TO MR. RICHARD TURNER,

PREPARIIR OP TIM INCOMPARABLE JAPAN SLACKING.

Accept, Great Man ! a bumble bard's easy,
Ws cheerful tribute of applause to pay ;
For U applause be well-known merit's due.
The' you not court it, yet it ffies to you :
♦Wen all the world combine to praise thy name.
Who can forbear to weave the wreath of Fame?
In days of yore, when scarce one art was known,
And Science marked but few to call her owns
Should some great mind inventive then produce
Aught for his country's benefit or use,
With genuine pride that searehful mind was hailed,
Acd genial honour on his name entailed
And does not TURNER'S ever-honour'd name,
Deserve an equal meed of honest fame?
Does not that name above his compeers rite,
And claim th' applause of all beneath the skies?
Yes! who like him prepares that wondrous hue
That plants such gloss on every boot and shoe?
Whose Black like his can with the mirror vie,
Or give such polish'd shade of sable die ?
None I Taunts, here thou dolt unrivall'd stand,
ud, long as honour smiles along the land,
Eke shall be thine!—her chaplet long shall bloom,
And o'er thy genius breathe its mild perfume ;
Truth shall be proud great TOINIIt'S name to praise,
And save his memory from oblivion's maz

taken tip formally by Congress ; but the exertions of
Mr. Clarkson and other friends of that measure with
the Allied Sovereigns individually, when seconded $
by the recommendations of the English Minister, can
not be lost, or fail to produce beneficial results.—
Lord Castlereagh, among other memorials which he I
has brought with him from England, on different
subjects and from different individuals, is the bearer
of one from Mr. Wilberforce, on the Slave Trade,
which he will of course present, if any opportunity
occurs for making it a matter of discussion. The
exertions of Mr. Clarkson, who will make it his busi-
ness to obtain audiences of the Allied Sovereigns,
particularly of the Emperor Alexander, for explain-
ing the detail of the question, and enforcing the views
of the abolitionists, will come in aid of the represen-
tations of the Minister, and the pleadings of the ablest
advocate of the cause. Among the memorials also
which Lord Castlereagh has brought with him is one
from Sir Joseph Banks on the subject of the Barbary
Powers.—Madame Vitrolles, the Ambassatrix of the
Ultras, is said to have made several attempts to ob-
tain an interview with the Emperor Alexander, with-
out effect: she therefore left Aix-la-Chapelle yester-
day in despair, and is now on her way to Paris."

DRURY-LANE THEATRE.

In the Comedy of A New Way to Pay Old Debts,
on Saturday, KEAN acted the part of Sir Giles Over-
reach, in his best style, and with great applause. The
hypocrisy and unblushing baseness which belong to
the aspiring father, he pourtrayed with great fide-
lity; and the tempest of fury by which Sir Giles is
finally agitated, when the results of his scheming are
developed in the disappointment of his ambition and
the annihilation of his hopes (though some of his
pauses might have been abridged or emitted with
advantage), was ably pictured, and merited the ap-
proving shouts which were his reward. STANLEY
took the character of Wellborn. Occasionally his
manner of speaking was too precise and affected, but
upon the whole he sustained it with appropriate ani-
mation, and the effort gave- universal satisfaction.
Mumma-es Marrall was the source of hearty laugh-
ter, and OXBERRY depicted with much whim the
hungry agonies of Justice Greedy. The Farce of the
Weathercock brought forward a new performer in
Trierans Fickle. This Gentleman, we understand,
comes from the Cobourg Theatre, where lie had ac-
quired considerable celebrity. Ile proved himself
possessed of sufficient vivacity to give effect to all the
extravagancies it was his duty to represent ; and al-'
though we may have witnessed a greater display of
versatility in the part, we never saw the transition
from the Quaker to the Beau more adroitly managed,
and this occurring as it did at the close of the Piece,
was decisive of success, and united the whole house
in a tumult of approbation.

AMERICAN PAPERS.

Boston Papers arrived this morning to the 22d .01
June. The following are extracts: • . •

-BOSTON, JUNE O. •
The Count de Menen has arrived at Waskingtoi,
and been presented by Mr.. Roth io the Secretary of
State, as Secretary of the French Legation.
Accounts from- Buenos-Ayres, to the 12th April,
state, that Admiral Lord Cochrane had taken Yak
divia, and that the Patriot troops were within 5.5
miles of Guayaquil.
FROM SPANISH AMERICA, JUNE 1.

A supposed conspiracy has been discovered at Va-
lencia, and the Mayor•has been shot. The Creoles
are said to be at the bottom of it, whose object was
to take the life of General Morillo, and destroy his
Army and all the old Spaniards. Six of the conspi-
rators have been shot, and a number of others were
yet to suffer. General Morillo has a strong military
force at Venezuela. The Patriots have possession of
Santa Fe, but two Spanish divisions have advanced
to oppose them. • Cumana and Barcelona •are quiet,
and in possession of the King's troops.
It was reported at Porto Cavello, that General Bo

livar had got back from Santa Fe, as was supposed
at Achagas, with a fresh supply of men and money.
The Patriot General, Paez, was at St. Fernando, with
his advance. General Morillo's head-quarters was
at. Valencia, and General Morales was at Calabosa.
Accounts from the Spanill Main. state, that the

Independent troops had fortified Rio de la Bache
very strongly, and left a sufficient garrison there to
defend it against any force that the Spaniards might
send against •it, and that a large detachment has
gone against St. Martha, the Independent fleet which
had sailed for the same place, co-operating in its
reduction.

composed of various States, loMe of them but Aewiy
united, • add ivhict of course tart/reit prejudices;
butt this he would undertake to saY, ihitt there were
not, in Europe, Provinces more happy—Provincesl
which possessed more of real practical liberty-:-Pro-
vinces which cherished a more sincere and affectioulte
attachment to the Government, than some of those
Austrian Provinces. He (Lord Liverpool) would not
do his duty, if he did not repel imputations cast upbn
a Government whose relationi, internal and external,
were conducted with purity, mild Less, and with thei
best and fairest intentions.

Lord HOLLAND, in explanation, said he did not
sprak of the conduct of the Austrian Government
with respect to its men subjects; but he did say, and
he would now repeat it, that not merely from the
examination of history—not merely from the con-
sideration of modern events, but from his own per-
sonal observation—for he was in Austria, though
certainly he never was in any of those happy pro-
vinces which the Noble Lord had described—he did
say, that there never was a Government, which, from
its conduct towards• inditiduals, from the days of
Charles the Fifth to the present time, had more uni•
formly displayed more meanness, more severity, and
more injustice, than the Austrian Government. Any'
persons who had ever lived in any of the provinces
dependent on that Government, would justify him in
that assertion. From what had fallen from the Noble
Earl at the head of the Treas try, he (Lord Holland)
must suppose, that Governm:nt had last night re-
ceived payment of the large sums due by Aus.ria to
Great Britain—(A lough).—lie was inclined to think
so from the very animated m inner in which the Noble
Lord bore testimony to the extraordinary hottest!, of
that Government—(A laugh):—He would, however,
again declare, that he never knew, that he never read,
of a Government that had been more uniformly mean
and unjust than the Government of Austria.
Lord CA ItNARVON strongly opposed ,the Bill.
He contended that there was nothing in the state of
Europe, nothing in the affairs of this country, that
went to justify a Bill which he ovoid call oppressive
and tyrannical.
Lord CALTHORPE said, that whilst he would
be willing to support Government to meet every
dangerous emergency, he could not agree to a mea-
sure which he did not think called for by circumstances,
and which, to strangers, ignorant of the language and
manners of the country, was peculiarly severe.
The House then divided, when there appeared,
For the second reading, Contents, 17—Non-Con-
tents, 7—Majority in favour of the Bill, 10.
The Bill was then read a second time, and ordered
to be committed.—Adjourned at Half-past Nine.

TUNBRIDGE "WELLS, JULY 24.

This place begins to fill with fashionable comb
pany, notwithstanding the number of families which
remain in town. A band of music, supported by
subscription, plays every day at nine o'clock in the
mot &co' and at three is the afternoon, on the Parade,
and the othet amusements of the place have already
commenced.—The damage done in this neighbour-
' hood by the late storms is incalculable. The wheat
and otl•er corn is beaten down, and the long grass in
some places laid as, flat as if it had been rolled down
with a garden rclLr. The hay harvest is not yet,
finished„, and a great deal of hay has been spoiled.
The effects of the weather have been molt felt in the
further parts of Sus ex, tow arc!s Lewes, East Grin-
stead, and Horsham. _ _

The greatest state of distress prevails among the
farmers; numerous individuals in this neighbourhood,
and about East Grinstead, are preparing to leave
their farms, on account of the great disproportion
between the products of their crops and the high
rents, by whiar they a; e distressed.

Recommended by the late Dr. Hunter, and other eminent
Physicians.
UDSON AND COMPANY respectfully inform
the Public, that having ikad continual objections to the fo-
reign name of" lIU ILE DIVINE,' they have, at the sugges-
tion of numerous Friends, adopted that of BOTANIC OIL,"
as more appropriate, it being made from a manuscript recipe of
Culpeper, the celebrated English Botanist.
Where the Hair has fallen of from illness, perspiration,
change of climate, &c. the Botanic Oil will infallibly restore it.
In ordinary cases, a 75.6 d. Bottle will prove its efficacy; but
where there has been great neglect, or where the party is advanced
in life, a certain perieverance is necessary. See testimonials of itsl
efficacy ill a Dissertation on the Hair, enclosed sound each Bottle.
It is also much esteemed by Ladies for dressing the Hair; it makes
it, if ever so bars's, beautifully soft and glossy, keep' it in curl, and
imparts a reviving grateful perfume. Frice 3s. 6d. 71. 6d. and

QIR FRANCIS COLOM BINE DANIEL, with the
k.. 7 mast lively sense of watitudi, returns his best thanks to
these Gentlemen who did him the honour of soliciting him on
Monday last to represent in Parliament thit truly respectable
Town of Grantham, in Lincolnshire. Sir Francis assures .the
worthy Electors that liscl he been apprised ofrheir wish earlier,
be would most certainly have done himself the bon* of ac-
cepting their kind Suffrages; and that in the event of any-future
vacancy, Sir Francis would consider it highly honourable to
represent so antient and so respectable a Borough. Sir Francis's
mind is Only independent, he is warmly attached to thOse prin-
ciples which placid the reigning Family on, the `crone; and
should he ever have'the bonourof being seturßed i o Parliament,

INSOLVENT DEBTORS BILL.

On the motion of Lord AUCKLAND, their' Lord-
ships went into a Committee on this Bill.
Lord REDESDALE proposed a clause for ap-
pointing one Commissioner, instead of three, as,the
Bill provided. He maintained, thit one Commis-
sioner would answer all the purposes required, and
the duties would be much better performed. As an
instance of the fact, it was only necessary for him to
advert to the Court of Exchequer, where, by an Act
of Parliament, all equity cases were decided by the
Chief Baron alone, and infinitely with more advan-
tage to the public interest than if three Judges were
engaged d.
Lor AUCKLAND expressed his dissent from the
opinion of the Noble and Learned Lord in this parti-
cular. •It appeared to him that three Commissioners
'were absolutely necessary. A material disadvantage
that resulted- from the late Bill was, that by providing
citly one Commissioner, the accounts of debtors were
frequently passed without any examination.
The Bar was then cleared for a division on the
clause, but no division took place, Lord REDESDALE
having consented to withdraw it.—Their Lordships
resumed, and the Bill was ordered to be received to-
morrow (this day).
Lord AUCKLAND said, that it had been his in-
tentiow to introduce a clause into the above Bills for
the purpose of providing relief for persons impri.
soned for contempt of the Court of Chancery, but the
Noble and Learned Lord on the Woolsack having
intimated that he would take the subject into his own
hands, he.(Lord Auckland) most gladly transferred
the task to that Noble Lord.

The LORD CHANCELLOR stated, that the provision to
which the Noble Lord alluded as being left with him (the Lord
Chancellor) to originate, would apply not only to individuals
imprisoned for contempt of the Court of Chancery, but also of
the other Courts.—Adjourned it Half-past Eight o'Clock. .

REVOLUTION IN NAPLES.

The fact which we mentioned yesterday, of a'
Revolution having taken place in the Kingdom of
Naples, similar in its origin and views to what has
taken place in Spain, is-fully confirmed. Government,
had the event communicated to them on Wednesday,

in official Dispatches from Sir WILLIAM A.Tourr,
the British Minister at Naples..

All the particulars of this interesting occurrence
are riot yet precisely ascertained, but enough is known
to mark the character of the Revolution, and to enable
any person, of common sagacity, to predict that it
must issue in the full establishment of popular rights

—in modifying; defining, and putting under respon-
sible legal controul, the powers of the Head of the Go-
vernment, and those of his immediate servants. We
say—it is impossible to doubt this issue ; for this im-
portant movement has originated with the military,
the only organ by which the Rulers could have hoped
to overawe and coerce any efforts the People might
make to ridthemselves of real or supposed grievances.
What is any arbitrary Government without the mili•
tary arm ? But what is it when that arm is lifted
against it ?
There are several traits of similarity between ibis
Revolution and that in Spain. In the latter king-
dom, the military had been employed -in 'enforcing
the mandates of a restored Government, dircted
against the very persons who had been most -active
in assisting to liberate the country: military were
collected, from time to time, to be employed in com-
pelling the Colonial dependencies to submit to the
most abominable despotism: military were, at the
moment of the Revolution, assembled for embark-
ation, to enforce arbitrary mandates.. The militaiy
hciiiettel—nay, the military resolved j but thelesolu-.

TO TIIE EDITOR OE THE STAR.

the Petition from the QUEEN, praying
to.bi--heard by Counsel at the Bar of the House of
Linils,previous to the first reading of the, Bill of
Painsand Penalties, was presented by Lord DACRE,
Lord ELLENBOROUEH stated, in opposing it, that
their Lordships ought not to grant to a Queen, what
they would deny to an humble individual." Let me
then ask_bis Lordship, and that august Assembly,
Why grant to a King what would be denied to an
humble individual, in the like case?—Marriage is a
sacred bond of union, contracted and consecrated
in presence of the ALSIIGHTY, and to the fulfilment
of which Ha is invoked as a witness ; neither of the
contracting parties can be absolved from their vows
of constancy and loves unless one of them violates the
obligation; but, if both dre equally guilty of the vio-
lation, no power but Death can sever the Gordian knot ! .

The princi'

mire Romilly, would have been excluded. But it
appeared that this was an Irish Master in Chancery.
Now he could see no difference whatever between an
Irish or an English Master in Chancery, so far as the
principle of the measure was concerned.
Lord KENYON spoke briefly against the clause.
If their Lordships should exclude the Gentleman
what& case was under consideration, they would
sanction a principle which might be applied to cases
that were not at present contemplated. fhe shortness
*of the time which this Gentleman had to attend his
office during the day, being only four hours, might
render it possible for an arrangement to be made
which would enable him to attend his duties in Parr
liament without any prejudice to the interests of his
clients. He was decidedly opposed to the clause;
and he was persuaded, that to adopt it would tend
to lower the character of Parliament.

Their Lordships then divided on the Amendment,
and the numbers were—

PHILADELPHIA, JUNE 16.

AFRICAN COLONY.—Several letters have been re-
ceived in this City, from the Agents of the Govern-
ment, dated after the arrival of the Colony at She-
relro, on the Western Coast of Africa, all of whiCh
are encouraging. The health of the Rev. Mr. Bacon,
and Mr. John Bankson, and, indeed, of all their
charge, was excellent. The most friendly reception
.‘as given them by the natives. Very soon after
landing, Religious Societies were commenced, at
which the natives attended. A Sunday School wab
opened under the cal e.of proper oficers.

COLONIAL DIFFICULTIES.

HALIFAX, JUNE 19.

At Barbadoes Lord COMBERMERE has found it
necessary to dissolve the General Assembly of that
island. At Nassau, New Providence, the colony has
been left destitute of a revenue for nearly three
years past, and the provincial officers are, of course,
suffering under great privations. At Bermuda, Sir
Wss. LONILEY addressed the House, on closing its
last Session, with.. strong marks of displeasure.—
Nor did Sir P. I%IAITLA ND, on proroguing the Assem-
bly at York, Upper Canada, appear to have been
well pleased with their conduct. The Parliament
of Lower Canada, after having declared itself in-
competent to act, refused to receive a Message from
the Administrator in Council, and the door of the
House is said to have been shut by order of the
Speaker. Governor SMYTH, of New Brunswick, on
closing the Session at Fredericktown, expresses a
hope that the time is not far _distant when that
honourable body will not require so large a re-
muneration fur its services. At Prince Edward's
Island, it may be seen, that Governor SMYTH con-
vened the Assembly lately, and after informing it
officially of the, recent events, and the happy Ac-
, cession of his Majesty GEORGE the FOCRTH to
the Throne of his Ancestors, dissolved the House,
without even receiving an Address in answer to his
Speech. In but it is unpleasant to go further.
Let us hoee•that unanimity and a good imderstand-
ing, between .the governors and the governed, may
henceforth characterize his Majesty's dominions in
all parts of the world.

DEBILITY AND STRICTURE.

TT was the Remark of the great Dr. Sydenham,
IT
that acute diseases are the punishment of lizascs ; but
that chronic ones are inflicted by ourselves. The consequence
of a prevailing malady proclaims too feelingly to the sufferers
this =welcome truth. What situation can be so pitiable where
the mind glows with passion which the infirmities of body can-
not indulge?—Where indiscretion, or oral-treatment have pro-
duced the premature debility of age in the sexual organs, and
where the bloom and rigour of manhood is no longer alive'to its
natural youthful fire ? To such Messrs. COOPER and Co. offer
every consolation, and the promise of a certain, safe, and per-
manent Cure, conductbd with the delicate secrecy it requires,
and speedily renovating the lost energies.
Nur are their sufferings less severe from another complaint.
STRICTURE occasiops a total deraagemeat of the ut inary.system;
the nights are harassed by pain, and the day by fruitless efforts
to gain relief. Here a regulated system, in the hands of science
and skill, overcome* every difficulty, and rouses the powers of
the constitution to act for itself; in the SUCC4SS of this principle
Messrs. Cooper and Co. have never failed, and Stricture is a
complaint always under their c=troul.

MR. LIGNUM'S ANTISCORBUTIC DROPS.
LIMIT TROY • 41EXTLIDIAX LATILLY RiSIDZNT IN SHRINFIRLD.
Salford, Manchester, I.:tb September, 1819.
DEAR SIR—For the good of the Public I wish
you to make known the following case :—Some years ago,
whilst residing in Sheffield, I had a severe attack of a scorbutic
complaint in my hands and face, occasioned, I believe, by drink-
ing cold nilk when in a state of perspiration. It came on in the
form of large blebs, filled with a clear watery fluid ; in a short
time these buntings were succeeded by sores of considerable
magnitude, attended with so much pain that I could get no rest.
I remained in this state fir several weeks, though I had the ad-
vice of a very -;ninent medical man then resident ia Sheffield. I
afterwards consulted a Surgeon in Atercliffe, but was alike' un-
successfuL As a last resource, I was determined to give your
ANTISCORHUTIC DROPS a trial, `and accordingly pur-
chased a small bottle from Miss Gales, Bookseller, In Sheffield,
and however incredible it miry appear, before I had finished
that single bottle the complaint was entirely removed. It is now
seven years since the cure waseffected, and I have had no return
whatever. I may just add, that another person, who had a si-
milar complaint, was induced by me to make trial, and the
Drops, in his case, were equally successful.—Any person v-:.hing
for further particulars, may have them by applying petsonally,
or by letter (post laic!) to Sir, your most obedient Servant,
