Henault, &Ars. relative to an attempt watch was made by two girls, apprentices to Mr. John' Batiks, lace-manufac turer, in the Orangv.road, Bermondsey, to set his extensive pre mises on fire. The names of the delinquents are, lour Guthman Jefeiies, and Louisa Bangles ; the forme, was hound apprentice by her parents, and her companion by the parish of Clapham. Althinizh both of them bad nearly completed the term of their apprentice.hips (seven years), nu complaint of ill usage could have been alleged against their employer. The first witness examined was a girl named Matthews, an ap prentice in the saute manufactory. who stated as Gallows t—Uo Tuesday last, when all the apprentices were stated at the dinner tabk, Jefferies, who sat next to me, whispered in my ear, and said, " Matthews, I shall set this house on fire next Tbursiley." Upon my expressing astonishment at such an observation, and asking lux what could put suci a thing into her head ? in answer she replied, " I do not like the work, and am afraid of running away, for tear of being afterwards brought back and punished." She also said that she should be assisted in her plan to bprn the house by Ihnington. The fallowing day, W4.sinestlay, witness bend Billington and Jefe ries in conversation together; the Cornier of whom was entiravour- Ins to prevail on tke latter to set fire to the house that night, but .1.-fferies ref ased, saying, that all their fellow-apprentices might stand a chance of being hurtled in their beds, if they set fire to that which they had placed in the cellar. The next morning, Thursday, about six o'clock, when witness came down stairs from the bedarouni, she sass the two prisoners standing tugether at the• head of the cellar stairs, they were apparently talking about what they intended to do, for soon afterwards witness observed Billington provide herself with a tinderbox, with which she struck a light, and having done so, gave the lighted candle to Jefferies, who, upon receiving it, ins- Mediately ran down stairs into the cellar. Billington remained be hind, and did not proceed with her companion. After a short int n. val, Jefferies came running up stairs, and exclaimed in witness's hearing, to the other prisoner, " that she had done the thing."— S• 00 afterwards, the witness added, a dense smoke arose out of the cellar, which filled the staircase, and caused a strung scull of fire. In about three minutes subsequent to Jefferies having returned from the cellar, Mr. Simpson, the Superintendant, came relining down staira,who, having entered the cellar, the smoke soon ceased. The witness, in answer to the Magistrate's interrogatories, said she did not meal the conversation she bad overheard, being fear. ful the girls would have been punished. Mr. Simpson said, on de scending the cellar, he found the fire to have been caused by a mats of old rags daubed over with printer's ink.—They were remanded.

The Bay was literally studded with saiiittg-beats of every class.

T.' crown the whole, the puns of !he Citadel disehatged their thunders at' tv eke o'clock, in honour of his Majesty's Ct.ronation linty ; and the shipping in the Sound, between the lslxtil an 1 the Hain, and in Havtoase, which were gaily ntnamente I with the colours of d;fferent nations, f.tod x nova Salute at out. Th! weather was (spores &Rely hot (the therMometer standing as high as 86 in the shade). At rievin eenck precl•elp, the *nal gun, which was fixed ..0 the wecte rn c xtreroir y of the llov, where the Committee took their stand, lin d, when the yachts w Well had been entered for the first class prize being ready at the starting boat got tinder way; they were the Arrow cutter, 84 tons, Joseph Wells, Esq. colour red and wince; Jadc-o*- Lantern cutter, 140 tons, J.

The Jack-o'- Lantern from press of sail, after a cot-titterede effort to *recover the :round she had lost, carried away her topmast just outside the Breakwater. This fine vessel was con sequently obliged to discontinue her efforts. The Arrow and Scor pion were now left to contend with each other for the prize, the termer bad evidently the advantage in point of sidling, so that she rounded the starting-boa: the first time nine minutes and a half be foreher adversary--notwithstanding this, the latter, with a proper spirit. did not lase sight of the object to he attained, and continued ha efforts with considerable perseverance. The baffling winds and strong flood tide which succeeded the breeze, enabled her to gain conilderable ground on her adversary, for the Arrow getting into the tide at the west ere. of the Breakwater, was presmtly swept away by ft to leeward, r.nd 11-. us, by en unforeseen chance, was de prived of the advantage which she had so stoutly contended for; whilst the Scorpion, by having tacked further to the southward,was favoured by a geode breeze, which enabled her to weather the sr ark boat at the west end of the Breakwater, and finally to arrive at the starting-boat first. The first prize was. however, awarded to chi Arrow, in. consequence of tie Scorpion having touched one of the station boats !n round,which was contrary to the rules of the course. it half-past eleven the second class started, viz.—Julia cutter, James Weld, Col 42 tons, camas white and red burger; Emerald, ditto, J. Syrnet:Js, Esq..sr. tons, red burger; Lord of the Isles yawl, Cal. Seal, 45 tote:, red nag at the main. Two of these vessels, in consequence of the baffling winds, were viable to zet round the different station boats the second time. The J.ord of the Isles, the only vessel which did so, having ran foul of er.e of the station boats, it was agreed by the remaining vessels, the Julia and the Emerald, to give up further exertion, the wind bay irg entirely failed. Tile third class, for want of a sufficient number of competitors aid not sail. This disappointment was not owing to a deficiency of yachts in the harbour ; but the qualities of the Queen Mab, which , was the Ent entered on this list, being so well known, no yacht could he trend to dispute the match with her with any chance of success, although the Committee offered to wave the conditions that not less than three vessels should dispute the prize, if another yacht could have been found to enter into competiti on with the seen Mab. At twelve o'clock precisely, the th ese Four Class started. They were—Erato (yawl), James Hooper, qsn tons and a half, colours white, with a red cross; Little Venus (yawl), Jam es Price, Esq: eleven tons, red ; Anne (yawl), Mr. John Dare, si tons and a half. white. After a spirited contest, this race was won by the Anne, having arrived two minutes before her adversaries. rue cups were very hvairtifu4 and considerably exceeded in value those of last year. The largest, or Ladies' Cup, held three 4i arts, and weighed upwards of seventy ounces. It was supported a fine figure of Neptune, riding on the Ocean in a car, com pOnd of three Dolphins—a solid cast unit - ay for the occasion, d highly admired foil the beauty of it:: symmetry. On the body t.• the cup, was an excellent tepreaent. ! tion of a boat race, very 'brought e- the handles as !ere, double-twisted ; solid end there was . alto a numerous assemblage of the heads of our Public Departments, and the Officers of the Army and Navy. • SICOND DAY. • Wednesday, the concourse of people was not so . great ; but there was still an immense number of spec-' tators assembled on the Hoe. The wind blew a stilt, breese from the N.E. ani eight vessels started for the prize, namely; John and Mary, .lobit Wyatt, white burgee; Turnehapel, Robert Mitchell, union jack; Elizabeth, William May, red bargee; Venus, Lewis Rundle, red and white pilot-flag; Caroline, Charles Tucker, red en , ign ; Two Brothers, Thomas Good. ridge, blue burgee; Ann and Mary, Thomas Foster, blue peter ; Liberty, Edward Alder, ted ensign, with tree of liberty. So great was the anxie:y of these vessels to start,, that six moved off when the preparatory gun was fired, 1 and thus obtained an advance of five minutes on the Venus and Two Brothers, which waited the proper signal. The race was very beautiful, and well con tested, and the manner in which the diffaent vessels were manageJ, was very creditable to the seamen on board. By the regulations of the Course, Vie Prizes of eight scv , :reigns, and f ur sovereignr, are cons'dered to have been won by the Venus and the Two Brothers, which, although starting five minutes after, returned within tv o minutes of their adversaries. Four row-boats, manned by four men each, started for the prize of four sovereigns, which was woo by a gig belonzing to the Uri tannia, FIJg-ship at this port. LAW REPOR r.
