We regret to state that the extraordinary flood of the Dee occasioned a melancholy accident on Wed nesday,ut Michael Fair of Charlton, Aboyne. A boat, with nine persons in it, intending to cross over from the market to the south side of the river, had but just pushed off, when it WRS car ried down by the rapidity of the current, and immediately filled with water, by which the pas sengers were, with the exception of one man, im mersed in the river. By the assistance of some people who witnessed the accident, or were drawn to the spot on the alarm being given, and the strenuous exertions of those in the water them selves, six of the passengers were soon got to land, while the seventh, a young man of the name of Manic, was with difficulty saved by some people on horseback, who, followed the boat, to which he still clung, a great way down the river, and saved him by extending a long rod for his rescue. A woman, of the name of Thomson, and her oldest child, a girl of about eleven or twelve years, of age, were soon however carried beyond the• rgach of assistance, and unfortunately drown ed. The poor woman was the mother of a large family.--(Aberdeen chronicle.) COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL. Yesterday a Court of Common Council was ltektfor the dispatch of a variety of important business. The Loan MAY on submitted to the Court a letter from Al derman Garratt, the Lord Mayor Elect, signifying his intention to accept the office to which he had been elected by the Livery in Common Hall assembled. Mr. S. DIXON moved that the communication should be in serted on the journals. The I,waiillAvort then laid before the Court the copy of a vote of thanks from the Committee managing the subscription for the distressed settlers at the Cape of Good Hope. The re solution expressed in warm terms the thanks of the poor sufferers for the munificent grant which they had received from the Cor poration. It was resolved that this communication also should be enter ed on the journals. PRICE OF C 0.11.3. - - The LORD MAYOR rose, and said he had to call the attention of the Court to a matter which was of the utmost importance not only to their constituents, but to all the inhabitants of the Metropolis. Notwithstanding the inenase'of tile number of coal meters, which some salesmen had declated would remedy every evil—notwithstanding the reduction in the duty on coals to the amount of 3s. 1;11. per chaldron, and all the measures that had taken place, coals were now higher in price than last year.— (Cries of Hear, hear !)—At the lust market there were only two entire cargoes of coals brought into the market. This was a matter which he wished to propose should be referred to the Coal and Corn Committee for their consideration. Perhaps the circumstance of the late winds might in some degree account for this circumstance; but there could be no doubt that there were other great general canes in operation. He had received information that the sale of coals at Sunderland was monopo lized • and he believed it was well known that the fitters or in termediate purchasers would not ship any coals until their first vessels returned to take them. . For a long time past Ire had observed the market returns, and perceived that the supply of ships was closely apportioned to the demand in the market; so closely, as to manifest that it could not be the effect of chance but of concert. In no instance would it be found that more than ten per cent. of the great quantity brought from all quarters re mained unsold on the market-day, and indeed the proportion was often much less. It might be observed also, that the sup plies from the various pits were remarkably uniform and nicely apportioned. It was a remarkable thing, that whilst almost every other commodity had fallen in value, the price of coals was still maintained at an enormous height. An increase of only 10d. per chaldron put no less a sum than 50,000/. per annum into the pockets of the sellers.—(llcm, hear !)—They might judge then of the gains which were derived by the extraordinary rise which had recently taken place, when the price was encreas. ed from 395. to 48s. per chaldron. The whole of this sum of 9s. per chaldron must by this concert go into the pockets of the sellers. of • nicely apportioning th e supply ,With otlie the whole Metropolis was kept at all demand,the present system Ones exposed to a scarcity, which might be occasioned by the slightest accidents, or by contrary winds, which might delay the vessels for weeks.: But he would ask what they might ex pect if they were to have an excessively severe winter? He felt It his duty to bring this subject immediately before the Court; and if they felt, as he did, its extreme importance, he hoped the facts he had mentioned would be taken into consideration by the Coal and Corn Committee. Mr. S. Dixox agreed that the subject was one of high im. portance. Ile expressed his opinion, however, that the corn. plaint made by the Lord Mayor against the coal dealers of con cert in not allowing the supply to exceed the demand, was applicable to other trades. The dealers in tea, and fish, and factman many a e r t iel r was es as alway s ortof innate managed in t depravity i wh : i e c i manner; aateti a an ti dispo sition in to monopolize in every other article of general consump tion besides coals. lie was ready to join in any measure which would prevent a scarcity, but it was a matter of the greatest ITTt n n e y d a tl c i o a l t i t t l ra te r s y -a eritiletuls,ineaTshuarevesryadtgeto.nt don of the possibility of a sc arc i ty i in such a pl ace as t h at , h a d b di v fli t c h i a il t t) C •t op an rt d i i i t :it s t o g h L t i l e ) " we cannot l a y i n our coals too the tendency to produce one. Families natura ll y sa id , when they read such statements, soon;" and the consequence was, that a general demand took place, and the price was in consequence raised. He remem bered some years ago, when the Lord M a y or an d a Comm i ttee tion, stated that a scarcity of bread w a s to h e apprehended, that very statement had the That the consideration of the statement made by the Lord Mayor should , be referred to the Coal and Corn Committee." They should guard however against any measures of the unfortunately experimental nature which-they had before adopted. .With respect to the duty, he bad predicted that the public would not be benefited by its reduction, and his prediction had been verified. Mr. FAYELI i n seconding the motion observed, that coals was not the only article in which the reduction of the duty had not been felt by the consumers. The duty on leather had been reduced without the prices of shoes being generally dim ini sh ed. Mr. H u RCONDE observed, that if the Western coal pits were encouraged, a large supply might he obtained from them by inland carriage. Mr. Alderman C. S 31x TH said, the supply was greater during the present than any former year, and contended, as we un derstood him, that there was no necessity for the present motion. , The LORD MAYtatt said, it was to be admitted that there were 300 ships more in the present than during the last year, but it was to be accounted for from the increased number of gas-works, if not front the incrusing population. llut within the last two months there were 400 less vessels than during the corresponding term last year. Mr. DixoN, with respect to encouraging the Western Col. leries observed, that this could not be-done without enhancing the price in tlid.t direction, and that the coals takes from the pits there were of too light a quality. After some further observations, the motion was carried. TITHES. AIL CARTER presented a petition from the inhabitants of St. Botolph, Alilgate, praying for aid against the exorbitant de mands set up by their lay improprirttor of 2s. 9d. in the pound on the rack rent for tithes. . Air. Carter stated that the lay im proprietor, from his unjustifiable demands, obtained from tour to hve thousand pounds, and the officiating Minister was tiot withstanding most inad equate l y prov id e d for. The inhabitants were, however, desirous of avoiding litigation, and of nicking a fair and reasonable settlement. But die lay impropriator had manifested no disposition to enter into any accommodation. Ile had filed bills in Chancery against some of the inhabitants, a:id threatened proceedings against others. They had subscribed for their mutual defence, but still they felt themselves inade quate in point of pecuniary means to cope with such an adver sary ; and they prayed the Court, as the question was one of the most extensive and important nature, and as part of the estates in that parish belonged to the Corporation, and their value would be materially affected should the detnand suc ceed, that they might receive from the Court similar aid to that given to the parishes which were similarly oppressed. Air. STANDRING, one of the petitioners, addressed the Court at great length, and praised its general spirit in assisting the oppressed. This parish had peculiar claims, for it was motion, of such grievously burthened, its inhabitants were many of them of the , and said labouring class, and the poors' rates were exceedingly heavy. Upon a rental 37,0001. they had to pay poore rates and other charges to the amount of 29,0904 ' r. CARTER moved that the petition should be referred to thee e ae that n t i w n a it s te t e ge duty Alr. o l f lA th v e E C L o L ur s t e t c o o a n id le i l n intolerable abuses, and to make common cause with the parishioners. They . were bound to do this from interest as well as from principle. ;Mr. Dr xox expressed his belief (as veenriderstood him) r that the grant of 2s. tki. in the pound was madelothe Clergy for the purposesof their repairing the Church, and maintaining the poor, as well as for the purpose of supporting themselves. He would vote for the proposed aid being given, not because the petitioners were tenants of the Corporation, for that was a iner 'eenary motive, but because they had been proceeded against oppressively. AIL Svc stated, that there was every ground for hope that an application to Parliament would be eucceasful, and it was extremely desirable that the whole of the parishes should jail). The hector. of St. Andrew's, Holborn, had been offered one shilling in thapound, which he refused; • Th e consequence was, that the Bill was passed giving him no more than one shilling in the pound, including the Easter Offe r i ngs, w hi c h were not included In the first offer; and the question as to that parish was now pet at rest for ever. ,lUr, J s MIS said, that when a Dill was applisil f ur in behalf of the parish of St. Andrew, it. might have been made to include all the other oppressed parishes. • Mr. HuncosigE said, he was sure that all the other parishes would gladly unite in obtaining a general measure of relief. The Lot:4) MAYOR said, that from, the- cases which had come before him in his Magisterial capacity he. had felt it his duty to pay particular attention to the subject. /le was con vinced that individuals were unable to contest this right, and that those who maintained it were stronger even than the pa rishes. He was of opinion that the Corporation should there fore lend their aid to the sufferers. They had met at his sug gestion, and he was glad they had made the presentapplieation. He had been accused of having been the instigator of the pro ceedings in St. Andrew's, Holborn. He wished he could claim that merit. He had no doubt that the inhabitants would hive been very willing to have joined in a general bill had it been proposed to them. It was then agreed to, that the petition should be referred to the Tithe Committee for them to act upon as they should be advised ; and it was ordered that they should from time to tune report to the Court their proceedings. ST. PETER'S, CORNHILL. - • The Loan Maxon announced to the Court, that, in cone. quence of the death of Dr. Itoberts, the living of St. Peter's, Cornhill, was vacant; and if it would suit the convenience of the Members, the election would take place on the next Court day. Mr. Di xoN begged to ask of the Town Clerk when and how it was that living came into the gift of the City-? Mr. Deputy Ron TII spoke to order, and declared, that such a question ought not to be put, and certainly should not be publicly answered. Mr. Ducox persisted; when The LORD M AYOIt declared the Worthy Member to be out of order, there being no motion then before the Court. DEPUTY BAILIFF, SOUTHWARK. Mr. Deputy ROUTH then rose upon a question of privilege. It would be in the recollection of the Court, that when Mr. Lindsey, the . Deputy Bailiff for the Borough of Southwark, complained of having been improperly ejected from his office by the High Bailiff, Mr. Prinsep, they came to a Resolution, that, pending the inquiry which they caused to be instituted, they could not recognize any other person than Mr. Arthur Lindsey as the Deputy Bailiff: Mr. Lindsey had in consequence con. tinned to act in the situation to which he was appointed, and all went on as before until Saturday, the 16th instant, when the Committee appointed to examine into the charges preferred by the High Bailiff against his Deputy unanimously declare them to.be frivolous and vexatious. No sooner did the High Bailiff learn the decision of the Committee than he gave Mr. Lindsey a formal revocation of his appointment, and immediately ap pointed Mr: Philip Jackson as Deputy Bailiff. The Worthy Member argued at some length upon these facts, and concluded by moving a Resolution to the effect, that in the opinion of the Court the High bad been guilty of a breach of their privileges. • Mr. Lindsey then appeared at the bar, and was'examined as to the truth of the facts contained in the above statement. He produced the copy of the revocation of the appointment served upon him, and related various official acts subsequently,per formed by Mr. Jackson as Deputy Bailiff. Mr. Jamus expressed himself dissatisfied with the evidence given on this subject; but s a id th at t h e Hi g h Bailiff was in Court just before the present motion-was made; and had left in the understanding that the presentment of the report of the Committee and all other proceedings were to stand over until the next Court-day. It was but fair to give him an opportunity of answering the charge. Mr. PAVEL.I. said, although he had been an early friend of the High Bailiff, he felt himself compelled to second the Re solution. Mr. JAMES warmly opposed the resolution, and moved as an I amendment—That the consideration of it should be postponed until the next Court day. He contended that no breach of pri vilege had been committed, inasmuch as the High Bailiff, al though he could not appoint a Deputy without the sanction of the Court, might refuse to admit any Deputy of the court's ap pointment. He was responsible for the acts of his agent; and the Court had no right to make,. him responsible for . the acts of an agent of whom he did not approve. Ile might, if he thought proper, execute the office entirely without a Deputy. The re. solution of the Court said they would not recognise any one . but Mr. Lindsey as Deputy Bailiff. The High Bailiff had not asked them to recognise any Other person When he did, and appointed a person whom the Court refused to recognise, then would be the time to complain of breach of privilege. Mr. I - Junco:tint appealed to the common sense of the Court, whether, upon the Learned Member's admission of the ineligibility of any person to serve the office without their sanction, the High Bailiff' had not been guilty of a breach of privilege ? The Resolution was carried. Some routine business was dispatched, when the Court was adjourned. ANECDOTE OF TUE KING 01: FRANCE.—TWO or three years since as the King, then only Monsieur, was walking in the environs of Saint Cloud, accompanied by the Duke de Guiche, he met in a lane, near the manufactory of Sevre, a woman with a child in her arms weeping bitterly. " What is the matter, my good woman ?" asked the Prince. —" Alas, Sir, this little girl was to be baptized to-day ; I have promised the mother to be godmother, and a neighbour was to be godfather; but he has just broken his word, and I am in great distress."—" Is that all ?" said the Prince in an affiible manner, " your grief is easily relieved ; if you will per mit me I will be the godf a th er ."—" Oh, Sir, you are joking." —" Not at all I assure you."_" Will you really be so good ? how delighted I am." The woman, who did not know the Prince, and took him to be merely some gen tleman of the City, with warm and repeated expressions of her satisfaction conducted him to the Church, where the "faMily of the child were already assembled. She there presented the new godfither. The 3linister took up the ,pen—" What is your name ?"—" Monsieur.—" Mon sieur what r'--" Only Monsieur."—" What do you mean by only Monsieur ?"—" Write then, if you please. --:Monsieur, the King's brother." The pleasure and astonishment of the little party may be imagined; the Prince had great difficulty in restraining their transports of gratitude and repressing their shouts of rive Monsieur which would have betrayed his incognito. li if, Royal Highness presented 25 Louis to the godmother, and as the mother of the child was poor, he has since allowed her pension, which will hereafter descend to the daughter, and form her marriage portion.—( Paris Paper.) Lu NA It It AINDOW.—A remarkably 6ne speci men of this rare phenomenon was witnessed at Middleton, 12 miles west of Edinburgh, on Friday the Ist instant, about ten o'clock in the evening. The day and the hour determine of course the position of the moon, as well as that of the rain. bow. This beautiful meteor, when first observed, was fully formed, and the segment of the circle which it described on a rather thick cloudy sky, every where distinctly and even strong. ly marked. It began to fade in a minute or two after being first seen, ar.d had totally vanished In about the space of three minutes. The writer has not witnessed any solar rainbow the formation of which was so uniform and regular. But it had not the noble expansion of arch which distinguishes that me-, teor ; and being of a dull sort of white, displayed nowhere its variety and brilliancy of colours. It may be observed, how ever, that owing to the surrounding darkness, the lunar rainbow, though by no means so striking an object as that , produced by the sun is a far more singular and much more imposing spec tinaclplere. s y on h . e ra l r t ity des o c f rv tl es ie s t i t g o t t l i t c n e, o tdhosutbtalicielipisnrcreognusiednecyraloilty. thisthe meteoric phenomenon has attracted the notice of philosophers. Some observation* on the subject, however, have been handed down. Aristotle is said to have seen two lunar rainbows in his time. Several other authors, such as (lemma, tienuert, Snelling, and Dr. Plot, are said to have witnessed the same phenomenon. It is suspected, indeed, that some of these writers have been mistaken, and have handed down to us, in place of lunar rainbows, halos merely, or crowns round the moon, spectacles by no means rare. But since the beginning of the last century, observations much more certain have been made, which prove that the moon sometimes enjoys the privi leges of the sun. According to the Phil. Trans. No. 331, there was seen in 1711 a lunarrainbow, well coloured arid well defined, in the county of Derby. M. Vireidler saw one in 1719, weak indeed; anti in which the colours could hardly be discerned. — M. Muschenbrook saw one also in 1729, but no other colour except white was discernable. A yellow- lunar rainbow was seen at Isselstein in 1736. It is mentioned, in tine, in the Jour nal of Trevoux, of the month of August 1738, that one had recently been seen at Dijon very well coloured, only not pos sessed of the same vivacity of tint as those formed by the sun,— Win/wilt Courant, Oct, 184 LORD BYRON. . . „ . • As every thing yelative to this great, ornament of British Literature ►must be interesting: to the country, we extract the following account of his last illness trent the pamphlet published by Colonel LEicEsTEit Sy.tsnorc, as well as 'his account of.a dispute with his Lordship respect-. ing the restitution of an English, boat captured by a Greek cruizer ve -4 : r .f a ct i. rd B n Y is lt l o 4 : rd •a s • h as ip se w if t e s d s , it o t n ing the in lt y i r n o s o ta n? t 'an w d ith jes a ti s n e g i with Parry, hut his eyes and his brow occasionally discoVered that lie was agitated by strong feelings. .O.:: a sudden he com. ph:tined of a weakness In one of his legs ; he rose, but finding himself unable to walk, called for assistance • he then fell into a violent nervous convulsion, and was placed upon my bed : - during this period his face was much distorted. In a few mi. notes he lssgan to recover his senses, his speech returned i and he was soon well, though exhausted with the struggle. Ili* Piedmontese surgeon and Dr. Miiiingen both assured me that the fit, though of a dangerous character while it lasted, was not so in its conscquonces. During the 'fit his Lordship was as strong as a giant, and after it he behaved with his usual firm ness. I conceive that this fit was occasioned by over-excite. ment. The mind of Byron is like a volcano, it is full ,of fire, wealth and combustibles • and when this matter cornea to 'be strongly agitated, the explosion is dreadful. - With respect -to the causes that produced this excess of feeling, they.are beyond my reach, except one great cause, which was the provokipg conduct of the Suliots. Lord Byron had acted towards them with a degree of generosity that could : not be exceeded ; a nd then, when his plans were all formed for the attack of Lepanto, ' and his hopes were raised on the delivery of Western Greece from the inroads of the Turks, those ungrateful soldiers de manded and extorted, and refused to march till all was settled to gratify their avarice. This was enough to agitate any heart warm in the cause of Greece. • • • " I said the affair was conducted in a bullying manner, and not according to the principles of equity and the law of nations. His Lordship started into a passion, Ile contended, th at l aw , justice, and equity, had nothing to do with politics. That mv be; but I will never lend myself to injustice. His Lordship then began, according to custom, to attack Mr. Bentham. I said, that it was highly illiberal to make personal attacks on Mr. Bentham before a friend who held him in his high esti mation. lie said, that he only attacked his public principles. Which were mere theories, but dangerous ;—injiious to Spain, and calculated to do great mischief in Greece. I did not object to his Lordship's attacking Mr. Bentham's principles ; what I objected to were his personalities. Ills Lordship never real toned on any of Mr. Bentham's writings, but merely made sport of them. I would, therefore ask him what it was that he objected to. Lord Byron mentioned his Panopticon as vision.. ary. I said, that experience in Pentisylvania,•at Milbank, &e. had proved it otherwise. I said, that Bentham had a truly British heart ; but that Lord Byron, after professing 11. bcral principles from his boyhood, had, when called upon to net, proved himself a Turk. Lord Byron asked whas proofs have you of this ?—Your conduct in endeavour ing to crush the press, by declaiming against it to Mavrocor dam, and yotir general abuse of liberal principles. Lord Byron said, that if he had held up his finger he could have crushed the press. I replied, with all this power, (which, by the way, you. never possessed,) you went to the Prince and poisoned his ear., Lord Byron declatmettag..inst the liberals whom lie knew,— But what liberals? I asked. Did he borrow his notions of freemen from the Italians ?—Lord Byron. No ; from the Ilunts, Cartwrights, &c. And still, said I, you presented Cartwright's Reform Bill, and aided Hunt by praising his poetry and giving bins the sale of your works. Lord Byron ex claimed; you are worse than Wilson, and should quit the army: I replied, I am a mere soldier, but never will I abandon my principles. Our principles are diametrically opposite, so let sea avoid the subject. If Lord Byron acts up to his professions, he will be the greatest;. if not, the meanest of mankind. Ile said he hoped his character did not depend 'on my assertions.— No, said 1, your genius has immortalised you. The worst could not deprive you of faire.--Lord Byron. Well; you shall see: judge me by my acts. When be wishe.l me good night, I took up the light to conduct him to the passage, but lie said, What ! hold up a light to a Turk ?" MIL FAUNTLEROY. It was appointed to remove Mr. FAuNTLEttor from the House of Correction, Coldbath.flelds (where he has been hitherto confined); yesterday afternoon at four o'clock ; but in consequence of a very protracted visit to him by one of his legal advisers, the removal did not take place till n.quarter. past tive.
