The Very Rev. the Dean of Windsor appeared t 1181111-1
plaint of misbehaviour he bad kid against the portal 011ie Titer
Cups Inn, Aldgate.
The Dean, it seemsb has two residences, one at Lincoln and the ,
other at Windsor,. and be occasionally removes valuable property
from one to the other. Id the case which wai the subject of complaint
a large chest had been sent from Lincoln to Windsor, directed to be
carried from London to the latter place, " by Atherton's Windsor
Waggon ;" upon its arrival at the Three Cups Inn, however, the
porter took it, notwithstanding the very intelligible direction upon
it, to " North's Windsor Waggon." As this had happened re;
peatedly before, the Dean made some inquiry upon the subject,
when North bluntly claimed the right of bribing whatever porters
he chose to bring goods to his waggon. This induced the Ikon to
try whether Mr. North's system of bribery could not be counter-
acted by.the power of the law, and whether carriers cannot be coin-
pelled to abide by any reasonable directions.
The book-keeper of the Inn now appeared to state, that they had
four porters, and he could not tell, from the general terms in /which
the summons wu drawn up, which of them was the offender. From
what he had now heard, he could ascertain who he was, and would
produce him to-morrow. He felt that they were bound" to obey
the directions of their custamer4, and would take care that cause
for such a complaint should no; again occur.
After some conversation, the Dean was satisfied with this assur-
ance, and the matter dropped.

ROW-STREET.
Yesterday, the driver of a hackney-coach was brought before Sir
R. Hilt:4M charged by Mr. Pickford, a coal-merchant, with wan-
tonly driving against him, and throwing him from his horse.
It appeared from the evidence of Mr. Pickford and two other
witnesses, that he was riding nearly abreast of a coal waggon, in
Great Queen-street, when the defendant, who was driving at a
sharp pace in an opposite direction, drew suddenly in upon him,
and Jammed him against the waggon, and his horse falling, he was
thrown over his head. in front of a brewer's dray, which, but for
the instantaneous stopping of the horses by the drayman, must have
passed over him, and most likely have killed him on the spot. The
defendant could, with perfect ease, have avoided driving against
Mr. Pickford, be baviug three or four yards of ground to spare ;
and it was the opinion of the witnesses that lie did it wantonly.—
Ile refused to stop when called to, although he saw what had
happetersl.--Tise coachman, in his defence, denied that be drove
agaii,at the complainant wantonly, and said 4, it was as much the
Gentlentates fault as *bat it was his."
Sir R. BUMS ordered him to find bail for his appearance at the
Sessions, to answer the charge of assault.

HATTON-GARDEN-
R. Danger and A. Richardson, wet* charged with a violent
assault. They were fishing in the Valli at Hampstead, and wish-
ing to engross the spurt to themselves, endeavoured to drive all the
juniors front the spot ; in doing which they threw a stone at a boy
nine years old, which struck him so violently on the forehead as
to deprive hint of sense. lie was taken to a Surgeon, who, aftet
using all necessary applications, had him conveyed to the work-
house, where he lies in a dangerous state. They were ordered to
find hail; but nu person appearing in their behalf, the heroes were
locked up.

MA R Y-L A- BONNE.
A FUGITIVS DAIKIHTIII.—An elderly and respectable-looking
man, named Bateman, complained to the Magistrate, that his
daughter, a short time since, eloped from Leeds with a recruit be-
longing to the Horse Guards, and that the girl, previously to her
flight, broke open her mother's drawers, took with her £9, and all
her mother's clothes. He had learnt the soldier was at present in
the Barracks, in the Regent's l'ark, where be had applied to him,
but to no purpose, as he declared be knew nothing of her.—Alorris,
one of the officers, was dispatched to the Barracks, and he shortly
returned with the man, who gave his name Simpson. When ques-
tioned by the Magistrate, he positively declared that he knew no-
thing about the girl; but he admitted that she bad redeemed bis•
watch, and purchased hint some shirts.—The Magistrate regretted
that be could not carry the case further, and observed that the sol-
dier's conduct would no doubt be narrowly Watched.
UNION-lIALL.
William Seagull, a shipwright, in the service of Mr. Gordon, the
ship-builder, at Deptford, was charged with absenting himself
from his employment. The defendant bad been engaged at the
' rate of ss. per day, for six months, but previously to the expira-
tion of that time, he quitted the yard, leaving his work in an un-
finished state. Mr. Gordon went on to give the defendant a good
chatacter until, he said, be became acquainted with a society
called the Union," the object of the Members of which was to
entice men from their work, until they received au advance of
wages. The defendant at first said he did not belong to the Union,
not had they influenced him to leave his work. But when cloeely
pressed, he admitted he had, with considerable reluctance, become
a member, but promised amendment if he was taken to Mr. Gor-
don's yard. Mr. G. consented, and the defendant was discharged.

The Chichester packet was to sail from Kingstln for
Great Britain on the 19th ult. Several' meetings haJ
taken place of the Commission appointed to investigate
the deficiencies of Mt. MUIRRRAD, the late Receiver-
General for the Island of limaici; but without any

In a- letter from Ghent, dated the 15th of May, in
the Constilulionnel of Friday, it is said, " the disciples
of LOYOLA, and their partisans, avail themselves of
'every circumstance to sow trouble and disunion in our
Provinces; dominated by a spirit of usurpation, they
have long been trying their means by the introduction
of their Memorial Catholique,.the doctrines of infalli-
bility of M. DE Mama, those of passive obedience of
M. DE LA MENNAIS, and by private correspondence;
but neither their superstitious barriers, nor their ultra-
montane doctrines, nor the multiplied forms under
which they are produced, have hitherto been successfuL"

for the honour of representing Lewes in the nest Par-
liament, has already bean marked out, and the works
are to be commenced without delay.
A young woman, servant to Mr. J. WARD, New-
road, Lincoln, whilst picking her ear with a pin, the
head came off and lodged within it ; and notwithstand-
ing the best advice and means that could be obtained
to dislodge it, the poor girl now lies in a most dan-
gerous state and in the greatest agony, and it is feared
she will nut recover.

Some few years since, unary articles of dress in the
wardrobes of the two principal theatres, were, from their
former appropriation, great curiosities. A black wig
worn by the scenic murderer in Hamlet was originally
that of King Charles the Second, who gave it to his
jester Killigrew, for the use of the -Theatre. The
doublet worn by Quick, as Spada in the Castle of An-
dalusia, was part of a favourite dress of James the Se-
cond ; a suit of scarlet and gold used by the same
comedian as King Arthur in Toni 1 !work was the
splendid dress in which Lord Northampton, as British
Ambassador, made his public entry into Venice; and .a
formal cut suit of brown, used by Sven as Foresight, in
Love for Love, was many years previously worn by
Mrs. Woffington as Sir Harry Wildair, in the Constant
