__--SKETCH OF A PARIS DIARY…
SKETCH OF A PARIS DIARY AND NOCTUARY. I PARIS, JUNE, MONDAY.—At eleven o'clock, p. m.. visited the Salon.—This is the place .(par excellence) where soft-headed Noblemen and weighty-pocketed Commoners assemble. Found Lords A, B, and C, at rouge let noir; had seen Lords A and B in the afternoon, in the same place. Don't, recollect the morning stakes. In the even- ing-Lords A and B put down 12,00 ) francs each on a colour. Lord C. only risked one louis.— (N. B. Lord C appeared more anxious about the fate of the one louis than the others about, their 605.) D, Esq. M.P. lost two coups of 2000 fr. He is a taciturn kind of gentleman, accustomed to the powerful monosyllables aye and 110 he merely ejaculated, but I heard, the expressive word, yich 1 The Reverend Mr. E. staked 200 francs. Heard him say it was the first time he entered- a gaming house would never set his foot in one again. J'ai. bien souvent, to men both of whom formerly kent a hell in Pail, in the vicinity, and have lately been liberated from a cot)fin-cmeilt of twelve months, I remarked that they were acquainted with the company. They staked a few louis.-for the good of trade, I suppose. Won 280; proofrositive that it only requires luck to get money. The blacks and reds, I dare say, recognized their old acquaintance, Messrs. F, G, and H, also playing; the two first are gentlemen, the hedges and ditches of of whose estates are the same as those which formed the bouuilarico of th..ir lands, in the time of William the Conqueror. The third, Mr. H, is a stock-broker; all right with the lastin his proper element. He will swim where others will drown.—(Metn. Thought of the hedges and ditches of the. oves and botes: bad some Idea that in the reign of George they might change owners; perhaps fall into the hands of a Jew— most likely a Jew. Now I reflect, theirs are the very estates that would suit a certain Israelite of my acquaintance, worth, at least, a dozen plums and who, if seen on the Stock Exchange, is never to be found at Frascati's nor the Salon.) One o'clock, a. m. went to the Rue fRichelieó. A considerable number of new faces; don't know their names shall catch one quarter of them at the Salon another night, and the others in the Palais Royal, Remarked a stout red-faced gen- tleman, about fifty looked like an opulent far- mer, but soon recognized him as an old acquain- tance: he was a tallow-chandler, and resided not many miles from Piccadilly he supplied my fa- mily with candles during several years. I dot' 't know whether he had lived on the fat of the land, but the fat of the land had certainly been the cause of his fortune a large one he made, and, of conrse, he paid a visit to the grande capitale. How do you play at this here same, said my old friend?—By placing your money on one side ot the table on black or red. But the table is all g-eeti.-True, enough in these rooms it is a pre- vailing colour, in every sense of the word. I'm dish'd if I dont't try my luck! He put down a louis, which he gained, n(1 I saw him win twelve consecutive coups. Walked into another room-absent ten minutes. On my return, found he had lost the twelve louis Piid fifteen others be- sides. My good friend, said f. you had bet.ter put up with the loss, and go to no, I mllst get back my twenty-seven louis first.— Took another turn round the room, ihist came up in time to the 'Talian warehouseman (thus he styles himself), to see the last of five hiU«:s slid- ing gently into the possession of the. d inker. rm melted, by G- exclaimed the silly-cockney not worth n rr Lend me one or two billets?—No, said l ill the iirst place, I have not the money, atjd if I had-touching hioigently on the shoulder," fthe weight of my finger made him quake). I never encourage gaming. Three o'clock. Walked home with my penny!ess friend who says- that he must dr.aw immediately on some fat gentleman in Lombard-street for more cash. Reached his lodging, Rue Vivienne. His part- ing words were—I'll have another tip when I gel cash from town.—Very well, Mr. Yvick, was my answer; but recollect that the shillings and pence you have scraped up OK the couriferduring thirty years, will, at the game of et noir disappear in a shorter time than it would require d i,, to burn outone of your long fours.
COUNTRY FAIRS.
COUNTRY FAIRS. The horse fair at Stranmer, last week, consist- ed of Irish horses many of which were of a su- perior description, and in fine condition but few sales were effected, as the dealers stood for high prices, and by far the greater part were taken oil The show of horses at Gatehouse, last week, was the largest e ver renieaib e 1, and there were ,t- fill,, )iit,s t)(,tit ror the saddle and till,i inlitiy oiiei. A great deal <t<" business was done. There were a great many ■English buvers Prices may be rated for good T-. e,:i, a I from to < £ 55 and « £ 60. Al Hum ford fair, last week, lean beasts had a dull sale at considerably reduced prices milch cows were also dull; but good horses were ex- travagantly dear. The supply was good. At Bridgewater fair, on Friday, there was not a very largp. supply of fat cattle but an abun- dance of lean, mostly Irish, which yielded from 4s to 5s t>.i per stone. Of hoises there was a ..great number, particularly two years old colt's; hut sales were very dull. There was a good supply of eheeie, which sold well. There \v-.ts a fine show of cattle at Dunsinuiron Thursday and the prices of Trinity Muir were f«l!y supported. There were but few hor- vs in the market, and little business done. There was a fall fair of tattle at Banchdrg. .<>n Tuesday, and die oldest person in the neigli- nevt:i- remembered so many dealers t3n>sf!t.

EXTRACT FROM "THE LIFE, &c.…
EXTRACT FROM "THE LIFE, &c. OF LORD BYRON." Article- Mr. P.;O Its Prrf-acc Mr. Southey, in his Pious Preface" to a poem whose blasphemy is as harmless as the sedition of Wat Tyler, because it is equally absurd with that singular production, calls upon thp" Legists- turelo look to it," as the toleration of such writ- ings led to the French Revolution not such writ- ing a": Yat, Tyler but as those of the "Satanic glchool." This is not true, and Mr. Soe.they kuows it to be not true. Every French wiler of any freedom was persecuted; Voltaire and Ros- seau were exiles, Marinontel and Diderot were sent to the Bastile, and a perpetual wztt- was waged with the whole class, by the existing despofis/n. In the next place, the French Revolution was tio, by any writings whatsoever, hut must have occurred had no such writers evoi ejast- ed. It is the fashion to attribute every thing to the French Revolution to every thing but the real cause. The cause is the Govern- I' ment exacted too touch, and the people could neither ffic nor 1)('(1)' more. Without this, the Kncylopedist ntight have written their lingers off without the occurrence of a "lugl. alteration.— And the English Revolution (tile tii-st I mean), what was it occasioned by ? 'I'll P, were surely as pious as Wesley and his biographer.— Acts—acts on the part of the Government, and not writings aginsi them, have caused the past convulsions, and are tending to the future. —i look tipoii it as inevitable; though no revolutionist wish to see the English Constitution restored and not destroyed. Born an Arisloctut, and natuial- Jy one by temper, with the greater part of my pre- sent propertv in the funds, what have I to a revolution? Perhaps I have more to lose in every way that, Mi". tr>,outhey^, with all his places and- present* 'for panegyrics, and abuse into the bargain. But that 8 revolution is inevi- table I repeat. The Government may exult over the suppression of petty tiicntilti these are but the recedin" waves repulsed and broken for a mo- ment on theshore, while the is stil I rol- ling on and gaining ground with every breaker.— MT. Southev accuses us of attacking the religion of country, & he is abetting it by wiittiug lives of W esley { onemode of worship is-merely destroyed by another. There never was. nor never will be, a country without a religion. We shall he told of France again but it was o<dy Paris and a frantic party, which for a moment upheld their dogmatic nonsense of theo—philanthropy.-— The Church of England, if overthrown, will be swept away by the sectarians, and Hot sceptic*.— People are too wise, too wpn-informed. too cer- tain of their own immense importance in the realms of space, ever to submit Iv the impiety of doubt. There may be a few such diffident specu- lators. like water in the pale sunbeam of human j reason-, but they are very few, and their opinions, I without enthusiasm or appeal to the passions, can never gain proselytes unless, indeed, they were persecuted thut, to be sure will increase any luiug.

Bills 38 p New 3 per Cents HH. ,w 91 PAR LI.A,IILI;T--Ar, r, is uncertainty with respect to the dissolution, some being of opinion that it will take place in October next and others that it will. last through another Session. The last general elec- tion was in March 1820; therefore as little more than fiye years have elapsed, the King's prerogative may be exercised a twelvemonth hence, and time to spare. The accounts received from Ireland are very satisfactory. The country enjoys tranquillity, nor has the rejection of the Catholic Bill disturbed, in the slightest degree, the public repose. The attempt to disfranchise them has rendered the Ca- tholic Association unpopular with thou- sands. They committed a gross error, and cannot retrace their steps. The Session of Parliament, which has concluded, opened under circumstances that threatened a much more tempestuous suc- cession of debates than, happily for the country followed the alarming indication. After the irritating and unprofitable discus- sion of the Roman Catholic question had been disposed of, the public business was carried on with a serene regularity, of which few examples can be found in our Parliamentary history, Nor is it to be concluded hastily, that the legislative mea- sures which have passed so quietly owe the facility with which they have been adopted to their real or supposed insignificance.— That such is not the case will be seen from an enumeration of a few of them. Lotus take for example, the new Combination Law, a law of necessary plain and impartial justice I between Masters and Workmen—a law of justice as to the relation of Merchant and Factor-a law repealing the obsolete Bub- ble Act—a most important law to prevent frivolous and fraudulent Writs of Error-a whole series of laws for the improved re- gulation of the Customs—aa Act for the regulation -of Consuls and Consulage Fees —for the amendment of the Navyatio;; ;,Law,)--c)f the Quarantine Laws—of the j Ship' Registry Laws—and numberless ob- jeets of the greatest importance. Within j the last 15 days of the Session no fewer IGl Statutes were enacted, including I' those which we have specified. The Jury Laws' Amendment Act alone, j' however, even taken as an insulated measure, is enough to give immor- I tality to the Session which has closed, and may be fairly placed in balance against the legislation of any six sessions within the memory of the existing generation but looking upon it as but the commence- ment of a system of legal refori-n, it fixes the time in which it has been adopted as one of the brightest eras in British history I -.Via -L- '.I
THE REVENUE.
THE REVENUE. It is gratifying- to be able to state that the Revenue for the Quarter which ended yesterday, presents the same character of increase and prosperity as the last and that extensive as have been the reductions made in Taxes and Duties, they are more than covered by the augmentation in the prodilec of those which have been left. I The Customs are the branch where this augmentation is most perceptible, but this arises in part from a cause which it is air to explain. By a regulation adopted dur- ing the present Session, a large portion of I))('. Excise Duties has been transferred to I he Customs. This has swelled the pro- duce of the Quarter to about £ 3,918,000, whilst that of the corresponding period last vear did notexoeed £ 1.907,070. The iucrc-ase therefore appears to be £ i ,920,930; but allowing for the transferred Duties, which amount to about £ 1,800,0000, it does not exceed £ 120,000. Added, how- ever, to an augmentation of ¿£80,f.59, on the last Quarter, it makes an excess of more than 200,000, over the first half year of 1824. Considerable as this is, it would have been still larger, had not the 0 sirikiiif of the operative workmen in seve- ral trades acted unfavourably both on ,the Customs and on the Excisc. Onllltlw Customs, by preventing our manufacturers from executing all the orders for exporta- tion which they had received: and on the Excise, bv compelling the refractory work- men to deprive themselves of many articles which would have augmented the p. oduce of that particular branch. Far from hav- inir positively suffered, however, it will be found also to have undergone a gratifying increase. In fact, the whole state of the public Revenue announces an uninterrupt- in prosperity, which hears a character of constancy and solidity most cheering to the country and most .honoura- bh> to those by whose wise policy it has been attained.

CHESTER ClHCi lT. Before Chief Jutice WARREN and Mr. Justics JEUVIS. Montgomeryshire, Monday, Aug. bth at Pool. ul Denbighshire.Saturday, Aug; 13th, at Ruthin. Flintshire Friday, Aug I'-Hlv, at-Mold. Cheshire. Thursday,A.ug.W5j,h,al Chester. TheSt. DavidSteam Packet, which sailed from hence on Tuesday, with a number of passengers for Chester Fair, took a trip to Priestholme \s-' land and back on the day previous, with upwards of 60 persons on board, who appeared all delight- ed with the exetirsioii.-Several gentlemen amused themselves with shooting Puffins, Gulls, &c. on the Island, for upwards of an hour, The last suspension chain for the Bridge over the Menai, was passed on Saturday last, making in the whole sixteen chains, each weighing about 25 tons. We shall not attempt to describe the ponderous magnitude of this great national under- taking, it must be viewed to be duly appreciated. If the name of Inigo Jones has been worthily- had in remembrance in this country for his archi- tectural skill, in how much greater estimation must that of Telford be held by succeeding gene- rations?—The fineness of the day induced nearly as large an assemblage of both sexes to view the passing of this last chain, as what attended to witness the first.-Tlie shores of both sides, par- ticularly Anglesey, were lined with groups of elegantly dressed ladies the river was also co- vered with boats, filled with company, and dis- playing various flags and colours, with firing of guns at intervals. The process of hauling up the chain occupied about an hour and a quarter, when the workmen passed in procession over the river upon planks fixed between the chains, a stage being erected in the centre on which a band was placed, playing God save the King," and other national tunes,, which, with the cheering from the shores and on the river, ha(l; altogetl,.cr a most pleasing and gratifying effect.—The St. David Steam Packet, from Chester, Lieut. Sars- field, R. N. with a party on board, and colour^ flying, had the honour of being the first vessel allowed to pass through since the fixing of the chains, and was loudly ilieere(I.-We. cannot ose this without bearing testimony to the great skill and ability manifested by the acting engineer, Mr. Rhodes, no accident or failure whatever has occurred in passing these immense chains—the whole has been conducted with the greatest order, precision, and regularity, and witn less noise and bustle than we have sometimes witnessed in weighing a ship's anchor. The workmen were liberally regaled in the evening with plentiful li- bations ofewriv-da, &c. The completion of the masonry work by Mr. Wilson, the Contractor, combining so much strength with beauty in ap- pearance, bears honourable testimony to his skill and talents.—We must now turn our attention to the Bridge over the Conway, where a similar process in passing the chains we hope will not long be delayed thus those persons who have been disappointed or prevented from seeing what has taken place at the Menai Bridge, will have another opportunity afforded them amidst the ro- •inanjic scenery surro.uadkg the ancient, town of Conway.
