By Command, __ W. L. MABERLY. DIRECT LONDON AND BRIGHTON RAILWAY. A T a numerous and highly respectable Meeting o, -CIL the libabitants of the Borough of Brighton, held at the Town Hall on Wednesday, 25th January, 1837, for the purpose of taking into consideration the best means of ensuring the success of that Line of Railway which would be most beneficial to the said Town, The HIGH CONSTABLE in the Chair, Resolved—That this meeting is confirmed in the ()pinion expressed by the inhabitants of the town of Brighton, and conveyed to both Houses of Parliament in petitions (luring the last Session, that a communication between London and Brighton, by means of a flail road, will be of the utmost importance to the town, and at the same time productive of great national benefit ; and that this meeting is also of opinion that the Direct Line, as now improved by Sir John Rennie and Mr. Rastrick, is best calculated tolpromote the interests of the inhabitants of Brighton, and at the same time to afford the greatest benefit to the counties of Surrey and Sussex.—Resolved, therefore, that a petition be presented to the House of Commons in support of that line. Resolved—That the following Petition to the House of Commons be adopted:— To -the Honourable the Commons of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland in Parliament assembled. The Humble Petition of the Undersigned Inhabitants of the Town of Brighton, in the County of Sussex, agreed to at a Public Meeting held at the Town Hall, of Brighton aforesaid, on the 25th day of January, 1837. Showeth,—That your petitioners are confirmed in the opinion expressed in their petition to your Honourable House in the last Session of Parliament, that a communication between London and Brighton by means of a Railroad, will be of the utmost im portance to the town, and at the same time productive of great national benefit. That of all the five projected Lines of Railroad between the Metropolis and Brighton, that proposed by Sir John Rennie and Mr. Rastrick, called the Direct Line, is by far the best, not only as affecting the interest of Brighton, but in a general point of view. Commencing at London Bridge, it takes its course through the heart of the Counties of Surrey and Sussex, and terminates at Church-street, in Brighton, with branches to the port of Shoreham on the west, and to Lewes and the port of Newhaven on the east, whilst it affords an opportunity of laying down other branches through Dorking and Horsham to the western parts of Surrey and Sussex, and of forming a communication with the South-Eastern Dover Railway ; but avoiding the long tunnel and enormous earth works which present themselves both at Ozted and Godstone, and must ever prove an insuperable objection to that Line. That the Direct Line has, since it was presented to your Ho nourable House in the last Session of Parliament, been very much improved, the objectionable Curves having been avoided, and the Tunnelling, which amounted to three miles and a half, having been reduced to less than three quarters of a mile upon the whole Line, and that divided into two Tunnels, and that this has been accomplished by adding only one quarter of a mile to the length of the Line, whilst it has enabled the projectors to diminish the works very considerably ; that the Terminus at Brighton is infinitely bet ter than that proposed last year, and, in fact, as good as could pos sibly have been selected ; in short, it is the opinion of your Peti tioners that th e Di rect Li ne i s not on l y superior to e i t h er o f t h ose contemplated, but is obviously the best that could be found for a Railway from London to Brighton, for, whilst it insures the most direct communication between those places, with the best termini, it is capable of conveying to the Counties of Surrey and Sussex a greater share of a d van t age th an e ith er of the other Lines. Your Petitioners, therefore, humbly, but most earnestly, pray your Honourable ouse to pass an Act for making the Direct Line of Railroad from London to Brighton. Resolved,—That a Committee consisting of seven, be appointed for the purpose of obtaining signatures to the said Petition, and of arranging as to the presentation thereof, with power to Lid to their numbers ; and that such Committee be empowered to wait upon noblemen and gentlemen having parliamentary influence, and request them to support the Direct Line ; and that the Committee consist of the following persons :—Messrs. Goodall, Creasy, Good, Hallett, Thomas Cooper, John Patching, and Alger. Resolved—That the Members for the Borough be requested to present the petition to the House of Commons, and strenuously to support its prayer ; and that the Members for the County, and also the Members for the Boroughs in the County, be also most earnestly requested to support the said Petition. Resolved—That a memorial be presented to Lord Abergavenny, the Lord of the Leet, embodying the substance of the petition, and begging him to use his Parliamentary influence in promoting the object of the meeting; and that such memorial be signed by the Chairman on behalf of the meetin.. Resolved—That the cordial thanks . of this Meeting be given to those Peers and Members of the House of Commons who supported the Direct Line in Parliament in the last Session. JOHN ADE, Chairman. Resolved—That the cordial thanks of this Meeting be given to the Chairman, for his very able and impartial conduct in the Chair. NEW NOVEL BY THE AUTHOR OF " VIVIAN GREY."

When to bed I shall go at nine, Take my boots to my footman here; Tell him to make them superbly shine, And bring them again when the morn is near. Bid him get no vile trash for scrubbing, To sully the boots so stylish and light ; But go to the Strand, a ,, d buy there for rubbing, Some of Warren's Jet Blacking, to polish them bright. When the task of his brush is o'er, Take the boots from the servants hall ; Hang them up at my chamber door, When the hair-dresser comes to give me a call. Then, as old Frizzle arrives to dress me, And sees his fat face, as forward he walks, He'll start with surprise, and cry " God bless me! This beats all the mirrors in England by chalks." Take this Blacking-pot, now o'erflowing, To grace your shoe-hole whilst I'm away; Never, oh ! never, its jet bestowing, Unless it gives polish as bright as day : And when, in his boots, some astonisli'd old fellow, So brightly reflected, his face shall espy, With gratitude then he the secret shall tell, oh ! At Warren's, the Strand, is the place to buy. This Easy-shining and Brilliant Blacking prepared by ROBERT WARREN, 30, Strand, London; and sold in every Town in the United Kingdom.

Yesterday, between twelve and one o'clock, the in habitants of the Broadway, Deptford, were thrown into the utmost alarm by a large torrent of water rushing completely through their houses. The flood was caused by an overflow of the Croydon Canal. In upwards of 200 houses the water was three, and, in some instances, five feet deep. The Old Fountain was in a dreadful state ; no one could get in or out, the water being so high as to put out the tap-room and parlour fires. Many of the doors were ac tually eompoed, to prevent the water entering. The roads at Lee and Lewisham were impassable for foot passengers, and many acres of land are covered. The damage done is very considerable. Despatches arrived at the Austrian Embassy last night, from Paris ; they were brought by Dr. Belinaze, the medical attendant of the Embassy, who had been three days in Paris on urgent professional busiqess. A King's messenger was sent off, after the breaking up of the Cabinet on Wednesday, from Downing-street, with despatches for the King, at the Royal Pavilion, Brighton. Lately, in demolishing the cellars in the barracks of the citadel of Antwerp, the skeleton of a child was found built up in an opening of the wall, which appeared to have been made expressly for its reception, STRATFORD ON AVON, THURSDAY (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) Yesterday the . Grand Conservative Dinner to E. J. Shirley, Esq., M.P., came off in the Town Hall at Strat ford on Avon, B. Granville, Esq., in the chair. With all their exertions in giving tickets to any one that would ac cept of them, the number collected together to do honour to Mr. Shirley fell far short of their expectations: They boasted that not less than 300 of the constituency of South Warwickshire would assemble together on this oc casion ; guess, then, what was their surprise and disappoint ment when only half that number made their appearance. I need scarcely add that the company was composed of parsons, Tory landjords, and a few dust-licking &liners; who dare not do otherwis.e than follow where their masters beckon. After dinner there was an abundance of speechi fying and a "variety. of toasts given, among which, the Bishop and Clergy of the Diocese of Worcester afforded the Rev. Boudier of Warwick an opportunity of deliver ing himself of a speech remarkable for its stupidity and in consistency. He laboured most outrageously to substan tiate the propriety of the clergy mixing with, and interesting themselves in secular matters ; and he could not see why a spice of politics should not be thrown into and mingled with the abundance of piety, for which that illustrious body are so infinitely pre-eminent. He went raving mad with ecstasy at the thought that the Bishops were still allowed to take their seats in the Lords, and concluded by hurling an ava lanche -of abuse upon the devoted head of Mr. O'Connell. After the health of Mr. Shirley had been drunk that gentleman rose, and proceeded to rummage his pockets for extracts from old Tory newspapers, and having succeeded in pulling from the very inmost recesses of his waislcoat pocket some scraps of paper very much in the shape of unpaid election accounts, and which tended very mate rially to impede the stream of eloquence which was burst ing from his lips, he sat down, leaving his auditors as much in the dark about what he has done in Parliament, and what he is likely to do, as they were before he got up to speak. There were several speakers present, who came there, as it appeared, for the express purpose of lauding to the skies the principles of Conservatism, and of hurling to the very bottom of hell his Majesty's Ministers, their friends and supporters. But, with all their spirit-stirring Conservative fire, and their shouting, they could not keep life in the party, and before 9 o'clock in the. evening .‘ The lights were out, And the banquet hall deserted." There never was a more miserable affair than this dinner, considering the fact, that it was got up for the express pur pose of showing a mighty re-action in favour of Toryism.

POLLING DISTRICTS. The report or the committee for divid:ng the county into polling districts, and assigning one of such districts to each polling-place, pursuant to the 2d and 3d of William IV., cap. 64, sec. 3, and Gth and 7th William IV., cap. 102, sec. 1, was brought up, and agreed to. CRIMINAL JURISPRUDENCE.—PRISONERS' COUNSEL BILL. Sir PETER LAURIE then rose, pursuant to notice, to bring forward his motion " that a committee be appointed to inquire into the recent increased expenditure of county rates, as regards the criminal jurisprudence." The increased expense of the administration of justice at the Central Criminal Court was 3,0001. between the years 1835 and 1836, while sixty jurymen were put to inconvenience, the police force were withdrawn from the discharge of their proper duty, and the general interests of justice were ne gleeted. After referring to the opinions of Lord Wharn cliffe and Mr. Sergeant Spankie, the worthy Alderman concluded by making the motion above given. Sir .1. S. LILLIE and Mr. RAWLINSON opposed the mo tion, and Mr. LAURIE supported it, when, The CHAIRMAN having left the Chair, then stated that his sentiments on the subject of the Prisoners' Counsel were already well known. He would not, therefore, repeat them ; but as long as an Act of Legislature was in ex istenee-upon.the subject, the Court was bound to submit to it—to give it a fair trial, and not take any measure to ask for its repeal when it had only been a few months in operation. Mr. WEST and Mr. HALL supported the motion, which, after a few words from Sir PETER LAURIE, in reply, was agreed to. • GIN PALACES. On the motion of Mr. HALCOMBE, " A Select Commit tee was appointed to consider and report to the Court upon the present state - of the law as regards the Magistrates granting public-hOuse licenses to shops selling spirituous li quors by retail, and whether, in their opinion, any further Legislative provision be necessary. upon this subject ; and for securing to the public an unadulterated supply of such liquors."—The Court then adjourned. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY, v. 26. MILLIGAN V. MITCHELL. Mr. Wroansi opened an appeal in this case on the part of the plaintiff. The bill was originally filed in 1833, its object being to obtain a declaration of the Court that no minister, save one who belonged to the Presbyterian Church of Scotland, was entitled to officiate in the, Scotch Church' at Woolwich. The church in question was erected about 1794, by the subscriptions of persons professing to'be mem bers of the Presbyterian Kirk of Scotland, and that no one Lilt a minister duly authorised by the General Assembly should be permitted to preach in it. Up to 1830 the wishes of The founders were strictly fulfilled, but oh the death of Mr. Bligh, who had been Minister for a very long period, thvongregation eected Mr. Alexander Scott. This gen tleman, after a very short interval, was discovered to be 4 dissenter from the doctrines of the Church, and complaints being made to the General Assembly, be was ultimately deprived of his license. A majority of the congregation were, however, determined to have Dr. Scott as their mi nister, and they accordingly re-elected him, and the sole question in the cause was whether a majority of the pre sent congregation have it in their power to bestow the ap pointment of minister on any person who does. not agree in belief with the original subscribers, the founders of the church. The arguments were not concluded at the rising of the Court. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JAN. 26.• • THE KING V. THOMAS. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL was instructed to apply for a rule to show cause why an information in the nature of a quo . warranto should not be issued to a Mr. Thoitias, com manding him to show by what authority he claimed to ex ercise the office of Town-clerk and Clerk of the Peace for the borough of Tewkesbury. —The Court granted the rule. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Jex. 2G. RYAN V. STACKPOOLE. This was an action for work and labour, upon a quantum 7//eniii, by which the plaintiff claimed compensation for ser vices rendered by him in the character of agent to the de fendant. The case, it will be remembered, arises out of certain proceedings taken by the defendant in France, to enforce a decision pronounced by the House of Lords in the case of Stackpoole v. Stackpoole, declaring the defen dant to be entitled to a great portion of the Stackpoole property, against the assets of Count Stackpoole, who was then resident in France ; and in the course of which the plaintiff was commissioned upon certain terms by the de fendant to proceed to France, and endeavour to bring the matter to a successful issue in the French Courts. At the trial, which took place at Westminster, before the Lord Chief Justice, during the sittings after last Trinity Term, a verdict was found for the plaintiff, damages 1,5004 ; and in the course of last Term a rule nisi was obtained by Mr. Kelly either for a nonsuit oe a new trial, on the ground of excessive damages. Mr. Sergeant TALFOURD showed cause against the rule. Mr. Sergeant WILDE was heard on the other side. The CHIEF JUSTICE—We'II ccntinue this on Saturday mm ning. CONSISTORY COURT, JAN. 26. WILLIAMS V. FARLAR. This, which is a suit for brawling and chiding, is pro moted by the Rev. Theodore Williams, against Mr. Wm. Farlar. The Rev. Gentleman, who is the Vicar of the pa rish of Hendon, Surrey, attended at a vestry, held in the vestry-room of that parish, and was called to the chair by the parishioners presimt, among whom was Mr. Farlar, the party proceeded against in this suit. During the course of the business the latter gentleman, whilst reading some re solutions which had been passed, omitted to aspirate the word " Hendon," upon which Mr. Williams taunted him respecting his education, and he, in a moment of exaspera tion, replied that he (Mr. Williams) was no gentleman ; that his conduct was unworthy of a clergyman ; and that he was a disgrace to his cloth. For these, and other offensive expressions, which were pleaded in the libel, to have been used by Mr. Farlar, this suit was instituted. An allegation responsive to these charges was this day offered for admission. The KING'S ADVOCATE, for Mr. Farlar, supported the admissibility of the allegation. Dr. ADDAMS, for Mr. Williams, contended that though the allegation as a whole was admissible, very many altera tions were necessary. The Learned JUDGE having suggested several reforma tions, which hc_eonsidered necessary, referred it back to Counsel for that purpose. INSOLVENT DEBTOR'S COURT, JAN. 25. IN THE MATTER OF THE BARONESS MUSKERRY. Mr. \VOODROFFE applied on the part of the Baroness Muskerry, who had filed a petition to be heard praying to be discharged from custody, for leave to file another, nunc pro tunc. The one filed was in the name of the Baroness Muskerry, and, as her Ladyship had married a gentleman named Radford, recently deceased, it was feared that an objection would be made on the hearing which would have the effect of vitiating the proceedings. The Learned Com missioners ultimately ordered the petition to be filed in the name of Sarah Radford, known as the Baroness Muskerry, notwithstanding the one already on the files. COUNTY COURT, KINGSG.ITE-STIZSET, JAN. 25. THE ARCHITECTURE OF A COBBLER'S STALL: INS was an adjourned case that had been referred for arbitra tion. Two carpenters were to decide as to the architectu ral beauties of the erection, and two veritable translators of soles were directed to examine the building as to its fit ness, &c. COMMISSIONER—Swear all the parties. Here the two carpenters and two cobblers were sworn, and the following unique dialogue took place : The Carpenters—Sir, we have examined this 'ere cob bler's stall according to your orders, and we finds it all reg lar, and well made, with a door at each end on it, and a winder in the middle. The work's werry well put together, and no cobbler don't ought to grumble.—(Laughter.) COMMISSIONER—WeII, but was it big enough ? The Carpenters—That depends on the size of the cobblers, my Lord. COMIIIIISIONER—ExactIy so ; but is it made according to order? Both Cobblers together—No, my Lord, it aint water-proof—it's full of cracks—it— CommtssioNEß—One at a time, gentlemen. A Cobbler—My Lord, neither you nor any other gentle man could impossibly work in it ; it's a disgrace to the harchitecture of this ere hage. Here the builder or architect stepped forward, and most indignantly affirmed, that Christopher Wren could not have built such a stall, an assertion which the jury did not seem 'nclined to doubt in the least. A modol of the stall was produced—one part/ insisted that It was too little, and the A NOVEL WASER.—A coalheaver, with the usual appurtenances of huge knocked knees and round herculean shoulders, known at the City Basin as " Yaffling Biily," summoned a brother coalheaver at the same wharf for 10s. Mr. Dusots—What's it for ? Plaintiff—Vy, my Lord, I'll tell you. We chaps as likes 'ard work likes lots o' beer and wittles, and sometimes we tries (t ie) which on US can heat most, and drink mo=t beer, and you'd be asto nished if so be as you com'd amang us some ngfit, and seed us.—(Laughter•.) Well, I makes a wager as how, arter we'd unloaded Lord Melbourne— A Juryman—Unloaded who, Sir? Plaintiff—Vy, Lord Melbourne, and a precious big barge, too, I can tell yer, only precious leaky. I expects we shalt all go down in her someday—(Laughter) —but that's neither here nor there. Howsomdever I betted a bet as how I'd drink twenty pots of heavy all to my own cheek, in twenty quarters of a hour. —(Laughter.) Vell, ye gets rid of oh! cranky (the barge), and I goes regler to work on the beer, and I vim it, my Lord—(Laughter)---I drink't every drop on it, and'ad a quarter of an hour to spare ; and then this 'ear unhonour able feller said he initial got no money, and so I took legal ,adwiee, and took the for on him. COMMISSIONER—What do say to this ungentlemanly transaction ? Defendant—Vy I 'nose the lorsas well as !.e does, and you 'nose as how he can't rekiver not in I.int for ; its a grinding transaction.—(Roars of laughtso, bet you two to one you'll sartiiily hill over board one of these 'ear days.—(The latter observation was made very significantly.) You 'nose hour rules, yer war mint.—(Laughter.)• COMMISSIONER—Order, Sir, and don't threaten the poor man. 'lie jury cannot entertain the case. It is dismissed. Defendant, waving his genuine fan tiler in triumph, turned to the plaintiff, and said, " Now, whii 'nose the lor, hays, my little yaffler ?"—(Laughter.) The smutty liti gants left the Court highly complimenting each other ; after the highly approved .fashion of Puddle Dock.. CE INTELLIGENCE. •- . • • -414TTON:G.ARDEN.

THE HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY.—We are sure we speak the honest sentiments of nine-tenths of the inhabitants of the island, when we assert that the pre sent Sessions of the Honourable the House of Assembly is as remarkeble fbr the cool, the statesman-like, delibera tion of its proceedings, as too many of the former sessions were notoriously the reverse. We by no means intend any improper reflection on Members, or on measures here tofore introduced or discussed ; but every one who has read the history of this country will agree with us, that the va luable time of the House has too often been frittered away, ' either in vain crimination and recrimination between Mem bers, or in still more vain, frivolous, and egotistical vapour , ing. It must also be confessed, that circumstances over which the House had no controul have, for a very long time past, either "paralyzed" their energies, or tended to render their enactments abortive. The minds of our Re presentatives, before cramped by the chill of despondency, appear again to expand and be excited by the genial warmth afforded by reciprocal confidence. And such should ever be the case :—a well-regulated conduct on the part of the Executive will always meet with a corresponding degree of respect and business-like decision on the part of the people's Representatives. We repeat, therefore, our happy convic tion, that the proceedings of the preSent Session will be handed down to posterity as one particularly favourable to the interests of the country, and as highly creditable to the majority of the Members of which it is composed. But. let it be observed, that we mean no invidious comparisons. Our respect for the Members of our present Assembly ex tends individually to them all—'tis true we have seen, on many points, much diversity of opinion among some of them, but we firmly believe, notwithstanding, that each has spoken the conscientious dictates of his heart, which is all their constituents can expect. It augurs well for the coun try, that such a cordial spirit has again found its way within the walls of the Jamaica St. Stephen's —a spirit which we trust will no more depart from them. It is to be hoped that the business of the country now be speedily got through. In the meantime it may he proper to observe, that many excellent Bills have received the assent of the Executive.—Royal Jamaica Gazette. SLAVERS TAKEN.—The success of two of his Majesty's ships in capturing vessels engaged in the nefa rious, the most inhuman traffic in the blood and sinews of our fellow man is noticed in the following manner in the !Vest Indian (a Barbadoes paper) of the 31st of October : " The Buzzard, a British cruizer, has captured seven Slavers. with 2,673 Africans on board, between the 17th December 1834 and the 4th June last. The Vestal, within the last twelve months, has taken four vessels of this description, with nearly 1,600 unfortunate captives to the cupidity of the Portuguese and Spanish slave traders. These instances of the perseverance and skill of the Commanders and crews of those vessels are worthy of commemoration."—Jamalea Gazette. CORONER'S INQUEST.-011 Wednesday night, at eight o'clock, an inquest was held at the Crown and Grapes, Little Newport-street, Leicester-square, on the body of Mrs. Elizabeth Evans, aged 57, mother of the proprietor of the above house. The deceased retired to her bed chamber, having previously supped with her son and his family. The servant, who was accustomed to fetch the deceased's candle after she retired, on entering the room was surprised and shocked at discovering the old lady on her knees by the bedside quite dead. An alarm was given, and a surgeon promptly arrived, but his efforts proved unavailing. He attributed her death to apoplexy. It was the practice of the deceased to address her Maker on her knees by the bedside every night, and from the po sition of the body there could be doubt that she was so engaged when her existence was terminated. Verdict-- << Died by the visitation of God."
