DONCASTER, SEPT. 21.

The ball last night, which took place at 'the Mansion-
house, was brilli int!), and fashionably attended. The ball
was opened by Mrs. Camac and Mr. J. D. Browne. Mrs.
Camac's diamonds were of the most brilliant description.
Titoff and Adam's celebrated band played the most en-
chanting music. The entire evening, waltzes, gallopades,
and the mczurka were danced alternately. Among the com-
pany we noticed the Duke of Leeds and P►liss Fox, Mar-
quis and Marchioness of Cleveland, Lords Fitzroy,
Graham, Adolphus Fitzclarence, Uxbridge, Newark,
Althorp, Scarborough, Countess of Mexborough, Mrs.
Camac, Mr. Denis Browne, Mr. Turnley, &c.

A silly joke is in the Morning Papers copied
from those of France, not worth the space it occupies. It
is in the shape of a pretended letter from 111!num. to Don
PEDRO, proposing to his brother to come to Lisbon, upon
the guarantee of his word, make a tour of Portugal with
him' to be convinced that be is disliked, and then go about
his business upon a pension.

The death of Lady ELEANOR CAMPBELL,
which took place a few days since at Woodhall, in Argyll.
shire, has plunged many noble families into mourning.
Her Ladyship was the eldest daughter of the Earl and
Countess of WEMYSS mid MARCH, and married, in 1820,
WALTER FREDERICK CAMPBELL, Esq., M.P. for the
county of Argyll, a son of Lady CHARLOTTE Bum-, by
her first husband, Colonel CAMPBELL, of Stansfield. Lady
LOUISA CHARTER'S, a younger sister of the lamented
Lady, formed a matrimonial connection only three or four
weeks back with Mr. FORBES. Lady ELEANOR was in
the flower of her (lays, and has left one son by her mar.
riage with Mr. CAMPBELL. Her Ladyship rarely mingled
with the fashionable world, generally residing with her
family in the north.

We are exceedingly sorry to state that several
cases of cholera have occurred in this town during the
week, nearly all of which have proved fatal. From the
cleanly state of the town, and the salubrity of the situa-
tion, we would fain hope that this disastrous disease will
not prevail to any great extent in this neighbourhood.—
Chronicle.

The demand for hops from France, Belgium,
and Germany continues, which will clear the market of the
old stock, and be of much service to the dealer,. It is
nearly 15 years since there was a similar demand, and it
arises in the present instance from the failure of the crop
in those countries.—Dorset Chronicle.

Prince ANDRE DE GALITZIN, one of the
Aides-de-Camp to the Emperor of RUSSIA, and a son, we
believe, of the Governor of Moscow, has arrived in town,
the bearer of despatches of importance for Prince LIEVEN.
Numerous meetings of the Foreign Diplo-
matic Corps were held on Saturday, and the communica-
tions with the Foreign-office were frequent.

Last night a courier arrived with despatches
from St. Petera!iurg, dated Aug. 29 (N. S. Sept. 9.)
TIIE IRISH WOOL TRADE.— Combing
fleece continues steady, and a fair demand for export at
16s. 6(1. Some very superior lots have brought 17s. this
week. The stock in the hands of the factors is very
light.—Dublin Morning Register.

LAMENTABLE ACCIDENT ON LOCHLO-
moND.--On Tuesday morning a family party, consisting
of nine persons in humble life, were taking a pleasurable
sail on Lochloniond, when a sudden gust of wind upset
the boat, and six of the party were drowned.
A fell ewe, belonging to Mr. JOSEPH TYSON,
of Little A; row Church, Coniston, yeaned, on the top of
Coniston Old Man, a mountain 2,500 feet high, on the
second day of the present month, (Sept.) A similar cir-
cumstance was never previously known by the oldest
shepherd in that district —Kendal Chronicle.
SCIENCE IN EGYPT.—The Paella of EGYPT
has made great exertions to introduce the most important
improvements in science generally, and in medicine in par-
ticular, into his dominions. For this purpose he some
years ago induced M. CLOT, a French surgeon, to settle
in Egypt, and patronized the establishment of a Medical
School at Abouzabel, to the proceedings of which we have
repeatedly alluded. The Pacha has recently created his
French protége a Bey, so that he now figures under the
somewhat ludicrous appellation of Clot Bey ; and his
patron is about to despatch him with twelve young Egyp-
tians to Paris, where they are to be educated in the most
complete manner, and on their return to be appointed
Professors of the different branches of knowledge they
have acquired. Who knows but it may be destined that
science shall again, as in times of old, find a resting-place
in Egypt.—Medical Gazette.
A bird was caught, a short time ago, in a sin-
gular manner, upon a beach tree, at Wester Plean. It
was found suspended by the foot, from the underside of a
leaf. How long it had remained in this position is un-
known, but
judging from its exhausted appearance, it is
likely it had been there a considerable time. On bending
the branch to ascertain the cause of this novel trap, it
was found that the foot had got entangled in the cocoon
of a moth. There was likewise, on the same leaf, a glu.
tinous matter, to which several aphides, or plant lice, ad-
hered- This was probably the bait which allured the
poor bird into the snare.--.Ca/edonian Mercury.

Our farmers brought us in another large supply of Wheat to-

some instances Is. per quarter snore was made of fine qualities.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK

The only arrival of importance this morning is the estafette
from Paris, which confirms the death of the King of Spain, and
a determination on the part of the King of France, with the
English Government, to assist King Leopold, the former with
an army of 50,000 men, and the latter to blockade the Scheldek'
Still with all these demonstrations no actual war may .take
place between Belgium and Holland, as Prussia and Austria, it
is said, will act in accordance with England and France ; and
the season is too far advanced for Russia to march an army to the
frontiers of Holland. In respect to the death of the King of Spain,
his daughter a child scarcely three years old, it is supposed
will be called to the throne under the regency of Don Carlos,
who is still more priost-riden than the deceased King. This
will no doubt cause a strong opposition on the part of the Con-
stitutionalists in Spain, and perhaps ere long may lead to a civil
war in that country.
The Portuguese and Lisbon merchants are much sur-
prised at the packet not having arrived from Lisbon, but if we
can put faith in the French accounts this morning, news had
been received from Oporto of the 11th September, stating that
on the morning of the 6th, Don Pedro's troops had made a
sortie on the side of Vellaneva, and forced the Miguelites from
their positions, which they abandoned without fighting, after
which Don Pedro's troops returned to Oporto. It is also stated
that Don ➢liguel's fleet was still in the Tagus on the 7th Sept.

Some contbsion has taken place amongst our City specula-
tors on the information of the death of the King of Spain, and
the marching of a French army towards Belgium, which has
caused the French Funds to recede a little.

Consols, which left oft' on Saturday at 84 for the Account,
opened at 83 %, alternately buyers and sellers; at present they
are 83 %. with little doing.

We have no official news from Portugal.
In the Foreign Market Spanish Stock has improved per
Cent; Portuguese Scrip 31 discount.
Not a single ship letter has been received this morning.
LIALF-PAST ONE.

It is stated that private accounts have beeo received from
Oporto of the 13th inst., and that an armistice has taken place
between the two parties; but we could not trace this report to
any authentic shape.

All at present continues uncertain, and the best informed do
not know if hostilities will take place between the Belgians
and the Dutch.

Consols have been during the morning 83%, alternately
buyers and sellers.

In the Foreign Market little doing. Spanish Stock has been
the only speculation this morning, at an improved price.

Our Penrith Correspondent led us into an
error in saying the LORD CHANCELLOR had dined at
Lowther. We are informed, on inquiry, that this is not
true—we merely wish the fact to be stated: the LORD
CHANCELLOR has not dined out situ* his arrival in this
county. The Loan CHANCELLOR completed his 54th year
on Wednesday last.—Kendal Chronicle of Saturday.
SIR WALTER SCOTT.—A letter from Ab-
botsford describes Sir WALTER as generally in a state of
stupor, from which he is only aroused to suffer severe pain.
His strength of body and constitution, says the letter, is
his greatest enemy.

FRANKFORT, SEPT. 19.

There are Germans who .oe ~Boost maddened at the
..wts of the Diet, yet they know not what course to adopt.
The proceelings of the aristocracy may be learned front
the fact, that the " noble families" in Baden, whose privi-
leges of p tying no taxes, &c., were abolished by the
Chambers of that duchy last year, have actually petitionfA
the Diet to have them restored. It is presumed that the
Diet, which is going back to old times, will reinstate them
u all their feudal rights.

In Nasau, the levying of the taxes voted by the irrezu-
-I,r Chambers, last spring, has begun. The inhabitants
rf Wisbuden, with the exception of about 60 emp/otie..-,
wive refused to pay, as they have not been 1t..g.:11y granted.
E.xecutions will, it is expected, be levied against them, and
,ppression or resistance must follt:w.

The elections in Hesse Darmstadt and Hesse-Cassel
!save ensured the return of some of the most liberal seen.
At the University of Marburg, the election of M. Jordan
was hailed by the students and by the inhabitants of the
town as a popular triumph, and celebrated as such with
the utmost enthusiasm. The interference of the Diet with
their constitution is likely to drive the Hessians, who are
the must liberal and the most independent, as well as the
ttravest people in Germany, into revolution, and Prussa
vjll then occupy the country.
In Frankfort three young men, name', Funck, Sauer-
wein, and Freyeisrn, who published a political periodical
*lnk at Hanau, in Hesse Cassel, have been setrenc.Al by the
mike to four weeks' imprisonment, for some observations
which the censor has allowed. They have appealed again:t
.the sentence as most unjust, as the censor is guilty, not the) .
