EARTHQUAKE IN CHILI.

On the night of November 19, 1822, a so :cession of
shocks of eattliquake were felt thrtyughout the whole
extent of Chili, and also on the eastern side of the Andes,
in the direction of Buenos Ayres. Our authority (the
Edinburgh Journal) states, that there were seven wind-
pal shocks, and inferior ones at a few minutes interval,
through the whole night. At Valparaiso, Qui'nom, and
Casa Blanca, the undulations had continued for three
weeks, and produced almost incredible ravages among
the buildings, upwat ds of three hundred bodies having
been already dug out of the ruins, though the population
is by no means considerable. Toe sea retired from the
shore with great rapidity in the first instance; but its
return was more gradual, so that the whole line ef the
coast has either risen about two feet, or the water has
retired in equal depth, so as to leave rocks visible which
were never before seen with the lowest tides. The mo-
tion of the shocks was horn N.W. to S.E. and fissures
in the earth from a few inches to three feet in width,
were discovered throughout the whole district. At
Vina de la Mar small cones of sand were thrown up,
from two to six feet high, but no volcanic exhalation
or vapour was perceptible. It, however, did not suf-
fer so greatly as Quillota. The latter is reported to be a
complete mass of ruins:, whilst the former, though the
Fort, Government-house, and every church in the place
has been demolished, only part of the houses have been
destroyed. It is also remarkable that such as were
built on the alluvial soil suffered more than those built
on rocky foundations. The principal shocks were ob-
served to give an undulatbry or lateral motion to water
in a tumbler; while the fainter shocks seemed to give a
vertical or bubbling motion to the water. The average
duration of the shocks is supposed to have been about
thirty seconds. From the extreme violence and dura-
tion of these calamitous natural phenomena, we look
with fearful apprehension for more detailed accounts.

Nearly £20,000 have been expended in altering and
fitting up the new gambling-house in St. James's-street.
The principal drawing-room is one of the most superb,
and certainly the largest carpeted room in London. F6r
the present the entrée is confined to the members of four
or five of the principal club-houses, who enjoy the en-
viable distinction of being the first to be pigeoned.
Nine children were burnt alive in the course of the
last fortnight, in the southern district of Staffordshire.

AbIBROGETTI V. WATERS.

The COMMON-SERTEANT moved for a Role to shew
cause, why an Attorney of the Court should not be or-
dered to pay back a sum of money received from a fo-
reigner, Signor Ambrogetti (a dancer at the Opera
House) under the following circumstances :—Ambro-
getti advanced the money on being told it was neces-
.>ary, in order to proceed against Mr. Waters, with
whom he had a suit to outlawry. Upon inquiry, he
afterwards found that all the Attorney had done for his
money was filing an affidavit.—Rule granted.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, FEB. 4.
HOLMES 1). MERTON.

Mr. Serjeant Cuoss appeared to shew cause against
a Motion made by Mr. Serjeant Vaughan, why the de.
iPendant should not be discharged out of custody under
an order of the Insolvent Debtors Court. The Insol-
vent had been adjudged by the Court of Insolvent
Debtors to be imprisoned for a term of eighteen months,
fur having fraudulently made away with part of his
property ; that Court had acted under an Act of 1 Geo.'
IV. c. 119. sec. 117. The Learned Serjeant then stated
that he chewed cause for the administrator of the plain-
tiff, and who, if the Court should think it requisite, will
commence a fresh .suit against the defendant. A verdict
was given at the last Lent Assizes for the plaintiff, and
the argument made use of by Mr. Serjeant Vaughan,
for the defendant, was that the deceased bad omitted to
enter up judgment after the verdict had been given,
previous to his (the deceased's) death. Now he (Mr.
Serjeant Cross) contended, that by the rule of Court no
defendant was entitled to his discharge upon the neglect
of a plaintiff situated as the present one, to enter upjudg-
mcnt and issue out execution; the nature of this older
was, that the defendant was to continue in custody at
the suit of one or more creditors; but, should the Court
think it necessary, the administrator of tl‘e decea.e.l,
for whom he (Serjeant Cross) appeared, would imme-
diately charge the defendant upon a fresh suit.
Mr. Serjeant VAUGHAN contended at some length,
that the suit was alvated, inasmuch that the plaintiff had
not entered up judgment.
The COURT considered that there was no necessity
for judgment to be entered up, and that the rule of
Court alluded to by 11r. Setjeant Cross had been made
for the purpose of not putting the parties to the ex-
pense of it; and this order had perhaps been one cause
why judgment was not enteied up.—ltule discharged.

FAREWELL TO AIRDRIE.

FROM THE NEW MONTHLY MAGAZINE.

Alone, beneath the cloud of night,
A wretched, weary, wandering wight,
Spite of her tears 1 took my flight
From ber I love in Airdrie!
Though doom'd her fond suit to deny,
'Twas languag'd by the tell-tale eye,
How much my,heart wish'd to comply,
Nor leave my love in Airdrie!
Though mantled o'er with winter's snow,
And deem'd immersTin floods of woe,
I feel within Love's warmest glow
Whene'er I think on Airdrie!

°` Forget me not"• when Helen sings,
Or Margaret's sigh remembrance brings,
Or Mary wakes the trembling strings,
My heart—my sours in Airdrie!

BILIOUS AND LIVER COMPLAINTS.

AS a mild and effectual remedy for all those dis-
orders which originate in a vitiated action of the liver and
biliary organs, namely. Indigestion, Loss of Appetite, Head-ache,
Heartburn, Flatelencies, Spasms, Costiveness, affections of the
Liver, atc. &c. DIXON's ANTI BILIOUS PILLS have met
with more general approval than any other medicine whatsoever.
They unite every recommendation of mild operation with successful
effect, and require no restraint or confinement whatever during
their use. In tropical climates, where the consequences of redundant
and vitiated bile arc so prevalent and alarming, they are an inva-
luable and efficient protection. They are likewise peculiarly cal-
culated to correct disorders arising from excesses of the table, to
restore the tone of the stomach, and to remove most complaints
occasioned by irregularity of the bowels.

DOK Eft V. GOFF.

This was a suit instituted by Elizabeth Smith Doker,
for the possession of certain property, by virtue of a will
in her favour. The deceased, John Goff, wai formerly
an Officer of Union Hall, who some years since became
embarrassed in his affairs, and left England for Am-
sterdam, where he formed a connexion with Elizabeth
Smith Doker ; he cohabited with her for a very con-
siderable time, after which he cohabited with a Dutch
girl, and in November, 1822, he died. Mrs. Goff, his
widow, who had been left in 'England with a family of
six children, took out letters of administration, which
were very shortly afterwards recalled by Elizabeth

Smith Doker, on the production of a document pur-
porting to be the will of the deceased, bequeathing all
his worldly property to Elizabeth Smith Doker, except
ten pounds per annum, Bank Annuities, to his natural
daughter, Louisa Daniels, to whom he appointed Eli-
zabeth Smith Doker the guardian. This document was
dated the 30th of October 1821, and at the foot was
written the word " Witnesses," but there were no at-
testing witnesses attached to it.
Dr. LUSHINGTON, on behalf of Elizabeth Smith Doker,
prayed that probate might issue on the document pro-
duced by her, as it was clear, from all the evidence, that
it contained the intentions of the deceased as to the dis-
position of his property. With respect to the absence of
attesting witnesses, it was probable that he conceived it
an unnecessary formality.
Dr. JEN NER, for the widow, contended that the docu-
ment carried on the face of it such an informality, that
rendered it of no effect whatever ; he put it to the Court,
whether the deceased intended to deprive his wife and
family of all his little property on behalf of Mrs. Dokei?
Sir JOll N NICOL said, however immoral the motives
of the deceased were in framing his will in such a man-
ner, or however repugnant the Court might be in pro-
nouncing for it, yet, as the evidence supported the ac-
tual intentions of the deceased in favour of Mrs. Doker?
he was bound to admit it.—Probate was therefore
granted to Elizabeth Smith Doker.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH. FEBRUARY 4.
DIBDIN V. ELLISTON.

Mr. COOPER moved for a Rule, calling on Mr. Ellis-
ton to shew cause why he should not give to Mr. Tho-
mas Dibdin a copy of an engagement made with him
in the book of Drury-lane Theatre. Mr. ['Allston had
agreed to employ Mr. Dibdin, as Stage-manager, for a
term of years, which had been broken, and Mr. Dibdin
had brought an action to recover damages. The terms,
according to custom, were written in the book of the
Theatre, and Mr. Dibdin wished to inspect them, in or-
der to avoid a variance, but Mr. Elliston had refused
to allow him the inspection.—Rule granted.

GUILDHALL.

John =an was brought before the Sitting Magistrate, Mr. Al-
derman Schemer, on the charge of Mr. John Pym, linen-draper,
in Barbican. The prisoner came to the shop to purchase a yard
of cloth, and threw down in payment a new farthing, desiring Mr.
Pym to give him change. " Change!" replied Mr. Pym with
much surprise, taking it up, " this is only a farthing." The pri-
soner insisted that that was not what he had thrown down. What
be had given was a sovereign, and with many oaths charged him
with wanting to cheat him, and became so outrageous, that Mr.
Pym found it necessity to send for a constable; to him, however,
the prisoner still persisted that he had given Mr. Pym a sovereign,
and accounted for having had one in his possession, by saying he
had just received his pay as a watchman, from Mr. Heather, the
. . .
" ' '

paymaster of the watch; and offered to be searched, to shew that
be had not got one about him. After an ineffectual search, the
officer got a glance of something in his hand, and after a violent re-
sistance on the part of the prisoner, succeeded in getting his hand
open, and took from it a small purse, which was found to contain a
sovereign and two shillings. As it was thus pretty clear that the
prisoner's intentions were to trick Mr. l'yrn, the constable consi-
dered this an offence which warranted him to lodge him in the
Compter. This was the case against the prisoner, to which he
offered no other defence than that he had had a hurt in his head,
and not finding the sovereign in any of his pockets, thought he must
have given it to Mr. Pym.
On hearing the facts, the Alderman seemed somewhat at a loss
as to the precise nature of the offence, and was about to remand the
prisoner for the purpose of inquiring into his general character, when
Mr. BERESFORD, the Chief Clerk, suggested, that the offence
would come under the third clause of the Vagrant Act, which
enacts that " all persons imposing or endeavouring to impose upon
any Churchwarden or °veneer, or on a Charitable Institution, or
a private individual, by any false or fraudulent representation, ver-
bally or in writing, with a view to obtain money, or other advan-
tage or benefit, shall be deemed rogues and vagabonds."
As it was quite certain the fellow's object was to obtain money
or some other advantage or benefit to himself, the Alderman adopted
his legal adviser's interpretation of the statute, and committed the
prisoner to hard labour in the lloitse of Correction for one month.

following are extracts:

4, The arms of Greece are victorious on every side.
Wherever the enemy appears so sure is he beaten and
defeated. The naval victory of Samos has pranced
results which cannot fail to lead to important con. e•
quences; now that the Turkish fleet has been dispersed,
it is no longer in a state to occasion us any further
annoyance this year. As to the fleet of Mehemet Ali, •
which arrived at Rhodes in the early part of. August,

SPARRING.

The Fives' Court was ♦ery well attended yesterday, for Aby
Belases. Ned Turner made his appearance, and with the excepe
thus of his right arm in a sling, be sheaved but tittle of warfare.
He injured one of his right hand knuckles in the fifth round, but
not to spill his hitting. AU the blows he feels are about the side
-of the head. Peace Inglis did net shew, and of coarse be is not
well enough.
Lennox and Gadsee commenced business in a brisk bout, not re-
garding face-spoiling.
Jones the sailor wepped Young Josh, as he is called, to all parts
of the stage.
O'Neale, the Streatham► Youth, and Harry Holt, made the best
stew-off of the day. Strength served O'Neale much against quick
raps, and be improves in action as welkin strength. Under twenty
years-of an age, an Amateur thought the Championship was straight
before him.

Israel 13elasco sheared off fine science upon Saunders.
Gipsy Cooper did as he liked with Cavabagb. and floored him.
Aby DeLuca as Tom Oliver wound up the sports in a very
good set-to ; but Aby was too quick for his opponent, who trains oir.

A scuffle between Excise officers and smugglers
took place on Wednesday, near Aberfeldy, in which
one of the Excise party was so much hut t that be died
shortly after the affray.
Friday last, a fine partridge, flew into the billiard-
room at the Mitre-tavern, Maidstone. The unusual
visit is supposed to have been occasioned by the bird
having been pursued by a hawk. It is still alive mid well.
fifteen pounds have been sent ;to Hartlepool, and
eight guineas to Seaton Carew, towards rewarding the seamen
who went off with the life-boats from these places on the 11th of
October, to render assistance to vessels in dietreAs. These sums
were a part of the fund lodged in the Darlington Savings Bank,
arising from subscriptions entered into last summer, by the mem-
bers of the Darlington Insurance Association, and the Shipping In-
surance Clubs of Newcastle and Shields.

COURT OF CHANCERY-THIS DAY.

--.410.---
THZ IIZVILREND MR. FLETCHER.

The Court was this day more than usually thronged,
in consequence of its being understood that the above
case would have come on for argument. Among the
auditory we observed several of the Elders of Albino,
Chapel, a number of the hearers, and no small sprinkle
of Ladies.

Mr. SHADWRLL called his Lordship's attention to the
case as fellows ;--44 May it please your Lordship—ln
the case of the Attorney-General v. Alexander Fletcher,
your Lordship was pleased to order the motion to be
made this day. The Attorney-General, however, my
Lord, is not present; and as the duty of making the
motion necessarily devolves on him, perhaps your Lord-
ship will order the case to stand over?
The LORD CHANCELLOR—Mr. Hart is also in the
case. How is he this morning ?
Mr. FONILANC said, Mr. Hart was very unwell still,
bat there was considerable amendment.

Mr. SHADWELL—You see, my Lord, in the absence
of those Gentlanai, the necessity of letting the case
stand over.

The LORD CHANCBLLOR—CertainIy. To what day
will you have it?. Perhaps Thursday next will meet
your wishes?
The respective Counsel intimated their acquiescence.
and an order to that effect issued accordingly.—Muth
disappointment was manifested.

than three or four days when the news of the Meat off
Samos was communicated to the. Admiral, upon which
he bore away on his return to •Rhodes. The brave
Miaoulis sailed on tire 29th ultimo, with a division 4
sixty ships,reafed not td return before he has either deb
stroyed the enemy's hopes, or perished in the attempt. ,
” The Turkish forces which had advanced towards,
the plain of Athens from Negropont, have been repulsed
with great loss by General Goura. On retreating to the'
above-mentioned fortress, it was refused entrance by the
garrison and inhabitants, so that this corps is harassed
on every side, and in the utmost peril. With respect
to the army of Dervish Pacha, at GI avia, it is in a state
of the greatea confusion, and diminishing fast by deser-
tion. The troops who remain are in such a state of
insubordination that it is with difficulty the Pacha is able
to restrain them from proceeding to acts of open vio-
lence against himself.
" On the 24th ultimo, General Z tvilia, the Sauliot
Chief, ordered Colonel Lambro to attack a detach-
ment of the enemy in his entrenchments; owing, how-
ever, to a most unuAal circumstance, the Turks per-
ceived the intended nebvement, so that the Colonel was
obliged to change his plan of attack. Advancing to
within half an hour's march of Zeitouni, he observed
a tower in which there was. a great number of Turkish
officers of rank ; and not far trom it several tents filled
with soldiers. Having waited the approach of night,
Lambro rushed on the enemy, and after setting fire to
the tents, attacked them sword in hand, killed thirty of
the officers, and numbers of the soldiers. A stand of
colours and a large quantity of booty, consisting of
ba,rvage and horses, were the other trophies of this
gallant affair.
• The formation of regular troops at Napoli di Ro-
mania, advances rapidly, under the direction of M.
Roditts, the Secretary-General ad interim ; while, with
the splendour of their arms, novelty.of the evolutions,
and military music, our youth seem highly delighted
with the new organization, and recruits flock to the
standard daily. The corps of artillery at this place,
commanded by Major Stizelbergen, is still kept up, and
in excellent order. A detachment, with two pieces of
light field artillery, has been sent to Lechini, to strengthen
that important point."

A RL BOROUGH-STREET.

Yesterday, Sir John Copley, the Attorney-General, came to this
office, and applied to Sir GEOROR FARRANT, the Magistrate, for
the a,,istarce of an racer in tracing out the perpetration of a rob-
bei'y that hld been committed in his house; in George-street,
11. mover-square.
The Magi,trate directed Plank, the chief officer, to attend to the
Right lion. Gentleman's statement of the particulars, and take the
heceis:iry measures accordingly.
Sir J..hn Copley b4id, that some time ago a quantity of plate,
consisting of spoons, folks, ecc. had been stolen from a press or
cupboard, which had always been kept locked, and the key of
which hung in a particular spot, known only to certain persons;
and as no violence had been committed in opening the press, it was
ckar it had been opened by the use of the key. Being, however,
quite at a loss upon whom to rest suspicion, as his servants were
all of the best ch.:racier, he let die matter drop, and took no trouble
to investigate the circumstance ; but the plate was removed to
another place which was also kept locked, and the key also de-
posited in a different spot from where the former used to be laid.
Now again, however, without any violence upon the place where
the plate was kept, a considerable part more had been carried off;
and, as he still could have no suspicion of any particular individual,
be was anxious to hava the matter investigated. The loss of plate
in the whole was of the value of about 501.
Plank immediately gave the necessary instructions to Westcott,
an active officer, to proceed to the Hun. Gentleman's house.

LA 11 BETH-STREET.
Henry lensley and Gee ge Fenn were charged with being con-
cerned in a robbery which has been carried on for a considerable
time on the property of Messrs. Severn, King, and Co. the sugar
refiners, in the Commercial-road.
IlenrOVidding stated, that he was in the employ of Messrs.
Severn, King, and Co. and on the £2d of September last, one of
his employers' waggons, driven by a man named Fowler, arrived
on the premises from the West India Docks, containing five hogs-
heads of raw sugar. Witness assisted in unloading them, in the
course of which his attention was attracted to the drawing hole of
one of the casks, which had evidently been disturbed. Witness
procured the Dock ticket, which stated the weight of the several
hogsheads, and on weighing the one in question, he discovered that
it was 138 lbs. short of weight. Witness immediately mentioned
the circumstame to Mr. Severn, jun. who had the hogshead
weighed in his presence.
The Magistrates called on the prisoners for their defence, but
they declined saying at ything, and were both fully committed to
Newgate for trial, and the parties bound over to pro.erute.
