SUMMER ASSIZES.

'CHESTER, SEPTEillitit 1

This morning.the Court sat precisely at -eight o'clock,
when William Brooks, who had 'been found guilty of
cutting and maiming Margaret Rhodes, was ordered to
be put to the bar. The Clerk of the Arraigns said,
" William Brooks, what have you to say why judgment
of death should not be passed upon you according to
law r
Prisoner-1 have served a long time in his Majesty's
sC r vice, and I hope your Lordship will be merciful to
ere.
The Cum Justice then proceeded .to pass sentence'
of death on the prisoner, in the most solemn manner,
as follows:—" William Brooks, you have been tried on
an indictment charging you with wilfully and mali-
ciously cutting and stabbing Margaret Rhodes, with
an intent to murder bor. The Jury acquitted you of
of the first part of the Indictment, and found you guilty
upon the second, of the cutting and maiming the said
Margaret Rhodes, with the view of doing her some
bodily harm; and there is no doubt•that if her death
had followed, that you would have beeit tried for wil-
ful murder. The Court delayed passing judgment in
hopes that something might transpire favourable to
your character. This has been the case, and we, have
thought anxiously whether we could come to the con-
clusion of recommending you to his Majesty's Oda.=
mercy, which we shall do, bet whether you will be

.4ech you to employ the short time you may hays to
live in this world in prayer and repentance, and not to
indulge in the hope of mercy on this side of the grave.
My painful duty is now to pronounce *the awful sen-
teoce of the law upon you, which is, that you, William
Brooks, for the crime you have been found guilty of,
he taken to the place from w!..ence you came, and from
thence to the place of execution, and there be hanged
by the neck until you are dead, and may the Lunt,
have mercy on your soul."

The prisoner looked dreadfully pale, and knelled
down the whole time; be trembled exceedingly. His
execution (if not respited) is expected to take place
on the 15th.

The use of steam.enginet is rapidly extending in
Trance. Petier and Co. of Chaillot, erected a foundery
for'steam-engines only five or six years since, and for
the last twelve months have been in the habit of turning
out an engine a Week; 'but the deinand increases so
rapidly, that they have'nO means of keeping pate with
it. In the mean time, Manby and Wilson, at Cha-
renton, and others in the same line, am perhaps as fully
occupied. One circumstance will prove that the taste
for these enginet is spreading,. at least as much from
11:e spirit of emulation, as a growing conviction of
tl.eir utility. An indisidnal at Rheims determined' to
Let'up a steam-engine, and the circumstance transpired.
Itnitiediately three other persons, engaged in the same
husidesi, Settled in their eon minds that they must have
steaithengines tot • and the whole patty proceeded to-
gether to P.Aris, ordered four engines of Perier and Co.
of the same power and same cost, and directed that they
should be ret up on the sanie day.
It is very generally reported in the political circles of
the I,4.eit Eud, that Lord COM' itANE has sent in his

led to this singular measure have, we understand, been,
within these few days, the free topics of disCussion in
certain clubs, chiefly frequented by persons of his Lord-

DAN ER AT AIR, TO THE MARQVIS OF
HAS "IVO&
On Wednesday last a. pablic dinner was given to tie
Marquis of kiiiAttios at Ayr, at the County Buildings,
which we!! SEL,, elegant manner some days
before. . •
At lo'clock,oil Wednesday afternoon, the Mar-
quis and *cite -arrived at the King's Arms Inn. The
populace collected greeted his arrival with enthusiastic
cheers. Re was waited on by the Provost and Magis-
trates-of the town, who presented him with an Address,
expressive of their attachment to his person, and their
respect for hii merits. From the inn 'he proceeded,
about six o'clock, to the County Rooms ; shortly after-
wards Lord Glasgow, the Lord Lieutenant, took the
Chair. the Marquis of Hastings, the Lord Justice
Clerk, Sir Andrew CathCart, and other distinguished
`characters sitting on his left hand; and the Duke of
Portland, Lord James Stewart, the Provost of Ayr,
Sir James hlontgomerie Cunninghame, etc. &c. on-the
right. Sir D. H. Blair acted as Croupier, the young No-
blemen, Lord Rawdon, and the Earl of Eglington.
being:eyed on his right and left hands. More than one
hundred N tblemen and Gentlemen, of the highest rank
and distinction in the county, filled the seats surround-
ing the tables:
On the removal of the cloth. Now noir Doming proceeded from
the °Fribourg, and the toasts of the Kling—the Royal Family—the
Duke .t Tort and the Army—the Duke., Clarence and tie Navy
—were given from the Chair—the first prefaced by *brief but ener-
getic eulogy on bis Majesty, and each followed by the music pecu-
liarly adapted to it.
The CHAIRMAN proposed the health of the Marquis
of Hastings in a neat and highly complimentary speech.
The toast was received with reiterated cheers, evi-
dently the effusions of hearts fraught with affection to-
wards the Noble Marquii.
When the ebullition of feeling hid subsided, the Mar-
quis rose, and began by observing, he might certainly
expect ctedit when he said that the compliment he had
just received from their Noble Chairman was met by
him with the greatest sensibility. He would be the
dullest of the dull did his heart not vibrate to those ex-
pressions of their feelings and to their unction of his pub-
lic and private life. Self-love, be said, was always prone
to accept approbation freely, and he was afraid the exag-
gerated estimate which bad been formed of his charac-
ter was calculated to bring that passion into play ; but
there .was, be could not hide it from himself, a source of
seetet satisfaction within him, that for the good of his
country he had made some exertions. Various circum-
stances, indeed, led him to doubt whether those exertions
were calculated to produce beneficial results, but some
such results perhaps had been produced, and in the pro-
duction of them he might safely say be had some
share. The compliments of the Gentlemen around him
he regarded differently from the unstudied approbation
of his remoter friends. Were he to view the friends
he now addressed as neighbours alone, there would be
enough to gratify his pride; or, if there be an honest
pride existing in the mind at all, it must be felt when
neighbours voluntarily bestow their approbation. But
when be looked *round him and observed the Noble.
men and Gentlemen he ark/rested, he could regard them
as something more—be could MOO them as Men
liberal and enlightened ; aid it was the. haul* cir-
cumstance in his life, not only that he received-their
approbation, but could: claim conneetion with- them.
and with the County of Ayr generally. It was one of
the highest honours to be 'told by them, that he had
done his duty—an honour which would be proudly
:contemplated by his lateit posterity. The Noble
had taken occasion to alludelererwereiellp
- - moose:a-of thowtanageffteht if the
____nense and complicated concerns of that conntrymany
Jnstances of error,ite said, must be presumed to have
arisen ; but, as regarded the native Princes, there was one
line of conduct which could not be mistaken; and if, in
pursuing that line, be bad used those measures which
were best calculated for manifesting the adraireilequity
and munificent generosity of theConstitutioe of this great
nation, then probably hensight have some claim to their
approbation. The Noble Marquis begged of them once
more to accept his thankfulness. "My tongue," said
be, in conclusion, 46 does not satisfy me, but my heart
dues so."
The speech was' appropriately followed by the long
Loudortn's bonnie woods and braes, to the air of Lori
Moira's welcome to Scotland.
Whilst the Meeting was thus delighted within, the
populace without were amused with a grand display of,
fire-works in the square in front of the public buildings;
and we niayclose this our preliminary account, by ob-
serving that all parties were highly gratified with the
scene, and that each vied with the other in honouring
the name, the talents and the worth of the Noble
Marquis.

A very numerous meeting of all the principal Ca-
tholic Nobles and Gentry of Meath, together with many
Protestants of the highest rank in the county (among
the latter of whom were Lords DARNLEY, BECTIVR,
and DUNSANY. Sir M. Somenviote, Hon. br. Brawl,
Ste.), was held on Tuesday last at Navan. Lord Ku.-
, ours, the Hon. Mr. PRESTON, Messrs. BARNRWALL,
!Moaner., &c. moved resolutions declaring the ne-
cessity of unanimity, rebutting the isoputations of di-
vided allegiance,,&c. and recommending a petition to
the Lords; .and shpt " the Catholic Hierarchy, Arista
cracy, and Gentry, should meet for 14 successive days
in Dublin in January next. All which were carried
with the loudest applauses. Lord GORMANSTOWN was
in the Chair.
Madame PASTA, with some other distinguished
singers, has been performing at the Academic Reyek 4
Musique, for the benefit of the people who suffered by
fire at Satins. All the places were filled ;' the Salcon
was encumbered ; in a word, all the usual accompani- '
vents of a crowd ensued, and the receipts were 10,000
francs-4001. on which the French writer of the Journal
des Debuts remarks, that when the receipts of all Paris
are added together, they will not amount to SO,OOO franesl
—1,200/. and those of all the theatres of France tai
60;000-2,404%.
The description given by Madame De GINLIS of the
scene which immediately followed the murder of the
Duke Da BERRI, is very striking:—" The Ladies of the
Duchess DI Beam, who hastened to the spot at this
fatairtnoment, were in full dress, having just quitted the
ball. They were covered with flowers and tinsel, and
in these dresses they sturnunded the bed of the dying
Doke. A white robe, trimmed with roses. with the
Duches watt, was literallr soaked in blood, and the
dresses of the Parsecs were splashed in many places. At
the same moment, not two paces from this distressing
scene, the Opera continued, and the singing and dancing
went on. When the door in the little saloon, whither
the unhappy Prince was at first carried, was opened to
give him some air,.the sound of the orchestra and the
violins was distitittlrhearti."

PORTSMOUTH. SEPTEMBER 3.

On Thursday arrived his Majesty's sloop of war the
Thracian, 18, Captain Andrew Forbes, (torn the West
India Station, to be paid off, having been employed
there three years. • She left Part Roll on the 14th t,fl
jatt (two days after the Rinaldo packet, which arrived
it Falmouth on Sunday), and touched at the Hayed-
nab. as a strong report prevailed at Port Royal that a
French squadron had taken possession of the island of
Cuba ; but, with the exception that the Spanish Cont.
mndnre Laborde had hoisted the flag of a Rear-Admi-
ral, in consequence of his superior officer having re-
signed the command, there had been no public event
occurred of the least importance. Laborde had a fri-
gate, two sloops of war, and two schooners under his
command. It appeared that the fourteen sail of French
ships of war, which had assembled at St. Pierre, Mar-
tinique. had left that anchor:l4e for St. Domingo, fin
the purpose
of giving an imposing effect to the propo-
sals made by the French Government to that of the
Haytians, for the recognition of their independence;
and that having performed this mission, they were on
their return to France. This squadron consisted of
L'Eyl an, 80 (Vice. A dftiiral Ju rier) ; Jean Bart. '74,
(Vice-Admiral Grival); Circe. Nymph, Magicienne
Venus, Clorinda. Medee, and Themis frigates; Ruse,
Curieux and Antelope brigs ; Bearnoise schooner, and
Salamander armee en jiute. Accounts received at Ha-1
vannah from Vera Cruz, stated that a conspiracy had
been formed by the Mexican troops'at Sacrificio, which
was deigned to surrender the island to the Spanish
Commandant at St. Jean d'Ulloa; but the ringleaders
being promptly secured and executed, tranquillity was
restored. The dissatisfaction was treated b irregu-
lathy In their pay.
When the Thracian-left Jamaica,
the corps-and shippiniwere healthy. The ships at Port
Royal were, Hussar,. Rattlesnake, Bellette and Scout;
the last mentioned was appointed to sail for England
on the 16th of July, via Porto Rico. The Primrose
bad sailed for Barbadoes with species on board; at
which station were also the Ringdove. Britomarte, and
Eden. Tne Pylades and Beaver had sailed for Hon-'
duras ; Isis and. Ferret for Carthegena ; Valorous foe
Bermuda and Nassau. The Lively and Icarus were
daily expected from cruising ; the latter was to pro.
teed immediately to England. The Thracian left Ha.
srannah on the 2Sd of July, with a favourable wind,
which continued with little intermission, until the morn-
ling of the Ist of August, when about sixty miles from
Cape Hatteras, in latitude 55. 40 N. and 41. 57 W. she
encountered a tremendous hurricane, with a confused
sea, altd was obliged, from. becoming water-logged.'
and in a sinking state, to cut sway the mizen-mast, and
throw twelve of her guns overboard. Happily no lives
were lost, but five of the crew were very severely in-
jured. The passengers by her are—Lieutenants West,
Butler, and Liardet, of the Navy.. Lieutenant Charles
Croker of the Icarus, had been promoted to the rank
of Commander. and appointed to.the Pylades, vice
Captain Fred, invalided; and Lieutenant Love (son of
Captain Love, R.N.) wa appointed to command the
Renegade schooner, vice Uardet, invalided. The
Thracian is come into harbour to be paid off.
Yesterday morning arrived the. Soothworth trans-
port, Lieutenant Jobs Saunders, from the Leeward
lblands, with invalids and limited-service men from all
'the corps in that quarter. She left Birbadoes on the
Allst, and Antigus'on the 28th of July, and brought

Wednesday arrived at the Motherbank, from Cadiz,
Malta, Gibraltar, last from Naples, the Mary Ann
yacht, Aldboroogh Richardson, Esq. with Captain
IMaultain, R.N. and Mr. Ruddle, passengers. This is
'the smallest vessel, probably, that ever passed the
Straits of Gibraltar from England, being but little above
thirty-five tons butthen. An unpleasant, and on the
pan of the Spanish Goiernment Authorities at Cadiz,
a very improper occonsoes took place on the outward
passage of this yacht toll* Mediterranean, and which
we shall give in the words of the worthy Gentleman who
owns here—" Upon leaving England, in May last, for
the Mediterranean, I took for my expenses, and for the
payment of the men, two hundred sovereigns, which 1
placed in my portmanteau, in a small red bag. Upon
arriving at Cadiz, and being liberated from quarantine,
I. sent the portmanteau, by the Master of the vessel, ac-
companied by a young Gentleman, a friend of mine, to
whom I gave the keys, to the Custom-house. Upon
the portmanteau being. opened, they took the mosey
and a small box, containing three fasailymourning rings,
said it was not allowable to bring money into Spain
or jewels, and detained my friend and the master untie;
a guard. One 01 my men coming and informing me
of this, I, together with Captain Haaltain of the Royal
Navy, waited uponthe Consul. who irovnetehis security
for the appearance bf the detained. days after-
wards, I might have the money and the rings back, if
I would give fifty pounds. This I reluctlatly did, as
I wished to proceed on my voyage as soon is possible,
land by so doing, at the loss of hity pounds, recovered
the remainder of my property. This is a plain state-
ment of the case; had such happened to a person who
find" sot much to. losi, it might have been of seicims
consequence to him."
List night, the Baltic Merchant, Lieutenant Lester,
Agent, arrived at the Mother Bank, froin the Mediter-
ranean, laden with lime-juice and old rope, and having
invalided soldiers from the regiments serving in the.
lonian Wands, and other parts of the Mediterfanean,
on board. She left Malta on-the 25th of 'July, and
touched at Gibraltar; no British man-of-war was art
either place.—The Revenge, Sir Harry Neale. was sit.
petted at Malta from Marseilles, to refit, and then pro-
ceed to Naples. Lady Neale had gone to Paris for her
health.—The Sybilk, Rose, Weazie, and Chanticleer,
were at the lonian Islanda—The Cambrian, Seringapa.
tam, Alacrity, and Sparrowbawke, at Smyrna and in'
the Archipelago; the Algerine was at Marseilles:, the
Naiad at Naples.—The Eglinton and William Harris
transports, with troops and stores from England, passtd
Gibraltar on their way to the lonian Islands; about the
12d August ; the Diadeni with the 7th Fusileers, touched
lat Mafia on the 10th July. from England. on her way
to Corfu ; the Prinersi Royal and Borodino bad passed
Malta, with the temainder of the Fusileers, for the lonian
Islands.

File, ho! ye men of Kent!
Rise, and buckle On your swords,
• IT ye weld not how your necks
Beneath the yoke of Norman Lords. .
Rise. ho! ye men of Kent!
For the foe is on the waves;
If ye would not kiss the dust •
• Before Ilse Basted and his slates
With a fieigho!
We'll let the mid& know,
That the merry men of Kent
Can bend an English bow !
They have helms, and they have shields.
All of iron and of gold ;
But neither gold not iron
Can make the comatd bold.
Than through their shields and helmets
Our bolts shall find their way, -
Ard not a girl in Kent • •
13.4 will laugh to see the day.
With a heigho !
'Twill be a pretty show,
When the merry men of Kent.
Shall bend the •Erw,tish bow!

Then let 'ern come, my brave buys !
'Ti. the better still for Kent ;
There sever was a Kentish heart,
That knew what danger meant.
Here'. hussa for noble Harold !
And Goa defend the right!
We'll make 'cm wish 'em back spin,
Before to-morrow night.
With • heigho!
By St. George! hut 'twill be so.
When the merry men of Kent
Once bend the English bow !

DEATH OF DEMETRIADES.

• Saturday se'nnight, in the 70th year of his age, at
his lodgings, in St. Peter-le-Bailey, Oxford, Constantine
Demetriades, a native of Greece. This •ery extraor-
dinary character was born in September, 1755, at Nau-
pactus, now called tnelsea or Lepanto, which gives its
name to the Corinthian Gulf. He came to England
several years ago, with Lord Elgin, since which he
has resided-at Reading and Oxford. He pr dessed to
be a teacher of languages, and had, occasionally, a few
pupils. He was well acquainted with his own lan.-
gu-rge, the modern Greek, and also with Italian.—
He was penuriotis in the extreme, and chiefly lived on
the contributions of the humane, who pitied his appa-
rer tip helpless and miserable condition; yet he was in
possession of considerable property (upwards of 1000/.
in the Bank of England), which he has left to four
holy fathers, papas or patriarchs of the Greek Church,
with directions that his soul, and the souls of his father
and mother, may be prayed for continually during
100 years after his decease. His executor is a Gentle-
man of respectability at Re•iding, in whose hands he
had deposited money for his funeral expenses, which
Were not to exceed eight pounds; and also for his oc-
casional wants, from which fund he drew with great
sparingness and compunction, and only when he was
unable to draw on the compassion of others. He
had a great antipathy to any portrait being taken of
him. This was effected, however, some time since, by
stratagem; but he consigned all the parties concerned
in the contrivance, more particularly the artist, to per
dition, and excommunicated them in the names of all
the Saiiiti in the Greek Church ; which written excom-
munication he caused to be exhibited in some of the
shops of Oxford.
He was about five feet high, always wore a very
long brown great coat, closely buttoned, and half-
boot• : walked rather stoopingly, with a stick, and had
a tel blotchy face.

Wlien•King JAMES I. ordered Lord SALISBURY.to
give 5,0001. to his favourite Rooms Ten, the 'treasurer,
who thoug'it it an extravagant present, where there was
solittle merit, laid the whole sum in specie on a table,
in the room through which his MAJESTY was to pass,
sflio, very much astonished at the sight ef such heaps
of money, asked him, for what purpose those vast
sums were assigned? The Earl told him that he had
his MAJESTY'S orders to pay them to Lord ROCHESTER.
Oons, man," said the KING," lice a heap o'siller is too
much for (My one subject;' and ordered him but half.
FATAL. Comtnaticira.—Oa a tornb-st.one in the
burying-ground of Church Cretterw, a village in Shrop-
shut, on th road between Ludlow and Shrewsbury, is
this Epitaph :-
44 On a Thursday she was born,
On a Thursday made a bride. •
On a Thursday put to bed,
On a Thursday broke herleg, and •
On a Thursday died!" •
There was said to have been an old law in Spain,
which decreed that if a Gentleman was convicted of
even a capital offence,he should be pardoned, on pleading
his having bezn intoxicated at the time,he comm. tzed it ;
it being supp-issd that any one who burr the character of
gentility weuld mere readily suffer death than confess
himself capable of committing such a vice:
Thursday. was shot on pelt of the estate of the Mar-
quis of Salisbury, at Hatfield, H..as, with one gun, the
prodigious number of 220 pntridges,2o7 of which were
actually bagged and produced within tae short space of
eight hours.
The editor of an American Paper, the ...Salem Observer,
, thus apologizes to his readers for the absence of origi-1
nal articles during the late hot weather :—" The only
apology we can offer for the absence of original arti-
cles in this day's paper, is the excessive heat of the wea-
ther, which has actually dried up the ink in our stands,
and reduced us to such a state of lassitude 45 prevenrs us
from ascertaining whether the Wit in our brains has not
shared the -satne.fates"
WHAT NEXT !—We have heard of eggs, lying upon
a slate in the sun. being roasted during the hot weather,
in the United States, and the fish in the Rhode-Island
ponds, and Pennsylvanian rivers, being boiled fit for the
table, but that is nothing in comparison with the effects
of the heat at Her kimer. The American. of that place
states, that in two gardens •in that s illage apples were
plucked from the trees lately, with one si e of them
roosted by Me sun, almost to a .pulp.• This isa pretty
particular considerable yarn, but it is surpassed by the
following story, which is taken fain: a.Niw York paper.
" A rca, ectable Gontleman stated, that on*Friday he
purchased a basket of eggs in the markets which were
placed in one of his pantries i that during' the. hottest
part. f the following day, one of the eggs nearest the
, top opeasid, and a Chicken hopped out. which may be
seen at his house, No. 141. Fulton-sweet."

kUrillUt ..PARTIc(JARI.
Saturday morning, 'about half-past eight ..ticktirk,
White chapel-road and the numerous etreetathatsbound
there,• we eahibwn into the greatest stateerf•
by the •inhabitarne -ezperieitcing a mo-t tremendous
shock, as if caused by a eolcaeo or an earthquake,.
The houses for a considerable distance were deserted
~by their -inluthitanti, -and men, avomen, and • children,
were seen running in all directions, underan impression
that the world teas at: an end. It was soon ascertained
'that their alarm was produced by the explosion of the
factory of Mr. Brock, the artist in fire e elks, at No.
11, Baker's-rilw, Whitechapel-road, neatly opposite
the London Hospital. The following partiCulats, re-
lative to this direful disaster, have just rerched us i
Mr. Stock has resided for..the last five.)eats Baker's-
row, and at the back of his dwellieg house is his re-
'pository fra- fit e-works, where they are manufactured.
This builJing is about fifty-five feet by twenty, and
contains three magazines, Which are lined eith kid,
and would be Ferfectly secure from fire, should it occur
on any of the adjoining premises. In these receptacles
were deposited all the powder, composition, and, in
fact. all the combustible ma ter, and Mr. B. wasae-
markable for the method he had taken to prevent y
accident occurring on his premises. A few weeks since
he had taken two boys out of the poor-house to instruct
in the art of fi•ework-making, and he kept them
chiefly employed in filling and ramming the ewes of
the sky rockets, serpents, squibs, &c. The latter part of
this stage of the work is done by a funnel, or piece of
tin made in the shape of an extinguisher, and a small
piece of iron wire, about a foot long, which is use-1 as
a ramrod. The small end, or nipple, as it is called,.
of the extinguisher, is introduced into one mid of the
rocket or squib, and the boys ram the powder and
wadding down with the ramrod. Saturday, at the
time above stated, Mr. Brock and his arisen lett the
factory to go to breakfast, leaving the two -boys en-
gaged at the werk-board, ramming the sky-rockets.
They had scarcely sat down to their meal, when they,
as well as the inhabitants around them for some dis.
tance, heard a sort of rumbling noise, as if of distant
thunder, and the neat moment a tremendous and deaf-
ening explosion follotved, when the air was illumined
with lights of various descriptions, and accompanied
by continued reports. The concussion was so great,
that the inmates in the different houses %sere shaken
in their seats, many of whom. were sitting at their
breakfast, and the tables and tea-things were upset and
blokes to pieces. The window-frames were all forced
out, and the brickbats and materials were flying about
in every direction. The roofs of Mr. Brock's manu-
factory, and the factory of Mr. M‘Devitt, adjoining.
were blown a considerable height, and the falling
materials did considerabl- mischief. Alter the agita-
tion had somewhat subsided, an incffry into the cause
of the accident took place, when it appeared from the
statement of the two boys (who were blown a consider-
ab.e height and much injured), that they were at work,
ramming the rockets, when the ramrod struck against
the funnel, and the friction caused a spark, which flew
into the bowl of the gunpowder, that stood near them ;
this soon exploded, and ran like a train to.
-all the other
fireworks in.the factory, and at length corionunicatcd to
the magazines, which caused the disaster. Mr. Brock,
however, declares it could not have arisen in that way,
as the nipple of the funnel was.copper, therefore, friction
would not cause a spark. 0.. e po •r woman, sister to
the beadle, who lives next door to Mr. Brock, was
so dreadfully injured by the broken glass, ti.at sl;e
lies in the London Hospital without hopes of re-overy.
The tellowing houses have been injured by the ex-
plosion :—ln Baker's-row, Mr. Anderton, butcher ;
Plunkett, beadle of Whitechapel ; Prendergast, co.:1-
,dealer ; Livesay, baker. In Princes-street, Mr. Davies,
coal-dealer; Kenning, tallow-chandler; Bose ell, iron-
monger ; Constantine, tailor; Philemon, clothes-deaser;
the King's head public•house, at the corner, and about
sixty other houses, most of which have their windows
demolished horn top to bottom. We are sorry to state
*that Mr. Brc ck, who is considered. a most ingenious
Artist, is, by this accident, reduced to ruin, .as he was
uninsured, not being able to pay the premium required
by the Insurance Offices, his business being treble
haaardous. His loss is estimated at three hundred
pounds, and he has a wife and six children. He states
that he had only twenty-eight pounds' weight of powder
by him at the time, but the mischief was done by the
quantity of fireworks that were on the premises in as
unfinished state, and the powder and composition
being thus confined was the cause of so much mischief
b:ing done.

CALICO NTING.-I.IIC. Rochester Republican st a' es,
that an establishment for printing calico is about to be
established in Troy, New York. It is supposed the
buildings and machinery will cost about one million of
dollars.. A large manufacturing hou.e in Manchester,
(England) is deeply interested in this estabishment.
The sale of the large estates of the Marquess of AN-
oLEsEY, last wee k, at Milborne Port, was by no means
numerously attended, and tto greater part of the pro-
petty is still unsold.. The Clifton Estate was knocked
down at 50,0001.; Mr. BRIDGE, the goldsmith, is said
to be the purchaser. The Bradt', rd property was
.puti
up at 45,0001. and the extensive farm of SherbornO
Wyke at 13,0001. but neither had bidders.
Henry William Younger, of Thatcham, near S:rat-
ford, a youth of eighteen, was wounded by the dis-
charge of his brother's gu-, when out shooting on Fri-
day, and he died yesterday morning, to the inexpressible
grief of his family. His btotlor, Faiward, was getting
through a hedge, the dog being at the full point in the
next field, when his gun.' went off, • and lodged the
greater part of its contents in the deceased's side, at a
few paces off.

A few days ago, as some workmen were pulling
down an ancient wall ol St. David's-hill, Exeter, they
'found deposited under a fountain-stone a very curious
hronzte medal or counter, about an inch in diameter,
and in fine preservation; from the workmanship it ap-
pears to have been struck at the latter end of the 14th,
or the beginning of the 15th century, probably in honour

F.IVIAORDIWARY CASK or VIOLATION.-013 Saturday an inquiry
took 'place before Mr. Draft, the sitting Magistrate, into the cir-
cumstaaces of a charge which bad been preferred by a married wo-
man named White, against a young man named Robert Owlet, for
** fraudulently" violating her person.
Thursday Mrs. White came to this once in a state of grief bor-
dering on despair. She applied for a warrant against the prisoner
for a capital offence ; but on stating the particulars of the trance&
lion, although it appeared that the violation had been completed.
yet, from no resistance .having been made on ber part, the Magis-
trates thougbt proper to issue a warrant for an assault only.
Avis, the officer, brougtithe prisoner from St. George's watch-
house, and when he was placed at the bar he seemed to be greatly
alarmed. He has been recently discharged from a Gentleman's
family. and appears to be about thirty years of age. • '
The complainant and her husband arc young ; they formerly
lived in the service of a family at the West end of the town, and re-
cently commenced business in White Horse-court, Piccadilly, -The
complainant was in a state of distraction, and the husband' in tears
all the time they were before the Magistrate.
Mr. White being sworn, stated that ou Wednesday everting the
prisoner, with a coachman of lord Cholmondeley's, and himself,
were at a public-house in Shepherd's-market, Oxford-street, drink-
ing together. They afterwards went to a public-house in Down-
street, Piccadilly, and there they drank brandy and water till they
were in a state of intoxication. About twelve o'clock at night the
prisoner said that he was dicked out of his lodgings, and be did not
know what be should do fur a bed. He proposed to witness to go
to his house, and to skt7 in one of the anus-chain donne the night.
Witness agreed to permit him to do so, rather than he should walk
the streets all the night. They arrived at the house of the witness
An White-horse-covet, Piccadilly, about half-past twelve o'clock,'
' and both sat downand fell asleep. Ac this time the wife of the
witness was in hallo the attic. and witness iutestatru to have gone
to bed, but by was so overcoute with liquor, that alter be sat down.
he did not wake till past four o'clock in the morning. when the pri-
soner was brought doirti stairs by a lodger ; and if witness had then
known what the prisoner bad been guilty of, the consequences
would in all probability have beets fatal.
Mrs. White sworn—She is the wife of the last witness. About
the hour of lour o'clock on Thursday morning last, a person, whom
she supposed to be her husband, entered her bed-room. She spoke
to him, and said, " it is late, ?" he made some kind of
answer, like a person in liquor, and she supposing him to be intoxi-
cated, said nu snore to him; be proceeded to undress and got into
bed; he was in her bed-room above a quarter of an hour; he did
not speak during the tune, but it was at this period that the offenise
complained of took place. She believed at the time it was her
husband, but accidentally potting her hand on a flannel waistcoat,
which her husband was not In the habit of wearing, she instantly
started up, and exclaimed, " Good Goo! am I in bed with a strange
man?" Upon the prisoner net answering, she jumped out of bed
in a state of the most dreadful alarm, and called for the assistance
of a lodger. who entered the room and turned the prisoner down
stairs. She declared to -Goo that she did nut give the prisoner
leave to enter her bed-room; she bad never seen hint iu her life'
till she found him in her bed.—(Here the unhappy woman ap-
peared ready to faint ; and her husband, from whose eyes tears were
flowing, said, " We shall never be happy. Mary, any more; if I
had caught hint, I know what the consequences would have been.")
John Donralson said he was a lodger in the house of Mr. White.
About a quarter of an hour before four o'clock on Thursday morn-
ing, the prisoner entered his bed-room, which is on the same floor
as the bed-room of Mr. and Mrs. White, and asked hies which
was Mr. White's room ? • fie told him it was the room opposite.
About.to enty minutes past four o'clock the same morning; he
heard 'Ars. White call for assistance; be went into her hed-room
and she said there was a strange. man in her room. He sate the
prisoner dressing himself, and he turned kim out of the room, and'
saw him to the bottom of the stairs. Mrs. White did not at that
time say the person had been in bed with her, and bad committed
the offence he stands charged with.
Mr. Deita—At that time you did not teU your husband what
had taken place ?
Mrs. White—l did rot, Sir; I was in such a state of terror I
could not speak to him on the subject; and there were other
men presses;.

Mr. White—lf I had known at that time, I would hate .
Mr. Ds-ae—Say no more, Mr. Whitt ; I can easily conceive
that your ret4ings must be in a state of painful irritation. The
young woman is au object of your greatest sympathy, and the con-
duct of the person was wicked in the extreme; he practised a
most scandalous deception upon the woman, and deserves the
severest punishment.
Mr. White and the prisoner were about the same age and site,
and dressed alike in brown surtout coats, and striped waistcoats.
The prisoner, when called upon for his defence, said that it was
true, as Mr. White had stated, about their taking too much liquor,
and that Mr. White agreed to let him sit up by his fireside. Mr.
White also informed him that his wife was oat of town. They-
bah fell asleep, and he (prisoner) awoke about four o'clock, and
being tired, he tried t' grope his way to. Mr. White's bedroom,, to lie down for a fear hours. He by mistake entered the lodger's
roomy who told him which was Mr. White's room, and he laid
himself on the bed, supposing Mr. Whit. was in the bed. He was
very drunk, and did not know that anything further teak plane..
Mr. Dyes said, that the prisoner would find that be
_had, barn
guilty of a senate offence. . .
Mr. White said that his wife had been very ill ever since, aid as
there was,no chance of their being happy together, be had
up his mind to quit the country. •
• Mr. Drat stated that, as he was convinced of his wife's inno.'
cence, he thought that they might yet be happy.
Mrs. White wept, and her husband shook his head and sighed.
Mr. Dram told the prisoner that, if he possessed a spark of
human fefling, he would feel remorse at the misery be had brought
upon the young couple. He ordered hint to find bail, birnaclf in.
xpo; and two sureties in £5O each, to answer the charge of &sank
at the ilassions, and hearai orderesrto sire es hours' notice.
