FIRE.-On Sunday mornirig, about six o'clock, a fire was discovered in one of the mills belonging to Messrs. Lediard, Jones, and Mortimer, of this city, dry sailers, situated at Chewton Keynsham, and immediately adjoin- ing the tesidence of Mr. Jones, which burnt with such rapidity that in the course of half-an-hour the entire rool fell in, and nearly the whole of the valuable stock was de- stroyed. By the greatest exertions the fire was prevented from communicating with the dwelling-house, which must otherwise have fallen a prey to the devouring element. The property was, we understand, fully insured, and tha bus- iness of the firm will not suffer the least impediment in consequence of the misfortune. Mr. William B. Herepath, of the Bristol Medical School, has passed his examination as Bachelor of Medi- cine of the London University, in the first class. The Bristol Gas Companies have reduced the price o Gas to 8s. per thousand cubic feet, with the additional advantage of a discount to large consumers, varying from 7l to 20 per cent. ° J & :l At the Central Criminal Court, Bernard Gregory, the editor of the Satirist, pleaded guilty to the charges againsi 1. 11 him of libellIng the Duke of Brunswick and Ali.

The 24th anniversary of the birth of her Majesty's illustrious Consort was celebrated yesterday at Windsor Castle and Vir. ginia Water in a style of grandeur and magnificence unsurpassed upon any previous similar occasion. Shortly before seven o'clock the band of the 1st Life Guards arrived at the Castle, and stationed themselves in the Home Park, beneath the window of the chamber of his Royal High- ness, in the Augusta tower, and serenaded the Prince for up' wards of an hour. Hei Majesty and the Prince left the Castle at an early hour yesterday morning.; and proceeded., through the Slopes to Adelaide Lodge, where her Royal Highness the Duchess ot Kent had shortly befoie arrived from Frogmore House^ The Queen and the Prince were accompanied by the Prince of Wales, the Princess Royal, and the Princess Alice. The royal party, after paitaking of breakfast at the lodge, returned to the Castle. Soon after seven o'clock, the Duchess of Kent, attended by Lady Charlotte Dundas, and Colonel Sir George Cooper, ar- lived at the Temple, in an open carriage and four. Shortly afterwards, the Queen, nho was attended by the Countess of Dunmore, and his Hoyalllighness Prince Albert, artivedat the Temple, from the Castle, in an open barouche and four with outriders, followed by several other of the royal carriages. At this time the scene on either side of the lake was of the most exhilerating and joyous description. On the bank of the lake opposite to the Temple there were not less than 10,000 persons, who had been attracted to the spot from miles around, and many from Loudon, to vvitness this splendid fete, and to participate in the universal joy occasioned by the auspicious event. The appearance of her Majesty and his Royal Highness at the balcony 01 the Temple was the signal for thousands of loyal voices being enthusiastically poured forth to congratulate the Queen and the Prince. I he band of the 1st Life Guards, which was stationed in the state barge on the lake, and the band of the Coldstream Guards, which was arranged on the lawn in front of the windows of the Banquetting-room of the Temple, performed the National anthem, amidst the cheers of her loyal subjects, upon the ar- rival of the Sovereign. The lawn was brilliantly and tastefully illuminated. Every bush and shrub was lighted, and festooned with a rich profusion of variegated lamps of every shade and hue. Fanciful and appropriate devices met the eye at every turn, harmoniously mingling with and intersecting the shrubs and flowers. These lamps, brilliantly reflecting upon the numerous fountains which were in full play, gave a most fairy-like effect to the animated scene which here presented itself. The royal banquet took place precisely at eight o'clock. His Royal Highness sat on the right of her Majesty, and next to the Prince her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent. The Right Hon. Sir Robert Peel sat on the left, and next to the Queen. The Earl of Liverpool, as the lord steward of her Majesty's household, was sealed vis a vis to the Queen. At the conclusion of the banquet the first toast, proposed by the Lord Stewaid, was The health of his Royal Highness Piince Albert," the band of the Coldstream Guards performing the CoburgMarch. The next toast was The health of the Queen and this was succeeded by the two bands performing the national anthem. The pyrotechnic display, which consisted almost entirely of what are termed asrial discharges," commenced soon after nine o'clock, with a royal salute from a battery on the bank opposite to the Fishing Temple. This was returned from the battery at Belvidere. The blinds of the banquetting-room, on that side facing the lake, had been, until this period, kspt completely closed. The doors an¡1 windows were now thrown open, when her Majesty and the Prince, and their distinguished guests, proceeded into the balcony, and from thence witnessed this portion of the en- tertainments connected with the birth-day jete, which princi- pally took place upon an elevated portion of the bank just across the lake. These included several hundreds of rockets, in every variety, coloured shells and stars, large shells with tail stars and golden rains, bright stars, comets, suns, royal salutes, crimson, green, and blue fires, &c. On the lake there was a variety of water rockets, water fountains, crimson, green, and purple fires, &c. The Royal Adelaide frigate was illuminated with upwards of 4,000 lamps; the yards, masts, rigging, port-holes, figure-head, and the whole of this beautiful vessel (from stem to stern, aloft and on deck) presented one brilliant blaze of light. The smaller frigate, the Victorine, and a third, were also si- milarly illuminated. These three vessels were, during the whole of the- early part of the evening moored up the cove, and kept completely out from the view of the royal party uniil after the fire-works had commenced, when they sailed out, in a line, the Royal Adelaide taking the lead, and tacked about, up and down the lake, opposite the Temple, dunng the remainder of the evening, each discharging, at intervals, vollies of rockets, royal salutes, comets, &c. The splendid sight upon the lake at this period It were im- possible to describe. The air was literally in a blaze with clouds of rockets, discharged simultaneously from the battery at Hel- videre, the banks on each side, and the vessels on the lake whtlst at the same time the banks and eminences, for a consi- derable distance around the Temple and on the opposite shore blazed with innumerable crimson, silver, blue, and other Her Majesty and the Prince, with their rnyat and illustrious guests and suite, took their departure at a few minutes past ten o'clock, in a close travelling carriage and four, and reached the castle shortlybefoteeteven.
MARINE EXCURSION OF HER MAJESTY.
MARINE EXCURSION OF HER MAJESTY. On Monday morning, soon after nine o'clock, the Queen and Prince Albert arrived at the Farnborough station of the Great Southern Railway, on their route to Southampton, her Majesty intending to take a series of marine excursions on the coist. They immediately entered the special train, and were expected to reach Southampton by eleven o'clock. The Duke of Wellington, the Earl of Aberdeen, and other distinguished persons, also set out for Southampton to attend the Queen. Her Majesty will make no stay at that place, but will pro- ceed at once in the Royal Yacht to Portsmouth, and view the ships now lying at Spithead. Her Majesty will next go to Weymouth, and afterwards visit Plymouth, from whence the Royal yacht will stretch over to Cherbourg. Her Majesty and his Royal Highness Prince Albert will land at Tieport, where they will be received by his Majesty Louis Philippe, who will conduct his illustrious guests to the Chateau d'Eu. The Sovereigns of England and France will then, it is expected, proceed together with a brilliant retinue to Paris and Versailles, where magnificent preparations are being carried on for a gor- geous fete in the Galerie des Glaces. The royal party then return to the Chateau d'Eu, and after her Majesty has taken leave of her illustrious host, she will em- bark for Brighton, where she will stay for a short lime with their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales, and the Prin- cesses. h. d d b' ) The royal yacht is ordered to be in readiness on her Majesty's return to Brighton, to go toOstend, as her Majesty has ex- pressed her intention of visiting the King of the Belgians ai bru-sets. Her Majesty will then return to London. ° SOUTHAMPTON, TUESDAY.—We left her Majesty and Prince Albert yesterday afternoon onshore at Ryde, with the royal yacht and the squadron of steamersat anchor at a shortdistance off the pier. l heldl the yacht in the Admiral's barge, and as soon as her Majesty stepped into the boat the royal standard was hauled down In the yacht, and hoisted on board the barge. Ihe crews of the war steamers manned their yards, and the company iu the South Western, Ariadne and Monarch, mwchan Reamers, loudly cheered her Majesty and lhe Prince on t eir progress to the shore, which they courteously and condescend gl'y ^knowJedged. The rain, at the time had given over, but the wwther was rather squally, and there was a heavy swe wever, her Majesty, who is an excellent sail°r» macU inn"# ,0 m'n^' ^ut stepped into the boat wi inrib;n(7 erence though the sea had been as smoot I as g*g ass. Plie steps of the pier where her Majesty and the Punce were to land were covered with crimson cloth, and every preparation made for the proper reception of the royal party that could be effected during the short inteival from the ime l became known that her Majesty would land there.. The landing of her Majesty at Ryde presented a very gay antI animated scene, The pier, which extends a very conside- rable distance frorn the shore, was thronged with ladies and gent emen, among whom were some of the first rank and fa- shion. I he stand of England had been hauled do An from the barge and replaced by the flag of the gallant Admiral., ho com- mands nere, and had been hoisted on the pier. A small bat- tery was rmg a royal salute, and the assembled tlnong was we coming her Miijesly and her royal consort to the shores of the oealJtlfullsland with joyous cheers. At a shoit distance from the shore the war steamers were 1y. 109 at single anchor with their yards manned, and the crews all dressed with an uniformity that had a very pretty effect while in the dislance at Spithead, there rode one of the country's proudest and most magnificent objects, a first rate man-of-war, with her three tiers of heavy guns, whose roaring throats gave welcome to their sovereign. Innumerable yachts of all sizes and descriptions, and of va. rious rigs, and all beautiful of their kind, were thickly scattered about In all directions, as far as the eye could reach. The scene altogether was very splendid and interesting, and one that has seldom, If ever, been surpassed in these seas. It was thought that her Majesty and Prince Albert would I*0 remaiD '0Dg on shore at Ryde, but would re embark on oar the yacht in the evening, and proceed in her to Cowes oa s> and bring too there for the night; and such was the cale. ° The royal party arter landing, walked along the pier to the 0WPjf Pa{f''e.8 on 'he pier forming a line on either side, to ena e er^Majesty to pass. The loyal pair graciously ac- knowteagedthe enthusiastic but respectful greetings of the per- rr DS MafpTi j°n l'le P'er> anc' by wh°ni they had to pass. | 'he Prince then proceeded in a carriage to e • e f a(ty Harcourt, whom her Majesty honoured by vis g. ter staying there a short time, the royal pariy leturne on board the yacht, which immediately got under ij6 ^t' and nn the rest of lhe squadron to Cowes Roads, and anchored there. ^er nrnincr'^ar106^ an<? s'ePl on hoard the yacht, and early p6X| of Yarboroueh^^aaby lhe Prince, went on board the /af i n/ihle Farl (t,)e kestrel ) They were received V '16 A Prion's i conducted by him over the vessel.

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.\
FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. TURKEY. CONSTANTINOPLE, AUG. 7.-A special commission has been appointed by the Porte, to examine into the causes of the late disturbances at Bosnia. It is evident that the difficulty which it finds in establishing order there arises from the collision of interests between the Mussulman and €iristian populations of that province. The government ing sincerely disposed to better the condition of the latter, is thwarted in its intentions by the bigotry and mis. rule which prevail among the former. In Albania there is a momentary calm, in consequence of the concessions made to the people by Khair-eddin Pacha. Sir Stratford Canning, seconded by M. Titoff, the Russian minister, has been again exerting himself to give an impulse to the proceedings of the conference at Erzeroum. The Porte now possesses the most favourable dispositions to bring matterl to a close, and so, indeed, does the Persian Go. vernment; and yet, for some reason or other, there is no visible approximation in the views of the plenipotentia- ries. The impression is every day gaining ground at this place, that the report of the murder of Colonel Stoddart and Captain Connolly at Bokhara, is altogether unfounded in fact. All the Hadgis who pass through Constantino- ple on their way to Mecca, agree in contradicting this story, and state that though incarcerated, these gentlemen are still alive. SPAIN. PARIS, AUGUST 25.—The return of M. Guizot to Paris enables the ministerial journals to publish the tele- graphic despatches. They corroborate our previous intel- ligence of delegates having been sent from Barcelona to Madrid, with a remonstrance. The following is the way in which Friday's Moniteur gives the news — "On the 20th, at Barcelona, in a numerous meeting of the Junta, the municipality, the Provincial Deputation, the Chiefs of the Natioral Guard, Prim and Milans pre- sent, it was decided by a great majority that the troops should re-occupy the Atarazanas, that Prim should dis- pose of the services of the Corps Franca, and that the authorities should resume their functions till the return from Madrid of the Delegates who carried a remonstrance thither. "The Junta of Villafranca and other districts have of- fered their aid to Arbuthnot against the Junta which has but a revolutionary minority for it in Barcelona. Another despatch says-" The officers of the garrison left the Citadel, on the 22d, to visit Prim, as governor 01 the town. They declared that he might reckon upon their support in the defence of the government. The arrange- ment of the 22d had not been published. The Atarazanas continue to be occupied by the Corps Franca." Other accounts represent the Junta of Catalonia as in- clined to re-constitute themselves supteme. Madrid letters ot the 20th speak of an accredited ru- mour, that the carrying off the Queen to La Grange was the forerunner of some bad design. It was said at the Paris Bourse, that a movement had taken place at Madrid. The Captain-General of Seville had issued a decree, appointing courts-martial at Cadiz, and condemning to death all who should be found to have any relation with the partisans of General Espartero. Even the Eca del Comercio is indignant at this gross act of illegality and blood-worthy of the Comte D'Espagne. MADRID, AUG. 20.—The Gazette announces new pro- motions in the army. A commission has been named for a reform in legisla- tion. M. Cortina is appointed president of the commis- ston. A re-organisation of the National Guard is spoken of. O'Donnell leaves Madrid for the purpose of repairing to the Havannah. The members of the Ayuntamiento have asked to be replaced in a legal form.
I IRELAND.
IRELAND. REDUCTION OF RENT. The Duke of Buckingham has made an abatement of from 15 to 20 percent, in the rents on his estate in the west of the county of Clare. The Earl of Stradbroke, during a recent visit 10 his es- J tates and mines in this country, made abatements in the rents of all his tenants, and, where he saw an inability to pay, remitted an hall a year's rent. Lord Muskerry recently assembled his tenantry at Springfield Castle, county of Limerick, and, in order to enable them to bear up against the depression of the times made an abatement of 20 per cent. on their rents. Lord Muskerry also handed to the Rev. Mr. Quard, the parish priest, £ 30 towards completing a new chapel at Broad- ford. IRISH FAIRS—RISE OF PRICES. At the autumnal fairs, now in progress, cattle are ad- j vancing in price, but sheep and pigs are still without im- provement. THE MAGISTRACY. The following magistrates have been suspended:—C ( Lynch, Esq., county of Gal way; Patrick Lynch Esq, county of Mayo; and William Lalor, Esq., Queen's s County. Those gentlemen had attended repeal meetings, f LAW APPOINTMENTS. The Evening Packet says:—"The clerkships of the Crown for the counties of Tipperary and Roscommon, vacant by the deaths of Frederick Falknei, and Nicholas Comyn, Esqs., are filled up. We have reason to believe ( that the clerk for Roscommon will be William Young, 01 Mountjoy-square, solicitor and that Messrs. James Car- michael and Henry Pedder will be joint clerks for Tlp- perary. DEPARTURE OF LORD DE GREY To.morrow the Lord Lieutenant and the Countess de Grey take their departure from Kingstown for Liverpool and Buxton. Lords Justices will besworn in after his Ex- cellency's departure, Lord Eliot, who arrived yesterday, transacted business at the Casile to-day, MILITARY DISCONTENT. The 5th Fusiliers, after the murder of the adjutant. were ordered from Parsons^own to Dublin. The following par agraphs are from the Leinster Express, a Tory paper :— "Two companies of the 5th Fusiliers arrived in Tulla- more, on Tuesday, from Parsonstown, and left the follow- s 109 morning. There appears to be much interest amongst the men, and a general feeling of regret for the unfortunate soldier, Jubee, who is stated on all hands to have been pre. viously one of the best conducted men in the regiment. MOUNTMELLICK—Although reluctant to add flame to the feeling already prevalent about the 5th Fusiliers, yet I am sorry to say the murmuring is not yet over againsi those in authority, for during the march through this town of the different divisions, many of the men expressed them- selves freely on the subject, and I could give some of their words, which would prove that all is not right in that corps yet.
GENERAL ESPARTERO, REGENT…
GENERAL ESPARTERO, REGENT OF SPAIN. The Earl of Aberdeen, as Secretary of State for Fo- reign Affairs, wrote to the Regent, on Friday evening, to signify it was her Majesty's pleasure that his highness would have an audience with the Queen, at three o'clock on Saturday afternoon, at Windsor Castle. In conse- quence of dial gracious command the Regent left Mivart's Hotel at half-past one, and proceeded by a special train to Slough, and from thence direct to the Castle, where his highness arrived at twenty-five minutes to three. Colonel Wylde, equerry to his royal highness Prince Albert, at the express command of the Queen, received the Regent on his arrival at the Castle, and was conducted by the gal- lant colonel to the private apartments selected for the ac- comodation of his highness during his visit. The Regent dressed preparatoiy to his introduction to the Queen, at which he wore the full uniform of a general in the Spanish army, with various decorations of knight- hood, the star of the order of the Bath placed conspicu- ously in the centre. Colonel Wylde conducted his highness to the royal presence, when the Regent was introduced to her Majesty and her illustrious consort by the Earl of Aberdeen. The Regent has every reason to be highly gratified with the reception he met with from her Majesty and Prince Albert. The interview of his highness with the Queen and Prince Albert lasted about half an hour. The Duchess of Victory and Donna Etadia went out in an open carriage in the afternoon, attended by Major Ling, and took an airing in the parks. The duchess and her niece walked in Kensington gardens about an hour. Since the arrival of his highness he has maintained the closest privacy, few persons being admitted to interviews It has not arisen from indisposition, as might be supposed from a statement which has gone forth to the public. The Regent, we are informed, has taken the mansion Abbey-lodge, Regeni's-park.
POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
POLICE INTELLIGENCE. NEWPORT TOWN HALL.—MONDAY, AUG. 23. Before the Mayor and Thomas Hughe*, Esq. Stephen Jones, a chubby-faced lad, apparently legardleM his being placed at tlic bar as ao old offender, was charged with stealing a quantity of apples from the garden of Frederic Justice, Esq. The offence was pioved by Joseph Harris but, as the p^* secu'or wished rather to deter others, than to punish lhe prl* soner severely, the Mayor sent him for hard labour, during three months, to the Usk House of Coriection. MILITARY BAGGAGE. Mary Jane Blair, a snub-nosed, thick-lipped, wh»le-negr° sort of eirl, who pretended to sob hysterically, and awear like Niobe, all tears," was charged with being a drunken and disorderly female, of notorious reputation. Sergeant Huxtable heard her on the canal-side swearing, bullying, and blaspheming, at a high-pressure" rate, on the night of Saluiday last. She is a banished creature from Ponty* pool, huving been sent from thence to Usk prison, for certalB offences. Prisoner, in reply to the Bench, said, blubbering I left Pontypool ahout six months ago, and am a native of Halifax in Yorkshire, from which place I imported myself into 1\1on' mouthshire as a part of military baggage." I had a month once at Usk for standing alongside the Pontymoile barracks looking at the sogers, that's a)) and the next time I was sen' there for six weeks. When the sogers leave here, I akail leaYe, and not afore. (Laughter.) Mayor: Well, then, I ihink, while the soldiers are bere, had better keep you out of their company, and therefore, y0' must go to the Usk House of Correction for six weeks, th* enjoy modest seclusion. HUNTING OUT A HUSBAND. Anna Maria Watkins, alias the "Old Crow," and M Williams, alias Sawyer"—the latter of whom said she called by her husband's name of Steadweli, Miss Steadwell whom she had been married a long time—were charged being drunken and disorderly nightingales." P.C. Baih stated that he saw the prisoner Williams at J bert's door last Saturday night, about half-past 12. Mr. Hughes Is that where the monkey is kept? (Laugb Bath It it, sir. The prisoner was making a noise I enquiring for her husband, when Mr. Hulbert, the land came out and ordered her off. The both prisoners then atta rhe door furiously with their fists and heets so I took thea Prisoner Williams: If my husband came away from house of Hulbert last Saturday night, I should now have t in bed instead of here. It was about half-past twelve o'c at night. Mr. Hughes: What sort of person* were they who were Hulberi's so late-chiefly bad characters, depraved women, &c. [ suppose ? Prisoner: There was a good many there, and some were bad characters, I believe but for my own part, I must say, I wal rather too hr gone, and I think many others were. drinking beer and spirits and other things, but I seen no gatn" bling there. The Mayor then sentenced Watkins to one month's impn- sonment, wilh hard labour and addressed the prisoner Wil. liams, admitting some excuse for her conduct in waiting for hef husband, and then discharging her, with a reprimand ani cRuiion. The prisoner said it would be a caution to her. She woulli !eave her husband, and never come here again. IMP HOP ER DTSCHAHGE OF BALLAST. Thomas Morgan, one of the" gaffers," or foremen, on oOU of the Harbour Commissioners new ballast stages, was charged on the infoimation of Hugh Griffiths, water bailiff, with having tmpropeily discharged ballast at the lower stage, to the obstruc- tion of the river Usk. Defendant: I be guilty enough of wheeling the ballalt ashore, but not of throwing the ballast into the river. It slipped there fiom the grass. Captain Richards, harbour master, sworn, said On Thur^ day, the 24th inst., the schooner Reform was lying at a berth belonging 10 the Harbour Commissioners, on the east side of the river, in the parish of Christchurch, in the port of Newport. for the purpose of discharging ballast. On that day, Thoma. Morgan, with others employed by him, discharged out of 'h* said vessel, from 30 to 40 Ions of ckalk ballast, or French chalk ballast, which they wheeled ashore from the vessel over a Ikeid. upon a plank, and instead of continuing to the ballast heap, 15- was formerly done—a spot pointed out as the proper plltce- they turned short, and upset the barrows of ballast into the river, below high-water mark considerably it was on the ro*id» and liable at every tide to slip further into the river, to the in" juiy of the navigation. On the commencement of the appoint' inent of the ballast master, 1 gave special instructions to alllhe ballast men lo wheel the ballast twelve feet from the river, °r four yards from the edge of the grass. In the presence Morgan I gave these directions, and he took his spade, a0'' made himself holes of the boundary. I have given these i°* structions more than once, twice, or thrice, and in the presence of the ballast master. I have also delivered the same charge the ballast master, that the ballast should never be discharged within four yards of the edge. Morgan thought the place was to be filled up with something. to make a proper dock for vessels to lay in, and that French chalk was the best for that purpose. The harbour master did not wish the defendant to be tioed £10, as the Harbour Actdirected, nor be imprisoned six month'' he merely wished to get the men to take it up again. Morgan said he would move the ballast at once. J, The Court Captain Richards, can Morgan remove last which is placed there 1 The Harbour Master: He caD, and, I have no doubt, sati*' factorily. The Court then ordered Morgan to get lhe ballast ashore •' soon as he could, for which purpose the case would be for a fortnight; and if it were then moved to the satisfaction 0 the water bailiff, the fine would be considerably mitigated. The court was then cleared. THURSDAY, AUG. 31. Before the Mayor, and Thos. Hughes, and 7 has.

OUR LETTER BOX. NEWPORT RACES. To the Editor of the Monmouthshire Merlin. c Sin,—In answer to a letter which appeared in your I". week's paper, signed Benjamin Francis," wherein I am aef cused, when managing the races which took place in 184l».°j, abusing him, and not paying him a stakes which his mare ^e tona won, I beg to make known to the public the reason for ø' non-payment, and also the shameful conduct of the said Be C' jamin Francis towards the committee and myself on tbat casion.. Mr. F. being anxious to become a member of the coøunll ot J formed for the getting up of the above-named races, with P.) mises to collect a large sum towards the fund" his servl (or were unfortunately accepted, and a book was supplied bin> ( the purpose of collecting. After some time had elapsed, 'j, meeting of the committee, he, Mr. F., produced bis book, names for subscriptions to the amount of twenty.five pooo ( which he, unasked for, guaranteed the payment of; and obI bill of fare, with the amount of stakes to be run for, was Pl,.fl lished upon the faith of that and other subscriptions which 1 committee had then got. It so happened that Mr. F.'» j did win the hack stakes, amounting to eighteen pounds; b' when we came to make up our accounts, and asked him for t d 'boo.' promised amount, he laughed, and said he had lost the and that he had no money in reply lo which, I informed that, being already a considerable loser by the races, he ej, hardly expect me to pay him his stakes out of ray own poC he having deceived both the committee and myself, but 'h8' jf, must find the book, collect the subscriptions, and pay hif^p. This is the plain matter of fact, which all the person* c nected with that committee can testify, if required. Jiog I should have treated this letter with silent contempt, fec f# satisfied that the subscribers generally would give no crede to it; but as there are some gentlemen in the country who be inclined to believe that there is some truth in the accusal,'ak« and who may thereby be prejudiced against our races, to tb' place next week, I consider it a duly I owe to myself, t0 .g subscribers, and to the public generally, that I should s fully the particulars of this transaction. Before I conclude, it will be as well to state one CIIC Oø stance, to shew the public the deceitfulness of this man. ihe very day that he and his friends t who are well kno a' were concocting this letter, he came to my house, (knowing ( the time that I had a very near relative lying dead, and t" fler did not wish to have anything to do with the races until the funeral ri:es had been performed,) and begged me to le' have a few large bills of the races, siatiog that he wli send them lo some of his friends in the country, and *ppe,tg\f very anxious to forwasd the races.

SUDDEN DEPARTURE OF THE FRENCH…
SUDDEN DEPARTURE OF THE FRENCH PRINCES. On Thursday the Prince de Joinville and the Duke d'Aumale arrived at Woolwich from London, and em- barked for Havre. Their departure was quite sudden, and has given rise to various surmises.
