MORNING EDITION EAST SURREY ELECTION. MEETING OF MR. ALCOCK'S FRIENDS. Oa Monday evening a public meeting of the electors of Bermondsey took place at the Leather-market Tavern, to take measures to secure the return of Mr. Alcock. The large room was crowded by the most influential Liberals of the county. Soon after seven o'clock the chair was taken by FRANCIS BRUEN, Esq. The CHAIRMAN having briefly stated the object of the meeting, Mr. VOUSLEY had a resolution to propose for the contd. deration of the electors of East Surrey. It was their duty to return, as their representatives, steady and consistent Reformers—( Hear, hear)—men who did not advocate any of those violent principles of which the Tories professed to be so much afraid.—( Hear, hear.) Sufficient materials existed in the county to do that.—( Hear, hear.) If they were satisfied with the principles of the candidate who now came forward, he felt satisfied that there was enough of public spirit, and a sufficient number of bone fide Re formers in the county to return Mr. Alcock to Parliament as their representative..-.(Cheers.) They were told the Ballot was unneeessary ; but if Lord J. Russell had had half the experience of canvassing at elections for Members of Parliament that he bad, he would be convinced that some such measure was necessary.—( Hear, hear. ) Ile should conclude by submitting for their consideration the folloeing resolution :—" That it is, in the opinion of this meeting, incumbent on the electors of East Surrey, in supplying the vacancy in their representation caused by the death of Captain Alsager, to return to Parliament a gentleman who will support measures for the extension of civil and religious freedom, and the promotion of the in terests of all classes of the community.—.< Loud cheers.) Mr. CURLING seconded the resolution. He knew not the cause of recent defeats, but he deeply deplored them. Since they had lost Briscoe they had been left to the tender mercies of the Tories, who, he should say, were the people's worst friends. The Tories bad pit for ward a gentleman who was deficient in ma•urity of years, and who had not the advantage of sound experience. Ile spoke net without knowledge.—( Hear, bear, and cries of " His mother's afraid to let him out," and continued laughter.) He would do much better to be considered of seven years hence.—( User, and laughter.) In the mean time he would point to a gentleman whom the Libersl electors of Surrey had met to support.—(Cheers.) He came forward determined to support bet MSjesty's Minis ters.—(Tremendous cheering.) When they considered the successful results of their policy, both domestic and foreign, he would say that they ought to be supported.— (Continu 'd applause.) Their opponents were working Ike moles under ground ; but although there had been fewer Wacards and less stir than be ev'r remembered be fors and no pt.b!io meetings, yet they hAd that day had the hardihood to declare that they should carry the county by a mjority of 600 —( Laughter.) The resolution was then put and carried unanirriowly. There b .ing laud ,!,ries for Mr. Wood, the lion. Member came forward. BENJAMIN WOOD, Esq , M. P., said it unfortunately happene,t that he was not an elector, and had no right to address the meeting._( Cries of " Yes, yes.") I-I came there to sanction the principle of reform, by the humble: advocacy of which he had the honour to represent that borough —(Cheers.) They had limited means in tho House of Cammons. They wanted rtinch to add to the str..ngth they now possessed. Every vote lost now was almost more than ten would have been some time ago. —( Hear, hear.) If they could only win one from the enemy's camp much would be gained.—( Hear, hear. ) 'I hey were fi;htirg the same cause at Walsall villa every prospect of success, and if two victories could be obtained in so short a time, tho advantage would necessarily b - .! great.—( Cheer.) There was another subject—he meant the Poor-laws—on'which the opinions of Mr. Alcock were equa'ly sound. tne country was in a t artificial state, cieated entirely by the Corn laws, which were alike ioju dons both to individuals and to the community at large.— ( Cheers.) It was impossible to look on the b ibery and corruption prevalent at elections without being convinced of the necessity of the Ballot.—(A voice, " The fran chise.") He (Mr. Wood) would include all householders. He believed Mr. Alcock went farther.—.(Cheers.) Mr. WILSON (the Anti-Corn-law delegate) moved the following reso!thion :—" That Thomas Alcock, E-q., Laving come forward as the advocate of the repeal of the Corn-laws, and an alteration in the system of Church rates, and other liberal and enlightened measures, and from his being a re ident in the county and a large holler of property in it, is qualified to supply such vacancy, and this meeting pledges itself to use their best endeavours to secure his return." The motion was briefly seconded by Mr. DONKIN, and carried by acclamation. Mr. Aec ,CK then rose, and was received with reiterated applause. It had been obj-cted agains, him that be was deficient in respect to the electors in not canvassing them personally, but the fact was that he had attempted it the first morning, and finding that he could only see six or eight or ten electors at most, in a very few hours he had given it up as impracticable, and determined to resort to the much more candid and straightforward proceeding of addressing the electors at public meetings. Mr. Wilson had said but little, but much to the point. He (Mr. Wilson) was the brother of the author of the best book on the Corn-laws. His (Mr. Alcock's) attention was first drawn to the work by the Earl of Clarendon in the House of Lords. The Morning Post had ridiculed him for as ?ening that the price of corn would have been higher on an average for the last twenty years if there had been no Corn-laws, but his assertion was perfectly compatible :l i'h common sense. Although it might have been higher on an average, it would not have been so high within 12s. or ur Ri aie Atee cast y.ar. His object was to prevent Excessive fluctuations. He was convinced there was no measure more for the general good of the country than a repeal of the Corn-laws.—( Hear, hear.) Ho was inclined to remove those laws gradually, so as not to hurt any inte rest in the country.—( Hear, bear.) Wilson, to whose work he had already alluded, recommended that it should be done in this way. The plan that he recommended was to fix the duty on corn at 103. for the first year, and de crease it by Is. annually for five years, then to remain at 53. per quarter for three years, and afterwards cease alto gether. Ia this view of the subject he entirely concurred. A number of Chartists had by this time entered the room, and by pressing the question as to the five points of the Charter, in opposition to the wishes of the great majority of the audience, they caused some confusion. Respecting the first point of the Charter, namely. Universal Suffrage, Mr. Alcock answered decidedly in the negative ; to the second—Vote by Ballot—he replied in the affirma tive ; to the third and fourth, namely Annual and Trien nial Parliaments, be also gave a decided negative. As to the last, namely, no Property Qualification, the confusion was too great to reply. Mr. WiLsoN, after same time, succeeded is obtaining a hearing. He proposed a vote of thanks to the Chairman, which, being carried by acclamation, the meeting broke up. CANTERBURY ELECTION. NOMINATION OF THE CANDIDATES. CAN renneny, MONDAY.-Before daybreak this morning the friends of both candidates were hastening from one committee-room to another, for the purpose of making the necessary preparations to escort Mr. Wilson and the Hon. Mr. Smythe to the nomination, and about nine o'clock the colour-men and banner-bearers of each party assembled in the High -street, opposite the Conservative Club commit tee-room and the King's Head Tavern, where Mr. committee have been sitting. Shortly after ten the Cceserratives proceeded in procession to the hustings, which consisted of three waggons, appropriated to the re spective candidates and tie Sheriff; and in the couree of twenti minutes they were followed by Mr. Wilson and his party. The Act against bribery and corruption having been read, and the usual formalities gone through, Mr. Alderman Pt.reottee begged to propose John Wright Henniker Wilson, Esq., as a fit and proper person to- re present the City of Canterbury in the Commons House of Parliament.--( Long continued cheering and hisses.) Mr. Alderman COOPER seconded the nomination. Mr. PARTRIDGE proposed the Hon. George PAT) , Sid ney Smythe. —( Loud cheering and disapprobation.) Com bined with a feeling of loyalty to his Sovereign, he enter tained a thorough knowledge of the measures best calcu lated to maintain the dignity of the Crown, the rights of the people, and the noble institutions of the country... (Cheers and dissent.) Mr. BALDOCY seconded the nomination. The SHERIFF then asked if any elector had any other candidate to propose, and no answer being returned, Mr. Wreaoe came forward, and was received with loud and long-continued cheers and hisses. Fortunately for them the result of this election did not depend, as in many instances elaewhere, upon the comparative wealth of the candidates, but the struggle involved the cause of the Blue party in opposition to the Tories; and the present contest was of still more importance, as it was the cause of the Queen, of loyalty, and of independence, against disloyalty. Tory oppression—(The remainder of the sentence was drowned in an uproar.) They were all aware of the means that had been resorted to, to intimidate and deter the eleetors from supporting the Reform interest, and he could now say, after the experience of a long canvass, if he was a sceptic before, he was now convinced of the neces 7i'y, of the Ballot, i n or d er to protect t h e lib ert i es o f the people, and enable them to exercise the elective fran chise conscientiously.—(Cheers and hisses.) Ho had been winless of several painful and heart-burning in stances where undue influence had been used to coerce the voter into the support of principles opposed to the feelings of the heart and of the conscience.—.(Cries of " No, no," and cheers.) This being the fact, if it had only occurred in one individual case, he would have considered it his duty to have brought that isolated in stance before Parliament, as he was of opinion that alone should be a sufficient ground for inducing the Legislature to grant the people the protection of the Ballot.—( Cheers and hisses.) One argument was, that the Ballot was un- English ; hut n ot hi ng could be called un- English that would have the effect of an im proved state of things, and of affording additional security to the honest and conscientious voter.—(lloar.) Another argument was, that the Ballot was impracticable, end that it would not conduce to secret voting and protec Lion ; but this applied rather more to the mechanical con struction of the ballot-box than to anything else. That ar gument was easily refuted by the model of a ballot-box, which be should be happy to show and explain to Mr. Smythe.—( Hear, hear, and laughter.) Another cause of strong complaint on his part was the coercion and ill -dis guised influence that had been exercised by those connected with the cathedral.— ( Hisses and cries of " No, no.") He was ashamed to say that those gentlemen had pursued the same disgraceful course of intimidation upon this occasion that was imputed to them on the last election.—( Cries of Shame.") He had strong grounds for complaining of the bigoted conduct he had experienced from those gentlemen during his canvass, and especially at the hands of the inha bitants of the fashionable residences about the cathedral.— ( Cries of " Shame," and hisses.) There had been another powerful weapon wielded to the preju dice of the Reform cause. He meant the public press— * slanderous Tory Press, that had flattered his Honourable Friend in a manner that he was sure would make him blush to the very tips of big fiagero, while it had calumniated him (Mr. Wilson), without having had the slightest pre text to say a ; word to his prejudice. —("Shame," and hisses. ) It was not only himself that the Tory Journals had tra. duced, but they had also foully aspersed a lady who was held most dear to British breasts. The Hon. Carsdidate here referred to the publication of some articles that ap peared in a Kentish Paper, and appealed to the electors if such language was not an imputation upon their loyalty. He had always been the unbending opponent of an Admi nistration which were driven in a few days from power by the iniquities of the Pension List —(Cries of " Hear, hear," and hisses)—anal which would prevent the present Government from pursuing those measures of reform and improvement which no person hut the greatest bigot could deny the people stood so much in need of.—( Applause and hisses.) He asked why Sir Robert Peel did not oppose the present Administration openly instead of continually attack ing them by indirect means? Why did they not move an amendment to the Queen's Speech ? Could they find no fault with it; and were they constrained to pass it over with the grumbling of Sir Robert Peel? Why did not the Tories attempt to impeach the Government for their policy iu the Mediterraneso, or for the measures they adopted in other parts of the world, by which they have ensured the pacification of Europe as decisively in a fees weeks, as it would have taken a Tory Government, with en extrava gant and ruinous war of thirty or forty years' duration, to bring about.—( Laughter and cheers.) The Honourable Candilate concluded amidst much yelling and cheering. Mr. SMYTHE next presented himself, and was heartily cheered and groaned at. He thought the congratulations which Mr. Wilson broached were somewhat premature, because he believ. d, by Mr. Wilson's dividing them into three classes, the freemen, and the 10/. householders, and the more wealthy householders, rather more would be inclined to vote for him (Mr. Smythe), and hoist those colours (pointing to the orange and purple banners, which called forth cries of " No, no," and " Hear, hear, bear.") He had made a mistake, then; but allow him to tell them the reason he had said that. Nobody could forget the language of the Attorney-General; and it should be recollected Mr. Wilson supported the Ministry of which that Attorney .General was a member, and, there fore, approved of his words. The freemen of Canterbury, declared the Attorney-General, were a most venal and corrupt race—( Loud cries of 's Hear, hear") —but he (Mr. Smythe) did not think so, nor did he say so.—( Applause. ) He next came to the 10/. householders. Many of them said that they would vote blue, because they felt grateful to tha Blues for the vote they had given to them under the Reform Bill ; but if they were desirous of expressing their gratitude for that privilege, he (Mr. Smythe) cer tainly stood before them with greater claims and advan tsges than Mr. Wilson, for he found that out of the Grey Cabinet, which passed that Bid, only three continued in the present Ministry, while five were Conservatives. —( Hear, and applause.) The remainder never voted fur the present Government, • nor did Lord Spencer styport the ..: Therefore he said that if th e y l oo k e d •A upon the • Act as a boon, they w ere more indebte itrin the party he supported for their vett s, t se who advocated principles that would cad in shy and confusion—( Loud uties of " No," and cheers ten he would say, principl - kk:ibat were im practicable to be carried out by any eGovernment.— ( Laughter, and ch'eers.) He (Mr. Smythe) was opposed to the present doomed and struggling G4lvernment a hich now alone found strength in its own death-struggle.— (Cheers.) lie felt that in the present contest he bad many difficulties to surmount. He was opposed by a mat, who boasted of hisv,wealth in ten countigsx,and b; a party who possessed all the influence which a pisrtial Adminis tration could throw into their hands. ,The Hon. Gentle man then retired amidst deafening pliidits and great hissing. ir7 A show of hands was then taken by the Sheriff, and declared to be in favour of the 1 - 4 n. Mr. Smythe. Mr. MATTHEW demanded a poll on behalf of Mr. Wil son, and after a vote of thanks was passed for the Sheriff, the cand:dates and their friends returned to their respcc tive committee rooms. WALSALL ELECTION. 11 de- WALSALL, MONDAY, FOUR P. M.— PUr9U3Rt to the claration of the Mayor, the nomination of a candidate to represent the borough of Walsall in Parliament, tobk place at nine o'clock this morning. The candidates were Mr. J. N. Gladstone, in the Conservative interest, and Mr. J. B. Sinith, the representative of the Anti-Corn law League. At nine o'clock the Mayor, accompanied by the Town Clerk and the various functionaries of the borough, made their appearance on the hustings. The number of persons in the crowd now amounted to about 4,000, but no dispo sition to violence was exhibited, no manifestation of party malevolence appeared. After the usual preliminaries had been attended to, and the proceedings had been duly opened by the Mayor, CHARLES FORSMER, E proposed the election of Mr. J. N. Gladstone, which was seconded by Mr. S. Perks. Mr. C. F. COTTRILL then proposed the nomination of Mr. Smith, which was seconded by Mr. Mills, of Darlaston. The candidates then addressed tho electors at consider able length, in the course of which Mr. Gladstone ex pressed himself favourable to a reduction in the price, when corn might be imported duty free, and Mr. Smith ex pressed himself in favour of a total repeal. A show of hands being decidedly in favour of Mr, Smith, a poll was demanded on the part of Mr. Gladstone, and the concourse separated. The town remains perfectly quiet. REIGATE ELECTION. REIGATE, TUESDAY.—The returning officer has fixed to. morrow, the 31 inst., for the nomination of the candidates. There are three who contend for the re presentation of the borough, Lord Elstnor and Mr. D'Arcy (Tories), and Dr. Bedford ; who has come for ward on Liberal principles. The borough is a com plete pocket borough —as to election, it is all humbug, and it is calculated that out of about 120 voters there are not a dozen who are free from the influence of the Somers family. A very curious circumstance has transpired in con nection with the election. It appears that owing to some informality in the signing and payment of the rates in the borough, that a great number of the electors—indeed, the greater part of them—have no legal vote ; and should they give their votes, there is no doubt that the election would be void. It is said that the young Lord is so delicate in health, that he will not be able to attend at the nomination, and that some per son will appear on his behalf to address the electors. Dr. Bedford pledges himself to go to the poll, so that there is no doubt of a contest taking place, al. though from the peculiar situation of the borough, the Liberal candidate has no chance of snecess.

Sir,—ln your report of the proceedings in the Rolls Court on Thursday last, you have fallen into an error which I -shall feel obliged if you will correct, in tho ease " Gardner v. Howard," which was an application for an injunction of the Court to restrain the defendant from further making and selling certain machines for cutting turni )s infringing my patent. You describe the de ft nda . nt as an ironmonger living at Brentford ; it should have been put Bedford, not Brcntford. You also state the defendant was making and selling ma chines in every respect similar to those patented by me. It was stated to the Court by my counsel, that the defendant was making and selling machines, the knives or cutters of which separately and in the series were similar to those for which my patent was obtained, but instead of affixing them upotr a rotary drum as made by me, the defendant, it was stated, affixed them upon a rotary plate. The Court, regarding it as a decided caso of infringement, granted the Injut ction. 1 am, Sir, your obedient servant, JAMES GARDNER.

She sang the song of " When at your feet a lover kneels," e x.. quisitely, and, as a matter of course, was called on to repeat it; she also sang the finale to Luccia di Lammermoor in a style which elicited shouts of laughter and applause. As a burlesque imitation of the exaggerated style of singing and acting of the Griai school, it was one of the best performances we ever wit nessed, and it had this great merit, it never degenerated into mere vulgar caricature. We kail the return of Mrs. Honey to the metropolitan boards with unmingled satisfaction, and hope that she will not again leave us for such a length of time as she has done recently. THE SULTAN AND THE QUEEN. —The young Sultan Ab lul Medjid has addressed a " letter of fe licitation" to her Nl;j:ssty the Queen, on the occasion of :be birth of the Princess Royal. The letter is about three feet in length by four or five inches in width. It is 'written in very beautiful characters, small, but extremely diviner, and evidently done with great care. In the mar. gin is the autograph of the Sultan, with an enumeration of all the titles of " the Most High and very Powerful Seigneur" which have appertained to his Highness's pre decessors from time immemorial. The paper is of fine quality, resembling but superior to vellum, and with a fine enamel on its curf,co. The letter was enclosed in an en velope, and sealed with the armorial bearings of the Sul tan. The whole was enclosed in a rich sachet (or small hag, similar to a lady's reticule) of crimson satin, elabo rately embroidered with silk and gold, and to which were attached a cord and tassel of bullion of the most recherche manufacture.

(From the Morning Chronicle.) It will be seen, from our account of the proceedings at die nomination at Walsall yesterday, that the show of hands was completely in fsvour of Mr. Smith. Mr. Smith had not only the hands but the heads irr his favour, for even the gentleman who proposed Mr. Gladstone durst not meet the great principle which is at issue in this election. Mr. Forster said, " Is reference to the Corn-lavis, if they could be proved to be injurious to the trede of the country, they ought to be repealed forthwith." But he durst not state that they were not injurious. Mr. Mills, the gentle man who seconded the nomination of Mr. Smith, said, "He should like to know from Mr. Forster what he really thought was detrimental to the town. Did he not think that there must be something detri mental when he saw hundreds around him in the most wretched destitution? He asked Mr. Forster if he had not seen, as a guardian, hundreds around hint in the most wretched destitution ? Had he not seen, as a guardian, hundreds of men applying for leave to do the work of horses far fifteen pence i..er day ? He (Mr. Mills) sat at the board with Mr. Forster, and they both knew that they had been compelled to put num bers of these poor creatures upon three days of this de scription of work in toe week. I: was folly to deny the existing distress; it was still greater folly to deny the cause, because by so doing they prevented a remedy." The people of Walsall seem fully impressed with the im portance of the contest which they are to decide. The utmost enthusiasm prevailed in favour of the Asiti-Curn law candidate. From what was said by Mr. Cottrell, it would appear that bribery has been resorted to by the Tory candidate. But the people were confident that the cause of free trade would be victorious. Out of the enor mous multitude, not more than about a dozen individuals were adherents of the Tory candid 4te. From all these symptoms we augur favourably for Mr. Smith. (From the 'fitnes.) The factious rnainisr in which, for political ends, the " Liberal" journals arc constantly assailing the Horse Guards, has naturally operated as a restraint upon any expression of our feelings and opinions in a matter on which there is, we believe, among Englishmen uncon nected with the parties, but one, and that a very strong opinion. We owe to the distinguished nobleraan at the bead of the army, not merely respect, but the warmest I gratitude, for services only eclipsed by those of one, whose fame seises into comparative obscurity achievements which in other days would have placed their authors among the wonders of their time. To be next alter Wel lington is surely a higher rank than belongs to any corn-- mender since the days of Marlborough. Nor does it reflect any slight honour on Lord Hill to have commanded the whole British army for now nearly fifteen years, with so generally unimpeachable a character as that which he has succeeded in sustaining. It is from a mingled feeling of regard for the past and apprehension for the future that we now venture, once more, to approach that vexata questio—the predicament of the Priece Consort's regiment of Hussars. One of the chief uses f the Press is to give a tongue to public discontent. Aed this is the difference between a Loyal and a disloyal Press :—The latter, as in the present case, exhibits the greatest avidity in exc , tieg the public mind against all lawful authorities and established institutions. The former, desiring rather to allay than to irritate the evil, speaks only when it is ne cessary ; when it appears but too probable that the public feeling is not understood or appreciated by those to whom it is a misfortune to misunderstand or to be misunderstood by the people. From the uncertainty and hesitation which still exists, we cannot but fear that this is the case with re spect to the position of the Horse Guards as to the affair of the 1I th Hussars and their commander. Universally con demned abroad, and no: defended even at head -quarters, as is the conduct of Lord Cardigan, still no decisive step is telt, n. ()freer alter officer falls a victim to the want of temper and stlf-contrel dibl.lsyed by the Lieutenant-Col. nel ; the public mind, irritated by these things, displays its dis content on every fittir a os or unfitting occasio n , b u t s till t h e main cause of a ll t hi s ill-blood continues to c xist, and the moral feeling and sense of justice which arc innate in, and natural to, Englishmen in general, arc outraged by b..h.old ing the wronged still without redress, and the wrong-doer still without check or pun:shrnent. The good sense of tie people has been abundantly visible in this affair. they are aware that discipline must be preserved, and insubordination firmly repressed, if the army is to le kept in a state of effectiveness. The sentence, there fore, on Captain R. A. Reynolds was submitted to, severe as it undoubtedly was. Nay, more, a respect ful silence was preserved in order that Lord Car digan's resignation, expected by every one as inevit able, might have the grace of a voluntary, and not an enforced act of repentance. But in this pa. tience and moderation of the public mind there is no atom of doubt or indecision. The feeling of ninety nine men out of every hundred (we speak only of educated men, and competent judges) is, that Captain R. A. Rey nolds, while he had clearly exposed himself to the sentence which he received, was at the same time a man who had suffered cruel provocation, upon whom technical justice inflicted real injustice, and in whose favour, therefore, mercy ought to be brought into exercise at the earliest fitting moment ; while, on the other hand, Lord Cardigan, both in this, and in various other instances, bad shown such a want of proper feeling and temper as clearly rendered him unfit for a post of command, and made it a public duty incumbent on hit • superiors to with draw him, as quickly as possible, from a position in which he was doing constant and widely-extended mis chief. These opinions, as we have said, are general throughout society ; and, as they involve personal wrongs, and positive injuries, still unredressed, they are not likely to grow weaker, or to die away. " Let justice be done," is a motto perhaps of all others most congenial to an Eng lish mind. Bat justice has not yet been done in the case above alluded to. Hence the matter festers and rankles in the heart of the public. They can wait; but patience will have its limit. We trust that there is no intention a the Horse Guards of blinking the question, or of trying the extent of the public endurance. We still hope that arrangements are only delayed which may rectify what at present requires it, and may remove the heartburning which continues to exist. Much is this to be desired ; both that " justice may be done" to the injured parties, and that those who are constantly carping at the Horse Guards system, from factious and party motives, may not have the support which they are at present deriving from a widely spread conviction that wrong has been done, and remains unredressed ; while the wrong-doer maintains his state, and continues his course with impunity. (From the Globe.) The Times and Herald, each in its peculiar way, have given us samples of what may be expected while the Bill for continuing the Poor-law Commission is be fore Parliament. It would exclude from our columns matter far more worthy of public regard, were we t.o notice all the unproved and disproved assertions of the one, and the insane garrulities of the other. This is, however, unnecessary ; for, though they occupy much space, they contain but little that is new. The Herald asks, " Is not the law which Lard John Russell seeks to have renewed and perpetuated, a law to prolong the agonies of hunger —to convert public relief into refined torture—to brand the destitute with worse than the felon's sentence and then, answering the questions in the affirmative, proceeds to vindicate the Conservatives from any share in passing the Poor-law Amendment Act. Now, though we wish the Whigs had the exclu sive merit of originating a measure which we believe has preserved the country from universal pauperism, and the tendency of which is no less beneficial to the poor than to the rich, on referring to the Report of the first Poor-law Commission on which the existing Act is founded, we find the three first signatures arc—" C. J. London," " J. B. Chester," and " W. Sturges Bourne." The Conservative party in bath houses have acted with fairness on this qUesti-. Indeed, whe❑ the Duke of Wellington and Sir 8.. Peel gave their unqualified sup port and approbation to the Bill, their followers could hardly dissent. Whatever opposition the measure en countered was from the Radical Members ; the Con servatives who dissented being the most insignificant of their class. But we object strongly to the dishonest use which has been made of the Anti-Poor-law clamour by Tories out of Parliament, who have been glad to t4ce the benefit, and throw upon the Whigs the odium of the Bill. (From the Courier.) Some curious rumours have been afloat within the last few days, touching the passage of certain ill-tempered notes of late betwixt the English and French Cabinets, or rather all the ill blood was in the dipl omacy from this side and the cool courtuy from the other. The subject concerned the unvillingness of the French Government to resume the nego tiations for the settlement of that new commercial convention between the two countries, pro gress and promise of which has been the staple sub stance for the last two years of most that has been said in Parliament, and sung in ;Ministerial leading articles out of doors, in praise of the perfection of foreign policy. Lord Palmerston, if report may be be lieved, put out of humour by the civil dismissal of Mr. Porter from Paris on occasion of the July note and our Egyptian warfare, and stung more still by the polite in difference with which M. Guizot has since consigned to utter oblivion the commercial discussions and conclusions arrived at, has taken it upon him to recall the attention of that Minister to the business, and to inquire what might be his intentions ; to which the glacial rejoinder, in most smooth phrase, is said to have been to the effect, that as it was•a matter of no importance, there was 30 need to waste more words about it. This sort of cut gen teel only made the Foreign Secretary more petulant, and he is understood to have replied, with much tarts ness, substantially or in meaning, that, as all cause of quarrel and jealousy had now been removed by the ictorious career of the British arms on the coasts of Syria, and by the success of British diplomacy at Alex. andria, it was idle of France to persist in conceiving her self humiliated, to cherish feelings of resentment, and dream of reprisals or vengeance.

The duty which the Noble Judes will have to dis charge is thus a difficult and painful one. On the one hand, they must decide the question of strict law, without regard to what may be called the subs!antial justice of their decision : or, on the other side, they must virtually license duelling, by de ciding that its formalities, if fairly observed, absolve from the guilt of attempted homicide—guilt about which, in any other case but that of duelling, there is no doubt either in law or practice. A court of justice is not to be influenced by the wishes of the public ; but even if the public had the choice, it would scarcely know how. to form a wish as to the manner in which the question shall be disposed of ; assuming even all that bas been statc.l in the preliminary proceeding to be fully proved.— Nobody can be so cruelly unjust as to desire the punish meta of the gallant defendant for an act which, though illegal, has been through a long period not merely sanctioned, but enforcgd by the usages of society ; yet all must earnestly desire that the supreme court of jus tice in the king , lom should give life and energy to n law now slumbering in desuetude, by which, once senseless, ulddo s u a b v t a less be m or e e ff ectua li v savage, and unchristian peaaa, , k t j e c n n e do, of duelling t n;straincd than by any other law which wisdom could (I,vi se .

MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS, 4 115.--. _ (MONDAY EVENING.) CHRONICLE —The Share Market was flat to-day, znd prices were a shade bvt er. The news fro:n America, relative to the affairs of the B.ink of the United States, prAlueod acme anxiety among th,se interested in American affdrs ; but, although there seems to be no doubt that the accounts are correct in so far as they state that the American Money Market was depressed, and that the shares of the Bank had fallen, there is great reason to believe that the a.sertion, " of all confidence in the institution being gone," is untrue, and we have no difficulty in sta'ing that the statement of the immediate assets and Hal it tie, is fallacius. The New York 'feral', on whose authority alone the statement stands in the meantime, is a ripp. , ..r n••toriously hostile to the Bank, and not particu'arly Nigh in its cha ratter for veracity on any subj?et. Lo:,king, however, at its li4iires, we see at once that the liabiliti a are put down at the very highest amount possible, while the assets are garbled and depressed to the wmost farthing; and the whole of the large mass of securities held by the Bank are thrown overooard by the sweeping appropriation, "that they are daily becoming worse." The liabilities are put down at 511;205,022 The assets at Leaving a chficieney 0f......... $7,636,541 Supposing every dollar in deposit and eireula'ion to b callei for, an event known by every banker to be so very improbable that we might almost say it is impos sible. But besides from the above deficiency of $7,636,541 Aluit be deducted 5,000 000 Leaving only 52,636 541 Because that amonnt, it is known to all parties intk rested, was arra.eged to be taken in post notes at sine, twelve, and eighteen months, by the other banks of the city of Phila delphia, and through the latter in part by the banks in N ew York and Boston. Over and above all this it is known, as we stated lately, that the Bank has funds in this country at its immediate disposal to the extant of $a,500 000 ; so that, in fact, the institution had funds instantly available for the payment of every farthing uf its liabilities, if ev, ry dollar in circulation and deposit had been called for, which, as we have alreidy ob. served, is almost impossih'.e. These facts must satisfy the public that there is no reason to apprehend that the re sumption of specie paymtnts in January would be post poned, which is further strengthened by the quotation given in the New York Herald, of the rates of discount in New York for drafts on Philadelphia, which remained at 1 per cent. only, instead of from 3 to 5 per cent. discount, being the rate before the resumption was contemplated There certainly does appear to have been something like a panic at the date of the departure of- the Cambridge from New York,:from causes which the meagre accounts received do not explain. Under these circumstances, we would advise those concerned to remain quiet , until the arrival of the steamer of the Ist of February, which will be about the 15th of the month, as she will bring accounts sixteen days later than the period fixed for the resumption of specie payments. It appears that the heaviness in the Consol 141arket has been sufficient to depress Spanish bonds nearly per cent., notwithstanding the official publication of the financial decrees, converting the Coupons into land warrants, bearing 3 per cent. interest, with a prospect of their early cancegnent and resumption of the payment of the divi dends on the Active Bonds. Many persons, we under stand, consider the capitalising of the Coupons in the light of a new creation of stock, and it certainly would have been more desirable to have received payment of the arrears duo in money ; but it would have been absurd to expect such a settlement at present from an impoverished exchequer such as that of Spain. The next step was for the Spanish Gavernment to pay as much as they could afford, and to acknowledge the balance is a legal form, bearing interest until the means at their disposal should redeem the obligations. This has been done, and cer tainly the position of the bondholders it pro Canto im proved. The newspapers have only published the financial de crees themselves, and have not alluded to the report of M. Gambea to the Regency, on which the decrees were founded. This document is of a most able and satisfactory nature. It is published in the Madrid Gazette at length, and we subjoin some extracts from its columns, which prove distinctly the perfect bona fides of the measure, and the honest feelings and principles by which the Minister of Finance was actuated in proposing it for the consideration and approval of the Regency. lie begins by elluding to his former export's of the 4th of Novembtr, when he proclaimed that the most imperious obligation of Spain was that of paying all the arrears due and to become due of the national debt, which words, the Minister says, he repeats now, to let the world know that when he expressed them it was not with the only view to silence the general clamour, but as a solemn promise, which he considered himself bound to fulfil. lie then dwells on the great value of the several domains of national property still remaining unsold, and which he intends to publish for the knowledge of the creditors. The Spanish finances, he observes, require a radical reform, and the introduction of " econ.:rnias," to bring the Treasury to a state capable of meeting the national exigencies. He considers the claims of the bondholders as of a most sacred character, and in order to do justice to them as circumstances will permit, proposes the conversion of all the arrears of Coupons of the internal and external debt, up to the end of 1840, into a new stock or land warrants, receivable at par for the purchase of the national and church properties, bearing three per cent. interest per annum until extinguished. The other particulars of the conversion our readers will have found in the decree. With regard to 1841 and 1842, he reserves to himself full liberty to propose a measure to the Cortes, for their conversion, as they become due, because it is possible tbat at no very distant period Spain may be recovered so far as to be able to pay some of them in full. From 1843 the Minister entertains the hope of resuming payment of the dividends, and we must confess that we appreciate the can dour with which this report is presented to the public; for M. Gamboa distinctly says that he would be reluctant to make such an offer if be had anticipated that the debt was to be at that period of the same amount which it represents at present. He expects the contrary, as the facilities and encouragement which the Government intend to give for the sales of national and church properties will reduce the amount of it in a great degree. The church property is applied to the redemption of the Coupons and capital of the debt, to be sold as specified by the second decree, part in cash and part in Active Bonds and Coupons. The valuation of this property is 20,000,0001, but the Minister expects it will realise 30,000,0001., to be received as follows : £4,800,000 in Cash 12,000,000 in Active Stock 13 200,000 in Coupons £30,000,000 The cash will be required to provide for the maintenance of the church and clergy. The portions receivable in Stock (ordered to be,cancelled and burned on delivery) will reduce the debt of Spain within • such a compass as will enable the Government to make provision for the fu turn dividends at an early date, The statement which we made the other day as to the real amount of Coupons is corroborated by the report cf the Minister, and the home and foreign creditors are placed upon a footing of Entire equality. TINIE S.—The accounts given in the New York papers of the situation of the " United States" Bank, and that, too, within one week of the period (the 15th ult.) fixed for the resumption of specie payments, have struck dismay among the parties interested in that concern, who had been led to expect far different results', since it was known that the agency in Europe had ben undertaken by Messrs. Morrison and Sn. It should be observed, however, that there are many circumstances connected with these accounts which have led to the belief that there is both exaggeration and misapprehension in them, and the want of the papers of dates previous to the 8' ult., which would contain the Annual Report of the meeting of the Shareholders of the " United States " Bank on the 4th, almost wholly precludes any just conclusion on the subject. The affair may not, there fore, turn out quite so bad as it now appears to be, but still there was enough known before to justify great doubts whether this bank could resume at all on the 15th, and still greater, if it did so resume, of its being able to bear up against the run that would be made upon it, in consequence of other recent disr:oseres, or to continue specie payments for any length of time. That a deadly enmity exists in New York against !his and other banks in Philadelphia has lung been apparent, and unfortunately, besides the wish that the United bates Bank should be finally and totally overthrown, there exists a power in the New York banks to aid in the accomplishment of that wish, by a pressure for specie, as soon as cash payments are resumed. On the other hand, non -resumption must prove equally fatal, by causing a forfeiture of the charter, unless the Legislature of Pennsylvania, which has peremp torily fixed a " fi na l" p er i o d f or resum ption, should stultify itself so f ar as f urt h er to suspend the execut i on of its own law. Hence tha proper inference seems to be, that what. e li,rk, v,e ) rexZ tt ::::4ti t, of tie p iiz w i . o i nthere r may the accounts are n e ts int from New in this bank arc of the most unfavourable description. The quotations of the French funds, as published in the papers for Saturday, show that the movements of the Paris market have very much corresponded with those cf our own, as far as concerns the effect of the Queen's Speech, and the debates on the Address. The first dint of the omission caused in Paris, as it did here, a destine in the public securities, but the last papers, which show that the French are in possession of the speeches in Par. liament likewise, bring a slight advar.ce in the prices of stock, and although such a reaction did not take place from a like cause in our own market, it was pretty gene rally admitted that such would Lave been the case had not the paragraph about the public exigencies prevented it. Money has been in more request, and this has caused a greater continuation in the price of Consols for the ac count, as compared with the value for money, while also the continued bringing of stock into the market has ope rated unfavourably to the maintenance of quotations gene rally. _ . The foreign securities have, in almost every instance, given way, but the more particularly affected were those connected with the Peninsular Governments, and for the reason that it is here the impression that the bondholders are not fairly dealt by in the proposed consolidation of in terest upon their debt, and the small payment to be made upon it is also not thought worthy their consideration, Private letters from M idrid contain several observations respecting the Regency decree for the conversion of the overdue dividend into a 3 por cent, stock, published in the Gacela of the 22.1 ult. The amount of outstanding over due dividends, it is observed, may be set down at 960,000.000 of reals vellon, so that the present debt will he increased from 6,000,000,000 to 6,960,000,000, while the balances duo by the puichaFers of the national property, together with the value of that still unsold, and the value of the church estates applied, as according to the same Gazette, as well as of those bxlonging to Ordenes Mtli tares, &c., are only supposed to amount to 4,835,000,000, to say nothing of the circumstance that part of the payment for ileac properties is to be made in certif . :- cates of debt without interest. To show the room there is for retrenchment in the different branches of the public ex. penditure, a communication in one of the Spanish j , airnals by M. Pebrer, fur the purpose of announcing the forma tion of the Finance Association, contains some importat,t facts. lie sets down at 20,439 the number of employes under the Finance department, which thus costs t 9 cent on all that it collects. The preventive service is esti mated at $2,099,400 per annum, in spite of which about $24,000,000 are annually smuggled into Spain. The number of other civil employes is set down at 100,000, while the hall.pay to removed functionaries is reckoned to be about 500,0001. sterling, independent of that received by the military men, of whom there are as many in every city of Spain. The different denominations of taxes ap pear to be no less than 'lO2 in number. This same Ft. mince Association submitted to the Minister of Finance an opinion against the expediency of issuing the decrees far the conversion, but he felt that he could not withheld their publication. Their effect on the Bourse, it is obServed by the same letters, was very trifling, arid it is still thought doubtful whether any actual good will be done to the creditors, or whether the la hole is not an expedient to gain time. - The reptesentationa made to the Board of Trade last year by the merchants of London, Liverpool, and Glas gow, interested in the trade with Venezuela and New Granada, on the subject of the coffee duties, have been renewed with some additions and greater confidence, now that the general question of import duties is about to be agitated in so solemn a manner in Parliament itself. They disclaim, however, any desire to interfere with that prin. ciple, professing only to seek such a regulation of the duty as, while in accordance With that principle, may operate fairly towards other interests. It appears to them that a difference of 3d. yer pound duty in 'favour of British co lonial coffee, as compared with foreign, would afford Sad& cient protection to the former. The coffee from the Spanish Main is brought to market at a cost of from 503. to 555. per cwt.,.which is the price in pond. An addi• Lion of 28s. per cwt. (which is 3d. per lb.) to this before it was allowed to be placed on the same footing with the British, would, it is thought, give the latter a sufficiently preponderating advantage. In fact, as the coffee of Foreign States has been transported to the Cape of Good Hope, to comply with the law in favour of imports from within the limits of the East India Com pan) 'a Charter, and thereby is subject to no , more than 9d. per lb. duty, it is -shown that too proposed alteration has, in fact, been-. practically obtained. To do away with so unprofitable a course as that which is now taken to be subject to the smaller duty only, the suggestion is, that if colonial.coffee pays 6d. per lb., foreign shall pay 9i., without taking the circuitous route; or, if colonial be re duced to 5d., foreign shall pay but Bd. The commercial intercourse beta een Great Britain and Venezuela and New Granada is stated to be such as to render expedient every encouragement to the products of the later, and with respect to the slave trade, the merchants say, in the first place, that these countries have wholly purified them_ selves from that traffic, and in the second place, and with respect to other countries. that may not be similarly cir eumatanced, they submit, that the trade in coffee being a legitimate one, the question of slaves ought not to be con, nected with this of the duties. POST.—The funds closed under - much depression this evening, the market being again unfavourably influenced n by the assumed defAcation in the revenue. Some propositions have been put forward on the part of the Spanish 'Government, on the subject of finance, fcii which we may make reference on a vacant day. The Gaceta de Madrid has eight or ten columns under the - Lead " Ministerio de Hacienda," which it will of course: take time to digest. It must,' however, we arc quite sure, be a sore dishppointinent to Messrs. Mendizabal and Gambqa to learn that the effect of th •ir exposition was a considerable decline in the London market. LAW INTELLIGENCE. ROLLS' COURT, FEZ. 2. The Master of the Rolls sat yesterday in the Rolls' Court, Chancery-lane. At the sitting of the Court 30 Town and 53 Country Solicitors were sworn in before his Lordship, and Masters Lynch and Rose. Consent petitions were then taken, and afterwards the remaining opposed petitions were disposed of, among which was one in a case of DUFFIELD V. ELWES. It was the petition of Mr. Wilton, who had formerly been concerned for Mr. Chambers, praying that an order which had been obta ned, as of course, for the taxation of his bill of costs, might be discharged. The Master of the Rolls, after hearing Counsel fur and against the peti ti in, thought Mr. Wiiton Kai entitled to the relief he prard. The Court will not sit again until Monday. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, FER. 2 . _ ( Sittings at Nisi Prius, before Air. Justice COLTMAN and a Common Jury.) lIA RT V. RUSSELL. The parties in this action were proprietors of the well-known gambling house called the Berkeley Club, in Piccadilly. The plaintiff claimed 200/., tor money lent, and 41. lOs for goods delivered. In support of the claim for 2001. witnesses were called, who swore that they heard the defendant state that he had borrowed so much from the plaintiff, but would never pay him, because he had blabbed, and subjected him to penalties for keeping the club.. Proof was also given •f the delivery of the goods, and the Jury found for the plaintiff for their amount (41. 10s.) only. BAIL COURT, FEB. 2. (Sittings at Nisi Prius, before Mr. Justice WILLIAMS and a Middlesex Common Jury.) EWING . OSBALDES'iON. This was a qui tam aetton brought by the plaintiff against the defendant, tle . crelebrated actor, to recover certain penalties to which the defendant was liable, for having performed stage plays and other dramatic per formances-in a place not properly licence(' for such a purpose. _ _lt appeared from the evidence that the de fendant - lied -been the manager at the Sadler's Wells theatre in : the year. 1836, an d t h at d ur i ng t h at t i me h e had pertorined Macbeth and various other characters, but thore was no evidence to show that he had received a ealary for such services, although it did appear that other actors had been paid by the treasurer. °: - The Jury returned a verdict for the defendant. 1-.' - The Attorney-General conducted the case for the prosecution, and Mr. Kelly appeared for the defendant. COURT OF QUEL.N'S BENCH, FEB. 2. LEWIS V. REILLY AND ANOTHER. This was an action to recover the amount of a bill cf exchange for 301., brought by the plaintiff against Thomas Watson and Patrick Reilly, who were sur geons, carrying on business in partnership at Kenning ton-cross. The defendant Watson suffered judgment to go by default, and the defendant Reilly pleaded; first, that he did not make the bill ; second, that he and Watson were apothecaries and surgeons in partner ship, and that neither of them was authorised to accept any bills without the knowledge and consent of the wlier ; third, that the defendant Watson :nade the bill without the knowledge of defendant Reilly,.and through fraud, of which plaintiff had notice. The fourth plea was to the sam3 effect, and the fifth was that the partnership was dissolved at the time the bill was endorsed by Watson, of which the plaintiff had knowledge and notice. It appeared that the bill Sad been regularly drawn by Watson in the name of the firm, and before it became due the partnership was dissolved. The Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff on all the counts except the fifth. A rule for a new trial, or to show cause why judgment should not be en tered for the plaintiff non obstante veredicto was subse quently obtained, and Mr. BUSBY now appeared to show caus3 against the rule. The issue which had been found in favour of the defendants was, he contended, a material issue. Unless it were shown that Reilly was cognizant of the accep tance of the bill, he could not be held to be legally liable. The Learned Counsel referred to the case of " Sheriff v. Wilkes," in ht. East, " Ridley v. Taylor," and other authorities in support of his argument. Mr. HUMPHREYS was heard in support of the rule. The COURT was of opinion that they were doing no violence to languag.l if they believed from the evidence before them that the bill had been drawn during the existence of the partnership. There was nothing to show that the plaintiff had any notice of the dissolu tion of the partnership, and therefore the rule must be made absolute. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD CO UR T. (Before the RECORDER.) Charles Downie, a cab-driver, was indicted for wilful and corrupt perjury. Mr. Clarkson, with Mr. Bodkin, conducted the prosecu tion. Mr. Prendergast appeared for the defendant. The trial occupied the Court for eeveral hours; but he details were of a very tedious character, and the cir cumstances of the transaction out of which the indictment arose are not fit for publication. The Jury ultimately returned a verdict of Not guilty. lfilliam Roberts, 18, was indicted for feloniously stab bing and wounding Mary Anne Jones, with intent to do her some grievous bodily harm. Mr. Ilillantine defended the prisoner. It appeared from the evidence that on the 26:h ult., the prosecutrix and the prisoner were in the Cooper's Arms public-house, Greenwich, when the prisoner, as was alleged, without any provocation, inflicted the injury in question, with a nail, which was picked up close to the place where the prisoner was sitting. The RECORDER having intimated that be did not thi .11c the charge of cutting and wounding could be supported, Mr. BALLANTINE said that he could not attempt to deny that an assault had been committed, or to give any justiflea. tion for it. The Jury then found the prisoner g sil.y of an assault, and the Recorder sentenced him to six months' imprison ment. The Court adjourned at five o'clock. NEW COURT. (Before the COMMON SERJEANT.) John Francis Gray, pleaded guilty to a charge of stealing a gun, value 2/. the property of Thomas Burt, of Woolwich. The prisoner wa sentenced to three months' imprisonment in Maidstone gaol. Wthlain Wootton was charged with stealing 13s. from a box Which was broken open, the property of William Ashton, of Uxbridge, in whose service he was engaged. The prisoner was found guilty, but recommended to mercy in consequence of his precious good character. The Learned Serjeant said he would consider his sentence. William Price was charged with stealing a Mackintcsh coat, the property of Mr. Thomas Fardell, from a tavern in Altigate, on the night of the 2 . 2 d of January. It appealed from the evidence that the prisoner, who was a young man of respectable appearance, took the coat, which was hanging up in the room of the tavern, rolled it up, and rao away with it. II:3 was, however, pursued, and apprehended. The prisoner, in his own defence, said that he was intoxi cated at the time, and that he mistook the coat for one of his own. The proprietor of the tavern deposed, on the co:l=l.y, that he was at the time perfectly sober. The Jury returned a verdict,_of Guilty, and the prisoner was sentenced to seven years' transportation. LEWES SPECIAL PETTY SESSIONS. ( Before the Earl of CHICHESTER and a full Bench of Magis:rates.) BURGLARY AND ATTEMPTED Muansa.—Yesterdsy, six men, named IVilliarn Foster,Charles Foster, and James Fos ter, alias Busty (brothers), Thomas Baleombe. Jonathan Tansell, and John Martin, alias Fuller, alias My Uncle, were charged with burglarioualy breaking and entering the premises of Samuel Hollands, of Bexhill, Sussex, and ,stealing therefrom bankers' notes, cash, &c., to the amount Of between 3001. and 4001., and with assaultingand wounc'- ing John Fugglcs. John Dinna'e, John Frith, and Richard Ede, were also in custody on a charge of being accessories. Edward Ede, a brother of th e l as t- name d prisoner, was also in custody on the charge of being concerned in the robbery, but had bairn admitted as an approver. This burglary, being of a must daring character, and one of a see ies of robberies which have lately been com mitted. in...this county, created a most intense interest, and the more so in consequence of its having been very gene rally reported that Mr. Fugglcs, who had been barba. rously maltreated, had died from the effects of the inju ries received. This, however, happily turned out not to be the case, although that gentleman is still suffering from the t ffects of the ill usage. The prisoners, who are desperate characters, were brought up heavily ironed with double fetters, and chained to each other by the hands and feet. Edward Edo nes similarly ironed. Mr. "Samuel Hollands, the prosecutor deposed that be tween one and two o'clock on the morning of the sth of January, he was awoke by a light shining in his eyes, and saw;it mar, at the foot of his bed with a candle in one hand, and what appeared to witness to be a large carving knife in the other. The man said, " Your money we be conic for— we be come for your money, get out, be quick." Witness immediately got out of bed and took his purse, which contained between fi ve an d ten sovere i gns and somq silver. When he got out of bed he saw three other men in the room standing on the opp)site side of the bed. The man who first spoke to him said, " Where is the key of that ?" pointing to a bu reau, but before witness had time to answer him, be look up a key from a tdble, and tried it, and observed, " This is nut it." He then took an iron instrument from one of the other men and broke open the bureau, and - took out . a bag containing from 35 to 40 sovereigns and three 101 notes of the Hastings' Bank. He then looked over the papers, and strewed them about the room. The sane man then took witness's coat, in which was a :picket-book, containing tcu Si. notes of the Hastings' Oank, a cheque, drawn by Mr. Young, the solicitor, for 341. 185. 5d., and a note of hand for 1001. The witness positively identified the prisoner, William ;Foster, as the man who had the candle and knife in his hands, and Charles Foster as an other man in the room. The CHAIRMAN asked the prisoners whether they wished to put any questions to Mr. Hollands, but they replied in ; ,the negative. Mr. - John . Fuggles, a venerable-looking gentleman, and who was stilf.suffering from the brutal ill usage he had re ceived, deposed that be was on a visit to his friend, the -prosecutor. gearing an extraordinary noise in Mr. Hof land's bedroom, he got up and went there, and found the door wide open, and observed three men standing; one of Lthem instantly. pointed a gun at his breast, about a foot from him, with Gut trtering a word, which he seized, and after a short but severe struggle succeeded in wresting it away, when he received two blows, one on the arm and the other on the head, by which he was stunned. Witness . could not say who struck him, or what he was struck with, but his surgical attendant was of opinion the blows were inflicted with the prickle. On recovering his senses he saw thfee men standing over him. The prisoner Charles Foster was one of them ; he could not identify the others. Chas. Foster was not the man who pointed the gun at him. By the Bench—There was a light in the room when he went in. The man who had the gun did not use any threat,. or utter a word. Wanes; was steeped in blood. On -the night-cap, shirt, and under-waistcoat, worn by the winters at the time, being produced, ejaculations of terror eadaped from the Magistrates and the others pre sent, as the things presented a: most horrifying appe.r- Brice, from the great quantity of blood with• which they had been sattaratc,t. Tao nieces of the prosecutor, and a number of other witnesses, were examined, when the Beech slid, that with respect to ail the prisoners, but James Foster, they consi dered the evidence as sufficient to commit upon, but that they would wish for further evidence as against him. The witnesses were bound over to give evidence at the ensuing Assizes, and Mr Hollands to prosecute. Richard Ede, iiinnage, and Smith, were also bound over to give evidence, if necessary ; and Edward Edo, who had given the information on which the Fosters were apprehended, was kept in custody for the same purpose. The inquiry did not taseninate until a late hour in the evening. Mr. Hollands was warmly congratulated by a great num ber of gentlemen of his neighbo•irhood, who were present, and Lad subsenbed to the reward of 200 guineas offered for the discovery of the perpetrators of this daring outrage.
