ROBBERY AND ATTEMPT TO POISON. • Yesterday evening, soon after eight o'clock, an interest ing young woman, about twenty years of age, very gen teelly dressed,. Was brought into St. Margaret's watch house for 'protection, under the following circumstances. Two women, named Lawrence and Gibling, stated that . al4 they were walking along Parliament-street, they ob served the young female pushed about, and at length knock ed down by. a man with his umbrella. On going to her assistance, she was apparently insensible, upon which they Considered it ,prudent to conduct her to the watchhouse. Greenhill, the watehhouse-keeper, and one of the beadles, being-present, .after hearing the statement of the two wo men, instantly took care of her, and finding that she seemed to get worse, they sent immediately for Mr. Annandale, the parish doctor, who, being rfroin home, his assietant speedily fame, and on his examining the unfortunate female, who still remained senseless, lie ordered something to be administ:red, when she soon after vomited ; this appeared , to relieve her; she said she was truly thankful for the kind treatment shown her, and related the eir onmstances of her case. She resided with her parents, at Clapham, and had left there yesterday on a visit to an aunt, residing in Winton, for the purpose of ascertaining when her sister was to be married ; she had never been absent all night from her mother's house, and, therefore, would sot stop at her aunt's, although partictilarly .regnested. n'':ll proceeding along King-street, Holborn, when she :let with a woman, about her own age, wearing a black bonnet and yellow shawl, who entered into conversation with her, and she proposed showing her the nearest road to Clapham. On the way, the woman repeatedly pressed her 2 0 take a glass of porter ; this she at length aeceeded to, and they went. into a public-house; she noticed the woman taking something out.of her pocket, and then she handed her the glass of porter, which she drank. Off. They left the house together, but in a . moment the woman was gene. Shia soon after becamestupified, and how she walked along the street she could not tell; or what took place after wards. When she left her mother's house she had in her pocket a half-sovereign and a half-crown, besides the articles found ; the money, she presumes, must have been taken Irian her by the woman. The young female, from the kind attention paid to her, after breakfast sincerely returned aw a k e , and left the workhouse on her return home to her friends in White's-square, Clapham. She stated her name be Ann Day. DUGAZON'S 'ADVICE TO TALMA. . . We find, in the Historical Memoirs on Talma, by M. Regnault-Warin, the following advice, as given by :Dugazon to our celebrated tragedian 9n the' eve of his first appearance-at the Comedie Fran9aise. This advice is more . than ever in season now that Melpomene and Tlialia are so little respected at the Theatre Francaise. ". Aim at being great, or at least astonishing, from your first appearance ; it is necessary to mak e an impression on the mind, and excite than hard ; but amateurs are numerous, and c onnoisseurs few. You will, however, be ap plauded by all, if you can join energy with truth. " Be not too much elevated by applause, or blockheads, by hisses ; .the latter only put down o,inekheids, the former only affect coxcombs, lavished without discernment, applause stops talent at the , outset of its career ; there arc per -4nls who would have run theirs with distinction, but who dislionmired it by faults which a just ) 4 nsure would have pointed out, and a severe lii.sging punished.

THE LORD MOH ADMIRAL CgATITAM ; SEPT. 24.—fio-day his• Royal Highness in spected the Storehouses, &c., in the Dock-yard,. and examined the articles of store in the most minute manner, asking such questions occasionally as proved ..that he had not been inattentive to the. business he set ont upon.. When he bad completed this examination, he proceeded to muster the officers, clerks, and workmen of the Dock-yard,. And the officers and men belonging to the Oidinary. His Royal Highness condescended to ask quesitions, and attend most graciously to the answers and requests of many of the men, and particularly the Warrant Officers, one of whom he recognized aS a ship-mate, when his Royal Highness was in . the Pegasus. There 'are three boatswains in the yard ; two served with Lord Nelson, one at the battle of the Nile, when he lost his arm, and the other at Trafalgar ; and the third with Lord St. Vincent; these three persons have been rewarded with appointments in the Dock-yard —one " Boatswain of the Yard," the other " Master Rigger," and the third "Boatswain of the Sheer Helk." Commissigner' Cunningha►u accompanied his Royal Highness throughout the whole of the inspection, and ex plained the various concerns of the Dock-yard in the most able and satisfactory manner. The Comptroller of the Navy, and one of the Surveyors, were also present. 'ln the course of the day the machinery of the saw mill was set in motion, for the purpose of showing her Royal Highness the Duchess the manner of its working, of which she expressed her admiration.. She afterwards set off upon a' visit to the Earl of Darnley, at Cobham Hall, After his Royal Highness had finished the inspectio n an d muster in the Dock-yard, he went afloat in the port Ad. mires barge, and inspected several ships in commission, and then returned to the .Commissioner's house, when the Commissioner had the honour to accompany his R oyal Highness to dinner with Colonel Sir Archihald Christie, the Commandant of the Qarrison, where the Nobility and various Heads of Departments in the neighbourhood, were invited to meet his Royal Highness. CHATHAM, TUESDAY AYTERNOON.--Last evening his Royal Highness the Duke of Clarence left the Dock-yard here, and proceeded in the Royal barge, lying at this station, to Sheerness, where he was received with • a double Royal salute from the batteries and the ships lying there, in com.. mission and ordinary. At Sheerness, his Royal Highness was received by the Admiral in command, the Hon. Sic Henry Blackwood, K.C.8., and the other officers stationed there at his landing. The workmen employed at the dock, and at the new house intended for the residence of the Admiral, (the present one being considered inconveuient, or rather remote from the ships for landing the officers on naval business,) received his Royal Highness with repeated acclamations, drawn up in the same manner as they had been at his Royal Highness's arrival on Thursday afternoon at Chatham. That evening the Lord High Admiral dined and' slept with the Admiral at his present residence. This morning his Royal Highness went on board the Gloucester, T 4, off Sheerness, which vessel was manned throughout the yards for his reception. The Royal Duke was met by the Captain, T. S. Norton, C. 13., and the first and second Lieutenants, and after inspecting the decks of the vessel, his Royal Highness partook of A sumptuous dejeune a la fburclfette, in the Captain's cabin, to which all the commissioned officers on board, above the rank of mates and midshipmen, were invited. • His Royal Highness thence proceeded, having first ex pressed his entire satisfaction with all he had seen on board the different vessels on the station, an 4 was received by each with a Royal salute of 20 guns, their yards being at the time completely manned. Throughout the entire of the Lord High Admiral's progress: in his inspection, the same enthusiasm pervaded all who saw him ; and it is but justice to the commander of the station, and all the officers of each rank under him, to add that every where the appearance of the ships and men were such as to call forth the repeated expression of his Royal Highness's approbation. About three o'clock. his Royal Llighness, having finished his inspection of the ships and works, returned to this sta tion (Chatham) in the Royal barge, accompanied by the same officers, &c., as had proceeded hence on the previous after noon with him. Having landed at the Dock-yard, by the Admiral's entrance port, the Royal Duke proceeded to the Commissioner's residence, in the Dock-yard, where he partook of a luncheon prepared for the occasion. The Duchess 'of Clarence, her .niece, the Princess Carlotti, and Miss Fitsclarenm, spend this evening at Cobham-hall, with the Earl of Darnley, and intend to come to-morrow, to present the Royal Marine Corps with their new colours. All the nobility and gentry of the neighbour hood are expected in Chatham to-morrow, to witness this interesting ceremony, which will take place in the Lines. This evening the Lord High Admiral will give an en tertainment, on the most sumptuous scale, at the Crown 'lnn,Rochester, which is about a mile and a half from ibis tOwn, to the officers, civil; naval, and military, stationed here, and to several other persons of distinction. The prc "parations made by Mr. Wright,r the proprietor of this hotel, it is bet fair,to say, are quite commensurate with tint importance of the occasion and to the wishes of the Royal Duke. . ‘,„ The Queen of URTEMBERG, accompanied by the Princess AUGUSTA, left the King's Palace, St. James's, yesterday morning, in one of his Majesty's open barouches, for the purpose of visiting different parts of the Metropolis. The Queen's attendants, the Baron de GE)i mrliorN and Madame KOEDER, and Lady MARY TAYLOR, the Lady in Waiting to the Princess AUGUSTA, folloWed in another of the King's barouches. The Royal equipage proceeded over Westminster-bridge, and round by Black friars-bridge, to the extensive premises of RUNDELL and 'BRIDGE, the goldsmiths and jewellers to the KING, on Ludgate-hill, where her MAJESTY alighted, and remained a considerable time inspecting the numerous collection of valuable articles in the warehouse. The QUEEN then proceeded to the Regent's Park, and drove round the outer circle ; and afterwards returned to the King's Palace, St. James's. The Princess SOPHIA afterwards visited Ler MAJESTY. The Princess AUGUSTA dined with her MA JESTY on Monday. Sir TIERBRRT and Lady TAYLOR had ales the honour of dining ber AIAJESTY. Viscount DUDLEY went yesterday to attend the xi at the Royal Lodge iutWindsor Park. Lord BEXLEY came to town yesterd.rom his seat at Font's Cray, Kent. His Lordship visited Viscount Gm:Waren at his residence in Downing-street. Immediately after having' held a Council at the Horse Guards on Friday last, the Duke of WELLING TON went down to Hatfield House, the seat of the Marquis of SALISBURY, and there his Grace has been sojourning for several days. The Gazette of last night announces the ele vation of Viscount DUDLEY to the dignities of an Earl and Viscount of the United Kingdom, by the titles of Viicount Eustax, of Ednatn, in Roxburghshire, and Earl of DUDLEY, of Dudley Castle; in Staffordshire ; also of Lord Cawnou to the came dignities, by the titles of Viscount Estuyx, of Eudyn, in Carmarthenshire, and Earl CAWDOR, of Castle martin, in Pembrokeshire. .

PROPOSED CEMETERY. MR. .tniton,—l beg leave to notice in your excellent paper some suggestions which appeared in it from the Morning Herald a few days ago, on the subject of providing places of sepulture in the environs of London, in the manner of the cemetery ,of Pere La Chaise in Paris. About two years ago there appeared ,in one of the London Papers a letter, on this subject, full of good sense and taste, which deserved to be remembered, more than it appears to have been.' If the recommendation which it contain ed of transplanting the idea of the above cemetery to the environs of our. Metropolis, and preparing burial-ground for its inhabitants in the neat and ornamental, manner of the above celebrated re pository for the dead, had been adopted, the dis gusting exhumation no w t a ki ng p l ace . at St. Martin s chtirch would have been unnecessary ; and as it is very possible that this operation may be even dangerous to the health of the inhabit ants, it might be as well to enquire by whose authority it has taken place. Churchwardens and parish officers seem now to be invested with power- over the living and the dead in the most re markable ,manner, and while the management of the poor, the most difficult of all the branches of political economy, is left:in their hands, it is not to be wondered at that it should be left to then to turn over the bones of the dead at their own discretion, for we have not heard even of a Vestry, with its usual oracular wisdom, being called to sanction this business. Among the numerous improvements upon all old systems that have lately taken place, one would have thought that discontinuing the interment of the dead, in the midst of the dense population of crowded cities, would have been one of the first, as it is surely not one of the least, necessary im provements. How burying, indeed, within the walls of a church, should ever have been the custom, or that it should continue to be so, in any place where precautions for preserving the health of the inhabitants are attended to, is much to be wondered at. But the church-yard of St. Martin's is so confined that it can hardly. hold sufficient fresh graves * to account for disturbing the old ones ; therefore, without knowing more of the matter than I do at preaerit, I must suppose that the clearing of the ground in St. Martin's church yard, is not for fresh graves, but for the purpose of preparing the immediate vicinity of this hand some church, for the appearance it is to make in the fine area of which it is to constitute the chief ornament. In this predicament, the inha bitants of St. Martinis parish are naturally point ed out as likely to approve the plan recommend ed in your extract from the Morning Herald, - and in the letter to which I have alluded, of *e lecting some spot, we, will say bordering on the New or Kilburn 'Roads, for their burial-ground, which by its arrangement and judicious planting, might ,he made ornamental to the district, and soothing to the fancy by its serious but not un pleasing aspect. If' such a plot .of ground was to be so disposed of; the utility of its purpose, and the good taste of its execution, would soon be imitated, and a regular succession of cemeteries for the dead might be formed on the verge of the New-road, along the high and airy situation on the east and west of the Regent's Park, to which they might approach, making it the centre be tween them. The style of our small buildings is so mean and bad, that almost any occupation of the ground to prevent their accumulation would be an advantage ; and as it would be a bad compliment to almost any country church-yard,. 'to imagine that such an - object occupying their place, would not be considered an 'eligible' sub stitution, such an elegtint cemetery as that 'of Pere la Chaise could not but be highly orna mental in that district. When we look at the new burial-ground of Marylebone, we must ac knowledge that it is the very' antipodes to the One just mentioned. It seems to have been planned and executed in the true tradesman like style of our busy metropOlis, where time will seldom adrnit of taste, and has the appearance of a naked burial-ground, that has been rapidly filled 'by a plague, where the seriousness and m e l an ch o ly o f death and. its concomitants are usurped by its desolation and deformity. I will not occupy at present a larger space in your valuable columns,' as I shall have perhaps oc casion to return to the subject. Staffordshire, Sept. 23. C. On Friday last, as Captain Lawson, of the 15th Hussars, late of No. 2, St. John's-wood-square, was driving down the Park-road in his chaise, accompanied by his wife and two children, on his route to join his regi ment at Canterbury, he got down for a moment to speak to a friend, the horse took fright and ran down the Park road, and was, with .11-melt difficulty, stopped near the Windsor Castle Tavern by two soldiers and a labour ing man, but not before both the children and Mrs. Lawson were thrown into the road ; the youngest had its jaw-bone fracttired, and the other aeverelfinjured on the right knee and leg, and Mrs. Lawson received several severe contusions of the arms and face: fortunately the driving-cloak came in contact with the wheel, which bin dered in a measure the rapid progress of the animal. Mr. Lucas, surgeon, of Taunton-place, Regent's-park, rendered the sufferers all the assistance in his power, and the Cap.. tarn found it expedient to leave his family with a friend, as they were unfit to proceed further, and he being obliged to join his regiment. THE IRISH SHEARERS.—ThOSe Irishmen who came over to this part of the country in such num bers, about two months ago, in search of work at cutting down the harvest, are now returning to their own country in nearly equal numbers. Almost every steam boat which leAves the Broomidaw for Ireland, is well filled with this class of passengers. Such of those poor people as were obliged to return, in consequence of having come over be fore the harvest was ready for cutting, and who could find no employment of ally other kind, went back in a more dwehstiotaurtee r c e o t n u d r i i t i io in r g . than at ihn present, re they having g an fi i ) e u found (i here; b u t those eshluathsedasnhewats hatsan d and sho e s u, umbrellas several weeks e ti t i n e p ir lyzi d er i t t t ion a t b s y h e ta s r k i i n n g g , C a rappear theirto in g s .i_ i 7, ,,.. a: ;1 of them are taking home several new a rticles i of dress,ur_ with them carefully wrapped up in IT er : which they can y f v o e l a . p lo: l l i g e desti tute condition at home, it is an article for to see them have but little use.

Tranquillity seemed to prevail at the• .period , of the departure of the Liberator throughout the four departmentf. which were under his immediate controul ; agriculture and industry were recover ing from the late shock, and resuming their wonted activity as rapidly as could reasonably be expected; and although in regard to Bolivar's financial measures some complaints have been heard, raised perhaps by persons interested in the con, tinuation of abuses, the public revenues have been placed there oti a footing of regularity long unknown ; the public functionaries were paid 'up to that date - ; those who followed General Boli var to Carthagena received a monthly payment in advance,, previously to their quitting L a Guayra ; the floating.debt bad been redeemed and whilst an eighth of the net produ ce o f th e customs was saved, to be applied to the redemp tion of the foreign debt, that of the tobacco.mo nopoly, peculiarly appropriated to this object, re mained untouched, and was gradually emerging frets the gate Of decay, I plight say utter ruin, in which it was involved through the calatnitie of the late war, as it raged most violently in the departments in which this revenue is raised. EXTRAORDINARY AFFAIR. (From this Leicester Chronicle.) Many of our readers will doubtless recollect, that in January last we noticed the, circumstance of a person having swindled a number of farmers of the' neighbourhood out of large quantities of corn, to the amount of between 4001. and 5001. The fellow, it will be remembered, took a house and warehouse in Upper Charles -street, in which 'to deposit the cone, and appointed a amcceding Saturday to fulfil his contracts. Before, hOw ever, the time arrived, he left the town, and was never after heard of. Among the dupes of the swindler was a farmer named Arrowsmith, who lives at Braunsten, near this town. In May last, after four months had elapsed, having heard• of a person at Hull (a Mr. James Sheppard, a broker and corn commissioned agent), .who he understood in some measure resembled the swindler, this individual went over to Hull, ac companied by a person named Harold, who, it appears, had had some transactions in the corn trade with Mr. Sheppard, to ascertain whether he was the man. They fancied that lie bore some resemblance to him, but were so satisfied. that he was not the man, that Harold actually left with him a considerable sum, to be laid out in oorn. This commission was moat ho nourably executed by Mr. Sheppard, and Harold, we understand, has had more reasons than one to be satisfied with his honesty in his business as a corn factor. l * Here the matter rested, from May to the Bth instant, when, strange as it may appear, 'Arrowaniith went be fore Mr. Alderman Cook, and made oath that Mr. Sheppard was the man who defrauded him of his corn. A warrant was consequently issued, and Unwin, the police-officer, was despatched to Hull, accompanied by Arrowsmith, to execute it. After arriving at Hull, and getting the war rant endorsed, they proceeded to .Mr. Shep pard's office, took him into custody, and soon after set off with him for Leicester. On their ar rival near Nottingham, Mr. Sheppard was fortu nate enough to meet with Mr. Andrew, of Bing, ham, a highly respectable attorney, and clerk to the Magistrates there, who had formerly been his solicitor, whom lie requested to accompany him to Leicester. On their arrival on Wednesday, Mr. Sheppard was committed to 'the borough gaol for the night. On Thursday the prisoner was brought up to the Exchange, to undergo an examination, when Arrowsmith again most podi- Lively swore to his identity, both in his examine-, Lion in chief and his cross-examination. After the conclusion of Arrowsinith's examination, Mr. Andrew called Mr. Spooner, who deposed that he kept th e Marquis of Granby inn, and that the swindler alluded to by Mr. Arrowemith rented the ware house in Charles-street, of Mr. Wales that he and his companion were together at ..witness's house at the time the transaction took place, for ,oi h lni e s u ko e er v r e sv r ,oa h i ci e led; sl wa t o na t sd a d a se t about ten days, and that he should know them. the prisoner'did not at all resemble the swindler, woreeither b o t both again i large n pers on r whiskers, e altog ether itthe swind le;n: a ve ry ti different looking man to.the prisoner. Mr. W. Shenton, flour and. corn-dealer, pur chased come of the corn of the, swindler : he had known the prisoner for the last ten years, during which period he had had various dealings with him, in which he always found him very honourable ; that he did not at all resemble the swindler, either in voice or person. Mr. Joshua Shenton, corn-dealer, & c ., a l so stated that he had known the prisoner 13 or 14 years, and had had transactions in business with him, in which he always found . him correct ; that he regularly attended the corn-market, but n ever saw the prisoner there, either December last, or at any other period during that time ; and that be did not believ e that he ever wore whiskers. no : a Whitet all H re semble t in January r k i s e ol s r d tl ill e Inn, bought corn of the swindler early Met, when it was lying at the wareho use i n Charles -street, and th w a ho p him, either in yok e or person. Mr. Waghorne also produced a book, in which,the swindler signed a receipt for the mon ey . The Messrs. Shenton here stated that they were well acquainted with the handwriting of'Mr. Sheppard • that the • ° name " Hy. Hams, ! signed in Mr. Waghorne boob, did a not appear to be a least disguised h an d ; an d that it did not m the resemble Mr. Sh Il'eppal a writing. s The examination of the above Witnesses having been gone through, the prisoner was discharged, the • Mayor expressing himself fully satisfied of Mr. Sheppard 's innoceuee. Thus this unfortunate i n dividual has been dragged from his home, committed to gaol as a common felon, and put to great expense, owing to a too confident belief in his being the person whom he is not,—astriking instance of the ne cessity of great caution in BWearing to strangers of slight acquaintance. • Before Mr. Sheppard quitted the presence of the , Magistrates, 114 r. Andrew, his attorney, de manded a copy of the warrant upon which he had been taken into custody, in order,. as' • ' m•e sunder_ stand, to ground some future proceedings, which he obtained. Yesterday Mr. Harold made an affidavit, confirming the fads, and adding that when at Hull, he told Mi. Arrowamith that Mr. Sheppard was no the person Tt he called himself " Harris," which. Arrowomith himself fre quently a dmitted I At-rosy/smith, Harold also statee, shed tears while on the road from Hull to Gainsborough, at the thought that he should have been at the expense of th) long a journey, and not have found the swindler ! We have seen the affidavit, but our limits this week do not allow us to insert it,
