Mr. S. traced the fellow along the country and discovered that he was changing horses every two miles, which made Mr. S. increase his speed, and got a-head of the fellow while lie was changiog horses, after a rapid Chace of nine milos. Mr. Spri, was immediately after joined by Capt Godfrey sod his intrepid party, who cause forward at lox-honting speed, and surrounded the suspected places of concealment, having first placed some trusty men (tenants of Sir Jolt's Godfrey, and called upon by Mr. Spring) to watch the road, they then proceeded to search the homes and fields; after mune time they were iitiornied by Gilts Rae, L.q. a magistrate, where the fellow lay concealed in a furze ditch, where he was at length found au'l secured.

The noble Lord concluded a 1)00* speech, by observing, that an institution like the one he was advocating, and which already, by its example, hail done ru touch good, should never want his curd tal support —(Applause.) The Hev.

This had been obviated in the esta blishment of the FloatingCliapel, where numbers would willingly go, as they could hear the (jospel preached to them within the nooden walls which had defended his conutry. Alter 10/111e general remarks, the reverend gentleman einicluded amidst a thunder of applause, by seconding the motion, which was then put from the chair, and carried unanimously. The Rev. U.
