THE SUN, LONDON,_ WEDNESDAY MORNING SEPTEMBER 14, 1842,

remove the obstacles which have hitherto existed to
the performance of this noble work in its original
form. This is to be followed by a miscellaneous part,
comprising songs and choruses by Handel, Mozart,
Haydn, Mendelsohn, Gugliehni, Dr. Chard, and
G. Perry.
The evening's performances are to consist on the
first evening, of Handers ode, " Alexander's Feast,"
and a Miscellaneous Part; on the second evening of
Haydn's " Seasons ;" and on the third evening of
Romberg's " Song of the Bell," and a short Miscel-
laneous Selection.

Too much praise cannot be awarded to this attempt
to make an evening concert something like a rational
entertainment. One complete work like those an-
nounced to be performed at the evening Concerts of
this festival is worth at least twenty times the value
of concerts, at which the .most trifling songs, from
the most flimsy of Italian operas, wrenched, too, from
their appropriate situations without the least regard
to their fitness for the concert-room, form the staph
commodity. It is to be hoped that this spirited at-
tempt will he rewarded with the success it deserves.
A very prominent feature of this festival is the
national character which it assumes, the Directors'
' having determined that the whole of the singers
should be English. This deterMination has been
come to, not from any _illiberal prejudice against j
foreigneys, but from. the fact that the attraction of 1
Italian singers was never sufficient to cover the ad-
ditional;expense occasioned by the extravagant terms
demanded, by them.
It must not :be forgotten that the present meeting
will he held in the nave of the Cathedral instead of i
the choir, as heretofore, and that the new organ just
erected for the Cathedral by Hill, will be opened 'en
the occasion.

Monday. This match emanated from the St. John's
Westminster regatta, contested about a month ago ;
on that occasion the first prize was won by Goodrum
and his partner, and Royal and Swaine, who were
lotted together, did, not start owing to an opinion that
the men would be brought back .to make a fresh heat.
A great deal of altercation took place, and the present
match for 20/. was the result, and both parties went
into training. Betting was 5 and 6t04 in favour of
Hunt and his partner. At a- little after' five both
boats came to the starting place to row from West-
minster-bridge to Putney with the tide. Royal won
the choice of station, awl took the Middlesex side.
After a few strokes Hunt and his partner took the
lead and maintained it throughout, winning easily, and
never giving their opponents a shadow of chance.
GENTLEMEN SCIJLLERS' CONTEST.--A very excel-
lent match took place on Monday evening, from West-
minster-bridge to Putney, with tide, between Mr.
Allen and Mr. Embrey, two gentlemen amateurs,
who have acquired some reputation as first-rate
scullers. It was a very pretty and game contest, and
drew a good company to witness it. Mr. Allen had
the ch.nce of station, and they both started away at
the same second. Mr. Embrey, after rowing a few
strokes, dashed oil with the lead, but in the course of
a few minutes ,discovered that his opponent was not
so easily shaken oft: In the reach above Vauxhall-
bridge, Mr. Allen challenged him, and, after a very
spirited pull up to the Red House, endeavoured to
get by. Mr. Embrey was in his course, and Mr.
Allen, scientifically touching him on his quarter,
canted him athwart the tide and got the lead. Mr.
Allen, after this, retained it, his opponent not being
able to overtake him, and won easily.

ADELAIDE GALLERY.

In addition to the other attractions of this delight-
ful lounge, there is a grand Promenade Concert
every evening, supported by some of the best per-
formers of the day, vocal and instrumental. Among
the solo performers we have Mr. Laurent on the cor-
nopean, Mr. Saynor on the flute, young Blagrove on
the concertina, Mr. G. Tyler. on the clarionet, and
Mr. Catchpole on the horn ; whilst among the vo-
calists we find Mrs. Wilson, Miss Thornton, Miss
Tyler, Mr. Martin, and Mr. R. F. Smith. The first
of these concerts commenced on Monday evening,
under the able superintendence of Mr. T. Julian
Adams, who presided at the grand pianoforte. The
performances consisted of a selection of favourite
overtures, quadrilles, . and waltzes, with solo parts
for the different instrumentalists, and of guar-

CORONS INQUEST.
SUICIDE BY A PROFESSOR OF Mustc.—Yesterday
morning, at ten, an inquest was held at the Board-
room of Middlesex Hospital, before Thomas Wakley,
Esq., M:P., the Coroner, on view of the body
of Mr. John Taylor, aged 62 years, a professor of
music, who committed suicide under the following
circumstances :—The deceased, a widower, resided at
No. GO, William-street, Albany-street, Regent's-
Park, and was in very comfortable circumstances.
Latterly he has become very strange and eccentric in
his manner, and laboured under the delusion that a
crowd of persons were continually followinc, him
about and slandering him. At times he stated that
the persecution he endured was such that he wished
he—was dead; and at others he would say that
he knew it was a delusion, but he could not divest
himself of it. On Saturday last, having remained in
his bed-room until a much later hour than usual, one
of the inmates proceeded to call him, when he was heard
groaning. On entering his room he was found
in an insensible state, and about the apart-
ment were three bottles, which had con-
tained laudanum. He was immediately brought to
this hospital, but although the stomach-pump was used
and electro-galvanism applied, he expired shortly
afterwards. On his- dressing-tuble was found a note,
in his own hand-writing, addressed "To the Coroner."
The contents were as follow:—" My persecutors
and slanderers have at length induced me tocoMmit this
most horrible crime. I could bear it no longer. I
call God to witness that this is the truth. I have no
care for man, but with the Deity these words will not
avail."—Verdict, " Temporary mental derangement."
A lengthened inquiry was yesterday gone into
before Mr. Carter, Coroner for Surrey, at the Angel
public-house, Rotherhithe, concerning the death of
Mr. Joseph Paul, aged 39, late master of the brig
Eden, of Newcastle, who was unfortunately drowned
a week ago by his boat being capsized in a collision
with the Waterman steam-boat No. 2, while off Cole-
stairs, Shadwell:

Much excitement was produced by the accident,
and the inquest-room was crowded with persons inte-
rested in the proceedings, amongst whom were the
Harbour Masters of the Port of London, and others
connected with the navigation of the river.
Mr. Pelham attended to watch the proceedings on
the part of deceased's friends, and Mr. Newbone, soli-
citor to the Watermen's Company, for the captain of
the steam-boat.

House, where Thirsk took the command, followed by
Pagan, Brother to Garland now being up with Dis-
closure, Galaor, Charles XII., and Little Wonder.
Thirsk resigned his position at the road, fell astern, and
the lead was taken by Brother to Garland, followed by
Disclosure and Galaor ; these three joining issue at the
distance, made a pretty race to the corner of the Gravid
Stand enclosure ; Galaor then dropt off, Disclosure
was beaten before they cleared the rails, and the light
weight ran in a very easy winner by a length. Little
Wonder came with a rush at the last and saved his mas-
ter's stake, Disclosure beating him, by a length, for
second. Galaor was a bad fourth, and Charles XII.
the fifth ; the others were tailed off an immense distance.
Value of the stakes 1,3201.
Her Majesty's Plate of 100 guineas; 3 yrs, 7st 91b; 4 yrs,
9st ; 5 yrs, 9st 91b ; 6 yrs and aged, 10st ; four miles.

Mr. Gascoyne's Jack Sheppard, 4 yrs - 2
Mr. Osbaldestone's Woldsman, 3 yrs 3
Even on Jack Sheppard, who made the running for
the first round ; it was then taken up by Woldsman,
who maintained it till near the distatice, where Jack
Sheppard resumed his lead, Moss Trooper taking the
second place. Half way up the distance the latter went
in front, and won in a canter by two lengths.

Samuel Johnson, a seaman on board the Eden,
was examined, and deposed, that, on Tuesday, the
6th inst., the captain, himself, and two lads, had come
up from Long Reach in the jolly-boat of the Eden,
and went to Brewer's-wharf, Shadwell, and took in
two casks of beer. The captain went to the brokers
respecting the cargo, and when he returned they put
off to go down to the ship again, the captain steering,
and the other three rowing. The boat had left the
shore, and was shooting out of the tier, for the pur-
pose of crossing to the Surrey side, where there was
a steam-boat towing down a schooner and a sloop, to
which the captain intended to make fast so as to be
towed. down. When the boat had cleared the tier
about two boats length, one of the boys told the cap-
tain that a steamer was coming, which at that time
was not More than four or five boats' length from
her. The captain called out to, the mate of the
steamer to stop, but witness was not sure whether she
was stopped or not. The master of the steam-boat
waved his hand directly he saw the boat, directing her
to go to the northward, but the captain said, " Pull
away, or we shall catch it," or something to that ef-
fect, and the boat was pulled straight on, the captain
thinking she would get clear of the steamer. Before
the boat could get out of the way the steamer struck
her on the starboard quarter in a sliding position, and
she immediately capsized, when they were all thrown
into the water, and the.captain was drowned.
Mr. William Tanner, shipwright, of Cherry-gar-
den-stairs, deposed to seeing the accident.- The
steamer was going at a fast rate, and was decidedly
too near the tier on the north shore. Witness saw

most likely, would not have occurred. There could
not have been more than ten feet hetween the steamer
and the tier. The captain was standing up in the
boat before and after the collision, and until the boat
sank, which was about two minutes after she was
struck. The bow of the boat struck the captain's face
very violently. The speed was not taken off the
steamer for more than a minute after she struck the
boat. Had the helm been put a little starboard, the
steamer could have passed.
'A number of other witnesses were examined, when
the Jury, after deliberating for 'nearly an hour, re-
turned a verdict of—Accidental death, with a deodand
of 2601. on the steam-boat.

CAUTION TO MAIHNERS-IMPORTANT DIS-
COVERIES.
The Pearl, Burrows, arrived in theDowtis from China,
reports on her voyage from
Sydney to Manilla, having,
on the 24th September, discovered an island not laid down
in the charts ; it lies in lat. 21, 59 S., lon. (by good chro-
nometers), 168 30 E. ; it is a fine looking island, well
wooded, with cocoa nut trees close to the beach. At
noon we were within three niiles of the east point, which
is in the middle of the island ; off the point a
reef projects about a mile to seaward ; it stretches
in aN. by E. direction 20 to 25 miles, the captain sup-
posing it to be a new discovery, named it Burrows
Island. Two days after we made the Island of Erro.
manga, which proved the chronometers to be correct.
After we got to the northward of the N.E. point, we saw
land stretching a great distance to the N. W., it appeared
to be detached from the first island, but night coining on
we could not ascertain. On April 4, in sailing down the
China Sea, we observed the bottom quite plain ;we
sounded in nine fathoms and found the bottom to be
coral. This bank is not laid down in a chart of 1840 ;
the bank is in lat 7 36 N., lon. 111 28 E., by two good
chronometers and lunar taking the day before.
Although we had nine fathoms water, there may be less
in some parts, and requires a good look out in this part
of the China sea.

that the above vessel had been raised from the bottom of
Malmo roads, by means of a diving Apparatus, invented
by Count de Wenkerheing. The masts, sails, and rig..
ging are stated to be in good condition., Iu the hold
were discovered three skeletons, and the body of a man
in nearly a perfect state of preservation. The Magnet,
(built of oak,) mounting 18 guns, foundered in the above
roads in the year 1809, thus making the time of her lying
under water a period of 33 years.

TRADESMAN AN]) OPERATIVE
PROTESTANT ASSOCIATION.
The second annual demonStration of this Associa-
tion came off last night,- at Exeter Hall, when a very
large number of persons assembled for the purpose of
hearing the Report read, and a speech from the Rev.
Hugh Stowell. Great pains had been taken, and no
expense spared, to get together a tolerable concourse
on this occasion, and, as far as numbers were con-
cerned, the Society was certainly pretty successful,
but we must observe that the proportion of females to
males was at least in the ratio of twenty to one.
Benjamin Bond Cabbell, Esq. presided.
The CHAIRMAN, in opening the business of the
night, remarked that it was very pleasing to observe
so many people now assembled. •He then struck
away from the Protestant Association, and observed
that the present Government was the best Government
under Heaven, and he hoped that all before him would
assist that Government in preserving peace and order
at a time of, he might almost say, anarchy and dis-
orderi .when so many persons stepped out of their Own'
spheres,: and rushed into matters of which they had no
knowledge, for the purpose of disturbing the public'
`peace. • •- ' " • •
The Report Was 'read' By the SeCrettir3-. - "It did-not
speak in very high terms of the flottrishinir condition
of the Society, or 'of any' increase lately in the
number of its members, or in the amount of its sub-
scriptions. The !mat gun of the night was the Rev.
Hugh Stowell. IV e' did not, indeed, observe any other
eminent man on the platforna. •
Mr. SrowEnn, in an eloquent, though as intole-
rant a speech as ever we heard, moved a resolution, to
the effect that the increased efforts of the Church of
Rome to re-establish her heretical system in our
land, in defiance of the existing laws of the country,
called for the most strenuous,_ bold, and energetic
measures from the Protestant Operatives of England,
and all well-wishers to the peace and welfare of their
country.
Several other gentlemen, both reverend and lay-
men, followed ; several resolutions condemnatory of
Popery, &c., were passed, and the meeting broke up
at an early hour.
The enthusiasm of the audience was by no means
so great as we have witnessed on former occasions at
this Hall. Had it not been, indeed, for the exertions
of a number of men stationed throughout the meet-
ing with long staves in their hands ,who clapped their
hands, stamped with their feet, and thumped with
their sticks when a good thing was said, scarce a clap
or a mark of approbation would have been heard.

CHARTIST MEETINGS.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
Sm,—Much indignation and regret has lately been
expressed upon the conduct of the Magistrates and
police, in preventing the public meetings of the
Chartists. I most cordially join in expressing my
regret, that any steps should be taken to prevent the
expression of public opinion ; but the late conduct of
the Chartists at public meetings, has very much dis-
gusted the middle classes, and most respectable
members of society, and made them lukewarm in
their favour.

I am myself one of the middle class, and attended
several Anti-Corn-law meetings, with the sole object
of benefiting the working classes, by opposing the
impolitic, unjust, and iniquitous Corn-laws. Upon
all these occasions, the Chartists most rudely and vio-
lently interrupted the proceedings. They would not
allow any discussion on the subject, and always dis-
turbed the meetings by introducing an amendment,
to the effect " that they could not expect any re-
dress, or justice, till the Charter became the law of
the land."

The Chartists are now treated in their own way
by the police, who will not allow them to express
their opinions in public ; and I hope the lesson will
not be lost upon them. I detest tyranny of any
kind, but if I must submit to it I would rather prefer
the tyranny of a Government to that of the Char-
tists. Let us hope they will grow wise by experi-
ence, and in future allow other persons to express
opinions, though they may not be in accordance with
their own.

The attempt of the Tory papers to connect the late
disturbances in the manufacturing districts with the
Anti-Corn-law League is too ridiculous to require re-
futation, for the great majority of the members of the
League are deeply interested in promoting the or-
derly, good conduct of the workmen. The real
authors of the disturbances were the monopolist
landlords, and they, and they only, are responsible for
the consequences. It is difficult to say whether their
selfishness exceeds their ignorance, for in making laws
to benefit themselves, to the injury of other classes,
they are not aware that this injury must ultimately
recoil upon themselves, for if the manufacturers cannot
support or employ their workmen the land must.
Your most obedient servant.

CHARGE OF SWINDLING,

At the Cambridge Petty Sessions on Monday,
Eliza Denman, otherwise Demman, wife of Mr. John
Denman, formerly Fellow Commoner of St. John's
College, an illegitimate son of an ,uncle of Lord
Denman, was charged with having fraudulently ob-
tained 201. from Messrs. Matthews and Gent, grocers,
by falsely representing herself the sister of the Hon.
Richard Denman, one of the soils of the Lord Chief
.1 ustice.

The Court was crowded, as it was understood the
present case was but a prelude to many of a similar
nature.

Mr. John Gent stated that he was in copartnership
with David Matthews, grocer. Knew Mr. Richard
Denman, of Trinity College, when he obtained his
degree of 13. A. some years ago. He was a customer of
the firm while in College, which he left four or five
years since. He is the son of Lord Denman. Saturday
last Mrs. Denman came to the shop and spoke to wit-
ness, saying, " You don't know me, perhaps ; but you
knew my brother, Richard Denman, of Trinity Col-
lege." Witness replied, " Yes, I knew him, but not
you." She then said, "Mr. Richard Denman was a cus-
tomer of yours," and asked witness to cash a draft from
15/. to 201. A stamp was procured, and Mrs. Denman
wrote a cheque on James Hamilton and Co. for 201,,
signed Eliza Denman. Upon this witness gave her 404 in
money. Witness parted with the money in cause-
quence of her having stated herself to be ihe sister of
the Hon. Richard Denman. The cheque was taken
to London by Mr. John Matthews, and returned by
him this morning, he not being able to get cash for it.
I had no means of knowing at the time that her state-
ment was false. I afterwards went to Mr Richard
Denman's brother, and he told me he had no sister of
that name. A witness who went to London to ascer-
tain if the drawer of the draft was known, deposed
that he presented it at 2, Henrietta-street, Covent-
garden, and that the money► was not paid.
The Hon. George Denman having been sworn
said—l am a member of Trinity College, a bachelor.
I am a son of Lora Denman, and brother of the Hon.
Richard Denman. My brother took his degree in
1825, and shortly afterwards left the College, Mrs.
Denman is not personally known to me, but I do
know the fact that she is not one of my brother
Richard's sisters. I have six sisters, and have not
one named Eliza. _ _

Cross-examined—l know that there is a Nfr John
Denman, an illegitimate son of my ft‘thee*
Mr. Cooper, for the acellseci, V4lllO Airs, R, Pratt,
who deposed that she knew Mrs. Denman about seven
years slue; she lodged at witness's house. She is
