BRIGHTON. &EVIL JIBER 9.

The Ponce Rnonsr returned to the Palace yes-
terday evening at halt past eight o'clock. llis Royal
Highness and suite, after being hinted front the
state barge of the royal yacht, passed from the each
along the brick pavement towards Donaldson's Li.
brarv, through an avenue of people of tome thou-
sand's in number, amidst the waving of haw and
handkerchiefs, and acclamatory hours, which were
heard in all pans of the town. On reaching the Pa-
lace south gate, the REons tinned tumid and
bowed. and the enthusiastic shouts of the populace
increased. Ills Highness never steno:it in better
health and spii its. lie was dressed in a loose blue
coat, white tiows.rs, I.lack stock, and white hat.—
It was exceedingly catin dutitig his Royal Highness's
eacur sion.
Some inteietticg business tool: place at the Town
Hall this morning, 11.. tore Mr. fierj, ant RuNtiiNGroN
and the bench of Magistrates. . Two men, one of
whom had been alprehended for a felony, but in sup-
port of which charge no evidence WAS adduced, end,
consequently, it was dismissed. lodged informations
agkiiist certain persons, not only for gaoling, but for
a 'conspiracy to toil a rung Gentleman of his pro-
perty. The scene of these transactions was in a hired
room, the ..wner of which, a person of good reputa-
tion, appears unfortunately implicated, not in the
conaniacy, nr.r in any other way, as decidedly stated
by the informers, than in having once "r twice par.
taken of the prohibited game himself. There is to
be smother hearing on this affair on Ft iday nest.

DALlltlf-LANZ THZATKIL —List eight Crania's Co.medy of the Doable Gallant was performed. Its re.
eep.i n seemed to prove that the frequency of its re.
peti.itm dining the last season has not exhausted its
attrrcti ns. Mt. Dnwrox's Sir Solomon Sadafr was
admirable ; never was the ludicrous vein ut jealousy
more happily displayed than under his judicions ma.
magemetat. Mr. WALLACK was lively in Carekt: ;
and Mr. limner, as "Dad, afforded much amuse-
ment in the whimsical situations to which he was
consigned. Mrs. ALsoe's Lady Dairty received its
usual portion of applause; as did also Mrs Wirt.
sox's Lady Sadge, old Mrs. MANDV WS Clarinda.
ENO lin Orrito.—Yesterday everting the interest-
ing Melo-dranie of the Devil's Blase was the first
performance. The different characters were, as usual,
well sustained, particularly those performed by Miss
EttLY and Mr. Hoeg. The latter sting with melody
:old cornet taste, snap was encored in several songs.
Tae nzsv Operetta of Di:prises was afterwards p.r.
formed for the second time; and, in consequence el
t peiliirmers becoming better acquainted with ther
resinctive pans, ar.d some slight alterations and cur.
tailisernts, the %slide went uff with much better effect
than on the preceding night. The lively dialogue,
the pointed allusions, the keen sarcasms, and delicate
satire with which this 1 tile rice? abounds, added to
the exquisite humour that pervades the whole, kept
the house in a roar of Laughter from the beginning to
ene end of the representation. Miss KELLY, in the
Part allotted to her, has a Etter scope for the display
of her comic powers than In any other character which
we have ever seen her perform. in many of the hu-
morous passages, particularly where she deals if!
irony and raillery, she reminded us of the unrivalled
Mrs. JORDAN. We have no doubt but that this piece
will be the chief favourite at this house during the
remainder of the season; and are happy to add, that
the Public is indebted for it to the pen of Miss Case-
LOTTE NOOTII, an amiableyoung Lady whose literary
&ruing:eau are wall known in the Lterary

EXECUTION ow DESBAUS AND CRAYOUX,
FOR CONSPIRACY AGAINST THE LIVES
OF THE FRENCH PRINCES.

At eight o'clock, on the morning of the 6th Sep-
tember, Desbaus and Chayoux were informed of
their fate. The hour fixed for their execution was
five o'clock at night. It was necessary to postpone
it thus late, in order that certain detachments of the
Royal Guard, whose presence was necessary, might
have time to arrive from Versailles. The criminals
breakfasted with a good appetite, and took a bottle
of champagne and cup of coffee each. M. Claveau,
the Advocate of these young men, coming unexpec-
tedly to visit them, they reiterated to him their
thanks foi the zeal which he had manifested in their
defence. At their earnest request he has undertaken
to (*tame a memorial to the King in favour of their
comrade Nepveu, whose free pardon they supplica-
ted from his Majesty, as the only favour which, in
their awful situation, they desired. Chayoux, in the ,
course of conversation, recollecting that one of the !
provisions of his sentence ordered his degradation',
from the Legion of Honour-44 To day," lie ex-I
claimed, "is the 6th of September. What a terrible
anniversary ! On the same day I was at the battle
near Berlin, where we lost 120 pieces of cannon.—
Why was I not killed in that battle !" Desbaus
having, during the two last days, earnestly solicited
the privilege of giving the word of command to the
piquet appointed for their execution, expressed great
satisfaction on obtaining it. Both of them promised
to their defender to die like brave men and good
Chi istiano. Ol their own accord they requested that
a Confessor might he sent for, and Abbe Monies,
Almoner of the Conciergerie, accordingly undertook
to see their desires complied with.
When about to set out for the place of execution,
the gendarmes who escorted them wished to bind
their hands. Desbaus repulsed them with great in-
dignation, but was at length calmed by Chayoux,
who said, Let us go and speak to the Lieutenant,
who will sorely spare us this indignity.—Sir," said
he, to the Officer of the Gendarmerie, " we are not
dangerous—we know that our punishment is just—
we submit to it without murmuring." The Lieute-
nant was on this pleased to order that they should,
not be tied. At five o'clock they set out from the
Abbey', in two voitures, each accompanied by an
ecclesiastic. Their countenances continued firm and
assured. At half-past five they arrived at the Plain
of Grenelle. After returning thanks to their conies.'
sari, they rev and embraced. Desbaus, as agreed
upon, gave the fatal word of command, and they
both fell at the same moment. After the execution,
all the troops, accord.ng to military usage, defiled
More the dead bodies, and then returned to their re-
spective barracks.

This morning Mr. STRACEr, accompanied by a
Military Officer, arrived at Lord Cosruotamat's
Office, with dispatches from India.
There was a curious bet made some time ago at the
Whim ?Chem. A Noble Earl took 50 guineas from a
Naval Baronet, to return one guinea for every league
that the l'athce REGENT SllOO4l sail on salt water
within a period of two years. When Hi Royal High-1
n'ss a fortnight ago returned from Brighton without
going to sea, the laugh was against the gallant Ad-
miral ; but now that the Pursce has braved the ocean,
the Nublc Lord is driving to hedge.

RAND ACCIUNTION OF KNIMLEDGIO—A modern

is said to have written in his journal Towards noon
arc passed four leagues to the West of the island of Tr-

Diet..—A duel took place yesterday morning at
seven o'clock, in the Regent's Park, between Lieu-
tenant Colonel P. and Captain S. which, after two
shots each, was amicably settled—the former was
slighily wounded the first fire.
Dun. PREVENTIM—Two gentlemen, one of them
military and the other in the civil department, under
Government, were yesterday brought before the Sit-
ting Magistrate, at Queeu-square, under the follow.
ing circumstances t—On Saturday evening. it seems,
after dining in company with a convivial party, at a
Coffee-house in Chelsea, the two gentlemen ;n goes.
tion, by some accidental circumstance or other, di.
verged into the long exploded doctrine of passive obe- '
dience and non-resistance. The conversation was for
some time carried on between the parties with calin-
nes: and candour, but at length one of the dispu-
tants told the other he was not ft company for
gentlemen, or WMe inch taunting expression.—.
The offended party began wringing 1.16 adversary's
nose, as it he, indeed, expected ron-resistance
but here the old doctrine of Sir Robert Palmer
was completely overturned—there was no passive
obedience to be found muting them I the Gentleman
who had been used, resisted in his turn, and an im-
mediate cr..nthat would have taken place had not the
company present preferred separating the enraged
parties. The matter was then apparently accommo-
dated, and all the party separati d without any further
outward signs of enmity. We understand, however,
that on Monday a message took place, and by some
mean, or other happened to come to the knowledge of
one of the Gentlemen who was of the party, but not
in the dispute at all, and he net seeing the ceremony
nt a duel in so trivial a point of view, felt it his duty
to infot m the worthy Magistrate of what he had reason
to suppose, so late as ten o'clock on Monday night.
Lavender and Gilmore, the Police Officers, were in-
stantly dispatched alter the Gentleman of the Civil
Department, who resides in the neighbourhood of one
of the squares at the West end of the town. whom
they seemed. Pace and Pople were seat after the
Military Gentleman, in the neighbourhood of Pim-
lico. Triey were equally successful in their errand,
though they were obliged to use some finesse before
they netted their bird. On their appearance before
the Magistrate the principals were held tohail, them-
selves in 4300 each, and tau ..tcLies it: 4150 each.

The FAME, of 74 guns, in Dock at Chatham, for
same time past under repair, is found so bad as now
to be otdered to be pulled to pieces.
From the Ist to the 18th of July, there arrived a:
Halifax, from England, Scotland, and Ireland, MS
emigrants; but many of them continue their emigra-
tion to the United States.

A beautiful and interesting girl, Aleut nine years
of age, walking with her mother (one of the visitants)
on the cliff at Margate, on Sunday last, was suddenly
missed, a.id on further search, it was discovered that
she had fallen over the cliff, and the tide being off,
was lyivg dead on the beach below.
A sad accident happened on Friday last,to a poor
man, a labourer in Chatham Dock-yard : he was
stationed at the treenail machinery in the stir mill,
and while at his work, by some accident his sum got
entangled in the wheels, by which it was so much
broken and ',mated, that it was necessary imp,.
uiately to amputate it.
A poor man also lost hi: life on Chatham Hill, in
attempting to stop a post chaise. the horses of which
had set off up the Hill, whilst the post boy was walk-
ing up to ease them ;- when the bar striking the man,
knocked him down. and the wbetls passing over his
body, caused his death.
An unfortunate event occurred in the night of
Friday last, at Mystole, the seat of Sir JOHN FAGG,
Bast. The garden of the mansion having been re-
peatedly robbed of the choicest fruit, the gardener
and another servant with fire arms, were set to watch
with a view to detect the depredators, when in the
night above mentioned three men, habited as sailors,
wire observed getting over the wall, upon which the
gardener fired at them. and wounded one so dange-
ronsly that his life is despaired of.
In our Paper of the 18th 'ult. the Strweid of one
of the Milford Packets was stated to here leaped
overboard in a fit of intoxication, and lost his lite.—
We have since learnt that the imputation of inebriety
against the unfortunate young man is quite unfound-
ed. It appears that as the vessel was sailing down
Waterford harbour, he was forward 67.ing the guy
tackle, when, by a sudden lurch t the ship, he till
overboard, and before the vessel ceuld be brought to,
the boat gut tint, and the body pick:d up, the vital
:perk was extinct.
ISlanday the Marna and Sheriff of Catiterbttry,l
with a small party of their filends, gave a dinner, i
consisting of veal, mutton, and ro:i►.t beef, to the
Brothers and Sisters resident at St. Nicholas Hospi•
tal, liarbledoen, at which the MAYOR presided.—
After the cloth was temased. and, the happy old
Mks bad plentifully regaled' them.elves with ale and
punch, and a Itberal supely c i snuff wed tobacco, the
M.►soa distributed amongst then; the property Sal
recovered or. the late Mrs. Poseritte chat itable
gilt. Tie Macon also paid the Brothers and Sisters,
being twenty-four in number, a three shilling piece
each, the of an unknown friend ; and divided
forty sl•itlirgs amongst there. the gift et another
friend. The aensal stipend of the Members of this
Heepital being but small, the berevolence extended
to them on this occasion was very acceptable, and
most gratefully received, affording a rich treat to the
Gentlemen who witnessed their happicess and grati-
tude. The united ages of the thirteen Brothers, is
nine hundred and seventy years, and of the eleven
Sisters, eight hundred and fifty.six years, making an
average of upwards of 75 years in each person.
GRAND SAILING Meech.--Sel:U.SdAy the prize
given by the Gentlemen of the London Yacht Club
was sailed for by the following Pleasure Vessels
steered by the ownerti, vie.—The Mel maid, Captain
GEMIOSS Guhs•row ; the Petrel, Captain Ham : and
the Produce, Captain. NerrLeroLn : the boats were
started from Blackwell by signal. It was nearly
calm fOr tome time after starting, and until they were
off Woolwich, scarcely had steerage way ; a light
air then sprung up, and the Produce past the Petrel
and Mermaid, and succeeded in getting round the
distance vessel, off the lower part of Gravetend. The
vessels were attended by many pleasure yachts, and
were saluted as they owed Woolwich and Nord:fleet.
