THAMES POLICE.

A man named William Sheppard was on Monday night brought
to this Office, charged with robbing and maltreating a sailor named
Martin; in a very desperate manner.—lt appeared in evidence,
that Martin was sitting in the Three Crowns, Upper East Smith-
field, and was occupied counting his money. The prisoner came
into the room, and entered into conversation with the sailor,
and suddenly snatched some of the money from him and
handed it to another man, who ran out of the house. The sailor
jumped up, and grasped hold of the prisoner's collar, but he broke
away from him, and struck hint a tremendous blow on the face,
which knocked him down. The landlord, his waiter, and some
other persons, came to the sailor's assistance, but the prisoner fought
desperately, and dealt tremendous blows on all sides ; he was, bow-
ever, secured, and with great difficulty brought to the Office kick-
ing and plunging every step of the way. He was committed to
Newgate for trial.

Inquests were held yesterday at St. Bartholomew's
Hospital, on the body of Mrs Starkey, aged 76, who
was dreadfully burnt on Saturday last, at her house in
Dutton Street, Brunswick Square, and expired on Mon-
day in the Hospital.--Verdict, " Accidentally burnt to
Death." On William Eady, 18 months old, who was
scalded to death.—Verdict, II Accidental Death."
Yesterday, an Inquest was held on the body of Char-
lotte Rix, a fine young female, 18 years of age, who
died suddenly, in fotterthana Court, in consequence of
having ruptured a blood vsssel. A few minutes before,
she left the house of Mr. Maybank, in Tottenham
Court Road, with a female friend, in apparently good
health.—A verdict was returned of " Died by the Vi.
sitatioq of Gop."

Monday a scaffolding, fixed under the dome at
Carlton House, gave way, when two men were preci-
pitated from a height of 18 feet, one of whom had his
thigh broken, and the other was so dreadfully bruised
as to leave but faint hopes of recovery.

London, England, 1828-12-08


Padilla, succeeded in entering his house, and it was
there that the brave Colonel Bolivar was shot. falling
under the bands of men litho had Wet seen the face of
an enemy. Colonel Ferguson aves also killed by the
conspirators who had attacked the palace, and who
encountered him accidentally as they were leaving it,
after the escape of the Liberator.
ab 6 public mass was celebrated on the very next
triaging (September 26) in gratitude for the safety of
Bolivar. The citizens are said to have crowded around
the Liberator to congratulate him on the event. Several
thousands of the neighbouring peasantry were very
shortly under arms, and at the disposal of the Govern-
meat. A decree was also issued the same day (the 26th)
in which Bolivar announces his determination, grounded
on the conspiracy. to exercise those extraordinary po xers
which, he says, the nation had previously vested in him.
A courier who left Bogota on the 30th of September
had arrived in Carthagena, bringing information that
five of the conspirators bad been executed, and Colonel
Guerra was to be hung on that day. Every thing which
can serve to blacken the character of Santander and
Padilla is insetted in the Gazelles. bet we canna find,
on careful examination, any specific evidence of their
guilt. The Impels in Bolivar's interest, however, roundly
assert that they were the authors of the conspiracy, and
clamour loudly for their execution, which they say is
soon to take place. It is possible that their connexion
with the conspiracy was too open and manifest to requite
the specification it evidence. That they were concerned
in it seems to have been the opinion of the writer of the
above letter, and we think it more safe to rely upon his
judgment than upon any speculations of our own.
We yesterday gave a summary of the Colombian
news. The following additional particulars will be
found interesting.
The private letters assert that Santander and Padilla
were at the head of the conspiracy ; that their object,
besides the death of B dim, was the elevation or the
former to the Presidency. A great many arrests and
some executions had alreidy taken place.
A letter from Carthagena of the 19th ult. says—"A
few persons here have been arrested and imprisoned, on
suspicion of having been concerned iu the conspiracy."
A very respectable foreigner at Bogota writes,l
under date of September 28—" I am afraid the party
against the Government is very numerous and increasing
throughout the country. A measure recently adopted
by the executive against the advice of Council, for
stopping the payment of dividends on the home debt,
for the purpose of appropriating them exclusively to the
payment of dividends on British loans.is very unpopular."

According to the l3►us,rls Papers received last night,
the discussion respecting the liberty of the Press, which
Was occupied the Second Chamber of the States General
of the Netherlands for several dap, was terminated in
favour of the Ministry by a majority of 61 to 44. We
ate told, however, that this decision is not to be taken
as a criterion of the sentiments of the Chamber, they
having already been unequivocally expressed, but as a
mark of respect to the KING.

We have teceived by the Florida Packet, which
reached Liverpool on Saturday, New York Papers to
the 16th ult. They contain very interesting intelligence
from Colombia, which we insert in our preceding
columns. It appears that an attempt has been made
to assassinate BOLIVAR, who narrowly escaped being
murdered in his palace. It is asserted that SANTANDIR
and PA/MLA were at the head of the conspiracy. and
that their object, besides the death of BOLIVAIt, was
the elevation of the former to the Presidency. A great
number of arrests, had, in consequence, taken places
and. proclamations been issued, &flouncing the utmatt
severity of the law against the conspirators.
By the Dutch Mail we have received St. Petersburgh
Papers to the 21st ult. and Hamburgh Papers to the
Sd inst. They do'not contain any intelligence from the
theatre 6f war, and are chiefly occupied with matters
of local interest. The following are extracts :

The revenues are estimated at 7,171,230 six doUars.—leaving a
deficiency of 1,708,230 tie dollars, which must be provided for by
fresh grants. Besides this, as extraordinary grant of 11,591,000
rix dollars for the fortifications, is proposed, which is to be repaid
in Ave years, by means of treasury bonds, bearing interest.

LEEDS MEETING.

Friday morning a meeting took place lathe borough
of Leeds, for the purpose of getting op an AdJress to
his Majesty in favour of Emancipation.
At an early hour, some of the lowest Irish resiJeat in
the town posted themselves in the Cloth Hall Yard, f r
the purpose either of annoyance or approbation, as cit.
cumstances might require.
JOHN MARSHALL, Esq. M.P. was called to the Chair.
As a matter of course he disavowed all party feeling,
and processed himself, in the usual cant of the day, a
friend to civil and religious liberty.
A Mr. Tome then came forward, and, after predict.
ing the most dire calamities to the empire unless Eman-
cipation should be gr anted, proposed a resoltition and
an address to the Crown in favour of thst measure.

HOMY HALL, Esq. with much good sense and sound
reasoning, opposed both the resolution and address, and
was seconded by the Rev. T. GALLAND.
A show of hands was called for, and slier repeated
trials the CHAIRMAN declared the numbers so eqtkally
balanced that he could not decide on which side the
majority lay. The appearance, however, being against
the Catholic Claims, he was pressed by the Reverend
G. Wray, Mr. Alderman Hall, Mr. Baines and others,
to come to some decision, and after much hesitation he
said, 4. I must honestly give my opinion that the Reso-,
lotion has the majority.
Mr. Alderman HALL then demanded the appoint-
ment of tellers, to ascertain with accuracy which way
the sense of the meeting lay. Thii was refused, and
the refusal proves beyond dispute that the pasty who
boasted of victory were well aware that the result
of a mote accurate division would have been defeat.
This refusal was at breach of promise, for it had been
previously agreed upon, that in the event of any diffe-
rence as to the division, four tel.ers should be appointed
on each side.
Some mischief was done by the rabble who assembled
on the occasion, but fortunately no serious occident
occurred.

MASQUERADE AT THE ARGYLL ROOM&
The second Masquerade this season took place last
night at the Argyll Rooms, and was-upon a grand and
pleasing scale.
At t.velve o'clock the rooms, notwithstanding the
chilly dampness of the evening, were crowded with'
very elegant company, and the boxes were crowded
also by fashionably dres,ed parties, amongst whom
were some juveniles, who appeared quite enchanted
with the fun and variety.
'f waltz, quadrille, and country dance bands were,
as usual, numerous and effective, and the enlivening
sounds of music che, red the approach of the characters
to every part cf the rooms.
The characters and fancy dresses last night generally
were new, and peculiarly happy in their illustration. It
is impossible to select particular instances of humour
from such a crowd of Gentlemen, cavaliers, beggars,
b.nditti, gipsies, match women, &c.
The supper and refreshments were supplied upon an
entirely new and convenient plan, and in great,abund•
rte. The invincible, exhilirating„ and effervescent
Champagne was the order of the night, and the demand
for it was, to Charles's delight, more than usually great.

IMPROVE\IENT IN FLEET STREET.

Among the many metropolitan improvements, one'
that is about to take place in Fleet street will be
most important and ornamental, nut only to the inha-
bitants of the immediate neighbourhood, but to the
public generally, in widening the narrowest part of
Fleet street. The three houses occupied by Messrs.
Hove's banking establishment, and the two houses on
each side adjoining, are about to be pulled down, %Ind I
the site thus le't vacant, occupying a frontage ..f nearly
one hundred feet by about the same depth, will be laid
out as a carriage drive and fore court ; and, in the gar-
den at the back of the present houses, a spacious and
e:egant buildi g will be erected, adapted not only for
the increasing business of the banking firm, but also for
a ton residence. The mansion, when completed, *ill
front F eet street, and, from the plans we have seen of
tLe building and the projected alterations, will pros e
most spacisus and extensive banking establishment
is the kingdom, tie Bank of England only excepted. A
pan nf the vacant ground will be devoted to widening
the street on the south ride seteral feet, and there will
be ample room within the fore court for cars iages to
wait for those who have business to transact at the bank-
ing house, and the inconvenience arising fri.m carriages
waiting in Fleet street will be thus obviated. These
provements will be effected at the sole expense of Messrs.
ileare, and, added. to the derty4ition of St. Dunstan's
Church, on the opposite side of the street, and the et ec-
tion of a new Church wore in the rear, north hard, will
thus throw open the narrowest entrance into the City,
and prove one of the most impottant improvements
that ha; been effected within the City of London for
&any years.

ICITRACT OP A LIITTER FROM PARIS, DAVID THR 2iiTs

AT NIGHT.

The new Ministry, as they now stand, are determined
to meet the Chambers on the sth February ; but there
Is great doubt if they will succeed in having the majo•
rity in the House of Deputies. They experience the
greatest difficulty in filling the minor cffices, such as
the Director of the Posts, Public Institution, Domains,
etc. The Ministers wish to make friends with all parties,
but cannot get any of them to join with them; and
their difficulties are so much augmented, owing to a
deficiency of above one hundred, millions of francs.
M. Ray, who is the most popular of them, says, they
will present themselves before the Chambers with
good laws, and a sincere Constitutional profession.

called Nichnlas Charpentier, toil adopted the errors of
the Nevetediest. At the moment that he was about to
put his bread into thoeveo, in the presence of two of his
female neighbours, as he swore and blasplumied very
much, the dough suddenly became immediatelyaii
could not be put into the oven ; the baker
became pale as death, was seized with a sudden trem-
bling and was coveted all over with a cold sweat. He
wasps* to bed, and died at the end of two days. He
had, however, the presence of mind to make his will, of
which the following is the most remarkable passage:—
"I bequeath to my wife all my property and the
money that I possess; I recommend thee, my wife, to
pity all my debts; I give 600 francsto the Church, and
900 to the poor. I beg of you, my friends and relations,
not tofollow my career—very unhappy fur both my soul
and body. Pray for the remission of my sins." There
is an engraving of this miracle at the beginning of the
relation. Nicholas Charpentier is represented as stand
ins before the oven with his mouth open, and his twu
companions are looking up to Heaven. All this is
published at Orlean', by authority. The place where
the other miracle occulted is not mentioned. The
paper is entitled " Copy of the most beautiful Miracle
which ever appeared before our eyes." We have bad
announced to us a saint, who for two hundred years
was concealed in a rock. The Saint showed himself
under the form of a white bird perched on a crucifix,
which shone like the sun ; " wishing to catch this little
bird," says the narrator," it flew further off and perched
on a rock, where were inscribed these words, my name
is Adelaide. Since that time the blind recover their
sight—the lame and the sick walk; but the detail of all i
the miracles would be too long." In this manner the
Jesuits and their adherents pretend to make religion
flourish with miraculous crucifixes—refractory dough—
white birds: they disturb weak imaginations, and de-
stroy religious sentiments. They desire to plunge the
people in the grossest ignorance to render them fanatics,
that they may govern them at their ease. By spreading
instruction among them we shall cause this infernal
project to fail.

Florelln. The music is ptincipally by ltossist, and of
urbe well adApted to the c4pabilities of the Lady, who
having studied in the Italian school, has acquired all
the necessary accomplishments to give it due effect.
Indeed, the music is so expressive and sweet through-
out the Piece, that it must command success. The pat t
which she,took afterwards in the duets and quartettos
was equally effective. BRAHMA, in the Turkish Prince,
was in most excellent voice; he was encored in the
battle song. Miss Lova played Lucetta, for the first
time; she is an excellent waiting-maid. The other cha-
racters had no alteration in the cast.

THE KING.

WINDSOR, JAN. The pertinacity with which
some of the Papers cling to the false tumour of his
MAJESTY'S being severely indisposed, furnishes addi-
tional proof how little actual knowledge is possessed by
retrain writers of the subjects upon which they write.—
we mentioned some days since the real nature of his
MAJESTY'S indisposition, and are now enabled to state,
from authority, that his convalescence has since daily
increased. The tales of the KING'S illness being aug.
mented by the anxiety attendant on the recent Ministe-
rial changes, are totally void of foundation.
Yesterday forenoon, the Marquis of LANSDOWN. the
Earl of CARLISLE, Lord BEXLEY, and Mr. HERRIES,
arrived at the Royal Lodge, and had audiences of his
Masan, who received them in the principal drawing
room on the ground floor; after which they left for
London. In the subsequent part of the day, the Duke
pf Wittaltrorou, Earl BATHURST, Viscount MELVILLE,
the Earl of ABERDEEN, Lord ELLENBOROUGH, Mr.
NEL, and Mr. GOULIURN, arrived at the Lodge, and
had audiences of his MAJESTY ; after which they re-
turned to London. At these conferences the formation
of the new Cabinet was definitely arranged.
The floods which have for a fortnight past inundated
the land in the neighbourhood of Windsor are now ra-
pidly subsiding, and in a few days it is hoped the
Thames will resume its former channel; distributions
of coals and other necessaries continue to be made to
the pods er class of sufferers.

MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT.
LOWS Or WI STUILDIG CAMS SWUM BOAT.

Innerseaddell, by Appin, 17th Jan. 1828

Ssa—l am sorry to be obliged to intimate the melancholy account
of the loss of the Stirling steam boat, under my house six miles,
after leaving Fort William this morning. As far as I can learn,
every exertion on the part of the Captain and crew had been done
to save the vessel and passengers, but the gale has been such as
rendered every exertion vain. All on board have been got on shore
in life, except one man, an Englishman, who had been a butler
with Mr. Macdonald of Clanranald, and on his way home to Eng-
land. As Mr. Macdonald of Gleopry, with his two daughters,
were on board, on their way to Edinburgh, Mr. Macdonald had
been so much hurt on landing, that he died at nine o'clock this
night, in consequence of a contuoion on the head. All the rest
of the crew and passengers are in a fair way of recovery. AU that
was possible has been done for the comfort of the shipwrecked suf.
terns, as well as the saving of property. The vessel is a total wreck.

COURT CIRCULAR.

In addition to those of the new Ministers whose names we gave
Itsteday, as having had audiences of the Kiac on Tuesday, the
Earl of ASIVIDMEN and Lord ELLISIOROUGH were also in attendance
at the Royal Lodge, to receive their new appointments. Their
Lordships travelled together, and were the first who arrived at the
Royal Lodge. The Duke of Weumsozost followed soon after.
Lord Macey and Mr. Hammes arrived together. The new Minis-
ters remained at the Royal Lodge till near eight o'clock on Tuesday
evening, expecting a ( lerk of the Council to arrive, to enable them
so bold a Privy Council, but the orders for summoning a Council
had through some omission not been issued. The Ministers did not
arrive in London till 10 o'clock at night, when the dinner given by
the Duke of W111.1.1114354N had been kept waiting for three hours.
Mr. Peas., earl BATHURST, Viscount DILLMLLM, and Mr. Gout.-
seat., returned to town in the same carriage.
Nooe of the new Ministers took possession of their offices yes-
terday, not being yet authorized to act as such, in consequence of
the neglect of summoning a Privy Council to assemble at the Royal
Lodge on Tuesday, to swear them into office before the KING in
Council; the omission to summon a Council rests, it is understood,
with the Home Office.

Sunday last, great interest was excited on the-beach•
to t!- e westward, by the appearance of several tubs of
spirits which were washing on shore ; and on the Chain
Pier, by the landing of tea chests, casks, packages, and
sea chests, which had the appearince of having been
buffetted by the waves for some time.
Duri•ig the tremendous gale on Sunday week, a brig,
bound from Opo: to, having on board 42 passengers
and 17 seamen, was observed by one of our fishing
boats to be in distress. The Captain of the brig hailed
the fishermen, expressing his ignorance of the coast,
and his wish-to make Shoreham harbour. The boat led
the way in the direction of the harbour, followed by the
brig ; it seems, however, that the latter suddenly altered
her course, stood not to sea, and was lost sight of by
the boat. A number of packages, passengers' trunks,
and papers, have since been washed ashore, with arti-
cles that could not have been thrown overboard by de-
sien. As the brig has not since been heard of, a me-
lancholy impression is entertained that the whole of the
unfortunate persons on board, 59 in number, have met
a miserable and untimely grave.

DOVER ELECTION, JAN. 22.

Yesterday-John Halcomb, Esq. arrived here, and in
the evening a very numerous and respectable meeting
of his friends was held at the Royal Oak Inn, when
W. Lankey, Esq. was called to the Chair. Upon the
health of Mr. Halcomb being proposed, it was received
with one simultaneous burst of applause; after which
that Gentleman addressed the meeting at some length,
patticularly relative to the late inquiry in the House of
Commons as to the right of the outdwelling Freemen
voting a' the elections, and having satisfactorily an-
swered the several que,tions proposed to him, sat
down amidst immense applause. Promises of support
then poured in from all quarters, and upon his canvas
to-day he has been equally successful.
This morning a requisition to the Mayor was got up
respectably signed, requesting he would convene a
Common Hall for the purpose of voting a congratu
latory Address to our late worthy Member, E. B.
Wilbraham, Esq. upon his eleaaticm to the Peerage, and
to solicit his son, the Hon. Richard Bootle Wilbraham,
to represent the town in Parliament. The Mayor, John
Shipden, Esq. having apvinted this evening at five
o'clock, the Hall shortly after that hour was filled
nearly to suffocation. An address of congratulation
was moved and seconded, and cat tied luso VOCf j but
upon the second resolution being read as to the invita-
tion to his son, an amendment was moved and seconded
by the friends of Mr. Halcomb, and after much debating
upon both sides, the Mayor put the amendment, and
the original motion to a shrew of h inds, which was
deslared to be in favour of the latter. A vote of thanks
was then proposed to the Mayor f.ir his impartial con-
duct in the Chair, and the meeting was declared to be
dissolved ; but the friends of both parties were requested
to wait and sign the Address to each of them, that to
Mr. Wilbrahatn in t! e Jury mom, and to Mr. Halcomb
in the open Ilall.
