BRIGTITON RACES, which take place on the 25th, 26th, and
27th inst. are likely to prove more attractive than ever known.
The sports, from the great number of horses of first-rate re-
pute which arc to run, are , expected to be excellent, and the
turf is in good order. Ilis Niajesty, it is said, will be prsent
on the last day. Brighton is filling very fast, but lodgings as
yet are very reasonable.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
BOW-STREET.— Yesterday Hugh Rogers, a
young man of respectable appearance,was brought up in custo-
dy of Salmon, one of the principal officers, by whom he was ap-
prehended on Sunday last, under a charge of obtaining money
under false pretences. The charge was for defrauding George
Dykes, a labouring carpenter, residing in Fisher-street, Bed
Lion-square, of two bills of exchange for 601. each, which he
had been induced to give to the prisoner, in consequence of his
representation that he would obtain for him a. situation in the
Excise. This however he failed to do, and refused to return
the bills ; upon which Dykes obtained a warrant against him,
and had him apprehended. He was remanded until Thursday.
MARLBOROUGH STREET.—A boy of 15 years of age was
charged with robbing a Lady of the name of Manning of her
ridicul?, containing two sovereigns. The- prosecutrix was
attacked at mid-day in High-street, St. Giles's' by the pri-
soner and another boy, who snatched the -ridicule from her.
The prisoner was secured by Bartlett, the beadle: He was fully
committed for trial. •

The LORD CHANCELLOR, we are sorry to
state 7 sprained his ancle at the Coronation. His
_ _

Lordship sent a message yesterday morning to
Lincoln's Inn Hall, stating that he should not
be able to sit in the Court of Chancery for some
days.
PREFERMEN T.—The Rev. Dr. Rudge, of Limehouse, wrs
on Tuesday unanimously elected by the inhabitants-of St. Se-
pulchre to succeed the late Rev. Air. Moore as Sunday Evening
Preacher or Lecturer.

T wen ty-fi ve of the Yeomen of the Guards, and
twenty of the Gentlemen Pensioners, are said to
be selected to accompany his MAJESTY to Ireland.
DO VVTON is now making a professionatour in

the northern part of the kingdom. Last week
he made his first appearance at the Newcastle
Theatre, ,in the character of Sir Anthony Ab-
solute.

ST. PETER'S Fisu.—The two dark spots a
little behind its head, are supposed to have gained
the Haddock, in the days of superstition, the
credit of being the fish which ,St. Peter caught
with the tribute money in its mouth ; in proof of
which the impression of the Saint's finger and
thumb has been entailed on the whole race of
Haddocks ever since. But, " Adhuc sub judice
lis est," as, unfortunately for the tradition, the
Haddock is not a Mediterranean fish ; nor can
we suppose it to have belonged to the lake Ti-
berias. The truth is, the Italians consider a very d;f-
ferent fish, as that which -was sanctified by the
Apostle ; and which after him they honour with
the name of II Janitore ; a name that we have con-
verted into Johnny Dory, with the'-same happy
ingenuity that has twisted the girasole or turnsol
into a Jerusalem Artichoke.
