BANKRUPTCY SU I'EIL4EDED.

A well-contested boxing match of about half an
ifour's continuance, between a professed pugilist and
a countryman, greatly amused the amateurs of that
science at the Tnnbridge-Wells races. The 'country-
man,
.though he was good bottom, was obliged to
yield to the superior skill of his adversary.

Friday last, being the first day of the anniv
festival of Strood Fair, the same was observed
mite's mirth and jollity, and was attended as usual by
a vast crowd of company, amongst which were several
adepts from the metropolis, well skilled in the slight of
band mysteries of picking pockets. Two of these am-
lpidextrous proficient' were detected with their hands
its pockets not their own, before they could secure the
contents of them, and were sesererely pumped on by
the enraged populace as to be nearly suffocated before
they could obtain their liberty. Two others of the
lame. fraternity were also more fully detected,_and
taken into custody by, some peace-officers, who had
been stationed at the Fair by the direction of J. Stst-
-140N4 Esq. the Mayor of Rochester, for the pre4er-
Tation of good order.
Oneof them named Read, alias Mite, was brought
up for examination at Chatham, charged with being
in the act of taking some bank notes from the pocket
of Mr. Cfil TTENDEN, of Stapichurst, when Mr. C.
caught him by the hand, secured hint, and gave him
in charge to the Congtable ; the fact being clearly
proved, he was' committed to Maidstone. In the
course of his examination, he acknowledged that he
bad several confederates, and he believed there were
not fewer than between forty and fifty persons of
sitlni-
lar pursuits in the fair. From want of evidence% the
examinasion of his fellow prisoner was delarml till
next day.
A few days since, as the-Clerk of Eastbourne was
tolling the bell for a funeral, he had scarcely got it to
its height, when part of the framing on which the bells
were tixod gave way, and to the alarm of the Clerk
and others who were present, the bell forced its way
through two boarded lofts, struck the kirb of the arch
of the belfry, and came down with such force, that it
p4netrated through the stone pavement upwards of a
foot into the ground. Fortunately no person received
any injury, although several were standing near at the
time.

MADAME TAY.T.IEN, &C.-•.-GENUINE ANECDOTES.—
This much talked-of Lady is little taller than the
common height, rather stout, fine brisk eyes, and
an agreeable countenance : she might be termed a
desirable woman. Her hair is cut all round :_ it, is
44, and without powder. At the Opera she
wears neither hat nor cap, and appears like a
Grecian bust. From the part she acted in the Re,
Tolution, she would leant a bold intriguing iv-o-
man, but the is not so. In affairs of gallantry she
may practise some art, but in politics she does not
interfere often, though the part she acted has
teemed with the most important consequences. Ro-
bespierre was in the zenith of his Dictatorial au-
thority. Her father was Minister of the Spanish
Court. It is said, .that he requested his daughter,
with whom Tallien was enamoured, to exercise her
influence with him to pull down the Tyrant. She
promised to gratify Tallien's love, if he effected. Ro.
hespierre's destruction ; if he did not attempt it, he
was to see her no more. Tallien had a stronger
' motive for this attempt ; he had discovered, from a
memorandum paper of proscription which Robes.
pipit had dropped (or, like another Brutus, it was
thrown iu,Tallienas way to incite him), that he was'
not exempted from the fate that had befallen his
colleagues ; this decided him ; he attacked the Dic. i
tater at the Tribune. Robespierre had many ene.l
mies ; his crimes, or fear of him, had made them I
so; yet that fear had made them silent, till they
could see which side would preponderate. The
tontest was a long while precarious ; all the Sections
arose ; neighhout was against neighbour ; and the
Constituted Authorities against the Convention.—
Tallien had gone too far to recede : he darted 'again
to the Tribune, drew a dagger on the Tyrant, in-
spired his party, and Robespierre was dragged to
441-4914.v/here, at first, the gaoler was afraid to re. 1
koelis'e him. After the death of Robespierre, she
linlAfricfl Tallien, but from whom, however, she .iu a
*f.r4c yews was divorced by the new laws. Sig. b4s.
