A variety of accounts relative to that most mogul& tent National Establishment, Greenwich Hospital, bairn bee► published by order of the House of Commons. It may not be uninteresting to our Readers to learn some - of the particulars given in these Returns: This fine Asylum for our worn out Officers and men of the 'Royal Navy, has, upon its in-door entablisinient, 100 Officers; Chas, and other persons in civil departmeou ; 1,710 Pensioners:and 116 Nurses.

The care which this country takes of het worn-out seamen and soldiers is one of the most honourable fea tures in her history, and the immense expense which she incurs for this btneselent, but just purpose, ought to be known,not only yithin-het own territoriesibnt throughout the nations of the world, to whom it may be at once a proof of her power and justice, and an example for their imitation. WEATHER ON RIE CONTINENT. li A MIIII fiG 11, it:LT Y. We learn from Sweden that the fire in the woods in that kingdom, which have been greatly promoted by att unexampled drought of six or seven weeks'duration, 'has been lately checked by very great exertions. In two places the fire has destroyed the forests to the extent nine miles. At the end of June the atmosphere at cock. holm was obscored by the smoke, and fears wets en teitained for the safety of the neighbouring places. The accounts from London of the effects of the drought on the corn and fruits are very melancholy ; *lose from Norway and Denmark are but little better. While the North of Europe is thus distressed for want ‘• of rain, it has been so abundant and continual in Hun gary. it the latter part of Jui.e, that the rivers have ove flowed their banks, and the Danube has done con- datnageneari'resbuigh. Much rain also fell --et the same time in the mountains of Silesia, and on the 26th the Oder had risen very much at Breslau, but - it was beginning to fall again. rtsTIVITIES AT SToWe ---ThorsdAy. the weather being most auspicloos, Buckinghim was thronged at an early hour in the morning with parties proceeding to &owe Park, to enjoy the amusements of the day. On the ground, the Course was lined with the fair sex in their gayest attire.

DUMFaIES, JUL? 11. - Since Tuesday last 'we have been blest, if not with abtandance, at least with such a quanti7y of rain as has tended to tevive the languid powers of vegetation, and to inspire with better hopes the minds of all classes , throughout the country. From the observation, as well as report, we are in• dined, now that rain has come, to believe that the con• quences of the drought will not be so fatal as was at one time anticipated. The high temperature of our client, for some time past cannot be better 'hewn than by the following singular circumstance :—A short while an Mrs. Gordon, Isle of Whithorn,-chanced to have ch 4, engaged in the process of incubation s upon a good 1p, 4 "nest" of eggs, by the side of a small burn, aying removed th e same to a place nearer home,the duck,. offended at such liberty, revenged herself brieturning to. the burn, and caring no more about the mitten,. In this emergency, Mrs. Gordon, having no doubt !wird of crocodiles' eggs being hatched by the sun, and chickens brought forth by means of warm ovens in'. Egypt, placed over the nest a large slate, and left thetreasure - beneath it to the will of fortune. In the space of five days "Dan Phobos," who had kindly taken the case under his consideration, gave to the world a lively Hide] duckling for every egg ; and the recreant mother, on being brought back to her legitimate offspring, readily adop:ed the whole, and waddled off with them to thej burn, where they now live and rejoice in the beams of their great foster•father. Wednesday, as William Armstrong, csittle•deater, Penpont, was on his way to Du n& ies maiket, for the. purpose of disposing oft three-years-old colt, and while another person and he were riding nigher in a cut, near Portrack, the latter inadvertently had the halter of the colt, which was walking behind, eritwiple.stmong his-fingers. Owing to the trivial circumssarke of a Iran going past with a heel-barrow, the animal became so affrighted, and (as he was unable to extricatehis fingers from the rope), pulled with such vehemence, that two of his fingers were actually drawn off, ands hanging, as it were, by a single thread.

GREENOCK, Juhlr 8. —sass— Yesterday our summer fair commenced ; k is not so weft at tended as on some former °economic The proportions of perfor mers to spectators,was very large ; and we know not that we ever before saw at, great a multiunit of exceedingly small fiddlers, and exceedingly large pipers, joiatpockets, &king does, beefeaters, no-goes and little-goes, wheels of fortune, and' ether auxiliaries of our annual Saturnalia: There a flaring diklplay of sheaving at the Rat end of the town , but we can only speak as to the wild beast . exhibitions', one of which, in the Dptch use, represents a Daniel in the Lion't den, as a very respectable Gestieman with long blue coat, topped boots, and a large bunch of seals to his watch ! The discipline bow introduced in our Bridewell, has, we under stand, proved exceedingly obnoxious to .its inmates, and on Wed nesday morning they broke into open revolt against the new keeper, he having deprived some of them of their breakfast, in consequence of persisting in holding conversation from the windows of the cells with their woe thins associates at large, who assembled around the walls, and night and day kept up the most offensive clamour, to the annoyance of the whole neighbourhood. Hating no means, however, of retaliating, they wrbaked their senselesp vengeance in the dishes in which their food is usually served, nch they bat tared in pieces. The Bridewell is at present very full; but the firmness of the keeper, together with hard labour and solitary eon finentent, which Ire now to be strictly observed when the sentence of the Magistrate enjoins it, will speedily tender the 'beet turbu lent quiet, and cause the Bridewell to be looked upon as apiece of punishment, instead of a house where gratuitous board and 1. ing were to be had, with the meth drawback of temporary durance. A merchant lately visited a manufacturing to*n in the wed of England for the purpose . p&giving large orders for woollens of coarse fabric, for wiliChle offered to pay by bills on London at three klaye sight. He found no manufacturer willing to execute his order, except at prices so high as would have defeated his object. The great majority of the trade were unable to undertake them, through the want of assistance from the local bankers, who found it useless to issue notes which were immediately returned upon them to be ex changed for sovereigns. All the property of the manu facturers lay in houses, or machinery, or goods, of ample value in themselves in ordinary times, but now they could not raise sufficient funds to pay their work men on such security. A few individuals who had capital at command were ready to furnish goods; hilt, desirous of reaping the full advantage that command of capital gave them, when all around them were dis abled, resigned prices ruinously high to the merchant, who consequently abandoned the transactions altogether. New ALIEN REGULATION BILLAS many doubts 'have been entertained with regard to the interpretation of the new Alien Regulation Mil; it will be acceptable to foreigners to know, that upon the third reading of that Rifi on the sth of May last, in answer to a question, from Mr. HUDSON GURNEY concerning the wording of the clause, calling for the intended, as well as actual, residence of aliens, Mr. Pau. was understood to have distinctly stated, that fa nothing was meant.to be en forced, but that they should report themselves once in six months from the places where they then were; end thafthose who were merely travelling in the Aouptry might so return themselves."

He had, he said, observed hi /be Tholes newspaper of that day a letter signed by Mr. Chambeelbs, 'alluding to a statement which had been nude by in .Haft of , Lord Erskine at the Mansion-house; and as she eamildiss of the unfortunate Lady was truly deserving of compassion, If a jutigtoest were to be formed from her appearance, and from the hutabla aasd 'firattiet tone in which she expressed herself:Fres finding that her r•eldhplaint was not likely to bi'neglected, it was desirable that it bbeuld be immediately ascertained whether there was any fund won which she had positively a claim. Mr. Chamberlain said he had been led to offer hie services to Lady Erskine as a medium through which she might receive the amount of any pension or claim, merely from compassionate rootivre L . He bad heard some tins ' e ago that she was in great dis tress; aid s her case was no common one, he readily undertook to 1114) her all the service in his power.

It is, however, necessary tho t should distinctly explain the nature of the grant that has hem made ; and the conditions upon which it Was committed to our minagement. It will appear from Mr. Herries's letter to your Ladyship, that no pension was granted to yew; thus his Majesty had been pleased no extend his bounty in consideratioo of the painful situation in which you were left, by giving one sinus of 3001. to Lord Duncannon and sue, as joint trustees, to your Ladyship's use; and 2001. nuwe for thk i occasional assistance of such pares of Lord Ers kines family as wig's appear to us most to require it.

Mr. Chamberlin admitted that it bad not; and produced an ae count, from which it appeared that the widow bad been for some time receiving no more than 12s. a week, and that the last sum she bad received was 93. for her week's supply. The Loan Maroa.—She ought surely to have tecelved the miss• nib!, pittance of 16.. a week. No pan of that ought, at all events, to have been withheld from her.

I paid it according to my instructions. I was aware how trifling the sum was, but it was not to be expected that I was to make it greater out of my own pocket. The Loan Marna.—Certainly not. Mr. Chamberlin.—She seemed to be in a desolate state: The person who used to pay the m • before I volunteered got tired of the business, was annoyed, and dolled it.

The accused had been glees into the charge of a constable, who brought her to this dice. She denied that she 'had knocked more than once at the door, and she had restaly gone foe what she conceived to be her legal right. From tor statement it appeared that many years ago she went to live with Lieutenant- General Brown, andat his request she paned by the name of Greer. For twenty years the had the manageount of his domestic affairs, and had a child by him. She produced a book of accounts which sbeltad kept of the family disbursements. The General died is May last, and previous to his death he had always promised to settle *pow her 50f. per year, for her nfr. Before he died he wrote on one of the leaves or the account book, that whisk had induced her to apply to Mrs. Knox. She pointed out the writing to Mt.
