The Duke and Duchess of Clarence are staying on a visit with their Royal Sister, the Queen of iVirtetnbere. The Duke of Gloucester arrived at his residence, Glou cester House, Park-lane, on Tuesday evening, from Swan sea. in his travelling carriage and four. The Duke of Gloucester, attended by his Equerry.

We have now these musical favourites and Mr. Browne, in addition to our company ; and we trust the managers will be re warded for the liberality with which they have this season catered for our arnuseinent—hi , erp sof Advertiser. The new grand Opera, Winter's Due Unterbroehese OpPriest, is attracting crowded houses at the Lyceum. On Tuesday evening his 119 . al Highness the Duke of Sussex honoured this Theatre with his presence, and last night his Royal Highness the Duke of Gloucester and a distinguished party occupi, d a private box. The house was well filled, and the Orticir must hare a considerable run. Remove. le or Srarroan.—lt is rutnoored that the un successful candidate for this borough (Mr. Campbell, the barrister) does not intend to come to another election, but to petition against the return cf the late Mr. Ironmonger. This very clever rese de prerre would probably be a peti tion, questioning the eligiliiiity of the late Mr. Ironmonger, on the ground of bribery, :U., and if the executors of the deceased Gentleman, or aurae one else, did not think it worth their altile to oppose it, the allegations of the petition would be taken as true, and the Learned tounsel decided to be the Sitting Member, without a fresh election. It is supposed, however, that either the burgesses, or perhaps the new candidates, would feel it ex pedient to oppose the Learned Gentleman's petition, and , by defeating the ingenious mode dial is talked of, succeed in procuring a new election for the borough; but even in that case Mr. Campbell will have an opportunity of again offering himself as a candidate. The subscriptions received by the Philanthropic Society in favour of the Greeks, front the 31st of July to the 9th August, amounted to 39,913 fr., 46 cents—French Paper. Livsarooi, Avert. I.l.—We have a steady demand in the Cotton market, and prices may be said to be somewhat stiffer. About 6,000 bags sold in the three days. IMPORT•NT TO Por; rIASTERS AND DRIVERE.—By an Act passed towards the close of the last Session of Parli ament, and entitled "An Act to make further Regulations relating to the Licensing of Stage Coaches," dated May 5, postmasters are subject to a penalty of 201., for every per. son taken up for hire by a driver of their horses or carri ages, on his return after setting down his fare. Informers will doubtless be on the watch to take advantage of those who are ignorant of the existence of this law, and it is highly necessary that the owners of post-horses should be put upon their guard against this extraordinary and un expected enactment.

'1 lie lady who had lobt it, and the , pawnbroker who had received and stopped it, attended and ' proved the case. On being, asked what she had to say, she, with a volubility which proved her to be an adept, stated that the good lady who had so kindly relieved her extr,ine necessity had thrown a plate full of broken meat into her aprontind that oil It •r return home, on examining the success of her peregrination, she was surprised to find a a her spoon, and bad ben touch grieved ever since that she could not find the house where she had received the bounty ! This plausib!c and ingenious story, told with great lubricity, had the effect of puzzling the latly,who not being disposed to depose to the contrary, the prisoner was dveltarged.—Liverpod Advertiser. STATZ or TRAM— The symptoms of reviving pros perity in the manufacturing districts still continue, and though far from deci.ivc, they serve to keep alive the hope of better times, which recent events had almost extin "malted. We do not understand that the symptoms are stronger, but they have not, like former gleams of pros perity, vanished as soon as they appeared. There is one circumstance which induces us to fear fur their per inaiience--it is that at the present period of the year, there is in general a brisk though temporary demand, and it is not impossible that when that demand has leen supplied, things may become as languid as ever. ( M the other band, however, it is quite certain that the great surplus of goods in the market has ben much reduced, whilst in every branch, as the condition of the workmen proves too plainly, a great decrease has tsken place in the quantity of goods produced. Whatever was the first cause of the spirit of speculation which devas tated the whole country, the principal cause of embarrass ment swag the different classes of the community, and of the enormous reduction in the value of goods, was over- Production, and that cause being removed, we may reason ably expect a return of the regular demand. It is neither reasonable to expect, nor wise to desire, a return of that unnatural prosperity which appeared to pervade the coun try before the panic, and which arose from an immense 4teculative demand being added to the real consumptive demand : but there is no reason to suppose that the bona 14 le trade of the country has materially suffered, or that the springs of our prosperity arc dried up. The trading corn- I ttmity has had a terrible but necessary lesson in the school Di adversity ; we trust, however, that it is now nearly over, anti that it will be wiser in future.—Liverpool Advertiser. esterday morning Mr. Page, o f the Crown Tavern, Bad-bill, a 20 stone man, ran a race of 100 yards with 11 „"ther person, weighing 17 stone, and won by four yards. ,fie afterwards ran 30 yards, with a 801 l on his back La !tan of that name), against another person's 100 yards, " 111 again won. Yesterday a Special General Meeting of the Proprietors of this Company took place at the Company's Office, No. In, Charlotte street, illoomsbury, in pursuance of a requisition, to take into con. Rideration the propriety of an absolute and entire dissolution, of the Company. A Gentleman. whose name we could not learn, took the Chair, when a Resolution was moved and unanimously passed, that it was highly beneficial and desirable for the Proprietors that a dissolution of the Company should forthwith be erected ; and further, that according to the 55th Section of the Deed of Settle ment, notice of a second Special General Afeeting. fur the 10t1: of September next, should be inserted i.! the I,sriium Gazelle and daily newspapers. A discussion then took place, as to the pro priety of proceeding to the appointment of a Select Committee, in confortnity with the Deed of Settlement; but on its bring stated by one of the Proprietors that the Deed of Settlement did not specify at which meeting the Select Committee was to be nonai dated, the subject dropped, and the Meeting adjourned. It would seem from the thinness of the Meeting, that the Pro prietors did not conceive they should derive much bimait from at. tending. Indeed, those present were most anxious to conceal their names. We were given to understand that the funds of the Company were in a very low state, and it would finally expire at the next meeting. 1k mortmis ufhil nisi bouuns. SURREY, 5-67SEX,.A,ND_SOUTIIIYARIf . FIRE AND LIFE AiSOISANCE COMPANI. Yesterday, an Extraordinary General Meeting of this Company was held at the Three Tuns Tavern, St. Margaret's hill, South wark, for the purpose of confirming or rej. cting the Re‘olutinn to tli.solre the Company, which was passed ut the last Extraordinary General Meeting of the Proprietors. JAMB; iioit3E, req. in the Chair. The Secretary having read the Minutes of the last General Meeting— The CHAIZMAN observed, that he should be glad to hear any observation which any Gentleman might think proper to offer. but he presumed that they had very little else to do than put the Reso lution confirmatory of the one adopted at the last Gene: al Meeting, which was for the dissohution of the Company, and which lie bad no doubt would pass unanimously. Mr. BLACK ET moved that the Minutes of the late General Meeting be adopted, and the recommendation of the Directors be carried into effect, of clinching the Company. He understood that the Proprietors had transferred all their Fire Risk. to the Pro. tector Company—an arrangement which met his perfect concur rence. He therefore should not trespaLt further on the time of the Meeting, than by moving that the Minutes of the last General Meeting, which had been just read, be coofittned, and the Com pany be from this day dissolved, which, after some desultory o n. yersatMn, by which it was understood that the life and fire poli cies would be transferred to the Protector Office, was seconded, and carried unanimously. A PROMS I ETOII said, before the Meeting separated, he felt it his duty to offer a fcw observations with regard to a Gentleman whose prospects In life were. i.e might say, identified with the fate of this Company. Mr. Wilson, their Secretary, had left a valu able situation to come to their employment. Of course, the Com pany being dissolved, he would be bereft of a situation, with an in. font family to provide for ; and under that impression, he should submit a Resolution, recommending Mr. Wilson to the generous eonsiderat:on of the Directors. lie therefore moved, that the Drectora would be pleased to take into their liberal consideration the services of Mr. iVilson, and the peculiar situation he was placed in by the dissolution of the Company. Mr. BLACKET seconded the motion, and eulogized the talents and character of Mr. Wilson. _ _ The CH.% IRMA n. in putting the Resolution, observed, that the Directors fully coincided with the generous •iew. Liken of Mr. ‘Vilboreis case, and said it should meet with their liberal con. The Resolution was then put, and pstsed with acclamation. Ilr. 1% 7 1 Lame, in returning thanks, said, " Gentlemen, I re turn you my best thanks for the consideration which you have given this subject, and I have no doubt but that your kind wishes will be fully carried into effect ; and as for myself, I have the moat perfect sati,facticn at being placed in the hands of tile Directors." rTAanka •cre then voted to the Chairman, and the Meeting inputted. urnarooL CORACEXCIIANGE, TUESDAY, AUG.IS. attended, both by town and ronntry Ight In Wheat. at a decline of 3d. per 'heat.

ENGLAND, THE HOME OF THE WORLD !—A grand na tional song, under the above title, composed by the justly celebrated John Barnett (the composer of the music of " Not a drum was heard," written on the death of General Sir John Moore), ii now singing with great applause at Vauxhall, by 13;allam, who has thus added to the fame he has already at euired, by the energy and soul-stirring spirit which he nightly infuses into this popular and highly attractive musical composition. The words, which we have given at length, are from the pen of 1). A. O'Meara, Esq., who has long been celebrated as a song-writer of considerable eminence : ENGLAND, THE HO3IE OF THE WORLD! Hail to thee, niglsnd—blest isle of the ocean ! Thy proud deeds awaken the fondest emotion, Whose name shall for ever live famous in stoey— The watch-word of freedom—the birth-place of glory. Thy sans they are brave and are true to their duty.... Thy daughters are fair lovely emblems of beauty— The joys that surround But in England are found— In England—the Home of the world ! Couch'd is her Linn—Britannia reposes ; Encircled by laurels amid her bright roses, licr wahines at rest and her bsnr.crs all furled— Hail to thee, England—blest isle of the ocean ! The Exile beholds thee with blissful emotion: The joys that surround But in England ere found. Dear England Eng land Home of the world ! Ye, who inveigh 'Retest the lard of the stranger, Who would. by disunion, its blessings endanger, Go seek Foreign climes for a country so glorious As England—Old England ! —for ever victorious. Her light was the beacon that guided to keedom, When nations, opprest, called on England to aid them— Her clarion she blew, Was steeliest and true, And spread her shield over the world. Long may her Navy, triumphantly sailing, And Army, still conquer with courage unfailing— Their thunder for ever 'gainat tyrants be hurled— Hail to thee, England—blest isle of the ocean!

On the Loan CHANCELLOR entering the Court this morning, Mr. HART reminded his Lordship that he had promised to give judgment in this cause to-day. The Loan CHANCE LLon said thus he had read the affidavits with a view to that part of the case which was heard yesterday, and his opinion.with regard to the payment of the bonds and bills of exclinnge was, that the reeeirer ought not to discharge them. If lie were to permitted to do so, It would be altogether a dem tem from the practice of this Court. As to the late. and taxes that were due in respect of theetheatre.le cotild not see how it was pos sible for the Receiver to avoid paying them. Had he not done so, the consequences would have been must serious to the concern. The sum which was required by Meseta. Conat and Harris to be paid into Court was 19,140. 11 ould the Receiver, Instead of pay ing that sum, immediately pay in 10,0001., and take a reference to the Mare, as to the tuxes and rate.? Mr. HART said, if the proposition was that Mr. Robertson shrink] undertake to pay into the A ceountant-Genend's Office 10,000/. before the 25th of this month, on which day that office closed, he would, without the authority of his client, take upon himself the reeponeibility of consenting to such an order. The Lotus Citexceetaea thought the proposition was both fair ant reasonable, for had not the Receiver paid the rates and taxes, they must have been distraiiied for upon the property, which would have ruined the theatre. Mr. SI:GDEN observed, that if hie Lordship thought the props. sition a fair one, lie could say nothing against it, except that Messrs. Willett, Forbes, and Kenible, by their own agreement, had undertaken, nut flay themselves to pay the rates and taxes, but also a large sum for rent, which still remained unpaid. Mr. SHADWELI. asked his Lordship to extend the time of pay- ment beyond the 2atli of this month, as he had been informed by his client that there was a physical impossibility on the part of Alr. Robertson to pcy it by that time. Mr. HART presumed that to mesa that he had not got the money. Mr. SHADWELL admitted the correctness of Mr. Hart's In terpretation. The LORD Cuetecet.eoit could not order the time to lee ex tended beyond the 25th. His Lordship then alluded to the vaca tion, and said thitt in 'former times this period Of cessation from business was with tr. view to release the Chancellor, and that the practice was for the Master of the Rolls (there being then no Vice. Chancellor) to transact all those things that required despatch during the vacation. When he was as the bar a singular circumstance happened to himself, which, as it was a professional anecdote, he would relate to them. On one occasion, Mr. Honig, the banister, went down daring the vacation to Sir Thomas Sewell, at that Learned Judge's seat, at °aerobe*, for the purpose of having a case heard ; but Sir Thomas refueled to hear the Learned Counsel's application. because had omitted to bring with him his gown and wig. It happened that he (the Lord Chancellor), at a subse quent period, also wished to apply to Sir Thomas (luring the hole. days, andreollecting the essentiality of gown and wig. he carefully deposited them in the chaise with his brief. On his arrival at Ot tershaw Sir Thomas came out to receive him, and perceiving the forensic paraphernalia, the Learned image very poltely requested hira not to put them on. (A. laugh.) Last vacation, his friend. the Mester of the Rolls, was at a great distance hem town, and has friend the Vice-Chancellor was abroad; the consequence of which was, that he had a great many Chancery Sittings during the holi. days. Mr. HART would make a proposition that would remove Mr. Shadwell's physical impossibility, now that he (llr. Hart) under. stood what physical impossibility meant, which was, that if Messrs. Willett, Forbes, and Kenible, would come forward and consent by their Counsel to have their names jointly introduced into the order with the Receiver's, that they should pay the 10,0001. into Court on or before the first day of next Term, be would accede to the exten sion of the time; but it was not to be understood that there was to be any reference to the Master. Mr. SrenEN, after lie heard this, did not object to it. Mr. SHADtcEt.L was iii,trnetett, on behalf of those three gentle men, at once to appear far them, and consent to Mr. Hart's pro posal, Which he did. Mr. Beret then added, that this in a great measure put an end to the case, and if the parties were *lea, the Court would never hear of it again. The'Loan CuaxcEt Lon considered it a reasonable proposition. Ile had repeatedly considered the decree made in this cause, and it appeared to him to have been made on the assumption that the ma. nagement of Covent-Garden Theatre was to devolve on this Court. lie disavowed the jurisdiction of the Coin: to carry on such a con cern, and he wiiied all the parties to understand, that if it was their intention to contuma to keep open this theatre, they must take It out uf Chancery. The extent to which the jurisdiction of the Court went was to treat this case as that of a partnership concern. and no otherwise. He should regret applying :Le principles of the Court to this case, because it would go to destroy the amusements which the public no doubt enjoyed by visiting the establishment, but it entirely depended on the patties themselves whether the theatre continued to afford that entertainment or not. The terms of the decree went to make either the Chancellor, the Master of the Rolls, or the Vice-Chancellor, manager of this theatrical concern. How far the two gentlemen lie had just named were competent ma. nagert he did not know, but for himself he must confess he had no skill in carrying on such an establishment. His LORDSHIP then ordered the Receiver to pay into Court the sum of 10,0001. on or before the first day of next Term, according to the proposition of Mr. Bart. °LAM/4670N V. THWAITES. Mr. ROUPEL hoped, before his Lordship le ft town, that he would dispose of the point in this exit. The LORD CHANCELLoR said he certainly should. He felt greatly obliged to the Learned Counsel for mentioning it, though he had had the papers in his hand this very morning. In the course of next week he hoped to get through a good many judgl POLICE. FRAUD. hiwxstow-HousE.—Tholitas Ann!: was charged before the Loan MATOR with having fraudulently obtained a bill of ex change from John Thompson. ... . • . The prosecutor, who is a poor illiterate baker, deposed. that the defendant came to him to sell him some flour, and got two bills front him, on pretence that the flour ►hould follniiimiticdtstely ; but it never Caine, and the prosecutor was arrested for the amount, thrown into prison, and compelled to take the benefit of the Insolvent Act. One of the bills was drawn by him on the 17th of April, and the defendant had altered it to the 27th of May. The Chief Clerk said, this was a forgery. The alteration was palpable. The prisoner Annis said, the bill Wfti given him in dis charge of an old debt, due to him by the prosecutor. The latter, when it became due, requested further time, and he had made the alteration at his request. The prosecutor solemnly declared that he had never given any such authority to the prisoner. The Loan MAYOR asked a gentleman who atterded as Solid. toe for the prosecutioo, what object theFrisoner could attain by the alteration !. . _ The Solicitor said, that at the time the ptisoner got the bill dis. counted, it had but a few days to run; and his wish to get the money upon it, and other circumstances, tendered the alternstive desirable %s him. The Lona MAYOR remanded the prisoner on' the ehargeof forgery. THE THAMES FISHERY. _ _ . - - John Deer and William liava , aod were charged wilh basing used unlawful nets. Rough, the assistant Nirater-bniliff. deposed, that he had found the prisoners at work near Fulham Bridge, about two o'clock in the morning. They had got inside of the stakes, which the gentle men anglers had fixed in that part of the river for the protection of the brood of fish. Their mode of catching the fish was be dis turbing them with long poles from under the arches, anti the boles in which they took shelter ; chains were attached to these poles, which made a great noise. The case of the gentlemen anglers" was extremely hand; they threw in bait to teed and kern the fish together in this quarter, and when they came in the morning, they had to watch their floats fur hours wuhout getting even a nibble, these fishermen having on the overnight swept the place with their unlawful nets. The fishermen rowed by and coo doled with the anglers that the fish would not bite, well knowing that there were none there. The Loan MAYOR Condemned their nets. It was stated, that in consequence of the care which hits been taken latterly of the brood of fish, jtylooking after unlawful nets, the supply in the river has this yiturtWeir particularly plentiful. The Chief Clerk announced, tOs;"symptom of increasing piety amongst thieves, that several of thi.Nstaments need in the Justice. room, for the purpose of administering the oath, Matt been stolen.
