and Mr. Gauen, were ieturning to their re.idences at
Chel,ea, in Mr. FBA THERSTONIZ'S Ch mot, from a party
at Walham•green. They were all somewhat inebriated ;
and Mr. FEATHERSTONE and Mr. GEORGE got
and their friend, Mr. l.liaEN, rode on the box with the
coachman, named ALeorto. On the road, Mr. GREEN
insisted on driving, and swore that he would drive
over eves ything that came in his way. The coachman
reluctantly, and by force, gave up the reins, and Mr.
GREEN whipped the horses into a full gallop; Mr
FEArimsrobla, although intoxicated, put his head
out of the window, and calied on Mr. Gard, for
GOD'S sake to stop the horses, bet no heed was taken of
the entreaty,' and in almost a minute after, the wheel
came in contact with a post, and the chariot was over-
turned on the near side. Mr. Omuta and the coach-
man were thrown from the box a considerable distance;
and the latter was picked up in a lifeless state, and
carried to the Cross Keys Inn, on a shutter, where
m.-dical aid was instantly procured. Sever.ll persons
ran to the assistance of Mr. FEATHERSTONE, ant his
friend, Mr. GEWIGE, and on raising the body of the
chariot, Mr. FEArmeasroNa was found a corpse, with
!.is bead crushed to atoms, and Mr. GeonaF dreadfully
injured. ALFORD, tltp coAcbman, now lies without
hope of rtcovery, r.nd Mr.C;nttay is in custody. ,
CUNNING DEVICE —The following anecdote appears
in the Lamar, Gazette. where it is copied from Itrye Memoirs,
now In the Press ;—" Mr. !laymen told me bow, being with
some others at Butirdeauv, making 'a bargain with another man
~ a taverne for some claret's they did hire a fellow to thunder,
(which he had the art of doing upon a desk board) and to rain and
hail, that is, to make the noise of, so as did give them a pretence
of undervaluing their merchant,' wines, by saying this thunder
would spoil and turn them. Which was so reasonable to the mer-
chant, that he did abate two pistols: per tun for thy wine, in belief
of tb.st."

PROPERTY INSURED IN ENGLAND,— By an official vfew
of the relative business of the vari•nis offices fbr fire inr
surance in England, it appe as that there arc forty sill
Offices or Companies, and that the amount of duty they
have paid to Gdverrnect, f r insurances effected by
them, for the last year, amonhts to £659.577. The duty
being Ss. for every £lOO insured, it follows that the
total amount of property insured is, in round nunikersi
about £439,585,000. Suchsbeing the value of property
which the assured of nece4.!*.y make upon theirpreMi.er+
