BOW-STRRET.

James Chermel, driver of one of the Brantford stages, was charged
with having assaulted a pretty young woman, named Elizabeth
Trott, servant to a family residing at Turnham-green.
The fair complainant stated, that she got upon the defendant's
coach in Piccadilly, in order to return to her master's house: It
was nearly ten o'clock at night, and she told the defendant where
to set her down; but when they reached the place, he demanded
two shillir.gs for her fare, which she refused to give, because it Was
double the usual fare. He then treated her with some gross abuse,
refused to let her get down, and drove on furiously. At last, when
he bad driven her nearly half a mile farther than she wished to go,
he allowed her to get down ; and upon her again demurring to pay
the two shillings, he struck her repeatedly on the bead, and knocked
off her bonnet.

The defendant denied having ever seen the young woman be-
fore ; but she was positive as to his identity, and he was ordered to
find bail for his appearance twanswer the charge at the Sessions.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

Brrtiatnin Burn, the pugilist, was yesterday again before the
Magistrate, upon a warrant, charging him with a want= assault un
one AIL Paris, who it seems, is also a little in the pugilistic way.
Burn, in his defence, said, if the case was put off, he would bring
forward witnesses to prove that he got the first blow.
Mr. Ros said, that he was not going to try the mattrr, and Burn
must find bail; and the bail not being at hand, be gave directions
that Burn should be locked up, until be procured the necessary
sureties.

Peter Hill, alias Jones, alias nastioorth, and Mary alias :pie:,
alias Hartley, alias Larkins, SakS calls herself his w ife ere again
brought up, charged with unlawfully pawning some bed furniture.
The solicitor was equipped in his large brown wig, and had, in ad-
dition to his former dress, a white apron to cover his tattered gar-
ments. His intelligent and handsome countenance, together with
the shrewd and sensible manner in which he conducted his defence,
formed a sad contrast to his present miserable condition. He did
not deny that he had given orders to pawn the furniture, but the
time for which he had taken the lodgings was not expired, and on
that account the charge could not be sustained. This appeared to
be the case. The woman was discharged, and be was ordered to
prison for the former offence.
Previous to leaving the office, Mr. Rot addressed him in a fa-
miliar way, and said that after assuming so many names, Logan,
Wentworth, Hill, and on his last appearance William Jones, be
•
should just like to know what was his real name ?
My real name, said be, is William Hill.
Mr. Roc —But your christian name is not William ; you know
that the Secretary to the Mendicity Society has four letters, in
which you sign yourself P. Hill.
I have told you already my name is William; you may call me
Paul, if you like, and with that made his exit.

STOCKHOLM, OCTOBER S.

The Russian Ambassador has returned from Chris-
tiania, and immediately dispatched his Aide-dc-Camp
to St. Petersburgh.
Baron Stockelberg. a Charge d'Affatres to the United
States, embarked this week in an American ship for
New York.

The affair of the ships of war, is said to be now finally
arranged,so that they will be able to sail fromCarlscrona.
The Editor of the Argus has now given in his de-
claration respecting the insertion of the article about the
ships of war, and grounds his defence chiefly on the
following argument : gi That the Chancellor, according
to the ordonnance rdative to the freedom of the Press, is
bound to confiscate all writings in foreign languages
imported into Su eden, which contain anything contrary
to section S of article 10 of that ordonnance." Now, as
no foreign Journal, not even the Paper from which the
article was taken, has been confiscated by the Chancellor,
the Editor of the Argus considered this as a proof that
the Chancellor himself did not look upon this article as
illegal, consequently did not hesitate to insert it in his
Paper. The Jury will be chosen on Tuesday.

THE AMERICAN SHIP BRANDYWINE.

• -

The curiosity of the naval circles at Portsmouth has
been strongly excited by the arrival of the American
ship of war Brandywine, which put into Cowes Roads
on S rturday last, owing to the westerly winds. She is
last from Havre, on her way to Gibraltat. She landed
at Havre the venerable Marquis de la Fayette and
Captain Morris (also a Commissioner of the American
Navy Board), who intends proceeding through France
and Spain to meet the ship at Gibra!tar, to which place
she proceeds in charge of Lieutenant Gregory, Acting
Captain. She is to have a Commodore's broad pendant
on the Mediterranean station. This ship is of a force
and description hitherto unknown in any service; she
was launched about three months since at Washington,
and was fitted for sea immediately as an experimental
ship; she is 1,7.52 tons admeasurement, measures 165
feet on the main deck, her extreme length being 175
feet, and extreme breadth 4.5 feet; she carries sixteen
32-pounder carronades on each side on her flush deck,
and fifteen 32-pounder long guns on each side of the
main deck; mounting in all 62 guns—eight guns are
at present struck below in the hold. Her draught of
water is now 21 feet 3 inches, but was 22 feet when
she left America. She bears a compliment of 475 men,
in which are included seven Lieutenants and 25 Mid-
shipmen. We are informed that the Americans are at
present building five others of the same class, and that
they intend having eight altogether. It is also stated,
that they are building a first-rate which is to have four
decks, the upper deck to be flush, as in the case of this
ship. The mainmast of the Brandywine appears to be
further aft than is usual, but it would appear not to be
so placed by design ; she is lightly rigged and sparred.
On the passage she seldom carried sail on her mizen-
mast. Her stern is an improvement on the round
sterns of Sir Robert Seppings' introduction.

LATEST ASCEAT ON MONT BLANC.

44 llsswx Suissw, S►rr. 4, 1825.

" Among other eccentricities of my life, I have just
completed the difficult and dangerous task of reaching
the summit of Mont Blanc. A few hasty particulars
may amuse you. Dr. Edmund Clarke, myself, and
twelve guides, started from Chamouni on Thursday,
the 25th of August : we reached the summit on Friday,
the 26th, and arrived back at Chamouni en Saturday,
the 27th.—The two nights we were absent we slept, of
course, on the eternal snows, in an atmosphere of twelve
degrees below freez;ng. The dangers and difficulties
of passing the' Ulaciers des Bossons and that of Tac-
conai, and subsequently traversing the immense plains of
snow to arrive at the top, will all be more fully detailed
in a pamphlet which is to be published at Geneva in
the course of ten days, as soon as our narrative is
ready. The barometer was ten inches lower with us
than in the Valley de Chamouni, where we had a man
stationed to observe the mercury. The thermometer at
twelve o'clock in the sun was 2-12 below fre, zing only;
our pulses varied from 100 to 150. The rarity of the
atmosphere had very serious effects on us ail; one or
two of the guides bled profusely at the nose ; one spit
blood during a whole day ; I vomited during eighteen
hours with little intermission. Sleep overcame us at
every moment; but my principal guide, Coutet, son of
him who went with Monsieur de Saussure in 1717,
would not permit me to sleep on the snows a long time,
fearing the frost, &c. One of • the most remarkable
things is the most perfect silence which reigns on the
top of Mont Blanc. You do not hear one thing.
The sky is dark, quite indigo. The full moon in such
a black ground was the finest thing imaginable; one
star was visible only; our faces almost all peeled, and
our eyes were very much swollen. It was a hazardous
thing. The last ascension was four years since, when
three guides perished by an avalanche. We sealed op
a bottle with names and dates, and plunged it in the
snow. Some hundred years hence it will perhaps come
to light, for we have ascertained the probable rate of
movement of the glaciers. We found no autographs of
any sort! God bless you. " MARKHAM SHERWILL."

UNION-HALL

One of those fellows who are such nuisances in the public itreets,
parading up and down the pavement with immense placards, some
of which exhibit the most disgusting caricatures, was brought tip,
together with his placard, upon which was represented the murder
of Mt. Cass and his wife, done to the life.

The street-keeper took the liberty of depriving the mob of thrir
amusement, by banding the placard-bearer to this Office, whn, after
having been divested of Isis " Murders," cried like a chat!, and
assured the Magistrates, that should be for this time escape Lein;
sent to the tread-mill, be would never again appear in the eisttut
of the Surrey Magistrates.
The sitting Magistrate said, that he would never overlook the
offettee on those conditions, and ordered the plrcard to be burnt.

A bly named Simmonds, about seven years of age,
fell into a well 4.0 feet deep, at Brighton, on Thursday.
He fell into the bucket, and was drawn out agAiti with

ADVANTAGES EXCLUSIVELY BELONGING TO
THIS INSTITUTION.
PREMIUMS for Young and Middle-aged Lives
lower than in any Office in England ; payable Annually, Half.
yearly, or Quarterly, or for a limited number of Years only.
A Temporary precautionary Capital of £200,000, which will be
paid off as soon as an adequate Surplus Capital shall have been ac-
cumulate.' from the Premiums, for short terms ; thus the sub-
scribed Capital serves as a Security to the Assured without perma-1
nently draining the Profits.
Three-fourths of the Profits divided amongst the Assured, until
the Shareholders are paid off, and thenceforth the entire Profits,
by additions to their Policies, with Interest thereon in Reduction
of the Premium.
The Trustees sign every Policy, and give the Assured an imme-
diate remedy against the Fund itself.
On the back of every Policy for the whole Term of Life, is a
Scale of its true value from Year to Year, at which price the So-
ciety contract to purchase it, or to Lend two-thirds thereof to the
Holder, to enable him to continue the future Premiums without
inconvenience.
The Assured having the Contract of the Trustees- to purchase
Policies, may reduce the Annual Premiums at pleasure. For in-
stance, by taking Ten Policies of £lOO each, instead of one of
£l,OOO, whenever a Bonus of £llO is added to the gross amount,
the Assured, by selling one Policy to the Society, will receive its
true value, and reduce his Premium one-tenth, without diminish-
ing the £l,OOO. Thus, he may either apply the Bonus in augmen-
tation of the Suns Insured, or in Reduction of his future Premiums.

MEXICO.

FROM THE OACRTA DIARIO OF MEXICO,
Hostilities have again been commenced between the
Royalists of the Castle of St. Juan de Ulloa and the
town of Vera Cruz, in consequence of a stratagem of
the Mexican brig Victoria, which, by using French
colours, succeeded in capturing a Spanish gun-boat,
and a row-boat with a number of Officers. The firing
from the Castle commenced on the 19th of August,
but was not returned until the day following, in orckr
to give the inhabitants time to retire into the country.
On the evening of the 20th, a tremendous fire was kept
up on both sides.
The ship Asia, which surrendered some time ago, has
been directed by the President to be called the Mexican
Congress.
The mines of Zacatecas, from the year 1546 to 1818,
have produced 69,614,409 mares of silver, equivalent
to 608,102,319 dollars.
The total receipts of the public Treasury for the
month of May, were 489,655 &Mars ; the disburse-
ments for the same period, 434,367 dollars.
The port of Tampico, during the dominion of the
Kings of Spain, was a mere resort of illicit commerce.
Its importance is at this time well understood. The
greater part of die goods used in the Provinces of New
Santander, Leon, Coahuila, San Luis Potosi, Zacatecas,
Durango, &c. are introduced through this port. The
Custom-house produces an annual amount of duties ofl
195,000 dollars.
The river of Guasacualco affords the best port in the
Gulf of Mexico. It is the only river that will admit
vessels of war, there being at all seasons twenty-two
feet of wrer on the bar at its mouth. This river is
navigable for large vessels sixty or seventy miles into
the inierior: and it is not strange that the Spanish Go-
vernment should have refused to the inhabitants of
Oajaca the benefits of such extensive navigation. If a
canal,should be cut thr..ugh the isthmus of Tehuan-
tepec, an establi hment will necessarily be formed on
tile river for the use of the navy.
The Mexican Suit states, that a circular has been sent
by his Holi; ess to the Archbishops and Bishops of
America. It received the approbation Of his Catholic
• :Majesty, after iconsultation with the Supreme Council
of the Indies. The Pope dwells on the injury &Me to

GLASGOW, DECEMBER rt.

Sunday morning the Clyde had risen to a height
unknown in this city since the memorable flood of 1782-
The river had been very considerably swain an Thurs-
day night,but decreased a little on the evening of Fr ida y.
The thaw, which had only been partial, on Friday
evening, became general, and as the night advanced,
an exceeding heavy rain, with a strong gale from the
S.W. commenced. About six o'clock, am. the river
began rising in earnest, and continued increasing the
whole of Saturday, and Saturday night, till about six
or seven o'clock on Sunday morning, when it had at-
tained its utmost height. On the south side of the
river, the waters of the Clyde drove back the Blind
Barn, and in consequence, many of the extensive works
in Hutchesontown, became deeply flooded, and much
damagrhas been sustained. On the north side of the
river, however, the damage and mischief were greatest,
more especially about the foot of the Stockwell Salt-
market, Bridgegate, and places adjacent. Early on
Saturday evening the water had entered the greater
number of houses on these parts, and continuing to rise,
many of the unfortunate inmates were compelled to
abandon their dwellings; and seek refuge where they
could find it, and others sought safety in the upper
stories, where they remained cut off from assistance,
and any possibility of escape. In this part of the city,
the buildings and population, chiefly of the labouring
and poorer classes, are the densest, and it may therefor e
be readily conceived, that the mischief and misery
thereby created, has been very great in their numerous
low, dark, damp, and at the best but uncomfortable
abodes. The only serious casualties which we have
heard of, however, took place in the Goose Dubs, where
one poor woman was drowned, and another found
dead near Port Eglinton, probably from the inclemency
.1 of the weather. Several individuals escaped frith se-
vere ducking:.

Thonday, a man named Field, living at Queen-
borough, was committed to Maidstone Jail, charged
with having committed a rape oa a widow, forty years
of age.
A man, named Higgins, who was last week com-
mitted for trial at Cheltenham, charged with theft, on
being discovered, acteally swallowed three half-crowns I

MARINERS CHURCH SOCIETY.—A Meeting of the
friends of this Institution was held at Liverpool, yes-
terday se'nnight, the Lord Bishop of CHESTER in the
Chair. ffs Lordship, in a speech of some length, la-
mented the little provi.ion which had been hitherto
made for the religious instruction of seamen ; he noticed
the arguments used by those who are opposed to this
laudable measure, which, he said, to his mind, were
utterly lu:ile. When the business of the day had been
completed, and a subscripti :is made, his Lordship un-
dertook to use his influence in bringing over such of
the Clergy as were opposed to the measure. The
Meeting then broke up.
It is intended, at the next Select Vestry Meeting to
he held at Mansfield, to pass a resolution to withhold
parochial relief from all persons keeping dogs or fight-
ing cocks.
