SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE.—The notice which the Globe has already taken of the extraordinary prosecution instituted by the Right Honourable Viscount Frankfbrt de Montmorency - against Alice Lowe, the unfortunate object of his Lordship's tempo rary " protection,' will lead our readers to ex pect that the trial of the prisoner •and the ver dict of the jury will not be allowed to pass with out some parting remarks upon the extraordinary case as now ,presented by the proceedings. The trial of the . prisoner appeared .in the Globe of yesterday. Accustomed-as Courts of Justice are,. to. exhibitions of human vice and folly, we aro'.. not overstating the fact, when we say that tho s e Whom long experience has familiarised touch scenes were surprised by the account, 4iven by the, noble prosecutor himself, of . his . share in the disgusting transactions he was compelled to narrate in attempting to establish a Case against: the prisoner. There is certainly, no standard . by' which to ascertain the degrees by which indul gence in depravity renders the inrlici Tail' im pervious to shame; but until' the instance yes terday supplied by Lord_ 'Frankfort, it would have been regarded a. a stretch .of malicious invention to have imagined that A . Peer—the representative of a hing line of hbnourable ark;- cestry—a Montmorency, whose proud boast was, in the days when chivalric honour was cherished as the life-blood of nobility, that they 'were " lea premiers baroni Chretiens de 'Ea rope"—that such an one'vrould have entered a Court of public justice, and have become the narrator of his own heartless profligacy—the herald of his own' shame, while the finger of public scorn was pointed at his person, and shouts of plebeian exultation, which the authority of the Court could not restrain, hailed the defeat of the ignoble object for which this nobleman con sented to make himself a spectacle - by the ac quittal of the less guilty and far less contemptible victim of his lordly persecution. • STANDARD.—We find in the columns of the Opposition journals, and in the columns of some journals too that generally support the Govern silent, loud complaints of the new orders issued by the Judges in Equity. We at once disclaim the pretence that we are qualified to form a cor rect judgment upon these complaints as respects the question of detail, hut we think we see suffi cient to justify a doubt wh2ther they are really as well founded as at first sight they may appear. On the one side, the complainants are solicitors,- who, like . all other men, must dislike a departure from the routine that they are accustomed to, and must be thought naturally to. regard unfavourably the new or ders, because they are new, without illiberally Opposing (what would be, we believe, unjust as well as illiberal in reference to the great body of solicitors in equity) that a tendency to dimi nish the amount of bills of costs renders the novelty still more unpalatable. On the other side, we have the authors of. the new orders; men of talent, learning, and experience, and of Unspotted integrity, men who must be conscious that the public is earnestly bent upon an economical, reform in the administration of every department of the law, and who have, in fact, as is notorious, for. years directed their attention to the subject. Such men may no doubt be mistaken in the remedies they pro pose, but surely they are less likely to be mis taken than a solicitor whose attention has been properly limited to the conduct of suits, it may be of a particular class, and it must be in a single office. The presumption, too, that the Judges are in the right, and the remonstrants in error, is greatly strengthened by the grounds of com plaint alleged—these grounds all concern the augmentation of particular fees or payments. Now this augmentation may, according to cir cumstances; be a great additional expense, or a * . e . ry great saving to suitors. If it leave the ag gregate of items in a bill of costs unreduced—if it be accompanied by no provision for the abridg- Inent- of the duration of suits—if it leave all other items undiminished or unexpungcd—it is, of . cOurse, an addition of expense : but if, on the pthei side, it be a necessary part of a system, di minishing materially the number of heads of .charge, and much accelerating the decision of causes, the m augmentation must be extravagant deed should not the whole system effect a con . .siderable saving. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. The New York papers state that money is plentiful, and that there is an increasing disposition to invest in the better sort of stocks. Much of the Government loan has been disposed of at par and interest. There had been much business transacted with the stocks of the dividend-paying States, but with those of the non ming, States scarcely anything had been done. he mercantile business was small, but safe, and piices continued low, while the supply of produce was extensive. The Canada papers give a statement of the probable revenue and expenditure of the province for the year ending the 31st of December next. Under the head of expenditure, the interest on the public debt isstated at 80,0001., and the amount of the civil list at 83,3331., which, with other items described—such as the main tenance of schools, public works, and the several dis trict courts—forms a gross total of 299,5401. 14s. 9d. sterling. The sources of revenue show net Customs duties as 280,000/., net Excise as 32,000/., net terri torial 31,0001., with bank imposts of 10,0001., the in stalment of the American Land Company of 11,111.1, revenues from public works of 21,0001., and other items, forming a total of 352,494/. 18s. sterling. LAW INTELLIGENCE. INSOLVE.NT DEBTORS' COURT, Nov. 1. The Court resumed its sittings this morning, at the usual hour. In consequence of the death of the late lamented Mr. Commissioner Bowen, Mr. Commis sioner Harris presided. IN RE GEORGE lIUMPIIRYES. TllO insolvent's petition was opposed by Mr. Wood rutle, on the grounds of fraudulently making away with property. It appeared that the insolvent had executed certain assignments of his property, and, upon receiving the money, expended a large portion of it in defending an action brought by the opposing creditors, and the rest, according to his schedule, he lost also in law ex penses. He had been now in prison upwards of six months. Mr: Commissioner HARRIS said the insolvent's con :duct rendered him amenable to the 76th section only of the Act, by which a remand of six months could .herinflicted. As he had been in prison since his vesting order fora much longer time than that the judg ment of the Court of course could be only nominal, ,and he regretted this more, as in his experience few 'cases came before him which exhibited more fraud and villainy. Ile was then declared to be entitled to his discharge in six months from the date of his vest ing order. IN RE JOSEPH JOETT. The insolvent, who was described as a wine mer- chant, applied on his petition to be discharged. He had been a bankrupt a short time back when all his property was sold by the assignees, and nothing was available now to his creditors.—Discharged. IN RE THOMAS BODGER-LOAN SOCIETIES. . The insolvents' schedule showed the greater part of his liabilities to have been incurred either as principal or security to Loan Societies. Mr. Commissioner lamas in ordering his dis charge said, those transactions with Loan Societies Were always very doubtful, and in the Loan Societies themselves his daily experience in that Court taught bim there was much which required to be set right. IN RE JOHN MARSHALL. ,The insolvent had carried on business at South- ampto- a as a manufacturer of steam-boilers, and sub- se qu'ently as anengineerand general founder in Col cheiter-street Whitechapel. In 1839 he became bankrupt, when the amount of his debts was 4,0001. The sum from which he now sought to be relieved was nearly 2,000/. Al number of creditors opposed. After a number of cases were heard against his discharge, the Court ordered the further hearing to be adjourned to produce two witnesses. LAW NOTICES.

Bannister and J, ; Campbell, who were acquitted on a -eharge of forgery on Monday last, were this morning arraigned for a misdemeanor, in having an engraved plate for printing notes, re presenting Bank of Englandnotes, in their possession. By arrangement with the prosecutors, the parties pleaded guilty, and were respectively fined one shil ling and dischargel - FORGING AN AWEPTAICCE.-Edward John Steven r9.o WAS indicted for feloniously uttering a forged ac ceptance to a; bill of exchange for 691.; with intent to defraud John Mlinson. .Mr. Bobiori opened the case for the prosecution, and calkkl Jelin Malinson, the prosecutor, who is carrying on biainess as an outfitter. Prisoner, who stated he resided in Ratcliffe-highway, called upon wit ness. Subsequently a person named Williams called on witness, and afterwards Williams and prisoner called together, and selected goods for purchase to the amount of 821. The goods were sent. Williams and prisoner again called, and Williams said that he sup posed cash was always acceptable, and gave witness f)ur 51. notes. Witness had subsequently applied for pa 3, ment of the balance, and saw Williams and the prisoner together. The prisoner had before then told witness that Williams was about to get some bills discounted, and that if he would come down . they would settle his account. A bill for 691. 17s. was given, and witness paid in cash 81. 175., being the difference between the amount of his account and the bill given to him, Williams having refused to take out the difference in goods, or to have any further transactions with him in con sequence of, witness's unbusiness-like conduct in asking payment of his account. The bill was drawn by J. T. Cutting. The prisoner stated that the drawer was the Cap tain of a vessel then at sea, and that he was a respect able man. James Carter, a policeman, who has lived in Ips wich for 36 years, knew a Captain Cutting there, who has been dead these three years. Never knew any other Captain Cutting. Cross-examined—Knew another man named Cut ting, who is not a captain. The other Cutting is a fisherman. Has heard him called Captain Cutting, within the last few days, in London. Witness said to him " You are Captain Cutting here, but you are not in Ipswich." —(A laugh.) From the evidence of other witnesses it appeared, that when taken into custody, the prisoner had stated his name to be Williams, but had after wards admitted that it was Stevenson. It further appeared that several persons had sent goods to the premises in Ratcliffe-highway, occupied by the prisoner, all of which had been removed at an early hour in the morning, and the policeman who searched the premises found nothing there but empty pack ages and cases of shavings, &c. Mr. CLARKSON, for the defence, said he should produce the person who had accepted the bill, and called John Thomas Cutting—l have commanded the Eliza, a fishing-boat of 14 tons. They call me Cap tain Cutting in Ipswich. The acceptance to this bill is my writing. Cross-examined—l have left gaol twelve months. I was there six months. It is five or six years since. I commanded the Eliza. I have a rowing boat now. I wrote my name to that acceptance in Ipswich in July last. I had no goods from Williams, but I con sidered I owed him money. I had lost some cloth of his. My family have applied for relief to the work house. I hawk apples and other things about the street. Mr. BODKIN (handing him a piece of paper)— Write your name on that. The witness went to the table, and wrote his name. I wrote my name and the direction then, which is written across it. I had nothing given me for ac cepting it. Re-examined—Williams told me he would take up the bills, and that I should have no trouble with them. I was in gaol for smuggling—never for debt or for felony—only for smuggling. Mr. CLARKSON—You have never been to prison, then, for anything affecting your character for honesty? Mr. Justice ALtuLE.—What ! not for smuggling ? —(A laugh.) It is committing a fraud on the re venue, and that is dishonest. I cannot suffer such an observation to pass unnoticed. Mr. BODKIN replied. Mr. Justice Mauf.E summed up, and the Jury found the prisoner Not Guilty. Thera was another indictment against the prisoner for a misdemeanor, which he traversed until next sessions. The indictment was for a conspiracy to de fraud. Mr. CLARKSON applied to the Court to admit him to bail. Mr. Justice MAULE—What is the value of the pro perty ? Mr. CLARKSON—Under 2001., my Lord. Mr. Justice MAULE—Then let him give bail, him self in 2001., and two sureties in 100/. each, for his appearance next session. BODIIN—With the usual notice, my Lord ? Mr. Justice MAULS-Of course, with the usual notice. NEW COURT. (Before the COMMON SERGEANT.) Elizabeth Millington, a genteely dressed young female, was indicted for stealing on the Ist of last month, a gold watch, chain, seals, &c., the property of R. Dick, from his person. Mr. Payne appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Charnock defended the prisoner. From the evidence adduced, it appeared that the prosecutor had been to see a relative in Holborn ' with whom he remained to a late hou r , and having drunk pottle deep of atrong Scotch ale, when he got into the street his head reeled round, and he became unconscious, and upon getting home he missed his watch, which was brought to him next morning by a policeman, who had taken it from the prisoner. The chain, seals, &c., were at the station-house. The prosecutor said he was so stupid that he could not state what occurred, but of this he was confident, that he did not see the prisoner that night. The COMMON SERGEANT—If that is the case it is impossible to convict the prisoner. The prisoner was accordingly acquitted. The COMMON SERGEANT told her to be cautious for the future, because if she was placed at the bar again she would be recollected. The prisoner declared that the prosecutor gave her the watch to take care of because he was tipsy, and that, having it in her possession, she did not make away with it as she might have done. COMMUTATION OF PUNISILMENT.--,TaMeS Andrews, who was convicted on Friday last of a robbery upon the person of a gentleman named Harris, and sen tenced to fifteen years' transportation, was his morn ing placed again at the bar, in order that that sen tence might be commuted to ten years. The COMMON SERGEANT said that it had been in timated to the Court that he had fallen into error at a later period than was at first believed. He would, therefore rev o k e th e fi rs t sentence, an d t h e j u d gmen t of the Court now was, that he be transported ten, in stead of fifteen, years. HORSE-STEALING. —Joseph Mey ers and J. Edwards, were indicted f o r s t ea li ng a mare and cart, value 10/ T .,th epp o e o r nt tyvioofed Edwards,ChariesFran and found The Jury found Meyers Not Guilty. The COMMON SERGEANT sentenced Edwards to ten years' transportation. ROBBING FURNISHED LODGINGS.— William Watson and Mary Harrill were convicted of robbing their ready-furnished lodgings, and sentenced to one year's imprisonment and hard labour. BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE, AND ROB BERY.—Robert Shore, aged 40, was indicted for steal ing a bedstead and several other articles of furniture, the property of Elizabeth Robinson. There was also another indictment, charging the prisoner with stealing other articles of considerable value, the pro perty of the same prosecutrix.! Mr. Horry defended the prisoner. Elizabeth Robinson, the prosecutrix, stated that she had known the prisoner a considerable time ; he was well known to her family, and used to visit her in the character of a suitor. At that time she was possessed of the articles in question, which were taken away by the prisoner without her consent. Cross-examined by Mr. HORRY—The prisoner was on very intimate terms with her. He had been her suitor, and promised her marriage; he had even put up the banns. He afterwards married witness's sister. Witness never gave the prisoner any authority, di rectly or indirectly, to take the property. The arti cles were her own, and purchased with her money. Mr. HORRY addressed the Jury at some length on behalf of the prisoner. He should call a witness who would give a contradiction to the testimony of the prosecutrix. It was quite clear that:there was some thing in the background which the wife of the priso ner could perhaps disclose, but she was not allowed by law to give evidence. The Learned Gentleman stated it was his belief that the prosecutrix gave the prisoner a dominion over the goods which were alleged to have been stolen. It was orobable that the disap pointment she felt at the prise trier wedding her sister and discarding her, was the rmson for the present pro secution. Samuel Field, who lived in 13 runswick-street, knew the prosecutrix and prisoner w( .11. They used to visit at his house. He put up the banns. The prisoner afterwards married the sister of the prosecutrix. He had heard her give him a corn trol over the articles named in the indictment, but this was before he left her to marry her sister. The prosecutrix, on being recar i led, stated that she might have given him autbor deal with some of the. things, but not with th e tal e , .11ad she known that he was flout to marry her s i ster she should not h ave to. given him any control. The Comm SERGE ANT, in summing up, dwelt upon the double perfidy of the prisoner. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty, and The COURT sentenced him to seven years' transpor tation. • SIDtGULAR CASR.—Bonnier Kairns, a young, good looking, and respectably-dressed foteigner, described in the calendar as a' labourer, but by himself as a Baron, was indicted for stealing two diamond rings and a pearl pin, the property of Mrs. Matilda John son in her dwelling-house. ifr. Adolphus appeared for the prosecutor, and Mr. Doane defended the 'prisoner. ' - Mr. Abor.rnus, after addressing the jury for the prosecution, called Mrs. Matilda Johnson, who stated that she lived at No. 2, Palace-place, \ Great Scotland-yard, and was a widow. She let out part of her house in: lodgings. When the prisoner came to look at some, of them, he said he was intimate with Lord Forrester. He gave a foreign name, and called himself the Baron Kaims. Witness told him the rent of the apartments would be 201. a month. Cross-examined by Mr. DOANE—Never met the prisoner at any place before he came to her house. Witness had no boy in her house, and her eldest son was 20 years of age. By Mr. ADOLPHUS—Asked the prisoner for his card, but he said he had not got one, but would leave it on the following day. He called again then' and showed her a bill of exchange for 601. . By Mr. DOANE—Witness had gone by other names. One was a theatrical one, but she did not subsist by going to theatres. Witness would declare that she did not meet the prisoner before he came to her house. Witness did not open the door to him when he came. Had a conversation with him about theatres, but did not tell him that she acted in a chorus at the Italian Opera. Had been there in pieces, and wore a silk gown on some occasions. Mr. DOANE—Have you not been in the habit of riding with a gentleman in Hyde-park ? Witness — I have, but I do not ride out very often. I ride when my. taste leads me that way.—(A laugh.) I rode there, perhaps, four times last summer ; certainly not ten times. Mr. DOANE—Did you always ride with the same gentleman ? Witness—Yes. The prisoner did not take tea with me when he called, or porter. Witness might have told the prisoner that a nobleman visited her, but she did not tell him his name. Witness has some blue curtains, but she never told the prisoner how she got them. They were given to her by a no bleman, and to him she looked for her character. The prisoner called one evening after the first inter view, but witness did not tell - her servant to say she was from home. Witness did not say she did not wish to see him, as an elderly gentleman was coming to visit her. An elderly gentleman did visit her, but she did not recollect his coming when the prisoner was there. Mr. DOANE—Are you quite sure of that ? Wit ness—You ask such strange questions. The prisoner seems to know a great many things about me. — (A laugh.) Witness never told the prisoner that she would go to Covent-garden with him, and never engaged to meet him in St. James's Park. Mr. DOANE—NOW, madam, you have stated your self to be a widow, now upon your oath are you not married ? Witness—l could answer if I pleased. Mr. Domqz—There is no harm in doing that. Witness—There may exist many reasons why I should not wish it to be known lam married. Sup posing it to be so? Mr. DOANE—Then you decline answering ? Wit ness—No, I have that document in Court that would satisfy your curiosity if I chose to produce it. Mr. DOANE—With respect to the rings, did you not sell them to the prisoner ? Witness—Decidedly not. No sum was named. I gave, or I should say entrusted, the& to him for the purpose of showing them to Lord Forrester. • Mr. ADOLPHUS did not know what all this was to tend to. The witness, in answer to a question from the Learned Gentleman, stated that her late husband and his father before him, had lived in great respectability in Pall-mall. She had never given the prisoner the rings for any other purpose but that she had stated. She would solemnly swear that there was never any love affair or toying between her and the prisoner. Stephen Thornton, a police-sergeant, who appre hended the prisoner, produced a duplicate he found upon him, which related to part of the stolen pro perty. He found a quantity of duplicates relating to pins and other jewellery in the prisoner's possession. Mr. Attenborough, a pawnbroker, produced two rings, which were identified by the prosecutrix as her property. They were not pledged by the prisoner. Mr. DOANE addressed the Jury for the defence, after which the prisoner addressed the Court in tole rably good English, for nearly half an hour, his ob ject being to show there had been an intimacy between them, and that there had been a regular bargain and sale of the property. Mr. Commissioner BULLOCK summed up, and The Jury, after a short consultation, found the prisoner Guilty. The Court then sentenced the self-named Baron to the degrading punishment of seven years transportation. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (YESTERDAY.) BO W-STREET. John Dunn, and Ellen Dunn, his wife, and Ellen Dunn, their daughter, were charged on suspicion of, stealing 40 dozen of wine, the property of Mr. Samuel Anderson, of No. 10, Symond's-inn. It appeared that about three weeks ago the younger prisoner was seen in the cellar where the wine was kept, and on Mr. Anderson returning to town yesterday, he found that the cellar had been broken open and the wine gone. The prisoners' lodgings were searched, but nothing was found. The male prisoner had a key of the [chambers. Mr. TwYFoRD said he would remand the prisoner, in order that search might be made for the wine. TILE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 2, 1842. Police constable Hughes, A division, said he went according to instructions to No. 250, Piccadilly, on Saturday, afternoon, and asked if Captain Douglas was there. He was shown to the back of the shop, and the defendant came forward and answered to the name of Douglas. Witness told him he had authority to apprehend him as a deserter from the East India Company's service.- Defendant replied it was not a matterof desertion ; as he was on leave of absence from his regiment. Witness then took him into custody. I Mr. Chambers contended that the identity was not sufficiently established. Mr. Clarkson maintained that the identity was be yond question, and if the Magistrate would consent to a remand for a few days. he should be prepared with a more complete chain of evidence than the short time since the defendan6 capture had allowed to be collected. Mr. Chambers remarked that it would be dangerous to act upon such incomplete legal evidence as that be fore the Bench. If this was allowed, then it was pos sible to use the power for political objects. Mr. HARDWICK remarked that his duty appeared to be that of a Grand Juror. He was not to try the merits of the charge, but only to ascertain if there was sufficient legal evidence to justify him in committing the accused for trial. Mr. Clarkson said this was precisely his view of the case. Some furtherargument between the respective counsel took place, and it was ultimately arranged that thedefendant should be remanded till Friday next, to procure the attendance of the captain of the Reliance, and other parts of the evidence, sufficiently to place the defendant's identity beyond legal doubt. Mr. Fitzpatrick accordingly took down the evidence of the policeman and the clerk of the Eastlndia House, and further proceedings were postponed till Friday next. It was stated that ihe,defendant, in addition to his commission, held the important civil appointment of Resident at Tanjore. CLEIiKE.NWELL. Thomas Wells was charged with deceiving and at tempting to deceive her Majesty's subjects. it appeared that yesterday evening, between four and five o'clock, the prisoner threw himself on the side of Tottenham-court• road, and pretended to be labouring under convulsions of the most dreadful de scription. He ground his teeth until the blood issued from his gums, and made all sorts of wry faces. Hun dreds of people collected round him, and countless halfpence were poured in upon him. Police constable 121 E remarked that, notwith standing the violence of the fit, he managed to pick up the halfpence regularly. He watched him narrowly for a few minutes, and then discovered it was all sham. Police-constable Restaud said that was an old trick of the prisoner's. He was generally accompanied by another person who held up his head during the fit, and made loud lamentations. The mention of a sur geon was quite a restorative to the prisoner, who had been several times imprisoned for tricks of a similar character. Mr. GREHNWOOD said it was a most gross and shameful imposture. lie would send him for six weeks to the House of Correction, and hard labour. MARYLEBONE.' Caroline Murphy and Hannah Mahoney, were charged by Jones, an officer of the Mendicity Society, with begging. Complainant saw the two prisoners following seve ral ladies and gentlemen in Langham-place, and when he went up to them, they could make no excuse for, their conduct. He, therefore, t6ok them into custod Horsford, another of the Society's officers, show Mr. Rawlinson a list, by which it appeared, that h • had had the former prisoner up himself 14 times, and that each time, she had been committed a Month. The other woman was not known. Mr. RAWLINSON sent the former to the House of Correction for three months, the other was diSmissed with an admonition. Edward Bourke, a gentlemanly personage, residing in HaymdrelePs a p rk e - i s ie q r 7e c , ab w - as dri c v h e a r rg l,s3, wit t h be d in th g a d t r w u h n il k e , and refusing to pay cab hire. in the rank in Oxford -street a brother cab s a t n r d ee h t e to H drove y d e d r e f a e r n k d - a s n q t u a f r r e o , m a n t d h e w h s e t a n n t d h e i n g Of m rd a a drove up, state x 0 - got out demanded his fare 15.6 d., which he (defendant) refused to pay, and witness, gave him into custody. The gentleman, in defence, said that he had paid the first cabman 3s. 6d., for which he was to have been driven the whole way. He was sorry, however, for the trouble he had given, as had he not been tipsy he should not have refused. Mr. RAWLINSON advised him to settle with the cab man, and the gentleman expressing his willingness to do so, the case was discharged. MARLBOROUGH -STREET. A well-dressed gentleman, accompanied by a num ber of friends, and attended professionally by Mr. Chambers and Mr. Hobler, was brought before Mr. Hardwick, charged with being a deserter from the service of the Hon. East India Company. Acting under the advice of his counsel, the accused refused to give his name when requested to do so by the chief clerk, Mr. Fitzpatrick. Mr. Clarkson, who attended on behalf of the East India Company, acquainted Mr. Hardwick that he should produce evidence to prove that the gentleman at the bar was Captain Archibald Douglas, of the 49th Native Infantry ; that he had received leave of absence from Tanjore to go to the Neilgherry hills, and that availing himself of this circumstance , he had made his way to England in the Reliance merchant man, under the assumed name of Jackson. Having satisfactorily •established the identity of Captain Douglas, it would be his duty to ask for his corn• mittal as a deserter from the Hon. East India Com pany's Service. Mx. Clarkson called a clerk in the India House, who proved that a, sum of I,QOO/. East India Stock was transferred by Captain Archibald Douglas about a fortnight ago. "The transfer-book was signed Archi bald Douglas, and witness believed that the accused was the party who had transferred the stock. CROYDON.. Mr. Henry Garrard, a pawnbroker, carrying on business at Croydon, attended before Messrs. Lucas and Barclay, the presiding Magistrates, to answer an information laid under the Pawnbrokers' Act, charg ing him with having neglected to mark upon a dupli cate the amount of the profit taken by him upon a pledge, at the time it was redeemed. Mr. R. Russell attended on behalf of the defendant. Elizabeth Cable was called to prove that she had pledged some silver spoons at the defendant's shop, but Mr. Russell ob;ected to the competency of the party to give evidence, inasmuch as she was entitled to a share of any penalty the Magistrates might in flict, and was, therefore, an interested witness. The MAGISTRATES said that the evidence of an . in terested party was not necessarily inadmissible, al though the rule generally was to exclude such evi dence. It would, however, in many cases, be impos sible to prove them if such testimony were to be ex cluded invariably. If the charge in the present instance could be substantiated by other testimony, they would exclude the evidence of the complainant. Ann Mercer was then examined, and she deposed that on the 15th of October she went to the defend ant's shop to redeem some-articles that had been ori ginally pledged for 55., and she paid the defendant 9s. 9d. for principal and interest. There were two pledgings originally, of different articles. Cross-examined--She handed the duplicates to the defendant, and he gave her the articles. She saw him write something on the back of one of the duplicates, and the one now produced she believed to be the same, but could not tell what the marks that were upon it were intended to mean. John Collier, Inspector of Police, deposed that he produced the duplicates that had been referred to, and that they were brought to the Court by the defendant himself; on a former occasion. Mr. Russell—This being the case in support of", the information, contended that the evidence did not support the information, inasmuch as there was no distinct proof that the article had been pledged, or what sum it had been pledged for, or that any profit had been received. The BENCH said that there was evidence that the amount on the duplicates was 55., and that 9s. 91 was paid ; the Bench must, therefore, infer that profit had been received. Mr. Russell said that under .a penal statute like that upon which the present information was framed, the Bench ought not to infer anything to the preju dice ora defendant, but should take care that the case was clearly made out by direct evidence. Their defence was that no profit had been received, and therefore they could not make any entry upon the duplicate. Mr. Lucas said that if the defendant set up as ,a defence that he did not, in point of fact, take any pro fit, he ought to support it by evidence. Mr. Russell said the defendant was not required to prove anything. The Magistrates, after a short deliberation, decided that the offence had been .proved, and they adjudged the defendant to pay a fine . of 40s. Mr. Russell immediately gave notice of appeal, and entered into the necessary sureties to try the question, which is one of a novel character, at the next Quarter Sessions. F ULLER AND ROBERT llALL.—Fuller was slow in coming t o a conclusion, chiefly because judgment, rather than imagination or passion, predominated ; nor, till he had frequently revised his thoughts, did he sufficiently feel his competency to give an opinion. The author was present at a vehement discussion be t„.een him and Robert Hall. The latter, with his characteristic acuteness a nd vo lubilit y , fairl y per not a little displeased his antagonist. loes were slowly conceived, as well a 4 Fuller'sp e ecl slowly uttered, and stood little chance before the never-ceasing torrent of powerful reasoning, or con fusing eloquence, rapid words, and pungent satire, of his friend. He was at length compelled, in his own emphatic manner, to exclaim, " Well, brother Hall, I cannot answer you off-hand ; but put it down on paper, and I will meet you."—Cox. CULTIVATION OF THE COCOA-NUT.—Tile black labourers in the West Indies cultivate the cocoa-nut tree to a considerable extent. On many estates in Jamaica the negro is enabled to derive from cocoa-trees alone, cultivated in a small garden, an annual income of from 201. to 301. sterling. These cocoa-nut gardens afford the greatest advantage when near a Own. Half a dozen of the trees will produce fruit to the value of 1/. to 3/. sterling per annum. From the general formation of society upon the estates, there are, for the most part, about one hundred householders on each property, and each of these usually varies in his possessions from two to a dozen or more cocoa nut trees, and claims them by inheritance. Upon the birth of each child, in many instances, a fresh tree is planted, and it grows for a hundred years. Some of these gardens produce a larger sum to the labourer than the produce of his labour on the estate, or, in frequent cases, than his provision grounds. There are some districts, however, where the cocoa-nuts do not thrive. This is chiefly among the mountains in the interior, where the climate is moist, and the soil of a clayey and unkindly description.—Extracted from the Minutes of Evidence before the Select Committee on West India Colonies, Quaries 6,744-6,758. MEXICAN DOGS .---41 r. tendall, in the account of his Santa Fe expedition, speaks of some remarkable dogs used by Mexicans to guard their sheep. He says—" There are very few men along with this im mense herd of sheep ; but in their stead was a large number of noble dogs, who appeared to be peculiarly ifted with the faculty of keeping them together. There was no running about, no barking nor biting in their system of tactics ; but on the contrary, they walked gently up to any sheep that happened to stray from the fold, took it carefully by the ear, and led it back to the flock. Not the least fear did the sheep manifest at the approach Of these dogs ; and there was no necessity for it. They appeared to me to be a cross of the Newfoundland and St. Bernard species, of a very large size, and with frank open countenances, and, from what I could learn, extremely sagallious." DISTRESSING O C CURRENCE ON THE RIVER. —A few days since the Ruby Gravesend steamer, Captain Gann, was on her passage, down the river, when a black man, a sailor belonging to a sloop astern of the Ruby, fell overboard off Woolwich. Captain Gann immediately a nd two youn g watermen belonging to his crew got gave orders for h is vessel to be sto pp ed, into the boat, which being lowered rather too hastily heeled over, and the two watermen were precipitated into the water. They both, however, gallantly swam to the rescue of the black sailor, and soon put him on board the sloop's boat, and proceeded to swim back to their own, which by this time had righted. One reached her in safety, and - the other had nearly done so, when exhau s t e d by his efforts th e p oor fellow sunk, and never rose again, to the unspeakable regret of the crew and passengers on board the Ruby. The de ceased was a single man, the chief support of an aged mother, and was the nephew of Captain Yonwin, master of the Gem steamer, one of the oldest and most respected Captains on the river. A FLOATING COMPOSING42OO3.I.—The speech of Mr. Webster, in FaneUil - ha ll, on Frida y , was re ported for the New York Tribune by Mr. Raymond, assistant-editor of the New York Tribune. That gentleman wrote out the speech verbatim from his notes on board the steamer Rhod e Island, on her pas sage :fromStonnington to N ew York, on the ni g ht succeeding its delivery in Boston, and, arrangements having been made for the purpose, the speech was put in type on board the boat. On reaching New York the "form" containing the matter was immediately taken to the office of the' Tribune, and in a few minutes copies of an Extra Tr ibune, containin g the speech, were f o r s ale in any quantity —whol esale and retail—as purchasers offered. It was nearly an hour before any other paper published the speech complete, and Mr. Raymond thus succeeded in distancing all competitors.—Boston Atlas The General Steam Navigation Company's vessel the John Bull, from Hamburg, arrived offthe Custom. house, at nine o'clock yesterday with the Hamburgh mail.

The animal struck him with his horns in several places about the thighs awl legs. One of his hands was also much bruised. After lraggitig him some distance, the brute let go his boll, and thus Mr. M4lkenzie was fortunately re leased. He then made the best of his way home, and has since been mostly confined to his bed.—Perthshire Advertiser. THE WINE TRADE The following correspondence of the leading mem bers of the Portuguese wine-trade with the Foreign office bears immediate reference to the state 'of negotia tions with Portugal : "20, St. Swithin's-lane, London,. Oct. 15, 1842. "MY LORD,—We the undersigned British mer chants, having establishments at Oporto and Lisbon, engaged in the commerce in Portuguese wines, re spectfully beg leave to represent to your Lordship the great and serious injuries under which we have been for a long time labouring—injuries which are daily increasing—in consequence of the entire stagnation of the trade in wines, owing to the expected reduction of duties. " That which thus affects us affects the whole of the wine-merchants of the United Kingdom in an equal, or perhaps a greater, degree. "We feel satisfied that her Majesty's Government must be anxious to do all in their power to avert these evils, and to relieve the wine trade from its pre sent most embarrassing situation ; and we venture to point out to your Lordship, that had it not been for the declaration that the usual drawback on duty paid stock in dealers' hands would not be allowed, the pay ment of duties on wine would have gone on as unin terruptedly as ever (as in 1834, prior to the reduction of 1835), and that the impetus given to the wine trade, whenever the duty shall be reduced, would, if the return were granted, be such as rapidly to reim burse the Treasury the amount so returned. " Whatever may be the ultimate decision of her Majesty's Government on that point however, we beg most earnestly to press upon your-Lordship the adop tion of every measure which can tend to bring this long -pending negotiation with Portugal to a speedy issue.—We have the honour to be very respectfully, my Lord, your Lordship's most obedient and very humble servants, [Here follow the signatures.] " To the Right Hon. the Earl of Aberdeen." ANSWER TO THE PETITION. " Foreign-office, Oct. 25. " GENTLEMEN—I am directed by the Earl of Aber deen to acknowledge the receipt of the letter which you and several of the principal merchants engaged in the commerce in Portuguese wine have addfessed to his Lordship, representing the stagnation which at present prevails in that commerce, in consequence of the new duties not being settled, and calling upon his Lordship to adopt every measure for the speedy settlement of those duties ; and I am to state to you, in reply, that the amount of those dUties is included in the various points which are now in negotiation between Great Britain and Portugal, and that every exertion is making to bring the negotiations to a speedy conclusion. —I am, Gentlemen, your most obedient humble servant, H. M. ADDINGTON. " To Messrs. Sandeman, Forsters, and Co., and others." THE MARKETS.--(YESTERDAY.) COLONIAL.
