RAPIDITY OF LIGHT. The late Mr. Thomas Sikes, of Water Gtuel-row, at Hackney, some years ago made a curious experiment on the passate of Light. He caused large rockets to he let-, off at Canterbury, and others at hackney, of such an enorm-nrs size that they were respectively seen from their . respective stations. By the assistance of ac curate chrorrome tvrs. it was ascertainel that Light ic;ie.l no seasib:c time in taaveili tg from Canterbury to L. , ndon. NI:I.VENCE OF TILE MOON ON THE NERVES. The Physicians generally, or Get many, and some in Englartd, have lately e•tablished a doctrine with respect to lunar influence on Diseases, which corresponds with the notions of Drs. Nl , ade and Sydenhant of old, but which most modern physicians have overlooked, namely, that nearly all our known nervous diseases have their worst paroxysms rear to the periods of new or full moon. They prtipoe to make a division of the lunar, period into four weeks, in the middle of which the changes shallocenr. Now, in this case it is discovered, that there are more nervous affections in thrse weeks in which netv and full Woo happen, than in the weeks marked by the two quarters of the moon. Headaches, in'particular, obey this law. It was of old observed to teAulate the periodical paroxysms of insanity ; and hence the origin of the term lunatic, as applied to madmen. Duren STEAM-VESSELS. - - The Dutch, who have always travelled much more by water than by land, have of late availed themselves of the invention of the steam-boat, and are everywhere sub. stituting steam-vessels for trecheschuts drawn by horses, °a all their canals.

Duncan, of New College, Oxford, have just presented a very fine cast of the 1-aocoon (theonly one taken from the original statue), to the. Radcliffe Library. This celebrated monument of Greek sculp ture was executed in ma:ble by Polydorus, Atheno dorus, and Agesander, the three famous artists of Rhodes.. It was found at Rome, in the ruins of the Palace of Titus, in the beginning of the sixteenth cen tury, under the Pontificate of Julius IL and was de posited in the Farnese Palace. Laocoon, the priest of Apollo and Neptune, with his two sons, is represented with two hideous serpents clinging round his body, gnawing it and injecting their poison. Virgil gives a beautifid description of the circumstance in his se cond ./Eneid. This statue exhibits the most astonishing dignity and tranquillity of mind in the midst of tbe most ex cruciating torments. Pliny says of it, that it is, " opars omnibus, picture et statuarite artis, preferendum ;" and our own Poet, Thomson, tires describes 44 Scnlpture's utmost masterpiece:" The miserable sire, Wrapt with his sons in fate's severest grasp. The serpents, twisting round, their stringent folds Inextricable tie. Such passion here r Such agonies! Such bitterness of pain Seems so to tremble through the tortur'd stone, That the touchl heart engrosses all the view. Almost unmark'd the best proportions pass That ever Greece beheld ; and, seen alone, On the rapt eye th' imperious passions seize ; The father's double pangs, both for himself And sons convuls'd ; to Heaven his rueful look, Imploring aid, and half accusing, cast ; Ws fell despair with indignation mix'd, As the strong-curling monsters from his side Ilis fun-extended fury cannot tear. More tender touch'd, with varied art, his sons All the soft rage of younger pas;ions chew : In a boy's helpless fate one sults oppress'd, While, yet unpierc'd, the frighten'd other tries His foot to steal out of the horrid twine !" A Comet may now be seen soon after sun-set, with a tolerable glass, in the ninth, between the right hand of Bootes and the tail of Drago, tight amen. 2:3 N. dcc. 58. The affair of Mr. Fauntlany has occasioned a great distrust towards paper-money among the farming and ill-informed classes of people in the country. The notes of country banks are 'dosed, and this refusal is becom ing so general in the southern parts of England, as to amount to a very considerable inconvenience. This feeling of the insecurity of Bank notes has arisen evi dently from a general distrust towards banks, caused by . the late disclosures in the case el Fauntleroy. During the late storm, the vicarage house at South leigh, Somersetshire, was comile:ely destroyed by the wind, but happily no lives were lost. Mr. Thorn, of Seaton, a tenant of I'. M. Charter, Esq. lost fifty-two sheep, drowned in the marshes, and several neighbours' sheep, colts, 8;c. 'Miturclay seunight. as Thus. Blevin, a baker, in the asiiil'oyment of Mi. Ball, Fkiiallanc i , Liverp,!ol, was at dinner in the . honse, a circumstance nccurred between his'. fella* Workrien, who had dined, and the servant, which caused a laugh among them, .in Which Blevin heartily joined, and continued his laughter while in the act . ef eating, whim, he rose suddenly from the table, and attempted to put his finger down his throat, to ex 7 tract something which. had 111) ucted it. This he could not effect ; but he made his comrades understand what was the matter, and one of them tried to relieve him with a wire, without success: in the meantime, a stir germ was quickly obtained, but. the poor man died, al though every means were used to extract the substance. On ooetting the throat, a piece of beef, half an ounce in weight, was found in the trachea. Last week a murder was committed near the Tennis Court puilic Lome, at Warmley, al tit forr miles from Bristol. A man nailed Isaac Galdeit, a wag goner, had caused the hot se of one at his neighbours to be pounded ; this man was in the poblic-house drink ing, when several others came in, some of whom began to throw tobacco-pipes at him; this led to further quar relling; and ultimately when Gal:en left the public l i - house to go home, be was* waylaid, knocked down with a large pole, and one of his inhuman companions stabbed him in the forehead with.a huge French clasp knife, the blade of which was broken in the blow; they left him a corpse. Seven 'pea have been taken up as accessories, viz. Robert England. Mark. Whitting, James Caines, Thomas Wiln.ot, Francis Britten, Isaac iitliton, and Samuel Peacock. A Coroner's Inquest sat. . on the body, and brought in a verdict of Wilful rigainA several persons unknown." tie gable end of the c . .ttage• of a labourer named Casvley, near Wootton Bassett, was blown in during the strum of Tuesday se'nnighr, and a fine girl, fourteen years at age, was killed in bed, while two other children, between whom she - Slept, received but.liAtleinPrY• ITHES UNDER. THE 37rn OF 11ENnv ST. BoTOLPH. ALDGATE. Ftiday, the General Tithe Committee was held, when a report to be made to. the Veszty, on their late arclucus proceedings, was read and agreed.to. The report states, amongst other things, that the im propriation was granted by King James I. to indivi• duals fr,r the sum of VOL It afterwards paled into the hands of the Rev. Thomas Kynaston, the .ancestor of the present impropriator, for the sum of 11,4101. (a pretty good proof of the industry of the claimants in taxing the inhabitants); that he (Sir 'l'. Kynaston) af terwards offered to sell the same to the pat ish, together with the r;ght of advowson, for a pet petual annuity of S(X) guineas; that prior to the year 1800, the tithes of both divisions of the parish, in London and Middlesex, continued at about the annual sum of 600/. that they were afterwards increased to about 1,000/. until the present impropriator came into possession, in the year 1804, when they were increased to 1,5001. per annum, and they new amount to between 4,0004 and 5,0001. per annum, although he had redeemed the land-tax upon the same at a valuation of 3.50/. per annum. That the said impropriator, calculating upon the large sums he was tecently receiving of the pat ishioners, had hea vily mortgaged the same,_ and the Committee felt it their bounden duty to endeavour to stem the torrent which was thus overwhelming them, by an application to Parliament. It appeared to the meeting to be clearly evident that ' where arrangements already exist between the clergy and impropriatots and their respective parishioner s, as to the present amount paid for tithe, it is necessary, to prevent future disastrous results and litigation, that the future payment for tithes shall be put upon a fair and equitable footing, through the medium of Parliament. St. Bov)lph, Aldgate, is so circumstanced as to re- Attire that some provision should be made for the officiating Minister. inasmuch as the present large amount paid by the parishioners is swallowed up by the lay impropriator. ST. GRZGORY BY ST. PAUL. A meeting of the Special Committee of this pari►h, appointed in relation to tithes, was also held, when it was unanimously resolved—That the Meeting most cor dially concurred in the opinion expressed by the Special Committee of the Corporation of London, that they conceive the present moment most favourable for an united application to be made to Parliament for an al teration or amendment of the Statute of 37 Hen. VIII. under which the claim of 2s. 91 is made. It appeared that the Meeting felt themselves most particularly called upon on behalf of the Parish of St. Gregory, to co-operate with the rest •f the parishes affected by the above Statute, in a Petition to Parlia ment, for an alteration or amendment thereof, not only for the very powerful reasons contained in the circular ,of the Special Committee of the Corporation of London, as affecting the parishes generally, but more particu larly as thc Parish of St. Gregory, after paying a sti pend for the maintenance of their Rector, had been for many years subject to the imposition of 2s. 9d. in the pound to the Minor Canons of St. Paul's, as impropria tors of the living, which - in many cases has been en forced with the utmost rigour; and in one instance a bill was filed against an individual of the parish for payment of such rate on a supposed valve of his premises assessed by the impropriators themselves, al though such individual had already paid 2s. 9d. in the pound on his actual rental, with the land-tax added thereto, as settled by the Deputy Reinembrancer of the Court of Exchequer. - The Meeting then passed special thanks to the Cor poration for convening a Meeting of the Parishes af fected by the abovementioned Statute. Similar proceedings took place in the Parishes of St. Botolph, Bishopsgate ; St. Giles, Cripplegate ; and St. Olave, Hart-street. A letter from Lisbon, dated the 24th ultimo, states, that " the Charter or Constitution which is to be given by the King of PORTUGAL to his subjects has been com pleted, and that it will he made public in the course of the month of December." Of its nature nothing is known, except from reasoning and conjecture. It is reported, as we have reason to believe, on good`autho rity, that some change is about to take place in the Portuguese Ministry, one effect of which will be to place theConde deVJLLA !UAL, at present Envoy tothis country, in a leading department of the Administration. A Court of Common Council was held on Saturday, for the purpose of investing the City Solicitor with the power of acting as High Bailin - of Southwark, in the room of -- Prinsep, Esq. who has resigned. The necessary forms were gone through, and the City Soli cittir was empowered to act until a High Bailiff shall be appointed. Upwards of 500 sail of vessels are said to have been detained by-adverse winds in the Bristol and English Channels for upwards of five , weeks. Irish provisions of all sorts have risen considerably from want of supplies coming to market, and slates, which are chiefly Sup plied from Wales, are scarcely to be procured in town. A Catholic Association has been formed at Ponte fract, on similar principles to those established in Lan cashire, the aim of which is, the attainment of an un restricted participation in all the rights of British sub jects, by all who , bear the name of Englishmen, in whatsoever creed they may conscientiously believe. RECOGNIZANCES.—Intkeyeat 1801 two poor women in Hereford were bound in a recognizance of 201. each td attend and give evidence on a trial at the Assizes there. They complied with the conditions, and re turned to their homes. A few weeks since, when twenty three years had elapsed, they,v. 4 ere both arrested, on the ground that, after tl.e trial, they had not applied to tire Court for a formal discharge from their obligation. Tire one was bailed, and the other was• committed to prison; both have since been released by means of a petition to the Barons of the Exchequer, the fees of which, amounting to nearly 61. each, are to be defrayed by subscription. Since this time, four other poor per sons have been committed to Hereford prison by a similar process, and with the mere difference that their on:a:ionl,f this legal form took place seven years ago. In consequence, the visiting Magistrates of the county prison stated.their case to the Lords of the Treasury, through the Secretary of State, and their Lordships have not only sent to each of them a discharge free of all expense, under the Royal sign manuel, but have also most humanely obtained the sum,ol 301. from the Royal bounty, to b.: distributed, at the discretion of the visiting Magistrates, to the unfortunate individuals who have been exposed to so much distress, in their persons and circumstances bj. the proceedings against them.. POLICZ INTELLIGENCE. BO W-STR E ET. 111.suaculc a" AIITIIOII.—The " Morriedtmd &Valk" iquabble be tween Mr. Poole and Mr. Elliston, we regret to state, has led to a yery unpleas.mt result—to wit, a marriage between the leather on the foot of the Manager and the broad-cloth on the nether portion of the Author—or, in other words, Mr. Elliston has thought proper to inflict an actual kick on Mr. Poole's own proper person a parte pea I—at least as nearly so as he could ; and Mr. Poole,in retutn, has thought proper to " lallup" Mr. Elliston's own proper shoulders with a threepenny ash plant ! which kicking and lalluping very na turally brought them before the Magistrate. Matters of this kind are always enveloped in mystery ; but, as far as the circumstances appeared, they were thus:—About a fort night ago, Mr. Poole wrote a letter to Mr. Elliston—whether to ask how he liked the preface to" Marne I and Single," or to offer a new piece, we do not know ; but whatever that letter was about, Mr. Elliston did not vouchsafe to notice it ; and therefore, at 12 o'clock, on Saturday, Mr. P. repaired to the Theatre, accompa nied by his dedicatee, Mr.St.ilubyn,for the purpose, as it would ap pear, of demanding an answer. At the stage-door they sent in their cards ; and, after waiting a quarter of au 'sour, they were de sired to walk into Mr. Elliston's private room. They did so; and, after waiting another quarter of an hour, Mr. El l i ston enter ed the room with their cards in his hand, and without any preface at all, said to Mr. Poole, " if you don't get out of this house, I'll kick your"—(w hat we bad rather not mention). Now, MrPoole, in stead of getting out, began to remonstrate ' • and thereupon Mr. Elliston kicked him—whether precisely according to his threat or not, we know not. Then Mr. Poole began laying on Mr. Elliston with an ash plant, which he bad brought with him—Whether for the purpose or not we canngt say ; but be that as it may, it was so dry and feckless that it broke almost directly ; and then the Gen tlemen seized each other by the collar, and shook each other well, and there was a terrible scuffle between them. How long that scuffle lasted, and how they were got apart, we cannot say; but certain it is, there was no great damage done on either side; and when the scuffle was over, Mr. Poole and his friend, Mr. St. Aubyn. came direct to this Office, whilst Mr. Elliston called out to his door. keeper—" If you ever let that man into my theatre again, I will discharge you. Mr. Poole and his friend, as we have already said, came direct to this office; where they obtained a private interview with Sir It. Mim—for the Magistrate of the day (Mr. Mbuhull) was other wise engaged at the moment. Sir RICHARD heard their story, which story was afterwards communicated to Mr. MINSHOLL, who thereupon issued his warrant, and in a few minute% Mr. Elliston appeared in the custody of Ruthven—an officer who executes war rants of this description with a peculiar grace. Mr. Elliston came, attended by Messrs. Dunn and Winston, the treasurer and acting manager of his Theatre, and having taken his seat on the bench, the following colloquy ensued : " You complain, Sir, of having been assaulted by Mr. Elliston?" said Mr. AIINSHULL, addressing Mr. Poole, who was seated at the other end of the bench by the side of his friend, Mr. St. Aubyn. " Yes, Sir," replied Mr. Poole, rising — " yes, Sir — Mr. Ell is t on has kicked me, as I stated in my deposition. " " Did you strike Mr. Elliston?" asked his Worship. " I struck him, with this stick;' replied Mr. Poole—holding up the fractured ash-plant abovementioned---" I struck him with this stick, but not until be had assaulted me, as I have described." " Well, Mr. Elliston," said his Worship," what have you to say ?" " I shall...ay nothing," replied Mr. Etliaton, who still occupied one of the Magisterial chairs with much dignity—" I shall say nothing; let him expose Ms character in a public Court." " Then, I say, Mr. Elliston," rejoined his Worship," that you shall find bail." " There they are, Sir—there they are," said Mr. Elliston— pointing to Messrs. on and Winston, who instantly entered into securities for Mr. Elliston's appearance at the Sessions, and then all the parties withdrew without any further remark. LAMBETH-STREET. - hiroavairn Decision ox RZWAIDS TO FIRITIOOL--Thillidiry last, two fires took place in the neighbourhood of this office; one on the premises of Mr. Ashton, gun-maker, Whitechapel, the other at Mr. Jones's, a builder, in the Commercial-Mad. The firemen, who arrived with the first engines applied at this office the next day for an order for the payment of the reward which it has been the cus tom to grant ow the affidavit of the fireman. The Magistrate iu formed the applicants, that iu consequence of complaints that had been made, the Magistrates had come to a determination not to grant any orders for the payment of the reward, until the person whose premises had been on fire was present ; a notice was served on Mr. Ashton and Mr. Jones to attend, and on Saturday they and the firemen appeared together at the office, when they both stated that the fires on their premises had been put out before the engines arrived, but u they did not accuse the engines of delay, they paid the reward. The Ceylon Gazelle, of June •12, announces the loss of the brig Lion, Captain Stunt, between the Pambase Pass and the Island of Delft, and it was feared the master, passengers, and most of the crew, had perished, as it appeared from one of the crew who escaped, that the brig went to pieces almost immediately after she struck. A most violent gale was experienced again in the neighbourhood of East Grinstead, on Sunday se'nnight, which did considerable damage. Several windows were blown in, and some cbimnies blown down in the neighbouring villages. The thermometer_ stood at 54 degrees, at midnight, which is very unusually high.— The Sussex peasantry ascribe the boisterous weather to the new moon's happening on Saturday. Three wild geese were one day last week shot by a man at Alfriston, in the neighbourhood of that place. The number of prisoners now in Horsham jail for trial at the ensuing Winter Assizes, is twenty-four. A parsnip, straight and well grown, was, afew days ago, pulled in the garden of Mr. Woods, of Lindfield, that measured nineteen inches in circumference, and weighed six pounds and a half. Thursday, a sloop came into Dover Harbour, having on board seventy silk umbrellas, fifty-two pieces of Bandana handkerchiefs, some medicines, soap, &c. part of the cargo, no doubt, of some unfortunate vessel wrecked in the late gales. . A young Doctor, whose loyalty led him to borrow a military dress to enable him to enter the Tuileries with more facility, in order to sprinkle holy water on the coffin of the late LOUI3 XVIII. while lying in state, was discovered by some one in attendance, and arrested. He was tried for the offence of appearing in disguise, and, at the earnest pleading of his Counsel, condemned tp the mitigated penalty of twenty hours' imprisonment. An Inquisition was taken at Pakenham, on the body of Wm. Goldson. The deceased was going from Pa kenham Bell, on an ass, and was overtaken by John Frost, d r iving a horse and cart, and when they were descending a hill, the deceased was forced down, and the horse trampled on his head, by which death was caused. A witness proved that he had just before quit ted the road and protected himself from the . horse and cart by getting into a ditch, and it was proved that John Frost had been in the habit of driving very fast. The Jury returned , a verdict of " Accidental Death ;" but fixed a deodand of £8 upon the horse and cart. The Jamaica Royal Gazette contains the following . portrait of negro affection and fidelity, in an account of a Coroner's Inquest at St, George's, at Happy Hut, on the Bth Nov. on the bedy ofJames Giscome, alias James, an old negro man, and head mason to James Giscorne, Esq. who died at five o'clock on the morning of the preceding day. This old man was in the house at the time, and seemed much affected, saying that now his master was dead, he would soon die too: be was ad vised to retire to his own house and did so. In the course of the forenoon one of his sons, going to the house, was surprised to find his father dead. The body was lying undressed on the bed, with the face down. wards, and it was at first supposed by the Jurors that the pressure of the face on the pillow might have occa sioned suffocation, but no. indications of this appeared on the countenance. The verdict_ was u That he died! by the vititation of Goo."

Two valuable horses, belonging to one of the Quorir don Hunt, were destroyed at Derby nn Saturday morn ing week, by suffocation. The groom had left a candle 1114ining against a wall, while he quitted the stable fur some purpose, which, falling upon the ground, set file .to some straw, and caused their death a few minutes afterwards. One of the horses is said to have cost its owner more than 'MO guineas. Parker, the suspected perpetrator of one of the horrid murders at Boston, who, it will be remembered, was discharged, after his examination before the Coroner, passed this week through Peterborough, on his way to that place. He was lodged in the City *Yid on Tuesday night, and forwarded to Boston on Wednesday. He was apprehended at Yarmouth, when just about to em bark on board a vessel for Holland. At Penzance, the damage done to the harbour is very considerable. Porthaven Harbour, in Mount's Bay, has sustained but little damage, from the effect of the new Pier, which, though not finished• has been found a .most powerful breakwater to this important receptacle for shipping when completed. Marazion, Newlyn, and Monshole, the other ports, have suffered a good deal in shipping, but no lives lost. Some idea may be formed of the violence of the late wind, when it is stated that the Regulator, Rafter coach, was blown over twice between Bristol and Salisbury, BIRTHS.
