Monday last, a buck was turned out at Mattishall, in Norfolk,
before Air. Dewiao's hat riers: he went off in gallant style, aril
was taken, after a ran of 20 miles, in a cepse near Godwick I lull.
Friday, Mr. illnysett's hounds had a very excellent run;
they met at Caton, and many of the Anson hunt being pro-
sent, made a very large fluid of sportsmen: 'they found in a
fallow field, and a gallant fellow he proved : he Was killed afteit
an hour and three minutes severe rumiing, in a waggon hovel,
at Croxall. It is supposed to he the same fox which alluded
Lord ANiON so good a day from lilford, early in the seaf6l.
A few days since, some persons on the West side of Stanley
Burn, were pursuing a fox, which took refuge in a hole vn the
side of a high bank, and was followed by a dog and some of the
hunters ; When G. STOVART, 23 years of age, who resided near
Prudhoe, had got about twelve yards in, and several others
were in close succession, a large quantity of loose sand fell upon
&ORA RT, and instantly smothered him. The person next him,
though in imminent danger himself, endeavoured to pull hint
out, but could not, on account of the Weight of sand ; and not.
withstanding the utmost exertions were used, the corpse was
not recovered until the next morn4t.
Wednesday, at eleven o'clock, a hick was turned out at Sturdy's
Castle, in Oxfordshire, before the famous pack of barriers be-
longing to MARK and JAMES Moaart.t., Esqrs. In consespenee
pf not giving the buck sufficient time, he was taken unhurt
about three miles from the above place, after a severe run of
thirty minutes without a !heck. The sportsmen returned to
Sturdy's Castle, when a very fine buck, presented by the Duke
of Alamanntoucit to the owners of the harriers, was started fro
thence. Ile took bis course towards Wootton; being headtil,
he turned to the right for Taakley Wood, pursuing his course
towards Gibraltar; but being again headed, he turned to the
left through Lady Gs RDINCIet iaclosures and the parish of Tack.
ley,. over the fields to the right, crossing the Canal up to .Kirt-
lington Park, the seat if Sir Hesse Dasuvroon. Here three.
fourths of the horsemen were thrown out. Hence the busk
proceeded towards Northbrook, in a line for Calcot ; but being
headed, he turned to the right and leaped over the wall into
Lord JIMMY'S park at Middleton, where he was viewed through
the plantations and across the park.. He again leaped over the
; wall on the opposite side, made away towards Bucknell, and waS
taken unhurt, after a run of two hours and a half, about three
miles beyond Bicester. A finer chace was never witnessed. Or
150 horsemen that started, not more titan 13 or 14 were in at
the taking of the deer. Many Gentlemen of the first fox-hunts
big celebrity were on the field.

PEDESTRIANiS3I4
Wednesday, two persons, named Bryn&ley and Roberts, otio
of the age of 65, the other of 63, undertook for a angel- to rah
from Charing to Lenham; when Brenchley having reached th 4 •
stone which divides the Parishes of Wichling and Chasing, ftil
with his head in one Parish and his legs in the wiser; and Ro•
bens in consequence won the wager.

Lord hlotatieux unfortunately broke one of hit
legs a few days ago, in consequence of his horse fall,
ing in returning from the Melton Hunt. His Lord-
ship, however, is doing well.—Mr. OSBALDESTONH
had a severe fall on Monday ; his horse made a blurt,
der as he was galloping over a field thickly beset
with hillocks. He was insensible for nearly ten mi-
nutes, when he recovered he insisted upon following
the pleasu►es cf the chace, saying lie would be bled
when he got home.
Letters, dated the ISth of October, have been re-
ceived from Canton, announcing the death of the Ems
peror of CHINA, and that the event had been suc-
ceeded by a contest between two of his sons for the
Imperial Diadem. Several of the provinces are said
to have been in a state of revolt, in consequence of

the dispute for the succession. To add to the distrae-
don of the Chinese Empire from these causes, we
learn that the cholera morbus, that fatal epidemic, had
found its way thither from Bengal, and was prof.
ducing the most fatal ravages, the inhabitants dying
by thousands. With every precaution, its effects had
been severely felt even among the crews of the Brim
tish ships at Canton.
Advices have, since our last, arrived from Madrid
to the Bth instant, containing the answer of the
Cortes to tire KINGS Speech. In the Sitting of the
Cortes of the 4th, a great debate arose on the absence
of the Ministers, which deprived the Cortes of all
means of knowing the state of the nation ; and parti'
cularly the nature of the outrages committed towards
his MAJasrY, which were alluded to in his Speech.
Some Members declared, that the dismissal of the
Ministers was the work of his MAJESTY'S evil Coe&
senors. The nomination of the new Ministry was not
known till the midnight of the 4th. The Universal
of the sth says, that the choice made by his NI AJVITY
will completely satisfy the desires of all friends of
liberty, and will calm the uneasiness excited by the
sudden dismissal of the late Ministry. MORALES, the
Insurgent Chief, who some time since fled to Portu-
gal, has been delivered up to the Spaniards, by the
Portaguese„Authorities at Almeida.
The GENOA, 74, stationed in the Medway, took
fire on Monday, but it was speedily extinguished,
The accident was occasioned by a pitch-kettle boil-
ing over.
