The London University, when finished, is to consist of a central portico, and two wings ad vancing at right angles, with tetrastyle porticos to correspond ; the central portico consists of ten columns of tl►e Corinthian order, supporting an enriched entablature and pediment, sculptured with ornaments emblematic of the objects of the institution. Over the whole, and springing from the vestibule, will appear a►a elevated dome, sur mounted by a Grecian temple of eight pillars. Over each wing corresponding doilies of a smaller size will also appear. Extending from the back of the central part there is a range of building which corresponds in length with the two wings —the upper floor is intended as a grand hall on public occasions. The two wings receding back wards have a semicircular term►nation, and con sist of theatres for public lectures, one of which is on each floor. Of the principal facade, the two ranges between the centre and wings of the building, called the north and south ranges, con sist of ten divisions—those of the upper story are separated by pilasters with foliated capitals. Between each pilaster is a handsome window, capped with a square weather cornice. .The upper floor of the north range is in tended for the museum of' natural history, and the same floor of the south range for the grand library. The elevation of the building consists of a basement, and two stories called the ground floor and upper floor. The two stories are di vided by a cornice and frieze, the latter being or namented with wreathes. The upper story is terminated with a plain dentillated cornice, which forms the parapet ; the whole displaying an air of chaste simplicity. The design was by W. Wilkins, Esq. R. A., and Messrs. H. Lee and Sons are the contractors for the building. The portico and dome of the central part are not yet completed, though they arc proceeding with great rapidity ; and the wings which are to ex tend to the front of the building, are not com menced ; but the above description of them ap plies to the original design adopted by the Coun cil, before the commencement of the edifice ; and we are not aware that the least deviation will take place. The site on which the University stands occupies about seven acres of ground, which was purchased for 30,0001. FARRINGDON DISPENSARY AND LYING- Ix Tuesday the Governors and Friends of this Institution dined together at the London Coffee house, Ludgate-hill ;A. Spottiswoode, Esq. ALP., was in the Chair. About one hundred gentlemen were pre sent, and 1431. 16s. was collected in the course of the evening. THE CONVICT ABBOTT.—Great exertions Lave been made to save this unhappy criminal. Affidavits were yesterday made at the Justice Hall in the Old Bailey ; one of which sworn by Ambrose Peede was to the effect, that in February, 1827, Abbott's wife came to his shop requesting something to care a certain disease. Other affidavits were made to a similar effect, which leaves no doubt that Abbott had been dishonoured by his wife. Many people have come voluntarily fonvard to speak to his general good character. In the early part of the last century several newspapers were published at the low prices of a penny end a half-penny, in the shape of rivals to the London Gazette. One of these was called " The Penny Post ;" another, " The Penny Post, or Tradesman's Select Pacquet ;" a third, " The Penny Weekly journal, or Sa turday Evening's Entertainm en t ;" a fourth, " The Half penny London Jour na l, or the British Oracle." One paper was even published so low as a farthing, and was entitled " All Aliv e an d M erry , or t h e L on don Daily Post.', Specimens of these and many more are,. we believe, pre served among the literary curiosities in the British Museum. (From the London New Price Current of Friday.) SuGAn.—The Sugar Market has been in a state ofgreat stagnation all the wed: ; the average daily sales do not ex ceed 100 hhds. In some instances low browns have been bought at a small reduction, but generally no decline in the prices can be stated, and several holders have withdrawn their Sugar, in the expectation of a brisk market and higher prices early in the next year. . The Refined Market has been dull, and in several instances a decline of fully is. has been submitted to, and it is reported some low Lumps have been sold lower. Fine goods are equally heavy, but the holders have not submitted to the same reduction in prices. Crushed and Bastards are neglected. Molasses continue very doll. Fonoicts Suowns.—ln Foreign Sugars no transactions are reported. There are further arrivals from the Brazils; the plat tity of Sugars about 600 chests. EAST INDIA. SrGAR.-In East India or Mauritius Sugars no sales are reported. COFFEE.—In consequence of the languid demand for Coffee very few sales have been brought forward this week; they consisted of small parcels Jamaica, Demerara, and Berbice ; the whole sold withortt briskness, but support ing the late currency. The fine Berbice was in some de mand, and sold at higher prices for the home csmsump tion of the country. The rank Jamaica also • sold at full prices. We have heard of no purchases of Foreign Cof fee. By public sale this forenoon 294 casks S bags Bri tish Plantation Coffee ; Jamaica and Demerara, some good ord.•Janiaica 365., very good ord. 405., good mid.

Geneva is unvaried. Fr-ax, AND TA LTA )VV. —The actual purchases of Tallow are confined to small parcels for immediate con• sumption. The contracts for parcels to be delivered in February and March are considerable, they are Gd. and 9(1. higher than for parcels on the spot. Hemp is rather lower. In Flax there is no material alteration. Fnurr.-Two public sales of new Cephalonia and Zante Currants have been attempted this week, the greater pro portion of which were damaged, and were taken off Indy from 84s. to 895., but nearly all sound were taken in at 90s. ; a large parcel of new Red Smyrna Raisins has been divided among the trade at 455. a 465. Yesterday also a large parcel of new Valentias was taken off (shout 505.), and a parcel of fine new Turkey pulled Figs, which have been rather scarce this season (nearly all that have been imported at present having been of rather indifferent qua lity), has been sold above 60s. ; ens parcel, tine has rea lized 655., while some of an inferior quality have been sold at 475, a .505.-By public sale to-day, 8,137 drums Pulled Turkey Figs 48s. it 495. an& 48s. a 535., a few 565. ; 20 quarter chests, 240 small boxes, 226 cartoons, 4SB half cartoons Imperial French Plums, quarter chests 101 s. a 1261., small boxes 1055., cartoons 61. 6s. a 71. 75., half cartoons 91. 9s. a 111.

Mr: CROWTHER said, that the great pivot on which all the accusation turned war, that the fees of the secondaries, like all other under sheriffs, were not conformable to that statute, which gives 4d. for every bail to the sheriff, 4d. for every warrant, And 4d. to the bailiff for arrest. Previous to the passing of that act, it had been found that abuses of a mo-t dmgerous nature had crept into the sheriff's offices and as a proof, with the permission of the Lord Mayor. he (Mr. Crowther) would refer to the language of an early reporter, who thus describes the extortion of the sheriffs in taking bail. " The sheriff would some times gain a piece of land, at other times compel the defendant to consent that his son and heir should marry the sheriff's daughter. (Laughter.) Now, though every species of accusation and calumny had been directed against the Secondaries' Office, be (Mr. Crowther) had never heard this accusation even whispered. (Laughter.) That in this age, when property consisted chiefly in land, and there were few moveables, except household stuff, it was easy for the sheriff to take responsible bail, and his risk against their future insolvency was compare. tively light. It was prove that the Justic d i n t h e case o f " Bold e ai v. A nc l ge o s o2 s fl , ."1.1 Lancaster triedne c a a ßolduc' e i a i r i rr l e h 7 s a t B d 9 La c o o s e f e o a l f s e t i e ll o s: : giv ch 450!.; on which Lord Kenyon denied their authority-, end said that if the bailiffs demanded more than the usual fee, which was one guinea, they might be guilty of ex. tortion ; and though his Lordship was as severe rt moralist as ever graced a judicial seat, he did think it necessary to apply the epithet of extortion and oppression to the conduct of the bailiff. His Lordship, however, in thus tacitly allowing the one guinea as the proper fee, was, in strictness, giving ' more than the statute allowed, the sum being only 4d. ; and Sir Richard Phillips, one of the sheriff., of London, in his published letter to the Livery of London, observed, it was ridiculous to expect the duty to be performed then nt the same ratio that it was done near 400 rears ago, and that some inter ference of the Legislature was oh% iously necessary. He likewise complimented the Secondaries' conduct as being liberal and correct. (Hear, hear.) In I f.:22, he (Mr. Crowther) sent a printed statement of the state of the sheriff's fees to every member of the House of Commons, and also to His Majesty's Mi nisters, praying that the Attorney• General might be directed to bring in a bill for the repeal of part of the 23d of Henry VI., and to empower the Judges to settle a reasonable rate of fees for the re muneration of sheriffs, under-sheriffs, &c., and en force their strict observance by severe penalties, to be recorded by summary application; and by these means the subject would be protected from extor tion. That with respect to the criminal conduct of the clerk who had been 40 years confidentially em ployed by the Secondaries, exacting, for his own use, gratuities on bail bonds, far exceeding the custom' y scale, without its having ever come to the know ledge of the Secondaries, nothing but the extreme moderation of the gratuities sanctioned and partici pated by them could have prevented an earlier dis covery of such malpractices. With reference to the misconduct of this clerk, he observed that it was proved by documentary evidence, and after every subterfuge had been resorted to by him, he was compelled to admit his guilt, and he (Mr. Crowther) confidently appealed to the Chilli man and the Committee to corroborate his statement. That although the clerk had no fixed salary, his al lowances were admitted by him to amount to 200/. per a m , mu added to which, he held the sit ua ti on as supervisor of taxes at from SOL to more. That as to the practice of the Secondaries in taking bail bonds instead of the officers, the orders of the Court of Aldermen expressly prohibit any officer front taking a bond; that Mr. Collingridge, the late Se condary, in 1819, offered to relinquish this branch of duty which he bad purchased from the Corpora tion, on a compensation being made upon equitable terms; and that he (Mr.Crowther) last year offered gratuitously to relinquish this unpleasant duty, and to be relieved from all its responsibilities. lie de dared that the instructions from the Secondaries'- office to their clerks were never to insi s t on any ‘ent into a l ong d eta il ( gratuity that was objected to, and, in consequence, i If‘ivtAhim'hi many instance,, n nt s t ei m ßne° e snie t i l ' a o vndTi u t s ; eit liR then o make a considerabl e i mpress i on ) o sgent was received. misrepresentations and erroneous opinions that were so industriously and malignantly circulated to draw forth the odium of the public on the office and the memory of Mr. Collingridge, who had for so many years conducted it with the highest honour. Mr. LEGc;E, who we believe first instigated the inquiries into the abuses of the office, stated that, although he did not mean to charge the Secondary with any criminal participation in the gross and scandalous extortions which had been practised by his officers, yet at the same time he thought he had been guilty of every culpable neglect, in having such an officer as the man Burness, who had been examined butbeforeo n t s l sm l i e li C ira o bs m :liel m abl i T t a t ,n e k e ; , ln.ags a n ak d ecn N oo v i‘ l l, i r o inti aattolitdh have o to u h h a la, kept leobp:tiee beers very C a man of very extravagant habits.

Mr. PELLETT seconded the motion. Mr. Alderman FAREDROTHER hoped that the re quisition would be withdrawn, and a committee up. pointed. Mr. OLDHAM and Mr. JONES concurred. Mr. PEwTRESS moved, as an amendment, that so much of the first part of the motion as related to the application to Parliament should be withdrawn, and that the motion should stand alone for the appoint ment of a Select Committee. Mr. FAYELL seconded the amendment, and Mr. GALLOWAY spoke in support of it. The question was then put, and the amendment " That a Special Committee be now appointed to consider of the fees and duties of the officers of the Sheriffs, awl whether any, and what alterations should lie made therein, and to report their opinion to the Court," was carried unanimously. A Committee was then appointed, and the Court adjourned. PRICY' OF Olh Rape Oil, brown ......--- V/. Os. ...,........

Shrc;blaury We think that a new burial place is required for the parish of Saint Peter at Arches, the present being too thickly tenanted. A few days ago the feelings of the public were outraged by the sexton, who in digging a grave came in contact with the remains of a corpse which had evidently not been interred ninny years. The coffin was decayed ;, but the sexton with his pickaxe tore out parts of the body by piecemeal : the flesh was red, pieces of flannel were still to be seen adhering to it, and there was hair upon theskull. We trust that some remedy will be provided on au application to the proper authorities.—Seconford News.
