THE SPENCEANS.

O,:tOM A CORREsPUNDI,NT.)

This contemptible set seem to be again raring
their ; it woald appear that no ki,14,ne!,5 or
mercy, nor in tact any thing but the powurrni
arm of coercion, can kt.ep within due limits this,
although at present small, dangerous set 01 Fana-
tics. Last night a consideralde nu mber of them
assembled at a house, the sign of the Mulberry
Tree, in the vicinity of Moortields, for the par-
pose, as was said, of celebrating the Anniversary
of the person (Thomas Spence) by whose name
they have chosen to designate themselves. This
Meeting has been announced by adveriseniciu iu
soave of the Morning Papers ; the elder Eaana
was in the Chair. After three toasts had been
given, which we shall not insult the eyes of one
Readers by repeating, and souse observations had
passed respecting the clef-and Schoolmaster,
young Evans rose to make what he called a
speech, hut which %vas, in fact, nothing but
a continuation of the expression of that ingrati-
tude that has marked the previous conduct of this
misguided young man towards the principal con-
servator of the public peace. The Elder Leans
next took on himself to address what he called
the " Philanthropists," but we cannot place hu-
man nature on so low a scale of degradation as to
suppose this man sincere, unless we consider hint
AS a lunatic. lie appears to indulge himself in
the idea, that without the aid of the divine inspi-
ration of Moses, or the fanaticism produced by the
impostures of Alahomet, he may become the
founder of a Religious and Political Sect of equal,
celebrity, and actually regulates the appointment
of the persons as to numbers, in conformity to the
regulations adopted by those distingukhed per-
sonages. A man who it appears has taken out a.
license, in order that he may disseminate his
blasphemies with more security, also spoke, and,
upon being nominated as Steward for the next
Anniversary, said, " No, d—toe ! I will not, I
am a Bishop !" At a late, 'or rather an early
hour this morning, this Meeting separated—not,
however, till a considerable stun had been col-
lected for the purpose of printing and distributing
their books, songs, &c., and also for assisting its
the support of the Chapel v'hick has recently
'been opened in Archer-stv- -,..- or caching of
Spencean Doctrines : we, hovreve,, trust there
was no necessity for the refusal of this mud Tailor
to become a Steward at the tis::t Anniversary, for
we hope that the vigilance of the Government
will be exerted to put down him and wihi
associates before they advance too tar in their
career.

DREADFUL ACCIDENT BY A STAGE-COACH.

One of those melancholy events which have of

late occurred but too trequently, happened ou
Saturday evening to the regular llemel-Hemp.
stead coach, belonging to Mr. Hearn, of t: e
King's Artus, Snowhill, which wa3 overturned iu
passing the corner at Hunton-bridge, Hem,
owing to the wanton behaviour of the coachman, in
endeavouring to make a fine angl-
g‘ound to shivers by the horse, h Ln_se (I ur y
drawing it after them. A woman on rl a onrsnic
was killed on the spot ; another ntn,,,:.ie
ger and the coachman are so mutilated that little

hopes ate entertained of their recovery ; and
eight or nine other passengers have been so se—
vet ely cut and hi nisei!, that a considerable time
must elapse before they can again follow their
usual occupations. The inside passengers, ty-nong
whom was a Gent lemln of great prt
sequence in thecour, v of Hells, r•cie more
nate, but did not any of them etc.r.r :without ins
jiffy, though comparAively of a slight nature.
There were no less than passenger; on
the outside at the time, which no doubt materially
contributed to the fatal accident ; an inquest WH3
to be held yesterday at littn.o-l•bridge on the wo..
man who was killed.

ANOTHER ACCOUNT.—On Saturday afternoon'
tlearti's Ilemel-Hempstead Coach was
turned at Huston-bridge, about three miles be-
low Watford, Owing piincipally to the carkless-
ness of the driver, in dashing, rapidly round the
corner of the bridge, with the overpowering
weight of seventeen outside passengers, when,
shocking to relate, a respectable young ‘romats
and a young man, the servant of a Gentleman ill
the neighbourhood, were so dreadfully injured
that they survived only a few hours, and several
other persons were also severely wounded.

ACCIDENT AT LONDON BRIDGE —On Sunday
night, about eltvett o'clock, as a party of four men,
and the wife of one of the men and a child, were
in a p'easure-boat, with no waterman on hoard,
in passing under Londtm-bridge, at high tide,

the boat overiet in its descent. 'file whole patty
were thrown into the, Wtiter ; the lernale wit*
drowned ; but the men swam on shore ; and one
of them saved the child, by holding it in one
hand, and swimming with his other. They were:
all excellent swimmers, or they could not have
reached the shore. The female was found
about ten minutts, finite dead ; andohe body W
conveyed to the Green Man and Bell, D4rkhouse-
lane, Billingsgate, for a Coroner's Inquest.
Mr. BuLtocK, of the Museum, with par! of his
fatuity, lately sailed in the cutter ElizAbeth on a
voyage of investigation to the unfregnented Isles
in the North of Europe. In Smirk, one of the
Otkney Isles he vsited, the sand has lately been
blown awn- to tl,e depth ot nearly 20 feet, and

as discovered the r,:rnolus uf buildings of vast an-

tiquity, enclosed by stone galls ne,+r half a tnile in
extent ; sonic ot the linti,es are very large, antlroofed
with stones of nrodir,ion: s7ze. There .re st•rcai
circular e:keli etintaining three graves,
none of which are more than four tee: six inches
long. There is not the 3!igl/test tradition that
can throw Any light on these very interesting and
eurioos remains,Lvhich have yet been very slightly

;ovestigated. - -
Upwards of 50 beaut;fol Roman urns have been:
accidentally dise,,velvd ‘eithio the Ikrz few day:,
in a field belongiulf, w the Marquis CoRNWALLIG,
near Eye, its Suffolk. Ftom the great length of
time they have beets ticpot.ited in the earth, the
workmen experience much difficulty in getting
tbew out entire.
