LOYAL OEORGIAN CLUB.

We observe that the intended Meeting, whereat it
was also intended to disclose the plan of the " Loyal
Georgian Society," was not held yesterday. The
Club, therefore, remains still unformed ; and probably
will remain so, until Mr. O'Connell comes back from
circuit. We have not been able to discover one soli-
tary individual now in the city, who approves of the
projet. For ourselves we disapprove wholly of clubs ;
we never could satisfy ourselves that they were service-
able for any public object-.—we believe they are of pub-
lic detriment ; but they answer the views of corpora-
tors and others whose interests are usually opposed to
the public interest. This Loyal Georgian Club, with
its six dinners per annum, combines something ludi-
crous with the vicious principles ofclubs in general.—

On this occasion one must observe, that this writer
should be more congratulated for the felicity of
his fortune, than applauded for the purity of his prin-

reliction of duty who blows hot and cold in the same
short sentence.—(Dublin Evenin' Post.)

PHILADELPHIA, :I CLY 30.••••131.711LIC IMPROVEMENTS.
Notwithstanding the pressure of the times, our public
improvements in Philadelphia, progress with consider-
able rapidity. The two market houses in High-street,
extending from sixth-street to eighth, will soon be 4-
pitriffireltis 'Ueda -11111faliiiititre4;
which is tq connect the common sewer in Dock-street,
with that dear the Penitentiary, and another which is
to extend *Odes the north-eastern public square. The
dam of the Schuylkill, which raises the water between
nine and ten feet, and gives the most extensive water
power in the United States, is nearly completed : and
cast iron pipes hare been laid in several streets, in place
of the wooden cor.duits by which the water was former-
ly distributed through the city.
There are hut few prirme houses erecting, an
episcopal church in Southwark, is the only place of
worship founded this year. The Presbyterian church
on Washington-square, which will be the most elegant
religious edifice in the city, is so far completed that
the congregation assemble in the prayer-room ; and so
much of the northern portico of the Hank of the United
States has been raised, as spews that the building, if
the southern front were finished in like style, would
be the principal ornament lu Philadelphia.—(Ussion.)

ELEGANT INIPILOVEMET IN TRAVELLING.—The Steam
boats Connecticut and Fulton, on the Sound, have on
board a well chosen Library, of 800 latest Publications,
for the use of their Passengers. This excellent arrange.
went will render it unnecessary for Gentlemen or Ladies
to take volumes in their trunks. We learn the North
River Steam boats intend to follow thisexample.—(Ncw
Fork Evening Post.)

The proposed excursion of the Steam-ship around Long
Island, offers to our citizens a most novel, agreeable and
healthy recreation. As opportunity will be afforded
and particularly to ladies, of having a view of the ocean's
expanse, the rising and setting of the sun, and of many
other objects of poetical and agreeable contemplation
no where to be found but at sea. The elegant atcom-
modatious of the ship, her size (being 7.30 tons) and her
perfect security in,all winds and weathers, are advan-
tages seldom if ever before offered to those whom curio-
sity, pleasure or health may induce to take the excursion
The Robert Fulton is amply provided with every comfort
and convenience of a large hotel, and it is confidently
believed that no opportunity ever before occurred, em
bracing so many appreciable objects, at so trifling an
expence.—(lbid.)
A Cvaz FOR POISON NT AaszNic.—ln Ole Schoharic
Republican, of the IS July, there is a very in;nnte ac-
count by Doctor J. Converse, of his treatment of a per-
son who had swallowed hale a tea spoon full of white
arsenic. A persoa by din inane of John Smit'i, was
confined in the gaol Sejpipprie County, on a charge;
which, if made out against him, would send hi n tothe
State prison for life. To get rid of his punishment, it
appears he determined to destroy his life, and with that
view, swallowed the poison above mentioned.
Dr. Converse determined to try the virtue of charcoal,
and it appears that the-experiment has been seceessful.
The account he gives of .the treatment of the ease is as.
follows :
" Determined to pursue the direction there laid down,

[ THE ROYAL VOYAGE FRON IRELAND.

(PROSE TILE DVDLIN MORNING POST, SEPT. 11.)

The Royal fleet, as we announced in a former pub--
liration, sailed on Friday, after two o'clock, P. M. under
a light breeze from the S. W. by W. and stood down
the Channel. It blew very f-esh on Saturday. Sir W.
Curtis returned to King's-town harbour on that day,
having escorted the Royal squadron to sea, the wind
then blowing directly against it. The following is
the latest account of the squadron :
King's-Town, Two o'Clock,

schooner has just entered our harbour, which,
sailed on Saturday evening (ram Milford Haven ; the
Captain states, that the entire of the Royal squadron
hail anchored in that safe refuge a very short time be-
fore his departure. One of the vessels (a brig) had
suffer. d much in the gale ; but the Captain above-men-
tioned, states, that the Royal lieorge had not experi-
enced the most trifling injury.
MILFORD, SEPTEMBER 11.
The Royal squadron, with the King, sailed this
morning about six (o'clock, and was clear of St. Ann's
Head about eight o'clock, a. in. The wind being about
west, we do not think it possible to get round the land,
therefore they may run up the Bristol Channel.
Another letter of the same date, says :
At five, a. m. left this road his Majesty the King,
with his saptadron, consisting of 16 sail of ships, brigs,
and cutters; wind at W. N. W., moderate breeze.- Ele-
ven, a. m. wind at W., and every appearance of a

BRISTOL, SEPTEMBER 12.

The Wellington packet arrived in this port this
morning, from Dablin, and saw the Royal squadron
yesterday morning, at ten o'clock, about eight or ten
miles from the mou►h of 31ilforil Haven, standing across
the Channel, with the wind at W. S. W.
Plymouth, Tuesday, Sept. 11.
This morning arrived the eamelion briE of war,
from lieland, one of the Royal squadron, which she
left en F; iday last in the Bristol Channel, wind blow-
ing hard. His Majesty, with the remainder of the
squadron, may be hourly expected, shouldohe have
not borne away for the Welch Coast, and landed there.
Since the arrival of the Camelion, his Majesty's ship
Lee, one of the same fleet has put in here. Left the
Royal squadron to the westward.

In consequence of the resignation of Sir Robert
Baker, the Office of Chief Magistrate was yesterday
afternoon conferred upon Richard Birnie, Esq. by com-
mand of his Majesty, through Lord Sidmouth. Mr.
White, of the Queen-square Police-office, we under-
stand, is to be third slagistrate at Bow-street.
Nineteen of his Majesty's horses, with their grooms,
have arrived from Ireland. and the Royal carriages ate
on their way to town.
The Regulator, Portsmouth coach, brought to town,
as a present to the King, a very fine turtle, weighing
upwards of 500 weight. It came in the Tartar frigate,
from St. Helena.

The statement we gave in our paper respecting the

A Correspondent of a cotemporary Journal states
as follows t—A gentleman just returned from France.
thinks it a duty he owes to his countrymen, to acquaint
them, by every possible means that, in consequence of
a law passed very recently, no mare, once landed. in
France, under whatever circumstances, can be Pewm'.
barked. A similar law bas long been in Atte re-
specting entire horses and still continues set', The
above gentleman was detained at Calais nearly a fort-
night, in the hope of obtaining some mitigation of this
unjust act. by a petition addressed to the Director-tle-
neral of the Customs, at Paris, but in this he was dis-
appointed, his answer being that the law could not be
infringed in his favour. It may be super/isms to re-
mark, that the law now existing has a particular pros-
pect to the detentbn of English mares, by which
France is desirous of improving her breed of horses.
The English, genetally, appear ignorant of this 'law :

Auscoove.—An Englishman, who, attracted by
the amenity of the climate, wished to fix his residence
in Naples, desired his banker to look out for a villa for
him, which was done, and the gentleman regularly
installed in his purchase : the nest day, however, be
came in mach burry and alarm to his banker, to say,
he was determined to be off, for a fellow bad assailed
him with a claim for 12,000 crowns, which he iirbre
bad been lent balf-a dozen years ago, though tee poor
Englishman was scarcely a mouth old in Italy. • How
many witnesses has he got to prove it ? said-the banker.
No less than ten. What is to be done ? Acknowledge
having received the money. Acknowledge the debt ?
Certainly, and we will get BP whimsies to• swear that
they saw you repay it. This was decisive; for the
law-suit was settled by a simple rejoieder, and meet-

HAYMARKET NEW THEATRE.—This delightful scene. •
of rational amusement was last night crowded to tea-
ness the representation of The Marriage of Figarei.
The manner in which this performance was got np does
great credit to the taste and ingenuity of the Proprie-
tors, and we hope will be rewarded with the success
which it deserves. As we have but little time and iipacs
on the present occasion, we shall take a future opportu-
nity of expressing our feelings with regard to the admi-
rable manner in which the various parts were stietainett,
an(' by pointing odt the individual passages wherein the
different performers excelled. Miss CAREW is, we think,
deserting of every encouragement, and thoneh her suc-
cess is doubtless great, we expect and hope it will soon
be greater.

The enclosure of the Steyne at Brighton, which
was in rapid progress, met on Saturday an n texpectel
interruption. The fishermen have had he privilege
of drying their nets on this lawn, and as hey allege of
drawing their boats upon it, when the weattser or the
tide render their removal necessary. For these privileges
they ground their claim upon a document which they s ty
they have in their possession, so far back as the reign
of Austen Blixabeth. They thesefere demanded a
gate to the Tenor, of snfficient width to admit their boats
within the enclosure ; and, this being refused, they
dragged and placed two of their largest boats to the
lawn, and caused a suspension of the work. To avoid
dispute and litigation a committee on the part of the
fishermen, and another on that of the Commissioners
have been named to adjust the existing differences, and
the fence work is again going on.
A gentlonan of very fickle disposition made so many
changes in a mansion which he was erecting, and
asked the advice of Ms friends so frequently about the
arrangement, that it seemed a miracle that it was
ever finished at all, At length, however, it was com-
pleted, and nothing but the giving it a name remain-
ed to be done: this was a sore puzzle, till a wag told
him if he wanted an appropriate appellation he could
give it him. *hat is it? The House of Correctiod.

f the charge in the present case been abandoned, there
vas but little doubt the law would have taken its full
curse ; for the repeated and violent robberies in the
eighbourhood where the offence bad been committed,

POLICE.

M•NSION-HOI:BI:•ZITENSITDSROPLIPTING IN THE
will be recollected that last week two
persons, Jacob and Rachel ',aroma, Jews from Holland,
were brought up before the Lord Mayor, on a charge
of baring robbed the warehouse of Mr. Lester, wool-
len-draper in Leadenhall-street, of a large piece of
woollen-cloth. It was charged that they had been to
the warehouse before, representing themselves as fo-
reign traders, and desiring to look at certain goods,
tut bought none. On that occasion a piece of wool-
len cloth, of the value of 30 guineas, bad been missed.
On the second time they visited Mr. Lester's ware-
Louse, the porter suspected that the female prisoner
on her going out Lad something about her, and brought
.her back, when she dropped a large piece of woollen-
cloth. It excited much astonishment that she should
be able to secure so large a piece of goods, but an
apron, with hooks affixed to it, has been subsequently
found in the warehouse close to where the prisoner
stood. Tbis apron is so formed as to retain with secu-
rity any article that might be attached to it, though of
considerable weight. The two prisoners were brought
up a second time for examination, when Forrester, the
_officer, stated that be had succeeded in finding out the
lodging of the two prisoners, at No. 7, Finsbury-mar-
ket, where he had discovered a large assortment of
goods, consisting of silks, valuable shawls, scarfs, and
. pieces of cottons, with the marks obliterated. The
office was filled with shopkeepers, who stated that tlisy
bad missed goods in an extraordinary manner; but
few of them could recognise the prisoners : one of
them, an extensive silk-maisufacturer, who had been
robbed to a great amount, identified one of the shawls
found at the prisoners' lodgings as his property, and
Lad no doubt that the remainder of the shawls were
also his, but could not swear to them, as the marks
were taken off, and there were others of the same pat-
tern, nor could he recognize the prisoners. He stated,
however, that since the statement of the case bad been
published in the newspapers, a number of the trade
had taken stock, and had discovered most serious de-
ficiencies, which they did not doubt had been occa-
sioned by the depredations of shoplifters of no ordina-
ry description.
The LORD Mavoa thought it would be unnecessary
to multiply cases against the prisoners, and that the
charge wade by Mr. Lester would be-sufficient to send
the prisoners to take their trial upon. The two pri-
soners were therefore committed for trial on the charge
of having robbed Mr. Lester's warehouse, and theyar-
ties bound over to prosecute.
On the examination of the two prisoners, nearly all
the known receivers of stolen goods in the city were
about the avenues, and such a degree of anxiety upon
the case was evinced amongst this class, as induced
the officers to suspect that the case had extensive
ramiticatious. When they searched the lodgings of
the Aarons, they found a card with the address of a
man named Ooulston, No. 23, Old-street, St. Luke's.
Forrester and Forster immediately went there, and
gained a sudden admission. The greatest confusion
was excited by their appearance. They. apprehended
Jenark Ooulston, to whom the premises belonged ;
they found but one piece of silk with a roller, on
which the mark was unobliterated. This mark led to
the discovery of the owner, who had been robbed, but
by another pair of foreigners than those who had been
brought before his Lordship.
Jcuark Goulatou was then placed at the bar, and
the• evidence against him was as follows :--Sarah
Chittam, warehousewoman to Mr. New, of Paternoster-
. • row, silk-manufacturer, stated, that on that day a man
and woman, who appeared to be foreigners, came to
the warehouse; a *piece of silk was stolen, but it was
• nut missed until the police officers brought home a
piece, which was ascertained to be the property of the
. house; she was positive the silk had net been sold, and
• she had seen it on the Thursday.
Henry Forster, an officer, produced a piece of silk,
which was identified as Mr. New's 'property. lie
• stated that be bad, in consequence of information,
gone to the apartments of the primmer, at 23, Old-
street, and that be met the prisoner's wife coming oat
of his apartment, on the second floor, with a bundle
containing the silk; the prisoner said he knew no-
thing at all about the property urn being first inter-
,
rimed, bat be afterwards said that be purchased it
at an seethe. The parties sem horsed ores to-prom-
cuts Ballston for the misdensidbesr of having in his
pesesesies stoles propitity.
isupoph South was charged with having pawl a
forged LW. now upon John Brills. OMAN, who lives
with Mr. Tucker, of Budge-row, stationer, stated, that
the prisoner came to the warehouse between four and
