BOAT RACE

Wednesday evening a boat race took place on the river Memel.
for One Hundred Guineas, between boats belonging to the Bittern,
sloop of war, steered by an officer • Sir Richard Pulestone, steered
by Captain 'rice, R.N. Captain imerson, of the Etna, steered by
Captain Emerson; and Lieutenant Mooch, of the I.auret, steered
by Lieutenant Monck. Tue quays and the opposite shore were
lined with spectators, and the river, in the line of the course, was
studded with a number of boats, laden with individuals who take
an interest in aquatic sports. At a few minutes after five, on a
signal gun being fired, the boats started from Sir Richard Puleston's
yacht, near Woodside, and proceeded with great celerity down the
river, round a boat moored south of Seacombe—thence past another
boat near the Floating Bath, up the river, round the Bittern in the
Sloyne, and back along the Cheshire shore to the yacht ; consider-
able sums were depending on the event of this race, and we make
the following statement on the best authority : The boat belonging
to Sir Richard Pulestoue, rowed by six boatmen of Liverpool, took
the lead, and came in first; that of Mr. Mooch second ; Captain
Emerson's third; and the boat of the Bittern fourth. Sir Richard
Pulestone entertained Admiral Murray, and a sekct party, outman%
his beautiful yacht; and Captain Emerson, with his usual butyl-
tality, regaled his friends on board the Etna. The race afforded
much gratification to the spectators.

The Great Westminster Dairy Company dissolved

Those oho have read any of the thousand and one
accounts of the French Revolution, must recollect a
[evolutionary decree for the destruction of Lyons, in
consequence of its attachment to the Royal cause. The
proprietors of the houses which were pulled down, in
consequence of this absurd and brutal measure, on o,e
ground that they were destroyed for the advantage of
the public, have brought an action against t:re Magis-
trates of Lyons for compensation.

ANOTHER ACCOUNT.

Rumour is busy in making out various statements of
what is passing between M•. Beaumont and Mr. Lamb
ton, who are unfortunately engaged in an affair of
konour; but at six o'clock on Saturday evening, the
whole business WAS cleared up by the arrival of the
seconds at Alnwicls. Mr. Lambton proceeded across
the strand in the direction of Belford, where an ex-
traordinary scene took place. Mr. Lambton and his
friends were mobbed by a concourse of people in
Belford, which detained them at die inn from twelve
until near three o'clock. and they were, after en-
during a variety of insults from an infuriated popu-
lace, who happened, from circumstances of local ex-
citement, to be in favour of the adverse Candidates,
only able to extricate themselves through the active
interposition of Mr. Thomas Alder. a Magistrate._
Upon being released from this crowd, they proceeded
immediately to a field on the strand at Bamborough,
where twelve paces being measurei, the principals fired
a case of pistols without effect. The seconds then with-
drew them from the ground without any further expla-
nation. Both parties behaved with the greatest corn-
posure. The intelligence that the duel was over,
without any fatal occurrence, was received in Alnwick
with the greatest joy.

M A RLBOROUG H-STRIRT.

Yesterday Lord Bingham, the son of the Earl of Lucan, and the
newly-elected Member for the county of Mayo, In Ireland, was
charged in the watch-book of St. James's parish with various acts
of insubordination towards the " nightly watch and if the nightly
watch told truth in their statement, his Lordship and his companion
certainly behaved in no •ery orderly vi Parliamentary manner.
The night-broil and row, it appeared, took place in St. James's-
street, near the Guards' Club-house, into which establishment the
watchman .tared that his Lordship and party very humanely pro-
posed to drag a few of the guardians of the night, and then and
'there to annihilate them with pokers, Sec. after the fashion charged
a short time ago upon Lord liarhorough as regarded some of the
liond-street people at Stevens's Hotel.
After hearing all the details of the affair. Mr. Roe, the Magis-
trate, did not think it a case where it was necessary to hold the ac-
cused to bail, and sent the whole pack, Lords, watchmen, and all,
about their business.

UNION-HALL.
Yesterday a respectable looking man charged a Solicitor with
having violently assaulted him and robbed Mei of a handkerchief,
on Saturday night.
On examining the different witnesses, however, it appeared that
the prosecutor was incapable of knowing how he lost his handker-
chief, from the effects of the juice of the grape, and the Magistrate
severely reprimanded the Night Constable of Lambeth (Richard
Hall), for taking the charge, and fined the complainant five shillings
for bring drunk.

Yesterday morning a fire broke out on the premises
of Mr. Harding, baker, its Wellington-street, White-
chapel•road. Engines were quickly on the spot, but
were nearly useless, for want of water, there being no
plugs turned on for three quarters of an hoar, and the
only supply obtained was by pails from a muddy ditch.
The house was cun,umed, and the escape of the family
was almost mi•aculous.

Saturday night an Inquest was held on the bodies of
three men, named James Brown, John Wright, and
Edward Palmer, who were accidenatlly drowned at the
New London Bridge. Wright and Brown, and some
other workmen, were employed in raising a barge
which had sunk between the starlings of the Old Bridge,
and the guy rope broke, and threw all employed IWO
the river. Wright and Brown sunk, to rise no more.
Palmer rowed a boat from the shore to endeavour to
save them, but the tide funning strong at the time, he
was capsized. Verdict—Accidentally drowned.
Saturday, a Mrs. Heather, who keeps a mangle in
Union-street, near Shoreditch Church, met with the
following accident :.—A neghbour, bringing some linen
to mangle, put her child, a tine boy, two years old, on
the mangle, by the way of giving it a ride : the child
rolled off, and falling under the immense weight of the
mangle at the time it was turning, in an instant the
,head of the infant was crushed to pieces.

POST OltICE:

An important question, and one which has long hem
doubtful, respecting the postage of letters, has at length
been decided in a very satisfactory manner. Messrs.
C. It. Chappell, and Co. of Manchester, manufacturers.
lately received a lettet froth a commercial house in
Ireland, containing enclosed a draft upon a banker.-
The letter was bharged with triple pctuage; and off 3p:
plication being made at the Isost Office for the recovery
of the overcharge, Messrs. C. and Co. were informed
that they could have no redress, because the sheet' of
paper in which the draft had been inclosed contained
riot only A letter, but a statement of account betwixt the
two hooses. Toe account was wriiien at the top of the
sheet, and under it a letter commencing thus:
Gentlemen,—We are in reeettit of youri of the sisth ultitlW4
and now band you a staternent of your account, as it appears anti&
face of our ledger, by which you will remit.," &e.
Being desirous of obtaining the opinion or a higher'
authority, however, Messrs. C. and Co. wrote to thi
Secietas y of the General Post Office in London, an .1
they 14,t week receive.: the following reply :

AIYLRIV, SAICRIGAT
This day was the market-day at A ;pleb'', and the
general belief that it would be the last day of the ejec-
tion. and the annunciation mace by Mr. Brougham list
night, that he would upon that day show up certain of
tl e subscribers to the No Popery declaration, attracted
to the town a very large portion of the country people.
The yellows mustered in great numbers, eager to enjoy
their anticip-t-d triumph, and to feast once more at the
ezpence of the house of the Liwthers. The blues,
though downcast, do not yet despair. In several nt
the shops blue cards and ribands are exhibited, with
the inscription, " We are not done yet: Brougham
again and again," and the walls are scrawled over with
the same words, in letters so large, that he who pins
may read. I wande.ed up and down the market this
morning, and entered, whenever I could conveniently
oat tin an opportunity, into conversation with the
m u ket pr ople ; and I found that many who wore yell
tihands, lamented over the defeat which had br en give!)
to Mr. Brougham. Indeed, one of them told me di,
iinctly, that more voted for the L wthers than liked
them, and that more liked Mr. Brougham than voted for
him. The Blues are perpetually telling their opponents
that they will indulge the Lowthers with another con-
test at tire first npportunity,and that they are deter mined
to see whether the public subscription cannot hold out
as long even as the well stocked purse of their Lrrd
Lieutenant. They boast, too, that in the present vice-
, tion, for every guinea spent on their side, five aA lead
have been spent for the Lowthers.
The polling went on till one o'clock, when an arraoge-
rnent was made between the candidates that it shou:d
close. The Under Sheriff accordingly made proclama-
tion that if no freeholder tendered his vote within hail
an hour, he should proceed to terminate the electron
At two o'clock he came upon the hustings and cleaned
the poll to be as follows:

COURT OF CHANCERY, MAT 8.

VAUSANDAU W. MOORE AND OTHERS.

In this c Ise the LORD CHANCELLOR, after having
gone through the whole of the proce!dings in the
cause, observed, that he was of opinion, as the Court
had never interfered, to his knowledge, in the present
stage of a caw, though when the cause came to be
heard the Court would take care to make full com-
pensation for all that might have been oppressive and
iliptoper ; yet, he could not •enture to go the length of
directing inquiries, the effect of which would be to call
on those. individuals to join in their defence, thereby
forming a precedent, of which, as far as his recollection
went, he knew of no example. On these grounds,
having not the slightest doubt that there never was a
better intention on the part of the Judge who made this
order, than he was actuated by stating, that he (the,
Lord Chancellor) had more information on the subject
than the Learned Judge had, he thought it Ins duty to
say, he could not allow this order to stand.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

GUILDHALL

R. Evans, the Guard of the Birmingham Post Coackwas brought
up on suspicion of having been accessary tv the stealing of Mi. in
Bank Notes.
When the parcel was entrusted to him he was told its contents ;1
this was on the evening of the 11th of April, and on the following
morning an old man presented the whole of the notes at the Bank
to be changed for notes of 1001. each ; and these he immediately
changed for sovereigns. At Stoney Stratford the Guard missed the
parcel, and if he bad immediately returned to London, the informa-
tion would have arrived time enough to have stopped the old man;
but he went on to Birmingham. He stated that he should have
carried the parcel about his person, but it was too large to go into
ihis pocket, and he therefore threw it into one of the seats inside the
coach. Three witnesses, however, swore he did put it into his
breast pocket.—Remanded.

LESLIE V. 'URN'S.

This was a bill filed by the plaintiff, who is a seat-
holder in the Scotch Church, Swallow-street, for the re-
moval of Mr. Woodrow, on the ground that the election
of this Gentleman to exercise the functions of Minister
in the chapel, was not in conformity with the pro-
•isions of the trust deed of 1697.

It appeared that the plaintiff was not permitted to
vote at the election, according to the provisions of the
deed. The election had been referred to the Presbytery
of Scotland, by which it was approved of and con-
firmed, there being of the whole congregation only the
plaintiff and six others dissentient at the time of the
election; but on the approval of the Presbytery, these
six gave also their assent to the propriety of the elec-
tion. The plaintiff therefore stood alone in opposition
to the congregation.
The LORD CHANCELLOR, in delivering judgment,
took a •iew of the deed, aad of the ecclesiastical and
temporal affairs of this Church, as bring a part and
parcel of the Church of Scotland, and observed, that
as to the ecclesiasical affairs, as far as concerned the
qualifications of the person elected, this Court had
nothing to do; but looking at it in a temporal point of
view, he found no innovation on the method usually
practised at the election of Ministers, which was by bal-
lot. He would therefore dismiss the bill, with costs.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Mar 8.
MARSH V. HOItNE.

The CHIEF Jumce delivered the judgment of the
Cpurt in this cae, which was argued on a former day of
this Term. This case came before the Court originally
on a special verdict. It is an action against the pro-
prietor of a stage coach, for the loss of two boxes sent
by his coach to Bath. The declaration was in the usual
form of aisumpsit. The special verdict found that the
defendant, being the proprietor of a Bath coach, pub-
lished an advertisement, giving notice to the public,
that he would not hold himself liable for the loss of
any parcel or package of more than 51. value, unless the
same was entered and paid for as such. Plaintiff knew
of such advertisement when he delivered these two
boxes to go t 3 Bath, and defendant was aware they
were word, more than U. and yet no insurance was
tendered by one patty, or requited by the other. We
do not think th it fact is suffiLient to take the defendant
out of the range of the protection which this Court has
held, in different cases, such notice as he had given
threw round him; and therefore we think that judg-
ment mtbt be entered for the defendant.

Wringslaw, complaining of the misappropriation of the Panda of
Rugby School.
On the second reading of the Bill to empower the disposal of the
suns of 41000 to elect Fellowships for the Masters of the School,
Mr. ELLICE said, that although they thought this honour held
out to the Masters was likely to procure better ones for the school,
yet he was of opinion that the sum of 10001. would be better laid
out in educating at poor, which he believed was the original in-
tention of the donor. He would narrowly watch the progress of
the Bill in the Committee, and would vote against the measures
which the Bill intended to authorises—The Petition was referred
to the Committee on the Bill.

THE KING V. W H. ELLIS.

The C• UHT gave judgment in this case also, and de-
cided that as the prisoner had been sentenced to four•
teen yea's transportation for petit larceny, in stealing
from his mistress one shilling, the Court of Sessions at
Exeter had exceeded the authority of the law, and there.
fore, as the sentence was bad altogether, no fresh judg-
ment could be given.
Mr. Cut rr then moved, that four other indictments
which were preferred against the prisoner for similar
offences, and to which he had pleaded, might be re-
m•rved into this Court by Certiorari, to lay the ground
for changing the venue, as it was sworn by the prisoner,
that after vat had already happened there, he could
not have a fair trial in that city.

The Comm doubted whether they could ultimately change the
vinare from the county of the city of lizeter,but granted the Certiorari.
In the meantime the prisoner is remanded to Newgate until
next Term.

RC Ma. BLUM.

shal of the King's Bench should not admit Mr. Bligh to the rules

cause against du- rule.
The LORD Cum, Jurrica said, if there was any opposition the
Court would not interfere.—Rule discharged.

MARY-LA-BONNE.

Mr. William Beverley, the Proprietor of the West London
Theatre, was summoned before Mr. Rowciesoni by George Sim-
mons, for refusing to refund him the money which he had received
for admittance ' • but, in consequence of the crowded state of the
house, he could not see the performance.
George Simmons stated that he went with his wife and daughter
to the West London Theatre on Saturday evening, and being re-
fused admittance for his daughter, at the pit door, under full price,
he then went to the gallery, where he was told by the check taker
that there was sufficient room; but when be got into the gallery,
he could net remain there, on account of the great crowd. The
check-taker passed him on to the pit ; but that place was also so
crowded, that be could not remain in it. Ile demanded kis money,
which the Proprietor refused to return, alleging it not being cus-
tomary to do it.
Mr. Beverley produced an account of the receipts of the evening,
by which it appeared that forty persons were admitted to the gal-
lery at half-price, and also a considerable number to the pit. Ile,
therefore, contended that there was sufficient room in either place,
at a quarter to seven o'clock (which was long before half-price),
for Mr. Simmons, his wife, and daughter.
Mr. Rawunson said it was quite clear the complaint was
groundless, and he was bound to dismiss the application.

The coach established on the Stockton and Darling-
ton Railway carried lately in one day 158 passengers,
the whole of whom were drawn by two horses.

Aware of the public curiosity which will follow the announce•
meat of this Journal, the Proprietors feel anxious to render its
contents worthy of its capacity and external promise; so as to
satisfy, by its intrinsic merit, the expectations which, as a remark-
able product of Science applied to Printing and Paper-making, it
la calculated to excite.

The Proprietors of the ATLAS are, by the novelty of their plan,
relieved from the invidious necessity of undertaking to perform, in
a better manner, what is already dean by others. Pint they pro-
pose, by means of a double space, along with a careful and pains.
taking system of selection and abridgment, to afford a greater
variety than can be found In any single Newspaper ; their object
being to concentrate, in one sheet, the various matters of fact and
speculation which are at present 'tattered through many, and
which no Newspaper of the common size can contain.. •
The ATLAS will combine three great features peculiar to itself:
it will form a complete WitiLT NrSISPANCL, an OLIGINAL News-
PAPER of the Srverern DAT, and an ample itstraitat. of LITILA-
wusa, both English and Foreign.
The ATLAS will have NO POLITICS OP ITS owe; but it will have a
departmens mere interesting to the Politician than any which the
Proprietors could hope to supply with original writing. A selec-
tion will be made of the best articles that appear during the week
on each side of every public question. A great variety of sources will
be resorted to—Reviewe and Magazines as well as Newspapers,
and among the latter the Provincial as well as the London. By
this plan, which is new to the English Newspaper Press, the far
greater portion of the seected articles will have for esed Reader
the value of originality ; while both instruction and amusement
will be derived from the appearance, side by side, of the opposing
arguments of the ablest political writers of all parties.
In the LITSRART DLPARTAIINT, copious extracts will be given
from such new books as admit of interesting quotation t others will '
be analysed. The Proprietors are determined that this important
department shall be wholly independent of interested influence;
and they pledge themselves that so person connected with the pub..
fishing of books shall have the slightest concern in, or confront
over, the Literature of their Journal.
Prospectuses may be had, and Orders and Advertisements will
be received, at. the Office of Messrs.. WHITING and Bataisron,
Printers and Engravers to the King for the Prevention of Forgery,
Beaufort House, fleanfort.buildings, Strand.

SURREY SESSIONS, JAR. 14.
Jams Smith, the man' who Ka, induced, at the
recommendation of the Court, to plead Not Guilty to
an indictment to which he at first pleaded Guilty, was
this day tried and convicted.
• Axis Lateance, an interesting young woman, wasin-
dicted for having stolen a scent-bos, a chrystal seal,
some candles, knives and forks, and jelly, with other
articles, the property of her master, Mr. Anderson. The
ptisoner was found Guilty.
Mr. HEDGER, who acted as Chairman in the tem-
poral y ab.ence of Mr. Scrtiviw, said, it was the pain-
ful duty of the Magistrates, at every Sessions, to sen-
tence rersons more or less severely for this offence, ac•
cording to the circumstances attending its commissicn.
It was the duty of the Magistrates to protect masters
against the depredations of their servants, and the sen-
tence of the Court therefore was, that the prisoner should
be transported for seven years.
The prisons's-, on hearing the sentence pronounzed, made a
pathetic appeal to Mrs. Anderson, and was then taken from the
bar in hysterics.
