The methods recommended by the loyal Humane Society were promptly and zealously persevered in for the space of four hours , by Mr. James Dution and Mr. Charles Miller, both surgeons at fia,tings, and the struggle from dissolution to life during the preceding . period was dangerous, painful, tlistre,sing, and alai:ming. He is now under the rout Mr. Dutt:tn, and rapidly recovering his health, and will soon ht,e the pleasure of resuming his occuprion with one of the best of mistresses, whose kindness and laterality t..wards him, in his melancholy cat strophe; e ken unbounded. BURGLARY AT GIIEEAIVICIL Sunday week, between the hours of seven and eight the evening, chile the family of Mr. J•mes, of Park ,treet, Gieensvich, were attending Divine Set vice, the :louse during their absence was broken into, and robbed of property in bank-notes and gold, amounting to 1:;h/. betides some other valuable articles. On the ;; ;;Irm being given, it was ascertained that siime persons in the neighboulhood had observe 1 , in the course of that evening, four str.inge-looking men lurking about the premises. Every exertion was m ade to find out who they were ; but all failed, and not the slightest trace of them could be discovered until Simday last; when the same men were again observed in the neigh. bourhacd, of which circurn..tance information was irn-- mediately given to Hodges and Farmer, two active constables of that District.. These Officers at cnce placed themselves on the alert, and ascertained about seven o'clock in the evening, that they intended break ing into the premises of a Mr. Nugent, a coin-chandler, in Woolwich-road, who, with his family, had that day gone to Deptford. The Constables immediately pro ceeded to that Gentleman's house, and, with the assist ance of Mr. Smith, a publican, succeeded in appre hending the gang, two of whom at the time had effected an entrance into Mr. Nugent's house, and had, when disturbed, most of the portable and valuable articles therein packed up, ready to take away, while the other two remained outside. On being secured and searched, a number of how ebreaking implements were fount: upon them. The prisoners, whose names ate Andrew ewman, James tioodillg, Charles Seward, alias Catholic, and Nrnerucl Co3tilt, were on Monday morning taken hefo Thomas Sir IPEREN, Esq. a Magistrate at G rten ss jell, and were remanded until Wednesday, when they were again brought up before Messrs. CONSTABLE, JACKSON, and SHIPEREN, the Magistrates ; and Foster, an Officer btlnnging to Lambeth-sweet Office, being present, identified the prisoners as old offenders, and some of the most daring characters in the district of that Of They were fully committed to take their trials at the next Maidstone Assizes. The Haymatket Theatre and the English Opera House were crowded last night, notwithstanding the town is so thi.i. This is a convincing proof that in those Theatres, which are not too large, and where variety is produced, and good performers are engaged, our dramatic entenaiments will meet due encourage ment from a discerning and intelligent public. DiottAMA.—The visitors to the Diorama, in the Regent's Park, still continue to be numerous, notwithstanding the town is so thin. Scarcely a person arrives from the modern Athens, but their first enquiry is for the View of Holyroed Chapel, and the striking resemblance it bears to the original, draws many an involuntary proof of a Scotcbman's attachment to his native country, its mountains, and its monuments. All the Princes and Princesses of England. brothers and sisters of 6110110 C IV. who are on the Continent, lately met at Homburg, the capital of the Landgrave of HESSE. There were the Queen Dowager of Vinermeseno, the Landgravine of Hasse, and the Dukes of CLARIINC; CUMMILAWD, and Contemns, Governor of Hanover.—Eteile. It is worthy if remark, that the Hero, Capt. STEELE, which arrived at Liverpool on Tuesday from Bombay, had not been heard of from the day of her sailing thence until her arrival from the east. She has completed her voyage out and home in little more than nine month.. Wednesday sennight, Prince SCHWARTZENEURO and the Count FRANCOIS d'HARACK, who have lately been on a visit to the Duke of NORTHUMBERLAND, at Aln wick Castle, went d twn a pit at Howdon-colliery, for the purpose of examining the workings, with which they expressed themselves much gratified. The Haytian Ambassadors have arrived at Paris, very much to the grief of the Quotidienne, which is shocked at the sight. " Our policy," it remarks, "grows darker every day—the Haytian Deputies arrived yesterday." Wednesday night an Inquest was held at the Bull's Head, in Crown-street, Soho, on the body of John Williams, a musician, who being afflicted with theu madams over-dosed himself with meadow saffron and rum, and died in consequence of the violent vomiting it occasioned, on Saturday last. After the searchers had been, the body was screwed down in the coffin, on account of its decomposed state, the day before the In quest was assembled. The Jury were perfectly satisfied with the evidence, but the Coroner said it would be necessary to view the body. It was stated that it would be dangerous to the Jury to have the lid taken off, which could only be effected by breaking the coffin to pieces; and that the body was so much decomposed, the sex could not be discovered. The Coroner said, he could take no verdict until the Jury viewed the body, and without a vet diet he could not issue a warrant for its interment; but the Jurymen persisted they could not take the view without danger to themselves and public, and the Coroner theieupon dissolved the Court. the - 1 2, - - - rAbE OF RESUSCITATION AT HA Saturday afternoon, September the 24t 1 ,„ 0 an d three o'clock, as William Belcher, , osi , a middle age, of respectable char ,ober habits, in the service of Mrs. Finch, -ansequence, and a temporary resident wi t'Vebster Wnistler's family, Rector of Ha bat hing in the sea, to the eastward of the to 31 low water, the waves much ruffled andwi a kind blotting a strong gale from the ~Mtrtunately, from the sweep and force ~a s co nveyed out of his depth between a rid ::-.atted in a southern direction, termed t Rocks, and outside others running oblige v-1:11 -east, called the Parish Lake ; he w from tLe shore by four young men, sinkin 6 , 0 „ 1 ,ing state, two of them (Garlick ant me diately jumped into the ocean to rescue 1 daqerous situation, assisted by the other convanion, who had been bathing with most lot his life in attempting to save his T oed bunt on shore, animation completely 1 4; *ai carefully conducted on men's slto ne,izarmse, be:onging to Mrs. Plane, a wi w ho, on Frid a y three weeks, lost her son b tienten: , Whilst hauling sever al leagues fr arid was i m pressed with an idea that he w a up WIWI sate saw the surrounding special mate her habitation.

BURGLARY A7' G ÜBE IV, THE ARMY. .-....-- Yesterday morning, about eight o'clock, the Regiment of Horse Guards (Blue) marched from Knightsbridge Barracks to Worm wood Scrubbs, and bad a grand field,day. The Regiment was . co l l3 mantled by Colonel Hut., and were put through a variety of diffi cult movements, which they performed much to the satisfaction of their gallant Commander. The fineness of the day, added to the attraction of the splendid band, who played a number of maidsl airs, contributed much to enliven the scene. A great assemblage of rank and beauty were on the ground. The Regiment returned to Knightsbridge between twelve and one o'clock. ' Detachments belonging to the 6th, 35th, 60th, 70th, 74th, 93d Foot, and Royal Staff Corps, have arrived in town from Scotland, and will march forthwith for the Depots of their respective Corps. A Detachment belonging to the Fast India Company's Service, embarked on Wednesday, at Billingsgate, for Gravesend, on their route to Chatham. The 42d (Royal Highlanders) are ordered from Dublin, to ent. bark at Cork, for Gibraltar, to relieve the 64th, who ate coming to England. The first Detachment, including the Staff, of the Ist Regiment, or Royal Scots ' marched into Newry, on Friday last, front Castle. bar; and on Saturday morning, the two companies of the Rifle Brigade, which relieved the 63d Regiment, lately quartered there, left that place for Belfast. The Princess Royal transport, with the second division of the 32d, having been released front quarantine, went into Plymouth harbour on Wednesday, when the troops disembarked. MONTHLY OBITUARY.

DISDICAL DePARTMIINT.--Deptity Inspector Inglis, Africa; As sistant-Surgeon James, Ma Ica, 19th July, las. MSOLVENT DEBTuRs' COURT. SEPT. 29. James 1. inn came before the Court, for his discharge. Mr. Por.Loca, on behalf of Mr. Wells, a flour factor, residing at Dork.ng, opposed the Insolvent. • The Insolvent was then examined. It appeared from the evidence, that he had formerly made an application to, and was discharged by this Court. Since that period he had contracted a debt of 284. for flour, supplied to him, the original amount of the debt being 851. The Insolvent, in payment, gave a bill of exchange, accepted by a person named Andrews, who committed suicide about the time it came due. He purchased the flour from a person 'named Kent, who acted as the accre dited agent of Mr. Wells, but Kent was well aware that he (the Insolvent) had taken formerly the benefit of the Act, and that at the time of the purchase he was a prisoner within the Rules of the King's Bench. Edward Kent being called, stated that he was the authorised agent to the opposing creditor, and had sold ten sacks of fl rur to the Insolvent for 351. of which he paid 71. on account of the bill he received. The wit ness stated in the most positive and unequivocal terms, that he was ignorant at the time of the purchase that the Insolvent had either taken the benefit of the Act, or that he was charged in execution on a debt subse quently formed, and that had he been aware of these circumstances he would not have given the Insolvent credit. The Insolvent stated to him, that he owed nothing to any other mealman, and that he had the lease of his house, and mentioned other arrangements, which induced witness to believe the Insolvent to be in solvent circumstances. Cross-examined by Mr. HEATH.—The witness in re ply to his several questions, said he had been Wells's agent for twelve or fourteen months. That he had seen the Insolvent frequently in the public-houses about the Bench prison—but he persisted in the denial of his having any knowledge of his being then a prisoner. Witness has been a prisoner himself, both ih the Rules of the Bench and within its walls, and he took the bene fit of the Act two years ago. Whilst he was a pri sonerhe kept " a Ruler's room," which, after some hesi tation, he admitted the Insolvent frequented. Witness had been frequently in prison—but it all arose from his good nature—(A laugh). Mr. HZAru—Were you not in the Rules when you were charged with something more serious ? Witness—That has nothing to do with what I am now stating. Mr. POLLOCK objected to the line of examination pursued by Mr. Heath, and submitted that the witness was competent to give his evidence, notwithstanding the circumstances alluded to. The Court overruled the objection. Witness—He had been taken up on a charge, but was honour ably exonerated from i:. He still persevered in saying he was perfectly ignorant of the insolvency of the petitioner. The Insolvent was again examined by Mr. MATH. —He swore that Kent was well aware all through of his having been a prisoner, for he had advised him to supersede the action upon which he was detained. This advice he gave him repeatedly, in the presence of a person named Woodroffe. The Insolvent denied that be had ever made any such representatilns of property as those mentioned by Kent. After the bill became due, Kent applied to him, and used vulgar language, saying, " D—n you, you are not half a mace cove (a swindler); why did you not buy flour of other people, for I should not have cared who the devil they were, Iso you had paid me ?"--(a laugh). Kent being recalled, he admitted that he had let slip some conversation about making purchases from other people ; but denied he ever made use of the expression "matt cove," he could not have said it, and it was ex tremely cruel to attribute such language to him— (Much laughter) Mr. HgATII, for the Insolveat, addressed the Court at considerable length, and to ok occasion to comment on the equivocal and loose testimony of Kent, and which bad evidently for its object to impress the Court unfa vourably towards the Insolvent. He confidently con tended that the Court, taking every circumstance into I its grave consideration, would come to the decision that there was not the slightest shadow of a case against his client, but that from the evidence there was string pre sumption that Kent knew everything at the time of the purchase, and therefore the Court would not deprive his client of the benefit of his discharge. Mr. Commissioner HARRIS Said that Mr. Wells would now know more about his agent than he did before. There was some conflicting evidence, but he was bound to say it preponderated in favour of the In solvent, and he believed every one who heard the case would be of the same' crinion as he was, namely= hit Kent knew more about the Insolvent than he thought proper to represent. There was, therefore, no ground for refusing the relief the petitioner sought. The Insolvent then received his discharge. JcAn Golden, who prayed his discharge, was opposed on behalf of his creditors, by Mr. Por.t.ootc, It ap peared from the evidence f the Insolvent, who was a silk-manufacturer, that his premises had been twice burned down, for which he was both times recompensed'' by his insurers. That on the night of the 20th of June, 1824, his house was entered, and that silk. Owe, wearing apparel, and other aqicles were stolen therein and made away with, and that they amounted in value, according to the entry in his schedule, to 3004 That on the night of the robbery he lost his watch dog, which he always kept in the yard; and that about twenty days afterwards he called a meeting cf his creditors, and offered them 4s. in the pOund. That the robbery had been effected without any noise, as none of the family had been disturbed, and that the locks of the doors and drawers said to have been forced, did not present the' appearance of the necessary violence. It was contended by Mr. Pollock, that under the circumstances of the case, there was a making away and concealment of the property on the part cf the Insolvent. But even ad mitting the story of the robbery to be true, and which he considered fictitioes, yet the property said to be stolen could never swell up in valgre a sum of COOL It was, therefore, with the Court to decide, whether the improbability of the story did not far surpass its pto babil:ty, and that the case carte under the 17th section of the Act ? Mr. HEATH, for the Insolvent, went into the evi dence at great length, and contended t h at every iota of it went to e,tablish his client's innocence, and absolve him from any design to cheat his cieJitors. The whole thing was got up to prejudice the character of the insolvent, and influence the mind of the Cott+ t un favourably towards him. It was cruel to make such charge with so little foundation against a man borne down with ill health and misfortune, having a family of eight children to support by his future exeitions. Mr. Commissioner HARRIS said it was due to the Insolvent to say, that the evidence adduced totally upset the idea of his attempting to conceal and make away with the property, for the robbery was most certainly proved, but to what extent that had been he was not called upon to say, or that he was satisfied with the amount at which the loss was estimated; but it was, however, his duty to rescue the Insolvent's character from the slightest reflection that he had criminally taken and concealed the property. It therefore did not appear to the Court that a case was made out to de prive the insolvent of his discharge under the 17th section of the Act. The insolvent was then discharged, with orders to send in an exact account of the property he had sold, together with the vouchers. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. BETTING-ROOM, TATTERSALL'S, SEPT. 29. A very thin attendance, and scarcely any betting. The confu sion occasioned by the Levanters has now nearly subsided, but the unprincipled conduct of one has excited great indignation. This person, though worth at least £50,000, sets them all at defiance, and refuses to pay his bets, amounting to £12,000 or £15,000, al leging that he cannot think of injuring his family. He is bunted out of all the sporting circles. We believe it is determined in fu ture, when any one does not come forward in a reasonable time. after a great race, to post him in the same manner as defaulters at the Stock Exchange.
