MORTALITY OF THE METROPOLIS.—The total num-
ber of deaths, from all causes, registered in the metropolis
for the week ending Saturday, June 20, was 808. The
deaths front diseaseduring the week amounted to 779, show-
ing a decrease of three, as compared with the week preced-
ing, in the number of deaths from disease.
DEATH OF THE REV. DR. Moonn.—We have to an-
nounce the death of the Rev. James Moore, LL.D, vicar of
the opulent and extensive parish of St. Pancras, which took
place on Friday, at his residence in Gower-street, after hold-
ing the living for nearly half a century. The demise of the
rev. rector, who is stated to have been in his 82d year, was
announced to the parishioners by the tolling of the bells of New
St. Pancras, and those of the various district churches, and
as a mark of respect to his memory all the churches on Sun-
day last were hung with black cloth. Dr. Moore has been
in bad health for some time past, and unable to perform any
public religious duties, occasioned, it is believed, from the
effects of a paralytic stroke, with which he was seized whilst
preaching at the New Church four or rive years ago. Not-
withstanding his affliction, the Rev. Gentleman preserved his
mental faculties, and at the peliod when the metropolis was
agitated about the white surplice question, and other alleged
innovations, he issued his prohibition to all the local clergy
under his control to indulge in them, and two curates were
dismissed for disobeying the order. The nominal value of
the living, which is the gift of the Dean and Chapter of
St. Paul's, is 1,910/., but there are other advantages per-
taining to it. It is rumoured that either the Venerable
Archdeacon Wile or the Rev. Thomas Dale, Lo:h of whom are
canons of St. Paul's, will have the presentation conferred on
them.

COLLISIONS AT SEA.—It appears from an official
docum, ut just presented to Parliament, that there were last year 454

last, the number was 150. _

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE
NEWCASTLE RACES.—TunsnAv.
The weather, though proverbially wet during the New-
castle race week, was never remembered so bad as it was all
Monday night, and the greater part of today. Shortly
after ten o'clock the neighbourhood was visited by." terrific
thunder-storm, attended with vivid flashes of lightning, and
torrents of rain, which continued for several hours; and the
effect of which was to render the roads almost impassable on
foot. It was fine for two or three hours in the forenoon, but
before the time for repairing to the race course, the rain came
down again in such a manner as to deter many persons from
venturing out. This had a serious effect upon the at.
tendance, which was the thinnest we ever witnessed. The
weather was indeed such, and the state of the course arising
therefrom so dangerous, that it was deemed advisable to de-
fer the Maiden Plate race till the following day, an act,
almost as much of necessity as prudence, after what had oc-
curred in the North Derby and Hunters Stakes, in both of
which races two horses fell. The betting was extremely
flat, and nothing at all was done upon future events.
The sports commenced with—
The Produce Stakes of 50 sovs. each, for two-year olds.
