DAVID DAVISON, M.A., recently a Candidate for the Junior Classical Mastership of the CITY of LONDON SCHOOL, having been rejected by the majority of the Committee of the Court of Common Council, to whom the appointment was referred, on the ground of religious opinion, notwithstanding his a cknowledged pre-eminent qualifications for the office, a f ew Friends to Religious Liberty have agreed to raise a FUND, to be aced in the hands of T rus tees, for the benefit of Mr. Daviso n an d P cis family, in order 1. T o express and record their indignant astonishment that, in the present day and within the Corporation of the Metropolis, a • l heologieal doctrinal test should have been set up as the standard of qualification for civil office, in an Institution established for the de tilted purpose of opening a liberal education to all the citizens of Lonclon, without distinction of sect or party ; and that it should nave been supported, amongst others, by Protestant Dissenters, who ale loud in the censure and complaint of the theological doctrinal tests, which exclude Dissenting scholars and teachers from educa tion and academic honours in the schools and colleges connected With the Church of England. 2. To mark their reprobation of the means resorted to in order to .defeat Mr. Davison's election, and their surprise and regret that some members of the Committee should have been prevailed upon by convicted falsehood and calumny either to withhold their pro taised votes, or to vote directly contrary to their promises ; and 3. To testify their sympathy with Mr. Davison on the disappoint ment of his well-founded expectations of making provision for a !numerous and interesting family, by the honourable exercise of his talent, and acquirements ; their high respect for his character as a gentleman, a scholar, a preceptor, and a Christian minister ; and their approval of the able and spirited manner in which he resisted, mid has exposed, the artifices of bigotry and intolerance. I ,ln thus declaring and recording their sentiments, the Friends ol ~i ' r.• Davison feel that they are upholding a great public principle, of civil importance at the present moment to the cause of both i'.Tit and religious liberty ; and they therefore invite the co-opera nn of all such as are desirous of preserving professedly Liberal In stitutions from the mischievous and fatal taint of sectarian and Zrseeuting tests, which are as alien from tho policy of Reformed 4 ntelpal Government, as they are inconsistent with Christian r %ra liq, unworthy of an enlightened age, and derogatory to the ri e lultatio n of the its maintenance of universal liberty of conscience.

It appears to this Meeting, from the facts now stated, that there is incontestable evidence that many parts of the Highlands and Islands of Scotland are at present in circumstances of the most appalling destitution, in respect generally of food, and in particular districts, also, of fuel and clothing ; and that if an immediate supply be not provided, famine, to a most awful and unprecedented extent, with its usual accompaniment of disease, must, ere long, lay waste these extensive and populous districts—that great exertions are therefore, imperiously called for, in order to meet the extreme ur gency and necessity of the case. 2. That this Meeting hereby resolve that subscriptions be imme diately commenced in aid of thsir destitute and suffering fellow countrymen. That the Bankers of London, and the following Book sellers : Messrs. James Nisbet and Co. ; Messrs. Hatchard and Son, Piccadilly • Messrs. Seely, Fleet-street; Mess r s.

B.cl DINNEFORD'S INDIAN TONIC, for Weak Stomachs, Flatulency, Indigestion, Loss of Ap petite, Nervous affections, and Constitutional Debility. Of Medicines in general use, there are none perhaps more valuable than safe and effective tonics; they improve and invigorate the constitution when inapal,red by the effects of climate, long use of medicine, protracted disease, or the ordinary decay of nature. The Indian Tonic is a prepara tion of aromatics indigenous to the East Indies, where their oombined effects have been witnessed for many years by a Physician of extensive pr2ct , ce in all complaints arising from weak stomachs, flatulency, loss of appetite, indigestion, nervous affections, and general debility. To elderly persons it imparts a genial warmth, and gives a tone and vigour to the constitution. In alleviating sea-sickness it has been found most successful. Prepared only by Dinneford, Chemist, No. 172, New Bond-street.

I ain't no scholard myself, but I knows werry well its three shillins, cos I paid it." The bill was handed up to the Learned Commissioner, but, although a first-rate classical scholar, Mr. Dubois de clared his inabity to make it out distinctly. The following is a true copy : " 1837 " March Cornelies Me:trty " To Richard Doyly Glazire " 29th for wun skuar of glas " ineserd wun foot sivin hinches " pade 0 " 3 " 0" What do you say to this account, Mr. Sweep, eh ? de manded the Commissioner. Defendant—Oh, I don't say nuthin not in perteckeler—fast is my Lord I did git my head through his windy, a nd I'll tell your Lordship all about it. COMMISSIOMER—D O SO, sir. Defendant—l will Sir. We was a gitting up a new piece as was a comin on that werry night at our cirkis in the New Cut, to be titled " The Man as drew Priam's Curtains ; or the Knight of the Blood-stained Knife."— (Laughter.) Yer sees, my Lord, the plot on it was as this : " Old Priam he gits to bed precious muzzy, and locks his door, and don't put no candle out ; he's sposed to have bin to a temperance club, and about to be served out cos he drankt gin and water till sic!' times as he busted. Well, I gits down the chimbley, sneaks up, and gits my head right through a slit in the bed-curtains, and then I ses, as black. Dan,' these ear words werry solemn : " Hallow, old feller !—feller there, hulloes ! You muzzy, snoring warmint wot's asleep ; Git up, old chap ; old chap, I say, git up ; The max is gone, and half yer night cap burned." At this ear pint," said defendant " I ducks my head un der the bedstead. Priam sits up, looks about, sees no thing, and so goes to sleep agin. Then I sings in a werry beakitied manner, a regular piece ; lie kicks jist like King Richard does in the tent scene. Then I ses in a werry dismal sort of manner, and not by no means not like O'Con nell, when he's a goin' to cry for more rint : " Will you git up P—once more I ses git up, Prium, my boy—here's all O'Connell's Greeks from Saffron-hill and Bloomsbury come down to help us regler ; now, old chap, git up—clap on yer castor—button up your coat, that is, if so be there's a button ou it. " Up with the pokers, make the shovels ring, Down Church, down State, down lazy Lords and—" Here I absconds up the chimbly, and the plot goes on." Mr. DUBOIS—Not here, my fine sample of the march of intellect, I assure you. Ah ! that's a'cause you a'int got no taste for the drammer, said Blackey. Perhaps not ,(said Mr. Dubois) and it would be ex tremely well for the ends of justice, and much to the cre-; dit of the magistracy, if such nests of juvenile infamy were put down. This amount must be paid immediately, and I really must say that you afford a splendid sample of thievery and theatricals. The gentleman in black was then handed out of Court. THE MARKETS.

SUSPECTED MURDER AT EALING DISCOVERY OF A HUMAN HEAD. (FURTHER PARTICULARS.) The parochial authorities are taking the most active steps, assisted by the metropolitan police stationed at Ealing, to discover whether any second crime, as horrid in its nature as the one which has lately harrowed the feelings of the country, has been committed in that neighbourhood. At present the most painful rumours are in circulation, while the parish and its vicinity are in a state of much excitement. The portion of the skull remaining, which consists of the cranium (the facial part and the lower jaw not having been found), has not, as was stated, any hair. It was reported that there was attached a length of hair. In addition to Mr. Dickenson, the surgeon, who examined the skull on Friday, Mr. Radcliffe, a medical gentleman residing at Brentford, went to the station-house, at Ealing., for the purpose of inspecting it, when he observed that the bone over the left temple had received an extensirs injury. It is the opinion of the above professional gentlemen that, from the appearance of the skull, the person to whose body it belonged was a young woman about eighteen years of age, and that she died about twenty years ago ; and it is re markable that several persons recollect that about that pe riod a person living at the house suddenly disappeared, her disappearance at the time causing much conversation. Since then the house has been occupied by various tenants, and it has been used as an academy for young gentlemen, from which circumstance some persons suppose that some of the young gentlemen were practising for the surgical profession, as, not long ago, a man at work there, and who is known to the constable, facing Ealing Church, found a thigh-bone. As it is supposed that other portions of the body may be in the recess where the skull was found, it has been ordered to be cleared out. FOR THE DRAWING-ROOM TABLE.

THE MAN WOT DREW PRIAM'S CURTAINS.—.•A chim ney-sweep of the very darkest hue, one whose countenance indicated a most singular combination of African ugliness with European cunning, was summoned by a good-natured looking bread maker, for the sum of 35., the price of a square of glass, which the said artificially sable defendant, it was alleged, had broken, while rehearsing " Jim Crow" in front of plaintiff's shop. Mr. Dußois (to the plaintiff)—Are you positive that the defendant did it purposely ? Plaintiff—Oh, yes, quite. I seed him put his warmiut of a head right through. COMMISSIONER—Did nobody see him beside yourself? Plaintiff--Not as I knows on ; but I've expected it this ear last three months ; fact is, he belongs to a penny theatere, and he and a good lot more on 'em as lives down the court as my shop's at the corner on, comes in front of my shop to rehearse ; I spose its cause of the oven as is underneath 'cm ; and as they usually comes jest as I'm a gettin in my second batch, why in course it reg lerly annoys me. Well, he comes on the 29th of this ear werry last month, and arter danein a bit, shuves his nastey cannister clean through. " Hulloes !" ses I, and hots him a sewere hit with my hand-brush. ‘• 'Inflow!" ses I, " where is you a coming to go ?" " Back agin, Mister Master," sea he. " Werr y well," ses I, " young clargy, and I hopes your p re p are d to drop the tin for the howdacious damages as you've done." " Don't yer wish )on may get it ?" ses he. " Yes," ses I, "my fine snowball, and you shall see as how I will get it," ses I. " What's the price iv taters now ?" ses lie. " Oh," ses I, " you newer takes nuthin out of reach." No," ses he, " but I shed like to have one of your tater sacks to send to our British mu seum." " Would ye," ses I. " You're the boy for the fat pot," ses he. " What d'ye mean ?" sea I. " Oh," ses he, `! you don't burn no gas ; the fat out of the wittles as you bakes makes prime bile ; don't it, old short-weight?" "Now, Mister Chummy," ses I, " arter your trying to take my character away, jest make you prove your words. With that we jest had a bit of a turn-up and there the thing ended--this ear's the bill as the glazer sent into me. CORN 11 of all kind: Wheat. Barley. Oats. Pease. Beans First 7os.

The subscription list in London now amounts to 12,0001. In the confession of Edward Clarke, of Bures St. Mary's, executed in Chelmsford, was the following curious article :—" I, Edward Clarke, now in a few hours expecting to die, do sincerely wish as my last request that three of my fingers be given to my three children as a warning to them, as my fingers were the cause of bringing myself to the gallows, and my children to poverty ; and I also request that Mr. E. Collis and Mr. C. Brown (two brother prisoners) will be so kind as to see it done, they knowing which fingers th e y ar e , by their marking them, at my request, with ink." This re quest was complied with by the surgeon. The Paris police have just made seizure at the house of a lady on the Quai des Ormes. near the Arsenal, of a model of what is supposed to have been an infernal machine, In form it resembles a modern-shaped night.table. It is about two feet long and one high, and is constructed of copper. It is so arranged as to contain a great number of barrels, tvhich by their direction, would effect a cross fire. The machine would be fired in the same manner as the machine constructed by Champion, and the explosion of all the barrels would b e simul taneous. It appears that this model has been made for more than 15 years, and that it was constructed for the purpose of being offered for sale to the Government of that per .od, with which to defend the fortifications then projected. The, strictest inquiries are, however, being made into the matter. And fur= ther information is expected from the maker of the rr iachine, who, for some years past, has been residing in England. His sister, at whose house the seizure was made, did not manifest the slightest uneasiness at the cliscoveiT.— Gazette d Tribe 11CCAUX STATE OF TRADE. (From the Leeds Intelligencer of Saturday.) TRADE OF LEEDS.—We regret our inability yet to re port any improvement in the demand for manufactured woolens. In the warehouses little is doing, the wholesale buyers avoiding extensive purchases, in apparent expecta tion of a further fall of prices, and the retail buyers keeping out of the market altogether. The stock of goods is of coarse accumulating, both bulk and finished, but it is not large. The manufacturers have for sonic time made little, and that little will be less, as all are now filling up as much as possible. If the present state of trade continues much longer a greater number of people must be thrown out of employ, and distress of a very serious and aggra vated kind be experienced by them. The manufacturers will shortly have' no option but to stand still ; the limit of prudence is already fully reached, even in the little they are doing. Halifax Market, on Saturday last, was remarkably flat. The attendance of buyers was very scanty. Huddersfield Market, on Tuesday, was extremely dull, both as regards plain cloths and fancy goods. BRADFORD MARKET.—The business transacted at this place on Thursday last was limited in most branches of trade. The attendance of merchants was meagre, and the sales of manufactured goods were proportionately small. The yarn market was almost stationary, but there was rather more business done in the wool market than on the preceding Thursday, more especially in New South Wales short wools ; prices, however, were not sustained. Noils and shorts, too, sold for less money than would have been taken a fortnight ago. HECKMONDWICKE.—The blanket trade continues in a most depressed state, the mills and manufactories being scarcely half employed, with every appearance at present against them. MANCHESTER.—AIthough there was great dulness in the market yesterday the state of things was certainly not worse than on the previous Tuesday. No additional fai lures were spoken of, and it is generally understood that there are in country very large orders both for yarns and goods, which, however, will not be given out until it seems pretty evident that prices have reached their lowest point. —Guardian. ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, APRIL o.—There has been a worse market, if possible, than that of last week, scarcely any business having been done either in flannels or wool. LIVERPOOL COTTON-MARKET, APRIL 15. There has been a fair demand for Cotton throughout the week, which has been freely supplied, though holders, waiting the resort of the deputation to London and advices from America, have not pressed their stocks on the market, which closes at a decline of 1 ,4 d. to V i d. per lb. on the lower qualities of American, while the better are more saleable at last week's quotation. Egyptian continues neglected, and nominal in price. In Brazil Pernam is less freely offered, and commands full prices. Bahia is more saleable, and Marunhams is heavy at former rates. Surat is very limited de mand, and barely supports former quotations. The sales of the week amount to 18,160 bales, including 2,000 American on specu lation, and 1,800 American, SO Pernam, and 20 Bengal for export. 300 bags stained Sea Island and 200 St. Domingo are announced for auction on Friday next. - d. d. 1 d. d. 40 Sea Islands 27 to 30 I Demeraras .... 0 to 0 Stained ditto 0 0 1 80 Peruvians ..... fq 0 2,740 Uplands si 711 300 Laguayras 7 71 2,570 Mobile, &c.... si 8 i 500 Surats .... 9,200 New Orleans... 5 812 20 Benffals ... 360 Egyptians 9 —l3 Carthagenas ... 0 0 1,230 Pernams, &c 8 0 , Manilla 0 0 760 Bahias a 4, 360 M a aranhams 8 93 Barbadoes - i Boweds 7— 7 Bahamas The demand for cotton to-day has been very limited, but the market is tolerably steady, and prices without alteration from yes terday.

It is to be hoped, howeuer, for his own sake, that the clever author has been more guarded in his strictures than on a former occasion, as " standing tar get" is not very pleasant I PYRENEAN SIIEPIIERDS.—The celerity with which the shepherds of the Pyrenees draw their scattered flocks around them is not more astonishing than the process by which they effect it is simple and beautiful. If they are at no great distance from him, he whistles upon them, and they leave off feeding and obey the call : if they are far off and scattered, he utters a shrill cry, and instantly the flock are seen leaping down the rocks and scampering towards him. Having waited until they have mustered round him, the shepherd then sets off on 11s return to his cabin or resting-place, his flock follow ing behind like so many well-trained hounds. Their fine looking dogs, a couple of which are generally attached to each flock, have nobler duties to perform than that of chas ing the flock together, and biting the legs of stragglers ; they protect it from the attacks of the wolves and bears, against whose approach they are continually on the watch, and to whom they at once offer battle. So well aware are the sheep of the fatherly care of these dogs, and that they them selves have nothing to fear from them, that they crowd around them, as if they sought their protection ; and dogs and sheep may be seen resting together, or trotting after the shepherd, in the most perfect harmony. There is no such sight to be witnessed in these mountains as " sheep-driving :" no " know ing little collies" used in collecting the flocks or keeping them from wandering. The Pyrenean shepherd, his dogs, and his flock, seem to understand each others' duties; mutual secu rity and affection are the bonds which unite them. The same confidence subsists between the Pyrenean shepherd and his flock, as that between the shepherd of Palestine and his, de scribed in the parable of the good shepherd, of whom it is said—" He goeth before them, and the sheep follow him, for they know his v9ice."-lifurray's Summer in the Pyrenees. VICE CHANCELLOR'S COURT, ArEIL 15. ANONYMOUS LETTER. • f His HONOUR, at the sitting of the Court, said he hat last evening received an anonymous letter about the Whit field Tabernacles in 'Tottenham -court-road and Moortiel.li, informing him that a dispute which had already been befo. e the Court was again to be brought under his notice. His Honour then remarked upon the gross impropriety of ad dressing to a Judge such letters in favour of one side upon a matter to be submitted to him. PRISONER. Mr. TORRIANO moved that a prisoner who was brought up from Durham Gaol by habeas corpus, should be turned over to the Fleet for contempt in not putting in his answer. The appearance of the prisoner excited very general sympathy. He was a very old man, of an humble station in life, and so bent and feeble as to be unable to stand with out support. He seemed scarcely aware of what was going on. Mr. TORRIANO said the prisoner was arrested and thrown into gaol by the Sheriff of Durham on the 24th of last December, and the habeas carpus was not obtained until the 23d of March. Now, Sir Edward Sugdeu's Act pro vided that the party should be brougl.t to the bar of the Court within thirty days from the time of his being in actual custody, or else that he should be entitled to his dh. charge without payment of costs. His Horioun referred to the Act, and declared the pri soner was not in custody under any process of the Court. He ought to have been long since discharged. The words of the Act were imperative.—The prisoner was immedi ately set at large. RE WATKINS, A PRISONER. Mr. COOPER moved, by permission of the Lord Chan cellor, to make an order absolute for the discharge of George Watkins, a prisoner, arrested on Monday last under an attachment from this Court, as he was on his road from the House of Lords, where he had been attending an appeal as agent, to his residence at Kensington. Mr. BETIIELL, opposition, took a preliminary objec tion that this Court had no jurisdiction ,to interfere. Mr. CooPER remarked it would be absurd to say th:s Court had not power to interfere. Suppose the House of Lords was prorogued for twelve years, as had once hap pened, must the man remain in prison until that Court should meet to decide whether it was a contempt of Court to arrest him ? The Learned Counsel then referred to other authorities in 3 Anstruther and 1 Chitty 5 B. and Adolphus, Lord Denman said "the officer should not dodge too closely."—(A laugh.) His HONOUR said his opinion was Mr. Watkins was en titled to his privilege ; but as it did not clearly appear the officer knew of the privilege at the time of the arrest, the discharge must be without costs. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, APRIL 15. The Judges, who took their scats on the Bench in the full Court, were Lord Denman, Mr. Justice Littledale, Mr. Justice Pattison, and Mr. Justice Coleridge. F. J. N. Rogers, Biggs Andrews, George Chilton, jun .. John Evans, R. B. Crowder, John Jervis, P. Whitiaarsh, and C. P. Cooper, Esqrs., were severally called within the bar as King's Counsel. THE KING V. THE RECORDER OF POOLE. Mr. BINGHAM applied for a rule to show cause why a mandamus should not be issued to the defendant, command ing him to enter continuances, and hear an appeal against a rate. A rate hadb een ordered to be levied to pay the ex pense of carrying into effect the new Municipal Reform Act, and a Mr. Francis Turner gave notice of appeal in the following terms :—" I Francis Turner, being an inha bitant of Poole, and being called on to pay the rate herein after mentioned, hereby give notice that I shall appeal," &e. The 92d section of the Act declared " That if any person shall think himself aggrieved by such rate he shall appeal t' the Recorder, who shall have the power to hear and deter mine the appeal against the rate." It was objected that there was no direct statement in the notice that the appel lant was a party grieved, and that statement was considered by the Recorder, and be refused to hear the appeal on ac count of the want of that statement.—The Court granted the rule. ABBOTT V. THE LONDON AND SOUTHAMPTON RAILWAY COMPANY. Mr. \\Turn moved for a rul., to show cause why an order of Mr. Justice Coleridge, setting aside a judgment signed rgainst the defendants as for want of a plea, should not be rescinded. This was an action brought under 4 and 5 William IV., c. SS, the local Act establishing the Company. By section 10;3 of that Act it was declared that no plaintiff "shall recover for any irregularity in the execution of it, if there shall be a tender of sufficient amends to the party complaining of such irregularity ; and in case no tender shall be made it shall be lawful for the defendant to pay into Court such sum as he thinks will cover the amount of the damage claimed." In this ca4c the defendants had pleaded a tender of amends, but had not accompanied that plea with the payment of any money into Court. The defendants by their plea ad mitted that they had done an injury.—ltule granted. BAIL COURT. ST. LUKE'S CHURCH, CIIELSEA. Mr. CLar.xsoN moved for a rule to show cause why a mandamus should not issue to the Magistrates of Middle sex, in Quarter Sessions assembled, commanding them to hear a certain appeal. By an Act passed in the 59th Geo. 111., cm Lain trustees were appointed who were to erect a church in the parish of St. Luke, Chelsea, and to maintain suitably the Clergyman officiating therein. For this pur pose they were empowered to make rates on the pa r►shioners, as also for repairs to the Church in question, should occasion for them thereafter arise. It was also enacted (by the 99th section of the Act) that the accounts of the trustees should be twice during every year submitted to the auditors of the parish for their approval, and that in. case of any dispute arising on the subject of those accounts an appeal should be lodged by the parishioners before the ..liddlescx Magistrates in Quarter Sessions assembled, whose decision upon them was to be ultimately binding. Now for some time past there had been in the parish considera ble difference of opinion on the subject of the rates levied. for the support of the Church, and an objection was lately raised, on the ground of inaccuracy in the accounts, t the levying of an additional rate that had been imposed, and of that rate being unnecessary. Au appeal was con sequently made by the parties in question to the Quarter Sessions, but the Chairman's construction of the Act did: not in his opinion justify him in receiving the appeal, and. it was accordingly dismissed. The Learned Counsel now-- applied for a mandamus to compel the Justices to hear the: appeal. Rule to show cause granted. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, APRIL 15. The Barons of this Court, after accompanying the other Judges to Westminster Hall in the usual procession, took their seats upon the Bench this day, being the first day or Term, shortly before two o'clock.

Rogers, Andrews, Chelton, Evans, Crowder, Whitmarsh, and Cooper. Mr. Jervis obtained a patent of precedence ; and is succeeded in the post of tub man by Mr. Turner. MAIIIHOTT V. SIIAW. Mr. lIumFREY applied to the Court for a rule to set::: aside the nonsuit, and enter a verdict for the plaintiff in this• cause. It was an action of assumpsit to recover ale stakes deposited with the Cicik of the Course of the Newport_, Pagnell Races ; and at tile trial before Mr. JuV.ice Little dale, at the last Assizes for Northampton, the - plaintiff was:. nonsuited.—Rule refused. lIE ALE V. ERLE. Mr. WATSON applied for a rule to enter -a suggestion oni the roll, to deprive the plaintiff in this ce se of his costs,, under the provisions of the Bath Court rd Requests Act * Both the amount claimed and the residence of the party gave the local Court jurisdiction ; but as judgment hat been allowed to go by default, and final judgment had bees signed, both for the amount claimed and taxed costs, a diffi culty was placed in the way of the present application, to confine plaintiff to the amount of the original debt alone. Mr. Baron PARKE—You may take a rule, but it must be so shaped as to pay the costs incurred since. Rule granted. ARCHES COURT, API:IL 15. This being the commencement of Easter term, prayer* were read by the Chaplain, and the Court was opened wits tale usual solemnities. SCRIVENER V. SCRIVENER.
