HUNTING INTELLIQLINCE.

ROYAL ITUNT.—On Friday, soon after nine o'clock, the
Huntsmen and hounds arrived at Longford with the deer-cart.
About ten o'clock a fine deer was turned out of the cart for the
day's diversion ; the assemblage of sportsmen was numerous to
attend the last day's hunt. This deer was turned out in a large
field to the left of the Bath road, leading towards Drayton,
. and
took at first to the right with great swittness towards the Mag-
pies, taking to the left through the fields towards Hcttindon,
and crossed the Uxbridge road, went by Pinner to the right of
Watford, taking to the right across the inclosures by Harrow-
on-the-Hill, where many of the Sportsmen were obliged to give
up the chace. The deer kept running with great swiftness,
crossed the Edgware-road, and was taken at Kilburn Wells, 'to
the left of Hampstead, atter a very long day's sport. It was an
excellent opportunity for the London Sportsmen, to bring them
so near home, the deer taking that direction towards London.
Some of the Sportsmen had many miles to return home in the
dark; the Huntsmen and hounds, with their attendants, came
home through Windsor about half-past eight o'clock.

SPRING AND SIIELTONJ Trite PUGILISTS, BOUND

OVER, TO KEEP THE ,PEACE.

FATAL EvENT FROM Boxisu.--A pugilistic contest took
place on Brighton Race-hill, on Friday last, in the presence of
a numerous crowd of spectators, between a person named Dann,
a bricklayer, and one Smith, a sawyer. The latter was the hea-
viest man. The battle lasted upwards of an hour, and was truly
of a sanguinary description. The sawyer in the end was stunned
'by a tremendous blow pliteeti under the left car. He was borne
from the ground in a state of insensibility, and expired at about
four o'clock on Sunday morning. Dann is in custody'. Spring,
who is here for training purposes, and Shelton, as they seemed
busy in the ring, have undergone examinations before Sir DAVID
SCOTT, Bart. They are held in a recognizance of 1001. each
to keep the peace for one year, and a surety on both sides in a
Moiety oT the sum named must be found ere they regain their
liberty. Query—Will pot this restraint on Spring occasion the
battle fixed to take place between him and Neate to be post:.
Ironed, if not entirely superseded ?

Genuine Notice, Which is now exhibited in a
window at Trowbridg*:_

" We want a Cuple. of stayed peopell to come and leave
with us as the Women do work at home or a Widow Women
or a Maiden Women to lieve rent free. Enquire within No. 2,

The herring fishing in the Frith of Forth is
now about concluded for the season, and although 'the winter
was very stormy, it has been mote productive than for many
years. Fortunately for fishers, the herring-market at present
enjoys its full share of vivacity. The demand is very good, not
only from Ireland," but also from variousplaces on the Conti-
nent ; the herrings have, within this month, risen from 3s. to
4s. a barrel ; and there is every prospect that the oki stock will
be wholly, disposed of before the herrings make their appear.

AMEItICA.

CUBA.---Mr. CANNING, unasked, writes& letter
to the British Minister at Washington, stating
that it is not the intention of Great Britain to
avail herself of the troubles in Spain by seizing
on Cuba and orders this letter to be read to
our Government, but no copy given of it. H'e,
don't believe what he says. We have reason
to suspect that the British intend possessin4
themselves of Cuba:" peaceably if they can, or
forcibly if they must." That Island, indepen-
dent of its great value, will command the Gulf
of Mexico; it almost touches our soil. We
have, then, the British behind us in Canada, on
our left in Nova Scotia, and facing us in Bermuda,
and probably in Cuba. 'We shall be hemmed
in and surrounded if they obtain that impor,
taut Island ; it must be prevented. The Spa.,
niards in Cuba, who cannot reconcile them.;
selves to the dominion of the British Go-
vernment, had better declare themselves in-
dependent at once, and organise a strong govern..
meat of laws. wholesome and just, and means wilt
be found to guarantee their independence to them,
They inay expect co-operation from every inde-
pendent Government on this side the Atlantic,
and the alternative is worthy of being embraced.
We shall consider this matter more at length.----
(Nero York National Advertiser, March 1.)
THOMAS B. TOOKER, late master of the Bri-
tish schooner Hibernia, has arrived at New York'
in the ship Indian. Chief, He is the only sur-
vivor of the crew of the Hibernia, of Yarmouth,
Nova Scotia, which place be left on 27th of Oc-
tober last, and on the 29th, while lying to in a
heavy gale, the vessel was thrown on her beam
ends, when she was struck by a sea, and
all that were on deck were swept off.—
The rest, except himself and one man (who
escaped from the cabin), perished below. The
vessel immediately filled. Captain T. with a
penknife cut the lanyards of the forerigging,
when fortunately the mast went and the vessel
partly righted. They then lashed themselves
on the main boom, but. the sea breaking over so
violently, the other man perished in about half
an hour, Captain T. continued in this situation
from Monday until Wednesday, without being
able to get any thing from below. On Wednes-
day noon he was taken off by the brig George, of
Liverpool, and arrived at that port.

THE THEATRE.

CovENT-GUIDEN.—The Tragedy of Macbeth,
to the 'credit' of the public, attracted a nume-
rous audience last night .to this Theatre,
but the approbation which the performance in
general excited was by no means equally cre-
ditable to tie. public judgment. We must, how-
ever, make an exception in favour of Mrs.
OGILVIE, who, perhaps, was altogether the best
representative of Lady Macbeth which we have
seen for soma years. As it was her first attempt
before a London audience, or, for aught we know
elsewhere, and as it is a part of great diffi-
culty, her performance is entitled to much
commendation, and will probably deserve more
OR repetition. Her figure and face are well
qualified for the character. Her voice is clear
and musical, and her deportment is easy and ap-
propriate. We know nothing of this actress but
herappearance on the stage, to which, without
the consideration of its present state, we deem
her a valuable addition. We need not select any
parts of liar performance' last night, but we may
truly say, that altogether it was judicious and
impressive, and received a due tribute of well-
, merited'applause. We wish that we could give
iii% equally favourable report of the Macbeth of
the iNlAcatAbY ; but he has 64 SUPt so full" ,of
manner of Mr. litAN, . that his original
qualities are Dearly obscured in the imitation.
It is to be regretted that he has adopted
this manner, ; for,
~though successful in Mr.
IKEAN, it cannot appear to equal advantage in an
imitator. It is lamentable, however, that he
is not likely to rouse the a himself from this style, as
pplause which he excited chiefly attended
tint itt.ail 1118 adolllloll3 from the manner of Mr.
4EA.141. In One. respect he displayed an original
merit which ' deserves to be recorded. After
the second appearance of the Ghost of Ban-
q osi!o Mr. MAcREA)Y proposed the health of
ldeparted victim• in a faultering tone,
and with it sort of hesitation which strongly
indicated the impression which the phantom had
Made upon his mind, and the " compunctious visi-
tations" of a perturbed conscience. This action
appeared to uslo be a novelty and a strong proof
of critical acumen. We regret that we cannot, as
far
xtends, pay a more
as our humble judgment e
favourableassumption of one of
tribute to his the most difficult characters in the whole round
1 of the drama, and which, indeed demands the
highest qualities of theatrical genius. We saw
1, nothing in the rest of the Performers of such
striking merit as f A
to oemand commendation or
cmment.

THE PORTSMOUTH CAUSE.

COURT OF CHANCERY.—(Tius DAY.)
Mr. HEALD begged to call his Lordship's at-
tention to this case, having been informed that an
application had been made for the payment and
taxation of the costs. Having briefly noticed
what took place prior to the issuing of the Corn.
mission, he said, at that time it became im-
portant to appoint some person to conduct the
defence for Lord Portsmouth, who had never
seen the gentleman wbo had previously appear-
ed, and it was thought proper to continue Mr.
Francis.

The LORD CHANCELLOR said, if only the fair
and honourable expences were asked, he would
allow them ; but if the whole were asked, he
would not give consent, as there had beert put on
the record of the Court proceedings which should
not have appeared there.
Mr. HEALE, said Mr. Francis would not include
those expences, pursuant to his Lordship's intima-
tion. He, however, begged to say,that the family of
Lady Portsmouth had never interfered with the de-
fence before the Commission and Jury. Mr. Francis
having allowed any person to do so. Under
these circumstances, he submitted that one order
could embrace the whole of the case, which his
Lordship assented to, care being taken that the
Affidavits alluded to should not be charged in the
bill of costs.

Our title of General was once very strangely
mistaken, and by .no less a personage than the
King of Prussia, Frederic 11. It happened
thus A great intimacy and friendship, pri-
vate as well as political, subsisted between the
4ate Lord Ashburton (Mr. Dunning) and Colonel
Barre. They travelled to the , contineni toge-
ther, and chanced to arrive at Berlin or Potsdam,
(I forget which,) exactly at the time of a grand
review. Being particularly desirous of seeing it,
they found means to be presented to the King
on the very ground, as two Englishmen of die..
tinction, and Members of the British Parliament.
Colonel Barre as Colonel Barre, and Dunning as
the King's Solicitor General. Frederic knew
enough of Colonels and Generals to be caught by
the sound of suck titles, never dreaming that in.
this particular instance they were not equally
military. War-hohes, richly caparisoned, were
immediately offered to the English Colonel and
General, and of necessity accepted. The Colonel
rode like a Colonel, but the General no better
than any other Solicitor-General, and very un-.
like what the Prussian troops and Frederic him-
self had been accustomed to see in the field. The
horse besides on which he rode, being under the
same mistake as his royal master, was not sparing
of his military movements, to the no small em-
barrassment of his laze full rider, who being quite
unused to such action, had much difficulty to keep
his seat ; and in going • through the various ma-
meuvres, which he had no means of controlling,
affprded considerable amusement to the company
at large,"—(Heraldic Anomalies.)

POETRY.

THE SLEEPER ON MARATHON.
I lay upon the solemn plain, ,
And by the funeral mound,
Where those who died not there in vain,
Their place of sleep had found.
'Twas silent where the free blood gush'd,
When Persia came array'd—
SO many a voice had there been hush'd,
So many a footstep stay'd !
I slumber'd on the lonely spot,
So sanctified by Death !
I slumbeed—but my rest was not
As theirs who lay beneath.
For on my dreams, that shadowy hour,
They rose-the chainless Dead—
All arm'd they sprung, in joY, in power,
Up from their grassy bed.
I saw their spears, on that red field,
Flash, as in time gone by !
Chased to the seas, without his shield,
I saw the Persian fiy
I woke—the sudden trumpet's blast
Call'd to another fight:—
From visions of our glorious past,
Who cloth not wake in night ? F. H.
(From the New Monthly Moga.line for December.)
