GMAT STORTING PUGIIIDTIC PQZ 011 HURDLED
Gunta•s •SIDE, RETWILIN HICKMAN, TUX G•s-t.IGIIr MAN, •aD
Gamma Coma,—Over a sporting dinner, at the Castle Tavern,
Holborn, on Tuesday evening last, this match Was made by Tom
Belcher, on the part cf Cooper (who now resides in Edinburgh)
to take place on the 20th December, within 25 miles of London.
To be a fair stand up fight in a 24-feet ring, and the money to
be placed in the hands of Ma. Jackson. The Gas-light man was
present, •and betting commenced very briskly in his favour.—
From the tremendous style with which Hickman defeated
Cooper a few months since, 40 to 40 was offered without the
least hesitation; and if it had been required, he could have bees
batked for £5OO. It is expected to be 2to I before the fight
commences. Cooper will soon be in town it is said. The Fancy
are all alive upon this match, and it bids fair to prove one ef the
most sporting battles that have occurred for some years. Hick-
man is confident in the extreme as to the result, and Cooper is
also very anxious to recover his lost laurel. The latter was
defeated in the last contest in fifteen minutes, but it was then
urged that Cooper was taken by surprise. In this new match
hi intends to keep a better leek out. " That's to be Seen yet,"
says the Gas-man !
M•arix MID D•T. Hunsox.—This contest, which takes place
on Tuesday next, for 50 guineas aside, it is said, will prove a
most determined one. Martin, the amateurs assert, ought to
win it, from his superior weight, height, and length ; yet Hud-
son is the most fancied, being the better fighter. The odds are
only guineas to pounds, and Hudson for choice.

Tuesday se'nnight, two brothers, named Wardle,
were killed at Felling Colliery, in consequence of a
boiler bursting.
The .Magistrates of Glasgow have presented an
Address to his MAJESTY, requesting that he would
graciously be pleased to sit for his Portrait, to be
placed in the Town Hall of that City, along with the
Portraits of his Royal predecessors.
GUILDHALL.+-OMISSION or THE QUEEN'S NAME
IN THE LITURGY.— Mr. DIXON, baker, in Fleet-street,
one of the people termed Quakers, appeared yester-
day before Mr. Alderman WOOD and Mr. Alderman
ANSLEY (the presence of two Magistrates being re-
quired by the Statute), to shew cause why a warrant
of distress should not be issued against him, to reco-
ver payment of £4 12s. 3d. due from him for Tithes.
Mr. Hicken, the Vestry Clerk of the Parish of St.
Dunstan, said, that he understood Mr. Dixon al-
lowed the amount, and the right of claim generally,
but refused payment in this instance for certain objec-
tions, which would be stated to the Magistrates.
Mr. Dixon said, he certainly thought this mode Of
supporting the Ministers of Religion at least a very
inconvenient one. Religion was a matter solely be-
tween GOD and a man's own heart, and, as a princi-
ple, he objected to an established Religion. The law
had, however, established a particular form of reli-
gionin this country, and he was of course bound to
obey the law ; and although he could not, agreeably
to his profession, conscientiously obey the law ac-
tively, he should have passively obeyed it in this in-
stance, but for another objection, which appeared
to him, under the circumstances he should state, to,
annul the right of claim now made upon him. The
reason he resisted this claim was, that the Vicar of
the Parish refused to pray for the. Queen, 'according,
to the form of prayer set forth by Act of Parliament
by the Statute of the sth and 6th of Edward VI. fol-'1
lowed by that of Ist Elizabeth : it was distinctly
stated, .‘ that if any manner of Parson, Vicar, or,l
other Minister whatsoever, shall refuse to use the
said Common Prayers in such order and form as they
be mentioned and set forth in the said book, and
shall be thereof lawfully convicted, by verdict of
to dive men, or by his own confession, or by the no-
torious evidence of the fact, he shall lose and forfeit
for his first offence the profits of all ids spiritual bene-
fices arising in one whole year, and suffer imprison-
ment far six months." The fact was notorious, that
the Vicar had refused to read the Prayers for the
Queen, as set forth in the Common Prayer, and
having, as be (Mr. Dixon) conceived, thereby for:.
feited the profits of his benefice, be submitted he was
not in a situation to sue for these tithes.
Mr. Alderman WOOD said, there was a differ-
ence of opinion among the Lawyers, as to the lega-
lity of the omission of the Queen's name in the Li-
turgy, which was by some held to be illegal ; but he
conceived that there must be a process in the name of
the King against a Minister offending under the Sta-
tute now quoted, before it could be the means of
letting Mi. Dixon off from the payment of tithes.
Mr. Dixon replied, the letting himself off was not
his only object ; he was desirous of marking the ille-
gal conduct of the Clergyman.
Mr. Alderman ANSLEY thought the charge did
not apply, inasmuch as it appeared that the Vicar
had used the form of prayer as altered by the order,
of the Privy Council,
Mr. Hicken believed, if permitted, he could give
a conclusive answer to Mr. Dixon's objection.: he
then shortly stated the history of the Tithes in St.
Dunstan's Parish, which were now, by Statute, vested
in the lay impropriatorsl it was not for the spiritual
~or vicarial tithes that Mr. Dixon vas now sum-

Makstou-H005e,,,-Rortaen; OF THE Doveae
Coaen.—This case., which. has excited considerable
interest, came on last. Wednesday before the Lona
MAYOR. It will be retollected, that a reward of
£lOO had been offered for the apprehension of cer-
tain persons charged with stealing -from the Dover-
coach, a few days back, some gold in bars, to the
amount of about 500 ounces. It appears that some
persons of suspicious character have; since the rob-
bery; carried large quantities of gold to. Mr. Alder-
man Cox, and other refiners. The worthy Alderman
has been exceedingly active ,inendeavouringto de-
tect the offenders ; and on Wednesday morning W.
Pearson and Henry Hart Seymour were brought to
the Manion-House, charged . with the robbery.
They were put to the bar separately. .The evidence
-against Pearson, who was the first prisoner, com-
menced by Mr. M. J. Hertz, of St. Helen's-place, a
partner in the house of -B. A. Goldschmidt, who
stated, that the firm had notice of receiviiix two par-
cels of gold in bars from France, and that they would
proceed from Dover by the. Dover heavy coach.
The parcels not arriving, application was made at
the coach-office, and suspicion was entertained of
their having been, stolen. The proprietors of the
coach, therefore, took the necessary steps to detect
it. The property stolen was about .500 ounces, and
was worth nearly £2,ooo.—William Horn, proprietor
of the Golden Cross, Charing-cross, stated, that in
consequence of the loss of these bars of gold,.he went
to the Police Office, Bow-street, and appointednun-
ton, the officer, to proceed to Dover; from the infor-
mation they had received, they were induced to ar-
rest the prisoners. It appeared that they had 'come
by the Dover coach which brought the gold, left it
at Gravesend, and proceeded• from thence up the
River against the tide, and landed on the other side
of the water. The same persons had been frequently
known to go to Dover, and on to Calais, but on this
occasion they merely proceeded as far as Dover, and
returned by the heavy coach.—T. Cooper,. the book-
keeper at the Elephant and Castle, provekthat the
prisoner booked himself to Ospringe on the Friday
preceding the robbery. . He ,was accompanied by
another person, whom he should be able to identify ;
he received 13s. for the fare; he is certain that the
prisoner at the bar was ahe man; two other persons
took their places for the same place; they did not
come with the prisoner„.but were afterwards in the
parlour conversing yery familiarly together ; there
was nothing in their ,conduct which induced him to
think they were 'very great 'friends.—T. Simmons,
guard of the Dover coach, proved that the, parcels
were put into the fore boot of the coach. lie identi-
fied-the prisoner at the bar, and stated, that on the
day alluded to, he was on the outside of the coach,
at the back of it ; there was no alteration in the ar-
ticles in the boot other than a few additional ones'
put in. The prisoner came as far as Gravesend, and
immediately left the coach ; the only luggage he
had was a pair Of small saddle-bags, and the only .
person he left on the road was a. Lady,.at Rochester,.
nobody else left the coach. The prisoner left •the
coach, accompanied by another person; there 'was
another person on the.coach, who came to the Brick-
layers Arms, but he was only booked at Canterbury
the whole of the•places were booked in the name of
Brown. The next place they stopped at was Chat-
ham, but merely to change horsei;. the &it'd= he
ascertained the gold was missing, warm his arrival-
in London. Thomas -Atherden proved that he drove
the Dover coach from Canterbury to London,and-that
the boot was strapped nearly in' the same:manner.
when they arrived at the Golden Cross, as it was when
they left Canterbury. He could notspeak positively
to the prisoner. Mr. Hertz described the isackageto
be very-small, and to occujiy.z very confined space.
William Cox, labourer to Alderman Cox, a refiner,
identified the priioner,-sind atated,Ahat hebrought a

melted; it was then in small quantities; the appear-
ance of it struck him as havifig been melted, but it
was not done in a workmanlike-manner. .He stopped
while it was doing, • and read- the Newspaper. It is
usual for his employers to melt gold in this way, He
gave his name as Brown, and signed a paper (here
,produced); this was done because he (the witness) is
obliged to sign the assay, and to state the price. td be'
charged for it. When he got the gold he' took it into
ithe counting-house. He will swear the prisoner is
the man. '-Harrison, the Officer, stated, that. be
seirched the prisoner, and found in his drawers a
card of Mr. Merle's (here produced), for the receipt-
of another quantity of gold, which the prisoner at the
bar had taken to Mr. Merle in the same way as-he
had that to Mr. Cox.—W. Merle then stated, that a
quantity of gold was left at separate times at his
shop, partly in the name of Robbins, and partly in
that ef Hart. The card produced was given to Mr.
Robbins as a check for the gold. The gold was left-
in the usual way, and the card was given as an
thority for him to claim it. The gold left in the'
name of Hart was called for by him, and he was
taken into custody.—The Loam blavoe asked the
prisoner if he had anything to say in hi; defence,-or
how be became possessed of the gold ? 'He declined
saying. anything, as Mr. Harmer, his golicitor, was
not present. He declared that the gold was his pro-
perty, and he should-be able to prove it so, if his
Lordship would rant him a little further time to
prepare himself. fbe charge:was totally unfounded;
he was in the habitof attending sales, .and buying cf.
old gold, and this was the .produce of-some of those
putchases. Mr. Alderman Cox knew him very well.
Alderman Yes, .yes inoW you well
enough !" The prisoner proceeded by oliserring,
that, finding gold did not get up in fricerlae -was in-
duced to sell this, whiih he had been falsely charged
with stealing.—The Lorin Pdavoa, alter consulting
with Mr. Hobler, thoughtit.prodent to remand th`e
prisoner for further-examination -until this day week,
and ordered that-he be visited by his Solicitor only.
Henry Hart Seymour was thee called to the bar.
Mr. Alderman Co; stated, thatthis man had brought
some gold to his house, in-the same manner as Pc`ar-
son had done. Cooper, the boa. keeper ; Simmons,
