Archdeacon Owes was Prebendary of SA. I "Me Vicar of Pompton, Oxfordshire, and minister of 134 •Pdary's, in this town; and was known to the literary ' , wad generally as an antiquarian of the first order. He was the lineal male representative of an ancient British family of high rank ; and was eminentlyflersed in the historic lele of past ages. As a preacher he was much and justly admired ; and to his family, his friends, and the public, his decease has occasionecLa chasm that can never be adequately supplied.—Salopiam Journal. yesterday numing.* created here and the of most barbarous , kept by a per. dill.

Since the days of Captain BARCLAY'S tar-famed feat of singing and begging his way through England, scarcely a week has passed but one or another of our brethren of the broad-sheet has ann'unced the arrival is his neighbourhood of some singing Gentleman" on a begging and ballad-singing excursion, to " decide a wager." A man arrived here on Friday night last from Ambleside, dressed in tartan clothes; he pro. fessed to be a ballad-singer, but was refused permis sion to sing in the streets. On Saturday, however, he sold or gave away his ballads. A report was spread that he was possessed of " loads of money," and that he treated everybody about him; of course, " everybody flocked to see him"—for " everybody" is marvellously fond of " cheap drink;" and as he threw about his money like a fool, he must be a " Gentleman." On Tuesday night, we understand, he gave a ball to a number of persons at the White Hart, and treated all around him. To•day (Saturday) it is said he will ex hibit in .the market-place, 'where be is to have a table and sell ballads, and treat all buyers with a pinch of snot, or a glass of wine, we have not ascertained which. He is a tolerably vulgar looking personage, and speaks with a broad Scotch accent.

We understand that Captain Bathurst at first ex. pressed a wish to be buried in England, bet that be afterwards said it would be better to bury him in Malta. The Admiral conceiving the wish first expressed to be that nearest the veteran's heart, resolved upon comply. ing with it. When Captain Bathurst was laid in bed after his wounds had been dressed, he found his leg in an uneasy position ; he therefore called to the Surgeon, and re. quested him to move the limb, saying in a tone of apology--" I'm a little fidgetty just no*—but I hope you'll excuse it.' When Captain Moore was brought down wounded. Captain Bathurst recognizing his voice, exclaimed, "Ali! Moore, is that your—.. Yes," said Capt. Moore. " I'm wounded."—" Ah," replied Captain Bathurst. " Fortune de guerre." The Assistant Surgeon of the Hind cotter, tender to the Asia, was dressing a wound, when an alarm was given that the enemy were boarding. He immediately threw down his instruments, ran upon deck, seised a pike, and helped most manfully to repulse the foe. This being done, lie went below, and quietly resumed his surgical operation. He has been removed to a large ship io consequence of his bravery. Captain Davies, of the Rose, whose bravery and ex. pertness in extricating a French vessel from a Turbid' fire ship we noticed in our last, was in the chains of thi fire ship at the moment she blew up, and was actually blown from her into his own boat, without receiving any considerable injury. We regret to state, that Hill, the Marine, whose coolness at the moment of losing both his arms, we noticed in our last, died at the Moral Hospital, Stone house, at one o'clock on Tuesdsy morning, in misc. q_uance of his wounds. He warebout 21 years of age". The following characteristic anecdote of this brave. fellow is worth relating t—After the fatigues of the action, one of the Officers of thnGenoa lay down to teat. . himself on a chest on which poor mutilated troll was sitting. Presently he was aroused by heatiogsouse coo near him singing, and recognising the voice he ex. claimed with surprise, " What 1 Helll4s that you sing ing?' " Yes, Sir," answered Hill, " I'm trying what t Can do at ballad singing, now I've lost my atms." As the purser of the Brisk was assisting the Surgeon in dressing an amputation in the Captain's cabin, a shot struck off his head, and shattered it to pieces. Some of the 'philters wounded the Surgeon in the head, and entered the wound he was in the act of dressing. A marine on board of the Genoa had one of his arms shot off in the heat of the action. He coolly took up the severed arm and laid it on the shell:piece over him, saying, "'There's an example for you all." . The remains of Captain Bathurst will be buried with military honours, at eleven o'clock in the forenoon of this day (Thursday), at Stonehouse Chapel. A proces sion composed of .the Officers and men of the fleet, the Royal Marines, and all the troops in garrison, will attend the body to its resting place.
