We received on Friday a series of Ga- zettesfrom llobart-town, Van. Dieman's Land, to the end of August. The pro- gresq of improvement in this Hue colony appears to be extremely rapid, of which, perhaps, the most striking instance is afforded in the projected establishment of passage-vessels, constructed after the manner of the Leith and Berwick smacks, to sail regularly between Hobart-town' and Sidney, for the convevance of pas- sengers. A company had been formed for this purpose at Hohart town, to which the sum of £ 2,500 had been subscribed, the whole amount required for the under- taking being £ 6,000. The Berwick, a passage-vessel for Van Dieman's Land, ri it t)s t ife had brought out a supply of Merinos,th'e greater part of which arrived safe bgt of 24 head of horned cattle, shipped on board the same vessel, the whole unfor- tunately perished. These cattle were ot the approved breed, and in consequence of the very serious loss sustained, as well to the colony as to the individuals con- cerned, a legal investigation was likely to take place on the subject.—We are glad to perceive that proper protection is given to the passengers on their voyage to this colony, by giving them damages in the law courts in cases of neglect or ill- treatment of the captain. Three actions for such conduct were brought in the Lieutenant Governor's Court, against the Captain of the Berwick, in all of which verdicts were given tor the plaintiffs — It was in contemplation to establish a bank at Hobart town. Very sad ac- counts are ngi t"!Jl ol thf state of the mar- ket for merchandize from the mother country. The stores were glutted, and the letters earnestly pray that no more may be sent out for the present. 0

BUSINESS Tjh^PAltlJAMEST.
BUSINESS Tjh^PAltlJAMEST. -0- Tuesday, in the House of Lords, Lord Darnlcy moved for several papers illustrative of the state of Ireland, which were granted without op- position. lu the House of Commons, Mr. Hume present- ed a petition from a person of the name of Latcho, complaining of injustice and oppression.^ The petitioner had been convicted (as he said unjustly) under the Vagrant Act, upon the evidence of a watchman, who charged him, before Sir D. Williams, with an indecent exposure. He had appealed to the Sessions, at an cxpence of lol, which he had to borrow, and the eonviciion had been quashed; his partner in punishment being retained at hard labour upon the tread-mill, be- cause he was unable to raise the 151. Mr. Peel and Mr. Lyttleton defended the inten- tions of the author of the ^Vagrant Act, which, they said, were founded in mercy but the for- mer admitted that the Act required correction, and in particular observed upon the omission of a clause giving discretion to the magstrates to, j mitigate punishment below a month's imprison- ment, aid also to the deficiency of a proper dis- tinction between voluntary and accidental,or| other inv oluntary exposures. No business of any interest whatever was on Wednesday transacted in the llouse of Lot'dS.' The proceedings in the House of Commons were very miscellaneous. The tollowing were the most interesting:— Mr. Western, in moving for leave to bring in a bill for the regulation of the qualification otjurors, explained that the object of his proposed measure was to enlarge the number of persons qualified to serve on comity juries, by extending this privi- lege to proprietors of personal property to the e IHtíount of c £ "10() as it had already been extended incorporations. Mr. Lockhart said that he did not intend to op- pose the bill, though he thought that a measure likely to withdraw the office of jurors from the class of yeomanry who had always been found to execute its duties so advantageously for the pub- lic, ought to be watched with great vigilance. Mr. Peel declared his approbation of the, prin- ciple advanced by the author of the Bill; but also avowed his concurrence with Mr. Lockhart as to the great delicacy of the subject. He sug- gested, as an improvement upon Mr. Western's plan, which seemed to leave to the petty Consta- ble the estimation of vach man's qualifications, that the payment of-the rates should be adopted as a critesion. Mr. Martin (of Galway) moved for leave to bring in a Bill for the amendment of the law which bears his name, and for extending the protections which it affords to cattle to other animals." The Hon. Member, as usual, introduced his mo- tion with a facetious speech. Having obtained leave, he then proceeded to ask leave to bring in another Bill, for the protection of Bears, Mon- keys, Badgers, &c. This motion was opposed by Mr. Peel, who asked with what justice could they suppress the sports of the poor, while every session saw them passing la n s to protect the equally cruel amuse- ments of the rich; and by Mr. Lockhart, who submitted, that the leave which the Hoil. Mem- ber obtained was quite sufficient for his purpose, as-Bears, Monkeys, and Badgers came clearly under the title other annuals." The Hon. Member.for Galway adopted the sug- gestion, agreed to.consolidate his biUsvt())'estoi*e Bears,. Monkeys, and Badgers class, and withdrew his motion. Mr. IIuiiie then moved for cerrtatif riHtiVns con- nected with the Legacy Duty. The Hon. Mem- ber accompanied his motion by urging strong ob- jections against the principle of the tax, and citing several instances of the harshness and injustice of its operation, as where duties which should have been demanded 10 or 15 years before, were, after that, delay, exacted from Executors and Admi- nistrators, long after the means of paying had passed out of their hands. Mr. Grattan moved for a copy of the evidence- taken before a Coroner's inquest in the North of treland.which inquest had, lie said, upon no better authority than that of a surgeon, who swore that the deceased had died of an inflammation of his bowels, found a verdict of verdict of—■" Na- tural death notwithstanding w hich, he (lr. G rattan) was informed that the man had been killed in an affray by two police-officers. Mr. Croulbum reminded the lion. Menibesthaf the finding of the Coroner's Inquest was no bar to a prosecution, if the family of the deceased thought a prosecution tenable. Mr. Grattan withdrew his motion. Thursday night Sir Francis Burdett presented a Petition fioiu Mr. Martin Stapylton, complain. ing of the infliction of the punishment of the tread-mill upon untried prisoners, by the Magis- trates of Northallerton. 0 Mr. Peel would not venture to pronounce upon the legality of such a discipline, but he did not hesi'ate to declare that he considered it highly impolitic to weaken the efficacy of the tread-mill punishment, most of which must arise from the association of disgrace involved in it, by apply- ing that punishment to persons who ought to bt» presumed innocent. Sir Francis Burdett, Mr. S. Woi tley; and Mp. James, said a few words each, and thus the sub- ject dropped. s. Mr. Hume then moved for a Committee tovtake into consideration the laws prohibiting the emi- ion of artificers, and the exportation of machi- all of nery, and the several statutes for the prevention or punishment of combination amongst workmen ft with a view to their repeal. The Hon. Mtniberr introduced his motion by a long.speech, which'; embodied an the arguments that are iisualiy;em- ployed upon the several hmtdor hs proposition. Mr. Huskisson professed his coneuifrtaice;Wllie rejice.# principles laid down by the lllstspeakyl" and joined him in lamenting the loss which the ques- tion and the interests of trade had suffered by, the death of Mr. Ricardo., The Right Hon.,Gentle- man seemed to think that the permission to expert machinery was a subject of more difficulty'tli^ the repeal of the laws against emigration ajid combination; but the general tendency (of h^ speech was to approve of all Mr., ILume!;? <projp^>-i SLiiOllSS A .(Committee of 21, consisting of abojit two- it 'two- thirds Members w ho usually vote with Miiiistors; was,chosen, and the house adjourned., TREAD-MH.L. I The Marquis of Lit'nsdotru said fit ano- tiier iii(,st iiii,l)or,tii, subject ro which he wishefl (I call rheir Lordships' attention, and more par- licularVy that of th.e Noble I meant the regulation of prison discipline, and the I mode of enforcing the punishment ofhard labour as Sane ioned by the Act which their Lordidiips had adopted from theo'her Houseof Parliament, lit his-view of the question, such punishment ought never to be enforced till after the convic- tion of the pany. A clause had been introduced which removed ali doubt on the subject, nor did any doulv wilt respect »o i» exist in the minds of J the twenty Peers who were present at the time. The Noble, Marquis then read the clause enaci-1 ing ihe punishment of hard labour for those, who were sentenced thereto," and providing employment" was not synonymous with pun- ishment, and he was confident that the Legisla- ture entertained but one opinion on the subject. When a species of punishment was discovered, agains* which no valid objection could lie, and which in some cases might supersede the punish- ment of transportations and death, it was most material that it should be generally known 'hat the ignominious s'igiua was confined to guilt alone, and that all persons in au'hori y should be res'rained from applying so marked a punish- ment to persons not corniced by law. He was perstnded lie Noble Earl would agree with him in this opinion, and if the rule had hitherto been transferred, it ought in future to be most stricly observed. The Karl of Liverpool concurred entirely hi wha' had fallen from tlie Noble Marquis, lie thought that there was not only a viola1 ion ot the letter but of "he spirit of the law, and tlui' the ev il ouglu to be remedied. (Hear^ftear.)— It was most maeriat that a proper dis iiic ion should be made in 'he tre(t'Hlelll of a prisoner before and af er his con vie ion. An etrt,v ittl remedy should be applied to the evil in question. i The Lord Chancellor, in adverting 10 tiie sub- ject of Appeals, took occasion to ol)serk-e tlltl he in1 ended to make certain altera ions ,111 prac ice of the Court of Chancery, for 'he betie- tii of sui'ors. Conformably to 'hesr Lordships' recommendation. Those, however, who were acquainted with the details of >hti• Coui", must be aware how difrictilt was the .task.imposed up- on him.—Adjourned. In the House of Lords, on Friday, Earl GroS-' venor put a question to the Earl of Liverpool relative to the appointment of Mr. Vincent to the office of Itememberancer of the Exchequer, which office had been recommended for extinction by the Finance Committee of the House of Common*. The Earl of Liverpool explained that arrange- ments for the extinction of the office were under consideration by the Treasury and that Mr. Vincent had been appointed to discharge its dutiefe ad interim.. The Marquis ofLansdownc then adverted to the determination of the Magistrates at Northaller- ton Sessions, to submit untried prisoners to the discipline of the tread-mill, which he said was a flagrant perversion of the law. The Earl of Liverpool replied, without hesita- tion, that lie thought the proceedings alluded to grossly illegal, and no less impolitic. The evil, he said, must be remedied altogether. In the House of Commons a conversation took place in the Committee of Supply between Mr. Hume and the Chancellor of the Exchequer, from which it would appear that the Hon Member for Montrose intends to propose a repeal of all the raw sugar duties. The House then went into a Committee upon the Reciprocity of Duties bill, when Mr. Huskis- son put some resolutions, which relating to the details of practice, will be most satisfactorily read in our report. Mr. Robertson took the opportunity to com- plain of the injury inflicted upon the shipping in- terest by the act in question. The other proceedings of the House of Com- mons were of inferior interest.
.-'-; VACCINATION,'.''..'."
VACCINATION, IT appears from the Reports of the Nrutional; Vaccine Board to the Right Hon. Robert Peel,, that the applications for lymph have been more than usually numerous—a proof that the. tonfi- ¡ dence of the world in vaccination is increasing, particularly since the Parliamentary establish- ment, where the inoculating matter is ahvays to be procured. C tli(! last report;: lymph had been dispatch- ed/o ttie East and West Indies, to Ceylon, to the Cape of Good Hope, the island of Mauritius, the coast of Africa, New South Wales, ami to France and Italy, &c. The Report then states tTtat it had been distributed in this kingdom witj\ great success, for the small-pox has prevailed as an epidemic with more than ordinary ''malignity in various parts of this island lately, atid has committed great ravages in those districts where if found victims unprotected against it pre- vious process. i The advantages of vaccination in plafes sub- ject to those severe visitations have cón fessedly decisive and remarkable those who had used this resource being observed to remain ge- nerally unhurt in the midst of danger anrl if there were any whom the contagion was able to infect, these were remarked, almost universally, to have the disease in thatmitigated form which is not attended with danger." The total iiumber vaccinated from 1818 to 1822 in the United Kingdom (excepting the capital) Is 327,5-21, and the total by the stationary vaccina- I tors for the same time, 31,275. In 1821 there were 1)0,000 persons vaccinated in Ceylon 20,141) in the Presidency of Fort WiHiam j atid •22,478 in that of Bombay.

miECON CYMilEIG YDDIOX:
miECON CYMilEIG YDDIOX: Ox Monday, the 9th instant, a Meeting of the Brecon Cymreigyddton, took jireparaforv to the Annuiil Meeting on St. David's Day, wheji several excellent compositions were, delivered upon subjects proposed by the Boeiety. In *t)ii*' course of the evening," the Rev. T. Puice ad- dressed the Meeting in the Ancient-BiUish, in which Language all 'proceedings the Soci- ety are conducted, and observed that Hit>, exter- mination of their native Language had been anx- iously desired by many, and that upon the pre- sumption of great advantage resulting to the principality from such an event. How. far this idea was correct, it was not his present business to enquire—-nor would such enquiry be attended With any utility, for whatever advantages ini^Ht' result from the extirpation of the Welsh Lan- guage, it was very evident that for fhe present at least, and in all probability ffpr sontt) genera- tions to come, the project was impracticable, as the very suspicion of such a wish e^is ir.g, had roused the jealousy of the Welshmen, and pro- duced^ such a counteraction among them, as to1 place it upon a hrmer fonadatton than it had oc- cupied for ages. Such then being the case, this very circumstance alone would be gillyieleilt ft) justify the object of the Cvmreigyddhin, which is the c}dtiv(ilio)i of the Welsh Language. For as it must continue for some ages at least, to be the, Language of the Christian Ministry through- out a great portion of the Principality, it be- comes absolutely necessary that those with whom it is the only medium of religious and moral in- struction, should so far cultivate it as to be able not only to conrerseill it, but also to understand the reading of the scriptures, and their exposi- tion from the pnlpit, for among the mass of the inhabitants of every country, numbers would be found who conld express themselves sufficiently well upon the ordinary" occasions of life—but w ere any object, of higher importance to be set before them, they would be utterly incapable of understanding it. The removal of this evil, wheresoever it may exist in the Principality, is one of the beneficial consequences to be antici- pated from tlie operation of the Cymreigyddion Societies. But the Cymreigyddion professed other ob- jects, connected with the literature and general improvement of their race, and he would there- fore lay before them one object which had but too little occupied the attention of his country-' men.lt is well-known that there exists in that province of France, called Bietagne, a race of people of Celtic origin, atid whether the remains people of Celtic origin, and whether the remains tofi the antient Gauls, or the descendants of the ^followers of Conan Meiriadoc, who, in the time of the Emperor Meximus, established a Welsh I Colony in Gaul, it is certain that they speak a Language so similar to the Welsh, as lwadf to vsliew the identity of their origin. [Here Mr. /Price gave several specimens of the Breton, which were generally intelligible tor those pre- sent.] Now this People, he said, aye f»i a state of the most deplorable ignorance and supers!i- tion, and what may be considered a* die chief cause of it all—they have now had the k-rlptures translated into tlieir taiiguage, Me, therefore, proved tlwit ,a collection should be made -for the purpose of ti«wv»latiug the scifiptures into the Breton Language nor was "this a duty of clmiity only but on the parto(th, Welsh, it was the discharges of a debt which had lain heavilv upon them for more than. It thousand Tears for in those troublesome times about! the departure of the Roman legions from this island, the British Church was threatened with exteriai. nation by the Pelagion heresy, which was at that time spreading itself in an alarming manner dVer the island. The British Christians, th&rt?- fore, sent over for assistance to their brethicu ki Gaul, and they immediately dispatched back to Britain Garmon and Bleiddiau, with Illtyd, Cad- ruiti Paearn, and a numerous body of learned and pious men, who exerted theiuselvos with such zeal, that they preached down, and effectu- ally suppressed that destructive heresy, and es- tablished so firmly the security of tlie British Church, that it continued to flourish with such vigour, as that the Britons of Wales maintained their independence free from the yoke of I opery for many eenturies after the rest of Europe had submitted to it. These services had never been requited, but he trusted that an opportunity now offered of making them some remuneration, bv sending them the Bible in their native tongue.-— When Bonaparte was Emperor "f the Fcciteli, he caused a census to be made of the inhabitants of his Empire, according to their respective Lan- guages, and there were found bJeven Hundred Thousand speaking the Celtic-this is a number double that of those who use the Welsh Lan- guage, and yet these poor Armoricans have ne- ver had the word of God in their native tongue, though the Welsh have been in possesion af it for upwards of two centuries, and oflMunerous editions of it. lie said it was high tune, there- fore, that we should at length render justfce to the Bretons, by sending them the senptums ui their own Language; and he thought, that tf all the Cymroaidd Societies throughout, the king- dom were to co-operate in this work, it could ncrt faitofsuceess. It was, then Resolved, that after Divine Ser- vice, which the Society would attend, at St, Ma- ry's Clwirch, Brecon, on St. David's Day, a col-t Jeptlon should be made for the purpose of ing the above object into execution.
