Verified accounts have been received at Ports-
mouth of the melancholy fate of the Officer and Bri-
tish crew in charge of the slave brig Volcano do Sol,
which was captured two years since by one of the
cruizers under Sir GEORGE COwita's orders. The
MORGIANA, on arriving with a slave vessel at Bahia,
on the coast of Brazil, received a confirmation of the
former report of the murder of the master's mate,
and the whole of the British seamen, which was per-
petrated in cold blood, off the port of St. Salvador ;
and so soon as the slaves were landed the vessel was
sunk. It appears that one of the crew was a native
African, who having been employed as a supernu-
merary on board the King's ships, when on the Afri-
can station, was put on board the prize, and being a
man of athletic form, he appeared much too tempt.l
ing an object to share the fate of his European mess-
mates, on account of the high price which he bore as
a slave. He was, therefore, not murdered with the
rest of the crew, but sold as one of the slave cargo,
and sent into the interior, whence, in the course of
traffic, he became transferred to other masters, and
at length he met with one of the Of of the MOE-
GIANA, who he recognised as having belonged to the
TARTAR, and to him he related the circumstances of
this horrid transaction. Captain FINLAISON was, in
consequence, taking every means to urge the Portu.
guese Authorities to investigate the melancholy oc-
currence; and we trust the result will appear, as it
often has done, that, by the interposition of Pawn-
DENCE, the avarice of man will prove the means of
leading to his condign punishment fur his greater
crimes. And it is hoped that those friends of huma-
nity who have lately done so much to destroy this
disgusting inhuman traffic, will persevere, and insist
that the parties concerned, directly or indirectly, shall
be tried by the laws of Portugal ; and whoever the
owner of the Volcano do Sol may be, though he
should prove the Governor of a Province, he may be
called on to account for the slaves, as well as the
Portuguese seamen, of the late slave brig.
The Dublin Theatre closed for the season on Tues-
day, with an Address spoken on ta occasion by Mr.
FARREN. It promises several improvements in the
recess, and boasts that there, for the first time in an
Irish Theatre, has a revered and gracious Monarch
received the enthusiastic and affectionate greetings
of a loyal people.
Covent-Garden Theatre, during the recess, has been
entirely re-painted and newly decorated ; it will open
on Monday, the 24th, when Mr. Yourio, who has re-
newed his engagement, will make his first appearance
in Hamlet. Several new Pieces and new performers
are spoken of as forthcoming, amongst the latter ano-
ther vocal star, Miss WALPOLE, from Ireland, as the
Widow Brady; and that favourite Comedian on ;Ile
Bath stage, Mr. DRINKWATER, as Meadows.
A short time since a man named John Dunn, com-
monly called Jack Stout, was apprehended in Lon-
don by a constable belonging to Major 011onoghue's
establishment of Police in Meath, charged with being
one of the two persons who murdered the late Mr.
William Cruise, of Belgard Castle, County of Dublin.
The trial of Dunn came on at Athy, on Friday
se'nnight, when, after a long and patient investi-
gation, the wretched man was found Guilty, and re-
ceived sentence of death accordingly.
The unfortunate man that was executed on Mon-
day last, at Flint, was born in the year 1795. It ap-
pears that the wretched criminal was urged to the
perpetration of the horrid act for which he suffered,
by outrageous passion, to which he was subject from
his youth, and not from any malicious motives, which
he disclaimed to the Clergyman who attended him
to the last. He met death with placid firmness, which
strongly corroborates that opinion. His conduct from
the time he received sentence to the time of execution
was exemplary : he appeared to be very penitent, and
had fully resigned himself to the awful scene which
was to take place.
The name of the poor woman who was forced into
the sea at Dunleary, by the pressure of the crowd,
on the day of his Maizterv's embarkation, is Bon).
Her son was under sentence of death for the robbery
of a man at Rockbrook, Rathfarnham. Her agita-
tion and anxiety was so great that her senses had
literally failed her; her petition, however, reached
his MAJESTY, and her son's life has in consequence
been saved.

The owners of the most wretched cabins along the
road to Powerscourt exhibited some laurel or other de-
coration on the memorable day of the KING'S visit.—
A respectable citizen passed through a little hamlet
about eleven o'clock on that day. He found an honest
couple in discussion as to what they should do for a
blue flag. After some thought, the man cried out—
" I'll put up my hankitcher," pointing to his neck-
cloth. The wife approved of the expedient, and the
citizen was asked when the KING would pass? "In
two hours," was the reply. " Then, Judy," said poor
Pat, " You will have time to wash the hankitcherr

DUNK, of Bray, an intelligent butcher, and a Mr.
BROWNE, were amongst those who fell in with his MA-
JESTY on Monday se'nnight, and accompanied him to
Powers-court. Duni, who had a-flag, attracted his
MAJESTY'S notice, and the Sovereign was pleased to
ask what inscription it had upon it? DUNN answei ei,
" May your Majesty live long to be a friend to Ire-
land."—" That Ishall be as long as Hive," said his MA-
JESTY, is a manner the most gracious and emphatic.
A GENUINE lama BoLL.—The porter of a Dublin
grocer was brought up by his master on a chlrge of
stealing chocolate, which he could not deny. Upon
being asked to whom he sold it? the pride of Patrick
was greatly wounded. To whom did I sell it ?"
says Pat; " why, does he think I took it to sell?"
"Then, Sir," said the Magistrate, " what did you do
with it?"—" Do wid itr rejoined the culprit, ex-
tremely offended with his Worship for persisting in
his insulting suspicions; " since you must know,"
said he, " we made tea of it!"

MATCH AGAINST TIME.

A tradesman of Shrewsbury, who weighs full ten stone, under-
took for a wager, on Tuesday last, to ride his pony, rising four
years old, a distance of sixty-two miles in nine hours, which was
won nineteen minutes and a half within the given time, without
apparently distressing the animal.

Saturday, Jeremy Garfield was indicted at the Oki
Bailey Sessions, for exposing to sale twelve silver
spoons, with the forged stamp of the Goldsmiths
Company thereon; whereby be subjected himself to
fourteen years transportation. The prisoner pleaded
guilty. He was then capitally indicted on the 55th
Cleo. 111. for making counterfeit stamps to the like-
ness and similitude of those used by the Goldsmith?
Company. To this indictment he pleaded not guilty,
but his trial was postponed to a future day, when it
is understood no evidence will be offered on the part
of the Crown, the prisoner having pleaded guilty to
the minor offence.

The Insolvent Debtors' Court will sit in the Ex-
chequer Chamber on Wednesday and Thursday next
for the regular dispatch of business. The next sit-
tings of the Court are fixed for Friday and Saturday,
the 28th and 29th inst. and Monday and Tuesday,
the Ist and 2d of October. There are 30 cases ap-
pointed for each.of these four days, but the Court will
inquire only into those which shall not be opposed.
Those that shall be marked " opposed" are to stand
over until Friday and Saturday, the 12th and 13th
of October, which will be occupied exclusively by
the consideration of these adjourned cases.
The late Thomas Fuller, so celebrated for his great
memory, had once occasion to attend on a Committee
of Sequestration sitting at Waltham, in Essex. Ile
got into conversation with them, and was much corn-
mended for his powers of memory. " 'Tis true,
Gentlemen," observed Mr. Fuller, " that fame has
given me the report of being a memorist ; and, if you
please, I will give you a specimen of it." The Gen-
tlemen gladly accepted the proposal ; and, laying
aside their business, requested Mr. Fuller to begin.
"Gentlemen," said he, " you want a specimen of
my memory, and you shalLhave a good one. Your
Worships have thought fit to sequestrate a, poor but
honest parson, who as my near neighbour, and com-
mit him to prison. The unfortunate man has a large
family of children; and, as his circumstances are but
indifferent, if you will have the goodness to release
him out of prison, I pledge myself never to forget the
kindness whik I live." It is said that the jest had such
an influence on the Committee, that they immediately
restored the poor clergyman.
COIN EICHANCII4 31mm-Lmes, SM. 17.---Our market was
very largely supplied with Wheat to-day, from F.ssea, Keor,
and Suffolk, the chief part of which consisted of this year's
growth, the quality of which was tolerably fine ; yet, notwith-
standing the unsettled state of the weather, the sales were very
heavy, and Friday's prices could not be obtained by full ss. per
quarter; but what was disposed of was at an advance of full 2s.
per quarter on last Monday's quotation. Barley, Beans, and
White Peas, are considerably dearer ; and Grey leas are la. per
quarter higher than on this day senutglit, but are 2s. per quar-
ter lower than on Friday. The Oat trade was heavy, at an ad-
vance of Cs. per quarter on last Munday's prices.—Current
prices as under :
