POETRY. -....,- THE JEW BEGINNING THE WORLD AGAIN. FROM THE MIRROR. Two criminals, a Christian and a Jew, Who'd been to honest feelings rather callous, 'Were, on a platform, once expos'd to view, Or come, as some folks call it, to the gallows; `Or, as late, a quainter phrase prevails. To weigh their weight upon the City scales. In dreadful form the constables and abrieve, The priest, and ordinary, and crowd attended, Till liz'd the noose, and all bad taken leave, When the poor trembling Israelite, befriended, Heard, by express, from officer of state, A gracious pardon quite reverw his fate. 4.7nmov'd be seem'd, and to the spol , close stiating, Neer offers, though he's bid,'to quit the place, Till, in the air, the other fellow ticking; The sheriff thought that some peculiar grace, 'Some Hebrew form of silent, deep devotion, Had, for awhile, deprived him of his motion. .But, being tptestion'd by the sheriff's orders, Why not with proper officer retiring? ••• Tn tone of voice he MI the mar•'llous borders, While that his looks were on the beam aspiring, 41 I only vait," said he, " pefore I ems, 0, Mister Ketch, to prey le led meen's clothes !" HINTS FOIL AMELIORATING THE SITUATION OF ;MILITIA OFFICERS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR. Sta,—lt having been represented that the Com. anander-in:Chief has under consideration various im provements relative to Officers of the Line, permit me, through your valuable Sournal, to draw attention to the Militia ; to which I am induced, by a long and practical knowledge thereon, supported by the most enlightened opinions. The increasing deficiency of C iptains during the periods of training, is muck to be, lurnentedi all I presume is, its partial amendment, so as slightly as possible to trespass upon the laws, or pa tronage of 14 , 4(1-Lieutenants. The difficulty during the war to obtain qualified Gentlemen for Companies, produced a deviation and precedent for its further ame. boration, by permitting subalterns under 60 years of age. 21 years standing and serving in the war, to bel eligible for that rank, without a for feitare of the peace allowance, upon the approval of Lord-Lieutenants, &c. Soch a - popular and beneficial measure would promote muritmilus Officers to the vacant Companies, liable to be filled by multi ilified and undisciplined civilians, and secinding the anomaly of precluding promotion, how.' ever desirable. A considerable improvement would arise by granting the brevet rank of Captain to senior Lieutenants holding no other regimental appointment; and if of 421 years standing, and serving in the war, an increased shilling per day disembodied allowance, with sixpence ditto upon actual service; and to all others of a similar standing and service sixpence per diem when unemployed which would not amount to 30001 per annum, and that, too, progressively decreasing clutirg peace; amply repaid by the encourage ment to Officers retaining and deserving rank. An essential subject appears omitted, that of the ad vanced age and infirmities of subalterns incapacitated from service, thereby adding to the duties of others, and c•ippling the efficiency of the corps, from their being unable to retire without a forfeiture of the militia al lowance; a clause might be enacted, limiting the same to sixty years of age, or under twenty-one years stand ibg and set ving in the war ; supported by certificates froM Colonels and the Medical Staff: this would be unattended with expense and very advantageous, by the appointment of efficient Officers in their places, added to the responsibility taken from the regimental authorities, who ate now, from motives of humanity, in duced to retut n them upon the sick list, instead of unfit for service. to pet niit exchange through the recommendation-0C Colobels, and concurrence of Lord-Lieutenants, would he highly telieficial, by promoting the . residence of Gentlemen in their own co..nties, or where their families or interests are located, instead of living in direct oppo lite parts of the Biitish Isles; highly' disadvantageous for any emergency for assembly, and , increasing the attendance of Officers during the training ; by remov ing any interevt, in obtaining leave from sickness or othei wise; to save travelling expenses to great dis tances ; it would also contribute to as unanimity of corps, and benefit the revenue by Commission Stamps. Other arguments might be adduced, but I esteem them too obvious and sufficiently appreciated to render their introduction essential. I remain, Sir, respectfully, your very obedient servant, Southampton. II ENERICUS S--. FrANKIFORT, NOV. s.—His Majesty the King of N'ituaransvacn, has convoked the Legislative Assembly of Ma king dom. for the 29th November next.. sionday, about twelve, Mss Bourke, eldest daughter of the Hon. and Right Rev. Dr. Bourke, was going out to tide, but waiting a few moments at the palace gate for her father, her horse became impatient, upon which, Miss Bourke drawing the reins too tight, the horse reared so high and so erect, that it fell directly back, and, but for the hook ut the saddle, which kept the horse's back off the ground, it is supposed that the Lady could not have escaped being crushed to death. In the the horw's head came against the wall of the church, and in getting up, tore away Miss Bout ke's veil; but we are happy to state, the Lady was taken up completely unhurt. Altogether, there never was a greater escape.—Weierforal Chronicle. DIt'sTRUCTIEZ Flaa.—A fire broke out .yesterday morning, about three o'clock, at the St. George's C. ffee. rooms, Blackman-street, in the Borough. The inmates escaped over tie roof; but a young woman havifig lost her hold fell into the street, and was Wien much injured to the Hospital. The house of Mr. White, a glover, next caught fire, for although many engines had arrived, it was an immense time before any water could be pro. cu►e:l. Three 'lncises were entirely burnt down, and ~ever al others considerably injured. At half-past six the flames were entirely subdued. HANDEL'S early Oratorios were but thinly arended. 'This great composer would, however, often joke upon the emptiness of the house, which he said, u would make de moosic sound all de petter."—Mirror. .

" Go up to the mountain andlbring wood, and build the house ; and I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified, saith the Lotto." The collection at the doors amounted to 431. 12s. 3J. Two YOUNG HERMITS.—A boy about twelve years of age, belonging to most respectable parents at N rrth Shields, was. during the summer, taken to Gilsland Wells by a near relation. The scenery pleased his youthful imagination to such a degree, that be formed the roman tic notion of making a plantation in that neighbourhood the place of his residence for life, where he designed to build a but to screen him from the winter's blast. ai his return home he used every endeavour to raise mo ney, in which he in some degree succeeded. His next care was to select a brother hermit to accompany him, and he at last found a schoolfellow, rather younger, who appeals to have been as romantic as himself. These two worthies last lactic, after packing up their ward robes, and securing a pistol, powder, and shot, to fur nish themselves with game, actually set out on their pilgrimage, and were some miles west of H,shain be fore one of the persons employed to reek the fugitives overtook arid brought them back. HOLMAN, whilst performing the part of Romeo, was se . zed with an involuntary fit of laughter, which sub jected him to the severe rebuke of his auditors. It hap pened in the scene of Romeo and the Apothecary, who, going for the phial of poison, found it broken ; not to detain the scene, he snatched, in a hurry. a pot of soft pomatum. Horawati was no sooner presented with it, than be fell into a convulsive fit of laughter ; but being soars recalled to a sense of duty by the audience, he made the following whimsical apology ;--'s Ladies and Gentlemen—l could not resist the idea that struck me, when the pot of pomatum, instead of phial of poi ton, was presented. Had he, at the same time, given me a tea spoon, it would not have been so improper, for the poison might have been made up as a lenitive electuary; but if you please, Ladies and Gentlemen, we will begin the scene again, without laughing." AURORA BORRALlS.—According to Crantz, the Greenlanders hold the northern lights for a game of tennis, or for a dance of departed souls; and this opinion is not a whit more irrational than the superstition of the Oriental nations, the Greeks and Romans, and all the unenlightened people of the middle ages, who, in the aurora borealis, and other fiery meterors, saw fight ing armies, flaming swords, chariots and spears, battles and blood, and even thought that they heard the clash ing of arms, and the sound of martial music. In the rainbow, the ancient inhabitants of the north discovered a bridge from earth to heaven, and called it the bridge of the gods, which was watched by a dog, whom no ' art could elude, and whose auditory faculty was such, that he could hear grass grow, or the wool on the sheep's back; the Kamschatkadales make of it a new garment f, r their aerial spirit, edged with fringes of red-coloured seal-skin, and leather thongs of various gaudy dies. •HATTON-GARDEN-THIS DAY. FAVIr Parrewces.—A genteel looking female, was charged with defrauding several tradespeople in the neighbourhood of Battle Bridge, of divers articles of provision, under the false pretence that they were for her master, a Mr. W..Jenkteis, residing on Flack Terrace. Somers Town. Mr Jenkins stated that the prisoner, a fee► month, ago, lived with hint as a matinee (he being in ?bat business), but through her negligence he discharged her from her situation; and on Saturday last be learned that she had been amongst his tradespeople with whom he dealt, and had fraudulently obtained large quantities of provisions, such as tea and sugar, bread and lour, butter, beef, and meat of every description, stating that she had been sent by him, and that the articles were for the consumption of his family. A plan was laid to detect her, and in which be succeeded on Saturday. when a quantity of lump sugar, which she had just obtained from a grocer's in his name, was found upon her. Several shopkeepers proved the case against the prisoner, and a little girl came forward and proved that she went on one occasion, by order of the prisoner, for a quantity of lour in the name of Mr. Jenkins.—The prisqner was remanded for further examination. Saturday, Charles Knight, aged 12, was charged by Sarah (Sines, a shopkeeper in Hooper-street, Clerkenwell, with creeping on his hands and knees behind her counter, and stealing from the till 17s. 6d. in silver, and a box of farthings. lie was committed to the House of Correction for three months, and to br whipped. Ann Gillen& landlady of the Queen's Head, Great Ormond-street, for suffering domino playing in her house on the 6th instant; and John ligitiverostgh, of the Golden Fleece, John-street Road, fot keep. ing his house open beyond the legal hour on the Sth inst. were con victed in the mitigated penalty of 20$. and costs, at the instance of that Patron of Morality—Johnson. p. GUILDHALL. The waiter who was charged with stealing two paltry pepper Cu. tors whit% had been used at the 1, magnificent" civic feast, was again brought before Mr. Alderman Ansley, on Saturday, when Mr. Burn, his employer, expressed his entire confidence in the honesty of the man ; and the Gentleman of the Committee who bad given him in charge not appearing to support his complaint, the prisoner was dismissed with a caution from the worthy Magistrate to be par. ticularly circumspect in his conduct in future, as, besaid, even now some persons might have doubts about his intentions,, and say he might naturally have supposed the articles used on such an occasion were more yaluable, and that the tops of the castors at least were silver, instead of being merely plated. BOW-STREET. Saturday, irdiiays Harris, alias IVillian Edwards, commonly called " Black Bill," the desperate leader of a gang of dragsmen, or waggon robbers, was brought up, charged with having, in conjunc tion with others, robbed Brown's Bedford waggon of silks, va lued at 3504 James Potter, a passenger by the waggon, deposed, that when the waggon was leaving the White Nary Inn, Clerkenwell, he saw the pawner drinking with several others, in a neighbouring public home. On arriving at Hbilovray. the witness observed a two horse stage coach pass, and on the outside were two of the men whom be had left at the public-house with the prisoner. A second coach passed with another of the same gang. On arriving at the Bell Bar, six miles beyond Barnet, the horses were taken out of the waggon; and the witness, on leavinz the inn, into which he had gone fur re freshment, perceived two men leaving the kinder part of the wag gon with a load under their arms ; it was two o'clock in the mot n ing, and too dark for him to identify the men, or to distinguish what they were carying away, but they were dressed similar to those whom he had seen with the prisoner. At six in the morning it was discovered that the waggon had been robbed; a box had been broken open, and its contents, valuable silks, had been taken away. The prisoner protested that the persons with whom he had been seen drinking were strangers to him, and that he was totally igno rant of the robbery.—l-1e was remanded, for further ezaanuattun, to Wednesday next. M ART-LA-BONNE. Saturday the reexamination of the prisoners, charged on sus picion of the highway Jobbery in Gunersbury-lane, took place.— Williamsoa, the constable, stated that he had made every search after the man robbed, but could trace nu tidings of him whatever. Information of the robbery, with a description of his person, have been given at Bow-street. Mr. R4WLINS3N thought it a most mys terious afair, and felt himself warranted in reminding the prioiners until Monday, in order that further exertions might be made to discover the man. E. G. Shepherd. foreman to Mr. Westley, a baker, in South. street, Manchester-siurre, was fully committed, charged with hat. ing robbed h 6 master of bread and flour. Robert Carpenter was fined 201. for stealing a dog belonging to R. Robinson, Esq. of 04naburg.street, or six months' imprisonment in default of payment. It was the practice of Mr. Robinson's servants to turn the dog for a few minutes into the street before the doors were fastened at night ; the prisoner availed himself of that opportunity, to take him in his arms, but the whining of the animal led to his immediate detection. QUERN-SQUARP- A female applied to the Magistrates, to compel the Overseen of St. blargartt's Folds to pay her for arrears of allowance due for the maintenance of an illegitimate child. It appeared that the applicant's sister had lived with a merchant, a rel at i ve t o a Noble I.l;rd. In March she was brought to bed at her residence, but since that time she bad died, and the child had been with her ever since. She applied in June last at this Office, but the Overseer was out of town, and she bad been ill sive. The parish had been indemnified for the infant. The O►erseers were ordered to pay the applicant from June to the present time, amounting to £3. MARLBOROUG H-STREET. On Saturday, Mau Gibson, the driver of the hackney, No. 1,134, appeared on a summons, to answer the complaint of the Rev. George Musgrave, the hector of 111ary-la-bonne parish. Mr. Musgrave deposed, that on the 7th inst. he was called to visit a sick child in Cleveland-street. On leaving his house, he took the defendant's coach, and desired him to drive to a certain number in the •above street, but on his arrival he was placed down at the opposite end. ().t the mistake being made, he asked the defendant, how be came to forget the number ? on which the defendant, with out having another word said to him, began to make use of the most disgusting language be had ever heard. On begging of him not to use such offensive terms, the defendant put his Sit in his lace, and, if possible, used snore infamous language, drawing thereby round him upwards of 40 persons, before whom he repeated his former indelicate observations, about complainant and the Estab lished Church. Having made his escape from the defendant and the mob, he considered he was only doing a public good in bringing the offender to justice. . _ Mr. Dres complimented the Reverend complainant for bringing such a character before him, for hackney coachmen were, without exception, the greatest nuisance that a person in London was likely to meet with ; then, towing to the fellow, he asked him what be had to say ? The fellow, who was as mild before the worthy Magistrate u be bad ,been insulting to the complainant, said be was irritated at the moment, and hoped that the worthy Magistrate would look over it. Mr. Musgrave—.Your language was most infamous, and tended to lower me in the minds of my parishioners, several of whom were present. The master of the defendant here stepped forward, and gave him a good character for several years past. Mr. Dr sa—This Is the grossest case that ever came before me as a Magistrate. I shall, as a caution to the whole body of them, in flict the penalty of 101. and if not paid, I will commit him to the House of 'Correction for three months. The fellow here supplicated the complainant for mercy. After some further supplications, the worthy Magistrate said, that in consequence of his previous good character, and the peni tence he now sheeted, he would only hne him SOs. This the de fendant said he could not pay, and in default, he was committed to the House of Correction for one moods to hard labour. UNION-HALL,. • Tire FITCHAW Mutinees.—lii the course of Saturday, a Gentle man, who sent in his card to the Ma g i s t ra t es , with the name and address of the Proprietor of The Fareser's &Wee written upon it, requested to have an interview, for the purpose of suggesting a method to discover whether Mary Ayres was at Weyhill fair. He observed, that he had attended the fair in question on the last occa sion,and that some circumstances occurred there during the time that every person who was en the spot must be aware sE Now he wished either to put certain questions to the woman herself on the subject alluded to, which would at once discover the truth of her assertiont or if any objection was made to his proposition, he should most happily write •down the extraordinary occurrences that took place at Weybill; and added, that some other persons might examine her ea the points. tide. Coalmen thanked the Gentleman, and remarked, that as no examination would take place that day, if he would commit the facts to paper, so the next day she was brought up, bib suggestions should be attended to. The Gentleman ha•inj complied with the ldegistrue's re rut, departed from the office. SPORTING INTELLIGEAL HUNTING. His hfajesty'i stat Hounds meet on Friday, at (er Heath.

PEDESTRIANISM. 7ntosos, Novnatasa 11.—The extraordlnary feat of running frinn the Long Walk Gate to Bishopsgate and back, a distauce of About seven miles,in thirty-six minutes, was undertaken on Satur day by a youth named Rummell, a German, only seventeen years of age. At about a quarter past twelve o'clock the pedestrian *tatted, accompanied by several Gentlemen on horseback, to wit ess the accomplishment of the task; but owing to the unfavourable state of the ground he failed iu the performance by about seven mi nutes. Tin-pedestrian appeared very little fatigued. A great num ber of persons were assentbkd, among whom a collection was made to reward his eirrtions. MID LOTHIAN COURSING CLUB.
