The young Earl of HoourouN having completed his

ship's estates in the county of Linlithgow, joined by the tenants of
the estate of Rosyth, in the county of Fife, met at Newhall's inn to
celebrate the event, and *hew their attachment to the noble family of
Iforrerieu, upon whose property most of them have passed their lives.
Fifty sat down to dinner, Mr. Dudgeon llnnibk, in the chair, Mr.
Walker, Orchard-head, and Mr. rlsilar, IN idslry Nlains, croupiers.
Many toasts were given, and the evening was spent with the
inmost harmony.
By letters from Genoa, of the 13th instant, we learn
that a dreadful gale teas experienced on the coast of
Sardinia on the 31st ultimo, which continued a week.
No accounts had been received of the damage done to
the shipping, but it was expected future advices would
bring a most calamitous detail. It was 'likewise re-
ported, that• the hurricane had caused considerable
injury on land as well as at sea.
Papers from Montreal• to the 15th ult. state, that 14
persons belonging to the Hudson's Bay Company haJ
been murdered by the Snake and Beaver Indians, and
that one of the forts had been entirely destroy ed.
By accounts from the Havanna to the middle of Oc-
tober, we learn that the privateers fitted out in the United
States under the Colombian flag, continued to infest that
coast, and were a great annoyance to trade. In order
to put a stop to piracy, the Gavel nor ;rad determined
to cut off all intercourse with Key West, and no vessels
were suffered to clear out for that point.
By private letters from Smyrna, we are informed that
accounts had reached that city of serious disturbances
having broken out in Syria. The Miselenos of the
Pacha of Aleppo had been expelled from Lattakia and
Tripoli, and the Emir of Druses, as well as Mosvmsa
BERBER, were advancing on St. Jean d'Acre.
The Prussian Government has addressed, to the dif-
ferent Universities, some authentic information respect-
ing the spit it of the Secret Society known by the name
of Burschenschel. 6S This document," says the Etoik,
tt which is entitled to the greatest attention, may be re-
garded as a succinct recapitulation of the inquiries
which have been carrying on since 1819, and which are
still in progress. It confirms the general opinion, that
the Secret Associations of the Students do not in them-
selves contain anything that is dangerous, but that they
are extremely reprehensible in two points of view: Ist,
because Revolutionists may avail themselves, as they
have done, of these Associations to propagate their in-
surrectionary doctrines, and so promote their practical
accomplishment ; and 2J, because Secret Associations
having been prohibited, individuals who continue to be-
long to them are guilty of a violation of the laws."
A Calcutta Paper of the 12th of June thus explains
the origin of the charge insinuated against the late
Governor-General of India :--1. We are given to under-
stand that the following is the explanation of the origin
of the rumour respecting the deficiency of 300,0001.
and which was made the subject of insinuation against
Local Hastings. A clerk at the India House (Audit-
office) having made an error in summation of 300,0001.
in last year's accounts, mentioned to some other clerk
that there was that deficiency in the Treasury ; he again
repeated the story, making the deficiency in the Indian
Treasury ; and when it was again mentioned, it obtained
the addition of Bengal Treasury,' and that the defi-
ciency must have been occasioned by Lord Hastings ;
last came the charge in the prints, that Lord Hastings
had abstracted to the above amount from his own trea-
sury. While the rumour was thus spreading, the error
was observed and corrected, and consequently the
matter was a surprise to' the Direction, and appeared
unworthy of an answer. The prints had to retrace
their authority, and the foregoing was the result."

CRIMINAL INFORMATION.
Mr. ADAMS moved for a rule to shell• cause why a criminil in.
formation should not be issued against Captain and Lieutenant M.
cholas, brothers, Officers in the Navy, and a Mr. Day, for a breach
of the peace, in using threatening and provoking language to Alt.
Soday, an Alderman of the Borough of East Looe. It appearel that
two days after deponent's arrival from France, Lieut. Nicholas and
Mr. Day went to his house, each armed with a horsewhip; Ile.
Day told him that Captain Nicholas wished to see him, for the
potpie of giving bins a horsewhipping; he requested them to (13
about their business, when Mr. W. Nicholas said, ,4 I have ser7..d
my King and country with honour, but you and your brother, Capt.
Soday are cowards," &c. The Learned Counsel said, the affidavit
of Mr. Soday denied giving either of the parties the slightest pro.
vocation for the attack. Deponent had formerly served with Sir
Home Popham, a 4 a Purser in the Navy.
LORD CHIRP' Jusvics.—Take a rule to thew cause.

A medical gentleman was attending a female in
labour at StinCrOSc, on T►►esday morning, when ti.e
water gained so fast on the pound floor that it was
thought advisable to quit the house ; the gentlerna.►,
omatt, and attendants were accordingly taken in a

boat from the window, and had not Inni quitted the

house when it fell.

It is stated in an United States Paper, that there ate
upwards of biz thousand applicants for the station
of midshipmen.
Among t' e long list of shipwrecks and losses occa.
sioned by the late heavy gales, is that of the Duhl;n
ketch, formerly a packet at Holyhead, Jt.hn Jones ma:-
-ter, which sailed from Milford for Amlwch about a
mot th age. The ship's company consisted of cai;tail,
m. te, and four st amen ; besides whom, there were .on
oard two passenger s, young lads of respectable parents,
who had been to South Wales on an e'en' sion of pica-
....

sure, and were returning home in this sesse'. SI-e was
seen on her passage between Milford and Holy
and has never been heard of since.

Circumstances having transpired which excited sus-
picion as to the occasmn of the late dreadful liie at
Biggleswade, an investigation took place on Monday
last, before W. IWhitbread, Esq. and the Rev. J.
when it being clearly ascertained that it was caused by
the carelessness and gross negligence of William Bass,
the bar e-keeper, he was convicted by the said Justices
in the penalty of 1001. and in defata of payment was
committed to the House of Correction, at Begotd, for
IR months, pursuant to the Statute 14th Geo. HI. cap.
78. It is highly important to the public that the pm-
visions of tht., Statute should be known and acted upon.

iday night last, a dreadful explosion took place in
the Margaret Pit, near Newcastle, which, with others, is
comprehended under the title of Newbottle Colliery.
Eleven men were killed.

At the last Essex Sessions, twelve persons (amongst
whom were Lieutenant WEIITH, R.N. THOMAS ASHEN,
a wealthy farmer, and two respectable tradesmen) wen.
convicted of a riot at Brentwood, and assaulting two
common informers, by dragging them through a ditch,
and immersing them in soil and filth, for which they
were sentenced to one month's imprisonment in Chelms-
ford Jail. Their imprisonment having terminated on
Thursday morning last, a stage-coach, with four
horses, decorated with blue ribbons, was sent from
Brentwood to convey them to their respective homes;
a band of music met them at Shenfield, when the
horses were taken from the coach, which was drawn
into Brentwood by men provided with topes, amidst
the hearty congratulations of their families and friends
The annual Cattle Fair, at Louth, in Lincolnshire, held on
Tat day laq, was well attended, and good prices given. A gang of
horse stealers has got into that part of the country, and are cont•
mittiug great depredations. On the night of the fair, Mr. Parker,
of Loath, bad two mares stolen out of his paddock ; and the same
evening, Mr. Lucas, of the same place, also lost a mare.
GLASGOW CAT= Masse, Nov. 22.—There were 413 Black
Cattle in this day's market ; of these a very small proportion were
prime, which sold readily at about 9s. a stone. There were 1380
Sheep in market, a considerable part of which remained uesold ;
Black-faced Wedders sold at from 14s. 6d. to 20s. Ewes at from
Bs. to 16s. a head. No White-faced Sheep at market.
Mural= Cams Mammy, Nov. li.—Numbers anti kinds.—
Three-years-olds, 30; two-years olds, 148 ; highlanders, 300 ; que) • .
201 ; stirks, 113 ; cows, 10 ; total, 802. Prices were a little or,
the ecline, but not to such an extent as to justify any dismal fere-
bodings respecting the approaching Martinmas Wednesday. There
were very few heavy Galloway beasts on the Sands, and those that
were shewed but indifferently, compared with what we have beer.
accustomed to for a long time past. Their highest prices did not
exceed 10 guineas and £ll. Sonic lots of two-year-olds came very
near them both iu size and condition, and sold at very little beneath
them in price—from £6 15s, to £9 15s. The whole of the high-
landers shewn were remarkably small, and dealing among thou
seemed to be rather backward; prices from £3 10s. to £5 15S.
There were some very good mixed lots of queys and heifers, but
they were not in general so strong as those of last week. Their
prices varied from £4 to £7 10s. and for one particularly good lot
£7 18s. was given. The best lot of stirks sold at £6 7s. and their
lowest price was about ,C 3. Cows appeared to be a little more in
demand, but there were only two or three in the market of the
mprting kind, and the highest price we know given for any of them
was £5 10s. and £6.
Pmts.—Eight cans; prices from Ts. 6d. to 12.5. Average same
as last week.
Maav-i.a.-Bonaz.—A woman named Wheeler, was charged by
Mary Collins, of Bell-street, Liston Grove, with robbing her of a
pocket, containing two coral necklaces, one with pearl clasps ; se-
veral brooches, five gold seals, several gold rings, shirt pins, a quan-
tity of loose beads bits of gold, silver, Sic. The Magistrate ex-
pressed some surprise at her possessing so many valuable article:.--
Complainant said she was a dust sifter, and was in the daily habit
of finding valuable articles therein. She was in the employment
of Mr. Kelly, a dust contractor, who allowed her eightpence a
load for sifting, besides spoons, and other articles she might find.—
The Magistrate asked her how many spoons she found in a year?
She said it was impossible to say ; she had followed that occurtion
eight years, and had saved enough to begin house-buildw„; ; and
had then a house erecting which she expected would cost her Z.o;tl.
She had deposited In Mr. Kelly's hands 1006 Si part payment, and,
in confirmation of what she said, produced a box, containing thirty-
nine sovereigns, two 5!. notes, several guineas and half sovereigns,
and several duplicates of articles found, such as rings, table and
tea-spoons, forks, and gold brooches.—The Magistrate expressed
his surprise, but there being no evidence to corroborate the suspi-
cion against the prisoner, she was discharged.
The bank of Messrs. Oldaker, Tomes, and Chattawayi
at Stratford-upon-Avon, was broken open on the night
of Monday, and robbed of a large number of their local
notes, of 11. 51. and 101. besides a considerable amount
in sovereigns, Bank of England notes, and notes of
other banks.
Ilzarn.—Tue-da, ,at Hythe, the Bight Hon. Lady Greenock, et
Li. at d he!r.
