Colonel Maxwell leaves the neighbourhood of Dumfries very shortly, to resume his functions as Governor of the island. On Thursday last was married at St. Andrew's Church, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, by the Rev. - Hartley, Robert If ed- Icy, Esq. of Long Benton, Northumberland, son a nd h e i r t o the late Mr. Alderman R. Hedley, of Newcastle, to Miss Jane Graham Clarke, daughter of the late ,John Graham Clarke, Esq. of Fenliam. An elegant entertainment, with the usual concomitants, was given at Fenham-Hall the sanie afternoon. Covers were l a id for 30, and that number, all family con nexions, sat down to dinner at six o'clock. On the following day the good old custom of a merry-making among the servants , and the rustics of the neighbourhood took place, in a large field near the Hall. Besides a variety of other diversions, there were races, equestrian and pedestrian, for suitable prizes: even the fair sex, attracted by some handsome gown-pieces, entered the lists, and made excellent sport by the lightness of their heels. Mr. James Clarke very condescendingly took upon him the office of superintendent, and by his presence gave great life to the scene. Sev e r a l b arre l s o f stro n g a l e were distributed, and the health of Mrs. Clarke and the family drank with great enthusiasm, as was also long life and prosperity to the amiable bride and the hr:aegroorn. Though Sir John Barleycorn fully exerted his prerogative, every thing went off with the greatest glee and good humour, and the day will doubtless long be re membered as a day of genuine revels in the neighbourhood. On . Tuesday, the Gentlemen of the Alresford Bowling Club, held their annual Festival at the Sun Inn, Winchester, which was very numerously and respectably attended. An excellent dinner was served up by Mrs. Smith, consisting of all the luxuries of the Season ; the day was spent in the great est conviviality, and the merry song went round to a late hour.

Madame VESTRIS is the sister of Madame, DE RONZI DE BEGS!, and is said to eclipse her sister in attractiveness of person. HAMBURGH, OCT. 9. Several of our first families, independently of the corps diplomatique, have, within these eight days, set off to witness the gaieties. of Hanover, on the approaching visit of his Majesty George IV. Besides a, great variety of choice munitions de table, our city has had the honour to furnish a great deal of rich furniture, &c. selected by the Marshal of the Palace of Herren hausen, for the decoration of various hotels at Hanover, which the royal visit has rendered necessary, in order to the accommo dation of the illustrious guests expected in that capital. The last letters from thence say nothing can exceed the hurry and bustle of the place : Tout eat en mouvement. The influx of strangers is already very great. Amongst the actual arrivals are the DA& and Duchess Of Cumberland, and the young Prince George ; the two young Dukes of Brunswick ; Prince Frederick of Hesse ; the Prince of Thum and Taxis ; his Ex cellency Baron Von Chanikow, the Russian Minister; Count Von Winzingerode, the Wirtemberg Minister ; Baron Von Grote, Grand Master of Wardrobe to his Majesty the King of Prussia ; M. de Struve, Russian Minister in Saxony, &c. Towards the middle of the month her Serene Highness the Landgravine of Hesse Homburg, is expected; and, if her health will permit, the Queen Dowager of Wirtemberg also. The Em peror of Austria send s th e A rc hd u ke F er di nan d, - with a brilliant spite, to welcome the King of Hanover to his hereditary German dominions ; and the King of Prusila does the same by a special commission, consisting of three distinguished Generals, to wit, Count Tunentzien, V on Borstell,,andVon Natzmer. Amongst the diversions in store for his Britannic Majesty, a grand hunt of the wild boar is. one. As there is nothing analogous to this in England, it will at least be a novelty . ; An excellent corps dramatique has been got together ; and it is hoped the German stage will have share of the royal approbation. • Some of the performers have come from Vienna. That great diplomatist, the Marquis of Londonderry, and Sir Benjamin Bloomfield, his Majesty's Secretary, have arrived they are accommodated at the beautiful villa of Count ‘Valrnoden. It was on the 4th inst. that the preliminary inauguration of the festivities (to use this expression for want of a better) took place in manner fol lowing—that is,. a grand garrison ball was given on that even ing by all the military officers in Hanover, joined by those who belong to the Various regiments collected in the . neighbourhood. It was a very brilliant and numerous assembly, arid, besides the two Royal Dukes and - the Duchess of Cumberland, was ho noured by the presence of all the distinguished personages in Hanover.

DRURY4AANE.--After the performance of The Dramatist, and The Coronation, last night, at this Theatre, the Farce of The Weathercock in troduced Miss KELLY, for the first time this sea son, in the part of ,Variella. As this Actress is most deservedly one of the chief favourites of the Public, and is possessed of pathetic as well as comic talents in a superior degree, it is nat wonderful that she was received by a numerous audience with the most gratifying zeal of ap plause. She appeared to be in admirable health, and she amply requited the audience for the warmth of their reception by the spirit and hu mour of her . performance. HARLEY alsO was very favourably received on his entrance as l Tristram Fickle, and he exerted himself with all his usual bUstling activity and comic luxuriance. ADELPJII.—A 'new piece was brought forward last night at this convenient and elegant little Theatre, entitled The Corsair's Bride. The story is interesting, consisting of the terrific qua lities of Banditti, agreeably relieved by scenes of a comic description. It was very well per formed and very well received. The scenery was appropriate. The view of Mount Etna would have been seen to more advantage if a brilliant moon had not appeared at the same time. WAYLETT, in a ferocious Pirate, made a strong impression,; and WILKINSON, in a ridicu lous sort of Lord Chamberhin, was highly ai verting by his ludicrous simplicity. Miss PITT, from the Surrey Theatre, was the heroine, and she performed her part with feeling and truth.— This piece was followed by Bruno, or the Sul tan's Favourite, which is certainly very extrava gant in the plot, but highly diverting in effect. WRENCH, active and indefatigable, was the main spring of the piece, and WILKINSON again brought forth his unaffected dry and simple humour. Mr. MicnEADy . and Mrs. BUNN are now per forming with much eclat at the Leicester Theatre. The erection of Waterloo Bridge is said to have cost more than a million of money ; a l arger sum t h an t h e building of St. Paul's cathedral, the exact amount of the latter being 736,7521. 2s. 3.0. The Monument cost 88551. St. Bride's church, 11,4301. Christ-cliurch, 11,7781. St. Lawrence Jury, 11,8701. St. Magnus, London bridge, 95791. St. Andrew's Holborn, 90001. St. James's, Westminster. 85001. St. Clement Danes, 87861.-and St. Mary-le-Bow, 80711. These churches were all built by Sir Christopher Wren. One of the handsomst interiors of his erecting is that of St. Stephen, Walbrook, which church cost.not quite 80001. It contains, too, at the. altar, one of the late President \Vest's finest performances—St. Stephen Stoned. A evritr.—A footman of Lord DACRE was hung in 167 a, for the murder of his Lordship's butler. The culprit, was only 19 years of age. While writing his confession—" I murd—" he stopped and asked, " how do you spell murdered ?" - A young lady was lately told by a Mr. Piers, under whose roof she then was, that she talked so muph he must endeavour to get her appointed Speaker of the. House of Commons. " That," she replied, " would be to degrade me, as [ am al ready in, the House of Peen P.' Solite person asked the late CHARLES Fox 'what was the meaning of that passage in the Psalms—" Ile clothed himself with cursing, like as with a garment." " The' meaning," said he, " I think, is clear enough ; the man had a habit of swearing !" To such a length has the mania for Burnsonian relics been carried in the neighbourhood of Ayr, that now, since the venerable rafters of Alloway Kirk have been metamorphosed into chairs and snuffboxes, some sacrilegious enthusiasts have actually laid violent bands on the tombstone of the Poet's father, which is disappearing by piece -meal. SHERIFF COURT, GREENOCK.---Upon Saturday last JoHN .Ttuttr - en, ship carpenter in Greenock, was brought to trial before Jour; COLIN DUNLOP, Esq. Sheriff-depute of the County, and a Jury, at the • instance of the Prpcu, rator Fiscal of the district, charged with violently assault ing and striking his father, a man of seventy-nine years of age, in his own house, into which he had made a forcible en trance. On the criminal letters being read ever, the pannel pled guilty to the charge preferred against him; whereupon the Sheriff after a suitable address to the prisoner on the atrocity of his offence, sentenced him to be imprisoned in the Jail of Greenock for the - period of nine months, and during three of these to be fed upon bread and water, and there after to be banished the county for life, under certification of being whipped and again imprisoned and banished, in case of his return within the jurisdiction of the Court. A bird of very uncommon appearance, called, in Northumberland, the golden headed wren, was seen on Friday near Longtown. is about the size of the humming bird, has a beautiful tuft of bright red on its head, and the feathers of its wings are of xariegated colours.; SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

The knowing ones were, however, - completely taken in, and, perhaps, deservedly SO, for they should have known that the Alderman, though heavy as li"num site, Is REMARKABLE FORWARD in a political race, whether it be for the Queen's Plate, a Sweepstakes, or a Match ; and in this race, though he won by only half a head, yet he proved himself half a head better than the Grand Master of the Order of St. Caroline. We would speak of the liberality,,puh lic spirit, and di s int eres t e d ness of 31r. Lambton in gettin g up these races, were we n o t aware th at hi s hi re d eulogist will have a better opportunity than ourselves to collect all the particu ars : to. him, therefore, -we leave the puffing department.

We understand that the coursing has been very successful this season, and that since the removal of the crops from the fields, several parties have had-capital sport in the neighbour hood of Perth. The Stratherne Coursing Club is expected to meet at the bridge of Forteviot, on Thursday and'Friday, the Ist and 2d November, when excellent sport is anticipated—,-. (Edinburgh Paper.) SINGULAR COINCIDENCE: 7 4R the contiguous parishes and hanl'Ats of Bagshot, Frimley, and Hawley, on the uorders of Surrey and Hants, there are now resident four families, whose re spective surnames are Lard, Ham, Bacon, and llogsficsh, who, though derived from one cogno mical stock, are probably unknown to each other as neighbours. A young lady was told by a married lady that she had better precipitate herself from off the Passaic falls into the basin beneath, than marry. The young lady replied, " I would if I thought I should find a husband at the bottom:"—(Sigf fordshire Advertiser.) No less than sixty-nine barristers attended the late Assizes at Lancaster. BOXING. TOURNAMENT ON MOULSEY HURST. , s , This 'plain has' b een f or many years the scene of heriod valour. There never were two better pitted than on the occa sion we are about to record, of about equal weight. Curtis is a SNAKE-HEADED one like Jem Belcher; Lenney, though as good a man in 'nature as his" adversary, is of Quixote form, capable of bearing punishment without a groan, able and wil ling to give. The men, with their partisans, shelved in the ring With white upper TO9GEHY and castors. Belcher and Harry Harmer seconded Curtis, and Spring and this picked up Lenney. Five to four on Curtis., . kouNos. • 1. Lenney made the play; Curtis broke his grourid, turned to again, ,and floored his adversary by a left-handed hit fol lowed by the right. 2. Curtis made the play, and cut his adversary on the left eyebrow, from which torrents of claret flowed, and, breaking his ground, he returned and made a heaVy right-handed blow under his adversary's jaw. Lenney, undismayed, stuck case at his work, but his hits were a t t oo muc h di stance for ilia M EANWG. In a close there was , a trial of strength, which was , rather in favour of Lenney, who gave the fall, but Curtis had cunning enough to keep himself uppermost. Two to one 9a Ctirti*. . 3. floth out of wind ' • Lenney pl ace d a bl ow on t h e throat, and his adversary threw him. • . 4. A. severe fighting :round, in, which hits were exchanged about the head qUite DISORDERLY. In a rally both were hanging over the ropes, but , they 'were not bred in the Randall school of wEAN•tic G. . Curtis having his right hand at . liberty, pelted upon the kidneys of his adversary, whose baCk was not in its place to sustain material injury. 5. Lenney again made the play, and regardless of fear, -got as:near his adversary as he could, but Curtis had all the science of fighting with him, and floored his adversary. 3 'to 1. Lenney made a good hit, but like a skilful shot, Curtis returned upon him, and-laid open a contused right cheek bone, a hit frem which the CLARET flew like a waterfall in a. second. .7.• Lenney's head was like a plum pudding,' exhibiting all colours, and it was made worse in this round by a heavy fiborer. 4 to 1. To the judges of fighting, the battle was considered won in this round. it is unnecessary to go any g r ea t l engt h f art h er i nto this fight keeping in view some particularities. In the Bth round Curtis, 'having lest no .blood, showed himself the strongest -Iran in throwing, whilst the contused h ea d o f hi s a d versary presented an excheq - tiered spectacle. - In the 10th round Lenney made a brave stand, and hit his adversary on the ear, but loss of blood had so weakened bins, that he fell upon his blow, and had no chance afterwards. In the 12th round Lenney fell in trying to hit, and his head was 10 to 1 heavier than MS legs. In the 14th round Curtis let loose, and shelved some of the be s t fi g hti ng o f J em Belcher. In ie 18th round Curtis hit his adversary doWn by a heavy hit in the throat, which would have stopped all the heavy CHINA men of the day, but the brave Lenney yet would not be denied. Gas made some inspiring observations, but Len ney's head was too groggy to edify, and after the 20th round, when floored by a heavy hit, he was deaf to time, with his head reclined on his' second's shoulder. Curtis was carried away in triumph as a winner, sitting upright upon a friend's shoulders. Lenney was left in an uncertain state.--Some novices divided spoil afterwards in what they termed 'fighting. ExTENstvE ROBBEaY.—On Sunday night, dur ing the pitiless pelting of the storm, at a moment when the intnatesof houses, could hardly be sup posed. to dread any other mischief than that which must arise from the elements; a most daring and extensive robbery was committed in the upper story of the house of Mr. CAMERON, a pawnbroker, at the corner of Drury-court, near the New Church, in the Strand. The lower part of the house, which contains property to a great amount, is completely protcled against depredation, and one could hardly sup pose it possible for human contrivance to gain access to the upper part which some few months ago was raised one story higher than any of the contiguous dwellings. This singular difficulty- was, however, overcome on Sunday night, pro bably about twelve or one o'clock; and front , the attic floor, which contained a quantity of for feited pledges, effects to the value of between one and two hundred pounds were carried away. Yesterday, in consequence of information given at Bow-street, some of the officers examined the premises, and they traced the footsteps . of th e robbers over t h e roo f s of the several houses in the Strand as far as that infamous depot, lately the Swan public-house,in Swan-yard, which, after having been a night coffee-shop for the reception of thieves and prostitutes, is now empty. No further trace of the robbers has been discovered. BUTTER TRADE.

PRICE OF WHEAT IN FRANCE.--A respectable correspondent informs us, that at one of the largest monthly Corn Markets in Picardy, last week, the very best seed wheat sold at 60 francs (50 shillings) the 3001 b. French weight,.which is 10 francs, or Bs. 4d. more than the same kind of wheat sold for at that market at this time last year.—(Sussex Advertiser.) --~- POST OFFICE REVENUE.—It is expected that there will be a great increase in the Post Office Revenue this Quarter, from the influx of Co - untry Letters with Orders for Tickets and Shares-for NEXT TUESDAY'S Drawing, when the First Prize will have Thirty Thousand Pounds Money. ANGLING.--On Thursday last upwards of 100 dozen of fine roach were caught in Harripton Deep ; several of the fish weighed a pound and a half each. The oldest fisherman on the Thames does not recollect any thing like it before in angling. It was one of the finest day's sport ever known; and the fishermen attending on the Gentlemen could not take the fish off the hooks fast _enough, 1
