MORNING EDITION. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS.. FROM THE DAILY PAPERS OF SATURDAY. CIIIONICLE.—In the ensuing elections the eonstitr i encies will not only have to decide for or against the Mini: i tcrial policy of increased revenue without new taxation, al id of the abolition of monopoly, but they will also have to decide between the Sovereign and the Peel-majority of o; le in the present Parliament. On the point of confidem or no confidence in the anti-monopoly Ministry, ht .v Majesty and the Tory majority are at issue. Her Majesty's confidence in her official advisers is undimini , hed. This is; evinced by the fact of her dissolving the Parliament on their advice. It is the strongest testimony that royalty can give the, public. There would have been nothing exceptionable or un constitutional in the dismissal cf Ministers after the late votes against them and their policy. Indeed, had the Sovereigns coincided with the majority of one, Ministers ought tes have bees dismissed. Her Majesty does no sucht thing. She appeals to the people. Every loyal subject is in- - vited to aid in the resne of his Queen from having Ministers: forced upon her who are not entitled to her preference, nor • jilessed of het confidence. Had they been so, the dissolu-. •.vould have been rendered wholly unnecessary ; or, at any rate, would have been postponed until after their investment with the powers of office. The election is a Royal appeal to the people. It is her Majesty's protest against a Tory and Mo nopoly tiovernment. With the spirit in which such a Govern ment, should it ever be formed, must needs be conducted, the Queen has already had one quarrel ; and a most honourable one for her frankness of nature, perspicacity of intellect, and in genousness of character. We refer to her Majesty's refusal, trvr years ago, to be degraded into Sir Robert Peel's agent for the daily assertion of a practical falsehood. Her moral being recoiecl. oa that occwion, from deluding the people by a of confidenco in the appointnionts of the hotvehohl, • ,he did not feel; and which, :IA; f.•eling, it would have • ing,tinoes sr to expr,ss Jritt iii , c.. Wile•her that :y r oorisy, so congenial with Peon ic.dicy, though so r:,,r to a sincere nature, is to to: cerl upon her now, ~• •sic linse to decide ; ant the; Oecide i% by the sort whom they return to the next Parliament. But •i only a portion of the great question. The Queen's , Ifi'fence is plainly, by the fact of the impending dissolution, ;he anti-monopolists. The people's cause is her cause. Her name is in a happier cornl4nation than often happens to royal name - .; in popular struggles. It is, the Queen and no monopoly; the Queen and no fresh taxes; the Queen and cheap bread ; the Queen and free trade. As in the earlier periods of our history, as in the contests of the Plantagenets, the Sovereign and the people have now a common cause against an insolent and rapacious oligarchy, that would tramp'.e upon both. TRIES.—The crude, precipitate, and blundering measures which Ministers have been attempting during the last fortnight to palm upon the country as of sufficient urgency and import ance to justify a postponement of the promised dissolution of Parliament, are now under process of dissection in the House of Lords. it is the usual office of that assembly to bring Whig legislaticn to the test of constitutional knowledge and common sense ; and from the discharge of that duty it is not likely to be shaken by any indecent importunity. On Thursday the " Bribery at Elections Bill," which, as our readers will remem ber, vs as forced by Lord John Russell through the House of Commons, af'er Sir Robert Peel had left the House upon the aesnrance that it should not be proceeded with, was most felicitously exposed, and torn to shreds and tatters by Lord Brougham. The only part of it which Lord Normanby could succeed in rescuing from the fate justly due to so singular a specimen of charlatanism and imposture, was the last clause, the object of which, (being merely to direct Election Com mittees how to receive evidence and frame their reports in cases of alleged bribery), might have been quite as effectually secured by a simple resolution of the House of Commons as by an Act of Parliament. On the same evening Lord Abinger and Lord Wicklow rebuked "the manifest impropriety of send ing ue to that House the Punishment of Death Bill, a mea sure requiring the most deliberate consideration, within two days, of the end of the Session ;" and the Peers of Great ilsitair, resolved, with dignified calmness, not to suffer them selves to be betrayed into any hasty decision of so serious a essestinn as whether rape should continue to be punished as a capital offence. While this measure was under discussion, certain expressions are reported to have beer, used by Lord Penman, which we think it is our duty to notice, if only for the sake of declarin g our conviction that such language can not possibly have fallen from the Chief Justice of Eng land without some material qualification which does not appear. What the Noble and Learned Lord is reported to have said is this—that " he approved of the alteration of the law, because he did not like that such cases should come before a Jury, as they now did, in the alternative. Do you choose to commit perjury, or to commit what you be lieve to be murder? Juries now felt horror at the idea of depriving individuals, however guilty, of life." That senti ments so atrocious, sophistry so pernicious, and immorality so shameless, should have been spoken of by the Lord Chief Justice, as commonly influencing English Juries, without so much as a protest against their wickedness, and that the prevalence of such sentiments should have been recognised in rich a quarter as a sufficient Legislative ground for lowering she standard of punishments, is more than we are capable of believing. HERALD.—Lord John Russell ,commences his canvass for the representation of the City of London under no very favourable auspices. A discardedservant " going after a place" —with an introduction in his hand, which turns out to be a strong certificate of his past misconduct under the hand of an indignant master, would cut, we may surmise, a sorry figure when informed of the contents of the billet which he had de livered into the hands of the individual whom he had ealrerly expressed his anxiety to serve. We doubt whether the Noble Lord feels himself under a much more agreeable surprise at the significant proofs which he is every day receiving of the con struction that the citizens of London put upon those eminent toetimonials to character, as an eligible servant for their " situation," which he has been rash enough to deliver, open, to the livery, in his memorable expose of those truce treasons against British agriculture, British com merce, and British greatness,—the schemes for repealing the protection on our home-grown corn, our colonial grown timber, and our colonial raised sugars. That German prefessor who published, the other day, so amusing . a narra tive of his visit to England, and his communications with English society,—we forget at the moment whether it was Von Reaumer or M. Wagner, (we see as we write the name that it must have been the latter,)—declares that he inferred from his first glance at Lord John Russell's countenance that he was a very cunning man. What will he say, in a note on that passage, in the next edition of his work, to the false step that noble person has taken in appealing to the livery of thin capital ? Well I Lord John's warmest friends do not affect to deny that his speech at the London Tavern was one of the tamest, the most powerless and the least effective which ever was pronounced by any man who had made a pilgrimage from St. Stephen's to St. Paul's.. But here has been a meeting— and to that meeting here has been submitted a report, which will fearfully aggravate the case of Lord John Russell's incom petency and the delinquency of his Government,—in all that regards the commercial policy of the adhesives. POST.—We do not suppose there is any man in England, above the condition of absolute imbecility, as far as regards po litical affairs, who believes that the present Ministers have now, or ever had, the slightest chance of carrying the measures which the Chancellor of the Exchequer proposed to the House of Commons as part of his budget scheme. The Ministers have themselves confessed that they knew they had no such chance with the House of Commons which still remains un dissolved. But they know quite as well, though they may not have confessed it, that they have just as little thence with the next House of Commons. They know that, even if they gained all the elections which they pretend that they hope to gain, they would still be quite un able to carry those measures. There is about as much proba bility that they will gain all these elections, as there is that Lord John Russell will be Lord Mayor of the City of London oa the 9th day of November next ensuing ; but, supposing they were gained, still, we say, these measures could mot be carried, and the Ministers very well know that they could not. They cannot help knowing that the Ministerial can didates, at forty different places—candidates for whose return Treasury Money and Treasury influence arc zealously ould not support any measure for repealing the present Corn laws, and substituting a low fixed duty in their stead. Whatever may happen then, this one thing it is certain cannot happen, namely,the return of a House riding to agree to the Minis terial proposition regarding the Corn-laws. And/et there are persons who, s p ea ki ng on b e h a lf o f th ese b ea t en Misailters, have the effrontery to tallcof the great cause in which tt*y are em barked. What can !signore gross and i.npudent than such an attempt at delusion ? If their cause be the new measures pro posed in Mr. Baring's budget, that they well know is mere humbug. It is nut within the limits of possibility that they should be able successfully to uphold that cause, and they themselves are most a nx i ous t o accom pli s h suc h re t urns to Par liament as must be its ruin. What, then, is their great cause ? 'What is the grand object of their pursuit? It is to obtain a House of Commons that will reverse the condemnation which the present House has passed upon them. GLOBE.—The first Royal Speech, if we recollect right, in the reign of George the Third, contained an -cri•ession of thanksgiving for restored cheapness and lieut.?, amongst his people. Our present Sovereign (the anniversary of whose accession to the throne recurs to morrow, is the first Monarch, since her Royalgrand father, who can wish cheapness and plenty to her people with a good conscience of having done all in her power to procure it for them. There would have been something very like solemn mockery in repeating the language of George the Third in the subsequent reigns, when laws were passed, or maintained, to substitute dearness and scarcity for cheapness and plenty. Her Majesty is as wise as her grandfath er on the most essential point to the well-being and happin ess of her subjects ; and, if she reign so long, will, we doubt not, reign no less generally in the hearts of her subjects than ekeor,ge the Third did, in many respects deservedly, and in no respect more so tha n in his g ood fee l ings for the macs of his subjects, which were shown in his wishes for their general education, as well as their plentiful eusl enence. We trust her Majesty's reign will be less ciitsoliered in its measures and fortunes ; we are sure at least no sinister bias is likely to proceed from the Throne. The natural position of a Sovereign is on the side of the people, when less extended and legitimate in terests seek their promotion at its cost. It matters little whether the oppression be feudal or fiscal : the Monarch has aided the people against the one, and may yet against the other. STANDARD.—We request the attention of our readers to the able article on the probable result of the cesning elections, which we have copied from the Tines. It will be s een by that article, that the most sengliine ea . ic . lation of the Whig Mini:tens ;slows a clear majority u..thirty tc) the C onserv ative party - . Y. - L . ! pecan by whom this calculation has been made (he ie not named by the Times) is Mr. Secretary Stanley, the official whipper-in. And we will add (what is, liowever, incredible), that upon the hypoth es i s o f a Conservative , majority of thirty, it is intended by the Whig-Radical Ministers to attempt still retaining office u pon the Quests. The Conservative majority practisin g rityesillbe, however, a great deal more than 30 —almost certainly more than twice 30. This must be apparent from Mr. Stanley's calculation, which allows 30, even assuming' a Whig- Radical gain in Ireland of 9, excluding any chance of loss in Scotland, and relying upon the safety of the four City seats, and the seats f or Westminster. Now, instead of a Whig Radical gain i n I re l an d of n i ne, there is no doubt of a Conservative ga i n o f at l east n i ne ' in that island ; in Scotland a Conservative gain is equally certain ; and we are pretty well assured of securing the greater part, if not all, of the London and Westminster seats. Sixty we firmly believe to be a low estimate of the Conservative majority ; and however Ministers and their friends may flatter them :,eiies, and try to deceive the public with words and ngiures, practically they t es tify a p er f ect consc i ousness teat a discomfiture awaits them, as signal as that of the Whigs in 1807, or o f the Tories in 1831. This con scioueness is shown in the flight, resembling . rather a rout than a retreat, the counties and of tne host of W-hrig-lladicitls from some degree i boroughs of England and Wales, and in Ireland ; it is rom counties and boroughs i n S eot l,,nd and m ovement of so ra nc't le" plainly exhibited in the h urr i e d their yezizhisg or .sny of the Ministers th emse l ves f rom be I) "'llingeStreet to more perma.• neat stations in the colonies and elsewhere. It is alto gether a sauce qui pent movement. COURIER.—One of the evening Treasury organshas a foolish story about the City election, to the following por tentous effect :—" A HINT FROM THE CITY.—The Tories, who. before the appearance of Lord John Russell in the field, boasted that they would be able to carry their four candidates for the city of London, are now desirous to effect a compromise. Their canvassers say that they have no objection to so old a representative and locally useful a Member as Alderman Wood, and that they find the feeling runs so strong in favour of Lord John Rus sell that it is useless to oppose him ; but they canvass the Liberal electors for their other two votes, begging for at least a share in the representation. Another damper to the hopes of the monopolists is found in the fact, that although Alderman Pirie has allowed his name to be used as a candidate, he has openly de clared that he will take no trouble about the matter, not even so much as to solicit the vote of a single elector." This slip-slop talk would not be worth notice, but for the opportunity it affords of stating that the Conservative canvass and certainty of carrying the election for the City could not possibly be more triumphantly satisfactory. So far from the fact is it that any desire for a " com promise " is manifested that, on the contrary, offers of the sort, more or less direct, from the opposite party, have been repeatedly and contemptuously rejected. Al though far from wishing to encourage, by noticing, an -immoral practice, or moreover, from considering the -fact as decisive in character, we may be excused for mentioning that, although three days ago, the betting was two to one in favour of Lord .Tolta Russell (alone) being returned, yet, for the last day or two, as much as _fifteen to one have been the current marketable quotations that the whole four Conservative candidates would be elected—and no mistake. Absolute Wisdom, we ob- Jerve, is reported to have said it a meeting on Thursday evening, that " they (the Conservatives) knew that they, the Liberals, would be undoubtedly successful." Now we do not like the idea of taking advantage of an after dinner speech of this worthy Alderman, for, according to the report stated, he " had just been dining with the Skinner's Company," but, if he yet soberly holds to the same assertion, we will wager him a pocket of hops against all he will get under Jemmy Wood's will—nil -perhaps by the bye, and therefore tremendous odds — that he and his colleagues sit for London city the last time, and that Lord John will be sent to Coventry, as Devon before transpoz:Lal him to Stroud. _MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF SATURDAY. CHRONICLE.—We decline all notice or controversy under ;this head, of mere matters of election. If the monopolists, :therefore, think they can derive any advantage from the degra elation of the City article of their leading journal into a mere channel for electioneering purposes, they are welcome to it, and 410 enjoy the full benefit, for our part, unmolested. We :shall continue to direct our attention to matters more legiti mately connected with the Money Market, and to that descrip ion of City news which may be supposed likely to carry some portion of general interest, as bearing upon the finance, the ttrade, and commerce of the nation. The field is wide and Barge enough to afford us ample materials for remark, with out trespassing on the business of other fellow-labourers in the vineyard. We have devoted some articles lately more parti cularly to the banking interests, for the purpose of endeavonr rev to convince them that they ought to make common cause with the Executive and the people in carrying a reform of the duties on imports, and a revision generally of the tariff. We trust that we have not been altogether unsuccessful in the ob ject of our wishes, although they may not have created a complete ferment in the City," which one of our City Con temporaries modestly assumes to have been the immediate re sult of his lucubrations. on subjects, we must remark, which as-ve no more affinity with the Money Market than fire has with water. Whether our remarks have been successful in con vincing others of the truth of our opinions, time will show ; but we have at least the satisfaction of knowing that they are sincerely believed on our part ; and that they are distinctly and clearly within the proper sphere of our department. We have wnfined ourselves to a consideration of the results which the su (Tess of the Ministerial policy may have upon the Money Market, and shall still adhere to that course of doctrine. In doing so we have stated that we find a satisfactory reason for the support which that policy has received from' the leading apitalists and bankers of the City, in the fact that a moderate ficxed duty on corn would relieve the Bank of England from ib e recurrence of those drains upon its coffers which is 1839 re heed it to the verge of bankruptcy, and in the evi dent increase of banking business and profits which wt .uld result from that change, and from the adoption of a more lib oral commercial policy, so as to unchain the productive ener gi,es of the people. We must not, however, judge entirely of them by such views of self-interest. We shall not think so ba dlv of human nature as to believe that the leading men of the City of London are barren of the milk of human kindness, and that they have no bowels of compassion for the want and nes. titution which assail the thousands of operatives now wan 'tering in a state of starvation through the streets of our great sires of population. Although the bankers of London may be :onsidered as the officiating priests at the great temple of mam a non, we are not to conclude that they have no thoughts of the sufferings of those beyond its precincts, whom hard fate and 'bad government have reduced to misery and despair. We be lieve, on the contrary, that ell of the great leading namee e that attended the meeting in the London Tavern were actuated by higher views than the mere enlargement of their money bags. They were actuated by the laudable and patriotic desire to feed tlr e hungry and to clothe the naked, and to improve the moral arid physical condition of their suffering fellow-countrymen. TIM ES.—Some observations having been made in the City or the large difference between the quotations for money and th e account in the Consol Market when a money sale takes place during the shutting of the books, it may be as well to ree eat that these sales cannot be made but on a very special application, which must be approved by the Governor of the Bank. An impression has gone abroad that such transactions render the shutting merely nominal, but this is altogether a mistake, as it is only a few days ago that a broker was unable to effect a sale, because he could not give a sufficient reason, whereas in another operation he was able to obtain the de sired permission, because he pointed out the necessity of the transfer. The effect of this limit to operations on the price of Consols is, that the buyer, not being able to sell out imme diaeely, as when the books are opened, but being compelled to keep his capital locked up till the opening, requires some equivalent for this disadvantage. Hence he pays a price some what lower than under ordinary circumstances, and this occa sions the difference mentioned above. The large number of persons of the humbler classes who now find themselves a prey to money-lenders of the most op pressive and profligate character will not be gratified to per ceive the progress through the Legislature of a Bill to con tinue to January, 1844, the present law, by which certain bills of Exchange and promissory notes are exempted from the operation of the usury laws. The.present system is one of the most grinding that can be imagined. A young man who is anxious to commence business, and wants a small sum (say 1001.) to commence with, has not the slightest chance of obtaining money under twenty per cent., and indeed may con sider himself exceedingly fortunate if he has to pay no higher rate. It is said, that the usurers or their attorneys, for it is generally one of the legal profession who is seen by the unfor tunate borrower, are so conscious that their demands will not bear even a momentary investigation, that they will not allow an applicant to reduce the interest they demand to anything like a rate ; but ask for a round sum to be deducted at once from the money they advance, without any consideration on the subject. A correspondent writes, that on applying for a sum of 601., he was at once asked for 4/. for three months, and that on beginning to reckon what rate per cent. that was, he was rudely interrupted by a remark that business was never done in that way, but that he might either agree to give that sum or close the transaction at once ! This proceeding might, at the first glance, seem to be of ne great importance, as of course a sum of money remains the same, whether reduced to the denomination of a per tentage or not ; but it is really a good illustration of the principle on which the money-lenders wcrk, namely, that of seizing immediately on the necessities of the unfortunate, well aware that a habit of reflection might in the end seriou4y injure their nefarious trade. It is to be re peated that money, being a standard of value, is in a different predicament to articles of merchandize, and that a desire for some restriction on traffic in the former is quite consistent with the advocacy of free trade. PROVIDENTIAL ESCAPE OF THE LIVERPOOL AND HALIFAX STEAMER BRI TANNIA. (From the Boston Mercantile Jinornal.) The steam-ship Britannia. after having undergone repairs, sailed for Halifax on the 2 , th ult. From a letter which ap peared in another paper (the American Poet), it will be seen that she was in imminent peril on the Nova Scotia coast on her passage : " For over three hours we were among breakers, encom passed by the elements of destruction. Yon are aware that the Boston and Halifax steamers are accompanier' by two Sea- Captains, who have been long traders in the port. Captains. Cleland and Boole, while we were in this danger, had barely cleared a reef, and the former was giving his orders to the helmsman and engineers, when a passenger stepped forward and countermanded those orders. Suffice it to say, however, that his orders were not obeyed; for if they had been the ship would have been lost at the outset. The fog was so thick that we could not see a boat's length, and every five minutes brought us near the edge of some reef. from which, however, we escaped, until we struck on a reef, which is now thought to be Morris's Point. " At the time we struck we had scarcely any headway on her, and were drifted broadside on by the surge of the waves. The wheels being aback, we got off in a few seconds, when an inward wave lifted her. One would have thought, after run ning so many risks and hair-breadth escapes, the captains would have relinquished th e i r d ar i ng object of getting into port in n s h n o t w e s e from o t h m e i t r h e h i t a i e m k e h o e f a o d s u r t w fi rs e t u s r t r lt e t n w g . , t s h t e o s p a' such a fog.

(FROM A CORRESI"ONrIENT.) 31r. Carnal, auctioneer, on Friday last, offered the goods for sale which had been seized for Church-rates, from several re spectable inhabitants of t he borou g h, at the insti g ation o f the Ch ur chwardens. The auctioneer had very reluctantly consented to become the salesman of his neighbour's goods and chattels, for th e support of a Church from which they dissented. About 20 lots were offered for sale, for which there were found no buyers. One pair of shoes were bought out of more than a dozen, by a gentleman, for twopence, which he presented the Churchwarden's wife with. A round table was put up, which was purchased by a Tory for two shillings, and who bought a copper tea kettle also, amidst the most discordant yells imaginable. Ten pounds of tea was then put up, but no bidder was found, at which the auctioneer expressed his re gret, fearing as he did, that the expenses would not be cleared. Mr. Manning then proposed three cheers for the anctioneer, for his kindness in conducting the sale. Three dreadful groans were then given for Mother Church, which lasted for some time. The meeting then broke up, after much plea santry and satire had been indulged by the people. The hay harce.At has partially comilicnCed in Eh county. One crop at Ferry -hill has actual,ly.been led.

THE PROPRIETOR:, OF THE; . :RAIL ; I4I I , 4y Lord DENMAN gave judgment in this se, *likeli was an applicatinra for a criminal information agariiit the defendants for an alleged libel upon the Eastern Counties Railway Com pany. Vhe libel charged the Directors of the Company with the wilful publication of false reports of the state of the affairs of the Company with a view to deceive the public or the Share holders, or both. Now, bearing in mind that the Court re quired a direct denial of the statements, whatever they might be, in th e alleged libel, and considering the manner in which that denial had been given, without intending in the slightest degree to. question the veracity of the party by whom the denial had been made, it appeared to them that tl.ere uas some ground in. these reports and proceedings for the allusions made to them, and for raising a doubt as to the accuracy of these re ports, alt'nough not to the extent of making injurious remarks to the prejudice of the Company. Upon the whole, however, bearing ix. mind the opportunity given to the Directors to deny these allt!gations fully and entir,ly, and that another remedy was open. to them if they chose to avail themselves of it, the Court w as of opinion that the application woald be most pro perly dis p osed of by discharging the rule on the payment of costs.—F:ule discharged. THE QUEEN V. THE ARCHBISHOP OF YORE AND DR. PHILLIMORE. Loed Desstasr gave judgment in this case, which had been argued ai . . considerable length during the present term. The proceedir gs in this case might be very shortly stated. His Grace th% i Archbishop. as Ordinary, cited the Dean and Chap ter of York to attend a Visitation, and appointed the learned civilian, Dr. Phillimore, as his Commissary for the correction and puniiohment, by ecclesiastical law, of whoever was contu macious, and for the administration of articles, and receiving their pros entments and answers, and f,r doing everything else pertaininv to the quality of the Visitation. The ancient for mula were observed, and there seemed no reason to doubt that there was sufficient authority to inquire ire() the ecclesiastical offences of everybody concerned. At the first meeting the Dean att ended, and an inquiry was made respecting the sale of some Chourch preferment, of which he was said to have re ceived thee proceeds. He conductedhimself on that occasion in such a r. tanner as was deemed contumacious, and sentence of contempt was, by the Commissary, pronounced against him. He then departed, and the proceedings went on, and, in his absence, the Rev. Mr. Dixon, one of the Canons, made a direct &large of simony against the Dean. He was accord ingly no uested to attend, and did so, but the Commis sary required hire, in the first place, to purge him. self of the contempt, but he declined to do so. He agai n absented himself, saying, not by way of courting in vestiganion but of defiance, that Mr. Dixon might go on with his charge. The Learned Commissary was of opinion that the charge was established, and that the Dean for that offence should . be deprived of his office. Sentence of deprivation was afterwr.rds solemnly pronounced by his Grace the4rchbishop. Prohibit ion was claimed on several grounds, and a late Act of ' Parham:sent, the 2d and 3d Victoria, ch. 86, " for the better enforcing Church Discipline," was relied upon. The enactment was qusi: ified by a proviso that nothing in the Act should be constru ed to affect any authority over the clergy in their• re spective: provinces which the Archbishop or Bishop might then exercise without process of Court. The 23d section was also quoted,, which provided that no proceedings in criminal offences should be instituted, except in the manner provided by that Act. It was st intended that although sec. Ist of the general enactment. extend ed to all offences, and although " causes," a word well unders food, were the only proceedings mentioned in the pre amble, the 23d sec. provided that the statute shall be observed in all ,niminal proceedings instituted in matters ecclesiastical. But th e question was, was this a criminal proceeding or arising out of tile visitation ? The answer appeared to be, that as soon as the visitor proceeded to examine into the ecclesiastical offence s which were alleged against the Dean, and more espe cially a ;hen that charge was regularly made at the instance of an acct alter, a criminal proceeding was undeubtedly instituted. It was 'Anther alleged that the proceedings in such cases mnst lie in some Ecclesiastical Court, and that this was not an Ecclesiasti cal Cove t for such a purpose. Now that brought them to the ques tion of w hether the Archbishop, as visitor, was legally entitled to deprivo the Dean of his office for an ecclesiastical offence, without the int NI ference of a Court of Law. In order to come to that con clusion. it must be established to their satisfaction that such was the made of proceeding in former times, but no example of such a power having been exercised by the Archbishop and clergy, even is regular and solemn visitation, had been laid before them. It was admitted that they were exempted to a certain extent at these visitations from the forms of common law, but some forms, as far as regarded the knowing and an swerin g the charge, were absolutely necessary. The different modes of dealing with the charges had been enumerated ; in the ordina_ry case articles were exhibited, and the party had time and place greren him, and then sentence waspronounced, but, accord ing to :s1 their ex pet ienee and knowledge of the proceedings in these courts,not without process. It was well known that the as sumed want of the power now claimed was one reason for intro ducing the present law, and the Court was aware that the juris diction of visitors had been very distinctly defined.by Lord Holt, iklr. S. Kinner, and other common law authorities. The Learned Judge here referred to the various authorities that bad been cited and the arguments that had been founded upon the! decisions in these eases. From all these cases, and a review a f all the arguments urged before them, the Court was constrained to conclude that the most Rev. Prelate, in so far as he ha d proceeded at a visitation to deprive the Dean, had acted be yond his jurisdiction. They declined to enter upon the consideration of the numerous points of objection that had been urged en behalf of the Learned Commissary ; but there was orme which the Court thought it was fitting should be disposed of on the present occasion. It was argued that tae sentence, was final, and that there was no power in that Court to interfere. That argument required to be narrowly watched, because if carried out to the fullest extent it might be used to give effect to unlawful proceedings. In looking at the words of the sentence, they found that the Dean was ad monished not to act, on pain of the greater sentence of excommunication ; but it should be remembered that the Dean could not appeal before the sentence had been pronounced, because the deprivation was the only thing done beyond the jurisdiction of the Archbishop. Up to that point certainly his Grace had the power to interfere, with a view to ulterior pro ceedings, and it appeared that the Lord Chancellor had in one case dissolved the prohibition, because the appeal was made before sentence had been pronounced. The Court, if it felt any doubt whatever, would feel itself bound to invite further discussion, by calling upon the Dean of York to de clare in prohibition ; but after the full, the long, and the ma turely prepared discussion that had taken place, enforced by the arguments of the most eminent Counsel, and with the highest legal ability, they owed it to all parties—they owed it to the public, and in a particular manner they owed it to the Church, to encourage no doubt where they felt none, on a sub ject of such immense importance and so deeply affecting its rights, its interests, and its duties. The rule for the prohibi tion must, therefore, be made absolute. BAIL COURT, June 19. DOE U. WESTON. This was an action of ejectment to recover possession of two houses in Vine -street, one of them being the Ship public-house. The lessor of the plaintiff in this case sought to re cover possession of the premises in question under a proviso of re-entry, contained in defendant's lease, on the ground of forfeiture ; and the forfeiture was alleged to have been incurred by breach of two covenants in the lease, one a covenant to repair, and the other a covenant to use due diligence in procuring annually a license for the Ship public-house, and not to do or be a party to tl4 . doing of anything which could endanger the procuring of that license. It appeared from the evidence that the defendant had broken down the party wall between the two houses and caused a door to be placed there, thus opening an internal communication between the two houses ; but that when objection was made by the land lord to that proceeding the door had been taken away and the wall rebuilt. - Further, it appeared that the de fendant had on two several occasions had persons drink ing in his house at illegal hours ; once at half-past ten on Sunday morning, and once at half-past twelve at night ; that on one of these occasions he was fined 10s.. and on the other 405., and that at the licensing day the Magistrates refused his licence. The .JUDGE, in summing up, told the jury that he did not consider the breaking down the wall and putting a door a substantial breach of the covenant to repair. though it might have been of a covenant not to commit waste. He was inclined to think that the keeping open at illegal hours was a substantial breach of the other covenant, but he left the question to them.—Verdict for the plaintiff. • NEWMAN V. SAVORY. This was an action of trespass and false imprisonment, to which there was a plea of not guilty. It appeared that the plaintiff was a toll-collector at Newgate Market, and the defendant a butcher. On the 23d of last January the defendant went with his cart to 'Newgate Market and left it standing in a line with the other carts, whilst he went into the market to make pur chases. He left two pigs in the cart, and upon his return the pigs and the cart were gone. Whereupon the de fent'ant, though remonstrated with, gave the plaintiff into the custody of a policeman, rho took him to the station house, and thence before a Magistrate, when he was dis missed. For that injury the plaintiff brought this ac tion, and the jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—da mages 50s. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, June 19. IsIORLEY V. GUNDRY. Mr. Thesiger, Mr. 11. Evans, and another gentleman appeared for the plaintiff ; and Mr. J. Jervis and Mr. Bylescondueted the case for the defendant. ✓ This was an action brought by the plaintiff to recover a sum of money from the defendant fur use and occupa tion, meat and other articles, as necessaries furnished and supplied to his wife. The defendant, it will be remembered, has, within the last few months, rendered himself somewhat celebrated , by the rna,nner in which he has assaulted some of the police upon the occasion of their going to execute a warrant upon him in his chambers in the Albany, Picca dilly, and by his conduct and demeanour at the police office subsequently. It will be in the recollection of our readers also that at the last Westminster Sessions this gentleman was convicted of the assault, and ordered to enter into his own recognizances in the sum of 1,0001., and to find two sureties in 5001. each. Not being pre pared with the sureties, Mr. Gundry was driven off to the Westminster Brideweil in his own carriage. In the present case it appeared that the defendant had been in the habit of ill treating his wife, whom he had turned out of doors, after she had for some years, pre viously to the alteration in his conduct towards her, enjoyed all the comforts which could be commanded by a gentleman of considerable property, the posi tion in which the defendant stood in a pecuniary point of view. Mrs. Gundry, in February last, had written two letters to her husband, stating that unless she received an answer to the contrary within two days she should return home. Not receiving any com munication from the defendant on the 13th of February, Mrs. Gundry accordingly went to the house, but not being admitted, she had been compelled to board and lodge at the plaintiff's, and the present demand was the result of that fact. Evidence was produced to show that for the accommodation Mrs. Gundry received at the plaintiff's, boarding in the house, herself and servant, and occupying two bed-rooms and one sitting-room, the weekly charge of 4L 14s. 6d. was Int too much. Mr. JERVIS, on the part of the defendant, took several objections to various items in the bill of particulars. Amongst others were charges for moneys paid by the plaintiff t o tra d espeople on account of Mrs. Gundry. These items were therefore erased from it. Lord ABINGER said he hoped that each of those par ties would bring actions for the recovery of the sums against the defendant. JEavis trusted that if such a course were pursued, the defendant would give proper instructions, and having given them, that he would not then lock himself up from his legal advisers, as he had done in the present instance. —(Laughter,) The Learned Counsel then took a n ob jection to a charge for " coach-hire," as not a necessary. Lord ABINGEII—I do not know that, after having lived as Mrs. Gundry has been accustomed to do, having the use of two carriages belonging to her husband, she should be compelled to walk. I will not say, under such circumstances, her husband still being a man of property, that she ought to be obliged to walk. Mr. TIIESIGER said the fact was, that her husband having got into prison, she had gone to the house to see that the furniture was properly taken care of. The Jury returned a verdict for the plitintiff—Da mages, 281. 16s. LEWIS V. RING, ESQ. This was an action against the defendant, a sheriff for the county of Surrey, for a false return to a writ. Mr. J. Jervis, Mr. Hoggins, and Mr. C. Jones, ap peared for the plaintiff ; and Mr. W. H. Watson and Mr. Peacock for the defendant. The plaintiff issued a writ against the late lessee of the Victoria Theatre for a sum of 37/., which ultimately was returned by the sheriff endorsed nulla bona. This return the plaintiff contended was not correct, inasmuch as there were many articles of property in the theatre. The ques tion, therefore, to be tried was whether such goods were on the premises, and if so, whether they were available for the purposes of the levy. The following evidence was then given : J. Radcliffe—Was lessee of the Victoria ; Mr. Smith was the landlord ; ceased to be lessee on 9th March this year ; gave it up to Mr. Smith, receiving back 50/., the amount of his deposit as security ; the rent was paid, but not by•himself ; knew C. Kerny Nicols, the secre tary to the Westminster Discount and Loan Society, in Buckingham-street ; that person had the management of his theatre for him from 16th January to the 9th March ; Nicols took the receipts of the theatre duriog that period. When Nicols took the management he owed that party between 3001. and 400/. ; witness was out of the way at the time. He gave Nicols the lease as a collateral security. Never saw a person of the name of Gibbard ; never employed him as his attorney. Did not make a sale of the lease to Osbaldiston. Knew Job ling, who was his watchman at the theatre. Knew Cox, the officer, from whom .Tobling came into the theatre with two executions. After he had paid the executions by instalments he took Jobling into his service, and he made himself useful. Mr. JEnvis—As the leg of an elephant I suppose. —(Laughter.) Witness—Yes, anything. Lord I I3INGER—He was an actor of all work then ? —(Laugliter.) Witness—Yes, my Lord, he made him self generally useful. Cross-examined by Mr. WATSON—Jobling was the " Blue Peter . ' who had been spoken of. He left the theatre on the 16th January. The plaintiff is the son of Mr. Lewis, the sheriff's officer. Maurice Levy had an execution against him. Several executions were paid out of the theatre, but not all of them. John Dale—Was stage-manager of the Victoria Thea tre from . September to March last. Of course, in that character he had had the care of the properties. He had acted, in the capacity of acting manager, in De camber, in February, ani March. Was sorry to say he knew Nicols too well. That person took the manage ment after the 16th of January. An order was put up in the hall and in other parts of the theatre, by order of Nicols, of which the following is a copy : "Royal Victoria Theatre. " Under the entire management of the sole lessee, J. B. ll;ideliffe. " Notice.—All weekly bills or accounts of carpenters, property-room. wardrobe, supernumeraries, bill deli verers, bill-stickers, firework-makers, or any other de partment of the theatre, and all trademen's bills accruing doe from the 16th inst., to be submitted for auditing be fore seven o'clock every Friday evening for payment on Saturday, or they will be deferred until the following Saturday. " J. T. HAINES, Acting Manager. " January 16, 1841." The Wizard of the Wave, or the Ship qf the Avenger, was an expensive piece. The properties might have cost more than 100/. The ship was very large, and was still in the house. There was a large chandelier, worth at least 40/. There was no wardrobe then. There were " moving waters" of canvas in the theatre, and timber too, a great deal of rope, and many lanterns, which had been bought at Braham's Colosseum. Jobling came in at first as an offier, but he afterwards took very kindly as an actor, and acted in a double capacity at the same time—that was, as sheriff's officer and as actor. Jobling was stil there as a supernumerary, for there was now no necesiity for writs or executions. J. T. Haines was manager of the Victoria. He joined the theatre. 10th January, and had written the " order"' by direction of Nicols. The winter was generally the best part of the year, from September to Easter. Saw Jobling and Cox there, the latter frequently. Cross-examined—Had frequently seen Cox at the theatre. Osbaldiston was lessee of the Victoria Theatre. Took it from Smith and Son. Did not pay Radcliffe any money. The license was in the name of the landlord and Radcliffe. He purchased 60/. worth of properties from the sheriff under a bill of sale. Bought other things in the theatre from Nicols. Paid 460/. fur the goodwill and goods to Nicols ; that was in addition to what he had bought under the bill of sale. He found the venetian blinds in the saloon. There was a ship there, and " shaking waters," for which he should not like now to give more than 51. or 61. There was scenery there also. The fittings-up of the boxes were not worth anything to sell. He had had them taken down and thrown away. There was a large chandelier. Had the lease at the pre sent moment. Cross-examined--The gas fittings and pipes were ex pensive. They were the property of the landlord. Radcliffe recalled—He had paid 76/. 12s. to the land lord for fixtures. Mr. WATSON then, on the part of the defendant, said that the return to the writ was correct, inasmuch as there were executions already in the theatre for far more than all the property would satisfy. There were two of these writs which were—the one for arrears of rent, amounting to 1601.—the other at the suit of Nicols for 3031. odd. There were many other writs. The Learned Counsel said he would call witnesses to establish that fact, and having done so should then be entitled to a verdict. _ _ George Briggs, clerk to the landlords, Messrs. Smith and Son, produced a lease from Merriman to Radcliffe and others, dated 11th May, 1840, at a rent of 1,250/. per annum, payable in weekly sums of 231. In January, 1841, the rent due was 160/. ; a notice was served upon he man in possession on the 16th of January to that effect. Cross-examined—Was not present when the lease was surrendered by Radcliffe. Thomas Peach, Clerk in the Office of the Sheriff for Surrey, produced various writs; had one of Nicols's, which had not been returned, for 3031., and there was a warrant upon that, dated January 7, 1841. There was another writ at the suit of Emmett; that was returned nulla bona ;it was issued 6th January. There was one of Temple's, dated 19th January; returned 28th January, nulla bona. The amount of these was 3031. Nicols; Emmett, 25/. 12s. 4d.; and Temple, 531. 10s. Jos. Miller valued the goods which had been sold to Osbaldiston. The full and fair value was 699/. That value was much above the " hammer" value. Cross-examined—Nicoll pointed out part of the things; he valued everything that was Radcliffe's property. Joseph Jobiing had been employed by Cox in this mat ter; went into the theatre last summer; while in posses sion there were two warrants came at one time; he pointed out some of the goods to the valuer, but he did not know all of them. Cross-examined—Went to the theatre as a sheriff's officer, and then took a situation under the management ; he had acted in the pantomime. Lord ABINGER—Iie tumbled down once or twice. Examination resumed—Could not say when he re ceived the warrant. Nicols was managing the theatre. Ratcliffe was not on the premises. Cox came to levy, and left the warrant with him. J. Edgar—Was well acquainted with the properties of the theatre ; he and the carpenter pointed out the things which were not fixtures to the appraiser. He did not point out some things which Nicols had said be longed to him. Roe, carpenter of the theatre—The " Wizard of the Wave" was done with when he joined the theatre. The " Wizard of the Wave" was a showy piece. It con sumed 54/. worth of timber, and 18/. worth of rope. Mr. JERVIS replied, Lord ABINGER summed up. The question was, whe ther, at the time of the delivery of the writ to the She riff, there were sufficient goods to satisfy it. There was no evidence to show that Cox had not gone in as soon as he had received it. Then, on the 16th of January no tice was served on the Sheriff that there was an arrear of rent amounting to 160/., and there had previously been an execution put into the theatre by Nicols, for 3031. Was there, then, on the 20th of January, the day on which the plaintiff's writ was sent, more than sufficient goods to satisfy those two sums of 1601. and 3031.? If not, the return would be correct.—A verdict for the defendant. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COUR7'. Michael Connor, aged 12, and Catherine M. Grath, aged 10, were Ndicted for feloniously breaking and entering the dwelling-house of John Smith, and stealing one coat, one pair of trowsers, one waistcoat, and other articles to the value of 3/. _ The female prisoner was admitted as Queen's evidence. The prosecutor was brother-in-law to the prisoner, and on the day in question he had gone out, and while away, the pri soner obtained a key with which he entered the room of the prosecutor, and comm itted the robbery with which he was charged. The female prisoner was in company with the pri sorer, but took no part in the robbery. The Jury returned a verdict of guilty. There was a no th er coun t i n the indictment, charging the prisoner. with a p rev i ous conv i c ti on , when he was transported for ten ye ars , w hi c h sentence was co mmuted. He had also been in p r is on many times. The prisoner was sentenced to fifteen years' tran s p or t a ti on . Mary Hemman, aged sixty-two, was charged with throwing her husb an d, P e t er Hemman, on the stairs while in a state of intoxication, and thereby causing his death. It appeared, from the evidence of a lodger, that the husband came home to his house in Fell-street while drunk, and endeavoured to get into his bed-room, but the prisoner caught hold of him by the collar and threw him on his back, and aft er s t r iki ng him once or twice on the head, she allowed hi m to r i se . - In about an hour the de ceased was observed standing at the door of the room, when the prisoner came behind him and pushed him, from the effects of which he fell with his head on the stairs. He lay there a few minutes, and when Mr. Garrard, a sur geon, came with Inspector Norton, he was found dead. Mr. Garrard stated, that, on examining the body, he found the vertebral bones of the neck were broken, which caused immediate death. Inspector Norton said, that, on telling the prisoner that her husband was dead, she replied, Thank God for it ; I did it my se lf." I.ll ' Fi.i""" said, in deli:nee, th.;,i, it itiaS quite acci dental ; that sh e was try i ng to res train him from going . to quarrel w ith some l o d gers , when he burst from herp—m so dying, he fell i n th e manner descrthEd. Mr. Garrard, being recalled, stated that the decease• was a very obstinate man, and he had no doubt that Ow occurrence might have taken place in the manner de scribed. The Jury, after a short consultation, returned a ver dict of Not Guilty. Charles Powis, aged 25, a policeman of the V divi sion, was indicted Or burgiariously breaking open and entering the premises of Mary Ann Stewart, and steal ing one flitch of bacon, 281bs. of sugar, and other arti cles, valued at 21. 125., her property. It appears that Mrs. Stewart, who lives at Clapham, and is a general dealer, left her premises carefully locked up on Satur day, the 12th instant, and on the Monday following she found that the articles in question had been stolen. She never saw the prisoner before. Sergeant Emerson, V 9, stated that the prisoner was in the same division of police with him. He (the pri soner) was on duty near Mrs. Stewart's house from nine in the evening until six in the morning, when he re ported himself at the station-house. From information he received he went to the prisoner's lodgin g s, where he found a sack containing the bacon, which weighed fifty-six pounds. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty, and he was sen tenced to be transported for fifteen years. Isaac Prior, described in the calendar as a milkman, was then placed at the• bar on an indictment charging him with stealing a brown mare, valued at 71., the pro perty of John Clanricard. The prisoner was found Guilty, and as he had pre viously been convicted, he was sentenced to be trans ported for fifteen years. NEW COURT. At the request of Mr. Phillips. Mr. Justice Wightman con sented to postpone the trial of M‘Garretty, for the murder at Woolwich, until the next sessions. Mr. Phillips said that facts had transpired from which it appeared that the prisoner was subject to an aberration of mind. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. On Saturday a German Jew, named Schmekalden, was charged before Sir Peter Laurie with having stolen jewels to the amount of between 300/. and 400/. The complainant, Mr. Samuels, also a Jew and a foreigner, stated that the prisoner, whom he had em ployed to sell jewels on commission, called upon him one (lay, and said that he wanted some stones to show to Messrs. Knott and Williams, of Frith-street, Soho, jewellers, who wished to purchase a quantity. After some conversation, in which the complainant impressed upon the prisoner several cautions as to the disposal of the jewels, the complainant gave thirty-five diamonds into the hands of the prisoner, in the firm belief that they were to be forthwith taken to the firm above mentioned. The prisoner, however, never returned to settle the account. In the afternoon of the following day a boy brought a letter to the complainant, and upon the delivery of it ran away. The letter was from the defendant, and it stated that he had lost the diamonds, an excuse which had all the evidence of falsehood about it. As the complainant was firmly persuaded that the prisoner had misappropri ated the diamonds, an officer was employed to take him into custody. Sir. P. LAURIE asked the complainant in what way the prisoner carried the diamonds about him. The complainant replied that the prisoner, as was usual with persons selling diamonds on commission, was in the habit of keeping a tin box tied round him, in •which he kept the diamonds, and on no account ever parted with it, even at night, but slept with it under his pillow. Messrs. Knott and Williams, to whom the pri soner said he was about to sell the diamonds, upon being questioned on the subject, declared that they , had given no directions to the prisoner relative to articles of the kind ; and their clerk upon hearing the statements as to the loss said to the complainant " You are done, Mr. Samuels." The complainant then went to the prisoner's wife, who told him that she knew nothing of her hus band. but that he had left the tin case to be repaired at a shop. Upon applying at the shop complainant learned that the prisoner had left the tin case there, and that he had put the diamonds very carefully in his waistcoat pocket, saying " I should not like to lose them, for they are very valuable." Sir. P. LAURIE—Did he vary in his statement as to the loss ? Complainant—He said, upon being taken into custody, that he wanted the diamonds for a Mr. Keyser, and he persisted in saying that he had lost them. The prisoner declared to his God that he was a per fectly honest man, and was frequently entrusted with 4,0001. or 5,000/. worth of precious stones. Sir P. LAURIE—What made you say that Messrs. Knott and Williams were first to be the dealers for the diamonds, and afterwards mention Mr. Keyser ? The prisoner denied that he had used the names of Messrs. Knott and Williams. Sir P. LAURIE said that he had no doubt as to the nature of this case, and supposed that the complainant would have his diamonds returned to him. The prisoner vowed that he had lost the diamonds out of his side pocket, but how he could not tell. Sir P. LAURIE—Why, instead of writing the letter the day after to the complainant, did you not at once call upon him to communicate to him the loss, that he might make some attempts for its recovery ? Complainant—Ave, that's the question. Thank you, Sir. I see you know how to put questions that he never can answer. The prisoner merely repeated that he had sustained the loss, and that he was the most honest of men, to which Mr. Keyser could bear evidence. Mr. Keyser stepped forward and assured Sir P. Laurie that the prisoner had never committed an ill action, and that he might be trusted to any amount. Sir P. LAURIE—Pray, did the prisoner receive direc tions from you to get these diamonds ? Mr. Keyser— He had sold me some diamonds, and I told him if he could get, me others I should be able to sell them. Sir PETER LAURIE—The prosecutor swears that the prisoner told him that the diamonds were to be taken to Messrs. Knott and Williams, and the prisoner now says that he got them for you. Which of them do you believe ? Mr. Keyser—l know the prisoner long to be a man of integrity, and I have no deubt he lost the diamonds. The complainant said that Mr. Keyser himself had lost a box of diamonds of much greater value some time ago. One of the statements made by the prisoner was, that Messrs. Knott and Williams required credit for three months, and he (complainant) expressed that he had no objection at all to give the accommodation, as the firm was so respectable. The prisoner said that it was all a mistake. Sir PETER LAURIE—Very well. If you do not re store this man's property to him before Tuesday next, I shall commit you to Newgate for the robbery, which you have certainly committed. The prisoner was then remanded. BOIV-STREET. The Magistrates sat at this office, for the last time, on Saturday, the Secretary of State for the Home De partment having given directions that the house and office adjoining shall be pulled down, and a more com modious edifice erected on the site of the present court. In the mean time the business of the office will be carried on in the station-house immediately opposite, in apart ments which have been fitted up for that purpose. The new building is expected to be completed in about four months. Within the last five years there has been a complete change of the Magistrates of the above office. Sir P. Roe, Mr. Halls, and Mr. Nlinshull having been succeeded by Mr. H. Hall, Mr. Twyford, and Mr. Jar dine. All the old Bow-street police have been dis charged on pensions. The workmen will commence their labours on Monday. MARYLEBONE. John Fleming was charged with having robbed his employer, Mr. Benjamin Howland, linen-draper, 25, Ox ford-street, of goods to a large amount. It appeared that in consequence of observations made by the prose cutor, he accused the prisoner on Friday night of having robbed him ; the prisoner said he had never even har boured a dishonest thought, and appeared to feel acutely the severity of the imputation. A policeman was how ever called in, and after some hesitation the prisoner drew from his pocket a silk handkerchief and a pair of black silk gloves. Full of expressions of penitence and sorrow at his inadvertent deviation from honesty, the prisoner was locked up. The prosecctor and the consta ble' then searched the prisoner's lodgings at Brompton, and there found a quantity of ribbon, a white silk bon net trimmed with elegant lace, prints, gloves, handker chiefs, •scarfs, &c., and 36 duplicates for articles of va rious descriptions. The property was produced, and the prosecutor identified the greater portion of it. The prisoner, who is a married man, was then remanded. He acknowledged that some of the things belonged to Mr. Howland. GREENWICH POLICE. KITCIIEN ETIQUETTE.—On Saturday Mr.Quartermain, one of the proprietors of the Crown and Sceptre Tavern, Greenwich, and also of the York Hotel, Bridge-street, Blackfriars, appeared before Mr. Groves in answer to a summons for assault. James Bassel stated that he was a waiter, and had occasion to go into the kitchen of the Crown and Sceptre with some fish. The defendant was present, and immediately the complainant entered he knocked his cap off and afterwards struck him on the head. He had given no provocation for the assault. Mr. Grove inquired what the defendant had to say to the charge. Mr. Quartermain admitted that upon the complainant coming into the kitchen with his cap on he knocked it off, and upon complainant replacing it, he knocked it off again, and might have struck him on the head. The defendant added that in such an establish ment as his it was necessary to have the strictest disci pline, and one of the rules was not to allow any person to come into the kitchen with his head covered. He would not think of going in himself with his hat on ; and added, that the complainant had been told the day before that such a rule existed. Mr. Grove said, there was a great difference between the kitchen of an hotel and a Court of Justice. There was no doubt but that an assault had been committed, but not being of a serious nature he should only inflict a fine of is., and the costs, which the defendant paid, and left the Court. In Canterbury a sharp contest is quite certain if two Conservative candidates present themselves, as the Libe rals will come into the field with far better prospects than at the late election, when the party was divided and the Con servative policy of Ministers, since so happily changed, ba , l thrown apathy and disgust over the minds of nearly all Re formers.

INF A NTICIDE.—Iti August, 1840, a woman named Josephine Leger, living at Brenod, was brought. before the Assizes of the Ain, on the charge of having concealed the birth of her child, and of having destroyed it. The indictment averred that the said child was born in the month of April, 1840. This crime was attributed to the following must :—Josepliine Leger has been separated from her husband, who lives in another village, for some years past, and resides with her father and mother. In 1839 she had been suspected of having given birth to a child IN hich had disappeared, and her husband had com plained of his wife's behaviour, and had declared to the curate and mayor of Brenod that he was for nothing in the pregnancy of his wife, and at the same time forbade their registering the birth and baptising the child till he had been informed of its birth. It was supposed that the fear that Leger inspired his wife with, and the neces sity of removing all traces of a second fault, had induced her to commit, in 1840, the crime laid to her charge. Josephine Leger was no sooner arrested than she ac knowledged having beep confined of a child on the 26th of April, 1840, adding that as it was still-born she thought that there was no harm in her burying IL She was then summoned to mention the place where she had interred the child, but, although she mentioned divers places, no remains of the child were found, in spite of the judicial searches made on the occasion. While in prison, it appears, Josephine Leger informed a fellow-prisoner that her motive for not discovering the place where she had buried her child proceeded,from the fear of' certain marks being found on the child's neck. The trial was commenced last August, but certain de tails of importance having transpired, it was judged ex pedient to adjourn the trial for a session. A woman of the name of Carrier, belonging to an adj c , oinin village, that of Maconod, had come forward and stated that a young lad of eleven years old, called Lascoine, who had been shepherd-boy to the father of Josephine Leger, since her arrest had told her something which seemed to throw a new light on the charge brought against Jose phine Leger. This lad, when examined, deposed that he one day asked Josephine Leger's little boy, who lived at his grandfather's, why his mother was in prison? And the child answered, " It is for having killed my little brother." He added, " She put him first into a cradle, and then carried him into an upper room, where my grandmother was. They both placed him on a table; and, while grandmother held him, mother plunged a knife into his belly. My little brother squalled ' Hein, he in."rhey then carried him into the stable, and after wards to the dung-hill. Grandmother told me not to say a word of what I had seen, and that my, little bro ther would have beaten me if he had grown bigger. She afterwards gave me some nuts to make me bold my tongue." In consequence of this Mine. Minet, the mother of Josephine Leger, was arrested as an accomplice of her daughter. The trial of the mother and daughter commenced on Monday. Josephine Leger persisted in having been confined of a still-born child, and that her mother knew nothing of her pregnancy or of her confinement. Mine. Millet affirmed that she was not at all acquainted with her daughter's pregnancy, and that she caused her to be examined by a medical man as soon as she heard the reports in circulation. She attributed to malevo lence the depositions of the lad Lascoine. Several witnesses deposed that they believed that Josephine Leger was pregnant in 1837, but that they had never heard what had been done with the child she had had, and that as they entertained a similar idea in 1840 respecting the pregnancy of Josephine Leger, they had intimated their suspicions to the proper authorities, in order that measures might be taken to prevent a crime beirg committed. The judicial authorities of Brenord deposed that they had questioned Josephine on her pregnancy, stating the report in circulation on the subject, and. requestins , her to submit to medical examination, which she had always strenuously refused. Lascoine related with great simplicity the details he had received from Josephine's child, and his testimony was strengthened by that of M. Carrier, who deposed that on hearing the above details from Lascoine, she had questioned young Leger, and that he had said, " Yes, if I had been bigger, I would have prevented my little brother's being killed." This closed the evidence against the prisoners. After a talented defence by their Counsel, Madame Minot was acquitted, and Josephine I eger was sentenced to twenty years hard labour and the pillory, mitigating circumstances having been found by the Jury. CAUTION TO PERSONS LEtTING LODG INGS.—Another of those specious robberies which have become so numerous of late was perpetrated by two females in the garb of ladies on Thursday last. It ap pears that at about two o'clock in the afternoon of that day the ladies called at the residence of Mrs. Rumpling, of Elm-cottage, Kennington-lane, Lambeth, and re quested permission to see the furnished lodgings which she (Mrs. Rumpling) had to let. They were imme diately shown up stairs, and after viewing the apart ments expressed their satisfaction with them, and having stated that they were mother and daughter, desired to be furnished with pen, ink, and paper. Mrs. Rumpling immediately went down stairs for that purpose, leaving them in the drawing-room. On her return, the elder female hastily wrote what she stated to be her name and address, and withdrew. The parties had not, however, left the house many minutes, when Mrs. Rumpling dis covered that they had taken with them a pair of silver sugar tongs, value 21. lOs. The elder female appears to be about forty, and the younger sixteen years of age. The address which they gave was, of course, a ficti tious one. ATTEMPT TO MURDER.—A man of the name of Goodman, employed as a labourer on the Eastern Counties Railway, has this week been apprehended and committed for trial to the county gaol, for violently as saulting and attempting to cut the throat of a girl of the name of Sarah Jones, at Brentwood, on Monday evening last. Particulars of the assault having been given at the police station, Superintendent Davis proceeded to the spot, a back lane, where she was found lying in a ditch, bleeding profusely from her mouth, and apparently in a dying state ; assistance having been procured she was conveyed to a place of safety, and a description of the man being given, he was traced to his lodgings, where he was apprehended.—Cheksjiird Chronicle. SUDDEN DEATH.—We have to record another of those sad and melancholy visitations of Providence which we have so frequently to deplore, in the sudden death of David Dingle, a very respectable old inhabitant of Saltash. He retired to his bed in perfect health and spirits on Tuesday se'nnight ; and on Wednesday morn ing early his wife found him dead by her side. As no inquest was held on the body, we are unable to state the immediate cause of his death, probably apoplexy.— West Briton. Thursday night, between nine and ten o'clock, an interesting young female named Ann Carter, aged 19 years, threw herself into the river Thames, nearly op posite the lied House, at Battersea, from a boat m which were another female and three young men, in a fit of jealousy. The body has not yet been found. She was the principal support of an aged mother. NORWICH.—We are sorry to learn that one of our factories is about to close. Hundreds of people in this city are now out of employment, and are parading the market place. Many are earnestly hoping that there may be " a good sharp contest" at the election, that they may have an opportunity of selling themselves for good round sums. Others that have no such expectations are denouncing the Corn-laws, believing that they are the cause of their want of employment. We have not yet heard that there is to be an opposition. Any person who intends to fight Norwich must bring 20,000/. There is, undoubtedly, a wish to compromise amongst the leaders of each party, and a very great fear of it amongst the venal electors. No address has at present been issued. — Bury Post. MURDER AND RETRIBUTION.---A soldier of the army in Algiers, named Jugla, having in one of last year's expeditions received a wound which rendered am putation of his left arm unavoidable, was, when re covered, discharged from service with a pension of 360 francs. He returned to Paris, his native city, and was received by a maiden aunt, named Guery, living on the Quai de Bethune, who, though her earnings were not more than enough for her subsistence, gave him board and lodging. Jugla, instead of endeavouring to con tribute towards their joint support, became dissolute, and gave his hes‘oss repeated cause of complaint by coming home intoxicated. On Monday night he was in a worse state than ever, and used coarse language towards his be nefactress, who, though late, was still working for his maintenance. She recommended him to go to bed, but as be persevered in his ungrateful conduct she was provoked 40 say she would no longer converse with a drunkard. This reproach so exasperated Jugla that he drew a knife, stabbed her in the side, and was preparing to repeat the stroke, when she escaped, ran down into the porter's lodge, and there fainted. A surgeon was called, who dressed her wound, and she is likely to recover. The nephew, brought partially to his senses by the struggle and the outcry raised against him, and struck with re morse, threw himself from the window of the fourth story, and would have come headlong to the pavement, had not his fall been shortened by a balcony on the first floor, the rails of which he broke, but as he rolled inwards he lay between them and the window. The inhabitants of the apartment were out of town, and had not left the key. Jugla, therefore, remained on the balcony till a ladder was brought, when he was taken down and carried to the Hotel Dieu, where he expired in a few minutes.:— Galignani's Messenger. , CAUTION TO - PARENTS —A distressing oc currence took place at Upwell, Norfolk, on Saturday last. It appeared that the children of William May, labourer, had, in the absence of their mother, without her permis sion, been accustomed to drink water out of a tea-kettle, when cold. A practice so dangerous, amongst children, cannot ba too carefully guarded against, as the sequel will show. About six o'clock on Saturday evening, May was sitting with his children, in his cottage, reading, the table being set for tea, and the kettle boiling on the grate, when one of them, named Ann, three years of age, unobserved by her father, approached the fire and drank out of the kettle-spout, before he could prevent her. It appeared he snatched her away, but it was too late. The child was immediately carried to its mother, who was at work at a relation's not far off, and medical aid was pro cured, but the poor creature, after suffering the most in tense agonies, expired on Monday morning about six o'clock. An inquest was held on the body the same day, when the jury returned a verdict to the effect that the deceased died in consequence of drinking boiling water from a tea-kettle.—Cambridge Chronicle. The collection of living animals in the Garden of Plants has lately had added to it a specimen never before seen alive in any zoological collection of Europe. It is a monitor lizard, from the Brazils, three feet in length, two-thirds of which are formed by the tai'. The 1::, the :: . ,..o=rance of bh2.;;l: c,llgrin, bright yellow.
