The Irish Papers again abound with details of law less outrages. The atrocious murderers of the Franks are still undiscovered, notwithstanding the great reward offered by the Government, and the active exertions made to detect them. The bodies of Mr. and Mrs. Franks and their son were interred at Kildorrery, at an early hour on Friday morning se'nnight, attended by many of the respectable Gentry of that neighbourhood ; and it is worthy of remark, that scarcely any of the peasantry, and cer- , tainly none of his own tenantry, were at the funeral. After the Inquest was ended, the clothes were taken cif the body of the elder Mr. Franks, when it was found to be perforated in innumerable places, back, belly, and sides, by the double prongs of hay-forks or t!e impressions of which even went into the floor w7:ere he lay. "f:•e friends of Mr. Franks have no hesitation in say in:. that the murders were committed by persons of ea'eir own immediate neighbourhood, leagued with their tenant. y, as it was believed by them that the elder Mr. Franks was the only I;fe in existence of the farm upon which he lived. The mother and son, knowing the tarty, fell a, a necessary consequence. In the counties of Kilkenny and Limerick barns have teen bi;rned, plantations of young trees destroyed, and fields of flak cut with a scythe and scattered. Tithe Valuators have been attacked by armed banditti in the open day ; and the Limerick Chronicle states, that on Saturday morning, the 13th instant, at six o'clock, Mr. John B. Williams, with a party of twenty men, distrained iorne of his tenants on a farm situated about eleven Miles west of Bandon, and two of Baleaneen, for non- Fayment of rent. One of the tenants, with a whistle, immediately assembled a mob of over two hundred Men, and attacked Mr. Williams and his party with :tellies of stones, rescued the cattle, struck Mr. Williams himself, wounded some of his men desperately, and disarmed one man of a gun. MR. SADLER'S IERIAL ASCENT. SHEFFIELD, SEPTEMBER 20, 1823. The history of ballooning does not record a more Majestic ascent than that of Mr. SADLER on Thursday from this town. The day was singularly fine, and not a cloud obscured the atmosphere. The balloon ap peared " a thing of life," and sailed through the air in the most imposing grandeur, whilst the intrepid terci v pant acknowledged the acclamations of the countless ihousands, who gazed. with wonder and delight. For 19wai ds of twenty , minutes the balloon remained in sight, when Mr. SADLER, we presume," waved his/xi, end bade adieu." His descent was equally fine, it took klice near Tickhill,. about five o'clock. The brother Sir GEORGE Alai &SAGE accompanied Mr. SADLER to effield, where he arrived about half-past nine o'clock. e following is Mt. SA.DLER'S own brief narrative of hii ascent i 44 I ascended at five minutes past two o'clock, end in twenty-two minutes, the town of Sheffield was obscured from my view; but for some time I had °eta iional views of the enclosures beneath me. In ascending through the clouds I was attended with chilliness. The ballooi continued rising until five minutes to three o'clock, the greatest elevation being about two miles, prhen the ref ection of the sun upon the oalloon, car, Sic. tendered it extremely warm. I descended at fifteen Minutes past three o'clock, in a grass-field, adjoining a copse called fiesningslength, about apilefromTiekhill." Su urtvitscr..—BELve sT, SEPT ICU Iss R 17.—Arrived on Monday, at this port, the brig Hope, PORTER Master. the 27th of August, in lat. 46. long. 32.

We announce, with much regret, that the lion. Mr. TREVOR, second son of Viscount DUNGANNON, died at Stapleton-park, Yorkshire, last Thursday evening, F nine o'clock, after having languished in a state of in sensibility from the period when he received the con cussion on the brain, as mentioned in our last paper, up to the time of his death. A Court-Martial was held on Thursday, on Lieutenant Balsam., R. N. upon a charge of ill-using John Brand, a private marine ; when, upon a review of all the circumstances, he was adjudged to be reprimanded. Captain EDWARD BRAM, C.ll. President. At a Meeting of the Magistt kites acting for the Lower Division of the Rape of Lewes, held at Cuckfield on the i2th instant, for the purpose of licensing victuallers for the year ensuing, it was resolved by them: " That this Bench will net. in future, license any new house be longing to any brewer, nor prant a license for any house, now li censed, which shall hereafter be :ra: sferred to a brewer, whilst it Shall remain the property of any filch brewer; and that the Clerk should send to cwt . ,. publican, within the division, a copy of the Resolution."

Madame VESTRIS was the Annette, and she did not fail to give the part all its appropriate vivacity and point. .In addition to the songs of the Opera, she made some agreeable introductions. One air from The Law of Java, was remarkably pretty, and it received a loud encore. The other 'female characters were respectably sustained by Mrs. dA MUCK and Miss Love. TERRY, played Sir John Contrast for the first time, and displayed his usual talent as far as the author had afforded scope for its exercise. Mr. LE.ost LSE and Mr. DAVIS ably performed the music of Rashly and 7 rue more. In the farce of My Grandmother, Mr. VINING played Vapour with much success. Miss JOHNSON, in the same piece, was so much affected by timidity and in disposition, as not to be able to continue a song which she commeived. The audience encouraged and ap plauded her'in the kindest manner. ENGLISH OPERA. The entertainments on Saturday evening were com manded by his Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex, who honoured the Theatre with his presence. Mr. MA Tit Ew, was the prominent attraction of the evening, and had no small share of fatiguing business to bustle through. He played Caleb Qualm?", in " The Rerieu ;" Monsieur Mor-1 bleu, in "Monsieur Towson;" and Dick Cypher, of 1823, in the favourite Farce of " Hit or Miss." Neither the multifarious avocations of Caleb, nor the teazing impor tunities of Monsieur 7'onson, prevented him from giving, what the rattling Dick himself might denominate, a very "tidy" representation of a "swell Coachman." Two sporting songs were introduced, which were loudly, and we think unmercifully encored. Mr. MATHEWS, how ever, is always " At Home ;" neither kis strength nor spirit seemed to flag from the exertions of the evening, and he appeared both ready and willing " to come it again." He was frequently and loudly cheered by all parts of the House. The House was crowded. THE CHILD OF SORROW. Cold blew the wind—no gleam of light, When aux left her home, And brav'd the horrors of the night, O'er dreary wilds to roam! The lovely maid bad late been gay, When hope and fortune smil'd, But now, alas ! to grief a prey Wu ELLIN, Sorrow's Child ! She long was Wallops's promis'i bride, But, ah! how sad her doom ! The gentle youth, in manly pride, Was summon'd to the tomb ! No more those joys shall Mum prove, Which many an hour begu . il'd ; From morn to eve she mourns her love, Sweet Raw, Sorrow's Child ! With faulerlog steps away she flies O'er %Luau's grave to weep, For aunt there, with tears and sight, Her watch would often keep ; The pitying Angel saw her woe, And came with aspect mild ; Thy tears shall now no longer tow, Sweet Ester, Sorrow's Child ! Thy plaintive notes are heard above, Where thou shalt soon (Ind rest ; Again thou shalt behold thy love And be for ever blest ! " Ah ! can such bliss be mine ?" she cried, With voice and looks so wild, Then sunk upon the earth and died, Sweet aunt, Sorrow's Child ! POOLE, SEP LEMBER 19. Perhaps there is not a town in the West of England, of its size and population, where improvements have been cat tied to a greater extent (within the last twenty years) than in this place. The widen ing, paving, and pitching the streets; its proverbiality for cleanliness, &c. the spaciousness of its QUAYS, their convenience for loading and unloading vessels at all times, and their contiguity to the stores ; its warehouses for bonding all sorts of goods and merchandize (it being a Free Port), render it unrivalled by any Port of Its size in the three Channels. The erection of an elegant Chunk, which the dilaniciation of the ancient structure rendered absolutely necessary, confers great credit on those who orizinally planned as well as the architect who com pleted the edifice. It has been much and deservedly admired, and supposed to be surpassed by few Churches of its size out of the me tropolis. Its fine organ claims particular attention; an excellent ring of eight bells, enlivens the scene on days devoted to festivity. Oue objection however exists, from the lowness of the tower, which in some measure destroys the effect of the bells; this we hope to see rectified hereafter by an addition to the height. A spire would, to this commercial town, be a most desirable acquisition, as a land mark to mariners. As soon as the present improvements are completed, we antici pate, from the opulency of its Inhabitants, several others, particularly the erection of a Bridge across the harbour, which would not only get rid of that miserable mode of ferry at present in use, and which is altogether incompatible with the advanced state of the popula tion, but would also make this town a thoroughfare to the West of F.ngland--of great benefit and importance both to travellers and the public in general. It has also been long a desideratum, and we trust it will soon be carried into effect, to run off a Pier from tie Fisk Shambles to Me Stakes Buoy, which, besides the great advantage to shipping, might be made of sufficient width to allow of an elegant Esplanade, than which nothing would be likely to receive greater countenance from the Ladies, who at present are ill accommodated with public walks. — This object has long been considered, by experienced men, as likely to benefit the Harbour, as by confining the water within the Ship Channel, the Harbour would be better scoured and kept cleaner. The lighting of the town would also be a great advantage ; we lament that the improvement some years since in agitation of bring ing in soft wafer, by means of conduits, front Tatnam, to a re servoir in some central situation, has not been carried into effect. His MAJESTY took his usual rides in the Great Park, Windsor, every day last week. JOHN PLurrEETT, Esq. son of the Right Honourable WILUAS COMM/IMAM Punster, his Mijesty's• Attorney-General for Ireland, will shortly lead the lovely and accomplished isflss Buses, third daughter of the Lord Chief Justice of the Court of Ki's Bench, Ireland, to the hymeneal altar. The Marquis of CAMDEN arrived at Chester on Thurs day last, and paid a visit to the different public buildings. Monday, Westbromwich and its neighbourhood were visited by a snow storm, which fell heavily for a considerable time. 'llie 10:11 of October will be a distinguished clay in Ireland, as the duty on whiskey will be reduced from that time, and the ten per cent. duty on importation of English repealed. CURRENTS OP THE OCEAN.—A paper, ef which thi following is a copy, was found on the sth instant, in a bottle picked up on the coast of Pitten, near the Helder: " The brig Hannah, of Liverpool, Captain DAVIT, from Buenos Ayres,riis Havannah, was hi lid. 49.

It is translated musses chimers by the writers •of the low Latinity. At various times sumptuary laws were made; prohibiting the lower classes from wearing an apparel of striking colours. .llence the vrivt:s and daughters of be Bourgeois. who were limited to this grey cloth, were coiled Ostler —a name that still adheres to chembermaids and coquets in low life.
