Letters from Bombay of the 7th January state, i that the England and Sir Stephen Lushington, with thirteen country ships, arc engaged as transports for • the expedition fitting out against the Coast of Arabia. A letter from an Officer of his Maje , ay's ship Ti • ?AM dated MocLa, January 6th, 1821. states, that , after that ship had tired upwards of 3500 thirty-two and eighteen pound shot into the to•ts of that town, articles of peace were agreed to, and salislacti.:n given for the gross insult committed on the Briti4l Resident, who was bambooed through the streets. The TOPAZE had one man killed and several wounded. A New York Paper contains the following article from Albany, dated May 1 :—" At the late April Circuit held before his Honour Chief Justice SPEN fin, in this City, a Jury rendered a verdict of 400 dollars against a person who, after paying his ad dresses for nearly two years to a young Lady in the town of Westerlo. had desosted her. The defendant was proved to be worth about 400 dollars, and the Jury took his all!" Extract of a letter from Kingston, Jamaica, dated the 24th of April :—" Letters from Lima to the 9th of February, have been received by way of Panama. The operations of San Martin had much straightened the communications with the capital, and his head quarters were pitched u ithin six miles of it. The Viceroy Pezuela, knowing the disposition of the na tives and the disaffection of the troops, had carefully avoided general engagements ; and in his corres pondence with San Martin had addressed him in the style of civility adopted by civilized nations of Eu rope. These proceedings, however, were not agree able to the taste of the Municipality and Consulado, principally composed of Spaniards. They issued a Pro clamation setting a price on the bead of every office:, from San Martin downwards, in the Chilian army. On the 29th of January, the General Officers of the Royalist army in Lima deposed Pezuela, who had no alternative but to submit. In a Manifesto which he publishes, he states, that he has resigned the com mand, because he was destitute of the means for re sisting the enemy. Thus the conqueror of Ayouma, Villcapugio, and Sire, has had the good fortune to be spared the humiliation of being a party in the sur render of Lima, which is deemei unavoidable. The new Viceroy named by the junta of Officers is Gene ral La Serna, who hail lately commanded the army of Upper Peru. Whatever the talents of that Officer may be, he has, as yet, not had opportuni ties for shewing them. According to the custom of the Spaniards, they now deprecate the administra tion of Pezuela, and affect to expect wonders from that of La Serna." About five o'clock on Sunday evening a fire broke out at the Prussia blue manufactory, belonging to Bullevincle, Maiden-lane, Battle-bridge, which burned with great fury ; the flames communicated to the feather-bed manufactory belonging to Mr. Ward, which adjoins. Several engines having arrived, and there being a plentiful supply of water, the tire was prevented from spreading further, and it was got tinder. Mr. Bullevincle's warehouses were destroyed, and the feather-bed manufactory much damaged. It has been determined at Leeds, in Yorkshire, to assess in future the Vicar and Vicarial Tithcs there to the relief of the Poor. THE CORONATION. The departments of the Earl hlarshal, the Lord Great Cham berlain, the Lord Chamberlain of the Household, the Lord Steward, and the Board of Works, are all equally on the alert, in making preparations for the ceremony ; and their Officers and Clerks are required to attend early and late, in order to enable them to perform their arduous duties. The decorative works are also in active progress; and Mr. MASH is as usual indefa tigable in his attendance, being daily and hourly employed in in specting the details which tall within his tunctions. There . :e now between two and three hundred men engaged in West.mostee Hall and its vicinity, from six in the morning till seven in the evening. As many persons are admitted by tickets to view the progress of the preparations, in order to pre vent interference and interruption to the workmen, a rail was yesterday morning erected across the platform, to prevent their descending into the body of the Hall ; all visitors are, however, received with the moat polite attention; and every inquiry satis factorily answered. As it will be impolsible to complete the repairs of the western turret at the entrance to the Hall, the workmen employed on this have been withdrawn, and it is to be immediately closed in a case of boards till after the Coronation. The lantern on the top the Ilall will soon be completed :it is formed of cast-iron, and has a beautiful appearance. Orders have been issued for immediately commencing the pro cessional plait.): iii, the stables for the Champion's horse. &c. The room in the passage south of the Hall, that which has hitherto been called 6 . the Lord Chancellor's Parlour," is to be fittetpup fur his hlarerry's reception, and here his MAJZSTY will remain till the appointed period for his joining the proces sion. The Royal Regalia will he deposited in the opposite room. The Peers, and other Members of the procession, will assem ble in the I loose of Lords, and the apartments adjoining. There will be a second platform erected from the entrance of the House of Lords to I (sets' Corner. This will be entirely closed, and is intended for the convenience of those branches of the Royal Family who do not join in the procession, the Foreign Ambassadors, Peeresses, &c. to proceed without interruption to and from the Abbey. The galleries and theatres which will be erected in the line of the procession, for the use of the Public, have been ordered, and persons were this morning employed in measuring the ground, and arranging their plans for that purpose. In the Abbey the upholsterers are actively proceeding with their labours; and the Than has set his workmen in motion to complete the preparations which fall within his department.

Mr. CARTWRIGHT, Grand Chaplain, delivered an enlightened and elegant ad dress to the Brethren. _ _ The day was finished at the festive board, where harmony and conviviality reigned, and the party re tired, pleased with the sumptuous entertainment pro vided for them by Mr. PAusoNs, the Proprietor of the Steyne Hotel.

I 2 WHITSUN HOLIDAY AMUSEMENTS. Yesterday some hundreds of amateurs, from Lon don, had a rare day's sport in the vicinity of Shooters' Hill. The celebrated game bull, which displayed such courage and science, about twelve months ago, in Fulham-fields, and of whose prowess we gave a particular account at that time, was brought forward in order to shew how easily he could repel the attacks of about one hundred spirited and ferocious dogs, which were successively let loose at him. The noble animal was not in the slightest degree dismayed by his assailants ; he never attempted to run even half the length of his rope, but waited their approacli with the utmost coolness and composure. He kept his nose so close to the ground, that it was impossible to pin him ; and even before he could receive a scratch, he had one of his horns ready to pitch his antagonist into the air. It was about half-past three o'clock when this conflict commenced. .At first only one dog at a time was suffered to attack the bull ; and every attack proved ineffectual ; for after three or four desperate assaults, and a severe pitch from the horns, and a bang against the ground each time, each dog was carried away in a helpless state by its owner. After a respite of about a quarter of an hour, two dogs at a time were suffered to fly at the bull ; these were equally unsuccessful in their endeavours to catch hold of him ; for when they got under his belly, he beat them down with his feet ; and when they came near his face, he flung them about with as much ease as he would so many sheaves of corn. Three or four dogs were afterwards suffered to at tack him at once; and these too he defeated with astonishing dexterity and composure. Three dogs at a time were frequently seen carried away, quite dis abled, by their owners. At last a prime bull-dog, of 'a black colour, which was considered the most fierce and powerful of all that were brought into the field, was let loose; he rushed with fury against the enemy, not upon either of the flanks, but in his very front, just as a besieging force would try to storm the sa liant angle of a fortress. His approach was observed with admirable coolness And deliberation; and before he was able to make the slightest impression on the outworks, he was thrown into the air just as if a mine had been sprung, and his fall was so terrible, that he did not survice the shock ; he died in less I than five minutes in the arms of his owner. The', fight was then at an end : no other person would I venture to try the courage of his dog ; and the vic torious bull was led away in triumph from the field : he followed his keeper with as much docility and quietness as if he were a spaniel. It was expected that the above exhibition would have been succeeded by a battle between two Lon don pugilists, for 20 guineas a-side; but neither of them made their appearance. The chilling cold and wetness of yesterday did not intimidate the lovers of rural recreations from pay ing their annual 'visits to the, beautiful lawns and walks of Greenwich. At an early hour in the morn ing, all the coaches and some scores of carts were filled with passengers from London; and the sum mit of the hill in the Park was, as usual, crowded with lads and lasses, who were resolved to take the precipitate and perilous run, at the expense of several tails and damaged garments. These sports were . kept up until the heavy showers , which fell about two o'clock, completely cleared the place. The shows and booths, in the meantime, were crowded, and dancing and carousing was, as usual, kept up in all the public-house). OUTRAGEScIN IRELAND. A widow woman, named Ellen Kelly, aged eighty. end blind, occupied a small tenement, at Clonclon. labout two miles from Tullainore s consisting of about two acres of land, and a cabin ; two sons and two daughters, all grown up; the youngest daughter, Ellen, being fifteen years old, lived with their mo ther. For some time back the widow's rent was in arrear, and Mr. Jackson, her landlord, required that the farm should be given up. After taking the pro ceedings necessary to enable him to obtain possession, Thomas Jackson, the son of the landlord, a young man about twenty-one years of age, armed himself with a bayonet attached to a pole, eight or nine feet long, and set out between three and four in the morn ing of the 28th of May, accompanied only by a man named Sothern, to take possession of the cabin where the family of the . Kellies resided. When they came to the house they found the door open, a neighbour, a schoolmaster, having called at that early hour to speak to one of the sons about hiring a horse. The schoolmaster retired just as Jackson entered the cabin. Thomas Kelly, the elder of the two sons was in his shirt, having been called up by the schoolmaster; when he heard the voice of Jackson he approached him, but was immediately struck at by Jackson with the weapon ; the cries of •fhomas Kelly brought the other brother to his assistance, also in his shirt, who was assailed in like manner by Jackson; both bro thers were wounded in various parts of the body.— The two sisters having now got out of bed, nearly naked, were set upon by Jackson with the utmost fury: Mary Kelly, the elder, was wounded in two places; Ellen, ag ed fifteen, received a mortal wound in the side, under the breast; she was also pierced in the arm. It does not appear that Ssthern, who ac companied Jackson, took any part, either to assist Of to restrain him. The schoolmaster stood at some dis tance, but was so alarmed for his own safety that he did not venture to interfere. Jackson did not desist from his deadly purpose until the whole of this wretched family, except the aged, blind mother, were disabled or dying. The Gentlemen of the neigh bourhood, when they received an account of this bloody business, had Jackson immediately secured. The unfortunate wounded persons were taken every care of, and a collection made for their relief. In this benevolent work, Dr. Wilson (a Magistrate), and the Officers of the Enniskillen Dragoons, quartered at Tullamore, particularly exerted themselves.—An Inquest was held on the body of Ellen Kelly, by George Pierce, Esq. Coroner. The verdict was 4, Died in consequence of wounds inflicted upon her by Thomas Jackson with a bayonet." A person of the name of Thomas Kavanagh, was barbarously murdered about two o'clock in the morn ing of the 29th ult. upon the lands of Clonboo, within four miles of the town of Templemore, in the barony of Ikerin, in the county of Tipperary, under circum stances of the most aggravated atrocity. The fol lowing are the particulars of this horrid outrage:— The lands of Clonboo, part of the estate of the Earl of Carrick, containing about 233 acres, were lately tenanted, as a grazing farm, by Theophilus Barnett and James Bennett, Lsqrs. who held theta) from. his Lordship, for the life of a Mrs. Skies, otherwise Lid well, who died in the month of August last. Edward Cronyne, Esq. of Thomastown, in the county of Kil kenny, the land agent of Lord Carrick, thought it for his Lordship's interest to make three divisions of this farm, which he let to new tenants ; one of which di visions, containing 56 acres, was leased to J. Kayes and Daniel Kavanagh, the son-in-law of Kayes, both of whom resided for many years on the lands. The former was herdsman to the late tenants. Since the letting of those lands several threatening notices were from time to time served on the new tenants, and posted up at night, cautioning and requiring them to give up the lands ; the ditches and fences on different parts of the farm were levelled by night ; and the persons who attempted to plough for the new tenants were hunted away in the day time by armed men.— Kayes, and his son-in-law, Kavanagh, two or three days previous to the 29th ult. commenced erecting the walls of a house on the division of the farm taken by them, the houses wherein they resided being on another division of the farm, lately set to Theobald Butler, a new tenant ; and for Butler's accommoda tion, Kayes removed his family into the house of his son-in-law, Daniel Kavanagh, with an intention of residing there until the new house should be finished. On the night of the 28th, or rather about two o'clock in the morning of the 29th ult. both families were in bed in the house of Kavanagh, when an armed party, about twelve in number, attacked the house in a most furious manner, and in an instant shattered the door to pieces, firing shots through it, and battering it with large stones. The door being dashed in, the party broke into the house, and tired several shots in the directions where they heard the voices of any of the family. They then rushed at a bed in the kitchen, in which Thomas Kavanagh, a tailor, 70 years of age, • and who was the father of Daniel Kavanagh, and one Martin Bergin, a journeyman tailor, were sleep ing, and the ruffians, seizing upon Bergin, dragged him towards the cabin door, where he cried out for mercy, declaring that he had nothing to de with the land, and that he never would sleep is the house again; whereupon he was spared, and the party im mediately laid bold on Thomas Kavanagh, the old man, and dragged him outside the door, striking him with a spade-handle, guns, and blunderbuss, on the head, and in a moment put an end to his existence, after having inflicted a number of dreadful wounds on his head.—Kayes, the tenant, concealed himself under a bed; and escaped observation in the dark, the party not being prepared with lights. Young Kavanagh, the son-in-law of Kayes, succeeded in keeping test the room-door, wherein he and his wife, with an infant child about five weeks old, with. four other children, lay; some of the family, who slept in the kitchen, crept up the chimney, and others lay flat on the floor, by which means they escaped the &sets that were fired in every direction through the cabin. There were twelve persons, young and old, sleeping in Ka vanagh's cabin on this night; and the party who en tered broke every atom of furniture therein to pieces, and then left notices, ordering the tenants, under dread ful threats to quit the farm they had lately taken. A boat, in which were six men and two women, was yesterday upset, off 'Deptford, by the sudden rising of the women, apprehending danger from barge laden with deals coming athwart them. They weir all fortnnately picked up by some boats passing.
