AIRS. MATTOCKS. This actress, whose death we announced on Monday, was very popular in her day. Her en riden name was Hallam, and stfe was the daughter of Mr. Hallam, an actor, who, in an unfortunate dispute with Macklin, the celebrated Shylock, at a morning rehearsal, about so trifling a cause as a theatrics' dross, was,ao_jireldfailli wounded in the eye by the wa' . king stick of the latter,, that he died on the spot. Macklin was tried for the of fence at the Old Bailey, and acqoitted, as It was deemed the effett of sudden passion, not of malice prepense.— Miss Hallam, by the mother's side, was related to Mr. Beard, the chief singer of his time, and she came for ward on the theatrical boards with the reputation of high accomplishments. She soon distinguished herself as a very sprightly actress, while her contemporaries were Mrs. Green, (Sheridan's first Dttenna) Mrs. Abing ton, and ii Miss Hallam's earlier days even Mrs. Clive had not left the stage. But Misc Hallam was not only admired as an excellent comic actress, but as a singer - also. She was the first Louisa in the opera of The nnenna. Mr. hlattneks was, at the time of her first arpearance on the stage, a very handsome man, and a popular singer. They soon conceived an attachment to each, other, and a runaway marriage was the con sequience. As Mr. Mattocks, though a sensible and intelligent man, was not distinguished AS an actor, and as the•art of singing began rapidly to improve, the ma s of Covent Garden theatre did nut renew his en gagement. He removed to Liverpool, where he remain ed, we believe, to the close of his life, as the stage ma itaor of the theatre in that town. But a separation, - rendered necessary from motives of interest, as Mrs. Mattocks was secure of an engagement and had a large salary in London . , did hot, however, destroy the affec tion of the parties,and according to report Mrs. Mattocks liberally supplied a portion of her income to her husband. —Mrs. Mattocks was a spirited and good general actresi, but she could represent the higher characters of genteel comedy. In those of middle life, however, she acquitted herself very respectably. Lady Bell, in Know your own Mind, of which she was first representative, contributed to the success of -the comedy, which un luckily was brought forward just at the same time with, The School for Scandal, which produced such an effect as prevented the former comedy from reaching its doe popularity. Mr. Murphy, the author, had intended the part of Path 000 d for Woodward, and kept it back in hopes of the recovery of that excellent actor, who, however, soon after died, and the part was assigned to Lee Lewis. The part was avowedly intended to dra matise the facetious Sam Foote, many of whose bon mots were, by Mr. Murphy's acknowledgment, inter spersed through the character. Mrs. Mattocks intro. doted a pleasing song in the part of Lady Bell, which was much admired. Mrs. Mattocks occasionally at tempted tragedy, but with little success. She performed the second part in Hook's tragedy of Cyrus, but was lost in comparison with the fine figure And admired acting of Mrs. Yates in Mandane, the heroine of the play. Mrs. Mattocks's chief merit was in Abigail:, Citizens' Wives, and in the delivery of the ludicrous Epilogues of the late Mr. Miles Peter Andrews, which always required dashing spirit and the imitation bf vulgar manners. She possessed what is technically styled a good stage face. It was much pock-fretted, but that was not observable on the stage. She was , an actress that always displayed good sense, and a just e conception of the characters assigned to her, when they exactly suited her abilities. Mrs. Mattocks was agree able and intelligent in conversation. She has left one daughter, who was married to a barrister; he iived only a few years after the union, and left an amiable widow to a very affectionate mother: The English Opera House will open with Tartars and Free and Easy. Tne establishment of a Branch Bank at Gloucester was last week finally determined upon by the Directors of the Bank of England. The sum expended at Maldon Election is variously estimated at from 30 to 50,000 i. Eighteen hundred freemen were newly admitted, and 3,100 polled. The domestic calamities of the Noble House of In gestre have been augmented by the receipt of distressing intelligence from Cologne. The Hon. Aarntra TALBOT had reached, that place on his way to Vienna, where be was hastening to attend the corpse of his Noble Brother to the grave, when he became the subject of a violent attack of scarlet fever, which placed his own life in considerable jeopardy. Earl TALBOT. on receiving the melancholy information, set off for Cologne; but, we are happj to add, that he bad not proceeded far on his journey, before he was met by a messenger, with the welcome news that his son out of danger. Thursday last, a wag entered the bowling-green at Boston. and seeing a very large company assembled to witness the decision of an important game between a Manchester Gentleman and one from Derbyshire, formed the plan of dismissing the company in quick time. He therefore threw a brick-bat against a bee hive; iastaxter, a reconnoitering party appeared. and soon afterwards about a thousand bees, in stinging attitude. assailed the company. Truly laughable was the scene which ensued ; many a stout hearted bowler made his retreat from the green, grievously stun.; about the eyes and face, whilst others were s en fencing with the angry enemy, and waving their hats, not in token of applau e, but as a symbol of hostility. About eleven Gentlemen were severely stung, and others running to the neigh bouring inns, spread the intelligence of this bee warfare. At the Sun Inn, the ostler gave the alarm, that a horse was very ill, probably from drinking cold water when heated; the animal was kicking and plunging in a fear ful manner. At length it was found out that about twenty of the exasperated bees had fixed upon his flank. It Was upwards of two bouts before the alarm had sub sided, and the skirmish between the bees and the bowlers afforded conversation and matter of laughter to the thousands assembled on the race course. SINGULAR ACCIDENT.—Monday, a fine high-spirited horse, the property of Mr. T. Packer, of Shutonger, yea. Tewkesbury, contrived to get out of the stable by unfastening the latch of the door with his nose, and • immediately started off with great velocity. The ani real gall.pped in the direction of a large pear tree in an adjoining paddeck, and so great was the speed with • Lich it was impelled, that it was unable to avoid the obstruction. and ran against the tree with such terrific violence. that its head was literally dashed to atoms and its neck broken. The force with which it came in . !MLitt may likewise be judged from the circumstance that the trunk of the tree, for the space of several feet. was completely divested of its bark, more than two irici es thick. The shock made the poor animal recoil 'brut five yards from the tree. where it dropped dead withoot tre :tightest struggle. t 1 1 il .1 il .. 1,1; . , ' ... pi t ,1 $lll t t - gi b t_9 ( o oll . . Further Partieslas, in addled lOUs* given yesterday. Bognor has of late r like so Minty other places on the seacoast, acquired some celebrity as a bathing phice ; and, being situated in the midst of a country which is fertile down to the very sea, is deserving of its reputa tion.. At this place, a fi re broke out on Monday, the - 2hTfiiiistaitt, about nooti. — It-began in the hotel, at the 'top of the house, and it is supposed cohere been caused by-the -kitchen fire ;at least, that was very large at the time, as sinner was cooking for some of the Sussex freeholders; wholtad'come thereby water, on their way to Chichester. The flames soon extended to every part of the building, as well as to the adjoining stables, and several neighbouring cottages and houses. Expresses were dispatched immediately to Chichester for assist• ance, and engines were sent off the instant they brought the unwelcome news. The fire was distinctly tem from the latter place, though eight miles distant from Bog nor. The day was uncommonly warm, with a fresh breeze from the south east, which drove the smoke along (per the plain, somewhat towaris the spectator at Chichester, who saw the dark line, appearing to ex:-. tend in length equal to the whole dist.ince from Bognor to where he was standing. Its vicinity to the sea, and the exertions of the inhabitants, aided by the m-n be longinglo the Preventive Service in the neighbourhood, and by the Scotch Fusileers, quartered at Bognor, suc ceeded about seven o'clock in checking the flames; but! they were not then extinguished. The hotel is entirely destroyed, together with three lodging-houses and ele- . , Ten cottages. It has not yet been ascertained how or where the fire broke out, and the time when it was dis covered, enabled the proprietor of the hotel to remove his furniture and stock born the premises. Wine, ale, and cider, were carried with other things out to the adjoining meadows; and some merry fellows, in true electioseering spirit, drank a cheerful glass at their neighbour's fire side. The proprietor of the hotel had, it is said, his premises insured ; bat some of the adjoin ing houses were not so, and their owners must have suffered severely. Thursday Mr. SACKVILLZ and Lady CHAILOTTI LAY; Fax arrived at Brarribitin Park, Yorkshire, having been nsar riedtho day beto!e at St. Georges Church, in London. - . A most splendid dinner was given, at Bath,' to General PALMER, and the twelve Gen tlemen of the Corporation of that city, who voted for him at the late election. Neatly 250 individuals of the first rank and character in Bath were present upon this occasion, and the zeal, unanimity, and enthusiasm, which marked the day, gave to the meeting rather the appearance of ce lebrating a triumph, than of paying a compliment of respect and esteem to an unsuccessful candidate. Our readers are aware- that a man of the name of Joseph Macwilliam was lit ly burnt to death, in Rose -street, Edinburgh. This wretched being denied himself every comfort and convenience of life—not a; bed, chair, or table, was in this hovel. ...Aftbr the acci dent the place was searched, when there Mere found bankers' receipts for the enormous sum of 14991.155.10 d. besides the title deeds of household property exceeding. MM. in value. Mr. Cowie, hair dresser, who lives immediately above Mace/Miam': house, has observed that the miser wore the same outer garments for up wards of 15 years. How this wretched bring had ac cumulated so much property (nearly 3,0001) has not yet been satisfactorily explained.-scotemen.

These three Gentlemen had been missionaries in that unhealthy country upwards of six years; and on arriving at Maryport, set off im-1 mediately to London with dispatches to the Society. Two recent travellers in Africa coming to a large and unheard-of lake, the one insisted upon christening it Lake Waterloo, the other Lake Trafalgar; while, to accommodate the views of both panics, a companion proposed that irbe called " The United Service Lake." Yesterday morning,John Witt, convicted on Tuesday at the Old Bailey, for an attempt to bleak" into the house of Mr. Moon, in Holborn, underwent a severe public whipping in the Old Bailey; in addition he has got two years' imprisonment and hard tabour.

Medical aid was sent for, but before the surgeon arrived the vital spark of life had fled. A Gentleman, who saw the accident, was so terrified as to he immediately put to bed at Mr. Gillmore's, the sign of the Roebuck, in Union-sttees, where the accident happened. Sir JOHN SINCLAIR strongly recommends the use of oil as a manure, having seen excellent effects resulting from it on the Continent, and in some recent experi ments in this country: It is applied in the proportion of two gallons of co arse whale oil to 20 bushels of ashes.

Yesterday, at two o'clock, the northern part of the me tropolis was visited by the most tremendous hail storm (accompanied by thunder and lightning) that has been known for many years. Its principal affect has been most lamentably felt in the neighbourhood of the New Road, Edgware Road, Lisson Grove, Alpha Cottages, and their vicinity, where it has done enormous damage. Mr. Jenkins, the eminent nurseryman, has property de stroyed to the amount of at least 5001. Another large nurseryman, whose plants and glasses were more ex posed, has suffered to the amount of 20001. The New Panorama, now erecting in the Regent's Park, has re ceived considerable damage, although precautions were taken by placing wire netting over the sky lights. The house of Mr. Wellesley Pole has also received consider. able damage, the windows in the front having been completely beaten in. The stained glass windows of a costly conservatory in Harley-place, are all shattered to pieces. Some of the hail stones measured three inches and a half to four inches in circumference. Yesterday afternoon, a most extraordinary scene of confusion and alarm was excited at thePolice-office,High street, Mary-la-bonne. by the sudden and 'violent hail storm which did considerable damage in the neighbour. hood. Mr. Rawlinson, the Magistrate, was attending to a case, when his attention was attracted by a sudden noise, as if a volley of pebbles had been thrown on the skylight immediately over the office, and he scarcely had time to make the inquiry whether it was raining" when the sky-light, which is exceedingly spacious, was broken in various places by the tremendous force of the hail stones, and in a moment afterwards Lord Montford, Mr Hoskins, and Mr. Rawlinson, who were on the Bench, were surrounded by the fragments of glass, Aid hail-stones not less than an inch in circumference, Which rendered it necessary for them to make a preci pitate retront \ from their seats, and make their way to the passage leading to the front of the office in High. street. There they were placed in as dangerous a situa• tion, and an immense sky-light over the passage shared the same fate as that in the public office; and while passing through it with speed, large pieces of glass and hail-stones struck against them with great force, and mita injury was anticipated ; they, however, escaped to the II ont door, where they remained until the vio lence of the storm was over, when they returned into the office, which was completely bestrewed with pieces of glass and hail-stones. During the above period, the indtvidoals in the body of the office were in the utmost confusion, and squeezed themselves into every corner, in order to avoid the glass which was flying in every direction while the storm lasted. At its conclusion the Magistrates resumed their labours, and we are happy to say that no further accident occurred. At Hamp stead, we understand, the hail-storm did very extensive injury, particularly to the green-houses, in many of which not a single pane of glass has been left entire ? Tuesday afternoon, between three and four o'clock, a most tremendous hail storm •isited the sown of Sr. Alban's. Pieces of ice, three inches in circumference, fell, and broke the windows of many houses. Une per son has sustained a loss to the amount, it is said of 1001. by this occurrence. The windows of the New Inn, which was open two or three days ago on the New Cut, were all more or less broken. The . corn in the neighbourhood was beaten down, and considerable damage was done to thigardens. A good deal of rain fell several miles on each side of Sr. Alban's, but there was no hail except at that place. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. There being an intention on the part of the masters of a number of trades in the Qty to redacts the wages of their journeymen, dis rarbances are anticipated, and to one er two caw have taken place. Yesterday two journeymen corihmatere were brought before the LOU, Moron, on a chargeof basing ilfirgally threatened and endea voured to intimidate two werkawooda ►ad refused to join a com bination to whisk the tiolesdnate bollard. From the Mika.s at Ikbard MN, and another journeyman, In the employ of Mr. Bucknell, a earl-cutter, it appeared that the mas ters had found it expedient to reduce the wages, and announced their intention to the men, who took a week's time to consider of it. They ultimately refused to accept the wages offered, and the great body of them turned out. The two complainants agreed to go with the other men, with'the proviso that their families meld in the mean time be supported; but finding that this could not be done, they went to their work at the reduced wages. The conse quence was, that they were beset at the workshop by a mob of nearly 100 workmen, and received dreadful abuse and threats from the two prisoners. One of the prisoners in his defence declared, that now the prices of provisions were increased, the masters wished to reduce their wages. He spoke with great energy on this point, and stated, a living could not be got at their reduced wages. His fellow workman and prisoner could earn no more than 52,. or 16s. per week at it. Mr. Bucknell declared, that the masters had only reduced the wages of the workmen because they were driven to do so by the circumstances.of the trade. The pri so n e r, who w a s a droitly p ut forward as a specimen of the condition of the workmen, was an ex ception. They might by common skill obtain 30s. per week at the reduced wages, aid he had some in his shop who could earn upward& of £2 per week. Several masters corroborated this statement. The Lux* blavos said, that the lame. were never more fisout• able to the journeymen than at present; Aol he fur n e mons that they were not more tavuut uu4tv to It was but just that they should be allowed to di -1 fo e Of bout, which was their property, in the best matinee they They might make any agreements among thettlielVeS, as to th e they thought proper to take; but they must not he allowed r u u 4: late with impunity the right ambers in the Same free ditpo„l ui their property. Here the journeymen bad the least tier to plain of their masters, as they might more easily than any uttur class of workmen set up for themselves if exorbitant profits were d e . rived from the sale of their labour. Hii Lord , thip (with whom set Mr. A:derman Kt') sentenced the prisoners to be coahned one month each to hard labour in F t House of Correction, and declared his Intention to increase. the punishment on each case that might fur the future be brought p t . fore hint. BOW•STRSET. Yesterday, James W'nt. Lack, a man about thirty years Or Is, , who had lost an arm, as It was said, in one of the Peninsula A.m..% was brought before Mr. Missauu., charged under Lem] 2.ttai. mammies Act, with cutting and maiming John Brookes, with at. tent to do him some grievous bodily harm. The Surgeon who dressed the wooed said it was eutaiuly flitted with a situp instrument, anal that if the blow had taken br a upon the part to which it appeared to have been directed, deutt must almost inevitably Lave ensued. The prisoner did not attempt to deny the charge, and said I, hoped the erect of it would be to send him oat of the world, fur he was sick of his life. Mr. Mix.nuex ordered the orisonet to be committ e d, an d d , reefed the gaolers (Ford and Jones) to keep a sharp tth quo his conduct so long as be should remain in their custody. The prisoner was removed from the bar, declaring his inr cut to destroy himself, if possible. His wife was present, with a claw in her arias, and seemed deeply affected. UNION HALL.

I ran down stairs without dressing, as provided myself with a knife to cut the halters of the cows, 17 of whom were in a cow-house, the roof of which seemed on the very point of falling. I however, rushed in, and naked as I w as , i n a few minutes I bad cut the halters of IS of them: the other two could not be sekseed, and perished in the Bones. la a minute after I had left the sow-hove the roof fell in, and I war r) ex hausted by such violent exertion, and the born, on my naked feet and legs, that I dropped motionless in the yard, and my eyes have not, at this moment, recovered from the effects of the b re .

In the barn there w as the wool of sheep, and timber to the value of 300 i. none of which rah insured. Mrs. Martin—The prisoner is my servant; en Sunday week she asked for leave to goto a wedding, which I granted ; but Instead of returning that night, she did not come home till between three and, four o'clock on Monday afternoon ' • she then appeared to barn been drinking; I remonstrated with her, and she told me that it was the last time she would serve me so, as eh* meant to leave me.— She seemed very much erected, and sat down and cried. I took her hand, and persuaded her to reform, but she assured me she never could. She asked me for some beer, which I got for her. I ad vised her to lay down on the bed up stairs, and I would come up and talk whit her. She went up stairs, but came down shortly afterwards, with some caps in her hand, which she showed me. I I said I was not afraid of her robbing me. I thought her the greatest enemy to herself. She told me that she had lost her old man, and now she did not value her own life. She asked me for one shilling, and mid it was the last she would ever ask me f.ir. I gave her one, and again advised her to behave better. In patting she shook hands with me several times, and said, " GOD bless you, mistress, you are too good." I cautioned her not to get into any harm; she replied, " You . are sure when I leave you I shall do nos good," and, lifting her hand, she said,. 'A This night by this 1 eitiur rise or fall." As she went from the door I said, " Lydia, think on what you do." She replied," I never think ; what Ide is dcne in a moment; as I make my bed so I must lie."—These were the 1.4 words I heard her utter. She had often stopped out in the stint way before, and had been guilty of many other irregularities; but she had always shown so violent a disposition, that I feared, if I discharged her, she would do some injury to the family. tine bad lived with me sixteen months; she came to me from Dr. Gardner, whn took her into his service on her being discharged from tae tread-milL The Constable who took bet deposed that she was then drunk. As there was no evidence which could bring the crime Imam to the prisoner. she was discharged. MARY LA-BONNE. Yesterday, Wawa Butcher, the driver of one of the Paddink ton stage coaches, was ordered to find bail fur assaulting dui abusing Captain Dalrymple. in the course of a di4pute which aru.e between another of the fraternity of the Whip and the Captain. Mr. John Cbartwood, of Seymour place. Bryan tone squire, applied so Med flaswwwson for advice under the following circum stances. He stated that a lady of fashionable appearance had taken elegantly.furnished apartments in his house about three years since. His boost became remarked, and so obnoxious that he was threat ened by a respectable solicitor with an indictment for a nui.ancr, unless he should get rid of his lodger. He gave her notice to quit in (=sequence; but she had set him at defiance, and said she would remain as long as she pleased. Mr. Rawuxson said he could not interfere between Mr. Chat-- wood and his lodger, but would advise him to get possession of his lodgings as •soon as pnasitik.
