Star. — London, England, 1825-01-06 00:00:00

Am: FOR THE PAST YEAR. Farewell. thou shadowy Year, farewell! My heart feels light that thou att gone; That last star was thy burial light. That passing wind thy funeral moan. Another Year? It cannot be, Surely, what thou bast been to me ! Twelve months ago, I sat, as now; . . Glorious was the blue midnight, A glad sound came from many bells And never shone the stars more bright; I thought the sky so calm, so clear, night be an omen of the Year ! False sky ! false stars ! shewed they their light Bat as in mockery to the eye, That sought in their bright page to read A something of its destiny? Why looked they beauty, looked they hope, On such a darkened horoscope? For not one wattling shadow told How many clouds were on the wing, Of hopes that fell like autumn fruit, Leaving the sapless boughs behind ! All that has been, may be again And yet lives hi my spirit's pail; I Now, there Is a storm upon the sky, The clouds hang heavy, as with care; The stars have darkened one by one, A moaning sound is on the air ; And be the Year the worst to me, 'Tis but what I expett should be ! Come, thou New Year ! I doubt thy life Will be such as thy birth has been, Ended as it begun, in tears, A desolate and darkened scene! There is now but one only thing Which I can wish, or thou caust bring ! A deep, a lone, a silent grave, Is all I ask, dark Year, of thee; To others hope and pleasure bring, But only bring the grave to me ! The wearied heart, in its despair, Will seek and find a haven there! L. R. t« INSOL ;PEA T DEBTORS' COURT, JANUARY 5. CIRCUITS OF THE COMMISSIONERS FOR RELIEF OF INSOLVENT DEBTORS.

Ebenezer Charles Surz was opposed by Mr. POLLOCK and Mr. HlCkrit, for two creditors, named Aitcbinson and Goward.—The insolvent, who is a young man, de scribed himself as an operative chemist. In July, 1823, he took a ready furnished house at Layton, of Aitchin son, at a rent of one hundred guineas per year; he paid a deposit of five pounds, and Aitchinson was satisfied of his respectability; he then informed Aitchinson that he was the natural son of a Nobleman, that his brother was also the natural son of another Nobleman, and that they were daily in the habit of receiving sums of £lOO and £2OO from their noble fathers. It was on this false re presentation that Mr. Aitchinson entered an opposition, but such representation having been made after the in solvent had taken the house, the opposition fell to the ground. Aitchinson, the opposing creditor, underwent a severe cross-examination by Mr. Cooxe, respecting a term of imprisonment he served in ‘N'hitecross-street, and the manner in which he had obtained his liberation; be was acquainted with a person named Ireland, and he gave him five pounds to procure his discharge : he was questioned whether the discharge had not been ob tained by fraud, but he was prevented answering the question by the interposition of Mr. Pollock. He, how ever, admitted that Iceland was subsequently tried for it. The nett opposition was for obtaining a stanhope, and afterwards allowing it to be disposed of. It, how ever, appeared that the opposer did not demand any re ference, but lent it to the insolvent, who was to him a perfect stranger, and that opposition likewlse fell to the ground. The insolvent, when called upon to give some account of himself, said, he travelled the country, particularly Manchester, Lieerpor4l,litc. and visited the cotton ma nufactories ; to the proprietors he impariedvarious im portant services in dying and printioterxtons, which would greatly facilitate theif work. and execute it more 'perfectly. He was paid varilus sums for these disco veries—sometimes he received £lOO, sometimes £5O, and down to IN. Mr. 'ISAMU demanded that the insolvent should in sert in his schedule that he was the possessor of those tecipes, for surely, if they were not given to the manu factories exclusively, they . would - again sell for £lOO easli etc• • -Alm insolvent had ad objection to give op; the 41 ;pes, but they were of no nse to any one, unless they sib* hip, Spey them. The Cum Cowin:mot= thought he was compel led to give them up; they could not pass under the as signment, and in law be had no right to-them. The insolvent was next questioned respecting his pro perty and expectancies, and why he had insetted in the schedule " that he had sufficient money to keep himself comfortable r He said, that at that time he was in ex pectation of marrying a- Lady worth f.8,b00, but his late partner, to whom he imputed his distresses, bad caused a quantity of lithographic letters to -be struck off, and had distributed them about ; and in consequence of, their contents, the connection between himself and the Lady was broken off. He subsequently took under his protection a distressed femakcousin, with five chit& en, whose husband was in prison ; she contracted debts during his absence on a journey, although he sent up ELO to defray any trifling expenses she might incur.— He had been a parson, officiated as such in the pulpit, and had styled himself the Rev. E. C. Sugg . The opposition failing, the insolvent was discharged. DUPLV UN POPULAR INSTRUCTION. The various mechanical institutions which within these few years have been established in the different great towns of this empire; have justly attracted the at tention and merited the applause of every enlightened patriot. These institutions promise in a short time to better, materially, the condition, • and to increase the power of the labouring classes. Nor is their political vigilance likely to be lessened by augmenting their in- tellectual and moral strength. Their knowledge of their civil rights must keep pace with the general im provement of their minds; and as they rise in the sc 41e of society they must acquire that commanding influence which their new relative position is calculated to cen ter. Knowledge, by being generally diffused, will cease to be a distinction, abd thus will seldom be dis• played as the title of vanity, or employed as the means of deceit and dupery. As the people become more in telligent, they are less liable to be misled—superstitious errors lose their hold—quackery is hooted out of exist ence—the power of demagrgues is annihilated—mobs and tumults, occasioned by knavery working upon ignorance, are at an end; and as the great mass of so ciety cannot be moved but when their rights and privi leges are in real danger, their union and zeal on such occasions must render their strength irresistible. The Govetnatent of France does not entertain the same opinion on these subjects as we have above ex pressed, and therefore, M. de Corbiere, the Minister of the Interior, has, in his wisdom, suppressed ill the schools of mutual instruction, which had beeii esta- blished by benevolent societies or individuals—(going even to the prisons and extinguishing the little tapers of knowledge which burnt in them like " lamps in se pulchres"); but there is one institution. similar in its object though not in its origin or regulations, to our Mechanical Institutes, which has been allowed still to exist—namely, the public lectures at the Conservatoire des Arts et Metiers. In the amphitheatre or lecture room of that establishment, a course of popular hoar uc- Iron is given in Political Economy, in Geometry and Mechanical Philosaphy applied to the Arts, and in Che mistry applied to the Manufactures. It is enough in praise of the manner in rshich these courses of lectures are conducted, to state, that the first is given by M. Say, one of the first political economists of Enrope; the second by M. C. Dupin, the author of the Voyues en Grande Bretagne; arid the third -by M. Clement, a well known practical chemist. M. Dubin, whose publications we are always ready to welcome with pleasure, and Whose activity of mind is such that he seldom allows the public long to forget him, has just published his introductory discourse to this year's prelect ions. Like all the other productions of the same author, this little work is distinguished by extent of information, elegance of diction, and liberality of views. M. Dupin is calculated to be a great benefactor to his countrymen, by introducing among them a knowledge of those mechanical arts in which we are their supei irms —by explaining to them the causes of our superior ity— by boldly informing tl.sm of the instances in which they must yield the palm to their neighbours—by converting their feelings of narrow jealousy into a sentiment of gene rous tivalship—in short,. lily liberalizing as well as in structing their minds, with regard to the-scientific pro gress and mechanical improvements of otter nations. M. Dupin reasons strongly in favour of instructing the industrious portion of society, and enforces his argu ments by a reference to the state of knowledge among English and Scotch mechanics, and the advantages de rived from it in the improvement of the arts. " I will tell tliosemen," says he, " who seenothing but mere ma chines in the laborious classes, that I know a machine more powerful than that of Watt—more ingenious than that of Atkwright, and greatly More susceptible of im provement. The %%hole universe does not contain twenty thousand of Watt's machines, nor ten thousand of those of Alkwiight ; but the kind of machine to which I allude is multiplied on the face of the globe a thousaud. millions of times. The steam-engines of the whole world do not represent a force greater than that of four hundred thousand horses; and I know one which represents the force of one hundred millions of horses! What, then, is this machine? Must I mention it in the degrading language of some persons?—lt is man." We shall not enter farther into this ingenious and liberal paper than by citing the follon ing passage, which must have been heard with some dissatisfaction in the amphitheatre of the Conservatoire, and must be read with proportional pleasure by the English public: " In abtfsing England, we have sometimes heard it affirmed that she gained her victories by her treasures, which subsidized nations against us, rather than by the valour of her own defenders. But, in the first place, this is to avow-that gold is even military force ; and how did England acquire this gold'? Did she draw it from her mines? No; she has no mines which produce I gold. Did she extort it from conquered nations in her transmarine possessions? Never did India or America, by their tributes or spoils, enrich the public treasury of Great. Britain. What, then, in all times has been the source of her riches? The industry of her people, and the labour which b its element. We must admit that 14,000,000 of English and Scotch possess greater in dustry,and produce more commodities, than 50,000,000 or 40,000,000 of the nations of the continent. This is the reason why 14,000,000 of Scotch and English have been able to struggle with advantage during peace and war against moranumerous adversaries. Far from us be those vain declamations of writers and orators, who sacrifice truth to popularity in our assemblies, our saloons, and our wOrkshops—whci: tell us perpetually of our superiority—who perpetually ring in our ears, that we are the first people on earth. Doubtless, we have everything requisite to become so; but at the . augment, far from being in the first rank, Ifear •tr t afar, far distanced by England. England has - --"7r -- arrived at a remarkable epoch, which prepares fur ht: new destinies, and greater prosperity than she has eve' before attained in peace or war:' We hear that M. Dupin has been made a Baron, and. Member of the Legion of Honour, by the new King.— We hOpe that the liberality as well as the talent of his publications had its due weight in prccuring for their author these honoras y distinctions. POLICE INTELLIGEA MANSION-HOUSE. In consequence of a paragraph which appeared in the public papers, relative to an aged German, who was represented to have tt.ld his Loidshtp that he had been dismissed from the hulks, with out the means of subsiitence, the LORD MA vori has received a com munication from the Secretary of State's Office for the l lome De partment, and has also been waited upon by the Hanoverian Con sul; and it appears that the German, whose name is J. F. ifeimer, when discharged in November, received £4. ss. sd. and a complete clothing, which cost Xi. 18a. Bd. lie was also provided with a ship, and when the vessel was ready to sail, he ran off; preterring a life of vagrancy to an industious course.—The LORD Nlavuit sentenced Aleizner to imprisonment, and hart labour fur three calendar mouths. Sir JAMES SHAW sat for the LORD MAYOR; when Ciartes a lad, who was examined here a day or two since, on a charge of picking pockets, was again placed at the bar. Since his last exami nation, the character and connections of the boy have been enquired into, and found to be vet y respectable. The boy'siather, who is at present on a sick bed, had promised to send him to his brother, a respectable tradesman in a country town, where he would be honestly employed ; and, consequently, atter a suitable admonition, Sir J. SHAW discharged him. GUILDHALL. • Moses ./kr was remanded c on a charge of obtaining 51. 6d. fronr a pour woman, under tale pretences. She had had a quarrel during the Christmas festivities with a neighbour and hi: wife, and on Monday morning, the _'7th ult. she set out in quest of a Magis trate's summons, and went, not to the Juatice-room, hut to the Great Hall itselt, where, finding no appearance of a Police Office, she accosted the pri,otter in the pnr.:l3, who told her the Aldt.rmaii would not sit for a week.—She returned to the same place on Mon day last, saw the prisoner, and gave him 3s. 6.1. fOr. what she sup posed to be a summons but which turned out to be what is termed a lawyer's letter. She came, expecting a hearing yesterday, was directed so this office, the affair/ WAS developed, the prisoner found again in the porch, and having no authority tnissue either summons or lawyer's letter, was remanded for further examination. BOW-STREET. Messrs. Jo'tnMan Pinks and Peter Chinnery, a pair of operative tailors, were chaiged before Sir lluasioto limns with wantonly destroying the property of Mr.Owii—.-not Torn Brown the elder, nor Tom Blown the younger, nor John Brown, the Essex-calf, but the identical BrOWD, who WI1110111(11d the look:ries t o the h ot sough _ ship at Astley's, and shook th).nitms every night for a whole sea boll by demanding 11r hat are you at ?—what are you drier?" ibis Mr. lirown, it appears, unlike the generality of tools, has abandoned his tooling, admirable as it undouhtedty was, gild now, instead of making mouths six inches wh.e, and junving w,nn his own throat, he makes much ey by peurii:g gin other com binable matters down thi: thturts ut the lieges, at the sil' t:i. .Mitre, in St. Martin's-lane. It lurin r appeared tit a tat. Brown. the ca-soul, being tit opinion that the Mitre was stud apro pos fur the sale of fita4.lllti tieing uvsirous, moreover, tit perpetu ating his amphitheatrical comicaidier, got intusrlt painted triospa , i rently in clutractti—that is to say, in itis former character, witu a mouth trom ear to ear, a pair of Dutch inexpressibles, and a scar let cockscomb ; and riding upon three horses at once, with a kg upon each. This transparent painting wir fitted to his front door, so that all who entered his house might know who was the landlord thereof; and this brings us to the complaint against Messrs. Jona than Pinks And Peter Chintiery. These two tailors—finds to the back bone—went into Mr. Brown's hest parlour late in the eveaing, and demanded grog. " D . ye liar ! bting's a glass o'grug, sizpenny-wotth td rum and water, with a slice of lemon in it; and look sharp r"Chey drank it, and called lair another; but when tuis secoad glass was handed, , to them, they . relused to pay it, alleging that they had paid before they ordered it. Mr. Brown had from the hest surmised that they were not exactly suffer, but now he was convinced of it. Anil there fore he gave them notice to quit. But they were flints, and scorned to flinch, and the rum and water was spilled upon the flour, and then they were handed out of the house, and in revenge, one of them dashed his hand, or his stick, or Ins clbuw, or his whatever- else-it-might.be, right through the transpatent painting above-de scribed! And Alf tilt damage thus done, amountiag to 12 .55.. 9d. Mr. Brown now demanded reparation. Messieurs the tailor defendants, in reply, alleged, firstly, that they were pt:riectly sober; secondly, that they had paid for the grog, and therefore were ivi.ungausly deprived of it, by spilling, as aforesaid; thirdly, that they had nu notion of being turned out in that 'ere way; and fourthly and lastly, that the pane of glass, and the transparency aforesaid, were broken and burst—not by their act and deed, es falsely alleged, but in the general scLffi.:—acci dentically, as it were. Mr. Brown, and two witnesses, however, solemnly affirmed that the damage was done with malice prepense; and the Magistrate asked Mr. Brown what the transparency might cost hint? " Why, your Winship," replied Mr. Biewn, " it cost me £2, and 1 consider it uncommonly cheap." " That may be," said Sir Iticliaan ; " but I cannot award da- Mages in full amount fur valuable works of art placed in such► a perilous situation. Let the tailors pay Sr. for the pane of glass, and ss. for a curtain to supply the place of the transparency." Mr. Brown looked blue, the tailors were locked up until they paid the Ws. and Chore was an end'of the matter. • QUEEN-SQUARE. Yesterday, William Martin was brought up for final examination, charged with breaking open the counting-house of Mrs. Walton. livery-stable keeper, in King-street, Westminster, and stealing a desk, containing Sri sovereigns in gold, six pounds in silver, a variety of books, papers, &c. the property of Mr. George Dawson. He was fully committed to Newsate for trial. MARLBOROUGILSTREET. Yesterday Sawn Shown, a very old man, was brought to the Office by Read, one of the Bow-street patrol, who charged him with being what is called a " Duller," alias a cheat, by selling articles of mock jewellery for genuine ones, and at , the price of the real sort. Read said, that he has fur some that. past bad his eye upon the prisoner, who had been represented to him as a " top" Duffer, but he has been so \vary and cautious in his dealings that hitherto he has been unable to " trap" him. A few days age a young man told the Officer that he had been completely " done" by old Solomon, and produced a very fashionable watch, which the latter had sold hint, as a " dead cheap bargain, " for 4 £4 . Having with difficulty abated him down front £5 to t hat sum; but on in quiry be found that . " all was not gold that glitters," and that the new purchase, at the most, was only worth about 6s. Mr. Drat, the Magistrate, asked 26e prisoner what he was?— "lam an Israelite, your Worship," was the reply. I mean, said Mr. Dyes, are you a licensed hawker?—;-Solornon said he ha d no license at presuut ' but in his time he bad possessed no less than , twenty-four of th em; indeed, a license would now-cost hint more than all his articles of jvwellery were worth. Mr. DYES asked him if he could pay a penalty of £lO for hawk ing without a license ? No, said Solomon, nor ten farthings. Mr. Dress said, he should treat him more liently than he believed he de. served, by committing him for 21 days to the House of Correction. HATTON-GARDEN. A Gentleman holding a ♦ery distinguished rank in society, ap plied to the Magistrate to obtaiu sume certain means of protection from his wife, who had made a solemn vow either to assassinate him, or came him to be assassinated, within twenty-four hours. The applicant also requested to hare a private interview. Mr. Luso recommended the accommodation of domestic differences by the interference of private friends, rather than dragging them be fore the public. The Gentleman and his friends withdrew to con sult together, and having again presented themselves to the Magis trate, it was found that the mediation of friends was of no avail, and the Magistrate, after regretting that his interference was ne cessary, directed t hat the office should be cleared. The investiga tion occupied about an hour, and the Gentleman, on leaving the collie, appeared to labour under great anxiety. • UNION-HALL Yesterday a lad, about 16 years of age, named Jill* Maithaw, was brought before L. B. Attu!, Esq. charged with haviug robbed his uncle, Mr. Matthews, a respectable boot and shoemaker, in Blackfriars-road, to a considerable amount ; and the following per sons, Frederic Seminally Charles Rogers, Henry Eagleson, Coteries .roes, *Win Thildisand ElisobsiA - &inward, tilt mother of one of the prisoners, were charged on suspicion" of feloniously receiving, part of the property, knowing it to have been stolen. The prisoners are It respectable-leaking tottot Ma% and one of them (Joni) i s a performer at one of the minor theatres. From the evidence of Dlr. Matthews, it appeared that the boy Matthews, and a brother of his, were apprenticed to him. F or some length of time he hail observed a great decrease in his go e s o f hoots and shoes, but never for a moment conceived that his own nephew was concerned in robbing him, until within these few days the discovery was made. Mr. Matthews being asked whether lie had ascertained the quantity of boots and shoes stolen- from him replied, that be calculated there were at least 3,000 pairs missing from his stock, which he had ne doubt were stolen. A few days since, Birch, the beadle of Christchurch, lie ng on the look-out after the thieves who had broken open the shop ut Mr. Carter, in Btackfriars-road, met the prisoner Rogers in the roads and ohset ving him offer a pair of shoes to a person for less than half their value, instantly questioned him upon the subject, when, after considerable hesitation, he confessed that he bad got the shoes front Mr. Matthews's nephew, who directed him to dispose of them fut; what he could. Birch took him to Mr. Matthews 's shop, to velum he mentioned what had occurred ; and upon confronting Rogers the nephew, the hatter declared to his uncle that a - boy named heels was the person who filched away several pairs of bums ard cho c s . t In consequence of this intimation, the boy Henly was sou,* aftert and he gave such an account of` the affair as led to the 4pr o s en7 sion of the prisoners. The boy' Ilenly was examined. He stated that be is an errand.; boy to a Mr. Silk. A short time before Christmas, the prisnmer Stanuard came to his master's shop, and asked him (witness) if h e would take a note to ;I.lr. Matthews's shop ? Ile consented ; and he was desired not to give the note into the hands of any p erson except Mr. Matthews's nephew John. Witness did take the letter, a id after John Matthews read it, he tied up three or four pair of shoes in a cloth, and 'gave them to witness, who returned with then to Stannard. Stannard, he added, subsequently sent him with tho shoes tJ a pawnbroker's to pledge. In reply to a question by one of the solicitors, witness said that his muter had no knowledge of where the shoes came from, br that they were pawned. George Rudolph, a pawnbroker, produced 11 or 12 pair of shoes and one pair of boots, which he stated were pledged at his shop by the boy Henly. The boy Henly, upon being asked what remuneration he was to have from Joues and Stannard, fur pledging the boots and shoes? said that they promised to give him a new pair of boots. !lice, the officer, sLid, that if the prisoners were remanded, further evidence would be 'al-ought forward which would expose the whole of the depredations committed upon the property of Mr. Matthews, Mr. At then remanded the prisoners. POZtIPEIL—Mr. TAYLOR, who is engaged in his re• searches at Pompeii, in a letter to his friend, Mr. NO . DIER, dated Pompeii; November 16, 1524, says— " In one of the rooms of these baths (speaking of tome hot baths recently discovered), my attention has beta particularly attracted by three ,eats made of ze, of a form entirely unknown. and in die highest state of preservation. 0.1 one of then as placed the skeleton of a female, whose arms and neck were coveted with jewels ; in additkn to gold bi acelets, the 10, ut of which was already- known, I have taken off the neck of the skeleton a necklace, the vetuktuanship of which is ab solutely miraculous. I assure you that our most skilful jewellers could make nothing mote or of a bei ter taste. It has all the beautiful woe ktfianship of the ,%1 inrish jewels which I examined at Granada, and of die same designs which are to hr found in the dresses of the Moot ish women, and on the Jewesses f Tetuan, tan the coast of Afrjca. Tne -hracelets form a tingle ring, and are so perfectly tesembiing each other, that one would suppose them manufactured by tile same artist. The principal hall of the baths is covered with beautiful ornaments, and the cornice is supported by an infinite number of small figtires in alto-relievii of a very original character. It is difficult to describe the charm that one feels in touching these objects on the very spot where they have stood for ages, and before the illusion is entirely destroyed. One of the windows was coveted with rnagniticca glass, which has just been deposited in the Museum of Navies." BI RT LIS. Jan. 2, at Teston, the Lady of tae Honourable and. Reverend F.. 1.
