Mn. EDITOR,--,-Seeing an account of the coach
overturning, near Kilburn, owing to their racing,
in your Paper, I beg leave to Correct the state-
ment, as it was not the coachman's fault, as he
was on his right side ; but two 'milk carts were
racing, anti the ofl• one drove near the coach, to
prevent the near one passing; and the near one
turned short. under the leaders' beads; which
caused them to bolt into the ditch, and so over-
turned the coach. I take the liberty of sending
these few lines, hoping you will correct the state-
ment-, and likewise to give publicityto the truth ;
and h hope these fellows will be punished, as they
are very dangerous to the public round about
London. I have a friend who has hit leg broke
in two places, and his head dreadfully lacerated,
—Mr. Carruthers, 13, Bridge-road, Lambeth,
whose lite at present is despaired of. Yours, &c.
Bridge-road, Lambeth. J. M3SOLON.

There is now in the garden of Mr. W. COLE,

ORIGINAL POETRY.

TO WILLIAM SMITH, EsQ.*

Pear Sir, the Pheasant came to-day,
Though dead, yet still in plumage gay,
Ald, therefore, upon honour,.
When I shall taste thy gift so hind,
A bumper, iron] a friendly mind,
Shall for.the 'DotiOr.

And, When by Fate's resrrlle,ss blow,
Thou, like the Pheasant, shalt lie low,

By all lamented here,—
Then, may thy Spirit wing its way,
In pure celestial plumage gay,
To Heaven's eternal Year.

It This Gentleman, so long an ornament of the London
Stage, resides at Bury St. Edmund's, in good health and
spirits, and in complete possession of his intellective powers,
on the verge of his 88th year.

FLYING MACHINE.—A Country Clergyman in
Lower Saxony has been so happy as to succeed
in accomplishing the invention of an. air-ship.—
The machine is built of light wood ; it is made to
float in the air chiefly by means of the constant
action of a large pair of bellows, of a peculiar
construction, which occupies in the front the
position of the lungs and the neck of a bird on the
wing. The wings on both sides are directed by
thin cords. The height to which the farmer's
boy (10 or 12 years of age) whom the inventor has
instructed in the management of it, has hitherto
ascended with it is not considerable, because. his
attention has been more directed to give a pro-
gressive than an ascending motion to his machine,
DEATH BY BOXING.—+OII Sunday evening last,
at the Chequer, in Ramsgate, a sudden quarrel
arose between one John Humphris and a Richard
Pratley, and they went into an adjoining green-
sward ground, and fought for half an hour.; in the
last round both the combatants fell, but Hum-
phris was undermost ;--;his second endeavoured to
get him up, but found him entirely helpless and
senseless t he was then taken to the Chequer, hut
the landlord inhumanly refused to take him in ;
upon which he was taken to a straw hovel, and
carefully covered up and left, in hopes he might,
after a little rest, recover himself;. but, on being
visited in an honr or two afterwards, he was found
dead.—,An innui'sition was taken the following
day before Mr. Macey, Coroner, when it was
found that the upper part of the head %vas externally
injured ; and upon opening the skull, a consider-
able quantity of extravaiated blood was discover.;
ed, which the attendant surgeons pronounced to
be the cause of his death. The Jury found a
verdict of Manslaughter against Richard Pratley,
and the Coroner issued his warrant for apprehend-
ing. himi

CHRISTCHURCH, HANTS,

On Friday -last two' of the troops of South
Hants Yeomanry, forming the Chri,4chtirCh spin-
dron, after attending the usual number ot days
exercise, terminated their-lab,ms-tor the present
year. In consequence of the absence ot their Co-
lonel, his Excellency the Right Hon GEORGE
HENRY Rosr, on his mission to Berlin, the corn•
mand devolved on Captain SMITE. The troops
ou the several days went through their various
evolutions with that steady correctness which re-
flected much deserved .credit on the Oeficers 'aud
men. They were particularly well-mounted, and
displayed their usual military appearance. It is
expected the annual diversions here, on Tuesday
next, by horses belonging to the two troops, will
attract much company,,and, if the weather proves
favourable, we anticipate the attendance ot a
considerable portion ot the Beau Monde in the
neighbourhood.
