It seems to be the general opinion, that since the
Cerlebs of HANNAH MORE, no fiction has appeared
that can be read with so much advantage by the no-
married classes, as the Novel just published, undo
the tide of "Precantit,;l," and we have therefore no
hesitation in recommeading it to uiliveisal attention.

Dun Cow Tavern, in the Kent Road, between a Gentienam
named WEST. a confidential clerk, in a large concern in the City,
and Mr. O'llsas, an Irish Gentleman, lately arrived in this

is this :—On Sunday evening, the patties met at the lodg-

the enjoyment of the bottle, the conversation happened to twa
on political subjects, amongst which the Emancipation Ms were

two privates of the Guards. It appeared that on Tuessiay nigh
a drummer of the Guards was going throvgh the Almonry.add
broke a coop containing some fowls, belonging to a youth named
Cannon. An altercation took place between rheas, which ors►
minated in a regular boxing match, in which the drummer was
beat, and he went to the " Marquis of Granby" public-homer
where some of the men belonging to his regiment were Mak-
ing, and stated the case to them. One of the soldiers, whop '
inebriated, inunediakly ran into the street, and he was followed
by the rest. Not Cannon, they repaired to a boo
where Clarke and White lodged, and demanded that C.aancia
should be sent out to then.. ..n immense crowd of the boot
orders collected together, with some more soldiers. The Irish-
men barricadoed the door, and threatened to knock down eeq'
man who entered. The soldiers, however, forced the door, and
drove away one of the Irishmen, who guarded it with a sword
in his band ; but he and another armed with a shovel,
_,laated
themselves on the stairs. One of the soldiers rushed fawn%
in order to seize the first man by the legs, and pull him down'
when on stoopinf for that purpose, he received a blow of the
sword on the back of his head, which felled him to the pound,
and wounded him most seriously. The man who was armed
with the shovel at the same instant struck another soldier. ad
cut off the greatest part of his chin. A general fight enstiedOldd
all the Irishmen in the neighbourhood, on hearing what bad oc.
curred, repaired to the assistance of their countrymen, and 611
soldiers mustered rill stronger. The' whole street was Is a
state of alarm, and the constables. were of no use, till informa-

to the scene of action, who, without using their arms, succeeded
in dispersing the mob, taking a few of the ringleaders into coo-

place was demolished, and the doors and shutters broken.—Tbe
