MARGATE, JULY 27.

The Public Breakfast at Dandelion, on Wednesday,
exceeded any thing of the kind we have witnessed
for years, at such an early season : upwards of 700
persons, of the first distinction, were present, among
whom we noticed Lady lanowts, Lady ILFORD, the
Hon. Miss BURTON, the Officers of the Stirling Mili-
tia, of the 91st, &c. &c. The regularity and excel-
lence of the country dances reflected much credit on
the Master of the Ceremonies, Mr. CHARLES BERNARD.

TANDEM Cum—The second meeting of the 18th
Hussar Tandem Club took place on Saturday. These
military fehus left Deal in the following order :
Captain CLEMENTS—Captain ELLis—Captain JONES—Captain
TVRING-Captain JOHNSON.
We understand two of the most favourite whips
were prevented joining the cavalcade from indisposi-
tion. The above charioteers drove from Deal through
Sandwich, to Dandelion. After partaking of the plea-
sures of this elegant and rural spot, they paraded se-
veral times through the principal streets of Margate
before they drew up to a sumptuous dinner, provided
by Captain TURING, at Kidman's.

Tlie replacing of the stones on the church spire has
commenced, and we expect that a few weeks will see
its completion, and the restoration of this beautiful
and picturesque addition to our scenery.

A duel was to have taken place on Tuesday se'n-
night, between two Officers quartered at Maidstone,
which was prevented by the interference of the Peace
Officers. The parties were taken before a Magistrate
and bound in securities to keep the peace.

Lieutenant LEVER, who was wounded in a duel
with a Mr. KNYVETT, in the neighbourhood of Dor-
chester, on Friday se'nnight, died of his wound on
Monday, and a Coroner's Jury has delivered a verdict
of wilful murder against Mr. K. who has absconded.
The parties were nearly related.
The real name of the gallant defender of Ciudad
Rodrigo, is KEUAGHTY, a native of Ireland.
The disaster which happened on board the REPULSE
man of war, off Toulon, has been greatly exagge-
rated. A letter from on board the Bombay, dated
May 23, and which ship was in company with the
Repulse when the untortunate accident occurred,
states, that seven men and one boy were killed, and
nine men wounded.

The following is a striking instance of the increased
I value of timber :—ln the year 1565, the inhabitants
of Lewes resolved on pulling down their Town-house,
or Session-house, and rebuilding it ; and for that pur-
pose they purchased 75 tons of timber, at 2s. Bd, per
ton ! The timber taken from the Hall now pulling
down is valued at from 3s. to 4s. per foot.
The growing crops of wheat, a Correspondent in-
forms us, look remarkably well in the countiee of
Herts, Bucks, Bedford, Lincoln, Nottingham, Nor-
ifolk, Suffolk, and Essex, promising fair for an abun-
dant crop ; and the store granaries are remarkably
full of all kinds of corn at Norwich, Yarmouth, Bos-
ton, Lincoln, and Nottingham ; which cause the
country markets to drop fast in price. It is generally
. understood at the Corn-Exchange, that there are at
this time not less than 300,000 quarters of Wheat in
the country.
Notwithstanding the return of confidence in the
commercial world, which we have noticed, and which
continues undisturbed, the Funds experienced yester-
day an unexpected and still unaccounted-ior depres-
sion. The Omnium was again at 1 per cent. discount,
and Consols left off for money, at 68}, and for the
August account at 69.
The number of bankruptcies between the 26th of
December, 1809, and the 23d of June, I SlO, as an-
nounced in the London Gazettes, amounts to 671.

Wednesday, the sptltt was greatly superior to what
has been experienced here for several years past.—
The Town Plate was run for with much spirit, pro-
ducing three excellent heats, in the last of which Di-
mity and Mr. Prince's colt came in neck and neck.—
The circumstance of Little Jack falling at the turn of
the course, dismounting his rider, and running com-
pletely off the ground, operated as a temporary draw-
back on the amusements ; but the rider fortunately
sustained no serious injury. Mr. Addy's St. George
won the Sweepstakes by something more than a
length.
Thursday, three rood heats were run, for the Ste-
ward's Plate.—Besides the match mentioned in the
list, another, for 50gs. was run•br Mr. Lee's bay
horse against Mr. Selwyn's bay mare—three heats—
won by the former. The sport of this day was excel-
lent on the whole, much superior even to that of the
foregoing.
On the return from the races on Wednesday even-
ing, a distressing accident occurred in the upper part
o Moulsham. A man, being rode over, had his
thigh broken, and received a severe wound on the
forehead. Sir Thomas Leonard, Bart. who happen-
ed to be passing at the time, humanely ordered every
' attention to be paid to the unfortunate sufferer, and
by his means surgical assistance was immediately
procured.

Yesterday, an interesting looking young man was
charged at the Pubic Office, Hatton Garden, by a
young female, with robbing her of Bank Notes, value
R 27, and most of her wardrobe, with which he was
proceeding to Dover, but was brought back by the
vigilance of the officers. He was remanded for re-
examination.
The Earl of HARRINGTON'S porter dropped down
dead on Tuesday night, in his Lordship's Hall, while
trimming the lamp. He was only thirty-five years
of age.
BELL-RINGING.—As m any arguments have been held
in various parts of the kingdom, respecting the weight
of the two great peals of ten bells at St. Mary-le-Bow
Church, London, and St. Peter's Cathedral, at York,
(generally called the Minster), we have had the
weight of each bell, in each peal, handed to us from
our Correspondent, J. P. and when founded, viz. the
fine peal of ten bells at St. Mary-le-Bow Church,
Cheapside, London, were cast in the year 1762, and
opened, on the 4th 4y of June, by the London Col-
lege Youths ; and the noble grand peal of ten at York
Minster, were cast at the same Foundry, at White
Chapel, London, in the year 1765, and are allowed
to be the primest ring of bells in the world, and opened
on the 12th day of August by the St. Peter's City
Youths, from Norwich, with 1600 chaagea of Bob
Royal.
