HE IRISH .DRAGOON.
a Ant--Mrs; O'Daisy.
When first for Ould England I left Killarney,
And footed it merrily over the sea—
The folks they so bother'd me all with their blarney,
I wish'd myself back with sweet Judy M'Cree;
But I hit of a honey, who tipped me some money,
And 'listed me, faith ! in the twink of an eye
A loyal dragoon soon I strutted so funny,
And devil a soul was so merry as I.
A pair of jack boots, oh ! they bade me be claning,
As rough as a badger their surfaces were;
" But, arrah !" says 1, " and what is it.you're maning
Botheration ! I never can polish these here.
That soon they convineed me of sense I was lacking,
And wasn't half up to the best of their fun ;
For scarce had I touch'd 'em with Warren's Jet Blacking,
Ere they shew'd my nate features as bright as the sun.
Sure I thought 'twas Ould Nick, that deceatful rapscallion,
Had play 'd ire some trick, and the phiz was his own;
' But I learned from the mature that drill'd the battalion,
'Twas the beauty of Warren's Jet Blacking alone;
So I carry the face of each lass that passes,
On both my jack boots ; and, no longer a loon,
When 1 visit Killarney, the swate Irish lasses
Will simp,r and sigh for the Irish Dragoon!

WARREN, 3', Strand, London; and sold in every Town in the United

YOLAND'S•SPECIFIC SOLUTION, for the
cure of all disorders of the kidneys, loins, bladder, and
urinary organs in both sexes, is universally allowed by all medical men
who have seen its effects, and by those who have taken it, to be by far
the best, the safest, and the only remedy ever discovered for these com-
plaints, frequently curing in a few hours, after other remedies have
failed. By a peculiar chemical process (known only to the proprietor),
combining the different ingredients; which, acting on each other, renders
the whole more efficacious, is the cause of Yoland's Specific being su-
perior to all other medicines.
Sold, in scaled packets, at 2s. Pd. and 4s. 6d. each, with plain directions,
so that individuals may cure themselves with secrecy and safety.
This medicine has never been known to fail ; but to prove its efficacy,
should it, from any accidental circumstances., not make a perfect cure,
the Proprietor pledges himself (on applicat.sn being made to his agents,
to place the party under the care of a respectable Surgeon until cured)
free of all expense.

Sold, whole,,ale and retail, by Hannay and Co., 63, Oxford-street, Lon-
don ; and by all Medicine Venders in the kingdom.

The high repute and immense sale of this delicate preparation has in-

to attsmpt imposition, by labelling a pot exactly like his, thereby to de
ceive the public and injure him (having actually applied to his printer
for that purpose) ; well knowing they cannot prepare the Fish, the receipt
being an old family one, and the secret in the curing of the Herring, by
which its rancid qualities are destroyed, and it becomes so delicious a

On Monday last, a singular discovery of a seam of
coal was made in Berwick. While some alterations were
being made in the pavement in the yard behind Mr. Ralph
Smit's house, in Bridge-street, the workmen dug up a
quantity of coal. Curiosity dictated a further search, and
the consequence was, that at the depth cf about six inches
from the surface, they came upon a seam of coal, which
measured three feet one inch in thickness. The quality
has been put to the test, and is pronounced excellent. The
treasure, however, has not been improved, but has been
again covered with the earth. Several years ago a similar
discovery was made in Eastern-lane ; the present, there-
fore, appears to be a continuation of that seams—Berwick

SURREY SESSIONS.--(THIS DAY.)

James Grover was convicted of embezzling nine shillings,
received by him on account of his employer, and sentenced
to six months' imprisonment in Brixton Gaol.
William Moth, alias Smith, was convicted of stealing three
sacks of wheat, the property of Samuel Greenfield. The
prosecutor is a farmer residing at Woking, and the prisoner
a labouring man living at the same place. The wheat in
question was stolen from the prosecutor's barn on the night
of the 12th Nov. and taken away in a cart. The track of
the cast wheqls was traced the following morning to the pri-
soner's cottage, where the wheat was found concealed.—
Sentence—Seven years' transportation.
SENTENCES.—The Sessions having terminated, the
CHAIRMAN proceeded to pass sentence upon the prisoners
Who did not receive judgment at the time of their con-
viction :
Edward Ratcliffe, convicted of stealing three barrels of
porter, and one of ale.
The CHAIRMAN, in addressing the prisoner, said he had
no doubt that at the time he committed the offence of
Which he had been convicted, he was not aware that he had
thereby rendered himself liable to a criminal prosecution.
It, however, ought to be generally known that persons who
ordered goods, promising to pay for them on delivery, and
by that means obtained possession of them ; but after hav-
ing done so refused to pa* for or return them, and converted
them to their own use, were in law deemed guilty of felony.
~1n the present case the Jury were satisfied there was no fe-
lonious intent.
Sentenced to solitary confinement in Brixton gaol for 21
gays.
Several others were sentenced to various terms of impri-
-4°llMent, after which the Court adjourned.

A suicide of an extraordinary character, which has
carried desolation into the bosom of a family honourably
known in the mercantile circles of Paris, was committed last
week by a young man named L-----, scarcely 20 years of
age, engaged with his father in business, who was remark-
able for his gloom and melancholy. A short time ago the
father of this young man underwent a dangerous surgical
operation, the result of which appeared to be looked for
by the son with the great est anxiety. On Tuesday last,
the operation having been performed with the most per-
fect success, L-- fell upon his father's neck and em-
braced him in the most tender and affectionate manner. Im-
mediately afterwards he left the house in a sudden manner. A
few hours elapsed without his being missed, but one of the
clerks having got up into a part of the premises used as a
warehouse, was horror-stricken to behold the son of his em-
ployer hanging from one of the rafters of the roof, perfectly
inanimate. At his feet there was a pool of blood, and in his
side, near the region of the heart, a deep wound, from which
the blood was still flowing ; near him ky a pistol, recently
discharged. The unhappy young man had written on the
wall with charcoal, that tired of life he bad long resolved
on self-destruction, but had postponed the execution of his
project until he should be quite sure that his father was
out of danger. When discovered he had his feet in a
bucket, and a board fastened to his back. A piece of paper
was afterwards found in the apartment, on which he stated
that his reason for placing his feet in a bucket was to
prevent the blood from running on the floor, and the object
of the board was to prevent the ball from entering the wall
in the event of its passing through his body ! All surgical
assistance was found useless, as the ball had passed through
the heart,

CORONERS' INQUESTS.

DESPERATE SUICIDE.—Last night an inquest was held
at the Kean's Head Tavern, Russell-court, Drury-lane, be-
fore Mr. Higgs and a respectoble jury, on view of the body
of Mr. Joseph Jeffereys, aged 57, for many years one of
the box-office keepers of Drury-lane Theatre, who commit-
ted self-destruction by cutting his throat with a carvincr-
knife. The witnesses spoke to the deceased's low depressed
state for months past, attributable to constitutional causes,
after which the Jury returned a verdict—" That he de-
stroyed himself while in a state of temporary mental de-
rangement."

MELANCHOLY SUICIDE OF A LADY FROM DISAPPOINTED
AFFECTlON.—Yesterday afternoon an inquest held at the
Buffalo's Head Tavern, New-road, Marylebone, before Mr.
Stirling and a most respectable Jury, on view of the body
of Mrs. Mary Stagg, a maiden lady, aged 43, who com-
mitted suicide by swallowing oxalic acid and laudanum.

Mrs. Elizabeth Bather, a widow lady, residing at No. 7,
Charlton-street, Fitzroy-square, said that the deceased had
been promised marriage by a Mr. Stringer, who had since
been united to a young woman. She appeared to be deeply
concerned at her affections having been played with.
Mr. Edward Burnard, surgeon of the infirmary, stated
that the deceased died on Saturday evening about six
o'clock from the effects of the poison. Before her death
the deceased acknowledged having swallowed two ounces
of oxalic acid and sixpenny worth of laudanum.
Some of the friends of Mr. Stringer stated that the de-
ceased had laboured under a delusion in supposing that an
offer of marriage had been made by Mr. Stringer, nothing
of the kind having occurred.

Verdict —" That the deceased poisoned herself whilst
in a state of temporary derangement."
The deceased was respectably connected.

closing day (for the season), on Wednesday, at the Archery
Grounds, Bayswater. Several prizes were shot for ; the most
successful archers were Dodd (their Lieutenant), Drury,
Betty (their Captain), Chieslie, and Hardy. The competi-
tion seemed to excite much interest amongst a numerous as-
semblage of spectators and friends.

PIGEON SHOOTING.

Mr. Bowden, the spirited proprietor of the Chalk Farm
Tavern, yesterday gave a very superb gun by Manton, to be
shot for. The match was open to all England, but handicap-
ped by distance. There were 13 members, at one guinea
each, charge limited to two ounces, seven birds, and 25. yards
rise to those who have won public prizes. The birds, supplied
by Barber, were beautiful, and the wind being high, the match
must be considered as most excellent. Mr. Withers, Mr. Wil-
liamson, and Mr. Bowden each killed six of their birds ; the
latter, from his style of killing, perfectly eclipsing the crack
shot, Groom, who missed three of his birds ; indeed, this gen-
tleman has been very unfortunate lately. In shooting the ties
off, Mr. Williamson killed five, Mr. Withers four, and Mr.
Bowden three.

THE MARKETS-(THIS DAY).

CORN EXCHANGE.

The supplies of Grain and Flour still continue moderate ;
but many vessels with Grain being shortly expected, the
buyers this week have manifested groat disinclination to pur-
chase. Wheat may again be reported ls. to 2s. per quarter
cheaper than Monday for most descriptions. Barley
also is rather lower. Beans and Peas are unsaleable
as the duty on foreign is becoming low. Oats have expe-
rienced a heavy sale since Monday, and hardly maintain that
day's prices. Flour is unvaried.

ERLE V. ORBELL.

This was an action to recover compensation in damages
for assault and battery. The defendant pleaded not guilty,
and also that plaintiff committed the first assault, to which
there was the usual replication. The plaintiff was a solici-
tor, and the defendant a horse-dealer, both residing at Rom-
ford. The parties made bets at the races at Chelmsford.
The plaintiff went, in company with a gentleman named
Robertson, to defendant, to pay the bet which he had lost.
The defendant began, after some little time, to abuse Mr.
Erie for being concerned in a former lawsuit against him,
when the assault took place. The Jury found for the plain-
tiff, with 10/. damages.

PREROGATIVE COURT, DEC. 8.
Among a mass of other formal business, the Court de-
creed that, " In the goods of Miss Vaughan, late of Man-
chester-square, deceased," a fac-simile probate should pass
to the will and codicil annexed, in which legacies were be-
queathed to the amount of 130,000/., and to which a pe-
culiarity was attached, viz., that it bore no date, and that
no mention was made of either an executor or a residuary
legatee.

AQUATICS.
SCULLERS' WAGER BETWEEN WATTS AND KIPPING.—The
match of yesterday unfortunately inflicted another disappoint-
ment upon the admirers of this sport. Indeed, the idea of a
scullers' wager in December does not appear to be strictly
within the regular order of things. There is a wonderful dis-
parity in the weight and physical power of the men, and it was
almost folly to back Kipping against Watts, admitting the odds
of 121. to 101. were given by the latter. There was every
thing equal as to the boats. Watts had that of Mr. Laxton
of the Leander, and Kipping the black boat built for Mr. Col-
quhoun, for his contest against Mr. Wood for the silver scull's
wager. At half-past one both men started, and Kipping had
canvassed the black boat, in order to avoid the wash, which
was immense. Watts had the station on the Middlesex shore,
and on the start being ordered he was very tardy, Kipping
having the lead well. Watts was gaining on him at the Horse-
ferry, and Kipping made him hug the shore very closely.
Watts made a desperate push, and Kipping held his scull under
his adversary's stem. The two " shells" came together.
Kipping sat over to hindward in his boat to keep her up, and
when Watts got off his adversary shipped about two pailsfull
of water on the larboard side. Kipping still rowed on, and
Watts shot the point to Tuggy's mill beautifully; Kipping fol-
lowed, but swamped in the attempt, and as his boat sunk be-
neath him he was helped into his cutter. Watts continued at
his leisure, and arrived at Putney without any accident. There
were two eights out, as well as the Club boat of the Leander.
There were but few spectators. Several wherries were there,
but principally manned by Watermen. Kipping rowed with
determined 'game, but he was overmatched. Betting at the
start was 2 to 1 on Watts.

FINE ARTS.

e have just been favoured with the sip,ht of a
portrait of Lord John Russell, engra►•ed by Bromley
from a painting by Hayter. It is an admirable like-
ness, indeed, by far the best we have yet seen, of the
Noble Lord, and is not less remarkable for the ease
and elegance of its attitude. His Lordship is repre-
sented as holding schedule A. of the Reform Bill in

his hand—a memento peculiarly pleasing to the Tories,
who, we have no doubt, will be among the chief pur-
chasers of the portrait. As an engraving the work
possesses high claims to notice. Messrs- Hodgson
and Graves are the publishers.

NORWICH FESTIVAL-.TUESDAY.

It was in the year 1824 that the first great Musical Festival
was held it this ancient and picturesque city. The immense
success attending the experiment has caused its repetition
every three years, and last meeting, in September, 1833, hay..
jag been in a more than ordinary degree triumphant in ics re-
sults, both as to fame and finance, the Norwich amateurs have
again entered the field, and the series of entertaiments com-
mence this night.
The arrangements for this splendid affair are on the grandest
scale, and the musical arrangements deserve the higest cam_
mendation. The Norwich Festivals have acquired consider-
able reputation from the circumstance of the directors having
invariably introduced for the first time to the notice of the
musical world some work of classical pretensions and beauty.
There will be no shrinking from this task on the present occa-
sion, and Mozart's " Requiem" will be produced in an entire
form, as an English Oratorio.
A grand rehearsal took place yesterday morning, in St.
Andrew's-hall, where all the musical performances and the
fancy ball will take place.
The attendance is anticipated to he very numerous, from the
number of tickets already disposed of. Several families of
distinction are expected to arrive this day. On Lablache's
journey to this city he travelled in a large post-chaise, having
found the doors of the coaches too small for his convenient
egress and ingress. At one of the places where he changed
horses he stepped out of the machine to enjoy the luxury of a
stretch of his ponderous body and limbs. The innkeeper
came out at the door, and, after staring with astonishment at
Lablache, he turned round, and gave a most desponding look
at the skeletons of the fresh pair of horses, one of which hap-
pening not to be blind, must also have caught sight of the le-
viathan it was destined to draw ; for it shrunk instinctively
from its work, and was with some difficulty harnessed. The
landlord at length " smiled a smile," and, on going up to
Lablache, said, " Had you not better ace a hextra pair of
osses?" This was duly translated to the great buffo, who
coolly replied, " Ce n'est pas necessaire." The refusal was
explained to the landlord, who again urged his " plea, for
humanity's sake ; and, meeting with no success, shouted out,
as the chaise was driving off, " Next time you come into this
here country bring two Helephants with you, for d—n my
hies if I'll serve you with cattle." Another grand rehearsal
takes place this morning.
London, England, 1836-09-21

politics. There is no other solution of the conduct of thosg
who busied themselves in bringing about the result: nothink
else could be predicated of the act►vity of Sir George Cler f
in the Commons—of the Duke of Buccleuch and the Earl o
Rosslyn in the Peer:.
It is as regards the House of Lords, the beniticent genius of
private legislation—not as regards any party, or pretence of
opposition or delay, locally—that we notice this case. Parties
in Dundee may quatTel ; they may never agree ; there may be a
new Bill every session the next twenty years, and for each session
a new plan. Such considerations formed no ground of the
Lords' decision in 1836. The strongest case for passing the
Bill, a Bill, almost any Bill this year, was made out. Not
one witness against it was examined. After hearing a one-
sided speech of the opposing counsel, abruptly finished with a
view to the vote on seeing the balance of Tory Members pre-
sent, the tutelary and veracious Peers came to the resolution,
that " the allegations of the preamble" established either by
admission or by the clearest evidence, " hare not been proved,"
and therefore they " have not proceeded further in the consi-
deration of the 13:11."
The reasons, or no reasons, that served to this end in 1836,
are likely to exist as long as Parliamentary legislation in local
or private business.
