Mr. 11ART presented a pe t ition,grou ----- nded on the following facts: The petitioner had been a practising attorney, and was applied to In thearay of his profession by a Mrs. Berry, who had been arrested, to avast in her liberation by means of bail ; Asyill, a publimn, and Wheatley, a lace. manufacturer, were in consequence prevailed on to become bail for her; Mrs. )Beery was brought to town in due time to discharge her hail. About the same time application was made to the Court of King's Bench for a rule. remiiring Mr. Smith to show cause why he should not be struck off the rolls, for having surreptitiously caused the onto': of W heady, a lace-manufacturer, to be affixed to the bonis of the bail. This application was sup ported by the affidavit of %V Mad', in which he alleged that he was clerk to Smith, and that he was absent front the office by the dia. lance of ten mites on the day on s•hich the affidavit was signed and sworn in his name, and that he never signed or swore to the affida vit. Smith stated in Ammer, that Wheatly was positively a lace. manufacturer ; that he was not a clerk to Smith ; that he could not even write; that when he was out of employment in his occupation of operative lace-manufacturer, he was occasioaally employed by him (Smith) to serve writs anti go on legal errands and, finally, It was alleged, on the authority of affidavits by several witnesses, that Wheatly did actually sign the bail bonds. Mr. Simpson, also, be. fire whom the bail bends hail been sworn, alleged in his second afFi. davit, that, on more accurate recollection. he was convinced I Wheatly swore to the bonds. On this confliction of statements, it I was referred to the Master of the King's Bench to inquire whether Wheatly had been clerk to Mr. Smith or not. The Allister made his inquiry, and reported to the Court his opinion that %neatly I had been clerk to Mr. Smith. and Mr. Smith wss of course struck of the roll. Now he (Mr. )tart) held in his hands numerous &fil -1 davits to prove that Wheatly never had been clerk to ;‘lr. Smith, and, among others, the affidavit of a M r. Row, who was clerk to Mr. Smith ; he had also the allegations of many, proving that %I - heady was a lace-manufacturer ; that he worked as such ; that he eirried no business in diat trade ; that he p,ssessed three looms, at which he was seen working . • that he boasted of his dexterity in making lace; that he institut ed actions at law for imputations made Against • him as a lace-manufActurer ; and, that having become bankrupt, he was printed before the Commissioner to have been positively an operative maker of lace. On these affidavits the IJ;anied Gentle. man trusted that the Court. seeing that Ins client would be restored to that profession from which he had been thrust out in cooscqueme of such gnus mis-stAtenterd, would pay more prompt attention to the subject on being informed that the exclusion of 31r.

Sarah Wharmby wa. indicted for stealing. at Petersham, on the 21st of February, a quilt, value 201., a sour, value L. and other articles, the property of Charles Bayley, EMI. hi his dwelling house. Mir. Tursstat.a opened the case for the prosecution. It appeared in evidence that Mr. Bayley, ti.e prosecutor, was in India ; that his wife, Mrs. Bayley, took a house at Peter sham, last year .r her health, where she died in the latter end of last month ; that the prisoner was her nurse, of whoat the deceased always spoke in terms of the highest praise. After the death of Mrs. B a yley, inquire was filmic of the prisoner if she knew any thing of an Indian silk quilt that was miming, as the relatives of the deceased meant to be liberal to her servants, but wish:ll, in the first instance, to be in possession of all her apparel. The prisoner, however, stoutly denied all knowledge of the quilt, and subsequently said, that it had been tent by her mis tress in a parcel by the carrier, as a present to a particulor friend. It was further proved that the prisoner, in a conversation with one of the other servants, stated that she believed it was thought she had purloined the quilt. This conversation took place in the prisoner's bedroom, underneath whose bed a bundle was discovered by that servant, who being terrified at seeing something unusual there, asked her what it wax? to which she replied, that it was her bundle, and that she had placed It there. It was further proved in esidence that the prianner„ for or fire days after the de cease of Mrs. Bayley, had sent the bundle in question to a lodging which she had hired at Richmond, to be taken care of, where the constable afterwards found it. The Rev. V. U. Bayley, Sub-Dean of Lincoln, brother of the prosecutor, hari.-; caused the prisoner to be examined respecting these circumstance'', and she still pereevering in her denial of all knowledge of them, had her apprehended ; and upon her being informed that a bundle, in which the quilt and scarf in qu.stioa, with other artieleo, had been discovered at her lodging at Itielimonil, then stated that they had beta given to her by the deceased. The quilt was a very curious and rare article of Indian workmanship, and the scarf wag eachemere. The prisoner, in her defence, again stated that the property in question had been given to her by the deceased, with strict injunc tions to her tint to disclose that Cet. Mrs. Jones Burdett (anti other witnesses of the highest respect ability) spoke to the character of the prisoner, of whom she had been in the eorstant habit of hearing Airs. Bayley speak in terms of the warmest aCection and regard, and saying % that she never could repay her for the assiduity and attention with which she had watched over her 'luring ant illness of sixteen months' duration, of the most distressing nature. The medical geademan who had attended Mrs. Bayley during her ilium corroborated these facts, aml farther stated, as did Mrs. Jones Burdett, that the deceased was a lady of very generous habits. _ _ Mr, Justice REST summed up the evidence at great length, and particularly dwelt upon the improbability, that articles of such a nature and rarity as those, fee the stealing of which the prisoner was indicted, should have been given to her by the deceased ; and also called the attention of the Jury to the contradictory statements of the prisoner upon her being applied to for an account of the articles in question. The character which the prisoner bad re ceived was in every respect creditable to her, but in this instance I could avail her nothing, unless the Jury amid entertain any , doubt of her guilt, which he could not suggest. The Jury immediately found the prisoner (:mitt ; whereupon the Sub-Dean of Lincoln begged to reconituend her to mercy, to which the beamed Judge saki lie should attend. In the mean time sentence of death was recorded. This case excited very general intermit Mr. Andrews appeared for the prisoner. There was nothing of general interest on the civil side to-day.

The complainant stated, that on Friday last he saw the assistant driving a nundrer of sheep through Coek-lane, end be observed two dogs :tinning and yelping to and fro upon their backs. Presently they singled out ore of the Reck, who immediately dashed forward with the dogs hanging aboot hint ; and eventually, after severely lacerating the poor animal's head, they pinned him down in the kennel. The drover's man then ran up, And compelledthe sheep te rise by giving it a violent kick: it went a few yards and again HI, end the fellow was about to repeat liis violence, when he lltanks) called out to him, and took his number. Two gentlemen from Norfolk who had witnessed the defendant's conduct, said they would appear against him, and had given their addresses, but they were not Low present. Notwithstanding the seriousness of this charge, there was a sort of look of archness and merriment upon the defendant'scountettance while it was king detailed, that seemed to betoken a confidence that his manner of telling the story would bring him safely off out of the scrape; and when called upon for his defence, he said be knew Mr. Martin very well, and all about his Act too, which he had always been careful in oonforming to: so far fiont using any cruelty towards the animal in this instance, he had exerted himself to pre vent it, and had run up for the express purpose of beating the dogs off, and wan in the very act of doing it, when the constable inter. freed, as his master, who was with him at the time, could testify. lie only wished. he said, that Mr. Martin himself was here, as he was quite sure he would give him an excellent character for his humanity as a drover.

When these were missed, information was given to ktuthven, who apprehended the prisoner. and he c onf e ssed that be had pledged, and afterwards sold the bus, at Messrs. Maywood and 'Lawrence's, pawnbrokers; in Drury lane. The courier was of course compelled to proceed abroad ; but Lord Lauderdale's footman was in atteadanee, and swore that the box was the property of his Lordship. The priaoner, during the examination, was observed several times to turn his head aside, and weep With consiticraUe bitter ness. in his defence, he said that he was sent for the bag, which contained efiithey guineas, as well :14 the it and razors; that he poi it into his pocket, and delivered it, as he thought, in the sane state in which he received it, to his hiend the courier, bat that he afterwards found those articles in his packet, and they must have slipped from the bag. Ilia poverty induced him to dispose of the box. He asked if it was likely that lie should not have taken the whole contents of the bag rather titan the box merely, if he had originally intended to stall ?

In had rues. the causes are eillier cold or violence, acting upon the nerve of a carious tooth ; yet a pain similar to this frequently arises from a foeuniatie affection if the jaw itself; and in pregnancy it is a sympathetic election. When a small spot appears upon the tooth, u it were eating it away, the person an affected should most particularly attend to the use of the tooth-brush. in order to remove as frequently as pos sible the carious pardons of it. When Oils spot extends, and penetrates into the substance of the tooth, the air seed various acrid bodies pet into it, and irritate the nerve ; aml when this takes place, it is tontd to introduce a bit of iint dipped in either oil of cloves, nutmeg, or eajeput, or diluted sulphuric acid ; hut these mmtdies in same mon do no good, and generally only militate. Mr. l'hompson Goys, that " a pall of cautpher and opium, or a solution of camnlitir in oil of turpentine, put into the hollow of a carious tooth, affords almost immediate relief In toorittacbc." We must confess dim we see no remedy so good as the extraction of the tooth. prevent a return of the disease, the hole should be widened by a dentist, and stopped up with leaf gold, or leaf lead, and thus the tooth nay he preserved •a long • without aching, but strict attention must be paid to the daily use of the tooth brush.

Dreams. as all the world knowst, are only phantoms of the brain ; and it it likely they will be rendered more phasing by sleeping on air beds. An ingenious mechanic, of Somerset%litre, not long ago, obtained a patent for stuffing a bed with air instead of feathers ; and the following is the description of this new mode of obtaining light sleep :—" The inveation coexists in rendering the case of the tail, pillow, &c. impervious to air, and tilling it by means of an air-pump (we presume a condensir.g syringe is here meant) with enntnion amiotplierie air, instead of down or feathers. The air is intniduced through an aperture or tube into the ease, and prevented from returning by tract of an air-tight stop-cock or vt.lve. The case may be rendereu impervious to air by regions methods ; btu 'that recommer.ded by the patentee, it a cotrposition of 'tna rub- bur, spirits of turpentine, nael linseed oil, winch, when dry, is ex tremely pliable, and it, elastic, that if the cloth be folded in sharp 'corners, tt will not crack or peel off. " The advantages of this method of consttuction for beds and pillows, arc their superior degree of elasticity, 'Minding the mod refreshing and easy repose, either in elis or even in the warmest climates ; that they may, when required, be changed from the greatest dey to rifts:Areas to the hardness of a mattress, by moving the handle of the nir-pump, which is placed coninsodiously within reach ; or mny be rendered soft to any required degree, by the ex hausting pump, 1....40 within reach. " In addition to these convenierscet, they may at any time he rendered perfectly fresh and cool, by merely changing the air, by the alternate use of the air pumps ; this may be effected in a few minutes, without the person sir ning on the beds being moved ; hence their great advantage to invalids, and their generally refresh ing and salubtiout effects. " Such machinery may at first sight appear too philosophical for CO.IIIIIIII use, and too ettnthrotot for a sleeping anartnn.iit : hut as to tlte first point, only a very small portion of ingenuity it required to heconie conversant with their application ; and at to the scromi, it is merely necessary to pay, that the air pumps, together with all I tne nachinery for filling end exhausting the tacit, being inclosed 1 tinder the bedsteads, and cnnituttnicating with cords and tassels (re- ',emitting Is 11-pulls) suspended immediately above the pillows, eery alteration in the state or temperature of the becis is thus effected at ;toy time required. " The fact is, that they save much manual latour. as they re. quirt: no making tip ; for by their elasticity titc7 rise immediately when left, and are then in the state of other bats after being shaken arid mcdc up, the counterpane, &c. being returned as wind r hence they occasion no dust or film in the reoms, °ruin the furniture, which is always the case where feather or do*n beds are used. " For medical parr:nes also they may be filled with air at any required teatipemture ; or with water, steam, Of other fluids, wet or dry, elastic or non.clastie, to which the case it equally imperme able. In addition to which, they have several other advantages. '!Tray are not subject to be sloping on one side, nor to those hard clumps or knots, which feathers or down gradually acquire in the course of a few yearn. " They are likewise extremely light, the largest weighing only a few ounces, and portable alto. being easily folded or roiled, after being previously enhausted."—The Chemist. SI'ORTING INTELLIGENCR.

Fox ewe:stn.-0o Friday morning last a scene, unprece dented in the annals of fox hunting. presented itself at Chadionite Wood (belonging to Earl Poulett). near Chard. It having been ' previously announced that .Me. Fartptharsoa's celebrated fox hounds intended drawing Chaffeambe Covert, at half-past ten o'clock, a concourse of persons assembled, mounted and dismount ed, to the number of between ten and eleven hundred., for the pu:. pose of enjoying the treat thus affiwded them. To distinguish even the lading characters of this sporting group would be impossible; suffice it to say, that it bore the appearance as If all tl:e lox hunters and brrakoerk riders in the four western counties had congregated at this spot. Amidst all this gaiety and confusion, just as the hounds were on the point of being thrown into the covert, the greatest consternation prevailed from loud shrieks and a general cry of " Where's a Doctor ? Where's a Doctor ?" A gendarme was kilted in jumping iujodhioutie over a fence. Tt having, how ever, been ascertained that the accident was not likely to prove fa tal, the alarm soon subsided, std the work of the day commenced without further interruption. Den's soft and melodious tones, ac companied by Solottion's shrill aod bewitching notes, and Robert's overpowering smack of the whip, made the woods most enchant ingly echo, so as to till every heart with every, till at length Rey. nerd broke covert, and the scene that ensued is past all description. In passing the Crcwkerne turnpike mad, the rush was truly awful and teeride ; a truss of between three and fuer hundred horsemen extended for more than a quarter of a mile at full speed, literally threatening destruction to all who impeded them in their heedless career, and most fortunate was it that at this rsirfeal period the rued was clear of travellers. The crowd of pedestrians, men. women, and children, was so great, that poor Repaid became mobbed, and fell a victim to the devouring enemy, amidst the them and waving of bandkerehiefi of countless numbers of the fair sex, who formed a pyramid of loveliness on the round of the %Car rell. Many distinguished iedividush then adjourned to Hinton (louse, where they experienced the gravest hospitality and kindness from the Noble Earl Poulett and his amiable Countess, end the evening was spent in the utmost moviviality.—.Teaudors Courier.

CORONER'S INgURST. MELANCHOLY CASE. Theraday afternoon an inquisition wee taken before J. W.l_' x. wise, Esq. (:owner, at the Five Bells, Old Ford, on view of the body of Patrick Solomon. Thomas Err.ett swore.—Witness works at the eitriel manufec. , tory of Mr. Smith, at Old Ford. On Tuesday morning, about b elf-past eleven o'clock, he found the deceased lying the neon his lace, near the bailer where he had been at work. Ili, business was to stir the gas liquid with a broom, in the process of making vitriol. IVitnems picked him up, and called to the workmen for aesietance, mid then a surgeon was sent for. Witness never knew any thing of the kind occur heore. Deceased was about thirteen years of sge, and had worked on the pretuisea only font days: the work that he was employed at was always performed by boys, who were so engaged tenni morning till night ; and ; during the two years which he has worked in tl:e factory he never knew any per son to be unwell from the eflicts of the steam ; he thinks he had seen the deceased about a minute berme, in good health Henry I'meent tiorn:an sworn.—Witness is a surgeon, residing at Bow. Ile rem (teemed about half-past twelve o'clock on the morning alluded to; he was in the air, near the manufactory, and appeared to be quite: dead. Mr. Fairliead had seen him about an hour before, and their joint opinion was, that he lied met his deathb y inhaling sulphuric hydrogen gas. The steamer ut the top of which the deceased hied been anring wan an open vessel. Witness exa mined the fluid it contained, and thinks, upon the whole, the manufactory in nut dangerous, but some caution ought to be given. It is always dangerous if the gas escapes in a condensed form through a small aperture, and Ls thus inhaled. This is part of the process Be the making of vitriolic acid. John Cleary, a boy, twelve years of age, stated lie was within two yards of deceased at the date, at another copper. The steam of the salts grit down his throat; he got otT the steamer and then , stood and s:arcd at him; witness spoke to him, but he never answered ; witness then turned round and mimed him, and jumped off his ladder, and found him lying on his face near the spot where he had been standing just before. Mr. Smith told witness to keep out of the way of the steam, and that it was best to keep the head sloped; he cannot my that Mr. Smith thus cautioned the de ceased. Mr. James Fairfiesd, swom—He is a surgeon, at Bow—Mr. :Hills one or the assistants in the factory, int:veined him that the, deceat;rd had met with an accident in inhaling the gas, and ca. a hope that he would he recovered by thetime they got pressed . On attiring on the premises. be was informed by some of the men that the deceased had 'teen dead about half an hour. The Coroner and shay, after censuring in very strong terms the practice of allowing persons to v:ork at such dangerous employ. meat without giving them the necessary instructions, which would probably be a means of guarding against accidents which might otherwise occur, and utter making some further moments, agreed to a verdict of—" Accidental Math," being recorded, " originat. ing from the deceased hating inhaled sulphuric hydrogen gas."
