We have received the Gazda do Rio of' the 30th of July, but it contains no account of any political event. It is altogether filled with addresses from different provinces and towns of Brazil, congratu lating the Prince Regent on the measures already adopted by his government for securing the inde pendence of Brazil, and recommending the convo cation of a legislative assembly. As a specimen of the spirit in which these addresses are drawn up, we insert the following extract from that of the province of Parahiba do Norte, which was presented by the Minister Jose Bonifacio de Andrada e Silva, in the character of a Provincial Deputy : !. That a generous people, through the medium of me, their legitimate delegate, uneniniously deposit in the bands of your Royal Highness the authority of osauaging and directing their affairs, without being obliged to recur to the old world across thousands of leagues of ocean. They wish to obtaiu that po litical representation which a free and well-constituted people ought to possess, and to enjoy those privileges and preroga tives which are their inherent right: but they at the same time desire to remain subject to Don Joam VI. the august fattier of your Royal Highness, mud the constitutional King of Portugal, Braid, and the Algarve*, to whose generosity Bra zil is indebted for her emancipation and her rank as a kiugdom. With these views, they look. forward to the establishment, its the vast and rich continent of Brazil, of a centre of power and union, where favours and justice may be found without its being necessary to go to beg them in foreign and remote clinics. Confident in their Meliorable rights and in the justice with which they claim them, the people of Paratiiha solicit your Royal Highness to intercede with your august father, in order to procure his assent to their deaire; and that they may enjoy the right of possessing within their own country a complete delegation of the Royal pow. r in the august person of the heir of the throne, and a firm support of their fidelity in the bril liant virtues and liberalism of your Royal Highness. they natter themselves that the Corte* of Lisbon will not be so h ind and obstinate as to prefer the horrors of a ciiil war among brothers, to a union founded on the equality tad reci procity of interests and privileges." ..meraerserie A PICHORS.—The following clause, being the 18th, in the Salvage Act, passed on the 2d of July, 18'21, is important to the ship-owners, anti furnishes a caution to the manufacturers of anchors:— And be it further enacted, that all manufacturers of an *bora and kedge anchors, shall place Isis, her, or their name or Raines, together with a progressive number, and also the weight of the anchor, in legible characters upon the crown, and also upon the *hank under the stock of each anchor, which he, she to they, shall manufacture ; and shall also place his, her, or their name or na nes, together with a number, and also the weight of the kedge anchor, upon the crown, and also upon the shank near to the stork of every kedge anchor, which he, she, or they, shall manufacture ; and in use soy such manu facturer shall neglect to place such name, number, or weight, in the 'manner hereinbefore directed and required, every such person or persona st. offending shall, on conviction before any justice of the peace or magistrate, ou the oath of one creditable witness, or osi the confession of the party so offending, forfeit and pay any 811111 nut exceeding SI. nor L as than 40s. one half of which penalty shall be paid to the informer, and the other halt' to the poor of the pariah or township in which such offence shall be committed." It' all anchors were marked as thus directed by law, many would be recovered by the owners, which now go the lords of manors as droits, on account of the parties not being able to identify them : and more facility would he afforded it' ship-owners caus ed the name of the ship, and to what port she be longs, to be marked upon the anchor, with the weight and date of its manufacture. WESTMINSTER-HALL —The Hall is filled with workmen, and the works preparatory to the building of the new Law Courts are rapidly proceeding. Mr. Bankes, in the course of the last erasion of Parliament, moved for an account of the probable expense of building the new courts, which was pre sented by Mr Arbuthnot. It has ADCe been printed. The fol lowing is an extract from it:— " 13, Lincoln's Inn Fields, Dec. 24, 1521. " I am of opinion, that the expense of the works contemplated in the design referred to, exclusive of warming the different courts, and arse the fittings to the different courts, and the ap pendages thereto, will nut exceed one Imedred thousand pounds. " From the commencement of the work to the completion thereof will require three years, and the expenditure each year woad, it ih presumed, be nearly the me. (Signed) im 30IIN SOANE."

Of the former sort we are told that Lord Eld—'s I.ockit, and Mr. C—un—g's Peachum, in The Beggars Opera, were quite above all praise. Not having been behind the Scenes, or allowed to see who pulled the wires and made the Puppets dunce, we can only speak from report, and report says that the 10th Scene, Act 2, never had its match on any stage. According to the copy handed to us, some slight liberties, it will appear, were taken with the text, but wits acknowledge nu bounds, and as every verbal alteration is conducive to effect, such a li cense on such an occasion merits approbation rather than censure. PEACIIUM by Mr. C-on-g. and LOCUS by Lord Eld-a, with au amount book. Lark.—ln this affair, brother Prat:hum, are we agreed? Do you consent to go halves ? Prat. I 4.—We shall never fall out about ar. execution—but pray how stands our late account ? Luck.—Tit for tat, brother—it is all fair and clear now. i'aieh.—This deduction from the salaries of Government is very hard upon us. Unless people in employment are laud bet ter, 1 shall let other rogues live besides ourselves. Lork.—Perhaps, bristlier, the people are afraid these matt'rs of places and pensions may be carried too tar. We are treated too by them with contempt, as if our profession were nut reputable. Peaeh.—ln one respect, indeed our employment may be reckoned dishonest, because, like great Statesmen, we encourage those who betray their friends. Lock.—Such language, Brother. any where else (and you are apt to be rash (might turn to your prejudice.) Learn to be more guarded, I beg you. Ara—Ans happy are :re, dc.

Peach.—He that attacks my honour attacks my livelihood— and this usage, Sir, is not to be borne. Lark.—Since you provoke me to speak, I must tell you too, that Mrs. Lisboa charges you with defrauding her of a large sum of money. Pe:wk.—ls this language to me, Sirrah ? (eolkiriag each ether). Lock.—lf lam hanged, it shall be ridding the world of an arrant rogue. Peach.—This band shall do the office of the halter you deserve, and throttle you—you dog!

TITHES —ln March, 1789, a remarkable Nisi Prius cause was heard at the Court-house, Kilkenny, before a Mr. Justice Daquery and a respectable jury, in which the Rev. Mr. Stone, of Bells, in the county of Meath, was plaintiff, anti Svdenham Davis, Esq. of Johnsville, defe:idant. The action was brought to recover 2001. due tier tithes leased by the defendant to the plaintiff; as Rector of Kilmocahil, when, after, a trial of some length, the counsel for the defendant produced a Statute of Charles 1., by which it is enacted, that every rector shall reside 80 days in his parish every year, and preach 13 ser mons, otherwise he will not be entitled to the tithes or dues of his parish ; and as it was proved that the Rector was non-resident, the jury found a verdict for the defendant, with tid. costs. BREAD-MARING.—A machine has lately been introduced at Lausanne, in Switzerland, for making bread—that is, for preparing the fermentation of the dough, which seems to deserve imitation in other countries. It is simply a deal box, a foot in breadth and height, and two feet in length, placed on supports, by which it is turned by a handle Ilike the cylinder used for roasting coffee. One side of the box opens with a hinge to admit the dough, and the box is turned round. The lime requisite to produce fermentation depends on the tempe rature of the air; the quickness of the tinning, and other circum stances. But when the operation is performed, it is known by the shrill hissing of the air making its escape, which generally happens in half au hour. The haven is always extremely well raised ; perhaps too much sometimes. The labour is smiting, for the machine, Arch as is here described, may be turned by a child. No hooks, points, cross-burs, or any oilier contrivance, can be wanted without the box, to break or separate the mass of dough ; fur these operations are sufficiently effected by tbs adhesion of the dough to the side of the boa. if the maebine be made of greater length, and divided by cross partitions at the right angle to the bides, different kinds of dough may be pre• pared at the same time. One evident advantage of such a coo -1 tri•aoce is that bread manufactured in this way must be per • telly clean and free from accidental soiling. Philip, Earl Stanhope, whose dress always cor responded with the simplicity of his manners, was once pre• vented from going into the House of Peers by a door-keeper who was unacquainted Nish his person. Lone' Stanhope was resolved to get into the House without explaining who he was —and the door-keeper equally determined on his part, said to him " Holiest man, you have no business here. lionise man, you ran have no business in Misplace." I believe," replied his Lordship, " you are right, honest men can have no bu siness bete." PIRACY AND MURDER. 'From the Assurica Revd Gamete of Aug. 3.1 The tbllowing affidavit details a most horrid and diabolical act of piracy and murder. The circum stance has been laid before the Admiral, at which he expressed great abhorrence ; he stated that the first brig of war he conld get hold of should be stationed in the quarter where the piracy was committed ; and that he was in hopes that some of our cruisers would capture one of those scoundrels, to enable him to make an example : (COPY) JAMAICA, SS.—Personally appeared before me, one of his Majesty's Justices of the Peace, Hugh Hamilton, mariner, who being duly sworn, maketh oath and saitb, he sailed as mate on board the sloop Missing, William Smith, master, and had made three voyages from the port of Oracabessa, in this island, to St. Jago de Cuba ; and that in the return of the fourth voyage of the said sloop, about the beginning of the present month (but the deponent cannot name the day), were fallen in with by a long black schooner, with black mouldings (thee), the name of Emanuel marked on her stern, and commanded by a white man, with a mixed crew of colour and countries, among whom were English or Americans ; that atter bringing the sloop to, the privateer or pirate's boats came alongside, and took out the captain and hia son with all the crew, alai carried them on hoard of the schooner, leaving the sloop in possession of his people ; that be demanded of the captain his money or his life. The captain persisted that be had ..... le, but proffered him the cargo, which consisted of one hundred bar rels of Sour, and dO tierces of cornmeal (marked " S" within a diamond) ; that on the following day, not producing any money, a plank was run out in the starboard side of the priva teer, upon which be made Captain Smith walk, and that as he approached to the end, they tilted the plank, when be dropped into the sea, and there, while in the effort of swimming, the Coptain called for his musket and fired at him therewith, when he sunk and was seen no more. The rest of the crew were ironed below, with the exception of his suit, a boy of about fourteeu years of age, who witnessed the late of his father V% bile in the agony of tears and crying, the Captain took the linte-end of the musket and knocked the boy on the head, then took b.ni by the foot, and hove him overboard ; that on the day following this sad event, having previously taken out all the rigging, sails, Ike. of the sloop, he set her on fire and burnt her ; and on the saute day gave the crew, consisting of three others, and he, this deponent (having stripped us of every ar ticle but what we had on our backs), the jolly-boat, nab a bucket of water, and one biscuit each person, without a rum ps. e, which we asked for, but were refused by his saying " he would sooner give hell l—to be off, or be would sink them." Thus we parted, and in the afternoon of the same day were picked up by the schooner Mary Ann, belonging to Black River, and were lauded at Port Moran' on the ltith of July. 1822. (Signed) HUGH HAMILTON. Taken and sworn before me, in the presence of G. Maskey. Eaq: at Roselle Estate, in St. Thomas s in the East, this Mb day of July, 1822. (signed) R. FERGUSON. Mevs.—Tbe Captain of the pirate is a tall robust wan, of a swarthy complesion, Roman nose, lung visage, but cannot speak to any other viatica ar mole. About the middle of last month a auspicious-looking selusther. very probably the one alluded to above, was seen hovering uhf the east end ; and very shortly after she bsd disappeared, a vessel of war, supposed to be the Typos, lore is sight ; and the Bustard could not have been far ulh'at the time. It is to be regretted that she was not fallen in with by either of them, that some of these freebooters of the ocean might have been brooglit to public justice, to atone for such daring crimes, and be the means in some measure of deterring others from coutsouin in them. HYDRoPtioniA. On the 31st of Jury last, Mr. Symonds, of lligh-street, Boston, bad a dog whist' went mud, and before it was destroyed bit • wan and several animals. — The particulars of this et ent having become generally knows. ' the Magistrates of this borough, to prevent as much as possible the spreading of such a terrible disorder, issued hand-bills. and gave other public notice, requiring all persons to keep their dogs confined for the space of one mash, and directing the constables to shoot all dogs found at large, The time baring elapsed, and no mischief having appeared, it ors hoped that Mr. Symonds's dog was killed before the decease lied sari , ed at that c • • when the bile became infectious ; and the dread which the public at first experienced began to subside. sad gradually to escape recollection. Unfortunately, however, a sow which belonged to Mr. Kent, a cow-keeper of Skirbeck Quarter, was attacked with the disorder on Thursday last, and after having shown indubitable marks of hydrophobia, was destroyed. As the dog, during its paroxysm, got into the sty where the sow and soother pig was shut up, and bit butt (the last so much that it was destroyed directly), there eau be no doubt that the infection was thus communicated, though AI days had intervened. In the Police Court of Edinburgh a case of some importance to the public was decided on the 19(11 of this month. A lady, at an auction of what was stated to he a bankrupt stork of haberdashery goods, purchased two plaids for the Mil rat 21. Ss. 4d. These the auctioneer descrid es consisting of silk,•as being of full size, that they bad c ost each three guineas and were generally sold for three guineas and a half each. Un afterwards examiniug her purchase, the lady discovered that she had been imposed upon by a false description, the attached f r inges and body alone being o f silk, while the large figured ends and the figured borders were of cotton, and they were besides of a smaller size th an usnal: She therefore applied tor her money, and offered hack the goods, and the auction' o r the complying, she lodged a comp laint a g ainst him, p rice, hearing of which the Cow l ordered him to restore the p be getting back the voile. and he was also found liabl e iu the expenses. RuLUMATISM—A young man who resides in the neighbourhood of Carlisle w a s, for some time, so severely u afflicted with the rheausatinar, tbet be was under the n eceodell ssity of heeling recourse to the use of crut ches ; be wan recoluntr to apply young nettles to the parts affected ;and after continuing the use of them three or four times a day, for three days , lie was completely restored. Officers of the Excise visiled Bristol during tile last week, for the purpose of ra nsacking shops and wureliouse4s, in pursuit of foreign silks, &c. At one hi gh ghl lr h y resppecta plut shop in the silk tr ade the y seized a parcel isos, uader the pretence that the duty had uot been paid. The shop keeper% exhibited the in voke from an eminent London house; in vain. At the sam e sho p they made free with • quetalitY. nt Norwich crape, and actually carried it off, nibtaking i t lot foreign manufacture.
