CHRISTMAS CUS nom ma's sworn son 1525. This is the time when we so - emphatically wish each ether " a merry Christmas and a happy New Year!" and both in town and country good eating and drink big and conviviality in general are much encouraged. In vain, however, do we look for " The jolly Wessel - Bowl," and " The Bore's Heade,"--" with garlandes gay and rosemary?' Popular superstitions and cus toms may generally be traced back to heathen times, for on theirrites and mysteries were many of the Ca tholic ceremonies afterwards engrafted ; and to the Sa turnalia we are, or rather our ancestors were, probably, indebted for some of our Christmas pastimes. The Reformation first injured their popularity, and the age of Puritanism gave them a fresh shock. It was even or dered by Parliament, December 24, 1652, That no observation shall be had of the five and twentieth day of December, commonly called Christmas Day ; nor any solemnity used or exercised in Churches upon that day in respect thereof." They now appear to be_ neg lected by society in proportion to its degree of polish; and in the metropolis and its immediate neighbourhood are little encouraged by the higher classes, and but partially by the• middling ranks, while among the lower portion of the people they frequently degenerate into debauchery. In the country, especially in the far Western and Northern counties, Christmas is yet kept up with much spirit ; the yule log still crackles on the hearth, and " the sirloins of beef, the minced pies, the plum-porridge, the capons, turkeys, geese, and plum. l puddings," smoke upon the hospitable board. Each master of a family, like - the old courtier in the ballad, appears to have "a good old fashion, when Chriatmasse is come, To call in all his old neighbours with bagpipe and drum; With good chrar enough to furnish every old room, And old liquor able to make a cat T ait, and man dumb." "01 rus, g.rendo to aspiciam.' Yet even-there the hand of improvement has been active, and some va-1 limbic relic of ancient festivities is occasionally ushered from the parlour to the kitchen, never more to returat.l The decoration of houses and churches with evergreens) is continued, however, in London ; nor is there st-defi ciency, to the best of our experience, in the demands for Christmas-boxes; the original intention of which was, probably, to enable die poor to partake of the fes tivities of the season, from the gratuities of their more wealthy fellow-creatures—and, GOD forbid ! that, while feasting ourselves, we should not assist our poor neigh bours and dependants to enjoy themselves. Certain nocturnal wandering minstrels occasionally disturb the slumbers of the citizens for a month prior to Christmas, calling themselves Waits; but, " alac k the day !" in stead of playing and singing the good old Carol, our i ears are saluted with Roy 's WO, St. Patrick's Day, or, the latest Quadrille tune. In many parts of the coun try, especially in the West, the Carol is still pro., served, and is sung in the parish churches on Christ mas Day, the singers also going about to the diffe rent houses, blithely caroling such cheering tunes as A Child this day is born. Sit you, merry Gentle men. I saw three Ships come sailing in, &c. &c. London, except some croaking ballad-singer, bawling out, GOD rest you merry Gentlemen, or a like doggrel, nothing in the shape of Carols is heard, though there is a considerable sale of them among the lower classes. Look at the following list of Christmas amusements, given by Burton in his Anatomy of Melancholy, now superseded by Pope Joan, Blind Man's Buff, and Puss in the Corner :—" The ordinary recreations which we have in winter, are cardes, tables and dice, shovel board, cliesse-play, the philosopher's game, small trunkes, billiards, musicke, maskes, singing, dancing, yule-games, catches, purposes, questions, merry tales of errant knights, kings, queens, lovers, lorcls, ladies, giants, dwarfs, thieves, fairies, goblins, friars, witches, and the rest." As to mummers and Christmas plays, unless Grimaldi and the pantomimes be considered as relics, we know not where to fiad them in or near the metropolis ; though formerly a Lord of Misrule, or Christmas Prince was chosen, even in the highest fami lies and most learned establishments ; even our Kings used to join in these sports. Mummers, guisardes on guise-dancers (commonly called geese-dancers), may yet be seen in the country ; and the story of St. George and the Dragon, and the Fair Sabra, is ar.nually repeated, enlivened with the frolics of Old Father Christmas and the Doctor, nho cures " each deep and deadly wound" of the combatants, coming for that purpose " front the furthermost parts of Spain With a little bottle of eleeampaine." These guise-dancers are profusely decorated with ribands, each carrying a naked sword, with the excep tion of the fair Sabra, who is modestly clad in female attire ; and Old Father Christmas and the Doctor, who are the Pantaloon and Clown of the Piece, the ormer being generally disguised by a frightful mask. It is expected that very early in I'ebruary, a Session will be held in the Old Bailey, for the trial of persons charged with offences committed on the high seas, within the jurisdiction of the Admiralty of Great Britain. The snow has fallen on Exmoor, during the last week, full six inches in depth : the weather was then more severe than at any period in the last winter. DARING ROSIRRY.—One of the most daring street robberies that has occurred in the metropolis for some time took place on Thursday evening last, between the hours of five and six o'clock, nearly opposite the gate leading into Gray's-inn. Mr. W. WEST, a solicitor, after leaving his chambers, walked out of the inn to one of the Kentish-town stages, then standing nearly opposite, and while the coachman was in the act of lowering the steps, a short but powerful fellow darted towards Mr. WEST, and seizing his watch-chain, drag ged the watch out of the fob, and endeavoured to make off, at the same time giving the coachman - a tremen duous kick on the shins with a view to prevent pursuit; the latter, however, grappled with the fellow for a mo ment, and finally succeeded in lusec,kiug him down, though he at the same time reacted a stunning blow on the temple from his antagonist, who sprung from the ground, again struck at the coachman, and ran off towards the alleys at the other side, where he found means to secrete himself eifectually, though' quickly pursued. The watch is a valuable gold patent levers • Monday, Mr. Williams, parcel agent, and Mr. Peafs son, a surgeon, attended at the Dublin Police Oftiies- Mr. Williams deposed that he had shipped two boses, directed to Messrs. Assins, London, which were re turned to him that day. Mr. Williams then examined them, and found therein two human bodies. He fur ther stated, that Mr. Pearson called upon him for the boxes, which, he said, contained linen. Informations were lodged against Mr. Pearson, who, is his defence, said, that he was a Student of Surgery in London, and from the great scarcity of subjects, had been induced. to come to Dublin, to procure a supply. fr 1% - ~,.~~ _{ _ ~~-~:.. LAW REPORT. . COURT OF CHANCERY, DECEMBER 24. HENRY FAUNTLEROY. IN THE . MATTE* OP MARSH, STRACEY, FAUNTLEROT, AND GRAHAM. Mr. MONTAGU said,-he held in his hand a Petition this matter, which stated, that a short time ago an ap plication was made to this Court, in consequence of a proposition which had been made by a creditor, to give up property to the amount of about 10,0001. provided it was acceded to without delay, for the purpose of putting an end to all disputes, and • upon condition that all letters and papers of the creditors, in the possession of the bankrupts, should be given up to him; and the former Petition prayed to have it referred to the Com missioners to inquire whether it would be for the benefit of the estate, that the proposition should be acceded to? That prayer was granted ; the matter had since been before the Commissioners, and Mr. Montagu now held in his hind a certificate from the Commissioners, certit fying that it was their opinion that the proposal should be accepted. As for the letters, atc. being returned, they had read them all over, and in their opinion, it did not appear from them, that they could assist in procuring the recovery of any more property ; therefore they thought they might be given up. Mr. Montagu further stated, that this was not a cate which came un der the Act of Parliament, enacting, that where a com position was offered by a creditor, a meeting of all the creditors must be called, to know whether they would consent to accept of that composition? but this was a case in which the creditor consented to meet the whole of the demand the estate of the bankrupts had against him. He did hot think it necessat yto mention the cre ditor's name. His LOIMIKIP desired to see the Petition and certificate. They were handed to his Lordship, and after reading them, his Lordship asked what was the suns insured by the policy ? Mr. Mosiemau said £5OO, which was new worth from £6,000 to £7.000. His Leansmr—But bow will £2,500 be a sufficient satisfaction for the debt alleged to be due? Mr. Moorman—My Lord, the policy itself, and the Navy Bills, which are proposed to be given up, will benefit the estate to the amount of nearly £lO,OOO. His Leaosuir—(after a little consideration)—l cannot order them to de it. Mr. Moseracu—No, my Lord, we don't ask for your Lordship's order to that effect; we only take the liberty of asking your Lord ship's liberty to accept of the proposal. His Leonean-10u may be at liberty to accept of it, but I can't order. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, DECEMBER 24. COULTHREAD V. DAVIS. This was an action brought by the plaintiff, an apo thecary at Lambeth, to recover from the defendant, a cow-keeper, the sum of 801. the value of a horse sold under a warranty of soundness by the defendant, and which was returned as unsound within the time allowed for trial. The defence set np was, that the horse, when sold, was perfectly sound, but that the plaintiff had im properly treated the animal by administering medicine, and driving him out the next day, keeping him stand ing in the rain at the doors of different patients. The Jury found for the plaintiff—Damages, Sit. 10S. DARTNALL V. HOWARD AND GIBES. This was an action brought by the plaintiff to recover the sum of 1,4001. of the defendants, which he had intrusted to them to be invested in annuities on good and sufficient security. The defendants, in the year 1814 or 1815, advanced this money to Henry Michael Gould, Esq. for an annuity of 2161. charged upon cer tain incumbered estates whiCh he had in Ireland, and guaranteed by a Mr. Edward Birmingham, styling himself Lord Athenry, Premier Baron of Ireland. It was alleged, that at the time of granting that annuity, the defendants knew that Colonel Gould was in the inlet of the Fleet Prison, and in circumstances so embarrassed as to be obliged to apply for the benefit of the Insolvent Act its the year 1817—that the security of Lord Athenry was utterly worthless and insufficient—and that no per.' sons who had not some interested motives to gratify would have taken the security of either of them for so considerable a aim. The plaintiff, therefore, contended that he was entitled to recover this money of the de; fendants, as he had lost it entirely through their negli gence. On the other hand, the defendants maintained, that they were not liable to the plaintiff, since the estates were fully equal to the payment of the incumbrances upon them, and stated as a proof of their ignorance of Colonel Gould's insolvency, at the time of the purchase of this annuity, that they had subsequently made eight half-yearly payments of it to the plaintiff on his account. There was a great mass of evidence given in support of the allegations on both sides, and as the case has been already twice tried, and twice reported in our journal, and as the evidence of to-day possessed neither novelty nor interest, we shall merely state, that the Jury re turned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 9331.165.8 d. THE LING V. MIENS. When this cause was called on, Mr. SCARLETT, who appeared for the prosecution, having, without success, applied to the Court to have it postponed, said, as this case, from its nature, must occupy much time, and therefore could not be properly investigated during the present Sittings, he should withdraw the Record.—The Record was then withdrawn. INSOLVENT DEBTORS COURT, DECEMBER sm. James Taylor came hp to be heard on his Petition to be discharged. The insolvent had been before the Court on the 14th instant, when it appeared, that, after he had presented his Petition to the Court, he had gone out of the King's Bench Prison, on a day rule, for the purpose of seeing his wife, who was very ill at Richmond. Mr. POLLOCK, by whom the prisoner's discharge was opposed, contended that he was not entitled to be heard ' on that Petition, as the Act of last Session required that an insolvent should be within the walls of a prison du ring the proceedings on his Petition, and in this case the insolvent had been outside the walls for part of a day. The case stood over, on this objection, for the ,consideration of the Court. On the insolvent coming up to-day, the CHIEF Cow- MISSIONS!' stated his opinion, that the insolvent ; having gone out of the prison during the proceedings on his Petition, could not be heard on that Petition. Commissioners Bowan and LAW declared them ielves of a contrary opinion, in consequence of which the insolvent was heard and discharged. The death of a young lady in Devonshire, in her 18th year,occurred last week, occasioned by a fright, in con sequence of one of her school-mates throwing a spider at her, which crept down her back. Frederick the Great asked a soldier, who•bad a deep cut across his cheek, at a review, At what 4e-house didst thou get that scratch?" "At Coslin, please your Majesty, where your Majesty paid the reckoning." The King was beat at Cosling, in the war of 1756 ; and in 1760 1 the Russians reduced the suburbs to ashes. _ . .i :.~•..~ . _ POLICE INTELLIGENCE. .-...enb.... If 111 Yedirday, 4nikeng Ledger, a clerk in the house of Mr. Meyer, of Great St, Helens, merchant, was charged with having *ppm prietaltritti own me large sums of money. Meyer has been obliged to suspend his payments In conse crevice of severe losses. The prisoner was cooldentially employed by him ; and at the time of his suspending payment, the bills out standing against' him, were of less *Mount than the sum which the prisoner is charged with having embuntled. The plan by which the prisoner contrived to keep the money in bit possession was, it is said by those who have examined the books extremely ingeni ous. Figures were changed to meet the various exigencies, and such is said to have been the prisoner's skill in obliterating, that one figure has been changed into another, and changed back again into the original state without leaving any palpable mark of erasure. At length, the great disproportion which Mr. Meyer's money at his bankees.bore to the demands upon the house, awakened his sus picious, and be soon ascertained that the prisoner bad possessed himself of from ,ffaooo to £lll,ooo, and that the credit of the house was rained.—The prisoner was remanded. ROW.STRERT. r / Yesterday Williams Itilpatriek, the young man charged with rob bing his master, Mr. Macbeath, a jeweller in Ryder's-court, of jewellery to a large amount, and James Willsker, who is charged on *skim of felonionslrreceiving a part of the property, knowing it to be stolen, were brought up and re-examined. Both prisoners were fully committed for trial upon the present charge, and the witnesses all &And over to prosecute. Mr. Hata.' said be could not dismiss' the pawnbrokers without offering a remark or two upon what he deemed their highly repre hensible conduct. He considered it but a very slight remove, in point of culpability, from the prisoner MA RLBOROUG H-STREET. Two young men and three young girls, the eldest of the latter not above 16 years, were brought up to this office; one of the young girls charged as the principal in the following rubbery, and all the others charged as accessaries after the fact, by disposing of a part of the property, , and endeavouring to enticed and prevent the appre- - hension of Ilamwah Pound, the principal. _ The ,robbery was committed in a house of ill fame on a man named Hussey. The articles stolen consisted of the prosecutor's watch, Ws. in money, and all his wearing apparel. Hannah Pound was committed for trial ; and the others, after an admonition from. the Magistrate, were discharged, there not being sufficient evidence to implicate t hem. This young girl, Hannah Pound, is of a highly respectable family, and although very young, much pains and care had been taken by . her friends with her education. Her mother, a most respectable Lady, residing at Hampstead, and her two eldest sisters, young Ladies of the utmost respectability, in point of appearance and demeanour and who are both married to pent lemen holding situations under the Government, and tesiding at Kew (whose names we forbear to mention,), attended the examination, and it was indeed a painful and striking contrast to witness the heart-rending agony of the mo ther and her two respectable daughters, who wept in the bitterest manner the whole time, when compared with the perfect indif ference and, indeed, jocose behaviour of their wretched relative at the bar. When the prisoner was being taken out of the °Mee, her mother and her two sisters threw themselves upon her neck, and .almost became hysterically affected. They afterwards applied for permission from the Magistrate (which was instantly granted) to visit her once more in the lock-up room, before she was sent off to Newgate. UNION•HALL. In the STAR of Wednesday, we gave an account of a robbery committed in the house of Mr. Witinnee, of 5, Wellington Terncei Black friars-road, during the absence of Mr.. W. and his wife at Covent-garden Tbeatre..--Yeaterday an application was made by Mrs. W. at this (face, for a warrant against a 'Vitra= named Mars Ana Ball, for committing an outrageous assault on Mrs. Whitmee, on Thursday bleat. It appears that Mary Ann Ball is tke care sposa of a man named lioneyman, who was suspected of being concerned in the robbery, and who was also stated to have carried on an improper intercourse with Mrs. Whitmee. She (Ball) on Thursday night knocked at Whittnee's door, and asked if Mrs. W. was at home? On being answered is the affirmative, she odd she wished to see her, and the moment Mrs. W. made her appear. ante in the passage, she ran at her like a fury, calling out, " You vile wretch, you have been with Honeyman, my husband, you have—l will give it you," and beat ber dreadfully, and tore her Bair off ber head. Mr. Whitmee came to his wife's assistance, and called the.watcb, and Ball was taken to die watch house. She set two housekeepers to bail her, and she was set at liberty; aud iiss consequence of her not appearing at die Police Mee, this apphca Lion for a warrant was made.—The Magistrate (Mr. Swami?) said, that he would estreat the recognizance of the bad, but his Wonbio the night constable had nut entered the recognizance in due Mm. A warrant against Ball was granted on Mrs. W.'s statement. A letter from Buenos Ayres, dated 4th October, says:—" We have had an extensive import of white cotton goods of American manufacture, which bids fair to supersede the manufacture of the English goods of the same de.cr iption." Friday night last, seven or eight men armed, with their faces blackened, broke into the house of Mr. Robert Burnett, of Fisherstown, by the rear, and forced the servants into the front parlour, where Mr. and Mrs. Burnett were, in which they shut them all up, and pro ceeded up stairs to his bed-chamber, where they took one musket, two cases of pistols; two swords, and a powder-horn ; and after searching another room, where his grandson lay asleep, without awaking him, they de. parted, without offering any violence or demanding or taking off any othet article whatsoever. It is mach to be regretted that such an outrage should commence in this hitherto peaceable county.—Freeman's Journal. Some time back, says a Dublin Paper, a Lady hired a house in street, as if for her own use; the only part of the house then occupied wds the upper floor, where two elderly females lodged. Since that time there have been daily and often nightly meetings of twenty or thirty persons held there, and a constant traversing o$ persons to and fro. As these meetings are mysteriously secret, we are of course ignorant who the persons are, or the purpose for which they meet. About the 26th of October, DONALD APCOLL I a stout man, who belonged to Locligilphead, was employed as one of the hands aboard of the Commerce, luggage steam boat. While aiding in discharging ssheets of copper, he got a small bit of skin driven off the knuckle of his right hand. Accustomed to coarse work and similar occurrences, he paid no attention to the wound at the time. It soon festered, however; from his hand the swelling reached the arm, and latterly the body. In this site, he was humanely accommodated with a bed in the house of Mr. JOHN M`LAISH, vintner at 'the Brou,uielaw, Glasgow. As he was groaning heavily in the night, Mrs. *Luisa, anxious to alleviate the acute sufferings of the poor man, stripped the bindings ( from the wound, washed it with a solution of soap and I.water, and during the night put on 'two poultices. lkl , Com. was taken to the Royal Infirmary, where he languished for some time and died. Unfortunately for Mn.s Allman, when she washed the bandages she had taken from M'CoLL's wounds, there was a break, scarcely visible, in the third finger of her left hand, and when she went to bed, she was seized with a cold shivering through the whole body, and with great pain in the left hand. The disease reached the hand and neat the arm. Lancing, leeches, and all that skilful surgeons could devise, could not stop the progress of the infection, and on Tuesday se'nnight Mrs. *Luau expired, exactly six weeks and twelve hours from the time she began her humane endeavour to ease the bodily sufferings of the unfortunate Gs.uaow Came Marks:, DOC. 10.--There were 551 Bank 'HE LOST rvic.'. While Lord Coat:Mitt" lived in Edinburgh, it stringt accident one morning betel him. It was at that time the custom for Advocates and Judges to dress them. selves in gowns, and wigs, end cravats, at their own houses, and walk to the Parliament House. Th ey usually breakfasted early, and„ when dressed, wer e in the habit of leaning over their parlour windows, for a few minutes before St. Giles bell started the sounding peal of a quarter to nine, enjoying the agree. able morning air, and perhaps discussing the news o f the day. It so happened that one morning; while Lord COALSTOUR was preparing to enjoy his mata tinal treat, two girls, who lived in the second gat abov e , were amusing themselves with a kitten, which, hi thoughtless sport, they had swung over the window, I ) : a cord tied round its middle, and hoisted rrif: for some ti . 'up and down till the creature was getting rather des' Aerate with its exertions. In this crisis his Lordshio bad just popped his head out of the window direclli below that from which the kitten swung, little suspect; log, good easy man, what a danger impended, like the sword of Dionysius, over his head, a hen down came the exasperated animal at full career, directly upon his senatorial wig. No sooner did the girls per• ceive what sort of landing-place their kitten had found s than in terror or surprise they began to draw it up ; but this measure was now too late, for along with the animal, up also came the Judge's wig, fixed full in its determined talons. His Lordship's surprise, on finding his wig lifted off his head, was ten thousand times redoubled, when, on looking up, he perceived it clang. ling its way upwards, without any means visible tohim by which its motion might be accounted for. The astonishment, the dread, the almost 'awe of the senator below—the half mirth, half terror, of the girls above— together with the fierce and retentive energy of puss be. tween—akogether formed a scene to which language Cannot do justice, but which Gummi CRVIIMAIIIII might perhaps embody with consider able effccr. It was a joke soon explained, and pardoned ; but assuiedlythe perpetrators of it did afterwards get many a lengthened injunction from their parents, never again to fish over the window with such a bait for honest men's wigs. The herring boats were uncommonly' successful in the Frith on Saturday. The shoal ranged chiefly be tween Inchkeith and Burntisland, and many of the boats came in with from 6000 to MOO herrings each.
