Partridge shooting commenced on Friday, and perhaps there never was a season which presented such a plentiful supply of birds. They are, however, remarkable strong on the wing, and the want of cover for them, owing to the early harvest, makes them wild and shy, and adds considerably to the labour of the fair sponsman. fhe poacher has been more sueces4ul, and we hear that immense int:tubers of birds have been netted.— 6;lu:wester Journal. l'artridge shooting c.nmenced on Friday.

FA LE I RK.—Sunlay last was marked for the sudden rise IA lacb the thermometer experienced, rendering the at:mo st-4re so sultry, that we were reminded of the late great Law, and which was not diminished by the peals of distant thunder that continues' to grumble during the afternoon. As a. quarter to nine o'clock in the e,ettieg, one of the p,ratidtst cdestial phenomena 11,st has accurst in the me ;log of the oldest person tea; exhibited. The air was roti4 calm, but there wa; to heat Mess which indicates' a stertbarge of electric math r. A visit' glare of light, t'isislna every object with a rde blue colour, suddenly blasted forth in the havens, rendering the minutest object tiotbie as at noon day. '1 he eye, of every person in the J r.reat wire instantly directed to the east, where a most su blime sight met their gaze. A large body of fire, in shape like a jargenelle pear, and apparently of the if.e of a bee-hive, was moving in a direction from W. to N. E. with a rushing nots^, something simi lar to that of a rocket. It left behind it a very long train, not of sparks, but fluid-like, and of the most resplendent psismatie colour. It continued visible for nearly fifteen eug o lo ts, basing goon over a space of about 43 degrees, gal descended app manly so low that it actually seemed to te:prohels within a hundred feet of the earth. At htlin -I.4sgh, we learn, that it appeared approaching the east most of File, and waa t h ere thought equally low—so ge neral is this peculiar appearance of these ethereal wild colts, which, liewcver, must soar at an immense elevation. Ilav ;ngeisuaned a deep etimson tint, it we; extinguished with t any explosion, seem,' pieces of red matter, like cinders, failitog perpendicularly downwards, which were evidently Li4t burnt remains of the nucleus. The wind soon after. wards became high, and we have experienced several wel come showers, that rejoice the heart of the farmer ; and which, in the east country, caused quite a deluge; while e tt.e old wives predict tome terrible, event to follow this • sign in the lit . v, its," that reminds them of a similar one, cud to have filled men's minds with a urcad presen t •oes.t, diertly previous to dm French nevolution.—.Stie ex.loorauf. ‘i.r. A KDREVI . S.—On Sunday evening last, at about a toartee before nine o'clock, there was seen a highly 1 ruinous meteor to the south-er.st of this city. When it war Brat observed it had the appearance of a comet of tratueeesdent brightness, haying it nucleus of about half a dr:reeks diameter. It appeared to about forth in a direc tion.ieum S.E. to N.W.. over a circular path of about 33 deg., and gradually diminishing in magnitude, until it Lull/ disappeared. What was perhaps most remarkable in this meteor was, that in its orbit it did not present an nithrolten volume of light, but appeared to throw out Infght•apaika in all directions, resembling in come degree a sky.-rocket.—(The tame appear ance was o b served at Cupar a: drie r :ante time.)—Fife Herald.

Alarestose-Honag.—A fellow, named Sinuns Nelson, wart brong t up yesterday, on a charge of having defrauded a poor wan ah of 2s. dd. by means of cups and balls.ll I lie prisoner belongs to a gang cared " nobble's," who live by r ultng poor market people at a game well known at country 11;ra and race.. One of these fellows mations himself at a table v ith three cups arid a small ball : he transfer. the ball dexterous ly from cup to cop, and offers io bet that it is not under a particular cup. One or two fellows, his accomplices, who appear to he specta lora, bet end win large mums. The man with the cup still proceeds to bat adventurously that the ball is not under any ;macular one, although every bystander had seen it there distinctly. At last the cupidity of one cr more of the by-standers is excited; they put down their money on the table—the cup is raised, when, lo! the ball is not there, and tile fi How sweeps the money into his own pocket. Now and then, countrymen, not being inclined to rii.trit.t their own eyes, swear they have been cheated, and will hare their money back. A tight ensues, in which, the accomplices joining their principal, the loser gets thrashed, and, in addition, robbed of the immey he may have about hint. The po r woman had been induced to put down half-a-crown, part of her little capital, with which she was going to marker. She raised an outcry when the cuplsas raised, and the ball was tint there. A bustle ensued, in which her pockets were emptied, and she lost all the money she had about her. The trick in performed by means of a small black ball of wax, which sticks to the nail of Lie rerformer whenever he wants it. The prisoner was sent for six week% to the tread-mill as a rogue and vagabond; and the woman was reprimanded for her cupidity.

BOW-ST REET.--Vestenlay, a man about fifty years of age, totally blind, was brought before THOMAS HALLS, neg., at the of one of the managing clerks of Messrs. Coutts and Co.'s banking-house, on a charge, the nature of which will be best ga thered from the statement of the complainant, who deposed that, for several years, the firm which he represented, lied the persons who were employed in it, had been annoyed by constant visitsfrom the defendant, who had got a wild notion into his head—whether the result of insanity or of cunning he could not tell—that be had deposited no less a sum than 103,000/. in the halide of Messrs. Gonne. and that lie had a claim upon them for that amount, with the exception of snmething more than 1,21.171. Its., which, he al- leged, had been surreptitiously drawn fano the banking-house by one Mists Murray. Ile was in the habit of sending and coining to the house with demands for money, and he was al.o constantly sending drafts for various sums. Yesterday morning thedetrndant came. with two oilier persona, and pre-ented a drat . ; for 50/., for which he demanded rayinent, and persisted in his declaration that lie had a large sum of money in the louse, and that it was unjustly kept from him. It was then determined to have the defendant taken into custotly, in order to get rid of the annoyance which he had so long ocetwione I. The defe. that, in answer to the charge, ertered into a long nar rative, trim which, and front the explanatory statements of two g ntlemen (one a solicitor), who accompanied him, we gathered the following I i , cuinstaaces :—The defendant, before lie was blind, resided tot a great many years with a relation of his, at Oakham, rein Merton, named William Thompson, who was a smuggler. nn.l nener of a vessel named the Betsey, with which lie traded to the coasts of France and Holland ; and in that and other specula tions he was so successful as to accumulate a great fortune. The defendant occasionally went with him, and, indeed, was a sort of partner. %diem IFilliatil Thompson retired from trailing, lie and tee defendant continued to reeiiie together, and NVilliain always that John should have all he was worth alien he died. Wil dem did die at last, and then John, :according to his own account, calve into pM41.1,i01 of 103,0010., all in Beale-notes, which he thrust into his pockete, sold the home and furniture, and vet off t i London, taking up his abode at Islington. There, unluckily, he gin acquainted with one Mies Murray, who so captivated lint), that he took her " under his protection." She, however, soon took en opportunity of depriving him of four thousand p-unds, in additien to which she Raped liini to spend 1.0001. Finding that lie was in a fair way ti get rid of his fortune very ra pidly, if he continued with Miss Murray, he left her. and took a snug lodging in Stewart's-rents. Drury-lane (a queer place, car. tainly, for a man worth more than a jr/ner); but she soon Mumd hint nut, te 4 at length lie was obliged to seek another lodging; and, finally, by the advice of one Widiain Jones, a man shunt he had known but a short time, lie determined to put his money into the banking-house of :Messrs. Coutts and Go. dimes was to steam nany him upon this busieets, and they met at it public house in St. Martin's-lane, from whence they proceeded to Coutts'e bank, at Le ween seven and eight o'clock in the morning. This was in the year HILL They were introduced to Mr. Coutts himself, and he tole the money, entered the sum in a book, and in that bank the ee'clitlant wrote his signature, Mr. Coutts telling hint that that was quite a sufficient security for h nt, as the tiansaetion would always app..ar in the books, and there was no necessity fur a receipt. He was to receive five per cent. per annum upon the whole amount of 103 0001. bliss Illuiray got scent of where the money was depo t& ed, and she contrived to get possession of 1,21171.115., the amount of tune month,' interest. by a forged order. The forgery was din covaed, and she was detained, but got away by giving to the clerk %11l detected the forgery one halt of the sum mentioned. The de en lent added to ell this, that he could never get his money from the time he deposited it. Mr. HALi.s said the story appeared to him to be extremely ab turd, and asked the gentleman front Comte'. if he hail carefully examined the hocks, and if the defendant had any money at all pl.. c Ito his credit. The ct - mplainant said he had, and that there wall no such trans action as lied been described entered. Beeides, the banking-house writ never known to have been opened earlier than nine o'clock, and the defendant had sad he was there between seven and eight. Mr. HALLS asked the defendant how he knew he went to Cout ts's, u he wax blind ? and he replied that he knew he did, fur ti at the servant called 31r. Coutts front the other part of the Inate, where he dwelt, and became and received the money. The complainant said Mr. Comte hail lint resided in the house for the last 20 years. The firm htd received letters from different pro'nnisienal men, at various times. upon the prtsent subject; all of whom, however, had abandoned the csuse upon an explanation being given. . S me more conversation took place, in the entree of which Miss ustay being again mentioned, the defendant happened to say that the lady was very fond of giving him opium. " ht d pray," (*did Mr. HALLS, ••• do you ever take opium now lt" Defend •nt—Ne, Sir. Mr. HALLS—Because ycur story appears to me vet . ) , like the dream arm opium enter. The defendant persisted stoutly in his story thet lie had the tneney. and that he had taken it with:Jones to Goutts's. Mr. Ilm.es skid, that in the first place, strictly speaking, he had no authority to go into a case of this kind at all—it was a matter entirely of law. Ile lied done so, however, from a kindly feeling for the defendant ; but be must row tell him, that if he persisted in going to Messrs. Cams's, and presenting drafts 1.4- the fitment of money, he would render him se lf Fable to a prosecution ler an attempt at fraud. It was quite absurd to suppotre that such a house as Messrs. Coutts's would detain a single shilling had been deposited s hit them ; and it was very evident that the defendant was willing to practise an imposition of his own coining, or that he had been imposed upon himself in some way cr other. The defrodant was then dismissed, and left the office with his fiends, but sneered by no means satisfied with the result of the inquiry. . . CHARGE OF BIGAMY. Mr. Thomas Taylor, a respectable master tailor, in Bear -forcer, Leicester-aguare, was brought up on a warrant, by William Smith, jun. charged with the crime of bigamy. It will doubthis be in the recollection of our readers, that several months ago I case of assault was heard at the Mansion-house, which made much noire at the time, and in which a merchant or stirek-broker in the city, of the name of Healthy and a Mr. Taylor, were the prosecutor and defendant. The dispute, upon that occasion, arose out of the alieged adultery , of Mr. Healthy and Mrs. Taylor ; and the Mr. Taylor now charged whit bigamy. is the same person who oppearel at that time in the character of defendant on the charge of assault. Smith deposed th.:t he apprehended the prisoner that morning in the Piazza, C'ovent-garden, on a warrant; and, from certain certificates and other documents which lie had seen, he had reason to suspect, and did suspect and believe, that the prisoner had rem. mated the crime of bigamy. Mr. Butler (Mr. llaroter's clerk) showed certificates of two marriages contracted by the prisoner, and stated that from the shortness of notice he bad hot been as yet able to procure the at tendance of necessary witnesses; and he had therefore, on behalf of the prosecution, to beg that the prisoner might be ?rounded to a future day. Mr. HALLS—Tiare you any thing to say, Mr. Taylor? becanse I am ready to hear you ; but, mind, I do not ask you to say any thing. Mr. Taylor askel if he would he allowed to send for his Solicitet, and was told he certainly would, but it was n ecessary he Amid be remanded, and that would give him time to prepare for his defence. Mr. Taylor said that if he had committed the offence charged, it was in total innocence, for be had no idea but that his first w& wan long since dead. lie married her rum he was an appientice at Birmingham, a goal many years ago, end she left him to live with a Mr. Tibbett, by whom she had a c hild, an d s h e next lived with Mr. Bragg, at the Basle place, by whom she had one or two THE BRITISH PRESS. children. llc (defendant) had not seen her for 14 years, and verily believed she was dead when he married his last wife. Mr. Butler aaid be had reason to believe that the defendant had seen his wife within a much shorter period then be had stated. The defendant said, if he could not recollect the precise number of rears, he multi' well remember that it was at the time of the Princess Ainclies death that he last saw his wife. 111 r. ISutler — l f:nee been inrtructed otherwise. I)efet:dant—Then, Sir, you have been ittatrtirted wrong. The defendant went on testate that lie lived very happily with his second wife mail the was seduced by Mr. Henpity, and that this char e would never have been made hot tin that circumstance. T;le fact was, it was made for the purpose of doing away with a suit which c hid commenced. • Mr. II At. Ls said that, tntler all the circumstances, he should feel inclined to take bail for the defendant's appearance on a future day, anti asked Mr. Butler if he consented. Mr. &diet said be would leave it entirely with the worthy Magistrate. He rliculd neither offer an objection not give a direct conaent. Mr. Illat.t.s then directed that the further examination should take place on Saturday next, and said be would take bail, the de. fendant in 1011/. and two sureties in MIL each. Fubsequently, Mr. Arnett, a Solicitor, appeared for the defend ant, and reqeested to be allowed to peruse the information upon whic!l the warrant was granted ; to ark as a favour that an earlier , day might be appointed for the re-examination ; and, finally, to re quest that the amotest of hall demanded might be reduced. Mr. Arnett declared that die prosecution was 'instituted for no other I purpose than to defeat an action fur aim. con. which Mr. Taylor bud commenced. Mr. Taylor mentioned, as an addizlonal circumstance in favour of his innocence, that his list wile, before they were married. went down to Birmingham, to ascertain if his first was really dead; and the returned and stated that she was. 31r. HALLS consented to the application for access to the repo. sition, and reduced the amount of bail to 50/., and two sureties in 23/. each ; notice to he given. The warrant war granted upon the information of " Thome. Dobson, of Bucklerthury, in the city of London, merchant and the information awed that the informant had reason Ce. litre that the defend:•nt had committed the crime of bigamy, by intermarrying with Maryti3ond, at St. George's, Hanover-agnate, his wire Anne being at the time alive. The defendant was directed to give notice of bail. OUTKAGEOUS ASSAULT. HATTOW•GATIDEN.—YeatertIay, four young men, named Mau Jones. Smith, and A.sg .'o schuss, were brought !fore A. S. LAING, Eeq. from the watchlionee, under the following cherger— bona the teminiony of a number of witnesses, it appeared that,. l about three o'clock on Sunday afternoon, the four prisoners were parading (Day's Inn:lane and Slow-pleasant, in a mate of intoxi cation, and rflitring insults to every missing individual. They then turned into Tothill.street, and grossly instilled some femaks look ing from a window, whom they swore they would have out of the house by force ; they then rushed into the house, and mistaking the apartment, forced the door of a roam in which a young man named Terry was sleeping; without the least provocation, he was dragged from his bed into the passage, knocked down, kicked. and had his right leg broken in two places. An alarm by this time had been given, and several constables entered the house at the moment that Smith and Angelo Moss were in the set of dragging him down stairs by the legs. A desperate struggle ensued; during which Smith effected hie citeape. but was elm to the Foundling, by Cadly, the beadle, after a severe resistance. They were all safely lodged in the watch-house, and the unfortunate Terry taken to the !Joannal. The prise -lets, who pleaded intoxication as their excuse, were ordered to find good bail. and Smith and Angelo Moss to give forty eight hours notice thereof. PROFA ` A T lON OF THE SABBATH. MARLBOROUGH STREET—Mr. George ekaeliy, hair-dresser and billiard-table. kr eper, of Pickering-place, St. James's, appeared to avommons, at the instance of Mr. Golding, for exercising his wt , rldly callings on the Lord's Day, contrary to the provisions of the statute. Duckland, the beadle of St. Tamer's, stated, that on Sunday week, about a quarter to twelve, he saw three persona playing at billiards, during divine service, in the defendant's house; one ap peared to be the marker. The windnws were open, and the loud talking of the players could he heard in St. Jemes's•equare. He also saw persona playing at the delendent's tut Sunday. Mr. Cleaeby keeps a marker, and has play in his rooms every day re gularly. Mr. Holding is a neighbour to Mr. Cleasby; has spoken to the defendant several times ; it is the common complaint of Mr. Lock, Mr. Berry, and other neighbours. Play is kept up at the defend ant's as late an three in the morning; is sure the noise might he heard at Willis's. He did not wish to press the case if the nui. since were abased. Mr. Cleasby has children, and ought to set them a better exarnple. Mr. Cleasby admitted keeping the house, and having a table ; but dill no more than the whole of his neighbours. The Travel len' Club played every Sunday evening; so tlid all the clubs. His could not be called • public table • he gave no public intimation— it was not written up that he ha d a billiard-table ; Ire never took sny money for the Sunday's play : certainly he did on other days. Sure he might play privately with a few Weeds, just to pans an hour. In he liable to an information if he strikes a ball on a Sun day ? Ile did not underst a nd the sunnuom—it a ill fee wotkirg on a Sunday. Mr. CoxANT told the defendant it was not moral for a man with a family to stiffer gambling in his house on a Sunday. It sigeitied notl;ing his not writing it up ; the frequenters of his sons knew very well that he kept a billiard-table ; there was no liabi lity in his doing that; hut the play must not be carried on on Sun day. As the matter wax not pressed, on his undertaking to discon tinue the play on the Sundays, he should dismiss the information on the payment of the costs-3e. 6d. Mr. Cleasby made the promise, but added, that Mr. Lock had never complained. Mr. Golding was the first to complain. Tlit neighbours said, since Mr. Onlding had come into the place, he had made himself very troublesome. Mr. Golding—l.shall calait articles of the peace against you. Mr. ROE told the gentlemen he could not have that sort of ee -1 crimioation there. Mr. Cleasby paid the 3s 6t1., and the parties separated. STREET ROBBERY. Sarah fleece, a young woman well known at the office, war brought front St. (]ilea's watch-house, for rubbing Mr. Wallace of lie. or 154., on Sunday evening. W'iiliam Wallace, a Scotch tailor, slid, ht passing the end of George-street, in High-street, the primmer and another girl caught hint each by the sum and heti hint against tire wall, while a young man thrust h is hand Into hinlnwsers' pocket, and turned it inside out ; some of the money fell into the street ; it was done in a mo ment ; he think.' he had 151. but can swear to 14n. Both girls be. gait to scramble for the money. Witness called the watch ; one of the girls and the young man ran away ; Ire pursued, as did the watchman, but dianot catch them. %Viten he came back he saw the prisoner standing in the smite place, and gave her in custody ; he eon swear to I;cr person.

Mr. Ilitoucittox—This is n Mogul:et. charge; what provoca. tion dirt you give him ? :Hiss Madeira:rt.—Noire in the world, Sir, I never saw him before with troy eyes. Mr. BnounltTON—Did he want to get your money, or offer to kiss you ? Oh ! no, Sir ! (Kahl Mies Bradshaw), he did not attempt to rob me, nor corn to kiss me.

Shepherd was taken to the Middlesex Hospital, and Conway to the watch.honse. Mr. Broughton said it was a most aggravated case: the street keeper was endeavourer g to render him an t siential service by tilting him and his property home in safety, when he was incapa ble of doing ci her for himself, and he had returned it by doing him a most setinus injury. He rot cninitiiited. John Harris was hrought forward by Mr. Stephen Litter, on a charge of assault and (minus driving.

The complainant asked him what he was dning there. lie answered, that lie did rot mean to make any resistarce, and that 6c would surrender; upon which the complainant sent for a constable. and gave bin in ems. tody. They searched the prisoner, but he had nothing. Mr. lkrry'a brother-in-law corroborated Mr. IL's testimony. and added, that the prisoner said, when they came up to him, that he was glad they discovered him, as he might have done worse, and I that it would be a warning to othera.

Thomas Moore, the apprentice, admitted the fact of his being an apprentice, and was no: as yet two years so. lie also wan calhl on to produce his indenture, which he did ; at the same time he did not deny working the barge on the day spcifiinl in the information. Ile was accordingly convicted, and his conviction also convicted his master. Captain It ICIIBF:LL said he was obliged, under the Art, to call on 11'llarry to pay the penalty of 10s. and costs. Ile observed that it was rather a eurions statute, whereby the offending party escapes ; nor does the Act even make the provision that" should the offence be committed without the privity or consent of the master;" with or Without, it operates alike. So an apprentice may at any time inflict a fine on his toaster. Mr. aNiarry having paid the fine and the costs, all parties then left the office. CHARGE OF RURGLARK.
