BANKRUPTCY COURT.-(THIS DAY.) MR. MABERLY'S BANKRUPTCY. A meeting fur auditing the accounts, and for proof of debts, was held this day before Mr. Commissioner Fon blanque. A great number of small debts were proved, but nothing of any public interest occurred. MANSION-HOUSE.-(THIS DAY.) The Secretary of the Cabinet-makers' Slciety attended before Mr. Alderman WILSON, who sat for the LORD MAYOR, to answer the charge of the widow of a late member of the society, named Gray. It appeared from the statement of the complainant that the society were in debted to Gray at the time of his death between 201. and 30/., which, on the widow demanding, they refused to pay, giving her only 5/. towards defraying the expenses of her husband's funeral. The Secretary stated that the society were anxious to du all they could for Mrs. Gray, but her husband, shortly be fore his death, had executed a paper by which he left his two sons, by a former wife, the whole of the money due from the society to him ; unless, therefore, the Alderman was of opinion the testamentary paper was good for no thing, the society would not be justified in paying the money to the widow. Both Mr. Alderman WILSON and Mr. Alderman COPE. LAND were clearly of opinion they had no right to inter fere oa behalf of the widow, though her case was a❑ ex tremely hard one.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE CL 0 CK. A mail has arrived from Malta, which sa il s sad on the 9th of August ; also one from Vera Cruz, sailed on the 14th of J uly. The latter has brought 80,000 dollars freight, sup- Posed for merchants' account. The news from Vera Cruz is published in a Morning Journal in a Falmouth letter, that hostili t i es will recommence in that quarter, as the Government of Mexico refuses to accept of Santa Anna's the 6they Paper s to the 10th of April, and Singapore to of April, have been received at tbe North and South American Coffee-house. (From the Sydney Paper.) It has been currently reported in town during the past week that Government proposes to lay a yearly tax upon mast ers in the colony for each Government servant, and that a new office is to be instituted in which a collector is to preside.

Several skirmishes with the enemy have taken place at Kalima Sundas, and 28 stockades have been taken already. COMMERCIAL REMARKS.

Yesterday afternoon the following distinguished per sonages arrived at the Castle on a visit to their MAJES TIES :—His Royal Highness the Duke of SUSSEX, the Duke of litcHmown, Earl and Countess ALBEMARLE, Lady CAROLINE KEPPEL, Earl and Countess of ERROL, Sir HILGROVE TURNER, Colonel and Lady ISABELLA WIMESS, the whole of whom had the honour of dining and passing the evening with their MAJESTIES. Her MAJESTY'S band were in attendance, and played during the evening. This day, at half-past one o'clock, their MAJESTIES and the whole of the Royal party and suite left the Castle, in four close carriages, for Egham Race Course. The first carriage contained the KING and QUEEN, the Duke of SUSSEX, and Lady WESEMEATIT the second carriage, the Duke of GLOUCESTER, the Duke of RICHMOND, the Countess of ALBEMARLE, and Lady CAROLINE KEPPEL; the third carriage, Earl and Countess of ERROL, Earl of ALBEMARLE ; the fourth carriage, Colonel and Lady ISABELLA WEMYSS, and Sir HILGROVE TURNER. Prince GEORGE of Cambridge, with the Rev. Mr. WOOD, fol lowed in a close phaeton. The remainder of the Royal suite followed in three other phaetons. Just as the Royal party had set out a tremendous storm of rain took place. It is expected, if the weather prove favourable, that their MAJESTIES will again visit the Course to-morrow (this day). A confirmation took place to-day by the Bishop of SALISBURY, at the parish church, when 3'78 persons were confirmed. After the confirmation his Lordship repaired to the Castle, and left his name on the list of inquirers after their MAJESTIES' health. BRIGHTON, AUG. 28. The Eclipse, Captain CorEsItAN, sailed from this place on Saturday night in a complete hurricane, with about thirty passengers, amongst whom was the young Prince TRILISOUTSICOY, who is erroneously stated in the London papers to have been charged with despatches of importance for the French Government. The Prince has no diplomatic character. Count FLAHAOT arrived here from Londo❑ on Saturday evening, on his return to Paris, but he does not sail until to-morrow. During his stay here he has had important communications from the French Ambassador and Lord PALMERSTON. It is generally un derstood that his mission related principally to Belgium, but that one object of it was to impress upon the minds of his Majesty's Ministers the importance of a more cordial union with the French Government against the Holy Al liance, the late affair of the Diet at Frankfort having convinced Lours PHILIP and his Cabinet of the real de signs of the Absolutists of the Continent. Brighton is very dull for the season ; indeed, it was hardly ever so much so before. PAUANINI is here, and has given a concert, but the people do not run after him as they used to do. Lord NUGENT transacted business this morn ing at the Treasury. Despatches were received this morning at the Foreign-office, from our Ambassador at Paris. VISIT OF THEIR ROYAL HIGHNESSES THE DUCHESS OF KENT AND THE PRINCESS VICTORIA TO LLANBERIS.—EarIy in the morning of Saturday last, it was known in Carnarvon that their Royal Highnesses would pass through the town, on their visit to the roman tic lake and piss of Llanberis. Accordingly, the fires lighted the previous evening on Twhill and on the Elidir mountain, in honour of the Duchess's birth-day, were scarcely extinct when Carnarvon was all in a bustle of pre paration to display yet other proofs of esteem and attach ment to the Royal visiters. The day was such as the morning promised, clear and refreshing. The Uxbridge Arms Hotel was tastefully decorated with evergreens and flags. A little after twelve o'clock the Royal carriaqes arrived in front of the hotel. It was soon perceived that the Princess VICTORIA was not present, and a feeling of anxiety pervaded the people to learn the cause. It was soon understood that her Royal Highness was indisposed, on account of the fatigues of the preceding day. The Duchess, after changing horses, proceeded in the direction of Llanberis. The road to Llanberis iv, independently of the mountain scenery, pleasing and picturesque. It pur sues its course chiefly along an elevated ridge, at the foot of which tLe Seiont winds over its rugged bed, guiding the eye to its origin in the lake of Llanberis. The caval cade stopped at i temporary pier erected for the embarka tion of the Royal party, near the northern extremity of the lake, a few hundred yards from the ruins of the hall of LLEWELYN, where tradition informs us King EDWARD I. embarked to attrck the Welsh when they made their last stand. Here her Royal Highness and suite entered the boat of T. A. SMITH, Esq. provided for their reception, at the stern of which floated the royal standard of Britain, for the first time on this lake since the days of EDWARD. The scene at the entrance of the lakes is very striking. The mountains at the extremity of the pass, about seven miles in the distance, approach each other, forming a narrow and bold defile, and seem to close up the view in dark and rugged majesty. On either side of the lake the mountains rise abruptly to an immense altitude ; and the lake, reflecting their rocky sides, has always a particu larly dark appearance. As the boat proceeded slowly along, the Royal visitor was greeted by salutes from above 2,000 rock cannon. The Royal party landed at the ruins of Dolbadarn, one of the ancient British castles which guarded the pass. After partaking of refreshments, the Royal party proceeded to visit the ancient castle, and Mr. Sairria's beautifully situated cottage on the lake. They then set out on their return by land, receiving as they went a thundering farewell from the mountai❑ cannons, which the llanyciau Eryri, (lads of Snowdon,) had re loaded. MALNIESBURY REFORM FESTIVAL.—The consummation of the great measure of Parliamentary Re form has in no place been celebrated with more real sa tisfaction and pleasure than in the ancient and well-known borough of Malmesbury. A liberal subscription having been entered into for the purpose, upwards of 1,500 per sons were, on Wednesday last, regaled with true English fare—roast beef, plum pudding, and strong beer. The tables were laid in a meadow, at the entrance into the town, and, when filled, presented a most agreeable scene. Nothing but harmony prevailed—no disputes were heard— ❑o drunkenness was seen ; a striking contrast to the de bauchery and wickedness that prevailed under the exploded system. Such is the change already produced by the great measure of Reform. Bands of music, and men with flags, bearing patriotic inscriptions, perambulated the town during the day ; and in the evening there was a brilliant display of fire-works. 'Tile long talked-of steps for expediting the arrival of the London mail are now about to be taken. On or before the 6th of next month it will reach Greenock about 4 in the afternoon, and return at 9 in the morning. The Liverpool mail will arrive and depart at the present hours.— Greenock Advertiser. The Bank of France has just issued new notes of 1,000 francs. The size, the form, the arrangement, the vignette border, the stamp, and the water-marks, are preci'ely the same as the old ❑otes ; but, from some pe culiar preparation of the paper and the ink, the impres sio❑ appears through the note with the same distinctness as on the face, though the letters and figures are reversed.— O❑ holding the hack of the note to a looking-glass, it pre sents a per feet far si'nile of the impression, except that the signature of the cashier, or registering clerk, does not ap pear. SURREY AND SUSSEX TURNPIKE. ROADS. —The Commissioners of the above roads met on the 12th day of July last, at the Sessions-house, Horsemonger-lane, to let the tolls arising at the different gates on the said roads ; they were put up at the sum of 24,1201. for one year, for which sum they are let for the present year, wp to the 29th day of September next ; no letting took place. The Commissioners adjourned to Thursday, the 23d of the present month, on which day they met in the Court-house of Horsemonger-lane. The Chairman of the Commis sioners put up the said gites for the term of three years certain, at the sum of 23,0001. per year, including the watering tolls, to commence on the 2d or 3d of March in every year, to expire on the last day of September, when they were knocked down to Mr. LEWIS LEVY, at the sum of 23,1301. per year. The bidders on the occasion were , Messrs. T. SIMTSON, A. BOTTLE, G. MORTON , and W . MEssENcEn. The following are the gates on the above roads, namely, Newington, Kennington, Vauxhall, Cam berwell, Kingston, Croydon, Godstone, Blue Anchor, and East Grinstead, and side-bars. COURT MARTIAL IN THE TOWER.—A few days since a regimental Court-martial was beld in the officers' mess-room in the Tower of London, when THOMAS FLORENTINE, a private of the Ist regiment of Coldstream Guards, stationed in that fortress, was put on his trial, charged with being found asleep on his post, in the Bank of England, while on duty three weeks ago, about the hour of midnight. The prisoner was found guilty ; and it appearing that he had committed a similar offence four years since, the Court sentenced him to four months' imprisonment and hard labour in Brixton gaol. The finding and sentence of the Court-martial having been since confirmed by a higher authority, the minutes were read over to the battalion last Saturday, and yesterday the prisoner was removed to Brixton, in custody of a corporal's guard, to undergo his sentence.

Lord FREDERICK FITZCLARENCE has re signed the command of the 7th Royal Fusileers, to which he was appointed in 1825. Colonel ELPIIINSTONE has succeeded his Lordship, who it was expected would resign the Lieutenant-Colonelcy of the corps on his return from the lonian Islands in the summer of 1830, when the ac cession of his MAJESTY occasioned Lord FREDERICK to fix his residence at home. We are happy to learn that the Duke of S ux sEz has received an invitation from his MAJESTY to pay him a visit of several days at Windsor. The cause of the coolness between the Royal Brothers is sufficiently known to the public, and contributed not a little to the distrust of his MAJESTY'S intentions with regard to Reform; which, however, events have proved to be groundless. His Royal Highness justly poshessea the con fid ence o f th e people of England ; and it must be gratifying to them to see his MAJESTY once more surrou n d e d b y d eterm i ne d friends of the Constitution.- 7 21/orniny Chronic/e. The harvest in the district leading from Lin coln to the Humber, through Brigg, &c.is very forward—a great part of the white corn will be carried in a few days. The crops of barley are very fine.—Boston Gazette. We may report the harvest in this county as all but concluded, far although in some few places corn is to be seen abroad, the great bulk of the produce is now safely secured in the barns and rick yards of the growers. There is but one unvarying account from a!1 parts of the kingdom of the abundant crops of grain of every descrip tion, with which it has pleased the Almighty "giver of all goad gifts" this year to bless the Worcester Herald. CELEBRATION OF THE REFORM BILL AT BIRMINGHAM. The Birmingham Journal gives an account of the celebration of the Reform Bill on Monday week. At an early hour in the morning thousands of persons were assembled at the top of Broad-street in that town, when a grand procession of tha united trades took place. In all parts of the town flags were suspended from the windows, and on many of the banners were inscribed the names of Lord Grey and Thomas Attwood, Esq. When the procession had paraded the principal streets, it halted in New-street. and Mr. Attwood and Dr. Wade appeared at an upper window. Mr. ATTWOOD having manifested an intention of ad dressing the crowd, there was immediate silence, and con s derable attention was paid to him. He entered into some lengthened observations upon the subject of the Re form Bill, in the course of which he remarked that the gloomy anticipations which had formerly prevailed were in a great degree dissipated by the passing of that measure. The Bill, he said, was not complete. It did not give the people the full amount of their just constitutional rights, nor did it secure the full measure of the liberty which it promised to them. The difficulties, however, with which it was invested, would, be hoped, be removed at the commencement of the Reformed Parliament. Mr. Attwood then expressed a hope that the great question of triennial Parliaments and vote by bal lot, which, he said, Ministers themselves had left open for future settlement, would shortly be arranged in a manner satisfactory to the people. He would, he added, give the Bill a fair trial ; but if it did not produce the fruit of general prosperity and contentment in a very short period, it would not satisfy him. In that case he should be prepared to recommend measures at a proper time, which would quietly ensure the peaceful and legal obtainment of universal suffrage, and at the same time have the effect either of restoring the general prosperity, or bringing the oppressors of the people to sleep in the same bed with their victims. At the conclusion of his speech, which was much applauded, Mr. Attwood called for three groans for the " Infernal German Political Union," and his invitation was obeyed with the most hearty good will and effect. Dr. WADE, in his address, attributed much of the mi. sery of the country to the corn and money laws, and ad vocated short Parliaments and vote by ballot. One of the working classes next addressed the assembly, and exhorted his fellow-countrymen to continue united, as they would then soon be prosperous. The trades then marched off to the different houses where they were to dine, their bands playing lively tunes. Earl GREY'S present visit to his seat, in Northumberland, is the first which he has been able to make since he assumed the Premiership. ' An address to Earl GREY, from the inhabi tants of Alnwick and the vicinity, is in the course of sig nature. It is to be presented to the Noble Earl on his arrival.—Durham Advertiser.

IRELAND'S LAST BULL.—We find the fol- Lowing startling piece of intelligence, under the usual head " Births," in the Dublin Freeman's Journal of Monday :—" On the 16th instant, Viscount ENcomnE, of a still-born son." The editor of the Cabinet de Lecture trans lates the phrase " Tell it not in Guth"—" N'en faites pas des gorges ebaudes;"—and adds, in a note, " this word Guth is without doubt one of those new ones created by the fashionable world—a thing of every day occurrence in England." SIR WALTER SCOTT.—We lament to state that all hope of our illustrious countryman's recovery is now abandoned. He continues in a very feeble state of body, and is now, we are grieved to understand, unable to recognize his attendants. " The lamp of life," to use the words of a correspondent, " is fast expiring in its own ashes." The family of Mrs. MAUGHAN, of Norfolk street, have lately been plunged into the deepest affliction, by the death of several of its members resident in London from cholera. Her son, Captain JosErn MaucHAN, was the first victim ; after him his wife's mother, his sister, and a young lady who attended her, successively fell vic tims to the disorder.—East Anglian. The Canadians have a singular method of applying oars to their canoes, by fixing an arm on each side, with a pi❑ through the end, to act as a fulcrum to the oar ; so rigged, a single rower can send a canoe very rapidly forward.—M Taggares Three Years in Canada. One year, about 40 years since, the following casualty appeared in the bills of mortality :—" Killed by a cow, 1." Next year (for the printers keep the heads standing) there appeared—" Killed by a cow, 0." This raised a laugh, and the head was discontinued, or, perhaps, it might have been still standing. The vessel employed at the Bell Rock as a floating light, in 1807-11, when removed, was found to have her bottom covered with muscles three inches and a half in length, and upwards of one inch in breadth, though she had bee❑ afloat only three years and seven months. Previous to being moored she was completely caulked and pitched. Sir WALTER STIRLING died on Sunday, at his apartments in the Albany, at the age of 74. He was formerly the chief partner in the eminent banking firm of HODSOLL and STIRLING, in the Strand, and a member of the Royal Society and other learned institutions. He wits created a Baronet under Mr. PITT'S Administration in 1800, and by his marriage with Susalotatt, sole daugh ter and heiress of GEORGE TRENCHARD GOODENOUGH, Esq., has left issue by her WALTER GEORGE, the present Baronet, and three daughters. Extract from a letter from New York, dated July 24 :—" You will be rendering a service to poor emi grants about to come out here by stating in some of the public papers that it is entirely hopeless. New York is de serted, the cholera rages, and all business at a stand. The workmen who came out by us are many about to return ; others are glad to get work at any price and of any kind; indeed it is a hopeless speculation for any tradesman or workman to think of this country at this moment. PALEY.—This great man, whose mind was so remarkably expert, was particularly clumsy in body. " I was never a good horseman," he used to say of himself, " and when I followed my father on a pony of my own, on my first journey to Cambridge, I fell off seven times ; I was lighter then than I am now, and my falls were not likely to be serious. My father, on hearing a thump, would turn his head half aside, and say, " Take care of thy money, lad."—llleadley's Memoirs of Dr. Paley. PULSATION.—The pulse in the time of IhreocaaTcs was, probably, not mere than sixty beats in a minute ; from which, probably, originates our smallest division of time, denominated the moment, or second, which divides the day into 86,400 parts. As the human species refine, probably, the pulse quickens; and so com pletely are we machines, that like a clock, the faster we go, the sooner we are down. —London Medical and Sur gical Journal. We have received Bengal Papers to the 30th of March. The following is an extract from a Paper of the 27th :—" Sir Wmaror Iloarosz is laudably engaged in measures preparatory to the abolition of slavery in Ceylon. The substance of the address which he delivered to the Kandian Chiefs on the subject, was, that he was desirous of making them fully acquainted how much the question of the abolition of slavery engaged the public attention in England, and trusted they would give it a full and mature consideration.' " These Papers mention an cimenpsooti..stahtiipt of a the Pressndunlookeda-t Madrasfoevent . , the suppression of the The Sovereign for whose amusement the game of chess was invented, offered to the inventor, with true Oriental magnificence, such reward as be himself should choose. The inventor, with apparent moderation, requested only one grain of wheat for the first square of the chess-board, two for the second, four for the third, eight for the fourth, and so on, through the sixty-four squares. The total is of an amount as much beyond ima gination as it was beyond the productiveness of the territory of the incautiously promising Sovereign :- 2 7 , 252,011,216 ,839,361,615 grains. On the Ist instant, a barrow was opened at Mackleford, by Captain SABINE. It was a large tumu lus, about 50 yards in circumference, composed entirely of rubble flints, to the height of about five feet above the level of the ground, and covered with a thin coat of earth. In the centre of the barrow some human bones were found, which are supposed to be part of a skeleton which had been discovered in an erect posture, with its arms ex tended, by Captain SA furie s grandfather, about 80 or 100 years ago, Whto immediately ordered it to be again covered in. On a level with the ground, and under the centre or the barrow, a large stone appeared of a triangular form, convex on the top, and nearly five feet from angle to angle. It was of so hard a nature, that the tools made no itn precsion on it. On removing this stop-, which was with difficulty effected by six horses, it was found to be flat at the bottom, and about 21, feet thick in the middle, decreas ing to about one foot at the sides. It was supposed to weigh 2i tons at least. Underneath was a quantity of rubble chalk, in which, at a farther depth of about six feet, were the bones of a human being, and with them the head of a spear, with three rivets, and also a pin, about six inches long, with a double head. About a foot under neath, the chalk was no longer rubble, hut evidently the native bed.—Sherborne Mercury. CHOLERA MORBUS.--Central Board of Health, Council-office, Whitehall, August 28.—The fol lowing are the totals of the report from the country this day :—Remaining at last report, 1,977 ; new cases, 518 ; deaths, 219 ; recoveries, 330 ; remaining, 1,946.

REGISTRATION OF VOTERS.—It has been matter of reproach, in many enfranchised borough towns, chit the electors have shown much indifference about qua lifying themselves under the regulations The electors of Marlow have distinguished themselves by the alacrity and wirit they have displayed in getting registered. Out of nearly four hundred electors, three hundred and fifty are duly registered, having paid all poor-rates due to the day of registration.—Bath Gazette. TEN RULES TO BE OBSERVED IN PRACTI CAL LIFE —The following rules were given by the late Mr. JEFERSON, in a letter of advice to }IN namesake, THOMAS JEFFERSON SMITH, in 1825 : I. Never put off till to-morrow what you can do to-day. 2. Never trouble others for what you can do yourself. 3. Never spend your money before you have it. 4. Never buy what you do not want because it is cheap. 5. Pride costs us more than hunger, thirst, and cold. 6. We never repent of having eaten too little. 7. Nothing is troublesome that we do willingly. 8. How much pains have those evils cost us which never hap pened ? 9. Take things always by their smooth handle. 10. When angry, count ten before you speak,—if very angry, a hundred.—Penny Magazine. MANCHESTER BURIALS.—It appears by a Parliamentary Paper that the number of burials in the town of Manchester, in each year, from 1821 to 1830 in clusive, specifying the dissenters, was as follows :- 1821. 1822. 1823. 1624.11825. 1826.1827. 1828. 1 1829. 1830.

Many of the interments of dissenters take place in an adjacent township of the extensive parish of Manchester. LADY BARRYMORE.—This poor creature, who has obtained an unenviable notoriety, now lies dan gerously ill in the infirmary of Tothill-fields Bridewell. Strange to say, she was seized with cholera, from which she recovered, but was immediately afterwards attacked with a liver complaint, of which, from the shattered state of her constitution, she is not likely to recover. PICTURES.—The sale of the splendid gal lery of the late M. ERA RD, at Paris, is finished, and though the aggregate produce has not been equal to its estimated value, some of the pictures have gone at very high prices. The " Nativity," by ADRIAN OSTADE, sold for 11,950 fr. A " Landscape," by CLAUDE, with the subject of ENEAS Carthage, for 16,901 fr. The " Education of Bacchus," by POUSSIN, 17,000 fr. TENIERS' " Prodigal Son," 17,000 fr. The Portrait of" GERARD Dow," by him self, 19,250 fr. " A Scene on the Zuderzee," by Van de VELDE, 20,000 fr. " A Sunsat," by CLAUDE, 24,800 fr., and " A Nightfall," by VANDra NEER, 25,900 fr. The " Portrait of Van TROMP," by REMBRANDT, though one of the lots most coveted, was purchased for 17,100 fr., and will, it is said, go to Holland. " The Departure from the Inn," by WOUVER3IANNS, produced 10,220 fr. " A Landscape," by Moucumtox, was knocked down at 6,500 fr., and " The Assumption," by Mun.ILLo, at 10,000 fr. " The Nativity," by PERRUQINO, which cost M. ERA RD 20,0001 r., went at only 2,0001 r. The principal purchasers were private individuals, and many of them from England. The French Government bought but a very few lots. The gross amount of the sale was 765,000 fr., but we have been informed that a great many lots were bought in. A WHITE THRUSH.-Mr. J. BLUETT, of this town, has a perfectly white thrush in his possession, taken a few months ago out of a nest wherein were several other young ones, but all of which besides were of the na tural plumage. The same gentleman has succeeded in domesticating a pair of shovellers, a species of wild duck, rather smaller than the ordinary bird of that description, weighing about 22 ounces, and measuring 21 inches in length. The bill is black, three inches long, very broad or spread out, and rounded like a spoon at the end, with the nail hooked inward and small. This species, says Bzwicr, is of so wild, shy and solitary a disposition, that all attempts hitherto made to domesticate them have failed. —Taunton Courier. ITS AN ILL WIND THAT BLOWS NOBODY GooD.—A tall raw-boned son of the green island was pursued by those harmless doves yclept beadles. PAT was aware of their approach to his mansion, and, having put on a red night-cap, remained undaunted at their appear ance. On being told he must accompany them to gaol, " Ifoul back," said he, " as you value your precious exist ence. I'm an Azetic cholera patient, and if you retreat one step ne irer me, as I live I'll blow my pestilential breath on ye's." A word is enough to the wise—the beadles politely postponed their call.—Ayr Advertiser. ACCIDENT.—A serious accident yesterday morning occurred to a porter belonging to Covent Garden Market. He had been employed to carry a sack of beans, and whilst he had them on his head, in consequence of the wet and slippery pavement, he fell under his load. On being taken to Middlesex Hospital, it was discovered that he had so severely injured the spine, that little hope is en. tertained of his recovery. Yesterday morning, between eight and nine o'clock, the inhabitants of Red Lion-street, Whitechapel, were much alarmed and shocked, in consequence of a boy, scarcely 15 years of age, the son of respectable parents, jumping out of a third story window into the street. The young urchin committed this act in consequence of his mother having found fault with him His leg and arm were broken and his skull fractured, and he was taken to the London Hospital in a state of insensibility. The boy had often threatened to destroy himself, if his mother did not allow him to do as he pleased. Yesterday morning, between eight and nine o'clock, Colonel %Iranians, of Bryanston-street, Bryan ston-square, was riding along Gloucester-place, when his horse suddenly became restive, and commenced kicking and plunging in a furious manner, and afterwards started off at full gallop. Colonel WITHERS gave the animal a violent check by drawing the reins tight with all his strength, which caused the animal to stumble and fall with such tremendous force, that the Colonel was throws off to the distance of between three and four yards, and the aide of his head came with violence to the ground ; he, how ever, appeared to have felt very little effect from it at the moment, and after a short time was enabled to walk to his own residence. While standing to recover himself on the steps of the door, he seemed to be suddenly seized with a fainting fit, and before his servant could catch kold of him, fell backwards down the steps, and again struck his head with great force on the pavement. He was directly car ried in doors, bleeding profusely from the mouth and ears, and, on requisite assistance being obtained, he was found to be labouring under the effect of having ruptured a blood vessel on the brain, and, we regret to state, that he was not expected to survive but a very short time. THE MYSTERIOUS DEATH IN HYDE PARK.-Yesterday a gentleman named JONES, residing at Clarendon House, Kensington, came forward and identi fied the body of the young woman who was found on Sa turday in the Serpentine, as that of his niece. It appears that she was born in the West Indies, and was the daugh ter of Mr. Human, a wealthy planter, who some time ago returned to England with his family, and settled at Bath, where he now lives in great styli!. The deceased was a single woman, and about thirty years of age. A few years ago (in consequence of her father having a large family, and having married a second time) she came to London, and entered into partnership with a dress-maker in Pall-mall. During the continuance of this partnership the decesaed having got into difficulties, received a remit tance from her father of 150/. Some time ago a disagree ment took place with her partner in trade, which was followed by a dissolution of partnership, and the deceased then engaged lodgings in the vicinity of Portman-square, where she continued until Thursday last, on which day she went out and never returned. The woman ENGLAND who resided in the neighbourhood and has absconded, is supposed to be implicated in her death. Several of the military at Knightsbridge have been que.tioned, but no thing has been elicited calculated to throw any light on her death. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. EGHAM RACES, AUG. S. The promised visit of their Maj-stu , to the far-famed ',forte of Runnymede took place, contrary to general ex p ctation, which inferred that the extremely utifavourahle state of the weather would necessarily prevent it. Up to one o'clock there was every app'arance of a fine day ; itrmediately after the clouds gathered, and the rein descended in torrents. In the midst of this storm the Royal Party were on the road to the Course. Their ar rival took place about 20 minutes after I o'clock, and was greeted with loud cheers. The cortege, consisting of four carriages and four, was met at Long Mead by Mr. Building., and conducted up the Straight Mile to the Royal Stand. In the first carriage were the King anti Queen, the Duke of Sussex, and the Princess Au gusta ; in the others were his Royal Highness the Duke of Gloucester, Prince George of Cambridge, and his tutor, the R-v. Mr. Wood, Earl and Countess of Errol, Duke of Richmond, Earl of Albemarle, Lady Westmeath, Lady Taylor and daughter, Sir Frederick Watson, S r A. Bar.. nard, &c. The Royal Party was joined, after the first race, by his Royal Highness the Duke of Cumberland, who was attended by Colonel Quentin. The preparations made for the reception of their Majesties were unusually rxtensive. In addition to the temporary stand er.eted for enabling their Majesties to view the racing, the splendid tents captured from the celebrated Tippoo Sultan were brought from Woolwich, and pitched behind the stand for their accommodation during the intervals, for refresh ment, &c. &c. These tents, which have not been used for 25 years, were exceedingly admired, and fully answered all the purposes intended. The arrangements were highly creditable to Mr. Boulding for their taste and liberality. The unpropitious state of the weather had a prejudicial trect in more respects than one. The ground was very heavy, and the attendance, although highly respectable, was much less numerous than might have bee❑ expected under the circumstances. It is supposed that the assem blage this day (Wednesday) and to-morrow, will be large, their Majesties having signified their intention to be pre sent both days. _ _ _ A little before five o'clock their Majesties left the ground, having previously expressed themselves highly gratified with the sport, and the attention paid them. The following is a list of the racing : The Gold Cup, value 100 sovv. (in specie), by subscrip tions of 10 sovs. each, the winner to be sold for 600 euvs. &c. Two miles. 12 subs. Colonel Salwey na. Maxeppa, 5 yrs Mr. Henry's Margaret, 3 yrs. (rec. lo sove.! Two to lon Mszeppa. It would be a mockery to call this a race. No weight could have brought the two horses together ; Maseppa was in high force, and the mare could scarcely raise a gallop, and to add to her difficulty, the ground was remarkably deep. Mazeppa had it all his own way, and won by at least 100 yards; rode by Pavia ; the loser by E. Edwards. Sweepstakes of 20 sovs. each, h. ft. for two yrs. old colts and fillies. Half wile. Four subs. Mr. Gardner's/ b. f. Cinderella, by Whalebone ... 1 Mr Ley's Partiality 2tol on Cinderella. A very curious race—the two were close together till about ten yards from the Chair, when Partiality was to all appearance winning easy ; the brute then stopt short as if shot, Cinderella being thereby enabled to poke her head in front, in the very last stride, and win, much to the surprise of all who had ❑oticed the running. The winner was jockeyed by Roil, the loser by Wright. Produce Sweepstakes of 30 'ova. each, b. fr. F.Y.C. Sir G. Heatlicote'a c. by Blacklock, walked over.

The annual contest for the wherry and other prizes, given by the inhabitants of St. Clement's Danes and St. Mary-le-Strand, took place yesterday. A more miserable or worse rowed match was never witnessed. It was a complete apology for any thing in the shape of a contest. Scarlett, Pink, Yellow, and Orange, were started for what was misnamed a grand heat, and Joyce and Teasdale (Orange) won it. One pair of the competitors resigned at Waterloo-bridge, after rowing some distance. GRAND OARS WA GER. The Grand Annual Oars Wager by Gentlemen Ama teurs came off yesterday; and, as usual, excited intense sporting interest, many thousands depending upon the issue. The competitors had all been long known on the river, and the expectations of the friends of aquatics were realized in as good a match as ever was witnessed. There were six pairs of oars in the match, and, as usual with the contests in which Gentlemen are the competitors, only one heat was rowed. The distance was to start from buoys moored opposite the Red House, and row from thence through Hammersmith Bridge. Just after four o'clock the competitors appeared in their boats, accompanied by several galleys, manned by their friends, and Jem Parish, Paddy Noultan, and other crack watermen, officiating as coxswains. The following is a list of the competing ama• teurs : Mr. Jay and Mr. Perkins Crimson. Captain Shore and Mr. Wood Pink. Mr. Forster and Mr. Hume Purple. Mr. G. Lauder and Mr. C. Dawson Mr. Horeman and Mr. Layton Green, Mr. Howard Dansay and Mr. Bishop Aaure. About 40 minutes before high water the signal was tired, but, from the anxiety of the gentlemen to get away, this was a false start. Another signal and another false start succeeded, and great apprehensions were entertained that the gentlemen, by these delays, would lose tide. A third time they were placed, and, at the appointed signal, three pairs went off with great rapidity, the others being indifferent at first. Pink had the lead, Azure and Green being stroke and stroke, and close with the Captain'. quarter. There could not have been a more gratifying sight to the admirers of aquatics. The gentlemen main tained their positions until nearing the church. Azure had enjoyed the second place, and Green was drawing on them beautifully. The match was not so pretty here as it had been at the commencement. Pink became distressed nod fell back, and Azure led the van, and arrived first at Ham mersmith by about four minutes; Green was second ; and Purple, who had rowed steadily, came up third. The winners were the favourites at starting, There were Ina few boats on the river. THE FUR TRADE.—We learn by accounts from the United States, that the American Fur Company were making great efforts to rival that of Hudson', Ray, for which purpose they despatched a steam-boat, which hal returned after a voyage of 2,000 miles up the Alis_ ionri, bringing back a rich and full cargo of furs, peltries, tad buffalo robes. The steamer ascended the Missouri 700 miles further than on the preceding year; thus prov mg the entire practicability of steam navigation in that upper region. This enterprise it was expected h et t ed e prove detrimental to the British traders, a steam iwat bad become an object of great admiration to the In ev g Britishaai eedy t h m otn e nw a i i grn u t hy l u t i s l e k d oti w nf b eu waters, t nv' e n t' r lo o: o l t o lh n et T g ld' h e eeA o r icr u lt unas:sleaele:gdfidues aril l s o v r4i f the native, slt a dai t ' a ifirei r id ! v ' - atf' b ut ; g i the a u , ' v t s.r 4 w the boat,
