WEYMOUTH, DECEMBER 9. yesterday evening, his Royal Highness the Duke gyms left Lulworth Castle for town. His Royal Hi g hness has enjoyed the diversions of the field every dayduring the week, and has been highly gratified on k i lling a great quantity of game. The shooting-party ist accompanied his Royal Highness consisted of-- um Yarntourh, the Speaker of the House of Commons, Mr. gnat, Mr. H. Baring, and Mr. Peel. The following is the account of the game killed the first three days (the weather very unfavourable): licoday, in one hour, 22 pheasants, 7 hares, 2 rabbits, and litsakoek. ihrsday-10 partridges, 47 pheasants, 41 hares, 42 rabbits, .i 3 woodcocks.

This makes, altogether, eight s, viz. two in London, two in Paris, one at Is, one at Weimar, one at Jena, and another t New York. We are happy to state, that the manufacturers of Troviblidge are at this time, and have been for seve -11 walls past, fully employed; in several of the ktones they work unusual hours. From the last census, it appears that the population of Trowbridge nearly 10.000, and that about 9,000 are nianufac taring labourers, the whole of whom, except the aged and sick, have now as much •work as they can do. Ibe poor-rates, in consequence, are low ; provis io n s also are very Cheap, and perhaps, on the whole, it was never better times with Trowbridge—that is, fur !belabouring class. The master manufacturer, how ever, complains, that from the extreme competition. he does not get a common per tentage on his capital; that be uses his machinery to prevent st from spoiling, and in order to keep his connections. W. B. WRIGHTsow, Esq. of Hutton Ilonville, at the late receipt of his Lady-day tents, in Northumber land, returned his tenants 20 per cent. and 10 per cent at the preceding rent day. J. H. LEIGH, Esq. M.P. for Winchester, has made a further reduction of 10 per cent. on the rents of his Warwickshire estates. WILLIAM HOUGHAM, Esq. at his annual rent din- SO on Thursday last, made a deduction of 20 per ma. on his pasture lands, and 10 per cent. on his hop grounds, which, added to the allowance of last year, makes a deduction of 25 per cent. G. USBORNE, Esq. of Staplehurst, kindly threw off boa 10 to 15 per cent. on the rent of his respective "Mb, due at Michaelmas last. !

ASSASSINATION.-.—Mr. ANTIiONY Rows; who was shot by some villains on his way from Truro to Red nth, on the evening of Wednesday se'nnight, died of the wound he then received, on Tuesday last, leaving a widow and six children to lament his untimely fate. An Inquest was held on the body on Wednesday, when the following particulars were stated:—The villain by whom he was shot passed him cn the road at a quick pace, and as he came close to him, Mr. Rowse had an opportunity of remarking his dress, which was slight-coloured shooting jacket, and small clothes. As soon as he had passed, he turned and fired, but West . have instantly perceived the approach of Mr. Vlit.ttaras, who was coming towards the place with a lantern and candle, and was not one hundred yards from the spot when the shot was fired, but whose ap proach was concealed from the observation of the villain by a turning in the road and a large shaft burrow, and on whose appearance the murderer made oL Mr. Rowses horse did not set off when the shot Was fired, and Mr. WILLIAMS found him near the spot where he received the fatal wound. The Jury returned a verdict of Wilful Murder against some Person or persons unknown. At the time the attack was made Mr. RowsE had twenty-sir pounds in cash and notes about him.

Yesterday there was a Meeting of the Committee of the Stock Exchange, for the purpose of doing away with the Puts and Calls, and a Resolution was passed, that any Member guilty of this offence should be expelled the House. This has given um brage to a number of the Members, and it is gene- ally reported that a new Stock Exchange will be erected, and a large sum is already subscribed. — Sir JOHN BARNARD s Act is to be hung up in the Stock Exchange. A vessel from Corunna, after a short passage, re ports, that a popular meeting had assembled in a large room belonging to aconvent there, for the pur pose of deliberating on an Address tceihe KtNa, si milar to the one sent from Cadis,when, owing to the immense concourse on the occasion, the floor of the room sunk down with a tremendous crash. Seven persons were killed, twenty severely hurt, and many others much bruised. The Board of Admiralty have been employed I'lll the last week in inspecting the Dock-yards at Chat-' ham and Sheerness, for the purpose of making such further reductions among the persons employed, as may be deemed practicable. The Dock-yards on foreign stations are also to be reduced in their several establishments. The Commissioners now sitting, under the autho rity of Parliament, for the investigation of the entire fiscal system of Ireland in all its branches, are, after a patient and protracted inquiry, and an examination of persons hostile to the repeal of Duties (what are called the Irish Protecting Duties), convinced of the necessity of throwing open the markets of the sister kingdoms to each other reciprocally. The plan of retrenchment which has been com menced in other departments, will, it is stated, also be carried into effect, at the end of the present year, in all the offices connected with the Navy. A great number of clerks will retire on various stipends, and it is said that the reductions are not to be confined to inferior persons, but that some of the Commissioners are likewise to give up their situations, both at the Navy and Victualling Boards.

The destructive element spread strith such rapidity that in lets than an hour the buildings, as far as the centre gate, embracing a range of about 70 feet in length, were enveloped in flames, the roof faUing progressively as the bre advanced.

We scarcely judged it necessary to allude to the ridiculous rumours and false alarms which have been put into circulation regarding the safety of the city ; but we own we were astonished when we heard that the barriers were to be re-erected. We were thoroughly convinced that the Executive was imposed upon by' false information. We have now to state, and we du it with pleasure, that counter-orders have been sent to the contractors. Preparations were certainly made for putting the barriers up; but the work is sus pended. The alarm, of course, has nearly subsided ; these never was occa s ion for any. `, DUBLIN EVENING POST OFFICE.—Team o'Gr.oca. 64 TIPPERARY. " By a private letter just received from the neigh bourhood of Cashel, we are sorry to find that the house of Mr. Dwyga, of Coolnissane, was attacked on the night of the 2d inst. and robbed of arms ; the same party afterwards attacked the Tythe Proctor's house, but not getting his books, departed. They then vi sited a farmer s, of the name of TRACY, whose arms they took : they were offered money, but refused it. We have another communication before us, which denies, in the most positive manner, that the county of Limerick infection had exhibited itself in the pas ish of Sollobead, in this county ; or that any unlawful oaths had been administered, as stated in this paper, on the authoriey of a provincial journal. " Our information is derived from known corres pondents. Chevaux-de-frize are erecting on those parts of the roof of the • Bank that communicate with other buildings." The house of WILLIAM WISSLZY, near Adare, was attacked a few nights ago, and the windows broken, but he bad no arms. AFFAIR AT NENAGIL The annexed is from Saunders' News-Letter: 46 The Nenagh Yeomanry had been embodied on last Sunday fortnight ; part of them mount guard upon the jail in that town, and on Sunday night last, at a few minutes after seven o'clock, six or seven per sons came up, and one of them asked the sentinel, What is it a clock ?' on being told the hour, he sud denly turned round, and grasped the sentinel by the neck, a second fellow pinioned his arms, and a third seized his musket ; the sentinel, thus assaulted, ex claimed for assistance, and cried, ' Murder I' when three of the guard promrtly came to his relief, and fired upon tilt assailants; the arm of one fellow, about the elbow, was, in consequence, dreadfully shattered by a musket-ball, and he and another of the party were secured and lodged in custody ; the remainder escaped. We have learned that two of them have been wounded,one on the side of the head - , the other in the hand. " Doctor DEMPSTER and Surgeon O'LEARY were called on to attend the prisoner, and found it neces sary to amputate his arm." The following account of this affair is taken from Carrick's Pest of this morning 4 Nximon, Dsc. 6, 1821. " I had no time yesterday to give you the particu lars of the attack made . by the Yeomen upon the country people in this town. It was a most wanton piece of business ; there were about five of the coun try people retutning home at seven o'clock at night ; as they passed one of the Yeomen they asked what o'clock it was? The Yeoman gave an offensive answer; this produced a retort from the countrymen; who, however, continued their way onward. But the Yeo man overhearing some words as they were going off, which were not vety complimentary to the corps,* called nut the guard. composed of his comrades; they immediately pursued the country people as far as the Pound,when they fired upon them, the shots took effect. A boy, named John Ryan, was shot in the elbow ; a son of Michael Walsh, of Beleen, was hit in the finger, and a third boy was wounded slightly on the hip.— The boy Ryan has had his arm amputated ; he is under cure in a house in Pound•street, but not as a prisoner; from which k would appear that he is charged with no crime.* • The letter gives the exact words used by both parties, but which we do not think it necessary to repsat.—lienvoa. U LSTER. ARMAGH, Dec. 7.—We regret to state, that on Tuesday last our Market was disturbed by a strong disposition to riot, which at one period threatened consequences of a serious nature. The passwords of " No Taxes," " No Tithes," " No Rents," alluring presages for a turbulent and unthinking peasantry, have kindled in the South of Ireland the flames of petty rebellion, which it may be difficult to extin guish ; that of " No Tolls," a good precursor for the others, was on that day sounded in our Market, and, as was very natural, an unreflecting assemblage of the peasantry, who conceived it might save from their pockets a penny, re-echoed the fascinating but insidious sounds. One person, thus probably induced to refuse paying an impost,sanctioned by law and custom, ofone penny, had his car seized by one of the City Officers. A scuffle ensued, and a strong disposition to riot was immediately manifested: the presence of our Chief Magistrate was required, who immediately repaired to the scene of riot, Market-street; but, as must al ways be the result when the laws are illegally and violently resisted, his authority was set at nought, and he and several Gentlemen who accompanied him, or were drawn to the ground to render their assistance, if necessary, were jostled about as if totally destitute of authority or unentitled to respect. It therefore became necessary to call on the military, three parties of which were in succession brought to the spot; but without any necessity for their interfering An individual above the lower ranks in life,who ought consequently to have been aware of the impropriety of such conduct, and whose hostility, we are told, to the Toll-system has procured for him some degree of celebrity in this part of the Kingdom, was, we under. stand, committed to prison by our Chief Magistrate, on a charge of exciting and joining in a riot , but was liberated on bail the next morning. He will, of course, abide his trial at the next Quarter Sessions, and, if guilty, have the salutary lesson taught to him, that the laws of the country are sufficiently strong in then:- selves to enforce a proper degree of respect, and to pre vent their violation with impunity.—Armagh Vasa/tea: At a sale of farming stock lately, near Poole, a quantity of wheat in the straw, yielding .50 bushels, was sold for £B, at 2s. 741. per bushel. GLASGOW, DECEMBER 8. Monday evening, the first series of Concerts, called the Musical Festival, took place in the Theatre.— Though the doors were thrown open nearly two hours before the performances commenced, a large assent. blage had previously collected, and the pressure was great, but of the most orderly kind. A move magnificent toast ensemble than that at the Theatre on Wednesday night, cannot well be ima gined—the House was brilliantly illuminated—the Orchestra fitted up in a very tasteful and appropriate style--and a finer assemblage, or a greater display of beauty and fashion, was never witnessed in this city. Among the strangers who have already appeared at our Festival, were— Lady Augusta Clavering, Lord Archibald Hamilton, Lord and Lady John Campbell, Lord and Lady Kelburne, Hon. Ad miral Fleming and Lady, Sir William and Lady Maxwell, of Calderwood ; Sir William blanker& Napier, Mr. Maxwell, jun. of Pollak, M.P. and Miss Maxwell; Mr. Campbell, of Blythe wood, M.P. Mr. and Mrs. Hamilton, jun. of Dalzell, and party, Mr. and Mrs. Alezander, of Southbar, and party ; Captain Smollet, of Bonhill, Mr. liorroeks, of Tillybewan Castle, Mr. Napier, of Blackstone, &c. &e. 'Thursday night there was a brilliant Assembly; the LORD PROVOST, Director; Mrs. DOUGLAS, of lllythswood-place, Lady Directress. The crowd and pressure at the Musical Festival was, if possible, still greater last night than on any preceding evenings. A great many Ladies lost their gloves, hair ornaments, reticules, &c. Wednesday night, a musical knight of the last, who had concealed himself between the ceiling and the slates, over the gallery, through the day, wishing to hear Madame CA TAL A mfir nothing, was discovered by part of the plaster falling, to the considerable alarm of the House, and conducted to the Police•office, and ultimately sent to Bride well for sixty days! The action of Mr. GIBSON against STEVENSON and others, Printer, Editor, &c. of the Beacon Newspaper, came on in the Court of Session, at Edinburgh, on Thursday last, when it was remitted to the Jury Court.—The cause GIBSON O. the LORD ADVOCATE, &c. securities in a bond of credit for the Beacon, came on next, when Mr. MACKENZIE and Mr. THOM.. SON were heard as Counsel for the defendants, and Mr. MONCRIEWIP and Mr. CRANSTOUN lot- the plain tiff. The JUDOE (Lord ALLOWAY) delayed judgment till the meeting of the Court on Friday, when his Lordship pronounced his decision, finding the action relevant, and made the usual remit to the Jury Court. The next case in the roll was that at the instance Of Mr. STUART, against Messrs. ALEXANDER and BORTHWICK, printers of the Glasgow Sentinel news paper, and Mr. DAVID ROBERTSON, news-agent in Edinburgh, and as such agent for that paper. Mr. CLERK, Counsel for Mr. STUART, having passed from that action so far as respected Mr. ROBERTSON, and agreed to a decree of absolvitor with expenses in his favour, the LORD ORDINARY also found this case re levant, and remitted it to the Jury Court. POLICE COURT, PAISLEY—Friday se'nnight a num ber of journeymen tailJrs were brought before one of the Dailies of Paisley, charged with illegal combination for the purpose of raising theirwages. After bearing Prima JAME, Esq. writer in Paisley, in behalf of the defenders, the combination was found proven, and they were severally fined and admonished. MRS. SARAH Dorm—The immense wealth which this extraordinary woman died possessed of has na turally caused considerable alacrity, and a good deal of anticipation, among all who think themselve, in any degree entitled to be her heirs. No le.s than eight caveats have already been entered against let ters of administration beiog granted ; among which was one in behalf of his MAJESTY, by his Plocurator- General, Sir J. NICHOL. Other competito s fur the valuable prize have, however, started in the sister kingdom. Two families, living at Brown's-grove, near Castletown Roche, in the county of Cork, have put forward their claim to the property, as nephews and nieces of the deceased Lady. MELANCHOLY CracustaTANcE.---Wednesday last, Mr. TOWERS, a surgeon of Kendal, attended his wife, her mother, and another Lady, on a visit. When they returned, he deliberately walked into another room, and brought from it a double-barrelled pistol, with which he shot his wife through the head, who immediately fell down and expired. He then placed the pistol to his own head and fired ; but, although he fractured his skull, he is likely to recover. An Inquest sat on Thursday afternoon on the body of Mrs. TOWERS, and returned a verdict of—Wilful Murder against the husband. The individuals con cerned were both in the prime of life, and highly respectable. It is supposed that the unfortunate husband committed the fatal act in a state of tem porary derangement. The town is agitated beyond measure by this tragical event. FATAL ACCIDENTS. —Wednesday, in the afternoon, as Mr. David Brook, a carpenter, at Thorp, was re turning home from Leeds on the rail-way towards Middleton, having elevated his umbrella to prevent the sleet beating in his face, a number of coal-wag gons, drawn by the loco-motive machine, came upon him unobserved, and passing over his lower extremitiesmangled his legs and thighs in so dread ful a manner, that he died in the Infirmary in the course of the same night. The deceased has left a widow and six children.—A still more terrible accident occurred at Lofthouse on the following day, by which four individuals lost their lives.— It appears that early in the morning of that day four persons were descending in a curve into a coal-pit, when the rope giving way, they were all precipitated to the bottom, and two of them killed on the spot; — the two others, one a boy about sixteen and the other twelve years of age, were removed to the Leeds Ge neral Infirmary, where one of them died immediately on his arrival, and the other within half an hour al. terwards. The names of the deceased are, George Hould, a boy about sixteen years of age, and. Hould, his father ; a young man whose name we have not heard; and Joseph Farrar,- a boy about twelve years of age.—The same day, Thomas Salt, foreman to Messrs. Brown and Co. shear-grinders, at the Crown-point, in this place, got entangled in one of the fly-wheels, and was literally cut in two. The de ceased was a steady worthy man, and had been in his masters employment upwards of six years.—Leeds Mercury.
