We feel pleasure in recording the following instance of the protection ,afforded by she Magistrates to the labourers in the collieries: At a Special Stetting of Magistrates, held in the parish of Bed waity, Monmouthshire, the 14th inst. (complaint: having been of late fr-quently made by labourers in the collieries, of their be: Mg refused a certificate of dlschsrgtr by their masters without a month's previous notice), i: was determined that, in those cases where the workman was prevented working for want of the ne cessary'and timely supply of timber, he s:tould be entitled to his present discharge, notwithstanding any general agreement for no. dee to the contrary. And it was further unanimously agreed by the Magistrates present, that if such cert rate was denied by the master, it should be granted by the INlagi,trates; avd two labou rers,work men in the colliery of Me.srs. Sossers, Thomas, and Co. were under the circumstances discharg.:d by them accordingly. Monday se'nnight an investigation took place at Halliwell, on the body of one Mary Ridings, suppos. ed to have died from ill treatment by her husband.— The inquisition was adjourned until Thursday last for further investigation, when at length the Jury brought in a verdict of Manslaughter against Henry Ridings, who was thereupon committed to Lancaster Castle. A few days ago, EDWIN, the second son of Jonm GREENWOOD, Esq. of Keighley. went to shoot on his father's royalty, near Ripley, Vorkchire, as he was loading one barrel of a double barrelled fowling piece, the other went off, by which accident his hand was shattered so dreadfully as to render amputation necessary. Rostssrrtc SCENERY.—The operations which . have been going on for some time last at Salisbury Craggs, near Edinburgh, the effect of which is to take away all that is striking and picturesque in the aspect of this rock, and to give it the appearance of a common stone quarry, are now likely to be suspended. The Officers of State have at last resolved to take up the question as to the right of the Magistrate: of Edin burgh to demolish this rock. Instructions have been given to the Crown Solicitor to prepare a rase for the opinion of the. Crown Lawyers, (and- the Earl of HADDINGTON flaying, it is understood, disclaimed having right to more than the pasturage), there is reason to believe that the farther progress of demo lition Will be prevented by interdict, if that shall be necessary. Last Monday week, a summons was taken out by a person of the name of Job E__ o ntrlish, a farrier, of Hereford, against Mr. ROBERT WARREN, the famous Blacking-maker, of London, laying an attachment against his horse to recover `l Os. being a demand for bleeding and administering a couple of diuretic balls to his horse, at the Mitre Inn, Hereford, the payment of which demand had been very properly refused. The vintage is nearly finished in the neighbour- hood of Paris. The produce is so abundant, that in some quarters a sufficient number of vessels could not for some time be procured to hold it. Caravans of amateurs are proceeding to the Cabarets in the environs of Paris, to drink wire at eight and ten sous the litre, the abundance of the vintage having lowered the small wines to this moderate price. MAIDSTONE, SEPT. 29.—The hop-picking is now quite finished in this neighbourhood, and the produce has far exceeded the most sanguine expectations of , the planters. On:one acre at Linton, there was grown the amazing quantity of 14 bags, a circumstance un paralleled. Our market, on Thursday, was upon the whole tolerably brisk, and many sales were effected. The prices were—for pockets fiom 71, to bi. and for bags 6. to 71. 7*. TES Altiw Wednesday *sennigbt the 94th Regiment, or Scotch Brigade, was inspected at Belfast by Sir SIDNEY BECKWITH, who expressed hints& highly pleased with their appearance. The Old Scotch Brigade was originally raised by BALrovit, Laird Buntaiwt, and the present Regiment was raised at the commence ment of the late war in 1793, from the old brigade, then in the service of Holland. It was sent to Gibral tar in 1795—t0 the Cape of Good Hope in 1796 and to India in 179 S—served in the Mysore and' Mahratta campaigns, and had a company on board la Sybille frigate when she took la Forte. The regi !nem returned to England in 1805, and served dur ing the whole of the Peninsular campaigns; and, as a reward for its meritorious and gallant conduct, has on its colours an Elephant and Seringapatam, for India—Ciudad Rodrigo, Badajos, Salamanca, Vittoria, Nieclle, Braes, Theulouse, and Peninsula, for the Peninsular campaign. The finishing of the Arch of the Bridge now con structing at Springfield, over the Sark (which divides E igland and Scotland), on Friday, the 18th ultimo, gave rise to a grand Masonic Festival, in which the Brethren of Cumberland and Dumfries-shire equally participated.—Major MILLER, P. G. M. for Dum fries-shire, after an address of great eloquence and animation, hid the stone on the south-side of the Bridge ; and GEORGE BLAMIRE , Esq. P. G. M. for Cumberlaud, - performed the same ceremony on the north-side. Corn, wine, and oil, having been poured upon the stones, the P. G. M. for Dumfries-shire, re ceived the P. G. M. for Cumberland on his right hand, and so in succession, every Scotch Mason welcomed his English Brother into Scotland on his right hand. The whole then proceeded in grand procession to Gretna Church, where the P. G. Chaplain delivered an energetic discourse from ST. Luica's Gospel : " Who is my neighbour?" At the conclusion of the service, they returned to Springfield, and partook of an excellent dinner in a temporary building, which had been erected for the purpose, Major MILLER in the Chair ; who, in the course of the afternoon, deli vered several short but excellent addresses, when pro posing the different toasts. The utmost harmony pre vailed till a late hour, when the Brethren separated, highly delighted with the day's entertainment. The Lodges were numerously and respectably attended. Saturday a numerous and most respectable com pany of Gentlemen, well-wishers to the " Liverpool Theatrical Fund," lately established in that town, dined together at the Kin ' s Arms to celebrate the formation of the Society. Dona WRIGHT, Esq. was in the Chair. The collection made in aid of the In stitution amounted to upwards of 1304. Mr. T. LEWIS, Mr. M`GIBBOX, and Mr. VANDENHOFF addressed the, company in the course of the evening; in appropriate speeches. A Poetical Address, written for the occa sion by Mr. NOBLE, was recited with great feeling by ' Mr. VANDENHOFF. The evening was spent with much hilarity and good humour. Monday se'nnight the Annual Ball in aid of the funds of the General Sea Bathing Infirmary, was held at the Assembly Rooms, Royal Hotel, Margate, un der the most respectable patronage of the Nobility • ~and Gentry visitants to, and residents of the Isle of Thanet ; and, as might be expected, the receipts were very considerable, amounting to £137 9s. 6d. The assemblage was most brilliant, in number between four and five hundred, of the beauty and fashion of the island. The sprightly dance was kept up with the greatest glee until a late hour of the morning, and the happy throng departed, appearing doubly grati fied with the pleasures of the evening, and the satk faction of having contributed liberally to the neces sities of the poor and afflicted, under the fostering roof of that invaluable Charity. Sir FREDERICK Folvxs, of Lowesby-hall, Leices tershire, lately gave a fete in consequence of the christening of two infant sons of the Baronet. The hospitality of this Gentleman has been the cause of the following specimen of provincial eloquence: On entering the supper-room, a slight observer would sup pose that magic had indeed resumed her enaianting powers, and That (he had been turning her fantastic wreaths round each pro jecting pillar—so bad was the effect. that quick surprize was seen to start, and twitch grave reason's mantle; ex...labeling, with a look, ' Is this -reality r'—Selection, where nothing but beauty and dignity met the eye, may appeal not only invidious but abortive; it is impassible, however, to pats over that splen- ' did galaxy —that model of symmetry, yet monument of conde scensiou—lsmietta, the Duchess Dowager of Rutland. In viewing her Grace at Lo.vesby, while traversing the elegant apartmcntstbe mind involuntarily recurred to MILTON,' Grace,' . was indeed in all her steps,' and in every movement' dignity.' _The admiration excited in surveying her Grace is pure ; it is ad miration, which hurls competition and rivaLhip to their native shades, and leaves envy without a thread to work upon.* ' SINGULAR EFFECTS OF TILE HIGH WINDS.—At the period of th,: earthquake at Inverness, the top of the elegant spire of the Jail was wrenched round, about four or five feet below the extreme point of the stone work, but still stood firm, in consequence of the stones being riveted to each other, and the iron rod upon which the cock is fixed passing through the centre of them to a considerable depth. The spire is an octagon, and this twisted part has, for two years past, exhibited the singular appearance of resting its angular points on the sides of the massive octagon beneath. The high wind of Monday se'nnight, which blew down chimney -pots, and partially unroofed some houses, wrenched the jail spire still farther round, so that we need not be surptis.td to see it in time perform an entire revolution round its iron axis. CAUTION.—Monday, about half-past three o'clock, a boy of three and a half years of age ate six Labur num peas. At seven in the evening he was suddenly seized with violent vomiting, which continued nearly an hour, accompanied with convulsions and fainting fits. Warm milk was administered to him, which brought up the peas, and thus recovered him. Me dical men are of opinion that a few more of these peas would have occasioned instant death. The flack of sheep which we lately mentioned to have been stolen from Yalding, in Kent, has beon traced to Southall, on the road to Uxbridge. The bailiff of Mr. WILLAN, of the Bull and Mouth Inn, Bull and Mouth-street, purchased the flock for his master, of two men, and paid them for them. In consequence of hand-bills having been sent down to Uxbridge, the bailiff discovered that he had been purchasing stolen property. He immediately pursued the thieves, znd secured them, with the whole of the money he hackpaid them, except a few shillings. The priLoners were conveyed to Beaconsfield jail. SPORI'ING INTELLIGENCE.

NOTLISTIC Foire-Racr:—Monday mornings at eight o'clock; 'in Hyde Park, a muster of the amateurs assembled to witnesa the race for a rump and dozen. between Spring, Burns, Martiss; and a nice, the distance of 9t' yards; but the latter person declined previous to the time of starting. The race was spl. ritedlt contended, but %lartin took the lead, kept It, and came in first. Spring Wai second at the winning-pair, and Burns; though last, yet neverthekss he ran In in gotid style, and was but little behind. The don yards were run in 25 seconds. A battle, which excited much interest in town and country, was fought on Tuesday, on the Downs, near Marshfield, between Cabbage, of Brisfol, and Abrahani Newton, the Scroggins and Randal of the provincial boxers, for 100 guineas a side ; the former being hacked by an Amateur Clergyrnttn, and the latter by subscription. The combat took place in a 2.. feet ring, and the spectators may be fairly computed at thirty thousand, so much was the anxiety on the occasion; Cabbage had conquered all before him, and he is considered a better man of his - weight than any the London ring can produce. Newton had beat Ford, Bristol Hall, and others of note, and he too was con sidered a nonpareil, but he had trained off the last two or three years by serving, too mach at his bar. Cribb, and Young Pearse, brother of the Game C,hicken, seconded Cabbage; and Bob Watson and another se• corded Newton. Betting even. found I. A smart rally, decidedly in favour of Cabbage, wild went up to his adversary s larnip, and never left it tingle floored him. 2. Newton placed a hit•upon the Side of Cabbage's head, but it was returned with both hands, and some manly fighting tack place; Cabbage, however, would not be denied, and he so cr cheriercd Newton's head, that his features were levelled: . . b. Newton chewed weakrels, and 'Went down with a light hit ; he had also the worst of the 4th, sth; and 6th rounds. 7. A smart rally was commenced bf Newton, and some sharp hitting took place, but the strength and determined manner c f Cabbar,e's hales was apparent in every round, and he received a heavy fall. a. This round reduced winning to a certainty on the part of Cabbage, who hit bis man seoseleir, and be let him go down, seetnitOy afraid to repeat his stunning blows. In the 9th rouA Newton fill from wt.Anesa, and ha WU beat, but he stood up four other rounds withnot a chance, as the claret ham his head had deluged the ring and he was taken off the . ) ground. Cabbage won Without a hurt, and our corresponded describes him as better than any of the London ring, of weight and inches. Litt.. a C.,icken Lc keeps his hands will before and 2 JOTS a'.ik.! c.ith Ile is a steady fighter, and a temperate man.. _ _ Cyrus Da-,i.; and Martin, the baker, are matched tight for 100 guineas, in the same ring at Bales id Isle of !JaL, on the 29th of October. Extract of a private letter from _llettnos Ayteci dated June the `2 0t h : " You must know that there is a mi-Aty difference in the estimation Ilf an old Spaniard between hilt) and a Creole; and, though the revolution has in some, or rather in a great, deg ree done away with this dis 4 tjnction, from either o bliging the old Spaniards to leave the country or mount the cockade, there is no love between them. On the other hand the English may be respected, but not loved by either ; and you 'can hardly wonder at it. If you see a better house, horse, carriage, &c. and enquire who it belongs to ? the answer is almost invariably," to an English 111er .chant ;" and people of the greatest standing here, giv• ing fast way to our upstart countrymen, cannot easily reconcile themselves to their fortune. I have see.' all the public amusements of this place, which consist only of two—the monstrous one of bull fighting, and the theatre. If you except the grand and spacioas appearance of the first look of the hull-ring, you can , not conceive a more shocking or poorer amusement. I stayed till eight bulls were killed, in doing of whisk I saw no feat of agility that the commonest Circus fellow in our country would not think a disgrace to his profession to practise. Ail round the ring are slips or recesses where the Pickadores take shelter when chased by the bull. There were nine of these and one Matadore on horseback, all of whom held in their hands a coloured flag, at the same time darts with fire-works attached, which were stuck into the animal when making for the flags that were always kept before his eyes. When the spectators seemed tired of this amusement, a drum was beat, and one of the Pickadores alone attacked with flag and sword in hand, and almost with unerring precision, brought him to the ground with one stab. When dead six men on horseback came in with long lines made of hides, and called lasays. These lasays have a noose at the end, which the men coil round their heads ; one will throw at the horns, another at the neck, and so on, which they invariably succeed in catching,— When two or three have got hold, off they set at full gallop, and are out of sight in a moment. Since the Revolution here, much to their credit,. the bull ring is but thinly attended ; iew ladies now go. Since I arrived no less than three murdered men have been exposed on the public .square, with a plate on their breast, for the purpose of getting money from pas sengers to bury them; and great pains are always taken on these occasions to expose, as much as pos . sible, the deadly wound or wounds. This country is good for tradesmen of a particular class. We brought out a house and a ship carpenter with us as passen gers, who are both engard, I believe, at two dol lars and a half a day, and found in every thing." . ~-..
