THE FEAST OF THE GRIDIRON. MR. CORBETT. Te!terday. a numerous party of Gentlemen (anseentins to up waists of 100) assembled at the London Tavern, Bishopegate street, to celebrate what Mr. Cobbett facetiously termed " The Feast of the Gridiron." At five o'clock Mr. Cobbett himself took the Chair, supported by Sir Thorns, Bervor and Mr. Wells, of Huntingdon. After the cloth was removed, - • 31r. Coeurr rose, and was received with loud cbeers.—He ad dressed the 'Meeting at considerable:lersetb, on the evils of what he termed the paper system. Whatever was gained by the paper money makers, somebody must lose--and dwelt at considerable length on the advantages of a metallic currency. After some fur ther observations, Mr. C. concluded by proposing as a toast, " The King; and may he exclusively once mere exercise the prerogative of staking money." " C.opeke nearly two hours. The nest toast was " The industrious and laborious people, and may their food and ralmeht not be taken-from them by.tho jugglery of paper money." The health. of Sir Themes Beevor,indseueral other Gentlemen were drank, and the company did net separate until a late hour. PAISLEY, Arm 4. At a meeting for the relief of unemployed weavers, Provost Farquharson stated, that the subscription al ready amounted to 8061. that Lord He'burn had sub scribed 100 guineas. Mr. W. Carlisle said, that the present distress was greater than anything similAr he ever saw in the town of Paisley. He knew of no place. • in the United Kingdom where the distress was so , great, unless it were in Spitalfields. Mr. William Boyd said, the sources of trade and commerce were cow-, pletely dried up. Mr. James Carlile saw no reason why things would not come round again, and, at all events, we ought to put our trust in PROVIDIDICZ, and, not make such a lamentation: The Rev. R. Burns read a document relative to the Savings Bank of the town. There had been 1801. less lodged than bad been drawn within the last five months, and he considered that that establishment bad been the cause of distributing about 110 Cd. within the above period. Three - boys, residing near Carriage bill (two of them natives of Glasgow) resolved omit late Bsnday to amuse themselves in exploring the Hurlet coal-pit. They de scended the stair-shank about twelve o'clock in the day, with a lighted lamp, which accident extinguished after they had advanced a considerable way into the pit.— Alarmed, and in darkness, they attempted to retrace their steps, but aster much laceration of hands and knees, in place of returning, their confusion led them farther on. Overarm with fatigue, they sat down in one of the caverns at midnight, and gave themselves up far lost. In the meantime, the colliers had been ap prised of the affair, and commencing a search, rescued them- from the perils of their black abode by four in the morning. The inquisitive youths had advanced more than a mile in their mineralogical researches. ANTIQUARIAN Thurschy afternoon, the workmen employed at the Auchinead Quarry, Innerkip road, lately Opened, dug out of a petrefaction of wood, imbedded five feet and a half deep in the body of a rock, a horse shoe, which, though in a mutilated state, may yet be deemed in good preservation, considering the immense time it must have lain deposited in the sttatum where it was found. It is apparently silver, or an alloy of precious metal, and appears to have been well executed. How long it may have remained there is extremely doubtful, but that it is of great antiquity is certain. Letters from Gibraltar of the 16th ult. contain little more than statements of the general dulness of trade, and the glutted state of the market from over arrivals of British goals. A sharp opposition has arisen in the Senate of the United States of North America, to the measure proposed by the Penmans in his message, of mending a Minister to attend the Spanish American Congress about to be assembled at Panama.— Mr. Rannocem,long a well•known Member of the House of Repre sentatives, and one of the Senate serving for Virginia, moved as a resolution on the Ist ult.--" That the Pension's of the Unitid States be requested to lay before the Senate such information as may be in the possession of the &scuds% teaching the principles and practice of the Spanish American States, or any of them, late Colonies et Old Spain, in regard to Negro Slavery." This resolution Was taken Into consideration on tke ud of March ; and the mover of it spoke at great length on behalf of his own proposition.— Front some of the* incidental observation of Mr. Itannoten, we learn that he Is itritated against the South American States for !wring abolished Negro Slavery, the continuance of which he, as an inhabitant of V . :reefs, considers essential to its prosperity.

Joshua Smith, a young Englishman, was indicted for stealing a gold watch, a coat and hat, the property of 1. Farrell. The prisoner came to lodge and board at Farrell's house; he remained there for thirteen weeks, made frequent promises, but paid. no money. He said, repeatedly, he should have plenty of money from Eng. land, and he wrote several letters to persons in Loudon, who, in fact, were never in exi.teace, with a view of lulling the suspicions of Farrell ; at length he escaped from the house by the chamber window, and took with him the property in question. The prisoner cross examined the witnesses with as much tact, and with as much power of face as any Lawyer at the Old Bailey could display : Prisoner—Where is Maynahans T Prosecutor—l ail sere I don't know.

A numerous body of the Shareholders of the above Company assembled yesterday, at the City of London Tavern, when a Mr. Vigors, one of the Shareholders, read to the Meeting a short account of ho!! he. under stood the funds of the Company were circumstanced. It appealed• the amount received as deposits on t3hares, by Messrs. Fry and Chapman, was 10,81Q1. and by Messrs. Spooner and Attwood 13,600/. - and that the Shares allotted to Direct -Ts, Auditors, and other officers, were to the value of 9,0001. It also appeared that there was 590/. worth not issued ; consequently the deposits were not paid on them, making in the whole 40,0004 The actual sum received from the public is 30,4101. Now, how does this sum seem to be accounted for ? At the Bankers there appears a balance of 691. 19s. and for the purchase of the College of Physicisns they were entitled to credit for 16,8031. Cs. Now, the Share. holders were anxious to ascertain what b came of 13,5961. 15s. that is. assuming that the purchase of the College of Phys'cians was made properly, and under correct delegated huthority. He (Mr. Vigors) consi. dered oue of the chief objects to which the attention of the Shareholders ought to be directed was, to inquire Low the 15,5961. 15s. had been expended. It was ra ther a novel circumstance in this concern, that instead of having a large balance to our credit, the concern was in debt 2,8921. 12s. 6d. and what formed a portion of that sum were the following extraordinary items:- 5151. to the builders. 100 guineas for plate, 201. 18s. to the clock•maker ; even the clerks'_salarres were not paid-1251. is claimed by them ; nor are the coals paid for, nnr the share books ; and yet there is due by the 30 Di.ectors the deposits on their Shares, which amount to 9,0001. However, he should not for the present couch upon the subject, as it would become a matter for future consideration. • A Suasistounta W i t:it whether, in the £ ll,OOO charged for the purchase of the of Physicians, the builder's present claim is included I—Mr. woes said, No. Mr. Vicsoita said, he carne to the Meeting as the representative of several Shareholders, who held several thousand Shares; and he thought the best that could be done was to appoint a Committee, to make arrange ments for the calling of i General Meeting of the Share holders, to see and prevail on the Directors to come forward, and give the Shareholders some account of what became of their property. Mr. irsooas was then visted . to the Chair, and a Rewinds= was passed,s giving notice of a Meeting to be convened fora future day.—Thanks were then voted to the Chairman, and the Meeting separated. It was stated at the Meeting, that John Smyth, Esq. M.P. bad declined acting u a Director, compequently he could not in any way be Identified with the concerns of the Company. Letters from Port-au-Prince of Stb of February, say that several rich inhabitants of that colony have offered to President Rotas to subscribe tke 120 millions st.ll re. mining to be paid to France, in order to participate hi the advantages which must accrue to the lenders.

" Well," said the Worthy Magistrate, " and what have Ito do with all this?

UNION HALL. tlasakaos or MOZlSlL—Yesterday this odic* was crowded to excess. in coosequence of the examination of a man named Amex Keaton, an Irish labourer, who was charged with having murder e d his wife. On being placed at the bar he did sot evince the slightest degree - of alarm. The facts of the case were these : Halsey. a night constable of St. George's, having received some information of the woman's death, went to the prisoner's residence in Unicorn-court, - Kent-street, cia Wednesday night about ten or eleven o'clock, where he found the prisoner smoking and drinking with several other prisons. In another room there were alstfut ten or a dozen men and women eensuldng together ; there was a bed in :he room on which the constable found the body of prisoner's wife, coveted over with a blanket. Halsey examined the body in the primmer's presence, and found that the deceased had received two desperate blows over the left temple, apparently by some blunt instrument, which had perforated the skull. She had also received a blow over the right temple, and on various parts of her body marks of violence appeared. There was blood flowing front her mouth, and dm body was quite cold. The prisoner said, she had received -she two blows on the left tees* by roiling out of bed and striking against the screws of the bedstead; but upon examining the bed stead, the constable found there were no screws against which she could have struck bee bead—neither could she have fallen out of bed, as described by the prisoner, it bang placed close against the will,. blaisey then took the prisoner into custody, and searched about dm place to discover the instrument with which the wounds had been inflicted, but without success. The prisoner was very anxious to address the- Magistrates, and although cautioned not to say any thing which might hereafter be used against hint, he proceeded to state, that on Tuesday his wife went over the water with a sailer to receive some prise money, and she came home intoxicated. The sailor *as a poor man, and was allowed to sleep in their room. In the morning she was very sick, which was produced by her having drunk se much the over night. He went of to the waterworks, and returned about ten o'clock. Ile then found his wife lying on the floor, with her head under the bedstead. She returned no answer to his inquiries, but foamed at the mouth, and vomited liquor. About a fortnight ago she had a fit, and fell out of bed, which Gm. sionsd the bruises on her body. —The Magistrate suggested the neces sity of searching for the weapon with which the wounds had been In flicted on the deceased's tempirs.—Maisey, however, thought that the wounds might have been caused by violent kicks, and on ex amining the prisoner's right shoe, he discovered two bob nails.witis the heads projecting out a considerable distance beyond the tom.— , Marks of blood were visible on the sole beyond those two nails. By the Magistrate's desire, Malley compared the two nails in the prisoner's shoe with the wounds on the deceased's temple, and he found that the distance between them exactly agreed ; and be alit said that they fitted into the wounds on the right and left temples. He added, that he was of opinion that the woman's, deeds wale occasioned by the kick from the shoe, the nails of which had pes¢ *rated the skull—The prisoner manifested no kind of vprehmeoo, and he was remanded for a further examination.
