They were tqere, however, to enforce the law, which they would do as strictly, but as mercifully as possible, and hoping the defendant would be enabled in the course of a few days to renew his license, they would suspend their warrant to compel payment of the penalty which was attrched to the offence --namely 100/.

This Work, a Seventh Edition of which is now presented to the public, ten thousand copies have been exhausted since its first appearance, has been very much improved and enlarged by the addition of a more extended and clear detail of general principles, as also by the insertion of several new and highly in teresting cases. The book, as has been already stated, is the result of very ample and daily increasing experience in a class of diseases, which, for some unaccountable reason, have been either altogether overlooked, or treated almost with indiffer ence, by the ordinary, medical practitioner. The proverbial and well known rapacity of unqualified practitioners, who traffic on the health and credulity of patients, has been en couraged and aroused by this supineness, on the part of the regular surgeon. In order to obviate the pernicious effects sure to result from the practices of such pretenders, the authors have fur a considerable time devoted themselves ex clusively to a certain class of diseases; of the necessity of so doing, they were further convinced by feeling that tact in in vestigating the latent sources of many diseases, which arise from certain secret praetices, can only be acquired by an ex clusive and undivided attention to this department of medical practice. The numberless instances daily occurring, whersin affections of the lungs, putting on all the outer appearances of consumption, which, however, when traced to their source, are found to result from certain baneful practices, fully proves that the principle of the division of labour, is nowhere more applicable than in medical practice. We feel no hesitation in saying that there is no member of society by whom the book will not be found useful, whether such person hold the relation of a Parent, a Preceptor, or a Clergyman. The PARENT, who beholds his beloved child pining away, and fast approaching to a premature grave, in conse quence of some disease, which, for want of careful investiga tion of its real cause, has been set down to the score of con sumption, will, on perusing this work, be astonished to find, that in nine-tenths of the cases of young persons of both .exos, who perish of what is called pulmonary consumption, heart disease, tabes, &e., the sole and exclusive origin has been the indulgence in certain destructive habits practised by youth much more frequently than it is at all suspected. The PRECEPTOR, also, who holds (temporark at least), the relation and responsibility of a parent, will, by perusing this work, be directed and very much assisted in investigating and detecting the too often con cealed practices so often introduced into schools, whereby the health and ultimately the lives of his pupils are sure to be com promised, unless the evil be arrested in proper time. He will here find a clue to guide him through the intricate mazes of this moral labyrinth, and a standard whereby to judge, when delicacy of health should appear to attack any of his young charges, what the real causes of such attack may, be, and thus he will be enabled to check the evil in its incipient state. The CLERGYMAN, in whose sacred character is at once concentrated the two-fold relation of parent and instructor, will here be directed as to the nature of those habits to which youth is addicted ; he will also be enabled to point out the dis astrous consequences which are sure to follow from them if not relinquished.

UNIVERSAL LIFE ASSURANCE OF FICE, 1, KING WILLIAM-STREET, LONDON. The. Rates of this Office, founded on the most accurate ob servations of the duration of human life, are as moderate as is consistent with perfect security. Onc-fifth of the ascertained profits of the five preceding years is divided between the policy-holders and shareholders ; three- fourths to the former, and one-fourth to the latter. The remaining four-fifths are set apart to enter into the average of the succeeding years, and thus to provide against unforeseen contingencies. _ _ The first division of prefits took place on the 13th of May, 1310, when a reduction of 60 per Cent. was declared on the current annual premiums of all those policies entitled to parti cipation. This second division of profits was in May, 1841, when a similar reduction was again declared.

Although the interests of this railway had suffered somewhat in that respect, a steady increase in the traffic of the line had been kept up ; in addition to which the Directors had been able to carry out their great object —a decrease of the charge of working the line--not, however, affected in any way by a decrease of the stock capital of the Comp any. In compliance with the ex pressed intention of the Directo rs, at the last half.yearly meeting, in which the Proprietors present coincided, a valuation of the stock of the Company had beets made, in the engine stock, by Mr. Bury, checked by Mr. Hill, of Bolton ; arid in the carriage stock, by Mr. Wright, checked by Mr. N. Worsdale, the mention of whose names would carry conviction, that the` cluties assigned to those gentle men could not have been entrusted to men of more skill and com pete:ley to discharge, satisfactorit, the duties that devolved upon then. The result of their laboufhad been that the system of per centage, already agreed upon, was riot effectually met by their cal. culations as compared with the first cost. The Directors, however,were not prepared to offer to the Proprietors any variation of the present principle of depreciation, which was found to be fair, equitable, and in every way satisfactory, and which,4 worked for a sufficient length of time, would certainly bring abtA,;. the natural,results that must flow /rem it. At any time, however, when a change should be come necessary, the Directors would feel it their duty to bring the subject before the Proprietors. He alluded with very great plea. sure to tha liberality of the Proprietors, who have allowed the Di. rectors to erect schools at Wolverton. He did so with peculiar gratification, because nothing could exceed the satisfaction which was felt by the inhabitants in their establishment, not only by one class of inhabitants, hist by all denominations in the neighbour hood, who all expressed their cordial approbation of the conduct of the clergyman appointed to conduct the schools. As an instance of the kindly feeling expressed, he mentioned that many Dissen ters had put their Sunday schools under the direction of the minis ter appointed by the Company. Allusion having been made a few nights ago to the unfortunate accident at Harrow, which arose entirely from the negligence of two of the Company's servants, who paidlthe forfeit of their lives, he referred with satisfaction to the fact, that not only did that accident arise from a positive disregard of the orders laid down by the Directors, but that during the last twelve mouths not a single passenger, tra velling by the railway, had met With any accident whatever, In congratulating the Proprietors upon the state of their affairs, which permitted them to receive, at this periodical declaraion, an increase in the amount of their dividend, namely, 4/. 154., per share on the 100/. shares, he begged to say that this was a dividend arising from the best working half of the year, and it would not be'fair to raise undue expectations by inferring the same result upon the next half year's working. The SECRETARY then read the half-yearly Report, from which it appeared that the ordinary traffic of the railway has exceeded that of the corresponding half-ygar of 1840, by a sum of 23,982/. 7s. Bd., and that this increase extends over every head of receipt, but principally the conveyance of merchandise and cattle. The net rent of the Company's estate, in lands and houses, exceeds by 1,3921. 10s. ld., the rental of the corresponding half-year; the charge on the traffic, including parish rates, taxes, and an allowance of 14,6431., for depreciation of the Company's carrying stock (exciudinginterest on loans, is 8,873/. 16s. less than in the half-year ending December ,31st, 1840, notwithstanding an extension of the general business of the railway, and the running of additional trains. The balance of interest paid by the Company is also less by 6,886/. 6s. Id. The aggregate increase of revenue, and decrease of expense, exhibited a total of 41,134/. 19s. 10d. in favour of the half-year 1841. The net profit of 227,8'244 Ils. 6d., added to the undivided residue of the balance of 30th June, 4,117/. 4s. Od., gives an amount of 231,941/. 15s. 6sl. applicable to the dividend; and out Of this the Directors recommended a dividend of 4/. 15s. upon each 100/. share; I/ 3s. 9d. on each 25/. share; I/. 10s. 4 4-sd. on each 32/. share ; and 15s. 4 4-sd. on the new 321. shares, amounting to 227,967/. 19s. 2d., and leaving a residue to the credit of the cur rent halff-year of 3 973/ 15s. 6d. „ . . _ The Report was then unanimously received aneadopted by the Company, and ordered to be printed and circulated. It was then agreed that power be given to the Directors to con clude an agreement for renting the Branch Line from Leamington and Warwick to Coventry, when made at the rate of 51. per cent. per annum on the estimated cost, not to exceed 130,000/., and subject to an equal division of the excess of profit over and above such rent, between the two Companies. It was stated by the Chairman that two years would be the maximum term of the lease. The following Directsors were then re-elected, :—J. B. Boothby, Esq. ; Thomas Cooke, Esq.; Christopher H. Jones, Esq. ; .1 F. Ledsam, Esq.; and Christopher Saltharshe, Esq. The CIIAIRNIAN then stated that the dividend would be payable on the 17th inst., and also informed the Proprietors that it was the intention of the Directors to provide for the present want of ac. comodation at the Euston.station, LondOn, by making very extcn. sive alterations in those premises; in fact, to complete the station in the way in which it was originally intended. He also stated in answer to a Proprietor, that the local stations, particularly that at Leighton Buzzard, were before the Board of Directors, with a view of effecang their completeness. A vote of thanks was then given to the Chairman and Directors. after which the meeting separated. This system of reduction in the premiums affords immediate benefit to the Assired, or enables them to secure a considerable bonus by effecting a new policy, Policies are granted in London, and by resident Committees at Calcutta, Madras, and Bombay, on India risks, at very ad vantageous rates, calculated from extensive data and tables, ex clusively in the possession of this Society, to show the true risk of life dur;ng residence in India, and after retirement from foreign service.

It is evident that State Prisons are more profit able than banks. In point of morals we do not suppose there is much difference—or, if any. the banks beat the State Prisons in the quality if not quantity of rascals they contain. The S've Prisons are few, but have several hundred small knaves ‘‘orth five dollars each ; the banks are numerous, and have only a small number, each worth the price of 52,7.25 dol. to :,0 !,000 dol. each. Probably in the aggi egate of villany, both are about equal. They are different on one important mea sure—the banks are opposed to a Bankrupt Law, the State Prisons for a repeal. Barra!

GLOBE.—Those who have hoped, against hope, for a good Corn-law from the Peel Cabinet may now see they have "expected," as Mr. Cobden said, "grapes from thorns, and figs from thistles." " None can compass more than they intend ;" and if Sir Robert Peel has not compassed a satisfactory Corn-law reform, it is because he did not intend such a reform. Everything must depend on the view which a statesman takes of the situation which he seeks to im prove. Now, there are two opposite views which are taken of the present situation of things. The Liberal party regard it as an " awful" crisis of our finance and commerce—as the turning p-int of our future destinies which must decide the extension or decline of our wealth and well-being. They trace mainly and distinctly to the Corn-laws a commencement of decline, which has most decidedly, whether permanently or not, taken place during these three or four years. They ask whether these acute fits of distress are to recur periodically—whether the malady (rooted in the precarious ness and insufficiency of the home supply of the neces saries of life) is to become ch ron ic—wh e th er the waste of national capital on improvidence-prices, for mere food is periodically to derange our commerce, and dry up our financial resources? Most clearly and demonstrably it has done so, during these four years last past. The Con servative Minister cannot deny the facts, but refuses to trace them to their source. Refusing to trace, in any great degree, to the Corn-law's the commercial and financial symptoms so fearfully developed and aggravated, he refuses (consistently) to seek the remedy in a thorough reform of those laws. The party in power have had ample warning both from the errors of their predecessors, and their, however tardy, perception and abandonmedi of those error. If Sir R. Peel had been free to act, he has had full experience to guide action—the experience of faults and embarrassments incurred by others for his instruction. The Whig ministers had tried expedients, before they threw themselves upon prin ciples ; had tried them with that signal ill-success which should have been a warning to their successors. It appears to be a settled routine in .hnglish statesmanship that every variation of vulgar policy shall be exhausted first, before it will be permitted to statesmen to strike into any new track. We certainly think the late Ministers ought to have taken new measureg stoner; because it would have prevented the imputa tion of moving without hope of carrying them. They are accused of having proposed those measures, because they had forfeited their tenure of office. It would be more correct to say they proposed them, because they had spent their stock of expedients. When new taxes proved unproductive, new prin ciples of taxation became imperative. STANDARD.—The Right Hon. Baronet, while, he does full justice to the claims of the agriculturists, puts .their case upon much higher and much stronger grouna than the claims of any class; he demonstrates that it is the in terest of the whole he consults in defending the landed and agricultural interest, and proves by irresistible ar gument the utter fallacy of all the pretences of the anti-agricultural party. Without in the least courting the manufacturing body, he disarms of the topics of agitation all who would excite discontent among them. The new scald will give corn cheaper—muck cheaper—in all seasons approaching to scarcity, than the fixed duty of the late Ministers. There is not much novelty in the reason ing of Sir Robert Peel's speech ; there never can be in the speech of one who reasons with truth and can dour, and without affectation, upon a well-worn subject. The highest merit of a speech in such cases is clearness of ar rangement, happiness of combination, and force of sxpreasion ; and by these last night's speech was eminently distinguished. There is one observation of the Right Hon. Baronet, howevet, which we do not remember to have met with before—at least in connect ion with the Corn.lavr question—although the fact referred to is fully warranted by experience, and although it has a most important bearing upon the question referred to. We allude to the fact that unfavourable seasons commonly come in periods of successive years, and not singly. But whoever suffers by an unfavourable season, the farmer is sure to suffer more than others one bad harvest discourages, if it does not disable, him from cultivating to the highest point in the next; and two or three bad seasons following each other without interruption, must utterly exhaust his resources, if, in addition to the evil of a deficient crop, he has to encounter a free foreign competition. Th us , th e fi e ld s wou ld , i n a l i ttle t i me, be left desolate—the home market, for all manufactured goods, extinguished —and the country reduced to a state of ab • solute dependence upon strangers for necessary food. As' may easily be supposed, the organs of the Opposition are extumely angry with last night's exposition. It wounds them as fatal to the hopes of the money jobbers by whom they are prompted, and as belying their confident predictions that Sir Robert Pecl would desert the agricultural interest. Lord John Russell last night seemed disposed to cavil at the extension of the field from which the averages are to be taken, and Mr. Cobden unleaded his bile in a fierce expression of mock amazement ; but the other Members of the Opposition were generally silent and sullen. As to Mr. Cobden, if he is, indeed, taken by surprise, he has to blame those journals of his own party that have taken so much pains to lull him in a ." fool's paradise." COURIER.--We can only briefly advert to the admirable style in which Sir Robert demolished the -fallacy that the well-being of the people must be measured in any country or at any period solely, or at all, by the compara tive cheapness of bread and provision stuffs. The only true barometer by which the .healthy state of a people can be ascertained must ever be the relative extent of command over the necessaries of life, which result from the advantages of a larger field of constant employment at more remu nerating rates of wages. The First Lord of the Treasury tested these important considerations by this only infallible standard, so far as such a standard can be termed infal lible, whose construction is the handy-work" of such impure hands as those of Dr. Bowring. That person, as our readers ,know, was engaged and paid to make out a one-sided case against the Core-laws, eoute qui coute, in respect of exaggeration in one sense, and depreciation in the other. He performed his task to admiration, as all the Anti-Corn-law faction have testified by unanimous acclaim. His object was to elevate above reality the social position and the material condition of the foreign operative class, and contemporaneously to understate that of the labouring classes here. With these objects his statistical figures, where not actually reposing on official authority beyond suspicion, were collected and constructed. Well it is on the partial, and on both sides highly coloured or trea 'chereus statements of this semi-official tourist, that Sir Robert proceeded to establish his case, and establish it he did to the satisfaction of every one who heard him, or who shall read at tentively this most interesting portion of his speech. He este lished beyond all question that the general condition of the British operative is, as we trust it may ever be, and as it ever will be, whilst home industry is promoted by Corn-law protection, greatly superior in al! regards to that of the same continental class. He established it, under the disadvantage of reason ing, from materials fabricated, tortu re d, or f urn i s h e d f rom a hostile quarter, incontrovertibly and irrevocably. Let those who doubt compare the amounts of wages, the prices of food, and the several rates per head and per people of the consump tion necessaries or comforts in Prussia or Belgium, with those of this country. MONEY MARKET i.nd CITY NEWS. FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF SATURDAY. TIM ES.—The letters from India by the Oriental were del:vercd this morning, and being of no later date than those received by the • Marseilles expresses of this journal and the Overland Mail, are not generally to be referred to for news. There is one letter, however, which contains a statement of very great importance. It is dated on the 10th of De cember, from the camp at Dadur, in UK er Scinde, from a military officer, who says, " Major Outrun, the political agent here, has received a private ac • count of the total destruction of Cabul on the 13th ult., with 20,000 rebels.' Such an account must of course be held to require confirmation, but the hope of its proving true is greatly strengthened by the accounts already published, which come down to the 11th of November, two days previous to the above date, and advert to the possession of the citadel by our troops, who had then gained some partial successes over their assailants, to which this therefore is likely enough to have been the sequel. As to the position of General Sale at Jel lalabad there is no encouragement in these letters to believe the first accounts exaggerated ; it was as desperate as it well could be. The resolutions proposed by Mr. Gladstone, which have been issued this morning ameng the Parliamentary papers, have furnished an interesting theme of discussion to the mer chants in the city. Not only arc they regarded as affording a valuable relief to our West Indian and North American Colo nies, but theduty for the admission of corn into these colonies (3s. on the quarter of wheat, and 2s. on the barrel of wheat flour) is looked upon as an important auxiliary to the proposed modi fication of the Corn-laws, and an opening for the admission of United States' corn into this country at what may be almost considered a fixed duty. For at this low rate, the United States, which are now g row i ng corn i n great abund ance, would import their wheat into Canada, whence, though it could not be imported here as wheat at the comparatively low rate charged on corn from the British possessions, on ac count of the requisition of a certificate e produce, it could be brought in the shape of flour, as corn ground in the colonies can be certified as a production of those colonies. Reckoning, therefore, that the duty on flour follows in proportion to the duty on wheat, it w.ll be found that wheat which will be im por:ed into Canada at 3s. per quarter would, even at the highest rate, only pay ss. more to be received into the United King dom—that is, that the maximum of duty on United States' corn admitted here will be only 6s. In the northern* parts of the American Union a great eagerness is shown to collect corn, and those merchants in London who are interested in the prosperity of the States look upon the resolutions with much gratification. The advantage to the United States is, indeed, admitted on all hands, and some are of opinion that too much is conceded to a country which, it is thought, will not be too willing to make concessions in return, and the returns for the trade with which have for many years past been of a very questionable nature. These consi ter that some favour should be shown to British shipping, and that some modification should be introduced which would not give the United States such an unqualified advantage. There is a reservation with respect to certain goods which shall be imported into the colonies through the United Kingdom, which seems to have been mule for the encouragement of Bri tish navigation, but this, of course, could not apply to the trade between the United States and the West India possessions, which is the most important trade affected by the measure. PADDINGTON ANTI-CORN-LA W ASSOCIATION. A very largely-attended meeting of the members of this Branch Association was held an Friday, at the Bayswater Tavern, Pad.. dington—Mr. B. 11.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY; Feb. 12. HITCHCOCK'S BANKRUPTCY.-DECLARATION OF A DIVIDEND. Mr. ASUVAST this morning, on behalf of Monis. Cook and Gladstone, consented to have his clients' claim delayed for three months, to allow the assignees time to examine more minutely into the case. Mr. Sotz then stated that the assets amounted to 5,0001. After a short cenversation, it was arranged that a dividend of 2s. in the pound should be declared, Mr. ASHURST said that the dividend was like an ounce of silver spread over Salisbury Plain. NSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Feb. 12. IN THE MATTER OF EDWARD HARRIS. The insolvent, who had been acting manager of the Victoria Theatre, and had entered into liabilities for the two late pro prietors, Beverley and Ratcliffe, both of whom were described as " insolvent debtors," applied to be discharged on sureties until his hearing on the 11th of March next. The COURT granted the application for the discharge of the insolvent. The case of Mr. Wallack, the actor, of the Haymarket the atre, which was reported on Friday, was again mentioned at a subsequent period of the day on which the motion was made. The application was for a special order to enable the insolvent, who has lately been performing the principal character in the new comedy of Marriage, to appear before the Court on Wednesday, to be discharged on sureties until his hearing. The report stated the readiness of the Court to grant the in dulgence, provided the messengers of the Court would give certificate to serve the bail notices in time, as the customary day for the delivery of the same had expired, and it was uncer tain whether the application could be granted. The messen gers, however, undertook to serve the notices, and the Court directed the order to issue for Wednesday next instead of the billowing Monday. The 's'chedule - of Mr. Wallack, who is now in the Fleet Pri:on, has been filed for public inspection. It exhibits debts for which consideration has been received, extending over a lengthened period, to 12,7051., and there is property mentioned on the schethile for the creditors. It will be recollected that Wallack was the proprietor of " The N a ti ona l Th ea t re " in New York. The insolvency is attributed to the destruction of the theatre and the loss sustained by fire in September, 1839. The prbfessional income of the insolvent appears to have been considerable, especially last year, when he realised 1,2001. His expenditure, on the other side, shows the disbursement if the money he had received for a number of years. By the 'general practi:•e of the Court, insolvents arc required to commence their balance sheets from the data of the earliest debt in the schedule. —Mr. Wallack has an order to appear before the court on Wednesday, the l'o'th inst. The hearing of the case is ordered for the 21st March. An insolvent, named Richard Pryce, who had been a shell fishmonger in the Strand, was on Friday opposed by Mr. Nichols, on the part of creditors, and supported by Mr. Cooke, with Mr. Wcoilro ffe.--1 he insolvent was examined at con silerable length, and his case occupied several hours. It ap peared that he had been bail in this Court on some occasions, and had been a " sporting character:" He betted on horse racvs, and last " Derby Day" he lest about 400/., which he believed he had nearly all paid.—The Court, after a l ong in vestigation, ordered the insolvent to be discharged. Mr James Seaper, of the Ship public-house, Fore-street, Lambeth, and Benjamin Emery, the keeper of the Salutation, in Barton-street, Westminster, were complained of for neglect ing to renew their license —The defendants ere Severally fined 1001., and t-,ld that on taking out their license again they might apply for a mitgation. A Frenchman named Bluel, described as of No. 7, Borough road, was charged with being found possessed of a large quan tity of illicit spirits. It appeared from the evidence, thaz, the defendant having quarrelled with one of his countrymen, who was as " deep in the mud as he was in the mire " in his illegal practices, the latter " split " upon him to two excise -officers, who repaired to his rremises, and found concealed an immense quantity of illicitly manufactured spirits.—Fined, 51. - - Mr. John Gronett. of the Cock and Key, Montague-street, Whitechapel, was charged with having in his possession some brandy, 41 re•r cent. underproof.—Condemned. Daniel Reader, of Store-street, Stepney, was charged with working an illicit still. Messrs. Whisker and Hughes, the officers, proved the., ease. The still, they said, was fully charged when they seized it, and the construction of it had cost an im mense sum of money. —Defendant was fined 501. -- POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION HOUSE. On Sa!urd ty a Brussels banker and broker, named Stockley, was brought before the Lord Mayor upon the charge of un lawfully selling, negotiating, transferring, and converting to his own use and benefit 14 Dutch French certificates of a loan at 2L- per cent., made by the Dutch Government for 1,000 florins each, of the value of 1,2001., or thereabouts, which cer tificates had been entrusted to him as a banker, by a widow lady named Honoria Hannah Molony. Mr. C. Jones appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Bodkin for the prisoner, who was brought up in custody of Daniel Forrester. Mr. C. Jones opened the case by stating, that the lady who complained, the widow of a gentleman but lately deceased, was in Brussels in 1840, and being possessed of Dutch French bonds to the amount of between 1,2001. and 1,3001, deposited them in the hands of the prisoner, a banker and money agent in the place, for security, and at the same time received from him, to answer some occasion, an advance of 1201. or 1301. The lady, unsuspicious that any unfair play was meditated, received from the prisoner the interest upon the bonds at the usual period of the liquidation of the claims of the bondholders ; but after a time she ascertained that the prisoner had actually sold them, and applied the p rocee d s to hi s own use. There was another charge arising from the transaction, to which in a sub sequent stage of the proceedings he should refer. At present he should confine himself to the particular accusation to which he alluded, and which was comprehended under the 7th and Bth of George IV., cap. 28, see. 49. The Learned Counsel then pro ceeded to call witnesses. . Mrs. Honoria Hannah Molony deposed that in the early part of February, 1840, she was in Brussels with her husband, who had since died. She had in her care fourteen Dutch French bonds, which cost her husband the sum of 1,250/. Mr. Stockley carried on in Brussels the business of a banker, a broker, and a money-lender. By her husband's directions she applied to Mr. Stockley for the loan of 3,000 francs, when he asked her upon what security the loan was required; she offered him, at her husband's desire, some' Spanish piastres, which he (leased to take. She afterwards offered him the Dutch French heeds, and upon looking at them, he said they were very good, and asked her whether she wanted the whole of the 3,000 francs at ome, to which she replied that it was no object. Mr. Stockley paid her the 3,003 francs in three dif ferent instalments of 'l,OOO francs each, the whole amount bein g paid up in ten days. She d e p os it e d t h e b on d s i n t h e hands of Mr. Stockley as security for the money he had ad vanced, and for no other purpose. As the interest of these bonds formed part of the property of the family, she spoke to Mr. Stockley upon the subjesit of receiving that interest, and he said to her, " Oh, when you want the interest you can come to me. Mr. Janes—Did you ever give him authority to sell or dis pose of the bond s ? Mrs Molony—Never. THE MEXICAN LOANS.

Mr. GREENWOOD—Heavy and tape ; what do you mean? —Defendant—l'm surprised that you don't know. Accord ing to the classics of St. Giles's parish, heavy is porter, and tape is gin. Now, as to my face, I said it was clean in the morning—that is true, and it was also true that I was then compos mentis.

On Saturday Mr. Superintendent Williams, of the.l. divi sion of Police, laid some documents before Mr. Grove, the sitting Magistrate, r2lative to a complaint that had beet made by Reyles Hurrril, E,q., the son of a Magistra . te Int fuffolk, wherein he states that he was down at Woolwich to see the review, and an leter stranger in the town, when :he was suddenly laid, hold of, dragged to a house, wherg the., hand cuffs were in the inOit aiolent manner put on, and then conveyed to a station-house, and for what reason .he was at a loss to know; at which he, of cewse, felt very much ; brit, through the worthy 'Magistrate's kindness; he was discharged, with a regret that such an occurrence had happened, and that there was no pretence for his being taker( into custody at all, and the officer had exceeded his duty in so doing. However, as he heard the man bore a good character in the force, and had a large family dependant upon h:na, he would forego the charge if he would make a public apology in the same court, and put a small sum in the poor box ; but grosser conduct and violence he never experienced, and protested at the time against it, and stated who he was to them. The poliee•constab'e Cox, 31 L, expressed his sorrow, and saki it was quite through a mistake it occurred. Mr. Cohen, a most respectable schoolmaster, residing in Powis-street, WOOlwich, then had a complaint to make, against the same constable. He stated that he was passing through the churchyard with a cloak on, when he was - also hustled against. thinking it was the swell mob when the constable caught hold of him he resisted, he (the constable) not haring any uniform en; when the constable threatened to put the handcuffs on, but would show no authority for so doing, when they had a scuffle ; but he was taken into custody, and into some house, whe❑ he was recognisedbY imne of the'most influential people in the town, and bail to any amount being offered, he was liberated. Mr. GitovE expressed regret that so highly respectable a person had met with similar treatment; the constable was liable to a fine of 101. in each case, or two months' imprison ment. He might most gratefully thank the gentlemen fur such leniency as they had shown after being so 1.1-used. On account of his good charaaer and family he would allow him to do u they wished. The police constable made the requisite apology, and put the money in the bos, returning many thanks to the Magistrate for allowing him to do EO. Air.

CAUTION TO LICENSED VICTUALLERS.-.—Mr. Frederick Bonselmain, proprietor of the White',Hart public-house, in the Whitechapel-road, was complained of for selling wine without a licence. The offence having been proved, the Court asked the defendant what he had to say in his defence.—He replied that he was not in the habit of retailing wine, but generally kept a small quantity in his house for the consumption of his family. Mr. MATow (to the officer)—Did you have any difficulty in procuring the article. Officer—Not any. The defendant immediately on my asking for it, reached down a bottle and filled a glass, remarking as he did so, " I do not sell wines, but I will let you have some." Defendant—This is the first time I have offended against the Excise-laws. The Hon. BERKELEY PAGET—lndeed. How very unfor tunate to be caught the first time.—( A laugh.) Defendant— It was my first offence I assure you. Captain PERCY—TeII that tale to some one who will believe it. You can hardly expect that we do. Defendant—Will you allow me to take out a license. The Hon. BERKELEY PAGET.—We will insist on your doing that if you sell wines, and, moreover, we now order you to pay a penalty of 101. The honest trader must be protected. Mr. Had, of the Cooper's Arms, Rosemary-lane, was charged with selli ng a le and spirits without a license: The defendant's house had been duly licensed, but the license ex pired in October last, since which time the trade had been car ried on as usual. It was stated to the Court that the de fendant's poverty was the cause of his offending the law. He,
