THE DEW-DROP. A dewdrop boomed in a flower, Lay buried deep In shade ; But, mark the difference of an hour.... A sun-beam o'er it play'd! Then bright, resplendent, forth it shone ; In fun and •ailed hue; It nourish'd that it lay upon, The blossom sweeter grew! But day declined, and twilight's veil - O'er half the world is thrown— Night's bleak and bitter winds prevail. The air is colder grown t The lower is clad—within its breast The dew-drop nestling hes ; There chilled to ice, its cold impress The flower—it droops and dies QUADRILLE DANCING. PROM THE LITERARY CHRONICLE. " Nil dbl mecum Commune est." hate quadrilles I-What, hate the elegant Pastorale— the neat La Poole—the gay Locloiska! Peace, Madam ; cease from repeating that bead-roll of foreign monsters; I hate them all I They are complicated pieces of me ohanism, which require study and practice; and must a man of five-and , thirty go and put himself under the care of a dancing master, to be a second time initiated in all the mysteries of first position, and one, two, three, four? Yet he must do either that, or forswear dancing. It is a hard case. Now, Sir, I am very fond of dancing; but I learnt before Roger de Coverly and Chatsworth House were assaulted by Weippart and Hart—before the importation of French quadrilles, French foolery, and French silks; I learnt when dancing was dancing— 'not a little angular shuffle, like a knight over a chess board. 0 how different was the ancient regime .of dancing 1 There you stoucl the, envied leader 'of thirty couple; on your partner's decision rested the momentous question of " What figurer and bow prondly you communicated to the few around you the important intelligence " Hands across, back again, &win the middle, up again, and pousstute I" Then the endeavour to appear demi,. while the two fiddles scraped over the tune, when you knew that every eye was upon you, and your bosom throbbed with anz;ety! but as you became inspired, your heart beat fuller, your capers were higher, and you redoubled the *int! -looks you bestowed upon your blushing partner, who gave you a hand as warm as her heart! Then, when came the final scrape, whet pursuit for a chair ! and then a glass of warm negus was almost as much a desideratum as the longitude is now. Men, fanning was no sinecure; the ample green orb was spread.... Like the moon Through optic gists by Tuscan attht Oiled ;" said the assiduous bean, while industriously wafting the cool breetes on Ms sweetheart's brow, often concealed beneath its disk the near approaches he Made towards her cheek. Oh, happy days! But ye Are gene! and sickly and heartless Quadrille rules it now in the throne of country dance, while crowds of parasites, as heart less as herself, follow her over her chalked floors and per fumed halls. A short time ago, Sir, I received an " at,horne" from a very particular friend, with that ugly little word . which I have made the subject of this essay, stuck in the corner, like a naughty little child, cpiite ashamed of hims:lf. What was to be done! I was told I could not refuse, so go I must, and my sister kindly volunteered to chew me the mysteries of these saltatorial intricacies. After a week's hard practice, I thought I might ven ture, althouglr 1 had many misgivings about Pastorale; the others I thought might shuffle off behind some pro. tecting flounce. but a pas-seul I 4. Infandum jisbes reno vate dolorem !" The fatal evening came—powdered and silk hosed footmen stood, like vocal telegraphs, to pass our names up, and I heard, w'th feelings similar to those of a wretch called out of the condemned cells to be executed, " Mr. and Miss Longfoot" announced. We walked in, made our respects, and I sat down, (to use Sir J. Sylvester's words,) . 4 to employ the short time vrhich was left me, in preparing myself for my ap proaching execution." Had this been " a country d trice party," like those of yore, I should only have bad to have found some lively partner, and been happy ; but here, all looked cold as the soup at a Lord player's dinner. The sperms were transparently freezing. and the Ladies winked, or rather stalked about, like so many Junos. Men were bowing and displaying white teeth and 'kerchiefs, and talked indifferently of the ties of affec hen and of their neckcloths. There was no laugh, no merry greeting, no quaint joke from the host, no kind inquiries fur absent friends from the hostess. We looked like quakers, waiting for the spirit, who came at length in the shape of Mr. Hart, and whilst he was employed in bringing the fiddles to a proper state of mind and tone of feeling for the solemnity of the occashn, I saw, with feelings of inde.cribable horror, our hostess advancing, Of course to have the pleasure of introducing me to a partner. "Very sort y, Madam—sprained ancle—dis totted hip—lame this, month past;' I muttered out, while a faint sickness came over me; but to no purpose. 4 ' Dancing is the best thing in the world for sprains," and several other equally true apophthegms were pour ed out by my kind partner-finder, and I was dragged up to be presented—l bowed, tried to say something polite, but, alas " Voz faucibus hash ;* and, at length, endeavouiing to hide my real feelings tinder an appearance of indifference, took my place at the side of the first set. How eagerly did I watch the top couples in the in tricacies of right and left, chaise de dames, &c. in order to refresh my own memory,---and at last it came to my turn. The wretch at the gallows foot could not feel more uncomfortable than I did; I blundered-1 put the (Om s out—l drew out my white cambric for no other eat thly put pcse than to put it back again—l endea. vt'ured to put on a bold laugh, but it was a diabolical cachiaation that made me look a very fool. I saw there was a sneer on the faces of the whole set; I could have dashed the teeth out of the ridicu lous puppies jaws, and been rude to the Ladies. Then came that hideous Pastorale. There I stood alone; my legs looking like number eleven on a street door; my face not at all unlike one of those long, oval, 1 on headed knockers, with a very similar grin. There I stoo d, alone, I say, with two long feet, like a spondee at the end of an hexameter, whilst two women, with a smirking cavalier between them, advanced and retired, as the dancing masters say, grinning all the time, and seeming to enjoy my misery. Thea it was my turn to ~- • advance,' while those three :ton) 10 - king at me with tre most perfect assurance, now staring in my face, now gaz;ng en my feet, till I wished, with old John 13unyan,. (I believe,) that the earth were an hungry, and would swallow me up 1 How did I rejoice when I bowed, my sense of the honour done me, and prepared to lead my partner to her seat. But judge of my horror when she exclaimed, 66 we had better keep our places for the lancers 1" I could not have felt half so much, had I been ordered to keep my place before a whole regi. ment of them at full charge. It was intolerable ; I limped about—put my hand on my hip—swore I was lame for life—and mentally ejaculated, Weyer I dance a quad' ille again, may Ibe dashed. This would not have happened in a country dance. COMMON COUNCIL. A Court of Common Council was held yesterday at Guildhall.—The Watch Act was settled for the ensuing year.—Mr. COPE brought up the Report from the Com mittee of General Purposes, in relation to the Court of Requests. It recommended an enlargement of the Court, which, after a few observations, was agreed to, and it was referred to the Committee to be curried into execution. The Court was ordered to be held, in the mean time, at No. 15, Aldermanbu , y. Mr. COPS also brought up a Report from the same Committee, with the draught of a Bill, .ettled by the Recorder and Common Sergeant, for increasing the number of Common Council for the above Ward, from four to eight, which being agreed to without any dis cussion, the Bill was read a first and seccutd time, and referred back to the Committee to have the blanks filled up. The consideration of Mr. Favell's motion for referring extraor i measures of expense to the Finance Committee, was post ponedto a future day, the Lord Mayor having occasion to be present at the Mansion-House at half-past three o'clock. LONDON ADJOURNED SESSIONS. Jobs Alfrey was indicted for assaulting Thomas Ball. The par ties are both Clerks to Attornies, practising in the Insolvent Debtors' Court ; and on the day stated in the indictment, they acddentaily met in Whitecross-street Prison, when one of those disputes arose ken of a trade ' and from words which are so common era, two _ meet, they proceeded to blows; and the defendant amused himself with dragging the complainant round the yard of the Prison, amidst the jeers and laughter of the prisoners. The Jury found him Guilty; and the Court sentenced him to pay a fine of £5, and to find two sureties in £25 each, to ke:p the peace towards the prosecutir for six months. Thames Dabs,* was indicted for assaulting George Betts. The parties are both retail fishmongers attending Billingsgate Market. On the day in question, a dispute arose between them when they commenced a rrgular attack upon each other, by pelting an the rotten fish they could find. They were quickly aided by their allies, and when the contest terminated, the complainant had rather the worst of it, and therefore indicted the defendant for the assault. The Court reprehended, in strong terms, the conduct of the com plainant in bringing such a trumpery case before them ; but as the assault had been distinctly sworn to, fined the defendant 20.. NSW FOREST STAG —Mr. G. Bowles, one of his Ma jesty's gamekeepers, has, at Bolderwood Lodge, lately shot, for the use of his MAJESTY, one of the finest stags ever known in the New Forest. It was afterwards con 'eyed to the Lodge, where it was dressed iu fine stele, and sent to the Royal Palace, Windsor. Its weight (when cold) was 15 score 111 b. Saturday aftertioou, a poor elderly woman fell from a waggon near Maidstone, and the wheel going over her, she was killed on the spot. Yesterday, a painter, employed in painting the front of St. Ann b s Church, Bobo, fel. fro% a high ladder, and was taken up and conveyed to Middlesex Hospital, with scarcely any signs of life. A meeting of the Agricultural Association of the Three Hundreds of Newport Pagnel took place at the Swan Inn, Newport Pagnel, on Saturday, when a Peti ton to Parliament was agreed upon, praying that the unrestrained importation of foreign cora might not be permitted, on account of the ruinous consequences that would ensue to the occupiers and owners of land. THE ROYAL Or.vasetc Tuaataz.—This Theatre, which has been newly modelled, and greatly improved, by the present spirited Proprietor, was opened for the season last night. The first drama. represented was a Serio-Comic Burletta, called The Lord of the castle, which possesses much interest, and was exceedingly well performed. It was followed by a Naval Divertissement, called award an 4 Emma, or The Shipwrecked Mariner, which was received with considerable applause, as was also the concluding farcical Burletta, called The Two Spanish Valets. On the rising of the curtain Mr. Hew WNW; delivered an appropriate Address, and from the whole of the entertainments the Proprietor is justified in anticipating the support and patronage of the publ c The new scenery merits particular notice, and great at tention has been be,towed on the musical department. One or two hop-planters in Canterbury, last year, in duced by experiment, made trial of wool bags, as a manure for hoiss. The result was most satisfactory, as was exemplified by a portion of ground treated in the ordinary way,which did not yield near so great a produce. A very handsome woman of fashion observing lately that she detested masquerades, a gallant officer in com pany said, " No wonder, Madan', as you do so much execution unmasked." MURDER.—A horrid crime was committed at a cot tage on Barnet Common, about half past eleven o'clock on Saturday night, on a labouring man named Lawford, about 23 years of age, who had for these two years past cohabited with a female named Susan Bartrup, alias Long Suke. The parties had quarrelled, which they had often done before, and it is said she stabbed him immediately beneath the collar-bone on the right side with such desperation, that he died almost instantly.— The wretched woman herself gave thc first intimation of the affair, by running out of the cottage, and ex cla;m;ng " Murder r Her next door neighbour, Daniel Jenkins, on entering her apartment, and finding Law ford lying on the ground, ran to alarm others; and two persons, named Cook and Field, were soon on the spot, when they found the wretched woman, who had now become perfectly conscious of the horrid deed she had committed, supporting the head- of the victim to her passion,. but he had now expired. The parties imtne. diately sent to two surgeons of the vicinity, and also for a constable, to secure Susan Bartrup. It is hardly ne cessary to add, that on the arrival of the medical Gen tlemen, their professional aid was useless. The instru ment with which Bartrup perpetrated the deed was a butcher's knife ; it was found on the table, covered with a cloak. From the direction of the wound, it is con jectured that Lawford was reclining in a chair when the fatal blow was struck, as it is stated tons that his cheek was slightly grazed by the knife before it entered his , side. lartrup was secured, and taken to the Mitre, at Barnet, where she awaits the decision of the Coroner's • Inquest. POLICE INTELLIGENCE MA NSION.HOUSL Yesterdiy, long before the hour appointed for the examination of Mr. Willis, the Juatice-room, the lobby. and the steps outside were crowded, and it was with considerable difficulty that the Marshal ' men cleared a passage for the Lord Mayor. His Lordship directed Mr. Scott and Mr. James Mitchell to be called, and ordered Mr. Walks to be placed at the bar. LOAD Ma von—l believe, Mr. Mitchell, you attend as prawn mar in this case ? Mr. Michell—lnn Secretary to the Company, who are the prosecuten; either myself or the Chairman have the power invested in to by the Act of Parliament. Luse MATOII.-.Have you seen Mr. Scott this morning ? Mr. Mitehell-My Lord, I have not. A letter was handed to Mr. Mitchell. He said it was not written by Mr. Wilke, but was sddrewd by Mr. Wilts to himself. Mr. Alley objected to the letter being rece.ved in evidence, as it was not written by Mr. Wilke. Mr. Wilks said, the letter was written by his wife at the tithe be was in bed. He directed her to say, that a confidential clerk of his, and not of Messn. Scott and William, as stated in the letter, was about to leave town. The letter was read, and in it Mr. Wilke requested Mr. Mitchell to send hint a checque for 1,5001. as all the parties would be looking fur it on the following Thursday is Eslinburgh ; and be would for. ward it by Scutt and Williams confidential clerk. Loan Maroa—Mr. Willis, have you any ktter, authorizing you to sign by procuration? It will greatly facilitate my determination in this caw. . _ Mr. Wicks--Then, my Lord, am I to understand that the case depends on correspon dence? The LORD AIATOR-r-During the time that I sit in the Civic chair, I will not have the criminal laws made a vehicle for obtain ing other objtets. I understand•that this prosecution was intended to make you deliver up certain deeds you had in your possession, belonging to the British Annuity Company, those deeds they have now obtained. and I presume they de not wish to proceed any farther in this case, but I will take care that unless Mr. Scott ap pears to give the evidence he has sworn to against Mr. Wilks, he shall be prosecuted. Mr. Alley addressed his Lordship at considerable length, and contended that the charge against his client could not be substan tiated. There was not on his put, at the time he endorsed the bank post•bilh, any intent to defraud any person—his only reason was to save the expense and delay of remitting the bills back again to Scoltand—that as Agent to Scott and Co. he considered himself authorised to do so, and that he had duly accounted to them fur the money as soon as t he deeds were signed. Mr. Bolland said, it bad been laid down that the mere writing of the name of another was not forgery, unless it was attended with " intent to commit fraud;" it had been looked over and considered no forgery ;it was precisely the case of Mr. Wilk.. He had sent the money down to Scott and Williams ; they did not send it back, and say he had committed a forgery; the transaction had taken place with his own bankers. Mr. Wills said, that previous to endorsing the bill he sent it to his bankers, to know if it was necessary for it to be sent to Scott and Williams fur their endorsement. The bankersthought that his endorsement by procuration would do. Mr. Andrews contended. on the same ground, that no forgery bad been committed ; the bill was not indorsed with any fraudulent intent. From the time that Mr. Wiits paid the billßuto his bankers to the time of the value being forwarded to Scott and Williams, he had never less than 2,0001. balanfe in the hands of his bankers.— Could any one believe, when that was the case, that it was done with any fraudulent Intention? He was certainly entitled to hissilacharga. The Lobo MATOR—Mr. Mitchell, when did you discover that the Bank post-bills had not been applied to the purpose intended ? Mr. was not long since that I discovered it by a letter from Scott and Williams that they bad not received the bills. Mr. Rolland asked Mr. Mitchell, if, during the time the trans actian was pending, the remitting of the money was nut delayed in consequence of the deeds not being ready, and whether be had not kept a minute book of such proceedings? Mr. Wilks handed in the minute book, in which such an entry was made in the hand-writing of Mr. Mitchell. The Loan Matron said, that Mr. Wilks need not proceed any (sinker, his opinitni being made up on the subject. If a person ob. mined money by means of forgery. and did not make any fraudulent use of it, that was no rule that it was not x forgery; if the making out of the deeds bad prevfmted Mr. Wilke from sending the bills to Scott and Williams, be ought to have asked the Company what he should do with them? and nut pay them into his own bankers; upon the whole view of the matter, he was of opinion that, with the advice of another Magistrate, he should not object to take bail to a large amount, for his appearance. He was no* obliged to attend elsewhere; bet immediately on his return he would again hear the case. _ _ _ Air. Wilk. asked what bail kis Lordship would require? The Leas )laeoa said, two sureties in 1,0001. each, and himself for s ,o not. Olr. Wilke then left the bar. Twenty minutes before four . o'clock, the Loan DlLseoa, accom panied by Mr. Alderman WAMINAN, returned to the Mansion- Mouse, when his Lordship called on the Clerk to stew Mr. Alder man rarnimax the original information, as well as an Act of parliameut called hlr. Peel's Act," which was passed. the lest Session of Parliament, empowering a Magistrate, where there was a reasonable doubt, to admit the parties to bail. Loan MAYOZ—Let Mr. John Wilk. be brought up. On Mr. Wilke being again placed at the bar, Mr. Harmer was' called upon by the Lone MAYOR to know if e had any further i evidence against Mr. John Willis? Mr. Manner—No, my Lord ; I saw Mr. &ott this morning, and from the conversation I had with him, I had. every reason to believe he would attend dining the investigation. Loan, Mayon.-Mr. wilts, have yon any thing further to say in your defence? Mr. Alley said he did net think it necessary. The Loan Mayon then stated the proceedings that bad already taken place, and teed the Act of Parliament. His Lordship said,, be thought the present case came under the Act. Alderman W4ITHMAN said, the only information he had obtained upon the case was through report and the public prints, and his advice should he, to take the opinion of the Law Officers. The Loan llsvon said, he asked Mr. Hobler and the Qty Suli citor,whose opinions were favourable to his accepting bail. AklerminWAITHMAN—As to the charge, the case was admitted: but whether it was intended as a fraud, he (Mr. Alderman Walth man) knew it was not uncustomary for men to indorse bills "with another person's name • but they differed from this case. inasmuch as the Bank post-bilk b elonged to the parties themselves. Mr. Willis thanked the Lord Mayor and Mr. Alderman Welds man for their kindness, and assured them that when the case did come before a proper tribunal, they would find his conduct all through very different, in point of fact, to what bad been alleged. The LORD Mayon.—Mr. Wilk*, is your bail ready? Mr. Wilks--Yes, my Lord; my father, and. Mr. John Law ford, my brother-in-law, are in attendance. After a few minutes' consideration, the Lord Mayor announced his assent to the proposed bail. The bail was then accepted, and Mr. Wilke was immediately discharged. GUILDHALL .Abrohans Pasnore, late a Greenwich pensioner, was brought up charged with various offences. The first charge was preferred by a religious elderly female, named Hannah Keel, whom be called upon on the Sabbath, some weeks ago, fur the purpose of informing her she would Sod a packet at the Dundee Arms, Wapping, ant by her son from the Bast In. dies. Abraham was treated with a dinner, for the trouble he bad taken and was paid is. 3d. which he dem an ded for the transmis ;ion Of the said packet from ship to shore, and was accommodated with the loan of a handkerchief. Abraham assured Mrs, Keel, however, that unless she applied before six o'clock that evening, his son who bad charge of the parcel, would be refire Plymouth, which much afflicted her, as it obliged he r to neglect her devotions, and when . ahe arrived at Wapping she found she bad been ho axed. Wolfe, the constable, bad been sent td the same place on a simi lar errand, but from him the prisoner obtained but 6d. Mrs. King, who keeps a chandiere shop in Britannia -street, received a visit from the prisoner on the I st ult. pith the DOW'S that her son had arrived in the river with plenty of money ; expressing great reluc tance, be sat down to dinner with her, said grace, stole a handker chief, and sent her upon a fruitless erra nd to Diford. - On the 30th of September he called at Mrs. Allen's, Jewin. street, and at Mrs. Wells's, Three Tun:court, Cripplegate. To the first be represented her son, and attire ship's crew, had deserted from the ship Industry, bound to the Cape, and that she would re ceive £7s. on applying .to Captain Jones, Stepney Causeway ; and to the secoad, that her son, then at Sydney, bad sent home twenty five dollars, which she would receive at Captain Jones's also. No Captain Jones could be found. Both the females had treated him with a dinner, and from one be bad purloined a handkerchief and a knife; from the other a knife only. In another cue the prisoner got only a mpper, but cased the parties a day's fruitless search on the River, from the Docks to Woolwich. prisoner pleaded iiceasional its of inanity, but denied the fitionies.—Remanded. • SOW. STREET. Yesterday Venom appeared to show bow besheeame seised of a quantity of duplicates, relating to some valuable jewd, kry, the property of a yorsog man named Moffatt. The case was called on early in last week, but in the middle Oh, Sir 111-s-s- W-s-s: came bustling in, and whispered to dlr. Moffatt that the Sheriffs' Officers were waiting to arrest him, a n d off , red to conduct him out by a private way. Mr. Moffatt took tis t alarm, and Sir John actually conducted hiyf out by a private door, with a great appearance of metes) , ; on which the case W u dismissed. • Yesterday the case came on sic levee, when it appeared Mr. Moffatt had a chow arra in lodgings at Mr. Solomon., whom he had deck e d out in grand style, and having spent all the money he could obtain, Miss Glover. the lady, was obliged to pawn her jewels. The depli. cites were placed in a workbox, from which Mr. Moffatt now caw tended they had disappeared unaccountably, and the jewels dim. selves had partly been traced into the possession of his landlord, hy whom they had been redeemed. Solomon. had asserted that the complainant had sold him the duplicates, which the complaisant positively denied. Solomon', in his defence, asserted that Miss Glover sometimes left Mr. M. for a day or two, and then be would drink until be became nearly mad. It was w hilel he was in this state be had sold him the duplicates. It appeared Moffatt bad fre: goodly borrowed money of Solomons on the security of duplicates, and on the first occasion the complainant paid Ss. a week for the loan of XI. Mr. HALL said, neither fraud nor &kap was proved, and be alma therefore dismiss the case. QUEEN-SQU A RE. Yesterday, a man named William Jocasta, was charged before D. W. GRIMORII, Esq. with robbing the apartments of Mrs. Sarah Jane Harding, otherwise Cotterell, of two one pound notes, a sove reign, and two half sovereigns. Ann Harding,* very intelligent little girl, eleven years df JON now stated, that at two o'clock on Thursday last, when her Adds*/ was out, the prisoner came for his linen, which was always placed in the top drawer of a chest of drawers. He went to thy drawer and took his things out, and went away. Mrs. Cotterell now stepped forward•—Her statement went to prove, that she became acquainted with the prisoner at Twicken ham; it was at his request that she came to reside In Westmin ster ;be boarded under the same roof. On Thursday last the took the money from her pocket, and placed It in the drawer be fore she went *at. On her return she met the prisoner on the stairs, who passed her without speaking; about twenty sniping* afterwards she missed the money. From the time of the robbery she had not seen him, till he came in on the Sunday, when he was taken into custody. The prisoner had cohabited with the prosecutrlx, and attributed the charge to jealousy. He was remanded till Monday. LAMBETH-ST(IEIm Two fellows,named Morgan and reg. were brought up. charged with having in their possession implemense for robbtng burial. grounds of dead bodies ; being unable to give any account of them. selves, they were contained fur a mouth to the [Louse of Correedoo. It has at length been found expedient that the ridtN office steam-packets, with the Irish mails, should Fro: teed direct from Liverpool for Deblin. The London letter bags, for which they hitherto c rlled at Holyhead, are to be forwarded by separate steam-vestels, until ar rangements can be complered tor bringing these bags by the London mail to L;verpool, in tome t'i be dis patched with the other Irish letters from that place. In consequence of the petition of John Tait, now confined in the House of Correction for the alleged outrage on Charlotte Gunnell, at Uxbridge, and the memorial so respectably signed on his behalt, and for , warded to the Secretary of State to be presented to his MAJESTY. Mr. DAWSOI4 bas addressed a letter to W. IlLancowz, - Esq. Hayes, in which he states that Mr. PEEL has directed him to acquaint Mr. 11, that the Hon. Secretary has felt himself warranted in recommending the prisoner to his MAJESTY for a remission of the ro. nisining part of his sentence. TRIAL BY JURIL—The thirty-second anniversary of Hardy's acquittal was celebrated yesterday, at the Crown and Anchor Tavern, Strand. Mr. Hardy, it will be remembered. was tried in 1794 for high trew.:oo, in consequence of his exertions as Secretary to the don Corresponding Society in pr emoting .the cause of Parliamentary Reform.
