ZARTHOLOSIRW FAIR.

After some discussion as to the propriety of re-
moving the shows and other exhibitions from this fair,
it was finally determined, on the motion of Mr. Al-
derman WArruman, that Bartholomew fair should be
continued as usual, and that the City Land Committee
be empowered to let the ground in Smithfield as they
did last year.—The Court then broke up.

, -
Though the parish of Stoke Newington contains up.
wards of 40,000. inhabitants, there is said to be among
them not more than thirty freeholders.

Mn. Pm.t.stan.—The return of this Gentleman to
his residence near Kingston, yesterday, was marked by
one of the stronge.t exhibitions of popular feeling
which, perhaps, ever appeased in this or any other
country. At about a mile from the town, the horses
were taken from the barouChe in which he was seated,
and he was conveyed into the town amidst the joyous
hums of an immense multitude. Ile was preceded by
the children of the Public School, the Corporation of
the Town, and the Committee who conducted his Elec-
tion. On arriving at the . Son Inn, he addressed the'
auemblage, and thanked them for their kind attention.'
The friends of Mr. Damson (not Less warm than
those of Mr. PALMER), in the glorious termination of
the election, dined together, to celebrate that Gentle-1
man's return, at the Crown and Angel Inns, on Mon-1
day. Mr. DENISON presided at the Crown, and was'
Suppoacti by a respectable class of country Gentlemen.
He made a most brilliant speech in elucidation of his
principles. which was received with enthusiasm. At
the second dinner, cdebrated at the Angel Inn, which
was numerously attended, Mr. ROWLAND presided ;
and, in proposing the health of Mr. DENINON. he con-
gratulated the numerous and respectable Freeholders
on the glorious triumph they had that day achieved,
and trusted they never would desert the Gentleman
who would never desert them, or die interests of the
county at large. The health of Mr. DSNISON was
drank with enthusiasm, who came in person to return
thanks, and was visibly affected by the kind attentions
of his friends.

has been made in a hill on the road between High Wickham and
Oxford is the following notice, thus csrshilly pointed You,

EQISDURGH; Novsuseß 6.

Moadayom a complaint at the instance of General
Gordon Clueing Skene, with concurrence of the Fiscal
of Peace, against Gee. Williamson, for killing game on
his property, without.qualification or leave.; the Justices
in consideration of Williau'son's confession, decerned
against him for the modified penalty of two guineas,
and the expense of the complaint. The complaint was
laid both on the Act 1621, and IS Geo. 111. besides
charging trespass. It is a mistaken idea to suppose
that the being possessed of a game certificate affords
protection to a person shooting. He must also have
nbtained leave from the proprietor of the lands over
which he shoots, otherwise he is liable to an action.
At a Justice of Peace Court, held at Huntly, upon
the 16th ult. Cockburn, residing at Largue, in Ca-
brach, was convicted in the statutory penalty of 1001.
Scots, for hunting and shooting at deer, in the Duke of
Gordon's forest of Glenfiddich ; and upon the 28th ult.
James Nl,Combie, at Ardwell, in the same parish, was
convicted in a similar penalty, for the like offence.
On the 25th instant, the body of a young man, who
had evidently been a sailor, was found lying within
water-mark, near the shooting-lion-se in Kincraig Links.
The young man ha/ on a blue flannel shirt, marked
with the letters T. R. a black silk h indkerchitf, blue
vest, and canvass trousers. The corpse was carefully
removed to Kilconquhar, and interred in the Church-
yard there.
A shipmaster brought his bark into Stonefiaven har-
bour the other week, and, after he had moored her,
went into a house on the Quay, where he wrote a letter
w a Gen►leman in Aberdeen, to whom his cargo was
consigned. He asked one of the pilots to deliver the
letter, and did not, till that moment, discover that he
was in the 6, wrong port." Being high water, how-
ever, he lost no time in again putting to sea, having
afforded a hearty laugh to those who were aware of
his mistake.

'Saturday se'nnight, a travelling vender of stone-
ware, ssho had previously been drinking, undertook,
for a trifling bet, to finish his potations by emptying a
bottle of whisky ; and had swallowed three-fourths of
it, %Olen he fell down insensible. Every attention was
paid to this unhappy victim of intoxication, but in vain.
He lingered for nearly six days, and thenvapired.

DUBLIN COMMISSION, Nov. 4.

John Abrray was put to the bar, indicted for the
wilful murder of Elizabeth Murray, his wife, at Daw-
son's Grove, on the 10th 411ly last.
Anne Doyle, niece to the deceased, deposed to having
seen her aunt at five o'clock on the evening of the day
mentioned in the indictment ; she appeared then to be
in good health, but somewhat intoxicated. At eight
o'clock on the same evening she saw her a corpse in Mr.
Dawson's gate house, in which deceased and her hug-
band resided; the corpse had a large wound on the
head and another on the arm, and appeared all over
marked as if by blows of a stick. The house was empty
when witness first entered it. After the prisoner at t► d
bar came in, witness asked him did he kill hei aunt ? he
said he did, and would kill her also, and instantly made
a blow at her with his clenched fist ; witness, however,
escaped from the house. Prisoner on this occasion
appeared in a dreadful passion, was much agitated,
but in liquor.
For the defence, several witnesses were called to
character, with most of whom prisoner-had lived at
service. They invariably bore testimony to his -indus-
trious habits as a servant, but generally agreed that
there was something flighty and odd in his general de-
manoor. One witness designated him “ a half natural."

Here the ease closed, and the Jury returned a ve►dict acquittiag
the prisoner of the murder, and ending him—Guilty of Mauslaughter.

An Inquest was held at the Westminster Hospital, on
the body of Henry Howting, who was killed at his
Majesty's new Palace. Thomas Johnson stated, that on
Wednesday he passed the deceased on a temporary
staircase; he saw him make a false step, and fall between
the iron joints, a depth of 18 feet, upon a timber AGM
Ile was quite sober. Tne surgeon stated, tfaat on ex-
amining the body, he found a kidney ruptured, which
caused an effusion of blood into the cavity of the ab-
domen, and was the cause of his death. Verdict—
Accidental Death."

GRIMSBY, RIVER-HUMBER, Nov. 7.

A lamentable accident has just occurred here, where.
by one man has been killed ; one of whom has bern
brought on board the United Kingdom steam ship,
drowned; and there are two or three others missing,
who, it is to be feared, have shared the same fate. The
accident was this: The United Kingdom came into this
harbour, having been driven in by the badness of the
weather, and most of the passengers of the abovenamed
vessel were embarked on board the steam boat Graham,
going up to Hull, which the passengers preferred to
remaining until a change of wind and weather. T: ere
are, besides what is mentioned, about twenty severely
scalded, by the bursting of the boiler in the Graham ;
and two have had their skulls fractured. 'Dime were on
board the United Kingdom, very providentially, two or
three Medical Gentlemen, who rendered every assistance
in their power, particularly a Dr. HUTCHISON, who ex-
erted himself exceedingly. Not any of the passengers
of the United Kingdom have lost life, or been in any
way materially injured.

DRURY-LANE.

After the popular opera of Malvina a new farce was
last night produced, under the title of "John Brown,"
the plot of which is as follows :
Mr. John Breen is the nominee of an annuity granted by Mr.
pm"( (WlLLimum), a speculator In " airy nothing.," and assigned
to Mrs. Foresight (Mrs. Mumma). who, ant finding payment over
punctual, advertises to ascertain if Mr. ./..4n Brown Is living.
which adverthensent brings up John Brown (liaet.av). a white-
washing and whitewashed p)asterer, in the Battering idea of
hearing " something to his advantage," who is met by Mrs Ars-
sigAt, and very graciously invited to follow her to breakfast ; but
he eaters by mistake the house of Old ?Niece, (who, by the bye, is
next door neighbour to Mrs. Foresight), and is kindly recommended
by him to the overseership of his powder-mill, but by its explo-
sion is unexpectedly retuned to his original intricacies. The true
Mr. Iltrown (W *states), is very partial to Shakspeme, and 42,
tremely averse to two Gentlemen with fiery fsces (fiery facias),
and among other engagements has contracted one with Miss Fenny
(Mrs. Yacxs), the daughter of OM Prejics, a Lady of extreme
susceptibility, and with a fonatie dependent upon her father's con-
sent in writing to her marriage, which is obtained by Mr. Irma,
(hat. in the disguise of one Mr. Biddle, a Projector of Joint Steck
Companies.
This plot, though boasting little of novelty, possesses
a sufficient degree of bustle to afford tolerable scope for
the drolleries of /TAIL , who sppports the scene with
great effect. There is however a redundancy of puns
and Allusions, some of which might be omitted with
Advantage to the piece.
