CHAMBERS and Sox in Bond-street. This alarm may be considered as one of the consequences of the lamentable failure in Beruers-street. Various ?amours prevail respecting the stoppage of yes terday, and, among others, it was reported that the Chief Clerk. in the House had been seduced by One of the new Banking Houses which have carted up, and founded their hopes on the ruins of terners-street. Iris certain that many unfounded and malignant rumours have been kir some days in circulation respecting the Bond-street Bank ; but those who are best acquainted with its con orris consider the suspension of payment as merely temporary, and that the proprietors have abundantly more than is adequate to answer all demands. Mr. Cu AM ',Ens, the principal, is un derstood to b e a t present t h e c hi e f propr i etor o f th e laliaa Opera House, which, according to report, has a losing concern to a considerable amount lest season. But by all accounts Mr. CHAMBERS is a rich man, and when all demands upon the nrm are adjusted, will remain so.

Goldsmith has c°llll Pleted his great undertaking of re g ihe Logan Rock ; it is now within a few " or its original situation.—(Exeter Paper.) THE THEATRES. DRURN LANE.—Mrs. YATES, (late Miss BRUNTON) by her repeated performance of Vio lante, in the Comedy of The Wonder, last night, fully justified the favourable impression which she had previously made, and proved herself to be a valuable addition to the comic strength of the theatrical corps of this Theatre. COVENT•GAILDEN.—The arduous part of Bel videra was. last night assumed at this Theatre by an Actress who has acquired considerable reputa tion on provincial boards, and last front Norwich, which has long bad the credit of possessing sound critical judgment and taste. So far as the re putation which has been acquired there by the lielvidera of last night, we are disposed to assent to the justness of Norwich criticism. The name of this new Actress is SLoMAN, and she is said to he a daughter-in-law of Mr. DOWTON by a former marriage. Mrs. SLOM AN is of the middle size in stature. Iler voice is pleasing in tone, when not exerted in passages that demand great energy. lier deportment evinced a knowledge of the business of the stage, and the general tenor of her acting implied a full conception of the author. We shall not at tempt to follow her scene by scene, with a ridi culous ostentatien of elaborate criticism, but content ourselves with saying that her perform ance was market! by uuntrected feeling and an animated portrait of the Venetian heroine. She was so well liked by the audience, that when Mr. EnEturost came forward to announce the play for this evening, there was a general call for the repetition of Venice Preserved, which, however, is postponed till Saturday. Mr. C. KEM B LE'S Jajier fully equalled his former merit in this difficult character, and Mr. You xa's Pierre was marked by all the spirit which be longs to this patriotic conspirator. We are glad to find that this Theatre adheres to the good old • custom of not letting the half. price visitors cuter till the close of the third act. We heartily wish, for the sake of the public as well as ourselves, that Drury-Lane 'Theatre would return to the same custom, for at present the half-price admis sion takes place at nine o'clock, and, however in teresting what passes on the Stage may be, a clatter and turbulence ensue, which totally de stroy the effect of the scene, and is consequently a great annoyance to the audience.—Tbe after piece was The Barber (y - Seville. Miss 111. 'l'ut•:E acquitted herself delightfully in Rosina as an actress, a singer, and a performer on the piano forte. It is but justice also to DURUSET to say that Ids Figaro was very creditable to hint as a lively actor, as well as a vocal Performer of science and taste. BRITISH INSTITUTION.

Nicolas, by Paul Veronese, by Mr. Cunliff, Landseer, West, and Miss Rom The original Pictures and the Copies are all arranged with the usual judgment, taste, and candour of Mr. YouNG, the Secretary. EXTRAORDINARY jEAT.—A few clays ego, two young chimney sweeps entering the burgh or Linlithgow from the cast, spied a new and tall steam engine vent, whose cloud-capt summit seemed to c hallen g e their Climbing powers. Quitting the high road, the young rogues entered the building, and contrived to creep up through the interior of the vent to the top ; and after performing many capers and gambols on " the speculative height," to the terror and amazement of the specta. tors, one of them suddenly executed a somerset, pitched down on his hands, and raising his heels in the air, continued to kick against the clouds for some time, with all imaginable ease. the vent stands detached from every other building, is seventy feet high, three feet diameter on .the outside, and eighteen inches within, so that our tumbler s had onl y a ledge nine inches in breadth to gambol upon. Certes, this surpasses the feat of the English sailors who astonished the land of Egypt, by carousing on the top of rompey's Piller.--(Ediribufgh server. ) THE KING, &c.

JOHN THE EVA NU Yesterday having been appointed for the consecration of the N oe th urc l i i n the IV a terloo-road, in the garish of Lambeth, a little after eleven o'clock the Bishop of NI inchester, the Din-, cesan, arrived at the church in his coach, suitably attended, and was received at the door by Dr. D'Oyly, the Rector , and a host of clergymen, dressed in their can o n icals. The Bishop was led to the vestry, where the Rector presented a petition, signed by himself, the churchwardens, and several other pa rishioners, praying that his Lordship wo!ild consecrate the church and burying ground. Lord..hip expressed his willingness to comply with their petition, and immediately commenced the ceremony, by walking along the centre aisle, followed by all the clergymen present, and .alter nately The the invocation appointed by the occa sion. rhe procession returned to the communion table, when the Rev. Air. Alarm, by the Bishop's command, read the title-deeds or the church and burying-ground, and the sentence iii e(mccr3lion, which latter was signed by the Bishop.—The morning service then commtneed in the customary manlier. The prayers were rend by the Rev. Dr. ilarrAr, and Dr. D'Oyly preached an appr o p r i ate sermon, a f ter w hi c h th e sa cram e nt was administer-el. The service being ended, the Bishop and Clergy in procer.sion walked from the Church to a large tent w hi c h was erected in the church-yard, which was then conse crated. The whole being concluded, the procession returned to the t. hurch, where they partook of refreshment ; and about three o'clock departed. The Church which is of the Doric order of architecture, is a spacious building, calculated to con. tain about a thousand persons.

The Shaiffs, with the City Remembrancer, afterwards pro. ceeded in their state carriages rlund the West end of the Town to invite the Foreign Anibassadors, Cabinet Ministers, the Officers of State and Householel, the Judges, and other persons of distinction, to the grand civic entettaimmnt to be given at Cuildhell on Lord llakor's Day next. On Friday morning at one o'clock, Master George Aspull, had a Concert at the Bull Inn. Assembly Rooms, Rochester, tinder the especial patronage of the Rigat Him. the Earl and Countess of Darnley, Viscount Clifton, Sir Robert anti Lady Mnorsem, Sir Archibald and lady Christie, Sir Edward and lady itlakeney, and Mrs. Cunningham. Public curio si.y had been considerably excited by his visit to Cobham i w h e re le. ~ vas retained to play for her Royal Highness the I D li t t ec l' ileAs K;ent, Princesses Fteklore and Victorine, and, suite. We need not say it war completely gratified by the at. tentiance of more than 150 of the nobility and gentry of this town, Chatham, and their vicinity,who shewed, by repeated ap probation, their sense of the merits of this extraordinary and in. teresting boy. In playing lio%chcles Variations on the Fall of Paris, anti a concerto by Czerney, he displayed powers so amazingly beyond his years and appearance, as to astonish and delight hi s n umerous a udience, combining the brilliant execu tion of fin ger anti touch with great depth of feeling and power ful expression.._( Kentish Chronicle.) It is a point of etiquette in the Royal Hunts, that no one be permitted to ride before his Majesty, for which purpose the puckers are appointed, to prevent a too near ap. proach to the person of the King. It happened, however, dur ing one of the chacea in the New Forest, that a young snorts matt, unable to govern his horse, rode past the late King, George the Third, and the heels of his horse threw some dirt into that Monarch's face; the prickera were on the alert to re sent this afl'ront, but his Majesty exclaimed, in the most good 0 natured manner, "Stop, atop !—never punish a maa for what he =not help."

POETRY. WANTED A HUSBAND! Th' advertiser's a single young lady, whose age Is 'tween eighteen and twenty—would suit gay or sage ; With the lively she'd laugh, with the serious she'd pore Unfatigued for whole day's o'er huge volumes of lore. Is not tall, is not short, is not fat, is not thin— Would not faint at a mouse—would not scold for a pin ; She can read, she can write, she can draw, she can sew ; Has an eye that can weep, has a heart that can glow. Some maintain she is handsome, while some say she's not ; All agree that gentility's cast in her lot. Then her ancestry's noble—but, ah ! well-a-day, He who looks for more dowry, will turn him away. She'd approve of a consort, nor handsome nor plain, No one younger than twenty her hand can obtain, Rather tall, and the better if dark be his hair, Born a gentleman too, known as such by his air. Whether serious or gay, must be wise, erudite, Patriotic and tender, refined and polite; A son of green Erin—none else need repair To woo this young maid at her Castle in Air. lERNE. THE SIX CLERKS. In the course of the proceedings in the Court of Chancery on Monday, the following conversation occurred :—An affidavit having been handed to the Lord Chancellor, his Lordship asked, " What is the meaning of • agent to a six -clerk,' which I see there ? 11'hat is his business?" Mr. Hart's client stated to his Lordship, that the agent was a person who manages the business for the si):-clerk. LOUD CHANCELLOIL—And what clues the six-clerk him self ? _ _ Solicitor.—Attends the Master. LoltD CuANcr.i.r.oit.—Then he is entirely out of the busi. ness of his own office : he tloes nothing in it? Solicitor.—Nothing my Lord. The Lotto CHANCELLOR (after a pause)..—When I came into this Court, the six-clerks were the most efficient7solicitors in the Court of Chancery. Some of the most eminent solicitors were clerks of that class, and used to transact their business, and draw up minutes with such ability, that we had few or no mo tions to vary minutes. But now the six-clerk abandons his business to a person who knows nothing at all about it. 'Tis no wonder, then, that delays have crept into the practice, which we formerly knew nothing of. However, before it proceeds further, take care that Solicitors in this Court shall be obliged to transact their business in person. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

THE GREAT FOOT RACE- The great race for 500 sovereigns, two miles, wits run on Bttrston Flat, near Northampton, on Monday. between Capt. Pewsey and Blewett, the celebrated runner trout the Stafford shire Potteries. The Captain, who is considered one of the fleetest men on his legs in the kingdom, received of his compe titor 200 yards at the end, and Blewett was backed at six to tour eagerly ; but the event came off' very differently from that at Doncaster last week, when it answered the London deep ones to take a lucrative journey of 160 miles, and the Londoners Ist Half mile . 2 26 were the principal backers of the P otter y man i n this instance.

At the finish of the first mile, which was run at extraordinary speed, the Captain WAS about 55 yards behind, and in the third half mile he lost about ten yards more. At the middle of the last mile he was much distressed, and his adversary made desperate play, and when the flag dropped at the runner coming in, the Captain was 85 yards behind, winning the match by 35 yards. It was the most interesting match of the year. GAME LAWS.—An important decision on the Game Laws occurred at the Antrim Sessions on Wednesday last. It was in the case of the King against J. Redmond, Gent., and was an appeal from the conviction of W. Clerks, Esq., of Steeple, in the fine of 51., for keeping and using a grey hound dog, defendant not being qualified according to law. ' Several objections against the appeal, and in support of the con viction, were urged by Mr. Davison, attorney ; but these were met by Mr. API/on:lel!, Counsel for the defendant, and were finally over-ruled by the Court. Mr. 111‘Donnell then called u ti p on on u t n h d e ar Ce d t i l r t to Act iin chap. 25, section 0 qualifies which dndant s . recites the 10th William 111., section 2 and 10, which' forbids e 27 Pa t 1 nOc l eo a Jury to try of e. any person having or keeping any setting dog or bitch, with out having a freehold estate of 1001. a-year, or a per sonal estate of 1,0001., or having a licence from the Justices as a trainer of setting dogs, under a penalty of Al. The Jury were then sworn, and the following issue was agreed upon " Whether J. Redmond be possessed of personal property to the amount of 10001. sterling—or be the son of an esquire--or be seized of a freehold estate, of the annual value of 1 001 . ster ling," After proof being entered into of the property and rank in life of defenclant's father, the Jury returned the following verdicts. —" We find J. Redmond qualified, being the son of an Esquire." The conviction was accordingly quashed. Mr. 111‘Donnell applied for costs, on the ground that defendant had been before fined, and on an appeal the conviction was reversed, and that this prosecution was more in the nature of a persecu tion than a _fatr application of penal statutes on a most unpopular subject.—Costs were refused.

Bnlowrosr, Nov. 2.—The 12th Lancers were reviewed by Lord Edward Somerset, on the Downs, to the west of the cavalry barracks, yesterday. The weather was humid and un favourable, and but few spectators, in consequence, were on the field. Lord Edward and his 'brother yet remain at the Royal York Hotel. AIILITARY FRACA9.—We are informed that a serious mis understanding took place in the course of last week between the commanding officer of the Scots Greys, now in the bar racks here, and the officer who is second in command. How the quarrel originated, we are not very exactly informed ; but we believe it was in the mess-room, after dinner; and that the junior applied to the senior officer terms which induced the ' latter to order him into arrest ; and we are told that he con. tinues in a sort of constructive confinement. At least one of the parties, it is said, has written to the War-office, to demand an investigation ; anti probably the matter will end in a court martial.—(Munehester Gnardiall.) Captain St. Leger, of the 14th Light Dragoons, was on Friday last complained of to the Magistrates at Exeter by the toll-gatherers of the Hahlon and Alphington gates, for passing the said gates in his gig on the fib of October, without paying the toll. The gallant officer stated that he considered himself as exempt, being in full uniform, anti on the line of march, and he was further borne out by the authority of Lord Edward Somerset, who hail intimated it as his opinion, on his late visit to Exeter, that no toll could be demanded. The Magistrates felt bound to convict on the same pounds as had been adduced a few weeks since in the case of Major Mills; the smallest penalty will be inflicted, just to cover the costs, viz. Ss. in each case, but it was in the power of the defendant to try the Issue Its a higher Court.—( _Exeter Alfred.)

MOST OUTItAGI E 0 U s A SSA U LT.—Christopher Felton was put to the bar on two indictments, for violently assaulting anti wounding four watch men belonging to the ward of Cripplegate.With. out, on the 10th of October last, while in the execution of their duty. ft appeared from the evidence of Hills, a watchman, whose beat is in Grub-street, about one o'clock on the morning iu question he desired two men and a woman, who were in Sun-court, to go about their busi ness, when they refused, and instantly com menced a most violent attack upon him.— He sprang his rattle, other watchmen speedily arrived, and a general conflict ensued. A nt u of men ran down the court armed with sticks, and beat the watchmen most unmercifully; two of them were so dreadfully bruised about the head and face, as to confine them from their daily labour several days. All the witnesses identified the prisoner as being the man who repeatedly struck them with a long stick. The prisoner de. tiled striking the watchmen at all. The 3 ury, with out hesitation, found him Guilty on both indict ments, and the Court sentenced him to six months imprisonment in the House of Correction for each offence, and to be kept to hard labour. John Foy and Ann his wife, who were also in the same indictment, not appearing, their recog. nizances were ordered to be estreated. H oot ", munn E ß.:—A few days ago an Inquest was held on the body of J. Ryan, of llallyvorneen. After the examination of five witnesses, a verdict of " Wilful Murder" was returned against the following persons :—P. Citsack, E. H a ll, J. Sheahan, P. Oleuane, Eleanor Ryan, wife to the de. ceased, and Mary Cramer, the servant maid, all of whom Mr. Balmer, with a party of his police, lodged in the county gaol that night. So horrible a murder as this has n ot di sgraced this c ountry for many years. After literally beating his brains out with a hatchet, and cutting him on several parts of the body with the same deadly weapon, they laid hint upon an immense fire, and, we shudder to relate it, actually roasted him. After which they buried the mangled body in a bog-hole, carrying it sewed in a bag about a quarter of a mile front the house. it is but justice to Mr. Balmer to mention, that it is owing to bill exertions that this mysterious murder has been detected. no has succeeded in establishing a ch a in of ev id ence which Will certainly bring conviction home to the guilty—abscrick Observer.)
