The oiling season drawing to a 'close, and many cif the members being about to depart for their country re sidences, the Falcon, Commodore Lord YArtsortouoir, f came into Cowes harbotir on t aturday, the 18th inst. preparatory to a Ball his LOrdship proposed giving on= Monday, to the Yacht Members and their friends. Sue day, his Lordship invited the Meribers lying in Cowes Roads to dinner, , who, with their friend . §, amounted to tweniy-two. The evening proved exceedingly wet, which was the occasion of many Ladies despairing of a fine evening for the Ball the next night; a favourable change, however t. taking place, from a shift of wind to the' N.W. the weather cleared, and produced a fine evening. The Falcon was coveted with an awning, and deco rated in the interior with colours, and the signal flags of the Club, having the distinguishing flag at the stem, with the letiers It. Y. C. and the Crown and foul An chor (permitted to be worn by the Lords of the Admi ralty), ornamented with laurels and flowers, brilliantly illuminated, which, reflecting from the brass-work of belaying pins, &c. had a most striking effect. At ten o'clock, P.m. Lord YARBOROUOff received the company; but, from the numerous assemblage, the boats did not cease to board the yacht till nearly twelve o'clock. Country dances, quadrilles, and &inch reels, were immediately formed, extending the whole length of one side of the yacht's deck. At two o'clock, A. 1.5. the supper was announced, when the guests descended to the three cabins—the tables of which presented a most sumptuous display of every delicacy that fancy could imagine, consisting of creams, jellies, preserves, Chani pagne, Frontiniac, and other French wines, and an un usual supply of particularly fine pines, grapes, and other fruit. On withdrawing from this banquet, dancing re commenced, and was kept up with the highest spirit and enjoyment till four, A. m. when the boats assembled round the Falcon, to convey the visitors to their respec tive homes; and many of the boats, fitted up astbndo , - las, with lamps, had a most novel and,pleasing appoofft. r anee. About It o'clock on Tuesday the,broad .pendent was struck, and the distinguishing burgee of the Club hoisted, and Lord YARBOKouGH went ashore. There were 300 persons present s and among the cow • pant were— - Lord Willoughby de Broke; Ford and Lady Grantham; Mlssei Robinson; Lady William and Mr. Seymour; Lady Elizabeth and Miss Palk; Lord Francis Gower; Mr. and Lady Charlotte Gre vile ; Mr. and Lady' Caroline Morant ; Hon.

Mr. Graham was to have made his thirteenth grand ascent at Worcester, on Saturday. For thirty years there had been no balloon ascent in that part of the country ; a generation had consequently sprung up, to whom the sight was a novelty replete with interest. — The scene of action was a bowling green at the ex tremity of the town, on the Birmingham road, well adapted in every respect for such a purpose. At the 'early hour of twelve o'clock, crowds were moving to the spot, and up to three or four, there seemed to be no decrease in the numbers that continued to arrive. The ground upon which the inflation was taking place could not at this time contain less than two thousand people, who had each paid half-a-crown for their ad mission. Some gardens which overlooked the scene were also well occupied by persons who had paid for their entrance upon a lower scale. The streets and grounds immediately adjoining the premises were com pletely thronged, and some green hills, .at the distance of about half a mile, presented a beautiful appearance, from the thousands which covered . their summits. The time advanced, and the balloon' was only about half filled, and making no perceptible progress. At five o'clock, some impatience was manifested by the crowd, and it was then ascertained that the whole power of the gas-works bad been put on. The aeronaut now found that it was impossible to have the balloon suffi ciently inflated by day-light to support his weight. Mrs. Graham, supposing its buoyant power equal to bear her, came forward in the most intrepid manner, and declared her determination to ascend alone. • She went on to the stage, and the balloon was disengaged from the ropes, and fastened to the car. With these prepa- , rations, the tumult in the crowd had been increasing , . and several Gentlemen insisted upon Mrs. - Graham s abandoning her intention. She, however, got into the car, and entreated her husband to detach the balloon, from the cords. Her request was complied with, and the experiment proved that no ascent whatever could ' take place, unless the machine were suffered to depart by itself. When this became apparent to the crowd, the 'clamour increased on all sides, and personal danger was to be apprehended for the r arfies who had caused the ,iisappointment. Some respectable people inter• fered, and appeased the majority, by stating that:there should be a free ascent on Monday. The country peorle, many of whom had Coyne thirty miles from their homes ; continued to be greatly.esasperated, and nothing but the determined conduct of the men tar ' ployed to keep the ground, prevented serious mischief.) *" . OLIDBAILEY. • . . Yesterday, :Twin rowdy, aged 19, - was found Galley upon two Indictments, charging him with ..havizig embezzled two aunts of '413 and X 37, which h e had rece i ve d on account of his master, James 'Thomas Hathaway, an ostrich-feather-dresser.—The Re counts sentenced him to be transported for fourteen yeari. Muses &Amin was indicted for having .assaulted Matthew Poyn der, on the King's highway, and attempting to rob him.—The pri. soner, in his defence, said that the prosecutor bad pushed against him violently, in consequence of which fie struck him, but he had no intention of robbing hirit.—.Thelury found the prisoner Guilty, and the Reef:moms sentenced. him to be transported for life. Samuel Lloyd was charged, upon six indictments, with having embezzled several sums of money, to the amount of set ten, the property of hid masters, Messrs. Goding and Broadwood, the brewers. The prisoner pleaded " Guilty' to aU the indictments. The RECOILDZIt sentenced him to be transported for fourteen years. The prisoner has a wife and family, and bad been in the service of Messrs. Goding and Co. between four and five years. Joseph Trhise, Jars Osborne, and Charlotte Osborne, his wife, were indicted for stealing £75 trim theirerion of George Folwood.— A shopkeeper proved the female prisoner. had changed a £3 note at his shop, subsequent to the robbery.. The note being produced, the prosecutor identified it as one of those of which he had been robbed. Several witnesses spoke hi fivour of the prisoners' cha racter.—The Jury returned a verdict of XL* guilt!). Milian Dawson, a respectable-looking yoing man, aged twenty two, was capitally indicted for stealing a quantity of plate from the dwelling-house of A. S. Gordon, Esq. his, master, of Ely-place, Holborn. The prisoner was his confidential servant.—(This case was fully stated in our Police Report, about a week since).—Evl ,dence having been heard, the Jury found the prisoner Guilty of stealing, but not in the dwelling-house. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, SEPT. '2l. J' Anderson was indicted on three several Charges of pot•stealing in one day. He was convicted on two of then, and senteticed'to three months' imprisonment and hard labour. • J. Waits was'convitted of stealing buns in the parish of St. Giles. The prisoner was a most incorrigible thief, of which he appeared to be duly sensible•; for his defence was, that he might be favoured either with transportation or hanging, as he despaired of an honest lieelihood in this country. Sentence—one month's im prisonment. CaMeriite Macarthy was convicted of stealing a peck of•coals from a barge, and sentenced to seven days' im prisciment. She appeared duly sensible of the Chair man's lenity, and bade him adieu, saying, a Mdy;Gori bless your honour all the days hnd nights of your life— mornings and all r J. Barry and Ellen Regan were indicted for assault ing Mr. Ryder, headborough of Poplar, in the execu tion of his duty, whilst•arresting Regan. Sentence— seven days' imprisonment. Clifford was indicted for assaulting Mr. Fox, of Great Queen-street, Lincoln's Inn-fields, on the 24th attly last.—The prisoner, who appeared to labour under mental delusion, objected to be tried unless - the King himself was present, as he said he could not hope for a fair• trial from the Court and Jury, and it was 'a long time before he would plead to the indictment. From -Mr. Fox's testimony it appeared, that on the day mentioned, the prisoner called at his house claiming his wife and child from Mr. Fox. The witness is a trustee for Mrs. Clifford, who lived separate from her husband as a governess in a Gentleman's family, and because the witness did not produce Mrs. Clifford, he assaulted him with a large bludgeon. The prisoner was found •Gbilty. Mr. PRENDERGAST, the barrister, said, that he be lieved the defendant was insane. He had seen him in 'courts of Justice before. The defendant said that he believed Mr. Prendergast liras insane ; he had seen him in Courts ofJustice before. The CHAIRMAN then ordered that he should be taken away for the present. Isaac Clinton, James Williams, and James Tong, three corporals of the Coldstream Guards, , were in dicted f r or a riot in Dyot-street, Sr. Giles's, and wound-' ing George Pond, a street-keeper, with - 4 bayonet, on the Seth day of July last. Mr. BARRY stated, that the present prosecution was instituted by the Officers of the united parishes of St. Giles and St. George, Bloomsbury, against the pri soners, for the outrage which he would be enabled to prove upon them.—On the day mentioned the pri soners had been drinking freely in St. Giles's, and at last fell out with some of the inhabitants. Poed and ether officers interfered to preserve the peace, when the prisoner Clinton drew his bayonet, and made a throst at Pond therewith, which, after going through Ms clothes, made an incision of two inches long on his body ; and then the other two prisoners also drew their side-arms, and they all made a desperate resistance to the Officers before they were disarmed and secured. Mr. BARRY then called Pond, Wyatt, and Riley, the constables, who proved the outrageous conduct of the two first named prisoners, as well as the stabbing of Pond by Clinton.—Clinton and Williams were found Guilty, and Tong acquitted. Clinton was sentenced to ten weeks, and Williams to siz weeks imprionment. David Edwards, who was convicted on Saturday for a fraud, in obtaining 21. from a man named Duncan, to defend his brother at the July Sessions, was sentenced to four months imprisonment in the House of Correction.

James Bartlett, one of the Bow street patrol, con- victed on the 14th instant of assaulting Mr. Pennell, a Gentleman residing at Bayswater, was sentenced to only one month's imprisonment in the House of Correc tion, in consequence of his being dismissed from his situation as a patio]. The Jewish inhabitants of Weimar have applied to the Grand Duke for a modification of his recent ordon nance, enjoining ad the divine service in their s'Ynagognes to be performed in the German language, so far as to al lowing certain prayers and religious exercises, on which depend the blessings and consolations which the pious hope to enjoy,. to be recited in Hebrew. The Grand Duke has, by a rescript, desired the Rabbis and other learned deWs to specify the passages of the service re ferred to in their Petition. Friday evening, a weaver, from Rutherglen, return ing home, about 11 o'clock, was attacked by five or six ruffians, robbed of 235. thrown over the wall into the river Clyde, and had his broken by the fall. By the exertions of a very.active young man, residing near timbal's Toll-bar, leading to Pollokshaws, the poor man was saved from , drowning, and brought to the Glasgow Police . Office. •- - - SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. . . • . DONCASTER RACES-.-Scorrusza 20. The Course was crowded beyond all former precedent, and the most Intense anxiety existed amongst all classs, and the various rumours flying about as to horses which were expected to start, made the sporting men very cautious in their betting. The variations in betting previously to the race, exceeded all former precedent. None but those who were" in and in" could possibly discover the mean. ing of alternately bringing up as favourites in one stable, hlustacbio, Altisidnra, and Caccia Piaui. The most knowing ones were at fault, and the common salutation eras—. there never was such times." On the Sunday morning, great consternation was excited by Streatham being sold and delivered into the hands of —; no one could tell his owner, as it was not declared.

Oswestry, b. c. by Ebor, Monntaineer, Hannah, Burysthenes. AU the horses went off very close together. Streatham, son after starting, took the lead, followed by Tarandus, and made very severe running, being at one time at least two lengths ahead of the other 'horses. After passing the Red•house, Brutandorf challenged Streatham, but was soon defeated, and the latter kept his place until he had passed the Distance-post, when Canteen and the Millet came up, followed by Jerry. •At the Stand the Miller had the lead. which he could not keep, for Jerry, when let loose, won easy by a length. The :Miller was third (though not placed), and Streathant and Brutandorf 'were fourth and filth.— Run in three minutes and twenty-nine seconds. The winner was rode in fine style by 8.. Smith, and Canteen, by T. Shepherd. • The general opinion is, that Streatham (though rode by the cele brated W. Arnold) would have won, had he been jockied by Tem, pleman (who steered him at York), under the directions of the ex perienced groom who trained him. Upon the whole, though won easy in the end, it may be considered a tolerable sporting, but not a remarkably fine race. It shill be seen that 'all the it:tales of celebrity In the kingdom were in requisition, the veteran Buckle in the list.

THE FIGHT TESTERDAY. ~ . 1 2 This Mitch was made for'Steekmart to fight a scientific chap, once called " the Sailor Boy," of the name of Axes, now a man, for £5O. Fairlop, or at least the ground contiguous to it, a quarter of a mile from the celebrated May-pole public house, was the chosen spot, where a vast concourse of p e r so ns a ssem bl e d. .The Commissary-General 'had no orders for the P. C. Stakes, and at length Fishwick , announced be had Apes and stakes Ohio own, and the ring was made. Jem Ward and Dick Curtis tied the colours to the stake fur Stockman; and Ben Burn and Dick Grindley challenged defiance on the part of Jones. Boutin 1. Stockman made the play, but he iivethit himself, and necessari!y got into a rally. Both seemed too eager to make any effective deliveries, and no harm was done. In Of struggle for the % fall, Jones, who was the heaviest, got it ; but in going down, Stock man, by a dexterous manceuvre, got the best of the fall: the ground just suited the hard - nobs of the opponents. 2. Ina courageous round, Jones had thetest of a smart rally. In the clove, which ended the rally, Stockman weaved (vulgarly called a fibbing"); but the sailor kept the lock siptm his arm, and threw him. Jones shewed first of claret: 5. Stockman missed with both• his hands; his head was nodded away, when Jones sprung *upon him. The sailor went in with the greatest of that.whieh. Broughton called great game. He proved himself a very xlever fellow, and no rush of Stockman's could hurt him. He could either parry or be offensive; and Stockman went down With the worst of the round. 4. Stockman was piping. Flats sung out, " Who has trained the man." Dick Curtis, in return, cheered his man, and said " I • wish some of you brawlers would come and have a trial."—No symptoms of any such offer. A smart rally. Bath down. The bout decidedly in favour of Jones. 5. No mischief done, although much meant. Stockman turned the fight in his favour, ad cracked his adversary's lower jaw, from which claret had no denial. Jones bad no inclination to go down, but he was fibored against his will. 6. Jones began to duck his head, and was beat; or at least,it was 5 to 1 against his winning. 7. Jones was floored by a throttler. S. Jones, ducking his head, Stockman met him up with the left hand, and administered to him until he had ptetty nearly out and outed him. .After the 16th round Jones had no chance, and Ben Burn, his second, gave in fur him. Stockman, the winner, shook bands with • his put (the fallen), pocketed the Gude, and went home quite jolly. • MOUNTRA STAICET OFFICE.—Mr.Smyth, of Ca pel street, pawnbroker, was yesterday brought before Sir W.
