HEREFORD, Ammar 9. About: o'clock en Friday lilt, Ms Royal Highness the Doke of tloucester, attended by his Aisle-de-Camp Major Forster , arrived et the Cutts Hotel , Brecon ; and immediately afterwards they walled through the wens and public protoenades of the town • and b o ing visited Brecon Priorj, the seat of the Right Hon. the Rad o f Camden. and the much•adntired Priory Grove, they returned to the Castle Hotel, where they dined. After dinner they enjoyed the `salubrious air of the beautiful walks around the Hetet. His Royal Highness slept at the Hotel ; and the next morning left Brecon, on his way to Newton, the seat of the Right Hon. Lord Dinner,' near Llandilo Vawr. • DUMFRIES, Auouar S. Harvest is now so general, or rather universal, that there has been some demand for 'bearers in the Dum fries market within the last tenor twelve day; at wages varying from 20J. to 2s. according to the period for which the parties were hired, or the distance of the farms to ihich they were sent. But the demand, we fear. will soon cease; for the wheat, which ripened remarkably esay. is not only cut. but in most places carried.

The company consisted en tirely of 44 opesatives." After the appointment of a Chairman, a string of Resolutions was moved and car- I;;44 (without the formality of accompanying speeches), which recommended an immediate reduction of all pro perty end' allowances In Church and State; not merited by public , 'maims and usefulness of commensurate value; and then, and not before. a- reduction of the is National Debt, through equitable adjustment." To these propoials were added others for a sale of Cronin lands, and a odical rerorm of the House or Commons. They entirely left out any hint of their own immediate distresses. One or two of the party afterwards broke through a protracted silence, and touched upon the state of their sufferings. At the meeting of the Segni. sitionists for a public Meeting, held last evening at the Sproad Eagle Tavern, it was determined to call a Ge neral Meeting of the inhabitants. In the mean time the •Requisitionists have appointed a Select Committee among themselves to carry the thing into effect. FURTHER PARTICULAR. OP THE ACCIDENT AT Lt. unPoot..—lt appears that three children have been taken out of the ruins of the house adjoining, the roof of which was carried in by the walls of the warehouse. A man,his wife, and a child, have been also dug out of the ruins ; the wife and child had brought the husband's dinner, and they were dining together when they were hurried into eternity at the same instant. Two other men have also been taken from among the heap. From the situation of the mass, no doubt but the upper tier of yanks are broken in, aud probably the other tier may be injured. The loss will be very heavy, and where it will fall is at present unknown. It has been stated already that Akerman is the place appointed for the conferences between the Russian and Tat!fish Plenipotentiaries. This is a town of Bessara bia, ceded to Russia in 1812. It is about 100 miles from Odessa, and about as far from Reckeneff, the ca pital of the.province. It contains in the town and su baths 11,937. inhabitants. The climate is healthy, and the sturoundinicountry rich and fertile. The Poipt has recently exercised clemency towards nearly three hundred persons implicated in the conspi reel ai 4 e. . Catlismari of Ravenna, &c. by reducing thew ihaspripossment to one-fourth of the term to "which Max had hoeoaentenced- Mr. F. 4ipptc4 a mercer at Chichester, was thrown from his horse last week, on Levant Common, near that place, and so seriously Lured that he has ever since laid in a l stupor, from which it has been found impossi ble to rouse him. It appears that the wholesale prices of meat irs Lon don have been for some time cheaper than at many of the country markets, while the retail price is from Id. to3d. a pound dearer. Wednesday a sparrow, perfectly white, was shot by a Gentleman, at the village of Fulford, near York. The East India Company are about adding to their vtarehousakhaving purchased the whole of the N•iith side of Ilaydos-square, Minories, for that purpose, the !t , lirses of which are now razed to the ground. Yesterday mining, a gentleman of the name of llswicesworth, who resides in Bayswater.road, went tl the Serpentine River, in Hyde Park, for the purpose of bathing, and while undressing himself, was accosted by a young man of genteel appearance, apparently about I'7 or 18 years of age, dressed in a fashionable blue crock coat, who sat down upon the margin of the river, and began reading a book, while Mr. 11. swam some distance from him. Before Mr. H. came out of the waters he observed the youth walking away, but had 'IN the least suspicion that he had robbed him ; on pro ceeding to dress himself, however, he discovered that his watch and eyeglass, which he happened incautiously t ' ) have brought with him, had been ' taken from his DUBLIN, AVOVST 7. . A riot occurred on Tuesday last at the F.sir of Dromore. An immense mob bad collected‘ . togmber, the leaders of which are notorious Ribbonmen; and had a sham fight among themselves, in order to attract the Police first, and to attack them afterwards. The Pc;lice were but few-..tut they approached the mock corn batanrs without losing a moment. In an instant the whole body of the mob earned upon the Constabulary party, commenced an attack with weapons and missiles, in the most ferocious manner. The Police were at length obliged to fire in their defence, and one of the ruffians fell, but not before a policeman had received so cruel a mangling, that he expired yesterday morning. Three of the ringleaders are in custody. The new :team packet, the Kingstown, on her way to Wexford, last Wednesday - week, had a most wonder ful deliverance from being consumed by fire in the middle of the night. Some bottles, containing vitriolic spirits, which were conveying hence to an apothecary residing at Wexford, having broken, the fluid ignited on coming in contact with the outside of the steam engine, and some teas and other packages which were near immediately took fire, and for a time the appear ance was most awful to those who were the spectators of it, and not the less for some hogsheads of spit its being near the flames. Every exertion which skill and pre sence of mind could suggest was made, and made with success; and after a time the fire was extinguished. ADJOURNED MEETING As awe ROYAL EXCHANGE, FOR THE RELIEF OF THE POOR. Saturday, at twelve o'clock, was the hour appointed for the Meeting to take place, and berme one o'clock were observed among those assembled Lord Clencurry, Lord Rossmore, Mr. Blake, Mr. Moore (one -of the Members for Dublin), &c. The Lord Mayor being absent, the Chair was taken by Cot. GORR. The Rev. Mr. Gupta stated chat he had received a communication from the Lord Mayor, stating that his Lordship had been taken suddenly ill. Mr. Groves then proceeded to read the Resolution passed at the last day's meeting. Sir 04nm Moana st and several other Gentlemen said that Mr. Home was the first entitled, with reference to the proceedings of the last day's meeting, to address the Chair : Mr. Hoses animadverted upon the absence of the Lord Mayor, opon whose conduct he bad formed a resolution for a vote of censure, which, however, he would not, on account of the apology he had heard, now press ; he had, however, since he came into the room (being aware before he entered it, that the Lnrd Mayor would not be present), come to the determination of not entering upon the subject of a Loan and National Market, which he had also brought under the notice of the meeting on the day they had last assembled, until his Lordship would be present. It had been said that he had been assisted in the erection of the public build ing to which public attention had been drawn ; bat he would now proclaim to the world, boldly, and without any fear of contradiction, that no man, in what he had I done in that respect, had assisted him with a single penny : it was the produce of his own industry. (Hear). Mr. JEWUTER said, that whenever the poor of Holland were in distressed circumstances they were supported by the Government, on a proper application-to the Ma gistracy, until they were placed in a situation to support themselves comfortably. As to Mr. Home, he hoped he would not abandon his motion, and that he would at all events, persevere in his truly useful project - Mr. LAWIMIS conceived there should be a public meeting held for the object Mr. Home bad hi view : he should therefore make a motion to that effect. this motion Mr. Lawless accordingly made. but he eventu ally abandoned it ; and a requisition was drawn up and signed on the spot, for calling on the Lord Mayor to ' call a meeting for the purpose. The Rev. Mr. Gamma read a letter from Henry Grattan, Esq. apologising for his absence, and enclosing a memorial !fora the poor operatives in the silk, woollen and cotton trades, in approval of the establishment of a market and of a loan fund. Mr. Moonz, the other Member for the City, declared his approbation of the substance of this memorial, and moved that the documents that came from Mr. Grattan should be referred to the Committee. Mr. GROVeS begged, as a private individual, to give his approbation to the plAn of Mr. Home with respect to the Loan and National Market. The CHAIRMAN said the great object now was to ascertain what was to be done—be had drawn that day all but SOL of what hid been collected for the übe of the distressed. Mr. CoLs—There was no city which had more public charities than Dublin; and he trusted that any part of the fund that might be raised, which could not be ap t plied to restoring the operatives to employment, would be handed over to the Mendicity or some other chari table Society, to distribute relief to them.—[Here there was a cry of several operatives, of a No, no, Mr. Cole ; we will die before we receive suck relief." Mr. Meoar presented s motion for the memorial, &e. to be re. tared to the Committee. Lord CLONCUItRY regretted that any adjournment had taken place, because procrastination was death.— No country was ever in a greater state of wretchedness than this at present, and he was sorry to say that there was every prospect of its being greater. He was rather unfavourably disposed to a loan fund, as he did not think that loans had been useful in Ireland; neither did he approve of employing the weavers on the road. Mr. Stssort defended the Committee for empinying the people at road labour. He said he was sorry Mr. Home's plans were not followed up. With reference to what had fallen from the Noble Lord, respecting his doubts as to the utility of loans in this country, their usefulness was supported by the evidence taken before Committees of the Lords and Commons. Mr. MAKS pressed upon the Meeting the necessity of not wasting time, as from the increase of fever several persons had been refused adtnission In the Hospital on account of its fulness. Dr. STIMUSS said, that at that moment the peopte were actually dying on theroads ; and that fever was increasing in parts of the Liberty to a frightful exteat.—(Hear, hear). Mr. KIRWAN, Mr. IlLarta, and other Gentlemen, warmly recommended that the Committee should, from use great pressure of distress, inomediatel) retire, pro, teed to business, and receive such subscriptions as might be offered. _ _ Lord CLOSCURRY then moved that Mr. Moore do take the Chair. when thanks being voted to the Chairman, the Meeting separated. A handbill was distributed at the Meeting, stating that there bad been employed by the Committee, in road-labour and breaking stones, 1,630 persons, on whom were depending 4445 souls. Em ployed in aleasing the Liberty, to prevent contagion, 259 persons, on whom were depending 1,037 souls. Gratuitous relief had ►een given to 1,011 persons, on whom were depending 6,466 50u15...-. rotal, 13,11011 souls. Mosaic gold at last turns out to be foe bran.

CORNWALL AND DEVONSHIRE MINING COMPANY. Yesterday the S:sareholders of this Company met at Batson's Coffee-house. Cornhili, for the purpose of taking into consideration what steps. were proper to adopt fo. the protection of their interests in the Association. Mr. Woosxr, in the Chair. Mr. CLARK addressed the meeting at considerable length, and , after detailing the several charges which he before advanced against the projectot s of the Company, he said that he attended the Directors' Meeting on the 4th inst. and experienced much difficulty in gaining ad mission. At that meeting six of the Directors, namely, Mr. Peter Moore, Lord Palmerston, the Hon. Mr. Sul livan, Sir William Key, Mr. Philip Persine and Mr. Newman, in reply to his interrogatories, declared, upon their honours, that they knew nothing of the transac tions imputed to the projectors. He gave credit for sincerity to the declarations of most of those Gentlemen, but he could not conceal that he entertained suspicions of the veracity of one or two of their number, who should be nameless. It was proper to observe that Lord Palmerston contradicted some assertions made by Mr. Kershaw at , a former meeting. Here Messrs. &taw and Ron, in explanation, 'hewed that the words of Lord Palmerston did not amount to a contradiction of Mr. Kershaw's assertions, and that the statement of each was perfectly I consistent with that of the ether. Mr. CLARK proceeded : the truth of his allegation was denied by Mr. Wilks; but before he had done with that Gentleman, he would disclose his conduct in other Companies, which, if he were rightly informed, would eclipse all the statements made with regard to him there. It was curious enough that Mr. Wilks now imputed in sanity to him (Mr. Clark), and gave out that he was mad.—(A laugh).—This was a strange charge indeed ; for Mr. Wilks had served a notice of action on him, and' surely a man could not be very wise who would go to law with a mad-man.—( Much laughter).-9n the 16th of April, as he before stated, 200 Shares Were for the first time issued, and , on the two following days 1,000 Shares were ordered to be purchased, and to be 'paid for at a future day, though it was well known at the time that no such number of Shares was in existence, and in the interval before the day of payment arrived 5,800 Shares were issued to meet this object. Now, who drew the drafts upon the Bankers for the payment of those Shares? Why, Mr. W. Kershaw, Mr. W. Aston, and Mr. P. Moore. Admitting Mr. Moore's declaration on honour, that he bad not particip. ted in the 41,0001. to have been correct, it was clear enough that he knew of this transaction; and if it was dishonourable in Mr.Wilks to have contrived it, fully as much culpability attached to time who made themselves instrumental to its exe cution.—Until that transaction was explained, he bad no hesitation in saying, that Mr. Moore was among the number of those whose veracity he suspected. It was worthy of remark, that no minutes were kept of the proceedings at the Albion Tavern on the 7th of April, where it was decided what sums Mr. Wilk: was to pay and receive for the Mines. The only statement on the books was, that Samuel Barrett, Esq. M.P. (for Rich mond), presided; but the persons who attended the meeting were not named. It was the object of the pre sent Meeting to appoint a Committee of Shareholders, to co-operate with the Gentlemen who acted on the part ,of the g:ripholders. Resolutions were then agreed to, appointing a Committee, ac cording to the recommendation of Mr. Clark. The Crianatas said Mr. Clarlis admission to the meeting on Fri day was most strenuously advocated by Lord Palmerston and the Hon. Mr. Sullivan. Mr. SWAN, a mining agent, :hewed several copies of the orignal agreement entered into by Mr. Wilk* with Mr. Teague the vendor of some of the mines, but which the latter was prevailed on to cancel before he was paid the final instalment due upon them. New agreements were drawn up, and Mr. Swan said that every mine was now forfeited, accurding to the terms of the contract. THZ ARlM—Yesterday, the several Troops of the els Dragoon Guards, or Carbineera, now stationed in Blackburn, were reviewed by General Hussar. Sunday morning, Mr. Sutherland, engraver in Aber deen, went to bathe near the mouth of the river Don; but being unacquainted with the nature of the bottom, and no swimmer, he unfortunately went beyond his depth, was drawn into a whirlpool formed by the efflux of the river, and drowned. ADV/DITVABRIL—It was common in the reign of Queen Elizabeth for young volunteers to go out in naval enterprises, in hopes to make their fortunes, by discoveries, conquests, or some other means. These adventurers, (probably making amorous conquests a part of their scheme), vied with each other in the richness and elegance of their dresses. Sir Francis Drake, in his expedition against Hispaniola, had 2,000 such vo lunteers in his fleet. The estimated number of looms propelled by water and steam power in the United Kingdoms, including those in preparation for working previous to the stag nation, and as near as any calculation of the kind can be made, is 57,000. The average produce, taking it at 22 square yards of cloth a day, makes 1,254,000, or 1,741 yards a minute; weekly, 7,924,000; monthly 31,250,000 ; yearly, 576,200,000. Allowing six yards to each person, for yearly consumption, will supply 62,700,000, and will cover 62,700 acres of ground, and its length would extend 213.750 miles, and reach across the Atlantic Ocean 71 times. A disgraceful fellow was trapped the other day, well horsewhipped, and cu adrift, after having undergone the fornigatory process of tarring and feat ering the ieg _ insolvents past 6 At the close of the sitting, the Court decided* pen the following important case—ln the matter of tbeion of William Sweetman, an insolveut,who was disobliged in the year 1820. Mr. HSATII supported a rule Nisi, obtained M a former day, which called peremptorily on the insoluent to show cause why his discharge should not be retraced, he being now of ability to pay all the debts mentioned in his schedule. The rule was obtained upon the affida vit of Mr. George Martin Bird, of the &mai Brotaning and Bird, of Waterloo Wharf, who are creditors to the insolvent's estate. It appeared that in May, 1820, the insolvent peti tioned this Court for his discharge, which he accord ingly received; but as his schedule was blank as to property, no assignee was appointed. A short time before the insolvent then went to prison, he conveyed over to Wm. Goddard freehold and leasehold property of considerable value, and that after the discharge was issued, the said ptoperty was re-conveyed to the in solvent, and it was sworn that the said property is far mo.e than adequate to pay the insolvent's debts. It was farther stated, on oath, that in the year 1824- the insolvent stated the circumstance to Messrs. Bird and Co. who advised him to vest the property in a Trustee 'or the benefit of his creclitqrs;, without prejudice,. td himself and family, they (Bird and co.) consenting to advance the money to pay of the Annuities whic'b the insolvent had raised thereon since his discharge in 1820. To this proposal the insolvent agreed, and a deed r as prepared accordingly ; 'but the insolvent alterni, is mind, and refused to execute it, and had neglected.by other means to satisfy the demands of 'rue Learned Gentleman then proceel what way the property in question ha, backwards and forwards, and that the was worth s 781. 17s. clear of all ineut (Mr. Heath) had been informed that this offered or intended to offer 501. a year his debts, on condition that he might in his possession. He hoped that the accede to the proposition, as by such the creditors who had laid out of theit :even years would double that period mands were settled. He (Mr. Heath; too bold an applicaion for an insolvent . pr , to require an indulgence which the most honest would have hesitated to solicit. Under all the circumstances of the case, be hoped that the Court would exorcise its power, under the 14th Sect. of 53d Geo. 111. cap. 102, and compel the insolvent to pay his creditors, and that permission might be given for the Assignee to sell the estate without hindrance or stipulation. Mr. Coons, for the insolvent, said that, since his dis charge, he had spent several hundred pounds in im proving the premises, it would be hard, therefore, to deprive him of the benefit, and the Learned Counsel begged to say that his client would pay SOL per annum. The Learned Cum COMMISSIONZR then took a re view of the case, which he considered one of great importance, both to insolvents and to their creditors. Under all the circumstances the Court would make the rule absolute to its fullest extent,•and he hereby ordered it accordingly.
