FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE.

Wiwnson, Aug. 14. His MAJESTY has not
taken any airing since Saturday last.
On Sunday afternoon his MAJESTY'S visitors left
the Royal Lodge in the pony phaetons, and inspected
the whole of the interior and exterior improvements of
the Castle, accompanied by Mr. J. Wyatville. The
Royal Party, alter continuing their drives about the
Great Park, returned to the Royal Lodge, and dined
with his MAJESTY.

After dinner his Grace the Duke of Wellington left
for his seat in Hampshire, and Lord Graves for Lon-
don : the remaining visitors still continue at the Royal
Lodge.
Yesterday morning, at half-past nine o'clock, her
Royal Highness the Princess Augusta left Frogmore
Lodge, accompanied by Lady Mary Taylor, for Bolg.
nor, Sussex. The Duchess of Gloucester left also For
Bagshot Park.
The greater portion of the Royal Household, with
a select number of their friends, were last evening en.
tertained by his MAJESTY with a ball and supper at
Cumberland Lodge, which was kept up with the
greatest spirit until a late hour this morning.

An attempt is now being made to raise the Leith
smack Delight, which vessel, it may be recollected,
went down in deep water several months ago near
Yarmouth. The Delight when she sank had a con-
siderable quantity of gold on board, together with a
valuable cargo.

LADY-BIRDS.--A party of gentlemen the other
day visiting the top of St. Paul's, were surprised to
see the dome literally covered, and so red with flame-
coloured corslets of these insects glancing in the sun,
as hardly to admit of being looked. upon.

for the last two years ; I have never known any charge against
him but this.
Ralph Shorrock, examined by Mr. Comsat; for the prisoner
Kay-,-I am a nervant in the prosecutor's employment. The pri-
soner Kay was a fellow-workman of mine. On the day of the
'riot we left the factory about a quarter of an hour before the mob
carne. I went about half way towards my home when I met a
young man whom I knew, and we returned towards the factory.
I met Kay going towards home with his back to the factory.
When I got to the factory, the soldiers had arrived.
John-Brown—On the day of the riot I was going towards my
warehouse, but, in consequence of what I heard -in the street, I
went towards Mr. Eccles's factory. I saw the prisoner Kay
coming out of the factory door with Ralph Shorrock. The pri-
soner Kay stood by me near the saw-pit, outside the factory. The
prisoner stood by me until after the arrival of the soldiers, and we
then went towards home ; my house is about 100 yards distance
from his. In about half an hour from the time Kay came out of
the factory, we got to his house.
Ralph Shorrock was recalled—When he met Kay going to-
wards home, there was a woman named Ashton walking with
him. The last witness might have been with the prisoner, but
there:was such a crowd that witness did not recollect having seen
him.
Jolin Cunliffe (for the prisoner Latham)—l have known the
Prisoner for the last five years. On the 24th of April last, I saw
him before the arrival of the military, standing quiet and peace-
ably in the field behind the prosecutor's factory. I stood with
him about twenty minutes, but upon the arrival of the military,
I went away, and left him in the field.
Cross-examined—l went to the mill for the purpose of seeing a
lodger of mine, who worked in the factory. I was afraid he
might stop in the factory.
Thomas Harword (for the prisoner Bolton)—I know the pri-
soner was riot at Blackburn at the time of the riot. On that day
he was with me on the'road to Blackburn, between four and five
o'clock in the evening.
James Seager (for the prisoner Ormerod) said that he had known
this boy for several years, and that up to the day of the riot he
had never heard any charge against him.
Mr. ST A axis, for the prosecution, said, after the evidence which
had been given, it was not his intention to press the case as against
Bolton.

His Loa Siam, in summing up, said, he was sorry to say that
those riots had originated in great distress, but the law did not
admit of such an excuse. •
The Jury, having retired for a few minutes, found all the pri-
soners, with the exception of Bolton, Guilty, but recommended
them to mercy.

LOTU) ROSSICT-61-t-E.

The following Is an authorized statement of the affair between
Lord Rosemore and the ,Evening
Lord Rossmore having mad, a paragraph in the Mail of the id
instant, which lie considered as reflecting on friends of his who
were out of town, he deemed it' his duty to contradict thin parst--
graph in language,tliat could not be mistaken.—Lord RoSsmore
left a copy of his letter at the office of die Ei,eninti Mail, so that
the Eil;tor might publish it, or not, as he thought lit. His Lord-
ship conceived that it 'could be thus ascertained whether the Mail
had publialied the paragraph alluded to from authority, or not.
Lord Rosaniore having called at the Office on Monday, a person
appeared, whom the clerk informed his Lordsbip was the Editor.
He invited him to go up stairs, and Lord Rossmore having
reived Mr. Thomas, Beaty coming down, and, of course, appre.:
bending no foul play, followed the Editor. Upon arriving at the
room in which there were two other persons, one of them walked
up to his Lordship, and in a moat insolent manner demanded--.
" Why don't you take off your but where gentlemen are present ?"
Lord Rossulore perceived that lie was guilty, of error in going
into a room where two such gentle Men were, by himself, abut the
door quietly on them, and proceeded down stairs. :! The person
who had addresatil his Lordship before, disappointed that hil
eebenies had failed eueeeas, pulled the door open violently, and
porineil his Lordship to the head of the stairs, but no farther,
calling out, " Be gone, volt scoundrel! I'll kick you &own. etairt,
it' you remain another Moment—Ll'll kick you into the street, you
somuulrel !" " Kiek•the ruffian into the street," cried one of the

THE ARMY.

. 'GENERAL 'ORDER.
HOrse Guards, August 9, 1826.
Prom the irregular manner in which Regiments have recently
been found,to leave their ammunition behind them, upon a change
of Otters, the Commander-in7Cliief apprehends that COmmand-
ing Officers misunderstand the Regulations of the Army on this
head. In page 102 of the " Orders and Regulations of the
Artily," it is stated, that where there is more Ammunition than
can be' " conveniently removed with a Regiment, the Command-
ing Officer is to cause such ammunition to be-re-delivered into the
Ordnance Stores;" by which it must be understood, that it is in
no case to be left in quarters ; and further, that this delivery into
the Ordnance Stores can apply' only to circumstances wherein Re-
giments happen to be possessed of such a quantity of Ammuni-
tion as cannot be moved with the corps, and not to • the supply
issued half-yearly fits the immediate • use and service of the bat-
talion. His Royal Highness therefore desires, that when the
Spring and Autumn allowance of ammunition has been issued,
tipon the usual requisitions, Commanding Officer's be held respon-
sible for the preservation and carriage of all that has not been ex-
pended in the practice or service of the corps.
It is an essential part of the duty of Commanding Officers, and,
under thi,ir superintentlance, of Captains of CoMpanies, to 'see that
the immunition.in poesession of the men is properly preserved ;
and it is
,itnpyttant that soldiers should be habituated to the care
' of their amninnition, in proportion as they are taught to set a
high value upon it. When a regiment changes quarters, there-
fore, it is proper that a proportion of the ammunition should be
issued to the men, to be carried by them in their pouches, and
that any remaining in store should be conveyed in the usual man-
ner of other regimental stores, under the charge of the Quarter-
master.
By command of his RoyatHighness the Commander-in-Chief,
HENRY TORRENS, Adjutant-General.

The 19th (Ist York North Riding) and 86th (Royal County
Down) Ftegimenis of Toot, now stationed in Ireland, have received

At the opening this morning, the Market was
tranquil. Consols began at 77k, and at I'2 were
quoted 77k—but by 1 they had declined to 76i.
This reaction, was in consequence of a rumour
that ten millions of Exchequer Bills will be
taken out of the market—by a Loan ! Whatever
may be the present intention of Ministers, that, is
en inevitable expedient to which they must at
last resort. The continued pressure of these

to the application for throwing an additional
five millions into the scale.

DIALOGUE BETWEEN A SOVEREIGN AND A
ONE POUND NOTE.

" 0 cgs non Felix, gum tu fugis, ut pavet acres
" Agna lupos, capmeque lcones.".llea.

Said a Sovereign to a Note,
In the pocket of my coat,
Where they net, in a neat purse of leather,
" How happens it, I prithee,
" That, though I'm wedded with thee,
" Fair Pound, we can never live together ?

" Like your sex, fond of change,
" With Silver you can range,
" And of lots of young sixpences be mother;
" While with me—on my word,
" Not my Lady and my' Lord
" Of W—th see so little of each other !"

Th' indignant Note replied,
(Lying crumpled by WA aide)
" Shame, shame, it is yourself that roam, Sir—
" One cannot look askance,
" But, whip ! you're off to France,
" Leaving nothing but old rags at home, Sir.
" Your scampering began
" From the moment Parson Van,
" Poor man, made us one in Love's fetter,
For better or fur worse'
" Is the usual marriage UMW
" But ours is all • worse' mitt no better.'
" In vain are laws pass'd,
" There's nothing holds you fast,
" Tim' you know, sweet Sovereign, I adore you—
. " At the smallest hint in life,
" You forsake your lawful wife, •
" As other Sovereigns did before you.
"I flirt with Silver, true—
" ltut what can ladies do,
" When disown'd by their natural protector ?
" And as to falsehood, stuff!
" I shall soon be false enough,
" When I get among those wicked Bank Directots."
The Sovereign, smiling on her,
Now Swore, upon his honour,
To be henceforth domestic and loyal;
But, within an hour or two,
Why—l sold him to a Jew,
And he is now at No.lo, I'alais Royal.

GENTLEMEN,

my confidence in the reception you gave me, has con.
,%rmed my belief that the sacred trust of your representation
would never be delegated as a piece of family property.
The only grounds on which my adversary attempts to justify
his opposition, seem to be his relationship to your late excellent
Member. My prospects are founded on the great public cause
which I stepped forward to protect, and upon those principles
which it is wally my pride to assert, and your interest to
haintain.
I exhort, I intreat the remaining Freeholders of the County
to, secure me, by their unanimous Suffrages, from the dishy.
tour of being made a victim to broken promises and misplaced
confidence.
-I await your assistance, and look forward to victory.
I have the honour to remain, Gentlemen,
Your obliged and faithful servant,

Extracts lion: the Mornini Papers, Feb. 27) 1826.

[NEW Ti MEL:I
The Bill concerning Discriminating Duties,
which was read a third time in the American
Senate, on the. 28th ult., and is to be found at
length in oar Paper of Thursday last, is of great
commercial and political importance. In our
leading article of the Bth instant, we stated the
ground on which the United States were exclud-
ed (or rather excluded themselves) from the be.
nefits Of the reciprocity offered under stat. 6,
Gea. I V., c. 114. That ground, it will be re-
membered, was the imposition, by America, of a
duty of a dollar per ton on our Colonial vessels
more than on the vessels of some other nations.
The Bill, which has just passed the Senate, is, in
fact, a recantation of the offensive duty on
out shipping. We some time ago alluded to a
Report of a Committee of Congress preparatory
to this 13111; and although no mention is made in
it of British ships, or British Colonies, or any
thing British, there is no doubt that a view to
British objects produced the Bill. We own that
this circumstance affords us considerable pleasure.
It shews that the mutual interest of Great Britain
and the United States, which points so clearly to
a close commercial connection, begins to be felt,
as it ought to be felt, on both sides of the Atlan-
tic. It shews, too, that the course pursued by
his Majesty's Ministers, has had precisely the
effect which it was intended to produce. We
offered a fair Reciprocity ; but we adhered
firmly to the resolution of excluding from the
benefit of our liberal system, those nations
which would not grant us reciprocal benefits.
It is upon this same ground that we have placed
restrictions on the shipping of the Netherlands,
which do not exist as between us and France.
The recent French Treaty is perfectly recipro.
cal; and we• trust, that ere long, our trade with
the greater part of the globe w ill be placed on
a similar footing.

THE WORKS AT THE NEW LONDON BRIDGE,

The erection of this public fabric proceeds with great
rapidity. The centres for the second arch are nearly
finished, and are visible over the parapets of the old
bridge. The mode by which these.centres are constructed
is very ingenious. The wood and iron-work is formed
and put together at, Messrs. Jolliffe and Banks' establish-
ment, at the Isle of Dogs, where the sections of the centre
are finished ready for placing in position at the new bridge.
These gigantic pieces'of wood-work, forming a semi-cirele,
are then floated to about .50 yards above the site of the
new bridge on the Surrey side, where two barges are
moored to each other. The barges are so constructed as
to admit, as the tide falls, a body of water, by which they
are nearly filled, and thus brought almost to a level with
the surface of the river; the centres are then, by the ope-
ration of powerful machinery, first brought horizontally on
to the barges, and' then, by the same agency, raised per-
pendicularly across the' Middle of them, and secured in
that position. As the tide rises, the water is let out of
the barges, and at high water they are floated down to
the works where the arch is to be turned: The state of
the tide at this juncture is such, as to bring the centres,
thus temporarily fixed on the barges, almost even with the
piers on which they are to be-based.; and, by the opera-
tion of powerful mechanism, these ponderous centres
(each weighing nearly .40 tons) are plated- in their posi-
tion at the new bridge.

The celerity with which the works proceed, must he
no less satisfactory to the public; than creditable to the
contractors ;. and although the period at which the New
London Bridge is stipulated to be finished embraces (we
believe) four or five years from this time, there is, from
appearances, every probability that it will be erected
before that period, as the first arch will, we learn, be
turned by the close of the present year,

AFFRAY AT DONNYROOK.

Two men Were severely beaten at-Donnybrook Fair on
Thursday night. One of them, named John Murphy, a
labourer, while lying in a state of intoxication, had his
skull fractured with the blow a spade. The unfortu-
nate man has been removed to Mercer's Hospital. The
brain had been exposed where the fracture occurred, and
no hopes are entertained of his recovery.
The affray in which this unfortunate man received his
death-blow, originated between two parties in one of the
tents, relative to priority at a dance. One party insisted
on their right of precedence, because they had paid the
music money ; the 'otber contended upon their paramount
claim, being in possession of the field. From words they
came to blows, and a man named Breen hit one of the
opposite party, -whose name is Connor, with a quart. A
scuffle ensued—the candles were put out, and in the affray
the skull of Murphy, who, it appears, is Connor's father-
in-law, who was lying in the corner of the tent in a state
of intoxication, was cleft open by a spade. Several of
the persons engaged in this affray have been taken up,
and the Magistrates of College-street , Police-office were
occupied several hours yesterday in investigating the

WZDNESDAy—(szcolan DAY)--..AVC. 9.

The case of Smith v. Hodgett and Others, was this day
resumed. The Court was not so crowded at an early
hour as on the former day, but it was filled to excess, and
the interest was manifested until a late hour at night,
when the case was again adjourned, the Judge reserving
his charge until to-morrow.
Mr. Taunton said, that he had to address the Jury in
behalf of the defendants, who were persons filling a very
respectable situation in society, and engaged in the publi.
canon of a newspaper, which was a reputable profession.
The defendants were the proprietors of a respectable
newspaper, which was only recently established, called
The Birminigham Journal. It was necessarily published
at some distance from the place where the Smith
family resided, and the defendants- were so entirely un-
acquainted with these people, that not a shadow of
malice could be imputed to .their statement respecting
them in the newspaper; The publication had occurred
in the usual course of business, at a moment when
the case had excited much attention in Shropshire.—
They had collected, as they were bound to do, the best
information they could respecting it; in doing this they
had merely done their duty, and not gone out of their
proper sphere. He did not stand there as the advocate of
every thing which found its way into the columns of a
newspaper ; but surely the conductors of these most useful
vehicles of public intelligence must have'some allowances
made for them m a scrutiny of their business—the hurry
of publication, the necessity of their Journal being pub-
lished at particular moments, the laudable desire to rye
early intelligence; all these essential circumstances ex-
posed them to occasional mistakes, which ought not to be
too invidiously weighed. The business of a Journalist
was to impart instruction and information to the public re-
specting the passing occurrences of the day; and if it were
o be expected from them, that their descriptions of every
occurrence were to be couched in terms as minutely ac
curate as special pleadings, then the Jury might scoop pre...

" BARBAROUS ATROCITT.

" We noticed in a former number an instance of horrid atrocity
stated to have been committed by a brother and sister upon their
insane elder brother. There was something so revolting to human
nature in the account, that we trusted it was false, and should
have discredited the facts altogether, had it not been positively
stated that the sufferer was rescued and removed to the Staffordshire
Lunatic Asylum. We extracted the particulars from the Salopian
Journal, and the circumstances were said to have taken place near
the borders of that county. A contradiction of the transaction
has since been inserted in the Shrewsbury Chronicle but we
confess we are not, in reading that contradiction, any more inclined
to doubt the truth of the previous statement, u it appeared to be
written by 'tome of the parties implicated, and a threat was held
out to newspapers generally, if they did not contradict the former
account. W. have this week received a communication from a
very respectable correspondent, residing near the spot, corroborating
in all the main points the horrid narrative given; by the Salo-
pion Journal ; and though there might be scarcely a line of truth
in the whole tale, the acts of unnatural cruelty to which the poor
sufferer was exposed, are not only =firmed, but aggravated.--
Relying upon the veracity of our correspondent, we shall insert his
communication verbatim, regardless of the threats held out in
order to prevent this horrid transaction from being brought to
light

" The account of an atrocity discovered an the borders of
Shropshire, as copied into the Birmingham Journal from another
paper, is not in all its particulars quite correct. The circum-
stance is no secret, since it is made the general topic of convey-
sation throughout the neighbourhood. Mucklostone Wood is si-
tuated about a quarter of a mile from the Loggerheads public-
house, at which the two turnpike-roads from Eccleshall to and
from Newcastle to Market-Drayton cross each other ; and the house,
which is large, and of respectable appearance, is inhabited by two
of the name of Srntth, and the
bachelors and a maiden sister,
lunatic is their elder brother. The communication Wu first made
to a Mr. Eld, brother of the Magistrate of that name, and be, with
the Rev. H. D. Broughton, a Magistrate of the neighbourhood,
Ampanied by a constable ofMucklestone, broke into the garret,
where the lunatic was confined. The cry which he uttered
an beholding the light was that of horror, but it does not appear

STATE OF THE CITY OF DUBLIN.

The city was yesterday kept in a state of considerable agitation,
from the great assemblages of unemployed people, and from the
disposition manifested to riot and pillage. At an early hour in
the morning, several bakers carrying out bread in the liberty were
attacked, and the bread taken from them ; the provision-shops,
being closed, escaped pillage. The appearance of a strong party
of police had the effect of dispersing the mob ; but throughout
the day the bakers in that neighbourhood could not venture to
send out their bread without an escort of police.
About twelve o'clock the deptit of the Rifle brigade, which was
marching into town from Naas, was followed by a mob of two
or three hfindred persons, chiefly boys, until they reached the bar-
racks in Gaorgels-street ; they went into Exchequer-street, where
a quantity of bread and some money was thrown to them from
some of the bakers' shops. They then went through Grafton-
street, and into King street, where a party of police from College-
street came up with and dispersed them.
While these scenes were passing, a number of personS were col-
lected about the
Royal Exchange. About one o'clock, the Ron.
Colonel Gore came out from the Relief Committee, told read to
them the resolutions that had been passed ; upon which. a general
murmur o 1 disapprobation ran through the crowd, and a man
called out I'll not agree to it, by J
, I'll have bread or blood."
He was immediately taken into custody,
and brought to the head-
Office ; his name is Edward Walsh, a labourer • he hes been. re-
manded for a further examination.
Between six and seven o'clock, there was some rioting inLower
Stephen-street ; two of the horse-patrol, and some of the into,.
bitants interfered,
when the police were assailed with stones, and.
otne of them
received a severe blow. They succeeded in taking
into custody, one of whom was afterwards rescued from

WOMAN BURNT TO DEATH.--On Saturday
afternoon, between one and two o'clock, a woman of the name
of the name of Johnson, ono of the nurses of Greenwich Hos.
vital, was burnt to death, in the following dreadful manner
rho unfortunate woman who resided near the College, went
home on SaturdAY morning, and after having dinner with her
husband, the latter went out, leaving his wife sitting by the
tire. A short time after he had gone out, some persons in
the house were alarmed by the fa-int cries of Mrs. Johnson,
and, on proceeding to the room, found her burnt in a most
shocking manner, and the poker lying close by her side, which
it is supposed fell out of the grate, and set. fire to the poor
woman's clothes while she was asleep. She was conveyed to
Greenwich Hospital, but, after an hour's excruciating suffer-
ing, expired.
