IRISH POLITICS. As might have been expected, the state of the King's health has given rise to much agitation in the elec tioneering► interests of Ireland, and candidates for the future honour of the representation are actually can vaesing the counties. In Cork and Kerry, we under stand, the canvass is brisk. Limerick has been solicited. O'Gorman Mahon has addressed the electors of Clare ; and Mr. O'Connell is so certain of being ousted there, that he is already tampering with the pot-wallopers of Drogheda: so says Peter Vanhomrigh—and Peter has a right to know. We mention this fact thus early, that the honest and independent electors of*bat borough may be on their guard, and make arrangements in time to secure to ihemselves a respectable representative. In Longford there will be a decided change of county poli tics. It is said, and we believe with truth, that the several interests in this county have been scrutinized -ith great accuracy, in order to ascertain the probable success of a new candidate ; and that, on striking the balance, not a shadow of doubt remains but that a son cf Mr. Lefroy's will be returned on the next vacancy. It is added, that the same interest can return both the members ; and this is not improbable, but we shall see. In Cavan, Col. Young has instituted an active canvass. Whatever the County may determine with respect to Col. Young and Mr. A. Saunderson, we trust they will never forget the public services of the Maxwell family, and the honest, independent, steady, and consistent course which Mr. H. Maxwell has pursued in support of those prin ciples which he was elected to represent. There has been no shadow of turning in him; let there be no appearance of wavering in his constituents. Louth, too, Is all alive on this occasion. Here there are three can didates for Mr. L. Foster's empty shoes. Mr. Sheil was first in the field ; an adventurer without an inch of property in the county, and having no other connexion therewith but the bond of speeches. We should like to see him pitted against his great rival, Mr. O'Connell, for Drogheda : there would be some fun in that. The next is Mr. M. Bellew ; the younger son of an ancient house, himself without property in the county, but repre senting a family worth some two or three thousand pounds a-year. Mr. M. Bellew was a demagogue and is a liberal, and possesses neither talents, nor weight of character, to be a useful member of Parliament. Were the contest between him and Sheil, we should not hesi tate to give him the preference. But it is not. Sheil has not a chance, and he knows it ; he only pursues the game for the idle honour of being candidate for a county. Mr M'Clintock, of Drumcar, has addressed the electors, soliciting their support in his own behalf: and truly, whether we consider this gentleman's property, his ex tensive family connexion and their long standing in the county, his general information, his talents for debate, or his character as a gentleman and'a Christian, we know not any man more deserving of the regards of an independent constituency; and we wish that every county and borough in Ireland had the choice of such a candidate. We believe there cannot be a doubt of his meeting with that success to which his merits entitle him, and which we wish him with all our hearts.—We shall be happy to congratulate Louth on such a repre sentative. Enough for one day of Irish politics.— Evening Mail. Mr. Arnold, whose subscription has now been some time full, is, we understand, about to petition Govern ment for a definitive answer respecting the new street, as he is anxious to commence building. The crop of apples in the neighbourhood of Taunton will be this year, we fear, a total failure. One farmer who made 300 hogsheads of cider last year, has stated that be does not expect to make one hogshe ad this year from the same trees. In Herefordshire also the crop of apples is likely to be very short, the blight in many or chards having been severe. The swarms of poor and wretched Irish who flock over here at the present season, are becoming an into lerable grievance. Every morning and night, the steps of the Hall are crowded with them, and we are informed there have been as many as forty applicants for relief in one night ! The officers, however, have received orders • not to afford any aid in future, and the overseers of the different parishes have come to the determination of offering applicants the option of either being sent back to their own country, or going without relief.—Bath Paper. Flexible Asbestos, or Amianth is a greenish or sil very white mineral f fibrous texture, which is found in many mountainous countries of the continent, in Cor sica, in the Isle of Anglesea, in Cornwall, and Scotland. This mineral, particularly ;he silken variety of it, in long, slender filaments, was well known to the ancients, who manufactured it into an incombustible kind of cloth, in which they burned bodies of the dead, and by this means were enabled to collect and preserve the ashes without mixture. It is admirably adapted for such a purpose, as it consists of long silky fibres, and these re sist heat to that degree, as scarcely to melt before the blow-pipe. This incombustible cloth was purchased by the Romans at an enormous expense. The inhabitants of some parts of Siberia manufacture gloves, caps, and purses of amianthus; and in the Pyrenees it is wrought into girdles, ribbons, and other articles. It is so abun dant in Corsica, that it is used instead of tow or wool to pack minerals with, and a great deal was, at one time, found in quarrying the Anglesea serpentine, and the workmen would not believe it was a mineral, but said it was cotton. This cloth is cleansed from its stains by being thrown into the fire. MELANCHOLY AND FATAL ACCIDENT.—On Mon day the 10th instant, as the two Misses Bradley, of Brant-hill (daughters of the late Mr. Bradley, surgeon, of Kidderminster), were returning from Chadwich house, near Bromsgrove, in the car of their friend, Miss White, they were met in a narrow lane leading Loma the house to the turnpike-road by a cart and three horses, the man and boy belonging to which being at the time Aiding to the cart. The second horse, it appears, was a young one, and the moment the car came in sight set off at a gallop : the car horse, alarmed at the rapid approach of the others, instantly backed ; the consequence was, the shaft of the cart entered between the spokes of the car-wheel, and dashed it with great violence to the earth, the cart at the same time falling on its side. Both ladies were thrown out, Miss Bradley being very seriously bruised by the vehicle falling on her, and Miss Elisabeth Bradley received such dreadful internal injuries, that she died the next morning. Mr. White, who was driving, we are happy to state, escaped without serious hurt.—A morning or two previously to the Misses Bradley leaving borne to pay their visit to Chadwirb, a conversation arose at the breakfast table on the subject of dreams, when the deceased remarked she bad had a most ex traordinary one.—" She imagined that her three brothers and her uncle were assembled in Cleat church ; I thought, she added, I was with them, and yet strange to say, I teas not with tbem."—W hen her funeral took place j ter three brothers and her uncle attended as mourners sad thus was her dream remarkably veri fi ed—the body indeed was ?MHO 9 t but the spirit had , ascended to Goo who gave it t LAW INTELLIGENCE. CONSISTORY COURT, MAY IS. Before Dr. LIDIIIINOTOS. DIVORCE. BRILEY V. BAILEY. This was a suit for divorce by Major Bailey against his lady, Louisa Bailey, on the ground of adultery. Dr. PHILLIMORE stated that the parties were married on the sth of March, 1823, and subsequently went to Switzerland. An acquaintance commenced with a Mr. Gardiner at Geneva, who lived in terms of great friend ship with the plaintiff's family. Major Bailey afterwards left Geneva with his lady, and proceeded to Paris, when they lodged at the Hotel de Congress ; shortly after wards Mr. Gardiner arrived in Paris, the intimacy was renewed, and Mr. Gardiner frequently dined with Major Bailey and his lady at their hotel ; sometime after wards Mrs. Bailey was observed to go out early on mornings, for the purpose, as she said, of promenading under the Colonnade On one occasion, however, when she said that she had been there, she had been watched into Mr. Gardiner's lodgings, at the . Place Vendome. On this discovery, Major Bailey resolved to bring her to England, but she refused to come, and he ultimately left Paris, and went to Bruges without her. He then wrote to her, and on the night that she received the letter she directly prepared to quit Paris, and engaged a vehicle for that purpose. She was seen, however, to go to Mr. Gardiner's hotel in a very agitated state. It was then that the adultery was presumed to have been committed for the first time, for Mrs. Bailey was locked tip with Mr. Gardiner in his dressing •room for a consider able time, and when Mr. Gardiner showed her out, he was in his dressing-gown. Mrs. Bailey then went to live with her mother, Mrs. Ricketts, and in January 1829 Mr. Gardiner came to their hotel. After Mrs. Ricketts had gone to bed, he went to the apartment of Mrs. Bai ley, and was seen to come out early in the morning.— On Monday, the 10th, he was overheard, at the Hotel, inquiring in a whisper, whether he should come at twelve at night ? The lady assented, and he repeated his visit and left in the same way as on the first occasion. Major Bailey, who was at this time wholly ignorant of her cri minal conduct, had agreed with her on articles of sepa ration. He first offered her 2201. and, subsequently, increased the sum to 3001. a-year for her maintenance, on condition of her living with her mother. In March following, Mrs. B. and her mother went to Havre, where they stopped at the Hotel de Londres. From thence Mrs. Bailey wrote to Mr. Gardiner, at Paris, and that gentle man followed her, and put up at the same hotel. Mr. Gardiner occupied the room No. 6. He was seen to leave No. 6, and to pass two hours in the chamber of Mrs. Bailey, and Mrs. Bailey, on the following day, passed two hours in No. 6. Mrs. Bailey left Havre, and took a house with her mother, at Vernon-place, Blooms- bury. Major Bailey brought an action for crim. con.' and recovered 1001. damages against Mr. Gardiner. On the very day that the verdict was returned, and a citation issued from this Court, Mrs. Bailey was actually married by license to a Mr. Smith, under her maiden name, Louisa Ricketts. The Learned Doctor then went into the evidence as above stated, and deposed to by the maid servant of Mrs. Ricketts, the porters and ser vants of the different hotels at which the adultery was presumed to have been committed. The certificates of the marriage of the defendant with Major Bailey, and also her marriage with Mr. Smith, were put in in evidence. He then contended that there was abundant evidence to prove not only the crime of adultery committed with Mr. Gardiner, but also with Mr. Smith, whom she had married. The Court stopped the Learned Doctor, and observed that the party must be called before the Court. As the case had been brought forward there was abundant evi dence to prove, not only the adultery with Mr. Gardiner, far there was enough to prove that over and over again, but also adultery with Mr. Smith, whom the lady had married under peculiar circumstances. The conduct of Major Bailey appeared to be blameless; and under all the circumstances, the Court could not hesitate to grant the Divorce.—Divorce granted. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, MAY 29. ILISUR.Y.-11LAYDES V. A NSTICE. This was an action brought by the executor of the late Major Blaydes against the defendant, who resides in Broad-street, City, to recover the sum of 4851. 13s. 10d. the amount of a bill of exchange drawn by Major Blaydes, accepted by Thomas Manning, of Princes-street, Leices square, and indorsed by the defendant. The action was defended on the ground of usury. The only evidence, which was called by Mr. Sergeant TA DDT' on the part of the plaintiff, was to prove the hand writing of the parties, and that the bill had been presented for payment. Mr. Sergeant SPANKIE said that the history of the bill was one of a very curious character, and he should establish a most complete and satisfactory defence on account of usury. The voracious discount that was taken for discounting this bill for three months was above six pounds, and, in addition to which, the sum of seventy-two pounds was taken as a douceur for the ' accommodation, being at the rate of more than sixty per cent. It could be proved that this was the ordinary way of dealing by Mr. Blaydes, in matter of this de scription. In November last, Mr. Anstice offered to pay what was then due , with costs, up to that time, but his offer was rejected ; and he then informed Plaintiff that if they followed up the proceedings, he would defend the case on the ground of usury. Mr. Score was then called. He said he was the at torney of the late Major Blaydes, and was in the habit of transacting business with him relating to bills of ex change. He recollected the bill in question being dis counted, and that 781. 15s. 10d. was taken as premium and discount. On his asoss-axantinatien he sail he received s puntua' of the 781. and he supposed that portion was one-third, as there was an understanding between hint and Major Blsydes, and the Major generally paid him that portion of the premium. Mr. Sergeant TADDY submitted that the evidence of Mr. Score ought not to be believed, as he had admitted having received the one-third part of the consideration for discounting the bill. The Jury consulted together a few moments, and then' returned a verdict for the defendant. PIRSIAW POZT LAURZATZ.—The Monarch of Per sia, it seems, has his court poet as wen as European sovereigns, as we learn from the St. Petersburg Gazette, which informs us, that the Bchah has lately presented a poet, named Wza Cvasul, who had composed a birthday ode, trousers of the skin of a hippopotamus, made with out being cut, and with buttons of topazes, and also of pair of half boots, of the skin of the musk-rat, the heels armed with massive gold.—Athenfzum. The inhabitants of Ryde have subscribed for a gold snuff-box, to be presented to Mr. Charles Phillips, the Barrister, as a tatiwnyy of their sense of his exertions i n o b ta i n i ng ramrseMlon to those persons whose pro mises were polled down to make way for the sew market-hone. OLD BAILEY SESSIONS, May 30. OLD COURT. Lazarus Hart was convicted of breaking and entering the dwelling house of Lewis Cohen, and stealing therein a quantity of cloth, nine fifty shillings, his property. I The facts of the case were not of the slightest public in terest. Benjamin Harper and Robert Murlass were indicted for breaking and entering the dwelling-house of John Whetstead, and stealing a silver muffineer, and other articles of plate, value 801. The latter prisoner was not tried in consequence of his being too ill to be brought from the prison. The prosecutor stated that he was a physician, and resided in the King's Parade, Chelsea. About half-past three o'clock in the morning of the 17th April, he was alarmed by a noise below stairs, and on getting up, found that there were thieves in the house. He came down, and discovered that the drawers, &c. in the parlour had been ransacked, and the thieves had ob tained an entrance to the house by cutting out one of the panne!' of the back door. Joseph Addis stated, that he found part of the stolen property buried in a field near the prosecutor's house, and subsequently saw the prisoner Harper turning up the earth near that spot. When he went up and asked the prisoner what he was doing there, he said he was digging for worms. James Humphries, an officer, stated, that after finding the property buried in the field he replaced it, and watched the spot every night until the prisoner came there, as described by a former witness, and was taken into custody. The prisoner protested his innocence, but did not call any witnesses. Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE summed up the evidence, and the Jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty. FORGE R T.—Anx Harding was indicted for having, on the 21st of April last, in the parish of St. George the Martyr, feloniously uttered a forged order for 21. with intent to defraud John Knock. After she was in cus tody, a man came forward, who stated that he gave the prisoner the check, and that he found it among some lawyer's papers. The Magistrates discharged the man, but committed the prisoner for trial. Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE stopped the case, observing that the man ought to have been placed on his trial, in stead of the prisoner, who was accordingly acquitted. Samuel Pullen, William Taylor, and Joseph Sharpe, were indicted for uttering a forged cheque for 421. 10s. with intent to defraud Richard Burke. The prosecutor, from his own evidence, and from the statement of Counsel, appeared to be the landlord of the City of Carlisle public-house, Shoreditch. Pullen repre sented himself as a solicitor just beginning business. He and the other prisoners were in the habit of frequenting the prosecutor's house. On the 24th of Dec. in the even ing, he represented his two companions to Burke as opu lent persons, one being a gentleman resident in the coun try, and living upon his property ; the other a skin mer chant in the City. He described them as clients of his, who had just given him a cheque in part payment of costs, amounting to 421. 10s. and be asked Burke to cash it for him. This he had not sufficient money to do,but advanced him 31. on account. Soon afterwards he went into the par lour, and found the prisoners apparently engaged in con versation, and he beard a sound like the passing of money from the hands of one party to those of another. Con siderable quantities of wine and spirits were called for and consumed by the prisoners, Pullen desiring Burke to deduct the bill from the amount of the check for 421. 10s. in his hands. The next day a further sum of 21. was ad vanced to Pullen, and half a dozen of wine sent to his order. On the 26th the cheque was presented to Sir Carr Glynn and Co.'s, when it was discovered to be a forgery. The name signed to it was Edward Smith. The trial was much protracted by the examination of se veral witnesses, but nothing material beyond the above was offered for the prosecution. Mr. Baron VAUGHAN, in summing up, said there was a gross fraud practised upon Burke, but it was not a case of forgery.—Verdict, Not Guilty. John Lanebourne, coachman to Admiral Tollemache, was indicted for the manslaughter of Samuel Jacobs, a Jew, whom he drove his master's carriage and horses over, in Great Queen-street, on Thursday, May 20 (in stant); he had driven the family to a Charity Meeting at the Freemasons' Tavern. The disputed fact in the case was, the rate at which the prisoner was driving at the time the accident hap pened. A great number of witnesses were examined on this point, and their evidence was very contradictory, some alleging that the horses were driven at paces, vary ing from seven to sixteen miles Ln hour, some that they were trotting, and others that they were galloping. A medical student, who had remained in Court when the witnesses were ordered out, applied to be examined. Mr. ADOLPHUS, who was Counsel for the Plaintiff, objected. The REconnita—The law of the case is—that any person in this Court can ask the witness any question he likes, which may appear to him to contribute to throw light on the investigation. The prisoner can demand it if he thinks it will be advantageous to him, and the pub lic have a right to expect it. Mr. ADOLPHUS—But, my Lord, it is contrary to prac tice, when a witness is ordered out of Court, and remains in it, to examine such witness. The Recoatexa—The witness shall be heard. His testimony is public right, and the prisoner and the public have equal right in this matter. Mr. ADOLPHUS—Then it is not correct. The RECoRDER—Mr. Adolphus, do you mean to im peach the judgment of the Court ? Mr. Anotruus-1 mean to say that it is not correct. The RZCORDZR—(With warmth) Sit down, Sir. This is most improper —most indecent Sit down! I any, Sir, `end do not say so again, or— Mr. ADOLPHUS, in a vehement manner—l will say, in %te of any attempt to put me down , _ I— e RECORDER—I shall be sorry, Mr. Adolphus, after our long friendship, to go to the extremity the Court allows me. I must insist that you sit down. Mr. ADOLPHUS—I will sit down, but this is contrary to all former practice. Witness was then examined, but proved no material fact. Admiral Tollemache, who sat on the Bench, gave the prisoner an unexceptionable character for sobriety, kind ness of disposition, and steadiness. Several others gave the prisoner a good character, and the RECORDZA having summed up, the Jury, without much hesitation returned a verdict of Acquittal. _ NEW COURT. SINGULAR Mons ov DSTZCTIIfG A Roenzuv.— Benjamin Sterns was indicted for stealing, Thomas Rove for recei • , a quantity of corn, beans, &c. the of John Gardner. The prosecutor lives at Mile sad On the 17th of May, is consequence of a suspi cion that Sterns was in the habit of robbing him of corn, be placed some small pieces of brown rper having pre sate marks on them, in the bin containing his corn. The mixt day be directed some policemen to watch Sterne, and they traced him to the Plough public-house, where PRICES OF GOLD AND SILVER. they saw him give a nose-bag full of corn to Rowe, and on examination it was found to be mixed with the piece., of paper described by the prosecutor. The Jury found Sterne guilty, and acquitted Rowe. Joseph Still, a lad 18 years of age, was indicted ful stealing a gold watch and chain, value 201. the propert‘ of Thomas Lord Ranelagh. The noble prosecutor having been sworn, delivered i evidence from the bench. He stated that on the 17th instant he rowed a boat from the Red House, Batterbea, to the stairs at Westminster, near to the garden of the Speaker of the House of Commons. While the eater. man was delivering his Lordship's coat and waistco at , hie friend, Mr. Biddulph, observed the prisoner take th r watch from from the boat seat and put it in his pocket . The prisoner had nothing to do with the boat belongiue to witness. Robert Middleton Biddulph, Esq. corroborated 111. Lordship's testimony. —Guilty. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. --.,....- MANSION-HOUSE. A IsOIISTEI WITHOUT BOWELIIO...A man, named Simmon s , applied to the Loin MAYOR on Saturday for advice In what roan , net to act under the following circumstances e—Being in want of a lobster far his wifellu s ir, the applicant went to a fish monger at Billingsgate, and a very fine-looking fish, agreed t o g i ve the sum et one shi ll ing or it. The salesman had many other lobsters an his board, but he particularly recommended the afor e . I said. When the applicant turned round the fish for the p ur p ose of examining what - be called the " bowel part," the salesman de. sired hien to tandle it in a particular way, for fear the beauty or the shape should suffer detriment. Bs accordingly handled the lob. stet, not by bolding it up by the tail, as is the usual way, but by merely pat it on is back. All seemed right, the body of th e lobster had a and Mr. Simmons went away pe t . fatly modelled with Ingrain, and preenteed it to his wife. Mrs. INouneete, however perceived a Walsh, which - had escaped th e oyes snit beebend—there was not a morsel of " bowel in the engem* disk se that supposing that her husband had been treat. log some unworthy woman to the contents, and that he thought pro. per to bunk ber, she dung his purchase at his bead, sad Wowed him up mast terribly." He did all he could to pacify her, an(l took her to the lish.salesman, who made things wore, bea m h e said he "snowed nothing about the lobster." This canoed much mirth. --- The Loan MAYOR said the fish-salesman had no more bowels than the lobster, to deny the knowledge of the fish, when one word from him would have restored perfect harmony. His lordship regretted that he could not punish so cruel and unjust a salesman; but he really thought the claws, which appeared to be full, wet, worth the shilling. " I know, " said his lordship, "if I wer e to send for a lobster, they would c harge me eight or nine shillings for such a one as that was." _ Mr. Simmons said he could excuse the deception, if it had not brought an old house about his ears. He hoped the Lord Mayor would cause the salesman to be brought before him to account, not for the deficiency, but for the decept ion . The belly of the lobster was here 'exhibited—the skin had but neatly tucked under parts oldie shell, so that the hole through which the most delicious portion of the fiah bad been scooped was out visible until-the tail was unfolded. The Louis MaToi felt the lobster, and thought it so light, that he doubted thefurniture of the claws very much. He smelt it, but all was right in that respect—nothing could be more sweet. Hi, Lordship then held it up to the light, and, to the surprise of all, said, I " Bless me, why I could read a newspaper through any part of it !" Mr. Sim mons exhibited the greatest passible indignation, and begged that a summons at least might be served upon the sales. man. He, however, admitted that he had selected the lobster Ix . cause it was ticketed " one shilling ;" and he produced the ticket, on which was discovered, under the words "A fine lobster," in very email letters the word " Shell." The Logo litYoa advised Mr. Simmons to buy a lobster for his wife as soon as possible, and " Tate care," said his Lordship. " that it shall have plenty of bowels." (Laughter.) With this advice the applicant was dismissed. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. John Palsy, a groom, was charged with having violently as. saulted a Hide boy named Fletcher, nine years of age. A police constable stated, that about nine o' clock on Friday night, he ob. served the defendant take bold of the boy by the chin, raise him up, and then dash him on the ground. The boy fell on his head, and remained insensible for some dme.—Mr. Keith, a surgeon, stated that the injury was of that nature that the burs recovery was ex. tremely doubtful. The prisoner, in his defence, said the boy ran against him, and applied insulting language to him. Mr. DYill ordered him to be committed to prison till he found good bail On Saturday Mr. Sergeant ADAM., as Counsel to the Imperial Ow Company, preferred a complaint against Tires°eh, Prior, a baker, in Tottenham-court-road, for having two extra lights from the Company's gas, which subjected him to a penalty of 50L for each light. It was proved that the defendant rented two lightt from the Company for the upper part of his house, and had caused two lights to be taken from the same pipe foe the baking cellar. He was convicted in the mitigated penalty of 101. and costa—Mr. Sergeant ADAMS then preferred a charge against Robert Dolastno, a gas-litter in the Company's employment, who had fitted up the lights for the former decadent. The fact was clearly proved, and he was convicted in the full penalty of /AL UNION.HA LL. Saturday, a young man, respectably dressed, who gave his name Middleton, was brought before the magistrate, on the following cha r—The landlord of the York Hotel, in the Waterloo.road. stated, that on Friday night the defendant called at his house, and ate two pounds of iamb chops, together with a half quartern loaf, and washed the whole down with a half gallon of ale and a couple of tumblers of hot rum and water. He slept in the house the; night, and in the morning declared he had no money to pay the reckoning. The defendant said, he was an artist by profession. From several letters which were found in his possession, it appeared that he was a young man of very expensive habits, and had very speedily got rid of several remittances which he had received from his father. The Magistrate said, that the defendant had committed no o ff ence which would subject him to punishment by a Magistrate. The only remedy the complainant had, was to sue the defendant for the demand.
