THE STRANGER BRIDE. Why walk I by the lonely strand? He comes not with the tide, His home is in a distant land, The stranger is his bride; The stranger on whose lofty brow vb, circling diamonds shine, . growths love *bade earliest vow And pledge of hope were mine ! They tell me that my Cheek is pale, That youth's gay smile is gone, That berrlitg thus the ocean gale, • • oird my heart to stone ; And friendship asks what secret care There is to work me woe ? But vainly seeks a grief to share, Which none shall ever know ! Ye waves that beard the false one swear, But saw hint not return, Yell not betray me if a tear Should start in spite of scorn; Yet no, a wounded spirit's pride, . Though passion's pangs are deep, Shall dash the trait'rous drop aside 1: -, From byes that must not weep ! vain, abs I I have nd pbwer To quit this lonely strand, From whence at the wild parting hour, I saw him leave the land; Though he has ta'en a stranger bride, My love cannot depart, .Its seal--too strong for woman's pride ! Will be a broken heart ! •r . ' I it MR. KEAN. DISTURBANCE AT THE BALTIMORE THEATRE. BALTIMORE THEATRE, JUNE B.—Mr. Kean played Richard last night before a very full house. On hi% first appearance he was greeted with three rounds of applause, which he acknowledged with apparently grateful salutations ; but before he had time to utter a word, several persons commenced hiising, and beating the doors with their sticks. A twist of tobacco was thrown, which struck Mr. Kean on the leg. This was respocded to by a general cry of " Turn 'em out— bravo, Kean—go on, &c. Upon this two placards were suspended from the boxes, one of which was painted in large letters d 4 The friends of Kean will be silent r on the other, 41 Kean for ever." Two or three of the disturbers were piiust out of the house. The opposition then seemed to decline,• as there appeared " a most fearful odds against them. ° A decided majority were either neutrals, or friends to Kean, and wished to see thc_play, or were determined to.put down all opposi. tiOn. Accordingly the neutrals were silent, and some young men,. warm friends of Kean, took it upon them selees" to rid the house of all opponents—in the execu tion orwhich, there were a goodly number of set-to's. The noise within, the windows being open on account of the heat, was heard at a considerable distance. This collected together a large assemblage of spectators in front of the theatre; and when the master spirits within began. to " ttitn them out," some disaffected in the Street began to pelt the windows with stones ; but be fore two dozen panes of glass were broken, the Mayor arrived with the watchmen and. bailiffs, and all was quiet without. By this prompt performance of his duty, the Mayor probably sa7ed the property of private citi zens from injury, but ever and anon the house was interrupted with rows in the upper lobby, which was " very annoying" to Mr. Kean, and that part of the audience who desired to witness the performance of Richard the Third. For our raft we say, let those who like' Mr. Kean as an. actor (and we have heard no one approve his private conduct), ,go to see him if they ple4se—those who do not, stay away. To give him empty boxes is the greatest punishment that can be inflicted. The remains of the Earl of CHICHESTER were inter red at the family vault at Laughton on Wednesday. The proem. sion was rather private, although followed by several of the tenantry, who met the cavalcade on its way from London to the place of in terment, through Uckfield, &c. WLNCHESTER, JULY 15.—Wheat harvest has corn snenced at Drayton, and ip several other parts of the county. It will commence generally in the neighbourhood of Salisbury the beginning of next week. Mr. Rawuus, of Box, in that county, reaped a field of wheat on the 7th inst. A magnificent fountain of pure Devonshire marble, from the quarries of the Bight lion. the Earl of Mosier, neat the Flying Bridge, has just been completed by Mr. SHIMHZAND, stone mason, Plymouth. It is intended for the Garde., of the Fonperor of 13aartr., at Rio de Janeiro, and is altogether one of the largest and most beautiful fountains ever seen in this kingdom. Its : main basin, which is of black marble, is supported by white pillars of the Corinthian order, partially worked, which at ,dis tance gives it theappeafance of a Grecian temple, and the contrast of colour has a chaste and beautiful 'effect. The weight of the wholeis 18 ions, and it stands 25 feet from the ground. WESTMINSTER HALL.--.Tile temporary C hurts in We tatinstes Hall, namely, for the Court of Exchequer and Exchequer Chamber, the sites of the former Courts ofiCifigs Bench and Chancery, fronting and blocking upibt grand sonth window, are new being pulled down. The_bitge, window at the end of the Hall opposite to its entrance, is thus once more clear to the view; aad the singular and ornamented effigies of Kings in the niches on, each • ide of the window, and which used to surmount the benches of the Judges, are again exposed tit general obaervatiott; at least as i many and as much of the effi gies. as remain, far some of the , niches are altogether without occupants, while others have only headless ornaments in them. A very worthy, though not particularly erudite under writer at Lloyd's, was conversing one day with a friend in the Coffee-house on the subject of a ship they bad mutually insured. His friend observed, "Do you know that I shrewdly suspect our ship is in jeoparel.9" " The D-4 sbe is," replied he; " well, I'm glad did she's get into soV4, port alma?'

BETTING ROOM, TATTERSALL'S, JOLT 17. The Subscription Room, (to -day), at an eatly hour, exhibited a good show of adventurers on the Turf of every class; but, from the intense heat of the weather, the gird was found the most con genial spot to retire to ; and the business which was left undone in .tlie.paying and receiving on the events of last •week's Newmarket July Meeting, seemed to be very easily and amicably adjusted. In respect to the making of fresh engagements on Great Races to come, we can say but little, as it scents that The General Mist which has for several weeks pervaded the Room, is not yet dispelled consequently Betting was flat, and but little business done. The Derby and Oaks Eitakes of the next year were not even mentioned. which at this time heretofore used to command extensive engage. ments. The Gloucestershire Stakes, which comes to issue this week, was the only race scarcely notified, and in which, it seems, Luzlioroush is the decided favourite, having jumped up one point since last Betting day, and on which several heavy sums were laid. The Doncaster St. Leger experienced but trifling attention. We here take the opportunity of noticing, that the report which has been so widely circulated, through the medium of the York shire and several other public prints, stating, that Lord Muncaster's filly, Garcia, engaged in. the St. Leger, was dead, is totally without foundation. It is true, that she was amiss a short time since, but we have it front indisputable authority that she Is now perfectly well, and at work ; and at present there seems no reason whatever to suppose but she will start for the St. Leger. The following will be found an accurate statement of the present Betting : . STAIES—.(CNIELTIOTHAMI).

The Crown Prince of PacrsatA arrived at the Hague on the 6th inst. We are sorry to announce that the Hon. Captain RODNEY, of the DRYAD frigate, is seriously indisposed. A letter from Rio Negro (Patagonia), mentions the arrival there of the privateer which sailed from Buenos Ayres to cruize on the Brazilian coast, with her prizes ; one, a three-masted vessel. estimated at 1.50,000 piastre', was lost in entering the port on the 14th. Several yes. sels, which arrived at St. Seba"tian the 2d instant, were chased by insurgent cruisers on the coast of Galicia.— Within a week five or six Spanish vessels have been captured, two of them from Bayonne. A recent critic has observed, that the common ex pression," Neck or nothing,"if it mean anything, means " Neck or everything." The official returns made by the provincial authori- ties to the Minister of Grace and Justice, state, that in the whole Peninsula the number of beggars amounts to 800,000, or one to every three families ; Andalusia alone furnis'►es nearly the one•fourt'► of this immense number of individuals subsisting on public charity. Yesterday, an old man, appare tiv from the country, wLnt into a stable-yard opposite Shoreditch Church, and threw himself on a dunghill. This attracted the notice of some workmen, who conveyed him to Shore ditch Workhouse, where he had no sooner arrived than he breathed his last, supposed from fatigue. The name of Barnes was in his hat. Saturday n;ght an elderly man, named B 'Welt, other. ise Archer, and a young roan named Eyler, late a clerk at the Spread Eagle Coach Office, Gracechurch street, apprehendeJ by Ruthven (the latter at Hull), were charged with being concerned . in stealing a parcel containing 5351. in Bank of England notes, the pro. perty of Messrs. Boston, Watt, and Co. of Soho, in Bir mingham. At the last Old Bailey Sessions, a son of the prisoner Bartlett was convicted in the Dune of Edward Archer of stealing the property in question from the B - rmingham coach, during its transit from London to Stoney Stratford, on the night of the 11th of April last. Three of the clerks in the Bulk of Eng land deposed, that the prisoner Bartlett, otherwise Archer, got sovereigns at the Bank in exchange for 300 of the stolen notes, on the morning of the day after the robbery took place—the 12th of April. He gave the name of Toobe, which was written by him upon one of the notes. There was no evidence called that in the least affected Fyler; and, at the application of his Soli—, citor, the case was post-poned till a future day. A JOKS LOST ST CARRYING.—it was remarked at a dinner party the other day, that the Elephant vras'expeeted to re main here a long time, as he had brought* large trunk with him. The company laughed, as so did a Lady who was present, though •he did not exactly know why she laughed. However, she deter mined to repeat t h e witticism as soon as an opportunity offered. Next evening some of her friends supped with her. The wild beasts were talked of. "Do you know,' said the Lady," the Ele phant is expected to stay a long while here, for be has brought a large portmanteau with him." To her utter astonishment, nobody seen smiled. Dustily, JULY 13.—Yesterday being- she 12. h of, July,-the bells rang out their old joyous peal in honour of the day, and the standard was displayed from Bed. Lord Tower after the usual manner. AU the other cere monials observed in honour of the day hikve fallen into desuetiide. The Orangemen of Belfast district entered into a resolution to confine their celebration of the 12th of July to their lodge-rooms, and not to have public processions. :- PERTH, JULY 14. Several vessels left the Tay last week for Holland, for the purpose, it is said, of importing hay of I.st year's growth. It can be purchased there lot-about 2d. per stone ; the importers calculate the freight will cost 6J. so that after paying all charges, they expect to be able to selljA, in this country, with a fair profit, at Is. per stone. The present price of that article, in this neighbouthood, is from 20d. to 2s. and in some of the grazing districts 2s. 6d. has been repeatedly refused, the •' fortunate holder?' not being willin j to part with it, in the present appearance of all sorts of crops for cattle feeding. Tuesday a nn extensive fire, calamitous in.its effects, as poor people are the principal sufferers, took place at Craire, near Perth, lately the scene of similar devas. cation. A young woman is said to have been kindling a fire with wood shavings and dried broom, which blazing to'n considerable height set the chimney in a flame. Some of the sparks communicated with the roof of a thatched house in the neighbourhood, which was instantly enveloped in 'the devouring element.— Four dwelling-houses, a wright's shop, and a cow house, fell a prey to the flames, and.scarcely a single article of property or furniture was saved from the conflagration. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. M A NSION- HOUSE. An hishwoman, named Mary aehan, was same days ago charged by Ambrose Osborne, a private id the East India Company's ser vice with having stolen fourteen Sovereigns and some silver out of hie Por,het, as he lay asleep in the tap-room of the Hercules public- house, in Leadenhall-street. lbe pi °securer stated, that as he was drinking in the public house, the prisoner entered with a basket of oranges, and asked him to be a customer. He purchased a couple of oranges from her, and asked her to take a glass of something, ao4sit down. She coo. seated, and drank a glass of gin and peppermint, and be paid her for the oranges; for the purpose of doing which, he took out of bis pocket a piece of rag, in which he had seventeen sovereigns and some silver. He returned the sovereigns to his pocket, and soon after fell asleep. When he awoke the prisoner was gone, and upon searching his pocket he ascertained that he had no more than three sovereigns and a small quantity of silver about hint. The prosecutor said he had never seen the prisoner before the day of the robbery, and as she sat next to him, and there was no other person near him, he was copvinced the prisoner was the thief. The other evidence was confirmatory of the account three by the prosecutor, and the Loan Marcos called upon blary Shehaniot her defence. • The prisoner, who looked quite unconscious of any offence, said, In a broad Irish accent, that she never was a thief in all. her born days, and that she'd scorn to steal from any body while she had strength rn earn it. " God knows," said ►he, " I don't know any thing about the young man, for 1 never see him before with my eyes. fin sure I never wronged any poor creature of a farthing.' The LORD blavon—Let her be remanded. Yesterday take prisoner was a third time brought up. The com mitment to Newgate was regularly made out, and the orders to each of the witnesses to give evidence were already written ; the prose cutor, who appeared anxious to get back his property, was informed by the clerk that he would certainly receive it upon the conviction of the woman ; w h en _ _ The LORD idAvon asked whether there was any further evidence, remarking, at the same time, that be had been led to delay the com mittal of the prieoner from some circumstances which struck him as remarkable hi the case. Mr. Parker, a respectable broker in the neighbourhood of So mer's-town, begged to be allowed to say a few swords. He had beard with surprise that Mary Sbehan had been taken up for rob bery; and he was convinced that she was as innocent of the crime as any one in the Justice Room. Hocould not, as he wan not pr;eent at the public-house, say any thing about what had occurred there, but he had heard the evidence, and his opinion of the young woman's integrity remained unshaken. Mr. Gray, a baker, in Gray's Ittn-lane. deposed -th a t h e k new the prisoner for some time, and that she was one of the most extra ordinary young women he ever saw in his life. She would live upon little or nothing, and used to put up every halfpenny she made. His wife employed her occasionally to de work about the *house, had the highest opinion of her integrity, and used td give her broken bread and meat. The young woman upon such occasions never spent a farthing, and had acquired such a character for making money, that the people used to say it was a shame to employ her. Much more evidence to the same effect was given, and The Loan Mayon immediately desired that the money should be given back to the prisoner, and that she should be discharged.— kle never, be said, felt more pleasure than in finding his first im pression of the poor girl's innocence so fully established. The con clusion of the case, which was listened to with breathless attention throughout, gave the greatest satisfaction to every one in the Justice Room, not excepting the soldier, who went away, convinced that the money,which he had expected to receive, had never been his own. Mr. LAnso tben ordered him to be removed from the bar, and he as admitted as evidence in corroboration of tht robbery. The prisoner declared that it was only a "bit of fun:" he had not the slightest intention of keeping the old Lady'i snuff.box, and as is the money that she had spoken of, if there was any in it, be was certain it must have fallen out. He was then proceeding to abuse Ms companion, when the Magistrate told him that basal better reserve hit defence for a Jury. The parties were then bound eve, 'ant the prisoest 1011011117 committed for trial. _ Frederick Kelly, one of those nice " boys" who annually collie over' to this country front the far-famed isle of Erin on various spec* lativs missions, was brought up in the custody of Davis, thie3ort stable, who attends Lady Huntingdon's . Chapel in Spat** san g t with exchanging q old hat for a new one, without the tfeent of privity of the owner. • . Mr. Lama told him that he might deem himself very toetasate bat the owner did not come forward to prosecute, or perhaps he twould be taught to be more particular in future. A lad named irs Mons was brought before the sitting Magietratet by Waddington, on suspicion of being conatrned in a robbery. - Waddington said. he hod no doubt the -property found on the prisoner belonged to some person from the country, attending= field Market that morning, and that tithe Magistrate would the prisoner, he thought he might find the owner, as their wati name in the pocket book, which might assist him in Ms inquiries. • The prisoner was then remanded for a week. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. .„Iv.. V 4 John Fenton was brought up from St. Giles's wititli-bons c i charged by William Rix with having stabbed hint at &biome of fame, in the Rookery, Church-street, St. Giles. Fenton said that he was in bed at the time the man was stabbed, and had'ais wat nesses to prove that be was not in the room till afterwards. hlr. Rot ordered the- deposition to be taken down, anal the p.l. toner to be detained till inquiry had been - made after AIL GUILDHALL. . Ellen a Jones was charged with attempting to convey a gallon of gin and a gallon of rum into the Debtors Prison, Whitecross street. Mr. Spencer, thosGovernur, stated that the wife of a publican in the neighbourhood was fined 101. lately for introducing spirits into the gaol, and the husband seemed determined, in revenge, to send in a greater quantity than ever, and he had succeelld to a surprising extent. The prisoner, the wife of a debtor, being suspected, was watched into tke house of a publican, yesttrday morning, by a turnkey, and on coming to the prison she was searched, and the spirits found in bladders concealed under her clothes and in a hand kerchief. The prisoner, who pleaded distress as her excuse for undertaking to carry in the liquor, was sentenced to six weeks' hard labour. W. Johnson was charged with stealing a bay mare, which was tied to a tree in Epping Forest, along with a dozen ethers, under the care of a bricklayer, on the 7th Instant, while the owners were enjoying the festivities of Fairlop Fair. The prisoner bad the mare put up for sale at the City Repository, and it was owned as it was going to the stables of a purchaser.—Remanded. BOW-STREET. A woman named Smith was charged on suspicion of stealing eleven shawls of a valuable description, the property of Messrs. Maynard and Pyne, of Ludgate UM. The shawls were, by some means, stolen unperceived from the door of the prosecutors on Thursday lin, and on Friday the pri lOW pledged them at Mr. Balfour's, a pawnbroker in &. Martin's Vire. On fhtistslay evening she applied to redeem three of them, bet infornsarldnisaving in •the interim been received that they were stolen, she was detained. The •prisooer told a long story ht her defence, of having been employed topledge them by a • M-ench lady, whom she met in the street.r-Remoaded. Mao Carter and Anne Connor, two young prostitutes, were yes terday committed for robbing a discharged gentleman's coachman of his watc► mad six sovereigns. HATTON-GARDEN. Yesterday, Edward Mealmeld and W' Wises Lech were brought up from Islington .watch-house, charjed with robbing Mrs. An derson, a respectable elderly woman, of a snuff-box and money, as the La g .. highway, The prisoner Macdonald, on being placed at the bar, *bowed an extraordinary anxiety to speak, be having formerly belonged to the legal profession, buk the Magistrate told him it might be more pru dent to reserve his paints of law for another occasion. The complainant then stated, that having dined with a friend at Islington, on Sunday, slue was induced to remain out later than usual, and having declined an escort, she was returning home alone at a little after eleven o'clock. As she was coming down At. Johnntreet, she pulled a box out of her pocket to take a pinch of snuff, and at the moment the prisoners passed by, when Macdonald suddenly turned round, and said, 44 Will you allow me to take a little of your gnat, Madam r From the respectability of the man's appearance, she was induced to comply with the request,' but she no sooner presented the box than Macdonald made a vio lent grasp at it, and sneesadad in forging it out of her hand, together with a silk handkerchief, and instantly made of Prose emit then called the watch; and gave Locke, in custody, and the other being pursued, was appr e he n d e d a t Islington turnpike. In the box was a sovereigh and a half sovereign, but though the box was found on his person, no trace of the money could be had.— With respect to Locke e had to charge to prefer, except that it appeared to her that he was in company with the other prisoner. Locke did not deny that he was an acquaintance of Macdonald's. but he solemnly declared that he had no Idea that he could have • bees capable of suck an unmanly and disgraceful act. WORSHIP-STREET. A man, named Robert King, was brought before the sitting Ma gistrate, Mr. Baxsrr, charged with hiving peen one of a g ang w h o robbed and maltreated a person, named Myers, on Friday. The complaihant- is a convert from the Jewish to the Christian faith; has been several years a special constable in the parish .pf flethnal.green, and at present holds the situation of beadle at tee Episcopal Jews' Chapel, Mile-end. He stated, that about suet; o'clock on Friday evening be was stopped at the corner of Flom. street-hill by six men, who demanded his money. He Itesitatrej;: but one of the [den, the prisoner, exclaimed with an oath, that then would take what money he had, and struck him on the face willaiU clenched fist, containing something heavy, which projected on 'soh side. He was instantly knocked down, and one of the men thrust his hand into his pockets, and robbed him of his money, while die others continued beating him. They then kft him in a deploralat condition, and as soon afterwards as be was able he went to Norris, one of the conductors of B.aw-stteet patrol, and gave him a de scription of the ruffians. John Norris, the officer mentioned, stated, that he apprehended the prisoner the following day, from the description given of him by Myers. The complainant's face was terribly swollen and disfigured from the blows he bad received, and he swore positively that the prisoner was the man who struck him as he had described. The priioner was remanded for a week, in order to give time for apprehending his companions in the outrage. The introduction of foreign wrought silks has not hitherto affected the demand for labour, and the mann. facturets at Manchester seem confident of their ability to keep the market. A Greek urn was lately dug up near Bremen, which _ would show that the Romans were not the only people of Southern Europe who penetrated so far north, in ancient times. At Balinasloe, in Ireland, a cask of batter has been found in a bog eight feet under the surface. It is sup posed to hare lain there for some centuries, fur the wood was perfectly rotten, and fell asunder as soon as it *as taken out of the ground. Half of the butter was gill fresh, and fit for use ; the other half was changed into a harder substance. MUMMER AT WINTON.—Mr. R.
