From the pro. digious number of lamps which blazed around in all colours, an the various devices which every where met the eye, the effect upon entering the gardens was extremely striking; and that effect was heightened by the gay appearance of the groups that paraded the different walks. The fire-works were un usually splendid, and the concert and other amusements gave equal satisfaction. The gardens were much crowded, and the crush to witness some of the exhibitions was occasionally quite formidable. RAMSGATE, Am). 31.—Yeaterday there was the greatest concourse of people assembled here that ever was known, except on the day when his Majesty embarked from the port for his Electorate of Hanover. Every inn and public house continued crowded during the whole of the day till midnight ; the prin cipal streets were thronged during that time, and in some parts they were impassible without considerable exertion. The great attraction for the temporary visitors to remain after seeing the first stone for the New Church' laid, was to see the town illu minated for the first time with gas, which excited a considerable degree of interest and curiosity. It is said that this town will be lighted as well as any town in England. There are no less than five miles of main pipes laid down for the purpose. The town of Margate is to be lighted with gas in a few even ings by the Isle of Thanet Gas Light and Croke CompanT.— The pier of the town is to have the number of 24 lamps, besides the large one at the end, which will opemte as a light-house..— The Ductless of Kent, the Princess Feodore, and the Princess Vittoria enjoy the sea breeze every morning about an hour and ' a half or two hours on the sands.

LAUNCH Or AN EAST INDIAMAN AT ROCHESTER.—A new East Indiaman, about 600 tons burthen, was latinched on Thursday from'the Dock-yard of Messrs. Brindley and Co. at Rocheskt, built for Messrs. Macqueen and Palmer. She had not proceeded far on the Slip, when part of the cradle gave way, and she stopped on the sliding banks, but she was fortunately got off' on the return of th e tid e . S he is•namtid The City of Rochester, in compliment to the City, and as she is built on a construction at once novel and economical, she bids fair to ex tend the fame of the City in naval architecture. Her bottom and sides consist of separate thicknesses of 'planks, worked fore-and-aft ways, • lapping over the joints or seams of each other alternately, and under the last coating or outside plank ing, there are iron hoop ribs, worked at proper distances, cross ing at right angles the planking of the bottom, sides, and deck, and are firmly secured, within side the ship, with scrcw-nuts made suitable for the purpose, the whole forming a conibina don of strength, which, upon calculation, is estimated to resist 80,000 tons. It appears a very simple improvement, and if these facts become plain, it no longer becomes a matter of dou bt ftil choice whether all ships and vessels should not be built on this plan, especially as life and property are infinitely more se cure from the danger of the sea than in any other ship built in the common way. As, upon this principle, it Is next to iinpos sibility a ship can founder at sea. The ship sails next week for the East Indiei, and we shall have a demonstration of one of the greatest improvements in naval architecture that has oc curred for centuries past.—The owners gave an excellent din ner on the occason to the 31ayor and Corporation, and to which were also invited the gentry of the surrounding country. A sphildid ball was given in the evening at the Assembly Room, which was attended by all the rank and fashion of the neigh bourhood.

On Tuesday evening, another trial of skill took place on the Thames, in a contested match between two gentlemen named Fearnsides.and Duke, who, for the above sum, undertook to row against each other in watermen's wherries from Battersea.. bridge, through then centre arch of Putney, and back to Vaux. hall-bridge, the first in to be the winner. These competitors being experienced in managing the oar, a fine contest was an ticipated, and the admirers of aquatic sports present were nu therous. At six o'clock the starting galley appeared in the centre of the river, followed by the competitors. A discussion then ensued, and after the preliminary articles had been ar. ranged and agreed to, the rowers took their stations under the middle arch of Battersea-bridge, surrounded by the gal. levs. At starting Mr. Duke took the l ea d, an d ma i nta i ned it some distance,. , although hard pressed by his antagonist, Mr. Fearnsides, who, in a short time, passed his rival anti left him at a distance. At Putney-bridge Mr. Fearnsides had passed through the centre arch, and was on his return down again,. when he wasfould by his opponent, who at that time had not reached his distance. Mr. F. however, soon ex tricated himself from Mr. D. and proceeded on his course to Vauxhall Bridge, where he quickly arrived, followed by t h e whole train of boats and the loud greetings of his friendtt.— Mr. Duke, on finding that he had no chance of success, re signed the contest at Chelsea, and went on shore. Bets to. the amount of about 2001. were won and lost on the match. HEAT OF THE WEATHER.—Yesterday was one of the hottest days which we have experienced throughout the whole summer : the thermometer in the shade, at, two o'clock, was as hi g h as 8 3 degree s tstages n n ; The horses in th e diff erent g tern road suffered severely ca, b n ial:r h e e nl ‘ te v it e from the intensity of the hest, and we understand that three line cattle 'dropped down dead be tweets Maidenhead and London. A reaper, in a field near Brentford, was struck by the heat of the sun at one o'clock, and was carried home in a state of delirium. SUDDEN DEATH.—Yesterday JOHN DYER, a Keeper in the Royal Menagerie in the Tower, apparently in good health, suddenly fell down and immediately expireil. lie was a young man in the prime of life. DEATH BY DROWNING.---Yesterday, between seven and eight o'clock in the evening, as a fine youth, named Joseph Anson, about 14 years of age, was bathing along with several other boys„ near Battersea Bridge, the lad very incautiously walked up to his chin in the water, and before he could turn towards the shore, or extricate himself from his perilous situation, he was carried away by the current, and unfortunately drowned in sight of his companions, who could render him no assistance. The deceased was the only son of opulent parents, residing at Kennington. Yesterday morning, about seven o'clock, ns two young men of the names of Gould and Thomas, were bathing in the New River, near Hopping-lane, Islington , a tall fellow whom they observed prowling about the spot with a bag on his shoulders, on their arrival at the hanks of the river, snatched up their coats, waistcoats, apd shirts, as soon as they had plunged into the iv6ttor, and starting oil with them in his bag across the fields towards the Lower-road, got clear dr. THEIR SANDWICH MAJESTIES. Bet weert....the bouts. of twel ve and one o'clock yesterday morning, an alarm was raised in the neighbourhood of St. Martin's-lane, in conite• quettce of the following circumstance :—As one • of the watchmen was , crying half-past twelve o'clock, he was accosted by . a respectably-dressed man, who inquired if there was any passage from the grave -yard to: the vaults betteath the church, in which th e Ki ng an d Q ueen of the Sandwich Islaods were understood t o h ave b een p l ace d un . 01 they were taken,back to their native country? The watchman said Allot he was not aware of any ~ such passage being in the grave-yard, and asked the seeming gentleman what in.' duced him to put so singular a question ? " Because," rejoined the other, 44 I .have been for the last half hour here observing the motions of. three men, one of Whom clambered over the railings of the grave-yard as I came by Church -passage„ and, not thinking that I perceived : the circumstance, he took no notice :of me, but stood quite still until he was joined by the others, to one of who m he gave .some long instru ment that appeared, at the dis tance I was from them, to be a crow-bar. The three fellows then passed into the Strand, turned up St. Martin's-lane, and stopped nearly opposite, the King's Mews for some minutes, when they' crossed •to the church-yard, apparently wit!, th e intention of reconnoitring at that end : how ever, a man and his wife turned into the craurch yard immediately after, and knocked loudly at one of the hall-doors, when the fellows walk e d rapidly away towards the Strand, and all' further trace of them was then lust." Search was made in every nook likely to afford cots cealment•to the supposed resurrectionists, or any paraphernalia they might have had ; but nothitig %vas ..found 'calculated to excite additional suspi cions of any attempt of the kind described.— Every avenue to the grave-yard and the church was perfectly secure ; and us the watchman goes completely round every half-hour, there could be little likelihood of any person being enabled to procure entrance to the church without detection. Whether the story was intended merely as a hoax on the watchman, or whether any deeper design was concealed beneath this plausible pretext, we are by no means capable of deciding. One thing, however, is certain, that the entombment of those ill-fated personages was, prior to that event, a matter of very anxious inquiry n ith several mem bers of a certain profession that practise on the dead for the benefit of the quick. One ,gent man in particular is said to have offered no less than 6004 for either of the bodies ; this, how. ever, is questionable, thought we remember a very recent case, where JOU was paid for a di. minutive subject,.. the ,poor little dwarf that was ••• exhibited in. the Strand. In regard to any sacri. legions design cootemplated against the posthd. mous repose of S an d w i c h roya l ty , w hil st i n t h e vaults.of,St. M ort i o ' s (Morel), we are enabled to say, on good authority, that nothing could be more futile: or Tidiculous, as every avenue is most strongly defended, and we make no doubt it was in consequence of that very circumstance this ce. metery was selected in preference to all others as the temporary depository of the iil.faLed Tame. hainalu and his Royal Consort. 130W•STREET--('l'nr DAY.) GROSS IsteosmoN.—The driver of the hack. ney-coach, No. 426, was summoned by a respectable gentleman, named West, who, it appeared, had hired the defendant's coach for upwards of six hours, and on asking the coachman his fare, he replied 205., and would not take less. The gentleman said he had no less than three times, within a few days, gone the same distance, and then he was only charged 15s. The coachman, in his defence, de nied ever asking 20s. as the fare, but admitted receiving 56. in the evening, and 154. the follow.. ing morning. Sir R. Litumn said, from the coachman's own showing, he had takeu more than his fare, and convicted him in the penalty of 10s. and costs. William Sullivan, a mere boy, but en old offender, was charged with stealing a very valu able silver watch, two seals and a key, the pro. perty of some person unknowu. The prisoner was met, in company with two other reputed thieves, near St. Giles's Church, when he took out the watch and chewed it to his companions. Rawlins, the officer, observing them, went up and secured the prisoner, hut was unable to take the ottiiirsi who are, however, well known.— From the contradictory statements of the pri soner, Sir ILALroiti.:. remanded him until the owner can be found, GENERAL QUARIER SESSIONS.—A" circurn stunce of rather a novel nature, but certainly highly improper, occurred at n General Quarter• Sessions of the Peace held within the Bills of Mortality in July last, by a person personating mother in Court for the purpose of discharging a recognizance. This proceeding remains unknoWn to the Court, but no doubt for the future the Courts of Session will take care that persons do not appear again by proxy, and prevent repetition of such gross imposition and con• tempt.
