TRI number of Troops that are already on their
march, or that are in readiness to march, to re.
inforce the Army of Italy, amounts from 20 to
25,000 men. General MURAT, brother-in-law
of the First Consul, is destined to have the Com-
mand of all the French Troops which are to be
distributed for the most part along the coasts
of the extremity of the- Kingdom of Naples to
the Genoese Territory. Several Generils cele.
brated for their miliary skill and valour, are ap-
pointed to serve under General Mtn AT. Orders
have been- also given s'to reinforce the Garrison of
the Island of Elba; and there is a great talk of
sending a Corps of 3000 men to Aneonai to aug-
ment the Gdrrison of that place,. in order to secure
a military point on the Adriatic Sea.
In general a War with England is considered as
unavoidable ; and we every moment expeft news of
of the commencement of hostilities. In the mean
time, however, the Negotiations are carrying
.on,
but the hope of an amicable accommodatiott is
almost vanished. The warlike preparations in
our Sea.ports are
.going forward 'with an ardour
beyond example. The Admirals and other Officers
who are to have the command of our Fleets, Squa-
drons and numerous Flotillas, are already seletted,
although their appointments are not yet publicly
announced. Thus is it also as to the Generals and
superior-Officers who are appointed to'command the
Troops assembling from Brest to the North Sea. We

The Hon. and Rev. THOMAS LAURENC e Dux.

On Saturday last died, at Holton Park, Oxford-
, shire, in the 24,th year of her age, the Hon. Mrs..
PARKER, wife of Colonel PARKER, brother to the
Earl of MAcct.Esr eLD. Mild and.dignified in her
manners and condud, as a wife and mother, she dis.
played all the fascinating virtues which adorn her
sex. In a loose and dissipated age, the loss of an
accomplished domestic female forms a chasm in so-
' ciety not easily filled up. Could the endearments
'of faithful conjugal love, the heartfelt solicitude of
her numerous friends, or the prayers and the tears
of the' widow ant! `the orphan, have prolonged her
days, five female infants would not now have to
deplore the awful visitation which snatches the ma.
ternal embrace from them for ever.

Lady INGL t Y AMCOTTS had nearly experienced
a dreadful accident a few days since, at her seat at
Harrington, near Spilsby, in Lincolnshire. Whilst
her Ladyshipiwas stirring the Are, a coal fell on-her
gown, and thellarnea had already reached her hand-
kerchief which would most prob.►bly have proVed
fatal before the family could have rendered assist-
ance, when her Ladyship's great presence of mind
induced her to roll herself in the carpet, by which
she was providentially extricated from her dangerou s
situation. ,

About ten o'clock yesterday morning, as the ser-
vant of Captain ELSTED, of the Royal Navy, was
driving his master's curricle and pair, turning
from Bond-street into Piccadilly, one of the traces
loosened, and touched the horses legs, who being
very spirited, plunged, and ran with the greatest
violence till they came near the Star in Piccadilly,
when the carriage upset, and the driver was thrown
to a considerable distance; this was only a momen-
tary check ; for, with the curricle turned upside.
down, they pursued their career, and were not
stopped till they reached Princes-street, Leicester.
fields. The servant, we are sorry to add, received
by the fall a very dangerous contusion ou,his head.
The curricle was broken to pieces.

On Friday evening last, between .seven And eight

by the assistance of the engines, and skilful exer.
tions of the Firemen, its progress was stopped.
Mr. CLARK E'S 'son, a child about three years 'old,

At a quarter before six o'clock, all the company
being assembled, the doors of the Egyptian Hall were
thrown open, and
\the company sat down to an enter.
tainment as sumptuous and as corkfiniently arran4ed
as any that has ever been given at the. Mansion
House on the same occasion.

About eight o'clock the Lathes retired from din—
ner ; the Gentlemen continued some time longer at
table.

Among the company present were Lords ELLEN.
BOROUGH, CASTLERF.AGH, CARRINGTON, BRUCE!.

The Ball commenced about ten o'clock, with a
minuet danced by the eldest Miss PILIC E and the
Earl of ATHLONE ; a minuet was also danced by
another of the LORD MAYOR'S daughters and the
'above mentioned Nobleman. Country dances fol-
lowed, in which General ANDREOSSY and several
of the Foreign Ministers took part.
The Ball Company was so numerous that Cheap_
side was thronged with carriages going to the Man.
sion-House, so late as between eleven and twelve
o'clock.

In the centre of the Egyptian Hall was a balloon,
figure of a very large size, with a car, flags, &c. to
illuminate which, more than a 'thousand small •lamps
were added to iliose which, on former occasions,
lighted the same apartment. In the balloon were
seated figures emblematical of ,the iVlilitary and
Naval Powers of
..Great Britain, one bearing the
Standard of England, the other the Standard of the
Volunteer Corps of which his Lordship was Colonel.
This truly grand and superb speetacle was regarded
as a masterpiece of ingenuity by: every person we...
sent. The balloon, the car-, the. very ropes;' were
formed of lamps adapted to produce the most lively
and pleasing effeEt... The eight pilasters in the
.saloon were adOrned. with various devices„ such as
,wreaths of lamps, and of artificial 'flowers inter-
mixed, &c.
The centre ornaments were 'a Temple of Peace,
,with green glass and. gold, with a glory,-On the top,
and a Cupid hovering over, with emblems of the
.Blessings of Peace. On each side appeared four
large Naal_Pillars,. she Pet high,' ornamented with
medallions Of ihe differene•Minirals who
gabbed themselves; in the British Service during
the late War. On the top' of each Pillar stood a
figure of Britannia, holding the Standard of Great
Britain. The Pitiars were surrounded' with the
Flags of .the neighbouring Ntitions, intended to in-
timate that we are in peaceable intercourse with
them all.
On the centre tables were two large Ni:val. Tem-
ples ornamented with Flags, with the likenessei of
our Admirals, and the implements of war reversed.
On the side.tables were two. Temples of the Sun,
each seven feet high, ornamented in a very handsome
manner. On each side were trophies Of War, with
the implements reversed. The parierre w7is in a
style of uncommon neatness, paying a compliment
to His MAJESTY, and to the Nations in amity with
us, in beautiful devices.
The ancient Bakm o Self was elevated on a
high frame, at the end 4.:the table : a carver stood
near, demolishing with the greatest dexterity and
activity, to satisfy the wishes of such of the guests
AS retained the genuine old English taste in good
eating. There were also some very attraetive mo-
dels of ships of war in pastry, two feet long.

lit TifE OF zi..Nlcitttit:

A PERSON of the nathe of Johnson presented
t'etition,„yraying that Thomas Robert Mawler;
Solicitor, of the • Coart, might pay certain costs
incetre4 in.'crinsequence of lining out a X.:ominisr
sloe or Bankruptcy against Mr. Elinton, former-
ly of the • Old Bailey, printer,. it ..appeared that
Mr. Johnson' had delimited 'a quantity of coppe.r.
plates and paper with Mr. Hinton, who, from dis.
tress, had been induced to pledge the article's: Mrs
Johnson was Obliged to sustain considerable losses
in redeeming. the articles so pledged''; and-. it was
afterwards referred to arbitration,, io ascertain
the amount of the sum the Bankrupt was bourrd
to reimburse him. The arbitrators awarded' Mr;
Johnson to, be paid a sum amounting to above one
Kindred pounds.. The Petition then went on td
state, that in order to destroy' the area of thit,
award, Mr. Mawley sued out a Commission of
Bankruptcy upon the Petiiion of a• Mr. Pearce, un-
der 'which Mr. Pearce and the Petitioner were ap-
pointed Assignees ; that debts were proved to the
amount of between 306 and 4001. hut that nothing
had ever been recovered of the -bankrupt's estate,
except' two sums, one of 601. :it'd another of 71.
sums which were inadequate even to defraying the
expence of the Commission and attendant charges..
That the Petitioner had been put to various cost,.
in consequence, of the Bankruptcy ; and it inferred
that Mr. Mawley knew at the timb he took out the
Commission Of Bankruptcy against Hinton, he was
not possessed of sufficient property to defray the
expence of it. It therefore prayed that Mr. Maw. •
ley might repay the Petitioner the costs he had been
put to, in consequence of the Bankvicy.
The LORD CHANCELLOR observed; that a mea-
sure Which had been proposed to him last week by
Lord REDESDALE, as necessary to be adopted in Ire.,
land, was no less necessary with regard to part
of the of the United Kingdorrk, That Noble Lord
had informed him, that it was a common pcielice in
Ireland for Cominissiobs of Bankruptcy to issue
against persons, whO, so far from having .pFiverty,
to satisfy their Creditors, b6d not sufficient even to
defroy, the expenses of the commissions in con4e-
pence of which, Creditori austab.ed a less even be. '
yond that of their debts.

• His Lordship therefore wished, that an m df
parliament should. piss, requiring Solicitors, whet
they sued out a Commission of Bankruptcy, to make.
affidavit that they believed the Bankrupt-iv:is pos..
iessed of sufficient property to reuil,,.r such n yro;
ceeding an Ira °Prudence on the part of the Credi,
tors; 'His Lordship added*, that the circumstances
of the piesent case proved, that such an Aiatif.Par..
liament would be equally applicable to the praftice
introduced in this colintry. He cut: ttained, doubts
lkow far he-was justified in ordering Mr. Mawley to ,
pay the Costs, as. the Petition'ilid not prty 'that the
Commission should be super.setled.. . Had it done so,
he was, of opirtion'. he shoulz have orderetCi tta
have been superieded at the expenee of the Solicitor,
and.that heshould have diredled hint to have paid
the Costs Which the Petitioner had incurred in con,
sequence of his\ suing out a Commission where
there was. no adequate property. ‘ He, would, how—
ever, order, that the business should stand over tar
three weeks, that :the Petitioner might take legal
advice as to the propriety of amending leis Petition.
In the, Mean time, he hoped Mr. pdawley would
consult his own interest, by doing whatihe justice
Of the case required, and prevent, arty further ap.
plication to the Court. lie felt him. elfcompelled,
in the present stage, not to grant the prayer of the
Petition ; but he certainly should 'not allow Mr.
Mawley any Costs for resisting it.
