Of the entire solvency or - Messrs. Brown and Co., we believe we may venture to affirm that no question whatever is entertained by the Bank Directors ; and, notwithstanding that the amount of their acceptances is large, such has been the strict regularity of their proceedings that not a particle of accommodation paper is to be found among the number, almost the whole mass of them having been given for manufactured goods shipped to the liiked States. Messrs. Brown and Co. have been required to give security for the advances made to them, as was the case with the three great London houses wllo suspended payment a short time ago, namely, Messrs. Thomas Wilson and Co., Messrs. George Wildes and Co., and Messrs. T. Wiggin and Co. We stated two days since that the leading merchants in the City, being of opinion that our commercial embarrass ments would very shorly be found to be at an end, con templeted making something like a public declaration to the,. effect. We are now informed that this is still the in t4eition, and that, from the great confidence they have in the ability of the several houses we have just enumerated to pay the whole ot . their debts in full, that a memorial to the Bank of England is now in the course of signature, re spectfully calling upon the Directors to re-consider the cases of the parties, with a view to placing them in the same position that they have placed Messrs. W. and J. Brown and Co., and which it is felt that they are bound in common consistency to do, the circumstances of the various applicants being precisely similar. It isetionsidered that as there has in each instance been ample property to cover every possible claim that the Benk could have upon them, and that as time was in reality all that was wanted, none of their acceptances aught to have been permitted to be returned. What the Directors may say to a representation of this nature, sup= ported, as it doubtless will be, by all the commercial opu lence and intelligence of the City, we are not prepared to anticipate, but the. crisis is one of a most extraordinary kind, and we may venture, at all events, to insure it the utmost attention. 'We are sorry to have to announce the failure yesterday at Liverpool of the highly-respectable mercantile house of Bolton, Ogden, and Co. This firm were largely engaged in the American trade, and their stoppage appears to have been consequent. upon that of the American houses in London. Messrs. Bolton and Co. have an abundance of assets to cover their liabilities, and here is, therefore, ano ther instance of parties in good credit being compelled to suspend payment merely from the temporary withdrawal of the ordinary banking facilities of the country.

LIVERPOOL-WEDNESDAY. The sales of cotton to-day amount to 2,500 bags. The market is dull, and prices arc hd. lower than at the close of the last week. This depression may be attributed chiefly to the extremely heavy imports since Monday. During, the last two or three days at least 50.000 bags have come to hand. Besides American, from to 71d., the sales consist 01200 Pcrnam, Bd. to 98d. ; 50Bahia, 6d. ; an d 100 Surat, aid. . This day has not passed over without the failure of a large and respectable house in the American trade, whose stoppage has excited a feeling of surprise as well as regret. The house in ques ti on — t h e pr i nc i pa l partner i n which is a member of the Town Council, and possesses the reputation of being one of the most clear-headed men of business in Liverpool —has for some time past been drawing its imports from the United States within a comparatively narrow compass, in anticipation of the commercial crisis which has unhappily overtaken us. But, while restrictity , its imports from America, the house has been speculating largly in the purchase of corn both in this country and on the Continent, a considerable portion of w hich has been shipped to the United States ; and from the unfavourable turn which everything has taken in America arises its present tempo rary embarrassment and stoppage. The stoppage is, how ever, merely temporary, for the affairs of the house present a very encouraging aspect COURT CIRCULAR. The Palace was thronged thewhole of yesterday to a greater degree than on any former day. Among the inquirers were the Austrian Ambassador, the Turkish Ambassador, accompanied by M.

THE ARTISTS' GENERAL BENEVO- LENT INSTITUTION. The anniversary dinner of this excellent charity takes place to-morrox, at which Lord Francis Egerton will pre s►de. We have often adverted to this Institution with a view of furthering its oi:j!cts ; and we know not that we can do better than by copying the Address of the Di. rectors to the publication containing the list of contribu tions since its establishment. : " Antntzss.—Two Charitable Funds have been established for purples relative to those who have been unfortunate in the practice• of the Fine Arts ; one entitled, The Artists' Bene volent Fund, the other, The Artists' General Benevolent In stitution. " Their titles being so nearly similar, the Directors of the Artists' General Benevolent Institution consider it to be their duty, and necessary to the furtherance of their iraminliate oh, ject, to ex pl a i n t h e diff erence that exists between the . ples upon which these two Charities are founded, in 'LI-der that the public may be fully enabled to discriminate merits, b; 1 bestowing their b ounty an d r e :neir different "atronage on either. The first established was Tha in 1810. Th at F un d i s exelusiv Benevolent Fund, appropriated to the relief of the Widows and Orphans of a S:ociety of Artists, associated for the laudable purpose of mutually assisting each other, du ring the pressure of 'sickness, or the infirmities of old age, under the name o r . the The Artists' Joint Stock Fund. It does not afford relief to any Artist, however great his merit, or un fortunate his circumstances : nor can it afford aid to the Wi dows or families of those who died previous to its foundation. It has since been incorporated, by Royal Charter, with The Artists' Joint Stock Fund, under the name of The Artists' Fund, but still specifically preserving itsown name and object. 11 As the principle upon which the Artists' Benevolent Fund is founded thus precludes the possibility of its affording aid to distressed Artists, or to the Widows and Children of those who have not subscribed to the Artists' Joint Stock Fnnd, (and many Artists, from advanced age, from blindness, or from impaired health, could not be admitted members of the Joint Stock Fund) the expediency of establishing an Institu tion without such restrictions, for the purpose of extending relief to distressed meritorious Artists, as well as to their fa milies, soon became evident. " The Artists' General Benevolent Institution was there fore founded in 1914. Its object is to extend relief to all dis tressed meritorious Artists, whether subscribers to its fund or not, " whose works are known and esteemed by the public, as well as to their Widows and Orphans," merit and distress constituting the claims to its benevolence. " For the attainment of means to effect this desirable end, the Directors of The Artists' General Benevolent Institution appeal to the liberality of the public ; respectfully endeavour ing to impress upon'the minds of the Patrons of the Fine Arts the consideration, that, as the object of this Institution is so nearly unrestricted, and consequently so extensive, it stands in need'of great and extensive support."

WINDSOR CASTLE, FRIDAY, JUNE 16. The KING has had a good night, and the symptoms of his MAJESTY'S disorder are less urgen His MAJESTY is feeble, but his attention to busi ness has scarcely been interrupted. (Signed) ' HENRY HALFORD, M. J. TIERNEY, WM. FRED. CHAMBERS. DAVID DAVIES. It is with great pleasure that we lay before our readers this day the annexed account of his Majesty's health, which,, it will be seen, has undergone a favourable change. Our correspondent, who has manfully told the truth from the beginning, and who, by so doing, has effectually ex posed the stuff that official bulletins are made of, commu nicates this gratifing intelligence—gratifying so far as it goes—in a tone rather of anxious than of confident expecta tion as to the result. Concurring with him most cordially in the hope he has expressed, we cannot but participate with him also in the apprehension that qualifies its ardour. Certain it is, however, that the King is better. May it still be our pleasing task to record that he is better and better, until we can say that be is well. WINDSOR, 11 O'CLOCK, THURSDAY NIGHT. We rejoice in being able to announce that, contrary to all expectation, and almost against all hope, his Majesty has passed the last twenty-four hours in comparative case. Whether this respite from his sufferings warrants a hope of his eventual recovery, is more than we can say. We have unfortunately too much reason to apprehend the con trary. The Court, however, seem to anticipate the hap piest result. The pony phaetons and saddle horses were in full employment to-day in both parks, and all seemed as gay and cheerful as though there was no fear of a relapse. We earnestly hope their anticipations may be realized, and that William the Fourth may yet live many years. As a proof that his Majesty felt himself much better, it is a fact—and a fact which has excited some surprise here— that his first act to-day here was conferring the honour of knighthood on his two medical attendants, Drs. Chambers and Davies. They were suddenly summoned to his pre sence, and Sir Horace Seymour also, as a witness of the ceremony. Sir Henry Halford did not arrive at the Castle until - some hours after the cer emo ny h a d b een p er f orme d. Prince Ernest of Philippsthal arrived to-day from Brus sels, accompanied by the Hon. Captain Curzon. The Duke of Sussex also arrived, and remained with the King nearly three hours, when his Royal Highness returned to Ken sington Palace. Up to this hour, eleven o'clock, the King remains in the same satisfactory state.—Aforning Herald. It is not in our power to state that there is any essential change, since our announcement of yesterday, in the condi lion of his Majesty. All the communications we have re ceived concur, however, with the bulletin of the physicians, in conveying the gratifying asEurance that since Wednesday night the Royal patient has experienced some alleviation of his sufferings.-111orniny I'ost. WINDSOR, THURSDAY, 11 O'CLOCK, P.M. A very general impre ss i on p reva il e d at Wind sor t hi s evening that n great improvement had taken place in his Majesty's health in the course of the afternoon. It is known that for many years his Majesty has been subject to an attack of hay fever, from vzhich he has gene rally suffered for several weeks. His present illness having already extended over nearly two-thirds of the time to which this attack has usually been protracted, hopes are cherished here that the present change is the commencement of a progressive improvement in the state of his health. It need hardly be stated, that but for an impression that his Ma jesty's disorder is not of a character so serious as was origin ally supposed, even the most sanguine would reject The con solatory anticipations to which we have adverted, and which we earnestly hope may prove to be not destitute of foun dation.—Times. By the arrival of the packet-ship Sheield, at Liver pool, from the United States, we have received New Yolk papers to the 27th ult. inclusive. Their con tents arc more favourable than in our most sanguine moments we had ventured to anticipate. The mone tary panic had then in a great degree subsided ; and among all classes a determination existed of maintaining public credit. 2.'he small paper currency circulated freely, though at first great individual objections were made against the substitn.'2on of the paper promises of civic corporations the silver coin previously cur rent This rneasuic had enabled the Banks to make prena t r ,. .•:ions for meeting the demands of their Euro correspondents by large remittances in specie. The Sheffeld brought about 20,0001., the receipt of which at Liverpool prevented the suspension of pay ments by a highly respectable house ext ens i ve ly con nected with the American trade. The New York Journal of Commerce of the 26th ultimo, states that specie would be shipped, off by all the packets bound for Europe for several weeks to come. It was then in the act of being conveyed in large sumi from the Banking establishments in the interior, and as soon as received at New York, was to be remitted, the greater part to pay off' the demands made upon the States by the merchants of England and France. This would have the effect o f keeping up the price of cotton, the sale of which would enable the Banks, then _rid of all foreign encumbrances, to mime cash payments 'without loss to themselves or great injury to the people. But while too much praise cannot be bestowed on the people of the United States for the promptitude with which they have come forward to avert so awful a calamity as that of national bankruptcy, it is not to be expected that any decision on their part will enable them to pass so trying an ordeal wholly unscathed. In spite of all that can be done, the paper currency will be depreciated in value by being made a substitute for small silver coins, because it will be impossible so to regulate its issue as only to meet the exact demand for it ; and because, in -the next place, the mote affluent will purchase specie with it to hoard at advanced prices. The New York Globe states as a positive fact, that the best bank-notes are now ten per cent. below specie—the depreciation in the nokiiinel 'Valbt i'estated from the panic ; an( ttl"; ttro Ilumber of notes in circulation amounts to, one hundred and sixty Millions of dollars,, the Ancrican public has alreattii Ostaiea z kiss equal to fifteen mil l3he hundred thousand dollars. The liabili ties of the Suites to Great Britain alone are supposed to exceed fifty millions of dollars, and tli , v2uc met speed 4, at -.‘.•hateVel inconvenience to the Ame people. In the mean time sonic hcuscs must go, and of course many will ,uff2.r in consequence, though not to the extent at first apprehended. The bubble speculators cannot much longer stand the se vere test to Aich they arc at .present subjected, and, as a matter of course the aerial projects by which they contrived to gull the public will be dissipated by thn first breath of inquiry. The more sober-minded Americans confidently trust that the events now in Frogress will damp the rage of all classes for over-trading and excessive speculation. In a country where honest industry would ensure com fort and respectability, agriculture is shamefully ne glected in the pursuit of schemes for the amassing of wealth without toil—at the cost of a credulous public. This is most disgraceful in a moral, and most dange rous in a political and commercial point of view. Speculation in the United States has degenertved into a species of gambling which, unless checked, must eventually ruin the moral character of the people. Th's most fatal of commercial vices begets idleness, fo t rsiml:rudence, encourages men to regard each other as their prey, and after destroying every vestige of prin ciple, perishes with the unhappy country that suffers it to take root in the hearts of its population. Since the date of the last arrivals, the United States Government has taken no very active part in the re moval of the difficulties,save by authorising the Collector of the New York Customs to receive paper instead of specie in payment of dues demanded by the Treasury. As it was expected that a similar order would be ad dressed to all the.other Collectors, the news was hailed as an important concession by the whole of the mer cantile body. It will certainly be productive of the greatest advantage to all classes. The advices from New Orleans are to the 19th ult. They arc still more favourable than the accounts from New York. Cotton was rising in price, and every thing looked firm. We trust the Batik of England will make every effort to sustain the credit of such American Banking houses as arc merely suffering from a temporary want of specie. Most of them, now in the greatest difficul ties, are not only solvent, but affluent ; though the circumstances in which the follies of others have placed them render it impossible for them to employ their re sources in extricating themselves, save at an immense sacrifice. These establishments ought to be sup ported as speedily as possible. The Secretary for the Treasury has addressed the following Circular to the various Deposit Banks throughout the Union : Treasury Department, May 18, 1837. Sta,--As the painful informatio❑ has reached this Depart ment, through the public press, that your bank has suspended specie payments, the object of this letter is to learn, officially, if the fact has happened, and /o receive such explanations concerning the reason for it, and the future course of your business, as it will be apparent, are so important to this De partment to know, under the existing liabilities and relations between you and the Government. While, on the one hand, it is deemed proper that such in dulgence should be granted by this department to its former fiscal agents, as they may request, consistently with the laws and the present state of the Treasury, it must be apparent, on the other hand, that nothing can be granted which is likely to endanger the safety of the public funds, and other important public interests. The imperative provisions of the act of June, 1836, make it the duty of this department to discontinue ordering any further sums of public money to be placed with the deposit banks, af. ter suspending specie payments. And hence you are notified, that no more can thus be deposited in your institution, pro.. vided such a failure to redeem your notes has actually oc curred. It is also made my duty, as soon as practicable, to select other depositories, and place with them the money of the United States in your possession, as well as the accruing revenue ; but the department will endeavour to draw *ut the funds in your hands by warrants and transfers, reasonable in their amount and in the periods of their payment. Such warrants and transfers, it is trusted, you will at all times be anxious and able to meet, in a manner satisfactory to all con cerned ; not only with a view to fulfil faithfully your contract and relieve the Treasury and its creditors from embarrassments and losses, but to exonerate yourselves and sureties from con sequences equally injurious, inevitable, and unpleasant. I trust, further, that you will continue to regard it your duty, while any public Money remains in your possession, to forward regularly all the returns and statements w hich are re qtured by your agreement—the mutual advantages from doing y hick cannot fail to be obvious. The department will also feel much obliged, if you will fur.. nish, as early as practicable, replies to the following inqui ries, in order that it may be in possession of such intelligence from you, in an authentic form, as will be useful to the com munity and the States, and very material for regulating properly the future measures of the Treasury. Those in. quiries are : Ist. Whether you expect to resume specie payments soon, and what mode you propose to take fully and seasonably to indemnify, secure, and satisfy the Government and the public ereditors for any breach of your agreement and bond ? 2. Whether, if you do not expect to resume specie pay ments soon, any particular time for it hereafter has yet been decided on, and what special efforts or arrangements you in tend to make for that very important object ? I am, respectfully, your obedient Servant, LEVI WOOD BURY, - Secretary of the Treasury. To the Cashier of - Bank. The Portland Cemetery Bill, which has already passed through Committee in the House of Commons, is appointed to be read a third time to-night. We trust that this measure—which, by the bye, has not been as vigilantly watched as it should have been— will meet with a vigorous opposition, for it contains several obnoxious clauses, and, among, them, one em powering, the Company to enclose lands in the parishes of Hampstead and Marylebone, which will enable them to take a portion of Primrose-1011 or the Chalcot estate, and the open fields northward of the metropolis. Now when we state that the lands thus proposed to be enclosed are almost the only open spots now left: to the inhabitants of the northern quarter of London, who have from time immemorial been in the habit of resort ing to them for the purposes of fresh air and healthful recreation—when we state this, we have, we think, stated quite enough to induce eve!) , Hon. Member to -give the Portland Cemetery Bill his most uncompro mising Oppo s iti o n. Wh a t new Cemeteries do we want in the neighbourhood of London ? At this present moment there arc not less than seven on the tapir, Bills for which have either passed, or are on the eve of passing, the House of Commons, just as if it was the duty of Parliament to legislate for . the Dead, rather than the Living I Sir ANDREW Ac- Nr:w's proposal for purifying our souls to the utter discomfiture of our bodies, and forcing us into sanctity by a stern process of starvation, absurd as it is, is not half so absurd as this, which actually goes to deprive the Living of the fresh air of the green fieMs, in order that the 13ead may reap the benefit of a genteel and picturesque burial-place I But the whole thing i s so ridiculous in theory, and so unjust in practice, that it is impossible it can ever pass into law. The Metropolitan Members must bestir themselves, and oppose it tooth and nail ; hearing in mind that no Cemetery, be it as comely even as that of Pere la Chaise, can compensate the 'hard-worked mechanic or operative fur the loss of those cheerful, airy, green fields which he has been accust ome d to ramble through from hi s childhood. On Sundays, throughout the spring an d summer, Primrose-hill and its neighbourhood are thronged by thousand s of the labouring classes, who in the gin -shop ; otherwise might be tippling and yet now, forso o th, th e y are to be excluded fro m t hi s sylvan district, in order that the Dead may be buried gen teelly, and time revenues of a CompanY be ben e fi tte d b y such a handso me p rocess o f interment'. Betwee n Si r AN DREW AGNEW'S Bill, which prevents him from eat ing or d r i n ki ng on S un d a y, and this new Cemetery Bill, which prevents him from walking, the poor man is like to have a blessed time of it ! We insert e l sew h ere . a letter from Mr. Cn (LDS, o f liungay, accompa n i e d w ith an interesting R e p ort o f the proceedings which took place a few days ago before the Magistrates of Ipswich, when three Dissenting ministers were summoncd for refusing to pay a Church rate. We may, in the first place, observe that we do not agree with our respected Correspondent in his se vere strictures on the conduct of the Government with regard to the Church-rate question. There is as little good policy as justice in accusing Ministers of " vacil lation and indifference," when it is evident that they have done not only a great deal more than they THE SUN, LONDON, PIITD" JUNE M 1837. 13ELOI AN I.

In connection with this subject, and as affording another specimen of the persecuting spirit of priestly power in whatever shape it clothes itself, we beg the attention of our readers to an article which appears in another column, headed " fitawlin - .;. Case," and which we have copied from the York Courant. Here a Reverend brother, one JENKINS by name, first com mits an act of aggression by taking violent possession of a,rate-book which did not belong to him, and be cause the book is snatched from his hand and restored to its lawful possessor, the overseer, this meek and humble teacher of Gospel charity—this weekly incul cator of ChriStian forbearance, in 'order to show his flock the prac!ical difference between precept and example—drags the ,restorer of the book into the Spi 'lila] Court on a charge of " smiting," while others who took his part, and spoke their opinions freely, are lugged into the same holy office, to answer for the heinous crime of " brawling in a Church I" Two or three of JENKINS'S toad-eaters go before a Magis trate, and swear to the smiting and brawling ; their depositions are transferred into the Ecclesiastical Court, and without further inquiry—without the in tervention of a jury, or even the examination of a single witness, the gentlemen against whom these iniquitous proceedings were taken, are sentenced to be imprisoned —they have actually been incarcerated in York gaol— and to pay a fine of 3251. under the name of " costs." We arc not sorry that this little ecclesiastical episode has been introduced into the discussion of the Church-rate question : for sure we are, it will not retard— as episodes generally do—but forward the main action of the piece. The wrath of the Rev. Mr. JENKINS was kindled, because the flock which he feeds began to think that Church-rates might be dispensed with, and he imagined that the spirit of opposition to ecclesias tical extortion, which had found its way to his parish as it has done to most others, would be quelled by the thunders of ecclesiastical authority I Infatuated man I The ideot who attempts to extinguish a conflagration by pouring oil upon the flame is wise compared to him. We direct attention to an interesting debate in the House of Lords last night on the subject of affairs in Spain. From the tenour of Lord MELBOURNE'S speech we are justified in inferring that our Govern ment will shortly take measures for putting an end to the sanguinary struggle that now desolates the Penin sula. This is the only wise and safe course. The whole of the Paris Journals of Wednesday have reached us. They contain no news—domestic or foreign—of any interest. The Journal des De bats has an able article on the subject of the tele graphic despatches, published yesterday, confirming the passage of the Cinca by Don CA RLQS—the drift of which is to show, that unless the Madrid Govern ment bestir itself, the Pretender will succeed in esta blishing himself in Catalonia. Brussels and German papers have been received. The Belgian journals record the enthusiasm with which the great majority of the electors crowd to the hustings to vote for Representatives in the Chamber of Deputies. This is a healthy symptom, and we congratulate the Belgians upon its continued manifes tation ever since the late glorious Revolution. The Ger man journals publish advices from Moldavia and Walla chia, representing the inhabitants of these provinces as in a state bordering upon open insurrection. The SUL TAN was expected to reach Constantinople in a few days after having concluded his tour of observation. The Prince of Bavaria had sent, as a present to the SULTAN, two beautiful vases, which were to be pre sented to his Highness on his return by the Austrian Internuncio. CANT.—There's nothin I hate so much as cant, of all kinds ; its a sure sign of a tricky disposition. If you see a feller cant in religion, clap your hand into your pocket, and lay right hold of your puss, or he'll steal it, as sure as you're alive ; and if a man cant in politics, he'll sell you, if he gets a chance, you may depend. Law and physic arc jist the same, and every mite and morsel as bad. If a lawyer takcs to cantin, its like the fox preachin to the geese, he'll eat up his whole congregation ; and if a doctor takes to it, he's a quack as sure as rates. The Lord have massy on you, for lie wont. I'd sooner trust my chance with a naked hook at any time, than one that's half-covered with bail bait. The fish will sometimes swallow the one without thinkin, but they get frightened at tother, turn tail, and off like a shot. The, Cod:winker ; or, Saying s and Doings V Sam Slich. The grand entertainments which were to have been giver, by the Earl and Countess BroWnlow, in Belgrave square, on Tuesday evening, did not take place owing to the continued indisposition of the King. Many other parties, Which were to have been given by personages connected with the Court, have been postponed from the same cause, which has overcast the fashionable circles with gloom during the pre sent week. PARLIAMENTARY REGISTRATION.—The time for attending to the registration is very near. On the 20th of June the overseers publish their notices, calling upon all wlio are qualified to rote for county Members to put in their claims before the 20th of July. EXTRAORDINARY ESCAPE.—A man in Ohio was pursued lately by a black snake. All at once it occurred to him, just as the reptile was preparing to jump at his throat, to run round a small birch tree which stood in his paths as tight as he could spring. He did so till he got the creature in snarl, when, stopping suddenly, he threw back a somerset, and the snake trying to follow him, tied himself up in a hard knot. American Paper. A piece of plate, of the value of 100 guineas, has been subszribed for, and is to be presented to Mr. Waghorn, in acknowledgment of his great services in promoting the im provement of the communications with India, a labour on which he has been eecuiled, with little intermission, for twelve or fourteen years. Among the subscribers appear twent) of the first names in the city connected with the East India trade. Mr. Waghorn has also been appointed by the East India Com pany their agent in Egypt, to manage the transmission of their letters and dispatches. During the last week Mr. Thomas Kirby sent from York, to be shipped at Hull, far the use of the Emperor of Russia, seven stallions and eleven brood mares. Five of the horses are thorough-bred. The other stallions and the whole of the mares are of the choicest coaching brted which this country possesses. LORD KENYON AND THE lIOUSE OF LORDS.— This celebrated lawyer afforded a striking instance of the same independence and intrepidity in a judge wriich the coun try is at this time witnessing with so much general satisfac tion in the Noble Lord holding the same high office. Lord Kenyon having on some occasion stated opinions not very pa. latable to some of the advocates of privilege, the then Earl of Carlisle threatened to bring the, subject before the House ; but before doing so requested the Lord Chancellor (Lord Roslyn) to communicate with the Chief Justice upon the sub ject, urging him to attend in his place in the House and ex plain himself. This task the Lord Chancellor undertook, but had scarcely hinted to Lord Kenyon the wish that he would appear in his place for the purpose required, than the latter instantly took fire at the suggestion, refusing it with disdain, and adding, " Let them but attempt to touch a hair of the head of the Chief Justice of England, and I will soon show them what be is made of." A gentleman, named Moore, residing at Compton, near Wolverhampton, and who has attained the extraordinary age of 105, has been backed for 501. to walk one mile, and give 25 years to any man in England; that is, his opponent shall have reached 80. So many women have been murdered in the New Norfolk district, Van Diemen's Land, without 'the accused being brought to justice, that such kind of things make very little stir, (Accept among the female portion of the community. —Bent's News, Ja4 ; 7. • CHANCEItY COURT.-(THIS DAY.) e.

The verdiCi ci the , Tory was ‘‘gainst the legitimacy, and the application for the new rf;ig made upon three ground,;—first, that the verdict was against CTi dence ; second, that the Jury had not been properly directed ; and thirdly', upon . the ground of surprise. His Lordship, Aer going at ;fonsiderable length into the evidence on both :ides, stated that T±e Was Clearly of opinion the evidence prc pondera'ed against the legitittirtcy, and he should therefore dismiss the application for a new ttltl i with costs. Lordship could not, however, part with tivi t.'::!v without obseiWirig str- , nf!ly upon the conduct of some of the pr*,;:, who by fraud, forvry, pflory, and conspiracy, bad obtained out of Court no less a sum than 56,600/., to which they were not entitled. Under these circumstances, his Lordship felt it to be his cl:sty to direct all the papers in the case to be laid fore the Attorney-General, as the public prosecutor, in order that he might adopt that course with rel)ect to the parties who had been guilty of such gross conduct ho thought jus- Cce repaired.

KING'S BENCH.-(TINS DAY.) FOLEY V. FOX AND ANOTHER. This was an indictment preferred by a poor woman, who sued in forma pauperis, against the defendants, one of whom was a broker, for breaking and entering her dwelling-house. It appeared that a distress warrant had been placed in tho broker's hands for non-payment of rent, and at an unseason able hour of the night the door was broken open for the pur pose of obtaining possession of the plaintiff's goods. Lord DENMAN, in summing up to the Jury, observed, that the broker's instructions from the landlord were no defence No man could take upon himself to justify another in doing an illegal act. The broker had no right to take the law into his own hands by making a distress after sunset. If such things were sanctioned, there would be no protection for the poor. The Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff, with 40s. da mages against Fox, and acquitted the other defendant. LLOYD'S SHIPPING.-(THIS DAY.)

We have received Cape of Good Elope papers to the 16th of April, from which we extract the following : " A considerable number of the country towns and villages have already taken advantage of the Municipal Bill passed last year, for enabling certain neighbourhoods to form Local Boards for the management of local affairs. We hear nothing from the frontier this mail, except that all is quiet." An express has arrived from Liverpool with New York papers to the 16th ult., brought in the packet ship Sheffield. The accounts from the United States are of a more favourable nature than by the previous arrivals. It is stated that the packet brings about 20,0001. sterling in specie. United States Bank Stock, 111 110 109 ; sovereigns arc worth 5 dollars 25 cents. There arc no later accounts from Mexico, Texag, or Florida. TILE FUNDS. There is a rise this morning in the Funds, owing to an improvement within these last twenty-four hours in his Majesty's health ; as well as to the decision of the Bank Di rectors yesterday afternoon, regarding the firm at Liverpool connected with the American trade. That house is to be as sisted by the Bank with the sums required until the 31st De cember. This resolution on the part of the Bank Directors has given general satisfaction to the American merchants in the City ; and doubtless will be the means of preventing further extensive failures in the American trade. It will also have the effect, on the news arriving in the United States, to make ample shipments of specie to the above house in support of their credit. _ _ _ Consols which closed at 91 i f: for the Account, opened at 91+ ?, for the AccO - unt ; Exchequer Bills, 34 35 prem. ; India Bonds, 34 35 prem. ; Bank Stock, 206 ; Spanish Active, 21 , 2- -a Ex-Coupons ; Passive, 514- ; Deferred, 7,1 Eq; Portu guese, 431 44 ; Three per Cents., 281 291 ; Dutch Two and-a-Half per Cents., 531 ; Colombian, 221 23+.

GRAND JUNCTION RA IL WAY.—The day on which this splendid road will be thrown open for public travel ling is now fixed —Tuesday, July 4, when the journey between Liverpool and Birmingham, and vice verses, will he performed in five hours, or in little less than one-half of the time it now occupies, as well as one-half of the expense, exclusive of the fees which are at present paid to coachmen and guards. KING'S TII TRE.—LaSt night's performances were for the benefit of Madame Grid, and comprised her long tried attraction I Puritani with La Piova dun Opera Sena, the Latter for the first time this season. Of pieces so well known it is almost needless to say anything. I Puritani was excellently done, but we have heard La Prora go off with greater spirit. As a specimen of the burlesque and ridiculous in music it is a real curiosity, and with such acting and sing ing completely answers its object. It is. difficult, however, completely to impress upon large audiences humour of that description, and the piece is almost the only one of the kind that has maintained its ground upon the Italian stage. Grisi was in her best vein, and was applauded even to adulation. She richly deserves her success, beesuse. it has never,com mon as it is among the sisterhood of donne, raised a shadow of presumption or conceit in her. The ::,2use was full, but by no means inconveniently so. COMMON COUNCI L.—A Court of Common Coun cil was held yesterday for general business, and was fully tsts tended. After the proceedings of the former Court had been read, a member called for the letter of the Secretary of the Blackwall Commercial Railway Company to Mr. Alderman Wood, as read at the former Court, to be again read; and after the same was read, the Court unanimously resolved that the said letter should lie on the table, and that the Court were decidedly of opinion the Commercial Railway should not be suffered to extend in any degree beyond the present terminus on the cast side of the Minories ; and they confi dently relied on the justice of the Legislature not to permit a violation of the arrangement made last 3 . ear between the Court and the Railway Company, and confirmed by Parlia ment. Copies of the resolution were orde - red to be imme diately sent to the Members of Parliament for the City. The Court agreed with a report from the Coal and Corn and Fi nance Committee, for allowance for summer excursion to the several members. The Court were then occupied at very considerable length, in discussing a motion brought for ward by Mr. Anderton, which, after two divisions, was finally carried, to the following effect :—" That it is the opinion of this Court that all persons ought to be rendered ineligible to be elected to, or, having been elected, ought to be removed from, the office of Alderman of the city of London, if he shall ' have been a bankrupt or ins:Avent, if he shall have com pounded with his creditors and paid less than twenty shillings in the pound, or if he shall have been convicted of a fraud, of o ther misdemeanor, by the verdict of a jury; and this Court considers itself bound at all times to use its utmost endeavour to prevent every such person holding the said office of alder man, as essential to protect the character and purity of the Court, and thereby promote the best interests of their fellow citizens." The Lord Mayor was requested to lay a copy or the resolution before the Court of Aldermen, with a request that they would unite with the Court of Common Council in carrying the same into effect, whenever occasion should re quire. Mr. William Mozart Russell was elected clerk and col lector of the city's duties upon coals. One of the Brussels papers contains a letter from Frankfort, stating that a considerable quantity of gold was on its way to England.
