still a handsome woman. She was attended by two of Sir

the pen of Barry Cornwall, and bears the title, we believe,

EARL OF MULGRAVE AND THE MAYOR OF
DERRY.-It was well known at the time of his Excel-
lency's visit, that Gillespie, the Mayor of Derry, and all
the clique to which he pertains, had entered into a ca-
bal, to prevent as many as they could influence from at-
tending the dinner got up in honour of his Excellency.
His Lordship took up his domicile with the Bishop at
Boom-hall, and was fully aware of the set about to, be
made against him. Still, as being the representative of
Royalty, his Worship felt himself constrained by etiquette,
to pay him the formality of a merely morning call, and ac-
cordingly, early on Thursday, he rode out to Boom-hall,
with his chain of office around his neck, and sent in his card
or a message, I forget which. Whether he himself was al-
lowed to remain in the vestibule, or shown into a different
apartment, my memory does not enable me, with certainty,
to say : the former, I rather think, was the case. His Ex-
cellency, after considerable delay at length came forth.
After a few stiff bowings had been exchanged, his Excel-
lency requested to know whether he was to consider Mr.
Gillespie's visit as that of a private gentleman, or made in
his official character as Mayor of Derry. The answer was,
" Oh, certainly, as Mayor of Derry." " Well, Sir," said
Lord Mulgrave," having now received you in that capacity,
I have to add that I shall require your attendance as the
barrack-master of Derry, whilst I inspect the establishment
under your superintendence, and some other public institu-
tions in the city ;" and his Worship was obliged to mount
lis horse, and follow in the train of his Excellency, whilst
he went to the barracks, from that to the gaol, from that to
the infirmary, the lunatic asylum, &c. I saw the cavalcade,
and I assure you that if one could judge from the rueful
countenance of the civic dignitary, he would have been well
contented to be elsewhere.—Northern IVhig.
Advises from St. Petersburgh to the 30th ult., via
France, announce that the Russian Government had re-
solved to enforce quarantine upon English and French ves-
sels, but no reason is assigned for this step. The vessels
which had arrived in the roads of Cronstadt had in conse-
quence been placed i❑ a very embarrassing situation, not
having known any thing of these measures at Elsineur. The
English Consul had complained to the Government ;- but,
when the accounts left, little success had attended 'his
efforts.

INSTITUTION AT STAINES, MIDDLESEX.—The
new building erected at the foot of Staines Bridge is in-
tended for a scientific and literary institution. It is now
nearly roofed in, and will be completed by next Christmas.
It consists of a spacious theatre for lectures, and two smaller
rooms. The institution will open on the Ist of January,
1836, the anniversary of the establishment of the Society.
These are the pursuits best adapted to supply the craving
popular mind with gale and wholesome pabulum; and with-
draw it from the embittering and perilous, excitement of
politics.

NEWSPAPER STAMPS.--A return of the number
of Stamps issued for all the London Newspapers, by order
of the House of Commons, on the motion of Mr. Charles
Buller, was printed last week, in which official document,
Mr. Clement, the proprietor of the Observer, had used in
one year (the 30th of June, 1834, to the 30th of June,
1835) for his two Weekly Journals only, nearly one million
of Stamps, namely, 071,125, averaging 18,675 each Sun-
day.—From the Observer of Sunday, Oct. 11.
On Friday evening, while Mr. Adams, the eques-
trian, was going through his performance in the circle at
Astley's, the audience were very much alarmed at pereeiv,
ing.a quantity of blood issue from his mouth. He was im-
meaiately assisted from his horse, and carried out of the
ring, and a surgeon was sent for, when it was discovered
that he had broken a blood vessel. He was subsequently
removed to his own residence, where he still lies in a dan-
gerous state. The accident caused considerable sensation
among the audience. It was attributed to over-exertion in
his performance.
