The young, in whose hearts a' mistress held the first place, drank deeply in honour of their;! beloved, sometime equalling the number of cups to that ofl the letters forming her name—which, if the custom prevailed;, so early would account forJEgisthas's being a sot. Some- j times, however, taking the hint from the number- of the •Graces, they were satisfied with three goblets but, when an excuse for drinking bottle deep" was sought, they chose the,Muses for their patrons, and honoured their mis- tress's names with three times three.

H. Lawrence, stated that the loss which the company had sustained by the recent con- flagrations in the town had been confined almost entirely to ,the mercantle districts of Liverpool. The company was in a very excellent position, and, he trusted, with the experi- ence they had gained, they would continue to go on flourisfy-' ingl^r. They had been driven to a painful experience like all ph companies that the mercantile premiums formerly- charged were totally inadequate to protect them from the risk which they ran, and, though they regretted to place the commerce of the port under additional burdens, they had been compelled in their own protection to increase the pre- miums upon insurance. The repprt showed that the lops during the year had been £ 46,528, leaving a reserved fund of £ ?2T7i481, after discharging all liabilities. A dividend pf pqr cent. onjthe paidtup capital was recommended, BRITANNIA LIFE ASSURANCE COMPAN Y No. 1. PRINCE'S STREET", BAN-K, LONDON. Empowered by. Special Att, of Parliament I Y.

This Institution is empowered by aSpecial Act of Parliament, and is so constituted as to afford the benefits of Lite Assurance in their fullest extent to Polity-Holders, and to present g'fentei facilities and accommodation than are usually offered by other Companies. The decided superiority of its plan, and its claim to public preference and support, have been pi-oved incontestably, by its extraordinary and unprecedented success. Assurances may either be effected by Parties on4heir own Lives, or by Parties interested therein on the Lrtet of »t%eri The effect of an Assurance on a persen/s own life is to create at once a Property in Reversion, which can by to other weans be realised. Take. forinstance, the case of a person at the age of Thirty, who by the payment of 51. 8.4-d. to the Britannia Life Assurance Company, can become at once possess, d of a beqiieathable property, amounting to I000i.,< subject only to the condition of bis continuing the same payment-quarterly during the remainder of his life,-a condition which may be fulfilled by the mere saving of EIGHT SHILLINGS weekly in his expenditure Thus, by the exertion oJ a very slight degree of economy-guth indeed, as can scarcely be felt as an inconvenience-, he may at once realize a capital of 10001., which be can bequeath or dis- pose of in any way he may think proper.

CHURCH RATES.
CHURCH RATES. Unlawfulness of obstructing the making of a Rate, and refusing to join in making a "sufficient" Rate for the itecessary" Repairs of the Church. To the Editor qf the Advertiser and Guardian.. SIB,—As the period is now drawing near when the neces- ovy reparations of our sacred edifices will take place, and when it is especially important that the duties of the ir~should be zealously and conscientiously. flfllffllea, it may bexjf use Again and again to repeal .through your valuable columns, the legal obligations in this matter, and to call the public notice to a recent decision pronbunced on the 8th iwtant, by Sir Herbert Jenner Fust, in a cause of office of the Judge, promoted by STEWARD V. FRANCIS. The charge set up in the citation was, "tha Mr. Francis had unlawfully and illegally obstructed or refused the making of a sufficient Kate for the necessary repairs of the Church." Now, was this, or was it not," eaid Sir Herbert, "an Ecclesiastical oflfence ? On this point the Court had no U doubt. The question had been decided by C. J. Tindal, in the Braintree Case.' He had there laid it down most distinctly, that every Parishioner was forced to assist in "passing a Rate for the necessary Repairs of the Church. It was stated in the citation that the Repairs were neces- sary and if that fact were so, and the party cited had obstructed the making of a Rate, he was liable to Ecclesi- nstical. censure," Mr. Francis's protest was accordingly overruled. It may^ tiflped that the Parishes in our Diocese, happily they are v few, who have hitherto, unconscious possibly of acting td-deflance of the Law, raised their voices against a Rate for necessary Repairs of the Church, or other re- quisites legallyjghargeable on the Rate, will take warning by this judgment, and not be wilfully offenders against the Institutions of the country. If any individual is opposed to the ancient, and, as I am persuaded, just and adpiirabte system of our National pro- vision for public worship, he is at perfect liberty to petition Parliament for a change of the Law: but no man is at liberty to act in direct opposition to the Law; and if he does so act, he is justly liable to punishment, and must be content with the appellation of a lawless character. The judgment of C. J. Tindal, as referred to by the Dean of the Arches, contains the following remarks:- We are all of opinion, that the obligation by which the Parishioners are bound to Repair the body of the Parish Church, whenever necessary, and to provide all things essential for the performance of Divine Service therein, is <1.11 uuugauon imposed on them by the COMMON LAW of U the land. When the fabric of the Church stands in need of Repair, THE ONLY QUESTION, upon which the Parish- U ioneis, when convened together, to make a Rate, can by Law deliberate and determine, is, not whether they will Repair the Church or not (for on that point they are con- U eluded by the Law), but how and in what manner the U Common Law obligation so .obliging them, may be best and most effectually performed and carried into effect. The Parishioners have no more power to throw off the "burden of the Repair of the Church, than that of the Repair of Bridges and Highways." Let me also call the attention of your Readers to the fol- lowing passage in Watson's Complete Incumbent,' p. 396. "as to Repairing the body of the Church, the Spiritual "Court may compel the Parishioners to do it." I would, likewise, refer to the Report of the Ecclesiastical Conunissionera made to jiis Majesty in 1831, 1832, signed by several of our highest authorities in Church and State. « the Churchwardens to take „ care th^t the body of the Church is duly Repaired, and aU- things necessary for the decent performance of Divine Service provided, and the Law imposes on the Parishioners the burden of raising by Church-Rate the funds required to defray the expense. To this extent ALL AUTHORITIES concur. It will be of advantage, moreover, to bear in mind, that our own Chancellor laid down in his Charge of 1841, re- specting adjournments. His words have been quoted with approbation in the « British Magazine,' and in several public journals. In respect to Adjournment, with a view to postpone or evade the question, we have the authority of the Attorney- General (now Lord Campbell), for declaring it to be a shallow device. ° If, therefore, at a Vestry Meeting, convened for the ..n1?8- a part7 Pr0P0ReB an Adjournment, let the Chairman at once, without fear or hesitation, refuse to i. «e iye8tl0°'.as wholly inconsistent with the objects of the Meetmg, which, as declared by all the Judges, is, not to deliberate whether they will repair the Church or not (for on that point they are Concluded bv thp Lnv) hut n h u 'f Aw rT€T the Common Law obligation •hall be best fulfilled. At Headsworth a motion was made for it Rate, which was met by an amendment to adjourn the Chairman refused to put the Amendment, and insisted U on the votes being taken for or against the Rate. «•i!1^ "?h* rh"let Lt>rd AbinSer) being asked, Chalr™an dk* right V answered Yes, that C the Meeting was for a specific purpose, which the ad- journment was intended to frustrate.' On being asked again, « whether the Chairman was bound to allow any motion to have precedence of the motion for a Rate V « he answered No, if the notice was for a Rate only.' H On the adjournment being refused, the question as to U granting the Rate must be decided and the Majority, II and of course every individual composing that Majority U refusing to Vote for the Rate, or obstructing its being made, is cleirlyg-uilty of violating the Law, not merely the U Law Ecclesiastical, but the Common Law of the land." So far our Chancellor. Heartily recommending the foregoing remarks to the im- partial consideration of the Church-Rite opponents in this Diocese, who I again repeat, are happily but few, and being, moreover, persuaded that even these few will no longer be adverse to the Law when they have clearly ascertained that it is Law I remain, Mr. Editor, Your obedient Servant, NOMOPH1LUS. .##1'" THR TABLES TIJRKED.—A few days since an old pen- sioer, named James Arundel, confessed to Shrimpton, the constable at Upton, and Mr. Thomas Liddsard, a builder at Slough, that he had murdered a man twelve months ago, named Thomas Brown, at Henley, and had buried him in a field in that neighbourhood, and that the horrid deed he had committed so preyed upon his mind that he wished to deliver himself up to justice." The constable, as a matter of course, took the man into custody, and brought him before the,Eton'bench of magistrates and the man then persisting in the same tale, he was sent to Henley in the care of the police, in order that the case should there be investigated by the magistrates of the borough. When taken before the mayor, the fellow retracted all that he bad said on the sub- ject of the "horrid deed;" and as no murder had been committed at Henley, he expected he should be, as a matter of course, set at liberty. It, however, appeared that wheti this man went to London, periodically, to receive his pension, he generally managed to melt the whole of his money, either before he left London, or on his road to Henley, where he lived; and that he was then in the habit of trumping up some tale about a robbery or a murder he had committed, in order to get himself apprehended, taken before a magistrate, and conveyed back to Henley for noth- ing. In this case, however, although he had got his ride into Oxfordshire for nothing, he was taken back again to Eton upon the same liberal terms, and there taken before the magistrates, charged with an act of vagrancy (which would have been looked over had it not been for his subse quent little attempt at deception), having been found begging at the time he made the horrid disclosure" to the constable and Mr. Liddiard. He was, consequently, com- mitted to Aylesbury Gaol for fourteen days' exercise upon the treadwheel, as a rogue and vagabond. Thus, instead of having held only one, he has been favoured with three gra- tuitous rides; but whether, when he leaves the county prison, he will get up" another "horrid murder" for the sake of a ride back to Henley, is somewhat problematical. PERFORMANCE OF THE BLIND.-Lately there was given, in the church of St. Roch, in Paris, a musical performance attended by remarkable circumstances. It was that of a mass, the composition of M. Gautheir, a man who was born blind, and executed entirely by artists who were blind, all of them having been musically educated, under the profes- sorship of the above blind composer, at the Parisian Royal Institution. We have heard that her Majesty has been pleased to grant the Marchioness Wellesley apartments in Hampton-court Palace as a mark of Royal favour. Her ladyship's health has much improved, and it is expected she will resume her duties as one of the Ladies of the Bedchamber of her Mil- Itsty the Queen.-Sun. ,0LMDICTRODS AcciDENr-_On Monday night, the 13th inst., as Mr. Lupton, Mr. Fawcett, and Mr. Jackson, faimere, were pressing the river Wharve, near Burley, in a gig cart, the wheels of. the vehicle eame with a sudden jerk against a large stone in the middle of the stream, and, the harness breaking from the shafts, the horse went on, and left the riders to contemplate the dazzling brilliancy of the frosty HTPrTlV t overhanging woods, and the deep sullen er rolling beneath them, in very poetical leisure. Mr. Lupton, at length, seeing no other alternative, plunged up to his waist in the water, procured fresh harness, and relieved his companions from their very romantic situation. —Leeds Paper. 1 < DISTRESSING CASE OF LUNACY On Sunday Iå4 a young woman, apparently about 30 years of age, was ob- served stripping herself in a field at Stamford-bridge, and shortly after she ran down to the river side and threw herself into the water. Some persons who were near the spot at the time immediately rendered their assistance, and rescued her from impending death by taking her out of the water. Clothing was immediately provided for the unfortunate crea- ture, and other acts of kindness shown to her. Th,. "&£. stable of the parish took her to York, and on Monday last she was brought up for examination at the Castle, before Far«t T?'^ g and Mr* George Lloyd, jun., two of the East Riding magistrates. The magistrates sent for Mr George Brown, surgeon, who, after a thorough examination, pronounced the female to be in an unsound state of mind It appeared from her statement that her name was Mary Bourne, that she was of Irish extraction, and that she had been travelling with caps for sale, but that she had given most of them away. At times she talked very incoherently, i ?7aS '1° yCLars °ld- She said that 8he thought at herclothes smelt' of brimstone, and she threw them off in case she should be burnt. Mr. Brown gave her a certificate of lunacy, and she has been conveyed to Gate Helmsley Lunatic Aaylum. Yorklhire Gazette VILLAGE SCHOOL CHILDREN. During more than a seven weeks toar, embracing a considerable extent of countiv, and just ended, we visited several village schools, and were mTc'h pleased to find the good old System of teaching th^Eboys and girls to knit, growing into fashion again. O.ZL however into the subject, we found that there existed gene- rally m the villages much difficulty in supplying the children with as much as they could do, owing to the difficulty of selling the stockings and other articles then made No v it struck us and we mentioned it more than once, that a de- pository of some kind might be established in London for the sale of the produce of these village schools. A large number of charitable people both in London and in the C°Un?F', knowing that articles thus produced could be had, would gladly purchase them in preference to articles other- wise produced. And as the disposal of th* L i e.v'-&a \I\I;lU ut. through the medium of the clergymen of the parish, it would add much to his influence, and to the strength of the Church if he were able to supply a number of children with work' whereby they would earn a trifle, which in these timesTand •especially m the agricultural districts, would be most acceptable to their Paints. Not stockings only, but a variety of useful articles might be made by the children, and sold for their advantage, fixing on the article, in addition to the cost of the material, a moderate sum to pay for the time and. labour requ^ed m producing it We repeat that we have no doult that a large quantity of such goods would be readily and cheerfuliy purchased by charitable and pious members of the i? th Church, tey knew where they could meet with them, and could thus assist in promoting so charitable a work. iVe made these remarks for the consideration of our readers, and shall be glad to hear what they have to say upon the subject and also awist, as far as we can, in carrying »uch a Droiect A natt, F S A from Mr. Hewett, of Compton, detailing the account of tha opening of three tUmuli on the Downs! near East Ilsley, Berks. Eight human skeletons were ex- burned, of gigantic proportions, two of wfrich measured respectively six feet four inches, and six feet two inches. An iron javelin-head was firmly transfixed in the hip bone of one of the skeletons, and nearly the whole of the skulls were fractured, thus indicating that these individuals fell in some fierce encounter on this spot of the Downs. Unbaked not teij, warlike weapons rude articles of military equipments" and the remains of inferior animals, were also in the graves and the teeth (which were exceedingly perfect) of the human skeletons presented the characteristic appearances of the SrT, v«ntT' ;tl88UPP°8*d that these remains belonged to different epochs, some anterior, and others sub sequent, to the Christian era, and that the individuals flou- rished during the century that elapsed between the arrival of J ulias Cæsar and the final subjugation of South Britain about the year 79. BILLETING SoLDiERS.-It is, we understand, in contem- plation by the Master-General of the Ordnance, in concur rence with the Secretary at War, to hire temporary barracks m those parts of England in which the presence of troops may be necessary, and where there are at present no ner manent barracks, in order to obviate, as much as possible, the inconvenience and expense of quartering officers and' men in public-houses. This arrangement will avert the evils which so continually arise from throwing the private [soldier into the society of the class of civiUans who are usually to be met with in such resorts. There is scarcely an instance of any collision between the military and the people which has not been commenced or aggravated in a public-house. It is, moreover, notorious, that in every instance in which the soldier does not expend the whole of his pay for the benefit of the landlord.^ is regarded and treated as an unwelcome visitor., Reforms like these afford the best possible evidence of the anxiety of the authorities to promote the personal comfort and welfare of the humhW grades of the army—United Service Gazette. De.AT" °J L°RD ABJRCRC\MBY—We regret to announce the death of this amiable and venerable nobleman which took place at Airthrey Castle. His Lordship, who was in his 74th year, bad been for a long time in a very infirm state of hea th. He was, eldest son of the celebrated General Sir Ralph Abercromby, and brother of Lord Dunfermline-i Lord Abercromby has left one son, Colonel Abercromby, Lord-Lieutenant of Clackmannanshire, and late M P for the county of Stirling; and two daughters, the eldest of whom is married to the Right Hon. Fox Maule. By Lord Abercromby's death the Lord-Lieutenancy of Stirlingshire becomes vacant.- Cakdonian Mercury. REPEAL OF THE WOOL DUTY A memorial to Her Majesty s Government, praying for a repeal of the duty on foreign wool, and strongly exhibiting the mischievous opera- tion of the duty on the woolen manufacture of the country, is now in course of signature by the manufacturers and merchants of this town. A smilar memorial is in course of being signed at Huddersfield and we believe the trading interests of Bradford, Halifax, aud Dewsbury, are likely to take the same steps.-Leeds -Mercury. THE LATE OUTBREAKS.-N otice has been entered upon the books of the House of Commons by Mr. T. Duncombel that he intends, on Thursday, the 2d of next month, to move the appointment of a select committee, to inquire into the manner in which justice was administered by a portion of the magistracy during the disturbances that took place last year in the manufacturing districts, and to report their opinion to the House thereon. RURAL POLICE. The good people of Staffordshire have found the day of reckoning come round very quickly, and are already crying out under the smart of their quarter's rates. In the precept for Harborne (a village in that county, bordering on Birmingham), the following sums are required to be furnished for the present quarter :-County- rate, X78 8s 3d. police-rate, f58 16s. 2M.; Mining police-rate, £58 16s. 2d.; making a police demand for the quarter of £ 117 12s. 4id., being at the rate of f470 9s. 6d. per annum. Nobody in the parish knows of any single mine therein, and for this sum of JE470 9s. 6d. they are allowed two constables! THE TEMPLE OF SOMNAUTH—A writer in the Times says, "It may be interesting to your readers to know that the famous Temple (Pagoda) of Somnauth has not escaped the broadsides of an English man of war. In 1805 His Ma- jesty's frigate Fox, Captain W. H. Dobbie, (of which ahip I was acting first lieutenant,) was sent by Governor Duncan, of Bombay, with a bomb and several other armed craft of the Bombay marine, to bring the natives of that neighbourr hood to their senses for acts of piracy towards the vessels trading from the Indus to Bombay. We 'shotted and shel- led' the old pagoda for several days together, but without doing any injury however they handed over the rupees at last, and we left off bombarding it. Messrs. Shank and Inglis (East India Directors, I believe, now) were on board the Fox, with the grenadier company of Sepoys which they commanded, having Volunteered (although civilians) witil their men to embark as marines when we put to sea after R I French frigate. I only wish we had come up with thi Frenchman, who was taken by another ship, and then 1 should not be what I am. I EFFECTS OF FROST.

Among the numerous interesting relics, the property of the late Rev.

Bristol, July 25th, 1761." It is now in the possession of Mr. S. Isaacs, Counterslip. The law officers of the crown have given an opinion that magistrates at petty sessions have not the power to commit for contempt parties misconducting themselves in court. The remedy is, to have information sworn on the spot against the party, who will afterwards be prosecuted by the crown at the quarter sessions or assizes. T?E i ^KEREI: FISHERY.—Two of the Brighton m ??e night la8t week *^4 of 30,000 fish, which .they sold at 14s. per hundred, thus mak- ing the night's labour about LIIO each. DREADFUL LOSSES^ AT SEA—During the last few days nl T °?eV,lral °th" uVefsels having been totally lost ( addition to those which have been reported) in the course of the late awful gales, have been received by the agents of the insurance companies in the citv. Am one- the principal are the following :-On the evening of Friday, the Rover steamer, while on her passage from Glasgow to Sligo, saw a brig with her sails shivered to ribands, apparently deeply laden, go down within a few miles of Maline Head, and all on board perished with her. MI VTJ U within A short distance from the lli-raled shin, the hnm^flna «_i „rf n-- .u._v.a. men Diowinr with a tremendous sea, prevented a boat being launched to render assistance to the unfortunate sufferers, many of whom were to be seen swimming towards the Rover, but they soon be- came exhausted, and saak. to rise no more. The vessel has been since ascertained to be the Salus, of Greenock, having a cargo of coals and hardware. Besides the crew, who consisted of eight persons, there were four passengers on board. There is no doubt that they were all drowned. The vessel, loss, and cargo, are estimated at JE900. On the same evening another vessel, called the Betsey, of Lynn, a sch10°frJ'Yas total]y wrecked on the rocks between Mable and Sheddleton, with the whole of the crew and the master, eTi' r ge' The .catastr°phe took place during a heavy fall of snow, and nothing was known of the wreck until the following morning, when the beach was found literally strewed with the remains of the vessel. On the 9th instant another wreck happened near Fern Island. The Mary and Isabella, of Wick, struck upon a ridge of rocks within a mile of the shore. The mate and two seamen saved themselves by ««nmnung to the beoeh, but the commander and remain- der of the crew, with two female passengers, went down with the vessel, which soon broke in two, and slipped off the rocks into deep water. She was laden with a general cargo. None of the sufferers have yet been washed ashore. The vessel was valued at £ 500. On the evening of the 8th inst., a brig, supposed to be the Chatty of Newcastle, was totally lost in the Humber. The information is detailed in a letter written by Lieutenant Hood, chief officer in the coast guard service at the station at Sandlemere, who states that the vessel was seen running for the beach with signals of distress flying at her mast-head, but when within a few yards of the breakers she hauled off and ran towards the Humber, and was soon lost sight of. CAUTION TO CLERGYMEN.—We would earnestly caution gentlemen who are preparing themselves as candidates for holy orders to be upon their guard against persons adver- tising in the public newspapers, professing to be able to give a curacy with title, and who, on being applied to, pretend to offer a nomination, not only on payment of a sum down, but on condition that the nomination shall be accepted without stipend, or perhaps on payment of some trifiing sum during the first year. A case of this description has come to our knowledge within the last few days, in which the candidate's papers have been obtained from him under such false promises and pretences; and he is in consequence subjected to the greatest personal inconvenience and anxiety. As any title obtained on such terms would be both improper and illegal, this caution we hope will prove of service. It is almost unnecessary to say that the incumbent of the parish to which the pretended title was to be given, as well as the bishop of the diocese, were in utter ignorance of the tran- saction, and the person duped only found out the deceit practised upon him when he applied to the former; and is utterly unable to trace out the person who has thus imposed upon hirn.-Cainbridge Advertiser. THE MUTILATION CASE.—LEEDS, February 17.Since the adjourned inquest held on Monday week, on the muti- lated trunk of a female found in the river Aire Navigation at Leeds, nothing has transpired to. aiford any clue to the identification of the individual who, there is no doubt, has been murdered, or to the discovery of the perpetrator or pei-petrators of the awful tragedy. The magistrates, by offering a reward of E20., and taking every other means in their power, have been indefatigable in their exertions to unravel the mystery in which the affair is involved, but all their efforts have failed of producing a satisfactory con- clusion. The coroner for the borough has received two or three letters respecting parties missing from different parts of Yorkshire, but nothing that he, the magistrates, or the police authorities have been able to connect in the least with the disfigured and burnt trunk discovered here. GRETNA-GREEN PARSO:SS.- We observe by announce- ment in some of the London papers, that some worthy gentlemen in London are about to enlighten the public on the subject of Gretna -green marriages, by the publication of a book called The Gretna-green Memoirs by Robert Elliot; with an Introduction and Appendage, by the Rev. Caleb Brown." In addition to this information we have been honoured with u copy of what Mr. Elliot calls a cercler," which he is desirous we should publish as a paragraph for the benefit of our readers. From this cercler" we learn that this interesting work contains an accurate accouut of remarkable elopements, pursuits, anec- dotes, &c., never before published." Then we are further informed that there is in the press," to be published by subscription, The Gretna-green Register, containing the names of 7,744 persons married by Robert Elliot, the Gretna-green parson," It is added, that "The whole is being carefully printed from the original registers written and kept by himself." The Gretna-green parson, we sus- pect, has fallen into dishonest hands, or he would not have suffered it to be said that he was about to publish registers which never had existence. The Gretna-green parson is pretty well known in this neighbourhood. He married a granddaughter of old Joe Paisley, the original "blacksmith," and after the death of that worthy parson" he set up an opposition shop in the marriage line to David Laing, who had acquired some notoriety in the business. This was in 11811 and he continued in the trade" until 1828, when it either fell away from him or he fell away from it. His reverence subsequently condescended to act as horsekeeper or hostler at one of the inns in the city; and a few months ago was sent for to London, as a witness in some marriage case, and is now set up as an author! We suspect the whole thing to be an attempt to gull the public into the purchase of a book of inventions. If 7,000 were deducted from the names of those to be inserted in the register," the- number would still exceed, by many a score, those who were actually married," as it is called, "by Robert Elliot, the Gretna-green Parson.
