In 1409 they performed the Creation of the World, which lasted eight days, and most of the Nobility and Gentry honoured them with their presence.- Drury Lane.—Near this place stood Drury House, the habitation of the great family of the Drurys—built by Sir William Drury, K.G. from which it derived its title. It is singular that this lane, of later times so no torious fur intrigue, should receive its title from a family name, which, in the language of Chaucer, had an amorous signification Of batailie sad of Amide,.

Eastekeap, from Chepe, a market, and East, the aspect it bears to the Chepeside. This street was famous, in old times, for its coovivial doings. " The cookes cried hot ribbes of beef toasted ; pies well baked, and other victuals. There was clattering of pewter pots, harpe, pipe, and sawtrie." Evident marks of the jollity of this quarter. Goodman's Fields, from farmer Goodman, who had a farm here—" at which farme I myselfe (says Stowe) in my youth, have fetched snanye a halfe-pent'-worth of milk, and never had Jesse than three ale pints for a halfe-pent' in the summer, nor lesse than one ale quarte for a halfe-peny in the winter, alwaies hot from the kine." • Halton Garden, from the residence of the Lords llattan, built on the gardens belonging to Ely House, which were famous for strawberries: recorded by Iloilinshed, who informs us, that Richard 111. at the council held in the Tower the morning he put Hastings to death, sent to request a dish of them. Sir C. Hatton, the founder, was a great favourite with Queen Eliza beth, and by her intereat he extorted the gardens from the iiishop of Ely, Richard Cox, who for a long time misted the sacrilege. Her letter to the pour Bishop WAS diciated in terms as insolent as indecent : " Proud P: elate ! you know what you was before I made you what you are now.

Piccadilly, from I'iccadilla It.ll, built by one Higgins, a tailor, and so called because he got his estate by making stiff collars, in the fashion of a band, then called Piccadillas, or Turnovers, for merly much in fashion. The last number of the Journal de Cadiz crntains some s ngular admissions for a paper !minted under the immediate eye of the Spanish Government. It is stated that the gars isms of Cochabamba, in Peau,ded area itself independent, and that in an afft ay between the Patriots and the Royalist garrison of Callao, the latter had 150 killed, 19 wounded, and lost many prisoners, hilst he forma lost only twenty•sis killed, and twenty three wounded. The four Canadian Chiefs have taken their passage in the Caledunia merchantman, w hick sails un S rtorady for Quebec. They appea- delighted with their excur sion to. England, earticulaily at the attention paid to them in the metropolis. .At tl.e late Gluucester S!ssinns the Chair man stated, that the charge incurred by the County at the last As sizes, for prosecutions alone, independent of the expense of commitmetos and maintenance of prisoners,arnounted to not less than 1,6001. Sunday m:irning e illy an alarming fine broke out et Epping, in the premises of Mr. MacMurtite. stationer, ot that town, which consumed his dwelling-horse, steak in trade, and every article of his hoesehald fur eitur e. Two houses adjoining were also,eiestroyed, in cluding a chymist's shop; and several others were ma terially damaged. Every effort was made to save the property, but in vain. The fire burnt with so much fury, that Mr. MaeMortlie and his . family were in great danger, and narrowly escaped with their lives. Monday, a man named Edward Page, who has suffered seven years' transportation for hous:-breaking, was taken to Urion-hall, charged with stealing a double-barrelled fowling-piece, scale 121. the property of a &avian Gentleman, named Nurinex, residing in Camden Town. The evidence appeared to the Sitting M3gistrate to be conclusive, and the prisoner was fully committed for trial. Monday se'nnight, Peter Gaol was 11.inged at Dun dalk, for tie robbery and murder of limes M.!ckey, at Drcmcal, on the 7th of November last.

Dr. Ash used to say he would have given Ivl. to have been the author of that pun. A carrier pigeon being killed on its way from Scan daroon to Aleppo, the letter conveyed by it, instead of eaching the person for whom it was intended, fell into tl.e Lands of a European merchant of a different nation. It contained information of the excessive price to which gall-nuts, the most valuable article of commerce pro cured from Aleppo, had risen in Europe. The mer chant who had thus obtained the notice immediately bought up all the gall•nuts he could find, and by this means acquired a very considerable gain. The circum. stance naturally produced a great deal of jealousy and ill-will among the Europeans, and, at length, to prevent the chance of a repetition of such dishonourable con duct, it was resolved by them, that in future no couriers of the kind .should be used. Since that period therefore the practice has been discontinued. The pigeons had been known to perform the journey in two hours and a half. The distance between the two places is between 60 and 70 miles in a straight line. Wizen a Jew, who was . a famous Dutch printer, brought to Constantinople printing presses, &c. to in troduce the art of printing in that city, the Vizier caused him to be banged, declaring that it would be a great cruelty that one man should enrich himself by taking the bread of eleven thousand scribes, who gained their living by their pen. _ • - in St. James's- VOLTAIRE lodged at INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT; Joss Caplan° is Denudes, of Finsbury-place, Fins bury-square, came up to obtain his discharge. Mr. Berneles, who is in his 85th year, had formerly been a celebrated Spanish merchant. His principal creditors were the National Bank of San Carlos, Manuel Perez, Cabelloi Herter' rltaison, and Francois Moons.- 1 Their opposition was supported by Mr. CAMPBELL, who stated that the debts of the insolvent, which were principally due to Spanish individuals amounted to 83,0001. On the other hand, it was stated by Mr., HEATH, that the insolvent had contracted a loan with the Spanish Government, and that his debts from that source, and also from' other respectable persons, amounted to 127,0001. His estates were valued at 25.0001, which would be sufficient to pay 20s. in the pound, and still leave him a splendid fortune; he , thought, therefore, that the appointment of assignees was the only course the Court had to pursue, and he felt satisfied the creditors would obtain their full de mand. The largest creditor was the National Bank of San Carlos; but the Court being desirous that some English creditor should be appointed assignee, Mr. Hoggart, the auctioneer, informed the Court that be had been employed by Mr. Bernales to sell some por• tion of his property. A considerable sum of the pro ceeds remained in his hands; but exclusive of that amount, Mr. Bernales owed him between 801. and 901. and this debt Mr. Bernales had omitted in his schedule. The Cover observed that the assignee, be be who he may. would be pin to great expense ; but under the circumstances of the case, those expenses would be de ducted out of the estate. The Court then ordered the schedule to be amended, appointed Mr. Hoggart assig nee, and directed Mr. Bernales to he discharged. The Government of the Netherlands is proceeding vigorously in its career of improving the education of the Catholic Clergy, having decided that the Philoso phical College for young Roman Catholics, who are intended for its Church, shall be established at Louvain. The subscription for the Greeks opened at Liege, continues to be very satisfactory. The Committee have resolved to apply to the Committees of London and Paris, not only for information respecting the safest and quickest way of sending assistance, but likewise to learn whether it would be more advantageous to the Greeks to send there, instead of ready money, manu factored articles, such as cloth, arms, or articles for the equipment of the troops? Saturday the 9th instant. some incendiary Sf t fire to the barns, stables, and outhouses at Canoateign, the property of the Hon. Captain PELL F.W. At the Sessions for the Eastern Division of Sussex, John Wheatley, for a gross assault on a litt e girl, named Eliza Elphick, was sentenced to six months' imprisonment; and the Bench regret ed that the law would not admit of the addition of hard labour.— Richard Wheatley, the brother of the above offender, a mere boy, for assisting in the assault, was committed in default of bail for his future go , d behaviour. Tuesday, a nest of tiightinga.es was discovered at Notting Hill, near the residence of Lord HOLLAND, on the Usb:idge road. They were five in number, but the circumstance most remarkable is, that one of the birds, all of them fn I II •dged, Ind not only a left white wing, hut also a circular white ring about its neck. Wednesday morning last, Charles, the yaungcst son of the late T. Dyke, Etal.

A yellow snake, the Boa Coluber, of Lintzits, be. tween seven and eight feet long, which had been kept in a b..rrel on board the ship Cumberland, lying off a putt in J4maica, was missed, and found two days atter, tw;vesi round the main-topmast-stay of the ship Vo.. hints es, which lay at a distance of forty or fifty yards irons the Cumberland. It is surmised that it had con trived to find its way out of the cask, though coveted with a mat, which was st•cuted dlwn by something ponderous, had gone from thence into the water, swam to the Volunteer, and bid found its way on board by' the cable, or some loose rope or other conveyance up the ship's side, to where it was found. New COTTONA paiticular species of cotton has been recently impotted into Savannah, North America, from the environs of Bogota, where it is ga:beted from trees of considetable height. it is short, arid of a brownish colour, but exttemely soft, shining. and silky.

It has been already employed in making shawls; and a grett..quantity has been sent to France, in order to ascertain it it can be used instead of silk. An inhabitant of Sctiven, in Georgia, has already planted some of the seeds of this new co ton tree. • Sir Nla:thew Decker was a man of piety and eaten. sive benevolence, and once received a strange compli ment on that score. Lord Wm. l'aulet, second son of the Gist Duke of Bolton, was so extremely ignorant as to ask who wrote St. Matthew's Gospel? some wag re plied, 41 Sir Matthew Decker." Lord William, who had beard of Sir Matthew's character for charity and piety, believed it, and being himself a pious per son, left Sir Matthew a legacy, iu consideration of the excellent work of his Gospel. The Duke of Biron heard the decr.e for his instant death pronounced by the Revolutionary Tribunal, in 1793, with unmoved tranquillity. On returning to prison, his philosophy maintained that character of Epicurian indifference which had accompanied his hap pier years ; he ordered some oysters and white wine. The executioner entered as he was taking his last re past. " My friend," said the Duke, " I will attend you ; but let me finish my oysters. You must require strength for the business you have to perform ; you shall drink a glass of wine with me." He filled a glass for the executioner, another for the turnkey, and one for himself, and went to the place of execution, where he met death with that courage which distinguished almost all the victims of that fearful period. A poor old black man in Jamaica, having tasted rather freely the contents of the bottle, was discovered lying perfectly quiet in the street : information reached the Coroner of the circumstance, and he immediately issued his warrant for the summoning of a Jury, who accordingly met, and with the Coroner, were proceed ing in the preliminary steps requisite on such occa sions, when, to the consternation of all present, while viewing the body, the man rose up and declared he was not dead as yet, and would, therefore, for the pre sent, save the Coroner and the Jur/ all further trouble. LESAL PRINUMPTIONS.—BALDus, a very eminent lawyer, of the . 14th century, and MENOCHIUS, who 'wrote on legal presumptions, in the 16th century, both lay it down as clear law, that " if it be proved that a certain man's head has been cut off, a violent presumption will follow, that that man is dead!" SUNDERLAND, Jar '23. —a, Daring the present week, the proceedings of the sailors belonging to the Union, now out of employ ment at Sunderland, have been unusually disorderly. Monday and Tuesday they formed themselves into se parate group s, _ and endeavoured to deter such sailors as were not Union men from continuing in their re spective ships. In this, however, they succeeded but very partially. Wednesday, a pretext was afforded them for a more general assemblage, by the desertion of one of their body, who had filled one of the most confidential situations in the society. The scree s at the east end of the town began to fill early in the after. noon, and it was then announced tha t the individual alluded to was to be burned in effigy. The inhabitants in the neighbourhood soon found it necessary to call in the aid of the civil power, and after a severe struggle, the constables succeeded in rescuing the effigy from the fate that awaited it. The contest was, however, by no means terminated. Tne crowd increased most amaz ingly, and with mutual and repeated exhortations of " down with the constables," drove them before them till they were forced to take refuge in the Exchange.— The High-street was jammed full from side to side, and the huzzas of the multitude, three fourths of whom were women and children, resounded from one end of the town to the other. Two Gentlemen were now seen to issue from the Exchange, and a report ran through the crowd, that it was to them the constables owed their safety. -The torrent set in with increased violence in the direction these Gentlemen had taken, who being assailed (one of them severely bruised) with brick-bats, stones, and any other missile that was at hand, sought safety in the shop of Mr. William Haddock, kin monger. Though every precaution was use,' by closing the shutters, &c. nearly twenty squares of glass m ere almost immediately demolished in his and the adjoining house, when the attention of the mub being attracted by a drunken sailor, i?r by a sailor who appeared to bv di unk, they dispersed, and the streets in a Lew minutes were as quiet as usual. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION• HOUSE. ADULTZRATION 07 Atom—There were some inaccutacies in the report of what took place at the Justice Room on Saturday, arising from the sometimes almost inaudible tone of voice in which many of the observations and assertions were made. As the subject is one of vital importance, we hasten to correct the errors as well as to add some further information which Mr. Clarke, the Operator at Apothecaries Hall, has most readily given, with the view of producing a great public benefit. The person whose adulterated flour was seized at Hull, had previously a quantity of wheat in bond, and was permitted (as is the custom) by the Commissioners to take it out, and grind it, on condition of returning 196 lbs. of genuine wheaten flour for every five bushels of corn. Instead of substituting the pure article, how ever, he sent in an adulteration of beans, buck-wheat, and flour of the very coarsest description. This compound was not under the King's locks two days, when it was suspected to be bad, and no time was lost in sending samples to the Commissioners of Customs of the Port of London. Mr. Clarke was then seat by the Lords of the Treasury to analyze the compound, and lie found it to be made of the abovementioned ingredients. lie had, upon several former occasions, found in bakers. flour an immense quantity of plaster of Paris, burnt hones, an earthy substance called Derbyshire White technically, of the most destructive nature. The colour of all those dreadful ingredients is beautifuL It resembles that of the very finest n os e, and the article is impossible to be detected in its un made-up state without a chemical ,process. Hut the compound he had examined at Hull, it was erroneous to say. contained plaster of Paris or bones. It was accordingly condemned as had been already stated, and the party fined. The Loan Marna said, the public seemed to labour under a delusion in supposing that alum was the ingredient to be so much apprehended in bread. Mr. Clarke said the delusion was most gross. Alum he con sidered not at all injurious in the quantities which it is used by the bakers.—ln the course of the conversation it was stated, that some persui,s were in the habit, it was believed, of substituting the adul terated flour in order to defraud Government, and of throwing it, when it was too bad for sale, into the sea. In most instances, it was, however, admitted that they disposed of it on the Centincot; A poor woman, who keeps a baker's shop in the Borough, called upon Mr. Clarke, upon seeing the account of what took place at the Maisim.-11ouse.with samples of flour, which she said she bad bought at G 8 shillings the sack, a price at which the best flour can be obtained. She complained that in the baking it turned airing black, and she lost twenty-two customers by it , she was refused redress, and was unable to pay for the flour on account of the bad ness of it. Upon examination, Mr. Clarke found that the article was horribly adulterated, and be advised the poor woman not only not to pay a farthing for the stuff, but to make a complaint before a Magistrate in the Borough, who would no doubt redress her. fr. Clarke says the public ought to be most particularly on their guard, in their use of confectionary at least chromate of lead, copper, verdigris, iron, rose pink, vermilion, or powder blue, might be mixed with it. lie informs us, that the adulteration by beans and peas may be detected by mixing a little of the article to be put to the test, with water and a small quantity of ammonia. The beans will turn brown, and the peas yellow, while the flour mixed with those ingredients remains white. But ammonia will not detect adulteration by burnt bones or plaster of Paris, or Derbyshire White, or calcareous substances. A small quantity of diluted sulphuric acid (oil of vitriol) will discover adulteration of all those kinds with the exception of that by plaster of Paris. Alum, he says, is used by the baker only when the yeast is very bad, and it is used in very small quantities, merely one pound to eight bushels of flour, mid can do no harm. If the Informer would seize the flour instead of the alum, be would do a real public service. MARY-LA RONNF— A man named' Passe, under-butler to Earl Manvers, was brought up under an extraordinary charge. About day-light in the morning, the Earl and his household were alarmed by an extraordinary noise, as if burglars were breaking into the lower part of the house. His Lordship and some of his servants imme diately came down stairs well armed, when they found the defend ant in a state of apparent derangement, smashing all the china and glass in his care. He was immediately secured and confined. The defendant expressed his extreme sorrow for what he had done, which be could only account for by declaring that be had lgst his reason during his sleep, and acted under the influence of some ter rible impression, which bad left no record in his meinory.---The charge not being pressed, the prisoner was discharged. Three females, domestics of Mrs. Eidnay, of Maids Hill were charged with robbing her. The Lady had missed jewels to the value of i5OO at various times, and suspecting her servants, had two of them taken to Bow-street. The evidence, however, being deemedinsulicient, they were discharged ; but bearing they had removed their trunks to the residence of the third, whom she bad occasionally employed, she had them searched, and found such proofs of their roguery as induced the Magistrates to remand them. WORSHIP-STREET. A young couple, known by the name of Debottche residing in Vincent -street, Bethnal-green, both of whom appeared to be under 20 years of age, were brought up, to answer a charge of ill-treating ' their infant child, four months old. Their conduct had frequently excited the notice and interference of the neighbours, and had pro. duced a former complaint at this odic& Upon the ptesent occasion the child, upon being stripped at the *dice, appeared covered with bruises, and instances of shocking mismanagement and maltreat , meat were adduced by witnesses. The prisoners gave a simple denial to the charges. In Wash of bail, they were both committed, and the child was ordered to be delivered by the mother to the beadle of the parish (who was present) foe preservation. The parish will prosecute. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Dariti litlywhite. the driver of the cart, No. 109,236, belonging to T. Petit, a Wandsworth carrier, appeared yesterday at this Office, before Mr. Drift, the Magistrate, on a summons, to answer the complaint of Lord Charles Spencer Churchill', under Mr. Martin's Act, for wanton cruelty to a horse, which he was driving in the said I cart. The charge was clearly proved, and he was fitted Ws. The defendant declared he could not pay the finc ; his wages was only 101. a week; but it was peremptorily cutJrctd. tYgIOYI-11A ed tit maker, e A j. ° "te custody re sidingion i f t s n:mws.D air q. :hums:lts/dr:nil D evo nshire on r le eeta , "reil s b u e l e f p i i r c vnl e i c o bce n th lt o e llo ; having violated u , daughter of his master, a child under ten years of age: The 'pristine% was further charged with having attempted to commit a similar 0:- fence upon a younger sister, so infant uoder.four years old. The former child, upon bring questioned by the Magistrate is to her knowledge of an oath, appeared to have a perfect understanding of the nature of so solemn an affirmation. From tier 'statement; it appeared that the prisoner, who worked in her father's house, took advantage of his absence and that of her mother, about a fortnight ago. Here she distinctly described the nature of the violence com;- mitted on ker person by the prisoner, who, she said, had repeated it subsequently on three different occasions, but aided, that she did net acquaint her parents of the treatment she had experienced; fearing that she should be punished *by them. She had Made it known to some of her playmates, who afterwards informed het mother of the circumstances. A surgeon, who examined the complainant, staqi, that be w 34 satisfied the violation of the c►ild had been effect The Magi;- trace, however, upon closely interrogating her, ascertained that thi capital charge could not be brought home against the prisoner, the , child having negatived the question as to that fact. The father of .the children expressed a desire that the prisoner should be conunitn.4 for the capital offence, as the surgeon's evidence, he preswhed, wae sufficient to prove the perpetration of the crime, his child herself' being of too tender an age to speak to facts of that description. The Magistrate explained to the poor man the law in such case., and observed, that he should hold the prisoner to hail in four sure ties of £4O each, to answer the charge of committing an assault, with intent to commit a rape, upon the eldest child, at the nest Sessions. The surgeon then described the nature of the injures ' committed upon the person of the younger child by the prisons ; when the Magistrate directed that the whole of the circumstance. attending that case should be also stated on the trial, and to pre vent the possibility of a compromice in the inte.iim, the (*.the' of the children and the surgeon, were lomat' over to proiecJte at the Sessions.

At the Wexford Assizes, on Wednesday last, an action of some importance was tried, in which Joust Noun/ NUNN, Esq. was plaintiff, and FRANCIS 1V YSC, Esq. defendan . . It was an action brought by the plaintiff against the defendant for writing and publish ing a false and malicious libel, reflecting on the plain tiff's character as a Magistrate of the county of Wex ford ; which libel was contained in two letters, one (a private one) written to JOHN BRIC, Esq. Barrister-at- Law, the other enclosed therein to N. P. OGoessasr, Esq. being to the Catholics of Ireland, and both di. reco.cl to the care of Counsellor O'CONNELL, Met rion square, Dublin. Verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 500/. and costs. Sunday evening (17th inst.), an extremely bold at tempt was made to steal a valuable horse from Mr. Job Lously, West 11 %bourn Farm, near Reading.— About ten o'clock, just as his cat tens were getting into bed, their candle not being put out, they fortunately heard the footsteps of a 'loose stumbling against the groundsil of the stable-door; and on linking out of the chamber-window, they observed a fellow gently leading a horse across the. dung, in order that his footsteps might not be heard. They i.urnediately called to him to inquire where he was going with the lior-e? he made no answer, but set off at a trot up the orchard. The servant immediately gave the alarm, and a seedy pursuit commenced. The fellow ap peared to have mended to have jumped the ditch with the house out of the orchard into the field, and thus to have evaded the turnpike-gate, as. well as the obser vation of the people of the street, many of wham were actually passing and repassing at the time, arid within sight of the stable-door. As it was rather dark, the horse would not jump the ditch, although, by the footsteps, he was twice or thrice led there for that purpose ; and so daring and deter mined was the fellow to have the horse, that he did not relinquish his hold until his pursuers were within twenty yards of him, when he ran away with great rapidity, and jumping across a ditch, through a brake of bushes, finally effected his escape. He afterwards tried to steal an other horse from Mr. Allen's, at the same place, but was there also disappointed. He was a short man, and had on a white smock-frock, but it was too dark to discern his features ; from his actions, it is conjectured he was no stranger to the premises. Yesterday evening, an Inquest was held at the Turf Tap, before Mr. HIGGS, Coroner, on Thomas Guy, the young man who died, as was believed, from the kick given him by a brick-maker, named William Tutlaw, alias Tatlaws. Mary Rankin, of the Royal Hospital-row, Chelsea, called, deposed that she knew- Tutlaw by sight. On Sunday she saw him a short distance from her house, and on the pavement a young wouia .- -, who was called " Scotchey," was lying drunk. Tutlaw's wife had been fighting her, and was seconded by him . . The deceased came up, and advised the woman to go sway. Tutlaw pushed his wife on one side, and then knocked the deceased down, and, as he was getting up, knocked him down again. The deceased gave a groan, and tolled over. Tutlaw kicked him a third time in the side. The deceased, on being raised, put his hands to the lower part of his body, and seemed to be bent double; the blood streamed from his face and mouth. The witness's husband asked him if he was much hurt? but he made no answer. The witness called out that the deceased was mach hurt, but no person• would take up the quarrel; they were all afraid of Tutlaw, who is a desperate fighting character. Two witnesses were examined, one of them a woman of the town, who de posed that the deceased struck Tutlaw before he was knocked down by him, and that Tutlaw did not kick the deceased. Both the Coroner and Jury expressed their conviction that this evidence was not deserving the least regard. The Jury, with the perfect concur rence of the Coroner, returned a verdict of 4. Wilful Murder" against William Tutlaw.
