It aprears by these averages, that the extreme high
prices of 97 and 83 have only been maintained for a
short period, and that 80 may be considered a high
price, as only three averages (from 1786 till 1824) have
reached that price. In respect of the great advance of
1817 and 1824, it may be observed, the sudden reduc-
tion in the rate of interest of money operated at both
periods as the principal cause.

?ROM THE HEREFORD JOURNAL.

Our worthy representative, It. Pike, Esq. with his
usual attention to the interests of this county and city,
has made a successful application to the Lords of the
Treasury, for an extension of time in the payment of
Excise Duties due in the present week. The.peculiai
difficulties attendant on all money transactions since
our flanks have been closed, induced Mr. Price, without
any solicitation, to submit an appeal, equally honoura-
ble to himself and beneficial to the parties particularly
intereste.i. It was met by the Lords of the Treasury
vt ith so obliging an attention, and so prompt a corn-
',fiance, as to .superscie the necessity of any further
ex lanation ; (COP Y.)

in the Coilectiim of the duties to those persons who may be suffering
under the peculiar circumstances of the times, which may be con-

Office, was brought by Pord,the officer, before Mr. Hems, charged
with baying, in a paroxysm of passion, cut the head, face, and neck,
of a girl named Hannah Sweeny (who resided with ber parents in
the same house as the prisoner), in so shocking a manner, that it is
doubtful if she will recover. The child was at play about five
o'clock in the evening, and the prisoner threw some water over her;
and because she said that she would tell her father, the brutal crea-
ture struck the girl a desperate blow with a large earthen pot on
the head, which inflicted a wound several inches in length, and of
half an inch in depth. There was another *mind in the face, and
a eonsidcrahle perforation in the neck. The girl was carried to the

obtain the high encomiums of Colonel MOILIAND, who took oc.
casion to express himself particularly satisfied with their equipments,
the orderly state of their arms, the correctness of their evolutions,
and their satadiness and solillerlike appearance in the field. Colonel
Mourns was pleased also to take notice of the exemplary attend.
ante of the men, and said that he had remarked the same proof o
spirit, while lately inspecting the Yeomanry of Stirfingshire, under

LAW REPORT.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Orr. ta.
LORD ARUNDEL D. EDWARD MIACKELL.

'This was a criminal information filed at the instance
.of the plaintiff, for having published a statement that he
bad dismissed a faithful Protestant servant, whose pro-
genitors had been in the employ of the Arundel family
for many generations—not for misconduct, but.purety
for refusing to abjure his—feligiiin, and turn Catholic,
the known persuasion of the Noble Lord. The de-
fendant had inserted a full contradiction and apology in
-a subsequent publication, and had offered to give up
•the manuscript. Still the Nobleman pressed this pro-
secution, which ended in the Jury giving a verdict of
guilty, under the direction of the Judge, that if they
thought, individually, they should have felt aggrieved
if such an attack had been made on them, they would
find for the plaintiff; if otherwise, for the defendant.

LOYD AND OTHERS D. EREEHMIELD AND ANOTHER.
This was as action brought by the plaintiff's to re-
v o'er the sum of 7,0001. of the defendants, under the
following circumstances t In August, 1825, Mr. Charles
Kaye, who was at that time a partner in the deendant's
firm, applied in the name of the firm to the plaintiffs
for the loan of a sum of money on behalf of a Mr.
Lee, a Gentleman of property, residing at Chester, who
was a client of Messrs. Fre.•hfie!d and Co. and known
to the plaintiffs, who had before transacted business for
him. Fourteen thousand pounds was advanced to Nlr.
Charles Kaye by the plaintiffs on Mr. Lee's aceount. It
was afterwards ascertained that Mr. Lee had not autho-
ri,ed the procuration of the money for him, and was
wholly ignorant of the transaction between Mr. Charles
Kaye and the plaintiffs. These were the principal facts
of the ease, as stated by Mr. Brougham, for the plain.
tiffs-7,0001. of the money had been refunded by Mr.
Charles Kaye, and the plaintiffs now sought to recover
the remaining 7,0001. No blame whatever was imputed
to the defendants in the transaction with the plaintiffs.
The evidence adduced for the plaintiffs did not bear out Mr.
ffirougham's statement, chat the money was obtained by Mr. Charles
Kaye, in the name of the firm of Freslifield and Co. or that it was
applied for the partnership purposes.
Mr. ScriaLsrr addressed the Jury shortly on the evidence, and
sifter a short summing up by the Joan C►tter JUSTICE, the Jury,
immedi.itely returned a verdict for the defendants.

with the exemplary order and management in the iatetior economy,

painted on each door of the coach. He immediately Mid the penalty
(XS) and costs. Within three hairs after that conviction, the infer.
mer Johnson laid another information against the same coach, fee
the same offence. The defendant, however, the applicant said, bad
never received any summons on this second information. hs ellf•

the information already disposed of. The information cameos for

The Magistrate could not admit the propriety of the appliesnee
reasoning, for in that case, a defendant having paid one penalty,
might go on offending ad in./toolbars. He regretted that the pude,

as the conviction had been returned to the Sessions, and there!

The passing year, all grey with hours,

Chilled his summer, dead his flowers,
Soon will his funeral be ;
trait stall drink up his latest breath,
And tempests rock him into death !
How be shivers ! from his age

All his leaves have faded,
And his weary pilgrimage

End+ at last unaided
By his own sun that dims its ray,
To leave him dark in his decay!

In hollow sounds his doom,
While scarce a sear its pale course steers

Athwart the sullen gloom,
And Nature leaves him to his fate,
Tokio grey hair a cold ingrate !

Whose spring-flowers soon shall rise—.

Nor wisely moralize

Saturday Captain Parry commissioned the Hecla, at
Deptford, the fitting out of which commences directly,
for the voyage to Spitsbergen. Lieutenants Itosi,
Foster, and Crozier, are appointed to her, and Mr.
liaise, as purser. It is intended that the Hecla shall
leave the Thames on the Ist of May next, and steer her
course pretty directly for Spitsbergen. Here she will
be lelt in charge of a small portion of the crew, while
the rest of the company, in two divisions, will pursue
the main objects of the enterprise., with boats consti ucted
for the purpose. Captain Parry and Lieuten,im ltnss
will proceed directly towards the Pole, and get under
it if possible; while Lieutenant Foster, in cernmand of
another party, will branch out in a different course, to
find out, if he can, into what part of the northern seas
the whales, which of late years have becon.e scarce in
those places which they formerly frequented, hate now
fixed their abode. The moie of proceeding in this
perilous undertaking will be thus: At Spitsbergen, the
boats will be placed upon sledges, and dr 4wn aloud; by
' such animals as may be met with (Shetland ponies will
probably be used in the first instance), and in case of
failure of animals for the purpose the crew will lug
the boats until they come to open water, when the barks
will be launched from their sledges, and be rowed in
their proper element; and thus alternately serve s'.c
purposes of land carriage and aquatic barges. NVlren
the respective patties have made such observations and
researches as they may be enabled to accomplish, they
will return in a similar manner to the Hecla, and the
objects of the Expedition being coop/sled, they will
sail direct for England.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

IMPORTANT TO MARINERS.

le Sea—ln consequence of reading in a Morning Paper au im-
portant notice relative to Lighthouses in the Bay of Away, I as.
same the liberty of adding the following remarks
" The Acquillon Towers (described in the Petit'Neptune as
Lighthouses) still serve as the leading mark into the Loire, the
two towers (not lighted) being brought into one line, and bearing,
by compass. N.R. R.
" The Lighthouse on the Four(of which the situation has not been
given) stands at Si miles true west from Croisie Point, on the
northernmost dry rocks of the Four Bank. It is a round tower of
stone, and, as already mentioned, exhibits a revolving light.
" The situation of the Tower on the La &ache has not bees
given; and. as this shoal is 3e miles long, from Les Trois Pietro;
on the N. W. to the Turk Rock on the S. IL it is requisite to men-
tion that the beacon on it is a round tower of stone, 30 or 40 feet
in height, and erected on the Turk Rock.
" The route of the vessels bound to the Loire, or port of Nantes,
has commonly been to the northward of Le Four, and thence
south-east towards Croisie Point; so as to avoid intervening
dangers; but the channel to the river may be gained with more
facility, by entering between Le Four and La Banche, the south-
eastern part of theArst will be avoided, by keeping the Church of
Croide well °peel* the west of the steeple of Guerrande, and the
N. W. end of La Bancbe will be cleared by keeping the steeple of
Guerrande a sail's breadth to the N.W. of the tower of Batt.—
Either of these marks may be kept on until the New Lighthouse,
on the Tower Bank bears by compass N. W. W. and this line of
bearing. or a course S.R. S. will lead directly to the Bar of the
Loire Inlet; the towers of Acquillon appear, in one which is the
leading mark over the Bar as abovesnentinne.d.
" Another. important alteration in the light-houses of the Bay eat
Biscay, has not, I believe; been regularly communicated to the
British Public, though interesting to all vessels bound to the
Gironde, or port of Bordeaux. The Rdein Tower. on the N. W.
end of the Isle of Re, has for some time past had a light rising and
failing, which has the appearance of a revoking light. It may be
ism five or six leagues; more to the southward, it can be seen at
the distance of two or three leagues only.
61 It is generally, I believe, known, that the present light of Car-
' deman, at the entrance of the Gironde, is revolving, and of great
brilliancy, so as to be seen at more thee six leagues and a half off.
" I am, respectfully, Sir, your obedient servant,
