fluences should rather be employed to prepare converts for the Gospel, which is the revers e of the p ractice lii ther:o aserved throughout the world, than that the Gospel, which was never intended to perform any such s e rvice, should be convected into the rm - l e pioneer of the state. No doubt when men, whether savage o r civilised, have received into their minis the truths of religion, and endeavoured to bring their conduct into harmony with its dictates, they become better citizens, because necessarily more averse to the practice of injustice, whe- . ther in themselves or others. But truth addresses itself' to the understanding, and cannot profitably be accepted by men blindly, and on the same grounds as a fable. They must know what they believe and why they lieve it, otherwise, not tieing able to give a reason for the faith that is in them, they are no better than idola ters, though their opinions should, peradventure, be orthodox. We would by all means convert the heathen everywhere throughout the . world, but we would ap proach their minds through the avenues, apparently con. structed for that purpose by Providence,. and having conducted them up to the high platform of truth, would compel them to come in by that sweet and gentle com pulsion to which honest and ingenuous men mostreadily submit." This theory of Mr. Brooke that the merchant should be the pioneer of the missionary is certainly novel, but it is worthy of serious consideration, and the reasons which he urges in its favour are certainly very cogent. The writer is of opinion that at the close of the Chinese war a mission should have been sent to Japan, to endeavour to establish commercial relations with that empire ; and he thinks that the establishment of our colony at Labuan is a still more favourable opportuniy of doing so, which ought not to be neglected : " The Japanese will distinctly perceive that commerce, not conquest, is our object, since, instead of appropri ating to ourselves, as we might, whole provinces on the mainland, which, by right of treaty, are ours, we con tent ourselves with the possession of a diminutive island, barely large enough to hold our warehouses and our public edifices, and to supply exercising ground for our military and naval officers. "So unequivocal a proof of moderation cannot pos- ' eably be thrown away upon them. While its effects are fresh, therefore, we should send a commercial mission to Jedo. conceived on a statesmanlike plan, and carried out with consummate prudence and caution. It would be desirable to inspire the Japanese Government with deep respect for our maritime power, without insinuating at the same time the least desire to overawe them by its display. Though doing things on a grand scale, we should be thought to do nothing extraordinary, but only to be unostentatiously exhibiting the grandeur charac teristic of our manner of acting. For this purpose wr would have a first-rate line-of-battle ship, the noblest in the navy, sent on the service, accompanied by a frigate and steamers of the greatest possible rapidity and beauty. They could not be better employed. For what is it that we purpose to effect with them ? Nothing less than the throwing open to our commerce of a new market, lest rich and vast, indeed, than that of the Indian Archi pelago, but still in itself most extensive and opulent, and at present enjoyed by none, since Holland, with its paltry establishment at Nangasaky, cannot properly be said to trade with Japan at all." At all events the experiment is worth trying, and by perseverance we doubt not that we should be enabled to enter into such commercial relations with the Japanese as cannot but be infinitely advantageous to both parties. The article entitled " Ham House in the Days of the Cabal" contains some pleasant reminiscences of the days of Charles 11., when Clifford, Arlington, Buckingham, Ashley, and Lauderlade (the notorious Cabal), were wont to as • amble at Ham House, near Richmond (late the resi dence of the Countess of Dysart), and plot the ruin of their country. Our old Friend Colonel Mitchell makes a furious onslaught against the critics, who having ventured to express a doubt whether, after all, Napoleon was not a greater man than Colonel Mitchell, are, according to the colonel's idea, as ignorant of the art of criticism as the Emperor was of the art of war. The choler of the colonel is particularly excited against a writer in "a respectable Whig journal," for accusing him of " scientifically trying to prove that Napoleon ought to have been defeated." The colonel declares in reply, that "he has never paid so much homage to modern science as to appeal to any of its maxims," and indignantly repels the charge of being scientific as a gross calumny. For once we agree w i t h t h e co l one l . Retrospective Gleanings" are a series of piquant sketches of some of the celebrities who were assem bled in the French capital in 1817. Those of Talley sand, Sucbet, Cuvier, the Chevalier Langles are dashed off with a free pencil, while poor Colton, the author of "Lacon "—a man more sinned against than sinning, who during his lifetime was never pro perly appreciated—is drawn at full length. The Bobadil German Baron, and the intriguing Portu guese Secretary are also admirable portraits. We hope the author has not yet exhausted his gallery. Mr. Wakley and Dr. Bowring are the contemporary orators. Full justice is done to the thoroughly English qualities, the shrewd mother-wit, the admirable tact, the strong common sense, and the immovable sincerity of purpose of the former, while upon the latter the author has been somewhat too severe. " What is thought of our Commercial Policy on the Continent ?" is the title of the political article of this number. The author admits that the thinking men of the Continent all admire the free trade policy adopted by this country, and that the people are all prepared to follow it. To the adoption of that policy he attributes the cessation of the war. cry among the people of France ; but he considers that, as the Continental Governments dread being forced by their people to adopt free-trade measures, they will be more inclined than they have been to go to war with England, in order to stop the spread of free-trade opinions. " The Memoirs of tht Shetlanders" are continued ; and we have, besides, a mashing critique on " 3.lorell's History of Modern Philosophy," a spirited account of a boar hunt in Brittany; and the commencement of a novel entitled " the Rector's Daughter." TAIT. A pleasant and susceptible nature has George Gilfillan, and admirably does he evince these charac teristics of his disposition with independence of taste, originality of illustration, and uncommon vigour of language. His pencil in the present number of Tait is devoted to the portraiture of Leigh Hunt. Every one who has ever revelled over the bonhomniie of the "Indicator," who has mused over the pensiveness of "Rimini," who has smiled with a sensation between that of pleasure and derision while partaking of the "Feast of the Poets," who has thrown down upon the ground with scornful impetuosity that miserable ebullition of spleen and vanity, entitled " Byron and his Contemporaries," will refer to this contribution with curiosity. The writer has discriminated the pervading subtleties of the nature of Leigh Hunt; he has shown him, as he really is, a being of " elegant and airy littleness," but no literary mastodon. He has depicted with faithful accuracy the genial dispo sition of Hunt, his natural gentleness and suavity, his predisposition to think well and speak well of all created things, his enduring love for freedom of thought and for the mental irresponsibility of each man to his neighbour. In looking at the sunny side of his theme Gilfillan has given us a kind of instinctive Daguerreotype—he has eulogised the eternal smile which seems to pervade the writings of hunt, and has defined with a very singular felicity the many amiable phases of that author's character. But in the antithesis of that same character he has seen nothing scarcely but a blank, and has consequently there spoken little to the purpose. He has failed to recognise in Leigh Hunt that intellectual, or rather moral chiaroscuro which imparts to his name such a mournful individuality. Mr. Gilfillan has not recog nised the concavity, while he has fully appreciated the convexity. Ile sees everything to admire in the conservation of Shelley's friendship, and in the imprisonment for political independence, but he sees scarcely anything worthy of reprobation in covering the memory of a dead benefactor with contumelies! We cannot possibly coincide with this contributor to Tail in regarding an act of such remarkable turpitude with anything approaching to lenity. In the dark some and pathetic glory which invests the closing scenes of the career of Lord Byron, the recollection of that base "stab in the dark" from a hand _which had been grasped in that of the traduced stands forth still with the same aspect of callous and impassive cruelty. Time may have weakened the public ex pressions of indignation, but time can never, as long as the memory of that incident endures, lessen the public sense of indignation. We should have ab stained from commenting upon a passage in the his tory of letters so debasing and so irredeemably vile as this, but that Mr. Gilfillan has endeavoured to ca , t fresh obloquy upon the glorious but mournful memory of Byron, where another was alone culpable. It is not by attempting to scoff at the chivalrous undertaking of that great but fallen man for the regeneration of Greece, it is not by attempting to deride that beautiful and adventurous scheme that the celebrity of Leigh Hunt can beeleansed from a tarnish more lasting than the blowl-gouts upon the fingers of Lady Macbeth ! It is not by calling the withering and sleadly irony of Thomas Moore mere " insolence" (fiat ingratitude can he erased from the pages of .‘ i lyron and his Contemporaries." Though we can not, if course, expect the maxim, " De mortuis nil nisi &vane to be acceded to in biography, and history, and criticism, we nevertheless look for the practice of its, twin adage, " De mortuis nil Pi a i verum." No one expected Leigh Hunt to com promise the acknowledged independence of his cha racter by penning an eulogium upon the extraor dinary man who perished at Missolongbi ; but no o ne, at the same time, anticipated such an outpouring Hof acidity and effervescence upon a heart that was stilled for ever, and a brain that had lost its sentience. ..Enough of this, however. The political article ap pended tti the October number of Tait is dictated in a tone of most unwelcome a nd inapposite flippancy, and, beyond this, is most coarse and careless in its selection . o f adjectives. We are by - no means inclined to be over lastidious— literary prudery is, in fact,,pur most especial abhorrence; but whe n . we find this writer in rat Magazine. companno the • unfortunate F I s ycung Queen of Spain with a certain lady o!' hatti Baby lon, who shall be nameless, we conceiv e e roprieties of a free press are, to a very great extent, violated. Mere nicknames and scurrilities are muddy weapons of assault, which stick to the hands of those by whom they are employed, without injuring, in the slightest particular, the person against whom they were intended to be ejected. The writer in this periodical is aroused to indignation by the match making schemes of his Majesty King Louis Philippe. Nor when the diplomatic chicaneries of Count de Bresson are remembered can this indignation cause any astonishment. Instead, however, of battling the question of this alliance with logic, or of employing even the shadow of an argument, le writer proceeds with a rather reprehensible alacrity to assail the cha• ratters, and to vituperate upon the policy of the Or leans family. The King himself " only differs from a tallow-chandler in having to do with ministerial portfolios, &c."—he " has the smirk of a mercer or man-milliner showing off his wares." The Queen, again, is derided—and for what ? Why, for her piety! Her Majesty has committed no public griev ance ; but, simply because the recent proceedings o: the French Government are distasteful, Queen Ame lia—one of the gentlest, least offensive, and most angel-hearted of sovereigns —must be scoffed at as a psalm-singer, and a patroness of missions to the Heathen." We deeply deplore the appearance of such sentiments in the columns of our enlightened and liberal contemporary. The talent and the gene rous freedom of opinion in Tait's Magazine always elicits our esteem, and hence we are the more earn estly grieved at such little ebullitions as the fore going: they are not consonant with the high character already acquired by that publication. It was upon a precisely similar principle that the imperial family of France was traduced in lampoons, and even lengthy calumnies, about the commencement of the present century. It was in such a false and ungenerous spirit that a work, in several volumes, intitled "The Revo lutionary Plutarch," was published by Mr. J. Murray, crammed with the most barefaced lies, and with the grossest insinuations—a book in which the princes of the imperial family, from the Emperor Napoleon himself downwards, were aspersed as ruffians and out-throats, and the princesses as "no better than they chould be." We mourn these unwarrantable modes of expressing annoyance at any national pro ceeding. We have, as the readers of TLe Sun are already perfectly conscious, no sympathy whatever with the recent machinations of the French Ambassador at Madrid, but, at the same moment, we -ee no utility in any dereliction of propriety in the manner of protesting against those machinations. Mrs. Gore pursues her new fiction, " Temptation and Atonement" with a vivacity most propitious and a fancifulness most alluring. We are not presented with the lees of a mind exhausted by incessant exer tion ; a new vintage of romance seems to be opened with the story of which these chapters are the con tinuation. An article on " Trees" is a delightful and curious composition, but the idea seems to have been suggested by a very similar contribution, published many months back in the Dublin University Magazine, and hence its novelty is rather detracted from. It may, nevertheless, be an unintentional plagiarism. "The Belle" is a clever and lively sketch, sparkling as champagne, but not more heady than the juice of gooseberries. "The World a Sepulchre," and "The Field of Morat" are charming and nervous verses, and are worthy of a nook in Tait's Magazine. Other contributions of superior and inferior merit make up the average bulk cf this sterling periodical. The weaving of Brussels carpets, coach-lace, terry velvets, and similar fabrics, hitherto only practicable by manual labour, and at a considerable cost of money and time, is now about to undergo a complete revolution, by the introduction of power looms, invented by Mr. &Levier, F.R S., by means of which the use of the wires hitherto indespensable in this sort of weaving is done away with. In the old method of weaving it was neces sary, in order to form each series of terrys or loops that extend the whole breadth of the fabric, to introduce a wire while weaving, and after the loop was formed over the wire to draw it out. By Mr. Sievier's process the loop is formed by a simple arrangement of the machinery, so much so, as to reduce the expense of production nine tenths of its present cost. It is unnecessary to state that th• public n ill derive great advantage by this invention. DEATH OF EARL WALDEGRAVE.—We have to an nounce the death of Lord Waldegrave, which took place on Monday last at the family seat in Somersetshire. Leaving no family, the noble deceased is succeeded by his uncle, the Hon. Captain Waldegrave, R.N., C. 8., now the Earl Waldegrave, whose eldest son, Viscount Chewton, married Miss Pym, and his daughter, Lady Maria, married William Brodie, Esq., second son of Sir Benjamin Brodie, Bart. George Edward Waldegrave, Earl Waldegrave, county of Northampton, Viscount Chewton, and Baron Walde grave, of Chewton, in the county of Somerset, ands baronet, was born Feb. 8, 1816; he succeeded his father as seventh Earl, 30th July, 1835; married 28th Sep tember, 1840, Frances Elizabeth Anne, daughter o John Braham, Esq., and widow of John James Henry Waldegrave, Esq. The family name was anciently written Walgrave; it is derived from a place in North amptonshire, and we find so far back as the year 1205, J.bn de Walgrave serving the office of Sheriff of London. The present earl was born in 1788, and mar ried on 10th August, 1812, Elizabeth, eldest daughter of the late Samuel Whitbread, Esq., who died March 1, 1843. DEATH OF LORD MOUNT SANDFORD.--We have to announce the demise of this Irish Peer, who expired o n Friday ranrning last, at Stowey, Somersetshire, at the extreme old age of ninety years. The deceased George Sandford Baron Mount Sandford, of Castlerea, county Roscommon, in the peerage of Ireland, was fourth sou of Mr. Henry Sandford, by the Hon. Sarah Atoore, eldest daughter of Stephen, first Viscount Mountcashel. He was born May 10, 175 G, and suceeefei his nephew Henry, second Lord, who was brutally killed in a riot at Windsor, on the 14th June, 1828. The late venerable Pt er was unmarried. His brother, Henry Moore Sand ford, was created a Peer of Ireland in 1800, with re mainder in default of male issue to his brother and their male descendants. On the death of the late Lord's nephew, befoul alluded to, the title and family estates devolved, according to the limitation of the patent, to the deceased. Ilis Lordship had retired from public lite for a long series of years. He was formerly in the army, having held the commission of captain in the 18th Dragoons, and subsequently represented Roscommon in Parliament. By his Lordship's death the title becomes extinct, and the estates of his Lordship in Ireland revert, we believe, to his nieces, Mrs. Wills and Mrs. Paltenharn, the latter lady being wife of the Hon. and Venerable Archdeacon Pakenhatn. DEATH OF BARONESS MUSEX.RRY.—After a short illness, and in the prime of life, on the 25th inst., in Me r rion-square, to the overwhelming bill:Won of her sor rowing family, and the deep regret of all who knew her, Louisa, Baroness Muskerry, of Springfield Ca: tle, in the county of Limerick.—Dublin Evening Mail. SUDDEN DEATH OF AN OLD CITY SERVANT. Mr. Payne held an inquest on Wednesday, at the Sugar Loaf, Great St. Helen s, on the body of Joseph Bruce, aged sixty-eight. The deceased had been for thirty years a servant at the Mansion-house, and was recently gatekeeFer at the Royal Exchange. On Tuesday last, while walking along Gracecliurch-street, he burst a blood-vessel in the lungs, end died in five minutes. Ver dict, " Natural death." GREAT STEEPLECHASE MATCH FOR ONR THOUSAND POUNDS.-A steeple chase match has been made between a Noble Earl, connected with the turf, and J. R. Coin wall, E'q , the conditions of which are, that both parties shall, in the month of December next, ride a four mile steeple chase match over the Market Harborout , h country for 5001. a-side ; Mr. Cornwall to have the choice of time and place; .horses to be bond fide their own property.. _ _ PEDESTRIANISM.—J. ROBINSON AND C. BOON The anxiously louked• for struggle between these " flyers" took place on Wednesday on the Wahall road, about three mires from Birmingham. It will be recol lected that James Robinson, late of llucknell , but now of London, known as " Cannes Pet," was matched, for 25/. a side, to run 120 yards with Book, of Stafford, whose fame stands A 1 among his local friends. At half past two the men showe,l on the ground, a bcauti 'ul level bit of sound earth, at the top of an acclivity-, the rain having delayed the match to that hour. They started from the fall of a hanokerehiet, Robinson getting off with a lead, which at sixty yards he bad increased to a couple of strides ; at a hundred Book had stolen a march upon him, and was within a yard, and the race terminated by Robinson getting home first by a foot only. The betting fluctuated strangely. A little before the race 5 and 6 to 4 was talked of on Book ; at the ground a level 1001. was laid ; and at starting 5 to 4 was offered on Robinson. STOPPAGE OF CITY THOROUGEFARES.—Wednesday a notice was issued at the Office of Sewers, that during the month of October thefollowing thoroughfares will be stopped, viz., Lawrence Pountney-hill, Lawrence Yount ney-lane, Duck's-foot-lane, Cloak-lane, Bell-yard, Grace church-street, Little Bush-lane, Bride•lane, Poppin'a court, Hosier-lane, Shoe-lane, and Old Fish-street during the formation of sewers. FALL OF A MANUFACTORY AND Loss OF LIFE.-- Bitween eleven and twelve o'clock un Wednesday morn ing the inhabitants of Barfield were alarmed by a loud crash followed :by cries for aid, occasioned. by the falling in of a buildineused as a rope mat manufactory. The building consisted of one large room on the basement, and another immediately over it. From ten to fifteen per sons were usually employed in theppper room. In the rear of the factory iS a plotlaf ground which has been excavated to a considerable depth for building purposes, and the wall of the manufactory nexttto the t xcavated ground having given way, nearly the entire building fell into the hollow. The scene that presented itself to the lookers-on was heartrending in the extreme. Many of the workpeople were lying around, partially buried amongst the falling rubbish. A number of persons were (1 11 tekly engaged in extricating the sufferers, several of W9"rn e“ re conveyed to the ii.firmary seriously injured. The bodies of a man and a girl, both quite dead, were afterwards dug out of the ruins. It has been aseertained, that there were leven persons at work in the manufac tory when th? accident occurred—namely, four men. three wcmen, and fuer children. Nine out of the num• ber arc more or less injured. One man has a broken leg and bead severely inured, and another of the Nee several ribs fractured an - to arms dislocated. Tw. of the women and one of the children have sustainer soma severe injuries, but the rem a i n de r of the p erso n s who were within the building have escaped with compa ratively bat slight injury.

THE WILL OF THE HON. Mit. JUSTICE WILLIAMS.— The late Sir John Williams, Knight, one of her Majes ty's Justices of the Court of Queen's Bench, had settled on his wife at marriage a sum of 40,000/, and, as she is the survivor, and there is no issue, the same will be at her disposal by deed or will, The trustees, under the settlement, were Lord Brougham, the late Lord Abinger, and the late Sir Robert Wilmot Horton. With a por tion of that sum was purchased the estate of Dowsby Hall, Lincoln, producing a rental of :1,200/ a-year, and the other portion invested in the funds. By his will he directs that his executors shall Bemire to her an income of not less than 2,000/. a 3 ear. Devises and bequeaths all his real estate, and the residue of his personal estate, to trustees and executors, to convert the personalty into money, and invest the same, on good security. The funded and personal property was valued for duty at 25,000/.; the real estate is not to be sold during the life-time of Lady Williams. Bequeaths to her the house in Grosvenor-square as a residence, and leaves her all his furniture, plate, pic tures, and books (except law books), also the car riages, horses, &c., and a portion of the residue—the whole being divided into thirty-seven parts. Six parts to Lady Williams, six to Captain A. Jones, four to the Captain's brothers and sisters, four to John Richard son, Esq., four to 'Mr. Smith, of Altree, four to Mr Mortimer, three to the children of the late 11ev. F. Howes, of Norwich, two to the Rev. Dr. Lally, two to his bro- ther Edmund Lally, Esq., and two to such of testa tor's cousins, the Miss Bennions, as are living. There are specific pecuniary bequests, viz., to his executors, John Palfrey Burrell, Esq., of Gray's Inn, 1,0001.; and Peter Bellinger Brodie, Esq., of Lincoln's Inn-fields, 5001.; to his godson, Lord Gifford, 5001.; the Rev. J. Bolden, 5001.: Mr. Edward Brady, 3001.; Mrs. Archer, 3001.; his clerk, 1001.; his groom, 501 This Learned Judge died at his seat, Livermore Park, Suffolk, on the 14th of September, at the age of 70, having executed his will only a fortnight before his death. Sir Charles Wetherell's personal estate has just beer. administered to by Lady Wetherell, and a stamp duty paid on 250,00(1. The late John Bosteck, of Bedford place, Bloomsbury, who died on the 6th of August, It ft personal property amounting to 25,000/. He executed his hill ii 1844, to which is appended to o codicils, wherein he pro vides for an annuity of 50(1. to Lis wife, and, on het decease, leaves 4,000/. to his daughter, and has left t, each a legacy. Devises his real estate to his son, John Ashton Bostock, Esq., to whom he also leaves the residue of the personal estate, and is the acting executor. Captain Sir Spencer Lambert Hunter Vass:4ll, R.N., KM., late of Hyde Park-gardens, made his will about three weeks before his death, in words to this effect—" I give and bequeath all my money and other per: oval pro p rty to my dear wife, and appoint her and my brother, Major R. Vevsall, executors of my will, and refer then for directions respecting my affairs to a paper of memo randmos." These memorandums, containing many specific bequest?, were not entitled to probate, being made subsequent to the will, and unattested. George Alexander, M.D., formerly in the service of the Henourable East India Company, afterwards of Temple House, Hammersmith, and late of Sussex terrace, Hyde Park, has devised his rnessuage at Southampton, called " Woodbine Cottage," and the farms ar.d land called " Gibbs," and all other rein estate to his son, llarvey Alexander ; bequeaths the sum of 53,000 sieca, rupees standing in his name in the East India Company's books, in trust, so as t. produce certain annuities payable to his wife, his tee sons, and two daughters, and the principal thereof to b. at their separate disposal by will; also annuities to his sisters, Mrs. Angus and Mrs. Watson, for specific pur poses. All medical books to his nephew Alexander Angus, M.R.C.S., in London. Leaves the furniture. plate, &c., to his wife absolutely, together with th, residue of the personal estate. lie died at the age n sixty-nine, on the 4th of August last. The late Mr. Daniel Haigh, of Furzedown, Streatham, Surrey, died intestate and a widower, leaving funded and personal property amounting to 350,000/. Ili , son, William Haigh, Rel., has just administered to Ith effects. Sir Thomas Grey, Rot., F.R F., late of Rams gate, and ni l tny yk ar. a magistrate of the county of Kent, and the Cinque Ports, has bequeathed the %holt of his real and personal estate to the daughter of his lute wife, Lady Katherine Grey, by her former husband, subjtct to the payment of legacies and ar.nitities to his servants. Sir William Denison has left town to embark for Van Diemen's Land, to asstrme the government of that colony. STRANGE CIRCUMSTANCE.— DISCOVERY OF Two SUICIDES IN RED BANK, MANCHESTER, ON FRIDAY.— The somewhat awful circumstances attendant upon On discovery of two cases of determined suicide, both o: which occurred in the same neighbourhood, and wer( discovered on the same day, has thrown the nei k h bourhood where they took place into the utmost con sternation. Strange to say, both the unhappy in dividuals who have so rashly thrown away their lives are men of advanced age, and both, it is believed, were in independent, or at least easy circumstances. The first case, that of the discovery of the body of Mr. Edward Hoyle, took place as follows:—Mr. Iloyle resided at Cheetham-street, Red Bank, with his family, a son, about 19, two younger children, and his housekeeper, himself being a widower. His h ,useketper h.-ard him stirring between two and three o'clock yesterday (Friday) morn ing, when he descended from his bedroom to the yard, but shortly after returned up stairs again. On getting up, about half-past six o'clock, the housekeeper per ceived him lying in the yard, and on calling his son to see what was amiss with him, it was discovered that he had cut his throat with a razor, which was found lying near to him. The housekeeper states that she never heard him descend the stairs a second time, and when discovered he was quite dead and appeared to have been so for some time. The melancholy occurrence is attributed to the low state of deceased's mind, he having been much affected since the death of his wife about two years ago. He was 51 years of age. The other case is that of an old man aged 77, a Mr. William Anderton, resid ing also in Red Bank. He it appears was a widower, ..etiding alone. Deceased was discovered strangled in bed by a cord which he had attached to the bed-post. It is probable that he must have been dead many hours, as no person bad seen him since Wednesday evening. Both the bodies now lie awaiting owner's inquests.— Nancliester LAW INTELLIGENCE, SHERIFFS' COURT, October 1. (Iktore Mr. Under-Sheriff I.4;RCHELL.) VAUGHAN V. GROSSMITH. The plaintiff in this action is a tailor, and sought to recover the sum of 51. 3s. for goods sold. The defendant,, by his guardian, pleaded that he was e minor at the time the debt was contracted, and that the goods were not necessaries. Mr. WHITE, in stating the ease, said that the de fendant was a shopman to a poulterer, and the pria c'pal item in the bill was for a suit of mourning supplied on the occasion of the death of the defendant's father. The Learned Counsel said he Should be able to show that the order was given by defendant personally, and the pre, agreed on for 51. ss. He had other articles, 2 satin waistcoat for 18s., a Taglioni, &c. lie urged that such articles were necessaries, fit and suitable to the state and condition in life of the defendant. Witnesses were called who proved the orders and delivery of the goode. Mr. CROUCH, for the defendant, eross-examined, with a view of showing that there had been a running ac conat with the defendant's father. It was, however, proved that the defendant always paid for his own clothes. 110 was a " second rate " shopman, and had 7s. a week and board and lodging. Mr. Dean, a tailor, was called to prove the value of the goods. He considered all the charges fair, and that the articles were necessaries fit for a person in defendant's station of life. He considered that a satin waistcoat was not an extravagant article; on the con • trary, it was very economical for wear, and would wear out two or three of cloth. Mr. Cuoucu was then proceeding to address the jury, but The Learned UNDER SHERIFF said, unless witnesses could be called to prove other clothes bad been supplied. and that therefore those charged for were superfluities, the case might rest where it did. The Learned Counsel said he could not call witnesses. The jury said they were satisfied, and gave a verdict for the plaintiff OWEN V. ADANS.—ALTERING A RECORD AFTER SEALING. On this case being called on, the defendant's attorney objected to its being gone on with, as the date for the return had gone by : it was made returnable on the 28th September. The UNDER-SHERIFF taid, under these circumstances, he could not, of course, hear it. The plaintiff's attorney said the writ had been re sealed, but the alteration of the date had not been made; but he would alter it now. The UNDER-SHERIFF .said that if the record was placed before him, and the date of the return was altered, he must try the cause ; but the plaintiff's attorney would make the alteration at his peril. The defendant's attorney said that he would not con sent to the alteration ; indeed, the consequences might be serious, the seal was to authenticate the record. The UNDER SHERIFF said he could not give any per mission, and ought not to be called upon to give an opinion ; but in mercy to the parties, he would say he considered the proceeding would be irregular. After some time the writ was withdrawn. This was the only case tried, the others having been withdrawn. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. The case of extraordinary imposition respecting the pretended title of the heirs-of-law of the Rev. Jonathan Stokes (who died at Nottingham in the year 1712) to an immense fortune of nearly one million sterling, was ' again brought before Mr. Alderman Humphery and Sir W. Hagnay. The prisoner Poyser was defended by Mr. Hum phreys, the solicitor. Mr. Clarkson, who appeared for the prosecution, put in letters which he had received from Nottingham, and by which he expected to trace to the prisoner the bank notes, which the latter denied having received from Mrs. Woodham (the principal heir-at-law to the imagi nary wealth), but Mr. Humphreys objected to their being received as evidence, and they were not pressed. Mr. Clarke then gave evidence that he had made the proper search, and ascertained of the steward of the inns of court that no such barrister existed as Mr. Fitz gerald Strachan, under pretence of feeing whom the prisoner had obtained 20Z from the complainant in l3asinghall-street, within the jurisdiction of this Court. Mr. Clark also gave evidence that there were no un claimed dividends in the name of the alleged testator or his heirs, and that no will of the said Rev. J. Stokes was to be found in Doctors' Commons. Mr. Humphrey's contended that, from Mrs. Woodham's own admission, the false repre sentation respecting the property originated with herself or her relations, as she had sworn that her father believed himself entitled to some such property, and expended large sums in seeking to establish his claim. The only charge that could be entertained was that of obtaining 201. upon the false pretence of paying a fee, and he submitted that there was no evidence that it was a false pretence. There was no case to go to a jury, and he therefore submitted that the prisoner ought to be discharged. The Magistrates were of opinion that the falsehood was not sufficiently made out, and they remanded the prisoner till Saturday, to give time for further search as to the reality of Mr. Fitzgerald Strachan. BOW-STREET. Benjamin Hall was charged before Mr. Henry with stealing a truck, the property of Peregrine Pecker. The complainant, who lives in Little Queen-street. Drury-lane, and has been in the habit of letting truck, for five years, said that on Monday last the prisoner came to him and asked him to lend him the truck, as he wanted to move some goods. Witness said he would do so if the prisoner would give a reference. The prisoner went away, but afterwards returned and took the truck away without his knowledge. Witness had since seen the truck at the shop of Mr. Scotchman, broker and auctioneer, Holles-street, Fitzroy-square. Edwin Flintoft, foreman to Mr. Scotchman, proved that 10s. had been advanced by him to the prisoner on the truck. The prisoner, who made no defence, was committed for trial. The truck was given up to the complainant, a mark having been set on it, in order that it might be identified by the policeman at the trial. Mr. HENRY cautioned the complainant against letting out trucks without putting his name on them. If this truck had had his name on it, the prisoner could not so easily have got money advanced on it. Joseph Edwards, foreman to Mr. Hawthorn, grocer, in the Strand, was charged, upon remand, with stealing 28 pcund packets of sugar, the property of his employer; and Richard and Mary Greene were charged with receiving the same. Mr. nobler appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Lewis for the defence. On Mr. Lewis applying this morning to have the pri soners admitted to bail, Mr. HENRY said, that as a jury might acquit the woman, he would admit her to bsil, but as he had no doubt at all about the case as far as it referred to the male prisoners, he could not allow them to be bailed. Twenty. four hours notice of bail must be given. It appeared that there was no additional evidence to be given, except that of a Mr. Farrell, who had fre quently had dealings with Greene, in the name of Ed wards, and as his agent. The prisoners were committed for trial. cLE RKENWE L L. Henry Lowe was charged with stealing two coats, a gold pin, stock, and other articles, from the passage of the house, 13, Lamb's Conduit-street. Joseph Barker said he was a shop-boy in Mr. Wallis's -ervice, and about seven o'clock that morning he was at .nding in the back yard, when he saw the prisoner nter the hall, the door having been left open by the servant, and take down the two coats which were hang n),.,l_lo-oi,Na.etdhc himpassa ge,andgave a Kith w al h a i r c m h , h w e he r n an ti a m p wa3 r , i . son N e V r it fi n n e d ss v,. ng himself closely pressed, threw down the coats, but was soon afterwards taken into custody. Mr. W a lli s identified one of the coats as his property, and when he h u ng it up in the ball the previous night he placed his stock, in which was a valuable gold pin, in :he pockets, with a pair of gloves and other articles. I'he other coat produced ho believed to be the property , f his lo,iger, Mr. Graham. The prisoner, who said nothing in his defence, was oily committed for trial. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. On Tuesday Honors Murphy, a young Irish woman. amplained to Mr. Hardwick that her mistress had opened her box and had taken 71. from a sum of 171., , er savings acquirt d by honest labour in se: - vice. Her mistress had also dismissed her, and had refused to ac • Jount, to her for the money thus illegally abstracted. Mr. Hardwick desired a constable to go with the girl to her mistress to see that she was righted, and, in case the mistress would not restore the money, to require her attendance to give an explanation at this Court. Yesterday the parties were in attendance, and the :on:plaint was gone into. Honors M ur phy sa id s h e h a d b een i n t h e emp l oy of James Moreh ouse , d a i ryman, 23, L i sle-street, for about a year and a half. It was h er b us i ness to d e li ver m ilk to the customers, and to pay over to her master or mistress all moneys received by her from the customers. A few days ago her mistress charged her with dishonesty, and insisted on seeing the contents of her box. Her box was opened, and out of a sum of 17/. her mistress took 16... under pretence of the money having been stolen from her. Mr. Edwin, who attended for the defendant, said he would at once admit that his client had taken the money, and in so doing had acted indiscreetly. To show the grounds on which the money had been detained, it would be necessary to state how the .rounds of suspicion against the complainant arose. The Complainant, about a year and a half ago, was en gaged as servant to de fiver milk, at the weekly wages of 3s. 6d., and her board and lodging. At that period she had just come from Ireland, and was without money or decent clothes. Three or four months ago her mis tress, in the belief of the young woman's industry and honesty, raised her wages to 4s. a week without solicita tion. fier mistress, however, for months past had found her money and her takings very unaccountably de crease; indeed, from not being able to make the re ceipts cover the expenditure, although a large and a profitable business was apparently being carried on, it was feared that ruin would ensue. Suspicion was raised against the complainant on Friday las., in consequence of one of the family hearing a considerable quantity of copper money poured by the complainant into her box as soon as she came in from serving the customers. Mrs. Morehouse insisted on searching the complairant's box in the presence of a police-constable. About 171. in money was found, and as the money was principally in shillings and fourpenny- pieces and copper, it as at once conjectured it had been stolen from the business. The complainant, who had supplied herself with an ex cellent stock of clothes, was required to account for ti e money she had expended in this way. She said she had laid out about 41. of her wages, and that she had re ceived about 144 for her year and a half's wages. Her mistress then said she would allow her to retain 101. out of the money found in her box,. and would take the ba lance, as a strong presumption existed that it hail been dishonestly acquired. Mr. HARDWICK was of opinion that the money taken from the complainant could not be leg - Illy withheld, and therefore he must recommend the mistress to give it up. Mr. Edwin said his client was perfectly ready to do so, but as he was about to offer evidence to show that the money had been embezzled from her master, he hoped the magistrate would allow the officer to hold it until the charges against the girl were brought forward. The girl said all th e money f oun d i n her box was her savings from the various places in which she had lived. The complainant was then removed from the witness box to the bar. • • Charlotte MorehouSe was then called—She said, after the discovery of the money in the prisoner's box, she went round to the customers, and found that the prisoner had been in the habit of supplying some ready-money customers and not accounting for the money. In reply to questions from Mr. HARDWICK, this wit ness said, the servants who took out the milk did not re ceive a stated quantity. They took out as much as they chose, and what they brought back was not measured. This plan was adopted to prevent the customers from being cheated by the servants lowering their milk with water. The pri:4oner said, she had paid her mistress the moneys stated to have been embezzled.—Retuanded till Saturday. _ WORSHIP -STREET. A well-dressed middle-aged man, named James Emery North, was placed at the bar before Mr. Brough. ton, charged with having unlawfully trespassed upon the line of the Eastern Counties Railway at Shoreditch, and placed his life in imminent danger. Mr. Henry Grimshaw, the station-master, stated that while on duty upon the platform at the terminus, between 8 and 9 o'clock on the preceding evening, just after the arrival of the Ipswich train, he observed the prisoner running along upon all-fours' underneath the bodies of the carriages, and immediately ordered one of the com pany's servants to remove him. On being cautioned as to the perilous position in which he had placed himself, and demanding the cause of his so acting, the prisoner replied that he had invented a plan for working the trains upon a far superior system to that at present adopted, and was waiting for the arrival of two friends, whom he expected by the next train, to submit it to the directors. As this was regarded as only an excuse for his reckless conduct, he was allowed at that time to de • part; but in the course of a quarter of an hour after wards, just as the train was moving off the rails he was again discovered opening the doors of several first-class carriages, and but for the instant inter position of one of the officers, he must have been swept beneath the train, and his life sacrificed. On this occa sion the prisoner said that he was in momentary ex pectation of receiving a communication by the electric telegraph of a robbery lately committed at Colchester, in which he was suspected to be implicate-l; and, as he was evidently labouring under the greatest apprehension and terror, he was given into custody. Sergeant Coleman informed the magistrate, that after the prisoner had been conveyed to the police-station his manner and language were so wild and violent as to leave little doubt of his insanity, and as it was impossible to ascertain anything from him that could be relied upon, his person was searched to endeavour to discover some clue to his relatives, and a packet of letters found in his pocket, from one of which it appeared that he had formerly been in the service of an ironmonger named Shave, in the High-street, Braintree, and from several others, which were couched in terms of the warmest affection, that he had been for some time past paying his addresses to a young woman in the establishment of a gentleman residing at Whip's Cross, Walthamstow. On being called upon for his defence, the prisoner, who was perfectly tranquil, but still exhibited symptoms of an absence of self-control, said he was aware he had been frequently suffering from attacks of mental de rangement, and he could only account for the extraor. ordinary and dangerous conduct imputed to him by sup posing that he must have been labouring under the influence of one of these a4l ictions upon this occasion, as the reasons he had given to the first witness for his being in the position in which he was detected were nearly without foundation. Mr. BROUGHTON said he considered it would be wholly unsafe to entrust the prisoner with his liberty in the present state of his mind, and he should therefore order him to be committed to prison for a week, to afford the officers an opportunity of procuring the attendance in town of some of his relations, who would be answerable fur his future security._ THAMES. William Harrison, a young man, who was stated to be a solicitor's clerk, and who, as far as his exterior appear ance went, appeared to be in good circumstances, was brought before Mr. Ballantine charged with assaulting a police•constable named Thomas Barnes, No.BB H, in the execution of his duty. The policeman stated that at a late hour on Tuesday night he was removing some disorderly prostitutes, and the prisoner interfertd with him, and said they were respectable married women, and and he should not take them. He begged him to desist and go away, on which the prisoner struck him severely on the breast, and said if he dared to molest the women he would do for him. His conduct was extremely violent, and fie was corn pelted to take him into custody. The prisoner was in a state of intoxication at the time. The prisoner,iwho was, greatly agitated, said he was respectably connected, and only came from the country on Tuesday, and drank more than he ought to have done. He was extremely sorry for what he had dome, and he would be the last man to interfere with the police if he was sober. He was subject to fits, and had been attacked with several that morning, in conscquen , .:e of his imprisonment. )fir, BALLANTINE said he did not care for the prisoner's sorrow. It came too late. His feeling was, if the police were not protected from assaults like these, no respect able man would join the force. He would protect the police when they did right, but when they did wrong he would not save them from the consequences. He re gretted that the prisoner was subject to infirmities, but that must not save him, and he sentenced him to seven days' imprisonment in the House of Correction. The prisoner said, if the sentence was carried into effect, he should be ruined, for his employer had parti cular occasion for his services, and expected him to be at his business that morning. He begged of the magistrate to recollect he was subject to fits. Mr BALLANTINE would not alter his sentence, and said the surgeon of the House of Correction would take care of him. The prisoner immediately fell down in a fit, and was carried away by a gaoler and a police-constable. It was some time before he was recovered, and he continued very ill for an hour afterwards. The magistrate gave some directions to the gaoler concerning him. About two hours afterwards Air. Pelham, the solicitor, made an application to Mr. Ballantine on the prisoner's behalf, and said he was labouring under severe illness In this case ho did not mean to deny that the prisoner was a fit subject of punishment, but he thought the application of the summumjus would be summa s. The young man was a solicitor's clerk, who hail never offended be. fore, and was convicted of an assault upon a policeman, not under circumstances of aggravation, and he had ex pressed the utmost contrition. The prisoner was in a very unsound state of health, and subject to hysteric:el fits, and had been seized with one as he was leaving the dock. An imprisonment would be very detrimental to the health of the young man, and as the assault did not arise from any ill-feeling, and'as no mischief was done, he did hope that a fine would be substituted for the im prisonment. Mr. BALLANTINE said he was very piiinfully circum stanced in this case. He saw the young man fall directly after he had inflicted his sentence, and he felt great rain at his situation, but he had come to a conclusion upon his offence before that; he hid come to as mild a deter mination as possible under the circumstances, and after that he found he was ill. It was very afflicting, but he could not help it. The judges who tried cities of more importance very frequently saw similar instances of flint iss, and very painful sights in court, but he was not aware they ever altered their sentences in con sequence. __ Mr. Pelham—The unfortunate young man is in a state of great nervous excitability; perhaps that, sir, would induce you to relax in your determination. I make this application at the request of his friends, Hho ate highly respectable, and will pay any fine.you may think proper to inflict. BALLANTINE was acquainted with the prisont•es illness, and had given directions to Roche, the gaoler, about it. He had no right to fine the young man after he had sentenced him to imprisonment, and the raspec tubility or poverty of his friends would make no im pression upon him in the slightest degree. He had come to a certain conclusion upon the case and he had no right to alter it. Mr. Pelham quite agreed with the magistrate, that Vie same justice should be meeted ou t t o r i c h and poor. The public press at the present time were very properly demanding an equalisation.of punishments, and an lin mnnse deal of good had bean efFected, but he did not think any portion of the world could possibly object to the magistrate relaxing the severity of the law in a case like this. He knew the public press did look upon those cases with considerable jealousy, and that commutations of offences like this were upon the whole objtcti. , nable, but he hoped the magistrate would temper justice with mercy. BALLANTINE hoped that he had done so. The public press said and did what it liked, but he was never influenced either by its censure o r its praise. All men liked praise better than censure, and he was not such a slave to his own opinion as to treat censure with indif ference ; but he neither courted nor feared the press in teference to anything he did while he was doing his duty. Lie was not insensible to the valuable agency of the press, but he did his duty, as he trusted, houest'y and fearlessly, without any regard to ulterior consi derations. Mr. Pelham was quite satisfied no magistrate acted more independently than the one he had the honoup.f addressing, or mo re t o t h e pu bli c sat i sfaction ; artato public functionary had less to fear from public opinion. Mr. BALLANTINE—I have done with the case, and hope I shall hear no more of it. I should be glad if I could relieve this young man, but I cannot. It is due to the public as well as to the police that the constables should be protec!ed. Nothing has been so painful to me as the condition of the young man whose cause you advocate. I have thought of it, and nothing else since, but I won't allow my feelings to interfere rl ith my duty, and I will not altar the sentence. The Duke of Wellington, it is said, w ill shortly go to the islands of G uernsey and Jersey to inspect the for tifications of those dependencies.

To be read in all churches and chapels of England and Wales, on Sunday, the 11th of October, and the two following Sundays:— " A FORM OF PRAYER TO ALMIGHTY GOD. " 0 God, at whose bidding the earth, which sustaineth the life of man, hath withholden in parts of these islands the wonted provision of food, and turned abundance into scarcity, withdraw, we beseech Thee, the judgment of which we are justly afraid, that the poor perish not •by famine. 66 We acknowledge, 0 Lord, that by our strifes and divisions, misuse of Thy gifts, and forgetfulness of Thy manifold mercies, we have justly deserved punishment. We have sinned; ue have grievously sinned against Thee. Yet knowing that Thou art full of compassion, we beseech Thee to pardon the offences of Thy people, to relieve the poor and the needy in their present neces sities, and to give and preserve to cur use the fruits of the earth in all its seasons. " But whatsoever may be Thy pleasure concerning us, give us grace to receive Thy dispensations, whether of judgment or mercy, with entire submission to Thy will; endeavouring to abate Thy displeasure by repentance. and showing forth our sense of Thy goodness by faith fully keeping Thy commandments. " Of ourselves we are unable either to will or to do that which is acceptable in Thy sight. We therefore pray Thee so to open our hearts to the influences of Thy good Spirit, that, showing compassion and mercy each man to his neighbour, and bearing the burdens one of another, we may obtain of Thy favour the supply of our wants, and with hearts knit together in brotherly love, may partake of Thy bounties in peace and contentment, to the honour and praise of Thy name, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen." The prayer is ordered to be read immediately before the Litany ; and when the Litany shall not be read, be fore the prayer for all conditions of men. LLOYD'S SHIPPING. LONDON, Ocr.

E ,XECUTION AT PARIS.—On Friday morning, Jean P.:try, the waiter at a coffee-house at St. Ouen, who, it will be remembered, was last month tried and found guilty of the murder of his mistress, after having at tempted to violate her person, and afterwards robbing the house, was executed at the Barriere St. -Jacques. He retained to the last moment the same revolting indiffer ence which he has evinced ever since the committal of his threefold crime, and when ascending the steps of the scaffold he stopped for a moment, and coolly called out in German to an acquaintance in the crowd, and asked him whether his (Petry's) uncle was present. Almost the entire commune of St. Ouen was present atahe exe cution. ^ A HEavr WEIGHT.—On Tuesday evening last, the celebrated " stout lady," Mrs. Armitage, who had been for some time exhibited here, was desirous to change her locality to Glasgow, and found her way for that purpose to the terminus at flay Weights; but none of the railway carriages were found sufficiently capacious to admit her great bulk; and after some consultation among the officials here it was found necessary, as the only alternative left, to put up a horse-box for the con veyance of the nearly 32 stlyite weight female, in which we understand she got safely and comfortable to the " west of the city."—Caledonian WORKS by ROBERT J.

" How we should live—what eat, what drink, what shun, To reach in health full threescore years andt en." These interesting little volumes, although bearing upon subjects et very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be found of immea surable and general utility, for they tell of matters everyllving crea ture able to understand ought to know, but which information in these enlightened times, except that quality promulgated through questionable channels, is at a very terrible discount. In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths • nature, of human disappointments and their ways of relief, it is net contended that every reader shall become his or her own physician any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we should know the simple principles of our own organization, the laws whereby our existence and the issue thereof in their several healthy states depend, the duties that are expected of us in our individual capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health and happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely. By such knowledge, and which is herein faithftiliy imparted, health will be found to be in our own keeping, and happines s within the attainment of all; by the availment hereof in Inlfilline our duty to ourselves, we secure the lit e advantages on our offspring to follow, and finally by the cultivation sf our faculties, which is in consistent with degenerate health, the mind as well as the body nay be exalted to the summit of perfection, as best becomes the highest of God's creations.
