It has been arranged that the Park will be illuminated on Christmas night for the first time with gas. The effeet.will be most resplendent. COAX, Drx. 15.—We believe we shall be found correct in stating, that a very warm conversation took place on Monday, at a Meeting of Magistrates held inthe town of Skibbereen, between two Nob lemen of this county, who had long been on terms of the most friendly intercourse, and who, it was believed, gene rallv concurred in political sentiments. Th e occasion -• • of this difference was a Meeting called or counte !aced by one of the Noble Lords, at which it was emended to recommend an application to be made to overnment to eatend the Peace Preservation Act to that district ; to, or upon, which Meeting the other Noble Lord was net invited,or consulted, and waved at it while it was sitting, when the conversation oc-' caned to which we have alluded, and which had led tea belief that a disagreeable alternative would ensue. Tne PAMPULZTEEEtr—The last Number of that oselul publication the pamphleteer contain', among other pieces, the Essay on the Piedmoatese Revolu tion, by Count Santa Rosa, and the Letters of the Emperor Joseph. It is doing a most valuable service to the historian and man of letters, to preserve fugi tive sea ks of this kind, which ar e frequently flung aside by the common reader, on account of their un pretending appearance when the topics of which they treat have lost their immediate and temporary tnte sect; thonh in fact it is from such temporary docu ments, and from them alone, that future ages will he able to form a correct idea of the past. ; 01 THE SOCIETY OF SCIIOOLMASTERS. The Society of Schoolmasters yesterday held their Annual Dinner at the Crown and Anchor, Strand. The object of this Soci!ty is to relieve distressed Schoolmaster; and Ushers, and their Widows and Orphans ; and that laudable object is carried into effect under the direction and government of a Pa tron, Presidents, Vice-Pre,idents, and a Committee. The Institution has subsisted for 27 years. The pos sibility of the funds of this Charity being applied to assist unworthy persons is removed, by obliging every applicant to produce a certificate of an are— proachable life. At five o'clock, a considerable number of Gentle men had assembled in the Room, and dinner having been announced, it was proposed and unanimously 1 , carried, that Dr. VALPY (in the absence of the Duke', of SUSSEX, who it was expected would preside) should take the Chair. The party then sit down to an ex cellent dinner. Th, cloth being removed, Non No6is Dmnine was sung by Messrs. Dignum, Clarke, and Golden; after which, The CHAIRMAN begged to propose a toast, which he was sure would be received with the warmest en thuiasm by all present. He would give " The health of the Patron of the Church—the Patron of Educa tion—the Head of the Constitution"—which, he said. he would give in the words of the first verse of Chevy Chase— " lion PROSPER Lona oua roma Kum !" This tat was received with loud applause, and drank with three times three.—Song, " GOD save the King."—The next toasts were, " Ile Duke of York and the Army."—Glee, " Ilow merrily we live who soldiers be." " The Duke of Clarence and the Navy."—Song, " Rule Britannia." D,-. ItUSSELL, after pronouncing a warm eulogium illton the character and virtues of their Royal Patron, proposed " Tire health of his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge."—This toast was received with loud applause.—Glee, " Glorious Apollo." The CHAIRMAN read a letter from the Duke of Sussex, in which his Royal Highness regretted that u navoi (fable circumstances prevented him from having the honour of presiding a' the Meeting. The worthy Chairman said, it was needless for him to state to the Gentlemen around him the merits and the virtues of the Duke of Sussex. He had always followed in the steps of his late much-lamented brother (the Duke of Ke.k), and his name was to be found at the head of :;!roost every public charity in the country. He Uey . geo, in conclusion to propose the health of his Roy al Highness the Duke of Sussex. Dr RUSSELL stated, that in obedience to the direc tions of their worthy Chairman, he had to offer to them the existing state of the funds of the Society, as well as to point out the changes which had recently taken place in the management of their affairs. The Reverend Gentleman, atter alluding to the manner in which charities were to be in f uture distributed, observed, that their late Treasurer (Dr. Kelly) had re signed, and that be (Dr. Russell) was appointed to that office—(Applause).—He thanked the Meeting for the encouragement nhich he received, as k would emtsolden hoot to replenish the coffers of the Society, so as to enable him to discharge the duties of his of fice—Wear' hear).—lt was a fact, that their late Treasurer had made no Report last year ; but bow s tood the case? Why, the fact was, that their late Treasurer had himself advanced more than £l2O, and when this sum was repaid, he (Dr. Russell) would have in his charge, as Treasurer, a sum of about £9 to £lO to go on with. Now, the Meeting would see that the funds must be recruited, or the Society could not go on. He could assure them, that he, as Treasurer, would advance no money out of his own purse, and, therefore,' Gentlemen must subscribe, in order to carry on the objects of the Society. In the course of the evening, several healths were proposed ; amon4 which were—the health of Dr. KELLY, the late Treasurer ' • the healths of the Rev. Dr. VA LPY, of the Rev. Mr. RUSSELL, of the Rev. Dr. BURNEY, and several other Gentlemen. Dr. VALPY, in returning thanks, pointed out the importance of the profession of Schoolmasters, in directing the moral, civil, literary, and religious prin ciples of the rising generation, and the influence of their precepts and example in society. He observed that though their services were universally acknow ledged, they were seldom adequately rewarded, but that they would derive an ample remuneration from the consciousness of having done their duty to their country and to the world. Dr. KELLY, in returning thanks, observed, that during his Treasurership (a period of more than twenty seven years), that Society had distributed more than £.25,000 in charity : he hoped that it would do as much, if not more, in the course of the next twenty seven years. Dr. Rosetta., in returning thanks, assured the Meeting, that he should always use his best endea vours to promote the interests of the Society. There was one fact which he, as Master of a large School, felt pleasure in stating, as it did credit to the School masters of this country. It had come within his own knowledge, that the boys sent from private to public Schools, were much better educated than they were ten years ago—(Applause).—This was solely to be at tributed to the improved , system of teaching now prac tised in this country. The Rev. Mr. WILLIAMS pointed out, in clear and forcible terms, the benefits of universal education, and concluded by proposing as a toast, "The advancement Of Education all over the world"—(Applause). Several other toasts were given and loudly applauded. In the course of the evening, several pleasing songs were sung by the professional singers, whose names we have already mentione d. But the chief attraction 1 icsf the evening was Mr. Yates. This Gentleman re cited a parody upon the " Seven Ages," called the 41 Seven Stages of an Action." In this he gave the most inimitable imitations (if we may use the term) of Kemble, Young, Braham, Mathews, Mundell, Kean, &c. and was loudly applauded. He was , , equally successful hi 41 Bartlemy Fair, " fur which he gave imitations of all the principal eatrical per formers now before the Public. The party did not separate until a late hour, and the hilarity and good-humour prevailed. highest Lord HOLLAND gave a dinner to a select party .yesterday, in Old Burlington-street• The Earl of HARRINGTON entertained a party of Military Gentlemen to dinner yesterday, at his house is the Stable-yard, St. James's. THE ARMY. The s:Sti Regiment embarked on the I?ti instant, at Cork, on board the Ocean, London, Regulus, and Thomas and Mary, trangports, for Jam a ica, to relieve the Seth Font, which will re turn home in the above vessels from that island.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. The Lady Lushlngtoa, from London and Madras to Bengal, was lost near Vigapatain, early in August—Fourteen of the` crew and passengers drowned. Mr. Woauss, Mr. Wvcay. and Mr. DOCGAN, who were passengers, left her at Madras, and have arrived at Calcutta. The Prospect, Hut.r., from Kiel to Hull ; and Concordia, with timber, &c. are totally lost near Strom. tadt, with their crews The Union, JAIMOL of Kincardine from Petersburgh to London, put into Copenhagen about the 7th instant, in a very leaky state, and would be obliged to discharge great part of her cargo. The Union, Wriassuas, from Riga to Londonderry, ran is shore near Dragoe previous to the 11th instant. The Concord, from Riga to London, driven on shore at Bon► holm the Ist instant, has got off, after throwing part of her cargo overboard, and been carried into harbour. The brig Kett, LIND?, from Newcastle to Copenhagen, was lost the 14th instant, near the Screw. POIRTIMODTH, Dec. 20.—The wind, this morning, was N.B. and some of the outward-bound got under weigh ; but it again . _ _ shifted to the S.F. when they can; to anchor. Came into har bour, MA Majesty's ships Gaassmaersa and ONTARIO. Arrived, his Majesty's cutter gums., from a cruise. Sailed, the CAMe- LRON cutter, on a cruise. YARMOUTH, Dee. 20.—Arrived the London, MOCIAT, from Harnburgh, in company with several others, having been six weeks on their passage. LIVIRPOOI., Dec. 19.—Wind W.N.W.—Arrived the George Guthrie, from Bahia—sailed 28th Oct. Several vessels have put back. Dux, Dec. 20.—Wind S.W. moderate.—The Juliana East Indianian, Captain Oun.vre; the William and Mary, WORTS • and Tobago, Werricost.artn, have sailed fur the River. The Atalanta and the Prince Leopold, with several more ships from the River, are this evening turning into the Downs.—The out ward-bound still remain. DOTER, Dec. 19.—The oldest seaman at this port can hardly remember such a succession of tempestuous weather as has been experienced on this coast for two months past. On Sunday and Monday last it blew a strong gale from S. S.W. and the mouth of our harbour was traversed by a shingle or beach, nearly equal to the elevation of our Southern Pier—this, by great exertion, has been sufficiently removed to-day, to enable the packets to sail again to-morrow. Yesterday, however, Mr. Lassemz ac-i eompanied by Lady LOUISA LAIIITON, Lady OMMILSTON Lady ORCT and Sir Rouse Wnson who had been detained some days at Payne's York Hotel, dete rmined to brave a strong wind and heavy swell, and embarked on board a small lug-sail boat, for Calais. The singularity of the attempt at this season of the year, attracted a great concourse of spectators to the beach to see them launched—the wind still freshened with the flood tide, and from the 100k -out, the little party were seen to reel their sails, and the sea to break right over their boat: the greatest anxiety was felt during the afternoon for their safety—from I which we were relieved only by the return of Captain Rocieas this day, from Calais, who reports their safe lauding, after a I rough passage of four hours. Dec. 20.—N0 arrivals. Our bar is getting better very fast ; small vessels can now go out and in. Sailed, the Lady Cockburn packet, with a Mail for France. Warearoan, Dec. 18.—Yesterday the wind was S.S.W. to S. by E. N.W. and S.W. all the day. Clear, with light showers, of rain and moderate breezes, all this day. At night heavy gales, which suddenly increasing, became, at eight r. as. a per fect storm, attended with thick darkness and heavy rain • the sea all in a foam, and the tide running in and out of the Docks quite irregular :—the storm continued, with unabated fury, for an hour and a half, during which time several houses were da maged, and many vessels driven on shore from their anchors, but we hope none of them are materially injured. AU the rest of the night there was dreadful thunder and lightning, with heavy squalls. A brig is on shore under the north point of Broom Hill ; and as the sea is so very heavy it is feared she will be lost. DUBLIN, Dec. 18 . — Nine o'Clock, r.u.—lt has blown a gale all day, and still continues. Aastvzo—At Gibraltar, the Vrow Anna, Detter, from Rot terdam. At Demerara, Industry, Morrison, from Belfast.

Cleared Outwards: Eliza, for Cork ; Brothers, for Ilamburgh • Lord Crapstoan, for Jamaica; San Antonio, for Coruuna ; T ula, for Gibraltar. The following is a description of the Vase to be presented to Captain PARRY, in pursuance of the Resolutions of a Public Meeting of the Inhabitants of Bath: The form is that of the celebtated WarwickVase,but divested of the Bacchanalian emblems, and decorated with others more appropriate to the nature of the service intended to be comme morated. The singularly bold and beautiful form of the handles is preserved ; but the vine, with its tendrils and clusters, is ex changed for Abe Britishoak, with its foliage and acorns, forming a rich wreath immediately under the lip of the vessel. On a pro jection of the handles Is suspended the laurel wreath of triumph. The masks and tiger's-skin of the original are entirely omitted, and the bulrush is intermixed with the lotus. The Vase is supported by four dolphins ; and the plinth is covered with shells and coral, in imitation of a sea-shore. The pedestal is mush enriched; and the olive wreath is in troduced, illustrative of the pacific nature of the enterprise. To avoid the heaviness resulting from a square form of the pedestal, it has been made octagonal, and on the four smaller sides are trophies, composed of nautical scientific instruments, and of those implements used especially in the icy seas. The compass is in troduced in the one, and the globe in the other : each is sur mounted by the British Naval Crown. Two of the large sides of the pedestal contain chasings from Captain Pa tar's original drawings ; one representing the Hecui and GRIPICIL covered in for the winter ; and the other their situa tion in the neighbourhood of an iceberg. The third side contains Captain Pasav's arms. The fourth, the following iuscriptioa To WILLIAM EDWARD PARRY, Esquire, Commander in the Royal Navy, In commemoration of a Voyage of Discovery, Performed in his Majesty's ships HECLL and Games, under his command, ht the years 1819 and 1820; In which he effected a passage through Lancaster Sound into the Polar Sea, And having discovered many New Lands. And passed a Winter of Ten Months' duration, surrounded by Ice, in the Harbour of Melv il le Isl and , Returned to Great Britain with the loss of only one man; Thus carrying the British Flag Into Seas over which nu Ship had yet passed; And displaying. throughout this unprecedented undertaking, a degree of Nautical Science Intrepidity, Perseverance, and humanity, which has :tilected a lasting Honour on Himself, his Profession, and his Country, THIS VASE Is presented by several Inhabitants of Bath, his native city. w.ncvv.XlL AWFUL DzaTus.—Sunday evening last,while Mrs. Davis, a Lady of fortune, residing in Walworth, was in the act of taking a glass of porter at her supper, she suddenly fell down and elvited, without uttering a word, having previously been in good health.

Ramona's hounds ran a buck from Gayton, which af• forded a most excellent duce towards the sea-coast ; it took the sea and swam about ball a mile, when being observed, some passengers on board a ship, not knowing what it could be, pat out the boat, which frightened it on shore ; after this he started, apparently quite fresh, off for Snettisham, where be was taken. During this chace he crossed the river at Rising, where the water was very deep, and seven of the field swam across. TROTTING bIATCHE& The money, 500 guineas a-side, is all staked for two of the fastest horses in England to go against each other, four miles, on the 14th of January.

Mr. Firt.utes to carry 11 stone, and Mr. Drava to pick all Eng land, and carry 12 stone. PEDESTRIANISM. Mr. West, the descendant of the great pedestrian, and parish clerk of Old Windsor, started from St. George's-fields on Wed nesday, to go sixty miles per day for ten successive days, hack ing himself for 200 guineas. This undertaking has been com pleted, hat never anything like it at this season of the year, and betting is three to one against it, as he has engaged to go straight , out. He would touch Winchester yesterday. Yesterday morning, Mr. F. Durrav, a Gentleman of fortune residing at the worst end of the town, started, for a wager of 100 sovereigns, to perform five miles within half an hour. 'I he en gagement was entered into a few days since at a celebrated sport. ing house in St. James's -street; and the unfavourable state'of the weather being considered, time was backed at odds of six and seven to four. The spot chosen was a mile on the Edge• ware-road. Mr. Derrav commenced his undertaking precisely at nine o'clock, disposing of the distance in the following order : lit mile in 5 min. 20 sec. 24 5 16 3d 6 0 4th 6 9 sth 6 0 28 45 Whining by one minute and 15 seconds : the pedestrian stopped once to take refreshment, and did not appear much fatigued. The weather being by no means favourable, it is considered an extraordinary feat, and considerable sums of money have changed owners on the occasion. Specimen of the Pun Annoying.—OXßEßßY, in Life in London, gets a box-o'-th'-ear, upon which he says, 41 Now am I a pickled donkey—l am au-salted r THE OPERA.—Yesterday the first private rehearsal of the vocal corps of the King's Theatre took place. The musical selections were from the new Opera of Picciet ; and, if we may offer an opinion from such a partial display, we should augur most favourably of the success of the ensuing season. Madame CAM PORES', who has much improved in personal appear ante, retains all her former sweetness of tame and re finement of style, so peculiar to the Italian school. Signor CARTON! (the new bass), gave a specimen of his talents, and displayed great compass and power of voice, added to considerable flexibility of counte nance, and versatility of genius,, combined with much apparent bonhommie. Astattooarri, we ate happy to perceive, has recovered his usual flow of spirits. Cuetoet (the first tenor), has arrived, and exhibited on this occasion, much to the admiration of those present. CHERUTTI (the second tenor), and several minor performers, were also there. The Directors present expressed themselves highly pleased with the new engagements. The Concert-room will be com pletely re-decorated in the most elegant style. The whole interior of the Theatre is undergoing renova- . tion, and will, before the opening, receive a general feature of improvement. ANOTHER £30,000 Sold in Shares by HAZARD.— The Ticket No. 18,900, drawn Yesterday a Prize of £30,000, was Sold in Shares by HAZARD and Co. who also Sold in Shares No. 16,427, a Prize 0f.£5000, drawn the Third Day. Yesterday morning early, the dwelling-house of CHRISTOPHER HALE, Esq. in Charles-street, Lam beth, was briAten into, and robbed of plate, &c. to the value of £lOO. Saturday afternoon the house of Mr. Cox, fruiterer, Green-walk, Lambeth, was entered by thieves, and plundered of £2O in money, and linen to the value of £lO. The robbery was committed in the day time, whilst Mr. and Mrs. Cos were gone to the 80-1 1 rough Market. The villains, not content with plun dering the premises, kindled a fire underneath the counter with some wood and dry herbs, by which part of the flooring was burnt ; and had the occu piers remained out half an hour longer, the whole: premises would have been consumed. The house of Mr. WiNeworro, of Thayer-terrace, in the Hampstead-road, was broken into on the even ing of Wednesday, by picking a lock at the kitchen door, and robbed of a dial of considerable value and two dozen of silver spoons.—Another burglary wa; committed on Tuesday night, or early on Wednes day morning, in Fordham's-row, in the Lower Bromp ton or Che sea-road. The thieves scaled a wall twelve feet in height, and got into' the kizchen where they regaled themselves, and afterwards cle ared the side board of plate. GIAbOOW, Die. 10.—There was a considerable number of stall-fed cattle, chiefly from Angus-shire, in the market yester day, for the fi rst time. There were about 340 fat beasts, and in consequence of such an extensive supply, there was a consider able decline In the prices. The very best .tote brought only a shade more than 9s. per stone, and by far the greater port sold between 7s. and Ss. a stone. Sheep sustained their prices, and there was a pretty fair supply. Yell ewes brought front 108. to 14s. and best black faced wedders front 145. to 18s. a beat'. • Cosa }II4:IIANGE.
