None of the tary attended his Majesty on any portion of the road ; the King went as he now usually does_ when proceeding to Kew or Wind sor, without any of the soldiers. His Majesty appeared to enjoy good health and spirits, and wore a white hat. Mane of the inhabitants along the line of road, particularly in and near Hammersmith, make it-a point to appear at their door, and bow respectfully to his 3lajesty as he passes, complimentary attention that is received very graciously.

'fho Cour Royale at •.Paris lately decided on the case of a M. DUCEEnE who was sent to Bel. law by his friends for evinciug an insane passion for an actress of the Feydeau. The object of his love was 'M , :dernoiselle Mont, now Madame Ptt tnnEn. M.- DuCLERE besieged her door, fol lowed her to the theatre, and placed himself full in her view during the pli4. He thus compelled the actress to give him. an audietto, in tt hich she announced to hint that his passion was ruisplaged, and.:that, hitc- , - -heart 'weiriertgagitrt.— So far from being cured by this annotuncement, his passion was •ottly, estaltek by it.. From silent contemplation or - her .charms, he pro ceeded. to action—front heartfelt sighs to violence. One fine morning M. .11uclere was conduCted from.the Feydeau to Charenton. Ile of course exclaimed against the injustice of this proceeding, and demanded, if every man in love was a tit subject .for Bedlam? From being the passionate but unsuccessful lover,he now soothed himself with the idea that he was pursued by the fair, and that his persecutors only prevented his receipt of those favours which she was eager to . grant. lie.. imagined he saw ,Madam Pratiher near the house where he was lodged,and mistook for her a young madman, who sung the couplets of the Chaperon Rouge in which she acted. A medical man was sent to examine him, and was just about to Sign an order for his 'release, when the lover turned round, and asked the doctor if " he believed in the power of magicians ?" lle then began to sing the charms of Mademoiselle Mori, and his wits immediately left him. The Court has granted an order fOr his confinement. The trade of Leith is at present greater than it was ever known to be, if the amount of duties received at the Customhouse may be held as a criterion. The receipt of duties one day last week amounted to upwards of 40001., and during the last quarter upwards of 63,0001. were collected. HENRI' SAVARY.— This unfortunate convict has been recently conveyed front Bristol, and placed on board the Justitia hulk at Woolwich, preparatory to his immediate transportation for life to New South Wales. DEsPERATE ATTEMPT AT SUlcnE.—=This morn ing about four o'clock, a young Lady, not more than 20-years of age, elegantly attired in white, with a crimson -silk pelisse, Leghorn bonnet, white silk stockings, and white kid shoes, pro ceeded down the stairs of Waterloo-bridge, on the Strand side, and threw herself into the River, but it being low water she stuck in the mud, from which situation she was rescued by a wa terman named KEMP, who happened to be cleaning his boat at' the time, but no sooner had she been taken out, than she made an at tempt to mount the balustrades of the bridge, in which site was also foiled, through the interfe rence of Kemp, and she was at)ength given to the watchman, who carried her to the watch house, where, in about an hour after, she was claimvd by her Mewls, who live in the neigh bourhood, and are highly respectable. We could not learn the reason the unhappy girl had for the rash attempt. . I BRUTAL ASSAULE ON A L ADY —L as t n i g h t, about. 12 o'clock, as Mrs. Lucy RYALS, wife of Mr. Josxrit ItTAr.s, one of, the corps dramatique of Covent-garden Theatre,was proceeding through St. John's-square, Cle rkeii well, to her residence in St. John's-street ; she was seized by a ruffian in the shape of a human' b e i ng , and most cruelly and indecently used, which caused , her to' fall into hysterics. The fellow actually tore •the sleeves from her pPlisso, and injured her apparel in many places. Fortunately, two gentlemen, neighbours, came up a n d rescued Mrs. Rya's from further :Violence, and gave the fellow into custody. He gave his name, Smith, of No. 42, St. John street-road ; but there is rpn4ou to hplieve that is fictitioug.

LE BrrIYEEY BROWN, TUE YORKSHIRE GIANT, AND SHELTON, FOR £lOO A SIDE. This fii4lit took place yesterday'at Paul's Perry, about 52 miles from London. It was intended to have pitched the ring between Stony Stratford and Brick-hill, but Magis terial necessity compelled them to trudge on the northern road, to a field about a mile on the left hand in Northamptonshire. The fight produced a good deal of interest in the country, but as the London Dons had not seen Brown, betting was rather at a Stand still. Spring took the York shirenian in hand, and ilittd been training in Hereford.— He is upwards of six feet high, and stout in propor tion—about thirty-two years of age, and weighing be- . tween fourteen and fifteen stone. Great expectations were formed from his weight and activity. As for Shelton, it is un necessary to speak. He was in excellent condition, and high spirits.--The ring was pitched on a fine bit of ground ; and it was both interesting and singular to observe, that a great num ber of pretty country maids sat on the grass, mingled with their admiring yokels, to witness the fight.—Ward, who came up to Stony Strattbrd, ran a race with youn g Ga s, a nd b eat hi m cleverly. He looked AS " fine as a star," barring a black patch on his right cheek.—At eight minutes past one, Brown threw his hat into t h e r i ng, an d was received with three' cheers. Ile looked a fine fellow, and was seconded by Spring anti Cribb—colour red. He was never in the ring before. Shelton soon appeared, seconded by Josh. Hurls k and Peter Crawley —colour blue. The six men looked fine 4tout fellows. Shel ton flung hat right over the ring and was much cheere,... He won the.toss for the sun, which was very hot. ROUNDS. At 26 minutes past one the men shook hands. The dispa rity between them was not very great. Sparring—Shelton made a blow with his left, and put in one with his rf::ht—lint Brown returned, and threw Shelton with 'a right hander.— (Cheers for BroWn.) 2. Brown quite confident, tame up, and after two inter changes, sent Shelton down again, with a right hander on the lug, which bled.—(lnmense shouts for Brown, and 10 to 5.) •3. They h u r r i e d to a close, and broke away—to it again; when Bros right hand toad well. Shelton returned and, in a close, they struggled for the throw, but Brown won it, falling heavily on Shelton. 4. Shelton came up with his left, and put in a good one— Brown returned with his right, and, in a close, both fell. 5. Brown missed a right-handed blow from excessive force, and Shelton went down. 6. Brown too' eager to go to work. After a feint he went in, but Shelton received him coolly, and put in a body blow.— Brown struck him with the right on the breast, which echoed again. Shelton retreated to the ropes, and went down to avoid punishment. Brown's right hand swelled, and, after a smart rally, Shelton went down at the ropes —no mischief, 8, The advantage was on neither side, but Brown was de cidedly the fresher man. Down as usual. 9. Brown rushed - up to Shelton, who eagerly held out his left, but Brown broke through all guards, and bored his man up to the ropes, • where a tremendous hug ensued. Shelton • strove hard to extricate himself from the giant embrace of Brown, who kept pelting at Brown's body for some time. (Great confusio:m took place in this round, in consequence of Oliver and others pushing in. Josh. Hudson got furious, anti set to fighting with Oliver. Time was called, but the battle here stood still till Oliver and Josh. settled theirs. They both turned across the ring and fell outside; Josh.'s nose pouring torrents, and his eye black.) 10. Brown came up with a bloody nose, and, after a smart round, both went down. 11. Shelton had decidedly the best of this round ; he closed Brown, and hugged him in chancery till both went down ; Shelton under-20 to 1 on Brown. 12. Shelton went in, but all seemed to fe e l th at i t was no use —after a feeble struggle, he fell. 13. Brown went in and struck Shelton on the head with his right hand, and down he went backwards—(Huzzas for York shire.) 14. Brown went in with his left for the first time, and hit Shelton on time forehead—he came up again, but it was only to fall throngh his weakness and Brown's strength. 15. Shelton only came up, when Brown hit him right and left on the throat, and threw him.—" Its all over." Shelton was lifted up again; but Hudson saw that it was to , no use, and gave in for him.—lmmense cheering fur Brown. REstaitics.—Poor Shelton lost this battle by dint of his op ponent's strength and stamina. Brown seemed to knock him down with perfect ease, and proved himself a good hitter with his right hand, but forgot to use his left till . near the finish. when he went and. settled his Iri an o ff hand. It was a welt fought battle. Brown has put a feather in his cap which Shel ton has lost for ever. It lasted a quarter of an hour. DEATH 131 FIGHTING. CURIOUS DIFFERENCE of OPINION among JURORS. Yesterday att 'lnquest was held before Titos. ST tatirae, Esq. and a most respectable Jury, at the Red Lion, Finchley, to inquire into the death of John Platt, who was killed in a pitched battle by a man named Thos. Leonard Jordan. Mr. John Edward Stracey, a surgeon, attended the deceased, who he heard had, been fighting a pitched battle; he tbund his abdomen much injured and inflamed. The inflammation, in witness's opinion, was caused by violent blows on the body. Mr. J. Thorn, of East End, gardener, deposed, that on Satur day evening last he was in the Five Bells public-hoese, Finch ley ; the deceased and L. Jordan were playing at howls ; the latter won the game, when deceased refused to p a y, and 'became very abusive; Jord an sat down next his wife; the deceased came towards him and used very violent language, and chal lenged him to fight; Jordan retbsed very positively, and the de ceased, still making use of the foulest expressions, struck him home, and repeated the challenge, offering to fight for money; Jordan still persevered in his refusal, until the deceased called his wife a b—h, and str uc k h er ; J or d an started up on this and said, " you may abuse, insult, and strike me, but you sliall not abuse or strike my wife, so I will fight thee." The landlord would not allow them to fight there, and they agreed to fiklit elsewhere, and accordingly met, attended by their seconds and friends, in a field in the neighbourhood ; the deceased was a man much taller, heavier, and stronger than Jordan, and was a much better fighter; they fought for a considerable time, and the deceased gave in at length, and complained of his body ; he died some time after; the deceased was sober. Mr. Hale, foreman of the Jury, asked the witness if under all the circumstances any person who had the least claim to manhood,'after being repeatedly struck, could have resisted the provocation offered by deceased ? The 'witness answered,.that he considered not. Mr. Field, another Juror, said that was not what they were to consider; they were bound by their oaths to put down such " etferveseences " of feeling, and in every case of the kind to send the parties to trial. Mr. Hale—But, Sir, here is a man sitting quietly down ; is he to be struck, and to sit calmly and hear his wife called the vilest name that can be applied to woman ? Field contended that that did not signify a jot, and put it to the Jury whether the public were to be suhiected to the exhibitions of prize fights almost daily ? that disgusting and disgraceful practice was again gaining ground, and, it behoved the Jury to send the case for trial, to show that no provocation could justify such illegal acts. The CORONER said, howeverrepreb en sible and illegal pitched battles were, h e r ea lly cons id ere d i n this case no other verdict than that of justifiable homicide ought to be returned; it could not be expected that peOple shoulde so very forbearing as to nit down quietly andauffer their heads to be knocked about, and their wives to be abused by the vilest language. If a man was driven by such ruffianly conduct to the necessity of fighting, and his aggressor (lied, it was very hard' under such circum stances that he should be punished formurder; and the law, fully aware of such cases, had made a proper distinction. Mr. Field still argued that they were bound to make an ex ample of the man. Upon this a very long and warm conversa tion arose, and after a great deal of clamour, all the Jurors held themselves opposed to that gentleman's position; but agreed generally in the necessity there was for indicting the others for a riot, The seconds were then called in and received a severe repri mand, and the J ur y h av i ng viewed the,body, returned a ver dict—." That the deceased died of inflammation of :the bowels, caused by the blows received in a fight, from Thomas Leonard Jordan, while standing in his own defence." A RELIGIOUS Sp. 4 ST/ EL.--The following an theatic story is copied from the Carlisle Journal:—" A few evenings since,. while the singers belonging to a church •in Westmorland were practising psahnody, a little spaniel bitch, who usually accompanies the .singing master, observed (as is supposed) one of the party ( a f em al e ) w i thout a book in - her hand, all the rest having each one. The little animal, after ranging to and fro in the church for a considerable time, was seen coming up the middle aisle with a prayer book in, her mouth; which she dropped at the feet of the above-mentioned female, at the same time looking up at her, as much as to say-,..

COL/RT . ...WA RTIA • PonTsmouTa, Juur 11.-_A Court Martial this tnoip.in't; assembled on board his Majesty's ship. Victory, Sir GI ; SIA* • TI N, President, for the purpose of trying Lieut. James Camp_ bell, of his Majesty's ship Tyne, on the charge of imputed cowardice, in not boarding a pirateschooner, in March, 1823. off Cuba, when ordered by his Captain. The investigation had been demanded by Lieut. Campbell, in order to vindicate hit character. It appear s that Capt. Walcot headed the enterpr!so in his gig, and that the boats were kept at bay, and exposed to a galling fire fur three quarters of an hour, both front the schooner and the shore. When Captain Walcot saw a favour able opportunity to board, he sent orders for Lieutenant Campbell to push on, which orders were not understood by Lieutenant Campbell, who was taken up in firing the.boat's carronade. Wh en hi s ammunition was expended he gallantl led the p arty on, and was the first to board, - and haul down the y black flag. Captain Walcot spoke highly of all concerned i% his Gazette letter. The prosecution closed this afternoon, a,tici the prisoner enters on his defence to-morrow. • BURCH ROBBERIES IN PARIS. The Court of Assizes at Paris was occupied on Saturday last with trials concerning the numerous and ionai. demi:de robberies committed in several churches ; hut to which the stew law on sacrilege cannot be applied, as all the facts were committed before that la . w passed ;. besides which. no sacred vessel has either been carried off or profaned. Ti;' - authors of the robbery at Suresne hava not yet been 4; 4 - - covered., Antoine Cuyard, a man about 30 years of age, and for merly subaltern of the royal guard, confesses himself to be the sole author of all the robberies, to the number of 17, which have been committed in the course of the year 132 , 1, during the night, accompanied with the aggravating cireumstanci of escalades, violence, and false keys. The following is a list of the .churches in the environs of the capital which he he's robbed :—The churches of 31ont Valeeien, Severer, Belleville. Ville d'Array, Argenteuil, Poisay, Soiay-sous-Enghien, Au bervilliers, Bourget, and St. Ouen ; in Paris itself' the chiirches of Notre-Dame des Victoires, St. Germain l'Aaxeroim, Saint Severin, Notre-Dame de Lorette, Filler du Saint-Sacrament au Marais, and Saint Sulpice. The last-named church has twice been the theatre of Ouyard's misdeeds; the first rob. bery was committed by his entering a window in the Rue Palatine. He then took two three.branched candelabras from the altar, and four of two branches front the pillars of the nave. The second robbery took place in that part of the building called the German Chapel, from whence he took a bronze crucifix, three tablets, two candlesticks of gilt c opp er , and two l arge curtains. FrOm other churches Guyard has taken crucifixes of ivory, gilt and silvered brass candelabra. surplices, &c. At Argenteuil he took four silver hearts ,us. pended to a statue of the Virgin. The whole of these art'clea were sold by the prisoner to dealers in curiosities and others, not put on their defence, except. Theme Maingaut, who is accused of having received a part of the goods, knowing them to have been stolen. It was in his deposition that Guyard charged ill's woman, complaining bitterly that she and her husband htal only paid hint fifty francs for two beautiful tablets taken fr.)l,, St. Sulpice, and which, according to his account, were ,worth one hundred crowns. lie asserts that misery alone tlrove him to commit these robberies, and because the robbing of churches offered greater facilities, and was attended with left, danger.—Th e woman M a i ngaut affirms, that she was not aware of the articles having been stolen, and that she was not fur prised to see church ornaments in the hands of Guyard, who pretended that he had several relations in the church, viz. —a sister, a nun ; and an uncle, a canon. The husband of this woman, who is a broker, has been already prosecuted for receiving sto l en goo d s, and passing false coin.—M. de Peyronnet, Advocat-General, sustains the prosecution.—The Counsel for the defendants are Messrs. Renaud and Claveatt—, quyard thought proper to add along speech 0 his defence, which: . Ilited more than an hour, and which he delivered with astonishing facility. - " Belonging," said he, "„toan honourable family, but ruin e d by t h e R evolution, I was not horn forcrinte, and .w.hatevertnay be said, I was filled with religious ardour, and frequented the churches in consequence. Having been reduced to a state of extreme destitution, I one day went to the church of Notre-Dame des-Victoires, where the sight of a gilt crucifix tempted me. In short, I fell before the temptation of the evil spirit, and introduced myself at night into the church;. long did I resist ; I fainted on the steps of the altar, but at lasi my fate conquered, and I consummated my crime. Since then I have committed all the thefts with which you are acquainted, and of which I myself revealed a portion aftermy accusation.-- _ Never have I laid hands on any of the sacred vessels, :litho:10 the opportunity offered and m_y cupidity inerzed me to it—, Unacquainted with the th e f t at Suresne, I was recalled to my self by the touching discourse of my Lord the Archbishop of Paris :it was then that I felt the hand of God and was. deli- • vered into the hands of justice."—The Jury acquitted the woman Maingaut, but found Guyard guilty, and condemned him to ten years' hard labour and public exposure. maximum is twenty years.)

' It DEII.—A most diabolical murder Was (-Ow milted at Nottingham, on Saturday se'rmiglit, about elevtit o'clock. A female of the. name of Mary . Austin., a married woman, and who had re s id e d at Leicester with her husband, by whom she'had two children, in consequence of some disagree ment, left him some time ago, and went to Nottingham, whet., she took lodgings on the River Beck side, opposite Snow-bill : in an adjoining apartment lived one Thomas , De:Fry, a frame work-knitter, together with his wife. It seems that a'criininal connexion took place betwixt Dewey and Mary Aiidtin. .one after sons, by her husband, was apprenticed at ;,siattinghatn but absconding from his master, he was taken and, loded the House of Correction; this c i rcumstance induced Austin to go to Leicester, .in order to prevail with, her husband to - retsina to Nottingham to effect the lad's liberation, which he did,. anti , they both tr ave ll e d b y t h e Le i cester coach on S.ittardity evening. The unfortunate woman. went shortly after to li6l - where she was met by Dewey, who shook her by the hand, gave her a kiss, and retired into his own apartment, where his wife was at the time; shortly after, h e to o k a ladle,' such as butch ers usua lly kill pigs' with, and returning into Austin's room, plunged the weapon into the poor .creature's side, so as to reach her heart; she gave 1010 acrenni, which brought in Dewey's wife, who found the 'poor. worn on the door, bleedingrofusely, and expiring with the. knife. sticking in her side. The murderer then kissed thyteceakd. • went to his wife's father and mother, and told them What he had done; he was soon after taken into custody, and on Sa turday an inquest was held at th e N e p tune tavern, and ver diet of " WilfUl Murder" :returned against him. At sir; o'clock on Monday morning, he was takcp, ,qnthe .Caraner'a warrant to the town gaol, preparatory to undeigoing his- trial at the Assizes.—(Lincoln Mercury.), The Hylton Join:he, Ciptftin HOWLETT steam. . packet, left Hamburgh on Saturday morning at half-past nine o'clock, and arrived at Gravesend on Monday evening at half: past seven o'clock—say in 58 hours. She'went from 'Gravesend to Cuxhaven in 52 hours. On Wednesday, WALLAcr's Sw s ono was brought here in a box, from Dumbarton Castle, on its Nay, to the,Tower of London. The venloval has occasioned, nor without reason, a good deal• of dissatisfaction in this part of ; the country, where the name of the immortal hero of Scotland. is cherished-with a peculiar regard.—.( Glasgow Paper.) . Monday morning, a t fi ve o ' c l oc k , 25 convictti. , men and boys, were conveyed from Newgate in a caravan't , :. Portsmouth, in order to he transported to • Bermuda s most of them for life.

The use of knives, as a weapon of injury,- has become alarmingly frequent; On Thursday week s two careers happened to quarrel at the Canal when the one stabbed ' the other in the fleshy part of_ the thigh.' The same day a young fellow fastened a quarrel upon. his father-in-law, residing in Carrubber's-close, and finished the altercation by stabbing , though not dangerously, in the side.
