JULY.

Roman Catholics.-A bill has passed both Houses of Parliament almost without notice, which removes the principal obstacle to the entry of Roman Catholics into the navy and army. By this bill they are relieved from the necessity of taking the oaths, or subscribing to the declarations which were before an impediment to their advance, and thus situations of the highest rank are now open to them in the naval and military professions. They are not to be called on to take the oaths before entering the army or navy; and we need not tell our readers, that after they have entered the service, all further obligation of taking the oaths, or the sacrament, is done away by the annual act of indemnity, which is passed at the beginning of each session:

4.-Destruction of a Steam-Boat by Fire. -On Wednesday morning last, the Margate Steam-Packet, commanded by Captain Harvey, left London for Margate, with between forty and fifty passengers on board; and it appears, from accounts received in town yesterday; that when off Whitstable, which is eighteen miles from the port of destination, she was discovered to be on fire: at this time she was also three miles from the main land. As a vessel of this description never carries a boat larger than sufficient to hold her own crew, which seldom exceeds a dozen persons, the consternation of between forty and fifty passengers may be better conceived than described. The cause of the fire is stated to be as follows:

The gale of wind being strong, blew the chimney flue away, and the wood-work, which is nearly breast-high. from the deck, at the bottom of the flue, for the purpose of keeping the people near the chimney from burning themselves, caught fire; the men, in throwing the buckets over for water to put it out, lost them; consequently, the fire was not checked, and the captain immediately made for land, and got all the people, and crew, and luggage, safe ashore; but the vessel was almost entirely consumed.

Most

Explosion of Fire-damp.-On Monday forenoon last, a dreadful blast occurred at Harraton Row Pit, Newcastle, belonging to Mr Lambton, by which thirty-eight men and boys were killed. There were forty-one in the mine at the time, six of whom were brought to bank alive, but three of them died soon afterwards. The other three were. much injured, but it is expected will recover. Two of the sufferers were blown out of the shaft of the pit (eighty-two fathoms in depth) and their remains were found at some distance from the mouth. The head of one of them was separated from the body, and found fifty yards off in a corn-field; the back of the head of the other was also torn off, probably by striking against something in the shaft. The shaft continued for some minutes to emit a dense cloud of black smoke and coal dust, the smell of which remained on the herbage a mile and a half distant. from the pit for several hours after. of the sufferers lived at Painshaw. There are ten of the name of Hill,-grandfather, one of his sons, seven grandsons, and an adopted son. Seven widows are left: but the sufferers being mostly young, there are very few children. This dreadful accident was caused by the perverse obstinacy of a young man named John Moody, one of the hewers, who, in defiance of the orders of the overman, refused to use Sir H. Davy's lamp, and lighted a candle, which was twice put out by the workman whom he was to relieve; but be relighted it, by unscrewing the lamp, and thus sacrificed his own, and the lives of his companions.-On Wednesday afternoon, six more men, who were reinstating the air stoppings that had been swept away by the blast, were suffocated in the same mine, by the after-damp (carbonic acid gas) which commonly succeeds the explosion of hydrogenous gas. There were eight men altogether whom the fixed air seized; but on the bodies being got out on Thursday evening, two were alive, though but faint hopes were entertained of their recovery.

12. Prorogation of Parliament.-This day his Royal Highness went in state to Parliament, which he prorogued to the 25th August. At twenty minutes past two his Royal Highness reached the House, when a discharge of artillery took place. delivering his most gracious speech, the same ceremony took place, and his Royal Highness having returned to the royal carriage, the procession moved back to the Pa

lace in the order it had arrived. Another royal salute announced the departure of his Royal Highness for St James's. The multitude assembled was not so great as on former occasions; but it was certainly more orderly and respectable. His Royal Highness, to and from the House, was frequently cheered; and two or three attempts, during a profound silence, to excite a different feeling, were summarily prevented by the attendant officers,-namely, by a knock on the head. The windows of the houses by which the procession passed were thronged with elegant females, as were the avenues and every commanding situation in the neighbourhood of Westminster. The day was uncommonly fine, and every thing conconcluded without accident, and in the most perfect order.

Gold Coinage. The Gazette of Tuesday contains two Proclamations: the first describing the new forthcoming gold coin called Sovereigns, and commanding them to be received as 20s. pieces. The second states, that as much of the present gold coin in circulation is deficient in weight, none shall be taken in payment of less weight than as follows: Guineas, five penny-weights eight grains; half guineas, two penny-weights sixteen grains; quarter guineas, one penny-weight eight grains and that the seven shilling pieces, and the gold pieces called sovereigns, or 20s. pieces, more deficient in weight than the rates hereafter specified, viz. seven shilling pieces, one penny-weight eighteen grains; sovereigns, or 20s. pieces, five penny-weights two grains three quarters, be not allowed to be current, or pass in any payment whatsoever.

Extraordinary Experiment.-The experiment of hauling up a line-of-battle ship, by means of pulley, fully succeeded at Plymouth dock-yard, on Tuesday se'nnight; when the Kent, of 80 guns and 1694 tons, was, by this simple but most powerful mechanical instrument, drawn out of the water, and securely placed in a cradle for repair. The experiment was never before tried with a ship of greater tonnage than a 38 gun frigate.

19.—Administering unlawful Oaths. This day the trial of Andrew Mackinlay, cotton-weaver in Glasgow, accused as above stated, came on before the High Court of Justiciary. This case, from its first agitation, had excited a great degree of interest, from Mackinlay's having been indicted, along with William Edgar, teacher in Glasgow, three several times-the first as far back as the beginning of April. Two indictments had been quashed by the Court as irrelevant, a circumstance which was taken notice of in a very strong manner in Parliament; and it was upon the third, the relevancy of which had been declared by the Court yesterday, with the dissentient voice of Lord Gillies, that he was now brought to trial; and the result excited a still greater sensation throughout the

country. The first witness for the Crown, John Campbell, prisoner in Edinburgh Castle, being asked if he had received any reward or promise of reward, for being a witness, he answered, he had. Examined in what manner: he entered into a long statement, the substance of which is briefly as follows: While a prisoner in Glasgow, he was frequently visited by a Mr Salmon, who urged him to become a witness in this case, by telling him, that he knew six men who would swear that he (Campbell) took the oath; and if he did not provide for his safety in the way suggested," he was as sure to be hanged as he was in life;" but if he would become a witness, the Lord Advocate would come under any engagement to him. After he was removed to Edinburgh Castle, he had frequent conversations on the subject with Mr Home Drummond, Depute Advocate; and at length entered into a written engagement with him and the SolicitorGeneral to become a witness, on condition of being sent with his family to Prussia. This writing, the Sheriff of Edinburgh, who was present, refused to sign, and it was therefore destroyed, and a verbal engagement on the honour of the parties was accepted, which Campbell still considered as binding. After the examination of four other witnesses, none of whom recollected any thing respecting an oath, except one, who said he only recollected it from having read it in the newspapers, the Lord Advocate gave up the case, and the jury returned a verdict of Not Proven.The pannel was then dismissed from the bar; and on the Monday and Tuesday following, the prisoners confined in Edinburgh and Glasgow on similar charges were set at liberty.

24.-Trial of a Chimney-Sweeper for the Murder of his Apprentice.-On Tuesday, Joseph Rae and Robert Reid were brought before the High Court of Justiciary, charged with the murder of John Fraser, a boy of eleven years of age, an apprentice to Rae. We apprehend, that the heart-rending details of this case will go farther than any upon record, to accelerate the act of Parliament which is in contemplation to put an end to the inhuman practice of employing children in the sweeping of chimneys. The poor victim was described by one witness as a "fine boy," and by another as a 66 good boy." He was sent up a chimney in Albany Street, Edinburgh, at twelve o'clock, where he stuck fast; and at four a stonemason was set to work to release him by breaking the wall. The brutal master arrived, and stopt this humane attempt to relieve the little sufferer, threatening to blow him up the chimney with gunpowder, and sent for another sweep's boy, named Alison, and a set of ropes. The use made of them is thus related by a witness named Thomson :

“Reid took hold of the rope, and having

loosed it, gave Alison one end, and directed him to go up the chimney, saying, "do not go farther than his feet, and when you get there fasten it to his foot." Alison having fastened the rope, Reid desired him to come down; Reid took the rope and pulled, but did not bring down the boy; the rope broke; Alison was sent up again with the other end of the rope, which was fastened to the boy's foot; when Reid was pulling the rope, Rae said, "you have not the strength of a cat ;" he took the rope into his own hands, pulling as strong as he could. Having pulled about a quarter of an hour, Rae and Reid fastened the rope round a crow bar, which they applied to the wall as a lever, and both pulled with all their strength for about a quarter of an hour longer, when it broke. During this time witness heard the boy cry, and say, "My God Almighty!" Rae said, “if I had you here, I would God Almighty you." Witness thought the cries were in agony. The master of the house brought a new piece of rope, and Rae's brother spliced an eye in it. Reid expressed a wish to have it fastened on both thighs, to have greater purchase. Alison was sent up for this purpose, but came down and said he could not get it fastened. Rae then began to slap at the wall; after striking a long while at the wall, he got out a large stone; he then put in his head, and called to Fraser," Do you hear, you, sir:" but got no answer; he then put in his hands, and threw down deceased's breeches. He then came down from the ladder. At this time the prisoner Rae was in a state of perspiration; he sat down on the stool, and the master of the house gave him a dram. Witness did not hear Rae make any remarks as to the situation of the boy Fraser. Witness thinks, from Rae's appearance, that he knew the boy was dead. Reid's wife came to get her husband away to a job, and Rae went with him. This was between six and seven o'clock. Rae's brother enlarged the hole, but still could not get in. Witness then went in with difficulty. He found Fraser lying on his belly, with his hands stretched above his head. He was lying at a turn in the vent, and his head jammed at the head of the turn; had a towel about his head, and a shirt all about his neck. Witness tore off the shirt bit by bit, and threw it on the floor; then brought down the boy; there was a little heat in the body-got spirits and washed the boy's temple's, and went for Dr Poole, who came and applied a bellows, but in vain. Witness knew the deceased twelve months past in May-used to come to witness's house. Witness always gave him a piece of bread or a halfpenny; boy complained that his master used to starve him, strike him, and use him badly. Witness stopped in prisoner's house some time in May 1816. One Saturday night heard Rae's wife say, "You are done now; where's your ladder and materials ?-away." Whereupon Rae made

the deceased strip himself; boy applied to witness to save him. Witness asked Rae to forgive him.. Rae said, "if it were God Almighty himself speaking from the Heavens I would not forgive him." The boy was told to strip himself perfectly naked, and Rae beat him on the back with the single end of the sweep's ropes apparently with all his strength. The boy cried much; about ten o'clock at night, Rae took the boy to a back room, and made him go naked up and down the chimney till one o'clock on Sunday morning. Rae afterwards acknowledged that the ladder and materials were in the house all the time." Thomas Marwood (another witness) lived in Rae's house along with de. ceased; saw Rae tie deceased to a chest, gag his mouth with a stick, and beat him with ropes till the blood came, and then put saltpetre on him; has seen Rae make deceased eat the vilest offal.-The Jury, having retired for about an hour, returned a verdict of culpable homicide!The Lord Chief Justice then addressed Rae, and told him that his case approached the nearest to mur. der of any case in which a verdict of culpable homicide had been returned; and sentenced him to be transported beyond seas for 14 years.-The trial of Reid was put off till September.

Crossing the Irish Channel in a Balloon. -On Tuesday, at a quarter past one, Mr Saddler, jun. ascended in his large balloon from Portobello barracks, Dublin, and after experiencing various currents of air, with the extremes of heat and cold, descended in safety, at half past seven in the evening, in a corn field about a mile and a half to the southward of Holyhead. Thus, for the first time, has the perilous attempt of crossing the channel been accomplished by a youth not yet in his 22d year. During Mr Saddler's stay at Holyhead, he went to visit the new pier which is building there; and seeing the diving-bell, expressed his anxious desire to go down in it, exclaiming, "I am just come from the clouds, I should now wish to visit the deep ;" and so persevering was he in his request, that the bell was prepared, and he went down in a depth of several fathoms, where he remained under water a considerable length of time.

30.-Lord Castlereagh.-Sunday evening, as Lord Castlereagh was playing with a favourite dog of his lady's, at their seat at Footscray in Kent, the animal bit his hand, which on Monday became so much inflamed that Dr Bankhead was sent for. Dr Bankhead went to Footscray again yesterday, to visit Lord Castlereagh, whose hand has been severely lacerated, the sinews of the first and second fingers being separated, and the nail and top of the first finger being nearly torn off. Dr Bankhead, on Monday, ordered him to bed, and to be kept very quiet. The dog, a short time since, pinned the gardener and another manupina corner, when they were moving about after dark, and it was with difficulty he could be called off from them. The

dog was a present from Stutgard to Lady Castlereagh. It is satisfactory to learn that the dog is naturally fierce.

Trials of the Luddites, &c.-The Trials of the Luddites, and Huddersfield rioters, took place at the York assizes last week. All those against whom true bills were found have been acquitted. From the evidence

it appeared, that the riots were of a most alarming character, though the guilt of having been engaged in them is not fixed upon the persons who have stood their trials. The Judge exhorted the prisoners to beware of continuing in such dangerous courses; to which they answered, simultaneously, "We will, indeed, my Lord."
