Most unprecedented obstinacy. The people in a state ready for insurrection, the Offices of Go vernment completely disorganised, and money supplied to the Royal Treasury by the sale of trading licenses at once ruinous to the National Itevenue, and increasing, if it is possible, to do 5°4 the difficulties which oppose themselves to a retu rn to a better and a wiser system. These ac e°ants are indeed heart-sickening, and we cannot but reprobate th e man who persists in conduct which reason sheaved could be conducive to b h ° good p urpose, and 4•1101 positive experience as subsequently verified . . It is said, that an P : Pe(li tion, compos e d o f t wo f r i gates , severa l `aysettes, and some transports,' will sail from Petro the Ist of September, and convey three Iftiand men to Porto Rico, and 2,500 to' the 2%111441.

We hav e not an opportunity at sent of entering beim, into its details, but it would appear .y pre by this Return that the old law was far from 8° inoperative as it was represented. The diir . 1.. .

YORKSHIRE.—Mr. HOWARD and Mr.Bvraw, are .two additional Candidates for this county, under the late Act of Parliament. •; - DEATH OF THE DUCHESS OF DORSET.—We re gret to announce the death of her Grace tho Duchess of DORSET, which took place at Knole on Monday evening last. _ _ On Tuesday evening, Mr. WARREN, the King's Messenger, left town kith dispatches for our Ambassador at Madrid. BRUSSELS, JULY 31.—The subscription made at Verviers for the relief of the sufferers by the fire at that village produced above 7000 francs in the first 24 hours. The inhabitants of Spa, and the strangers there, have also subscribed 1500 francs. A letter from Paris, dated Monday, states. that the Courier Francais of , the preceding day had been seized 48 hours after publication, in conse quence of a letter which appeared in it from a person who had abjured the Catholic religion and turned Protestant. A letter from Madrid, in a French paper, says—" A licence has just been granted to one Gavizia, contractor for the bull-fights and dealer in oxen, for the sum of ten millions of reals, four in ready money and six in bills of exchange on himself, authorizing him to. import into Spain in foreign vessels, 600 tons of English manufactured cotton goods, free of duty Itis estimated that Gavizia and his associates (supposed to be three in number) will gain ten millions each." The French Papers are much occupied with account of a curious prosecution which has been instituted against two brothers, named Claude and Michael .11,uggieri, celebrated artists in the , fabrication of fire-works. On occasion of the rejoicings consequent on the coronation of King Charles X., these artists were engaged by the Public Authorities of Paris , to exhibit specimens of their talents. Unfortunately, several explo sions took place irregularly, and the fire-works fell among the crowd, killing several persons and .wounding others. The two brothers, it seems, gntertained strong feelings of rivalship in their art against each other, and they mutually re .proached each other with being the cause of the' accidents in.question. Both of them, however, were prosecuted criminally for their neglect ; but the feature which will appear most singular to English readers is, that the parents of a young woman, who had been killed, intervene as in a civil proceeding, claiMing damages! The daughter was a dress-maker, 'of the age of 25 ; and her parents set a value upon her of 10,000 franks, about 400/. . Singular, however, as this proceed ing is, the English common law , allows the same sort of action, though it has become almost obso lete from disuse. We are happy to find that the statement re , speeting the origin and nature of Lord WiNctiEr.- SEA'S illness was incorrect. Lord WINCIIELSEA has 'had no fit, and is gradually recovering his health and strength,--(Mortiing Post.) The Duke of INOIITHUMBEICLAND, prior to his quitting France, was presented' by the King with a valuable snuff-box, richly set in dinmondb, and ornamented with a fine likeness of his Majesty. All the foreign Ministers who were present at the Coronation of CHARLES X have been pre. sented , with gold medals by the French Govern. ment, commemorative of the event. Each medal bears the name of the receiver. The Chamber of Commerce of Newcastle-upon- Tyne have voted one hundred guineas for the Purpose of purchasing a piece of plate (an ele gant tureen), to be presented to CHARLES OGLE, Esq. as a token of their estimation of his official conduct during the many years (thirty-three) he has held the Collectorship of the Customs at the port, which important office he has recently re signed. BRADFORD COMBERS AND WEAVERS.-At the masters' meeting, yesterday week, the proposal frequently before adverted to was again broached, of bringing the mills to an entire stand ; and on Wednesday a specific proposal was made, that all the mills in the town should cease to work on Saturday, the 6th of August. After some discussion, this motion was put to the vote, and carried by a large majority, there being for it 33, against it 6, voices. To prevent the per sons who have continued their work, and abstained from joining the union, from being thrown entirely out of bread, it is in tended. to make them a weekly allowance of something more than is given •by the union to the unemployed, so long as the works remain suspended. The works-en, seeing that all hope of reconciliation is for the present at an end, are leaving the town in numbers to seek employment elsewhere. Their families are breaking up and separating. Friday week two cart-loads of children were sent to Leeds, to be disposed of amongst their supporters in this place ; and on Wednesday last two additional cargoes arrived here from the same place. The usual weekly meeting of the workmen was held yesterday week at Fairweather Green, Mr. Tester, in the chair. Mr. Tester, without entering into any particulars as to the state of the finances of the Union Society, declared, that the Committee were now certain that their store could never be exhausted. At first they only trusted and believed they should be supported—now they were certain of it. They could have money from a hundred different places for nothing but the trouble of fetching it ; and, rather than the workmen of Bradford should be overcome, the Committee would canva ss every town and village throughout England for supplies. Before the strike for an advance, steps were taken to ascertain the disposition of the workmen in the town and neighbourhood of Bradford, and 14.000 parsons entered their names as approving of the plan, and as willing to act upon it. This was union ; and by union alone could an advance -of wages be obtained.—( Leeds Independent.) . It is with extreme regret we have to record the death, by drowning , of Mr. ESSAY DIGBY, second son of the late llean DIGBY. This re gretted young gentleman, who had but a few days ago attained his 21st year, was on a visit with his uncle, the Rev. Mr. Digby Landens town, near Naas. On the morning of Thursday last, after breakfast, he proceeded to bathe in the canal, having given directions to his servant to have his gig and horses hi waiting at an adja cent bridge. The servant, alarmed at his unu sual delay, made inquiries respecting him, and was informed by a woman who came along the c a nal, that she saw a gentleman strip about an hour before, and go into the water. On pro ceeding to the place, his clothes were found, but no vestige of his person, till about three hours after, with all the appearance of life extinct.— Mr. DigbY was a young gentleman of grea t pro mise, an d had just completed his College course; lie had but lately been put in possession of con siderable property ; and, it is said, was on the eve of forming a most respectable matrimonial connection.--(Dublin Freeman's Journal.)

THE DOWAGER LADY ANHERST.—On Friday, the 22d ultimo, after an absence of nearly five years, the Right Hon. Dowager Lady AMHERST re-visited LEvEN-GriciVE. her beautiful country-seat on the banks of the Leven. Her Lady ship was wet by her principal tenantry on horseback, near Ingleby-cross, in Cleveland, and the following very appropriate address, which was presented to .her Ladyship,' not only con tained the unfeigned sentiments of her tenantry, but, we may safely affirm, the general feeling of all the surroundineneigh bourhood : ".MY LADY—After so long an absence, your grateful te: nantry hail with most hertfelt pleasure, your arrival again amongst them, and have deemed it a duty which they ought .to perform—thus, in some measure, to evince to your Ladyship their most profound esteem and dutiful thanks for the many indulgent favours they have experienced from your Ladyship. and they most particularly entreat that you will not infer, from their conduct this day, that they are stimulated by any other motives than that of assuring your Ladyship that they are duly and deeply sensible of the many acts of kindness they have re ceived. And they cordially request that your Ladyship will entirely dispense with the too prevalent custom of a treat:being well aware that it has a great tendency to depreciate that sincere respect which it is their utmost desire'to pay." Her Ladyship declared the great satisfaction she felt at their attention, and the next morning addressed the'following note : " LadylAmiterst cannot forbear again expressing the heartfelt satisfaction she experienced last night at the kind reception she received from her respected tenantry, after sO long an absence." Her Ladyship has very laudably ordered a considerable sum to he distributed to the most deserving poor in' the different townships where her estates are situate-to whom she has ever been a most kipd friend. FETE AT OAKLEY PARK.—Preparations are about to com mence, for the purpose of giving one of the most splendid Fetes Shropshire has ever seen. The Hon. Robert and Lady Har riet Clive are the owners of the domain, and the spot near Lud low. It would be premature to give an outline, as the exact movements or arrangements are not yet determined ; .but we hear that all the Nobility' and Gentry for fifty miles round will be invited. A handsome medal is about to be struck, commemorative of the laying of the first stone of the New London Bridge. It will bear the heads of the present Lord Mayor and Lady Mayoress, in the William and Mary style. The die will be sunk by Mr. Wyon, from an exquisite model by Mr. Rouw. Among the numerous improvements recently made in the vicinity of the Metropolis, we are happy to notice that an excellent new road has just been made over Battersea Common, which affords an improved communication with the whole of Surrey; the new road from Hyde Park Corner, over Battersea Bridge, being now the nearest to Epsom, and all that neighbourhood. How ARE THE MIGHTY FALLEN!-Mr. KF.AN performed four nights at Cheltenham in the last week. In order to increase the attraction on the last evening (Saturday), the Great Tragedian de scended to play the part of SNlzkster Dagger wood, in which he introduced, according to the bills, " imitations of actors, singers, and harle quins.

Here rests the man whose firm, expansive, mind Nature had form'd to benefit mankind. For knoWledge oft he travell'd far and wide, And, arm'd with virtue, danger still defy'd. Intent to trace the works of times of yore, And all their sacred mysteries explore, • He, with unweary'd zeal, his aim pursted, Upheld by patience and by fortitude. Lofty in stature, of heroic size, Gentle in mind, benevolent arid wise. Such was BELzoir 1, ardent and sincere, Tq Friendship, Science, and to Virtue dear. Blest with a wife, who all his merit knew, A kindred Soul, affectionately true, That wife remains; with nought to sooth her grief But the fond hope, when Death shall bring relief, In the same grave to join his reliques here, And meet his Spirit in a happier sphere. ' It is understood to be the determination of this Lady, if the profits of her present most interesting Exhibition will enable her, to visit the place where her husband's remains are depo sited,, and to be buried in the same grave,-an event that will be much regretted by her numerous friends in this Country. ANECDOTES ; &c. BARONIAL, fimstAot.--=tf a Nobleman enters upon the manor of Oakham, in Rutlandshire, he forfeits one shoe of the Horde he ridetlt, as an Homage to Lord HARRINGTON, the Lord-of it.-- (Speed.) . _ PRINCE'S METAL.—When the Prince of ORANGE, after wards WILLIAM the nuitil, carne over to this country, five of the seven Bishops, who had been sent to the Tower, declared fin' his Highness; but the other two would not. Upon which DRYDEN said, " that the seven golden candlesticks were sent " to be assayed in the Tower, and five of them proired prince': ' metal." PRISON-BARS.—The rustic game of pet ion-bars was once a Royal amusement. King EDWARD VI., in his diary, tells us, that on the 31it of March, 1549, he offered " a challenge, that he and sixteen Gentlemen of his chamber would ruff at base, shoot, and rnn at the ring, with any seventeen of the Court." TRUE COURA6Z.—When GiesArt was counselled to' have a Guard always about him : he answered., he would have none; for he would rather die once than live in perpetual care and fear !—( Imp. Hist.) A French Gentleman some days since applied to the Secre tary of one of oiir London Charities to know the nature of its foundation. The Clerk Was prodeeding regularly to inform him that they had one good President arid twelve "Vice-Presi dents, when he was interrupted by " Ah, ha I von gud Presi dent ; vice, dat is vicked-,-and you have twelve vicked ones— they vill be all too strong for dat gentleman ; I shall carry my money to another house. " ' ANGIEL'S COST UME.—Upon the death of a worthy baitlie of Edinburgh, his relations resolved to erect a monument to his memory. They accordingly applied to a mason, and, among other directions, desired that he would represent an angel, bear ing the' baillie to Heaven. The mason set to work, and chiselled out a charming likeness of the deceased worthy • on the head of the angel he carved a wig similar to the baillie's(which was the largest wig in the Town Council). One of his relations, on return+ in g from London,went to inspect the subject of the sculpture. Af (-ter musing some time over it, he asked the mason who the lower figure was intended for. " Oh, that's the angel lifting our auld friend to Heaven." " The angel !" said the. gentleman, " who ever saw an angel wear a wig ?" " Did ye ever see ane without a wig fin retorted the artist. This was unanswerable ; so the monument wa? erected, and may be seen on the north side of the church-yard of the Greyfriars, to the wonder of all beholders. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

NAnnow ESCAPE of Captain TINLING of the First Guards.—This morning a fatal accident had nearly befallen Captain TINLING, Acting Adju tant to the 3d battalion of the Ist Regiment of Foot Guards. Whilst the men were on parade on the Mall in St. James's Park, the battalion had been formed into a line, and the Captain, who was mounted on a beautiful bay charger, rode down the front in the usual manner to in spect them ; and on turning his horse's head, and riding towards Col.WoonFoan, the animal bolted at full speed, and all attempts on the part of Capt. TINLING to stop his progress proved use. less, as, owing to his accoutrements, he could not use much power over him ; the animal ran up into the corner of the Treasury, and it was feared he would have plunged with the gal lant Captain over the area rails, but by a sud den jerk the animal turned his head and gal lopped, passed the Horse Guards and through the line of soldiers who formed the tilt-guard ; the men for safety fled in all directions, and the ani mal continued its course towards the gun in Spring-gardens, and, in the Captain's attempt to arrest his progress, his cap fell off, and it was expected he would have been dismounted ; but fortunately one of the Bth Dragoons seized the horse's bridle, and prevented the mischief that appeared certain. What is most extraordinary, the animal, which is quite a colt, had been rode by the Captain on field days, and had been never known to start, although in the midst of the firing. Tnt ARMY.

EXTRA ORDINAIIt EFFECT OF LIGHTNING. — On the same day that. Toulouse was injurebt by a storn, other disasters were caused by it in the parish 'of Lavellette, in the Canton of Venfeil. As the servant of M. CAIINETTI Eli was opening a window, the lightning struck her, and reduced her head to powder. It then entered the stable, and killed an ox.-- I (French Paper.) The Berwick Advertiser of Saturday last says, " The long continued drought begins to be felt in this district. The pastures and the turnips are suffering greatly for want of rain." Attie) , Villa, the residence of ANWEEr. STEw , ART, Esq., Alstone, Bucks, was in part destroyed by lire on Tuesday night. ft'broke out in, the kitchen, and the smoke alarmed the inmates near ly to suffocation. A wing of the house, together with the coach-house and stables, was destroyed. About nine o'clock yesterday evening, a person of very respectable appearance, and about 20 years of age, went on board the Floating Bath off Waterlon-bridge, for the purpose of !whim...T.- 11e had been in the water only about seven minutes, when he got out and complained of being unwell. The attendant put his shirt and stock ings on, when he fell into his arms, saying he' was very ill. Dr. Stanton, of the Strand, was immediately sent for, but before his arrival, the unfortunate gentleman said he r. as' dying, and expressing an anxious desire to see his wife, and family, he seemed to expire. Dr Stanton, when he arrived, attempted to bleed him, but without any effect. The body was then removed to a public-house in Strand-lane, where every means were used to restore animation, but all were useless. His death is supposed to have been oc casioned by an attack of apoplexy. From some papers found in his pockets, it appears that his name is Chalk, and that he is a coach-Maker, residing in Whitechapel. A fine young woman, `who has bee!) for some time employed in the town as a straw hat maker, went out early in the week to the parish of Mearns, to assist an old 'master with his hay. She wrought along with the others in.good health and spirits till five o'clock on Wednesday afternoon, when she , almost in an instant became so suddenly - indisposed that it was necessary to convey her home in a cart. A surgeon was got, who pronounced that she was seized With a violent inflammation, occasioned 'by the great heat of "the weather, and nothing could be done for her. She lived in great pain for about two hours, and expired.-- (Glasgow Chronicle.) There was a most splendid exhibition of the aurora borealis on Tuesday night. It was seen by many persons in the neighbourhood of Carlisle, and further north. It is thus described by a cor respondent in a Glasgow paper, and hisdescrip tion strictly-applies to what was observable here, except that it was' seen a little earlier :—" I t first became visible in the northern horizon about half past 11, and shooting entirely across the western heavens,sustained itself in an arch of the most beau tiful corruscations. I could compare it to nothing but the silvery gloss' reflected from the polished mirror, with this difference, however, that it was never stationary or connected,but I was flitting and radiant. iYow it seemed to glow with the sparkling brilliancy of the diamond, anon it would appear to melt into vapour, but such a vapour only as can be imagined of the serenest morn in autumn. It is inconceivable with what velocity its pencilled rays went and came, or darted and sprung from one pole to the other. In various other quarters of the sky also detached specimens of it were vi sible, which, although not equal in magnificence to this, were yet alike productive of unmingled admiration and surprise.—(Carlisle Patriot.)
