This Association held its weekly meeting on Wednesday, at Thornton's Coffee-house. Mr. 1 human was called to the chair. A Secretary and Treasurer were elected, and a committee, consisting of four electors and five non-electors, chosen by th.llot. A letter was read by the Secretary, Mr. Westerton, which had been sent to him by a person, whose signature was " An Honest Elector of Nottingham," and who declared him self to be a supporter of " honest John Walter," in answer to the address of the Association to the electors of that town. If, to afford amusement, was the object of the writer, he was emi nently successful, for the reading of the letter excited repeated bursts of laughter. In the course of the evening, the follow ing resolutions were passed :- 1 - hat the Council, at the ame time, record their warmest thanks to that portion of the public press which has honestly and temperately advocated the political and social rights of the heople, and trust that such pape rs an d p er i o di ca l s w ill a l ways ave the preference in their libraries, reading-rooms, coffee houses, and places of public resort.

THE CHRISTINO-CARLIST CON- SPIRACY. The belief has been long current in the higher political cir cles of a new Christino-Carlist conspiracy against Espartero, as Regent of Spain, but no direct proofs of it have as yet been obtained. Some light is new thrown on this subject by an im portant document which has been communicated to us, being a note written by the ex-Queen, Maria Christina, residing at pre sent in Paris, to her brother-in-law, Don Carlos, now a state prisoner in Bourges. We subjoin the original letter as well as a translation. 4' A swg ALTESSZ ROYALE D.C., INFANT DTSPAGNE, &c.

This dt.cuntent will, no doubt, call forth the attention of our Government, who are entitled to ask for some explanatiou from that of France, provided they believe it to be genuine. We are not without expectation of some further information on _this matter.—Morning Paper. • GLOBE.—The accounts received with in the last few days from Ireland and Scotland are painfully confirmatory of the fact, that in all the three divisions of the United Kingdom the extreme of distress is alarmingly prevalent. The people have been very justly complimented by certain Members of the Go vernment on the patience they have shown under their accumulated sufferings ; but we regret to observe that in Ireland force has been resorted to, and that a boat laden with meal has been attacked by the populace. As a temporary measure of relief, the issuing of the Queen's letter may have a good effect. But private benevolence will be found very inadequate to meet the evil which afflicts so large a portion of the community. In all directionsemplovment appears to be diminishing, while the prices of provisions are everywhere on the rise ; and though the increased dearness of food is ob viously a great aggravation of the existing distress, we are told by Conservative writers that the people do not dc4ire to have food at a cheap rate, but only re quire the money to purchase it. This might be true, if there were any hope that the measures of the present Government would make wages good, and employ ment plentiful. But, as far as the acts of the Mi nistry are likely to affect either one or the other, it is almost certain that the former will be lowered, and the latter curtailed, instead of receiving a fa vourable impetus. The reductions of Sir Robert Peel are almost all in the wrong direction—faci litating the importation of many articles which have hitherto afforded employment to the people ; and the Premier has been justly com plained of for his determination to put foreign in competition with English goods, while he refuses to allow to the manufacturers of the latter the advantage of cheap provisions, with which the introduction of continental rivalry ought in fairness to be accompanied. We are told that it is not a reduction in the price of food that is wanted, but an increase in the amount of employment. But this is false ; for full employment does not produce sufficient sustenance, and it never will, until the cost of living in this country is assimi lated to that of the Continent. STANDARD.—Sir Robert Inglis last night pre sented a petition from certain electors of Nottingham, complaining of their indefinite disfranchisement by the suspension of the writ of election moved for upon Sir George Larpent's retirement, the petitioners denying that they knew anything of a corrupt compromise. This petition places the question of Mr. Roebuck's Committee in a somewhat new light. Up to the present time a writ has never been sus pended except upon a Report of an Election Com mittee, framed after a judicial inquiry upon sworn evidence. In the case of Nottingham and the other towns referred to Mr. Roebuck's Committee there has been no inauiry, and there can be no inquiry, upon sworn evidence : the writs are suspended upon a bare suggestion of a Member of the House that certain compromises have been made, and may be brought to light by a proper investigation. Now, though there may be admitted a strong presumption that Mr. Roebuck will prove the facts that he has suggested, there remains the question whether the suspension of the writs is at all connected with his proving of the several cases. It does not, at least at present, appear that any such con nexion exists. Supposing, for argument's sake, the cor rupt compromises proveable, the compromise of the principals does not necessarily imply any corruption in the constituents. One can easily conceive a case in which the constituents may be the most injured party. There occurs to us an instance in point, which was much spoken ofabout ten years ago. An Irish county, Meath, was canvassed by two candidates--one a very popular agitator, now no more, and the other a Whig gobleman. The agitator's success was believed to be certain, but on the eve of the election he disappeared, and his rival was returned without opposition. It was said that the successful nobleman had bought off his competitor by a large sum of money. The story was possibly, nay, for the honour of the deceased, we will say pro bably false ; but that the story was told proves the possibility of such an arrangement, which is, indeed, otherwise self evident. The presumption plainly is, that in a very numerous constituency such as that of Nottingham, the electors cannot . be parties to a cor rupt compromise. Why then ought they to suffer by it even the affront of a temporary suspension of the writ ? But, again, we are to inquire how can the suspension of the writ assist Mr. Roebuck's purpose of investigation ? Sir John Hobhouse is actually at this moment sitting for Nottingham upon the votes of these same electors, from whom the suspension of the writ withholds the opportunity of returning a second Member. EARTHQUAKE IN GREECE.--It is stated in a letter from Athens that the earthquake in Greece, which took place in April last, and of which we gave an account some time back, was felt more severely at Athens itse'f than we were at first led to suppose. Several houses were thrown down, and the walls of the fort were much injured. The sea advanced five metres on the shore, ar.d in retiring left the vessels near the land completely dry. The facade of the Hotel-de-Ville, towards the square, is about to be enriched with twelve new statues. A fire occurred at Dantzic on the 27th ult., which destroyed several houses and the new synagogue. The tire first appeared in a stable, and it is supposed that a drunken carman was the cause of it. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, .Tune 8. IN RE JOHN LAIIONT. This insolvent, the brewer, traded under the firm of La mont, Stewart, and Co. Hei was made a bankrupt a short time back, and had passed his last examination, but had not as yet obtained his certificate. The application to this Court was to discharge the insolvent on sureties until his hearing, appointed for the 15th of July. The schedule exhibited debts exceeding 1C0,0001., which were reduced, after omitting those without consideration, and others more than once entered, to 97,0001., which sum includes several mortgages on property. There is property mentioned on the schedule to upwards of 40,0001., and the debts owing to the firm amounted to nearly 25,000/. The insolvency is as cribed to the failure of the business in which the whole of Mr. Lamont's private fortune was embarked. The COURT accepted bail in the sum of 2,0001., and the discharge was ordered. The CsuEF CostuisstoNEa observed that it was frequently stated that this Court discharged persons from large amounts of debts, but it was not likewise mentioned that in many cases, like the present, the whole of the property was under the jurisdiction of the Court of Bankruptcy. JUNE 9. Iv RE CHARLES JAMES MATHEWS. The insolvent in this case was the well-known lessee and manager of Covent-garden. After baying been sworn and taken his stand in the box al- lotted to insolvents under examination, the Registrar of the Court inquired if there were any opposition to the insolvent's discharge,. when a long time intervened without any person an swering. At length a person from the body of the Court, in a stentorian voice, with a strong Scotch twang, shouted out " I, Alexander Logie, oppose Charles Mathews' discharge." The individual who made this announcement having entered the witness-box presented such an outre appearance as to excite a roar of laughter throughout the Court. The Learned CHIEF COMMISSIONER having inquired if there weri further opposition ? Mr. La was, the insolvent's solicitor, said that this was the only creditor who opposed out of 225 who appeared in the sehedule. The Minister of Public Instruction having col looted and laid before the Royal Council of Public Instruction testimonial of the skilful, humane, and zralous care and atten tion paid by the students and dressers at several of the hos pitals, and by other young medical men, to the sufferers from the railroad disaster on the Bth ult., the Minister decided that all the charges for inscriptions, examinations, and diplomas which they have still to pay, in order to obtain their degree of doctori should be remitted. Some of them having already ac quired a right to this remittance, from being laureates of the Faculty, or sons of professors, the Minister, in the name of the University of France, awarded to them several valuable works on medicine, surgery, and nasural history, as tokens of its satis faction. The op? osing creditor (who appeared in person) then, by the direction of the Court, proceeded to examine Mr. Mathews, after having stated that he was a theatrical ornament-maker in the New Cut, Lambeth, and that the insolvent was indebted to him in, the sum of 481. 18s. 3id., out of which 5/. was paid through 'his attorney. Mr. Commissioner REYNOLDS—For what was the debt contracted ? Logie--For spangles, lace, tinsel, and all kinds of theatrical decorations. Mr. Commissioner IlEyNotns—Does counsel appear for Mr. Mathews ? Mr. Lucas—Yes ; we have retained Messrs. Cook, Woodroffe, and In reply to the Learned Counsel, the opposing creditor said, with much vehemence and eccentricity of manner, that he should keel, Mr. Mathews for a fortnight under examination. Logic (addrrssing the insolvent)—What has become of Madame Vestris's jewels ? Insolvent (handing the key of a small box into Court)—They were sold in the year 1838. Mr. Commissioner REYNOLDS—AII ? Insolvent—Yes, all. Logie—Do you know a persrn called Mrs. Cassidy ? In solvent—Yes. f The manner and expressiens of the opposing creditor at this part of the proceedings was such as to call forth a severe reprim an d f rom th e Court.] I don't know where she is at present. About two months ago she was discharged from the theatre in, consequence of not paying some bills the amount of which she was given. Logic—Did she ever pawn any things for Madame Vestris ? Insolvent—C ertainly not for Mrs. Mathews, but she has pawned artie :les belonging to her without her knowledge or permission. The arguments of the Learned Counsel on both sides as to these points being concluded, His Hot4outt said that in this case the petitioners were the mortgagees of the estate of Varmintll Gardens for a debt of 21,0001. The mortgagees two years ago appl.od to the Court for a sale of the premises, and leave to prove for the deficiency, which being granted, the estate was sold and purchased by one of the parties who obtained the order, and there was now realised 20,0001., which is appropriated to the payment of the debt of 21,000/., so that in all reason arid conscience 1.0001. only was due. But they said, " No, we won't touch that; we will go in and prove before the Commissioner for 21,0001.," al leging that to be the amount of their debt, which was con trary to the fact. They were, however, admitted, but the at tention of the Commissioner being called to the circumstances, and also to the order of the Court, that they should prove only fur the deficiency, he conceived that it was his duty to cor rect the order, and reduce the original amount of the peti tioner's proof to the deficiency only, and they now came there, two years after the estate had been sold in satisfaction of their own debt, and desire the Court to allow them to swear that their debt is 21,0001., and that what the Commissioner did on reconsideration was erroneous ; but the Court de clared that what the Commissioner did first was erroneous ; and that his second order was correct ; and considering that there is no ground for this application, the petition would be dismissed with costs.

Eliza Gosling, who, daring the last four years, has been repeatedly brought before this Court. and has passed at least ten months out of twelve in gaol, was again brought up for drunken and disorderly conduct. So violent is her conduct generally, that of late the precaution of handcuffing her before she is placed at the bar is invariably adopted. Police-constable, No. 145 of the C division, stated that about half-past one yesterday morning, as he was proceeding on duty along New Bond-street, he found the prisoner sitting on the step of a door, completely naked; her clothes, which she had taken cff lying beside her, and amusing herself by singing or rather shrieking out at the top of her voice, " Had I a heart. for falsehood framed," &c. Witness desired her to desist, and put her clothes on, but she refused, and vociferated a torrent of abuse, abounding with the most grossly obscene expressions at him, and he was ultimately obliged to send for the police stretcher, and with the assistance of several other constables conveyed her to the station-house. Eliza—Do you think I was such a fool as to walk when such skulking lazy fellows as you are prowling about all night? No ; I'd see you jolly well Mr. HA RDWICK--Eliza, I must send you for another month. Eliza—Much obliged to you I am for that kindness. You've done the like of this several times before, but I'll pay you out some day. , I wculd not even regret two months if your worshipful self was obliged to sit there till I return. She was then, after a violent struggle removed to the lock up cell. Thomas Ginnery, a very decent-looking youth, between 15 and 16 years of age, was eharged with picking pockets. Mr. David Urquhart, of No. 2, Hertford -street, May-fair, stated that yesterday afternoon, between two and three o'clock, as he was walking up St. James's-street . , he felt a tug at his coat pocket, and instantly turning round, caught the prisoner in the act of taking his hand out of it. 'the prisoner directly ran across the street, and spoke to a man standing there, who passed hurriedly on. In the meantime he (the prosecutor) had missed his purse, which contained about 41. in gold and silver. He ran after and overtook the prisoner, whe begged to be let go, and said," to save trouble," he would get the purse hack. The prosecutor, however detained him until he met with a policeman. On his being searched the• purse was not found in his lossession. A gentleman, who was passing by stated that he saw the prisoner give the purse to the man he run over to, who directly made off. A police constable stated that the prisoner was known as the associate of thieves. He was committed for three months to hard labour. Margaret Dwyer, alias Callaghan, a healthy-looking respectably-dressed young woman, with an infant. at her breast, was brought up for further examination, charged with uttering counterfeit money. Mr. George Bristow, the landlord of the King's Head, public-house in Crown-street, Soho, stated that about twelve o'clock on the night of the 31st of May last, the prisoner came to his bar with the child in her arms, and called for a glass of gin, and tendered in payment for it a shilling, which he being very busy at the instant, his house being about to be cleared, changed without looking at it, and the prisoner went away. but immediately afterwards he discovered it to be a bad one ; and having put a private mark on it, kept it apart from other moneys. On the 2d inst., the prisoner earns again and tendered another shilling which he on the instant discovered to be a counterfeit one, and calling in the police, gave the prisoner into custody. She was searched, but no other bad money was fouud about her, Mr. Powell, the solicitor to the Mint, identified the prisoner as a yr ell.knovvn smasher. She was committed to take her trial at the ensuing sittings of the Central Criminal Court. Mr. Bristow stated that since the prisoner's apprehension he had had no less than 13 counterfeit shillings offered at his bar. The town of Zurich, says the He/vt'tie, has been thrown into confusion by the death of a young student, named Kirchmeier, who was killed by one of the night patrol of the place. Five students having spent the evening together, one of them, named Steub, got intoxicated. When the time of separation arrived, two of them proceeded to see him hom e , He was noi s y, an d attracte d t h e attent i on o f the night patrol, who took him into custody. The other two tried to rescue him, and some blows were exchanged. Staub and another succeeded in gettinff off, and were pursued by all the patrol, except one, who remained with the other student in his cus tody. Some squabble ensued between them, and on the guard's hat being knocked off by a blow of the student's cane, he drew his sword, and pierced him in the groin, killing him almot instantaneously. The Academic Senate, after a long &liberation. has sent a deputation to the Burgomaster on the and the professors of th e S c h oo l of Industry have done the same. Logie—Dc , you know Lewis Levi, the proprietor of the Vic toria Theatre ? Insolvent—Yes, lam a creditor of his for 1001. Logie—That is a lie—Lewis Levi would not lend any man twopence. Mr. Commissioner REYNOLDS-1f such language be used I shall order you to leave the Court. You are at liberty to put any questions. you think proper, but it must be done iu a proper and respectful manner to the Court. Logie shrugged his shoulders, and continued—Have you made away with any books? Insolvent—l have sold some books to Mr. Willis, of the Piazza, Covent-garden, for 801. I have no specific agreement that the books should be returned to me, but there is a tacit understanding that if at the end of four months 1 should be able to raise the sum of 801., I would get them in - preference to a stranger. They are books of no intrinsic value, but they were some which I had sele-tod myself at various times. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS TIMES.—The proclamation published in yesterday's Ga. zette about the light coinage has created a considerable sensa tion in the City. The bankers have already been weighing every sovereign singly lor two days, and to-day the shopkeepers are beginning to act on the same principle, so that no light sovereign will pass as current. Much, of course, is said of the loss which the holders will incur by suddenly having their sovereigns reduced from the nominal to the bullion value ; but the general impression is that the evil of a light coinage had reached such a pitch that it was necessary some remedy, even if a violent one, should be taken to arrest its progress. For some time past the bankers have been unable to refuse to take light coinage, lest they should offend their customers, and the consequence was, that they were encumbered with a quantity of coin which was inadmissible at the Bank of England. A simi lar difficulty occurred at the Stamp, and other revenue offices, and the complaints of individuals who, having a coin that was considered a legal tender in all transactions of business, could not pass it at Somerset House, were often repeated. By the proclamation, at least, the anomaly is put an end to according to which a coin which was currency between man and man was not currency with respect to payments to the Govern ment. Much inconvenience, of course, arises at first from the money being slowly weighed at the bankers and the public having a considerable quantity of coin forced back upon their hands, but this inconvenience will, it is expected, have its attendant good, and the vigilant which those who receive gold coin wil be found to exereise in their own defence will prove a serious check to the practice of " sweating," which has deteriorated the coin to a great extent. That there is much dissatisfaction on the subject is, of course, neces sary. in a matter which will entail a loss on so many of the holders of gold coin ; and among other complaints is one that an office has not been formally appointed to take the sovereigns at bullion value—a complaint which is founded on the belief, that the holders of light sovereigns will be driven to the bullion merchants, who would, of course, pay only s•tch a price as would allow a profit to themselves, and thus the holder would sustain a further loss, in addition to that created by the difference between the nominal and the bullion value of the coin. How ever, the fact that the Mint is ready to coin all bullion that is taken to them would seem sufficient to obviate all alarm of that sort. The perrr anent securities are slowly improving, and busi ness is still limited. Money i 3 easy in the general market, and herefore there is no scarcity in the Stock -exchange. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. Mr. Commissioner REYNOLDS—Are there any scarce edi tions amongst them of the ancient drama ? insolvent—Ne, they are modern works, collected chiefly while I was on the, Continent. PORTSMOUTH, Ju ex . —The Pique frigate, Captain Forbes, came into the harbour on Monday morning to be refitted, &c. She is last from Carlisle Bay, Barbadoee, which she left 10th Slay, leaving there the Tweed corvette, senior officer's ship, Rover, 16, and steam-vessel Flamer. The Warspite, 52, was expected there, to proceed thence to Antigua and Jamaica. The Leeward Islands were much more healthy, and the crops promised abundantly. The Admiral, Sir Charles Adam, was gone to Honduras in the Illustrious, 72. The Hydra steamer was to leave Jamaica for England about the eod of July; also the Racer, 16, both to be paid off. The brig Weazle, 10, has passed by, frora the Mediter ranean, for Chatham, to be paid off. The Lieutet-sant, Edmon stone, is promoted to be Commander. She has had a long passage, having left Malta 20th April. Letters landed at Ply mouth state that the fleet under Sir Edward Owen was to sail from Malta on the 20th Slay ; destination not known. Rear-Admiral the lion. D. P. Bouverie has struck his flag on board the Victory, 104, and gone on temporary leave. This officer's period of service as Superintendent of Portsmouth Dock-yard will shortly expire. Rear-Admiral the Hon. Josceline Percy, with his flag in the Winchester frigate, at Spithead, is waiting further orders, prior to proceeding to the Cape of Good Hope. She takes despatches for Vice-Admiral Sir Edward King. The tender-brig Nautilus, 10, Lieut. Paulson, has returned to the coast of Sussex to give protection to our fishermen. Letters from the Ringdove, 16, Commander Sir W. Daniel, state that she arrived, all well, at Bermuda on the 4th May, where she was to wait the return of the Admiral. Mr. CooKE said, those books were sold about two days before the arrest. of Mr. Mathews, and if they were not thus disposed of, they would have been swept away in execution and the creditors WO uld have been minus the SU The insolven • said the value of them (although he would not lose then% for a much larger sum) was rather below 801.. as he wished. - to have everything clear, in case the Cuurt would require Mr.. - Willis to be examined. The opposiing creditor here entered upon a rambling and in coherent •tat ement, which he concluded by saying that he should carry his case no further, as he thought he could not get jus:ice. The Report was substantially as follows :—ln obedience to a resolution of the Court of the 26th of May last, in the following words—" That one of the candidates for the office of Town Clerk having with drawn from the contest upon the alleged ground . of a decision by three out of five referees,whereby the privileges of the Court have been improperly interfered with, it be referred to a Special Committee, to inquire into and report thereon, prior to fixing the day of election to the office of Town Clerk ; we do certify that we proceeded in the reference, and requested the attendance of Alderman Thompson, Alderman Wilson, Sheriff Magnay, Mr. B. Hardwick, Deputy Brown, Mr. R. L. Jones, Mr. 11. A.

Illr. Mathews was next subjected to a short examination by the Court, in which he stated that he attributed his insolvency to losses au•ttained in the management of the Olympic Theatre during his absence in America. During that tmne it was under the management of Mr. Manche, and no man could have fulfilled his trust with more fidelity or talent ; but circum stances incident to the absence of Madame Vestris and himself led to the losses he suffered. to 35 3S sla 3.3 41 09 • 3i; YS 40 36 40 38 40 30 34 34 45 01 SO 34 38 • 3 3t. 40 :'2 34 3 40 so 34 .53 29 4(1 44 31 38 06 31 38 40 June 7 10 ...4 b 6 Scotch, Welch, and Manx 0 0 -.

Informa tion having been conveyed to the police, of their intention a strong party, under the command of Captain G unn and Head-Constable Condon, immediately proceeded to the mar ket for its protection, and the Mayor, having been sent for, a fresh lock was procured, and the gates again faste ne d , after which his Worship retired, leaving eight of the constab u l ary in the mat ket for its protection. At twelve o'clock a second attack was made, which the police repelled ; after which th e people proceeded to attack both gates at the same time, for the purpose of distracting the attention of the police. This attack also failed in consequence of the constabulary having drawn a couple of butts against the Market-street gate, which now. pletely secured it. The crowd then dispersed, but renewed their attacks last night, without effecting their object, the police having been on patrol in the neighbourhood until two Cork Examiner. Mr. LICWIS said that the messenger he had sent to Mr. Willis had returned, and it appeared that Mr. Willis had gone to Ascot. He having attended before without being served with a sut,pcena, he (Mr. Lewis) bad not taken the precaution to subFce•ua him on the present occasion. The CHIEF COMNIISSIONER said he would enlarge the bail of Mr. Mathews till Monday. Mr. LEWIS said he would send for Mr. Willis'sforoman. Josiah Robert Mitchell was then called and examined by Mr. CooKE—What are you ?—I am employed by Mr. Willis the bookseller as his foreman. Have you seen some books that were sent by Mr. M a th ews to Mr. Willis ?-1 have. Are you competent to form a judgment of the value of those books ?--I am. _ ___..... _ What kind of books were they?—They were principally foreign books ; they were a miscellaneous collection ; there were fewer dramatic works than I could have expected. They were prineipally French works. What do you value them at I—l should say about 801. I believe that is a fair price for them. If they were to be sold by auction would they bring that?- 1 don't think they would fetch that. Mr. Willis would be very happy to sell them for that. Where is Mr. Willis?-4e is at Gras4send now. - _ The CONIMISSIONER—Why they sent him to Ascot half an hour ago.—( Laughte r .) illr.'LEWlS—That was the message I received. 'dr. COOKE—You see on such a day as this, people think of nothing else but Ascot. Witness—No, Sir ; Mr. Willis is gone to Gravesend for the benefit of his health. Mr. STACEY rose to oppose the proposition. He said it was due to Mr. Pearson at once to state that that gen tleman, after the whole of the arduous inquiry, came out free from the slightest imputation, and had acted in the transactions to which the correspondence referred in the most honourable manner.—(Cheers.) But still it was necessary, before the Court could agree to adopt the Report, that the whole of the evidence, and the documen tary matter connected with the subject, should be printed; and he for one entertained the opinion that the decision of the Committee was not borne out by the evi dence.—(Expressions of disapprobation.) He therefore moved that the Report, &c., be printed. Mr. R. L. JONES was perfectly convinced that the de cision of the Committee corresponded with the evidence, and he therefore seconded the motion. The CO3IIIISSIONER (to :Mr. Mathews)—Do you know of any property to which you have any right, either yourself or by your wife, that you are'not possessed of? Insolvent—Cer tainly not, Sir. Mr. COOK E --It may be satisfactory to state that those funds spoken of on a former occasion, when mention was made of the disposition of the property, were disposed of in a manner highly creditable to Mrs. Matthews. In 1837 difficulties arose, and a fiat in bankruptcy was issued against her, but it was not persisted in, she having made a disposition of all the pro perty she possessed in the world, upon trust, and the sum of five shillings in the pound was given to the various creditors. To Mr. Valentine these jewels were assigned over, for the purpose of raising money to meet the composition. That gentleman sold them the following year, for the purpose of reimbursing himself for the money he had advanced; and every time that Mrs. Mathews had used them, Mr. ANDEaTON thought it would be most advisable to drop the subject altogether, as the continuance of discus sion would only create a bad feeling in the Court. Alderman THomrsoN said he should wish his evidence to go forth to the world as matter of personal justification, but he certainly would not wish that any inconvenience should result to the Corporation. It was his decided opinion !hat the office should be filled up as scon as possible for their general accommodation. Alderman T. WooD could not see that any practical good could arise from printing the Report. After considerable discussion, in which a great number of members participated, the Court adopted the Report. It is quite a matter of doubt upon whom the election will fall. Mr. Pearson's friends, who are very numerous, seem to be determined to propose him as a candidate in the event of the non-suspension of the Standing Orders of the Court, which, if acted upon, will certainly exclude Ser g, ant Merewether. The contest will then be between Afr.. Pearson, Mr. Pritchard, and Mr. Hughes Hmrhes. If Sergeant Merewether's friends are strong enough to suspend the Standing Orders, the Sergeant will assuredly be elected. 11avannah...........

LAMBETH-STREET. Wednesday Thomas Rouse, a cab proprietor, was brought before Mr. henry, on a warrant charging him with having violently assaulted his wife Harriet. Mr. Pelham appeared on behalf of the complainant, and Mr. Taylor for the defendant. Mrs. House, a well-dressed and good-looking young woman, stated that she had been married to the defendant for nearly seven years, and that during twe s ears of that time her husband had lived apart from her. On Monday week she, by the desire of her husband, who had for several weeks previously kept her confined to the house, went to see her mother, and had not proceeded far upon her journey when she was overtaken by a young man, named James Gouldie, who was the constant com panion of her husband, who addressed her, and she told him where she was going, and walked on to Cannon-street-road to hor mother's. She remained at her father's until half past nine o'clock, and her sister then accompanied her a great part of the way to her home. They had not left the house many minutes when they were met by Gouldie, who seemed anxious to get into conversation with them ; but, as they did not encourage him in his advances, he scent away. Almost immediately after her sister was gone Gouldie again made his appearance, and again attempted to get into conver sation with her, upon which she told him she must not be seen walking with him ; that her husband was jealous of her ; and she did not see anything mere of him until she reached Lime house Church, when he came up to her, and said her husband was present. Her husband at the moment came up to her, and accusing her of criminal conduct with Gouldie, struck her violently with his clenched fists. He also kicked her, and though scarcely able to walk from the effects of his brutality, she was dragged along by her husband on one side, and with him whom her husband accused en the other, for nearly three miles to the house of her mother. The witness, who appeared to be still suffering from the effects of her injuries, in conclusion said she had been so bad since she had received the injuries, that though the warrant had been taken out on the Ist inst., she was not able to attend before. Several witnesses were called, and amongst others the mother and sister of the 'complainant. The latter said that the defendant and Gouldie appeared to be on friendly terms, and that after the defendant had accused her sister of infidelity, and was very violent in his manner, lie tos.k his wife into the passage, kissed her several times, and ex claimed, " Oh, Harriet, you know I love you !" Mr. HENRY remarked that his conduct seemed altogether very strange, and it was difficult to account for his r, questing the very man whom he accused of improper conduct with his wife, to assist hint in her removal to her mother's. Mr. Taylor, for the defence, called James Gouldie, a strip ling, 19 years of age, who, in the most unblu.hing manner, acknowledged that an improper intimacy had existed between himself and the complainant for nearly two months. Mr. Pelham declared it to he his conviction that the affair was the result of a gross conspiracy to blast the character of the complainant, and rid her husb..,na of th burden, as well as that of the infant to which she must shortly give birth. The defendant was then held to bail, himself in SOL, and two sureties in 401. each, to appear and answer the charge at Hicks's Hall. GREAT NORTH OF ENGLAND RAILWAY.

His Lordship begs Colonel Parke and the officers will accept his best thanks for their attention throughout the day." An officer from the Royal Marine Artillery attended the inspection, and selected several men for duty in that branch of the service, and on no occasion had he less difficulty in making his choice from such a number of fine men, as a body, composing the corps. The Debats contains the following from New Zealand, Nov. :—" The French colony established at Akaroa, an island south of New Zealand, and placed under the protection of Capt. Lavaud, commanding the Aube corvette, stationed in the South Seas, is progressing admirably. The most perfect harmony prevails between the English and the French, thanks to the firmness and conciliatory spirit of the commander of the station, and the vigilance and ability of M. Sainte-Croix de Belligny, the Governor of the French colony. The best understanding exists between the French and English authorities, and whalers from every country are perfectly well received. The Aube set out Oct. '2l, with Mme. de Belligny on board, for Auckland, the seat of the English Government. On her passage she tell in with an American vessel in distress, having sprung a leak. Capt. Lavaud went out of his course, and took her under his protection, and conducted her to the Bay of Islands, where he was afterwards waited on, and thanked for his kindness, by the captains of the other American ships anchored there. The arrival of the Aube was also op portune for the English colonists, by protecting them against the .Maouris, the inhabitants of the northern part of Northern Island, whose preparations for attack seemed to place in great danger their safety. The Favourite corvette came to anchor in the Bay of Islands Nov. 10, two days after the Aube set sail for Sydney. Before her departure Capt. Lavaud learned that the Heroine corvette had arrived at Akaroa, and that the Allier corvette had left, after a short stay. The crews of the two vessels were in excellent health." CONTINENTAL FORGERS AND SWINDLERS.—For some time past (says the Gazette des Tribunaur of Satur day) a great number of forged notes have been in ci rcu l at i on in Cologne, Mentz, London, and Paris, without any exac t information being obtained as to the forgers. From an inti 'nation afforded by the various money-changers, bankers, and others, who had suffered by the fraud, it was at length sus pected that the issuers of the notes were a company of foreigners moving in high society, of elegant manners and good educa tion. The clue to the mystery was lately given by the arrest of Mme. D—, a young Polish lady of great beauty and elegance of appearance, who some short time back had taken a house at Pussy, where she was visited by a number of fo reigners, particularly a M. R--, with whom she made several journeys to England and Prussia. From information given to the Prefect of Poli c e, a warrant was i s . ued against the lady, which was executed at the same moment that a search was made by the officers of justice at the residence of M. R—, Rue de Mon.ieur-le-Prince. The gentleman had tied, but left behind a voluminous correspondence, which gave such exact information respecting the accomplices of the plot, that it was impossible they could escape. This was transmuted to England and Prussia, at.d a number of arrests were in con sequence effected, at the same time, at Dusseldorf, Cologne, Mentz, London, and Edinburgh, and thus this hitherto 'suc cessful association has been broken up.—[The whole details of this affair were exclusively published in the Morning Post, so far back as the 12th and 13th of January last, and our accounts of the conspiracy saved the mercantile and banking community from great losses. The name of the lady was Madame Danelle ; her maiden name was Minierska. Her accomplice was named Romanzow ; he has not yet been taken. Pressel, 'who was supposed to be an accomplice, established that he was ignorant of Romanzow's forgeries, and he has been released.—Note ED. Morning Post.] The Court adjourned after receiving a few petitions. Rachel appears for the first time this season to morrow in the Boraces. This tragedy has been well se leted fin-her debut, as it was the part in which last year this great genius had the most complete success. We ra-rt'eive that there is to be a dfferent tragedy on each of the six nights. Allusion was once before made to the conduct of the Belgian authorities relative to their interference in the rivalry existing between the English and the Belgian steam vessels at present engaged in the conveyance of passengers from Ostend and Antwerp, and we have now received a letter, which states that the last English steamer thence, the Rainbow, suffered considerable annoyance from one of the water-bailiffs stationed at Antwerp, on her home-bound passage. It appears that the Rainbow was put on at the regular hour, and was preparing to start accordingly, when it was announced to the Captain by the water-bailiff that he could not go at that time, but must either go a quarter of an hour before or after, as the Belgian boat had fixed that hour for starting. The repre sentation of the injustice of the demand was in vain, and therefore the Captain at last determined, at all hazards, to proceed on his voyage at the hour fixed, which he did, despite the threats of the waier-bailiff and his assistants. This may be viewed as a case in itself hardly deserving of mention, but when the principle it involves is seen, it will be acknowledged that, if not noticed in some quarter, it may give rise to other more serious inconveniences, the damage resulting from which. though perhaps in a certain degree recoverable in a court of law, could, properly speaking, never be repaired. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.—When our Indian de spatches were made up, Shah Soojah was lying drunk across the frontier, and was reported to be poisoned. Lots of the insurgents had been knocked down without any reserve by General `ale, and there has been an advance in consequence of the bidding of the commandant. Reschid or Wretched l'acha was sitting on the Khiber with his creatures, declaring they had come to a pretty pass, and the British resident who was taking his tea, let drop his cup on hearing of the proha lelity of the fall of China. The perjured traitor Soojie had gone into the interior with the greatest dili gence, and was followed in the rotonde by two of his attendants. From China our advices are highly encouraging. The Emperor has been purchasing card-board from Bristol, and the Chinese women wereemployed in cutting it out into the form of war-junks. There had been an arrival of fire -works from England for the use of Commissioner Lin, who had succeeded in fastening a cracker to the end of the bowsprit of an English frigate. The Emperor was discussing a chop when his Imperial Majesty was treated with some Har vey's Sauce for it, in the shape of an anonymous letter, front a midshipman of thi, name alluded to.—Punch. 4 1a ~~ T k . , of ,A
