SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. ple, the main duties of St. Bride's devolving on a Curate. Sir Robert Peel considered that he had an unquestionable right to the nomination to this living, was responsible for the exercise of that right, and was determined to exercise it in such a manner as might be most for the advantage of the parish of St. Bride. It is utterly untrue that the nomination to the living was transferred from one party to another with the view of defeating the claims or expectations of Mr. Rowlatt. When Sir Robert Peel requested the Bishop of Londom to name to him a successor to Dr. Allen, his right of nomination, as First Lord of the Trea sury, was unquestioned, and, as we have already shown, he did not know that Mr. Rowlatt had had the slightest expectations given to him with regard to the living. From the correspondence which Mr. Rowlatt has published, it would appear that his pros pect of being appointed to St. Bride's depended mainly upon that living being in the gift of -tire Lord Chan cellor, for Mr. Le Marchant, so Ate as the sth of November, 1834, writes a letter Mr. Rowlatt to the We have already alluded to three Lieutenancies for Gloucester, Monmouth, and Brecon, vacant by the . . death of the Duke of Beaufort. The country has a right to require from the Premier the selection of de cided friends of the Liberal cause. We are now in the seventh year, with a short interregnum, of Reform Administration 4 . -: A dreary period of Tory domina tion, extending throughout the long reign of George the Third and that of George the Fourth, excluded nearly all enlightened members of the Aristocracy from power and authority. The Lord Lieutenancies of Eng land and Wales—the Magistracies and Municipal Authorities in England, Scotland, and Ireland, have been " Conservatives" for upwards of half a century ; and they constitute a standing army of an ti- Reformers, opposed to all liberal measures, and dis posed to oppress the independent portion of the con stituencies. The Lord Lieutenancics of England and Wales are little German principalities. One man—generally a nobleman of large landed posses sions and powerful local connections—is the supreme and irresponsible creator of the whole Magistracy of the county over which he rules. Custom, and the former dependency of the Crown on the boroughmongers and grasping aristocracy, contributed to despoil the Sove reign of his ancient prerogative (through the Great Seal) of appointing the County Magistracy. The people formerly elected their own Magistrates. The Sovereign usurped their ancient privilege. The Aris tocracy usurped the regal power. The Crown still has the right . but not the use. Thus we have seen Whig Ministers and their zealous partizans throughout the kingdom annually insulted by the majority of the Lord Lieutenants promoting to the magistracy the most bitter opponents of liberal prin ciples, systematically excluding all Reformers—what ever their character, property, or fitness—from the commission. Can we wonder at the disgust and loud dissatisfaction which this grievance has occa sioned ; the Lord Lieutenant not merely appoints jus tices of the peace—he appoints deputy-lieutenants, and has, besides, much of the militia and yeomanry pa tronage ; to him, numerous parsons and public func tionaries pay humble court at all times. Again, the extent of inferior patronage belonging to the magis tracy is without limit. - We may say that the whole civil and criminal jurisdiction of the country is vested in these local despots, thrust between the Crown and the people. A local taxation of enormous amount, with a rank and file of stipendiary officers, form also no mean portion of the power of the Lieutenancy. - We shall hereafter give some details of this standing army of public functionaries, and of their influence in elections. The nuisance of this Tory monopoly has become intolerable to the people. Already we discern in the country Press growing symptoms of the dissatisfaction in the pro vinces. The great principles of self-government and of municipal representation co-extensive with taxation, recently and gloriously obtained by the Corporate Ci ties and Boroughs, cannot long be withheld from the unincorporated towns, or from the rural districts of the counties. The people will speedily assert the right to some voice in the choice of their Magistrates—to some control over the levy and expenditure of local taxa tion. In the meanwhile, we hail the good fortune which enables Lord Melbourne to bestow the Lieu tenancies of three counties on liberal and enlightened men. It is a mistake to suppose that Commoners should always be excluded from the Lieutenancy. The Tories never were nice in their selections. Mr. Wod ehouse was the Lord Lieutenant of Norfolk, Mr. Powell is Lord Lieutenant of Cardiganshire, Sir W.W.Wynne of Denbigh and Merionethshires, Sir J. Owen of Pem broke. In short, the Tories would have made any man a Lord Lieutenant soo er than see a Whig in the Lieu tenancy. In the majority of English and Welsh coun - ties the Tory Lord Lieutenants have in turn insolently excluded from the magistracy every liberal country gentleman opposed to their local influence or personal politics ; and every - Tory squire, and every cringing and political parson, distinguished for his rancorous hostility to every thing libe ral, have been thrust into the Commission of the Peace. We therefore call on Ministers to avail them selves of this fortunate opportunity to give liberal heads to at least three liberated counties. Nor shall we rest satisfied here. Some legislative means must be de vised for generally liberalizing the County Magistracy. Can Ministers wonder that the counties should return Conservative representatives, while such permanent local staffs exist, banded tot -Tether to influence and coerce the county constituencies ? We would rather see one Lord Lieutenancy " fall in than twenty Bi-, shoprics... Without wishing to undervalue the duty of attending to the spiritual interests of the people, it will be readily admitted that their temporal concerns — the protection of their pockets—the securing an impar tial magistracy, and the independent exercise of the elective franchise.are also of some importance. We shall anxiously watch the Gazette.-- adorning Chron. The absurd pertinacity of those worst enemies, the indiscreet friends of the Rev. Mr. Rowlatt, induces us, though reluctantly, to return to his _case. The following statement will, we should think, set the mat ter at rest. The parish of St. Bride, Fleet-strect, con tains a population of 7,000 persons, and it would he difficult to name any parish in which the services of a resident minister, devoting him self to the personal dis charge of his duties, could be of greater importance. The vacancy having occurred in the living by the pro motion. of Dr. Allen to the see of Bristol, the right of presentation belonged to the Crown, and not to the Lord Chancellor, and it was the duty of the First Lord of the Treasury to advise the Crown in respect to the appointment of an incumbent. The rule (a rule established by the highest authority, and, as we believe, uniformly observed in practice) is, this—That the Lord Chancellor bath a right, and that by favour only, not enforceable by common law, to pre,• sent to all the King's livings which are rated under 201; a year in the King's books ; but this rule does not apply to vacancies by lapse or promotion, the right of ap pointment to which is in the Crown. Sir R. Peel finding the living of St. Bride's vacant by the promo tion of Dr. Allen, and not having any reason for a doubt that he was entitled to name the successor, re quested the Bishop of London to recommend to him, from the unbeneficed clergy of his diocese, the minister best qualified by professional and moral character, and by his abilities as a preacher, for the laborious duties of a populous and important parish. When Sir Robert Peel made this communication to the Bishop, he not only had no doubt that the nomination rested with him, but he was wholly unapprized that Mr. Rowlatt was a candidate for the living, or had received any assurances in respect to it. This appears from the letter written to Mr. Rowlatt by Sir Robert Peel, which letter, to the following effect, Mr. Rowlatt has published in his pamphlet, a copy of which has been sent to us by some unknown correspondent : " Whitehall, January 23, 1835. " Sir,—l regret that the duties in which I have been incessantly engaged have prevented me hitherto from send ing an earlier reply to your letter of the 29th December. " The living of St. Bride's was in the gift (according to uniform usage), from the circumstances under which it be came vacant, of the Treasury, and not of the Great Seal. Your letter of the 29th of December was the first intima tion I received, direct or indirect, that you were even a can didate for the living. I had, previously to its date, signified my determination to make an appointment to this living, exclusively with a view to the most efficient personal di:- charge of the spiritual duties of the appointment by some Minister of the Church who would devote his whole time to them. " The Gentlemen I have selected was wholly unknown to me, and the nomination to it was unsolicited and unexpected by him. However satisfactory in every other respect his appointment has been, I regret that it should have been the, means of disappointing expectations which you have been led to entertain ; but I must add, that I could not have deemed it advisable to make any nomination to a living, cir cumstanced like St. Bride's, which would not have insured the constant personal discharge of the duties by the in cumbent. " I have, &c. i , ROBERT PEEL." If . the spiritual interests of the parish of St. Bride are to have any we . %h t in determining the question of the 4elpction of a Minister, there can, we apprehend, be litile'dciubt that the appointment of Mr. Dale to be the resident Minister of the parish, personally dis charging the duties of the cure, was preferable to the giving of the living to Mr. Rowlatt, to be held by him in conjunction with his preachership at the Tem- alliance with Spain, of their adherence to the principles therein laid down. A cordial notice is taken of the amicable disposition demonstrated towards Spain by the three liberal powers, England, France, and Portugal, and of the relations of union and friendship expressed towards the Spanish Constitutio*GOvernrnent by all the States, throughout the world, in which the blessings of constitutional liberty are recognised or enjoyed. Bra zil, Denmark, Sweden, Belgium, and Greece, constitute the catalogue of these free States. A collaterally gra tifying inference may be drawn from this enumeration of free and friendly States disposed to sympathise, if not to act, with the Government of Spain in its struggle for substantial liberty. It seems to reveal the desi derated materials of a league of free States, which may be called for sooner than is at present imagined, for the purpose of erecting a barrier against the aggressions of northern barbarism, supported by the absolute Courts which concur with it in spirit, and sympathise with it in interest, if not in design. To wards these Courts, viz., Russia, Austria, and ' Prussia the speech maintains a dignified silenc e. It is I . , neitner captious, however, nor obtrusive on the sub ject. The Queen's Government could take no other tone towards those Powers which have not hitherto thought fit to recognise it by avowed envoys, and which by that act show, not only their unwilling ness to befriend it,. but their willingness to de clare against it, provided a safe and eligible oppor tunity for so doing should occur. The Speech, there fore, in a manly avoidance of those diplomatic cour tesies which too often violate truth, preserves a tran quil, and, as we have said, - a dignified silence on the subject. The attitude of Spain embodied in it, may be said to speak a tacit language to those absolute Powers to the following effect :—" We do not wish to provoke you to war ; we are careless respecting either your friendship or your enmity. Your disapprobation of the new forms of freedom which we have amalgamated with our fundamental free institutions, or built upon the wreck of tyrannical abuses by which those insti tutions were corrupted, are nothing to us : we do not expect you to set the seal of your sanction to princi ples, which are inherently at war with your actual in stitutions, and, possibly, with your ultimate existence. We do not call upon you to renounce your dislike to them in our favour, nor do we wish rashly to blow the embers of a war of opinion between us. Our attitude is one, not ofaggression, but self-defence. We are in . different. to your friendship; but we shall be ready and able .tatlerend ourselves against your hostilit3tk" Such is the elevated and appropriate tone which the present energetic and sagacious Prime Minister has put into the mouth of the Queen Governess of Spain. The tone which he takes with regard to the South American re publics is imbued with the same sagacious recognition of times and seasons, and with the same disinterested devo tion to the principles of liberty. He avows that friendly negotiations are entered into with those States, for the purpose of sanctioning their independent separation from the mother country. The speech among other points, naturally exhibits the anxiety which the Go vernment must feel on the subject of an adequate de velopernent of the nation's financial resources. Some schemes are stated to be in prospect for this purpose, and a complete system of financial administration is to be proposed to the Cortes. Foi our own part, we have no fear, while the Queen's Government proceeds as it does, that it will find adequate financial means. The public opinion of Spain, and of all free Europe, • will rally round it, and all the ample resources of credit • will inevitably follow in its train. T. this result the ex cellent measures meditated by M. IVlendizabal, of which a coup devil is given in the speech,—and that, whether they are measures of fiscal improvement, of commercial encouragement, or of political rege neration, or all three combined,—will powerfully contribute. The measures of political regenera tion indeed announced—more especially those which embrace extension of the ' electoral suffrage—free dom of the Press—and Ministerial responsibility —are in themselves such as are calculated to give solidity and permanence to the Spanish Government. They ale not calculated to give alarm by the annun ciation of any extreme principles of liberty ; while they are, at the same time, calculated to win the con fidence of all the powerful free States throughout the world, and to secure not less the moral sympathy of those States, than, if necessary, their physical co- ope ration. The Spanish Government confesses in a frank and veracious ..manner the difficulties under which the Government labours for want of an adequate military force in putting down the rebellion of Don Carlos ; but it gives good hopes, at the same time, that by vigorous and skilful measures the ollject may be effected without the very hazardous aid of foreign interposition. We are assured that under the pru dent and vigilant auspices of Mendizabal, the Queen's Government will go on daily increasing in strength, not only with reference to the disposal of all the physical means of Spain, but with reference to the moral corrobora tion afforded by the union of public opinion in its favour. We see in the Madrid Gazette something like a semi official reference to the entry of a large body of French troops into Spain. 'We trust that no such design will be thought of by the Spanish Government, or if thought of, will not be retained. It has never happened in the history of nations that any ultimate advantage, in the bona-fide establishment of independence and liberty, has been reaped by the State which has been compelled to lean on foreign support for protection, instead of trusting to its own energy and spirit. In many cases, the temporary protector has been ultimately converted into a permanent dictator. According to the fable, the horse, which called in the man to hunt down its enemy, the stag, ended the hunt by becoming the slave of its potent, but • interested, ally. Well did Lord Byron say, referring to the struggle of the Greeks for independence,— " By your own arms the battle must be won; Who would be free, himself must strike the blow." —Morning Advertiser. following effect " Dear Sir,—The Chancellor Jos e been, and still is, in communication with Lord MelbOitine, about St. Bride's. Every thing promises a favourable issue to the Chancellor's claim, and consequently to your application." It is perfectly true that Sir Robert Peel confirmed the appointment of Mr. Eden to the living of Batter sea, which, in respect to the right of nomination, was similarly circumstanced to St. Bride's ; but Mr. Eden intended to resign, and did resign, his other preferment in the Church, and took upon himself the personal discharge of the duties of the living. The difference between the two cases is this—that no better appoint ment to the living of Battersea could have been made than that of Mr. Eden, and that a much better, ap pointment to the living of St. Bride's could be made than that of Mr. Rowlatt, to hold it in conjunction with the Readership of the Temple. As for the in sinuation of Mr. Rowlatt and his advocates, that Mr. Eden owed the confirmation of his appointment to his near connexion with Sir Robert Peel, the best answer is, that Mr. Eden is brother to Lord Auckland, the late First Lord of the Admiralty, and the Nobleman who superseded Lord Heytesbury in the government of India, subsequently to Lord Heytesbury's actual appointment by the Couit of Directors, and the formal sanction of that appointment by the Crown. The nearness of Mr. Eden's connexion with Sir Robert Peel consists in this—that he is cousin to . Sir Robert - Peers brother-in-law, Lord Henley ; but it would ap pear from the letter which Mr. Eden has-himself ad- , dressed to the Times, and which appeared in the paper on Monday last, that he has never seen Lord Henley since Lord Henley's marriage, and that he is personally wholly unknown to Sir Robert Peel. We repeat for the twentieth time, that we entertain no individual feeling towards Mr. Rowlatt, but one of kindness ; and that we should be glad to see him appointed to some charge for which he is duly fitted ; but we can not consent to sacrifice our sense of truth and justice to mere personal considerations.—Times. Mr. H. L. Bulwer, the Member for Marylebone, it will have been seen, has been appointed Secretary of Legation at Brussels, in the place of Sir George Ha milton. That this is such an appointment as vacates the scat of the Hon. Member we do not assert ; but • without alluding to the fact of its being a lucrative office, and on that account calling for a surrender of the trusts reposed in the Hon. Member into the hands of his constituents, we feel confident that all reason able persons will agree with us that any foreign ap pointment is totally incompatible with the due dis charge of the duties of a Member of Parliament ; and without, therefore, relying on the point so ably discussed by the Marquis of Northampton and others, whether constituents have or have not a right upon any change taking place in the situation of their representative to call upon him to resign, in order that they may decide whether he may be still deserving of their confidence, we take our stand on this, that no constituency, in times like the present, can or ought to remain unrepresented from any private feeling towards an indivi dual. We do not pretend to know what Mr. Bulwers intentions may be, but our suspicions have been excited by some remarks in the Globe and Courier of last night, the one, after mentioning the appointment and the probability of Mr. Bulwer's being able to return to his Parliamentary duties, adds, " we need not observe that diplomatic appointments abroad do not of them selves vacate a seat." No one ever suspected it—and the people of Canterbury know that a representative being removed some thousands of miles from this coun try is not considered by some pthesons a sufficient cause for resigning into other hands duties which it is not within the range of human powers to discharge. Our other Evening Contemporary, without alluding to the appointment as being probably only of a temporary duration, states that Mr. Bulwer is not likely to re sign his seat at present. If the appointment he one of only a few months' duration, all very well ; but if it should be of a more permanent nature, we suspect that the electors of Marylebone will not feel disposed to look upon the situation of their representative as a mere honorary sinecure, the duties of which may be as well dischareed in the drawing-rooms . of Brussels, as on the benches of St. Stephen's—at all events, with out at all meaning to derogate from the dignity and independence of any Member of Parliament, we can not but think that, upon the accepting an appoint ' ment of this description, it is his duty to take the opinion of his constituents on the subject of retaining his seat.—Morning Herald. The constant tenor of the conduct of both Houses of Parliament shows that the greatest jealousy has always prevailed with respect to an improper exercise of the influence which Members derive from their situa tion. • Whenever that influence has been applied to eoupressive or sordid purposes, the offenders have ge nerally been punished. The practice of a Member of the House of Commons in exacting what is called the Rent" from his poor fellow-subjects, and in a recent instance receiving 2,0001. for using his influence in the electioa of an Irish county Member, will doubtless occupy the attention of that branch of the Legisla ture to which he is attached. If money is given to a man to be disposed of in bribes, the giver, under the statute 2d Geo. 11., can recover it back in an action, consequently the Ex-Sheriff of London has a remedy at law ; but the reproach which falls on a Reformed Parliament by such transactions is too obvious. Many precedents of Parliamentary pro ceedings opposed to sordid acts on the part of in dividual Members are found upon the Journals. In order to make it notorious that neither the conditions of a Representative of the people, nor the influence he might have in Parliament, would excuse any departure from justice, the House of Commons has occasionally passed the most severe censures they could inflict. In one instance that censure applied to their Speaker him self. Sir John Trevor, Speaker of the House of Com mons, in the sixth year of King William, received one thousand guineas from the City of London, as a gra tuity for the trouble he had taken in passing the Orphan Bill. For that misconduct he was voted guilty of high crime and misdemeanour, and expelled the House. " Even," says an able writer on the Constitution of Eng land, "the inconsiderable sum of twentyguineas, which Mr. Hungerford, another Member, had been weak enough to accept on the same score, was looked upon as deserving the notice of the House, and he was like wise expelled." Other examples might be produced of the attention paid by the House of Commons to sordid misconduct. In the reign of James I. Sir Giles Mompesson, a Member of the House of Com mons, having been guilty of monopolies and other acts of oppression on the people, was not only ex pelled but impeached, prosecuted by the House, and condemned to be degraded from his rank of a Knight, and imprisoned for life. In the same reign Sir John Bennett, a Member of the House, having been guilty of taking exorbitant fees, was expelled the House. In 1641, Mr. Henry Benson, a Member for Knaresbo rough, having been detected in selling protections, ex perienced likewise the indignation of the House, and was expelled. It was reserved for a modern Re formed House of Commons to permit one of its Members to exact contributions from nearly the whole Roman Catholic population of Ireland,--Morn. Post. There are several points iri the speech of the Queen Governess of Spain, which seem to call for some re marks, in addition to those which it drew from us yes terday. The speech refers to the repeated proofs given by the Sovereigns who signed the treaty of quadruple CHANCERY COURT-THURSDAY. THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1835. suffered a severe contusion. He remained an in-door pa tient of the hospital for five months, and since that time, and up to the present moment, he attends as an out-door patient, and so severe have been his injuries, that he is still unable to walk. Mr. Sergeant ANDItEWS, for the defendant, contended that it was Threwitt's omnibus, and not the defendant's which ran over the plaintiff. Verdict for the plaintiff-841. EXCHEQUER COURT.-THURSDAY. ROUT V. BLACKWELL. The defendant was acceptor of a bill of exchange for 181., made in December, 1831, and due in February, 1832. The bill had never been presented for payment, nor had the de fendant heard of it until February, 1835, when he received an attorney's letter demanding payment. The pleadings having been opened, Mr. KELLY, for the defendant, stated that the bill was given for the accommodation of a Mrs. Robertson, who, with her son, carried on the business of a tailor, in South ampton-buildings, Holborn. The bill was discounted for her by the plaintiff ; but before it became due she made over her business to the plaintiff, who agreed to take the debts and credits upori himself, and the bill which was now made the subject of an action was to be quashed. The Jury, without hearinc , the summing up of the Judge, returned a verdict for the defendant. Mr. Baron GURNEY admonished the Jury upon the haste with which they had delivered their verdict. He thought they had come to a right decision, but a little more delibe ration qpon their part would have been more satisfactory. The COURT proceeded with several undefended causes. ~~: , IZ:I4W ~ TURNER V. RAWLINSON. This was an appeal from the Master of the Rolls on a decision with respect to exceptions to the Master's report. The suit was instituted to compel the specific performance of a contract, and the question now raised had reference principally to the facilities which a vendor was bound to give a purchaser in the investigation of the title, and in the comparison of the abstracts with the original, deeds, accord ing to the practice of conveyances. Their LORDSHIPS dismissed the appeal with costs. KING'S BENCH-THURSDAY. DANE V. THE VISCOUNTESS KIRWALL. Mr. MILLER applied to postpone the trial of this cause, on the ground that the defendant had been forcibly carried off by her father-in-law, the Earl of Orkney, and that the habeas corpus obtained from the Court of Exchequer a few days ago had not been returned. They asked for this delay in order to be able to obtain instructions. _ _ Mr. JOHN EVANS, for the plaintiff, required time to answer the affidavits on which the motion was founded.— Time was accordingly granted. WEEKS V. FORD. This action was brought to recover the balance of an ac count. The defendant bad kept a gambling-house under the name of a club in Dover-street, and had employed the plaintiff to be his butler at a salary of two pounds a week, and ten shillings board wages. The establishment did not succeed, and the defendant decamped, leaving his servants in the house. This action was afterwards brought to re cover the balance of an account for goods supplied by the plaintiff to the house, , and also for arrears of board wages. Mr. PLATT appeared for the plaintiff, and the ATTOR NEY-GENERAL for the defendant. The Jury immediately returned a verdict for the de fendant. COMMON PLEAS.-THURSDAY. CAUTION TO OMNIBUS DRIVERS :MOORE V. BIRD. This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a poor man, a porter, against• the defendant, to recover compensation for a serious injury which he sustained by being run over by his omnibus. In March last, the defendant's omnibus, in company with another omnibus, which belonged to a• person of the name of Threwitt, was furiously driving down Oxford-street, to wards the City, as if racing. The plaintiff was at the corner of Marylebone-place, in the act of crossing over ; at that moment the defendant's and Threwitt's omnibus_ drove ra pidly up, and before he could get out of the way he was run over by the omnibus of the former. He was imme diately taken up and conveyed to the Middlesex Hospital, and, on examination of his injuries, it was ascertained that one of his ankles was badly bruised, and that the other had BANKRUPTCY COURT. A. meeting of the creditors of Messrs. Lee, Brassey, Farr, and Company, of Lombard-street, bankers, was held yesterday, for the further proof of debts, and the declara tion of a dividend. Application was made to claim certain shares in the Atlas Company, on behalf of an individual who left them in possession of one of the bankrupts, the 'certificate for the shares being made out in his name. It was urged, whereas, the shares in question were only deposited with the bankrupt, the party owning them ought to have them restored. Mr. Commissioner FONBLANQUE could not consent to the application. A number of proofs were tendered during the day, amounting in all to 8,6001. The COMMISSIONER asked the amount of the assets in hand ? The Official Assignee stated that they amounted to very nearly 31,000/. A first dividend was ordered to be declared, which it is estimated will amount to about 3s. in the pound. Further proceedings were then adjourned. SHERIFFS COURT.-THURSDAY. CRIBB V. ANDERSON. Mr. LEE stated this action to be brought by Mr. Cribb, the carver and gilder, of King-street, Covent-garden, to re cover from the defendant, the singer, the sum of 31. for certain gilding done to three frames. The defendant had denied that he was indebted to the plaintiff, for he had his receipt for the money. The Learned Counsel then stated the facts and commented upon the nature of the defence, which, he said, detracted from the defendant's public character. The Jury immediately found a verdict for the plaintiff. CRIMINAL COURT.-THURSDAY, Robert Graves and Henry Hastings, two plumbers, em ployed in the extensive repairs going on at Greenwich Hos pital, were indicted for stealing a large quantity of lead, the property of the Commissioners of Greenwich Hospital. The principal witness being an accomplice, and the evi dence being defective, the prisoners were acquitted. Hastings was again indicted for stealing a quantity of lead. The evidence being precisely the same as in the for mer case, the prisoner was acquitted. John and Thomas Bayley, two respectable-looking young • men, were indicted for receiving a large quantity of lead, stolen from the Hospital. Evidence having been adduced on the part of the prose cution, Several witnesses swore that they saw a person of the name of Stagg take the lead td the house, and he was the son-in-law of a person who had repeatedly large quantities of lead in his possession. Lord DENMAN could not help thinking there was a great degree of negligence on the part of those who had a control over the property of the Hospital, in not takin g better care of it. With respect to the young men at the bar he consi , &red there did not exist the slightest suspicion. The Jury instantly acquitted them. His Lordship ordered the two young men to be imme diately discharged. The result of the trial appeared to give great satisfaction to a crowded Court. Sarah Bowling, alias Square, was again indicted for steal inr, some more articles of plate and clothing , the p r op ert y of Mr. Roe ; and Bridget Doyle with receiving the same. well knowin g it to have been stolen. The Jury found Doyle Guilty, and acquitted Bowling. Mr. Roe recommended Doyle to mercy on account of having five small children. The RECORDER considered there was no ground for such recommendation. The prisoner was then sentenced to be transported for fourteen years. Bowling, on being cautioned by the Recorder as to her future conduct, said " I should be very happy if you would also transport me." William Lee was indicted for stealing a chest of drawers, a silver watch, three shirts, and other articles of wearing apparel, the property of Ann Lee, his sister. They both resided in the same house at Highgate. Pro secutrix left her property safe at seven in the evening of the 18th, and, on her return-home at ten at, night, she found the door had been broken open, and the articles mentioned in the indictment had been removed into the roem occupied by the prisoner. The watch had been carried away. In reply, the prisoner said—" Your Lordship, this here's a family thing altogether. My father died, at least he was killed—he (lied through accident. Thesehere people came to me one night at Holloway, and says, Your father's half in the road and half in the public-house.' Well, and so I goes and I carries him on my own back. My mother told me afore she died, says she, ' William, when,ever you sees .that 'ere watch you; may take it, as' yon firs v took it from your dead father!''

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARLBORO UGH-STREET. A foreigner, who said he was a courier, was brought be fore Mr. DYER on suspicion of having been concerned in robbing the house of Colonel Barnes, Grosvenor-street, on Tuesday last. A woman entrusted with the care of the house during Colonel Barnes's absence from town said some person, evi dently well acquainted with the house, had contrived to get admission by a latch key, and had gone up stairs to the drawing-room floor, and had carried off a valuable clock, a tea-caddy, and a tin-box, containing, as she believed, papers. Now, the only person whom she could suspect was the pri soner, as he was well acquainted with the house from having lived with Colonel Barnes in the capacity of courier. The prisoner had called just before the robbery to take away something which he had left, and this circumstance induced her to suspect him, as he was the only person that she was aware of who knew the arrangements of the house, and who was in the neighbourhood at the time of the robbery. .The accused asserted his innocence, and said he had the highest testimonials as to character to produce. Mr. DYER remarked that he should be sorry to injure a person's character on such slight evidence as had been pro duced. He should therefore take any respectable person's surety for the attendance of the accused on the folldwing Saturday. Mrs. Jane Harvey complained to Mr. CHAMBERS and the Rev. Mr. THURSBY that she went in grievously bodily fear of one Jo hn Kitchen, a n elderly ' harmless-looking jour neyman tailor. The complainant said she lived next door to the defend ant and his wife, and they had scraped an acquaintance together, each being accustomed to drop into the others' lodgings to talk over a friendly quartern and the news of the neighbourhood. This harmony continued for some t i m e, until one day last week a good-natured gossip called in to tell her in a friendly way that Mr. and Mrs. H., her neighbours, had for some time past been scanmagging her character, and in particular had told everybody, as a very great secret, that she carried on a correspondence not strictly platonic with a certain Bob Hirst, a brawny Life Guardsman. The complainant ran to the next door to ask for an explanation, and while the war of words was raging in walked the defendant, who took a part in the squabble, and among other alarming denunciati ons sw ore on his sleeveboard that one of these odd mornings he would do himself the pleasure of washing both his hands in her " heart's bloo d." Mr. CHAMBERS asked the complainant if she seriously meant to say she believed the defendant would do as he had threatened ? The complainant, thus appealed to, admitted that she did not think the defendant intended anything of the sort, but she wanted him and his wife to be punished for calling her out of her name. Mr. CHAMBERS—We cannot prevent ladies abusing one another. If she called you bad names you must gn to another Court. Now, John Kitchen, what do you say to the charge ? Defendant—l am ready to 'meet the case. I'll state nothing but what is necessary, and I won't occupy your Worship's time by saying one word more than I ought, because I know that your Worship's time ought not — Mr. CHAMBERS—Come to the point at once. Defen dant—Certainly I will. You'll find I'll be as brief as pos sible. About last October twelvemonth, me and my wife— Mr. CHAMBERS—What has this to do with the charge ? Say at once why you threatened this woman. Defendant— I deny the threats. Never said so, or anything like it. I heard that. Mrs. Harvey had been backbiting my wife, and that, you know, sat heavy on my stomach. Mr. CHAMBERS—On your stomach, did it ? Defendant —Yes it did. And as for Bob Hirst, I deny that I said anything but what was true. Mrs. Harvey (handing in a paper)—Here's a proof of my character, your Worship. Mr CHAMBERS (looking, at it) —Why its a certificate of your virtue, signed by your landlady. Here take it back, and take care of it. You hear the defendant don't mean to put his threats in. execution, so I shall discharge the warrant, on payment of the expenses. EXTRAORDINARY SUICIDE. An inquisition was held before Mr. GELL, at the Albion Tavern, Beak-street, Regent-street, on Wednesday after noon, on the body of John M'Kerrell, Esq., a gentleman of large property, formerly holding a high situation in the civil establishment of the East India Company at Madras. Dr. James Johnson had attended the deceased profes sionally for the last four years, and always for the same malady—namely, an extraordinary state of delusion under which he laboured every alternate day, accompanied by most dreadful horrors and depression of mind. He did not feel himself at liberty to mention the precise delusions under which the unhappy gentleman had laboured, as he had made a solemn promise, prior to their being professionally made known to him by the deceased, that 4 would never divulge them to any human being. He migFf , , however, state that they had not the remotest reference to any act of moral guilt, or to any circumstance in which the community could have an interest, but turned on an idle circumstance, equally unimportant to himself and to others, but still were capable of producing a most extraordinary horror of mind. He last saw the deceased on Sunday, the 15th instant, which was one of his " good days," for the deceased used to designate the alternate days ".his good day and his : bad day ;" and it was a most singular fact, that the veg_day on which he committed suicide was one of his " goO days." On his " bed days* he would not see -any on't; not even wit ness. The deceased occupied 'apartinents at Mr. Vie- - kery's, 154, Regent-street, where, when at home, he led a very retired life. He had latterly been absent at Cheltenham, and it was Wordy after his return thence that witness last saw, him,.,.when he enjoined witness not to call again until' the. tenth day ne*t ensuing. The act of suicide was committed on the very day before the 10th. Yesterday morning, in consequence of Mr. Vickery calling en him and making a communication, witness went to the deceased's apartments and found him lying with his clothes on in the :sitting room, with his face downwards, and quite dead. There was an empty phial, labelled, " prussic acid," and an empty wine glass standing on a table close by. Both had evidently recently contained this deadly poison, and from the appearance of the body he had no doubt it was the sole cause of the deceased's death. The delusion was a species of monomania, leaving him on all other points perfectly sane at all times. The malady oc curred with undeviating regularity every alternate day ; whether travelling by sea or by land, or however circum stanced, the deceased declared his attacks were always pre cisely the same as to the period of occurrence and dura tion. They commenced Is hen he woke, and never left him all the day through. The deceased described the disease to have had its rise about four years ago, immediately - after the first election for the Borough of Paisley, when he was a candidate for its representation, but was defeated. It was not so severe at first, but has been gradually increasing in strength ever since. The deceased was a highly educated Gentleman, of very superior intellectual powers. He bad seen very few men equal to him. Doctor Robert Lee, physician, of Golden-square, was called in after the deceased's death, and saw him about seven o'clock the same evening. He had no doubt death was caused by prussic acid. An empty phial and wine-glass which had contained this poison were lying on the table, and by their side was a sealed letter, addressed to Mrs. Vickery, which Mr. Vickery took up and broke the seal, in the presence of witness, and read.—The let ter was here produced. The following is a verbatiM copy " 154, Regent-street, Nov. 24. "My dear Mrs. Vickery,—My mind is so completely un hinged by long suffering, that I have at length determined on committing suicide. I have written to my family to inform them of my intention, and my brother will probably proceed to London as soon as my letter is received. Keep my keys in your possession till his arrival, and then deliver to him my effects. He will settle all my accounts. I wish you and Mr. Vickery health and happiness, and that your family may pros per. I am, truly yours, " J. M'KERRELL. " P. S. As I wish my body, if possible, to be removed to Scotland, do not let it be buried before my brother's arrival." The CORONER expressed his opinion that this was a most_ important letter, and very difficult to be reconciled with the evidence of Dr. Johnson. Mr. Vickery had never any reason to suppose the de ceased insane, except from his strange conduct respecting two projected journeys to Scotland. Witness had been in formed by Major Winbolt and other friends of the deceased that his fortune was not less than 40,0001. a-year. Deceased was a man of rigidly temperate habits. , After some time had been spent in consultation, The CORONER suggested taking the opinions of the Jurors seriatim, for lunacy "or felo de se, when there were found to be 15 fora verdict of lunacy, and five for felo de se. A verdict of suicide, during a state of temporary lunacy, was then recorded. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE• TATTERSALL' S.
