HARROW SCHOOL.

Yesterday MARTIN JONES, a smith, at Har-
row, made a complaint at Bow-street Office of
the injury which his house had received from the
Scholars of Harrow School, and who had even
threatened the life of himself and his son, be-
cause their conduct had been mentioned to the
Masters of the School. Mr. Missuur.r., the
Magistrate, after hearing the case at great length,
told the complainant that be might rest assured
he should have protection. The worthy Magis-
trate then gave directions that the information,
as taken in writing, should be enclosed to Dr.
BuTLEII, the Head Master ; and that Ellis, one
of the principal officers, should be the bearer of
of it, with directions to act as circumstances
might require. Ellis set off with the complainant
for Harrow in the course of the afternoon.

BOW-STREET (This Day.)—Ellis, the Officer
sent to Harrow yesterday, appeared at the Office this day. He
stated that JowEs, the complainant, was desired by the
Masters of the School to attend them, and state the circum-
stances of the case. He did so, and Ellis waited at his house till
he returned, when he informed the Officer that matters had
been made up to his satisfaction, without entering into particu-
lars. This information was given to Sir RICHARD BIRNIE,
who declared himself by no means satisfied with the arrange-
ment that had taken place.

It is said that a Peruvian Mining and Trading
Company is forming, and that Messrs. NIND and
COTTERILL, of Throgmortou-street, are receiving
applications for shares.
Mr. Secretary CANNING, we are sorry to say,
was not so well yesterday. The Right Honour-
able Gentleman is now suffering from an in.
creased attack of the gout, brought on, we fear,
by the exertions which he made on Tuesday
night in the House of Commons.
On Monday the Right lion. Lord TEYNIJAM
took the oaths and his seat in the House of
Lords.

DitURY-LANE.—The Oratorio at this Theatre,
last night, consisted chiefly of Selections from
WEBER, particularly his Battle of Waterloo, his
Overture to Euranthe, and a Selection from his
Preciosa. The two DE BEGNIS and BRAIIAM
were the chief singers. BRAIIAM gave a new
martial air with great animation. NicHoLsoN
gave a Concerto on the Flute, and KIESEWETTEIt
on the Violin. There was a numerous audience.
'THEATRICAL.—The agreeable little theatre in
Catherine-street was opened again last night with
The Beggar's Opera, and the farce of A Rolland
for an Oliver. Considering that the entertain-
ments of this place are merely in an incipient
state, they hold forth promising qualities. The
Performers in general in both pieces were well
received.

INFIRMARY FOR Clltr.natrt. Yesterday a
dinner was given at the City of London Tavern, to commemo-
rate the foundation of the Universal Infirmary for Children,
which took place in 1816, and is now established in the Water-
loo-bridge-road. This is one of the moseliseful charitable in-
stitutions in the metropolis. It is exclusively devoted to the
cure of the diseases of children of the poor, who, immediately
upon being brought to the Institution, are examined by com-
petent physicians, and furnished with such medicines as their
respective cases may require. Wards have been erected in the
building for the reception of patients, which will be opened as
soon as sufficient funds shall be provided. The charity, there-
fore, partakes of the nature of an infirmary, as well as a dispen-
sary—the former for surgical cases, and the latter for the ad-
ministration of medicines and advice gratis, in every case within
the physician's province. As a proof of the utility of the insti-
lteusstiotnh,ani t
5i 5,,03n618y
patients
save been admitted, and out of thataryh to state, that since its foundation, no
number only 1,200 have died. The dinner was most respect-
ably attended, rand a considerable sum was collected towards
the support of the institution.
