During the last week continual complaints have been made at Marloormigh-street Police Office of the most &nag =,Bons which are daily and nightly committed in some t Bsrwater, and tot the road leadiog thereto. arising *der the followieg circumstances: —Comps,les of Monate. beaks, ander the direction of some well-known performers of celebrity, have pitched " their tents" in some fields sear slam tea-gardens at Bayswater, where they exhibit horse riding. he. and have a kind of lottery for pigs, shits, shoes, ',id shawls, which are gained by some at the risk of a shilling 4.4rit. The exhibitions excite a lively curiosity. and thousands ~f people coll. et together, some highly respectable, while sahers cosseipt of the moss noturiuu• thieves sad vagabonds, ' who, after carnasitsiug various excesses by day, commit robberies by night; and it is absolutely dasgeroes for any person to venture beyond Hyde Park Corner. No leas then tight or ten robberies have been committed on Geollemen ..f their watches *ad other properly in the coarse of a .lay, and burglarise committed in the iseighbourbood.—ss Two fellows on Tuesday night last, contrived to enter the hawse of Mr. Knight, of the tea gardens, whose piece him been continually rubbed.

Several other ho nate were robbed. A man, at an early hour, on 31inoluy night, as he was returning home along the road, war met by a fellow who demanded his money, and robbed him of his unshrella. The thief was shortly after taken into .•nstialy, and she man, who had been dreadfully cut with some itiatrument, was conveyed to the hospital. The prisoner was rensassited.

The deceased, by her deem, appeared to be in very indigent circumstances; there were no marks of violence ou her body, and she ap peared to have been in the water several days. Nothing was Cloud about her which could lead to a discovery who she was, nod the Jury having no evidence how she mut into the water, ninniesl their verdict—" Footed drormed." " An Inquest was also held at the Albany Arms, Long.lane, Bermondsey, on the body of a young gentleman, aged IS, who was drowned whilst bathing in the Grand Surrey Canal. The deceased lived with his aunt, a lady of fortune, re. slding in Albany-strut, and went a few mornings back to the Cana!, near Deptford, to bathe. He had not been long is the water before he was seised wit► the cramp, and im mediately sunk; bat She by tawnier, thought be was only diving, consequently they *tither gave an alarm or the least as,islanee; till, finding that he was an unusually long time Ender, they suspected the fatal truth. Drags were then pro cured, and after a abort search the body was found.

There was a good supply of Vtheat at Norwich market on Saturday, hot little other grain was offered for vale, and the prices remain much as last week.—The skew of both Scot. and ht inebred Cattle was tolerably large; not notch best twat, however, was done, and the terms obtained varied in $ trifling degree from these lately given. The pens were well filled with Sheep and Lambs. At kenniiighall Fair, on Monday last, there was a very large 'hew of Lambs, and a great deal of bitsisiess was done at an early hour; much briskness appeared throughout tbe day; the prices varied from 14s. to 28a. per bead. . . .• A short time ago, ass officer who resides in Atli hone, had all his child►en ill of the hooping cough; there was • pet monkey in the house, which oh solutely took the disorder, and hooped so like the children, that it wee impossible to discriminate be t een them. All the little ones happily recovered, but the monkey, notwitlistandiog the greatest care, died of the complaint. Last week. as Mr. SAMUEL PROSSER, of Tel. girth, Brecoisshire, was einoloying some labouring Mtn in draining a piece of fallow, they found seve ral small serpents, three feet under the surface of the ground. woe inches in length, and about the size of common whipcord, of a grey colour, and some quite white ; three days afterwards, fifteen more of them rose out of the spring, but soon died in the air. Fur several seasons past. many of the farmers in Benend tttt t Kent, and its vicinity, have suffered con siderably from some malicious person or persons having cut the blues in the hop-plantations prema turely. thereby destroying the crop: two of those depredators, u•med Bryant and Crrtteado•. have Leen detected, and committed for trial.

Yesterday General D'Evereux held r military levee at Morrison'.. Dawson-street. Among the company resent, which was numerous and fashion able, we observed a slumber of fine women. The General, Oa entering thy room, was received with a burst of applause. Hr was accompanied by 114 ►taf and the officers of the First Lancers of his Legion. At half-past three Colonel Lyster entered, supported by a number of officers. beating, by de sire of the General. the new stand of colours for Colonel Aylnier's Regiment. Geiser's! D'Evereua then addressed the corps as follows : " Brusher Sohtiers —This Standard you will receive from the hands of a Lady who admires the motives which prompt you to leave your country; and, in the boor of danger, I feel satisfied that the recollsction of this day will animate you in its defence, and stimulate you to deeds of glory. I trust, and am convinced, I shall ever behold this Standard a pledge of your fidelity and your honour; and that, in ral lying round it, you will always shed a lustre upon Ireland." —(Loud and reiterated cheers followed this Address, which was delivered with grace and feeling.) The Lady of Counsellor O'Connell, taking II e Colour's from the General, addressed the Colonel , and his Officers to this effect : "[.asst — 1 have the honour to present you this Flag, which I am sure you will not cherish the less fur bring handed to you by an !tidiest:lmm, who admires and loves those emotions of coivage and sentiments of liberality which bear you far from your native land. May success ' and glory attend your steps, and peat-email happiness crown your efforts! This, Gentlemen, shall be my sincere inlayer." —[Mrs. O'Connell was very impressive, but was evidently much affected towards the conclusion of the Address, which was followed by denim; and waving of hats.] Seldom has there been seen, in a single regiment. as, fine a corps of officers as acme of the Usurers ; they were the admiration of all present. The General went round a vast circle, paying his respects to his friends, and at a quarter b r►'ore five the Levee broke up—every one delighted with the imposing splectacle, so cheering to every fr end of suffering humanity. Au immense number of people surrounded the hotel. RECORDER'S COURT (CORK), TIIIIILIWAY, JULY lb. ■AI.PIN a. BROWNIION. This was an action for an assault—the declare- Lion contained several counis.--Damages were laid at 50/. The Defendant, a Captain of the 25th regiment of font, with several of his brother officers, went nit the 46th of May lasi, on an excursion. fishing mat shooting. up the batiks of the river Lee. Upon passing Major Honner's grounds in the morning, they met the Plaintiff, who was employed by him as wood-ranger, but passed without particularly noticing him. On their return in the evening, be tween wren and eight o'clock, they again met him about the souse spot, near a bridge adjniu ing the demesne. A soldier, *emelt to the De• fendant, observing a musket in the Plaintiff 'a hand, which lie perceived was a military or King's piece. asked him how he came by it, what he wanted of it. and desired him to give it up. This the Plaintiff refused to do, stating his no. cupatioit, and in whose employment he was. The soldier called to his master. who was with his coin ' µanions at some little distance, saying that a sus. picious-looking inset had a King's musket, which he would not give up. Captain Brownson, in re. ply, desired him to take it from him, but the Plain tiffotill refusing, he came up himself and demanded the gun. The Plaintiff declared he would not part with it. repeated his occupation and the MIME of his employer, and as if determined to defend him self. pointed the muzzle of the piece at Captain Brownson, who immediately rushed in and wrested it from hum. The Plaintiff, in au angry tone, dee Mended to have it restored, which Captain Brown son refused, unless he saw Major Winner, or smite written authority fur his carrying arm*, which lie said a person of his appearance, being rather rag ged. was not entitled to. The Plain tiff told hum Major Homier was then from home ; that he hail gut the gun for the protection of the grounds, and that if it was taken away he would lose his employ silent. Finding that he I ould not get it hack, he called to a wothau to call the labourers an the grouhtla to assist, him. for that he had heti robbed of his gtid.; Capt. 13C06111/Un and his party proceeded %bout 200 yards. Mill passing along the Inch through Major Homier's ground, whets the steward. acconatranied by Unir or fiveflcouutry people. overtook them. The Steward explained his own sitwation, that of the Plaintiff. and the absence of Major Honner. and of fered to deposit twenty pounds or guineas witliCapt. Brownson. until the morning, if he would give up the gun. to enable the Plaintiff to continue his watt's for the night. Captain Brownson. however, persisted in bringing the gun away with him, and lodged it in the Adjutant-General's Office. Where it was &tensed until this day. when it was produced in Court. The gun, though charged when pre sented by Halpiu at Captain Bromism', was not primed. These were briefly the material facts of the case. There were other circuminsuces between Major Homier, the Plaintiff's Agent. Mr. Foot. and the Defendant. Browsison, which nut immediately bear ing on the case, we omit. The Plaintiff's cue was proved by the testimony of Mr. Cocker, a respectable citizen, and the steward. On the defence, Capt. Gilbert. one of the party, win called, who denied. what indeed bad not been proved, that any great violence had been used in taking the gun, though stated in the declaretion. This gentleman's opinions. however, with respect to the power of military gentlemen to disposes* persons whom they may con.ider suspicious, or not mottled fr..m their 11111 k to carry arms. did not meet the concurrence of the Court. Neither did the RECORDER assent to his impression that, because the Plaintiff bad been in the army. and is at pre sent a pensioner, his refusal to give up the gun was an act of mutiny which subjected loin to military puoirliment, or that he. any more thou any other person not in the army, was at all amenable to a Military Court. In charging the Jury the Recoßosa eloquently and energetically explained the nature of the mili tary law, as contra-distinguished from the civil law of the land. to which it is in all cases subservient. the military body being merely the hired servants of the people, employed for the purpose of enforcirig its slue execution, but not by any means released thereby from their own responsibility to the c i v il law for any offence not of a military nature. He then toll( a review of the case, leaving to the Jury the quantum of damages to which, under the cir cursistauces, the Mannar was entitled—neither considering the rank of the one as • palliation, nor the poverty of the other as disentitling him to rens/moldy but not vindictive damages fur the in. jury.—Verdict for the Plaintiff—damages 51.

During the dreadful thunder storm on the even ing $.l M hey re'imight, the electric fluid struck the top of Sedgeford steeple, on tire west si.le, and precipitated to the ground several stones of consi derable magnitude, wAltorig a breach en the well of shout a void square.

Ass evening school was held previous to the occurrence of the above accident, which hap. relied about nine o'clock in the evening. The dis. may occasioned by the awful coofiret of the ele ments may be better conceived than described ; the children rushed out of the church nearly in a state of distraction. uttering the most dreadful shrieks; parents in *ranch of their children ; the incessant and vivid fishes of lightning. succeeded moutru tarily by &raffial peals of thunder, accompanied with torrents of rain and hail, such as were never remembered by the °Wort inhabitants. formed scene truly terrific. A gill about fourteen years of age, the daughter of Robert Noises. was left in the school-room, and on being missed her father went in search of her, when on entering the room he found her lifeless on the floor. Fear is supposed to have been the cause oilier death. as tlwre was no appearance of the electric fiord having entered the room. A few pieces of mortar were detached from the ceiling, which in all prolorb.lity was efficted by the shuck communicated to she steeple. sir by the concussion of the stones falling to the ground. Verseris,t2 die MASONS. JOHN INGRAM LOCKHART, Esq. in the Chair. John Thomas Barber Rearmost, Roy. farther examined. Have you omitted any thing iu your former statement you wish to add ?—Yes. Upon what other bead ?—lo respect to the prices : i wish to skew the effect of the competitiow raised by the Golden lane brewery. I have observed that this competition canted the brewers to lower their price from Ad. to 541. per pot ; amid that in every year following, fur right years, the prices of malt and hops averaged higher than in the year 1804, when the rise to 6d. per pot was made. My calculations are drawn from The Comfy Chronicle, a paper in chief esteem among agricultural persons in and about the 'metropolis. Now, supposiog that the brewers if left to themselves would not have taken any advantage of those rises, bet had remained satiolied with the sixpence per put which they fixed is 1804, the competition which was raised by reducing their price to Gee-peace, and keeping it down to that mark foe eight years, saved a sum a little short of eight millions sterling for the industrious classes of the metropolis; and, what is most int portant of all, at the same time produced to them a very . improved as tick of sustenance.

Do you know whether the tolositing which is now made from malt is made from malt very highly turveird, and that is rolliCipirnee it has a temlency to resole► the beer suite ? I have lately had an upporimaity, I have hero employed. tn. deed, to examine several wets of malt, and 1 find that nearly all the varieties of brown malt put into my hand gyre an infoximi that ran rapidly jots. an serious termentati 0000 0 and did not produce any quantity of spirits of wine, which skews they contained nu sensible quantity of sugar. I. that owing to the quantity of chaffy substance they coo mined ?—Nu ; I appreheod it is owing to tint or three certain. stances; in the first place, ittferiur sons of barley ore used for making the brown malts, because the best malt is that which is of the palest colour; and as the monsters and brewers judge • good deal of the quality of their matt by culotte, it is • mat ter of importance to retain the finest specimens sit barley for the beat kinds of malt, namely, pale malt; therefore the brown malt gets. generally speaking, barley of a• inferior description to other malt, that has either sprouted in the field occasionally or been rained upon. and been spoiled, or it low not been matured so ninth as the other barley ; the consequence of that is, that when it is subject to the process of onaltiog, the germination, in which the process of malting novitiate, does not go on so regularly ; the same grains will run thorough the process and beyond it, while other grains will root have gone • sufficient length ; therefore the brown malt will consist of some grains that are properly malted, other grants that are too much malted, and other grains that are little; in consequence of that, there will be • less proportion of sugar in that malt than in the pale malt; thete, besides that, in order to give the brown malt that degree of torn-faction which is necessary to produce the colour required in porter, it must be exposed to • mach higher beat than is necessary for the pale malt, and that da grit of beat, io proportioa as it increase' the colour, dials nishes the sugar, because the sugar is the first I htng that gives way under the influence of the heat; and all that the mall. eters, in the common method of making their brown malt, get in the way of colour, they lose in the way of sugar. Theo that malt which is the most highly torrelied to pre date colouring gives the least strength and most colour, sod it is also less liable to create the acetone fermentation?— SS the commie brown malts, as far as I have examined them, raisin so large • proportion of starch and oilier matter which Is **bible, at the temperature at which the brewers make their mashes, that all those infusions run very rapidly i n to the acetous fermentation ; the only variety of torrelled malt I have aces which is not liable to run into that state of fermentation, is one for which $ _patent is taken out, and is called palest malt; that is owing to the peculiar chemical change which has takes place in it. If contriteo starch is takes and exposed to the utmost degree of heat, it will bear short of being converted tutu elm•. coal ; it is con verted into a substance very near rewrobling gum ; it is no longer starch; starch is perfectly insoluble is cold •ater ; whereas this gum, which is produced by the torrefactiui of the starch, is perfectly soluble, and an infusion of this nei ther runs to spirituous Bur acetone fermentation ; in short, it appears to me to undergo no alteration alter having beer exposed to the air fur even week. ; but in :process of time, like all other vegetable itifusions, it becomes mouldy, sad is decomposed. IYoulit beer keep better, and he more acceptable to the taste, if no colouring was used at all ?—I conceive the beer would keep best with such a proportiou of sugar and fer. ment, that by the process of fermentation would mutually destroy each other, while the Cootie liquor would be the result. It not that process. in a degree impeded by the use of highly.culuured malt ?-1 thick it is by the common brow* malt, because the COMMAS brown malt gives to the infasioa ■ large quantity of ferniest. bat little, if any sugar, and on that accouat they are very apt to run to the salutes fermea lotion.
