MARINE HOTEL, NEW BRIGHTON. —We have
(rived from the proprietor of this. establishment sundry
reetinients bearing highly respectable signatures, in
Ife,lreoce to the case that came before the Police Court on
B,l"nY, and a report of which appeared in our paper of
Cur day, which tend to show that he has been unjustly
reated:
to

THE its present position.
DREADNOUGHT.—We have often recorded the
Nii\fsentlerful. rapid voyages made by this ship, to and from
out,
and have again to state that in her last voyage
in-. 2 19 the face of great difficulties, she made the passage
twenty days. We understand several vessels that left
long before her, and at the same time, did not arrive out
Under from twenty to thirty days after she had been safe
at New York. All passengers well.
THE RUMOUR OF BODIES BEING WASHED ASHORE.—
Letters from Galway state that the rumour of a mast,
supposed of a large vessel, with five bodies lashed to it,
had been driven on the Connamara coast, is entirely
Without foundation. The report was first published in
Lloyd's List, about ten days ago ; and afterwards in the
;Slapping Gazette. Neither had there been pieces of
boxes, trunks, &c. &c., been washed ashore on the coast.

Astley's famed Amphitheatre can surpass the splendours
and varieties of the Circus in Dale-street. —The manner
141,3_ 'which the comfort of the spectators is provided for in
VP arrangements of the house, deserves' no less credit
than the spirit with -which their -amusement and delight
are aroused and satisfied in the entertainments of every
