Be was not aware that any Gentleman attended to op pose the motion, No opposition taking place, the Loan CHANCELLOR dismissed the case without any further'observation. His Lordship was occupied the remainder of the mor ning in hearing a part-heard motion. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS-THIS DAY. SCANDALOUS BEHAVIOUR OP A CHELSEA PENSION - - _ Richard Prince, a Chelsea pensioner, and Sarah Pearce, were indicted for assaulting, at Chelsea, Edward Donaldson and his wife, under circumstances of a very aggravated and ungrateful nature. The prisoners had formerly lodged with the prosecutor and his wife, who had been induced to credit them on the faith that on receiving his pension the prisoner Prince would pay them. For this purpose they went to Chelsea, where, instead of paying the debt, the prisoners assaulted them in the most gross manner. For the defence a fellow was called, who attempted to prove that Mrs. Donald son had stolen the shawl of Pearce ; he, however, failed ; and the Jury having found the prisoners Guilty, The CouaT e to mark its sense of such shameful con duct, ordered the prisoner Prince to pay a fine of 41. and the female a fine of 21. and to be confined until the fines Were paid. The prisoners were accordingly taken into custody. COFRT OP CHANCERY--7111S DAY. The Loan CZAwczuoa took his seat on the bench at ten o'clock, and heard short motions. Several causes were then disposed of. COOKS O. DALLA SON. •:- ~ - .. r e . LONDON SESSIONS-THIS DAY. These Sessions commenced this morning, before the LORD MAYOR, Sheriffs, Recorder, Aldermen Sir J. Pitt. RING, HEYGATI, J. SMITH, Cox, and the City Officers. The Grand Jury having been sworn in, the RICORDIR proceeded to charge them, in which he was happy in Saying, that the great and important duties they were about to fulfil would not trespass long on their time, as the calendar was not very heavy. A case from the Post-Office would come under their consideration, to which he begged attention, as well as one of perjury. SURREY QUARTER SESSIONS. Yesterday, the Surrey Quarter Sessions was held at Guildford, for the purpose of considering a variety of business connected with the management of the County, and principally the notice of motion given by Mr. JOHN J. BRISCOR, the Magistrate, to consider the entire question of the tread-wheel, as an instrument of punish ment and prison labour. At eleven o'clock, Lord Mumuerou took the Chair, assisted by Lord &mos, Baron de Twits, the High Sheri( of the County, Mr. Homan Susanna and Mr. DiXl6O/1, the County Members ' • the Honourable H. G. Saunas , Sir TUOMAS T 01170316 and nearly fifty other Magistrates of Surrey. After the usual routine business of swearing in the Grand Jury, reading theProclamations,swearing In the constables, and making the different returns from the jails within the jurisdiction of the County wu disposed of, a long desultory and uninteresting discussion took place relative to the case of Mr. O'Callaghan. At five o'clock, Mr. &woe rose to make his promised motion, which was seconded by Mr. &zeta, but opposed by others of the Bench. Mr. Banco* afterwards withdrew his original Swaim, and moved “ that a Committee of Magistrates be appointed to inquire into the divers cases he had mentioned, and to deed. upon Awls by confronting all the parties concerned in the circumstances stated to have taken place in the Howes of Correction within the County." This motion was carried, and a Committee appointed to eon. duct the inquiry into the specific abuses to which Mr. Baum re. !erred in his statement.

The Fortitude, in company with several oche:vessels, sailed from Newport (Pim. mouthsbire) for Waterford, on the preceding day, and, late In the evening, the wind having veered to the Westward, and blowing bard, the endeavoured to make for Penarels Roads, but in thentp tempt ran on time dangerous shoals called the Nass Sands. At four o'clock she was •observed from the land, without a sigh yam• von on board, the sea breaking over her in a tremendous wow, ana . by seven nothing was to be seen save the bating wreck. The body of Mrs. Cmwv, and those of one of her children and servant girl, were washed on shore shortly after the melancholy event; but those of the remaining unfortunate sufferers have not yet been found. It is with horror we have to add, that when the body of Dime. was recognized by her brother (from Swansea), it was as certained that her pockets were cut off, and that her ring had been taken off her finger! Her ear.rings, however, being covered by Is hair,disorderedescaped the notice of these diabolical wretches.

" The popular Opera of La Donna del Zap was pro duced last night, for the first time this season. Madame Rota% Di BEGS'S shewed last night that the laurels of her Elena were still green, and even added something to the wreath. Her acting was passionate, graceful, and correct; her singing finished to the last de gree of delicacy. There is scarcely anything in which GA RCLA is finer than in Rhoderic Dhu. The fiery tur bulence of the chieftain gives legitimate scope to the utmost powers of that great singer, and he exercises them in a manner which comes up to the enthusiasm of the character. Cuatout has identified himself with the part of Jaws by his chaste and beautiful singing of Aurora ah sorgerai alone. He sang admirably through out the Opera, and in that singularly fine air he was encored. Madame Vaarats was the Makolm PORTO supported the father with his usual ability. ►.~: -- HAYMARKET. Love Laughs at Locksmiths, was the first piece in the order of performances last night. Mr. W. WEST and Mr. FARRNN were highly successful in their endeavours to amuse. Exchange no Robbery followed, in which LISTON, as Sam Swipes, did not fail to draw forth all that was comic in his audience. The Lady Cranberry for the occasion was Mrs. CHATTNRLEY ; and Mr. W. FARREN took the part of Sir Christopher, with great effect. The rear was brought up by Fish out of Water. ENGLISH OPERA-HOUSE. The interesting romance of The Devil's Bridge was performed last night. Mr. BRANAM acted Count Bel lino, and afforded the audience that high gratification which they never fail to derive from the exertion of his extraordinary vocal powers. In If Is there a heart that never loved," and 66 Fancy's Sketch," he was rapturously encored, and the most fervent plaudits requited his la bours throughout the Opera. Miss Nozz, the young Lady whose debut we yesterday mentioned, came for ward on this occasion, as the Countess Rosalvina. Her performance realized the hopes which her first appear ance excited, and she was again honoured with unqua lified approbation. The Opera was strongly cast throughout. Miss KELLY, fascinating as ever, was everything that could be wished in Lauretta, and charmed us with the varieties of playful mirth and strong sensibility. Claudine, in the hands of Mi ss Pover, was all the Author c ould have desired to see or hear her. The performances were completely success. ful, and the House, which was well attended from the commencement of the evening, was filled in every part before the Play finished. TRAVELS IN THE EAST. ' The celebrated Italian Naturalist, BROCCHI, is em ployed by the Pacha of Egypt to direct various scienti fic researches in the Levant. The following extract of a letter from this ingenious traveller, dated Baalbek, 14th November, 1823, contains some curious and in teresting statements: " During great part of the year I bad been wandering among the mountains and deserts of Thebals, and had returned to Cairo, when I unexpectedly found myself under the necessity of pr oc eeding to Mount Lebanon, to assist in opening a o°2l4lllms which had been discovered there. lam now at Baalbek, and shell probably pro ceed to Palmyra. In all these journeys I Stave enjoyed an unip tcrrupted good health; indeed, I seem to have grown young, again, notwklummsft my long beard, which, however, thank Go o ! i s Iplack. TN.= Cairo to Lebanon I travelled by land, chitin; the spots where once stood the famous cities of Cesarea, Ptolemais, Tyie, Ildeo, &c. and in the mountains of Lebanon (for they are not one mountain, but a large group) Inlet with many ancient rains not mentlemed by any former traveller. Nor is this very sarprishig; for, thanks to the protection of the Pasha of Egypt, which I en. joy, I even penetrated to the neighbourhood of Nubia, through countries never before visited by any European, and was wen es corted en my journey, abundantly. supplied with provisions, and respected by all the Bedouin Mobs that I fell in with. I hope to return Mme laden with the spolbof the East, with a copious Her. bariems, a lease concedes of geological specimens, and a note-book fall of amisissmotem. " To tell you semeddng of Mount Lebanese—You must know the Cbtbdoe is is the prevailing on here; besides which there b that of the lii-a which is involved in so mock mystery and secrecy that It is imp ossible to discover what le either its t pine or doctrine. The Christians, however, form Melo? sleety the population of the provinces of Kesruan and albeit. The Rank, in whose house I lodge, is a Catholic, though op account of his once, be Ands it necessary to profess himself a Mahemetan. The climate at that season is nearly the same as in the North of Italy; but we have had much rain of late, dad expect soon to have snow. I could with pleasure as several months hue; but I daily expect orders to proceed toward Mount Sinai, between which and the Red Sea some old mines of copper have been discovered. As to Baalbek itself, it is a miserable piece, in which nothing le to be found worth notice, except the ruins of the temple built by Ante:minus Pius, and noticed more than I think it. deserves by many preceding travellers." The Duke of Marlborough packet arrived at Fal mouth on Sunday, in nine days from Lisbon. By her we learn, that it had been arranged that the QUEEN'S destination should be Parma, but this she protests against, because she has not been tried : this, however, it is supposed will avail her little. The packet left at Lis bon his Majesty's ships WINDSOR CASTLE, GENOA, LIVELY, and Parmaoss, together with the French sloop of war Lynx. SOPHIA Sxomrs.—The Committee who superintended the late ascent for the benefit of the widow and. children of the late Mr. Maus have had a meeting to consider upon the means ' of relieving the necessitous condition of this female. who, though so far recovered as to be able to walk, is likely for a long period to be a burden to her poor parents. Mr. Roaysa proposed that the balloon of the ill-fated aeronaut should be exhibited for a few days, and the proceeds banded over to her. Mr. SIIIMIZAD suggested that no de.' mand should be made for admission to view it, as the benevolent purpose would not fail to meet with support. The proposal and suggestion were adopted 'amidst loud applause. Accordingly, the balloon was yesterday morning conveyed for exhibition to the gar dens of the Bedford Arms Tavern, and inflated with common air. . Numbers thronged to see it, or, with more probability, to see the un fortunate girl, who was present. She looked cheerful; but her countenance was pale, and her frame weak. CANTERBURY JULY 13.—Friday last, early in the afternoon, one of the most violent torrents of rain, within memory, , deluged the middle part of this county : it entered from Sussex, and passing over the entire Weald of Kent, Canterbury, and the towns en the sea coast, discharged an immense quantity of water, stopping , the passage of many bridges and public ways, and laying the low lands under water, spoiling and carrying away vast quantities of bay and seed grass. The extreme breadth of the clouds appeared to be about twenty miles, within the range of which great damage has been done. In this city several of the public ways were ren dered impassable, and shops in low situations suffered considerably in the destruction of their goods. The river Stour rose rapidly in a! few minutes, and the dykes were insuffident to carry off the redun- 1 dant waters. Margate suffered severely, but at Ranugete the flood rose to such a height, near the market-place, as to lay Odle cellars under walig, to the very material injury of the proprietors of the goods thetTdeposited ; one of whom, the proprietor of the London Hotel, has sustained a loss of above two hundred pounds. After pouring down almost 'beets of water for upwards of two hours, the atmosphere cleared up, and the evening was fair. THE FATAL Ficrir IN COPENHAGEN FIELDS.—The antagonist of the deceased Smith is not dead, as has been reported; he is, however, in a very bad state, and has undergone the amputation of the left ear to prevent MOrtifiCatlOn. _ 3/01•11 ~~ NEWFOUNDLAND SCHOOLS. .....1411.111•••••• The First Annual General Meeting of the Newfound land School Society was held yesterday, at the London Tavern. The Meeting was thinly attended, but this may be fairly attributed to the circumstance that the Society is in its infancy, and has pot yet gained so much of public attention as it deserves. The Chair was taken by Sir HUGH haus, and the Report of the Committee (which we shall give to• morrow) was read by Mr. PERCIVAL WHITE, the Se cretary. After describing the claims which the Co lony of Newfoundland had upon the Mother Country (as being a nursery for some of its best seamen), it noticed the want which was there felt by the lower classes for moral and religious instruction. The popula tion amounted to seventy thousand, and the number of schools was but sixteen. His Majesty's Government had, however, shewn a sincere disposition to remove his inconvenience ; had granted SOU to the Society, a track of land as a site for some school rooms, and had granted also a free passage to two schoolmasters and a schoolmistress, who sailed that very day (yesterday) for Newfoundland, to promote the object of the society. The expenditure exceeded the funds, notwithstanding the encouragement of Government; and the Report there fore concluded by calling for support from the public. Mr. TRANT, Mr. ROBINSON, Mr. CODNER, and other Gentlemen, some of whom were connected with New foundland, addressed the Meeting in support of the ap plication for public assistance. Several resolutions were adopted in furtherance of the public appeal, in thanks to his Majesty's Government, and in expressing a hope that by the next Annual Meeting the Committee would be enabled to make a satisfactory report. Thanks were voted to the Chairman, and the Meeting was dissolved. THE LATE MR. WATT. A Meeting was held on Saturday last, in the large room of the Waterloo Hotel, Edinburgh, to promote the subscription for a Monument in Westminster Abbey, to the late James Watt. This Meeting was called by Sir W. SCOTT and Mr. FRANCIS JEFFREY, as members of the London Committee, and it was understood that Lord &am would take the Chair ; but his Lordship being detained at another meeting, Sir WALTER SCOTT was named as his substitute by acclamation. Among sixty or seventy other Gentlemen, were observed, the Lord Chief Commissionet. Sir WALTER explained shortly the purpose of the Meeting, and delivered a most animated eulogium on Mr. Watt, which he most happily interspersed with many beautiful illustratious and allusions. Mr. Jar- SAZT followed at snore length, and proposed at once to commence the subscription, when Professor PILLARS' suggested that it would be far more honourable to the memory of Mr. Watt, while it would redound more to the credit of Scotland, to open a subscription of her own, for a monument in the country of Mr. Watt's birth—in the place where his inventions were fist conceived and brought to light. The Professor was supported by Mr. Joun CRAIG, from Glasgow, to whom both Si WALTER and Mr. JEFFREY replied, that the object of this Meeting was to obtain subscriptions in aid of the London one; that the monument was to be a great national one; and that no better place could be chosen for it than the metropolis of the empire. Mr. JEVIIREY was about to close the business of the Meeting accordingly, when Mr. COCKBURN entered this room, and began by protesting against so precipitate a vote on so important a measure. He said he held in his hand a copy of the intimation by which the:Meeting was called, and there was no specific object condescended on. Gentleinen were now convoked, therefore, for the general purpose of taking measures to raise a monument to the memory of Mr. Watt.' Mr. Commit proceeded to remark, that he by no' means opposed subscriptions in aid of the London one; but it would be fair and proper to state to the Public that a Scottish one was also in contemplation. He wished a monument for such a man to be erected in the' open air, so that the meanest mechanic and poorest man in the country might have. it constantly in his view, as one splendid proof of what genius and industry might achieve. He did not see the propriety of burying such a monument in Westminster Abbey, where it could only be seen by the happy few who might be able to pay 2s. or 2s. 6d. for the gratification.—The Loan CHIEF Coss- MISSION= considered that, to a man like Watt, the country ought never to be weary of testifying their gra titude and admiration, and that they might liberally assist the London Committee, without in the least af fecting the object entertained by Mr. Cockburn. His Lordship then stated, that he had long enjoyed the friendship of Mr. Watt, and paid many compliments to the qualities of his mind as well as of his heart. Mr. COCKBURN replied, by observing, that he saw some in dependent mechanics in the room, who, he had no' doubt, would instantly call a Meeting, by which Scot land would be roused to a sense of their ingratitude in delaying so long to do justice to the memory of their countryman,, in such a monument as he had been pro- jecting. The business of this particular Meeting was then proceeded with ; but it was not difficult to perceive, from the numbers who departed without subscribing (indeed all excepting six or seven), that Mr. Cockburn s view of the subject had secured general approbation,and must be speedily adopted by the public. _ _ According to a private letter of the 28th ult. from Madtid, a sealed dispatch had been transmitted by the' Government to the chief authorities in all parts of the, kingdom, not to be opened until the last day of the month, when the bells are ringing for the angelos, in the evening. Various conjectures were afloat as to its' contents, and both the Negroes and Ultras manifested great anxiety upon the subject. Orders were issued prohibiting for the future all recommendations for pub lic appointments in favour of Liberals, Ex-militiamen or Afrancesados. The Fiscal of Madrid had demanded that the Ex-Regidors of that city, now in prison, should not be included in the amnesty, but delivered up to the, arm of the law. A hot persecutioa is still kept up against the Freemaions, and the secret societies. On the road between Virkdich and Launch, at a desolate place in the Arrondissement of Trevea, two travellers sat down to rest on the 2d of June. The one was a baker's journeyman, named Kil lian. from Coblentz ; the other, his friend, the son of a wealthy Parisian, with whom the first bad enjoyed a long bespkatity. Ki lian desired his companion to Was the loaded pistol be castled with him for his safety, with which request the ether -congaed without distrust. As soon as Kilian found himself in possession of this weapon, he discharged its contents on his friend. The young Frenchman, though wounded, put himself in'a posture of defence; bat was soon overpowered, and stretched Manse on the earth. At this moment, a horseman appeared at a distance, when Kilian took to his heels without having bad time to rob his friend, as a gold watch and twenty loafs d'or were found upon the latter. The ' murderer, bleeding from a wound and dirty, applied for assistance at a neighbouring farns.house, pretending to have been attacked by robbers; but he was soon arrested. It was only by force that he could be brought to the place where the horrid act was committed; and though the murdered min lay in his last agonies, he still wai able to point out his murderer. • r~~ .~. • VAUXHALL GARDEN& Notwidotanding the numerous and elegant assem blage of fashionables which we had occasion to notice at Vauthall, on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday even ings, in the put week, we were highly gratified in wit. nessing on Saturday (being the day on which the Pro. prietors save the Annual Juvenile Fete) and on Mon day evenings, a much more numerous and brilliant dis play of rank and beauty than we have beheld for some time in these delightful Gardens, among whom we par ticularly observed-- His Royal Highness the Prince of Saxe Coburg, the Russian Am bassador, the Dutch Ambassador, the Duchess of Richmond, Mar. chionesi of Tavistock, Lord Fol kston, Dowager Counteu Howe, Lady Jane Field, Lord Sidney, Hon.

General SAN MARTIN proceeds forthwith to join General BOLIVAR in Peru, and much benefit may be expected from the military talents, local knowledge, and personal influence which he is known so abundantly to possess. Yesterday, the term of Mr. O'Callaghan's imprison sem having expired, he left the Surrey County Jail, at about ten o clock in the morning. When Franklin (of America) was a boy, seeing his father say grace over some salt meat at dinner, be suggested (as a • made of saving trouble) that grace might be said over the whole cask submit was beingpickled.
