GREENLAND FISHERY. llas:cuacir, iutx 18.—The Iloffnunc, Schroeder, from the Greenland Fishery, arrived at Gluckstadt on the .16th inst. with 'MC seals. The Captain says he was obliged to hasten his de parture on account of the bad state of his ship, though the pro spect of the seal liAiery was extremely promising. He reports that he !puke an English and a French ship, from the Captains of which he had received good accounts of the fishery in general. The Captain of the first told him that there were only seven German ships that bad taken nothing a the latter stated the num ber at hire only, anions which was one of lketnen, one of Bruns buttell, and one of Geyenfleth; another Bremen ship had four teen fah, and one of Gluckstadt a full cargo. INFORMATION FOR SHIP CAPTAINS. IstA►D Of Can Barron, 13 , eu or MAT, 1823.—.4t frequently happens that a ship, bound from England to Quebec, strikes ►oundings on the banks•of Newfoundland, and shapes her course thence to pass between Cape North on this island, and Cape Key, Newfoundland, into St. Lawrence Gulf, without seeing land, which is hid in fog, and, unable to make a proper allowance for a current that sometimes runs a the rate of four miles an hoer, is swept away to the westward, and runs, with a leading wind, on our iron-bound shores, when her commander fancies be is steering directly into the Gulf; a misfortune that is too often announced by the bodies of the unhappy marines, and the fragments of their •essels, with which our shores are strewed. It should be made known, that there is a settlement In Aspray Bay, to the southward and westward of Cape North, as, for want of this information, many an unfortunate seaman has perished from cold and hunger after eseaping ship wreck; and that vessels of ary draught of water may safely anchor round the island, as wind and weather may require. The soundings, at half to three quarters of a mile, are seven and eight fathoms. On the south-east, as well as on the north west side of the island is a cove, where boats may land, and water be procured. The Pier-dues, at Margate, have fallen very short this season, owing to the unfavourable state of the weather, which has precluded hundreds from taking their annual excursion to that much frequented water ing place. By a recent estimation it is found, that up tothe 26th July, I 522, there were more persons landed at the Pier at Margate, by 2600, than have arrived up to a corresponding period in the present year. The new Piay of Presumption ; or, The Fate of Frankenstein, performing at the English Opera- House, has undergone some very judicious alterations, and is now very effective in the performance. It re quired no ordinary talents in the author to dramatise the story in the manner that he has done, and it shows on the whole a proof of his skill. Extract of a private letter from Paris, dated the 26th July The account of the affair of the Co losse, off Cadiz, given in the Courier Francais yester day, is correct as fir as it goes. An Officer who was on board at the time mentions the following partial- Las in a letter:—. , The Colosse, in pursuing a crowd of vessels that were carrying provisions into Cadiz, got aground on a shoal, and was thus exposed for several hours to the fire of one of the forts. The Co hue had 200 men killed and wounded, and is greatly damaged:—Letters from Marseilles state that the Spanish privateers are so numerous and enterprising that they have nearly ruined the commerce of the South of France, from Cape Nolit to Cape Creux. It is reckoned there are more than 100 privateers daily making prizes on the coast." BAYONNE., JULY 23.-=Pacapeluna is in a formida ble state of defence.; the whole of the fortifications are in the best condition. There are .500 pieces of canon mounted, of which twelve 36-pounders are Faced in the three ports, so as to command the pas and prevent all approach. The zeal of Don RAMON SANCHEZ SALVADOR, Governor of the for tress and of the province, cannot be sufficiently praised. The Political Chief VILLA,. an excellent patriot, deserves also the greatest eulogy. The gar rison comists of 3,500 men of the line and 800 tia ; amot.gst the latter are some companies of artil lery, who serve with as niuch regularity as the oldest. caanoniers. Constitutional Guerillas ate organizing I 1 the mountains, which will probably be put in movement without delay. Saturday night, about eleven o'clock, as a Leaman was returning home to:Deptford from Woolwich, near Charlton he was suddenly alarmed by a man saying, Seize him F' upon which a large dog flew at him. :Tye sailor having an umbrella with him, hit the dog sl violently on the head, that it stunned him.

' FRANKFORT, JULY 9.4. The apprehensions for the health of the Pope are much strengthened by the silence of all the Italian Papers, without exception, of which we have before us the Diario di Roma to th! 12th, and the Natizd del Giorno to the 10th inst. without being able to find a single word relative to the unfortunate acci dent that has befallen his Holiness. The Gazette of Venice of the 16th, contains an article from Rome of the 9th, which, however, speaks only of the solem nities on St. Peter's Day. BRUSSELS, JULY 28. • - The whole Catholic world has its attention on the capital of Christendom, and on the consequeoces that may result from the serious accident which his Holi ness has met with. It is astonishing that most of the Italian Journals are silent on so interesting a circum stance. The Milan Gazettes to the 16th, those of Florence to the 15th, and even the Diario di Roma to the 12 li, do not say a word on the subject. The latter, in its Number of the 12th, says that his Holiness, by a billet from the Secretary of State, has deigned to add Monseigneur Folecaldi to the Prelates of Iris Household. It is probable that these Papers have been enjoined silence, and that it is a measure of policy, the object of which is not very obvious.-- The Genoa Gazette seems not to have received this order : it says that there are still reasons to entertain fears on account of the fracture of the femur. On the other hand, the Universal Gazette of Lyons, in an article from. Rome, dated the 9th says, that though his Holiness was rather better on the 8:h in the evening, his life cannot be long preserved. The latest news we have is in a letter from Rome of the 12th, received at Paris, which says—... His Holiness was rather better, and people arc so eager for his recovery, that they begin to believe it. But a fall and a fracture at his age, the season of the year, and the-necessity for keeping his bed for some months when exercise is so necessary to him, all this tope- ther gives but too much ground for alarm." Already there are vague reports of interest making at Rome for the election of a new Pope, on the very probable case of the death of the venerable Pontiff, whose virtues and justice are admired by all Europe. A woman has been arrested, and committed to the prison of Douay, charged with the horrible crime of interring a child alive in the cemetery of that town. Her name is Victoire Herniquer, and she is not more than twenty-duce years of age. -She has al ready undergone two examinations. It appears that the mother had entrusted the child to her, with an allowance to place it in the hospital. A shocking accident occurred at Gravesend the beginning of this week. A Lady, who arrived there from London, missed her child, about two years and a half old, which was supposed to have been stolen by some gypsies, who had erected a tent in the neighbourhood, hut who were totally ignorant of the matter. On Tuesday evening, as water was raising from a well, the poor infant was brought up, and found dead in the bucket. The unfortunate mother, when apprised of it, became almost distracted. ' On Sunday, the 19th instant, more than a fourth part of the cieling of the Church of Kirkbean, joists and all, fairly gave way, damaging, or rather smashing to pieces in its fall, many of the seats and tables, and even mutilating the pulpit and pre , centor's desk. Most fortunately (a thing very un• usual) there had been no sermon in the Church that day, otherwise the conseqtiences might have been se rious indeed. Friday morning, four men descended a mine at Leadhills, which, after a lapse of 2t years, bad been only re-opened a few days previous. The workmen at first dreaded no harm ; but ere long the roof be. t gan to yield, and by seven o'clock the whole fell in with a tremendous crash. Fottunately two of the four men had time to flee to a place of safety, but the others received no warning whatever, and were, to all appearance, buried in the ruins. Above ground, the accident excited the greatest grief and consterna tion ; and ere many minutes had elapsed, 150 miners assembled on the spot, and began to dig, as they sup posed, for the corpses of their friends. After the most unremitting exertions they had the happiness of hear. ing their voices on Saturday morning ; but still their task was one of great danger and difficulty, and it was not till eleven o'clock on Sunday that they suc ceeded in rescuing them from their frightful abode. Monday morning, a young man, named Thomas Burr, was found dead in a cherry orehard, at Oare, near Faversham. It appeared that the deceased had been up in one of the trees, stealing cherries, when a Ilarge arm broke off, and precipitatedhim to the ground. A man, well dressed, ordered a bed a few nights ago at the %%bite Bear, Uride-lane, Bridge -street, and slept there three nights, for which he paid and went away. On the maid going up stairs to make the beds, the missed three excellent sheets, which had been stolen. The mode of stealing them was new and in genious. The under-sheet was doubled, so that the tw • ends made it appear that two sheets were on the bed. An earthquake has lately destroyed what remained of the fortifications of Suli. COSSET OF ENCS.E AE-DISCOVIIRED IN NEW SOUTH. WALEs.—On the 2d of June, 1822, Mr. Rumker re discovered in Gemini the periodical comet of Encke, which has excited so much notice, and from which it appears, that the revolution of this comet in 1204 days is put beyond a doubt. This comet was observed in 1786,1795, 1801, 1805, and 1818 ; and by a corn. parison of all these observations, he calculated two s ets of elements, which represented the observations within two minutes of a degree. In these elements. the revolution for 1809 was 1203452 days, and ' 1204452, and half the greater a;is 0.3472191 and 0.3474612. With tittle data, M. Encke computed ephemerides of the Comet for 1822. He announced, that he had little hopes of its being seen in Europe in 1822, as before June it would be extremely faint, and always near the horizon, and in the month of June it would set at the same time with the sun. He added, however, " that in south latitude 34 degrees, the cornet, in the beginning of June, would be elevated 24 degrees above the horizon at sunset, and would then be as bright as a star of the fourth magnitude." Our leaders cainicit fail to remark the singularity of the circumstance. thatlir. Rumker, who accompanied Sir T. Bt h:tile to New South Wales, should have discovered this Comet oa the 2d of June, 1822, at l'itrotakAtt4, in $3 des. 48 Mina 4.1 sec, south latitude. SUSSEX ASSIZES. LEWES, JULY n. Sarah Baron was charged with the wilful murder of a new-born male bastard child, at .the parish of Sithdeanery of Chichester. The prisoner, who appeared to be about thirty years of age, seemed to be labourng under extreme anguish. She was dressed in black, and the Learned Judge permitted her to have a chair during the in vestigation of the case. Tlie details of the case would be merely disagree able without presenting any peculiarity of circum stances. It was supposed, from the appearances in 'the body of the child, that it was strangled, but the surgeon was of opinion, that this might probably ' have happened by accident. The prisoner, when called on For her defence. only said, the child was not born alive. The Learned BARON informed the Jury, that by a late Statute, it was provided, that if the Jury were of opinion the prisoner was innocent of the crime of murder, they were to say if she was guilty of con cealing the birth. The Jury consulted for about a quarter of an hour, when they found the prisoner Not Guilty of Murder, but Guilty of concealing the birth. Mr. Baron GRAHAM then addressed the prisoner as follows:—" Sarah Bacon, you stand convicted by a verdict pronounced by a Jury of your country, not indeed of the heavy charge which this indictment prefers against you, and which the humanity of the Jury has prevented them from finding against you, but they find you guilty of having endeavoured to conceal the birth of the child of which you were de livered. You cannot but be aware, and perhaps you may be con.cious yourself of the great extent of mis chief that has ensued from that unpardonable indis cretion, at least—to call it by no harder name. When I look to the circumstances of your case, and look to its consequences, I cannot but consider your offence as a grave and serious one, even in the miti gated character in which it is now brought forwai d against yott. I feel it my duty, the, efore, to sentence you to be imprisoned in the House of Correction for the space of-twelve calendar months." _ Jolt:: Jones stood capitally indicted for committing a certain assault upon Sarah Hampton, a young girl thirteen years of age. The unfortunate girl was the daughter of a small farmer, who was in the employ of the Earl of Chi chester. The prisoner was employed to milk cows in company with the girl, and on one of these occa sions, viz. the 27th of May last, between six and seven o'clock in the evening, the prisoner succeeded in effecting his base intentions. From the simplicity and backwardness of the girl in deposing to the fact to an extent sufficient to authorize the Jury in finding a verdict, the effect of which would have been to take away the life of the prisoner, the Learned Baron di• rected the Jury to find a verdict of Acquittal. His-LORDSHIP reprimanded the prisoner in very strong terms before he left the bar. GARDNER V. WELLARD. • This was an action brought by the plaintiff, who was Vicar of East Dean, for an obstruction which had been made against his alleged right of way by a certain path from the vicarage house to the church. It appeared by the evidence on the part of the plaintiff, that there existed a pathway from the gar den-gate of the vicarage house to the parish church, by which the plaintiff and many of his predecessors had been accustomed to g o, for the purpose of per forming their duty, it bing three furlongs nearer than by the public road. The defendant had placed a formidable barrier across, so as to form the obsti uc tion complained of. Several witnesses of a very advanced period in life were called, and proved that they had always seen the Minister enter the church-yard from the path in question; that they never knew or heard of any interruption having been offered him whilst passing to and fro. The practice was carried back to a very remote period, during which the plaintiff's predeces sors constantly exercised the alleged right. On the part of the defendant, Mr. MARRYA'T in sisted that what the plaintiff now claimed as a right was not legally to be so considered, but only as a matter, of favour, which the party owning the soil in the path in question had, as a matter of neigh bourly accommodation, granted to the Vicar of the parish and his predecessors. To prove the non-existence of such a right, several witnesses were called, from whose evidence it ap peared that disputes had sometimes existed by pre vious Vicars, when an opposition was made by the owner of the soil, to which no 'resistance was offered, but, on the contrary, was acquiesced in. At onetime a request was made for leave to erect a gate on the path in question, and in four instances funerals had taken place from the vicarage house, which passed along the path in question, the undertaker in each instance placing a halfpenny on the post, to prevent any one Irons claiming a right of thoroughfare. The Learned Judge ( Mr. Serjeant Os Low) ob •serveJ on the extent to which the vulgar notion had prevailed in the coaatry, that the passing of a lime ral procession over a spot of land created a public right of way in all his Majesty's subjects. He re membered an instance where the heir refused to al low the corpse of his father to becarried over certain fields, from this fallacious apprehension; the conse quence of which was, the funeral procession was compelled to go by roads_ almost impassable, and many miles out of the way. Mr. GURNEY replied, and afterwards his Lordship summed up; when the Jury found a verdict for the defendant, negativing the Clergyman's right of pass ing and repassing by the path in question. At Croydon Assizes the new law has been acted upon, and sentence of death been recorded only, and not passed, upon those prisoners whom it was not in tended to leave for execution. At the Shrewsbury As s izes on Tuesday, EDMUND WHITCOMB, Esq. one of the Coroners for the county of Salop, was found guilty ou a charge of perverting the course of justice, in endearouriug to bias a Jury, in returning a verdict in an inquest held on the body of a woman of the name of Newton, who it was suspected had been murdered by her husband.— The defendant was ordered to be brought' up to the Court of King's Bench fur judgment. A poor woman, of the name of Arnold, residing in Union-street, Hackney-road, was safely delivered of three boys on Tuesday last,, who are all doing well. FASHIONS FOR AUGUST.

It wonderfully improves the growth of the I lair, and in dressing makes it beautifully soft and glossy, and by its great nutritive qualities, gives it such strength and elasticity, that it retains its Curl during exercise or iu damp weather; and where the Hair has fallen off from illness, perspiration, or any cause occasioning premature decay, it infallibly restores the growth.

EXECUTION IN AMERICA,—At the last Superior Court fur the Isle of Wight County, United States, came on the trial of Willis and Dempsey Carr, for the murder of John AMA, last Autumn, while he and his wife were travelling through that county firm Tennessee. Willis was sentenced to 18 years ini pi ison ment in the Penitentiary, and Dempsey was con demned to be hung, on Friday, the 20th day ofJune. His execution accordingly took place on that day.— The criminal was taken from the jail to the gallows in a cart, amidst an immense concourse of spectators, and attended by a Minister of the Gospel, who deli vered a sermon at the fatal tree, to which the miserable man paid great attention. He took an affectionate leave of his friends, and in the next moment the fatal drop fell, and he was left suspended in the air ; but the rope, not being strong enough to bear his weight, broke about six inches from his neck, and he fell to the ground. The noose was instantly disengaged from his neck, and another provided. As soon as he recovered himself; he began to pray aloud to Goo to have mercy on his soul. He was then again tied up, and the world closed on him for ever.
