WARWICK RACES, 1830.—The case respecting the dis-
puted race between Sir M. Wood and Mr. Beardsworth (won by
Birmingham) was to be tried yesterday at Warwick ; the betting
is even, Mr. B. for choice.

A formidable snake was killed on Crimson
Hill, within the parish of Curry Mallett, about a fortnight
since ; it measured in circumference eight inches, and in
length four feet ten inches.—Bath Journal.

CHOLERA MORBUS.—Thc following is Sir
MATTHEW TIERNEY'S recipe for this disease:_" Caje-
puta oil, 25 drops he a wine-glass of hot water. If not
relieved in five minutes, take 50 more."

Harvest has become general in the neigh-
hood of Penzance. The harvest is so forward in the
neighbourhood of Liskeard, that the wheat there will be
nearly in sheaf this week.

On Friday last, whilst Mr. CUMMINS was in
conversation with Mr. 13/tax, bailiff for Sir H. HOSKYNS,
Bart., he suddenly exclaimed " GOD bless me, Mr. PEAK,
I cannot gee you had lost the sight of both his eyes
instantaneously.— Gloucester Journal.

A great quantity of timber has been lately
imported into Leith. Many of the logs are of great
length and immense thickness : one of them is said to be
the longest ever imported here, being 85 feet in length.
—Edinburgh Advertiser.

It gives us great pleasure to state, on what we
deem good authority, that the proprietors of three very
extensive establishments have signified their intention of
totally discontinuing the truck system at their respective
works.—Bolton.Chronicle.

A meeting ofdelegates from the various trades,
and from the weavers of the different districts in Paisley
and its neighbourhood, took place in the King's Arms Inn,
on Monday evening, to concert measures to facilitate the
progress of the Reformßill through Parliament. —Scotsman,
The accounts from Stangate Creek are most
favourable. About 200 ships were lately under quaran-
tine, now only about 27. No cases of sickness ; and it is
affirmed that when the vessels sailed from Russia with
cholera on board, in no instance did it continue above four
days after putting to sea.

No set of men ever evinced such a disinter-
ested disregard of any thing like popular feeling and
opinion as the present Opposition ; for not only do they
set their faces against Reform at home, but select Don
MIGUEL, the beloved FERDINAND, and the King of Hot-
LAND, as their foreign pets and favourites.

A certain Reverend, Who is not a Member of
the Temperance Society, being lately asked by a dealer to
purchase some fine old Jamaica, dryly answered, " To
tell ye the truth, Mr. —, I canna' say I'm very fond
o' rum ; for, if I tak' flair than six tuttel,rs, it's very apt
to gi'e me a beadaehe."— Glasgow Chronicle.

Several of the St. Ives drift-boats brought in
from 6,000 to 10,000 fish each, yesterday morning. It
is understood that the whole of the St. Ives boats are on
their return from the herring fishery, on the Irish coact,
where only those who went early have done well. On
Tuesday night, as one of the hoes, the Agenoriu, BEIt.
nistm4, was on her return from the Irish coast, she fell
in with a vast shoal of pilchards, 20,000 of which fish
she brought into St. Ives on Wednesday morning._ West
Briton.

Sir WALTER ScoTT's similitude between the
project for taking to pieces the CiviJ Constitution of Eng-
land, and the separation of the component puts of a re-
peating watch by children, appears to have been suggested
by one of the poems of RICHARD LOVELACE
" A reformation I would have
As for our griefs a sovereign salve;
That is, a cleansing of each wheel
Of state, that yet some rust doth feel;
But not a reformation, so,
As to reform were to o'erthrow;
Like watches by unskilful men
Disjointed, and set ill again."

DUBOIS.—Some time after the nomination
of Dußois to the archbishopric of Cambrai, a prostitute,
who bad free entrance into the house of the Regent, came
and asked a favour of him. "Speak," said the Regent ;
" what do you want ?"—" The abbey of Montmartre," re•
plied she. At these words Pniur and Dußois burst
into a fit of laughter. "Why do you laugh at my re-
quest?''
should
saidshe thestootibe a
Abbe.nAlb?(BB7,, The RegentArchbishop,arean‘a
vs
and why
obliged to admit that she was right. The Regent had fits
of remorse, and manifested them to Dußois. " what
will history say ? It will represent the orgies of nay re-
gency as those fetes which all know of the Giurt of
HENRY 111. Our festivals of darkness will be brought
to light ; posterity av ill know the details of them ; the ar-
tists will engrave them." He added, " They will know,
at least, that all was done at the instigation of a Cardinal."
Then reproaching him with having from his youth ha-
bituated him to the excesses of libertinism, be said, " Be-
gone, dog of a Cardinal !" But the Cardinal knew his
game, and had only to give a hint of having discovered
some new pleasure, whereudon the Regent opened his
large ryes, and demanded immediately to be made ac-
quainted with h.—Dr. Lardner's Cabinet Library.

PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE OF
DAVID GARRICK. Loaner, 1830.
We have just perused a huge quarto volume
(the first) under this attractive title, respecting 'J(..I
which much public curiosity has been excited,
and which—a rare occurrence—will not., in this
instance, be disappointed. When we consider
the vast space that the first actor of ancient or
modern time occupied during his busy career, in
the world's eye ; when we remember that from
the first year of his appearance in London at
Goodman's-fields theatre, in 1741, down to the
moment of his retirement from the stage, in the
year 1778, he was constantly before the public ;
that during this protracted period he was on
terms, of more or less intimacy with all the wise,
the illustrious, the patriotic, of Great Britain ;
that he was the favourite of 1)r. Johnson, the
filend and companion of the celebrated Lord
Camden, the associate of Quin, and Foote, and
Barry, and Henderson, the protege of Pope, the
cottempondent of Bishop Warburton, the fos-
terer of the early genius of Sheridan and Sid -
dons—when we remember all this, we can rea-
dily comprehend the interest that, even at this
comparatively distant period, must be attached
to the biography of such a man. The present
volume, we repeat, will not disappoint such ex-
pectation. It is introduced by a well-written
memoir of Garrick, and contains his voluminous
correspondence with all, or nearly so, the illus-
trious characters of his time. The letters of
Bishop Warburton, in particular, are uncom-
monly entertaining, and clear up many points in
the great actor's life hitherto obscure and unex-
plained. We shall, from time to time, give
o_Atracts, as our contracted limits will allow, on
the conviction that they will prove the source of
much amusement and information to our readers.
The letters of Mr. Newton alone arc a store-
house of valuable theatrical criticism, and deserve
to be generally known.

The Windsor Castle, from Riga, now de-
liYering her cargo of grain at Grangemouth, having been
relieved from quarantine, has communicated sonic curious
particulars relative to the cholera morbus, which tend in-
, disputably to establish the fact, that it is by the medium
of the atmosphere the disease is alone communicated. it
vessel approaching the town was attacked at the distance
of fifteen miles, and four of the crew fell victims. We
are assured of the fact, (although it smells of the Awe-
rican,) that thousands of fishes, dying and dead, were
daily seen floating upon their backs down the Dwina, and
that this was caused by their leaping out of the water after
flies, &c. There is elle circumstance which, at all event.,
should be carefully attended to when the cargoes are taken
out of vessels : the great quantity of mats seem to be a
fertile cause of harbouring ►miasmatic effluvia, and as their
worth is nothing to the merchant, they ought instantly to
be burned.—Scotsman

THE LATE EARL OF NORBURY.—ThiS
Judge, so celebrated for hie jests and witticisms, was the
second son of DANIEL TOLER, Esq., of Beckwood, county
Tipperary. His Lordship was educated for the legal pro-
fession, and, becoming a member of the Irish bar, rendered
himself conspicuous for his advocacy of Tory principles.
It is said that the Noble Earl was first returned to the
Irish Parliament through the influence of the faction of
" undertakers," as they were called, from undertaking the
management of the Irish House of Commons for the
British Minister. His devotions to Lord CASTLEREAGH,
Lord CLARE, and Mr. PITT, brought to him successively
the offices of Irish Solicitor General,: 1789, Attorney-
General, 16th July, 1798, and Lord Chief Justice of the
Common Pleas, 20th December, 1800 ; which office he
retained, although deprived of nearly all his faculties, ex-
cept punning and riding, for the last ten or twelve years,
until 1827, when Lord PLUNKETT succeeded him. His
Lordship was created•an Irish Peer, by the title of Baron
NORBURY of Ballyorenade, county Tipperary, in 1800.
The Earl's consort, GRA cx GRAHAM, daughter of IlEcron,
GRAHAM, Esq., had been created a Peeress in her own
right, 7th Nov. 1797, by the title of Baroness NoßwooD,
On his Lordship's retirement from the Common Pleas he
was raised to the dignity of Earl of NORBURY and Vis-
count GLANnms, with remainder to his second son, the
Hon. HECTOR JOHN GRAHAM TOLER, who, of course, has
succeeded to those hereditary honours. The Earl's eldest
son, who is considered an eccentric character, succeeded
his mother in the Barony of Norwood, in July, 1822.
The present Earl of NORBURY is married to the only
daughter and heiress of WILLIAM BRABAZON, anti niece
to Sir ANTHONY BRABAZON, Bart. By this lady his
Lordship has an only daughter, Lady HELEN TOLER,
born 1814. The deceased Nobleman bar left two
daughters, Lady ISABELLA TOLER, unmarried, and Lady
LETITIA, married to WILLIAM BROWNE, EN., of
Browne's Hill, county Carlow. Lord NORRURY was
known, among the lower classes in Ireland, as " the hang-
ing Judge." His Lordship, at his death, was a Privy
Councillor in Ireland, a Trustee of the Irish Linen 11Ia •
nufacture, and a Visitor of Maynooth College. He also en-
joyed a pension of 4,0001. per annum as a retired Judge.

A CHARACTER.—There is at present an ex-
traordinary character existing in the French capital, who
divides the public attention with Lours PHILLIPPE, the
Poles, and the heroes of July. He is named CIiODRUC-
DUCLOS, and his description and history are as follows :
He is a modern TIALON. His dress consists of a few miser-
able rags, and his beard, which has not been trimmed for
many years, reaches to his middle. Every evening, he walks
round the galleries of the Palais Royal, offering, in the mean-
ness of his attire, a strange contrast to the magnificence and
splendour of that celebrated place. Yet this specimen of
wretchedness was, in former times, a leader of fashion—
a titan celebrated for his multifarious accomplishments,--
remarkable for his beauty, and no less renowned as a first-
rare exquisite ! The history of Ctionauc-DucLos offers ,
even in this age of wonders and strange events, one of the
most striking examples of the caprices of fortune. He is
a man of family, and was the heir to a handsome fortune.
In his early life he was recherche to a proverb in his ex-
quisitism. He was a good musician and dancer, and an
adept in the use of arms. He made himself famous at Bor-
deaux by an adventure at the theatre. A lady having
been insulted in his presence, be lifted the offender in his
arms, and threw him from the first tier of boxes into the pit.
He fought many duels, and killed one of his antagonists.
He was the intimate friend of the Ex-Minister I'EvRONNLT,
to whom, on more than one occasion, he proved of essen-
tial service. In early life they were inseparable compa-
nions, and nude sundry vows of eternal friendship. During
the supremacy of BUONAYARTE, DLICLOS proved him-
self one of the most strenuous partisans of the exiled
family. In the advancement of their cause he exposed
himself to the greatest peril, besides expending upon it
every franc of his large fortune. On the return of Lours
XVIII- to the throne of France, he, with many others,
presented himself to receive the reward of his services and
fidelity to the royal cause. Ills claims, however, were
disregarded, or the offers made were such as be considered
totally inadequate to his merit. Disappointed and indig..
nant, he withdrew from Court. The,accession of PEs-KoN-
NET to power revived his hopes.. He waited on his former
friend, but his mission was one of those with which men
in power are very willing to dispense. PEracoNNEr re-
ceived the bosom friend of his youth in a most states-
man-like manner, and on receiving a hint from his
visitor, that his wants were most pr:ssing, magnanimously
;presented him with 200 franca (8/.) Front that moment his
:life has been an enigma. No one can tell who provides for his
subsistence, since, so far from ever asking alms, he is never
known to speak a word. His Bole occupation appears to
be, to perambulate the splendid galleries of the Palais
Royal. He has twice been taken before the tribunals, on
a charge of outraging public decency by his insufficient
attire; but he was not IsiNceted to any punishment, and
he still continues to parade his rags and misfortunes. Ile
xpends two francs per day ; and his landlady, the owner
of a mietrable tenth-rate inn, declared on his trial, that he
is so punctual that he will not allow a day to pass without
paying the said sum. Trifling as the pittance is, it afforded
matter for speculation how Duct.os could procure it, since
it was notorious, that every sous of his property had f eon
pent. It is surmised by some, that a small pension IR
allowed him by the lady whom he protected at the theatre
of Bordeaux!
