THE Eton MONTLPAt. he scholasiic jubilee, known by this title, which h.is existed from time immemorial, and is celebrated every third year, took place Tuesday, with the accustomed solem- nities; w this classic spot. A great and general was experienced in the lamented absence of his Majesty, and rho- Neill uiore lament, j ed catise of that absence. But the Sovereign sent bis usual purse of one hundred guineas and Mr. Cannhj, ooee the most distinguished Alumnus of flHS ancient Seminary, was the bearer of it. The day was uncommonly fine, and it was tbe general feeling that a more delightful Montetn had never before occurred. Mr. Barnard, the Captain of the Scholars, will receive all-f:¡.e- money collected, and immediately enter the Uni- versity upon the foundation. The grandfather of this young gentleman was once Provost of Eton College.

An inquest is appointed 10 be held on thf remains, and the inquiry (from the evidence which has been brought forward respect- lug the con iiift of Gotte previously to, and at the ifme of, the fire,) is likely to be of ihe most serious description.

The Report, which was received with considerable applause, was ordered to be printed and circulated. A letter to a Gentleman in Manchester, da ted Philadelphia, April 15, says—" You will have heard, perhaps, that Dr. Pattison, late of Glas- gow, has given your old General, Cadwallader, a shot. Cadwallader being one of the Managers, refused to- let the Doctor have a ticket for the Citjf Assembly in consequence they met, fired at eight paces, and the Doctor shot him in the under, part of the wrist the ball went up to the elbow and is not yet extracted. In great pain, the suf- ferer has beea obliged to remain near ihe place where they fought for the last ten da)s "-A let. ter received in Glasgow from a friend of Dr Put tison, describing the meeting, says—that the Ge neral being a crack shot, the Doctor took special care to let fly the instant the wotd 11 fire was gi.en and the ball lodged in the pistolarm.

WINCHESTEFt,-On Wednesday some labour- ers, working in a field belonging to H. Noyes, Esq. &f Thrtixton, near Weyhill, discovered, about twti, feet under I he ground. a most beauii "fttf tsaselated pavement, supposed to be the floor*- in bf a tent, used by some Roman General.—- The fend is cleared away, and, with little excep- tion, it presents a must perfce. picture o., aiiti quity. The pavement is composed of small dyes, about 'half ao inch square, of various colours, and, according to the different compartments, varying in size 5 the workmanship is beautifully shaded, and the fiure, which are mostly preserved per- fect, showgreat art of delineation, In the ce" tre is placed the General, with the right arm ex tended, clasping a goblet —in the left is a spear -over his shoutdef hangs a skin or a wild beasr, and his feet are resting on the hack of a leopkrd. The whole is delightfully ornamented, an(f cer- tainly offers to the curious a choice specimen of early days. The inscription, which is as perjert as at first, is on the upper margin of the ve" -npnf. and is as follow-, qvinTV S bi AT A LVS IVAIALTNAS ET SODEUI. At the upper side of the square, indeed just above the letter Q, is a piece of free-sUme about.21feet square. The labourers are «,ill employed re moving, the earth, and tra-jfug foundations of- buildings, which, no doub-r, belonged to this re- markable spot.

MELANCHOLV SHIPVJ-RECE.—The brrg Ro- berts, Iff Whitebaven,Porteous master from Dub- lin bound for this port, with a cargo of live cattle and having on board a great number of passengers biifortunately struck upon Longness Point, in the I.sle of Man, on Friday the 16 inst when melan choly to relate, only a part or the crew saved. It is supposed that." from 30 to 4r) people have perished on this occasion :'also 30 horses, 40 head of cattle; 140 pigs, &c, and there is "little probability of saving any part of the ship. The ltoherlshall left Dublin on the morning of Friday and the wind-blowing very strong, with a heavy sea, her ballast shifted, which had rendered her and the w,ather being thick and llggy, op board had 00 idea of their peril, ous sifttatioo uoHl "five vessel struck.

WHOLESALE HORSE-STEALIWG.—The Bow- street Magisirates were occupied several hours Saturday investigating the most extraordinary t-asfe oY horse stert|in5 that has come before them for, a great fetigtb of time. Henry Poyser, a wheelwright,,at Powder's End, and Anne P .yser, hi« si«,ter-in iaw, were.placed at the bar, charged oo s^tpufiajijof having feloniously disposed of a number of stolen horse*. It appeared by:th e* evid^nee,^hich was yoluminous, ihat Tho. nias i?oy&er, husband of the prisoner Anne, and auothur brother, named William, have recently been ;c(>tmri in ed to JJerby Gaol on various charges of;horse «tea|ing, and ihai since their committal, several of the horses they had stolen have been traced, by the exertions of Bishop and Upton, of this office, to the possession of the prisoners, fienry and Anoe Poyser, who have been dispos- ing of them since their relatives were apprehend- ed. Four other valuable horses, stolen hy Tho mas and William, have also been found 10 he possession of another hrulher,a respectable farrper, near Enfield Chase; but he having in- stantly given thetn ul), and there being no reason to believe that he knew them to be stolen, he has been admitted to bail in a large amount for his future appearance, should it be necessary.— The following are the cases gone into on the pre sent occasion 1—Mr. John Brown, maltster, of Yoxhall, Staffordshire, had a valuable brown mare stolen from his premises on the 25 h of "September last and on the 7tb of the present month it was foundAn the possession of Anne Poyser, at the. house of her husband, Thomas, at Chingford, Essex.

This mitre was sold at Aldridge's Repository, on the 26ih April, by Atiop Poyser, accompanied by Henry, to Mr. Richards, of the Swau livery stables, Oxford- sl red; from" brim it passed through several h^uds, until it,wa-; purchased by GevierakSir W.

Mr. Jonathao Mallet, of Fresh- field, Staffordshire, had a valuable black blood mare stolen from a close near his house on the night of the 12'h June laqf and, thoijgh he ad- vertised it, offering a reward for its recovery, he never heard of it again. until since the appreheu siofl of the prisoners, when it was found in the possession of Mr. Richards, of the Swaa livery. stables, Oxford street, who bad purchased ir of the prisoner, Anne Poyser, for thirty guineaq.- She took it to his stables, accompanied by Henry Poyser, artdgtwe her address at Chingford, at the same time representing that her husband was confined to his bed with a broken leg. Mr. Sa- muel Lawley, of Needwood Forest, had dark chetnut mare and a grey colt stolen from him oil the 4th of July, 18211 and the grey colt was found in the possessioo of Anoe Poyser, at Ciiiiigftird, at the time of her apprehension.
