We unden,tand that Mr. KINGSCOTE has gone down to Glo.acestershirL! to canvass tho Electors. In the Chronic le of this morning appears a letter from Lord BllouG [IA m, disavowing, in the most direct and explicit terms, all knOwledr;c of the article con tained in the Advertiser of Thursday last ; en which our Contetuporary observes,. " none more than our -.!lves can rejoice to find that Load BROUGHAM Will not devote his splendid talcnts further the efforts and plans of tho:ia who are opPosed to the great prin c;pics of reform." It is rather late in the clay for the Mnrning Chromide to find out and rejoice in the discovery, that Lotd BranTGHAm will not further the plans of the Tories. Surely our contemporary cannot have fer,;otten the last Session—that memorable Session whti Lord L'lto UG II AAI was the chief spokesthan of the Liberal party ; the chief—indeed we might almost say the sole —prop of Ministers, ht .the House of Lords What would have become of them, if it had not been for his exertions ? With the exception of Lord MELBOURNE, scarce a Member of the Cabinet made himself conspicuous by his energy. On Lord BnouGliAm alone devolved the task of carrying a Whig Government successfully through one of the most arduous ordeals it has ever been subjected to. Whenever a knotty point was to be solved, there was he to solve it. Whenever a Tory sophis try was to be pointed out, there was he to ex pose it. Throughout the Session, he was in the van of the battle ; the first to entcr the field, the last to quit it. - Our contemporary is far too quick-witted not to see and appreciate the full value of his Lord ship's assistance ; yet this is the way in which on Sa turday last lie thought fit to speak of him !—" There are, in every body of men united for political objects, dissatisfied individuals, from various causes, but most frequently from disappointed ambition. These indivi duals seldom dare abandon openly the cause they have advocated, but they seek by cabal and machination to impede its success. In a late number of the Edinburgh Review,appearedan article dictated by one of these dis contented spirits, with the obvious design of destroy.= ink though the professed object of the writer was to support them. The article was clever, and abounded in what may be called left-handed wisdom ; but still the cloven foot was visible. The spirit that dictated that article is still at work, and Proteus himself never assumed more shapes. In every vehicle for conveying information the agency of that spirit may be traced—the Review, the Daily and Weekly Newspaper, the Lecture." If this do not betray an animus---an earnest desire to prove Lord BROUGHAM in the wrong, and to injure him in the estimation of all conscientious Reformers, we know not what does. Had he been the rankest of renegades, he could not have' been more cavalierly treated. Because an obnoiious article appears in the Edinburgh Review, our contemporary is in breathless haste to attribute it to Lord BROUGHAM 1 Because another of the same character appears in the Morning Advertiser, our contemporary pounces upon it with equal haste, in the full conviction that it must be his Lordship's composition I And these injurious in. sinuations are levelled against a man, to whom the cause of general RefOrm owes more, than to any human being in existence ; and, what is worse, they are put forth at the very moment when union—strict union—a sinking of all minor differences, and a gene rous oblivion of all trivial misunderstandings, are in dispensably requisite ! Did we not know from long experience, that our contemporary is a Reformer of the true stamp, though apt occasionally to be a little . wrong. headed, we should be strongly tempted to say ''that he, not Lord BROUGHAM, is showing the L" cloven foot" on this occasion, and has the natural horror of his Lordship's sincerity which is common to all doubtful politicians. Suppose the Ministry, by a back stair intrigue, similar to that which ejected them last year, were to be again dismissed, who would be more zealous in his denunciation of such intrigue than the Morning Chronicle? Yet is he not now doing all he can to forward it, by his attempts to sow distrust among the Reformers ? Does he imagine that they are so strong as to be able to stand with out Lord BROUGHAM'S assistance? Why, we much question whether they would survive the first week of the session without it ! Who but himself could stand up against the sophistry of a LYND HURST ? Who could bear down the bluster of a PHILLPOTTS, .or show the utter fatuity of a WlCKLOW—clever and successful enough in his arguments when no BROUGHAM is present to expose them ? We hazard these few remarks, not because we are advocates of Lord BROUGHAM, but because ore are lovers of fair play ; and more especially because we see that every thing now depends on union among the Reformers. 'Without union there can be no hope for us in the stormy Session that is approaching. Eloquence sarcasm argument—energy—these are all very well in their way, but union among the Liberals is worth them all put together. How deplorable, then, to see the party daily splitting into sects and schisms ; one Liberal Journal endeavouring to disgust its readers with O'CONNELL ; and another with Lord BROUGHAM, yet both fancying that they are furthering the cause of Reform in the most efficient manner possible ! Advices from Madrid to the 6th instant have lieen received. They are extremely favourable to the Con stitutional cause. The President of the Council, M. MENDIZABAL appears to have succeeded in appeas ing the fury of the more violent partisans of the late Cabinet Ministers, and to have convinced the political chiefs on all sides, that he aims not at the exercise of power longer than he can contribute to the deliverance of his country, and the restoration of her Consititu tional freedom. By this display of dignified, honest, patriotism he has silenced the factions, and awakened to a sense of public duty those Deputies who had not consented to move in the wake of some leading demagogue. It will be seen from a letter from Madrid, which is given in another part of The Sun, that the Procura dores are preparing to make some changes in the project of Electoral law prepared by the Committee, and presented to the Chamber by the President of the Council. These changes are in the most perfect accordance with the principle of the proposed law—their only effect being to give a further extension to the suffrage so as to include a greater number of voters. There are reports in these journals of some daring deeds which the Carlists are performing before St. Sebastian. Several women and children have fallen victims to their zeal in defence of the Usurper. The garrison was not more than six hundred strong, and even suspicions were !entertained of the fidelity of the commander. DON CARLOS was personally before the town on the 3d instant, accompanied by his ne phew DON SEBASTIAN. The Paris Papers of Friday and Saturday have all been received. Their contents are even less important than they were during the whole of last week ; as the Amerinn indemnity question is now worn threadbare, and the proceedings of the Court of Peers are, even 93 a judicial mockery, too dull, tame, and insignificant to merit the slightest notice. The Algerine expedi tion is too characteristic of the warlike genius of LOUIS PHILLIPPE to astonish the inhabitants of either Europe or Africa. A rumour noticed by the Temps, of the threatened retirement of the Duke de BROGLIE from the - Cabinet, and the chance of his being succeeded in the Presidency of the Council by Tnirns, is equally below comment. We have -to thank our own Government for a regu lation, by which English newspapers are henceforth to be admitted info, and circulated through Spain, without trouble• or expense of any kind more than at tends the receipt of Spanish journals in London. Regard only is to be had to the manner of folding; and no journal is to be written upon, or otherwise made the medium of conveying private personal intelligence. This measure will have a considerable effect upon the state of public opinion in every part of Spain. The .reading portion of the Spanish people will thus ac quire a correct knowledge of the working of our po litical system, and of the contrail' which the national mind and will exercise over the legislative and execu tive Government of the country. PARIS, DEC. 12.—A letter from Brest of the Bth De cember, says :—" Orders have arrived at Brest, definitively to put on the war establishment the two ships of the line, the Sante-Petre, and the Jena. In consequence, a new levy of seamen is ordered. We now expect in this port 3,000 sailors. " Twenty permanent companies are now forming for the division of the crews of ships of the line in this port. " greatest activity begins to prevail in all branches of the service." It was intended to make a great promotion in the navy on the Ist July, 1836, and the list of promotions was to be pre sented to the King for his sanction, at the latter end of De cember. But we are new assured that the King, anticipating the intentions of the Minister of Marine has expressed a desire not to sign the intended list of promotions, unless \van with the United States should render the proposed promotion more interesting to a great number of young naval officers. In the embarrassing situation in which we are placed with respect to the United States, we cannot but approve of this reserve, and of the motive which has in duced the Government to defer the promotion intended by the Minister of Marine.—Journal du Havre. A letter from Toulon, dated 7th December, says : " The naval armements are continued with unabated activity. The Galatkie will be ready to put to sea on the Ist of Ja nuary ; the Trident, of the line, will be completely ready by the end of the same month. A considerable number of workmen has been sent on board those vessels to accelerate the operations." Letters from Nice say that our • last mail had brought letters from Sardinia, which make no mention whatever of the revolution in that island. It seems the Sardinian po lice bad taken good care to prevent any such communica tion. The naval armaments at Genoa were continued with great -activity. The Journal of Geneva of the Bth says—" That Ge neral Roten, of "the Valais, who greatly distinguished him self in Spain during the war in 1823, has been sent for by Mina. He passed through Geneva the day before yes terday on his way to Barcelona."—Mcssager, Dec. 12. FRENCH FUNDS.--PARIS, DECEMBER 11. Five per Cents., )OSf. 1071. 95c. 90e. 95c. 108 f.

The freedom of the City of Edinburgh was pre sented, on Tuesday last, to those illustrious Polish patriots Prince CZARTORYSKI and the gallant young Count ZAMOYSKI, his nephew. Both expressed a high sense of the honour conferred on them, in an ani mated speech, in which they expressed their firm con viction that Poland would again be restored _to her ancient independence. We hope so too, though what with lukewarm friends on the one hand, and powerful enemies on the other, we fear there is at present but a slender chance of such a desirable consummation. The extraordinary Supplement to tile Allgenzeine Zeitung of the Bth inst. contains an article fabricated by command of his Excellency the Chancellor of Russia, in the form of a " letter from the Rhine," commenting upon the strictures of the Liberal Press of Great Britain and France on the speech delivered by the Imperial MUSCOVITE to the Municipality of Warsaw. The writer, or his employer rather, has tact enough to perceive the necessity of appearing un connected with the Cabinet of St. Petersburgh ; bu with all his sophistry he cannot conceal from us the fact of his being no more than the tool of the AUTO- CRAT. It were as well if the CZAR suffered his celebrated speech to be forgotten. There are more things than Squire Sancho wot of, which become the more unsavoury the more they are stirred. The speech. of the CZAR is one of these. To prove this we shall make a few extracts from this explanatory article. As a whole its insertion would only encumber our colunms. Mark the following : " But this bitterly censured speech pronounces with sin cerity and truth a dreadful necessity. It is a hard and cruel truth, which cannot be controverted ; but does -it arise from the will of man, or from a necessity from which the will of man is not answerable ? A free Poland, not co-equal with, but under Russia, subject to the Sovereign of Russia! A conquered people that have to enjoy liberal institutions, united with the victorious State which recog nises the will of its Emperor as the supreme law, and can not pretend to such institutions without high treason ! And these institutions, and the Constitution that is to secure them, placed under the guarantee of a Monarch, who, ab solute in his own country, is to govern a divided, conquered, country on principles which do not apply to the conquer ing—the ruling people. State policy, which attempted to unite what was most incompatible—which Combined what was most dissimilar, has to answer for this contradiction, this necessary conflict, and all the evils that have arisen or may yet arise from it. If you put the wolf and the lamb together, you must not wonder if the latter become the victim ; as the old fable even tells you how the, lamb at the lower part of the stream, troubled the water that the wolf drank above. But Russia, to which this comparison does not apply, has done nothing to Poland but what the stronger that meets with the weaker always has done—as long' as there have been nations and states—and still does. Is the doctrine so new, that it takes your wisdom by suprise ?" The above is what our Tory Contemporary, the Post, calls " a clear and forcible specimen of controversial composition." Now we ask, supposing all that is here put forth to be correct, was not the main fact which it embodies known to NICHOLAS when he swore to maintain the Constitution of Poland? Did he not know the impossibility .which is here stated, and knowing it, was he not guilty of the crime of wilful sacrilegious perjury when he accepted the Crown of Poland, on conditions which he knew he could not observe ? Either NICHOLAS knew that Poland could not enjoy her Constitution, or he did not. If he knew that she could not enjoy it under his sway; then was he guilty of a solemn deliberate act of perjury, when he swore to maintain, and received the Crown on that condition. If he knew not of the existence of the State necessity which must inevitably deprive Po land of. her Constitution during her forced connection, with Russia, then is he guilty of wilful and delibe rate perjury during every instant he retains the Clown of Poland, after finding that he cannot com ply with the conditions upon which he re ceived it. In either case the conduct of the CZA R is nearly the. same ; and to the " writer from the Rhine" we leave the task of extricating him from -between the horns of this dilemma. But the assumption in the above paragraph is a qualified falsehood. There is nothing at all impossible, or even surprising, in the fact of an absolute Sove reign being likewise the constitutional 'KING of a free people. We question if there be a monarch in Europe possessing colonial territory, whose regal powers are the same throughout his dominions. The King of ENGLAND is a very different functionary from the King of HANovER ; and even our Government acts under the mediation of those Saints in Malta whom it de- nounces as of Papal creation in London. The following gives us no very high opinion of NN'riter's sagacity : " The speech of the Emperor, considered as ti n orato cal exercise or a diplomatic device, is liable to much criti cism ; but for that very reason I commend it. Those in whose eyes polished manners, political finesse, and Govern ment acts are above everything may believe, with a cele brated statesmen, that language was given to man to con ceal his faults. What does the Emperor say ? " You wished to see me, Gentlemen ; well, then I receive you. You have wished to make a speech to me ; but, to spare you a lie, I would not have this speech addressed to rne, JO: I know that your sentiments are not suchTas you would make me believe.' Was that not the case ?-• Do not those who blame the Emperor esteem the Poles for the very sen timents which they, as well as the Emperor, suppose them to entertain. Is it otherwise ? Can it be otherwise ? Or was it wished to bear lies—lies which in such cases are spoken with barefaced levity, or as a mere form of civility ? So the suppositions of the English and French Jour nals with respect to the state of public feeling in War saw is confirmed. The citadel is really required to keep the inhabitants in a state of subordination. This is important, and we shall not lose sight of it. Now, the Municipality of Warsaw is wholly composed of the creatures of the Russian Government, and yet so in tense is the hatred of the people of Poland against the CZAR, that even these functionaries partAe of it to such a degree as to be unworthy of credit, when com plimenting the AUTOCRAT on his presence among them. If such be the state of Polish feeling among the functionaries of the Capital, what must it not be among the oppressed Poles in the provinces ? Mark the two-fold threat contained in the following passage t " The territory of Poland was fixed by its geographical position by the neighboured of the great Powers that sur round. It was doomed to be the Ireland of Rusiia. If we had wished to hinder this we should have thought of it before. It is probably now too late, and even Constanti nople may share the fate of Warsaw. Poland is not yet depressed so low as Ireland, but it inay come to this if the promises of foreigners of the splendid prospects which they hold out in high-sounding speeches and articles should make an impression on the generous sons of that unhappy country." -The territory of Poland was fixed by its geogra phical position to be the barrier of Russia ; to check her rapacious encroachments ; and to keep her savage hordes within their natural limits. But what means this threat against Constantinople ? What could have • suggested to the mind of the writer the idea of con iyieeting the fate of the capital of the Ottoman empire wi ith that of unhappy Poland ? This was not done ina -dvertently, and it behoves England and France to enqur;re into the cause of it. Is there indeed an ar mamei.,it preparing in Russia which is designed to sack the city of Constantinople ? Such an•announcement would not surprise us.- It would only be a just judg ment on Englim:4l and France, for tacitly suffering the Russian Imperial 8a , vage to tear to pieces, and scatter to the four winds of Heaven, the Constitution guaranteed by them to the brave, but betrayed people of Poland. • : ;5, , .•••••••.••••• ,, M11 Arrivals tins morning iroin Lisbon, announce the terrianatioß of the treaty Qf marriage between Her Most Faithful Majesty DONNA MARIA, Queen of Portugal, and' HiS Serene Highness Prince FERDI NAND-AUGUSTUS of Saxe Coburg. The contract for the marriage was signed - by the representatives of her Majesty and the young Prince at Coburg, on the 7th of December, and the marriage will be celebrated by proxy, as soon as the intelligence can be officially communicated to the Court of Lisbon. The PRINCE himself will sail for Portugal, with as little delay as possible ; and it is hoped that the termination of this affair, will tend to extinguish the spirit of intrigue now manifested in every act of the Portuguese Go vernment. Mr. O'CONNELL has addressed a letter to Dr. ARTHUR JAMES BEAUMONT, in reply to one sent to him from Paris, from the prisoners confined in St. Pelagie, requesting him to become their advocate on their approaching trial, which he declines, in consequence of his inability to address the Court in French with the requisite fluency. In this letter Mr. O'CONNELL denies that he is at all favourable to a republic in France, and observes,—" You have no adequate representation—no sufficient cheek to the avarice of your deputies—no reasonable protection for your personal safety, and your properties are at the mercy of a majority of your Legislature, which majo rity is actually in the pay of vour hard-hearted Ruler. Your Press is bound in fetters of steel, and Frenchmen are insulted by that atrocious libel law, which directly and in terms violates the charter, and tells you that you are too worthless to be alloWed to listen to the truth. It is quite true that the French are the slaves of him who ought to be their servant—but still I am convinced that a Republic is not the remedy. The territory of France must be distributed into federal Rtatcs before it could form a peaceable and parental Republic. Liberty now requires the localization of power, not its centralization—besides, allow me to say that there is not in France enough of political know ledge, or enough of political morals, or enough, above all, of religion for a Republic. Believe me, that the sole, safe basis of a great Republic can be found only in the deepest sense of accountability for an eternity of weal or of woe, which religion alone can inculcate and preserve."

There were considerable arrivals of all kinds of grain last week, and a large return of Flour, and the trade throughout the week was very dull. This evening the fresh supplies of all kinds of grain were moderate, and the attendance of buyers was tolerably good, but they purchased very can • tiously. Superfine samples of Wheat obtained last week's prices, but all other qualities met a very dull sale, at Is. per quarter reduction from last quotations. Barley is so plentiful that the factors were obliged to submit to a reduction of 2s. per qr. to effect sales. Beans and Pease remain as last quoted with a slack sale. Oats arc not so abundant as other Grain, and the prices remain as last week with a dull sale. In the Flour trade we note continued dullness at former prices. raiers ON BOARD OF SKIP.

O'CALLAGHAN His Honour the VICE-CHANCELLOR gave judgment in this case, in which the question was whether a lady who by her marriage settlement had a provision made for her and her children, was entitled to that provision, her husband dying without children, and she having married again. His Honour was of opinion the lady was entitled, and decreed accordingly. KING'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.) TAYLOR V. DAVY AND ANOTHER. This was ar action of trespass, brought to try the right of the parish authorities of St. Bride's,- to pass through the premises of Mr. Richard Taylor, a printer, situate between Red Lion court, and Crane-court, in their triennial perambulations of the parish boundaries. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL (with whom was Mr. Barstow and Mr. White) appeared for the defendants, and the onus probandi being with him, stated the case. They were all aware of the great importance in this country that the bounda ries of parishes should be well ascertained. Very important rights of property depended upon it, and where disputes occur red much litigation and injurious consequences ensued. For the purpose of ascertaining these boundaries, from time imme morial there had been periodical processions, or perambula tions, and in Popish times these . processions were accompanied by certain superstitious ceremonies which are now laid aside. The custom of perambulating, however, still prevails ; in some it was done annually, in others every three years, and in others every five years.' In the parish of Saint Bride's the custom was to go the bounds every three years. There was no question in point of law that the parish authorities had the right to perambulate, and the line was the extreme boundaries ; but occasionally there were obstacles, such as the erection of a house upon the bounds, which rendered it necessary to pass through the house. Wherever the procession has gone from time immemorial there it had a right to go. The Learned Counsel then detailed the course of the procession as it afterwardS appeared in evidence, and he would show that no obstacle had been presented so far as the memory of man went, up to the time when the plaintiff objected in 1833. The vestry-clerk having been informed that the plaintiff intended to resist the passing of the proces sion through his premises, wrote to him on the ! sth May, 1833, the day before that fixed for the perambulation, appris ing him that according to ancient custom they would pass through his premised. In reply the vestry-clerk received a letter from the plaintiff's solicitors, stating that if the proces sion passed through she plaintiff's house, he was advised by high legal authority ( Sir J. Scarlett) that it was a trespass, and he should take proceedings against the authorities. It was to try the question whether on Holy Thursday every third year the parish authorities had been accustomed to pass through these premises or not, that the present action was brought. He would be able to satisfy the Jury that such was the case, and it was for his learned friend ( Mr. Cresswell) to show that, any ob struction had been given, or any leave had ever been asked by the parish authorities. After citing some authorities in support of the defendant's right as resting upon Immemorial custom, the following witnesses were called:— Joseph Stephens—l am seventy-eight years old, and was for twenty years Master of St. Bride's Charity School. I accom panied the procession every time they perambulated the parish, which was every three years. I took the boys with me, and never missed going with the procession. We went from Pem berton-row to Redlion-court, and then through the house which was occupied by Mr. Taylor. I used to take about six of the boys through the house, as the parish of advised me not to take too many through a gentleman's house. We went into a yard in Mr. Taylor's house, and in a corner in the basement story was a stone which formed the bounds of the parish, which the boys used to beat. The procession then passed out to Crane-court, and through the Scottish hospital. Richard Edwards—l know the plaintiff's premises. They were formerly occupied by my father, who is dead. He sold them to the plaintiff about ten years ago. The procession ' always passed through my father's house, and thence into Crane-court. This occurred from my earliest recollection, and I never knew of any obstruction being offered. Alexander Johnston, beadle of St. Bride's parish—l was appointed in the year .1821,.and went round in the year 1824 with the procession. We went through the back entrance of Mr. Edwards' house, and out at the front door in Crane court. There was no objection made by the owners or occu piers of the house. In 1827 I also accompanied the proces sion. There was no obstruction then, and we passed as usual through the house. In 1830, when we came to the back door, some altercation took place, but ultimately some of the procession went through the house. An alteration,had been made in the premises since 1827. In 1833 I accompanied the procession which went through the house, but only some of the children passed through. There was some obstruction offered by the plaintiff. The number of housekeepers or rate payers in the parish is about 600. The population is 7,000. Peter Jackson resides in the parish, and was churchwarden about the year 1818. Recollects accompanying the proces sion two or three times. Was overseer about ten years be fore lie was churchwarden, and at that time the procession went through Mr. Edwards' house. Two or three other witnesses gave gave similar evidence. Mr. CRESSWELL (with whom was:Mr. Watson), addressed the jury for the plaintiff. His Learned Friend had alluded to the sup ; ?rstitious customs which formerly prevailed ; but he believed some equally absurd still existed, and which were practised not many years ago. It was then the custom to seize upon the persons of passers-by, and bump them against the boundary stones—( A laugh)—for the purpose of impressing the circumstance upon the minds of the boys. One person, who had been actually so treated, brought an action for as sault and battery against the parish authorities, which was tried before Lord Tenterden, and it was seriously defended by counsel as authorized " by ancient and laudable custom."— (A laugh.) It brought down upon the defendants, and even the counsel employed by them, the severe censure of the Learned Judge, who had observed that it was " a custom honoured more in the breach than the observance."— (Loud laughter.) That custom had properly been done away with, and he trusted the present, which was a nuisance to the plaintiff, without conferring any benefit upon the parish would, by the verdict of the Jury be done away with. There was no proof that the passage through the plaintiff's house was the actual boundary line of the parish—no record or parish book to show that such was the ancient right, although the witnesses had proved that such was the custom. But that might have been matter of licence by the occupier, and gave no right to the present defendants. Under all the circum stances, he trusted the Jury would find that the defendants were not authorised in their trespass upon Mr. Taylor's pre mises, and that they would find a verdict for the plaintiff. Lord DENMAN summed up - at - great length, and the Jury, after consulting together for about twenty minutes, returned a verdict for the defendants, thus establishing the right of the parish authorities to pass through the plaintiff's house. EXCHEQUER COURT.--(THIS DAY.) _ CORTAZZI V. ARCHBOLD. This was an action brought for the recovery of a sum of 161. 10s., under the following circumstances : The defendant held the lease of the house, No. 22, Bruns wick-square, from a Mr. Clerk, at a rent of 1361. 10s. per annum. In 1532 he left it, and employed a house agent to get a tenant for the remainder of his lease. The agent could not get a better offer than that made by the plaintiff, which was 1301. per annum, and it was accordingly accepted, the de fendant covenanting to hold the plaintiff harmless as to the claim of the superior landlord. When the first quarter's rent became due, the superior landlord called upon the plaintiff for the rent, and was offered at the rate of 1301., which he refused, and also to go to defendant for the balance. He was paid the whole of his claim, and Mr. Freeman repaid plaintiff. Subsequent quarters became due, which were paid in the same manner, but the defendant was never to be, seen, and the action was now brought to recover the amount so overpaid by the plaintiff. Mr. EaLE, who stated the case, then called Mr. Freeman, when Mr. KELLY, who was Counsel for the defendants, conferred with Mr. Erie, and a verdict was taken for the plaintiff, without further trouble. DESPERATE GANG OF ARMED THIEVES, — The neighbourhood of Henham, Broxted, Widdington Eiston, and the adjoining parishes, have been for some time infested by a lawless gang, who have in the most daring manner plundered the farmers of sheep, poultry, &c., and the nocturnal depredations have of late become so frequent that the farmers have been compelled to sit up at night with assistants, as the only means of protecting their property. On Saturday night last, a party of eight men, six of whom had guns and the other two bludgeons, went to Henham, Broom Farm, in the occupation of Mr. Joshua Markwell, between ten and. eleven o'clock at night, with intent, it is supposed, to steal his turkies, which are said to be the finest in the country. Mr. Markwell, however, hoaring of their intended visit, obtained assistance, and followed them into a pasture next his house. A rencontre here took place, in the course of which a person named Robinson, a carpenter, attacked one of the gang, who was armed, felled him to the ground by a severe blow on the eye, and t 1 iiiThi him, took him into custody. Another - of the party was also secured. The others for the present have escaped.—Sujolit Gazette. SUPPOSED MURDER.—==A man named Ceorge Rus sell, a workman in the employ of Mr. Marston; a plumber and glacier at Birmingham, met his death last week in the following shocking manner :—Russell was at the Coach and Horses public-house, in Snowhill, Birmingham, in com pany with several other iietstlnt, and amongst the rest was a " tramp' in the same line of business as Russell, who, in the course of conVertatietn said that he was not only a plumber and glazier, but likewise a paper brirti, This led Russell to observe that is was singular for a person to fnli , low two such distinct Occupations, and mutual jeering oc curred, but no personal quarrel. The tramp quitted the house about a quarter to nine o'clock, and Russell ten or fifteen minutes afterwards. About ten o'clock Russell was found in a state of insensibility on the Hagley-road, which is not in the direction of his own house. His head was dreadfully fractured, and his side and other parts of his body much bruised. His pockets were also found turned inside out, and destitute of money. An inquest was held on the body, which adjourned to Wednesday next. The tramp was seen on the following morning between Birmingham and Wolverhampton. COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL, A Court of Common Council was held this morning, for the despatch of general business. The Lord Mayor took the chair at Twelve o'clock, when Mr. Alderman `Noon said, he hoped the Court would allow him to take that opportunity for returning his most warm and sincere thanks fir the high honour. they had conferred upon him, in electing him in such a handsome manner to the office of Governor of the Irish Society. Had the Go vernment of the country, or any other body, or h,d even that Corporation conferred upon him a place of any considerable emolument, he would not have so highly esteemed it, as he did the office to which he had been appointed. Ile had been (he really forgot for how many .years) connected with that Court, but he believed it was, upwards of 30 years, and he had always been treated with the most kind indulgence sometimes, indeed, they had found fault with him when they found he was not, in some of the matters of the Corporation , doing what they considered to be exactly his duty, but it was now most consoling to him to receive such a compliment from the Court, and he trusted that it would act as an incitement to him to do all in his power for their benefit, and he would assure them that he would not allow either pleasure or business to interrupt him in the discharge of his duties as Governor. Some objections had been made to him as a can didate for the office, on the ground of his filling the office of Prime Warden of the Fishmongers' Company. It was feared by some that his being so might operate against the interests of the Society in the litigation now going on between the Companies and the Society. The Court were aware that the Fishmongers' Company had been made defendants in the cause along with many of the other Companies, most unwillingly. He could assure them that he had heretofore been strenuous against the litigation, and had done all in his power to prevent it from going on. Now that the Court had placed him in a situation of more power, he could assure them that it would only stimulate him more to put an end to the suit, if it lay in any manner in his power.—(Cheers.) He again begged to thank them most cordially for the handsome mark of their approbation, and be promised that either as a Corporator, a Magistrate, as Mem ber for the City, cr as Governor of the Irish Society, be would study their interests as much as in him lay.—( Cheers.) Mr. WILSON then rose. He wished to call the attention of the Court to a matter which he thought would interfere with the interests of the City. He saw advertisements in the, newspapers of a Company formed in Southwark for the improvement of the streets there, stating their intention of applying to Parliament for a Bill to continue the duty on coals i mportcd into London. or for an encreased duty in order to raise funds for their pur pose. Now as these duties were granted to the City for the purposes of London and Blackfriars Bridges, and as he saw from the Newspapers that a deputation had already been with the Chancellor of the Exchequer on the subject, he thought the Court should lose no time in investigating the matter. He would therefore move that it be referred to the Bridge Committee to examine and report. After some opposition on the ground of its being time enough for the Court to take up the matter when the Remota , brancer called its attention to the subject, Mr. WILSON withdrew his motion, and gave notice of it for Wednesday. THE FUNDS-(THIS DAY). CITY TWELVE 0' CL 0 CK. Montreal papers to the 15th November, and Quebec to the . 14th November, were this day received at the North and South American Coffee-house. The Montreal paper contains the following answer of Lord Gosford to the Address of the Council : " Mr. Speaker and Gentlemen of the Legislative. Coun cil—l return you my thanks for this address. I trust that the measures which his Majesty has commanded me to adopt ma): lead to the most successful results—that dissensions may cease —and goodwill and harmony be restored. To the principles and sentiments which I announced at the opening of this ses sion I shall firmly adhere ; persuaded that by so doing I shall best discharge the duties which his Majesty has been pleased yo confide to me, and promote the general interests of this great community." " Castle of St. Louis, Nov. 11." The Quebec Papers say :—" Let it be remembered of the official letter of Mr. Roebuck to the Speaker of the House of Assembly—we ask can Lord Gosford put his hand upon his heart, and say he acts constitutionally, when he agrees to I vote of money to such a man inculcating such destructive senti ments ? Is the British Constitution already become a nullity? Or are his Lordship's professions a mockery ? In fine, sce would ask is treason to the State to be paid for and rewarded by the State ? But, perhaps, we wrong Lord Gosford—he , doubtless, received his orders from the Ministry." The navigation continues quite open—the number of vessels I in port arc about 30, and will be ready for sea in about a week. THE FUNDS.

KIDNAPPING.—Tuesday evening, betw e en eigh t and nine o'clock, as a respectable woman, named Eli z abeth Cooke, was proceeding through William - street , she op' served a female proceeding close to her at a hurried pot' carrying something of considerable bulk tightly wrapped eV in her apron. Presently, as the woman passed her, 111 0 ;, Cooke heard a child scream, and in a smothered tone eo oat " Bring me to my mother." This proceeding as if free', the burden in the apron, naturally excited suspicion, an she accordingly followed the party into a gateway in th e neighbourhood, where, on inquiry, she ascertained that P t child was in the apron, the bearer of which said it was M i r own. This not being credited , an alarm was given, and two men who happened to be passing at th e time interfered' and rescued the child, which proved to be a girl, age d about six years, and who, immediately on being liberatd: flew off screaming, and with extraord inar y quickness, till t I reached 9, Little Grafton-street , where its p arents (Per' sons of the name of Byrton) , lodged.

TAKING THE VEIL.--On Sunday last the recejr tion of a young lady (Miss Lee) .to the 'Presentation C 4 l . vent of Kildare took place in the new and splendid pa l; chapel to which the convent is attached. At 11 o 'cloc the crowds began to assemble under the influence o f tlie solemn peals of the fine bell (beyond 7 cwt.), until th e t chapel, 120 feet by 40, was densely crowded. An elegavj assemblage filled the gallery, and the enclosed space a rou° 4 the sanctuary. At the close of the mass the young 151'4'4 was conducted by the Mother Superioress an d her assistan' t; to the foot of the altar, and there interrogated. As so e o as the religious resumed their seats, the officiant took th, mass-book, and read the epistle of the mass of the ti° o .'

After the discourse, the ceremonY i te resumed ; the young lady put off her dress, and put on tv, e habit of the order, after which the music bega n, while te, celebrant, officers, and attendants were retiring ; and W I , / short time the immense crowd dispersed in a most or der, ', and re-collected manner.
