IRELAND. DCBLIN, OCTOBER 31. from a letter received in town yesterday from New castle, in the county of Loberick, we are happy in being able to state on its authority, that no new out nee had been committed there, or in the immediate of the place : Such a circumstance would consoling at such a moment of alarm, b e par • titularly w e could add, that the tumultuary spirit of a part n i c he peasantry was subsiding at the date of the letter. It i s impossible to describe the anxiety which pre vailed in Dublin, since the first accounts were re ceived r egarding the state of hi, M AJESTY'S health. Mad w e not been witness . to the solicitude evinced by all ran k s of his MasEsTe s subjects on the occasion, we could scarcely have imagined the degree of pain ful interes t which the accounts from Hanover excited. the arrival th e ary D ublin removed the apprebenstons of people of , and we i c el extremely gratified, that we can now assure the p u blic, that hi. MAJESTY was fast recovering from the attack of the gout with which he was afflicted, and that he may be expected in England on or about the 2(xli of nest mon:b. NATIONAL TssT I NIO NIA L.—lt appears from ac counts received from different parts of the country c har the subject excites universal attention, and that co nsiderable sums have been subscribed in several di s tricts by persons of every communion, joining ia thiiinspicious sacrifice of ancient dissensions at the , oar of concord, and anxious to erect a perpetual "aim on ial of such an event. The zeal of th.• 1:4,- 1 , pan Catholic Clergy is in no repect inferior to that oftheir Protestant brethren; anti on this occasion we feel a pleasure in mentioning, that the Right Rev. Dr. OPPINGER, the Roman Catholic Bishop of the and has pointedly called the attention of the o r gy under his care to so important a matter which has for its object, not only the commemoration of the visit, but the consolidation of the union of frith. m en. We feel much satisfaction in stating, that the Officers, Non-commissioned Officers, and privates, of that old and highly distinguished Regiment, the tith Enniskillen Dragoons, commanded by the Earl of hansaoxe, K.G. have, in the most handsome man aer, s ubscribed the sum of 1;31 4s. 9d. towards the National Testi/atonal, about to be erected in comme moration of the gracious visit of his MAJESTY CO his Irish dominions. Saturday last a very melancholy and heart-rend ing accident occurred in the lime-kiln, near the Ovens. a few miles from Cork: While the per sons employed about the kiln, which is built in the quarry, were en deavouring to rekindle it below, for which purpose a quantity of sulphur, with other combustible mat ter, is used, two fine boys, one the son rff Mr. MAO MR, the owner, the other the son of a poor woman in the neighbourhood, whom he employed as a ser vant, were induced by curiosity to look down horn the top, which is on a level with the adjoining ground. Scarcely had they done so, when overcome by the suffocating vapour vs hick had begun t) ascend, both at the same moment fell in! A man, at a snori dis tance, who observed the appalling circumstance, im mediately gave notice of what had happened ; instant efforts were used to rescue thear Iron their hen iLle fate, but before the bodies Lould be got at, about tif• Been minutes had elapsed, ansi when taken up both were quite dead. WEYMOU 111, IVOVEMBER 2. The Ball at RUSSELL'S Public Rooms, which took place on Tuesday evening, under the patronage 01 the Countess of COVENTRY, was honoured with the attendance of a most brilliant assemblage of rank, beauty, and fashion. The tto , :ms were most superbly illuminated, and the floor of the Ball-room was ta:re fully delineated with the arms of that Noble family, and other appropriate devices. The band of the 1-t Regiment of Royal Dragoon, were in attendance, by the command of Colonel CLIFTON, and the enliven ing dance was most happily enjoyed till an early boar; the whole reflecting the highest credit on Mr. Rust .z., for the great attention he displayed, to the entire satisfaction of this distinguished and numerous party.--This fashionable watering-place continues ex ceeding gay, and promises to produce a fine latter harvest to the proprietors of lodging-houses. It is with iiihnite satisfaction that we witness the rapid progress which is making towards placing the sew establishment of the Portland Dispensary on a permanent footing. This excellent Institution was brought forward under the fostering auspices of ttie philanthropic Captain STEVENSON, and since libe rally supported by subscriptions at the Libraries from other Gentlemen and Ladies, who possess the power and inclination to alleviate the suffering! of their .fel low-creatures. Monday, Sir T. D. ACLA ND, Bart. visited King Arthur's Castle, in the Parish of Tintagel. .0n the night of the 21st tilt. a soldier of the name Hof Thomas Newton, quartered in Chatham, was found dead in his bed at the Fountain public.house. Yesterday s a young woman, named Elizabeth Newell, who was employed in the flock-manufactory bf AlesSrs. Taylor and Co. Red Cross-street, South wark, was at work at an engine, at what is termed " feeding the devil," by supplying it with pieces of woollen and flock, when unfortunately the engine broke, and her hand was drawn amongst the cog and lath, and was torn to pieces in an instant. She was conveyed to Guy's Hospital, where the arm was am putated. She is in a very precarious condition. A melancholy occurrence happened at Rothesay,, es Friday se'nnight. Six people, in crossing over to Cowal in an open boat, it upset from mismanage- Int% when four of them perished ; the other two Clang to some boards and a box that were in the boat, and were taken up by the Greenock packet. A distressing accident occurred on Sunday night, at a coal-work, near Rutherglen. The Messrs. FILL, father and son, had gone to arrange swething con nected with the engine, about twelve o'clock; the light th e y carr i e d with them had been extinguished, and Mr. FELL went for a light; on his return be found that his son had fallen down the pit. The young mail was so dreadfully injured that he died almost immediately. PIiEJTON Gott x—Orders have been given to put into complete repair the whole of the noble mansion of the Earl of Deasy, in Preston, prepasatory to his Lordship and family occupying it at the approach ing Guild. FIRE AND LIFE INSURANCE. The prudential act of providing against the cala mity of Fire, and the still greater and monekertain calamity which a family 'suffers by the death of its chief supporter, is becom ing so general, that it is necessary the Public should be enabled to estimate the relative merit of the schemes which are offered to their choice. These schemes vary from each other in their minuter details, but it appears that they are a ll reducible under one or other of the four following heads :-15t. CONTRIBUTIONSIIIP, or UNION Socie ties; in these Societies, those who desire Insurance, club together : by their deposit of premium they raise a fund, out of which they indemnify themselves, but each man is individually liable, in his whole pro perty, fit any deficiency that may occur. If there be a surplus of profit, they divide it; and this they ought to da wholly, and at short intervals, for the members for the time being, who run all the risk, ought to have all the profit, when there be any. Any reserve of what they win, would he a sacrifice of their property to benefit a succession of strangers, ' who took no part in their risk. But, dividing in this way, a partial run of losses sooner or later creates a deficiency, whence it is that Societies of this kind seldom last many years, before they break up through di.appnintment, and insolvency. To obviate these objections, CommeactAt. COM PANIES have taken up Insurance as a business—they offer large permanent capitals in guarantee of their entragements—they take all the risk and all the 1 , rofit—the first consideration, security, is effectually accomplished on this plan, but the attraction of a rno.n is wantin7. A third principle has been elicited by modern in- Felinity in these Societies: it is that of :flaking all the shareholders insure to a certain amount, at all times, whetbe• they have real occasion to insure or not. This ;s a eTrain way tfcreating a business for an establish. other wise might have nothing to do: the apnea , ance- of business pleases the unreflecting, with the chew of profits arising out of their own nee.'less 64C rifices. But so far as the compulsion has effect. it is . a lasting embarrassment and loss to the -hareliolders; for if a shareholder be in want of an insurance, he will naturally prefer his own Office, without compulsion, provided its plan be equally as beneficial, and it he as well conducted as others; but if he have no want of an insurance, it is ridiculous for him to compel himself to incur the expense. As well might a company of apothecaries be formed under a condition that each member should take a given quantity if physic every day, to create a business.— The folly of this scheme is made apparent by the event. Most of the Insurance Offices which have been set up within the last fifteen or sixteen years, have had the compulsion to insure foisted on their share holdeis. and in consequence the shares in all such Offices have continued at a discount, which discount, in son.e instances, has been 60 per cert.! others have broken lip alroge her. The Members of the Birming ham Life Office, formed on the above principle, paid the !'trident Office £20,000 to relieve them from the risks they had undertaken, and the London C-mmercial Life Office paid the same Office, £lOOO to kin it. The fourth principle is that of combining the attrac tion n; i:etnrn of premium yielded by,offices on the Union principle, with the more important considera tifen of solid security, afforded by Offices having per manent capitals of large amount, in addition to the &coning funds arising from the premiums. This princi=le ha , hen applied by the COUNTY FIRE OF ' VICE and PROVIDENT LIFE OFFICE, with uncommon success. The original members formed permanent capital. of ample amount, and all the members, new as well as old, share the profits equaly, according to their respective contributions. These Offices impose no compulsion on their members to insure—yet the increase of their business exceeds all precedent, and their shares have been as invariably at a great pre rnium, as the other Offices of a similar and more recent date, have been at a great discount. After all, the character and conduct of the manage- ment of these Offices is a subject of chief importance to persons who seek security. There are Offices which are remarkable for turning claimants round whenever they can, and for the disgraceful exposures they have sustained in Courts of Law and Equity, the* ought to be carefully avoided. Dunbar House is at this moment a scene present ing a dreary blank. The amiable Countess of LAU DERDALE departed this life on Wednesday evening, about sir o clock, to the inexpressible grief of her Noble Earl and surrounding relatives and friends. Her melancholy dissolution has, alas" been attended with unfortunate circumstances. The Countess had just taken dinner, and had retired to her chamber for the purpose, and was on the eve of enjoying her cus tom of an hopes repose on her couch by the fire-side, when a coal suddenly emitted a spark on her muslin frill, which, immediately igniting, disseminated its ravages throughout her dress with overwhelming ra pidity. Although every assistance was as prompt as seemingly effective, all efforts to subdue them proved abortive, until the most excruciating agony had pre dicted the fatal result which ensued in half an hoar. Her Ladyship was the daughter of the late ANTHONY Tonn, in about her .57th year. and had for a consi derable time past relinquished the busy haunts of fashionable, for the more solid comforts of domestic life; in the full enjoyment of them, however, has all powerful fate thus interposed her inscrutable decree. In hef Ladyship, the elegance of genius, taste, and manners, never failed to excite general admiration— i whilst the virtues of piety, benevolence, and charity, commanded the respect and love of all who posses sed the honour of her acquaintance. Crane-Hall, in Buckinghamshire, the seat of B. R. MARSAVIC, Esq. was totally destroyed by fire, at two o'clock on Thursday morning: the flames were so rapid in the dead of the night, that the inmates had a difficulty in escaping. The fire began in the laun dry, a wing of the house, but not detached, and must have been occasioned by some clothes left to dry taking fire. The interior of the house, together with the furniture, were demolished in less than an hour. Wednesday night, as a pour labouring man and his wife, the titter in a state of pregnancy, were passing by the Angel public-house, at Islington, not pet ceiving the Hap of the cellar at the next house open, the unfortunate woman fell down into the cellar, a depth of eight feet, and was taken up nearly lifeless, having broken two of her sibs. CAPTURE 4•P 1 1 A GANG OP ROBBERS. In consequence of the numberless burglaries and robberies of every description that have lately been perpetrated night after night, at the west end of the town, by a most formidable gang of robbers, who have for a length of time carrred on their nocturnal exploits with the greatest audacity, in defiance of the vigilance of the police, the officers received instruc tions from the Bench of Magistrates at Mary-la- Bonne Police Office to keep a strict lookout after this daring band of marauders; and on Thursday night, having received private information that the remainder of the notorious Jack Henley's gang, who, it will be recollected, suffered death in pursuance of his sentence for the outrage at West End Fair, were in the nightly habit of assembling at a public-house, the sign of the Pontefract Castle, the corner of Bar rett's•court, ‘Vigmore-street, Cavendish-square, to plan what houses they should attack in the night, Pendergrass, Coates, and Hill, constables of Mary la-Bonne, after preparing themselves with necessary weapons of defence, proceeded to the rendezvous. Oa their arrival at the public-house, they first made the landlord sensible of their visit, and then made fast all the doors and windows of the house to pre vent escape; the officers afterwards rushed into the tap-room, where the;ang was assembled : some were talking in a whisper mg tone to each other, and others were lying on the bench sleeping. On the entry of the Officers, all was dismay for some minutes; some declared they would not be taken, white others were for quietly surrendering ; but the officers signifying they were provided with handcuffs and fire-arms, the resolu:.e part of them were obliged to submit, and they were securely handcuffed and conveyed to the watch-house. Yesterday they were brought before the Magistrates at Mary-la-Bonne Police Office, and their hands being set at liberty, they were placed at the Bar for examination. Their names are—Edward Chidley (who had been twice tried at the Old Bailey), James* Hawkins alias Grabby Lyons (a notorious ut terer of forged notes), Donkey ali.ts Hensley (who was discharged by proclamation the last Ses sion), Thomas Grady (brother to the Grady who was tried and cast for death for an aggravated highway robbery this present Session), and Bob ,►aauders (an utterer of forged notes). • The prisoner Donkey, whilst under examination, openly declared he would do for one of the officers who had taken him into custody. The officers stated, that on Wednesday night the house of Mr. Hunt, watchmaker, in Welbeck-street, had been robbed of watches, &c. to a large amount, and they had no doubt but the prisoners were con cerned in the robbery.—The Magistrates committed the whole under the Police Act, as reputed thieves, to the House of Correction. Monday night, the house of Mr. JONES, of Suffolk street, Borough, was entered, and robbed of a quan tity of valuable property. Wednesday night, or early on Thursday morning, the house of C. G. Vlincirs, Esq. of the Kent-road, was entered by means of forcing the back area win dow-shutters with a crow-bar, and plate, trinkets, and linen, stolen therefrom, to the value of about £lOO. An eight-day clock was taken down stairs, but left in the kitchen, as it seems the thieves thought it too ponderous to carry away. Thursday night, about eight o'clock, as ZACHA RIAU WALTERS, servant to Mr. DEBENHAM, of Cam berwell, was returning home, after making several purchases in the Borough for his master's family, he was suddenly attacked neafthe Alms-houses, beyond the Elephant and Castle, by a gang of more than a dozen in number, who, under pretence of a general battle amongst themselves, hemmed him round, hus tled him from one to the other, and at length knocked him down. In the confusion, his basket, containing the goods, disappeared, and the pretended combatants then commenced a running fight. Walters called the watch, and Edwards, a patrol, came promptly to kis aid ; but the villains had got clear off. The basket contained grocery, spices, and a considerable quail tity of lace, the whole of which cost £2 16s. The house of Mrs. CATHERINE CARVER, of No. 18, Duke-street, Portland-place, was lately robbed by means of the following stratagem :—Saturday week, two women knocked at the door, and said they had picked up a letter in the street, which they believed was intended for that house. It was directed to a female servant in the house of the name of Mary Garmel. On opening it, it appeared to come from her brother, who resides in the country, announcing that it was his intention to be in town in the course of the following week. On Thursday evening, in the following week, a man called at the house with ano ther letter, purporting also to come from tie ser vant's brother. He told her that he should go to the Docks of the Surrey Canal, at Walworth, the next morning, where he should see her brother. S.ie asked the man into the front kitchen, where she left him while she went up stairs to write an answer to the letter, and to get a shilling from her mistress to give the man for his trouble. She returned and gave both to the man, who went away. In about two hours after he was gone, she discovered that the cup board in the front kitchen had been robbed of a num ber of silver table and tea-spoons, &c. The robber, whose name proves to be Samul Davis, has since been traced out. He was yesterday examined at Bow- , street, and also Charlotte Daggett, Henry Bury, and Thomas Turner, charged with being accessaries in the robbery. They were all committed. Thursday night, some thieves stole some lead pipes and sheet lead from the Church of St. Margaret's, Westminster. The robbery was committed after dat k, and it was not observed by the watchman, though his box is very near the VOL: ROBBERY AT BRIXTON HOUSE OF CORRICTtON .- A flour-mill having been erected for the purpose of af fording employment to the prisoners, it was disco vered a few days ago, after they had done work, that a quantity of the flour had been stolen. The same thing was discovered on the two succeeding days.— Upon inquiry, an aperture was found in the wall at ' the back of the mill leading into the prisoner; wards, through which they had stolen the flour, and made cakes of it. CHEAP PROVISIONS.—In a town in the North nt Devon, it was lately announced by the public crier, that prime joints of mutton were to be had at 149. per lb. and a person actually purchased a fine wetheT leg of mutton, at Tivetton, for somewhat less.

The inns, we believe, were completely filled ; but then there was little or no demand for private lodgings ; and in this way the Assemblies, Ordinaries, and Public Breakfasts, were far from being crow ded. Among the company were— The Marquis and Marchioness of Queensberry, Lord Fick°, Lord Kelburn, Sir John 11. Maxwell, Bart. Sir William Max well, Bart. Sir Alexander Murray, of Broughton, and Lady r Ann Murray ; Sir Alexander Johnstone and Lady ; Mr. and Mrs. Graham, of 3.lossknow ; Sir Alexander Dun, Mr. and Mrs. Hunter, of Barjarg ; Lady Torphichen, J.

Advocate; Thomas Grierson, Esq. ditto; and Robert Whigham, Esq. ditto. MATCH AN CHATHAM LINES. Wednesday, a Race was decided on Chatham Lines, which had excited great interest, between a small blood mare, belong ing to Mr. E. WICKHAM, of Chatham, and a celebrated gal loway, belonging to Mr. Covrwar, well known in the neigh bourhood of Canterbury, as the " Pepper Pony." The o dd s at starting were 6 to 4 on the galloway, and bets were anxiously sought for at those terms. The mare had never run before, and had been constantly used as a roadster, but when she was stripped for the race bets became more equal, and in twu seconds after starting it was evident the galloway had not the slightest chance of winning; the mare ran clean away from him, and won the rare without appearing to have been put to her speed—she per formed the mile within two minutes. HUNTING. The Earl of Derby's Hunting Stud and Staghounds !elk Knowsley, in Lancashire, on Wednesday last, for his Lordship's ►eat, the Oaks, in Surrey. The Surrey Foxhounds meet on Monday, at Pratt's Bottom; on Thursday, at Hannay Green; and on Saturday, at Limps field Common. The Harriers meet on Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday nest, at Kennel. Lord Anson's Hounds meet on Monday, at GopsaL The Cheshire Winn& meet on Monday . , at Shiplirook Bridge; on Wednesday, at High Legh ; on Friday, at Booth's Obelisk ; and en Saturday, at Miccledale. Sir Richard Puleston's Hounds meet on Tuesday, at Iscoed Park ; and on Friday, at Penley Green. The Crexton Hounds meet on Monday and Wednesday, at places to be fixed at the Cover; and on Friday at the Two-Vot- House. _ _ The Worcestershire Hounds meet on Monday, at Bredon Hill; on Wednesday, at Cliffy Wood; and on Saturday, at Worcester Pcrry Wood. INNOCENT SPORTSMEN. In the sporting season of 1784, on the day before one of the annual parties at Clumber broke up, two sets of sportsmen went out, each consisting of three persons, and a bet was laid which should ►ill mot game. Lord Liscotzt, General Pamirs, and Captain LASCILLI4II, were the one patty ; and their antagonists were the Rev. Mr. LASCILLES, Mr. COTTON, and Lieutenans. Colonel STeaCaLAND. It was calculated that, on an average . , each man of the six got sixty shots. The winning triumvirate killed—three birds ! In 1806, four Gentleman of Camberwell unJertook, for a wager of five guineas aside, to shoot at twelve pigeons, and great bets were depending, but to the great amusement of the pt-noes assembled to witness the determination of the ‘otger, nut one of the competitors biought down a single bird ! —Percy itgviluics. * Lord GWyDyR'S cabriolet still excels all others for taste and neatness. It can only be equalled by the chariot lately launched by his Lordship, which was the object of great admiration among the Parisians. Sir CHARLES BANIFYLD still keeps up his four-in hand in the same spirited style he did thirty years ago. The Baronet's roans eclipse all others. Sir GILBERT HEATHCOTE took with him to Paris a set of the finest horses ever bred in this country. John Bull's wonder at 'Alounsieur Nong-tong••paw's 'ubiquity could not be greater than the astowshmer.t of a French Gentleman who popped into Ilisn's Office the other day to inquire after the Capitals.—" You vill he so good to tell me de nombre of de Capital you tire—you draw yesterday?"— " Why, Sir, there were..."—" Restez un pen, stay a littel moment.
