MEETINGS OF CREDITORS TO-MORROW. Smart, victualler, Islington 1 at 12 H. Potts, builder, Elackheath.ro.id • 1 11 GREENACRE. Yesterday the Sheriffs, and Aldermen Humphrey and Lainson, and the Under-Sheriffs, were for a considerable time in the prison of Newgate, and Greenacre, whose spirits were evidently higher than they have been since his convic tion, appeared disposed to ba communicative. As might be expected, everything he uttered had re f erence t o th e hor rible occurrence, which he still continues to call accidental. Alderman Humphrey, after a little conversation, said, I have seen a statement in the public papers, upon which you would probably wish to make some observations. It is men tioned that you were one of the Cato-street conspirators, and that you are the person who escaped at the window when the Bow-street officers went up the ladder. Greenacre (surprised).—One of the Cato-street conspira tors tno such thing. I never had anything to do nvith them —I never knew anything about the Cato-street business— never. Alderman Humphery—lt was mentioned with an air of au thority, as if the writer had reliance upon his information. Greenacre—No, I never had an/thing to do with it. But I must be great food for the newspapers. Their business is to find out every thing they can against me, and then to invent. I hope that report will be contradicted—it is quite absurd. Alderman Humphery—Your contradiction will, I have no doubt, be made public. Greenacre (after a pause)—lt is very strange that such a thing should be said, and yet there was an extraordinary thing took place too at that time. I remember I was sitting drink ing tea at the house of a shoemaker, in Mount -street, Lam beth, and in came some of the Bow-street officers, and asked whether a man of the name of Preston was there. This Pres ton was not with us, nor was he, I understand, one of the con spirators ; but they took the shoemaker up, and nothing was said about me. I knew nothing at all about it. Alderman Humphery having recommended the most serious reflection to the prisoner, upon the sentence passed upon him, Greenacre said, if I am to be hanged, I wish they'd hang me at once ; I wish they'd hang me to-morrow. Alderman Humphery—lt is supposed that you have not told the truth as to the place in which you killed the woman. Greenacre—lt happened no where else. I could show you the spots of blood. I wish the hackney-coachman who took us from the bottom of Berner -street, near Middlesex Hos pital, to Bowyer-lane, close to Carpenter's-place, on the Christmas-eve could be found out. H e mus t reco ll ec t ta ki ng us there on the Christmas-eve. The accident took place no where else. If you were to inquire for that coachman, I have no doubt that you will find that I can be so far confirmed. I have stated how it took place exactly. Greenacre then spoke of his intention to go to America, which intention was frustrated by the appearance of the police men, and said, " I have never seen Ward, who introduced me to Mrs. Br since the dreadful occurrence." Three of us were to have gone to America together—Captain Tanner and his wife, who were entered in the ship's books as Mr. and Mrs. Henry Thomas, and I. I signed my name as James Thomas, and we paid 241. for our passage. This Tanner took out a cargo some time ago, and sold it, and came back after selling it. The statement of Greenacre as to the enga g ement of the passage to America is confirmed by th e resu lt o f the inquiries of Mr. Cope, the Governor of Newg ate. Mr. Price (Greenacre's Counsel) mentioned in the course of the day to Greenacre that he had sent a memorial to the Secretary of State, for liberty to plead before the Judges upon the evidence that had been given on the trial. On the 10th of December, 1832, the following paragraph appears in some of the papers on the occasion of the Parlia mentary election. The can did a t es were Willi am Brougham, John Humphery, Baugh Allen, and T. L. Murray ;—" Mr. Greenacre proposed T. L. Murray, Esq., as the most proper and fit person. He was a man of liberal principles, and, com pared with the other candidates, was as the meridian sun to a rushlight.—(Great laughter.) Should the electors choose Mr. Murray, he would devote himself to their service." EXECUTION OF BARTLETT.—TIIC Rev. J. R. Cooper, Chaplain to the Gaol, has been unremitting in his at tentions to the wretched culprit. On Friday he had an inter view with his wife, to take leave of her for ever. The feelings of both were excited to a ;nost painful degree. On Friday night he slept soundly from eleven till about three, when hb awoke, and inquired what o'clock it was, and being informed, he observed, that " he had but a few more hours to live," and composed himself again to sleep, and continued so till six on Saturday morning, since which time be has more than once repeated his protestations of his innocence of the murder for which he was condemned to suffer death. On Saturday morn ing the prisoner was visited by the Reverend Mr. Kempthorne, who was with him nearly three hours, but did not succeed in making any satisfactory impression upon him. At about a quarter -past twelve o'clock, the executioner entered the cell, and the ceremony of pinioning was gone through, and tkroughout these horrid preparations the wretched man main tained his characteristic firmness. In a few minutes after wards he was brought out, and walked slowly and steadily, without any support along the yard towards the platform, by the side of the executioner. His countenance was ghastly and fearfully pale, but his eyes supported their customary bright ness. He held a Bible in his hands, and bowed repeatedly to the various officers and gentlemen presiding over this final operation of the law. When arrived on the drop he gazed around on the immense multitude assembled, and looked as if desirous of addressing them. The executioner waved his hand once or twice, and stillness immediately prevailed. The poor man, in a solemn and impressive manner, then made a short. speech ; after which the cap was drawn over his face, and in a moment the drop fell from under his feet, and he ceased to exist.— Gloucester Journal of Saturday. On account of the decease of the late Marquis of Bath, the present Marquis has issued orders that Longleat House will not be shewn, and that parties will not be allowed the use of fishing cottages, &c., at the water, for the next twelve reonthr. KING'S BEN CH.--( -( Sittings in Banco. ) At the sitting of the Cour — t Mr. Justice COLTMAN made the usual declaration on being appointed one of the Puisnc Judges of the Court of Common Pleas. THE KING V. THE POOR-LAW COMMISSIONERS. Sir FREDERICK POLLOCK had been instructed, on behalf 0, the City of London Union, to make two applications to the Court—one was to set aside an order of the Poor-law Com missioners, dated the 27th of January, 1837, by a writ of cer tiorari, and the other was to set aside a subsequent order of the Commissioners of the 10th of March, 1837. Although he had been instructed to apply for the rules separately, he felt it to be his duty to disclose to the Court the whole cir cumstances at once, inasmuch as they were closely con nected together--the object of the latter being to cor rect and amend the former order. With respect to the first, he submitted that he was entitled at once to a rule for a cer tiorari, inasmuch as ten of the parishes included in the Union were under the protection of particular bodies, established by local Acts of Parliament—and with respect to the second, which was in the nature of an amendment to the first, it would be for their Lordships to decide whether it was valid, it being a clear principle of their Lordships' judgment, that the Com missioners had no authority to issue the order of the 27th of January. The first order, after enumerating 108 metropolitan parishes, of which upwards of 90 were within the walls and without, directs that these parishes shall constitute the City of London Union. It then appoints Boards and Guardians, and rules and regulations are given with reference to the Union. Notice to that effect having been given to all the parishes, a very large number of them were disposed to resist the order, not from any motives but their conviction of the illegality of the order, inasmuch as they were advised that a number of parishes under the guidance of local Acts could not be interfered with by the Poor-law Commissioners. Mea sures were taken to apprize the Poor.law Commissioners of the views so entertained, and on the 10th of March the Commissioners issued the second order. That order, after reciting the previous one, proceeded, " and whereas doubts have been entertained of the validity of that order, as far as it may affect certain parishes wherein .laws for the relief of the poor are administered under the provisions of local Acts ; and whereas it is expedient to remove such doubts, and to alter and amend said order; now, therefore, we, the said Poor-law Commissioners, do hereby rescind so muck of the said order as may in anywise affect the parishes and places (enumerating the various parishes having local Acts); and we hereby order and direct that the remaining parishes (enu. merating them shall constitute the City of London Union ; and in all other respects we confirm the said order of the 27th of January, 1837." He ( Sir F. Pollock) contended that it would have been better for the Poor•law Commissioners to have made an order de novo instead of attempting to amend and rescind a portion of the former order. The Learned Gentleman here referred to several sections of the Poor-law Amendment Act, to chew that the Commissioners had the power, in certain cases, to constitute several parishes into Unions, but that this power, when exercised in reference to parishes having local Acts, and over which they had no con troul, was illegal. By the 36th section it was provided that if the order was legal it could not be rescinded without the consent of two-thirds of the Guardians ; if, on the contrary, the order was originally illegal, no amendment could be en grafted on it, so as to give it validity : in short, they ought to have abandoned it altogether. Lord DENMAN—That would have been a more convenient way. Mr. Justice COLERIDGE—In what way were they to get rid of it—was it by a new order? Sir F. PottocK—l doubt whether that would have been a proper course. It appears to me that it could not be rescinded without the authority of this Court. The only question at present is, whether I have raised sufficient doubts of the vali dity of the orders, as to induce your Lordships to bring them into Court, in order that their legality or illegality may be dis cussed. Lord DENMAN—I suppose the Commissioner 3 do not want to show cause at present ? Sir F. POLLOCK—No, my Lord. Lord DENMAN—I think you must have your rule.—Rule granted. - COMMON PLEAS.-(THIS DAY.) LACY V. WALROAD. This action was brought by the plaintiff, an undertaker, to recover the sum of 1501., being the amount of the funeral ex penses of the defendant's mother, and was tried at the last assizes of Gloucester before Mr. Baron Parke, and a verdict had for the plaintiff. Mr. MAULE now moved for a role to show cause why the verdict should not be set aside and a nonsuit entered, or that a new trial should be granted, on the grounds of the insuffi ciency of the evidence, and that the defendant was utder no implied responsibility as the administrator of the deceased. The plaintiff had attempted to support his case by producing letter from the defendant to Lady Codrington, in which he expressed his approval of the arrangements which had been made, and had acknowledged the receipt of a letter from her Ladyship, inclosing his mother's will. The Learned Counsel contended, at great length, that there could be no evidence of any ratification of a contract for the order of the funeral, unless that original letter had been produced; and that the expense incurred by the funeral should not have ex ceeded 531., as directed by the will, and which had been paid into Court. The CIIIEF JUSTICE—Take a rule to show cause.—Rule granted. EXCHEQUER. COURT-(THIS DAY). HOWIE V. DALTON. This action was brought to recover the value of a quantity of printed goods which the defendant printed for a bankrupt named Lloyd, whose assignee the plaintiff was: The trial was had . at Chester before Mr. Justice Bosanquet, when a verdict was found for the plaintiff with 1,600/. damages. The AtTORNEY-GENERAL now moved for a rule to show cause why that verdict should not be set aside arid a new trial had, on the ground of the admission of improper evidence. The goods in question were sent by. the bankrupt, who shipped them to the defendants, .cho were printers, for the purpose of being bleached, washed, and printed. They were so printed, and the bankrupt shipped them to Mexico. On their arrival there it was found that they were in a rotten state, in consequence of the negligence and proper treatment of them by the defendant. The goods were sold and complained of, and the bankrupt had been ob liged to repay 1,000/., and other demands were coming in. The Learned Judge alloWed that fact to be proved by the bankrupt himself; and he (the Attorney-General) contended that he had an interest in the matter, and was disqualified as a witness. The Jury also were most precipitate and unjust, for they did not allow the Learned Judge to sum up, but im mediately found a verdict for th e pl a i n tiff, w i t h 1,6001. damages. —Rule granted. We are assured by the manager of a respectable bank near Leeds, that although gold has diminished in the Bank of England, he is certain it has greatly increased in many, if not all, country banks. He says their bank has kept a stock for several months past amounting to nearly three times their usual supply ; and although be had to send to th e B ranc h B au k s o f Englan formerly every fortnight for gold to pay wages, yet he has not had occasion to do that once for the last three months. Even in Manchester, where the pressure has been and still is great, the banks have had more gold than they re quired, and have been offering it to neighbouring banks. We think such a statement as this ought to be generally known, as it establishes the fact, that although gold may diminish at the Bank of England, it does not follow that it.is sent out of the country. Our informant believes, indeed, that the amount of gold in the country is very great, It will be seen that our private correspondent bears out ilk3s last statement an far as respects the metropolis. —Leetrds• Mercury.

LADY BLESSINGTON'S NEW WORK, " THE VICTIMS OF SOCIETY."—Lady Blessington has here, we thin)., written her best book. With more than her usual share of quick, lively, and accurate observation of persons and thir.gs, she has made some deep and lasting incisions into that te. i xeil and solid mass of ignorance, insipidity, hard insensibility, and insincerity, which enter so largely into tho formation vi what is called the exclusive or ultra-fashionable society ot. L The expression of character is admirable throughou'.: f4entence after sentence tells replete with sense and satire, and th e main purpose of the book is always kept in the reader's \ itm. With ease, precision, and sparkling effect, we have cona'oined the glare of the 'world of fashion, with glimses of the world of fancy.—Examiner. ------ hilt. It. P. vl A RD , s NEW WORK, ' c l - lUMANI LIFE."—It is a real pleasure to fin'tl this gifted writer again contributing the treasures of his mind to the general stock of our literature. As a delineator of human life and - charaf.:ter, Mr. Ward stands out distinctly from the viliole e:lass of ) ,ivios novelists. His pre-eminent qualities are depth, sweittness, and tranquillity. His scenes of human nature and its varied accessories are like the landscapes of Claude ; full of sunshine and serenity : they serve at (Ince to warra and to soothe the imagination. His writings leave the reVier in that temper of mind, which it is most agreeable as we'd as most beneficial to cultivate. • They are of higher purpc,se and value than to be read and forthwith. dismissed : t'aey are of the kind to be stared in private libraries, and recurriJa to from thne to time, as tt, still fresh solact, and delight. .‘ TURKISH SERAGWIOS.—Aniong the nuraerot7.s n, in the forthcoming novel of " Gentle other ',:opics touched 0 man. Jack," is, we uriderstand, the whole mode and manner in which Mahomcdan females are brought up and ',rented. It will be remembered, that in " Cavendish," the a'athor took is with him into Turkey, but in his new work the , . e is said to 11. one of the most eoraplete descriptions of the. vdinutire of a s , !- raglio that has yet been written. • MEMOIRS OF A PEERESS ; OR , THE "JAYS Or Fox.—The only question. that prese'ats itself to the mind. as the perusal of these remarkable voluraes, is--" Why have they been suffered to remain so long I:xipublished ?"
