Where the question was, whether this Noble Lord was in a state of mind that required the care that was proposed to be thrown around him, it was material that a ques tion, in its nature so important, should be disposed of with as little delay as possible. It was a question which opened to considerations of so delicate a na ture, pressing so much on individual feeling, that it was sot right the Court bhou Id let it hen over. Mr. HRA La observed, that those who looked into the affidavits might have altered their opinions upon the subject ; on the part of those for whom he was Counsel, it had been deemed consistent with the justice of the case, that the matter should undergo a complete investigation; they were flilly persuaded that no elncidatiou of the matter tvuld hurt them ; they had, on the other hand, taken care to repre sent the cave in inch a manner, that nothing bat the most ample elucidation could help his client. The LORD CHANCELLOR said he had no wish to hurry the parties, bat he would thank them to let him know when they bad read and comidered the affidavits, when he would appoint the ea r li es t d ay for proceeding, for it appeared to him that a cue of this kind should Ise heard as early as possible, laud that when the hearing of it recommenced it should proceed without interruption. Mr. HIALD promised that he would begin to read the affidavits immediately after church time to.moerow. The ATTORNIT-GENRRAL suggested to him that it would be better to begin reading them this musing.

It must be evident to the Government of this country, that since the opening of their ports to strangers, luxury, vice, immorality, and in general poverty, have followed in their train. The most mistaken idea in the world is generally entertained of commerce to this country, as greatly enriching this people, and impoverishing others. The balance of trade is but little in their favour in amount, and the importation of manufactured goods, raw cotton, and opium, to the amount of twelve or fifteen mil lions annually, and daily increasing, strikes a blow at the very essence of their government. This state of things is feared by the Mandarins, and what measures they may adopt to avoid it is yet in the womb of futurity ; but I think this—l may ven ture to assure you, that our troubles in China have but commenced, and you may bear of important matters before long.” NORWOLK, movEwsza 4.

Mr. Serjeant ONSLOW stated, that this was an action brought by Mr. Ravenacroft, an eminent dresser of Barristers' wigs, against Mr. Archbold, • gentleman of the bar, for • aeries of dressings for his professional wig, during a course of years. The Jury might not know that the custom of the bar was to leave their wigs in Westminster-hall and Guildhall, and it was the business of Mr. Ravens. croft, who lived in Sae -street, to send for these wigs three times • week and dress them, the rate of payment being about three-pewee-halfpenny each dressing, no unreasonable charge when the trouble of sending so often in the week was conodered. The account was permitted to run on from 1811 to 1841. For the Defendant it was contended by Mr. Ser. joint TADDY, that the Plaintiff had not dressed the wig for the time se.cified in his account, the owner having bees abroad during a considerable part of the time charged for, and also that 3/.94. of the ac count, is due at all, was due to the assignees of the Plaintiff, who had been a bankrupt its the early port of the time. The Learned Serjeant denied that the uniform practice was for a barrister to have Isis wig dressed three times • week; that must de ' peed not only upon the taste of the owner, but also upon his business; for the Jury very well knew that many gentlemen, particularly in the be ginning of their practice, had not that frequent ne cessity of using their wigs in Court, which they af terwards acquired, and therefore avoided incurring what was to them a useless expense. It was true that Mr. Serjeant Ooslow had his wig dressed every day, and no doubt Mr. Ravenscroft had, sin the present day, put his wig into excellent condition, worthy of the man and the hair-dr .—(A laugh.) —Re (Mr. Serjeant 'faddy) was always glad to see his Learned Brother id excellent condition, even to the wig, and be knew that both in life and in death ' he was sure of the enjoyment of that ornament, for he bad seen the statues of his ancestors in Guildford Church-yard, with capital perukes— • Welt buckled ea in Pariaa dame," • and he trusted that his brother in Court would (but he hoped at • very distant period) shine among his ancestors the rival of one of them, the celebrated Speaker Onslow, in full marble wig of the statuary. Shuter, the solicitor, was called to prove the commission of bankruptcy against the Plaintiff in 1817 ; but Mills cross-elimination he said, that at the time a number of barristers were indebted to Mr. Ratenscroft, who, to prevent their bring sued, as was threatened by the assignees, paid the amount himself rather than risk the loss of his em ployer's business. The Loan Crater Junto' expressed his pain ful regret that a gentleman, known, as the Defend ant was, to be the author of several learned and ingenious works, often praised by the bench, should he exposed to such an action as the present. The Jury, however, had but one duty to discharge, which was to abide by the justice of the case, and find for the Plaintiff. The Jury immediately found for the Plaintiff for the whole amount of his bill, 131. 10s. .t • PRICE OF SUGAR. The avenge price of Brows or Muscovado Sugar, coo.

HAGUE, DECEMBER 3. The news that Prince Alexander Ypsilanti and some of his companions had been set at liberty, as some Journals stated, at the desire of Russia, is not confirmed. We learn that a letter from Constantinople of • very recent date states, than an European commer cial house, established in that city, has presented to the Porte a plan for • loan of 40 millions of Turkish piastres. The conditions, and the security which the house required, were not known, but the proposal had been most favourably received, only the Divan had reserved to itself to take so important • meamire into mature consideration. Should this loan be really made, it would probably put a stop to the depreciation of the currency, which causes so much discontent: but it would be very detrimental to the Greeks, who are much favoured by the exhausted state ,of the Treasury, and the wavering of the Ottoman Ministry, which is the consequence of it. *nauseate, uovniasa 23.
