MUSIC. A work of very considerable merit, entitled " The Lay," written by Mr. C. V. Incledon (son of the late Charles Incledon) has just ap peared. It consists of seven songs, set to music by Mr. T. 11. Severn, all of which have been sung with much applause at many fashionable parties. The son of the author, a youth of only about J 2 years of age, will, it is expected shortly appear in public. WINDSOR, AUG. 25. Yesterday the KING rode out in his pony phaeton, and the QUEEN took her usual exercise on horseback. Yesterday Lord and Lady JERSEY arrived, and had the honour of dining- and passing the evening with their Ma jesties This morning Lady EitsKINE and Sir CHARLES THORNTON returned to the Castle. ihis morning the KING inspected the 2d Regiment of Life Guards, the Grenadier Guards, a tro ,, p of the Royal Blues, and let Regiment of Guards. These reriments afterwards went through the usual parade movements and retired. The ()CIES, accompanied by her Ladiesand Gentlemen of the Corot, attended Divine Service this morning in St. George's Chapel. The Rev. J. GORE and the Rev. the Dean of WINDSOR read the service, and the Rev. W. LONG, the Canon in residence, preached an eloquent sermon from the text of the 6th chap. of Matthew, v. 1.1. The anthem, " I have surely built thee a house," BOYCE. Mr. SKEATS presided at the organ. This afternoon at Mur o'clock the KING and QUEEN rode out in an open carriage, accompanied by Lord and Lady JERSEY. To-morrow the KING will review the 2d Life Guards in the Home Park, and will be escorted to the ground by a Guard of Honour formed of a troop of the Royal Blues and Ist of Life Guards. The company on the terrace this afternoon was nume• rous and fashionable. COURT CIRCULAR. His 3IAJEs . ry, attended by Sir HERBERT TAYLOR, left town twenty minutes before seven o'clock, on Friday even.. ing, on his return to Windsor Palace. The KING gave audiences in the course of the afternoon, at St. James's, to the Hanoverian 'Minister and Viscount DUNCANNON. The KING will hold a Levee next Wednesday, at St. James's. The following notice was issued on Saturday, at the Lord Chamberlain's office :—"Notice is hereby given, that his Majesty's next Levee will be on Wednes day, the 28th inst." The Duchess of CUMBERLAND, accompanied by the Princes ALEXANDER and CHARLES of Sor . Ms, honoured the Archbishop of CANTERBURY with a visit on Friday afternoon, at Lambeth Palace. His Grace conducted his visiters through the principal parts of the edifice. The Royal Duchess and the Princes afterwards took their de parture for Kew. A meeting of the Conference on the affairs of the Ne therlands, was held on Saturday afternoon, at the Foreign Office. The Ministers who attended were occupied three hours in deliberation. There were present the Russian, Austrian, and French Ambassadors, the Prussian Minis. ter, the Baron de Wessenbure ; the Austrian Special Minister ; the two Dutch Special Plenipotentiaries ; Baron VERSIOLK and M. DEDICL ; and Viscount PALMERSTON. Despatches were received on Saturday at the Colonial Office from the Earl of 111ULGRAVE, the Governor of Jamaica; and from Mr. BaLroua, the Lieutenant- Governor of the Bahama Islands. The Archbishop of DUBLIN visited Ea') Uocs ou Saturday. SURREY THEATRE. The illaulger of this Theatre (aud deservedly so) con tinues to enjoy no small proportion of the public patronage. On Saturday a new melo-drama was produced, entitled the Felon of New York, adapted from the French by Mr. OSBALDI , ION. Like most of the French meld-dramas it contains improbabilities and exaggerations, hut taken as a whole, is likely, we think, to become a favourite. The principle character in the piece Anholt, the Felon, was sustained by OsitAnnisroN in. his usual admirable manner; VALE, as Jonquille, was as funny as ever; ROGERS, though out of his line was perfectly at home. Mrs. WEsi, and Mrs. WILKINSON, made the most of the little they had to do, and C. HILL, RU FALL, aud the 1 ttle sylph ViNceNr, came in for their share of the applause of a house crowded to the ceiling. The piece was announced by OSBALDIsTON for a repetition on Monday (this day) amidst the most unequivocal marks of approbation. JONATHAN BRADFORD is still as great a favourite as ever, and promises fair to verify our prediction, that it would have as great a run as Black Eyed Susan. The entertainments of the evening concluded with a laugh. able Farce, entitled the Lord Mayor's Fool, which called forth thunders of applause from the gods. POST OFFICE ABUSES.—HOLBEACH, AUG. :.?.1.-Notwithetantling the boat of the Duke of lltcumuzin that every attention is paid to the Post Office department, it is far from being in a state of perfection. Th , postage of a letter from Holheach to Wisheach (14 miles), if the letter be legally sent, is 10d. Of one from Holbeach to Feet (two miles), 1 Id. This is an inconve nience which has long been felt, and might easily be obviated.— Li itcela 3fereury. GREAT PROPERTY CASE AT CORK As ,,TzLs.—At the Cork Assizes, on Monday, the great pro perty case, between Mr. BECHER and Lord BANDON, was brought to a conclusion. The Jury returned a ver dict for the plaintiff, Mr. BECHER, 33,'250/., including the lands of Illthonra, calculated at 19 years' purchase. . . According to the last accounts from Toplitz, the meeting of the Emperor of Austria and the King of Prussia has been delayed in consequence of both Sovereigns being suddenly seized with fever.— Times. NEW STEAM NAVIGATION COMPANY.— On Saturday evening a number of Gentlemen interested in Mr. Stevens's New Plan for Propelling Steam Vessels, met at the National Gallery of Practical Science. Adelaide street, by the permission of its liberal and spirited pro prietors, for the purpose of taking measures to form a Com pany, to be railed " The Safety Stem Packet Company," which should use Mr. SteVenies patent paddles. About forty or fi'ty gentlemen, chiefly engaged in scientific pur suits, were present. Charles Toplis, Esq., Vice-President of the Mechanics Institution, having been called to the chair, Mr. &evens stated to the meeting the advantages of his paddles, which were at the time working on the piece of water in the room. He explained the principal ad vantages to be, the prevention of swell and of backwater, the saving of power, and consequently of fuel, and added that Dr. Birkbeek, in one of his lectures, had styled these paddles the pie plus ultra of invention ; and that Captain Durand, one of the Directors of the General Steam Na vigation Company, had stated in his evidence before the Committee of the House of Commons, appointed to in quire into Steam-boat Navigation, some two or three years hack, that his patent paddles were the only ones which would ultimately be used for propulsion on rivers and canals, although he had doubts as to whether they could be made available at sea. He (Mr. Stevens) would not eta( ^ into the reasons which made bum think these doubts ill-founded, as all that was proposed at present was, to establish a Company for the Navigation of the River Thames. His proposal was to give the use of his paddles to the Company without remuneration, till each share. holder had received 10 per cent., when the patentees pro posed to divide with the Company the remaining prefi es . Each shareholder was to have the privilege of travelling in the steam-vessel, first to be started free of cost. Several gentlemen present expressed their confidence in the success of the paddles, and resolutions were entered into for rais ing a capital of 3,000/, in shares of 25/., for building a steam-boat, to he propelled by the patent paddles, and to ply on the River Thames; and a number of ,bares was subscribed for on the spot. Thanks having been voted to the Chairman, in making his acknowledgments, be stated that his favourable opinion of Mr. Stevens's paddle had been confirmed by experiments he had witnessed, made with a boat of IS tons, the machinery of which had been worked by men, and which were decidedly successful. The meeting then broke up, evidently confident of speedily at taining their object of bringing the patent paddles into beneficial operation. HOUSE OF COMMONS. THE LAST MEMBERS.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.). CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. Montreal Papers to the 28th of July, arid Quebec to ►he 24th of July have been received at the North and South American Coffee-house. (From the Montreal Papers.) At a meeting of the coloured brethren inhabitants of this city it was uuanimously resolved : " I. That, as British subjects, we duly appreciate the blessings of the Constitution under which we have the happiness to live. _ _ . ‘; 2. That, as men and Christians, we must naturally feel anxious that the sacred blessings we enjoy should be extended to the habitable globe. S. We therefore contemplate, with a strong anxiety, the progress of the Bill which his Majesty's Ministers have introduced into Parliament for the total abolition of slavery in the West Indies." (From the Quebec Papers.) The weather `since last night has been warm, with some rain. The reports from the country respecting the crops are favourable. We believe that the award to Upper Canada, of one third of the revenue on importations by the St. Lawrence, cAlected in Lower Canada, is correct. (From the American Papers.) On the ISth of June Santa Anna published a manifesto, in which he gives plain intimation respecting the recent plot. Ile sap, " I have declared, in the face of the world, that my administration shall be mild ; but treason and perfidy shall not, on that account, escape chas tisement." The Government of Rio Janeiro has suspended its relations with the Charge d'Affairs of Donna Maria, and will immediately recruit its military force. This affair has given a check to business. Accounts from Elvag, by the French mail this morning, state that Don Miguel has given orders to assemble there a corps of four thousand men, composed of several detach ments in the Beira and th,. Alemtejo : they are to be in garrison there, and to make a diversion in the Algarves and in Estramadura. THE FUNDS. Contrary to expectation, we have no direct arrivals from Portugal as yet, but we are supplied with some reports from the bin tiers of Spain, that Dan Miguel's army, on its march to Lisbon, was disbanded. This account, as yet, we cannot believe. Bourniont is not a man to disband armies before he measures his sword with them; and be sides, so important au event would have been sent direct by the steamers. The King of Spain's death being near, si,,,eari confirmed by private letters. CoriNols opened heavy at Sti. to for Account. Foreign Securities arc also heavy. HALF-PAST ONE. We are credibly informed that accounts were received by the Pantaloon that Fort Saint Julien, in the Taus, has been taken possession off by the English ma rine., and that Donna Ahria's flag, with that of the English, was hoisted on the fort. We understand that the Dutch conference on Saturday evening was adjourned sine dic. Up to the present hour we have no fresh arrivals from Portugal. The thuds have been very heavy the whole of the morning, at Stia for the Account; at present they are 881 buyers, with very little business doing. The Foreign Market has been in the same state as that of the British. Portuguese Scrip has been dune at 191 premium ; it is now 20 : 19. - At Rio Janeiro the Stock lowered 7 per cent. Ex change 371. THREEO'CLOCK. Comola for the Account, 881. The number of shares at present subscribed for in the projected Bristol and London railway is 633. WIFE AND No WIFE.—A few days ago a simple-looking couple from Rochdale went to 'Middleton to be united in the holy bands of matrimony. They called at the Old Boar's Head Inn, where they met with some wags, who toll them that they might be married there by a license, without going to the church. A pretended license was produced, for which the bride paid down I/. .ss. A sham ceremony was then performed by a horse jockey ; an old pensioner officiated as clerk ; and an ostler gave away the happy and blushing bride. After the ceremony was over, a quantity of rum and ale was drunk ; and the worthy pair, conceiving that they were firmly rivetted with Hymen's chains, returned to Roch• dale. They lived as man and wife until Thursday last, when the hoax b e i ng discovered, they were compelled to subscribe to a separation from hod and board.— Halifax Express. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE, PLYMOUTH RACES, AUG. 21. The Races, it was said, were to have been honoured by the e resenc, of his Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex, whose sojourn at Si!tram, the seat of Earl Morley, is an event of annual anticipation as well as of disappointment This expectation, together with Cook and Meadows' bill of fare at the Theatre Royal, and the promised ascent of Graham in his coronation balloon, produced an extraordi nary addition to the usual number of visitors. Excellent racing, capital horses, and fine weather, have thrown a complete h irmnny over the festivities of the week, inso much, as that the balls, dinners, and concerts, have all had full attendance without depriving the theatre of highly respectable audiences. From various causes the ascent of Graham is now postponed to Tuesday next. The race ground is called Chelson Meadow, a spot of laud redeemed from the sea by an embankment, which forms a long side of a triangle. the other two bring formed by the:planta• tions of the Earl of Morley. Its peculiar situation affords every spectator an excellent view of the whole course, which is rather more than two miles in circuit.

The regatta this season failed in some respects from un toward events—uncontroulsble circumstances. A remedy for the future is pledged by its conductors. The inhabi tants and the visiters of the Plymouth awl Devouport Re gatta and Races, ard.ntly desire to be honoured with the personal patronage of their Royal Highnesses in the case of the Regatta. That of the Duchess of Kent and the Princess may be expected next year. It is to be hoped that the Duke of Sussex will be on the Plymouth Race Course in the year 183 t, to receive the homage of his countrymen. ARRIVALS OF GRAIN IN LONDON DURING LAST WEEK.

This opulent and distinguished Club, on Satnrday gave another silver cup, in addition to the usual below bridge in honour of the birthday of their august patron his MAJESTY. The Club is too well known, and the honour and influence of its meinbers too well admired and suffi ciently appreciated, to need any comment on its merits. Every thing was done on this, as on every occasion hereto fore, to ensure comfort to the friends and gentlemen of the Club, and we are happy to say, with all on beard, that never were exertions crowned with more success. The Royal Sovereign steamer wa, engaged to accompany the match, and left her mooring off the Tower with as elegant a company as ever graced a craft, and the anchor was dropped facing the Hospital, and preparations were made for the start.

The S.W., wind blew but slightly in the morning, but as the breeze fresh ened so did th e betting, and hundreds were sported on the occasion. The fast sailing qualities of the Sabrina put her foremost on the list, and so strong was the opinion in favour of this beautiful yacht that she was even backed at 2 to 1 agaitst-the field.

WHITBY AND PICKERING RAILWAY.- We are glad to find, that this work will boon be com menced. The directors are advertising for tenders ; and in a few weeks, the inhabitants of Whitby will have the pleasure of seeing the railway begun at their end of the line. The inhabitants of the district through which it is intended to run, look with great anxiety for its completion, justly anticipating the greatest benefits as the result.--.

On the gun being fired the Ala Jane had the advantage at the start, but all were well up, and cleared down slightly before the tide, there being a calm at the time. The breeze, however, freshened when they had got well under weigh, and the Virtorine took the shine out of the little Jane to windward, and in a few seconds after the Witch made a similar start. The Sabrina at Wool wich seemed " eager for the fray," and went gallantly before the wind into the first place. The coup d'ocil at thin time was grand in the extreme ; a sheet of canvass would have neatly covered the whole fleet. The moneeuvrim; was grand in the course of the different reaclic', although the continuil cry on board was that the "sailing" would he coming up ag tinst the ?loser, which now blew keenly. The three leading boats hauled in their wind frequently, and never, considering the disparity of tonnage, was better sailing shown than that of the little Witch. The uninitiated on board gave their best wishes to the later boat from the gond old English prin ciple—they wished she might win because she was such a little one ; but vain were their hopes. It was evident that she could not carry canvass enough to overhaul her lager rivals, hut gallantly did she make her way through the water; and when the breeze subsided but for an in stant she got in the advance to windward. At 21 minutes past two the Sabrina rounded the flag-boat at Gravesend, the Victorine at 24 minutes, the Witch at 24 minutes past, and the Ada Jane at 35 minutes past. The Sabrina never lost her advantage up, notwithstdnding the eft es of the Vielorine. E tch made their board and went about, but in making the points the Sabrina evi dently had the advantage. The Vicl'trinc evidently loot way by standing out too much, and the better part of the contest was between the Ada Jane and the Water Witch. At 23 minutes past seven the Sabrina rounded the d ig boat at Greenwich. at 27 minutes past the Victorinc followed, and the Water W itch at 3S minutes past. Mr. Harrison then mounted by the windlass and presented the cup. surmoun'ed by a gold crown. The duty he had to perform was a most pleasurable one ; it was to presem the winner with the valuable reward of superior merit, and never had merit Rhone with more advantage than in the splendid sailing of that day. Independent of having bestowed the pr ze on Mr. Gunston, it had afforded the ladies and gentlemen on board the highest gratifiettion. He repeated the pleasure he felt in presenting the trophy of victory to a gentleman whose name had baen known and respected as the owner of sailing craft for forty years. Mr. Gunston's heart was too full to return thanks, and he thought the presence of the highly respectable company on hoard had stimulated his exertions. The ladies then wal zed home to a good band, and each and every one (save the loserslexpres , ed their ,atisfaction. TIIE NIARKETS.-(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE. NEWCASTLE CORN MARKET—Aug 24.

At the Chelmsford :Sessions, last week, a I,bouret I , out Hadle gh r quested an order to see big intended ',ride. who W , is unfortunately confined in the }bore of Correctioli . A: Mary's frailties, it appeared, bad assumed a very ",sp= tion 'Me shape ;" and the officers of Hadlei4h, ‘elPWrsterf in the eGnsequencei of increasing. population, removed her to another parish, running all hazards of l o 4i np; the honour of a hero's birth place. " The course of true love never did run smooth," so Mary walked bAck, as John asserted, out of pure affection ; and, after a brief sojourn of four ln o t r i r r ec s,n o •as . sent to rusticate a mut . ttli in the If . ouse of e. tin The tiench said they never gave an order under suds eiretnnstaueen " But I wants 0 as her as how if she'll bein'me." said John, recollecting that in all his courtship it had never occurred to him to put that important question. The Bench remained inexorable, and the heartless hy , standers only giggled at his disappointment. " Unutterable things" at this moment stuck in John's throat, but quickly found an egress at his eyes. He left the Court, walked down the town, and touk a survey at the House of Correction, with feelings somewhat similar to a knight errant reconnoitring an enchanted tottress. lie then returned, and aga'n attacked the unrelenting hearts of the Magistrates:—" Pla'e, Zur, do let inc go— I wants to know if I shall put the banns up,—there's just three weeks afire she cums out, and then as how we cats get married and go hom,.—(Laught,r)." 111.1oisretATE—You can send that question in by the turnkq.—(Laughter.) Why there may be something in that—thought John, scratching his head and considering of it, there may be something in that, but then— Speak tome only with thine e;e4„ And I will speak with mine, and all those other little embellishments which ought to accompany such a question, would he lost—and be, I/113111_ bilious mortal, telt no desire to folio a , the custom of the potentates of the world, and woo by deputy. lie there fore abandoned that idea, for another had sprung up— " When she cums out, I spore she may cum to our parish a time we ar as'd ?" inquired he. " If she does she'll get three months more of it," re plied Mr. Archer. This came like a thunderbolt upon poor John ; he would venture no more ideas of his own, and when the Bench suggested that he should put up the banns on spe culation—for there was not much pro'lability of Mary's saying" No,"—he adowed it, and departed with a' heivy heart to seek for the Church Clerk of Chelmsford,— Essex Herald. Earl FORTESCUE is better. In the event of his death, Sir JAMES HAMBLYN WILLIAMS, of cloven) , Court, is spoken of by the Liberals for the successor of Lord EBRINGTON in the representation of the northern di.. vision of Devonshire. CHARLES KEsIBLE and Miss FANNY KEMBLE realized upwards of eleven thousand pounds sterling, the first season, by their joint theatrical exerti ons in the United States. They have now commenced a second season, and, apparently, with even increased sac cess. Mr. PRICE, the proprietor of the Park Theatre, in New York, by whom Mr. and Miss KEMBLE were originally engaged, states that the receipts on each night of their perfarmance have far exceeded his anticipation. They are not expected in England until next ye.ir. A fellow, who last week adopted the disgrace ful expedient of selling his wift, at Lan , down fair, was afterwards lodged in Bath gaol for getting drunk with the money. THE TRUTH.—We recently saw a letter from an unfortun de man who had addicted hitnsrlf to drinking as a solace ; it was to a boon companion, in these words : " My dear Tom,—l am alone to-night ; come and help me to destroy myself with some famous brandy." The note, when shown to us, was six we,hl old, and posthumous. _ Mr. SAYER, of Catlogan•place, near thi£ town, a g entleman in his 75th year, undertook, far a 'rifling wager, to walk the distance of four miles within. ‘he hour, which feat he accomplished yesterday evening, n 54 minutes. —Shrewsbury Chronicle. Considerable briskness is stated to prevail at the present time in the carpet trade at K , ddertnin!ter.

THE LAKES.—The late fine weather has led many families to these delightful scenes, and the ions, in the neighbourhood, particularly of Windermere, are more full of company than they have been for the last e!tt years.— Scotsman. A case of cholera occurred at Newport Pagucl on Friday week. The object was a young man, a dk charged prisoner from Colilbath Fields prison, who was in his journey to the North : he died the foliowine da d . Several other cases have since appeared, and up to Tours. day last nine have proved fatal. The National School, which is detached from the town, has been appropriated for an hospital. The races arc postponed, and the Mayor of Northampton has most judiciously taken precaution that all tramps passing through the town shall be examined, and that the lodging houses shall be daily visited by the police.--Leicester Journal.

KALKI3ItENNER, who is now returning front a musical tour in Germany, where he has been received, caressed, and his eminent talents admired in the most enthusiastic manner in all the towns he passed through. This is as it sh o uld be. Royalty, rank, and distinction exalt art, stimulate genius, and do honour to themselves, their age, and country by such encouraging marks of taste and approbation. The Highlands of Scotland have experienced a f , iendly invasion of visitors front all parts of Britain during the present summer. So great has been the influx, that much difficulty has been encountered in providing " entertainment for man and horse" at tke little High land inns. Amongst the freaks of ton, it is not impre. balite that an excursion in the terra incognita of the North may become even more " fashionable" than a sojourn amongst the vine-covered hills and gay regions of Fame. DREADFUL SUICIDE.—On Saturday morn= ing considerable alarm was excited in the Royal Artillery Hospital, Woolwich, iu consequence of a patient named Al'Gread being missing. Search was immediately made in all directions, when, horrible to relate, the unfortu nate man was found in a privy in the hospital ground, with his head almost severed from his body, and qui:, dead. S 1 determined was be to effect his purpose that he actually took off his coat and waistcoat, and tied the razor, which was the instrument of death, tight round his arm. 'The unfortunate man has ken in the hos pital for the last five months with a broken leg, and was up to the time of his death just enabled to walk with a stick. The body has been removed to the dead house, where it waits the Coroner's inquest. Na cause can he assigned for the rash act. CITY REGISTRATION.--The total number of votes registered in the verious parishes of the city of London is 8,011. The greatest number in any one parish is MO (St. Botolph, Bishopsgate); the next in Riint of numbers are those of St. Giles Cripplegate, St. Biu-olph Aldeate, St. Botolph Aldersgate, St. Bride's, and St. Dunstan's, Fleet-street. The 'Temple, Inner and Middle, registers 657 voters; and the parish which has the smallest number is that of St. Mary, Whitechapel, a hich is stated t , be four (?)

We regret to have this week to record the death of Mr. W. ATKA risos, innkeeper, of Sheffield, of that dreadful disease, hydrophobia. Having some property to dis t tr”e of at York, he proceeded to that city on Monday, and, after an interview with his solicitor in the evening, he retired to bed, his throat being swelled, the effect, as he imagined, of cold, and for which i:e took sonic restora tives provided by the relative at whose house he was staying. Not being better in the morning, he went to the surgeon who attended the family (Mr SwiticAtto) , arid l called who, on hearing the symptoms, felt convinced that Mr. AMINsON was afflicted with symptoms of hydropliosiii.
