Lord and Lady Ravensworth, after having paid a
visit to their Noble relatives the Earl and Countess of Mul-

Castle, on Saturday se'nnight. The bells of Gateshead
Church rung a merry peal on the occasion.
Yesterday morning Lord and Lady Holland left
town for Pansanger, Hens, the seat of Earl Cowper, where
Lord Melbourne has been also on a visit. Lord and Lady Hol-
land are expected to return this day to Holland House.
Yesterday the. General Steam-navigation Company's
mail packet, the City of Hamburg; from Hamburg, arrived off

The Rev. Edmund Squire, Head Master of Fel-
stead Classical School, has been presented by Lord Holland
to the Rectory of Ashen, Essex, vacant by the death of the
Rev. Richard Yates, D.D.
The late Hull Musical Festival has proved a disas-
trous failure to the managing parties. The expenses exceeded
the receipts by upwards of 700/.
THE PRINCE OF ORANGE.--The Gazette of
Augsburg has a letter from the Hague, which speaks of the
young Prince of Orange's journey to St. Petersburgh and to
L-ndon. His visiting England has led to conjectures of the
Court of the Hague being reconciled to that of St. James's,
now that Lord Grey has retired, whom the King of Holland
considered to be the enemy of his dynasty.
l'AnmouTif, ISLE OF WIGHT, OCT. 11.—The
Duke and Duchess of St. Alban's, Countess of Guildford,
two Ladies North, Lady Dashwood King, and a suite of thirty
persons, visited Yarmouth on Monday last. They proceed;cl
to the church to see Cibber's splendid monument of Sir
Robert Holmes, which was, built for the reception of his
Grace's Royal Ancestor, Charles 11. Her Grace bought se-
veral specimens of beautiful glass, manufactured from the
Alum Bay sand, which is shipped in great quantities from
Yarmouth, and did not forget her bounty to the poor water-
men of the place.
BROADSTAIRS.—The ball and supper at the As-
sembly Rooms at this place, on Tuesday last, attracted nearly
all the nobility and gentry of the neighbourhood, with a great
many visitors. It is said that the salubrity of the air is such
that the number of aged persons living in Broadstairs and St.
Peter's exceeds that of any other place in the country for the
size. A correspondent who, has addressed us upon this sub-
ject, states " that the three last Vicars of the parish resided
105 years at the vicarage, and when they died the average age
of each was 70."
ELECTION OF CORONER FOR SHROPSHIRE.—
After a contest of unprecedented severity, Mr. Downes, the
Whig candidate, has been elected coroner; defeating his op-
ponent Mr. Hart, who was strenuously supported by all the
Tory aristocracy of the county, by a majority of 192. A sub-
saiption on behalf of Mr. Downes was commenced on Mon-
day, by Sir E. Smythe, Bart., with 100/., followed by Mr.
Slaney, M.P., with 501.
The Secretary at War has been entertaining some
distinguished visitants at his shooting quarters in Inverness-
shire. Among them are the Earl and Countess of Durham,
the Marquis and Marchioness of Abercorn, Capt. Gordon,
Captain Balfour, &c.
It is said that something unpleasant has occurred in
a family of distinction, which threatens a "break up" of the
establishment. We know no particulars, and merely repeat a
report in circulation, without being able either to state the
facts, or decide upon its authenticity.—Morning Paper.
Mr. Gillon has been rendering an account of his
stewardship to the constituency of the Falkirk burghs ; to
whom his independent conduct in Parliament seems to have
affjrded great satisfaction.
Mr. Wordsworth has a volume of new poems in the
Press. At this stagnant period of our poetical literature we
hail the re-appearance of this delightful and sensitive poet.
WINCHESTER, OCT. ll.—The Lord Bishop of
Winchester has held a Confirmation at Poole, Wareham,
Dorchester, and other places in Dorsetshire.
DINNER TO LORD DURFIAM.—There are some
curious coincidences connected with the Grey and Durham
dinners, which would seem to point out a remarkable pater-
nity of feeling betwixt the Scottish capitals of the East and
West. Edinburgh had not a hall large enough for her ban-
quet ; neither has Glasgow for hers. The one built a pavi-
lion to accommodate the guests, the other intends to do the
same. The erection here was placed in the High School
Yards ; the one at Glasgow is to be built on similar ground.
Our architect was named Hamilton; the Glaswegians have
got a Hamilton for their architect too I Our pavilion was
crowded ;it is expected theirs will be the same. Our trades
walked in procession ; theirs are to process also ; and had the
Western ticket been a guinea in place of 10s. 6d. the two
festivals would have been every way alike in outward circum-
stances.—Edinburgh Chronicle.
We are enabled to state, in the most positive terms,
that the allusions of a Morning Contemporary on Friday last,
relative to the position of a Joint-stock Banking Company
with their London Correspondent, is not founded in fact. We
are not, and never have been, the thick-and-thin advocates of
every or all kinds of Joint-stock Banking Societies—yet it is
our duty to correct any unguarded statements that may affect
public credit. We have every reason to feel authorised in
stating, that the paid-up capital of the concern alluded to, and
the present amount of the deposits, are so large, that we feel
there is no warranty for the slightest doubt of its stability.
We believe the rumour to which we have referred originated
in some disputed point of form between the Bank and the par-
ties they drew on here.—Morning Paper.
We have been told by well-informed parties, and
yet fain would doubt the information, that the Bank of Eng-
land have resolved to close the accounts of all joint-stock
banks who are now, or may become banks of issue ; two or
three days will solve the fact. If it should so prove, it will be
our duty to reprobate a grasping spirit of monopoly which
could only be created by the influence of Peel's Bill. But
supposing the Bank of England to be so imprudent, where
would it be if the principal joint-stock banks were to unite in
a demand for gold ? We will not hint at the awful position of
the country under such circumstances. Money, although it
continues in demand, is not so difficult to be obtained where
confidence can be placed : and it will be seen from our quota-
tions that the British Funds continue very firm. The advices
from Madrid to-day, so amply detailed in this journal, have
had the effect, coupled with its remarks, of opening the eyes
of the dupes of the Spanish robbery, for in no other terms can
the financial juggle of Spain be designated ; indeed it has
created the utmost indignation here. It is the opinion of the
most respectable men, that if the new loan is attempted to be
brought out in London, no members of the Stock Exchange
who value their characters, or have any character left, will dis-
grace themselves by writing for the Scrip.—Morning Paper.
CONSTABULARY BEDDING.—The Commissariat
Department has recently issued a supply of horse-hair for the
bedding of the Irish police, to be substituted in the place of
straw. It is estimated that a great pecuniary saving will re-
sult from this arrangement. We understand that the expense
of straw has hitherto been 2s. per man annually. The hair
which has been recently issued has cost Bs. 111 d. per man,
but it may be considered imperishable. Thus, by means of
an expenditure at once of something less than the price of
straw for four years and a half, a saving will be annually made,
after the expiration of that period, of from 700/. to 800/. per
annum. It is supposed, also, that the ticking. when stuffed
with hair, will last much longer than when filled with straw.
SOUTHAMPTON, OCT. 11.—Southampton Water,
which, it has been remarked, has been rather scarce of fish
for the last few years, now abounds with them, particularly
bass and mullet. This we attribute to a due compliance with
the Act prohibiting the use of nets with the mesh under a
certain size. A match of cricket was played on Peartree-
green on Monday last between eleven of. Itehen, Bitterne,
Sholing, &c., and eleven members of the Odd Fellows So-
ciety, Southampton, to whom the challenge was given, and
in whose favour the match was decided, the Odd Fellows
beating the union by nine wickets.
The Tory papers are wondering whether the Pre-
mier will overlook the just claim of the Speaker's Chaplain,
by again superseding him. The former cccasion was, when
the Bishop of Hereford obtained the stall at Westminster, and
Mr. Wood Canterbury. The appointment to which they think
lie has now a claim, is that of the vacant stall at Windsor ;
but surely they must know that the stalls at Windsor are at
the sole disposal of the King, and that the tenure of the canons
depends entirely upon the sic volo or sic jubeo of his Majesty,
who can even remove the Dean or any canon at his pleasure.
The Dean of Hereford—the excellent and exemplary Dr.
Mereweather—it is supposed, will succeed Dr. Stanier Clarke.
From accounts dated Lima, the 28th of May, it ap-.
pears that the ex-President, Gamarra, was about to declare
the three southern departments of Peru a separate Republic,
of which Cusco would be the capital city. To prevent this
plan from taking effect, President Obregoso was on the march
from Lima with the main body of the forces, while General
Miller was embarking in a brig of war, with a chosen detach-
ment, to land at Chala, and, recruiting as he went along, to
operate against Arequipa. From the tenour of these accounts
it appears that the scarcity of firm, able, and honest men in
the Government is likely to keep Peru in a state of commo-
tion for a long time, as no sooner is one emeute put down
than another breaks out elsewhere, and great injury is done to
the property and respectability of the country. On the whole,
however, except along the actual line of civil warfare, a per-
ceptible improvement is said to be taking place in the con-
dition of the people.
THE LATE FIRE IN LAWRENCE POUNTNEY-
LANE.—The loss by this destructive fire is estimated to be
about 20,0001. Besides the warehouses of Messrs. Henry
Powell and Company., which were totally destroyed, there
were from seven to eight adjacent houses, with the furniture
therein, more or less damagled. The fire originated, it is said,
as follows :—A workmaui, in attempting to draw forth a bung
from a cask of turpentine, found it necessary to put his whole
strength, when the bung suddenly came out, and he fell back-
wards, knocking down in his fall a lamp, when the turpentine
ignited.
