Wednesday night an accident that threatened serious
consequences befel Sir WILLIAM and Lady TA tnszon. The
carriageborses at starting plunged so violently, that the coachman
broke both reins in endeavouring to coatroul them, and then jumped
off the box to stop them, but the shock threw him down. Mean-
while the horses set off at speedwith the carriage, taking the Botley
road,burst open the turnpike gate, passed over all the bridges after
grating some of the ballustrades, and were at length stopped near
Botley, by the foot boy, who having been jolted off the coach box,
had clung with difficulty to the foot board, and thence crept along
the pole Of the carriage to the horses' beads. We are happy to add
that the coachman is but slightly bruised, and that Sir WILLIAM
and Lady Tammy sustained no injury beyond the fright of so
perilous an adventure.
MARSH, STRACEY, AND CO.-41. meeting of the cre-
ditors that have subscribed for the purpose of having the accounts

Oxford Tavern, Oxford-street, for the purpose of receiving the re-
port of the accounts from the sub-committee. J. Lunn, Es q. was
called to the Chair. The CHAIRMAN, after opening the business,
directed their atteation to a singular circumstance, that in 1514,
new account was opened, and continued in the hand-writing of
Falmtleruy alone • yet in a few mouths it receives indiscriminatelyl
the hand-writing Of Messrs. Stracey and Graham, along with that
of Mr. Fauntleroy, until June, 1824, from which date, to the failure
of the house, the whele of the credit side is again solely in the hand-
writing of Mr. Fauntleroy. A Member of the Committee then
stated, that they had made important discoveries, but dtd not deem
jt politic to make them public, lest it might prejudice them. It was
Wowed, seconded, and carried unanimously," That the solicitors be
requested to attend the public meeting on Monday next, and take
such course with respect to the last examination of the bankrupts
, is they. may deem expedient and advantageous for the interest of
the teeditass."-i-The meeting then adiourued.
