Steious..se M./res.—The following singular matches for
thirty sovereigns, with an extra bet of forty to twenty, that
the performer would complete the whole, was undertaken

fortune. It was to go au foot twenty-two miles ln four
hours, to trot a horse saddled fourteen miles within en hour,
and to drive • horse in harness foarteen miles within en
boor. The two horses to be the bona fide property of the
rider, who rode under twelve stone. The first match was

sex, over five miles of a circle. The first five miles was
done in 42 min. 6 sec.; the second in 48 min. 10 sec. ;

There is at present residing in Brighton, a lady of great
beauty and accomplishments, possessed of • quality which
puts out of all distance the fame of the celebrated Mr„
Doublehangs. This extraordinary and singul,r ttco•ty
arises from a peculiar formation of tls= tongue, whit!' is
separated to the root. in a longitudinal direction, and ac-
tually forms a double longue. Not the slightest inconve-
nience is felt from this exuberant gift of nature. With this
desirable and admirable addition to she organ of domestic
comfort, this lady is enabled to afford entertainment to her
friends beyond the power of any ventriloquist, or indeed of
conception. From the personal charms else possesst s, as
well as a highly endowed mind, she has had many suitors.
none of whom have retired from paying homage, owing to
1 the effects of the extra clapper hung in this enchanti g
belle. bbe possesses two vetoes: one exceedingly clear,
sweet, and harmonious, allowing her to sing with great
effect; the other so exquisitely thrilling, that it must have
been bestowed on her for no other purpose than to lisp the
still small voice of love. With this voice she imitates ex-
actly the notes of many birds, piping like a bullfinch, sing-
ing as a canary ; what is most remarkable, hi r mother was
deaf and dumb.— (Brighton Gazelle.)
FIRES nets 100*ns:ea.—About three o'clock this
mori.ing an alarming fir." broke out at the house of Mr.
Yeoman, eating-house-keeper, No. 28, East Smithfield,
which threatened destruction to the surrounding neigh-
bourlicod ; but by the prompt aerial of the firemen
with their engines, it was confined within the limits of
the building in which it began, and which wrs entirely
destroyed. A young woman in endeavouring to esi-ape
from the house, through a skylight, lacerated her th,igh
in a dreadful manner, The dimes were so fierce, that the
front of the Leith and tilnegow wharf opposite was scorch-
ed, and much anxiety excited for the valuable property
deposited in these pr. rif sirs. The unfortunate occupant
of the house destroyed is not insured.
This morning about one o'clock, the neighbourhood
of Holborn, was again thrown into great consternation
by the alarming cry of ' Fire.' A body of smoke was
observed issuing from the first floor window of Mr. Van-
develde. a boot and sticemrlier, near Ureat Turnstile;
but the occupants not !Irving retired to rest, by great ex-
ertion on their part, and by the assistance of the firemen,
who were quickly oo the spot, the fire was subdued
without extending beyond the room in which it broke
oi.t. Mr. V. it appeared, had incautiously placed the
candle near the curtains 4)14 bed, which ranght lire, and
speedily communicated to the surrounding articles.
'the houses adjoining are of very old construction with-
out party rya's. and had mischief not been thus early ar-
rested, ten or twelve houses in that neighbourhood, must
have Linen a prey to the flames.

so few buyers, that the terms of Monday are hardly sup-
ported ; and Irish Oats are cheaper. Thu floor trade Is very
