These brothels have been too long allowed to exist, and it is a subject of surprise that the at. retain!) of the Police has not been directed to re move—the thieves of all descriptions, (many of whotn must be known to the officers,) that infest the neighbourhood, and are in part supported by the unfortunate inmates of these dens of infamy, in which, we are ►nfortr,ed that females, apparently not more than fourteen years of age, reside fur the avowed purposes of. prostitution. Several persons have been plundered and ill used, and it is not many weeks since a Gentleman,, in a state of inebriety ; was enticed into one of lie houses, a ittl robbed of more than 300 pontiffs in notes. and a valt.able gold watch. These brothels, it is said, are kept by a woman, who, it is added. has several in other situations, and employs servants in their rminagement, one of Whom is represented as her mother, and others as her sisters, while her husband, according to report, keeps a shop in an or;'ier- vicinity and is, apparently, nn honest trades man !

MR.

Restricted as Mr. Mu- DIE has been by his plait to very narrow limits (compared with the subjects which might, and which I could wi s h the p a t ronage of the Publ c may yet induce hiM to record, by doubling the number of his Medals), great praise is due to this Gentleman for the judgment with which he has selected the most interesting. front a crowd of brilliant and important events, and the impartial division which he has Made of Civil, Naval, and Military Occurrences, so as to give as faithful and COMprehenSive a view of the most prominent and interesting circumstances which this remarkable period of our history affords to the attentive ob server. In the first.division of these subjects, I know not of any one - which is more singular in our annals, or which excited more interest at the tiMe, than the visit of the Allied Sovereigns of Rnsst,i - and PrUssia to this country in 1814, and avhiet Lain glad to find has been selected by Mr. Muiste as the subject of the Medal just publish ed, and which will record to future generatioes the tribute of respect which by this Visit was paid by these MOsarchi to that noble system of action laid down by the immortal PITT (who may justly be styled to have been " the exciting salvation of Britain ;)" and by steadily put siting which,' his suecessors not only " weathered the storm," but, with their own, preserved also the liberties and independence of Eurbpe ; sentiments which 'were treokteolv ex tressed (and with great justice) by these August Persons on various occasions. It has been to me a matter of surprise and regret that this visit has not been recorded by a Medal Worti.y of the occasion ; and I feel, therefore; the more obliged to Mr. MUDIE for repairing the omission and tteglect of others.

Mr. PHILLIPS applied to the Court that this case, which was specially fixed fur this day, might be postponed for the present, as it was then tin der compromise, •and - all probability would be seLt ;et, before the day next appointed for trial. Lord -NOHBURY said it would be desirable that theilarties would arrange matters amicably be tmeen_.them ; and in order to afford than titne to effect which, he would order the cause to be put last nn the list. We understand that a comprouCse has since been entered into, the plaintiff having consented to receive 3,5001. . , CORK, MAY 25.—0 n Wednesday evening the Deputy Witter Bailiff, Mr. BECHER, attended by a constable, boarded off the Sovereign's Island, near Kinsale'," the brig zanies Fitzpatrick, bound for Philadelphia, which had left this pOrt on the preceding evening, in search of a per son of the name of Twomey, Who had acted as Tithe Proctor to the Rev. iwJr. Beaufort, of Cloyne, .and had eloped seVeral days ago with it sum over two thousand pounds, partly be longing to that gentleman, partly to others, by whom he bad been confidently employed. Atter diligent search he was found concealed in the coal-scuttle, but Considerable risk and difficulty were encountered in taking him ashore, as the other passengers opposed it ; and it was not until theCap rain had threatened to run the vessel into Kinsale that they desisted from resistance, and suffered Twomey to be put 'on board the boat which was alongside the ship, in order to be carried on shore. This, however, was at length effected, and the prisoner condtiC!ed to the county jail—but we understand the capture of the man is not likely to lead to a recovery of the proflet't y,as that was traus ferretl to his wife, who was on board, but against whom there was no warrant, and she proecetied on the voyage. Such are the patticulars we have learned of this transaction, of the correctness of ‘vhien we have reason to be assured.—(Curk Chronicle) All the Govet nment State Papers have been moved to the house in Gr,-at George-street, formerly occupied by the Pay-Master-General of the Volunteer Troops.

Several scrambling chance blows told on both sides, hut Burn was knocked down again; and front the manlier in which the men went to work, it was evident it Would he a short but merry fight. 3. Shelton wai hit through his guard, and Burn, in pur suit, gut into a close, and threw his ad vers:ity. 4. A real fighting round; both stood manfully to their work, like a British tar to his gun. tearless of consequenc e s. Burn placed first hit on the neck, but tie was returned upon, and it gay rally follow 4 which excited the tvinihation of the ring. in a close Shelton was thrown: S.

Shelton was thrown in a close, or he rattler seemed to wi,ll a liit of rest. 9.

Both too tired for work, and no mischief done. 17. Wind had recruited and the men went to work again, *hen Burn knocked his adversary doe/n witu a Cdatterink facer, 18. Both down in a close. 19. A pu,nishing round on both sides, and both down in a 'close. 20. Burn was thrown !warily, and he ner , r, recovered it: 21. Shelton received a peaty hit, which nearly ciihed his left eye. 4i.

He however stood up until the 35111 found, when he received a heavy hit on the head, and remained for some motion less; and Shelton must have been glad euon6h to hear that he had won. • RemAßKs.—ln 33 minntes there was more exe. colon done tham in the modern system of 6gtiting two or three hours. It was not wrestling at aotl hugging ropes; it was all manhood, and whilst Burn is not to be scoffed at; Shelton is the hest of the heavy weights of the day. His guile, which was once doubted, is tfecidedly of the tiist order; and the manner in which he beat his flerewl, tits antagonist, makes Harry Monier as good a man as ever peeled; and it does credit to the imdlist talent of the voeran Richmond. Shelton %%as probably in better condi.iou than he ever teas be fore, and lie limed his advtjstary to a great nic,iy. Burn is a very heavy hitter, but the practice of the ring is wanted for him 'to judge .his diohnet. Whoever may have him next will find him very troublesome. AYRES AND DEAF DAVIS. The fight between the,e brave little heroes,' under 10stone, came on second. These !lien areA he best of their weights that evlr stripped for a prize. The fight lasted nearly two hours, and it was all strong action. Apes is a Randall fighter, exqui site w lan in, and ni going down in tine 9:h round, he practised that great pugilistic art of hitting when in the act of 141 ling. Like Turner, Davis sets-to with his right foot in advance, and liis Ictt is the punishing hand., : Ayres led at starting, and out-fought his adversary by avoiding his heavy hitting hand.- Davis, howev,.r, was backed at ak and seven to tour at setting -to, and the odds yd., rigid in nearly every tonna.
