INCENDIARISM.—Wednesday information wfii-
ce:red at Bow-street, that about six o'clock on. tho
morning of the 14th inst. some evil-disposed person o
persons set fire to an oat stack, with intent to destroy •
several other corn and hay stacks, standing in the hoMe-,7
stead yard, and being the property of Mr. Thomas 4b-
bott, of the Manor-house, Belchford, near Horneastle,
_ .

the county of Lincoln, whereby the oat stack was totally
destroyed. A reward of 100/. • has been offered by her
Majesty's Government, with a free pardon to any accom-
plice, not being the person wh6 actually set fire to the
stack. Mr. Thomas Abbott and his friends have offered
70L, and an additional 40/. from the trea4rer ot. the
Horncastle New Association for the Discovery of
Felony.—Also that, on the night 'of the 18th inst., or
early the following morning, some person or persons
wilfully set fire to a stack of hay, and upwards of 320
sheaves of corn, in the village of Llansanan, in the
county of Denbigh, the property of Mr. Joseph Jonew.
A reward of-51 is offered for the discovery of the incen-
diary.
In the London Gazette we find the fo/lowing in the list
of army appointments :—" 15th Foot.—Christopher Say-
ers, Gent., 'to be Ensign without pUrchase, vice Pisoctl,
whose appointment has been cancelled."' Mr. Sayers is
brother to the Rev. A. Sayers, of this city (Glouct•Ster),
and also to a very gallant officer, Mr. Henry Ictiight,
Sayers, of the 31st, who led the storming party through
the Tezeen Pass, in Alfghanistan, but whose death, from
the fatigues which he endured during that campaikn, de-
prived him of the promotion which was awaiting him,
and which his gallantry had so nobly won. The present,
appointment has been made by the Duke of Wellington,
without purchase, entirely in consideration of the soldier-
like conduct of the deceased gentletnan, who, in his own
person, was not permitted to receive the reward of his
bravery.—Glouctster Chronic le.

_The greater
part of the harpies of society live and gorge themselves
,by taking advantage of this imprudence. Half tho
population of London live upon it three-fourths of the

Mr. Dean and Mr. Brudenell Plummer were hare hunt-,T

SURMA! E.—The shades of night gathered thickly
around ; dark:masses hung portentously overtheepith ;
the wind whistled mournfully over the horizon.; while
the deep-toned thunder, in muttering accents, proclaimed
the fearful tempest's near approach ; and, as the big
drops of rain began slowly to descend, one little pig,
with a look and manner not to be mistaken, curled up

CHINESE JESTS.—A man of letters, who spent a
great part of the night in study, kept a kettle on the fire
to make tea, as a stimalus when he should be wearied.
One night, hearing a thief breaking in thro;igh the wall,
he took post by it with the kettle in his hand ; end
when the thief had thrust both his legs through the aper-
ture, the student seized them, and poured the boiling
water upon them. The robber rattled out for mercy.
" Wait,' replied the otlur, coolly, " until 1 empty the
kettle."

HEROIC A CT.—thannal) More, in a I.qter 10. her
si,ter, in 1762, relates the following interesting incident :
" The other morning the Captain of one of Commodore John-
son's Dutch prizes breakfasted at Sir Charles Middleton'., sad
related the following little anecdote :—One day he went
out of his own ship to dine on board of another; while he
was there a storm arose, which in a short time made isa
entire wreck of his owe ship, to which it was impossible for
him to return. He had left on board two little boys, out
four and the other five sears old, under the care of a poor
old black servant. The people struggled to get out it the
ship into a largo boat, and the poor black took his master's
two children, tied them in a bag, an putting in a little pet
of sweetmeats for them, slung them across his shoulder, and
put them into a boat. The hoat by this time was quite full ;
the black was stepping into it himself, but was told by the
master these was no room for hue ; that either he or the child-
ren must peri,h, for the weight of both must sink the boat.
The exalted heroic negro did not hesitate a moment. Very
well,' said he, ' give my duty Wily master, and tell hire I
pardon for all my Linits,' and then—guess the rest-41les
into the ocean never to rise again, till the sea shall give op
dead. I told it the other day to Lord Illooboedo, wire fe y
beret into tears. The greatest lady in this land wants ire to
make an elegy of it, but it is above poesy."
