JAN. IL of the Royal
Laneashire Regiment, continues his doily :labour •
with unabated ardour. This day makes the t 31b,
during each of which he has walked regularly
thirty Miles, -making an aggltgate of ago miles.
He .-has seven days to walk two hundred and ten
miles snore, to .complete his engagerrknt ; and,
unless some accident should occur, there is scarcely
a doubt but he will win. The ' odds, which were
on the second and third clays five to two, andoeven
four to- one against. him, are now equally as much
in his favour.. His health and spirits continue un-
abated.' He has now acquired a firmer step than
at first, and he feels confident of success. In his
walk he is accompanied by a couple of fifers, who
are relieved, at intervals, playing a quick march,
which keeps up his attention, and assists him in a
regular pace. The ground-on which he walks be-.
ing so near this city, he is daily visited by numbers
of people of all ranks, to witness his prowess. In
the afternoon of Sunday last, the concourse of
people on the Topsham" Road eats scarcely be con-
ceived by those who were not present—indeed it is
supposed there were not less than ten thousand.—
On that day he completed his work by about four
o'clock in the afternoon, when he took en his
. walking dress, and walked, to the Hotel in a suit
of plain clothes, and without music. Whether he
wins or loses, he has certainly the satisfaEtion of.
having the good wishes of all ranks in his favour,
who sincerely hope his exertions will be crowned
with success.

The bets made on Lieutenant 14. being the sub-
jeft of general conversation, on Saturday last
another pedestrian came forward, who .also excited
considerable • interest. He was a Gentleman's ser-
vant, who had undertaken, for a trifling wager, to
walk 50 miles within twelve hours—the ground to
Ile on the Topsham Road, between the one and two
mile stones, the same as that chosen by Lieutenant
H. He started at seven o'clock in the morning;
when he had gone '34 miles be became very faint,
and was on the point of gig in—but,having taken
some refreshment, and rested a short time, his spi-
tits and strength revived;--being also encouraged
by Mr. H. who was walking on the same road, to
exert himself, and 'die game, he again set off, and
completed the so miles in eleven hours and 35 mi-
nutes, being r 5 minute; within the Unit; allotted.

CORK. JAN. £3.—We lament to state, that on
Friday night last, about twenty persons' were lost,
in crossing from Youghal to the County of Water-
ford. The superintendant of the Ferry refused
putting them over, in consequence of the darkness
of the night arid badndss of the weather, which in-
duced them to hire a private boat, notwithstanding
the strongest remonstrances on his part not to
make 'the attempt ; however, they persevered, and
unfortunately perished.

FIRE Rocuurs.---The.merit of the Fire Rockets,
understood to be invented by Mr: CONGREVE, has
not been disputed, but there is some difference of
opinion us to the peison to whom the honour of the
invention is to be assigned. A Gentleman in Glas-
gow, confidently declares, that above five years ago
he invented the method of destroying by fire the
Enemy's 1"lotilla, the plan of which he' submitted to
Dr. 1110xuacu, Professor of Philosophy,—The
Dam., it is said, pfonounced it the most plausible
Method be bad ever seen or• heard of. Sanc-
tioned by this authority, the inventor, it is said,
*rote 'to 'the Commander in Chief, who in conse-
quence ,ordered an. eaaminaiion at Leith, before
Admiral YASIION and several Naval Officers,
who concurred in the previous, approbation which
the plan had obtained. A descriptive plan was
transmitted to his Royal Highness in the begin-
ning of t CM, and in the latter end of the same
year Sir StsiNby SMITH adopted a similar method,
which ' was reported to be the invention of Mr.
CoNi4eva. The Gentleman of Glasgovi, •'who
claims the honour 'of this invention, is now, it
seems, waiting the answers of some Noblemen, to
. whoa he has written on the subjed, and then
means to submit a statement to the'public at large
on 'the cause of the invention, the nature and opera-
tion of it, with his subsequent improveMents, and
copies of the letters which l,e received from the
Commander in Chief, in order to shew,That, if be

COURT OF, SESSION,

Roxetindtt EsTATas.—The only question relative
to this immense succession, remaining befere the
Court of Session, occupied the whole_of their Lord-
ships' time yesterday, being a challcitgo by the heirs
of the old investitures of sixteen feu-dispositions
granted by the last Duke, on the same day, to Mr.
BELLENDxsi Kan, and comprehending the whole of
that noble inheritance, excepting the mansion-
house of Fleurs, and a few acres immediately
around if. The grounds of challenge were in gene-
ral, first, That neither the words nor theintention of
the entail could authorise deeds of such a nature
and second, That the object of the transaction, as ap-•
pearing from the face of the deeds whereby it. was
attempted to be carried into execution, was neither
more nor less than a gratuitous settlement of a valu-
able part of the entailed estate (in a short time pro-
bably not less than from 30,0001. to 40.p001, per
annum) on a series of heirs different from those
called by the ancient investitures. After a very full
deliberation, the Court, sustained the reasons of re-
duction of these fetus. - •
