FIELD SPORTS FOR DECEMBER.

Pheasants have been found tolerably numerous, though (as re-
marked in our last) not so well grown as usual.
Woodcocks appeared early, and have, in some places, been met
with in considerable numbers.

Snipes have been found in the marshes in their usual abundance,
but at the commencement of the season, more wild than common.
It often happens, that a well'frequentedmar3h which one day con-
tained many thousands of these birds, will not afford a single shot
the following; arising, no doubt, from scarcity of food.
Coursing is now general. From the wetnuss of the season, it
might hence have been supposed that it would be almost impossi-
ble for hares to escape their lengthy pursuers ; but they have run
much better than expected, under the greatest disadvantage be-
yond all question, since that peculiar conformation of this animal's
feet (and its having no ball to them in particular) which gives it a
decided superiority in frosty weather, and on hard roads, is demi..
mental to its speed when the ground is so soft as not to be able to
support its weight without sinking—in a suit fallow, for instance,
it has little or no chance with a greyhound, whose superior strength
enables him to get over it much faster than the bare, to say
nothing of the advantage which the dog derives from the superior
breadth and structure of his feet.

The sante remarks will, in some degree, apply to hare-hunting,
which, as well as fox-hunting, is geniis' at this period ; hut, from
the continued wetness of the weather, and the consequent state of
the ground, hunting has been, particularly in some parts, very dis-
tressing to the horses.
A NGLlNt2.—Jack, Pike, Chub, and Reach, continue to take a bait
freely daring this month, especially on those days when the wind
is southerly, and the sun makes his appearance for a few hours;
but as such weather does not frequently occur in December, the
angl,-r should make the most of such a favourable opportunity, and
deviate it to trolling or &Wont fishing. lie should commence fishing
'about ten o'clock hi the morning. and not leave the river side till
four in the afternoon. If his health will allow him to do this, he
has a right to expect excellent sport, for the fish above enumerated
are now strong and hungry; all the winged insects als3 bring in a
torpid state, and the spawn of fish and the different species of the
veritlicular tribe scarcely to be met with ; the angler will not spend
his time in vain. Ile should, however, be careful to use proper
baits and tackle, because the heaviest or the old fish will now ha-
zard their lives for a belly-full, which nothing could entice them to
do a few months back. Barbel, carpo perch, gudgeon, and tuts, are
now retired to their Usual winter quarters.—From Ike Annuls if'

:gation of the skin surround the part which was bitten:
violent spasms resembling tetanus Supervene, followed
by mortification. A friend of mine at Savannah died
in consequence of being- bitten by a snake in the hand.
When they took hold of has arm to place him in-the
coffin, the arm came off at the shoulder-joint.
Seeing the failure, of the negro's supposed remedies'
-in all the '.experirilents which we tried, I was strongly
impressed with the idea • that wrong names had been
given to the plants in queaion. I lost no opportunity
afterwards in endeavouring to discover what those
plants really were. On going to lecture botady at
Augusta, I mentioned the failure which Ifad occurred
at Charleston. Dr. Powell,. of Augusta, WAS present
with the Legislature when the reward was granted to
the negro ; and he WAS astonished at the observations,
made by me upon die subject.
He assured the that he had, since the discovery was'
made known, succeeded in curing upwards of 150 per-
sons who-had been bitten; and invited me, and several
of my class, to breakfast with him, when he would pre-
sent a number of his cored cases for our inspection.
'truly surprised was Ito find that, in some instances, a
cure had been effected, even after mortification of the
bitten part, to a considerable extent, had actually taken
place, and had left deep scars. I asked perinission to see
the plant. He led me to a swamp ; and, instead of a
simple plantain, he pointed out to me the alisma plan-
tago, one of the most active plants in nature; and, from
its known antispasmodic powers, I have no doubt of its
lbeing equally a specific for Hydrophobia and Tetanus,
as it has proved to be for the poison of the Rattle-snake.
In order to induce the faculty to give its virtues a
fair trial, as an antispasmodic, I may observe that I
have frequently seen cattle, which have eaten the alivna,
completely paralysed, so that they could not stand. As
Ideath ensues from the excessive stimulant action of the
poison of the rattle-snake, and of the saliva of a rabid
animal upon the muscular system, I consider that a
cure is effected by the peculiar sedative power of the
alisma, or antispasmodic, relaxing the spasm, and I be-
lieve it will be found to be an effectual specific for the
cure of these two dreadful maladies.

The best mode of administering the alistras pLatago,
in cases of Hydrophobia and Tetanus, when the diffi-
culty of swallowing comes on, is to scrape about an
ounce of the solid root, and let it b 4 eaten between two
slices of bread. The dose to be repeated in about an
hour, if the spasms are not telieved.

THE DISINTERMENT OF .1161. ES

PARIS, SEPTEMBER 19.
Yesterday the Cafés of Paris emptied themselves into
St. Geimain's, which was thronged at an early hour,
for the purpose of witnessing the august ceremony of
removing the royal remains of James 11. King of: Eng-
land, which were unexpectedly discovered, a short tin*
since, by the workmen employed in digging the founda-
tion of the new church, which is building upon the
wits of the old edifice, which was found to be in so
;ruinous a state as to be utterly incapable of repair. The
road was thronged with carriages of all descriptions,
and pedestrians of all classes. The ceremony, which
was conducted with great solemnity, began with a psi._
_cession of Priests in their sacerdotal vestments, who, on
entering the chapel built for the temporary purposes or
religious worship, on a spot nearly adjoining the church,
_performed the service of Mass in a most impressive
manner. The speetatori, who were very numerous,
seemed greatly affected by the whole scene, which was,
strikingly grand, and replete with moralassociations.
The entrance to the chapel was hung with a canopy of
black cloth, as was the interior. The coffin, containing
the royal remains, was placed upon a stage in the shape
of a magnificent mausoleum, hung round with tesse-
lated drapery of the deepest mourning. The whole was
surmounted with the royal diadem of gold, placed oa
a rich cushion of crimson velvet ; over the whole of
which was thrown a veil of black crape, which softened,
without concealing, their splendour. Towards the close
of the service, the remains of the Royal Sovereign were
removed, in great state, to the altar, beneath which the
attendants proceeded to deposit it, with ail those solem-
nities, io powerful in their effect, which distinguish the
Catholic Church service. The whole ceremony closed
about two o'clock. On a plain black tablet, iu the front
of the altar, is the following inscription :

C/ATALV CURE FOR HYDROPHOBIA.
TO Tirr. EDITOR'OF THE STAR.
Sin—Permit me, through the Medium of your Va-
luable Paper, to offer to the Public a few remarkiupon
the cure of that dreadful disorder—Humor:wawa.—
The melancholy instances of horrid torment and inevi-
table death ensuing from the bite of "Wald animals,
which ate claPy seem recorded in the Newspapers, de-
maad the attention of those whose duty it is to watch
over the health of the community, and to publish any
thing which may prove successful, in cases which, ut,-
. der the most scientilc-tieatnient, invariably terminate
. fatally, when once the characteristiC symptoms of the
dis-ase are fully dtvei.opett.-
T:te poison•infircred by the bite of arabid animal is
shia,Abreci/y of a specA; mime, and therefore its dele-
reri.,irs effects can only be counteracted by a s/ecjc re-
medy. Tilt doctrine of srecretca has been- so_ univer-
sally explo.led by the Faculty, that popular remedies
• for particular diseases have been almost entirely es-
punge,.: from the Materia Medica: hence any medicine
said to be ustqiil for the cure of any complaint, unless
its mode of action can be explained upon rational and
tcientific principlei, is denounced as a -nostrum, and
held up to contempt and ridicule as the vilest quackery.
About eitiht years ago a remedy was discovered by a
Russian for the cure •of hydrophobia. He communi-
cated the discovery belted made-to the Cuilege of Phy-
sicians of Moscow. Under their sanction, it was pub-
lished as a specific for that horrid malady. This ac-
count was transmitted to the United States.by the Arne-.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

Yesterday Elizabeth Brewster, who was remanded on a charge of
having deserted her child, who died shortly afterwards in the work-
house of St. James's parish, was again brought up fi.r final exami-
nation. The parish officers attended to support the prostcutiuli,
and the prisoner, who now seemed to be brought to a sense of the
enormity of her offence, shed tears, and confessed having deserted
her child. The case being proved„ she was fully committed.
Sur.i.Tox THE PUGILIST AND HIS WlVE.—These persons were yes-
terday brought before Mr. CONANT, charged with grossly assaulting
a man of the name of Yenton, a potatoe-salesman, of Broad-street,
St. Giles's.

Front Fenton's statement it appeared, that a few nights back he
went into Shelton's house, called the Hole-in-the-Corner, Gate-
street, Lincoln's Inn-fields, and asked for a pint of beer. Shelton
came in, and rudely said to him, " You have no business in my
parlour with that apron on," and desired him to go into the tap-
room, which he refused to do, on which Shelton collared him and
forced him out ; his wife also struck hint with a leather strap which
she had in her hand. She appeared, he said, to be as go d a
pugilist as her husband, and between them both he had a narrow
escape from being strangled.
Shelton, in his defence, said it was not the custom of his house
to admit persons with aprons on them, such as Fenton wore, to go
into his parlour ; but, beside this, he said, a Gentleman who was in
the habit of frequenting his house came in while Fenton was there,
and in conversation with him (Shelton) asked hint it he knew any
further particulars of the late tight between Langan and Spring?
Ile replied he did not ;on which Fenton said, " D—n you, you do,
if you wish to mention them." This, he said, wa What induced
him to put him out of the room.
His wife denied having struck Fenton; but a witness which the
latter produced proved that she had.
They were ordered to find bail for the assault.
THAMES POLICE.

&mut/ Hunt, a carpenter, of Woolwich., WAS brought to this
Office, before W. lim.r.AusiNE, Esq. to account for the pos.,esAon
of a quantity. of ship timber.
John Gillman, one of tic sursteyers of this establishment,stated,

by virtue of a !Tarrant he searched the defendant's premises, s••d
found concealed under some other wood the ship timber now pro.
duced. The witness was informed by the di fendant he had piked
it up in his way home from the new works now erecting by G. -
vernment at Woolwich; the witness not being AvisfiA with this
statement, seised the property and took the defendant into custcoy,
and observed that he had recently been liberated from pi icon tar a
similar offence.
The defendant gave no other account than that whirls has beta
stated by the Officer.
The Magistrate observed that the statement was by no means sa-
tisfactory, and convicted the prisoner in the penalty of 40s. and in
default to go to prison for one month, and to be kept to hard.labour.

UNION-HALL.

A female of respectable appearance was brought to this office by
Mr. Mason, the sexton of parish, at the desire of the Rector,
charged with having made frequent disturbances in the church-yard
opposite the Rector's house, and with having, by her eccentric beha-
viour, raised disordetly crowds about his house. The particular
charge against her was, that on Monday last she paraded the church-
yard in her usual manner for several hours, and by her offensive ex-
pressions much annoyed the Rector and his family.
Mr. CHAMIBERS asked her what she had to say to this charge ?
The female, in a subdued tone, said " I never made any disturb-
ance, but Mr. Mason wishes to swear my life away ; and whenever
I pass this church-yard, the charity children hunt use about like a
mad bull."
Mr. Mason—Her interruptions have continued for a length of
time, and her conduct has been that of a mad woman. About 1
months ago she entered the church, and in the presence of the
congregation, called out to the Rector to know if he had any old
breeches to mend.
Mr. CHAM DERS.I. you make use of this language ?—Yes, I did.
Mr. Ciiamusats--What did you mean by asking the Rector such
a question at such a time ?—She hesitated,and at length exclaimed,
'The Rector has been my ruin—he has been my destruction."
Mr. CHAMBERS remarked to one of the Magistrates, he thought
she was deranged. " No," she replied calmly, "I am not mad, I
am perfectly collected; the Rector seduced me this very night
seven years ago."
Mr. Mason said, that a few days ago, she met two of the charity
girls, and said to them, " I should like to have your guts to make
garters with, and to sup your blood to-morrow for my breakfast."
She solemnly declared she had never heard the expressions before.
The girls were present, and corroborated the sexton's statement.
Mr. CHAMBEELS.—What is your name? If you have any friends,
they shall be sent for ; but unless I know who you are I shall send
you to prison.—My name is Dunn, lam a single woman ; I live in
Suffolk-street, and have friends in London, but not near me.
Mr. Mason said, that on Friday list, while the man was tolling
the bell for a funeral, she got into the church and created a confu-
sion. She declared that she had not been inside the church-doors,
for at least twelve months-41ot since the affair of the old breeches.
A messenger was then sent to her lodgings; and, on her landlady
coming to the office, she said that she had always found the young
Lady perfectly correct in her conduct, but reserved in her habits
and desirous of avoiding company or conversation.
Mr. CHAMBERS having aumonished her on the impropriety of
what she had done, said he would discharge her, if she would pledge
her word not to go near the place again; and assured her, if she was
brought before him a second time, he would certainly commit her.
Miss Dunn, after some hesitation, made this promise, and was
discharged.

CARBONIC ACID.

Dr. Edwards has announced to the French Institute,
as the result of numerous experiments made by himself,
respecting the exhalation of carbonic acid gas during
expiration, that this acid is not formed in the lungs by the
action of the respired air, but is secreted from the blood
in the respiratory organs. Dr. Edwards placed some
cold-blooded animals in pure hydrogen gas. The re-

TESTS FOR OXALIC ACID.

When it is recollected how frequently people lose
their lives by oxalic acid being taken in place of Ep-
som salts, it will be allowed that tests for the ready de
tection of this poison cannot be too generally known.
.‘ Let a few drops of vinegar be mixed with the so-
lution—if it is oxalic acid, its colour will change ;it Ep-
som salts, not: or, dip a silver spoon, or put a sixpence
into the mixture—it oxalic acid, the colour of the silver
will be changed; if Epsom salts, it will not ; as it re-
spects the taste, if the tip of the tongue be applied to
the solution, the detection would appear at once, with-
out danger, for oxalic acid is .strong, hot, and very sour.
Epsom salts have merely a gentle sort of bitter saltness:
or, dip the end of dark purple paper* into the solution;
if oxalic acid has been improvidently substituted, the
colon' of the paper will be instantaneously rendered a
bright red; on the other hand, in a solution of Epsom
salts, it remains perfectly unchanged."—:tiled. Adviser.
• The dark purple paper in common use, dyed by vegetable pur-
ple, is Litt/us:paper.

IVINDSOII, MARCH 22.

On account of the continued fall of rain, and the severity of the
weather, his MAJSSTV hai not left the Royal Castle this morning.
A numerous party is expected to dine with the Klan to-day. Among
the distinguished characters expected, are the Russian Ambassador,
the Duke of WAtuainvoir, the Marquis of AucLasav; Load J.
Pacer, Mr. Cutaxas PAGET, the Marquis Gametas, Lord and
Lady MARYBOILOUGH, &c.

,

Saturday, the Duke7r=honoured Sir CHARLES
and Lady luxe with his company to•dinner.
Sunday, the Duke of lonic honoured Mr. -and Mrs.
APAUTHNOT with his company to dinner : there was a numerous
party ofidistinguished characters to inter his Royal Highness. There
was also a numerous party to tea, &c. in the evening.
Yesterday morning the Earl of CLANCARTY, his fa-
mily and suite, arrived in town from his Embassy at the Nether-
lands, which office the Noble Earl has filled since the elevation of
the House of Orange. The Noble Earl, soon after his arrival, pro•
seeded to the Secretary of State's Office for foreign Affairs to
transact business.

Yesterday the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, the
Earl of WISTMOLLAND, atid. Earl BATHURST, transacted business at
the Foreign Office.
Earl WHITWORTH and the Duchess of DORSET enter-
tained the Duke and Duchess of Lasos and a distinguished patty
at dinner yesterday, at their house in Grosyenor-square.
Yesterday morning, as Mr. TOPSHAM And his servant
had just started in a buggy from the square, in Sloare-street, the
horse took fright at sonic mischievous boys pelting each other, got
the bit out of his mouth, and started off at full speed ; the conse-
quence was, the overturning of the chaise, which was literallf
dashed to pieces. Mr. TOPSHAM had an Mai broken, and the servant
was taken up in a senseless state.
We have the satisfaction of stating that Mr. CANNING
has, in the most prompt and humane manner, attended to the case
of Mr. Mat-mews, the Gentleman taken with Ilintio; and that he
has taken steps to procure the immediate liberation of that indivi-
dual. We have, however. reason to believe that on this as on other
occasions the British Governnient has met with some difficulty with
the Spanish Ministry, which is likely to become a subject of re-

CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.

By the Waterloo East Indiaman, arrived in the
Channel, we have received Cape Town Gazettes to the'
31st of January We are ltd to perceive that the pre-
datory incursions of the Caffres, so peculiarly injurious
to the colonists on the frontier, are likely to he put a stop
'to for the future. The following are extracts
CAPE TOWN, JANUARY 31.
We are happy to announce, that the last mail from
the frontier has brought most satisfactory accounts of
our intercourse with the "Caffres. Since the affair
against M'Gomo on the Sth of December, no cattle
whatever have been taken away by this people; that
affair made such an impression, that T'Sambie (the
most powerful Chief) shortly afterwards solicited an in-
terview with Major Somerset; at the same time, sending
back many head of cattle which had been taken from
the colonists. Major Somerset appointed Thursday, the
lsth instant, and met him on the heights beyond the
Commando Drift, on the other side of the Keiskamma.
VSambie was attended by his son and heir, Dusannie;
the chiefs. Congo, Pato, Crewina, and Habanna, and
2,500 Cares urawn up in close column. T'Sambie
being called upon for his reasons for wishing to see
Major Somerset, stated, that he came to beg to be al-
lowed to establish his Kraals on his former ground, near
the Keiskamma, and to implore that he might be left in
peace. It was explained, that unless the Chiefs under
him restored the cattle stolen from the settlers, and gave
up all deserters, Iris request could not be complied
with, and that himself and people would be destroyed.
TSambie replied that he had already sent him two de-
serters, and had brought mother with him, but be bad
been allowed to escape by Habanna; that he would
force that Chief to restore him, and requested Major
Somerset te wait two days, to afford him time to do so.
—Major Somerset agreed to this On receiving the Chief
Congo, Ray T'Sa mbie's principal Heemraad, and twenty
Caffres, as hostages. T'Sambie then assured Major Sa-
merser, that should in future any cattle be stolen by any
of the people belonging to the Captains under him, he
would immediately attack them, and make them restore
the cattle. On the 17th, TSambie sent Major Somerset
100 head of cattle, and informed him that in a day
or two he would send more. Being satisfied of T'Sam-
bie's sincerity, and Habanna not having given up the
deserter, Major Somerset crossed the Keiskamma at
eleven, P.M. on the 17.th,•with the Cape Cavalry and 50
Bargherr, under Commandant Durand, and at day
break came upon Habanna's and Nouno's Kraals. The
former had made off with all his cattle; but Captain
31assey fell in with Nouno's people, and brought away
240 head of cattle; many would have been shot, had not
Major Somerset given orders that they should be Epared.',

" It is the chief glory of Scotsmen that, next to Gnu and their
parents, they love their country and their countrymen. It is their
chief merit that they study, from their youth tin their grey hairs,
all that honours their ancestry and kindred ; hence every Scotsman
is a hero for the glory of Scotland, wise for the glory of Scotland,
and virtuous for the glory of Scotland. And it is a distinguisning
endowment of Scotsmen, that as they are familiar with their na-
tional history, so the virtues and noble deeds of past ages are elver
present to their minds, and every Scot, by the influence of example,
strives to biome an ornament to his race."—Bocnox.

On the 6th- of this month a ProClamation was pub-

sent injunctions, as for that of the orders which have been directed
to them for the general safety.
