METEOR AND'EARTII4UAKE. A traveller, wit > happened during the nights of the 11th and 12th of August to he upon the Alps, reports that he •a.v a globe of fire which lighted the atmosphere for three minutes; and about the same time the shocks of an earthquake were felt in several parts of Italy. • • - 1 - c ,ss k - • c‘ . . - •• EAd SLIB-FLUVIAL BRIDGES. The construction of a sub-maiirru bridge, like that h ch is now eeciiting under the Thames, is not with o.it example in hiitorv. According to Drodorus of Si• c ly, Semiramis caused to be constructed a bridge under the Euphrates, in order to be able to repair secretly Iron one to the other of the two palaces, which were bulk upon each bauk of the river. This road was 300 stadia in length, 19 in breadth, 12 in height, and was finished in 260 days. THE FRENCH INSTITUTE. This . learned boly have offered a gold melal, of the valne of 1,503 franc; for the best paper on the follow ing subject, the prize to he adiudged in the public sit ting in July, 1826:—" To inquire what were the pro vince% towns, castles, and estates, acquired in France by Philip-Augimus, and haw he acquired them—whe ther by conque , t, Purchase, or exchange?—To ascer tain which of those domains he 4 1ipoet1 'of by gift, which by sale, and which by exchange, and which of them he retained in his own hands and united to the Crown?" EGYPTIAN SARCOPHAGUS The Journal de la Medilerranre mentions the arrival at Marseilles, in the early part of the present month (Sep tember) of a magnificent sarcophagus, from Alexan dria, found in the ancient sepulchres of Memphis, near • the Valley of the Pyramids, in a well 60 feet deep. The lower part of this monument is eight feet long, about tvio and a half feet high, and in its extreme breadth about three and a half feet. It is covered with an im mense number of hieroglyphics, mythological figures, and symbols, all executed in a very superipr style, in granite. The weight of this superb piece of antiquity is upwards of 3,000 kilogrammes (two tons and a half English). The lid, which is equally remarkable for the rarity and beauty of its workmanship, weighs nearly as much. The colour of the sarcophagus is a deep green, resembling bronze, inlaid with spots of a bright red, and others again of a more sombre tinge. Besides this spotted wot k, which is done with admirable uni formity, the lo.wer - part is beautifully ornamented in three or four places, with broad bands of a bright yellow co lour, which ascend to the top. These fine embellish ments form a most pleasing relief to the dark bronze ground of the monument. When the lid shall be re placed, .the ensemble will present a coup-deed altogether unique, as well by the richness of the matter, as the co lossal dimensions and majestic form of the monument. None of those of an analogous kind, hitherto seen, are adequate to convey a correct notion of the gorgeousness of the one we are now describing. And, what adds con siderably to its value, it is nowhere injured, except by two slight scratches on the upper margin, made, no doubt, by th.;e who first reniaved the lid to rob the tomb of its contents. The two curiosities, after being placed on two strong carriages, werealmost immediately sent off to Pill is. • LA CHINE CANAL. T RIM ♦ CANADIAN LATER. Saturday, the 14th August, the first canal boat which has been seen in this Province, left the basin situate near Mr. Griffin's cottage (about a mile and a half ftom this City) to proceed to Lachine, on the canal. The President of the Canal Board, the Hon. John ltichai dson, and the Commissioners, attended by E. Watson, Esq. of Albany, were on board, with a view of ascertaining the state of the canal and locks preparatory to the admission of loaded boats. The day was remarkably fine. His Majesty's flag graced the stern of the boat, which is called the Jane, and is constructed on a neat and novel plan, and calculated for passengers or for freight. By one of the Gentle men viho sailed in the Jane, we are informed that the people along the canal, at every village or hamlet, and at Lachine, evinced much joy in viewing this novel dis play, which will doubtless prove a stimulus to more ex tended operations in the canal line in this country. . La Cl;ine Canal is nine miles long, and with the exception of three locks a t the outlet, is now completed. It will contain eight locks, each of six feet lift, and twenty feet wide, built in the most substantial manner; thus surmounting forty. eight feet of rapids in the space of nine miles, a hitherto serious obstacle to our internal commerce. The other diniensions of the canal are twenty•eight feet at the bottom, and forty-eight at the surface, and it is to contain five feet of water. The bridges are all of a sufficient height, built in a solid manner of cedar (except at Lachine, where there is a beautiful cut stone bridge), and supported. knees, similar to those used in the construction of vessels. The ()Felting of this, our first specimen of artificial internal navigation, forms an era in the history of the inipr, , vernent of canals. To look forward simply to the hen( fi. which will arise out of this important work itself, were to take but a limited view of its results. A few years, we are convinced, will not only bring con viction to the minds of the people, of the vast import ance of this work, but will cause our Legislature, as well as the whole body of the community, to feel an interest hitherto unknown in the extension and multi- plication of such works. A fine medal in bronze has been just strnck at the in Puris t , repiesenting Charles X. The resem blance is perfect, and the workmanship appears to be very fine.

OCTOBER 2. +- There is a report in town to-day, that a serjeant and two privates of the 62d Regiment, on their march to an out-post on the Uppei Shannon, were deprived of their arms near Nenagh yesterday. by a gang of ruf tians, who murdered the serjeant, and beat the others in a frightful manner. The following statement of facts i, from a Gentleman in the neighbourhood where the murder was committed :—‘. Serj. Dowd, of the 62J Re-' ment, commanding a small detachment of soldiers on. the Shannon, about six miles from Nenagh, on return ing to his barrack on Tuesday evening, about eight o'clock, went into a public-house on the load-side with two of his men, and called for a little beer. There were four or five count: ymea, who had been to Nenagh with cars, sitting in the house when the serjeant went -in ; some conversation took place between one of the cows.: trymen (a person of the name of Kennedy), and a sol dier, Kennedy saying he liked the soldiers, and damned the police; the soldier made some remark in favour of the police, when the countryman stood up to spike him ; on which the se:jeant said be would not allow his party to be insulted, and that he would inform the police, and have them all taken up under the Insur rection Act in the morning, and instantly ordered his men to their barrack. On the soldiers leaving the house, the carmen almost immediately Fot their cars ready, and followed in the same direction ; on their coming up with the serjeant and his two men (one of whom was fifty or sixty paces behind), the men leaped down off' the cars, and coming behind the serjeant in the dark (it being then between nine and ten o'clock), they knocked him down, on which Quin, the soldier, ran up to assist the serjeant, and was himself knocked down. The ser jeant got up and ran towards the door of a house and knocked, to try and save himself from his pursuers, but was not admitted; Quin ran towards another house, but could not get in, and on going up towards the house where he saw the serjeant knocking, he found him lying on his face on the road speechless. The other s 4, dier, Coleman, who was in the rear when the ser jeant was first knocked down, was at the same instant struck with the butt-end of a whip: and on another of the countrymen coming up, he said, " That is Cole inn, don't strike him" (Coleman is a native of that country); but, however, after some struggle, they suc ceeded in forcing his bayonet from the scabbard, and after striking him violently with it two or three times, they ran on towards the place where the serjeant was, and gave him a desperate stab between the fourth and fifth ribs, and which penetrated to the heart, besides a .severe cut on the head. The soldier, instantly on his murderers leaving him, carried the serjeant into a house., when he almost instantly expired, but never spoke.— Great praise is due to the detachment of police sta tioned at Kilbaron, for their exertions in securing three men, who ate - fully identified, and a Coroner's Jury have found against them a verdict of Wilful Murder. They have been fully committed for trial. One of the murderers has fled, but hopes are entertained of his being apprehended." LOSS OF THE GEORGE THE FOUR7'H. The following is a copy of Captain Prissicic's letter announcing the loss of this vessel : " Breda River, Coast of Africa, July 18, 1824. id DEAR Stn—l am under the necessity of informing you of the loss of the ship King George the Fourth, near this place, on the 16th instant. Having get as far on my passage as Cape La Gullas, we encountered a heavy gale from the N.W. which continued with un abated fury from the 27th cf Jane until the 7th of July, during which time the ship was totally dismasted and water-logged, having sprung a leak under the main chains, whilst both pumps became disabled, and shortly afterwards broke to pieces. With great exertions (in which the passengers and myself shared with the crew), and by the laborious work of baling and lightening, we kept the ship above water during the gale; though with all our exertions we could not get her under eight feet water in the hold. The sugar soon melted and be came molasses. After the gale subsided, we found ourselves in SS S. latitude ; the cotton and cloves, in casks, were washing about in the hold, and rolling from side to side; the stumps of the masts were afloat, and all the beam-stand:eons adrift; when we got up jury masts of such spars as were left on the deck, most being washed overboard, and made sail for the coast in hopes of seeing some homeward bound ship to take us out. Having made the coast about St. Sebastian's Bay without seeing any ship, it was my intention to run the ship on shore in that place, but the wind blowing hard to the north ward, we could not get in. The crew and passengers now became clamorous for the boat to land them, and seeing from the state of the ship (two of her beams having fallen in, and the rest having become loose, her decks and seams being open in all parts), that she could not hang together 24 hours longer, I was reluctantly obliged to consent to launch the only little boat we had. The gale left us, and with considerable difficulty we succeeded in landing, at two trips, the whole of the pas sengers, and such of the crew as were lamed and fatigued during the late gale. At seven o'clock the same evening I quitted the ship with sixteen men, and attempted to land where the others had done ; they made a fire to guide us, but the surf had made so high, it became impossible. After rowing all night, in a deeply-laden little boat, we landed •at this place the next morning. The wind having changed during the night, the ship drove on shore a few miles below this place ; and to prove to you how far she must have gone, that although she drove on a sandy beach, where there was little surf, in an hour afterwards the beach was covered with her planks and timbers. Neither myself nor the passengers have saved a single article. All my papers, mails, and everything were left on board : pro bably they may c.sst up in time. (Signed) " JOHN PRISSICK." SINGULAR CIRCUMSTANCE.—On the 29th October, Peter,son of William bl'Clumpha, Bridgeton, a boy then about three years of age, got from a relation, who was upon a friendly visit to the family, a halfpenny, which he unfortunately put into his nit.uth and swallowed. He, however, continued in a good state of health for the space of nine months,wh•nn he was taken sudd-nly ill with a vomiting, and an obstruction in his bowels, whici continued notwithstanding the united exertions of Drs. Cita:asses and 'financial, for four or five days, since that time he has been in a very poor state of health, so much so that in fact little hope has been entertained of his recovery; but on Tuesday, the 22d instant, to the no small surprise of all ac quainted with the circumstance, while he was in his father's arms, he vomited the lia:lpenn Y , after it bad been in his stomach nearly elcern montli. The halfpenny lies at our ofh;e fur the inspection of the curiotts. The King's head is almost entirely disiolved.— Glavow Jcurnal.

LATE ACCIDENT :mit WATERLOO-BRIDGE -him Yesterday afternoon an Inquest was held at St. Thomas's Hospital, on the body of John Brown, and also on a man whose name is unknown, who were killed by ,the falling of a. wall, near Waterloo-bridge, on Mon day last. The witnesses proved that the men were en gaged in cleaning bricks under the wall, and that they had been advised to move away, but that they appre henzieJ there seas no danger while the wall was cutting: Mr. Broom (of the Kent-road), the master, was of the same o;•inion, and he directed the bricks to be cleaned. The Jury said that buildings should be taken down with more caution. The girders had been removed in tl , e first instance, which ttley considered the primary cance of the accident. The Conosett stated, that in his opinion the death of the unfortunate men arose from accident, nbtwith standing it appeared that Mr. Broom, in whose service they were employed, might have acted with incaution ; bu: it should be remembered that he placed his own life in the same peril with those who suffered ; hence it was right to infer that he did not apprehend any probable cause for the dreadful occurrence. The Jury returned a verdict of Accidental Death.— Deodand on the bricks, 2s. 6J. THE ENGLISH CEMETERY AT BOULOGNE. The French have enclosed a large plot exclusively for themselves; it is gaily laid out, decorated with flowers and evergreens, as if to mock the corruption it is in tended to honour. In an adjoining field is allotted the resting place of the English : it is filled with the bones of our country men. There is a simplicity suited to the place, and consonant with the British character. There was no weeping willow, no evergreen, to awaken an affected sensibility—the long grass wound about the tomb, and a plain slab recorded the name and age of the deceased. The names of some are the following : Mrs. Gertrude Phillipine King, daughter of the late Baron de Kutzleben, died March 29, 1823. Elizabeth, Countess of Giencairn, daughter of Henry Daniel Erskine, Earl of Elgin, died May 17, 1820. George Peter, fourth son of Peter Moore, M.P. London, died June 24, 1824. Sir Arthur Forbes, died February 8,1823. Major-General Isaac tinting, Ist Grenadier Guards, died Aug. 6, 1822. Sir Isaac Page, Bart. of the Royal Fuzileers, died on the 20th of June, 1824. In a plain tomb the remains of the once gay and dissipated Butler Danvers are laid. He closed a life of pleasure, embittered only by domestic sorrows, arising from his own intemperate conduct, at Boulogne, on the 26th of June,lB2o. No small degree of interest was excited by the fol lowing inscription, and by learning the accident which it records : " Sacred to the memory of the most !mitered Emily, Countess de Very, eldest daughter of the late Charles Locke, Esq. and Cecilia, his wife, who met her death by an afflicting accident in the streets of Boulogne, at a quarter before four on Thursday, Sept. 19,1822, at the age of 25 years." This unfortunate Lady was an English woman of great beauty and accomplishment, married to the Count de Very, a French Gentleman of consideration. She suf fered a great deal on her first confinement, and her life was for some time despaired of, but youth and a good constitution bore her up, and she gradually recovered. The very first day she was able to take the air, her light carriage was run down by one of the heavy waggons in ,the Rue des Veillards--the horse having thrown the driver, and set off at speed from the Upper Town, down the steep hill which connects it with the harbonr. At the bottom of the hill it came in contact with and over turned the carriage of the Countess, and the ill-fated Lady was killed on the spot. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. -..-- GUILDHALL. A decent-looking old nun, named Wm. Somers, applied to the sitting Magistrate, Mr. Alderman AsiaLar, yesterday, for his ad vice and assistance, under the following circumstances :—He had, he said, pledged a Bible at the shop of Mr. Baylis, pawnbroker, No. 41, Aldersgate-street, for 10s. on the Yd of September, 11123, and he now produced the duplicate to that effect : on the 4th of September last, two days after it was out of time, as it is called, he applied to redeem it, offering the principal and interest ; but he was then told that it was forfeited and had been sold. He bad, how ever, subsequently seen, it exposed for sale in Mr. Baylis's shop window, marked price 41.45. On this he renewed his application to be slowed to redeem it, but that had been refused, Mr. Baylis standing strictly to the Act of Parliament, that the pledge was for feited, and not being a pledge above 10s. he was not obliged to send it for public sale by auction. Mr. Alderman !ince:- said this was certainly a bard ease, but he feared that under the Act of Parliament, the pledge not being above los. and out of time, if the pawnbroker persisted, he, as a Magistrate, could not interfere. Mr. Beresford (the chief clerk) said, he did not doubt but that the complainant might recover in an action of trover. Indeed, a decision to that effect had lately taken place in the Court of King's Bench. Mr. Alderman ANSLIIT—That may be all very right, but this poor fellow cannot afford to bring an action of trover. The Alder man then directed Brand, the Marshalman, to accompany the poor man to Mr. Baylisiand urge the peculiar hardship of the case. BOW-STREET. New WAT OF currantuso • SUIT..—•A respectable-looking man, litho described himself as a tailor, applied fur the assistance of the Magistrate, under the following ircumstances: A Mr. B. applied to him for a suit of clothe*, and gave him a re ference to a Mr. C. He accordingly waited upon Mr. C. whom he found living in rather elegantly furnished apartments, and having propnurded the necessary inquiries respecting Mr. B. Mr. C. re plied—" My dear Sir, I know but little of him, and what little I do know is nothing to his credit; I would advise you to have nothing at all to do with him." The tailor thanked Mr. C. for his candour, and withdrew, determined to have nothing at all to do with Mr. B. Nest day, Mr. C. called upon him, and ordered a suit of clothes—" I shall give you no reference," said he—." I ant a Lieutenant in the Royal Navy—l also hold a situation in the Ad miralty Deparimeni, ind I shall leave you W. as a deposit in hand." , He then carelessly tossed down the 51. saying he would pay the re mainder when the clothes were sent hone; and the tailor bowed hint out very politely, not doubting but he had got a good customer. In due time be sent home the clothes, in value about 101. but the sf. was all he gut for them, for Mr. C. left home the Sault day, and, upon inquiry it was found that he was neither an Admiralty clerk nor a . Lieutenant in the Royal Navy. The tailor was therefore of opinion that the application of Mr. B. and the reference to Mr. C.' and all the rest of it, was a swindling con piracy to get a suit of clothes at one-third of their value. The Magistrate was of the sante opinion, but could render no as. sigtance, because the acceptance of the three pour.ds on account had made the remainder a simple contract debt. In the course of the day a similar application was made to the Magistrate by a boot:maker, who bad been cheated in like manner. Two yours men. named Ivory and Doris, were committed to Newgate for trial, charged with having stolen 154 in cash from the; bar of the Cheshire Cheese public-house, in r.s.sex-sueet, Strand. • MARLBOROUGH STREET.. Yesterday, Count San Antonio attended at this Office,-before Mr. DI ea, in consequence of a most extraordinary outrage that. Was committed on hit person, on Tuesday night, aritingout of the following affair:— R (1 6,41 Oesebrook, the Count's valet de.chanibre, was brought up, charged by Dacey a patrol, of St. George's, Illanover-square, with having obstructed him in the execution of his duty, and attempting to rescue a prisoner, named John Chitty, out of his custody no Tuesday night. The obstruction and attempted rescue complained of were, that as he (llacey) was conveying the Wan Chitty (who bad abused hint whilst un duty, and struca him a blow on the rye) IQ Mount•street watch-house, the Count's servant caught him (Daces') by the co?, and told hint he had used the man very' ithanwfully, and teque,!e I to know what be had done to deserve it? Dacey made 'o ans‘e, r, but ordered the watchman to take hint (th servant) into custody, for attempting to rescue the man Chitty. Ile was d ragged to axe watch-house, charged with that offence, and locked up. The servant said, that about twelve o'clock on Pnesday nighr,i l was sitting up for the Count, when he beard the watchman's rattle spring. Ile ran out, and saw Chitty in the hands its two watch. men, and the patrol beating him most unmercifully over the head with his rattle. lie did ndt remain, but returned home to 1.4 master's house, in Hanover-square ; and when he reached the s•-e, they passed him on the way to the watch-hawse with Chitty. ji.: certainly did lay - hold of the watchman's coat, and inquired what the man had done to be so ill-treated? when he himself was dragged te the witch-house, as was also the Count San Antonio, his mister. The Count was then sworn.—He stated that he had a•charge tti make against the patrol, of as gross an outrage as was ever c,:r. neitted on any Gentleman. About twelve o'clock at night he was returning - home from Long's Hotel, Bond-street ; when in Charier street, Hanevcr-square, he SCal surprised to tee his servant, within , ' his hat, bring dragged along; in a most savage planner, by 'elm.: watchmen. lie heard the servant repeatedly say, " ik.dt e-.,,, me, I'll go quietly." Witness at first felt alarmed, thialti.ig tk ; something had happened at his house, and asked the watchmea %eh.. he had dune? One of them -told him he cried to rescue t:te r'-. soner, and that they were going to take Mm to the watch-11w,, %Vitness told them if he had done so to take him by all means, bi„ ; not to ill-use him, upon which one of the watchnien told him Itlic Count) to mind his own business. Witness kept .following, an,: when in Brook-street, Decry, the patrol, ordered the watchmen tc take charge of " that Gentleman" (pointing to the Count). Th e "watchmen obeyed his orders, and he was (jugged id hike nianr.tr throUgh the streets to the watch-house. When he arrived there, .11acey behaved most impudently, and although he knew he w.i Count San Antonio, be kept alluding to him as Vila .1/r. ilatioi;., and insisted on the night-constable taking charge of him, but alt.; some expostulation on the part of the !atter, be was permitted :u go about his business. Th'e Count said, iu his opinion, a more flagrant outrage had not "been committed, and called to: the interference of the Magistrate.. Dacey endeavoured to justify his conduct, when he was inter rupted by the Magistrate, who told him, in the lira place, be did wrong in taking the Count's valet into custody for the attempt :* rescue, when there was not the slightest ground for it ; and has conduct towards the Count himself was most eatraordinary. A more infamous cue of misconduct had never been before Ilia:, and he would make an example of him; as a warning to other. to be more circumspect in the perforinance of their duty --The valet was than discharged; and .heir. Dram ordered Dacey to be ma pended for one mouth, for the outrage on Count San Antonio. MA RY- LA-ISON NE. Among the apylkants - for orders for parochial relief was the wife of a convict, under sentence of transportation, named Krces. She was the confidential servant of a Lady at the West-end of the town, and decamped with a young man, to whom she was subsequcntly married, carrying off a large quantity of jeweUery am: plate. They were apprehended an the Continent, and underwent several ex aminations at slow-street about six months ago ; and at the 0 . ,a Bailey, the plea of marriage procured the escape of the applicant. She has ever since dragged on a miserable existence in the most ab ject poverty; and she was now sent to the parish she had last slept ir.. .WORSLI IP-STREW!: Clarks Hopping, who is employed at a fiat-mill, on Hounslow Heath, was charged with ill-treating two boys, named titmice , ' and Jones, who had been sent there from Snoteditch Workhouse. it consideration of their board and lodging. The buys stausl, that the.. bad nothing to complain of as to the quantity or food, but they we:, only allowed a slice of bread and some stir.about for breakfast ; meat was frequently tainted; the fat skimmed off the pot was they had at supper to go with their bread ; and sometimes ill.), hail ' only peas boiled in the skimmed liquor for dinner. • Th. it coairiaar ' against the prisoner was, that he used to kick and brat then, st verely.—The defendant admitted beating them with a leather strap, though he denied the kicking, and was, therefore, held to bail, the Magistrate holding that his employer could not delegate to him any power to chastise. As it appeared the children were forced t o w o rt all nig ht every ether week at this factory, and there was no separa tion if any of them became ill, the Magistrates prohibited the huisls Officers from sending any more of their poor there. The revenue of the hal hour of Aberdeen, for the year just ended, amounted to 10,6001., and the cleat stir pls. after payment of lute; est and charges, was ..bout 2,0001. The shore dues alone yielded 9,1551. beilig an excess of upwards of 1,2001. beyond the produce of the preceding year. The savings upon the guildry, and other funds, also under the charge of the Magistrates, was about I,SBOI. A still farther saving will arise upon the har bour funds, by the reduction of the interest upon bor :owed money from 5 to 4 per cent. which will take ef fect at Martinmas next. Persons have observed fellows selling birds, which they place nn their hands, when they appear quite tame and tractable. This is.done by confining their pinions with threads tied round their body, and such ci uelt; cannot be too much deprecated. The bird, if purchased by an individual unacquainted with the circumstance, and the ligatures are kept on, will die in extreme agony in the course of a few hours. MARRIED.
