Ni r yytourn, MAY 27.—Passed by Portland thii morning the Honourable East India Company's ship Farquharson, from China, left the Ist February. The purser landed heie this morning, and brings the dispatches respecting the unfortunate transaction which occurred with a boat's crew of his. Majesty's frigate Topaze and the Chinese, in which one of the - natives was killed, and fourteen of the English sailors wdunded.—All trade with - our ships was wholly stopped froth the 23d December. The only ships besides ready for sailing were the Rent, and Repulse; twelve Company's ships remained unladen ; nor was there any prospect, at the departure of the Farquharson of their bein g allowed to tak e o n b oar d t h e i r cargoes by . orderof . the Chinese Government, as will appear by the edict it has published.—The subscription towards the re lief of the suffering Irish daily increases ; it amounts a l ready. to upwards of 1.01.--In addition to which the members of the All Souls Lodge have transmitted five guineas to the general fund, which it is to be hoped will be followed by every Lodge in the kingdom. DISTURBANCE IN WEsTstiNsTEn.---Yesterday evening the vicinity of Great Peter-street, West minster, were much alarmed by a disturbance breaking out in the Duke's Head public-house among some low Irishmen, who having got drunk, commenced fighting and retired into the street, when a general conflict took place. The inhabi tants fearing that serious consequences would ensue, instantly sent to Queen-square Office for some of the Police, who soon arrived, and rushing in among the rioters they at first dispersed in all "directions, but several others joining them they rallied, and being well supplied with brickbats and stones,attacked the officers most furiously. A party of the. Bow-street patrole, however, came up at this moment to the assistance of the police, when the' assailants fled in all directions, and in the retreat a pistol was fired at the patrole, and soon after the report of a second was heard, which shot a man named Welsh, who it appears was a party in the row, and wounded him in the hip near the groin. The officers pursued the rioters for some distance, and succeeded in securing no less than thirty-five of them, whom they lodged in safe custody.—On inquiry this morning at the hospi, tal we learnt that the unfortunate man lies in a dangerous state. • • his MAJESTY will this evening, go in state to the Italian Opera:„-.. YeSterday the Duke of YORK transacted mili tary business with the KtSw. • The Duchess of GLOUCESTER visited his • MAJESTY. yesterday.--Yesterday the Princess AUGUSTA had a select Party to dinner. • The Marquis WELLESI.EY announced to the Lon.D.MAYCitt of Dublin, on Friday last, the intention of Mi nisters to repeal the Irish 'Window Tax, which caused the utmost joy to prevail throughout that city. A report is in general circulation that Lord BARRYMORE died a few days ago near Paris. Long leases in consequence can now be granted for tenements at Fermoy.— (Cork Paper.) A meeting of the Court of Proprietors of East India Stock is to assemble to-morrow, for the purpose of con sidering of a vote of thanks to the Marquess of HASTINGS, for his successful and brilliant administration of British India, during an eventful period of nine years. The - Subscription in aid of the suffering Irish, 'at Newcastle-upon,Tyne, amounted to nearly 5001. on Satur day last- The Madras Government Gazette, of the 18th December„ 1821,; contains - the following - paragraph :—" It is our painful duty to record the death:of another of his Majesty's Judges in India,. _ The -Hon. -Sit; W. D. EVANs, Recorder of Bombay, died on the sth instant; after a very short illness. Thus the Bench.et.theSiscer PresidenCyhaS . again lost its only Judge." It is said that the. tax-collectors in Mary-la-bonne parish .iiimexeceived notice of no less -than.3oo carriages being laid. _At: the tithe,audit, last , week, for the parishes of Southhill and Callington, the Rev. Mr. TREFUSIS informed the parishioners, ;that in consequence of the depressed state of agriculture, he . should deduct 10 per cent. from the amount of their respective compositions, which he did accordingly. This. reduction - was generously' made without any previous applica tion omthe part of the ,payers.—( West Briton.) W. M. BoimiwiuK, present prisoner in this' Jail, accused of stealing .PaPers and L e t ters from the Sentinel Printing Office, Glasgow, was this day indicted to stand trial at Edinburgh, on Monday the 10th of June. From the state ment in 'the - House of Conn:bons on Tuesday night, it appears that the trial,of Mr. STUART, for killing Sir Alex. Boswell in a duel, is fixed for"the same day.—( Okise.ow Courier, May2s.) At the 'great . Whitsuntide Fitir, at Stagshaw, NOrthumberland, on Saturday last, there was a very good attendance. Horned cattle for summer's grazing, were rather on: the advance. Sheep and lambs were a large supply, and the sale dull. Mulch cows were in request, and fetched im prOvecl prices. Pigs were also looking up. There was but a poor show of good horses : t ho se t h at were recommen d ed by action and figure fetched very high prices the inferior sorts sold very low. . On Friday miming last, at about half-past eleven o'clock, the large flax-mill of Messrs. Clarke and Plunimer, at the Ouseburn, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, was acci dentally set on fire by a s p ar k f rom one o f the chim nies falling in at a window; near to which a parcel.of tow was lying. Not withstanding " every effort to keep the fire under, the flames spread with great rapidity. The fire-engines were prompt in their appearance, and by their activity p revente d great e r mis chief. A great deal of damage, , however, has been sus. *tied ; thatglf, from what we understand, we trust the pro prietors *ill eventually incur no great loss; the property being pretty well covered by insurance.

Yesterday forenoon her Royal Highness Princess Sophia of Gloucester had an interview with their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Denmark, at their residence in Wim pole-street ; after which their Royal Highnesses - left town for Hampton Court, and in the evening returned to dinner. The nuptials between Charles Brownlow, Esq. M. P., and Lady Mary Bligh, eldest daughter of the Earl and Countess of Darnley, are to be solemnized on Friday next at his Lordship's seat, Cobham-hall, Kent. A Letter from Sweden says—" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince quitted Stockholm on the 9th,instant. He was escorted to the gates by the .Burgher-Guard on horseback, and a great mass of military officers, immense crowds of p eo pl e ac companying the c ava l ca d e , and shouting hurrahs every three or four minutes. On the sth there was a grand levee at Court, at which all the public funetionaries, grandees, &c. attended, to wish the . Prince a sa& and pleasant tour. In the evening, the King gave a grand ball, at which 450 of the most distin guished individuals of SiVeden were present. Quadrilles en costume were the favourite dance. On the 7th, his Majesty gave a superb dinner, by way of finish to the ceremonies. It was numerously attended. The Prince will stop three or four days in Copenhagen, and then repair to Brussels, to pay a visit to his mother. It is presumed he will go to London, and thence travel throngh the country. ,He. is accoMpanied by a brilliant suite, namely; th.. , !

Mills; theatrical amusements, concerts, &c., were to be the order of the day; and Spontini, the Director of the Opera-house, was to produce a new piece in honour of the, occasion.' Dr. Koreff, Upper Government Counciftor, and Professor of Medicine in the University of. Berlin, has had leave of ab sence granted to him by the King, for tw•o years. lie visits England and Scotland. His attention will be particularly di rected to the public Hospitals, Lunatic Asylums, &c. of the country. He is a sdientific man, and has already distinguished himself by his labours in the Medical and Chirurgical Depart ments. THE ARTS.--We had not till yesterday an op portunity of witnessing the Exhibition which Mr. WARD, R. A., has opened , at his own house, and which displays the variety of his own pciwers in a manner highly creditable to his genius.-- He has long held a decided superiority in paint- . ing the animal world through most of its diversi ties, and he is particularly excellent in repre senting horses and various species of the canine race. Iris, great room is- filled with a variety of productions, which could 'hardly be expected from the talents of a single individual, His ori ginal compositions consist of beasts of prey, cattle, horses, dogs, portraits of the human spe cies, landscapes, rustic characters and incidents, studies, &c. &c. There are also some tine copies of heads from RAPHAEL, from works of IttleENs, and his own admirable copy of TITIAN'S celebrated picture of Diana and iletcon. On the whole, the collection does honour to the talents of Mr. WARD, in choice of subjects, force of character, correct drawing s vivid colouring, and it may fairly be classed among the triumphs of TIIE BRITISH SCHOOL. THE LATE BISHOP OF . A.' RMAGII.—The Will of the Most Rev. and Right. Hon, •WITA.I.ANI STUART, Lord Archbishop of 4rmagh, Primate9f all- Ireland, was proved. in Doctors' Commons on the 23d inst. by the Hon. Sophia Margaret Stuart, widow, his relict, and hisson Wm. Stuart, Esq. two of the executors: The Right .Rev....lSiathaniel Lord Bi shop of Down and COtinor is appointed, but has not yet takari the trust. His• Lordship, in the first•place, gives to,his wife 3,0001., to be paid immediately after his decease, which sum is to be;con sidered an ademption, and in satisfaction of one thousand pounds provided by the marriage-settlement, and charged upon his Leicestershire estate, to be paid to her in case he should not , bequeath her the same by his will.. The interest of 20,0001: is also left to her for life, and after her death the princi pal to the Residuary Legatee. To his Lordship's daughters the Honourable Mrs. Knox and Louisa'Stuart one thousand pounds each. 'To his son . Henry forty thousand pounds at twenty-one, the interest in the mean time to be applied at the discretion of the Executors, for his eduCation, &c. and in case of his death during minortt).r, the principal to fall into the re sidue. The leasehold h ouse in Hill-itreet, with all the furniture (except only the linen, china, and earthenware, which is given to Mrs. Stuart), and all plate, books, and pictures whatever, with the residue of personal and all freehold estates, are left to his Lordship's eldest son William. One thousand pounds is given to the Bishop ofDown with his appointment as executor. The will is dated on the Ist of May last; a Codicil is added on the same day bequeathing twenty thousand, pounds to his said daughter Louisa, in case he should not settle that sum upon her in his life-time. The personal estate within the province of Canterbury is sworn under 250,0001. We never recollect so much interest to have been excited amongst the sporting world as by the approaching Ascot Races. The preparations which are making for the presence of his Majesty have 'perhaps materially contributed to this. We un derstand that there is at present great difficulty in procuring beds in the neighbourho.--( Windsor ,Exprets. ) In a field.near St. Columb, belonging to the Rev. Mr. Tre fusis, a blackbird's nest, with three young ones, was found in a large turnip, the centre of whi c h h a d b ecome decayed.

SOUTHAMPTON, MAY 25.—1 n consequence of a requisition to the Mayor (GEORGE ATHERLEY, Esti.), very numerously .and respectably signed, a public meeting was held at the Audit-House this day, at twelve o'clock, in behalf of the suffering Irish. Resolutions were entered into for an immediate subscription, which were introduc e d b y Dr. Wightman, who, in a brief spe ec h, alluded to the pleasing spectacle that is presented by the zeal and energy of the British nation, in favour of the suffere rs i n th e s i ster ki ng d om. F am i ne, ' in itself always sufficiently terrible, may be expected, in their cases, as in so many simila r i n st ances , to b e f o ll owed b y pestilence. .Hence the most prompt and the most _liberal mea sures that public generosity can a d o pt, are d eman d e d b y the urgency of the present most painful case. Resolutions were put and carried, the purport of which was that books be opened at the different banks in fie town to receive subscriptions, which are to be transmitted to the Committee in London. Thanks having been unanimously voted to the Mayor, the meeting was dissolved.

Bisn's Offices appear to be the favourites ; perhaps this is because he sold in Shares both the Two last Prizes of Twenty Thousand Pounds ever drawn. PIDDING and Co., No. 1, Cornhill, are certain there are two Points in the present Lottery, which, having always been favourite Points with the Public, will require very few words by way of eulogy —one is, there will be no suspense, the whole Lottery being to be decided in one Day, (Next Tuesday)—the other.is, that the Tickets and Shares are sold at a cheap Rate—yet there are not two Blankg to a Prize—No Fixed Prizes All Sterling Money—Sixteen Capitals, all afloat. —and Two of 20,000.—PIDDING and Co. have rather a confident- prepossession that - some of these are now on sale at the Lucky Corner, No, 1.

Yesterday. the Anniversary. festival' of this ex cellent" Society was celebrated at the Freemasons'. Tavern. His Royal Highness the Duke of Yofk We'd 'to have presided on the occasion, but from some unknown cause did not make his ap pearance. The company, waited till seven o'clock, the dinner being ordered at half-past five, and were almost ready to despair, when Mr. Pettigrew, the Surgeon of the Institution, dispelled all their fears by stating that the Institution had received a letter from Major-General Sir Robert Taylor, dated the 22d of May 1822; which stated " that he was ordered by his Royal. High ness to say that he had not fozgotten his , promise to attend th e Anniversary-of the London Infirmary ; ' now he, •Mr. Petti grew, must conclude that, not having heard from his Royal Highness since that period, and, of course, not concluding he had altered his mind, he could not do otherwise than think his Royal Highness had been-detained at his Levee this day. In consequence of so great a disappointment the Society felt con siderable embarrassment. Under .such difficulty he had the . satisfaction to inform the Company that the Hon. Washington Shirley had kindly consented to take .the Chair.---(Applause.) After the cloth was removed, Non Nais Dontine was given with fine effect by Messrs. Pyne, Lewis, Taylor, Watson, and Tinney. The CHAIRMAN then rose and said, that he had taken the Chair under extreme difficulty on an extraordinary occasicn—an occasion which called for powers of. the first order—powers to which he had no claim ; he begged therefore, if he did not come up to the ideas of the company, they would excuse him; he would do his s utmost, and trusted he .should meet with their support. He was conscious that he could not fill the Chair with such eclat as His Royal Highness.—(Applause.) —He should not' detain them any longer, but conclude by saying, he hoped they would take the will for the deed. " The King," " Royal Family," and " The Azmy and Navy," were then given. • The CHAIRMAN rose to propose a toast, which. he was sura every man present would drink with heartfelt zeal—The health of " His Royal Highness the Duke of York," With three times three. • After which the .CHAIRMAN rose and observed, that-he begged once more tointrude upon' their time and attention. It was on a subject which he was sure when they 'Considered it they would not grudge their time, their interests,.their best en, deavours, to prorhote a most meritorious Charity—he meant the ' London Infirmary. He assured them that no one could be more sincere in his wishes for the welfare of this Charity than himself; he 'therefore proposel to 'give `4 Prosperity to the London Infirmary." Mr.•PETTIGRtIV read the Report of the. Societ', which presented a most flattering account, and stated a'great number of individuals that had becn- relieved. He made. various coin, meats on - the great utility of the Society, the ninny advantages it possessed, and claims it had on all classes of .people. He concluded by saying, that flattering as the Report was, still he begged to say, that such a Society could not continue in so prosperous a way without the aid of 'further contributions, )wanting-on which, he. trust e d would not be- so good an oc casion. " The Royal Patroni and Patronessei of the Society," the healths of the Chairman, the Marquis of Anglesea, the Presi. dent of the Institution, the Medical Officgs.of the Society, and other toasts; followed, and were acknowledged in appro. priate spee'ches. . • The dissatisfactions we lately noticed amongst he masters and Crews of the vessels.,--ttading from .11ayle to' Wales, in consequenee of the determination. of the Copper Cempanies to reduce the freight of. ores ) has this , week, we are sorry to observe, manifested itself in acts - Of riot. - An agree. meat, it seems, had ;been, come,. to by .the masters that no ores should be 'shipped at his than the usual price, and to this they, for some time, adhered.

A woman, on her way home to service, had advanced a little way across the bridge, when she was met by a train, of coal-waggons, and being reluctant to return she attempted to stand close up to the parapet while they passed She was immediately thrown down by them, and so shockingly mangled. by the wheels of these machines that she lingered till Tuesday morning, when her sufferings ended in death. The rail waylaid along-this bridgeleaves an apparent iPacancy, in which': were the waggon wheels, to occophno part of it, a person might possibly stand while they passed. These wheels p ro j ect b eyon d the iron on which they run, and literally - leave not one inch of the whole breadth of the bridge unoccupied ; in many places they graze upon thearapet,leavingfregueut traces of their con tact on both sides. The'frequency ofsuch catastropes at this spot calls for some regulation' whith mhq preiedt their recurrence the driver ought to be ordered to walk before the horse that draws the tram, and to warn those who might be already on the bridge to retire, and those approaching to keep back till the waggons had crossed,—( Edinburgh Courant, May 25.)
