they entered their state earners, and, attended by an im-
mense cavalcade, started for Southampton. The pro-

wee intereetieg in the extreme. To a person look-
ing from a balcony, the antique robes of the ma-
gistrates, councillors, end corporate officers, the en-
rent mankipal insignia, the Stunting banners, and the
gay carriages and horsemen almost seemed to harmonise with
the architectural character of the building ; and it required
no great stretch of the imagination to fancy the splendid
pageant passing by to be formed of princey burghers of
some great continental town in the middle agog, celebrating
sore high festival or holiday. After passing through the
Bergate the groceries moved towards the quay, at the bottom
of the High-street. Bach was its immense length that by
the time the front of it had reached the quay, the rear had
seereely entered the town. The procession, after going towrdo
the pier, proceeded along the margin of Southampton water.
After paring the Soethampton Docks it proceeded towards
the lichen river, and wending through siverel of the
principal streets it directed its course to the mayor's resi-
dence, where it halted amidst ringing of bells and tremen-
dous cheering.

BEAUTIES OP TILE GAME LAWS.—STRANGE CON-
DUCT Or A O At the Police Court, Bleck-
burn, on Wednesday last, Ephraim Bourbons, gamekeeper
to J. Fenders, Esq., was *Urged with having consarned an
teepee:iv:iced assault upon Mr. Edward Walsh, innkeeper,
Mellor Brook, and upon an old man, of the same place,
named Thomas Metulfe. Mr. Clough appeared for the
complainants, and Mr. Sukhumi for the defendant. Mr.
Clunk stated that on Sunday morning last, about half put
on. e'clocke the complainants, as was their usual custom once
• year, left Mellor Brook to go on lands in the neighbour.
hood of Sunderland for the purpose of gathering
mushrooms, Sunderland Hall being in the occupation of
Mr. Walah's relations. Winn they got to Can's C ettage in
Balderston., they met Sourbutts and six other men. Sour-
butte, without saying one word, seized the old man, and be-
gan to rifle his pockets, and did it so violently, that the old
man, to save his coat being torn, pulled it off and gave it
to him. Whilst this strange conduct was being performed,
Mr. Walsh seizdi Boarbutts, and carried him three or four
yards, saying, " Ephraim, this won't do," upon which
therbans replied, " Yu, it will: and it shall do for thee,
too ;" and, suiting the action to the word, he immediately
mind Walsh, and felt In every pocket two or three times
tearing one of the pockets, and also taking out a yellow silk
handkerchief. Walsh never resisted such an unaccountable
attack, and merely said, " mike thee pay for this ano-
ther day, as thou bast no right to eeareh me."
Sourbutte said be had a right to search him, and
anybody whom he pleased. The defendant also said,
" That's for losing Jem Brown," alluding to a poacher
who had been released from custody, by meney lent by Mr.
Walsh, at the solicitation of Browa's friends. As the com-
plainants were leaving, Bourbons exclaimed to the men
who were with him, "Let's follow 'em," but one of them
said, "No; th Mei got thyself into • scrape already, don't
go any farther;" or something to that eff:ct. Mr. Walsh
and his companion, being men of whom the game keeper
could not have the beet suspicion, and (indepcndent of that)
nothing whatever being found in their pockets bat a little
bread, cold hue, he., was suth :lent proof that the assault
committed by Bourbons was without the 'lightest provoca-
tion, and without the "Wilton suspicion that they were in
parson of game, even had they been in the fields instead of
being upon the high road. Mr. Clough, alter dwelling upon
the illegality of the game keeper's search, called Mr. Walsh
sad Neiman who fully bore out the whole of the above
bets, and likewise positively swore that the defendeat on
the morning in question was sunny intoxicated. Mr. Clough
'Minuted that his cheats merely wanted protection, ai.d
therefore, if the defendant were bound over to keep the
pesos, that would be quite astisfaceoey. Mr. W. Bodes,
after a short consultation with the Rev. J. Hopwood and
Thomas Dngdale, Esq. (the other magistrates on the bench)
said that if they bound the defendant to keep the pease, it I
would reader him unfit to discharge his deities as a game
keeper to Mr. Fieldea in Inhere ! The search 11111 not war-
ranted by law, bet that might be the subject of a civil
action. He (defeadast) did not get held of Walsh for the
purpose of assaulting him, bet for the purpose of
searching for snares or anything of that sort. After
again alluding to the inconvenient* that would be en-
tailed upon Bourbon' if required to keep the peace, Mr.
Eccles concluded by saying, "We don't thick we should
dismiss the cue in the ordinary way. We shall not allow
anything to the witnesses oe either side. We shall simply
leave the parties to pursue their own remedy la their own
way ! "—l'reefen Guardian.

hoots have bees visited by a gale of extreme vier-
lease. The agricultural reports are still, however,
with very few exceptions, comparatively favoarable.
Those frees some of the midland and southern dis-
tricts coarsest to speak in very gloomy terms of the
wheat, and throughout the country there is little doubt
that that crop is much below the average; bat the pro-
duce in the other species of grain is expi end to be
abundant, and of fine quality ; and of the potatoes we
have no fresh reports of the progress of the blight.
The tubers are still, in the great majority of eases,
perfectly sound, and those brought to market scarcely
in any instance exhibit symptoms of the disease. The
prospect of a sufficient supply of potatoes for 'boys.,
in now indeed very generally entertained.
It is now generally understood that the Lord
Lieutenant will leave Dublin for the north on Mon-
day the 9th of the ensuing month, for Cram Castle,
the rat of the Earl of Erne, when it is expected that
he will proceed to the Giant's Causeway, and to the
residence of the Marquis of Londonderry, near Glen-
arm. His arrival in Belfast is expected to take
plain on the 12th.
On Saturday the Lord Mayor presided at a meet-
ing of the depositors of the Cuffe-street Savings
Bank, when it was resolved that such parties as had
speculated on the wants of the poor depositors, by
purchasing their bank books at a low rate, should
only be paid in proportion to the sums which they had
thus given. The Lord Mayor said he knew an in-
stenos where a pays-book representing 601. was pur-
chased for 21. (Hear.) Now, he would give notice
to the purchaser of that piss-book that all he should
receive from the fend would be 11., with legal inte-
rest thereon, to be computed from the time of the per
(" Hear, hear," and cheers.) The balance
would be given to the original depositor, if alive, or
to his heirs, in the event of his having ceased to exist.
The Nenayk Guardian states that the sub-eLeriff
proceeded with a party of police, on the 16th instant,
to the lands of Clonoulty, in Tipperary, and evicted
forty persons fur non-payment of rent.
A barbarous weeder was committed last week in
Clare, the victim being the wife of a labouring man
of the most wretched class. During her husband's
absence in search of work she was brutally murdered
with a hatchet by a man named Quiebrian, whom she
recovered sufficient strength to identify in the pre-

AQUATICS.
UNITED CLUBS EIGHT-DARED SCRATCH

MATCH.
The great aquatic gathering under this title yesterday was
in every respect of a most gratifylog character, and was most
materially celeuisted to promote a friendly feeling amongst
aquatic gentlemen, and to restore the somewhat languid con-
dition of aquatics. The proposal had emanated from the
Ida Club, and was moat cordially responded to by several
other 'metro; olitan gentlemen's clubs, who were all anxious
to enter the lista ; and so many excellent crews, or so great
a number, has rarely or Seer been WOO upon the Thames.
The prises were really both elegant and valuable, e .listing
of nine cups electroplated, and the distance contested was
from Chiswick to Putney•bri ge.
Red I.—Meows. Prager, Mermen, Who:lack, Woodcock, Ilarsey,
1. Smith, blddell. Gregory (stroke), Creston (strerer).
Black r.—carers. Richter. Pantie, lt,ward, Revell, Lucas, Caper,
W. Ninon, Derry (stroke), Pathan (steered).
White.—Mears. Abbott,ll. Nixon, Rub, Tomlin, Coven, 7, Schultz,
Defowe, Layton (stroke), Darla (steerer).
Tellom.—Messes. Cheater Who, lre.nd, Ratchford, Wltbam,llen-
demon, Des, Aylmer, Adduce (stroke), Meson (steerer).
Three others stared, forming no less than seven eight-
oared crews. Mr. E. Searle was the starter, and Mr. Wit.
Eason, of the Thames Club, cfilciated as umpire in their
eight.
A fairer or pretier start, notwithstanding the great num-
ber of beats, has seldom been witnessed, but shortly after-
wards two boats in chore quarters on the Middlesex shore had
a slight foul. With the others it was an oar-and-oar race
down to Hammersmith bridge. Black hers began to show a
slight lead, followed by white and yellow, but three out of the
four overtopping the others. lied, who had been fourth in
the go off, had upon their nearing the Crab-tree rowed into
the second pier, and then challened the leading boat. A
spirited race followed, in which red got half their length in
advance, bat off the point below black put on a sharp spurt
and again 'hawed a alight point. The race was renewed
with the same spirit as before, when the winners again went
in advance, and came in first by a length. White rowed so
well as to shorten their distance astern materially towards the
finish.
