He was speedily extricated, and taken to a surgeon's to a most lamentable state. Saturday last a theft of a most extraordinary na ture took place in this city. A person who calls him self Smith, and appends to his name the distinction of LLD. by some means or other contrived to steal a girl of ten years of age hom the Orphan Hospital. On the discove , y, the managers were thrown into great con sternation. and every effort was instantly made, with the aid of the police, to discover the retreat of the fu gitive. Mr. Monro, messenger at arms, was dispatched to the eastward in quest of him, and was so fortunate as to trace him to hfusselburgh, where, after diligent search, he was di.covered on Sunday morning with the child, and secured atter a desperate resistance. The hone,' town was thrown into some confusion by this discovery. Sir John Hope, on being informed of the affai►, with the greatest readiness immediately came in Person, from Pinkiehouse, to interpose his authority as Justice of the Peace. Smith was brought to town its custody of Mr. Monro, and after examination by the Sheriff was fully committed for trial. The child has been restoted to the Hospital.--.Edimbarre Observer. VICTUALLERS. Yesterday was given the Anniversary Dinner of that benevolent Institution, ler which this country is so• de servedly celebrated—the Licensed Victuallers' School. The .number present was greater than has ever been known on any former occasion. Mr. L. SZACiill was in the Chair. and discharged the various duties which his office required in a manner as highly creditable to himself as it proved useful in augmenting the funds of the Institution. The report of the state, expendi ture, and receipts of the Institution was highly gratify ing, as also the appearance of the children of the school, whose correct and modest deportment attested the un ceasing care and attention of those to whom their superintendente and education have been confided. The picture which they presented, on being introduced to those who have so nobly come forward to snatch them from ignorance an 4 vice, and confer upon them the blessings of education, was such as the eye of benevo lence could not fail to'rest upon with satisfaction and delight; and the feelings which their appearance ex cited in their benefactors conferred a tar higher enjoy ment than wealth could otherwise purchase. The day was spent in the greatest harmony and conviviality, in peace and good fellowship. THE WEST INDIA TRADE. Yes erday evening his Grace the Duke of Wellington, and most of the other Members of the Administration, dined at the City of London Tavern, by invitation from the merchants and planters of the West Indies.

The CHAIRMAN nest proposed " Hls Majesty's Mkiisten."— (Loud cheers). The Duke of %Vacuums, on the part of himself and his col. leagues, returned thanks. The CHAIRMAN then rose to beg the company to join with him.in drinking the health of " the Marquis of Cbandos," who had been unanimously voted to the Chair of the West India body. The Chairman paid a high compliment to the public spirited individual he was now proposing. The Noble Marquis had accepted the office when the affairs of the Colonies were not ir. the moat prosperous condition. He (the Chairman), how ever, felt a confident hope that, under the administra tion of their distinguished guest on his left (the Duke of Wellington), the difficulties which surrounded the in terms of the West Indies would be removed. He con cluded by drinking " Long life and happiness to the Marquis of Chandos--(Cheers). The Marquis of CHAtspos ',turned thanks, and ex pressed the obligations he felt at being elected to the chair of the West India body. He would do all in his power to promote the interests of the Colonies. with which WAS blended the prosperity of England. He felt a confidence that under the administration of the Noble Make the West India Colonies would 'simper. He con• chi led by proposing 64 prosperity to the West Indies:.

Monday the Quartetly General Meeting of the Trustees of the Andersonian University was held in the great Hall of the University Building‘, George -street, Jams A. Arianism', Esq. President of the University, in the Chair. After the reading of the minutes of the Directors for the last quarter, a Report was laid before the Meeting of the progress of the buildings, both as regarded the interior and eitterior alterations and im provements, which referres with satisfaction to the in crea•ing interest telt by Cite friends of the University in the extension of the museum and library, not only by large and valuable donations. but by interesting others in the same good cause, and concluded by giving a list of recent donations to the University. The Cumsmeti then proposes the thanks of the University to Mr. Smith, of Jordanhill, fur the very great attention he has paid to the interests of the Uni versity, and the deep interest hr takes in its prosperity, which was carried with much applause. Mr. SMITH made a neat reply, and said that though what hr gave were sometimes atticles of value to him in his studies or pursuits. he derived some gratification from giving them to an institution so eminently calcu- Wei to be beneficial as this was ; and besides, he was persuaded, that while in the University they would be useful to others, they would still be nut less useful to him.el . The Trustees then proceeded to the election of Pro fessor. for the Chairs of the principles of Painting and Sculptate ; of Mineralogy and Natural History; and of French: and Italian; and on the. secomnsendation of the Directors, made choice of William Ross, Esq. jun. of Howard -street, Strand, London, as professor of the principle. of Sculpture and Painting; Dr. Scouller, as professor of Mineralogy and Natural History; and B. Jourdan, Esq. as professor of the French and Italian languages. The Treasurer then announced the state of the funds from which it appeared that the University, atter bor rowing the sum necessary to complete the improve ments. will have a large annual surplus for extending the University, or reducing its comparatively small debt. After a vote of thanks had been given by acclama tion to the managers of the last year for their *unions, the Meeting proceeded to ballot for Managers for the ensuing year, and the scrutiny ended by declaring the Managers of last year re-elected. The Trustees then left the great hall, and proceeded to inspect the fine new rooms, in which the apparatus is displayed at one view—in compartments, inclosed with glass doors, and arranged according to the history And distribution of physical and chemical discovery. With these, and the handsome library, which is grace- fully supported by fluted columns, and ornamented with fine paintings. and busts of literary and scientific as. ratters, the Trustees were highly gratified. Arrange- ments are in train for affording regular access for view• ing the institution, under the charge of a librarian, to the numerous parties of intelligent and opulent strangers who now make the visit to tilasgow one of the most interesting objects of a Scottish tour.

Wednesday morning the remains of this hapless young Lady were consigned to the burial ground of All Saints. Poplar.. Though it was intended that the funeral shoulJ be conducted with the greatest privacy, and at the least expense, yet crowds of the sympathising inhabitants of Poplar assembled in the Church-yard. The corpse, which was conveyed in a hearse, decent, but unostentatious, was followed by a mourning coach, in which was Miss Adolphine Both. accompanied by Mr. Ramsey, the parochial Churchwarden. On its arrival at the north-west gate, adjoining to which the grave had been dug, Miss Both, assisted by Mr. Ramsey, left the coach, and proceeded to the Church, in the aisle of which the corpse was placed on vessels. To describe the feelings and agony of Adolphine would be impossible. The funeral •evince was performed in an impressive and feeling manner by the officiating Clergyman, the Rev. Dr. Hall, and at about ten minutes before eleven o'clock she was interred. Miss Beth, the eldest sister, from extreme debility. the consequence of the melan choly catastrophe from which she so fortunately escaped, was unable to attend the interment of the deceased; but so grateful did she feel for the kindness of Dr. Hall, that in the evening she sent him a message, returning him thanks, and expressing her regret that it was not in her power to evince her and her sister's gratitude in a more marked manner. PLYMOUTH. JUNI 25. Senores Plera.—Tois person, who has excited so much speculation. made his appearance in our streets on Monday, and attracted, as miyht have been an ticipated, an immense crowd of spectators. Among the various conjectures afloat respecting this myste rious Piper, is one which supposes him to be no less a personage than the Pope in disguise, come, no doubt. to aid his friend Daniel the Prophet, in his apostolic lama, s. Others, however, assert that he is a common mendicant, from the truckle roan of ' Aberdeen awa'. Were this conjecture just, we should have no objection to select those Scotch seminaries in which such mendicants ate brouslit up, for the education of our own children. - •We had a per sonal. interview with him, and were led to conclude from his general information, and the urbanity of his manners, that he has been accustomed to associate with the better classes of society. He is a tall, well proportioned, and good-looking man, of needy six feet in height, clad in hodden grey, with a Kilmarnock cap on his head, and a black silk handkerchief rounds hi, neck, and be wears green spectacles, for the purpose either of protecting his eyes, or possibly of increasing his disguise. The instrument upon which he plays is not the common Scotch Bigpipe, but the Union Pipes, and his performance is marked with taste and pathos. Whether his enli amen' in the service of the ' , joyous science" be the resuk of whim or of wager, he has, ae are well assured, during Iris peregrinations, made many handsame con tributions to charitable institutions. His travels termi nate in August. at Berwick-upon-Tweed, when he pro mires to kfford complete satisfaction to the public re specting' himself, and the motives which lei to his extraordinary undertaking. His collection at Plymouth on Monday amounted to 18s. 6d. at Devonport, on Tuesday, to 19s. 7id. and at Stonehouse, yesterday, to 11 Ss. 6d.

TROTTING MATCH. Wednesday evening a trotting march took place between two hones belonging to two sporting Gentlemen residing at Lambeth. for 30 sovereign'. The wager was which horse would gn over 14 miles of ground on the Wandsworth road in the least time. The first horse, a fine bay one, nearly 17 hands high, and only six years old, aiming nine stone and a half. started at a quarter past dz. end accomplished the measured mile on the Wandsworth road 11 i times in ten minutes less than the hour. The other boric then started, but it was apparent from the first that be bad not a than.. and at the 14th mile his backer gave up. the hour having elapsed. The reason for trotting the horses one after the other was to pre vent the possibility of any unfairness arising from either of the banes breaking—horses being less liable to do so when running alone than when together. To this cause many persons attribute the defeat of Miss Turner, in her late match with the American _ phenomenon, Rattler; sbe having broke no less than four tinsel' in a very short space, and cony time was obliged to be maned round.

Jiessrs. J. and B. Dirk were the umpires. ROWING MATCH. Hum., Julia 23 —The match between the two gigs, the Grey. hound and the Red Rover, for 101. aside, was decided on Friday evening in favour of the former. The interest excited by this exhibition was interne. Long before seven o'clock (the time appoint• d for the boats starting) the popu lace were observed boycotting in every direction toward% such situa tions on the banks of the Humber as were likely to command • view of the proceedings; and sometime before the signal was cap cred to be given the foreshore and the piers were crowded to excess. The roofs of most of the buildings in the vicinity of the Hombre afforded accommodation to numerous spectators, who aimed at pining a more extended view of the race from the advantage offered by their altitude ; and even on the tops and rigging of the Tenth in the Humber dock basin; and Old Harbour, there were many to be observed on the look out. The river itself preiented an exceedingly animated sight; it was covered by boats of every de scription, amongst which we recognized most of the gigs that have been launched since the passion for boating first showed itself in this eiciai.y. Five of the steam packets that trade from this port were observed cruising about, filled with company. two of them being provided with full bands of music, that further enlivened the gay scene. Every thing being prepared for starting the two gigs took their stations abreast of each other, near a boat moored a: the distance of *bout forty yards from the shore, and distingui.hei by a flag. The Red Rover was distinguished by a small red colour at her bow, and the Greyhound by a blue one. Some time before steno o'clock. a gnu was filed from the boat already mentioned, as s signal to the craft on the rivet to keep a clear road for the contending . partsee. The signal was promptly attended to, the boats all pulling off with the greatest alacrity, and the steamers th.pitig their colorer an as not to interfere with the line of contest, and yet to afford an unimpeded view of the race to their pas,engers.. Rrtactly at seven soother gun was fired, as a signal for starting, and the two gig. pulled atria grand style. The Greyhound took the lead, and kept it throughout the race. By the time of their arrival opposite the piers the ituver was several boat's lengths behind her competitor. In their progress its wards the Hebble buoy, which fanned the extreme point of the race, the Greyhound bad gained very considerably on the Hover. On the return towards the starting-place the Greyhound soon gained upon the Rover, and it was very clear she was booked [or the winner. She was bailed by the acclamations or the spectators as she passed the throngs that lined the shore, and arrived at the starting-place at exactly 40 minutes after seven, the Jimmies being, assegai as we can calculate, about six miles. At the tittle the Grey. bound arrived at the winning.point the Rover was immedicely abreast of the patent slip. i. e. about 200 yards in the rest. The spectators soon after this began to disperse. the steamers re• turned into port and discharged their passengers,and the cumermis small boats made their way to the several lauding places. Notwith. standing the immense concourse of individuals assembled on this occasion ea the &bores . and the number of boats out, altugeilier forming a scene anprecedeuted, we believe, W Hull, not a smile accident occurred. The Greyhound it 41 feet in length. and the Red Rover 31 feet. Aliont two o'clock on Tuesday lett, I meeting took place in a field near • Hampstead, between a Captain W. sag Lieutenant in which, at the second ere, the latter re. ceived his adversary's ball in the knee, which it fractured, and lodged in the other thigh.
