JEAssr, JuLr 4. His Majesty's brig the SIiaLDHAVE returned here en Saturday, flum a cruize on the French coast. She having touched, Friday l ast , on is a complete wreck , ,rock, about four miles from France; she was obliged to cut her masts and throvi her guns overboard. Slit s going over to be repaired. Saturday last we had a thunder storm, accompa nied with hailstones of an extraordinary size, some of then weighing near an ounce, and upwards .of four inches in circumference. For a quarter of an hour revious to its falling, a dreadful noise, much resern ling that of a distant water fall, greatly alarmed the inhabitants ; happily for the island, It was very P artial and did little mischief, except in St. Helier a nd its neighbourhood, where it was felt most severely; Mere is hardly a house but had windows broken, the freen-houses are nearly. uncovered, and the crops in ae g ardcns materially damaged ; the lightning struck o ns of the flag-staffs on the town-hill, and shivered it to pieces. MARGATE, JULT 5. This place begins to fill apace. Most ache houses in Hawley-square are taken, chiefly by our old visitors. Two packets arr:Yed yesterday, having upwards of 150 passengers. Great improvements are making in High-street. It is scarcely possible to describe the' devastation that has been committed by the late 'storm. The workmetl arc busily employed in building a .strong wall, from the corner of the Parade to the door.of the King's Head, in High-street. The Parade is entirely completed, but the Pier will take a long time to com plete, as there is not of the parapet above six !yards, but what are laid even with the walk, except a small abutment at the end. The sea made a complete pas sage between, from the place where the eapstern was erected to the Jetty Head. It is the intention of the Commissioners for making a new l'ier, to extend it a considerable distance in a direct line; in short, the devastation that has been committed must be seen to be understood. Many thousands come down to view the place. We expect a very full season, as the library hooks are much fuller than was ever known at this time of the season ; and last night both BE, rtsoN's and GAR rart's were filled with good company. Among the company lately arrived are, Ladles Brooke arid Hamilton—Colonels Mordaunt, Jones, and Percher—Captain Mitchell—Reverends Mr. Legg, Mr. Evans, and Mr. Jones—Mr. and Mrs. Devaynes, Miss Baynton, Mrs. and three Misses Wright, Sir Nathani , 4 Dance, Dr. Brown, Mr. Simpson and family, Mr. Griffiths, Mr. and Mrs. Israeli, Mr. /oilmen antifamily, Mrs. and Miss Telfair, Mr. and Mrs. James Dixon, Mr. and Mrs. Heathcote, Miss Bampton, Sec.

CITY MUATIC GALA. Yesterday morning a large flag, bearing the City emblem:, was hoisted at Stangate, opposite the Waterman's Arms. At half past twelve the LOAD MAYOR and LADY MAYOKES arrived in their carriage, together with the Sheriffs, se veral Aldermen and their Ladies, with the Gentlemen of his Lordship's household. They proceeded up the River, the Band of the West Londan Militia in a cut ter, playing 5' God Save the Kitt . ,;, " Rule Britannia," " Britons Strike Home," and " 0 the Roast Beef of Old England." The state barge was superbly de corated with banners, but what rendered the rcerte roost delightfully attracting was the assemblage, of beautiful females, many of whom took theis station on the summit of th.f vessel. We are happy to find, that the accident which oc curred while the 7th regiment of Dragoons was exer cising on Sunday, (not Saturday, as statedin yester day's paper), was not rzf the serious kind that was reported. The regiment was out very early for three hours: two men fell, but they were not materially hurt ; one of them is again fit for duty, and the,other is doing as well as possible. NORTHERN FA IRS.—At Yethholm Fair, on Mon day se'nntlit, there was a full shew of sheep and Cattle ' • the demand for sheep was not so great as might have been expected, considering the great loss in winter and spring, and prices were reduced "cne third from last year. There were some demand for cattle is good condition, but at reduced prices also ; very little demand for lean ones, which were the greater number. • At Earlston Fair, on Wednesday se'nright, sheep had little sale, and at reduced prices. There was a very full market of black cattle ; the few in forward condition were sold at good prices. At Morpeth, on Wednesday sennight, there was a. very full market of cattle, sheep and lambs ; the de mand was very great, but many were left unsold.— Beef from 7s. 6d. to Bs. 3d.

Yesterday the SeSsions commenced in the nee Guildhall, for the first time, before WiLLIAM MAIN. WAIUNG, Esq• and a Bench of Magistrates. Mr. MAINWARING, on the opening of the Sessions took Occasion to congratulate the Grand Jury on thei i . first appearance in the new Sessions house, which he , hoped would be found in all respects adapted to Facie litate the public business. The building, he said, b id been erected precisely according to the Act of Perlis. merit for the improvement of Westminster ; but ha, regretted that e from circumstances unavoidable, the • edifice-could not be completed before the next Session, by which time he hoped all the decorations , would he finished. He used .the same opportuni'y to express his regret thet the City of the British Empire, which was the seat of Government, should have a long time laboured under so principal a defect, while every town in England had its town hall. The inha. bitants of Westminster would, ne was persuaded, know how to appreciate so useful an embellishment to that part of their city. The Court then proceeded to business, and. the only trial of any importance was that of Thomas Fran. • cais4 Corer.( Th St. filae:in, for an 'assault on the per son .of Mary Smith, on the 26th of March last. The proseceti ix is a Hanoverian, and, 'though *she appear ed well to understand, but very imeeActly spoke English. From her evidence, however, it appeared, that she was by prefessien a hair-weaver, but had been in the service of a French General in London, which the Defendant, a French Nobleman, and 1 ' married man, induced her to quit, under pretence that he would marry her, and make her a Site lady. In 'stead, however, of raising her to the dignity of law ful wedlock, he succeeded in persuading her to a part nerehip in illicit love, and shebecame pregna: •.' On Saturday the 29th of March, the Delene,tv. oe her at her lodgings in King -street, Golds:, --~,,bee, when she told him her situation, reproached hint with his cruelty and breach of promise, and called on to fulfil his connubial engagement. Defendant de, vied that he was the author ef her misfortune, ex pressed his doubts that she was in the situation she stated, and proceeded to treat her with cruel and un manly violence ; and he continued tiers treatment until the poor creature, unable to support the age ny she suffered, fainted away on her bed, and, on being a little recovered, the Defendant, by way of friendly consolation, advised her to take a couple of garrets, where she might get rid of her burdsn unsuspected, aqd he would pay the rent. The Defendant then left her, and the maeter cf the prosecutrix - who furnished her with work, called the following day, and to him she explained her situation, and complained of the ill treatment she had received, and' desired to have the assistance of a midwife, to whom she might with decorum explain- the violence she had sustained. On her cross-examination, the prosecutrix said, that she had cried aloud with agony while receiving the ill-treatment from the Defendant, but did not proceed to require assistano from the inmates of the house, through motives or dehcacy, add unwillingness to ex pose her unfortunate :sZitation. . Her testimony - Fas, in a: principal degree, corrobo rated by Menieci, a foreigner, who is a perruquier, in Carnabl Market, and employed the prosecutrix in weaving hair for him. He caned at her apartments on the 29th. of. March, but did not eater ; for, while he stood about Elie. minutes at the door, he heard a female voice expressing tones of anguish as if from cruel treatment ; and he heard, at the same time, the voice of a man exclaiming, in accents of sarcasm " poll I poh I poh !" He, however, did not make any alarm, nor did suppose any thing very violent, as lie did not hear the cry of murder. • During the evidence of this witness, the unfortu. nate prosecutrix fell into a fit, and continued some time 'seemingly inanimate ; but, on her revival, she was seized with the'violent pains of parturition, and was sent home in a hackney coach. Elizabeth Parr, a midwife, proved that she atten ded the prosecutrix on the .30th of March, thoday subsequent to the brutal treatment she had received. The defence set up by the Learned CounsA was, that this Was a fabricated story, invented for the pur pose of extorting a sum of money from this respec table foreigner, and that the prosecutrix was so aban doned a woman in vice and infamy, as to attach the strongest suspicion of her veracity. Two witnesses were called to prave that she was a common prostitute ; but neither of them would take upon themselves, to give her that charaCter. The Jury found the Defendant Guilty ; .and the Court sentenced him to p ty a fine of 101. - thc. v:hdlo of which was ordered to be sent to the prosecu.rix. Wednesday evening, as a gentleman in crxrpany with two ladies, was crossing the fields towards Prirn rose-hill, the ladies were daringly insulted by a sci of fellows, by casting hay, &c. at them, and on the gen tleman interfering, he was knocked down, and a,bomi• nably ill-treated. A third . person, a tradesman in Fetter-lane, on ; remonstrating .with the rabl,le for their brutality, was treated V 4 so much cruelty, that he iv-as unable to walk off the ground. Warrants are issued for the apprehension of several of the offen ders: Thii . is a nuisance which prevails more or less, at this time of the year; in all the fields in the victuity of the metropolis, and loudly demands the attention of the Police. A child seven years of age, the daughter of Mrs. Kempt, of Portland-street, was decoyed from the door of her parent on Wednesday morning, by twv elderly women, under pretence of buying her fruit, and after having been stripped of her clotl:us, she was found weeping at the door of a gentleman's house in Charlotte-street, at ten o'clock at night, wrapped in a filthy garment.' The child was able to give infor mation where she lived, and was conveyed home to her disconsolate mother. The miscreants"have not yet been detected. Yesterday afternoon as the.servant rsf Mr. Mann. builder, in-Piccadilly, was driving his master's cai-t, and sitting on one of the shahs, through Upper George-street, Edgeware Road, the horse rock Incin. by which meets the man fell, and one'of t?te whcelc passing directly over his head, he'was killed on the spot. This is another melancholy instance, of the necessity of enforcing cart and witggon.drirers f rom sitting in this position. -
