• 'AN ELOPEMENT.—The topic of conversation in
the Libraries yesterday was a breach in a unatii-
moilial contract, and an elopement. The parties
have already claimed notice—we allude to thc
family of Mrs. MARY ANNE CLARKE. The cir-
cumstances arc as follow 'young 'man, who
in a few months will become possessed' of 50,0-00/.
accidentally saw Misa MARY ANNE (the Lady who
was lately arrested by mistake), 'at a Library at
Broadstairs, and fell desperately in love with her;
so much so, that he declared, at the first interview
with the mothe', that he should die, if he did not
possess her ere Christmas. Lie professed honour-
able. intentions, and with the consent of a third
party, he commenced his suit. When all matters
iverc in a train of forwardness., the capricious
youth suddenly absented himself. Ou inquiry, a
discovery, fatal to the hopes of Miss CLARKE,
took place. Mr. M. eloped on Thursday last with
a handsome giri he accidentally saw at St. Peter's.
(illargate, Oct. 14.)

Boxrtio„—A most ssngninary battle was fought
early yesterday morning, in Bornhaea Meadows,
Umbham, between a Milkman named
Henderson, and James Bright, a farmer, for
ten guineas aside. • The subject of altercation
was a young widow, who keeps an alehouse in th`e
neighbourhood. Neither of the men possessed
science except that of.. giving, and whieb-...was
administered in a most astonishing degree. The
first round was obstinately contested for five
titillates, when the milkutan was knocked clown.
The second was as gallantly contested as
more
is
possible to conceive. The men exchanged more
t ban a dozen flush hits, without going .down. The
round lasted I I minutes, and a mutual. separation
-took place, as both were hit tri a St-km! still.—
Seven other rounds were fought, and there was not a
glimpse of sight. in either ; • but Bright was at
length compelled to resign.—Cooper, who beat
1110tineUX in Scotland, is matched to fight Doneily •
in Ireland, in a month, for fifty guineas. Donelly
was beat by Hall some time since, and is •a titan
of considerable power, but a bad: fighter.
MELANCHOLY AccineNTs.--7.WC lament to state
the fullowing melancholy accident, which hap-
pened off Woolwich yesterday :—The Pilot, Cap-
tain SANDERSON, sailed for Leith from Millar's
Wharf yesterday forenoon. Several Lathes and
Gentlemen went dow n in the vessel to see their
friends off. Captain ANDREW DAVIDSON, for-
merly of the Prompt Leith smack, went into a
boat front the shore, to assist a Mrs. CUMMINS
into the, boat ; the boat upset and both were
drowned, although every exertion sea§ made by
Captain §Asmeasox and the crew of the smack to
save them ; the boats an saved himself by getting
hold of the vessel's chains. What renders this
accident particularly distressing is, that the Lady's
hnsband (Captain Cusrsmrs, of the Army), was
on board the vessel, and could render no assist-
ance,

Last Sunday died, in the New cut, Blackfriars-
road, Mrs. MARGARAT PYE, in consequence of
the woundi and bruises received by being knock-
ed down and wheeled over, about a
.fortnight
since, by one of those numerous nuisances that
infest the foot-puths in the environs of the town—
a. baker's barrow.

The Gold and Silver Coin of France, in circu-
lation' before the 'Revolution, was stated by
NECKAR, and admitted by BURKE, to he 91 mil-
lions of pounds sterling ; if to this are added the
immense sunis drawn from other countries by Bun-
nnparte, we need not be surprised at the more
than princely riches of his Dignitaries, which now
are flowing into this Country through all chan-
nels, to be vested in our stocks. This eirciini-
stance atone, independently of the daily. and in-
creasing operations of the sinking fund, and the
large purchases by the Brokers,. cannot fail to
raise them considerably ; and we understand that
bets are made that Consols will rise to 75 before
Christmas if so, the value of all the stock Prizes
intli
is 1 stocka'tery will be increased 34 per Cent. as
the comtract made with Government at 56,
securing to the purchasers of Tickets and Shares,
all the advantage of the rise above that price ;
but as the three Prizes of 50,0001. the four
Prizes of 20,000/, may all be drawn the 7th of
November, an imtnediate purchase should be male-
to secure,
