Mr. ALLEY moved for a fresh process against the defendants, who are indicted for keeping a gamin° , house, and who suffered their recogni:rances to be estreated in the early part of these sessions. The Court granted the application ; and or dered 24 hours' notice of hail to be given to the prosecutor. Henry Read was convicted of violently assault ing two officers in the execution of their duty, and sentenced to be imprisoned. When retiring from the Court, the defendant used some threats of vio lence to one of the officers, named Thompson, upon which he was brought back to the bar, and ordered to be imprisoned in the House of Correction for one year, and at the end of that period to find secu rity to keep the peace towards Thomson for one year further. ,Sarah Young was indicted for exposing and de serting her infant child, in Baker-street, on the night of the 10th of December last, without suffi cient clothing to protect it front the damp, cold, and inclemency of the weather, &c.

Henry Fallon, a chalker, in the employment of Mr. Warren, the blacking manufacturer, and a mar ried man, was convicted of an indecent assault upon a female child only nine years of age, and sentenced to be kept to hard labour in the House of Correc tion for eighteen months. CORONER'S INQUEST. Yesterday evening an inquest was held on the body of Jai iPs Smith, aged 43 years, whose death was said to have been occasioned by taking a cer tain medicine, administered to him by a medical gen tleman. Mary Ann Smith stated, that the deceased, a baker by trade, was her brother; witness resided with him. On Friday last, the deceased complained of a violent head ache, and pain of the right side.— On Saturday morning he became worse, and witness went for Mr. Heyderman, a surgeon, in North-street, Manchester-square, who sent a powder, with direc tions that it should be taken in the evening in some barley mar or gruel. 1 / 4 1kbout seven o'clock On Sun day eveniflg, witness mixed the powder in some water gruel, and gave it to the deceased. About five minutes after the deceased took the powder he fell asleep witness did not disturb him till near eleven o'clock, when ahe attempted to rouse him for the purpose of giving him some nourishment, but she could not wake him; about two o'clock he started in his sleep, and the "death rattle" in his throat came on. Witness was much alarmed, and hurried off for Dr. Heyderman, whom she told that her brother was dying in consequence of the pOwder he had sent him on the night previous, and begged his immediate attendance. Mr. Heyderman, how ever, thought it unnecessary to attend, and desired her to give the deceased plenty of barley-water.— On witness's return she found the deceased much worse, and apparently on the eve of dissolution.— She again sent the deceased's son for Mr. Heyder man, but he refused to attend ; on her nephew's re turn she sent him for Mr. Wells, a surgeon of Wel 'beck-street, but before that gentleman could arrive the deceased had ceased to exist. CORONER—What message did the medical gentle man send back, when you sent for him a second time ?—That he considered it useless to come, as he knew the deceased was dead. CORONER—Were the deceased and Mr. Heyder man on friendly terms ?—Yes, Sir. John Smith, a youth about 16 years old, was next examined—On Monday morning last he was di rected by his aunt, the last witness, to go for Mr. Heyderman, as she considered that his father was (lying. Witness went immediately, and saw Dr. Heyderman, whom he informed of the dangerous state of the deceased, and begged his immediate at tendance. Mr. Heyderman, however, said it would be no use to go, and desired witness to return and give his father plenty of milk. Witness again re peated that his father was dying, and implored him to come, but in vain. Mr. STIRLING, on the suggestion of the Jury, sent a message by the beadle to Mr. Heyderman to at tend the inquiry. The beadle returned in a few minutes, stating, that Mr. H. would not come forward, unless the Coroner sent him a sovereign for his trouble. The CORONER now forwarded a peremptory note, which had the effect desired. On Mr. H.'s entering the room, he stated that the deceased having applied to him, for a cough and pain in the side, he sent him a powder on Sa turday erenink; between three and four o'clock in the morning (Monday) lie was knocked up to attend the deceased, whom he was told was in a motionless state; from the nature of the disease he was la bouring under, witness concluded that the sleep which he was described to be in was no more or less than the sleep of death, consequently he considered it useless to attend. CORONER-But the lad informed you that his father was not dead, but very ill. Mr. Heyderman—Oh, but I knew he would soon die ; besides, I was once robbed in going to a patient in the night-time, and I'll take care that shall not occur a second time. The Jury should require the body of the deceased to be opened before they decided as to their verdict. The CORONER said that they could adjourn for a short time, till the operation was performed by the parish surgeons. Mr. Fred. Goodyear, the surgeon o f M ar yl e b o ne infirmary, opened the body of the deceased, and ex amined the stomach and intestines. There were no appearances which would lead witness to say that the deceased died otherwise than a natural death. The Jury, after consulting about a quarter of an hour, returned a verdict—A , That the deceased died by the visitation of God." The third Dorset County Ball was held at the Assembly Rosms, Blandford, on Tuesday evening last, which was attended by a numerous and brilliant assemblage of beauty and fashion.—Dorset Chronicle. SUDDEN DEATH.—On the morning of New Year's day, when Mr. Joint Wst.sox, innkeeper, Siller Dyke, was enjoying himself with some friends, he leant his head on the table in a sleeping posture. Several hours afterwards, as he did not stir, his family went to rouse him, and they found that he had been some time dead.— Scotsman.

A public meeting of this once-flourishing concern was held at the City of London Tavern, on Thurs day last : Mr. PRENDERGAST in the Chair. The CHAIRMAN proceeded to read the accounts, from which it appeared th a t o f th e 400,0001. ca pi ta l, there was only remaining 9,2004, and the premises and plant, which they were now in hopes of dis posing of, as they had several parties in treaty for them. Mr. ATKINSON stated his intention of first mov , ing, for the consideration of the proprietors, a vote of censure on the late directors (with the exception of Mr. Kiernan, who had but lately been elected) for continuing the concern, and nevet recommending to the proprietors to dissolve it, although they knew they were losing many thousands per annum ; (or div►ding amongst themselves the salaries of fifteen directors and five auditors, after the numbers were reduced to nine directors and three auditors for the purpose of economy; and for the highly improper authority they had usurped, in declining an offer of vital importance to the concern which might have • restored the value of the shares, without consulting the proprietors. The resolution being duly seconded, was handed to the Chairman, who declined putting it, when it was withdrawn till the nr'xt meeting. AMERICAN PAPERS. (From the New York Evening Post.) " TREASURY REPORT FOR 1827. " The annual report of the Secretary of the Trea sury for the present year has just been received. It is excessively voluminous, occupying ten wide columns in the National Inielligencer, a circum stance which may be accounted for from its being also excessively declamatory. We have not room for it to-day; and a great portion of it is really of so little value, that we must postpone its entire publi cation for the present. _ " The repo - r - sets out with congratulating the nation on tbe of its revenue. The Secretary admits, that m year ending on the 13th of Sep tember last, the 11},portations have been less than those in the year previous ; yet if we compute time in another manner, and end the year with the 15th of the present month, the importations, he thinks, will be found greater during the present year than during the last. An increase of importation during the third and the yet unexpired quarters of the year 1827, has taken place, arising, he says, from the greater quantity of woollen goods brought into the country within a few months past. He therefore supposes that the importations for the next year will be sufficient to produce an ample revenue. We presume that while penning this expression of his favourable anticipations, he was not thinking of the plan which he afterwards proposes in the course of his report, to cut off the importation of woollen goods by additional duties. If the importation of those goods, which, according to him, have alone. had the effect of raising our diminished revenue, be checked, it is very apparent that the revenue must again decline. " As to the public debt, it is stated, that on the Ist of January, 1825, it amounted to somewhat more than 88 millions and a half. On the Ist et January next it will stand at about 67 millions and a half. In these three years, a sum amounting to more than 21 millions has been applied to the ex tinguishment of the national debt. Of this sum, however, five millions were borrowed under the Act of May 26, 1824, at an intefest of 4f per cent., to pay off an equal portion of debt standing at an hate rest of 6 per cent. The report goes into a particu lar enumeration and description of the several kinds of stock of which our funded debt is composed. No new measures in relation to this subject are re commended. " The following is an abstract of the statement given in the report of the Revenue and Expenditure of 1826 and 1827 : " The net revenue which accrued from duties ou imports and tonnage during the year 1826, amounted to 20,248,054 d. 30c. ;. and the actual receipts into the Treasury from all sources during the year 1826, amounted to 25,260,434 d. 21c. Making, with the balance in the Treasury on the Ist of January, 1826, of 5,201,450 d. 43c., an aggre gate of 30,462,084 d. 64c. " The actual receipts into the Treasury during the time first quarters of the year 1827, are esti mated to have amounted to 17,483,810 d. 7c. " And the actual receipt into the Treasury dur ing the fourth quarter of the year, (including the other moiety of the sum explained above), are esti mated at .5,117,480 d. Making the total estimated receipts into the Treasury during the year 1827, 22,606,297 d- 7c. " And, with the balance of the Treasury on the 31st of December, 1826, of 6,358,686 d. nc., nn aggregate 28,964,976 d. 25c. " The expenditures of the three first quarters of the year 1827, are estimated to have amounted is 317,895,390 d. 96e. " And the expenditure of the fourth quarter are estimated at 4,800,000 d. 6c. Making the total ex penditure of the year 1827, 22,695,390 d. 97c. "And leaving in the Treasury on the Ist of Jan. 1828, an estimated balance of 6,269,585 d. 29c. " These statements are followed by a long and rambling disquisition on the importance of protect 7 ing certain branches of American manufactures. The worthy Secretary has regularly, ever since his ap pointment, devoted a separate chapter of his reports' to this favourite subject; in which, after having escaped from the dry matters of fact relating to the public debt, revenue, and expenditure, he gives the reins to his imagination, and regales the public with a quantity of prodigiously fine writing. The present report is just about as bombastic in its style, and as wretched in its reasoning, as its predecessors. A great part of it is taken up with declaiming on the evils of buying 'chief), on the benefits of the old British restrictive system, ou the superior morals of a manufacturing population, on the importance of ' developing new aptitudes,' and other subjects of the kind. It recommends that imposts be laid for the encouragement of domestic manufactures in the following order : —l. Upon woollen goods and foreign wool ; 2. Upon fine cotton gdods; 3. Upon bai iron; 4. Upon hemp. " The Tariff of 1824, says the the report, as far as respects woollen goods, has been rendered abor tive by a chn.ng-e' which ha s b een made tin the laws of Great Sri;, since 1824'—alluding to e ,th reduction of flie drty on i m p orte d wool.; TherSe cretary should have possessed himself mOre su p u: e i r ed f c e et c o ti: i of the facts before repeating ' the exploded aigumenf comparatively of Mr. Everett. The change in the law of areal Britain was made, not since, but inalS24 ; the very day that our tariff law from ti passid. It h a d beet petitioned for years before, and-se as the a long discusSion in Parliament.' Besides , its effect in countervailing the provisions of o ur t ariff has beer shown to be very slight, small proportion of foreign wool employed in Britisl. fabrics. to pics bel ong i ng to t hi s we are ()biked to defe. " There are several other part of the report, on which our remarks to another day. In the mean time, we give the conclusion of the report, containing thi estimates for the next year. " The gross a mount of duties which accrued o? imports and tonnage from the Ist of January to tilt 30th of September last, is estimated at 21,226,000 d The gross amount that will accrue ,for the last quar " The amount of duty bonds in suit on the 30th of September last, was 4,136,812 d. 64c., which is more by 128,929 d. 86c. than was in suit on the same day of the year preceding. • • " In estimating the probable amounr.el duties that will be received as compared with the gross amount secured on the importations of the year, the necessary deductions are to be made, not Only for drawbacks, but for the expcnces or collection, alid various losses that may happen. Makin %Ow - is judged to be a full allowance oii 'dl these accounts, for the present occasion, the. receipts for the Cus toms in 1828 are estimated at '— -20,37 t; s ew(' Those from the sales of the public lands are estimated at From the Bank dividends And from all other aourcea ,V(1,000 12.; t 1 r 107 Making an aggregate of "The expenditure for 1828 is estitnated as follows Dnl C Civil, miscellaneous, and diplomatic Military services, including fortifications, ordnance, Indian department, retolu tionary and military pensions, arming the Militia, and arrearages prior to the lat of January. 1827 Naval service, including the gradual in crease of the Navy 3,788 649 :%Fa Public debt r - •10;00010tit) 722.:i(r.: :410 4,5(_ :.•:); Making a total of 19,947,1:c5 44 And leaving an excgss of receipts for the year over its expenditure, of 2,U2,6 5 " The estimate of revenue from' ajl c•-sr 1828 has been made 850,0004: lower than 'that for 1827. This has been done to guard, as feu as pos sibie, against unfavourable contingencies. NE.v . c.:•- theless, the present estimate. is formed on a L,r;T.i amount of duties secured by bond on merohn.liz imported than the estimate for 1527. Hence i!rt;', is reason, from all present appearances, to believc , that although the estimate for 1828 is less than that for 1827, the receipts will prove greater. " WAR REPORT. " We have drawn up the following abstract of the report of the Secret... c War. " The Secretary exposes 1.. s high approbation of the state of the army, anu stites that the vice cf in temperance, as far as he knows, has been suppi-essed. by the adoption of the resolution not to make any allowance for offence committed in fits of intf,xica lion. A purchase of horses for Fortress Monroe is again recommended. The estimates for next v(<_ , are nearly a milbon less than for 18:17, cipally to surpluses. There will be a consi'l, . . caving in clothing anti subsistence. It is mended that buildings should be erected, in 01 the city of New York, as r€commended Quartermaster-General, and also that an army asy him should be founded. " The West Point Academy progresses success fully, and, it is believed, is equal to any in the world. Among the surveys made by the Engineer Depart ment, are particularly enumerated the great 'Western National Road; the proposed Ohio and Chesapeake Canal; the Rail Road from Baltimore to the water§ of the Ohio; communication between the waters of James river and the western waters; . the improve ment of the navigation in the Tennessee river; awl the Canal through Florida. " It is belived that the Lead Mines will supply 10,000Ibs. annually, a tithe of which, as rent to :he Government, will be shore than sufficient for tlie army and navy. The dispOition shown by some of the Indian tribes to remove . from our territory, in duces the Secretary again to recommend the adop tion of a system on this subject. " 'We present to our readers this ,day the report of the Secretary of the Navy, which accompanied the Message of the President. It is a ^ument of much interest ; invites the attention of C',.tigress to many topics cloaelrconnected with th,2 interests of that important arm of national dcienc;•, is prepared with much reflection and abil4y, and well merits th e attention of the nation. We , thhilt its effect must be to elevate the character of the Secretary of that Department in the eyes of the 7eople, and to draw still more closely round him- the affections of that chivalrous profession over whose interests he pre sides. "It id our intention to lay before our readers, as early as practicable, a portion of the lapeis referred to by the Secretary in his Report. "The Quebec Gazette notices a rumour which has gaine'l some currency there since the news of the prorogation arrived, that a delegation of six. ;11ern bers of the Assembly are to proceed 'immediately to England, with a - formal complaint against Lord Dal housie.
