, * ' i , " R. 4 NCF: AND THE BOURBONS IN 1830. From Le Globe. W. at; ~t last approaching the term of the lamentable pole. a).cal ewuctt At which we have for these eight months past engaged. Our Parliament it about to open, and Royalty must meet the country lace to face. All good men have looked impatiently for ward to this t vent ; for there is nothing more humiliating to a great nation than to have every morning to foresee or to defeat the follies or a powtr at once menacing and despicable. Such an existence is a lite of hazard—that is to say, of anguish and disorder, of dis iyo.sing illusions, and of bad passions. Feeling our destiny to de pentl upon the turn up of a die, which some weak had may at any aim rent cast, men }:ccome accustomed to dream of chances, to calcu late the means of defence, and soon after of attack. Nothing is so near to fear as sedition, and nothing sop much tends to mischief as contempt of authority. To ray nothing of the loss of eight months for our glory and pc.wer abroad, and for the enlightened administration of our affairs home, a loss always irreparable, is not the corrupting disquietude created in society by the mere accession of such a ministry sufficient :Or its condemnation ? This was on the first day, the first cry of every voice. Men looked far beyond the mere questions of constitutional mechanism on which parties might be about to play their game. Royalty was tilt to be struck and compromised. The phrase " 1688 and the Stuarts" then resounded ; and in fact, since the period of the Bth of August, the dispute for Royalist or for Liberal, has existed and does exist solely on this great and awful idea. The phrase is perhaps bold, Gut it is sincere. When we cherish no after-thought and venture to intermeddle in the affairs of our country, it is fit to put aside all - vain precautions and to speak 'rankly. There are sorrows and dangers enough in civil warfare, dangers and depravity enough in the intrigues and conspiracies which lead to the overthrow of a throne, not to make us dread to foresee such a state of things, and yet to make us look at the chances, and, above all, to make us endeavour to induce thole to look at them who may be able to avert the evil. The parliamen t and the king alone possess this power. It is, therefore, to the "'ornament and the king that we address ourselves along with all good citizens, to consider what at present is the relative situation of royalty and France. For our part we arc of opinion that all the crises through which we have passed since 1814, the present is without contradiction the most decisive for the House of Bourbon. It is, to reckon rightly, the fourth attempt at counter-revolution. It is curious and pro fitable to observe what part the nation has performed in all these rash experiments—how it has been progressively instructed and strengthened, while the rarty which is dragging down royalty with itself has been misled and weakened ;—how at every counter-revolutionary effort the same melancholy and fatal idea of the separation of the throne and the country has pre sented itself, but on each occasion gathering strength, ac t opted by a greater number of minds ; a first concealed as a secret intrigue or feeling of hostility, afterwards disclosed In public as an opinion, and thus proceeding, until, if Heaven avert it not, and if eze old enemies of liberty still proceed farther, this opinion will be come the resolution of a party with popular assent. However, all r•tn so ardently desire tranquillity and the security of their inter ests, that on every occasion when royalty separates itself from those 141:o compromise it, and takes the slightest step in the way of a re turn towards the nation, that moment the hope of fixing the fate of the Bourbons with a future liberty revives. It is natural to calculate en all the advantages derivable from their old hereditary succession, tae real goodness and facility of character which endeared them to eta ancestors : men flatter themselves with pleasing plans of a slow are. peaceful reform which shall reduce royalty to its true station— , axely, that of reigning without governing; a situation in which the Prince is withdrawn from the storms of popular disapprobation yd the struggles of Parliamentary majorities and minorities. No c^;. we apprehend, will deny the tendency of men's minds to incline alts.mately, according to the danger or the security of the charter,— tc a change of dynesty or to the maintenance of the reigning family. It has appeared at every crisis which we at present can call to recol- L:Lion. Lest it should be doubted, let us try to sketch, in a few words, and with perfect candour, the picture of these crises. If we c'c not truly describe the flux and reflux of the national opinion, we are open to contradiction. _ Whoever has lived 30 years in France must recollect under what circumstances the Bourbons returned. They were forgotten or dis regarded by their contemporaries. The new generation knew no thing of their existence, and did not even know their names. The victwies of foreigners smoothed the path for them, either in comae. quence of offended national pride, or the restlessness of old animosi ties revived by fear, stoma, and wars between the country and the party which was to arise under the protection of their throne were foreseen. There was a moment of hesitation and alarm ; but another danger still more pressing operated on the national will. There was no longer any head to the empire. The son of Napoleon was still in the cradle, and that cradle had for its protector an Emperor of Austria. The Bourbons were of our own blood; the Senate of the empire, degraded as it was, spoke of conditions and of liberty. The same sentiments were expressed by the legislative body which had given vent to the first sigh for the misfortunes of the country. It was known that conditions would be agreeable to the head of the family. He was described to us as instructed by mis. fortune, enlightened by study and the spectacle of English liberty, and proud of all our recent glories. The liberal opinions of this Prince at the commencement of the revolution were recollected.— Promises reached us from all quarters, and the alarm, without being dissipated, was calmed. The declaration of St. Ouen, the octroy of the charter, though it appeared offensive to pure theory, completed the half conversion of France. Louis XVIII. began with some favour a reign which he dated back twenty-five years, in memorial of legitimacy; but around this legitimacy, which few compre. bonded, but however was admitted as an innocent pretension there soon arose a cloud of grotesque and insolent legitima cies, the mere recollection of which is farcical—the old no. blesse, the emigrants, court robes, the ante-chamber dignities of Versailles, corporations, the clergy, La Vendee, and the Chouans ! It was variety, avidity, and vengeance in full cry. Some insulted out uniforms and the titles of our new warriors; others wrapped themselves up in the pride of their caste, and looked with disdain on citizens whom they had but lately courted. In some quarters they established themselves as conquerors in a country divided by civil war, and surrounded themselves with peasants guilty of the most terocious crimes. All demanded, and even took, what they called their property,—feudal rights, tithes, places, pensior.s, decorations, titles. They soon stifled some favourable presages. The ration trembled. At that time, animated with one spirit, still warm with the life of the empire, and possessing the controul of public affairs and of the army, she, with an immense power, surrounded a throne almost foreign. Indignation seized her. A favourable wind brought back her Emperor. Notwithstanding the resentment caused by his wars, his tyranny, and the danger of an invasior, yet he was received as an avenger, as a liberator, as a man of the people and of the re volution. The counter-revolution had, by its follies, bapthed him First Consul and Child of the Republic. A second time flight carried the Bourbons to foreign camps. Thus, for having offended, not with their own hands, but with the hands of their friends, the national feelings.—for having threatened the rights acquired by the revolution, they were dashed to pieces like glass. Buonapartism, the centre at that time of strength and union, cast them off; and it became manifest that they had only been• adhered to in the hope that they afforded a sanction to the revolution. That hope was be. trayed, and they were deserted. Had not foreign sovereigns felt an interest for them, but had in like manner deserted them, they would have died in exile. . To be continued.

VICE-CHANCEM7B II rUS COURT, Fn. 26. MACKOLEW V. WHITOY AND °TRW. The SOLICITOR.OEXERAL and Mr. WAIELT ap for the plaintiffs, and Mr. Hoaxs and other Counsel on the p art of the several defendants. • This was a suit of rather a cove! description, in which it was attempted to set aside a sale of certain premises in Leadenhall. street, made so for back as the year 1799, and under a decree issuing out of the Court of Chancery, upon the grounds of an informality in the obtainirg of that decree, and alleged collusion between the Ivenders and purchasers, defendants to the present suit. In 1796, Francis Nodin carried on business at No. 1, Leaden hall -street, and became indebted to his father , John Nodin, in about 200/. who accepted a mortgage of the premises to that amount. A mortgage was afterwards made to Mr. Whitton, a so. licitor (one of the defendants to the present suit), for 480/. Francis Nodin, becoming still more embarrassed, assigned over all his property for the benefit of his creditors, and went to the West In. dies. Messrs. Sharp and Cox, two of his creditors, were appointed trustees, and it was stipulated that this property should be sold in trust, first to pay thereout John Nodin, then Hill, another creditor (and one of the defendants), and, subsequently the purchaser of the premises in dispute. A bill was subsequently filed for redemption and foreclosure, and a degree obtained in 1797, directing the sale, and the money to be paid into Court. By the alsater's Report it appeared that the premises were sold for 1,0121. and Mr. Hill was declared the purchaser. A rule Nisi was obtained confirming this sale, but a rule absolute never had been applied for to render the Decree complete, in strict conformity with the rules of the Court. It was agreed amongst the creditors, as the proceeds of the sale were not sufficient to discharge John Nodin's claim, and pay the costs up to that time, that no further proceedings should be taken. Hr. Hill obtained a conveyance, in which all parties concurred, and remained in quiet possession of the premises from 1799 to 1817, when he assigned the property to a Mr. Mitchell, another of the defendants, who subsequently settled it, on his marriage, on his lady and issue. Several years ago Francis Nodin returned from abroad, again became embarrassed, and took the benefit of the In. solvent Act. The present plaintiff, Blackest', became his assignee, and hence became a party to the suit by filing the bill in 1825. It was contended on the part of the plaintiff that the decree was cot legal, being founded on a rule Nisi, without its being made ab solute ; and that Hill, being a creditor , in collusion with Whit tor., purchased the property at a less price than its real value. His Hostoun roceeded to give judgment ; he considered that had the transaction which gave rise to this suit taken place more recently than the distance of thirty years, during which time some of the defendants had held possession, he still Amid have felt no difficulty in deciding upon its merits. He considered that in all the material points the practice of the Court bail been complied with in respect to the decree; and that the omission to make the rule absolute was fully explained by the whole of the assets being ate up by the discharge of specialty debts, and the costs of the suit. It did tot appear that Mr. Hill bad received any part of his debt, or had Messrs. Sharp and Cox of theirs, the amount being, by the Master's Report, expended in discharge of J o h n Nodin s debt and costs. With respect to the price at which the premises were sold, he was also of opinion that it was an adequate one, and there was nothing in the whole proceeding to attach a suspicion of fraud or collusion. He, therefore, ordered, with respect to the de fendant, Mr. Mitchell. and his children, made defendants to the suit, that the bill should be dismissed with costs. With respect to Whitton, Mr. Sharp, and Mr. Cox, also defendants, he also ordered ins Produce of, and im -1 ported from, British Pos sessions nut of Europe. Qrs. Bus. 2,559 2 0 4 493 7 Qrs.

With respect to the other defendant, Mr. Hill, in whose conduct he considered there was sufficient irregularity to give grounds for the suit, he should di rect the bill to be also dismissed, but without costs. The above cause occupied the Court nearly the whole of the day. COURT OF KING'S BENCH. GREEN V. SQUIRES. This was an action brought by the plaintiff, who is a stationer, to recover from the defendant, who ls a livery-stable keeper. compen sation in damages for assault and false imprisonment. Mr. PLATT appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. CAMPBELL for the defendant. The following weir the circumstances out of which the action stow The plaintiff and the defendant, being upon intimate terms, were one day walking together, when they met a person who owed some money to defendant. The defendant asked him for payment, but he said he had it not. The defendant then demanded his watch u a secu rity, but this he declined to give. He offered his silver snuff-box to be placed in the hands of Given, the plaintiff; until he should have paid the debt he owed defendant. Some time after this de fendant told the plaintiff that he feared the person might call upon him to pay the debt, and might refuse to do unless lie bad the snuff. box to return to him, In consequence of this Cireen gave the snuff box into his possession. Subsequent to this they met at a public house, and the plaintiff asked the defendant for a pinch of snuff; whereupon the latter offered him the snuff-box in question. Green took a pinch, and laid it on the table, but in a short time after took It up again , saying, that as the defendant owed him money be would keep the box until he paid him, as the defendant had himself done by the owner of the box. To this arrangement the defendant ob jected, but the plaintiff continued to keep thc'box, and, an alterca tion taking place, the defendant sent for a constable, and gave the plaintiff in charge for felony. He was taken to Hatton-garden, but no magistrate being in attendance he was locked up all night, and taken there a second time the next day, when he was imme diately discharged. Lord TENTERDEN said there was no pretence for charging the plaintiff with felony, and the magistrate who could hesitate to dis charge him was not worthy to sit another hour on the bench. The plaintiff was clearly entitled to a verdict. but it was for the jury to say what damages they would give to an obstinate man, who had persevered in doing what he ought not to do until he got locked up for the night. The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff—damages Is. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, FEB. 28. POYNTER V. ROSE. This was an action brought to recover the sum of 701. and odd, for work and labour done. It appeared that the plaintiff, who is an auctioneer, was upon terms' of great intimacy with the defendant. The latter called upon him one morning, saying that he came upon business,and that lie wanted his opinion upon an estate which he was urchasing in Hertfordshire. The plaintiff accompanied the defendant to the place, and acting upon his advice, the defendant declined purchasing the property. Subsequently the defendant engaged the plaintiff to assist him in the purchase of another estate called Cowley Hall. On this purchase the plaintiff was frequently engaged, and the estate was finally purchased for 1550/. A bill of 701. odd was sent in by the plaintiff to the defendant, in which various sums were charged for attendance, and one upon the purchase money. The defendant objected to pay, upon the ground that the charges were exorbitant. The action was accordingly brought to recover the amount. The defence to the action was upon two grounds ; first, that the charges were exorbitant; and secondly, that a tender of 301. had been made to the plaintiff, and refused. Evidence was given to show that the plaintiff had been profes sionally engaged, and that the charges were fair and reasonable. Mr. Serjeant WILDE contended that the plaintiff was not en titled to recover, as he bad not gone with the defendant as a man of business, but merely as a friend. He also contended that a tender of . 301. being made to the defendant, a sum fully equal to the ser vices performed by the plaintiff, that he could not sustain the action. The jury found for the plaintiff for the full amount claimed. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. A young man, named C'unitinyhant, was charged with assaulting a Mrs. White. The complainant, a smart young woman, related that the defen. dant came to her grandfather's house, in Stonecutter.street, three or four times on Wednesday, and inquired for his father, who was not at home. The last time he came he abused her, called her out of her name, caught hold of her arm, and pushed her down. Frances Swift, the mother of the last witness, said she called in accidentally, and found defendant ill-using Mrs. White, and when she tried to keep hill off; he beat her likewise about the arms. Defendant said he denied these statements altogether. He had heard that his niece, the complainant, a girl of 18, had just been married to an old man above 83 years of age, and, giving no credit to the story, he went to demand a sight of the certificate. When he asked for it, she flew at him like a tigress, and tare his coat and waistcoat. Both mother and daughter had been drinking. Francis Swindell said he saw the whole affair. When defendant doubted the marriage, Mrs. White raged at him in the most furious way. The mother interfered, and they were all fighting together, and Mrs. White was so fierce that she returned to the fray after she had been thrown down. Mrs. White said she was greatly provoked. He told her that she was married just as much as the at, and that she must have been in sad distress for a husband to marry so old a man.— (laughter.) Huckle, the watchhouse.keeper, said the defendant was brought to him, but as it was a family quarrel, and the complainant did not appear to be sober, and knew where to find the defendant on a fu ture day, he declined taking the charge, and referred them to the Magistrate. Mr. Alderman WINCHESTER said the defendant's interference was Improper; and the defendant promising to refrain from all in. terference for the future, was dismissed on his own recognizance to appear at the next sessions. BOW-STREET. Yesterday, a young man tamed Samuel Collins, and a female named Elisabeth Marshall, were brought before Mr. Mitestince, the former charged with having attempted to hang himself, and the latter with having meditated her own destruction by drowning. It appeared that the parties had been living together for some time past as man and wife, and that the young man, who is pot-boy or waiter at the Savoy Palace public-house ha d become desirous of discontinuing the connexion. This naturally led to some irritation on the part of the female, who in a fit of passion on Thursday rushed from her lodging, and in a frantic state proceeded in the direction of Waterloo-bridge. She reached the steps leading to the water on the Middlesex side unperceived, and was about to plunge into the river,when the young raan,whohad followed her from their lodgings, arrived and frustrated her design. He then gave her in charge and returned to the Savoy Palace, but the occurrence of the night had so wrought upon his mind that he also attempted his own life by strangulation. Luckily his intention was also frustrated. He appeared so much excited and so despe rately bent upon his own destruction, that it was deemed unsafe to leave hint alone, and he was accordingly handed over in custody of a police officer. The landlady of the Savoy Palace gave the young man an excel lent character, and he appeared so sensible of his error, that the ma emits permitted hint to return home with his mistress, pointing out to him, however, the enormity of the crime which he had at. tempted to perpetrate, and the punishment with which it would most assuredly be visited by a justly offended Creator. The Magistrate sent the female to St. Clement's workhouse, it having appeared that she belonged to that parish, with directions that she should be taken care of. On Thursday night, Mr. Halls, the Magistrate, happened to ac company some of the members of his family to Covent-garden theatre, and having seen them seated in their box, he left the theatre foe the purpose of discharging his evening's duty, and was on his way to the office, when he felt something agitating his fob, and on looking down to ascertain the cause, saw that a fellow was endea vouring to extract his watch, which with the fob were even drawn through the flap of his trowsers, ready to be secured with a scis ears or some other instrument. He merely ordered the pickpocket to let go his hold, and march about his business, which the fellow, who evidently did not recognize his Worship, joyfully did. The Magistrate had hardly taken his seat, however, before the same thief; who gave the name Gilbert Harbert, was brought before him, charged with also having attempted to rob a gentleman named Stokes of his watch. Mr. HALLS, on seeing the prisoner, asked him if he had any recollection of him ? Prisoner—No, your Worship, how could I have any recollection of you? Mr. Matte—lnnocent fellow ! Did not you and I meet to-night ? Prisoner—Not that I remember; I have no recollection of the kind. Mr. HALLS-Why, is it possible you can deny that you at tempted my pocket not a quarter of an hour ago ? Prisoner—All I have to say on that score is, that if your Worship says so, I can't help it—(A laugh.) Mr. Stokes then stated that, he was a proctor, andiesided in Great Hussell-strect, Bedford-square ; as he was standing at the entrance into the pit of Covent-garden theatre, a few minutes before, waiting to gain admission, he observed the risoner standing clime m hint in the crowd, and immediately after distinctly felt the pit man's hand fumbhng about his pocket and watch.fob ; he had no doubt that the prisoner intended to have robbed him. Mr HALLS : Neither have I the slightest doubt. Inspector Preece, and Ford the paler , proved that the prisoner was a well-known a ndi convicted thief. He was therefore committsd for two months to the House of Correction. 1 LAMBETH-STREET. Yesterday Sarah Todd, an elderly female, was charged John Hardwick. Esq. with stealing a valuable silver watch from t!:. person of Mr. Alex. Norton, a Scotch Captain. The prosecutor stated, that on the preceding evening he met prisoner in Wapping, who, addressing him, said that she was n:utl, distressed, and cold, and begged that lie would treat her with some thing to drink. Perceiving ffom her accent that she was a country - woman of his (Scotch), and believing her representations, he tr.ated her with some gin before the bar of a public-house, and they part(! after they came out. Shortly afterwards, however, he diseou-n,k' that he had lost his watch, and had no doubt but that it was the pr. soner who had taken it, as he then recollected that she got close to his person when coming out of the public-house. Morgan, a sergeant of the new police, and a very active offiect. said that while going his round on the preceding night, innpectin4 the men, he observed the prisoner and another person going alom:. Ratcliffe-highway, and overheard them disputing about a watch. Her companion accused the prisoner with having it, and she denied the fact. Suspecting that all was not right, he took the latter intt custody, and found in her band the watch now produced, and whirl. he afterwards ascertained to have been stolen by her from Mr. Norton. The prisoner, who it appears has more than once been committed from this office for similar offences, offering nothing in defence, was sent for trial. UNION-HALL. Morrie Neale, who has been receiving relief for a length of tim, from St. Saviour's parish, was brought up, charged with having a.. saulted one of the overseers. Mr. Richards stateditaa the defendant applied on Thurs.lay evening at the Committee, for a certain sum that had been aliowof him, but which had been withheld, because it was discovered that lit had been imposing upon the overseers, whereupon he became ex. tremely impertinent, and would not leave the mom, and when of fered to be turned out he made violent resistance. Mr. Howt.—.How dare you, who are a beggar and a paupet, offer to insult or to assault au overseer, you ought to be humble, thankful, and submissive. , Defendant said the Magistrates had made an order for his relict. but the overseen had refused to obey it. When he went to the Committee-room on Thursday night, because lie did not take of his hat the moment he entered the door, they said he was insolent and sent for the officers, who immediately dragged him away witl.. out any ceremony. Mr. Smith, the assistant overseer, stated that the man had beer. in the habit of receiving 7s. per week, because he had a large f.L. mily, and from his statement that he could get no employment He discovered that the defendant had been employed three days a. week and often full time, for a length of time past. He stoutly denied it, upon which his allowance was reduced to 2s. per week, which was the cause of the disturbance. He was ordered to be sent to the House of Correction for 14 dai s Lady Paget, rife of Sir Charles Paget, at present Admiral on the Cork station, and her daughters, Irwt espoused the Roman Catholic religion. The ceremony took place at the Parish Chapel, in Cove, within the !a-t few days, and was attended by an immense concourse of people.—Limerick Chronicle. 15,095 6 IClvt. qrs lb. 7,310 2 23 4 4 6 3 1 42 60 0 22 BIRTHS.
