- -- • ACCIDENT •
• •TO THE DUKE OF. NORT,HUMBEELAND.
. Satorday morning, at
_foul o'clock, his 'Grace
reached Fetrybridge, or his return from town, in his
travelling chariot and four, having posted downwards
from town during the night; and atter having changed
hopes, proceeded on his route northwards. Unfurta-1
iiately, however, when arrived at Hookmoor, Ist tween
Ferxybridge and Abberford, but nearer the latter place,
eithet owing. to the postillions mistaking the centre of
the-bighway in consequence of the snow, or owing to
the slipperiness of the footing and convexity of the
to.td,h ;Grace's carriage reeled for some paces, and, in
spite of all efforts to avert the catastrophe, at last tell
over on one side. _ _ .

The Duke (who was nnattended except by a single
servant), we regret to mention, received a slight hurt
on the shoulder by the accident; but considering the
nature of the upset, and the serious damage done to the
chari,t, be may be said to have very providentially
escaped. It was then about five o'clock, A.M. and as
the frost was intense, the -.unpleasant situation of the.
Noble Duke, particularly after bis night's fatigue, may
.e easily imagined but the exertions of the po.t boys
and his Grace a valet, together with some casual assist-
ance, enabledthe whole party to resume their journey in
a short time. 'I heDuke reithed the Crown Inn,Borough-
bridge fur•breaktast, where every possible comfort by
the,landlord,-Mr. Scott, was administered to his noble
guest; and the-pannels of the chariot, itc. were put in
-arscb••a'state of repair, as enabled his Grace to proceed
oo his journey to Alnwick

. - ANCECOOTE
• OF THE DUKE OF NORTHUMBERLAND.

SOPC. years ago his Grace called on a tradesman in
Long Acre, and asked if he had not an ingenious model
of a life boat (for which Government offered a reward
of 4,0001. and which. had been claimed and obtained by
another. poison). The tradesman, without at all know-
log to whom he was speaking, replied that he had, and
forthwith showed him into the roomwhere the model was,
pkced. On examining it, his Grace found that the use-1
del differed, but in a very 'tilling degree, from the one
sent by the person who had obtained the reward of
2,0001. On expressing his. surprise that the person he ad-
dressed had not claimed the reward, instead of him vrt.o
hod got it, since the model before him was clearly the
original, the tradesman replied, that knowing he who
had obtained the re* aid was a poor man, he bad no
wish to interte.e, but freely left him to benefit by the
model. llrs Gi ace was much gratified at this Instance of
generosity in a tradesman, and told him he was so silti—
fied cf his integrity that if at any time he could be useful
*to him he would certainly assist him.- Not long after.
Aim ds thistrailesmon discovered a new mode of obtain
tog spermaceti oil, but riot having funds to carry• the
discovery into pr4ctice..he availed himself of the Dukes'
olfee,waited upon him, stateJ the circumstances in which
he was placed, and obtained an order on his -Griices'
agent for 10:00131. giving the Duke'r solicitor prper sc-
ald:ie., The project was torthwith cauird into esects
'lion, but in the end it was found that, though oil could be
obtained, its cost was so rein, that any hope of profit
was entirely out of the question, and the 10,0001. was
Irretrievably lost. Much consultation among the trades-
man and his it tends then took place, as to ti e coutscto
be •purined to enab!e him to repay the money.- Ai-lasti
when almost in despair, lie resolved to wait on the Duke
himself; he did so—laid the whole tranaction candidly
before him, and bolicittd:three yrears•to pay the money.
The Duke immediately said, in the m.,st affable and
kind manner, "Sir, 1 am sorry your hopes have been
&appointed; 1 bad flattered even myself the project
would have answered your expectation ; I know you to
be an hcinest man, and shall not thereto' e inflict an injury
where I intended to corder a benefit "—Saying these
waists, he arose, took the securities from a bureau,. and
threw them behind the fire. . . .

at this Theatre last night, Mr: ELLISTOW sustaining. as

have a rich treat to come. Mrs.. FITZWILLIAII was'
exceedingly sifective in Jane, and Nliss SCOTT WAS (elite
.at home in Lady Amaranth. VALE'S &OS was good.
The othtr parts ot the comedy were well cast, with the
exception of Ephraim Smooth, which was but a mediocre
pelf •rmande.
The entertainments of la,t night concluded with M.
G. Lawra's romantic drarn.t of The Wood Denton, which
has heels g t up here in a•style that reflects equal credit
on the taste and liberality of the-proprietor. The !louse
was well attended.
