Extract of a letter from Dublin, dated Jone
" In the Court of Chancery, this day, the Arnie-
NEY•tigIISLAL goosed the Court nit behalf of
Stuart King, one of the Mainers, who had been
assigned Guardiari of Lord Glentwoith. that the
attachment granted against Mrs. Wittman. the
mother of Lady Gleutworth, do lame.
"1 he Loan CHANCULLOII then ordered Mrs.
Beatunads answer* to the iiderrogritones to he read.
In these Mrs. B. gave an account of the several (sir-
cusustaaces of tiii* iiiierosting transaction, nearly
similar to those already before the public. She
said, tout after Lord li.entwonii bait licen liner:Art'
from the :tire (under who h he was put as an officer,
for the purpose of preveming him from main ihg
her, dau4liter, the young mile accideirtally suet
at the house of a female friend, whose name
she thought in honour she ought not to dis-
Close ; that his Lordship represented to her, in
strong and glowing language, the atm% attach-
ineut that subsisted between Miss Edwards, now
Lady Glentworth, and himself, and adjured her to
consent to their taking a tnp to Scotland, to plate
tacit future happiness beyond the reach of ehaiice.
Mrs. 13. admitted, that, moved by his Lordship's
entreaties, amid reflecting that, from the rumour*
that were afloat, mud the publicity of the transac-
tion, her daughter.* character, as well Ls peace of
niind, were at stake, she zielded an unwilling and
almost passive consent; thistly, she threw herself
upon the humanity of the Lord Chancellor, who,
no doubt, is whatever order he might make, would
justly appreciate a woman's weakness and a inn-
ther's feelings.—His Lordship, after commenting
on Mrs. Beauman's iniscoudnet much at length,
ordered that she be committed.
"Mrs. Beaurnan, it is said, is gone to the Isle of
Nlats ; in which ease, it is apprehended, Mr. Beau-
man, olio undertook for her personal attendance, at
a moment's notice, and on whore petition she was
suffered to remain in her house during her exa-
mination, will fall under the animadvers ))))) of the
Court. A strong sensation prevails in the public
mind in favour of the lovers. It is strange that
the Earl of Limerick, the ardent Unionist of WOO,
should be so violent en Asti-waiimist upon the pre-
sent oecusithis when the match is, iu teary respect,
so suitable."

On Tuesday, a proceeding of divorce, or se-
paration from bed, board, and mutual coha-
bitation, instituted hy FRANCIS HIIIIIIIRiON. Esq.
of the Parish of St. Mary-la-bonne, against FRAN-
CRS ELEANOR LINN D::RsON. his wife,
. by reason of
adultery committed with WILLIAM LI1111.•51, Esq.
was brought in the Bi‘hop of LONDONne Court.
Doctors Commons.—On behalf of the Lady it
was contended, that there was no one fact proved,
neither the marriage, the identity of the person, nor
the alleged fact eisdnltery. The Court (Sir WIL-
LIAM SCOTT), without proceeding further in the
cause, dismissed it on account of the failure of proof.
Mr. Ilan Denson failed in a similar attempt some
years since, when a Barouet was charged with be-
ing the seducer.
On 3losiday evening a wager of twenty guineas
was decided by setting off three pigeons, belonging
to a young IMP named MILSON. in the Borough,
' who undertook, for the above MM, that they should
Ay the distance of thirty-five miles in one hour.—
They were *et loose at live o'clock, five miles be-
yond Tunbridge Wells, and arrived at the residence
of their owner seven minutes within the time al-
lowed.
Lord ALTAVIAT ran against time, on Monday
imoruina. ow' the Eil4ware Bond. The bet was that
he could not run a mile in six minutes; hut he per-
formed it in 4lseconds less than the given time.
Lord F. yin
was umpire. Considerable
sums were won and lost ; the original bet WAS 54)
guineas, with ARCIAURSHL/LPPSAIII:, Erg.

On Saturday evening. at a quarter past 5 o'clock,
the Caledonia, of 120 guns, was launched from our
Yard. She went off in tine style, amidst the most
numerous and splendid company that ever graced
a bight .o gratifying. The number of spectators
from the Dock-yard, Mount Win, the Point,
Mount Ei-bgecumbe, and all the various vessels in
[laminae, and boats to the amount of 1300, may
be computed at more than 100,000 people. Since
the town of Dock, which took its name from being
near to Plymouth (two distinct miles) we never
experienced so many strangers iu it. She went
off in a gradual, beautiful style, cud appeared,
when on the water, a prodigious floating timer.
in one hour and a half she was docked,. and will
be ready to go out in a few days.
