The Patentees beg to call public attention to the following facts, the advantages resulting from the invention are various and striking. Independently of a saving 4,1'30 to 60 per cent„ the com bustion is perfect, and the brilliancy produced superior to any light hitherto discovered. It emits neither smell nor smoke, and burns s teadily for any period ; and such is its purity, that it neither affects or soils the most delicate colour or the finest fabric. Objections have Made to the Introduction of gas in dwelling-houses, to the expense of fittings, to its destruction of furniture, draperies, gold moulding, Ice. ; these are entirely obviated by the " PATENT UNIVERSAL GAS linitista." As the cost of laying on gas is muck lower than is corn- Moldy supposed, it Is adapted for private dwellings, as well as for club-houses, hotels, manufactories, and public buildings. One of the small burners is amply suMcient to light a good-sized room, at a sum I mmeasurably lower than spirit, oil, or candle, with the avoidance of Waste or trouble. Tke merits of the " Burner," Its br illiancy and economy s ur p ass i ng tvery • other known light, are s h own by the annexed authentic 431iirgons of the qualities of the UNIVERSAL GAS BURNER.

" Elvira Estat e , June 22, the chimney. lie requested his brother to go to the room and bring away the money, in order that he might not lose it, and that, being found, it might not be evi dence against him. The brother refused, but impru dently mentioned the circumstance to the wife and mother-in-law of the prisoner, who went to the room and carried off the money. They would probably have escaped detection, as Langlois, who had been informed by his brother of what they had done, would not have mentioned the circumstance to the authorities but for the conduct of hi s w if e , w h o w hil s t he w a s in prison led a life of dissipation, and when applied to for as sistance to procure him a few comforts sent him one franc. When the apartment in which the wife and her mother lived was searched there was found a quantity of linen, jewellery, &c., which they had pur chased with the proceeds of the robbery, and 300 francs in gold. It was ascertained that the mother, who first visited the room in the Rue du Four, had cheated her daughter by abstracting nearly 1,000 francs from the amount concealed by Langlois. As the evidence of their guilt was so strong that denial was useless, they made a confession, and threw themselves upon the mercy of the Court, the mother pleading for indulgence for her daughter, who, she said, took no part in the robbery, although she admitted that she subsequently partook of the spoil, and the daughter imploring in dulgence for her mother on the ground of her having three younger children entirely dependent upon her for support. Langlois himself appeared as a witness against the prisoners, and was very severe in his remarks upon his wife ; her profligate conduct with other men, and the wretched pittance that she had sent him in prison, hav ing rendered him furious against her, The jury found both the women guilty. The Court, in its discretion, lowered the punishment two degrees in favour of the mother, who was sentenced to three years' imprisonment, and inflicted the minimum punishment, two years' im prisonment on the daughter. The mother heard her sentence without betraying any emotion, but the wife fainted, and on her recovery uttered piercing cries. The other children of the mother, who were in court during the trial, were removed crying bitterly.— Gal/pm:is Messenger. - - - - The position of General Flores as President of Ecua dor has been set forth very fully in a printed paper , cir culated in the City, and signed " Equatoriano.' The paper is manifestly on the side of the President, but we do not hesitate to give a pretty long abridgment of its contents, since detailed news from Ecuador is a scarce commodity, and a growing interest is felt in the pro gress of the third Colombian republic, if we may judge from the operations on the Stock Exchange. Among other omissions made in the abridgment are the rad& cations of both treaties, which of course aro merely formal : " In March last year an insurrection broke out in Guayaquil, the port of a province of Ecuador on the Pacific ; it was headed by a shopkeeper named Senor Zarnbo Roca. Roca being convicted of seditious acts, had been ordered out of the country by the sentence of the proper tribunal, but with the aid of a largo sum of money contrived to corrupt a company of artillery quar tered at Guayaquil, on the eve of his expulsion being carried into effect. What is called a pronunciamiento followed, throwing off obedience to the Government, and declaring the province independent. "The President, General Flores (who bad been elected President for eight years in 1843, by the unanimous suffrages of the people), sent down from Quito, the capital of Ecuador, a few troops to quell the insurrection, but it being the winter or rainy season, they could not get into the town, the adjacent country about Guaya quil being flooded for many leagues during the months of February to July.

" The rebels, in the mean time, pressed the people into their ranks, and embold e ned by the delay of the Government force, ventured up the river in boats to attack them before they should be reinforced ; they were miserably beaten, an d some hundr e ds who anded were thrust back into the river at the point of the bayonet and drowned. They came up a second time, and were again repulsed with great slaughter. The President, ever generous and humane, did not witness unmoved this destruction of the passive and ignorant people, over whose welfare he had ever been a vigilant guardian, by whom he was adored, and whose prosperity he would have secured by the most enlightened mea sures, had he not been constantly thwarted in his views by the seditious conspiracies of this same truculent in cendiary, Roca, and a few others of the same blighted and broken reputation, who found in the indolent action of the laws, and weakness of the executive power, time to carry out their insurrectionary plans with impunity. Thus in the year 1843, President Flores having asked and obtained from the Congress of that year* power to levy a small tax on the people (the people of Ecuador pay no taxes), in order to -secure a positive amount of money to be solely and exclusively appropriated to the payment of interest to the British bondholders, and to restore by this means some portion of the lost credit of the country, Mr. Zambo Roca raised the standard of revolt and rebellion against the decree of the Congress and the measures of the Govern ment for carrying that decree into effect, and in this manner was retarded a settlement with the foreign creditors notwithstanding the anxious desire of the Pro sident to do them justice, and at the same time to re lease the country from th e stigma of dishonesty and in gratitude which still continues to disgrace it. The late law of public credit established by Roca will convince the bondholders of what they have to expect from such a tyro. To return to the rebels of Guayaquil; I shall briefly state that the President, although at the head of an army firmly devoted to him, and officered by his ancient comrades, the veterans of Bolivar, resolved to spare the effusion of blood in a civil contest which had no other foundation that the predatory views of Roca and the gang of smugglers by whom he was surrounded and supported. The President, moreover, was not unwilling that the people of Guayaquil should see their leaders in their true colours, when his own influence in the country could not be felt or misinterpreted. Ile therefore de sired that respectable persons of Guayaquil should bo selected to enter into a treaty or convention which should put an end to the contest, and at the same time enable him to indulge his long cherished desire of visit ing Europe. However magnanimous or humane the policy of this step, it has been much blamed by the other provinces of Ecuador, whose inhabitants as well as the main body of the Government forces, only re ceived and only consented to a treaty with the rebels in obedience to the wishes of the President. The following is a copy of that treaty, and the President's proclama tion upon his departure for Europe:— " TREATY. " Hardly had General Flores left the country, when Roca and his gang commenced a series of persecu tions against the supporters of the Government which yet endure. Several of the principal proprietors were banished ; the troops faithful to the Government were disbanded, the chiefs and officers driven from the country one by one, on frivolous and vexatious pre texts; General Otamendi, a veteran officer, highly distin guished, perfidiously assassinated under circumstances of revolting cruelty, in the presence of his wife and children; private property seized and pillaged ; the civil servants of the Government deprived of their offices, and these filled by the myrmidons of Roca taken from the lower classes ; in a word, every species of tyranny and persecution was practised against all who were not wal ing to disgrace themselves by becoming his obsequious instruments. In this manner was fulfilled the treaty of Elvira. In utter disregard of the customs of civilised beings, and of the disastrous consequences of such bar barism, not only did Roca break every article of that treaty by his atrocious persecution of the loyal sup porters of the Government, but he also, by the public act of a meeting assembled, ad hoc, in December follow ing (last December), annulled that treaty formally, and had himself named President of the State. The insane assemblage which declared that treaty null and void could do no more to destroy their own pretensions to legality. By this act General Flores is released from all and every obligation he had contracted by that treaty. He re-assumes his position as the constitutional Presi dent of Ecuador, and with it all the obligations annexed to that office. He is bound by every moral and poli tical principle to suppress the barbarous faction that oppresses and disgraces the country which he himself called into political existence. This alone is the object he has in view ; the neighbouring states have nothing to apprehend from President Flores, the whole tenour of whose prive and public life affords ample guarantees for the future."—Times.

Leaves to his butler and valet an annuity of 1001., as also a legacy of 200/., and the whole of his wardrobe, and to his under butler 1001 0 And directs that the pensions he allowed to his former servants, natives of India, shall be continued during their respective lives, as also the annuity of 501. to Mrs. Tait, the widow of his schoolmaster, Mr. Tait, formerly master of Bromley school. All legacies and annuities to be paid in full, free of duty. The residue, real and personal, he leaves to Lieutenant Jas. Metcalfe, who is to take charge of all papers that were in his Lordship's possession, or with his agents, Messrs. Cockerell and Co., Austinfriars, consisting chiefly of private correspondence. The deceased, during the interval of Lord William Bentinck's leaving India, and the arrival of Lord Auckland, namely, Feb. 3, 1835, to March 28, 1836, was provisionally appointed Governor-General, and in that short space he introduced, amongst other measures, the issue of one uniform currency throughout the presidencies, and also secured to the press a freedom from all restrictions. In commemoration of his acknow ledged services, a statuo was raised at Agra by public subscription, and a magnificent piece of plate presented to him. At this period, he had conferred upon him the civil Order of Knight Grand Cross of the Bath. He left the Company's service in the month of February, 1838. He was some time the Company's Resident at Hydera bad ; a Member of the Supreme Council, Bengal, and Governor of the Presidency of Agra ; afterwards Gover nor of Jamaica, and latterly Governor of Canada. It was not until the 25th of January, 1845, that he was raised to the Peerage, which title is now extinct, it being limited to the heirs male of his body, and the deceased baron was never married. His Lordship died at Mal shanger,on the sth of September, at the age of sixty-two. HAMBURGH and FLANDERS MAIL. BRUSSELS, OCT. I.—Her Majesty the Queen, the Duke of Brabant, the Count de Flanders, the Princess Charlotte, and their attendants, left Lacken this morn ing, about six o'clock, for Paris. At th e sout h ern terminus they took their seats in the royal carriage in which they were to proceed to St. Cloud, where the royal family of France are at present residing. The following confirms the intelligence which we gave yesterday of a meeting of the manufacturers of Ghent, for the purpose of maintaining a moderate protection in favour of national manufacture. L YONS AND AVIGNON RAILWAY (SEBASTIANI'S COMPANY), 62, KING WILLIAM-STREET, CITY. The holders of the remaining Scrip Receipts in this Company are requested to bring them in for conversion, and to receive the amount reterned thereon without further delay, as the offices of the Com pany are about being closed, and when that takes place the holders may be delayed considerably, October 5, 1846, The cotton manufacturers of Ghent, at a meeting which took place the day before yesterday, appointed a committee to make a report on the several questions which the society of the partisans of a free trade has just proposed. The new entrepOt of the city of Brussels, which is to be opened to-day, the Ist of October, has already cost 1,040,000 francs. This sum has b. en paid out of the credit voted by the municipal council in the years 1842, 1843, 1845, and 1846. Four years have sufficed for the erection of this gigantic building. The labours of the harvest, and the fine weather which' we have enjoyed for some days, still keeps the peasants employed in the field. Accordingly, the markets of the capital are not so well supplied, and this naturally causes a rise in the prices. We have received from Poperinghe further informa tion respecting the hop gathering, which is now entirely terminated. We have already stated that there are very few years so favourable as the present. The value of the hops produced at Poperinghe may be estimated, without exaggeration, at a million and a half pounds, and that of the neighbouring communes at half a million. In ordinary years the produce is scarcely a million at Poperinghe. Reckoning the value of the present crop at the average price of only 50 francs per hundred pounds, the cultivation of hops w►ll have pro duced the sum of a million francs to the inhabitants of Poperinghe and its vicinity. A letter from St. Petersburgh states that the works on the railway to Moscow are proceeding rapidly, and that this grand communication will probably be opened in 1847. "The Provisional Government of the Equator on the one part, and on the other his Excellency General Juan Jose Flores, wishing to avoid the continuation of a war which would cause great and grievous ills, have resolved to enter into a treaty which will put an end to the pre sent disastrous contention. In consequence, they have named their respective commissioners, viz., on the part of the Provisional Government, Messrs. Pablo Merino, Pedro Carbo, and Juan Francisco Milian; and on the part of his Excellency General Flores, Colonels Juan H. Soulin, Carlos Vincendon, and Francisco Gavin°, who, after exchanging their respective credentials, have agreed to the following articles:— "Art. 1. Peace shall be restored to the Republic; con sequently all hostilities eease.l Art. 2. The military garrisons shall be stationed as follows :—The troops that are at present in the districts of Guayas and Azuay shall be disposed of by the Pro visional Government; and of those encamped at Elvira, 400 to 500 men will march to the barracks of the city Bolivar; the battalion of Babahoyo shall be disbanded, the individuals composing it being allowed to retire to their homes. BRUSSELS, OCT. 2.—During the storm on Monday last, a servant of Count A. De Beaufort, returning to the Chateau of Mielmont, at Onoz, near Namur, on taking hold of the chain of the bell, was killed on the spot by a violent explosion of the electricity accumulated on the chain. The electric fluid then passed into the kitchen, but without causing any damage. A lady who was in the kitchen at the moment of the explosion was not af fected by it. During the first nine months of this year, there arrived in the port of Antwerp (coming from sea), with various cargoes, 1,719 ships, not including 4 English yachts, the schooner Louisa Maria, a Belgian ship com ing from Holland by the inland waters, and 5 new ships launched within the same period. During the first nine months of 1845, only 1,358 ships arrived at Antwerp, so that the difference in favour of 1846 is 392 ships. In 1845, 203 Belgian ships arri ve d a t Antwerp, and in 1 8 4 6 there entered during the same p er iod only 188—dif ference, 15. "Art. 3. All the general, field, and subaltern officers of the troops, commanded by General Flores, that are not considered necessary by the Provisional Government, shall retire from the service with corresponding honour and their pay according to law. " Art. 4. No one shall be persecuted on account of his past political opinions, nor for any services renderad to either party. "Art. 5. Any exactions on private property, made by either party, shall be fully indemnified, when applied for in the proper legal form. "Art. 6. Any orders or acceptances due by either of tha parties, as also all contracts pending that are ac cording to the laws, shall be respected and carried into effect. MANCHESTER COMMERCIAL ASSOCIATION. A memorial has been addressed to Lord Palmerston by Mr. Turner, the president of the Commercial Asso ciation, on the subject of the recent disturbances at Canton, which, with the reply, we subjoin : (Copy.) " Manchester Commercial Association, September 25, 1846, " My Lord,—The directors of this association, by let ters received from China per the last mail, have been solicited to co-operate in calling the attention of her Majesty's Government to the serious outrages which have been recently committed against the persons and property of British subjects in Canton by the native po pulation ; and to point out the necessity which exists of guarding against a recurrence of similar disturbances, by the presence of a British ship of war in the imme diate neighbourhood. " Art. 7. The Provisional Government,when completed by the proper members, will issue a decree for the con vocation of a national convention. " Art. 8.

CURIOUS ROBBERY. Rather more than a month ago a young man named Langlois, who was garcon de bureau to M. Bernard, an , and senten ce d agent d'ciffaires in the Rue Taranne, was t r i e d f or rob tboi n g sevenhis master yearn'oifmar r s i u s o m n m of e francsn3t,.l37ihe eireumstances of the robbery were rather curious. Langlois, who did not sleep at the home of his employer, but went there early every morning, himself gave the alarm, and the family, on quitting their beds, found the office in a state of confusion, with stains of blood on the floor, chymical matches lying about, and a window forced. Langlois himself had done all this to make it appear that the place had been entered by burglars, and that one of them had been wounded in doing so. Langlois, however, overacted llowi hich l e d to t h e ar rest day conf esse d hi s Pais part so much that he was suspected and arre s t e d. H e protested his innocence up to the moment of hi s con demnation guilt, a e of his wife, a young and very pretty woman , and her mother, whose name is Froment. Th ey were made sthe disclosures following brought before the Court of Assizes charged with having had a knowledge of the robbery, and with having converted the proceeds of it to their own use. It appeared from the evidence that a few days before the trial of Langlois be revealed to hiS brother, who had gone to see him in prison, that he had really stolen the money, and in order to conceal it from his wife and his m other-in-law, who he said would soon have dissipated it, he had hired a room in the Rue du Four, St. Germain, and had put it, with the exception Of 40 francs, which he had taken for immediate use, iu " PABLO MARINO, " PEDRO CARBO, " JUAN FRANCISCO MILLAN, " JUAN lIIPOLITO SOULIN, " CARLOS VINCENDON, " FRANCISCO GAVINO."

"Fellow Citizens,—This day I cease to be President Of the Republic, and I take my leave of you for Europe, whence I hope to return and find you free and happy, after you have constituted yourselves anew, far from my p ‘rsonal influence—in perfect liberty. If I had the glory of founding your independence, I also have the honour to make a great sacrifice in banishing myself from you the very moment it was published and sustained that I was an obstacle in the way of your happiness, and when, thanks to Divine Providence, no one has vanquished me. I only hope that this sacrifice will be as grateful to you as the conviction that I h ave never usurped or abused public authority is flattering to me ; neither have I stained with blcod the political scaffold during the con- HIGHWAY ROBBERY.—On the night of Saturday last the following daring highway robbery was com mitted on the Great Western-road, about midway be tween Knightsbridge and Kensington. It appears that just after midnight, as Mr. Osborn, of Pimlico, was re turning home along the Great Western.road, from the direction of Kensington turnpike, he was suddenly at tacked by six or eight men, dressed as labourers, who demanded his money. Mr:Osborn called out for the police, but one of the men instantly tore open Mr. Os born's coat, and snatched from his waistcoat pocket a silver watch, with which they ran off. Policeman Proud hearing Mr. Osborn's cries, hastened to the spot, pursued the thieves in the direction pointed out by Mr. Osborn, and shortly came up with four men answering the de scription, two of whom he secured. They were imme diately conveyed to the station-house, Kensington, but Mr. Osborn being unable to identify either of them, they were liberated. * " General Flores has always maintained the opinion that as there were no other available resources to pay the British bondholders, tho nation for whose independence the debt was originally incurred should contribute to pay a debt so sacred, especially as they pay no other tax whatsoever."

MURDEROUS ASSAULT UPON A GAMEKEEPER OF THE EARL OF DARNLEY.—Yesterday information wac forwarded to the Metropolitan and City Police that a gamekeeper upon the estate of the Right Ron. the Earl of Darnley, Cobham, Kent, named Thomas Capps, had been brutally assaulted and ill-treated by two fellows, so as materially to endanger his life, whilst in the dis charge of his duty. JUDGMENTS. Shortly after entering the court The 13 ArtnrsT7ia said there are three cases which stand over for judgment, in which the only question is whether the parties respectively occupy certain premises as tenants, by reason of the landlord of cuach residing in the house. They are the cases of John Davies Price, in the list of the parish of St. Clement, Easteheap, down for a count. ing-house, 3, Church -court, Clement's-lane; Frederick William Grainger, in the parish of St. Margaret, New Fish-street, for a counting- house, 17, Pudding-Jane; Henry Woodgate Saffel, in the parish of St. Leonard, Eastcheap, for a counting-house, 5, Eastcheap. Mr. Price occupies three rooms as a counting-house en the first floor of the house, 3, Church -court, which communicate with each other internally, and have two doors opening into the common passage of the house. The landlady of the house, Mrs. Artis, re sides in it, occupying the ground floor as a parlour, and kitchen, and the rooms above the first floor as sleeping apartments for herself and servant. The street-door of the house is always left open on week days during the hours of business, but Mr. Price has no key of that door, the key is kept by the landlady; he has, however, the keys to the passage doors of the rooms in his occu pation; these keys are left at night with the landlady's servant, who has the charge of cleaning and looking after the rooms in question, and for these services the landlady is paid 51. a year more in the rent than she would be if Mr. Price had a servant of his own to look after the rooms. Under these circumstances I am of opinion that Mr. Price does not occupy the rooms in question as a tenant, but merely as a lodger, and that the case falls within the principle of Pitt's case (1 Bar. and Arn, 344), and Hill's case (lb., 409). It was ad mitted, indeed, by Mr. Wansey, who appeared to support the vote of Mr. Price, that if that gen tleman had slept in the rooms he occupied he would clearly be a lodger, but in my opinion the quality of the occupation does not depend upon the purposes for which the occupier may use the premises. I cannot suppose, for example, that if a party occu pies the drawing-room fluor of an ordinary dwelling• house in which his landlord resides, the outer door of the house being left shut, and he uses the apartments in his occupation for the purposes of business only, and calls them a counting-house, he is to be entitled to the franchise, when he would certainly not be entitled to it if he used the same rooms as a dwelling-house. In other words, I think that where a qualification is conferred in respect of the occupation of a counting-house, it is in tended that the premises should be of such a nature as that if used as a dwelling-house they would be sufficient to confer the qualification as " a house." Nor do I think that the circumstance of the street-door being left open during the day makes any difference in such a case. It is probably done here for the accommodation of Mr. Price, but it appears to me that as the landlady resides in the house she retains in law the control over the door. I am of opinion, therefore, that Mr. Price's name must be expunged. The circumstances in Mr. Grainger's case are precisely similar in all essential particulars to that in Mr. Price's, and this case will therefore be governed by that decision, and Mr. Grainger's name will be ex punged. In Mr. Saffel's case there are some impor tant facts of a different character. That gentleman also occupies the first floor of the house No. 5, East cheap, as a counting-house, and his landlord occupies the ground floor as a shop, and the upper part of the house above the first floor as a residence ; but this upper part is shut off from the lower portion by a deor at the foot of the staircase leading from the first floor ; and that door is fastened, and the key of it kept by the land lord. The street-door of the house is, as in Mr. Price's case, always left open during the hours of business ; and it was proved in this case that this was so done by an express agreement with the landlord ; but Mr. Saffel has no key to it. The shop has a separate entrance from the street, and there is a side door from the shop into the passage of the house, which door is not fastened up, but which is used by the landlord when he wishes to go from the shop to the upper part of the house. Mr. Saffel's own servant takes charge of the rooms in his occupation. lam of opinion that Mr. Saffel occupies these rooms as "tenant," and that he possesses a good qualification in support of them. It appears to me that the upper portion of the house in which the landlord re• sides is so sufficiently divided from the rest of the build ing as to form, in law, a distinct and separate tenement; the outer door to which may be considered to be the door opening upon the staircase. If the shop on the ground floor had no communication with the pas sage, the case, I think, would have presented no doubt, because in that case the shop and the first floor would have been also two distinct and separate tenements; but as the shop has a door int@ the passage leading to Mr. Saffel's apartments, I consider the whole lower front of the house as in the nature of one tene ment. But of this the landlord only occupies a part; he resides, it may be said, elsewhere, in what I consider to he in law a separate building; and I decide this case, therefore, in accordance with the decisions in which L have held that the mere occupation by a landlord of part of a house will not disqualify a party who occupies ano ther portion of the same house, a point upon which, however, I may say that I do not feel very confident in the absence of any decision by a higher tribunal. The street-door in this case might perhaps be looked upon as a mere protection to the premises, in the nature of a door or gate at the end of a court passage, or at the en trance to a building containing several sets of chambers, which is left open during the day, and closed for safety at night. But Ido not lay much stress upon the fact of this door being left open by day, and that it is so by an express agreement between the parties, for if it wer e usually kept closed, it would still be but thei case I have before mentioned, that of the mere occupation by the landlord of a portion of the tenement consisting of the lower portion of the house. I decide, therefore, that Mr. Saffel's name will be retained. Mr. Wansey begged the Court would allow him a little time to consider whether he shoukl take a case on the question of the counting-house, as he considered it one of importance. The BARRISTER also considered the question of very great importance, and expressed the greatest willingness to accede to the application of Mr. Wansey. George Catherwood claimed to be registered on the ground of successive occupation from No. 3 to No. 1, Warnford-court, but the premises which he occupied in successive occupation not being described, the name was expunged. _ _ Res'u - lt of the day's revision, according to the Liberal return:— Failed or Allowed ' Withdrawn.

Yesterday the revision of the list of voters for the borough of Marylebone was finally concluded at thri Court-house, Marylebone-lane, before D. C. Moylan, Esq. There was nothing of any interest brought before the Court, the proceedings being confined exclusively to the correction of the lists. In the parish of Marylebone, the letters D.D. after the names of the several district clergymen were struck out, on account of their clerical order not being required. EAST SURREY. Mr. Fyshe, the revising barrister, held his court yes terday. at the Vestry Hall, Camberwell, to go through the list of voters for that district. Mr. E. Meymott attended, as Conservative agent, Mr. R. Russell for the Free-traders, and Mr. Jeans repre sented the Liberal party. In the parish of Christ Church 24 new claims were sent in by parties claiming to vote in respect of free hold land and houses, situate in Body's-court, in that parish. The claims were opposed by Mr. Meymott. Mr. Russell, who supported the claims, said that the parties who claimed the right to vote, were the mem bers and shareholders of a building society, called the Finsbury House Estate Company, the object of which was, when a certain sum was raised by the contribu tions of its members; to purchase house property, or invest their money on mortgage upon it. The property so derived was vested in the usual way in three trustees, but they only acted for the benefit of the shareholders generally, and as the property, for which the votes were now claimed, was of amply sufficient value, he sub mitted that the whole of the parties now claiming to vote, were entitled to have their names upon the re gister. The deeds were produced, and the trustees,. whow were present, were questioned as to the nature ofthe associa tion proving the facts, as stated by Mr. Russell.ap peared that since the formation of the so ci e ty some of the members had disposed of their shares to other par ties by deeds of assignment. Mr. Meymott, in opposition to the claims, argued that there was no freehold qualification, and that the shares were merely personal property, and not freehold, and were treated as such by the members of the society. Mr. Russell, in reply, said it did not matter how the parties themselves might act with regard to their own property, if there was, in point of fact, a freehold inte rest originally, and he cited a judgment given by the late Lord Chief Justice Tindal upon precisely the same point, in support of his view of the question. The REVISING BARRISTER said it appeared to him that the case cited by Mr. Russell was completely iden tical with the present one, end he considered the claim ants entitled to vote. The whole of the names were, therefore, placed upon the list. him. •;., -' ..

DEATH OF SIR CHI (From the Times) This - event, which took place at Wolesley-hall, in Staf fbrdahire, on Saturday last, was neither premature, nor unexpected. The youthful part of the present generation may probably consider Sir Charles to have been a person who occupied so little of public attention that he might be permitted now to descend into the grave without any very especial notice; but the elder portion of our . , readers will readily recollect that he rendered himsr if in no t , ligl , t degree remarkable during that part of the Relorin tr,i tationS in which Hunt and Cobbett took voiniet-nt parts. The course that Sir Cloud( Y. thin OM lied ens, for such a man, really singular. Ile w s a Tkr: on of good substance, and belonging to the higher classes of society, both in right of his birth and of his title. If he had possessed a scat in the House of Commons, his standing forward as an advocate of Parliamentary Reform in that assembly would have occasioned no sur prise whatever; but that he, a gentleman we believe in all senses of the word, shottid have associated himself with the seditious deinag gues out of doers, who took advantage of general distress and popular ignorance to promote their own sinister and unworthy objects, was a course of conduct for which scarcely any parallel can be. found. That he was extremely eccentric those who knew him will be quite ready to admit, but he was pee baps the only man amongst his contemporaries who, without any mean or selfish purposes, permitted him self to be made so completer an instrument in the hands of those who then traded upon the virtue of patriotism, and hoped to share in the plunder of a revolution. From all that baseness Sir Charley Wolesley was perfectly free, and it is only fair and just that the close of his life should be attended by seine expression of re - gretand respect. He was in the 78th year of his age, having been born on the 20th of July, 1769. The family from which Sir Charles was descended is one of con siderable antiquity, but it was often difficult to repress a smile at the earnestness with which the dignity of his ancestry used to be insisted on by those who desired to make him an efficient instrument in the cause of sedi tion. With them a Tory squire was "the tenth transmitter of a foolish face," but in a democrat ancient birth was "a jewel of price;" and there can be no doubt thfft the Wolesleys are one of the best families in Stafford shire. Their founder was Siwardus, Lord of Wiaelgi the fifth in descent from him was Robert Lord of - NS o- lesley, who appears to have been the head of the family in the thirteenth century, and Ralph, another descend ant, was one of the Barons of the Exchequer in the time of Edward IV. Sir Robert, the first of the family who received a baronetcy, was so created on the 24th of November, 1625, and held the office of Clerk of the Patents in Chancery. The fifth son of Sir Robert qc companied William 111. to Ireland, commanded the Enniskillen men at the battle of the Boyne, and after wards became one of the Lords Justices of Ireland. Sir Charles, the eldest son of Sir Robert,. was Member for Stafford in the reign of Charles 1., and his son becamo a zealous adherent of Cromwell, so that there appears to have been in this race a tendency to Liberalism in the 17th century, as well as in the 19th. The third baronet, Sir William, was drowned on the Bth of Jllly, 1,Z28, is fording a brook, when he, his horses, and Carriage were carried away by the sudden bursting of a mill-dam. Of the fourth and fifth baronets nothing memorable is recorded. The sixth married . Miss Chambers, of Wimbledon, in Surrey, and the eldest surviving issue of that marriage forms' the subject of the present no t tice. He was the seventh baronet, and was twice married, first on the 13th of December, 1794, to Afary, ! daughter of the Hon. Thomas Clifford, of Tixall, in Staffordshire, by whom he had three children. This lady died on the 16th July, 1811, and within one year from that date Sit Charles, being then in the 43d year of his age, married, on the 2d of July, 1812, Anne, the youngest daughter of Anthony Wright, Esq., of Wealdside, in the county of Essex, by whom he had six children. The subject of this notice succeeded to the baronetcy upon the death of his father, in the month of August, 1817. At that precise period the transition from a state of war to a state of peace, combined with the influence of a succession of deficient harvests, produced very general distress, dried up the sources of manufacturi ng prosperity, produced much disturbance amongst the town population, and as usual led to a clamorous de mand for a change in the representation of ß i re h mar e aitnta p gk e he o as p ra l q At W hse h ml e l n T ossioeusciheys largelye i n i t a i i m l a e iss n thentsotare ee neighbourhood f o ba a or t ufrri n i o o m o o d placeo f that com mercial emporium, Sir Charles was . selected by the Brummagem patriots as the best card in their hand ; they, therefore, prevailed on him to attend pia consultations of their committees, to move their resolutions at public meetings, and even occa sionally to address large assemblies of that, class out of which those political unions were formed, which so materially promoted the passing of the Reform Act. Thus carried on step by step, Sir Charles Wolesley ended by becoming a Radical Reformer. His admirers in that town, which has been called the " great smithy of the nation," considered that they ought to be represented in the great council of the nation; and thus principle bas certainly been recognised in the memorable measure of reform; but in the days when Sir arks Wolesley was a demagogue the idea of c l ec t i a cN Member for Birmingham was regarded as something just short of high treason. The sturdy smiths of Eng land's forge were, however, resolved to secure the agency of a legislatorial attorney, and incontinehtly they summoned a meetings which took place at Newhall hill, near Birmingham, on the 12th of May, 1819. As , ~ every experienced politician expected, this terminated an mere smoke, and the whimsical crotchet eAlegislatorial attorney ended where it began, with the clrmorous elec tion of Sir Charles, by 15,000 or 20,000, some say 50,000, of the men of Birmingham and its vicinity! It was pre tending to send a man to Parliament, who—as the electors well knew—could not sit; and therefore to Wen exterft 1 resembled the Clare election in 1828, when, before fhe Emancipation Act, altoman Catholic was returned. The re sults of the latter, however, assumed a very serious aspect, while those of the former were simply ludicrous. Still the desire of Sir Charles to become a popular idol was not baffled by the ill-success of the scheme which made him an attorney. It is true that Mr. Wooler and others were tried for this attempt to force their favourite Baronet into the House of Commons; that they were convicted and imprisoned. Unfortunately Sir Charles was not to be taught by the lessons which the experience' of others presented; and accordingly we find him in the same year making a speech at Stockport, for which he was brought to trial and suffered twelve months' im-- prisonment. Every effort was made to give his trial, his imprisonment, and even his liberation all advantages to be derived from theatrical effect and popular enthusiasm; but the measures taken fdr that p pose i were not quite so successful as they usually pro , for Sir Charles was not a first-rate demagogue, and the distress of the working classes was gradually be ginning to abate. But the reforming propensities of Sir Charles were not destined yet to undergo any abatement. On the 11th of March, 1820, he was again brought to trial for sedition, jointly with a man of the name of Joseph Harrison, a schoolmaster,- This proceeding took place at the Chester assizes; both were found guilty, and sentenced to eighteen months' impri sonment. Even these heavy punishments did not alto gether check the mistaken zeal of Sir Charles Welesler; for he is found continuing to attend Reform meetings - as long as they continued to be held ; but when the hor Lord Sidmouth ceased to be Home Secretary, alki Mr. Canning began to lead the Ministerial party, it so hap pened that the question of Parliamentary Reform went somewhat out of fashion, and the only occasion which presented itself for the display of Sir Charles Wolesley's patriotism was that of becoming one o 4 the sureties for Mr. Hunt upon his liberation from Ilchester gaol. Par liamentary reform, though it slumbered for a season, awoke in 1830 with an energy which proved to be the harbinger of eventual triumph. But by that time Sir Charles had declined into the vale of years. The frost of more than threescore winters had chilled in his heart sthtoeodspfiorritwoafrd to leadpolitical enterprise. Mightier M mo ig v h em tie e r nt, m a en nd th th an er h e - e: fore he retired to his proper position in society, finding his days as he ought to have spent his entire life—in the privacy of his own home. _ , ter - NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
