EVEN IN G SUN THE QUEEN DOWAGER. It is with extreme regret that we have received in telligence confirming the worst fears respecting the alarming and critical state of the Queen Dow 's health. From communications we have rcceivedtn Sudbury Hall, we regret to state that her Majesty has unhappily been deprived of speech for the last three or four days ; and that it is only by signs that her Majesty's wants and wishes , can be ex pressed. The care and attention of her Majesty's 'in dical attendants have - been incessant ; and the-services of the Royal household have been unremitting. It is the express command of the Queen Dowager that the bul letins be shown to her Majesty, previous to their trans mission to Marlborough House. Immediately on the ar rival of the bulletin in town, copies are despatched to the Queen, Duchess of Kent, and Duchess of Gloucester, Dr. Chambers returned to town yesterday evening, and states that her Majesty is a little better, and gives some faint hopes ; but there is no doubt that her Majesty has been in great danger for some time past. ANOTHER ACCOUNT.—The afflictlng state of debi lity, and the syi,ptoms which indicate imminent dan ger of a fatal terinin-tion to the insidious disease that has taken so firm a hold of her Majesty's constitution, we were the first to announce, from a source in the means of knowledge to communicate the real state of the case, we could well rely. We are sorry to state that no alleviation of the alarming symptoms has been experi enced by the illustrious sufferer ; and that, although, from the nature of the disease, a sudden termination of life may not result, there is but slight hopes that medi cal skill will be successful in arresting its progress, or even of materially checking its inroads upon the essen ial organs of life, for any considerable period. SPIRIT of t_e PUBLIC JOURNALS. reoer eee eveetus reeels Or T.ESTEaIiAT. GLOBE.—By the law of England the unpaid Ma gistrates are the Lope. visor of the far larger number of the pr:zous throughout the kingdom. ;Until wi;lain the last half century they exercised their functions in this, as in almost every other depart ment of their Magisterial office, without control or molestation from Par :aleatory inquiry or public opinion. While the h;_gher °Meer, of the State were allowed to prosecute the policy ambition or interest prescribes, without the interposition of those salutary restraints which have been since gradually in creasing in number tad in strength, it was not very pro bable that the public would be very acute in discerning where securities are wanted in the subordinate branches of administration. The improvement in the public mind, which has gradually exercised its influence upon other subjects of national importance, has included the discipline of criminal prisons withia its range ; and cer tainly, " the secrets of the prison -house," as they have been successively disclosed, have not only been " worth knowing," as they have furnished food for the gratifi cation of curiosity ; they also exhibited a state of things which showed how dangerous it is to intrust ir responsible power to the bands of any body of met), however_ estimable in their private and social rela tions, which, from the inherent infirmity of our na ture, is certain to be abused. We do not suppose that the great body of our unpaid Magistracy, either in tho present, or the former periods of its existence, have been worse than other men. Their actions show that they have not been better. Toe same mo tives which govern other men in their several avoca tions have actuated them. Of these motives it is only necessary to observe, in order to subject them to a jealous scrutiny, that they invariably lead a ma" to seek his own happit esi ; but that it depends (as far as re g trdi ordinary men) in a great degree, upon the situa tion in which a man is placed, whether he will promote that ot_othcre. liente it is the duty of the Legisia lire to take care that every public functionary shall be supplied with a strong motive to perform well 'the duties of his ofil.e. Publ:eity—that is, hating the j ene erea' stete of sevtral prisons laid ba c to the pu ali, eye by means of authentierrel periodreal reports from responsible public etlicers, appointed by the Go esrnment, and wholly unconnected eh's the Magic. trscy, and having authority to enter the prisons at all tire , fi, for the purposes of inspection—seems to be the / .06A powerful check to evil, and the best means of , e ff, ctua si n g goo: 1 . The powers thus subjected to public iti..ieetion and control may not, and probably will not, ap p ie • 4. of this intrusion, but society cannot tail to de rive fora it considerable Leaefirs. STANDARD. --Sir Rebett Peel has taken the A ari.c.=t opportunity of ti.e po3scsion of office to re- AuM • that cLeracier cf a real and useful Re:former with wlsit h he commenced his pubic life, and which he has 'sever for a moment Lid aside, except when disabled by c , reuaestanees from acting in it. The reform in the adaiirristretien of the law, which be began nearly 30 years age, with so much benefit to the public, end which he vigoroealy proseeutid while in office from 1823 to 1827, is to be again taken seriously in band. A corn missioi.—it is scarcely necessary to say an unpaid cam mission—composed of the principal Judges in equity, has been appointed to consider of the manner in which suits in that department of the administration of justice, ever tvhich they preside, may be rendered rose complicated, expensive, and tedious than they have hid her to been. if th, se Curamissi diseilaw , the duty coed led to them honestly and boldly, end tree from pr. , febsional prejudices —and it were unjust to doubt them—they will confer upon the couetry a benefit which it is impossible to .overrate. Tee Courts of Equity are new prexticelly closed against all the peordc, except where objects of very great value are ceecerned, and practicaily..closed :against the less wealthy, whareser orey be the object. If the Courts of Equity are good for any thew, it is as good confined to the wealthy ; and these Courts we often a positive evil to the poor dragged within their meshes, without the power either to de fend themselves when enthr:'lled, or to escape from tl.e thraldom. It is, however, to present an in adequate. view of the evils arising from the expense and tediousness of equity proceedings, to limit these .evils to the cases immediately of equity jurisdiction ; ebree-fourths or more of the oppression and in islet-ice committed by the aid of common law process is the effect of the inaccessible charac ter of relief in the Equity Courts. Take the common case of a debt unjustly charged, against which ,it may happen, from a thousand blameless causes, the party sued has no remedy at law. Equity provides a aemedy against the injustice to which this attempt at ;fraud must in the Common Law Courts inevitably lead. 'The remedy consists in a rigid examination of the plaintiff, and other means ; but at present this remedy, by an equity process, is so dear, that it is never resorted to, .except when large sums are in jeopardy, and even .then it need scarcely be said that it can be resorted to wanly by the ,omparatively rich. Thus the paralysis in :the Equity Courts invades the whole administration of the Law, and nurses a race of cheats and swindlers, whose malignant influence upon the higher interests of credit and commerce, and even of public morals, can :e.arcely be conceived by those who have not long in ve,.•ireated and seriously considered the matter. FIRE At PRIOR PARK.—At the moment of going to press, 7ve learned that Prior Park, Bath, the residence of the Canelic Bishop, Dr: Baines, was on fire yesterday morning, doing the hours of Divine Service. Captain Carroll and the police were called out of church to assist in extinguishing the flames. We have received' no particulars, and therefore cannot state the cause of the fire, nor the extent of the injury sustained.

A SHARP AND A FLAT.—On Tuesday, the 19th, a captain of a boat, rejoicing in the very euphonious coan omen of Ner Twissle, sent a bright youth named George b Mayer to the keeper of the Park-street lock, to inquire if a letter, which lie expected to reaeiye from Gloucester, had been left at his house, and, if so, desired ,him to optn.it, and take the office order which it would contain to the post-office to be cashed. Mayer accord ingly started on his mission, and, falling in with a fellow -11am 'ell William Snarl, very kindly told him his errand. Snell inott disinteresteoly offered to accompany the simpleton, and on procuring the letter the precious pair went to the post_office, where Snell made his mark (as if he were the veritable Ncr Twissle) and touched the .cash.

COURT OF CHANCERY, Nov. 8. PEPPERCORN V. PEACOCK. This case came before the Court upon the certificate of the Court of Common Pleas. The bill was filed by the plaintiff, Mr. Peacock, together with a person named Harrod, who were the trustees for sale of the property in question, for the specific performance of a contract entered into by the defendant Peacock, for the purchase of, certain estates from the plaintiff. By a conveyance dated in March, 1838, the estate in question was con veyed to the plaintiffs as trustees to sell; in that charac ter they caused the estates to be put up by auction, stating that the subject-matter of the sale was the rever sion expectant upon the death of a lady who was then forty-four years of age. The conditions of sale were, that the purchase should be completed before the 23th of March, but in case it was not, the purchaser was to pay interest on the purchase money at the rate of five per cent. At that sale the defendant purchased a part of the property, but on inquiry he objected to the title which the plaintiffs derived under the will. Upon this objection being raised, considerable corres pondence passed between the solicitors of both parties, and ultimately the plaintiffs filed their bill to enforce the specific performance of the contract. Upon the case coming on for argument before the Vice-Chancellor of England he directed a specific performance of the con tract, and from this decision the defendant appealed, and upon that appeal being argued before Lord Cottenham he directed a special case for the opinion of the Court of Review as to whether, the plaintiffs under the will had a good title to the estates in question. That special case having been argued before the Court of Common Pleas, that Court certified , that a good title had been shown, and in that state of things the case now came before the Court. The Court of . Common Pleas having , decided in favour of the title, the principal questions now for ceusi deration were as to the payment of the interest by the, de_ ft and thecosts. Mr. TINNEY and Mr. TENNANT appeared for the plaintiffs, and contended that the defendant ought to pay interrlt,, at the rate of five per cent., and all the costs. Mr. GIRDLESTONE and Mr. WRAY, on the part of the tlet'cedaat," submitted that, in consequence of the circum stp.ucc3 that had taken place, the defendant was not bound to pay interest, and that the costs ought to be borne by the plaintiffs. The LORD CHANCELLOR, at the conclusion of the ar guments, gave judgment, decreeing a specific perform ance of the contract of the purchase, ordering the de fendant to pay three per cent. interest upon the purchase money, and directing each party to pay his own costs. LOLLS' ';O(.1:1; 14.), 8. - FAN :=LAcia v. 17 ANEL3GII. Mr. PZItIBEETON, with whom was Mr. EOM ILLY, moved for an order to the Accountant-CA.anetal to transfer to the petitioners, Ann Marston, the repre sentative of Sarah Antonia Jones, a cet;,ain fiord be queathed to her by the will of her late father, and which WAS now in custody of the Court. The testator, Thomas Lord Viscount Ranelagh, made is will on the 20th August, 1814, and a codicil thereto on the 18th December, 1818. By this codicil he be quearhed to his daughter, Marianne Jones, 2001. to be paid forthwith; to his daughters Sarah Antonia Jones, and Louisa Jones, the sum of 4,0001. sterling each; and to his two sons, Thomas Cowley Jones, and Thomas Edward Jones, 2,0001. each during their natural lives, wiat legal interest at 5 per cent., to be paid to all of them in equal quarterly payments, commencing from the day of his decease, till his son, the Hon. Thomas Jones, or his heir in entail, attained his or her 21st year of age, and in case of the demise of any of the above parties without legitimate issue, then his or her proportions to be divided equally amongst the sur vivors; and the testator's son, the present Lord Rene lagh, was appointed residuary legatee. A bill having been filed, it was contended on behalf of the two daugh ters and two youngest sous, that they took an absolute interest in their respective legacies, on the ground that the gift over in cas of the demise of any of them without issue was to be referred to an indefinite failure of issue. The case came before the Master of the Rolls in 1832, and his Honour decided that the presumption was that the testator had not in contemplation an indefinite failure of issue, and his Lordship directed the sums to be secured in Court, and the dividends paid to the legatees for their respective lives, liberty to any person to apply on the death of each legatee, and on appeal the Lord Chancellor (Lord Brougham) confirmed the judg ment of the Master of the Rolls. Ono of the legatees, Sarah Antonia Jones, being dead without issue, Mr. PEbIDERTON applied on behalf of her ~ xecuror to transfer to her her portion of the .funds in Court, and contended that if any of the legatees died issue, the testator intended the gift over should. take effect. • 1".1r. TINNEY and Mr. Bice on be'ialf of Thomas Cow ley Junes, and Mr. KINoneSLEY on behalf of the other surviving children, contended that the death of the le,;:;atee could not determine that she took an absolute interest. The Court having said that she was not en titled to it when the case came before it on a former occasion, it lay upon them to show that though not entitled to it when the decree was pronounced, subse quent circumstancesgave it to her, but the circumstances that had occurred, prevented the possibility of her having a better interest. Mr. TURNER argued that the fund should be divded, and one-third be given to each sin river. Mr. PE3tnEaToN rose to reply, when His LORDSIIIP observed, 'that he feared the decision of the Court was binding upon him, and requested to hear the Learned Gentleman on that point. :Ir. PE3II3I&II,TON said they must altogether t'iscard the report, except as a legal authority. This legacy having been carried to the .separate account of this legs tee, that legatee was entitled to present a petition for the purpose of ohtain.kng ~:payment. . And lest his Lordship 'should say,. that to make this order don-, elusive against the right of , the party, it must be so clear as to prevent doubt, the only proposition in support of this argument was to suppose the parties entitled now were entitled at the time when the case came before the Court. It that could be maintained, he admitted they were tont:laded, but otherwise not. The simple order being 'to carry the fund over to the se parate account, and the dividends to be paid to the legatee for life, with liberty'for ether persons to apply at her death, what he was asking was not inconsistent with an absolute interest. He would, therefore, submit to his Lordship that in conformity with the practice of I the Court, whatever weight might be given to the authority of this case, there was nothing in the order produced to exclude the right of the repre sentative of this lady from saying that, in the event which had happened, no person could claim in competition with him, and therefore he hoped the Court would make the transfer to him. Lord LANGDALE said the case came on under circum stances of extreme difficulty. He must assume, in the ab sence of any statement to the contrary, that the very point in the case contended for to-day was made in the pleading; beyond all doubt it was discussed at the hearing of the cause and a claim then being made that Sarah Antonia Jones was entitled absolutely to this legacy, the Court deter mined that she was entitled only to an order to place tkis money to her account, and ordered the dividend to be paid to her with liberty to any person to apply at her death. He could not help concluding from that that that claim of this lady was absolutely negatived by the Court, because notwithstanding the probability of a claim to be afterwards raised on behalf of children, there being then an interest, alleged to be vested, it seemed to him incumbent on the Court to decree specifically that the right existed, or to do that which would amount to a negative of that right, and he thought the Court had done the latter. It, there fore, appeared to him that, under the form of the order, he was precluded from decision. If it were not so, then came the question, whether, there being no decision in the case, there would be authority binding him to act ; but all preceding authorities being in favour of such a con clusion the question . was, whether he was not bound to adhere to.those authorities, and whether it would be con sistent with his duty to make a decision to that effect directly contrary to that of preceding Judges. If both these difficulties were got rid of, he should still have exceeding difficulty. The words appeared to him extremely doubtful, and he must have taken considerable time to consider them, but under the circumstances, he thought himself precluded. He thought it, however, better not to say further, be cause, if the parties had a right, they had a right to bring it before a tribunal, not fettered, by the decision in the case. The costs must be costa in the cause. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, Nov. 8. (Before Vice-Chancellor WicruA3l.) - - - . CLAYTON V.

The plaiotiff totally disclaimed any imputation against Mr. Hot& having wan wilfully or fraudulently a party to the application of the money to his own use by Mr. Balguy, and the consequent loss of I it ; but. counspj on his behalf submitted that he (the i plaintiff) had an equitable rirrlit to sue him as being trustee, and to .obtain fro in tioa the -er , -vment of the . -, I , t ,, , suns claimed. • - , to , ty t TIT: Mn, COOPER, (4.0. cw:th yyjy):ll WAS Mr. IJoet gram), contended that the plaintiff must have been aware of the manner in which the trust-fund was disposed of. Certain accounts had been rendered to the plaintiff by the defendant, whereby such a knowledge, namely, that of the mode of disposal of the fund, must have been at tained by the plaintiff, and this circumstance, joined with his acquiescence in the disposal of the money, which consisted in placing the fund solely under the control of Balguy, counsel submitted deprived the plaintiff of any right to succeed in the claim now put forward. The arguments in the cause were of great length, oc cupying the Court the whole of Saturday and to-day, to within a short time of its rising. His HoNoun stated that he would give judgment on Monday next, and rose at half-past three o'clock. Mr. Wilcock and Mr. James Russell appeared for the • COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, Nov. 8. SM.I.TH V. CLINCH. This was an action of trespass brought by the plaintiff, a widow, residing at Witney, in Oxfordshire, against the defendant, a banker and brewer of that place, for break ing and entering the plaintiff's premises and taking away certain goods. The defendant pleaded not guilty, and that the goods and chattels were not the property of the plaintiff. The case was tried before Mr. Justice Williams at the last Oxford Assizes, and a verdict had for the plaintiff subject to a motion for leave to set aside the verdict and enter a nonsuit. A rule to that effect having been subsequently obtained, Mr. WAKELY now appeared to show cause against the rule, which had been obtained on the ground that there was no evidence to fix the defendant with the proceed ings had under the writ. The facts of the case were as follow :—ln November, 1835, the plaintiff, Smith (since dead) executed a power of attorney to Clinch, for a sum of 1,0001. money lent. In February, 1837, a mortgage was made for a further security. In December, 1839, judgment was entered up upon the warrant of attorney, and on the morning of the 16th Dec., three days after wards, Smith died. On the same evening the writ issued, clearly, and, as it was admitted on all hands, after Smith died, and on the following day the goods were seized for a sum of 9071. 10s. The case afterwards came be fore Mr. Justice Coleridge, and on the 31st January, 1840, the writ was set aside on the ground of its having issued after the death of Smith, and on the 13th Febru ary the order issued, on which the present action was brought, the proceeds of the sale having been paid into Court, and the action was brought to ascertain what damages the plaintiff was entitled to for the seizure of her goods, it having been proved that the goods which were sold for 1751. were worth 501. more. The Lear:Jed Counsel said the writ in this case having been set aside, was the same as if no writ had issued, and the question for theconsideration of the Court now was, whether there was evidence to fix the defendant in the writ of fi. fa. The principal evidence on that point was the similarity of the name, and the production of the office copy of the affidavit, on which the execution issued, from the rule office. Now, he apprehended, that it would not; be denied that that was a document which might be received in evidence. It appeared that the defendant had attended the sale of the plaintiff's goods, and had given directions respect ing some of the articles, and it was quite clear, under all the circumstances, that the defendant had acted in the case, and had rendered himself liable. Mr. ALEXANDER was heard in support of the rule. The question was whether the defendant had done any thing by which he had made himself liable to an action of damages to Mrs. Smith. Mr. Justice COLERIDGE wished to know how the Learned Counsel could get over the difficulty of the de fendant having interfered at the sale, and directecl.some of his men to go and measure the potatoes ? Mr. ALEXANDER submitted that was merely heai3ay evidence, and that the defendant might have been a purchaser. Besides, the evidence of the defendant's attorney went distinctly to negative any interference on his part, because, when the Sheriff's officer came to him with the writ, the defendant's attorney said "go and do your duty on your own responsibility. I will give you no authority." Now, the evidence on the subject of the defendant's signature to the affidavit on which the writ issued, appeared to him extremely incon clusive. The original document was not produced in Court, and there was no means of testing the witness's knowledge of the defendant's signature. Lord DE:smax said it had been decided by Lord El lenborough that the original document ought to be produced, and that opinion was concurred in by the Court of Common Pleas. Mr. Justice Garrow, in com menting upon the opinion of Lord El lenborough in a subsequent case, thought the production of an office copy sufficient where the affidavit it self was the on ly question, but where there was an allegation that the affidavit was made by a parti cular party, then that the original document ought to be produced, and he (Lord Denham) confessed that where die object was to prove the identity of the party, he thought the Cosa ought to have the original document. ALEXANDER submitted that the . ;:l'idence of iden tity upon that point being so extremely inconclusive, there was nothing on which the other party could rely but the alleged interference of the defendant at the sale, and that he had already explained as being by no means sufficient to bind the defendant, and render him liable. The Learned Counsel, after referriug to several authorities on the subject, concluded by sub mitting that the defendant was entitled to a nonsuit, and that the rule ought to be made absolute. The COURT thought there ought to be a new trial. Rule for a new trial absolute. INSOLVENT DEBTOR'S COURT, Nov. 8. IN RE CHRISTOPHER SMITH. ' The insolvent in this case had been a commission agent, a money-lender, and lastly, by means of accom modation bills, succeeded in getting from Mr.Edmonds, an extensive wholesale button-manufacturer, a large quantity of goods with which he set up business in St. Mary-at-Hil I. In the many eases which come before this Court, arising from what is vulgarly called " kite flying" few equalled, and certainly none exceeded the facts in relation to this one, as detailed in evidence. It appeared from the testimony of Mr. Edmonds, the opposing creditor, and several other witnesses, that the insolvent had been at first a bankrupt, afterwards in 1832, he passed through this Court as an insolvent, and thirdly had been tried at the Old Bailey, on a charge of forging the name of a person purporting to be the acceptor cf a bill of exchange within four months previous to his arrest, at the slut of the oppos ing creditor. He managed get 40C1. worth of goods from him, for which he gave him bills drawn by him self, and accepted, or purporting to be accepted by per sons without a kcal habitation or a name. The Learned COEIMISSIONER said this was a case which required the attention of the, court in no ordi r-xy degree, and he should therefore -order it to stand eve,: till to-morrow. POLICE INTELLIGE — NCE. MANSION-HOUSE. Three wretched girls were brought before Alderman Iloopmt, charged with having broken windows for the purpose of being sent to Brideweli. A policeman stated,that having, between one and two o'clock in the morning, heard a smashing of glass, he went to ascertain the cause, and saw the three girls,who told him that they had committed the offence, and that they wished to be locked up out of the cold. He took them to the station-house, and from thence, by order of the Inspector, to the union in Cannon-street, where Mr. Thwaites, the relieving officer, immediately attended to the case, and offered them orders of admission to- the house at Peckham, but they refused to go that establish ment, and witness conveyed them to the station-house. Mr. Tnwaites said that, as was frequently the case, he was k - aocked up at an unseasonable hour, after the regular labours of the day, and he offered the orders to the girls, all of whom had been at Peckham before, but they re jected the orders, and he had no alternative but to send them back to the station-house. 1 1 :r. Hobler intimated to the Alderman that the rejec tion of the offer was by no means to be wondered at, as it-was no tkitle to walk four or five miles between one and two in the morning, after the exhaustion of the day. Aldermen Hoo2Ea—indeed, it is a hard sentence upon poor fatigued persons to send them at such an hour to such a distance. lem sure that is not what ought to be caned relief. Thwaites raid that he had it not in his power to do any;:hing more for those who were brought to him. The multitctdes received at Peckham were beyond all cr, , tlibi!itv. They hal 2-1.0 persons in the house a couple 6 ' of weeks ago, an d a si eons sprit of insubordination had exhibited itself of late there. The g;rls stated that they had broken the windows in orkler to be sent to prison, as plison, bad as it was, was better than the Putout house, of which they knew quite enough; All:that they could expect at Peckham-, house was to be turned out in the morning with,rt little bresd. They had been all round London Unions, and they must say that prison was greatly preferable, what ever people might state. -Mr. Booker, the overseer of Bishopsgate parish, stated, that the Guardians of the East London Union were to. hold a meeting next day on the suhject of purchasing premises in town, for the reception of destitute persons iike the defendants. All the Guardians of the Unions in the City would, he believed, attend on so important an occasion.. The East London Union Guardians had seen one of the Assistant Poor-law Commissioners on the subject, and it was believed that premises would be pur chased. The conduct of the younger prisoners iu the workhouse was so bad, that the old people, who were en titled to some little comfort, had the most miserable lives in that asylum. Girls like those at the bar were in the habit of pelting each other with bread and pudding, and the house was really a hell upon earth.

Iplpuli oblert,he dertut ju .4 n. iby\h, stated the clrcnilisiancF3 °se advice the applicant briefly :—Edward Markiew, the son the AilarliFew; and another young m an , w h ose name was John' Williams, became acquainted with a Mr. Snow, who had lately ar rived from Australia, and was induced by the represen- Isil:ons of that person to make prep3rations to go to Port is the expectation of a prosperous result. Mr. Murk ' THE SUN, LONDON. TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 841. low went to very, considerable expense to fit out his son for toe voyage, and Mr. Snow, who was a very plausible person, and appeared to be qualified to at - ivise young people upon such an adventive, undertook to superin tend the arrangements, and was unfortunately entrusted with the greater part of the Money which was to be paid for the voyage. What gave a singular complexion of villany to the affair was the fact that Mr. Snow not only decamped with the money of the two young men, but actually took off the property of his own sister, who was also going out to Australia, and whom be had prevailed upon to marry John Williams for the purpose, as now was manifest, of stripping her of all the property she had in the world. Having undertaken to manage the affairs of the voyage for the young people, Mr. Snow sent on board some heavy trunks which he said contained much valuable property, and the ship, which was called the Pathfinder, sailed from Lon don about theee weeks ago. As soon, however, as she arrived in the Downs, Mr. Snow and his wife left her, and appointed to meet her at Plymouth, but upon the arrival of the Pathfinder at that port, no such individuals were to be found. Edward Macklew, John rnd Mrs. Williams, a poor young creature of not more than fifteen years of age, then ascertained, to. their surprise and grief, that no settlement had been made for their passage by Mr. Snow, and they were obliged to leave the vessel, and make the best of their way to London. Be fore, however, they quitted the ship, they, by the advice of the Captain, broke open Mr. Snow's trunks, and on their opening, his baseness was confirmed by what they saw in them, for the valuable property was mere rubbish. Alderman HOOPER said that the case was really the most heartless he had ever heard of. Mr. Marklew stated that the condition of the poor young girl, Mrs. Williams, was calculated to excite the deepest compassion, and the conduct of her brother betrayed, without doubt, the greatest possible enormity. Mr. Snow had actually persuaded her to give up 331. a year, which she had to live upon, in order to supply her with the money of which he subsequently deprived her. The poor girl had 181. a-year, as the daughter of' a deceased Lieute nant, and die was allowed 151. a-year by the second husband of her mother, and her matrimonial adventure destroyed those means completely. She was now at his (Mr. Marklew's house possessed of no more clothes han elsd Alderman HOOPEE—How much money had he of his sister's ? Mr. Marklew said that Mr. Snow had got 86/. of hers, every farthing of which she was possessed. Mr. Edward Ma :klew said that Mr. Snow had under taken to see that everything was right, and took him and Mr. Williams and his wife under his protection, as they were all so young. When the vessel got to the Downs, Mr. Snow said that he had to leave her for four days, and would meet her. at Plymouth. He (Mr. E. Marklew) proposed to him to leave his wife on beard, but, after a good deal of whispering between husband and wife, Mrs. Snow positively refused to stay in the vessel, and off they both went. Mr. Snow had pre viously called attention to one of his trunks particularly, and said, putting his hand upon it, " Mind this, for all my hopes are upon it," and when it was broken open it was found staffed with old paper, old iron, and bones. Alderman HOOPER—Yes, it was quite evident that it was premeditated. What did he say to induce you to go to Australia. Mr. Edward Marklew—He told us that he kept a tavern in Melbourne, in Port Philip, called the YaiLmv Steam Packet Hotel; in which he was making a vast deal of money; and that our chances were very great. We had the utmost reliance upon him, particularly as his own sister was with us. He was to have met us at the Royal Hotel in Plymouth; and Captain Metcalf of the Pathfinder kept us on board, waiting for him, till the vessel was obliged to sail. Mr. Mears, the broker, had come on board on the fifth day after Mr. Snow left us, end informed us that we could not go in the vessel, as Mr. Snow had made no settlement. HATTON-GARDEN. Yesterday George Chay alias George Brown, an elderly man, of reduced appearance, was charged by Charlotte Watson, a widow, residing at No. 2, Abbey-place, Coram-street, Brunswick-square, with having stolen an umbrella. The prosecutrix stated that about a fortnight ago the prisoner called at her house to inquire after some apart ments, when he proposed that he should board and lodge in the house. She agreed to receive him on these terms, and he entered the apartment ; and, after bein g there a week, one morning when it was raining, he requested her to lend him an umbrella, which hung in the passage, but she declined doin g so . She subsequently missed the umbrella, and she saw no more of the prisoner until yes terday morning, when she accidentally met him in Judd street, Brunswick-square, and gave him into custody. Police constable 187 S stated that at the station house the prisoner admitted that he had pledged the um brella for 2s. The prisoner, it may be recollected, a few weeks ago was charged at this Court with having stolen some wer.r ing apparel, &c., from a house in Bell-yard, Fltet-street, where he had taken lodgings, and on that occasion he gave his name George Brown; that he was a Bachelor of Arts, and had been educated at Caius College, Cambridge. His answers to questions relative to that College convinced Mr. Greenwood that he had told the truth, and the prosecutor not pressing the charge against him he was discharged, when he was relieved. out of the poor-box. The prisoner now said that he could not justify his conduct, but he was driven by ur gent distress to pledge the umbrella. The prisoner begged for mercy, saying that he was in great distress, and he must have starved had it not been for some tem porary relief which he had received from a clergyman, whom he knew at college. It was his intention to have paid the prosecutrix and returned the umbrella: "" 1 Mr. COMIIE said that such tricks must be put a stop to, and he would convict him in the penalty of 205., and 25., the value of the umbrella, for illegally pawning, and, in default of payment, three weeks' imprisonment, with hard labour, in the House of Correction. Prisoner (clasping his hands entreatingly)oh ! I beg of you not to send me to prison. Pray, reconsider. Do allow me to speak to You., Mr. COMBE refused, and informed the prisoner that he would be liberated if the penalty was paid any time within three weeks. He was eventually conveyed to prison. THAMES-OFFICE. ROBBERY BY A POLICEMAN.--yesterday William James Chandler, a metropolitan police constable of the Thames division, was charged with stealing a watch and other pro perty belonging to a sailor boy named John Lingworthy. The prosecutor stated that he had lately been paid off from a ship, and on Wednesday last he went into a pawn shop opposite the St. Katharine's Dock to sell his watch, and while a man at the door was looking at it, the prisoner came up, took the witch out of his hand, and asked him where he had got it. He told the prisoner his father had bought the watch and given it him, which was true. The prisoner said he hoped that was correct, and inquired of him where he had procured two bundles of clothes he had with him. He informed the prisoner that the clothes wore his own, and that he bought them of a Jew slopseller. The prisoner said he must show him the shop where the clothes were purchased, and he did so. After that the policeman said he must go to his house, and stop there, and he would try and get him a ship, and get him off to sea. He had just before told the prisoner he wanted a ship. He went home with the prisoner, who kept the watch in his possession, and dined with him. After dinner he went out with the prisoner, who said he would get him a ship. They went to a great many places together, and the prisoner gave him the slip and left him. He sought for the policeman's dwelling, but he was unable to find out the place again, and he did not know where to find the prisoner, who retained possession of his watch, as well as his two bundles of clothes. On Sunday morning he met the prisoner in High-street, Wapping ; and he asked witness what he had been doing and where he had been to. He told him that he hai been looking after him, on which the prisoner asked him what he was going to do. He said that he should go to the police-office, and the prisoner begged of him not to do that, and took him honie, where he delivered up the clothes to him, and promised to re store his watch at some future time, and leave it at the Three Crowns, where he was lodging. A silver watch, chain, and seals were here produced, and the boy identified them as his property. Some corrobative evidence was then produced, and it was also proved that the prisoner had pawned the pro perty. The prisoner, on being called on for his defence, said his legal adviser had directed him t o reserve i t ; and he should do so, for he was innocent of the charge. Mr. BRoDEnIP committed him to Newgate to take his trial for the felony. where the mutton came from, and said that some of it was brought to the house by her son and the rest by I her lodger. The prisoner was then removed to the station house, and Cooper afterwards made a further search in the drawers, and he found a knife ground very sharp at the point, calculated for killing sheep, and also 31. more money, and a large bag that, from its appearance, had evidently been used to carry hot fat in. The meat that had been found was afterwards carefully examined by a butcher, who stated that none of the joints had been severed by a butcher, and also spoke confidently to the f',,ct of the joints found in the house of the prisoner, co,..esponding with the skin of the prosecutor's sheep that was discovered in the field. In answer to a question from the Magistrate, Inspector Collier said that active search had been made after ti►e parties mentioned by the prisoner, but they had ab scended and the police had not been able to take Them. The prisoner, who, by the advice of her attorney, declined to make any answer to the charge, was then committed for trial, but upon a communication being made to the bench by the Inspector it was arranged +hat she should be brought up again if the other parties were apprehended. CROYDON POLICE. An old woman, apparently between sixty and seventy, named Elizabeth Holmes , was brought before M essrs. Reid and Currie for final examination upon the charge of feloniously receiving a quantity of mutton, part of a sheep that had been stolen from Mr. Walter, a farmer at Purley., near Croydon, well knowing that it had been stolen. Mr. Richards appeared in support of the charge, and M - r. R. Russell attended for the prisoner. The circum stances of the case were of rather an unusual character. It, appeared from the te,7Einony of several witnesses that on Saturday , night, the 24th of October, the prose cutor s shepherd placed a flock of sheep, consisting of 152 ewes and two rams, in one of his fields at Purley, and on his going to the fold the next morning be ob served footsteps, and saw that the fold had been. dis turbed, and upon his counting the sheep he ascertained that one of the ewes was gone. A search was made and the skin of the lost sheep, with the head and the greater part of the back, were found in an adjoining field, and in consequence of information received by the police, Cooper, one of the constables of the P divi sion, the next day went to the prisoner's cottage in Selsdon-lane; and upon seeing her, he asked her some questions, when she denied.- that she had either a hus band or a lodger in the house. The constable then in quired what sl.o had for diviner the day before, and she ' replied that }rut 'nothing but some tea and bread and butter, ant ::,;(; ,O.S;3'teld hi m t h at s h e was very poor and was reCein-- ;4!e011.v-1 from the union, and that she had not eaten anyhiett for a fortnight. The constable then searched the ho use , an d i n a cupboard he found loin of boiled mutton, and when he showed it tq the prisoner, she said she 13;;4 quite f u ept she had that in Chu house, ::id she s4id she 'had bought it of a butclfer whose name she did not kn o w.- The POP.Viiblik seeing a pot boiling on the fiN, asked what it contained ; and tie prisOner with an oath, declared there was nothing but turnips in it, but on the constable stirring it up with a rclici speedily brought to light another great lump of mutton, and in fi ebest of drawers in tie room he fecund a leg, a ;clip, yid some other.joints of mutton, and also twq hao - s, which the prisoncv told wi n contained some " balfpenoe u to pay - her rent with, but upon his exa mining them, he found they contained 12/. Is. in gold and silver. The constable then told the prisoner that he must take her into custody, when she replied that she ho,Qed he would not do to, for that she knew 119thil CORONER'S INQUEST. An inquest was held at four o'clock, yesterday even ing, at the Grapes public-house, Bow-street, before Mr. Higgs and a Jury, on the body of Michael Aungier, who had been found dead on being removed from a cab on the morning of Saturday last. Mr. Abrahams attended professionally for the prose cutors, and Mr. Scard for the parties charged on suspicion with having eclministered to the deceased deleterious chugs, which caused his death. John Hanley, rn °Meer to the Sheriff of Middlesex, deposed that he had levied a warrant, by order of the Sheriff, on the house of John Joseph Paccard, No. 59, Drury-lane, and he had put the dec ease d, Mi c h ae l Aun gier, in possession. 1„e had seen the body of the deceased on Saturday, and it was the same per son. On Friday last, at about twelve o'clock, when he had put him in possession, he was pei fectly sober and apparently in good health. Ho had known the man during the last eighteen months, and he believed him to have been of sober habits. He had been over the house since Friday, and he believed nothing had been removed from it. He had employed the deceased in the same way before, and he had never known h:m to be subject to fits. John Kemp, a cab driver, in addition to his evidence published in The Sun on Saturday, said the deceased when put in the cab was alive, but he groaned, and seemed completely insensible. On being refused admit tance at Chancery-lane he drove to Bow-street, and took the deceased out of the cab and placed him on the steps of a door. He appeared at that time to be dead. A policeman came up and took him on a stretcher to the Bow-street station-house. On going to Chancery-lane he tried to rouse the de ceased, but he could not do so. The deceased had been half an hour in the cab, when the witness had taken him to the station-house. The deceased smelt strongly of rum, or brandy, or some such drink. The deceased had fallen down twice while sitting in the cab —the first time in Chancery-lane, when the witness lifted him up ; and the second time in Bow-street, before witness had taken him out. He received half-a-crown at the Hummums from the gentlemen who were with him on the box. The three gentlemen assisted in putting the deceased into the cab. The deceased had been kept by the witness on the steps of the house in Bow-street about five minutes when the policeman came up and took him to the station-house. Witness could not say where the deceased had died. Mr. Griffith Foulkes, of No. 2, Russell-st feet, stated that he was the landlord of the house occupied by Mr. Paccard. The witness then handed over a letter he had received on Saturday morning from Mr. Paccard to the following effect :—" How would you advise me to act in this matter ? The man got intoxicated last night, and my brother and Mr. Kennot thought it best to take him out for a drive." Mr. Foulkes replied to this letter as follows :—" If Mr. Paccard is in the house Mr. Foulkes would advise him to come out, for he is not perhaps aware that the officer who was sent out in the cab is now dead." The witness then stated that he had a claim on Paccard for only 131., or a quarter's rent. The further examination of witnesses was then post poeed till two o'clock this day, the presence of the Coroner being required at another inquest. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL'S.—YESTERDAY.

The Sun of Oct. 23 you state that a great many of our small line-of-battle ships are to be reduced to 50 gun frigates, similar to the Dublin, Winchester, &c., so as zo compete with the large frigates of Ame rica and France. You are mistaken in supposing that the Winchester, Southampton, President, and many others of the same class are of a similar force to the Dublin, Warspite, &c., though they mount the same number of guns. To explain this clearly I will go back to the late American war. In consequence of the American frigates, which carried 24-pounders, taking three of our large frigates, mounting 18-pounders, seve ral ships were built about the same size and force as the then first class American frigates. The Winchester, Southampton, Portland, and others are of this class ; they are about 1,400 tons, and until the late change in the armament mounted long 24-pounders on the main : deck, with a complement of 400 men . Th e P res id ent, ..Writhe same class, was built on the plan of the American President, which ship we captured. Still taking the lead in having very large frigates, the Americans dis continued building any of similar force to those they possessed, and have ever since built a still larger class, nearly 1,800 tons, mounting 54 guns, long 32-pounders, on the main deck, having ports on the gangways to en able them (when required) to mount 62 guns. To meet this class, and also the new French double-banked frigates of 62 guns, the Barham, Dublin, and about a dozen other small line-of-battle ships were cut down, and one (the Vernon) built. They mount 50 guns, long 32- pounders, on the main deck, and ate about 1,750 tons. They are as far superior to the Winchester class as that class is to the old 18-pounder frigate. As much ignorance exists on these points, I am anxious that the non-professional public should have the subject explained to them, that they may not again form such wrong opinions respecting naval actions as they did when two or three of our frigates were captured by the Americans in 1812. I know it is difficult to make those ignorant of the subject understand that one frigate of 50 guns may be far inferior in force to another frigate of 50 guns ; but when they know that one is 1,400 tons, mounts 24-pounders on the main deck, with a crew of 400 men, and the other 1,750 tons, mounts 32-pounders on the main deck, with a crew of 500 men, they will see what a great difference really exists. By the new armament in our service the 24-pounders in the second class, and the 18-pounders is the third class, have been changed for 32-pounders medium guns, of the same weight as their old guns, but of course much in ferior in range and effect to long 32-pounders. This does not alter the class, as the President can only be considered an equal match for an American frigate of the same size, whether she mounts medium 32-pounders or long 21-pounders. To make all this plainer, I will endeavour to put the classes in a tabular form : Guns. FIRST CLASS FRIGATES. Tons, American Brandywine Potomac, &c. 1770 54 long 32pdrs 550 English Vernon, and 11750 50 long 32pdrs 500 Razees SECOND CLASS. C United States American -, 1 1500 52 long 24pdrs 450 ( Constitution Winchester English 11400 50 medium 32pdrs 400 President, &c. THIRD CLASS. American / Macedonia CPnaress 7 •:=va.4; Druid, . . ) '. , eLgasear _ Eng,as.l - )Bionde, Thalia, &c. 1 , 1100 42 medium 32pdrs 300 i I am not certain the Americans have adopted t'ae plan of arming a;i ships with 32-pounders of differ ent length and weight ; I have thf'..efore given them their old armaments. The Fren)a were, I believe, the first that did so. The calibre of their guns is a little larger than ours, their 301 b. shot being about 33i1b. English weight. By this table it will be seen that each class of Ame rican ships has a fair match, in a corresponding class in our navy ; but to expect either of the smaller classes to contend successfully with ships of the class above them would be expecting more than our navy ever did (with one or two exceptions) throughout the last French war. That we should attempt it, and sometimes succeed, I have no doubt, particularly with our present system of gunnery ; but should the attempt (which it sometimes would with much inferior force) prove unsuccessful, it must not be supposed that our navy is inferior to what it once was. This should be determined only by ac tions between ships of the same class ; and should a war with America be forced on us, on no point will a clear understanding of the force of our ships be more necessary than on the two classes of 50 gun frigates ; for if one of our second class was captured by them, they would gladly seize on any statement in an English paper that went to prove that class equal to their largest frigates. The fear of this has made me trouble you with such a long explanation. Oct. 25. AMIGO. P.S. Should a war break out, a table showing the class and force of our ships, compared with those of the enemy, should be published, that in case of either suc cess or failure the public would be able to form a just opinion on the merits of the case. ALLIGATORS AND THEIR ROAR. The large alligators and caymans are the foremost among the inhabitants of the water which prey upon the fishes. There they lie, like dry logs of wood, at the foot of some cataract, their mouth half open, ready to snatch and swallow what the increased rapidity of the current should carry down the fall. How frequently have we seen them in that situation while ascending the upper river Berbice, which beyond all others seemed to swarm with these horrid monsters. I have already ob served how often they tore the fish from our spring hooks, and carried fish, hook, and line away ; and we. naturally did not owe them good-will for their steeii ng propensities, which served as an additional proof to what extent their depredations must be carried on ; and although abundance of fish during certain seasons pre vails in the rivers of the interior, the cayman is never theless the most covetous of all animals, and envies every other successful fisher. This lie gives to under stand, particularly by angry growls, if the 1412 with the eaptive is drawn in, and his attempts to intercept the captured fish before it be drawn on the land should have proved unsuccessful. While we were encamped at the mouth of the river Rewa, or Roiwa, during our last expedition, the afternoon of the 21st of October had passed under thunder and rain ; but at the approach of night nature lulled herself to rest, and only the drop pings from the leaves told of the former storm. I was lying sleepless in my hammock, and I watched two In dians who had their lines out to entrap some hungry fish. A kilbagre, lured away by the tempting bait, had snapped at it ; and the fisherman, acquainted by the stress on hi 4 line of his success, drew the unwilling fish towards his canoe, when the roar of a cayman awoke the echo of the woods ; and rushing towards the course with all his might, he recaptured the fish, as the asto nished Indians were just on the point of drawing it in ; and with it went the hook and a great part of the line. At our second night's camp, after we had entered the river Rupununi, the Indians were likewise fishing ; and whenever a fish was caught and drawn toward the canoe, the caymans commenced such a roar that it baf led description. We distinctly heard that there were three ; first one commenced, when the fish that was drawn in began to struggle ; and another answered him, until the noise was so great that the Indians, as if ' i n self-defence, and to intimidate the approaching raou sters, set up a shout themselves. Indeed, the 'oaring of the cayman i s so s t rong , t h at i n the still hour of night it may be h ear d a m il e off, an tliere i som thing awful and ind escr ib a bl e i n it ; it is not the tiger's e growl, the bull's bellowing, the lion's roar, it is differ ent from all, and really terrific when that sound bursts suddenly upon the ear, I might compare it to the snorting of a frightened horse, if the strength of that snort could be increased ten—no, twentyfold in effect —Sehomburgh's Fishes of Guiana.
