COLLL'CTANEA.

The King of Bavaria is said to have it in clutem.,:a:::in
to establish professorships of Protestant theology in the Univers ty
of Monies. The population of Munich is rapidly increasing, and
is at present supposed to exceed 92,000.—ilesubtargh Reporre.r.
Madlle Sontag and M. Laurent have armn;A thole
differences, and this young lady, whos* complaisant medical atten-
dants declared that she could not venture to appear on the stage fur
several months, has sufficiently recovered her voice to appear at
the Italian theatre this week.—Paris l'Jper.
ExTKAORDINARY ONION.—Mr. Pogmore, of the
Flying Horse Inn, New London-road, Sutton, has this week eahi-
bited an onion, the largest we ever saw. It weighs one pound two
ounces, and measures. in circumference, 15 inches and three quar-
ters. The season has been, as we have noticed in a form. r Paper,
most propitious to the vegetable world —MeedeffieLl Courier.
The inhabitants of St. Bride's parish, Fleet-street,
were treated last night by the ringing of the steeple hells, the noise
of which prevented a good deal of 'relish gossip from being heard.
and kept thew awake, who at a reasonable hour retired to rest.
An arrangement has been made, with the cAneurrenee
of the managers, for the future police of the Theatr: under the
new system. We understand that ladies of a certain description,
who use improper language or trherwise annoy the audience, will
be handed out and denied future admission, and that the old bro-
thel keepers, who, at one of the theatres at least, last year. were
allowed to infest the lobbiv, will not be allowed, under any pre-
tence, to enter the theatre,. Four policemen will be stationed
nightly at ach theatre. They will carry a prbited list of Meuse-
dont. amongst which are the tollooing—that they shall rend..r
every assistance to persona requiring th.ir sid in the preservation
of order, and refuse fees or pre.ents of every description.
V a Tit IDE. —A letter from Havannali, doted the
21st of July, states, that in the harbour there were many cases of
yellow fever ; hut on the above, or in the city, very little sickness,
except among the unhappy exiles from Mexico. who were dying in
great numbers. The slave trade was going on to a great extent.
The letter says—`• A slave vessel arrived yesterday from Africa.
The ship Fame. of twenty guns. baa arrived on the coast of this
island from Africa, and landed .:06 slaves : she lost 600 slaves by
sickness !"

SI. AVE H ir)vrtNG.—A letter front Beaufort, in Sure&
Carolina, says, that two armei patties—one consisting of four, and
She other of five persons, from the town, set out on Alond.se tight
last, in pursuit of a gang of runaways on our island, for the ap-
prehension of whom large rewards were offered. Tsey encoun-
tered each other its the dark, stn the road, ab ut a mile trom
town, and as it was unknown to each party that another was out.
with a similar object, titer challenging each other, a gun was
discharged on one side, answered by a general fire from the either,
which was returned, and both parties retreated, under the impres•
aim that they were engaged with a superior tom ut runaways!
Three persons were wounded on each side, six in all. The wounds,
we believe, are nut dangerous, and it no harm had been done, the
affair would have been highly ludicrous.—New York Paver.
STA UNC II 8.% RG N Elo4.—An American Paper tells
a story of two girls who Came to town to rig themselves, and after
ckeepertirag in twen'y shops, called at the Post-office, where they
found a letter for each. " Flow much?" " Twelve and a half
cents each." " That the lowest ?" " Yes, uncle Sam nely.:r
conies down." " Co ask your uncle if he'll let us have them at
ten cents—we'll take both."
