P. J. Da LOUTHERBOURG, Esce—We feel much
regret in announcing the deatli of this admirable
At tist and truly estimable man. He had been so
long in this country, that he might bo-almost con-
sidered as a native; he was so in his habits and his
principles. His excellence as a Landscape Painter
deserves the highest panegyric. He looked at Na-
ture through a warm imagination, and hence some-
thves gave a glow and richness to the scenery which
he represented, that appeared gaudy and extrava-
gant in the eyes of a cold critic ; but where he con-
tented himself with a. close and exact representation,
nothing could be more faithful, more animated, or
mote beautiful, than the productions of his pencil.
He was equally skilful in the repteSAnation of
bold, grand, and stupendous scenery, as in that of
an ordinary and rustic cast. He was particularly
excellent in cattle, and all the anin»ls that are con-
nected with ordinary life, and his works were ge-
nerally enriched with objects of that description,' as
well as with human figures, which he sometimes
represented in the common pursuits of life, often
in situations that indicated a, strong sense of hu-
mour, and alwr-ys with appropriate chairacer.—
Though a foreigner, ail his human figureS are, in
countenance as well as manners, completely English;
a circumstance very. rare among foreign Artists,
and, perhaps peculiar to him and the late Mr. ZOF-
FANI. .Mr. Da LOUTHERBOURG, we believe, was
a native of Switzerland. He lidd been upwards of
forty years in this country, and we- hell in great
esteem by the best characters' for the uniform pro-
priety of his conduct, as well as. for his extraordk
nary abilities as an, Artist. To eblige his friend
p Gat:nick, he enriched a drama, intitled The Christ-
mas Tale, with scenery painted by himself, and in-
troduced such novelty and brilliancy of effetl, as
formed a new sera in that species of art. -He had
been many years married to a beautiful and amiAde
English Lady, who has now to lament the loss of
a protector, who was equally well qualifid to en-
dear domestic life, as to excite public admiration.—
By the death of this Gentleman, which took place
• -Wednesday morning at his house on Hammersmith
Terrace, there is a -vacancy in the Royal Academy.

BRAIIAM, it seems, is engaged for a few nights at
the I4cenw, atter the Lent season, and is to wake
his first appearance in a new' Opera, the Author of
which is not known.

HIGH TIIIIASON.—CurdeII and Smith, two of the
seamen who were tlied some time ago, at the Spe-
cial Session, held in Hot semonger-lane oq a clinge
of-High Treason at the Isle of France, and found
guilty, are ordered for execution on Monday next.
Macfarlane, Quigley, Armstrong,- Parker, and
Tweedel, who, for the like_otrence, were ti ied at the
same time, and found guilty, have received the
Royal pardon.

PUGILISM.--Yesterday morning a pitched battle I
Was fought on Epping Forest, near Loughton, be-
.tween two young and powerful men, the one a car- '
ter, named Morton, the other Joseph Evans, a car-
penter, for 51. a side. The combatants, attended by
their seconds, met at six o'clock, and immediately
atter a. ring had been formed, the parties set-to,
xt:ith great spirit and seeming resolution on both
sides, They exchanged repeated severe body blows-,
when, during the second round, the former seemed
rather shy of his antagonist, having received two
knock-down blows. Odds were three to two in
favour of Joe, Evans, when, in the third round, the
former appeared quite roused, and stuck close to
his antagonist, whom he repeatedly knocked down,
till at. length Evans appeared so much exhausted
and brui-ed, as not to be able to stand. After a
contest of 53 minutes real hard fighting, the battle
terminated in favour of Morton. A great number
of bets were depending upon the issue.
DEVIL'S TREE. There is a tree, called the
Devil's Tree, which grows in America ; its fruit,
In a state of maturity, is elastic; and when dried
by the heat.of the sun, noisily splits, and bursts
forth its grains. To this sport of nature the tree
owes its name, for at the moment of bursting, the
effect of a piece of artillery is produced, the noise
of which succeeds rapidly, and is heard tolerably
far off, If this fruit be transported before it is ripe,
to a dry place, or exposed on a chimney-piece to a
gentle heat, it will have the same effeti, and pro-
duce the same phenomenon.

The Lady of the gallant Sir SYDNEY SMITH opened
her newly fitted-up residence in Albemarle-street
(the residence of the late Sir JOHN Atis-ranTripa,)
on Wednesday evening, with a Rout and Card-party.
Seldom has more real tast,- been displayed than was
exhibited 4,n the above night. The suite of three
drawing-rooms were magnificently furnished,; crim-
son and gold were-appropriately chosen to decorate
the walls. One room represented a l'inkish tent, or 1,
state marquee, in which were suspended the trophies
of viaory, i.,e. flags taken from the French by Sir
SYDNEY, at Acre, and other places in Egypt. There
were other memorial; of the invincible valour of that
Offietr, particularly the colours of a Spanish ship of
the line, taken soon after the commencement of hos-
tilities between us and that unfortunate country.—
Every apartment was brilliantly illuminated by Gre-
pian lamps and chandeliers ; likewise chrystal and
other lustres, or multi candelabras, &c.- The library,
dining-room, and breakfast-room, on the ground-
floor, were also illumined by wax-lights, and trans-
parent alabaster vases. The company began to ar-
rive at nine o'clock; about eleven the looms were
filled ; and at hall-past two the party broke np.

rOR'OED NOTES.-Forged .notes, of one pound,
are in circulation, with the name of J. Vautin sub-
scribed: they are not ill executed on the whole;
but the face of the woman. and, the word London,
are badly done : the orb on the -crown appears like
a tassel ; the paper is harsher than the -Bank note,
and they. may be detected by the words one and
Bank of England not appearing in the water-mark.
They are dated the 3d of December, 1811, and the
part WhiCh is'printed in the true note is imitated in
engraving in the false one. There is an imitation of
the waved lines used in the Bank-notes.

A shocking instance of barbarity lately took place
near Dunbar :—A young woman, who had an
illi-
cit conneetion with a young tnan in the neighbour-
hood, was delivered.of a Child, which she kept con-
cealed for two days in the kitchen, and afterward;, to
avoid deeaion, had thrown it away, cut . and
mangled in different piec s ; a boy, while herding,
found one of the legs, which appeared-to have been
broke through a little below the knee joint, and the
flesh wholly torn away ,from the upper part ; the
mother was coming past train Dunbar at the lime
the boy found it, who spewed it to her, and she de-
sired him to bury it. She immediately absconded;
and has since been seen ar Dunse, it i 4 supposed on
her way to England. The trunk was found in a
barn near the house where she resided ; and what
is remarkable, a carrion crow had got one of • its
arms, torn off from the shoulder, and was in r he ad
of flying away with it, when it let it fall close by
the father's side, who happened at the time to be
ploughing. The head has not yet been found. Mr.
Sawyers, Town-clerk of Dunbar, made every exer-
tion to detect the woman whed he heard' of the cir-
cumstances. A precognition was taken, a search
made, and two officers sent in quest of her ; 'but
they were found on the road side, on their way
back, both intoxicated. The father of the child had
previously offered :her marriage. The DoMor who
inspeCted the parts of-the child, gave it as his opinion
that it had been full grown.
An ewe, the property of Mr. J. B. Stephen, of
Lewes, yeaned one day last•wer-k four very fine ewe
lambs, all of which are in perfeCt health and likely
to do well.
