A respectable Clergyman, who had long labouted
is his profession, being far adeauced in years, having
a very small life income cad a very Large family, was
'induced, by some accounts which he had heard of the
great benevolence of the Duke of YORE, to apply to hit
Royal Highness for a commission for his second son, a
(promising young man,. who, ',tithed Kt serve his King
and country in the army. He mentioned to some dl
his friends his intention of making she application, but
be was told that it must be in vain, as several instances
had then trecently occurred of refirealereturned to ay-
plications for commissions made by persons who pos-
sessed political. interest. Some of these instances a ere
'mentioned, to him; cad his intention to apply, though
without any interest, whatever, was, ridiculed. He re-
plied to those wins shoe disc:outraged limb that still he
would " try his chance." He did snits the applica-
tion,, and- sent it, accompanied by respectable certificates
of his excellent character, hit clerical services, hit very
narrow circamstances, his advanced years, and large
gamily, and of the fitness of his son for the situation
solicited. He received, by return of -poet; an answer,
by order of the Duke of York, that his son should have
a commission; middle young mans name appeared in
the reef neat Gazelle of military appointments.
The body of Mr. Crompton, of Manchester, who, it
will be recollected, suddenly disappeared six weeks mg*
and for whom a long search had been made, has at
length been discovered in the river, near Carrington. In
the pockets were r watch, a silver pencil case, a memo-
randum book, and other articles, which the unfortunate
Gentleman was known to have about him when he die
appeared ; and which, as well as the body, were imme-
diately recognised by his relatives. As the last time
Mr. Crompton was seen was when he left the Bolton
boat, near Oldfield•ruad, it appears probable from this
discovery, that he must have fallen into the canal
somewhere near the locks communicating with the
river, into which his body had been subsequently car-
ried.—Afairchester Mercury.
A Lady, very much afflicted with nervous com-
plaints, went to consult Mr. A—y ; the rough and
caustic manner in which he catechised her so discom-
posed the fair one's weak spirits, that she was thrown
into a fit of hysterics. On parting, the Lady put the
usual fee into his hand, in the form of a sovereign and
a shilling. Air. A—y pocketed the sovereign with
one hand, and with the other presented the shilling to
her, saying gravely, " Here, Madamt.take this
go to the nest toy shop, buy a skipptinktope, and. naa
it every day. It will do you more good• than all Int
prescriptions."

rtzs IN CNANCERY.

Mr. D.W. HARVEY, in mowing for returns of all
Fees received in Banks nptty ens-s in the Court of Chars
eery, from the Ist of 'October, 1825, to the Ist of Oct.
1826, stated, his object was to thew that his former
statement (contra qtr.. by Mr. G. Bankes), that
the Lord Chantellor's emolum nts from that source
alone were mote than he stated, that is 20,0001. per
annum. He would confine his returns to the period be-
tween October, 182.5, And October, 1826; and he hoped
they would convince the Hciose of the greatness of the
abuse, and thereby settle the question—that 'his Lord-
ship had received during that period So,oool—(heat)
from bankruptcy cases al me. The Hon Member moved
for returns of all sums of fees received on 8540 dockets
struck during the period alluded to, on 361 petitions
'from bankrupts, on orders on tit, se commissions, on
3200 certificates, &c. eke. stating the total amount of
fees received, and the application there if.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL reminded the Hon.
?dauber that the fees of the . Court of Chancery were
stated to the House during the Chancellorship of Lord
Roselyn, and since that, down to the year' 1811, by
Lord Eldon, and were a subject of inquiry to the late
Chancery Commission. He would not oppose the
Motion, but would wish it to extend to a longer
period, so that the average of years might be taken;
and that average would be found not to amount to
4,0001. per annum. So far from the Lord Chancellor%l
receiving sopoci. per annum from Bankrupt caws!
alone, his whole income did not amount to 15,00:1 per
annum. He would extend the motion to the year 1811,
the date of the last returns.
Sergeant ONSLOW condemned the sweeping and gross censure
of ties present Bankruptcy Comnshelooers, made a few nights since,
by the Ham Member for.Colchester.
Mr. W. BAN ELS wished to know whether the fees la the re-
turns were to be only those received by the Lord Chancellories. in.
chided all received on Bankruptcy cases?
Mr. W. HARVEY replied. He had no **ties to extending
the Resolution, as the average would enforce tbe pelociple of the
lad he had in view. •
The question was then put sad carried.
The ATTORNEY GENERAL then slid what he Srst in-
tended to priories as an amendment, he would pet to the form of a

stated by lion. Gentlemen) soomoi. a year front fees accruing to

with by name. Persons of ear foss religious denomina-
tions live together upon the most friendly terms, having
common interests to defend, and enjoying emission re-
claims in the widest tense of the word. This en ightened.
policy has produced- its ustial fruits in renting up all.
animosity betwees the different beets, and substituting
in its stead sentiments more congenial to the mild spirit
of Christianity, and mire consistent with the harmony
which it is the interest of all Governments to foe-

!Wither good effects in a word, it has taken from Cacho.

throughout Prussia, quite as tolerant and as lore! as'
their Protestant fellow subjects. In Ibis beneficial re.
'form are included the Clergy, as well as the Laymen ;
and whilst the tvao ants are thus distinguished only in
name, even this slight distinction, thanks to tt* en
lightened policy of the Government, is destined to dis-
appear shortly. Several Catholic Clergymen in Silesia,
as we learn from an article in this Paper, have pre-
sented an Address to their Superior% the Prince Bi-
shop .9f. BR CS 1.,* W, respecting the ebolition of visions

adverse to the influence of religion. It seems from this
Address, which has been printed and published, that
they desire first of all and especially the improvement'
of the Liturgy.. They ask that, to promote devotion
during Divine Service, the singing of hymns ;hall be.
intro:lured ; and in some parishes Catholic Hymn books
, are in t.sct already introduced. They also tequile that.

conclude:—s, If the holy mass is ever again to beconse
a great and solemn act, impressing the mind and prq.
ducing happy effects, it must undergo throughout
many changes. What splendour would be imparted
lo our Church if it were refined from the dross, ands
restored to its apostolic purity, and if regard were paid'
in its institutions to the wants of the present age !"
This important step on the part of the Clergy of Silesia
will, it is observed, be attended with the most inspor-
iant consequences. Silesia, the largest and richest pro--
'ince in the Prussian dominions, contains two millions
of inhabitants, of whom one-half at least belong to the
Catholic church. The improvements in the education
of the people. joined to the liberal policy of
'ern ment, have, it is said, produced the happiest
an assertion which will not find many sceptics

DRIADVOL Accrostai.--A fatal sad most truly 4'r,.
tresaing accident oecurked on Saturday morning last in.
Princess-sti eet, at the excavation leading to the intended
new tunnel under the Float. About seven o'clock in
the morning as the men were employed in the works,
sortie of the timber props, it is supposed, were struck
too early, when a large body of the earth gave way,
and fell upon three men IA ho were employed below.
One of them clung to the rope by which the basket
was suspended, and raised himself by means of the tim-
ber,with only a slight injury in his hands; the other two un-
fortunate men were immolated beneath the fallen earth.
It is supposed that the bucket had prevented the mass
of earth from immediately falling upon and crushing
them, and it was hoped that they (had got under the
tunnel, and had yet a chance of escape. A number of
hands was employed in removing the fallen earth; and
At times faint exclaim ions are said to have been heard
from one or both of them. About eleven o'clock one
of them answered to his name, and said if the bucket
was raised they should be able to breathe. This was
attempted ; but, from either neglecting to secure the
progress they had made, or from some other circum-
stances, a fresh fall of earth rendered the chance of
rescuing them more distant than ever. There has
been two whole days and nights employed to arrive at
a depth of little more than twenty feet. About five
o'clock yesterday afternoon (Sunday) they bad cut as
deep as they calculated the bodies were, and had then
ten feet of tunnelling to cut through to get at them. Ail
hopes of saving the lives of the unfortunate men hate
been long extinguished. Their names are John Rogers
and William Bright, the former a stone-mason, and lived
at Bedmiaster, who has left a widow and five children
utterly destitute, the latter was a labourer or navigator,'
and has left a wife and three children in the samestate.
If the bodies are found before we go to press we will
communicate the particulars.
MONDAY, One o'Ctocn r.u.—The crowd which
has during the dry surrounded the excavation at
which the workmen are endeavouring to recover the
bodies have gradually dispersed, but many still lin-
ger, in the expectation that they will, ere long, be
brought to the surface. The most intense anxiety
has been manifested by the many thousands who
have visited the spot in the course of the day.-1
About five o'clock this morning a rush of water
suspended the progress of the work when they had
proceeded about seven or eight feet in a collateral
direction. From that time till eleven o'clock they were
employed in emptying the water, and shortly after re-
suming the work they came in sight of the bodies.—
They were lying together, with a large piece of timber
pressing against the head of the uppermost: their dis-
figured bodies present a horrible spectacle. The fact
of their discovery has been kept a secret, in order that
the crowd may not be prevented from retiring, and
least any such, to gratify an idle curiosity, should lead
to further accident.—Bristol Mercury.

EITSAOIDINA CHAROIL—Sarah Mills, a smart little female,
was charged with assaulting Richard Paul Jodrell, Esq. by throw-
ing her arms round his neck and kissing him, on Saturday, in Pen.
land-place.
It is well known,. that in consequence of infirmity, the person
and property of this axed and distinguished gentleman have been
placed by the Court of Chancery under the care of a Committee.
Mr. Robert Gower Smith is directed by Sir George Tuthill con-
stantly to attend him, and he stated that, on Saturday, when Mr.,
Jodrell alighted from his carriage, at his own door, the defendant
took him by the hand, put her arms round his Peck, and said,
" How do you do, my dear Mr. Jodrell," and kissed him, whirls
conduct he considered likely to increase his disorder.
Mr. RAWIJNIOIIasked Mr. Smith, if the Ludy had ever been to
tbebouse? He answered, formerly she had been shore, and now
frequently passed and kissed her hand to Mr. Jodrell.
'lie defendant acknowledged that she took Mr. Jodrell by the
hand, and did not deny that she saluted him, and be, in return,
(said the defendant) exclaimed, " GOD bless you, my deer Mu.
Mills, I am obliged to you," but most certainly the did not put her
arms round his neck.

Mr. Rawttalos told her it was not only an assault, but a con-
tempt of the Coutt of Chancery, for which, if complaint was made,
the Lord Chancellor would commit her. Being a. single 11111MII,
she could herself give security, and, therefore, be held bet in the
sum of 1001. nut to molest Mr. Jodrell in future, and teatime say

which have already !men agreed upon.
But Considering the irritation of the Turkish Govern-
ment, the three Ministers have reiabred to send tftrir
wives and children out of the reach of (Langer.

In consequence of this, the Maichinsess de Riheau-
pierre, the Countess Guilleminot, and Lady Stratford
Canning, with their families, are already embarked ;
'the latter is accompanied by Mr. Turner, the principal
counsellor of Legation, and his lady. It is thought
they will go to Odessa. Count Guilleminot se,it his
brother-in-law, General Fernig, express to Paris, and
M. de Valney to Smyrna, in order to give information
to Admiral de Rigny of what is passing. The ca tal
still enjoys a state of tranquillity ; but the departure
of the Ambassadors' ladies will undoubtedly create a
great fermentation.
Accounts from Syra, to the 2/sil August, do not men-
tion the arrival of the Egyptian fleet. Some persons
begin to believe that the English fleet, before the com-
mencement of the intended esecutive measures, may
have given it notice to put back.

DUTCH PAPERS.

HAARLRSI, Nortauels 29.

The Abel, Tasman, which felt Java in Angost, has
brought Batavi3n Journals from '24:h July to I Ith Aug.
They make no in, ntion of the submission of any mote
of the Native Chiefs ; and, s n thew hole, they coniaii
bet little relative to the political or military affairs of the I
Island of Java. It appears, however, that in the month
of July hostilities still continued ; that the insurgents
had made repeated attacks on the Dutch tro ps in Pas.
sae Gedy, but had always been repulsed with peat loss.
The Paper of 31st July says, that the insurgents, not-
withstanding their losses, obstinately persisted in assert
ing a position near Djocjocaria, so that General de Cock
had been obliged to place himself at the head of some
trcops to repulse them. The issue of his expedition is
not stated. The Prince of Orange, cne of the ships
which left the Texel in April with the troops that were
on board the Wassemaar, arrived at Batavia on the ed
August; and. the Wilhehnina, from Rotterdam, the day
after; Colonel Nahuy sous was on board this ship.

The Imperial Buss an Ambassador, M. de Ribeao-

tion of the 6th of July, has issued a circular to the Cap-
tains of all Its,sian ships, forbidding them to take on
board amniunitiwo or provi,ions for the belligerent
Powers, under pain of confiscation. The order is sup-
posed to be introductory to the measures tp be carried
into effect by the Allied Powers, for the pacification of
tireece. The Ultimate*. has not yet been pre-ented by
the three Ministers, and the Porte does not seem di,-
posed to receive it favourably. The capita' is tranquil,

The cue was this--The prosecutor, a fishmonger, was
returning home on the night of the 7th of last May,
about eleven o'clock, from the Peel's Arms public-fkouse,
when the prisoner, with whom be had previously bees
drinking. came up, with a bludgeon in his hand, and,
threatened to knock his brains out if he did not give him
two shillings. The prosecutor drew out half a crow*
from his pocket, which be gave the prisoner.
On cross-examination, the prosecutor admitted that
be had agreed to compromise the affair, if his money
were restored to him, and all his expenses paid. fie
had acknowledged to a woman, that the prisoner
owed him half a crown, but did not then mention that
he bad lobbed him.
Mr. Justice BAYLEY observed to the Jury, that the
fact of the prosecutor's hating made an offer to compro-

This Court was occupied thronghoet the day with
the cause of the King v. the Mersey and Irwell Naviga-
tion Company. The subject has already been both be-
fore the Courts of Law and Equity. The present pro-
ceeding is adopted by the Corporation of Liverpool, as
conservators of the harbour and navigation of the
Mersey. and owners of the Port of Liverpool against the
Mersey and Irsvell Navigation Company on account of
the latter having dug a feeder, or stream, by which so
much of ti.e Mersey water is carried off as to prevent a
a sufficient ingress of the sea to scour off at ebb the sand
and filth brought down by the streams running into the
river. The alleged consequence of which is, that sand
banks are formed which impede the navigation of the
river to a very great degree. The ease on the part of the
prosecution closed at 7.late hour thisevening. It consisted
of a vast body of witnesses, whe swore that the na-
vigation of the Mersey bad been considerably impeded,
Irons the alleged cause, within the last six years; Bor-
ing which time the feeder had been in full effect. The
case excites considerable local interest.

bearing, calling upon them to consider the facts as laid
down before them, and take into consideration every
circumstance which would lead•to mitigation in behalf

His Honour Deeutster Hatrwonb, in brief bat forci-
ble terms, expressed his concurrence in the opinion al-
ready delivered by his Learned Brother.
About three o'clock the Jury retired, and at a quarter
before four they returned with a verdict—Guilty.
His Honour Deemster CHRISTIAN, having ordered
silence in the Court, then addressed the prisoner, and
said that it became his duty, before passing the awful
sentence of the law, to revert to the circumstance of un-
firtunately giving way to sudden impulses of passion;
for had he hearkened to the voice of his • wife on Asti
evening, who seemed to have acted the part of an affec-
tionate partner towards him, he would not have had
to stand in the awful situation in which he was then
placed. He, strenuously urged him to employ the short
time allotted him in sincere repentance, and recom-
mended him to call in the aid of pious individuals. He
then proceeded to pass the awful sentence of the
