SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS FROM THE DAILY PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. ( From the Morning Chronicle.) In Alison's work on the Principles of Population, and their connection with Huma n Happiness, a curious attempt is made to derive arguments for the Corn-laws from the great population-law which the writer undertook to illustrate. Such an attempt bears evidence of sophistry on the very face of it. The inhabitants of this island have already multiplied beyond resources for their subsistence which it produces. As an attempt to raise the home supply to the demand, the Corn laws are a signal failure. We have imported, we do im port, and we must import. Nature and necessity have settled that question, in spite of the monopolists. It is true that we import irregularly, so as to do the farmer the least possible good, and the manufacturer the greatest possible harm ; so as to aggravate the fluctuation of prices, instead of steadying them ; so as to prevent all regular production of a foreign supply for our markets, and create oc casional drains of specie for the payment, instead of meeting it with a regular interchange of the products of our industry ; that is to say, we import in the worst manner conceivable in stead of the best. We do it, nevertheless. If we did not, there would be a surplus population to kill off; or to get rid of in some way or other. Logically to apply the principle of po pulation to this state of things, is simply to show that the Corn-laws are a means by which wretchedness, guilt, and de struction may be brought into play for the diminution of the population down to such a number that the landowners can furnish the required supply of food, and obtain their own prices. (From the Times.) Among the various causes which, without implying any dis satisfaction with the doctrine or ritual of the established reli gion, tend materially to diminish the attendance of its attached adherents, the damp and dilapidated condition of country churches is undoubtedly one of the most prominent and inex ousable. Few persons can have been much in the habit of frequenting divine ordinances in certain rural districts with out •bserving the extreme dis-repair into which many of the sacred fabrics have latterly fallen—a state of things, which, besides being extremely discreditable to the pa rochial authorities, is by no means consistent with na tional decency in the service of Almighty God. In vast numbers of instances, the frail doors of the building will hardly turn upon their hinges, the broken panes of glass are stuffed with straw, the walls supporting an insufficient roof are wet with perpetual tricklings, and sundry puddles are often to be found in the hollows of the clay floors. With such wretched accommodation as this, it is almost too much to expect that, when comfortable Dissenting chapels are generally to be found in every neighbourhood, the zealous churchmanship of the parishioners shall induce them to encounter all sorts of colds, rheumatisms, and lumbago 3, rather than darken the threshold of the unaccredited voluntary temple. On the other hand, the architectural barbarisms, with which numerous ancient churches have been disfigured, under the hands of modern innovators, and the uneeclesiastical style in which many recent churches have been fitted up, have crone far to destroy among us that consonancy of the spirit with ' the outward form of devotion, which approves itself equally to the reason and the taste. For the purpose of arresting the further progress of these evils two institutions very powerfully sup ported (the Camden Society at Cambridge, and the Architec tural Society at, Oxford), are now usefully employed, in various ways, in directing public attention to the subject, particularly by the circulation of pertinent tracts addressed to the office bearers and friends of the Church. (From the Morning Post.) Our readers may perhaps remember that when a Whig-Ra dical gentleman named Alcock, who had been turned out of his seat for Ludlow on account of bribery, was making an absurd attempt to get into Parliament again for the county of Surrey, lw made about a hundred and fifty-seven speeches, in as many different public-houses, on the subject of the repeal of the Corn-laws. For these speeches he was very much applauded by the Ministerial journals, and especially by the Morning Chronicle. Now, his argument was (but then it was the far mers of Surrey he talked to, and hoped to bamboozle), that the price of foreign corn would be so raised by a British demand for it, that its introduction here would not lower our price ! The value of British land, and of Britiish produce, he said, could not be deteriorated. While enlWeening the select company of all the Radical pothouses in East Surrey with these philosophical opinions, the Chronicle was daily holding him up to admiration as the fittest man in the world to sit in Parliament and legislate fur the people, the bribery at Ludlow in nowise notwithstanding. But the philo sophy which the same Chronicle preaches now, or did preach within these two days, goes to prove that Mr. Alcock talked like an idiot at the very time he was so cried up as the properest man alive to be sent into Parliament. That sagacious print now asserts that the poor know that in every shilling's worth of bread they buy they are paying sevenpence-halfpenny for food, and fourpence-halfpenny for tax. If this be true (our Con temporary will perhaps excuse us for putting hypothetically what it so positively asserts), the fact must be so, for neither poor nor rich can know that to be which, in fact, is not. Now if the Corn-lag operates as a tax of fourpence halfpenny in the shilling, the repeal of the law must, according to all the rules of political economy (not one jot or tittle of which the Chronicle can be so heretical as to doubt), bring down the price by 33 per cent. at the least. What, then, comes of the Alcockian philosophy, which represents the repeal as not likely to bring down the price at all? And what becomes of the consistency of those who agreed with Mr. Alcock, and now agree with the Chronicle? (From the Globe.) The Standard last night, in an article devoted to an ticipations and predictions as to the principal busi ness which will come before Parliament after the recess, lays special stress on " the motion of Sir Robert Inglis, for extending the means of religious worship in some approximation to the wants of the country." This sub ject, we are assured, is among those which, from their supreme importance, will " force themselves upon pub lic attention" at the re-assembling of Parliament. That the imperturbable Baronet will again bring forward his pet scheme of " Church Extension," w's have little doubt—that when he does bring it for ward, it will share the fate which has invariably attended it, we are assured, not merely from the extravagance of the proposal, which is so utterly impracticable as to render its being entertained by the House of Com mons, with anything like gravity, out of the question— but also from the present policy of the cooler portion of the Tory party, which has become increasingly con. scious that its only hope of office rests upon assuming a tone and bearing of moderation, hoping thus to con• ciliate the nation, by inducing the belief that they are vastly different from their predecessors—that they have eschewed the evils which rendered the Tories of former days odious to the people ; are ready to conform them selves to the spirit of the age ; and in all things dis play themselves advocates of improvement, liberality, and retrenchment. Such professions are odious to the .Slandar•d, who deems them an abandonment of principle for expediency ; and therefore denounces and pro scribes Sir Robert Peel for thus bidding high for popu larity. The inflexible Protestant organ has again and again virtually proclaimed the nominal leader of the Tories as unworthy to be the head, or even a member of a Protestant administration ; and has warmly exhorted the " Conservative democracy " to look out for leaders who will concede nothing to expediency ; the said " Conservative democracy" being at the same time en couraged by the assurance that such leaders are ready to obey their call, to place themselves at their head, and to rescue the Protestant Establishment from the hands of the base trucklers, who have betrayed it into the hands of those who sought its destruction. (From the Standard.) We have hitherto maintained upon the subject of the late visitation at York that reserve which we feel to be due by the public press to all judicial proceed ings ; and as the party principally concerned has declared his purpose of carrying the case to some ulterior tribunal, the considerations which first en joined silence are still in full force. It is true that the court of primary jurisdiction has made its award, and that that award is entitled to all the respect due to the high character of the tribunal ; but wherever the law allows of an appeal, the primary sentence can be regarded as at best only raising a pre sumption ; and this presumption will be of more or less weight according to the nature of the defence. Where a party accused acknowledges the jurisdic tion, and defends himself upon the merits, the pre sumption, upon a conviction, will be very stro',, against him, wher e , as i n t h e case before us, the —cha racter of the Court for probity and intellia , above exception ; but where, on the other lice is ' l;and,. a defendant, whether well or ill advised, his the authority of his judges, and withholds upon merits, it is quite plain that 111 • is ' fen ' Ach evidence the e trial must be upon ex parte evidence, and upon s most able and upright judge may co ale to ..._ an erroneou s decision. We are not justifying ; t i e li ne taken by the Dean of York ; still less are we desi rous to i mpeach the sentence pronounced agr,tnsL him. We would be understood as merely argui . ,,ig that unless that sentence shall be found to be legall , j, afinal one, the case is no t yet ripe for animadversion joy the public journals; and that if, unfortunately for the sufferer by it, it shall be ascertained to be a sentence without appeal, the late Dean must be looked upon as one who may be the victim of a mist Ake as to his proper line of defence, and possibly a man, who,ly innocent of the charges by which, tSrough thi, mistake, he has suffered himself to he overwhcln'.ed without resistance. In short, we hold it our duty to regard the late Dean as at present no more than art accused man, and therefore entitled to the or dinary presumption in such cases, that how strong soever the prima facie case against him, he may yet be able to rebut it. MSS OF AN EMIGRANT SHlP.—Wednesday morning intelligenc e was received from the island of Tyree, that the brig Majestic, Captain Tait, from London for Londonderry, to embark emigrants for America, was to tally wrecked at Tyree on the evening of Friday, the 2d inst. Early that day she was struck by a heavy sea off Skerryvore Rock , which instantly laid the vessel on her beam-ends Melancholy to relate, the Captain and three of his crew were washed overboard, and unfortunately perished, one tremendous wave having forever bid them from human aid or view. As the ill-fated vessel was drifting to leeward, the sea at the time running very high, several boats gallantly ventured to her assistance, and after considerable difficulty and danger succeeded in getting her :into Gott Bay. The anchor was immediately l et go, b ut failed i n b r i ng i ng h er u p (the ballast having shifted), and became entangled with the cable. .She in c onsequence soon after struck hea v ily upon a rock in the bay, and went dawn. A consid era bl e part of the lower masts 13 abo ve water. Fortu na t e ly, th e mate an d the remainder of th e crew escaped the s a d f a t e o f th e i r co mpanions, having been saved by the boats that went to the brig's assistance. THE BACHELOR OF ARTS EXECUTIONER.:-- The Vigie de Morbihan relates that at a late competition for the vacant post of executioner at Bourges, the suc cessful ca n did ate was an M.D., who had acted as assistant to the executioner at Vannes. " This person," it adds, " is a bachelor in letters, and has united with his above public offic e t h e exercise' of the medical profession, for which he has a diploma as an oificier de sante and bad even a long li s t o f patients. The authorities wished him to relinquish his latter practice, bnt he persevered, declar ing somewhat sarcastically t h at he knew no law which rendered the medical profession incompatible with that of executioner," MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. (FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY.) CHRONICLE.—The funds have been firm to-day, and Consols have improved slightly. To-morrow being settling day the options were declared to-day, the result of which was that Consols were called at 90k by the jobbers, and from the appearance of the market, it would rather indicate a Bear account. This being settling day in the Foreign House, the job bers wore principally engaged in settling their accounts. The differences to be paid, however, were unusually small, the fluc tuations in the various securities during the account having been extremely limited. It has been reported to-day, that the liabilities of Messrs. Wakefield and Son had assumed a more serious aspect ; but, we believe there is no reason to estimate them at more than 70,000/. TIMES—More business has been transacted in the various Government stocks to-day, and, what with money being easy and purchases made by the speculators to arrange to-morrow's account, values have improved nearly per cent., the market closing firm. The vacancy of broker to the Equitable Assurance Company, occasioned by the failure of Messrs. Wakefield and Co., has been filled to-day by the appointment of Messrs. Capel, Cuer ton, and Cundy. It is understood the applicants for this ap pointment were 21 in number. The arrangement with the holders of the " United States Bank" debentures, part of which will become due to-morrow, will be effected in the following manner : The whole amount, which is 800,0001., is already secured by a deposit of $2,662,000 Pennsylvanian 5 per Cent. Stock, $900,000 Michigan 6 per Cents., and 8888,000 Missis sippi 5 per Cents., amounting altogether to $4,450,000. For the portion which falls due to-morrow namely, 400,0001., an additional deposit of $225,000 Pennsylvanian 5 per Cents. has been made, and this additional secu rity procures the consent of the holders to postpone their claims. With respect to the half-yearly coupons attached to the deben tures, they will be paid to-morrow as usual. The remaining 400,0001. of the principal debt falls due on the 15th of April, 1842. The application of so large an amount of assets belong ing to the " United States Bank" as security for only an in considerable portion of their debts, proves how completely the whole must have passed beyond the reach of the shareholders and the more immediate claimants upon them. By the usual official return published by the Customs, the exports of the precious metals from the port of London to fo reign and colonial parts for the week ending Thursday, the Bth instant, was as under Ounces. Silver coin to Hamburgh 208.200 Silver coin to Rotterdam ..... 196,000 Silver coin to Belgium Silver bars to Hamburgh HERALD.—The transactions in the Funds have been in considerable, but the quotations improved and were well sup ported. It is understood that a fiat has issued against the Messrs. Wakefieldto-day, whose liabilities are carried by report as high as 200,0001., which however appears an incredibly large sum considering the limited extent of their banking business. The profitable appointment of stockbrokers to that ponderously wealthy concern, the Equitable Assurance Company, which they had long enjoyed, has been conferred to-day upon Messrs. Capel, Cuerton, and Cundy, a firm of well-known respecta bility arid high standing on the Stock Exchange. Two or three failures of an unimportant character were re ported to-day in the vicinity of Fenchorch-street. But one occurred in the tea trade of an old established concern to a more serious amount ; not, however, said to exceed 60,000/. The tea market notwithstanding was more firm to-day and prices rather better. The delay which must intervene before any arrivals can be expected from the coasts of China, and even before cargoes can be taken in and completed at Whampoa, supposing that the preliminary convention of Captain Elliot be confirmed and a treaty founded on it finally concluded, which many people are inclined to doubt, has contributed to allay the panic among the holders of tea and to stop the downward ten dency of prices. POST.—The operations of the Stock markets were con fined to-day almost exclusively to the home securities, the quotations for which are again upon the rise. Money for stock-jobbing purposes is easy, loans for short periods on the deposit of English stock being obtainable at from 2 to 3 per cent. ; discounts are also procured without trouble. It was the half-monthly settling day in the Foreign funds. No difficulty arose upon the occasion that we are aware of. The transactions in this branch of the Stock Exchange have not during the fortnight been extensive. The stoppage of a house of some standing and respectability in the tea trade was the subject of conversation on 'Change. The liabilities of the party are considerable, though they can not perhaps be called absolutely large. Amounts have been named, and not without some confidence. Nothing that can he at all depended upon on this point is, however, yet known. The late fall in the prices of the leaf upon a heavy stock, part of which is becoming due, is the cause assigned for the present suspension. Company's congous were sold to-day at Is. sid. per lb. cash. It is understood that a docket has been struck against Messrs. Wakefield and Co. upon the petition of a creditor in Suffolk. The debts owing by this firm are estimated at the large amount of 200,0001. MORNIN G EDITION THE REV. THOMAS ARCHER. The annual soiree connected with the Scotch Chapel in Oxendon-street, was held at Exeter Hill last evening. Nearly four hundred persons sat down to tea and coffee, which was plentifully supplied, and of good quality. The net proceeds of the sale of tickets arc to be applied to the benefit of the funds of the Christian Instruction and Dorcas Societies, in connection with the chapel. The proceedings of the evening received a peculiar interest by advantage being taken of the occasion to present the Rev. Mr. Archer, minister of the chapel, with a large salver, of about 100 ounces, and a handsome Bible, purchased with subscriptions raised among several persons who had at tended his course of week-day lectures on the Evidences of Christianity, as the best means they had of evincing their approbation of his unwearied exertions in the cause of re ligion. The salver and Bible were presented to the Rev. Gentleman by William Liefchild, Esq., with a very im pressive and suitable address. The salver bears the fol lowing incription, viz.:— " Presented to the Rev. Thomas Archer By a few Friends', Who are anxious to testify, by this slight memorial, - - Their appreciation of his able course of Lectures on The Evidences of Christianity, Lately delivered at Oxend, , n Chapel, And their high regard For his noble and disinterested efforts in The cause of Truth. 14th April,lB4l."

The Chinese cannot fight, and the panic occasioned among them by the shells and Congreve rockets is beyond description; they are greater cowards than ever I thought them. Their numbers are of no avail, indeed a disadvantage. You will see we have not gained even liberty of trade to the northern ports, on which our hopes of increasing the sale of British manufactures were founded. I cannot believe that Par liament will approve Captain Elliot's conduct. The Chi nese are already chuckling, and say they Imo got the best of it. It makes me quite sick to think of it, and there are not half a dozen people, either on shore or afloat who are not quite furious." NEW SOUTH WALES.—The following is an extract from a letter which we received on this day from Sydney, dated 4th November, 18.10:—" Mercantile affairs are in a most deplorable state just now. There is nothing but failures and rumours of failures.

ANTI-CORN -LAW PETITION.—We learn that last night this petition had received no fewer than 15,000 names. The Committ ee , we understand, are desirous to close the petition on Saturday, by which tirae, we hope, the number of signatures w ill b e more than doubled.— Scotsman, THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY, APRIL 16. 1841 LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY, ArvL 15. This being the first day of Easter Term, the Lord Chancellor did not take his seat in Court until nearly two o'clock, in consequence of having to entertain the Judges, Masters in Chancery, and Queen's Counsel, to breakfast at his house in Bruton-street. His Lordship, on taking his scat, was accompanied by the Master of the Rolls, the Vice-Chancellor, and Masters WingfieH and Ferrer. His Lordship proceeded to hear motions, but no case of any interest came before his Lordship previous to the rising of the Court. VIOE-C.HANCELLOR'S COURT, APRIL 15. His HONOUR the VICE-CHANCELLOR did not take his sea in his Court at Westminster till nearly two o'clock. HOUGHTON V. HOUGHTON. His HONOUR gave judgment in this case, dismissing the bill with costs. WILSON V. WILLIAMS. His HONOUR also gave judgment in this case, which was argued before his Honour about six weeks since. The case came before the Court upon motion for a new trial of an issue, tried before Mr. Baron Parke at Stafford, with respect to the validity of the Rill of a gentleman of the name of Williams. The Jury, under the direction of the Learned Judge, found a verdict in favour of the will, and , the grounds on which the application for a new trial was made, were misdirection on the part of the Learned Judge. His HONOUR after going at considerable length into the facts of the case, stated that he felt bound to dismiss the motion with costs. The Court then proceeded to hear motions, but no case of any intcreit occurred up to the rising of the Court. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, APRIL 15. At half-past one o'clock, Lord Denman, Mr. Justice Patteson, Mr. Justice Williams, and Mr. Justice Wight man took their seats on the Bench. EDWARDS V. FREENE AND ANOTHER. In this cue, which was tried before Mr. Justice Wight man at the last Cornwall Assizes, and in which a verdict was had for the plaintiff, damages 371., Mr. Crowder applied to the Court for a rule to show cause why the ver dict should not be set aside on the ground of its being against evidence. The question in the case was whether there was a partnership between the defendant Freen and his brother at the time the goods were sold to him. The evi dence was of a very uncertain nature, and a jury impan ntlled on the following day to try another action against the same defendants, found a verdict the other way. Mr. Justice Wig htman said there were discrepancies in the evidence of the two principal witnesses on the se cond trial. The COURT granted the rule. Lord DENMAN, after going through the Bar, and finding that none of the Learned Counsel present had any motions to make, observed that be had upwards of forty enlarged rules lying before him, and the Court was in hopes that some of them would be ready for argument. They should certainly go to the new trial paper on the following day as a matter of course, and it might as well be then stated as a notice from the Court that they should take motions every day except those fixed for the other papers (namely, the Special and Crown paper days), and if no motions came before them they should immediately proceed to the new trial paper. BAIL COURT, APRIL 15. (Before Mr. Justice COLERIDGE. His Lordship did not take his seat upon the bench until nearly two o'clock, and after hearing one or two motions of course, the Court rose at a quarter after two. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, APRIL 15. The Lord Chief Justice, Justices Bosanquet, Coltman, and Erskine came into Court at half-past one o'clock. Their Lordships took the New Trial paper. FELBY V. LOCKHART. The parties in this case are both wino and spirit mer chants. The plaintiff being indebted to the defendant in the year 1839, gave him two acceptances in 731. each, payable at two and four months ; hut having the misfor tune to break his leg, he was unable to provide for the first of these bills, and the defendant, upon receiving two other acceptances of longer dates, undertook to provide for these. The defendant, however, became bankrupt in the mean time, and the plaintiff had to pay for all the bills and the costs that were incurred through his want of preparation. Under these circumstances he brought this action of as. sumpsit, and the defendant not denying the facts pleaded his bankruptcy. A verdict, however, was given for the plain. tiff, 162/., being the costs incurred by the defendant's neglect to take up the first bills according to his guarantee. The Chief JUSTICE at the trial gave leave to move for a new trial. Mr. Sergeant CHANNELL now obtained a rule nisi ac cordingly. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, APRIL 15. The Chief Baron, Barons Park, Alderson, and Rolfe took their scats upon the Bench at balf•past one o'clock. PAGE V. JARVIS. Mr. WIIATFLEY, when this case was called on from the new trial paper, said that the brief of Mr. Richards, who had been instructed in the case, had been but just put into his hands. He was therefore not prepared to move. Lord ABINGER-Where is Mr. Richards? Mr. WHATELEY-1 am sorry to say, my Lord, he is confined by illness. Lord A . IITNGER—What is the matter with him ? Mr. WitATELEv—My Lord, he has caught the SCAR LET fever,—( Great laughter.) Lord. ABINGER (smiling)-011, indeed. Mr. WHATELEY-BUt I am happy to assure you Lord ship and the Bar that it is a very mild attick.—(Great IP.ughter.) _ _ The case was then ordered to stand over. TURTLE V. WALLIS. This was an action for a breach of an agreement under which the defendant undertook to stipple-etch a life-likeness of the Rev. Dr. Dillon, at a price to be named by the defendant, the plaintiff undertaking to procure a sitting from the Rev. Doctor, the work to be sent home in three weeks. The Lord Chief Baron nonsuited the plaintiff at the trial, on the ground that the agreement was void, be cause of the vagueness of the price. Mr. PLATT now contended that the nonsuit was right, not only on that ground, but also because the agreement proved was different from that in the record. In the latter there was not a word about the sitting of Dr. Dillon. Mr. CROWDER, in support of his rule for a new trial, contended that the latter point was not made at the trial and even were it so, there was nothing to show ':sat, it was any part of the contract—it might have been a mere promi s e on th e part of '',.'urtle to assist his friend Mr. Wallis. Wi'2n respect to the first, point, the defendant had sent home the etchi; i g, but not in time; however, he had brought his ailtion and had actually got 261. s s. f or h i s l a b our. He thought the whole question ',vas one for the consideration of the Jury. The COCRT were of opinion that the rule ought to be discharged upon tlie latter ground. They were clearly of opinion that the sitting of Dr. Dillon formed a part, and an essential part of the agreement.--Rule discharged. CRIMINAL COURT, APRIL 14. (Before the COMMON SERGEANT.) CONCEALING THE BIRTH OF A CHlLD.—Clarissa Prebble, aged 21, was indicted for that she, on the 24th of March, at Greenwich, did cast and throw a child born of her body into a certain privy, with endeavour and intent to conceal the birth of the said child. Several female witnesses were examined, and the fact of pregnancy and deliNery were clearly proved, but there was no evidence to iiustaiu the principal averment in the indictment, viz., that she cast away the child with the view of concealing its birth. The Jtvey, under the direction of the Court, returned a verdict of Acquittal. Wm. Green and Sarah Davies were indicted for steal ing, on the 3d March, a gold ring, value 10s., the pro perty of John Butler, but the evidence being very incon clusive, the Jury acquitted both prisoners. IN THE MATTER OF JOHN PORTER, alias J. PORTMAN. —The above-named prisoner was convicted on Wednes day last of stealing divers printed books and other articles, the property of Mr. Roberts, the proprietor of the Ches terfield Courier, to which Journal the prisoner was a reporter. Since the conviction a conference has been held be tween the Judge and Jury, and other communications hare been made to the Court, in order to induec a lenient sentence. The prisoner was placed at the bar this morning, when the Common Serjeant told him that he had given his case every possible consideration in his power, and it did occur to him that, perhaps, when some portion of the property was taken it was taken without any contemplation of com mitting a felony. At the same time, there were other articles besides printed books which had been sworn to. After all, it was more in consideration of the strong re commendation of the Jury than his natural capacity and respectable station he held in society that he was about to pass the following lenient sentence, which was, that he be kept to bald labour in the house of correction for the county in which his offence was committed for the space of three calendar months. some respited ; and others ordered to be privately whipped and discharged. Twenty-four persons were discharged by proclamation, the Grand Jury having ignored the Els preferred against them. The Court at its rising adjourned to the 10th of May. CITY OF LONDON ADJOURNED SESSIONS. (Before the RECORDER and Aldermen WHITE and PIRIE. A considerab'e time elapsed before a Court could be made, owing to the circumstance of none of the Aldermen being present. The early part of the day was occupied in hearing cases against individuals indicted for committing ❑uisances, by keeping brothels in various parts of the City, most of whom were bound over in personal sureties of 200/. to be of good behaviour for two years. No case of any interest occurred. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION. HO USE. A man named Edward Macon, was Charged with hav ing robbed Mr. Joseph Taylor, his employer, a plumber, of various sums of money. John Paul, assistant-clerk to the Board of Guardians of the City of London Union, stated that on the 11th cf April, 1840, he paid the prisoner the sum of 11. 153. 9d., the amount of a bill for plumber's work done on the pre mises of the Board, 35, Cannon -street, by Mr. Taylor. William Wells, of No. 20, Budge-row, cork manufac turer, stated that on the 13th March he paid the prisoner the sum of 5/. Bs., for plumber's work done by Mr. Taylor. The receipts of the prisoner for the money were pro duced. Mr. Taylor said that the prisoner had been in his service as a clerk about a year and a half, and in that capacity had been employed to collect accounts from the customers. Witness had recently discovered the embezzlement, by the prisoner, of various sums of money, and the prisoner had never paid over to him any part of the two sums specified, nor made any entry of them in the books. A constable who apprehended the prisoner, stated that in the prisoner's room he found a letter addressed to Mr. Taylor, containing a full admission of the offence, and ex pressing hopes of forgiveness ; and in the letter was a list of names (thirteen in number), and sums of money re ceived by the prisoner and cot accounted for. The letter was acknowledged by the prisoner to be in his hand-writing. Committed for trial. Two well-dressed young men, named George Hudson and Samuel Mason, who have been in the habit of pick ing pockets, were put to the bar, ehargJd with haviNg at tempted to rob a Mrs. Barfoot. The prisoners were well disguised with cloaks lined with silk, and decorated with tasiels. A gentleman saw one of the prisoners walk up to Mrs. Barfoot in Fenchurch-street, raise her gown, and take something from her ; while the other held his cloak so as to screen the thief from public observa , ion. When Mrs. Barfoot was asked whether she had lost anything, she looked on the ground and saw her purse lying there. It contained several duplicates, which she valued at 51. The prisoner, who had picked her pocket, was immediately apprehended, and the other expostulated with him, re., presenting that it was quite impossible that so resperi.",able a person could be guilty of an act of the kind. "i'h .! two prisoners were soon identified by the police as the asso ciates of well-known thieves. Mason—Thieves! not at all. It'a quite a mistake, I do assure you, my Lord. The LORD MAYOR—Pray where do you live, young man ? Mason—Why, my Lord, I don't like to say ex actly, not at present. The LORD MAYoa—.The officers seem to know some thing about you ? Masou—Not at all, my Lord. I've only just come to town. They say that I had a cloak on rue. Nuw, I never saw that cloak in my life before this day. The LORD MAYOR—Has Hudson anything to say ? Hudson—Nothing. The officers said that the thieves dressed so elegantly every thy, that it was difficult to discover them except when actually engaged in plundering; and it was a com mon manoeuvre to use dashing cloaks as a blind. Committed. FORGERY AND SWINDI.ING ON A LARGE SCALE.-_A paragraph appeared in some of the papers of Wednesday, statug some of the circumstances of an extensive case of swinating, in which a Spani.li refugee, who assumed the name of the Chevalier de la Mott, was concerned. The paragraph truly represented that the pretended Chevalier had obtained from Messrs. P. and L., eminent merchants in London, a large sum of money upon forged bills, by means of a forged letter of introduction of Messrs Chau vileau and Co., of Paris, but it did not state that the capture of the offender was effected principally through the activity and talent of John and Daniel Forrester, the officers of this Justice-room. When these officers re ceived information of the commission of the offence, they soon succeeded in ascertaining the real name of the offender, and his residence both in London and Paris, and upon mak i ng communication of these particulars to the plundered parties, John Forrester was directed to pro ceed to Paris, and after his arrival there on the sth inst., the delinquent, was apprehended. G UILDHALL. A respectable-looking man, named Joseph Lowe, was placed at the bar before Mr. Alderman HUMPIIERY under the following circumstances _ Henry Be - flinger said he was a clerk in the employment of the Joint Stock Union Bank of London, Moorgate street. The prisoner came into the bank-room and pre sented a check for 30/., put porting to be signed by Mr; Addis, of Newman's Wharf, Pi c kl e h err i ng , w h o h a d an account with the Bank. On looking at the sig. nature, he at once perceived it to be a gery, and asked th e prisoner for his na: ,ne and address, which he gave as Joseph Lowe, cor: Acaler, 85, \Vhitecross-street. At the instance of t prisoner was given into custody. A r Manager the — .other cheek for 501., sented for payment at the Bar , ' purporting to be signed by the sar.. gie gentleman, was pre individuala few days ago, but the ' lc perceiving some doubts made off, and, a l t w il h o o u g p h r resented d sty pursued, e: Gaped. Police constables7o stated th a t h e went to t h e a dd ress given by the `,,risoner, and found it true. He was living Mr, there, and apparently a very respectable man. ' Addis said he never saw the prisoner before ; the fl r ',,,nature to the check was a forgery, and quite unlike his handwriting. Al hough he kept the check book under lock and key, ten blank checks had been stolen from it. The prisoner, in his defence, said that yesterday a per son came into his shop and bought a quantity of corn and other goods to the amount of 19/., for which he gave the check which formed the subject of the present charge, and received the change. He desired the goods to be sent to the Rose Inn, Farringdon-street, but be (the prisoner) kept them until he should be aware if the check were genuine. Tho person who gave him the check was about five feet six inches high, rather fat, and square built, and wore a blue frock coat and white waistcoat. Mr. Alderman Hurdl-lEla said he did not think, as the prisoner was a respectable man, he should be justified in detaining him; but he hoped he would afford every as sistance in his power to discover the person who first passed the check. The prisoner was then discharged. BO W-STREET. The prisoner bowed to the Court, and the Jury retired from the bar. SENTENCES AND SESSIONAL RESULTS. Transportation for Life—J.

A great number of other prisoners were sentence' other terms of imprisonment, varying from three to three days. A great number were acquitted; '' to MOnthg A fashionably-attired young man, who gave his name as Samuel Bate, was put forNard, charged with having violently assaulted a young woman as she was passing along the Strand. It appeared from the evidence of the complainant that she was, with her husband, going along the Strand, on their way home, when the prisoner came up to her and made use of some abusive language, and on her remon strating with him he struck her, and she called for a po liceman, but he refuied to take the prisoner into custody, as he did not see the assault committed, but advised the complainant to walk on and he would fullow her, and if he again assaulted her he would take him into custody. They bad not proceeded far before the prisoner returned to the complainant, and, without the slightest provocation, struck her violently on the head and knocked her down, and then kicked her. The policeman then came up, and after a severe struggle, during which the prisoner struck the officer a severe blow in the mouth, he was taken to the station-house. The pol'ce constable corroborated this evidence, and the prisoner, being called upon for his defence, denied the charge, and wished to be remanded that he might send for a solicitor, and also some friends, who would prove that he was not there at all. After some hesitation the Magistrate consented to his being remanded till Saturday next. MORE POST-O FFICE ROBBERIES.—James Roose, a young min of respectable appearance, was charged before Mr. TWYFORD with stealing, whilst on duty in the employ of the General Post-office, a letter con taining a sovereign, the p-operty of Airs. Ann Lance field. Mr, Peacock attended on the part of the prosecution. John Forbes stated, that he was a messenger belong.. ing to the General Post-office ; that he was on duty on Wednesday morning in the inland-office, and that the prisoner was engaged in the same office. It was than eight o'clock, and he was sitting close to him (witness), occupied in the examination of postage stamps, fixed upon letters, which had arrived by.the morning mails. Towards the close of the work, there was a sm a ll pac k et o f letters left on t h e ta bl e w h ere t h e prisoner w as s i tt i ng. Witness ``reached over" to take these lett ers , f or t h e purpose of putting the date stamps upon them, it b e i ng part of his duty to d o so . H e th en per ceived what h e conce i ved t,o be t h e corner o f a l etter " standing out" from under the inkstand, which he moved a little, and observed that it was a movy letter, and that it bore two postage s tamps. Witness waa somewhat surprised at seeing a money letter placed in such a position, but he made no remark ; and in about five minutes he observed the prisoner move the ink stand several times, and afterwards go to the " Scotch division" of the office. At this moment his (witness'y) duty called him to another part of the office. 11Z: couldhnnever, still see t h e ta bl e on whit,`, the inkstand Was placed, and h e saw t h e and afterwa r d s. con; Pr'..oner take up the inksta n d, c towards the door leading down a i n P g l3 e P.. room, red stairs.

He D'eened the door, and went down stairs into the wash stand in his hand. Upon . The letter was h 1 dand the witness identified t ato(' it as being that wb: auce , the prisoners hand at th e time i n au, 'eh he saw in , t Mrs. Lance field, 32 , 7' 1 ..,Etion.

The prisoner was employed in the same office, and was on duty this mornin g at e i ght o ' clock. W i tness wa s also on duty a t the, same time, an d i n conseque nce of a communication e•D judgulent upon he received from th e l a st witness he went down stairs f followed by him (Forbes). He saw the prisoner in the washing-room, and, taking hold of his arm, said he wished to speak to him up stairs. Witness then led him up into the superintending president's office,where he saw Mr. Benjamin Vandergucht, the president on duty. He (wit ness) then told the prisoner that he had received in formation of his having put a letter into his pocket, an,i asked him whether he had done so or not. The pri soner hesitated a moment, and said, " lam sorry to say it is too true." Thereupon he took from his left hand trousers pocket a letter which he gave to Mr. Vandergucht. The letter bore the Edinburgh post stamp, and was dated 12th April. In the regular course of business the letter would arrive at the General Post-office on Wednesday morning, and was one of the let ters which the prisoner was employed in examining. After the prisoner had left the table the letter in question ought to have been stamped with the inland-office dating stamp. It bore no London stamp, and conse sequently could not have reached the stamping-table. Mr. Benjamin Vandergucht said he was one of the presidents of the inland office, and was present when the prisoner was taken into custody. Witness asked him how he could do such a thing. He replied that he went to Greenwich fair on the previous night and got drunk. He did not know what he had been about. Mrs. Ann Lancefield, wife of Alfred Lancefield, stated that she resided in Felix -terrace, Islington, and that her husband was a land surveyor. The letter produced was addressed to her. It was from her mo ther in Edinburgh, and contained a sovereign. Tile prisoner said nothing in his defence, and was committed to Newgate for trial. He was then charged with having in his possession another letter, which had contained money, and had arrived at the General Post-office in the regular course. Mr. Peacock stated that he expected to be enabled at a future period to produce more evidence ; and the prisoner was consequently remanded till Wednesday next. THE EARL. OF CARDIGAN. We copy from the Morning Chronicle of yesterday, a letter relative to recent transactions at the barracks, Hounslow, " from a correspondent," says our Contemporary, " implicitly to be relied on." It records the flogging of a private of the 11th Hussars, in the riding school, on Sunday last, imme diately after the conclusion of prayers and a sermon. If the story be true, there is no language of reprobation too strong to he applied to so flagrant, indecent, and unnecessary an outrage on the sacredness of the day—so unseemly an affront solemn ceremonies whichhad just before been f,; , the celebrated. Nothing but a sudden act of mutiny on the celebrated. being in active part of the of fender, or the circumstance of his regie service, or in the field, or doi- ,ent • . town, where it might be of .g duty in a ga r r i so n incalculable mom en t t o pu could lay a ground, nish instantaneously ever - f flagrant breach o f di sc ipli ne apprehend, even f or th e expe : diency or so sumi ,illry a course of proceeding under the cii - cumstances `,sated. in one part of its publication of yesterday, the ning Chronicle, we ob serve , p u bli s h es " ;.n old sol dier's letter," under the heading " The Earl of Cardigan." in another it concludes an article on the same subject, with these words—" Lord Cardigan should have been a Pagan and not a Christian. He would have been the very man to stick a knife into the victim beside the altar." This is pronouncing a pretty strong opinion on a case, the whole of which does not seem to be before us. We cannot find in any part of the letter, or from any statement in the previous portion of the Chronicle's commentary, that Lord Cardigan issued the order for the infliction of this punishment, or was pre sent in the barracks at the time, nor do we learn under what circumstances it happened that an offence, which seems to have been committed at Brighton, should have been referred to a district Court-martial, and the punishment for it be inflicted in the quarters of the regiment in another county. These circumstances, we dare say, will be in due time sufficiently explained; but in the absence of further infor mation upon them, we think we shall best discharge our duty for the present, by calling public attention to the facts, as they are alleged by the Chronicle. Should it app ar, on the other hand, that the Earl of Cardigan has really rendered himself ob noxious to the imputations cast upon him, in this case, by the Chronicle, we shall not be slow to call, with the latter, for the most decided and stern expression of displeasure with which the highest authority can visit, what we should then be justified in denouncing as a most flagrant insult on the forms of our Church Service, and a most heartless desecration of the Sab bath.—Morning Herald.

EY.TRAORDINARY ACCIDENT AT SEA.—On Teursday last, during the passage of the John Bull steam ship from Hamburgh to London, an accident of a most singular nature happened to a young man named Clark, an apprentice on board, who is nearly out of his time. Clark was sent into the mainchains some hours after the vessel left Hamburgh, for the purpose of heaving the lead. He was on the larboard side of the vessel, and had been engaged fcr some time in taking soundings, when he was suddenly missed by the mate, who was at the wheel, and who heard a noise resembling that of a man splashing his hands a:;,ci feet in the water. The vessel was immediately stoppe and backed astern, and the boat lowered, and the Ir.en who rowed it looked about for nearly twenty minutes, but without being able to find him. The boat returned to the steamer, and was hoisted up, and the vessel proceeded on her voyage, everybody supposing he was lost. Directly afterwards some of the men went to the side of the vessel, and hauled in the lead line, and to their great surprise pulled up the body of Clark, who had been for nearly twenty minutes it, the water, suspended by the line, which had made a complete hitch knot round his neck, Captain Corbin, the commander of the ship, Mr. Gibbs, the mate, and all the hands that could be spared, lost no time in using every means in their power to save him. He was conveyed to the fore-cabin, stripped, and placed in a hot bath, water having been procured from the boilers for the purpose. Captain Corbin and his mate applied the means recommended by the Royal Humane Society for saving life, hut it was long before the young ' man exhibited the least signs of animation. The Captain and his men would not despair ; they continued their ex ertions, and exactly one hour after the sufferer was taken out of the water he began to show some signs of life. Stimulants were then supplied, and he soon afterwards be came conscious of his situation. His neck and throat were much swollen, and leeches were applied The swelling was soon reduced by the application of the leeches, and by the time the vessel reached London the young man ap• peered to be out of immediate danger. He is now doing well. It appears that when he fell overboard his head was kept above water while the ship was moving, and he was dragged through the sea with it ; but when the vessel stopped he sunk, and remained suspended under water with the rope round his neck. PLYMOUTH, APRIL 12.—Arrived, Her Ma jesty's sloop Acorn ; left Mozambique Dec. 24, 1840 ; Madagascar, Jan. 4, 1841 ; Cape of Good Hope, Jan. 28 ; St. Helena, Feb. 16 ; and Ascension, Feb. 27, The Acorn has beer stationed in the Mozambique-chan ' net, for the suppreision of the slave trade. She has cap tured two barks, one brig, a schooner, and two downs, The first three were completely fitted, having irons, slave decks, &c., and contained valuable cargoes, with 43,000 dollars in specie. The other three had slaves on board. The crew of the Acorn have suffered severely from the climate, and at Madagascar the natives and slave-dealers poisoned the water at one period. The number of deaths was considerable in consequence, all on board having suffered more or less. The Acorn has proved herself an excellent sea boat, and is highly creditable to her com mander, Lieutenant Hankey. She left the Andromache in Simon's Bay on the 28th of January, waiting for the Ad miral. On Sunday, April 4, in lat. 40 52 N., long. 18 16 W., blowing strong, with a tremendous sea, they fell in with a schooner, apparently abandoned. A gun having been first fired over her, the Acorn's largest boat was lowered, and the schooner was boarded. Not a soul was on board ; her boom was broken in two places, and her rudder carried away. Lieutenant Hankey towed her about 500 miles before the weather abated sufficiently to hang a temporary rudder, after which the two vessels kept company, and they are now lying in Plymouth Sound. The schooner proves, by her log, to be the Mary Ann, of Wey mouth, William Carter, master, apparently bound to St. Michael's. Great prais , is due to the commander and crew of the Acorn for the skilful manner in which they se cured the Mary Ann in such boisterous weather. SINGULAR DELUSION.—On Tuesday night, between ten and eleven o'clock, the inhabitants of Black friars-road were thrown into a state of alarm by bearing loud screams of " Murder I" proceeding from the dwell ing-house of Mr. Davis, pianoforte-manufacturer, and im mediately afterwards a female, almost in a state of nudity, was observed to precipitate herself from the back attic win dow upon the leads of the workshop below, a depth of upwards of thirty feet. She immediately started up on her feet and made for the edge of the leads, apparently with an intention of leaping into a deep ditch more than twenty feet beneath, which runs by the side of Mr. Da. via's house. By this time, however, the assistance of the police being obtained, a ladder was brought, and she was rescued from her perilous situation, Mr, Franks, a sur geon, residing next door, promptly attended and conveyed her in a coach to St. Thomas's Hospital, It appears that her name is Jane Hobbs, 23 years of age, and that she was 'Mug in Mr. Davis's tamily as housemaid. For some time past she hiiS been labouring under the delusion that some persons intended to murder her, and on that night she imagined they were breaking into her room for that pur pose, and under the influence of that delusion, and to escape, she leaped from the window, It is a miracle she was not dashed to pieces, THE HOLY WEEK.--;:tht atitlolllldelliebt of the arrival of Lord Broug barn at i 4 . l !;' was i.4r6iicOw:i.

Colonel Fitzgibbon are among the noble visitors of that capital. The number of foreigners attracted by the ceremonies of the holy week is very considerable, and all-the hotels are crowded. The Roman Government has been exceedingly liberal in issu ing tickets for privileged places during the ceremonies. The weather is said to be delightful.—Galiynani's Mes senger. EMIGRATION OF THE SWISS.—The Swiss Journals state that a great number of the inhabitants of Chamounix, although in the enjoyment of a certain degree of wealth, are disposing of their property, with the inten tion of emigrating with their families, some to New York, others to Louisiana, where many of their fellow -country men have made successful settlements. The General Steam Navigation Company's ves sel the Ocean, I. Fife, rom Rotterdam, arrived off the Custom-house at twelve yesterday with the Dutch mail, WOOLWICH-WEDNESDAY. ROYAL ARTILLERY. At a quarter past ten o'clock this forenoon Capt. Hope and Capt. F. Warde's companies of the Royal Artillery, whose arrival from Jamaica in the Horatio transport ship and disembarkation at the Royal Arsenal Woolwich, on Sunday evening has been already announced, assembled on the parade in front of the barrackv, and were inspected by Colonel Lacy, the Inspecting Field-officer of artillery, who reported to Lieutenant-General Lord Bloomfield, G. C. 8., and G. C. H., commanding the garrison, the soldier-like appearance and service order of these companies. Lieut.- Colonel Brandreth, C. 8., Lieut.-Colonel Cruttenden, Brigade-Major Cuppage, and a number of the officers of the regiment were present, and appeared highly gratified to witness the excellence of appearance of this fine body of men. Colonel Lacy has been appointed inspecting Field officer for the season, and intends to introduce several new arrangements, which will add greatly to the effective strength of the garrison. Instead of the usual detachment being sent to Purfleet once a month, as is the case at pre sent, an equal number of old soldiers, who are still fit for light duties but unable to bear the fatigues of field-days, will be stationed at Purfleet, and remain permanently for six months. The officers' servants will also have to appear at drills and parades once a week.. These excellent arrangements arc hailed with pleasure by the men, as they will now have such duties to perform as they are found capable of accomplishing in an effective manner, NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. SHEERNESS, APRIL 13.—Active preparations are going on in the dockyard for the building of Iwo steamers of war, the Cormorant and the Rattler, second class, which are to be got ready with all expedition, orders to that effect having been received from the Lords of the Admiralty a few days ago.
