They have taken several value- Me Spanish vessels.—July S.—" The British Steam Packet rigged as a three masted schooner, arrived at Gediz yester day; she was detained by the French squadron for about two bours."—July S.—" The Steam Packet stated yester day to have arrived at Cadiz, it now appears was not allow ed to enter that Port by the blockading squadron, but her passengers and mail were sent onshore, and she afterwards steered to the Eastward." eXt - rect of a letter from a Gentleman at Van Dlemen's Land, to his friend at Edinburgh:— " The person who introduces respectable females will be the greatest Wrnefactor to this island ; and It can be dons without loss, for the Governor has engaged to make a grant of from 80 to 100 acres of lend to every woman of cha racter who will come out; end if the land did not pay the whole expenses of her passage, the person who should marry the woman would willingly pay the balance. As I cannot get home just now, if some of your Female Societies would send lee out from one to two hundred respectable females, I shall be happy to take charge of them on arrival. 1 shall remit the cash advanced with the least possible delay; but as it is necessary that the females should come out under proper patronage, some of the ladies would best come out in charge of them; and it they are not above 80, I shall undertake to Set them well provided for. If you have lei sure to read the Commissioner's report respecting these co lonies, it will give you a good deal of insight into their pre sent state. I ern disposed to think it pretty correct." ISIRWCASTLE-UNDIR LTNB ELECTION.—AY the close of the Poll on Monday, the numbers were, fur Mr. Denison, 96; for Mr. Ileathcote, 69. PARLIAMENTARY Ds NN 1111.—The usual annual dinner, on the close of the Session, to the clerks, and officers of the House, was given by the Speaker, on Monday, in his official dining-room, where he entertains the Mem bers during the Session, and which is situated directly underneath the House of Commons. It is a large and curious room, with antique decorations. At the Speaker's dinner there were near forty persons present; besides the chaplain, the secretary, the clerks at the table, &c., there were the other officers, clerks, Ike, of the House. The Speaker is celebrated for his dinners, and this did himcredit. PRINCE 1111.112 AT.—This gentleman, whose name is Charles Louis Napoleon Achille Murat, born at Paris, and 22 years of age, reported himself in the Marine Court, on Saturday, as a necessary step towards &miscal ls stion.—(A r ere Pt* Paper, June 23.) Yesterday the Lord Mayor held a Court of Aldermen. A Petition from the Company of Watermen and Light *men was presented, praying them to revise their By law', and increase the present rate of Fares payable to Witermen, which was read. Tile Cited directed the sum of 8,3001 to be paid off the Orphans' Fund, and the usual notices given to the parties Interested. It was or dered by the Court, that Brokers applying out of Court to be admitted as Custom House Agents, agreeably to the late Act of Parliament, should previously obtain a certificate at the 'Town Clerk's Office, of their being ad mitted and sworn as Brokers, and the Lord Mayer was thereupon requested to sign the tame, recommending tire Commissioners of his Majesty's Customs to admit them accordingly. The indefatigably benevolent Mr. Owen has addressed a Letter" to the Nobility, Gentry, Professions, Bankers, Merchants, and Master Maoufactarers," on the subject I of Ireland, in which he invites all who take an interest in the subject, to meet him at the City of London Tavern, Dishopsgate, on 'Tuesday , the 29th instant. In this let ter Mr. Owen expresses it as his belief, that " there has been a sincere and honest desire on the part of Achninis. tration, Parliament, and People, to diminish the suffer ings of Ireland to the utmost extent in their power, con 'latently a ith the p tion of the present system of • Government in that Island ; but under the present sys tem they find it impracticable to afford bet relief." Mr. Owen proposes to show the possibility of introducing " another anal a better system, without creating violence irritation, or anger, or without injury to the private in' tetra' of any one." SUBSCRIPTIONS IN SCOTLAND IN BEHALF OF THE SPANIARDS.—A public meeting was held iu Kilsyth on the loth inst., when, after passing several Resolutions expressive of their sympathy for the Spaniards under thew present sufferings, and their abhorrence of the base violators of the rights and liberties of that people, it was unanimously agreed to enter into a subscription in aid of the Patriotic Spaniards. —(Glasgow Chronicle) Duertec—The meeting called to consider the pro priety of opening a Subscription for the Spaniards, was held yesterday in the Caledonian Hall, and we have no doubt that from the feeling which pervades all ranks and parties in the town, the subscription will be general and iiheral.—(Dundee Advertiser.) PAISLEY.—Lis Paisley a general anxiety had prevailed to obtain a public opportunity of expressing the indig nation felt at the sufferings inflicted on the Spanish ea tion. The only difficulty was by what party or by oboe 1 a Meeting should be convened that should be most elfetie teal for the purposes in view. It wag ultimately resolimi that a preliminary meeting should take place, and a meeting was accordinely held, consisting chiefly of me chanics, which gave birth to another on the 9th instant, of such gentlemen of the town, whose known attachmest to public freedom and liberal principles, would bars the requisite weight on the occasion. This meeting was adjourned to the 14th instant, when Mr. Stewart, merchant, High-street, was called td the Chair. when it was, among other things, resolved that a subscription should be immediately opened in aid of the suffering Spa niards. Another meeting of the labouring classes was held in ' the hall of the Salutation Inn, to hear the report of the proceedings already stated; and to appoint a committee to forward the object of the intelligent and respectable body who had taken the prominent part in the business. It is understood that the committees of the two bodies will form a junction to frame some resolutions, or to issue an address, expressive of the abhorrence so cene rally felt respecting the atrocious designs of the Conti / bents! Despots. The Magistrates have issued orders for the suppression of "Barns' and "Chiswick" fairs, pursuant to the Powers Vested in them by the New Police Act. Those fairs are declared not to have been warranted by any ch•nera. ...,. i THEATRICALS. Ones! HOI7/111. In the repetitidn of the part of Utt.si, in the Miller's Maid last night, Mr. RATI4III played with encreased effect. The strong intimate@ Of passion which the writer Intended to pourtray, renders it impossible to giro too much energy to the feelings; but the language is weak, and common-place ; and does not always bear tip the actor as .it should. Mr. BAKIII. plaks George with great spirit, and discretion; and the whole piece is well supported. ANNOYANCES IN HTDII Plitt.--.110 consequence of the shameful conduct of the idle fellows who infestHydePark, the Magistrates have been indefatigable in endeavouring to abate these nuisances, and several persons of loosechs. racter have been apprehended and committed for varioui• periods to the House of Correction. Yesterday afternoon while William Jennings, one of the Bow Street Petrole, was on this duty in the Park, he saw a fellow, io a postil• lion's garb, exposing his person in a most indecent man ner in the much frequented walk from Kensington Gar den to Cumberland Gate. After watching him for some time, and observing his condo ct before some most re spectably dressed females who we re passing, the officer took him into custody, and in the wening brought him before Mr. Ron the Magistrate, at Marlborough street Police-olfice. Wben put to the bar, he gave his name as George Somerfield, and on being called upon to an swer the charge, he, after some equivocation, totally de nied it ; but the Magistrate not crediting the pretence he made use of in his defence, sent him booted and spurred, on an excursion to the Tread Mill. The Paris Papers of Sunday, which arrived last night, contain no intelligence from Spain, or from any other quarter. KNAMNR& Tama --The unhappy differences be tween the masters and weavers still exist ; and there does mot appear any attempt at reconciliation from tidier party. The place of meeting is changed from the Long Flat to the Castle Yard, where, every evening, a very large concourse of people is assembled ; and when, at ter hearing two or three orations, they quietly disperse. From fifty to sixty of the weavers have left the town every day in search of employment elsewhere, and so far the number at the place of rendezvous is decreased; but the interest of the scene is greatly kept op by the anxious attention of the women and children, who are sensibly alive to any communication bearing on this un happy disunion. Our correspondent laments that no one has yet come forward to consider this question is all its bearings, and to endeavour to reconcile differ ences, which it is so much the interest of both parties to have speedily and permanently adjusted.— (Leeds hfercury ) A Correspondent says—" The Barnsley Weavers are beginning their work again ithout the Feat."—(lbid.) On Sunday last, a Camp Meeting of " Independent , Methodists," was held at the Ballast Hills, near this town, by permission of the Mayor. Every thing, as far as we can learn, was carried on with decency and order. The meeting continued from ten o'clock in the morning till eight in the evening, during which time some thou sands of persons' were addressed by different speakers At the close, the "Independents" adjourned to the Ebeneser Chapel, and "spent the night," according to an account we bays received from one of their leader% " in exhortation and prayer."—(Aeweastk Chron.) CAUTION TO TRAVEL/JCRS NT ST6lllL—Yestsrday, a large collection of persons assembled on board the Royal Sovereign, for the benevolent purpose of addles , the profits of a pleasant excursion as far as the Nore to the limited means of a charity, the Union Schools of Wap ping, were proceeding, with music and dancing,down the river, one of them incautiously placed himself on the top of one of the cases which covers the wheels. From accident, a bolt which fastened one of the paddles gave way, and the paddle struck against the case and forced three or four boards from the top. The unfortunate young man, who was lying on them, bad but a few moments before been requested by the Steward to withdraw from his position, as being one which was always dangerous. He still lingered; the boards flew up; and he sought to grasp at some means of safety. The wheel was moving with great velocity, and although instantly stopped, the unfortunate man was forced beneath the boat. Every means were immedi ately used to recover the body, bnt they were ineffectual, for he bad sunk to rise no more! The conductor of the expedition instantly ordered the boat to return. The music and merriment ceased, and the party returned to town, much affected with the melancholy fate of one wbu bag, on that morning, been induced by the solicitation of some young friends to join the excursion. His name was Fox, a young man lately established as a Grocer in Oxford-street, of industrious habits and irreproachable conduct. He bad but two months ago married, and left his bride in all the buoyancy of life and spirits. It Is but justice to add, that no blame is attributable to the, master or any of the persons connected with the steam boat. A further dividend was, on Monday last, ordered to be paid to the creditors of the late Bank of Cotter and Kelletg.l The sum to be distributed is 43,0001. which, on 50C,0001., the amount of the debts, makes a dividend of gs. Od. in the pound. It appears that there are lands of considerable value, of which the sales have not yet been completed, and that their produce is expected to be applicable to a farther dividend in November next.—(Cork (Aron.) A few days ago, Mrs. Fo-ter, of Crowhurst, near Be tte, and her daughters, after taking their tea, were sud denly seized with violent sickness, which with other alarming symptoms, left no doubt of their illness being the effect of poison ; no time was therefore lost in calling in medical assistance, which, w, are happy to say, proved wholly successful, though the youngest daughter re mained some days in a doubtful state. The cause of the threatening mischief did not lung remain bidden, for it was coon discovered, that the water for the tea had been boiled in a copper kettle, which had just before been dis possessed of its fur or inner coating,6y seraping,whereby the water was impregnated by the poisonous quality of the copper, which, in all propability, had not skilful aid been promptly resorted to, would have been attended with fatal consequences. The herring fishing continues to do well, particularly about Campbelton, Isle of Man, and Loch Long ; it is seldom that the fish are so large, and of such good qua lity. Eight boats arrived ore Friday at the Broo,uielaw, Glasgow, and supposing each to have eight mazes (500 to a maze), the supply would in the whole amount to 32,000. The herring fishery on the North Devon Coast, at this unusual season, has been so productive. that 40 were sold for one shilling in Barnstaple market, for several days last week successively.—(West Briton.) ' The pilchards have made an early visit to this coast, strbEch is considered extraordinary from the cold season. Last week the drift nets off Looe caught 1100, and on Monday about 2,000. They were remarkably fine fish, and being the first, were sold the following day in this town at 6d. a dozen.—(PlymoNtA Telegraph.) A short time shier, Mr. I. Nicholson, of Keswick, caught In one day, In Loweswater Lake, the aConishing weight end umber of fish, by angling, as follows :-30 eels, aver- I aging Sibs each, 601b5.--3 trout, weighing together IBMs.— pike, tlolbs.-16 pike, averaging Sibs. each, 481b5.-- , Total, ibo:bs. A feat la angling never isqualleit, perhaps, in this I I part of the country.—(Carltrie Patriot.) . tHE STATESMAN. ~, - . ' .. j . : ,~~y - ..~...

A LTRILITION IN Mg PATZA/SNT or ST. James's Squaaa.—We are informed it is finally arranged that the Pavement of St. James's Square is to be immediately taken up, and the whole Macadainized.—Cho estimate for re pairing 0)0 old Pavement is said not to have been leas than 6,0001., whereas It is expected that it will be com pleted on the new principle for about 5001. This experi ment, as it may be called, is one of very considerable interest, for if it succeed, the plan cannot fail of being speedily adopted in other streets of the metropolis. The advantages anticipated, however, are not only of less expence, but there will be less noise; the streets will be easier kept clean in winter, and will require a less gain city of water in summer, and there will be less chance of accidents both to horses and carriages.--(lforning Paper.) A NTIQUITILL—MoreRoman relies(urns,coins,&c.)have been found during the present week, on the Mount, near this city ; and about ten days ago, a most extensive and beautiful tesselated pavement was discovered in a stack i yard occupied by Mr. T. Pybus, at Aldburgh, near Bo roughbridge. It was found about 2i feet from .the sur face, whilst digging a drain; and we are informed it is in extent 8 yards by 6. It is enriched in various parts with beantrftd circles, ornamented by wreaths of the most brilliant colours, chiefly red, white, and blue.— ( York Herald) SINGULAR .ell/CUMSTANer.—We have beard the fol lowing account so well authenticated, teat the extra. ordinary facts which it contains may he relied on as correct Some days ago a young lady, of exquisite beauty and proportionable symmetry of person, happened to call to the usual manner, at a lady's shop, not one hundred miles, or yards either from Sackville-street. —There she happened to be recognized by an old gentleman of very interesting and gentleman-like appearance, who upon the beau.iful ineugaita hay icg ordered some articles to be sent home which she paid for, and baying gone away herself—made very minute inquiries of the lady in the shop, who the personage was that had just gone away? He received at first a very cool reception, but on pressing the lady to say a few words to him in private, be related the following story, with looks of anguish and anxiety ! He said, he was a native of the sister island, and amassed a large fortune. That he bad but one child, a female, upon woofs) he la wished most profusely the best education and accom plishments which the country afforded. It so happened that some time ago she had privately left his house ; and that in a disconsolate state, he traversed every part of the Continent in vain, and had not seen her since unit the moment be entered the shop. For, said he, with eyes streamiug with anguish " that lady, madam, is my daughter ! !" Hcr address was immediately pointed out by the respectable lady of the shop, and thither the father hastened ! But here comes the strangest part of all, for behold the fair fugitive denied all knowledge or acquaint ance with her own father! and absolutely and poaatively refused p hue conVirriation with him ! ! 'foe tether sow seemed more disconsolate than ever, resorted to the official authorities for assistance and advice, and all we know is, that when he returned to where Isis daughter bad lodged, he found she had decamped, and left him in melancholy conjectures to pursue his forlorn and uncertain pilgrimage until time or remorse may find their way to this lost and unnatural fugitive's heart—if not heartless, who with unnatural power disowned any 'knowledge of her parentage and birth„--(.lrmagh Vu ' ) A meeting of the inhabitants was held at the Town Hall, which was crowded in every part, on hursilk;• evening, to take into consideration the propriety of al tering the present name of this town to one more indica tive of its risfng wealth and importance. After much argument, it was unanimously resolved-Ist, That bet a...sof the town should lass changed ; and 2 sly, That a committee of twenty-one gentlemeolabould be chosen for the purpose of laguiring tato the feesibilit, of the oVert, and the best means of carrying the same into effect, the result of which is to be communicated to a p srish meet ing to be held on the Ist of October next. It is not ge- , nerally known to strangers that Plymouth Duck is two miles distant from Plymooth—contains within it the Royal Naval Arsenal, and in its harbour a groat part of the Navy of England—is the seat of the Port Admiral and Military Lieutenant Governor, and has a population of above 33,000 inhabitants (exclusive of the navy and army), which is daily increasing from the number of re spectable families attracted to the spat by the delightful situation of the place, and the cheeped/a of all toe neces saries of life.—(Plymouth 7'elegroph.) The prospect of building a bridge across the Tamar at Saltash is about to undergo a public discussion ; and we earnestly hope its practicability will be ascertained, and that it will be found capable of being erected at a moiler ate expence. Its advantage Ap the landed proprietors sold occupiers of land on the western banks of the Tamar are so obvious; that it would be needless to moment* them; the value of land would probably increase, proportion ably to its vicinity to the bridge, from 51. to RV. per cent.; but places of residence on the banks of the r. mar, St. Germans, and Lynher rivers, or sites on which they could be erected, would probably increase 50/. p r cent. Neither must we overlook the advantages that will result to these towns, from opening a more really. safe, and commodions communication with a large dis trict, capable of vast improvement in its agriculture, and making them a principal, if not the principal entrance into Cornwall. In a more extensive point of view we hail the introduction of improvements into the west of England, which must materially contribute to raise us to an elevation with the most cultivated and improved dis tricts of Great Britain.—(ibid.) DRAINING Lanes HOLLAND.—The States of the province of Holland opened their session on the 7th in• Istant. The Governor, in his speech, informed the as sembly, that a plan for draining the Lake of Haarleut rand the ' Bylmeer was under consideration. He con chided by holding out a confident expectation of this great undertaking being accomplished. The Lake of Haarlem, which communicates with the Zuyder-Zee by the river Y, is extensive, bit not deep; it is about 14 miles long, and from 7to 10 broad. According to tra dition, it was formed in the year 860, at the satue time that-the Rhine was intercepted by the formation of sand hanks near Cetwyck ; but some persons who have inves tigated the subject, are of opinion that this event must have taken place at a period considerably more recent. Isis stated in old chronicles, that an irruption of the sea destroyed at o&ce 17 villages, and according to accounts published not many years ago, vestiges of habitations were still to be seen. There is a popular story of a . no -biennia who resided in this part of Holleud, escaping from the great inundation, in conseqiience of observing a miring fish in oue of the Takes of his estate. He hence mastelusled, that the sea was underming part of the coast lerbich served as a bulwark against it, and immediately rerweved with his family. A contract is concluded with canard to the Bylineer, And the works are to commence melt spring.' -- - a.- SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. CHELMSFORD RACES.—Tursost, JULY 9.2.
