Great Yarmouth—Thomas Pitt, jun., Esq. Company's Temporary Offices, 82, Cornhill. The present Company has been formed for the purpose of esta blishing Docks at the harbour of Wyre, which is situate about 32 miles north of Liverpool, on the Lancashire coast, and its prospects are based on the following incontrovertible facts. 1. That the harbour of Wyre is safe, easy of access, within corn. modious, and perfectly sheltered from . every wind, and possessing the facilities of ingress and exit, with a sufficient depth of water for ships of the largest tonnage. 2. The Harbour dueS being almost nominal, the advantages pre sented to foreign vessels in this respect, as also the reduced charge for pilotage and insurance, are, it is presumed, sufficiently obvious to secure its recommendation in preference to other harbours upon this coast. 3. The ready access to Manchester, Bolton, Blackburn, Wigan, Preston, and the other manufacturing districts of Lancashire, now improving by the construction of intermediate railways, one t 2 Preston having been commenced, and others being in rapid pro gress or in contemplation. 4. The locality and soil are peculiarly adapted by nature for the construction of docks, and the present undertaking will be completed at a much smaller outlay than any other work of a similar descrip tion, the land being obtained upon the most advantageous terms, and the greater portion of the usually heavy expenses attending ex cavation in this instance being altogether avoided. In confirmation of the facilities of this harbour, the following ex tract from the report of Captain Belcher, who had been sent down by the Lords of the Admiralty to survey and report upon it, and which survey was completed in October last, is inserted. - Captain Belcher, after recommending two or three trivial alterations in the Channel, and which the Harbour Company are now carrying into execution, states :—" Wyre would then offer one fair long leading mark from sea entirely independent of buoys, be totally indepen dent of pilots, and a moderate proportion of intelligence would only be required from the masters of vessels seeking shelter therein. The fair 10 feet channel (meaning at the very lowest low water spring tides) being once established, and the traffic ascertained, it will then be time to consider whether the prospects of increasing trade and resulting revenue will warrant the further deepening to 18 feet, which I am satisfied could easily be effected by the steam dredge, a machine almost indispensable to the maintenance of our harbours ;"—and his report is equally favourable as to its' being readily made a harbour of refuge. The site of the proposed docks will be immediately adjoining the the terminus of the railway, and goods brought by ships may be lifted out of their holds and placed on the railway train without the expense of carting any other labour, or advantage which no other commercial port Enjoys ; and the construction or the docks will - be such as a afford every requisite accommodation for the largest ships employed in foreign trade, as also for the warehousing and bonding of goods, merchancise, timber, deals, Fec. The rapidly increasing commerce of Liverpool most fully justifies the establishment of another seaport on the same coast, affording the accommodation of docks ; for the great influx of shipping during these last few years into Liverpool has increased the ton nage of ships engaged in the foreign trade to such an extent that while during the last year Liverpool has an entry of nearly 800,000 tons, London has only about 900,000 tons ; and the same rapid in crease has taken place in the coasting trade—that of London being 1,147,452 tons, exclusive of colliers, and at Liverpool 1,141,740 tons during the same period.. The extent of the present traffic in this district (without enter ing into any details) may be readily conceived when we find that in Preston alone there are from 50,000 to 60,000 spindles at work, and that that town, with the surrounding neighbourhood, contains a po pulation of 360,000, according to the census of 1831, which must have greatly increased since that time, as it appears that in Preston alone there ....ere, in 1835 and 1836rabout 14 new factories, and 1,600 new houses built, and building is still going on to a great extent. In order to give some idea of the probable and early returns of thi' undertaking, it would appear that even supposing that only 50,000 tons were cleared at th ese d oc k s d ur i ng t h e year , t h e amount of dock dues on such tonnage, at an average charge of only 9d. per ton (i. e. varying between 3d. and Is. 3d.) npon ships, and 2s. per ton (i.e. varying between ls. and 35.) upon merchandise, being at the rate of one-half of the charges at other leading ports, and calculating that only one-fourth of such tonnage should be shipped outwards, the dockage would altogether amount to 8,1251. per annum. To these must be added the important returns for warehousing, which, calculating that only one-twentieth part of the goods imported should be warehoused, would at the low charge of 9d. per ton per week, amount to the sum of 4,8751. per annum; also rental for ships, luggage, boxes, parcels, &c., which may be safely estimated, at a low calculation, at 2,0001. per annum. The total returns, therefore, would stand thus, viz. : Dock dues on 50,000 tons of shipping, at 9d. per ton ... £1,875 0 0 Ditto on ditto of merchandise, at 2s. ditto ... 5,000 0 0 Ditto on 12,500 tons of do., at do., exported 1,250 0 0 Warehousing of 2,500 tons of ditto, at 9d. per week .. 4,875 0 0 Rental of ships' luggage, &c., about Gross-Returns 15,000 0 0 Deduct wear and tear, management, &c. 5,000 0 0 Net profit ... lO,OOO 0 0 It will not be unimportant, however, to state, that the Docks proposed will be capable of clearing and managinglso,ooo tons per annum, which, according to the low average estimate before adopted for the 50,000 tons, would return 45,000 per annum. It is intended that the instalments, as they shall be respectively paid, shall bear interest at the rate of four per cent. per annum, payable half-yearly. Half the capital required has been already subscribed for by the Directors and their friends. Observation having been made upon the smallness of the esti mate, the Directors deem it may be satisfactory to state publicly, that upon a careful consideration of the same, they are quite confi dent that the estimated sum will be fully adequate for the comple tion of the works. Applications for shares must be directed, post paid, to the Secre tary, or to either of the agents ; and the Directors will proceed, from time to time, to appropriate the remaining 1,000 shares. as they may deem expedient.

The Proprietors of this Journal, without resorting to the usual plan of boasting as to the number circulated, which is invariably a deception, are content to solicit Advertisements upon the credit of its name and connections alone. That it is in general circulation among a very large, influential and wealthy class, which at this period are ac ti ve l y engage d i n promoting Floriculture and Horticult ure th roug h ou t th e U n i te d ingdom, as well as the middle and humbler classes, who arAul tivators, is a fact of which any person can, in an hour's inquiry, satisfy himself ; and if it be an object to advertise among the No bility and Gentry of all parties, as well as the thinking and careful portion of the humbler classes engaged in horticultural pursuits, " The Gardener's Gazette" is unquestionably the only single Journal which offers this advantage. Without dictating as to the kind of Advertisement adapted for the Journal, or rather for which the Journal is adapted, the Pro prietors suggest that Booksellers, Auctioneers, Estate Agents, Manufacturers o f H ort i cu l tural, Agricultural, and Gardening Im plements and Apparatus, Nurserymen, Florists, Seedsincn Land scape and other Gardeners, S ervants i n want of places, and Masters in want of Servants, Seedsrnen, Fruiterers, Importers of Foreign Produce, &c., will find it a much more eligible and effective me dium than any , existing Newspaper. By giving timely notice, any Advertiser of a Catalogue of Books, or Plants, or Flowers, or any Auction Catalogue, may engage a sufficient portion of the Paper, to the exclusion of any other Ad vertisement of the same class or kind, and be accommodated with any number of the papers (at the cost price), which they may thus send (post free) to all parts of the United Kingdom, and the British Colonies.

The indictment further charged the def en d an t s w i t h conspiring t o d e f rau d t h e l ate Mr. Day, the blacking-manu facturer. In this case, which was not concluded yesterday when we went to press, the jury found a verdict of Guilty. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE WESTERN CIRCUIT--11 r onwzsriR, Flip. 27. This circuit was commenced etf Saturday' last, when the commission was opened by Mr. Baron, Gurney and Mr. Jus tice Williams. The business of the assizes is not heavier than is usual at this period of the year : there are the names of 85 prisoners in the calendar, but with the exception of two or three cases, one of which is an indictment against four indi viduals for a rape upon the same woman, there is nothing of a very heavy nature. Yesterday their Lordships attended divine service at the cathedral. This morning Mr. Baron Gurney presided in the Nisi Prius Court, and Mr. Justice Williams in the Crown Court. THE x.rNo V. TILE REV. SIR H. RIVERS, BART. This was an indictment, charging the defendant with having assaulted George Mitchell, by beating and "kicking him. George Mitchell, a boy only twelve years of age, in company with three or four other little boys younger than himself, went to bathe at a place called the Ten-hatches, in the river Itchen, near Winchester, and at a distance of eighty-five yards from a .public footpath. The defendant was fishing at some distance up the river, but standing on the opposite side to that on which the boys were. He shortly came nearer to them, awl held up his fist at them, which frightened them, and they took up their clothes and ran away towards a bridge, and in doing. so went somewhere near to where a daughter of the defendant's was standing. The boy Mitchell crossed the bridge, when the defendant got over some hedges and ran and struck him a blow with his fist, which knocked him down, and when on the ground he kicked him. The boy was unable to rise, but was lifted up and carried to a house near the spot. The father of the boy was sent for, and he went to the de fendant, who was still fishing, and said, " Sir Henry, I . beg your pardon. Did my boy offend you in any way ?" The de fendant asked him who he was. The man replied, "My name is Mitchell, and that's my boy that you treated so bru. tally." The defendant called him a fool, and said if he found the boy there again he would serve him worse. The boy did not go to school for two months afterwards. The Jury found a verdict of Guilty, and the defendant was sentenced to pay a fine to the King of 101., and to be impri soned till the fine was paid. -- - FROM LAST NIGHTS GAZETTE.

A Committee of the Lords of his Majesty's most Honourable Privi Council assembled yesterday at the Council-office, to consider various petitions praying- charters of i ncorporation. The Lord President, Lord Privy Seal, and the PresLient of the Board of Ti'ade, were present. A Deputation, including Mr. William Asßeekett, Chair man, Messrs. Pitt, Ewen, Stuart, Walker, Daniel, York, Abbott, Carrell, Tapster, Israel, Roberts, 13rnwn, and Rua_ sell, and Mr. William Linsell, secretary, had an interview yesterday with the Chancellor of the Exchequer, in Downing_ street, on the subject of the window tax. Sir Alexander Johnston and Mr. llartopp had interviews with Viscount Melbourne yesterday, in Downing -street. ' The Belgian, Grecian, and Spanish Ministers, transacted business yesterday, at the Foreign-otiice. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. ST. ALBAN'S STEEPLE CHASE. An immense concourse of visitors of every grade assembled yesterday at St. Alban's, to witness the most interesting Stee ple Chase decided there since Moonraker's year ; the prize contended for was a handsome gold cup, presented by his High ness Prince Nicholas Estcrhazy, added to a sweepstakes.of 15 seers. each (and five more for post entering), under the fol lowing conditions: —Ea c h to . .carry I2st. over three miles (more or less), a winner of two steeple chases to carry 71b. extra, the second to save his stake ; gentlemen riders ; not to ride more than 00 yards, &c. The following is a list of' the horses that started, and their riders Captain Gardner's Conrad Mr. J. M.

Mr. Lamb:lea's Jerry (post entered) Mr. Weston. The line selected was about three miles ana a half in length, and was admirably chosed for the spectators, It included be tween thirty and forty fences of a fair hunting description, and was almost entirely light ploughed land. It commenced in a field near Barnet Heath, close to St. Alban's, crossed the Harpenden road, and finished within a half mile run in over turf over Harpenden Common. The betting at starting was 3 to 1 agst Conrad (taken), 7 to 2 agst Spicey (taken), 6 to 1 agst Jerry, 7 to 1 agst Ploy Blue, 9 to 1 apt Splendour, arid 12 to 1 agst Speculation. Cinderella took the lead at a capital pace, followed by Specu lation, The Fly er , B oy Blue, Pilot, Splendour, Predictor, Spicey, Conrad, 'Jerry, and Beanstalk, the others lying bandy. In this order the horses went to the Harpenden road (about half way), having all taken their fences without mishap. here, however, two or three of them lost ground, Spice) and Conrad having refused the fence out of it, Boy Blue being crossed two or three times by other horses, and Beanstalk got hung in a fence. Cinderella continued the lead, still waited upon by Speculation, Splendour, and Pilot, Spicey having taken rather a more forward position. A field or two before they got to the common, Speculation went up to the mare, and they took the remaining fences almost abreast, the mare being first on the common. Splendour took a gate to the left of these two, cleared it, and thus saved a fence. Pilot followed, but fell, and shook his rider terribly. The racing between Cinderella and Speculation wal very close until within a quarter of a mile of home, where Splendour caught them, ran a few yards along side, and went a trifle ahead. Spicey was now creeping up nn the upper side; these four altogether making a remarkably fine race home. Splendour won by about a length, and the umpire (Delme Radelitils Esq. ) placed Spicey second, but both the riders on Cinderella and Speculation claim the same place; and it appeared to us, as well as to many others, that one of them was entitled to it. Spicey, however, ran wide of them, and this will perhaps account fur the difference of opinion be tween-the umpire and the spectators. Coxswain, Predictor, Pilot, Jerry, and The Flyer, were behind, but malt ng was near the first four, most of the riders having pulled up on finding thcir.chances out. The Flyer, we believe, fell once : this and The Pilot's being the only incidents of She kind that occurred. After the race Mr. Becher claimed the race, on the ground that Splendour had gone on the wrong side of a flag s but failed in substantiatiag his 'complaint. Amongst many other distin guished persons present were Prince Nicholas Esterhazy, r. ho was accompanied by Count \Valdsteine, Baron Leibzeltern, and Lord Claude Hamilton. The Prince, who was splendidly mounted, took all the fences in the line except one; and cleared them quite in the Melton style ; Lord Hamilton, on a thorough bred mare, distinguished himself at three severe leaps ; but the Count, on trying his hand, met wah a complete summerset, not a little to the amusement of his friends. The day was de lightfully fine, and the sport equal, if nat superior, to anything of the kind ever seen at St. Atban's. The race was run a few , minutes to 3 o'clock, and was considered to be remarkably fast. BURY-LANE .TIIEATIt Barnett's new opera of Fair Rosamond was performed last night to an over fluwinn house; It was not over until half-past eleven, an un precedented circumstance in the history of such productions. Of Mr. Barnett's music we can only speak generally, and with the greatest approbation. - From the overture down to the last chorus it was characterised throughout with the most sterling qualities of •stjle. In point of subject and freshness of thought it improved as it went on, the second, third, and part of the fou,th -acts being the elite of the whole. In every part it was dramatic,4tnd sustained with the richest and most mas terly orchestral score. Miss Romer sustained the part of Rosamond effectively, and Miss Betts was better than we an ticipated in the Queen. Phillips was never better suited than in King Henry ; and, although he was not in very good voice at the commencement of the evening, yet he went through his. duty with success. Miss Poole deserves every applause for the correct manner in which she both acted and sung in the page Hubert. Giubilei, Wilson, and Seguin, supported the parts of Clifford, De Vere, and Vaughan, the King's favou- • rite ; but they were chiefly useful in the concerted pieces of the opera. We should not omit to notice an excellent madri gal introduced into the last act. The management of the house deserves every credit for the style in which the piece has been got up : no expense or care seems to have been spared on it. The opera is most successful, and will have a run but need we say that it must be compressed unsparingly ? FLITTINGS OF FANCY.—" Here are two very agreeable volumes of tales and sketches, by Robert Sulivan, Esq. This gentleman has a fertile imagination, dud a great general knowledge of character. Ile steers from grave to gay with great skill, and the volumes before us are full of variety and are highly entertaining. Mr. Sulivan shines most brilliantly in his humorous moods. As a proof of this, we may instance his opening tale, Teresina,' which, • too, has some beautiful touches of nature. Our author's dra- ; matic sketches evince* much talent, and we, must not forget to , observe that in the cou rse o f the volumes there are many clever satirical sketches of fashionable follies, and scenes and characters in almost every grade of life."—Dispatch. The dinner patties of the Earl of Sefton will shortly be resumed. The Abbotsford Club, perhaps the most active and enterprising of any of the existing literary societies, and which since its formation, in honour of Sir Walter Scott (if anything can be said to be in honour of such a man), has printed so many valuable works, has just put forth a very interesting volume connected with Scottish history. We allude to the " Memoirs of the Reign of Mary Queen of Scots," by the eighth Lord Berries, who derived most of the materials from his family records, the fifth, sixth, and seventh Lords, bat especially the fifth, being so intimately connected with the events of the earlier portion of the work. The Club is in debted for - this contribution to R. Pitcairn, Esq. In general we Are opposed to these exclusive Associations, and think that. like the Surtees Club, it would be better to make the books saleable • but as the Abb o t s f or d Cl u b prints only from manu scripts, the members have an excuse for being chary of their productions, and however novel may be the subject, we knolw from experience that the public at large care little for matters intrinsically of great importance, especially to literary • anti quaries. The original M. S. of Lord Herries's tt Memoirs," in his own handwriting, was destroyed with the Scotch College at Douay, during the French revolution. Mr. Pitcairn's hand.. sonic contribution is from a transcript, probably unique. Mr. Dawson, M.P. for Derby having declined to come forward again as a candidate for the representati on o f Derby, Mr. Duckworth, the Chancery Barrister, h a i con _ sented to come forward on the Reform interest at the next election.. The Newcastle testimonial to Earl Grey will be ino mediately The splendid column will be erected at the end of Grep:street, in Mr. Grainger's new town, the completion or which will be effected early in the ensuing summer. The model of the statue to be placed on tbo • top .of the column by Mr.• Bailey has been exhibited, and is , pronouoced to be an admirable resemblance.— Tyne Mercury. -Monday se'nnicrht. 9 died at Walton ; near Wis— bech, aged 75.
