Yesterday morning early, a dustman having been found by some of his comrades in bed with another dustman's wife, he was immediately taken, sans cereatonie, to a neighbouring public house, and, before a whole bench of the fraternity, found guilty, and the usual sentence of the burning show was passed on him, and put in execution in the following manner :—The offender was placed astride on a small ladder, called " a Jacob," such as is used by nightmeti in their necessary avocation, with a coal , sack for a saddle ; there was a bunch of Christmas in his hat, and two large carrots, with their small ends upwards, in the front, to represent horns. In this manner he was mounted on the brawny shoulders of four of his companions, preceded by another dustman with a bell, proclaiming the crime he was guilty of: then followed eight mere of the dingy fraternity, two and two, their hats ornamented with bunches of holly, and a burning candle in front of each hat. Then came the culprit, as before-mentioned. He had a pot of porter in one hand, and a pipe of tobacco in the other, which he " ever and anon" stooped forward to light by one of the candles in the hats of his two front carriers. The rear of this ludicrous procession was brought up by a strong poise of other dustmen and coalheavert, with their &ilia, whose heads were Icsnfully decorated with the kiss-in citing misletoe. The procession set out from (harles-street, down Drury-lane, Great Queen-street, Wild-street, round Clare market, &c. followed by an immense crowd, which rendered the streets nearly impassable. There were two collectors, one on each side of the street, very active in collecting contributions among the spectators, to defray the expenses of the skew. They stopped at most of the public-houses in their way, where they quaffed off oceans of beer, ale, and gin, end then returned to their head-quarters in Charles-street, where the offence was drowned in•drink, and the parties passed the remainder of the day as happily as beer, gin, and tobacco could make them. BOXING. The last of the four boxing matches on Wednesday, and which for manhood never was exceeded, took play in Frampton pa rish, on Epping Forest, the basks having driven the cavalcade ' from Farefield, Herts. This match was for 30 guineas, between U'. Cu, a sawyer, and Hurry Miller, a coachman. The seconds were Appleby for Cox, and Mason for the :oachman. Seven ' tremendous rounds were fought in 26 minutes, as follows.: In the first round, on loosing each other's hands, the men im nsediately turned to for mischief, and excharged many heavy brows upon the head and body. Cox lost two teeth in the rally, and Millers right ogle was nearly closed. They separated and then renewed another mischievous rally at equal fighting, when both went down, weak. 2. A short rally, and Cox was floored by a right-handed blow on the side.-5 to 4on Miller. 3. The claret flew in streams from the heads of each, and the seconds wore the crimson hue; give and take was again the will of both, and another slaughtering round was fought, until both went down from distress. 4. In a short rally Miller was dropped by a hit on the breast, I which produced a loud groan, and the rattling of the hit was heard throughout the ring. 5. A minute elapsed in attituding, until some wind was fetched to relieve the )Wiping of both. The men at length turned to, and fought the best round in the battle; it laved eight minutes; and at least half-a-dozen hits were exchanged upon the head, and Cox was thrown. Miller's eye was closed, and the features of both were nearly invisible, as their heads were truly rrclargisereti. 6. A gay round in favour of Cox, whose adversary was too blind to hnd his object. He, however, floored him by a blow on the jaw. T. This round won Cox the fight, by placin. a left-handed hi: be:ow his adversary's chest, which double: him up, mil he could not come to time. With the heavy rain and the loss of blosil, the ring was in reality a slaughter-house in appearance. Sach a battle has very ,rattly been witnessed. manner: " We are not disposed to rest the claims of the sci ence of Conchology to public favour, altogether on the grounds which we have now stated their great beauty]. As objects of utility to man, shells are emi nently worthy of our notice. To the savage, shells furnish some of his most important instruments. They often answer all the purposes of a knife, and are extensively employed as a substitute for 'iron : with pieces of the more - solid bivalves he points his arrows, and forms his fish-hooks. The blue and white belts of the Indians of North America, as symbols of peace and amity in opposition to the war-hatchet, and by which the fate of nations is so often decided, are made of the Venus mercenaria • and the gorget of the chieftain's war-dress is formed of the pearl bearing muscle (mytilus margaritiferus). The mili tary horn of many African tribes is the murex Tri. tonis ' • the rare variety of which, with the voluti o ns reversed, is held sacred; and is used only by the high priests. The highest order of dignity, among the Friendly Islands, is the permission to wear the cypress aurantium, or orange cowry. And Lister relates that the inhabitants of Nicaragua fasten the ostreu vir ginica to a handle of wood, and use it as a spade to dig up the ground. Even when further advanced in civilization, the cznaliculated univalves sometimes constitute.the rustic lamp, while the larger scallops are employed by the dairy-maid to skim her milk and slice her butter. From the mother-of-pearl shell many useful and ornamental articles are fabricated; and calcined shells were formerly esteemed by phy sicians as absorbents; and are still regarded by the farmer as furnishing a valuable manure. The greater part of the lime used in America, for agricultural and architectural purposes, is made of calcined shells : the public streets of Christianstadt and Santa Crux are paved with the strombas gig as, or great screw shell ; and the town of Conchylion is entirely built of marine shells. The cyprera moncta, or money cowry, forms the current coin of many nations of India and Africa; and this covering or coat of an inconsiderable worm, stands at this day as the me dium of barter for the liberty of man ; a certain weight of them being given in exchange for a slave. The scholar needs not the reminiscence, that the suf frages of the ancient Athenians were delivered in, marked upon a shell: lie whom ungrateful Athens could expel, At all times just but when he signed the shell.' Pore. the record of which is still commemorated on the derivation of our terms testament and attestation. The word testae), or shell, is used for a musical in strument in poetry, the first lyre being said to have been made by straining strings over the shell of a tortoise. Less than a god they thought there could not dwell Within the hollow of that Fla, That'spoke so sweetly.' "The Hennes, or Mercury of the Egyptians, sur named Trismegiaus, or thrice illustrious, is reported by Apollodorus to have been the inventor of music, under the following circumstances :—The Nile hav ing overflowed its banks, and inundated the whole country of Egypt, on its return to its customary bounds left on the shores various dead animals, and among the rest a tortoise, the flesh of which being dried and wasted by the sun, nothing remained within the shell but nerves and cartilages, and these being tightened and'constricted by the drying heat, became sonorous. Mercury, walking along the banks of the river, happened to strike his foot against this shell, and was so pleased with the sound produced, that the idea of the lyre suggested itself to his imagina tion. The first instrument he constructed was in the form of a tortoise, and was strung with the dried sinews of dead animals. There is something beauti ful in this allegory, which leads us into a conception of the energetic powers of the human mind in the early ages of the world, thus directed to a discovery of the capabilities of Nature by the fingers of OM NIPOTENCE in the form of accident. this fanciful mode of accounting . for the origin of music is thus curiously alluded to in Brewer's Lingua : The lute was first devised In imitation of a tortoise' back, Whose sinews, parched by Apollo's beams, Echoed about the concave of the shell ; And seeing the shortest and smallest gave shrillest sound, They found out frets, where sweet diversity, Well touched by the skilful learned fingers, Roused so strange a multitude of chords. And the opinion many do confirm, Because testauto signifies a lute.' " Shells, as one of the agents of decomposition and gradual dissolution, will afford material assistance to the geologist when he examines into their rapid and astonishing powers of perforating and disuniting rocks of calcareous sandstone, limestone, marble, and even the hardest masses of granite and porphyry, wherever they come in contact with the ocean ; and by a com parative examination of the different stratifications of marine testaceous depositions, he mny eventually be led to some important conclusions as to the pro bable elevation of the waters of the general deluge. " From what has been adduced, it must now be obvious to our readers that shells are of considerable importance in the arts of life; but the animals con tained in these shells are of far greater value. As articles of food, shell-fish are extensively employed by the poor, and even hold a conspicuous place at the tables of the rich. In many places, they, in a great measure, support the children of our maritime population; and in the Western and Northern Islands of Scotland, have, in years of scarcity, prevented the death of thousands : besides affording employ ment to several thousands of persons, who are con stantly engaged in searching for shell-fish and bring ing them to market. Independently of the food which we thus obtain from testaceous bodies, they afford Dimwit. The Editor of the Letters of Lady Lepel Hervey, subjoins the following amusing note to a passage in one. of them, relating to the consternation pro duced in the Metropolis in 1750, by a slight shock of an earthquake : " The En g lish nation are peculiarly liable to epidemics of all sorts ; but that this earthquake mania s..ents to have been un usually rabid and contagious, the following'estract from the Newspapers of the 4th April will chew : " ' Incredible numbers of people, being under strong a pp re b m . sions that London and Westminster would be visited with ano ther and mere fatal earthquake, on this night, accordin g to the predictions of a crazy lifeguardsman, and because it would be just four weeks front the last shock, as that was from the first, left their houses, and walked in the fields or lay in boats all night; many people of fashion in the neighbouring villages at li their coaches till day-break ; others went to a greater distance; so that the roads were never more thronged, and lodgings were hardly to be procured at Windsor; so far, and even to their wits' end, had their supersitious fears or their guilty consciences driven them.' This g oing to Windsor to avoid the earthquake is like that story of the old Duchess of llolton, who, on Whiston's prophecy of the approaching destruction of the world, prudently resolved to go to China to escape so inconvenient an accident." A certain Sage of the Law, whose celebrity did not arise from his . tempeting judgment with mercy, on leaving the town where he had left eleven out of twelve prisoners for execution, was delayed by a young coach horse, which he was about to purchase, dropping down dead in the harness. " Strange acci dent, indeed !" exclaimed the Judge, pettishly. " Not at all, my Lord," replied the coachman, sulkily ; " I thought how it would be with the poor beast, . when I was told as how your Lordship had taken him upon trial l" Jay D'Eseatv.—Twe Jew Brokers, talking lately of the relative situation of this country and France, one observed, that a change of Ministers in England would be an excellent thing in a commercial point of view. " How so ?'' inquired the other. " Because." said he, " the EtAange would be in favour of this 'country." THE RF.PLY Comerrous.—There was not much wit, but there was sonic good humour, in the reply. GEORGE 11. made to a Lady, who, at the first Masque rade his M \JESTF was present at in England, invited him to chink a glass of wine at one of the beaufets ; he readily complied, and the Lady filling a bumper, said, " Here, Mask, the Pretender's health ;" then, - filling another glass, she presented it to the KING, who, receiving it with a smile, replied, " I chink with i all my heart to the health of all unfortunate Princes." LINEN.—M. NAUDE, Physician to Louts NHL says, that the ancients, though they had no linen to make paper, had a knowledge of hemp as an herb, but did not apply it to that purpose. RABELAIS, at the end of the third book, mentions hemp under the term, Pentaguellion, as a newly discovered plant, which had not been in use above a century. In the time of CHARLES VII. linen made of hemp was very scarce, and the Queen only had two shifts male of it. ORNITHOLOGY. — Mr. R. ROBINSON, of Derby, has a beautiful living specimen of that scarce bird, the Great-eared Owl, which is not so much inferior in size to the eagle.—lts head is very large, and is adorned with two erect tufts more than two inches long, which stand just above each eye ; its bill is strong, and much hooked ; its eyes large and of a bright yellow colour; the whole plumage is of a rusty brown, finely variegated with black and yellow lines ; its legs are remarkably strong, and covered to the claws with a thick close down. It is a young bird, and was taken in Russia. WIIALES.TOCSday, the 4th of December, there were driven ashore on the property of the Rev. Mr. WALTER TRAIL, of Westove, island' of Saila', Orkney, 161. whales, several of them measuring 40 feet in length. A STRANGE COINCIDENCE.—The late Countess of RESEOROUGH died at the same Hotel, at Florence, and equally as sudden as the Dowager Countess of Snaereseune, about two years back; and the re mains of the Countess of BEssottoucu were conveyed to Calais in the same hearse, an d that conveyed the body of the Dowager Countess of; SHAFTESBURY. THE BOND Paorenvy.—The Cheltenham Chronicle. says, " Our readers cannot have quite forgotten the extraordinary circumstance of the immense sum of money (1:100,000 at least) left, undevised, by Mrs. Sarah Bond, a few months since. The natural con sequence of such a circumstance has been the asset.• tion of various and very numerous claims of affinity in several parts of the country :—but we have some, and no small reason for believing, that the successful claimant is at this moment a gardener, residing and labouring in Cheltenham—his name is Evans, and if we be not misintermed, he is now in the employment of Tomlins, EA!. From what we have been enabled to glean, it appears that a professional Gen tleman, nearly connected with the family of Bond, of Marshfield, in endeavouring to trace the pedigree of the branch with which he was immediately con cerned, discovered the relationship of Gardener Evans, and, with a spirit which must reflect immortal hollow on his name, has undertaken the poor man's cause its so liberal a manner, as lb thing but the most peilect confideace of succets could warrant. Happy shall we be in recording that success." 1 ~i
