LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER SO, 180.

The Ceremony over, and the Fees paid, and the
Bride kissed by some of the old Gentlemen, we to
old Harley's to Breakfast, where what Wiggyns do
call a Grand Spread, very fine both for Show and
Meats, every Dish ornamented with Flowers and Gim-
cracks, the cold Chickens trimmed with Itibands, and
the Bride-Cake, having upon it Wax Cupids and Tur-
tle-Doves, was pretty. So down we sat, Dick stiff and
sheepish, and Pall also, shamefaced, and trying to hide
her Blushes with a Nosegay. Pall's Mother in Tears,
and her Father solemn, and the Bridesmaids mostly
bashful, but a little black one that sate by me very
merry, and I did by-and-bye pull Crackers with her,
till my Wife suddenly thrust a Pin into my Arm, to
the Quick. The Company first silent, till a Friend of
the young Pair, who did say that he had known
them both from Babies, did propose their Health
in a pretty pathetic but eonfused Speech, and,
breaking down in the Midst of a Sentence,
conclude, by wishing them long Life and Happi-
ness, with great Applause. Then the Bride Groom
to return biaa:.ks, but, perplexed with his Pro-
nouns, obliged to stop short too, but, he said, over-
come by his Feelings. The Champagne flowing, we
soon merrier, especially an old Uncle of Dick's who
began to make Jokes, which did trouble the Bride
an I Bride-Groom. But they presently, with
much Crying and Kissing and sluicing of Hands,
away in a Coach-and-Four, amid the Cheering of
the Crowd in the Street and the Boys shouting
to behold the fine Equipage ; and 3ervabts and
old Women looking on from the opposite
Windows. We eating and drinking with great
Delight till late in the Afternoon, but at last broke
up, the Multitude saluting us each as we stepped
into the street, and the Policeman and Beadle that
were guarding the Door in great State touching their
Hats. A grand Marriage Braaktast do give a brave
Fred to the Mob, in Show, and to the Company in
Eating and Drinking, and is great Fun to all but
those most concerned. But to think what a Fuss is
made about most Marriages, and how little Reason
for it is shown by most People's married Life!—

ning 3 were tried, as well as the public at large.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
NEWMARKET HOUGHTON MEETING.

FRIDAY NIGHT.—The only Derby bets laid this even
ing were 1,000 to 50 agst Mildew, and 25 to 1 to three
or four hundred pounds agst Deicoon. 2,000 to 20 was
laid agst Kennington for the Chester Cup.
The following very important rule was made this
evening by the committee of the subscription-room:—
Resolved by the Committee of the Public Subscrip-
tion-rooni,Newmarket—

"That, in order to induce a speedy settlement of the
accounts, and to prevent persons who are defaulters on
the turf from taking advantage of the lapse of time
which by the death of their creditors may enable them
to come forward and demand payment of their debtors,
without having to pay the sums they originally owed—
it is the opinion of this Committee that the following
ule is necessary:—

" That a person in default shall at any period within
two years from the date of his defalcation be at liberty,
after having settled with his creditors, to demand the
sum due to him from his debtors, but that after the ex-
piration of two years from the date of his defalcation,
though he may, by settling with his creditors, be per-
mitted to resume the privileges of the turf, he shall
have forfeited all claim upon the persons indebted to him,
who shall thenceforth be absolved from their liabilities
to the said defaulter.

(Signed) " GEORGE PAYNE, Chairman."

With the Selling Handicap terminated a meeting
which, notwithstanding the absence of that match-
making spirit fur which the '° Hay and Straw" week has
always been remarkable, has been one of the busiest,
best attended, and most exciting known for many
seasons; had the stables been healthy, there is little
doubt that it would have run into a second week. The
weather to-day, until after the first four or five races,
was showery. and the mist so thick that it was impossi-
ble to time them; during the remainder of the afternoon
it was extremely fine.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

It is intended to relieve the vessels serving on the
coast of Africa station at shorter periods than hitherto.
They are not in future to run more than two years.
The Dolphin, 3, brigantine, Lieut. the Hon. R. F.
Boyle, just arrived from the coast, has been under
two years and two months in commission, and the
Britomart, 8, Commander Chamberlain, expected
home next month, will have been under two years and
a half in commission.

It is reported that the master ropemaker of Devon-
port dockyard is about to be superannuated. He is
one of the best practical ropemakers in the service,
and although on the wrong side of sixty, from what
we could see a short time since, was equally as
efficient as his first foreman. The Admiralty will
lose a good and now a very valuable servant if they
superannuate him.

The naval apprentices at the Forts have been ma-
terially reduced by drafts to the ships commissioned,
and their vacancies are now ordered to be filled up to
150 in each tender at Portsmouth and Devonport.
There are about five candidates for one vacancy.
Lieut. George Bary (1841) died October 12, at
Newton Houie, county Kildare, in the 59:h year of
his age. He had been on full pay for 20 years during
the war. He entered the navy June 9, 1803, on board
the Colossus, 74. He served in the Canopus, 80, on
the Mediterranean station ; and on October 26, 1809,
contributed to the destruction of the French line-of-
battle ships Robuste and Lion. He was promoted Jan.
11, 1814, into the Jasper, 18, Captain George Edward
Watts, and after an intermediate and very active em-
ployment in the Chesapeake, returned home in the
summer of 1814.

Lieut. Charles Shortt (1821), of the coast guard
station of Long Island, died a few days since.
VOLUNTEERS FOR THE NAVY.—The Stromboli, 6,
steam sloop, Commander Lord A. Beauclerk, has

Tumour, has gone to Devonport from Queenstown

steam-vessel, Lieutenant Commander Lloyd, is at
Bristol, raising seamen. The Trident, steam-vessel,
Lieut. Commander Risk, is at Liverpool, raising men ;
an I the Dasher, steam vessel, Lieut. Commander

mediate service at Sheerness.

Mr. Donovan, a supernumerary gunner of Chatham
ordinary, and who was in charge of the Latona, 42,
was tried by court-martial on Wednesday, on a charge
of drunkenness, preferred against him by Lieutenant
James Carter, and sentenced to be dismissed the
service.

The Firebrand, 6, steam-frigate, Captain Knox,
will be paid at Portsmouth, and will proceed to
Devonport, where she will be joined by the Spiteful,
6, steam sloop, Commander Carmichael, and both will
proceed to Malta, to be under the orders of Sir Wil-
liam Parker, relieving the Bulldog and Rosamond
steam. sloops.
The Cuckoo steam vessel, Commander Dumaresq,

vice as economically as possible, at Portsmouth. if
no defects are visible the shipwrights are not to make

usually the case.

ship at Portsmouth, and is to have everything pre-
pared accordingly, instead of Colussus, 80.
The Ganges, 84, Captain Smith, C. 8., the Seagull
packet-brig, and the Conflict screw steam sloop,

London, East Indiaman, arrived from London yes-
terday, bound to Madras. She remains to embark
passengers and stock.
