A party of police, headed by Peace-officer Harris, apprehended, between one and two o'clock this morning, at the Fox and Geese, a man and woman, under suspicious circumstances, The man proved to be a deserter from the 58th Regiment, who had robbed his p, y ;erjeant of Si. and there was found ou him a sum of 21245. sd. On the woman, two shirts, which Lad been stolen from the Itrgimrtit. They were committed. A most diabolical outrage was committed on Saturday night last, on lite globe lands near Clones. A large quantity of eats, the pro. party of Dean Roper and others, was maliciously scatte red, and in part destroyed, and a large stack of turf set on fire and consumed. The fire was fortunately observed, about one or two o'clock in the mornit.g, by the servants of one of the innkeepers returning to Clones %%id% horses. On giving the alarm, and approaching the place, there was no person to be seen, although the destruction of the property must have been the work of many hands. This morning, between the hours of six and seven o'clock, a sawyer, earned Patrick Bryan, whe resides in South Earl. street, was met by a slumber of men in Bishop-street, and was most cruel.y and severely beaten by them for working contrary to the rules 1 ,id down by his trade. The poor man said he did not know any of the party. The Countess of awn.; is gradually recovering frcm her late indisposition. His Majesty's brig SPHYNX has arrived, with the mails from New York and Halifax; the former dated the 7.(1, and the latter the 17th of August. Sir Joins )(we, Colonel bl‘Lsosi, Captains JOHNSON and Cu:, came home in the Seer":. Toe bet efit to the country from the Order in Council is already perceptible in the fall of 6s. a quarter in oats. A dividend of 135.4 d. in the pound has been declared of the estate and effects of Messrs. Johnson, Adamson, and Hope, of Whitehaven. GIBRALTAR, Auo. 18.—The heat has been most op pressive. .The Colombian privateers are destroying the Spanish trade along the coast. There is now one in the bay, and every time it weighs anchor, three vessels of war belonging to Spain do the same. The Colombian expects assistance, and a fight is expected. At a Renfrew hire Meeting, on Thursday, on the mo- Om of Mr. MAXWELL, it was unanimously agreed to apply to Government for a grant of 80,0001. in order to commence the formation of a rail-road frcm John s:o Ito Ardrossan. The whole expense is estimated at 12.0 OWL 40,900/. will be subsctibed by the county. Messrs. GIBBONS and Co.'s late banking premises in Birmingham, have been taken by the Bank ot England, for a Branch Bank. Other branches are to be stablished at Bristol, Liverpool, Leeds, and Swansea. Some days ago A Gentleman from London arrived at Malvern, with his carriage and a pair of horses; soon after he had alighted at an hotd, the master of the house claimed one of the horses, which, it appears, was stolen from hint about eighteen months ago. The Gentleman had purchased the horse six months. A thi:f named Roberts, who ran away with a silver milk-jag in his hat from a Gentleman's house in Sack viile-street, on Monday, was detected by the milk run ning down his face. 4 They who carry butter on their he says the proverb,' should not walk in the sun.' The following singular occurrence took place on board the Friends, Captain Lightbody, on her passage between Belfast and Nlaryport. She having a tin vane at the mast-htad, representing a sailor taking an observation With a quadrant, pinned upon the spindle with an iron pin, a seamew or gull came and actually took out the iron pin, and after that flew away with the vane to a cnoside; able distance and dropped it into the sea, amu sung itself with it there for some time, after which it came buck to the vessel. Wien the accounts of the astonishing success of Bo- NAPARTZ arrived in Italy, a young Nobleman observed, that he had gained most of those advantages from the a%istance of some new Generals he had created. 44 I know no General he has lately created," said GZORGE COLMAN, " but one—General Consternation." _ _ In the infancy of steam navigation, the packets im pelled by steam were not permitted to land their pas sengers at the quays which the sailing vessels were in the habit of using, but were compelled to anchor at a distant and inconvenient part of the harbour. Oa one occasion the Captain of a Holyhead sailing packet im periously directed the steam packet to stand off, and not come near him; when the Captain of the steam packet told him he would be glad yet to carry coals for a steamer. A few days ago, one of the late Holyhead sailing packets entered Kingstown harbour, laden with coals for the new Government steam packet. There are now in circulation a great number of coun terfeit half-crowns and shillings, so well executed as to require a pretty close examination to distinguish them from the genuine ones. The half-crowns are of the date of 1818, and the edges on each side are raised so that the surface of the piece is more hollow than that of good coin, and the King's head is flatter and rather broader. Tlie,abillings, are dated 1819, and the im pressions, both on the right and obverse sides, are a little more raised than on the half-crowns. The letters on each are clumty and irregular; and the metal of which the pieces are manufactured is a mixture of copper with zinc. The wash on the outside is of a dull whiteness ; but the truest criterion to ascertain their quality is to weigh them. 'fhe front of the shop of Mr. Dale, music-seller,"ltt Poultry, was on Saturday nearly demolished. The rater portion of the large plate glasses in the window nies were broken by a dray horse, which backed :elf upon the pavement, and coming in contact with window, soon strewed the pavement with the ruins. E ich of the glasses destroyed were worth 31. but the law will not award him more than the price of common gl ASS to replace them. On Saturday afternoon a fellow was observed lurking betot e the shop window of Mr. Picket, jeweller, Oxford street. At length he broke a square of glass, and seized ‘p , ll some gold articles. He was immediately pursued a number of persons. On his way he knocked down veral persons who attempted to stop him, and ran with .c.l speed that he soot made his escape with the c•perzy. MOVER, SEPT. 4. The amateurs of rowing, and, indeed, all those who tatke any interest in the aquatic amusements which ap pear to be the fashionable science of the day, are anti cipating a rich treat from the promised Regatta in our Bay on Thursday next. The spectacle will derive in creased Eclat from the sweepstakes just formed between three galleys from this port, 'Deal, and Folkstone, of fifteen sovereigns each. In the art .of boat building these towns are unrivalled by any place in the world, Flushing not excepted ; and tfieukfi the Oxonians and Eton men pride themselves on building light boats, they may perhaps feel a little surprised to hear that these 32 feet galleys, which are of the most perfect model and finished in the best style, do not weigh more than ISO lbs. each. To the curious in the art of row ing, for a mechanical art unqoestionably it is, and one that was comparatively little studied prior to the esta blishment of that important Institution The Royal Yacht Club," the rowers engaged in the sweepstakes of Thursday have modes of pulling peculiar to their respective ports, the Folkstone men, for instance, are accustomed to a short smart stroke; those of Dover use a stroke of a greater length, turning themselves at the time sideways, so as to face each other; and the Deal crew are famous for the long heavy stroke so fa miliar to persons acquainted with the Djwns. These galleys often extend their trips as far as the French coast, and boast of the velocity of their movements ; but the contest of Thursday will determine, in a great measure, to which method of rowing tre most efficacy is to be attributed. Several yachts are already arrived; the town is crowded to excess, and many distinguished amateurs have signified their intentions of being present. The beauty of the Bay and the natural adaption of the place for a Regatta, excite now some little surprise that it should not have been proposed before; the large amount subscribed sufficiently shews the eagerness with which the idea was received by the inhabitants.

The East India Company's ship Marquis Camden was to leave St. Helena for Penang, on the 6th of lune. Saturday three farmers were convicted in mitigated penalties by a bench of Magistrates, at the Gull:hal!, Helston, for offering wheat for sale at the public mar ket which was short of measure; and on the same day, ,two boys were committed to the county prison at Bod 'tr.in,.by the Mayor of Helston, for stealing fruit from the garden of the Rev. Mr. Stab,back. S me people will be art to doubt whether equal justice required the sending of two boys, children, perhaps, to the tread mill, for taking fruit from the garden of a Rev. Gentle man, whilst adults, who have defrauded those, probably, poor persons, who purchased their corn, of a portion of the food they find it so difficult to procure, ate let off on the payment of a mitigated penalty. SALISIURY, Sam 2.—Our venerable Bi.hop arrived at his Palace in the Close, yesterday, in good health, after bolding various Visitations and Confirmations throughout his Diocese.

THUNDER S rowc—Wedursday last a severe storm of thunder, lightning, and rain, was experienced at Knaresbrough, Boroughbridge, and their vicinity. The peals of thunder were tremendously loud, and the light ning vivid and incessant. At periods during the storm the rain fell in torrents. The fields, the hedges, the trees, and the atmosphere itself, assumed the sublime appearance of being enveloped in liquid fire. BRIDLINGTON / AUG. 29.—Sunday evening about nine o'clock, a luminous meteor of dazzling brilliancy was seen at Bridlington, for several seconds, in a NNE. di rection; in disappearing, which might be compared to bursting, it presented bright sparklings of a reddish yel low colour. The night was beautifully clear and serene. Fin, Auo. 3l.—Sunday evening last, at about a quarter before nine, there was seen in this city (St. An drew's), a highly luminous meteor to the south-east of the city. When it was first observed it had the appear ance of a comet of transcendant brightness, having a nucleus of about half a degree in diameter. It appeared, to shoot forth in 2 direction from SE. to NW. over a circular path of about 35 deg. and gradually diminish ing in magnitude, until it finally. disappeared. What was perhaps most remarkable in this meteor, was that in its orbit it did not present an unbroken volume of light, but appeared to throw out bright sparks in all directions, resembling in some degree a sky-rocket.— The same appearance was observed at Cupar at the same time. • STIRLING, Amor Si. Sunday last was marked for the sudden rise which the thermometer experienced, rendering the atmosphere so sultry, that we were reminded of the late great heats, and which was not diminished by the peals of distant thunder that continued to grumble during the after noon. At a quarter to nine o'clock in the evening, one of the grandest celestial phenomena that has occurred fora long petiod was exhibited. The air was calm, but there was a heaviness which indicated a surcharge of electric matter. A vivid glare of light, tinging every object with a pale blue colour, suddenly blazed forth in the heavens, rendering the minutest object visible as at noon day. The eyes of every person in the street were instantly directed to the east, where a most sublime sight met their gaze. A large body of fire, in shape like a jirgonelle pear, and apparently of the size of a bee-hive, was moving in a direction from S.W. to N.E. with a rushing noise, something similar to that of a rocket. It left behind it a very lung train, not of sparks, but fluid-like, and of the most resplendent prismatic colours. It continued visible for nearly fifteen seconds ; having gone over a space of about 45 degrees, and de scended apparently so low that it actually seemed to approach within a hundred feet of the e.trth. Having assumed a deep crimson tint, it was extinguished with out any explosion, several pieces of red ma ter, like cinders, falling perpendicularly downwards, which were evidently the burnt remains of the nucleus. In the discussion of the project of the Mexican Con stitution, it was objected to the preamble of the law, that it mentioned the functions then in the course of being exercised to have been confided to them " under the auspices of the SUPREME BEING ;" and it was pro posed that " in the name of the Almighty Goo" should be substituted. Subsequently, it was suggested, that the words " GOD, three in one," should he adopted ; but, after rather a sarcastic conversation, the origi nal expressions were agreed to.—Reports, on various• matters of local or internal arrangement, were re• ceived frt , m Committees which had sat, and days were named for taking them into consideration.—The Congress were then occupied with the discussion of the question, " That the state of Mexico is an integral part of the Mexican confederation." This, we should hardly have exprcted, would have been denied, or re• coiled to lie affirmed. It was, of con; se, carried in the affi,mative. The Constituent Act swis at length voted on the 21st of June to have been sufficiently discussed, and adopted. A variety of propositions were brought before the Congress, for the regulation of the tribunals of justice; and, among other resolutions, one for the I encouragement of vaccination was carrit.d. John Bradshaw, millwright, has been examined en a charge of breaking into the Old Methodist Chapel, at Leeds, with intent to commit a felony. From the evidence, it appeared that on the night of Thursday, the persons who occupy the house adjoining the chapel were alarmed by some persons attempting to break into 1 their house. Having procured assistance, a search was made, when a paic of shoes was found on the outside of the chapel, and on entering it a box of phosphorus and matches, together with chisels, gimblets, keys, and other impknienks of housebreaking, were found in the chapel; on further examination it was found that the floor of the steward's roam, which is over the library, had been cut, and a hole made sufficiently large to permit a person to get through; and upon a further search, the prisoner was found lying under one of the seats in the Chapel without his shoes. The master of the prisoner represented him as a steady, industrious, religions young man, who had been a teacher in a Sunday School upwards of a year, and who was to have beets examined on that evening preparatory to his being admitted to preach.

She is reported to have on board a general cargo, and they have been obliged to put her on shore, and scuttle her, to extinguish the fire.—P.S. She is stated to be the Exeter packet, of Exeter. The Thetford, ----, from Hull to Rotterdam, was on shore at Hasbro' on Sunday, and it was feared would be wrecked. Crew saved. • The Herald, Mum, from Sunderland. struck on Sherringhant Shoal on Sunday morning, and sunk. Clew saved. The Haileston, Gusmesa, froni the South Seas, has been con demned at the Mauritius, as unseaworthy.

The BRITON frigate, Captain Sir M. Mozwczz, recently returned from South America, will be paid off to-morrow at Woolwich, and then be fitted again for service. Lieut. JAY is appointed to raise volunteers for the Navy at Hull. Extract of a letter from Genoa, dated the 24th ultimo:—" By the arrival of a vessel which left Cagliari on the 11th inst. we learn that a master has reported to his consignees that he had left Lord COCHRANE in that Bay, on board of a fine large steam-veseel, almost as long as a frigate, and that his Lordship had been there upwards of six weeks, waiting, it was said, for some ships to join him."

The betting, yesterday, left Belzoni about the same favourite as at the Sporting houses in St. James's at the close of the week-9 to 4 was taken, but the closing offers did not reach quite so high. Bedlamite went back a point, very heavy sums being hid against him by one of the best judges in the room. It appears likely that Mulatto will change places with him before the week is out, 10 to 1 being taken freely, and a good party to back him. Lord Wham cliffe's two keep pretty well together, with scarcely any variation in the odds. Paul Pry went back a point or two, 14 to 1 being laid. Tarrare is stationary, and The General has taken a more favourable position ; few others ire deserving of notice. The current odds, at six o'clock, may be thus quoted; ST. LIM I ;ER. 30 to 1 apt Shortwaht 40 to I agst Pirate 40 to I agst Mac Adam 1000 to 15 apt Fanny Davies 1000 1610 apt Garcia WOO to S apt Fall Moon 1000 to 5 agat Barclay to 4 apt Belzoni 8 to f apt Bedlamite 9k to 1 apt Mulatto 13 to 1 apt The Dragon 13 to 1 apt Crusader 14 to 1 apt Paul Pry is to 1 apt Tarrare 9$ to 30 apt The General Full Moon starts for the Cup at Pontefract; his success there will decide whether he runs for the St. Leger. THE RING. CANNON atm Jam Batts.—Last night was appointed for making the second deposit good of "0 a-side for this fight at Tom Cribb's. Cannon was early in attendance; but on time being called, Jem stated that his friends had disappointed him, and therefore he was under the necessity of forfeiting the ten pounds down. He meant nothing but fighting, but he could not come to the scratch unless aided by his friends. ARCHERY. Monday se'nnigbt, a grand Target of the Woodmen of the Forest of Arden was held on Menden Heath, when the Master Foresters gold medal was won by the Honourable Henesge Legge; the Senior Verderer's silver medal by the Hun. and Rev. Richard Bagot ; and Henry Cad Adams, Esq. was declared Lieu tenant of the Target. Wednesday was appointed for shooting for the silver arrow, and many bowmen assembled ; but from the un favourable state of the weather it was postponed till Friday, when it was shot for at 9 score yards, and won by the Lord Warden. Lady Harriet Scott having drawn No. 6, the Warden's number, received an elegant gold arrow. The bugle horn of Arden was then shot for at 11 score yards, and also won by his Lordship, who obtained six arrows in seven ends. Mr. Tyler was the fortunate holder of the Warden's number, and received a beautiful gold bugle. In the evening the Digbeian gold medal was presented to the Hon. and Rev. C. Finch, as captain of numbers, and the silver medal 20 the Secretary, the Rev. T. C. Adams, as lieutenant of numbers. There are, it is said, somewhat about 180,000 quar ters of Bonded Oats now in London, besides some con siderable quantity in other parts of the kingdom; and, as the earliest importations, about last May, were made on very favourable terms, good feed Oats being delivered here, including all expences of freight, &c. at 15s. or 16s. and the very best descriptions under 20s. it will, after payment of duty : and allowing for the present reduction, yield a handsome profit. But it is a question whether many of the later transactions will prove so profitable, as Bonded Oats have been on the advance for some time past, and the sales last week were as high as 245. or 255. The par ish of Cholesbury, in Bucks, has become tithe free in an extraordinary manner. The Rector, the Rev. Mr. RoDER lc, finding that the tithes cost him more than they were worth—that in fact they impoverished rather than enriched him, declined exacting the tribute any longer. The Clergyman having to pay poor rates on his tithes, found that for every 20s. of tithes which he received, he paid 235. in poor rates. • On the last night of Mr. MACRZADY'S performance at Liverpool the House was splendidly attended, the ap plause throughout was enthusiastic, and 'upon his coming forward, atter the curtain fell, to address the audience in the following speech, there was a general waving of hats and hankerchiefs in the pit : " Lames awn Grestasairm—As this la the last time I can have the honour of appearing before an audience of my country for a very considerable period, I beg leave to trespass on your attention, and address a few words to you on an occasion which has a serious and affecting interest for me. The parting expression of my gratitude— the homage of my feelings—cannot be offered anywhere more ap. propriately than here—in a town which holds so distinguished an ascendancy of wealth, numbers, and intelligence. I cannot take leave without emotion, even for a time, of a country to which I owe every thing which is so dear to me --of public to whose patronage, and liberal estimation I am indebted for whatever I possess of fortune or of name. " In adverting to these my obligations, I would not be thought assuming any thing beyond the little credit due to unwearied dili gence and zeal. To the cultivation of a difficult, and truly difficult, art, I have given, if I may permit myself to say so, days and nights of silent and laborious,. study—t 'rutin' and applying to it the classic remains and monuments of -atiquity, those severe and eter nal models of taste. In its exercise I may have incurred censure— some, perhaps, as just as severe—others from which I might appeal ; but I also have had the happiness of finding my humble efforts most generously appreciated ; and whilst I can reflect, without any bitter ness, on the sentence of my less indulgent judges, I must ever cherish the most fervent gratitude towards those whose opinion* have more befriended me. Ladies and Gentlemen, it now only re , mains for me to express, particularly, my sense of the public pa tronage with which I have been, on many occasions, honoured by you, and of the various proofs of individual civility and portend kindness which I have received in this town. With those grateful and endearing recollections, Ladies and Gentlemen, I leave my native country ; and with the assurance, that by no distance of place or time can they oblitavd or weakened, I respectfully bid you [ farewell."
