'lllll.lal QV'S 1)1CI1tli FALSUM AUDHAT Y LONDON, FR/DAY; JULY 30, 1824. We were anxious to believe the favourable recounts from South America, but from all the e►►quiries which we have made in the most re -1 pectable quarters, we have reason to fear that those Accounts were circulated for interested pur. Poses. We have received , the Paris Papers of, Tues ditY; Red the Etoile of Wednesday, from which •!Ctracts will be found under the usual head.— Etoile publishes from the Madrid Gazette reiterated assurances and statements of the suc ce Jul gained by the Royalists in Peru. The intelligence, however, of the great victory said to .have been gained by BOLIVAR, will, if it is confirmed, render the truth or falsehood of the accounts of anterior operations compara Lively unimportant. The news from Odessa in these papers is highly favourable to the cause of Grecian independence, though the soil of Greece has again been stained by the blood of her un armed children, barbarously butchered in cold blood by two armies of Asiatic Turks, who, revolting against their Commanders, and lathiting themselves with carnage and pillage, dis beaded themselves, and returned to their homes. 4 i1 . 1 strength of the Porte has, thus been Mate— . dally impaired ; whilst the advantage for Greece, though dearly paid for in the tears and desolation •: Of ItPart of her territory, has not cost her a single • soldier, and has left all means of attack and de . 'Plce undiminished. Accounts from Alexandria to 6 0ar the end of June, spew • that the boasted tifyptian expedition has not yet been embarked, 11 0 that the crafty PACIIA, as was originally sus. Pected, has only been amusing the Porte with Priiiises of co-operation which lie never se ',4"llY intend e d t o ful fi l. The submission of • ‘C o l.oco.ri toNt to the Greek Government is again • .alleged in these accounts ; and it is also stated • 014 C the Government has adopted the vigorous measur e of notifying that all transports and other • "illging, employed in the service of the Turks, 0 /' contributing to their aid, will he indiscrimi 4. "ell attacked, under whatsoever flags they may lull, by the Greek Marine. This threatening declaration has already had the effect of deter 91e captains of European ships from fulfilling their engagement to convey reinforcements, stores, 4 cC• &c. to the fleet of the CAPTAIN VACUA, and • i w fuid greatly cripple the naval operations of the *Remy. The surrender of Napoli di Romania to the Greek Semite, and the submission of CoLoco -1"1") under the guarantee of ODYSSEUS, are confirmed by the 11Ndra Journal of the 21st of June. We do not know that any thing in our opinion betrays a snore degraded state of party feeling than the attempts we occasionally observe in some of the public prints to throw ridicule upon the Members of the Royal Family who happen to differ from them in political sentiment, but we must confess that we were never more surprised than to see a paragraph in the Courier of last " t i ght reflecti ng upon his Royal Highness t h e 414 of SussEx for having condescended to ace 'Pt an invitation from the Loan MAYolt to ( Hite on board the Navigation Barge, as it is by " means unusual for Members of The Royal Par and other distinguished persons, to pay that tribute of respect to the City of London.— The Courier has generally shewn the sincerity of its professions of loyalty and respect for the Family of our Monarch by abstaining from this sort of observation, and we regret that it should iu this instance have put the sanction of its name to a system which, though it strikes more imme diately at certain branches, obviously tends to lessen the general respect and veneration for the whole Family. Upon the present occasion,how ever, as the observation was wholly uncalled for, we cannot but think the paragraph in question ori ginated in feelings of private and personal male volence, and was not intended to promote any worthy object or to serve any fair party purpose. Our Readers are probably all aware that Messrs. FRANKLAND LEWIS, LEstAr. FosTen, WILLIAM GRANT, JAMES GLASFORD, and AN THONY BLAKE, have been charged with a Royal Commission to inquire into and report upon the state of Education in Ireland. The matters into which they are directed to inquire are, 1. The nature and extent of the instruction afforded by the several institutions in Ireland, established for the purpose of education, and maintained, either in the whole or in pa rt,froot the public funds. x.The state of the diocesan and district schools, and the nature of the instruction afforded by them. 3. The parochial schools,and the regulations best adapted to them. 4. The best measures for ex tending generally to the people of Ireland the lenefits of education.—We sincerely trust that as a collateral means of " extending generally to the people of Ireland the benefits of education," the Commissioners will not deem it improper to inquire into the means by which the Irish peasantry may be so employed as that the fruits of their labour shall enable them to pay for their children's instruction. EARL FITZWILLIAM. — The statement copied from an Irish Paper of the death of Earl vrz- WILLIAM, is, as we anticipated on Wednesday, we are happy to state, unfounded. Letters have been received from the Noble Earl, of Wednes day, at which time his Lordship was residing at Wentworth House, Yorkshire, in good health. The Noble Earl had previously been at his seat at Milton, near Peterborough, which place he recently left for his more splendid mansion in Yorkshire. Letters have been received from Batavia, dated the 26th of March. They communicate intelligence of considerable importance. The duties on British manufactures had been raised in Batavia from 6to 35 per cent. This change had produced a great sensation among the merchants. Accounts had been received respecting Mr. THORNTON, the English merchant, taken by the pirates ; he was still detained at Ititti (Sumatra), and thoy_ refuetZ its let him depart under the enormous ransom of 40,000 dollars, about 8,0001. sterling Malacca has been declared a free port. The Earl of liAnnower, after attending the cabiinAt °Cann CqL Wednesday ' - everting, left town to proceed to tielleiiii - on - a-verrt—to-tit•lierq, Lord SaNnost, who is with his Lady on a visit to her mother, the Marchioness of BUTE. The Earl of LIVERPOOL left town on Wednes day evening for Coombe Wood. Yesterday, Mr. WILKINSON arrived at the Foreign Office with dispatches from Constanti nople ; also from Sir 11. WELLESLEY, our Am bassador at Vienna. The Council which has been holden for some time past at the Horse Guards, before which several witnesses are understood to have been examined upon a subject that has not been per mitted to transpire beyond the Officers of the Staff concerned, has closed its sittings. A letter from the Agent to Lloyd's at Con stantinople, dated the 4 25th of June, says—" A Proclamation has just been received by all the legations here, transmitted them by the Greek authorities, dated from the M ills of Nauplia, the substance of which is to declare, that knowing of many vessels under European flags having been freighted to the Turkish Government, as well it Alexandria as Constantinople, for the conveyance of supplies to the fleet, and for other ob jects, in the present contest, they are warned from so employing themselves, as being contrary to the neutrality avowed by their various Governments ; and it is consequently declared that ves sels and crews taken under such circumstances will be treated as enemies, and that orders have been given to sink, burn, or destroy them." A letter from the Agent to Lloyd's at Smyrna, dated June 10, says—" Since the 2d instant we are without any British ships of war in port. Yesterday sailed to join the Captain Pacha at Mitylene, a Turkish frigate and a brig of war, having under escort small craft, with about 6,000 troops: Report says a large force is destined to attack the island of Ipsara. We are sorry to say some disorders were yeste!tba committed by the troops : to-day perfect order and tranquillity is established." The Marquis of LANSDOWN has purchased the beautiful mansion on Richmond 1101, late belonging to the Marquis of ST Ar roam (who is about to make "West Wandsworth," once Mr. RUCKEILIS, his summer residence). This delightful spot was originally the site of the Richmond Assembly Rooms and Chalyheate Wells, and was occupied by the Marquis of WELLESLEY until his proceeding to the Vice royship of Ireland. MAD Door.—About eleven o'clock yesterday forenoon a large dog, between a mastiff and shepherd's breed, evidently in a state of madness, pursued by several persons, ran down Pleasant row, Battle-bridge, a small street inhabited chiefly by dustmen, nightmen, sweeps, and sca vengers. The cry of " Mad Dog!" caused every person in the street to run to their doors, and every house in the street had a dog all of whom ran out and surrounded the fugi- 1 tive " maniac dog," and in the tight he bit many of them. What to do with the dogs the owners did not know ; on which Tom Bon nor, a dustman, got a bell and rung it up and down the street, and called on the owners to as semble. They a ccordingly, assembled round a cart in the street, in which he sat as Judge, and a council was held, the result of which was, that sentence of death was passed on 15 dogs, which sentence was instantly carried into execution, though many women, with tears, begged to have the lives of their clogs spared, and they would keep them tied up for a month. THE KING, &c. Wsxnson, Jura 29.—Last evening his MAJESTY bad a splendid Dinner Party at the Royal Lodge : there were prese nt his Highness Prince Esterhazy, Earl and Countess Cowper, Earl and Countess Lieven, Lord and Lady Maryborough, who arrived in the course of the day, on a visit to his Majesty. This afternoon his Majesty left the Royal Lodge at one &clock ; the King drove out in the pony phaeton, accompanied by the Mar quis Conyngham, and was followed in a second by Prince Ester. hazy and Count Lieven ; the remainder of the Royal Party pro ceeded in open carriages through the delightful promenade, ex tending from the Royal Lodge to Virginia Water. His Ma jesty and the whole of the suite partook of refreshments (sent from the Lodge) on the lawn, near the beautiful lake, and afterwards return to the Lodge. Last evening her Royal High ness the Princess Augusts took an airing in her open carriage in the Great Park. FASHIONABLE CHANGES.

The father of Bmugham, it is well known, was proprietor of Brougham Ball, and a tine estate in the north of England, which still form the patrimony of family . .Ile was about to be married to a lady In his own neigh bourhood, to whom he was passionately attached, and every preparation had been made for their nuptials, when, to Mr. Brougham'. weat grief, his mistress died. To beguile himself of his sorrows, he deterinined on travelling, and came to Edinburgh, where, wandering about on the Castle hill, viewing the city ho happened to inquire of a fellow idler, Whets he could .lintl respectable and convenient lodgings.

Here Mr. Brougham forthwith proceeded to settle himself, and though lie did not at first contemplate a permanent residence in this city, he soon found occasion to make that resolution ; for falling in love with Miss Syme, who was a young Lady of great merit and beauty . t he abandoned all his early sor rows, and, espousing her, lived all the rest of his life In Edin burgh. Ile resided for some time after his marriage in Mrs. Syme's house; and here Henry Brougham, his first born son, first saw the light. Upon the building of the New Town, Mr. Brougham removed thither, and was one of the earliest inha bitants of the improved districts, living, in that house, No. 7, George-street, where other two sons were born. It is worth re marking, that the principal apartments of Mrs. Sytne's house, in the revolution to which all that part of the (Rd Town has been subjected, are now occupied by an old journeyman printer.

POETRY. LINES , . • To JAMES BOBERTSON, Esq. of e 4 atrine Vale, Van Dietnan's Land, on reading in The Ayrrhitie Courier the Birth of his Son.' On the verge of the world, while, my Jamie, ye stand, . 1 With your lambs playing round you, afar free auld Ayr; Methinks I now see you, with Phillls in hand, Breathing love's soft expressions to her and your heir. With your crook laid beside you, oh, say do you sigh For the scenes you abandoned, or friends left behind ? While the New World gives pleasure, and love, hope, and joy, Does the Old ever enter the self-exile's mind ? Oh, Jamie, come tell me, while round your ildeks stray, , And the sun gently shines on your far-spreading plains, Do ye think on the time that by Ayr we did play In the ball where the true hospitality reigns? Has your sweet Catrine Vale got an Ayr running by, On whose banks' shady umbrage your flocks can repose? Are its cliff's piled romantic, like ours, upon high, Where the sweet hawthorn blossoms, and rude thistle blows? If, Jamie, ye think on the bands ye hae met In the mansion where science and virtues combine, Ye canna the humble proud Bardie forget, Wha to far Australasia wad forward his line— A line that wad tell my dear Jamie in joy, That I hope his dear Bairnie his hopes will fulfil ; That he'll ne'er bring of sorrow the tear to the eye, ‘.` Nor be wanting hale breeks, aeon, and gude whiskey gill." And, Jamie, ye'r spouse I wad greet by the name Of a friend—still endearing love's joys may ye share ! May ye live to grow auld, and grow rich, and. come hame, With happiness crown d, on the Banks of Auld Ayr ! London, July 23, 1824. HUGH CAMPLIELIA. • This young Gentleman, whom I have the honour to rank among my friends, I frequently met at the house of his excel lent uncle, the scientific Proprietor of Catrine, in Ayrshire.— His emigration to Van Dieman's Land is wort hy of a fair page in the best age and records of romance. His abandonment of mercantile pursuits, and of the most extensive views of fortune, arising from his .wealthy' and' exalted family connexions in Glasgow, to become a shepherd on the plains of Australasia, has left his friends only one consolation, namely, that the " Gentle Shepherd" has taken more virtues to Van Dieman's Land than will counteract the vices of twelve cargoes of other settlers. FATAL EFFECTS OF PUGILISM. Yesterday afternoon an Inquisition was held at the London Hospital, before J. AV. UNMIN. Esq., upon the body of Jas. Wales, who came by his death under the following circumstances s—lt appeared from the testimony of several wit. nesses, that on Saturday, the 10th inst., deceased went into the Bell and Mackerel public-house ' Mile-end-road, where he and an Irishman of the nam e o f Neary, had a quarrel in the tap room. Neary left the house, and was followed by the deceased, who struck him several times, and challenged him to fight.— Neary desisted until they came to the top of the bridge over the Regency , Canal, where they both stripped and set-to. in the first round the deceased received a severe blow under the left ear, which dropped him as if he had been shot. He was picked up by his second, and appeared faint. In the second round, he received another blow on the ear, and in falling his head came with great violence against the pavement ; and on being taken up, he exhibited scarcely a symptom of life, and several persons present pronounced him a dead man, which so alarmed his antagonist, that he ran off, but was afterwards taken into custody by one of the parish officers.— A surgeon was sent for, who, after examing the deceased, pronounced him out of danger, and on his favourable opinion of the deceased at the time, Neary was set at liberty. The de ceased was afterwards removed to the London Hospital, where he lingered in great torture until Tuesday morning last, when he expired.—Mr. Adams, a surgeon, belonging to the Hospi tal, deposed, that he attended the deceased ; on examining hint when he came to the Hospital, he found a compound fracture on the right leg, near the ancle, and a slight contusion on the back of the head, but he did not complain of the latter, and, in his opinion, bis death was not occasioned by the fracture on the leg, but by irritation on the brain. The Coroner wished this matter to be explained, and asked Mr. Adams if the head had been opened? Mr. Adams it. The said it had not, that the wire•would n ot allow t. The Coroner, as , welt as several of the Jury, expressed their surprise that such a pretext should prevent the surgeon from doing that whiCh was so essential to the ends of justice; and the Coroner said, as the result of the verdict would depend on the evidence of the surgeon on this point, it was necessary that the head should be opened, and asked Mr. Adams what time it would take to do it ? Mr. Adams said it would take two or three hours, and at that moment he had an engagement that required his attend ance, but he would do it in the morning. The Coroner corn ' plied, and the Inquest was adjourned until this evening. LIVRILPOOL, JULY 28. • THE RECENT COACH AcCIDENT. On 'Wednesday last the case, of Coxon was heard before the Court of Quarter Sessions, under a bill of in dictment found against him by the Grand Jury on Tuesday after noon, at the instance of Brocklehank, charging that he, Coxon„ did, on the 12th inst., on the highway in Liverpool, 44 unlawfullye maliciously, and violently drive" his horses and coachagainst t its Bolton coach, and so did " overturn the said coach,' by mean, of which the said Brocklebank " was grievously hurt, bruised, and wounded, so that his life was greatly despaired of," &a. dce. Mr. LAWRENCE opened the case to the Jury, and called seven witnesses for the prosecution, who were ably cross-exa mined by Mr. Joy, and their evidence appeared to justify the finding of the bill by the Grand Jury ; but they could only speak as to their having seen the coaches just at the time of the acciden and not to their conduct on the previous part of the road. T h e w itness who saw most of the transaction stated, that the horses of the Nettle appeared to rush onwards, but he could not say from what cause, there being then much confu sion from an unruly bullock. Some of them concurred in stat ing, that they thought, .or supposed, the Wigan Union was " bearins• down," or " bore down" upon the Nettle; and two of the witnesses spoke as to a threat of the defendant, on a pre vious day, that tf the complainant continued to annoy and gallop against him he would upset him. . Mr..loy addressed the Jury on behalf of the defendant, and called his witnesses, several of whom were passengers on the Wigan Union, and one of them upon the Nettle from Liverpool, and others who saw the coaches on various parts of the road and at the place of accident. From their testimony it dearly ap peared, that, at the outset , when the Wigan Uniori stopped at Challinor's, near Seymour-street, the Nettle was driven between it and the footpath ; that the Wigan started first from thence, and the Nettle came up with it near the King's statue, and attempted to ,jostle, by which the Wigan horses were brought against a coal cart, and the Nettle (after grazing the hip of die off leader of the Wigan) got the lead, and kept it until it (the Nettle) pulled in to the left , and stopped to take up a p a ssenger at Millner'a public-house. The Wigan then got a-head, passed on the outside, and was proceeding in to the left to take up a passenger at the Green Man Still, who had engaged the box seat, and who had paid a man at Liverpool for keeping it for him to be taken up there, when the Nettle came up at a gr " eat rate, and, instead of passing on the outside, " trade a rush to pass Inside) between the footpath and the %%Igen, and then the accident 1,45 o pened. The defendant p u ll e d u p as soon as he could, got off, and went to see if he could render assistance, and was anxious to know if any blame attached to him. His Pas sengers thought not, and live of them came from Wigan and elsewhere to give their evidence to that effect. It was also prov ed, that on the morning of the same day, the complainant (as he had done before) threatened to upset the defendant. Thirteen witnesses having been examined for the defence, the ltvconosat rose, and the Jury appearing impatient, Mr. LAWRENCE concurred in the propriety of the case being closed (having been upwards of three hours in progress) without fur ther loss of time, and he therefore did not address the Jury, nor did the Recorder think it ileceasary to suns up the evidence. The Jury instantly returned, an unanimous verdict of—Not Mn.

VESsICL BW*74T,-111ontlay morning the greatest alarm prevailed in Shields harbour, in consequence of a tire breaking out on board the Ship' Cumberland, one of the Newcastle trailers. She was lying on the south aide of the harbour, near to the Mill-dams and was laden with a general cargo of meichandize, for London. About three o'clock intimation being yen that the vessel was on fire, measures were immediately t aken to re. move her, in order to keep her clear of the other Shipping. She was run upon the sand below Milburn-place, on the north side of the river, and her appearance was terrifically grand: The flames burst forth through the deck near to the mainmast, and spread to the rigging and sails with a fury almost inde scribable. A great number of boats were on the alert.; but from fear of the mainmast coming overboard, which took place about five o'clock, they were obliged to keep at a respectful dis. tance. A fire-engine was at length got to bey upon her, but the vessel was then so completely enveloped in flame, tJtit every exertion to save any part of her valuable cargo was fruitless. Ti' e whole of the 'easel is destroyed, except her twd Ades and one of her lower _masts. The amount of the damagreltits not yet been ascertained, but it must be very corisiderahle.. one gentleman alone had 2,0001. Worth of whalebone on hoed. It is not known how the fire originated : some conjecture' that it may have been caused by two keels of charcoal that mere ea board. ;•~~ '1 ' 1 '!'llE MA It ETS. ')lt'! , . .
