A circumstance of a very curious nature has occurred 'with respect to a prisoner, who is charged with picking a pocket. He was committed to the prison at Usk on 'the llth ult. A few days ago a young woman arrived at oats of he turnpike-gates in the neighbourhood, and, inquiring her way, mentioned the name of a relative, whom she expected to find there. On her mentioning the ,name of the person she was seeking, the gatekeeper -observed, that a person of that name; had got into dif ficulties, and had been transported. The' oung woman said she was satisfied thatwas her relation. You are anltish girl, said the gatekeeper. Yes. Another of your coun trymenis in trouble in Usk gaol for picking pockets. What is his name? said the young woman. Wallace. Wallace ! Jem Wallace! He murdered my master in Ireland. The young woman went to Usk, was af forded an opportunity from the top of the prison of seeing Wallace with several other prisoners. She immediately picked him out, and has siace given a 'very circumArntial account of an attack upon the house of her master, Colonel Hill, in the neighbour hood of Cork, and the murder of that Gentleman, some' )ex-s ago—we believe as many as four. A communi cation h is been made to the Irish Government, through .Ir. Secretary Peel, and whatever may be the event of 'tie pending prosecution here, James Wallace wiN be oetarned to wait the result of the investigation respect.' ag the imputed murder. The young woman is about years of age. She it at present staying lathe House , el Correction at Usk. • PrOVINCIAL BANK OF FRELAND...—GOVetTheIeRt have ea' sed orders to be issued from all the Offices for re• crypt of Public Revenues in Ireland, to receive in par 7 , ,ent the notes of this Establishment, Tuesday the'Chief Magistrates of the different Police Offices made their Monthly Report, at the SECRETARY of SIATi3 Office for the Home Depai tmem, of the state ev the Police, &c. in the Metropolis. BRIGHTON, Auctist 1. Contrary to general expectation, our races to day went of with eonsiderable spirit, there being five well-contested beats for the Plates. It could not be expected that the company would be ►o numerous as on the first and second dagswhen so much suscertainty prevailed ; bat io point of fashion there Iry Scarcely any falling off , The majority of the Nobility were present, including the Duke and Duchess of Richmond, Earl of F.gremont, Earl and Countess of Uxbridge, Farl and Countess filoontcharies. Lords Dunwich, G. fßnnoz, W. Russell, J. Fitzroy, and Porchester, Sir 3. Shelley, General Travers, Colonel Lyster, Merits. Kemp, Greville, Ste. Last evening, the Hall at the Otd Ship, under the announced patronage of the Stewards of the Races. the Earl of Egremont and Lord Dunwich, exhibited a brilliancy is costume with the agonies present not very often surpassed. quadrilles and waltzes were the dances of the night—two of each ; they began at about eleven, and terminated between one and two o'clock. The first quadrille Lord Dunwich had the honour of dancing with Lady Georgiana Paget, and Mr. Locke with her accomplished sister. Lord Wm. Russell was the only Officer present, of the detachments of the two Regi ments stationed here. A serious disturbance, which threatened at one time to lead to bloodshed, took plate at the carriage -entrance to the Pier last night. Lord Brudenelle, an Officer in the Bth Hussars, driving furiously up to the entrance in his cabriolet, so as to endanger the floes of two or three individuals, was called out to by a Mt. Lynn. a Gen tleman residing at the Pavilion Hotel, and desired to be more eareful. Irritated at bring thus spoken to, and, perhaps, incited by ton muck Champagne, the Meer leaped out of the cabriolet, drew his sword, and threatened to strike the Gentleman to the ground. Mr. Lynn, however, wrenched the sword out of his band, and other persons toning up at the time, the Officer was glad again to ascend his cabriolet. The sword was returned, after be had pro mised that it should be immediately sheathed. A daring robbery was committed here this evening, about nine o clock, on a Gentleman, when he alighted from one of the London coaches, jußt arrived. The villains succeeded in cutting open his pocket, and stealing about £3OO in Bank-notes and checks, with which they escaped. COMMISSION OF LUNACY. Monday, a Jury was assembled at the Secondaries' Office, Coleman -street, upon a commission of inquiry into the lunacy of Sarah Eliason, of Hatton-garden. Mr. EVANCE, with Mr. PIIILLINIORE and another Gentle. man, presided. The first witness called was Dr. Van Oven, who stated that in March, 1825, he attended upon a Mrs. Eliason, the Lady in question, who was now about sixty years of age. She had made, as he understood, an attempt to commit suicide. He found on her person some wounds made, as he was informed, with a pa:r of blunt scissors, and they certainly appeared to have been inflicted with a weak hand. He had attended her subsequently, and had not the slightest doubt that she was at the time, l and had continued ever since, in a state of mental de rangement. he was imbecile, and totally incapable of managing her affairs. Dr. Monro stated, that he had been called upon to attend Mrs. Eliason, and had found her in a state of mental derangement. He mentioned several instances; he asked her what King's reign it was? she said it was the reign of George VI. He asked her how long it was since he first visited her? She replied, that it was a year and a half ago, although it was but a few days since. In fact, she had no distinct perception of time, and he could not entertain a doubt that she was utterly incompetent to manage any affairs. A young female, who was engaged from the service of Dr. Warburton as a nurse for Mrs. Eliason, was then examined. She stated that her mistress, when left alone, sit all day long in a chair, doubling up a hand- kerchief. She sometimes refused to take her meals, and witness was obliged - to use force to compel her. She save no orders to.the servants, and did not in any way interfere in domestic matters; she was incapable. She was occasionally taken our in her carriage, when she would never allow the blinds to be up, and was very troublesome. The Lady was waiting in a carriage on the outside of the Office where theiaquiry was held. The Jury having expressed a desire to see her, they were informed that she positively refused to quit her carriage, in which she was attended by two Ladies. Mr. Commissioner PHILLIMORE, and several of the Jury, went out to speak to the Lady in her carriage. The circumstance soon attracted a crowd, who began to manifest some symptoms of * determination to know a the rights" of the matter. On his return, Mr. Phial =lie stated that such a mode of examination was ex trOiely inconvenient. He had spoken to the Lady, who appealed greatly agitated, and in tears. The answers she gave to him appeared very rational. When requested to step out, she stated that she was greatly depressed in spirits, and begged to be excused, as it would be extremely painful to her. Mrs. Solomons, a friend of the family, who hal attended the Lady in her carriage, was.examined. Her testimony was similar to that given by the nurse. The niece, who was the second Lady that attended her in the carriage, was called before the .lury, and examined. She gave evi dence to the same effect as that given by Mrs. Solomon.. The Jury returned a verdict, finding that Mrs. Miasma was of unsound mind , end incapable o f managing her affairs. RUSSIAN LOAN, NEGOCIATED DT MR. N. M.

Saturday, at the Police Office, Henry-street, Dublin, a respectable man named Allen, aged 30, was commit ted to Newgate, charged with the violation of his set• vant.maid, whilst his family were at Chapel. The girl was severely cross-examined, admonished, and per suaded to retract ber story, but she remained ineslra bles.

John Clare, the Rey. Wm. Leigh, and the Rev. G. A. Thursby, Magistrates of the County. This respectable hody of military force, headed by the civil power, marched through the adjoin. ing distr lets, which have been in a state of disturbance during this last week ; and we are happy 'to report that all is quiet, though very few of the colliers have gone to work at their usual employment. The very large body of Magistrates, Officers, and soldiers, assembled a. Gospel Oak, were received and treated by the prorie•or of the works, Wm. Yates, E:q. in a manner that reflects the highest credit on his hospitality aad generosity..— Nearly two hundred persons were accommodated with every. comfort which so short a notice c.'uld procure. Tents and marquees were raised with tarpauling, to protect the visitors fiom the excessive heat. The soldiers were regaled with breakfast and dinner, and plenty of good ale. The Officers and otl , er Gentlemen present were entertained in a style of superior elegance, and nothing could exceed the liberality, kindness, and men tion of Mr. Yates and his arni lble Lady on the occasion. Several of the Magistrates afterwards went to Dudley, to hear the complaints against those men concerned in the riots near West Bromwich last week; when, after a patient investigation, six or eight were committed for trial; several of whom, on finding bail, were discharged. .A Meeting was held at Dudley on Thursday, at which they came to a resolution " firmly to adhere" to a reduction of sixpence a day on the wages of the col. Hers, of which trey had given notice, and which they held to be" imperatively necessary." DUMFRIES, AUGUST 1. ntavese-..-The harvest is now pretty general, and the weather most auspicious for the husbandman's purpose,. Oats and barley will scarcely average half a Crop, and in some places the straw is so short, that the farmers find it necessary to pull roots and all, and turn them up to dry like a crop of lint. The spongy soils are by far the most fruitful, and where the springs take a meandering course, their existence can be traced by the varying hue and strength of the corn; and nothing is more common than to see fields which are most luxuriant in some places, bare even to sterility in others. On thin and sandy soils, the harvest in some cases came on so early, that the fields were re-ploughed and sown with rape-seed above a week ago. And such a precaution was never more necessary, for the turnip crop is far from being pro tensing, even where re-sown under favourable circumstances. The I potatoes look remarkably healthy, but some persons alarm that the rain never went to their remit, and Ahnt the produce cannot he eu- petted to be plentiful: Oatmeal and barley, of crop 1823, have become scarce as well to dear. Of the former there were only two bags in our market Fast week, which sold at the high price of 2s. 10d. per stone; and wheaten bread, of the coarser sett, was never perhaps in *rester demand. Naw Mw.—Wednesday, a quantity of oatmeal, of this year's l growth, was sold in our market here at 2s. 9d.. per stone, which was one penny below the common price.—Dionfaits Cesni;r. 4 GLASGOW AugusT,l. - • wiAlll sa--Caors.—Saturday night and els% night, we had fine rains. Yesterday we had also coploll6 islineers. The atmosphere on Saturday and Sunday was ezceediegly witty. The harvest goes en rapidly. Some fields as, already dared and their produce Is in the bare yard. In this neighbourhood fields of oats have beet reaped by being pulled up by . the roots, as they could sot be cut by reason of their extreme shortness. Yesterday we had an arrival at the Broomielaw of a vessel with new oats from Dah lia. The crops in Ireland are, we are happy to learn, with partial exceptions, good. The potato* crop, in particular, will, we are in formed, be most abundant. The harvest Is so general, and so rapidly is the grain becoming ripe in the Lothians, that hands steSclent can not be got to cut it down. In consequence of this Wages erg high 2s. 6d. per day. POTlATOM—Yesterday, no potatoes were to be had In ouemer- Item The country people have determined to raise the price to their own limits, and have accordingly desisted from bringing a supply. Never mind, we shall have plenty in a few days from Ireland, where the crop is most abundant. We also learn, that a rise of a penny on the quartero loaf takes place this day. The ac. counts of abundant Wheat crops every where will soon cure this, evil, and bring down the price 24. at least. The Liverpool guilt speculators will get over the fingers sadly. Friday last, the 28th instant, the Captain and Pilot of the steam packet Air were fined in Alflo each by the Bailie of the River Clyde, for alarming the passengers on board the Countess of Glas gow, on the forenoon of Monday the 17th instant, by steering to wards that vessel in a dangerous manner while between the Cinch and Gosirock Point.

Yesterday a meeting of the scrip holdes-orthis Comp party took place at Batson's Cog-e-house, Cornhill, for the purpose of taking into consideration the most effec. tual plan of ascertaining the *ate of the affairs of the association. Mr.Wtt.t.tara CLARK was in the Chair, and exhibited several charges of mismanagement, contend. ing that the shareholders were entitled So an explanation of the real state of the, Company's satin. which was withheld on tbe,plea that they had not signed the deed. He next adverted to the signatures which ,appeared to the deed of settlement, which was only signed for 3,028 shat es, and with the exception of four or aye & those who, had signed were Directors. One Director bad not signed in consequence of becoming a bankrupt. The auditors he understood had refused to sign, and, as he believed, because they did, not approve of the conduct of the Di rectors. Mr. Clatk concluded a long statement by subtnitting the propriety of meeting the Directors in a spirit of Peace, good. will, and liberality, and also ob serving that the most judicious couise for the Directors to pursue, no matter what might be the abuse of the discretional power enttusted to them, was to throw themselves on the mercy of the Shareholders. After several observations from other Gentkieen, a resolution passed, appointing a committee of three to watt on the Directors, fyir the purpose of inspecting the Nooks and accounts of the Company. Thanks beiag voted to the Chairman, the meeting separated.
