T a MEETING o f t h e DISSENTERS of the IND EPENDENT DENOMINATION, hold at "GAY, on SATURDAY, the 27th of May, 18'37; The Rev. JOHN BLACKIE in the Chair; It was resolved unanimously, ch i r: Th at as the imposition of Church-rates is incompatible with whin principle, and their enforced payment with religious free -1()rn, Dissentors are bound, at all tim es an d unt ! er a ll circuiLstances, in strive r thei r entire abolition. , 2 That the measure i ntroduced by his Majesty's Ministers de t)f 'Ps the unqualified app ro b at i on and active support of every friend !wil Anti religious liberty. 1. ,9. That the recent division in the House of Commons renders it I ; l : la mbent on Dis see t et s, i n all parts of the kingdom, to renew their :rtiohN, fora rigorous agitation of the question. d That, its the m os t e ff ectua l means to t hi s en d cons i sts in rat tering the collection difficult or impracticable, the individuals coin ing thi s meeting will refuse to pay whatever Church-rates may g uessed upon them. als, in . _tope, no doubt, of being mistaken for a large l!f111, of that commodity. The wife said that the least she could have (Npe •ted, tier having condescended to become the wife of p •rson of so unreasonable a colour was, that he would avoil the society of all other women for hers, and support her and his children. She was, however disappointed ; for the moment he reached the shore either of England or Ha it. burgh, he associated with the lowest women, and actually kept one in a private lodging in a very elegant manner, The defendant declared that his wife was so jealous, that when her own mother called to see them, after the knot was tied, she fancied the poor old woman admired him too much. Upon another occasion he had stopped in the street to lift up a female who bad fallea down, and the moment he put the lady on her legs his wife swore that she was a friend of his, and had squatted in the mud inten tionally. In fact there was nothing too extravagant for her to do, so that he was determined to get rid of her In well as he could, in the European style, by running aw.ty from her. He had put two of his children to scshool at Hamburgh, and as only one remained with her, she might very easily support that from her own resources, which onsisted of a strong constitution, a powerful pair of arms; and a tongue that nothing but death could ever be expeetel to conquer. The LORD AIATott.--It is evident the child In her arms is yours, for the features bear a particular resemblance to yours. Nobody could mistake that DORI and lips ? (A laugh.) Defendant.—Yes, my Lord, there is no doubt that they are all my children, and I am very fond of them ; but if their tongues turn out like their mother's, it is no use for them to be like any one else. (A laugh.) The LORD MAYOR.—You have the advant.ge of her, you know, if either happen to be inconstant. . Defendant.—Yes, my Lord, but I a'nt the on l y n i gger in th e wor ld. B ut s h e k new I was black she had me, and she would have me before all the world. - The Lotto Marox.—And that's the reason you should act kindly to her. She saw your visage in your mind. Defendant. —No, my Lord - , she married me because I had the cooking of the victuals, and she knew there It - as nothing ttrcooCamong her own countrymen.—(Laughter.) The Loan AlAYoll..—You must find secur i ty to the parish officers to pay her ss. per week, or take her off with you to Hamburgh, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, MAY 29, 1837. No. 13,949. PRICE sd.

The Dublin Evening Post of the above date says, " NN' should not be surprised if his Majesty should direct the di. sollition of Parliament immediately." The same journal, speaking of the O'Connell Compel , sation Fund, states that " The concordance of the Liberal: of all shades of opinion in the course pursued by Mr. O'Connell, is practically manifested by the success vvhici promises to attend the collection of the Compensation Fund for the past and present year. Indeed, it behoves the Re formers, for the advancement of their principles and objects. in which the general interests of the Empire are, to so large. an extent involved, to co-operate in a measure instituted fot the sustainment of a public man, whose energy, talents, and influence are of such paramount import.anca to the cause. The call of the trustees upon the people of Ireland has al ready produced its intended effects over the entire surface of the country, and our adverkising columns show the acti • vity that prevails in this city with relation to the collection." TITHES AND CHURCH-RATES.—We are rejoiced to see the people of Ireland giving a lesson to . their Anti-Church rate brethren in Britain. They are disputing the payment of tithes inch by inch—in the Courts, out of the Courts— in town and country—in the fields, and even in the gaols. THE FORGER. AND THE FANATICS.—The Rev. Mr. M'Ghee, whose detected attempt to pass off a forged ca lumny last year ought to have kept him out of Exeter-hall, at least' until the memory of that event had faded away, leas been addressing Mr. O'Connell and Mr. Sheil, in the :nature of a challenge, to attend and dispute with him in the same arena on the 27th instant, on some new topic of si milar truth. In reference to the mountebank's challenge, the Freeman truly enough says, " Some people have the impudence of Old Nick, and of this class the Rev. Robert .111`Ghee may well boast the supremacy. Many a man has been sent on a long voyage for a less heinous off2nee against morality than the one to which M'Ghee pleaded guilty. Any other than himself, after such a public exposure, would have at once withdrawn himself from !the public gaze—he would have hid himself in some distant corner of the earth, and even there he would have been ashamed to look in the face of an honest man." COURT OF CHANCERY, MAI- 57. IN RE SCOTT, A BANKRUPT. Mr. BETHEL appeared in this matter to support a peti. tint) which prayed the Court not to sanction an order of the Court of Review, which permitted two different parties to sue out flits of bankruptcy. The bankrupt was a trader residing at Poole, in Dorsetsbire. On the 24th of April a solicitor, named Parr. applied for a commission, but put in an affidavit, stating that the Commissioner for the Poole list was a debtor of the estate, and that it would be expedient, therefore, to refer the inquiries under the commission to the next nearest list, namely, that of Blandford. Having succeeded in this application, it appeared that nothing was lone till the 18th of May, when it was discovered that the statement respecting the Poole Commissioner was founded on a misapprehension, and some proceeding being threatened by that Commissioner an application was made for a new commission, to he referred to the proper Commissioners of the district. This application the Bankruptcy-office re fused to grant without ha% inn fresh papers. These fresh papers were accordingly sent for ; hut they did not arrive until the 22d of May, and on the morning of the 23d an other solicitor appeared at the office to strike a docket in the name of another creditor. For that creditor the Learned Counsel now appeared, and they contended that dS the first solicitor had not prosecuted his commission within the legal period, there was a right in his client to have the management of the proceeding to the exclusion of the party originally suing. Mr, SWAINSTON, for the original commission, conceived that under the circumstances this was not a case in which his client was to he excluded. The Loan CHANCELLOR said that there was no pre tence for allowing the first commission to be proceeded with, and the fiat must, therefore, be granted to the first party applying since the expiration of the time allowed by the order. Mr. BETHEL applied for costs. His LORDSHIP said that as the petition was in effect a pe tition to set aside an order of the Court of Review he was precluded from giving costs ; but he :gave the pat tics liberty to apply for costs to the C our t o f Review itself. This day was published, in 2 vols. post Bvo., SKETCHES in the PYRENEES; with some Remarks on Languedoc, Provence, and the Cornice. By the Author of " Slight Reminiscences of the Rhine," " Th 4 Gossip's Week," &c. &c. This is the most brilliant book of its class we can remember to have read. In matter and style it presents the rare and triumphal)+ union of richness and simplicity. The writer is a woman, and a true one, full of the exquisite impulses of her sex, which she paints in colours as beautiful as they will be unfading. Her grace and feeling, her gaiety and imagination, enchant the reader in the first pages of the books. The writer, whoever she is, may at once claim the highest place in this class of literature."—Examiner, May 28, 1837.

I have found it to cure in a much shorter time, and with more benefit to the general health, than ary ether mode of treatmeni I know of; the gene rality of eases have been cured within a week from the commencement of taking the Medicine, ai - .1 some of them in less time than that.

Parker, goldsmith, Russell-street, Bloomsbury Some time ago a quantity of wool was plucked from the bodies of live sheep upon a farm at Falside. This new and very cruel species of theft has, of late years, become so prevalent, that the stock farmers on the eastern range of the Cheviots have been compelled to enter into an association to banish all wool gatherers, by whom it is understood to have beer► practiced to a very considerable extent, from their sheep walks.—Kelso Chronicle. The atrocious scene of corruption and venality with which we last week startled our readers, is about to be exhi bited for judgment before a solemn tribunal. The Borough of Bridgewater is to be put upon its trial before the assembled Representatives of the people of the United Kingdom, and we trust that the depraved of het constituency will meet that con dign punishment due to an iniquitous system which happily has 'few parallels in our empire. But though we hope soon to see the law visiting with its se►erest punishment, as public opinion has already visited, those a ho have received bribes and sold their noblest birthright for a mess of pottage, it must not be forgotten that there is another class of offonders, whom public opinion has overlooked, but who are not less guilty in the sight of heaven and in the eye of the law than those who haVe received bribes, we mean those who have given them.— Somerset Gazette. Tens of thousands of our industrious classes are un employed, and exposed to the privations of penury. Subscrip tions for their relief are required in almost every manufacturing town. Nor does the prospect brighten if we look forward ; yet taxes are continued, places and pensions are bestowed and multiplied, and the revenue of the country is profusely lavished for jobbing and corruption. Eight thousand pounds are placed by Lord Belha% en, as his Majesty's representative, at the disposal of the General Assembly. We ask, Who ad vised this grant ? The King, the Head of the Church, is said to give it; but who advised him? From what fund is this money drawn ? And from what sources is that fund replenished? We presume no order of the House of Commons has passed for such a grant. We may be told the money comes from the Privy-purse ; but whence arc its treasures obtained 7—Scot tish Pilot. The forty-first annual Conference of the Methodist New Connexion closed its sittings at Leeds on Tuesday last. On examining the reports from the Circuits, relative to the union with the Wesleyan Association, it was ascertained that whilst there existed a universal conviction of the desirableness of a union, abstractedly considered, there were very strong ob jections felt in many of the Circuits to the terms on which the union was proposed to be founded. The numbers in favour of changing the name, and the numbers opposed to the change, were nearly equal ; there being throughout the connexion, in England, a majority of four voices for its relinquishment ; it is therefore left an open question. The quarterly meetings are to be elective, with the exception of circuit preachers and cir cuit stewards, and the secretary to the local preachers—each circuit being left to determine what proportion of official, and what proportion of private, members shall constitute the quar terly meeting ; but with the exception before stated all are to be elected by their respective societies. The power sof con ference, though slightly modified, are not essentially different from the powers already possessed. Other questions of infe rior importance were either modified, or adopted, or left open for future discussion and settlement.—Halifax Express. Though the haymaking, owing to the backwardness of the season, will be everywhere much later than usual, the crops of grass are likely to be generally abundant. Never in the memory of the oldest agriculturist was there to short a stock of cattle-food left in the country. In Cornwall the very thatch has been taken off the buildings and cut into chaff. The veteran Pantomimist Barnes, the once cele brated pantaloon, is fast sinking to the " bourne from whence no traveller returns," at a lodging near the Victoria Theatre, in poverty. On Thursday evening an ostler residing at Witham, named Thomas Clark, went into the Angel a t Witham, and asked the barmaid to read him the direction on a small packet, on which was marked If Arsenic—poison." When slip had done ao he said, " I'll bet you a shilling take this poison myself," tiad wished her to take his bet, whi c h s h e laughingly refused. He then called for a glass of runt and water, into which he put the contents, and drank it off.

(From the Dumfries Courier.) Professor Chalmers has a good right to plume himself on the victory he has achieved in the General Assem bly. O'Connell himself is not a greater man in Ireland than the Doctor is in Scotland ; and it is quite true that his political following, allowing for the difference of population, is equal to anything which the redoubted Dan could possibly muster on the opposite side, even when like Rob Roy, he plants his brawny foot upon his native heath. From the first we felt assured that his no minee would win easy, and the result, so far from falling under, has exceeded our expectations. " Some men are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them ;" and placing; as we are bound to do, Dr. Chalmers in the second category, is it uncharitable to say that Dr. Gardiner, compared to Dr. Lee, belongs most de cidedly to the third ? When the Professor was a Whig, or supposed to be one—and the distinction, we admit, is veryitn portant—his power was trifling in our highest Church Judi catory, even when reinforced by the fine talents and liberal sentiments of the late Dr. Andrew Thomson ; but Lord Bacon's " greatest innovator" has changed the position of parties entirely ; and for this distinction the Doctor stands indebted not so much to his own fervid eloquence as to the journey to London, and.the refusal of Ministers to jump into his measures with all the ardour of a boarding-school miss about to elope to Gretna Green. This wont of defe rence to a great name mortified him sadly ; th e woun d s o f vanity are difficult to heal, and rarely skin over with what the Faculty call the first intention ; and no onlooker, who has marked his course, can fail to perceive that he has never been the same man since. The vote, therefore, of Thursday was not one of datur diguiori, personal fitness, or qualifica tion ; but, with the bulk at least of Dr. Lee's opponents, one of pure and unmixed Church politics. Of th's gentleman we know nothing save by common report ; but lengthened experience has no. doubt taught him— " Is there a man so fond to rule alone, Bears, like the Turk, no rival near his throne"— and he may comfort himself with the assurance that the bad word of a brother, under all the circuolstances, can neither break his heart nor his character. The vote taken was not so much against him as against our Whig Mi n i s t ers , th e Church Commissione rs , Voluntaries, Dissenters, Radicals, Catholics ; and, by parity, in favour of the English Pre lates, and their Orange and Ultra backers in both Houses of Parliament. Paint an inch thick, and to this complexion you must come at last. The rejected, we believe, is as stanch a Churchman as the best of his brethren, although he scouts the idea of the boundary system—that is com pelling persons surrounded by Church es t o a tt en d th e one marked out for them, whether they like the preacher or not ; but he is supposed to be less hostile to his Majesty's Government—refuses to go " the whole hog," and that, of course, is quite enough. If the Westminster election was blow the first, the " Pampleteering War" was studiously intended as blow the second ; and the heroes of such well foughten fields—Sir Francis and the great Doctor—should exchange instanter mutual congratulations. That the divi sion will be telegraphed to head-quarters is a proceeding quite in the sequence of things ; and if Mr. Begg had vo lunteered as the bearer of the dispatch the chances are that his services would have been requited by the honour of knighthood. Dr. Chalmers is too old, and we do hope conscientious a man, to think of embracing the " thirty-nine articles," although there is no " impassable gulf" in the shape of " black prelacy" now ; but Mr. Begg is young, active, figures well on a platform, and personally at least has been so fond of the mount-merit or locomotive principle, during his whole career, that his noviciate past, and his po litical friends in power, we see nothing to prevent him be coming a bishop —a step of promotion which would surely satisfy even his ambition. The excellent Professor Welsh conducted his case manfully and sell ; but he was over powered by numbers, and in every respect treated as roughly as a coughed down speaker in the House of Com mons. But we make " the Pontiff" welcome to his " ty rant majority," and a cause so sensitive that it absolutely shrunk from and shirked discussion. In the minority we recognise many honoured names, not excepting stanch Tories, of whom Dr. Lee may well feel proud. TIIE ETON BLOCK.---It is not generally known, that the refractories at this celebrated school are " brought to the block," a huge lump of wood, over which the instruments of punishment are usually suspended in terrorem. A short time since, the block and other apparatus suddenly disappeared, the hall having been forced open, as rumour alleges by a cer tain Noble Marquis, to whom no doubt the young Etonians are particularly obliged. It seem 9, however, that Dr. Ilaw trey, the master, was determined nut be debarred of his cus tomary exercises in flagellation. On Monday, a new block, with a nice assortment of rods, suitable for all ages, were ob tained, and speedily put in requisition, to the no small morti fication of the community. Extract tom Mr. Fox's speech in moving for a new writ for the borough of Tavistock, on the accession of Lord John Russell to the dukedom of Bedford I will conclude with applying to the present occasion a beautiful passage from the speech of a very young orator (the Hon. \V. Lamb, now Lord Melbourne.) It may be thought, perhaps, to savour too much of the sanguine views of youth to stand the test of a rigid philosophical inquiry, but it is at least cheering and consolatory ; and that in this instance it may be exempli fied, is, 1 am confident, the sincere wish of every man who hears me. Crime, says he, is a curse only to the period in which it is successful ; but virtue, whet he ) fortunate or other wise, blesses not only its own age but remotest posterity, and is as beneficial by its example as by its immediate effect.— From a Prize Essay, by the lion. W. Lamb, read at Trinity College, Cambridge, in 1798. A most impudent fraud has lately been committed in the neighbourhood of Nottingham by a swindler, represent ing himself to be deputed by some Noblemen, landed pro prietors in that part of the country, to acquaint their tenants that the steward had been dismissed from the agency, and that he was authorised to collect the rents and arrears then due. Unfortunately in several instances he succeeded in duping the country people. In one case the widow of a respectable farmer paid him 1001., another tenant 30/., and several ethers upon adjoining estates were simil ar ly elafrancle(l.

The plaintiff was the author of a poem in Italian with that title, which he after wards dramatised into an Opera with music by Da Costa, the director of music at the Italian Opera. Previously to the recent performance of that Opera in this country, the plaintiff caused an English translation of the words to be made for the purpose of sale. Shortly after its production, however, he discovered that the defendant had printed and was circulating a libretto of the Opera in Italian, with an English translation, which was a palpable piracy of the translation belonging to the plaintiff. His HONOUR granted the injunction. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, MAr 27. 7 , 0 S T Elt V. STEELE. This was action of assumpsit upon three policies of insu rance, effected on the brig Elizabeth, which was tried for the second time before the Lord Chief Justice during the sittings after last Hilary Term, when a verdict was entered for the plaintiff for 4261., the full amount claimed. The first policy bore date on the 21st of April 1834, and was on the freight to be earned in a voyage from Sierra Leone or the ports on the coast of Africa to any port in the United Kingdom : the second, dated on the 19th of June, was on the brig itself, value 2,000/., at 5 per cent., for the same voyage ; and the third, dated the Bth August, in the same year, was also a policy on the vessel, at six guineas per cent. The defence set up was, that the brig was unsea worthy, and had been insufficiently manned. Mr Sergeant WILDE, fir the defendant, had obtained a rule nisi for a new trial last Term, on the ground that the verdict was against evidence ; and that rule came on for argument to-day. Mr. Sergeant TADDY, for the plaintiff, was heard against the rule this morning. The Court was occupied until two o'clock, when their Lordships rose to meet the other Judges in the Exchequer Chamber. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, MAY 27. EVANS V. CHESTER. In this case an action had been brought against the de fendant, Mary Ann Chester. Judgment was entered up, and execution issued against her by that name, she being at the time the writ of summons was issued out a femme sole. After the writ purchased, but before execution was issued upon the judp, , inent, she became covert, having married a man named Sutton. The capias ad salisfaciendum was issued against h2r on the 13th of February last, under which she was at present in the custody of the Sheriff of Somer setshire. Mr. DOWLING, upon an affidait that there was no mar riage settlement, had obtained a rule nisi to discharge her out of custody. Mr. WATSON showed cause.—Rule discharged. SAMUEL V. PERKINS AND OTHERS. This was an action of tasumpsit for goods sold and deli vered, which was tried before Mr. Justice Matteson, at the last Assizes for Liverpool, when plaintiff obtained a verdict for 8401. The plaintiff was a merchant in British North America, and the defendants were the owners of a brig called the Britannia, which had been chartered by a per son named Picard, of Miramichi. The consignee, for some reason, did not supply the vessel with a cargo, in conse quence of which the captain purchased from the plaintiff a quantity of timber, at what turned out to be a high price. The vessel was subsequently lost at sea, and the timber dis persed. The captain and crew were picked up, and at length arrived in Liverpool. The present action was brought to recover the price of the timber. Mr. Alexander had obtained a rule to set aside the verdict for the plaintiff as being against evidence, and proceed to a new trial, against which Mr. CRESWELL this day showed cause.—Rule absolute. CO.NSISTORY COURT, Mall, 27. COCIIRANE V. COCHRANE. This is a suit for restitution of conjugal rights, promoted by the husband against the wife. The party cited not hating appeared, the promoter was beard ►n person this day, and prayed the Court to condemn Mri. Cochrane in contempt. The Learned Judge in rejecting, on legal grounds, the prayer, had received a letter from Mr. Cochrane with re spect to the suit now before the Court, and in the most de decided manner expressed his regret at any parly hating so far forgotten himself a s t o wr i te to a judge of any Court of justice, and by statements made out of Court to attempt to influence his official opinion. He trusted that such con duct would never be repeated. BRUERg V. BRUERE. This is a suit for divorce, on the grounds of adultery, promoted by Mr. William Sadler Bruere against Harriet, his wife. The libel having been admitted, an allegation was offered on behalf of the party cited, alleging acts of adul tery against the husband, and pleading that be was aware of and cormived at his wife's guilt, which, alter being re forwal, was also admitted. The question now brought to the consideration of the Court was with respect to the al lotment of alimony pendente lite. Dr, bAMS, on behalf of the wife, trusted that, not withstanding it was set up that the promoter of this suit did not possess ono farthing, having lately passed through the Insolvent Court, the Judge would be pleased to give some allowance of alimony to Mrs. Bruerc, to keep her from starvation during the course of proreedings. The Learned JUDGE was not competent to make such an order ; hut, considering that th© party cited was entitled to a small allowance, he would, under the circumstances of the case, stay the proceedings till some offer should be made by the party proceeding. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. Saturday, a black man, born at St. Kitt's, was brought before the LORD MAYOR, charged with having deserted his wife and child. The defendant, who speaks the English language as•well as a native, said that his name was Bar dolph, and that he was cook on board a Hamburgh steamer. The parish officers of the district •to which he had left his wife and child chargeable stated that the defendant had, a few years ago, married his present wife, who was an Irishwoman, and had, it was supposed, taken her to Ham tmrgh, where he supported her and two children, besides the infant at her breast ; Lot that in consequence of th e jealousy of tho woman, be brought her over to London, with one of the children, and regularly dropped her within the walls of London, with a ,:trong recommendation to the Lord Mayor,:;Q. the common parent of all desolate papsons, black, white, or whitey brown. - As sie.nee,;,,sitarity became A casual claimant upon the pariQ,4, it became the duty of overseers to keen ',ooit•out for the cook upon his vi its to this Nl:a, akierhe was accordingly seized on I,4nard th steamer, althou4ll .he had burOled Glt ilmono•,t, the .IpOT, GUILDHALL.

Tho prisonvr said he' was in:zocent of the charge, but gave so unsataictory cn account of hiS Lying in London, that Alderman Cowan- said he would remand him for a few days, to give the officers time to look after the other man. M A RLB ORO UG H- STREET. Three journeymen barbers, Barrin7ton, Rice, and Jen were brought before Mr. CHAMBERS and Mr. CONANT, charged by a brother shaver named Dingley, with an assault. Dingley was professionally attended by Mr. Flower, and th e d e f en d ants were advised by Mr. Wing field. The complainant wished to perfect himself in the whole mystery of hair-clipping and chin-scraping, . and he agreed to give Mr. Perry, perruquier, of the Burlington Arcade, 201. to initiate him. Shortly after .he had been inducted int() the new situation a demand was made by his brother shavers of 5/. as his footing. The demand appearing quite unreasonable, complainant refused to pay it, but he said - he would give a couple of sovereigns in order to preserve peace. He was told that ever tyro who wished to become "recherche" in the suds and scissors line complied with a custom foUnded on an immemorial and imprescriptible usage ; and, if he refused to pay the footing, he could not he allowed to work in the same shop with the regulars. Com plainant persisted in his refusal, and the next mornin g on coming to work he found scra w l e d on the shop wall a figure pendant on a gibbet, with his own christian and surname, and the gentle hint of "gone to Coventry," -W'ritten under it. He continued, in defiance of this warning, to ply the razors and scissors, but his antagonists showed they were re solved he should n o t fi n d hi s seat b e f ore his wig -block a " bed of roses." His combs very speedily became worth less, his brushes. lost their hair with a rapidity which would have set at nought the virtues of the " incomparable Ma cassar," and his razors seemed daily to require the u`se of the grindstone. This was not all ; his clean aprons, when they came from the mangle, were carefully hung• up the chimney to air, by his mischievous tormentors. His new Sunday hat he discovered had been soiled, and also his best coat, which obliged him to_ have the lining removed, and the garment sent to the scourers. Mr. CHAMBERS said it appeared to him very hard that, the complaivant, in addition to the persecution which lie appeared to have sustained, should have his property de stroyed. He wished to know why Mr. Perry had not in t e.fered ? Mr. Perry said the footing was customary, and if lie had interfered to prevent the demand, his men would have left ,him. He was quite willing to pay the complainant back the premium, provided he would quit his shop. Mr. CHAMBERS remarked that it was a singular system for the servants to dictate to the master who he should have in his employ. The complainant then proceeded to state the particulars of the assault, which occurred on Saturday last. The foreman told him he would give him two hours to make up his mind about payinr , the footing, and if h e st ill refused he must prepare to reare the shop. He did refuse, and he was seized by the foreman, upon which a scuffle' en sued, and he was so roughly handled as to occasion him to spit blood. In defence, the foreman said it was quite regular to pay the footing, and the refusal of the complainant to du what was right had led to the subsequent proceedingq. 1-le de nied that any assault had taken place until the defendant had seized an iron weapon, and threatened to viiiihilate any brother barber who should attempt to molt him. Mr. Cumanizas---Wh a t kind °Ea weapon Was it ? De fendant—lt was a pair of lad' s curling tongs. Mr. CHAMBERS—A pair of curling tongs! why, from the manner you spoke A thought it was the poker or the bar of a shutter.

DETEItMINED SUICIDE.-0 11 Saturday a lenoth beed investigati on t oo k p l ace at EasterA-Hotel, Southamp ton street, Covent-garden, before Me. Higgs and a highly re gpect-ele Jury, touching the death of J. Miller, Eso i ., aged 52, a :..an of independent ti tune and very respectable family con nections, residing near Croydon. William Chitty, head waiter in the establishment at the Hotel, depo'sed that a few nights since the deceased, who was a stranger to the house, came i:.to the cotfee-room; about half-past nine o'clock, and asked if he could have a bed, and, being answered in the affirmative, one was shown him on the ground floor, to which he objected, and he ultimately selected one at the top of the house, in which he remained, desiring taitnev, to have his boots cleaned and brought up in the morning. Witness then wished him good night, and went up stairs between 10 and 11 o'clock, to see that the candle was all safe, and he found it had boon extin guished. In the morning the porter took up the boots, and upon entering the room, he found the unfoi tunate gentleman suspended by a silk handkerchief from the bed -post. The jury retuned a verdict of—" Died by hanging himself whila in a state of temporary insanity." A distressing case of manslaughter occurred last week in this county. A number of workmen in a tanuery at Drayton had been enjoying themselves in the evening with a cup of ale, whet, some rough jokes being perpetrated on a workman nam e d J o h n Ray, he, in ord e r to 4'lol any further desire to continue such sport, seized a mallet which lay beside him, and threw it with the intention of its alighting between two men who were standing before him. Unhappily the weapon alighted•on the forehead of his own brottier-in.law,, George Edwards, and so dreadfully injured him, that he sur vived only till the next morning. The afflicted perpetrator of this unwitting crime is committed to our gaol fur trial at the Assizes.—Shrewsbury Chronicle. MELANCHOLY DEATH OF A CLEIMYMAN.-- The Rev.
