hood), added to a Sweepstakes of 5 sovs. each. The races
are to be held on 94 acres of land, over a circular course near
the Shooters' Hill-road.
Bellewstown Races (Second Day).—The King's Plate for
Irish bred horses, was won' by Mr. Barry's Wait-a-while, beat-
ing three others; and the Bellewstown Plate of 30 sovs., added
to a Sweepstakes of 5 sovs. each, was won by Mr. Barry's
Fracture, beating two others.
A law case of some interest to sportsmen was lately noticed,
and the final result must be interesting :—Various gentlemen
in West Lothian were charged with the Game Duty by the
Surveyor of Taxes —they appealed and were relieved by the
Commissioners, and a case was subsequently taken for the opi-
nion of the Judges. The parties, it appeared, had attended at
the meeting of a coursing club, of which some were and some
were not members, on occasions when the dogs of unlicensed
and the dogs of licensed, but absent owners, were allowed to
run. The game killed was at the disposal of the Club, and
there were always qualified individuals present running their
own dogs. Lord Cockburn in deciding the case disapproved
of the determination of the Commissioners, and found the par-
ties liable in the Game Duty. This state of the law, it is be-
lieved, is not generally known.
A bet between Lord Henry Seymour and Major Frazer
came off on Saturday morning. The Major was to ride, with
post horses, from Paris to Brussels and back in thirty-six hours,
but he did not perform the distance in that time, as he was
greatly impeded on the road for want of horses. In going he
was detained a considerable time at one post-house, and in
coming back he and the courier were obliged to ride several
stages in a cabriole. These were not the only difficulties he
had to encounter, therefore, the Committee of the Jockey
Club, after taking all these circumstances into consideration,
has declared the engagement null and void, and decided that
the Major is to repeat this no very easy task. In consequence
all bets remain in statu quo.

The Dean and Chapter of Canterbury have issued
a circular letter to the several Chapters in England and
Wales, proposing that a meeting of two or more members of
each Chapter be holden in London, at an early time, for the
purpose of taking into consideration the reports of the Church
Commissioners, so far as relate to Deans and Chapters, and
any Bill which may be presented to Parliament founded on
such reports.—Kentish Gazette.
WRAXHALL'S POSTHUMOUS MEMOIRS.---Of
the numerous highly interesting subjects on which these Me-
moirs throw light, perhaps none will more strongly fix the
attention of the reader than the singular details connected with
the rise and progress of the mental alienation of George HI.
in the years 1788 and 89, and of the consequent political in-
trigues respecting the Regency, in which Pitt, Fox, Burke,
and Sheridan took such memorable parts. A record of this
remarkable period, by one who knew more than could be at-
tained by the generality of observers constitutes what may be
called the " True Romance of History."
On Saturday last an attempt at murder was com-
mitted in Sunderland by a man named Mason, who has for a
length of. time been insane, on Mrs. Mitchell, wife of a sea
captain of that port. The sufferer resided in the same house
with. Mason, and bad gone into his room and inquired how he
was, when be instantly took up a knife and inflicted a severe
wound in her throat, and, but for the interference of his own
wife, it is probable he would have killed her on the spot. The
knife was taken out of his hand with much difficulty. Mrs.
Mitchell is still alive, but her recovery is doubtful. Mason is
taken into custody.—Tyne Mercury.

• Mrs. Trollope seems resolved that the laugh she
excited against Brother Jonathan, in her " Domestic Manners
of the Americans," shall not soon subside for want of fuel.
In her new work, "Jonathan Jefferson Whitlaw," she has
revelled again in exquisite specimens of Yankee-talk, more
ridiculous, if possible, than those she first gave to Europe,
inasmuch as they exhibit, in addition to the dialogue current
in the more polished societies of the United States, the pecu-
liar graces of backwood phraseology. The "locators" on the
banks of the Mississippi live and move in all their glory in the
animated pages of Mrs. Trollope's new work.

Cliuncit-RATEs.-011 Friday last, the Ist inst.,
was held the adjourned meeting of Newport, Monmouthshire,
to consider the propriety of granting a rate. At the usual
hour, the Vicar not having arrived, Joseph Crosbie, Esq., was
called to the Chair, and the consideration of the question was
further adjourned to that day twelvemonth.

THE VIOLIN.—The numerous lovers of this very
attractive instrument are shortly to have, it seems, a manual
devoted expressly to their gratification—an amateur, named
Dubourg, having now ready for publication a work which pur-
poses to exhibit, in a popular manner, a complete, but con-
densed view of the history and progress of the violin, with bio-
graphical and critical sketches (distributed under the several
principal schools) of the great artists who have shone through
its medium. A chapter in especial reference to amateurs,- a
Memoir of Paganini, and a variety of anecdotes, are among
the contents of the work.

EAGLE FIGIIT.—A singular occurrence took place
a few days ago in the neighbourhood of N. Cunningham.
A pair of eagles, supposed to be of the male kind, met and
encountered in the air, closing together so fiercely that both
came to the ground, where they were continuing the conflict,
when a young man named Montgomery, in whose field they
fell, and who was attracted to the spot by the noise, accom-
panied by some other persons, came upon them, and succeeded
in capturing one of them, which appeared injured. The other,
on their apprbach, put himself in a posture of defence, and
being by far the larger, so intimidated his assailants, that they
feared to advance upon him until he was able to fly away.
The other was given to Air. Patterson, of Mason Lodge,
who secured it, as he thought, by a chain ; the royal bird,
however, was not twenty-four hours a prisoner, for on reco-
vering its strength, it succeeded in breaking its fetters, and
It measured about six feet four inches

Hon. Baronet at the same time presented a petition from a
Clergyman in the diocese of Bristol, against the alienation
of the property of the Irish Church for.other than Church
purposes.
Mr. T. ATTWOOD presented a great number of pe-
titions from places in the county of Suffolk, praying for a
repeal of the new Poor Law Act. There could be no
doubt, the Hon. Member said, that the condition of the
labouring classes had been much improved within the last
two years, but then that improvement was in nowise attri-
butable to the operation of the new poor laws. The fact
was, that the new poor laws had done no good whatever,
except in grinding down the wages of the labouring classes,
and in violating the natural rights of families, by first sepa-
rating them, and then locking them in a sort of bastille.
The Hon. Member also presented several petitions from
places in Cambridgeshire, with a similar prayer.
The Marquis of CHANDOS presented three petitions ;
one from a place in Bucks, against the new Poor Law Act ;
'another from certain inhabitants of the same county, against
allowing foreign corn to be taken out of bond to be ground
for exportation ; and the third from Chorley, in favour of a
Ten Hours Labour Factory Bill.
Mr. HODGES broUght up the Report of a Committ
on a private Bill ; after which
An HON. MEMBER was understood to move that the
House should be counted.

Strangers were ordered to withdraw, and there being
only thirty-three Members present, the Speaker adjourned
the House, at Half-past Four o'Clock, until to-morrow.

QUARANTINE REGULATIONS AT

MOUTH OF THE DANUBE.

OFFICIAL NOTICE.
(From the Odessa Gazette of May 25. )

The islands formed at the different mouths of the Da-
nube have not hitherto, owing to their deserted state, of-
fered any resources to vessels navigating that river- The
entrance of the branch of Soulina was not even clearly in-
dicated, and vessels, in case of shipwreck, never received
the necessary assistance. Besides this, all the Russian
and other vessels coming from the ports of the Black Sea,
or the Sea of Azov, and proceeding to Ismail or Reni, be-
ing obliged to pass by the branch of Soulina, the shores of
which are in a suspected state as regards health, were sub-
mitted with their crews, passengers, and merchandise, to all
the inconvenience of a state of quarantine. In order to
avoid all these obstacles, and to preserve from pestilence
the islands of the Danube, which carry on a constant in-
tercourse with Bessarabia, there has been established, in
virtue of the treaty of Adrianople, a quarantine in two sta-
tions at the mouth of the Soulina, the one at the island of
Lete, as the practical quarantine station, and the other at
the island of St. George, for vessels en contumace. The
left bank of the Soulina in all its extent, is destined for the
treatment of vessels ell pratique, and the right shore for the
treatment of vessels en contumace. To each of these two
stations are attached the necessary functionaries, from
whom a knowledge of foreign languages is considered indis-
pensable.
Captains of vessels may on every occasion have recourse
to these functionaries, who will provide them with all pos-
sible relief and assistance ; and in case of any unforeseen
difficulties, or cause of complaint arising, means have been
taken for the speedy attainment of justice to all parties.
As soon as the appurtenances of the lazarettos have been
constructed on the island of Lete, the captains and pas-
sengers of merchant weasels shall be received there, if they
desire it to pass the term of quarantine, and from thence
they may proceed by the shortest and most direct road to
Ismail without exposing themselves to the delays caused by
the long sinuosities of the. Danube, and the rapidity of the
current of that river.

The guard vessels (brandvaklile) stationed in the pass of
the Soulina shall, in case of necessity, render every assist-
ance to the vessels which navigate the river, and if they aro
in danger shall furnish them with all the succours of which
they may stand in need.
It is permitted to every man pursuing the occupation of
a pilot to found at the mouth, and in the passage of the
Soulina, establishments for the temporary reception of ves-
sels, where they may be furnished with sails, ropes, and
other articles. The Government will afford to these pilots
every encouragement and assistance.

The quarantine regulations severely enforced everywhere,
being in operation through the whole extent of the Soulina,
with rules of course varied according to the locality, and
rendered as little embarrassing as possible, masters of mer-
chant vessels are invited to observe them with punctuality.
They will thus avoid all difficulty, and will not undergo any
delay in her voyage.
