TIIE

Co vExT-GARDEN.—This Theatre opened again
last night with the last new Comedy, entitled
Pride Shall Have a Fall. This Comedy was
very attractive last season, and its popularity is
ndt likely soon to subside. There is a portion
of intellectual power, as well as of broad hu-
mour, in the piece, which skews a mind far above
the ordinary standard of most modern dramatists.
The play too is well cast, and the performers in
general seem to be satisfied with their charac-
ters—a circumstance that at once renders justice
to the author, and heightens the entertainment of
the audience. The afterpiece was Brother and
Sister, an interesting little drama, which received
good support from the performers in general, and
in which the vocal powers of Miss PATON ap-
peared to peculiar advantage.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

HAMPTON RACES, 'WEDNESDAY,SF.PT. 29.

The beauty of the weather, and the promise held out of great
sport, attracted an attendance nearly as numerous as that of
yesterday ; nor did they return with their wishes and expects-
tuMs ungratified, the different Stakes, &c. being well con-
tested, and productive of general satisfaction. 14'e are happy
to add, that the day's sport was not interrupted either by acci.
dents or pickpockets, the former being prevented by. the good
management of Mr. Coombe, and the latter by the vigilance of
the Police. The following is an accurate account of the
sport :
The Kingston Stakes of lOgs each, for horses not thorough.
bred, did not fill.
The Walton Cup for ponies, not exceeding 13 hands, that
never won a 101. Prize, to carry Ost. and to be allowed 71b.

Six started each heat, but only three placed. Both heats
run in good style, the last won with difficulty.

WEYMOUTH.
Our late races afforded some good sport, and assembled a
large concourse of people, in spite of very unfavourable weather.
The Steward may have settled one or two points in a manner
the eligihleness of which was disputed, in spite of his desire
to meet the wishes of every body. But those acknowledged
the best judges present of what pertains to races, were unani.
mously in favour of the opinions acted upon, as furnishing a
precedent more propitious to the continuance of these desirable
' races which, since their establishment only a few years ago,
have been found so usefully to add to the attractions and popu-
larity of the place.

AUSTRIAN LOAN NEGOCIATED BY MR. N. M.
ROTHSCHILD IN LONDON.—The half-yearly divi-
dend on the said Loan, falling clue on Monday,
the Ist of November, will be paid on that and
every succeeding day (Sundays excepted) be-
tween the hours of ten and two. It is requested
that the dividend warrants, with a list thereof in
numerical order, may be left one day previous,
for the purpose of being examined.—New-court,
Sept. 29, 1824.
The children of the Military Asylum, Chelsea,
were last night permitted by his Royal Highness
the Duke of YORK to witness the representation
of The Battle of Waterloo, at DAVIS'S Amphi-
theatre. The house was excessively crowded ;
and as nearly 700 of the children occupied a con-
spicuous situation, the sight was extremely grati-
Ifying, and made an extraordinary impression on
the feelings of the audience. In the Review
scene, the beautiful little Band belonging to the
school appeared on the stage to join in the
marches ; and, at the conclusion, " God save the
King" was played and sung in the most impres-
sive manner. ,

CHATEAUBRIAND, since the return of the
BOURBON dynasty, has contributed to our Lite-
rary Fund, at one time 20 and at another 30
pounds. These are acts of commendable grati-
tude on the part of the Noble Viscount, for on re
ferring to the archives of this institution, we per-
ceive that when in absolute want himself, 1w
wr.s relieved by the Society under the name of
Briand.

When FOOTE was one day lamenting his grow-
ing old, a pert young fellow asked him what he would give to
be as young as he? " 1 would be almost content," said Foote,
" to be as foolish."

ANOLO.CIIINE3r CoLLEGE.—There is an In-
stitution at Malacca, called the Anglo-Chinese College, whi.h
is intended to promote the study by Europeans of Chinese Li-
terature, and the study of English by the native Chinese, with
the ultimate view of transferring to Eastern Asia, anti the islands
beyond It, the Literature of Europe.— The Anglo-Chinese
College is still in its infancy ; there are in it, as'students, about
20 Chinese youths, of front 10 to 20 years of age. The bite
Dr. Milne, an eleve of the London Missionary Society, was
the first Principal of the College, and he is succeeded by two
Gentlemen, whose names are Humphreys and Collie. Amongst
other voluntary subscriptions, we hear that a Gentleman, a
friend of literature, has given I,AOO/. to the College, together
with a valuable collection of upwards of 300 volumes to the
,library.

of considerable bulk. The only person in the house at the time
was an old man and his wife, who slept in one of the attics,
and who were in charge of the house. On Sunday morning,
when the old man got up, helound the hall-door wide open,
by which way the thieves had escaped. The old man also found
that a box belonging to himself, which stood in the pantry, had
been broken open,:and his watch, and a great part of hiswearing
apparel, stolen. Plank, the chief officer of Marlborough-street,
who was sent for to inspect the premises, Is of opinion that
the robbery was committed by. sonic persons well acquainted
with the house, and not experienced thieves, as no implements
of housebreaking were used, or any attempt made to force any
of the drawing.room windows, but the thieves went directly to
the only window that was unfastened, as if they knew the fact.
The pantry door, which was locked, was not forced open, but
lifted completely Wits hinges.
On the night of the 9th instant,, a great sire

the fire at three different points simultaneously,
led to the conclusion that malice, not accident,
was the cause. A beggar, who had been refused

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.
[ADJOURNMENT DAY.]

William Clifford, who was found guilty for an
assault on Mr. George Fox, came up to be dis-
charged on his own recognizance.

The Chairman (Mr. coNsT), addressing him-
self to the prisoner, said, I hope you are more
reconciled now than when you appeared here be-
fore. You were convicted for an assault, but the
Court has no wish to keep you in prison if yotz
can behave yourself.
Prisoner—My Lord, my object in refusing to
be tried at this Court was my wish to be tried by
my God and my King, those words I repeated
several times, and took them down in writing.
The CHAIRMAN—Those wor6 Were never put
to you ; you was asked in the usual form, b 4• God
and your country, and you pleaded Not Guilty.
The Court now is willing to set you at liberty ou
entering into your own recognizance of 201.
The prisoner insisted he had not Inds fair
trial, nor was justice done him, and if he entered
into his own recognizance, it was an admission of
guilt. flow was it possible for him to set up is
business in his own name after being robbed of
his property ?

Cll .t IRMA N-Then you are not content to enter
into recognizance.

Prisoner—Noyl have not had justice done me.
1-1-e-wns then ordered to be remanded, and be
brought up again the first day of next Session.

DREADFUL EFFECTS OF JEALOUSY.

Bour.orplE-Sun-MEn, SEPT. 26.—A dreadful
instance of the effect of jealousy has occurid here this morning.
It appears that, about two years since, a painter of the name of
Merchant, married a young woman of a neighbouring village,
to whom he had been for some time attached. He was a man
of industrious habits and excellent character, and his wife was
po,sessed of great personal beauty. They lived happily to-
gepier on the profits of his business, 'as a house-painter, un'il
the love of pleasure and a lively disposition led the wile
into an inattention to her domestic duties, for which she
was frequently reproved by% her husband. 'Ms led to
several bickerings, and at last to severe quarrels. Neither
husband nor wife were of the most patient temper, and the ten-
dencr to irritaiion on his pert was increased by a suspicion of
her fidelity. These suspicions in the end proved to be too well
founded, and discoveries were made, by which her criminality
with a soldier of the 'Veteran Battalion was established.—
The .remonstrances of the husband were in rain, and she
resisted ever attempt to break .off the connection with her
paramour. When all was found to he inefflecrive, she was
seta to her family, hut the infatuated husband could not
exist without her, and after a short time took her home
again. She renewed her intimacy with the Veteran, and
drove her husband to a state of almost desperation.—
It appeared, that on the night previous to the murder
she wits absent to a very late hour, and on her return, nearly at
four in the morning, she was heard quarrtlling violently with
her husband. No notice was taken of the circumstance, as it
was one of common occurrence, and as the noise ceased after a
short time. A woman who slept in the room underneath them
felt, 'soon after the cessation of the quarrel, something wet
dropping on her face, through the chinks of the .door, but
took no notice, as she fancied that water might have been
spilt in their chamber. When the alarm was subsequently
given, this woman was horrified on finding that her face and
bed-clothes were stained with blood. From thence it is hue-
gined that the act of murder was perpetrated when the quarrel
appeared to have been terminated. ft must have been sud-
denly effected, as no struggling was heard, or any noise to ex-
cite alarm, beyond the usual vehemence of the unfortunate
persons when disputing. Soon after seven o'clock, the owner
of the bailee was surprised on meeting Merchant on the stairs,
his fare and hands marked with blood. He had a bundle with
him, and was about leaving; • the house, when the landlord
stopped him and asked him what was the matter. The un-
fortunate man could melte no reply, but seemed like one la-
bouring; under some dreadful Anguish. The landlord forced
back to his own room, and on opening the door was horror-
struck on seeing the body of Alarchant's ill-fated wife lay...
ing across the bed—her throat cut and blood streaming from it
on the floor. " I have killed her," said the desperate man,
gnashing his teeth; and then attempted to force his way down
stairs. This was prevented by the landlord, who succeeded in
pushing him back into the room, the door of which he lock-
ed, while he himself ran to fetch the police. On the ar-
rival of the police in the Place des Victoreis, where the house
is, Merchant was seen at thawindow„from whence . he withdrew
on recognizing them. The officers then proceeded Op stairs,
and attempted to open the door, hut met some resilience. On
getting it at last free, they found the unfortunate nom writhing
in the last agonies of death on thegraund near ihe door, against
which he had fallen. He had, it would seem, teen so terrified
on seeing the police, that he took up the same razor with which
the murder of Isis wife was effected, and cut his own throat in the
.most ferocious and determined manner. Life was not extinct whea
the officers discovered his situation, and Blarchant was taken itt.
stantly to the hospitel,' where surgical assistance was Oven, but
the wretched man's fate was accomplished,and he died man hour.
Judging front all the eirctimstances of the case, there can be no
doubt that the poor man was worked up by jealousy 'to a state
of fury, to which the wicked woman to whom he had the Ws,
fortune to be united fell the first sacrifice. The husband, by
all account, deserved a better end.

An Inquisition was taken at the White Horse,"
in liricit.lane. St. Luke's, before ThomAo f3xtnt.trto, Es'.
Coroner, on the body of an infant, aged two months, son oi
Stiles, a watchmaker. It appeared from the evi.
denee of the father, whose grief and distress during his ex.
amination were of the most disconsolate appearance, that
his wifc, win curries on the trade of a green-grocer and fruit-
erer, rose at an early hour to go to market to putt hate stock
for the shop, lenying the infant in bed. On their return front
market, he went up stairs to the room which they slept,
which he also used as his workshop, and not being aware of
the infant's situation, proceeded to put it in proper order for
commencing his business, for which purpose he turned up the
bed, which was in a 'press bedstead. in about twenty minutes
afterwards, as the family were sitting below nt breakfast, he
desired one of the eldest of the children, of which there arc six
surviving, to go up stairs and open the window. His wife
deiired that it might not be opened just then, as the child was
in the bed. In the agony of the moment, excited by the aud.
den consciousness thus awak.n2d of Cie t on tequer ce of his nil,
guarded act, he exclaimed, ‘• Good God then I have killed
my child !" To rush up stairs to extricate the infant from itr
shocking situation was the work of an instant, and surgical aid
was as promptly procured ; hot too late, for the vital spark
had been extinguished by suffocation. Verdict—" Accidental.
Death."
