THE BOAR OF THE CAPE;

OR, TILE FORTUNATE EMBELLISHMENT.
riIIIERE is a wild boar at tke Cape of Good Hope,
A With whom If by choice or by chance you should cope,
Take care of your legs, for these first are big prey,
Aware without legs that you can't run away !'

Inc lin'd on a settler this prowler to feed,
The stranger was put to his uttermost speed
The wild waste athwart, but the boar faster ran,
And nearer still drew to the terrified man—
Fahausted who fell, and awaited his doom;
A horrible death in vitality's tomb!
Instinctively taught first to maim, and then slay,
The resohite savage now rush'd on his prey;
But suddenly staid his ferocious pursuits,
Subtitled by his shade in the settler's bright Boots.
Some observing Hottentots now raise the cry,
" Save lega, save lifea, up massa and Ay !"
When rotted from his stupor, aa3 conscious of grace,
The settler now wined o'er the desart his pace,
The hoar in his rear, but of wealth all unstrung,
And following in fancy the friend of its young !
And thus was the curious adventure sustain'd,
T.II harbour and Safety the Vasty soon gain 'd :
When receding fast front the dwellings of man,
The boar to his haunts unmolestedly ran.
"'Tees' Wattass's irr licaesso that ended the strife,"
The settler exclaint'd, " and has saved thus my life!"
And WA RIES'S Jar BLACKING now {laird as the cause
safety, was shouted with rapt'rous apply's !
The circumstance soon even to Cape Town was spread,
Each fact multitudinous evidence backing ;
And now, say the settlers," Both danger and dread
To shun, use the splendour of WA R RES'S JIM BLACKING."
It is a singular fact, that this ferocious animal uniformly
ir yaks the legs before taking the life of its victim.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

GUILDHALL

Saturday, David Dims, the bill sticker, was again placed at 'he
har.—The Magistrate (Sir C. S. Human) told the prisoner that he
had been remanded on Friday, with the hope that the author of the
bill in qtiestion might be discovered, aod,he now wished to kium
whether he could give up the person's name from whom he had re-
ceived the bills.

The prisoner said he could not, and repeated the same story of
their having been given to him in the street by a strange Gentle.
man, fur which he was paid 2s.
The MASZITILATZ—By your own confession, we find you are the
publisher • and the bills not having any printer's name attached to
them, renders you, as I thought yesterday, liable to the infliction of
penalties to the amount of 1001. and in case they are not paid, the
Magistrate must issue a warrant of distress ; but upon perusing the
Act of Parliament, Sth Geo. IV. c. IS, I find that the Magistrate
has the power of detaining you, wit Lout levying a warrant of dis.
tress, for a period not exceeding three months, unless the amount
be paid in the mean time.
Mr. Alderman Wood said, he had no iil feeling towards the man
at the bar, but he and his friends were anxious to arrive at He
name of the author of the bilk in question. In another case, they
had let a man go upon his giving up the name of his employers;
and in the course of the succeeding day he had stuck up a large
number of the samkbills. The Gentleman to whom they had traced
those bills was the Secretary to Mr. Ward's Committee, whu had
told the man he would see him righted. He hintself had no doubt
but the man at the bar was acquainted with the name of his em.
ployer, and to give him a little more time to consider whether he
would put the worthy Magistrate in possession of it, he would beg
that the case might stand over till Monday. After some converts.
tion, it was agreed that the ease should stand over for Monday.
Jekn Hill, the other man, charged with a like offence, was also
remanded till Monday.

BOW.STREET.

COACII Ronny.—Saturday, .Edward archer, aged go, was folly
committed to Newpte, charged with stealing Bank of England
notes, value 5361. the property of Messrs. Bolton and Watt, of
Soho, Birmingham. On the 11th of April last, a parcel was sent
by the Birmingham Post Coach, containing the property in Tie..
tiop, front the house of Bolton and Watts, in London, addressed to
?dr. Robinson, at their manufactory at Soho. The prisoner was
an inside passenger by the coach, and paid his fare to Birmingham ;
tut he stopped at Stoney &ratford, where the parcel was missed.
He returned by the Birmingham Union Coach, in the middle of
the night, and arrived in London on the morning of the 18th, and
got sovereigns at the limit of England the same morning, is ea-
change for part of the stolen notes. The us was clearly esta-
blished, and the prisoner said nothing in his defence. •

HATTON-GARDEN.
Saturday, William MAUR, a servant in the family of L.tly
Smith, in Doughty-street, was brought up by Kirby, an otlic,r,
charged with grossly insulting his mistress, whilst engaged with a
party on Friday evening. He was also accused of assavlting the
officer. It appeared that the defendant, who had lived with Lady
Smith for nine months, had frequently so misbehaved, that it w is
thought his services should be dispensed with, but upon his pro-
mising not to offend for the future, he was continued in his eniph.
Yesterday evening, however, he behtved in the rudest manlier to
Lady Smith and her sons. A party bad been invited to dinner it
six o'clock precisely. The company arrived, and on being escorted
to the tlining.room, the tables were found to be quite bare. The
bell was rang directly, when the defendant appeared quite drunk.
with a piece of roast beef in his hand, but refused to lay the ci )th
till all the company had left the room. Remonstrances were ut
vain, and on one of Lady Smith's sons approaching him, be si iced
him by the collar, whereupon Kirby the officer was sent for, and
he was taken into custody, but not until he had struck the officer.
The defendant here expressed his contrition for his offence, hat
was told that such conduct could not be passed over, and he was
committed in default of bail.

LETTER IROM DIR. RAMILTOR TO-MR% EMU.

Naples, August 16,1823.
MADAMI cannot help expressing some surprise that you should
ask of me to introduce to this Court any Lady with whom Mrs.
Hamilton does not think it proper to correspond. Indeed, I wish
that you had given to that circumstance its true interpretation ; you
would then have relieved me from the disagreeable necessity of de-
clining to comply with your request, it being quite out of my power
to present to his lUsjesty a Lady whironly a few weeks ago thought
fit publicly to leave her husband's house and protection. I sincerely
hope you will, upon this, abandon all thoughts of appearing at Court
on Tuesday next. Intase.you should be otherwise advised, I shall
certainly not•besitate to desire the servants of the Palace not to ad-
mit you into the drawing room.
I am, Madam, your obedient humble Servant,
W. R. HAMILTON.
The following note, in the hand-writing of defendant,
is indorsed on this letter
This letter was written in answer to a very kind application made
by Aln. liligh to be presented at Court. The day that Mrs. Bligh
quitted her husband's home, Mrs. Hamilton called upon her at
the Isle Britanoique Hotel three times, but was not let in, as Mrs.
had given directions to see no one.
The following day, when Mr. Wellesley saw her, he
recommended her to write to Mr. Hamilton, regretting
the mistake of the servants at the Hotel, and with other
expressions of great civility, to which Mr. Hamilton
gave her no answer.

elderly woman, Maria Norman, a pert little girl, her daughter, and
William Young, one of the would-be-men of the day, whose ars
does not exceed 16 or 17 years, the whole charged with obtaining
goods from different tradesmen.
A large quantity of goods were produced, all of which were ob.
Mined by the same means.
Mr. Rouess declared, he had never met with an instance of
greater depravity, and, sympathising in the feelings of the father, he
scarcely knew how to treat it; if she were his daughter he -I/ookt
lock her up in a room, and never suffer her to go out.
The prisoners were all held to bail.

LEAKE'S GENUINE PILLS, justly famous for
curing, in all its stages, the VENEItEAL DISEASE
One small Pill is a dose, and the taking of one Box, in a recent
ease, will soon convince the patient of the certainty of his speedy
recovery. Nothing can be better contsived, more safe, or more
convenient than this Remedy, for such as are obliged to go journies
or to sea, as it needs no confinement nor restraint of Diet; and
sixty years experience (in an extensive practice) has proved that it
will effect a Cure when repeated Salivation and all other methods
avail nothing. For the Scurvy and other Chronical Disorders,
this Medicine has not its parallel. Upwards of 40,000 persons
of both sexes have been radically cured of the above cruel disor-
ders, within the last eight years. Prepared and sold by the stile
proprietors, T. TAYLOR and SON, Members of the linyal
Col-
kge of Surgeons, at their House, No. 9, New Brid6e-street, in
Boles of only Sd. each, duty included. 4- N.B. Two back

COURT OF CHANCERY, Al7OlliT 17.
EX PARTF. BoURNE IN TIIIC MATTER OF BOURNE.
The arguments in support of the bankrupt's petition
to super ede his contmission were this day concluded.
The case wss part heard ye.terday.
Mr. Linn?, in behalf of Mr. B :nnett, the f ither-in-
, law of the har.krupr, described this to he a most un-
gratlful transaction. Mr. Bennett had been the bene-
' 'actor of his snrrin•law, and had made him a banktupt
from absolu►e ne,:essity. It was stated that during the
time the binkrnpt conducted the Poole and Dorset Ga-
zette, he took advertisements at the pace paid to Go-
vernment for duty, aad put the same into his pocket,
leaving his father t,i hear the expenses of the Paper.
The rolitics of the bar krupt having made the Piper ob-
noxious, many of the subscribers withdrew their sup
pm, and Mr. Bennett recommended his son to sell the
concern. The bankrupt went to Bath to procure money
to purer:lse new type, and not being snc,.essful consented
to the selling of the Paper. An information having been
soon after filed against him, Mr. Bennett made his son-
in.l4w a bankrupt. ft Ns as denied that the object was to
deprive hins of legal redress by an action, as stated in
the proceedings of y. sterday.

GUILDHALL.

Yesterday, a geoteel looking young man, named larkley, was
brought before the Sitting Magistrate (Amstar), charged with em-
.
6d.

bezzling two sums of 21.111. id. and ss. the property of his
employers.
The prisoner had been employed as a collecting Clerk to the pro-
secuton, and in that capacity had received several sums on their ac-
count. They had no cause to suspect his dishonesty, until the day
on which he misappropriated the above sums; and it was remark-
,hble that on that occasion be had banded over a few sums which he
4sad received from his master's employers:
• The prisoner (in a Ushering voice) denied the charge of embez-
zlement, saying that he had paid over the money to a brother-in-
law. who was also in the prosecutor's employment.
The Alderman banded him over for trial at the Sessions.

Anil nurse-looking personage, called Jana, wes charged with
having Introduced several pints of gin, and other curdiab, into
White Cross.street prison.
The worthy spirited philanthropist had filled three bladders with
Hedge's genuine extract, one of which he bad stuffed into his hat,
and the other two he bad concealed in the dark profound of two
very deep and dangerous pockets. Thus equipped he marched to
the portal of the gaol, and assuming the most indifferent aspect, and
whistling up his courage, he craved admittance. The turnkey ap-
peared to eye him with great keenness, and was about to let fly a
sharp volley of questions, when lo the bladder In his hat bunt,
and down came its precious contents in gentle rills over his cheeks.
This was proof demonstrative • a search commenced, and the two
other bladders were instantly brought out of darkness.
Alderman Anstrr—Well, Sir, what say you to this charge?
Prisoner—Oh! your Worship, you must be lenient on me; I
have an aged Infirm mother to support. and am in wretched circum-
stances. I tried this bit of thing in order to earn a few shillings, to
iteitiery mother and myself from starving.
worthy Aidetman said that the Legislature bad imposed a
heavy penalty on them who introduced spirituous liquors into any
of his Way's gaols, for the purpose of preserving the morals of
the.prisoners; and he therefore felt it his duty to convict him in
the lowest penalty of 101. and in default of payment, he must be
locked up for 14 days.
Henry Brownell, the seaman, was re-examined, charged with
neglecting to maintain two children. He was remanded, that the
Churchwarden might be satisfied by reference to the ship's papers
that the prisoner was absent from England so Jong before the birth
of the children, as to resider It impossible chit he should be the fa.
ther of them.

Captain Graydon, who commanded the Kent at that time, stated
that the prisoner left Gravesend on the 6th of July, 1820, and re-
turned on the 4th 'Winne, 1825.
Upon this testimony the prisoner was discharged, the Magistrate
holding the non-access to be established.

being sworn to as the father of the children by Mrs. FL Bromwril,

ROBBERY OF BANK NOTES.

At the latter end of last month, a parcel containing
bank notes to the amount of between 5,0001. and 6,0001.
the property of Messrs. Paget and Kirby, bankers, in
Leicester, was stolen from the Leicester coach. A
Gentleman, the friend of the bankers, ttho was going
to Leicester, offered to take charge of the bank-notes,
in order that no accident might happen to them. lie
accordingly placed them in his portmanteau, which was
'stowed away in the usual place in the coach; before,
however, the coach reached its destination, it was dis-
covered that the portmanteau and other property had
been stolen. The thieves could not have expected such
a prize as the portmanteau contained ; but finding that
they had pounced upon that they thought tiny might
turn to their advantage, and await of the spot in which
they might find purchasers, they hastened op to town,
and offered the notes for sale. They found it, however,
not so easy a matter to get rid of their spoil upon the
expected terms. The activity of the Committee for the
protection of bankers from forgery and robbery. for
which Committee Mr. Gates is the agent, has interfered
greatly with the facilities of disposing of such plunder.
fhe banknotes, upon being taken to the neighbour-
hood of Pentoaville, where there used to be a ready
sale, could not find a single purchaser. and the thieves
were obliged to resort to the old plan of negociation.—
They offered, through their agent, whom custom has
permitted to go with impunity in such cases, to deliver
up, the ge swag," upon lower terms than had been re-
ceived by the regular mail-coach robbers. The propo-
sition was rejected, and an assurance was given upon
the part of the bankers that no compromise should take
place under any circumstances whatever, but that the
thieves should, if possible, be brought to justice. The
notes were again produced in the 44 swag mat ket," but
fetched.not a bidder, so much terror has the new Com-
mittee infused into dealers in this description of mer-
chandise. The thieves again made application for a
compromise, and offered the whole for a sum infinitely
below their former offer ; but the Committee, deter-
mined to adhere to the principle of rejecting all terms
with rogues, would not consent to give a farthing for
the 6,0001.

SAILING MATCH.

Yesterday, the following yachts sailed or the Sacond Silver Cup
and Cover given this year by The Thames Yacht Club—Don
Giovanni, Waterloo, Royal Eagle, Mermaid, Will-o'-the-Wisp,
and the Venus.

They started precisely at half past one, from Blacitfriars Bridge,
to go round a bdat moored off the Powder•hnase, off Wandsworth
Meadows, and bask through Waterloo Bridge, the first boat la to
be the winner.

Tbe Royal Eagle took the lead at starting; but was soon over-
hauled by the Don, and the Boats passed Vauxhall in the following
order--Royal Eagle, 1 ; Don Giovanni, 2; Venus 3; Waterloo
4; Will-o'-the.Whiy, 5; and Mermaid, G. Beyond this, the
contest was entirely between the first three boats; for, on arriving
at Battersea Bridge, the other three boats were so far astern that
they bad not the shadow of a chance.
On arriving at the distance boat, the Don rounded before the
Royal Eagle about two boats' lengths.
The Venus was then three boards astern of the Royal Eagle,
with a head tide, and In consequence of which, when the Venus
rounded the distance boat, she was at least half a mile astern of
the two preceding boats. On the return. the contest excited great
interest between the two headmost boats. each alternately taking
the lead. Considerable bets were laid, and the odds varied so fre-
quently, from th:: change of situation of the boats, that 6 to 4 was
offered and taken on each of the boats, as they in turn hail the ad
vantage. The Veuus, though so frr astern at the distance boat,
from her superior canvass, in running down considerably over
hauled the Royal Eagle and Don, and had the distance been half
a mile further, there is little doubt she would have wltt the Cup.
The Giovanni tame through Waterloo Bridge a few seconds only
before the Royal Eagle, and the Venus was not more than a rid.
note behind.

The Don Giovanni won the Cup, throujh the sinsrrior dexterity
of her steersman, by getting the wind of the Royal &tee just be-
fore she arrived at the winning poin:.
There was a good breeze during the whole of the m;tch ; and,
on the whole, we have teldom, if ever, witne4sed a more interest-
ing sailing match.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

SI ANSI° N. 11 OUSE.

A cripple, who trails his legs after him on the ground, was brought
before the Loan Marna, on a charge of vagrancy.
Allen, the officer, stated, that the prisoner was one of the greatet
nuisances in the streets. His extremely wretched figure procured
him plenty of money, and he was in consequence constantly drunk.
His drunkenness was not unfrequently thought to hellions by pas-
sengers. He took with him a little white-beaded boy, Whose long
silvery locks bad considerable effect on the feelings of the Ladies.—
This little wretch was also seen with him in a state of intoxication.
Prisoner belonged to St. Giles's parish, but they never kept him in ;
perhaps it would keep him out of the City, if his Lordship were to
give him a short confinement in Bridewell.
The Lofts MATOR said, he should decline taking that course—k
would be just what the parish wanted. They cared not what nui.
sances their paupers became, so that they got rid of them. His Lord-
ship was convinced that the streets might be entirely cleared of dis-
gusting objects, if the parish officers did their duty. His Lordship
said, that the repetition of these cases would compel him to make a
complaint to the Secretary of State on the subject.
Allen said that this sort of paupers abounded in St. Giles's, where
they were not interfered with by the parish officers.
The Loan Maims sent the prisoner back to bis parish, with an
intimation to the parish officers, that if they were found in the City
to have sent others of their poor thus at large, to infest the streets,
they must expect that sonar proceedings would be taken to check
the the practice.
