POETRY. THE DISSIPATED HLTSBAND. He comes not—l have watch'd the moon go down, But yet he comes not—once it was not so He thinks not how these bitter tears do flow, The while he holds his riot in that town. Yet he will come, and chide, and I shall weep, And he will wake my infant from its sleep, To blend its feeble wailing with my tears. Oh ! how I love a mother's watch to keep. Over those sleeping eyes, that smile which cheer My heart, though sunk in sorrow, fixed and deep. I had a husband once, who lov'd me—now He ever wears a frown upon his brow, And feeds his passion on a wanton's lip, As bees from laurel flowers a poison sip; But yet I cannot hate,-0! there were hours, When I could hang for ever on his eye, And.Tinie, who stole with silent swiftness by, Streit'd, as he hurried on, his path with flow'rs. I lov'd him then—he lov'd me too—my heart Still finds its fondness kindle, if he smile; The memory of our loves will ne'er depart. And though he often stings me with a dart, Arenom'd and barb'd, and wastes upon the vile Caresses which his babe and mine should share ; . Though he should spurn me, I will calmly bear His madness—and should sickness come and lay His paralyzing hand upon him, then I would, with kindness, all my wrongs repay, Until the penitent should weep and say How injurld, and how faithful I had been. INIMPOMMONION. IRISH liumona.—The lower orders of Irish are so prone to pleasantry, that even the deepest distress cannot quell the-prevailing humour. A miserable beggar in a street of London the other day was asked by a gentleman relieving him, why lie did not stay at home, since he could not be worse off any where than where he now was? " Shall I tell your Honour truly why we came over ?" was the reply. " If you please." 4 ' Then we came over to look after the absentees !" COBBETT.—The shark is, such an enemy to our seafaring brethren, that sailors have as little com passion for this animal as he has for them. When taken, the work of butchery commences, and, sometimes, after he has been tortured and mangled beyond all hope of recovery, he is consigned to his native element once more. This sea-tiger follows a vessel' for several days, and snaps at and swallows, indiscriminately, every thing thrown in the sea. The sailors, taking advan tage of- this propensity, heat a brick flaming hot, which they cover with sail-cloth dipped in oil very thick, and binding it tight with twine throw it overboard. The greedy glutton swallows it at a venture, and perhaps conceives it at first to be nothing more than a gentle stomachic. In a few moments, however, the sea is all in a foam with his dying and spasmodic convulsions—and the upturned white belly of the monster proclaims to the delighted mariners that the hour of his tyranny is over. We thought of this when we saw in the democratic press some remarks upon William Cobbett—he is a political shark, snap ping at whatever is thrown overboard, and every sailor on that element greets him with a harpoon, or lance, or fish-hook, or whatever engine of an noyance first comes to his has The waters have been in a foam for some time past—the hot brick has been at length thrown overboard, and we now see the white belly of the political mon ster.—(Baltimore Chron.)

Tuesday was the day for making an addition IQ the stake money between Randal and Martin, but, as it was anticipated, the match is off, and without a forfeit, from the: bungling man ner in which . the articles were draWn up.

The matter is not set at rest, and some diversion is likely to ensue. TWO FIGHTS. • . . . Two merry stand-up battles were fought yesterday morning, on the Weald, near Stoke, Bucks. The first was for twenty guineas, between Josh. Davis and Joel Harris, two very good bred ones of eleven stone each. The first two rounds lasted a quarter of an hour,.and the claret flowed in abundance.—Davis was thrown in both rounds. . 3d, Harris received a heavy, facer; which darkened one of his peepers, but he floored'his adversary by a hit in the wind, .which doubled him up. 4th, sth, and 6th rounds- were fought in distress, but the men recovered second wind to the seventh round, and turned to for mischief. It was a gallant round in favour of Davis, who loosened his adversary'S jaw. Bth and 9th, Davis kept the lead, and Harris was blind of an eye, but he floored Davis in both these rounds. He, however, had no chance after, • although he protracted the fight to the fifteenth round, when he was hit down, and was deaf to the call of " time." Davis won it in thirty-two minutes. ill As s, and HAVELL.—This was a merry fight for a five pound purse, and it was won by Moss in twenty minutes, by superior fighting. Havell was the biggest man, but Moss is a straight left-handed hitter at the head, and he mangled his ad versary's prominent organs in good forth.' ANOTHER SHARP SHAVER. An account appearing in the Newspapers of a Liverpool hair-dresser shaving 82 men in an hour, J. Finney, of Burslem, Statibrdshire whp heard of it, undertook to shave 100 in the same time, which he completed, in a superior manner, within one second of the hour and was afterwards chaired through the town in triumph. PEDESTRIANISM. Betteridge started last Monday evening, about seven o'clock to run ten miles in one hour and three minutes, over a half mile piece of ground on,the Old Dover Road, near Shooter's Hill, for a het of ten sovereigns. He ran the first five miles in 31 minutes and a half ; the next three miles were run in 19 mi nutes and a half, and only 12 minutes were left him to run the last two miles. Betting was three to two on time. The ninth mile was run in six minutes. Betteridge was quite fresh, and the last mile was run in five minutes and a half. He won by _half a minute. IMPROVEMENT IN WESTMINSTER.—The houses in the Almonry, Duck-lane ' Pie-street, are about to be pulled down, and a new street is to be formed from Dean's -yard to Pimlico.

A young man was dispatched with some ; and alter being admitted by the same female, was shewn into the drawing room, where three teapots were selected -by her, and taken up stairs for the Lady's approbation. After waiting a quarter of an hour, the young man rang the bell, and found she had made her escape; taking with her the property. She represented herself at the house as servant to a new married couple, who were to arrive in town from Bath yesterday, leaning a deposit of 10s. and giving a reference to a house in London-wall.

The ship Jane, Captain Thomas, of 275 tons, is arrived at the Btoomielaw, direetfrom New York, being the first vessel of her class that ever came so far up the river.--( Glasgow Courier, July 2.) • BURNING or TILE SKIP FAIIILEY.—it is with ileep con cern we have this day to announce the. total destruction by tire of the ship Fairley, Capt. DawsOn, loading in this river for Bristol. It_ appears that On . the afternoon of Wednesday last, between four and five o'clock, the carpenter descended into the gun-rooni in order to draw off some brandy for the ship's 'use, Ho, was a steady trustworthy.. person,. and had been ac customed to draw off spirits occasionally in the absence of the mate. ' He had been but a little time'below, when all was in a blaze around. him ; his clothes immediately.caught fire, and the unfortunate man enveloped in flames forced his way through the cabin window, and in an agony of despair pl un g ed into the stream, where he disappeared for ever ! From informa tion subsequently, obtained, it appears that the carpenter had lost the key, of the cask which contained the liquor, unknown to the master or mate; and it is conjectured that having pulled the cock out altogether, the candle had come in contact with the spirits, occasioning thereby a calamity which has led to the loss of much valuable property. The instant the fire was discOvered the most " strenuous endeavours were made to extin guish it, but it soon.became obviqus that the fire Was irresistibly increasing. Abontfi o'clock the conflagration became general, and the decks were in a bursting State. Every hope of saving the vessel was irrevocably lost, and it being at the imminent risk of their lives'to remain longer on board, she was abandon ed. The work of destruction proceeded -with unabated fury, and at two in the morning the vessel was consumed to the water's edge. 'The loss to Captain Dawson personally by this aistressing• calamity is, we understand,' very great, as he had never thought of providing against any pecuniary loss, by in surance. The Fairley had taken in about 300 hogsheads of sugar and 46 bales of cotton, scarcely any, of which will be saved. A few of the latter were thrown overboard, and have been picked up.—(Gniana Chronicle of May 3.) The Hastings fishermen closed their mackare catching last week. A more unprofitable seasoi they never remember. The - mackarel this year have kept lower down the Channel. So plenty have they been on the coast of Cornwall, that at Looe, within the last three weeks they were fre quently sold at the rate of six for a penny. HORRIBLE occuitittisicE.—On the night of Wednesday last, some wicked incendiary set fire to the house of Mr. C. P. Cahill, of Cranaghmore, in the parish of Drum, within two miles of this town, in the county of Roscommon. The flames communicated to two adjoining houses, belong ing to wretchedly poor people ; and entirely consumed the same, and burnt to death a young lady, Harriet Flood,- an inmate of Mr. Cahill's. Next morning her body was dug out of the ruins ; it presented a most frightful appearance, being almost entirely burned to a cinder. Every possible exertion is making to discover the perpetrators of this horrible doing, hut as yet without effect. A meeting of the Ma gistrates, we hear, is in contemplation, for the purpose of 'recommending to his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant the necessity of placing the parish under the Insurrection Act. On Thursday evening an Inquest was held, in•the abSence of a Coroner, by Coote Mulloy, Esq., and the Rev. George' St. George, magistrates of the county, and a most respectable Jury, Sir R. B. St. George, Bart., foreman. Their verdict was—"'Thatnarriet Flood came by her death in consequence of the burning of Mr. Cahill's house by some malicious person or persons unipown."—(Athlone Herald, June +S.) OLD BAILEY—(T%ns Diy.) Bridget Dart, Eleanor Collins, and lihwbe Elizabeth Douglass, were indicted for privately stealing a quantity of lade, value 125., the pro perty of Mary Ann Nickolls and Sarah Mark ham, residing in Shoreditch, on the evening of the 24th of .'May.—The prosecutrix deposed, that on the evening stated in the indictment the prisoners Dart and Douglas came in and looked at some lace, but bought none ; Collins then'en terecl the shop, but had no conversation with 'each other, and in a' few minutes a piece of lace' was missing. The prisoners were charged with the theft, which they totally denied.—William Henry Hill, a Constable, deposed, that he took the prisoners into custody, and searched them, but nothing was found upon either, nor did any conversation take place between them. lle still suspecting that the property was concealed about their persons, he went for another officer to assist in taking them to the watchhouse, when, on going along, the lace dropped from the clothes of the prisoner Collins, which was after wards identified by the prosecutrix. James Brown, another officer, fully confirmed the last witness's, testimony.—The RECORDER summed up the evidence to the Jury, who, after a few minutes consultation, found Collins Guilty, and acquitted the other twe prisoners. John Pedley was capitally indicted for break ing into the dwelling-house of Mrs. Mary Elgar, a widow, and stealing 12 bottles of wine and spirits, a considerable quantity of copper coin, and other articles, her property, on the 2611 day of May last, in the parish of Hornsey.—The facts not being clearly made out against the prisoner, he was acquitted. About one o'clock this morning the metropolis was visited,by a violent thunder storm, accom panied by heavy rain. The lightning was very vivid, and the peals of thunder loud and long- • continued. At two o'clock all was again calm, and the rain entirely ceased.—The storm com menced again about eleven a'clock to-day, and continued with great violence till near one. A correspondent who was passing along the Hardgate, on Tuesday last, observed two women and two girls travelling to town. On speaking to them he was informed that they had come from the West Highlands, where they could re side no longer, as they bad been turned out of their habitation; and that they were' goirg to Aberdeen to procure a passage to Inverness, where they had some relations. One of the women had a burden on her back ; on being asked if she carried a child in her plaid, she said • it was her grandmother ! Struck with the cir cumstances of a granddaughter travelling with her grandmother on her back, he turned up part of the plaid, and was astonished to behold the t ., pale countenance of an old emaciated woman, aged 102, who had been drenched with rain.--.• (Aberdeen Chronicle.) AGRICULTURAL DISTRESS.—We have received the following curious story from a source, upon the authenticity of which our readers may rely. A gentleman in Liverpool has a considerable landed property situate between Carlisle, and Penrith, from the tenant on which he had, for the last two years, received no rent out of a rental of 3501. per annum. Growing impatient,. he lately thought he might go and see how things were going on on his estate. Arrived on the farm in question, every thing wore the most promising appearance, and stood in a very superior state.. The tenant, however, pled the utmost poverty, and said that he had no money to pay any of his arrears, but promised to use all diligence to' make these - up when times grew better. " But I cannot live on air," said the landlord. " Nor I," said the farmer; " but as every thing on my farm at present looks well, I hope as soon as the harvest is reaped and got in to be able to pay you a part." " But what shall I do in the mean time," said the Landlord. " True, I have some money in the funds, but it is hard to be forced to sell out to obtain a supply for my immediatcosupport, while you have paid no rent for two years." " Very true,' said the farmer, "but I cannot help you ; I have nothing." " Well then," said the Landlord, a since this is the case, I must proceed to London and sell out ; but how am I to get there ? I have no money ; and on you I must rely, in the meantime, far supplying me with 401. or 501. to pay my expenses in going and returning, and during my stay in transacting my bu siness in the capitaL 2 cnnot you spare me as muds out. f the two years' arrears ?"—" Really, Sir, 1 cannot," said the far mer. " But you must," said the landlord—" cannot you raise it by any mean—l cannot go without it, and have nothing at home."—" I will try and borrow it Sir," said the farmer, " but really am afraid I may not succeed." Well, after much apparent difficulty, the 401. was produced, the landlord set off to the Capital, sold out of the 3 per cents. 10001. It must be transferred in the name of the purchaser. This the landlord went to do • the transfer was made out—but in whose favour ? why, in the name of his own tenant, who - owed him two years' rent—twice 3501. The landlord left London without ' delay, returned to Cumberland, poinded the goods and chattels of the poor tenant, and went.home with the two years' rent in his pocket, leaving the farmer on his farm, and the crops and stock as prosperous, and looking as well and hoping as gaily ' as he found them. The 1,0001. was, we believe, returned to the three per cents., which, with other things of the kind, is, perhaps, the real cause of the present very considerable advance en all our Public Securities.—( Glasgow Courier.) DREADFUL EFFECTS OF INCONTINENCE.—An Inquest was held On Thursday by Mr. Hill, Coroner, at the Bell Inn, Eckington, on Thomas Pickerill, aged 33, a road maker, in the employ of Mr. Allen Stokes, of that place, who died early on Tuesday morning, in consequence of taking the preceding night half an ounce of arsenic, in a tit of in-, sanity, occasioned by a too well founded jealousy of his wife, whom he had detected in an improper fami liarit y with , Charles Fowler, .one of his neighbours. It appeared in evidence, that the deceased had forbidden Fowler his house, and that, in consequence, disputes had arisen be tween the unfortunate man and his wife. The affair was laid before a neighbouring magistrate, who advised the hardened woman to abandon the disgraceful connexion ; but to no purpose—the acquaintance continued, and the deceased hearing of their having been together on Monday morning last, upon his returning home in the evening, he questioned his wife as to the fact, when she admitted that Fowler had called ; he then asked her for some sugar, and mixing with it the arsenic he had previously bought, OA it in her presence. The neighbours hearing the altercation, entered the house, upon which he declared to them, he had poisoned hithself—that he was a dead man—and imputed the act to the conduct of his wife. Assistance was imme mediately obtained, but to no effect. The character of the deceased was marked by great eccentricity,, but of in defatigable industry and strict honesty. It waS proved that insanity was in the family • his sister is now in the Droitwich Asylum. Verdict—" Died in consequence of taking poison administered by his own hand in a fit of insanity produced by jealousy."—( Worcester Journal, July 4.) CORN EXCHANGE, JULY 5.
