A gentleman upon the point of going to France, verl..o has taken at least 1,200 Hygean Pills, was with me last night. He has received the greatest benefit, for a complication of disorders, and has been under a number of Nl.D.'s, none of whom could do him any good. This gen tleman has been very particular in attending to the printed directions, and has absolutely been living on milk al the time that he has been taking them. He declares he will take them to France with him, and make them as public as possible. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. The pensioner said that when he got the prize money, he first wet one eye, and so he thought he could riot do less than wet the other ; he was, to speak the truth, three sheets in the wind. The accused party said that they were both drunk at the time, and that he had no recollection of what had happened. The latter fact having been confirmed by other testimony, the accused was discharged, and the pensioner was advised to get out of town before he lost all his prize money. THAMES-POLICE.

A poor woman came to me that had been some time at the London Hospital, and said she was recommended to take the pills ; she had been taking calomel for some ime past, but could get no relief, therefore she was deter mined to go through a course of the Hygean Medicine, and purchased some of me, but immediately took them to the boys at the Hospital, and they pronounced them to be nothing but calomel, therefore they told her the pills that they would give her would bt sure to cure her, and -ure enough they did, for the next dose she took of their pills was the last; the person that recommended her to me told me that she was no more. A Gentleman in Mile-end-road, with all his family of several children, could get no real relief from a regular doctor. He told me that he was paying a large sum annu ally to a professional man, and he really slid believe he was picking, his packet. He has administered the Vegetable Un'vessal Medicine to all his family, and his lady is recommending them to all her neighbours. In consequence of their receiving such a substantial benefit they are determined to have no other medicine than the Hygean pills, which they so much esteem. The next case I shall mention is a lady near the Tower, who had laboured under a complication of disorders for the last fourteen years, and, who called at my house to make inquiry about the astonishing cures which have been per formed by Mr. Morison's Universal Medicine, and as she was well acquainted with me for some years, she could place confidence in the veracity of my word. I gave her a detail.d account of the wonderful good it had done me. and lent her the Morisoniana, requesting her to inspect it it very minutely. In a few days she sent for a I Is. packet, and went through a regular course, and so strictly did she pay attention to the directions, that in one month she came to thank me for my attention to her case, and declared that the Hygean pills had done more for her in one month than all the medicine she had taken for the last fourteen years. She said that she would always keep them in her house, and recommend them to her friends, for they had made a perfect cure of her. Mr. -, her husband, immediately commenced taking them. He had very recently had an apoplectic fit, and found relief. He has no fear of the return of his disease, and has no doubt the pills have prevented the return. The next ease is a gentleman's daughter, in Bedford. square, whom I have known from her infancy ; she was always a very delicate young woman, therefore I embraced ehe opportunity of calling on her father to inquire how his children were. He told me he expected to lose one in a decline, for she was given over by all the doctors, and he had this moment paid a M. D., in the parlour, between eighty and ninety pounds, and she was worse than when he undertook to cure her. He bad just pronounced her incurable, begging, at the same time, that she might be permitted to die as easily as she could, as they could do no more fur her. I was desired to take a seat in the parlour, and my friend would see me immediately. He had no idea that I came to recommend Mr. Morison's Vegetable Uni versal Medicine, but I immediately inquired the particu lars respecting the young lady. Her father said it was all over with her new, for, the last, M.D. had pronounced her incurable. I, nevertheless, urged the necessity of at least a trial of Mr. Morison's Hygean Pills. Her father said that it was of no use, but referred to the mother. It was in vain, however, to say anything to her, for she would not hear so much as the mention of them ; there fore, after a long conversation, I bid them farewell. When I returned home, I reflected on the importance of saving a life that might prove valuable, and the awful consequences of n,glecting to exercise the power that God in his providence has thrown in the way to save it, and at the same time made up nay mind to pay another visit. Ac cordingly, the next day, after breakfast, I walked to Bed ford-square, and found them just sitting down to breakfast, and of course, being an old friend, I was asked into the room, and as my business was urgent, I introduced the business of the number of cures the Hygean Pills had performed,and in very similar ca , es. The lady said they had been recommended from another quarter, but she was sure they would be of no service to her, and to prove what she said, she requested me to put my ear to her breast, and I might easily feel her heart beat like a ham mer. I was very much surprised, but was thoroughly convinced in my own mind that she would be recovered by Mr. Morisorr's llvgean Medicine. They were all against it, but I urged the necessity of trying them. They wished her to die as easy as she could ; as she was persuaded by her medical adviser. I then re quested she would indulge me by reading the "11Iorisoniana" at her leisure hours, and she said she certainly would do herself the pleasure of gratifying me the next day. I left the hook, and promised to call in one week. I called according to promise, and found her parents very low in spirits respecting their daughter. I told them to cheer up, and that I would venture to say that their daughter would recover, if she would abide by the directions given by Mr. Morison, and requested at the same time that she would call on Mr. Morison at his house. She promised to do so. 1 attended at the time appointed, and found that the principles of the Great Hygean had shaken her resolutions ; likewise her parents. The father said he was determined to m rice up his mind to permit her to use her own judgment ; therefore, he would leave it to her ; and said, my friend, you shall have it from her own mouth. She was called into the parlour, and after taking a seat, she appeared more like a corpse than a living person. Her father said to her Mr. Coverly wishes you to say whether you have made up your mind to try Mr. Morison's Vegetable Universal Medicine. I will thank you to say what you thought of the Morisoniana. Sir,—l do declare 1 cannot express my feelings. (Her eye appeared to brighten and voice was very distinct and clear.) I, with pleasure, at this moment declare to you I am satisfied with Mr. Morison's theory, and will go through a course without fear. I have made up my mind, I will begin immediately. I assure you I felt my self very much gratified, and said, I am quite persuaded they will cure you. She purchased a 11s. packet, and of course found herself very poorly at first, but when she had got over the first sensations the difficulty was over, and she continued, with cheerfulness, until she had increased to the amount of twenty every dose. The next visit I made, I was surprised to find her mind lively, and her hopes increased, and when I called next week, I found her quite another person in appearance, and by her deter mination to pay strict attention to Mr. Morison's regular tions, to eat no salted meat or salted fish, and in par ticular to refrain from taking any spirits, she is now quite another person, and in less than three months hail, with her husband, given the sum of 5001. for a business in the country, and is repeatedly behind the counter attending the business. The next case I shall report is Mrs. a lady near the Tower, who has laboured under a very severe afflic tion of the passing of gall stones. I was desired to call on her at and after a little conversatton, she showed me a box of stones, some of them were as big as the top of my little finger. I viewed this box of curiosities, and felt myself very thankful that it was not my case. I lent her the Practicle Proof, and after she had read it, she agreed to take them, and in a little time her son came for more pills, and declared the Vegetable Universal Medicine had done for her what no other doctor could do, for it had cost her a large sum of money for advice, and she was the same as when she first began. The Hygean Pills had reduced the stones into sand, and she intended to con tinue to take them, and I have no doubt but they will be of the most essential service so her. I will just mention that a gentleman shoemaker who was very much afflicted with the rheumatism in the hips and his wife with gene ral debill ity , both in one month found themselves quite recovered from their inability, and have left off taking them, quite satisfied of the utility of keeping the Hygean Pills always by them. The next case is a German gentleman, who was given over by a number of the faculty, and bad i been recom mended by the father of the person who went into business. When he came ti' me he could namely stand, but in three months has recovered his inabillity, and now is following his business. His lady likewise has been taking them all the time of her pregnancy, and is now doing well, and they say they will recommend them wherever they can. They likewise continue to keep them in the house. If I were to report every case that has come under my notice, you would soon fill a volume with cases of small import, such as tick-dolereux, urinary obstructions, piles, lurnb igo, or extreme costiveness, &c. &cc. &c. therefore, I shall just say I visited a gentleman, at the west end, who positively told me that his own physician begged of him not to mention names, and he would without hesitation inform him that all his family, who are now in the country, are in the habit of taking them. In fact the greater part of those that have taken them once, tell me, they never IMPERIAL BANK OF LONDON.

On Wednesday l a st, at 12 o'clock at noon, Air. Henry Young, and three professional gentlemen, were on their way to Richmond in a pbaeton and one: within ten minutes' drive of the Green the reins broke near the bit, and the horse suddenly took fright, and sprang for ward at a most rapid pace. Mr. Young, who drove, de termined to keep his seat; but the three other gentlemen sprang from the vehicle, leaving Mr. Young in, whom they entreated to follow their example. The horse kept the same pace for about a quarter of a mile, when, coming into contact with a gate leading into a field, he made an attempt to leap over, but the shafts of the vehicle striking against one of the posts, it was shattered to pieces, and 111 r. Young, who had all this time kept his seat, was thrown with great viulence against one of the iron braces of the gate, and received a most severe wound in his fore head. One of the three gentlemen above mentioned had by this time overtaken him, and found him its a state of complete insensibility. With the assistance of some work men, who were in an adjacent field, he was conveyed to a neighbouring house, when a medical gentleman Was promptly in attendance, and every remedy applied; but we are sorry to say that there is very little hope of his rocovery. The other gentlemen escaped with little or no injury. entered tho parlour in a very filthy state. The gentleman finding it very inconvenient either to sit or stand, thought proper to lie down at full length on the hearth-rug, where he soon forgot the adven tures of the night in a heavy sleep, from which the iespectable part of the corn-cutter's family disturbed him, in order to transfer him to the more appro priate air of the station-house. This, however, would not have been done if the corn-cutter had not kicked up such a row in the house that it was thought necessary to put both in the same place of entertainment. Upon being brought to the Justice room they looked as if they had been rolling in the same kennel. The mother-in-law of the corn-cutter had no coin plaint to make against Mr. Arnott, who had been guilty of no offence greater than that of daubing the rug on which he had lain like a hog with his dirty clothes. The other defendant, however, who was in the habit of annoying his wife whenever he got drunk, was doubly offensive on the present occa sion, and assaulted the witness when she expostu lated with him. The LORD MAYOR asked what the defendants had to say, if they were able to say any thing ? Mr. Arnott said it was quite a mistake to say he was drunk. He was perfectly sober, upon his honour. The LORD MAYOR—Where did you happen to meet with your companion ? Mr. Arnott stared at his little dirty associate, and said—Meet this person. 'Pon my honour I don't know on earth. I know nothing of him, my old boy.—(Great laughter.) The LORD MAYOR—You are still drunk, sir, and I shall send you back until you come to your understanding and a proper sense of your disgraceful situation. The corn-cutter--I can tell your Lordship I met him on the night crawl this morning, in a public house in the garden, and after we lashed for some time, I say, Simmons, my boy, says he, we'll go to another crib, and [Rive a little more. So we went down to the house of a fighting-man, and there we had a matter of five bowls of hot punch and plenty of steamers, and as we were blowing our backy, what does he do but he makes one of the pugilistics a present of three sovereigns. So after this dose we were neither of us fit for much, so we went off in a cab ; but the blackguard cabman had been lushing about, and we hadn't got far when he spilled us into the mud. Well, my Lord, whenever I get my whack, off I go to the City, to see my children, and I thought it too bad to leave my learned friend in the dirt, so I brought him to my mother-in-law's, to dry him.—(Great laughter.) Upon that my wife and she kicked up a rumpus, and sent for an officer, and here we are, two wretched unfortunate m an i acs , before you.—(Laughter.) The LORD MAYOR asked Mr. Arnott whether he had any recollection of the places in which he had been drinking ? The defendant shook his head, and said—No, my Lord; but I believe—that is, I think— I took a little too much of something.—(Laughter.) The LORD MAYOR—I dare say you paid for the entertainment ? Mr. Arnott—Very likely. I re member I had 8/. or 9/. in my pocket, and I haven't a farthing now; but, I say Peter, what's all this to you ? What right have you to ask me these ques tions ?—(Laughter.) The LORD MAYOR—Why you are an unfortunate man, fallen among persons who are not fit for you to associate with. You are evidently suffering from the remains of some powerful stimulant, and I wish to ascertain whether you were what is called " hocussed." The corn-cutter—He spent his money as he went from house to house on the night crawl.--(Great laughter.) I am a respectable man, but unfor tunately my wife and I differ on that subject.— (Laughter.) I have been treated ill by her and her family, and I never think of going near her except when I am drunk, and my learned friend and I were rather malty this morning, or I would not have stretched his body before her fire. Two gentlemen, friends of Mr. Arnott, having assured the Lord Mayor that the defendant was a very respectable person, his Lordship allowed them to take him home, upon the promise to oblige him to come forward next day. The other defendant, who wasa.ccused of having threatened his mother-in law, was remanded. Yesterday the corn-cutter was again put to the bar, and Mr. Arnort kept the promise made by his friends. The LORD MAYOR asked the latter whether he could king anything of the occurrence to his re collection. Mr. Arnott burst into tears. He had not, he declared, the most remote idea of what had oc curred, after he had transacted some business on Tuesday in the neighbourhood of Lincoln's Inn fields. He had an idea that he had entered two corner public-houses, but where he could not tell, or whom he saw and sat with he had no notion. He begged pardon of his Lordship for the disrespect ful language he had used on the preceding day, and he apologised to the lady on whose hearthrug he had laid himself. He felt deeply ashamed of the night's adventure, and was most willing to aid the poor-box to any extent that might be desired. The corn -cutter—lt won't do to say in this case as the toast says—" May the evening's amusement bear the morning's reflection." I am very sorry, m y Lord, for disturbing my wife and mother-in-law, and I hope you will look over it, my Lord. lam going down to the country. The LORD MAYOR—To cut corns ? The corn cutter—Not exactly to cut them, my Lord. I ex tract, without cutting. I am a regular Chiropodist. I can cure corns of the worst kind without the knife. The LORD MAYOR—Then a steady hand is not requisite for your operations ; as for a clear head, that'a altogether out of the question. The corn -cutter's mother-in-law said, she never before heard that he was a cutter of corns. The corn-cutter—No, how could you, when I have only lately set up the trade. I don't do much in town, for introductions are necessary to a profes sional man--(Laughter)—but in the country I get into full business, for no such nonsense is necessary. The LORD MAYOR—As your mother-in-law swears she apprehends danger from you, you must find bail. Committed in default of bail. The other defendant put down a contribution to the Poor-box, and departed, evidently with a heavy heart. BOTV-STREET. Yesterday Benjamin Singleton, page to his Royal Highness the Duke of Cumberland, was brought before Mr. MINSHULL for refusing to maintain his male child, of which Ann Short, a well-looking of youthful appe ar a nce , was the mother. complainant st a t e d th a t the child was born on the lale 27th of June, in the parish of St. Martin-in the-Fields, and that . , herself and infant had since become chargeable to that parish. The defendant was the father of her child. The defendant made an attempt to deny the charge, but without success. Mr. MINSHULL observed that 3s. dd. was the lowest sum that he would call upon the defendant to pay. A sum of 6/. for expenses being demanded, the defendant declared his inability to pay so large a sum for expenses, and complained that part of the demand had been added to the account after a friend of his, and the steward of his Royal Highness, had offered bail on his behalf to the amount of 25/. The offer was made on Friday last, but the parish would not accept it. Mr. Rawlings said that the parish could not compromise the matter in the way proposed. Had the defendant come forward and met-the case as he ought to have done, he would have been saved the expense of sending an officer after him to Kew on several occasions. Mr. MlNstrum, asked in what situation of life complainant was when she became acquainted with the defendant. Mr. Rawlings replied that she was in service at the time. Mr. MINSRULL asked if the defendant was a single man. The defendant replied that he had an insane wife and two children to support on a salary of 50/, g year only, and it was, therefore, quite impos , ible for him to pay 3s. 6d. per week, together with the ex penses demanded by the parish, and to which he ob- jected on the ground he had stated. Mr. Rawlings, by desire of the magistrates, read over the items in the bill of expenses, from which they deducted the sum of ss. 6d., leaving a balance of 5/. Is. 6d., which included the expenses incurred at the birth of the child, its subsequent maintenance, 18s. expenses, and 3s. 6d. in advance of the weekly allowance. The defendant paid the money in obedience to the order of the bench, and was discharged. A young man, named Samuel Stukeley, was charged with a double assault, under the following circumstances : It appeared that at four o'clock on the day pre vious, Thomas Handley and another constable of the F division were passing with their wives through Vinegar-yard, Drury-lane, whom the defendant, in a most unprovoked mariner, shoved against, desiring them to get out of the way, observing that he paid taxes for their clothes as well as his own. Two young men, named Thomas Bradley and Edward Jones, perceiving the insulting conduct of the de fendant, came up and told him that he had done very wrong, as the constables had not insulted him. The defendant immediately turned round and struck Bradley in the face, and s,ibsequently assaulted the constable Handley, who interfered to keep the peace. He was then taken to the station-house. The witnesses Bradley and Jones bore testimony to the great forbearance of the constables when the defendant insulted them in a manner so unprovoked and wanton. The defendant was fined 5/. for each assault, and in default of payment, was sentenced to be confined for two months in the House of Correction. MARYLEB ONE. SHOPLIFTING.—Yesterday morning this office was crowded with people of respectability, all of whom evinced much anxiety to hear the re-exami nation of Mrs. Elizabeth Daws, wife of Mr. Daws, cabinet-maker and upholsterer, of No. 22, Duke street, Bloomsbury, who, on the previous evening, was brought before Mr. Rawlitison, charged with stealing and carrying away from the shop of Mrs. Chester, in Rathbone-place, Oxford-street, a valuable lady's fur boa, the particulars of which appeared in our journal of yesterday. The night charges having been disposed of by the Magistrate, Mrs. Daws, who throughout the night had been in confinement at the Marylebone-lane station-house, was brought up in custody of police constable Tipple, 104 E, and again placed at the bar. The unhappy woman appeared dreadfully agitated and overpowered by her feelings (which it was apparent to every one around were of the most acute and painful nature), and after glancing hastily and anxiously at the bystanders, covered her face with her handkerchief, and then burst into a flood of tears. Mr. HOSKINS —ls the prosecutrix in attendance ? Constable—No, your Worship, I believe she declines coming forward. Mr. HOSKINS—Then the prisoner must be dis charged. She was accordingly removed from the bar, when shortly afterwards the police-constable ascended the witness-box, bringing with him the boa, which was a very handsome one, tied up in a handkerchief. Mr. HOSKINS—Let the prisoner be brought in again. - Mrs. Daws was accordingly brought into the of fice, and resumed her place at the bar. Mr. HOSKINS again inquired if the prosecutrix or any principal witness in the case was in attendance, and was answered in the negative. Mr. HOSKINS—Where is the shopman who gave evidence against the prisoner last night ?—Con stable—He has been here this morning, your Wor ship, and declines doing any thing farther in the business. Mr. HOSKINS—Then she's discharged. Mrs. Daws then quitted the bar, leaning on the arm of her husband (a •ery respectable-looking man), who came with her from the station-house, and stood beside her throughout the proceedings. UNION-HALL. Yesterday William Mason, one of the thieves called dragsmen, who infest the suburbs of London for the purpose of stealing trunks and other descrip tion of luggige from post-chaises, was brought be fore Mr. WEDGWOOD, charged with a robbery under the following circumstances : On the preceding night, between eight and nine o'clock, as Mr. James Moor, the army accoutrement maker, of Bond-street ; was driving along the New Kent-road, in a cabriolet, accompanied by a lady, he heard a noise behind the vehicle. The tics(' of the cab was down at the time, and on turning round he saw the prisoner in the act of taking a reticule which was laying in the pouch, and which contained a miniature set in gold, together with a purse and money, and some other trifling articles. The pri soner having taken the reticule jumped down and ran off with great speed, pursued by the complainant in the cabriolet, and he continued to call " Police" until he was taken into custody. The reticule and its contents were found in the possession of the prisoner, who belongs to a gang of thieves who infest the Kent-read, and whose depredations are confined chiefly to the plunder of vehicles to and from town. He was fully committed. A man named Bowton was charged on suspicion with stealing a s overe i gn , t h e property of an old pensioner. . The pensioner c ame up to town f or t h e purpose of receiving som e p r i ze money f or t h e capture o f a frigate in the West Indies. Having received his share, amounting to 3/. 18s., he retired to a grog shop near the Admiralty, and had a glass to the memorable action which entitled him to the cash. When he came out and was going along the Kent-road, he wanted to see how much his purse contained, and for this purpose knelt down on one knee and emptied the mone y 011 the pavement. An old shipmate, who happened be in his company at the time, immediately snatche d up a handful of silver and the three sovereigns, upon t o SMUGGLING.--Yesterday urge man, a Dutch seaman, belonging to the Batavier, Holland steam ship, was brought before Mr. BALLANTINE and Mr. BRODERIP, charged on a Custom-house information with smuggling six pounds of foreign manufactured tobacco, which bad not paid duty, by which he had incurred a penalty of 100/. Geolge Walker Judge, a Thames Police cur. veyor, stated that on Wednesday evening he met the prisoner in Upper East Smithfield, opposite the St, Katharine's Dock, and on searching his person found six papers of tonere° concealed between his body and his linen. Another paper of tobacco which had escaped his search, was subsequently found in the cell where the prisoner was locked up. The Batavier arrived on Wednesday afternoon, and the prisoner had but just left the vessel when he stopped him. The prisoner, through the medium of an inter preter, said he bought the tobacco in Holland for 75., and he brought it over here, thinking to make something by it. Mr. Bullock, the Customs' solicitor, said a good deal of smuggling had been going forward on board the Balmier. Several men belonging to her had been frequently convicted, and a few months ago there was a violemt obstruction of the revenue officers in attempting to seize some smuggled goods. Mr. BRODERIP explained to the prisoner that the ease having been proved, they were bound to pass the sentence of the law, which was that the prisoner should pay a fine of 100/. to the King, or be impri soned until such fine was paid. The prisoner said he had only ten dollars and a watch, and King 'William might have that. Mr. BRODERIP told the prisoner that any appli cation for mercy must, be to the Board of Customs. Captain William Fairburit, master of the brig Robert and Ann, from Petersburgh, was next placed at the bar, charged with smuggling, and illegally unshipping six quarts of rum and live pounds of tobacco, by which he had rendered himself, as a seaman and a British subject, liable to serve his Ma jesty in the navy for five years. The prisoner had no sooner entered the office than Mr. Bullock stepped up to him, and received two 5/. Bank of England notes from his hand. Mr. Bullock, addressing the Magistrates, said in this case, in which the prisoner had been arrested and detained, he did not intend to offer any evidence. Mr. BRODERIP said he trusted the Commis sioners of Customs had got some rule to make these selections. Mr. Bullock—Yes, Sir, they have. The defen dant has sent in a petition to the Board, who do not intend to proceed alpinist him. Mr. BALLANTINE—Let it be understood we are no parties to any compromise. We discharge the prisoner because there is no evidence against him. The facts of this case, as detailed in evidence before Mr. Ballantine, on Wednesday evening, were these :—Mr. William Judge, a Surveyor of Thames Police, saw Captain Fairburn and a boy named George Johnson coming ashore at Execution Dock stairs, and observed the Captain hand a bag to the lad, which he took from him. The Captain said it was his, and on being asked if it contained any liquor, said it did not. The officer felt the bag and said he thought there was some liquur in it, but the Captain a second time declared there was not any. The bag was opened, and among some dirty linen a bladder, containing six quarts of rum an'd a paper of pigtail tobacco, weighing 51b., discovered. CORPORATION OF DERRY.--On Monday last, a meeting of the creditors of this body was held in Corporation Hall; to which was communicated the row- lution of the Corporation to assign its property in trust for the creditors. The meeting having considered the resolution, approved of the same, and made choice of t r ustees. —Londonderry Sentinel. The sea serpent is said to be very unlike what it is asserted to be--even by the Salem Register, that had been an ardent stickler for its existence. The supposed monster is now ascertained to be but a shoal of black fish, that keep congregated, and move some of them occasion ally in the manner described as the undulatory motions of the Pontoppidan servant. The gentlemen who last ob served them, supposed the aggregate body (from the de scription) was the serpent ; but curiosity having induced them to approach near for are purpose of observing mi nutely its appearance, &c., the shoal or school soon be came disarranged. Similar shoals have been since observed and scattered, so that the arcanum is solved. Yesterday Messrs. Thompson and Keene, the revising barristers for the city of London, opened th,ir Court at Guildhall. No claim of any novelty was preferred. In the last year the total constituency of London was 18,584, of which 9,527 were Liverymen, and 9,057 were 101. householders. The lists of the latter show a decrease of nearly one-half, as far as can at present be calculated. One circumstance, however, which makes the decrease the more prominent, is the fact, that last year many of the Livery were also returned as 101. bouwbolders, but this year have withdrawn their names, and now stand only on the lists of their severa Companies. Yesterday a great crowd of persons was as- 1 smibled at Whitechapel church to witness the interment of Samuel Draper, the rich beggar and miser, who bad died at the London hospital during the previous week, and who by his will had directed that the sum of 501. should be expended on his funeral, as he did not, he said, wish to be sent to his grave as he lived, a common vagabond. The appearance of the funeral caused much disappointment. It was generally expected, from the large sum left for the purpose, and the shortness of the journey, that the number of coaches and cavalcade would be very great ; but instead of this it consisted of a small hearse, drawn by two horses, in which was deposited the body of the deceased, in a coffin covered with black cloth, followed by a single mourning coach, with only two i ones, and in which was the nephew of the deceased, to whom he has left 500/., as chief mourner, sttzl three others. It was very generally remarked, thst notwithstanding the strict injunctions of the deceased to have the sum before mentioned expended to the decent interment of his remains, the display and expenses could not have amounted to any thing like 20/.
