When marl was Winkled into the maim, the question of slavery tees agitated with as meek ardoer and more bitternew than ems sew. And yes may rely epos It, as son as the rent Amides the matter at hem, which, by the way, will i ls aT ru peetiability be decided by the people of the territories theeeselms, there will be " as fad of motroverey." We ham news to-day from Neale*, Usenet America, and the West ladies. Our dates trees Ilezieo are to the 19th lasteat. We kern that public affairs there were very as. nettled, and that another oreolatioa was at hand. We pre sume the party Is power bee 'speeded ICI the money it re. (Weed Irma th United Bits, and is no logger able to boy tranquillity. It bas bees sraggesed by many pusses that it Hannon is overthrown, the sew party will repudiate the late treaty with the United States mad go to war again. All this government will have to do will be to advance the next in. 'Want to the pony in power, and there will be no further breach of the peace. The United States steamer hie was at Vera Cr., ea the 2kd, waiting the arrival of Mr. Clifford to carry him to Norfolk. A French brig, the Pumas, suspected of having ems glad a quantity of specie on hoard, was searched, and 4,000 dollars, being found on board, were seised by the authorities. It seems that Vera Cruz is not very submissive to the general government. There has bees an outcry and • prenuncionento against the monopoly of tobaeeo. To this the government responded by a threat of form, and the Vera Crux people are preparing to meet it. We also learn that the Mexicans there were very friendly to the Moan. was, and equally inimical to the English. In cam of a dif ficulty, they probably think our countrymen will indive *welly at WA lend them their assistance. is It mid the markets were overstocked with goods, and that the tariff would be so altered as to admit those goods now probibi. ed. The Americans are laying out villages along the northern beak of the Rio liranile, in expectation of a thriving trade with Mexico. A repot reaches us that the city of Tampico hoe declared Resit indenendest, acd seeks to be annexed to the Mittel Stare. This memos will be fruitless. It is quite impas sible, taus Uwe were ready to acquire a little more land, to violate our treaty with MealoO, by which we have agreed te /meet her present boundaries. Ard in connexion with this it may be as well to say, is consequence of the rumours which here prevailed, that an armed expedition from the United States was about to proceed to the Rio Grande, and there futm a new republic, our secretary of state has written a lettn r to the United States district attorney, in Louleiaaa, requirino him to see that no such expeditica be allowed to premed from that state. In that letter be repeats the pro. *ions of our elating laws in relation to the neutrality we are board to preserve with nations with whom we are at pew. Your readers have been advised of those provisions la one of my previous letters. I only marvel that whoa the wagon or Ireland was proposed in this city, the secretary did set think of issuing similar ingructions to the district attorney bete. Perhaps the prwideutial election was too nem attend. A Pe Tent of American volunteers, under the command st Col. Witi , e, has been rained by the government of Ye saw, for the papaw of keeping otf the Indians. The plan will, no doubt, be suew seal. " One blast upon the (Yankee) bugle-born is worth a thousand (of theist men." From Vera Cruz coiriderabie quanrities of spade are be ginning to arrive at thin port. The first large arrival was daring yesterday, and others ere expected. My guesses' . as to our local elections have roved to be pretty accurate. There is no longer any doubt that the whip have carried the states of Pennsylvania and Ohio. The change in Pennsylvania is most surprising, since the democratic party have always been certain of the state by from 20,000 to 20,000 majority. In Ohio the whip ve trey has sot bees so deckles, but considering the lamed made on the party by the free soil question, it is a wonder it has been successful at all. At the preeidestial election there will be three electoral tickets Wired to the Teton • and it is vary evident that if the whirrs poll se many votes tit= as they have polled now, they must stoesrd, since the dem critic party will split epos Cam and Vas Bares, who are democrats betb.—Arcoeles *Nebo. The view team of the election by thinking afoot all parties is to this effect, — that General Taylor will be our next presi dent. I will add that if thin so turns out, we shall have an upright end honourable administration of the government, sad our friendly relations with otner nations will be main taised. . . . . . In our own city the public attention is kept alive by many local incidents. Thus we have a project to en liege our marine parade by the addition of many eves mule by filling in to a certain extended line. This promenade is considered by us one of our most bean tifal places. It was once the site of a fort and outworks, and defended the city in the olden time. It is memorable for its being the point mocked by the Asia man-of-war in our re volutionary and colonial struggle, and it is filled with beautiful trees, under which, in summer time, those who like to snuff the ess breeze mist do congregate. At either terminus of its exterior line, an arch in form, our Matinees depart for Staten Island, the towns on the Raritan, and those along Long Island Sound. The lovers of antiquity exclaim against any alteration of the battery, while others contend that it will be far more beautiful than ever. We intaglio the pro ject will be carried through. It is in accordance with the spirit of the people, and will give employment fur some yens to • large number' of working men. Another subject of local interest is the sudden influx of va lush's paintings from Germany. Several costly collections have arrived already for preservation, not for axle. It mew the German muses are frightened at the vicinage of evolutions. They are welcome to our shores, and we will maim theme kind reception and " trope of friends." As I elms this letter, 1 perceim that a telegraphic des patch has arrived from New Orleans. It states that the nesse, had brought later dates from Mexico. The informa tion is brief, bat is confirmatory of previous rumoun that a revolution has been actually attempted, and that the govern ment defeated any decisive movement by • timely display of troops and cannon. Iturbide, a young officer of some note, with many others of his clue, was mental, being charged with the design of misstating Oen. Santa Anna. The information which I nave given you in a former part of the letter in relation to the affair at Tipple* is confirmed by the fact that Goneral linstemesta is raising 4,000 men to arrest the progress of revolt in that gaarter. Connected with our own national affairs, we have to-day a story afloat that our government is endeavouriog to pur chase the island of Cuba from Spain. As our present aimi- Distention belongs to the order of progressives and agaves am, we should not in the legal be surprised to learn that it has sounded the Spanish ministry en the sabiect. No action, however, can take place definitively without the consent of Comities. Truth compels mete say that I believe the purchase of Cuba would he popular will a large number of th.. people of the Oates, and in met agreeable to the moot intelligent of the Ramos. The island is owe( the finest in the world, and ittaly requires development to be a perfect treasure. Fee my own part, I think the extension of our territory beyond the wants of our population, and of our laws and institutions to trees (mien in descent, language, and religion, is not ealy simile, but absurd. Snide., as we extend our out puts, we upon es:selves to ussocenoty dialeultiee with other nations. We alio notke that a eautplaiat has bon made by some of the inhabitants of Lower Canada south of the St. Law. teen. de offsista — , of an obstruction exi•iting in the outlet of Lake Champlain. The department has re ferred the matter to the Governor of Vermont, and he has cited the sometime of the legislature to the subject. This is rather a novel mods of procedure if I undentand it, and is gait* irrespective of the rides of diplomatic intercourse. The somplaint should doubtiese have been made through your Piaster, but the probability is that this, "cut across the ha," will be better than going round by the usual road. Possibly • committee from Missiegeoi will attend the session of th e legialeture and succeed in having some law posted which will step the mountsineen from interfering with their Comadia beittoen's rights below.

Tin NATIONAL SOCIZTT FOR EDUCATION.—The committee of this society have issued a report, whence it ap pears that during the Mat live years accommodation has been provided in natienal schools for 265,642 scholars ; that the total expenditure in building schools and teachers' residences his been 768,0004., of which about one-sixth is contributed by the society, and about two-sevenths by the committee of council en educating'; that, in five normal institutions, viz., three for schoolmasten and two for schoolmistresses, 1,042 students hate received proper training ; and that, if the ra tio Mae list two years should be sustained, the society will henceforth tend out annually upwards ot 200 trained teach ers ; that national diocesan training institutions have been provided, with the advioe and help of the seedily, at Chester, Yak, Durham. Carmarthen, Warrington, Winchester, Sallsbary, Lichfield, Chichester, tic. The report concluded with an earliest appeal to the public foe support, the means at the disposal of the National Society for the building and improving of schools in the country being entirely exhausted. EDUCATIONAL REFORM AT OSFORD.—It has been stated upon good authority that the board of heads of houses have taken up the question of educational referee, and that they contemplate early in the ensuing Lent form bringing before 4:commotion a comprehensive measure far more ex tensive than the one recently brought forward at Cambridge, and which will not only affect candidates for honours, but also the general sass of students. - - - - - PROPOSED NEW COUNTY PRISON.—At the Maryle bone vestry on Saturday, Mr. Helton having been called to the elude, and the parochial receipts and disbursements for the week having been read and approved of, Mr. Williams (late )LP. for Coventry) begged to be informed by the county 'magistrate present whether there was any truth in the report that it was heeded to erect a new county prison, at an enormous expense, (or the purpose of enabling the authorities to carry oat their newfangled separation system ? It was said that C.ldbath.tieldspr:son was to be thrown down, and that a new prison would be erected.—Sir Peter Laurie said that it was true that s •ch a proposal was contemplated, which, if carried into execution, would entail upon the rate payers the expedites of 150,0001. ; and if the Pentonville system were adopted in the new prison it would increase the annual expenditure 15,000!., while the county was indebted 300,0001., and the county rates amounted annually to 70,0001., which twenty years ago only figured 40,0001. But be was happy to state that the proposition to erect the new prison was defeated; yet Messrs. notch end RCMP, the magistrate. who brought it forward, were not to be baf fled, and therefore declared that they would petition govern ment in its favour. In order to attach popularity to it, the parties desirous for its success spread a report that go vernment was favourable to the new building and the sepa rate system. That he emphatically denied, as well as the report that it was intended to build barracks on the site of the present prison. He inquired at the Horse Herds re 'peeing the latter report, and was informed that there was mot the slightest for it. He was astonished at any poor pen= asp for workhouse relief, when, by com mitting Maas, mad obtain good living in Coldbath-tlelds, and the beet in Pentonville, when the support of each cri minal cost 351., and where he has a room to himself neatly fitted-up, end supplied with the luxury of hot and cold water. Sir P. Laurie condemned the separate system, ridi culed the idea of converting, in this country, felons into saints, and hoped that all the metropolitan parishes would unite in opposing the project of erecting a new county prison —Mr. Elliott, deputy-lieutenant of the county, assured the board that the reepayen need not be apprehensive, for no sew prison would be built. But, at the same time, he ex pressed himself favourable to the prisoners sleeping in separate apartments.—Mr. Williams moved the appoint ment of a committee to inquire into the amount of the county rite, and the mode of its expenditure.—The motion was carried, and a committee appointed. CUoLL&t.—On Saturday the Board of Health received information of the following new eases: Stepney, 1, fatal; Lambeth, 3, 1 fatal; Southertuk, 4; Camber• well, 2, fatal ; Ovenwich, 2 ; Hackae-rood, 1 ; lloniton 1; Edinburgh, 25, 14 fata l; North and South a r t k h i r 171 fataL Total new emu, 54 ; 22 fatal. - from ell other satins, I thßik the TAM in Amur days ter shown how mei straps end better the cause of the Poles is thee that don ether mike ; bow they have COW batted, not meg* like ealards , Pontegame, or Frame, to =hada or e stabl ish a peculiar hem of geeenement, but to rid their esnally from the dime and idelerable yoke of the foreigner.

It is in the case of Esther Powell, de ceased, who is reported to have died at Abergaveany, where she ezecuted her will and codicil—the one signed in tW name of Powell, the latter paper in the acme of Watkins—and that en affidavit was made by the clergyman of that town, stating that he had witnessed the two instruments, and that Powell and Watkins were the same person. Now, sir, I beg to in form you that I, the vicar of Abergavenny, never attested either of the Eceiumeate shaded se, nor ever made soy sib. davit on the subject.

Mr. Deputy Peacock presided, and, in addressing the gentlemen present, an nounced that their prospects were of an encouraging cha racter. The Lord Mayor had given them most cordial sup port, and promised to attend the ball with the Lay Mayoress", as had M. de Beaumont, the French minister, and many other distinguished persons.—Lord Dudley Stuart mid : I am rejoiced at seeing here so many members of the committee since reading the attack on us which was placed before me on sky entering the room. The Polish ball at Guildhall must be of no small consequence wh. not only the Morning Post declares war upon it, but even the giant of the peens, the Times, devotes a leader to the subject, and opens spas as his formidable battery. Thus bombarded, we meat defend ourselves as well as we can ; your presence Isere shows that yon at least, are not intimidated nor disheartened ; and I 'believe we shall have little difficulty in making such a defence as will be felt to be satisfactory by all who will inquire into facts and take a calm view of the matter. The article in the Timm of this day contains some statements which are absolutely untrue; and i am really surprised that a paper generally so well informed should have fallen into such mistaken. Thus it propagates the im pression that the Poles are at liberty to return to their own country. This notion it is which indispose' people here to assist the Poles; this idea it was which prevailed when the reduction of the parliamentary grant was pressed in the House of Commons. But it is not the fact The Poles have it not in their power to return home. The Timm says in the article from which I am reading, " Prussian Poland is open to the exiled patriots, even it its Russian neighbour be closed against them." That is a mistake. Prussian Poland is not open to the Poles who are here; Prussian Poland is only open to Poles who are natives of Prussian Poland, and none of the exiled patriots who belong to Russian Poised are allowed to enter Prussia. Now, all those belonging to Prussia, with some very few exceptions, have returned home. The same is to be said of those helong.ng to Austrian Poland. The last time I ad dreamed the committee I mentioned the case of a Polish re fugee who not long aso kept a shop in Piccadilly, and who, having this summer (impelled by a sort of and desire of re visiting his native couutry) ventured into Russian Poland, Yeas immediately captured and hung. 'the Times thinks that at 'by rate the Poles can go to Fence, and says France "will doubtless) employ them in many useful capacities." Here again the Times is mistaken. Heartily do I wish the writer of that paper would persuade General Cavaignae to give such employment to the Poles now here. If ho could do that there would very soon be no mere Polish refugees in England. The short fact is, no Polish refugee is allowed to go from England to Prance ; if he attempts it he is ar rested as soon as he lands, and straightway sent back hero again. Toe Times speaks as if no refute* , had ever received so much assistance as the Poles, and asks " to what other body of men we can point as having been !twee-fourths kept by us daring a period of 16 yeses ?" A reference to the par liamentary accounts would show a long array of forefiners, Frisch, Dutch, Toulonnese, C osican, American, Spanish, re lieved by the nation, all of them much more than 16 years— many of them ever since the beginning of the o ntury—and many, be it noted, still continuing to be relieved with larger sums than are allotted to the Poles. The allow ances granted to the Poles are considerably less in amount than those granted to any other refugees.

COLLISION Oil THE LANCASHIRE AND YORKSHIRE RAILWAT.-0* Friday afternoon an accident of • very alarming character occurred upon the above line. The express train, whisk loaves Hachdale for Manchester at 25 ntiontre pu t 3 p.m. and is due at the Middleton station en the Oldham Junc tion at 40 minutes past 3, came in eight of the latter station at its usual time. Whilst going at its full speed, and just before reaching the point', the engine driver noti ad a coal train in front of him. Seising that a collision was inevitable, he immediately shut off the steam, and tried to make the collision es dight as possible. The engine, however, dashed into the fifth waggon of the coal train, smashing it into a hundred pieces; at the same time the engine -tender and the whole of theoarriages were more or len shattered. The wet/gannet the coal train were also forced off the line, and the mangers in the express train (about forty in number) were all thrown from their seats and driven against each other. A lady and two gentlemen were se verely injured, and one party had several of his teeth knocked out. The other passengers escaped with bruises, more or leas severe. The accident was owing entirely to the raiamanagement of the driver of the coal waggon, who, when he saw what had taken place, took to his feet, an d made his escape. His duty was to have waited for the ex press train to issas the points before he ventured on the line ; but, in s 'to of the deal which was put up, he seemed de termiaed to risk the hem of the passengers as well es his own. The polio* were immediately sent in search of the driver. The passengers, after waiting nearly two hours, were taken to Manchester hy the Oldham train.

SHIRE.___ - - ----- REPRESENTATION OF THE WEST RiDING.—A meeting of the delegates from the several polling districta,cot vested by the executive committee appointed at the meeting of liberal electors held lust week, was held on Friday, at Wakefield, to receive the reports from the several districts. F. Carbatt, the late Mayor of Leeds, presided. After the reports had been received, the second addrees of Mr. C. W. Wentworth Fitswilliam was read and canvassed, and it I MIS tv. 'staidly resolved" That the second address of the Hon. C. W. Wentworth-Fitswilliam is unsatisfactory to the dele gates roost, and they cannot recommend the electors to give him their ',import." Tne exveutive committee, consist. ing of the delegates from Leeds, were deputed to wait upon Mr. Fitswilliam to make known to him this resolution, and to request him to retire from the candidateebip for the re proknotion of the Ridinx, so es to make way for a gentle man whose political opinions ware mare in accordance with the views of the gentlemen who met at Normanton on the 17th September. SUICIDE OF A Lit.Ellii774AN-illeßev. W. Browne, of St. John's, Oxford, and for two 'airs past curate of St. Stephen's, Swinton, one of the suburban districts of Not tingham, committed suicide on Friday last. The deceased, who woe of good family, and much esteemed by his vicar and parishioners had, about six months ago, formed ths ac quaintance of the Rev. B. 801 l Vicar of Pentlow, Faux, to whose dauchter, a yoang lady of about sixteen, he showed much attention, becoming at length a constant visitor at the house. On Thursday morning, previous to leaving Not tingham for Woodborough, on a visit to a friend, the de ceased wrote to Miss Bull, inclosing her a handsome present, which, with the letter, she placed in the hands of her father, who the same day wrote a note in reply, which in friendly terms thanked Mr. Browne for the kindness he had shown his daughter, hit begged of him to discontinue his suit, at least for the present, on account of her extreme youth. Upon Mr. Browne's return from Woodborough on Friday morning this communication produced a state of frenzy that led to the catastrophe in question.—At the inquest held on Saturday before C. Swann, Esq., several witnesses deposed , as to tile excitement of the deceased on receiving the note referred to.—John Jackson, gunsmith, deposed that shortly after three o'clock on Friday deceased came to his shop and s pistol for 255 , with some shot of the largest Ca r t :i ss f4ak of powder, a me caps, and wadding. Whilst witness was serving another customer deemed loaded the pistol, and then asked at what distance it would kill a man. Witness replied that he did not know, but that it would "make him tremble on the other side the street." De ceased then left the shop like a man in haste, but without manifesting any observable agitation or ex citement.—Elizabeth Berry, daughter of the keeper of the Castle lodge, deposed that deceased came te the grounds about four o'cloca on Friday. Some 20 minutes afterwards, she went up to the ruins, and on looking through a window into one of the rooms of the castle, sew a large pool of blood on the ground. The body of deceased was after wards found with the pistol grasped in the left hand. Mr. White, surgeon, described the wand, which was in the forehead, the shot having entered the brain.—Dr. Aldersen (superintendent of the Nottingham umiak Asylum) had known deceased about nine months. Had frequently noticed his manner to be very peculiar, and had remarked that he should not be surprised if he went in sane.—After a brief consultation, the jury returned a verdict of " Temporary inanity. KENT. THE DIAMOND STEAM•PACICET COMPANY held the sannatigeneral court of proprietors at Gravesend, on Friday last. The report stated that the balance in hand enabled them to propose a dividend of 6 per cent. ; this dividend wee subsegaently declared, and Mr. Birchall having been appointed managing director, with a salary of 2001. a year, anal the directors and auditors having been re-elected, the meeting separated. IRELAND. Donmer, Nov. 11. The affair at Clonmel (which we reported on Satur day) does not appear to assume any importance beyond that which would atta-h to the assemblage of a 1.4)- bon lodge, and the contemplated Coneute of a set of ribbon delegates. For this the public was quite pre pared, for while on the one hand the ferment in the popular mind in July last could not have been ex pected to subside without further effervescence, on the other hand those who looked at all below the surface must have been convinced that nothing formidable could ever come of it. The " Ballingarry men," peasants, who were en gaged in the affair of Farinroiy, have been totbe num ber of fourteen released on their own recognisance* to appear when called on. They have been in prison now fourteen weeks. The only prisoners of their rank remaining now in custody are Power, Smith, and Lyons. The latter was wounded in one of the colli sions with the police. Your readers will recollect the attempt made last Friday week to assassinate Mr. William Armitage Moore, agent to Lerd Annesley'e estates, in Cavan. That gentleman, with an energy which proves him a determined men, assembled the tenantry at the rent office, in Cavan, on Tuesday last, when he addressed them with vehement denunciations of the ingratitude which prompted those who procured the wicked attempt, and boldly assured them of his determination not only not to relax in his duties on account of this attack, but in future to be neglectful of that humane consideration for the state of the tenantry which he had exercised hitherto, and which had been thus re warded. Mr. Moore's courageous address is thus given in a local paper. Unfortunately it has not yet, at least, procured the arrest of the intended easassins. I have called you together (..itd Mr. Moore) to speak of the same. ful and daring outrage which use committal upon me on Friday lost. I appointed to go on that day to your neighbourhood to receive rests. I did this to ease you trouble, and DM to drag you from your burintea into Owen.

SCOTLAND. GLASGOW 1.01 U) PROVOSTBiIIP.—On Friday last, James Audersm, was elected Lord Provost of the city of Glasgow, in room of Alexander Rastie, Rm., M.P., re signed. Mr. Rutin had resigned from the pressure of labour attendant upon the offices of city representative in parliament and chief msgistrate. It was generally desired, however, that he should remain in office as a private mem ber, and he was accordingly started by his friends foe the second ward, but t.) the astonishment of all a chartist, com monly called " Rory O'More"—in other words, James Moir, defected the M.P. for the city. Moir is the first chartist who bas made his appearance in the city council. PROVINCIAL. LANCASHIRE. Mn. SHARMAN CRAWFORD M.P., met his consti tuents at the Public Hall, Rochdale, on Friday evening, to render an wring of his stewardship for the put year in parliament, and, in compliance with his annual custom, to give them an opportunity of calling upon rim to resign if diasatiafled with his voti s. A great portion et the hon. gen tleman's speech was taken up with reconciling his coons on Irish questions to his English cons. itoenta He referred particularly to tne repeated applications made by the present government to parliament for coercive measures against the people of Ireland, whilst they had constantly postponed all their promised remedial measures for th t grievances of that unhappy people. He juttified his oppoeition to the government en some of these coercive measures, by alleging that it wu not from a wish to encourage agrarian mange and crime, bat be cause when such measures were adopted towards the one coun try there was al ways a fi ar that they might be made applicable to the other, as in the last bill altering the law of treason, wnich, though ostensibly obtained to remedy • defect in the Irish law, was made applic.ible to the whole United King dom. Again, the postponement of all rem dial measut whilst stringent coercive IYIPI were so promrly grunted, had resulted in three-fourths of the people being disaffected to wards British power, and English tax-payers were burthened with the payment of an immense sum for the military occu pation of Ireland. The principal remedial measure for Ire lard was und int:Redly the land question, the state of things in reference to which was undeniabdly an impediment to the empl )yment of labour, beci.use the holler had no security gbr Drama. HATMARSET.—The revival of " Twelfth Night" at this theatre on Saturday evening gave great pleasure to one of the most crowded audiences of the season. It can only be ow. ing to the difficulties attending its representation that this c eneuy is not more frequently performed ; for, when it re ceives anything like justice from the players, our stage scarcely affords a more delightful entertainment. It own bines romantic interest, rich humour, and beautiful and its genial cheerfulness affects the spectator like tgr t eight rY of a bright and sunny landscape. The story . is clearly told, though the &meow* is brought about by incidents so im probable as to be barely within the verge of possibility ; but we easily forgive this in consideration of the animated scenes and amusing displays of character which they serve to intro duce. The perfect resemblance between the brother and aister, Sebastian and Viola, which confounds their identity and causes all the perplexities of the plot, is a thing which has been, though rarely, seen in real life ; but it can hardly ever be realised on the stage; and, if not realised, the dramatic effect is marred. Some of our northern readers may still remember the 'performance of these characters i n the B,din burgh theatre by Mr. Money and hie sister, Mrs. Henry Siddons—a performance commemorated by the au•lior of Waverley." "Flora Mae-Ivor," says Scott, " bore a most striking resemblance to her brother Fergus; so much so that they might have played Viola and Sebastian with the same exquisite effect produced by the appearance of Mrs. Henry Biddo .s and her brother in those characters." But this was, probably, a solitary instants, of a likeness between two performers sufficient for the purposes of dramatic illusion. As the play is generally acted, and as it wall acted on Saturday night, the spectator cannot, even with an effort of imagination, see how Olivia alter felling in love with the **or, could marry the brother, or how the Duke, seeing them together, could ex claim In wonder, " One face, one voice, one habit, and two persons!" Between Mr. Vasidenhoff and Mrs. Kean the mere habit was the sole point of resemblance; there being nese at all in face, voice, or person. This, of course, could not be helped, but yet it seriously damaged the effect of the perfornanos. One of Shikspeare's principal commentators (Dr Johann, if we remember right) has attacked the cha racter of Viola as bold and indelicate—mo-t unjustly, we humbly think. She is one of the most charming of the great dramatist's female creations, exquisitely feminine in the innocent purity and maidenly sen sitiveness which mark her every word and action ; and these features were probe - ly never more sweetly displayed than by Mrs. C. Kean, whose melodious voice and graceful utterance gave new beauty even to the poetry of Sbalespeare. The excessively difficult character of 31alvolio was well acted by Mr. Webster, though perhaps he made it too ridiculous. Malvolio, though his inordinate vanity and ambition make him the ready victim of a most clumsy trick, is in other respects a man of sense, at the head of a great household, and high in his mistress's regard, which she tes tifies towards him to the very last. He is not a mere comic character introduced for the purpose of exciting mirth, and mast not be so exhibited even when under the influence of his aboard hallucination. Sir Andrew Areeetwek, with his self-satisfied is quite a character for Keeley ; the jolly, rollicking Sir Toby, that strange compound of folly, wit, and shrewdness, found a very tolerable representative Is Tilbury; and Maria, the clever, intriguing chambermaid, could scarcely have been in better hands than those of Mrs. Hamby. The lovesick Duke Offillo-..11 part which Shak epeare has enriched with some of the fairest gems of poetry has a tone of elegance, refinement, and romance, which Mr. Howe wss not able fully to itch ; and Miss Reynolds had not the dignity and grace which belong to the noble Olivia. Mr. Wigan, as the Clown, " played the fool" amusingly enough.. The comedy, as a whole, was one of the most agreeable and satisfactory entertainments which have lately been presented to the publk. SADLER'S WELLB.—Otway's tragedy of "Venice Preserved" was played at this theatre on Saturday evening, be the purpose of introdeciag to the Loudon boards a new aspirant to tragic fame, in the person of a 111 r.

Of the higher eider of qualifications Mr. Dickenson poserssee no mean share. Hie conception of the part is natural and un exaggerated. In his reading he evinces natural good taste, improved by careful study: he is in general free from rent, though not wholly so, &Ado:mitt in one or two instances, he 'voids making points, as it is called, aiwiog rather at a cor net and equal representation of the part as a whole. Without closing him amongst the few geniuses of the stage—if any such we have left—at is not too much o say that he will be a useful addition to our list of payers; and, that, in a certain though limited class of characters, be will, with a little more practice, ham few superiors. At the conchuion of the tragedy he was called b,fore the curtain to receive the hearty cougra tulatiorm of the audience. Mire Glyn, who, as the Belvidera played well and Mr. G. Benaett, who, althourh a little too noisy and boisterous occasionally, made a very effective Pierre, were similarly honoured. UNIVERSITY AND CLERICAL. OXFORD, Nov. Il.—Yesterday the Rey. H. J.

EQUITY COURTS—Savcanay. Before the Lard Chancellor. STILES O. GUT.—WILL, —DPFAULT OP ACTING EAR CUTOIL —LIABILITY OF CO-EXICIITOEB.—This appeal from an order of the Vice-Chancellor of England occupied the court the greater part of Friday and all Saturday. The case was this: A testator named Turkey gave all his property, real and personal, to Anthony Guy and two other persons, named Turkey (all of whom he appointed his executors), upon art sin trust., and he directed them, as soon as conve niently might be atter his death, to get in such parts thereof as consisted of book debts and securities for money not ap proved by them. The will contained a clause irdemnffying the trustees against the ten of each other. All the three proved the will, but the management of the trusts was left to Ouy, who was a solicitor in great credit, and had been often entrusted by the testator with large sums, which the testator used to allow to remain in his hands at interest. The balance in his hands at the teetatoes death exceeded 10,0001., for which the testator held his promissory notes and account , able receipts. The Tucker. the co-trustees, never teok any steps to enforce paymeeit of this sum from Guy, and he, a few years after the testator's death, became bankrupt. Some time before that the parties beneficialll interested in the tea. tator's estate filed a bill in the Equity Exchequer against the three trustees and executors. And the chief gan tlets raised in the progress of the suit was whether, under the circumstances, Guy's co trustees were answerable for the losses sustained by the plaintiffs by the inability of Guy to pay the 10,0001. The cause was hand in 1532, by Lord Lyndhurst, then chief heron of the Court of Exchequer on the equity side, and after pointing to certain evidence of acquiescence on the part of some of the plaintiffs in consent ing to leave the money et& in Guy's hande, his lordship directed various inquiries before the master of that caller, declaring at the same time that the co-trustees had by proving the will become liable to make god the loss occa sioned by the bankruptcy are) default of Guy, except in so far as it should be bend that such de'ault was the result of the acquiescence of plaintiffs. The Master in his report stated that there was such acquiescence. Exceptions were t taken by the plaintiffs to the report, and they (after the equity jurisdiction of the Court of Exchequer se , s transferred to the Court of Chancery) came to he &mud by the Vice- Chancellor of England, who disallowed the exceptions. The appeal was against that deciron. Mr. Stuart, Mr. J. Parker, and Mr. Heathfield were t earl for the appellants. Mr. Betbell, Mr. Rill, and Mr. Pitman for the respondents ; Mr. Lloyd, Sir Walter Riddell, and other counsel, appeared for other parties —The Lot said it was a case which required time to consider his judgment.; Before the rlee-Chtutcegor of England. BEAR/FP V. SOVLBY.—VOLI NTAILY SLTTLIIIIIIIT VOID AGAINST CREDITOAS.—II appeared in this eau that ao in strument of assignment, detect the 7th of December, 1842, ' was made between John Milner, a married man, sine. de ceased, and Bliss Quiltos, which recited that the said John Milner andElizaQuilton had for several years past cohabited together, and the said Eliza Quilton had had four children during such cohabitation, who were then living, a n d th a t th e said John Milner had determined to discontiase such co habitation, and was desirous of making a provision for the future maintenance of the said Eliza Quilton and her children and for that purpose had agreed to secure unto her the say meat of the annual sum of 250/. during his life, and to assign to her two several policies of at enrollee effected by him as a provision for the said Eliza Quillen and her children in case she should survive him. The deed of amignment then contained a settlement of the policies according to the in• teation exprees:d in the recital upon Eliza Quilton and her children. Upon the death of John Milner this suit, which was a creditor s suit, WAS instituted for the purpose of hay int the aforesaid deed of assigoment declared void on the ground that it was a voluntary settlement made by the testa tor at a time when he was largely indebted. The bill charged that at the time such assignment was executed the testator was insolvent or embarrwred, or wu indebted to di vers persons in considerable sums of money, and that the same was executed by him without any pircuoiary or other good or valuabir consideratioe, and it wu there fore void as against the creditors of the testator, who were entitled to have the said _ assurances appplied towards the satsfaitioa cd their debts.—The Vios-Chancellor said he thought the representations in the bill were quite sufficient to chow that the testator was indebted at the time of making the voluntary settlement ; it was stated that he was embarrassed and insolvent. The opinion of Lord Hardwicke in the case of " Townsend v. Windham" (2 Ves. Sen. 10) was very decided, be had said "he knew of no ease where a man, indebted at the time, made a voluntary conveyance to a chilit without consideration and died indebted, but that it should be coasidered part of his estate for the benefit of his creditors." Ills Honour thought there was no doubt upon the present case ; id fact, it was much worse for the defendant, the =fortunate woman, than he had at first imagined, for in the same voluineof Vesey, in a case of " Priest v. Parrot," Lord Hardwicke refused to oountentrice the provision for a woman who had been living with a married man. This case stuck his Honour more forci bly, as it appeared that in the BtbVolliille of Lord Campbell's " Lives of the Chancellors," he had sele , :ted it as • prominent case, for the purpose of showing what WAR the turn of Lord Ilardwieke's mind as to his deeinons. The decree must be that the settlement was void es against creditors, and the money in the hands of the ezecutors to be assets for the pay ment of the testator's debts. IN RI CROCEMON.—APPLICATION FOR THE DISCHARGII OP • PRISONER COSISIITTRD FOR CONTESIPT.—An applica tion was made in this we by Mr. Ilsc,n, for the discharge of a prisoner who had been committed for contempt, in not paying a sum of money under an order of the court. It ap peared that the prisoner had become • baukrupt, ant all penons interested in the suit bad proved their debts against his cstute.—The Vice-Chancellor se.d I e could not make the order unless the next friend in the suit would appear and mount.

LORD DI MAULEY.—PRACTICE.—The bill in this cue had been amendeu under a special order, but nit within the fourteen days prescribed by the orders of 1845, Mr. Walpole, on u former day, moved that the amendments might be struck out on this account, citing a case heard before the Master of the 12,11 s on the day pre viously as an authority to that eff,ct.—Mr. Forster, for the plaintiff, contended that the rourtt.en days did not apply whore spiels] leave was given be the court to amend but his Honour thought he ought to decide according to the cue cited, giving, however, the plaintiff leave to move to amend, or to have the amendments restor,d. Mr. Forster now moved accordingly, and lifter hearing counsel for the de fendants, the Vie-Chance:Mr directed the amendments to remain, and the costs to be costa in the cause.

BATLDON.—EGUITE OF CHILDREN TO A. armament' OUT OP A FUND IN COURT, STANDING TO TRY ACCorliT OP THEIR MOTHER, A DECRAMID DEFEN DINT.—This was a suit to administer the estate of Richard Bayldon, who had died intestalc. J..ce Ackley and her hus band were made parties to the bis in respect of her interest as one of the next of kin of the intestate. After appearance, but before answer, Jane Addev died, leaving her husband and an only child surviving, and the suit was then revived against her husband, who had takea out administration to her estate. After this the sums of 3341. 2i. 2d., and 32/.178.6d., which the Master reported to be the share of the intestate's estate to which Jane Addey would, if living, have been en titled, were, by order of the court, c 'ivied to the account of " the share of the deemed defendant, Jane Addey." The husband now presented • petition for payment to himself of these MM, and the question was, whether he was entitled to them as representative of his deceased wife, or whether the child, in right other deceased mother, had any and what right to a settlement. Mr. Leach, iv support of the petitiou, contended that the equity of the wife and of the child through her to a settlement, was an equity entirely personal to the wife, to be enforced or not, at her option; and that upon the death of the wife, without exercising such option, th' I.gal right of the husband mot prevail. " Lloyd e. Williams" (1 Maddock, 404). "De la Garde o. Lempriere" (6 Besvan. 347).—Mr. Bird, on behalf of the child, contended that the wife's equity attsched to the property on the filing of the bill, and that upon her death, without having waived such equity, it continued for the benefit of the daughter.— His Honour reserved his judgment upon the question, and observed that as the fact of there being only one child of the marriage was verified only by affidavit, it would be necessary, should his opinion be against the right to a settlement, to direct an inquiry as to the number of children before giving final judgment upon the point.

MYERS v. COIREAD BILLS or EXCHANGE —This was an action by the endorser of a bill of ex change for one hundred and one pounds against the acceptor. The defence was Oct the defendant had re ceived no consideration for the bill ; that he had deposited it with the firm of Messrs. Challis and Phillips f...r the pur pose of hiving it discounted, and that they had passed it to the plaintiff after it had been dishonoured. It appeared that defendant bad been in the habit of allowing a lugs halance to remain in 1.18 banjo of Messrs. Challis and Phillips, who had formerly carried on the business of tailors in Cornhill, and who in some degr.:e acted as the de fendant's bankers. In the year 18t5 defendant, being ill want of money, induced Phillips to draw a bill upon him in the name of the firm for 101/., which he accepted, and which was made payable at toe house of Mr. Challis, broker. Phillips su bs equently took the bill to Messrs. Oyer bury and Dixon, to get it ditcou nt,d. These gentlemen refused the accommodation, and further. Messrs. Challis and Phillips being indebted to them in a large amsunt, kept the bill in their possession. Defendant, it was stated, was not informed that the biil remained unpaid, and, therefore, not providing for it, in consequence it was dishonoured. Shortly alter, Messrs. Challis and Philips dissolved partnership, enured into n deed of composition w ith *heir creditors and separated upon no amicable teems. Fcr the pl a i n tiff i, t was contended that clearly from the docks of Messrs. Challis and Phillips the bill had been duly catered to the credit of the defendant, and that, consequently, there was no gr ou nd f o r the defence. The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff, at the lame time expressing their opinion that the bill had been given by the defendant for the purpose of being discounted. COURT OF COMMON FLEAS.—SATURDI,T. Sittings in Beam. HOwDIN V. OTANDISH.—LIABiIair OF EIBERIPIII.—Mr. Justice Coltman delivered the judgment of the court in this cue. It was an action against the high sheriff of Lancashire, tried at the Liverpool Spring Aerizes of last year, when a verdict was found for the plaintiff for lOW. damages. The declaration stated that ono Keller was indebted to the plain tiff ; that a writ of espies under the I & 2 Viet., o. 110, was granted against Keller at the suit of plaintiff and delivered to the defendant, within whore bailiwick Keller was and might have been taken ; and that defendant wrongfuhy re turned that Keller could not nor might have been taken. The pleas were-1. Not Reilly ;2. That Keller could not nor might have been taken. At the trial it appeared that the;plaintiff accompanied Lawton, the sheriff's officer in whose hands the writ was, to the " POW s i'las . iquea" at Liverpool, for the purpose cf pointing out Keller, and that by the sensa tion of plaintiff his arrest was not attempted during the per formance, and that pointing out by mistake thewrong person at the close of the performance Keller altogether escaped; and further, that there was • kn awn preconcerted plan on the part of the company to prevent the arrest, had it been at tempted during the performance, which would have ren dered the endeavour useless. A role for a new trial bad since been obtained and argued. The first querion was whether the presence of the execution creditor and his sanc tioning the course taken was an 'sense to the sheriff avail able on the present pleadings. Now the duty which re sulted from the delivery of the writ to the sheriff was to arrest Keller absolutely and net u; on request, and if a re quest were alleged on the declaration it was idle and super fluous matter. In conformite with this rule the defence contended for was not available upon the issue raised, though it might have been otherwise upon a plea of leave and license, or upon some other form ol plea statirg the special circus genets. Next it was objected to the summing up of the judge that he had laid down the duty of the sheriff too widely. TM court thought otherwise. The principle o f l aw as applicable to the present case was that the sheriff was bound to provide such * force as would enable him to effect the capture in alai , . of any resistance which he might have resson to expect. Re might raise the posse comi•atue. It had been observed the 'lurid was bound to this duty because of the danger of fraud, and also of the disgrace of the King's writs remaining unexecuted. It was true in the eau of moene process the return of a rescue was • good return after capture effected. Treat was out of indulgence to th* sheriff, because he could not always have the posse coml.:etas with Lim ; hut nth indulgence ought net to be exter. led. The only ether To staining ground was that the erre:let was against tke evi dence; but the judge who presided was not diseatisfusd. As to all the grounds, therefore, the rule would be dis charged.
