SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
WATERLOO-BRIDGE REGATTA.
The annual scullers' contest amongst the watermen
plying on the Surrey side of Waterloo-bridge, for some
prizes given by the inhabitants of St. John, Lambeth,
came off on Monday. The first heat consisted of C. Col-
lier (white), H. Caston (pink), T. Eyre (blue) ; and
the distance in this as in the other heats, from Waterloo-
bridge, round a boat moored off Maudsley's factory,
down to Corry's roads, and up to Waterloo-bridge to
finish. The first heat was won by white and pink. Im-
mediately after this W. Watts (green), H. Barrow (yel-
low), and C. Stevens (red), went away for the second
heat. It was won by Watts and Barrow. A little after
six, the two first men of each of the preceding heats
started for the third and grand heat. They went away
well together ; but after a few strokes Watts took the
lead, closely followed by Barrow, in which order they
came in, Watts winning by five or six lengths. Collier
did not row the entire distance. The match was very
indifferently attended.

LAMBETH FISHERMEN'S REGATTA.
A very pretty and. highly-interesting rowing and sail-
ing-match took place on Monday, amongst the very in-
dustrious and hard-working fishermen of Lambeth, who
work in peter-boats. The contest was for a purse of
sovereigns given by the ladies and gentlemen of St.
Mary, Lambeth, and the vicinity, and it was most nume-
rously attended. Just before four o'clock the following
took their places for the start off Goding's brewcty :
Favourite, 'l'. Dunkley, blue cross ; Lass of Gowrie, J.
Stubbs, blue; Mary Anne, James Grant, green; Brothers,
C. Miney, red ; Industry, It. Hearn, tri-colour ; King
of the Coblers, W. Hosier, red cross ; Surprise, T.
Hatherill, pink ; Brotherly Love, J. Webb, white ; Per-
severance, W. Darnham, yellow ; Happy-go-lucky, S.
Perry, red cross, white ground ; Success, J. Perry,
red star.

As they got under way the little fleet presented a very
pretty appearance, with their main and fore sails set.
The King of the Coblers took the lead, but lost it in
less than a quarter of a mile. The wind was easterly up
the reach of the water, and Happy-go-Lucky soon took
the first place, and the Lass of Gowrie shortly after took
the second. The distance. boat was moored off the new
Tivoli Gardens, in the upper part of Battersea, and
Happy-go-Lucky first rounded, followed by the Lass of
Gowrie, Mary Anne, and the Brothers. As the wind
had died away, the whole party took to their oars, and a
smart contest ensued between the three first boats. The
King of the Coblers came in first, Happy-go-Lucky se-
cond, the Brothers third.

NEWLY RECOVERED LAND:—Since the open-
ing of the new cut from Eau Brink to Linn, which took
place about twenty years ago, the old channel, which
was very wide and spacious, by which the waters of the
Ouse and its tributary streams were formerly conveyed
to Lynn, has, been gradually silting up, and much of it
has now become firm land, producing rich and flourishing
herbage. A few days since a portion of this newly re-
covered land (containing about 900 acres), which is now
embanked and fenced with live quick-set fences, and di-
vided into convenient pieces for occupation, was let by
auction, at the Globe Inn, Lynn. and the annual rental
obtained for it averages nearly 31. per acre. Calculating
upon this ratio, were an embankment of the Wash to
take place, the annual value of the land which would be
obtained by that undertaking we might reasonably esti-
mate at not less than 500,000/. At the last quarterly
meeting of the Lynn Town Council, Mr. F. Lane laid upon
the table a copy of a memorial presented to the Com-
missioners of Woods and Forests, Mitch 'memorial re-
ferred to the inclosure of the Great Level of the Wash,
and was accompanied with a letter, stating that the appli-
cation to Parliament upon that subject was intended to
be renewed in the next session.—Nerftli Times.
MOTHERLY Lovi.—Last among the charac•
teristics of woman is that sweet motherlYlOve with which
nature has gifted her : it is almost independent ofcold rea-
son, and wholly removed from all selfish hope ofreward. Not
because it is lovely, does the mother love her child, but
because it is a living, part of herself—the child of her
heart, a fraction of her own nature. Therefore, do her
entrails yearn over his wailings ; her heart beats quicker
at his joy: her blood flows more softly through her veins,
when the breast at which he drinks knits him to her.--

DINNER TO LORD VIVIAN BY
THE OFFICERS OF THE ROYAL ARTILLERY.

Lieutenant-General Lord Vivian, G.C.B.,—;Ci
G.C.H., on his health being drunk at a dinner given
to him by the officers of the Royal Artillery on Sa-
turday last, returned thanks in the following terms
Gentlemen—l feel it quite out of my power so
express as I could wish, and as I ought, my sense of
the very flattering and the very gratifying manner in
which you have received the toast my Noble Friend
Lord Bloomfield has been so kind as to propoSe ; the
painful circumstances under which we meet render it
peculiarly difficult. When I say painful circumstances,
fancy not that it is loss of power and of place, with the
pride and pomp that attach to them, that I lament.
Proud as I am of the distinguished office I have now bad
the honour for some years to hold, I could part with it
without a pang, and retire, after nearly fifty years of
uninterrupted service, to pass the remainder of my
days in the bosom of my family. The pain arises
from feeling that this is the last time I shall hare the
happiness of meeting, as the Master General of the
Ordnance, those I see a-ound me, with whom, in my
ufficial capacity, I have had so much satisfaction in act-
ing, and for whom, as friends, I have had so much rea-
son to feel the highest respect and esteem. But, gen-
tlemen, it is well sometimes to call to our assistance a
little philosophy, and especially so on an occasion of
this sort, when the feelinzs of the heart might other-
wise be too strong for the expression of that which it
would dictate, and overpower the tongue. I must have
recourse to the old proverb, and recollect that ' every-
thing is for the best in this world.' lam willing to be-
lieve the truth of this in my case ; I am certain of it
in yours. My career in life has been more fortunate
than I could possibly have hoped for or expected, I fear
I must add than I have deserved. I am fast falling
into the vale of years, and any energies, any powers of
body or of mind I may ever have possessed, are daily
and hourly becoming weaker and weaker. I cannot
but remember that the poet, when speaking of one of
the greatest men this or any other country ever had t,
boast of, has said that—

" ' Tears of dotage fell from Marlborough's eyes.'
And can I, bumble and comparatively insignificant in-
dividual as I am, hope to escape the feelings of my fel-
low man ? It must, alas! gentlemen, be the lot of us
all, and it is therefore, perhaps, happy for me that I
should be called into retirement before, in old age and
infirmity, I may have failed in the proper discharge c f
my dutie3—before I may have forfeited the good
which your reception of me on this occasion
shows me I have now the happiness to possess. In re-
spect to you, gentlemen, the change will, I have no
doubt, be an advantage. In my successor you will
have an officer with talents better qualifying him to fi 1
zhe high and important office aad carry on its duties
than I can hope to have shown ; with power and
ence superior to any that I have possessed, and cense-
auently stronger to support such measures as he may
think calculated for your benefit. The only point in
which I will yield to no man is in a sincere and heart-
felt desire to promote your interests. Gentlemen, it it.
low above six years since I have had the honour of
holding the distinguished office of Master-General of
the Ordnance. Before I was appointed to it, in the
course of my military service, frequent. opporturnf es
had been afforded me of being acquainted with the
-ervice of the Ordnance Military Corps—brave in the
field, and well disciplined at all times—l had learned
to entertain for them the highest possible opinion.
The experience I have had during the time I have been
at their head has not disappointed my expectations.
My command has been one, I may say, of unintcrrupt7d
satisfaction ; and if, gentleman, during that period it has
been in my power to render any service to the corp-.
it is only to their own good conduct, their own merits,
their own claim., and not to any favour on my part,
that they are indebted for it. Gentlemen, before I
conclude I must say a few words on professsonal subjects.
England is now at peace, and I trust' and hope may
long continue so ; but, as soldiers, it is our duty to he
ready for war. Throughout Europe improvements ate
taking place in the arms of every description
with which the forces of different nations are
supplied, and in the use of them. My Noble
Friend has referred to the circumstance of my
having given a better arm to the soldiers of
our own army ; in our heavy guns, also, I may add,
some improaeinents have been made since I have been
at the Ordnance ; but there is much yet to be done.
Watch, I pray you, the progress of such improvements
in other cot.ntries, endeavour to go ahead of them in
your own, so that shonld your services be required in
the field, the British Artillery may at all times evince
that superiority for which they have hitherto been
distinguished when called on to defend their Sovereign
and their country. Another point to which I must
refer is to that institution which, originating in the
zeal for acquiring information and
,promoting science of
some of our junior officers, and supported by some of
the seniors, has sprung up since I have been at your
head ; I consider it of great importance, net only to the
character of the corps, but to the country generally.
consider that out of it great advantage to science and
great credit to the regiment may ensue ; I have there-
fore encouraged, fostered, and cherished it ; and I hope
those around me and those who fellow me will continue
so to do. The circumstance of cfficers of the Royal
artillery being stationed mina)! parts of the globe—men
who have had a scientdic education, and arc conse-
quently able to benefit by the observations they may
have an opportunity of making—affords an advantage
that scarcely ar y amount of expense in the employ-
ment of civilians would er able' the country to ()Mail,.
Again, then, I say, let the same spirit which originated
this institution continue to maintain it ; it cannot hut
contribute ;till more to raise the estimation and cha-
racter of the corps, and it may be of infinite use to
science and the country generally. Gentlemen, I have
done, and in concluding I can only again assure you,
that wherever I go, whatever may he my fate, my heart
will he with you ; I shall ever feel the deepest interest
in the prosperity, the happiness, and the success of a
corps, over which I have had so mnch satisfaction in
presidinz, and from which 1 feel so much pain at
parting."

- On quitting the room Lord VIVIAN spoke as fol-
lows :—" Gentlemen, the time has now arrived when
I must say,' Good night '—when I must bid you farewell.
This is the last time, probably, I shall wear the uniform
in which I now appear; hat in laying it down I shall
not lay down that deep interest I must ever feel in the
corps to which it belongs. Gentlemen, my heart will
ever be with you. Your character, year honour, and
your prosperity will always E. dear to me. You w,ll,
I hope, allow me stall the honour of continuing a mere-
ber of your rnes, and allow me, as such, hereafter to
appear amongst you in a coloured coat. Farewell
and God bless you all."—Standard.

31AR Y LEBONE VESTRY.
At the meeting of the vestry of Marylebore on Sa-
turday, the Clerk to the Eoard intimated that he had
received the following letter from Lord Duncannon,
in reference to the recent appointment of Clerk and
Sexton to the parish :

" Office of Woods and Forests, Sept. 3, 1841.
" Sir—ln reference to the conversation I had with
the deputition of the Vestry last week, I beg to inform
you, that the Rev. F. Braithwaite has been appointed
by her Mjesty clerk and sexton of the parish of St.
Marylebone, under the 36th section of the Act 51st
George 111., to officiate by himself or his sufficient de-.
puty throughout the entire parish, which will include
St. John's chapel and burial-ground ; arid that it is not
the intention of her Majesty to appoint a distinct clerk
and sexton for the last mentioned chapel and burial-
ground, under the 41st section of the Act. I have
thought it right to make this communication, although
it be not required under the Act, the right of appoil t-
ment which her Majesty has exercised being absolutely
tested in the Crown, and not requiring the consent and
approbation of the vestrymen.—l remain, &c.

IYUNCANNON."

" Mr. C. Flood, Vestry Clerk."
The Report of the Committee which bad been di.
recited a few weeks since to cnmmunicate with Lord
Duncannon upon this appointment was then brought
up and read. It ran as follows :
" B'. Marylebone, Sept. 3, 1841.

" At a meeting of the Committee appointed to con-
fer with Lord Dnneannon on the subject of the recent
appointment of the Rev. F. Braithwaite to the dlice
of clerk and sexton, vacated by the death of Mr. Pau ;
present, Mr. Sapsford in the Chair, the Committee beg
to report that Messrs. Biers, Clipp, and Gomm, in
pursuance of a letter received from Lord Dun.
cannon's Secretary, attended at the cffice of Woods
and Forests on Tuesday, the 24th of August, and
had a lengthened interview with his Lordship in the
presence of Mr. Pemberton, the solicitor. The
deputation were anxious to ascertain to what ex-
tent, and under what section or sections of the
51st of Geo. 111., cap. 151, the appointment in clues.
Lion bai been made. They endeavoured to show his
Lordship and Mr. Pemberton that if the appointment
was confined to the 26th section of the Act, the vestry
had no desire to interfere ; but that if. it extended to
the 41st section, then the appointment was not valid
until the consent and approbation cf the vestry had
been obt tined thereto. Lord Duncannoa stated that
the appointment had not then been signed by her Ma-
jesty, and that he was unable to state how far the ap-
pointment extended, and under what particular secfon
or sections of the Act it had been made : but he pre-
sumed that the appointment was similar to the one
formerly made, and granted to Mr. Pau. As the re-
sult of the interview, his Lordship wished Mr. Pem-
berton again to examine the extent of the appointment
after which his Lordship promised to communicate with
the vestry on the subject.

" S. Stirs Foal), Chairman.
" .f. Gomm.
" H. BIERS.
" WILLIAM CLAPP."
The reading of this Report and the preceding letter
gave rise to a long discussion, in which Messrs. Biers,
Skinner, Eyre, and Glazier took part, and eventually it
was resolved that the Committee be requested to held
a further communication with het' Miijesty's Govern-
ment for the purpose, and with the view of obtainieg

a legal compliance on tho part of the patron of the ap-
pointment with the provisions of the Churches Act, 51
Geo. 111., cap. l5l.

1 ASSAULT BY POLICE-OFFICERS.
(From the Liverpool Times.)
Oa Saturday, Mr. Oliver Shannon, a publican and
master stevedore, residing in Norfolk-street, appeared
at the Police Court, to bring a charge of assault against
three police-constables. The case had been sent over
by the Watch Committee to Mr. Rushton.
Shannon stated that shortly after twelve o'clock on
the morning of Wednesday week, he left his house in
Norfolk-street, to see a friend on board the Carl ale
packet, which was lying in the Clarence deck, and
which was to sail about 4 A.M. Ile was accompanied
by Henry Dobson and Thomas Langley. Having
seen his friend on board, he and Dobson and Langley
returned by the higher part of the town, between two
and three o'clock in the morning. At the corner of a
street between Vernon and Orange-streets, he sew
three officers standing together but he did not inter-
fere with them in the least, either by word or deed.
After he had passed them about ten paces, one of them
came running up, struck him on the back with his stick,
and said " D— your soul, get along out of this."
The officer then struck him (Shannon) on the tempi
and knocked him down in the channel. The
blood flowed copiously from his temples, Dab-
son and Langley were two or three paces in advance
at this time. Neither of them had spoken to the
officers. The whole party were quite sober. After
having ,knocked him (complainant) down, one of the
policemen took him by the hair of the head and
dragged him along the channel ; encther lifted up his
leg, and inflicted four or five blows on the sole of his
foot with a stick. His companions, after the officers
had retired, lifted him up, placed him on some steps,
and endeavoured to stop the effusion of blood from his
temples. They then led. him up Tithebarn-street.
After having gone forty or fifty yards, they met police-
man No. 199, stated what had occurred, and asked
him for the numbers of the men on that beat. He re-
plied that he could not tell the numbers. They then
event to the main bridewell, made a similar statement
there, and preferred a similar request. They were
told that they might obtain the required information by
application at the watch-office, at ten o'clock in the
morning. No. 265 was the man who held him down
while the• other officer was laying on the soles of his
feet. He (complainant) had not been drinking at all
previous to the occurrence in question.
Henry Dobson, a smith, residing in Watkinson-
street, corroborated Shannon's evidence in nearly every
particular.
Thos. Langley, a labourer, who lives in Crosshall-
street, was then called. His detail of the circum-
stances connected with the assault differed but little
from that of the preceding witnesses. He added that
No. 288 was present ; but, though this man told his
brother officers that "it was a shame" to beat Shan-
non, he did not interfere to prevent it. On being cross
examined by No. 265, Langley's evidence was directly
opposed to that of the complainant and Dobson, on one
collateral circumstance. He said that after seeing Mr.
Shannon's friend off, they went into Langan's public-
house. Mr. Shannon had a glass of sherry there. He
(witness) had a glass of ale. They had only the one
glass each, and probably stopped in the house about
half an hour.
Nr. 2?8 was then ordered to be sworn, and to give
his evidence. He was reminded that his first duty
was to the public, and not to the corps of which he was
a member. He at first distinctly denied that he had
seen either of the three men on the morning of
Wednesday week, aad then said that he had no recol-
lection of it.
Dobson was recalled, and said he could not distinctly
swear that it was No. 288 who used the words " It's a
shame ;" but Langley was quite positive as to the iden-
tity of the man.
Officer No 265 was then asked what he had to say.
He stated that on the morning in question two men
passed him when he was standing alone in Tithebarn-
street, and one of them said—" Here is another
of those perjured villians." He (officer) asked him
.vhat he said, and then told him to go home. Shannon
thereupon made a blow at him, and he (the officer) hit
him on the ribs. Shannon then struck again, and he
(the policeman) hit him on the head. He should have
taken the complainant to bridewcll, had it not been for
his two frientLe who said that he was a decent man,
and that they would take him home. There was not
another officer present at the time, and Shannon only
received those two blows. He (the officer) struck in
self-defence ; for he knew that Shannon was a man
who had fought pitched battles.
Mr. Rushton pointed to the discrepancy in the evi-
dence, with respect to entering a public-house, and
asked Shannon why he denied the fact of having en-
tered Langan's ?
The complainant persisted that be did not enter
either that or any other house. Dobson and Langley
went in, hut he stood at the door.
Mr. Rushton then pointed out to Shannon that
there was not only a discrepancy betty( en his own evi-
dence and that of his witnesses, but that there was a
considerable portion of the time, from 12 to 20 minutes
past two o'clock, left unaccounted for. There was also
the unaccountable circumst ince of Shannon returning
from the Clarence Dock to Norfolk-street, by such a
route as that selected. These things threw some
douLt over the case ; but still thete seas sufficient evi-
dence to justify him and his brother Magistrate (Mr.
Theodore W. Rathbone) in the conviction that the
complainant had been struck by No. 265, with unjusti-
fiable violence. If the whole story of the complainant
had been borne out in those collateral circumstances
admitting of proof, they should at once have commited
No. 265 to prison, to answer an indictment ; but as this
had not been done, they should not send him to trial.
They believed, also, that he (No. 265) had received
provocation, and grievous provocaton ; but still he
ought to have abstainedt from violence, and to have
called for assistance. No. 288 bad given his testimony
in a very discreditable manner. The Magistrates
would inquire more minutely into the circumstances, and
then give their final judgment ; but in the meantime,
Nos. 265, 137, and 288, roust be suspended, and they
would not be restored for some time, if at all. 'This
case, as invariably happens when charges are brought
against the police, was most minutely, patiently, and
carefully as well as skilfully investigated by Mr. Rush-
ton, and lasted for about two hours.

(From the London Mercantile Journal of September 7.)
SUGAR.—Good grocery descriptions of West India
and strong qualities suitable for
reting in , were in demand
to-day, and the 8110 W of samples being rather indifferent,
the prices of Priday last were steadily maintained. The
low soft and brown sorts are not much wanted, and the
merchants are disposed to accept lower prices. The
private purchases amounted to about 400 hhds and tres.
100 hlls. Barili-idoes we ra offered by public auction and
disposed of
at steady prices
viz., low to fine yellow at
;
60s to 68s, and one lot low brown at 56. i per cwt.
MAURITIU.-6,438 bags, in one parcel, were brought
to the hammer, and disposed of with rather more spirit
than recently, and obtained full prices in most instances,
though the demand appeared to run chiefly on the better
qualities, ; good t,o fine bright yellow sold at 61s to
65s Gd, middling to good middling white at 55s to 595,
low yellow at 54s to 54s Gd, low grey at 54s 6d to 555,
good brown at 47s to 48s, and low to good bright brown
at 45s to 48s per cwt.
EAsT INDIA.--There was a steady request for the
good quallies of Bengal to-day, and full prices were paid,
but the inferior sorts continued rather difficult of sale,
and barely supported previous rates. An inferior parcel
consisting of 1,667 bags, was offered at public sale, and
sold slowly at easy rates ; low to good yellow at 5:3s to
535, and low heavy brown at 41s to 43s per cwt.

FOREIGN.—The market continues quiet, and prices
without alteration ; 491 boxes washed Havannah were
offered at public sale, and bought in at stifF prices ; viz.
good middling and good white at 265. to 28s, and mid-
dling ditto at 21s 6d to 25s 6d per cwt.

ILFisED.—There was a good request for grocery
goods to-day, and some large transactions took place at
stiff prices : 81s is now the nearest price of Standard
Lumps. Crushed made from Foreign in demand for ex-
port at 30s per cwt.

CoFFEE.2—The market remains quiet generally, with-
out any material change in prices ; 758 bags Rio from
