LONDON AND COUNTRY NEWS. Captain Wood, of the 2d regiment of Guards, was thrown from his horse on Tuesday afternoon, in Albany-street, Re- gent's-park, by which accident his shoulder was dislocated and his head fractured. He was taken up by a Mr. Painter, and conveyed in a hackney-coach to the Regent's-park bar- racks, where he lies without hopes of recovery. DEATH FROM STARVATION.— Monday an inquest was held at the House of Correction, Coidbath-fields, before Mr. Baker,and a jury on the remains of John Sorners, who died in that prison on Saturday morning, from extreme debility, brought on by a want of the common necessaries of life. Mr. Henry Webster, clerk of the prison, produced the war- rant of commitment of Mr. Walker, one of the Magistrates at Lambeth-street, in which deceased was committed on the 5th inst. for 14 days' imprisonment and hard labour, as a rouge and vagabond, been found wandering abroad, and sleeping in the' open air. Mr. Wakefield, the surgeon, stated that deceased was taken to the convalescent infirmary: He was in the most emaciated state, and very weak. He had no particular disease, but seemed in a state of starvation. He administered restoratives and nourishing food but lie was too far gone, and died on Saturday morning about five. He attributed his death to want and starvation. The jury returned a verdict—"That the deceased died a natural death by the visitation of God, brought on by extreme want, in consequence of having been refused relief by the parish of St. George in the East, in the county of Middlesex." The Gazette of Tuesday contains the elevation to the Peerage of Valentine Browne, Lord Cloncurry by the title of Baron Cloncurry, of Cloncurry in the county of Kildare, and of Admiral Sir James Sumarez by the title of Baron de Sumarez, of the island of Gurnsey. A curious species of theft and partial restitution has lately occurred in our gaol. On Saturday last, six convicts who expected to be removed to the hulks in a day or two, took advantage of the absence of one of the prison watchmen to enter his cell, and rob it of forty-three sovereigns and a half. The robbery was soon detected; and the prisoners being suspected and searched in vain, it was surmised that they must have swallowed the money, and medicines were admi- nistered calculated to compel a speedy disgorgement. In the course of the day, the coins began to show themselves— one man hatching thirteen, another four and a half, and another three. The same course of medicine has been con- tinued, and the same golden produce has been reaped; although thirteen of the sovereigns are yet missing; and are supposed to be contained in an unnatural swelling in the epigastric region of the fellow who has already been so fruit- ful. His speedy delivery or death must be the consequence of his roguery.-Shrewsbury Chronicle. The Rectory of North Fambridge, Essex, recently become vacant, has in the handsomest manner, and without solici- tation been presented to the Rev. Dr. Croly, whose eminent talents, both as a divine and poet, well entitle him to the gift. This appointment does honour to the Chancellor's disinterested regard for merit, as the politics of the Rev. Gentleman have ever been notoriously in opposition to his own. A RADICAL HATTER.—In Liverpool, a hat manufacturer for the purpose of demonstrating his attachment to a reform- ing King, gave away to the crowd several dozens of hats on the day of the coronation. On Thursday se'nnight, the Right Hon. Edward, Lord Ellenborough, gave a substantial dinner to his tenantry, and the farmers in the neighbourhood of his estate, at Southam, in honour of his Majesty's Coronation. One hundred and thirty guests partook of the old English hospitality which had been prepared for them, and the banquet was honoured by the presence of his Lordship, who presided, and several members of his family. After the cloth was removed, the "King's health" was proposed and drank with enthusiasm, and among other appropriate toasts and sentiments which enlivened the festivities of the day, the health of the noble host elicited remarks from the company, which must have proved as gratifying to his Lordship, as the happiness he diffuses around him by his residence at Southam, is to the yeomanry and peasantry of the neighbourhood. The poor felt his Lordship's bounty in the distribution of a large quantity of provisions. On Saturday last, a fine woodcock was shot at Ashgrove, by Mr. George Robertson, son of General Robertson, of Struan. From this it would appear that woodcocks remain here during the breeding season.-Elgin Courier. PROVIDENTIAL EscAPE.- On Saturday week, Mark Moody, sickle smith, who was reaping in a field at Ridgway, took shelter under a tree during a thunder storm, when his straw hat was struck by the lightning, and the brim was rent from the crown and foil round his neck, leaving him un- hurL-Sheffield Courant. The salmon-fishings on the Forfarshire coast, by stake- nets, have of late been very successful. Some of the fishers have been shipping for the London market, at the rate of 100 boxes per week. General Campbell, of Gatcombe-park, has offered him- self a candidate for the representation of the Isle of Wight, in opposition to Sir Graham Hammond. His Excellency Martin Van Buren, late Secretary of State at Washington, arrived at Cojves on Friday se'nnight, in the packet-ship President, on his mission to this Court. On Saturday afternoon last, as some children were play- ing together on the steps of a house in Brighton, one of thpm, having some damsons, said, playfully, to a little boy named Charles Holford, Open your mouth and shut your eyes, and see what God will send you." The boy imme- diately held back his head, and, shutting his eyes, opened his mouth, when the other dropped a plum into it, which slipped into his gullet, and stuck fast, and before medical aid could be procured the poor little fellow -was a corpse. An inquest was held the next day on the body-Verdict, Accidental death." LOUTH COUNTY.-An active canvass has been com- menced by the friends of Mr. Perrin, in place of Mr. Alex- ander Dawson. CORONATION DINNER AT HAMBURGH.—To do honour to the coronation of the most deservedly popular King that has sat upon the British throne since the conquest, a party of about 100 British and Hanoverian gentleman, sat down to dinner on Thursday at the Hotel de Russie; our highly- respected Consul, Mr. H. Canning, in the chair. After a very orthodox kind of plum pudding had closed the succes- sion of good things, by the consumption of which the loyal subjects of William IV. sought to do honour to the day, Non nobis Damine was sung in very fair style. The chair- man then rose and proposed the health of the King, and we will take it on ourselves to say, that in no part of the world was this toast drunk with more unbounded enthusiasm; the hall rang with cheers, which were probably audible through no inconsiderable part of the neighbourhood. A version of God save the King," written by the Rev. Mr. Baker for the occasion., was then sung in chorus. The health of" the Queen" followed. Then the Senate and Burgerschaft of Hamburg," the Navy," the Army," and "-Earl Grey." This last toast elicited cheers as long and loud as those given in honour of his Majesty, and one cheer more" was several times called for, as the noisy demonstrations of at- tachment appeared to be subsiding. In the course of the evening a collection for the benefit of the English poor was made at the suggestion of Mr. Canning. The amount col- lected was announced by Mr. Baker to be 156 marks. ►►»»•!»<««—

HOUSE OF LORDS.
HOUSE OF LORDS. TUESDAY, SLPT. 13.—In the course of the morning the following Peers were introduced and took the oaths and their seats. The Marquis of Westminster (late Earl Grosvenor;) in- troduced by the Marquis of Lansdown and Cholmondeley. Lord Poltimore (late Hon. W. Maule,) introduced by Lords Ducie and Segrave. Lord Panmure (late Hon. W. Maule,) introduced by Lords Belhaven and Dover. Lord Dinorben (late Wm. Lewis Hughes, Esq.) introduced by Lords Ducie and Dundas. The Earl of Burlington (late Lord George Augustus Henry Cavendish,) introduced by the Earls of Gosford and Carlisle. The Earl of Camperdown (late Viscount Duncan,) introduced by Earls Albermarle and Gosford. The Earl of Radnor presented a petition from the inhabitants of a certain district in the county of Wilts, in favour of extending the Poor Laws to Ireland. The Game bill was read a second time, and the Lords were ordered to be summoned for monday, with a view to the discus- sion of the principle of the bill on that day. WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 14.—In the course of conversation respecting Portugal, the Marquis of Londonderry asked whether there were any fresh complaints respecting the conduct of Don Miguel to cause the sending thither of two ships of the line. Earl Grey said there were fresh grievances and complaints, not only coming flam the British Consul, but also from the com- manders of ships, and from merchants, and these grievances pre- vailed to a very high degree, not only in Lisbon, but at Oporto. To some other observations made by the Marquis of London- derry Earl Grey replied that he had confidence in the good faith of the French government, and that he had good reason for that confidence. The Lord Chancellor also observed that the government had confidence in the French government, and that the latter was desirous to preserve peace with this country; the government of this country was also desirous to preserve peace with France; and it was of the last importance that peace should be preserved between the two countries, because upon that depended the peace of the world.-Adjourned. ———-aSSiBB————
HOUSE OF COMMONS.
HOUSE OF COMMONS. TUESDAY, SEPT. 13.—On the motion of Lord Ingestrie, a new writ was ordered to elect a member for the county of Dorset, in the room of John Calcraft, Esq., deceased. 1Œr. Rice moved a new writ for the borough of Flint, in the room of Sir E. M. Lloyd, Bart., now Lord Mostyn. REFORM BILL. Lord John Russell said, that in rising to move the order of the day for the consideration of the report on the English reform bill, it might perhaps be convenient to the house if he now proceeded to call its attention to two or three points in the bill, on which it would be necessary to make some alterations. He therefore in- tended to propose that, instead of the 1st of November," the 1st of February" should be inserted in the bill as the day on which the registration was to begin. That alteration of the date would also render the alteration of some other dates a matter of necessity. To Carmarthenshire and Denbighshire, of which the former possessed 96,000 and the latter 76,000 inhabitants, ministers now proposed to give one member each. As they had now added two members to the county representation, ministers, in con- formity with the principles on which they had acted throughout this bill, now proposed to give two representatives to two large commercial towns. One of these towns was in Lancashire, and had been rated under its real worth it was Ashton-under-line. The other was connected with the great clothing district of Gloucestershire, and was Stroud and Minchinhampton. He had no other alterations to make in the bill,—no further observations to offer to the house at this stage of the bill. (Hear.) Mr. Goulburn said, that asthe alterations and additions which the noble lord had announced his intention of proposing on the third reading of the bill were of very material importance, he wished to be informed what day the noble lord intended to fix for the third reading of the bill. The Chancellor of the Exchequer would not waste the time of the house in disputing whether these alterations were material or not. He agreed, however, with the right hon. gentleman in thinking that it was very material that they should fix a day for the third reading. That day must, of course, depend on the time occupied in considering the report. He hoped, however, that the house wonld be able to get through the report so as to be able to take the third reading of the bill on Monday next. After some discussion all the clauses to the 29th were agreed to, when the report was ordered to be taken into further con- sideration on Wednesday.—Adjourned. WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 14.—The report of the reform bill was taken into further consideration, and the amendments in various clauses were gone through. Mr. Alderman Wood proposed a clause rendering it imperative on the clerks of the different companies in London to make re- turns of all the liverymen entitled to vote at the elections for the city, which was agreed to. Colonel Sibthorp brought forward a clause disqualifying persons from voting who held official civil situations during the pleasure of the crown, but this, after some conversation, he withdrew. Mr. Croker and Lord Stormont, in order to have the fact re- corded upon the journals, moved respectively to leave out the two disfranchising clauses, which motions were negatived. On the motion of Lord Althorp the words, The counties of Carmarthen, Denbigh, and Glamorgan," were substituted for The county of Glamorgan," thus giving an additional member to each of the two former counties as well as to the latter. On the motion of Lord John Russell, an amendment was in- troduced giving power to an election committee to alter the registry of votes. Mr. Duncombe moved to transfer Aldborough from schedule B to A. After some conversation, the motion being opposed by ministers, the house divided, when there appeared, for it 64, against it 149-majority for ministers, 85. The Marquis of Chandos moved to transfer Evesham from sche- dule B to A, but, after some conversation, withdrew his amend- ment. Mr. Croker moved to expunge Downton from schedule A, for the purpose of placing it in schedule B, upon which the house divided, when there appeared, for the motion 43, against it 96— majority for ministers 53.-Adjourned.

CORN EXCHANGE, MARK LANE, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14. -—The wheat trade was extremely dull this morning, and very few sales of either new or old were effected, still fine samples support Monday's prices; inferior sorts continue unsaleable. Very fine parcels of malting barley support Monday's quotations, but a great deal of what is on sale is so bad in quality, our maltsters will not purchase it; such, consequently, is from Is to 2s per quarter lower. Oats were heavy in sale, but not cheaper. Beans and peas support the prices of last market day.

ILEATHER.
LEATHER. BRISTOL LEATHER FAIR.—The Leather Fair commenced on Tuesday se'nnight. There was a steady demand for best dressing hides, at about former prices, and, with a few exceptions, all have been sold. Prime light spreading English hides and shaved hides experienced no alteration but all the commoner descrip- tions, as also Welsh hides, suffered a reduction in price. Prime pattern skins were not in large supply, and an advance of full a halfpenny per pound was obtained. Very few buyers appeared for Welsh skins, and lower prices were generally submitted to. Kips, both English and foreign, were not in large supply, and experienced a very limited demand. Spanish, German, and English horse hides, with seals, were scarcely inquired for. The quantity of sole leather produced for sale was considerable a fair demand has, however, been experienced for prime articles, ) at late prices
