c THEATRICALS. --....-- Mr, YOUNG commenced his labours for this season, in the character of Hamlet, last evening. This part in his bands, is distinguished by the most extraordinary and successful elfor's of industry, combined with genius. As a whole, it is one of the most effective performances upon the stage; though there are portions of Kean's Hamlet which we prefer. The house was well attended, and this popular per former greeted with the moat affectionate welcome. Mr. !thermal:Pi last night also made his first appearance at the other house, in his most effective character—that of rirgini us. Should any one question his excellence here, he might use the words of the play, and ask, " Is not wine own, mine own ?" The house was crowded, and the plaudits on the entrance of Mr. MACREADY were .lung, ardent, and unanimous. RASTER OFFERINn3.—The late discussion in this town ba the right of tire Clergy, to Easter Offerings, has we find excited Much interest, and great anxiety prevails that the question should be tried in a superior court, in order that the matter may be set at rest one way or the other, For this purpose a public subscription has been set on foot, and a considerable sum already subscribed. To give our readers some idea of the interest which the working classes feel on this subject, it is only necessary to state that, in one week. their small subscriptions of a few pence each, amounted to nearly St. Subscriptions of a higher amount have also been contributed by many of the wore wealthy inhahitants,—(Leicester Chronicle.) The Duke of Buckingham is one of the youngest grandfathers in the English Peerage. Families of great rank and fortune are always anxious that the heir should marry young. The birth of an heir to the house . of Buckingham was celebrated on Monday last, at Aylesbury, by a dinner and other festivities ; venison and game were furnished by the Duke. The Marquess of Chandos gave a grand entertains ment at Wolton, on Thursday, upon the same occasion.— The Unice of Buckingham was present, and after dinner, observing several gen•lemen from Aylesbury present, took an opportunity of remarking, that, " although great differ ence of political opinion had existed between the inhabitants of that place and himself, he hoped it was nearly at an end." He %No declared, that " there hail been some political diffetences between him and his noble brother (i.ord Nngent), but those were totally at an end."—(Clacks Chronicle.) RIUIITS or SEPULTURC—Under this head the Dublin Evening Post of Saturday last, contains an ample and explicit contradiction to the statement which had been published in the Courier, as an affidavit of the Sex ton of St. Kevin. The occurenees which took place in the Churchyard, at the funeral of the late Mr. Arthur D'Arcy, are sworn to by three of his relatives who were oresen:; and the misre presentation of tit- fact', published in the Courier, is proved by the acknow led gement of the Sexton, to have been ~either furnished our autoorized by him, hits was, as he said, a mere Newspaper paragraph, for which he was not to be made accountable. It was stated in The Evening Mail of Wednesday last. that some personal indignity lr iii been offered to the Lord Bishop of Kilmore in the triblic street, on his pro ceeding to dine at the Mansion !louse on Tuesday. We are very glad to be able to sty that the statement is al together groundless, and the story a mere invention.— (Derts.'in Evening Post.) An export entry of rather a novel description in this emtatry, cock place a few days ago, namely, a quantity of hied Manufactured Hosiery, shipped for London. Ile .• OW of the articles which, by the Act of Union, paid a duty of tea per cent. ad valorem, on importation into either country from the other; which duty being weialed after the lOth of October, instant, the article will pass duty free on arrival at Landon.—(Dublin Morn ing Post.) A gentleman just returned from a very extensive tone through the South and West of Ireland, and pall of Lein ster, asserts, that the/allure of potatoe crops is greater in degree, and more universally extended than it was at this season its 1821.-.11 miraculous improvement in the weather may avert it, but at present the state of the potatoe crops offer the mos: awful indication of a general famine in those three provinces, —(Bristol Mercury) This day the new Distillery Act came into operation; and the spirit dealers, whose stocks were run out, are getting in fresh quantities at the reduced ditties. One distiller has 40 carts engtged, another 33, another 21, and so on in supply ing their customers. The spirit dealers lave large labels in their windows, and lisral-bills distri- Ining through the streets, promising a large reduction in price, some to the extent of 4-i. a gallon. One offer is common whiskey at 4s. a gallon, or lid. a gill. A spirit dealer in Parkhead is this morning supplying his custo mers with whiskey at 64 the half-inutchkin and a penny loaf. An Englishman on the roll road went in to treat his neighbour, and bringing out the half-ututchkin stoop and the leaf, exclaimed in rapture, Goo bless the country, Jack, all this for a sixpence." 11w brewers have also brought down the snall-hoer fully 17 per cent, or W. the two-gallon cask.—(Glaagoae Journal.) HATTI.—A Journal, entitled, Le Propagateur Haitien' edited by several Haitier's, has made its appearance. It embraces political and literary subjects, and is said to be conducted with considerable ability. Essays on agrienl tan are inserted with the design of teaching the inhabi tants the Importance of that pursuit, and of engaging than in rural economy. It is affirmed that the island possesses a soil of uneqnsiled fertility, and arms enough to warrant the expectation that. in some vats hence, its products will be doubled or tripled.—(Nere York Paper.) NINETT UM) HIGHLANDERS.—The head-quarters division of the 934 lliglanders sir:welted fast week from Mullingar to Athlone, to be replaced by a small detach anent of Veterans from Birr It is said, that &Irminger shall no longer continue to be the head-quarters of a regi ment. At a dinner given by the Mayor of Beverley, on Mon day, a circumstance of a novel and rather alarming nature occurred.—A coach horse, attracted or alarmed by the music, which was stationed in the yard untie( a window, at one end of the dining-room, broke from the person who was leading him, dashed a ttttt ngst and dispersed the musi cians, overturning their table, chairs, and instruments, and plunged his held through the window into the room where the party was assembled, carrying sway the glass cud frame together. The animal then retreated, making his way down the passage into the street, over numbers of person. who had fled there fur shelter, many of whom were trod upon, and severely, but, it is hoped, not dan gerously, hurt. RICIIARKADLL INIITANCg or LONGEVITT.—The tinder- mentioned 46 persons, inhabitants of the parish of Bexhill, assembled together at the Bell Inn, on the 4th of Jo' e, 1819, to commemorate the Eighty-first Anniversary of .b 6 Birth of our beloved Sovereign King George the Third, whose sges, taken on an average, were as follows: Twenty-five, who dined, SI years—Fifteen, who waited at table, 71 years—and Six, who rung a merry peal on the church bells whilst the above sere at dinner, SI years, leaving a surplus of '2 years and 7 months. They were selected from the whole Male Population, which does not exceed a thousand. The sweet-toothed rats in the West Indies are so busy amongst the sugar canes, that Charles Rose Ellis, Esq, has been induced to sends famous rat catcher (John Roberts, of Seaford) to kill these destructive vermin, ob his estates in Jamaica, at a salary of forty pounds per annum, and board and lodging free of expellee. On Wednesday Ro berts attended here with 17 ferrets and three dogs, to take Jarratt's Van for London, on his way to Blackwell to embark for his destination.—(Sussex Advertiser.) SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.. • DEAL, Ovr. 13.—Remain, the Standard, Lotherington and Can.tdizo packet, for Jamaica ; Medleys, for Demarary; and the Sir Charles M'Carthy, for Sierra Leone; the rest of the outward bound are most of them round the Forrland, but the wind is setting more westward.—Five P.M. Several of the outward hound are again bearing up for the Downs; a South Sea ship from the River is at anchor in the gull stream. FALMOUTH, OCT, 12. —Wind W.S.W.—Sailed the He rald, Pirie, for Sierra Leone. PORTMOCTIf. OCT. 13.—Wind S.W.—His Majesty's Ship, Esk, has been released from quarantine, and sailed to the Eastward. The East India Company's ship Kellie Castle arrived at Madras on the 7th of June; and the ships Herefordshire and Inglis at Bombay about the 27th of May last. THE ATLANTIC AND PACIFIC TO RE sotatert.—The New York Commercial Advertiser states, that the old proposition of uniting the waters of the two great Oceans which wash the Isthmus of Darien has been revived. A proposal has lately been made to the Colombian Government to effect this by a canal from the river Atrsto, which flows into the Atlantic, with the San Juan, which empties into the Pacific. The canal need be but short, as the channel of both these rivers may be deepened for a considerable dis tance up the streams. The projector is a foreigner: he calculates the expense at 200,000 dollars, and will do the whole on condition of receiving the exclusive right of navigating the canal when finished. The President of the Colombian Government, it is said, meditates a visit to the spot. On Wednesday, as the Aire Steam Packet was coming down to this port from Selby, a man of the name of Joseph Percival—(commonly called Thick-le : zed Joe) — was taken on board, as a passenger, ■t Bowden Dike.— Being intoxicated, and extremely qnsrrelsome, the Cap tain was obliged to remonstrate with bins, and threatened to put him on shore. Percival observer!, that was what be wanted ; and that he would snips ashore. Soon after, he mounted the paddle-box, from which he leaped into the water, and immediately sank. The vessel was put round, and every exertion made to save him, but without effect. (Mull Advertiser.) MIL/TAR! PRIVILEGE OF THE GUARDS.—QUEEN-SQUARE. —A complaint was preferred by a Gentleman named Brown, living at No. 2, IYheeler Street, Horseferrprovi, against Serjeant Eason and Corporal Mathews, of the (henmiler or Ist Regiment of Guards, for ill language, and attempting to force into his house, on pretence of being in seArcia for a soldier. Mr. Brown being sworn, stated that after his family retired to rest on the night of the 7th inst. be heard violent knocking at the street door. Mrs. Brown ran into the front parlour, and looking out at the window observed the Defendants, she asked what they wanted, and was answered they were in quest of a soldier of their regiment. Site told them no soldier was in the house, no other person except their own family and an officer's widow was there. This did not satisfy them, and they commenced knocking again so loud tbat he was obliged to run down in a state of nudity, but they demanded an entrance in the King's name, and said, that unless they were admitted, they would force the door open; at the same lime commenced kicking and knocking at the door, and conducting themselves with extreme violence, till he called the watchman, and gave them into custody. The Constable of the night permitted them to go at liberty, and they did not appear till they were summoned for this day. He thought this gross con• duct was an encroachment upon tire . liberty of the subject. The Serjeant in defence said, on the night in question he and the Corporal received orders at the King's Mews Barracks, to see if the men were at their quarters. They went upon this duty all round Knightsbridge end West minster, but one of the men named Nailer had been removed from his quarters in Sloane Street to No. 4 6, Caws' n Street, which is a new street adjoining the house of Mr. Brown. They mistook his house for it, but when the Cor poral knocked, and said he wanted the soldier that had been quartered there. Mrs. Brown answered there was none of his fellows there, and using bad expressions, added, she did not want them, Mr. Brown, when he made his appearance made use of bad language, said he would get the stripes taken off his arm and put upon bis back, asked the fellows if they were not drunk and wanted to roh his house. He (the serjeant) told him he was upon the King's duty, and called upon him for assistance. The Magistrate: told the defendants they had no right to enter any man's house at night, even for a deserter, without s warrant, and if they committed .a mistake they must be answerable for It. No civil person would at tempt it. The Serjeant said he was sorry that any mistake had oc curred, and he was willing to make any compensation re quired by Mr. Brown. Mr. Brown told the Magistrate lie had no wish to press the matter further, but he wished it to he nt itle public that the military have no right to disturb the inhabitants. He wanted no compensation except the payment of the Costs. - The Magistrate hoped it would be underst Kid by the Guards, they have no right to enter persons houses with impunity. The Serjeant assented, and undertook ta pay the expences. Compla•nt dismissed. Extract of a letter, dated Pars, August 22:—" The Don Miguel, comtninded by John Pascoe Grent',ll, arrived here, from ?darsnliem, with despatches from Lord Coch rane for this Government. The result has been, that the Clio flag has been hoisted, the old Government abolished. and one entirely Brazilian elected. The principal persans of this place have taken the oaths of allegiance to the Eta peror. A Portuguese frigate and slop of war have been taken possession of by Captain lirenfell." IVINDSOR, Oct. 13.—His Majesty's stag hounds turned out this day for the first time this season, near Wingfield plain. Lord Maryborough, the new Master of the King's Stag Hounds, attended for the first time since his appoint ment. Several ladies in carriages, together with a great concourse of people, were present to see the deer turned out, and the field was numerously attended to witness the .tay's sport. The deer was turned out of the cart soon after 10 o'clock. A parcel, containing about 1,5001. of the Sleaford Bank, was lost between Sleaford and Bourn on Saturday last. Seven chests full of papers, which are said to have been stolen out of the Record Office in Dublin Castle, have, within the last week, been traced to the house of a shop keeper in the town of Longford; and, under a warrant 'from the Head Police Office in Dublin, were seized there and sent to Dublin, in charge of a Longford constable. The Charter to incorporate the Irish Artists under the title of " The Royal Hibernian Academy, has passed the I Great Seal of Ireland. The Members of the Independent Church at Brighton have presented their late Pastor, the Rev. Dr. Styles, with a silver waiter, of the value of fifty guineas, as a parting token of their esteem and affection. 'The Reverend Gentle. man will in future reside at Kennington, where an elegant place of worship, called Holland Chapel, has been newly erected for him. On Thursday, as Mr. Hamblin (who performed Octavian, in the Mountaineer., for the benefit of his wife, on Monday evening) was walking op High Street, he was suddenly seized with an apoplectic fit, and fell into a gentleman'a arms. He was immediately conveyed home, where he now lies in a very precarious state. In consequence of the great quantity of building going on in Glasgow, masons are in brisk demand, and their wages, instead of falling (as they generally do at this I season), are rapidly rising. THE STATESMAN GALE OF SATURDAY' MORNING. SOUTIIAAIrrort, OCT. 11. Last night we experienced one of the most dreadful gales of wind ever remembered here by the oldest inhabitant. The approach of morning presented to our view a distressing scene on our beach; part of the platform is washed away by the violence of the storm; one vessel broke her chain:cable; mailer, laden with wine, close to the Quay, was in the most imminent danger of sinking; and the beach was strewed with the wreck of ten boats besides_ several which had sunk in deep water. Between four and five o'clock on last Saturday morning we were visited by a tremendous storm of wind, from the S. W. which lasted a considelahle time, and by its vio lence some trees were blown down, and the foliage of others destroyed; the trunk of a large elm, growing at the eastern ride of Breen Wall, in this town, was forced asunder, about four fort from the ground, as short as one might have snapt a carrot, and knocked down part of a wall below on which it fell; its effects were also visible on various buildings; but it produced no very serious mis chief that we have beard of; on, not even to the chain pier at Brighton, though some fears fur its safety were expressed here, by those who have been delighted with the salubrious promenadings it affords.—(Lewes Paper.) EAST BOURNE, OCT. 11.—The wind, about day-break this morning, blew a complete hurricane, and many persons in this place and neighbourhood were alarmed for the safety of themselves and buildings; no accident of any consequence, however, occurred. DOVER. Oct. I2.—The storm of Friday night and yes terday morning has done a great deal of damage in the neighbourhood of this place, and I am fearful we shall hear of much more at a distance. Many of the squalls were so sudden and violent, there was no guarding against them. A collier brig, belonging to Weymouth, which bad sent a boat ashore, with all the crew except the mate, was caught in one of these squalls, and having only ooe solitary man o►► board to manage her, was driven on shore oppas►te the Romney Hoy, and it is feared will not be got oft. A Swedish brig, laden with pitch and tar, went ashore on the Race, to the eastward of Dungeness, and is gone all to pieces. The Prioress Augusta Louisa ketch, from Copenhagen to Naples, with stock-fish, was caught in the gale off Beachy Head, and is come into this harbour with the loss of her bowsprit. A Russian brig went past the Downs early this morning, totally dismasted. l'he chimuies of many houses in the town were blown down yesterday morning, and amongst others, the chimney of the Comptroller's othce in the Custom-house. _ _ THE WEATHER 11E5 by no means improved since our last ; for though on Monday and Tuesday it was tolerably fair, yet the nights were so wet, that the half dried stooks were again drenched with moisture, and rendered unfit to be removed front the fields to the barn yard ; on Wednes day, Thursday, and yesterday, the fall of rain was still greater, every passing cloud pouring down a fresh shower, which the few occasional glimpses of sunshine had no power to evaporate. The consequence is, that a consider able quantity of grain still remains unhoused, and though the operations of harvest have been conducted with unusual activity, there are many fields ripe for the sickle yet uncut, particularly between this city anti Penrith, and in the uis trict westward of Carlisle. Bat however late the harvest, and unfavourable the weather in the northern parts of Eng land, no effect has been producA in the average of the corn market, which last week has experienced a further reduction of. 4.. 2d. a quarter. Indeed Cmre can be• no doubt, that, notwithstanding some partial damage sustained by the wheat, the general abundance of the crops, and vast quantity of corn which has been housed in rood order, will effectually prevent any rise in the price of grain.—(('arlie e Journal.)• Some farther intellig.-nce bas at le bath been received o f Mr. Green's balloon. It appears that the material of which the machine is made, was torn when it was fou..d, that the barometer is lost, and that the person who picked up the balloon, with the saving know ledge of his coantrvmen, requires eirhteen pound. and the expense of carriage, be fore he will restore it to the owner . or if that is objected to, be will have the matter settled by arbitr a tion— a ki n d of Dutch law suit, which, like some of the snits of other countries, may cost as much as the value of the property litigated. We fear that the wind, and the water, and the Dutchman will, by their combined operation, have so far impaired and taxed the machine, that it may be a fair question whether thesalvage will not cost more than thewreek is worth; under these circurnstances,we think the subscribers to the fund, to remunerate the intrepid aeronaut for his loss, will direct that the money should be paid over for his use; but the gentlemen who have intere-ted them selves in this matter, not feeling at liberty to determine the point, have convened a meeting of the subscribers' to be held on Monday night. Mr. Green informs us, that it is his intention to visit Yorkshire again next summer, and to make ascents from Leeds during the races, and from York, Halifax, Tsdeaster, and Bradford, at such times as may best suit the inhabitants of those places.— (feeds Mercury.) SournkmeroN, OCT. 11.—The celebrated and enterprising Commodore O'Brian has been amusing the public here, with his nautical manoeuvres in the roads, fur some days past, in his diminutive cutter, the Royal Gift, Much misrepresentation having been male as to her dimens one, the following may be depended on as correct : —Lentittroin thelafter part of the stern post to the fore part of the stern, 6 feet 4 inches ; ex treme breadth, 2 feet 9 inches; depth in hold, I foot bi inches. She is completely decked, and has ports, though no gulls, and is completely cutter•rigged. The SAXON MONTHS.—January, was named "ESTER YULLS. or after Christmas February, SOL-41ONATH, from the returning Sun ; March, ftiteos, or RETH-MONATH, rough or rugged month ; April, Emma MONATH, from a Saxon Goddess (Easter) ; May, Tat-alti.cet, from the custom of milking twice a day; June,Suatt MoNATII, the meads in bloom ; August, WEOD MON ATH, from the luxu riance of weeds ; September, ILERPEST MONATII, the harvest month ; Octuber, WINTER FYLLETH, winter ap proaching with the full moon ; A'orearber, Burr MON•TH, facen the blood of cattle killed for store ; December,' MIDWINTER SlONATH.—(Somerset-house W ee kly Ail s .' eellany.) Ott Wednesday. as the Dart coach, from this place to Weymouth, was passing over one of the bridges at Christ church, one of the wheels came in contact with the legs of the son of Mr. Lewmon, of that town, who was on horse back, by which he was pulled off, and, falling under the wheels of the coach, they passed over his head. The pour little stiff•rer, who was about 9 years old, lived a few hours after. It is supposed the child pulled the wrong rein; no blame attaches to the coachman, who was driving at a moderate pace. The body of a young woman, respectably attired in a blue pelisse and Leghorn bonnet, was picked up on the shallow below WaSerloo-bridge, on Saturday afternoon, at low water, by Adam Eames, a waterman. The body ap peared to have been recently in the water, and a card in the pocket of the deceased, led to her identity. She had lived nursery maid in a genteel family, in Grosvenor-street, and lodged in Carn the - -street, which place she had been absent from since Wdriestlay last. At the Michaelmas Sessions of the county of Linlithgow held on the 2d inst. all the gentlemen appeared in mourn • ing, from respect to the memory of the late Lord Lieutenant, ( , he Earl of Hopetoun) and a motion was made by Sir James Dalyell of Binns and seconded by John Stewart, Esq. of Binny, for commencing an attempt to hand down to posterity their sentiments of his Lordship's pit.blic and private virtues, by the dedication of a monument to a memory so justly revered. There is at present running between Kilmarnock and Fenwick as post, an old man aged 95. He ap?ears to be quite healthy, and goes three tiint•s a•tveek a distance of ight miles, and carrying sometimes a very heavy burden of parcels. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
