defence of Catalonia, notwithstanding the liberation of
Illrerdinand; and so:,e advantages are attributed him ;
,while it is also immured that Llobera has taken tie
'rtfnyalist leader, Barton IN:roles, prisoner. The fact oess
!nevolt in the army of hallasteros is matter of great pro-
bability ; and one inference at least may be drawn from
Illte circumstances, that the captnre of Cadiz will not en..
isble the French materially to reinforce their troops in
ether quarters; it being necessary to guard against futore
ebullitions of public spirit.. The Duke d'Angouleme
shewed great caution, in not even entering Cadiz; but
a strong French garrison is pieced there; and there is
some talk of their holding, it as long, as we continue to
hold tiibraltax.Algesiras,too.is to receive a French garrison.

A Morning Piper. •bas made the important discovery,
that a transfer of landed property does not destroy the
property ; and that it is immaterial to the tenant who is
his landlord, provided his treatineot is the. same. This is
used as an.argument against Mr. cobbetra principles
about the transfer of property ; but ilsowriter begets that.

• TITHES.—COUNTY OF CORK.
At a General Meeting of the ,parishioners of the tittle
lelamt, held on the ljthoof October, to take IMO consider.
;dies the peovisions of the 'Tithe Comniuttelosilllll, yen
"lone to tits Vestry to .be held in that pariuh'tM nth WA
ind ward Wallis Hoare. Esq. in lb, chair.
It was resolved, that this parish do decline to appoint
any Commissioners model. the mime Bill. • and. for .• the
ifollowing reasons:— •
Firat—Thet the Prices of Agricultural produce during the
'eves years selected by the Bill, as those which are to form the
basis of the Composition of Tithe, are considerably above those
which may be reasonably anticinated N the, prices of future
periods of equal dneallon, and therefore not to be deemed as
forming an egaltable basis of arc rage dt all.
Secondly—That *Composition founded out merely upoothe
actual receipts of money by the Clergyman. but also upon all
such sews, which may have been " either agreed upon or ad-
jeepdto he paid." is altogether unreasonable, when the Or-
ganelle/les are considered under which the liability to such
hashers heretofore generally treated in Ireland, and opera'
which it is unlit cessary to comment. •
Thirdly--That the increased security given to the
tlergytuan for his income under this Dill, together with
the diminished trouble and expense. which be would have
to encounter in its collection, seems in equity to demand
rather a diminution of the burthsn of Tithe than an in-
crease such ac we conceive would resultfrom the causes al-
ready stated. . • ,
Resolved—Thot we lament that the above objections to
this Bill are by *Chnise in itself precluded from receiving
may mitigation at the. beads of the Qommissioners to be
named in it, such Clause positively prohibiting the exercise
of any discretion whatever us their part.
Resolved—That although we object as above to the machi-
nery and detail. of this HUI. we highly approve of its princi-
ple. Lad have only to regret thg.that principle should not haie
been carried into effect is a hiss objectionable form, and one
more conducive to the peace and satisfaction of the country.
Resolved—That while we feel It a public duty to• declare
these our sentiments on this measure, we are ready to admit
that since the dapressioirof the times, the Rector of this Parish
has wade a liberal. sad fair redaction In his demand for Tithe,
and that we .the Individuals of this Parish have no reason
whatever to Complain-
EDWARD WALLIS H. tax, Chairman.

On Wediesday forenoon while a man was fishing in the
dam of the mill of cart, is the parish of Killiarchan, he
discovered the naked body of a girl apparently from 9 to
11 yelps of age. The body was speedily taken out of the
river, and curled into a house in the neighbourhood. The
.circumstance was seen known, 'embers came to examine
the deceased, and at last it was .discovered that a girl of
the same size bad bees semi with a woman who had re.
cently visited Johnston with " punch's opera" or some such
low exhibition. The body was afterwards examined by a
surgeon at the instance of the Fiscal, and as several
warra woundnts
were discovered in various partsthe head, a
was granted against the show woman. After the necessary
eoqeiries, she was traced to the parish of Neilstnn, where
she and a male companion was apprehended on Saturday,
for the purpose of examination.

—This act also provides that the criminal 'male prisoners

adosived that York Castle does not at present allow of this

general meeting of the Magistrates of the three Ridings.l
that a plan now laid before the Committee for improving,
and enlarging the County Gaol at York shall he acceded

act for purchasing Mr. Wand's premises, adjoining to the
Castle Yard, at the principal entrance, and including the
site of Clifford's Tower, built by the Conqueror, and
originally used as a keep to the castle.
We understand that the expense of execnting the pro-
posed plan is estimated at from 50 to 60,0001., and' hat it
will require a levy of about 4.1. in the pound throughout

On the morning of Saturday se'nnight, at half-past five
o'clock, a most tremendous gale of wind, which app trendy
originated from the south-west, prevailed at Hastings,
and from its violence blew down a chimney belonging to
Mrs. 'Putt's house, situated in East-street; it fell on the
roof of the opposite dwelling, which it completely destroyed
—the bricks and tiles struck the bed where a fern tie sae
reposing, broke the bedstead, and forced the whole through
the floor into the kitchen. Neither the woman nor her
son who was sleepilyg in the same apartment, at one end of
the room, received any injury. There were likewise,
several disasters at sea. a ship of 300 tons would have
bees o o shore soon after seven had not the wind luckily
veered a little to the westward. A Hatch Hoy passed the
town, ten miles off, with the loss of a bowsprit—and a
schooner, lost half her bowsprit and her forectsa,:—a twig,
with her ballast shift d, anchored to the westward, at the
distance of a mile from Bopeep ; at five in the evening, site
got under weigh, and steered for the Ness Point, for
shelter. Daring the night all the lamps in the town were
extinguished except two, and these were burning in a very
feeble manner.
On Saturday we experienced a heavy gale of wild from
the E. S E. accompanied with rain : several ships lying in
these Roads were compelled to run for Hull for shelter,
and others received damage. A fishing boat, belonging
to Southwold, riding in the Weld. had eight men swept off
her deck by one sea, and all unfortunately perished; they
were all married, and have left 32 children to bewail
their loss, and all of tender years,
