that
General Scott will muster all the militia of Maine into the
service in order to prevent a collision, till' we hear from Eng-
land. Even then, it is doubtful if he will be able to succeed.
We dread the next three months. Every thing will depend
on the provincial authorities.

[PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.]
Portland, March 5, 1839

" The combat deepens, on ye brave."

To-day has been one of intense excitement to our city. The
people of Maine are aroused and will no longer brook delay
or submit to have their rights trampled upon. The greatest
enthusiasm pervades all classes, and if blood should be drawn
or the clash of arms resound from the frontier, no power on
earth would stay the tide of strong hands and brave hearts
that would rush to the rescue. Maine alone can send into
the field fifty thousand men, and will do it, unless this ques-
tion is brought to an immediate settlement. She will not go
back, and unless Sir John Harvey retracts and retires from
the territory, war is inevitable and immediate. Maine feels
she is right and will maintain her position, for she is now in
earnest and will not be satisfied but with her whole territory,
bounded by treaty of 1783.
The troops of this division rendezvoused here yesterday.
They are drafts from the light companies of this division,and
appear to be capable of enduring any fatigue. Most of the
men are stout and robust, and inured to the cold storms of
the north, and are full of enthusiasm and ready for the fight.
—The detachment from the Portland Rifles appeared to the
greatest advantage, being admirably equipped for the expedi-
tion. The detachment took up their line of march this after-
noon for Augusta, under the command of Capt. J. D. Kins-
man. Captain Barker takes command at Augusta, and they
will start immediately for the disputed territory. They left '
amidst the shouts and farewells of the assembled thousands.
At 4 o'clock, Maj. Gen. Scott arrived here and stopped at
the Cumberland House. He was greeted with the enthusi-
astic cheers of a large multitude on his arrival ; he appeared
on the balcony and was introduced to the crowd by our wor-
thy mayor. He thanked the citizens of Portland for this
mark of their respect, and reminded them, that he, too, was
'a citizen of this favoured land. All felt that in him we could
safely repose the adjustment or direction of our affairs. He
retired amidst the shouts of the populace, whose voice of
welcome resounded again and again. All were satisfied that
with such a man to command our troops, victory would ever
follow in his footsteps.

THE CANADAS.
All is quiet here. No more hanging—all the prisoners under
sentence of death are to be transported. In Low& Canada, troops
are moving off to New Brunswick. In Upper Canada, Col. Prince
has shot two men in two duels, and Governor Arthur has opened
the provincial parliament in a speech of four columns in le9gth.
He congratulates the legislature upon the present tranquillity of
the province, and security of the frontier, but declares his belief
that the dangers are far from being entirely at an end. He main-
tains that the motives which caused those dangers are still existing
with unabated force ; and that henceforth the province must chieliy
rely upon its own ability to repel and punish hostile aggression.
He therefore recommends early attention to such amendments of
the militia laws as shall place that force on the best possible foot-
ing. The agitating question of the clergy reserves is earnestly
commended t 5 an early action of the iegislature.

(From the New York Mercantile Advertiser of March 9)
LATER FROM MEXICO.
(From the New Orleans Louisianian.)
By the arrival of the United States sloop of war Vandalia, we
have received the following intelligence :
Colonel Hyarry was within two days march of Metamoras, at the
head of 2,000 men; and with 700 more who were waiting to join
him, he was expected to make an attack on that town.
It appears from information at the Merchants' Exchange, that a
letter was received by Admiral Douglas, from Mr. Pakenham, the
English minister at Mexico, stating that there was a favourable pros-
pect of an arrangement of the existing difficulties between France
and Mexico, and that he expected to be in Vera Cruz on the 24th,
for the purpose of holding a conference with Admiral Baudin on
that subject. Nothing was known of the terms of the adjustment.
The blockade was strictly enforced by the French squadron.
The Vandalia had on board 120,000 dollars in specie.
(From the Commercial Bulletin.)
A commercial house in this city had the kindness to favour us
with the perusal of several very interesting letters from Mexico.
We give the following extract :

" VERA Cauz, February 7th.
" The same state of affairs continues ; nothing is known posi-
tively, but for the last four days an opinion is gaining ground, that
matters will soon be arranged, at least so as to allow the discharge
of the cargoes now in port. Santa Anna, by a process, it is said,
not unprecedented in his political career, has suddenly declared for
peace, and says the government can accept the plan proposed by
Mr. Pakenham. They await his approval. He has started for
Mexico, and says that within three days after his arrival there a
decision will be come to. About thirty merchant vessels are lying
in the harbour and at Sacrificios. Vera Cruz is still deserted,
although a number of foreigners have returned —I do not suppose
there are 500 souls inside the walls."

The Vandalia sailed from Matainoras on the 21st instant. The city
was garrisoned by the government troops under Gen. Canalizo, and
was strongly fortified. An army of 700 Federalists were encamped
naar, awaiting the arrival of Ren. Urrea with a large reinforcement
of Federal troops. His arrival would be the signal for the com-
mencement of hostilities. Regular siege would be laid to Mata-
moras, and vigorously prosecuted till the garrison surrendered or
the assailants were repulsed. From the interior, no news had been
received, communication having been interrupted by the turbulent
state Of the 'country.

Friday, March 8-6 p.m.
This has been bill day for the steam ship Liverpool, which departs
to-morrow for Liverpool. The market opened at 8i per cent. at
at which rate there was a great deal done ; but the rate speedily
rose to g per cent. at which large sales of the first class of bills
were made. Prime, Ward and King asked gi per cent. which was
equivalent to refusing to sell. The United States Bank offered to
take orders at 9 pei cent. For bills drawn to " a point "gt per cent.
was obtained. The market finally closed ai the latter rate.

We are desirous of directing the attention of our
conservative friends to the great importance of the re-
gistration, and we trust that those gentlemen who have
undertaken this important matter will direct their best
energies to the work. When we look at the immea-
surable evils that the present government have inflicted
upon the nation, both in reference to our foreign rela-
tions and our domestic circumstances, we really thinii
the time has arrived when a vigorous effort should be
made to shake off the whole gang, and to supply their
places with men competent to guide the state vessel
amidst the whirlwinds of democracy ; for in the com-
mencement of that fatal tempest the state of Great
Britain has assuredly entered. A knowledge of the
internal divisions and dissensions that now agitate the
land—intelligence formally, faithfully, and immediately
conveyed, by accredited but secret agents, to the go-
vernments of France, Russia, and the United States,
of the actual circumstances in which England is now
placed, have enabled these powers to plot with unerring
certainty against this country, and gather strength to
humble her to the dust. Add to this agency the fact
of an army of jesuits scattered over the land, infusing
their poisonous principles on every side, detailing with
precision, fidelity, and ability the course and the pro-
babilities which events are taking in England, each to

the chief of his order in Rome; and, in reference to
our foreign relations, it is not difficult to perceive that
the wily policy of Russia, the gay impudence of France,
the aggrandising spirit of America, and the bigotted
tyranny of Rome, are one and all engaged in weaving
a net for England which our paltry and temporising
ministry are quite unable to destroy. Russia tyrannises
over Poland, marches her nobles and her chieftains to
the Siberian mines, removes her frontier within a few
days' march of Constantinople, virtually excludes Bri-
tish shipping from the Black Sea, and from those splen-
did countries rich in almost every article of commerce—
countries that afford a fair field for the exportation of
our manufactures—she menaces our East Indian pos-
sessions—she foments discord in our colonies, and si-
lently prepares a navy ready to co-operate with the first
power that may be bold enough to fire into a British
ship.

France colonises Africa, takes military possession of
Algiers, with a harbour for her navy opposite Toulon,
placing, as it were, in case of war, every British vessel
between two fires ; she blockades the Mexican coast,
and insults the British flag, and our government dare
not resent the flagrant injury. America—sorry are we
to write it of the daughter of England—invades a
neutral territory, displays an aggressive spirit, and
winks at the treasonable practices of traitors to the
crown of England : and what is our government do-
ing ? Absolutely nothing. The Premier dines six
days a week with the Queen; Lord Palmerston is writ-
ing articles on non-intervention for his own newspa-
per, or protocols on the Belgian subject, or curling his
most exquisite whiskers; Lord John Russell spends
one half of his time attending to Irish agitators or
hedge priests—the other half in the House of Com-
mons, bringing in bills he never means to carry, alter-
nately scouting his untractable allies, the radicals, and
anon crawling in the dirt before them. Important and
vital questions are subjects of difference in the cabinet,
who only seem to agree in one matter—namely, that
they will keep their places ; and as to our local af-
fairs—. But these must form the subject of future
With three parliaments sitting in London,
one incompetent, one bent upon the destruction of our
agriculture, and the last bent upon the destruction of
the oilier two at the point of the pike, we think the
prospect anything but pleasant for England.
Time was when mighty spirits wielded the destinies
of England—when a Chatham, without boasting, could
fearlessly say, in the face of his country, that he should
like to see the nation that would fire a hostile shot
without consulting the government of England. Time
was when Great Britain was the vindicator of her own
honour, the protectress of the weak, the admiration of
the strong ; ,but she is now snubbed and kicked by
every yelping cur, and the craven spirits that direct her
councils, either from incapacity or cowardice, permit
the insult. We ask, how long are these things to last ?
Unless the honour of the country is vindicated, unless
armaments are prepared, and a tone be assumed such
as wont to be when Pitt and Canning held the reins,
we are assured that insult will soon be added to in-
jury, and England may have to fight, not to protect her
colonial possessions, but for her own existence. One
thing is clear, that until Minto be ejected from the Ad-
miralty, Palmerston from the Home-office, .O'Nor-
manby from the Colonial Department, and Morpeth
from Ireland,we shall see matters worse instead of bet-

remark.

ter. The country must have the benefit of the services
of men of a different stamp, OR IT IS GONE. How
is this to be effected ? There is only one legitimate mode
of doing it. Conservative members must be returned
to Parliament by conservative voters ; they must be on
the registry or their voice is useless. These are no
times for apathy and indecision. The chartists display
no such foolish conduct ; the papists and the political
dissenters act in a body and act with vigour, but the
conservatives seem dispirited and outfaced. Let this
no longer be the case. Carlow was won by two
votes—Wigan was won by two votes (we hope,
however, to be able soon to announce that these
were bad)—Salford was carried by one vote :—five
votes would therefore have altered the complexion of
three members, counting six on a division ; and let our
readers remember, that eight or ten votes seated the
speaker, unseated Sir Robert Peel, and placed the in-
capables in power, under whose administration Eng-
land is insulted abroad and misgoverned at home.
We therefore say, to every man who loves his coun-
try—REGISTER

Political speculation usually puts out its early sprouts
in spring, and rumours become inordinately rife at
Easter. We have paid but little attention to the re-
ports which from time to time have reached our ears,
and have forbore to impose upon our readers the vio-
lent improbabilities of whig resignations and retire-
ments. But we really had a sort of sneaking kindness
for old Glenelg. We felt that, according to the an-
cient proverb, there should be honour even among
whigs. And though we could not object to his dis-
missal, we scorned the baseness and turpitude of this
veritably whiggish procedure. We felt indeed that
" Perhaps it was right to dissemble their love,
But why did they kick him down stairs?"

Bad as he was, he was the best amongst them—im-
measureably superior to the wretched mortal whom the
whimsical destiny of whiggism has put into his place.
But the very important proceedings of Thursday and
Friday last, in the two houses of parliament, render it
necessary for us to notice some reports, which we have
hitherto regarded as too vague and indefinite for seri-
ous attention, and to which we cannot now persuade
ourselves to attach any real credit. It has been said,
for several weeks back, that Lord Melbourne was anxi-
ous to be relieved from his responsibilities in London,
that he may have uninterrupted leisure for his fasci-
nating pursuits at Windsor. This is natural enough ;
for

" There is a difference between
A beggar and a queen ;"
and it is no way remarkable if the transition from
Windsor, pastoral Windsor, to the society and sway
of the Milesian savage in whom "her Majesty's Go-
vernment repose no confidence," be exceedingly dis-
tasteful to the aristocratic viscount.
That ministers deliberated during the greater part
of Friday whether they should resign upon Lord Ro-
den's motion, is, we will venture to state, utterly in-
credible. Lord Melbourne or Lord John Russell may
have his own reasons for wishing to retire,—but, bold
and .brazen as we admit the whigs to be, we should
like to see the man, even amongst them, who dared to
look his colleagues in the face while he pronounced
that odious word " Resign." Resign ! Never were
men more tenacious of their purpose : never was con-
stancy more inflexible thin theirs to .its•only principle !
What signify disorders at home, rebellion in our colo-
nies, wars abroad ? Like real heroes,
" Si fractus illabatur orbis
Impavidos ferient ruinoe."
They would fiddle, if Rome was burning.
To upset the. government of Lords Melbourne and
John Russell for this very cause, that public indignation
cannot longer endure the crimes of their nefarious policy
in Dublin,—and to raise to their vacant seats the chief
agents and instruments and authors of that nefarious
policy, would be a truly Irish reformation, and worthy
of these consistent whigs. But it may not be the less
likely on that account !
Whom do our readers imagine the demi-radical
quidnuncs design for leaders of the two houses of par-
liament, Chief Secretary of State, and Lord Prime
Minister of England ? Shade of Oxenstiern ! The
Marquis of Normanby and Viscount Morpeth ! ! Shade
of Oxenstiern ! with how.little wit may this world be
(mis) governed ! Of Lord Morpeth but little need or

can be said. His contributions of wretched verse to
annuals are, luckily for him, forgotten with the annuals
themselves. That he should ever have stooped to
wear• O'Connell's badge, and to bow the neck and
pledge the faith of a Howard to the perjured policy of
Dublin Castle, begun in crime and ending in confu-
sion, excited poignant compassion in those who re-
membered the character he bore at Oxford, and main-
tained in his earlier public life. But it was reserved

for H. B. to immortalize Viscount Morpeth. In the
broad physiognomy of Liston he has delineated not

the features only but the intellectual portraiture of his
hero, and bequeathed the comic actor and the annual
poet, the counterfeit presentments of two brothers, to
the gaze and admiration of posterity. But there are
qualities in Lord Morpeth which the pen may record
with pleasure. He is a poet, if only an annual poet.
He is a gentleman, for he has received the education
of a scholar; and, more than this, he is respected in
private life for unimpeachable propriety of conduct,
and men appreciate his amiable temper, though it is
not possible for partiality itself very highly to admire
his genius. But where shall Scorn find her burning
brand when she prepares to write the name of Nor-
manby ? Ridicule once did deal, and it dictideal richly,
with the paltry novelist and the author of " Yes and
No" acquired fame, for he became a standing jest. But
mere ridicule is not all that a longer life has enabled
Lord Normanby to earn. He wrote the name of Mul-
grave legibly enough in Jamaica; and so long as men
shall abhor falsehood and loathe partiality and fraud,
they will not laugh when they speak of Lord Mul-
-1
grave's government in Jamaica. But it is in Ireland
that the name of Normanby is recorded in dark and
bloody characters. Like Dick, the butcher, of Ash-
ford, to Jack Cade, the evil genius of Ireland whis-
pered to the representative of royalty, `• If we mean to
live and do well, let us open the jails and let loose the
prisoners ;" and what mattered the crime—what sig-
nified the possibility, the certainty, that some loyal
subject, some peaceful, unoffending, confiding Irish-
man, must pay with his life the forfeit for every mur-
derer whom this arch-miscreant, in the abuse of
Mercy's sacred name, let loose upon the world ? It was
not enough to endure the debasing tribute of O'Con-
nell's foul-mouthed praise; it was not enough to be
the slave of rebel priests and the idol, the puppet of
an insubordinate Romish rabble. All this there was,
but yet there wanted crime, direct, overt, self-condemn-
ing crime. The cup was filled, and the name of Nor-
manby shall stand alone for having fostered sedition
in the garb of Royalty, rewarded crime in the name of
Law, sanctioned outrage and promoted violence as the
protector of public liberty and the sworn guardian of
public peace. _

Yet this man, whose only virtues (to use an expres-
sion that will be too readily understood in Ireland) are
his public crimes, haS been removed to a seat in the
cabinet, and there is a section of men who design him
for the highest place. Will the people of England
suffer this ? The people of England ! in whose name
the self-styled popular party have appealed to Carlow,
and to Wigan, and to Devonshire. Why they have
not appealed to Penrhyn, or to Newark, or to Oxford,
or to Reading, Messrs. Rolfe, and Wilde, and Earle,

and Talfourd best may tell ; and there is many a whig
job which has perished in the bud from the cold blasts
that have blown on the aspirants, from counties or bo-
roughs that might not be vacated. Lord Normanby
has no seat to lose. Let Lord Morpeth remember that
he has not now a majority of three thousand in the
once radical fastnesses of Yorkshire. Let them face
the people ; let them not play fast and loose with empty
words and false pretences of popularity, but look the
people of England in the face, and ask them plainly,
" Speak out, and say whom you will have."
We do not believe the Whigs will be beaten on the
15th of April. They would not have set their exist-
ence on the cast, if they had not counted the chances
and ensured success. England will be against them—
Great Britain will be against them—the perjured Irish
will afford them a bare majority ; and they will still
say (as truly as before) that they have the confidence of
the British Commons. The time may not be yet. But
the game is almost up. We have seen one whig empty
after another,
" Like a kite made of foolscap fly up to the skies,
With a long tail of rubbish behind."
But the gale of popular favour has died away, and the

idle plaything, which has no poWer of its own to sup
port itself, must, ere long, lie at its length, and be trod•
den under foot of man and beast.

While the unprincipled whig ministers have been,
for the last four years, lavish in the multiplication of
official patronage, and reckless in their increase of use-
less and expensive commissionerships, most of which
have terminated abortively, the great interests of the
country have been neglected, as if unworthy of the
slightest notice. The whole policy of the whigs, during
their tenure of office, has been of an essentially selfish
character. In all their measures, and in all their pro-
ceedings, party motives seem to have been their guiding
principles. The good of the country—the develop-
ment of its internal resources—the protection of its
commerce—the support of its institutions—and the in-
crease of its general happiness, seem to have been with
them considerations of a secondary nature : while
self-aggrandisement and party ascendancy have been
prosecuted by these time-serving politicians with in-
tense and undeviating zeal and perseverance.
To recount the number of offices created since the
whigs came into office would occupy more space than
we can afford to give to the subject. It may suffice
to say that they have been, in this respect, the most
corrupt and unscrupulous ministry that have ever had
the destinies of this country under their controul. But
what have they done to benefit the ccuntry ? Look at
the state of the navy of England—the great bulwark of
our national strength—for an answer. After all the
specious and delusive statements which have been pub-
lished on this subject under, the auspices of the govern-
ment, can it he seriously maintained that our navy is
in as efficient a state as it ought to be, under the circum-
stances in which the country is placed ? Menaced by
Russia, insulted by France, and treated with unmingled
contumely by the rest of the great maritime powers, in
what condition do we find our navy ? Is is such as it
was of old, when it was said of Great Britain that
" Her march was o'er the mountain wave,
Her home was on the deep—"
when the name of an Englishman, especially if he held
a commission in the service of the British monarch,
was respected in every port of the world—and when
the thunder of our naval artillery carried terror into

the squadrons of our enemies—and when England had
the supremacy, as a commercial nation, over every
other kingdom in the world ? Is such the proud posi-
tibn of Great Britain under the sway of the whigs !
Alas ! far otherwise. England is no longer the em-
press of the ocean. The national flag has been in-
sulted repeatedly with perfect impunity. British sub-
jects have been treated with every indignity by foreign
governments, and their appeals for protection have re-
mained unnoticed. A niggardly policy has unmanned
our fleet, deprived our vessels of war of even ,their
complement of masts, and reduced our dockyards and
arsenals to a state approximating upon ruin. Our
commerce has been left without any adequate protec-
tion, and is, in consequence, liable to be interrupted by
every petty power that may take upon itself, on the
most frivolous and vexatious pretences, to proclaim its
blockades against those who are on terms of friendly
intercourse with us. We have not, on the admission
of Lord Minto himself, the means of resisting foreign
invasion. What has been the cause of all this ? Why
are we no longer protected from the aggressions of our
enemies, as in former times, by the " wooden walls of
old England ?" Is it because our ministers have
really effected any retrenchment in the public expen-
diture ? Let those who have to bear the burden of
taXation answer.

It may not generally be known to our merchants and
others that Mr. URQUHART, the distinguished diplo-
matist, whose knowledge of Eastern affairs is so ex-
tensive, and who has been the means of letting in so
much light upon the miserable, not to say dishonest,
conthict of our Foreign Secretary, Lord Palmerston, is
now sojourning at Speke Hall for the restoration of his
health. When we call, to mind the importance of his
communications to the Chambers of Commerce at
Glasgow, Newcastle, and Hull, his great knowledge of
international law, and his skill in detecting the policy
of Russia, we are a little surprised that our India and

Levant merchants have not availed themselves of the
opportunity of his visit to Liverpool to draw from him
those statements of facts on the all-absorbing subject
of Russian aggression which his great experience en-
ables him to give.
It is right that we should add that we are not autho-
rised to make this communicatidn, as Mr. URQUHART
has been for some time in a delicate state of health ;
but accidentally hearing of his proximity, we throw
out the hint to our commercial men, convinced that
every thing connected with Russian affairs has a most
important bearing on the present and future welfare of
the country.

SACRED MUSIC.

GRAND CHORAL PERFORMANCE,

Last night the first of two grand choral performances was
given at the Royal Amphitheatre, Great Charlotte-street.
At present we can only notice the general points of this con-
cert ; the details of it we shall keep till Friday, when the
article which we had prepared shall appear, with comments
upon the second grand performance which is announced for
the evening of Wednesday. The arrangements reflect
every credit upon the conductors of the various depart-
ments, and upon the devoted enterprise of Mr. Ashton,
to whom we heartily wish the success and appreciation
to both of which he is so well entitled The group of
performers consisted of upwards of eighty. To the
right of the conductor (Mr. Eyton) were Miss B. Hawes
and Mr. Bennett, and on his left the no less cele-
brated vocalists Miss Birch and Mr. Phillips. The overture
was well received by an indifferent house. The recitative,
" To Heaven's Almighty King," and the air, " 0 Liberty,"
were finely given by Bennett. This gentleman was in good
voice, and merited the applause with which his success was
greeted. Mr. Phillips sang " I feel the Deity within," and
Arm, arm ye brave," in a highly effective style : we have,
however, heard him in a happier swell ofivoice. In the cho-
rus, " irE come in bright array," the accompaniment
was good, but the performance otherwise was weak—
an imperfection attributable to a want of steadiness and con-
cert on the part of the vocalists. It is impossible for any
choruses to go off well, much less to tell upon an audience,
when the want of rehearsals is . glaringly manifested : Mr.
Ashton will do well to see to this against Wednesday next.
In the recitative, " 0 let eternal honours crown his name,"
that accomplished singer, Miss Birch, added to her pro-
fessional reputation in Lancashire ; her shake in the second
and fourth passages of the air, " From mighty kings he took
the spoil," were pleasingly effective. Her execution of Han-
del's subduing air to the words, " Holy holy Lord God, who
was and is, and is to come," told upon the feelings of every
listener. Of Miss Hawes we shall speak more at length on Fri-
day ; she was encored with Miss Birch, in the expressive duet,
whose characteristic is sweetly pastoral—" 0 lovely peace
with plenty crowned ;'' and, also, in Cherubini's Solo—" 0
Salutaris Hostia." General as this notice is, the finished
style in which Mr. Bennett gave effect to the poetry of sound
in Handel's air. to the fine words "Lord remember David,"
must not be overlooked: In the instrumental accompaniment
to "Arm, arm ye brave," the manner in which the Oboe was
played, gave unmistakeable proof of its being in the hands
of a master. The selection for Wednesday's performance
is from the Messiah of Handel, when doubtless the attend-
ance will be most numerous. That Liverpool is anything
but destitute of musical talent is sufficiently known to
all who are conversant with the taste and accomplishments
of the superior grades of its diversified society ; but that its
taste, compared with that of which so much is made in Man-
chester, needs energy and direction, is unfortunately unde-
niable. A very little concentration and public spirit would
remove this lukewarmness, and produce public effects which
would raise the character of the town to a higher point of
musical appreciation than that which any other in the king-
dom-could legitimately boast of.

The American Ox, " Brother Jonathan," largest in the
world, weighs 4,000 pounds, This wonderful beast noticed
in the papers as coming by the steamer Liverpool, from New
York, arrived last Tuesday, in the Packet ship, England,
Captain Waite, accompanied by his owner, Mr. Swanton,
who intends exhibiting him shortly at Mr. Hargreaves, the
Old Fall Well Tavern, where he now is.
EASTER BALL.—It will be seen, by refering to an adver-
tisement in another part of our paper, that the members of
the Minerva Lodge of Odd Fellows are about to have a ball
on Monday next. A great number of tickets are already
disposed of, and as the object in view is to do good to the
order in general, we heartily wish them success.
FlRE.—Last night about ten o'clock, a fire broke out in
the cotton warehouse of Mr. Taylor Fenney Lane, Thomas'
Street ; but through the prompt and active exertions of the
police, it was extinguished before any material damage was
done.

POPISH IMPUDENCE.—A few weeks ago, as the reverend
and respected vicar of Wrexham was about to commence
reading the burial service at a grave in the church-yard, a
popish priest, of the name of Collins, who had perched him-
self in a conspicuous situation, crossing himself, in a low and
vulgar way, addressed the vicar by name, and said "There is
no occasion for your reading the service over this corpse, as
he is a Roman Catholic." The vicar calmly answered, "I
am bound to read the service over every one brought here to
be interred." "It is very unfair, very unfair indeed," re-
joined the popish priest, "your hurch dont allow prayers
for the dead, and why pray here ?" " I cannot permit you
to speak here" added the vicar. Upon this the priest, like
another Naaman, turned and went away in a rage. Wrexham
is the rendezvous of low Irish Jesuits, who perform in the
mass house of that town their papistical antics.
We understand that Mr. Chatterton, tide-surveyor at
Douglas, is appointed to a similar office at Whitehaven, with
an increased salary, and that he will be succeeded by Mr.
Marshalsay, a tide-waiter from Liverpool.—Manx Liberal.

WESLEYAN METHODIST ASSOCIATION CHAPEL, PLEA-
SANT-STREET.—This new and elegant place of worship is now
approaching towards completimi. The building, which is of
bright coloured brick, finished with stone, presents a hand-
some frpntage to Pleasant-street, and may be considered an
architectural ornament of the town. The design is Grecian.
The lower windows, which are square-topped, are cased with
stone mouldings, and each surmounted by a boldly projecting
pediment of the same material. Those above are taller, and
of semicircular form at the top, also moulded in stone. The
whole is surmounted by a handsome enriched cornice and
blocking.

CORRESPONDENCE.

POPISH COLLEGE OF MAYNOOTH.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.
SlR,—Will you allow me to lay before your readers the
following extracts relative to the College of Maynooth?
" Heretics (Protestants) when strong, are to be committed
to God; when weak, to the executioner."—Cardinal Bellar-
mine, who is admitted by Dr. Murray to be a standard autho-
rity at Maynooth.

Inglis, a Whig traveller in Ireland.
" I entertain no doubt that the disorders which originate
in hatred of Protestantism, have been increased by the May-
nooth education of the Roman Catholic priesthood. It is the
Maynooth priest who is the agitating priest ; and if the fo-
reign educated priest be a more liberal-minded man, less a
zealot, and less a hater of Protestantism than is consistent
with the present spirit of Catholicism in Ireland, straightway
an assistant, red-hot from Maynooth, is appointed to the pa-
rish. In no country in Europe, no, not in Spain, is the spirit
of Popery so intensely anti-Protestant as in Ireland."

Hon. and Rev. Baptist W. Noel. Notes of a Tour in 1836.
" As I departed from the College, I could not but reflect
with melancholy interest on the prodigious moral power
lodged within the walls of that mean, rough-cast, and white-
washed range of buildings. What a vomiting of fiery zeal for
worthless ceremonies and fatal errors ! Thence how the priestly
deluge, issuing like an infant sea, or, rather like a fiery flood,
from its roaring crater, pours over the parishes of Ireland, to
repress all spiritual improvement by their anti-Protestant
enmities and their cumbrous rites !
" For these poor youths themselves, I felt a deeper pity.
There, before they know it, to be drilled and practised for
their hopeless warfare against the kingdom of Christ ; there
to imbibe endless prejudices fatal to themselves and others ;
there to be sworn upon the altars of superstition to an inter-
minable hatred of what they call heresy; to have prejudices
blackened into malice against those who love God ; to have
all their worldly interests thenceforth identified with priest-
craft; to settle down, perhaps, after fearful struggle between
interest and conscience, into Epicurean scepticism ; perhaps,
in some instances, to teach the people to adore what they
know to be a bit of bread; to curse them from the altar for
what they themselves belive to be right and a duty—the pe-
rusal of the Word of God ; and, lastly, to despise them for
trembling at the impotent malediction."

Mr. Crotty, a converted Priest, in a letter to Dr. Murray

Dec. 1835.
" You have charged me with having opposed, when a
student in Maynooth College, the authorities of that house—
Yes, I denounced in terms of honest indignation, the vicious,
narrow, and ruinous plan of education pursued in that house,
which is the hot-bed of bigotry, intolerance, and superstition.
I publicly and openly declare the College of Maynooth has
never yet produced a gentleman or a scholar, and that there
never was an establishment that stands more in need of a
speedy reformation than that house, where 400 Popish Priests
are fed and educated by the liberality of a Protestant go-
vernment, and who are let loose upon the world to disseminate
the unchristian and anti-social doctrines, and principles of
bigotry and intolerance, which they are taught in that house.
To these Priests; who are the busy and active agents of Mr.
O'Connell, may be imputed the pernicious system of agita-
tion, and the other numberless calamities that now distract
our unfortunate country."
Surely with such documents as these, no person calling
himself Protestant, should rest until he has himself signed
the petition to Parliament against the grant of £9OOO, to this
iniquitous College, and influenced his friends to do the same,
Yours, &c.,
A PROTESTANT.

THE BEGGARMAN'S UNCLE.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.

SIR,-At the dinner given by Colonel Bruen to his su.

porters at the late Carlow election, a Mr: Pat Finn, in the
course of a long and rambling speech, asked, " How can this
man, the advocate and eulogist of the tyrant Charles the
Tenth, who was justly driven from his throne, be deemed
the friend of liberty ? O'Connell, whose uncle was an officer
of rank in the French army, and a great friend of Charles
the Tenth."
Some sixty years since, an officer of the Irish brigade in
the service of France, passing along the streets of a town in
French Flanders, observed a number of persons collected
round a man who appeared sinking from the effects of cold
and hunger. The officer was prompt in his exertions for the
relief of the poor creature, who, after some time, was restored
to comparative strength and consciousness. When ques-
tioned as to what country he belonged, and the cause of his
• misfortunes, he replied, " that he was a native of Ireland,
' a poor scholar' from the county of Kerry ; that a charitable
Catholic gentleman had supplied him with means, and sent
him to one of those seminaries for the education of Irish
priests ; that he was wandering about houseless and starving
when rescued by his humane inquirer from misery and
death." The kind-hearted soldier was deeply touched by
this tale of suffering : he ministered to all the wants of his
wretched countryman, who soon recovered his wonted
strength and vigour.
" The poor scholar" possessed none of the virtues of the
Irish peasantry, but all the bad qualities by which they have
latterly been distinguished—ingratitude, duplicity, and low
cunning ; he practised upon the credulity of the unsuspecting
soldier, won his friendship, and obtained from him letters of
strong recommendation to some influential persons in Paris.
After the lapse of some years, the regiment of the Irish offi-
cer was stationed in the capital. One day, when on duty at
the 'palace, he recognised, amongst the attendants of the
King's brother the Count d'Artois, his old acquaintance
" the poor scholar." He addressed his former protege, re-
minded him of old times, and felicitated him on the happy
change in his fortunes. Courtiers and court minions have
very bad memories. " The scholar" was quite " oblivious,"
disclaimed the acquaintance of his benefactor, and professed
total ignorance of the circumstances to which allusion had
been made. The gallant gentleman, disgusted and indig-
nant, instantly separated himself from the ungrateful wretch;
whose character he soon ascertained was such as to render
him unworthy the notice of a man of honour. He learned
that this man, whom he had saved from starvation and death,
and introduced to the notice of his friends in Paris, had,
through their influence, obtained a commission in the army ;
and that, by cringing and flattery, he had found favour with
his colonel, the Count d'Artois, then a wild, dissolute young
man. The scholar was one of those persons who are always
to be found, the ready and willing ministers to the follies
and vices of the high and the influential.
When the revolution burst forth with all its horrors, the
brave Irish officer " amongst the faithless was faithful
found." Ile quitted France—then reeking with the blood
of the martyr King—joined the gallant army of the Prince
de ConcKy, and nobly fell, fighting in the cause of loyalty and
honour.

The fate of the " scholar" was a different and, in a worldly
sense, a more fortunate one. He stood aloof until all danger
had passed away, and the royal family settled in England,
when he hastened to rejoin his master the Count d'Artois,
in whose service he continued, and with whom he returned

to France when the Bourbon family were re;toteci to their
rights in 1814. This man, who in the hour of danger was
found wanting, avoided the fate which befel better men; yet,
by the exercise of his old qualities, low cunning and flattery,
contrived to retain the favour of his royal master, in whose
service he acquired wealth, and by whose influence he at-
tained rank in the army, without ever having fired a shot or
drawn a sword in the field of battle. In 1830, when King
Charles the Tenth was robbed of his crown by the infidel
gang and their worthy chief, who calls himself " King of the
French," the scholar, seeing he had nothing more to gain,
abandoned his master and benefactor, and remained in
France, where he died some time since. Thus terminated
the honourable career of " the officer of rank and great friend
of Charles the Tenth !"

Another part of Mr. Finn's speech requires a reply. He
calls O'Connell the " advocate and eulogist of Charles the
Tenth." This is the truth, but not the whole truth. While
the late King of France was the possessor of a throne,
O'Connell was his "eulogist and advocate;" but when for-
tune changed, and when the King was borne down by suffer-
ing and affliction, O'Connell, who is the natural enemy of
the noble and the good, from being the " advocate and eulo-
gist," became the unmanly traducer and vilifier of the unfor-
tunate and venerable monarch.

And now a few words with respect to Mr. Finn himself.
Mr. Finn is a relative or connection of the mendicant agita-
tor, and was for many years his ardent friend and admirer ;
but his turn came—he received his share of the brutal, ruf-
fianly abuse which the old savage deals out both to friends
and foes with such liberal impartiality. Thus outraged and
insulted, Mr. Finn quitted the ranks of agitation, joined the
party of Colonel Bruen, and is now, he declares, " a good
tory." I wish not to arraign the sincerity of Mr. Finn, but
I very much distrust his steadiness ; and were O'Connell to
hold out the olive-branch to him, I should not feel surprised
again to see him in the livery of agitation, enacting the pa-
triot and repealer ; for in this Carlow speech, while he ap-
pears to denounce and condemn O'Connell, he at the same
time endeavours to exalt the pretensions of his beggarly,
upstart family.—l am, &c., DELTA.

ARRIVAL OF THE "LIVERPOOL" STEAM SHIP.

The " Liverpool" arrived at this port yesterday evening,
about half-past seven o'clock, after a passage of little more
than sixteen days, she having sailed from the quay at New
York, in the afternoon of the 9th instant, at about half-past
two o'clock.

The arrival of the " Liverpool" was looked for with much
anxiety for some days past ; principally on account of the
news which it was expected she would bring relative to the
somewhat formidable dispute between the border inhabitants
of New Brunswick and the State of Maine, (the particulars
of which will be found in another column), in no small
degree, from a hope that she would make as speedy a
voyage homewards as has yet been accomplished by the
Great Western. In this last, and after all, minor particular,
it will be found that the Liverpool has had adverse winds
and unusually heavy seas to contend with in the line of her
tract, and that considering all things she has made a fine
run.

•
The quays were crowded throughout the early part of yes-
terday, by parties expecting her arrival, and the concourse
continued to increase towards evening, when the tide made
up, the vessel having having been telegraphed as being off
Holyhead, at half-past one o'clock. It was agained under-
stood that at about five o'clock she was off Ormshead, and
the distance she had to run from that point left no doubt in
the minds of nautical persons that she would not come up
the river till considerably after sunset. Numerous however,
were the expectants on the quays, even until the moon had
proclaimed her ascendancy ; and though some departed,
chilled by the cold, many remained, and witnessed her
arrival with great satisfaction. The Shamrock and the
William Fawcett steamers were in attendance, the latter
conveying Mr. Pollock, agent to the Transatlantic; Steam
Company, and his friends. Both vessels steamed out into
the river about seven o'clock, in expectation of the appear-
ance of the " Liverpool" rounding the rock ' • and they were
not long in suspense. The gallant vessel sent up rockets
just before and after rounding the rock point, and also fired
several guns. The rockets were responded to by others from
the Waterloo Dock, pier-head. On passing abreast of Sea-
combe the Liverpool came up to and headed the Shamrock,
and the cheers between the passengers and crews of the two
vessels were distinctly heard on George's pier. A similar
salute greeted the arrival of our great steamer as she passed
the William Fawcett, in ruonding to her anchorage off
George's quay. Her decks were instantly crowded by visitors
from the two steamers, and a swarm of small•boats, and the
skirmishing for newspapers and packets in the fore cabin was
excessive, some of the foragers for newspapers, in particular,
being intent upon catching all they could, right or wrong.
We had an opportunity of conversing with some of the pas-
sengers. Every one on board speaks in high terms of thek
fineness of the vessel, as an easy and fast sea boat, and 0f,4
Captain. Fayrer, as an able and anxious navigator, and a most
agreeable associate. There were on board thirty-six pas-
sengers, namely :—Messrs. J. F. Webb, W. Morris, J. D.
Prince, Osborne, J. H. Joyce, G., H. Booth, Lieut. Hyde?-
Parker, J. T. Harrison, B. F. Voochers, J. D. Thatcher,

Henshall, Capt. the Hon. A. Spencer, Lieut. R. G.Levenge,:,

Levington, E. Harure, Mrs. G. N. Adams, Mrs. M'Donald,
Mrs. Gunter, Messrs. N. Benjamin, A. H. Thorbuck, John -
Strickland, W. Crawford, M. Pinner, John Dear, S. Irving,
John Ross, Captain Barlow, and Mr. T. Brook and child.

The following is another analysis, in a different point of
view, of the division which took place on Monday last, on
the following resolution :—"That this house will immediately
resolve itself into a committee of the whole house, to take
into consideration the act regulating the importation of foreign
corn."

RIPON DIOCESAN CHURCH BUILDING SOCIETY.—It
would be impossible for us this week to give a full report of
the proceedings of the important meeting which took place
at Ripon on Thursday the 21st instant, we shall only there-
fore at present observe that it was attended by the Right
Hon. the Earl of Harewood, the Bishop of Ripon, and a
numerous body of the clergy and gentry, members of the
Central Committee. Various grants, amounting to a sum
of upwards of £5OOO were voted for the erection, enlarge-
ment, or endowment of churches, and we feel certain that
this liberality will give an increased impetus to church build-
ing all over the Diocese, and gladden the hearts of many who
are anxiously looking forward to the decisions of the com-
mittee.—Leeds Intelligences.
RESTORATION bF PROVIDENCE GROVE, SHROPSHIRE.—
We are glad to perceive, by the Shrewsbury News, that the
subscription set on foot by the friends of Mr. Hulbert, to
enable him to rebuild his beautiful antique cottage and restore
his valuable library of upwards of 2000 vols., destroyed by
fire during the great hurricane in January last, is liberally
advancing. His unweared exertions, as an author and pub-
lisher, render him worthy of this mark of respect. He has
done much by his labours in the cause of Sunday schools,
and edifying and instructing mankind by his numerous works.
Lord Hill, the Earl of Liverpool, Sir Rowland Hill, &c. are
amongst the contributors.
Sir W. Molesworth, having no chance at Leeds, at the next
election, will be brought forward at Manchester, we are told,
by the extreme radical party, who are strong enough to
coerce the whigs. It is rumoured that Mr. Baines will retire
from Parliament at the next general election, and mak an
effort to seat his eldest son in his stead ; and that Mr. H. C.
Marshall will be nominated with him on the yellow interest.
This game has long been in preparation ; we shall be glad to
see it played. The conservatives are ready for action, and will
of course fight the battle with two staunch blue candidates.—
Leeds bit elliy encer

THE LATE MURDEROUS OUTRAGE ON A WlFi.—Since
our last, Sarah Whitaker, the unfortunate woman who was
assailed by her husband with an axe, has gone on well, and
has now a fair chance of recovery. Her wretched husband,
who had been remanded until yesterday, was then brought
up at the New Bailey. He was dressed in an old black coat
and fustian trousers, without neckcloth, and had a dirty ap-
pearance. He was pale, but appeared to be little if at all
affected. Mr. Smith, the house surgeon at the Infirmary,
stated, that he considered the prisoner's wife to be still in
considerable danger. The prisoner was then remanded till
Wednesday next. He did not speak a single word.—Man-
chester Guardian.

At a sale at Mr. Sotheby's Rooms, on Monday week, of
the miscellaneous library of the late Edmund Lodge, Esq.,
Clarenceaux King-at-Arms, the following curious and unique
volume was purchased by Mr. Bent, of the Aldine Cham-
bers, Paternoster-row, for the sum of £l3 lOs : " The
Mirour of Maietie, or the Badges of Honour conceitedly
emblazoned, with emblems annexed, poetically unfolded, by
H. G., remarkably fine copy, in half morocco.—London,
printed by W. 1., 1618.—The only other impression of it
which has occurred for sale, or even known, was in the
White Knight collection, where it sold for £lB. It was
resold at Perry's sale for £l7 17s; and again in Heber's
collection for £7 10s. The title of that copy was reprinted,
and the imprint was different from the present,' independent
of the date being altered to 1619."

NOVEL EXPORT.-The Forth, which sailed last week
from Leith, for Calcutta, had on hoard perhaps the most
miscellaneous. if not heterogeneous, cargo that ever .was
cleared at the custom-house : we may notice 110 hhds.
Edinburgh ale, one puncheon whiskey, a large quantity of
bottled wine, packages of canvass, cutlery, and confectionery,
eight piano-fortes, and last, not least, seven cases preserved
meat, and two cases Scotch haggises ! These latter were from
the large cooking establishment of Messrs. John Gillon and
Co., and are guaranteed to keep in pristine purity during the
length and breadth of the voyage. They will, no doubt,
form the first specimen of the " chieftain of the pudding
race," ever exhibited south of the equator.—Scotsman.
Muste.—Who would think of living on honey and cham-
pagne ? She who spends four or five hours daily in the
study and practice of music, acts with equal impropriety.
The extra time thus spent is injuriously abstracted from
other improvements of mind and body. The time spent at
the piano leaves not sufficient space for the acquirement of
that useful knowledge which strengthens the mind against
the vicissitudes of fortune and the moral crosses to which
female life is doomed, nor for healful exercise of the body,
by which the material fabric may be fortified against the
thousand causes of disease continually assailing it. I would,
therefore, recommend that one-half of the time spent in
music should be alloted to bodily exercise, and to the acqui-
sition of useful and ornamental knowledge. —Economy of
Health, by Dr. James Johnson.

VAN AMBURGH'S NEW LION.—A new lion has been
added to the menagerie of Drury-lane theatre. The noble
animal was brought last week from the vessel in which he
had been brought over, and as Mr. Van Amburgh had never
seen the animal, it was imagined that being a stranger he
would not venture into the cage. At his first introduction
the lion was sulky, withdrew to a corner of his apartment,
and glanced ferociously upon the spectators. Van Amburgh,
however, entered the cage, and although it was the first time
he had been with him, he lay down by the side of the lion,
who licked his face and hands, and he took the animal by
the jaws and made him roar and bark in the same fashion
with those which are nightly exhibited, to the astonishment
and almost consternation of every one present. There can
now be no doubt but that this extraordinary person has
some power over animals which is as inexplicable as it is
astonishing.

NATIONAL CONVENTION.—RUN ON THE RENT.—On
Wednesday :several communications were read from the
itinerant missionaries, threatening that they would return in-
stanter unless their demands for a further supply of cash was
complied with. Mr. Feargus O'Connor said, that every
meeting which he had attended cost him £2O, and that he
would send in his bill for those meetings if any further sums
were forwarded to the missionaries, as this would swamp the
national rent.—lt is pretty clear that the delusion is all but
over.—Globe.
CONVERSION OF A POLICE OFFICE INTO A POLITICAL
CHAPEL.—It is announced by placard that on Sunday next
Two Sermon.? will be preached in the New Court House,
Huddersfield, to raise the needful for "that Man of God, the
Rev. J. Stephens !" (we quote the placard) the one in the
forenoon by a Mr.ilWm. Cliff, of Huddersfield, and the other
in the afternoon by a Mr. John Clarke, of Newtown, near
Huddersfield. The ORCHESTRA ! (q.d. the magisterial bench
or the prisoners' dock) is to be reserved for Ladies. Indeed !
What next ?.—Leeds Intelligencer.
We understand that at the Quarter Sessions held on Thurs-
day, at Mold, for the county of Flint, the Hon. L. Kenyon
in the chair, three men, Warburton, Owens, and Davies,
notorious thieves from Liverpool, committed to take their
trial for the robbery of Hawarden church, were found guilty,
and one of them, Warburton, (having been convicted twice
previously,) was sentenced to be transportedfor the remainder
of his life, and the other two were sentenced to be transported
for 15 years each. We are glad to hear that the churchwar-
dens have handsomely rewarded the two officers through
whose vigilance the thieves were so effectually brought to
justice. The names of the officers are Mr. James Holt,
formerly of the Liverpool police, and Mr. John Newton, the
efficient constable of Rock Ferry and the district of Bebington.
The tournament, which we had thought was but a rumour
"of the day, and quite forgotten amidst the various excitements
of the last memorable season, is not only still talked about,
but is actually fixed to take place at Eglington Castle, in the
early part of September. The knights, about 30 in number,
will each be attended by two squires, besides pages, and nu-
merous retainers. The following are some of the noblemen
and gentlemen already knighted :—The duke Beaufort, Mar-
quis of Waterford, Earl of Dunmore, Earl of Craven, Earl
of Hillsborough, Viscount Castlereagh, Lord Suffield, Lord
Gardner, Lord Forester, Lord Alford, Lord Alfred Paget,
Hon. ajor Henniker, Hon. Captain Maynard, Hon. C.
Forester, Sir F. Johnstone, Captains Fairlie, Lamb, Houston,
&c. Lord Jocelyn will prove a recreant knight, having joined
the 15th Hussars, intending shortly to proceed to India.
The contents of the despatches received from India by
government begin slowly to transpire. We understand that
the intelligence is quite as bad as we had anticipated, or even
worse. Sir John Keene's army was retreating, in conse-
quence, it is said, of the decidedly hostile disposition of the
Sindes, and of the report of Captain Barnes, who had been
sent forward with a detachment to reconnoitre, and who, on
his return to the main body of the army, stated that the
passes were all strongly foitified, and would, he believed, be
obstinately defended. The report, which we have received
from very good authority, adds that the troops were suffering
from want of provisions and other necessaries, and that the
loss of men amounted already, before an enemy has been
encountered, to 3000. The directors of the East India Com-
pany are urgent in their demand that' the European army in
India shall be reinforced as speedily and extensively as pos-
sible.—Morning Post.
LONDON AND BRIGHTON RAILWAY.—Great exertions
have been making lately in order to the completion of about
three-and-a-half miles of road on the Shoreham branch of
this line, which it was intended should have been opened
yesterday by some of the directors of the company. The
heavy rains which fell towards the close of last week, how-
ever, partially retarded the progress of the work 4, and the
opening was in consequence postponed till this morning (the
19th) at ten o'clock. The contractors will recommence active
operations at the Hove cutting : the tunnel there will be
completed in the early part of July. The works upon the
main line are proceeding rapidly, and there are. nearly 4000
men and about 400 horses employed thereon. The works at
Balcombe tunnel never were in so satisfactory a state as at
the present moment ; in short nothing can exceed the vigour
with which the works on the whole line are being, prosecuted.
We have heard it rumoured that a treaty is on foot between
the Brighton and Dover Companies which is likely to lead to
an amicable adjustment of the differences between those com-
panies as to the right of the Dover Company to purchase a
portion of the Brighton Railway between Merstham and
Croydon.—Brighton Patriot.
WooLwien.—On Wednesday morning, in consequence of
orders received late in the night from the master-general of
the ordnance, (Lieut-Gen. Sir Hussey Vivian, Bart., G.C.8.)
the rocket troop of the horse brigade of royal artillery, under
the command of Captain Strangeways (an old Waterloo
officer) and the following officers :—Second Captain Bloom-
field, Lieutenants Teesdale, Gambier, and Grant, marched
from the Royal Artillery Barracks, Woolwich, at six o'clock
in the morning for Weedon. Orders were also received for
another troop of horse artillery to pack their baggage for
starting, if necessary, at the dawn of day ; and they, subse-
quently, marched, on fui;ther orders, with the rocket troop,
taking with them four six-pounder light field-pieces, with
ammunition-carriages and mounted troopers. The other
troops of horse artillery, and a mounted brigade of the bat-
talion of foot artillery, or field batteries, are also ordered to
hold themselves in readiness for immediate service. It, how-
ever, so happens that there are only two brigades of field-
batteries (four guns each) available at Woolwich at this mo-
ment ; the other company, commanded by Captain and Bre-
vet-Major Willis, having left on Saturday for Devonport.
The rocket troop of the corps, which has been the first or-
dered on this unpleasant service, has not left quarters for
many years.—Morning Herald.
MURDER NEAR NEWARK'—Saturday morning the inha-
bitants of Newark, and the villages north of that town, were
thrown into a state of great excitement by the discovery that
an aged woman, named Hancock, who occupied a small
shop at Caunton, had been brutally murdered.- The dis-
covery was made by one of the villagers, who went to the
house about seven, and finding the door unlocked, and no
one in the shop, proceeded up stairs, where i±e found the
unfortunate woman stretched on the bed. The body presented
a shocking appearance, and the wall was sprinkled with blood.
Upon a search it was found that the house had also been
robbed ; and information being conveyed to a neighbouring
magistrate, steps were immediately taken towards bringing
the offenders to justice. After a long inquiry a labourer
named Driver, who was working at I'luskam Woodhouse,'
was apprehended, and on his person was found two watches,
money, &c. ; he at once confessed his guilt, and stated that
he committed the barbarous act between three and four
o'clock in the morning. It appears that he filled her mouth
with rags, to prevent her cries awaking the neighbours,
struck her ou the head, and then strangled her. The mother
of Driver was also apprehended on suspicion of being impli-
cated in the affair, and both were conveyed to Newark gaol
to await the inquest. Driver declares that he was accompa-
nied by another person, but positively denies that his mother
was in any way connected with it. Driver is about 24, and
of exceedingly repulsive aspect, but he is generally considered
deficient in intellect.—Lincoln Gazette.
NORTH DEVON ELECTlON.—The7event has verified our

prediction, as to " the almost certain acquisition of the re-
presentative of the north of Devon to the ranks of Protes-
tant Constitutionalists," This we hazarded on the 6th of
March, on the strength of those general, considerations,
which convince us that a feeling of sympathy with the op-
pressed Irish, far more religious than political in its charac-
ter, and embracing chiefly the unprotected Protestants, is
gradually supplanting, in the public mind of England, the
abused sentiments of " justice to Ireland." It has shown
itself even in quarters where it was least expected to exist, at
least in such freshness and vigour. We allude, in this re-
mark, chiefly to Lord Brougham's impassioned burst of
eloquence on the state of crime in .Ireland, the vial of whose
burning indignation spent itself on Mr. O'Connell's head.
We little supposed, however, when we relied on the electors
of North Devon, as men determined to show government
what is their sense of $o injudicious an appointment as Lord
Fortescue's, that they would do so by so overwhelming a
majority. Such a victory in honour of Protestant Conser-
vatism, following so closely on the heels of that of Carlow,
ought effectually to reanimate the zeal of the defenders of
the monarchy. We are quite awake to the call which has
been publicly made upon us, to state our opinion on a letter
which appeared in the Western Times, with the signature cf
a Wesleyan minister, intended to operate against the Conser-
vative and Protestant candidate in the recent election for
North Devon. We shall not flinch from the duty of dealing
with the subject as it may appear to us to deserve, when we
have had time to make proper inquiries respecting it. At
present, it seems to be a matter of doubt, by which of the
two individuals, who bear the name attached to it, the letter
in question was written. Whichsoever of those individuals
may turn out to be the author, we can have no hesitation, as
independent journalists, conscientiously attached to the prin-
ciples which we have already avowed, in saying, that the
grounds alleged by the writer of the letter for his public in-
terference with respect to the North Devon election are, in
our judgment, altogether insufficierit for his justification,
and do no credit either to his logic, or to his sense of what
was due to those Protestant interests and institutions, which
true and consistent Wesleyans have also felt it their duty,
through evil report and good report, to maintain and promote.
—Watchman.

THE THREE ToM Smmis.—Everybody has heard the
story of the wag who called aloud in the pit of Drury-lane
Theatre, " Mr. Smith, your house is on tire ;" whereupon a
hundred and twenty-five Mr. Smith's arose, and, when he
continued " it is Mr. John Smith's house," then ten sat
down ; leaving a preponderance of a hundred and fifteen Johns
in a net amount of one hundred and twenty-five Smiths. It
is a singular fact connected with extensive nomenclature (we
do not pledge ourselves for the truth of the theatrical story) 11
that there were at one and the same period, three individuals
in this country hunting fox hounds all of the familiar appella-
tion of Tom Smith—viz.: Thomas Assheton Smith, Esq.,
hunting his own hounds ; Thomas Smith, Esq., hunting
the Craven, a subscription pack ; and Thomas Smith, those
of the late Lord Middleton. This was an odd, coincidence ;
and were our phrenologists to examine the craniums of such
Tom Smiths as might be available, there is reason to suppose
a harvest of bumps venatorial would reward the seatch.—
Sporting Review, No. H.
BRUTAL CONDUCT OF A HUSBAND TO HIS WIFE.—On
Saturday last, at Huddersfield Court House, before William
Brook and John Sutcliffe, Esqrs. Abraham Wood, of Hud-
dersfield, confectioner, was charged with a most brutal assault
on his wife, Mary Wood. It appeared that on the previous
evening he had come home in a state of intoxication, and
commenced a most unprovoked attack on his defenceless
wife, making use of the fireirons, particularly the shovel,
which he broke on her head. The poor woman exhibited
mrrks of the most savage brutality, her stays and' other parts
of her dress being literally saturated with gore. The magis-
trates, after severely reprobating his inhuman conduct, fined
him £5, and bound him over to keep the peace towards all her
Majesty's subjects, and his wife in particular, for a twelve-
month, himself in £2O, and two sureties in £lO each; the
fine he paid instanter, with considerable non-chalance, but it
was a considerable time ere he could find any one hardy
enough to enter into recognizances for him. They were at
length obtained, and he was dismissed.—Leeds Intelligencer.
OPENING OF ST. JAMES'S CHURCH, BRADFORD.—John
Wood, Esq., the patron or founder of this elegant and per-
fect structure, having requested of the Diocesan that his
church might be opened by license, until his Lordship's re-
turn from London, and his Lordship having consented to
this arrangement, divine service was commenced on Sunday
last in the presence of a crowded congregation, by the Rev.
George Bull, the intended Incumbent, who preached in the
morning and evening, his brother, the Rev. William Bull,
Incumbent of Sowerbyi taking the afternoon sermon. The
congregation had more the appearance of those which have
been long established than of those which usually assemble
on such occasions, and the responses during the whole
services, were most orderly, devotional, and animating, the
greater part of the persons present being provided with prayer
books. Mr. George Bull explained this gratifying circum-
stance when stating,*that for two years past, Mr. Wood had,
at his sole charge, maintained a large Sunday-school, con-
siderably supported day schools, and provided all expenses
for the regular performance of the services of the Church of
England, in the commodious and !appropriate school-room
which he had erected near the church in 1836. This is cer-
tainly an effective method of providing, as he observed, for
the tenants as' well as the house, and the good resulting
from the plan was sufficiently manifest. Collections were
made for the Church Pastoral Aid Society, amounting to
£2O 10s. 7d.
LINEN.—The Egyptians appear to have been the inventors
of weaving linen cloth. The Athenians, who were an Egyp-
tian colony from. Sais, followed the custom of their ancestors,
by applying themselves to raising flax for the same purpose.
They, therefore, continued to worship Minerva whom they
also styled Ergatris, or the work-woman, for her excellency
in spinning and weaving, and who is supposed to be no other
than the Egyptian Isis; for the Egyptians, to remind the
people of the importance of their linen manufactory, exposed
in their festivals an image, bearing in its right hand the beam
or instrument round which the weavers rolled the warp of
their cloth. This image was called Minerva, from Manevro,
a weaver's loom. The name of Athene, that is also given to
this goddess, is the very word denoting in Egypt the flaxen
thread used in their looms. Near this figure, which was in-
tended to warn the inhabitants of the approach of the weaving
or winter season, they placed another, of an insect, whose
industry is supposed to have given rise to art, and to which
they gave the names of Arachne, (from arach, to make linen
cloth,) to denote its application. All these emblems, trans-
ported to Greeceovere, by the genius of a people fond of the
marvellous, converted into real objects, and indeed afforded
ample room for the imagination of the' poets to invent the
fable of the transformation of Arachne into a spider.—Gar-
deners' Gazette.
AFFAIRS AT NEW ORLEANS.—The giraffe exhibition
down town has shut up shop. Money went out faster than
it came in. The animal ate more than he made. He didn't
earn the salt for his porridge. The proprietors of " the
tallest animal yet" have no right to grumble, however ; for
nothing has prOspered in New Orleans the present season.
Johnny Maffitt drew poor houses at the Methodist Church.
Miss Nelson drew poor houses. Miss Clifton did'nt draw
good houses. Mons. Adrien lost 700 dollars during his short
exhibition in Chartres-street. George Holland's Lyceum
opened for twenty nights, and closed after three. The
panorama of Paris, in Orleans-street, is empty every night.
Forrest has played half the time to half-filled benches, after
a long absence. The calaboose is full of people, who have
had to steal or starves The post-office is covered with ad-
vertisements for situations : a meal a day and a bed at night
the only salary required. Empty stores "to let," and
empty bellies in want of stores. Poor people traipsing the
streets, with their shoel tied up at the heel with red or white
tape, pack-thread, or rope-yarn. Jeremy Diddlers at every
corner, inquiring " have you got such a thing as to 'pence
about you ?" Answer always in the negative. " Horrid
times !' the cry of everybody, but the marchands, who cry,
" Come buy ! come buy !" Ball-rooms losing money. " Stop
that ball !" the order of the fiddlers. " Copy enough !"
bawls the devil. " Finis !" bawls the editor.—New Orleans
Sun.
THE WESLEi'AN MISSION Slim—The committee of the
Wesleyan Missionary Society have purchased a vessel, to be
employed exclusively under their direction. She has been exa-
mined by competent persons; and pronounced in all respects
suitable to the service which will be required of her, in con-
veying missionaries and stores between the colonies of New
South Wales and Van Dieman's Land, and the Friendly
Islands, the Fejees, and other groups and islands of the Great
South Pacific Ocean. It is expected that advantage will be
taken of this opportunity to send a reinforcement of mission-
aries to the several missions in that part of the world, as well
as a large supply of goods of all kinds, for the use of the
mission ; but especially for such as have no circulating me-
dium, and where the necessaries of life have to be obtained
by bar, as in South Australia, New Zealand, Tonga, Haabai,
Vavou, Fejee, and other islands. We have no doubt that the
missions will be greatly aided by the valuable cargo which the
ship will convey to them, at this opportunity, once for all, as
she is not intended to return to this country ; and that the
more perfect means of intercommunication which will be thus
afforded to those important missions will greatly facilitate the
operations now in progress for the more perfect instruction
and civilization of the inhabitants of these extensive regions.
It will be remembered that the missions in South Australia,
in New Zealand, Tonga, Habaai, Vanou, and Fejee, (in all,
eleven stations,) are established among the aborigines of the
respective countries ; and that, in general, the natives are de-
pendent on the missionary society for the supply of such ar-
ticles as those which are now requested.—Watchman.
MURDEROUS ATTACK.—On Sunday night, about nine
o'clock, a fellow of decent exterior (being respectably clothed
and wrapped in .a mackintosh) entered the kitchen of Mr.
Wilmot s house, at Coundon, which is in a somewhat se-
cluded situation near Coventry, and enquired of a female
servant if her master was at home, to which she replied in
the affirmative. He then asked whether Mr. Wilmot had
any company, and the servant answered he had not ; she
believed her master was• alone in the parlour; upon which
" the man in the mackintosh" said .he wanted to see him,
and at this moment, observing Mr. Wilmot passing from one
parlour into another, followed him, and in a very uncere-
monious manner told him he wanted him to sign a check for
£3O. Mr. Wilmot, of course, began to express his astonish-
ment at such a request, and without hesitation refused to
comply ; upon which the fellow made a peremptory demand,
and intimated very distinctly that the only alternative was
for Mr. Wilmot either to give the check or his life, and at
the same moment drew from under his mackintosh a coaple
of pistols. Most fortunately it happened that Mr. Swan
Wilson, a neighbouring farmer, was in the adjoining room,
where had been sitting with Mr. Wilmot, and being alarmed
went to his assistance, and at the desperate and critical mo-
ment when the ruffian was levelling one pistol at Mr. Wilmot
rushed in, and, by a prompt blow on the assassin's arm just
at the instant of pulling the trigger, diverted the direction of
the ball discharged from the pistol, which, missing the ob-
ject for whom it was intended, struck the wall near the ceil-
ing. Baulked in his first attempt, the blood-thirsty villain,
without the least delay, snapped the second pistol at Mr.
Wilson, who was most miraculously saved by the failing of
the deadly weapon to go off; for, although the percussion
cap exploded, it did not take effect upon the contents of the
barrel. The pistol discharged at Mr. Wilmot had a common
flat lock. It may naturally be supposed that by this time the
whole of the family and domestics were in a state of the ut-
most terror and consternation, and the only male servant had
come up to the assistance of his master. Defeated in his
murderous purpose, the daring villain made a desperate re-
sistance, and did not suffer himself to be captured till he had
received from Mr. Wilson some rather severe punishment
about the bead and face. At length he was made secure by
the pinioning of his arms and legs, and upon being searched,
he was found to have upon his person a complete apparatus
for robbery and murder, consisting of a portable dark lan-
tern, phosphorus-box, lucifer matches, and sand-card, be-
sides an ample supply of bullets and gunpowder. Having
been made fast to prevent his escape, a messenger was sent
to Coventry for officers to take him into custody, and he was
ultimately conveyed to the station-house and brought up on
Monday before the Coventry magistrates, by whom he was
ordered to be taken to Anstey on the following day, to un-
dergo examination by the Warwickshire magistrates, the
offence having been committed within their jurisdiction. We
understand that the fellow had some knowledge of Mr. Wil-
mot's premises, for having had occasion to call there a short
time ago to deliver up a dog which had been lost, and for
which he was treated with great liberality, besides receiving
the reward offered for the recovery of the dog. He gives
his name as William Read, and states that he comes from
Birmingham.—Leamington Spa Courier.
