Winchester
Saturday, September 8.

Our Natives and Citizens Feast will be celebrated on Thursday next.




The Musical Festival at Romsey commenced on Thursday at the venerable Abbey Church, under the patronage of Lord Palmerston and the two County Members, Sir Wm.Heathcote, Bart, and John Fleming, Esq., and was attended by many respectable families of the county. The performance consisted of a miscellaneous selection of Sacred Music from the most celebrated composers, and was executed in a manner that reflects the highest credit on Mr.Frederick. The principal vocal performers were, Miss Graddon, Miss George, and Mrs.Collyer; Mr.A.Loder, Mr.Rolle, Mr.Tubb; together with the first rate singers from the Winchester, Salisbury, and Bath and Wells Cathedrals.(Mr.Harrington was prevented from attending, in consequence of the death of a near relative.) Miss Frederick presided at the organ. The number of performers, instrumental and vocal, amounted to upwards of 150. Among the company present we noticed the patrons (Lord Palmerston and Mr.Fleming); the Earl of Belfast and Lady, Earls of Glengal and Chesterfield, Lady Tankerville, Lord and Lady Ashdown and family, the Hon.Mrs.Lane Fox, George Eyres, Esq. and family, Rev.Drs.Woodcock and Newbolt, Rev.O.D.St.John, Rev.- Heathcote, Rev.Thos.Penton, Rev.Nat.Fletcher, Rev.John Ford, &c. &c. &c.

There was a miscellaneous concert at the town hall in the evening, and both performances gave high satisfaction. - Yesterday morning the sacred oratorio of the Messiah was performed at the Abbey Church in a manner that excited very great admiration; and in the evening, the concert and ball were numerously attended, Mr.Finley officiating as master of the ceremonies.




Christchurch, Sept.7 - On Thursday the 30th ult., the lady of G.W.Tapps, Esq. M.P. (only son of Mr.George Ivison Tapps, Bart., of Hinton Admiral, in this parish,) gave birth to a son and heir. The celebrate the joyous event, the worthy Baronet ordered a sumptuous dinner to be provided on Tuesday last, at the King's Arms Hotel, to partake of which were invited the principal inhabitants of the town in general, and all Sir George's numerous and highly respectable tenants. The dinner consisted of every delicacy of the season; the game dessert, and wines, were of a superior quality, and served up by Mrs.Humby in excerient style; copious libations were poured forth in toasting health and long life to the young heir.

W.Baldwin, Esq. presided at the feast, and to the excellent management and polite attention to the guests, may be attributed the social hilarity, tempered with strict propriety and decorum, which pervaded the meeting, although protracted to a late hour.

The pleasure of the evening was not a little heightened by the prospect held out by the Steward, that the family domain, in the neighbourhood, would in future be the principal residence of Sir George and his large establishment. Ample provision has been made for gladdening the hearts of the labourers and their wives and children, on the estates at Hinton, Christchurch, Holdenhurst, &c., by regaling them with roast beef, plumb pudding, and ale.




Fordingbridge, Sept.7.- We have just had burst upon us, with meteoric splendour, a rare phenomenon of old English hospitality. - A true representative of our ancient nobility has arisen in the person of Eyre Coote, Esq., of West Park, who on Friday attained his one and twentieth year, upon which occasion 8,000lbs of beef, with a proportionate quantity of bread and beer, were distributed to the neighbouring poor. On the same day dinners were given to his tenants at Damerham, Martin, and Fordingbridge; at the latter place a numerous party consisting of the clergy of the neighbourhood, and the most respectable individuals of the town partook of a sumptuous feast at the Star Inn, consisting of every delicacy of the season, with wines of the choicest flavour, the whole of which was served up by Mrs.Pleden, in a manner that reflected the highest credit on her. On the removal of the cloth the health of the noble donor was enthusiastically drunk with nine times nine, evincing how deeply the party felt the transcendent virtues of the gentleman whose unbounded liberality had thus called them together. The bells ushered in the happy morn, and the merry peal was kept up without intermission during the whole day. This, with the excellent band of music which paraded the town, playing appropriate and beautiful airs, rendered it one scene of mirth and gaiety. Towards evening the spirit of the scene was much enhanced by the throngs of well-dressed peasantry entering the towns, who, after partaking of the noble donor's bounty at their own homes, came hither to finish the day by indulging in the pleasures of the merry pipe and dance.




Colonel Peter Hawker, of Longparish House, in this county, has this year exceeded all his former exploits at partridge shooting, considering the wild and unpreserved country where he shoots for the first few days. He began at 9 o'clock on Saturday the 1st instant, and returned to a late dinner with fifty-one brace of partridges and a hare, making 103 head of game, all fairly killed and bagged with his own gun, exclusive of 3 brace more that were shot and lost; and on the Monday following he killed and bagged between the hours of 10 and 6 o'clock, twenty-five brace of partridges and 2 hares. This is by far the greatest shooting on record in the neighbourhood of Andover, although under the disadvantage of wild birds, a dry easterly wind, and a bad scent.

Newport, Sept.7.

The steam packet, Union, Capt.Groves, in her voyage round the Isle of Wight, on Tuesday last, got on a rock near Freshwater. She had nearly 100 passengers on board, who were very much alarmed; but we are happy to add, after some exertion, she got off, and proceeded on her voyage. The spirits of the company were very much depressed, and could not be rallied again during the voyage.

The 87th Regiment, at Albany Barracks, received their arrears of pay on Wednesday last; and in the evening, when a number of the men were returning to the barracks, having drank rather freely, one of them jumped on a brewer's dray that was passing, and while sitting astride a tub on it, he lost his balance, and fell under the wheel, which passed over his chest. He was carried to hospital, but his life is despaired of.

Two persons were convicted on Saturday last in the penalty of �100 each for carrying smuggled spirits. And on Monday an inquest was held at Guildhall, to try whether some property at Whittwell did or did not belong to William Stone the younger, who had been fined by the Court of Exchequer in the penalty of �500 for selling smuggled spirits; when after a patient investigation of 7 hours, it was proved the property in question did not belong to him.

Three professional gentlemen of this city have in consequence offered themselves as candidates for the office, viz. Mr.William H.Coates, Mr.Sampson, and Mr.John Winzar.

Devizes, Sept.6 - A very respectable woman in appearance (and hitherto in character) has been this week committed to our Old Bridewell. She has lately been living at the house of Ernle Warriner, Esq. of Concok as housekeeper, in which capacity she lived formerly with many families of distinction, and by whom she was highly recommended. Mrs.Warriner, it appears, had given her permission to visit her friends for a few days; but on the evening previous to her intended departure, a communication was made which induced Mr.Warriner to get up early on the following morning and search her basket. He there discovered eight ancient china cups and saucers, his property. On the charge of stealing cups and saucers, she has been committed for trial. She has property, we understand, the interest of which produces her �50 a year.
