The presence of firer Aldermen being necessary when the Common Sergeant tills the place of the Recorder, although the attendance of no more than three is required when the latter officer takes his seat, messengers were sent round to the Aldetmanic biethren respecting the assistance of any individual of their body in the Court. The Lord Mayor, and all the rest ot' those who were in readiness to commence business, waited with different degrees b of patience nearly • two hours. The Jury expressed their feeling without much hesitation or ceremony, and having agreed upon one point unani mously, that further delay would he an inconveni ence upon them, departed. The business of the Sessions is, in consequence of this negligence or misfortune, or whatever the absent Alderman may choose to term it, to stand over till the Bth et' January; and until that period arrives, six prisoners who should have been tried on Thursday must re meln in prison. The expences attending the delay arc considerable ; and the excuse generally made by negligent Aldermen is, that they have such a variety of business as prevents them from attending to this most important part of their duty. It is certainly the wish of the Aldermen who are able to attend to the duties of the situation, that those who are not, would make room for men calculated to lighten the unnatural weight upon the general body.

Too much prai e cannot be given to the present Dean and Chapter, fur their spirited resolution in having those works of art restorcal to their orii4inal purity. There era a „great number of the iesaiptions nearly obliterated by time, which when restored and brought to the eye, clear of the long compluined of obstruction of iron work, cannot but be highly gratifying to the Fublic at large, us well as to the relatives of the de- • ceasedto whose memory they are inscribed.

(From a New South Wales pppers) SYDNIT, June 9.—Just as Captain Raine was • eve of leaving Valparaiso for this part of the world s more, be was informed of a marvellous affair relating k an American whaler, that hail been attacked by a whale at sea in so violent and dreadful a manner as to Occasion the vessel to founder, and most of the crew to pesisb, of whose disastrous history we have been favoured with and shell present the same to our readers. .Captain Raise receive* information that Mete were three men Ilbs Du tie's:Vend, who hg preferred remaining there rather than venture across WC ocean in a boat, to vralellhe crew had been compelled to fly from the ship. Th e boat, to which these three men belonged, bad been pichad up by aa American whaler, Amin sixty slays alter the melan choly occurrence. Another boat, in which was the cap tain and dm remainder of lire crew soon pin tedcomparry, and *ere use fallen in teith by another whaler of' Arse-. rice, which vessel wag Abe Ireareitsf the intelligence to Valparaiso; and the licritible account given by the•rwo survivors in this boat was truly, deplorable and shudder ing. They bail been ninety days at sea before they had been fallen in with, and had experienced the moriStread fist of all human vicissitudes; f the extremity of hum ger, they had beers reduced to the painful necessity of killing and devum ing each othei , in order to •mititain a wretched life that was hourly expected to he terminated. Eight Rinses prti.lots been drawn, and eight human beings had been Ate irked, to afford sustenance to those that remained: and. on the day the ship encountered them, the captain and the boy had also drawn lots, and it had been thus determined that the poor boy should die. Bat, providentially, a ship hove iu sight and took them In, and they were restored to eiistenee. Doleful in the extreme as it Is to hear such things, and painful as it is to relate them, it is nevertheless asserted as a fact by Capt. Heine, that the fingers and other fragments of their deceased companions were in the pockets of the captain and boy when taken on board the whaler. The commander of the Surrey bee 1111 l Mg opportunely armeainted with those retai 1, ful iial distressing circumstances, humanely determined out calling at Dame's Island, and be imstrumental in re storing three unfortunate follow-creatures to society, and very possibly rescue them from a miserable end, particu larly as this island was no great distance out of his tract lions Valparaiso to New Holland.

A surgeon was immediately sent fin, and a gentleman, as assistant to Mr. Bryan, soon afterwards arrived, and dressed the dreraseort wounds. Witness, as anon as he coned, proceeded to the stage coach, and saw • 4 Notting Hill" on it, but before be rosild take the name, the coach men mountti'd the box and chore off. He could not see the exact colour of the coach body. There were lamps along one side of the roast, aid witness *perfectly sure, mat if he was &Eying the coach he could have seen the deceased's char*. .The • coachman's language was very olfensive, and lie certainly considered his manner of dotting to he very reprehensible; hut it was nothing oboe. apealiring generally, than all the coachmen on that road were in the daily habit of doing. A Jaryonadliele suggested, that Thomas Stratford, the person who was supposed to have driven the coach on the night ul the accident, was in attendance to give evidence; but 'Chu Coroner declined calling him, lest he might be cri mistalitsd, and could not legally be examined. Richard Saunders, of the Edgwaresroad, wheelwright, was alarmed by a noise in the street,end on going oat saw a horse melt by, di egging the fragments of a ehaise t at its heels. 'lke deceased was then lying against the railings, its answer to witness's inquiries, he said lie was very tench hurt, and that he feared his leg was ',token. He said lie was buckling the belly-band of Ids horse at the time. and that he called out to tfie coachman to take care. but lie paid no heed to the caution, but ran him down. The stage was one of the Bayswater coaches, end the man who drove it was not the regular driver; the women called him by the flashy oiTom, and witness is sure lie should know him again. There was light enough for him to see, and room to pass Mr. Slade without touching either him or his gig. Mr. Appleton (a Juror.)—The toad is 11 yards wide, and six carriages coi;ld easily pass abreast; oil this oeca• sion Mr. Slade's chaise and the stage were the only vehirles on the road. Charles Reeves, a watchmen. saw two women on the box; theit named are Sarah Dixon and Carty. He had no doubt ant he could find them immediately. Coroner,—Well, then, my chaise is down below...take that, and bring the ladies here at once. A summons was then granted against thenii and the watchman departed to serve it.
