*PIM Inside the skin of the neck, both shoulders, and breast in hem. The prisoner accounted the it by saying that the child had fallen dawn a chimney. The cause of death was effuaiot. in the bend, and en inflammation of the lungs that corresponded to the in. jar's, Oa the cheat. 'Joon Hanlon, a child about five or six years old, was here pro. duced on the table. This very interesting little child, if we consi der his features merely, notwithstanding the most squalid misery, email give no account whatever of himself. He was totally ig ' natant of any principle or doty of religion—had never been to any how of worship, or been taught a prayer, and had never heard of bell or heaven! This child having been dismissed, his mother was brought up on the table. When called upon by the Court to give some ac. count of herself, said she was an Englishwoman, which was evident from bee accent; that.

Said further, that she rainefrom Basingstoke, in Hampshire. tier husband is dead, he *As a pensioner, and she is seven years in Ireland. To Lord Nurbuty--ithe knew nothing of a Parsln Craven, who lived at Basingstoke. The unfortunate woman retired, after receiving some immer collected fur her round the table. rdlOrtly after the ease of the prisoner had been given in charge by his Lordship to the Jury, they returned a verdict of " Guilty of ilanslaughter," and the prisoner was ►entenced to transportation tur life. AN EXECUTION AT MADRID. The square at Cebada, at Madrid, is what the Greve is at Paris, the spot where executions take place. It is opposite to the chapel of St. [sitlore, on the way between the gate of Toledo and the Pieta Mayor. It is an irregular space, suraninded by mean houses, aed having barracks, black-looking and dirty, erected in the middle of It. Their tops were crowded with spectaeora when we entered ; for, upon the most open side were two wooden posts, united at the top by a cross beam, being the horn?, or gallows, prepared for an execution. That morning, men clothed in black had gone from street to street with a bell, begging alms and the prayers of thepeo phi for the poor convietti—.-a young girl and her lover, who were hanged at noon. The girl had been in service, and had robbed her *fleeter, and the young man had advised and aided hercrime. The condemned persons had been since the previous day in the chapel, whale, before a large black crucifix, surrounded by monks and priests, and already loaded with the irons which were not again to be taken oft, they prepared themselves for the fatal moment, and heard the prayers for the dead, which the other prisoners chaunted for them at no great distance. The route by which they arrive at the elect of execution is a mournful lengthening out of the agony of the prisoners. There is an altar on the staircase of the prison, where they stop as they are descending, and hear the long last exhortation pronounced. Ordinarily they say something to the other prisoners, who crowd to the grates, and throw themselves on their knees before the culprits, already, as they believe. remise cited to Heaven, and ere long to discharge the debt of earthly jus tice. Two asses waited without, to carry them to the place of punishment. Early in the morning of an executicn, guards, sta tioned at the gate of Toledo, loot out for the arrival of the peasants of the neighbourhood, who commonly arrive riding upon their anew. and the first of these animals that make their appearance are laid hold et, tikencombered of their riders, and led towards the . prison. It is not t1:1 after they have performed their part ist the sad tragedy preparing that they are again permitted to go at large. Be.• tore they are released a slit is made in one of their ears, and a con .alderatien paid to the owner.. As the cunons crowded into the Cebada, the soldiers famed a circle round the seaffitld, and a man of large size, with a vest of brown velvet, and a slouched hat, came out front an adjacent cha pel. where he had been praying since the morning, and made his way through the assemble r multitude, who gave place before ben with exclamations of hotter, " Christaval ! stand aside." " foes, Ines, beware, will you? his cloak has touched you two times." Without minding their words, he snide his way to the scaffold, laid aside his cloak and hat, ascended the ladder midway, and composedly arranged the rope to the cross. tseam. While these prepatatioos were making, persons were .busy selling to the crowd, for a son (iil.) each, broadsides of the petitions which culprits repeat on the way to the scaffold, not for getting at the end, as enumeration of those indulgences which the Popes have promised to those who unite themselves in heart with the prayent of the condemned, and follow them to the place of punishment. As the procession approached, in the present instanee, the sound of a larg e bell was beard at a dis tance, and the beating of the drum before the troops called out to preserve order. Then came the cross of wood, borne before the prisoners, and the eninpany of penitents, with torches of green wax in their hands. The female came first, and was obliged to be supported upon the ass, answering meanwhile, with much earnestness, " Amen." and " Credo," to the priest who walked beside her. giving her his ghostly consolation in a loud voice, and presenting at every step a crucifix close to her countenance. She was dressed in the habit of the alms-house. A panic was made, for the last donfession, at the foot of the fatal ladder, where, concealed under the priest's robe, she lis tened to his consolations whilst her feet were securing. The confession over, the executioner grasped her under the arms, and lilting her towards him, made her thus mount the ladder. At each step she invocated some "Male or female saint, the priest who followed her suggesting the names, which she repeated with a loud voice. On coming to the height of the cross-beam they stopped; the prisoner on the last step but one, having her bend between the legs of the executioner, who was on the last seep. While he was passing the rope round her neck her head dress fell off and she regarded the crowd with a calm eye. Recommeneing the confession of her crime, and her pro negations of repentance, she beseeched the people aloud, " Pardon me, and pray for me;" and they answered, " Yes, yea, pardon and prayers for the repentant culprit." The priest began the credo, and as she repeated after him, he suddenly broke off from it, saying, " Depart to eternal glory." At this moment the executioner threw himself from the ladder, and dragged the priootter with his:. The weight of both fell upon the rope, and tamed round in the space between the two upright posts. The executioner remained for a moment upon the shoulders of the pri soner, while his assistants pulled her by the feet. He then leaped upon the ground. and all was over. I bare carried my description far enough. The other culprit waited close by. dressed in a sort of r: kite Surplice, with a grey cap on his head. Ile became of a horrible paleness when the bell began to sound the last moment of I;is mistress. and the attendant monk answered his confession with, k'ou shall shortly be with her." On the night of the same day, the members of the brotherhood who acecnnpar.y and assist con deemed persons. came in a procession to remove the corpses from the gallows. Placed in coffins, and billowed by a great number of torches, they were transported into a neighbouring chapel, there to wait, in the midst of prayers for the good of their souls, the time of burial. As for the man in the brown velvet waistcoat, after kneeling in the next chapel, he probably retired to treasure up the two gold pieces, which are his perquisite of office, congratulating himself upon having made a good day's work..—/theu re Pepagaoka, VOLCANO IN THE /!!MALAYA!! MOUNTAINS. There seems to be no doubt that a volcano has been discovered io the thinaliyan mountains. The following account of it in Dr. Brciorter's Joao Hal of Sciexce. newly published, has been cont. uniniested to him 0003 India : • I now send you an interesting account of the volcanic appear. en ze of the Purneah district, that you may have seen alluded to in the newspapers. The mountain is one of the highest In the whole range, and is visible occasionally from the eastern side Of the Sur. Lamps:ever, south of the Gartner Hills, and also, 1 believe, from Dbougilree, but too indistinctly to admit of our seeing the column 01 essoke observed eby Mr. Barnes. Several years ago, when eas t!' .ing this peak ham Deenhutta, with a pod telescope I observed a singular looking fissure in die side of it, so remarkable, that I I. ask a sketch of it at the time. I think it highly probable that this an extinguished crater ; and if the smoke actually process's from a ielleano. It may even be the otie in action, as it is on the east aide ache peak, and the peak might prevent this appearance being OM from the southward. • In Steady put of February, 1825, , , my brother and myself wee on cur return from the hill north of hungapannee. when, early In the morning, just as the sun rose above the horizon, I ,grimed a thick cloud, apparently smoke, rising perpendicularly froth the highest point of the mountain, which, after ascending to a considerable height, in a We* dense coliftnn, took an easterly direction from the upper part of it, as if it lied been carried away by the wind, detached pans of It being separated like small white clouds. The column of smoke continued to exhibit the same aspect as when it was first seen, and exactly resembled the smoke of a fierce fire, after ascending far above the Influence of the propelling power. At this time the atmosphere was beautifully clear for many etworseive days ; and the appearance above described con. t i nne d prec i se ly the same, only at times the column of smoke seemed to be larger and more dense titan at others, but always Rising straight up, as if rushing from a crater, and the top always diverslng in the air on reaching* certain height. " Flom having been long in the habit of observing the snowy mountains whenever they were visible, and accustomed to view rhsOn for many years put, I may say that I am perfectly fatniliar with their appeerance : and I was so forcibly struck with the diffe rent aspects they assumed onthe day above-mentioned, that I thought it possible that a volcano was in action, This ophion, and the desire which every man tumid feel to witness so grand and *Wiens a spectacle, has led me to observe it very closely ever since, whenever I could discern the puk ; and although no eruption of desp_e Leta been seen front this place, which is three miles due west of Rungapannee, yet the smoke has continued in the same form ' and the same direction as above stated. It was once carried wes'erly the wind, and only once that I remember; but at all other times I I U. head of it was wafted to the east. " The very same appearance contirued to present Itself until the warm weather began ; but the atmosphere was then so hazy as to lib.cure the moun.ain shopther during its continuance, nor have the rains, which are only just setting in, brought them yet within • • I am not in the habit of observing, and still lees of describing, the ph - moments of nature, and I fear you may not fully comprehend the unpression which I wish to convey; but if you blare to your self a yard column of smoke rushing violently from the flue cf a among furnace, black at the bottom, rAI burning clearer as it as. wads, end the wind dispersing the top of the shaft when it rises above the ialltit . .ce of the lire, you will lave its appearance in a tow words. " The peak on which this phenomenon is seen, is that remark. able rocky one due north of Rungatiannee. and the most elevated of the whole range seen front thence. But I am of opinion that. if it really be a volcano, the crater is situated on the north side of the bigliest point, because, when the smoke was seen, the peak on our U& was distinctly visible, and the smoke seemed to me behind .1. It is probable that some lower eminence, concealed from us by the highest point, may be the seat of it. •• It is hardly possible to believe that the appearane- now de scribed can arise from a cloud, as it is not usual for clor'a to retain the very same torn and shape for months together, nor to appear in the same identical spot. The summits of all the other peaks re mained clear and bright as usual, during the whole time that the smoke was observed." • The letter, of which this is an extract, is dated Thoon ke Pur neah, June 13, 1024. WESTMINS7'ER SESSIONS. These Seesions commented yesterday, before Francis Conet, Esq. and a full bench of Magistrates. DEPUTY CLERK OF THE PEACE.—The Che'rman on taking his seat, after speaking in the highest terms of the assi duous man. ner in which Mr. Allen; the Deputy Clerk of the Peace for the City and Liberties of Westminster, had performed the duties of his office during the many years he had held it, proceeded to state that the Court had determined on appointing him Deputy Clerk of the Peace for the County of Middlesex, in the more of Mr. Stirling, who retires, and that Mr. filthy was appointed to succeed Mr. Allen to the office rendered vacant by Ole advancement. In the case of an appeal between the parish of Chesham, and that of St. Martin, Westminster, The Cwatantanr. after looking at the order of removal, which on the face of it orofessed to be signed by two Magistrates in the commission of the peace for the city and liberty of %Westminster. said that he found it was signed `• Thomas Halls," and " Peter Mallets." lie should wish to know who Mr, Peter Milieu was; he found no such name in the lint of Magistrates. The Solicitor for St. Martin's said lie believed he was in the COILIMISMOR. CHAlRMAN—Certainly not for Westminster, for we have the re cord in Court, and there is no such name upon it. This gentlemen bhould know that he is in an awkward predicament, and is liable to a penalty of bOOl. Mr. A LLEN, who was retained for St. Martin's, said he under stood that Mr. Msllett was in the Commission for the county of Middlesex, and had probably signed the paper without being aware of its precise nature. Mr. ALLEN said' it was a very unlucky mitttake, and unfortu nately there were three or tour other gentlemen in a similar condi tion. He hoped gentlemen would talk the subject over among themselves. In a case in which he was some time back coneerned. his client was put to an expense of Mi. entire!) through a similar STEALING PUBLICANS' POTS. Mary Cruise stood indicted for stealing a pewter quart pot, the property of Mr. Taylor, he landlord of the Three Dotes, in Der. wick.street. The prisoner was apprehended with the property in her possession, which there was reason to believe shehad taken from off the railing on the outside of the house of some one of Alt. Taylor's customers; but there was no direct evidence to prove that point. The CHAIRMAN strongly reprobated the manner in which pro. pertv of this kind was continually exposed to tempt the needy, and advised the acquittal of the prisoner. The Jury acquitted her. CHAIRMAN (to the prisoner)—Don't let the mercy of the Jury have an ill effect on you. Don't repeat these practices. The Cot' IT ordered the prosecutor his expenses. In the enure of the day the (}rand Jury returned into Court several true bills for grand larceny, against Mary Harding, one of the dressers of Drury-lane Theatre, for embezzling a variety of trinkets, the property of diflitrent actors and actresses belonging to that theatre. POLICE. GUILDHALL. ..... 11. am Martin, the porter at Pocknell's shell-fish shop, in Fleet -street, was brought up for r ination, on suspicion of having stolen a silver snuff box, whttrgentlman hal left acci dentally in the refreshment rooms. The prisoner had been remanded, in order that the waiter might be examined as to whether he had mentioned to him that a snuff box had been applied for ; and yesterday Edward Brice, a lad, the waiter alluded to, appeared, and was questioned upon the above point. He stated that two gentlemen supped in the roams on the night of the 21st instant, but they did not apply about the box until next morning, and then they seemed to be so much in doubt whether they had left it there or elsewhere, that he answered that it had not been found, without asking any person about the pre mists a qgeation. The prisoner certainly was not aware that any claimant For the box had appeared. In consequence of the police report in the Newspapers, a friend of the gentleman who lost the box had called, and promised that the owner would be in attend ance at the office this morning. No claimant however appeared, and the pawnbroker was directed to retain the box for the present. 31r. Alderman GABRATT discharged the prisoner, with an im pressive admonition, observing that it would be a lasting blemish in his character as an honest man, for honesty obviously dictated that every one should use his best endeavours to trace the owner of any article he ahouhl find. Thomas Worlidge, a compositor on the Morning Mr:rater newspaper, was charged with an assault, which bad nearly proved a very serious one, upon a fellow-workman, in consequence of a dispute that arose in the course of business. George Steele, the complainant, stated, that in consequence of some trifling mistake high words were exchanged between himself , and the defendant, but the quarrel had not continued five minutes, when Worlidge ran across the room to the part where be was at work, and struck him three or four blows. lie then commenced tearing the skin off his face, from just under the eye downwards,' with his nails, and upon witness seizing hie hands, he actually bit a piece out a his tore finger. 1V iiness then forced him into the middle of the room, and, after some few blows had been given on each side s Worlidge fell. On getting on his feet again, the latter seized a formidable weapon, made of brass (though technically called a foot-sfiek, from having in former times been made of wood) and rushed towards him in a most I furious manner. The other persons in the room, however, in terfered, and prevented him from doing the serious mischief he appeared to contemplate. Two compositors corroborated this statement. The defendant said it was his duty to collect and arrange the ad vertisements as they appeared in the newspaper, and having disco vered that the complainant had taken possession of an advertise ment, for the purpose of immediately separating the letters, and replacing each character in its respective compartment of the case, although it was ordered to appear in the following day's; paper, he complained of this piece of carelessness. In reply, Steele,who from his education is capable of uttering the most biting expressions, so taunted him that he could not forbeas trying to pull his nose, and that was the way he came to scratch his face. With• respect to the foot-stick, he took that in self defence, when he found Steele, who was scarcely halt his age, was too strong for him. 31r. Alderman OARRATT arid it was a most fortunate circum stance that some persons had interfered, or otherwise the defendant would most probably have had to answer to a very serious charge. If every one gave way to their gusts of passion in the manner Worlidge had done, the state of society would become frightful. No wards, however irritating. justified a breach of the peace, and the way in which the defendant gave vent to his fury was unmanly. Aa, however, be and the complainant lisd long been and alight long be companions, he would recommend a reconciliation. Steele replied that his hostile feelings had quite subsided, and he should be satisfied with an apology. published in their own newspaper, or a subscription of H. Is. to the Licensed Victuallers' School. Warbilge tlinught the first condition tno degrading (in which opinion the Alderman concurred), and pleaded inability, from otUy inisiortunes, to comply with the second, and he was ultimately ordered to find bail. BOW-STREET. On Wednesday evening Mr. Arnold, the proprietor of the Eng lish Opera House and a Magistrate for Middlesex, preferred the following charge against a man, named Metcalfe, a street-keeper for the Piazzas, and constable of Covent-garden Theatre : Mr. Arnold stated, that as he was walking through the Piazzas that evening, he beard the sound of a heavy blow, and, turning round, saw a girl of about eleven years of age, and a cripple, pro*. trate on the ground, and the defendant standing over her with a thick stick raised in his hand. The girl was screaming as if with pain, and the witness thought the act so brutal and so unwarrant able in an officer, that he went up to Metcalfe and remonstrated, observing, that whatever might have teen the conduct of the girl he could have no right to treat her as he had done. Metcalfe, in a tough tote, replied that the girl was a young strumpet, and a pest to the neighbourhood, and he should do his duty as he liked, with out being dictated to by any body. The witness told him that, if the girl had committed any offence, if she was the character he de scribed, it was his duty to take her before the Magistrates—nothing could justify the exercise of such brutality to such an object. Met calt• became very insolent, and said " Who are you, I should like to know ?', Witness told him lie was a Magistrate, and de sired that he would accompany him to How -street, a nd ac count fur his conduct. On the way a crowd gathered about them, and the defendant endeavoured by Ms language to excite a strong feeling amongst the people against him (Mr. Arnold.) The girl, who seemed terribly afraid of the defendant, slipped away as they were coming to the office. . _ In detence, Bittenlle said that the girl spoken of was one of a Fang of young prostitutes, whose conduct and language were such that the inhabitants of the neighbourhood were most shockingly annoyed. Ile denied striking the girl. Mr. A aw oL in declared that the defendant admitted having struck the girl. Sir It. Brix IF: and Mr. Illistswin.r. both said that if the girl was what the defendant described, it was ins duty to have brought her before them. Metcalfe said that if he were to bring every girl who behaved ill all day long before their Worships, he should have nothing else to do, and the Magistrates would be pestered to death. After some convocation Sir R. BIIINIE said he was of opinion that Metcalfe had been guilty of a violation of his duty of a gross des.-ription, and the 3lag . strattc, he thought, would not be doing their duty if they were not to mark the cr.se in such a manner as to hold tout a warning to other officers. If they acted otherwise they might fairly be accused of delegating poser to men who had been found to be capable of abusing it. Ile Iva% of opinion that the de. fendant ought to be suspended from his office. M t. 311 s au LILL was of the same opinion, and he was suspended accordingly. MA RY LEDO N Yesterday Hourrd, a constable of Marylebone Irish,, was brought to this office, charged by William Gratin, of Portman. THE BR . , H PRESS. green, Edgeware.road, with having impudently obtruded himself into his house during his absence, under the following dreum stances James Oaskin, a youth about fourteen, son to the complainant, stated, that on Tuesday last lie eon left at home, with his three little sister., to mind tne house. Prior to his father leaving home he gave biro strict orders not to admit any body during' hits ab sence. He sad not bee:: long away, when the defendant, accompa nied by a fat man, came to the house, and demanded admit tance. 11'itness told them of the instructions he had received from his father, and said that be could not let them in, when one of them exclaimed, " if we can't get in by fair means, we must by foul: : ' on which they placed a board on the railings, forced open the window, and entered the place. The lusty gentleman had a bit of board in his hand, with which he struck one of his sisters, and abused witness very much, saying that he would costae to the gallows. His sisten were frightened, and they threatened to take him to the watch-house if lie dad not keep them quiet. They looked all about the place, and in about ten minutes his fa ther and mother returned home, and they refused to let them enter their own house. _ . Mr. GRIFFITH asked the del - Ludo% to account for such extra ordinary coattuct ? Howard said that Mr. Greenwood, the complainant's landlord, had employed Mr. Smith, • broker. to distraiii upon his goods for rent, Mr. Smith, knowing him to be an officer, requested him to accotnpany him to prevent a breach of the peace, as he expected to meet with ttouhlesoine cost =era. He accordingly went with him. Mr. GairriTn (with warmth}-11 Mr Smith had contenteu himself with taking you there to prevent a breach of the peace, he would not be to blame, but the latter part of the transaction was unjoqiiiable. Howard said, that on their arrival the boy refused to let them in, although they told him their business. On entering the pluce moat of the things were gone; the neighbours saw them re moving the goods the night before. Mr. GRIFFITH asked the boy if the door and window were fastened ? Boy—The door was locked, and the window bolted, when it was forced open. r. fIatFFITIt told the defendant that he had no right to enter the house at all, or to act u he had done; it was not part of his duty as au officer. Howard -I deny that Mr. Smith struck the child, as represented. Mr. GRIFFITH-0u can scarcely imagine it to be possible for a man to strike an infant. But this I believe, that you area peace officer, and you thick it is pan of your duty to break open a man's house. . Howard-1 did not; 1 merely went there to keep the peace and whist Mr. Smith. _ _ ;11r. tlatretrtt—You had no right. Sir, to assist as you have done. A peace officer is not authorised to go with a broker to break open another man's house. and I find that I must convince you that yon have not done your duty as a peace officer. You have done wrung, and I shall order you to find bail to answer the complaint at the Sesvions. . _ flo;ard—l hope ml own recognizance will be sufficient ? Mr. Gum rir—No, I will not take your own bail. I will convince peace officers that they are not to go with impunity and break open people's houses; they are not justified, and I wish it to be publicly understood and known. I see nothing of the broksr. Ilucketidge said he would attend on Saturday, and Mr. Griffiths ordered that Mr. Greenwood, the landlord, should also be in at tendance. Howard procured bail and was discharged. John Upton was charged by Mrs. Ptesse, of Paddington, with creating a disturbance at her house. The defendant had married her daughter, but in consequence of his ill usage witness had taken her under her own protection, and the grimmer was frequently coming to the house after her, although he was forbidden doing so, with the full consent of her daughter, who was actually afraid of him. Mr. GRIFFITH—IIan he Aircstened your life P—Yes, some time ago he threatened to stick a knife in me. The prisoner denied it, and said that his wife was encouraged by her mother to leave him. They had taken his furniture, and he was refused by Mrs. P. an interview with his wife and children. On Saturday ha sent a friend to his mother•in-law's house to make proposals to be with his wife. She consented then, but when he (the prisoner) called at the house the dour was banged in his face. Mr. GRIFFITH dismissed the case, advising an amicable ar rangement between them. IVORSHIP-STREET. Yesterday the young 'man, fri/Litison, who was remanded on Tuesday last, on a charge of robbing Isaac Smith, the owner and proprietor of a Staffordshire barge, was brought before the sitting Magistrate for re-examination. The prosecutor swore positively at the first examination, that when he was attacked and knocked down by the gang in Benhow's rents, on Monday night, the prisoner deliberately despoiled him of his silk handkerchief, his hat, containing also another handker. chier, his smock-frock, and money to an amount exceeding twenty pounds. A watchman also deposed that he accompanied the prosecutor to the house into which the thieves had retreated with their spoil, and they there found the prisoner, whom Smith instantly recognised as the person that robbed him. When the prisoner was placed at the bar yesterday, the Magis trate was informed that the prosecutor was nowhere to be found. • Mr. BENETT detained the prisoner until the close of the office business, when the prosecutor not having appeared, he was dis charged out of custody. Several persons who had been apprehended on suspicion of hav ing robbed the house of Mr. /was, Artillery-plate, Si- bikes, were brought up for re-examination, but in this case also dao pew ectuor neglected to appear. The prisoners were remanded for another examination. THE EQUITABLE TEA AGENCY COMPANY. It was expected that Mr. Goundry, the Managing Director of the Equitable Tea Agency Company, would haveattended yesterday at the Mansion-house, to answer the charge brought against /um of having obtained a sum of money under false pretences, from Mr. Bell, of Huddersfield. Mr. Bell and Mr. Torrisnu, his solicitor, were in attendance during the greater part of the day, but no Ma naging Director appeared. Mr. CHRISTIE, and two other members of the Society of Friends, attended, anti stated on behalf of the Society, that Mr. (laundry, although he dressed and wrote in the manner of " the Friends," was no longer a member, having been read out after it had been ascertained that same fraudulent circumstances attended his bankruptcy in the year 1814. Mr. Christie added, that he had made inquiries relative to the .complaint against Mr. Goun dry, and had learned that he was the sole Manager and Director of that concern, and that the Company was a gross deception. The LORI) MAYOR hnd evey reason w believe the thing was got up for the purposes of fraud. Mr. Tonnutwo said he had received a letter from Mr. Goun dry's solicitor, stating that Mr, Beil was considerabiy. in debt to the Company—Mat all attempts to compel Mr. (laundry to pay the money demanded should be resisted ; but that he was not disin clined to enter into an amicable accommodation. The idea of ac. commodation was, Mr. Torriaito saki, quite ridiculous. It was palpable that ,lr. (foundry was the Rule actor in the humbug. He then read a letter showing that be had carried on the humbug like a man of businets. The Lotto :UAYOR said he was determined that Mr. Goundry should appear before him ; and an officer was immediately despatch ed to Mr. Goundry's enunting-house ; but, upon his return, said he could find no Mr. Goundry, nor any b ody else, except a poor porter. The counting-house appeared in a deplorable state, and there was no symptom of business. The Lon D 3IAYOR sent for the porter, and asked him several questiocus about the Mar3ging Director and the Company. 'rho account given corresponded with that which many a Shareholder in other Companies has received upon making inquiry Irmo the parti culars of the concern, in whirl) he had embarked his properly. There were no directors, no clerks, no bankers, no warehouse, ex cept the East India 'loose. Mr. Goundry was all in all. The LORD NAYOR—What business have you seen done ?—1 have seen a chest of let taken from the E:ist India Warehouse, and Mr. Goundry gave directions about It ; but be never tells me nothing. Do you know anything about those? (showing him some of the shares produced the day before)—Yes ; there was 5041 or 1000 of them printed off. How happens it that some of them in my hand are numbered 10000 and upwards ?- , That I can't tell. . Mr. II ostEtt—The Managing Director began, most probably, with a 1101 number, to make the shares pas., off well, as watch. makers are in the habit of numbering their tint attempts, by mil. tiplying every one by 1000. (Laughter.) Some fashionable gen. tlemen number their shirts upoh the same principle. (A laugh.) Porter—l don't know nothing about that ; but lam sure that the printer never got no payment fur what lie printed. The Loan MAYOR—Au nobody been at the counting.house to inquire about things of this kind ? (pointing to the ►hares) — Porter—Nobody. The Loan MAYOR said It would appear as if the scheme had been adopted merely for the purpose of taking in a few inexpe rienced individuals. It was a palpable (mud ; and if :Ur. Doundry should continue to disregard a secoud Emmons, a variant should certainly be sent after him. STEAM NAVIGATION.—No part of the kingdom has derived more benefit from the introduction of steam packets than the counties of Monmouth and Glamorgan. Since these vessels have plied regularly between Bristol and Newport, the roads have been greatly improved, and com munications opened to all parts of the mining districts. Coaches now travel daily where, scarcely five years ago, not a single conveyan ce for passengers was to be seen, and where the appearance of a " S.Assenach" was hailed with wonder. A vast increase in the buildings of the several towns has also been the consequence of this facile mode of communication. A steam packet, of 2a-Lome power, is ta ply from Bristol, between Ilfracombe, Bideford, and Barnstaple, and to com mence next month. The hills surrounding this town were covered with Snow yesterday morning.
