QUIN, ESQ. gentleman, whose premature death, at his in Dublin, we mentioned on Saturday, was a acholy instance of the fatal etre.% of the runiti which an ;alive mind is apt to sink from the . a s-I'id and rational employment suited to powers. He inherited from his father an esta e 5001. a year, which, added to a place of year in the Castle of Dublin, put him in pot of ample means ; if it be considered that he o family, and was not of expensive habits. He bespoke the case of pistols, with one of which he t himscll, a few days before the fatal event, and very particular in his directions that they should the largest bore. The ball passed through his t, through the bed, ant lodged in the wall at bedside. The report of the pistol was not heard of the dimicstici , , and his death was neither .n nor suspected until the next morning, when elder brother called on business; and, having en the bed-chamber, found him dead and exactly state, which justified the conclusion, that never moved after the shot. He had often 1a- Ited in the course of his life, that he had not brought up to a profession, but had never be any symptoms of a disordered mind.---The under these circumstances, brought in a ver f Suicide. At the tine of his death he had in his banker's hands. Tuesday, EDWARD VAUGHAN, a private in iettingham Volunteer Infantry, was conviCied JOHN ASHWI.t.L, Esq.

ROYAL FETE AT WINDSOR. It has been stated by some of our contemporaries that St. George's Hail is the apartment fitted up for the Royal Banquet to be given this night.— Nothing can be more. erroneous than the accounts hitherto given, not only.in this, but almost every other partkular. St. George's Hall cannot be the scene of festivity, for that, and the armament ad foimeily the private Chapel, are now under going a general alteration and repair, so that neither of these can possibly he used upon the occasion. The accounts of our contemporaries are also detec tive in another point. They state that the numb-r of persons to be present will not exceed 3(s). We are informed, from undoubted atith,:rity, that thy: will be covers laid for upwards of d o The rooms set apart for this purpose are the Grand Chamber, Presence Chamber, and Audience Chamber Ex clusive of these, which constitute the grand seen? of sution, several of the lower rooms will be used upon this splendid occasion. One of them, called the Lib: at y, is fitted up for eighty of the Eton scholars. The three grand apartments are fitted up as follows : The first is the council or audience chamber, at the head of the great suitcase. In this is placed the throne, under a magnificent canopy. Its orna ments consist of the richest, and decidedly the most splendid, centro ever eel:bite I in this country, and yet of the neatest and simplest design. Never was the principle, .r Simplex mind fife; so happily es-. pressed in the execution.. It represents the Temple of Fans:, and consists of eight Corinthian columns, inpportin;: one h:ish arch in the centre, and two wings, with figares, trophies, &c. in the style of mo dern art:bite:hue. No expeuce has been spared by Mr. BARK EA to decorate it in the most splendid manner. The ends and, outwi:d parts of the table in this room are decorated with military and naval trophies. The parterre of this table is of a desitm entirely new, presenting Vitt inns views of the German mode of travelking, in de mplimerst td Her MA) es•r v. iii nest is the Queen's Presence Chamber.—in it are lai I out !OUT 'MAN tables, but they preseat nothing in vel in the designs or decorations, mid are only remarkable for their peculiar neatness. The third is the Grand Clamber, containing two long tables and a short oi:e across. This being the principal room, is or nautented with extraordinary care, taste, and rip- nce. His MAJarr y will sit at the cross table, the designs and arrangement of which do great credit to the taste and fancy et Mr. FITZWATER, the coulee tiiwer in waiting; the emblematical and descrip tive ornaments wi:h which it abounds, arc in many parts seven feet high. Of the two lung tables, which rut l a, allel from the above, one is furnisbedby Mr. Fit ZWA t F.*, consisting of a centre and ends of es qui rte wcnkmanship. The other, which is nest to the entrance, is furnished by 'Mfr. IN'erren. It re presents i seri:s of temples very striking and beau tiful, but still inferior to the fosnwr. ornarde:As of ths room also present a great variety rd . be-utttel figures, consisting of lions, tygtrs, vultures, &c. Allegorical and Arabesque devices. &c. by a MA.. terly han I. They are designed and executed by Mr Zoe,' rT, of Chelsea, and are highly honourable to his taste and talents. There are two other tables in the lower part of the Castle furnished by Mr. ilsattes, but remark at& only for their peculiar ncatness.. As :area ty stated, the whole neather espetted is 600 t and, although St. l`iteorge's Hall forms no part of the scene, the apartments used could accommodate, with perfeft convenience, double that number . This entertainment will be the grandest given in the Castle for many years, and will ndt be surpassed by the ensuing Installation fete. The Dukes of Cusestatssin,Cssisitiouk.andSuslei,Her ROYAL Mc:amass, and the Princess Cif/taws r e of WAt.es, left town on Saturday, for Windsor, to be present at the festive scene. Windsor was y'sterday all in a bustle. with fashionable arrivals ; and this day it will present the ne plug ultra of gaiety and pleasure. Her Royal Highness the Princess Curia to ETZ is at her house. formerly the late Doactor Hi:seance's, which has been recently repaired and fitc , d up, in a suitable Style, for the future residence of Her Royal Highness. Saturday, the Ro vAL Fa Mrr.v dined at Frogmere, to give an opportunity to the ennleetioners and table-deckers, to furnish some ad ditional tables in the Kiso's private apartments, for the entertainment of this day. The K 'No has been pleased to grant to the lion. and Rev. Enwa art Leatix, Clerk, Bachelor of Law , , the ' .ei• ry of His MAJ Ls ry's Chapel Royal in the Castle of Windsor, with the Deanry of Wol verhampt ta, and Registry of the Knights of the Most Noble Order of the Garter thereuntn annexed, the same iieing void by the Iran lation of Dolor CHAk I.ES MAPINEKS SUTTON, Bishop of Norwich. late Dean thereof, to the Archiepiscopal See of Canterbury. - The KING has also been pleased to grant to the Hon. and Rev J•C011 MARSItAII, Clerk, Dodor in Divini , y, the place and dignity of a Prebendary of His MAJASTY'S free Chapel of St. George, in the Cattle of Windsor, the same being void by the re signation of the Hon EDWARD Lane c, Clerk. The Peggy, _Hams away, from Liverpool for S:igo, is lost off G P. A. several days past, reports have been in cir• culation of the yell..w fever having broken out at Bristol, Southampton, Wo .Iwich, &c. We are happy in being able to state, that the cases horn which the alarm arose were nothing more than the ordinary typhus. The m 'malty amongst the French prisoners at Stapleton has, however, been considerable. A letter from +inn' states, that on Saturday se'nnight, when the disease fi at became serious, 12 persons died, and that the disorder has since increased in virulence. Government has ma nifested the must anxious and animated solicitude, not only for the care and r...covery of the sick, but to prevent the extension cf the malady. The fever at Woolwich WAS nothing more than a slow typhus, and only rendered of puolic interest, by the very naive and creditable means the Go vernment adopted to ascertain the nature of the disorder, and to prevent an extension of it. Parti cular reports have recently been made to Govern ment from the ‘lilitary H-spitals in all pats of the kingdom; cases of the typhus are mentioned in many of them ; but the troops in general are ulna seaUy bealthful. LAW. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Fen 23. of Guildhall, &fore the Lord CH ICE BA lON. HA RA14014 r. wren. The Plaintiff, a Gentleman of fortune, while re siding at Hendon, where the Defendant was a visit ing village apotheeary, lent him, on the 2ifth of De cember, 1792, I uol. for which he took his promis sory note{ it sea . ; not put into a course of payment, until Oduler last, when the illintiff's uncle pre sented it. He was then told, that there was a set off; as it had never been produced before, time was given, but the cash had not been paid, there fore this affirm was brught. in ening into evi dence, the set-off was a bill for medicines, amount ing to BM. 10s. and a charge of 311 10s. for extra attendance. On going into the items of six, eight, rten mixtures per day, Ntr. Pio m en made a most humourous speech, and nearly convulsed the Court with laughter In the event, the Jury allowed the Dodor 501. for his hiil of Intl. by giving the Plain tiff their verdict tor 301. The Statute of Limitations was also pleaded, but over-ruled. FINCH v. 11A STURGE, ?ASA, COX, and OTItIRS. This anion was brought to recover a compensa tion in damages for an assault and false imprison ment, said to be committed on the Plaintiff on the I tith day of January last. It appeared that the Plaintiff, who lived at Reading. in Berkshire, was born and bred a Quaker, and isp to the age of (iio continued such, serving all offices, and filing the most honourable stations. In the year 1797, two friends h tying been reported to the Quarterly Meet ing, as being guilty of paying their tithes, were moved to be expelled. Mr Finch came forward to the meei ing is their advocate, and for that crime he was dipnoned by the Sociiity. He still attended the meetings for reli , l iout worth a, hut his beirg disowned rend: red him ineligible to attend at the monthly, quarterly, or year!) , meetings, pr diveldint. On the tech of January he endeavoured to intrude himself into the Meeting at Bishopsgate-street, they being then on business as a quarterly meeting for disc/ph/is, not for religious Ztor,4li, as was nicely discriminated by one of the witnesses. The Defendants were at the door, and persuaded him not to intrude, but in vain; he persisted, and Mr. Badger took him by the 4:Aar of his teat, and pulled him up the pAe:age, detaining him there for a few minutes. This was the assault and false imprisonment complained of. The Plaintiff was non-suited.

Thlt was an :talon brought against the Grand hula:ion Canal Cnrnpany, fnr nbstruaing the Fain tiff's way to his duck, a:ljniniog the banks of the canal. The Plaintiff rented somelatiti under Sir Henry Hawley, 13a-t. near this canal, oil which he had made. a dock, and• cut a passage for his barges throu..,th the towing path, over which he eteßed a br:d.;e. This passage the De:Ad:Ants tad o)- stru:ted, by placing ;ales and other timber across it, so as to render It wholly usele.s to the Plaintiff. For this ohqrtietion :he anion was brought. Tow defence set up was, that the cut made across the towing path, and the hriiZe etefted over it, were a material ineonirierienee to the Canal Conti-may, in increasing the draft of the horses drawing the barges. The Jury (a special one), having had a view of the premises, were of opinion that this cut and bridge were not an tiol•Strllitioll or prejudice to the navitition, or to the towing pat A verdift of One .odl/iv was therefore given for the Plaintiff. EDwA tins v. VIRGO and OTIIIERS. The Plaintiff, in this adion, was a crimp, resid ing in St. George'i fields ; the Defeild.mts were also persons of the same protessi.Tv, living at Ro chester, and contraaors, with different parishes, to furnish substitutes for the Militia and Army it Re serve. The Plaintiff kept a house, which was re sorted to by persons in distress, to whom he used to give credit to a certain amount ; and then, in order to liquidate the debt, they were obliged to enlist for a stipulated bounty, out of which, such debts as they had contra Red were discharged. By agree ment between the parties, the Defendants were to have allowed the Plaintiff, at the rate of 271. per man, for every person so obtained, upon his passing muster, swearing, &c. at Rochester, the former ad vancing such bounty as the recruits had agreed upon with the lane:, paying the balance between such sum and the 271. to the Plaintiff. It appeared, that the Plaintiff had transmitted to Roches:er several recruits, ae or,.ing to this agreement, which he had procured, for from 14 to 16. per man, and now brought his action for the balance; but not being able to prove the aaual amount paid and received, the Plaintiff was tionsisitod. SIR VIRII 1111.:NT, BART. V. DUSERLY. The Defendant in this c Ise had contra Red with the Plaintiff to furnish I. with ceit.,in claa:hing for a Volunteer Corps, of which the. PLontiti had the command. the contrael being paid, the De fendant afterwards furnis.ied an acc,mnt of extr a s, which the Plaintiff also ti,•;ch trir,ed,, and now brought his aftioa to recover back tiie latter sum. Atter going into some evidence, the parties agreed to re fer the matter to arbitration. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Fa.. 2S. DVINY V. DOWSON. The Plaintiff, a Gentleman residing at Wood bridge, in Suffolk, brought his adion to recover the value of eighty gallons of Hollands, which the De fendant, a ship owner, had negligently suffered to leak out of the cask, while conveying it from Lon don, in his vessel, to the place of devination. The liquor was sent in a cask, supposed to he sound s ft onl Mr. Gray's distillery, in Iseadeuhall.street, to the. Defendant's ship, and, in the voyage to Woodbridge, the who!, leaked out except one pint, which was at tributed either to the Captain's inattention in not seP ing"the cask properly stowed, or to what is termed imelini the Monkey ; a peculiar mode praaised by seamen of drinking liquor out of casks in a ship's hold; it however appeared by several credible wit nesses, that the Holland' had been put in a bad cask. Th, aperture in one of the stares, .hro'igh which the liquor had leaked, was examined in Court, and there did not appear any ground ter cis pet it b id been unfairly made, the Jury theteture folllld a verdift for the Defendant.

It appeared that, on the information of the Pri soner's landlord, the officers went to his horse near Highgate, about seven o'clock of a dark evening, and when they knocked at the door, the man made resistance and fired a p",.;01, which fortunately did not hit any of the office: s, who immediately sexed the Prisoner and his wifi .

Mr. Prue BURROUGHS stated the case on the part of the prosecution, and informed the Jury, that the murder with which the Prisoner was charged, resulted from a duel between him and the deceased. The Rev. Josiah Erskine deposed, he was second to the deceased, and that the duel took place in a field, near Dublin. Tire Prisoner, ',ten in Trinity College, was attended' by Mr. P. Smith, as his friend. It was agreed the combatants should fire by signal, at thirte.in paces distance, where marks were set. He made every eff.rt for, an accommodation, and proposed, if the Prisoner would apolagis: fat the scutrilons Isrigual4a he used to the deceased. the latter would anolo i .idse f r the blow he had given. 'Phis proposal not b. ing accerki to, the parties t , iok their ground.

Erskine, that his condu& was Iwo nourable and fair, was pr. duced on the part of the rris.mer, and contradieted every thing said by Mr. Erskine, denying that he told the Prisoner to keep his position, and the exclamation "b-w2u1,141.4 , :nr , d.' He, however, acknowledged the Prisoner had fired before the signal agreed on was given, and holieved he did so from perceiving the intention of the de.

Both witnesses were confronted, and Mr. Erskine was rehire in asserting he found' the pistol of the deceased o'n the ground, recta, primed, and loaded The Earl of Fingsl deposed, that shoot four years since he, under strong recommendati =n from Eng land, introduced the Prisoner to the Margins Corn wallis, then Lord Lieutenant, and that he *es as public as any other gentleman Major Darnell and Doiior Ebrinron spr.kz,n L t .e gored charaeter of the Prisoner.
