Hampton races take place to-morrow and two following

Cuatous RAen.---On Wednesday last a match came off at
Hull between Jack Holdsworth, known as " Jack the running
dustman," and a hog 1;g, aged eight months, belonging to
Mr. Purdon. The pig had been in training for some weeks.
The match was to run from the Toll-bar to Ocean-place, a
distance of one mile. The bets were in favour of piggy. A
good start was made, and the pig got the advantage for the
first 150 yards, but being frightened at the great concourse of
people which lined the route, he broke the line and attempted
to escape. Jack won the race, having performed the distance
in five minutes and three quarters. The pig during the train-
ing had repeatedly performed the distance in five minutes and
a half. Much money changed hands on this occasion, the
bets being generally in favour of the pig.

SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.

NOTICE TO MARINERS.

The following communications from the Admiralty were re-
ceived at Lloyd's this day, June 12, 1837:
" Lighthouse of Hammaren. B Island.—lnforma-
tion has been received by his Majesty's Government that the
light hitherto produced by a coal fire in the lighthouse of Ham-
maren, on the north point of the island of Bornholm, is about
to be replaced by a fixed light from lamps. The necessary
alterations arc to be commenced this month, but during their
progress lamps will be lighted every night on the north point
of the said island, for the guidance of shipping.
" Hydrographic Office, Admiralty, June 2, 1837."

Light of La Garouppe, or Antibes, Department of La \Tar,
on the South Coast of France.—(l?cceived from the French
Government. )—Mariners are hereby informed that, from the
Ist July next, a fixed light will be shown every night from
the tower recently constructed on the peninsula of La Ga-
rouppe, a mile and a half to the southward of the port of An-
tibes, and near the chapel of Notre Dame de la Garde, in lat.
43. 33. 51. N., and long. 7. 8. 4. E. of Greenwich. The
light will be elevated 62 English feet above the ground, and
332 feet above the level of the sea, and will be visible in fine
weather at the distance of seven leagues. In approaching
Antibes from the eastward mariners will see the fixed light of
Villa Franche, which stands on Point Malo, and also the inter-
mitting light at the entrance of the port of Antibes, at the
same time as they see the fixed light of La Garouppe; but
this last-mentioned light alone wiil be seen by mariners ap-
proaching from the southward or south-westward until they
have rounded the peninsula.

" Royal Swedish Norwegian Consulate, Great St. Helen's

June 12, 1837.

" Sir—A Norwegian sloop, called the Hannah Maria, hav-
ing suspiciously been carried away from Manhahl, in Norway,
you will much oblige me by giving every publicity to the en-
closed letter from the owner, Mr. P. C. Olsen, in the hope
that the same may lead to a discovery in this country ; the
more so, as the vessel was not provided with requisite ship do-
cuments, and may, therefore, be detained by the Swedish and
Norwegian Vice-Consul,
I remain, Sir, your obedieiat servant,
" CHARLES TOTTIE.
" To W. Dobson, Esq., Secretary, Lloyd's.
" TRANSLATED FROM THE NORWEGIAN LANGUAGE.

" Farshund (Norway), May 24, 183 7.
" A singular occurrence has lately happened to me. A
short time since I purchased by auction at Marrdahl the sloop
Hannah Maria, which was sold for debt. On my personal ar-
rival at Mandahl yesterday to receive the vessel the former
owner, Erickson Christian, with two men, had taken away the
vessel, and proceeded to sea without its being known where
he is gone. It is probable that he may arrive at some place
in England ; and under this impression I have to request that
you will immediately on receipt of this cause the circumstance
to be announced in the public papers, and request at the same
time that you will adopt every possible measure for the disco-
very of the said Christian Erickson, and, if found, to cause
him to be detained on my account, and place an embargo on
the vessel. The said Erickson is not a shipmaster or mariner.
The last commander of the vessel was a person of the name
of Strand. It is therefore possible the thief may assume this
name, or he may, probably, have some papers on board which
he might make use of. The sloop is of the burthen of 24
lasts, nearly new, and built of fir. If you can trace or discover
this robber I would be greatly obliged, and will thankfully re-
pay you all the expenses.—l remain, &c.,
(Signed) " P. C. OLSEN.'"

PAUPER RIOT.—On Saturday morning last, in
consequence of its being expected that one of the relieving
officers belonging to the Gainsborough Union would be at
Butterw ick, by the steam packet, a party mustered at an early
hour, rattling old pans, blowing beasts' horns, and making
other discordant noises. This was the means of drawing to-
gether a large assemblage of people, whose intention it was,
on the arrival of the packet, to mob the officer and to throw
him into the Trent, being determined not to have him among
them. Fortunately, however, on the arrival of the packet, it
was found that he had landed at Ferry, a few miles distant.
Two constables were in attendance from Belton, to keep the
peace, who, as soon as they interfered, were knocked down by
the mob, and much hurt, one of them, Mr. Platts, senior,
having his coat nearly torn in pieces. They then thought it
prudent not to interfere further, as the rioters threatened to
break the windows of any person who attempted to encourage
and assist the relieving officer in the execution of his duty, and
otherwise destroy their property ; and also to re-assemble and
release any one who might be taken into custody, vowing ven-
geance against the officer and the new Poor-law Bill.--Don-
caster Gazette.

Saturday was the anniversary of the commencement
of the building new London Bridge, in 1824.
The rustic sport of prison-bars was once a Royal
amusement. King Edv.ard VI. in his Diary tells us, that on
the 31st of March, Dil9, he offered " a challenge that he and
sixteen gentlemen of his chamber would run at base and run
at the ring, with any seventeen of the Court."

Lord DENMAN delivered the judgment of the Court in
this case. This was an action to try whether a rate im-
posed by the Commissioners of Sewers could be im-
posed upon a whole township, leaving the inhabitants them-
selves to settle their respective proportions, or whether the
Commissioners were not bound in the first instance to assess
according to the value of the lands and tenements held by
each occupier. The chief, indeed the almost only, autho-
rity for saying that the rate could be levied in that way on
the whole township was to be found in " Callis on Sewers,"
but there were many other authorities of greater weight.
However• convenient the Court might deem the practice
which had been adopted in this case, it was impossible for
the Court to say that it was the most lawful course ; and as
the objection had been taken the Court must recognise it,
and must give judgment for the plaintiff.
Judgment for the plaintiff accordingly.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MARLBORO UGH-STREET.

Mrs. Margaret Miller came before Mr. CONANT and
Mr. HALL, to charge one Miss Anna Adeliza Read with
having "shook and shoved her" last Tuesday.
The charge appeared the more marvellous on taking the
disparity in the sizes of the two parties into consideration,
the complainant presenting the bodily rotundity of " three
single ladies rolled into one," while the delicate -features, the
slim waist, and petite proportions of the defendant seemed
to put the masculine achievements she was accused of quite
out of the question.
The defendant was accompanied by a well-dressed, red-
haired personage, who at first figured as a sort of defendant,
but afterwards discharged the office of amicus curia.
The fat complainant, with considerable warmth, averred
that, while in her bed-room habiliments on Tuesday night,
the defendant suddenly burst in, blew out the candle, and
gave her a shove that tumbled her unceremoniously over a
piece of bed-room crockery. However (said the com-
plainant) I don't care a pin for the assault. I want your
Worships to bind her over to leave my place, for I assure
you the house I keep is of the most respectable description.
Respectable ! said Miss Anna Adeliza (tossing her head
contemptuously)—l live in the house, and can assure you
its any thing but respectable.
Here the defendant entered into certain particulars, which
settled the matter conclusively.

Its false, and PH bring ,twenty gentlemen who use my
house to prove it, retorted the complainant. I'm a lone
weak widow woman ; but for all that, thank goodness—
doubling a fist somewhat smaller than the knuckle of an ox
—I can protect myself.
Miss Anna—You know, Mrs. Miller, there would not
have happened anything unpleasant if you had net scanda-
lously abused me to this gentleman—pointing to her red-
haired companion.
Mr. CONANT—Pray, who is that gentleman ? Miss
Anna—That gentleman. Oh ! he's a visitor—that is, a
sort of acquaintance—a kind of particular friend.
Mrs. Miller—Yes, your Worship, 3ou may guess what
he is, when I tell you he has lodged with that lady in my
house for a month at least. All this bother only happened
out of a bit of nonsense.
Miss Anna—Nonsense ! no such thing ; nobody could
have put up with it, I'm sure.
Mr. CONA NT—Well, how did it OMIT ? Mrs. Miller—
You see this gentleman came into my room to have a bit of
chat. He says to me, Mrs. Miller, which do you think
the prettiest girl, Annie—meaning this young woman—or
Lucy, meaning another young lodger of mine. Why, says
I, if I speak the truth, Lucy for my money—she is all na-
tural—she's neither painted, padded, bustled, nor stuffed.
—(Laughter, in which the Bench joined.)
Miss Anna (scrubbing her cheeks)—Me painted and
padded 1
Redhaired Gentleman—l can prove, your Worship, she
is neither padded nor painted.
Miss Anna (twisting herself about)—Me stuffed and
bUstled !
Pc:Alt:tired Gentleman—l can prove she's neither bustled
nor stuffed.
Mr. CON NT (handing over the warrant)—There, I shall
discharge the warrant, and leave you your remedy at the
Sessions if you choose to indict.
The redhaired gentleman and Miss Anna Adeliza
walked arm-in-arm away, and Mrs. Miller waddled after
them, vowing she'd make the house too hot to bold them
if they entered it again.

SHAMEFUL PROCEEDINGS.

On Thursday the Marquis of Waterford and some of

his friends went to Windsor, and dined with some of the
officers at the Foot Barracks, which place they left between
ten and eleven o'clock at night. On their way to the
Castle Inn, where the carriages had been left, they com-
mitted a number of disgraceful outrages. In the line of
streets they passed through they broke the knockers off
the_ doors, and not content with this, they, in many in-
stances, threw them through the windows of the houses
from whence they had been taken. In one instance,
where the lady of a Reverend Gentleman, connected with
Eton College, was lying dangerously ill in bed, they broke
the knocker off the door, and threw it in at the windo-v
of the room where she was lying, and the alarm occasioned
to her thereby was so great that it is said her life is
despaired of. In the meantime, Mr. Gillman, the superin-
tendent of the Windsor police, received information of wl at
was going on, and hastened, with the force at his disposal,
to the spot ; but, before he arrived, the party were satisfied
with their " sport," and had retreated to their hotel. One
of the constables attempted to secure one of them in their
retreat, but he was quckly attacked by his companions,
who rescued his prisoner from him and severely maltreated
him. Mr. Gillman, seeing the excited state of the Mar-
quis and his companions, and fearing if he were to make
any attempt to secure them that some serious breach of
the peace might take place, deemed it the most prudent
course to allow them to retire to their hotel, in the
hope that they would order their carriages and leave the
town without committing any further outrages. While
the attention of the police was directed to the Castle
Inn, two of the Marquis's party went to the College at
Eton, and clambered over the wall into the square, where
the statue of King Henry the Sixth, the founder of the
College, is placed, which they mutilated and disfigured very
much, and wrenched away the sceptre, and carried it away
with them as a trophy. They then rejoined the Marquis
and their other companions at the Castle Inn, and after a
short time their carriages were ordered, and they drove out
of the town towards London. The moment the authorities
of the College were made acquainted with the scandadous
outrage which had been committed they issued a reward of
25 guineas to any person who would give evidence that
would lead to the conviction of the parties concerned in it.
Shortly after the reward was offered the registrar of the
College received a parcel, which, on being oFened, was
found to contain the sceptre which had been taken from the
statue. It is not known whether the College authorities
ntend to take any further steps in the matter.-11fern.Post.

Notwithstanding the ungenial nature of the past
Spring, the fine corn-growing valleys in Wiltshire present a
most healthy and satisfactory appearance.
MILITARY EXECUTION.—It is customary, In like
cases7to tie up the eyes of the prisoners, in order that they may
not shr;nk when the signal for firing is given ; while they them-
selves, kneeling upon their coffins, await the word in the atti-
tude of prayer. His companions readily acceded to the wishes
of the officer by whom the firing party was commanded ; but
the colonel would do nothing of the sort. No ; he had faced
death too often to fear him now ; he would neither permit him-
self to be blindfolded, nor bend the knee. In an upright posi-
tion, and smoking his cigar, he stood to receive the volley, and
when he saw the carbines levelled, he held out 'his breast
proudly towards them. There was but one discharge. Several
balls passed through his head, others riddled his companions
in misfortune, and all three, after we had marched round, and
gazed upon them, were thrust into their coffins, and committed
to the dust.—Gleig's Hussar.
The Wesleyan Methodists of this city have been
thrown into a state of much anxiety and alarm by the sudden
disappearance of one of their Ministers, the Rev. Mr. Hodg-
son. lie had been out in the country with his colleagues,
the Rev. Messrs. Martin and Lusher, to hold a Missionary
meeting, and had left them to return home on Thursday, last,
but he has not yet arrived. Some time ago lie suffered se-
verely from a mental affection, so much so that he ceased from
his ministerial duties for four years, and it is only, since the
last conference that he has resumed his labours. It is, there-
fore, feared that his malady has returned upon him, and that
he may now be wandering about the country, or that some ac-
cident has befallen him.—Bath Chronicle.
