FROM LAST NIGHT'S GAZETTE. MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT AT WINDSOR, NINE PERSONS DROWNED. On Wednesday evening, as one of the small boats, which ply at and about Windsor for hire, was re turning with the extraordinary number of nineteen persons on board, from Egbam Races to Windsor, a little beyond Datchet Bridge, it struck, through the inadvertence of a little boy, (a youth aged 12 or 13, and son of Cannon, one of the boatmen), who guid ed the helm, on some stakes in the river, at a place where formerly an eel weir existed. The boat shortly after filled with water, and despite of the exertions of the boatmen to get the boat to the shore the stern sunk, and all the passengers in that part, amounting to about eleven or twelve, were sud denly thrown into the water together, and melan choly to relate, not less than nine of them perished. It was about nine o'clock, and the moon shone rather brightly. The following are the names of those who are drowned. 10 DENTISTS AND -7--- OTHERS.—NEW SYSTEII OF 'I 'HE TEETH. qRNTLEMEN desirous ori Practising th e T New Method of p reserving tb.e Teeth and C uring fo trithache,without pain 1 3r eattracti on , are respe c tf u ll y i n fiLEied, th a t th e y may re reive th e necessary instr uc ts I ,qa the inventor JP ons , Mr. J.

CAUTION.—A composition in imitation of th e a b ove powder is sold by a few Druggists, and the deception is immediately detected by the stamp attached to the box, which is only a plain one, whereas the genuine powder has, by favor of his Majesty's Commissioners of Stamps, as a security to the proprietor, the name `• Evan Edwards, 67, St. Paul's," engraved thereon. The Powder is sold in boxes, 2s. 6d. and 4s. 6d. each; the Lotion, 41. 6d, per Bottle. Sold by Sanger, 150, Oxford-street, opposite Bond street ; -tra S .0 ing, Royal Exchange, Gornhill ; and Mr. Edwards, 67, St. Paul's Church-yard, on the foot way. We copied from the London Journals, a few days since, a report of a-very. Novel Christening, that of one of Saintmarc's Patent Stills, which took place at the extensive Rectifying Establish ment of Messrs. Nicholson and Co., in the English Metropolis,—We were, then, aware that the Still alluded to in Ireland was that erected by our respected neighbours—Messrs. Thomas Haughton, and Co.—but, as w e h a d no t ava il e d ourseves of the kind permission of those Gentle men to witness the operation of the apparatus, we did not offer ally observation of our own. We have, lately, had the pleasure of devoting some time to the examination of this ingenious combination of chemical and mechanical know ledge ; and we have also heard the explana tion of one of the Gentlemen interested in the Patents, (who has come from London for the purpose of superintending the erection and first working of the apparatus.) as well as the opinion of a very scientific and expe rienced Gentleman, connected with the Revenue who has been especially appointed by the Com missioners of 'Excise to ekamine, and report to them upon, the operation and properties of the invention. We have, now, no hesitation in expressing our conviction that Messrs. Haughton and Co. will receive the reward which their spirit and en terprise so well deserve, by realising to the fullest extent, in practice, all those great advantages which the Patentees have (in their little publi cation) ably demonstrated in theory. These consist, shortly—with a surprising economy of fuel and labour—in producing, at one operation from the wash, a spirit of greatly superior qua lity, and more in quantity, than can be obtained by any other process of distillation, however often repeated, or ingeniously conducted. The apparatus in question has been ex tensively used in France for the distilla tion of brandy, by the inventor, M. Saint mare, who obtained patents for the United kingdom and Colonies, and subsequently disposed of them to some Gentlemen in London —by one of whom the arrangement of the prin ciple has been much simplified, and adapted to the various modes of Distillation now practised. It is at present used by some of the most consi derable Rectifiers both in London and Liver pool ; but Messrs. Haughton and Co. are the first Distillers in his Majesty's dominions who have applied • this system to the Distillation of Wash. They will, therefore, have the credit of having commenced an entire revolution in that branch of business, and also of effecting•most completely the intentions of the Legislature, hi therto but imperfectly complied with. The latter object has been accomplished by means of a very beautiful and ingenious machine, called " Sharp's Patent Safe,' which Messrs. Haughton and Co. have appended to the worm end of the still—and which, while it protects the revenue and facilitates the objects of the fair and honourable trader, presents an insuperable bar to the practices of the fraudulent—a desideratum for years anxiously desired, hitherto attempted in vain, but now thoroughly realised. The apparatus, as a whole, is in its structure and its management, during work, perfectly unique. Occupying but little space, fed with one third of the fuel necessary for the old process, attended by few hands, and regulated—with the utmost ease—to the proper temperature, as well as to the quality of the spirit that comes over, by him almost solely who takes charge of the " safe"— the machine combines security to the Revenue and to the Proprietor, with the greatest economy to the latter. " Spent wash," upon trials that we have seen, retains not a particle of spirituous impregnation. t is then with no small ploasure indeed that we can thus introduce, to the trade and the public, an apparatus by far more perfect than any for the purpose ever before in use—while we can heartily congratulate with consumers upon the production of a spirit totally free from oleagi nous or empyreumatic ingredients—and with the truly enterprising proprietors upon a source of accu mulating profits from " Captain Rock"—for, so has the machine been denominated. It has al ready, in its operation and details, been in spected by several distillers, and obtained their thorough approbation ; so that it may be con sidered as likely soon to supersede the old method of distillation. There is at present in the possession of JOHN Masi., of Thorne, a poney, standing not more than 14, hands high, which, a short time ago, for a trifling wager, drew, in a cart, from the aide of the Staiaforth and Keadby canal, to the Brewery in Thorne, a distanc e of about a quarter of a mile, 23 sacks of barley, weighing 15 stone 9 pounds the sack, which with the weight of the cart must have been upwards of 2i tons.—Leeds Intelligencer. THE HARVEST.—It is most gratifying to us to be enabled to state, that in consequence of the continu ance of fine weather, the Wheat in this neighbourhood has been (with very little exception) secured. Some Barley and Beans yet remain out. On Sunday, the thanksgiving " for fair weather" was read in the Churches ; seldom, in deed, have we experienced a more " seasonabl e and blessed chang e of weather."— Worcester Journal. TIIE WEATHER.—THE HARVEST.----We are gratified at being able to say that the accounts of the state of the crops in the interior of Ireland, are of the most cheering description. In some places partial injury has occurred, but the late rains, far front injuring, have, on the contrary, tended to bring forward and fill the ear of corn, which now only wants a few days of fine dry warm weather to crown one of the most promising harvests in the memory of man. The potatoe crop will be most alma dant. —Dublin Ereni , Pg Post. CIRCUITS OF THE COMMISSIONERS FOR RE LIEF OF INSOLVENT DEBTORS. AUTUMN CIRCUITS, 1828. SOUTHERN CIRCUIT. 11. R. Ras-somas, Esq.

INQUEST ON THE BODIES. At twelve o'clock a respectable Jury of shop keepers of Old and New Windsor assembled at the Town Hall, to inquire into the circumstances attend ing the deaths of the individuals already named. . Charlotte Pidley, on Wednesday evening, was returning from Egham Races in a boat to come to Windsor Bridge. There were nineteen persons al. together in the boat. They came to Datchet Bridge about nine o'clock, and there they had something to drink. At a quarter past nine they embarked from Datchet Bridge to proceed up the river. They were then going by the shore side, when Joe. Cannon, one of the boatmen, desired his son, who was steer ing, to cross the river; he was doing so, and shortly after she heard a concussion at the bottom of the boat, she thought as if it was about to sink; she cried out that it was so; but the boatmen said " All's right." Soon after the boat filled all at once with water, and got fixed upon the stakes; when it was full of water the stern sunk under, and four women, four boys, and a girl, who were seated there, were all washed out of the boat by the stream ; that part of the boat went down at the time, some of them were floating in the water, and others were striving to get ashore; there were feur left be hind in the head of the boat with herself, they were rescued by a boat, which came to. their assistance, after they had helped those who fell into the water, as well as they could. She paid a shilling fare in the boat. It was a light sand boat ; Joseph Can non, the boatman, was, she thinks, sober at the time; he was at the public-house at Datchet Bridge; his son, who steered, was also sober; he is only 13 years of age; when they came out of the last pub• lic-house the boy said he was afraid that he could not see to steer so late ; some one answered that he could very well; Braids and Cannon were the two boatmen ; the steerer could not see over the people's heads in the boat, but if he had been an elderly per sonage, that is, a man, he could see perhaps so as to avoid the accident. In answer to the Jurors, she stated that there was a post over the water at the place where the stakes or butts commenced, and another at the end, which a grown person might see from the steerage. The Jury retired, and after a short consultation, returned with a verdict of " Accidental Death," coupled with a recommendation to the Commis sioners for Navigating the River Thames to remove the stakes. SUMMER ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. NORTHERN CIRCUIT-LANCASTER, AUG. 27. James Baldwin, a respectable-looking man, aged 50, was placed at the bar, on the charge of having wilfully and maliciously, with a certain knife, stuck, stabbed, and cut James Kenyon, with intent to murder him, at Spotland. The prosecutor was at the house of an acquaint ance, at Spotland, on the day in question. About twelve at night, however, some reason induced him to go out of the house into a field, situated ne ar a t hand. He there found the prisoner lying, apparently drunk, on his back. He spoke to him for the pur pose of rousing him. Immediately the prisoner started up, anti told the prosecutor he had a knife in his hand, and if he spoke to him, he would kill him with it. The prosecutor, however, spoke to him ' again, and the prisoner instantly wounded him severely in the calf of the leg; he then made the best of his way to the house, out of which he had just come, and shut the door. In a few minutes he was followed by the prisoner, exclaiming that he would cut the throat of the man he had just wounded. ' The Jury having consulted a few minutes, re turned a verdict of " Guilty." Mr. Justice BAYLEY then remarked, in very strong terms, on the highly improper manner in which the prisoner had conducted himself. He un derstood, however, that it was only while under the influence of liquor that his conduct was so violent. Although the law rendered him liable to be put to death, he should only direct death to be recorded against him. Further inquiries would be made with respect to his general habits of life, and their results would guide him in the representations proper to be made to his Majesty. DUCKWORTH U. JOHNSON. This was an action to recover compensation in damages for the injury done to the plaintiff, in con sequence of the defendant making a promise to marry her, which he afterwards refused to fulfil. Mr. J. WILLIAMS stated the case. The present action was brought to obtain at the hands of the Jury something like reparation for the injury which the defendant had inflicted on the plaintiff. The plaintiff was the daughter of a small manufacturer, and the defendant an overlooker of colliers. An acquaintance having been formed between them, proposals were made by the defendant in 1825 to the plaintiff; which were accepted. They even pro ceeded so far as the purchase of the licence. How ever, subsequently, without assigning any cause, the defendant thought proper to break off the connec tion, and marry a woman named Martha Holt. — The plaintiff's right of action, of course, occurred at the moment this marriage took place, but from some cause which he could not explain she on her rights since the year 1825.

He told them that in his experieOce, v meant as C o unsel—(Laughter,)—that h he had ob served, generally a great disposition to avoid—at least with those who had any knowledge of conducting these causes—any general observations on the nature of the case, as having no kind of effect, and in fact lead ing to no kind of result, and consequently pprfectly bootless. For every case (Upended merely on its particular circumstances ; and certainly there was a great peculiarity in this case, which had pressed out his friend (Mr. J. Williams) from the beginninr, to the end of the case. It hung about him like a mill stone.—(Laughter) " He could not explain," his Learned Friend had said, " how it was, or what was the cause of it; but somehow or other this good woman had slept upon her remedy, and did not bring her action as speedily as she might." Cer tainly she had not. For the cause of action, if, indeed, there were any, had arisen in 1825--and yet he need not tell the Jury that they were now trying it far on in 1828. She had certainly had a very lotg nap. His Learned Friend could give no account whatever how it was, that, displeased as she was from not gaining possession of her dusty swain; who they had heard was in'the habit of going - down into the 'coal pits in a bucket, she had submitted to the wrong she had suffered—had allowed her excited feelings to remain in The unsatisfactory state described—th:w it was brought to her knowledge, in fact, all of sudden, and she was awakened to the sense of her wrongs, and had thus become a plaintiff instead of a wife, and found herself among lawyers instead of being in the arms of her lover. But they would lose all wonder at the present action being deferred so long, when he told them why this marriage had not taken place. This would, in fact, entitle him to a verdict in favour of his client. His client had always been perfectly ready to marry her, as he had promised—it was broken on her account. They were, perhaps, aware that it was a form which ON members of the Catholic faith thought necessary, that no Catholics ought to be married according to the forms of the P r ot es t ant Ch urc h unt il they had been married according to the forms of their own Church. At this time the defendant was on bad terms with his priest, Mr. Ewsham, and therefore he was anwilling, and indeed absolutely refused, to marry them. His Only alternative remaining, them fore, was the marriage by the Protestant clergyman, which marriage was the only legal one. This she refused from conscientious motives, with which lie found no kind of fault, but she had surely no right to blame him for the non-performance of a promise which she had chiefly caused. Evidence was then adduced in proof of the Learned Counsel's assertions, after which the Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff—damages, Ten Pounds ; costs Forty Shillings. ICEBERGS NEAR THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE. (From the Cadiz Diario Mercantil, of the 29 ) " CADIZ, JULY 28.—Mr. Auverney, Captain rd . the French vessel L' Harmonic, has published, for the information of navigators, an account of several islands of ice, with which he fell in near the Cape of Good Hope. The truth of this phenomenon has since been proved by D. Pedro Medina of Correa, Chief Pilot in the Spanish trade to India, and Se cond Pilot to the vessel Coizetancio, which arrived in our Bay on the 18th instant, from Manilla:. The following is his account : "On the 7th of the present year, as the vessel Constancia, sailed in the vicinity of the Cape, north of the Needle Bank, with a fresh easterly breeze, and but little sea, the Captain descried about three quarters past ten, A.m., a small island E. 5 deg. N., which from the deck had the appearance of a white cloud. Some shadowy lines were afterwards observed in it. as is usual in land. On arriving at E.S.E. 5 deg. S. to approach near enough to ascertain what it was, it appeared at 11 A.M. to be a large island of considerable height, and divided into two' summits. Soon after, three other small islands were discovered N., at a short distance from the first. At 113- A. m., on hauling east, in a line with them, we perceived that they were white, and that the light of the pun reflected by their surface as by a mirror, whilst in those places where the sun did not shine, there were sonic shadows as are seen in distant land. We remained perplexed with this phenomenon till the middle of the day, when we took our bearings and found the latitude to be 35 deg. 56 min. 10 sec. S., and the longitude, according to the chronometer, deg. 16 min. 20 sec., by the Cadiz meridian, which agreed with the lunar observations made the day be fore. The islands then lay N. 78 deg. 30 min. \V., at a distance of seven or eight miles. We sounded and at a depth of 135 fathoms found ne bottop. besides which the water remained of a green co lour, circumstances which left no doubt on our minds that those apparent islands were banks of ice, which had come down to hit. 35 deg. 54 46 sec. S. and long. 24 deg. 7 min. 44 sec. E. of Cadiz, and 21 deg. S.W. of the Cape of Good Hope, at a distance of 30 leagues. We proceeded W.S.W. till two P.M., when steering. in a line with them, we spoke a French vessel which we had de scried since the dawn of day E.S.E. at a great dis tance. She told us that she was called L' Harmonic, front Calcutta, and asked whence we came, where bound to, and what degree of latitude we had ob served.—Having told her, she replied that our ob servations agreed with her's, arid gave us the longi tude 16 deg. 18 min. E. of Paris, which . we IL leftnswer cee seeded French' .N V vesselw it h ab ee N ehna i n E d and reA ed also agreed with ours, notwithstanding the . small t f difference of 38 min. E.

During the night the wind turned to the N.N.W. and N.W., and blew t empestuously all the following day, without our discovering any more ice. " It is certainly extraordinary that we should have encountered fields of ice in so warm a latitude, and so near the Cape of Good Hope, though Hosburgh says, i n hi s Ch art, t h at the beg i nn i ng o f summer is the time when th ey are most f reque ntly fallen in with. i He also m ent i ons t h e case o f t h e s hip Guardia, which, n lat: 46 to 47 deg., struck against one, and almost fill e d with water fro the damage which it experienced. A King's Messenger arrived with despatches from Berlin, between 10 and 11 o'clock on Thursday night. The messenger came by route of Paris, and brought de spatches from our Ambassador.
