Within a few fret of the winning post, a servant mounted on a
gray hackney of Captain Seyntotres, was standing in the way of the
horses, and Fearnought ran against him with a dreadful concusston;
the race horse had won, but a hurt in his shoulder will prevent hint
ever running again. It was contended that the hone had not
bt'ought the jockey to the weighing stand ; the Stewards decided
that Fearnought won the beat, the jockey having been thrown by
accident, and the horse was unable to bring him to weigh.
So few people never were seen at Slouliey, and booths and other
cate were great sufferers. Mr. and-Mrs. Hughes Ball were on
the Course. _ _ _

Doekeray, who rode the winner, made play all round in the Last
heat, and never was headed.

SINGULAR ALARM.—Sunday. a short time before
the commencement of the sermon, a man was seen in
the gallery of St. Andrew's church, Liverpool, and who,
from his eccentric dress and actions, was evidently de-
ranged. As the attention of the congregation was at-
tracted towards Vie individual, the sexton went to
remove him f,om the church, which he did very quietly.
When the unfortunate maniac reached the stairs, he
ran down very quickly, and the noise hich he made
excited some alarm among the female parr of the
congregation. Just at this moment, either the unfor-
tunate man, or some persoa in the church, cried out
" Fire !" Panic now seized the male as well as the
female part of the congregation, and a general rush
towards the door Cook place. The clergyman exerted
himself to calm the ridiculous fears of turn .cis, an.] to
restore tranquillity and order. He ultimately suc-
ceeded, but not until a considerable number of persons
had made their escape out of the church. Several
females were hurt in the rush, but not seriously, and
Divine Service was resumed.

AMERICAN TRADE.—It appears that the imports into
the United States, from September 30, 1824, to Sep-
tember 30, 1825, amounted to 96,340,075 dollars ; of
these 91,902,512 dollars were in American vessels, zad
but 4437,563 dollars in foreign veisels. The am runt
of exports during the same period was 99.535.383
dollars; of this amount 66 944,745 dollars were de.
mestic articles, and 32,590,948 dollars foreign. Wring
the same reriod the amount of tonnage which entered
int, and departed from the United States stood thus—
Entered, American, 880,754, departed 960,366 ; en-
tered, foreign, 92,927, departed 95,080; of foreign ton-
nage 61,900 were owned by the British.
Friday night, a sudden and most destructive fire
broke out in the house of Mr. James Ede, miller, at
Shellwood, near Reigate, Surrey, by which his dwelling
house and outbuildings were almost instantaneously
burnt to the ground, and the whole of his furniture,
wearing apparel, and books of accounts, together with
a sum of money amounting to upwards of 401. entirely
consumed. Mr. Ede, Pith his family, after being con-
siderably burnt, narrowly escaped with their lives, by
forcing themselves through the chamber window, with
no o:her covering than their night clothes.
ALUACICS IN INDIA—When Sir Juhn MacPherson
was Governor General of India, most of his staff con-
sisted of Scotch Gentlemen, whose names began with
Mac. The Honourable Mr. Fitzroy used to call the
Government house Almack's ; for, said he, " if you
stand in the middle of the court and call Mac, you will
have a head" popped out at every window."
Sr. LEONARD'S, SHOREDITCH.—The decision of the
long agitated question of appointing a Sexton to St.
John's, New Church, at Hiltton, was yesterday decided
as agreed upon, by a Poll at the Old Church. The
boor of beginning lusiness was fixed at nine o'clock in
the morning, a smart contest was expected, but owing
to the strong interest excited on behalf of the successful
Candidate, only one opponent started against him; when,
after polling about two hours, the contest was relin-
quished, and the Churchwarden declared the numbers:
For Matthew Astley . . 74

J. lianneford . _

A Vote of Thanks was passed unanimously to the Churchwarden
