Count MUNSTER had an audience of the PRINCE
ith.GENT, yesterday, at Carlton Houce.
The Earl aod Countess of LoNsnALE, Lord Li W-
TilElt, and Sir GILBERT HEATIICOTE, were to leave
Paris in the couts... 01 this wLek for London.

Mr. BrcKETT. Under Secretary ot State and his
Lady, have left Switzerland on a tour through Italy.
A Florence Paper, of the of July, contains an
article dated Rome, July 16, in which it stated, that
her Royal Highness the Princess of WALFS had just
given a magnificent Fete, equally remarkable for the
bti!liancy ot the illuminations, the sumptuousness of
the tefresliments, and the charms of the best selected
music, vocal and instrumental. Many of the must
distinguished of t!...e Roman and Foreign Nobles were
present.

From the Ist of May last to the 30th of June,
1030 English families embarked at Brighton for
France ; and k is not from that port alone that the
Engl.sh set sal.
Mr. Moottn, our English Anacreon, and Sir Joon
Srrv►.xsoN, equally celebrated for his musical com-
position, are both new at Paris.

Mr. It A MON n is now actively employed in making
arrangements for the opening 4/1 Drury-lane Theatre,
the ensuing month, with much riuselty both of Pieces
.and Performers.

ENGLISH 01'1.11A. —Midas was repeated at this
Theatre last night. CHATTERLEY, a very amusing
general Comedian, was Mau, and so far as diligent
burlesque could succeed. he WAS successful. Miss
KLLILVS Nyta, a pin too trivial for this intelligent
actress's powers, was, of course, in the best style of
shrewish coquetry. Daphne, the stricken damsel,
was personated by Miss STEVENSIN with great natu-
ral feeling, and with a voice which seems to want
only strength and practice to impart to its sweetness
no common degree of fascination. PEAR lAN'S dpoi/
was the divinity of a singer, and his songs were un-
doubtedly given with much skill. The celebrated
Pray Geod.!, was encored, and deserved the distinction.
The audience was both numerous and fashionable.

VAUXIIALL Gatti:mos.—This dazzling place is far
more entitled to be called Les Champ Awes. than
the celebrated spot so named in the vicinity of
Paris. On Wednesday evening the Gardens were
illuminated with their wonted lustre; and the nume-
rous elegant and distinguished visitors, who were
attracted by the fineness of the evening, added the
most delightful grace and splendour to the scene.—
Madame Snoia's performance and grand ascent were
particularly applauded, and the whole of the En-
tertainments excited the most unqualified pleasure.
The oat harvest has commenced in Kent, with
every promise of a most abundant crop. Sonic
samples were shewn at Canterbury market on Satur-
day last, which produced two pounds per quarter.
All the plans are ready for the improvements at
St. James's Palace ; and they will be carried into
execution forthwith.

Thursday se'nnight, about 50 feet of the battle-
ment and two arches of o'l3fien's bridge on the
Shannon, fell in—fortunately no lives were lost.
The symptoms of an unusual fever contagion in
Tralee have almost disappeared.
By letters received from Martinique, we learn that
the Yellow Fever rages there, which, it is feared, has
been communicated to some of our Island.. A ship
from Jamaica, in the River. was immediately put
under quarantine.
A malignant Fever rages in Enniskillen Gaol ;
seventeen persons confined there have died within a
short time. There are but few in the town who
have caught the contagion ; but it is said that seve-
ral person's, who have gone to see their friends in the
gaol, and who came from the country for that
purpose, have carried the fever to their homes and
families. •

fields, Edgeware.road. Two of them were particu-
larly active, and on searching their hats they found
upwards of a dozen handkerchiefs. They took them
into custody; but as they were bringing them along
the Edgeware-road, they were attacked by the whole
gang with sticks, and the prisoners were rescued.
One of the Officers received a wound on the back
part of the head from some sharp instrument. They
succeeded, however, in apprehending two of the gang,
who have since been committed under the Police Act.
A gang of desperate villains, mounted and armed,
nightly plunder houses, gardens, and fields, in the
vicinity of Bristol. It is not long since they burnt
the corn-nets, barns, lc:. of Mr. Annorr. Thursday
night they inhumanely houghed and mangled a cow
and a horse belonging to a constable of Bitton parish;
and on Friday night, about eleven o'clock, he was
alarmed by his clog, when he saw the villains from
the windows, and fired on them, which they imme-
diately returned, and broke the windows.
An old man, named James. Cale, we's last week ap-
prehended at Bristol, with a bag of stolen lead, which
he said he had obtained from a boy in the street.
He was asked if he could find the boy ? when he went
out and returned with a lad named Charles Stocker,
about 13 years of age, well known to the police by
the nickname of &in:Tarte, and who had been some
time ago confined in Newgate. The old man then
said he could give information of the whole gang,
adding, is And, your Worship, 1 can tell yen,
that your premises were broken open too.—The
Mayor And • perhaps you were present ?"-
" Yes, your Worship." The Mayoi—is Ard how
did the beef eat Very good." The informa-
tion given by this old !man has led to the discovery of
gang of upwards of 3.1 boys, who have for some time
.übsisted entirely by thieving, and whose general ren-
dezvous was at the Glass-house, Limekiln-lane. They
begged by day, and plundered by night; and it is a
fact, that in one wank they stripped nearly all the
ardets in Belk-rut of their provisions.

THUNDER STonms.—Tuesday sennight, about two
o'clock, while Mr. D. SMITH, farmer at Denside. in
the pans!' of Montkie, was sitting in his patlour at
dinner, along with Mts. Stu ill, he suddenly heard an
explosion and a shriek from the kitchen, in whi:a
were Miss Salem, two servant girls, and a servant
man. On hurrying to the kitchen, he found it fi'led
with smoke, which soon cleared away, and discl.med
his daughter and three servants in a :.tote of stupor,
several pieces of the pavement of the riaor turn up
and shattered ; that en which st,,otl the chair vsherst
two of the servants were sitting, together wish the
chair, shivered to atoms, .tll the panes dashed out ut
the kitchen window, and the cielteg pet rotated to the
extent of six feet by three. Two large holes were also
made in the inner wall of the chimney, and the chim-
ney-stalk was rent in pieces. Tnis was all occasioned
by the stroke of lightning ; and what la most remark-
:dale, is, that three rustics (two of allow were sitting
on one chair), though struck to the groond, escaped
with very little injury from th t trerne:.doub power by .
which the solid earth under them was tent, mid:heir
