Bennett, London, 1835. 8 l lefore M r . R ose h a d reso l ve d on his present task, should have borne in mind the observation of Dean iseft, that c , in order to write well upon a subject, it always necessary to know some little ab out the utte r. . had he done so, he would not have corn the errors which, on a cursory inspection of l►ts we find to be of no unfrequent occurrence i 4 he it. , His very title-page betrays his ignorance , for „pu s hi s hi s t or y, " Historia Technica Anglicanw, „ s converting an adjective into a substantive. He t g ently meant to write " the Technical History o f 111-g`ande" but from knowing nothing of the Latin I 'i lla ge, he has substituted the word " English" for so that the passage actually reads, " the History of English"—or rather it h as no s.a n i d a 4 g at all. It is a pity to see an author, in these Ys Of f ih eneral education, volunteering such a d is p la y s -le ftpetency at the very threshold of his book. Mr. S a muel Drew, (late ediiOr of the " Irnperial Maga- Whose goo d opinion of his history he has pre 40etd' and apparently with infinite satisfaction, does lecot to be much wiser, for he repeats the blunder , = whe nce we infer that a gentleman may edit a ma.ga e v ery respectably, and yet be by no means a miracle 4 0 81 g a r, city. We wish that Mr. Rose's errors had . ho ped with hi s title page,' but unfortunately we find 1,6_ 4 , f ew, in the body of his work. Thus, in a brief • ""n to the Crusades, he says : 1 11 1e Turks who are descended from the ancient Scythiass, n g established themselves in Asia in the early ages, were qn st m a , t itlY, under successive Caliphs, adding some new c?n -420 their empire. About twenty years after . the taking jusalem b y the Turks, Pcter the Hermit, a native of Nitt i l ! l si in Picardy, visited the Holy Sepulchre, and beheld % r , In dignation the injuries and oppression to which the istian name was exposed in Palestine." t i n : l\l °w in th ese t wo s entences occur not less than 111:e pro o f s of consummate ignorance. In the first c, the aut h or i mp li es th a t th e Turks had gone out Of c their native countr y , Sc y thia, in order to settle them 41ves in Asia, apparently not knowing that Scythia is sia. He means, we presume, to say that they e stablisiied themselves in the Saracenic States in e arly ages _ ; but here also he is mistaken, for it was t he e middle ages that the Turks overthrew the Sa ' t h_ Secondly,' he talks of Turkish caliphs. Now th : -Curio had no caliphs ; the Soldan or Sultan was yhead of their government. Thirdly, he tells u s hf d erusalem was taken by the Turks ; but it happens I) l : r tunately for the truth of his assertion, that the u,ety was taken by the Saracens, and this at a When the Turks were nothing more than nomadic vagahondizing, each under its separate Khan, Al tol : desert. There are some other errors in the vo -11(it'l: "Peeially in the earlier portions, which we have Q i itt e r apace nor leisure to point out.

PRIVY COUNCIL. NOMINATION OF SHERIFFS. Yesterday being the morrow of St. Martin, the usual cere moot' of nominating Sheriffs for the ensuing year, preparatory to their being " pricked" for by his Majesty, took place in the Court of Exchequer. In the absence of Lord Althorp (now F.arl Spencer), who, as Chancellor of the Exchequer, would have presided, that duty devolved on the Marquis of Lansdown, the President of the Council. The Lords present were the Lord Chancellor, the Lord Privy Seal, the First Lord of the Admiralty, the Lords Chief Justices of the King's Bench, Common Pleas, and Exchequer, the Vice- Chancellor, and Barons Vaughan, Parke, and Bosanquet. These Hon. and Learned personages being Members of the Privy Council took their seats on the hench, and the other Common Law Judges at the table beneath. The usual oath, which it is known is in old Norman French, baying been administered to the members of the Privy Council and the Judges, the Judges proceeded to submit the lists, as delivered to them on their respective circuits. A smaller number of excuses than usual from serving this high and an cient office were tendered, and cf these but very few were ad mitted. The folloWing are those only which are ; worthy of netiee. The first claim of exemption was that of T. J. Metcalfe, Esq., of Roxton-hall, who was proposed to serve as High She riff of Bedfordshire. On this gentleman's name being read, Mr. Justice GASELEE said that Mr. Metcalfe 'wished to be excused on the grounds, first, of the very depressed state of agriculture, which had so greatly reduced his income as to render him ill able to maintain the dignity cf the office, and also that he was labouring both under bodily and mental debility. The LORD CHANCELLOR—ThiS gentleman's name cannot be taken off the general roll on account of the depressed state of agriculture, as that depression may possibly in a short time c ease. We cannot, therefore, admit this plea. The next excuse was in the case of Mr. Astell, who was proposed for the same county. This gentleman also pleaded the distressed state of agriculture, and that he was a Lieute nant-Colonel of infantry, and liable to be called out at any time; that he had served in Parliament twenty-six years, dur ing which time he was called upon to fill the arduous and im portant offices of Chairman and Deputy Chairman of the East India Company for a period of seven years, and he therefore submitted that on account of his public services he ought to be excused from the expense of the shrievalty. Their Lordships, after some eeensultation, said that, as in all probability this gentleman would not be called upon to serve for the ensuing year, there was no reason why his name should be removed from the roll. For the counties of Berks and Bucks no excuses were offered. Cambridge and Huntingdonshire.—To these united counties one gentleman pleaded exception, on the ground of want of sufficient education to enable him satisfactorily to perform the duties of the office.—(Laughter.) The other two gentlemen on the list also pleaded excuses, and their Lordships, after a short discussion, decided on allow ing the validity of those excuses in every instance, and the names of three other gentlemen were substituted. For the counties of Cumberland, Chester, Cornwall, Derby, Devon, Dorset, Essex, Glecester, Hereford, Kent, Leicester, Lincoln, Monmouth, Norfolk, Northumberland, Oxford, Rut land, Salop, Somerset,. Stafford, Suffolk, Surrey, Sussex, Warwick, Wilts, and York, no excuses were tendered, and consequently no alteration was made in the list. For the county of Hertford, one gentleman pleaded the ill •ness of his lady, which he alleged would prevent his attendance to the duties of the office. Their Lordships, however, thought the plea insufficient, and ordered his name to be retained. Northamptonshire.—Lewis Lloyd, Esq., pleaded that he was upwards of 60 and nearly 70 years of age. Their Lord ships ruled that, although that would be a good excuse from serving on a jury, it was none from serving the office of sheriff. Name retained. Nottinghamshire.—Mr. Baron PARKE stated that two of the gentlemen nominated had forwarded excuses to him—the first that he resided in Scotland, and the other that he was compelled to spend most of his time abroad. The Learned Judge added, that all he knew of the facts was from letters he had received from the gentleman alluded to. The Loan CHANCELLOR—It is probable that one of these excuses may turn out a valid one—we had better, therefore, retain the names of those gentlemen, and add two more for this county, in the list to be submitted to his Majesty. Mr. Baron PARKE—That will be a novelty. The LORD CHANCELLOR—There were four names returned in the lists for two counties last year. Mr. Baron PARKE—Then that was the first time. County of Southampton.—LOßD DENMAN said, that there had hitherto been great difficulty in obtaining the tiltmes of gentlemen to stand for this county. On the present occasion, however, no such difficulty existed, as he had received a letter from William Hughes Hughes, Ea q., M. P. for Oxford, who resided at Ryde, in the Isle of Night, stating that he was willing to wave his privilege of. Parliament, and was indeed anxious to take upon himself the office. The LORD CHANCELLOR—I do not think it competent in Mr. Hughes to wave his privilege of Parliament. A long discussion ensued between the Lords of the Council, but it was conducted in so low a tone of voice that not a word could be heard. The name of Mr. Hughes was, however, ordered to remain on the list. Worcester. Mr. Packington claimed exemption on the ground of being Chairman of the Quarter Sessions for this county. The LORD CHANCELLOR—Does he perform the duties in person ? Mr. Baron ALDERSON—Yes, my Lord, I know the fact of my own knowledge. Mr. Packington was therefore excused.

Privy Council held a meeting yesterday afternoon in the Court of Exchequer to nom!nate the list of persons to serve the office of sheriff next year in the English counties. The Lords present were Lord I.:.ncihurst (who presided in the absence of Earl Spencer), tie Lord Chancellor, the Lord President of the Council, the Lord Privy Seal, the First Lord of the Admiralty, the Lord Chief Justice of the Court of King's Bench, the Vice-Chan cellor, the Lord Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, Sir John Vaughan, Sir, James Parke, and Sir J. Bernard Bosanquet. Namick Pasha, the Turkish Minister, the Marquis of Lansdowne, and Lord Holland, visited Viscount Palmerston yesterday at the Foreign-office. The mail for the North American colonies will be further detained till the 15th instant. The United States Charge d'Affaires transacted business yesterday at the Foreign-office. Lord Holland and Lord John Russell had interviews yester day with Viscount Melbourne. BRIGHTON, Nov. 12. Their most Gracious Majesties continue in good health, and are almost daily in public. Yesterday, the King took an airing in his carriage with Lady Adelaide Hay, to Shoreham. The Queen took her favourite exercise on horseback, ac companied by a numerous suite, including Colonel Sir Charles Thornton, Sir Philip and Lady Sophia Sidney, Earl and Countess Brownlow, Lady Clinton, and Mr. Davis. The Royal cortege proceeded on the Downs, where they enjoyed themselves for nearly two hours, and then returned by the North entrance to the Pavilion. • Prince George rode out, attended by his tutor. The Princess Augustdwas also in public, accompanied by Lady L. Cornwallis. Sir Robert Otway, Captain and the Hon. Mrs. Pechell, Captain Fremantle, Sir Loftus and Lady Otway, and Sir Graham and Lady Moore, had the honour of dining last even with their Majesties. The Duke of Norfolk, the Earl and Countess of Surrey, the Earl and Countess of Clarendon, the Marchioness and Ladies Cornwallis, Lord and Lady Maynard,. and most of the Nobility and Gentry who were at the Palace. on Monday, called yesterday to pay their respects to their Majesties.. The boy whose thigh was broken by coming in contact with Mr. Emmit's carriage, is much better this morning. The greatest attention is paid to him by Sargeon Paine, under. whose care he remains. Earl Minto is in the departure-list for town ; the Earl and Countess of Beauchamp have also left. The Master of the Ceremonies' first Ball will take place on the 24th instant, under the patronage of the Officers of the Fusileer Guards and the Ist Royal Dragoons. Their Majesties will, it is expected, go to town on the 26th instant. The Duke of Wellington has appointed L a ieutenant Colonel Smart, late of the Royal Engineers, the deputy Lieu tenant Governor of Dover Castle, vacant by the decease of the late Samuel Latham, Esq. We understand that Sir Charles Knightley is al rcady in the field for Northamptonshire, and it is added that neither Whig, Liberal, nor Radical will be found sufficiently bold to oppose the worthy Baronet. —Morning Paper. A correspondent from Cambridge assures us that he fees confident that should Mr. s pring Rice succeed to the Chancellorship of the Exchequer , he will be returned again for Cambridge, notwithstanding the great strength of the supporters of Sir Edward Sudden. The Duchess Countess of Sutherland has arrived on a visit to the Duke and Duchess of Sutherland, at Tren tham Hall, Staffordshire, thence she will proceed on a visit to her daughter the Countess Grosvenor, at Motcombe House Dorset. Her Grace will not return to her castle of Dunrobin, near Dornoch, until the ensuing summer. On her way south her Grace stopped a few days at Douglas's Hotbl, Edinburgh. The Ottoman Envoy (his Excellency Namik Paella) accompanied by Captain Jones of the engineers, returhed on Tuesday to the Carlton-hotel, Regent-street, from a visit to the Government works at Chatham. Some interesting expe riments and displays of the art of attack and defence, under the direction of Colonel Pasley, were made before his Excellency. It is no small aggravation of the apprehended evils of the Poor Law Act, that its provisions are to be put in force at the beginning of the Winter. Where would be the harm, even now, to suspend its operation till the Spring, by which time its machinery will be better prepared, and the really poor in a better state to encounter its effects upon them ? The Bat* of England has, through neglect, expe.l riented; a robbery, which has already been highly injurious to several money-changers in Paris, and which must make all French merchants apprehensive in their negotiations with England. A clerk in the Bank has stolen a large quantity of good bank-notes not signed, and the signatures have subse quently --been forged. The money-changers in Paris, igno rant of the theft, have been the dupes of their confidence, having purchased notes to the amount of from 35,000 to 40,000 francs, which have been refused payment by the Bank. The public should be warned by this event and take no English Bank paper in future, until they are assured. that all the notes lately stolen have been presented—Gazette de France. Miss Landon is said to have adopted for some of the earlier scenes of her new work of fiction the roman tic and lovely land of Italy, and, judging by the title of her story, " Francesca Carrara," to have made her hero an Italian. This is as it should be. The genius of this accom plished writer fits her to develope the grace, the passion, and the sentiment which find their home in an Italian bosom, while her inventive powers are equal to the construction of d plot in harmony with the picturesque beauty of that radiant clime, and abounding with the mysterious and striking inci dents congenial to it. THE SUPERB.—There seems to be little ground left for hoping that the Superb steamer, respecting which so much anxiety has been felt, has escaped destruction. A house of the first rate respectability in Hamburg received this morn ing a letter from Norden, East Friesland, dated the 4th inst., from which the following is an extract :—" Information has just been brought me that at Juist the stern of a longboat has been found, with ' Superb, of London, Captain Ridden Major, painted upon it.' —Hamburg Reporter, Nov. 6. Lieutenant Arlett, commanding the ./Etna, has been directed to take under his orders the Raven cutter, Lieute nant Kellett, and proceed to Madeira and Teneriffe, where they will remain a few days for the purpose of regulating their chronometers; they will then continue the survey of the coast of Africa to the northward of Cape Bojador, after which they will proceed 'with the general survey of the coast, from Cape Bojador to the Straits of Gibraltar, and when finished will re turn to Spithead.—Devonport Telegraph. Tim WINDOW DUTIES.—It is not generally known that all persons assessed to the window duty are, by an Act passed the last Session of Parliament, empowered imme diately to open, free of extra duty, any additional number of iadows in their dwelling-houses. But if any new building be attached to a dwelling-house, or any communication be opened with any adjoining premises, the windows in the same will be charged with the duties already assessed. The same exemptions will apply to, persons not assessed, by reason of their being less than eight windows (exclusive of the front shop windows) in their respective dwelling-houses. Composition for window duties will entirely cease on the sth of April next. The above important exemption will prevent surveyors from making surcharges on such duties. • NEW SOUTH WALES...—Mr. Bennett's new work s 6 4 Wanderings in New South Wales, Batavia, Pedir Coast, Singapore, and China," is a. very valuable addition to the books which have recently appeared in New South Wales. It is full of information, which none but an accurate and enthu siastic observer could have collected. The details relate to every point of any importance connected with the colony, and these are brought down to the latest possible period. In his opinions the author is without prejudice, and we therefore re gard his suggestions, on whatever question, as highly important. Mr. Bennett's work is a journal of observations on every sub ject that presented itself, in a voyage out to New South Wales, and during his residence in that country. CORPORATION COMMISSION.—The Corpora tion Commissioners met on Tuesday at Fishmongers' Hall to in v.:stigate the affairs of the Fishmongers' Company. Mr. Alderman Wood, the Prime Warden, and several other mem bers of the Corporation, attended to give information. It appeared that this Company has no Master. The King for merly was the Master, but that practice having been discon tinued, no other Master had been elected. In the course of the inquiry Mr. Emmock, a liveryman, asserted that almost all the members of the Court were Dissenters, and that the Prime Warden himself was an Unitarian. Alderman Wood said, You know nothing about the matter, Sir. It is highly im proper to make broad assertions of this nature." The purchase money of a freedom in this Company is 105/. Nothing of importance transpired during the inquiry. WARD OF FARRINGDON WlTHlN.—Yesterday afternoon a Wardmote wa,s holden at the late College of Phy sicians, Warwick-lane; Newgate-street, for the election of a Common Councilman for the remainder of the year 'in the room of John Williams, Esq., deceased. Thomas Reny, Esq., the Alderman of the Ward, presided. The candidates oa this occasion were William Faulkner, Esq., an attorney (the clerk of the Sadlers' Company), and Mr. Geo. Bowles, salesman, of Newgate- street, and sole proprietor of the White Conduit House Tavern and Tea-gardens, Islington. The Alderman took a show of hands, and declared the election to have fallen unanimously upon Mr. Faulkner. A vessel is announced as about to sail from Li verpool, on a voyage round the world, in which cabin passen gers may be accommodated at 150/. ; and that similar trips are to take place every six weeks.

The race, of which the result and particulars will be found below, was suggested and made at Mr. Anderson's, in Piccadilly, and speedily obtained a long list of subscribers of high respectability, insomuch that a field of fifteen or sixteen good horses, with riders celebrated for their doings " across the country," was ensured. The time fixed for the event to come off was the 12th (yesterday), and the place, the Vale of Ailesbury, a spot peculiarly adapted to the purpose, as, independent of some galloping ground, it abounds with fences—none of the light sort of jumps, so fre quently selected out of compliment to the white-kid-glove• class o f equestrians, but regular raspers, accomplishable only by good cattle and resolute riders. For the accommodation of those who lacked either the " appliances" or the disposition to "go with them," the line of country was taken as near to the turnpike road as possible, so that a good view of the race was afforded for the greater part of the distance. Ailesbury, till now a stranger to meetings of this description, was fixed upon as head-quarters, and here, on our arrival yesterday morning, we found a very numerous assemblage of amateur and professional sportsmen, as well as a strong muster of fashionables. The town was on the qui vivo through out the day, which was as fine as the most inveterate plea sure-seeker could desire. Before entering into particulars of the race we should state that it was for a sweerstake of 15 sovereigns each, p.p., with a fifty-guinea cup added ' • the dis tance four miles, and the umpires H. Peyton and J. Fielding, Esqrs., two gentlemen well known in all the sporting circles for their experience on the Turf and in the Field. The ground was chosen by them on the Bicester road, and was, as we have before intimated, remarkable for its severity—it is barely possible, indeed, that a more trying four miles could have been selected. The starting point was Wadston Mill, about four miles and a half from Ailesbury, the winning-flags being planted in a field close to the town, belonging to Mr. Brookes. There were no other flags, the riders having the privilege of. choosing their own line, with the church steeple as a very conspicuous and appropriate beacon. Nearly the whsle of the ground was grass land, and it included, besides several rises, some double fences with ditches, two lanes, and plenty of general fencing, a brook about a mile and a half from the start, and a river, of nearly eight yards wide, within a mile from home. • A little before twi o'clock the following horses appeared at :he starting-point : Marquis of Waterford's br. f. Lancet (rode by the owner) Mr. Geary's br. g. Pickle (owner) Count D'brsay's b. g. Ace of Trumps (a lad) Mr. Bainbridge's w. m. Laurestina (Mr. Allnutt) Captain Fairlie's b. m. Norna (Mr. Powell) Mr. Solloway's br. g. Enterprise (owner) Mr. Cowper 's b. g. Harlequin (owner) Captain Sheddon's ch. g. Phipps (owner) Captain Lamb's b. g. Vivian (Mr. Beecher) Mr. Tilbury's ch. h. Prosperer ( Mr. .1. Mason) Captain Clitheroe's bn. g. Fingal (owner) Mr. Elmore's g. g. Grimaldi (Mr. Bean) Mr. Bean's b. g. Dreadnought (Mr. Cardale) Mr. Anderson's w. g. The Flyer (Mr. Weston) Mr. Anderson's b. g- The Poet (Mr. Rice) Mr. Weston's ch g. Cottager (Mr. F. Nicholson) Mr. Yeasley's ch. g. (a lad) Mr. Smith's b. g. (a lad) Mr. Brown's g. m. Confidence (owner) Mr. Scotland's b. g. Glenartney (Mr. Cartwright) The odds were 4 to 1 agst Vivian, 6 to 1 aget The Poet, 7 to 1 egg Grimaldi, 7 to 1 agst The Flyer, and 8 to 1 agst Cottager.—The start took place at the time mentioned above ; ell got off fairly, but in a wide straggling manner, especially Lord Waterford, who took his line to the left of his competi tors, and quite distinct from them, which course his Lordship observed throughout. Mr. Yeasle's horse took the lead at a slashing pace, Norna, Phipps,Vivian, Pickle, Laurestina, The Poet, Grimaldi, Prosperer, and one or two others lying up ; in the course of the first mile and a half there were several falls ; Phipps's bridle broke, and two or three changes took place in the position of the horses. At this point there was a spinney, the first to get through which were Vivian, Mr. Yeasley's horse, and Norna, Prosperer and the rest being close at their heels. Prosperer was first out of the brook, and Vivian a moment after ; but in charging a gate in the next field (where two or three others received falls), he got a complete summer set. His intrepid rider, however, malgre bruises and scratches, was remounted in an instant, and was well up with his horses at the river. No one attempted to leap this, but all were up (Vivian, Norna, Laurestina, The Poet, Lancet, Glen artne y , Mr. Yeasley's horse, and Confidence), and dashed boldly into it. Laurestina was first landed on the other side, then Vivian, and after him, Prosperer, Norna, and Mr. Yeasley's horse ; but all dead beat, except the first two. Laurestina was lead ing till they came to a lane, which was enclosed between two tremendous fences, at one of which Vivian had another fall ; Mr. Beecher up in an instant, rode with great patience, drew gradual') upon the mare, caught her in the last field but one, took the last fence head and head with her, and then broke away, winning very cleverly by three or four lengths, and complet ing the distance under fourteen minutes. Prosperer was third, Norna. fourth, and Mr. Yeasley's fifth. Of the others we can give no positive account ; some cooled themselves in the river till they were dragged out ; and others, finding the inutility of any further struggle, got into the turnpike road and came home at their leisure, not one having escaped one or more falls. Altogether it was the most spirited and best conducted steeple chase that has ever been seen within fifty miles of town. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY.) (FROM LLOYD'S.)

It has been the burying place of the family for centuries. The tenantry will probably be invited to attend the funeral. On the occasion of the death of Countess Spencer, about three years back, who was brought down from London for interment at Brington, the tenantry, to the num ber of about 400, mounted on horseback, met the body at Queen's Cross, near Northampton, and followed in procession thence. The body was first taken to Althorp House, and after a halt of about an hour, conveyed to the church, the then Lord Althorp and the Hon. Captain Spencer following as Chief Mourners. The approach to the church from Althorp House, after quitting the park, is in great part between rows of noble lime trees. The vault is situated in a kind of chapel or recess to the north of the altar, and there are various monuments around of members of the family interred there before the Spencers were raised to the Peerage. The living is in the gift of the family, and was bestowed by the late Earl on his son George, who resigned it on becoming a convert to the Roman Catholic creed. It is now held by the Rev. Mr. Rose. The church is of great antiquity. INJURIOUS EFFECTS OF VINEGAR.—That vine gar is destructive to the human stomach is known by its effects on plump healthy females, who, from a silly desire of looking delicate, that is sickly, swallow daily large draughts of vinegar. This innocent practice only ruins the digestive faculties, and thereby deprives the system of its regular nourishment. The only standard of beauty is high health.— The Orpcle of Health. EGYPT.—The wonderful antiquities of this interest ing region have for ages very naturally excited the curiosity and stimulated the research of the enterprising, of almost every nation. The country has, accordingly, been visited by 'a succession of travellers, all eager to bring to light treasures which have been buried for so many centuries. Many of these individuals have found a grave in the prosecution a their la bours. Others have met with insurmountable obstacles in pursuance of their object. But no one ever possessed such unusual facilities as the late Henry Salt, who for many years filled the important office of Consul-General. Independently of an unlimited permission to excavate, the estimation in which he was deservedly held by Mahomed Ali, procured him infor mation and assistance not available to any other traveller. Hence the recently published memoirs of Mr. Salt, which, of course gives a copious account of his residence and travels in Egypt, may be considered one of the most instructive as well as entertaining biographical works which has appeared for many years. A. ludicrous circumstance lately occurred at the theatre at Market Drayton, Shropshire. The company were performing Pizarro, when, during the " Hymn to the Sun," the lights being placed too close to the transparent scene of that luminary, it unfortuately took fire. The manager, who officiated as the High Priest, just after singing the words " 0 power s upreme," observed the mishap, and in the utmost con s t ern ation, called to the stage-keeper, " The sun's on fire " then proceeding with the hymn, " 0 power supreme !" " You rascals put out the sun, I say " The sun, however, continued to blaze. The audience, notwithstanding their fears, were convulsed with laughter, and it was not till the fire in the sun was extinguished, that the play could proceed. INCENDIARISNI IN BEDFORDSHIRE.—On Mon day evening, about six o'clock, the second incendiary fire within a week in this county broke out on the farm of Messrs. T. and R. Cook, occupying Town's-end Farm, at Steppingley, near Ampthill, part of the domain of the Duke of - Bedford. Two barns, two cattle-sheds, a quantity of barley and oats, the produce of forty acres, and three stacks of hay, were de • stroyed or rendered unfit for consumption ; the buildings were burnt to the ground. The design of the incendiary was happily frustrated, as the property was amply insured in the Suffolk Fire-office. It appears that one of the Messrs. Cook is churchwarden, and the other overseer, of the parish ; con jointly with a near relative, they occupy another farm, called Steppingley Park, altogether having under their charge be tween 300 and 400 acres. They are working farmers them selves, and consequently have not occasion for more than four or five labourers, which appears to have given offence to the unemployed paupers, some of whom are allowed 35., some 2s. 6d. a week to maintain a wife and family. The next day the local Magistrates had a meeting, but nothing occurred to warrant the detention of any party, although some suspicion fell upon a man who works in the neighbourhood. HEAVY GALE AND DAMAGE OF VESSELS. (From the Greenock Intelligencer of Saturday.) We mentioned in our last that the weather had for several days been exceedingly tempestuous. On the morning of Thursday a change took place, and we had a most beautiful day ; but Friday was ushered in with heavy rain and a gale of wind from the north-east. As the day advanced the wind increased, until about ; two o'clock, when it blew a perfect hurricane, and the storm continued to rage with unabated violence till about six o'clock, after which it gradually subsided. The scene from the Custom-house quay about five o'clock was awfully grand, the sea breaking over the quay with great violence. The damage done to the shipping is immense. We subjoin a list of the vessels injured, particularising the extent of the • damage, which we have been at much pains to ascertain exactly. The brig Czar, of Greenock, from Quebec, which was at anchor in the roads, dragged her anchors, and came in contact with the brig Essequebo and the barque Hope ; the Czar's starboard and larboard quarters were stove in, and some of her planks on the starboard side chafed and broken. The Essequebo had her windlass torn away, and the copper and sheathing torn off her side by coming in contact with the quay ; her starboard quarter and stern were stove in by the Czar. The spectators who assembled on the quay to render assistance to these vessels were at times more than knee deep in the water. Indeed, at one time several of them were thrown down, and narrowly escaped being washed off the quay. One of the chain cables by which the Essequebo was fastened gave way, but not before it had nearly torn away the pall to which it was fastened. The ship Camden, of London, which arrived a few weeks ago from Canton, broke from her moorings, and drove up between the old Dry Dock and the Fish Market ; the copper and sheathing on her starboard side were nearly all torn off, her quarter boat was staved, and the ship herself otherwise much damaged. The ships Mary Sharp and Glasgow, lying alongside the Dry Dock, were slightly injured by the Camden coming in contact with them. At the Mid Quay, the brig Mary Ann had her stern stove in, and her larboard quarter gallery smashed. The Hercules steamer, in coining into the harbour, lost her funnel, and the bulwarks on her starboard bow were carried away. The ship Trinidad had her star board quarter stove in, her garboards smashed, and the bulwarks and stanchions on the starboard side knocked in. A boy, named Andrew Anderson, belonging to the Trinidad, when assisting to put some fenders be tween her and another ship which lay alongside, fell down, and was crushed to death ; his legs and ribs were broken, and his head dreadfully smashed. The brig . Corsair had her stern injured. The brig Mary had her quarter stove in, and the bulwarkS and stan chions carried away. The Ann .Grant had her stern slightly injured by the bowsprit of the Mary. The paling of the timber yards between the New East Quay and Mr. Steele's building yard are all washed away, and a lighter • driven up among the timber, but she is not much damaged. Great injury has been done to the fishing boats and small craft at. the Mid Qua , y. The paling of the timber yard oppo site Mr. Ramsay's ropework is also demolished, and tile embankments of stone still farther to the westward are shattered in various places. A great part of the wall in front of Mr. Angus's house, Bay of Quick, is thrown down, and the whole coast bears marks of the fury of the waves. So violent a storm has not, we be lieve, been witnessed for many years. THE STORM. (From Stewart's Despatch.) In consequence of the uncommon heavy rains and high winds on Thursday night and yesterday, the river doddea became so swollen and impetuous in its course as to overflow its banks in many places. Several bridgos on it have been either swept away entirely or considerably damaged ; Ball's-bridge, - particularly, one of the most frequented outlets from this city, has been totally destroyed by the floods. A new bridge has been begun here, and a wooden one, recently erected, was to remain standing for the temporary convenience of the communication it afforded between Dublin and Kingstown. There is no part of either now visible, except the foundation of the abutments intended to support the arches of the lat,b , commenced building. Over these the mauntainous•tcrrent was dashing yes terday in foaming eddies, and occasionally invading the precincts of its narrow banks, The bridge of the railroad, a little further down, has also been injured, and it is conjectured that this accident will prevent the opening of the works at the time calculated on. The bridge at Clonskca too has been destroyed, and about 50 or 60 yards of the parapet of the new Anglesey bridge, Donnybrook. It is, as yet, impossible to ascer tain even the probable amount of the damage done either to person or property. Report speaks of a con siderable number of horses and cows, together with farming implements, &c., having been lost, and it was affirmed that the bodies of a•, woman and child had been driven ashore near Irishtown. The road from Beggar's-bush barracks to Ball's-bridge was entirely covered for three or four hundred yards, and the houses or cottages in its immediate vicinity were much incom moded by"the water. In two or three instances the lawns in front of a new range of houses had to be drained-by perforating the boundary wall to admit the floods through. A great number of the poorer inha bitants in this neighbourhood with difficulty escaped from being smothered in their beds. One old man, in particular, was only rescued by the determined exer tions of a young relative, who was obliged to swim with his pious burden through the lake like inundation which encompassed their little dwelling during the night. The labouiers of the railroad were engaged busily during the day in removing the various frag ments and building materials which the current had hurried down, and all the horses and carts which could be procured were employed in drawing them to a field off Pembroke-road. Even the fields on this side of this road were inundated at a good distance from the river, wherever the ground happened to be low. The wooden bridges at Donnybrook and Rathgar were also torn away, and the bridge at Milltown suffered consi derably. It was fortunate that the destruction of Ball's-bridge had taken place after daylight, as other wise a good many lives might have been sacrificed. As it was, a rumour was abroad about Artichoke-road that sonic persons from the neighbourhood of Serpen tine Avenue had been lost. The greater part of the low grounds between the railroad and Ring's-end were one sheet of water. Northwards of the city, particularly in the more re. mote country parts, the injury done by the violence of the storm was, we regret to state, to a very serious ex tent. No less than 11 cabins in the immediate vici nity of Drogheda were completely blown down, an 4 two of the inmates (females) dangerously hurt. From the various accounts that have as yet reached us, the farm-yards, and haggards, which along the line of road in question are in a peculiar degree exposed, must have been materially injured by the gales, not only in respect to the scattering of the hay and corn, but the exposure of the same to the rain that fell in torrents, such as have been seldom witnessed by the oldest persons. INCENDIQRISM. —William Collett, the man charged with causing the fire at Mr. Holtham's, at Cleeve Prior, was re-examined at Evesham, on Monday, and again remanded. It appears that he had made use of some threaten ing language, and, though waraed off the premises, went into the barn the day before the fire on some pretence, while a man was thrashing there. A few days before the fire, he purchased. gunpowder, brimstone, and nitre, of a grocer at Bidford. Islotwithstaming these suspicious circumstances, however, he has accounted for his time on the evening of the fire very closely. The rising prosperity of Preston, as a manufacturing town, has for some time past been remarkable. Many manu factories on the first-rate scale have been lately built, and more of i e t q s ual manydrawbbareeenfitthperwepaaartatoifona. ready The great eom magnitude exertions has munication with the sea, which, however , is now likely to be removed by a projected railway to the Wyre , which as a natu ral harbour affords a safer one than many others on the same coast : it is, besides, capable of affording accommodation to any number of vessels of burden, however great. The com parative difference of port dues, and the small charges for transit, with all its expedition and facilities, will necessarily draw to this harbour all the traffic of Preston and neighbouring towns, and in a short time foreign traders generally may be calculated upon, and the steamers and coasters from the ports n orth of Dublin, the Isle of Man, Glasgow, and the western c oast of Scotland. Mr. liesketh Fl ee t woo d, the member for Preston, deserves great credit for forwarding this under taking, which all who value the advancement of the internal resources of the vicinity of Preston must highly appreciate.
