The vessel afterwards returned to the East India Wharf without further accident. It was intended, when this vessel was built, that, after some experiments had been tried as to her working, &c., she should be taken to pieces and sent out to India in frame; but, en being put together, she presented so much mote solidity and strength than were expected, that Cap tain Johnston proposed to the Directors to take her out across the Atlantic entire ; certain additions and alterations which he proposes, being first made. The question is nut yet decided by the Court of Directors. It is one, however, on which Captain Johnston seems quite sanguine, and certainly it is but fair to say, that as far as the experiments of Saturday went, they tended strongly to confirm his opinion, that (with the proposed additions) she might be safely navigated across the Atlantic. Many captains of vessels, engineers, and others who have seen Captain Johnston's plan, are of opinion that it could be carried into execution with little if anything more than the ordinary risk of a voyage round the Cape. There are, however, others, whose opinions are deserving of re spect, who take a different view of the matter. For our own parts, without pretending to any extensive knowledge of mutie.l sff irs, we should (having seen Captain John ston's plan) feel as much security in a voyage in the Lord William Bentinch across the Atlantic as in any timber.. built steamer of the same size.

JOSEPH ADAMS, Agent, Leith and Glasgow Wharf. A Spacious Sail Loft to Let. (No. 12,.5.11.) LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 16, 183 G AILY CHANT THE SUMMER SOUTHWARK SESSIONS, OCT. 15. ( PRICE ID.) (From the Morning Post, No. 19,291.) " No Musical production of late years has surpassed in elegance and originality the Cavatina of 'Gaily Chant the Summer Birds,' a composition which has been honoured with the universal ad miration of the fashipnahle circles, and which, for its brilliancy, has been aptly termed a gem of sparkling radiance." Mr. De Pinna, the composer of this highly successful sample of vivid imagination, has fully maintained the distinguished popularity he had acquired in his far-famed ballad, There lives a young lassie,' sung with such enthusiastic encores by Mr. Templeton, at the Theatre Royal, Drury-lane. In the bolder style of compositions, Mr. De Pinna has been no less felicitous, in proof of which we may adduce his splendid Songs,' With a Bosom that burns with a Patriot's flame,' and A Pirate's Life,' two compositions which for spirit, animation, and vigorous accompaniments, have not been excelled. For flowing melodies, Mr. De Pinna stands un rivalled. Who ever heard his Serenade, When rosy daylight flies •' his Ballad, `The maid of Venice;' or, his Tyrolienne, 0 ! 'tis sweet at merry morn,' without being delighted with their graceful simplicity ? Published by Keith, Prowse, anti Co., 48, Cheapside. Sarah Phillips was tried upon the other indict ment, viz., for stealing 30 pieces of lace on the 28th of July, 1823. Mr. CHAMBERS stated the case for the prosecution. Thomas Woolcott in July, 1823, was shoprnan to the prosecutor. tie knew a woman named Sarah Lamb, who used to come two or three times a week, I for upwards of twelve months, to purchase goods. On the 28th of July, after she was gone out of the shop, they missed a quantity of lace. She came again on the 30th, and, some more lace being missed, she was given into custody, and two pieces of lace, the subject of the preceding indictment, found /upon her. Subsequently, before the magistrate, a large quantity of lace was produced by Reeve and Kinsey,: the officers, and identified as Mr. Jones's property. The woman afterwards escaped from pri son, and, not being apprehended again, the lace, amounting to 32 pieces, was given up to Mr. Jones. Witness swore that the prisoner was that woman. Reeve, an officer, apprehended the woman called Sarah Lamb, but could not tell whether the pri, soner was the same person. In consequence of private information, after she was remanded to pri son, he and Kinsey went to Clay-lane, Peckham, where they saw two Gipsey tents, and in the one which was pointed out as Sarah Lamb's and her husband's they found concealed in a hamper 30 pieces of lace, all of which were identified by Mr. Jones as his property. Kinsey identified the prisoner as the person who was charged with the felony in July 1823, Susan White, who had lived nearly all her life among gipsies, had known the prisoner as long as she could remember, and never knew her but as Sarah Lamb. In July, 1823, she knew the prisoner and her husband had a tent in Clay-lane, Peckham. One day in that month the prisoner told her she was going up to London to get some lace, and as witness was expecting to lie in very shortly, she offered to give her a piece of lace on her return, for her baby's caps. However, the prisoner did not return, but witness saw the officers examining and stripping the prisoner's tent. About twelve days afterwards (the prisoner having then escaped from prison), wit ness met her at Wimbledon Common, dressed in man's apparel. The prisoner cried, and said she feared that every person who came to her tent was an officer. Witness asked the reason, and she re fused to tell, merely wishing she was out of the country. The witness then detailed the names of various other places where she met the prisoner for several years afterwards. The prisoner never spoke ' of lace, or of her escape from prison, but witness oh- , served that she wore false carrotty hair over her own hair, and on asking her the cause, she refused to tell. for the Lord Mayor, a letter addressed by Mr. Fahy to Lord Orkney, which her Ladyship said was of such a nature that she felt it to be her duty to apply for magisterial interference to secure her from per sonal danger. After Alderman COWAN had read the letter, Lady Kirkwall proceeded to inform him that she appre hended the object of her enemies was to place her in confinement, upon the pretence that she was non compos meals, and a more groundless pretence could not easily be devised. The letter did not really contain any matter of a formidable nature, although it was written in terms which were not exactly adapted to the perusal of a delicate and nervous female, and certainly not calcu lated t• abate any erroneous impressions she might labour under. Alderman COWAN, who observed that the lady appeared to be much excited, did not consider it prudent to make any particular inquiries into the cause of complaint, especially as it was beyond his power to afford relief of any kind. She, however, proceeded to state some of her grievances. Lord Kirkwall had, she said, been upon a money-lending intimacy with the late King and his Royal Highness the Duke of York, and would now, if he was alive, or rather if it was acknowledged that he was alive, be entitled to 100,000/. per annum. She had been separated from his Lordship some considerable time ago, and the Court of Chancery had issued a decree for the payment of 1,000/. a year to her ; but those into whose hands the management of the affairs of the family fell had refused to give effect to the order, and she was obliged to take up her residence with her mother, the Hon. Mrs. de Blacquiere, being wholly unable to sustain her rank in society, and consequently liable to be insulted by individuals, who put the most offensive constructions they pleased upon her feelings of indignation and affront. Alderman COWAN supposed that some of her Ladyship's family had not resisted the temptatiou to interfere in such a case. Her Ladyship said that her brother had some time ago put in affidavits to the Court of Chancery, stating his conviction that her husband was not dead; that he had seen the body of the person who was said to be Lord Kirkwall, and that it was not the body of his Lordship. "But," said her Lady ship, " I can swear that I saw Lord Kirkwall my self a few weeks ago, and the moment he saw me he went off. I am as positive as that lam living that his Lordship is alive." Alderman COWAN told her Ladyship that the matter did not come at all under his jurisdiction.— The Magistrates at Marylebone office, if Magistrates could at all recognise it were the persons to whom application ought to be made. Mr. Hobler, jun., had advised to that effect, but her Ladyship preferred running the chance of redress at the Mansion-house to an experiment elsewhere. Lady Kirk wall—l pledge my sacred honour, and, if you wish, I will swear on the Evangelists, that I consider myself in personal danger, and that the least I have to apprehend is the seizure and confine ment of my person, upon the pretext that I am out of my senses. Her Ladyship then took leave of the Alderman, who handed to her a letter of introduction to the Magistrates at Marylebone. G UILDHALL. of water over her, which drenched her to the very skin. The shock she received, owing to a great portion of the water falling upon her head and face, rendered her incapable of seeing the person who had acted in the mariner she described, and she was led out of the place, and walked from thence to the office. She would not undertake to say that Mr. Reynolds was the individual who actually threw the water over her, bat she was convinced that such ,in outrage would not have been committed on her in his premises without he sanctioned it. The MAGISTRATE, upon hearing the statement, told the unfortunate applicant that she had no right to go near the premises of the person against whom she complained. She had no claim upon him, and after the decided manner in which he had acted on former occasions, in showing his aversion for her, he (the Magistrate) was only surprised that she should subject herself to insult and humiliation by again repeating her visits. Yesterday she attended at the office again, and entreated that a warrant might be granted against Mr. Reynolds for the assault. Mr. CHAMBERS advised her to go home and think no more about the matter, and try to forget that such a person was in existence. She replied, that nothing could erase him from her memory. Her principal motive in applying for a warrant against Mr. Reynolds, was not with the view of having him punished, but for the purpose of meeting him at that office publicly, when she would have an opportunity of avowing to the world her sentiments towards him, arid he upon his part would have a similar opportunity of declaring whe ther he had any attachment for her or not. Mr. CHAMBERS said, that the recent occasion of the bucket of water having been thrown over her on his premises evinced that his sentiments towards her were not altered. She said that she cared not for the water being THE QUARTERLY REVIEW, Nn. XCV. Will be published in a few days. John Murray, Albemarle -street.

Yesterday Ann Thompson, a low prostitute, was brought before Mr. Alderman LUCAS, charged with robbing Mr. Fitzgerald, who holds a situation in his Majesty's Customs, of a valuable watch and ap pendages, and his purse, containing six sovereigns and some silver. Several other witnesses were then called, whose testimony was merely corroborative of the prisoner's identity as being the Sarah Lamb who travelled about as a gipsy, and pitching her tent in various parts of the country. The prisoner, in her defence, never was in Lon don until last July. She belonged to Hindon, in Wiltshire, and her name was not Lamb, but Phil lips. She also denied travelling about the country, and living in a tent. Mr. Fitzgerald—l tell you what, Mr. Alderman, Just give me back my watch, which this gentleman (pointing to the policeman) has got, and there's an end of it.

CABINET MAKERS' SOCIETY, 71, LEADEN HALL-STREET. Edward Lantman, a middle-aged man, of re spectable appearance, was brought before Mr. Al derman KELLY yesterday, charged with uttering a valueless cheque for 101., with intent to defraud. He was remanded till Wednesday, that a clerk from Lloyd's might attend. Q UEEN-SQUAI?E. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty. The RECORDER said the whole of the circum stances of this case were of such a peculiar nature that he deemed it necessary to consider it well be fore he delivered the judgment of the Court. He therefore ordered that she should be brought up for judgment to-motrow. - Mr. Fitzgerald—But, Sir, allow me to tell you that my opinion and yours are different; she knows this watch does not belong to her. Alderman—Well, then, you show me to the con trary. If you don't make any charge against the woman, she is no longer a prisoner, and is entitled to her discharge. Mr. Fitzgerald—With all my heart, do as you like ; if she had left me stark naked and robbed me of a thousand pounds, I would Not prosecute. Alderman—Very well, then there's an end of the case. The prisoner is discharged. Mr. Fitzgerald—But, of course, you will return me my watch. Alderman—l can make no order about it; the watcfi is in the hands of the police ; they will act as they think proper about it. The policeman would not return the watch, but should give it to the Commissioners, who, no doubt, would hand it over to the Sheriff. Yesterday Peter Green and William Spinks, two miserable-looking fellows, were brought up in cus tody by Colley, who is employed by the Stamp office, and placed at the bar before Mr. MARRIOTT, charged with selling the Poor Man's Guardian, an unstamped publication containing news. Mr. NlAanzoT asked the prisoners what they had to say in their defence. The prisoners were compelled to sell the publi cation, which was the only mode they had of get ting a livelihood. Colley said they had been convicted before for a similar offence, and had only been out of prison two or three days. Mr. MAnitioTT committed them to Kingston gaol for one month each.

Mr. Wheeler was surprised to hear one morning that one of his servant girls had, in scrambling over the tiles of the houses, fallen through the skylight of a set of the East India Chambers, and upon making an inquiry, he ascertained that the accident might be considered as a judgment upon her for paying caterwauling visits to the tailors, to whom she had also intro duced her fellow -servant, a girl not 16 years old, whose thoughts had of late been entirely transferred from the kitchen to the cockloft.

Surgeons, No. 11, Bouverie street, Fleet-street, London, turn the visits, and that a general regaling took took place in his house when the girls were not in commoded by his presence. He therefore laid a trap, and succeeded in catching one of the tailors carousing with his maids. Mr. Wheeler stated, that as the inhabitants did not at all relish the new mode of keeping up ac quaintance establish e d by his servants and the tailors, however agreeable it might be to the parties chiefly interested, and as he had several causes of objection himself, lie ordered his apprentice to hide himself, watch the movements of the girls, and give notice of any thing extraordinary. He then left the house, but soon afterwards returned, and found the defendant s quaffin g a bottle of his sherry, to which a plate of seed-biscuits gave an additional relish. The tailor appeared shocked at his entrance, but calmly resigned himself to the police. William Rose, the apprentice-boy, soon after his master's departure, saw Louisa go down and open the wine cellar, after which she went up stairs and admitted the tailor, who accompanied her in great glee to the kitchen. lie could not see what she brought out of the cellar. The LORD MAYOR (to Mr. Wheeler) —Was there any mark upon the corks of the bottles, from which you could determine positively that it was yours ? Mr. Wheeler—No, 1 can't swear that the wine was mine, but I think there is no doubt of it. Louisa—l assure you, my Lord, that the wine was not my master's. I paid 3s. 6d. for it at the Shades. Mr. Wheeler said, that if she bought the wine she treated the tailors with, she must be at a pretty heavy expense, as they had been often seen staggering drunk after paying their nocturnal visits. Salmon had received an invitation to tea from Louisa, and after they had swallowed a dish or two, they changed it for a drop of wine, but he be lieved it was an honest glass ; besides, he came In through the hall-doer, and not in at the window or down the chimney, like a thief or a sweep. The LoRD MATUR said, that many gentlemen who thought their houses were well provided by steady servants were subject to depredations of the kind the moment they turned their backs. The farce of high Life below Stairs was constantly per forming, and if he had it in his power he would make an example of the two prisoners at the bar. His LoßDsmy then dismissed the defendants, who, he was afraid, would not be much benefited by his admonition. The Viscountess Kirkwall, the mother of Lord Orkney, came, attended by Mi. nobler, jun., to the justice -room on F r id ay l ast, to ma k e a complaint against a Mr. Fahy, a medical gentleman. Her Ladyship presented to Alderman COWAN, who sat particulars of the case, and he said that the pri soner and the deceased were in a fishing-boat off Kinsale about the time mentioned, when the former, for some reason or other, beat out the brains of the latter with one of the boat sculls. An investigation of the affair took place at the time, and a large re ward was offered for the apprehension of the pri soner for the murder, but he evaded justice and de tection by flying to this country. Mr. WALKER asked if Driscoll, the accusing party was in attendance ? The polieceman replied—No; though he had given him particular directions to be at the office at eleven o'clock, and it was his belief that he had in tentionally absented himself. The prisoner denied the charge. Mr. WALKER remanded the prisoner until Thurs day, and gave directions that summonses should be served on both the witnesses, commanding their attendanc e on that day. UNION-HALL. A few months ago a respectable young female, residing in Suffolk-street, Southwark, while sitting at her window, fell violently in love with a Mr. Reynolds, a merchant, who was in the habit of passing her door on horseback to his residence in town. Although it appeared that the lady had re ceived no encouragement from the individual upon whom she fixed her heart, yet she managed to find out the place of his abode, and having once ascer tained it, she made a point of being there every day upon his arrival in town. At length herincessant importunities became so troublesome to the object of her affections, that lie was compelled to make application at this office for the advice of the Ma- ..-- gistrate how to act under such peculiar circum stances. Upon that occasion theyoung lady attended before the Magistrate, and candidly confessed that her attachment was so strong for Mr. Reynolds, although he had not encouraged the passion, that she should never be happy until he gave her his hand and heart. The Magistrate endeavoured in vain to point out to the deluded girl the folly of her con duct in pursuing a person who had no regard for her, and her friend s in a few days afterwards managed to take her away into the country. Since that period nothing was heard of the infatuated girl until Fri day, when sh e again made her appearance at this of fice, and applied for a warrant against Mr. Reynolds. Her statement was, that she had walked over to that gentleman's premises in the course of the morn ing, for the purpose of having an interview with him, or if she found that impracticable, merely to have a glimps e of the man that she loved. With these intentions she entered the yard leading up to the offices; but before she had time to look into the counting-house she received the contents of a bucket IRON STEAM-VESSEL. We noticed some time ago the launching of an iron steamboat, built for the East India Company, and in tended to be employed as a towing-vessel on the Ganges. The first experiments of the powers of this vessel having, we understand, realized the most sanguine expectations of the gentleman (Lieutenant Johnston, R.N.) under whose superintendence she was built, and of the Messrs. Manda lay, her builders, and given general satisfaction to the scientific men who witnessed them, it was determined to put them to a still stronger test, in a new series of experi ments to be made below bridge. Saturday last having been fixed upon for that purpose, the Lord William Ben tine k (so the boat is called) was brought to the East India wharf, Blackwell, where the chairman, and several other members of the Court of Directors, accompanied by some scientific men, embarked and proceeded down the river. Before the vessi.l started, she was visited by Admiral Sir Pulteney Malcolm, who, after a very minute examination, expre , sed his opinion that she was in every way fitted for the object for which she had been built. After Sir Pulte ney's departure, the boat proceeded down the river, when the experiments commenced. The first was to ascertain her draught, and from this it appeared that her draught was exactly 22 inches, fore and aft. The next was to ascertain the power of the helm. The result of this was most satisfactory. The vessel answered the helm admirably in coming round; she turned in her own length completely round in 50 seconds. It was next intended to try the working of the machinery, in "starting, stopping, and reversing" them. An accident showed how complete the vessel was in this respect : a small boat, which came alongside, and incautiously attempted to make fast to the fore part of the vessel on the weather side, while she was under way, was very nearly brought under the paddle. wheel, and would most certainly have been destrayed, with probably the two men on board, had not the command to " stop her" been promptly given awl as promptly obeyed. The rapidity with which thia was done proved the perfect working of the machinery. The next trial was that of speed. She went a mile against tide in 8 minutes and 53 seconds. In a subsequent trial, she went the same distance against tide in 8 rgizzv.tes and 21 seconds, and with tide in 5 minutes and 47 seconds. It was intended to have made several other experiments, as to the vessel's powe r o f towing. Tlins it was t o h ave taken one of the C om p any ' s large hcys in tow a m il e w i t h and a mile against th e tide, and next two boys the same distance, but the state of the weather (it was blowing quite fresh), and au accident which occurred when she got to Longreach, rendered it advisable to defer those experi ments to some future day. As far, however, as she had been tried, the vessel came quite up to all the expectations that had been formed of her. The accident to which we allude was occasioned by a large brig, which ran foul of her, carrying away two of her chimney-stays, the whole of the life rail on the after quarter, the tiller and rudder head, lifting the rudder, and straining and bending the piutles. Though this accident prevented the other expe riments that were intended, it was not without its use, as it showed the solidity and strength of the iron work in (From the Elgin Courier of Friday.) It is this day our duty to record some of the con sequences of a tremendous inundation which occur red in all the rivers and burns in this county, on Monday evening and Tuesday morning last. The exient of this inundation, with the exception of the memorable Morayshire Floods of 1829, has never been exceeded within the memory of man. In some respects the present floods were attended with more extraordinary circumstances than the inundation of 1829. That great flood was preceded by 48 hours incessant rain; in the present case it did not rain above 12 hours, and for nearly six of these the showers seemed moderate. During the other six the rains descended in perfect torrents, resembling rather the bursting of a waterspout than an ordinary rain. The wind blew with tremendous force, making it altogether truly frightful to be exposed to the fury of the elements. We have never seen a night which more nearly approached to the idea which one forms in reading Shakspear's King Lear, of the terrible storm to which that unfortunate aged mo narch was exposed, than that of Monday last. The river Lossie came down with a suddenness which exceeds every thing on record. It resembled a vast body of water having broken its embankments, and sweeping everything before it, rather than of a river which had only been swollen by rain. Not having heard of any serious damage done far ther up the river, we commence our narrative at Struan Grove. The Lossie broke her embank inents directly opposite the house, which, in a few minutes after, was completely surrounded by water. ft entered all the lower apartments, and in an incre dibly short space filled them to the depth of four feet seven inches. The furniture, of course, was floating about in every direction, but we are happy to say that the most valuable articles, being in the upper story, suffered no damage. The prudent pre caution of removing the children to Sir Alexander Anderson's, was taken prior to the entrance of the water. One pig was carried away, but another which had been swept into the house by the water, contrived to escape by clambering up stairs to the parlour. The water rushed with such force to the gate of Struan Grove as to cut a very large and deep hole in the gravelly nalk. Mr. Forsyth's farm of Haughland, which is next to Struan Grove, was under water to a considerable depth, and over a space of a great many acres. The embank ments were cut, and the fields overflowed in several parts of both sides of the river in that neighbour hood. Large lochs still lie in the adjoining fields. Advancing onwards a little, the Lossie broke over her embankments at Burrow Brigs, and covered to a considerable depth a large part of that farm. The water was within a few yards of the English Chapel. The whole of Lossie Green was of course covered, and the water advanced as far up the Shambles Wynd as the Red Gate. The lane which leads along Bishopmill to the Bleachfield was covered with water full two feet deep, and those who wished to get to their houses in that quarter, had no alter native, in the absence of a boat, but to wade through the depth of water. At this season of the year, our readers will be prepared for the intimation that the inundation carried away a great quantity of corn which was lying along the banks of the river in stooks. A number of articles of furniture, some of them rather valuable, were also seen floating down r he water. So much for the overflowing of the Lossie. Most of the burns in the county were swollen much more in proportion to their usual size. Indeed, they were, so far as we can learn, without excep tion, much higher than during the terrible inunda tion of 1829. It may be mentioned in proof of this, that a great many bridges over these burns, which were quite uninjured by that flood, have been so much damaged (in some cases destroyed) by this, as to make them impassable. Two of the bridges ott the new road leading from Sheriffston to the Sus pension Bridge at Orton, have been greatly injured, arid a large field belonging to Wharton Duff, Esq. has been, in great part, covered with sand from the overflowing of the usually small rivulet that runs in that quarter. The bridge of Birkenhill has been also seriously injured. The Longbride burn rose to uch a height, that it carried away a smithy, a kiln, arid part of the mill of that village. The above are i tie principal injuries, so far as we have heard done, !iv the great flood of Monday and Tuesday last. They are a mere nothing compared with the destruc tion of property in August 1829. The damage then done in this part of the country was supposed to be about 100,000/. Had the rain of Tuesday morning only continued for a few hours longer, in the same torrents in which it descended for a few ',ours previously, the present flood would certainly lave exceeded that of 1829. The rain seems to rave been principally confined on this occasion to he lower district of Morayshire. Several physicians, sent from Italy to Paris to study the cholera, have, in the account published on their return, declared their conviction that the disease in that apital was contagious. It is remarkable that while the prictitioners residing in towns where cholera prevails have often been non-contagionists, an opposite view has .linost invariably been taken by those having no local in -erests, but sent from a distance to watch the disease, for ,he guidance of those in places where it had not reached.

EMIGRATION.—SeveraI large vessels have -ecently left the London and St. Katharine-docks, with re .pectable tradesmen and small capitalists and their families, or Van Diemen's Land and New South 'Wales. Three .hips sailed last week for those colonies, with as tinny iundred passengers of both sexes, whose respectability is ! uaranteed by the high price o f the passage money-1;om 151. to 30/. each person. The r brig Ell n, uouno to iydney, was hauled out of St. Katharine's-dock on Satur lay, and left the river yesterday, with about 120 pas .engers, amongst whom were several agriculturis s and ,heir families.
