St II one more, alld we have do.ie. Let its, with solemll awe, approach the grim figure of Earl Grey, the XN,'Iiig stiprtitit, of Whiggism, the beau ideal of independence, the chill snulime of immaculate purity. Then let 11s see the uncouthly patriotism of this per- sonage stooping to the common world after all, loading his connections with lucrative em- ployment, bringing from the obscurity to which they were destined by nature and insufficiency the whole tribe that called itself Grey by the remotest fragment of affinity; and with all his stern boast of political integrity, actually be- queathing twenty-four of his relatives and hangers ou to the burdens of his country.

If we were ever inclined to give the character of mob election in a single sentence, we should say that it has sent Mr v\ akley into Parlia- e defy the art of description to go further. Nlr Wakley's evidence on his Insur- ance Trial, is still fresh in our memories, and is still substantially on the records of our Criminal Jurisprudence, and it fully accounts at once for this Legislator's wrath against the Law, and his favour with the rabble. To this fellow a pu lie dinner was given a few days since: his conge- nial spirits in Finsbury filled the room, and his friend, Mr Joseph Hume took the Chair. That Mr Joseph would not lend Mr Wakley a shilling even with the promise of getting compound in- terest upon it, as in the instance of the patriotic Greek Loan, by which all the patriots made such handsome profits in the shape of 6tock we fully believe. That he would nol suffer him to sit down in any apartment of his house we also fully believe. Yet Patriotism of course reconciles all things, and we find this dullest of all men sounding his weary panegyric over the miry virtues of the Represeniative of luNsbuiy. 1 lie coniplmient vvas in due order repaid by a similar tribute from the pure lips of the Representative. Jn the course of his haran- gue the Wakley pronounced his idea of a Reformed House of Commons. The present Houe fell altogether below the great sublime of his fancy. Nothing would satisfy him but a «' House of 500 .Vakleys." We shall fell him, probably to his surprise, that for once we believe him, that nothing will satisfy him, or the party who use such tools, or the Miserables who sup- port them, or the barbarian-brute and vicious sediment of Society who surrounded him at that moment, but a House of 500 Wakleys." We shall further tell hiVl, that unless the Providence jf God, in compassion to people once religious, loyal and wise, shall interpose to avert the moin, we may see a House of Five Hundred Wakleys. That year by year the Representation of the Empire will pass into baser and baser hands, that Ignorance will more and more usurp the place of public wisdom, that the partizanship of tile lowest of mankind will extinguish the aecient respect for political honor, that brawl- ing insolence and vulvar revenge will be the qualities essential to public life, and that evil will crowd 011 evil II 11 til every thing is reformed but the profligacy of the Legislature, and the Constitution is buried in Civil War. We do not pronounce that these results will be the work of to-morrow or the next year. '.File ill- tegrity of a country like England is not to be broken down at once but the true mis hief ol the Reform Bill, ,and the mischievous measures of which it is the prolific parent, are that its pro- gress is inevitable, it is nut a casual exlerlJal injury. It has implanted a po.son in the heart, i'he poison may take time to be carried through the whole circulation-Lilt it will be carried, and that too within years which make but a small part of the life of a generation. !,Ill. ruin may be conclusive of the ,-¡rit sh Empire.

We are sick of Mr O'Connell and his affairs, and think it one of the calamities of the time that so worthless a person, and so worthless a cause should engross so much of the attention of Englishmen. But as it is the business of Par- liament, and Parliament seems inclined to have no other business, we must, in our capacity of Journalists, take some notice of this utterly contemptible affair. It is impossible for anv man of plain sense and common integrity to hesitate in pronouncing the sale of the seat for arlow, to be as base a job as the imagination of the most extravagant Reformer ever groaned over in the years of old Sarum. The words ol the ^ict against trafficking in seats are as ex- plicit as words can be. By the.Statute (Geo. ill. chap. 113.) it is declared "Chat if an,\ person, or persons shall thenceforth give, or cause to be given, any sum of money &c. or any contract to procure the return of any nerson to serve in Parliament, the giver, if not returned, shall forfeit t,ol eitry such gift, or pro- mise, alld if retllrned, shall be incapacitated from silting in that Parliament, and his election be ollles void." In thcc.se ol t|,e receiver of the money, it is declared that he snail forfeit to the Kill" tile still, received, with £ 500 besides, the t:500 [L) go to the prosecutor, with costs of suit." So stands the law. l'liere is no railing the seal off the bond" here. Mr O'Coii- nell's letters too are extant, for the sake of justice, and they are as unequivocal as the law could wish. His first note to Kaphael is— "Your having acceded to the terms proposed to you for the election of the county of Carlow, viz.: you are to pay before nomination jELOOO, aiid like sum after being returned. The first to be paid absolutely and entirely for being nominated/ I hereby garrantee and save you harmless from every other expense whatever, whether of agents, carriages, counsel, petition against tIle retllm, or of any otlter dtscnjJtion" in a further note expressly states that the money is to be paid "for Jus USe" eVldentlv to exclude all other applicants for a share of the sum so par- ticularly demanded, for an election winch he believed would be totally unexpensivt. His words being, "I doubt whether there will be more than the shew of a contest." The motion for an enquiry in this barefaced transaction has been brought forward by a Air iiardy, a well meaning man, but infinitely too much frightened Itelv too intic 1, by Ins ow n audacity to be if; for a work like this. What we want to see in Parliament is something of that fearless fortitude and honest straight- forwardness of our fort-fathers. Why, where the blood ol any honest man would curdle at public profligacy, have we nothing but courteous speeches and paltry affectations of candour. Why is not the public culprit in all itistittice, treated as a culprit. instead of beiug exalted into an object of sentimental decorum, by grave, silly disciples of Chesterfield. If O'olllltll is ima nlaie, let him prove his innocence. If he is guilty, 110 keellllt.ss uf invective, no lofty scorn of baseness, no language of indignant condem- nation that ever burned the lips of public virtue, can be too searching and searing for his de- nouncer to use. At last, however, after a variety of shifting and contrivances, the case is fo come before a Committee. Yet ev en there, the selection teaches us the animus of the Ministry. Of this Committee of eleven, six are Radical and but five are Conservative. But, let this Committee remember, that the eyes I of the itat-oti are fixed upon their proceedings. The Parliament, too, has its character at stake and its judgment on this occasion may be de- cisive of more than the fate of Mr O'Connell.

We trust our opinions are too ivell-kiiowri to make it a matter of surprise, that we should notice for once the observations of a C onteni- porary Journal, on the conduct of one of the ablest Magistrates of the Principality. We do not lIudertake to be the Champions of Mr Bruce; that Gentleman requires no Championship. He finds his best defence in the integrity, activity, and intelligence of his public services. But we stro igly protest against the unfair, the unge- nerous, the paltry principle on witch all oppo- sition is attempted to be ra sed !0 his reap- pointment.—The Journal in question (or rather the Merihyr Correspondent of that Journal*) admits that not the shadow of blame ean i e attached to the character of fr Brlwe as an individual, that bis official services have been all that they ollght to be. and tltat he hai every personal and public qualification for the office which he has held with such evident advantage to Merthyr. We should conceive that enquiry into the merits of a Magistrate must here find their natural conclusion. But, no-Liberalism knows nothing of being satisfied with the prac- tical proof (If fitness. in its liberalityit demands that all men should be of the same opinion with itself, and that a difference of opinion on any poin', however vague, vain, and unsettled, shall operate as a total disqualification for public services, of ever) kind, from the highest to the lowest. I lie sweeping vocabulary of Liberalism is, that it shall be an extinguisher on all merits, "from the King-to, the Constable."—We tell Mr Bruce, and all Magistrates like liiiii, tljat no matter what be their merits—no matter, how- ever" clear" they may be "in their great of- fice," however much they have contributed to the maintenance of public peace, and the sup- prcssion of private vice, they must expect to meet the bitterest hostility of Radicalism and Liberalism, and all such classes and denomina- tions of public basencss-i.. lIorallce and absur- dity; but they will have the best wishes of every Englishman whose wishes are worth having, and their cause must finally conquer- We are restrained by private feelings from saying more—but we shonld have been ashamed of the position we occupy as public writers had we said less.

Who is lie ? The Paris papers give no information, or even hope, of the formation of a new all appears to be in a stale of uncertainty, and the Journal des Debats states that it will remain so. An old adherent of the late Ministry thinks an Administration under M. Dupin, impossiole and one under the Duke de Broglie, as impro- bable-it represents Count Mole as having few chances, and the rumoured coalition between M. Thiers and the Tiers party, nol likely-ergo the interregum must be prolonged. Jveriures are said to have been made to Soult. Tite Chamber of Deputies WaS expected to meet on Wednesday. lMie proceedings, so far as relate to evidence, concerning Fieschi ended on Sunday. The .eersassendded to its to their judg- ment on the prisoners on Monday morning. No decision had been come to when the estafelte left, it is possible it may reach us in time for our latest intelligence. DEATH OF THE MOTHER OF BUONAPARTE.—Madame Marie Lretitia Buonaparte, tiie mother of Napoleon, dird at lioine, at one o'clock, on the morning of the 2nd inst. We regret that the of the death of the reigning Queen of Naples, is con- firmed. The Moniteur has a telegraphic despatch from the French Ambassador at Turin, announcing tiiat her Majesty expired on the 31st of January, at noon, of a bilious fever. Maria-Christina-Charlotte- Josepiiine-Gaetana-EHza of Savoy vvas tile daughter of the late King of Sardinia, V ietor Emmanuel. Her Majesty was born on the 4th November, IS 13, and married to his Sicilian Majesty in 1832. THE IONIAN ISLANDS.^—letters from Toulon, of the 9th, state that the English Government having resolved on levying a new tax on the people of the Ionian islands, and 110 longer committing the guard of the strong places to tiie. iiatioyial troops, the council- general had entered an energetic protest against that determination. The government was compelled to yield to the just complaints of that assembly, and the people had sent a deputation to London to con- gratulate the King 011 having relinquished those projects. N mv MAGISTK\TF.S—IN the House of Lords on Thursday night, Lord Whnrncliffe moved for a return of tiie names of gentlemen sent to the Home Office, as being fitted for the office of Magistrates by the Town Counci's under the Municipal Reform Act. Another example of that benevolent disposi- tion by which the Queen is so eminently distinguished has recently come to our knowledge, In the course of the last season her Majesty visited the Albion Bazaar, on the Grand Junction-road, and made some purchases of one of the stand-holders, an clderly female, lately deceased. About a month ago her Majesty again visited the Bazaar, with the intention of purchasing some more articles at the stall, but finding it occupied by a young person her Majesty made some inquiry about the former occupant. On learning tnnt she vvas somewhat reduced in circum- stances the Queen expressed her sorrow, and shortly afterwards til. was forwarded to the female in question, which included a donation of x io. from the Queen, jfi'lO. from the King, and other donations from the Princess Aug'usta, tiie Duchess of Gloucester, &c., amounting to the above sum. We understand that it was the dying request of the object of her Majesty's bounty that this generous act should be made known. Brig htoTl Gazette. Lord Brougham, whose health has been in- different of late, has, it is understood, virtually re- tired from public life. We have heard it stated that his Lordship's re-appearance in office is not contem- plated by Ministers, whatever may be the definitive arrangements respecting the office of Chancellor. These arrangements, it is believed, will probably be as follow:—Bickersteth (Lord Lan'gdale), Master of the Rolls, will introduce a Bill for separating the political from the judicial functions of the Lord Chancellor. Should this Bill be carried, Pepys (Lord Cottenhani) will be the Chancellor in Equity, Lord Denman Speaker of the House of Lords, and Sir John Campbell, elevated to the Peerage bv i.is Lady's title, Chief Justice of the King's Bench.—-Hull Advertiser. BIIIMINUHAM AND GLOUCESTER RAILWAY. We have now the satisfaction of announcing to our readers, that a most equitable and satisfactory arrangement has been made by the Birmingham and Gloucester Railway Committee, with the deputations from Worcester, in London, by which the inhabitants of Worcester will derive all the accommodation they desire, and the public will obtain additional advan- tages. We know from good authority that the arrangement has been approved by the Members for the city of Worcester, and by many of the Members connected u ith the County. A strange circumstance lately occurred at Breslaw. SoIne weeks o a iiuii, belonging to the Ursuline Convent in that city, died, and was as usual placed in the Church. \Vh[¡e the sisters were em- I isters w(,rt, eni- ployed in singing the usual vigils for her, she suddenly rose from her colhn, proceeded with tottering steps to the altar, and there falling on her knees began to pray in a loud voice. The nuns, dreadfully alarmed, ran and woke the abbess, who at first would not believe wnat t.iey told her, but Ltlast was persuaded to go to tiie ciiurch, where she saw the nun, who was praying, rise from her place before the altar and return to her coffin, where she lay down and closed her eyes. Tne abbess immediately sent for the physician,-but when be arrived the nun was really dead.—Dutch Paper.

(Slamo rganght'rc. LLANTRISSF.\T FAllt, FKB. ,13TH—The Can- dlemas fair at Llantrissent, on Saturday last, was encouraging to cattle breeders. Tlw "English dealers" have re-appeared among us, and the usual improvement in price has been the consequence. Three good Glamorgan Oxen, from Ty'n-y-Cymmar, fetched £ IS a-piece; and we saw too fat cows (from Llanharrau we believe) for which the owner refused £3() — ( £ 30 was asked for the best of them.) Store oxen, generally half-breed Hereford and Glamorgan, sold from £ S to £ 12 per head. Cows and calves, £ 6 10s. to Xf). The number of cattle was very much less than usual, which may account for the briskness of demand; for in some instances, the Welsh dealers bought cattle in the morning and sold them to the Gloucestershire dealers, in the afternoon, at a profit from 10s. to £ T per head. Fat sheep in great demand, at 6,1. per lb. A very poor show of horses, and no demand wllatever. Salt butter Is. per Ill, by the cask—sold principally by Llanwonno and Ystrad farmers to the Monmouthshire collieries. NEWBRIDGE FrB. 19.—We are rejoiced to say that matters are now actually in train for building a Ciiurch at this populous and very increasing place. Yesterday, tne incumbents of the adjoining parishes, the proprietors of the works, and some gentlemen interested in this most desired object, held their first meeting at the Bridgewater Arms, surveyed the best situations, and took other prelim- inary measures. It was announced that the Bishop of Llandatr had headed the subscription list with £ 50. Several gentlemen signified their intention of sub- scribing, and named many others who had voluntarily offered to contribute. The Rev. George Thomas, of Llandaff Court, was requested to undertake the office of Treasurer ? and Mr Irvine, of the chain-cable works, was appointed Secretary. The next meeting will be held early in March, of which due notice will be given in our paper. NEATH PETTY SESSIONS. [Before HENRY JOIl" GRANT (Mayor), THOIAS D. PLACE, FREDRICK FREDRICKS, and CHARLES WARDE, Esquires.] FEB. 12.-Williiiii Allen and William Rees were charged with stealing a quantity of copper from the Crown Copper Company Works. The Agent not being able to identify the copper, they were dis- charged. Jonathan Jones v. Rees Rees.—This was a com- plaint on the part of Jones against his master, for turning him off from his work, without giving him a months' notice, or a months' wages in lieu.-Case, adjourned until the expiration of the month. William Jenkins, tylcr, was fined 5s. including costs, (011 his own confession) for being drunk and disorderly. SHOCKING ACCIDENT.—On Monday last, the house- keeper of Mrs Williams, Duflryii, received a severe compound fracture of her leg in alighting from her mistresses' carriage, in front of the Castle Inn, Neath. No cause can be assigned for the accident, as the lady stepped on the pavement without falling. A medical man was immediately sent for, and every attention paid her by Mrs Fredricks, and likewise by the land- lady, Mrs Targett. A GHOST!—For some time back a young- woman, in an adjoiningparis. hasbeen much troubled by the visits of a former lover, who died during the Merthyr riots, and wiio desired her to meet him, at a place appointed, last week. The girl was (or pre- tended to be) so alarmed, that she took to her bed but got up to keep tne appointment, accompanied by her father and other friends. The ghost was true to his time, and carried her away over the mountain to Merthyr, from whence she returned home (a distance of about seven miles, there and back,) in a quarter of an hour. (Our readers, near Ctnybridge, will remem- her a similar act of violence committed on a young woman at St. Donat's, who, after being forced through the air, came back to her family, dripping wet.) It is melancholy to relate, and but ill agrees witu the much enlightenment of these days, that a great majority of the working people believe this absurd history UNLUCKY COLLI Eit.-A suspended order of removal to the parish of Llanddewi Aberarth, was made yes- terday on David Edwards, a collier of the Plymouth IVork-s, wlioic thigh has been broken by an accident in the works. This is the sixth time that this young man has had his leg fractured within a short period! R:OKKID BARBARITY.—On Monday night last, three carpenters went to the Bear beer house, at Dowiais, and had, while there, a dispute about their reckoning, or wages. One, whose name shall be at present withheld, because it will be tne subject of legal enquiry, went out before the other two, with his hatchet in his hand, and sdortly after, a spaniel belonging to Mr Hutchins, kept at the Bear, was found nearly cut in Iml f before the door! Steps arc taking to convict t'le perpetrator of this most atro- cious act ol cruelty. MERTII YR POLICE. (Before J. B. BRUCE a:i Vj\ THOMAS, Esqrs.) Feb. 16.

jjtoumoutfigfure* We understand that the amount of Subscrip- tions, in the Diocese of Llandaff, towards the dis- tressed Irish Clergy, amounts to XS.50, exclusive of the munificent gift of our benevolent Bishop. It is the only subscription purely Diocesan; an arrange ment vvnich was set on foot by the Chancellor of the Diocese, ever zealous in all good works. The List will prove that the sister counties of Monmouth and Glamorgan have run a glorious race of rivalry in this truly charitable undertaking. BISHOPRICS OF BRISTOL AND LLAXDAFF.—On dit. that the Ministers have abandoned certain parts of their plan of last year, for a new arrangement of the episcopal sees, and that it is tiieir present intention to suppress the Bishopries of Bristol and Llandaff, by turning over the Deanery of Bristol to the Diocese of Bath and Wells, and the see oflltiidaff to Gloucester. Who will say what thimble the pea will be under at the next shift ?-Brlstol J oumal. The town council of Bristol, on Friday se'n- night, elected the Duke of Beaufort Lord High Steward of that city, by a majority of 16 over Lord Segrave, the numbers being, for the Duke of Beau- fort, 31; Lord Segrave, 15, On Thursday was Launched, a fine Shipof 396 tons register, built by Messrs Batchelor & Co. It is understood she is intended for the China Trade. This ship is substantially built and is a fine model. It was the most beautiful launch we ever saw on this s de of the Channel, the morning being fine, a greater number of spectators were present than on any former similar occasion. Almost total silence prevailed. There was very little cheering when the vessel went off in consideration of the dangerous illness of Mr Batchelor, whose residence is nearly opposite the spot where tiie ship was built. The bottom of this vessel had been coppered while on the stocks. (From our Abergavenny Corrtpolldolt)- Patrick Cusack, of the Abergavenny Police, received information of a robbery committed at the King's Head Inn, Brecon, and in less than half an hour after apprehended the thief with the stolen goods in his possession, viz. two table and six tea spoons, tongs and cream jug of silver. Patrick is particularly active, and we should not be doing him justice were we to withhold from him that praise his conduct as a policeman really merits. (From our Chepstow Correspondent.) The lale 11 i-s Burr, whose death we announced in our last, widow of the late General Burr, was one of the most benevolent women to the poor of Chep- stow, that ever lived in the town: she not onlv "ave away X20 or XSO every Christmas in meat" ami a great quantity of bedding and clothing, but was con- tinually distributing alms to the poor in money, pro- visions, firing, clothing, and bedding. Her mother was of the same charitable disposition.-Thc funeral was on a most grand scale, about twenty carriages followed her, and all her tenants came from Herefordshire and this county to attend the remains of one of the best of landladys. If is thought by manv persons, that tiie rail- road will, at no very distant pesiod, be continued from Gloucester to Newport. The value of such a line is obvious enough. This neighbourhood has been for some time, and still continues to be, very much annoyed with mad dogs; not less than fifty have been killed within the last three months, and a vast quantity of Farm- ing Stock has been bitten by them, and several men, women, and children. In one instance, a poor child went to a neighbours upon an errand, and the dog belonging to the house (which unfortunately was allowed to go about unmuzzled, though the owners had observed it to be disordered for two or three days previously) bit the child in the leg upon the woman of tile house turning round to the child the dog bit her also upon which, the owner of the dog instantly killed it. We arc sadly pestered with dogs in this town and neighbourhood, on one-tenth part of which the dog duty is not charged. CO!W"En. INQUEST—An inquest was lately holden before B; M. Bradford, Esq. Coroner, on view of the body of John Price, a poor old man, who, while carry- ing a jug along the street, suddenly fell down and exp red." The jury returned a verdict accordingly. The deceased was a remarkably quiet and inoffensive man.

DESTRUCTION OF LORD NEWSOROUGH'S MANSION IN CARNARVONSHIRE. (Abridged from the Carnarvon Herald.) The town and neighbourhood of Carnarvon were thrown into considerable consternation on Wed- nesday night, between 9 and 10 o'clock, by the ar- rival of express messengers, stating that Glynnllivon, the noble mansion of Lord Newborough, situated about five miles from that town, was 011 fire. A number of the inhabitants hastened to the scene to render all the assistance in their power, and the fire- engine belonging to the borough was immediately sent off, under the guidance of experienced firemen. On arriving at the park, it was evident that the man- sion could not be saved the roof had fallen in, and the flames were bursting from every window. The lawn was covered with piles of costly furniture, pic- tures, pier-glasses, choice specimens of art, anti- quities, and books. The fire-engines were then di- rected to preserve the arched cellars, and in that they were successful. By an early hour in the morning the stately pile was completely gutted, and nothing left but the bare and blackened walls. It is stated that a smell of fire had been noticed during the whole day, and about 6 o'clock at night it was ascertained-to proceed from the flue of one of the chimnies. It then burst forth with such strength that all attempts to subdue it were unavailing. Lord Newborough was absent at the time with a shooting- party, at his residence at Bodfean, near Nevin; but Lady Newborough and her infant were at home, and they took refuge in a neighbouring cottage. There happened to be a tcligious assembly at a meeting-house situate not far from the hall, and on receiving tiie intelligence the parties composing it instantly hastened to render assistance; and, aided by the domestics, succeeded in rescuing a great portion of the furniture from every part except the top story, the whole of the furniture of which was consumed. Lord Newborough haviltg been sent for by express, arrived about I o'clock in the morning. Only one accident occurred, and that not of a very serious nature. Some men were sawing some ralters that connected the out blliiding-s with the mansion, when the part on which they rested gave way, and two men were precipitated several feet to the ground one was slightly injured, the other rather severely. Much of the property that was saved was of course greatly damaged, but we believe that only two or three valuable paintings arc consumed, and one box ol plate missing, which, however, is supposed to be in one of the arched cellars. The loss of Lord Newborough must be very con- siderably, but at present it is impossible to estimate it. At the time of the fire Lady Newborough waS in the nursery with the nursemaid, putting the child to bed; and the first incident which alarmed hot Lady- ship was the falling of the cciliug in the room above.

BIRMINGHAM & GLOUCESTER RAILWAY. It is a matter of congratulation for all the persons interested in the prosperitvofGloucestcr, that the active and vigorous exertions of those gentlemen who have had the direction of the preparatory measures necessary for introducing t!ie Bill into Parliament for the Bir- mingham and Gloucester Railwav, have been hitherto so eminently successful. The examination for the standing orders passed without a dissenting observa- tion, and the Solicitors proved their various points in the most satisfactory manner. It gives us great pleasure to communicate that the most friendly understanding exists between the Gloucester, and Birmingham, and Cheltenham, and Grand Western Union Company, under an arrangement at once equit- able and advantageous to both parties. The oppo- sition at Worcester which once threatened conflicting opinion, seems also in a fair way of compromise; and indeed it is evident that the inhabitants of Worcester at length perceive that no endeavours have been wanting to meet their wishes, as far as they were practicable. The interests as well as the inclination of our fellow citizens are clearly closely connected with the interests of Worcester, and insure a perma- nent understanding. Therefore so far as our imme- diate neighbourhood is concerned, there can be little doubt of all "pulling together;" and the informa- tion we derive from many sources, is confirmatory of the anxiety of all South Wales to effect the comple- tion of an undertaking which we mav safely prophesy will be one of the main arteries of the kingdom, bv uniting South Hales with the whole of the man- ufacturing districts in the north, as well as with the western counties of England and the Metropolis.

DISGRACEFUL OUTRAGE AND PIRACY IN THE BRISTOL CHANNEL. It is our painful duty, to record another dis- graceful outbreak and violation of the law, on the part of ignorant and misguided men, who conceive that the redress of imaginary wrong is best effected by the application of physical force. From the first adaptation of steam to the purposes of navigation, it has been anticipated that the time would arrive when steam-vessels would supersede tow-boats on navigable rivers. This would have been carried into effect on the Avon and Severn before now, but from the re- luctance of our merchants to injure the Pill boatmen, who have had much advice and many cautions given to prepare for the change which, instead of taking in kindness, they have uniformly met by threats and defiance. At length a small steamer was recently put on the trade, and found of great use. From the moment of her starting she has been an object of indignation and vengeance to the inhabitants of Pill, the male portion of which are principally employed in rowing towing-boats to and from the Severn and on Monday night a most outrageous attack was made by set of desperadoes on the said steamer and her crew, which will perhaps be best narrated by giving an abstract of what was deposed before the Magis- trates concealing for obvious reasons the names of the parties implicated Mr W. Leedham, part-proprietor of a steam-boat, called the Fury, said—On Monday last, (Sth inst) I proceeded down the river Avon in the said boat to endeavour to raise a vessel named the Comet, which had been sunk at the Holms. Previously to our leaving Cumberland-basin two men tried to prevent our taking a ship in tow, and one of them, a person of the name of told me that he hoped to have my heart for supper, and to see my head upon a pole parading about Pill. After proceeding down the river, as the wind was blowing strong, we anchored in Portishead bay, and in the evening a few minutes before ten o'clock, two boats, containing from 25 to 3J men, came alongside, and the men were quickly on board. I ran up the companion, when two of them seized me, one of whom was —.————, the same man who tnreatened to have my head, &c. Another man said, This is the owner, d—n the b-, let's throw him overboard and "drown him," or words to that effect; and then forced me to the bulwark, and succeeded in getting me over the rail, with intent to fling me into the water. I clung to the rail, and with great exertion got back again into the vessel; I was then seized by two other men, who again got me to the top of the rail, one of whom said, D—n him this is Whitwell, let's drown him." I again disen- gaged myself, and running to the ster& of the vessel dropt into the small boat. The remainder of my crew were successively forced into the boat. Whilst I was a-board I heard a pistol fired, but did not see by whom. After my people were in the boat we put off towards a schooner near, and when we were about 30 yards from our own vessel, a gun or pistol was discharged at us from her deck, and immediately after that a second and then a third. All the assailants were strangers to me except whom I had seen in the morning. Thomas Morgan, acting-master of the Fury, con- firmed the facts related by Mr Leedham, respecting proceeding down the river, anchoring at Portishead and being boarded about ten oVJock by about 20 or 30 men. On running up the companion one of the boarders named stepped up to him, and push- ing something at him which he (Morgan) thought a piecc-of wood, said "This is the bloody b-, whose head I want off." Morgan said Don't hurt me, and dropped his head, at that moment a pistol went off and the ball whizzed by his ear. Immediately after Morgan was seized by a young man, son of the person last mentioned, and others assisting, he was partially thrown over the side of the ship, but he succeeded in getting into the small boat. He also confirmed the fact of being fired at after leav- ing the vessel. Elias Burston and Samuel Cockings, also part of the crew, confirmed the above facts. The first, who is a boy, was 011 deck keeping watch when the boats approached, and detailed the circumstances of the boarding. There were two boats, one came on the leeward and the other on the windward side, and there were 15 men in one and 10 in the other boat; when he hailed them they told him they would chuck him overboard if he did not hold his d-d tongue. One of the assailants seized him and threw him into the fore-cabin, another afterwards threw him on the gangway, and a third ultimately threw him overboard, when he was caught by one of his crew, or his back would have been broken. He saw fire a pis- tol at the master. He and the last witness confirmed the firing at them after they left the vessels. The rioters took the vessel out to sea, at least as far as the Holms what they subsequently did can only be conjectured by the fact that the ship was seen yesterday drifting up the channel, and was ultimately taken possession of off Beachlcy, by Davis, a Glou- cester pilot, with the paddies torn off, the engines damaged, and other mischief rendered her: it is sup- posed that the rioters had not time to scuttle her as they were desirous of escaping, and it is reported that the most active have succeeded in getting over to Ireland. Seven or eight policemen were sent to Pill to arrest those against whom warrants have been granted, but It was not very probable that they would be able to find the delinquents—indeed all the inhabitants are in a state of great excitement, and the most opprobrious and insulting language was applied to the officers. Sufficient power however is in the neighbourhood to enforce obedience to the law, and to punish the offenders, if they can be discovered. That a very serious and heavy crime has been com- mitted-one that will place the lives of the delinquents in great jeopardy—cannot be doubted, and it becomes the poor deluded men to consider that perseverance in illegal proceedings will only expose themselves and families to inevitable ruin. The Society of Merchants held a Special Meeting to-day on the subject, and have since had a conference with the Magistrates. It is expected that a large reward will be offered for the apprehension of the riiig.leaders.-B,.t .stol Gaxettc.

A petition to the House of Commons from the Magistrates and inhabitants of Gloucester shire has received a great number of signatures, submitting that the administration of criminal Justice would be much improved if the trial of offenders of the lighter degrees of crime were transferred from the Assizes and Quarter Sessions to the jurisdiction of Magistrates in their local districts. The petitioners state that during the year 1835, out of 372 convicts for Giouces- terslii i-c at the Quarter Sessions, 104 were sentenced to imprisonment for three months, or less, with or without labour, or solitary confinement, or whipping; of these 55 were for two months or less. Twenty of the former, and ten of the latter, were under seven- teen years of age. RKFOUM MAGISTRATES- The Leeds Intelli- gencer, in a long article, says that the list of magis- trates nominated by the new corporation of that borough was sent up to Lord John Russell: he was so surprised at seeing none of the names (with two or three exceptions) that he had been accustomed to, as those of the leading and influential men of the town, that he felt obliged to interfere. He wrote to the mayor, to desire a particular statement of the professions or trades of the parties recommended, their position in society, and their standing" in the borough. What will be thought of the judgment of the men who, in their wild admiration of the intelligence and discre- tion of the new Town Councils, were anxious to make over to them a portion of the prerogatives of the Crown? What of the consistency of Lord Jo"' Russell, in declaring at one time that the revision o the corporate nominations should, as larasdcpen 1 on him, become a dead letter, and then taking an early opportunity of objecting to their choice 1 And what will be said of the "Reform" that has given power to a class of persons who have exercised it in such a manner as to call forth the. reluctant censure oveii of our revolutionary ministers,

LORD JOHN RUS,ELL'S DISSENTERS' MARRIAGE BILL. Lord John Russell explained on Friday se nnight two of the great measures by which he proposes to satisfy the Dissenters-the first being a scheme for the general registration of births? marriages, and deaths—the second, a new law for the celebra- tioh of the marriage ceremony. We proceed to give a brief analysis of both measures. Tha machinery for both is to be supplied by the Poor Law Commissioners, and to consist when- ever this may be practicable, of officers' acting under their authority as such. The Registration Bill provides that the relieving officer, under the Poor Law Bill, shall be the regis- trar of the district to which his present duties ex- tend. The occupier of every house is to be bound under a penalty, to send notice to this officer of the occurrence of each birth or death in his house. There is to be a central office in London, to which returns are to be made from each district at inter- vals of two months. The office is to be under the management of a chief registrar, who is to be ap- pointed by the Poor Law Commissioners for five years, and to act under their superintendence. The present parochial register are to remain open for such as choose to resort to them, in addition to the general register. It seems probable, unless informers are to be set actively to xvorkto pry into what is passing in every man's dwelling, and to enforce the penalties against negligent or contumacious housekeepers, that the general register will be exceedingly select, and that the parochial register will be much the more general of the-two The Marriage Bill of the Noble Lord seems to have obtained, on its first introduction, more gene- ral approbation in the House of Commons than we think it could honestly claim, for we must say that it seems to us, although high authorities have given it some degree of sanction, to be a very funny affair. The check upon clandestine or unlawful marriages, in lieu of the publication of banns, is to be an open register, to be kept by the relieving officer em- ployed under the Poor Law Commissioners, in each district. All persons intending to become bride- grooms or bride (for both parties are to attend) are to have the felicity of introducing themselves to this grave and respectable individual three weeks before they propose to enter into the holy state (if they go to the expense of a license, eight days beforehand will do) in order to have their names entered on his book But they must not think to impose upon this functionary by pretending to be other persons than they really are, for they are to find among their friends (however difficult this may be) some one or other who has had the previous pleasure of his acquaintance to vouch for their identity, ^o far is clear enough. The names of all the matrimonially disposed persons in the district will by this process, get regularly and correctly put down in the relieving officer's book, to be kept in his office, on the same shelf probably, with the list of parish paupers, to some of whom the candidates for connubial bliss will, in all likelihood, have the good fortune to be introduced in the lobbies and passages, if not in the very sanctum, of this bureau for the dispatch of miscellaneous affairs. The book, as we have said, is to be accessible to all the world, and this is the publicity by which forward boys and girls, of sixteen or eighteen years of age, are to be prevented from eluding the vigilance of their parents and guardians. We fear itwill scarcely do. The book, we apprehend, will not be read by a sufficient number of persons, especially in the more populous and busy parishes and districts, to afford the probability that the intentions it proclaims will generally reach the ears ofthe unsuspecting parents and guardians who are interested in frustrating them. ° When the prescribed time has elapsed the registrar and relieving officer is to give a certiti- cate, to that effect, to the parties, who are forth- with to repair to the Clergyman of the parish, or to any Dissenting Minister, or to any Roman Catholic Priest in the parish, at their option, for the completion of the work unless in the case of those persons of tender conscience who object to any religious ceremony whatever on such an occa- sion, for whose accommodation it is provided that a superintending registrar shall execute the hole affair by taking their declaration that they are thenceforth man and wife, which simple declara- tion is to be completely valid. There is a limita- tion to the privilege of Dissenting Ministers ai d Roman Catholic Priests to celebrate the rite. The privilege is to be enjoyed only bv those who have licensed meeting-houses or chapels, and to the acquisition of the license, it is necessary that twenty householders shall certify that the meeting- house or chapel has been open for the Dtirpose of religious worship for one whole vear. This latter regulation shows how well the scheme has been considered. In the thinly inhabited districts of the country where there is coinparativelj little danger of clandestine or irregular marriages, it will be very difficult to obtain a license for the celebration of the ceremony in dissenting chapels; while in populous towns, where the danger of sucÍl unions is by far the greatest, every description of chapel will obtain its license with the utmost facility. IVe had almost forgotten to mention that the Bill, in its partiality for the Dissenting body (Lord John was always a great friend of the Dis- shan't;1 Te PirOVido that their marriages shall be graced and honoured above those of Church going people by the presence of no less important and dignified a person than the UistraJ and relieving officer himself. This is a flatted and delicate compliment paid to the Dis-entin" body by their friend Lord John, which they wUl all, and particularly the female portion of "them know how to appreciate. It will, we conclude, be universally admitted now that Lord John Russell is the most circum- spect and profound Legislator that ever exercised his acute and comprehensive nrnd, for the happi- ness and welfare of any portion of the human race. —Morning Post.

We have not been able to ascertain whether the unfortunate men were using the nail or the safety fuse, but in ei'her case, where the train tails, the peril in pick- ing out a hole is much the same; perhaps the danger would be le-sened if the hole were partially filled with water while being picked out, when it is in such a position as to render it practicable the object of preserving the charge is far too con- temptible to be set against the risk of life. it is possible that an explosion might take place even when watered; but we apprehend that the risk would be materially lessened.-Cornwall Gazette.
