The brig Renown, WATT, from Que bec, which :arrived at Leith on the 13th instant, has brought two beavers, directed for the College; but it is to he regretted that, previous to the arrival of the vessel, one of them died. The ether is in good health, and has been forwarded to its destina tion. This, we believe, is the first importation of beavers into this country.

DREADFUL ACCIDENT AT HIGHGATE ARCHWAY.— Vox some time past vast numbers of workmen have been employed in erecting 39 almshouses near the Archway at Highgate, for the aged poor belonging to the Mercers' Company, and in order to complete the buildings, it was found expedient to remove an Immense pile of earth that was dug from the road at tie time the Archway was forming, and which has remained ever since standing on the side of the road. I-'or some days the navigators have been at work in conveying it away and shooting it in another part of the road. On Saturday morning last, whilst some of the excavators were waiting.for their turn to have their wheelbarrows filled by others a ho were digging af . the bottom of the vast pile, the upper part fell in with a tremendous crash, and five of the navigator. were buried under it. The groans of the sufferers a - ere distinctly heard by the other workmen, who, 'With surprising alacrity, set to work, and after digs, ging some time, succeeded in extricating tour of the sufferers alive. The fifth; an aged navigator, who acted as foreman, and who had been employed in the excavations at the Archway and the Regeat's Canal, ..was found almost crushed to atoms, yet still alive.— file unfortunate old man was taken on a shutter to the Archway Tavern, where he received every surgi cal aid that could be obtained, but be died soon after *am the injuries he sustained. si , ohlU4 ivrELLicENa.. . .

The scene Was unusually gay, particularly on Wednesday, when many thousands of persons, from the Noble Lord to the dirty pitman, were collected to witness the sport. The carriages were also uncommonly numerous, and asiliversified as the peo ple, varying from the splendid carriage and six to the humble one horse chaise, or in fact deseending still lower. The sport was good, though it scarcely repaid those who travelled far to see it. NORTHALLERTON MEETING -( CONCLUDED). OCTOBIOt 12.

That gentleman undertook ti , /hoot. with one of Its arms fastened to his body, and the assistance of a serval:: to load his 'fowling-pit-cc, ten brace of partridges, be tween the usual breakfast and dinner hours, which singular operation he easily accomplished within that period, besides having killed an additional brace and a half of these birds, and sve hare. AIATCH TO NOTTINGHAM AND BACK. Mr. Astamertre, the Scotch pedestrian, completed his task-to go from Loudon to Nottingham, and back, making a circuitous route of 1;60 miles, in four successive days. It has already been stated that he did half his distance in, good form, and started again, after sufficient rest, with four hours to spare. On the third day he took a training of 25 miles to breakfast, in imita dm! of the work the celebrated Captain BAICLAY CUt out for Cribb, previous to his renowned battle with Molyneux, at This tleton Gap. He ate his fowl comfortably, stretched, and made a start of 35 miles to dinner, oil rump of beef, at six o'clock in the evening. Refreshed as much as he wished, he took a walk 16 miles further, to a favourite quarter, where he had been before, and retired to rest tolerably well. He started again at three on Saturday morning, and did his fourth day's work. 55 miles., but not without great perseverance, before eleven at night. BOXERS. Spring has left his house, in Weymouth-street, and is going or gone into training at Brighton; Martin, it seems, prefers Reigate, • THEATRES. Datrev-LANE.—This splendid edifice wat last night again graced with a brilliant and crowded audience, to witness the performance of the Tragic Play of Pizarro, in which Mr. YOUNG sustained the character of Rolla. This Gentleman's reputation in the part has long been established : with the exception of the individual in whose hands the character originally was (Mr. KEMBLE), no one has ever approached near him. His figure, voice, action, and style of decla. mation, are all calculated to give effect to his deli neation of the Peruvian hero. His performance last night was exquisitely fine. Miss EDMISTON appeared for the first time this season—she resumed her pro fessional duties in the part of Elvira, with much suc cess. Mrs. %V. WEST'S Cora is a character peculiarly well suited to her powers. The Play is got up with much splendour of dress and scenery, and was ex tremely well received throughput.—Mr. WALLACK, the performer, who met with so serious an accident in America, was in one of the upper tiers of boxes. He looked much thinner than when he went to Ame rica, and is yet rather lame—he finds it requisite to have the aid of a stick to walk. COVENT-GARDEN. —The Sleep Walker was acted last night. YATES, as Somno, gave a variety of amusing I imitations with great correctness and much humour, and was most unanimously applauded. We are, how ever, sorry to add, his performance was a lame one, for he appeared to suffer much more from his late accident then when we saw him a few evenings ago in Rob Roy. The Beggar's Opera. was then repeated. Before the curtain drew up, Mr. CoNooa came for ward, and addressed the audience a 4 follows : " LADIES AND GENTLEMEN—I ant requested to state, that within these few hours, Miss PATON has been so severely intik. posed, that it was thought it would be impossible for her to have the honour of appearing before you . this evening. Nothing but a sense of the duty which she owes to the Public and to the Pro prietors, could have induced her to leave her apartment this evening. To fulfil that duty she has ventured to the Theatre in direct opposition to the advice of her Physician. Miss Pawn will come forward, but she fears it will not be in her power to exert herself as she could wish. The management have, therefore, desired me to step forward on her behalf, to solicit from you that Indulgence which has never beim withheld on such occasions, and Miss PArois throws herself on your kind candour and consideration." The Play then began, and Miss PATQN, though evidently suffering from ill health, acquitted herself in the most satisfactory maimer. When she sung her indisposition seemed no more, and the House listened with unmixed delight to those powerful but, delicate harmonies which this favour ite Syren is so competent to furnish. The new Melo Drama of Ali Pacha • lowed, and being played closer, the scenery moving with greater accuracy, and the Dramatis Persona being more alt fait than on the first night of repre sentation, the Piece went off with 'increased effect and success.--The House was well attended. • , Sir FRAN Gar denClS BURDETT visited Covent araen Theatre on Saturday evening, and appiared in excel lent health. " What a reform has Mr.ELLISTON effected here !" said a well-known dramatist, as he stood admiring the numerous mirrors with which the Saloon at Drary-lane Theatre is enriched. " Reform, do you call it ?" said a friend who was with him. " Why, yes, to be sure I do;' has he not made the Saloon a place of reflection, and that is what I never knew it before." " And it is strictly dramatic too," rej.ined bis friend, ogling some dashing belles who had just entered the Saloon ; " for it holds the mirror up to Nature!'" SINGULAR COINCIDENCES.Mr. SHERIDAN was the chief mourner at . Mr. GARRICK'S funeral. Mr. SHERIDAN'S Comedy of The School for Scandal was acted at Drury-lane Theatre the• evening Mrs. GAR. RICK died ; and on the same night, perhaps At the very moment when slie breathed her last, the ((Alm*. ing lines, written by GEORGE COLMAIi s Wert ..dell 7 vered from the Sage by Mr. TERRY: • 1 ' Alas! how vainly will cur tiunleen trig • • &rive with theold leviathans to vie!

That day'had now arrived, and he contended, that the three SpeJ cial Jurors formerly in attendance ought now to be taken, and the Jury to lie made - up of the tales. In: , stead of which the Coroner had summi dad an entirely new Specisil Jury.. The Cuter Junket over-ruled this objection, and the Officer proceeded to call over the list of Commod Jurors, in the usual way, to make up the Jury. Mi. SCARLETT said, he had here to make an objet lion. Those individuals v. Teo had now been sailed had been specially summoned by the:Coroner; w hereas, by Statute, the tales should be taken from impartial indi4 viduals, indifferent by-standers, persons supposed td be disinterested in the cause under consideration. Mr. GURNEY, in reply to the objection, contended; that the Coroner had -in this case pursued the correct course. The Sheriff's Panel had been objected to; arid a rule of Court had been directed to the Coroner; commanding him to cause twelve good and lawful men to attend as Jurors. The Coroner had Obeyed the rule, end•caused twelve men to attend. How' was the Coroner to do this, except by summoning them to attend ? His Learned Friend, if his objection could be sustained at all, should have objected to the rule of Court. As to his Learned Friend's interprez tation of impartial men-- , men indifferent tp the cause, being only to be found amongst the kr; standers—he mast differ from him entirely; he cons tended, that in the surrounding spectators the Co roner could only have found the partisans of one party or the other. The CHIEF JUSTICE overruled the objettibn. The Coroner was ordered to select and summon a Jury entirely independent of the Sheriff; how could he have insured such a return had he left it to chance The Coroner had adopted 4he only mode by which he could insure such a Jury as, by the rule of Court; he was ordered to summon. 'ft • Mr. TYNDALL then opened the pleadings. re defendant was indicted for the publication. of a false, scandalous, and malicious libel, intended to bring into contempt the King, the Constitution, and Laws of the Kingdom.. Mr. GURNEY proceeded to address the Jury, anti state the nature of the libel ; which,• he submitted, if ever a publication did deserve the name and descrip. tion given to it by his Learned Friend; the present, publication deserved it. The work was called a Poliz . tical Dictionary, and professed to he an explanation of certain words in the English language ; and was intended to vilify and libel the Government, the ltes ligion, the Church, the Law, and everything Valuable to society ; and to bring everything sacred into con‘ tempt. He would read a sew passage , : to the Jury frail the work itself, and leave the Jury to judge of thews For instance, he would t,e the ward Low : —•-. 14 Com mon Law. Just what a Jadge pleases, namely, MI flue Mr. Davison three times during the time he was making his defence; and fining Mr. Cletnent heavily for publishing Thistlewood's trial."—Now at the troll this person published this sentence, he knew very. well he was publishing what was not true ; he knew very well that the Common Law was not just what a Judge pleased. He knew very' well that Mr. Cie' went was not fined for publishing Thistlewood's trial; but that he was fined for publishing part of a trial; after an order had been made by the Court, that all the witnesses should be kept out of Court, that those which still remained unexamined might not know what those examined had deposed, and thereby U 1 forward the ends of justice. Mt. Clement chose to publish the order of the Court restraining the partial, publication, and, in the same Paper, in defiance of that order, to publish a part of the trial ; and the Court, in vindieation of it: own power, and in fur.; therance of justice, felt itseif called on to punish sucH a contempt of an order issued for the wisest purJ poses. The next, passage he would cite was, that wider the head " Constitution in Church and State— 'Religion without Piety—Law without Reason—, 'Aristocracy without Talent—King without Power Representatives without Constituents, and People without Subsistence." Such was the definition which this work gave of our Constitution in Church and State.—The King's Speech was represented to be . " A set or ungrammatical expressions, strung together by Ministers to suit their own purpose, for which they made the ring's name a cover, and for which the people•paid a million a year. The time would pro bably soon arrive when this ceremony, at the open: ing and closing of Parliament would be dispensed with; but if the country thereby saved f:1,000,000 per annum, it would not signify!'
