George William Hope, Christ Church. Wiliam Reginahl Courtenay, Christ Church. Joseph Gibbs. Worcester College. Sunday morning, St. Mary's Church was re-opened for Divine Service. The appearance of the interior has been totally changed, and is now chaste and appropriate. The monuments which anions disfigured the beautiful columns are at length removed, never to be replaced. The organ has been entirely revamped, ha a style cor• responding to the rest of the building, in place of the very anoma lous one which hitherto covered it. The opportunity has been taken to put the instrument itself into thorough repair, and to snake such additions to it as more modern improvements had ren dered necessary. It will now be found to yield to few either in richness and sweetness of tone or in power ; but its effect must be beard and felt to be understood, and cannot he described. The galleries have been entirely rebuilt ; the pyramids of seats which encumbered and concealed the west end of the church removed, and in their place a plain neat gallery is continued, not only across the west end, as before, but also along the whole of the north side, up to the organ gallery; so that there are now galleries on three sides, whilst the south. which contains the range of windows, is left open. The Vice-Chancellor's Throne and the Doctors' seats hole been demolished—not before it was time—and the new ones, which are chaste and elegant, resembling the stalls of our old Cath edrals, are placed on the north side; and the pulpit, a new and elegant structure, opposite to them, on the south side. The seats for the Masters are between these two, as before, but necessarily, from this arrangement, lengthwise, instead of across. The seats for the Ladies are behind the Doctors, under the gallery on the north side. The windows have been thoroughly repaired, and filled with ground glass, the effect of which is novel and extremely good, and which has the additional advantage of preventing the necessity of those ugly things called blinds, which disfigure so many of our churches.

Thursday week, die nth of February, Mr. Maynard, of Harsley Hall, afforded a party of sporting friends a most brilliant day's diversion with his barriers.—After half an hour's pretty hunting with a hare which was lent ; a second was found upon the Hawk's Nest Farm, about two miles from Harkey ; the scent was good, and the hounds (which are chiefly through-bred fox hounds) com menced business se vigorously, as to drive poor puss front her ac customed haunts ; after a circuit over a fine country, she passed close to the village of Harsley, and directed her course to the Arncliffe Woods; these she gallantly penetrated, and made towards Osmo therly ; a short check then occurred, near a fir plantation, close to the village which she entered ;—she was at length discovered leaving her retreat on the other side of it, snaking back for her deserted Mme. The bounds ardently resumed their work of toil, and pressed so closely on her towards Harney, as to compel her to change bet route ; and she returned again, precisely over the same ground, to the Arnchff Woods, where she gained a secure shelter in a thick whin covert, and there the hounds were taken off. This remark. able chase was calculated to be from 15 to IS miles at the least, and occupied about two hours, a great part of it being at a clipping pace. The celebrated race-horse Antonio, died last week of infiamma. don at Preston. This bone was twelve years old, and once fetched 1,000 guineas. GREAT MATCH AT GOLF. Saturday, the Gentlemen of the Blackheath Golf Club assembled at the Green Man Hotel, at Blackheath, for the purpose of play the Half yearly Match, which decides the winne r of the Medal. The game commenced about one o'clock, and finished at four, during which time the weather was favourable, bat the ground was not so; inconsequence of which the playing was not altogether so good as usual. On casting up the marks, it was found that W. Black, Esq. of Wandsworth, had completed the three rounds in 100 and 12 strokes, being three less than any of his compeers; he was In consequence declared the winner of the Medal. THE FANCY. Faane REDMOND MID Geo. Moon (of Bath).—The Bath Moen having challenged any ten stone man in England, some of Frank Redmond's friends have come up to the paying place with the needful, and Frank is ready to post the pony with him fur a cool ElOO a-side, to fight half way between London , and Bath, at the Moon's own time, within three months. Young Dutch Sam, with a view of making up for the long com pulsory cessation of the display of his pugilistic capabilities, begins to look out in time kir a customer. He challenges Jack Martin for £lOO a-aide, if Jack will peel no more than 11 stone, and name a day when be knows that the stopper is taken off Sam's appearance. Sam's weight is much below that of Martin, but he is anxious to finally close that account. If Jack does net like his offer, Sant ex presses himself ready to meet Bishop Sharpe, without stipulation of weight, as soon as ever he can enter the Ring without prejudice to his bailing friends. WRESTLING AT HAIGH PARK. The following are the arrangements which have been agreed upon during Ike lost week (by a deputation of Noblemen and Gentlemen et Yorkshire to those of London), for the great wrestling match at Haigh Park, near Leeds. on Easter Tuesday, and the two following days.--The wrestling games to commence the day after the Races, and-to be continued for three days; the play to be hand to collars, fair back falls, light shoes, and padding to be worn. if approved by the parties.

Aci n siderable congregaiddri; evidently of tb, most respect able order in society; Were asserobled in the body of the Chapel soon after eleven Alock, when a voluntary was very ably elecutvd 'neon the organ. Durihg this. performance, the soldieri entered, and, with their re spective officers, occupied the galleries of the Chapel; the military band sat in the orgah loft. At a quarter past eleven the band struck up, when the Archbishop of York, and the Bishops of London and Rochester, in their full robes, entered the Chapel, preceded and fol lowed by the usual attendants, and took their places on the right hand side of the Chapel, near the altar.' The Rev. Dr. Ward followed soon after, attehded by his legal adviser and another Gentleman, and took his seat in a pew below that of his brother Prelates.— When the music had ceased, the Morning Prayers were read by the Officiating Minister. The Communion Ser vice was performed by the Archbishop of York assisted by the Bistn , ps of London and Rochester, the one read ing the Epistle, the other the Gospel. A Sermon was preached expressly on the occasion by the Rev. Dr. Kenney, from Acts v. ver. 42. " And daily, in the Temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and to preach Joins CHRIST." After the Sermon, the Ceremony of Consecration wok place. The elected Bishop, vested with his rochet, was presented to the Archbishop of York, at the Altar, by the Bishops of London and Rochester, when the Archbishop desired the King's Mandate for the c nsecration to be read. .The oaths of Allegiance and Supremacy were then ad ministered, after which, hav-if..g put on the test of the Episcopal habit, Dr. Ward received upon his head the hand of the Archbishop of Y k, and those of the Bishops 01 London and Rochester. The Consecration Prayers were then read by the Archbishop, when, the blessing having been pronounced, the ceremony ended. THE LATE BRUNSWICK THEATRE. TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR. MARCH B—l have ken ta-day the ruins of the unfortanate Brunswick Theatre, and find that the walls remaining are suh,t tribally protected by scaffolding, and it is uncertain whether they will be taken down, at least before the termination of the Inquest. Some of the upper boxes are to be seen, and part of the gallery is hanging over them. The two drays its the middle of the street are ch aked up with rubbish, and part of the wheels only are seen. Eight opposite houses, damaged by the fall, are shut up. On conversing with the fine boy saved, as formerly mentioned, when the whole front of his father's house (a baker's) was laid open, he states, that he first heard several loud cracks, and looking out saw it bulge. when he threw himself between some sacks of flour, and thus escaped. Eath end of the street in which the Theatre is situated is blocked up with boards, and doors introduced, to allow those connected with the street to pass and repass—officers are stationed at each. Great part of the scenery is removing, and some persons seen taking sketches of the awful ruins. THE LATE DREADFUL CATASTROPHE AT WINCHES ESTER. In our last week's paper we stated that the number of bodies that had then been found amounted to thirty. four. Three boys were drawn out of the water on the following day; And on Sunday the river was let off, to the 'item of about four feet of water, when another boy,'tbe son -of William Kirkham, a smith, at the Old Quay, was discovered a few yards below the spot where the flat mined over ; making the total number found to be thirty.eight. Men were employed the whole of the day in dragging ; and in the course of the afternoons many thousand persons we. e present to witness their operations. At one time twenty thousand individuals, at least, were standing on the banks of the river, and lon Regent Road, near the bridge. Several of the bodies were interred on Sunday and Monday, but the greater number were buried on Tues day afternoon. The streets of the town certainly did present scenes of real woe. Lnag trains of mourners„ many of them absorbed in the deepest grief, were to be seen passing along in almost every direction. Siz per sons were interred at St. John's Church ; six in Hulme; and seven or eight in the New Burial Ground in Rusholme Lane. The exertions of the medical Gentlemen on this me lancholy occasion entitle them to the warmest praise. They promptly attended the fatal scene, and employed the utmost of their skill on behalf of the unhappy suf ferer s.—Wheeler's Manchester Chronicle. FURTHER PARTICULARS. The state of fearful anxiety whirls prevailed through out the town, especially amongst those whose relatives were supposed or understood to have been upon the flat at the time of the accident, it is quite impossible to describe. In the course of the aftei noon many affecting scenes took place amongst these who resorted to the spct to look after their lost relatives. A case of this nature occurred at the New Quay, and excited uni versal commiseration. A poor old man came inquiring for his son. As there were several bodies Which had not then been claimed, he was conducted to the ro m where the whole of the bodies weir lying. The poor Mali . ) feelings at this moment were strung to such a state of excitation and suspense, that the moment he entered_ the apat tment the shock occasioned by the sudden view of the bodies was greater than his nerves could enclose, and he fell to the ground in a state of total insensibility. On being brought to his senses, he was still so much affected by the state of agi tation into which he had been thrown, that he could not even then determine whether the body of his child was amongst the number. In many of those cases, too, where the procesS of resuscitation was unsuccess• ful, the most moving scenes were exhibited; and some of them were so powerfully affecting as even to draw tears from some of the police officers—" albeit unused to the melting mood." We were eye-witnesses (says aco temporary. journalist) to a heart-rending case of this native. The body of a young woman, named Eliza beth Raw linson, the daughter of a working man residing in Salford, was carried to the Britannia, and the utmost attention of the medical Gentlemen was promptly paid to the case. The hall-distracted father willingly lent his aid, by chafing the body of his daughter, and whilst' he was so engaged, and momentarily expecting her re covery, the perspiration rolled in big drops from off his face. At length, no signs of returning life being visible, he was reluctantly told by the surgeon that no hope was left—that the spirit of his child had fled from its earthly tenement. On bearing this appalling announcement, his hands dropped motionless by his side—in his court• tenance could be seen unmixed despair, and for several tniatites he sat by the side of the corpse, absorbed in the mit poignant grief. The sad condition of this poor fellow greatly affected ill who were in the room.— Manchester Herald. THE.A . P.A*'O3 . CII . I EiECi3 itilti• • • .• .• :r Of the fiv* men dnomed tosialriefor dic er Crlisiks bf anigiomminini ith, on Wedneidli . nest; two; (%arler ire brothers. They were conircted at the ()la Dailey tesiitins, in 'January; upon two indictments—thee first, for a robb ery jo the house of Mr. Prim, a cheesemunger, in the City, Road', and the other for plunderin g the , premises of : Mrs. Norbury, dealer in then fish, sh, n the , Corn hill., EaCh of the rOl;'leties was committed on the Sabbath, and under such daring circumstances, that from the time of their comihitment for trial their fate was 'considered as almost certain. Immediately upon their conviction On the second indictMent, the Recoil- DM, as if to mark his feeling of the enormity of their crimes, and to prevent any delusive hope of escaping from the dreadful penalty, departed from the Usual custom of sentencing the convicts at the close of the Session, and passed sentence of death upon them on the instant'. Their demeanour while in confinement 41 been ill suited to persons in their *awful 'situation even subsequently to their conviction, their conduct having been so violent, even towards each other, that for some time it was found necessary to place them in a more than ordinary degree of restraint. Charles Melford, the younger brother, was the contriver of a desperate plan for breaking out of Newgate a short time since ; but fortunately the attempt was discoveied before an attempt was made to carry it into effect. Jeremiah Sullivan was their partner in crime, and identified with them in the robbery at Mts. Norbury's. Fee about it month after the two brothers were appre hended, Sullivan remained in concealment in a lodging he bad previously occupied at a public house near the Hos e itAl. On Christmas Eve, the day before he was taker, his landlady seeing a Police report of the exami nations at Worship-street, immediately recognized in the de cription of the. Melfords the two brothers whom she had known as Sullivan's companions. She accord ingly intimated her suspicion that he was the persrn mend sired as the third robber. He endeavoured to quiet her suspicion by an assurance that he did net am his bread in that way. He was apprehended on Chfatm.rs Day. Chapman and Johnson, the other unhappy convicts, were committed from Worship-street also, on charges of horse-stealing. '! T ig re were several charges against them, and they are known to have been long and deeply engaged in the coot sewhich has led to their untimely end. Ye ter day morning, at the usual hour, the customary Sermon was preached by the Rev. Mr. Cotton, the Of• dinary of Newgate, in consequence of the order for execusion on Wednesday next, of five ill-fated indi viduals, viz.—Charles Melford, aged 17 ; William Melford, 21 (brothers), Jeremiah Sullivan, 28, and Thos. Chapman, alias Derrick, and his partner in clime. Wm. Johnson, alias Carter. The Sheriffs, &c. artived at the gaol a little after ten o'clock, soon after which the prison bell summoned the inmates to the sanctuary. Alter the vast groups had been seated in the diff, rent parts of the chapel, to the number of some hundreds, three of the unfortunwe cul prits were conducted to the condemned pew, •iz.—;he two Melfords and Chapman ; Johnson, being in a state of decrepitude, did not attend. It may be recollected, that at the January Sessions this unhappy man, owing to a fractured leg, was brought into Court upon a turnkey's back, to receive that awful sentence which, in a few hours, will, in all pro' ability, be carried into mew ion. The prisoner Sullivan was also absent, he being of the Catholic persuasion, and preferring a Divine of his own Church to attend him. The service commenced in the usual manner, by sing ing the Morning Hymn, after which the Liturgy of the Church of England was read, the Lessons appointed for the day, &c. &c. in an impres-ive manner by the Rev. Ordinary. After a penitential Psalm had been chaunted, the Rev. Gentleman directed his particular attention to the unhappy . culprits, and delivered an ap propriate discorirse from Psalm li. ver.l7 For a broken and a contrite spirit, 0 Got), thou wilt not despise."
