As the wheat crops advance to maturity, we are SOfI) to h2ar but bad accounls ot its expected pro (h:ce, from many of the corn districts. The prospect of all kinds of game, especially partridges, is extremely tlaltering this year; manj coveys are already strong upon the wing. There has been a decrease in the eOllsumptioaof porter in the present year in London, as compared with the corresponding term of 1827, to the extent of G7,9S2 barre i s. Sir Isaac Newton believed that, by sufficient compression, the whole matter of the universe- the solid globe itself-with the sun, planets and stars, might be brought into a globul space of one inch in diititi ter. Corn was so cheap in England in 1013, as to prejudice the farming interest. In consequence a law was made, prohibiting the importation of grain, when the price ran below tis. Sd. for wheat, os. rre, and 3s. barley, per quarter. At an advocate's funeral recently at Munich, when the colKn was lowered in the grave, a man, with many oaths, threw in the deeds of a law suit, that the defunct might finish in hell the process which had caused ruin on earth." Matrimonial ruptures, and breaches of promise to marry, acquire a very prompt publicity among our Trans Atlantic brethren, by means of the press. The public rarely learn particulars in this country, until the trial of an action for damages. AHHIVAI.S AT THE PKXHHI'N ARMS HOTEL.— Mrs. Daniel and party; General King; Mr. C. Turner; Rev.

SwniMixo FEAT.—A feat, the performance 01 which the late Ion; Byron would have envied had he been alive and present to witness it, was one day last week accomplished by an athleiic young man of this city, whose name we purposely eon ceal, fWII1 a thorough knowledge of his 111..1",( ami unassuming disposition. It was no less a task than swimming, nearly in a dired Hlle, frolll the lloat ing hath, at Garth Point, to the Anglesey shore, without resting, and seemillgly without fatigue, though the current at the time ran upwards of live knots all hour towards the bridge. THE THAMES TUNNEL.—'We trust the ell."1 which has hCel1 latclv made for the coO/plet¡oll of the Thames Tunnel, "will be attended with the success which the meritorious nature of the enter- prise, as well as the interest taken in it by our il lustrious Premier, warrant us to expect. The apathy which has hitherto pievailed in the public mind, can only be explained by the recollection of the dupes an,1 thieves who shared in the bubbles 1 if 1825. But this is a widely different scheme-— one of real and practical utility, one of probable proilt to t!ie proprietors, and of certain fume to the country. Trti. SLATE TKAOE.—A fine American brig, call ed the Veutrosa, of J30stOIl, commanded by Capt. Abbot, is now laying in the straits, allll ¡,mlil!g with all expedition, with the expectation of arriv ing at her destination before the provisions of the Xcw Amcriean Tariff eome into operation. She is the first vessel we have had this summer fioin the United States, though the straits formerly were crowded with them from April to September, and bv the accounts she brings, we learn that the slate trade in America is fast reviving, and that we may again shortly expect to witness the gratifying sight we have heretofore been accustomed to behold with such pleasure. (.'LAKE ELECTION -That which we anticipated as likely to be the result of the Clare election, would seem to be already in progress ofdevelope- ment. A letter from Ennis, inserted in' the Murn- ing Hemtd of Monday last, says that it is the inten- tion of the landed proprietors, even at goreat pe- cuniary sacrifices, to convert their properties into large farms as the present leases drop, and give them to a Protestant tenantry. "Tlie results of fr. O'Coniicll's insane and ineffectual ambition," adds the writer, are but heginning to display themselves; the conclusion will be worse, awl Clare, hitherto a peaceable county, will be the un- happy victim to the Quixotic crusades of the Li- berating Knights and their Chivalrous leader." REGATTA AT BEACMAKIS.—We understand that the paragraph in our last, referring to the Milfonl Haven Regatta, furnished a hint to a number of the respectable owners of small pleasure-boats residing at Beaumaris, who are now associating for the purpose of trying the merits uftheir respective boats as well as their own (act in managing them. The liberality of the inhabitants of that fashiona- ble bathing place, will, we are sure, render the prizes worthy of the most earnest contention, and if we may judge from the multitude who assemble to witness the launch of boats of only ordinary di mensions, the fete will be well attended. There are many gentlemen in Bangor willing, nay eager to join them, and the ladies, we know, are equally- anxious to wit.iess the ELOPEMENT.—On Sunday week a young lady and gentleman (from the neighbourhood of Derby) passed through Carlisle on a matrimonial trip to the far-famed temple of Hymen at Gretna Green. The lady was young and beautiful, and apparently not merre than seventeen years of age the bride- groom a comely and well proportioned youth, scarcely arrived at" man's estate." The parties had dreaded pursuit, and therefore drove with great rapidity. They left Manchester in a chaise and four the same morning, at six o'clock, and arrived at the coffee house, Carlisle, at five in the evening; having travelled 1:20 miles in eleven hours, including stoppages They instantly set off for Gretna, and were back again at Carlisle about nine o'clock. Oil retiring to rest, II", YOlIlIg I gentleman dec'arcd that he bad not had his boots off during the three prccecling nights At six o'clock on the following morning a gentleman named Lester (supposed to be a relation of the lady's) arrived in pursuit: the parties had an ami, eaule interview, and returned to Manchester that evening by the mail, booked in the name of Aslop, FonT RACE ON THE ROOOEVE AT C'HE.STE!—A match for £10 a side, distance ItiO yards, came off on the Race Course at Chester on Monday after- noon, between .Samuel, eldest son of Mr. Joseph Lewis, who keeps the Inn at t'oalbrook, near Tarporley, and Edward Davies of Hopc, ill the county of Flint. Both the lrIell (neither of whom had ever been beaten) had already obtained some local celebrity; Davies having beat the Holt and Wrexham runners, and Lewis being well known among his neighbours, the Delamere Foresters, as uothillg but a good one, and having among other feats let Admiral Tollemache in a secret by beat ing an Epsom runner which the gallant Admiral brought down to compete with this young Forester. The friends of both parties were eåeh very conli dent of success and the Welshmen were backing their countryman freely at 4 to 3, and (i to 1, with plenty of takers. One of the heaviest showers that has fallen in this slwwery month came down in tonents about one o'clock, and rendered the ground extremely slippery and he:tvy.fter much time wasted in making the necessary preparation and in endeavouring to clear the course, the tie,, came to the scratch a few minutes after four olclw-k. They were about the same height; but Lewis was much the more light and sinewey figure. Tliey made all excellent start, by signal, each setting olf at the top of his speed. After the first fifteen yards there was not a shadow of a chance it was all Lombard Street to Rag Fair on Lewis. He darted a head about four or five yards, and maintained that superiority throughout, occasionally turning round upon his opponent and urging him to mend his pace He ran the distance in 15 seconds and if the ground had not been so heavy, or if he had wished to make greater exertion he could have done it in less time. He was received at the goal with cheers, and he would have been torn to pieces by the caresses of his friends, if he had not broke away from them and lightly hounded over the iron railing that encloses the Grand Stand. The Welshmen looked dreadfully blue; not so much for the loss of their money as the fame of the crack runner of the Principality. Lewis was led off the course amidst the cheers of the multi- tude, who shouted" Cheshite far ever and we understand that the Tarvin Band met him at the suburbs of the city, and conducted him home in triumph, playing" See the Conquering Hero comes." We understand that Lewis' father, who is an ex- tensive farimr-and is himself no mean proficient ill athletic sports, as those can tell who have felt the weight of his « bunch of fives," will back him for X30 aside against any man in England, for I (iO yards. KINO'S COLLEGE.—It affords U5 wc: pleasure to witness the warm encouragement v hwiiw given to the Ki??g', College. The subscriptions amounted on the ?'ti? July (tbat is, in little more than a fort night from the day on which th pub)", medlll ws held) to nearly .1'11,000., besides which 110 less than 262 shares were taken. May so excellent and noble an institution go on and prosper! AWKWARD FOR THE J,'J)1ysl.- rh inconveni- clice of wearing artificial imitations ot wheat, oats, aud "rass ill th., ladies' p.nt-hume bonnets, was strongly illustrated last Saturday in t. Clement's Churchyard, London, when a hungry donkey tually snatched the bonnet off tin- head of a fair belle, imagining no doubt he had got a dellCwus tllf?ll. nUI\S"1"R\- FAIR. —At this fair, f?'t sh,eep averaged Od. per Ib.-tron¡¡ sture pigs rather ad vaneed 011 the prices of hst fair; hut small pigs were something lower-Fat cattle aleraged (id per lb.—Bacon 7 id. to Nil. per lh.— Hams sd. per 1).-S:,It butter sold at fli),I. to p,r ll,.

"HOKOCOH INTEREST.—A singular circumstance is occasioning much small talk iu the legal awl politieal drdes where it is k Marquis of Cleveland, when 1.0111 Darlington, several years ago, purchased the borough of Trcgony for t,I,(jUO. and having little further occasion, as lie a few months ago imagined, for the continuance 01' all his borough interest, agreed to sell it; but before the jiincbasS was èompletcd new events occurred, and among others the surprising fact that the title deeds of the bOfoudl were missing.— The offices of several respectable solicitors have been ransacked witlnMH sweess. TUHH'TE OF HES1'F.CI'We have much pleasure in recording that, a f8"" days ago, all elegant piece of plate was presented to thenev. J. Watkins, of this city, formerly a curate of St..Mary's, in .Shrews- bllry. This gratifying tribute of respect was the result of a subscription for that purpose, by some of [he principal resident inhabitants of St. Mary's parish, and intended not only tu evince their per- sonal respect for the Key. Gentleman; but their seuse of his ministerial services also the presen tation would have taken- place at an earlier period, but for the absence of one of the principal sub- scribers. BONEORIUBER OHM ON orTilF, PRE". -This huary political sinner in a rate letter to the Premier says There is one furour that 1 ask of you, my Lord Duke, and I never before asked a favour of any Minister that "uU will have a law passed to cause all Proprietors, Editors, and Hcpor ters, (of both se,nwJ of Reviews, Magazines, and Newspapers, to beilra\;n up, in rank entire, in Hvde Fark, once in every month of March and once ill every month of September.

[The old associations still cleave to him. We wish the Duke would comply with his request and make the old bone, grubber nm tI,I' yvunt let through the ranks, that the" gentlemen of the Press" might" lash the racal" for the disgrace whieh he has brought I upon the fraternity by his being found among the number.] TREMENDOUS FLOODS.—Ow ing to the heavy and I continued rains in the eastern parts of Yorkshire, particularly near the Number, some hundreds of acres of hay and corn hare been inundated, and several fields of bay, which were ready to be car- i ried, as well as those cut, have been swept away. The corn fields present the appearance of having been rolled over. At Stamford lirnlge, near Chester. all the sin- rounding meadows were under water, and UI1 Tuesday morning men were wading in the fields up to their middle, with ropes in their hands, en deavouving to seeme thc cattle. At H,wenseroft, hay grass, the produce of thirty acres, belonging to Mr. Buchanan, was principally carried away by the flood. In the neighbourhood of Stretford and Northern, the whole of the low lands on the banks of the Mersey, were laid under water, and an im mense quantity of hay, together with mam fields of corn and potatoes, eutirely destroyed; 1\ part of the road near Crossford C'ridge, was washed away by the Hood At Dunham Massey the river Bnllin overflowed its banks, and washed away a vast quan- tity of hay, six acres of whieh belonged to one gcn tleman. The neighbourhoods of Nantwich and Northwich have also greatly suffered frum the swelling of the river Weaver; in the latter town, the river rose so high, on Sunday, that it did eon siderable damage, undermining the warehouse of R. P. Hadfield, Es'l sa!tmerehant, and the greater part of it fdl, as a!so a crane belonging to him. On Tuesday morning, about nine o'dock, ill CUll sequence of the great swelling of the river, its banks were overflowed in various parts, the water pouring in torrents into the town, every street in the lower part being completely and speedily ill- 1JlI,lated. The lower stories of the houses were ■filled, and the stocks in the shop cellars floating about. kill Wilton street fell down, and the wate" filially became so deep, that boats were procured, and launched in the streets, and manY or the inhabitants were rescued out of th second stories of their dwellings bv means of ladders. None of the eoachcs could pass through the town and the quantity of hay carried off the fields in the vicinity was j¡¡¡nWllse, In the neighbourhood of Stockport and Dids hnrv, and, ill fact, for a length of several miles 00 the Mersey, thereabouts, the consequences or the", floods have been very disastrous. About ten 0' clock on n11<1a.y morning, a pan 01 me IjUt" pn' miscsoCAtr.t'ctcrMar'.?'nJ.ofParkMjM.Stock- pMt, was undermined hy the fore" of the water, and gave way with a tremendous crash. Nearly a thoualHl pieces of calico, togethcr witli a quan- tity or vitriol, and other artides used in bleachiug grey goods, were, with the floors and wails of the building, (about eight yards broad, and several stories high) carried down the river. A great deal ofttamage was also done to the stocks of cot- ton placed in the loner stories, to which the water obtained access. The windows of the spin- ning factory of lIIr. Bayley, a little below the bridge, were forced in, and about eighteen or twenty skips of weft were away. A vast deal of injury was done also to the st cks and ma- chinery in several other factories, situate at the water's edge; bt, with the exception of Mr. Marsland's, we do not hear of any IJtlildius llav ing sustained material injury. Tile ndghhour, hood of Marple and Compstall Bridge has suffered severely in times of former floods, and it was very confidently expected that there would have been great damage done there on this occa- sioii but, we believe, (in contradiction to many reports to the contrary) that little or 110 damage was done there. Three sons of Mr, Hampson, a farmer, of Didsburv, and a man servant, were out on Sunday, endeavouring to save as much of the hay as possible from the ravages of the flood, when the banks of the river suddenly burst in, and in a short time the ground, for several acres round them, was orertlowed. No chance of escape re- mained for them but to climb into a tree, which they availed themselves of. The distraction of Mr. Hampson, when he saw the whole of his land overflooded, without any signs of the return of his sons, is not to be described; and his joy may he conceived when, after a search of some hours for which a small boat was put in requisition, they were found in the unmmfortllble situation where they had taken refuge.
