There were, however, no pecalier circumstances at tending this cue, and he should only state to them the facts which !rift'homier d in it, and on the proof of which he should fuur.d his Vann to their verdict. In 1603, the plairdiff, Viscount Lismore, frapied th Hon. Lady Eleanor Butler, the daughter of the pre. aset.Dowegety hlarehiooess of Ormond ; they lived together fly beverel jeata , trd the fruit of their union was foot children—three ;ohs and a daughter. A het living together some time sabsequent • Ilia birth of the youngest child, their domestic happiness became dicurSed by reisunderstandiegs, and certain differences of temper • rer.der:d it extremely r ksesne for them to retitle together, sad a plan see proposed the them to separate. It happened occa slonally that domestic differetices would arise in all families, mere V? lee, bat no greater prod could he given of the opinion which .oh.l Idanere entertained of her Ladyship's virtue and honour, than ti e awe-meet which be acceded to, of advancing her jointure :ram the sum of I.OOOL to that of 2,5001. a-year ; and We hope was yr.trAiesl I:7 the 'friends of both parties, notwithstanding this ebul- Whet or reelino,, resulting from such causes, that by-and.by these 41, QM, of temper might subside, and that Lord and Lady Lis. more 'nigh core together again, and live in that state of connubial ttaeploc.-- s which had been thus temporarily brohen in upon. The Iceetatkin t, ok place is 1819 ; tho. two eldest sons were then at it.hool, and Lady Lismotte, who was then in England, chiefly re. s dad with her own family. At the time of the separation, Lord Lien-ore', e•wves in Ireland were scarcely produ.o.ve of anything. owing to • b disturbed state of that country., and his affairs wero so =much embarraseed, that serious doubts wire entertained whether tie could make good the payment of the allowance thus sgretd stoop ; but as her LaSysh to's own family was very affluent, at ci as It was expected that ultimately a recoreiliation would be effected, aid that if ;he annual sum wale not regularly paid up, it could be suppled by her own family, which could be fioally paid off' by the plaintiff this .sum was not objected to by his Lordship. The Learned Counsel mentioned this tact, because he believed It would be surd that in 1621 Lis Lordship altogether failed in paying up the econtai allowance, and that the Lady was driven by distress to the o ar ash. Mal adapted. He would not disguise the fact, that at the: time his le, dship s peconiery ditficulties were considerably in_ reared. aoo him Itesh property daily became less valuable. One of the canes of the quarrel between Lord and Lady Lismore was, ybet be had net the means to take her Ladyship ahrosi. which he bad partite to do. On the separation it was agreed that two of :he chldren shadd remain with her Ladyship. She soon after ibis departed for the Continent, taking the two children and a young hey, %tote / was Paring, as her companion, with her. About eve years ellipses!, when, in Ism her Ladyship returned to Eng trot and af er making a short stay in London, she went abroad rat', to make a toot, but did not that time take her children with her. Miss Pitting, and another Ltd! who was under Alin P.'s charge. accompanied het Ladyship on this secor.ct occasion. her fro It-, the Marquis at Ormond, was to have gore with her, !.:in consequence or his Lordship's ill health his journey was Eostpored, and it was pranged that his Lordship shrub join her ra lilting spring: Het Ladyship proceeded to Rome, where she it t became acquainted with the defendant, the Hon. Richard Hingham, who was the son of Lord Lucas, but by what means Ito i ri• Scarlett) was not aware. This was early in 1822, or late Afterwards her Ladyship travelled towards Naples, and :hive t • defendant followed her, and became very much attached rc LaeyL emote, and paid her Ladyship the most marked atten tion. He was not &awe that anything at that date bad taken place he wee" the panies, but Miss Paring observing the 1111 Macy hat existed between her Ladyship and the defendant, ,oaten a :ter L .oysitip that she would net remain with her if she :vent n :el to pursue die course she was then doing, alluding to her mtioiroy with the defendalt. Cereaitt it was, that Miss Patine at d bur niece, bliss Chapple, left her Ladyship at Naples, in May, IW.. Lady 1.1 more remained there about twelve months after . viola, when she left on the 3d of May, 1823, for timers. Mr. HinghaM left Naples ore night previously, and waited for her ...ady hip ate town called Molagaieta, about b 0 miles from Naples, and they tl en proceeded together till they arrived in Switzerland, - where they parted. There were strong grounds for suspecti• g that a criminal conversation had at this time taken place; but the sus. b.cions of the estate of heir intimacy was confirmed by what took place at Verona, in Lombaidy, where they had subsequently met. teirse hit Ladyship . and the defendant stopped at the same hotel. Them were commuoteations between their bed.roonts. Mr. Bing ham was unwell dotting their stay here, and his bed was conveyed co het 4 o radyship's roan, on which occasion the fact took plate. Lay Luvore then proceeded to Paris, and lived some time in the isuroe hotel with her brother. After some time the defendant came to Pa's, and the visits between the parties were renewed. The tact dna very ma:krd attention shown by the defendant to her Ladyship, attracted the notice of her Ladyship's brother, and in caosequsice something took place which he (Mr. Scarlett), for vast of stricient evidence, was prevented from stating. Certain. L9wever ' it was, that something occurred which caused Lord Qrgiontl to prohibit Mr. Bingham's shins, and the consequence gas, that her Ladyship soon after left her brother's hotel, at Paris, and went to that which was °caroled by Mr. Bingham, and placed • sands his rote:don. The absence of her Ladyship or. co:hotted great agitation to Lord and Lady Ormond, and ap plication was made to Mr. Bingham, to know whether he could say that her Ladyship was safe. His answer was, that her . I...ulyship could not be seen, but assured his Lordship of Tire barbel and wry. These were the facts which lie should base. to ornve to the Jury, and having done so, he should, he Pc' ved; be clearly entitled to their verdict. But he under stool taint his Learned Friend (Mr. Brougham)ac the other aide . ..ifinreicd letting up the deed of separation between the plain• tia , ana LedyLismnre, u a bar to the present action; but he appre. headed obit Iris Learned Friend would find himself mistaken, for theta were a variety of cases where it had been decided that a sepia tar,. was rot a bar to an action of this nature, unNI4 that gapers %Jon ass founded on the previous incontinency on the part of the whC^, which had come to We knowledge of the husband, or stone tents motive, which would prevent the possibility of the parties be. coming again reconciled to each other. The fact of separation between tau bend and wife, which ton often occurred, was not to be celnsidered as a pertnanent division of the parties. We often ob. agreed such •xurrences take place between those whose tempers or tiittee, or other causzs, rot partaking in the slightest degree of a sanity orerimiaal nature, could not harmonise, but al/matter being taught by t x :eriet ce, and a further and better knowledge of the liftrild and of hointio netare, would come together again, and spend do remainder o their lives in domestic tranquillity and peace. At et events, whe her the pariiza re , nuined separate or 110 i. /till as tar Ittenorai °hits...a...mu was conceit ed, the for bald must hare a sort of 1,1 w : a iar the character and reputation of his wife; for though I is kontediste peounal protection is not upon, yet he has other euties no pee'orm i and besides the trait may come when he may IS lad to watts the alOwAnce made by him, and recall her to P.4,beere, so gist her chetah/ and his horour are equally to be filer s to twit a aiding they lived apart.

When we returne3 I bee.: never seen Mr. Bingham at her Ladyship's house. Winn I lett Lady Lismore I took my niece with me, and returned to England. I visited oilier families ; on my return home at night I [testr found defendant here. 1 eroas.ezasnined by Mr. BROUGHAM—Lady Lismore was in 1819 about :".• years of age; act:indent was about 13 or 19. Lady Lismore tell ill in 1311. I uhdtrcood at that period a warmer climate was recommended to her ladyship by her pmfeasional advisers. Her health was worse in 1814. She did not go abroad in consequence of such recommendation. In 1817 she was much worse, and I had been summoned to attend her abroad. They did not go. I never heard them aiffer on that subject. It ap. peered that Lord Lismore was mry dilatory. In the summer of 1818 the family returned to his Lodship's estate in Ireland. In consequence of ber Ladystsp's ir.cressing indisposition, it was again recommerded that she should go abroad. The family came to London for that purpose. Her Ladyship did not go abroad at that time. Lady L. had not then a carriage; she had no, com mand of money; I frequeotiy lent her money for gloves, clothes, &c. In May, 1819, her Ladyships cough spin came on. She was adi hied to gn to the Continent. W e went to Ramsgate on our way, as we thought, to the Continent ; hut we did not go further than Raansofte. Various circumstances pre vented us. His Lordship was oh:hoed to return to London on bu siness. The Dowager Lady Ormond had left Ramsgate. and re. tamed, in consequence of a letter received by her son, the Marquis, from lard Liao:tore, proposing a separation. The Dowager re quested me to communicate the contents of the letter to Lady Lis. more. I made the communication. Her Ladyship then went to her brother's, at Eltham„ in KV'. t. I returned to London, and saw Lord lasinore; I told him her Ladyship was dangerously ill, and that his refusal to go abroad with her, and separation, was the cause. Her illness at that period was so serious, that 1 was k obliged to call in a physician, to whom 1 felt it necessary to state the chcunistances under which the aggravation of her Ladyship's illness load taken place. She offered to remain in England, if her children were allowed to remain with her Ladyship ; she was ex•remely averse to going abroad without his Lordship. %l'hen she became so ill, in September, 1819, as to make it really necessary to go to the Continent, she was extremely anxious to see Lord Lismore before she went. He did not come to her, and she went abroad without taking leave of him. VVlrlst at Naples her Ladyship's brother died. After this she was greatly distressed, and was reduced to 2s. Rd. among the whole family. We were obliged to pay ready money fcr every thing; the only man servant was cook. footman, and every thing. The news of the dangerous illness of the eldest son of her Ladyship was sent to Rome by Lord Lismore. We immediately came to England, travelling post. Lady Lismore was dreadfully agitated. The children accompanied her Ladyship to England. Oa our arrival the son was quite welt, and had been but indisposed in a very slight degree. The children were here taken front her Ladyship. We returned to the Continent without them. %Ve went to Rome. Ilex Ladyship, in consequence of the delays in the remittances, was obliged to pawn her jewellery at a banker's on the first tour, she was compelled to borrow money of her own servant; on the second ' she received money from her own family. I always understood het Ladyship's pin-money was 1,00(1!. a y.:ar. I know that she brought I a very large fortune to Viscount Lismore. Re-examined by -Mr. Soma ETT—Ni'llen the news of the son's dangerous illness was forwarded to tit, we returned to England in about twenty days. Ido not know that plaintiffs's estate in Ireland is in a disturbed county ; it is in Tipper ry. Her Ladyship re. caved a remittance at Rome after she had pledged her jewels, but not enough to redeem them. nor as much as she expected. Sarah Mead, examined by Mr. SCARLETT—I went abroad with Lady Lismore in 1810 as her servant, and returned to England with her Ladyship in 1821. I saw Mr Bingham first at Rome; he followed her Ladyship in Naples, and came to the some hotel. Miss Patin" and her tiieve left the family there. We remained a twelvemonth afterwards. 31r. Bingham continued at the same hotel until her Ladyship removed to a country.house io the neigh. bourhood. Defendant left the hotel for a lodging near that country house. 01 the 4th of May, 1823 ac left Naples fur beneya. Defendant had gore away the preceding evening. On the 6th of May we overtook him in Mole di Gaeta. IVe remained there one ' night, and then travelled, Mr. B. going with us to Rome. Her Ladyship and defendant went to different hotels. When we left Rome we were joined by defendant at Ancona. They travelled ' together to Verona; defendant's servatnt there made the beds; we I remained there three nights ; I remember Mr. Bingham being un- ' well ; he then had a bed-room next to that of her Ladyship; his bed was removed to her Ladyship's room ; I was, by his orders ' to take him earns maid,. in the morning; I took it; he was in her i Ladyship's bed ; her Ladyship was in bed with him ; on leaving 1 Verona, went to Berne; defendant was with us there; we all re rosined at the same hotel; it was in June 1823. In a few days deferdant left Berne for Paris ; we followed in ten days; we mom at Fontainbleau ; Mr. Hingham was there; we re. maned there two rights at the mime hotel; defendant went on first to Paris ; her Ladyship followed, and took up her rest. deuce at the Hotel d'Adonral ; defendant was also there. On the arrtvl of Lord and Lady Ormond at Paris, her Ladyship went to reside with them at the Hotel des Isle Britain-Agues, in the Rue de Pail; his Lordship had a communication with me; her Lady-' ship remained with her brother. arsl then left the hotel. I know the evening she . quitted it. I did not know of her going at the time. She left in the evening, and at Lord Ortnonti's request I went to Mr. Bingham ' • Lady Lismore had left at four o'clock in the morning, at the Hotel Souris ; I saw him there, and inquired from Lord Ormond respecting her Ladyship; he said she was safe.— That was all that pasted. I did not desire to see her Ladyship, and did not see her for six weeks after, when I saw her at the same hotel. Cross-exammed by Mr. LAW.—I entered into the service of Lady Lismore in January 1818 ; 1 was with her at Mirart's Hotel ; I have never said it was distressing to see the treatment which her Ladyship received from the plaintiff; defendant was attached to the embassy of Sir W. A'Court at Naples ; her Ladyship was greatly in want of money both at Rotre and Naples ; I do not know that she applied to defendant on the subject. I did not re join her after she left the Hotel. General Sir Robert O'Callaghan, examined by Mr. ADAMS— I am brother to plaintiff. His es:ates in Ireland are in the counties of Tipperary, Cork, and Limerick. These counties have been in a very disturbed state. My brother, in consequence of the dis turbance, received but a eery inconsiderable proportion of the recta. There are several heavy incumbrances on the estate. I hare a charge upon the:n. Up to the time of the aeparution my brother was unable to pay me the interest. My brother's jointure is noon the estates of his Lordship. It was with considerable difficulty he paid her a portion of such jointure. The difficulty of getting rents from Ireland existed until lest year. My demand upon my brother is very considerable. There were several dis c cussions on the subject of the separation, at which I was present. The 31arquis of Ormond insisted upon the allowance on the sepa -1 ration being larger than was proposed by my brother, and he consented. Catiss.examined by Mr. 11110IICIIIA ni-51y brother has resided for a Writ s of years at Shanbally L astle in "Ireland, excepting during the vacation, when ho has generally come to England to reside at his mother's, for the purpose of seeing his children.

Mr. SCA ILEST—fhat is our case, my Lord. Mr. BROUGHAM rose to address the Jury. Those who had been a considerable time in the profession of the law had all, without excepeion, he was sorry to say, had a portion of expe rience in eases of this description ; but it had not often occurred, even to him, who had had no inconsiderable share of experience, to have heard cry advocate open a case of this kind in a more mo. deltaic, not to Ray humble, tone than his Learned Friend had done today. No topics of aggravation, not only no extraordinary fact to address to the feelings of the Jury. but not eves the common and every day topics of sympathetic distress, of domestic affliction, of wives torn from the affectionate embraces of their husbands, of mothers, that dear and precious parent, forced from their children, of children divided for ever from their af9icted and in jured mother's ;lean, of domestic happiness broken up, peace of mind destroyed forever, of the misery, and havoc, add desolation of the hap,,iness of a worthy house, borne wildiy down sod broken through by the cunning of the heartless seducer. who, to gratify his lawless passion, had crushed the blooming affections of a happy circle, reckless of the ruin which his villany had made. Now these were topics which he had heard again and again in these and like ;daces, adorned by the pathetic I.siguage of his friend (Mr. Sculett) till Jury were ready to stamp with indignation, or dissolve in tears at the tale of woe sac powirfully wrought up. But not one of those things bad been menticnod to-day. They had had, however, ever inroad, the plain seatetnent of the marriage, and the adultery, and hero, said his Learned Friend. as if he were the advocate to re cover the amount ef a promissory note, when I have proved these facts, I shall be entitled, Gentlemen, to your verdict. But not a single remark or observation had he ventured to make upon those facts, feeling the excess of ridicule a hich would ettanh to it when the real facts ensue out. Thus was most judicious, meet commend able, on the part of his friend, who krew well how to act on these occasions. But if there wcre evidence of the marriage and of the adultery, that was all them was. The nature of this action, how ever, required something more to entitle the plaintiff to damages. for this action watt not to punish the defendant criminally because they knew nothing about his crime; the action had been brought by Lord List:note for tompenitat.on of the damages he hoed sustain. 44 by the set elf the defendant, but some evidence should have been if=s Or rbeg ;bat damage ors ; eesneetidsoc.abould bate beer gives of the injitry anatained before calling upon them for compentation. But what was the evidence ? Not a single person had been called who ki:ew the real situation of the parties for three years previous to the reparation, except General O'Callaghan, and even he, though called, had not been asked one question as to the terms on which hoed and Lady Lismore lived. Ile (3lr. Brougham) saw that flair attention was drawn to this fact, and their minds made up u to the cot:salvation of the ca-e. But Miss Pating was asked, it is tine, one questioUt they did screw up their nerves to that pitch, and his Learned Friend (Mr. Scarleit) put to that lady the interrogatory, upon what terms did the plaintilffand Lady Liamore live? Mark the answer. Oh 1 pretty much upon the lame term.. as most married people do. But how did you know that, Miss Paling ? Did you live with them at that time? 0 ! no, not for three years before. So that it appeared that no question was put to any person who had the least kp b owledff of the mode in which these parties lived for three yeas preceding their separation. In the absence of all proof of their living happily together, he should draw the conclusion that their home was a home of misery—a home of discord, and prison of unhappiness. Even Mr. Scarlctt had said that their differences were such that they could not live to gether; then lie (Mr. Brougham) would say it was immaterial what was the state of the happiness existing between them at first. The Jury were to take them as they were found when Mr. Bing. ham formed the COTlrie4ioll complained of. As to earflaps, Lord Liamore himself had apstur.ed their amount, and had placed them at the lowest slim at which the Jury could fix them. The Learned Gentleman then wok a teview of the circunistaneca which had come out in evidence, and corn. mented with prat severity, and much sarcasm, on the cruelty prac tised towards Lady "Atmore by her Lord. The separation was entirely Lord Lismore'a own suggestion, and lief Ladyship's health was much of by the communication; so much so, that a physician was obliged to be called In. After this she was suf feredto be reduced to the extremest &strata, being even des. thump of morey staff...hat to buy herself food, in a country where no credit was given. The plea of the failure of the Banks of Ireland was no reason for allowing her to pawn her jewels, to borrow money of her own courier, to be reduced to halha-crown in the whole house, becanse as long as Lord Lis mote had a guinea in the world it was his bounden duty to hate spared her as much as he could of it, preserving only just enough to sustain himself and his children. If he had felt for her distress he would have shut up Shanbally Castle, and have gor.e into any smaller residence, so as pot to Have left her destitute. This then was the case he had against the plaintiff, and was a most compiele answer to hit demand for damages. It was for the Jury to say, whether Lord 'Atmore, seeing that he had received a very large fortuno, liesides the inestimable possession of her personal Wine. tions and her virtues, and who had been so bad a guardian over them that he had almost compelled her to follow such scourge, which WWI inconsistent with those virtues—it was for them to say whether such a person was entitled to ask of them more money than he had with her at lieu. It was Lady Liamore who had a right to corn. plain. She was the party Injured ; and it was his Lordship's con. duct towards her that had led her to the commission of, an offence which attached disgrace to a name that till now had ever remairitd aneallied. The Jury would not waist gentlemen in working this ruin upon their wives, and converting it to their own pecuniary be. Deli% They would teach a lesson to this plaintiff, which, if too late to penetrate him, might come in time to save other women front be. canting the victims titan indulgence of the temper and Imprudence of their husbands, which, in this instance, had entailed so much pain upon at least one person. The Lott]) CH lEt Jurtlict summed cp the evidence, making some few observations on the absence of any aggravated circum stances in the preterit case. and particularly on the youth of the de. tendant, and advised the Jury to be temperate in the damages they should award. The Jury consulted about five minutes, and returned a verdict for the plaintid: Damages—One Shilling. FROM SATURDAY NIGHT'S GAZETTE. MILITARY PROMOTIONS.

VINDICATION OF THE OBJECTHoiTHEiiIWIiBLE LOAN BANK COMPA, Y, •SID PROOFS or THE NECESSITY 'Poi ITS ESTABLISHMENT. By many misrepresentations, interested persons hare endravoured to excite prejudice against this Comsat y. and to misguide the public mind. They saw that the Immense gains would maw which they have extracted from the hcbitual wants of the poor, the occa binnal uecemities of the respectable, and the temporary diatreas of manufacturing and commercial men; and they have had recourse to calumny, tuisstaternent. and abuse; and, by appeals to hu manity and prejudice, and by reiterated declarations about mono poly, eitury, and combination, they have alarmed the timid, agitated the compassionate, appalled the timorous, and almost con founded the intelligent. To dissipate the delusion, and to counteract these designs, it will only be necessary to explain the object of the Company, and the nature of their Bill. 01 the object of the Company, no political economist—no bene factor of the poor no well-wisher to the prosperity of the country— can wisely complain. The sole object is the advance of money on good+, at legal interest, to persons who need temporary loans. This object who should oppose? Is there any substantial ob jection to loans effected by mortgages on lands? What objection cart there be to loans on goods, except thnt there will be no tedious investigations of titles, nor costly demands for deeds ? Can such an object be condemned at a period when the science of political economy is studied and understood ? What are such loans, but an appropriation of capital in aid of husbar.timen, manufacturers, and merchants, which will cssist their operations. and promote ir di ridual prosperity and public wealth ? Shall it be objected that such benefits may not be effected by a Company ? • For what pur pose mono harmless or more laudable can Companies be formed ? What is the stock of the Company, but the union of many small unappropriated capitals, and how obvious the utility of an establish ment by which small capitalists may find 'the means of rendering their capitals productive, and by which the husbandman, manufac turer, or merchant, needing a temporary increase of capital, may certainly, anti on equitable terms, obtain, in a moment of exigence, the capital he needs. . . As io the declaration that the establishment is not necessary— that it is disgraceful for gentlemen to become pawnbrokers—that usury and extortion will be practised—and that humanity forbids any establishment that may interfere with the sacred rights of pawn. brokers and money-tenderer—do the► merit a reply ? If the Com pany be not necessary—if there be no difficulty in obtaining tem porary loan at goods—if there be now no extortions—the Company will have no bu►ine-o—tbe capital will not be required or advanced —and what prejudice can result ? As to the discredit of a connex ion with that Company, how futile the emulation ! Is it dishonour able to be a capitalist ? Is it dishonourable to apply unappropri ated Capital to encourage enterprise, promote industry, or relieve distress ? Is such occupation less honourable than the occupation of a banker. whose advantage results not from such appropriation of his own capital, but from an appropriation by him, fur his own advantage, of the unappropriated capital of his customers entrusted to his care ? But can the Company become usurers ? Then in each case :hey will be subject to all the penalties of the Usury Laws, and, from their public character, cannot engage in the clandestine transactions by which individuals constantly elude those laws, com pelling their victims to submit to additional extortions, to indem nify them against all hazards incurred. And appeals to sensibility on behalf of pawnbrokers and moneylenders appear supremely ab surd. Is ale the compassion to be bestowed on the pawnbroker and usurer. and witheld from the wretched mechanic. the distressed gentleman, the enterprising manufacturer, and the farmer, who would be ruined by some untimely and instant sale of stock ? Is the existing monopoly in favour of pawnbroker* to be for ever con tinted by the prevention of that competition by other and united Capitalists, which, by reducing the rate of in crest required, will lessen the burdens of the oppressed, and give new energy to indus. try and skill ? And when the poor man may be relieved in the in. tenet which he pays on his little pledge. and all other classes ob tain certain assistsoce, by the payment of legal interest for a loan, instead et 20 and 30 per cent. now required. shall not benevolence unite with justice to applaud the object of this institution, and to express a wish for its sumo? Of the necessity for an Institution with this object, there are few Metropolitan Magistrates, or disinterested persons, who are not well convinced. The necessity is even demonstrated by the cla moutons, expensive, opposition displayed. Who are or can be the oppo rots? Not the borrowers of money. Who, but the per. sons who are obtaining such profit by lending money or buying jobs on terms lucrative to themselves, as they know nothing can be obtained by any other business in which their monies might be employed; especially as such persons have no extensive erections, or vast machinery, or costly apparatus, which would occasion leas, if their business be diminished, or their occupation should he gone. But the necessity rests not on conjecture; it has been esta blished by prows,. From the very p.,or, ago make many million pledges under 101. annually, an average interest of more than 23 per cent. and soil:cants.' 2001. per cent. annually is obtained. A yearly sum of four hundred thousand pounds is received out of the earnings of the poor, and the rates made for their relief; and Pau nbrokers themselves borrow money at 10 per cent. tp re-lend at such enormous profits to the poor! It has also been proved, that by fariaers, manufacturers, and merchants, and even by persons cf high character and elevated rank, occasional loans on goods at legal interest are often required, and that immediate relief can ra ely be obtained without the payment of from 20 to 30 per cent. or a sacri fice of goods to the job or e• Slaughter-houses" of the Metropolis, at a loss a hich leads to further antarressment and final ruin, and which involves creditors and families in a vortex of wretchedness and woe. An Establishment for this object has been long recommended by philanthropic and enlightened men, and was sanctioned by the highest authorities won had patronised " Les Mots de Pixie," in all parts of the Continent, and has assisted in Russia large and useful charities, by the especial profits it is there allowed to obtain. In the accomplishment of their object, the Company will endea. your to meet the wants of every class. First, to the poor, who borrow clime under 10L—they are bound by their own Bill to charge 20 per cent- less interest than Pawnbrokers may leg ally de mand; and about tifty thousand pounds will be thus r eally be. slowed upon the poor. And, second, by Establishments in the mcropolis, and in other parts of the country, they will grant im mediate Cash accommodation to Farmers, Manufacturers, Mcr. chants, ind Importer,. requirieg ocly 3yer cent. interest on their advances, and the paytnent of %Itch strict!, legal and returnable charges for wareheestng of goods as shall Just reunburse their ex. perve. Alum it not then be incontrovertible, that to represent the design as an injurious bubble—the Establishment as an ofrenee--and object as unworthy, can only be attempted by the interested, the ignorant, or the rrverie ? Must it net be incontrovertible that the object of the Company is rather praiseworthy than improper --that it cannot prejudicially interfere with the trade of any merchant, shopkeeper, nienufacturer, or artisan : but that by assisting the needy or industrious in some exigent moment, it will support pub lic and private credit, end produce much general good ? For the attainment of this ehjeet the Company is already formed --and the 11.11 depending in Parliament dues not create or establish the Company, nor canter on them any ore exclusive privilege or right. The Bill is only . a Bill to enable them to sue and be sued, and to take out licences in the name of their clerk. The Bill has triumphantly paired the Howe of Commons. with a large majority, and is next to be read a second time in the House of Lords. Indeed such Bills have been sanctioned by the highest financial and legal authorities in both Houses of Parliament. be. cause they are as useful to the puhlic as to the Companies, and facilitate proceedings against them, if they incur a debt or be guilty of a wrong. After this correct and candid statement of the objects of the Com pany and of their Bill, it i. hoped that not only the poor, whose burdens will be rel ieted. and the agriculturist and manufacturer, who may require occasional and temporary aid, but that all the intelli. gent and liberal minded, who pity the poor, who would gram to the young tradeso:on apprapriate aid, who would rescue the unfortunate from the great grasp of usury. and who would promote rnanufactur. ir.g end commercial enterprise, will concur with the Royal and illustrious personages who hove patronised the measure, and grant the Company approval and export. This is the Anniversary of Bien selling the Three Thirty Thousand Pound Prizcs, noticed in front of his house in Cornhill ; therefore it periAps way be a good day for buying the Two Thirty Tho::sand Pound Prises that are to be drawn neat mond..

A man named Edrat ds was brought to the Justice-room, before Alderman Tuonrsost, charged with having in possession several bank notes of the Gravesend Bank, part of the parcel which was some time ago itolen out of the Gravesend coach. Die parte: it will be remembered containec 1,043!. in notes, of the above-men tioned bank, the proprietors of which have been era since the robbery engaged is the endeavour to detect the thieves. Mr. Cope stated that the prisoner called at Messrs. Williams and Co.'s, Birchin.lsne. on Saturday, three or four times, while there was a treat deal of bovine,' going forward in the house, and the clerks were all a:copied, and presented several of the one pcund notes which had been stolen out of the box of the Gravesend coach. In the hurry of business, cash or Bunk of England notes were given for them. It wan, however, afaer the prisoner, who had thus gut rid of about 2111. worth of the stolen notes, went away, ascertained that they were pert of the parcel. Yesterday morning the prisoner made his appear.ence at the banking-house, supposing, no doubt , that the thing was undetected, an d offered another stolen note fur payment. The cleris knew him, and the note, and immediately took him foto eustrlty. Alderman THOM ?sox asked the prisoner how he could accona: for the posse.sion of the notes. He replied, that he was a travelling jeweller, and had dealings with persons of whom he knew nothing. He, however, recollected that be had taken Gravesend notes of a person in exchange tur some articles of jewellery on Friday last- He then, in anNw.:r questions front Alderman Thompson, told various contriMictory atones of his dealings with the person of what' he had taken the notes, and pressed very bard upon the Alderman the propriety of admitting imbed. The Alderman, however, ordered that be should be detained in custody until Wednesday, in cyder that the parties might have time to appear. • MARKETS. CORN EXCHANGE, Aram ts With the exception of Oats, the Supply of Grain sines last Moo day has not been extensive; this meaning we had a few fresh ar rivals from Sussex, Essex, and Kent. The fine descriptions of S% being scarce, met a ready sale" to-day, but the middling and interior sorts continue very heavy sale. Malting Barley was in de mand, and the turn dearer; but middling sorts were difficult to dispose of. The supply of Oats was extensive, one-half of which was from Ireland : we had no material variation in prices this morning, hut the business was tither limited. Old Beans scarce, and wuntesl, but new ones were plentiful, though not cheaper. Boiling Pease were cheaper; but good dry Grey Pease sold on much the same terms as last week. Lins..esi and Rapeseed both heavy sale, wi'hout variation in price& There was not any inquiry fur hond4 Grain to-day ; and the prices of every article under lo:k must be considered quite nominal.

We are authorised to state that individua ls personally acquainted with the localities of Peru, as well as practical miners, are on the eve of departing or that country, for the purpose of taking possession of mines and mineral ground, for and on account of the Anglo-Peruvian Mining Association. We notice another Pearl Company, under the title of " The Pacific Pearl Fishery." And from the highly re spectable names, intimately connected with business, which form its direction, the best results will, no doubt, arise front their operations. When we reflect on the objects of the Company—the intercourse which they will necessarily establish with the natives of islands so distant, becomes an object of national interest. We understand it is another material part of the plan, to direct their attention to the collection of the Sandal Wood, now become so scarce and valuable, both in Europe and in China, the trade in which for some years the Americans have almost entirely possessed themselves. The objects of tae Company must eventually lead to the establishment of an intercourse productive of the most permanent benefits. BIRTHS.
