The Duchess of YORK was. attended by Lady CULLEN SNIITH and Geeei el . 'Nevi'. The Royal Pally were received by the Marquis of STAFFORD; the Earl of AZIERDEEN, Earl Bnoweeow, Lord DUN. pies, she Right Honeureble CHARLES Lost% Sir GEORGE BE AUMONT ) . Sir THOMAS BERNARD, Sir AURA IIAM HUME, apd the Rev. W. H. Cent', Di iectors of the' Institution, who attended the Royal visitors through the Exhibition, hnd explained the different subjects. His Serene Highness appeared particularly gratified, and &Om hie marked attention to the best paintings, proved his judgment in the art. . The Royal Pair continued about an hour viewing the pictures, and then returned to York House, where they alighted from their-carriage. The Princess CHARLOTTE and Prince LEOPOLD •re• ° 'limed to Camelford House in their curricle. The Duchess of YORK followed in her carriage to dine with them • which caused her Royal Highness and his Serene Highness to be later in their attendance at Druty.lane Theatre than they intended : their inten-, Coes - having been reported in the course of the day,* attracted an excessively crowded House, and hun dreds could not gain admittance, who temained in Russell.street, where the concourse became so very great, that the street became impassable. DRURY LA NE THEATRE.--The House was crowded 10 an overflow in every part, long before the rising of the curtain, and the utmost impatience was manifes ted to hail the expected Illustrious Visitors, who (for the reasons above stated) did not arrive till a few mi nutes before nine o'clock. They were conducted by the Managers with the most marked attention e— matting was laid froth the steps of the carriage to the entrance of the Theatre ; Mr. DIRDIN, Mr. RAE, Mr. WARD, Mr. SPRING, and Mr. RORAUER were in readiness to receive them in full-dress Court-mour ning, and lighted them with wax lights into the PRINCE REGENTS private box. The- PRINCE and PRINCESS were attended by Baron HARDENBKOKE and General TAYLOR. At the time the Royal Pair en tered the box, the last act of the new play of Bertram had commenced ; and Mr. KEAN was in his most trying scene, but 'the performance ceased in conse quence for a time. , Her Royal Highness was dressed a in mourning, with chaplet of white roses and lillies round her head, and, in the most condescending man. ;ler, leant as forward as possible in the front of the box, which is very ill calculated for the audience to see any person in ir ; her Royal Consort stood in the front; on her left hand, dressed in mourning, with h 7 s Order on his left breast. The :iudience were enthu siastic in their applause. The wheL of the cempeny then appeered oe tl . .e stage, decorated wit:. white fa vours, and sung " Got, save the King" in a very su perior sta g l.i. Tile addititiaal stanzas sung in the mar • siege entertainment - were given on this occasion by • Mr. T. Ceram and Miss NASH. During te .. perfor mance Princess CHARLOTTE was ve•ating time with her fan on the front et the box. At the conclusion of the National Anthem her Royal Highness bowed very respecttully, and appeared sensible of the mat ked attention shewn her. In the-course of the evening we were very sorry to notice the tumult that pre *ailed, arising from the dissatisfaction of a great pate of the audience being unable to see the Illustrious Pair. The noise was so great that the singers were : literally hissed off while singing “. Rule Britannia," • and nearly the first act of the Luce was passed in dumb show. The wish of the audience, as far as it could be ascertained amid the uproar, seemed to be • that the Illustrious visitors should remove to one of the stage boxes, that they might enjoy a better view of their persons, and this appears to have been un derstood by them, as they rose, came to the front of their box, and repeatedly saluted the audience, which restored quiet, and the Farce, from that time, went on without farther interruption. 'At the close of the entertainment, her Royal Highness respectfully bent forward, bowed repeatedly, and retired amidst the general applause of the audience. CLAREMONT, SURREY. .-- The Commissioners di Woods and Forests have finally determined to pur chase this Estate for the residence of the PRINCESS CHARLOTTE and the PRINCE or Cosonan. The price is understood to be se6.9,ooo—the bargain was 'con cluded on Friday evening at Esher, where Surveyors, on the part of the Commissioners, and of CHARLES Rosa ELLIS, Esq. the proprietor, had been employed for several days before : £71,000 are said to have been required for it. Mr. ECUs gave for the Estate Ammo, but his purchase included several valinible farms, saich - he still retains. In his fc;rtunate bar gain the house and grounds were estimated at less than halt that sum. The Park consists of three bun. ared acres, ornamented with a profusion of stately timber, and the illustrious couple are to have with it , the Mantis of Esher and Milbourne, with a hobse on the edge of the Park, which was occupied by the late Mr. Justice HARDING. Five of the farms adjoining the Park, being well stocked with game, are to be leased by Mr. ales to the PRINCE op Coaouxw. Yesterday morning, about nine o'clock, her MA JIM and the PRINCESSES left the Queen's Palace for Windsor, and returned to London in the evening. The Duchess of C.IMBERLAND is indisposed, and has been confined to the house for several days. *Saturday night last, as the Earl and Countess of Arm:sawn( were proceeding to the Opera, their car . riage run over a poor old man, by which accident he had his, leg broken in a s!locitng manner. The coach man instantly stopped, and his Lordship biligap. - prised of the accident , ordered that the man might • be conveyed in a coach to St. George's Hospital, and every attention paid him. The coachman called die next morning, and gave l:im a guinea on his own necount. The poor man has had the bones set, and is likely to do well. His Lordship sends daily to kao* • ow he is. • • "I'ittcadilly, from the cemmencement of flee Green 4 7' ritrk to Hyde lark Gat!, is about to be paved with cast iron. which is now preparing attioundry in Wales. torKorzumieraz; 0•:* 01. gon r . COURT Or RING'S BENCH, MAY a "`_ JUDGMENTS. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL prayed the judgment of the Court on Basil Good', Esq. The defendant, it appeared, had been tried and convicted at the late Assizes for Warwick, on an information charging flint with having, in his character of Commissioner and Collector of Land . and Assessed Taxes for the City,of Coventry, fabricated certain tickets, charging Maria Harris, and others, different sums of money for windows, &c. 'which sums he did not afterwards account to the Receiver-General for in his accounts. The affidavits of J. jeatterworth, Esq. M.P. Colo nel Bird, and vaiioultrither respectable persons, were put in and read, giving the defendant a most excel lent character. fitr. Serjeant VAUGHAN and Mr. READER, were heard in mitigation, and the ATTORNEY-GENERAL and Mr. CLARK on the part of the Crown. The Court ordered the defendant to stand commit ted to the custody of the Marshal till Friday next, then to be brought up to receive judgment. Farrell and Moriarte, convicted at the Assizes at Kent of an assault upon T. Exmore and 'J. Grimes, a corporal and private, and rescuing from their custody a deserte r, named I'. Geary, were brought up to receive the judgment of the Court. It appeared that the prosecutors were severely wounded in the scuffle; and the Court, considering all the cir cumstAnces, sentenced the defendants to be impriso ned, Farrell for six months, and Moriarte for two months, in Maidstone Gaol. Thomas Wa !ford, convicted before Lord ELLENAO. ROUGH, was sentenced to eight months imprisonment, fcc . having King's stores in his possession. Jaccb Randall was sentenced to three months im prisonment in Dorset gaol, for assaulting a Revenue Officer. Mr. Serjeant Lens moved the judgment of the Court against Henr y . Pinned, M.D. who was convic ted at Cornwall Lent Assizes, of an assault upon John Ayreton Paris, another M.D. The prosecutor was Secretary of a Geological Society, at Penzance, of which the defendant was a Member, and having published a lis: of the Society, he had styled the de fendant an apothecary, instead of a Doctor of Me dicine : this occasioned a misunderstanding, which terminated in the assault in question. The defendant was sentenced to pay a fine of £5, and find security for his peaceable behaviour for three years, Himself in £lOO, and two sureties in £5O each. HENTINCK V. BTANIFORTH. This was a question as to the right of the plaintiff to recover back the premium paid on a policy of in. surance underwritten by the defendant. The point reserved was, Whether the voyage, which was a voy. age from Riga to this Country, was a legal one ? The voyage, it appeared, was of a description to re quire a licence, and an order was accordingly trans mitted by Vie panics interested at Riga to their agent in this country to procure a licence. The agent ac cordingly procured a licence, dated the 7th of Octo. her, 1814, the ship having commenced her voyage on the 3d of October,-..four days previous to the date of the licence. The vessel being lost on her passage borne, the plaintiff brought an action against the un derwriters, and obtained a verdict for a retprn of premium. The defendant moved to sci. tt,ts Ircatlist aside, on the grounds that the ship having sailed from Riga before the licence was obtained in this country, the voyage was an illegal one.' The Court this day gave judgment, and decided, that it was clear there was no intention on the part of the plaintiffs to commit any fraud. They had writ. ten for a licence, and were ignorant that one had not been procured previous to the 3d of October, the day on which the ship sailed; and, therefore, that the verdict for a morn of premium ought to stand. Verdict affirmed. COCKPIT, MAY se. Frederick, MEYER Master.— This Russian ship sailed from London in June, 1813, with a cargo of alum, copperas, apparel, &c. for the isle of Mayo, where she disposed of the apparel, took on board a quantity of• salt, and proceeded for St. Bartholo mew's, and was seized and taken at the distance of about a mile and a half from the island, on the Ist of August, 1813, by the Matchless privateer, and car- I tied to Antigua, where she was condemned. A claim was given •ty the Master in the Court below, for property, as belonging to a Russian subject ; also a claim in this Court by the Swedish Consul, being seised within Zwedish territory. Their Lordships directed further proof. The Baltic Trader, Snow Master.—This Ameri can ship, laden with flour, was seized at Alexandria, and condemned at Bermuda.—Judgment suspended. Gertrodis la Preciosa, TOREN Masten—This ship, under Spanish colours, with slaves and past of her outward cargo on board, in the prosecution of a voy age from Old Calabar to Havannah, was captured on the 9th of June, 1814, by the Creole and Asttea, and carried into Sierra Leone, where the same were con: demned. Their Lordships affirmed the sentence, ex cept as to that part of the cargo claimed by the Malk, ter, which they refused. QUREN•SQVARZo-FEMAiN SWINDLNLYeSteIIiaIy Miss King was again brought up, when Mr. Jenne, a shoemaker, of Bishopsgate-street , detailed the m ode in which she applied to his wife, in a similar manner she had to other complainants, and_cagaged lodgings at a guinea a week, and after continuing there for a shut time, she decamped, without paying for any thing she had. Mr. Haynes, a toyman, of Dart mouth-street, Westminster, stated, that she, by a si milar story, obtained an apartment in his house at one guinea and a half per week, and after running up a bill of ses she decamped. Both these Gentle men, however, stated, that although various articles of their property was at her mercy, they had not missed any thing.—She was again remanded. HATTON GARDM—Yesterday Wens Mellor, foot man to Lady Warburton, was brought up on a war rant, and examined before R. Ramisroau, Esq. the Sitting Magistrate, charged with committing a most violent and wanton assault on General Sir Montague Burgoyne, on Thursday, last, in 'comiag five the Queen's Drawing-room.

The following case of horrid and unprovoked murder will coati en for trial next Session of the Calcutta Court of Circuit : Hubboo Meer, a Mahometan Ryol, bad.a quarrel with another boy, nearly of his own age (eighteen) son of one Nayan Pal ; blows ensued, and the latter was severely beaten. He com plained at the once of the Zumeenda ; and it appearing, on In vestigation, that young Hubboo Meer was in the wrong,ite was dealt with according to the mildest punishment, that of pulling hie ears. Irritated at this indignity, the revengeful youth swore to be avenged on some of the family. Soon after, observing a younger son of Nayan Pal, a boy of IS years of age, feeding his father's cattle on the plain adjoining the village, he slily moved up behind bins, and, baring pulled forth an axe, previously conceited foe the purpose under his cloth, hit him unawares a violent Mow on the neck. This having brought him to .the ground,the wretch laid hold of him firmly until he had chopped his head Inins his body. Having thrown the head into a ditch, be hid binvelf, under the roof of a house, where, however, he did not long re main concealed ; for some boys h aving from a distance seen him perpetrate the deed, gave information to the parents of the den ceased, who forthwith dragged hint from his hiding place. We are about to record a revolting crime, almost surpassing, is unnatural cruelty, the blackest transactions of the human Ithrr. It occurred on the i tab October, at-Kidderpore, in the person of ardendernatt's Rliiiimutgar. This man, having received instruc tions front his master to make ready, to go up the country, went to the house of his father-in law, and ordered his wile to prepare herself to leave Calcutta. The woman urged she was at present comfortably situate under the protection of her lather and mother, and that she could nut think of quitting her present place of abode, without a prospect of being elsewhere comfortably seated. the husband insisted upon unconditional compliance; and, on her refusal to obey him, he seized an axe and an English table knife, and having struck tier a desperate blow across the had with the hatchet, stabbed her in several places with the knife ; alter which, he Sew to the mother of the unhappy woman, and wounded her in the same inhuman manner. His bloody purposes were bat too well fulfilled, for the unhappy victims of his brutal rage died almost immediately. His wile expired while her wounds were sewing up, and her mother only lived long enough to declare that her son-in-law was the perpetrator of the deed. He was instantly secured, and handed over to the proper officer, to take his trial at the Sessions of the following Circuit. Eureeboolah, the tuuto deter, was afterwards tried and banged, without *hewing the least signs of repentance. THE NIGER. • This noble river is still a subject to which the atten tion of geographers is particularly directed. The im mense chasm that existed in all the maps of Africa has been to a certain degree filled up by the labours of Mungo Park ; but much remains to be yet accom plished to obtain further information of countries, many of which are only imperfectly known, and their relative positions not clearly defined. No part of the world seems to be so little understood as the interior of Africa : hypothesis after hypothesis is started, and all, though supposed correct, differing materially with each other. To the many that have already appeared the following may be added, the correctness of which can only be developed by time : A gentleman who has resided, at different intervals, a considerable time at the settlement of Lagos, -and other stations on the African coast in the bight of Benin, states, that the Haoussa traders, who, previous to the abolition of the Slave Trade, were continually to be mtt with at Lagos, still come down to that mart, though in smaller bodies. The result of his frequent communications with them respecting the journey to their own country, and the negro nations titieugir which it lay, has strongly porta:Med him of the practicability of a body of Europeans penetiging-i in that direction to the Niger, with proper preettu dons, under the protection of the Haoussa merchants, and of ensuring their safe return by certain arrange ments to be made between the adventurers them selves (countenanced by the authority of the Go vernors of the neighbouring forts), their Haoussa conductors, and the settled native traders on the, coast. The principal negro nation on the journey are the Joos, a powerful and not indisposed people ;' and, nearer the coast, (avoiding the Dahomey.ter ritories) the Anagoos and the Mabee: ; the latter of whom are stattd to be an industrious people and Rood planters. Cowries (the circulating medium of the country) alone would be necessary for sustenance or presents during the whole of the journey, But it is principally a reference to the nature of the country which lies between the coast and Haoussa, that gives the probability of the attempt succeeding. The traders describe their journey to the coast as oc cupying between three and four months, which is as much time as they require for the journey from Haonssa to the Gambia ; the difficulties and delays. incidental to the former journey counterbalancing its shorter distance. These difficulties are invariably described as resulting from the numerous rivers, mo tosses, and large lakes, which intersect the countries between Haoussa and the coast : *me of these lakes are crossed by the traders on rafts of a large size, ca. pable of transporting many passengers and - much merchandize at one trip ; and the travellers are often detained a considerable time, until a sufficiently large -freight of passengers and goods happen to be collected. On no occasion does the gentleman to whtSm this in formation has been given by the Haoussa merchants recollect that they have spoken of any range of moan• tails: they had to cross in coming down from their own country, nor does he entertain any idea that such range exists in that direction, as the traders invariably spoke only of rasrarres and other impediments from water. These statements appear to remove some of the difficulties which have been objected to the prolonga tion of the Niger to the southward, either to the king dom of Congo or .the gulph of Guinea, in consequence of the supposed barrier of the mountains of the Moon. The details are, however, rather too vague to sup port any argument in favour of either of the particu lar systems alluded to respecting the termination of the Niger, 'which has hitherto caused various conjec tures, but are now in train of being removed by the exertions of the two expeditions that have been under taken. We have observed, is a publication which is inter esting to every family, called the Gazette of Health of this month, published. by the celebrated Dr. Reece, of Piccadilly, the independent and liberal manna in which he speaks of Dr. COOPER'S Medical Board, Jogs him credit. We coincide with him as to the respect;. bility of that great concern. The Board is composed dl eminent Phy'sicians, with Dr. Cooper at their head send several Surgeons, Members of the Royal College in Londcn and Edinburgh, and private practitioners attend with their patients for advice. It is an old adage, "Among CoaLseUon there ma be witilow..".
