" GENTLEMES—We are this day assembled for a very so lemn purpose—for . the purpose of laying the foundation stone of an edifice, to be dedicated to the service and worship of that Almighty Being, the Giver of all good, who disposes of events and governs flaunty. A solemnity of this kind ought to in spire our minds with feelings of a very serious, but at the same time of a very grateful nature. It is indeed almost impossible for any person who entertains a proper reverence for religion, not to feel serious, and even devout thoughts, arise in his mind, in. contemplating the service in which we are at this moment engaged ; lnit it would likewise be - becom. ing in its to feel' the utmost degree of 'gratitude to Providence for the manifold. blessings, both spiritual and . temporal, which, es a favoured people; we hare long enjoyed, and which I trust, under Divine Providenee t will be transmitted to our latest posterity.' The increased 'populaticin Oftdinburgh, since St. George's 'Church was ereeted, - having rendered it in-. dispe - nsably necessary for the Magistrates and Council to take measures for building an additional church, for the comfort and accomModation of the inhabitants of this part of the town, cannot but consider it as a most auspicious circumstance, that the foundation stone of Bellevue Church was.laid on this tlay, the anniversary of our most gracious Sovereign's first public entrance into our city, a day which may ever be con sidered a proud one for all the inhabitants of Edinburgh, and which can never fail to bring with it very had recollections 'to every member of the corporation, who had so great a share in the interesting scenes ;which passed at that eventful period. It must be a source of great satisfaction to us all to know, that the loyalty and attachment to his. sacred person, displayed by all ranks and classes of men, has been very gratifying to his Majesty's feelings, and that he still continues .to express the unabated pleaatires he experienced from his visit to this part of his dominions. " Twelve years' have now elapsed ainee the foundation-stone of St. George's Church was laid, and how grateful ought:we to be to Providence for the Wonderful Improvement which in. the count; of these years had - taken place in the British eniPire in genera!, and of our own metropolis - in, partienlar.' At the time when that stone was laid, we were engaged in a most ardu yds contest, and with an enemy the most able, most fOrmideblei and most Inveterate that was ever oppoled to thi country.: mint all the great poWers of Europe were then prostrate rut the feet of tliat.ektraortlihary man, and although of r oWn sail` had never"been polluted by foieign invasion, atirl n the opinion at mete of otir•despOlidents (and we had trio many such amOhg us), our own oxlstence as free and' independent nation' . was at stake. it Was indeed, true that precisely at that time, the darkness which had so long overspread - Europe, seemed, beginning to dissipate, by the successful commencement of our • Own immortal Wellington's career in- the Peninaula; and which atenearda shone forth in one continued blaze of glory : But bent.ve the most sanguine. mind could liisrdly have anticipated' that in so fey' years after, ywe should have come out of th e c e ll .; test with such signal honour,• and should. have been plaied in the high and commanding situation which we now hold. and Which I mist we shall ever maintain among the nations of Ett rope. With respect to our, Own metropolis, it might he truly caul, and he congratulated his fellow citizens upon; it, that the inere:tsed grandeur of the city, and the yarieata. additional :nom; Modationa which the inhabitants enjoy; were never in so short a space of time equalled by any one city in the British doini. nions, far lest in any other part of the world. The reputation of Edinburgh, is now widely extended, and not . only the inha-; bitunta ofOur sister kingdom, but foreigners of distinction from every part of, the Continent, visit it in great .numbers every year, and I venture to say, none depart from it, without being filled.with admiration at the natural beauties. of its - slttualrin, and the magnificence of its building* We•have this day laid the foundation of a ehurch,,Which, when completed, will prove an additional pleasing f e atur e , a nd b e highly ornamental to this part of the town, the buildings upon winch were so . rapidly increasing. " On the spot where I noW•stand, I trust the pure doefrines of the Christian religion will be taught with fervour, and listen ed to with attention ; and that when we ourselves are no more,- and the present generation shall have passed away , our child rot, and our children's children will reap the benefit Of the pious service in which we have this:day been engaged. Gen- - *lemon, I beg to thank you, and all present, four the attention with which you have been pleased to listen to the words I have had the honour to address to you." _ _ _ This address, which was delivered with his Lordship's usual elegance and correctness, was received with the most profound attention, and produced a great impression. This church, with its spire, will form a stelli big object in the approach from Newhaven, as the new line of road from Claremont Terrace, which is now making, and a great part of which is already retied for buildings of a handsome de. scription, leads directly upon it.—(Etlinburgh Courant, Aug. 18.) CORONERS' INQUESTS. SUDDEN DEATIL—A Coroner's Inquest, which brought about the question, as to the right of surgeons opening the bo dies of persons to particularize the cause of death, was held last night at St. James's Infirmary, Poland-street, Oxford street, on the body of Thomas Morris, aged thirty-nine years. —The deceased had for nineteen years been is serjeant in the 110th regiment of foot, but a few months ago was dis banded on account of an asthmatic complaint. On Wed neltty evening, about five o'clock, he was passing Mr. Egg's, the gun-maker, at the end of Mee:o4lv, and was sud denly observed to &if, when the blood .gushed forth from his mouth in torrents. and life was keting rast„-viken-he was taken up and removed to Mr. Aleock's., a surgeon., haul by, and from thence to this Infirmary. After his dissolution, a desire appear. ed on the part of the surgeon to open the body, litatinehis inabi lity to get at the cause of death otherwise. The beadle conse quently applied to the relatives for that purpose, who were repugnant to the. measure, observing that the appearances, coupled with his dissolution, certainly pourtrayecl that death en sued from a natural cause; the Coroner was of the same opinion, and refused to grant any order for opening the body, and stated. he_believed it was against the wish of Juries in I.teneral, that a bony - should be mutilated, when there was sufficient reasonable appearances to account for the cause of death ; Mr. Lacon, Mr. Alcock's assistant, in his evidence before the Jury, was of opi nion the deceased died from a rupture of a blood vessel. The Jury were unanimous in the same opinion, and returned a vet.. dict—" Naturid Death by the visitation of 'Got)." Sulu IDE.—An Inquest was held yesterday afternoon at the Three Crowns, Caitle.street, Whitechapel, before J. W. the w IN, Esq. Coroner, on the body of John ;41ackenzie aged about 112. W. Rose,' residing next door to the deceased, stated that he was sent for yesterday Morningg , by the deceased's daughter, and on going into the house, saw him hanging from the bed.post by two handkerchiefs ; witness called for a knife which the daughter brought, and she cut him down. Ile could liaVe touched the ground with his toes, but that his legs were bent. He had only his smallclothes, stockings,. and shirt on, and it seemed as if he had got out of bed, while his little son, who had slept with him, was asleep, and committed the act. Witness has perceived a great change in him for the last three weeks.— Thomas Earl saw the deceased on Saturday morning, when he appeared quite desponding. It was witness's opimon that he wits labouring under temporary mental derangement. He had plenty of work, and did not appear to be in distress. .The Jetty, under all the circumstances, without hesitation returned a Ver dict of Ltraaity." Another I nq uest was held yesterday afternoon at the Queen's Head, Lower Read, 'lslington, before Tit ostis ST I LI NO . ,' Esq. on the body of Thomas Evans, aged 38, formerly a Clerk in a Banking House. Verdict--" Found Drowned." Bow-ST RE iT.— Yesterday morning, as soon as Sir. . • thltNIE bad taken his seat on the ben c h, an application was =de to hint by Mr. Robertson, the treasurer of Covent - Garden Theatre, who was attended by a solicitor, for his ass aistance to recover possession °rehouse attached to the Theatre, and belonging to the proprietorS, and which it was stated was now occupied illegally by Mr. James Brandon, the la c te box book and housekeeper of that establishment. The dream stones which gave rise to this. application were as follow: Sean after the closing of the Theatre for the.. present vacation, the managers, Mr: C. Kemple, Captain Forbes, .&c. chose in the exercise of their discretion to make sundry changes, and among the.rest to discharge Mr. Brandon from his !li neation. The latter had been fifty-figs years on the establish ment, and the greater part of, the 111 e held the situation abeve-mentioned, and it was not rrokapi unnatural that he should feel some degree of indignation at such a step. He re monstrated, but this *as of no avail ; and by way of equivalent it was proposed to allow him an annuity of 2001. per annum for life This, however, Mr. Brandon declined to accept, and refined altogether to resign his situaten or to give up the pos session of the house in Pnnee's-place t contiguous to the Theatre, Which lie occupied be virtue or his einploynient. He, per haps, was strengthened in this determination, by his knowledge that 31i. Ilarris, his old master, was decidedly hostile to his dismissal; but that gentleman having disposed of his interest for -eigat years (at the rate of 1,5004 year) to the present ma nagers, could, of course, exercise no authority in the matter. The managers were inflexible, and on Monday last, Mr. Ro bertson, !n the absence of Mr. Brandon, took possession of the house in Prinee's.place, and when the latter returned at night, he was refused admittance, but was at the same time told by 31r. Robertson that every facility would be atforded hint for the removal of his furniture, &e. This produced a reinon etrance of the warmest kind front Mr. Bnindon, but he was eonotelled for the time to submit.. Negociations were set on foot, but unsatisfactory arrangement could be, brought about, anti Mr. Brandon determined upon regaining possession of the house by some means or other. In debating upon the best method of effecting an entrance, it was recollected that there was a communication between the top of 111 r. Robins's -aue, tin-worn in the Piazza, and the parapet of Mr. Brandon's late residence, where there was a trap.cloor, by which ad mission might be easily gained. Accordingly, on Wednesday night Mr2Brancleit's Neither (the late treasurer), Perry, the late fireman of the Theatre, and one or two others of the be sieger's friends, , found then way to the trap-door, about the same time diet 3.1 r. Brandon himself knocked at the front door below The only persons in the house at the time were five carpenters, e employed in making sonic alterations or repairs, anti hearing a knock at the door, they very readily opened it, and admitted Mr. Brandon, who * with the assistance of the party from above, gently ejected the carpenters, and remained all night in undisturbed possession. Application' was made to hint yesterday morning. to yield tip possession of the pre.- ; but this he flatly refused to do • whereupon it wa s de termined to enter by force, and Mr. notertson waited upon Sir R. Birnie, for the purpose of requesting Minn to grant the aid ot'gpme of die police in effecting that object. Sir R. BIRNIt said it was quite impossible that he could grant :city assistance of that kind; a 3lagistrate had no juris dictiolt whatever in a case of' disputed )tosstsion,, and the most that he could do 'WAS, if any information reached. him that a breach of the peace wae likely tatake place, to send officers to present-cr quell it if it had actually commenced. A 110' atone eonvenention, however, Sir IL llinettn said he would' write a note to Alr. Brandon to request his attendance, Cis such a step might, perliape, lead to some arrangement which, he thought, must be.veEy desirable to all parties. In the ab. scree it the messenger with the note fpm the Magistrate, Mr. Roberteoit said ,he belleved.lllr. Braiulan was actin; under the ntiviVe r and : i nfluence of a gentleman in the immediate neigh. beurhoode and it would probably now appear wild that friend :vas. ID a few minutes a verbel message was received I froM 11r. Brinlon. Infonning the Magistrate that he had sent a note to ,31e. Robins in the Piazza, and would soon send a futtlietenntiler; • fn a very short time Mr. Robins himself appenred at the office, and the whole party, mid) Sir R. Birnie, retired to the private room, where, we understand, Alr. Robins (tin; behalf of Mr. Brandon) protested in 'strong terms aseemst h is dismiSsal, which he pronounced to be un closet. With respect to the offer of an annuity, it was a mere nuilitsie for the pt•oposition of tits management was this:—That Air. linindon slioald be allowed 2001. n year for life, but that Mr. tiarris, having seven-twelfth s of the property of t h e theatre, shauti pey a propbetion of 1201. outof the 200/. Mr. Harris, however, said he was averse to the dientisaal of z'slr. Brandon, and as h e had sold his interest in the theatre flat a stipulated sum, it was preposterous to expect him eapay any share of the annuity. In short, he would not pay a farthing. nit. Robins declared he had done 'all in his power to bring Menu an anti cable adjustment of the differences between rite parties; but haul faded. Ile waited Upon 3lr. Vemble and Captain Forbes., to know the reason of Mr. Brandon's disiniasol ; but they re fused to assign any, itlieging that they did not wish Co have it M 2 ` . "n 1) 't If' ch he has ete any thing wrong, fell me so, and 1 ant railenger his friend ; but you are not to discharge a servant of fitlyefive years' standing as you would an actor at a w'eek's nAce, because lie would not perform for you for ninepence a week less than he could get elsewhere." however, they declined giving any reason ; and he (Mr. Robins) had advised 111 r. Brandon to act as lie had done. Sundry propositions were made on . behalf of the management, but were not acceded to, and the parties tinnily left the office without any thing conclusive being done. Mr. Brandon still remained in possession yesterday evening. The matter, of COUISC, here rests for the present.—(mo ess ix Parr.) STE A AI-BOATS. • 11faxstox.flotesi_yeeseestey a deputation. from tha Wa termen'S Company, at the head of which were Mr. Shelton and Arr. Drinkald, the Common Councilmen, waited upon the Iso RD MAY R, to consult with his hardship as to the most efficient mode of suppressing the tumults which arose nniongst watennen on the arrival of the steam-boats. Mr. Shelton stated, that the Company had prepared a set of bye-laws that only waited the approbation of the Court of Al dennen, which would not, however, sit for some time. Theme laws, it was expected, would be sufficient to put an end to the disorders complained of, and in the mean time the . Company wished to suggest the propriety of stationing an officer at the landing-place to prevent note and apprehend the disorderly. Mr. lirinkalci bore testimony to the tlangernus nature of th e practice of a crowd of boats rushing towards the steam-vessels for the pusengers. Soule claps since himself and a party of seven narrowly escaped being sink: It was only yesterday morning that one person's life was placed in imminent clanger. --s There were often nearly 100 boats round the meant-vessel, contending with each other. The proposed bye-laws before the Court of Aldermen contained a new ecitle of fares, which it was highly necessary should be immediately adopted, as the present fares, which had been enactedvany years since, were greatly inquest ecar p a t dx pnr t:e.etinsge as toolow. The fare for eicessin e ` the river was only one penny, and the low scale of the old fares enabled the watennen to exact almost their own price. It woe worthy the attention of the police, that a great number of boats had neither the mance nor the numbers of the owners, who thus seeured theatmelves from the consequences of their misconduct. But until the rthcittiPPnri"e" Court of Aldermen passed the new bye.laws, the evil could not effectually be checked. The LORD MAYOR approved of the plan recommended by c t i h itn e I, ( ,,,er !on ed m . a an hy d o t f it e e tat gr ice e : t n e g st an tu ci ro ffir t e P i le bne l o s ti an ts: d ee. requested Drown see that it wail put in execution. took place, lie Mr. Brown said that the presence of an officer at the stairs or landing place might he effectual in preventing breaches. of the peace on that spqt. t• but round the navel, wher e ei vex were en• that the officer could controul the watennen.

This communication elated, in substance, that one of the reli gious sisters 'of that community, by name Mary Stuart, had been afflicted with sickness for four years and about seven months ; that during that period she hail frequent attacks of paralysis, each of which seemed to threaten her With imme diate dissolution; that the most powerful remedies had been applied, without producing any other than partial and temp o . racy relief ; that for several months past she had been confined to her bed, wholly deprived of the power of assisting herself, or of moving out of the position in which, she was laid ; that when moved by her attendants how gently soever, she not only suffered much pain, but was also liable tei considerable danger, and to the temporary loss of speech, and that for the last five weeks stir lead entirely lost the power of articulation ; that up to' the morning of the Ist instant she continued in this de plorable state, without any symptom of amendment, and apparently beyond the reach of !Annan ; , that on a certain hour that morning, es had been Settled by pre vious arranifement, she united her devotion (as did ale° her numerous friends) with the holy sacrifice of the mass, which was to be offered by Alexander, Prince of liehenlohe, in the. hope of obtaining immediately from God that relief which no human means could afford; that, with this view, she received, though with much difficulty, the divine communion at the mass, which was celebrated at the same hour in her Chamber for her recovery ; that, mass being ended, and no cure as vet effected, she was in the act of resigning hetself, with perfect submiasion, to the Will of God, when instantly she felt 6" power of movement and a capability of speech; that she exclaimed with an animated Yoke,--" holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of. Hosts !" raised herself without asei S tanCea to offer, on vendedkneet, the tribute of her gratitude to Heaven; called for her attire, left that bed to which she had. hem for so many months, as it were, fastened, Walked to the convent chapel with a firm step, and there, in the presence of the coMmUnity and congre gation, joined her religious sisters in the solemn thanksgiving . which was offered upao God,' fur _this wonderful interposition of his goodness. As soon as this statement reached tri. We felt it a sacred duty to examine the ;pounds on which it vas made. We hastened, therefore, to spot, to investigate the circumstaneee of this astonishing cure. We found the late invalid &awed in the parlour, surrounded by her friends e' she nrose, nhe kaelt, she resumed her seat, she detailed the history of her suffrings and her cure, as thief have been just related. Ifer convenient% and intendants, who had assisted her in her infirmity, and watched oat longoier her bed or languishing, confirmed this'aceonnt in all its details, which could not fall, even .then, to produce on our mind the clearest conviction, that the restoration of the said Mary Stuart to the state of health in which we saw her was be yond the reach of human poWer. Still, aware of the great reponsibility which we should incur, by pledging ourselves to you, beloved brethren, and to the World, for the existence of a fact so truly wonderful, we paused before we should give public utterance to our private conviction on so impintant a subject. We returned to the convent, after en interval of several days rare subjected all the circumstancei of this ' extraordinary case to a new and rigid inquiry ; We collected in formation on the spot, from every source within our reach; we. weighed it in the presence of the (Rid of Truth ; we called in to our aid the wisdom and - intelligence of our reverend brethren, the Roman Catholic clergy of this city, and we have the con solation of knowing that our judgment is supported by their unanimous opinion, when we declare, as are do hereby declare, on what appear* to us the most unquestionable evidende, that the cure iiinch was effected in the person of the' said Mary Stuart, on the Ist of August instant, is the effect of a superna;' tural agency-a.an effect which we cannot contemplate without feeling in our inmost soul an irresistible conviction that " this., is the finger of (foil." We do not, however, expect that this new and splendid wonder of the divine goodness, clothed as it is with such a mass of evidence, will awe into silence the cavils of the sceptic. The miracles of our blessed Redeemer himself were contradicted and ""the servant is not greater than hie tord." incredulity may seek to cast the veil of doubt over the glory which redounds to UM and hiS Church, front the exercise of miraculous powers ; but the true believers will find therein a copious subject of tonsolation, a new link m bind him, if possible, more closely to his this attested religionLa a new proof of the ever watchful care of God over new motive to walk with reverence in the awful preeenee of Him who works such wonders in the midst of us—a new incentive to address this gracious Being in every want with unbounded confidence. Perhaps this may be among the means of mercy, whereby God Wishes to effect the gracious purpose mentioned in his Gospel—" Other sheep I have, that are not of this 'fold, them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice, and there shall be made one fohl , and ems shepherd. Perhaps die voice of these facts issuing than the bosom of hIS sane. ttiry, and publishing the glory of God with the loudness of thunder, May strike upon the ears and hearts of many to whom the voice of our miastry could not reach. Who knows how many or our dear brethren, who arc wandering from this " one fold," may be tbus'eOnducted back to venerate that holy mass, on which the hand of the Omnipotent has impressed, in such effulgent characters, the attestation at its sanctity. Peace be to you, brethren, and -charity with faith from God the Father, and oar Lord Jolts Christ.. Amen. M DANIEL !AI lt 11D. &c.. Dublin, lOtitAtigus, TESTIMONIALS. Dublin, August 8 . , MM.
