LATE DREADFUL ACCIDENT ON CHESTER RA CB COURSE. A writer in the Sporting Magarine, ender the aignatore of " NIMROD," airier noticing the late no-luorholy occident on the Chester Coulee, by which William Deno lost his life, pays— " A fatality attends Cheater Race Comm.; for ocareely • • Mectms passes bet some accident takes place. Your readers most recollect that Lord S•ansford:srider ansttilled „n the spot rutty three yeses ago : and had it not been that the poor man who ha■ now lust his life Upon it, elided his Norse, slut . let him in' (as they say), Harry Arthur would hewe been dashed to pieces against Ale post et the Castle Tern Isst year, which ("myself wimemed. As it was, he was Ff. much injured as not to he able to ride fee Me Thom., llilisstyn (his first master) for the rest elf the week. This horn has beets eased. but is stilt a very bait one ; it is tollie left bred, very near home, end just *here the strong , st run• using is mode. Some years ago I witnessed such an arcident at this turn as will never be witnessed again, by which a most valuable colt lost his life, and a Captain ofdraeoons had such an escape fur his, that seldom falls to the lot of any mail. There is something sympathetic, as well as marvel. loin. in the circumstance's attending it. A colt called Nair-beessdfk, by Escape,' the property of Mr. !Ackley, was *jutting his race cleverly, but in coming around thin Cas tleeurie, he bolted—jumped over the curds—and knocked dowe Captain (now Sir John) !Riller,df the Cornwall feneible cavalry, then quartered at Chester, who was tidier on the course in his uniform, aud, strange to say, the peak of his helmet. whilst on his head, catered the twain of flair•brenrlth, by Escape, and killed him on the epol—wh.lst the only h t . jury the Captain received, was spate 'ef black eyes, and I • eaw him at the bell in the evening. Noir.breadils was a very promising colt, and the late Duke of Leeds haul offered 111.. Leckie,. 400 guineas for him before starting. 4 Another must exi raordiaary circumstance connected with accidents on a race course, took -place at Kn:ghtun, in Rad. norshire. A gentlemen was riding a very hard-pulling horse for the hunters stakes, when one of his brothars went to is particular torn ou the course to see how he got around it, Lein. apprehensive for 'his safety. Just as thehorees were 'seeming up, a drenken fellow rode against hiin, and pushed ' him. horse mid all, into the course, exactly before his too. they, who tembledhins ovesond all were down together. An. 'other brother who was en the -coarse, and witnessed the ac. cident, set spurs to his horse to get to their assistance, when he ran away with him, in the exact direction where his other two brothers lay, and tumbled over them, making three men aril three horses ■ll down at the same time ; and the only bail consequences were, a few bruins, and one of the bursts dislocating his shoulder. "Due of the moat distressing accidents I ever witnessed on a race-course was the year before last, at Cie Denham, as it was occasioned by, apparently, wilful neglect of one of the rourse-keeper. As the horses were coming in, a mate of Mr. R. Joaes's sweetest, snit before she had passed the rope the fellow putted it up, sod gave her a tremendous fall. The boy who rode her pitched us his head, and his life was de xpaired of for several days, nor will he ever recover it. This is one of the many instances of the necessity of employing Fenton.. fa all situations about a rate course, who know something about racing, as, its that case, they would always look out for s horse that was shot out, or beaten a lung way from home; end there are always such mesons to be Num,. ltreideets of this nature trail materistly to damp the pleasure of a meeting; and human life should not be put to the risk when it Call be avoided. No comae that I was ever on is so wall kept as Manchester. I have ridden over it ■monigst a udred thousand spectators, and nothing can he better than the clear way for the race buries and the good humour of the people. To return, however, to pour Dunn. William Dunn lived with Lord Grosvenor previous In his hieing engaged by Mr. Manton, in whose service he suc ceeded Merin Junes, the summer before last, as trainer and rider, at a salary of 20111. per annum. His stables were at Delamere Forest, iit Cheshire, and Isis training ground abort In good as that country affords. As Mr. Minton Lad gene rally ten or twelve horses in his hand., Dunn would, no doubt, have soon been enabled to make a provision for his family; and it is melancholy to think of the sad loss they hare anotained. le Mr. Slyttoo, however, they will fiud a good friend and benefactor. ” Dunn will be a great loss to his mister. Ile was a good judge of his busbies., and seemed to have his employer's tot lat heart. He had another good quality—he was not apt to he too fund of his horse.. They were not all :rod rues. as some of his profession snake them app. ar to be be fore they meet with better. Dunn was a rider of the bin eta... His nerve was very gond in a crowd, and he was particularly clever at a start. Although Dunn was a flue horseman, he bad a curious and rather unsightly way of bottling his rein, which was.—over.handed. He also sat very back on Isis horse, aid had a long pull at his bridle. Never. he had, altogether, a vrry jockey-like appearance. Ills race, however, is run, and I have reason to believe that hie los. will be much felt by his master. Let, then, the depth of William Donn be borne in mind by all who have the management of race coiner', and let it inflate them to tate all possible care to preserre the lire: of Mose who risk them for our pleasure aid our profit."

A TALE OF MYSTERY, FOUNDED ON THE ilost RESPECTABLE AUTHORITY, As uecurrmsemtook place at Low Harrogate, on Tuesday last, with which there ■re CittlflPett d sit mach of the mar • nod so remaikrible a coiumdence of circumstance% that we think there ■re many whom the detail of it may ammo), without any Injury to prrional judgment or private feeling. Ili Teesilay last, three most respectable genttemsa, resi dent at Low-Harrogate as visitor% agreed to take • walk together about seven o'clock is the evening. They are ',twit the middle age, and are married slid intelligent men, not likely to be &Trim d, one of t hem being • Clergyman of the Church of Eug'snil.—The weather was extremely warm, and they repair. into • swill wood, on the side of the hill, called The King's WllOll, sear Si. Magnu■'s Well. They were women's; Moue enjoying the coolness of the shade, ■ad the huituurable and improving pleasures of metal iutereourtie. At length they arttvrd neerly at the end of the wood, out far from the said wi 11. The scenery im proved before them, and it was comditersbly heiebleued in 'merest by the coitus of a collage, the former inbabits•ls of which have passed away with the Well of other times. A train of useful rellectious was excited by the solemn scene, and as each surveyed the moult:ming shine, the moss grown wall, and the ►uxuriant ivy, they easily recognized the place Where once the garile• moird, And still white many • rinks' flower grows wild." —The birds were singing their evening song, sod the mar. mitring of • small rivulet beyond the turn, m■de the seen. ■till more interesting. Al this moment; one of the gentlemen suddenly beheld • female figure, at the distance of about sixty yards from him, Rail he instantly directed the attention of his two friends limas& the object. They, however, could nut see •ny thing of the kind, and the figure seemed to ►int to move rapidly towards the edge of the wood. Struck with surprise he hastened after it ; but hie surprise was soon mingled • ills setunisloostot and awe—the Roue vanished from hie sight, like a vision, and was seen no more. His friends followed him; sad they •ll resolved to see if the supposed woman could have passrd out of the wood, by any tapering i■ the fence. The result of their search gave a negative to the suppositiort—for the fence near which she va nished was out only complete, hut the rivulet, which is Iwo yards broad, was found to run close by It on the outside of the wood. They now rent ned to their lodgings, eosin; en the past, but still unwilling to draw superstitious conclusiouv, and equally was told to the company at the house where they were re siding; •std the writer heard the detail from one of the party, in the presence! of the clergysima, who also was with them. Su far, tire above may have only the appearance of one of those stories, into which the Npvtlist finds it requisite to in troduce • ruin, a rivulet, the stillness of reeoing, a ghost, sad • lady. put we have something more to add, without which, we would not have given place to this tale of *mystery —this ■ppareut di lusiun of the human visit)... The day after this shatter oecurteoce, the gentleman who sow that which his companions could not see, rece.veti the mournful informaticsn that a lady, n near relative of his, had mid& nly departed this life the previous terming, about the very hour when he was walking in tge wood. Here we leave the subject. The parties are all known to us, and to mane of our readers ; but to divulge their lawns would be uneceteroos and useless. The remarkable coiuci deuce of circumstances renders the nareallte eoleret•thic ; sad, the mystery which envelopes it, may call forth the solemn refieettons of the serious. or the fanciful speculation of the gayer multilude.—(Eork Herald.) i i r 4 ~~ '' k~ 117:;.1 THE ABIPONES. The following account of the rites which seems,. patsy the death of mos A lotion, is taken from Martin llehrighoffer's account of this equestrian people of Paraguay :. " Death is dreadful to most mortals, hut particularly so to the Abipooses. They rennet even bear the sight of a dying person He•ce, whenever any one's life is despaired of, his felbw inmates immediately forsake the bowie, or are driven away by the old women who remain to take care of the sick, lest they shou!d be so affected by the mournful spectacle, that fiat of death should make them shrink from endangering their lives in baffle. They are, therefor,, obliged to p•m many nights its another person's tent, or iu the open air. As they have very little experience of permits dying a natural death, they du not know the signs of It when it draws near. A short •bstioence from food, unusual silence, or s'eeplessnees, makes Owen presage appraach'oe dimolotion. As won as a report is epread that a man is dying, the old women. who ate either related to the person, or tamed fur medical skill, flock to his house. They stand in • row round the sick man's bed, with dishevelled hair assd bare shoulders, striking • gourd, the mournful sound of which they accom pasty with violent motion of the feet and arms, and lewd vociferatious. She who excels the rest iu age, or fame for medical skill, steeds nearest to the dying mass's head, and 'alike* an immense military drum, *lnch returns a horrible bellowing. Another, who is .appointed to watch the sick man, removes every now sod thew the bull's hide with which he es covered, examines his face, sad if he MISS yet to breathe, spriokles him plentifully with cold water, a jug of which is placed under the bed. When I first witnessed these things l pitied the (ate of the sick man, who, I feared, would be killed, if nut by the disease, at any rate by the howling of the women sal the noise of the drum, •r else smothered by the weight of the bide, unit which the whole body is covered, and which is as bard and as heavy •a • board. Under the pretext of compsmion they use all this cruelty to the departing soul, that the women may be spared the sight of his 1401 agonies, amt the hearing of his groans. " lithe respiration of the,dying man be not heard at a dis. Lance like • pair of bellows in Vulcan's wurkshop, mil if his breath atop even for • moment, they proclaim with • etre. torten voice. that he b•e given up the ghost. A peat crowd assembles oar all 'ides, exclaiming, he is dead, he is no more. All the married women and widows of the town crowd to the mourning, attired as I have described bebop, and whilst they are filling the streets with confused waili•gs, with the rattliug el gourds and beating of pans covered with stags s►ins, • sudden shout is often beard •enoreeiag that the anti whom they mourn for as dead is collie to life seam. The joyous exclamation, lie is revived, is instantly substi tuted for the mournful hoe bug of the women, some of whom return home, whilst others batten to the miserable into 131 on the confiues of life and death, and torment him with their dreadful yellines, till at last they deprive him of life. Afier his death, the first business of - the bystanders is to pull out the heart stud tongue of the deceased, boil them, :mil give them to a dug to devour, that the author of his Math may soon die also. The cin pee, while yet warm, is clothed sc. cording to the fashion of the country, wrapped in a hide, mid butted with leathern thong., the head being covered with a cloth, or any garment at hoed. The savage Abiptmee will not endure the busty of • dead man to remain king in the house; while yst warm, it is conveyed on ready horses to the rive. Women are appoiated to go forward urn swift steeds, to dig the grave, sod honour the funeral with lamen tations. I'i hat, if we my that many of the Abipones are buried because they are thought dead, but that in reality !hey (lie, because lb( y are buried? It is not unlikely that the.e poor wretches are suffocated, either by the hide with wind) they are bound, or by the earth which is Leaped over them. But as they pull out the heart and tongue of the deceased, it Cannot be doubted that they are dead when testy are buried;, though I strongly suspect that the heart is •tames cut out when they are half alive, and would primps revive were they not prematurely deprited of this necessary instrument of life. The savaties, who hasten the burying of thrie dead so much, presume to censure us for keephig the Christian In. diem out of their g masy hours after their decease."

STOCKTON-UPON-TEE . ; —(No. 814.) A Petition of the Merchants and British Coro Dealer* en. pryer I in the Trade of the Port of Stockton. pon Tees, was presented and read, setting forth, That the Petitioners beg leave most humbly and respectfully to sddreaa the House, and to represent to them the injustice they, ad dealers in British pare, must sustain if the Wine', in progress throu2h the House should pass into a law, as it will deprive the Pe. Wieners of t►e advantage they otherwise should gain by the protection they erojoy under the present corn lows,whlch du not allow of foreign grain now ender luck from being sold till the average prier of British corn shall on se are rage debt weeks trieetheramount to 80s. per quarter; but, were it for the pit. vantage of the British agriculturists that this change in the roes laws should be made, tie Petitioners would most cheer fully waive all eimaideratioas et their owe interest for the getter■' good of the nation at large, but being folly con vinced, from their knowledge of the Citfil trade, that the pro. posed Bill will put the British aviculturists into a tee fuld worms situation than they ever can be under the pre sent curs laws, and they humbly conceive if the House taw the subject in the ram.• point of view which their experience has taught tbrm, they would not adopt measure* to render the present distress tenfold greater than it is to the agrieoltui i.e., and they therefore beg leave to mike the following comnieniestion, that the House may see the avoidable injury that will Caine ; the Petitioners are con vinced from information that foreign grain, of eqnal quality to British grain, ran be imported soil put in warehousrs here fur less then half whet it eas be grown fur In Britain, owing to the price of labour being here so much higher, and the lahomers enjoying so many more ciiinfoits than on the Continent of Bloom., and as the maolefaetoriug labourers ultimo one-lb:eel more wages, on an average, that, what the agricultural do in this country, agricultural labour cannot be had for less than it now is, and the unavuid able consequence must be, that lands now ender cultivation will be laid to grass, while the pressure of the agricultural labourers on the mieufaeluring class will tend to in the diet of all classes; whereas, would the House put a sufficient protecting duty on the foreign productions (ne. its of life) imported here, the country would sums recover from the present ■/paralleled distress, mod all classes of society would feel the beuellt thereof, but those who look for their gains from the importation of foreign articles; and the Petitioners beg lease to state to the House, that they are fully cunvineed, from their experience la the eons trade, that a less protecting duty than thirty-two shillings per quarter on foreign wheat, payable on importation, will Nut be adequate thereto, and other grain to a like proportion to wheat ; if die House require further proof thereof ; the Petitioners beg their attention to the curiae. ' queners that ensued foots allowing butter and cheese to be imported at low ditties, and whirl, articles mast still coml. sue to get lower in value, till sufficient protecting duties are laid uo ; as there are no duties payable on grain at present, if the amount that such duties would come to, on an average of years to come, were taken off the ditties on the necessaries of life, 'smell as salt, soap, and rmodlis, it o ould make no differ enee whatever to the consumers of grain, whilst it would agate restore theagricultnral community to their former state iu ao• eiely, awl all others dependant on them; the Petitioners by no mesas wish this protection°. wheat, at a duly of32s. per quar ter, to be continued, should the price 'overstrain exceed 80s. per quarter for six weeks together, and were there a provision made by law to empower the Executive Government to di miuish or take off altogether the protecting duty, whenever the averages, as taken at present, exceed SO.. per quarter, the agriculturists would be in no better situatiun than they are by our present Jews, while foreign grain would ahem be admissible at all timer, with the duty as proposed, but having the duty to pay it would only come when it was needed, tend would neither engross the rapital one depress the market by lying in laud, as at present; the Petitioners beg leave fur ther to st•te; that it was the conviction they felt, that the country was capable of priodueing a nitwit greater proportion of grain and other necessaries of life than it ever has dune, ■rid that it was never likely again to rise to 80,. per quartet, and other grain An proportion, •if the averages were only fairly taken, so Ili to open poets for foreign grain• that in duced the Petitioners to conduce dealers in home grain, ur otherwise they had the issue temptation held sit to thews obit those bad who engaged in it, having had foreign grain offered to them warehoused in England at less than half what it was then worth, if nut nailer luck, at differeut times since the harvest of 1819, sod that it rose to more thou half the logic. of British grain (its quality considered) saving in unsettled weather iu the harvests of 1820 atiol 1821 ; the best qualities of forest - pi grain would even now sell at an advance of 325. per quieter were they not unary lock ; the Petilisuers by no means sigh to put the los'ilers of fie eign grain ins worse situation that, they arc at present, and have no ohj. (-tient that the Legislature should exited to them a greater pi mection (+both as additional duty of ha. per quarter would be, on grain hereafter to be im ported), but should the measures now in progress 111/0111/11 the House pats hue a law, they think it their duty to state, that it will uo longer be fur their ioteresi coutiuue dealers iu home grain, but he come dealers in to. reign grain, which sill be then much mare to their ad vantage, unless grain of British growth fall much below the present prices, and which they are will convinced already are at less than one-fourth of what it can be growl' fur in England, and that the posers of grain in that quarter will be left without buyers for exportation to Loudon, whither the greater bulk of that grown there his even hitherto been sent either in grail, or flour, fur they can buy grain on the Continent and have it sent to London fur very little more than it costs them sending from that port, and the same observations Jo extend to moat other exporting districts ; as these facts are so very dill - richt from what they have been represented to the House, the Pelllll , lolo mitt, tit the House to pause and not to alter the present corn lass till they see the propriety of gnarling 'efficient protecting duties. finch as they have pointed out, and of the truth of which they are very certain from their experience in the trade, and have therefore thought it their duly to represent to the House, before measures are adopted which will involve this country in utter ruin, to benefit a few holders and dealers in foreigu graiu to the 1040 of every ether class iu the commu nity.
