At the time when the assault was committed, Mr. Straker was acting the part of a salamander, with a large pot of coals, to represent a place which he (Mr. Phillcrts) wou!d not mention to ears polite. Close by was the opposite element, water—a characteristic of Sadler's Wells—a butt of water which was to represent a river, —(Loud laughter.) h. to that river, or butt of water, the fountain bead, did Mr. Hicks try to precipitate the salamander, thus endeavouring "to put out the light and then the life." Since the assault, the defendant, finding the fire too hot or the water too cold, had left the Sadler's Wells establishment, and had gone to the Garrick Theatre, which the Magistrates had licensed. He was not aware, however, performers were licensed to precipitate any person into a ricer or water-butt ; that his client had been assaulted would be proved. • Here an offer of mutual arrangement was suggested ; but refused, 0. P. and P. S., with indignation, the prose. cutor (Straker), the scene-shifter, demanding " justice." Mr. PHILLIPS—WeII, that is very dramatic.—(Laughter.) The prosecutor by day was an East India Dock labourer, and by night a scene-shifter. On the night of the 14th of September, just as the curtain dropped after the perform ance of The Knights qf St. Alban's, at Sadler's Wells Theatre, he was standing behind the back scene with a pan of brimstone and sulphur in his hand to give effect to the real water.

John Murray, Albemarle-street. This was an appeal from an order of the Master of the Rolls, directing a report of the Master to be sent back and reviewed. The matter was argued before the vacation, and the Lord Chancellor now gave judgment. A petition had been presented by Mr. Wyatt, the receiver of the estate ap pointed by the Court, praying an allowance of 1,9271. for nine journeys to Paris, undertaken at the request of the le gatees of the estate and under an indemnity from a part of them, in order to sue in the French Courts a person named Daniel Parker, who was deeply indebted to the estate. The Master, on the petition being referred to him, made a report, stating that Wyatt was entitled to an allowance of one guinea a day for five out of the nine journeys he made to France on account of the proceedings in the French Courts, making altogether a sum of about 5701. The ques tion was argued on exceptions to this report, taken by Air. Wyatt, and the point to be determined rested on a conside ration of the duties which a receiver was called on to dis charge, in getting together the produce of the estate over which he was appointed. The present claim was against the estate,. and the Court was hound to protect it against such demands on the part of a receiver. The report of the Master was, therefore, confirmed, and the order of the Court below reversed. Lord Denman, Lord Chicf-Justise ' _.ord William Bentinck, M. P. Lord Francis Egerton, M.P. .

The other is intended to be a Memorial of his thleat Military Achievements. THE WELLINGTON STATUE IN THE CITY. (From the Times. ) On Monday, the 12th of June, 1837, the Lord Mayor, the Duke of Rutland, Mr. Alderman 1 11 . Wood, Mr. Charles Barclay, Sir F. Trench, Mr. R. L. Jones, and Mr. Rainbow (the Honorary Secretary), waited upon the Duke of Wellington, as a Deputation from the Subscribers to this splendid Civic Tribute with the follow- ing Address : " My Lord Duke, " The - Merchants, Bankers, Traders, and others, of London, have thought it due to your Grace, for the great interest your Grace evinced in forwarding those splendid improvements which now ' adorn the City of London, especially those parts leading to London. Bridge, to cause a Subscription to be promoted for the purpose of erecting an Equestrian Statue of your Grace in the immediate neighbourhood of those great works, and in the centre of this great City. In this view they have been aided by many Noblemen and Gentlemen ; and we, a Deputation from the Committee who have the management of the plan, have to make your Grace acquainted with the progress of their design. And they have also great pleasure in further informing your Grace that they have selected that emi nent artist, Sir F. Chantrey, to execute the work, hoping that your Grace will allow him to communicate with you as occasion may re quire." The Duke, who received the Deputation very kindly, replied :—. " My Lord Mayor, and Gentlemen, " I have been much flattered by the honour which has been done me by the Merchants, Bankers, graders, and others, of London, in having determined to erect an Equestrian Statue of me in the centre of the City, aided as they have been in this project by many Noblemen and Gentlemen. " I was the Minister of the late King, and I did no more than my duty upon the occasion to which you have been pleased to refer, in promoting to the utmost of my power the orders of the King, his Government, and of Parliament, by assisting the City of Lon don to complete their magnificent work, London Bridge, and the approaches thereto on both sides of the river. " I performed this duty zealously, as I have all others on which I have been employed in the public service ; and it is gratifying to me to know that my conduct upon that occasion attracted your at tention and gave you satisfaction."

CATALONIA, OCT. 27.—General Delcarretto has just issued an Order of the Day, - by w►hich the free com munication between our island and Naples, which his Ma jesty had decreed, is again suspended. This was wholly unexpected. By this Order of the Day it is decided that in the valley of Messina and Catalonia, arrivals from fo reign ports shall be subj " et to 14 days quarantine only, and those from ports on both sides of the Faro to only seven days quarantine. BRUSSELS, Nov. 12.—Count Duval de Beau lieu arrived here yesterday from England. 13th.--Prince (Moen, sun of Tippoo Suib. lid an audience of the King yesterday. The Catumander, Marquis Lisbon, presented to-day to the Minister of Foreign Affaires, his letters of recall, which put an end to his mission as Charge d'Affaires at this Court, from the Emperor of Brazil. He goes in the same capacity to the United States of North America. The Chevalier Lima, Secretary of Legation, will act as Charge d'Affaires till the arrival of the head of the The Nympluta. Lutea, like the Nymphma Alba, or white water lily of the lakes of Europe, closes- at sunset, and opens on the following day, the object being to exclude the humidity that is deposited from the air, and which, if it had access to th e p o ll en while yet in the anthem, woul.l rupture it prematurely and prevent the fertilizat:on of the ovules, ther e by hi n d er i ng th em f rom be co Ming perfect seeds. This regularity in the opening and closing of the flowers, dependent upon the intensity of light, caused Linnaeus to place the water-lily on his - Dial of Flowers ; and has been I frequently rem ar k e d b y the poets as the most noted example of those plant a_which " dedicate their beauty-to the sun." His Lordship also gave judgment on this appeal from a decree of the Vice-Chancellor, directing the estate of Mr. Fairlie, of the house of Fairlie and Co., to be held liable for a sum of 10,0001., received by the firm on account of Mr. Fairlie, and which he held under the trusts of the marriage settlements of Mr. Baron. His Lordship was of opinion that the trust had been clearly made out, and that the transactions relied on by the representatives of Mr. Fairlie did not protect his estate. The order of the Court below was therefore affirrped. SKEELES V. SIIEARLEY. nis was also an appeal from the Vice-Chancellor. The plaintiff claimed to be an incumbrance on an estate of which the defendant had purchased the equity of redemption. The question turned on the nature of the first mortgage, and his Lordship, in giving judgment, was of opinion that there was nothing in the transactions to give the plaintiff a lien on the estate, and he therefore affirmed the decree of the Vice-Chancellor, and dismissed the appeal with costs. COURT OF Q UEEN'S BENCH, N0r.15. THE QUEEN V. WALKER. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL applied to the Court for per mission to enlarge the rule obtained in this case for filing a criminal information against the defendant for having published in the Morning Chronicle a letter reflecting upon the character of Mr. Urquhart. It was for the benefit of Mr. Urquhart that this application should be granted, as that gentleman's object in obtaining the rule was only to procure a vindication of his character. It must be admit ted that the imputations cast upon Mr. Urquhart were at present satisfactorily answered by the affidavits he had filed in support of this rule. The defendant, who was an exceedingly respectable gentleman, now stated that he was the particular friend of Lord Ponsonby ; that the let ter in question, now charged to be libellous, had first ap peared in the Times, and with its insertion the defendant had nothing to do ; but he admitted that he bad afterwards caused it 'to be inserted in the Morning Chronicle as an advertisement, because he believed that its publication then was necessary to clear the reputation of Lord Pon sonby from certain libels which had appeared in that paper against him. The letter in question was in fact written by a Captain du Platt, now in Constantinople, and at the time Mr. Walker caused it to be published in the Morning Chronicle lie believed it to be true. His wish now was to be allowed to send to Constantinople to inquire into the circumstances of the matter. If any affidavits should be sent from abroad, they should at once be handed over. to his Learned Friend. He (the Attorney-General) bad men tioned the matter to his Learned Friend Sir W. Follett, and he now prayed that the rule might be enlarged, with out the usual condition of the defendant being obliged to file his affidavits within four days before the Term. Sir W. FOLLETT was not instructed to oppose the mo tion.—Application granted. CONSISTORY COURT, DOCTORS' COMMONS, Nor. 15. THE BRAINTREE CHURCH-RATE CASE. JUDGMENT. Dr. LUSHINGTON said he should have been willing to take time for the consideration of his decision on this case —important as it was—but for the case which had been cited in support of the libel, and which, having been de cided in a superior Court, precluded him from entertaining the merits of this case. In that case, of Garnaden v. Selby, decided in 1799 by Sir Win. Wynn in the Arches', the Court held a rate to be valid Which was made (the parishioners having met and refused one) by the Church warden himself, on his own authority. Had this been a decision by a co-ordinate authority, he should have had much to say - upon it, presenting, as it did, many most sin gular and unaccountable circumstances, and an incompre hensible confusion •of dates. Yet, so deep was his con viction of the necessity of obedience to the precedents of a superior Court, that he considered himself bound to act in accordance with them, even though in opposition to bis own judgment. Therefore, without station- his opinion on the'case now before him—seeing that the precedent re ferred to was strictly in point—notwithstanding its eccen tricity and the various facts attendant on it—although at the time of its decision it excited the greatest surprise among the entire profession, and that during the last thirty years he (Dr. Lushingto) had never heard it - adverted to, he felt bound . to submit to it, and to admit the libel. Atli he did so with the less reluctance, because he understood it was quite certain that the case would be appealed, and it was better it should go to a higher jurisdiction without any judgment of his, one iv ay or the other. COURT OF EXCHEQUER..—Nor. 15. The „ Court sat at a quarter past ten, when judgment was given upon a rule nisi moved for by Sir Frederick Pollock in the case of Alexander v. the G.2aeral Steam Navigation Company. The Court would have been as well satisfied had the verdict - been the other way ; but as, upon reconsi dering the evidence, there appeared to have beau faults on both sides, the verdict ought to be allowed to stand. • In the case of East v. Hall and others, executors of Nisbett, the rule 7tiai was granted .to Sir W. Follett, and also to Mr. Elle in the case of Burghart v. Hall and others, on the ground of the inadmissibility of t he evidence of Lady Nisbet t. The COURT then proceeded to the cases in the Special paper, which were argued at considerable length, but. I os scsied no public interest. BAIL CO Ul? 7'.—Nor. 15. Mr. Justice Littledale took his seat on the Bench at• ten o'clock, when Sir Richard fla.sey Viviaa took the oaths of allegiance and supremacy as a Privy Councillor and Master- General to her Majesty's Board of Ordnance. Sir Matthew Rolfe also took the oaths as Solicitor-General. POOR-LAM AMENDMENT ACT—PARISE OF ST. PANCRAS. Mr. THOMAS said he was insti ucted on the part of the di rectors and overseers of St. Pancras to move to make a rule absolute which bad been granted in the course of last term. His Lordship would recollect, that when the case was argued in full Court their Lordships wanted the rule for a certiorari, and he now made the motion by the consent of the Poor-law Commissioners, who agreed by a letter which had been re ceived by their attorney on the 4th instant, that their order might be quashod.--nule made absolute. IN THE MATTER OF THE CROYDON CANAL COMPANY Ala, B ROW N. Sic FOLLETT moved, on the part of the Croydon Canal Company, to set aside an avvard which had been made by arbi trators in this cause, who, he must observe, were not lawyers, or the present application would be deemed unnecessary. The facts connected with the transaction were very brief. The plaintiff was an engineer, and had been employed by the Croy don Canal Company to erect a steam-engine for their use; but in consequence of the passing of the Brighton . Railroad Act during the last session, the engine had become unneces sary. For the loss sustained 'by the plaintiff by the non-erec tion of the engine, be claimed compensation, as also for an annual incomo of 1001. a year for the direction and manage ment of the engine, together with the profits arisi:l from the public exhibition of it. His claim bring res'sted by the Com pany, the case became the subject of aiLitration, but the award being made in such a vague manner, it r.nnained in the power of Brown to renew his right of action at any time that ho may think proper, particularly as the principal points at issue were omitted by the arbitrators. Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE granted a conditional rule. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. Yesterday Theodore Hicks, tragedi In, was indicted for an assault upon James Straker, scene-shifter. Mr. PHILLIPS, in stating the prosreution,said it was novel and short. The defendant was, or had been, the principal tragedian at Sadler's Was Theatre, and the prosecutor a s cene-shifter. The defendant was charged with attempt ing to roast and then to drown Mr. Straker, and then to cause his descent into the infernal regions. The .cause of quarrel, it appeared, arose out of some communication which Mr. Straker had made to the father of a young lady The CHAIRMAN—Were you playing the part of a sala mander ? Witness—l don't know what that means. The prosecutor then, amidst much laughter, stated that the de fendant, (Mr. - Hicks), in his dress of a Knight, came up to where he was standing with the brimstone pot, collared him, and dragged him down to the course of the river. He meant the water flowing over a tarpaulin to represent a real river. It was five or six inches deep. The defendant pushed him into it. After that he took vs fitness by the heels and endeavoured to force him into a butt of water which was four or five feet deep. That butt was the source of the river. He then followed witness up the stage and kicked him with his boots of a Knight of St. Alban's. At one time witness and the defendant were in the river together. Mr. Taylor, a lessee, told Mr. Hicks to desist from his violence. By the CHAIRMAN—The fire was to light the water. Mr. Pmwrs—Yes, to give the effect pf the moon dancing on it. Two other scene-shifters corroborated the first witness as to the assault. • Mr. PRENDERGAST cross-examine I the prosecutor at length, and elicited from him that the cause of provocation which had incited Mr. Hicks to the assault was, that he (Straker) had told Mr. Thomas, the father of Miss Jane Thomas, a young dancer in the ballet, that Mr. Hicks was too familiar with her, begging at the same time that Mr. Thomas would not let Mr. Hicks know of his information. The only familiarity that Straker could speak to was, that Mr. Hicks had shaken Miss Thomas by the hand. The CHAIRMAN observed, that as an assault had been proved, a verdict of guilty must pass, and that verdict was recorded. The CHAIRMAN, addressing the defendant, saki the judg ment was, that for the assault he psy a fine of Gs. 81. to the Queen. POLICE IN TELLIGENCE. HATTON GARDEN. Yesterday Jchn Davey, aged 18, was brought. before ROGERS, in the custody of Duke, the offieer of this esta blishment, who apprehended him at Leeds, charged by Mr. Reid, linendraper, of High-street, Islington, with having robbed him to a considerable amount. The prisoner was also charged by Mr. Joseph Davey, sil versmith and watchmaker, of No. 101, High Holborn, with having stolen three valuable gold watches, a sitter double bottomed watch, &c. It appeared that the prisoner was formerly an apprentice to Mr. Davey, Who is his uncle ; but in consequence of the weakness of his sight his indentures were cancelled, and he was eventually pieced under Mr. Reid, in whose service he had been but a short time when money was frequently missed from the till, and other property was missing ; but the high recommendation he had received with the prisoner, and the respectability of his connections shielded him from suspicion, and it was found difficult whom to suspect, until about a month ago, when the prisoner was sent home with some valu able shawls, &c. to deliver to a customer, when he never re turned. The prisoner called on Mr. Davey, his uncle, saying that he had come from Mr. Reid, and requesting to have the watches to show to a lady for her approbation ; and so great a trust and confidence were reposed in him that they were immediately handed into his possession. It appears he subsequently started off to Leeds, where he took apart ments at the Templars' Inn, where he lived sumptuously for four days, and ran up a bill of upwards of 91. The landlord suspecting from his youthful appearance that all was not right, suggested the necessity of paying, when the prisoner declined, representing that his connections were of the greatest respectability, and the money would be forthcoming. He, however, absconded, and proceeded as far as Selby in a steam-vessel, where he was traced by "mine host," carrying on the same game, and information having been communicated to the police of London that a " younker" of the prisoner's description was moving rather suspiciously in YOrkshire, Duke was employed to proceed to apprehend him for the above robberies, when he made a confession. Mr.• Reid stated, that within the short time that the pri soner was in his service, he had been robbed extensively. - Mr. Joseph Davey said that he held him in so much con fidence, that he would have entrusted him with property of considerably more value, had be requested to have it. Duke stated that three of the watches were pledged in London and one in Leeds, whi.l he could have had pos session of, had it not been for the shuffling conduct of a constable. He produced several letters found on the pri soner, one of which contained his confession. The prisoner, who is of very youthful appearance, stool at the bar dejectedly, and said not a word. Mr. RocEas required of Mr. DAvey whether he meant to prosecute? He replied in the affirmative ; and Mr. Ro gers, in order to give Dnke an opportunity of bringing for ward necessary evidence, remanded the prisoner until Monday.week. UNION-HALL A lengthened inquiry took place yesterday re'ative to the conduct of a policeman named flenT Smith, of the Li divi sion, who was charged with striking a prisoner that he had in custody, a violent blow with his truncheon on the head, from the eff,.‘ots of which the man sustained considerable in jury. Some gentlemen, who, it was alleged, had witnessed the occurrence, made complaint against the policeman . to the Commissioners of Police, who referred the matter to this dice for public inquiry before the Magistrates. The Magistrates having heard the whole of the evidence pro and con, acquitted the policeman of the charge of using unnecessary violence in the discharge of his duty ; but di-. rected him never to use his stuff except in cases of great emergency, and when he had reason to apprehend personal violence upon himself. Subsequently to the above decision of the Magistrates the policeman was taken by the Superintundent before the Commissioners, and fined fire shillings for the efleged assault on Jones, and directions were given that he should he trans ferred to another division.
