As usual, many persons, the worse of liquor, making a noise, and many on their way to their friends as first-foot on the corn mencentew of the New Year, traversed the streets.

Mr. WILLI/Ims was in the Chair when the vote fur this address was passed. CITY PUGILISM.—A curious circumstance oc curred yesterday stunning on the . Stock Ex change ; the Bulls and Bears were indiscriminately assembled round the fire, con vet sing upon the to pics of the day, when Mr. A. was soddenly-push ed against Mr. L., and the .lat ter fell on the grate. On recovering ft•orn the impulse of the moment lie gave Mr. A. veliat is termed is that school of mo rality, a fibber. Mr. A., having studied the art of .elf-defence, returned the compliment with a floorer, and in this display of his pugilistic prowess dirided the nose of Mr. L. into two parts : the whole drove of Bulls and Bears then interfered, and put a stop to any further proceedings. The system of lurking, as these Gentlemen term it, has been carried fo a disgraceful extent in the House, and we hope the above circumstance will induce the Committee in future to put a stop to such proceedings. Un 7'neiti4y the Subscription-room at Lloyd's was suddenly thrown into confusion, by two at the inmates having a complete set-to. Mr. R and Mr. P. were disputing about some mercantile trausaetions, when wends led to blows, and at it they went, according to the modern system. — Both being pretty expert in the Isfined att some sharp blows rook place, and three distinct rounds ensued. Although they were surrounded wi:h insurers from loss or damage by the elements, no one stepped torward to insure them front broken bones, consequently they were not separated till after a moderate quantity of claret had been drawn from each party.

BRIGHTON, JAN. 4. The PRENCB REGRNT, accompanied by GPllerfll Sir B. Bloomfield, was on horseback on the West ern Douns to-day. The Duchess of Gloucester took an siring in her carriage. The weather was bright, but the air was rough and cutting. The Duke of Gloucester arrivrd in Mat lborotigh. row, this evening, about half-bast five o'clock. The Prince Regent, and, we believe, the Duke of Gloucester, delay their departure hence tinrii Thursday at soonest. Ilis Royal Highness had fixed the day of removal for to-morrow, but to give to the Duchess an opportunity of beholdiug tie splendor and effect, of the Grand Suite of Apartments at the Pavilion, when completely il, 'unlimited, the whole has been got ready, end, for the first time, to be generally lighted up this evening ; and this arrangement, we understand . , has occasioned the day of departure to be changed. Invitations to a select circle of Nobility have been issued, who will have the honour to meet the Regent, and the Royal Doke and Duchess. '1 he upper class of domestics continued their festivities of last night, until almost day-Inesk this morning. The second class will hove their turn for met riment to-morrow evening.

THE SEAPIINTINE Riven.-The aspect of a Siberian Winter presented itself yesterday. Every object in nature was covered by " mighty frost." Hyde Park, particularly its walks to the Serpen tine River, were filled with the g►ry and fashion able. From three till five o'clock the river kart; covered with multitudes. The bane, o►n the North, East, and Solidi, were .vith well dressed spectators. Although were no fe male skaiters, there were mai►y slitters. Mr. LotiGLAsins, Sir Tnos.

The frost still continues so intense, that the Thames is now frozen over, to an extent of neatly one-third of its breadth, on the Surrey side, be tween the bridges. D‘iring the thick fog, din Tuesday night, eve ntl accidents occurred, particularly on the Es'ex and Mile End Unads. As the ',red.+ coach was pass,ing, on Tuesday morning, between the liaw. try and Ferrybridge, it came up to a cart, which was standing by the road side, with a man sittiiig iu ir, in an upright posture, with the rein hang ing loose in his hand. The "..*.le coachman having called to hint sevaral tunes wit.butst receiving any answer, alighted ; and, on examining the man, was shocked to find hint quite dead. He had doubtless perished through the iuclumeney of the weather. IRELAND. THE LATE COUNTESS TALBOT. The Rempins of our lamented Vice-Queen will be removed to the Pigeon-House on Saturday, for the purpose of being conveyed, on board the Royal Yacht, to England, to be deposited in the family cemetery of her Noble Consort. This ceremony will be public, and it will give, therefore, an op portunity to all ranks and classes of this city, to testify their respect and sorrow for the illustrious dead; and from the feeling►. of this description which universally prevail, the melancholy pro cession to the vrater.side we imagine, unite as large an RSsvaibla ge of the public, generally, as ever paid a tribute to departed greatness, and to the virtues by which it becomes dignified. Among the contributions of piablic sensibility to the exalted worth and humanity of the late Countess Talbot, that offered by the Corporatiou of Weavers, is, perhaps, ;lot the least esiim The record which that body gives of her having devoted her rank and influence to the succour of poverty and misfornne, is an offering of infi nitely mote value than ordinary enlogium, how ever just. It exhibits her Excellency as the pa troness and encourager of decaying in d ustry, and the ftiend r,f the pont and miser Ade artizin. The good she perfottned was done without display or ostentation, and the course she took was that, which, of all others, was nips, likely to be pro. ductive of great ind extensive benefit. The ex amples of her charity and her tyitinty are mani fold, and to be held tip to the great and the atilt.. ent for imitation. It till give general satisfaction to state, flist his Excellency Earl Talbot hears the calamity that has befallen him with exemplary fortitude anti .ohmission to the will of HIM, who rules the des tiny of worlds as well as in orals. A stunt seeps ,ion from his high duties here, however, is thooght necessary ; and we are informed, that, having consigned the Vice-regal powers to a Com mission, his Excellency will depart for Eugland this week, and in such time as to nieet the re mains of his beloved Lady at Liverpool, where they will be landed from the yacht. Thu place of interment is at Ingestrie, in Staffordshire. His ExcellencY's absence will, we understand, be of about six weeks duration —The (Dub:in) corre spondent. Just. 3.

She saw her dissolution approach with firmness and resignation, and quitted life, after baring taken a calm and affectionate farewell of her family. Her disease was an inflammation of the bobeels ending in mortification ; she Ices in her 37th year.
