In the House of Lords, the proceedings were yes te:day limited to the presentation of several Petitions for the abolition of Church-rates by Lord BROUGHAM and other Peers, and to a motion by the Bishop of EXETER for certain Returns connected with the cor respondence of the Board of Education in Ireland. In the House of Commons, among a mass of Pe titions on various subjects, was a singular one pre sented by Mr. BLACKBURNE from the new Corpora tion of Ludlow. The Petition complained of the removal and pledging of the town-books, deeds, &c. with a Banker to whom they were indebted ; it also charged Mr. LECIIMERE CHARLTON, who was a member of the old Corporation, with being a party to the obnoxious proceedings which formed the subject of the Petitioners' complaint. In answer to a question from Mr. WALLACE, the LORD ADVOCATE said that the Report of the Scotch Law Commission would soon be ready. Lord MORPETH, in answer to an inquiry, stated that he could not say whether the Registration of Vo ters Bill (Ireland) would or would not be brought for ward again. Mr. C. WOOD obtained leave to bring in a Bill for transferring the Packet establishment from the Post office to the Admiralty. The second reading of the Scotch Leasing Bill was postponed. The Court of Session (Scotland) Bill, the Small Debts (Scotland) Bill, and the Recorders' Courts Bill, were severally read a second time. Lord JOHN RUSSELL, in reply to Lord STANLEY, said, that an inquiry into the system of national edu cation in Ireland might, perhaps, advantageously pro ceed in union with the Poor Law question. The same Noble Lord, in reply to the Hon. Member for Berkshire, said that he thought it would be better to let Mr. WALTER'S motion on the subject of the Poor Laws Amendment Act stand for the 20th. Mr. HUME, after some interesting discussion, which will be found in our Parliamentary Report, obtained leave to bring in a Bill for placing the finances of counties under a County Board, elected by the Rate payers. The same Hon. Member also obtained leave to bring in a Bill for regulating Expenses at Elections. Mr. WALLACE moved for various returns, con nected with the General Post-office department. The Grand Jury (Ireland) Bill went into Com- mittee. Mr. BULLER. obtained leave to bring in a Bill, on the subject of trying controverted elections. The expectations of those who believed that one of the great questions in which the Lords and Commons are at issue would have been amicably settled this Session, have been disappointed. The result of the late debate on Ireland leaves no doubt that the Tories and Orangemen, however they may differ on some points, have cordially united on one, and come to the fixed resolution of refusing all redress to the wrongs of seven millions of their fellow-subjects. The insult offered to them last Session in the House of Lords has been deliberately affirmed by the leaders of the party in the Commons. The Irish people now know that they are henceforth to be regarded, not by Lord LYNDIIURST only, but by a majority of the House of Lords, and a large minority of the Commons, as aliens in religion and language, and to be denied those rights and privileges which are considered the birth-right of British subjects. But they have no reason to despair ; on the contrary, the stand could not be made on more advantageous ground, or on a point on which they are more likely to meet with the sympathy and support of the British nation. If 324 members of a House of Commons, elected under the auspices of Sir ROBERT PEEL, making a majority of 86, pronounced them entitled to redress last year, what has occurred in the mean time to diminish their hopes of success ? Nothing. Every circumstance, in fact, has been in their favour. The leader of the Tories now has doubts of the expediency of the measure ; the more violent partisans are furious because any concessions have been made, and have the will, if they have not the power, to withdraw what has already been granted ; but the people of England are firm in the cause, and the people of Ireland, with a unanimity which does them infinite honour, have formed themselves into a union, which every day more and more convinces them of their own power, and which will encourage them to persevere till every wrong is redressed. While this Association exists, what chance have the Tories of resistin g their demands ? And by what possibility can it be put down by force ? If Sir RoBERT PEEL were to come into office to-morrow, and trusting to the " demonstrations" which have been made, and to the shouts of his party, dissolve Parliament, could he have the most distant prospect of getting any House of Commons to pass a Coercion Bill ? Could he in duce this nation to make war on the Irish people, because Catholics and Protestants unite in demanding - , ,This is the only alternative ; but it ' , tett. The Association will re liestion is settled, and Muni and the only effect of pro be to heighten the demands of the Irish people, and ensure for them more exten sive reforms than they at first contemplated. If any degree of credit may be attached to the state ments daily appearing in the French, Helvetian, and German journals, our continental neighbours are pre paring for the spectacle of a war between England and Russia, which shall only terminate in the extension or extermination of liberal principles throughout Europe. According to these authorities, there is manifestly no question of international law to Le previously dis cussed—no room for inquiry on the part of England, or cavil on that of Russia. The British flag has been trampled upon—British power has been despised—a British merchant-ship has been confiscated—and Bri tish merchants have been officially declared to have forfeited their lives for the crimes of smuggling, and a violation of sanitary regulations ; crimes which the owners of the Vixen could not possibly commit, inas much as England had neither recognized the right of Russia to establish a contraband on the Circassian coast, nor to extend a sanitary cordon beyond her re gular potts in the Black Sea. They would also in sinuate that Lord PALMERSTON delays not to bring the subject of the violated honour of Great Britain before Parliament, because he is un acquainted with the responses of the legal oracles of the Crown. The Noble Foreign Secretary, say they, pauses to ascertain the part which France proposes to take in a struggle of European interest, and to sound the several Powers in close alliance and amity with England, respecting the restoration of Polish nationality. In furtherance of such vast designs, di plomatic notes are said to be daily interchanged between the Cabinets of London and Paris, the tone of which bodes no good to the AUTOCRAT. At first the King of the FRENCH was reluctant to take any part in a quarrel which was not of his own seeking; but when Lord PALMERSTON appealed to the evidence of cer tain facts and documents, known only to the Ministers of the Courts of St. James' and the Tuileries, and threatened to make them public if certain courses were not adopted, Louts PHILIPPE at once declared for England against Russia. These, and countless other rumours to the same effect, are spreading like wild-fire over the Continent. As we know no more what steps our Government is taking, previous to the bringing of the question of the capture of the Vixen by Russia before Parliament than does any other of our Contemporaries, we shall not offer a syllable either in confirmation or refutation of such reports ; nor would we notice them them at all, but to apprise our fellow -countrymen of the universal excitement to which this wanton attack upon the Majesty of Great Britain has given rise. The fact has been heard with astonishment in every part of Europe. It seemed incredible that the Russian Bear could have had the temerity to rouse the British Lion, and in some places the statement was disbelieved— scouted as a gross and clumsy fabrication—before it was confirmed by the evidence of the London Press. We may now with all sincerity affirm, that the eyes not only of Europe, but of America and a great part of Asia, are upon us. Our honour and the liberties of mankind are at stake. Upwards of fifteen millions of Poles implore us to burst their fetters, and to restore them to the blessings of freedom, and the possession of their country. Resent we but the indignity offered our flag as becomes Englishmen, and Poland re-appears —a mighty and independent Kingdom in the heart of Europe. On the contrary, if we give way to Russian aggression in this instance—if we al low it to go forth to the world that Russia dares to trample upon our flag with impunity, —if from the lofty and commanding eminence of guardian of the liberties of nations, England, at the beck of the Barbarian of the North, descends to the posture of a supplicant for justice—then, in the name of consistency, let us doff' the habiliments of a civilized liberty, and unite with the Russian boors in extending the iron rule of the CzA It from the White Sea to the Persian Gulf, and from the Baltic to the Great Southern Ocean. This will mercifully unde ceive the Powers that have hitherto confided in the generous protection of Great Britain. It will convince the Poles that their fate is fixed—that all that remains for them is to reconcile themselves to a slavery which they cannot shake off; and it will open the eyes of the Sultan MA HMOUD to the dangers of the precipice over which his mistaken reliance upon the friendship of Eng land is hurrying him. Should the honour of England be tarnished in the affair of the 1 ixen, the triumphs of Russia in the East will be such as to astonish even her own statesmen. At the moment at which we write, her agents are at work in every corner of Eu ropean Turkey, inciting the inhabitants to take up arms against their SOVEREIGN, and offering to supply them with money and arms sufficient to withstand the vengeance of the Porte. The train is already laid, and should she triumph over England her first com mand will be to fire it. Wherever insurrection shows itself she will be present with her forces, to take forcible possession of the disputed territory. This is the scheme which she now meditates, to prove which we need only refer to the following extract from the Augsburg Gazette, received yesterday : " The Porte has received within the last few months ac counts from different provinces of Turkey in Europe, disclos ing the existence of an association similar to that of the hetairie. This news has excited an apprehension of a rising of the Christian inhabitants against the Turkish Government in Thessaly, Albania, Macedonia, Bulgaria, and Itoumelia. It appears admitted on all sides that this society owes its origin not only to the arts of persuasion, but that sums of money had been distributed with the sante vietv in the abovenarned countries. The authorities have not as yet been able to discover the fountain head and central point of the Association. Some say Odessa, others Alexandria, and according to other conjec tures the 3lorea was the central point. Whatever may be the result of these suppositions, a yeneral impression seems ayain entertained that the dominion of the Turks will sooner or later cease altogether in Europe. Although the Greeks have been favoured by new reforms, it is quite evident that they are anxious to be governed by a Christian Prince, and that they will , leave nothing untried to arrive at this object. On the other hand they arc the sole promoters of industry and com merce. It is therefore more than probable that they will finally succeed in monopolizing all the riches, and with them the entire preponderance, in the country." The machinations of Russia are here plainly denounced by the leading organ of opinion in Austria. There is no mistaking the schemes of the Imperial Cabinet— no misunderstanding the name of the Christian Prince whom the Greeks are instructed to demand as their Sovereign. The project is evidently ripe and nothing is wanting to crown it with success, but the appearance of pusillanimity on the part of Great Britain. Our Government has now a glorious opportunity of immor talizing itself. A war is forced upon it, which, if once declared, must terminate in the downfall of tyranny in Europe. The whole of the Paris papers of Thursday have been received. The floniteur contains the following telegraphic communications : " BAYONNE, FEB. 7, 10 o'ClocK.—On the 3d inst. Gene ral Ribeiro reached Portugalette with two divisions, the strength of which was 9,000 men. lie was hourly expected at St. Sebastian to commence operations on Tolosa and the Bidassna. " FEBRUARY 8, 19. o'CLocK AT NOON.—General Rebeiro arrived at St. Sebastian on the 6th with 6,000 men. lle was yesterday to have occupied Renteria and Aiza. " PERPIGNAN, FEB. 7.-200 Carlists who had invaded Lyria and violated our (the French) territory, were surrounded yes terday on the neutral road by six companies of the 26th Re giment of Infantry, and 30 Chasseurs a Cheval of the 11th Regiment, under the command of the chief of battalion Froi defont. These insurgents, of whom four were officers, laid down their arms, and were sent under a strong escort to Mont Louis." We may now look forward to the commencement of a final struggle in the Basques. There are now from twelve to fifteen thousand good troops at San Sebas tian, under the command of Generals RIBEIRO and EVANS ; twenty-two thousand at Bilboa, under Es. PARTERO ; and from eight to twelve thousand under SAARSFIELD, ALAIX and IRRIBARREN, at Pampc lima and on the Ebro. With such a force the QUEEN'S Generals ought to make short work with the half starved, ill-disciplined troops that compose the strength of the Pretender's army. _ M. DUPIN, President of the Chamber of Depu ties, has addressed a long and very severe letter to Marshal CLAUSE', hi answer to an explanation de manded by the Marshal of certain words used by the President in a Lecture delivered before the KING at the Institute of France. The words—which we copy from The Sun of Thursday—of which Marshal CLAU SEL sought an explanation, were these :—" And we extend its power (the power of France) even in that country where Rome, already become venal, had the misfortune to send CALPURNIUS and to meet Ju- GURTIIA"---Whiell words Marshal CLAUSEL'S friends interpreted as a censure upon his Administration. M. DUPIN, in his answer, defends his use of the cited expressions, and denounces the policy of France in seeking to extend her African territory. The subju gation of Africa was " a misfortune for Rome," em phatically observes the President ; " for from this war sprung MARI us and SYLLA, both factious leaders, who by turns deluged their country with blood, and destroyed its Constitution." This is rather significant. The President, after connecting the past with the present, continues—" I do not Isesitate, Sir, to de clare to you candidly, that I consider our colonial set tlement in that country as an affliction for France. For seven years this country has devoured our men and our money. Two hundred millions of francs (eight millions sterling) have already been sacrificed, with out any good result. * * 'I am convinced that we shall never do any good in Africa. * * I will add, that the badness of the system adopted, the incoherence of plans, and the wrongs of which several branches of the Administration are accused, arc further motives which cause me to deplore this fatal legacy of the Restoration, and all the charges with which it bur dens us." In reply to this letter, the Marshal writes, " I did not ask your opinion, Sir, of the ancient or modern history of Numidia ; but whether, by these words (re -quoting those of his former letter), you alluded to me, or the acts of my administration. I ask an affirmative or negative answer, and I have a right to expect it from your loyalty." This letter is dated the Bth inst, so that by Monday we may expect to receive the President's rejoinder. We are very confident that Marshal CLAUSEL is sincerely sorry that he troubled M. DIJPIN on the subject of his African career. The decided opinions expr esse d b y the President will make a deep impression on the public mind of France. It is reported that the KING has consented to the withdrawal of the project of law for the disjunction of the civil and military tribunals. The following are extracts from the - journals PARIS, FEB. 9. Ve have received this morning the fol lowing letter from our Correspondent at Toulon:— " Toulon, Feb. 5. " It was pompously announced that 13 regiments were des tined for the approaching expedition to Constantine, and those who were acquainted with the new Ministry certainly had rea son to be astonished at its having come to a resolution which was not a half measure. Now it seems that it is not 13 but only 2 regiments that were to be sent to Africa—the Ist and 48th of the Line. The Government has calculated that there are now more than 25,000 thousand troops in the province of Algiers, viz., the 2nd and 17th Light Infantry; the 11th, 25th, 24th, 27th, 62d, and 633 of the Line, 1,800 men each 3 regiments of Chasseurs of Africa l,BOO Foreign Legion, 1 battalion Sharp Shooters of Africa, ditto Two battalions of Light Infantry of Africa Engineers and Artillery Zouayes and Spahis 23,600 " The Government has therefore thought, that by sending two regiments, amounting to 4,800 men effective, and to rein force the regiments in Africa, also 2,400 artillery and engi neers, and 1,000 pontoneers and workmen (in all 10,700), which would make the total farce of the whole army 34,300 men, 15,000 men might be taken for the expedition against Constantine ; only it has been forgotten that there are 3,000 sick, convalescent, or absent on furlough, and that the new troops would leave 1,000 men in the hospitals before they would be inured to the climate, which would reduce the effec tive force to 3,000 men. " Constantine may be taken with 15,000 men ; but how are the Arabs of the other provinces to be kept in check, if only 15,000 men are left to guard Algiers, Bona, Bougia, Oran, and the Camps ? There are not even enough for the garrisons. It is to be hoped that the Chambers will force the Ministry to modify its plans." Marshal Soult has returned to Paris, and the reports of his return to the Ministry is again spread. A journal says that the entrance of the Marshal into the Administration will be officially announced to-morrow (the 9th). We are far from denying the wish of the Doctrinaires to attach Marshal Soult to their party ; but we believe we are not mistaken in saying that nothing has yet been done to this effect.

MONEY MARKET. FRIDAY EVENING.-Much discussion has taken place to-day in the city, on the extent and bearings of the failures already known, but they have not as yet led to any further mischief, has been a c n o i s m .e p x a e r h a a t u i comparatively q ha u , i . e e t a o s s n u e m i e n d e a v e y t t d e e r p a a r ic t i p m e and a more tranquil feeling has therefore p reva il e d . The day e a n ra t ne o e f m o T n e h y e b f o u r s e i i n g e this afternoon, particularly on Paris. For Hamburg and Am sterdam the difference is trilling compared with the last foreign post-day, but there is more firmness in the quotations. The attempt making in the United States to procure the re peal of the restraining law by which all private bank s an d dis counts by private individuals are prohibited, has been attended with some circumstances well worthy of general noti ce . Th e aim has been on the part of the corporate banks to prevent alto gether the introduction of any Act to repeal the restraining law, but not having succeeded in this, their next object has been to annex such conditions to the repeal as would rende r it of little avail, and leave to them the same ascendancy still in the money transactions of the union. Hence it has j a n ss c u o m n : e d ci a u l e l r t:e e, bet:an racters of a Bill drawn up to protect the corporate banking interest, instead of giving increased facilities to the mer feele'lhiengsehcaosn'd section t ve i n an te t d s, a a g n a d in m st uc ti l i i e h m id e ig as n u a r u e t . of the Bill, for example, establishes an invidious distinction between this and any other department of business, by requiring the person who opens an office of discount and deposit t s o ee r t e i p e o u r p t la to ees th a e clerk of the city or county his name, residence , and the amo un t of capital he intends to employ. The third still stronger impediment to free action, by forbidding him to issue or circulate any other notes than, those of the safety-fund banks of the State. According to this provision, the private banker cannot accommodate the customer about to travel with any of the notes of the States through which he is to pass, and any infringement of the law is made punishable with fine and imprisonment. The private banker, or the keeper of an office of discount and deposit, is further prohibited from resorting for accommodation to any banks already established ; and it is even made penal in such banks to afford him accommodation. They are also to be restrained frem buying land, dealing in goods, or trading in stock, and their business confined exclusively to re ceiving deposits, lending money, and taking paper on personal instead of landed security, for the loans made. These and other had so far perverted the ori,ginal intention of those ssho had urged on the measure for establishing discount and deposit banks, that they felt little interest in carrying it through, and characterized the Bill as only meant, in effect, to increase the power of the chartered banks, —Times, LLOYD'S SNIPPING.-(THIS DAY.)

The Paris Papers, by the express, state that towards the close of the Bourse, it was stated as positive that Marshal Soult was to be in the ministry. A Paris evening journal states that it would be officially announced the following day. We have received Singapore Papers to the 23d Oct - ; The following are extracts:— " Our Canton correspondent writes on the 30th Sept., that a report was prevalent that the missing ship Hamoody was at Manilla, dismasted. " CANTON, SEPT. 28.—Opium—For the last month our Opium Market has been exceedingly dull, and we do not be lieve that a single chest has been sold by foreigners during that time for cash. The Chinese have much difficulty in clear ing their time bargains.—Malwas have been obliged to sub mit to considerable reduction from the nominal price to ob tain the needful. Sales of the very best chests have been made by them at 720 drs., and the nominal prem. is 730 drs. ; but those holding good opium, of which it is believed there is a small portion in the remaining stock, are not willing to sell at this rate. For the Bengal drug there is no demand, and prices quite nominal ; 760 dollars for Patna; 680 dollars for Benares ; since the Governor's reply to the Opium memorial, there has been some anxiety to buy at two and three months, and as much as 30 dollars to 40 have been given above the quoted rates for such bargains—paying 50 dollars bargain money. " EXCHANGE ON LONDON.—The shutting of the Company's Treasury * and the intimation that no more advances will be made this season, except to those who have already applied for them, would have a material effect on the rate of ex change, raising it 4s. 10d. certainly—and probably higher". We have received Demerara Papers to the 22d Dec. They contain a Government notice and regulations for apprenticed labourers, who are to be entitled to the usual Christmas holi days, formerly allowed in the colony to slaves. THE FUNDS.

A little mine has lately been set on foot at New lyn, near Penzance, called Wheal Newlyn ; and not being able to open their adit on the course of the lode, in conse quence of a fish cellar over it, the miners were compelled to drive in another direction to come on the lode, when they found a cavity in the earth about eighteen feet in length, with water about a foot deep, in which was disco vered a quantity of fish of the conger eel species, although there appears to be no inlet or outlet for the water. It is supposed that a mine was worked on the spot about 150 years since, but how the fish got there is unexplained, as it is upwards of 70 feet from high water marks. We have seen some of the fish, which are about eight or nine inches long, and it is supposed that there arc many large ones in the same place.— West Briton. A most providential escape from immediate death occurred on Saturday morning last, at the colliery belonging to Messrs. Bennett and Co., Brampton Moor, near Chester field. The colliers, consisting of about ten in number, in cluding one or two boys, were going to their work, and were all but in the very act of descending, when a most tremendous rush of water was heard into the pit, which in a few minutes filled up the shaft to the very amazing depth of thirty feet of water. The usual time for the men to go down, was half an hour earlier than they were ready to descend on this morning, though the delay, we are informed, arose from no real neces sity ; no particular reason appeared to exist why, on this very morning, they should be later than usual.—Derby Reporter. - - Oa Thursday evening, between nine and ten o'clock, whilst Mrs. Rider, of Guildford-street, Russell-square, accom panied by her two daughters, was sitting in the carriage, at the door of a house in Gower-street, where sho was going to an evening party (the coachman having left his box for the purpose of knocking), the horses became startled, and set off at full speed. Fortunately, on turning the corner into Bed ford-square, one of the horses fell, which afforded an oppor tunity of stopping the vehicle, and extracting the terrified ladies from their perilous situation, otherwise the most fearful consequences might have ensued. David Morris, Esq., late banker of Carmarthen, having acceded to the requisition of a most numerous body of electors of that borough and Llanelly, to offer himself as a candidate at the next dissolution of Parliament, has nearly completed a most successful canvass of the consti tuency. No doubt now remains of Mr. Morris's return ; and his friends, accordingly, are in the highest spirits at the speedy prospect of wiping off the disgrace of being mis represented by a Tory.—Bristol Gazette. THE INYLUEI4ZA.—The epidemie still continues its ravages in this district, but for the last few days its course has not been so rampant and uncontrolable as during the previous three weeks.—York Courant. MORTALITY IN EDINBURGII.—It 1S painful to have to notice the extraordinary number of deaths in this city in the course of last month (January), in consequence of the prevailing epidemic, as will appear from the following state ment, which maybe relied on as authentic, the necessary infor mation having been procured from the records of the different burying. grounds : In the month of December, 1835, the total number of interments was 4OO Ditto, 1836, ditto Less in December, 1836 In January, 1836, total number of interments ... 413 Ditto, 1837, ditto Increase in the month of January, 1837... ...... 323 The remains of the late Sir Ferdinand Acton, Bart., will be brought from Paris for interment in the family mau soleum at Aldenham, Shropshire. On Saturday last, about five o'clock, three fellows stole from the shop of the Union eating-house, in Union street, Borough, a large piece of beef—they were pursued by Mr. Galloway, and one of them was secured and taken before Mr. Trail, at Union Hall, and remanded till Tues day, when he was discharged, a link being wanted in the evidence to convict him. On the same evening three legs of pork were taken from the door of Mr. Harman, in the same street, which they got clear off with ; and on Tues day evening 541 b. of beef were taken from a shop in White street, in the same neighbourhood. A person who resided in the Gallowgate died re cently, under the following painful circumstances :—He was bled in the arm, and the incision carefully bandaged. On leaving, the surgeon left instructions that the bandage should be removed at night, and another substituted. This, it appears, had been neglected, and the original bandage having burst, the blood flowed profusely. The afflicted in dividual then rose from his bed, but the bedroom door having been locked from the outside, and nobody within hearing, he went to the window. Here, it would seem to appear, from one or two panes being broken, that he had tried to make his painful case known ; but, alas! nobody heard him, and in the morning he was found a lifeless corpse, and the floor covered with blood.—Aberdeen Herald. The cause of the rupture of the intended marriage of the King of Naples with his cousin the Princess Marie of Orleans, has been traced to the Duke de Salerno (uncle of the King of Naples, and brother of the Queen of the French), " who," a private letter which is now before us states, " has the greatest possible influence over the young Sovereign, whom he has not suffered to go out of his sight these four years." The reason why the Duke de Salerno thus acted is not stated, but the fact itself is beyond doubt. --.4lfornina Paper, COURT OF KING'S BENCH. LIBEL. DE ROOS V. CUMMING. (Continued from The Sun of yesterday.) Evidence of Mr. Graham, jun., continued :—On the morning of the 25th of June, they might have seen his Lordship's hands below the table (or a moment, but they made no remark. Where there are three tables of an evening, and that a gentleman plays at two of them, I cannot state the party distinctly. Captain Alexander never played at whist with Lord De Roos after the I tith February. There has been some unpleasantness since the formation of the New Club, by my beimg called upon to restore to the list members of the old Club. I declined to do so. Mr. Brook Greville was one of the gentlemen who applied to be restored, but I declined. Re-examined—There had lately,heen deep play, which greatly inconvenienced the banker, and subjected him to heavy losses—gentlemen losing more than was convenient was sometimes a reason with them for withdrawing their name from the Club. By Lord DENNIAN.--I omitted no names from the new Club on the ground of unfair play, or the suspicion of it. I think Mr. Higgins only played once with Lord De Roos after the 16th February. There were three tables only twice during the season. I understood the question Mr. Bicknell wanted to put to the waiters was, whether they had seen the cards marked on the Ist of July, and I said I could answer that they had told me they had. I made no complaint to Lord De Roos, as the circumstance was well known to several members of the Club, and it was a liberty I dare not take. One old member, who suspected that cards were marked, advised me to dissolve the Club, and he would pay me the subscriptions I should have to refund. Another member said he would be obliged to withdraw if the Club was not dissolved. The cards, when done with, are given by the waiter to me at the bar, and they are put into a drawer until disposed of. The cards of the 13th Feb. were put to the number of abotit 18 or 20 packs, in a drawer. The cards now handed up to the Jury were played with on the 19th of June, and they are marked. Joseph Hunt, card-manufacturer—We supply cards to Gra ham's Club. The aces and kings are never marked as they are in the pack now handed me, when sent from our esta blishment. Wm. Graham, sen. I ant eighty-three years old, and have been master of the Club about 37 years. My son is now master, but I take an interest in its management. I recollect some cards being placed last year in a private drawer of my son's. I heard they were marked. It was a person named Mudie, who lives in Coventry-street, who bought the cards as second-hand. That was in my son's absence. Several persons came to purchase the used cards, and I can't say positively to whom they were sold. William Graham, jun., re-examined—Mr. Payne was a member of the new Club, but withdrew of his own accord. He was one of the gentlemen who played deeply in the old Club. Others who played deeply in the old Club were admitted into the new. Hugh Brabazon Higgins—l am an officer of the 15th Dra goons, and became a member of Graham's Club in February, 1836. I was at Brighton about Christmas, 1835. There is a cllib at Brighton to which the members of certain London clubs are admitted. I saw Lord De Roos there, and played whist with him and Major Fancourt. I forget the fourth per son. A person named Holmes was betting with Major Fan court. I observed, when Lord De Roos was dealing, a very unusual motion. After they were cut, they were taken off the table and lowered a little below its level. I was induced to sus pect something from impressions that had been previously made upon my mind. Lord de Roos turned up an honour, and he won the game subsequently. I looked at the cards after we had done playing, and found some of the higher honours marked. I communicated that to Major Fancourt, and after wards to Mr. Holmes, who said he would not receive the bets he had won. Mr. Holmes is now at Elsineur, in Denmark. When I came to town I mentioned to Capt. Alexander what had occurred at Brighton. After that I was at Graham's ac cidentally one morning, and was asked to look at cards which were marked in a similar manner to those at Brighton. I after wards played at Graham's Club, and two or three times with Lord de Roos, but that was accidental. When I found him playing, I did not make one of the party. Cross-examined by Sir Was. FOLLETT—I may have played with Lord de Roos five or six times at Graham's. I think there was only one occasion on which I sat down with him to play without having cut in. I may have been his partner, but do not recollect. We played for 51. and some bets, but not heavy. I may have won occasionally, but lost by the season. I played at the club till the beginning of June. After I had observed Lord de Roos's conduct at Brighton, we played two or three rubbers. I dont recollect having had Lord de Roos for a partner. Major Fancourt is at present in London. Major Fancourt did not believe the story when I told it to him. He looked at the cards. ...- Captain John Alexander, Commander in the Navy—l have been 20 years a member of Graham's, and was one of the Committee of Management last year. I had communication in Feb. last with Mr. Higgins, and mentioned what he had told me to th e master of the house. I was present with Mr. Higgins next morning, when the cards were examined. Most, or all the aces and kings, were marked ; the mark seemed to have been made with the thumb-nail in the face of the card, which raised a slight mark on the back. Graham produced four other packs of cards which were all marked in the same way. I attended seven or eight mornings afterwards, and found the cards marked in the same way. I never played with Lord De Roos since ; when he came to the table where I was playing to cut in, I always left. Cross-examined by the ATTORNEY-GENERAL-.—l have been 2( years on half-pay, and have been a good deal at Graham's. I have played a good deal, but have not made it an occupation. It amused me a good deal. lam not a member of Crock ford's— my name was on the list more than once. As they did not admit me, I should suppose they could not admit me ; I have repeatedly spoken to one of the Committee of Management. Play has been my occupation ; and if in town I have seldom missed being at Graham's, and have played from three to five hours before dinner , and four or five hours generally after dinner. I have played all night.-- ( Laughter.) I made as good a dinner as I could get, but never dined on boilod chicken and lemonade. I dislike lemonade.—(Much laughter.) I have been very successful— I have been a winner all my life. I was a member of the new Club, but withdrew in consequence of a vote come to in Corn. mittee. My favourite game is piquet, and I was generally successful. I have played whist also very frequently. I saw the marked cards in the morning with Graham. He generally showed us the cards in another room where the light was better. It was not because the light was better, but because the gentlemen were liable to come in. The marks were pointed out first by Mr. Higgins, and then I observed them. I thought there was every reason to believe that they had been marked by Lord De Roos. I was a me m b er o f the Committee, which consisted of thirteen. I communicated the circumstance to at least seven of them, but Ito steps were taken till the end of the season. I saw Mr. Higgins play after wards with Lord De Roos, perhaps twic e . I th i nk five pound points deep play. I believe the largest s um I ever won at a sitting was 7001., of which I handed over one half to my partner. I do not recollect winning so much as 1,600/ in any one year. Expecting that I would be asked, I looked out, and for the last twenty years I think I am a better man by ten thousand pounds than if I had never played. Much laughter.) Within the last two years I have lost 1,8001. There were two gentlemen excluded from the new Club, and I thought, with others, that Graham was not authorized in excluding them; and I pledged myself, if the Committee decided against Graham in so doing, that I wbuld leave the Club ; they did so report, and I withdrew I am a member of th e U n i te d S ervice and the Union Clubs': I have never abstained from wine when playing. Mr. Higgins recalled.— I have been present when Mr. Holmes has won consid era bl e sums o f money. l am a member of Graham's New Club. Francis Alexander Grant—l reside in Munster-terrace, Regents-park. I am a member of Graham's Club, and often played with Lord de Ross. I never knew of the cards being marked, no never marked them. Mr. Somes—l am a member of Grahams', and occasion ally played whist there. I never marked the cards. Colonel Bailey—l was a member of Graham's Club last year. I played occasionally, but never marked the cards. Robert Seyton—l was a member ,of Grahams' Club last year, but never marked the cards. John M'Taggart gave similar evidence. J. Buck, Major John Rainey, Isaac Newton Wigney, John Harris, William Casey, and Robert M'Mullen, all members of Graham's, were asked the same qnestions, and gave the same answers. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL understood that his Learned Friend was now about to give evidence -of reports, which he contended was admissible in the present case. It was held by Baron Wood, that where the issues were justification, the de fendant could not go into evidence of reports, as it would be difficult to rebut it, and because it was bad on account of its generality. Sir Wm. FOLLETT on the same side submitted that the de fendant had no right to go into rumours affecting the character of Lord de R o os, an matt er.d it was their duty to t a k e his Lordship ' s pini the Mr. Thessiger, Mr. Alexander, and Mr. Watson, having contended, on the other hand, that evidence of reports and rumours ought to be received, Lord DENMAN expressed his opinion that it should be, but that it should not be made more general than was absolutely requisite. Lord Reay was very well acquainted with Lord de Roos. For some time previous to the year 1836 there had been ru mours of unfair on the part of the plaintiff. ' Brooke Greville was a member of Graham's club, and had been so for many years. Was very intimate with Lord de Roos. Used frequently to play with him. He, with Mr. Charles Greville, &c., wrote the anonymous letter to the plain tiff, after his (the plaintiff's) unfair play had been discovered, in hope that he would by it be deterred fr om cont i nuing that course of conduct. Lord de [loos did discontinue it for some time ; but, at last, the cards were marked again. After that he neva. sat down to play at the same table with Lord de Roos. Honourable Fred. Byng—Remembered a letter being writ ten by Charles Greville to Lord de Roos. It was put into witness's hand, to peruse. It was addressed to the plaintiff, at Stutgard. Cross-examined—Carried it to the Foreign Office. Brooke Greville re-examined by the ATTORNEY-GP.NRRII. Lost more than 3,0001. by playing in 1828. Had private property of his own. Did not entirely subsist on his winnings by play. TnasswEn here begged to ask his Lordship, whether this would not be a convenient time to leave off, as there was no chance of concluding that evening, he having a great number more witnesses to examine. It was then seven o'clock. Lord DENMAN—It will be advisable to leave off here. in the coursu' tho dy, i.i addition to the celebrated and distinguished individauls already mentioned as being }:resent at this extraordinary trial, there were also on the Bench Lord Lyndhurst, Earl Clare, &c. The Court rose at seven o'clock. It is understood that there arc upwards of twenty witnesses still to be examined on behalf of the defence. (THIS DAY.) Lord DENMAN took his seat on the Bench this morning at half-past nine o'clock. The Court, as yesterday, was crowded to excess. The examination of witnesses in the above cause was then proceeded with. Mr. John Harcourt Sorrell examined by Mr. TitEsstuEe 7 I live in Old Burlington -street. I have been a member of Graham's Club about 30 years. I know Lord Do Roos. Before 1836 I have heard reports of unfair play by him. In answer to a question from Lord DENMAN, the witness said he had heard the reports for some years. Edward Brown—l am the'eard accountant of the Travellers' Club. It is my duty to keep a book, in which I enter the names of the members who play. I place the cards on the table in the Government wrappers, with the string uncut. Lord De Roos played there on the 24th of April. On that night there was a whist table, at which Lord De Roos played; Mr. Brook Greville, Mr. James Spencer, Mr. Baring Wall, Mr. Charles Greville, Lord De Roos, and Mr. Norman M'Donald, made up the party; Mr. George Beutinck came in afterwards, but he did not play with the two first packs. Mr. Baring Wall, Mr. Norman M`Donald, Mr. Bentinck, and Lord De Roos played at the whist table ; Mr. B. Greville and Colonel Anson played at piquet. - After rising from the piquet table, he ( Mr. Greville) came to me and asked to see the cards I had taken from the whist table. We examined them ; the aces and kings were decidedly marked. I should say that the card now produced is the same. Mr. Brooke Greville took them away. Ile told me to look at the cards with which the other gentlemen were playing at whist when they were done, and if they were marked to bring them to him next morning at Fenton's Hotel. I found them marked, and I sealed them, I brought them to Mr. B. Greville next morn ing, who, without opening the seal, desired me to bring them to Mr. Charles Greville. I did so. Lord De Roos played nine times in 1836 at the Travellers' Club—there was a pe culiar mode of dealing adopted by Lord De Roos ; it was by throwing them (the cards) in a slanting direction, and suddenly, from his hand ; he won eight out of the nine times he played at the Tfavellers' Club. Cross-examined by the ATTORNEY-GENERAL—I TlerGr saw marked cards before. I was a courier on the Continent be fore I became Librarian to the Travellers' Club. I was tra velling on the Continent since I was 19 years of age, as a courier and valet. I have been in Paris. I never was in a gaming house there, nor in England. I was not aware that Lord De Roos had a stiffness in the joints of his fingers. I was aware that he had been unwell. On the 20th of April Mr. Brooke Greville played with the first set of cards. I put them in my desk with other cards. Some of them were used by gentlemen in the other room. After I had sealed up the cards which Mr. Greville desired me to notice, I put them in my desk; all the gentlemen had left the room at the time. Mr. B. Greville himself bad brought away the:first set. When. I brought the second set to Mr. Charles Greville, I delivered them to his servant. Mr. Greville has spoken to me often on the subject of the marked cards at the Travellers' Club. On one occasion he brought me to Lord Henry Bentinck, and made me make the same statement as I now make to you; that was in the morning room of the Travellers' Club. The other conversations were in the room where the gentlemen were playing, and sometimes in the drawing -room. Before Mr. Greville went to the Continent, ho told me that it was likely I should be summoned to give evidence. The total amount of Lord De Roos's winnings was 311/, Re-examined—Mr. Greville did not make me make this statement. He requested me to state what I knew in the most gentlemanly manner.—( Laughter.) Mr. Charles Greville examined by Mr. ALEXANDIR—I am a member of the Travellers' Club. Towards the close of the month of April, 1836, some cards were brought to me, I un derstood, by Mr. Brown ; they were sealed. I gave them afterwards to Mr. Brooke Greville. The seal was broken ; otherwise they were in the same state as when I received them. I examined the cards. I thought I saw some slight marks on one or two of them. Subsequently a meeting took place be tween Mr. Brooke Greville, Mr. Cumming, and myself. The subject of discussion generally was how to convey to Lord De Roos the suspicions entertained of his conduct at play. I have been for a long time on terms of great intimacy with him. Something was suggested about an anonymous letter, and it was determined that one should be written to him. I believe it was done. After that I applied to Mr. Cumming for ad vice. I recollect Lord De Roos's leaving England, for the Continent about August. I received a letter in the succeeding month from him. I showed that letter to Mr. Cumming and to Mr. Brooke Greville. I' wrote in reply to Lord De Roos, which letter was founded on the statements made by Mr. B. Greville and Mr. Cumming. That was given to Mr. liyng for the purpose of being forwarded. I received an answer in the first week of October. I have not those letters with me. I dont know what has become of them. After his Lordship's return to England I was the bearer of the message to Mr. Cumming from him. I was desired to tell Mr. Cumming that it was not true that Lord de Roos or his brother had used the language attributed to them abusive of Mr. Cumming ; also that in his opinion Mr. Cumming had acted in a fair and gentleman-like manner towards him. Cross-examined by the ATTORNR -GENERAL—That waa shortly after Lord De Roos's return to England. Tl-Aese cards were delivered to me on the 25th of April. I acted upon what Mr. Brooke Greville told me. In answer to a question from a Juror, the witness stated that he was told of the marking of the cards before he had exa mined them. Mr: Norman M‘Donald examined by Mr. WATSON—I was a member of the Travellers' Club last year. I played with Lord De Roos upon one occasion. I did not then mark the cards. Mr. Baring Wall—l was a member of the Travellers' Club last year. I played then with Lord De Roos. I did not then, or at any other time, mark the cards. Cross-examined by Sir W. FOLLETT—I have frequently played with Lord De Roos. Sometimes won, and sometimes lost. Mr. G. Greville examined by Lord DENMAN—I don't re colic( t the direction on the parcel of cards brought to me. I think Mr. B. Grevillo told me that he had desired Brown to bring them. James Turner—l am a waiter attending the card-room of Graham's Club; I have been in that situation nine years. I recollect the Ist of July when Lord Dc Roos and Mr. Payne were playing. Mr. Graham was not in his place at the bar ; he was ill and went to bed, and a waiter named Thomas Musgrove took his place. Lord H. Bentinck was also play ing, but I don't recollect the fourth person. Mr. Payne about two o'clock in the morning called for fresh cards. Ho took one of the cards they had been playing with (the ace of clubs) and held it up to the candle. He ap peared to be angry, and said something which I don't recollect. Ile threw the card on the table violently. It is my duty to remove the cards that have been played with. I took the two packs that had been used away to the table near the bar. Mr. Payne, while I was gathering them up, said, " Take care of these cards, I will have them seared." I afterwards examined the cards with Musgrove; several of them were marked. Shortly afterwards Mr. Payne came to the bar, and gave directions to Musgrove. I tied up the cards and left them on the table in readiness for Mr. Payne. There was no other party playing at the time. I told the circum stance to Mr. Graham next morning. Cross-examined by the ATTORNRY-GENERAL.---It is not a common thing for players to select a card and throw it down with violence. I have known losers throw clown the cards violently, and call for a fresh pack. I don't remember who was Lord De Roos's partner. I don't know that Mr. Payne had lost a rubber. What Mr. Payne said wash' the hearing of all who were sitting at the table. Mr. Payne gave me direc tions to seal the cards for him at the table. What he said to me must have been heard by all at the table. Neither Lord Henry Bentinck, Lord De Roos, nor the third gentleman, took any notice of it. Mr. Payne returned to the table, and played the rubber out, and then his Lordship played no more. His Lordship cut out. After the 2d of July, Lord De Roos never played at Graham's ; Lord H. Bentinck did. By a Juror—lt is sometimes usual to call for fresh cards in the middle of a rubber. William Henry Musgrove—l have been 33 years waiter at Graham's. I recollect the night of the Ist of July ; there were playing Mr. Seaton, Col. Anson, Lord H. Bentinck, and others. I recollect at the close of the evening Mr. Payne calling for fresh cards. Turner took the fresh cards, and we examined the ones he took away--they were marked. Mr. Payne desired the cards to be tied up for him, which was done. There was a porter, named Elborough attending, and I told him to be sure to I et Mr. Payne have them when he went away. Cross-examined by Sir WILLIAM FOLLETT—Mr. Payne is in Court, and I was in Court during the examination of the last witness. The whist party broke up almost directly after wards. I believe no new rubber was played after that, but I am not certain. lam quite sure Mr. Payne did not play for a couple of hours after that with Lord De Roos. I could sea from the bar who was playing. I don't know who was Mr. Payne's partner or who Lord De Roos's partner was. Mr. Payne played at picquet for an hour afterwards. Mr. Payne is in attendance outside. Henry Elborough— I have been six years porter at Graham's. On the night of the Ist July, Musgrove directed me to give two packs of cards which were lying on the table and papered up, to Mr. Payne, when he was leaving the house. I did so when I had opened and looked at them. Sir William Ingilby—l am an old member bf Graham's Club. I have been nearly thirty years a member of it. I have known Lord De Roos as a member, and have frequently seen him play whist there. I was in the club in March, April, and part of May. I know the trick called saucer la coupe, and I know the legerdemain by which the ace can be got to the bottom of the pack. Mr. TIIESSIGER—Have you ever seen Lord De Roos prac tise it ? Sir WILLIAM FOLLETT objected to the question. Witness explained what he believed was called_ the trick of seater la coupe. A pack of cards was handeil him, and be showed, after the cards were cut, that by a tans position of the g two divisions of t h e car d s, the ace or '.tin was again brough t to the bottom. The performance of the trick created much laughter, which was immediately repressed by Lord Denman , who threatened to have the Court cleared if it was repeated. , Witness proceeded.—l have pl a y e d a good deal at Graham!. Club, and I h avo remar k e d th e extraordinary manner in wh i c h Lord Do Ituos pl a y e d, and recollecting the trick o f my early days, days, and likewise observing th at he almost invariably tare% up an ace or a king, I resol ve d to watch, and the fi rs time I did I saw the trick d one. I will not swear to a , hundred times, but I hav e seen Lord De Roos do the trick of sauter la coupe fifty times at least. I never plaY e , , with Lord De Roos b u t at Graham's Club. I observeer with respect to de a li ng , t h at his Lordship h an dled tt_u f cards in a very qtraordivary manne r he was in the habit Q'
