The report concludes with the ob servations of the different Parish Officers, as to the causes of the increase or decrease of the Poor Kates iu their particular pa rishes. The Committee, however, do not pre tend to give " the causes to which is to be ascribed the check which has been put to the progressive diminution of the Poor .Rates, fur ther than by referring to an observation in the Report of last year," viz. " The de " gree in which the account of the Poor Rates " is affected by the variation of the price of cc wheat, will be more correctly ascertained when " the expenditure of 1823-4 is known, because " in that year wheat rose again to an average, " according to the legal returns of 565. 8(1%." The average of the year 1824, and the two pre ceding years is however only 50s. 6d. and looking at the amount of the average expenditure for the third triennial period, and the average price of wheat for the same three years, it would appear that the price of wheat would in a very small degree (if it did at al!) affect the Poor Rates, because the average price of wheat for the first triennial period was 99 shillings, and the poor expenditure was only 6,129,8441.; and for the third period the average price of wheat was only 71s. 6d., and the expenditure amounted to the sum of 7,273,5351., a sum very far exceeding that of any other period, and moreover the difference between the expenditures of the first and last periods as only 9,0001., whilst the difference of the price of wheat is 48s. 6d. SE 11 AMPORT, EAST NIB Es.—We have been informed, from undoubted authority, that tidings have just arrived, announcing an unexampled rise in the Ganges, which has been attended with the most destructive consequences. The account has been received from one of the Missionaries at Serampore, who states that the Ganges swept away, in, that place and its vicinity, several hundred houses, and drowned some thousands of the inhabitants. The large Baptist Mission house, in which were all the printing; presses, has bean nearly destroyed, although som e p art of paper and types was saved, as were all the manuscripts. The large new college also is safe, havin, ,, been built on higher ground. The venerable missionary, Dr. Carey, was i n the Missionary-house at the time (in a convalescent state, after a fever), and as the -waters advanced, he was with difficulty removed ; soon after which the walls fell, and all was desolation. Nothing was said of Calcutta, which lies on a different side of the Ganges to that of Serampore, and on somewhat higher ground ; but thelower parts of Calcutta have probably suffered from this dreadful vi sitation. The next tidings from India will be looked for with great atriiety, from an apprehension that all the towns and villages in the course of the river may have been similarly affected. The disaster at Serampore occurred in the-night, which greatly aggravated the evil.—( Times.) A letter has been received, by his relatives. in Bath, from an officer in the East India Company's ser4iee, stating the capture of the King and Queen of Ava with im mense treasure, in a fort where they had taken refuge : the native troops suffered great loss. The writer' s share of' prize. money, as Lieutenant, is estimated at 18,0001.—(Evcning Paper.). A new cutter-built pleasure boat has been conveyed from Woolwich to Virginia Water, for the use of the KING. The cabin is capable of dining 24 persons. I year, and only Q,710!. less thau that of the year 1816, the concluding period of the war. The Re port remarks upon two circumstances arising out of these returns ; first, the small dif ' ference between the amount collected in the year ending the 25th March, 1816, and that ending 25th March, 1821, and secondly, the fact that, notwithstanding there has been a di minution of one per cent., the diminution has I teen much more partial than in former years, so that whilst one county (Leicester) exhibits a de crease of 11 per cent. as compared with the pre ceding year, another county (Wilts) returns an increase of 8 per cent. This increase as com pared with the preceding year, occurs in. the fol lowing Counties : THE ROYAL FAMILY Yesterday his MAJESTY had a select party to dinner.

VAuxuAt.t..--A grand military gala, ,in commemoration of the battle of Waterloo, took place at these wardens last night. The usual brilliancy of the illuminations was greatly enhanced upon this occasion by the addition of upwards of 15,000 varie gated lamps, which, formed into characteristic devices, and aided in their effect by the picturesque splendour of an illu minated grove, imparted quite a magical appearance to the scene around ; and the illusion was still heightened by the martial strains breathed frOm the orcheitra, while the banners of the different nations of Europe hung waving in the night breeze, beneath the dark green foliage of the trees. Unfortu-. nately, however, the unfavourable st a t e o f the weather prevent-, ed this delightful scene from being enjoyed by so many.sisitors as would otherwi se h ave b een present. a'he cornirany,bowevr, was much more numerous than could, under the circunisti9tes, have been expected.

W e never were ad mirers of Mr. KEAN, and have wondered at his success; but as he is so popular among the mid die classes of the people, who in general possess more common sense than those of a higher or in-' ferior rank, we suppose that we must distrustour own judgment and submit to their's. - His per formance was.much the same as it'has heretofore been throughout, except that his voice failed to wards the conclusion of the play.

Large sums were pending on the issue of this match. TOW, JUNE Thursday last having E PARK been fixed for the t lB. rials of skill and speed of the 2d Regiment of Bucks Yeomanry, Stowe Park became the scene of attraction to thousands. The trial of skill commenced soon after eight o'clock; at which time there were about 2,000 or :,000 persons assembled. The horseman starts at full gallop, and first cuts at a potatoe ; he then, at a distance of forty yards from the first object, endeavours to take an iron ring from a hook on which it is suspended ; and still proceeding at full speed fifty yards further, draws his pistol and fires at a target. If the horseman succeeds in cutting the potatoe, taking the ring on his sword's point, and in hitting the target, he gains three points, and the rule is, that such competitor for the prizes runs three times, so that it is possible for him to gain nine points and no more.— On the present occasion the candidates were more expert than we have ever seen them. Last year, for instance, there were a number of ties at six, but now there was no chance for a person so little adroit as to get so small a number. About forty persons entered the lists. The prizes were two silver tan kards, which were won by the following persons : John Clarke, A kely - - - 9 31r. John Dance, Whitfield - - . 8 There were besides two persons who gained seven points, Mr. J., KEY, of Lillingstone, and .111 r. J. F. BoTTEitit it., 'of .Si/verstone. The names of those who gained six, are too nu merous to mention. In consequence of there being no tics, the sport was of a shorter duration than usual, the trial being over' by half-past ten o'clock. All then began to bend their steps towards the race course. A stand was erected for his ("race the Duke of BUCKINGHAM, his Duchess, and their more dis tinguished friends, adjoining the startin , -post, and c l ose by a hooth was also fixed Mr the purpose of h their taking refresh, menta. .We noticed on the stand and _coßmr .

The Yeomanry and Militia Bands began to play immediately on his Grace' s arr i va l, w hi c h t h ey cont i nue d to du at intervals throughout the day. There could not be less than four or five 1 and twenty thousand persons - assembled. The races commenced soon after 12 o'clock.

Mr. 0. was pracusing the greater part of the day, for his novel match on Wednesday, with the double barrel, and killed 29 birds out of 36, bringing the bet ting almost to even. llibury Races, it is said, will he discontinued—Lord Sher. borne having purchased Bibury house and lands, in which the race course is situated, and given notice to the Club to discon. tinue their meetings there. The following is a copy of a letter from one of the Serjeants in Glasgow to his sweetheart. Being a curiosity of its kind, we take the liberty of laving it before our readers : DEER CHARLOTT-1 hop that Yu Ar in Gudd Helth as it Levi me at Presant I hop That I Shall se yu Soun in my Reg mint You Must Put of yur Blu Ribens and put on whit Lov Ribens I am afrayde that Sargant V------ and I shal Fite a Duall abut yu 0 Deer Charlott I cud La me Lif dun at yur Fete Tham Thate sese yu And Dis-nt Luv yu ot to be damde ande he That Luvs yu and wud Herm ot to be Dubly damde yur Fiter for A Dutchhes Than A Sargants wif. lam My Deer Charlott ar (edixturgh Paper.) admiren Layer b.

The Brigade, after wheeling back into open column, metaled, past, with the D u k e o f C ambri d ge at the head, in slow an d quick time. Major-General Woodford then proceeded to ma nceuvre the Brigade.. - The movements and evolutions were 20 in number, and were precisely similar to the manceuirres: that were perfortned by the battalions, singly, last week. TIE: Brigade executed the whole of the evolutions with extraordi nary celerity and precision. The square formations were ad- , !nimble, and the firing in square incessant. The, field return was twelve hundred men. The Light Infantry fired:seventy ,rounds of blank cartridge. The 2tl Royal Surrey Regiment of Militia concluded the period of their training at Guildford yesterday. Their conduct in quarters, as well as their soldierlike appearance in the geld, hare been such as to entitle both - officers and men to the highest praiie we can bestow. MERCANTILE; SHIPPING.

The advantages of the situation' rif• this Naval Port to the French nation are very considerablei• xs affording adequate protection to their own shipping,. :and the means of greatly annoying the English commerce m dime of war. To'counteract this, Government have acted with their usual w ulnor.;w l►eixam~ • ~eu,~ square miles, 21 leagues north of Cherbourg. . . • Although the Breakwater and new works there hive :beers upwards of 30 years in the execution, a work of similar Orig_ nitude may be finished at Portland within the spaCe of six or seven years, that bland affording many million tons of stones, ' already quarried, necessary to complete this useful design,. without any expence but that of its removal by the ear% and expeditious means of a rail-road. The completion of this mUt-k will afford more extended general advantages to the country ht large than a ny similar undertaking, from its situation between Portsmouth and Plymouth, in the event of stress of weathiT, there being no other port in which ships can ride in safety, and affording withal a secure asylum to our Merchant Vessels, in time of war, as a naval station, to watch the operations of .the enemy on 'the opposite coast, and to be enabled to put to, lieu, when they could not from Spithead. Sacraria many have hfsa the disasters that have occurred, from the want of such 'a sate retreat to our shipping ; painful would it be to renew gni m'elas eholy a Subject, therefore we will avoid its repetition, snit , our brief remarks in the pl eas i ng re fl ectrou ' and chtering pap spect of this great National Work. • • • - 7 ;•-•1 . Extract of a letter posted at Lloyd's: Aiterit Gibraltar, May 30 :—" Absolam, the master of the Ne:ptuT .

A Colombian schooner Was cruising off Cape de Galt three days since; and a brig, Vincidor (Colombian brig of war), the General Snr , a n a , ase l Aquileba, private ers , sailed from here the 25th inst."

This improvement is another instance O' the...advantar.: derived to this country froM the enlightene patriotism .834 beneficent influence of his Grace the Duke of Northumbedanu. —( Berwick Advertiser, June 13.) We. extract the following from the Brussels Oracle of the 15th instant :—" On the 6th instant, rather lap in the evening, about 20 young persons, chiefly artificer', anti farmers' servants, embarked in a tishing-boatat Kainper, with a view to cross over to the Isle of Hamper. Most unfortunately. just as they had reached the middle of the stream, the boat sunk, and only three persons saved their lives! This sad acci dent was the result of impatience, as the boat which sunk was not the regular ferry-boat, but one which was taken in a hem, because the ferry-boat was on the other side. In the boat that sunk there was a reservoir at the bottom for Rah. The great weight of so many persons on board occasioned the springs to yield, and the water to rush in so impetuously, as to prod-ace the melancholy catastrophe we have mentioned. The whole of the young men being of excellent charades, and very induct.. trious in their callings, has occasioned a very deep sensation is the public mind." The plan for the proposed new street free Charing-cross to the British Museum, has been sent to the Vestries of the different Parishes through which it is to pass; and it is supposed will be proceeded with immediately. The purchase of the Adelphi Theatre,'l4, Messrs. TERRY and YATES, was completed yes,. .. terday, when these Gentlemen paid' down a-de_ - . posit of four thousand pound• to the representi-; fives of the late Mr. RODWELL. As a young lady was eating mussels the other day,- her teeth struck upon some hard substance,' and upon examining what it Wal!, she was sur prised to find a pretty large and beautiful pearl. —(Stirling Journal.) A lady approaching the vale of years, but still retaining personal attractions, while admiring herself in her glass at the completion of he^r toilet, exclaimed in triumph to her maid,--:- " What would you give, child, to have my beau ty ?" " Almost as much as you would, Madam," replied the piqued Abigail, "to possess my youth."
