YORK, Seel-.'2 3 .—The first series of these perfoiln-, ancet commenced this day. For the last three.days this city has had the appearance of more than wonted bustle and activity, particularly vesterday, when car riages contiaued to arrive the whole of the day, follow. ing each other in rapid succession. The large west gallery, was this day completely Wiled, as also was the middle aisle, and nearly the side aisle of our magnificent Cathedral. The orchestra consists of nearly five hunched instrumental performers; and Madame Miss Stephens, Miss D. Travis, M r . Vaughan, Mr. Sapid, and others, are amongst the Vocalists. We commenced with Handel's Tc Delon—the first bursting sound of the opening symphony was truly ap palling; and when the voices joined the instruments in , r We praise thee, 0 Goo," the auditory sense was nearly overpowered. At that part where the altos utter the words " Holy, holy," the sound seemed to come Flom the most distant of the Heavens ; and at the pause, LORD GOD of Sabbanth," it resembled the rolling of a thousand thunders. The octaves in the passage, "The 'leavens, and all the powers therein," appeared widened by the increased depth of the bass—these are new and Striking effects. The Tempest of Haydn followed, and as the former was a grawd assemblage of soitild .ad dressed to the DEITY, this was a grand display of voices and instruments, to express the raging of the elements in the natural world. The volcanic eruptions of the trumpets and trombones—and the whirl of the bass into the deepest vecesses, struck the imagination like the crush and ruin of the universe; yet the softest touches of the piano-forte might have been heard at the highest point of the gallery. The middle aisle is as long again as Westminster Abbey; and when seated on the highest point, the voices in the orchestra seem to Come from an opposite mountain. Catalani iii "Graties ° tus tibi," and " Holy, hoiy"—Mi ss St e phens, in "Pious (hgic„,," and " As from the power," &c. were hem in finer voice. NAVAL LvTELLIGENCE.

Corms, SEPT. 2l.—Yesterday morning the Honour able CHARLES PUNTA I's yacht Falcon cite into har bour to be paid off, and laid up for the winter ; and as -he is Commodore, we expect his example will be gene tally followed by the members of the Royal Yacht Club. '1 he season has been most discouraging to yacht sailors, yet it appears to have had but little effect in deterring the members of the Royal Yacht Club from embarking -as usual. Among those we have seen here with the Commodore are, Lord Viscount Melville in the Admiralty yacht, the Duke of Nor folk, Marquis of Anglesey, Lord Willoughby de Broke, J. Manse, Esq. T.

It is a recreation that promotes alike the health of the individuals and the prosperity of the inuntly, while it is the most honourable and lca)t ex pensive amusement an English Gentleman can embark in; and, therefore, we hope to see the list of its mmrt bets rai, idly increase. and that, under the protection of the Kira. and the Admiralty, it will become as po pular as useful.

Sta—Permit me, through the medium of your Journal, to inform the drawers of checks on bankers, that they may entirely prevent the fraud arising from the discharge of the amount by acids, simply by writing the amount on the back of the check, immediately op posite the signature ; the check -being likewise filled up in the usual way. This plan may be universally.adopted without trouble, delay, or expense - ; and it is perfectly secure, for any attempt to discharge thewriting on the back would injure the signature, and render the check useless. The only obstacles to the adoption of this simple remeJy, which I can conceive, are, that it has not the advantage of enriching any engraver or paper mauo - may occupy too much of the drawer's time, and is wanting in elegance, being written on both sides. I am, Sir, your's, &c. R. C. 46, Southampton-buildings, September 23. COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL. Yesterday a Court of Common Council was held at the Guildhall of the city of London for the dispatch of various business. A petition was received from the New River Corn pany, praying for a lease of certain grounds near Brc ken. wharf, for the purpose of erecting works to supply the City with water. _ _ _ _ Dixox hoped that it was in the contemplation of the Company to give to the inhabitants of Tower Ward and Billingsgate Ward a better'supply of water than was afforded to them now. At present they had a lack of water ior their . domestic purposes, and in civ of fire the consequences would be lamentable. The petition was ordered to be referred to the Bridge-, house Committee. A Report was presented from the Committee of City Lands, recommending that a sum of 5501. be granted for new roofing the Fleet green-market. On the question that it be received, a desultory con versation took place, in which Mr. Alderman WOOD, Mr. S. DixoN, Mr. SLADE, Mr. R. TAYLOR, and others joined. In the course of it, it was stated that the new Post Office, owing to, feitnt arrangement with Go vernment, would speedily be commenced, and that a new street would be built near it that would prove an honour to the City of London. Mr. SLADE moved as an amendment, that the consi deration of this Report should be adjourned, and that the Committee of Improvements should be ordered to con sider on the practicability of removing Fleet-market to some better situation. After a short discussion, the amendment was with drawn, and another moved, that it should be referred to the Committee to consider what repairs were necessary in Fleet-market. On a shew of hands, the LORD MAYOR declared the Amendment to be carried. A division was then de manded, and on its takiog place there appeared— Fur the Amendment, 37 1 Against it, 34 I Majority 3. The Bill for regulating the ticket porters was then read a third time and passed. Mr. FA YELL then rose to give notice of a motion, which he trusted at some future period would meet the unanimous approbation of the Court In the chamber in which they werethen assembled,' they had the pic tures of Royalty, and the bitsts of distinguished naval and military heroes. There was, however, a pedestal still unoccupied, and he thought that it could not be better filled than by placing on it the bust of.a philanthropist who, if inferior to any, was only inferior to the immor. tal Howard. He should therefore give notice of a ma.. tion to this effect—" That a marble bust of the late Granville Sharpe, Esq. the founder of the Society for the Abolition of the Slave Trade, should be placed on the vacant pedestal in that chamber." Mr. S. Dam; observed, that in his opinion Mr. Gran ville Sharpe was "not a person of such importance and notoriety as to deserve so distinguished an honour. Be sides, if they placed his bust there, they ought also to place within their walls the bust of Mr. Wilberforce, who had brought that work to so glorious a termina tion ; as also those of Mr. Buxton and other benevolent individuals by whom he had been so ably and success fully seconded. On the motion of Mr. WALSH, it was referred to the Committee of City Lands " to take into consideration the present nuisance of the increasing number of the high vans and short stage-coaches within the City of London, to and from places adjacent thereto, and to ap ply a remedy or accommodation to it, if possible." Various routine business was then transacted, after which the Court broke up. Fl U.—Wednesday night a fire broke out at No. 33, r Speldhurst-street, Burton Crescent, occupied by a Mr. I3amberger, a dealer in French china, &c. Mr. B. was the first to escape, after the alarm of the watchmen, by whose aid, and the assistance of some neighbours; the inmates were rescued in their night-clothet:. but not without some of them being severely hurt.. Two of the children were carried to the Middlesex Hospital. DUEL Wednesday night information was re ceived by the Police, that Captain S—h and T: B. D--n, Esq. were to fight a duel next morning ; con sequently a party of officers, at an early hour, repaired to Chalk Farm, the &ace supposed to be appointed, but they were foiled, the Gentlemen whotn they were in quest of went to Hyde-park. The Captain was attended by a young Nobleman, a near relation, and a surgeon. Mr. D—n was seconded by a Captain of Hussars. They met at an early hour, on the eastern side of the Nlagazine, near Kensington-gardens. The usual preli minaries having been gene through, they fired together. Both the shots took effect ; the Captain received his antagonist's ball in the pistol arm, and Hr. D. was wounded in the right side. Both 'wounds 'are severe, but not dangerous. Their surgeons haiing bound Up the wounds, the seconds interfered, and the parties lett the ground upon friendly terms. - It is said the difference first originated at a gambling-house in St. James's. A facetious farmer, who had a mind CO be witty at the ekpense of decorum, lately received a rebsr, which was taken with as much gond humour as it was given :-A Lady had been walking with him over her farm, and chewing him her sheep and other stock : on their re- 1 ' turn, just as they were entering the house, the Lady ex claimed, " Dear me, you have not seen my calf, Sir. It is one of the prettiest and handsomest you aver saw." " No, Ma'am (said the farmer), I never saw higher than your anae." The Lady, of course, felt herself rather , confused at this unexpected sally, but soon recollecting herself, observed, " that she shOUld never sce a ca/f With Out thinking of. hint !" . . PERuPIA;v ioAW. • Yesterday Meeting wAs.held at the Ci.t of.Lotidon Tavern (pursuant to- adstrrisementr, of the holders of Peruvian Stock, to consider the propositiOn made fot. a farther dep os it on t h e amount of each holderl Stott:. The Meeting was but—thinly attended. Mr. J. Jor4Es, a little after one o'clock, proposed that Mr:Moat:l4N should be called to the Chair which was put, and carried in the affirmative unanimously. The CHAIENIAN said; they were met to consider the progress made in the settlement of the Peruvian Loan. He should not detain them, but called on Mr. EATHOPE to explain the objects of the Meeting. Mr. EAsTriOpE said, it had been telt proper to call a Meeting of the Subscribers to the Peruvian Loan. They had also thought it best to appoint a C omm i t t ee , t o re port toan adjourned Meeting the state of affairs, which would be better than entering into details at a Public Meeting. He asked if any one from Messrs. Everetts was prepared with any communication to the Meeting ? A Gentleman said, he was desired to announce that Messrs. Everett were prepared with a statement, which they would make to the CoMmittee to-morrow, andsthich would be - advantageous to the holders of these securities. Mr. EASTIIOPE read an extract of a letter from Mr. Kinder, which he considered gave up the call for an additional advance from the Bondholders on the 29th of September. - . A Committee of five of the holders of Peruvian Stock was then appointed to receive the communication of Messrs. Everett and Walker, and to report to a General Meeting of the Bondholders. • It was then resolved, on the motion of Mr. EASTHOPE, that Messrs. Fry, E:tsthope, J.Jones, Morgan, and Dris coll, should compose the Committee, on which the Meet ing adjourned till Friday, the 3d of October, to receive the Report of the Committee. INTERESTING CASE TO MANUFACTUR ERS. GLASGOW, SEPT. so. POWER Loorits.—The following case, which was de cided in the Borough Court on the 15th inst. is of con siderable importance to Steam Loom Manufacturers, and we believe has been the first decided since the late strike. Messrs. Alexander Brown and Co.'s engage ment with their workers was to give them either a fort night's wages or a fortnight's warning, which is cus tomary in the trade. One portion of their workers, namely, the dressers, having struck, the weavers were, in consequence, of no use, and the mill was shut up. The weavers brought their action against the Company for a fortnight's wages, and the following is the result: ELIZABETH tiVFARLANE O. ALEX. BROWN AND CO. The defendants being called, appeared, and stated that the plaintiff's claim was for two weeks' wages, during which their manufactory was stopped from working, owing to the recent strike, or combination, among the dressers; and that as-the proprietors of the manufactory could not controul or prevent the said combination, and the consequent stoppage of the ma chinery, the plaintiff must submit to the loss of wages, as the defendants had to submit to the loss of work for the said two weeks. The plaintiff answered, and contended that by the re gulations of the manufactory the masters were bound to give a fortnight's warning previous to turning off the workers, or to pay wages for that period. The Baillie having heard the parties at considerable _length. said he found it admitted that the machinery at whith the plaintiff was employed was stopped in conse quence of the combination among the dressers, fellow workers with the plaintiff; and decided, that the regu lation as to giving warning does not apply to the pre sent case,. and therefore assoilzies (acquits) the defend ants from the present claim and decern. Workmen have been within the last few days em ployed in Brighton, in pulling down what was once the Castle Ta vern. It is intended to erect a slumber of elegant houses on the site, and the rilld front Castle-square to the Steyne will be widened by about sixteen feet. The Spanish flocks of Merino sheep have been the whole summer in Estremadura, it not having been prac ticable to send them to the Pyiennees according to cus tom, in consequence of the entrance of foreign troops into Spain. But Estremadura has furnished them with sufficient pasturage, and water has not been wanted. This circumstance has given a new direction to the trade in wool, for instead of being sold at Bilboa and Santander, it has been sent to Lisbon and Oporto, on account of the English merchants. 'CORN LAWS.—Mr. CURWEN, at an Agricultural Meet ing in Cumberland, lately made the following candid acknowledgment :—" It would be in the recollection of the Meeting, that the last year he expressed himself dis satisfied with the alteration then proposed in regard to the Corn Laws; that he did not think the scale of averages proposed by persons in office was what it should be; in short, that he did not think the prices in tended to regulate importation quite high enough. From what had since occurred, he had been led to con: chide that he had at that time taken an erroneous view of the matter; for he now thought that the prices so fixed were more advantageous to all than those which he would have adopteJ, had his wishes been complied wall. He owed this candid acknowledgment to him self and the Meeting. Ile thought that Lard LONDON• DE It Y was right, and himself wrong—taking into con sideration the peculiar connection of this country with other countries." CVMOVS JUDGMENT.—A curious case, in which the Viceroy of Poland and a common gardener, who,e right to the share of 1000 crowns, the property of his de ceasea brother, is disputed, arc parties, was lately brought before the First Chamber of the Civil Court of the Seine. From the pleadings of the Advocate of the heirs of .Couasse, it appears that this latter, a Frenchman by birth, became chief valet de chambre to the Grand Do chess, and had acquired the confidence of the Grand 'Marshal of the Palace. lie married a Mademoiselle Glairfait, a servant of the Princess; very soon after wards he became a father, and then being unwell, was recommended to return to his native air . . He quitted Wariaw with his wife and new-born infant, and returned to Paris to breathe his last only a few days atter his ar rival. Some labouring people, his heirs, were about to divide amongst then) a thousand crowns, the principal .part of hi*prOpertr, when a mandate was interpo.ed in the name of the Viceroy of Poland, reclaiMing this sum as due to his It vat Highness, on account of money ad vanced to his valet de chambre at the time•ot his de parture from France. This reclamation was supported by an extract of the accounts of his treasurer, to which, it is said, the signature of Couasse was affixed. The Winn ordered that the accounts of the Viceroy should oe • presented on tlet 13th ; and it not, that the div:sion 5211 talo.placc.—Pat 1s ,Paper. • .• :.::_ Pits strsittilti NE EtAPE' tA4RiAttsl B.WittrtAKßß i new very fia.sized.hancl someCharrofi piliteAdari bipe, with gad mouldings, tastefully decorated and emblazoned with scroll ornaJ ments, occupying the whole of the sides; in the centre of the device is placed the Arnis and Crest of Mr. Witirra KER. in a pedestal, intermixed with gold, and encircled by rich crimson drapery,. and the emblems of Peace and Plenty ; 'underneath is the Rose, Thistle, and Shamrock, entwined.
