DEURY-TANE THEATRE, Mr. Eliason, enCoura - cred by . the success of the Evening Concerts D'Ete, has beenreduced, at the request of several of his patrons, to try the experinient of giving a morning promenade concert in addition to the usual evening performances. Accordingly, at one o'clock this day the indefatigable Jullien gave the prelimi nary flourish of his baton, and the performances commenced with Rossini's master-piece, the overture to Guillaume Tell. At this time the attendance was rather scanty, but company continued to come in during the whole of the first part, and at its conclusion the audience was such, as we should hope would induce Mr. Eliason to continue these delightful morning entertainments. The theatre was lighted up . and decorated with flowers, &c., precisely as at the evening performances. In addition to overtures, quadrilles, waltzes, &c., we had the whole of Locke's music to Macbeth, admirably performed ; a solo on the Cornet-a-piston by. Herr. Koenig, and an other on the flute by Richardson. Koenig is a model for all solo players. There is nothing like trick or clap trap about his performances, no exhibitions of mere tours de .force, nothing which, while it attracts the ap plause .of the unlearned, makes the learned smile ;• but every thing is done with science, taste, and judgment. Nothing could exceed the manner in which he executed his solo this morning. It is indeed agreat treat to hear this young man, Richardson. The other solo performer of the morning, taking for his theme.the air of 'The Swiss Boy," executed a series of variations of surpdssing brilliancy, and evinced his complete mastery over all the difficulties of his instrument. The theatre, although not cro*ded, was very well attended, and the audience was more select than ati the evening concerts. Altogether, we think we may fairly congratulate Mr. Eliason on the success of his experiment, which, we hope, he will, ere long, he in duced to repeat. ~ SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. GLOBE.—Sir Robert Peel's refusal to disclose his intentions as to the policy he 'intends 'to pursue on the meeting of Parliament,i was praised by the Tiraes as the very perfection of statesmanship. He''" did not want to have. Conservative measures talked about, but to have them caeried," was the justification urged by our Con teinporary in behalf of the expectant PKen - iier's studious concealment of his contemplated.proceedings. The tables are now turned. Rpbert4i'eels matchless wisdom.. is stiddenly convertpd: into consummate folly; anti 'the' boasted strength of the par derived from its numberS .• • and its Unity, is now in danger of disunion, destruct tion, and defeat ! The occasion of this sudden change; from the 10 . triumphe to iaehrymose complainings and' predictions, is found in the arrangenient entered into by Sir Robert Peel, as,the leader of the Tories, by which the Right Hon. G.,Shaw Lefevre is to experience no - opposition to his re-ejection as Speaker of the new Par liament. This, 'the only intimation which Sir Robert Peel has deigned to make as to his future intentions, has spoiled the hopes of the cormorants, who were look ing for a return of the good'old times ; when, regardless of expense to the public, pensions were bestowed on men in every respect fit for service, in order that their posts might be conferred on others, less qualified, but whose am bition must be gratified, or their cupidity satisfied by the exchange. Taking it for granted that theoldregime of Tory ism was to be the governing principle of the proximate Government, the Timei was magniloquent on the Speaker ship. If ever an intention to depart from the "good old rule" was contemplated in any quarter, the Thun derer having uttered his voice, and announced the necessity of displacing Mr. S. Lefevre, Sir Robert Peel must of course succumb to an authority so commanding ; especially as the Standard had declared—doubtless upon competent authority—that " the re-eleetion of Mr. Shaw Letevre was never fur an instant thought of by the Conservatives, who are quite aware that any such step would be taken as a proof of weakness and disunion of their party !" With one ex ception, the whole Conservative Press either ridiculed` the idea as improbable, or denounced it as mischievous. The Times, regarding the removal of Mr. S. Lefevre as a settled thing, strenuously urged its necessity, that it might claim the credit of having effected it. Sir Robert Peel has confounded the oracles : though he has not stricken them dumb, he has again changed their lauds tions of himself into reproaches, and has set them at loggetheads among themselves. UOVRIER.—Our friend of the ilerald was yest er d a y , , ratner triumphantly jocose at our expense in. the matter of the Speaker of the new House of Commons, that is to be. Our readers will remember that, we, introduced them some 'days since to an official corps spic-and-span new from the laboratory of our respected Contemporary, on which occasion we took leave to object to some of the agencies employed in the compound, or rather, perhaps, we ought to say in strictness, to the proportions in which each were made to enter into the composition of the whole Raring our reasonable misgivings respecting the veritable character of this prescribed officiality in some of its parts, ive did not hesitate to signalise' our objections ; and cirnorigt others, we intimated very strong 'suspicions that the Speakership of the new House of Commons would not be disposed of and continued in the person of Mr, Shaw Lefevre. We gave our rea sons moreover on subsequent occasions why such a nomination would be, not distasteful only, but disad vantageous to the Members who constitute the majority of the House about to assemble ' - and whilst rend er i ng justice in courteous, and, we hope, unexcepti ona ble' terms, to the past demeanour and services of the gen tleman in question, we did not hesitate to intimate our doubts .whether ho eonld safely 13. = Pntri,qied hit tV,o absolute authority now vested in the chair for nomi nating the first and virtually all other Committees for the trial-ofclispated elections. - Our friend of the Herald appeared subsequently to be infected With some suspi cions about the authenticity of his own statement, the responsibility of which was then,adroitry disclaimed and discharged upon the head of some respectable and un known (that is unpublished) Correspondent. Now, how ever, that one of the, prognostications haiarded has turned out a prophecy fulfilled, our Contemporary exultingly appropriates all the if not of second si g ht e d ness , at'least of superior penetration, to himself, and leaves the original diScoverer with almost as little scruple in the back-ground- as Americus Irespusius when he made free to give his name to a world whose existence was first proclaimed by Columbus.

( From the London New Price. Current of August 6.) SuOart.-There has been a considerable falling off in the demand for British PlantatiCin Sugar this week; and the market has been in a dull state ; the great increase in the comparative stocks of Sugar subject to - the 24s duty, and the large shipments that rre making at Calcutta for this market have caused both grocers and refiners. to, purchase very sp ar in g ly,. an d al though tlie ; merchants have submitted to a repuc tion, on Former rates of Is, per ctvt, still the - quantity disposed of for the, three market days has been only 600 hhds and tis ; there have been no public sales. ,To 7 day the market for Weit India presented a quiet aspect,, refiners as, well as grocers oper a t e d w ith muc h cantion, and the limited business done was at prices in favour .of buyers, making the decline for the week is to is 6d,per cwt. and the total purchases only 800 hhds and tierces ;_the greater decline has again been on the info, rior sorts. • REFINED.-For refined goods this week, prices have fnrther given way Is per cwt, Standard Lumps at 93s a 93s 6d.

The demand has been dull for Bas tards and Pieces ; the former we quote 13s to 15s, and the latter 16s to 20s per cwt. Dutch Crushed Sugar at 28s on board at Amsterdam. MAURITIUS.-This afternoon the trade operated with caution, and at the public sale of 5,141 bags, 149 bar rels, &c., the biddings were languid, and . prices further declined Is per cwt ; fine yellow sold at 63s to 655, good mid and good 59s to 625, 'mid 57s to 58s, low dark brown 38s 6d to 40s, low to mid 43s 6d to 49s 6d, good to fine 51s 6d to 55s per cwt.

TEA.-This- has been a week of great excitement in the. Tea market. Tne furious edict issued by the Em peror of China against the English, and the reduced stocks of Tea in this country, caused both the trade and speculators to come forward with increased freedom, and for both black and green descriptions of Free Trade Tea the demand has been extensive ; all the parcels offered for sale have been disposed of, the prices paid are 2:}-4. to 3d per lb, above ails Oily ; Common Uongou in large par cels for cash has been disposed of at 2s 6d to 2s 6: 4 1 .d, blackish leaf rather strong 2s 7d to 25'74-d ; Twanhay ordinary, 2s sial to.2s 6d ; Hyson, common, 2s 9d to 2s 10d, and ordinary Snuchong 2s 2d to 2s 4d p e r Ib, upon which term same of the mercants will noi,sell there being every appearance, according to the last accounts received frinn China, that the season's supply. of Tea has been lost, and that which will got out will be surreptitiously. Seve ral orders this.week have been prevented from being exe-, tited owing to the want of parcels offering for sale : the total stock at all the ports is only adequate to ten months consumption, The speculative market has been brisk, and in Comp an y' s C on g ou an extensive business has been transacted at advanced rates ; at one period sales of Com pany's for cash were made it 2s 7i -d to 2s 8d with short prompts, but yesterday prices declined to 2s Id to 2s 7,-fd cash. The stock at all the ports is now only 30,000,00 lbs, of which - 6,000,000 cannot be consumed in this country, and 11,000,0001bs are held by.the trade and speculators, &c., consequently the quantity available is only 13,000,0001b5. For public sale on Tuesday 9,000- pkgs are declared. At the principal Foreign markets stocks ure small, and prices rule high. To-day a good demand existed for common sorts of Free Trade Tea, and prices were firm, Gongou at 2s. 6d. to 2s. 64-d., and Twankay 2s. 6d. per lb. but in the better kinds there was not much business done ; the rates previously established have been fully supported ; Company's Congou met with attention, and a good many purchases were made at 2s 7id cash, at which the market close firmly. COFFEE.-The trade has been anxious to purchase all clean descriptiona of British Plantation Coffee this week, but the supply being small, has materially operated against business, and the parcels disposed of privately have been at an advance on last waek's rates of 2s to 3s per cwt, mid kinds however were-the most in request. To-day the market presented a firm 'appearance, and the demand was good from the home trade. The public sales consisted of 373 bags Ceylon, 64 casks 95 ba gs Porto Rico from th e C a p e , 40 casks British Plantation, 300 bales Mocha, and 477 bags East India of various sorts ; Ceylon sold briskly at a further advance of Is, good ordinary pale went at 755, good or dinary dingy coloury 76s 6d to 775, Porto Rico went at an advance of 4s to ss, middling, in casks at 63s 6d to 655, fine and fine fine ordinary in bags 59ss to 625.

It is at present on the premises of Mr. Adam F. Smith. It seems a connecting link between three very different zoological genera. It has the head of the ox, the body of a goat, and the tail of a horse. Its osteology differs from that of the ox, having one more rib. The cold climate of which it is a native, its resting-place being among the snow, renders Calcutta particularly trying to the auimal. It is a mere object of curiosity, but . on the same premises Mr. Huffnagle has four Lepcha cows from Darjeling, which we consider likely to improve our breed of lowland cattle far more permanently and effectively than any importation which has yet been made. A bull of the same stock would be a still more valuable gift to the vicinity. These cows have the slightest possible rudi ment of a hump, and the ears are rather large, thin, and pendulous, as in the Nagore breed, otherwise in frame, .in fineness of head, lightness of bone, and supe riority of udder, they Approach closely to some of our best English breeds. To look it the black cows, a ca sual observer would conclude that they were e the best kind of the Welch breed; whilst the one which is brindled white and brown, looks much like a Devonshire. They. are altogether a most promising source whence to derive improvement to our Bengalee cow and ox.; and we hope Huffnagle will fully carrye out his intention of breed ing from these cows, not only ?by a Nagore but Eng lish bull, and „our desire is still greater. that a Lipcha bull should be brought • to the'Presideney. ' We saw the cows during the hottest period-Of the dhy, and, though in not the best sheltered of sheds, they did . not seem to .suffer from the heat 1 - whilst the - yak, though in . a much cooler place, was panting extremely.--Cnlctqta Courier, May 22. _ _ • - . . .

LADIES AND BISHOPS. —lt is observed that a college lad, what is called a hobble-de-boy (i. e. " hombre delioy," Spanish " man of to-day"), is apt, to claim the privileges both of youth, and manhood ; if he commit some mischievous prank, which is taken up seriously, he appeals at once to his tender years, " Ci! it is only a boyish frolic :" if coerced by strict rules, he claims to be treated as a man.

COURT OF • BANKRUPTCY, Aug. 4 (Before Mr. Commissioner FANE.) IN THE MATTER AF BELDON AkD MANN. The bankrupts formerly carried on business as wine and spirit merchants in Water-lane, Great Tower-street. Thiscase, which has created considerable interest, came on this day for further investigation, when the bankrupt Mann again surrendered to pass his adjourned final exa mination, Which had been postponed from the 21st of July ; Seldon at that time was allowed to pass. At the last meeting it was alleged that the banicrur t Mann withheld various books of great importance, with a view to the concealment of property. He gave an ex planation before Mr. Commissioner Fonblanque that he concluded these books were either in the hands of their hte traveller, who had been in possession of various do cuments for a considerable time, relating to the business, or that, when an exec u ti on was pl ace d i n th e ware h ouse by the Sheriffs in November last, they had been mislaid or lost. Thomas Gilling, the person in question, restored the missing books to the official assignee, thus exonerating the bankrupt. The liabilities were heavy, but many creditors held securities upon Mann's private estate, and otherwise which would amply repay ;"those who did did not hold security caused the bankruptcy.. 'Mr. KEANE urgently pressed for the passing of his client, and made a powerful appeal in his favour. Mr. Keane also stated that, however imprudent the bankrupt might hire been in disposing of a large sum of money which he h a d r e ceived f or th e sa l e o f an estate, relative .to which this day- he had undergone a most strict inves tigation, he was much to be pitied, as the bankrupt had -been completely ruined by innumerab:e law-suits, and various other matters, which had absorbed a much larger amount than Mann had embarked in business ; in fact,' his total loss was computed at 3,0001. Mr. Keane was prepared to show, and submitted, that. no blame whatever' could be attributed to . Mann whom he represented: Mr: POLLOCK, who attendedTer the creditors, Still . per sisting in his objections, ' • Mr. Commissioner PINE' adjourned the case,, until Tuesday next, by which ,time he hoped the bankrupt Mann would be enabled; to provide more clear and Satipfactoq account, and produce vouchers..for the- dis position of the cash lie.hatl received:in-January last. „ ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE,- • :ROME- ;CIRCUIT.--ILewes, August 4. J'arnes Clark, a railway labourer, was hitlidied for a capi tal offence upon LfiCy short. • Mr. Clarkson conducted the prosectition,'andle de scribed-the case as - one of an extraordinary-and aggra-• vated character, and he obLerved, at the same time, that although the Legislature had s:Tii fit to abolish the eapi tal punishment for offences of this'descriptioni that altera tion would not . come . inte 'effect fOr some Weeks, and, in point of fact. the life of therisoner was at stakeln the present inquiry. It appeared from the evidence that the prosecutrix a very sickly young woman, twenty-years Of age, was left in charge of some younger children in her father's cottage at West Hoathly on the 13th July- last, and in,the middle of the day the prisoner and another man _named Robert Tandy, came to. : the house and asked the prose cutrix to give them some cabbages, but she said she must not do it as her father would scold her if she did. With out any thing more being said, the prisoner Clark seized the poor girl, dragged her with great violence into an adpining- wash-house, and having locked the door, com mitted the offence imputed to him. He then called on the other man Timely-, and he also assaulted the girl. The Jury fotind the prisoner Guilty. Robert Tandy, 31', was then indicted, capitally, for his share in the same transaction. The evidence was to the same effect as that adduced in the last case, and the Jury also returned a verdict of. Guilty. James Macdonald, 38, was indicted for a similar offence upon Jane Langridge. Mr. Tindall conducted the prosecution. The prosecutrix in this case was eighty-five years of age, and on the 23d of last April she was lying on her bed, Very poorly, and while in that position the prisoner who is a tramp, and gets his living by vending ballads about the country, forced his way into the use and committed the offence. The Jury found him , Guilty. Chief Justice TINDAL then ordered the three prisoners to be placed at the bar, and after observing upon the enormity of the offence they had committed, and the ag gravated circumstances connected with them, ordered that judgment df death should be recorded against them, but he said that although their lives would be spared, the y would be transported for the remaining period of their existence. CHESTER AND NORTH WALES CIRCUIT. August 3 ' (Before Mr. Justice ERSKINE) THE STOCKPORT MURDER.' CASES—CONVIC TION OF A FATHER FOR POISONING HIS CHILD. , Robert Sandys and . Ann, his rift, were this morning placed at the bar, charged with the. wilful murder of Elizabeth Sandys, their daughter, an infant only six months old, at Stockport, in this county, on the 24th ..of September last. The prisoners were two' Of 'them. ac quitted yesterday on a charge' of poisoning Mary Ann .Sandys, also their daughter. The. ATTORNEY-GENERAL (with whom was Mr. Townsend) stated the case to the Jury. Mr. WELSBY, the prisoners' counsel, then took an ob jeCtion the forM of the indictment. He contended that the clinic with which the piisoners stood charged was not sufficiently described, for after stating that they had administered to the deceased a certain deadly poison called arsenic, whereby she became mortally - sick and distempered in her body, it went on to state, ".of which said mortal sickness she, the said Elizabeth Sandys, died." It did not aver that she died` of the poison. His Lordship would find that all the precedents required an averment that the death was caused by.the.poison.so ad-. ministered. A lengthened ilrgitthent ensued-.0n., the point; in: the course of which the Learned JUDGE observed that the indictment stated that the mortal sickness was produced by poison, and the sickness caused the death. Nothing short of a direct authority would induce him to decide in favour of the , objection,. because, . if he was wrong, the partieS : might escape punishment . altogether. It was, however, extremely • dangerous to "attempt to shorten common law indictments, or to alter them so as to make the wording More like common sense ; the safest course was strictly to follow the precedents: Mr. TOwNsEND produced vol. 2 of Moodv's Crown Cases, the very last preced( nt, in a case tried before all the Judges, which had in the present instance been strictly followed. The Learned JUDGE, after looking at several autho rities on the subject, said he would leave the case for Mr. Welsby hereafter to move in arrest of judgment, if it should be found necessary. The evidence was then proceeded with. It occupied se veral hours, and was in substance similar to that adduced in the former trial. It appeared that on the 7th June the male prisoner entered the deceased a member of the Philan thropic Burial Society . ; that on the 6th of September following he made inquiries as to whether she was en titled, to the benefit of the Society in case of death. Ile was told she was not. The following week he made simi lar inquiries, and was told she then was. On the 20th the deceased was seen by a neighbour very ill, and the pri soners said she had been ill about a fortnight. On the 24th she died, and was buried the following day, the male prisoner having in the meantime received 31.85. 6d., the allowance of the Society. He also gave two different ac counts of her illness to the registrar and the sexton of the Roman Catholic Chapel, where she was buried. Suspicions arising on the 17th of October, the body was disinterred, examined, and ,arsenic found in the stomach. The appearances also proved that she had died of poison. The mother of the deceased averred that the deceased had not taken any food from any one but herself and her husband. Mr. WELSBY addressed the jury at great length, con tending that the case amounted to nothing more , than one of strong suspicion, and therefore the jury ought to giye the prisoners the benefit of the doubt in which it was in volved.. The Learned JUDGE having summed up, The jury retired, and, after an..hour's consultation, found Robert Sandys Guilty, and acquitted the other prisoner. . . . . -.- Tilc. JUDGE ordered him to be retained in.custody mi til the .nest assizes, in consequence. of it motion for an arrest of judgment.

Robert Fisher, aged 19, was convicted of stealing, at Clapham a pair of clogs, the property of 'Thomas Hart, and was sentenced to two months' imprisonment. James Crane, 32, and Stephen Tayior, 31, were in dicted for feloniously stealing, at Chobham, a quantity of turf, the property of Edmund Nicholls. The prisoners pleaded—Not guilty. It appears . that the inhabitants of Chobham have . a right of cutting turf on Chobham Common, but, accord ing to the custom of the Manor, no turf can be sold off the Common to any but an inhabitant of Chobhant pariah. Mr. Nicholls, the prosecutor, had, at the begin ning of July, employed one. of his workmen, named Collyer, to cut and stack some turf for him- on the coinir.on. On, going the next morning to the Common, ColVer, and another of the servants of Mr. Nicholls, dis cviered that during the night several of the turfs had neen removed in a waggon, which they tracked for ten mileS to the f a rm-yard o f Mr. Willis, at Egham, where I they, found a waggon unloading turf. Mr. Willis stated . that he had bargained with the two prisoners for two loads of turf, for which he was to pay 3s. 6d. a load, and that the prisoners had told him that he must send his own cart; for them at night, for it was not exactly al lowable to. sell turf off the Common to persons not re siding in the parish. He had accordingly sent them to arrange with his carter; named Cotter, and the prisoners and Cotter had gone to the Common, and loaded the turf, which was ready cut and cocked in the spot where Col•. lyer had cut it. The prisoners and Cotter had returned with the turf to Mr. Willis's. .On Collyer claiminr , the turf, as -Mr. Nicholls's property, Mr. Willis itnmediately offered to pay the regular price, and gave him a so verereign. Oa his- cross-examination, Mr. Willis said that ho "had always before paid 6s. or Bs. a load for turf,. and that it struck hiin that this was remarkably eh:IP- He admitted that he had a6ted tastily in purchasing the - ' turf when the men had told him it was not allowable to. sell turf• Put of the pgikh. " • • The prisoners received a good character. It was also stated that they had each large families, and were .ou'.; of work at the time, and in great distress in consequence. The egAIRMAN, in summing up, commented most se verely on the conduct of Mr. Willis, and intimated that there ought to have been three prisoners at the bar in stead of two. The Jury, having consulted together for a short time, returned the following verdict :—" We find the prisoners guilty, but we are of opinion that they acted as they did from the inducement held out to them by Mr. Willis ; and we think that if justice had been done, Mr. Willis would have been placed alongside the prisoners. We beg to recommend them to the merciful consideration of the Court." " They were then sentenced to seven days' imprison ment in solitary confinement. The CHAIRMAN then called up Mr. Willis, and, after having cautioned him as to his future conduct, told him that the Court could not think of allowing him his ex- . penses. Mr. Willis expressed a desire to say a few words in his justification, and said that he had been influenced by no ill intention in what he had done ; and that when he had discovered that the turfs had been stolen, he had afforded every facility in his power to the prosecution. The CHAIRMAN said he was exceedingly sorry that a person occupying the respectable . situation in life which Mr. Willis did should have given his evidence in such a manner.

" I have the honour to be, Sir, your most hiunble servant, " ROBERT M'COR MICK, late Sth Scots, B.A.L. " To Captain Roberts, B. A.L." Captain Roberts stated that the complainant was a private in the Lancers, of the British Auxiliary Force, who served under General Evans in Spain, and upon the dissolution of that force Scott retired to Belfast, in Ireland, where he worked for some time as . a wood turner, until he met with an accident, by which he lost the use of one of his hands. Some time after the acci dent, an _advertisement appeared in the London Journals as well as the provincial ones, and also placards signed " Alexander Somerville," stating that he was an agent for the recovery of gratuities and pay due by . the Spanish Government to the British Legion, and which was secured under the Convention of both countries; he undertook not only to recover the amount, but make them an advance. Sir P. LAURIE—Was this the Somerville that made, such a noise 'at the Reform .Bill, and figured away in the Scots Greys.? Captain Roberts said that it was, and proceeded to state that every soldier on his discharge, obtained certificates for his gratuities and pay, which being indorsed by the holders, were transferable. Scott, on seeing Somerville's handbills in Belfast, applied to him by letter, to which he received the following answer " 13th Jan.,1841, 4, Brydges-street, Strand, London, " Stn,--I beg to acknoWledge the receipt of your.let-- ter, and have to say that I can do nothing with your cer tificates until I see them, and have submitted them to the judgment. of the Spanish Com Missioner who is appointed to examine them.

Sir P. LAURIE—It appears that there . has been most extraordinary dealings in these certificates. Captain ltobertg—Most shameful. 1 know where one person holds 9001. of those certificates, composed entirely of the two months' and six months' gratuities, the former 3/. and the latter 91., for which a mere trifle was given. And the publicans, Jews, and crimps of Portsmouth obtained hundreds of them for a pot of beer, or a gloss of gin. . Sir P. LAURIE—Oh, shocking, shocking ! Captain Roberts—And I know that one physician, at the west end, holds 15,000/. worth, purchased through an agent. 614. r. LAURIE—WeII, I think as those parties have creditably come forward to meet the charge, and as they are respectable people, they will give to Scott anything they made by the purchase of the certificates. Mr. Hopkins and Mr. Williams having agreed to do so, Sir P. LAURIE inquired what became of Somerville ? Captain Roberts said that it was reported that he was i p the Isle of Man, and begged to say that as the casewould no doubt,go before the public, he did not, in the most re: mote way, impute anything improper to Messrs. B°Ps kins, Gilbert, and Baud ry. s Sir P. LAURIE perfectly concurred in the observation, and congratulated Capt. Roberts on the victory he had achieved.—The parties then left the office. GREENWICH POLICE. • Cha p el ' Greenwich, two gentlemen, trustees . to - Union Greenwich, applied to Mr. Grove for advice under the :following.. circumstances : The applicants stated, that at a meeting of the trustees, held some time since, it was determined that the s erviee s of certain musical gentlemen who had officiated in t h l orchestra of the chapel should be.. dispensed with, an; notice of such resolution was forwarded to each. d gentleman, however, in opposition to such .resolution. au, ,agr,inst the expressed wish of the congregation, persiste' in intruding himself into,the orchestra and playing a °tite : Two letters had been forwarded -to him requesting to desist desist from such annoyance, but to no purpose, for regular as the Sunday came there were the g • ertlelus° and the flute. • Mr. GROVE said it .Was a , :strange ease- 1 .- le believet however, that the trustees possessed the same power t r„. cle , tyrnan,. who Could prevent any person from si u g lii ; in his church. It would be better to give the intruder formal notice signed by ail the trustees, also to OW' ? " of the - servants of the chapel et the door of theorchesals ' the° to prevent the gentleman from entering, and if he s . persisted or made any, disturbance, to give hiM into cu . . _. tody. c'ce• The applicants thanked the Magistrate for his 1 , - - she which they declared they 'would. act upon, and left Court, - - CURIOUS AND INTERESTING GEOLOGICe DISCOVERY.—A few drys since,' some workmen ( 7.: ployed in raising stone from one•of the lias quarries $ Brockridge-common, made a discovery, fourteen fr. from the surface, of what they called the " bones ° d. fish," and of which they gave information to Mr. Pu t . field, of Tewkesbury, who immediately proceeded W t spot, and, found it to be,on examination, the fossil r e ; mains of an ichthyosaur's, or fish lizard. Mr. P., of Dg" much care, patience, and labour, succeeded in Pint e f„ ri t i - te it, had it safely conveyed to . his house, and upon fib— to examination and carefnl, cleaning; had the satisfactio3 a find that he had obtained one of the most beautiful ' r , an d perfect fossil skeletons of this extraordinary ant edilu animal this country affords. This magnificent speellitebe, measures 6 feet 10 inches in length,.having the. how, • whole of the spine, consisting of-upwards of•100_,/ecerr tebrm, with many of the spinal processes, the tai l P e fine even to the smallest point, two of the paddles orb quite . perfect, and a considerable portion of a third, i'v_ te delic t ; s% the scapular, many of the ribs, and some very small bones near the tail, which render it pr se the animal had an appendage there, probably u sed aso rudder, which will excite the interest and of _scientific _scientific men, as they have been hitherto unnetie eu undescribed.—Chelienhara Chronicle.
