ICOL AND CO.'S COLONIAL COFFEE MART, IS, Fenchurch-street, 41 branch Establishment, 15, Rathbone-place, Oxford street. [HE COLONIAL COFFEE MART was established by the West India Planters and ,:,„,, e "" 1 , with s ,iew to promote a more general use of Yi - " t 'letome and delicious beverage of Coff e e, by sup n'r t he Public with a very superior article at a very :"erate advance on the import price. This system, so 44 41 to the consumers of Coffee, has been duly appre sted , the design of the projectors liberally encouraged and ::on !noted by the Public ;—attracted the notice and commen of the faculty ; 4 and the consumption of Coffee in con 14,enee has increased of late years to an unp a rall e l e d ex -4' in any corresponding period. I n comp li ance w i t h 4 ,, , :Kent request of numerous famili es o f di s ti nc ti on i n , e d ' v estern district of London, the proprietors, NICOL Co. have opened a Branch Warehouse, at 15, Rath 'Place, for the sale of pare, sound, wholesome Coffee, et tetl with particular care and great judgment, and int :44 direct from the Colonies by themselves, for the of these two Establishments. The present die :4H state of the country operating alike upon agricul nlanufacture, and every description of produce, ren :ra it a consideration worthy of notice, where the Public ab best and most economically supply themselves necessaries of daily and universal consumption, of Coffee now forms a particular article ; hut ' O4 l l l the Colonial Market has suffered and heavily par eq'sted in th e con ti nue d d e p ress i on o f every spec i es o f , ti lness the advantages to the consumer accruing from an "stocked and unsaleable market has not been fully ex "ell to the public, nor can it, where articles have to through the hands of numerous wholesale and retail 41 " - s, rendering to each some profit ere it reach the acs 41, consumer. The object of establishing the Colonial 4fr ee Mart is to save this to the Public, as no interme ate charge is made between the Coffee Grower and °f ree Drinker, but the unavoidable necessary expences in 41'ed in importing the Coffee, and incidental to carry on 4 original design of supplying the Public at a moderate to with pure, sound, and wholesome Coffee ; and to 4 flilies, Coffee Houses, Hotels, and Sear Divans, where 1-ts Consumption should induce studied economy, this Stablishment offers every possible advantage.

The LORD CHANCELLOR gave judgment in this case, which arose upon an application for an injunc tion, which had been dissolved by the Lord Chan cellor, on cause being shewn against it, by the plaintiff. In 1802, the plaintiff was the assignee of a patent for improvement in ships' cabooses, and it appeared that the patentee and his assignees had enjoyed the exclusive use of the invention for about seven years. It appeared that then an alteration was made, by which, instead of the fire-place being open, and capable of being closed by an iron plate with hinges, a fixed iron plate was sastituted, and the fire-place was fed by means of a furnace. In other respects the machines corresponded. His Lordship thought, that notwithstanding these altera tions, the plaintiff ought to be considered as having enjoyed the patent up to the present time. The rule of law iu these cases had been laid down by Lord Eldoncto be, that where a patentee had for a number of years enjoyed the exclusive possession of a patent, the Court would not allow that possession to be disturbed, and would grant an injunction until the trial at law, whatever doubt there might be as to the validity of the patent. On the other hand, if such possession could not be proved, the Court would not grant its protection, but would send the parties to a Court of Law to decide the question. After reading the specification, he could not but entertain great doubt whether it could be supported. It included a new and an old machine, and he thought that the improvement ought to have been much more minutely and accurately pointed out. ' He doubted, too, whether that part of the inven tion which was claimed as a novelty, as to con structing the covers of the boilers, was a new in vention. Its application to ships' cabooses might be novel; but it was very questionable whether that alone entitled it to protection. The infringement being, as his Lordship thought, well established, supposing the patent could be supported, the machine appeared to be accurately enough described. It was not, however, his province to decide the validity of the patent on the ground he had alluded to, and lie mast therefore order the injunction to be revived. Some arrangement should be made for the speedy trial at law of the patent-right, and he therefore ordered the declaration to be delivered before the assoign-day of the next Term, and the trial should be in the Court of Common Pleas. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, DEC. 22. FRENCH V. BROOKE AND OTHERS. This action was brought by the plaintiff against the defendants as directors of " The Famatina Mining Company," one of the ephemerals of 1E25, to recover a balance of salary due to the plaintiff as superintendent of the company's mining concerns in South America, and also for monies laid out and expenses incurred on account of the defendants. The plaintiff was employed by the defendants in the summer of 1825, and a contract was entered into, whereby they engaged to pay him a salary at the rate of 6001. a year for the first year, commencing from his embarkation, and 501. additional each sue ceding year until he completed the period of three years from the date of his arrival at the mines. If at that period no fresh cmtract were entered into, the plaintiff's expenses home to England, and those of his family, were to be defrayed by the company. And if before the expiration of the three years the defendants should think proper to dismiss the plain tiff from their service, they were only to do so on giving a twelvemonth's notice, or a twelvemonth's salary, and were also to defray his expenses home. The defendants contended that they were not liable, because they had contracted merely on behalf of the company, and not on their own responsibility; and because the agreement was not under seal. Both these grounds of objection were overruled by the Learned Judge, and the items of account were therefore gone into, the defendant's Counsel hav ing declined to refer this part of the case. The Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff, damages 1,0251.; together with the further sum of 320/., as the expenses of his family's journey home to England, and also seven months' additional salary, at the rate of 700/. a year, in case the Court above shall be of opinion, upon the legal construction of the contract, that the plaintiff is entitled to remune ration upon these two points. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, DEC. 22. Allersall, a coachmaker, late of No. 18, Bartholomew-square, was opposed by Mr. Cooke, on behalf of Messrs. Curl and Upstone. The insolvent, who appears to be verging on 70 years of age, was married to his present wife in 1826. Shortly before which he executed a marriage settlement in favour of his wife, for 501. a-year, chargeable on a house of his in Theobald's-road, the rent of which was 841. a-year. lie also had two houses, Nos. 18 and 19, Bartholomew-square, worth 30/. a-year each. All his furniture he sold in May, a few days before he went to prison, to a broker, for about 10/. William Hackwood, a carman, in May was em ployed by the insolvent's wife to remove a van load of furniture from his house to the house of his son, in St. George's market, Southwark, and at the same time another van was loaded also with the fur niture, and taken to the same place, making two loads of good furniture. There were also 14 stoves, which the witness had now in his possession, be cause the insolvent's wife had not paid him his charge for removing the goods. Mr. Edward Savage Bayly, solicitor for the op posing creditors, deposed that if the insolvent had given up this furniture, they would have relieved him from prison. Mr. COOKE here intimated to the insolvent, that the creditors were still disposed to release him, if he would give up the furniture. The insolvent said that lie had nothing to give up. Mr. WOODROOFE begged that the case might be adjourned for the present, in order to endeavour to bring the insolvent to his senses. The case was then adjourned. MR. 'MADDEN'S TRAVELS IN TURKEY, EGYrT, NUBIA, AND PALESTINE.—When we hear so much of the barbarism of the Turks, and are desired to give so much credit to Russia for civilization, whatever relates to the Customs, Manners, Pursuits, and Amuse ments, which prevail in the principal of the Mahoznedan States, cannot fail to prove eminently attractive to the English reader. Mr. MADDENS narrative possesses the advantage of showing to us what is the state of society, and what are the manners prevailing in the East, down, as we may say, to the present time. His travels and ob servations extend over a very considerable space of country, and embrace a period of four years, during which he visited and made a sojourn at Constantinople, in Candia, at Alexandria, &c. lle also visited the ruins of Troy, of Memphis, of Thebes, and of Jerusalem, his vivid de scriptions of which memorable places would alone confer the highest value on hie labours.

In consequence of a ballot havingbeen, on Monday, demanded for the election of Common Council for this Ward, a poll commenced yesterday at eleven o'clock, in the school-room belonging to Aldgate Church, which created a good deal of interest. Placards were stuck up in the avenues of approach with these words:—" Portsoken Electors,—if you want a reform of the Corporate abuses, vote for Scales," which created some excitement to learn how Mr. Scales would succeed. The poll closed at two o'clock, when Alderman Sir James Shaw read aloud the several numbers as follow : Mr. Colebatch 94 I Mr. Prested 69 Carter 86 • Negus 66 Smith 821 Perry .... •Seales SO There was no speaking; and the attendance of the electors having been requested for this day at eleven o'clock, the business concluded.

WRITTEN ON HEARING THAT THI REIS EFFENDI HAD DANCED WALTZES AND QUADRILLES AT THE LATE BALL GIVEN TO THE DIVAN BY SIR B. GORDON. Who'll deny these times are charming, Far beyond all Scott's romancing— Here, we've Tory Lords reforming, There, we've Turkish Statesmen dancing ! Here, the Reis Effendi waltzes, Leaving llouris in the lurch ; There, M—ntc—l's Earl assaults his Nurse's ancient friend, the Church ! To it, hard and fast, they set, Leading off the general jig ; Who now cares for Mahomet ? Who now cares for Ferns's wig ? " En avant" the Turk, on tiptoe, To his gay quadrillers cries ; " En avant" the Tory's lip, too, For a wonder, back replies. Though, as yet, but clumsy prancers Turk and Tory are, no doubt, Only think how late, as dancers, Or as reasoners, they've come out. Add to which, the Koran teaches Just as little of a Ball, As my Lord of L—rt—n's speeches Teach of—any thing at all. But no matter—learning's powers Soon will make the Turks go faster; — If " the school-mater" be ours, Let them have the dancing•master. And,—if thus its new-born glories Intellect so swiftly scatters,— Waltzing Turks and reasoning Tories Won't be, soon, such wondrous matters.— Times COURT OF REQUESTS, DEC. 22. CAUTION TO NEWSMEN. Yesterday Mr. IY. Wright, surgeon to her late Majesty, was summoned before the Commissioners of this Court, in Vine-street, Piccadilly, to show cause why he refused to pay Mr. David Cross, the news-agent, of Marlborough -street, 1/. 19s. for newspapers, bought and lent to read, and other tiifling articles. The defendant, as a set-off, pleaded that the debt was illegally contracted, and he could not be com pelled to pay for the mere reading of borrowed newspapers. . . _ M. Cross stated that hia son lived as errand-boy with the defendant, who owed him 11. Bs. for wages. During the time his son was in the habit of taking newspapers to his house, at the request of the de fendant, who borrowed them to read at 2d. per day, and he occasionally had some on credit; and on making his demand, he (the defendant) refused to pay him, as he (witness) had acted illegally by lend ing out papers to read at so much per day, and that he had committed a fraud upon the Stamp-office by preventing, in consequence of the loan, the purchase of a paper. Mr. Wright being asked for his defence, said that the claim of the plaintiff was decidedly illegal, and he could not be bound either by law or equity to pay the sum sued for. He did not deny having borrowed and read the newspapers at so much per day; but the plaintiff had acted contrary to the Act of Parlia ment, and had rendered himself liable for penalties for sending out papers to read, as it was a palpable injury to the Stamp-office. COMMISSIONER—You say, Sir, that the plaintiff has acted contrary to an Act of Parliament. It is a most strange set-off, when you yourself encouraged him to a breach of the law, and countenanced an im proper act. You have confessed having contracted the debt, which I think you are bound in honour to pay to the plaintiff. Mr. Wright—l differ ; I have no right to pay the money unless he can legally establish his claim. Here is the Act of Parliament which he has in fringed. . . . solicitor of the Court—The plaintiff certainly cannot establish his legal claim to the money for newspapers lent out to read at so much per day. Mr. Wright said he had no right to pay any of the demand. Mr. Cross had introduced a female patient to him, who was extremely deaf, and undertook to pay him (Mr. W.) in the event of curing her, which he did, but he was never paid. Mr. Cross denied having made a promise to pay the money ; he only undertook to see it paid by the young woman. The COMMISSIONERS ordered the defendant to pay for the papers purchased, and the remainder of the demand, with the exception of the demand for the reading of the newspapers. The Austrian and French Ambassadors had interviews with the Earl of ABERDEEN on Monday at the Foreign, Office. COMMISSION OF LUNACY. (Continued from our Parr of ye‘terd.y.) Mr. WRIGHT then proceeded to review the rvi tence in support of the commis-ion. AR we have alreidy given the evidence very fully, it will be un necessary to follow the Learned G-tolernart through his speech, except in those parts of it where he holed to the examination of the alleped lunatic.--- The Learned Gentleman, addressing the Jury ott this subjec', said—You must have sees', gentle men, that mans- of the delusions spoken of by the witnesses have been confirmed by Mr. liivies him self. Mr. Davies has told you that he saw two men, in two carts, with grey horses; he has told you that he was terrified at the appearance of them, and that he took them for resurrection-men, or for other low characters. When Mr. Davies was asked why he believed, at Furnival's Inn Coffee-house, that there were thieves in the house, he said he had heard the striking of lights and the snapping of pis tols,—when this question was just now put to MI . . Davies, he would not reply to the question. All that could be got out of him was this—" I told the waiter that, if there was a fire in the house, I would be the last person to leave this room. You will re collect, too, gentlemen, that,- in all the questions put to him on the evidence, he said, " I am informed so and so." Now from this it is clear that he has been tutored ; and it is no wonder, therefore, that he has denied all you have heard about visions. From what Mr. Davies has told you respectiog the crime he thought he was accused of, you must have seen that the whole was delusion, and that the account given by the witnesses is correct. You saw bow he wished to avoid this subject; yet, when pressed to answer, he confirmed all you had heard With respect to the pistol, Mr. Davies tokl you it went off by accident. Mr. Nobler had before told you the same story ; but Mr. Hobler added, that • the mother of Mr. Davies was not at all alarmed at it. Mr. Davies, however, has contradicted this ; he has told you that his mother was alarmed. Apin, Mr. Davies had told you that he was worth 16,0(V.; and that, nevertheless, he took 6,0001. from hie trade and give it for a house which no one had values. Mr. PHILLIMORE—No, be did not say he to k the money from his trade. He said that he took it from the funds. Mr. ADOLPHLS—No doubt he did; but, Sir, we had much rather Mr. Wright should go on. Mr. WRIGHT—WeII, if it was taken out of the funds, still it was an imprudent act, because he wanted it in his trade. The witnesses stated to you, that Mr. Davies said he should consider him self justified in running any one who insulted him through the body. Mr. Davies was therefore asked to mention what insults he had received. lie conk(, you will recollect, only state one. And what was that ? Why, merely that a person had asked him if his tea was good? With respect to the story of the lady in Kensington-gardens, and his conduct towards Dr. Latham, Mr. Davies has told you that that was all a joke; but will you believe this, after the evidence you have heard on the subject ? or will you not rather consider it as a part of the tutorie,; Mr. Davies has undergone? 1 thitl that the is o duction of Mr. Davies this day has proved the case, and either confirmed, or left uncontradicted, the most material portions of the evidence. The Court was adjourned till to-morrow (this day) at twelve o'clock, Mr. Brougham being retained in a case which is to be heard the first thing to-morrow in the Common Pleas, and consequently unable to attend at Gray's-inn so early as eleven o'clock. [The examination of Air. Davies was strictly pri vate, but, from the statements of some of the par tics who were present, it would appear that he con ducted himself with propriety, and answered in a satisfactory manner most of the questions put to him. His manner was neither excited nor fiurtied, nor did he make use of any of those gesticulations or strained attitudes which have been ascribed to him.] The Earl and Countess of JERSEY took their leave of tie Duke and Duchess of WELLINGTON 011 Monday morning, at Strathfielloiye, and proceeded to their residence, Osterley Park. RIDING THE GREAT HORSE.—Captaiti —, and a couple of friends, hired horses a few days ago, and proceeded to a neighbouring market town, where they passed several hours to their own satisfaction, and not less to that of their host. Returning in the evening, the cap tain somehow or other contrived to make more lee-way than his companions, and feeling himself naturally annoyed by the heavy a tiling of his steed, he ventured to drive his spurs well home into its sides. The animal instantly darted off, and, in a few minutes, the rider bit the dust. He was found in a state of insensibility, and carried to the house of a gentleman, who resided near to the spot where the accident happened. After partially recovering from the effects of the fall, he looked wistfully around him and addressed the persons next him in thes! words—" Brought up, by the hookey, that's certain, butishiver my timbers if I know the country, messmates." On being informed where lie was, be pondered over the affair for a few mo ments, and then added,—" d'ye mind me, friends, I was standing before the wind, and making good, as 'imagined, full fifteen knots an hour, when the brute I rode breached to, and in the twisting of a rope of yarn, and before there was time to let go either tack or sheet, overboard I went, and for what has happened since I must look to your' journals, because my log, I'm thinking, will be of little use." We are glad the worthy captain has sustained no serious injury, and we hope he will be careful how lie again commits himself to the dangers of travelling on horseback. —Sheffield Mercury. PATENT RIGHTS.--FRACAS AT THE THEATRE.—Wednesday evening, whilst the performers were in the last act of the play, a number of persons in different parts of the house, began suddenly to annoy the actors by continual hissing and other marks of disappro bation. At the commencement of the afterpiece, the din•' approbation became more general, and not a word uttered by: he performers could be heard. At last Mr. Ilevear,/, the manager, made his appearance, and requested to know what the audience wanted ? After waiting for a short time, a gentleman, from one of the lower boxes, said the noise was occasioned by the Italian company, whose per formances had been stopped, and who, he said, were now in the pit. This statement caused a great eensatioa throughout the house, and " turn them out, no foreigners, ' resounded through the house. After some degree of ordt t had been obtained, Mr. BEVERLY addressed the audience for some time, but the noise was so great that only a pat t of what he said could be clearly heard in the boxes. He, said he, considered it a very great hardship upon him, who had embarked his all in the concerns of this theatre, to be treated in the manner that he was, by Italian operas being performed in a house that was not liceaced. He said, when they came to Manchester they (the Italian company) advertised that they should only play for three nigkts— Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. When the proprietors of the theatre heard of this, they sent for him, and told him he must put a stop to it, as it could not be allowed, but he replied that if they expected him to be able to pay them the rent of the theatre, they must interfere and not him. The proprietors accordingly held a meeting, and sent a notice on the Friday, that if the Italian opera com pany performed after that day, informations would he laid against them for performing without a license ; but if they ceased their performance on the Friday, no further notice would be taken of the affair. This friendly notice they had set at defiance, and not only performed on the Satur day evening, but announced their intention of performing four nights during the present week. Informations were immediately laid by the proprietors, for he begted to be understood that he had nothing to do with it. He bad of fered the Italian company a clear half of the receipts if they would perform at the Theatre Royal; but they had refused. Mr. BEVERLY then adverted to the concerns of the Theatre, and said it was the first oat of Lo&den, both as to scenery and performers. He had expended his all upon it. He had last season engaged the best performers in the kingdom, Mr. KEAN, Madame VESTAIS, and lastly, Mr. BRAIIAM, who had played to nearly empty benches. fle had this season engaged a company that could not i.e surpassed out of the metropolis, and though the theatre had been open eight nights, he assured them, with tears in his eyes, that the receipts for the boxes for those eight nights only amounted to 10/. 17s. 6d. He concluded by saying, that he had no animosity against Mr. NEVILLE, or the Italian company ; all he wished was to be :protected in his just rights. Mr. BEVERLY was repeatedly cheered during his address. After he had concluded, Signor DE BEG NIS, who was in the dress boxes, attempted to a.blresi the house, but from the noise and uproar not a word could be beard for more than a yard or two from where he stood. Order being restored, the performance was suffered to proceed without any farther inierruption.— Manchester Time.%
