IteAoration, to become bankrupt, bat made a formal application for being

SUDDEN DEATll.—Yesterday morning, at ten
o'clock, an inquest was held at the Montague Arms, Montague-street,
Russell square, on the body of George Briggs, aged 24 years. It ap-
Pezred that the deceased, who had been for some time in the service of
Sir James Flower, and was apparently in robust health on Sunday night,
having just seen home a respectable female to whom he was paying his
addresses, as he was leaving the door he suddenly fell to the ground, and
ceased to exist. Verdict—" Died by the Visitation of God."
Yesterday morning at a quarter past seven a hostile
meeting took place at Wormwood Scrubs, between Mr. Borthwick, late
M.P. for Evesham, and Mr. Rushout, of the Ist Life Guards, in conse-
quence of some observations lately made by the former gentleman at a
public dinner given to him by his late constituents. After two shots each
had been exchanged we understood that Captain 13iddulph, acting for
Mr. Rushout, withdrew his principal from the ground, and the atair of
course terminated.

A few days since, while the Normandie was landing

of a few minutes, she was safely delivered of a fine boy.
TIIE WELLINGTON STATUE.--011 Monday the
Wellington Statue Committee met numerously at the Mansion-house;
the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor in the Chair. After several speeches
had been made, the Committee requested Sir Francis Chantrey to com-
mence his work immediately. Sir Francis Chantrey assured the meet-
ing that the Duke of Wellington was to sit to him in a few days. The
Committee then adjourned.
THE MANUVACTURING INTEREST.--A person
who resides in this town, but who travels in Lincolnshire and Yorkshire,
assures us that the exportation of machinery by the port of Hull to the
Continent is enormous, lie states that a party who were then pack-
ing machinery at Hull assured him that their house had exported ma-
chinery to the value of 10,0001. in that week. Ile further states that
nearly one-half of the craft that ply on the Ouse, the Aire, and the
Don, are engaged in the traffic. The Manchester machinery has been
sent by the Liverpool and Leeds coach to the latter place, from thence
it is taken, as well as the wool and flax maehinery, by the railway, by
way of Selby, to Hull. Since Mr. P. Thomson gave up the bobbins
and carriages that were seized on their transit to Prague, it appears
little notice is taken of the export of machinery to the east countries.—

The Algonquin packet, at Philadelphia, had forty
days of heavy wasterly gales, which obliged her to run too far South.
she brought from Liverpool a cargo valued at 300,000 dollars, sot a
package of which was injured, She sprung a leak, and the leak was
two or three feet under water. Captain Turley's sagacity and ability
in saving the vessel and lives of the passengers, were conspicuous on
this occasion. He prepared wood in battens and pieces of canvass, and
nailed them over the breach, to do which he had to swing a man over
the bow with a line round his waist, and as the ship rose on the sea,
he was enabled to give two or three blows with the hammer. No one
could remain over more than five minutes at a time, for with every
plunge she made be was buried in the sea. Captain Turley, his mate,
and the carpenter, took their turn in being dropped over.—New York

mas Mitchell, William Phelps and John Hayes, all to be heavily fined
for greet cruelty to their horses, and the last two also for assaults on
the prosecutors, while taking them into custody. The officers likewise
charged James Bartlett with having carried calves in a eart, packed up
in the usual crud way, with their heads hanging down. Messrs.
Jeremy and Traill suggested a method, with strings, for the calves'
heeds 10 rest on, so as to prevent such cruelty, which plan the defen-
dant promised to adopt, and the complaint was therefore dismissed. A
very aggravated case was, however, unfortunately dismissed by the Lord
Mayor, in which Mrs. Mott's carran had violently lashed a horse to
move a load with two other horses, which five were unable to stir. The
Lord Nam said hit considered the lashing not wanton but necessary.
