MILENDID FETE AT BUNNY

AUGUST*am 3.—On this day. one of the most gratifying
trinttes of respect was paid to the noble owner of this
ely domain, Lord Rancliffe, a tribute which must

Pr°n he succeeded in breakingdown the barriers of

eed. Unfashionable as the times were for Liberal
for,inintents, his Lordship came out as a full-length Re-
oCer, and sat in Parliament several sessions, retiring

the opponent of the cursed Corn-laws, as
as other monopolies.
in hiae dinner on this occasion was given to his Lordship

Baronial Hall, w3h its antique tower, on which

th its triumphal arch, the beauty of the scenery, and
4elenclid weather, and the hearty reception rich and poor
dat with on their arrival, all gave promise of a glorious
t,.13r. After rambling through his beautiful gardens and
pi°llrlds, the trumpet sounded for dinner, which took

Spectators was immense, and all the authorities of Havre

tioned at the two extremities of the course, about a mile
and

was won by the Belle Poule, the Commander of which,

DEATHS FROM ARDENT SPIRITS..—OR
turday
morning last, a most melancholy and painful sen.
cation was produced in this city, in consequence of its
being reported that two men had lost their lives from im-
poderate drinking of ardent spirits. On inquiry, we
found that this report was but too true, and that an
elderly
man, named Thomas Beadle, a • bricklayer's la-
i_)roourer, residing in the Barleycorn-yard, Walmgate, and
Olin Bailey,' a sweep, residing hi Hungate, both married
men, were the unfortunate victims.—York Courant.
THE

a trial for sheep stealing on Thursday last, the prosecu-
tor thus described the marks by which he identified his
sheep
:—" Whoy, sur, there was a tak and a awl, in the
near yur, and a awl, a slit; and a tak in the vurder.,,
This reply, of course, puzzled the Learned Judge, as well
t 4 tiles Counsel, and the former asked for an explanation ;
WitllPsS, who seemed much amazed at their want
c()lnpreheasicin in endeavouring to be more explicit
and intelligible, created Just the opposite effect ; and not
, word could be understood. The Learned Counsel,
flowever, with a little patience, at length succeeded in
bringing this elegent sentence into a comprehensible
