LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, JULY 4, 1837. ' In-the House of Lords, little else was done but the pre sentation of petitions, and the advancement a stage of several Bills, the enumeration of which would be but a - 4.‘. recapitulation of the particulars contained in our Parlia mentary report. We shall therefore in this place merely -,.., observe, that some interesting conversation ensued on the --/ presentation of a petition by Lord Belhaven " from the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland, praying for "; additional Church accommodation." Lord Melbourne con ' i eluded some remarks upon the subject of the petition, saying Ik. that " he undoubtedly thought that the subject of extending ~„ Church accommodation in Scotland was one which Govern ment ought to take into speedy and serious consideration. At . the same time, how ever , it was un d en i a bl e t h at t h e quest i on ''. was not a single one, or a question which could be con sidered abstractedly. He could scarcely help thinking that if a man in Scotland were really desirous to go to . Church, he would n o t fi n d an y diffi cu l ty i n d o i ng so. ... But he was ready to consider the subject. He was ready to go further. He would promise the assistance to the # object of the petitioners which had before been promised, if "'the property which was the property of the Church was Mnow at the disposal of the Crown and Parliament—the rt/hereditary revenues. He would he ready to consider 1-1 r whether these funds were not available f or th e purposes i n ~: view, and whether these c ould b e e ff ec t e d i n the manlier in ;:.:- which it was now supposed they could. If t h ese f un d s t l were found insufficient, and it was report e d t o b e w i se an d vOexpedient, then he for one would go farther u p on t h e sub ject, and say that the subject ought to be immediately taken up and receive serious consideration." In the House of Commons many miscellaneous and other estimates, moved in Committee of Supply, were voted. A sum of 200,0001. was voted for her Majesty' s Ci v il 'List ; and 0 1,0001. were voted away for the r e p a i rs o f r blarlborough llouse. On the vote for 88,0001. towards ierecting new Houses of Parliament being proposed, there was a division : it was then carried b y a majority o f 80 . v It The grant of 142,000/ on acommt of Canada was also op `}?posed ; but ultimately carried. During the discussion on ,this item, Lord JOHN RUSSELL said that although no Bill t:founcled On time resolutions relat , e to Canada conid be t ' ftbrought in this Session, the Government had most un doubtedly not ab a ndoned, but intNltled to ac t u p on t h ose 2fi resolutions. The Imprisonment for Debt Bill was read a t7:tlmird time and passed. ~,, El Several Bills were last night read a third time and p sscd in the Commons, among which were the Im i.,priscument for Debt Hill, and the Bits of Exchan!-Te Bill. The object of this latter Bill is to extend the ...toperation of a Bill passed last Session, for suspending 7 4 the Usury laws on all 13i is having only three months to run : the Bill of last nitilit enlarges that time to ttrelve months, which will be a great relief to )people in trade, by making that transaction kgittnzatc which would otherwise be usurious. Now we do not _'see why the operation of lending money at a higher '!rate than five per cent. should be limited to hills of exchange. There are a thousand other equally valid on winch commercial people vould wish to barrow money for short periods—such !;rs wine warrants, &c., deeds, leases, &c., &c. Now, the Bill were to include such as these, how manifold fLvould be the benefits of its operation ! What a saving would there not be to people by depositing these, ':'..instead of the cumbrous method now resorted to by the intervention of and fin• the benefit of lawyers I The Ipresent practice is nothing better than a species of „ilegerdemain—a mere evasion of the usury laws—or what is familiarly termed an attempt to cheat the Devil in the dark. Besides the immorality of such manceuvering, the needy are made to pay enormously. oWe trust that Lord BROU3TIAM, or some other ;Noble Lord, will remedy these defects, before the Bill rtpass through the Upper Howie. 4 It is but Earls of TriADDI a very s h ort t i me s i nce the par nubile, the Lords,N anal ABERDEEN', performed a qduet in th e Hous N e G of T ° the burden of the song being Church ex t ens i on i' 'L oScotland.rd Last night the performance w as repeated, ABERDEEN charoint , c., e, .the Government with hostility to the Scottish Estab- Ilishment, and his brother Peer chiming in with all that suavity of tone and manner which characterises the Noble Lord's public exhibitions. The obje c t 7-which these Noble Earls had in view can be no secret - to any one who has observed their political demeanour. -They have a party purpose cf immense importance to - :serve at the present moment, and they imagined they could not perform this service more effectually than by ,;.raising the cry of enmity to the Kirk on the part of : her MAJESTY'S Ministers, on the eve of a general election. Br this time, we have no doubt, they are -. heartily sorry that they meddled with the matter, for :they most completely missed their mark. We are . quite sure after the declaration made by Lord MEL BOURNE last night, that if any portion of the Clergy of the Church of Scotland are unfriendly to the pre- ` seat Government, it must be fur some other reason az 35 than its hostility to tliat rz.‘ligious Establi,huent.

This is the language held by A..etwc Ditto, 5 per cant., Prime Minist er , an d we would put it to any man Account .. 'HIS DAY ATONI of common u n derstanding, whether it o ught not to satisfy the greatut stickler for religious establishments ? (y ecenson's)... We repeat, that when we look at the change which has been taking place of late years among the masses, 'ay Cc-A:Tarty on the subject of such establishments—when we think Nhaveii r of the immense rapidity with which the voluntary principle has spread, and the immense number of converts which it is daily making—we are not a little surprised at the hardihood of Lord MELBOURNE'S declaration ; and we are still more amazed at the infa tuation of those who, professing themselves Church men, are not above all things eager to close with the proposition. Of one thing they may rest assured, that the time is fast, very fast approaching, when it will be impossible for any Minister of this country to carry into effect the intentions expressed by Lord MEL BOURNE in so kindly a spirit to the Established Church of Scotland. Notwithstanding all the stir the clergy and persons interested in the continuation of Church Rates have made to get up petitions, the number of signatures to petitions to the Commons against the Government plan, amounts only to the half of those in favour of it. According to the last report of the Committee on Public Petitions, the total number of signatures to the former is 327,645, while the signatures to the latter amount to 653,916. So much for the voice of the country being against the measure. But, what is still more important, if the names to the petitions against it were analysed, they would be found composed of three classes—the clergy, the ignorant peasantry, and that very respectable section of the Tories who hate the very name of Reform. The Dissenters deserve great credit for their perseverance on this subject; for it is quite clear that but for the strong manifestation they made previous to the meeting of Parliament we should never have heard of the appointment of a Committee on Church lands. We regard this as the most important measure of the Ses sion, and, singular enough, the parties who differ most on the subject, Dissenters and high Churchmen, have combined in forcing it upon the Government. The Duke of WELLINGTON, by his opposition to reform, brought on the crisis ; and the Churchmen, by opposing the Ministerial plan for the abolition of Church-rates, have paved the way for instituting a searching enquiry into a species of public property, of which the great body of the people know nothing. Without their opposition no such enquiry would have taken place. We have frequently had occasion to thank the Tories for what they have done in the cause of Reform ; but for nothing do they better deserve thanks than for their determined support of this ob noxious tax. We are glad to see that the independent electors of East Cumberland are setting about in right earnest the good work of relieving that division of the county, from being any longer misrepresented by Sir JAMES GitAHANt. The time has arrived when it becomes the imperative duty of the electors to visit him with the fitting reward of his apostacy, and to teach him, however well he may stand in his own estimation (and we happen to know the Cumberland Baro net has a tolerably fair opinion of himself), or in the estimation of his quondam opponents, the LOWTHERS, since his notorious apostacy, that in po litical as well as in private life, the adage which de clares honesty to be the best policy holds equally good. We do not envy the feelings of Sir JAMES when over his _" tea and toast," he tells up the number of respectable Electors of East Cumber land whose names are attached to the requisition presented to Major AGLIONBY, and in which their opinion of the consistency of the Cumberland Baronet is faithfully recorded. A kindred spirit of Tory philanthropy will no doubt dictate to him the neces sity of lending Sir JAMES a helping hand, in " let ting him down" easily, and of seeing him decently in terred in the mausoleum of political apostates. A subscription has been commenced to defray the ex penses to be incurred by the Liberal candidates in relieving East Cumberland of its present mis-repre sentative, and we earnestly call upon all true Reform ers to crmtribute liberally towards the consummation of a national obj.ct so devoutly to he wished for. We have received the whole of the P2ris papers la Sunday. In the course of that day, the following in. telligcnce was conveyed to the Government by tele. graph : " NARBONNE, JULY 1. " PERPIGNAN, JUNE 30.—Rayo, with 4,300 Catalonians, forming the advanced guard of Don Carlos, on the 23d of June had his outposts at Rubi, Castell, Bisbal, and San Cugat. " The head-quarters of the Baron de Meer were at Marlorell. It is believed that he has 15,000 infantry, and 1,400 cavalry. Provisions were scarce. At Barcelona 750,000 dollars had been realized under the name of a forced loan, for the use of the army. On the 28th of June, Eroles, at the head of 2,000 men, detwinkled at La Sea d'Urgel 10,000 dollars, under the threat that if they were not paid he would burn the houses." This intelligence is calculated to re-inspire the hopes of the Constitutionalists. Between the Carlist rear guard and the advanced guard of DE MEER'S division there is only a distance of some three or four leagues at the utmost—a space insufficient to admit of any unrestrained movement on the part of the insurgents. Should the PRETENDER menace Barcelona, he could not possibly avoid risking a general ei►gagement, were DE MEER disposed to put all to the issue of one. The Carlists arc evidently trying to open a communi , cation with France by way of Perpignan, which would enable them to maintain an uninterrupted correspon ' deuce with the rebels of Biscay and Navarre, as well as with the Foreign Powers who, through the agency of the Court of Sardinia, secretly support the cause of civil and religious despotism in the Peninsula. But zeal and activity on the part of the QUEEN'S Generals cannot fail to render these plans abortive. The passes of the Eastern Pyrennees are for the most part both difficult and dangerous ; the population on the Spanish frontier is neither rich not numerous ; and therefore a Carlist artful could not subsist itself among the moun tains till furnished with the necessary supplies by con traband—for from France do the Carlists expect to receive all their rations as soon as a communication can be opened between the PRETENDER'S Ministers and his friends in that country. The Moniteur contains the following favourable official news from Saragossa :- - " The Captain-General of Aragon publishes a dispatch from the third section of the Army of the Centre, in which it is stated that the Governor of Morilla, on the 20th inst., sent a detachment of 60 men of the regiment of Santiago, 16 Na tional Guards, and four horsemen, towards Mirambel, where the rebel junta of Aragon, with an escort of 100 men, hap pened to be. After a stout defence on the part of the rebels, the commanding officer entered tho town at the head of his small detachni:nt,, and fulfilled his cOlinnission Uy Killing 15 and taking nine pri-oner3. " Among the killed are D. Jaime Cams, Lieutenant-Colo nel, and two other members of tl'e Junta ; D. Jose Milian, Dean of Nloya ; D. Antonio Da Costa, Lieutenant-Colonel ; D. Francisco Marti, -Captain of cavalry ; D. Jose Ramon Loper, Adjutant; and three officers more; and among the prisoners is D. Ramon Mateo, assessor of the Junta. The other members had left the day before for Cantavirja." This successful skirmish was followed on the next d sy by another equally favourable, though not so important in its results. Three hundred Christinos surprised two regiments of CABRERA'S division in a narrow pass near Rivens, on the Ebro, of whom nearly all were killed on the spot. The few that escaped plunged into the Ebro and swam for their lives. The Garde National of Marseilles of the 28th ult., contains copies of the various documents connected with the trial of General de RIGNY before a court martial, which was to be held on that day, It will be remembered that the General was charged by Marshal CLAUSEL with cowardice in conducting the disastrous retreat from Constantine, and that to wipe away this stain from his character he prayed and obtained a trial by court-martial. It was stated in Paris on Sunday evening that the Government had received a telegraphic dispatch from Toulon, announcing the conclusion of the trial, and General de ItraNY's honourable ac quittal. _ . Contrary to general expectation, the Chamber o Deputies,having voted the required supplies on Satur• day, will not sit again. The P.ers, however, will con. tinue to sit till the several projects of laws sent up from the Lower Chamber are disposed of. This will oc cupy them for the greater part, if not the whole, of the current week. We copy from the Journal des Debats of Sunday the following general observations on the impression made on the public mind of France by the legislative events and policy of the important Session which awaits bu the formality of a termination : " The Chamber of Deputies has had its last sitting. The members have adopted the custom of separating immediately after the vote of the budget, without waiting for the Peers to terminate their part in the legislation. This' long session has been cut in two by the Ministerial crisis, and the retreat of cer tain personages towards whom our affection and esteem are known. But we will not rake up the past ; it would be to make the dispute a personal one, which would be by no means fitting the dignity of their character. We shall merely re mark, that in the early part of the session Mr. Duchatel passed some excellent financial measures, and that M. Guizot carried his law on secondary instruction, a memorial of his li berality and talent. Striking events, rather than legislative la bours, signalised the latter part of the session. The new Mi nistry found the public mind wearied and irritated by the Minis terial crisis ; and its task has been to calm this irritation. Many of its acts we might blame ; but, on the whole, the conduct of the Cabinet of the 15th of April has not wanted talent or address ; if it has not extinguished, it has at least softened divisions. It has brought about a truce, if not a peace, and the truce is de lightful and welcome after such unceasing combats. Whatever sacrifices have been made by the Ministry to this great object, they have at least not been thrown away. Parties, after having tasted of peace can with difficulty recommence war, nor can they find in their hearts either the same violence of passion, nor the same chances of success. The Ministry has renounced some of the guarantees of order which have become law ; it renounced merely some others proposed. It is impossible not to be struck by the results of this prudent and conciliatory policy. The Ses sion has peaceably terminated, laws of confidence have been voted, the country is quiet and confiding, and party without a pretext for strife. Such has the Ministry to offer by way of justification to impartial men. Without any great parliamentary struggle, the Ministry has obtained from the Chambers what it desired—the funds requisite to guard against dangerous persons and cabals at home, the mainte nance of a force in Africa sufficient to win respect and peace from the Arabs, an augmentation of salary for magistrases and prefects,and a fitting dotation for the heir to the Crown. There are, moreover, the amnesty and the Prince's marriage. It would be idle to discuss the principle of the amnesty : it must be judged by its effects. The country accepted the measure with favour ; that cannot be denied. Clemency, even car riel to excess, produced feelings of admiration and grati tude. And when the King opened wide the doors of prisons we blessed the pardon, which did not tarry for repentance. Other Governments have published amnesties after spilling tor rents of blood. The Government of July did not so. It shed no blood on the scaffold, and pardoned men condemned, but not proscribed. France was moved to and delighted by this clemency, and abandoned itself to confidence and joy, know. ing that after an amnesty fresh troubles become impossible. In signing the amnesty the Ministry incurred a great risk. It is, therefore, the more entitled to the honour of success. The measure, too, was the fittest preliminary of the marriage, which was also M. Mole's work. For six years France had not seen such glorious days the King re-appearing in the midst of us, in the midst of his people, surrounded by his family, amidst the monuments he has raised at Fontainebleau and Versailles. The Ministry was wise in thus allowing the King to follow the dictates of his courage and noble confidence. It seemed as if liberty had been restored to all of us, and that the moment was come to believe in a future of security and happiness." There is no other news of any interest in the French journals of Sunday. Letters from Bayonne, of the 28th ult., announce the determination of Count De MIRASOL to take the field without delay. On the 22d ESPARTERO was at Logrono. THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. We stated yesterday that a Russian frigate had arrived at Gravesend, with a considerable quantity of gold on board. We now learn that the amount is about 400,0001., which was deposited at the Bank of England. It is also stated that more gold is exp Tied in a few days from other quarters, when the Bank of England will have in its possession about six millions of bullion. Although money was very scarce at the Stock Exchange during yesterday, Consols continued buoyant, owing to the important arrival from Russia of the large amount of gold. Commercial afnirs were also in a quiet state, and, upon the whole, had a better appearance. We have no tidings as yet of the arrival of the American packet of the Bth ult., which vas said to have been off Liver pool. Great anxiety is expressed for her arrival. TIIE FUNDS.

THE SUN, LONDON, TURSDAY, .1 tll, 1 4, 14:)7 List. About five weeks since a boat was picked up at sea, off the Portuguese coast, by a Spanish brig, containing ten of the crew of the Thetis, an English West India merchant ves sel, bound for Antigua, and of about 200 tons. It appears that, at the hour of three o'clock, A. rd., on the 16th of May, the Thetis struck either against a rock or the remains of a wreck, and a hole of about six feet was instantly made in her side. In 20 minutes from this time she filled and went down, leaving the crew just time to get into the long-boat without a compass, and naked. They had no provisions except a few b scuits and a gallon and a half of water. They were at this time within 70 miles of land, but unfortunately steered out to sea, and for nine days they remained in this state, three m en L e . ng employed during the whole time in baling out water. A lady and child, passengers (Mrs. Dean) were drowned, and the rust saved. COURT OF CHANCERY-THIS 17A1,. ' IN TITS MATTER OF LA HEMP, A LUNATIC. This case came before his Lordship upon the petition of Mr. Carpenter, the nephew of the lunatic's late wife, praying a reference to the Master for the purpose of ascertainitig whe ther himself or his father we..o lit persons to be appointed Committee of the person of the lunatic its the plate of the petl= Potter's late Wife. Air. La Heo,p Was found .t lunatic in February lElt I, and had Cofititititd to Up td the present TO merit. His daughter in 1831 attained her maprity, 1833 intermarried with the petitioner, who was her first cousin. Her mother, who had been appointed the Committee of the per son, died in July 1833, and upon her death it was referred to the Master to approve of a proper person to ba Committee. The Master, upon that reference by his report, approved of Mr. John Harper Powell, and the wif. , of the petitioner, to be the Committee. The petitioner continued to reside in the house of the lunatic after the appointment of his wife as Cona mitteo, and every thing relating to the lunatic was managed by him and his wife until her death Since that period the petitioner bad had the whole management of the lunatic, and no complaint whatever that he was aware of bed been made against him by Mr. Powell. Under these circumstances, the petitioner not being so connected by blood with the lunatic as to be able to propose himself for Committee without a special order, came to the Court for liberty to propose himself. The Somciroa•GINERAL, who appeared for the next of kin and Mr. Powell, observed that at the beginning of last year the petitioner had been discharged under the Insolvent Debtors Act, for debts, the most of which had been contracted by gambling. The cause of his insolvency was attributed to playing at skittles, and having been duped by others. The LORD CHANCELLOR said, that according to the admis sion of the petitioner himself, part of the money allowed for the maintenance of the lunatic had been spent in gambling, and that under such circumstances, if even the Master had ap proved of the Petitioner as one of the Committee, he would not have confirmed that report. The petition must, therefore, be dismissed with costs. COMMON PLEAS.-(THIS DAY.) illi% G.% ZINES. PRE ASIATIC JOURNAL. Allen and Co.

" Native Society in India," is the best bird's eye view of the social habits of the Indian population that we have yet met with. But it is far from perfect. We still want ac counts an hundred times more familiar ; and till these be supplied us, we can know nothing in reality of na tive life in India. The following extract discloses a dreadful view of the interior of society in India. The practice which it details is common, and crimes such as the one here disclosed, by no means unfrequent " The kidnappers usually select the children of very poor people as the objects of their pursuit, since the disappearance of such humble individuals does not excite so much alarm and inquiry as would follow upon the loss of those of more conse quence, who would be instantly traced with the facility afforded by wealth ; but these parties are exposed to another and a still greater danger. The children of wealthy persons, both male and female, are not unfrequently murdered for the sake of their ornaments, which are often of very considerable value. The wrists and ancles of the girls are, in many instances, encircled with bangles of the purest gold, while the boys are decorated with trinkets equally costly, necklaces and earrings, and an armlet sometimes set with precious stones. Thes; unfortu nates, if falling into the hands of evil-disposed people, are strangled and stripped, their bodies being thrust into wells, or thrown into rivers ; and, though not now of frequent occur rence, there is a third danger to which persons of tender years are exposed, that of being enticed away for sacrifice. A hor rible story of this nature is on record, which may be called a modern instance, since it occurred as late as the year 1821. A poor boy, aged fifteen, herding cattle in a field near a small village called Teleekel, about twelve miles from Sylhet, and close to the Jyntea frontier, was seized by three men, who attempted to gag him, having brought instruments with them for the purpose. The boy fortunately perceiving their hostile intention in time, raised an alarm, and his cries brought the people of the village to his assistance. They rescued him from the kidnappers, who were apprehended, and brought before the magistrate, and one of the number readily confessed the crime which he and his accomplices had meditated, accom panying this confession with details of the most revolting nature. He stated that he was by occupation a cultivator, and that he was cmbloyed by Oochung, Rungaut, Kooar, the brother-in law of Ram Singh, Rajah of Jyntea, to seize a man for the purpose of offering him up as a sacrifice at the shrine of the goddess Kalee. Upon being farther questioned, lie denied ever having executed a similar commission before, and excused his compliance with the orders he received, upon the plea that he dared not disobey the command, as he, being a subject of the Kooar, was bound to act according to his sovereign's man date. He admitted, that during the last ten years. an annual sacrifice of human victims had been offered to the blood-thirsty goddess, for the purpose of propitiating the deity, and blessing the marriage of the Kooar with the sister of the Rajah of Jyn tea, with offspring ; the sacrifices being continued during a period of four months. The victims selected for these horrid rites, according to the prisoner's statement, were not sacrificed publicly, although their immolation . was a matter of public notoriety. In describing the ceremonies performed upon these occasions, he informed his auditors, that the captive, being adorned with a garland of flowers, is compelled to sit down, the officiating priest completing the tragedy by severing the throat with the sacrificial knife. The wife of the Kooar was always present at these sacrifices, and is said to have bathed in the blood of the victims ; people being sent out in all direc tions to procure them from foreign territories, in order to afford her the opportunity of trying the effect of this fearful rite." " Glimpses of a Poet's Dream" is full of truth, freshness, and feeling. The " Familiar Analysis of Sanscrit Prosody," we mention here merely to di rect the attention of Oriental scholars, to whom it will prove of invaluable service. To 'other readers few of the remaining articles will prove of much interest. The notes of the month are as usual, very carefully con densed and arranged. GILES V. GREEN AND OTHERS. This was an order from the Commissioners of Bankruptcy to try whether an assignment of five barges had been made to the plaintiff prior to an act of bankruptcy which took place in the year 1835. The case was of no public interest, except to the parties concerned. CRIMINAL COURT-(THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. James Mallett, 30, was indicted for receiving a vast quan tity of shoes, well knowing them to hare been stolen. On the 6th of February, 1836, police constable K 1, saw the prisoner accompanying a man named James Sims, who had a hamper on his head. He stopped them, but the prisoner got away. Sims was tried and convicted of robbing Mr. Elmes ley, a wholesale shoemaker, with whom the prisoner was a servant. The policeman had a good view of the prisoner, and has been on the look-out for him ever since. He met with him in Billingsgate, and took him into custody. A sister of Sims proved that the prisoner was often in com pany with her brother. They often brought home a hamper of shoes, which were taken away in a few days. The policeman said the man who ran away was the prisoner, and had a great coat on. Julia Sims said that, on the evening of the 6th February, 1836, the prisoner came to their house and told them her brother was in custody. That he would go home and put off his great-coat and watch, and then go out and see how he had got on. A nurse to his wife proved that he did on that night come home and leave his great-coat and watch, and go out again immediately. • - The prisoner denied all knowledge of the transaction, and said the charge had been trumped up. Mr. Elmesley, who was called upon by the prisoner to give him a character, said he had put great confidence in him, until he knew he had been transported. The Jury found him guilty. In answer to the Learned Judge, the prisoner said he was transported for carrying a gun about 7 o'clock in the morning. William Hollis and Caroline Hollis were indicted for high way robbery. Michael Howe deposed that be came up from Gloucester shire for work. On the 20th June he was at the Standard, near Uxbridge, in company with the prisoners ; he had then three sovereigns and a half-sovereign in his pocket. In the public-house he wrapped the money in a piece of paper, and put it in his watch. pocket. When they left the man jostled him, and he found the young woman': hand in his pocket. They afterwards went to another public-house, where he said to the woman that she had his money. The man im mediately struck him. They afterwards went together to Uxbridge, where he gave information to the constable. George Bradenbury, the hostler, saw the prisoners and the last witness in his master's house the Standard. He saw some money with the prosecutor, but how much he did not know. The prosecutor was drunk, and he saw some hustling when they left. James Johnson, keeper of the Green Man, said the priso ners and prosecutor came to his house. The prosecutor's watch pocket was hanging out. He spent all his money and then accused the prisoners of robbing him, when the male pri soner abused him. _ _ ....... Charles James Murray, a constablo was called to the Green Man. The prosecutor said he had been robbed, and he took the male prisoner into custody. Nothing was found on him. The woman was taken afterwards, but no money was found upon her except 3s. The prisoners said they met the prosecutor about two o'clock in the morning ; the prisoner asked him where he came from, and on being told Gloucestershire, he said that was his country, and proposed having something to drink. They went to the Standard and did not leave till the landlord would not serve any more liquor. They then went to the Green Man, where the prosecutor proposed that they should go poaching, and showed him the gins for the purpose. They did not believe he had any such money as was alleged, for he said he would soon have some from the poaching. They had not seen any of his money but that which he spent. The Judge said it was a case of much doubt, and one pecu liarly for the consideration of a Jury. The Jury almost immediately returned a verdict of Not Guilty. NEW COURT. Charles Rutland, 19, was indicted for stealing on the 15th of June two shillings of Mr. Blencowe, his master. It ap peared that the prisoner's employer, a baker, had at various times small sums of money taken from his till, and for the purpose of detecting the thief, he marked some shillings which he left at night in the shop on 29th May. None of them were missed for a fortnight, but at length when the prisoner was settling his accounts for bread which he had sold to cus tomers, the money made its appearance. When charged with the theft, he said " he never thought of it till a month before, and begged that his master would not expose him. On search his trunk there were fouud 231. in gold and some silver, with a gold watch which he could not account for.—Guilty. John Barnet, alias Solonions, 26, a hatter, was indicted for stealing on the 21st of June, in the parish of Saint George's in the East. 40 yards of muslin and other articles, the property of Thomas Fardell. It appeared that the prosecutor's cart was in Leadenhall -street, with three large parcels, about seven o'clock in the evening on the day in question. The man who had charge of them was walking alongside the horses, and there was also another man walking after the waggon to protect the parcels. The prisoner deliberately jumped on the shaft, and laid hold of one of the parcels with which he ran away. A cry of " stop thief" was instantly raised, and the prisoner showed chase for upwards of three quarters of a mile, through lanes and alleys, but was overtaken in the Commer cial-road.—Guilty. The prisoner was convicted on two former occasions. The Learned SERGEANT said it was useless to try gentle means with the prisoner, and the sentence of the Court was that he be transported beyond the seas for the term of 14 years.

She was expected in port the next tide. The supply of potatoes, peas, strawberries, and vegetables generally, in Covent -garden market on Satur day, was very great, but so extraordinary was the demand that prices were in a trifling degree higher than in the middle of the week. Some uncommonly fine peaohes, and a few bas kets of beautiful cherries, excited general notice. The flower garden, which is usually well supplied at this season of the year, was particularly luxuriant on Saturday. Sixpence was the price of a bunch of moss roses, consisting of nearly a dozen distinct stalks. - rug, MONTHLY MAGAZINE. There are several amusing articles in this Number, though none of superior excellence. Among them we may mention the " City Sketches," and the " Plea sures of Meat, Suppers," the leading idea of which however is borrowed from an article entitled the " Un bidden Guest," which appeared a year or two since in the pages of I3lackwood's Magazine. The " Wan dering Jew's Tale" is a reqectable specimen of versification. UNITED SERVICE JOURNAL. Henry CoMum " The Standing Army of Great Britain in Ancient and Modern Times," forms the subject of the first, and by far the most interesting article in the July Number of the United Service Journal. Its object is to convince Reformers of the necessity of keeping up a large standing army in time of peace—a proposition which even this article will not render self-evident to those who have paid the greatest attention to this subject. We admit, however, that the writer has gone a great way in the removal of prejudices engendered by ignorance, and that his observations will well re pay the trouble of a careful perusal. The " Biogra phy of Captain Dampier" is become rather a stale subject. The most voracious devourers of naval adven tures, will find abundance to sate their appetite in the memoirs written of him by Kippis, Southey, and Camp bell. The " Colonization of the Eastern Archipelago," is an article to which we invite the attention not only of the Government, but of the Members of both Houses of Parliament. In such a scheme there is certainly nothing which appears to us of a decidedly impracticable character. An article on the " Condition of Lieutenants of the Royal Navy" is fraught with hints which might be turned to good account by the Lords of the Admiralty. The above articles are not less interesting to the officers of the two services, though they have little to recommend them to the public generally. The Number, taken as a whole, is a good one. MONTHLY REPOSITORY. This Journal is henceforth to be under the manage ment of Leigh Hunt, which is a guarantee to the public that it will be worth reading. The present Number is an improvement on its predecessors, but it will be better next month,•as the arrangements, we are informed, are not yet completed. The best article is a continuation of the Editor's well-known " Feast of the Poets," and is entitled " The Feast of the Violets" — that is, of the Blue-stockings. If anything could re concile us to supping with a party of Blues, Mr. Hunt's poem would have that effect, but we are not to be reconciled to such a visitation ; but hold with Hazlitt, that a chit-chat with a party of " pretty, red armed dairy-maids" would be far more agreeable—not to say instructive. We shall discuss the " Repository" more at length next month. THE LONDO P N HI CAL AND EDINBURG MAGAZINE.H PHILOSO- B. and J. E. Taylor, Red Lion-court. There is in the present Number of this excellent periodical an abundant supply of matter suited to the taste of the g eneral reader as well as to that of the votary of science in its more abstract form. " Mr. R. C. Taylor's Notes relative to the Geology of Cuba" arc exceedingly interesting. Mr. T. is, we believe, the first geologist who has explored any portion of that island, and the report which he has furnished shews that Cuba is not deficient in mineral treasures.

COAL HOLE TAVERN, STRAND.—This old esta blished and highly respectable place of public amusement con tinues to draw from all quarters. It is crowded every night, by Noblemen and Gentlemen, who, we need hardly say, evince the highest gratification from the well con d ucte d an d un ri l vaned convivial meetings. The singing ;e, as it has been, of the first order. The wines and spirits are of the choicest quality. - - The first journey on the London and Birmingham!' Railroad was made on Thursday afternoon, when the directors, accompanied by the engineer, the architect, and three of the; non-resident directors from Liverpool, started from the station' at Euston-square with a locomotive engine and a train of car riages, and proceeded to Boxmoor, near Hemel Hempstead, being a distance of twenty-five miles from town. We consider i , this as an event of so much importance in the progress of our., civilization, and as giving such an accelerated impulse to Oc t march of social improvement and the increase of our national. wealth, by the facility and rapidity of communication which its! affords, that we are glad to have been furnished with somei particulars of the journey. The train started from the station . between one and two o'clock , and as it was intended to be trial of the carriages, and in some sort a tour of inspection on the part of the directors, the engine was not forced to great ., speed on the road from London. The tunnel under Primrose-,,, hill, which is three quarters of a mile long , was passed through: in a minute and fifty se cond s on departing from town, but in._ r eturning it was passed in a minute and a half. When it W'! . , recollected that the late Mr. Rennie, who was, perhaps, the 7 A most eminent engineer of his day, failed in makingi a tunnel through Highgate-hill, owing to the difficulties he had to con-1 tend with, some idea may be formed of the improvement which ',.;',4 lists taken place in modern engineering, and the genius and re-. 1 sources of Mr. Robert Stephenson, the engineer of this rai4 road, who had the like difficulties to overcome at Primrose-a hill. The train stopped at Watford in going and returning,4 and remained for half an hour at Boxmoor. In coming back l e they travelled at the rate of thirty miles an hour along a con- N siderable portion of the line ; so that little more than half an , hour will be, w e i mag i ne , t h e ti me re quired to go to Watford.'`'!, Tbi rail road is a stupendous undertaking, and does vast,6, credit to the talents of the engineer.
