SIR WALFER S(011' IN DUBLIN.

Monday sennight, the Freedom of the Guild of
Merchants was proposed to S:r ‘Valter Scott, by W.
Gleiscock, Esq. seconded by R. Horan, Esq. which was
carried unanimously. The Master of the Guild, Sheriff
Lamprey, having notified this civic compliment to Sir
Walter. he returned the following answer :
" Sta—l am apprised by your letter, just received, that the
Guild of Merchants of the City of Dublin have done me the dis-
tinguished honour of enrolling me in their Incorporation. It would
be difficult for me to express the feelings excited by such an un-
expected and gratifying mark of distinction; and 1 must beg of
your kindness to express, in the warmest terms, my sense of obli-
gation to the highly respected Guild of Dublin. Be pleased to
receive, at the same time, my personal acknowledgment fur the
polite manner in which you have intimated the favour which it has
been the pleasure of the Guild to confer on me, and believe me,
with sincerity, Sir, your honoured and obliged bumble servant.

GUILDHALL

A Wzrz's Anacreon.-..A man was placed at the bar, charged by
a watchman, who stated, that on Saturday n4ht he was called into
the prisoner's lodgings by his daughter, and ending that he had
broken his wife's jaw, he took him to the watch-house. The wife
was immediately taken-to the Hospital, but in spite of the House
Surgeon she had left the Hospital that morning, and had been out-
side the Justice Room door ever since it was opened to prevent her
daughter coming in to state the charge against the prisoner:
The ALDIMICAN desired that the wife should be brought in, and
she was accordlngly lid in by one of the °Seers, with her head
bound up, an infant in her arms, and the paleness of death on her
face. On being placed at the table she cast a look at the prisoner,
rather in sorrow than in anger; and then turning to the Alderman,
endeavoured to look composed, and to make herself audible, while
she said—" It wasn't his fault, my Lord ; I had a giddiness in my
head, and fell down and broke my jaw myself, my Lord."
The Alderman's feeling of commiseration for the poor woman'
would not allow him to put her to the pain of answering any ques-
tions; so turning to the prisoner, and telling him that such a wife
deserven better treatment, he ordered him In be discharged. The
poor wife, who was evidently afraid that all her exertions for hill
safety might not be successful, was rejoiced when she heard hint
discharged, and be withdrew in silence, apparently not quite in-
sensible of the affection of which his conduct had 'hewn him so
little worthy.

TOWN HALL

Seery Gamble, the bruiser. was charged with an aggravated as-
sank upon an old man, aged 70. The defendant met the complain-
ant in Joiner's-street who had two baskets of water-tresses slung
across his shoulders, when the defendant said he bad no right
to be on the foot pavement with them, and pushed him ; and on
the old man remonstrating, knocked him down by a violent blow
on the mouth, that broke three of his teeth. Two housekeepers on
the spot corroborated this evidence, and Alderman J.J. Smut
after telling the defendant that he was a dastardly fellow, ordered
him to and bail.

whole of the remainder of the day. It was an appeal
from a decision of ti e Master of the Rolls, and eat one
of rather a singular nature. The plaintiff is an infant,
and the defendant an attorney, whet became Connected
with the family of the Aliens in Wales. According to
the statement of the plaintiff's Counsel, Mr. Hart, the
plaintiff's uncle, was a man possessed of considerable
landed estates, but of very weak understanding, and
even those intellects which he did possess, were wholly
lost by intoxication. This person executed a will, as it
was alleged, at the defendant's instigation, in which Mr.
Gwynne was left devisee of the property, and residuary
legatee, thus becoming posr.essed of the whole property,
with the exception of a few annuities of 201. a year to
the wife, and 101. a•year to each of the sisters. These
latter annuities, however, were set aside by a subse-
quent codicil. The defendant entered into the posses-
sion of the estates even before the death of the testator,
and handed over the rents to him. The Mater of the
Rolls had directed an action of ejectment to be brought
at law, to try the question, and that decision was now
appealed from. A variety of very long interrogatories
and documents were read, and occupied the greater
part ofthe time. of the Court. The further bearing war
postponed, when the Court rose at four o'clock.

M. Launy then goes on to state that he shelved the
utmost respect to the statue in taking it down, and did
not, as was falsely asserted, attach a rope round its
neck. During Napoleon's sojourn at Elba, numbers of
persons, both native and foreign, came to M. Launy's
foundry to see the statue. 0 the return of the Em-
peror the statue was given up to the Government, but
on the second return of the Bourbons it was broken to
pieces, and the bronze employed in making the statue
of Henry IV. which has been erected on the plat-
form of the Pont Neuf.

Every article of European produce is excessively dear
in Colombia: a common black hat costs a Bs. a coat
60 dollars, and a pair of boots a doubloon ; everything
else full SOO per cent. dearer than in England. There
is a mess formed at Bogota, of Englishmen, at which
the party dine together, but although a plain dinner only
is provided, and no wine allowed, it stands each indivi-
dual in 600 dollars annually. There are no taverns or
inns, consequently every person is compelled to have a
private 0 welUng, and buy his own furniture, the charges
for which are enormous ; a common stretcher, or stump
bedstead, a ith an old chair and small table, costs 32
dollars ; the same articles in England would not cost 10s.
Saturday evening, about nine o'clock, a notorious
pickpocket, named Sydney Smith, went into a public-
house in Brook-street, Holborn, kept by a Mr. Waters.,
He sat down in the tap-room, and drank some porter,
and then picked a person's pocket. Mr. Waters took
the handkerchief horn him, and desired him to quit
the house, and never shew his face there again. The
villain immediately drew a clasp-knife from his
pocket, and swore, that unless Mr. Waters gave him
up the handkerchief, he would rip his heart out.—
Waters positively refused to give it to him, when the,

Ring en, ling on, Nis all the same to thee,
For what thou ringlet, sweet, but senseless peal:
Alike the protestant of woe or glee,
Thou helot Sot, but tnakest others feel!
Now lightly Boating on the gentle gale,
Thy blending, notes of harmony resound,
The soft, consenting, blushing bride to hall,
Who, trembling, passes o'er the sacred ground !
But now how changed, hew solemn is thy tone,
How ceased thy harmony! one dreary bell
Stiles upon the attentive ear alone,
Aod tells of death—it rings a funeral knell !
No more in unison harmonious flow
Thy strains melodious from the trembling spires;
Like the proud heart, the solemn note of woe,
Lonely in grief no fellowship requires !
Again thy joyous bells triumphant ring,
Emblazon 'd banners high and proudly wave,
Whilst to the breeze their silv'ry voices sing,
The song of vicery, triumphs of the brave !
Some may rejoice, but heartless is their joy,
For vicery's joys are bitterly alloy'd ;
The daring band that went forth to destroy
Are in death, are conquer'd and destroy'd !
litirg on, ring on, then ! 'cis the same to thee,
For what thou ringest, sweet, but senseless peal !
Alike the instrument of woe or glee,
Thon feelett not, but makeu others feel! .

APOLAOA'S STA FUR.

In a work upon the Column of the Place Vendome,
written by M. Tardieu, the author accuses M. L4uny,
the founder of the column and statue of Napoleon
which surmounted it, of having offered his services to
take down the latter, and of having afterwards broken
it to pieces, and re-melted it. M. Lamy has just pub-
lished a refutation of this calumny, which he says made
him an object of universal horror. This refutation is
Accompanied by justificatory documents, the authen-
ticity of which is incontestible. The following is M.
Launy's account of the transaction:
On the 3d of April, 1814, M. Montbadon called on me, an/l-
a:died me if I was not the founder of the column and statue of the
l'iace Vendome? On my replying in the affirmative, he told me
that I was required to take down the statue, being the only person
who kriew how it was fixed upon the column. This I refused to
do, and he went away, stating that he would return with an order
to compel me. The next morning he came back, and presented me
with an air of triumph a written paper, which, on perusing, I
found to concern him alone, and as my name was cot mentioned in
it, I again refused. Ile then took me ha his carriage to the hotel
of a General Officer, in the Rue Thibaut, No. 18. This person,
whom we found in bed, addressed me in a harsh and haughty man-
ner, and on my once more refusing to do what was required of tine,
he told me, that if I did not obey I should be shot, and added,
4 I give you three days to think of it: Finding myself thus
coerced, I demanded that the statue should be left in my pos.
session, as a security for 80,000 francs still due to me. This was ac-
ceded to, and at the General's request I repaired to the head-quar-
ters of the Emperor of Russia, where the following order was put
into my hand:
" S la the execution of the authorisation given by us to M. de
Muntbados to bare the statue of Bonaparte taken down-at his COW,
and upon the declaration of the said M. de Montbadon that N.
Lanny, the founder of the column, is the only person capable of
doing it successfully, we order the said Luny, under pain of
military execution, to proceed without delay to the said operation.
(Signed) " Dr ROCNICSOUART,
Colonel Aid-de-Camp to the Emperor of Russia,
Commandant of the place.

MR. C1141.0N.
•
A 1.1,1110111 has been circulated spina this artist to di.
'effect that be is not the esisbcated Mr. Chalon.' As
we are interested iq the adesaerostat of the arts, and
have been always ahsious to do justice to every artist,
we are much concerned it this report, because we can
assure the public the rumour is perfectly unfounded,
and that Mr. Chalon is tile celebrated anithal painter of
that name. We suppose this rumour has originated
from there being two artists of that name, who, how-
ever, do not, and never have, professed the peculiar
line of the Mr. C. who is the ►abject of this paragraphs
Alfred Chalon, the Royal Academician, is a portrait
painter, and his brother John Junes Chalon is a land-
scape painter and a drawing master. These Gentlemen
are no relations to Mr. Remy Barnard Chalon, the
animal painter, nor has he ever professed himself to be
related to them. We are much grieved that this re-
port has gone abroad, because Mr. C. is decidedly one
of the ablest animal painters ►hat ever lived, and has
received such testimonials from Royal,y,and from those
branches of the Royal Family by whom he has been
employed, as well as from the Earl of Darlington, and
from many distinguished characters In this neighbour-
hood, and in other parts of the empire, as completely
set at rest all possibility of there ever having been any
wish on his part to assume a reputation not his own.,
Mr. C.'s voucher; and warrants are in his possession,
and must be perfectly satisfactory to any Gentleman
who might desire to inspect them. Indeed, one would
suppose that the name of Mr. H. B. Chalon, in the
Catalogue of the Royal Academy, as animal painter to
his Majesty, and to his Royal Highness the Duke of
York, might have convinced the most sceptical of the
folly of any doubts they might have enterta-ned upon
this matter. We repeat it, that this Gentleman is the
celebrated animal painter, and we trust we shall hear
no more of this idle and injurious rumour.—Tyne Mer.

SUMMER ASSIZES.

IIAiDSTONS; JULY 26.•
COLMAN. V. DELASMIX•

This was an action of assault an.l battery, to which

the defendant pleaded the general i,sue--N•;t Guilty.
The plaintiff bas been in the army, and resided" at
Canterbury ; the defendant was an attorney of the same
city. It was to be collected from the evidence, although
it- was not distinctly proved, that there. had been some
old standing quarrel between the parties. At the. last
Canterbury Races, on Barham Downs, defendant role
up to plaintiff, who was driving his gig on the Race
Course, and asked some explan iron of something which
was supposed to have been said by him of the defendant.
The answer, which did not appe.r in evidence,-uot
being satisfactory to the defendant, he struck the plainz
tiff three violent blows with his whip, and rode away.
The assault, which took place in the view of a great
many persons, was proved by two witnesses.
The Jury found for the Plaintiff—Damages 701.
YORK, JULY 26.

Mr. ARCHBOLD opened the p'eadings. He stated
that this was an action brought to recover a compensa-
tion in damages for certain slanderous words spoken by
the defendant to thee injury of the plaintiff's character.
Mr. Burster? addressd the Jury at considerable length, and
called witnesses to prove that It was a mere squabble, and that
much violent and irritating language had been used en both sides,
and that whatever occurred in the heat of passion ought never to
have been brought into a Court of Justice.
Mr. Baron Huu.oce summed up the cue and a verdict was
given for the plaintiff, damages—One Fartiiing—with• leave to
move for a nunsuit.

CORONER'S INQUEST.

Monday last, as Inquest was taken at Culbasn, Oxen, by Mr.
Cam, Corms for that county, es view of the body of bluia
Minna
Charlotte Wank. widww, deposed, that on Sunday about, the
tidal. of the day, she went with her sisters, Maria Sunday,.
and
Eliza Whitmill, walking s she had a child in her arms about
15 months old ; they went to a place called the Old Lock; Maria
said she would sit down and wash her feet—witness persuaded her
not to do so; she, however, took off her shoes and stalking% and
hid these on the grass, and then walked into the water. After she
had been there about Ave minutes, witness @minim walk into
the water; Eliza was naked; witness had never been to the place
before, and did not knew how deep it was • she thought where
they were walking towards was deep water, :sad called to them to
come back, but they would not. Shortly after, witness saw Eliza
struggling in the water, and Maria was not to be seen ; they neither
called out. Witness laid the infant on the grass, and ran into the
water, and caught bold of Eliza and got her out of the water.
Witness then looked for Maria, and saw hes head come m the top
of the water once or twice; she then disappeared, and witness did
net see her any more. Witness ran towards beg master's (Mr.
Coaling), and called for assistance. Several young men came up.
but said they could not swim. It was upwards of an .hour berme
Maria Whitman was got at of the water. She would have been
17 years of age the 19th of this month. Diu was about is years. John Townsend deposed that, on Sunday, between twelve and
one in the day, himself and Henry Harding were employed drag.
ging for the body of Maria Whitmill, in the his, in a place c.illed
the Old Lock. Mr. Harding drew the body out. She was vote
load. , Verdict, " Accidentally Drowned."

It is not true, that Lady Bfltos secludes herself from
all society, and IS retires to rename villages on her landing." Her
ladyship may be said certainly to live in her" frail bark," but it
is for the restoration of bar health, which is serial* affected.

EXMOUT.II REGATTA.

Thursday was ushered in at break of day by the
firing of guns, displaying of flags, and playing of
.the
Exmouth band. At twelve, the public breakfast room
was crowded with beauty and fashion, nearly two hun-
dred persons being present. The polite attention of .Sir
D. Forest, the Steward of the Regatta, and the Lady
Patronesses, threw a charm on all around, and eve-y
person appeared pleased. After the breakfast, the
Regatta commenced—three yachts started for the first
cup, which was won by Mr. Turner's Invincible, beating
the Fawn by only a minute and a half, after going round
a course of thirteen miles. Soon after the boats started,
it was clear the contest would be between the Fawn
and Invincible, taking the lead of the Friends. Thi'
race afforded much amusement, and was well contested
by the two leading boats, each of which was managed
in a skilful and seaman-like manner, and both have
won their silver cops. When the wind freshened on
going large, the Fawn took the lead ; on the wind dying
away, the Invincible got a-head, and kept it the remain-
der of the race, owing to the lightness of the wind.
The Races contributed not a little to the delight of the spectators,
who were most numerous, some thousands of persons being pre-
sent, among whom were a great number of beautiful and will-
dresied females, who, being scattered over the sloping grounds and
brow of the hi, presented to the eye of those in boats at sea one
of the most pleasing prospects that can be imagined. The races
were contested with much spirit; five horses started for the silver
quart. In the first beat, two of them bolted,and their riders were
thrown. Mr. Cbaptnan's grey mare won the second heat, and Mr.
• bay the third. It is said that the match is postponed to
Thursday neat. Mr. Land's bay mare won the Ladies Cup, and
his pony the saddle and bridle.
In the 'venlig, the Ball was numerously and fashionably at-
tendee; the dancing was kept up with much spirit.
