COURT OF CHANCERY, AYE 17. SIMPSON V. LORD HOWDEN. Lord Howden has considerable estates on the line pro posed for the York and Rotherham Railroad. On the Bill coming before Parliament his Lordship wished to obstruct its passing, and opposed it before the Committees of the Houses of Lords and Commons. The plaintiffs (who are the Directors and Secretary of the Railroad Company), anxious to secure the success of the Bill before Parliament, entered into an agreement with Lord Howden, that if he would withdraw his opposition to the Bill they would give him five thousand in money, and use their endeavours to get another Bill passed during the ensuing session of Par liament, altering the line, so as to avoid his Lordship's estates ; but if they were unsuccessful in their endeavours to pass the Bill; then that such farther compensation should be given to his Lordship as should be agreed upon between him and the Directors. In May, 1836, the agreement was signed, and the • plaintiffs filed their bill against the de fendant at the beginning of the present year, in which they called upon the Court to stay all proceedings against them, and to order the agreement to be given up to be cancelled, alleging the transaction to be a fraud upon the Legislature and' on the other landholders on the line. Lord Howden demurred to the bill, for want of equity, assigning that if the transaction were illegal a Court of law was the proper tribunal before which to try it. The demurrer came on for argument, when the Master of the Rolls over-ruled it. The SOLICITOR GENERAL contended that Lord Howden had done no more than had been recommended by Com mittees of both Houses of Parliament in many instances. His LORDSHIP would hear the Counsel in support of the demurrer on Wednesday next. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, JUNE 16. COUNT PEPOLI V. LAPORTE. Mr. JACOB moved to dissolve the injunction restraining the defendant from selling the libretto of Malek Add. The case rested partly on the law of copyright, but princi pally upon an allegation that the plaintiff had not fairly communicated all the material facts when he obtained the injunction. His HONOUR said that the injunction must be dissolved, with costs. Mr. KNIGHT pressed for a trial at law, on the copyright question. His HONOUR permitted a trial on condition that the ludgment should abide the order of the Court. SATURDAY, JUNE 17. VESTRIS V. COOPER PULLIBANK. Mr. KNIGHT moved to discharge an order obtained in this cause for dismissing the bill, and also to restrain pro ceedings at law against Madame Vestris. In October last Madame Vestris filed the bill against the defendant, who had an alias Hooper, for an account and injunction to re strain proceedings which he was threatening at law. The Common injunction was obtained, and the defendant put in two defective answers. About May last Madame Vestris became bankrupt. Hooper attempted to prove or to enter a claim, but was rejected, in consequence of the suit, unless he would agree to submit all his accounts to the Commis sioner. In the meantime Hooper and the assignees came to some understanding, and instead of his applying for the customary order for the assignees to elect whether they would adopt the suit, an order was obtained on the 22d of May last, upon notice of motion served upon the assignees only, and with their consent, suggesting that the matters had been since accommodated, and dismissing the bill, with out costs. Of this motion no notice was served on Ma dame Vestris's solicitor, and she was advised by her Coun sel that:she had no right to interfere in it. Shortly after wards an arrangement between Madame Vestris and her creditors who had proved took place, and an order was obtained in the Court of Review with the assent of Ma dame Vestris, and the assignees annulling the fiat. Hooper having got rid of the injunction by the order dismissing the bill immediately arrested Madame Vestris for the alleged balance of his account. From that arrest she was dis charged for some informality, and as she was in momentary apprehension of another arrest, the present motion was made, which, if granted, would have the effect of reviving the injunction. Mr. JACOB opposed the motion, and. insisted the order was perfectly regular. His HONOUR thought this the most unjust thinc , that -had ever occurred. The defendant insisted upon the va lidity of the order that had been obtained, and at the same time wanted to go on at law. He could not conceive any thing more monstrous. The order had been obtained upon a representation that matters had since been accommo dated, and then, it being insisted the order shall stand, the defendant takes advantage of it and insists upon proceed ing at law. The order was originally wrong, and it was a very fit thing it should be discharged at the cost of the de fendant. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JuA? 17. PHILLIPS V. COLE. This was an action upon a promissory note for 501., drawn by the defendant, payable to his own order, and in dorsed by him to one Alvez, and by him to the plaintiff. The defendant pleaded that he had received no considera tion for making the note ; that he had delivered it to Alvez to get it discounted, and could not get it back. Mr. HUMPHREY, for the defendant, said the defendant was a gentleman residing at Brompton, and the action was brought by the plaintiff, a clothier residing in Holywell street, Strand. In January, 1837, Mr. Cole saw an ad vertisement in the newspapers of money to lend ; and really he was surprised, after the exposures which had taken place of those swindlers who advertised, that anybody out of their teens could be found to trust them for one farthing. Application in this case was to be made to Mr. Williams, Duke-street, Portland-place. The plaintiff called, and was introduced to this Mr. Williams, who proposed that he should draw two promissory notes, one for 601., and ano ther for 50/. Williams told him to leave these notes with him, and he would get a friend to discount them, and he received the following acknowledgment Williams ac knowledges to have received of Mr. Cole two promissory notes, one for 50/. at three months, and one for 60/. at six months, for negotiating on terms, of which 10/. to Williams, on Mr. Cole receiving the 110/." The defend ant called two or three times ; he had one bill sent back, because it was on a wrong stamp, and the other he could not get into his hands. The real name of this man Wil liams was Alvez, and that Winter Hart, Richardson, Palmer, and Alvez were one gang ; and he was surprised that the opulent firm of Hart, Richardson, Palmer, and Co., should have brought this action for so small a sum. Alvez had undertaken to Ruthveu to be here to-day, and had said that the gang had deceived him, and he would speak the whole truth, but he had now vanished. The bill bad been obtained by fraud, and that was the only issue they had to try. After hearing evidence, the Jury gave a verdict for the plaintiff. Damages, 51/. ss. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, JUNE 17. SIGGERS V. SNOW, PAUL, AND OTHERS. The plaintiff is a tailor, residing in the Strand, and the defendants are bankers, also residing in the Strand. The action was brought to recover damages, in consequence of the injury sustained by the plaintiff, by reason of the defen dants having refused to pay his check for 30/., although, as he alleged, they had at the time it was drawn 39/. 16s. 3d. in hand. The case, which possessed little interest except to the parties, occupied the greater part of Friday, and the whole of Saturday, down to a quarter-past eight o'clock. The Jury returned a verdict for the defendants. COURT OF EXCIIEQUER, JUNE 17. FASHIONABLE TAILORS.—IMPORTANT DECISION. BUROHART V. HALL AND °TITERS. In this case, the plaintiff, a tailor, carryinc , on business in Cliff or d- street, soug ht t o recover from the defendants, the executors of the late Captain Nesbitt, the sum of 2,154/., being the amount of his bill incurred for articles of wearing apparel during 1828, 1829, and 1830. The de fendants pleaded infancy, to which the plaintiff rejoined, that the articles supplied were " necessaries ;" whereupon issue wasjoined. Mr. ERLE, in stating the case, said that, although the amount of the plaintiff's bill and the 'quantity of clothes supplied to the minor might appear somewhat extraordinary, it must be borne in mind that the deceased, Mr. Nesbitt, was a gentleman probably of a capricious turn of mind, and was a young man who was mingling in the most fashionable society, and was represented as heir to an income amount ing to 7,000/. into possession of which he would come on attaining the age of 21. Many of the articles ordered by Mr.Neshitt were of the most costly and expensive descrip tion ; but the Jury, in determining as to what were " neces saries," that being the sole question at issue, were not to confine themselves to what would merely clothe the de ceased, but what were necessary for a gentleman keeping the company Captain Nesbitt had, and holding a commission in the Life Guards. The whole question, in point of fact, was, were the articles furnished by the plaintiff necessaries or were they not ? Then, taking the habits of a gay young man, who was mixing with the most fashionable of the fa shionable world, into con,ideration, he bad no doubt but PRICE sd. that the Jury would award a verdict to the plaintiff for the whole amount of his demand, every shilling of which, had Captain Nesbitt lived, would have been paid. After evidence had been entered into at considerable length, the jury found a verdict for the defendants. EXCHEQUER CHAMBER. CORNISH AND CO. V. KEENE AND CO. This important patent cause came on on Saturday in the form of " writ of error." It was argued before Chief Justice DENMAN and ten judges. The argument was opened for the defendant by Mr. CURRIE, who quoted many of the old decisions of the Courts. The ATTORNEY-GE NERAL, for the plaintiffs, argued at great length, showing his profound knowledge of the law, it being a mere dry question of law. The Court, after the defendant's Coun sel had replied, was cleared, and the Judges sat in delibera tion, when they decided in favour of the plaintiffs, giving to them double costs. This case, which has been through every Court, is one of great importance to patentees—the defendants hating been defeated in Chancery by injunc tion, Common Pleas in the first trial, and discharge of rule for new trial, and now in Exchequer. The costs in a suit like this are tremendous, and few patentees have either money or inclination to go through it. Our readers will remember this was an infringement of one of Mr. Sievier's patents for India-rubber-webbing by Keene. SHERIFFS COURT, JUNE 17. DE SALIS AND THE GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY COMPANY. In this case, which occupied some hours in investigating, it appeared that the claimants were the sons of the late Count Peter De Salis, who had possessed considerable freehold and other property in the neighbourhood of Hayes. The above company required a portion of the estate for their line, and the claimants appeared as devisees under the probate of the will of the late Count, to seek compensation for the loss of the same. Mr. POLLOCK stated the case, The plaintiffs were the sons of the late Count De Salis, and were possessed of certain freehold land, situate in the parish of Harlington, in Middlesex. A field, forming part of it, bounded on the north by the Grand Junction Canal, was cut asunder by the line of railway running through it, and which field was described in the pla❑ before the jury, and would be known to them by being coloured red, and marked by the letter " B." The jury would have not only to give com pensation for the value of the land as adapted to agricul tural purposes, but to award compensation for the pe culiar and valuable soil it consisted of, known by the name of brick earth. Mr. William Crake, surveyor, of Quebec-street, examined by Mr. AUSTEN. The plans produced were prepared un der his instructions, and were correct. That part of the field coloured red was proposed to be taken by the railway Company, and consisted of five acres, three roods, and thirty-three perches. He had surveyed the land with a view to the present inquiry, and valued it at 594/. 7s. Gd. He considered the land in that situation was worth 1001. per acre as agricultural land. In one part there is a stratum of brick earth, with the nature of which he is acquainted, having formerly been an extensive brickinaker. The rent upon earth for making bricks, per thousand, varies from Is. Gd. to 2s. Gd., that is, independent of grass-rent, which a brickmaker has to pay during the time he occupies the land in making his bricks. He had caused holes to be opened for the purpose of satisfying himself of the quality of the earth, and had put a rent of Is. Gd. per thousand on bricks to be made from it. He bad calculated that twenty millions of bricks might be made from that part of the land coloured red. He had calculated the value of the brick earth itself to be 3,0001., and the deterioration in the value of the land B, by means of severance, at 15s. per acre per annum, which, at thirty years' purchase, would make 1121. 10s. The lots of trees he had valued at 101. Sir WILLIAM FOLLETT addressed the Jury on the part of the Company. The UNDER-SHERIFF summed up. The Jury retired ; and, after three quarters of an hour's deliberation, they re turned into Court, and assessed the damages 1,3161. 17s. 6d. PREROGATIVE COURT, JuxE 17. BARKER V. GODWIN AND BARKER. This is a suit respecting the validity of the will of Mrs. Elizabeth Barker, who died at the age of about eighty years, on the '29th of December last, at Crediton, near Winchester, in the county of Hants. The will, after be queathing a few legacies, gives the whole residue of the property to the only surviving brother of the deceased, by whom it is propounded, and is opposed by several nephew a and nieces, who would be entitled in distributio❑ in case of an intestacy, on the grounds that the deceased was not of testamentary capacity, and that the will was obtained from her through the undue influence of the party princi pally benefitted. The details of the case have been already published. Dr. ADDAMS was again heard this day in opposition to the will, and submitted that it had been fraudulently ob tained. After hearing Dr. HAGGARD, The Learned JUDGE expressed his intention of giving judgment in the next Session. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Juxt: 16. Thomas Liley was opposed by Mr. WOODROFFE on the part of a creditor named Boulter, and supported by Mr. CooKE. This case presented features of hardship. The insolvent had been a stage-coachman, driving a coach out of Birmingham. He had saved money, had his comforts around him, and some time ago he was called off his coach to witness, as he understood, a paper ; lie put his name to it, without knowing its contents. Subsequently it turned out that he had become liable for five hundred pounds, haviag signed a warrant of attorney as the principal to that amount, and not as a witness. His property was sold, and realised 133/. He took advice on the point, and came up to London, in order to move the Court of King's Bcnch to vacate the judgment entered up, on the ground of fraud. For that purpose affidavits were drawn, and the Court about to be moved, when the insolvent was arrested by the opposing creditor, and no further proceed ings were adopted. The insolvent petitioned the Court, stating he had only three creditors, and his insolvency had been occasioned by becoming liable in the manner stated. Mr. Commissioner BOWEN stated that no one could feel more strongly than he did for the poor man, and ordered his immediate discharge. The poor fellow, rho wept at the recital of his misfor tunes, was discharged accordingly. As the publication of " The Standard Novels," by Mr. Bentley, of New Burlington-street, goes on, its already extensive popularity, no less than the interest of the collec tion, increases. The series embodies the finest works of the great masters of modern fiction ; consequently, there will be found in it all the variety comprised in the world of romance, such as the national stories of Cooper (author of " The Pilot," &c.), the eloquent and vivid painting of Bulwer, the comedy of Hook, the granduer of Beckford, the Oriental pictures of Hope and Moricr, the intense interest of Godwin, the fami liar portraiture of life of Miss Austen, the grace and humour of Washington Irving, the truth and originality of Galt, the force of Banirn, the historical romance of James (author of " Darnley"), the vivid stories of Grattan, the exquisite nar ratives of the Misses Lee, Mrs. Brunton, Mrs. Shelley, the Miss Porters, and the military recitals of Maxwell (author of " Stories of Waterloo"). To these are added, the choicest productions of Victor Hugo, Manzoni, Madame de Steel, Schiller, Chateaubriand, and other foreign writers. All the works are the exclusive copyrights of the proprietor, who, iu publishing them in the present form, with prefaces and notes by the respective authors, has furnished to the world the best and cheapest body of romance extant. ALGIERS AFTER THE RHANIADAN.—" Shortly afterwards the Rhamadan, the long lent of the Mahonietans, ended; and for some days subsequently nothing was to be seen but the Moors and -Arabs, dirty and ragged at other times. in grand gala in all the streets, attired in handsome, variegated dresses. When acquaintances meet, they embrace and kiss each other's shoulders very affectionately ; the lower classes execute all kinds of dances ; and young men drive outside the gates in a sort of low carriage, the prettiest, cleanest, little Moorish boys, who at this time abound in the place. It ap peared to me a quiet, amiable custom, and it gave great joy to the children. The contrast was striking with the dirty, dis gusting crowds of ordinary days, when one requires ten eyes to avoid being run over by lin ass, or a basket of vegetables, a long plank, or a slaughtered sheep, carried on men's heads. The most noisy place, however, is the Jewish quarter, through which often there is no passing. Here hundreds of these chil dren of Israel, in a state of disgusting filth, and with deafen ing cries, offer their wares for sale, not alone in their shops, but personally decorated with them from head to foot; and not one of them cries Make way,' but rushes blindly forward right or left, like wandering mice, which, you know, avoid no obstacle."—•Seuiilasso in Africa, by t e German Prince. THE WAR IN SPAIN.—Mr. Colburn, of Great Marlborough street, has just published a volume under the title of " Spain, and the Seat of War in Spain," by Herbert Byng Hall, Esq., late Captain of 7th Royal Mitish Fusileers, containing a detilil of the most important transactions which have occurred during this eventful contest. As proceeding from the pen of an officer of Captain Hall's ability, and an eye-witness of the scenes described, the work must be regarded as a valuable chronicle of the remarkable events which have lately taken place in the seat of war, and of which the public have hitherto received but a confused and necessarily contra dictory account. The book deserves the attentive perusal of all who take an interest in Spanish affairs, We invite public attention to the following abl , i article from the Allgenzeine Zeitung on the subject c the capture and confiscation of the Vixen by Russia.. Notwithstanding the evident partiality of the writer, and the ingenuity with which he distorts facts, where_ on to found a justification of what the most enlight ened jurists have pronounced an infraction of the law of nations, it is plain that he relies more upon the timidity 'of the British Cabinet for the consemation of the peace of Europe, than upon its conviction of the justice of the Czar's pretensions. This is unfortu nate; and if the opinion become general, will not fail to expose our flag to fresh insults. Such a conse quence of the conduct of England towards Russia, was, however, foreseen and pointed 'out to Lord Pal merston from the moment it was resolved to take no part in the Polish struggle. Having sown the wind, we now reap the whirlwind. Among the questions which now excite the attention of the nations of Europe, that of the seizure of the Vixen stands in the first rank. The circumstances are well known —the motives and connection of the affair not quite so well —as, in consequence of some recent declarations on the part of Lord Palmerston, who approved the objects of the voyage, it would appear as if the English judges were about to be summoned in .consequence, to form a sort of Areo pagus, to deliberate upon the right of nations, and upon European affairs in general. But as Russia would not sub mit to the sentence of such a court, we think England would not open it ; so that there remains to the owners of the Vixen but one possibility to recover a portion of the damage they have sustained; which is to throw themselves on the mercy of the Emperor. They would thus, like Mr. Churchill, at Constantinople—if we may be allowed the comparison—be in the first place well be-cudgelled, and in the second loaded with presents. A well-informed correspondent from the Lower Elbe has already dwelt ably upon the question in the columns of the Altgemeine Zeitung ; but he has not Done back in his commmunica tions to the treaty of Adrianople, but has in preference grappled with the question of the blockade, a very difficult one, and which leads to quite different results. The matter should, however, be looked upon in all its bearings, if we wish to discover its true complexion. All the ques tions which it raises, find their solution in the proportion which the territory of the Abascians bears to the whole country, as it was on their coast that that rash deed (the blockade) took place. The Abascians, who, to the num ber of 40,000 families, inhabit the western skirts of the Caucasus, and the valleys which lie between that mountain chain and the sea coast, are descended from the aboriginal inhabitants of the land, and have ever been iubject or tri butary to the Bvzantians, or Turks. They were converted to Christianity by the former, and to Mahomedanism by the latter, without ever having been very deeply imbued with the principles of either. The Turks occupied three points upon their coast— Anapa, Sudschuk-Kale, and Soghum-Kale, which they held for the facility of carrying on a traffic in slaves from the Caucasus, who were for ti. most part taken in the wars between the different tribes. The female captives, remarkable for their beauty, often fetched a high price, and made this commerce ex tremely prof table. The Abascians had possession of all the remainder of the coast, and fed their flocks unmo lested, even under the very walls of these three towns. Kuba, at the mouth of the Onzil, Hori, Isgeur (once a populous and wealthy town), Dioskurias, Drink, Psat, and others, were left freely to the Abascians, with the exception of a small tribute which they paid, not to the Turks, but to the Persians. They lived by the cultivation of their fields, and gardens, and the breeding of cattle, the produce of which, especially honey, wool, and skins, they exchanged for various commodities brought to them by sea, especially for salt, of which article there is a great scarcity in the Caucasus. After the Russian power had extended itself to their border-stream, the Kuban, and after The Mingralians and Georgians had made good their footing in the Caucasus, it became of the greatest consequence to the Russians to possess the line of coast, not only because their possession of it would block out their enemy in the Cau casus from the sea, but because it would open a more con venient passage to their own trans-Caucasian provinces, by sparing them the passage over the mountains, and through the territories of the numerous hostile tribes, by whom every step they took was contested. They in conse quence took the opportunity, during the war with the Porte, which was ended by the treaty of Bucharest in 1812, to seize hold of the three towns in Abascia which we have already mentioned, and which had been abandoned by the Turks from their inability any longer to defend them. It is true that the sixth article of this treaty stipulates that the Russians, into the heart of whose empire Napoleon had at this time penetrated, should give up all their conquests from the Turks in Asia ; but, notwithstanding, that the possession of these towns was looked upon in Russia, espe cially by the army, as of the utmost importance, the Em peror Alexander, rather than incur the reproach of the non-fulfilment of the article, and of ingratitude towards a Power that made peace with him when the French were in possession of Moscow, took upon himself to withdraw his garrisons from the Abascian coast. This fulfilment of the treaty, however, laid the basis of a renewed feeling of hos tility on the part of the Porte, which was increase by the Greek insurrection, and ultimately led to the war which was brought to a conclusion by the treaty of Adrianople. By this treaty the Porte abandoned these towns to the Russians—not indeed by name, but the stipulation was contained in the fourth article, which gave the coast of the Black Sea, from Anapa to St. Nicola, that is to say, the ;hole of Abascia, to Russia. Since that time Russia has acted as the lawful possessor of the territory in question, and has founded many establishments ; among other Redout-Kale, which has been declared a free port, and which at one tim:3 promised to become the staple mart of the trade with Tiflis. Owing to some ill-judged custom-house regulations, its importance has since de creased, and the trade of the place has been transferred to 'l'rapezant. The question now is, has Russia or not a right to the possession of this coast ? It is clear that Turkey had the power to cede to Russia, by the treaty of Adrianople, the three points in question which she possessed, and could not, moreover, if it had been her interest to do so, have ceded the hills, vales, coasts, and havens of Abascia, which she did not possess, any more than the man in the moon. The Russians, then, are justly in possession of Anapa, Soghum-Kale, aad Sudschuk-Kale, and occupy these places as England does Gibraltar, without pretending to be in pos session of Spain, or of points on the west coast of Africa, or without pretending to any right at all over the coast of Africa. But perhaps Russia is de facto in possession, and founds her right in conquest? Such a claim has at least never been promulgated in Europe. Russia cAnnot scud her caravans or make her military roads to Tiflis through the convenient lands of Abascia to the sea, but is obliged to penetrate over the mountains for that purpose. The 'Abascians are the mas ters of their own country as before, and the Russian flocks can only pasture under the protection of the cannons of Anapa. The garrisons are shut up in the toww, and single divisions, when they carry on any hostilities beyond their walls, generally have the - worst of it. In the midst of this state of things, the Vixen arrived at Soghum-Kale, a town originally Turkish, and for several days carried on trade and intercourse with the ❑atives. Russia, who came. into pos session of the coast at the end of a very long and hardly- contested war, would, if such practices were allowed, be driven out of her possessions. Russia, who was Le:ther de jure nor de facto in possession of Abascia, held only certain positions, originally Turkish, which had become hers, and in which she maintained garrisons and carrial on trade. What then appears the real state of the matter? Russia, at war with the inhabitants of this line of coast, maintain:',l her pretensions by force of arms. She had, in consequence, as a belligerent power, the undoubted right of blockading the coast of her enemy, whether she considered them in the light of rebels, or looked upon them as a foreign nation. She, in consequence, ordered the blockade, and contented her self by giving notice two years since that such was the fact to the several ambassadors of foreign powers at the Court of the Sultan. England, however, did not make it officially known in the Gazette, whether because her Mi nisters thought that the notification had not arrived itt the ordinary course, or that it was not of s ufficient im portance. The blockade, however, did not de ju-e exist as far as England was concerned, and Lord Palmerston contented himself by referring the captain of the Vixen to the Gazette when .he asked for information. Another question is, whether the blockade of this coast actually existed, and was put into effectual operation ? The sea along the coast is extremely stormy, changeable, and in secure, and the land overrun by hostile tribes. An actual blockade of GO mile's of such a coast was impossible. A, few points only could be shut up, and these only at certain times, so that a blockade of the Abascian coast would not be much better than a blockade on paper, as our corre spondent from the Lower Elbe very justly remarked in one of his communications. Here another question presents itself. Russia explains that at one point of her Abasciau possessions she had notified certain regulations to guard against the introduction of the plague, and certain prohi bited articles of commerce. These regulations the Vixen had directly infringed by her intercourse with the Abas cians. Here, then, was a thrgifold breach-.a breach of the blockade, of the sanitory laws, and o f the custom house laws ; and of the two last there could be no doubt whatever that the Vixen was guilty. Either of thess Offences was enough to bring her within the jurisclietie!i of Russia, after the explanation of the St. Peter.cbufg T i Gazette of the a rrival-ot.the Vixen in a harbour frequentel by the Abascians, of the intercourse of her crew with tha SUN INN AND POSTING HOUSE, BRADFORD, YORKSHIRE. JOHN HARRISON, (late of the KING'S HEAD, BINGLEY,) respectfully announces to his friends and the Public, that he has recently entered on the above old esta blished House, and trusts by unremitting care in every department of his business, to merit a share of their support. In inviting the notice of Commercial Gentlemen to the conve niences connected with the situation of this Inn, J. H. assures them that as soon as his intended alterations are complete, he feels confident that the cleanliness and comfort of the sleeping apart ments, the excellency of the viands and wines, combined with most diligent and respectful attention, will not fail to elicit their general approbation, and he respectfully assures the Public at large, that no exertion on his part shall be wanting to establish a house of first rate reputation, and deserving of liberal patronage. _ *,„,* Neat Post Chaises, and Coaches, to all parts.

THE LAST ASCENT OF THE NASSAU BALLOON. —At an early hour on Saturday morning Mr, Green returned to Vauxhall-gardens from his aerial trip of the preceding day. Mr. Green states that himself and his fellow-voyagers effected an easy descent in a turnip field at Offleyhole farm, three miles distant from the market town of llitchin, Hertfordshire, and thirty-seven miles from London. The farmer gave his unex pected vests a hearty welcome, and generously waved all claim for damage done to the growing crops. Mr. Green says the trip was a pleasant one, and highly gratified his com panions, to most of whom all the varied changes of scenery had the delightful charm of novelty ; but to the experienced aeronaut no unusual phenomena presented themselves. By a skilful manoeuvre the balloon, in passing over the metropolis, was kept depressed below the lowest stratum of clouds, so that the aeronauts had a clear and interesting view of the great cities of London and Westminster, and their suburbs. The course in which the balloon was carried was nearly due north, slightly inclining to the west. The travellers passed over the Horse Guards, the new National Gallery, the Colosseum, and thence were wafted over Highgate, the balloon being still kept so much depressed that at the last place Mr. Green was able to distinguish his own cottage and garden. Barnet and Hatfield were afterwards successively brought under view. They afterwards began gradually to mount above the clouds, and attained an altitude of 4,000 feet, when preparations were made for a descent, which was accomplished at half-past seven o'clock in the evening, in the manner and place before de scribed. Mr. Green states that it is in contemplation to make an ascent for scientific purposes. On Wednesday morning, Mr. J. Denman saw the body of a man suspended in R .- field at Coed Helen, near Car narvon. He immediately cut him down, but life was extinct. In the pocket of the deceased was a paper, on which he had written, " My last. I have from my infancy lived in a state of ease and affluence. I have sold a landed estate and other property left me by my ancestors for upwards of 6,0001., and I have lost all my money in business and speculating in vari ous ways, and am now reduced tipi state of poverty, and can not live after this." All that card be learned of the unfortu nate man was, that he took up his lodging at a house at Car narvon, where lie only slept, but did not eat in the place. No clue whatever could be found to his name, or whence he came. —North Wales Chronicle. ' A gun has just been invented in America, by which thirty shots can be made in a minute.

On Saturday morning, Covent-Garden Market was well supplied with an immense quantity of green peas and strawberries, which arrived on board the Belle Eliza French steamer, from 13oulogne, on Friday evening, at Freshwater wharf, Thames-street.
