gaturftaj) to monftag?** iflosts. LONDON, FEB. 2. THE French papers to Wednesday have arrived. X They relate principally to the trials of two indivi- duals for the attempt to shoot the King at the opening of the Chambers in November last, and the situation of the Duchess de Berri. The intended assassins would appear, if the evidence can be relied on, to be- long- to a Political Society, and to have acted on its principles. The most important avowal in the indict- ment refers to this point. The Police," says this do- cument, knew that there existed at Paris a multitude of associations where regicide was the basis and fun- damental rule of their union—that the greatest part of the Friends of the People,' and particularly the mem- bers of the society of'the Rights of Mail,' encouraged each other to commit this crime, and that, with this object, they purchased arms and practised at a mark." The proceedings will excite the greatest interest, as the Movement party seem still inclined to regard the whole affair as a manoeuvre of the police, contrary to the di- rect testimony offered in the preliminary investigation, and in defiance of all the common estimates of ficti- tious conspiracies.-The Carlists have published a kind of divine-right protest against the conduct pursued by the Government with respect to the Duchess de Berrl. They declare that her Royal Highness cannot be tried, that she cannot be detained without trial, and that she. cannot be punished by exile. It seems difficult to say what such persons would really propose, short of her establishment at the Tuileries, as Regent of the king- dom in the name of her son, Henry Y.-—Marshal Soult, although confined a few days from the kick of ahorse, has never been disabled from attending to the minis- terial functions of his department; and the reports, in consequence, of a successor to him being about to be appointed, may be considered as totally destitute of foundation. These papers report the probability of an alliance between France, England, and Austria, for the purpose of checking the Russian Eagle's meditated swoop on Turkey. A sloop of war, La Diligente, had been ordered to proceed with all possible despatch to Alexandria, upon an important mission. A squadron, collected at Brest, is spoken of as about to proceed to the Tagus, to demand reparation for certain wrongs inflicted on French subject by the Government of Por- tugal, in case that the latter shall refuse to make the necessary atonement: and another is said to have been collecting for some time, the destination of which is supposed to be the Levant, to co-operate with the French fleet already there. This, however, is mere conjecture. The Dutch papers to Thursday's date have arrived in town. They are still barren of any information of value as to the intentions of the Court respecting the last demands of England and France. The matter, it would appear, was still under discussion, having already oc- cupied the anxious consideration of more than one Council of the Dutch Ministers. On Friday last the Cabinet was again summoned, and the occasion was deemed of so much importance that the King himself presided. The last despatches from London was the subject, but this sitting had not concluded the discus- sion of them. In a letter from the Hague, dated the 25th ult., it is stated, that these despatches are still under consideration, and the answers not yet deter- mined upon. It is affirmed that the negotiations at London are not to be continued unless the Scheldt is again opened, whilst our Government requires that the prisoners and ships be .previously released. It appears by the last accounts from London, that the detention of our ships is still rigorously enforced." The Jamaica papers to the 17th of December, re- ceived on Thursday, are calculated to create feelings of alarm for the tranquillity of that island, in conse- quence of a difference between the Board of Council and the House of Assembly. This difference appears to have originated in the refusal of the latter to receive two Bills sent down by the former on the 12th Decem- ber—one of them for enforcing the attendance of Ma- gistrates on the summary trial of slaves; and another, authorizing vestries to take probate of deeds as well as Magistrates. The appearance of the later excited a high ferment among the Representatives of the Jamaica planters, and the Speaker of the Assembly told the Clerk of the Council, that with every respect for the Council, he was bound to decline receiving the Bill. The message," he added, I am ready to take, but the Bill I cannot receive without violating the rights and privileges of this House." In answer to the denial of their right, the Board of Council came to strong re- solutions, not only asserting their right to originate all Bills, except Money Bills, but declaring their determi- nation not to eo-operate with the House of Assembly until it should retract its doctrine, and, in the most un- equivocal terms, acknowledge the right of the Board. On the following day the Speaker had scarcely taken the chair, when the Provost-Marshal-General" ap- peared at the bar, and commanded the attendance of the Assembly in the Council Chamber, where his Ex- cellency gave his assent to a Money Bill, and dissolved the Legislative Body-a resource provided by the Con- stitution for cases of such extremity, and thus making an appeal to the people, happily under a more extended and liberal franchise than that which returned the for, mer House of Assembly. His Excellency took the op- portunity of reading to them a pretty severe lecture, for the law of menace and defiance they had formerly assumed. By the American papers last received, it appears the House of Representatives at Washington has, with all convenient speed, reported a bill for the modifica- tion of the obnoxious tariff, obviously designing, by the satisfactory reduction of duties before the 1st February, to deprive the inhabitants of South Carolina of all pre- text for putting into execution the rash project of re- sistance which they had fixed for that date. These modifications are evidently framed for the relief of the southern states. The diminution of duties is greatest 011 those manufactured articles which they employ for the clothing of their slaves, and in the gratification of their own luxurious habits. The reduction in the for- mer case comes so low down as 5 per cent, ad valorum. On almost all manufactured articles the reductions are considerable, particularly on cottons, woollens, and iron. The rate of duty has been materially raised on silk and tea, being a foreign produce. The latest ac- counts from the Carolinas mention that the irritation among the inhabitants continued, that no person fa- vourable to the continuance of the Union could hold an pfficial situation. There had, however, been no ob- struction to the collection of the duties.

USE OF BREAD.—All animal food has a tendency to grow putrid. Its doing so in the human body would be pro- ductive of unwholesome humours, indisposing and agonising two whole frame, did not bread, by the acidity it acquires in process, correct the humours and avert the evil. Thus, but for the use of bread, all the wealth of the voluptuary would be insufficient to save him from painful disease and premature death!—Pinnock's Guide to Knowledge. SWEDISH TURNIPS.-It has of late become a practice with many of the practical farmers in this country, to cart their Swedish turnips off the land before Christmas, or as soon after as convenient, and clamp them in the same manner as mangel-wurzel; some just as they are pulled up with the tops and roots upon them; some with the tops and roots both taken off; and some with the tops only, and those not cut but wrung off. We believe the first of these plans to be decidedly the best, but care should be taken to clamp them, if possible, when they are in a dry state, and at all times to avoid doing it with the least degree of frost upon them. We observe, in some districts, both the white turnips and the Swedes are moulded up with the plough, and as regards the white turnip the system is good, but we are convinced, both by observation and experience, that all the Swedish turnips (not intended to be fed upon the land) ought before this time of the year, to be drawn off the land and secured in the way before mentioned.—The advantages to be derived from such a practice are twofold—first, it af- fords more employment for manual labour second, the land is less exhausted, and it will also be in a cleaner state for the succeeding corn, consequently will yield a greater produce.—Mark-lane Express. ALLOTMENTS OF LAND.-The following is the detail of an experiment made by W. T. C. Cooper, Esq. in the parish of Toddington, Derbyshire:—At Michaelmas, 1832, a large field was divided among 41 labourers, in pieces vary- ing in size according to the ridges into which it was accus- tomed to be ploughed, giving the larger portions to those with the largest families. This land was of the same quality, and was let upon the same terms, as the former; but as it was for the most part extremely foul and out of condition, very little wheat was put in; and indeed; it was appre- hended in the spring that the men would hardly be able to get their potatoes in but they turned to with hearty good will (they were working for themselves) and the farmers having ploughed the land for them in the autumn, they set most of it with potatoes, and some with corn and vegetables: their crop of potatoes has been abundant, some of the lots having yielded from 60 to 80 and 90 bushels. That the people received benefit from these allotments is evident from the labour they bestow, not only in getting out the couch grass and other weeds, but also from their actually making good and substantial hollow drains. It is farther shown by their good and orderly conduct. In summer evenings, instead of idly lounging about the place, or doing mischief, they are occupied about the land. It is a heart cheering sight to see 40 to 50 persons, after their master's work is done, labouring upon their own little farms, weeding and clearing the crops till day-light fails, and then going quietly home, doubtless with the pleasing anticipation of their la- bour eventually making them independent of the parish as their fathers,or rather their grandfathers, had been formerly. IMPROVEMENT ON THE POTATOE.-The Oxalis Cre- nata has lately been introduced in this country from Chili, in South America, and is likely to be extensively cultivated, as decidedly preferable to the common potatoe. A root was brought over in 1830 by Mr. David Douglas, and planted by Mr. Lambert; and a few small tubers were exhibited to the Linnasan Society. One of these was planted by Mrs. Hurst, in the garden of Great Roper's Hall, near Brent- wood, Essex, and has succeeded remarkably well. It was first put into a small pot in the end of April, and in the p month of May the pot was placed in the flower-garden and broken, and the parts removed. This precaution appears to have been unnecessary, for it has stood the frost remark- ably well, and on the 5th of this month, when it was dug up, the leaves were green. The root planted was about half an ounce in weight, and the roots produced were about ninety in number, in a space not exceeding nine inches in diameter and six inches deep. The aggregate weight was upwards of four pounds. A few of the roots were boiled, and when eaten, where found to resemble the potatoe, but were una- nimously admitted by all the party to have a more agreeable flavour. Such a result is very promising, and when we consider that the common potatoe (Solanum Tuberosum) was, for more than a century, confined to gardens, and that its roots were for a long time not larger t, than beans, and were watery, we may reasonably expect that cultivation may do much to enlarge the size of the roots of the Oxalis, and perhaps improve the flavour beyond what it is at present. It has a fine yellow flower, and is ornamental in the garden. Besides the family at Roper's, several other botanists have visited and watched the progress of this Oxalis. The stems were numerous, large, and diffuse the flowers, which ap- peared in August, yellow, and slightly notched: hence the epithet crenata. At present, the tubers somewhat resemble Mnall kidney potatoes, inclining, however, to grow in an aggregate form.

The mission of Sir Stratford Canning to Madrid, so |ar as regards his attempt to change the policy of the Spanish Court with respect to Portugal, is unequivo- cally asserted to have failed. It is however considered that Sir Stratford is likely to succeed in laying the foundation of an advantageous commercial treaty with that country. It is reported that the Dutch vessels detained in the several ports of this kingdom will be released at the be- ginning of the ensuing week. It is however at the same time said, that the French Government has not yet as- sented to any such step on its part. Admiral Sir Thomas Williams hoisted his flag on Wednesday, on board the Victory, at Portsmouth, as Commander-in-Chief at that port, in the room of the late Admiral Foley. Admiral Sir Henry Thornbrough, G. C. B. was ga- zetted on Friday Vice-Admiral of England, Lieutenant of the Admiralty, and Lieutenant of the Fleet, in the "Jom of the late Admiral Lord Exmouth; as also the James Tate, M- A. to the Canon Residentiary of Cathedral Church of St. Paul, London, void by the "oath of Dr. Thomas Hughes. The departure of Captain Back for the purpose of endeavouring to trace the fate of Captain Ross and his •adventurous companions in the polar regions, will take Place in the course of the ensuing week. Capt. Back \v1l1 be accompanied by Mr. King, a private surgeon, some other individuals, two of whom were with j*Pt. Back in his last journey to that inhospitable part "If tile globe. They proceed in the first instance to Li- verpool, and there embark on board the Hibernia P^ket-ship for New York.. .î Baron Stockmar, the friend and confidential Secre tary of the King of the Belgians, who has just departed for Brussels, is understood to be the bearer of a private commuiiication from our Cabinet to King Leopold. Within the last week no less than four richly laden vessels, of from 300 to 500 tons, have been captured by his Majesty's ship Rover, commanded by Sir— Young. A Commercial Treaty with the French Government, which is said to be on the tapis, has lately occupied the attention of the Ministry. It is stated to be the intention of the principal mer- chants and others connected with the port and trade of London, to call a general meeting of all interested, to take into consideration the present condition of their commercial interests. The Customs duties received at this port during the last year, says the Liverpool Times, amounted to nearly four millions sterling, giving an excess of 325,0001. over those of the preceding year. As the total increase in the kingdom was only 223,1671. not only must the whole of that increase have taken place in this port, but the deficiencies of other places must have been compensated for by the improvement of the trade of Liverpool. Mr. Lytton Bulwer, acknowledges that his recent article on newspaper stamps, printed in a Sunday journal, has not the concurrence or assent of Ministers, but can only be considered the result of his own hopes and expectations." Government have proposed a small tax upon emi- grants, in Canada, as calculated to provide relief for the poor themselves, and therefore to encourage rather than obstruct the influx of industrious persons from the mother country. Mr. Alderman Waithman is so extremely ill, at his house in Woburn-place, as not to be able to attend in Parliament. Should continued ill health induce him to retire from the discharge of those duties which he has performed with such perseverance and integrity, it is expected that Mr. Alderman Venables will be his successor. The new church erected in the parish of St. Dunstan's in the West, was consecrated by the Bishop of London on Thursday, in the presence of the Lord Mayor and Sheriffs, and a respectable congregation. The interior of the church is very elegant, and is beautifully deco- rated. It forms an octagon, composed of eight recesses, which extends in height nearly two-thirds of the space from the flooring of the nave to the roof, and there is a handsome Gothic window of stained glass over each recess. There is some very beautiful carved work over the altar, and above the Communion table is another stained glass window. The Bishop delivered a very able and impressive sermon after the Psalms had been read. The Sun says-Lord Warncliff has declared himself unequivocally in favour of the ballot, and if the ques- tion is mooted this Session he will give it his decided support. There have been many converts in favour j of the measure, who formerly considered the ballot fraught with imminent danger to the Constitution, and inconsistent with the spirit of a popular election. It is now, however, contended, and truly, that it would relieve dependent electors from their trammels, and enable voters to exercise their free will. Petty tyrants could then no longer trample on their tenants—trades- men could vote without giving offence to their cus- tomers—and Candidates of honour, integrity, and the fairest pretensions, would be elected Members to serve in the House of Commons. A most numerous signed petition, which measured 58 feet in length, having been presented to the vestry of St. Marylebone, from the householders thereof, re- questing the vestry to convene a public meeting forth- with, to petition the legislature for the repeal of the house and window taxes, the vestry have appointed the meeting to be held on Tuesday. Lord Kenyon (as churchwarden) will take the chair. The Morning Herald strongly urges the abolition of the Malt tax as one having a demoralizing effect. This impost, it says, besides the mischief it has in- flicted on the agricultural interests, has been exten- sively influential in breaking down the morals of the labouring classes. It prevents the cottager from brew- ing a cheap and wholesome malt beverage for himself and family. It drives him to expend his wages upon cheap gin, which has equally pernicious effects on his health, his habits, and his morals; or it furnishes him with an excuse for tippling in the beer-shop among the vicious company for which those dens of dissipation seem to have been especially provided. In every way the malt tax does mischief to the comfort, the health, and the morality of the poor." A Penny Club, for the purpose of providing the poor with clothing in several parishes bordering on Romney Marsh, has been established. A Clergyman resident in one of them waited upon Sir Edward Knatchbull, to submit the plan to his notice, and solicit his assistance in its accomplishment. The Hon. Baronet approved of the scheme, and, without a moment's hesitation, gave him 501. to be applied to its objects during the present year. It may be necessary to remind all individuals who are entitled to the right of voting under the 101. quali- fication, that no person can be registered in September next, unless he has occupied the property in respect of which he claims from the 31st July, 1832, to the 31st July, 1833, and unless he has been duly rated as such occupier, in his own Christian and sir name, to all the poor-rates laid between these dates. Persons who may find errors in the way in which they are described in the rates should get them corrected, which the 30th clause of the Reform Act renders it imperative on overseers to do. A correspondent of the Suffolk Chronicle writes, It will give general satisfaction to the public at large, and pleasure to you, to record an instance of disinterested conduct in a worthy Clergyman, who has, I understand, voluntarily resigned the office of a Civil Magistrate- though, from general habits of business, superior edu- cation, and talent, he is certainly not inferior to any on the Bench. This conscientious conduct in thus relin- quishing a power that too many of his brethren far too ardently pursue, is highly praiseworthy, and ought to have the sanction and approbation of the public. I understand he attended at a Meeting of Magistrates at Needham, and there publicly declared his intention of no longer acting in that capacity. This excited much surprise to some of the company. When pressed to give a reason for his conduct, he frankly declared that, in his opinion, the office of a civil Magistrate was incom- patible with his duty as a Minister of Christ. It seems that Mr. Steele, the faithful Squire of Mr. O'Connell, is about to undertake a mission among the most unsettled Irish districts, in order to put down the disturbances by the potent magic of his master's name. If he can succeed by any means it will be well, for the accounts continue to be extremely melancholy. On the other hand, the Irish metropolis seems to have derived a great accession of quietness by the Liberator's removal to London, especially accompanied as it has been with such a sudden blight of demonstration on the subject of repeal. The latter fact has produced all sorts of rumours as to the cause, including an ap- proaching admission of this extraordinary gentleman to office it seems that he is to be Attorney-General of Ireland, Chief Justice of Tobago (no injudicious transfer that), or something or other equally appropriate and probable. The first lottery in England was drawn during the year 1569, near the west door of St. Paul's Cathedral. It consisted of 40,000 lots, at 10s. each,—the prize being distributed in plate and the profits arising from it were intended to be used as the 11 sinews" whereby the English havens should be repaired. Quin told the Countess of Berkeley, who was a beau- tiful woman, that she looked like the spring, but recol- lecting that the season was not very propitious, he added—"I wish the spring would look like you." An Irish orator recently concluded a magniloquent speech on the advantages of reform with the following- beautiful specimen of the broken metaphor:—In short, reform," said the learned gentleman, "is th e flood which will blaze through every part of the kingdom."
HOUSE OF LORDS.'
HOUSE OF LORDS. THURSDAY, JaM. 31.—The House met at two o'clock. The Lord Chancellor and the other Lords Commissioners took their seats, and the Commons having beeu summoned by the Usher of the Black Rod, Mr. M. Sutton appeared at the Bar, between Lord Morpeth and Sir F. Burdett, and attended by a considerable number of the Members. Mr. M. Sutton addressed their Lordships, and informed them that, in obedience to his Majesty's commands, his Majesty's faithful Commons of the United Kingdom had proceeded in the exercise of their undoubted right to elect a Speaker, and it was his duty to acquaint their Lordships that their choice had fallen on him. From no short ex- perience of the difficulties of, that high situation, it was im- possible for him not to doubt his own capacity to discharge its duties; and, if his Majesty should be graciously pleased to disapprove their choice, he felt well persuaded that his Majesty's faithful Commons would find no difficulty in electing some other individual better qualified than himself. The Lord Chancellor informed Mr. M. Sutton that the Lords Commissioners were commanded by his Majesty to assure him that his Majesty was so fully satisfied of his zeal for the public service, and of those many eminent qualities which had so often recommended him to the choice of the Commons, and, further, of'his matured experience in most arduous and trying circumstances, that his Majesty did fully approve of the choice of his faithful Commons, and did con- firm him to be their Speaker. The Speaker then said, that with all humility he submitted himself to his Majesty's pleasure and it now became his duty, in the name and on behalf of the Commons of the United Kingdom, to lay claim by humble petition to all their ancient and undoubted rights and privilege's; more especially those of freedom of debate, freedom from arrest for them- selves and servants, free access to his Majesty when occasion might demand, and that his Majesty would be most graciously pleased to put the most favourable construction on all their proceedings; and for himself, he earnestly entreated that if any error should be committed by him, it it might not be imputed to his Majesty's faithful Commons. The Lord Chancellor informed Mr. Speaker, that the Commissioners had it further in command, from his Majesty to inform him, that his Majesty did confirm all the rights and privileges that had ever been granted to, or conferred on, the Commons by any of his Majesty's Royal predecessors. With respect to the Speaker himself, his Majesty, though sensible that there was no need of such assurance, had com- manded them to say that his Majesty would ever put the most favourable construction on his words and actions. The Speaker, accompanied by the Commons, then with- drew. Several Peers took the oaths, and the House adjourned at four o'clock. FRIDAY, Feb. 1.—The House met at two o'clock. The Marquis of Anglesea, Lord Holland, the Earl of Munster, Lord Beresford, the Marquis of Londonderry, the Bishop of Durham, the Duke of Somerset, and several other Peers, took the oaths.—Adjourned till Monday. HOUSE OF COMMONS. THURSDAY, Jan. 31.—The Speaker entered the House at two o'clock, took his seat at the table, and at a quarter past two o'clock the Usher of the Black Rod came to the table, aud, addressing the Speaker, said, the Lords, au- thorised by virtue of his Majesty's Commission, desire the immediate attendance of this House in the House of Peers, to hear the Commission read." The Speaker, accompanied by Lord Morpeth and Sir F. Burdett, and followed by nearly all the Members present, proceeded to the House of Peers. On his return, he took the Chair, and communicated what had passed before their Lordships. The Right Hon. Gentleman repeated his ac- knowledgments for the honour that had again been con- ferred on him, and having taken the oaths himself, he pro- ceeded to swear in the Members generally—a ceremonial which lasted until half-past four o'clock—when the House adjourned. FRIDAY, Feb. I.-The House met at twelve o'clock, and the Clerks were occupied in swearing in Members from that time to four o'clock, at which hour the House adjourned.
