A COCKNEY SPORTSMAN.—At theChelms ford Petty Sessions, last week, Cornelius O'Brien, tailor, of Liverpool-street, Bishopsgate-street, had been sum moned for shooting upon the lands of Thomas Smith, of Barking, without a license. Mr. Smith—l was not much afraid for the game, but I am inclined to think be was in pursuit of my poultry.—(Laughter.) I thought be was fond of a goose.—(Renewed laughter.) Defendant was convicted in the penalty of 20s. and costs, which the solicitor said should be paid.—Essex Herald. Old James Clare, the Woburn Poacher, was last week sent to Bedford gaol for the 32d time. He was on that occasion, committed for attemptin g to stab the mistress of Woburn workhouse, of which place he has latterly been an inmate. (This worthy would be a good companion for our friend Penn Burnett, at Wycombe, who has eaten about two score Christmas dinners in Aylesbury gaol for the same offence.)—Bucks Herald. POACHING.—OnIy five prisoners have this season been committed to our gaol, charged with this offence. The case of one of these is singular. Travel ling towards Ellesmere, he found a hare in a gin, which he seised and carried into that town, where he met a keeper, and, being tipsy, boastingly told him that he had taken one, and could, if he had a mind, take every other hare on the estate. The keeper immediately laid an information against him ; and a warrant was issued for his appearance on a certain day, which the prisoner thou g htlessly disregarded, and contin ue d j o bbi ng about the country in his trade as a gardener, till, unluckily, in the course of his rambles, he was employed by the Governor of our County gaol, in whose service he was s een by the constable of Ellesmere, who p u t t h e warrant into execution against him, and lodged him in prison. The proportion of persons committed for poaching this year, is vastly less than in any former season.—Skiews bury Chronicle. A subscription has been set on foot at Faver sham, and the sum of 141. collected, for the five Danish men who were picked up at sea and brought to Faver sham by Captain Donaldson, of the Betsey. It appears that Captain Donaldson bail seen the Danish vessel near him for some time during th e late gale, and being himself in distress, having sprung a leak which he was unable to step, the water having gained six feet on the pump, he imagined that the D inish vessel was coming to his assist ance. She, however, it appears , was seeking help also, and having started a plank, went down shortly after dark. It was a miraculous occurrence tha t Captain Donaldson saw the crew after they had taken to their boat. H e was enabled with great oifficulty to get them o n board his ship, the men being quite exhausted with fatigue ; but, after taking some refreshment, recovered, and were in turn of essential service to their deliverers; indeed, to this circum stance Captain Donaldson attributes the saving his own ship, which is of 180 tons burden. LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 7, 1833. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. A good deal of interest having been excited du ring the past week by the examination of three Jews, named Solomon Levi, Henry Levi, and George Levi, on the charge of having stolen a watch from an Irish shoemaker, named Davis, and Saturday having been the day appointed for the final exami nation, the justice-room was crowded to excess. The LORD MAYOR directed that George Levi, whose innocence Mr. Isaacs, his solicitor, had com pletely tstablishel,should appear in the witness-box. Davis said that his watch had been snatched out of his pocket on Saturday night, in Petticoat-lane, but he was too drunk to identify the person who had taken it. _ _ The LORD MAYOR, who suspected that Davis had been tampered with by the two prisoners, and that he had accepted a compromise, questioned the witness, who really appeared to be a humane person, and to have spoken as he thought. Davis said that he felt, as a man, that he should not be doing justice to insinuate that he had the least idea who the thief was. The LORD MAYOR said that the expected com promise no doubt influenced him. Davis—All I wanted was my property, and I don't think it any great crime to wish for that, without swearing that men were thieves, when I never recollect seeing them. _ _ The brother-in-laW of Davis swore that he was with Davis when the watch was snatched out of the pocket of the latter. Four men were passing, and one of them said, " Is that you, Davis ?" while another snatched the watch, chain, and seals. They all ran off. Witness did not think he saw either of the prisoners. George Levi deposed that Henry Levi's son called on Monday morning upon him, and said his father had a watch to dispose of, and witness called at the house and saw Solomon Levi, who pulled a watch out of his pocket and asked sixteen shillings for it. Witness offered fifteen for it, and the bar gain was made. He had no money at the time, but he called afterwards and saw Henry Levi, and paid him, and received the watch. Being in want of some silver afterwards, he pawned the watch at Barker's, where he was known well, and the article was stopped as stolen. The daughter of the last witness stated that she was present when the prisoner Henry Levi said that the matter would be settled for 3/. 12s. with Davis, and she produced a piece of paper, on which was that sum specified in the writing of the prisoner's brother-in-law. The LORD MAYOR considered this piece of paper as conclusive evidence of the compromise. The brother-in-law of Davis admitted that he had written on the paper, a person having called at the shop of Davis to ask what was the amount of the loss of the gold seals and key. Davis knew nothing about it, and witness, being aware of the money which had been given for it, did not hesitate to write down the sum. Davis—That was the amount the seals and key cost me, and all I NV anted was my own property. The LORD MAYOR—Aye, you are to have it when the bill is thrown out. Davis—l, hope I may get it, believe me, my Lord—(Laughter)—I don't want to hurt these poor men, and whether I get anything or not, I won't say that either of them robbed me. Henry Levi solemnly declared that he knew no thing in the world about the watch. The whole story, from beginning to end, was a fabrication. TheLoßcDanll,laAt'vo the R—Jd Bailey. oucansay that, and prove it, if you Henry Levi—l hope you will permit me to bail ? The LORD MAYOR—To bail, indeed ! No, no, you won't get an acquittal on that ground. If I had not sifted this case, the secret tribunal of the Grand Jurywould have thrown out the bill, but now I defy them, supported as your reluctant evidence is. The prisoners were then fully committed for trial. A gentleman, named Michael Brockleby was brought up, charged by a policeman with having been found lying in Thames -street, in a most beastly state of intoxication. He is about 50 years of age s and appeared very much ashamed of his situation, The officer said if he had known that the gentleman was a man of so much respectability he would have carried him to his house instead of wheeling him to the station-house in a dog's meat barrow.-_ ( Laugh ter.) The LORD MAYOR—Why, how is this, Michael, " how art thou thus forgot ?" Defendant—Why, my Lord, I " put an enemy into my mouth that stole away my brains."—(Laughter.) The LORD MAYOR—You see, my friend, how you are punished for this filthy and brutal error. You fall in the dirt ; you are wheeled along with flesh almost as sensitive as your own to a watch house ; you lie down with, perhaps, the most wretched of mankind ; you awake in horror ; you are guarded up to the presence of a Magistrate, and you are obliged to admit it all, and to pay five shil lings penalty. The defendant shook his head amidst great laugher. The LORD MAYOR—Ah, Mr. Smith, what am I to call this at your time of life The officer—l am sorry I accidentally exposed the gentleman, my Lord. The LORD MAYOR—Not at all—not at all. I3ring me all the drunken gentlemen you can find, and I shall be able to render assistance to many a starving family.—(Laughter.) Mr. Smith made reparation by anubling the penalty upon himself, and departed to quench the conflagration in his stomach with a large bowl of Hunt's roasted corn, which his Lordship advised him speedily to administer. motion at this office, and obtained the assistance of Gardener, the officer, by whom the prisoner was taken int,, custody in Maiden-lane. The prisoner declined making any defence, and was fully com mitted for trial. FURIOUS DRIVING.—John Robins, the driver of the hackney cabriolet No. 400, attended to answer to a complaint laid by Thomas Lynham, a hackney coachman, charging him with wanton and furious driving, and endangering his life on the 23d of September. Lynham stated that, on the day in question, he was standing with his coach on the Haymarket stand, when the defendant drove up at a gallop, on the wrong side of the road. He attempted to get out of the way, but without success, and the wheel of the cab passed over his foot, and seriously hurt him. The defendant said that he gave the complainant plenty of time to get out of the way. The defendant was fined 5/. and costs, or, in de fault of payment, was committed to the House of Correction for six weeks. QUEEN-SQUARE. THE ADVENTURES OF A LEG OF PORK.—A man named Leathley, residing at Fulham, attended in support of a charge preferred against Ann his wife, for stealing a leg of pork, which the husband stated was the property of one Henry Ordell. The case was more than ordinarily laughable, and, from what could be collected from the parties, who oc casionally all spoke together, was as follows :—The said Mr. Leathley had long since had convincing proof that his wife was literally " the better half," and at length growing heartily tired of his mode of life, one day unceremoniously left his home, and took up his residence in a one pair back apartment in a house where the above named Mr. Henry Orden was also a lodger. These were not the only resi dents of the upper tenements, for in the second pair front lived a buxom widow named Dwindle ; but although Dwindle by name, not so her person, which had gradually increased since her " dear hos banu's death," to about some fourteen or fifteen stone, but withal she was lively, gay, and active, and her volubility kept pace with her vivacity. To be brief, upon this fat, but yet fair dame, Mr. Leathley cast a languishing look, and often, as re port says, was heard to declare with a sigh, " Ah what a dear creature is that Mrs. Dwindle !" and in the same breath to curse the termagant disposition of his wife. No opportunity was lost nor excuse wanted to catch a glance at the widow, and he so far insinuated himself into the good graces of the lady, that, instead of creeping up stairs with the tea pot in his hand, and, in as soft and pleasing a toned voice as he could command, craving her indul gence to fill his pot with hot water, he ultimately took his tea tete a tete with the buxom dame. Slander had magn!fied the indulgence of Mrs. Dwindle to something rather heinous, and it at length reached the ears of Mrs. Leathley, who adopted a mode of revenge as novel as it was ludicrous. Yesterday her husband sent a leg of pork well stuffed and sea soned, with plenty of potatoes, to the baker's, in order to have an opportunity of inviting Mrs. Dwindle to dinner ; and as the entertainment was to be served up in Mr. Henry Ordell's apartment, that gentleman, as a matter of course, was to farm one of the party. This by some means had come to the knowledge of Mrs Leathley, and she, with her usual shrewdness and cunning, contrived to ob tain possession of the leg of pork when baked, and to convey it unsuspected to her own domicile. Shortly after her husband repaired for his dinner, and asked the baker if it was done ? " 0 yes," replied the man of dough, " it's done brown, but your wife has just taken it away." " The deuce she has!" exclaimed the enraged husband; " then I am done brown out of my dinner." So exasperated was Mr. Leathley that he caused his wife to be brought to this office on a charge of stealing the leg of pork with the etceteras; and en being informed that his wife could not be charged with robbing him, he wished to make it appear that Mr. Henry Ordell was a joint proprietor in the pork. The case, how ever, was not satisfactorily proved, and Mrs. L. was acquitted, much to the chagrin of her husband. HATTON-GARDEN. A young man of reduced appearance was charged with having eaten sundry portions of roast beef end pie, and drunk a pot of half-and-half, at the expense of Mr. Ains, cook-shop-keeper, in Gray's Inn-lane, The fellow entered the shop with great coolness, and consequentially called for a dinner, which he discussed in very good humour. lie then watched his opportunity, and was bolting out of the shop, when the waiter caught him by the tail. The dinner amounted to 2s. 2d. The prisoner, who said he had lost his purse, was held to bail. MAR YLEB ONE. A fashionable master-tailor, somewhat advanced in years, who lives in the neighbourhood of Berners street, Oxford-street, charged a young woman of interesting appearance under the following circum stances :—The defendant, who is about 24 years of age, had lived under the protcction of the com plainant for nine years, during which time he al lowed her 3001. a year. She had three children, two of whom complainant had lately taken from her. He now cohabited with another young woman, and the defendant had repeatedly annoyeehim, and on a late occasion assaulted him. The defendant said she was seduced at a very early age by the complainant, whereby she had lost a good situation. He had been guilty of such unfeeling conduct that any woman of spirit would resent it.—Discharged on promise not to offend again. GUILDHALL. INTENDED CHANGE BY THE LORD MAYOR ELECT IN TILE HOURS OF BUSINESS.-Mr. Alderman FAREBROTHER informed the Solicitor to the Mint, that in entering upon his duties as Lord Mayor, he intended to alter the daily hour of sitting ; and if the Mint Solicitor, or any other prosecutor, did not attend at the hour fixed, he should immediately dis charge the prisoner. lie should take the chair at the Mansion-house always punctually at ten o'clock in the morning, and rise at twelve; and he believed this would enable all persons who had occasion to come to him, to do so ►with the least intermission to their ordinary business. The Mint Solicitor thought the arrangement would give great satisfaction to the public. The Clerk observed, that in searching over some old papers an old summons had been found, in which the parties ware required to attend before the Lord Mayor at seven o'clock in the morning. BOW-STREET. ROBBERY BY A SERVANT.—Esther Branstone was charged with stealing a soup-ladle and two tea spoons, the property of Mr. Robert Garrard, silver smith, of Parton -street, Haymarket ; three shirts, the property of a German named Le Brun ; and five shirts and a silver snuff-box, the property of a Mr. Spilsbury. It appeared that the two latter gentlemen were living in the house of Mr. Garrard, where also the prisoner lived as a servant. She had lived there for 15 months, but in consequence of suspicions having attached to her, she was dis charged about a week ago, when it was discovered that the above-mentioned articles were stolen. The property was all traced to a pawnbroker's in the neighbourhood, where it had been pledged by the prisoner. Mr. Garrard, in consequence, gave infor- MARLB OR 0 UGH- S TREE T. Joseph Watson was put to the bar, before Messrs. CONANT and CHIA➢IBERS, charged with having stolen a large quantity of property, consisting of silver spoons and wearing apparel, from a house in Berwick-street, and a female named Reddington, living at No. 3, Hopkins-street, and a boy, were also charged —the first as receiver, and the latter as an accomplice. From the evidence of several witnesses, it ap peared that the prisoner was one of that class of thieves termed sneaks, and had contrived to ob tain an entrance, without being perceived, into the house in question, from which he stole about thirty silver spoons and a general assortment of male and female wearing apparel. The spoons he pledged at Mr. Sowerby's, Long Acre, and the wearing apparel he disposed of to the female pri soner. The evidence not being sufficiently clear against the woman and the boy, they were discharged. The other prisoner was fully committed. ORSHIP. STREET. SUND AYTHIETES.—IVin.Hedger,!ateIy an omnibus conductor, was charged with committing a burglary last Sunday, in the house of Mrs. Harlo;,Ve, adjoining the retail brewery of Mr. Jones, in Somerset-place, Hoxton. The place was entered while the family were at chapel in the evening, and on the same night a gentleman's house not one hundred yards distant, was robbed. Mr. Bo xman, a tradesman opposite the brewery, saw ,two suspicious-looking men enter Mrs. H at lowe s doo r w i t h a k ey . He went over, determined to ascertain whether the men had any business there, and on knocking at the door a man, whom he be lieved t o b e the prisoner, opened it,and having looked him earnestly i n t h e f ace , struc k hi m a violent blow and rush e d away.

Witness had, at the request • of his friend Mr. Hamilton, agreed to accom pany Mrs. Hamilton and her children to Scotland, - and, with the exception of a few minutes on Satur , day evening, he remained below either in the cabin of the gentlemen or the ladies' cabin. He remained in the latter from about four o'clock on Saturday 4f , ernoon. On one occasion he went to get refresh ments for the ladies and children ; on another to col lect some things together ; and a third to make • orne inquiry as to the real situation of the vessel, with a view to calm them (the ladies) and his own fears for their safety. About two o'clock on Sun day morning, the vessel then being aground and perfectly quiet, several of the passengers came down from the deck ; and though he (witness) cannot recollect the exact language they used, he knows that they stated that the lead had been cast,. and t hat there was not more than two feet of water round the vessel; that there were men on the shore with lights ready to receive them, and smooth water towards the land ; that there would be no difficulty in reaching the shore, and-that the passengers were to get ready to go on shore. Mr. Logan, one of the passengers, told witness and the other passen gers that the Captain had told him that the title was. ebbing, tali that they would soon be able to walk o shore without wetting their feet. At this time the passengers, particularly the ladie', who he had as serted took refreshments, and had selected the few things which they wished to take with them, were fully ready, and anxious to go on shore, but the information that the tide was ebbing calmed their minds, and particularly quieted the fears of the females. Witness continued satisfied on the subject until four o'clock, or it might be later, when Mr. Logan jumped up, and calling for the steward, said, " Steward, tell the Captain I am sure he is mistaken ; I am sure it is flowing, and not ebbing;" and repeating, "I am now sure he is wrong, for 1 hear the title beating against the vessel, and she is becoming lively." On his attention being drawn to this fact, he with the other passengers very quickly discovered that the vessel was again moving, and in a short time after wards she began to roll and kept striking heavily against the sand. The Captain then went into the gentlemen's cabin, anti called for the almanack, and inspected it to ascertain the state of the tide. Mr. Logan also inspected the almanack, and the Captain admitted that he was wrong, and also that the tide was indeed flowing and not ebb ing. At the time the almanack was referred to he heard the men take out the boat ; in doing which they broke the glass in the skylight of the gentle men's cabin, and with every wave that broke over the vessel the water continued to pour in in quantities. It was - the same in the other skylight. He had previously heard Mr. Logan tell the mate to put a tarpaulitig over the broken skylight, but this was not done. Shortly before the last sea broke over the vessel the skylight of the ladies' cabin wes blown away. A heavy sea then broke over the ship, and filled the ladies' cabin with water. There were then in it Mrs. Pyne, Mrs. M'Queen, Master C. Pyne, Mrs. Hamilton, Miss Hamilton, Master Hamilton, Miss Roach and Master Roach, Mrs. Cor meek and child, Mr. Davis, and witness. At the moment the sea broke in, Mrs. Hamilton seized his (witness's) hand, and entreated him not to leave them, and he was in the act of assuring her that he would not, when the sea broke in and buried them in darkness, and, with the momentary opportunity afforded him of seeing and feeling, he was satisfied that the water came in from above, and not below. Witness had no recollection of what took place af terwards, nor was he personally aware how he was saved ; but he understood he had been drawn through the skylight of the cabin, by one or two of the men on board. Just before the heavy sea broke in, the ladies and children were huddled together in one berth. He attributed the loss of life which had taken place to the negligence of those whose duty it was, particularly when told so, to secure the skylights. Witrie,s protected his own life by clinging to a rope attached to the mast, and got on shore, where he experienced the kindest at tention from the Rev. H. Browning, and the Rev. Mr. Holloway. The witness then described the finding of the body of his friend Mrs. Hamilton, her children, and the other sufferers, and concluded by saying that he had on board a paper parcel con taining some clothes, and in the pocket of one of the pairs of trousers was is purse containing eighteen sovereigns, neither of which were restored to hint, nor could he find it among the luggage brought on shore, though other clothes were found among the property brought on shore. At the termination of this witness's evidence, the inquiry was adjourned. (PRICE 713.) self was taken into custody in a few minutes. In the hat was a shirt belonging to Mrs. Harlowe's grand son ; and a handkerchief, containing some silver spoons, belonging to her, was found near the place where the pri , oner was captured. Committed for trial. UNION HALL. MATERNAL AFFECTION.-3L Pettit, a professor of language , , was charged by the parish officers with refusing to maintain an illegitimate child, of which a genteel looking young woman said he was the father. The defendant said he had offered to take the boy under his protection; but the mother refused, alleging that he wanted to take him to Fiance. The parish officers said that as the father had made such a defence they should interfere no farther. Mother—Then I shall wear my fingers to the bone for the maintenance of my child before I let it be torn away from me The Magistrates pointed out to her the conse quences of not permitting the father to have the cus tody of the child; but she was deaf to all remon strances on the subject,and left the office with the boy. LOSS OF THE EARL OF WEMYSS. In pursuance of the order issued for the investi gation of the loss of the Earl of Wenlyss, the fol lowing Magistrates assembled at the Hare Arms, at Docking : Frederick Hare, Esq. (Chairman); the Rev. John Hare, Captain Davey, R.N., D. Hoste, Esq., E. Rolfe, Esq., and the Rev. H. North. Captain Nesbit, the Master of the IVemyse, was the first witness called—He stated that he left Lon don on the 29th of August, having on board nine teen passengers, male and female. On Saturday, the 31st, about two o'clock, he passed the Dudgeon. It was moderate weather, and continued so until six o'clock, when a breeze sprung up from the north east, and continued fresher until it became a hurri cane. He then ordered the mainsail to be reefed, and in so doing the topping lift broke, which caused the mainsail to split. Witness then went on to state the condition of his sails, and contended that they were in perfect repair when he left London. The Leith Company were the owners of the vessel. Mr. M‘Murton, the agent, got all the sails repaired to his satisfaction. The vessel drifted in the south-west direction, without any sail set, until about four o'clock, when he came to with both an chors in five fathoms of water. He knew that he was upon the Norfolk coast, but could not tell upon what part of it. The anchors sometimes held and sometimes gave way, until the vessel got into three fathoms of water. The vessel drew eleven feet of water, and accordingly struck abaft, in consequence of which he slipped the cables in order to get her head round to the land. She grounded about half past ten, PM. the 31st. At that time he supposed the tide to be ebbing : he judged so from having seen a light two hours before from the shore, which he supposed was a signal for him to slip his cable, as it was high water, but he subsequently under stood it was a signal made by the Coast Guard. Notwithstanding he held on at anchor, and did not slip until the vessel struck, he not choosing to run her on shore; but it was nor from any want of know ledge of the coast. In different parts of the vessel the water varied from one to three fathoms. From that period until two o'clock A.M. on Sunday the vessel became more steady, and the water varied from one to eight feet. lie hail never been re quested by any person on board to send the passengers on shore, and, if such a request had been made, he could not have done it. At half-past two he hoisted the boat seat, and tr ed to have com munication with the people on shore. He used the boat astern, and found that all would not do; that he could have no communication. The men in the boat made a signal to have the boat back again, in doing which they pulled her stern out. He tried the pumps several times, and, at three o'clock in the morning there was no water in the ship. The sea was coming in breakers over the ship. He broke one pane of glass in the skylight in the foremost cabin. The splay of the sea washed him, but no solid water. About eight A.M. (to the best of his knowledge) he went down to the ladies' cabin, and at that time there was no water there. The ladies were then standing upon the cabin floor, and he said, " Ladies, keep yourselves quiet, for in two hours the tide leaves, and I would fain hope you will be able to walk on shore." He then returned upon deck, and in five minutes' time she filled from a leak in her bottom, which he has since found was from the keel giving way. The sea broke over her and filled her completely in an instant, in the time that he craw led from the companion to the mast. All the skylights had been covered with painted cloth, made for the purpose, at eight o'clock on Saturday, and continued to be so until after the wreck, when the sea washed them off the deck. The hatchway was battened down, except the space left for the companion-ladder. He gave no directions about the ladies being placed in the upper berths. He has every reason to believe, and thinks that if the keel had remained whole and no leak occurred, he should have been able to have got the passengers safe on shore. If the vessel had not sunk from the leak in her bottom he does not think that she would have taken in water enough above to fill the cabin. To the best of his judgment believes it was eleven A.M. when he left the vessel. David Muckle Reid stated that he was mate to the Earl of IVemyss smack, which passed the Dudgeon at two o'clock on the morning of the 31st of August. The wind was from the south-west, and blew a stiff breeze, with showers, but got calm about five, and continued so until seven, when it blew violently, and the vessel pitched very heavy and lost the stern boat. The statement of this witness during the greater part of his evidence was merely corroborative of that of the last wit ness. He went on to state that, after the vessel struck, he went into the ladies' cabin and saw about two inches of water on the floor. It ap peared to be coming from underneath, and some was also coming through the skylight which was partly broken. On going on deck he saw the sailors removing some of the bedding from the forecastle, and saw the gentlemen rushing from the cabin. He (witness) was at this instant struck by a wave, which knocked him down, and on his recovery observed two sailors standing by the after cabin and lamenting that all the ladies had been drowned. They were engaged at the time in putting down a stick in hopes that some person would lay hold of it. He (witness) nut down his legs for the purpose, but could feel none of the suf ferers. He was not ten minutes out of the cabin when it filled. On Saturday last a further number of house holders in Stimford who had voted at the last election in opposition to either of the candidates who are considered the Marquis of Exeter's nominees, received notices to quit the premises they hold under his Lordship,—Stam ford Mercury. ANECDOTE OF DR. PARR.—Many able fi iends of Dr. Parr have described his peculiarities, and that apparent disregard to etiquette which he whimsically prat. tiled, as being to attract notice ; but there was in his charac ter a fund of good nature which often called forth feelings at once of regard anti kindly ridicule, Out few could rclish more than himself. On the evening that I dined with him at Lot d Blessington's, he had his pipe brought in as usual after dinner ; and the set vants, not being accus tomed to such a ceremony in the house, had neglected to provide him with a basic The Doctor, however, merely noticing the omission, rose, and going to the sideboard, which was gorgeously ornamented with gold and silver vessels, brought away a golden chalice, and placing it ar his feet, found, till a basin was brought, that it answered the purpose equally well.—Autobiography of John Gai t., MR. MARTIN, THE PAINTER. ---Our Brussels correspondent last week made mention of the exhibition lately opened in that city, and of the general admiration expressed at Mr. Atirtia'd " Fall of Nineveh." We are now happy to announce that our countryman has been appointed Historical Painter to the King of the Belgians. " vous conferant cette distinction," writes his private secretary, " sa Majeste se plait a rendre lliZ juste temoignage a vos talons." On reading this, a pain ful consciousness came over us of the old truth, that a prophet—but the proverb is somewhat musty. It is, however, worthy to be observed, that here is a man, whose fame has reached from Indus to the Pole, and has been honourably distinguished by snore than ono crowned head, whose great original powers his country men are agreed in admiring, created historical painter to the King of the Belgians, before he has been thought wor thy by our Academicians of being admitted even an reso elate. We have heard that there are some formalities to be observed on such occasions ; that it is a necessary con dition that the painter should ask for admission ; if this he true, we hope Mr. Martin will rest content with his universal fame and foreign honours. Such a law is a disgrace to the Academy ; its diplomas should be v:,‘!tm.• tardy conferred—not humbly solicited.. Athowain. At this stage of the proceedings Mr. Ashurst applied for permission to cross-examine the witnesses on the part of the relatives of the deceased, and, after some discussion, the Magistrates issued a war rant for the detention of the captain and mate, upon a charge to be investigated after the termination of this inquiry. Mr. 11. Garch stated that he was a passenger on board the Earl of Temps smack from London to Leith. On Saturday, the 31st of August, early in the morning, a strong gale of wind arose, and about six o'clock, A. M., the stern boat was washed away. He was then in the gentlemen's cabin, and heard the cry, " The stern boat is gone," and the noise occa •ioned thereby. At the same time he heard from the people on deck that the sails had been blown away. He remained in his berth until about nine o'clock, when, in consequence of the water having DUEL BETWEEN TWO FRIENDS.
