He was Otte taken into custody. William Simpson, the coachman, was examined at great length, and like the foregoing witnesses, confirmed that which he stated before the Alderman at Guildhall, yester day, addiny ' that his poster was every morning in the habit of driving t he coach from Chatham to Brampton, for the purport of taking up passengers and luggage, 01111 setnristog hack to Chatham, and be (witness) drove the coach to Lou don; the hamper and matted inmate were taken up at Brampton, brought by a man in a smock frock, who, with the assistance of a soldier, who was on sentry at the bar racks, placed it ou the roof of the coach; his porter had uo knowledge of the man. Coruner—Do you recollect whether any bodies have been stolen from Chatham or Bromptun at any time previous to this Irausaclion ? Witnem--No, not to my knowledge. I recollect mime time ago two men 11.4 re dii.turbed in s wood nrar Gravesend, and where they left two busman brads behind, which was supposed to hose been stolen from some burial.ground, it was mid Gillingham. . 11 was intimated to the Coroner, that the man who went In the Cross Keys fur the bodies, was bring examined at Gnildhall, he immediately sent fur him, and be was brought in custody of twit officers. Upon the Coroner asking him his name and address, he gave his name Juhu Williams, and living at Nu. S, Sta► Corner; upon which Herring, an officer belonging to East Grinstrad, stepped forward, and told the Coroner that his name was George Marlin, and he was for merly ass East Griastrad carrier, sad since that, he has got his livelihood by procuring subjects fur surgeons, and is now on bail for twenty cases of a siruilnr nature. His friends resided at East Griustead, and two bodies were stolen lately from there, and it was strougly suspected they were disin terred by him. A shurt time since, Hemmale and Hollis were examined and committed to Dartford gaol, fur stealing the Plumstead Postman. The Prisoner tendered himself as one of the bail; lie was recognised by witness and rejected. The Prisoner was sent back to Guildhall, ■nd the Comore and Jury having couferred together, returned a Verdict of Nalmral Death, but disinterred fur the purpose of dis section. DESTRUCTIVE FIRX. Oa the evening of Monday last, between eleven and twelve o'clock, a most alarming fire broke out in the sta bles belonging to the George Inn, Perth, which, wiring to the combustible nature of the materials in the bay-lofts, spread with irresistible fury. The inhabitants alarmed by the sound of the drum and fire-bell, soma arrived in numbers at the spot. Two fire engines, belonging to the town, were conveyed to the stable yard; and the barrack engine,w birth was in excellent condition, having bees placed nets the Tay, Irwin which it received a plentiful supply of water, emit' dusted very much to stop the further progress of the destructive element. But before any effectual assistance was procured, four different houses anti a granary were all in one bl3ae of flame, and had a very awful and terrific appearance. We regret to state, that ten line bursts were burnt to death in the stalks. All ranks of per sons seemed to vie with each other in their endeavours to arrest the peeves, of the fire, sod, before three o'clock next morning, it was completely got under. The whole of the pi °petty, we understand, is insured.--(Pertl Courier.) SPORTING..-30 Monday last a match was run over Barton] Downs Course, which has excited much interest in the sporting world, between Mr. PuLLEN'a bay mare fidget, and Mr. HOWARD'S horse Handal, sst. each, for 200g5., and was won by the mare in good style. Many thousands were depending; the horse the favourite, and the know ing ones taken in. This mare was beat by Mr. CRAMP'S Pimlico, over the same Course, in Au gust last. A battle will be fought this morning for 100 guineas, between Black George, servant to Captain Smart. she pedestrian, and Sass Arnold, a Wilt ? , shire man, of much promise. made at Irvine Rooms. A few days ago • bottle was cast on shore at Arrautuore I.laud, county Donegal. which con tained • paper with the following memorandum:— " Thrown overboard his Majesty's ship Isabella, in a voyage of discovery, on the 7th Jane 1818, in lat. 66. 32. 30. %with, long. 56.25. west of Greenwich, for the purpose of ascertaiiiing the current.—JOHN ROSS, Coninssuder.” REGULAR ATTRNDANCR.—it is a remarkable circumstance that a respectable miller of Market Doping has regularly visited Boston on the first Monday in every month for the last thirty-eight years !

After endeavouriug in vain to per suade Mrs. CARLILS to pull the statue down. she attempted to do so herself by violence. Some persons who were 'lauding in front of the shop ob served what was passing within, and prevented the woman from wreaking her vengeance on PAINS'S effigy. She declared that force only should re. move her, unless she was permitted to destroy the object •of her hatred. At length she was turned out of the shop. and she departed, vowing that she would yet watch her opportunity and effect bee purpose. MELTON MOOTRAY, OCTOIIIIII 13.

[From Illathicood's Aplinbatrgh iiegasiael We shall not here enter at large upon the question, whether the superabundant population of this °court try may be employed on the waste lands, as pro- posed by Alderman Wood. or subsisted its villages, us attempted to be practised by Mr. Owen. We cannot however help thinking and saying, that somewhat more is required to compose human happiness titan hare existence, whether that existence arise from the enclosure and cultivation of fens and mountains, or from pauper and extra-parochial republics. It is useless to lay down maxims that will be slight ed by those whose wants are pressing and imme diate. Poverty has neither time nor temper to reason upon remote advantages. Doubtless, plans may be proposed which, with wisdom and economy, might ultimately support the surplus population of Great Britain; but while so MUCII distress prevails, and emigration has be- come the passion of our restless mid dimatisEed poor, it behoves the practical philanthropist, while he pities the one, to couvert the other to the best ad vantage. The evil of mendicity exists to an utiques tionable and iterating extent, and we have seen with what avidity adventurers hare left their mauve shores for the wilds of America. It is too late in the day to risk of giving to each individual his acre of lend. The growth of trade and wealth forbids such Utopian divisions. Extent, or, if you please, mo nopoly of property, is the natural consequence of commerce and civilization, and the few rich must make the many pour. The poor, however, will In crease in numbers, if not in wealth, sod swarms of the enterprising indigent are ever found ready iti over-grown countries, to exchange the certainty of want at home for the chance of abundance abroad. We need scarcely appeal to history in at testation of these truths. We would nut be under stood to discourage the efforts of philanthropy, to retain and employ the poor in their own country. Every possible exertion should be made to alleviate their wants and stimulate their industry. To this we are urged no less by mural than political duty. Idleness is the mother of want, and the nurse of vice and sedition. An unemployed and licentious poor is the deadliest cancer of a State. But to our subject. The Chancellor of the Exchequer has submitted to Parliament the expediency of voting 50,0001. towards the encouragement of emigration to the Cape of Good Hope. Let it be remembered, once for all, that it is nut because that Colony is too thin of inhabitants, but that the Mother Country is too full, this plan is suggested. The question is nor, how you may maintain a surplus peasantry in the land that - gave them birth, but, whether you will stop emigration to the frozen shores of Canada, and to the United States, or divert amid en courage it to the finest colony in the world. We surely have learnt enough of North America to con vince us of the degraded and miserable coudition of Its people. South Airier, on the other hand, has every advantage to repay the sacrifice of quitting the land of our forefathers. The more fully to understand and appreciate these advantages, we shall set before our readers a short view of the condition and facilities of the co lony in question. The spring, from September to December, is the most agreeable season. The summer, from De cember to March, is often intensely hot. The autumn, from March to June, is generally fine and pleasant. The winter is rainy and stormy, and fur the most part so cold as to make fires very com fortable during the months of July, August, and September. Most of the diseases that appear amongst the natives proceed rather from their gross and indolent mode of living. than the unhealthi ness of the climate. The scarcity of water in sum mer is unfavourable to cultivation ; and fur want of industry or materials this defect is not reme died, as it is in India, by artificial tanks or reser voirs. Where. however. irrigstion can be employed, either fiom wells or rivers, tin most abundant ve getation ensues. Good and abundant water has al iens been found by digging wells in Cape Town and the vicinity. In the whole colony there is scarcely a river that can be called navigable. Though swollen into torrents duri n g the winter, most them dry up during the summer. The principal rivers on the southern coast. are the Berg mild Oliphant. Both tlicae have deep and permanent streams, yet the mouth of the former is choked up with a bed of sand, and across the latter is a reef of rocks. The Sunday river rises iii the snowy ,mountaics, amid fulls into A lgos bay. It is narrow and deep towards its mouth, and is choked, like the rest, %jib a lied of sand. The Great river forms the boundary of the colony from Catlrana. and though large and sufficiently deep for *Lips, has also a bar that crosses its mouths, The wily rivet that seems nevi. gable is the Kroysna. This is an arm of the bra, into which the stile sets tl gb a narrow passage . as into a iluck•; within. there is plenty mil deep water. The basin or lake is studded with a num ber of flat island*, mill the surrounding bills are clumped with forest trees to the water's edge. In is called. by Barrow, 6. the grainiest and most beautiful part of Southern Africa." All t h ese risers are well stocked anti perch, eels, and small turtle; uilline a cretin's distauce from the roast, they abosind with the several fish peculiar to these seas. There is a general waist of w..od in S.mili Attica. At the distance, however, of 15 milts f Algoa hew. there i• a large forest of many thousand acres, Smile of these trees (t4xus eluergatop) grow to the amazing rise of 111 feet iii diameter, and to the height of 30 or 40 fret of trunk clear of branches. The wood is useful fur usaiq purposes, hut will not bear exposure to weather. The iron-wiroil grow. to the size of 3 feet in diameter, and the trunk straight and very high. The liassagai•wood is n beautiful tree, about the size of the iron-woad, and is used bar tonal implements of husbandry. Stink-wood (from its offensive smell) is the native oak of South Africa, and is by marry degrees the best produced in the Colony. It snakes ireautiful furniture, and appears to be well calculated for ship-building.— There are various other kinds of trees, but these are the must rioted and useful. Still there is a great want of wood ire Cape Town, and the most extravagant profit is made upon foreign umber. Wood is shirr the o n ly indigenous fuel to the co lony, and iit Cape Twee is eactsavely expensive. Coale, though brought from England, are thou,ht u much cheaper furl. . _ Most *1 the European, and several of the Crow. cal fruits, bare been already introduced ii.to th-! luny, and cultivated with Stleen*, melons, figs, and guavas, are most uliund,.„t „„,i excellent; peaches delicious, and apricots wit-rink/ good.
