The States of Bavaria are going to receive a new organisation, by which several new districts will be formed, each containing. 75,000 inha bitants, instead of 15,000, as they bad before. These districts will have henceforward the ad ministration of criminal justice, and the Tribu nals of those districts will have the management of civil causes. The Police will be separated from the Courts of Justice, by which means pro ceedings will not be protracted as they have been. 1/ nuastui OCT. 12.—According to the regula tions in vigour relative to the establishment of domestic chapels and oratories, no private build ing or apartment can be set apart for the exer cise of any kind of worship, without a special Permission from the Government. It being his Majesty's intention that these regulations shall b e strictly enforced, the Governor of the pro vince of Liege has just invited the local authori ties to send him a list of all the oratories or chapels authorized in the community, with a spe cial reference to the licence, and all the es tablishments of the same stature where Divine Worship continues to be celebrated on mere re ferance. resO u liatfsms, OCT. 14.—His Majesty arrived h ere yesterday evening.

ITAYMARKET.—The Comedy of The Rivas was repeated last night, but with some variations in the performance since our last report. Instead of FAR REN, the part of Sir Anthony Absolute was assigned to DOWTON, whose excellence in general though he is at times somewhat too luxuriant, requires no eulogium. Miss KELLY was all that could be desired in Lydia Languish. Mrs. W. WEsT, who performed that part before, last night was the Julia, which is more suited to her talents, and in which she was interesting and pathetic. A Mr. RAYMOND, from Birmingham, was intro duced, in the character of Faulkland. His per formce was by no means acceptable to the audience, but as he will probably not repeat it, we shall forbear all comment on the occasion.— Mr. Dm., from Edinburgh, appeared in David. He was favourably received, and deserves a sta tion on the London boards.—A very good house. THE SILK TRADE. Every day affords new proofs of the advantages that will result from removing all restrictions on trade. The silk trade has been increasing ever since the last new measures respecting it were adopted, and has now arrived at a degree of prosperity unknown for many years preceding. It wag predicted by many sensible me mbers of the trade, on the adoption of the new legislative provisions, that the time was not far distant when English manufacturers would be able to surpass those of France in that commodity where it was before supposed that rivairy was out of the ques tion. There existed, it was felt, nothing but the injudicious system of duties to prevent our superiority over our neighbours taking place long before. In abundance of capital, union of capitalists, ingenuity of artists, and that v-ry important point the security of propet ty, there can be uo comparison. Those who know nothing of the interior of France, will, perhaps, hardly cred t, that at the last election for the Chamber of Deputies, a manufacturer residing at a village iu the south, who I►ad interfered ac tively to procure the return of a liberal deputy, was in consequence marked out for Miniiter:al retribution. His ruin was easily effected by the turning a stream of water that ran through his premises, by which his machinery was put in motion, and this being done under the plea that the rivers in France are Royal property, no re dress could be obtained, nor was it attempted, by an appeal to the courts of law. That most important article labour is higher, we under stand, at Lyons than at Manchester. But England, we hear, is shortly to reap the ad vantage of emigrations of French manufacturers, some of whom are of the first class. We know already of an instance of the latter description, whose arrival may form an ;era in the commercial history of this country. This Gentleman, who has for many years conducted a silk -manufactory to a large extent in France, has determined on forming a manufactory on a large scale in this country, for the fabric of silks after the French manner, and on giving to it the aid of his own practical experience. Ile found no difficulty in uniting himself with individuals capable of ad vancing the requisite capital ; a partnership is already formed, assistance is proffered from one of the first capitalists of the city to an almost unlimited extent, and large manufactories are erecting in Norwich and Manchester. The result of this experiment will be regarded with much interest by the trade in general.—(Times.) 'rhe Committee of Management for the late I Musical Festival at Newcastle-upon-Tyne have been honoured with the public thanks (through the medium of the local newspapers) of his Grace the Duke of NORTIIUMIIIIRLAND, and the other Patrons who attended that celebrated meeting, " for the very excellent and judicious arrangements made by the Committee on the occasion of the festival." The exact amount of the receipt for the six performances at the church and theatre was 3,8461. (the proceeds of the Ball 3261. 10s. not being available), so that the sum left for the several charities will be 7691. 4s.

LOUTH QUARTEri SESSIONS, OCT. 14.— ' flee trial of Lord Clermont, for the assault on the boys (Mansion), was heard before —Hamilton, Esq., Assistant Barrister, and the following Magistrates : — Lord Roden , S ir E. Bellew, Rev. G. Finlay, Rev. Sr.A NVright, George Foster, Erq., Turner Mann, Esq., &.c. His Lordship pleaded " not guilty."--- After the evidence had been gone through, and the jury ad dressed by Mr. Hamilton, they retired for about 20 minutes, and returned with a verdict .of Guilty. The Bench retired twice to consider the sentence, after which his Lordship was ad dressed by the Chairman, and sentenced to pay a tine of 101. on each of the two indictinenta..—(Dub/i .. ,Evening Post.) ACCIDENT. —Saturday evening last, at the Adelphi Theatre, an accident happened to Mr. PAYNE, the principal vocalist at that establishment. Mr. PAYNE was in his dressing-room adjusting himself, preparatory to the performance of a grand chorus In Va l mondi, in which he sustains a singing character, when it was announced that the period had nearly arrived for his entrance; Mr. PAYNE quitted the room, and was proceeding down stairs but not being thoroughly acquainted with the structure Of the place, in snaking a turn, he was precipitated headforemost to the stage, and a severe cut was inflicted on his nose, from which the blood profusely flowed. The performance, however, could not he delayed; and he was °bilked, in his bleeding state, to enter the stage with a handkerchief before his face, to wipe away the blood which was perceptible to the audience; but, notwithstanding the unpleasant dilemma in which he was placed, he sang with his usual ability. Yesterday afternoon, as Mrs. SMITH was nurs ing her infant in Palace-row, lligh-street, Mary_ lebone, the child sprang from her arms, and fell in the court underneath. It was dreadfully bruised and the right arm and leg fractured ; the skull was much injured, and little hopes are en ! tertained of its recovery. THE KING.-(CABINET COUNCIL) Wiwnsott, OCT. 19.—The announcement that his MA JESTY would this day hold a Cabinet Council in the State Apartments at Windsor Castle, excited an unusual degree of interest. Shortly after twelve o'clock the Cabinet Ministers began to arrive, and from that hour until two o'clock, the town presented that animating scene which the arrival of numerous equipages, containing the most illustrious statesmen of the pre sent day, may be supposd to create. At half after two the ap proach of the Royal cortege was announced ; and shortly af terwards the procession entered the limits of the borough.— Two outriders, dressed in splendid State liveries, and followed by a park-keeper, habited in the forest livery of Lincoln green, preceded the Royal carriage In this sat his Majesty, who, we are happy to state, appeared in the full enjoyment of excellent health, and acknowledged with the greatest affa bility the loyal reception which he received from the inhabi tants, The King was accompanied by the Marquis Conyng. ham, and Gen. Sir S. Hulse. The Royal carriage was escort ed by a party of the 2d Regiment of Life Guards.—Sir Andrew Barnard and Sir Hilgrove Turner followed in a second carriage, both of which were drawn by four horses, with the postillions in full 'taw dresses, and two more out riders closed the procession. On his Majesty's arrival at the Castle, he was received the Lord in Waiting, and conducted up the grand gothic staircase to the King's Audience Chamber, where the Council were assembled. —Among the Cabinet Ministers were—the Duke of Wel lington, the Earl of Liverpool, Mr. Canning, Mr. Peel, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer. After the Cabinet Council his Majesty held a Privy Council, at which attended, in addition to the above, the Duke of Dorset, Lord Maryborough, &c.— The Prussian Minister was introduced to his Majesty, and delivered his credentials of office, which were graciously re ceived. The Austrian and Swedish Ambassadors had audi ences of his Majesty. After the business of the day was concluded a splendid cold Collation was served in the King's Presence Chamber; and shortly after four o'clock his Majesty returned to the Royal Lodge in the same state as graCed his ar rival, where he entertained a select party to dinner. A Guard of Honour of the Grenadier Guards was stationed at the en- trance by the Gate Tower, who saluted his Majesty with the customary honours. This morning his Grace the Duke of Wel lington arrived at the Royal Lodge.—Mr. Dabs, one of his Ma jesty's private Messengers, arrived with dispatches from London last evening.—We are sorry to state that her Royal Highness the Duchess of Gloucester has been seriously indisposed during the two or three last days. Her Royal Highness passed a good night, and was this morning much improved. It is the inten tion of her Royal Sister the Princess Augusta to remain at Bagshot Park until the Duchess is completely restored to health. IMPROVEMENTS IN THE Tows.—After his Majesty had determined upon the general improvements and alterations of the Castle, the inhabitants of Windsor immediately be gan to consider the propriety of beautifying the town. — During the past summer building speculations of a consi derable extent have been commenced, and are now carry ing on with great activity. The extensive nursery ground, forming the eastern entrance to Windsor, opposite his Ma. jesty's Little Park, has been obtained by Mr. Agar upon a building lease of eighty years, where it is the intention of the lessee to erect sixty houses of a superior description. A plan has been determined upon, .from the design of Mr. C. Hollis, whose architectural talent has been fully exemplified in the New Church and Bridge. The proposed line of houses will front the London road, and will he erected upon a modern and elegant model. The centre of these buildings will be a superb pump-room, to which the waters from the chalybeate spring lately discovered in the Great Park, will be conveyed in pipes. This improvement has long been subject of con sideration, and will now shortly be acted upon. It will tend greatly to the benefit of the town. Windsor will then have to boast, not only of its majestic palace, fine promenades, and delightful scenery, but waters which have been proved for their medicinal qualities equal to those of llarrowgate. This is a speculation of some magnitude, and we doubt not will amply repay its projectors. FASHIONABLE. A RRIVA LS.

MARGATE, OCT. 18. --Our visitors nre diapers ing fast and our theatre, our only public amusement, will soon close. In justice to our Maaager, it must be admitted, that he has not spared labour, expence, and activity, to deserve, as well as obtain, public patronage. Miss MACAULEY is gone to lloulounge, to give her own entertainment. Among the female performers the Manager's wife deserves particular commendation. He also engaged a Miss Coo rcE, a very ele gant young actress, whose Belvidere and J ane Sh ore have been particularly admired. The venerable Gaiorrn, who was himself a good actor, and is a very go)d critic, says, that Miss CooitE'S Jane .Shorc in particular was one of the most affecting he ever witnessed. The Manager, with his usual liberality, has engaged little BtraK E , whose wonderful skill on the violin, and clever performance of Tom Thumb ex cited so much surprise and applause in London. We have had bad weather, but it has not danipml our spirits, and good hu mour has predominated in all otbr private circles. al , 3t 4 . _ .• * ' ' ''' -' ' A ' -- -* •,:"` ,' 4 , .

In August last the property in question was missed from the house, and the prisoner absconding, created strong suspicion against her, she, however, was never heard of un til yesterday evening, when she was met in the Strand, and apprehended.—Mrs. Norman requested her to produce the du plicate of the coat, and from her pocket book she pulled out several tickets, but one in particular, which witness wanted to see, the prisoner put into her mouth and swallowed, saying, there, you shall not see it. The prisoner, on being called on for her defence, declined saying any thing ; she was commitud. SPORTING INTELLIGIiNCE. NEWMARKET SECOND OCTOBER MEETING, 1824. TUESDAY, OCTOBER 19.

The greatest praise is due to Mr. Charles Va vasour, chief officer of the coast Guard, and his boats crew, who instantly went, at the risk of their lives, to render every assistance in their power. He was happily so fortunate ati to save one man, and Mr. Chris!), farmer, rode into th e s ea on horseback, and with great difficulty saved another, when quite exhausted, from a watery grave. One of the boatmen got hold of Capt. Williamson by the arm, and had hint almost in the boat, when the sleeve of his jacket gave way, and being com pletely exhausted, though a good swimmer, he tank to rise no more.

DUNDEE, OCT. novel tWeCtacle was yesterday exhibited in this neighbourhood; one of those sights termed " a steeple chase" among sportsmen, or a horse race front the top of Dundee Law to the top of Kilpurnie-hill, one of the Sidlaws. Kilpurnie is distinguished by a tower, once used as an observatory, which crowns its summit. The distance is a straight line, between the Starting Point and the gaol, is about seven miles and a half ; but the shortest practicable route nine or ten miles. Notwithstanding the day was exceedingly cold and very windy, a great concourse of s p ecta tors on horseback and a foot were attracted to the spot. The race commenced at half-past twelve o'clock. Three horses started. They be longed to the lion. W. Mettle, 111. P.; Colonel Fotherinham, of Powrie ; and R. Douglas, of Wigton. Mr. Douglas rode his own horse. A mingled sensation of admiration, astonish ment, and tenor, was instantaneously felt, when, at the given signal, the horsemen dashed off down the Law, speed of the wind. The summit of the Law is upwards of 500 feet above the level of the Tay, from which it is distant about a mile, and its brow is rather steep and precipitous. Two of the horses took nearly a bird's flight course; Mr. Douglas a more cir cuitous one, availing himself of the turnpike road for some miles. He was first in, having rode the distance in 36 minutes, and distanced the others by a mile. We understand that the colossal statue of Lord MELVILLE has arrived iu town, and that it will soon be placed on the top of the column in St. Andrew's square ; it is in pieces, and as we ane informed, about fourteen feet high.--( Edinburgh Paper.) BOXING. The great battle between Noale, the Streatham Youth, and Bob Baldwin r 11 7 hitrAtad ) took place yesterday on a desert piece of ground to the aouth.west of Virginia Water. The man are celebrated boxers, rind the fineness of the morn ing attracted some thousands by every sort of conveyance to the scene of action, 21 miles from London. Neale first arrived in a humble post chaise with his second, Harry Holt, and Ws backer. Huh came on the ground in a splendid vehicle and four, with Mr. !Jayne, his backer, Mr. Jackson, and anutker gentleman ; Cannon on the box, and Cribb and Spring in the dickey. The men set-to soon after one o'clock. Holt and Ward seconded Neale, and Cribb and Spring seconded Bob.. Betting guineas to pounds on Neale. I. At stripping, [lob, one of the finest muscled men ever seen, seemed to have been rather fine drawn, or in other words over trained. But little mist:Lief was done ; Nettle placed a good hit upon his adversary's jaw, and threw him ; Bob's head fell upon a bottle at the verge of the ring, but no mischief ensued. 2. Neale placed blows left and right upon the head and body, and both went down from a close. l% Bob hewed first blood from the lip at setting to, and hia eye-lids were upon the quiver. Ile was hit two facers with the left hand, from which ground was broke. In a rally Bob nnpp'd a heavy hit on the side of the eye which lacerated it. In a close both fell, Neale undermost. 7t04 on Neale. 4. A severe round, with much equal fighting. Bob placed a severe straight left-handed hit upon the prominent part of the olfactory organ, from which claret flew in profusion. Neale was thrown. 5. Neale bled most freely from the smeller, which saved his ogles from being useless. Neale placed a left-handed blow on the throat, and threw his adversary. G. Neale seemed rather abroad, and hit with his hands open. It was a scrambling round, and both were down. Even betting. 7. Bob got a heavy fall after a close,when attempted counters missed. The force of the fall was such,that Neale's head upon the over-reach made a dent in the earth. O. Altogether a scramble. Bob placed an innocent bit at the body, and Neale went down. 9. Neale placed a rattling hit upon . Bob's ribs, which re. sounded round the ring, and he fell over-reaching himself... Some murmurs. 10. A rally to the ropes, and both were floored. 11. Neale ran fob down. _ 12. Bob placed a severe hit upon his adversary's mouth, which besprinkled the claret merrily about the ring, and flowed down the breast of the receiver. Neale hit at the same time, but his counter missed. A manly rally followed, to the advan. tage of Neale, who got his adversary upon the lock in his iums, &hewing superior strength, but he hit Bob in going down.— Cries; of Foul I" but the umpires did not think so. 13. Neale had decidedly the best of a manly * fighting round. He out-fought his adversary with the left hand , , and'delogett his nob in blood, breaking ground after each hit. Bob was thrown by strength out of the ropes, or rather out of the ring. 14. Neale repeated his tactics of bitting at the head, with the left hand s and breaking away, until Bob was too groggi6ed to do mischief, and he fell weak,-3 to lon Neale. 141. Both heads were bleeding freely ; Bob got the piper wl:b him, and seemed to have lost his strength of hitting nut Neale was getting blind of the right ogle. A manly rally followed w hich produced fresh contusions upon the head ; but Neale's strength and better fighting gave him the beat of the round. Id. Bob recovered a little and behaved bravely. The best round in the battle was fought, and in 4 rally Bob received a tremendous right handed blow on the cheek bone. The round ended by Neale throwing his adversary. 17. Neale placed his left handed hit upon Bob's nob. He 'ducked his head, and was thrown. 10 and 19, Scrambling rounds, and both too weak just now for Intended mischief: 20. A severe round to the advantage of Neale, who agttin grassed his adversary. 21. Another severe rallying claret spinning round ; but Bob went down very tired. ~• 22. Neale placed a severe left handed blow upon Bob's eye, and with the right he gave Min another severe rattler on th e ribs, which bent him, and the eye was fast closing. Ne a l e rill weak. 23. A scrambling round, and both down. An hour had elapsed at the close of this round. 24. Nettle lacerated Bob's eye severely, which set the claret flowing profusely, and V revented blindness. Neale fell in . mak ing second play. Bobs friends began to find it was the Royal Exchange to a trading teasel. From this to the 29th round Bob stood up manfully to be hit and floored, and although to the 86th round he tried every effort to win, yet the further he tried the worse he fared; and Cribb gave in for hint after one hour and 13 minutes. RE IU AIIKS.—One thing satisfied the whole ring, that the men did their best. Bob cut ilia well, to use a milling phrase; but he wants touch practice betbre his bravery can benefit hint much. Ills best, and in short his only fiote, is a quick and straight left handed bit at the head; but ins rallies are mere terambles and he stands too erect (and WAWA some of that superabundance of action which Nettle possesses too muck of) to be forcible in :A ministering hard blows. Neale is the better fighter of the two, stands well on his legs, and is an expert finisher of round*. lie is a very heavy right-handed bitter, and means nothing_ but defeating. We never could sec that Bob had the best of any two rounds in the fiAt. WYNNV.EI THE 111118TOL , YOUTIT ANT) SPXNCEII.
