V SECRET SORROW. There is no wrinkle o i my brow, No sadness in mine ere. Who ever saw my to i-drops flow, Or heard my plain err sigh? A nil ever jocund is my smile, And joyous is my tongue ; Who then could gue ; how, all the while, My heart of heart; is wrung? While jests are flowing from my lip— While loudest is my laugh— Or while with thou who larcest sip The cere• ring bowl I qu:.lf Who could suspect that ;dl inside No touch of joy could feel ? Or that the sini;ing tact- should hide .1 soul of lireissi stc,l? Yet, so it is. No csre have I For aught I ssy or do; Deep in Jon grave my fond hopes lie, Under the church-yard yew ! I live wi.hout a thought—an end— A purpose to pursue; And care not how through life I wend, So that it were pasted through! But why should I my friends torment With sorrows all my own? It gives my bosom more content To feel them quite alone. And therefore do I smooth my brow, And brighten up mine eye, And check the tear, though prompt to flow, And stop the bursting sieb EXtRAURDI SA RV PHENOMENON. -T We gave an account of a phenomenon of a very extraordinary nature which occurred on Thursday last at Crowhill, Haworth, near Keighley, in York shire. By some the convulsion is thought to have Leen caused by an earthquake, but it seems rather to have been merely the bursting of an immense bog— accelerated, in all probability, by the great quantity of rain which has recently fallen in the neighbourhood. For a considerable distance round the spot where the phenomenon is said to have occurred, the land is a large swamp, in which the water has been accumulating for centuries. The first intimation which the inhabitants of Leeds received of this very singular eruption, was from the appearance of the river Aire, which on Friday morning was discovered to be unusually tur bid, and swollen consider ably beyond its usual bounds. On Saturday and Sunday mornings quantities of fish were seen floating dead on the surface of the water. At Horsforth, about six miles from Leeds, no less than two hundred stone of trout and perch were taken out of the river, evidently poisoned, or rather suffocated, by the Stygian stream that blended with their native element. The Aire still continues as turbid as it was on Friday, and totally useless is the water for all domestic purposes. It is still of a deep chocolate colour, the water of which, after filtration, yields a black subtile residuum, with a strong smell resembling that of peat or bog.earth. The principal part of the deposit was, of course, made nearest the spot where the eruption took place. • A Court of Proprietors of the London Docks assem bled at one o'clock on Thursday, at their house in Prince's-street, for the purpose of considering the expe diency of enlarging the Works of the Company. Mr. Solly in the Chair. After considerable discussion, the following resolution was carried by a considerable ma jority :—" That Directors be empowered to enlarge the docks and warehouses of the Company, as to them may seem proper, provided the expenses do not exceed the suns of 200,000/." The Court was then dissolved. The workmen employed in laying down pipes for lighting the Church of St. Paul, Covent-Garden, with gas, have discovered beneath the great western portico, a sepulchral vault, which appears to have been unob served at the time the present Church was built. In this vault were found seven leaden coffins, with the colter cases of wood, entirely decomposed, and nothing remaining inside except a quantity of sawdust at the bottom of each, and a couple of thigh-bones in one of them. They bear engraved inscriptions of various dates between 1717 and 1732, and on the lid of them is a wellsexecuted cast of the face of the deceased in high relief, underneath which is the following inscription : " Judith, Lady Viscountess Coningsby, died 23d April, 1752, aged 88 years." SINGULAR DEATH.—An Inquest has been held at Chevington, Lincolnshire, on John Wallis, a labouring man, who died from drinking beer infected with some poisonous quality. The beer had been brewed by the deceased, and put into the cask, which he bought about a year ago of some person unknown, at Berry. This cask had been used to keep a ferret in, which had died there, and it was afterwards made up in a smaller size by a cooper, who cleaned it. Some of the beer was drank by the deceased, Iris wife, and son, on Thursday week, and they became sick shortly after. Several other persons had afterwards partaken of it, and had subse quently become ill ; but it did not appear that any sus picion was entertained of the cause of their illness till after the man's death, which took place on Friday. The remainder of the beer had been thrown away by the advice of the neighbours, and there was no mode of ascertaining its quality. The state of the body, and the time which had elapsed, rendered it impossible to ascer tain any material tact from dissection, and the Jury being convinced that the death was caused innocently, returned a verdict of " Accidental Death." Wetsit POETRY.—At the Royal Eisteddfod, or Con gress of Bards and Minstrels, held in Powys un Thurs day, and at which 1,-'rd CLIVE presided, Mr. J. JONES (Myllin), Mr. °west (Meirion), Mr. o.Wlia.taists (Car narvon), and Mr. THOMAS EDWARDS, of Corwen, re cited in succession, and in a most animated manner, such verses as they had respectively composed for the occasion ; and after the company were entertained with some beautiful airs by the band, the Rev. WALTER DAVIES 4-1 Manatoo, delivered the following report: 64 The distinguisising character of Cambrian poetry, for many centuries at lea , ,t, is that of a complicated rhyme, called Cyngli.ine.,! or alliterative—symphony of consonants rendered harmonious by a a correspondent antiphony of vowel sounds. Whether this be the most eligible mode of cornroting Welsh verse is the point at issue between our modern sectaries. We must, how ever, beg leave to state, that when a happy idea is conveyed by cygnhaned through the auricular portal to the judgment-hail of the sensoi ium, where is seated the angelic mind, with a swiftness outstripping the swift-winged arrows of light, the effect of such a con comitant and instantaneous influence upon Cambrian taste is scarcely desti inahle ! " A Se' jeant's guard of the Ist Royals were mostly killed arid wounded in a rencontie with tire country people, in the neLl.baurhooti of Casrlebar, county Mayo, while endeavouring ;a protect an illicit still s‘ hich they seized, and which ss as 'weird by the mcb. The bocies of some of the soldiers have not yet been found. NEW COMBINATION ACT. -:,~- ' . Friday, the Sd instant, appeared before two of his Majesty's Justices of the Peace, R. Myfirt and W. Meat, Jun. weavers, in Green-street, Glasgow, in complaint at the instance of Mr. P. Hutchison, ma nufacturer in that place. The complaint went en to state, that a conspiracy had been entered into by the weavers and some manufacturers, to root the plaintiff out of trade; in consequence of which a mob had en tered the shop of Andrew Millar, weaver, who was at the time working a web to the complainant, and the defendants were recognised among the mob, and by! threats and intimidation endeavoured to force the said Andrew Millar to return his web unfinished. When the defendants were brought before the Court they denied the charge, upon which Alexander Millar, evidence for the plaititiff, being sworn, stated, that on Thursday, the 25th of August, while he was peaceably engaged at his usual empluyment, a number of persons, to the amount of thirty or thereabouts, entered the shop, among whom he recognised the defendants. One of therm in quired if any work belonging to Mr. Hutchison was wrought there? Witness replied that his web belonged to Mr. Hutchison. Some person in the crowd then ad vised him to take :he web out when the cut was finished, and return the same. Witness refused to do so, and expressed his determination to finish the web. Witness recollected nothing further of what was said. On being asked if he was any way afraid, or suspected danger from the number of the mob, and the manner in which he was addressed? he said he was not at all intimidated, and no threats were used to frighten him, the witness therefore considered himself perfectly safe. Witness also stated, that he had joined the Weavers' Association ; but four or five days after the mob entered the shop, he ordered his name to be erased from the list. Several witnesses for both parties were afterwards sworn and examined, but nothing of any consequence was elicited; and the Court acquitted the defendants, deciding, that by an error in the complaint, the facts of combination and intimidation were not legally proved. The rains in the neighbourhood of Chester have been very heavy this week, with a likelihood of continuance. The very small quantity of grain in the fields is there fore placed in great jeopardy. Thursday evening, an explosion by gas took place at the shop of Messrs. Hart, linen-drapers, Holborn-hill, which was fortunately the occasion of no further serious consequences than the totally demolishing of every pane of glass in the window where the accident happened. SIR HUMPHRY HUMPHRY DAVY, Bart. President of the Royal Society, has arrived at his house in Grosvenor-street, from Norway. Sir HUMPNEY has been engaged during the months of July and August in pursuing various philosophical researches, for which , the Admiralty granted him the use of the Comet steam boat. He has ascertained that his principle of protect ing the copper-sheathing of ships by the contact of 1-200 of iron, is perfectly successful, even in the most rapid sailing and in the roughest sea; and Dr. TIARKS, under his superintendence, and by direction of the Board of Longitude, has connected, by chronometrical obser vations, the trigonometrical surveys of Denmark and Hanover with that of England, so that the triangula tion of a great part of Europe may be now said to form one system, M. ARAOO and Captain ;CATER having two years ago connected the surveys of England and France by observations between Calais and Dover. In the course of this last expedition to the North'Seas, the longitude of the Naze of Norway, a point of great im portance in navigation, has been accurately ascertained, and some other useful data for correcting the nautical maps of Europe gained. HOUSE 01 LOADS. IRISH ASTRAL KIRWAN N. O'CoNwo&.—ln this cause the defendant, Mr. Valen tine O'Connor, had appealed from the order of the Lord Chancellor MANNIRS, di' ecting him to complete the purchase of an estate in the county of Galway, which he had bought under a decree of the Court; and to pay the purchase money, £19,000, into Court immediately. Mr. O'Connor paid the purchase money into Court, and instantly appealed from the order, com plaining of the injustice of holding him to the purchase of an estate with a bad title, as that was, and desiring to be exonerated from the purchase. The hearing of this appeal lasted three days, and the House pronounced judgment upon it on the very day before it rose for the year. It reversed the order of Lord MANNERS; exo nerated Mr. O'Connor entirely from the purchase, and ordered that he should be repaid his purchase money, 1:19,000, with interest, and all his costs. CALEDONIAN CANAL..—In the Inverness Journal of Friday last, we notice a list of the vessels which have navigated the Caledonian Canal during last month.— The number is 121 of all descriptions ! Several of these, we observe, are carrying off wool to Hull and Liverpool. Others pass with lime, slates, and stones for buildings; and a very great number with salt, hers ings, staves, deals, &c. &c. to and from Dumf . ' ies, Belfast, Londonderry, Liverpool, Newcastle, atc. Three steam vessels are advertised as plying on the Canal between Inverness and this city. This great national undertaking will, we have not the smallest doubt, daily increase in prosperity, and add facilities to the trade of this country. As soon as the Canal is eighteen feet deep, which will be next summer, large merchantmen will be able to pass through from th?. Eastern to the Western Sea, and vice versa, and then the Canal will certainly be frequented by a great number of ships en gaged in the foreign trade of this country. LONGEVITY.—In the commune of Esladens, in the de partment of the Upper Garonne, there died on the 22d ult. a man of the name of Stephen Baque, who was op wards of 124 years of age. He was born on the 16th of January, 1700. He was latterly called The Saint, from his disposition to visit, as a pilgrim, the celebrated churches or miraculous shrines which abound in Spain. He had several times paid his devotions at the shrine of St. James, of Gallicia, and that of our Lady of Mont serrat. Fur the last sixty years of his life, he constantly traversed the Pyrenees, collecting medicinal herbs, and ' living on the charity of the peasantry. The excess of alms which his extraordinary reputation for sanctity obtained, he distributed among the less fortunate poor ; and, relying on general benevolence, he repeatedly re fused the succours even of Government. His grotesque chess excited surprise, and his piety commanded respect wherever he went. Occupied to the last with the ex erci es of prayer and mortification, he refused the offer of a bed on which to rest his dying limbs, and begged I , ermission to expire rather on his pallet of straw. His memory, which continued unimpaired to the last, was so .tion g as to enable him to recognize his friends after LO or 60 years of absence, and recount to youngsters of 80, ti , e occurrences which took place in the days of their gr.andfathers. • • • • • Ia O . • • • DESTRUCTIVE FIRE. :•,-.14111191.1 Last night, about half-past nine o'clock, a destruc tive fire broke out in Rosemary Branch-lane, Rosemary. lane, Tower-hill. The fit, is supposed to have origi. natei in the house of a cooper. The neighbourhood is inhabited by foreign Jews, who were seen ronning about in all directions in 4 state of nudity. The surrounding inhabitants in Rosemary-lane were so overpowered with the unexpected visitation, that they refbsed to open their doors to the fugitives, doubting the truth -of their lamentable story, till they raised their eyes and saw the whole horizon in a blaze. They cried out in a pitiful tone—" Let us in—we be poor foreigners—fo reign Jews—have lost all—nothing left I" They were admitted, and remained agonized spectators of the de voi,ting element around them. The fire-engines now arrived, but could only act in a partial manner, in con sequence of the contracted situation of the buildings.— At first the glass began to crack, then the frame fell in, and all seemed quiet for about five minutes, when the explosion of the next window announced that the interior was in flames. Then came the yell of distress for the fate of the next house. " Insured, insured !" for a moment relieved the dolorous ejaculation, till the fire seized a house not under the protection of an Insurance Com pany. For those houses which were ;nsured every person seemed perfectly easy, except the firemen. who exerted all their might to extinguish them. Not less than twenty fires have taken place in this immediate vicinity during the last year, and several within a few yards of this very spot. GARRICK'S FIRST PLAY-BILL. When Garrick quitted Ipswich, where he played a I few nights in a provincial company, he repaired to Lon don ; but it appears that he was unable to obtain an engagement at any of the great Houses. He was then obliged to join the Company in Goodman's-fields, who, to avoid being sent to prison as rogues and vagabonds, for acting without a license, presented Plays to their audience gratis, charging them only for the Concerts. Here it was that the British Boscius, trembling between hope and fear, made his first bow as Richard the Third The applause which he received was tumultuous; the' Public caught with admiration the brilliant sparks of genius which he emitted, and with their fostering hand bore him triumphantly along the current of popu larity ; they placed him at the very head of his profes sion, and made him an object of wonder and admira tion to the whole world. the following copy of the bill which announces his first appearance is curious : " Goodman's Fields, Oct. 19, 1741.—At the Theatre in Good man's Fields, this day, will he performed a Concert of Vocal and Instrumental Music, divided into two parts.—Tickets at three, two, and one shilling.—Places for the boxes to be taken at the Fleece Tavern, next the Theatre.—N.B. Between the two parts of the Concert will be presented an Historical Play, called the Ufe and Death of King Richurd 111. ; containing the distresses of King Henry VI.; the artful acquisition of the Crown by King Richard; the murder of young King Edward V. and brother in the Tower; the landing of the Earl of Richmond, and the death of King Richard in the memorable Battle of Fosworth-field, being the last that was fought between the Houses of York and Lancaster; with other true historical passages. The part of King Richard by a Gentleman• (who never appeared on any Stage) ; King Henry, Mr. Giffard ; Richmond, Mr. Marshall ; Prince Edward, Miss Hippedey; Duke of York, Miss Naylor, &c. &c.— With an Entertainment of Dancing, &c.—To which will be added, a Ballad Opera, in •ne act, called the Virgin Unmasked. Both of which will be performed by persons gratis for diversion.— The Concert to begin at six o'clock exactly." • Garrick. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STRRET. Yesterday, Jelin Chatierisin, William Wafer Ma Gay, William Snell, Alexander Skated, and Henry Heyord, all young men, were brought up in the custody of Bond, on a warrant, charged with having caused the death of Richard John Bull and John Freeman, by running down a wheiry off Chelsea. 'The defendants composed the crew of the boat which me against Sharp's wherry, in which were fifteen persons, two of whom were drowned, and the warrant for their apprehension was issued immediately after the close of the examination of Sharp the waterman, the particulars of which we published in Thursday's Paper. Two young women who were in the beat with the defendants, attended voluntarily to give their evidence. After a very long examination, Mr. HALLS said, that in his opi nion the defendants bad been guilty of great misconduct, and the consequences of their misconduct were of a most serious and me lancholy nature. He should, therefore, take means to (alone their attendance at the next Surrey Sessions and in the interim the prosecutor's legal advisers would determine in what shape to pro ceed against them. The defendants were all held to bail, in two sureties of •C4oeach, to answer aU such things as may be objected against them at the ensuing Sessions. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Cauxurr 2o Ahura s.--Yesterday ie;ris Cuthbert, an assistant in the stables of Mr. Gray, a livery.stahle keeper in Shepherd•street, Bond-street, was charged, under Mr. Martin's Act, with erpel treatment to one of his master's horses. Mr. Gray stated, that on Thursday be sent the accused, who at that time was at his country residence at Finchley, to look for a cow which had strayed from a field, and he was desired to go on horseback. On his return home be was intoxicated, and the horse appeared to have been exceed ingly ill-used ; the aboulders, head, and eyes, bad been dreadfully braten.—The ostler of the Bald-faced Stag public.house stated that he saw the prisoner brat the horse in the most brutal manner.— Mr.Tuffin, of 72,Great Queematreet, Lincoln's Inn-fields,described to the Magistrate the barbarous and unfeeling conduct of the ac. cuscd towards the horse ; by striking it with a thick ash stick over its eyes, shoulders, and flanks, without any cause except from sheer wantonness.—The Magistrate said, that the brutality of the pri soner's conduct towards a poor dumb animal was extremely repre hensible, and ordered him to pay a fine of £S.—He was committed for two months to the House of Correction in default. 111 A R Y-LA-BONN E. s Butiout ar.—Thursday evening a young man named Henry Ferris was brought up by John Staples, of this Office, on suspicion of com mitting a daring and extensive robbery, in the house of Mr. Hol land, Cornwall-terrace, Regent's Park. It appeared that on Tuesday evening last, during Mr. Holland's absence, the house was kft in charge of two maid-servants, and about eight o'clock they were alarmed by a loud noise, like the breaking of one of the escrutoires in the parlour, from which they subsequently ascertained it in reality proceeded; but they at the moment were 10 overcome with terror, as to be unable to stir or give an alarm; and on the return of Mr. Holland, it appeared a 'thief had, by jumping over the area rails and opening the parlour window, gained admittance into the house, and plundered a se awake of bills to the amount of £llOO, an d bond of security for them, with ether valuable papers; and also a bag, containing £l9 4s. in silver. It was supposed the thief knew the premises well, as be went direct to the secretaire, and bad not touched se veral articles of plate, which could easily have been carried off.— Information was given at this Office, and Staples, in his search, found the top or flat of a gilt coat-button in the area, which had evidently been broken off in the thief's endeavouring to get in; from his inquiries be learned the prisoner had lived in Mr. Hol land's family, but was discharged ; and also that he was seen about that neighbourhood with a female, on the evening of the robbery. Staples instantly obtained his address, and took him into custody, and on examining his coat found one of the buttons behind had been broken from the stem, or shank, which exactly fitted the bit in his possession. The prisoner said, he was at the West London Theatre, and in going in the button was broken; he was in the Theatre all that evening. --lie was remanded. QUEEN-SQUARE. Edda* and Modes were charged with resetting a prisoner, and assaulting a constable o f St. Margaret's. The constable stated, that ou Monday night he was called upon by another constable, who stated that a burglary had been commit ted, and he had information where two of the thieves were. They went and took the two torn. Tie other constable went to the watch-house first, and as he was taking his prisoner a mob of thieves attacked him, heat him about the head, of which he bore proofs, .C"' "" ,~ r • PRIOR OF LEATHER.

" Upon my word," said the beggar, 11 I understood so." " But, upon my word," rejoined the Magistrate, . 1 I ender:m:l4 otherwise."—The fellow was sent to Bridewell for seven days. UNION-HALL. Yesterday, a man named That Smithers applied to the sitting Ma. gistrate for his advice bow he was to act in getting home his wile, who, he said, had absconded with a black man, named Mick TWO!, who swept the crossings at the corner or Union-street. Black Tom was immediately sent for.—..He had the features of a Hottentot, and upon being atked why he assaulted the complainant, and harboured his lawful wife, replied, " Your honour, I pick up the lady, not Baking she had another husband, and as she and me agree, Ino like to part her, for she is a very good woman to me." Here the complainant's wife, a fine copper-coloured damsel, cam e breathless into the office, and bearing Black Tom's declaration in her favour, ran towards him, and clasping him round the neck, im. printed many kisses on his lips, that resounded through the The officer of the day was ordered to stand between them to pre vent a repetition of those endearments. Black Tom, in continua tion, said, although it would be a hard struggle for him to give cp such a beautiful creature; yet, as she was married, he " supposed" it must be so. The Magistrate told him he was in the right road for Brixton, ii he did not. Black Tom.-oh, your Honour, me give her up now ? Den take her (to the complainant). Ino want her again, me go off to n business in the toad, me no like Brizton ; Goo forbid me see dr tread-mill.—Tom promb.ed to be a good boy henceforward ; and th e complainant and his wife took each other by the arm, and kit the dice, the latter expressing, after all, there was none like a husband.
