TT is a fact established by the annual Bills of Mor 1_ tality that one half of the Children born are eut off before at taining Seven Years of Age, and th. fruitful source of this mortality is found to exist in that foul state of the Stomach and Bowels which Produces the generation of Worms. As the safe restorer of Infan tn. Health, in this critical state, " Ching's Worm Lozenges" have long held a distinguished reputation : Mild and safe in their opera tion, su i te d to every stage o f thi s p er i o d o f lif e , an d i n fallible in their effect, their character has been sustained by the highest names in rank, respectability and science, from a personal know ledge of their utility in their own families. Many fond and anxious lelothers, who have watched with inexpressible solicitude the dawn ing (lsys of their Young Offspring, knowing too well the dangers and vicissitudes of that tender age, have successfully had recourse to these Lozenges, and can gratefully testify to their excellence. As tit opening Medicine in Spring and Summer, and for foulnesa °f the Stomach and Bowels, and Convulsions, although Worms may not exist, it is allowed to be superior to every other.

T HE POCKET GUIDE to DOMESTIC COOKERY. BY A LADY. To which are added, INSTRUCTIONS for TRUSSING and CARVING. With Plates. Not a single Recipe is given in this Volume that has not been practised by the Authoress. CONTENTS :—Chap. I. Instructions for Marketing.—ll. Pre parations and General Rules for Cooking, Trussing, &c.—III. Directions for Carving.—lV. General Remarks on Dinners and Suppers.—V. Made Dishes.—Vl. Soups, Gravies, &c.—VII. Fish Dishes.—Vlll.

The great defect in the numerous Manuals of Cookery, which at present divide the public favour , is their bulk and price. Neither of these objections apply to the present work; although it will be found to contain all that is really and most practically useful to the good and economical housewife. It lias been the object of the Autho ress to supply all the requisite information for keeping a well-or dered kitchen, and furnishing a respectable table, without perplex ing the young Housekeeper with a useless variety of recipes, and a multitude of details, which, even where not entirely frivolous, may at all times be best left to individual judgment, experience, and convenience. POCKET GUIDE TO DO.T.IESTIC COOKERY. BY A. LADY.— This little volume posses an advantage which few volumes can lay clan to—it contains everything that is necessary on the subject ,• and nothing more. Its minute size—its neat style of binding, and the clear and methodical arrangement of the subject, will ensure for it, we doubt not, a very extended popularity ; and enable it to usurp the place of more pretending, but less convenient treatises. The art of carving' is explained in a manner which will be found useful to those who, through dire necessity, or extreme philan thropy, are desirous of attaining a dangerous pre-eminence in that useful art.'—Edinburgh Weekly Journal.

THE POCKET MEDICAL GUIDE, AND THE MOTHER'S POCKET MEDICAL GUIDE.—" Mr. M'Phun has become celebrated for bringing out cheap and useful publications of this sort, and none more useful than the two now before us could well have been given to the public. The one is a treatise written in a popular style, on diet and regimen, cold and its effects, and the use and abuse of medicine ; and the other is one on the physical education and diseases of children. They are the first of a series, worthy of the attention of non-professional readers. The contents are arranged on an excellent plan, besides being in a form which includes much practically useful information in a small space. They are astonish ingly moderate in price ; and we consider the community much in debted to the spirited publisher for these two interesting publica tions."—Aberdeen Observer, Oct. 14, 1834. THE SHORT-HAND WRITER'S POCKET GUIDE, — conveying a full knowledge of this useful Art, on a new and im proved system, by which may be written 150 words per minute, illustrated by an entire copy of the Scripture Paraphrases used in the Church of Scotland, and the 39 Articles of the Church of England. By JOHN GARDNER THE SCOTTISH PULPIT. Three volumes of this valuable work of Practical Divinity are are now completed, and may be had of all booksellers for Bs. each volume. Any volume may be had separate. " The third volume of this excellent body of Practical Theology is completed ; and its merits, we think, are even greater than those of the volumes by which it was preceded. There is a marked im provement in the style of the sermons, and to account for the su periority is not difficult. The utility of the work is now esta blished, and clergymen, appreciating its merits, and knowing its extensive circulation, select with care the sermons they wish to appear in its pages. The Scottish Pulpit is a publication in which Christians of_ every denomination are interested. With party it has nothing to do. The diffusion of Christianity is its object, in a mode cheap, convenient, and elegant.—ln this age of cheap pub lications the idea of furnishing two sermons for two-pence seemed to be merely the speculation of an ardent mind. The attempt, however, pleased the religious public—the variety of the work continued to excite attention—its substantial matter ensured ap probation, till, from ranking as a weekly production, it has as sumed the loftier station of a standard publication of practi. cal divinity. Nor is this strange. The sermons onerally are what such productions should be, calculated to improve the understanding and affect the heart, and from the peculiar circumstances under which they are furnished they have an unction which few printed sermons possess. This public ation, therefore, has just claims for general diffusion. Is the Christian fond to pos sess a sermon of his beloved Minister ? In the stillness of the Sab bath evening, does he wish a work suitable for that day, and in uni son with his feelings?—Does the father, in a domestic circle on that evening, require a publication to instruct the minds of his house hold, and improve their hearts ? Is the Christian, in the seclusion of a sick chamber, desirous of spiritual comfort ?—To all these classes, how diversified soever their circumstances, the Scottish Pulpit is peculiarly adapted. The religious sailor will find this work most suitable for a spare hour on Sunday. It will remind him of home, of his duty to himself, to his neighbour, and to his God. The pious shipmaster, who assembles his crew for religious purposes on Sabbath, would consult his own interest and the spiritual welfare of those for whom lie is deeply responsible, by adding to his religious exercises a selection from the pages of this work. We heartily recommend this publication to the patronage of a religious public ; known, its merits will be acknowledged ; and we are proud to have this work associated with the literature of Scotland. It is worthy of her press and of her pastors ; and the publishers merit the warmest thanks for the manner in which the Scottish Pulpit has been conducted ; and we sincerely trust that their past and con tinued exertinns will be fairly appreciated."— Greenock Advertiser. MACNISH'S ANATOMY of DRUNKENNESS. Price 6s. Fifth Edition. " This little book is evidently the production of a man of genius.

Their extensive purchases, the particular situations of their wharfs (being in different directions in the Metropolis) and the various facilities that rrsons doing a large trade are stue to command over others who transact business on a more limited scale. form a sufficient in ducement to consumers to favour POPE and Co. with their orders; and when it is considered that where other Coal Merchants have to send perhaps twelve miles, Pope and Co. have only to send one-half or one-quarter of the distance, and that the cartage of coals is one great item in the expenses of a Coal Merchant, nothing more need be said to show that Pope and Co. certainly possess the power of supplying the best articles at the cheapest rate.

Sin,—l feel pleasure in acknowledging the essential benefit I have derived from your Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills, which have relieved me from a most violent attack of Rheumatic Gout that had rendered me helpless for eight weeks. I have been fre quently subject to such attacks, which have confined me on each occasion for many months, and never found relief from any other medicine. I shall recommend them to every one I know under similar distressing circumstances, and am, Sir, gratefully obliged, Your obedient servant. J, To the Proprietors of Blair's Pills. May 20, 1835. These Pills are taken without the least care or attention by either sex, young or old, and have the raculiar property of entirely re moving the disease without debilitating the frame, which is uni versally left in a stronger and better state than before the malady commenced. And there is another most important effect bel on g i ng to this medicine—that it prevents the disease flying to th e brai n , stomach, or other vital part.—Sold by Thomas Prout , No. 229, Strand, London, seventh house from Temple-bar, and by all re spectable Medicine Vendors in the Kingdom, price 2.5. 94. per box. , Mr. Cooper, the celebrated transatlantic novelist, has announced a new tale under the title of " The Monikins." This great writer of fiction is to his native country what the author of Waverley was to Scotland, and, like the latter, his fame has travelled to every part of the civilised world. Until Cooper wrote, the sea had not yielded up its treasures to ro mance ; nor had; the stirring and heroic actions of those dviel lers in the wilderness, the Red Indians, been faithfully exhi bited. In the pages of the author of " The Spy," " The Prairie," " The Borderers," and " The Last of the Mohi cans," the deeds and characters of these fast-perishing tribes cf men are perpetuated ; and when they shall be no more, the animated stories of Cooper, will be appealed to as evideece of the wonderful traits by which they were characterised. On Wednesday evening the wife of a milkman, living in Drake-street, Red-Lion-square, fell down in Kings gate-street, Holborn, and instantly expired. LIMERICK, JUNE 26.—From the meeting of the Mayo Central Committee, which took place this week, we learn that the distress of the peasantry on the western coast is most appalling . . Where the destitution seems to be greatest is in the district adjacent to Westport and Newport, and yet the exports from those ports amount on an average to about 300 tons of grain per week; and, with this superabundant s u pply, the markets well filled, at I ls. per cwt., and potatoes at 9,W. and 3 4 ,-d. per stone, the great majority of the popula tionare on the brink of absolute starvation, existing on pre carious charity, on sea weed, shell fish, and cabbage leaves. The landlcrds, as usual, with the exception of a few in Erris, have not contributed a stiver to relieve their starving peasantry —and in this district they are remarkable for exacting a far hither rent than the price of agricultural produce enable the tenant to pay. It appears there are families averaging 30,000 souls, without the means of support. Many families near Westport have had nothing to eat for twenty-fours. There are seven hundred families out of 2,500, who are in a state of complete destitution, without food, without horse, cow, sheep, or pig. WARSAW, JUNE 21.—The Government of the Kingdom of Poland has actually contracted with the houses of S. le Frankel and Joseph Epstein for a loan of 150 mil lions of florins ' which will be employed in a ma nner advan tageous to the Treasury to pay off other debts of the kingdom, and to defray extraordinary expenses not provided for in the Budget. This loan will not impose any additional burden on the country. It is to be paid in 401 years, and the sum an nually paid off is to be 3,961,000 florins, or 300,000 bonds of 500 florins each, payable to the bearer are to be issued, and in the first ten years the lottery which will be drawn to determine which are to be paid off shall be connected with prizes of 750,000 to 1,000,000 florins; after the expiration of that time they are to be at interest at four per cent., and each bond, as the lottery decides on its re-payment, will have 200 florins in addition ; in a word, every holder will receive 700 florins for his 500. This plan has been very favourably received in other countries, and at Berlin and Frankfurt-on-the-Maine a great deal of business had been done in these bonds, though they are not yet issued. The whole plan will be shortly published. COURT-MARTIAL ON OFFICERS OF THE 95T11 REOIMENT.—We learn that the sentence on the officers en gaged in the fatal duel which took place in the Mediterranean has at length been promulgated. They were found guilty of manslaughter, and the Court awarded the following sen tences :—To Lieutenant J. J. Whiting and Lieutenant and Adjutant Collard four years' imprisonment to each, in any of his Majesty's common gaols ; to Ensign M'Donald six months' imprisonment ; but recommended them all to the mercy of his Majesty. The King has been pleased to remit the im prisonment, and order that Lieutenant and Adjutant Collard be dismissed the service, after being allowed the price of his commissions ; that Lieutenant Whiting be removed to an other corps ; and that Ensign M‘Donald be admonished, and return to his duty in the regiment. —Hibernian United Ser vice Journal.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE AT HAMMERSMITH.— Yesterday morning, about one o'clock, a most destructive fire broke out in the candle-house of Mr. Abbott, Angel -terrace, Hammersmith, which for some time threatened the most alarm ing consequences. Several policemen belonging to the T division, with their inspector (Mr. Blake), hastened to the spot, bringing with them the Ealing and other parish engines ; but they were of little use, and Colborn, 79 T, was sent on horseback to town, and very soon returned, followed by the County, Wcst of England, London Fire Engine Establish ment, and British engines : and notwithstanding a very inade quate supply of water was for some time obtained, the firemen succeeded in confining the damage to the houses of Messrs. Trust and Machell, dress-makers, on one side, and the house of Mr. Gardner, haberdasher, on the other. The fire com menced in the candle-room, but whether through negligence or otherwise has not been ascertained. The houses belonging to Mr. Page, printer, and Mr. Pegg's bottle-warehouse, op posite the fire, are very much damaged, the window-shutters and doors being burnt through ; as also the house of Mr. Perring, hatter, of the Strand, the roof having caught fire several times. It was with the utmost difficulty the inmates effected their escape ; to save any property was an impossi bility. Three families only are insured, Messrs. Abbott, Trust, and Machell, in the CoUnty, Globe, and Union fire offices. The machinery, house, &c., belonging to Mr. - Abbott. where the fire began, are totally consumed, not the smallest portion of the stock being saved.

India ruLber manufacturer, Budge row BRITISH AUXILIARY LEGION. Yesterday at one o'clock; the Royal Tar steamer, a splendid vessel, of 700 tons burden, dropped down to Woolwich, to take on board powder, and after a short delay proceeded on her voyage to San Sebastian. She had on board 500 recru it s an d 20 officers of the British Auxiliary Legion, commanded b.• Major Kirby. This detachment was inspected while lvt ag o f f Woolwich by General Alava, the distinguished ambassador from Spain to this Court, the companies a of Wellington throughout the wholo of the Peninsul.: war, and at Waterloo ; and by Colonel Evans, the Com7l,ander. in-Chief of the British Legion. The fatigue e t:ning had been delivered out to the men, they were d r :wn up three deep around the deck, an d really, as a . le hastily collected togeth er , they p resen t e d a surrnsingly military and good appearance. General Alava aut Colonel Evans addressed the men and officers at some length. The former assured them that they would be received as friends and brothers by the great mass of the Spanish people, and that their comforts and subsistence would be anxiously and fully attended to by the Spanish Government. Colonel Evans, in the course of his observations, remarked, that he felt it a high and most distinguished honour to have been offered this command by the Spanish Government, and especially through the medium of one so experienced and'dis tinguished, and above all so well and pre-eminently acquainted with the officers of the British army, as General Alava is known to be. - He stated that when the proposition was first made to him, it was accompanied by an assurance, generously made by the Ambassador, that he would ask permission of his Government to accompany the legion in its operations as the intermediary with the native authorities--an office which General Alava had so well and patriotically filled on so many former glorious oc casions. Colonel Evans dwelt on the advantage to be deriVed from being thus accompanied by one of the most illustrious and influential Noblemen, possessing also one of the largest pro perties in the very centre of the scene of operations. He stated that there was every probability of the Spanish Government yielding their consent to this arrangement. He complimented the men and officers on their excel lent and orderly conduct ; exorted them that they owed it to the Spanish Government, to the English character, and to their comrades, who were to follow in rapid suc cession, to observe a strict discipline and a similar or derly conduct with that which already so creditably distin guished them. He added, that they went to Spain—not, as some violent partisans might pretend, to promote revolution and anarchy—nor as others equally erroneously might appre hend, to further the ends of despotism ; it was for neither the one nor the other of these purposes, but merely to sup port the cause of the Queen of Spain, which in reality was the national cause—the cause of moderate and rational go-. vernment—the cause in fact, with comparatively a small ex ception, of the whole Spanish people. " Now is the time," he said, " for any who may have the slightest complaint to make to come forward, and he would gladly remedy it. He explained to the men that the bounty given by 'the Spanish Government was at least twenty-five or thirty shillings more than that which is granted to recruits for the British army ; since in the King's service the necessaries are deducted from the soldier, and given gratis to the soldiers of the Legion l" Not the slightest complaint was made, the most perfect content was exhibited, and the Ambassador and Colonel left the ship with the loudest cheers and applause. He promised the men that he would himself present them their colours in a very short time after their arrival at San Sebastian. Altogether the appearance of this body of young men presented a most satisfactory and gratifying scene. Three months' pay was, we understand, delivered to the officer in command of the battalion. A second battalion will be embarked on Sunday next for San Ander in the London Merchant Steamer. A rumour has been spread that the Committee of the House of Lords appointed to consider how the vacant office of Clerk-Assistant ought to be dealt with, is likely to recommend the abolition of the office, or, what is the same thing in effect, that its duties should be performed by one of the present subordinate clerks. There can be no doubt that the salary ought to be reduced ; 4,5001. a year is sti excessive remuneration for duties not onerous, however important, and lasting for - only six months in the year. But we should regret to see the office abolished or cons ferrcd on any one but a person o f approved talents and knowledge, or reduced to so low a sa l ary as not to be worth the acceptance of one of the very few p ersons who would be fit for it. The importance of the duties is slot perhaps generally understood. As the Speakership of the House is constantly chancing, the Clerk-Assistant is the virtual secretary of the House., as far as the 'mere business of the House, aet ; :tig as a legislative 'body, is concerned. It is his ' uus i ness to watc h every de bate, and ascertain the'', every amendment that is carried, with respect t o a Pll d , . ,is properly inserted. It is his busi ness to re cor - .A g it that passes, and to superintend th e ar rangemo e's and printing of the votes, journals, and reports. Bu i l so far as the House is a Court of Appeal, and a Court whose decisions are immutable, his responsibility is still greater. It is his business to draw up its decrees—decrees with respect both to legal and equitable points, and from English, Irish, and Scotch tribunals. He is to draw them up sometimes from viva voce judgments, and sometimes from short minutes. It is obvious that this requires accurate and extensive knowledge, considerable talents, and perfect inte grity. It appears to us that to trust such duties to any un tried person, or to any of whose fitness the public knows nothing, merely to save the expense of a salary, would be a miserable economy. In fact, it would be a gross injustice. It would be an injustice to every suitor in the Supreme Court of Appeal. A single error, arising from a decree unskilfully or negligently drawn, might cost the parties far more loss than the public would gain by saving ten years' salary of a competent person. Even ad mitting the possibility that a person selected from among the present subordinate clerks might on trial be found com petent, still this is an experiment which ought .not to be wantonly tried, if the means of making a more promising choice are at hand. And certainly no one can doubt that the whole Bar offers better materials than the nine or ten comparatively obscure persons wbo now sit round the table of the House of Lords.-2lforning Chronicle. We have received a communication from Cambridge, -from a quarter of the highest respectability, on a subject which must attract considerable attention. In our univer sities it has long been customary for the tutors of colleges to make a profit of their pupils, by recommending particu lar tradesmen to them. The students do not pay their bills to the respective tradesmen, but to the tutors, who do not, however, hand over the money so received to those to whom it is due, but retain it in their hands for one, two, or three years, to profit by the interest, or other Wise. It is but just to the tutors of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, to state, that they are not chargeable with this practice. It is quite clear that the tradesmen must charge high, in order to indemnify themselves for the profit made by the tutors, and that the pupils are the sufferers. Every one knows how a west-end tradesman charges a nobleman or gentle man whose bills are only paid once in three or four years. Fleecing pupils in this way is no doubt a scandalous mode of remunerating themselves for their labours. If tutors are at present underpaid, they ought to increase their charges. Be this, however, as it may, a circumstance has occurred at Cambridge, which will probably put an end to the system. A tutor of one of the colleges, notorious for his dilatoriness in paying the tradesmen of his pupils, has lately accepted a living. Being peculiarly distinguished for his professions of sanctity, the tradesmen perhaps con ceived him a safe, though a very long-winded, depOsitory. But patience has its limits, and the tradesmen became cla morous for the money received by him in what may be called the character of their agent. To their astonish ment, however, his solicitor has recently called a meet ing of them, and made a statement to them, from which it appears that, in his double capacity of trustee and agent for them, he has received little short of 20,0001., and that he can produce effects to meet their claims which will not pay ss. in the pound. To some of the un fortunate tradesmen the consequences will be almost ruinous. The tutor in question was a great Conservative, and hav ing, in common with other tutors professing the same opi nions, patronized the tradesmen who voted for his friend, Sir Edward Sugden, the sufferers are all supporters of the Conservative cause, which has thus received a severe blow through him. It required only an exhibition of this kind. to shame the tutors out of this most disgraceful mode of sharing in the plunder of their pupils. If tradesmen be kept out of their money for two or three years, they will take special care to indemnify themselves by most exorbi tant charges. We do not mean to saY that young men 'should be intrusted with large sums of money, in order that it may not be necessary for them to run in debt to trades. men ; but if the tutors of Corpus Christi College have shown that credit can be given to pupils without keeping tradesmen out of their money for two or three years, the tutors of other Colleges ought to be taught to follow their example.-21forning Chronicle. We have only sufficient space to-day to call the attention of our readers to the petition presented by Mr. Shaw last evening, relative to the intimidation practised at elections by the Irish Priests. The facts stated in this petition caused a thrill of horror throughout the whole House— even Mr. O'Connell had not the courage to attempt to pal liate the enormities committed by these men, and when Mr. O'Connell is silent in defence of his allies, the Priests, their case must indeed be bad. We shall return to this subject, for it is one in which the Legislature now must interfere. —Morning Post. In the House of Commons last night, Mr. Fox Maule brought up some returns from various counties in England, and stated that he was unable to present returns from all the counties, as the Clerks of the Peace of some of them had refused to make the returns until their expenses were paid, or until they knew to whore they were to look for those expenses. This led to a discussion, in the course of which Mr. Hume made a very• just observation, to the ef feet that the present system, as related to the Clerks of the Peace, was essentially bad, and that, instead of being re. munerated by feeS, they should be paid a liberal salary, equivalent to the whole of their time, in which case such squabbles as this could not have occurred. It is not to be denied that as long as the Clerk of the Peace is to be paid according to what he does, the House of Commons can have no right to impose heavy duties upon him without giving him an equivalent for his labour ; but it becomes a serious question, whether the principle hitherto adopted in the remuneration of those Gentlemen is either convenient in itself or advanta geous to the public. We are apt to believe that it is neither the one nor the other. The system of being paid by fees opens a wide field to chicanery, and, even where parties are not unscrupulous, offers a temptation which men might be pardoned if they lacked fortitude to resist. It is astonishing how it pervades through every department in this country, notwithstanding that it has, in many instances, led to the grossest flagitiouseess. We can remember that a complaint was once made to the House of Commons that it was the practice in Middlesex to charge I ls. Bd. for the discharge of the recognizances of any one who was held to bail. We hope this practice does not still prevail, for a more unprincipled one cannot well be conceived. It may, perhaps, be legal—it may be a vested right, which the Clerk of the Peace may think it hard to be deprived of, but, as regards the parties who are thus mulcted, it is absolute extortion. They enter into recognizances to appear on a given day to answer any charge against them. The day comes—they are charged—tried— perhaps acquitted. They return home, and in some 10 or 12 days afterwards their sureties receive a letter to the effect that they were bound in recognizance that so and so should appear to answer such a charge against him at such a Sessions, and that, he not having done so his recog nisances have become estreated unto the Exchequer, and executions will be placed in their houses, unless they pay the amount for which they have respectively become surety. Terrified and alarmed, they fly to the Clerk of the Peace, and be tells them that they must pay lls. Bd., in which case the recognizances will not be enforced. If he should happen to be found guilty the same process takes place, which renders the falsehood " he not having appeared," the more glaring. This may be law, but it is the grossest possible outrage upon every idea the mind can entertain of justice. An innocent man may—nay, the fact repeatedly occurs—be dragged before our tribunals, and it is not enough that he is put to all the uneasiness of suspense, and to all the expenses attend ing his defence, which be cannot recover from his prosecutor, but the Clerk of the Peace must step in at the close, not only to fleece him, but to terrify his friends, that they shall have officers in possession of their goods, though the person for whom they went bail may have complied with every obligation which they had pledged themselves he should perform. We have already said tttat we know not whether this system of legal extortion is still permitted to prevail, and our only object. in referring to it on the .present occasion is to point out the public c e d a u s t a i e l a s r t y ° 6 l9 n e l paid ils e ~b c y e uflede fees for Weyer Imp lc) o seek an increase of emolumt l it s .'h y a h • had ae r t b h e e e n C f l i e n r s d k u L ff i t o c e f r a in t t h g o e practice so unworthy of a person filling a publi c offieF As the matter stands , with res p ect t o the returns ordered by the House, we confess that, as long as the vici ous sys t em is suffered to continue, the House o f C ommons h as no right to stand upon its power , and say to the Clerks of the Peace, " You shall give us your labour gratuitously," COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL. Yesterday a Court was held for the transaction of some arrears of business, which had accumulated in consequence of the many fruitless meetings which have lately taken place. After a long discussion upon the subject of proceeding with the consideration of petitions, &c., before that of the question of privilege, it was determined that in consequence of the great inconvenience which had arisen from the delay of the public business, the latter subject should be preceded by the petitions ar.d the memorials, and the Report of the Committee on Marshal Brown's conduct only. THE PORT OF LONDON. A memorial from the St. Katherine's Dock Company, ou the important subject of the navigation of the port of London, was then presented at the bar of the Court. The memorialists complained of the determination of the Port Committee, by ►which additional ships were to be moored in tiers on the north shore of the Lower Pool, and which would have the effect of narrowing the navigable channel of the Pool from 300 to 210 feet, and in some parts of the Pool to 150 feet. The memo rial was referred to the Navigation Committee. CHARGE OF INTIMIDATION. Mr. WIRE presented a petition from Mr. Loader, who had been clerk to Mr. Newman, the clerk of the Bridge House Estates, an office held under the Corporation, complaining of having been dismissed from his situation in consequence of not having voted promptly for Alderman Farebrother, at the last Lambeth election. The petition recapitulated the state ments made to the House of Commons a few days ago by the same person, which was referred to the Intimidation Com mittee, and it prayed that the Court would take the matter into its serious consideration, the petitioner being in a dis tressed state on account of his dismissal, after a service of eighteen years. After some observations from several .Members, Mr. WIRE stated that he had documents in his hand to sustain every thing contained in the petition. The petition was then referred to the Committee. The Court then proceeded to the consideration of the Re port of the Committee upon the case of Marshal Brown. It will be recollected that the Committee acquitted Marshal Brown of all corrupt motive in negotiating for the recovery of the goods which were stolen from Mr. Williamson, of Cornhill, but reprehended the part he took in the transaction as indis creet and improper. It concluded with a recommendation that the Lord Mayor having censuredhim, the Court of Alder men should be applied to to swear him in. Mr. GALLOWAY moved that the Court should agree with the Committee in their Report. _ _ Mr. C. PEARSON moved as an amendment that the Re port be sent back to the Committee, with directions that the Committee should confer with the ourt of Aldermen on the subject. A division took place on the Amendment, when there ap peared— For the Amendment Against it Majority against the Amendment ...-27 The original motion was then carried, and the Marshal having been called in, was censured by the Lord Mayor. He declared, in returning thanks, that he had no motive on earth for the part he had acted, except for the good of the person who had been plundered. The next proceeding in this case will be the application to the Court 'of Aldcrmen•to swear in the Marshal. Adjourned. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. Yesterday Mrs. Mailes, whose husband keeps a beer-shop in Upper Thames -street, attended to answer the complaint of Mr. Pierce, of Little Trinity-lane; who suspected her of being concerned in inveigling his daughter, a young lady of some what imbecile mind, to run away from his house in the country with his groom ( Mrs. Maile's brother) for the purpose of being married, the groom being incited by motives of lucre, as the young lady has considerable expectations. Sir P. LAURIE coming in accidentally, Mr. Alderman COPELAND appealed to him for advice, stating that he under stood the groom, a young man of 20, named Norfleet, had been discharged by Mr. Pierce about a fortnight ago, and on Monday morning last, when the family rose, it was discovered that - the young lady had disappeared, and property to the amount of Zia had been carried off. There was no doubt, from what had subsequently transpired, that she had been enticed away by the groom, and inquiry being made of Mrs. Mailes, she admitted she had received a letter from her mother intimating that the young lady would come to town on Monday, but she denied knowing where either her brother or the young lady was secreted. This being discredited he issued a warrant to search Mrs. Mailes's house, but neither the missing daughter nor the missing pro perty was found there, and Mrs. Mailes had destroyed the letter she received on Monday. The applicant was much dis tressed, not knowing what the young man's intentions towards her might be, nor what privations she might have to suffer. It had been ascertained that the youth was at his sister's house so lately as Monday morning, and it was alleged he had gone, nobody knew whither, to make hay for a livelihood. He had therefore required Mrs. Mailes to appear before him to give such explanations as might Le in her power. Mr. Alderman COPELAND conjured Mrs. Mailes to tell,-if she knew, where the parties could be found. Mrs. Mailes said she did not know, and that Mr. Pierce had only himself to blame for what had happened, for if he had brought the girl up properly she would not have behaved in this way. The Magistrates, after consulting for a short time, intimated that they believed she knew all about the business, aid it might prove a serious matter to her, but they would take her promise to appear again when required.—She was then discharged.
