T I IIOmE OF COMMONS, THCRSTUY. I MR. W. SmTIl prcscnted a petition, praying the house to earrv its resolutions into effect, in respect to the amelioration of negro slavery.—MB.

On the motion of the SOLICITOR GENERAL, the benefice resignation bill was, after a short conver- sation, read a third time. MR. HUME, in prcsenting- a petition against the conduct of SIR J. NICIIOL, in his capaeityof Judge of the prerogative court, entered into a history of the case, "Peddle v. Evans," on which the charge was founded. The grounds of the charge were, the length of the litigation, the amount of the costs, and the circumstance of Walker, the attorney of Peddle, not being allowed to atteml the regis trar when the costs were taxed.—Mu. ill SIE then went on to argue, that the motion of Dr. Lee, on the 11th inst. was regular, and ought to have been entertained.—DR. LUSIIINUTON, ill a long- and able speech, vindicated the character of SIR JOHN NICHOI and showed that all the circumstances complained of were strictly ill uniformity with the established practice of the court.-MR.

LORD SEAFORD presented a petition from the proprietors of West India estates, in the ncigh, bourhood of Aberdeen, praying that a cOllllllission might be sent to the West Indies, to inquire into the condition of the slaves in those islands.—The petition was read, and laid oil the table.—LOUD CALTHORFE presented a similar petition from the inhabitants of Bristol-The DUKE OF WELI.INI.TON did not think that government had the power of forcing the colonics to the adoption of the mea- sures recommended by them, exeept, as in this country, through the proprietors, the legislatures, the magistrates, and the different officers of the colonies. Whatever power this country might possess, he certainly did not think harsh language was the proper course to be adopted to induce the colonies to a compliance with our recommenda- tions. He considered it far better to encourage the colonies to do what was su¡\"geste,¡, and to convince them that what was recolUmended to them was for their benefit as well as for ours, and that it was consistent with the IInanillJous wishes of parliament, of government, and of the people of this country. He trusted there was adisposition in the colonies to ameliorate the condition of the population gradually, and slowly but surely, con- sistent with the safety and tranquillity of the colonics themselves; but he was certain that no- thing could do more to injure and defeat their own immediate object, and to do infinite mischief here- after, than to have recourse to force.—LORD SEA- FORD regretted that the suggestions of parliament had not met with a more ready adoption on the part of the colonial legislatures but he could not allow it to be said that the colonists were not as well disposed to ameliorate the condition of slaves as any other class of persons. LORD REDESDALE condemned the temper in which the abolitionists enforced their opinions. He thought they were practically the greatest enemies of emancipation.— The petition was then laid on the table and ordered to be printed. HOUSE OF COMMONS, FRIDAY. On the motion for the thinlreading" of the con solidated fund bill, MR. S. RICE called the atteu tion of the house to the state of Ireland, and con- tended that carrying the catholic question to a successful issue, was the only means of tranquil lizing that country. rn presenting a petition from certain persons connected with the silk trade, Mn, C. GRANT de nieil that the distress of the manufacturers had been occasioned by the changes in the law made by tho late secretary for the culonies,lIfr.Huskisson, lIln, HUSKISSON moved for copies of the present American tariff, and that of IS24, and argued against the exclusive principle which pervades all tlie provisions of the former. HORRIBLE M[JKDER IN FRANCE. At the last assizes of Nevers, a man named Francis Chandron was tried for the murder of the wife of an innkeeper. It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner had entered an inn kept by a person named llotte, who was absent, and that being unable to pay for what he had taken, words ensued betwccn him and his victim, whom he stabbed repeatedly with a knife. He then robbed the bouse, and made his escape, but wassubseqncntlv apprehended, and con- fessed the murder, and said that lie suught that death which he had long ago deserved. When in prison he gave a narration of his life, which was a con- tinued series of crimes. He had been in the army, and had deserted, for which he was condemned to five years' imprisonment with hard labour, As he had several times endeavoured to escape from the prison of Rochefort, an,1 hall also endeavoured to excite revolts, his imprisonment was prolonged to eleven years. On his dismissal, he had treated a young girl so brutally as to occasion her death; and for this he was sentenced in the year 18^7, to the gallies for life. He escaped from the prison of Rouen, and being withuut an asylum, was forced to lead a wandering life. At St. Franchy, near Nevers, he had, on a fail-day, stolen a portmanteau of a traveller who was stopping at an inn where Chandron was drinking. Being pursued by the peasantry, one of whom overtook him, he stabbcd him with a knife, aiid got away, He was, howevcr, soon after taken, and was led to the prison of St. Saulge, from whence he also escaped. His uext crime was th, t for which he was tried at Nevers. On his trial he acknowledged the murder, and narrated the circumstances with the greatest cool- ncss. He said, that for some time he had wished to commit a crime by which he should forfeit his life, as no one would associate with him. When asked on the trial where he had obtained the knife with which he had committed the murder, lie, said that he had stolen it from an inn at St, Saulge, with the intention of killing the lady, but that his blootl had cooled, and he left without carrying his purpose into execution, He was condemned to death, and heard his sentence with the greatest indifference. I DOG FIGHTING AND BEAR BAITING. Greet i Drajton yard, iI a!horn London. 1 Ins pit, as it is called, is a loft about 2;5 leet square, with a fire place, and in one corner of the apartment is a space enclosed with green baize, where the proprietor, his wife, and children sleep and cat. Two bears, several dogs, foxes, and bad- gers, are chained to the wall all around, many of which are in cages heaped upon each other. -ee The centre is enclosed with hoards about three feet high, containing an alea of about cight feet square, where the dogs figh t, and bearsand badgers are baited. On entering this elegant amphitheatre, the smell, as may be well supposed, is most offen- sive and the noise of dogs, bears, and rabble most, appalling, and forming a nuisance to the whole neighbourhood. The company consist of butchers, bnckmakers, jtnd others, who do not appear to live by honest industry. These are fellows who mostly bring the dogs. About an hour and a half is spent in dog- fightillg; then the bear is brought forward, and fastened to a riiig- in the centre of the pit, with a chain about two feet in length, when one dog at a time is slipped at him. The whole concludes with a badger-bait The animal is confined in a long cage, and a door at one end being opened, as with the bear OTie dog at a time is slipped. In one case, tlie bear being very young, was much lacerated by several fiercc bull- dogs, and bled profusely, bnt still evinced, though unmuzzled, the utmost docility anil good nature, holding up his bleeding paw as if to reproach his cruel master. He was led iii anil out by a little boy, who, in the intervals of torture, rode on his back. The greatest cruelty occurs when what are called matches take place, the dogs frequently lighting till one or both Ilre killed, -SK-SK-*— JOBX m:r.T.. 1 MISS KAMSBOTTOM TO JOHN BULL. I Drllr Hull.

We was a staring with a cotizen tlf mine near Lcwis, before we crossed the sea he is married, and has a jirlll horine, which his wife calls a Russen liurhv, it is so close to the town, and vet so uncommon rurlll-t hc sheep he has is called mariuos, because it is near the sea; and their wool is so tine that they fold them up every night, which I had no nution ur; they have two sorts of them, one, which they call the fine weather mllt- ton, stays out all night, I believe, and the other <10l'SIl't.. But the inarch of intellect is agoing on, for thc dirty bolS "huut the farm yard, they told me, ure sent to Harrow, and the sheep themselves harc their pens found them every night; what to do I don't know, and I never like to ask; at Battle where there is all old abbe living we did not see him they have built a large Chapel for th., Unicorns I scarcely know what sex they are; [ know the tli,.ff Itctho,ii,ts, because when Mr, Ram and I was young we used to go to the meetin, atlll hcar thelD preach like anything; r there's a great deal of religion in Sussex of one sort and another. My eldest, Mrs. Fuliner, has came here for her wishes it may be a mail, because what they have already is all gurls; if it hadn't been for that, I should have gone to Mrs. Grimsilitoh's soreye at lIaeknev last week, when I was to have been done out as Alderman Wenables, but I was obliged to he stationary here. I was so sorry to see in tli,! noosepapers that when the Lord High Admiral exhibited his feet on the ItStli of June, Maria Wood was dressed IIJ) so strange; they said that after she had painted, and some part of her scraped clean from duck week, they tietlfiags to her stays, and put a Jack into her head, which I think quite rung, because them Jacks is uncom- mon insinuating. I see that in Portugal Don Mvjewel has got three estates, but they cannot be very grand ones, if they produces only a crown however, I don't know what they mean in that country, only as thev call him real, [suppose lie is the rightful king- I don't henvy him, illr. B.—there's many happier than thein as sets upon thorns, though they be gilded ones, We met one of the engines here from Chelten- ham-he talks of returning to some friend of his in Hingy, I think he called him lien Gall. I know- lie spoke very familiar of hilll, He has been at Stinkomalee, in Sealong, and at the Island of Ma- licious where a gentleman of the name Paul killc,l himself with Virginia. Our engine said he was at Malicious and at Bonbon at the time of the eon quest, which my Truslers Crononliotonthologos tells me was in the year 1072, which makes his old appearance not surpnising—he is very antiek indeed-he says lie shall go out in a China ship, which sOIllHls to me very venturesome, but 1 sup- pose he knows what he is about-lie is going to Bombay, he tells us, to buy cotton, but that, be- tween you and mc, is nonsense, because if that was all, why could Iw not go to Flint's, in Newport- market, where they sells every sort of cotton, all done up in nice boxes ready for use. One thing 1 heard about hnnting whilc I was at the l-'iim Hornee, which I thought shocking- There is a Squire Somebody which keeps a pack 01' beadles, amI there is ever so many of thcm-and the sleep in the kennel erery night, and a man is paid to whip them into it-hut that is not the worst-they feed thein upon humane flesh. You would not scarce credit this, but 1 heard my cousin say that he wOlldere,1 this hot weather did not hurt the dogs, for they had nothing to feed on but the g avts. Do just touch them up for tliis-Ilni sure they deserve it. That selection for member of parliament in Clare is very strange, isn't it? Our old how tells us that O'Connell can't take his place because he won't swear against transportation, for he says it is one thing for a Papist to stand and another thing for him to sit, which enter noo I could have tolil Aim—however, he says lie thinks O'Connell will go to the Pigcon Hoilse, and so tho conversation dropped—indeed, the bow (as we call him) told such a strange story about Mr. O'C'onnell's getting to the top of a pole the first day, and keeping up for three or four days afterwards, that I begin to think lie tells tarrydiddles sometimes. He is very agreeable though, and I believe he is rich, which is the mane point when one has gurls to settle. He is always a making French puns, which lie calls cannon balls, but I never shall say much of a parley vous, I did not take to it early enough. W., expect the Duke of Clarence to review the Blockhead service on this coast, which will make us unenmmoll gay, He will visit the Itmnlees, which Captain l'iggut commands, at Deal, and the Epenjne, Captain Maingay's ship, at New Haven, I should like to go to Brighton, but Fulmer is afraid of 111 ,vin his better half while she is so in- disposed, and expectin every minute; however, wheu that is over, we shall, I dare say, ge to Lon- don, and hope to see you in your new house. If you come here we shall delight in seeing you; but I believe you like London, and leaves the bills of mortality if you can help it. Adoo, dear B. They all sends their loves. Your's, LAVINIA D. RAMSBOTTOM. P. S.— You writli sometimes about the Niggers, and abuse them-depend upon it they are uncom- mon mischievous even here; for my couzen told me that the Blacks had got all his beans-I only gives tiiis as an int.

COAL TRADE IN A deputation from the prineipal woollen and cotton manufacturers, brewers, distillers, &c. of Dublin and Belfast, has been for some time in town, and had, on Friday last, all audiencc of the Duke of Wellington The subject principally urged upon the attention of his grace was, the existing duties on coals in Ireland, and the necessity of their repeal.—The duke entered into the question at considerable length, and concluded by promising the deputa- tion, that during the approaching recess lie would cause a minute inquiry to lie made into the whole subject, with a view to granting the relicf sought for. He further stated, that the question of the coal trade of England, and especially that of the port of London, was about to be very fully con- sidered by government, as he was personally aware that abuses eXlstell, and that the present system tended to enhance the price of coals, especially in London, in a most unreasonable degree. _I JIlt.

Obser- ving that the lly preferred the eommon turnip > the Swedish, he sowed alternate drills of each, allowing half a peck of the common turnip seed to the acre as thick sowing to attract the tiv, and a pint of Swedish turnip seed to the acre, as a thin sowing to stand for a crop. The result \a', 11o"t the thin-sown Swedish turnips were not sensibly injured by the fly, while the thick sown ones \Hm quite \¡Iack with thc swarms. When the Swedish had got into the second leaf and out of danger, the alternating rows oftlic common sort were} loughed in, and in the crop, bein? afterwards managed in the usual way, turned out very good, whilst all tho turnip iields in the vicinity were totall\ destroyed. A similar experiment, tried near Mlandlonf, in Dorsetshire, was equally successful,—U is but riirht for IlS tu mention, however, that this plan (at lea t if the alternate rows of the common turnip I", ploughed in when in the second leaf.) will iv t. protect the ernp t'rollllhc attacks of the hlad, grshi of one of the saw Hics, ;Tenthretlo,) hieh begins its ravagesin the mnreadvanced slate MIlle plants. MAKCII OF hVETIOX. gentleman of Liver- pool has latcly brought forward an invention which is equally curious and useful. On the Darlington Railway the descent is so rrent t!r* tilc loaded waggons will 1'1111 down of thcmc" twehc miles out of twenty. It is usual to ta!;e< f the horc", and hang ilieni by a halter to trot after the waggons, by which they are very much shaken, allll move injured and fatigued than h ojn, vh«? same distance at a slower rate with a load, It lu's been found necessary in consequence to make nsc of light horses or little power, ill suited to the rest of the work. The inrcnt.ion is intended M remedy this inconvenience, and consists ot'a truck upon two wheels, which is lastcned behind a waggon, and has a small manger in front. The horse being placed ill it, down what are called the runs, quietly eats his provender, and is quite refreshed, when his services are again required.— He seems greatly phased with his conveyance, and looks around him with an air of pride, as if conscious of the dignity of riding in his OWII ear- riage. He will jump into it at full speed, and can he got out and attached again" itlhlut stoppiug- The driver can give greater velocity to the lIac- gons, and is thereby enabled, not only to save time, but also to inn over a gnat cStCllt.,f level ground, where power was formerly required. It saves above one-third of the labv.ur, and conse- quently of the nLJluber of horses. It will also have great eileet in diminishing tit, expense of constructing future rail-ways, as it renders a cer- tain undulation in the line hs-> objectionable.
