Mr. O'Cowx et.l.—l rise to submit a liesolmion, which I deem of paramount importance. 1 am aware that it is nut of the usual routine to press it now upon consideration, but I think I will have the sense of the Meeting with me, that forms should give way Cu it. The newspapers, as every gentleman is apprised, have an mouneed that a Protestant Petition, favourable to Emancipation, is in progress. ( Hear, hear, hear.) It is so delightful to contemplate rush an example of Protestant liberality—it is so welcome and so iplessiog a duty on the part of the Catholics, to acknowledge grad lute for such an instance of kindness and generosity, that I em fun, no gentleman who hears me, will desire to postpone an ex "maim of the feelings which it shakers in OAT minds, in deference to any standing order that it nay be desirable to observe on other end less remit g occasions. (Cries of hear, hear—go an, go on.) 1 shall, with the permission of the Chairman, read a Resoluticn, which I have hastily drawn up, and which I shall now propose for <he adoption of the Meeting, as I perceive 1 ant so cordially se conded by the voice of all around inc. "Resolved—That we have heard, with the most sincere and lively rratittide, that it is intended by several respected and valued No blemen, Bankers, eminent Merchants, and Professional and trended Gentlemen, of the Protestant persuasion, to petition Par. lament for a favourable consideration of our claims—ln this pa triotic act we recognise a continuance of that liberality with which the Irish Protestant Parliament, in the reign of our late most re vered Sovereign, Geroge 111., broke down the civil barrier of the Penal Code, and afterwards conceded many important rights to their Catholic brethren. We do most solemnly assure our esteemed Protestant fellow-countrymen, that we appreciate this proof of their kindeteis towards us, at a value incomparably greater than that which any actual advantage could acquire—and that we desire, even beyond Emancipatien itself, to cultivate their esteem, and concili ate their affections. %i'e are anxious for a participation in the blessings of the Constitution ; first and principally, that we may be enabled, by reconciling all classes of his Majesty's loyal subjects, and by giving to all equal interests in the preservation of the State, add to the security of the Throne, and increase the strength and stability of the Constitution." After the cheers elicited by this Resolution had subsided, and al. lowed the Learned Gentleman to be heard, he proceeded to repeat, that It was delightful to express gratitude for such marks of Pro testant generality, is the Petition referred to exhibited. " I have." said he, Mr. Chairman, looked at several of the signatures at tsched to that document, and I find amongst them some of the first names in this land. (He .r, hear.) There are the signatures of Noblemen, Commoners, Bankers, Professional Gentlemen of the highest character—persons of my own profession, of elevated rank send character—for instance, Ale Sergeant Goold, a gentleman holding an important office under the Crown, and who possesses the most brilliant talents, and the most incorruptible public virtue." (Loud cheers.) el r. Co v.•AY remarked, that, amongst other Starnes, was that of Sir Francis Lynch Blosse, who had lately takcu orders in the Es tablished Church. (Hear, hear.) Mr. O'Coteeeete—There are, in short, seventy or eighty names of Noblemen and Gentlemen, who would be the legislators of this .country—who woukl be the givers of emancipation, if it were not for that baleful and suicidal Act, the Union, which deprived us of a Patliainent, and has made us beggars for our rights at the feet of the law-givers of another people.—(Loud cries of Rear, hear !)—We do hail this proof of the generosity of our Peotestant fellow-subjects with delight. It is the liberality that is evinced in this Petition, that makes Emancipation worth look. ref for, and worth possessing. It is this that presents a pros. pet cf•strength to the Crown. and tranquillity to the people...— Jew it is not a novel or isolated evidence of the kindly feelings that exist in the Protestant breast. It should never be forgotten that in the reign of George lit., the Catholics struck to the earth—frowning under the most cruel bondage that erer agonized a Chtisuan people—were first relieved by their Protestant fellow amatryrnen.—(Cheersa—lt should never be forgot, that it was a Protemane and an Irish Parliament, that granted the concession of 1778. It should never be forgot that it was a Protestant, and an Irish Parliament, that made the advances in 1782. It should never be forgot that it was a Protestant, and an Irish Parliament, that panted the franchises of 1793—and we would be unworthy of the favours which we have re:eived, if w • had not a full and per. Ow consciousness that if we still had a Parliament, the men who have come forward on the present occasion—and men like them +mild be the free and voluntary sathOrS of our emancipation. (Cheers for several seconds.) The Learned Gentleman, in car. elusion, stated that the sense of the meeting seemed so decidedly favourable to his purpose, and harmonised so entirely with his own leeling of what was due to the Protestants who signed this Petition, and to ;.e liberal and enlightened Protestants in general, that he wuttld think it improper to trespass any longer on their time ; and he would therefore first move, that the standing order be sue peeded ; and next, that the Resolution he read be adopted, as declaratory of the feelings and opinions of the Catholic Association. The question was then put upon these propositions, and they wen carried with the loudest acclamations. Mr. O'Coxwee a. moved, and it was carried, that the Resolu. :Lem be published in the usual Irish and English newspapers. LUPTCROIIS OCCURRENCE.—A young gentleman, last week, applied to his friend for the best mink of giving a darker shade to his hair ; the young pupil had been pre viously pointing out the particulars of a lecture lie had heard, and which was upon the nature of the hair. A solution of nitrate of silver, he said, he had no doubt would have the desired effect. Now whether lie designed this advice for a trick, or whether the prescription was the effect of ignorance, we cannot say. The solution was, be :aid, to be used in considerable quantity ; in short, he was to wash the wiide bred in this fluid. Accordingly the young gentleman applied it on going to bed, and put on his night-cap comfortably—only a little wet. On washing his Lead with the solution, the fluid naturally wet the greater part of his face, snd whatever part of the skin it touched it " left its snarl." The next morning the patient was Bat seen by his btother, who, hclieving him suffering under suffocation, or loins terrible dream, alarmed the whole house. The alarm, however, soon subsided in all except the mortifled patient, whose face was the colour of an old shoe. The skin received no injury by the solution, except that of discolouring, which cannot be removed by Any means for some weeks! the skin grows gradually red before it disappears. The young gentleman is in a truly deplorable state, and seldom speaks, except to utter curs:a upon the head of his hair-adviser.--if edical Advise•. A Rsu any 105 WORMS.—Take thirty grains of pow obired senna leaves at night, and salts next morning.—Mc- Aim( Adviser. _ - On Tuesday night last about nine o'clock. some miser: ant attempted to set fire to the premises of Mr. Hamhleton, sl'ocniaker, in the market-place, of Wallingford, by placing a lighted candle amongst some dry faggots in a woodhouse directly behind the dwelling-house. The wood had taken fire, but it was fortunately discovered in time to prevent any mischief. On the following night, about the same hour, after the men had retired from work, an unusual Liht was observed in an upper work-shop, when an indi vidual from an adjoining yard, having promptly gained an ,mtraile.e through the window by means of a ladder, found a quantity of sacking cloth blazing in the room, which. after some time, he extinguished. It is probable, from the boisterous state of the wind on Wednesday night, that It the diabolical intentions of the incendiary succeeded, the cansequenees would have been dreadful in that part of the town. The Magistrates are using every exeitioa to throw light on this mysterious transaction, which has produced great alarm amongst the neighbours, but unfortunately nothing has yet been elicited which san bring the of Se junks. libli. to LAW INTPLI.IGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY. SAT U RDAY , FEB. 6. iw It lIMILTE. Counsel were folly beard in the lunatic petition, and the up!. ' mines am:Tied the whole of the day. The 1.0 II CUANEELLoa observed, thili this was a petition of • singular ;lamer. It was that of the husband against the wife, and it prayed for a commission to inquire whether or not she was a Ittratic. Although it might be said that these commissions ought to be grunted, rx deLifo justicia, yet the sound discretion of the Chancellor should be previously exercised. and the Court ought to be extremely can loos how it granted commissions of this nature, where the husband was petitioner. In the whole course of his long practise, he never recollected but one case of the same kind, and there the commission was refused. This lady conceived herself to hare been iii-used by her littebanit This might be true or false, but this he kit quite sure, that he (bind Eldon) should be the most mischievous of all human pests. If he was to issue a commis sion upon the facts as they had been stated to him upon affidavit. The female sex, supposed to be inferior to the male in point of res. son (whether Justly or not he could nut pretend to determine), very often felt strongly when they conceived themselves to be ill used. Was he then to issue a commission because this lady had gone be yond the strict line of reason with iespect to her alleged ill-treat. anent ? After some further observations relative to the judgment he had given in Lord Pnitanimith's case. and the doubts he then entertained, he concluded by dismissing the petition. The question of costs was reserved. COURT OF KING'S lIENCH, SATURDAY, Pas.. The business in this Court affurde4 no use of any interest to the public. COURT OF COMMON PICAS, SATURDAY, FEB. 5. in Ilunen. ix Till MATTER OF AxlA HAala AND MART HAIIIIIOII, V. STONE, CENT. During the course of hat Term, 51r Sergeant VACCIIIAH ob tained a rule to show cause why the defendant, an attorney, mid. ing near Gloucester, !thou's' not refund a certain sum of money., which it was alleged he had received from the complainants, and why he should not give them an account of some property stated to have been sold Le itim on their behalf. Ale Sergeant PLbt, and Mr. Sergeant Must now appeared to show cause against the rule. The defendant had been charged, first, with having improperly received a soot of money, in order to procure bail for the complainants in an action which they expected would be brought against then' at the suit of a third person, named Dring ; ens!, secondly, with having persuaded the complainants to execute an assignment of all their property for the benefit of their creditors, which assignment he procured to be made to two persons, one of whom was described to be a mere man of straw, and the other was stated to be his own clerk. And that he had aleta refused to render any accounts to the complainants concerning the money which had been deposited with him as security for his undertaking to procure bail, and that which he had received as the produce of their goods, sold under the deed of assignment. To these charges the defendant could afford the most satisfactory answers. The COI*IIT suggested that as there were matters of account, die whole care had better be referred to the Prothonotary, and the question as to the defendaet's conduct would be more satisfactorily stiscuued, when that officer made his report. Mr. Sergeant PF.LL replied to this suggestion by observing, that if this case involved merely matter of accounts, he should not have the slightest objection to refer it to the officer, but as the defend ant's character was concerned in it, and as he telt convinced that he could now give a most complete and satisfacaory answer to the charges that had been brought against him, he wished to have the case decided without further delay. The County seeming to acquiesce in the propriety of this obser vation, the Learned Sergeant proceeded. The facts of the ease, with reference to the first charge, were sim ply these :—The complainants had carried on the grocery business in Gloucestershire, and becoming somewhat embarrassed in their circumstances, had applied to the defendant for his professional assistance, as they were in daily expectation of being arrested by a person named Driog, to whom they were indebted in a considerable sum of money. They requested the defendant to - put in bail for them, and he consented to give his undertaking, provided they would indemnify him to nearly the amount of the debt. This they did, by depositing in his hands a spin of 100/., the debt being abore Da Shortly after this, no arrest taking place, he advised them to execute a deed of assignment of all their property, for the benefit of their creditors, and he procured the consent of those creditors to ac cept a small composition in lieu of their debts. The deed of assign ment lowing been drawn up, the two persons to whom he proposed it should be directed, were a Mr. Smith, an auctioneer, and a Mr. White, who was employed by Mr. Stone as a tithe collector, and to whom 1 / 4 1 that capacity very large sums of money were constantly entrusted. The nomination of these persons met with the appro bation of the complainants, and Mr. White subsequently executed the deed. When Mr. Smith was requested to do so, he declined to undertake the office of assignee, but subsequently, as an auctioneer, sold the goods transferred by the assignment, by which sale a aunt of 1151. was produced. A commission of bankruptcy having been subsequently issued against the complainant, the defendant did not at once pay over to them the money then in his hands, because, had lie done so, he might have been liable to repay it to the assignees chosen under the commission, should any such have been appoint ed. Finding, hoverer, that the commission was not proceeded in, lie concluded the arrangements made under the deed of assignment, l and having paid the composition and satisfied some other debts, he had only remaining in his possession a sum of 21., which he was ready to allow in account for the benefit of the complainants. The rums he had received were 100!. deposited with him, and 115!. the produce of the sale of the goods. Out of these two sums he had already paid 3131. and there were still unsatisfied demands upon these complainants. The defendant most positively denied that lie had ever refused to render an account of these sums to the corn. plainants, which he was always ready to do. The CHIEF JUSTICE called on Mr. Sergeant Vaughan to sup port his rule, which he attempted • but the whole Court expressed their most decided opinion that the charges had been completely and satisfactorily answered, and accordingly they discharged the rule with costs. Mr. Sergeant PELt., in the course of showing cause, having al luded to a statement in a newspaper, respecting this transaction, by which the character of the defendant was affected, The Cnizr JUSTICE took occasion to observe, that with such statements the Court but nothing to do—they could not prevent the publication of tx-parfe statements : but he must, for one, declare. that he canidereci them u extremely improper c he thought it cruel that in this country, and in this country alone, a man WAS doomed to pass many sleepless nights on account of his feelings being wounded by the publication of en e.r-pur:e statement, which might prove, as in the preseut instance, completely unfounded. SIIERIFF'S COURT, COLEILAN.STErE, FEB. L. BONAPARTE'S WILL. CWARLES TRISTAN COUNT DE wox,norow, giro:row OF THR LAST WILL CF NAPOLEON BONAPARTE, PLAINTIFF', JAOPES LAFITTE, DEPENDANT. Sir. F. Potiocx, Counsel for the plaintiff; stated that the plaintiff' was the executor of the last will of Napoleon Bonaparte; and the defendant had been Bonaparte's banker in Paris, with a hom he wag in the habit of lodging considerable sums of money, previous to his quitting France in the year 1815. %When Pons pane left France in that year. lie took with him documents from the defendant, which showed the amount of the money then in de fendant's hands belonging to Bonaparte. 'These documents it would not be necessary now to produce ; but an account, the result of them, and a declaration of the defendant's, admitting its cor rectnesa, and that the balance, equal to 129.4'22/. 6a. 2d. remained in his hands, would be proved, which would entitle the plaintiff* to a verdict fur that sum. It would be unnecessary to prove the will of Bonaparte. as the defendant, by allowing judgment to go by default, admitted that the plaintiff was the executor. The Hon. Douglas Kinnaird stated that he was acquainted with the defendant's hand. writing ; he had seen Min write, and was in the habit of seeing his wr'ting every week ; the signature to the R.:count and declaration predated were in the defendant's hand writing. Mr. John Allan Powell produced translated copies of the ac count and declaration proved by Mr. Kinnaird. The balance due to Bonaparte on the account was 3,218,500 francs. The declara tion stated, that the defendant held that sum on account of Napo leon Bonaparte, and was dated Jan. IS. 1825. Major Miller stated, that be knew the defendant, and had lately seen him in Paris, at which time lie (the defendant) mad the de claration nate produced, and said the contents were true. Mr. 11. illiam Criqueler stated, that be was clerk to a French merchant in London. and was acquainted with the rate of exchange with France. At the rate of exchange yesterday, 3,210,51/0 francs was equal to 129.1221. 6s. 21. This was the cave for the plaintiff; to which there was nn The :SECONDARY charged the Jury that the evidence was cam he Jury immediately aesesee.l the damages at 129,4221. 6*. 2d. ,•••• I,IP. •••4; -• r. •• •• •••• • THE BRITISH PRESS. drying bacon, and were the sole invention of Mr. Perkins's father. The defendant had offered the plaintiff 601. which was rejected, as ' a compensation. Mr. ADOLPHUS. for the defendant, addressed the Jury in a humorous and concise speech. This was a cue in which his client happened, in the circle of his acquaintance, to know one of those " Jacks of all trades," who knew a little of every thing, and who, because among al: the nonsense Le had talked, had given a useful suggestion, now claimed an enormous compensation for it, in the character of a civil engineer. With respect to drawings and de signs, the Learned Counsel had expected to have sten something of the kind exhibited in the case ; but, in fact, all the drawing he could perceive was the drawing of the declaration, unless the chalk mark on the door, given in evidence, could be considered as such. If so, the moat exquisite touch from the pencil of a Claude or a Raphael must sink in value before the very ingenious etchings of the plaintiff, who could as well have described his object by the bend of his elbow as by any other means. It appeared, moreover. that this gentleman, instead of being a civil enginuer, was nothing but a chyntist. Ile hoped that the Jury would not suffer them selves to be furred into his apparatus on the present occasion, fur it was evident he had turned alchymist now, and wanted, by this action, to turn all his dross into gold. The Learned Counsel con. eluded by expressing his opinion, that one shilling would be ample cotnpensation in the present case, and would afford the plaintifra useful lesson how he again tried experiments with his friends, by bringing actions against them. The Jury, after an hour's consultation, found a verdict— Damage, 40s. FROM SATURDAY :NIGHT'S GAZETTE. --.NI-- Carlton House, February 2.

The defer.dant suffered judgment to go by default. It appeared that the plaintiff; W11:1 was in fact a chymiat, an not a civil engineer, was acquainted with the defendant, who was a dryer of bacon in Gosvrell.street, and as it was suggested by the former that laical could he dried much more advantageously by the adoption of rer. king's pstent stoves for that purpose, he atter:led the detendant on more occa.inns titan one, and pointed out the mode in which the stoves could he applied, in consequence of which one of thou was adopted. and &nattered the purposes eontemplwed, though not so etleeteally as the defendant expected. A bill of patticulars was put in as a part of the plaintiff's ease, wherein charges were made fur drawings, designs, he. none of 'Lich, however, were produced, and the only drawing e'er made by the plaintiff; that appeared in evidence, was the definearion of an argle in chalk, on a door which was to biggest an altairatian in one of the pipes of the stove. Mr. Ptrktus, the sun of the patentee of the new stoves, explained the nature of their opuation.

The thieves carried away a weather-glass, a tea.caddy, a great coat, and a variety of minor articles. It was subsequently ascer tained by Donaldson and Lack. two of the constables, that the pri. sonrn went to the Thistle and Crown public-house, Gray's- Inn-lane, on the morning of the 28th, and had breakfast ; they then entrusted the stolen property to the care of the landlady, in whose house it was found by the officers; and some of the minor articles were found in their possession.

MARY-L.i-BONNE OFFICE. CHILD MonDEL—On Saturday morning a young woman, named Elizabeth Nell, was brought before WIC HOSKINS, Esq., charged with having murdered her child. Mr. Mills, a gentleman residing in George-street, Portman. square, stated that the prisoner lived with him in the capacity of a servant since the !nth of January last, at which time lie did rot perceive her to be in a state of pregnancy ; but on Tuesday last he made the discovery, and accused her of it. The prisoner, at the time, did not give any answer; on which he desired her to prepare herself to leave the house on Tuesday next. On tile morning of Friday last, on coming down from his bed-room, lie perceived some unusual marks on the mat at the bottom of the stairs. He suspected immediately that the unfortunate prisoner had delivered herself, and instantly went up to her bed-room, where he perceived similar marks. On meeting the prisoner he perceived his suspicions were not groundless; but the prisoner continued to do her work as usual. Witness, with another person, commenced a strict search, and found a male infant, wrapped up its a cloth, in one of the dresser drawers in the kitchen. There appeared to be two pieces of twine round the neck of the child, which he supposed might cause strangulation. The unfortunate young woman, who does not appear to be more than twenty years of age, was committed to Clerkeuwell. to await the verdict of the Coroner's Inquest. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

[From the Limerick Observer.] Friday night a Pirge party attacked the house of a man of the name of Bartholomew Danaher, on the lands of C'urragts, near Castle Mahon, in the barony of Upper Cameline, in thin county, and succeeded in carryin:f away a young girl, his daugh:er. Data. her and a few of his neighbours followed them. and speedily appre.: heeded one of them, named Brown, whom they lodged in New. castle Bridewell. The young girl has not since been beard of. Wednesday night four cows were houghed on the lands of Glen_ baron, within four miles of Tipperary, the property of a poor man named Duane. This poor min's house had been burned on the same lands about a year back. Saturday night a man named Barrett was waylaid on his return frogs this city to his reaitlznue at .11111 ford, near Gildiino, by a large party, who met him between 04mA and BSI:limo. They best him in a most barbarous manner, and broke his skull in serail places. A few nights ago the house of W. Crooke. of Gurtfrey, in Sliev ardagh, county Tipperary, was broken open by tour robbers, and rubbed cf cash and promissory notes. (Inc of the robbers bad a hatchet, with which he cut and wounded Crooke and his wife in a barbarous manner. . _ Monday an Inquest was held in the County Hospital, on the body of'llionias hearty, who, it appeared, came. by his death in consequence of a fracture in the skull, which he got on Saturday evening, in Thomond-gate, fmm a party of fellows who waylaid him, and beat him In I most wantouly barbarous manner. A verdict of " Wilful Murder against persons unknown" was re turned. PROVIDENTIAL ESCAPES. On Wednesday last, u thebng Broughton Tower, of and for Hanington, was passing this port from ttrangford, cattle-laden, a man of the name of James APGarrity fell overboard ; and the ac cident being fortunately perceived by the muter. Benjamin Wea. tray, be threw out a rope, and ordered the ship to be rounded ro. Alliarrity being an expert swimmer, soon got hold of the rope, and was taken on boon!. The vessel then proceeded for !Jarring ton, but the wind was blowing so strong front the South (which is right out of the harbour), that she was prevented from entering, and as there was a heavy sea running, she was driven on shore be hind the woodwork. Soon afterwards, the Henry, Steel, failed in a similar attempt to enter the harbour, and was also driven ashore close to the Broughton. Tower, whose stem was stove in by the bow of the Henry. The jib-boom of the latter coming in contact with the main rigging of the former, Captain Westray, to prevent further mischief, was about to cut away the lanyard, when it broke, and he was precipitated into the water. The sea was at this time running so high, that no boat dared to denture out to his assistance ; and it was a heart-rending sight to see him struggling with the waves, with scarcely a chance of pre serving his lite ; as he attempted to reach the slime, the retiring surge still threw him back. Nothing daunted, however, he next made for the wood-work. which forms a sort of triangle ; but 'one again the back surge baffled all his efforts to get hold • exhausted by his struggles, he seemed to lose the power of further con. tention with the angry waves ; and then was heard " The bubbling cry Of the strong swimmer in his n,, ,, 0ny." By this time numbers of persons had assembled on the top of the wood-work, ready to lend all the assistance in their power. A boat's oar was handed out to him; and with a convulsive effort he 'kited it, but was compelled to quit his hold by the overpowering force of a tremendous sea, which washed a man from the woodwork, of the name of Edward 81• Carrol, who was exerting himself to save Cap tain Westray's life, and there was every appearance that both individuals would perish. However, a rope having been procured, they were fortunately both got on shore; Captain AVestrsy being so muck exhausted, that it was leand the vital spark had fled. lie was quickly conveyed to his house, where Dir. Johnston, surgeon, with a most humane alacrity, pro ceeded to use the means recommended by the Royal Humane So ciety, for restoring suspended animation, and in • short time hap pily succeeded in his efforts, and Captain W. is now duing well. A subscription was set on foot by Captain P. Ditchburn, to reward the brave men who, at the imminent risk of their own lives, exerted themselves so strenuously to save that of their fellow -creature, whom they rescued from the very jaws of death. The sum of 81. was very soon collected, and divided between Edward 31• Carrol, Robert Renner, John George William llobkins , William Caddes, and Richard James.— Whitekraeat Gazette. BIRTH.
