it is proved tbat the

holesome ingredients are
tubed with the ouiversal beverages of the People. It
is the iuterest end duty of individuals to detect and
prosecute, as much as in their power, such unprin.
opted frauds; but it is mere especially the duty of
the Boards and Officers who are paid by the Public
to watch over their safety and protect their interests,
to esert their vigilance in order to give an effectual
check to such pernicious abuses. This is the age of
crime and imposition ; and from whatever CAMS these
espedieuts in desperate pee (for respectable traders
most spurn and siseiblsq, at the thoughts of such
practices) to live upon the lives of others, if there
be means of suppressiag seth offences against the
Poblic weal and safety, let net the whole Wen•
tion of the servants of the Public be turned to
the ways and means of raising money for the
Government, whilst iovestigations of more vital ne-
cessity are required ; whilst the articles of human
toed are so glaringly adulterated, and the Public are
ire perpetual danger of being poisoned by wholesale.
There are anal other articles of human consumption
equally exposed to similar frauds. We need not
enumerate them. Thera is, in fact, scarcely an article
of ordinary consumption which is not rendered de-
structive by the infamous and fraudulent practices of
istteresterrpersons. This is a subject that deserves
the deepest consideration. The following mode of
discovering imitation tea, is recommended as a very
good one :—Lay the tea on wetted paper, and rub it,
it will easily discharge the colouring it receives from
logwood. Dutch pink, or verdigrise. The sloe leaves
may also be very easily detected by pouring hot
'ater upon the tea, and comparing the herbs with
each other.

304XP11 MACERON, the Treasurer of the parish of
St. matthe%, Bethnal•green, whose trial for misap-
plying sums of money, is given in another page, was
again brought up for trial this morning upon ane-
•t•er charge erifirg out of his magisterial conduct.
The proceedings were expected to last the whole
diy, as witnesses were examining at two o'clock; and
it was the first trial this morning.

BoROUGU ELEcytos.—The Friends of Freedom
will lei ,I(7e to hear that Sir ROBERT WILSoN has met
with the most nattering reception during his canvass,
and no doubt is entertained of his final success. We
give in'another column a letter to the Electors of
Southwark, which we recommend to their attention.
Saturday, about 12 o'clock, the Prince and Princess
of ilE•sell °meow left the Queen's Palace, and pro-
ceeded to Windsor Castle, on a visit to the Princess
SOPHIA ; fro,a thence they went to Frogmere. The
Prince and Prioress returned to town in the evening
to elide with the QUEEN end the Princess AUGUSTA.
On Saturday worming the Duke of KENT visited
the QuEy.v, the PRINCE REGENT, the Duke and
Ducite.% of CussesaLAsn, and the other branches of the
Roy ai Family, to take leave previous to his leaving
England. In the evening, soon after eight o'clock,
his Royal nighties% left li.nsiegton Palace for Dover,
there to embark on hoard a Royal yacht, and to sail
for Calais. The yacht is to wait there to bring the
Duke and Duchess of CAMBRIDGE to England.
The Doke of WELLINGTON snivel' at Duver on
Frihs, afternoon ; it was his Grace's intention to
embark immediately for Calais.
THE QUEEN.—liar MAJESTY enjoys the pleaseres
of socit•ty with undiminished comfort. She had a
Tarty both on Saturday night end last night. She
plays a robber at whist, and joins in a game of com-
merce, with the same pleasure as heretofore. But
being subject to spasms, that require immediate me-
dical attention, she has been advised to take up her
habitual residence in town ; rind, as we have stated, a
Bill is to be brought into Parliament to provide for
the possible emergency, as to the care of the Royal
Verson of the KING, in the event of her demise dot-
ing the dissolution of Parliament. The PRINCE Re-
GENT is to have a dress party to-morrow evening for
her M AJESTY'S amosemeut.
A Correspondent io a -
Morning Paper states, as
from undoubted authority, that no other cause es-
isted for Mr. BALcomßE's quitting his situation at St.
Helena, than the dangerous state of Mrs. BAccomes's
health at the time of her embarkation. The writer
suggests that if there had been any improper conduct
on the part of Mr. BALCOSIBC, Sir HUDSON Lows
would scarcely have been so indulgent as to appoint
CoLE, the partner of Mr. BALCOMBE, to act for
him as purveyor to BONAPARTE during the period of
hi` absence in England.
Tranquillity has been restored at Winchester Col-
lege. About 40 of the Gentlemen-commoners have
been allowed to resign. There were only ail (out of
230) who did not join in the revolt—the two senior
and four other College perfects.—(Hampshire Tek-
graph.).
G. CARROLL respectfully solicits the attention of
the Public to the near approach of the KING'S RIOTS".
DAY, when the Lottery will commence Drawing.—
It is with the greatest satisfaction that he observes
how amply the liberality and discernment of his
Friends have been rewarded, at his fortunate Offices,
within the last Four Months, in which time no less
titan Twelve Capital Prizes have been distriboted
amongst them, including Two Twenty Thousands!!
—Three of Twenty Thousand enrich the present
Scheme, which contains 107 Capitals; and as
Twenty Prizes of 21,000 each must be drawn in
the First Half Hour, those who intend to purchase
will show their judgment in doing so before the 4th of
JUNE) at 7; Cornbill) or 26, Ogord•street.
