Mr. Charles ‘Thitlaw, the celebrated Botanist, of theta Mseenaitreet, Lincoln's Inn fields, had also bee. Invited gluon by a great portion of the inhabitants, some of whom had paid great attention to his remedies of this dreadful din. ram of lire Scrofula, by the admirtiatration of the decoc tions of mime newly-discovered simples in the eastern States of America. His patients, in great numbers, were also assembled, and extritited to the inspection and 'termination of this very revpitets'ble assembly. The friends and parents of these patients also attended to testify the cures which Mr. Ithillaw's decoctions had most successfully effected. The patients were coarained, one by one, in the presence of the whole assembly; and their respective parents and friends, accompanied by the very humane and obit Dr. John Turner, of Canterbury, deposed to the regular progress of amphora. ,tion and positive relief, to the great atitooishment and satis faction of the sudience. Matey of these patients, so placed under Mr. Whitlow's care, had been years and years labour s', under thin calamittres disease, and relinquished as incur. able; and some of them bad derived MI the• pusstble relief whirl, several Hospitals, and all their humor, faculty, eseld mamba administer, without *feel, even to Hue cu test mime and comfort. • It is now in contemplation to establish a County Inalitu.

INSOLFINT Dierokr.COUßA OLD BAILEY, Timm, Stmatusa 4. I John Armitage was opposed by Mr. PoLLoct os the part of the Earl of narewood, and Mr. Parker, his steward. The Insolvent was a butcher, and had ►esided at Hull, Leeds, and Fulford, in Yorkshire, and at Poplar, Sr. Georges-fields, and London-road. At most of these places he had contracted some debts. He had bought some collie of Mr. P.trker and some sheep, which were the property of Lord Ilarewood, only a fortnight before be heft Leeds; and, as his embar rassments then *amounted to 500/. and upwards, and since increased to 9001. M►. Pollock contended he could have no reasonable expectation of being able to osy his clients, who had instructed him to op. pose his discharge, not so much for the amount of the debts due them, which were only trifling, as the punishment of conduct which appeared so highly blameable. In explanation the Insolvent stated, that at the tinlj lie had the sheep from Mr. Parker, he was dealing also with other persons, anal was turning its his trade as a butcher 50/. a week. He had a wife and eight children, and had debts in bin books to the amount of goo/. The COURT thought this case was distingnished from others which came before it. Here the Insol vent had • business, and his embarrassments might easily be conceived to 'rise from the common casu alties of trade ■nd his numerous family. The Court, therefore, ordered him to be discharged. Henry Sedgoick was opposed by Mr. HEATH, on the ground that his client bad been put to a vexa tious and unnecessary expeme by Ole Insolvent, in removing the cause out of the Pallice Court and afterwards bringing a writ of error ; and also berau•e the debt was for damages for a malicious injury in breaking open his client's door. The liivolvent hail also declared that he could have got the busi ness settled by Mr. Parker, but that sooner than Healey should have the motley he would rather rot in gaol. The COURT intimated, that the points insisted on by the Learned Counsel had already been decided not to come within the 18t11 sectiou of the Art of Parliament. Mr. HEATH then submitted that this was one of those eases in which the Court had a discretionary !tower to remand for not longer than six months, agreeably to the 16th section of the Act of Parlia ment. Mr. POLLOCK, for the Insolvent, stated, that in the original case there were cross indictments. and • great deal of ill blond between the parties, but lie was sure the Court would not. on that •c -count, visit the insolvent with a vindictive punish ment. The COURT conceived the conduct of the 10. solvent had been of that description to justify the Court in considering him as a proper object for the exercise of that discretionary power with which the Court was invested by the Act of Parliament. The Insolvent was accordingly 'emended for six months. FRIGATF('L EVENT. The conversation of all Pat is turns on • Mandist 'veal which tool place two dais since at the Imam of M. M. Moat tier, a money changer, in the street de la Fronted,. At • late hour of the evening, a person who it has been since ascer tained had just left a gambling house, where he had lost all his property, entered the horse. There was only • young female servant at the counter. Madame Mastitis" and her nephew were in the beck shop. The man, when be entered, closed the door, stabbed the servant with a poniard, and seised • •basket foll of gold. Madame Muuttier and her nephew rushed forward, end were both stabbed by the assassin, who escaped from the house and remelted t►e street de In Vrilliere. Two young men eauieaeouring to seize the miscreant, were both wounded, one of them dan gerously. An old man, who was going quietly along, was also stabbed hr the furious wretch. He was at length seised by a patrol of gendarme; but even in the moment of his arrest, he made an ins &cilia! attempt to wound one of the military. He was conducted to the guard house as the Hank, but be had hardly frittered, when he suddenly drew a pistol from his pocket and blew out hie Waists. Nothing was found un his person which might lead to • discovery of the monster —(Consillal(ossel.) The Mosileur stales, that three of the persons wounded are since dead, and it is feared two others will out survive. We learn with pleasure from some of the Medi cal Gentlemen of elm. city, that fever and dysentery have almost entirety disappeared in our hospitals.— (Limerick ('hronicle.) A decent, well-conducted woman, the mother of three young cluldrm, heing ill of dysentery, in Limerick, had the first medical assistance, and was early on Sunday considered in a fair way of reco very, when • quack was called in, who this time heck got sonic credit amongst the poor for his won derful cures. As soon as the quack •rrived, he ordered a pint of lir4itay, in which he Wilt seen to mix some two or three powd-r•, of which he then give her a spoonful. The poor woman in a few minutes got deranged, and in the coursenf an hour she was nu more !— (I limerick !tveaing Post.) On IVedipesday last the Sovereigit steam yacht, which hus been for some time past building at Stourport, for the purpose of navigstitig the I Severn between that place and Gloucester, was launelted there. This vessel was built in a very superior style, and is peculiar in her construction, both as reg irds her hull and the machinery by which she is to he impelled. Her external appearance iv exceednigly handsome, sod the cabins are fitted op in a corresponding style of liberality and taste. Notwithstaisiling the unpropitious state of the westlirr, the novelty of the scene, and the interest excited in the success of the undertaking, attracted a vast concourse of persons to witness the launch. The whole passed off exceedingly well, with the exception of a single accident, and that, we re gret to state, was of a serious nature. Previous to the launch taking plaice, 21 pieces of cannon were tired at intervals. Upon the commeocemviit of the firing of the second salute, Captam SANDOM observed to the person who was discharging the guns (end who was in no way connected with the yacht), t h at from the report they made, he was convinced they were overinflated, and recommended him not to use so much pswder. Confident, how ever, in his owls judgment, he disregarded the fricailly caution ; and the melancholy result was, that nit applying the match to the filth gun it burst, mid killed him on the spot. ► 1:40;41 . 1.).,).

Jeremy Calklet the silversmith, who sap examined some time wince on • charge of lowlier forged lie Hall and duty marks se plate, underwent a Taal examination. No new evidence was adduced that I. in any way material, and upon the evidence Ara laddered he was fully - committed for trial. It was stated, that the crime of forging the Hall and duty marks had been committed of late to such an enormous cu test, that the drawbacks received on plate at the Custom Howie, notwithstanding constant vigilaarc, exceeded the receipts of the Hall. The export of gold ring' with forged stamps has bee. carried to an extent particularly beyond any ether articles, and we are informed that it is is eontemplation to abolish the drawback entirely. We sire informed that more then two third, of the exporters are Jews. As the Lard Mayor was hangar-ling the lin.inees of yester day, a peruse of remarkable a ppeartmee, dressed as a Quaker, covered by a broad braver, on which he wore a large tri coloured cockade of red, blue, and white, came into the Office, attended by a siring of remelts. whom his strange ap pearance hail attracted. He made op to the Lord Mayor is a respectful manses, and stated that he had no other business with his Lardahip at prewar than to present him with • paper, which he handed in. His Lordship, be said (with an alr of isayetery), might read it or not, all he thought proper, a espy of it had been transmitted to Earl Bathurst. The applicant gave his name Charles Wheatlleld Squires, and withdrew. The paper he presented contained a sort of caricature portrait of himself, with • velocipede, holding • paper o. which wan ascribed " Tk e S p i r i t of Des potism," arid several unintelligible inscription.. We were Informed that the individual is the proprietor of • large farm is the courdry, which he andilenly left 'wow • few day., sad mime se town on • velocipede, being seised with a design which if is given out will astonish and besr6t the Nation when divulged.

But out. limits forbid us to enter into particulars : imtesd.of which we will present our readers with the knowing characteristic sketch of. part of the travelliug suite of Mr. Humboldt and hi. companion Bctiplaud,iti their passage up the Rio Negro : " In one of the huts of the Pacimonales we made the acquisition of two large flue birds, a toucan (piapoeo), approaching the rarnploastos erythro rhytichos, and au ants, a sp.cies of macaw, seveuteen incises long, having the whole body of a purple colour, like the p. macro.

SINGULAR ACT OP DRSPRRATION. An unfortunate occurrence took place at Maek's Ferry, C,attaraugus Creek, to this county, on Saturday last:—.l white ton and a large stout ludtuu , who goes by the name of the Deeirs Ramrod, having hail some alorrcation, at length proceeded to blow', the Indian being the aggressor. They were parted by the by-standees (hut not until the white man bad got the better of hue adversary), and the Indian pet across the cretk, mounts-dun his burst, bet he was so grieved by his discomfiture that he immediately dismounted and jumped into the creek. lie was taken out and 'gain mount ed nu his hone, +hem he went a short distance, gut off and tied his home, and again plunged into the creek. Ile was taken out the second time and again mounted, when finding he was not likely to succeed in this bummer, tie went off • few yards and lay down by the fence until bis spies left him, when be again renewed the attempt to thorn himself, and, probably, match to his own satisfaction, succeeded; he not being discovered until hr was oinking for the last time (hav ing gone some distance below where he made the first attempt), and his body was not recovered until the neat morning. It is said that the Indians are nut fully satisfied with the above statement, a hole having been found un the back part of the Indian's head, probably occasioned by a spear white endeavouring to "spear Ain up and that they have sworn vengeance against the white man, onkva SalistarLiUti is glifell as some of them helieve that the Indian was killed by the white man and thrown into the creek. Nothing Serinti., however, is apprehended, as this Indiana will nu doubt be pacified.—(New York Paper.)
