At the late Geueral Meeting of the Plymouth Royal Naval Club, General Ten( h presented that Institu ions (throng') Captain Rotheram) with a model of the fore mast of his Majesty's ship Vic•olv, with all its wountts, immediately alt. r the battle of Trafalgar, accompanied by a letter, of which the follnwirm is a c^py • " Persinscs,JAlSVAUT DV. " MY DEAR Sift—ln the case accompanying my let ter will be found a memento, requiring no comment on my par, of the proudest day in the British Naval An-J nals. It was obligingly given to me by Sir Robert Sep• pings, at that time the builder of Chatham Dock-yard, soon afier.the Victory arrived at that port for repair, suh.eqoent . to the glorious 21st of October, 1805. My, feelings, as a Member of the Royal Navy, and of the Plymouth Royal Naval Club, leave me to hope and believe that this testimony of trey respect and regard for the service at large, and the Club in particular, will, when considered in connection with the name of Nel son, and the great event it is intended to commemorate, however trifling in magnitude, be deemed by my friends and former associates as not unworthy of their acceptance, and of becoming hencelorward the property of the Insitution. I should have solicited this honour at an earlier period, had not the case unaccountably eluded my search until lately, when I rejoiced at dis covering it. Through what medium can I so appro priately address the presentation of this tribute of re.- 1 membraoce to the Royal Naval Club at Plymouth, as to the Officer who had the honour of filling the distin• gui,hett station of Captain of the ship bearing the flag of the Admiral, the second its command at Trafalgar. " To your kind offices, my dear Sir, I commit it.lnd request you to believe me , with every consideration of respect and esteem. your faithful and obedient servant, (Signed) " WATKIN TtENCH." " Captain nOTIIIIIAM. CAL" The curious present having been accepted with every mark of re. *pact for the donor, by the General Meeting of the Club, of which Captain Rothersm was Chairman, he has addressed a rep:) , to the General to this affect January is, 1827. My DEAR SIR—I return you my best thanks for the honour you have done me by your letter of the 10th inst. accompanied by the invaluable relic of the ever to be lamented hero's conquering ship Victory, and for con stituting me the organ of presenting so precious a mo numeric to the Institution of which you were so active a promoter. As this is the day the sub s cribers have met for the purpose of making the necessary arrangements for the present year, this inestimable memorial of Bri , taniria's glory, coupled with the name of Nelson, has come most opportunely ; and I have the honour of conveying to you in the collective names of the Club, their unanimous sense of the obligation conferred on our Institution. Sincerely regretting that your absence prevents our having the happiness of your continuing a member of our Board, your name as a honorary mernhCr will remain enrolled on our records,, and your presence at any of our stated convivial meetings will ever be held in the highest esteem, and by none mote so Oar by, dear fair , Your , obedient humble servant, General Timm EDW. 11.0111 ERA M. The model is to be stepped in a piece of the knee of the Victory, ..gainst which Lord Nelson staggered, and fell, on recei•ing his death wound ; it is then to be inserted in a bit of the old Royal Sovereign. The blue flag of his Lordship, in silk, to be displayed on the stall; and the whole to be placed on the Club table, immediately on the removal of the cloth, regularly after dinner. A Hter from a British Officer at Lisbon contains the following intelligence LiSbon, Jan. I.—The ships have an ar rived out, after excellent passages.

Monday morning se'nnight, at seven o'clock, a fire broke out in the coach stables belinging to the Sara cen's Head Inn, Maidenhead, occasioned by the care lessness and negligence of one of the horsekeepers in sticking his candle in a staple which was in the post, and afterwards leaving the stable with the candle in that situation. Through the promptitude and activity of the engineer (Mr, Lovegrove), who was im mediately on the spot after the alarm was given, with the Corporation engine, it was speedily got under, with• out extending to more than the two adjoining stables. ' Saturday evening, about six o'clock, as a decent 1 'rfting female was walking along Bridge Road, near the Marsh Gate,-Lambeth, she was observed, by some of the persons passing, to be taken suddenly ill, and to fall on the pavement. Some of the watchmen conveyed her to the Surrey watchhouse, and Keyse, the &rise' in tendant, immediately sent for a surgeon, but before his arrival, the unfortnnate woman had expired. The body was subsequently conveyed to St. George's workhouse, Where it now lies, and although the parish officers have used every exertion to discover t he f r iraidsof the deceased, their inquiries have hitherto been unsuccessful. In the pockets of the deceased were found a letter addre,sed to a person namedJaryis, soliciting pecuniary assistance, together with a clasp knife, aid lour shiaings in silver. A dreadfel accident occurred at Mantsingtree on Wednesday last, on the river Siour, between Mistley and Wrabness Point, to a poor man named Eaton, who was on the look out for wild fowl. He was in the act of incautiously pushing the boat from the shore With a larpc gun, such as are generally used for wild fowl shooting, when it went off, and the charge tote off one of his handy, and shattered the aim in so dreadful a manner, that it merely hung by a small piece of lesh. It also carried awat the calf of one of his legs, and others% i‘e him. He was immediately brought home to Mistley, and attended upon by the medical Gentlemen of this place, who amputated tie arm. The poor fe.low lingered in the greatest agony until the fol lowing morning, when Ike expired..--syfolk Chronicle. YeSterd.ry mornine, as a number of boys were sliding by the side of the footway, oKosite Clarence-place, iieckney mad, a Gentleman's horse took fright, ran on the ice, and fell with such violence, that the rider's 'boulder was dislocated, and the animal :eyelet,' bruised. VA** *deft., MON TIIt vile 111111A1.11. --- - Mr. Wik:e was well and at Rome upon the 14th of December last. We have seen a letter of his of that date, addressed-to a reverend friend in our neighbour hood, from which we are kindly permitted to indulge our readers with the folowing interesting eatttets "1 have passed and repassed the Afps and the Appe• nines ni Naples on the one hand, and Sunny on the other rind in a third direction hate found myself eel-. ing toss girds the cot►tfitnes of Terikey, and of Christendom it,elf. In every sense I have been seeing a great ',eel itf the world, but it is still dragging a lengthened „chain,' for by contrast or coincidence I am repeatedly reminded of the friends. the customs, and the institu ' lions of our ow•p country." • • a The last winter was celebrated by the Catholics as the holy year, or jubilee, a period which occurs once in half a century ; and alter the vicissitudes the Church hid gone through in the intermediate time, this was seiz-A as an occasion for a shew of strength, and as 'such highly imposing. Pilgrims from ell quarters, like voters at elections, were brought up in such withers as to make our election crowds appear trifling, Their assembly in the holy city, like that of the times of old, was particularly grand; neither age, sex, poverty, nor infirmity, seemed any check; and in the mixture of de pravity and wretchedness one was occasionally reminded by the staff and the heavy bundle, of the figurative Pilgrim of Bunyan. In Rome, all this was received as an acceptable service, aad three days' entertainment allowed at the Conveat of Santa Trinita to refresh their wearied virtues: Here a ceremonial awaited them of a truly impressive kind. Princes. Cardinals, and wealthy citizens attended upon them to Jo them menial 'service; and the unevaded homage of washing the pil grims' feet, and of waiting on them at supper was offered, and received with the solemnity of a sacrament, as if cornmeal , rating the hospitality of Father Abraham entertaining angels unawares. "'Towards the close of this alum canto, the ferment appeared to approach its crisis. Those votaries, poeti cally wild, •nd Narahrout as autumnal leaves, That strew the brooks of Valambrosa; are said to have amounted, on Christmas eve, to sixty thousand souls, a third of the entire people of modern' ltome—a crowd that, if assembled for any but a friendly purfose, must have been dangerous to the state, but at the ca/1 of a Priesthood, and for devotion, indicates both spiritual and political strength. With such an evidence of zeal as this, at least a fair set off against oar Presby terian Wark of the Wast, the Catholics are abundantly 1 'erved with other meals of perpetuating, if not extend ing, their power. All ranks and conditions—all tn-des' of life—all forms of Government--all systems of belief, excepting only a heretical denial of its authority, are' allowed and protected; even Russian and Armenian Greeks are acknowledged; and as a chanarfion, our own, Cobbett has been pressed into the service, and his letters to the Catholics of Ireland translated by the title of ' 11 Storia delgia Reformationi Protestante,' were pla carded in large letters last winter in the streets, to be sold for the edification of the Catholics of Rime." • 'II have heard it asserted, that of the two of the pre sent day, Protestants are the most intolerant; and Ca. tholics regard our island with the same interest they would a distant frontier, as the scene where the war has been waged, and where the integrity of their empire is still disputed. This I felt on witnessing the theatrical representation, while at Vienna, of Schitler's tragedy of Mara Steuart. The spectators were of high quality, and the interest they took in it was intense; the fidelity of acting and costume was like history itself—but what furnished to me mere feelings of homely nationality, gave to them recollections of - their persecuted faith.—. Of the two rival Queens, Mary and Elisabeth, the Kerne ginne von ScAotland was the favouri:e, seemed regarded as a martyr in their cause; and while the story of her sufferings drew tears from every eye, I could observe, as an indicati n of party spirit, that certain applicable 'passages were applauded, and that every Mistrials dame in the house was adorned, out of compliment, with the well•known lace cap and bonnet of Mary Queen of Scots." • • " Whether these expectations shall ever be realised or not, one thing is clear, that no reconciliation can ever put an end to the distinctions and discussions between Papist, Lutheran, and Calvinist. Perhaps it is well it should be so—the hostility of one is for the well-being of the others. Rot while we have so much reason to boast of the advantages cur age and nation have derived from Protestantism, all who visit Italy must be struck ss ith the wonders that Catholicism has called forth. The talent that has Been devoted to their Church is immense. Whether right or wrong applied—here is a moral effect —here is that, the employment of intellect, which dis tinguishes Christianity from all (other religions. If the Chinch of Rome has conitmned the tut of Talma, it has created that of Raphael—it has lat en the nurse of the sits; but painting seems its favourite child.. The Pagans have been better sculptors than the Christians —theirs was a corporeal system; bnt it was left for painting, with all its undefinable powers, over colour and form, over light and darkness, to represent the Mysteries of a spit itual Revelation. The art of painting seems made for the scrv:ce of Christianity—would that Use Catholics were not the only sect who have seen its advantages!" • • This letter concludes with a most feeling and in ieresti”g telerence to the home, " to the blue hills a his you li," and to all these early associations, which appear still to be present to the mind of our amiable countryman, even upon the banks of the Arno and the Tiber, but from which, as they involve local and per. son II references, we are unfortunately not permitted to Lao act. We hare only, in conclusion, to express a wish, which we know and feel to be national, that Wilkie may, in due time and in vigorous health, he resumed to his relatives, to his friends, and to his conittry, and that lie may long live to enjoy and to perpetuate that reputation to which his beau not less than his extraordinary talents, so decidedly entitle him., By accounts frym Mexico to the 3d of December, we learn that the measure for loading the horn of cotton goods with high duties h so far confirmed, that a measure to this effect has been submitted to Congress. A few days since, a boy, nine years of age, son of the f reman of Mr. liernsdale, tradesman a: S rEford, was plating with a lad about 15, who was on a visit to Mr. Ifemsdale; Khrn a dispute arose, and tie latter threat. er,r,T to shoot the former, ran to a drawer, in which .Mr. 11. jun. keeps his pistols, one of which he seized, and (it is presumed), not knowing it to be loaded, tired it at the child, when the ball pierced his cheek. Sur gical aid was immediately procured ; but he is still considered to be in a dangerous state. POLICE ME'LLin.Exc',.; • GUIT.DFIALL, Blartrpe Efigdwri, a well devised young man, was charged with forging and uttering a cheque upon a banker for A'::4lk, It was proved by Mr. Booth, clerk to Messrs. Ilanhory . s, the bankers, that a cheque for 1:345, dated October 5, 1826, drawn in fs`eour of Mr. Widiatis Wright, and pueporthrgto be signed by Mr. Sewell, a hop merchant, in the Vortical', and who kept an aecount at their house, Wail. en the 4th October, presented tube cashed. A 8300 note and forty.five me:reigns were paid to the person who presented the cheque. He had on recollection of the person to l 'whom be paid 11w money, nor could 1w swear that the siguattare to die cheque was not Mr. Sewell's liandWithig. " Mr. Shepherd, assistant to Mr. Hawley, jeweller, in the Strand, said, that on the evening of the 4th October, the prisoner tame no! Mr. Hawley s shop. and purchased a watch and appendages, which 'amounted to 441. and he paid for it with soven.igus. When be l l pilled oast bts money, he observed," I must take care of this large note." The witness inquired the amount of 11? and the prbotser re plied that it was a £3OO note, 'that it was ton much to carry about ' at night, and thik he would be glad if witness would take care of it for him until the morning. Witness consented and took his addres., William Parker, Frincesplaee, Kennington... Neat morning th 'prisoner called for his note, and observed, that be was going to see his father in Northumberland. and be selected a watch, clisin, l and seals, value about 83S. as a present to his sister,Cnd requested the witness to deduct it from the note. Witness asked the prisoner if he had any objection to accompany blnt en the !Link to get change ? 1 He answered none whatever, and away they went and gut four WI. notes, and one for 1001. The prisoner received the difference, after paying for his second purchase out of the tool. note, and requested the witness to take care of the 501. notes until he returned bunt the Country. Mr. Gates, the soliehor for the prosecution, sated he mild bring forward other evidence to prove, that the signature to the cheque was not in Mr. Sewell's handwriting. Vie prisoner was there fore rimanded, till Friday. It was understood the prinnier was formerly in Mr. Sewell's employ, al clerk. On Saturday morning, the prisoner presented J himself at Messrs. Flanbury's, and gave himself up as the utterer I •f the cheque, and he was immediately given Into the custody of Mr. Cope, the City Marshal. He seemed quite calm, and us,. mindful of the awful punishment that almost uniformly awaits such offenders, upon conviction. BOW-STREET. -- tin. a master bricklayer, residing in Fleet -street, appeared to answer the complaint of Mr. Harrison. a tobacconist at the cot- 1 nee of St. hlartin . s.court, Castle-street, Leicester fields _ It appeared from the statement of the complainant, that the de fondant. in descending from the outside of set age coach which stop. ped before complainant's shop, missed his footing, and reeling across the footpath, fell against the window, and broke a pane of glass. The defendant, in his defence, said he had come all the way front, Hounslow, on the outside at the coach. In the intense cold of Saturday night, without having had mare than a glass of brandy and water. Ile attributed the cause of the accident which had got ►im into this dilemma, to the ail having deprived him of the proper use of hie limbs, and thereby occasioned him to slip io getting off the coach. He then complained of the treatment he bad received. He said he was taken to the watchhouse and put in the cells, where he Seas kept until Sunday morning, although be gave the complainant his address, and offered to leave all the money (three shillings) he had about him. He obtained his liberty on Sunday morning by giving bail. In reply to the Magistrate, the complainant said, the expense of replacing the broken glass was its. 6d. and a further expense of Its. had been incurred, which he thought he ought trot to lose. Mr. Micas adjudged the defendant to pay 10s. 6d. and the de fendant, with great reluctance, paid it ; declaring, at the same time, that he would bring an action against the complainant for false 'lmprisonment. )IA RLBOTIOUG H-STREET. A man, named George Paget was charged on suspicion of baying committed a robbery on Friday last, in St. James s-street. The prisoner was observed among the crowd which was assembled at St. Jantees Palace on Friday, and one of the officers saw him drop a pocket-bunk ; he was taken into custody, and thirty pounds in notes and sovereigns, and also a gold watch were found upon hint. The owner of the pocket-hook, a Gentleman named Fell, of Wan stead, Sue:, came to the office yesterday, and identified the pocket book as his property; bnt no person attended to claim the other property, which the Magistrate ordered should be restored to the prisoner ist the course of a week, and be was committed for steal. ins the pocket-book. Two other persons, named 27senspaors and Drown, were also,, charged with surrounding several persons, and attempting to pick pockets. On Brown were found a gold watch and some sovereigns ; and on the other prisoner, were likewise found a watch and souse gold coin. They were co mmitted to the House of Correction as rogues and vagabonds. WORSHIP-STREST. Mr. Holden. of Great Cambridge-street, Hackney-road, who was charged with setting his house on fire on Senday. the 14th instant, as stated in a fernier Paper, was brought up for re-exa mination, when the evidence preponderated so strongly in his favour, added to the usesceprionahle character given him by Mr. Barton, of Cornhill, In whose employ be had been fourteen years, that the Magistrate expressed himself perfectly satisfied, and said Mr. Holden might depart without the slightest imputation on his character, in proof of w►ich the Agents of two Fire Offices de clared they were ready to erect assurance with him instantly. LAMBETH-STREET. Captain Power, of the Bth Battalion of the Royal Artillery, at present doing duty in the Tower, accompanied by Major Eirinron, the Resident Superintendent of. that fortress, carat to this Office, and stated, that for some time past the men had been making com plaints of the bread furnished them, both as to its quality and weight ; la consequence of which, be gave directions to the sergeant to have a portion of it weighed, which, nit being done, it was dis covered that out of the small number of fourteen loaves, the deft ciency amounted to no less than 61b.—The bread was here pro duced, and was apparently of a very inferior description. Mr. Weave, after referring to the Statute Book, said that he had no jurisdktitio, fur that the only Act which bad given him a power to inflict a penalty, namely, the Bakers' Act, expired two years since. Capt. Power, however, was not without a remedy, fur on commu nicating the circumstance to the Ordnance, that Department might proceed against the contractor, fur a breach of his engagements.

The field chosen was the wane in which Sampson and Hall ,fought ; the stake 501. the betting six to five on " glory" (Butler), who, though be has had less experience and success than " Bilstonk pride" (Burton), was conscious of victory from superior strength. Burton has won the last el in no les that nineteen successive battles. There was little or no variatisti in " rounds. Burton almost uniformly struck first; and after me or two attempts fur a second or third throw, dropped easi:y, shun , times without a blow. Four or fire rounds however, was regn lar slashers, partieutally front the eighteenth to the tvreskt}-tii.d. After the forty-fourth round, it became obvious that thato:i v.s overmatched. lie continued, however, by peppering Me aittAgnnist about the nob, gradually to change the aspect of the fight ; atttl the fifty-shrsts round was the favourite—he had closed Ilutkr's right eye, terribly disfigured his frontispiece, and, if he treld have put in two or three facers, he world certainly have won the both; hut the fortune of war was against bim, and it was decreed that the Manton hero should' snatch the har d-earned, and hitherto ut. tarnished laurels, fr in the brow of " lid/tun's Pride." In the drib round Airier, who had been making a 0 waiting race" of it, transmitted a smart 'lubber, which sent Burton rending; and the dose being repeated before he fell, with improved energy, a flew face was given to the affair. Burton, contrary to expe.t.r tion, came to the scratch again ; but his strength and his fist now totally failed him—it was like trying to crack a coctsamut with a sponge. His seconds, seeing that Butler was a complete corm°. rant,and would take a great deal inure than Burton was now attie to give, resigned the battle in the sixty-third round, though against the wink of their principal. It lasted one hour and minutes. Although beaten, Burton proved himself, for his weight and inches, quite as good a man as his opponent, who was at kart two inches tiller, and Apparently heavier.—The fight excited great in terest, and was very numerously attended.
