A CONJUROR.

Last month died, in the Parish of Ilhuabon, in
Wales, at an adva-nced. age, Jot :Roberts, better
known by the appellation of Mochy7F-y-Hunt, or Pig of
the Brook. Mochyn was conjuror and fortune-teller
to a great part of the Principality, and hisfame ex-
tended far into Cheshire and Shropshire. He pro-
fessed to have attained his science in Egypt, though'
he,was scarcely ever beyond his parish bounds. He
was continually resorted to for the recovery of stray-
ed linen, poultry, hatchets, and asses.; even his
name served to make rogues observe the rules of
honesty. When he could not mark out infallibly
the offender, he still was able to aftlid him with any
infirmity or disease the injurecl party should like :
agues, rheumatism, and St. Vitus's dance, were en-
tirely at his corninand, and dealt out by him in the
most. liberal manner. In fortune-telling he no less
excelled : no swain or maiden ever applied in rain--
he could.not only create love in the human breast,
but also chill it with aversion and disdain. For these
purposes he gave, or rather sold, charms, couched
in dark and hieroglyphic charaCters, which were also
in much reuqest to insure success in any enterprize
—a hat-race or a cockfight. Such was the Pig of
the Brook. Ropes will rejoice in his death, whilst
the credulous and superstitious will lament it, until
plate is supplied by some one equally gifted and
imposing.

CAUTION TO INSURERS.

Ist. • " Vessels are often insured for much more
than they are worth.. The owner has an opportu-
nity of sending them to sea, and getting rid of them.
Hence the lives of ourfelloW creatures are wanton-
ly and cruelly exposed to danger.
, • •
2d. " The Vessels are often not half-manned,
nor provided with proper materials for safe condu&,
independently of their own crazy condition. The
commercial speculators at Lloyd's, Newcastle, HIM,
and Whitby, with all their knowletge, vigilance,
.and caution, arc by no means sufficiently aware of
those criminal artifices,"

Honnin MURDER.—Yesterday evening an Inqui-
sition was held at the sign of the Acorn, at Bother-
hithe, before CHARLES JEmmErr,' Esq. Coroner for
the County of Surrey, on the body of Capt. Jotrtr
CARR, who was on Sunday morning last found life-
less on the .deck.—The evidence that came before.
the Coronet went to the point that Captain JOHN
CARR was Master of the Providence Trader, of
and from' Stettin, in Norway--that the Vessel brought •
home a cargo of StaveS, and for some reason not im-
mediately appearing, the Vessel, was ordered into
Greenland Dock. On Saturday night she warped.-
The Captain and all the crew on board, were chiefly'
Norwegians. On Sunday morning the Dock Of-
ficers went on board, and found the Captain lifeless on
the deck, and all the crew absconded. On e-
amination, it appeared that his body Was beat as it
were to a mummy, from the top of his head,,to his
feet, to appear black, and nearly in a state of morti-
fication, This being distinctly proved, and the Sur-
geon stating, that the beating was the cause of his
death, a Verdia was taken Murder
against a , Person or Persons ynknown.—Efforts are
making for their apprehension, but as yet 'without
effeet.

Accordingly, as was prediaed, and more and more
to shevi the. erroneous speculation of those . who
thought the contrary, Lottery Tickets exper;;snced
on Thursday another advance in- pr)ce. Before
twelve o'clock at night,, to which hour the•A& of
'Parliament allows adventurers to purchase chances,
it being the last day prior to the drawing, a .fur-
thez rise on them may take place. common policy
and prudence, therefore, loudly call on adventurers
not to dela,y.a single moment longer in possessing
Tickets or Shares in one of the most- interestii4g
Schemes that ever invited•their embrace.

The utikity of this Establishment is evinced by the

lately
.at Holebottom, Oldham collision of
winds, commonly called a whirlwind, raised a nap-
kin from the earl h so inzli as to Le scarcely visible.
When. at its highest-elevation .(the day being very
serene)..it appeared like a very small bird, or rather
a lucid: point. During' its ascension it was, some--
times rolled up, and sometimes expanded, and
df-
,forded matter. of admiration to numerous. assem-
blage otspe6tators, who beheld it thus elevated. for
48 minutes, or upwards. At length, -after being
suspended nearly over the place from whence it took.
its ascent during the aforesaid space of time, it _mov-
ed gradually out of sight, in a d,iredion nearly N. W.
and has never since been heard of.

. .
Extra& of a Letter, dated Camp Kurrinkoer, De-
cember 25, 1805 In my last I informed you,
that our detachment had marched towards Mulke-
pore, which we reached on the 20th instant, just in
time to prevent its being plundered by the Pendaries.
They are said to be about 3000 strong, commanded
by SOOPKARUM, a Sirdar, formerly in HOLXAR'S ser-
vice: They bad received intelligence of our having
marched, and had fallen back ; on which Colonel
WALLAcB immediately ordered the 2d Regiment of
Native Cavalry, commanded by Capt. SimrsoN, and
the 2d "Battalion of the 7th Regiment of Madras
.Native Infantry (after a halt of a few hotirs) to
pursue them.
" On the evening; of the 22c1, after a fatiguing march

Of 20 miles, our (:Tit,alry foriunately got sight of the
Enemy, consisting of 1200 horse, and four guns.
At first,, they appeared determined to stand the
charge ; but when our Cavalry had advanced within
300 yards of their front, they broke and fled. Mir-
; ing a put suit of six.'or seven miles,. we captured their
• 'guns, and the principal part of their baggage ; and
amongst the latter were -six standards. The loss of
the Enemy, in killed and wounded, could not be
ascertained, but it must have been considerable! On
our' side the loss has been'trifiing, only a few troopers
wounded. 'The InfantrY were left it), the 'r& htit
.they are, notwithstanding, entitled to a consAeraWe
share of applause' for their extraordinary exertions
in keeping up' in a march of near 20 miles.".

7i4E GUARDS AT DEAL.

- DEAL, JULY 9.—Yesterday arrived at this place
his Royal Highness' the DUKE of GLOUCESTER, to
review the Third Guards, of •which he is Colonel.
The Regiment were drawn up on Freedown for his
rece ion, and went tbrOugh various evolutions with
the greatest steadiness, quickness,. and 'precision,
Mulct 'the command of that eminent and highly
dislingAished Officer, the Hon. Colonel Storrottb-.
At the conclusion his Royal Highness made an un-
eotimion/v neat and app;‘ipriate speech, observing
that, mutli as heliad heard, and had been led-to ex-
pea, from a Corps whose services had gained them
such high credit, yet Their appearance and discipline,
throughout the Manceuvres of this day, far surpassed
even.the high idea he had funned of them, and add-
ed-to the pride he had felt, and had previously ex-
pressed, on being appointed by Fla MAns-ty to the
command of so distinguished a Corps. .
• This flattering compliment was repeated to the
Battalion by their Commander, Colonel SturToaD,
whose countenance exhibited the most lively emo-
tions of joy during this interesting scene. After the
.uview, his Ro-al Highness visited Dover, and re.
turned to dine with the mess of his Regiment, where
his afteibility spread hilarity through the company;
Which, besides the Officers of the Corps, consisted
of Lords KEITH and AYLMER, Sir GEORGE tun-
.t.ow, Admiral HOLLowAT, Genetals FiNCn,
&c. &c. _ _

At nine o'clock the party adjourned to . Col. Dim,
RYNIPLE'S,: at Walmer House, where the shrubbery
and gardens were beautifully illuminated by, trans-
parencies, consisting of appropriate devices, which
wereexecuted under thedire6lion of Ca pt.l3 R A DDY
whose accomplishments in those elegant arts,are al-
ready so well known. Mrs. DALRYMPLE, the fair
hostess, supported by the Officers' Ladies belonging
to the Brigade, were unremitting in their attention
-to her Illustrious Guest, who seemed perfeetly-en-
tranced by the charms .of wit and beauty which
assailed him. At twelve o'clock above one hundred
persons sat down to a splendid Supper, laid out in
rwo rooms, consisting of every delicacy of the season,
in .the greatest profusion. The wines Were Cham-
paigne, Burgundy, and Hock, which were well iced
and excellent. During the supper the Band played
several charming airs.
His Royal Highness sat till a late hour, and ex-
pressed hipsell, on,retiring, in the most rapturous
terms of the elegance and hospitality of the eveni-

MP E A C tiME NT.

.N.7ROIVAL rose, and adverted to the notice
which he had given some -tulle ago,' of,his intention
to'submit a Motion to the House relative to the
praaice of thanking Managers of Impeachments
before the Lords had given their decision. The ob-.
jest of his rising at present was to remove the im-
pression, if any such-existed, of •his having aban-
cloned that intention. He had by no means
abandoned it ; but from considerations, of which
the House, he hoped, would perCeive. the propriety,
he had dropped any design of bringing tbrward.the
subje& this Session : he wished- that every feeling
conneaed with any particular Inipeachmene should
have no place in the consideration ; and was rather
afraid that if he had brought it forward this ,Ses-
sion, even the shortness of the time that must have
intervened between that and the lace Impeachment
might have prevented the matter from being dis-
cussed with that impartiality which was desirable.
.He now, therefore, gave notice, that it was his inten-
tion to bring the subjea before the House in- the next
Session.
CROWN ESTATES IN WESTMINSTER.

Mr. SHERIDAN expressed his hope that the,
House would reeollea, that, when he had given no-
tice to•make a Motion relative to the Crown Estates
in Westminster, with a view to the improvement
Of the Capital, that Motion was only, conditional,
as he was then aware that others, whose judgment
he was disposed to rely on, Might prefer another, mode
for accomplishing his object. He had now the sa-
tisfaelion to state, that his Colleagues in Office,
especially the Noble Baron at'the Head of the Trea-
sury, and his Right Honourable Friend (Mr, Fox);
who had been prevented by indispBsitiOn from at-
tending here for some time, 'were anxious to for-
ward the purpose which he had in view 5- and they
having chose another mode, .which he himself
thought preferable, he begged leave to wave his
Motion.

A Person from the Excise Office presented an
Account 'of the Prosecutions for Violations 'of the

THE FIGHT.

ist Round.. The combatants sparred for some time, and
that of Wasdell's was truly aukward ; he madea short auk-
ward hit, and closed, when O'Donnell knocked him down
cleanly —3 to„1 on the favourite.

ad., Wasdell again made play aukwardly; his opponent
dropped him again easily.--s to t.•
3d. By this time Wasikll exhibited marks of his opponent's
skill about the head ; he -made a round aukward attempt to
hit ; O'Donnell stopped hint, and again hit him off, his legs,
and he sat on the grass as ifgreatly embarrassed.--No bating.
4th. Whilst sparring, Wasdell made an attempt to seize
his opponent by his right hand; O'Dcnnell hit him, and left
his marks on the head and body; when he tell.
sth. The combatants closed irregularly ; O'Donnell, af-
ter punishing him severely .undernaath, dropt him again..;.,
2o WI.

6th. O'Donnell hit his opponent a severe blow hi the face,
through his guard ;. they closed, and O'Donnell hit Wm right
and left off his legs.
7111.. O'Donnell went in and hit his opponent in the body t,
they closed, and disengaged themselves, when asdell again
attempted to seize his opponent's hand ; he was rewarded
with a hit, which evidently decided all hopes for hirri •
• Bth. In this round- O'Donnell did as he thought proper ;
went to his man in good humour, and hit hint three successive
hard bloWs in the face, which dropped hint.'
9th. •Wasdell "faced his man for the last time; O'Donnell
hit him two hard blows, which finished one of the easiest
conquests ever witnessed, for O'Donnell had not even the
slightest impression of a hit about him. •

Those who backed Wasdell have been convinced
of the folly of matching an unskilful Man against
such a man as O'Donnell. Wasdell, •buwever,
proved himself' a ,complete novice in every sense of
tin word ; he was ignorant of the'know:edge .of
boxing altogether ; .and to speak fairly of him, he is
the worst that ever-attempted even a street tight.
O'Donnell was seconded by Gully and Ryan, and
Wasdell by his brother and Rhodes.

A second- battle was fought between 'a Bristol
Butcher and a man of the name of Coomb. This -
contest lasted upwards of an hour, and 'it was decided
in favour of Coombs, after a - good deal of hard ;
fighting. The Butcher Nbas known, amongst the
gemmen of the fist, to be a game,one, and he proved
himself so ; he,lowever, used his right hand en-
tirely at the body; which, if it -had-be&ri directed at
the head, would have insured him viaory. His op-
ponent was a' good getter away, and never hit until
within his distance, When his blows told. • -

Two-other battle's were .fought for subscription
purses, but- the• matches were unequal, and conse-
quently the contests were not amusing, but tiresome.
The diVersions of the day closed with a foot-race
at Kilburn: Grinle)i, the swift-footed boot-closer,
run a man 100 yards. for five guineas, and gave him
fifteen.—Grinley lost by about two. yards, having
slipped during' the
,race. , .
