We had on Fr:day a moll delightful Ball, at Nuckeß's Library, which atta6led by its celebrity and popularity fuels a peculiarly fafhionable fele6tion from Ramfgate and Margate, as to have eftabliihed its reputation as the refurt of the choicelt company in the Ifle of Thanet. It is needlefs to defcribe the decorations of a pro menade fo well known, therefore it will be fufficient t remark, that though we allow we had tome youth without beauty, yet there were beauties without paint, in fuch proportion as to afford a moll evincing proof of the efficacy of the marine air in reaming to its national luare That lovely hue which comes and flies As awe and fbanie alternate rife! There were upwards of 160 perfons of fafhion prefent—among whom we noticed The Duch& of Chmdos—Lord and Lady Teirimouth—.Lord and Lady and Mifs Henniker—Lord and LadyDungannon—Lady Bellamont ; Baronets Itobeck ; Counters Bentinck ; t.ord and Lady Radflock ; Lady l'ulteney ; Sir John and Lady Harrington ; Sir Hugh and Lady Matti , ; Ladies Sullivan, Perry!. and Cootes ; Mr. and Mrs. Dawkins; Mr. and Mrs. Jackfon ; Colonel and Mrs. Griffith; Mr. and Mrs Forfyth ; Milfes Shorcs,Waldegrave,fidens, Sullivans, Cochrane., Stafford!, Carleton!, Golfing., Wombwell!, Tuckers, Green, Burkett., Balls, Onflows, Halfords and Kellys--.

After the fpenclid entertainment in Merchants- Hall, Bri(ol, r,n Tuefday fe'nnight, the PRINCE fignifird his with to wilhdraw about eight o'clock.— The grace cup was then introduced, to which an old cullomary ceremony is attached. It was firft given to the Mayor, who prefented it to his Royal Ilighnefs. The PRINCE then taking off the canopy, exclaimed i• Profperity to the City of Briftol", to which the Mayor added, 44 Gorr Cave the Kum, and profperity to the illuftrious }lnure of Brunfwick," and then drank; the PRINCE and company repeating the fame ceremony, the parties 'landing during the time the cup pallid them down the table. The Ball and Supper given at Lewes Barracks, on Monday fe'nnight, by the Officers of the Royal Chethire Militia, was attended by all the ekgente: and fafhionables in the town and neighbourhood. The ball-room was tatlefully decorated, and the front of the Mefs houfe, exhibited, in variegated lamps, a gar beneath the PRINCE'S plume, fupported by the letters P. Ur. The Guard houfe, and other parts of the Barracks, were alfo illuminated on the occafion, which altogether produced a very pretty and pleating effect. About t5O fat down to a fumptuous topper ; after which the dancing was refumed, and kept up with great fpir it till a late hour, when the company retired, highly delighted with the entertainment they had received. His Royal Highnefs the Duke of CUMBERLAND wAs at Drury lane Theatre, on Tudday evening, and expreffed much delight at the warbling of the fair Ropta. Yellerday Mrs. JORDAN was a good deal better than (he was on the preceding evening. THEATRE, COVENT GARDSN.—Lan night a young lady, of the name of Sruses, who lately performed the part of Fanny Liberal, in The &boo! for Prejudice, at the Brighton theatre, with contiderable fuccefs, appeared in the fame charaeter before a London audience, and was upon the whole very favourably received. Her per fon is geAecl and her voice is pleat ing, refembling much, in fume of its tones, that of Mrs. H. SIDD )Ns, whole manner of ailing foe fcems to have fludied. White (peaking, her frame and I, features yielded implicit obedience to the fentiments of her author, and her conception of his text appear- ed correel ; but her paffive occupancy of the fcene was inanimate : much allowance, however, fhould be made for the novelty of her lunation. She was evi dently depreffed by diffidence t h roughout the whole of her performance of night ; but her exertions, rotwithftanding, gave favourable promife of future fuccefs.—MuttnEO's Old, and Lewes's rows; l iberal, FAWCETT'S Ephraim, EMERY'S Torklhireman, FARLEY'S Chevy Ghace, and Mrs. DAVENPORT'S Mill Liberal, were very pleafant performances; but Mifs BRUNTON was rather infipid in Marian, though it mutt be ad mitted that (he look'd, as the Play ittelf lays, " like an angel." In the Farce of The Turnpike Gal:, Mow DEN was uncommonly humorous in Crack, keeping the houfe -in a roar; and, in Henry Blunt, INCLEDON charmed the audience with his fine voice.—The houfe had to boalt of many names of falhion and re Creetability. A ferious accident had nearly happened at the Greenock theatre on Friday night. Whillt Mifs Waz.row was performing the charafter of Florimonda, in the new Pantomine of Valentine and Orion, having approached too near the candles placed at one of the wings, her robe caught fire, hut, by the timely affif. tance of one of the performers, was fortunately cx tingni(hed without doing her any very material harm. She fainted upon difcoveting her danger, but in a thort time sfer was able to go through the telt of her part, much to the fitistaCtion of the audience, and in a manner highly creditable to her as an aelrefs. The Officers of the naval yard and the guard(hip at Deal, are trying an experiment to weigh the fmall Hoop which foundered in the Down,( lately mentioned) laden with fore tor liamigate ; we hope that objefl may be attained, but it will be attended Ix itli tome difficulty; her contents compofing fo folid and dead a weight, may not be Is calf) , accompiilhed as itna. gined. The prefent lituation of the wreck renders it neceffary for Government to put this plan in execu tion for the farm of the (hips in the Downs, as her topmaft may be ken from the dune at low water, and, it fuffered to remain fo, might p eve &boar% e to many velfels patting through.

Tht match between the celebrated GULLEY (now the Champion of Enkland, by the forfeit of the Game Chicken) and Gascsow, took place yefterday, near the fix.mile bottom on the road from Newmatket, and it was one of the molt obainately contefted that ever was recorded. Colley, it will be remembered, was the unfuccefsful opponent of the Game Chicken a twelvemonth ago, in which contea he was fo tried, and proved fo game a man, that he eaablithed his fame as a borer of the fira rate. Gregfon was firft heard of as having fome preten lions to the jflic an, in confequence of a cafual ren. contre with Burke, the broiler, in Ynrk(hire, Come time since; and having improved in profellional fkill, he ventured to town, to difpute the claim of a champion with any man in England. He appears to have been formed in Nature's very mould for boxing ; in addition to which his Herculean flrength is proportionate to his height, which is fix feet two inches. In order to accommodate the horfe-racing, the combatants met at nine o'clock in the morning, in a fpacious ring, with their feconds, Crib and Cropley for Gulley, and Harry Lee and Richman for Greg. fon. At 5 minutes park 9 they fet to. Current betting was five to two on Gulley. THE BATTLE. Round r. Gregfon made play, by throwing in a left-handed hit, which was well flopped. After lomc cautious (parting, in order to be aware of each other's notions of attack, Gregfon hit his adverfary nightly, and threw forward his body with the. blow, when Gulley hit him down by a dextrous Knight blow under the temple. which drew blood. -3 tot and 7toa on Gulley. a. Gregfon again made play, and aimed Come tremendous blows, which Gulley avoided by getting away, and Gregfon in making another blow, fell on it, and he was hit in going down. 3. In attempting to hit Gulley right and left, both Gregfon's blows went over his adverfary's guard. Gulley received bins very coolly, and hit him down on his knees.-5 to ion Guilty. a. In this round, Gulley made a hit, which was awkwardly Bopped; but Gregfon put in one of confiderable force on his ad verfary's eye. They clofcd, and Gulley was thrown. S. Gregfon appeared encouraged by his faced, in the lift round, and be went in courageouny, but he was (topped right and left by his adverfary, which was visible in the fubfequent round. The combatants doled, and both fdl—Gulley underneath. Greglon bled freely. 6. Gregfon put in a dexterous blow on his adverfary's throat, and he bit him in the wind at the fame time, which Raggered Gulley. After fparring for Come time, Gregfon made a hit, and fell on his knees. 7. In this round Gulley returned the blow in the throat given in the laft round, and be at the fame moment received a knock down blow, put in under the temple, and he manifefted weaknefs. 8. In this round Gregfon, who had been baffled in moil of his hits, and was much akoad, attempted to give a Specimen of the Lancafhb c mode of boxing, or what is technically called purring, (running in with his head between the legs). Gulley, however, was aware of this offenfive mode, and be gave him Such a right- handed bit on the fide of the head, as culled a copious effufion of blood, yet Gregfon doled on him and threw him, by taking him in his arms—to t on Gulley. 9. Gulley hit his opponent a very Severe facer, and Gregfon deliberately laid hirnfelf down on his bands and knees. This a6t was fuppofed to be Something of the err, but Giegfon's fubfcquent conduft did away that impreffion. to. Gregfon went in much enraged, and mad: reverel Short hits —Gulley followed his attempts to hit by real blows, at once fcien tific and tremendous, and Gregfon fell extremely weak. He prc tented a difmal fpeetacle, Streaming with blood. As high odds as zoto one were offered on Gulley, and even betting, that Gregfon would not protradt the battle to 20 minutes, ax having expired ; but there were no takers. n. Gregon received a bit, and be immediately clofed, and gave Gulleyaheavyfall. • 12. Weaknefs began to be multi& in Gulley in this round, and it gave a ftrange turn to the betting. Gregfon received force fee ble hits, although feicutilically put in—but he knocked Gulley down by a moll tremendous blow on the forehead. 13. Gulley had the advantage again in this round by his fupe rior knowledge of boxing—but his hits were not forcible, from weaknefs. Gregfon gave a fpecimen o f t h e I . ancalhire mode of throwing, which Gulley mutt I ave feverely felt. 14. Gregfon put in another tremendous blow on Gulley's face, and he repeated it fkilfully with his left hand—after a fevere raUy, Gregfnn fal on his knees extremely weak, as was alto his ad verfary. • _ _ _ a r. After exchanging Come blows, thofe of Gregfon being the more forcible, from hia fuperior ftrength, be was knocked down. 16. Although Gulley's Mee bore woeful marks of the blows he had received, and one eye was doled, he had the heft of this rally • ing round, by ultimately hitting his opponent off his legs. 17. Gregfon fell on his blow. :8 and 19. Gulley had a flight advantage in tkefe two rounds, although he had a heavy fall in the latter. to. Gulley made an expert ftop, and with difficulty hit his ad verfary down. 21, 22, and 23. Gulley got more fret, and fairly beat his ad verfary from Mm in rallying, but not without receiving fome hard blows. Both were very weak, but 8 to t was betted on Galley, his bottom being known. 24. Thlt round mewed that both were dead beaten, for their blows were fo feeble, and the lots of blood was fo confidtrable, that each had difficulty in making fight. Gulley threw Gregfon for the Mit time—to to t on Gulley. 23. Here it was any body's battle, as it was reduced to the game and coullitution of the combatants who Otould win--they each were moll hidcoufly di‘figured, and fearcely able to get off the knees of their bottle-holders. Although the battle tailed eleven more rounds, it would be fupet Boons to detail them, as each had alternately the advantage, and betting, which had been 20 to one on Gulley, was reduced to even they suet each ocher like two MApltfx inert inehrired, and it was with the greateft difficulty that either could hold up his hands to flop or hit, and when the cloft d, which was generally by both falling together inof fenfively, the fritotls of each party expected the word ensug6 to come from both together. Guile!, in this state, was run the fa • vourite, a0.11.y an extraordinary eff"rt or nature, he gave Greg fen a blow in the thrmr, the 36th round, which prevented him from rifirg in time. He 1 ty in a Mdplefs Rate, unable to move fpe.tk for feveral minutes. Guilty, routed by victory, leaped with joy. It would be difficult to fay wilich wa: the moll b‘"lteil—fuch fpecia , .cs hirely were bcforc witr.clE.J; all other s.aVng4 were eotrzaratively a hntlifque. The reentids were as ',mob disc:gyred by blimtl as the combataLts. The battle Lilted ao minutes. R F.M ARNS. It was allowed, at the decilirn of ihe hatt!e. r•r l all hands, that one lo obainatelv cnntefted, of fin guinary a nature, and where Inch gatr:-. tc..• (hew 1 , , was never recordel. Thule. who had feen j Itttf‘n and B:n exhibit, and jacklin and tie 01.; ltc ffi which were the molt nbllina:elv cornefied on rec..r declared this to exceed all. Gtegf.n, altl'ongh tar from a good fighter, had a decided advantage i t firength and future, as before ebterved, which was adequate, with the Hide knowledge he pnffefred, ter Gulley's fupetior fkill, as there was a recirrocity in bottom. Gulley fought at a great diiidvantage againft a man of fuch fuperor ftrengrh and lenglh, fur he never could make a hit, until Gregfon chafe to begin, as the latter fpat red with his left arm fully extended, which was confiderably longer and more powerful than that of Gulley. Gregfon, after tile few firfi rounds, made lounging and defperate hits with his right hand, which nothing could refill, and it is thus accounted for how Gulley falai r cd f, mtiet injury. Gregtnn was generally abroad after he had made that favourite I:it, as 4!t qiticknefs of Gulley in returning it gave him a great advantage. Gulley fights wt.ll with both hands, and is a more expert boxer than when he contended with the Chicken..— They were conveyed to Newmarket after the battle. Gulley received a handfotne fuhicription purfe, and Gregfon was liberally rewarded as a game lofer. PEETHsH nut HUNT.—The annt'al meeting of ;he hunt commenced on Wednefday the 3oth ult. when the town experienced an influx of gent ee l comp an y ; among wham we noticed the Duke of ATHOLL , the Earl of MANSFIELD, Lord JAMES MURR AY , Lord KINNAIRD, the Hon. Mr. MACDONALD, Sir PATRICE MURRAY, &c. &C. 011 Thl111(11V and Friday there were hack races, which afforded tome fpolt; but the wetnefs of the weather prevented that difplay of company and equipages which we have witneffed on former occallons. A molt unfortunate accident happened on Friday :—The fcaffuld erected on the race courfe for the accommodation of the Stewards of the hunt, gave way, foon after the horfes had Ranted ; and all the fpeaators upon it, among whom were his Gritce the Duke of A rnot., and fome other perfons of diiiintaion, were precipitated to the ground. A fcene of great confusion was exhibited for fome minutes; but we are happy to (late, that only two perfons were ferioufly hurt. We underltand, the gentry of the hunt colleatd above 301. the fame evening for the relief of the fufferers. Balls' were held in the Glover's.hall on Wednefday, Thurfday, and Friday evenings, which were well attended. LA week a duel took place at Cove, between Lieutenant Hi LLs,fecond of his Majefly's (hip Dryad, and Lieutenant BURNIIT, !bird of the fame vefrel. They exchanged two (hot each, and were both wound. ed, but not dangeroully. Oltober dividends are now paying at England's great Bank, the door of which is dire fly oppofire J.

True Schemes walk, the Prizes paid immediately they are drawn, from the loweit Prize to the Grand Prize of 40,0001. A fingular ttial before the Coroner for the county of Dublin, occurred on the ad init. at Ifland bridge, on the body of P. M'Owen, of the Royal Artillery: J. Davis, Efq. fergeon to the Royal Artillery, de poled, that he was of opinion the deceafed came by his death in confequence of an inflammation of the bladder, occafioned by a fall or blow. This Gentle man's teflimony was corroborated by Surgeon Powell, of the fame regiment. J. M'Dowell, nteffman to the Artillery, faid the deceafed, with other foldiers, had been drinking at his canteen, and on fettling an ac. count, a difpute arofe refpeeting the quantity ferved to them ; the deceafed appeared in a quarrelfome mood and (truck the boy who attended the company ; the witnefs endeavoured to pacify him, and a corporal ordered him to his barracks, a fcuffie enfued, and they Itrucla each other ; witnefs could not afcertain who was the &It affailant, but depofed, that tt e corporal and deceafed came out to the top of a flight of nar row (tone Reps, without railing, and the latter fell down ; ire was taken up apparently lifelefs, but lan guithed for force days, and at length expired. When the deceafed fell, he exclaimed that he was killed : witnefs did not confider him to be drunk ; was of opinion that the corporal was merely in the aft of doing his duty, and that the quarrel was forced upon him by the deceafed.—Collins, a private, conceived the deceafed to have been drunk ; law him carried away, but knows Rot how he fell, bat it was about a quarter of an hour after the fcufile.—A corporal depofed, that the deceafed had (truck the corporal firft, and that they boxed two rounds, and then fat down, and in abotlt five minutes he concluded, from an outcry, that the deceafed had fallen down, but did not fee him.—Surgeon Blaney depofed, that the deceafed declared that his fall was occafioned by a blow and trip from the Corporal.—R. Waller, a Serjeant, depofed to a fimilar declaration made to him by the deceafed ; lie was not then under any ap. prehenfion of dying ; or, the following day he def. paired of recovery, but did not repeat the declara tion —E. Bloomer, a patient in the fame room with the deceafed, depokd, that on his approaching ►ution. he begged of Gco to forgive the Corporal, allec'ging th ,the believed that they were Lath equally in fault ; deceaied was then in violent apprehen:;on of death.—G. Nelfon, corporal, heat d the deceafed, after having been brought ir.to the barrack room, exclaim hen apparently drunk, 0 Cot vral R o u r k e , you have murdered me !" the Corporal was not then prelent.—The Jury requelled the Coroner would lay down the law to them, which he accordingly did.— The Ilia occupied the whole day, when the Jury returt:ecl a v.. z.ltet which exculpated the prefumed mut So cr, he was difcharged. 11l
