EDINBUrIiGET, JAN. 7.—An eleglnt silver cup,
of the value of twenty guineas; with the follow-
ing inscription, has been presented, by the inha-
bitants of Whitehaven, to Andrew Carr, a sea-
man, who greatly distinguished himself in res-
cuing a female passenger from a vessel wrecked
off that port, during the late storm :

" This cup is present, l to, •Andrew Carr, of .Whi teh aven,
mariner, by his fellowTownsuien, for his intrepid and humane
conduct, in plunging into the sea, at the risk ,or his life, and
rescuing 'a female from tht Wreck of the sloop Nellyand.
Betty, 4fter_the vessel was deserted by the crew, at Redness
Poiiit,Uear Whitebaven, on the 16th of Dec. 1314."

.On Friday. 3-e:en n Peter Hepburn, a youth
of 18 years of age, who was a student at the Perth
Academy, while shooting in the neighbourhood
of Broxden, was unfortunately killed by the acci-
dental discharge of his gun. - As no person was in
company with him, it is not, known what cause
occasioned the accident':. lint let the cause be
what it might„ its melancholy effect should be a
Warning to youth of the danger of using fire-arms,
without t!iat -caution Which they. can learn only
by- the example of persons who are more expe-
rienced in managing them.

A melancholy accident occurred near Hender•
land, in the parish of Meggat, and county of
Peebles, on the 30th ult. Three children of a
shepherd on that farm, going from their father's
house to
_witness: a' matrimonial ceremony, in
crossing an adjoining burn, , were all blown in by
a violent gust of wind, and carried down the cur-
rent. The father was near the spot at the time,
ra►► to their assistance, and brought out one, and
laid it, upon the bank, and then another, and fol-
lowed the third a considerable way, which he also
succeeded in bringing out ; but on his return back
with this last, to the place where the others were
left, he found them both without appearance of
animation, and every attempt to restore them was
in vain. The third is still alive; and it is hoped
will soon recover.

HERRING FisnErtY.—Tbe total number of yes-
,sels cleared outwards for the Fishery, not'on the

143,607,1.. •.The number entered inwards in the
same period, not on' the. tonnage bounty, was
756 ; - and the number of barrels, 64,363. The
number 'of bitsses,fitted out for the deep sea fishery
was 19 ; aind the number of barrels, 3219.

SPOR.TING—Thcre are fifty-six North Country horses en-
tered foi the ensuing St. Leger Stakes at Doncaster. Sir W.
Maxwell's colt Filhe da Put xis the first favourite • betting 10
and 11 to 1 against him at York. The Duke of 'Hamilton's

LONGEVITY IN Tag FEATHERED
Wednesday the 4th inst. a goose, in the parish of
Titchfield, died at the adanced age-of sixty -four
years, and the year before last she laid five eggs
and -hatched five goslings, one of which is pre-
served as a curiosity, being the offspring of so
aged a mother.

The Young Chicken -and .the Bellman.,—The
" Beaman" of a certain town in Totmonslow
North, having lent his audible voice on three seve.,
ral occasions to publish the fame of this redoubted
hero of pugilistic celebrity; called as many times
for remuneration for his labours, but in vain.
Complaining to a neighbour that be could not
get his money, he was advised to take it out in
workmanship.
Yesterday morning, at nine-o'clock, a dreadful
'accident happened in consequence of Mathew's
Croydon coach overturning, opposite Cross-street,
Newington. - The horses set off full speed.with
the pole of the coach; the coachman being en-
entangled in the reins, is so shockingly mangled
and cut about the head that his life is despaired
of. Several outside passengers were dreadfully
bruised ; one Gentleman had his- leg broke ; and
another, in consequence of part of the coach fall-
ing on his. bead, presented a shocking spectacle.
The horses were stopt in the Westminster-road,
with all their knees broken and very much cut.
Mr. GODSALL, a resnec:able farmer of Bentley
Heath, met with a - fatal accident, while •accom-
panying his team, between Solihull and this town,
early on Wednesday morning last. It appears
that this unfortunate Gentleman, in erideavouring
to.pull aside his horses for the purpose of letting
the Crown Prince Coach pass' by hint, the reflec-
tion from the lamps of which had,frightened the
leader, was throWn to'the ground ; and whether
the bruises he received proceeded from the coach
pasiing over him, or from the horses, is not
known, but they were of so shocking a descrip-
tion, that after.
.languishing in great agony for
upwards of twelve hourS, he expired.,—(Biiming-
hainHerald, Jan: 9.)
On Wednesday morning last, George Nicklin;
groom to Viscount ANsotc, was found drowned in.
the lock of the Trent and Mersey Canal at Hay-
wood. He had passed the preceding evening at Hay-
wood, at 'the house of a friend, where he had drank
rather freely, and on his return, owing to the
darkness of the night, missed his way and fell
the lock, which is only a 'few yards from the
road.

ARO*ATIC PAINT.—At this damp season of the
year, the merits of the Aromatic Taint may be
best appreciated; the Proprietor pledging himself_
that it will even now answer the purpose of anv
family, whose house requires painting; as the
apprehension generally (and formerly justly) en•
tertained of encountering the lengthened effects
of the deleterious effluvia incident to common
'paint in winter, ha's subsided in many families
who have used, and are now using this quickly
drying and innoxious preparation. Houses may
be,, and are now, inhabited during the operation,
without injury or inconvenience to' the inmates;
and so'nte of. the most distinguished a`mOngst the
Nobility and Gentry honour it with their patron-
age, in which number is the Earl of Winchilsea,
whose town house is in this late, season of the
year beautifying with the above durable and inno-
cent composition, "which may be had in jars (of
all dolours ready prepared for use) at the Colour
Works, Old-street-road, and at No. 24, Brydges-
sttect, Covent-Garden.—N. B. Orders from any
part of 1::e kingdom P:.omotlY executed.
