TRUTH AND YOUNG ROMANCE. Young Romance, through rows straying, Saw old Truth trudge lamely on; • One in pleasure's light was playing, The other sighed for pkasures gone : Cries Romance, " 0 rest a minute, And discuss our views of Earth: Your. mar have most prudence in it, But in mine is all the mirth !" " Ah!" says Truth, " this world disclose! Nought but vain delusive wiles; Thorns are under all your roses, Sadness follows all your smiles r' Cries Romance, " Perhaps I often Colour life with tints too warm; Yet my warmth a shade may soften, While your coldness chills a charm !" " What is Love?" the sage then asks him, " Love in summer hours so sweet ? Wintry weather soon unmasks him, And your Idol proves a cheat !" ." Love !" the youth replies, " 0 sever Real Love from vain deceits ; Constant Love brings hours that never • Lose their sunshine or their sweets!" " Friendship too, you call a treasure ! But," says Truth, " it is a tie Loosely worn 'mid scenes of pleasure, •And when Fortune frowns—thrown by." " Friendship," he replies, " possesses Worth which no dark change destroys, Seeking, soothing our distresses, Sharing, doubling all our joys !" " Go," says Truth, "'tis plain we never Can such hostile thoughts combine; Folly is your guide for ever, While dull sense must still be mine !" Cries the boy—" Frown on, no matter, Mortals love my merry glance; E'en in Truth's own path they scatter Roses snatched from young Romance!" EDINBURGH, OCT. 10. Friday se'nnight a most distressing accident took place at Mr. Stewart's distillery, Saucel, Paisley. At a quarter to ten in the evening, John Adams, while en gaged hooking on filled bags to a block and tackle wrought by machinery, for raising them to an upper flat, had one of his sleeves caught by the hook, and after being lifted to a considerable height, the clothes gave way, by which he was thrown into the mash tun, which was so deep as to take him up to about the neck. His fellow-workmen ran to his assistance with all the speed pos-ible, but when they had got him nearly our, their hold gave way, and he was precipitated a second time into the burning liquid. After being taken out he was carried to the house of recovery, but was burned in such a shocking manner, that the greater. part of his skin came off with his clothes. He expired next day at twelve o'clock, having lingered till that time in great distress: he was a pensioner. and has left a wife and family, who ate mostly grown up. Tuesday an old man of the name of Robertson, em ployed abt,ut the salt works at Charlestown, met with a shocking death. It appeals that he had fallen asleep near a pan, between an interval of labour, and on a person suddenly calling him, he started up, and being in a contused state, he inadvertently walked or fell into the boiling liquid, by which he was ►o dreadfully scalded that he expired in a short time alter being taken out. Sunday se'nnight, about eight o'clock, as the brigan tine Pandora, Captain Scott, had arrived outside Dun dee harbour, from Revel, Alexander Dewar, an un married man, one cf the clew, whilst engaged in stowing the maintop sail, fell from the yard to the deck, and died instantaneously. On the evening of Tuesday last, a man of the name of William Souness was murdered while on bis way from Gifford Fair. He had left tbe fair in the evening with a cow and 281. of money, as is supposed, and was fennd ne4r Spindleford quite dead, his . head mangled in a shocking manner, his pockets turned inside out, 'and his money gone. At a.shott distance from the body a horse was discovered gning at large, which had been rode that day by a person residing at Meadow-mill, who bas since been apprehended. As he gave the most vague and unsatisfactory statements respecting the loss of his horse, and other relative citcumstances, he has been committed to' Iladdington gaol. The deceased was upwards ti eighty years f age; he had been a farmer in his youth, undo r Mr. Fletcher, of Saltoun, but latterly subsisted by dealing in cattle. A strict in vestigation is going on, and it is to be hoped that the perpetrators of this horrid crime will not long escape the punishment they deserve.—Scotsman. WEYIIILL FAIR. At A ppleshave Fair, on Wednesday and Thursday s the nomistr of sheep was petty considerable, but it is almost impossible to ascertain the exact number, in • ton,equence of so many of the flocks being sold with out penning. The prices were high, and may be stated as follows: Dorset Ewes from 28s. to 455. and 505.; Somerset ditto, 30-. to 52, and 551. Weyhill Sheep Fair opened on Friday morning, tl e • 101 t Hist. ; penning commenced %% ills the dawn of day, and by ix o'clock sales became pretty general, the fineness ut the weather, together with the freedom for business, rendering the lively scene both picturesque and ititertsting. We have seen a gteattr number of sheep prism.] on estraordinat y occa.itinc, but on ati average not mote than at the present lair. We may state the number at nt.t less than 100,000 penned; and, ge nerally speaking, apparently in the best condition we ever witnessed. Sales, towards the middle of the day, were flatter than at tirsr, and prices may be fairly quoted as follosis, at least as the list ()gained from some of the most respectable dealers : Down Ewt a from 18s. to 365. and '595.; Down Lambs, 16.. to 26). and 295.; Weiler*, 20s. to 355. and 405.. Titus Hoase FAIL—The show of Horses was re- malleably good ; as regards cart colts, they were nu• merlin-, and the prices, according to age and condition, various; the most promising fetched high prices, and, as usual, were quickly bought up by the London dealers. Amongst, other horses, we noticed a beautiful string of foreign ones, we believe Flemish, yearling and two year ' old cart gone colts; they are short and thick, and ape pear well calculated for farmers' service; they sold pretty well. Nig and hurling horses were much sought after, and met a rcady sale on the sheep fair day, which is considered the:bow fair for horses. Middling horses, of all classes, were numerous, and according to their age and condition met with purchasers. • In the Cheese Fair, we noticed but few I,its as yet grounded, and no business has commenced it, that dc. pat.tment. lire Hop and Cheese Fairs gent rally open on the same,4lty; the prices are expected to be high for 'the treq.daiiies. The flop Fair will not cowmence till Mosiaay . , as the whole of the Farnham Hops will not •..M / be expected to be in till twelve o'clock on Saturday, according to Blissimere Acre Statute, till which time it will be impossible to state the quantity of Flops grounded; but from what we gather from conversation, And judge by present arrivals. we estimate the quantity at about last year's growth. Both in the Ciond.le and Farnham rows, the, quantity is said to be very fine. It is impossible to say what Hops are expected to realize in price; this must be decided on Monday, when the fair will open. Should the weather continue fine, as on the sheep fair day, much business as well as pleasure may be anticipated in the course of the ensuing week.' Andover has alresidy been pretty full of people, from Appleshaw and Weyhill sheep fairs, and there is little doubt that all the inns and private lodgings will be thronged for some days to come. There are upwards of a score of London cars, besides the usual conveyances, constantly plying from Andover to the Hill. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL'S.

NOUS& I'voixtsu no ma City.—A tall athletic man named Vass*. and another person, were charged with having excited two drunken men to fight on Saturday everting. at about eight o'clock, at a pleat near Tower lihl, called Barking Chuteleyaril; and Mr. Minifie was charged with having himself bbown off in the pugilistic art, when the drunken men were prevented from indulging the crowd assembled. Mr. Drinkald and other Gentlemen of the neighbourhood were, it appeared, obliged to interfere for the protection of the peace its the vicinity, in which several hundred persons were colleted to fight. The pugilists were luckily in such a state as to be unable to do each other harm. Although a ring was made, and seconds is attendance, and umpires chosen, the combatants did very little more than pull each other's - hair, and hug like two bears, until they tumbled. The fah was, however, a signal for very unmanly ing. The unfortunate pugilists, the moment they " bit the dust; were assailed with kicks on the ribs and faces; and .victory muse soon have been declared in favour of the mob that surrounded them, were it not fur a gentleman named Christie and Mr. Drink. aU,'who interfered to prevent the drunken men from being kicked to death. Mr. Christie seeing Mr. Jahn& very busy in alma. Wing the tattle, rushed between the fighters, and said that they should Eght no more; whereupon Mr. Allielfie clenched his het., held them up to Mr. Ch ' s face, threatened to 1 . sarve him out," and endeavoured to intimidate him from to►ing any part in the settlement of the quarrel. Alderman FARO/BROTHER condemned the conduct of Mr. Minifies' Ile considered it extremely unfair in that gentlettion to put himself into the place of tine of the fallen pugilist., alter they bad' retired from the fight. The Alderman then ordered that Mr. Minifie siets:d enter into recognizance, to keep the peace. G U I LIMA Llo Waldron Feed was charged with stealing two musical boxes, value 401.

Rubins, the auc tioneer,, on Friday last. It appeared that the watches, and other property, had been given to the porters of Messrs Robins by Mr. Harrison, a pawn brok, r, of Tottenham Court-road, and were to be sold at a sale of unredeemed pledges then about to take place. About nine o'clock on Friday morning the prisoner was admitted into the sale-room, by the woman by whom it is usually cleaned, and to whom ha was known as fllle of Mr Harrison's shopmen. In a short time after Inc had lot, a Mr. Bentley came in, and asked to see the watches. The [ortolan went to where they had been placed, but could nut find theni. An inquiry then followed as to who had been there that morning, and the woman alluded to described the prisoner's person ►o accurately, that it was easily ascettaiseed who be was.— The watches were produced by Mr. Jupp, with whom they had been pledged for 2% arid the prisoner admitted that be had pledged them. Sir Ricumus Mime asked if the porter to whom the watches had beep given, and who had placed rheas its the saleroom, was present ?

It appeared that on Friday afternoon, a Gentleman who was in Mr. Newman's shop happened to drop a 41.4.; but he slid not discover his loss till some time after. Inquiries were then made, and it was discovered that the note had been paid into the bank by Messrs. Shoalbresrs. of Tottenham. coun.toad, linen.drapers, and who had cashed it for the prisoner, when he purchased goods as 'their house.. The prisoner said he picked up the note iu Sobooquare, and was unable to advertise it, owing to his poverty. He had spent a portion of the money; but was willing to make the owner every reparation in his power.—Sir G.

Th e at) le of writhtg, however, excited a suspicion in the mind of Miss Craig, and further inquiry having been made, Mrs. Farmer was found to be a poor woman supported by the parish. The prisoner said that he had been obliged to leave several situations on account of illness, after he had tilled them only a few weeks. No one would be satisfied with so short a character, and he had therefore endea voured to procure the situation in Miss Craig's house by requesting Mrs. Farmer to write the letter. filt.

The following *robbery was perpetrated on Saturday afternoon between three and four o'clock :—A boy, seat by Mr. Sanderson, of Ludgate -street, with a parcel of silks worth about 701. was passing the court called Ludgate pla• ce. was accosted by a man without a hat, and a pen behind his ear, who offered him 6d. to fetch a coach (tom Bridge -street, saying he would hold bis bag for him clueing the time. The boy incautioody gave him the parcel, and on his return discovered that be had set off with thegoods. Most fortunately, in this instance, a young man who was passing at the time saw three med come out of the court with a black bag, and it immediately occurred to him that they had obtained the goods improperly. He thetefote followed them through St. Maitin's•courr, and from thence into Thatner.street, and after a variety of turnings and wind ings he came up with the man who cartied the bag, is Knight Sider -street, and boldly challenged hint, with a determination of knowing from whence he came and where he was going. The fellow on this threw down the bag and made his escape and, on examining the parcel, he found an invoice, which enabled him to re store the whole of the goods to the right owner. MARRIED.
