DROWNING.

Yesterday evening an inquisition was taken at Ilse Barley
Mow, Mutant street, Grosvenor-square, before Mr. Higgs,
Coroner, on the body of George Bernard, a young man
about 24 years of age, who was drowned un Sunday morning
in the Serpentine River, in Hyde-perk.
Verdict—" Accidentally Drowned"

In consequence of en official intimation from
Lord SIDMOUTH, the Secretary or State for the
Home Department, Earl Furzwit.LiAm, the Lord
Lieutenant of this Riding, left Milton Abbey in
the early part of the present week, end has arrived
at his seat in Yorkshire. A report to this effect
prevailed some weeks ago, which was it that time
premature. The political meetings lately held in
this and other manufacturing districts, to which the
PRINCE REGENT alludes in his Speech from the
Throne on the prorogation of Parliament, is the
reason assigned for his Lordship's presetit visit to
his Lieutenancy.—(Leeds Mercury.)
The Leeds Reform Meeting, announced for yes-
terday (Monday), was held on linoslet Moor, at
twelve o'clock. The intention of the movers of this
business was to have occupied the yard of the Co-
loured Cloth-hall ; but on application to the
trustees, they declined to suffer their premises to
he appropriated to that use—not from any hostility
to the cause of Reform; for we believe they all
see and feel that some reform is necessary, but
from a disinclination to prejudice any applica-
tion they may have to make to Parliament,
by seeming to give countenance to the violent
proceedings that have distinguished some of these
Meetings. We do not hear that any Reformer of
note is expetted. sir CHARLES WOLEaLEY was,
we believe, applied to; but the same melancholy
cause which prevented the newly-elected Member
for Birmingham from appearing among his con-
stituents, will prevent his invitation to Leeds being
accepted. Some persons have expressed alarm for
the tranquillity of 'the town and neighbourhood
on the day of Meeting; but we conceive that these
fears are entirely groundless. The proceedings of
the Yorkshire Reformers have, since the first
Meeting on Humilet-Moor, assumed • comparn-
tively moderate tone, and in those places in Lanca-
shire where the most violent langsage has been held,
the behaviour of the populace has been peaceable
and orderly. We hail these symptoms of return-
ing good sense with sincere pleasure; and we hope
the report that the LORD LIEUTENANT of the West-
Riding will have to make to his Goiernment, will
amount but to this—" That there is a 4reat deal of
' suffering, and its never-failing concomitant, much
dissatisfaction ; but that there is no collecting of
arms or pikes in this Riding; and that the laws of
the country, when duly administered, seem fully
equal to the preservation of the public prate."—
