It is believed to have been accidental. 42 loss will chiefly fall on the sufferers, not more In me third of the property being insured. In ad toa to their loss by the fire, they sustained great age by the robberies committed during the con- Itift by bands of navigators labouring at the , t Docks, who, instead of aiding the inhabitants in effort s to subdue the flames, either carried off Isantonly destroyed, every tiring that came within 1!; - .• reach. In this way the celFars of the different were plundered, the valuable furniture of Bentimi destroyed, and great part of Mr. Beal's ti stolen. Several of the wretches have been ap ^ended, and committed for trial. It is scarcely '?'ring that such extensive depredations should taken place, when it is considered that there is e: a Marristrate at Sheerness, and only two consta % and t wo- watchmen. Captain Walker, with his l iters and men, repaired to the spot with the utmost celerity.

ORATOR HUNT AND MR. GEORGE M awr DOWLING A few minutes before twelve o'clock this forenoon, Mr. HUNT went intq Mr. CLemertTs's, Proprietor of, the Observer Newspaper, near St. Clement's Church, in the Strand, to look over the different Morning Papers, to see which gave the best and fullest account of the Meeting in Palace-yard. Whilst he was there,' Mr. DOWLING opened the shop-door, and seeing Mr, I HUNT, he asked some question, and was retiring ; when Mr. HUNT stepped up to the door, and cried— " Stop! a word with you." Mr. DOWLING stopped, standing in tlra doorway, holding the door in his hand. " Mr. Ittiirr—Tott infamous rascal, how dare you publish in all the Papers that you gave me a borne-whipping, which I had not the spirit to regent ? " Mr. Dowantc.—l glve you my honour as a gentleman I never did. " Mr. Runs—Damn your honour; a hired spy, a Govern. ment spy—talk of honour; if you did not, some of your damn'd colleagues did ; and it was copied from Paper to Paper all over the country. You infamous scoundrel, if you have the courage or spirit of a man, spew it now —come, I shall go into the street with you," (offering to go out.) Mr. DOWLING-.—" Upon my honour you wrong me ; but, Aunt, you are well known ; and I should only get disgrace by having any thing to do with you"--(Going, and pulling the door after him.) Mr. Ilutio—" I shall not touch him whilst in Mr. Clements's shop; but he shall not go unpunished, for his falsehood; his cowardice shan't save him from me--(Following Mr. Dowling into the street, collaring him, and giving him two or three blows with his clenched fist)—Take that, and as you have not spirit to resent it in a manly way, take the law." Here a great crowd began to assemble. Mr. Hunt retired into the shop. Mr. Dowling put in his head and said, " Mr. Hunt, I would be glad to know your address." Mr. Hunt—" Every person knows my address, No. 8, Norfolk-street." Mr. Dowling then went away, and thus ended this affair for the present ; but we understand Mr. Dowling proceeded to prefer a charge against Mr. Hunt at Bow -street, which is to come on for hearing to-morrow forenoon.

Extensa and HAanza. This art-to was again repeated. Much science was displayed, and the parries were made with the great est nicety. It was the only equal match of science. • Paling& and Racnstonn made some flourishes as well as hits, but they gave satisfaction. BALLS and SPRING. This bout excited much attention, as it was considered equal in science; but Spring had more than two stone in weight. Every manoeuvre was practised to excel, but Bales had decidedly the best of it, against superior length. Scaocouts, Ilerrow, and others set-to, and a ruffianing match between two multi be pugilists, excited much applause. They hit away unmercifully, and the flooring system was all their aim.

It began with the Students at Gottingen, has since seized the spinners and weavers of Manchester, and has now crossed to Ireland, where, it is to be hoped, the evil sprite may at last get safely embogged I Saturday se'nnight a duel was fought between Gra velines and Calais, by two English Gentlemen, a Mr. B— and a Mr. W—. They fired one shot each, when Mr. received the'brin of his antagonist in the pistol hand, which took off two of his fingers : the seconds then interfered, and the dispute was settled. The difference which caused the rencontre occurred in England, from whence the parties ar rived, and on 'the affair terminating as above, they quitted France for this country. A duel was fought on Hounslow Heath, yesterday morning, between two Gentlemen, named HILLSON and MnasoeN, which arose out of a dispute in one of the stands at Egham races. The latter was woun ded seriously on the left side, and was conveyed away in a gig. Some peace officers had followed the parties from Old Oak Common, where they first met, but they were tou late to pc event the mischief. Saturday se'unight, Michael Connor was executed, I pursuant to his sentence, for highway robbery, on the pet son of Captain DORMAN, on the Passage Road near Cork. He was attended by the Rev. J. ENG LAND, and met his fate with much firmness, but con fessed the justice of his sentence, and acknowledged that he had participated in many other crimes de serving the punishment of the law, besides that for which he was about to surfer. • . . • MR S. FRY. DURHAM', SEPT. 4.—Last week Mrs, ELIZABFTH FRY, the philanthropist, arrived here from London, and, accompanied by her friends, and one or two gentlemen of this neighbourhood, inspected the old and new county prisons. She examined the different cells, day-rooms, &c. and expressed much satisfac tion at the prospect of the superior comfort which the new gaol was likely to afford to the risone.N. She strongly recommended .the formation Of Com mittees of both sexes, for the purpose of frequently visiting the prison, to see that the salutary rnies and directions of the Magistrates were fully catried into effect. EDINBURGH, SEPT. s.—We understand that Mrs. FRY, distinguished for her henevoient excitions for the reformation of many of our pri,ons, arrived here lately, and has gone on, in the further prosecution of her views, to the north. The persevering and suc cessful efforts of this Lady, for improving the ma nagement of Newgate prison, arc well known. She was induced to visit that prison about four years ago, from representations which were made to her Of the wretched condition of the prisoners, and she fout.d all that she had heard as to their misery, poverty, and extreme profligacy, realized in its utmost extent. By the regulations which were introduced by this Lady into the management of the prison, a great and striking change was effected in the character of its miserable inmates. Their turbulent and profligate habits were relinquished for order, decency, and so briety ; and many of those, who were familiar with the licentious excesses which formerly prevailed is Newgate, now.bear testimony to the astonishing im provement which had been brought about. The judg ment, good sense, and persevering humanity evinced by Mrs. FRY, and her associates, in this work of be nevolence, can only be appreciated by those who consider all the difficulties they had to encounter.— Those who were the objects of their care were, to all appearance, sunk in inveterate habits of wickedness, alike indifferent to the reprobation or praise of their fellow-creatures. But by, the attention and kindness of their instructors, the principle of self esteem, which had been well nigh extinguished in their minds by a long course of profligacy, was revived. They were made to see that they were not altogether abandoned by their fellow creatures—and that they might still by industry and sobriety recover in part that estima tion which they had forfeited, and thus by degrees a new interest was awakened in their minds, which gradually produced a thorough reformation in their habits. COVENT GARDEN THEATRE. Yesterday being the day named for the re-opening of this Theatre, the doors were opened at the usual hour to receive a most numerous and brilliant audi ence. Beautiful as the house appeared when lighted up on Friday, the elegant assemblage which graced its walls last night gay .! the whule a finishing touch which surpassed our most sanguine hopes, and de lighted the eye with all that was graceful, lovely, and superb. The boxes and pit were filled in almoa every part before the curtain rose, and in the course • of the evening they became crowded to an overflow, Both the galleries were also completely filled, and the satisfaction, good-humour, and delight which the whole of the audience evinced were no more than we expected from their candour, libel a!ity, and taste.— ' At seven o'clock the curtain rose, and the performers advanced and sung " God save the King." TAYLOR, DURUSET, TINNEY, Miss MATHEWS, and Miss STIR LING, were of the number who presented themselves. The whole audience stood uncovered while listening to the loyal strain; and after it was concluded many voices called for its repetition, and interrupted the acclamations of the audience at large by expressions of dissatisfaction, in consequence of their encore not being attended to: these, however, were but of short duration, and were wholly put to rest by the draw ing up of the curtain. The Play was Macbeth, in which Mrs. YATES, from the Dublin Stage, made her first appearance in Lon don, as the representative of Lady Macbeth. It is no easy task to pronounce on the merits of an actress from a first perfwmance ; but if a fine well-propor tioned figure, interesting countenance, and powerful voice, can recommend their possessor to favour, she will prove an acquisition of great importance. While urging Macbeth to commit the murder which is to place a crown on his head, she displayed a just con ception of the part; and some of her reproaches were breathed in a spirit of bitterness that was universally felt and approved. In the banquet scene, the uneasi ness and indignation with which she views the alarm and, anguish of Macbeth were welt depicted; at the close of which she dismissed the guests with an ani • mated expression of impatience. Iler last scene in , spired universal interest, and reiterated applause re warded her exertions when she retired. Youso acted Macbeth with great ability. Plis manner of addressing the Ghost of Banyuo, and va rious other parts of his performance, were truly ex cellent; and the manner in which he receives the news of the " moving grove," and his rencontre with Made; were admirable. In short, as the represen tative of Macbeth, he is second to no man but his splendid predecessor, Mr. Koala r.. Mr. C. KEMBLE, who was reported to be ill, agree ably surprised the audience by presenting himself be fore them as Macde: He was greeted with shouts of universal applause, which were frequently renewed in the course of his fine performance. Th'e other characters offered the usual display of talent, and the Tragedy throughout went off in the best manner, honoured with mute attention and uni versal approbation. The favourite Melo-drame of the Milk, and his Men followed, and was acted with much spirit and animation.—On the whole, the season at this Theatre has commenced under the most flattering au spices, and with uncommon and highly merited eclat. MY. MUNDEN, Mr. J. JOHNSTONE, Mr. EMERY, and Mrs. DAVISON, arc playing at Manchester. Mr. SINCLAIR, and Mtss BYRNE, ate taking the lead in the Operatic department at Edinburgh. Friday evening, as a carriage was returning from Broadstairs, on its arrival between the Elephant, And Castle and Chat ing Cross, some villains cut the straps which fastened a trunk between the boot and seat ut the carriage, and after cutting the straps in az or eight places, they succeeded in getting off with die trunk, containing valuable articles of t:inale itemises apparel jen elle' y.
