nion prevailed that he would appear some time in the course of the day. In the meantime there was another object of curiosity, namely, the whale which had been cast ashore at the Line-mouth.— Many went north to see it, hoping to meet the squa dron un their return. Sumbers also went south, to wards Sunderland. One steam-vessel went to Hartle pool, and the passengers in a boat going to Stinder- Liad,some time after, gave three cheers at sight of the smoke of the former, thinking that it proceeded from the packet accompanying the it qua. In 'the' afternoon the Judges went down to*Tynemouth in the Mayor's barge, and came up again in the Mayor's and Sheriffs carriages. While immense crowds of Newcastle people went to Shields in the hope of see ing the KING, many Shields people came up tci castle in the afternoon to see the Judges. Both, of course, were disappointed, and an amusing scene was reduced by their ridiculing each other as they passed 7lomeward-bound in the evening. We should men tion that one of the keels which went to see had its sail apparently dean washed. It had also colours and fourteen oars, the oarmen setting as they rowed. It was queerly observed that his MAJESTY could hardly see a better specimen of Newcastle, or a nobler 'sight than a good keel.—Yesterday (Sunday) the Churches were literally deserted. A zealous Missionary lifted up his voice, and preached on the high places. Crowds flocked round him, but the eyes of all were upon the ocean. In vain did the preacher exclaim (we give his words), " lam the King !—I bring you joy and peace!" SON G.—TeNE—AuN Langsyne.

Sir SAMUEL. was riding in the•Phaenix.Park, in company with Colonel Titoantost, when he was .seized with an apoplectic fit and fell dgad from his 'horse! He was put into a carriage, which happened to be passing at the moment, and conveyed to the Royal Hospital, where Surgeons REYNELL and M.AuLay, of the Royal Infirmary, were in imme diate attendance, and opened a vein in Sir SAMUEL'S left arm, and tried every means that professional skill and anxious seal for the recovery of. this distin guished General could dictate, but without effect. The vital spark unhappily was extinct. The body of 'Sir SAMUEL will be sent to England this day. General Fyatta'has been written to express to come to town, and take the command of the Army in this country, ad interim, he being the oldest General on the Irish Staff. By the death of Sir SAMUEL Amt. story a vacancy occurs in the Colonelcy of the 78th Regiment of Foot (Highlanders), now quartered in Carlow. Sir Snstuat. was as amiable in private life as he was distinguished in his professional career. Ilis death creates a blank in society, as well as in the military profession, which cannot soon be filled up. " Phoenix Park, Sunday, August 11, 1822.

(Signed) " HENRY WEBSTER, Captain and Aid•de•Camp.•' MISAPPLICATION OF THE FUND FOR THE RELIEF OP THR FROM THE DUBLIN JOURNAL OF MONDAY. " It was stated in the public prints, that the number of persons receiving aid, in the county of Mayo, from the Government and charitable funds, exceeded the whole number ascertained by the late census.— As it could scarcely be imagined that those Gentle men who composed the central and local Committees would either intentionally misapply the monies en trusted to them, or carelessly neglect their duty, it was surmised, that the census had not been accurately taken, and hence the number of inhabitants in Mayo far exceeded that returned by the enumerators. We could easily conjecture the cause of the following fact—namely, that relief was afforded to 311,400 persons, while the total amount of the population was not more than 297,000. It was quite evident to us, that the-Committees had been deceived by the claim ants, thousands of whom must have appeared under different names and disguises. Where the mass of misery so widely extended, it was to be expected that some degree of imposition would take place ; but when the Committee were in possession of the popu lation returns in each parish and barony, the dis crepancy of the number of applicants, and the number recorded by the census, ought at least to have ex cited suspicion, and induced a more strict investigation into the circumstances." • The Hon. F. CAVENDISH has addressed a letter to the Public on this subject, which certainly shews that there has not been such care and attention in the dis tribution of the- money, as has been bestowed in col lecting it : in short, that it has been a job, in which individuals have served themselves and their friends, out of a fund raised by exactions on the benevolence of the English, even to mulcting the poor soldier of his day s pay. Mr. CAVENDISHS letter is dated Castlebar, Au. gust 8. He says It is a fact, that potatoes sent for the relief of the poor of this town, were sold to persons in busi ness in this place at three-ponce per stone, and to the poor at four-pence; that while the poor of this town and vicinity were literally starving, a portion of those potatoes were sent to the Parish of Belcarra, for the use of the tenants of an estate over which the person to whom the potatoes were consigned is agent. It is a fact, that on a spot of around, not more than .from one to two acres, the private property of an indivi dual, a sum exceeding 121.50 has been expendedl— It is a fact, that certain families in this town in in dependent circumstances, for superintending works, &c. have 'received a considerable sum weekly out of the charitable fund, while there are numerous fami lies, equally competent, and in the deepest distress, who have not been employed. If the central Corn , mittee had thought tit to inform me they were about to make inquiry as to those complaints, I could have proved them to their satisfaction; but, as they have only sought information from the offenders, they were nut likely to come to any other conclusion than they have done. 'The Committee having concluded their inquiry, sent for me, and asked if I had any charge to prefer against the Local Committee ? I de livered in a written paper in the words following : _ Thursday morning, between five and six o'clock, l'ilAcolrit Anderson, a lamp lighter, being disappointed in his intention of leaving the Argyle steam-boat at Govan,leaped overboard at tin: Dinthouse, in order to swim ashore ; but, by the time he was within five yards of laud, he was overwhelmed. The steam boat stopped, and made every exertion to aid him, but without success, and the crew proceeded on their voyage without finding the body. GLasuovr, AUGUST 11.—FATAL ACCIDIENTo—Last night, about eleven r. se. the I lercules steam-boat, belonging to Glasgow, on Ler way front Greenock to Campbeltown, when off Greenock, b:ifortunately came in contact with, and run down, a boat or u !airy filled with poor people front the Highlands, on their nay to the southern districts to labour during the harvest. Out at forty-six persons on board the boat, only four escaped a watery grave—and one of these, a woman, was taken up in such an exhausted state, that she is since dead. One of the four un f :tunate survivors a man, has to mourn the loss of his wife, two daughters, and a son, by this fatal catastrophe. The steam boat had out lights, and also a proper watch, who repeatedly hailed the wherry; but, owing to some fatal inadvertence, or ; robably from not understanding English, the unfortunate boat continued her course till escape was impossible. The fatal aecii dent happened betweeen Gourock and the Clock Lighthouse. J.k.! Highland wherry was from Mull and Icohnkill. When site sunk, the cries of the poor people were distinctly beard front slwre; but the generous attempt to afford them relief proved unavailing. The Master, ALLAN M'lonts, and the other boat men, were among the sufferers. CUM.TONI:ICH, AUGUST 13.--FATAL EPTICT* OP LicTirrirG. —The awful effects of a thunder storm were experienced here yesterday. About five o'clock In the evening, the sky became suddenly obscured with dense clouds, from one of which, nearly vertical and highly electrified, issued an extremely vivid flash of ' I Li:inning, followed at an interval of about three seconds by a tremendous and lengthened peal of thunder : the electric fluid vruck the chimney of Mr. Voids house at Boit, about a mile from hence, passed through the roof and out of the doors and window, knocking down four persons in its progress; two, we ~re sorry to say, never to rise more.

W. if. Smith and Hughes were Secretaries, and Charles O'Malley, Esq. Treasurer, for having received large sums of money, intended fur the relief of the Poor, drawn from Private Subscriptions, from Government, from the London Tavern, Mansion House, Liverpool, and Belfast Committees, from his Grace the Archbishop of Tuam ; and, having so received the same, have not, during a period of five months which they have presided, rendered to any persnn an account of their disburse ments, although the Central Committee had appointed a Com mittee of Accounts, who, by public advertisement, in the Mayo Paper of the 25th July last, required Local Committees and individuals to tender their accounts on or before the 29th July, to be audited by them." This was my charge, which was deemed frivolous and vexatious. I called upon the Secretary and Treasurer, in the hearing of the Central Committee, to produce those accounts—they are not forthcoming; surely a Committee presiding for five months, in trusted with monies for the relief of the poor, de rived from various sources, should be able, :it a mo ment's notice, to produce their accounts. Have not each party who subscribe to those funds ts . undotibted right to know how their money IrsiibeetOistributed ? It those accounts should be ever produced, and the disbursements cot redly stated, I undertake to satisfy any rational mind, that the most shameful abuse has existed.

What is the fact? In place of six in family, she was only married within the year to a man of the name of Murphy, who was employed in the service of the Local Committee, at 2s. 6d. per day. Observe, the ticket was in her maiden name, a most palpable fraud; but it is deemed frivolous, because the fraud had been detected before meal had been issued. This Central Committee, whose duty it is to guard the Government (who provide the fund) against imposition, declined going into any other case but this one. I had pot read to them my list. I had not stated one single abuse I intended to prove except the one ; and, wlyile in perfect ignorance of the nature or extent of the cases of abuse I intended to adduce, they resolved unanimously they were all frivolous and vexatious! The Central Committee, who have been presiding for five or six weeks, have not as yet, as they informed, audited an account. I con fess I do not think that redounds much to their credit. Previous to their appointment, the relief issued to the county was about 30001. per week ; they have increased it to about 70001. while the population is 297,000, they extend relief to 311,400; the Union of Castlebar, in which this Committee pre side, contains, by_the parish books, about 1,500 fa milies, while 3000 families are returned as receiving relief. Are -not these fasts sufficient to rouse the attention of the Central Committee? Do'not they convey evidence of existing abuse? Is it not their duty to seek information ? They preside with their door closed : two police stationed at it, to prevent any person obtaining admittance, unless especially sent for. Persons have attended to afford information and prefer complaints. I could not obtain admittance. I have remonstrated with several Members of that Committee against this secret proceeding on a public question; they answered me, they obtained informa tion from Members of Local Committees. If there was a misapplication of that fund, which there is, is it likely the persons to whom it is confided would complain against themselves? I shall state a fact, that should impress the Central Committee with the necessity of seeking information from other persons besides those to whom they confide their fund :—A petition was, as I am informed, presented to the Cen tral Committee, on the 23d of July last, from the in habitants of the village of Kanturk, alleging they had been employed to cut a canal to convey water to a mill; that they had given seven days' work, and could only obtain payment for thefirst day. This petition was not answered. On the 50th, they prepared a se cond petition, which was delivered into the hand of the President by a Member of the Committee. These poor men have not, as they inform me, to this hour received redress or answer. " NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. - By an Act of Parliament recently passed, persons giving alms to beggars are liable to be bound over to prosecute the objects of their bounty. .. lays m Pooa.—.Yesterday Mr. Davis, the pass-master for the county of Middlesex, applied to the sitting Magistrate at Hat ton-garden for a warrant against an Irishwoman residing in his neighbourhood, under the following circumstances:—Mr. Davis stated that the preceding night he had 154 Irish poor in his 2 house, in order to be passed to Bristol and Liverpool, on their way to Ireland; 119 of which number he sent off that morning in five large travelling vans, and as the poor were getting into the vans the woman in question came mid began to harangue them in the Irish language, in order to stir them up to a state of mutiny, in consequence of which, many of them became re fractory, and refused to go. A great number of the town Irish assembled, to whom she particularly addressed herself, in order to excite them to rescue (as she said) her countrymen and women front his clutches, and many of the persons so assembled ap peared ready to lend their aid, so that be had recourse to the parish constables and others, to prevent a riot, and he finally succeeded in securing them in the vans, and escorting them out of town. On their way many of the poor were happy to be passed, as they declared they could not either get money or work since they cane to England. - The Magistrate told Mr. Davis he should be protected, and ordered the warrant immediately. Masur-La-Ronns Orescx.—Yesterday the Rev. Thos. Smith, of Garden House, Kentish Town, appeared before the sitting Magistrate, EDMUND Gramm, Esq. to prefer a complaint against a middle-aged, gentrxi-looking woman named Flowers, for abuse, and insulting expressions nude towards him. l'he complainant stated, that about nine o'clock on Tuesday evening, as he wai - passing along Oxford -street, the woman called after him, saying, " There goes the Bishop !" and made use of several base and vile expressions; he, however, proceeded with out noticing her for about twenty yards, but finding she conti nued her abuse, he became fearful of some personal violence, and gave her in charge to the watchman. The worthy Magistrate severely censured her on the impro priety of her conduct for abusing any person who happened to be a Clergyman, and asked if she was a married woman ? she replying in the affirmative, he instantly ordered her to find bail. The parties had not left the Office long before the Reverend Gentleman returned, and informed the Magistrate, that in con sequence of her husband begging hard for her forgiveness, he had• consented to an apology. The female was then brought before the Magistrate again, whn informed her that the Gentleman had most humanely con sented to allow her an indulgence of which she was by no means deserving.—'flee woman then curtsied, belied the Clergyman's pardon, and retired with her friends.

A day's amusement was held out yesterday to the sporttng world in the fight between Brown, called the Sprig o f Myrtle, who had fought his way into the upper rank of light Weights, and Stockton, a youth who had signalised himself also in the prize ring. It was Who should receive 100 sovereigns. Two hours elapsed before Brown was forthcoming, and it was re. ported that his patrician master had been killed in a duel at Brighton, and he could fight to order only. He however came, impelled by courage, as it was thought, but it was after a very gallant battle bad taken place between two brave men--.SmaU, Fitzroy butcher, and Green, a correct lad. 4ales and Cooper seconded Green, and Tons Junes and Hall officiated for Small. A fight of 50 minutes, in much cattiest, took place. It wan nothing but out and oat fighting, about Which the deep' Ones say they were bugled. The battle was contended With much obsti• nacy with all the //ping reports, and Small won it with much hard fatigue, and with a lasting receipt of manhood. THE GREAT FIGHT. This, from the Want of Brown, came on second, and it was an apology for fighting compared with the first battle. Nghteen rounds were contested skilfully, and at the winning game.— , Brown was not so good at our informant has seen him ; but one rare composition about him was, he fought to wig. He was overpowered by strength, and, although but In a few pounds of weight, throwing was against him. There was no murderous work in the combat, but Brown managed to stagnate blood upon the right peeper in the seventh round, and in the eleventh he tappet the claret (having scalped the forehead by a premeditated in cision in the ninth round), and the backers of Stockton were in the forlorn hope. He however continued the fight with much bravery until the finish of the eighteenth round, when one of those wrangles which have stopped the admirers of real manhood front attending such exhibitions took place. Spring and Josh. Hudson seconded Brown (the winner) and Bales and Tom Jones honoured Stockton with their immediate presence. Stockton was taken out of the ring by Pales under a most fal. lacious pretence,ahat Brown had bit his adversary's fingers.— " What business had your fingers in his mouth?" cried one. " Brown is an unfair fighter,•' sung out another. Another was ready enough to start another game, " That because a fellow in distress had Smilyield.lhar;miired a friend's prod, and had since become rigkleuu*, why shrid he be lagged." Riles, it seemed, asked his antagonist's umpire if it was not foul? and he'said he listened to the call of the ring, and thought it was, hut he soon retracted, and said he did t•.ot mean to do wrong. This umpire, it seems, was quite unknown to the ring. Mr. Jackson was not present, but his decisio►► will, no doubt, finally be, that Brown is entitled to receive the stake. He also knows that anything but hitting down, or taking up foul beneath the waistband of the breeches to throw, is anything but manhood, He knows also, as a Gentleman boxer, if, by any mistake, he was engaged in t a king his part, an antagonist was to put his fingers in his mash, be had a right to bite them off. But there was no biting here, nor anything in the shape of foul fighting. Stockton was beat, and that caused the row. Ilk hitting hand was lamed, and he was done sip. In fairness lirdwu•must have the money. At a Bacchanalian party, upon the return home, the Commis sary-General delivered his cpinion, and said, " if these wrangles took place, it was' enough to make young men dishonest; and, although he had lost his cult teeth twenty years, he must begin to be a rogue, to keep even with the people.' .
