DOVER, SEPTEMBER 2S. The Industry passage-vessel, in coming out of Boulogne harbour, on Friday, ran on shore, and has ,stained considerable damage. The passengers were a n sa fely landed, but some part of the baggage was lost, and the greater part of the remainder more or l e ss injured. Sailed yesterday morning for Calais, the Chichester packet, with a Mail ; and the Iris F ren ch packet ; also the Eclipse packet, for Ostend, with a Mail; and the Elizabeth passage-vessel, for Boulogne. Arrived the Rob Roy steam-vessel, and pa s sage-vessel, from Calais; and the C um berland Lord Duncan packet, with a Mail from Ostind.— The King George packet is still detained, but for whom we are totally ignorant. A C or respondent from Portsmouth observes, in an Evening Paper of Friday, that the inhabitants of Dover will experience more mortification than dis appointment, at his MAJESTY nbt honouring them with his presence. We are greatly indebted to the « pretender to the knowledge of another's feelings" for his remarks, but think that they were dictated, in some degree, by the spirit of the mortification he fancies he can perceive in others.

Tuesday, a most destructive fire broke out in the stack-yard on the premises of Mr. Reed, of Gorleston, near Great Yarmouth, by which four stacks of hay, two of oats, cue of wheat, and a large straw stack, were entirely burnt. The fire was first discovered by Mr. Matthew, baker, of Gorleston, who was passing the farm abouteleven o'clock : he immediately called op Mr. Reed and his family, who had been in bed about half an hour. The wind at the time was blowing quite a gale from the N.W. which prevented the possibility of arresting the progress of the Limes. The stacks continued burning the whole of the fol lowing day.

OFPICIAL ACCOUNT. " Head-quarters of the Liberating Army, " Valencia, June 23, 1221. " TO AIIS it:clew:war THE ratsromr OF THE OEHEL&I. CONCUSS OP COLUMBU. MOST Excet.mer Ste—Yesterday the political birth of the Republic of Columbia was confirmed by a splendid victory. " The divisions of the liberating army having joined in the plains of Tinaquillo op the ‘25d,-sre marched yesterday morning on the bead-quarters of the enemy, in Carabobo. " The first divhicn, composed of the brave British battalion, the brave of the Apure, and 1500 cavalry, under the orders of General Paez. The second, composed of the second brigade of Guards, the battalions of Firailleurs, Boyareiend Vargas, end the sacred squadron commanded by the undaunted Colonel Ara mendi, under the orders of General Sedeno. The third, com posed of the first brigade of Guards, the battalions of Rifles, Grenadiers, vanquishers of litiyaca, Anzoategui, and the intrepid Colonel Rondon's Regiment of Cavalry, under the orders of Colonel Plaza. " Our march across the mountains and through the defiles, which separated us from the enemy's camp, was rapid and or derly. At eleven in the morning we defiled by our left in front of the enemy, and under his fire; we crossed a rivulet, where only one man could pass at once, in presence of an army placed on an inaccessible level height, commanding us in every direction. " The gallant General Paez, at the head of the two battalions of his division, and the brave Colonel Munos's Regiment of Cavalry, attacked the ens my's right with such fury, that in half an hour he was thrown into confusion and completely routed. It is impossible to do sufficient honour to the valour of our troops. The British battalion, commanded by the meritorious Colonel Farrier, distinguished itself amongst so many other brave men. and suffered a heavy loss of Officers. ' The conduct of General Pars in this last and most glorious victory of Columbia readers him deserving of the his/Nest military rank ; and I therefore, in the name of the Congress, offered on the field of battle to appoint him General in Chief of the Army. " None of the second division partook in the action, except a part of the Tirailleurs of the Guard commanded by the worthy Commandant Ileras. But its General, enraged that all his divi sion could not, from the obstacles of the ground, join in the battle, charged singly a mass of infantry, and fell in its centre in the heroic manner that ought to close the glorious career of the bravest of Columbia's brave. In General Sedeno the Republic has lost a staunch supporter, both in peace and war; none more valiant than he, none more obedient to his Government. I recommend the ashes of the gallant hero to the Sovereign Congress, that the honours of a solemn triumph may be paid to his memory. " Like grief does the Republic suffer in the fall of the dauntless Colonel I'laza,who, filled with an unparalleled enthusiasm, threw himself on a battalion of die enemy, desiring it to surrender.— Colonel Plaza is deserving of Columbia's tears, and that Congress confer on him the honours due to such distinguished heroism. " The enemy being dispersed, the ardour of our Chiefs and Officers was so great in the pursuit, that we sustained consider able loss in that high class of the army. The Bulletin will coin municate their illustrious names. _ _ " The Spanish army exceeded 6,000 men, composed of all the best of the pacificatory expeditions. That army has ceased to exist : only 460 men will have this day taken refuge in Puerto Cabello. _ _ " The Liberating Army had an equal force to that of the enemy, but not more than a fifth part of it decided the fortune of the day. Our loss is not great—hardly 200 in killed and wounded. _ _ " Colonel Rangell, who did, as he always does, prodigies, marched this day to take up a line against Puerto Cabello. " May it please the Sovereign Congress to accept, in the name of the heroes whom I have the honour to command, the ho mage of a conquered army, the most numerous and the finest that ever in Columbia carried arms in a field of battle. " I have the honour to he, with the highest consideration, most Excellent Sir, your Excellency's most obedient humble servant, (Signed) " BOLIVAR." During the KlNtes stay in Dublin, an Irish Gen tleman presented his MAJESTY with a piece of cloth, sufficient for a coat, and also the two sheep from the fleeces of which the cloth was made. They are a cross from the Merino flock of the late Kinn. They were brought to Spithead in the ACTIVE, landed and sent off on Friday for Windsor, under the charge of a shepherd, who came purposely to take charge of them. Mr.LUEIi PLUNEIT, of Dublin, has published an Address, calling on his countrymen to go into Mourn ing for her late MAJESTY, and states that he himself has paid that mark of respect to her memory. DUBLIN, SEPT. 19.—Armstrong, alias Murray, whose confession of murder has been mentioned be fore, underwent a private examination beft.re a Ma gistrate at the Head Police Office. He denied the murder, or any participation in it. He now states, that his real name is Murphy; that he is a native of Tralee ; that in the year 1805 he enlisted in the 4d, or Queen's Own, Regiment of Dragoons, that he remained with them one day, and then deserted; that he afterwards took a bounty from the Marines, and was drafted into the Plymouth division of that corps, in which he served till 1815, when he was discharged ; that in the year 1817, he delivered himself up in_the town of Mill-street, as a deserter, but was considered unfit for service ; that he afterwards was confined ten months in Maryborough jail, for burglary, in which he became acquainted with Ryan, the actual mur derer of West, the miller, and who was executed for the crime ; that he was afterwards taken up in Ches ter as a deserter, and sent off to Demerara, and not liking his situation, he thought the only hope he had of returning to his native country was by trumping up the story which he did ; that Ryan's communication in Maryborough jail assisted him materially in doing this; and that the confessions be fore Sir 11. Birnie, and afterwards, were merely a con tinuation of the system of delusion under which he wished the Police Officers to proceed. It is impossi ble for any one at present to form an opinion respect ing this mysterious business. He will take his trial at Maryborough ; but unless something more than his own disavowed confession appear in evidence against him, he must be acquitted. On the 18th of August, two women, named Eliza Moore and Marianne Coyle, both residing at N 0.27, Essex-street, Dublin, the former in the shop, the latter in the cellar, where they retailed oysters, and made out a very respectable livelihood. having a dispute together, arising from jealousy of business, most angry and abusive language was exchanged between them, when Coyle, losing all temper, seized the broken pieces of a plate, which she flung at Moore, but did not hit her ; unfortunately, however, Moore's servant maid was standing about two yards behind her mis tress, with her infant child, a fine boy, only seven weeks old, in her arms, and unluckily the infant re ceived twcfctits in the forehead from the pieces of the One, which inflicted a severe wound ; the infant lin gered in great agony till Friday se'nnight, when he expired. An Inquest was held on the body on Satur day, by Alderman TYNDALL, Coroner, and a most respectable Jury, who, after a very patient investiga tion of all the circumstances connected with the un- fortunate transaction, returned the following verdict : a That the deceased infant, Henry Moore, came by his death in consequence of a wound on his forehead, inflicted by Marianne Coyle, which was intended for Eliza Moore, mother of the deceased, Henry Moore." Coyle was fully committed by the Coroner to New gate, to abide her trial at the next CJlliali:.4o/1. OLD IiAILEY SESSIONS. Saturday, Mcry Fora was indicted for stealing the female child of John T. King and Elizabeth Sarah, this wife, with intent to steal its clothes, or to deprive the parents of the possession of their child. The prosecutor is a writer to a law stationer, and he lives in Chichester-rents, Chancery-lane. On the evening of the 21st of August, his child, who is not sir years old, was sitting on the step of the street door, about nine o'clock, when his wife, whoa as i n the shop, heard a woman accost the child, telling her that if she would go with her she would give her nice cakes. The child came in, and asked her mother's leave to go with the Lady, which was refused. The child came again for leave to go, which was again refused ; and her mother being busy in the shop, did not miss her for some time. Mr. Hurlewell, who lives in Chancery-lane, saw the prisoner going away with Mr. King's and another child towards Carey street, and heard her ask how the child's sister Sally was? The latter said she had no sister Sally; on which Mr. Hurlewell suspected that the prisoner had some bad design, as she seemed totally unacquainted with the child's family ; he therefore followed her down Bell-yard, and near Fleet-..trees she was taken. She seemed much confused ; and when asked where 'she was taking the children ? she said to Surrey street. She endeavoured also to escape from the officer. The defence was, that she was an unfortunate girl, and that she had only taken away the childten that they might carry a message for her to a person in Symond's Inn, when she meant to bring them home again. The Jury retired for a considerable time, and then returned a verdict, finding the prisoner Guilty of stealing the child with intent to deprive the parents of the possession of it, but acquitted her of stealing it with intent to steal its apparel. A dreadful accident happened at Keighly, on Sun day seennight, in the afternoon. There has lately arisen in Yorkshire, and in various other parts of the kingdom, a religious community, calling themselves Primitive Methodists, from what they consider an ad herence to the principles and practice of the original followers of John Wesley ; by others they are called Rapiers, from the fervour of their devotion, which frequently manifests itself in bursts of enthusiasm; which runs through their public assemblies. On the above day, in the afternoon, upwards of two hundred of these persons were assembled in the upper room of a wool warehouse, at Keighly, for the purpose of holding a love-feast, which is a species of religious service consisting of a simple repast, after which, such of the congregation as think their own expe rience will be edifying, relate the particulars of it to their fellow-worshippers. When the services of the day, which had been peculiarly animated, were &Aw ing to a close, and the people were about to depart, a dreadful crash was heard from the breaking of the timbers of the floor, and in a moment the 'whole as. sembly was precipitated through the floor into the room below. It is impossible to describe the scene of confusion and dismay which followed. The shrieks of the females and the groans of the wounded spread consternation through the neighbourhoed. The young and the more active generally escaped without much injury, but from fifty to sixty persons, a large pro portion of them old women, were severely crushed and wounded. An elderly woman, of the name of Martha Wood, died on Monday night ; and a num ber of others lie at the present moment in a very dangerous state. The following is a list of some of the sufferers, with the nature of their injuries : Timothy Ambler, leg and arm broken ; Mary Peel, one of hat legs broken : Harrison Ingrow, one of his arms broken; widow Waddington, one of her legs broken ; Elijah Green, his leg broken in two places; Sarah Sunderland, her k. g and thigh broken; Martha Bradshaw, foot dreadfully injured and"..irtn broken; John Naylor, his arm broken; Susannah Leach, her thigh broken; Mary Jones, her leg and thigh broken ; Mary Carter, a widow with three children, her collar-bone and three ribs broken; Mary Ramsden, severely hurt, and since delivered of a dea l child at a premature birth; widow Wilkinson, crushed so dreadfully that her life is despaired of. —The other sufferers are many of them labouring under severe wounds and contusions, and the situa. tiun of the principal part of them is truly deplorable. Poverty, in most of the cases, is added to their other sufferings; but the more opulent inhabitants of the place have very laudably opened a subscription for their relief. Friday being St. Matthew's Day, the LORD MAYOR and Sheriffs, Sir JAMES SHAW, Bart. and Alderman Sir RICHARD CARR GLYN, Bart. Sir C. SMITH, T. THORNTON, Esq. J. PALMER, Esq. and the rest of the Governors and Treasurers of the several Royal Hospitals, attended Divine Service at Christ Church, Newgate-street, where an excellent Sermon was preached by the Reverend It. LYNAM, M. A.-. The LORD MAYOR, Governors, &c. repaired to the great Hall in Christ's Hospital, which was crowded with Ladies and Gentlemen, to hear the orations,- The first, in Latin, was delivered by Master JOSHUA WELSH, the senior scholar; the English oration was spoken by Master JOSEPH YATES CooxsoN, the se cond scholar. After the orations were concluded, the LORD MAYOR, Aldermen, and the whole of the company, rewarded the young orators by pecuniary marks of their approbation. His Lordship and the company were entertained with cake and wine, and afterwards broke up. Cosa Excn.tsna, MAaxa.Aitx.
