There are at present three coaches running
daily between Gainshorough and Lincoln, upon a road
without a turnpike gate.—Hull Packet.
On Wednesday our town wore rather a de-
serted appenancs, in consequence of the numbers of its in-
habitants who had proceeded to Beverley, to enjoy the anti-
cipated sport at the races. In the hurry and bustle of
starting, several slight accidents occurred. An extremely
fit gentleman was spilled from a gig, through driving
against a post, some seven feet high, in the Market-place,
which, in his anxiety to push forward to the race course,
he had overlooked. He was fortunately but little injured ;
and some of his waggish .acquaintance placed in the hands
of the town bellman, a ludicrous notice connected with the
occurrence, which was cried through the street•, to the
great amusement, no doubt, of the projectors of the joke.—
Hull Packet.
On the 16th instant a fishing boat, belonging
to Yealm, on it way to that place, when about a mile off
the land, owing to a sudden gust of wind, upset and went
down. The two men belonging to her, not being pre-
pared for the accident were thrown into the sea, without
a board or any thing to assist them in endeavouring to
preserve their lives. One of the hands, named WA urEr.
IloncE, not being able to swim, was soon exhausted, and
was observed by his companion, who was a very expert
swimmer, to be sinking ; he said to Lim, " Bear up
WALTER;" when he replied, "Lord have mercy upon
me, lam going ;" and, with these words on his lips, the
poor fellow sunk to rise no more. Foi tunately the Harpy
The Vicar of Croydon, with other Monks tender was cruising within a short distance of the boat
and Priests, were so alarmed when the Scriptures first ap- when the accident happened, ann, observing the disaster,
peared in a printed volume, that the former thus expressed instantly launched a boat, which was manned and dis••

THE SACRED CALENDAR OF
pilOPHEcy.
By GEORGE STANLEY FABER, B.D.
Rector of Long Newton.

4t,,0f The object of this Work is to combine together the
various Prophecies both of the Old and of the New Testa-
ment, which treat of the grand double PERIOD of
SEVEN TIMES : a period, coinciding with those times
of the Gentiles, which, Evolving in strict chronological
succession, are thence justly styled by Mede The Sacred
Calendar of Prophecy. In the present both muds more
extensive and much snore complete Work, the author has
been enabled, at once to rectify various errors in his pre-
ceding publications, and to give a better arrangement (ex-
tending down to the present day) of that part of the pro-
phetic volume which he believes to have been already un-
folded.

Printed fur C. and J. Rivington, St. Paul's Church-
;aril, and -Waterloo-place, Pall-mall; of whom may be
had all of Mr. Faber's other Works.
