FRENCH PurE.—We find the following inge nious puff in some of the French Journals : " Last Friday, whilst M. TALNA was playing Hamlet, at Airas, an incident occurred which aug mented the terror of the spectators, produced by the scene in the sth Act, in whiuti Hamlet is on the point of stabbing his mother. An Officer present was si violently affected by the assumed indignation of '!'ALMA, at the moment he raised the poniard, that it became necessary to carry him out of the theatre, where his cries caused the greatest agitation. His first words, on coining to himself, were, Hos he killed his mother?' " Miss O'Nemt. has been dangerously ill at Bou logne, where she lately arrived for the benefit of her health, but is now better. CoLONEL HELLISH.--The remains of this well known gentleman were interred at the village of Blythe, the place of his former residence. 'He had long been in a very declining state of health.

FATAL Duat..—!-A meeting took place thil,even ing, about five o'clock, in a field near the Black rock-road, between Lieut. W— and Lieut. both of the Royal Navy, and residents of this city, when „unfortunately on the second fire, the latter was mortally wounded.—(Cork Chronicle, Aug. 13') SUICIDE.—About eleven o'clock yesterday a re spectable. inhabitant, residing next door to The Job Castle, in White Lion-street, Norton Faigate, put an end - to his existence, by shooting himself through the bead. The deceased was about GO years of age, and had been married to a woman much younger than himself, who is now in a state of pregnancy. Ot late they were heard to have 'frequent quarrels, and yesterday morning he beat her most unmercifully, till she was obliged to fly for shelter from him, and hit'e herself up stairs. The report of a shot from the house brought se,- i!eral of the neighbours as well as the passengers to the door, when they found his brains scattered across the street, and part of them even blown against the front wall of the opposite house. His body was lying near the street door with half the head blown to atoms, and he was in the last ago nies of death. lie was by trade a shoemaker. ANOTHER CHILI) SToLEN.—Thursday last, a Child was stolen at Kensington, almost in thesame manner as that for which Mrs. H. Molineaux Hamilton was lately convicted at the Old Bailey. —The wife of a bricklayer's labourer sent her eldest daughter, about twelve years of • age, out with an infant ; three months old. The girl was standing talking with a play-fellow, when a Lady, dressed in a blue silk pelisse . and white lace veil, came up and told the girl, that site knew her mo ther, whose name she mentioned, and that she had some needle-work she Wished her to do, and re queved the girl to go home and bring her, and site would hold the child in time mean time. The girl immediately delivered the child and ran home ; and the child who had been playing with her says, the Lady instantly got into a chaise-cart standing near, with the help of a man that drove it, who merely said, " down the road ?"—the answer was, " yes ;" and they drove off with th e i n f an t a t speed. When near the turnpike by Phillimore place, the horse fell. The man jumped out, and having raised the horse, sat off with increased speed. At this time the Lady had divested her self of both her pelisse and veil. Nothing has since been heard of the child, though every in quiry has been made at Hammetsmith and all the surroundine, inns. The parents are almost dis tracted, but are too poor to make further pur suit. The infant was very sickly "anti weak. It is supposed from the Lady knowing the name of the mother, and the few words that passed with the driver, that the whole was a preconcerted plan. A warehouse in Wallace -court, Bell -street, Glasgow, was broken into last week, .two desks therein forced open, and a Loudon bill for 1981. carried off. A few days afterwards the owner of the warehouse received, through the Post-office, the folloWing letter, enclosing the bill stolen : " CoRNELUs 11ROWN—I nc.thing indebted to you now, but eighteen pence in copper--which I shall honourably' pay when 1 return from Paiseky Fair.—Yong servant, . . " A PUBLIC KOBER. " P. S. Things is de - yilish dull otherwise I would not. have taken the Copars. " W. S." irhe letter is written in a feigned haid ; and, troth the Address on the outside, it is obvious that the author can not only spell well, but that he is a very good penman. A few days since, as GoDFREY WEBSTER was taking an airing on horseback, he observed lying on the brink of one of is ponds in the Abbey-park, aMa ha. which led him to fear that some person had drowned himself; lie there lore lost no time in getting the pond dragged, by means of which the body was soon found, and proved to he that of a young man, who worked as a journeyman collar-maker at Battle. It is supposed he had lain two hours in the water, con sequently no hopes of resuscitation could he enter tained.. Disappointment in a love affair is sup posed to have driven him to the rash act. his remains were taken to %Vadhurst, where his rela=. lions live. It is well worthy of remark, that no former Lottery was ever known to contain so few Nom hers its the present (2,900) ;rand when it is consi dered that there are 'lwo Pt izes of 20,0001. mod that an opportunity of gaining 40,0001. is offered to Adventurers, by purchasing Tickets of the same Number, the rapid Sale which they have al e dy expetienced is out at all astonishing.

We therefore pay our hearty tribute of thanks, in which we are sure we shall be folloWed by our Countrymen, - in pro.. portion as the Work becomes known, and it must soon be known universally, to the ingenious author and compiler, and we see with anich pleasure that his patriotic heal and indefatigable assiduity haul been in a great measure rewarded by a very exten sive subscription, including some of the most illustrious of our Countrymen. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF Au u. IS. OPERA HOUSE.-WATERS V. TAYLOR. JUDGMENT ONCE NIORE SUSPENDED; The LORD CHANCELLOR On coming into Court observed, that more calculations in this case were presented to him, and' he enquired of the agents what they meant ? Mr. MILLs, Solicitor for Mr. Waters, replied, that the former calculation was wrong, and that it was necessary a new and correct one should su persede it. The LenD CHANCELLOR asked if the parties Were agreed in the Lew clicnlation he Solicitors answered-No ; the differences bet ween them were tin) g re:it to be reconciled. Sir S. RoM ILLY said, that 3.6901. had been paid by Taylor on Waters' mortgage, yet that Waters claimed the whole of the mortgage. Tilt! LORD CHANCELLOR Said he question was, whether he should order the 28,0001. out of the fund in Court, deducting the 36001. to be paid iiito the hands of the Aeconntant•General, to the exceptions in the Master's Report, and that, he added, must depend upon affidavits which were laid before him. Sc) long ago as April. Mr. HART observed, that atter paying Mr. Wa ters what was due to him, Mr. Taylor would have kit enough to satisfy all the other claimants. Sir S. ROMILLY said, it was very hard that Mr. Taylor'3 money should be ordered into Court, while Mr. Waters was allowed to keep his in his own pocket.• The LORD CHANCELLOR then asked the Solici tors, if they 'were content that he should decide the case according to the papers which were be fore him. The Solicitors, Mr. MILLS and Mr. DuTTY, severally answered in the affirmative ;,,,when Lordship said, he should give judgment to-morrow - morning ; for winch purpose he desired the Soli- Citors to at:end that Court at a quarter before nine o'clock. be Court will give judgment to morrow in all motions relative to the payment of money into Court ; and his Lordship added, that he had that moment signed. an order, by which the office of the Accomptantftieoeral would be kept open a few days longer than had been origi nally intended. ANOTHER CHANCERY MANIAC.-111 the Court of Chancery, on Saturday, the business was disturbed by a young man, who has been 'several days in at tendance, and who was vilible to 'every person to he insane. On Saturday .he sat amongst ti,e sel, outside of the Bar, and immediately opposite the Lord Chancellor, his countenance in continual grimace. Directions were given that should not be again admitted to that part of the Court. Yesterday he again attempted to obtrud e himself, when ;11r. Baker (his Lordship's tipstaff) pre vented him ; on which he raised a stick of 'colos - 4 sal size, and attempted to strike him. Mr. Baker seized him by the collar, and was forcing him out of Court, when he called to his Lordship for pro.: tection. Not being answered, he exclaimed, " I shall go to the Prince Regent directly, and com plain of your Lordship's ,conduct. l mill go to Brighton directly to him, cv:ti if I should walk barefooted." He was then conducted Out of Court ;. but in a few minutes found his way' into the Vice-Chancellor's Court, and complained of the indignity he had received from the Ltd Chancellor. Not receiving any reply, he flourish ed his stick, and Said by to-morrow his Lordship should he s(-rved with an order from the Prince: Regent to treat him with more respect in future. He then walked about Lincoln's Intl-square for a considerable time. This unfortunate young man, we understand, had been a Clerk in Messrs. Pea cock', °dice for some time ; hut those respect able Solicitors were obliged to discharge hide on account of his incoherency of manner and incon sistency of conduct, although in all pecuniary transactions lie bad been correct.
