Friday night a boat belonging to the Biwa ea, bound to Madras, in going off to that ship, at Ports mouth, from some unknown cause (it is believed the men were intoxicated) upset, when the chief- w mate of the BULIOtR, a gentleman (passenger), who as going out to take the command of a country ship, and four men (all.that were in the boat), were unfor tunately drowned. • Thursday last, the Magistrates issued i warrant 'Mr the arrest of certain individuals, delegates from neighbouring towns, who had assembled at the Sir Sidney Smith public-house, in Port street, Manchester.

Upon the per son of'Naaman Carter was found a quantity of bul lets, and a piece of flint. OLDHAM INQUEST.—The Jury .who were impark. neled on the celebrated Inquest on John Lees, of Old ham, being very properly desirous of having the business determined according to the law, on Wed nesday transmitted, by two of their body, a request to the Coroner, to afford them an opportunity of de livering their verdict. In this they state that the original writ is still in force, and that, therefore, the duty of the Coroner will not be completed until he resume and conclude the Inquest. The letter was signed by seven ; the other five, being publicans, have refused, from motives of personal interest, although they have expressed a wish to be enabled to give their opinion in the formal manner of the law.— Should the Coroner refuse compliance with their wishes, we understand that they intend to publish their opinion from the evidence they have already heard.—Manchester Observer. There was a parading of the effigy of a manufac turer through the public streets of Nottingham on Tuesday last, for lowering the prices of his work people ; hut as soon as the circumstance became known to the Mayor and Magistrates, orders were given to seize the offensive instrument, which was immediately carried into effect by the police officers, when the actors in the disgraceful scene dispersed. An application has been made to the Mayor of . Leeds, and through him to the Overseers, for a re turn of the houses of Leeds, under the rent of £lO a year ; of those from £lO to EIS : from £ls to £2O ;1 and from £2O upwards, with a view to some ulterior .proceeding upon Lord Join/ RUSSELL'S motion, for conferring the Parliamentary elective franchise on that place. • In dic t'f eauday Ism, atm= Attains broke into the Bank of Messrs.

The Bill for the relief of Insolvent Debtors, pro posed by Lord ALTHORP, has been printed by order of the House of Commons. It prohibits the officers of the Court from taking gratuities.

Examiners are to be appointed by the Commissioner; they are authorised to compel the attendance of wit nesses', and are empowered to allow or disallow claims of creditors, subject, however, to an appeal to the Commissioners.

There was 'an excellent take of hen ings bet*een the Cumbrae Isles and Pert Crawford, the week be fore last ; fifty barrels were cured at Milport. Lath Saturday sennight, towards the close of the twilight. nine boats from Largs had something like a wiractt•l low draught. In the space of ten minutes all the' nets were filled ; and one of the boats nearly sunk by the extraordinary load. The fishers hastened ashord' in an ecstacy of joy, and advertised the herrings through the town at 2s. per hundred. This proved a very seasonable relief to many a needy person, and 1 1 what remained unsold, were carried off to Greenock; and other places, early on Monday. A letter from Kingston, (Jamaica), dated October 2.5, says-- ,, Rear-Admiral Sir H. POPHAM, K.C.R. in consequence of his recent promotion, changed his flag on Saturday last, from blue to red. The ctn. , tomary salutes were fired on the occasion. We re-' Bret to learn, from the Bermudas, that a bilious remit. tent fever had broken out in those Islands, and had' swept off several of the inhabitants, as well as sol diers and seamen. The medical practitioners Of St. George's had almost all become sick themselves, or exhausted, by their arduous duties, in consequence of which Doctors GILREHT and COOK had tendered their services to visit the sick, notwithstanding that they had patients, in their respective quarters of the counti y, to attend, as we l l as in St. George s." PIKES FOUND IN. SCOTLAND! From Scotland we have to-day received the follow: ing letter, which shewi the activity of the Police in that quarter, and their great success in detecting pikes and other formidable weapons, 'collected for the most alarming purposes : " GLASGOW, DECEMBER 23. " There are some reports of a few pikes having been found ; but I believe they are old pikes, that formerly belonged to the Trades (or Grocers') Batta lion of Volunteers, whose arms had been carelessly collected when that corps was disembodied. *I saw two of them that were traced to that source, and there were only three or four more found, which I believe originated in the same way. " On Monday, two of the Hussars, riding at the West end d Paisley, had a quarrel with s( , me men on the road ; they drew their swords and u ounded them, one of them severely There were various re 7 ports in Glasgow about it ; but so far as I learn, the soldiers had insulted the men, and one of them wai sent to head-quarters, handcu ffed,i under a - guard, by his Officer, and the prisoners were released. There was no Meeting of the Radicals on Moro' day, nor is any more expected." Mr. KINI.OOH, who has been outlawed for not air . . pearing to take his trial for sedition, possesses, it is said, a landed estate in the county of Forfar, the rental of which is worth t3ooo.—Mr. KINLOCH, we understand, left Edinburgh, fbr the Continent, on Tuesday morning. It was Kilsyth, to Which the Loan PaEstr.Rwr of Scotland lately made some allusion, and not Kit; barchan, as was erroneously stated. • The Booksellers, both of Edinburgh and Dublin; have forwarded Petitions against the new Libel Bill. The linen manufacture in Aberdeen, duririg the present year, is said to have exceeded the amount of the former one by nearly 800,000 yards; while the spinning of yarn, and the making of threads of A much improved quality, as well as the manufacture of woollen and cotton goods, have been carried on with such activity, that all description of labourers have been earning wages, by which they have been enabled to live with, comfort. DEPOT OF PIKES FOUND IN TIM CITY!—The City 1 2,2 S thrown into great agitation on Friday last, by wild reports respecting the finding of arms. It was whispered on the Exchange, that a large depot of pikes had been found ; that the owner of a shop near Cornhill was selling them, complete with the head, at a cheap rate, and inviting the Public to buy in stantly ;-=‘, that a great day was at hand." Some runners of the Police-office, alarmed at these reports, proceeded to the Mansion-house, and, with a posse of constables, went to the suspected place. After a 'serious investigation and search, and alarming the inmates, no dreadful weapons were found ; while staring about, and deliberating how to proceed, a Gentleman from the crowd asked what was wron g ? 'on being told of the circumstance, he, to the great amusement of the mob, explained the whole :—that the shop searched was a very celebrated fishmonger's g that he certainly was selling pikes cheap, and that the great day alluded to was Christmas! The officers retired, followed by the scoffs and laughter of a great number of boys, who had been collected during this alarming search! DticovEnv SHIPS.—No information, we uncle... s tand, has been received at the Admiralty from Lieutenant PARRY, and no doubt any longer exists o f his remaining out during the winter. • The last laccount of the HECLA and GRIPER is derived from one l of the whalers,.who saw them when about a day's 4 sail from the entrance into Sir James Lancaster's Sound. It is strongly conjectured Lieut. PARRY has passed through Lancaster Sound, as it is understood; in the event of his meeting any impediment to such proceeding, he was to make the best of his way to Sir Thomas Smith's Sound ; and had he been com pelled to adopt this latter measure, there is every pro. bability that he must have been seen or heard of by some of the whalers which were in Baffin's Bay. The Reading World are obviously under great obligations to the Periodical Press, in the Series of • new Novels, called, The Circulating Library, which promises to present a monthly et%ibition of supe. rior novelties, in this line of composition ; while The Monthly Journal y' New Voyages and Travels pre sents an inexhaustible supply of interesting mate- - rials, in another line. Both will continue to supply every desirable novelty in the two important branches of Literature, consisting of Fiction and Fact. " HUNTING.
