HYAM, PANTECHNETHECA,3 6 ,GRACECHURCH-STREET, CITY. GLOB E.—The improved Simi; of the country, far as its peac and security were threatened, may be attributed to two circumstances. The first is, we think, too manifest to admit of rea sonable doubt. There was •no widely , extended conspiracy, the object of which would have been to arrange a simultaneous rising, and precon celled attacks upon property. This obvious ab sence of co-operation enabled the Government. and local authorities to deal effectually with time corn motions, and to suppress them with comparative ease, and at a trifling loss of life among the. misguided people. To impute any part of the disturbances, now hap pily suppressed, to au arrangement entered into by the master manufacturers to lower the rate of wages, in order to provoke their work-people into a general strike, in the hope of fomenting an insurrection, is really so monstrous, that— farm liar' as we needs must be with the absurdities into which the virulence of party hostility will impel those who unscrupulously commit themselves to its guidance-- ; we could hardly have predicated anything so utterly absurd and wicked even from this sufficiently fertile source. Yet this is the new cuckoo note of the Tory journals. Without alleging a single fact in corroboration of a statement which involves a charge so grave,, that it ought not to be hinted at without " con firmation strong as proof from Holy Writ," viz., that of having involved the country in tumult and brought it to the verge of an insurrection, this charge is recklessly made against men, Whose property would have been the first to fall under the fury of the multitude; because the first which would have presented itself' to their view, and as belonging to those whom they had been taught to regard with dislike as making theMselves rich by paying inadequate wages to their starving Operatives! If there Were any necessity for repudiating so foul an ac cusatitin by any other evidence than that which arises out of its owe absurdity, it would be fbund in the fact. we have stated, that no plan was ob served in the movements of the insurgents. The ea tent of the disturbances proves the prevalence of discontent, the result of deeply-seated and widely-spread distress and suffering among the amasses of the population. But there was no plan—no plot—no conspiracy—no general un derstanding, by which a simultaneous movement Would have been ,directed towards one common object, for the purpose of accomplishing a well understood and general design. STANDARD.—The disorders in the manu facturing districts of the north appear to be vir tually at an end, as tar as the working . classes are concerned. The labourers are rapidly re turning to their employment in all the places recently disturbed, and apparently returning in no ill-humour. In South Wales, however, a strike for wages has been commenced ; but this, as it is plainly an imitation of whitt has occurred in northern counties, will doubtless complete the copy by a prompt and peaceable termination. The Chartis, - s e verywhere continue their meet ings and their mischievous noise; but, deserted as they sire by the populace, they are again contemptible. Some of our respected Con tempo. ttries complain of a want of energy and deci: , ion (ni the par t of time Governme n t, and say, perhaps truly, that by prompt and sharp measures the Movement might leave been checked earlier, and With less of injury to th e r i oters themselves. This is' a . complaint in which we cannot join. Our readers Will be so just as to remember that, tit the commencement of the affair, and befbre it Was possible for us to know what course Sir R. Peel's Government would pursue, we strongly urged' the propriety of that very course which has been adopted; our approbation of the same course now cannot therefore be ascribed to any disposition to flatter the Government. It may be very well to say that the promptest and Most vigorous measures are always, in the end, the: safest, and the most just. And so they I are when pal have to deal with incorrigible traitoFs--so.perhaps they may be when, tyrant like, you are indifferent to the temper of the people. whom you coerceo• But in repressing the excesses of a - moral and really well-disposed People at bottom, an alacrity of rigour is the re verse of politic, for it is sure to end in making enemies of those whom you did not find such. Again, our Governnient is not a tyranny which can affect to despise the feeling of any consider able portion of the people; and whatever the presen gain of acting with promptitude and deci sion, it,is infinitely overbalanced by the ultimate injury of acting with unnecessary harshness. LAW INTELLIGENCE. BANKRUPTCY COURT, August 22. IN THE MATTER OF THOMAS HAYES. The bankrupt in this case had carried on an exten sive business as a currier and leather-dresser, in Shad -4ell. The amount of debts which appeared in the .4hedule was stated at 7,9401., and the available assets, so far as the assignees had at present realised, was drily about 4701. Phis day having been appointed for a proof of debts, and auditing the accounts, several creditors *eared in person, and ,tendered proofs in the aggre gate amounting to about 2,0001. A point was raised with respect to a sum of 2,8001., to which it was alleged the bankrupt's wife was en titled, under the will of a person named John Price, and the Learned Commissioner ordered it to be re served until evidence could be adduced to establish the tact of its being available to the estate, or settled by deed upon herself. After some further discussion, the final examina tion of the bankrupt was ordered to stand for the 29th instant. CEN TRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT. These sessions, which are the ninety-fourth since the Act passed establishing the Court, and the tenth of the present Mayoralty, commenced yesterday before the Lord Mayor, the Recorder, Aldermen Farebrother and Gibbs, the Sheriffs, & c . 'the calendar contains a list of no less than 359 prisoners, and the following may be considered an epitome of the crimes with which they stand charged: Arson, 1 ; Bigamy, 3; Burglary, A ; Uttering and having in possession counterfeit coin, 3 ; I? el o - niously uttering counterfeit coin, 4; Embezzle ment, 13 ; Forgery, 4 ; Housebreaking, 2 ; Larceny, 200 ; Larceny in a dwelling-house, 9 . From the per - son, 30 ; Larceny by servants , 54 ; Manslaughter, 2 ; Misdemeanours, 6 ; Murder, 3 ; Pe rsona ti ng a per son to procure wages, I ; rape, 3 ; receiving stolen goods, 9 • robbery, 6. Of this number, 49 have been committed from London, 273 from Middlesex, 1 from the Admiralty, and 17 from Surrey. The Grand Jury having been empanelled and sworn, The RECORDER proceeded to deliver his charge to them. He said the calendar comprehended a list of nearly 360 prisoners, and that number would probably be increased in the course of the present week to nearly 400. Among the graver offences were 51 cases o larceny by servants, and 9 cases of the re • ceiving of stolen goods, one of which was of a very important and extensive character. There were no less than six cases of felonies from the person; four cases of cutting and woundin g ; th ree c h arges o f t h e crime of rape ; and three for murder. The great number of criminals contained in the calendar might, in some respect, be attributable to the unusually long period that had intervened between the last and the present session ; but still, after making that allow ance, the number was extremely large, and he was sorry to add, the offences were great with which many of the prisoners were charged. In addition to these charges of felony there was a party who had been committed as for a misdemeanour, in which the party was charged with the crime of assaulting her Ma-' iesty. He would presently call the attention of the Grand Jury to the circumstances of that case, and he would advert to what had been laid down as the law with respect to assaults where no blow had been jives. He would also call their attention to the pro visions of an Act of Parliament which had been passed during the last session for providing for the flirther security and protection of the person of her Maje Sty: Upon consideration it perhaps might be more convenient that he should address himself to the last topic first. On the 16th of July last an Act. of Parliament passed for the further security and pro tection of her Majesty's person. The Grand Jury were aware, that in ordinary cases of, treason, where no direct attempt had been made upon the person of the Sovereign, there were many important formalities to be gone through for the • protection of the subject, which encumbered the proceedings to a great. extent, and required great nicety and care in the prosecution for high treason. This was re quired by the 39th and 40th of George the Third, and the present Act was intended to simplify and amend these Acts. As the --present case, however, did not fall within the charge of high treason,. he Would not further advert to those Acts, but would call the attention' of the Grand Jury to' the provisions of the Act that had been passed during the last Session. By the first clause of the sth and 6th of her present Majesty, chapter 51, it was en acted, " That the proceedings provided by the 39th and 40th of George the Third, in the case of parties guilty of an attempt against the person of the So vereign should apply.; but where the overt act of treason should be any attempt to injure the person of the Queen, the party was to be tried as if he had committed murder. The second section was however, the more important one,. and that to which he would more particularly advert that . section provided, that if any person should wilfully discharge, or attempt to discharge, or point, or aim any gun, pistol, or fire-arms at her Majesty, whether it contained or not any explosive material, or if the party struck at the person of the Queen, or wil fully threw anything at her Majesty, with intent to in lure or alarm her, such person should be adjudged guilty of a high misdemeanour, and, being convicted, should be transported for seven years, or imprisoned with or. without hard labour, at the discretion of the Court, for any period not exceeding three years, and during that imprisonment, if the Court should think fit, the party might be publicly or privately whipped. Ile had thus far adverted to the Act of Parliament, in order that it might properly be understood, although the -case he had been referring to, having been corn- Mated in July, did not come under its provisions. Many persons had supposed that the offence of assault involved some act of violence ; that was not the case, for according to the law laid down in " Hawkes' Pleas of the Crown," an attempt to strike, but not hitting the object; was an- assault ; nay, even the holding 'up . of the fist to a party had been held to be one. He would now advert to the circumstances of the case, with resp(og to the assault upon her Majesty. On the day in quest:on, when her Maj esty's carriage was passing through the Park, -a young , person was seen to take from his breast a pistol, point it towards the carriage, and pull the trigger, but from some cause or other the pistol did. not go off.' In that pistol was found some coarse powder, rammed down with wad ding, and had that pistol went off it would undoubt edly have constituted an assault, not only in point of law ; but with those aggravating circumstances of at tempting to take away the life of the Sovereign. He would not advert further to this charge, because if any question of nicety should arise, time Learned Judge who would try the prisoner might have that question brought before him and determine upon it. This, however, he would say, that he felt the case Was one which should be put in a course of trial before a Petit Jury. He had already referred to the fact that, in the calendar, there were fty-one cases of larceny, committed by servants, and it must' be remembered that the crimes of parties placed in- such situations, were greatly aggravated in consequence, of the dependence that was placed on them, and the easy means that were afforded to commit depredations. There were six cases of robbery, in two instances committed by soldier's with great violence ; there were also three charges of rape, two on the persons of chil dren under ten years of age, and one on the person of a young woman of the age of seventeen. The whole of these charges, although most important for the consideration of a Jury, for the safety of society, did not appear to him to involve any questions of difficulty or law ; but at the same time he could not but observe with sorrow, that while the Legislature had been removing the punishment of death for this offence, it had been on the increase, and more aggravated in its cha'racter. With respect to two of the cases, those of the children under ten years of age, he thought, looking at the depositions, the Grand Jury could not entertain a doubt as to the course they should pursue • but with respect to the other, it would be for them, looking at all the circumstances and probabilities of the case, to con sider whether they could place implicit reliance upon the evidence of * the prosecutrix ; but perhaps the safest course would be to put that inquiry into a train for investigation. He would not advert to the charges of murder, because their particulars involved no questions f law. The Learned Judge, after a short commentary upon the duties of Grand Juries, re mitted them to the discharge of those functions ids the law called upon them to perform. The COURT then proceeded to swear in the Petit Jury. Frederick Howe, 24, pleaded guilty to a charge of stealing 236 printed books, the property of her Majesty. Mr. Adolphus was instructed for the Crown, and in answer to a,question from the Court, the Learned Counsel stated that the prisoner was the son of a person employed in the office of the Board of Trade, and by this means he had access to the office, and took ad vantage of this to steal the property in question, which consisted of various printed returns for the use of the office, and which were, of course, of considerable value. The RECORDER sentenced the prisoner to be kept to hard labour for twelve months. A prisoner named Thomas Madly, who pleaded guilty to a charge of stealing some pieces of cloth, the property of his master, applied to the Court to order the restitution of some letters that had been taken from him by the policeman who took him into custody. The RECORDER asked what was the nature of the papers, and whether :they had anything to do with the charge made against the prisoner ? The constable, one of the City police, said they were merely private letters. The RECORDER, with some warmth, inquired why, as this was the case, they were detained ? In the first place they had nothing to do with the charge against the prisoner, and they ought to have been produced in Court, and delivered up to him. The policeman said, the course was to send such things to the chief office, where the description of them was entered in a book, and upon the expiration of a prisoner's sentence, he could get them, by making application for them. "he RECORDER—SO that if a person is transported, the property .is taken, and may never more be heard of. It 18 the duty , of an officer who may take any property from a prisoner, to produce it at the trial, and any officer who does not do so, shall not have his expenses, and I will take care that a representation of the fact Shall be made in the proper quarter. The papers were then produced, and handed to the prisoner. NEW COURT. (Before Mr. Commissioner BULLOCK and Mr. Alder man HOOPER.) Henry Gamble and James Johnson, two exceed ingly well dressed young men, were indicted for stealing, on the 16th August, twelve handkerchiefs, value 51., the property of a:gentleman residing in Corn - hill, named Silver. From the evidence of one of the prosecutor's shopmen, it appeared that on the day in Suestion the two prisoners came to the shop of Mr. ilver and requested to look at some stockings and cravats, which were shown them. From what the shopman noticed during the time the prisoners were in the shop, he was induced to follow them, but they made off, and the witness missed twelve handker chiefs, value 51. The Jury acquitted the prisoners of this charge. The prisoners were again indicted for stealing, on the same day, eight cravats, value 11., the property of Henry Drew May, a hosier in Newgate-street. From the evidence of a person named Barnes, who was in the employ of the prosecutor, it appeared that the prisoners, on the day in question, came to the shop of his master under the pretence of purchasing some articles, and while Gamble was looking at the goods Johnson took that opportunity of purloining the cravats. In consequence of the suspicions of the shopman, the prisoners were followed, and on being taken into custody the property was found on Gamble. The Jury found both prisoners guilty, and the COURT sentenced them to nine months' imprisonment and hard labour in the Giltspur-street Compter, the Learned Jndge stating that had the prisoners been known he should have felt it to be his duty to have passed upon them the sentence of transportation. Daniel Trade was convicted of stealing two save reigns, the property of John: Hay. From the evi dence,, it appeared that the prosecutor and prisoner slept in the same room at Bedford ; and that, while the former was asleep, the latter committed the theft. The COURT sentenced the prisoner to six months' . imprisOnment and hard labour. Mary Powell, a well dressed young woman, was indicted with stealing six pairs of stockings, a silk scarf, and a variety of other articles, the property of the Rev. Stewart Evelyn Foster, of Lewisham, whose cook and housekeeper she was. Mr. Doane appeared for the prosecution, and •Mr. Ballantyne deferded the prisoner. From the evidence on the part of the proseeution,• it appeared that' a few weeks ago the attention the prosecutor, and some of his servants, was called to wards the prisoner, in consequence of her locking her room door, and putting the key in her pocket, which was not her custom before her return froM Lincoln shire, where she had been with her master and mis tress. One of the witnesses stated that on Sunda•. the Ith - of-Augnst, she 'saw the prisoner go several times to the water-closet, where some articles were afterwards found to be concealed. Another witness stated that, without the knowledge of any one, she procured another key, and went into the prisoner's room to make a search, but she never made her dis eovery known to the prosecutor and his wife until the Bth of August in the interval, however, it appeared that owing to some whisperings among the servants, the prisoner went on the 6th of August to her mis tress, and complained that her fellow servants had conspired against her, and demanded that her boxes should be searched, which was not done. • • The prosecutor and his lady identified some of the articles produced as their property, which were found in the box of the prisoner. Mr. BALLANTYNE addressed the Jury for the prisoner at some length. The Jury, after considerable hesitation, and retiring for nearly half an hour, returned a verdict of guilty, at the same time strongly recommending her to mercy. The COURT deferred passing sentence, in order to enable the prisoner's attorney to get several witnesse3 from the country to give her a character. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. A HUNGRY MAN BREAKING LAMPS. —John 'Whit comb, a man with hardly any clothes on his back, and without shoes or stockings on his feet, was placed at the bar before the Lord Mayor, charged with wilfully breaking several lamps in Cheapside. A City police officer proved the charge. The prisoner in his defence said, I am starving, and am I to starve in the streets ? I am an American citi zen, and have served my country at the cannon'. mouth as well as the Consul, and I will not beg or steal. I was in an American man-of-war. The LORD MAYOR—Have you applied to the Consul ? Prisoner—l have, Sir, many times, but he can give me no relief. I have a pension due to me in America for long servitude, but I cannot get back. The LORD MAYOR—I do not believe your story at all. The American Consul is a very kind and humane man, and he would, I am sure, send you home if you were deserving of it. I shall, therefore, commit you for two months. A REGULAR VIXEN. —Louisa Turner, a young lady of very doubtful virtue, was put forward charged with the very lady-like offence of being drunk and incapable, and lying in the street. The officer who took her into custody proved the charge. The LORD MAYOR—What have you to say ? Pri soner—Why I say its all false. The LORD MAYOR—Where do you live ? Prisoner —What's that to you ; I shan't tell you. The LORD MAyorc—One month in the House of Correction. The prisoner then suddenly turned round, and with one blow knocked the officer down in the dock ; she was about to visit another ()Meer with a similar bit of pleasantry, when she was seized and he'avily handcuffed. She then addressed the Lord Mayor and said, " You are a pretty b— for a Lord Mayor. ain't you. This is pretty b— justice, and l'm to have a inont hfor you, von b-," turning to the officer with the intention of inflicting another blow, but he was prepared for his defence. The young lady was then carried out of Court kicking furiously. BO If S 77? E E 7 . SINGULAR CASI;.—A respectably-attired individual, who gave the name of Charles Win. Stringer Fitz gerald, was placed at the bar under the following cir cumstances : Richard Watson, of P 2, Whitecross-street, stated that on the evening of a day in April last he was looking into a print-shop in the Strand, when the prisoner came up to him, and, pointing at a particular print, said, "That seems a well done thing." Wit ness agreed that it was; and after some further con versation the prisoner said, "You seem a judge of these things ; I beg your pardon for asking you, but I am out of employ now, and I have a few very fine relics which I would dispose of for a trifle." Vs itness consented to go home with him and look at them. He then went witli the prisoner into a house in Stanhope-street, Clare-market, the door of which was open, and followed him up stairs. There was a light in the room when witness got up; and seeing a picture hanging against the wall, wit ness said, " Is that one of the pictures you were talk ing of ?" The prisoner answered directly, "B— your eyes ! I've got no prints ; what are you going to give me ?" Witness said he wasn't going to give him anything. The prisoner then said, "ril shoot your b— head off, if you don't give me all the money you've got." Witness eventually gave him ls., which he was induced to do through fear. Wit ness then turned to leave the room, when4he prisoner seized hold of him, tore his shirt, and coaf, and small clothes, and said he would give him in charge for an unnatural offence, if he did not give him more money. Witness then went down stairs, and the prisoner followed ; almost immediately on getting into the street witness saw a policeman, and gave the prisoner into charge ; the prisoner like ise charged witness. The prisoner was committed from this court to take his trial, witness was seized with illness and went into the country, and during witness's absence in the country, the bill against the prisoner having been thrown out, he was liberated. 'Witness now brought the prisoner up again on the same charge. Police constable Still, F 60, took the prisoner into custody last Saturday evening, at the Ship tavern, in Chandos-street. The prisoner, when called on for his defence, said that he was committed from this office on the above charge to take his trial. The Grand Jury ignored the bill, and he was discharged by proclamation. Ile imagined he could not be tried twice on the same charge. Mr. TWYFORD said he was wrong. The Grand Jury having ignored • the bill the prisoner never had been tried before a Petty Jury, and consequently was liable to be committed again. If he had been tried Wore a Petty Jury that would not be the case. He thought it very proper that the wisoner . had been brought before him again, as the charge was a very serious one, and as there were other parties concerned he should remand the prisoner till Saturday next. WORSHIP-STREET. A young, man, named George Henry Tucker, who stated himself to be a porter in the service of Messrs. Batley, oil merchants in Barbican, was charged before Mr. Broughton With having wilfully destroyed a :copy of the printed notice issued by Mr. Hall, the Chief Magistrate, prohibitory of unlawful. and seditious meetings. Police Constable, N 184, stated that he was on duty in the New North-road, Hoxton, on the preceding afternoon, when he saw the prisoner standing amongst a group :of persons reading the notice, which was posted on the side wall of the toll-house. The pri soner walked away when he had perused it ; but after proceeding a few paces, he returned back, an d delibe rately tore down the lower part of the bill, at the same time exclaiming that it was " a mischievous nuisance that ought to 'be pulled dowr . Witness immediately took him into custody, upon which se veral of the bystanders protested against his inter'e rence, but the mere respectable portion of them ac companied him to the station-house, and eut . )lauded him for doing his duty. In answer to the charge, 'the prisoner denied his having been actuated by any factious motive in pulling clown the bill, and said he merely did it to supply hiMself with a piece of waste paper, of which h,, hap pened to be in want. Mr. BROUGHTON said that the expressions he gave utterance to on tearing down the notice were wholly . at variance with his present improbable statement, and he should require the prisoner to enter into hij own recognizance in 50/. to appear at the Sessions to answer any charge that might be preferred against him. HOP IN TELL I tiENCE. appearnwe the hops have made considerable improvernent,. although they do not come out so much as might be expected . from the fine weather. The duty is variously laid, but generally the opinion is in favour of 500,000/. CRANIMOOK..--Our plantations are now generally out of burr, and in' several places have a bright and promising appearancet but owing to the extreme dry state of the ground they are not expected to' acquire the state of perfection as in some seasons. A small plantation of what are called Colegates, on a rich soil, near this town, is not perhaps .to be excelled in Kent, for quantity both of bine and hop. MAIDSIONE.—The bine looks well and healthy, but very scanty. In one or two grounds the mould is perceptible, but not to any great extent. Taking the 'Weald through, the probability is that not more than half a crop will be realised. ELECTRICAL SOCIETY. AUG. 16. 1842.—Read, first, a letter from Walter Hawkins, Esq., Member of the Electrical Society, F.S.A., &c., relative to the Non-protection of Public Buildings in the Metropolis from the Effects of Lightning. 2dly.—On the Formation of Ferric Acid by Voltaic Action, by Mr. G. Mackerel, Member of the Elec trical Society. 3dly.—An Account of the Dissection of a Gym notus Electricus, by Mr. Henry Letheby, A.L.S. We, must refer our readers to the Transactions of the Society; for the manner in which the author of this paper - describes his reasons for believing that the gymnotus derives its electricity from the brain and spinal cord, and that the nervous and electrical organs are identical. The paper was divided into three parts —lst, the anatomy of the fish; 2dly, the electrical properties ; and, idly, whether the former afforded any clue to the comprehension of the latter. The anatomical division went to show that the electrical organs were not superadditions of a peculiar structure, but the result of an increased development of the aponeurtic intermuscular septa. The second division of the subject had relation principally to the experi ments of Williamson, Humboldt, and Faraday, on the Mmnutus, and to those of Walsh, Todd, Davy, ittebei, and others on the torpedo, which fully proved that the phenoniena of these fishl were anala -ous to those of ordinary electricity. The third di ;slim of the subject, whether the anatomical investi gation offered any explanation of the phenomena, was disciissed at some length. The two principal facts resulting from dissection were, that in all electrical fish, there were organs made up of a aponeurotic septa, containing an albtunino-gelatinous fluid, and these were largely supplied by nervous branches, the supply, indeed, being much greater than the wants of the part for the purposes of life. The author concludes his paper with the following deductions :-1. All vitality is the result of chemical action—electricity is the re sult of chemical action ; 2. The vital force in motion effects combination (nutrition and reproduction), and decomposition (muscular action, &c.) —electricity in motion effects combination and decomposition ; 3. During the perforthance of the vital functions, elm-. tricitfhas been detected - in warm-blooded animals. Electricity sent along nerves gives rise to phenomena in . the living organism not to be distinguished from vital ; 4. The phenomena of the gymnotus and torpedo have been proved to be electrical, and reasons were adopted for showing that these emanated from the brain and cord. MANI: F A CTURED GOODS FOR EXPORT.—The al most total suspension of business itl Manchester during a second week has almost stopped the transit of goods in tended for shipment Very few have been sent off, and vessels have either been prevented from sailing or have been delayed beyond the appointed time by the non-ar rival of goods. Business in Manchester will. it is hoped, be resumed to-day, and trade run once more in its accus tomed channel.— Liverpool Albion. We have learnt within the last few days that Lord John Russell has signified to Lord Palmerston, in an swer to representations made by the latter, as to the ne cessity of the Liberals advancing with the popular feel ing, that, closely connected as he (Lord John Russell) is with the Bedford family, he could not consent to be a party to further reform ; and thatetherefore he thinks it were better if the Opposition would 'Jut* out for some other leader before the ceminencement of another Par liamentary campaign. —Morning Adver. tiser. • THE AGE or INTELLECT.—On Tuesday evening last, a " grand hoax" and act of swindling was .p2ayed off on the credulity of the good folk of the town of Penrith, in Cumberland, by a swell-mob-raise-the-wino. blackleg, calling himself Wainwight, the greatest magi cian in the world. He caused a number of hand-bills to be circulated through the town, setting forth that he would perform several incredible tricks, never before attempted by the most learned of the Magi ; among which was, that he would cut off a man's head, without his ever knowing or feeling it, and replace it again. In the evening the audience attended, at the large assembly rooms, in the Duke of Devonshire's George Inn, kept by Mr. John Watson, from whom he received two shillings a piece ; and the time to commence the performance having arrived, Wain‘vright left the door, where he had robbingbeen the money; and proceeded behind the scenes, and all were gaping on the tiptoe of expectation; but, alas ! the curtain was not drawn ; and the company getting impatient, the magician was frequently called, but never made his appearance. On examination, how ever, it was found that he had fled down stairs, a nd made his escape out of the town. taking with him about 51., leaving the room, his lodgings, and the printer's bills unpaid. Afterwards the magician was seen on the road to Kendal, making his way with all speed. CAPT. MARRTAT.—The reading public will be delighted to hear that they are about to be presented with a new work of fiction from the pen of this popular writer, which is announced for publication anti the Magazines, on the Ist of September. This forthcoming production is called " Percival Keene," a title which seems to promise that the hero is a. sort of antithesis to the well-known " Peter Simple." If this really be the case, the Gallant Captain's numerous readers will doubtless have to congratulate themselves on as great a store of amusement as was derived from the adventures of that universal favourite "Peter" himself. In many points of excellence, as a writer of fiction, Capt. Marrvat holds high rank among our living authors ; but, in the humourous pourtrayal of the vicissitudes of life at sea, he is without a rival ; and as most of the incidents in Percival Keene's. career are said to take place on ship board, the admirers of the Captain's nautical sketches are likely to be gratified to their hearts' content.
