I lug s., eldest son of Surgeon Hem e, of Dublin, and broCier to Donor ' Hume, of Lower Grosvenor-street. We have since received the following particulars fr nn a corre spondent in that city t—Mr. Hume was on Thurs day se'nnight in curlier: h.-alth, and appeared in good spirits at dinner. Mrs. HUME, a Miss Neese. a visitor, and the Governess and chil dren, had not retired many minutes to the draw in:oroom, when Miss GCOKGIN A HUME, Ili. second Jaarthter, returned to the dining-room. Upon opening the door, she found her rather cx tended upon the floor. Her shrieks alarmed the rest of the family, who flew to the spot. Mrs. Hutt: threw herself upon the Roor, and endeavour ed to raise him, but to no purpose. Mr. Wares, an eminent apothecary, attended, and opened a vein. It ' bled freely, but Mr. WATTS pronounced twat life was irrevocably gone. Meantime, surgeons H A ISL l• I ()A a and N44:voT attended, and con fi rmed his opi nion. " I will not attempt," says oor correspond ent, " to describe the deep and universal sensation Iwi-:ch this sudden and melancholy event has pro ' ' du-ed in this city, nor how sincerely the public mind sympathises with the wonky and venorable father ol the dereaed. Within a few short months, he has I lost two sons, both excellent men, and an snits de datighter-in-law. Most truly may he exclaim with the Poet— I " In.:nine weber, mold not one suffice ? " T:ir.re Haw yaw d ,n, and thrice my peace wwasgrin ; " And tinny. ere thr.c? von mow had trd hla er wns.' BLACK►'.4I.I. CANAL. We have much satiiaaton in assuring the public, that no life was Inst in the blowing up of the dams at the Canal in the Isle of Dogs. The works were so nearly finished, •hat Monday next was appo;nted tor the letting in of the water ; nn IVeci nesday the exterior pier at the Blackwall end was ex peching,and was expeaed to he finish din the COOTS, of the fn:lowing day; hut, on theft-ming of the tide at nine o'clock, the water was seen to enter beneath the coffer.dam,and gradually filledtheintermediate space between that and Cie counter darn, which was placed at the entrance of the lock ; it was expeaed rh it this counter dam would (as did the one at the West India Docks, when a similar accident occurred pre vious to the opening) he able to resist the per sure; but, as the water pressing against it increased, it blew up about eleven o'clock, with a tremendous crash t the water between the exterior coffer den and the Counter...lnm bring thus liberate. I, the pressure from the River (it being high weer) broke instan taneously through the interior Coffer-dam, carrying with it the immense piles and timber connected there with this timber, as also that from the Counter dam, wiis arrested at the extremity of the lock, by chains, which were fastened front the op posite sides to the gates: this stoppage caused an immense accumnlatton of water beh:nd, and 1.,r short space formed a most beautiful cataraa ; at length the chains broke, and the whole rushed into the canal. Fortunately the gates at the lock, situated e the Limehouse end, were closed, and stopped I the rater from inundating the un:inished works, and probably doing equal damage, as at the Rlackwall end. 'foe ho:tom of the canal being several feet lower than the bottom of the lock, Me:sudden d rsh of the timber, and the impeturi,ity of the descend ing water, undermined the interior piers conneeted with the lock, and the masonry is entirely destroyed; this, and the similar deitrnetion of the piers ere Ling next to the river, besides the detnoliliun of the dams, appear us be the chief damage. The Directors of the work, with a (audible atten tion, have nor, for some time, permitted the men to work during high water ; it is worthy remark, that from the time of the water breaking through until it reached the Limehouse end, a distance exceeding half a mile, was nearly fifteen minutes. BATH, ..it LV 24. Friday last the Lord Bishop of this diocese conse crated a new Burial Ground, in Walcot-street, for the use of St. Michael's parish. The Bishop and his Chaplain, the Refl.)r and Curate of the parish, to. gether with the Churchwardens, and a number of the principal parishioners, assembled at the York house, and from thence, attended lay verger, usher, and register, walked in procession to St. Michael's Church ; and, after divine service, at which the Rev. Charles Phillott officiated, the Bishap, attended as before, with the whole of the congregation, walked to the burial.ground, where the instrument of d rna• tion was presented to his Lordship ; whilst the A: ch deacon, as chancellor, read the aft or sentence of consecration, which seas signed by his Lordship, and ordered to be registered. The Bishop then read a prayer appointed for the occasion, and dismissed the people with a blessing. His Lordship after wards dined with the Rev. Dr. Phillott, the reflor, and principal parishioners, at: the York-house, where his condescension and affability were eminently conspicuous. On Friday last eleven silver cups, the gift of John Palmer, Esq. Representative in Parliament tnr this city, to the regiment of Bath Volunteers, were shot for on Claverton Down. The cups, which are very handsome, have the fol lowing inscription:—"This cup, presented by J..ihn Palmer, Esq. to excite and reward by his liberality the attention of the Bath Volunteers, was won by ••*, by the b-st sizzle shot at the target, un Cla ♦ertun Down, July 19. 1805."

COURT OF KING'S BEtio I, kLL, Aar R 5. Iliads at Nisi Pries Lard ELLEssonoucm, and a Sreewl L•DEIt 00K V. MO AO iMa II ANOTHER. • . This was an anion brought by the snrativMg trus tees of Abraham Newman, deceased, upon th • De, fendants bond for 12,0001 to which the Defet.de aats had pleaded, first, Oyer or the hond : secondly, That it was not their deed ; and third;: , I'hat , URIS exceeding the legal interest had •reen paid on it. After the junior Counsel in the cause had opened the pleadings, a long consultation took place be tween the Counsel on both sides ; in the ceurs of which. Mr. PARKE intimated to his Lord hip. that grey tensed to save time by it ; however the eotstre- Nice abruptly broke off, and Nir. DA t Las procve4- ed to state the Plaintiffs case. The Plainrifs were eminent hankers of thii and the Defeniants, the Rev. Dottor '4r)igan and George Morgan, Esq were vorlemen of consilere able property in Bucknighamshire. The Plaintiffs were the surviving trustees of Messrs. John Tate and Abraham Newman, the lttter of whom was • formerly in partnership with Morknouse Davidson, deceased, , :iole,ale grocers, well kn 'w., in this city. Mr. 1) rvidson died i i the year 1795, leaving a large property to the two daughters of Mr New man, who were since married to Mr. 3.avell, and 4r. Thoytes. The PI rintiffs, the•ef , ire, were not in terested in this cause, on y as trustees. The Defendants hay n i occasi , o to horow 12,0001. to pay off a mortgage to Philamore Honey wood, Esq. and the trustees having that so n to lay out on good security, they agreed to Advance it t, the Defendants, who were to give them their bond, together with a mortgage, as a , eillatei it se curity. Phis 12,0001. was to be advanced, A. 0.1 the trustees were to take an assignment of the original mortgage. The party to which had given :!6(.4:4:, that it should be paid off by the IV; of -Loch then next ; and it was ten ag'et2 t, 6-,se if the sects, 'ties were not re* ly by that :one, the money shoehl se advanced, the Defendants paying interest fro, 'hat period. Several app'ecations were mate to have the securities petfeaed, which was not don ti,l long after. The original loan was sti..ulate or titres years, but not havi ig a I nccasi ,n for the m 'ter. immediately, it remained five years moue w. the Defendants. The gentlerrie t who i•is,i inertia r two yotrig lad'es having occasion for it. aity:icati na was made for the paynieta in six m snths; out era not being complied with, the pre.ent atijn e at brought, when, to their great astooishmert, a plea was put upon the file, charging the trustees with usury. The bond being proved—. Toe Soticiroa Gt.sett•i., for the Defendants. observed, he could perceive strong symptoms of d s approbation in his learned friend (Mr. Dallas), at this plea, as if his clients had resorted to the st,i,uto of usury to save this money. The conduct ct . the Defendants had been that of the so-a:test propriety; and he had the fullest proof that the plea *as nei. ther unjust nor dishonourable to them ; as an aggra ration against then! it was stated, that they ha . the use of this money for ten years, but there was se curity on as good landed property as any iii Eng land, and the interest had been r , gularly paid This cause was on trial in the month of !my 1805, the anion was commenced in May precedirg. and the first dem and of repayment was made in December 1804. This proceeding he thought as harsh a harsh. tuns could make it ; but the only ohjea of the De fendants was to prevent an unfair advantage being taken, and to save an execution from being put ir.tu their house. No attempt was made to call in the money till December ; a threat was made use of in March, and an arrest would have followed, only :he P/aintiff's attorney was ashamed of it, and (tiey were relieved, for the time, from it: They hat of fered to pay it in twelve month., or to let (he tits tees into possession of the estates, rents, and profits. or to pay 10001. a year, with interest, till all should be discharged. It was very few who could at these times command 12,000'. at a moment; an J, n,t to exceed the bounds of moderation, he thought this very honest treatment. They did not wish to take any advantage of the pie t, they . .vere ready to reel any security, and only wi,tlei to keep off the pay ment till they should be enabled to make it. How ever he was instruaed. he coold support the plea by proof. The money was to be ai:vanced the 10:h of NI Int., but the transaetion di.i wit take place till the iith of June following, :I'd interest was re- V ularly paid up to as 10th of July. If rn s icy hat/ been ascribed particularly on :hat day, the plea could no: he supported ; bat he understood it con sisted of Indic Bonds, and other securities, heating interest, which interest the trustees had received, so that in fact they were receiving double interest. which fully amounted to usury. Notwithstanding ali this, he was willing to forego the plea, and was proceeding to make a further offer, when the parties agreed, that a verditt should be taken for the Plain tiff' ; the Defendants undertaking to pay the amount in twelve months, not to bring any Writ of hrror, and to stay proceedings in Equity. *I he judgment to be stayed till that period ; the costs to be decided by reference. I LIR V. 'occurs. This was an anion to recover the amount of a draft for 3601. upon the bank of Prescott and Co.
