On Monday last a Special General Meeting of the sub-
scribers to the Parish Charity School of St. Marylebone was
held at the School-house, when, we regret to say, it ap-
peared that the annual income is less than the necessary
annual expenditure by 7501. We are at a loss to conceive
how this magnificent parish, containing 120,000 inhabi-
tants, should make it difficult to maintain and educate IZ.)
poor children ; patronized, as the school is, by the Bishop
of London, the four Rectors, several of the Nobility, and
by the great landlitildent; MK Portman and Col. Eyre.'"
Mason ERADE.—The indefatigable Charles Wright en-
tertained the town last night with another of those enter-
tainments, which have rendered the Argyll Room so de-
servedly popular, and which was announced as the last
masquerade for the season. It was extremely well attend-
ed, which may be ascribed in some measure to the circum-
stance that both the great theatres were closed, as well as
many other place of public amusement. There were a
great number of characters present, but none that can be
referred to as distinguishable for novelty. The spirit of
fun and frolic, however, presided throughout the night,
and was unchecked by any of those disagreeable occur-
rence which have too frequently detracted from the enjoy-
ment of persons who visit such entertainments for the sole
purpose of passing an evening in the indulgence of inno-
cent mirth. Notwithstanding the heat of the weather,
(lancing was the order of the night, and at an advanced
hour this morning we left a large proportion of the com-
pany engaged in stepping through the mazy circles of the
waltz, or the more graceful, but not less animated atti-
tudes of the light quadrille.
A considerable number of English workmen, who had
gone to France in search of work, have arrived at Bou-
logne Sur Aler lately, on their way home, in great distress.
To prevent a recurrence of these unhappy emigrations,
the Treasurer of the fund raised at Boulogne for the
relief of the distressed English, has given notice that in
future assistance will be afforded only in cases of local
distress.

DREADFUL FIRE AT BOONOR.—Capt. Clarke, com-
manding Sir Godfrey Webser's yacht, ordered a dinner at
the Royal Hotel, Bognor, for 175 persons, on their return
from polling at Chichester. About the middle of the day,
in conicquence of the preparations for the dinner, one of
.the flues in the scullery, caught fire, which commun. cated
Ito the wbole building, and from thence to the adjacent
cottages, between twenty and thirty of which were de-
stined. ,We are happy.to hear that no lives were lost.
Yesterday afternoov, between three and four o'clock,
a most tremendous hailstorm visited the town of St. Al-
bnsthree inches in circumference, fell,
and broke Piecesrokete windows ice,
of many houses. One person has
sustained a loss to the amount, it is ::aid, of 1001. by this
occurrence. The windows of the New Inn, which was
opened two or three days ago on the New Cut, were all
molesi less broken. The corn in the neighbourhood was
beaten down, and considerable damage was done to the
gardens. A good deal of rain fell several miles on each
side of St. Alban's, but there was no hail except at that
place.
ALDERSGATE Waan.—Yesterday being the day ap-
pointed for the election of an Alderman for the Ward of
Aldersgate, in the room of the late Mr. Alderman Cox, a
special Court was held at the Dispensary, Altlersgate-
street ; anti Sir Peter Laurie having been proposed by Mr.
Veto, and seconded by Mr. John Rolls, was declared una•
nimously elected.
FUNERAL. OF Mr.. ALDERMAN CO:C.—The remains of
the late Mr. Alderman Cox were yesterday consigned to the family
vault in St. Botolph's Church, Aldersgate-street. The funeral
was perfectly neat, and conducted throughout without any nstenta.
tion. The hearse, containing the body, left Hart.sts'et, Blooms-
bury, about one o'clock, followed by two mourning coaches, con.
taming the son, nephew, and other relatives of the deceased. The
interior of the church, the galleries, pulpit, and altar-piece, were
hung with black crape. Previous to the funeral service being
read, Miss Elect, the organist of St. Botolph's, Bishopsgate, per-
formed the " Dead March in Saul." in a at) lc that reflected great
credit upon 4ier. It had it powerful effect upon the congregation,
which was exceedingly numerous. The following inscription was
placed on the coffin, which was a plain black one.—" Robert Al-
bion Cox, Esq. only surviving son of tile late Will Om and Martha
Cox, of Pidillethrenthyde, in the county of Dorset. Sheriff of
Dorset, Condon, and Middlesex in the year 1801. One of his
Majesty's Commissioners' for the adjostment of the' Spanish
Claims. Born March 31,1785. Died June 20,1::26...
The first division, consisting of 400 of the boys of the
Royal Military Asylum at Chelsea (by permission of the Duke of
York) visited Marshall's Periatrephic Panoraniv of the Battle of
Algiers. They appeared highly delighted, and testified their ap-
probation by repeated shouts of applause. The innvemerts of the
Panorama were accompanied by appropriate martial music from
their mimic band, consisting of 35 boys under twelve years of age,
which increased the effect to a very great degree. We were glad
to sec the phicc set apart for the public most respectably and nume-
rously attended. The last division march to the Panorama on
Thursday, the 28th inst.

" PARA, MAY 10.
" We are here In a great deal of trouble, owing to a revolution
that broke out at Cameta, where the authorities have declared
themselves against the Imperial G ,vemment. The Europeans re.
sident there did their bent for the purpose of putting down the re-
volution, but they were unfortuna.ely few, and eviry one of them
was assassinated ! When these news anise(' lure, troops were im-

either killed or taken prisoners. Another expedition is preparing.
hot I fear very much that the bad success of the first will prevent
the second fro.n arriving at its destination. The town is, In conse-
quence of this, in great confusion, and the principal me•cliants
are preparing to quit this place for Lisbon, Oporto, France, and
England. and sonic for the United States. Indeed, the Portuguese
ate not safe here, because (though it does not appear so for the
present) it is from here that every thing is as angel ; and no one
can know how this will end, particularly if Colombia
_gives the
least countenance to the parties embarked in this affair. There are
good reasons to believe that mimetic% have ben sent here for the
above purpose. People in the country think that a Republic is the
moat perfect Government, and even those who hardly know how to
write their names, consider themselves fit to become Presidents of
the Republic ! Unless I see a very material alteration here in the
course of a month, I shall not remain."
