I . . . couar OF CHANCERY. Jo „ WARD OF CHANCERY. , • • MARIAM V. nansarile Mr. Hine, at the rising of the Court, made an applica tion to the petition of a Oentieman, who is the elder • • brother of a youn;.l lady of the same of Eleanor Marsack, to restrain a : Mr, Brown from marrying his sister, if the cemasony hail not been :lreasly performed ; and further that. he ihoeld be compelled to deliver the lady to her s friends forthwith, and that he might be enjoined hence.. - forth front all'interconn.e.with her personally or other wife. The facts o( 'b case were shortly these:—The . lady, a ward of the Court, bad just attained her six few!' year, and was entitled to a considerable fortune on her condor's:of age; who Hr. Brown was a person of a eery limited income. This gentleman, however, alleged • that the lady had already become his legal wife; that the marriage took place with the consent of the mother, now residing at Weymouth ; and that they were living' - to tether very happily as ;unitised and wife Mr. Hatt, en behalf of the applicant, desired that if Ate ceregpony hail so totally taken place, that then the said Mr. Brown should he ordered to lay before the Master a draft of the settlement he proposed making for his wife. The LORD Cusisetwoo, after inquiring whether the • facts above stated were verified by affidavit, desired that . Mr, Brawn, married or not, should attend the Court on Thlusday mond de with the mother ; and that. if he were not married, hi should he compelled to delis er the lady up, said restrained from any further intercourse with her. 111611 COURT OF ADM I RA LTY,SaTuanaat, JULY ie. • risilLit 851100. r riin JEAN Itlarmua.—Lord Sruwitt.t proceeded to give his jodgment in this case. He ob dit was a rani of claim on a bankrupt's property, for man's work ijone hr a female, on board the aboveinentioned vessel- Sli t etirmed for services done as cook and steward, and also for sloop-keeper. The Captain employed tli is woman, Eloaltath Stephens, who it the suitor, to perform those offices, and as such it is now too late to turn round and elect her claims, on the ground of her sex. It may be ssid•that a person performing such services usually per forms the part of a mariner ; it has been proved that she performed the services a mariner usually dm 1, taking her turn at the helm, tier hands and arms being as brow-. ry and robust attire rest of the clew. The next ques- Von was that of a ship-keeper ; this she performed while the ship lay in dock, and as she performed such service, she was not to be debarred on account of her sex.— Man's labour is performed by women in many countries; a•d even (contiomed his Coriolis') in our own we have heard the m perform military exercises, we have heard them stand by the guns of a man-of-war, others perform the part of a soldier, The name of Joan of Arc is known to mooch to her glory, and to our disgrace for the deeps sha suffered. Elizabeth, of blessed memory, every one Must recollect was present in many acts of intrepidity aid:valour. The Countess of Pembroke and Muntgoone rysEke, once acted as High Sheriff, sat with the Judges On the Circuit, and even officiated on the execution of eriininals. It did not appear to him (Lord Stowell) that the lex could be allowed as a disqualification ; it might be unseemly, but they must employ other persons, and he much doubted whether they could turn round upon tlittm on account of the sex. the owners say they did mot know she was employed in the vessel, bat they should not have left the management of the ship to the Captain. Upon the whole, he was of opinion she was entitled to the remuneration in her affidavit : sloe chinos 601., and in another she demands 901. In order to show that be m ould not distress the bankrupt's estate, he would give the suitor the lower sum, and would sign his decree for sucks purpose on the next Court day. ~..*tgp..

Au indictment preferred against Miss Drew, for per jury, arising out of the case of Drew v. Green, tried at last Assizes, was thrown out by the Grand Jury. OXFORD CIRCUIT.—Oxman, FRIDAY EVENING. These assizes have just terminated. There have been swarms of harrister::, but a dearth of briefs ; and during the whole circuit, as yet, we have icarcrly one case of public interest. The commission opens to•morrow (Saturday), at IVor rester. Mr. Curtvo.mi joined the circuit at Ibis place, and appeared to be well received. The sentences of the capitalcouvictshave been all commuted to transportation. SHERIFF'S COURT, HERTFORDSHIRE—SATURDAY. PRYON V. DALLY. The plaintiff is a brewer at Baldock, in this County, in extensive business ; and the defendant is a medteal swatc h jotter In the sante town. The action was brought to s .r.moyer damages (rote the defendant for saying cm repeat ed occasions, that this plaintiff had used drugs, and parti culaey tobacco, in manufacturing his beer; that he, the defendant, had analysed the plaintiff's beer, and had its a phial proved that tobacco was used in the composition there of. This he repeated on many occasions, with a strong as severation, saying, that he wished Goo might never permit 111 to take Ira hand from the table on which he laid it, if what he said was not true. This was the substance of the d:tclaration. The defendant pleaded the general issue, and suffered judgment to go by default, and now come into Court wittiest either Counsel or Attorney. Mr. A ookeaws (with whom was Mr. Pelee) at-ted the ease tothe Jury, and ob d, that aithough ju the town where. the plaintiff lived, and was well known. he could rot suffer, by such slander as the present ; yet when 'a me dical Man named it his business to travel from alehouse to alehouse, repeating the same slander, and vouching it up r.is the credit of his supposed skill In chemistry. It was n to be expected hut the t some pe'rsona would he frond suffi ciently credulous to believe such a statement. The Jury must be sensible that in such • case damages could be no compensation ; hut to give small or trill.ng damage; would be so add thinr sanction to scandal, which the defendant had not dared to justify; and therefore it was Lis duty to ask at their hands such damages as would marls their sense of the injury which had been done. He regret ted that ti , c defendant had not put austificalon upon the reior.l, because then, in the face o f the whole cottn -14 might have proved that the plaintiff was incs ' that nisi& was attributed to him. lie was also I he y e , re :r o pasle or I i STATF.SMAN sorry that Counsel did not attend on behalf of the de fendant on the present occasion. because it might have convinced all such libellers, that no address nor no eloquence in the mouth of an advocate, could alter the opinion of the Jury respecting each calumnies. As it was, be had only to prove the case stated on the re cord, and call upon the Jury to judge for his client as they would expect to be judged in their own case, if they were similarly slandered, and to show their sense of the evil which bad been done, by the damages they should award. The plaintiffs operating brewer proved the words set oat in the declaration to have been repeatedly uttered by the defendant. He declared most solemnly, that having been in the plaintiff's employment for 20 years, he could safely state that nothing was made use of iu his brewery but malt, hops, and yeast. Several alehouse-keepers also proved the words stet ted in the declaration. It was stated that persons who lived at a distance ham Baldoek had ceased to take beer of the plaintiff, in consequence of these reports.— One witness, a publican at Hertford, who dealt with the plaintiff, said be was frequently addressed by his ens. towers with theseexpressions: ' Come let us have some of your real Shag beer." This witness stated, that before this slander he used to deal with the plaintiff for beer to the amount of 3or 41. 1 01. a-year ; but for the last three months he had had no beer of him. This was the plaintiff's case. The Under-Sheriff summed up the evidence for the Jury, who retired, and brought in a verdict for the Plaintiff—Damages, Four Hundred Pounds. POLICE. --..e.-- UNION-FIALL.-00 Saturday morning the neighbour hood of Bermondsey was tbrosn into consternation by the report that Mrs. Elisabeth Chamberlain, en elderly woman, who resided in Memolil-street, Bermondsey, had been murdered. It was at a very early hour that the alarm was given, and the street-door was soon crowded with people. At six o'clock, Painter, the constable, who resides near the spot whet, the murder was said to he committed, proceeded to the house without delay. Upon entering the front room on the ground-floor he observed the un fortunate woman, who appeared to be about GO years of age, sitting in a chair nearly opposite to the door. She was leaning with her right arm on a table, and her head was in a reclining position upon her lianil,and she appear ed to be asleep. He felt the body, anti found that it was warm, and, e believed, until be closely examined it, that the life was not extinguished. On nearer view, however, he saw a deep wound over the left temporal artery; that the arms were covered with dry crusted blood. and that the breath was gone. In one corner of the room he ob served a great quantity of blood, and behind the door he found a shawl and apron, which were steeped in blood, and seemed as if they had been used for the purpose of preventing the blood from dowing under the door. On the spot where the deceased sat no vestige of blood was to be seen. neither were there any marks of blood on the table on which her bead reclined. Painter, on mak ing inquiry of some of the lodgers in the house, and others, ascertained that a man, %vim occupied a room nest to that in which the body was found, had been beard quarrelling, or " holding high words" with the deceased on ON previous night about eleven o'clock.— Painter thought it his duty to question this wan, alto was amongst those present, upon the subject of :he dis pute, and the desperate violence that had been done to the deceased, and having received an unsatisfactory and con fused account took him into custody. The prisoner was in the course of the thy brought be fore the Magistrates at Union-liall, when a statement to the above effect was made by Mr. Holland. the overseer of Bermondsey parish. Mr. Holland also stated, that from the appearance of the body, and the condition of the things in the room when he entered he could not conclude that the deceased had committed self-destruction. The prison,' r betrayed no fear or concern ; he appears to be about 50 years of age, and is blind of one eye. The Magistrate, upon looking at Wm at the bar, de sired that his hands and clothes should be examine I.— The officer turned up both his hands (a motion to which no objection was made by the prisoner) and found that the right hand was stained with fresh blood. Magistrate—" Prisoner, how do you account for the marks of blood on your band ?" Prisoner—" Why, I killed two fowls the day before at two o'clock for my master, and their blood is still upon my band." Magistrate- 0 How did you kill the foWls ?" Prisoner—" I wrung their necks, and killed 'em that war." Magistrate—" That method of dispatching fowls sure ly could not have stained your hands in the way iu which they now appear, after so long an interval ?" Prisoner—" That's the way I got the stains however." He was then asked whether he had not done some work since he had killed the fowls? He replied that he had done some hoeing in his master's garden, where he was iu the habit of working. Magistrate—" The work with the hoe would surely wear out the marks of the blood ?" Prisoner—" Oh. no The fowls bled very mach.— The blood was so great that it even scattered over my breeches." The Magistrates then asked the prisoner whether be wished to add any thing to the denial which he ha , l al ready made, but told him he was by no means obliged to say a word ? The prisoner said lie certainly had to deny every thing that had been said likely to implicate him in the death of the poor woman. " God knows," said lie " every thing that passes in my heart; cud lie knows, that I would no mere injure her than my own mother. Why, wh.tt would make me murder her? A man at any time of life, and nearly three years living in one house with her as her lodger! No, Gentlemen, lam quite innocent of the el rinse. The prisoner spoke those words in the most solemn tone, and appeared to he greatly agitated upon hearing that he was to go to prisms until the Coroner's verdict should be given. He persevered In denying the possibility of his being concerned in so atrocious a transaction, although the Ma gistrate represented to him that there was no necessity in repeating the assurances of his innocence, and that they were acting merely from a sense of duty to the public in de taining him. The deceased, he said, he had seen the night before he had found her dead, and sae appeared at that interview to be in liquor. lie advised her to go into bed, but she refused to do so, and was very obstinate. He then retired from her room into his own, and immediately went to bed. After some time he heard her " floundering " about her room, and he called out to her, supposing that she was stripping her self, to know whether site was getting into bed. lie heard, or he thought he heard her say, she was, and he went to sleep. In the morn ng, however, upon entering her room, he Wand tier sitting in the position described. He called to her, bet she made no reply, and then he saw the room co vered with blood like a slaughterhouse, and concluding that she was dead, he ran late the street to alarm the people. It was then tire o'clock, and he had to run about for some time before he could get assistance. The prisoner earnestly begged that the Magistrates would not have him locked up, as he ,was convinced that his master would hail him to any amount, from the convic tion that he would never commit such an act as he was charged with. Thebed-room of the prisoner is Immediately within that of the deceased, and he was obliged to pass through her room to reach his own.—Remanded until the verdict of the Coro ner's Jury shall be male known. Mamas Po um—Saturday.Ma Calcites, a seams. et the ship Mrorge the Fourth, was brought op, charged by his eem. minding officer with having on the high seas wilfully and maliciously stabbed hint with a carting knife with intent to murder him. Captain John Clarke, of the King George the Fourth, deposed, that in the month of February last the ship was at Bombay; on the oth or 10th of February last the prisoner requested leave tcLgo on shore, which •witness ac ceded to, and supplied hint with two sovereigns at the aspiration of the leave, granted he did not return. Witness consequently appliedte the police to apprehend him as a de serter, which was done, and on the foliowinT day he was brought on board, and sentenced to receive two dozen lashes ; be was fastened to the main-rigging for that pur pose, received his lashes, and retnrned to ditty. About three weeks afterwar.ls a complaint was lodged by one of the troop belonging to the 24th Detachment, then on board. I charging the prisoner with stewing rum out of a chest. The I offence being proved, witness ordered him to he put in irons, which the prisoner resisted. lu the art of bring forced to that punishment, he exclaimed, " o—n you, (meaning wit ness,) I'll now be hung for murder!" and drawing a cart ing-kulfe which he had secreted about his person, he plunged it under witness's ear, who fell instantly on the deck. The witness's life was iu consequence for some time despaired of. The case was remanded for further evidence. A gentlemanly-looking man, Captain of a ship, was brought in I Beach;•, an officer, for having possession of a chest of Hyson tea. Deadly stated he met the prisoner in Ratcliff, on Ft i.lay evening, carrying the chest in question, which contained fine Slyson tea. He asked how 1 e came by it? And the defendant answered he brought it trout theship. He asked what ship ? The defendant rejoined the ship. He brought him to the office. Magistrate—How raffle you by this tea ?—Honestly. Magistrate—ls that your account ?—Yes. Magistrate—l shall convict you in 51. penalty; in de fault to be imprisoned six sr eeks, the tea and chest for feited. _ _ . Defendant—l shall pay you the 51.; which he Ihl, aad left the office. MART-La-BONNZ-OPtICZ.—On Saturday two well known characters of the nent-s of Francis Austin and IV. Bray. were brought up by Willans, ao active officer, charged with committing a burglary in the house of Henry Max well, rem. Union-place, New-road. Some of the pro perty stolen from she house, and•a complete burgling apparatus having been found in the apartments of the pri soners, and evidence being produced of their having been seen near the premises, they were both filly com mitted to Navigate. They are supposed to be part of a gang of burgla-; , who have latterly accomplished many extensive robberies in this end of the town. MARKETS AND FAIRS. NORWICH, JULY o.—. There was the largest show of cnttl on the hill last Saturday that have been see* for some time past; they consisted of Scotch, Welch, Delves, and Short horns, but the buyers were very thin and very little busiuess was done. The show of Sheep and Lambs was also very large, but very few were sold, and those without any varia tion in their prices of last week. In Horses and Pigs but little was doing. Ls ex, dot.v Io.—We had a very good supply of Wheat at Market on Tuesday, and the continued fine and genial , weather caused our trade to be very dull, ash; a reduction ofi 2 to Ss. per quarter may be noted from our prices of this day we-k. Fn Barley, Peas, and Oats very little doing. Beans are Ito ios. per qr. lower. Flour the same. ARUNDEL M'ase'r.—Wheat, 14/. to 131. per load; barley, Vs. to 31s. per qr.; Oats. 2?s. to 2d.s. per qr.; Pease, .ss. 6(1., Beans, as. fkl. and Tares. 6s. per bushel ; Flour, 465. to 48s. per hag—vr gallon, IM. qoarterit loaf, gd. At;Arundel cattle market, on Tuesday, there was but very little alteration from the prices of the last market-day. The supply was beyond an average one in all kinds of stock of the ;tamest quality, particularly of \Vetch runts, and of %tether mutton. The prices were as follow:—Reef, Ss. 101. to 4s. per stone ; wether mutton, 4s. to 4s. to tkl. ; ewe mutton, Its. tad. to 44.; lamb, 44. Sd. Chichester Beast Market, on Wednesday, had a very fell supplysof all kinds of stock, which caused a heavy sale; and much of the cattle was driven away unsold,—the sellers not liking to lower the prices, and buyers not caring to give the prices asked. CHICESTER Coax MARKET.—The Corn trade appears pretty steady; the following is the Inspector's return up to the sth, viz :—Wbett, Gls. Odd. ; and Beans, 40s. p-r qr. At Spalding Horse fair, last'hionday week, horses would scarcely sell at any price. At Rugby fair, on Monday last, mutton. of which there was a good supply, ged bed. per !b. ; lamb, Bd. ; beef, Sid. to Bd. There was about the usual number of horses, which sold at prices similar to those obtained at late fairs. At War wick fair, on Saturday se'nnight, fat Cattle sold from qd. to 6d. per lb. sinking the offal. Mutton, from 4d. to 61d. Store Cattle but dull sale. At Lincoln Midsummer fair. on Saturday se'nnight, the quantity of live stock was not very lerre, and prices were about the same as at the late markets. There was an indif ferent show of horses, for which there was little demand, except for ponies, which sold for extraordinary prices, in some instances nearly twice as much as they would have fetched at Lincoln April fair. The day was remarkably fine, and a large assemblage of country lads and lasses enjoyed the pleasures of their usual holiday. Swansea fair, on Wednesday last, produced hut an Indif ferent show of horned cattle, and the little business trans acted was upon disadvantageous terms for the grazier. We saw but few good horses present ; those of the pony kind were numerous, and met with ready purchasers at moderate prices. Llandillo fair, on Saturday week, was supplied with an uncommon number of cattle, so considerable as to extend to a greater length than has been seen for some years. A great number of horned cattle was sold, but did not support the prices which the late rise had encouraged their owners to expect.—Good horses were much in request, and sold un- ; commonly well. Wednesday's fair at Cleansel was well stocked with Cat tle, for the most part in prime condition; but we cannot add that it held out any encouragement to the Grazier. CORONER'S freuuss.t.—An inquisition was taken on Saturday night, before Mr. limns, Deputy Coroner for Wesminster, at the Feat ers.St.Martin's-street, Leicester square, on the body of Charles Watson, aged SO. Mr. Francis kurith, of No. 12, Blue Cross street, depose that the deceased lived in Isis house, and occupied rh first floor. lie became a widower about four nists.thi ago. since which Isis mind had hem's. much affected.— It appeared that on Friday the deceased was found sus pended by a piece of the bed cord from tlte top of the W.. Verdict—Temporary derangement. Before committimz the fatal set, the deceased appeared to have been praying, as a !tilde was found by his side. SCIC/DE.—Early on Tuesday morning, Mt.

The sacred institution, then, of marriage, compasses the desideratum of our enjoyment; teeming not only with hap piness on earth, ' , it disposing the soul itself to harmonize with bliss hereafter. Previous, however, to entering into this hallowed obli gation, it becomes an imperative duty, not only to regulate the passions, but to cleanse the er..sser nature from those impurities which the freedom of unrestricted pleasure may have entailed upon it. To the neg•ect of such attention are attributable, many of those hapless instances, which, while they excite the commiseration of the beholder, should also impress him with the fear of self-reproach. Luxurious habits will efferninize the body —a residesice in the tropics will relax the elastic fibre—hut more especially does the premature infatuation of youth too frequently com promise the natural-dignity into a state of inanition, from whence the agonized sun - e'er more than doubts the chance of relief. To all such, then, we addre-ts ourselves, offering hope—energy—muscular strength—felicity' nor will our advances appear questionable, sant-tinned as they ere by the multiplied proofs of twenty rears successful experience.
