A Card to Ladies of Fashion, and the Farhionatl•. Wet.ldat large.—The inimitable LONC STAYS, invented and Manufactured by MARSTON, 21 and 25, -Holy - v, ell -street, Strand, have occasioned considerable asto nishment in the circle of Fashion. The unique pro. perties of the Invention, the superlative elegant style in which they are executed, the matchless taste and beauty of the article, have excited general atten tion.—Ladies aboutt to have Town are requested- to notice especially an invention highly worthy of their notice. Sunday se'nnight Mr. FARQUHARSON, of the Hope Tavern, Montrose, accompanied by two men, pm ceeded in a gig for a few miles to the. north, with a horse which had just been broke in. On their return, at the north end of the lower North Esk Bridge, the animal became restive, and all their endeavours could not urge him fore ard. He suddenly turned round, drove the vehicle against the wall of the bridge at the moment when Mr. FARQUHARSON had stood up to re- strain iirn. when he was precipitated from the vehicle right over the bridge, about 40 or 50 feet high, fortu nately f - him at a place quite dry and overgrown with grass. When found he was quite iasenible, but soon recovered, and is now almost as w :2.11 as ever. 4n twit garrettcer, boasting to an acquaintance of the rurally of his lodging, said that his chamber over ' looked a zrove—rf chimneys in Hedge-lane.

" A Mery hognostigation," imprynted by Wyn . - kyn de Worde, is probably one of the earliest attempts to ridicule almanac makers. It proceeds in this way : " Because tl'it Saturne is dominator here, f; ode that they steal be twelve senate' this yore i" and concludes thus: • "OF XYNGE3.

The following odd extract is made from the Asylum of the Carthusians, in Which it was written by the late Lord Baum:, Bishop of Derry : 16 If second thoughts are best, second visits are not so ; my son and I arrived here on the 18th Decem ber, and left it the Monday following.

As for tie Holy Fathers, they always put me in mind of Virgil— " Qualm regent cc tht re in alto, " Nutt et pa,periem, et duros l erferre !ewes." Various are the derivations of the word Lamina:- Some suppose it is called Lammas-day front Lamb Masse, because on that day, tin/ tenants that held lands of the cathedral clutch in York, were hound, by their tenure to hrirg a live lamb into the church at high mass, on that d y. Others derive it from a Saxon word, signifying Loaf-Masse, or Bread-Masse, because on this day, our forefathers made an offeringof bread from new wheat. The old proverb of • He a ill pay at Latter Lammas,' is taken from the antient custom of landlords allowing their tenants to bring their wheat, in backward seasons, at this period. The indulgence, however, brink abused, the proverb became synony mous, in meaning, with the common one of To-mor row come never, when two Sundays come toge ther.'

These Assizes commenced before the Lott/POWs . finuoN on Tuesday last, when the following priso ners took their trials James Maxey stood charged on two several indict ments with having feloniously murdered Dinah, his wife, and Elizabeth Smith, single woman, her dough. ter by a former husband, by administering poison to them on the 20th . of May last.—After a long and patient investigation of all the circumstances connec ted with the deaths of these unfortunate women, which were clearly proved to have been occasioned by poison, and an able charge from the Judge, who gave it as his opinion, that those circumstances did not amount to such evidence as to justify attaching guilt to the prisoner—the Jury, in a few minutes, found a verdict of acquittal. John. Codling, charged with stealing divers articles from the man coach passing through Thetford, the property of the proprietors of the said mail coach, pleaded guilty to the .indic:ment laid against hire, and was sentenced to seven years' transportation. 7 homes: Mewling, for receiving the said property, knowing the same to have been stolen, also pleaded guilty, and was sentenced to 14 years' transportation. William lAA for stealing ten geese from oft tl:e premises of Benjamin Redhead, of Great Melton, was sentenced to twelve months hard I..bour in the House of Correction. The depredations of this man were detected, and himself brought to justice, through the sagacity of the keeper of the Colsey toll gate, Nathaniel Plumpton, who noticing that the prisoner was in the frequent habit of passing the gate late at night with an ass and panniers, and returning with them loaded with fowls at an early hour in the morn ing, acquainted a neighbouring Magistrate (Mr. Postle) with his suspicions, by whose direction pro per steps sere taken for the apprehension of the pri soner, and for fully proving him guilty of the robbery in question. John Roger:, for stealing out of the pocket of Sa muel Calendar, labourer, at Upwell, 10s. in silver coin, his property, was kentenced to one month's im prisonment, and to be once publicly whipped. illiam Carter, for stealing 134. 10s. 6d. in silver, out of the dwelling-house of James Moore, of Wort well, was sentenced to two years, and Robert Brt.zc, for stealing a watch, the property of Mr. Anthony Salter, of Whinberg, was sentenced to one year's hard labour in the House of Correction. Elizaleth Sn:ith, charged with embezzling a £5 bank -note, with which she had been entrusted by her master, Mr. Charles Pinching, for the payment of tarts, was convicted - of the offence. His Lordship observed, that it was a clear case as to the embez zkment of the money, but that he had great doubts whether the Act of Parliament, on which the indict. ment was framed, was applicable to a woman, and he should therefore reserve it for the opinion of the dges. Samuel Mil: and John Root were charged with hav ing stolen and carried away oysters from an oyster bed within the limits of the port of King's Lynn, the property of the Mayor and Burgesses of the said bo rough. There was a second indictment on the same case, for a misdemeanor. The trial on the first in dictment, after Mr. BEST had made his opening speech, was stopped by his Lordship, on the ground that the offence charged was not a felony, there being no pos session to be proved on the part of the prosecutors.— On the second indictment, a great deal both of pa role and written evidence was brought forward, chiefly for the purpose of shewing the limits of the port, and of proving the exclusive rights of fishery on the spot in question. The LORD CHIEF BARON animadverted on the pre sent prosecution in terms of much severity. He.said it was a disgrace to the Corporation of Lynn to have tried thii question in the manner they had done—that it was in tact nothing more than an action of trespass, to ascertain a right, brought in the shape of a crimi n.il indictment—and this on a principle which, if pushed to the scandalous extent it was capable of reaching, would make a man liable to very heavy penalties, who should take a single oyster away from the grounds in question, for the sole purpose of shew. ing that he did not acquiesce in the right of fishery claimed by the Corporation of Lynn—a right, his Lordship added, in support of which they had not adduced such evidence as was at all satisfactory to his mind ; and lie must therefore direct the Jury to acquit the prisoners, hoping that he should never have such a cause come before him again. To punish. men by a ten weeks imprisonment merely for the of trying an experiment was pursuing a course of which, his Lordship observed, he could nut but express his disapprobation. The Jury accordingly brought in a verdict of Ac quittal—as they did also in the case o 4 Macpherson and ethers, under similar indictments. DURHAM. Mary Lamb, the wile of a respectable farmer, at Hctton, was tried for stealing a pair of stockings, out of the shop of Mr. Shields, draper, in Dutham, on the 21st of November last. The principal evidence was Anne Dryden, of Ea sington, who positively swore to seeing the prisoner put her hand through her pocket•hole, stoop down, take the stockings from the door in Mr. Shields's shop, ::nd put them in her pocket. She was so aear as to discover the colour of the tops ; she informed Mr. William S,hields, jun. of the transaction, who took the prisoner into a passage in the shop, taxed her with her guilt, and found the stoc kings on the ground, covered with a handkerchief the prisoner dropt from her pocket: Lamb expressed surprise that sl:e should have any thing which did. not belong to her, and accounted for the stockings being in her posses !:ion, by saving, she must have taken them up by mis take t‘ith her handkerchief. Mr. Shields proved the stockings by their private mark, and that the cost ;mice was 3s. 19d. On the cross-examination of Ann Dryden, it wits attempted to be proved, that she was on bad terms with the Potter family, who were near relations of the prisoner's; and to prove this, Robert Clough, a school master, who, at the time this misdemeanor took place, lived at Easington, swore that in a conversation with Ann Dryden on this businzss, she stated, that " she had an old grudge against the Potter family ; that a part of them had been taking stockings out of Mr. Shields' shop 41 - Durham, and now hoped' Ihrhad it DIED.

QUEEN'S COUNTY. Patrick Neil, Michael Neal, William Marishy, and 'William Cantwell, were charged-Ist, with discharging a loaded pistol at Peter West—secondly, with con spiring to murder him—and thirdly, for a riot.

On the 16th of July, in consequence of an advertisement, calling the parishioners toge ther, he went to a house in the parish to receive the arrears of tithes, none of whiCh had been paid since 1808. On going in, there were a number of persons at the door ; he sat at the table : a man named Cor coran came and. inquired what tithes were due by him, and being informed, went out. He imme diately after heard Corcoran say to the people with out, " he is alone now," and a great number of them rushed into the room; he held out his hand 'to Patrick Neil, who refused to shake hands with him, and leaned over sideways from him. At this instant a shot was filed from bairnd his chair, and he after wards found that two balls had entered his shoulder. —(Here the balls were produced).-1-le was positive Nlitrphy was the man who fired, for no other man was behind the chair ; he knew him well, as he did the other prisoners.
