The 98th Regiment marched yesterday in .two divisions, from alichester for Chatham, where it will arrive on the 11 th inst. pre. o ratory to embarking on board the Vansittart and Windsor East namen, for the Cape of Good Hope.. -- The 6th (Ist Warwickshire) Foot is ordered, on being replaced by the 98tk Regiment at the Cape, to proceed to Bombay. MELANCHOLY CASE. bfonday night, an Inquest was held at the Welling ton Tavern, Brook-street, Ratclift, before J. W. Unwin, Esq. on the body of Mrs. Margaret Eldred, wife of Mr. J os eph Eldred, a veterinary surgeon. Mrs. Sarah Hollitt deposed, that she lived next door ;0 the deceased ; on Monday night, the 29th Olt, the husband of deceased came to witness, and desired her to go to his wife immediately ; she went, and found her lying c , n'the bed, with her clothes on; she said she was veil ill, i .was all the effect of passion ; she had a few mo d. with her husband, and she was most to blame : witness undressed her, and pet her to bed, and sent for Dr Harkness, who immediately attended; after Dr. Harkness w ent away, the deceased said she was getting very ill, and desired her husband to be called ;" on his coining to her bed-side, she said to him, " Joseph, I hope the LORD will forgive you and me, for one is as bad as the other ; be kind to my babes, for I am going to that place from whence I shall never return." Her biO)and went again for Dr. Harkness, who came, after which the deceased became more composed, and asked witne , sif it would not be better that she should tell the Llorto! she had been kicked by her husb tnd ? saying, she believed she had broken a blood-vessel ; witness ad vised her to tell the Doctor eves ything, and she promised to do so on Wednesday ; pn that day she appeared some thing better ; but soon became worse, and expired about n•n o'clock that night. In answer to a gnestion from a Juror, the witness said the deceased told her that her husb•ind had Oven her a dreadlut kick. •_ Mr. John Samuel Harkness, surgeon, stated, that when he wai called to tie deceased, he found a quantity 0 ! coagulated blood on the lower part of her person, which was alio lacerated. He examined the body since death, which he thinks was caused by loss of b10,,d, and tht . injury done to her person. The.deceased was in the last stage of pregnancy. She did not in any way men non' to him that her husband had kicked her. Conquest, of Finsbury-square, stated, he was present with the last witness when the body of the de- ceased was opened. There were considerable marks of violeace, and an extensive extravasation of blot - id pro duced by the injury, which was the immediate cause of her death. Tile Jury, after a long deliberation, returned a ver dict of Manslaughter against Mr. Eldred, the husband, who was immediately taken into custody on the Coro ner's warrant, and committed to prison. BLACKFRIAR's Iln tuce.—Saturday afternoon, a; a respectable female was passing alotrg Blackfriar's-bi idge, the was unintentionally run against by a person with a !.eary Joad on his shoulders, and being incapable of re sisting the sudden shock, having only a short time pre vious the misfortune to break one of her legs, was con uquentl y precipitated from the pavement into the road, 2 derth of nearly three feet ; fortunately, however, al- though much bruised, she escaped without sustaining any ..erious inj►►ry. A few days before, a woman with as infant in her arms was thrown off the pairement, in consequence of the crowded state of the bridge; the call.! was severely hurt, and conveyed home in a very precarious condition. Whilst the footway is allowed to remain in its present dangerous and unprotected state, the lives of passehgeri must be daily and hourly in jeopardy. It is a fact not generally known as it ought to be, or if known not sufficiently attended to, that it is illegal to remove wine from one place to another, in quantities greater than three dozen at a time, without a regular permit; and any wine in greater quantities so removed is liable to be forfeited. It is proposed to have Divine Service performed in the ancient British language, in some one of our Churches in Chester, every Loan's Day, for the ac commndation of the numerous natives of the Pi incipa- • lity resident in that city. The plan has been submitted to the'Bishop, and obtained his concurrence. Potasssourn, DEo.6.—Last evening came into this harbour, the Dart, of.Sunderland, laden with coals. It apreats that this vessel, during the late gales, was seen in 'the offing, from Selsea, with a flag of distress flying, and was, alter much.personal labour and risk, boarded by a pilot, and several resolute boatmen, who, to their astonishment found the vessel entirely deserted by her crew. There was a watch lying in the cabin, with clothes, apparently of passengers, and every prepara tion for dinner ; but the brig appeared to have shipped a heavy sea. As the cabin was full of water, and the long-boat was stove, there is too much reason to fear that all the p ersons on b o a r d pe r ished ; but whe ther they were washed overboard, or left the ship in the small boat and were overwhelmed in her, cannot be cr:njectured. Attempts were made to secure the vessel by her anchors on the Sussex coast, but they did not succeed, and she went on shore; since which she has been got off, and as the Salvers could not get her into Chichester Harbour, they made for this port, where they arrived in safety. By the Act of 3d Edward 1. cap. 4, and 4th of the same King, cap. 2, it is enacted, that if a man, a dog, or a cat, escape alive out of any ship, such ship shall not be deemed a wreck ; and as a live cat was found on board this vessel, she cannot be a droit of Admiralty, but must remain in charge of the Sheriff, &c. to be restored to the owner. The Admiral Berkeley, that was dismasted, and went on shore near liaslar, On the 23d ult. is got off, come into this har bour, and run on shore on Gosport beach, where she re- Mains in a bad state. The Madras, also outward-bound Indianian, which went on shore in Stoke's Bay, on the same day, is got off, and come into this harbour, where great exertions are making with the pumps to prevent sinking. An attempt has been made to get off the Shipley transport,on shore at the Sally-port, but hitherto "athout success. The poachers have been very active in the im me ( ate neighbourhood of Norwich for the last fortnight, end it seems they are not less bold. On Tuesday morning, about two o'clock, after a not very successful excursion to the woods at Honingham, a gang drew up btfore the house of Mr. HENRY MUSKETT, at that (Lice, and fired one or more vollies. It will be recol '''ted that this Gentleman resisted a party tast year Lust courageouly, and, being deserted by all but one ref his own men, who at last was felled to the ground, Sept off his antagonists by his own brave exertions, trought them to a ',alley, and made honourable terms of retreat for hinist-it and his fallen man. This salute, Lereters, wit* in the nature of a triumph. YEW COURT, OLPBAILEY-TIUS DIY. .• • . SENTENCES. ' • • • f This morning, on the RECORDER taking his" seat im the bench, he proceeded to pass the awful sentence of death upon the following convicts, viz. • Lot Cartlidge, Mary Ann Rycroft, Charles Metzer, William Lilly, William Harrison, Hannah Haribtr , Burton, Elizabeth Bosley, and Caroline Mullins (the two latter very young), for stealing goods in the dwelling-house; Levi Abrahams, for a bur glary ; and Robert Ball, for wilfully setting fire to a dwelling-house. The prisoner Cartlidge most positively declared his innocence. Six were ordered to be transported for life, viz. G. Barton, N. Clark, Henri Smith, William Carroll, Mary Nlinshall, and J. Old enfield. Tbtee for fourteen years, and 24 fur seven years. A great number were also sentenced to various pe riods of imprisonment in the House of Correction, and there kept to hard labour. The judgment of the Court was respited on Bridger Lidbitter, and five others. Thirty prisoners again,t whom no bills had been found, were discharged by proclamation.—The Sessions then adjourned to the 14th January next. LAW REPORT. COURT OF CHANCERY, DECEMBER 7. IN THE MATTER OF MILLSOM, A LUNATIC. Mr. COE stated to his Lordship that in a case in which a commission of lunacy had been found against a person on the 3d of December, the lunatic's property, which was in the possession of; and under the care of a person named Clements, was in the course of being ap propriated by him to his own uses; and would contr. nue to he so mismanaged until the Court should think proper to restrain him by a strong hand. A Petition, intended to accomplish this object, had been prepared. The LORD CHANCELLOR declared his intention to pre vent any further abuse of the lunatic's property. . COURT OF KING'S BENCH, DECEMBER 7. PRENTICE, ASSIGNEE, &C. U. HAIRY AND WIPE. This was an action by the plaintiff, as assignee of a bankrupt, to recover the balance of a butcher's bill, owing by the female defendant, previous to her marriage with the male defendant, to the bankrupt before his bankruptcy. The female defendant kept a school at hackney, where the bankrupt also resided: At the corn inencemcnt of the year 1818, there was upwards of 1004 due from the Lady to the bankrupt, and about March in that year she absconded, and was not heard of until the summer of 1823, when it was ascertained that she had got married to the mak defendant. The question, now was, whether the debt had been got rid of by the' statute of limitations ? The only witness called was the bankrupt, and he proved a promise of payment made to him by the female defendant, in the month of March, 1818 ; which promise just brought the case within the statute; the husband had already paid a bill of 301. forming part of the demand, which reduced it to 701. odd, and for this latter sun) the Jury were compelled to find a verdict for the plaintiff. FARMER V. LONG. This action was brought lay Mr. Thomas Farmer, an ironmonger, against IVIr. John Long, proprietor of the fashionable Hotel, to recover eleven guineas for repair ing and japanning some Register stoves, which had been damaged by a fire in the defendant's house. The defendant pleaded a tender of all that was due, and paid 51. into Court. The plaintiff called workmen to prove the work done, and two ironmongers to speak to the charge, which they described to be reasonable. The defence was, that the plaintiff had bargained to do the work for much less than his present demand ; and if more work had been done than the defendant had ordered, it was without his authority. The Jury found a verdict for the defendant. Letters from Vienna, by the French Mail, state that there has been a general movement of concentration in the Austrian army in the provinces adjoining the Turkish frontiers, and that several - regiments of Austrian cavalry have taken up their position upon the extreme frontier. This movement has caused some sensation ; but it was stated at Vienna, that it had been rendered necessary to form a sanitary cordon, in consequence of the extent of the plague in the provinces of Turkey which border upon the Austrian territory, particularly upon Transylvania and the Buckowina. New Brunswick Papers, to the 2d November have ar rived. They contain an account of some civil actions tried at St. John's, which were of very considerable importance to the inhabitants. Among these was the trial of the master of the ship Marcus Hill, for intro ducing the small-pox into the colony last season, which terminated in a verdict against him, and he was con ' demned to pay a fine 0f.1.:220. It was hoped this would operate as an example to the masters of vessels to be careful that no infectious disorders existed among their crews, before they entereilthe port. Another action was one against some of the inhabitants for assaulting the tide waiters, appointed by the Officers of the Customs to make their seizures. Although the assault was proved, yet, as it was a matter of great doubt with the Judge, whether the Custom-house Officers had the power to depute their authority to the tide-waiters, who with out it would have no right to make a seizure, the Jury returned a verdict of acquittal. The present state of the Old Bailey, Bridge-street, and Blackfriars-bridge, though vary lately Macadam ized, is such as to give it a fair chance of very soon rival ling in mud old Fleet-ditch. We should conceive that the winter season is not the best that could be chosen for tearing up the streets of the metropolis. The bridge is in a most disgraceful state. Wednesday List, as William Dray, the gamekeeper of Sir George Wombwell, of Stowlangtoft, in Suffolk, was going his round, a hawk passed over him, which he shot at and killed ; and, going to pick it up, he came in contact with the wire of a spring-gun, when part of its contents was lodged in his leg and ancle. A surgeon was sent for, who extracted some of the _shot, and hopes are entertained that he will be able, in a few weeks, to resume his situation, and his gun again. Another unfinished house on the East Cliff, Brighton, between the Crescent and Kemptown, became a heap of ruins on Thursday. It again blew a hurricane, but it moderated as the night wore away. The flow in the, Channel, though at the dead of the neap, was more than equal to what has sometimes been observed during the spring tides. The Catholics of the Midland District, comprising. the counties of Warwick, Stafford, Worcester, and Salop, finding that the de,ign.ttion which they had as varied, as forming a branch of the General lit itibh Ca tholic Association, was illegal, have formed themselves into a distinct society, to be called the Midland Catho lic Association.

It may not be generally known that for some time : ast commitments have been.made nut for the llnue of Correction, excepting for vagrancy, fou r :ass:las, air.] for bastardy. Although this circumstance may account, in some measure, for a considerable influx in numbers, the increase of crime is too appalei,t to escape notice. NEGOTIATION WIIH THIEVES. Some months ago, a respectable stationer, who re• sides near one of the Inns of Coon, was robbed of stamps to a very large amount, and of the halves of Bank-notes for the sum of 1,1001. He has a shop de tached from his dwelling, and, indeed, not at all com municating with it. In an iron safe in his shop he kept stamps, amounting in value to between 2,0001. and 3,0001. and in other places of sectrity in the shop he kept the halves of eleven 1001. notes of the Bank of England. The other halves he kept at his. house lot the greater security. The locks of the shop-door, and the safe and drawers, were all of the best description, but they proved of no avail against the ingenuity of the thieves. The stamps and the halves of the notes dis appeared one night—at least they were missed one morning. The safe and drawers were found lucked, but the door of the shop was open. Skeleton keys had been used, for there was no mark of violence whatever upon'the locks ; and the smith who examined t e pre mises declared that the thieves must have made several visits to the shop before they could have succeeded in ransacking it so effectually. The usual measures were resorted . to to accomFlish the recovery of the property, by information to the Police, and offer of reward. No one, however, seemed tc be tempted by the reward. At length the stationer received information, that it was possible for him to get back his stamps, if he would ex ercise a certain degree of liberality towards those into whose hands they had chanced to fall. He expressed his readiness to give 1001. for the restoration of his pro perty ;. but this offer was laughed at. The fellows who were in possession of the property, were not to be satis fied without the other halves of the notes for 1,1001. as a remuneration for their trouble in taking care of the stamps. This monstrous proposition startled the sta• tioner, who, however, gave no positive refusal, but ap pointed a negociator. The negotiation occupied a con- siderable length of time, and of course, without one of the solicitors regularly employed on occasions of this kind, nothing could be done. The thieves we'e be sought to be merciful. They would not abate a tittle of their demand ; and determined, if the halves of the notes were not forthcoming within a certain time, the stamps should be disposed of for 1,8001. This threat had the desired effect. It was ascertained that the stamps were, along with an immense quantity of other stamps, in a sort of 4. hell," or receiver's den, neat Houndselitch ; but this fact was not known until the halves were given up by the stationer, who was desired to take no notice of anything that might occur the next evening, but to attend to his business as usual. The stationer accordingly waited patiently in his shop the whole of the day, but nobody appeared. On going over to his desk, however, he stumbled over a large bundle of something on the ground ; and on examining it, he found that he had in his possession every stamp he had lost. The thieves expressed themselves satisfied at the result of the negotiation, as, although they were not paid the usual per centage for their trouble, they got the 1,1001. without being obliged to degrade them selves by employing Police Officers on the occasion. ANCIENT RELIC.-At a late festive meeting in Ar gyleshire, a circumstance of a novel and very interest ing character occurred. General CAMPBELL, of Loch nell, rose, aud addressing himself to Captain M'Dou GALL, of M'Dongall, said that he held in his hand a brooch, known by the name of " Brooch of Lorne," which had at one time belonged to King ROBERT BRUCE. It was taken born the person of that Monarch by his ancestors, M.DoutiaLL, of Lorne, in battle, on a held near Tyndrum. The fortunes of war— if the actions of rival clans can be so called—had placed that brooch in the possession of a relation of the Lochnell family, CAMPBELL, of Bragleen, whose descendants had pre served it for two centuries. It was his (Gen.CmaPßELL's) good fortune lately to obtain possession of it, and he now had the satisfaction of restoring it toic .. the descen dant of him who had so gloriously won so proud a trophy. Captain M‘Doucau. made a suitable reply al thanks and acknowledgments. The brooch was of silver, and, of a circular form, the diameter about three inches. In the centre is a rock crystal, of an oval shape ; the setting being raised about an inch, round which rise eight tubes, to the same height, in each of which is a pearl ; between these is some embosses work.—lnverness Courier. Saturday last, an inquest was held, at Birmingham, on view of the body of the wife of a respectable victualler of that town, whose death was occasioneJ by eating the root of the arcnsiluni commonly known by the name of wolf's-bane, or monk's-hood. The Jury ' returned a verdict—Died by poison. The various villages surrounding Windsor are com pletely inundated, owing to the heavy rains that lately fell, and the inhabitants of the various houses are com• pelled to live in the upper stories and have their provi siQns conveyed to them by boats. The town of Eton is suffering much in this respect, and we are sorry to state that the water still continues to rise. At the siege of Valenciennes it was impossible to make the Duke of YORK cautious. He had once come round to look at the works carrying on, so far as to be within reach of a gun of the enemy. Count .TARMAC perceiving this, went up to him, and said, " Your • Royal Highness s coat has attracted attention. Let me advise you not to continue -your walk this way." He then pointed out a path by which be might retreat in safety. The Duke took the warning very good humouredly, but said, " I came with an intention to go this way round. and I cannot go back from fear of a cannon-ball." He had passed the point of danger but a moment, when the ball reached the sentinel within a few yards of him. • , ! ! f • 1•31:1T . 3 T' V!!!!

It is very bad hunting weather, the country being Hooded; 'from Maidenhead to Chertsey, the country is more partici. larly in this state, the water running through the streets of Eton even into the houses, and in some of the shops reaching as high as the counters; the Whole of %I/intim'. Little Park is &toiled, and the adjacent meadows are impassable in some parts round there. - SPARRING. George Cooper's benefit took place at the Fives' Court yesterday. The promise of the appearance of Josh Hudson and Cannon, and the exhibition between Cooper said Jem Ward, produced a blunper. Shelton and Oliver followed next, and made excellent sport. Randall and Holt made some fine movements, but they were too methodically arrlnged, and intended rather to excite a clap, is the theatrical expression. Barney Aaron and Redman gained unhotindLd applause ; their measurement was precise, their science of first-rate order, and gi4e and take was the order of the bout. We have seldom seen a better plucked . exhibition. Harry !farmer and Cy. Davis gave some film pugilistic traits, and were right to please. The Commander of the milling forces appointed the grand set-to between Ward and Cooper last ; the patricians upon the tip-toe of expectation to witness it. It afforded the greatest trial, and both their exertions were crowned with general applause. Each had best alternately ; but Ward hits out farthest, but he was generally ?voided by the oscillation of Cooper's head, and in the James ,Belcher style. No bout ever gave mere general satisfaction. . A subscription was worked for Scroggins, who had his leg torn by a buffer, in a fight with Lenny, and by which the sturdy vete ran will be laid up for some time. It was well supported. Josh Hudson showed, but Cannon was not there. Josft looks well, and has entered upon his provender crib in Leadenbill Market. Robert Baldwin challenged any man in England, of twelve stone and a half, for 100 sovereigns, and the company left highly sweet upon themselves. THE MARKETS. CORN EXCHANGE, MARIt-LANE, fiEC. It.
