EXTRAORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCE.

A• extraordinary circumstance occurred in the forenoon
of Thursday seonight, at Messrs. Russell and Co.'s wag.
too-office, in Exeter, which excited considerable alarm
iu the neighbourhood. Some chat■ belonging to the
manager of the Exeter t►eatre were left there to be for-
warded to Weymouth, preparatory to which their weight
was about to be ascertained, &media' to the usual prac-
tice. The warebonseinso who was superinteoding the
weighing of one of the citrate suddenly observed a smoke
issue from it, and bad scarcely time to inform his employers
of the ci►cnmetsnce, when an explosion, accompanied with •
bis•iog noise, like that of a wheel.roetet, took place militia,
which forced open one side of the chest. This oressionici
considerable alarm, and to guard agsinet any latent danger,
the chest was removed into the s ; bat so much was the
rumour spread, and so magnified by repetition, that two

fre.engines were promptly brought to the premiers. The
• chest, on being opened, was fogad to rounds theatrical
Messes, and a preparation for making what is tensted•
" Greek fire," which by friction, or some other cause, bad
token Are, and entirely destroyed the other contents of
the chest, which were of eensidersble value. This wras
the extent of the accident; but it is extremely feriae's..
that ii occurred in the daytime, when persons were ea the
epot ; bad it happened at night, or on the road to its destina-
tion, the event might have bees very serious.

Friday being the anniversary of the fatal 16th of
August, there were several assemblages of people
on Si. Peter's-field, in commemoration of the dread-
ful events of that day. In the evening there was a
procession from the Union Rooms to the field,
where a hymn suitable to the occasion was sung;
after which the procession returned to the Union
Rooms. A great number of persons were collected
to witness the ceremony.—(Mmeh ester (uardimg.)
We gave last week an account of a desperate
gang of horse-stealers who have lately infested the

murdered two labouring tnen. The gang after
leaving Surrey repaired to Enfield, where they stole
' a Wood mare belonging to Lord CADOGAN, and
another the property of another gentleman. Three
of the gang have been taken at Aylesbury. The
captain is a notorious character, uud lately returned
from transportation.

The annual examinations at this excellent insti•
tution took plat e yesterday se'nnight. The ex-
aminations were attended by his Grace the Duke
of Leinster, one of the first in worth, and as he is
the first in rank of the Irish Nobility, whose pa-
tronage of the liberal institutions of his country,
whose warm and well-uttested love of Ireland ire
not less conspicuous than his high lineage and
dignity of station in society. There were oleo pre.
sent the Most Rev. Dr. Troy, the Most Rev. Mr.
Murray, Rev. Mr. Kennedy, F.T.C.D., Rev. Dr.
Denvie, Professor of Natural Philosophy, Ally-
nom h ; Colonel Fitzgerald, Colonel Bagot, Mr.
Henry, Mr. William Murphy, &J.. &e. The exa-
minations comprised elution the whole range of the
Gteek and Roman Classics, and an extensive
Him of Italian and French literature, &c. Air.
Kennedy, in the course of the evening, took occa-
sion to express " the pleasure he experienced in CM
acquaintance with a body which he regarded as a
valuable and important ally to Trinity College in the
diffusion of liberal end extensiv. education." The
compo4tions, which were in the Greek, Latin,
French, end English languages, were highly sp.
proved of. A Greek oration, " Ypsilunti's Address
to she Greeks." was of peculiar excellence. We
su " l'he /address of Erin to her absent sons."
It evinces a sedulous and well-culiivated taste in
the youthful compoarr—it breaths a genuine Irish
feeling that can never be too deeply impressed on
the minds oldie rising gentry of Ireland, and we are
not a little induced to transcribe it in consideration
of the nature and classical compliment with which

FATAL DUEL IN FRANCE.

A letter in'the Journal des Debate, dated Bagnires, July
29, states as fullows:—'a A deplorable event lola just takes
plate in this town. The unfortunate young Pinae was in-
teired this day, having been killed in a duel with an Engli►h•
man. The affair did uut seise from any personal quarrel. The
Englishman being io the reading-room of Frescati, hap-
pened to write on the margin of ■ pamphlet respecting the
battle of Tutilousr—` that every thing in it was fibs; that
lord Wellington had gained a complete victory; and that our
(the French) army was indebted to his generosity fur not
havieg been put to the sword.' M. row, a young offirer,
not tu actual service, who was first made acquainted with
this circumstance, called on him to account fur hawing writ-
ten these words. The Authorities did all they could to pre-
vent the duel; but their precautions became useless; ■nd
Pinar., baying received a ball in his belly, died some bouts
afterwards."

' We observed yesterday that the discotsion in the

Meetly points of, considerable interest. The pres-
sure. of miter prevented at then from paying such
attention to them as their importance merited.
The early renewal of the Agricultural Com-
mittee, notwithstanding the very unsatisfartory cha-
racter of the former Report, is a circumstance from
which the agriculturists may draw an inference fa-
vourable to their. interests. It is eminently gratify-
ing to persons labouring under any severe affliction
to wittier' in others it dtep and sincere sympathy
in their.sufferinr,s. This gratification the farmers
molt sow feel in a vety large degree, for the Go-
verment and Legislature of the country have
sheen the utmost auziety to investigate seriously
the causes of their present destrerser, and to afford
every means of relief which prudence and even
zeal could suggest. The Committee now appoint-
ed camellia the names of men in the House of
Commons who are eminently distinguished either
by the fervency of their zeal in the service of. the
agriculturists, or whore minds have been beat die.
