Wednesday Lord-Mid 'Lady PA BMW( gave a sump.
tuous feast to the Protestant Children of their neigh-
bourhood, at his Lordship's seat, Newton-barry, county
of Wexford. At three o'clock upwards of SOO:children,
200 girls and 100 boys, all educated at the expense of his
Lordship. sat down to dinner, which was served out by
the Nobility and Gentry. friends of the Noble donors,
who had assembled upon the occasion. The day was un-
usually fine, and the scene of the most interesting de•
scription;evety person of rank and consequence within
10 Miles of Newton-barry was in attendance. After dinner
an excellent lecture was given by the Rev.Mr.M.Creagh,
and the children were, upon its conelusion, permitted
to indulge in innocent pastimes through his Lordship's
demesne. In the'evening the children again assembled
at the bugle's sound, and partook of tea, cakes, Ste.
Lady Farnham devoting a most zealous attention to the
comforts of the little ones during the entire day. Her
Ladyship distribrited religious tracts to each of the
children. They separaied at an early hour; and inch
was the anxiety of Lord and Lady Farnham to provide
for the comforts of their extensive Rock, that carriages
were sent to convey those home whose residences were
too far distant for their youthful limbs to accomplish
with ease. The parents of the children were also re-
galed, and an amateur band attended during the day.
Mr. Henry Maxwell was unremitting in his attentions
to Lord and Lady Farnham, and their numerous vi-
sitors. His Lordship has caused three schools, upon an
extensive scale, to be erected in his neighbeiurhood, and
to be supplied with teachers at his individual expense.

MOST DEPLORABLI ACCIDENT e-41 most afflicting
account was brought to this town yesterday of a disas-
trous accident which occurred to a boat on the Shannon
on the evening previous. Captain Whitworth Lloyd,
R.N. Inspecting Officer of the Coast Guard in this neigh-
bourhood. who has been for some years a resident, and
connected by marriage in this town, proceeded hence on
Sunday last to Beale, a station on the Shannon, for the
purpose of attending the trial of one of the Coast Guards
at that place, where other Officers had also assembled
bp appointment. As soon as the investigation had
terminated and the officers had dined. Captain Lloyd
got into the boat of Barry William Gun. Esq. of Bally-
. buntline, for the purpose of returning for the night to
this Gentleman's house, who was himself also in the
boat. They had to row a distance of about three miles.
and the evening was very fine; but, most melancholy
to relate, the entire number in the boat met a watery
grave. It is supposed the boat was upset in a squall,
as it was found the next morning drifting with the
keel uppermost, near the Kilt ush shore. Captain
Lloyd had taken with him, from this town, a young
lad, named Jobn Wilson, apprentice to an attorney,
for the purpose of noting the proceedings of the pial.
This young maa was in the boat when the disaster
occurred, and Lithe only one of the party whose body
has been found, as he was discovered entangled with
the ropes and sails of the boat. Besides the three per.
sous we have named, there were four boatmen of Mr.
Gun's, and a poor man to whom he gave a passage,
'who have been all lost, being altogether eight in num-
ber. Captain Bowie (who presided at the trial) had gone
up in the boat, and intended also to return in, her, but
changed his mind, and was thus providentially pre
served.—Captain Lloyd was nephew to .the late Lord
Whitworth, and was married to the sister of Wiliam
Townsend Gun, Esq. of this town. He was a vigilant
Officer, an affectionate husband. and a Gentleman of
strict honour. Mr. Gun's death is universally regretted
—be was extremely kind hearted and friendly in all the
relations of life, and possessed the sincere attachment
of most respectable and extensive family connectionse—

BARTHOLOAIRW FAlR.—Last night, at twelve o'clock,
Lady Holland's mob assembled in Smithfield, accord-
ing-to annual custom, to proclaim St. Bartholomew
Fair. ' The LORD MAvon opened the fair' this day at
twelve at noon, by Proclamation, and proceeded' to the
Court of Pied Poudre. The shows erected are veiry
numerous, and there are wonders of all kinds to be seen.

The Emperor of MOROCCO appears to show a war.
like spirit towards the European Powers. He lately
purchased two large vessels at Gibraltar, and fitted them
out as brigs of war. Accounts have been re:eivetethat
the British Consul at Tangiers has sent x dispatch to the
Governor of Gibraltar, stating that the two Morocco
brigs of war have captured the English merchant vessel
Perseverance, from Antwerp to Seville, off Cape Finis-
terre, and also an Austrian and a Russian verse'. The
English Consul has protested mainst the capture or de.
tension of the Perseverante. • '1 he Morocco croi,ers al-
lege that she sailed without a Mediterranean pas's.

Among the American physicians of the present day,
there is one in Salem, who, should he live till the 12th
instant, will have attained the age or one hundred years.
We allude to Dr. EDWARD AUGUSTUS HOLTOKB, long
revered for his professional skill and Fr:irate worth by
all who knew him. He is the oldest graduate at Har-
vard University, and the only surviving member of his
own and several succeeding classes. We understand
that he still retains his health, strength, and mental ener-
gies, and is now able to participate in the ordinary en-
joyments of life. He may be looked upon as the f.ther
of the healing art in New England, having probably
contriboted to its early establishment among us, and
witnessed its progress nearly a full century. As a testi.
mony of respect to his great age, his services, and vir-
tues, we are gratified to learn that the physicians of
Salem, and this city, have invited him to a public dinner,
to be given at Salem on the 13th inst. the day after he
will have reached his hundredth year.—Badon Gazette.
MOUT OF TIM ELIPHANT AT ASTLEY.S.OII MOO.
day night Mr. Cros4 elephant made his first appear-
ance at Astley's Amphitheatre, in the melo-drame of
Blue Beard, to a very crowded audience. The piece
was most splendidly got up, and went off with great
eclat. After the performance, it was announced in
the' bills that the elephant would go through a
riety of tricks in the circle, but he no sooner entered
than be became quite unmanageable, and appeared
terrified from the number of persons around him, and
the keepers who attended lost all control over him;
the affrighted animal made a plunge towards the back
part of the pit, and got his fore legs and trunk over the
pannels which surround the circle. The screams of the
tamales were terrific, and a geniral rush took place to-
wards the doors, and the confusion that took place it
is almost impossible to describe. Several Ladies were
slightly injured by the elephant's trunk, ande one Lady
was so much hurt, that she was taken to a surgeon's
and bled immediately. With some difficulty the ele-
phant was secured and taken out cf the circle, when it
was announced that he would again be brought in to,
proceed with his performance; upon which a general
cry of " No, no,' resounded through the house, and he
was at last brought out on the stage, when he went
through his tricks with the greatest docility imaginable.
The house was numerously and brilliantly attended by
a fashionable audience.

Published by WILLIAM SAMll—.Post Bvo. pp 904.
Tales and Essays on various subjects make up the
volUme before us,the prevailing characteristieof which is
fatetiou%ness and humour. The stories, chiefly founded
on Eastern manners and customs, are amusingly told,
with a due proportion of the marvellous and fanciful,
and the rest of the volume we may safely recommend
to the lovers of merriment. as the most certain means
of consuming a few leisure hours in laughter and good
humour. The illustrations add to the effect, and not-
withstanding the intimation conveyed in the title, we
cannot conclude without a wish that the writer may live
at least long enough to favour the public with more of
his entertaining fancies. In the mean time, our readers
will be gratified with the following extract of Tux
AWKWARD MAN....

I, I am, I confess it with some shame, as ignorant of
the' world as the world is of me, and have only been
able to look at -men as children look at an eclipse—
through glasses darkened and dulled with the smoke of
my midnight lamp. But a kind yet mistaken friend of
mine, who insisted that the proper study of mankind
Is map; after numberless invitations; polite pressures,
and gentle tugging'', pulled me up, by the roots from
my studious bower, as a gardener plucks up a thriving
weed, disentangling my very heart-strings and eye-
strings from the richly cultured ground of the Muses'
garden, and dragged me from my learned lair to ac-i
company him on a visit to some moderately fashion-
able friends in town. It was not till after much hesitat•
fpg, apologizing, and ;wresting him not to push me,
so soon following my arrival in town, into that vortex
which I dreaded—into gaieties so opposite to the melt'.
don in which I had passed my late pupilage in the
West of England; till after inquiring over and over again
whether they were very fashionable people? and being
assured that it was a plain worthy Scotch family,
the widow and son and daughters of Colonel —, who
had but lately arrived in this country from the East,
Indies, where the gallant Colonel had died, leaving
them in very handsome circumstances, that I submitted
at last to go with as good a grace as liarnardine did to
be hanged. It was the chilly month of November, and
we were ushered into a handsome dining-room where
were seated mine hostess, four or five elegant females,
her daughters and their young companions, a Captain
of Foot (her son), a fashionable Clergyman, a beau
cousin, and two sundries without anything distinguish-
able about them, the whole party being very snugly
circled round a warm welcome-giving autumnal fire,
and earnestly employed over the dessert table as we
were announced and entered. The whole company rose
as we appeared, and with them rose my heart to my
month. I made something like an oblique bow, which,
for anything I know to the contrary, was meant for the
company present, but it might be mistaken to have
been intended for the bust of Shakspeara on the side-
board, as for the use I had put it to. This would have
passed unnoticed, had I not. in the first place. in retreat-
ing my. right foot from a bow in advance, come with
my heel, which was new pumped. sharp against the shin
of the footman who was politely waiting to see me to a
chair;. had I not in the second, in shaking hands with
each one of the party on being introduced. nipped one
of the young Lady's fingers almost in the bud, and
dropped the band of a second without shaking it.
that I might grasp that of a third who was waiting
to go through the ordeal; and had I nor, in the
third place, shook the hand of the friend who intro-
duced me so 10ng,,. and so cordielly, that you would
have satiyosedl had never seen the man before
in my life,instead of having been brought thereby him.
But we were at last securely seated. and my friend and
I much blamed that we had not dined with them. .1t
was impossible,' he said. and I felt glad that it was so.
The wine was placed before us—l felt inclined to toast
the ladies in the excess of my gallantry; but just as I
had screwed up my courage tight to the peg, it cracked.
as you have perhaps seen the first string to a fine
cremona snap itself and a note in two, and have beard
the imperfect sound die under the bow: an did my gal-
lantry within my breast; and I congratulated myself
the next minute on my forbearance, for there was no
estimating what a long succession of awkward mistakes
it might have led to. But the spirit of nniccpstonsed
gallantry was still effervescing within, and I' thought I
might venture on being polite to the lady on my left.
I watched her wants, therefore, with the eye of a lever,
seeking occasion for saying some gallant thing, or for
doing one. Her eyes. which were the pre best pair of
blue eyes I had ever seen out of poetry, settled upon a
peach—twas all hone to serve her eyes, and so to win
her heart ; but darting my arm too hastily, I threw
down a decanter of wine, whOse issuing tide divided
and subdivided itself into as many streams as you may
see issuing from an allegorical urn in a county map.
Great consternation ensued : many apologies were made
by my blushing friend for my blushing self. which was
very handsome in him, as I was too confused to arida
gize for myself, and was fully employed in damming
up the main stream with my handkerchief, till the as-
sisting hand of a footman at my elbow. who was as
welcome to me as the sun to the rain-drenched• mea-
dows, had dried up the vinous inundation. My friend
lied for me like truth. I was, first of all, very near-
sighted. and could not see across a table, though he had
very oftea envied me the length of my sight; and next
I was very nervous, though he had often declared me to
be too strogg in the gymnastic exercises! The accident
was soon forgotten, the company was again calm, and
awkward was himself again.'"

the train which &ogled after her heels; and saying
this she stepped into her carriage with the grace of the

se My heart expanded in freedom when I arrived at .
my own chambers. I sat down in the silence of my
study, after, in the anger of a minute, stirring up the
fire with something like a spiteful thrust of the poker,
and committed these memoranda of my misfortunes to
paper, in the faint hope that this faithful picture of my
awkwardness may serve as a warning to the inexpe-
rienced, and teach them, that bashfulness renders a man
a miserable companion, stamps him of vulgar breeding
or of imperfect manners, and reflects no small stigma
on his character as a creature of sense and a citizen of
the world."

An improvement in the disposal and hanging of the
mariner's compass on shipboard has been made in Ame-
rica. It dispenses with the use of the binnacle; a bole
is cot in the deck; within this hole the compass box is
placed, and at top covered by a very thick glass; the
bottom of the box is also made of glass; the compass
card is made semi-transparent, and the whole lighted ;
from below. By these means the use of a tell-tale is
dispensed with, and the compass rendered much more
secure than in its former position, as' it is as firm as the
deck.

Mr. Pares LATNG'S THIRD MIRTING4III'. Paris
LARKS. that t. firm supporter of the House r f
Bruns-
wick,' made a third attempt yesterday, to get together
a Meeting relative to the resignation of the 'Loan Mos
ADIAIIRAL. The Meeting was as select as ever, there
being seven present, besides the Reporters. Alter keeping
them together for one hour and a half beyond the ap.
pointed time, Mr. P. LATKO took the Chair; but al-
though there were one Resolution and one previous
question moved, be would put neither the one nor the
other to the vote. In this dilemma, which threatened
to keep the unfortunate seven be :Mu quo all night,
some Gentleman hit upou the happy expedient of
moving a Vote of Thanks to the Chairman " on the oc-
casion of his having vacated the Chair," which Itesolo-
tion passed new. con. and the Meeting adjourned.
Yesterday an Inquest, which was adjourned from
Friday se'nnight, was held at the Buffaloes Head, New.
road, on the body of an infant which was discovered in
the water-closet of a house in Harconrt-stre:t. Padding-
ton. When the child, was found it was in such a state
oldecomposition that it was impossible to say whether
it was born alive. It appeared from the evidence, that
in the early part of last July. a young female, named
Ann Prangle, left the service of a Mrs. Railton, of Baker.
street. Portman-square, in consequence of being unwell.
It was the general impression among the servants, and
also of a medical Gentleman who examined her at the
time, that she was pregnant. Before leaving Mrs.
Railtos's service she went to lodge with a Mis. James,
who resides in Harconrt-street. and to whom she con•
fessed that she bad been delivered of a child a day or
two before, and that it bad been taken away by a I: iend.
About three weeks ago she left Mrs. James's, and went
to her friends in Basingstoke. This was the substance
of the evidence; and the Jury returned a verdict of
,d Wilful Murder" against Ann Prangle—and the Coro-
ner issued his warrant for her apprehension.

Tuesday se'nuight Mr.• Rugg, a Gentleman frog► the
West India, in travelling on the top of the coach frees
Edinburgh to Dundee, had his pocket picked of twenty
twenty-Chilling notes of Mihaly 's Bank. The man who
sat next to him on the coach did not cross the water with
the other passengers, on pretence that he bad some basis
nets to do; but he mentioned that he was to cress in the
next boat. It was only after Mr. Rugg arrived in Dun-
dee that he discovered the loss be had sustained. He
repelled to the Police Office, and from thence with an
officer to the Craig, to await the arrival of his coach
companion. The fellow came, and was immediately
apprehended and searched, but no notes were foend
upon him. In his examination, he denied that be had
takes the money. He had a gold watch, with gold
chain and seals on him, and has been committed to
gaol, until a coarmunicat on made to the' Edinburgh
Police Office has been replied to.

Monday morning a private still was discovered in a
shed, situate in the rear of a house in an obscure place
called Kingsland place, at Dalsm. Its existence had
for sortie time been suspected, from the whisky•like
smells arising occasionally from a dirty ditch which
runs past the place, and on Monday the Excise officers
found a still, warm, though not in operation, and about
eight quarts of wash. -There was no person in the
shed, and the only person resident in the house in front
was a woman of middle age, who said she paid ss. a
week for her lodging. and had no knowledge or concern
with the back premises. Irwas rim* "spected,
however, that she was kept there merely as a blind for
the illegal proceedings carried on in the rear. The
officers. found a man coming out of the cellar. who
declared that he had merely called to• see his ac-
quaintance, the female, and, from circumstances. t
officers believed his statement, and he was set at lib: tn.
A person named Davis, a milkman and greengrocer,
was met at some distance from the premises by Robin-
son, a Shoreditch constable,and a basket he carried con-
tained three gallons of raw spirits in bladders. He said
some person had given him Is. 6d. to carry them, and
he was subsequently discharged, undertaking to appear
whenever required by the Excise.

And, though more wished than aught beside;

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

CHESTER, SZPlZalltil 1.
James Clegg, aged 28, was indicted for the wilful
murder of his wifr, Mary Clegg, at Runcorn on the
24th of May.
Mr. ATTORNEY-GENERAL for the Palatine. Mr.
LLOYD with him stated the case on the part of the pro-
secution.

Mr. Sergeant JONES and Mr. COTTINGOAM were for
the prisoner.
John Ellis—l am a mason of Runcorn; I recollect
being at work at the top locks, near the new bridge,
Runcorn, on the morning of the 24th of May; there
were two flats, lying side by side still; at about four
o'clock in the morning I saw a woman on the one that
1 thought the Grocers' Company's fiat; it was that
which was the nearest to me; I do nut know the name
of it ; when 1 saw her she was going from the after end
to the forecastle; she called to the men, and told them
it was time to get up; in returning back she slipped
hetween the vessels, and I cannot say whether she went
.to the water or not ; she screamed out, and a man fi om
tre forecastle an and got a pole with a hook; he called
another man, Brooks; I did.not see what they did; in
about a quarter of an hour after I heard a scream of
murder ; it was a female's voice, and I thought it came
' from the same fiat; I heard a sound like blows; I saw
at that time one man on board; it was Hazlehurst ;
did not know him then; the vessel had not then moved;
in about ten minutes after that the vessel began to move
towards Manchester ; the screams continued as longue,
the flat was in my sight; the canal takes a turn there-;
I saw it tor about 40 roods ; I did not hear any screams
af:er the flat was out of my sight.
By the JUDOR—Tiae screams were loud; they became
fainter and fainter. 'The screams lasted about twenty
minutes. They began after Brookslad gone for the
horses, and continued after he returned, and until the
flat was out of sight.
Jos. Hazlthurst, a seaman, apparently about 18 years
of age,. was the steersman on board the flat Neptune on
the 24th of May ; the prisoner was the Captain, be was
called up by the deceased on that morning ; she went
along the other flat's deck; be supposed she must hive
slipped; she fell into the water. When they were pulling
her out she called out, " GOD bless you lads, do save
me." Brooks came and helped him to pull her out. As
soon as he saw her in the water he caught hold of the
boat-hook, and with that he caught hold of her by the
binding of her petticoats behind, and pulled her up,
when Brooks came, and they handed her on to the other
Rat's deck, and from thence be handed her to his own.
She did not appear to be hurt; she made no complaint
of being hurt; but she moaned as if she was crying;
she had been overhead in the water, or nearly so. He
saw nothing the matter with her face—no bruise nor
blood; he did 'not complain of being bruised or cut.
Ile handed her down to the cabin, and put his band on
her -husband, and said, 61 Jen), get up ;" he asked
what tor? he replied, get this woman into bed, do not
let her sit here. He silted where she had been • witness
said," I don't know, bat she has been and wakened us,
and we have taken her out of the Cut." Prisoner got
lip and began to dress herself. /kooks was then gone
for the horses, and witness went on deck. In about ten
minutes he heard a noise like‘oc knocking up and doses
the.cabin, and sinning doors." He supposed that it
must have been both of them ; when they began start-
ing with the fiat, he heard a shrieking ; he went to the
titter, and when they had got a bit, be heard a big noise
in the cabin; it continued about twenty minutes ; he
beard her shriek out, " Oh, my human blood ;" be heard
that-twice or thrice. He heard no other words, only
gt Dear Jem Clegg;" she cried that -out many times.—
The screams went weaker; he heard the prisoner rum-
magingabout the cabin; he looked down • the scuttle,
and saw the deceased laying on the cabin shut (theloor),
and some blood by her, by the side of her face ; she a as
lying on her side ; there was blood about-the breadth of
bis hand ; she was like asleep when ha saw her. The
prisoner came up and drew a bucket full of water ; w it-
net: said ti him," Oh, Jemmy. dinaa lick her no more;"
be replied, " D—n her eyes, I'll kill her." -He then went
down to the cabin with the water; Is heard the water
splash on the cabin floor; be.again tame up, and took
down another bucket of water; they had then gone a
long way,and he beard her give another heavy 66 :hr etit ;",
be never heard her speak afterwards; when they had
gone some way farther, he said to the prisoner, Jemmy,
why don't you look after that woman; it is not aright
-thing to, let her lay in that way." He replied, is De—s
bereyes, I wish she was dead, it would be as gooJ as
gag. in my way at the year's end." He said before
they got to Lynn, that he would put her ashore there,
the prisoner stopped at the Dog publiobome. Lynn;
they went oa. He then called. Brooks, who was with
the horses as board; that was about two o'clock.—
Brooks went down into the cabin, and after twardetw lines:
went. He called Mary. Clegg by her name; she was in
' bed ; he shook her, but she did not speak, but made a
bit of a. noise in her throat; be could not make her
answer him. They got to Manchester that night about
see ?clock, and-the next morning, about four o'clock,
the prisoner went fee a doctor. He was examined before
the Coroner. . He believed that the account he there
gave was not the same as he had then given. He was
drunk ; hr had been so for three dam and he knew not
what be had said; be bad.then:told the truth.
The witness underwent a most severe crosnexamina-
tion, and displayed such a total ignorance of all moral
obligations, as we never before heard. .
After the examination of a lumber of other witnesses,
Mr. Justice JARVIS summed up. and the Jury found
hin3Guilty of Mandrills/der. His Lordship, in sentencing
the planner, said be should have been perfectly satisfied
if the Jury had .found him guilty rf the higher offence,
astel' sentenced bias to be uansportefiffor life.
The trial lasted from nine in the morning Until seven
at sight.
