1833, at the request of the partnership, he lent ' them the remainder of the Cuba bonds upon the deposit of Norristown and Bally Railway shares to the value of 33,000/. ; and in 1840 these shares were exchanged for Cairo City and Canal Bonds, which were deposited in the a pp ellant's box at the ' banking-house. Of this box the bankers had the key, and after their bankruptcy in September, 1840, the appellant discovered that the securities he thought were in the box, had been removed, and debentures in the Commercial Steam Packet Company and in the Maryland and New York Iron and Coal Company, had been substituted. In 1841 the appel lant presented his petition to the Court of Review, praying that these debentures might be put up for sale ; that the appellant might be at liberty to bid for them, and that he might prove for the deficiency against both the separate and joint estates of the bankrupts. On the case coming on before the late Sir John Cross, he ordered a sale of the securities, gave the appellant liberty to bid for them, and also to prove against the separate estate of John Wright for the amount of the first loan of 2.5,000/. Cuba Bonds to him ; but with respect to the second loan of 28,000/. Cuba Bonds, his Honour held that the appellant had no right of proof at all, and from that decision the present appeal was brought. Mr. BETHELL and Mr. Puuvxs appeared for the ap pellant, contending that a breach of trust had been committed by all the partners, and that such being the case, the appellant had a right to prove against the separate and joint estates of all the partners. Mr. SWANSTON and Mr. Dixon were counsel for the assignees, and submitted that the judgment below was correct, and ought to be allowed to stand. Mr. PURVIS, in the absence of Mr. Bethell, having replied, The LORD CHANCELLOR said he must consider the case before he gave judgment, which he would do in a day or two. ROLLS' COURT, Nov. 8. The Court was engaged with consent petitions and short causes in the early part of the morning. CORT V. WILSON. In this cause the bill had been filed for the admi nistration of the testator's estate, who had died some years ago, and by his will bequeathed 1,3001. a piece to his three natural cl-Aqdren, the plaintiffs in the re cord, and had directed that these legacies should be paid in priority to all other legacies. The testa tor had also given other legacies to different parties, after the payment of which the r - sidue of his property was to go to his three chil dren. At the time of his death, the testator had been in partnership with Mr. Wilson, who had been ap pointed the guardian of the children, and there appeared to be some.cloubts as to whether all the assets of the firm would be realised. The Master had, under the decite of the Court, made a report that there were no debts on the estate, and Mr. Wilson had been directed to pay into Court, from time to time, such sums of money as the estate might realise. A further report of the Master had been also made, from which it ap peared that there would be sufficient in the fund paid in to Court to satisfy the plaintiffs' claim in respect of their legacies, but not sufficient to leave any residue, and therefore the amount of the legacies of 1,3001. each, was all the interest the plaintiffs could have in the estate. Mr. PEMBERTON, who appeared for the plaintiffs, said that what was now proposed was to have all the costs of the suit taxed, and to refer it to the Master to inquire and report what sum should he set apart, out of the money paid into Court, for the legacies. Mr. KINDBRSLET appeared for Mr. Wilson, the guardian. All he asked was, that, for the future, the income of the children's legacies should be allowed for their maintenance, ac cording to the Master's report. Also to refer it to the Master to inquire whether any and what sum should be allowed to Mr. Wilson, for the purpose of making up for the time past, during which the sums paid into Court on account of the legacies, were not sufficient for their maintenance; to inquire what arrears there were of the interest on the children's legacies, which the fund had not yet been able to supply ; and also what amount had been allowed for the maintenance of the children. Mr. PEMBERTOS—That is the object we propose. Order granted. NOKES V. WH kRTON. This part-heard cause, which had engaged the Court the whole of Saturday and Monday, was resumed to-day, and Mr. Pemberton brought his reply to a conclusion.—Judgment deferred. " The Court rose at one o'clock. VICE-CHANCELLORS' COURT, Nov. 8. (Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR of ENGLAND.) EVANS v. JAMES. _ The hearing of this case was resumed. It was an I application on the part of the personal representative of the plaintiff to remove a deed executed by him, as conclusive evidence of a debt of 1,5001. due to de fendant, who had acted as the solicitor of the plaintiff for a number of years. The deed was drawn up by the defendant himself, and witnessed by his clerk. "Mr. BETHEL, in support of the application, said that no account of the items of the debt had ever been rendered. Mr. Stewart was heard on thepart of the defendants. His Hoxoua said he must read over all the plead ings before he gave his decision.—Ordered to stand over for judgment. (Before Vice-Chancellor Sir JAMES WIGRAM.) ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. FOSTER. The hearing of this cause, which was part heard before the commencement of the long vacation, was concluded this morning. It was an information against Mr. Foster, Mr. W. Patten, M.P., and another gentleman, as trustees of the Manchester school. In his reply on behalf of the defendants on Saturday, Sir Charles Wetherell stigmatised the suit as an attempt, since Manchester had become a borough, with all the adjuncts which attach to boroughs, to democratise the school, and even to sansculottize it, by converting it from a classical into a commercial academy. Part of the case of the de fendants was directed to show that the master had by tradition a right to take boarders, which right had been disputed by the Counsel for the plaintiffs. Mr. ANDERSON addressed the Court this morning in support of the information. His HoNor a said he should certainly not decide the case without referring again to the cases which had been cited; but he certainly did not entert sin the least doubt as to the principle on which he ought to act. In this case an information was filed, and cer tain persons were made trustees. Pending the pro ceedings in the cause, and before a decree had been drawn up, some of the persons who were trustees at the beginning had ceased to be so, and three new trustees were appointed. Before the decree had passed, a supplemental bill had been filed against the three new trustees. That bill insisted that the new trustees were bound by all that had taken place in the cause before they had become trustees. The three new trustees, who had been made parties to the supplemental bill, had put in an answer, in which they had set up . several matters which would go to show that the original decree ought not to have been pronounced ; they insisted, in fact, that they had a right to make a defence of their own as to the relief sought by the information. Exceptions were taken on the ground of impertinence; it was stated that • inasmuch as they were bound by former proceedings, all that was said about merits was irrelevant. The Master decided that it was not impertinent, and exceptions were taken to the Master's report. Sir Charles Wetherell and Mr. Russell were heard for the defendants, and The . case was ordered to stand over for judgment. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, Nov. 8. (Sittings in Banco.) THE QUEEN V. WALTON. In this case a scire facias had been issued, for the purpose of trying the validity of a patent, which the defendant had obtained for certain improvements in • troduced by him into a machine for carding and comb ing wool and cotton. The invention consisted in the substitution of India rubber for leather, as the bed for the teeth of the carding machine, whereby superior elasticity was obtained. The issues set up on the part of the Crown were, that the invention was not calculated to be of public use ; that it was not found out by the defendant; that it was not a new manu facture; that the specification WM insufficient ; that it was useless for some of the purposes stated in the specification ; and that it had been in public use before 1834. The trial took place before Lord Denman in the sittings after last term, and the Jury found for the Crown, thus invalidating the patent. Sir THOMAS WILDE now moved for a rule nisi for a new trial, on the ground that the verdict was against evidence. The validity of the patent had been tried twice before in actions brought by the patentee for the infringement of his patent in both of which he had received verdicts. On the trial it Nv mild be contended that the invention did not essentially differ from the inventions of APln tosh and Hancock, whereas elasticity constituted no feature of their invention, while it was the distin guishing characteristic of the invention of Mr. Walton. Lord DENMAN thought it a very fit case for further inquiry. The defendant was entitled to a rule to show cause at least. —Rule nisi granted. HUNT V . HELPS. This was an action brought o . n by the plaintiff, a paper manufacturer, carrying business . in Bermondsey, against the defendant as the public officer of the Bri tish Alliance Insurance o rn h y, to recover 2,000/., the amount of a policy urance, for goods destroyed by fire. The declaration' drawn . up in the usual form, and it was set out was th i e i r r e i l r n h that in the policies of insurance granted by the Alli ance Company that, in case of the destruction articles by fire, the assured should, within a certain day day thereafter, give in the statement of particulars of the articles so destroyed, on which the el • aim was THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER: 9, 1842. made, and that he should verify such statements by i INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Nov. 8 . I affidavit before the Lord Mayor, and that if there I UNCLAIMED DIVIDEND FUND.—In a case where should be any fraud in such statement then the i an insolvent's petition was filed through the agency assured should forfeit all the benefit to be derived 1 of this charity, Mr. Commissioner Harris said he from the policy. The defendant pleaded, first, that I would make a general order, that the attorney appear there was a fraud in such statement of demand, and ling for such insolvents should receive no money from a fraud in the affidavit made by plaintiff before the I the fund until after the hearing. In the present in- Lord Mayor. Subsequently two other pleas had been stance the insolvent's conduct had been such as to in added—first, that the fire had been occasioned b y the I duce the Court to refuse no less than three applica wilful procurement of the plaintiff; and, secondly, tions for bail on his behalf, and yet, after getting an that the fire had been occasioned by the wil ful act advance from the charity, with which the detaining and connivance of the plaintiff. The case was tried creditor was paid, the insolvent was discharged, thus before Lord Abinger at the last Surrey Assi zes, and p rejudicing the interests of the more worthy appli thelJury found a verdict for the defendant on the plea cants. of fraud. Mr. Sergeant SIIEA, on the part of the plaintiff, now moved for a rule to show cause why the ver dict should not be set aside, and a new trial granted, partly on the ground of misdirection by the Learned Judge, and partly on affidavit. From the state of the pleadings, their Lordships would perceive that as the burden of proof lay upon the defendant, it was for him to begin. Accordingly the Counsel for the defendant opened his case, and undertook to prove the pleas. The case for the defendant occupied the whole of the first day of trial, and almost the last witness called was Mr. Abbott, the surveyor to the Company, who stated that a few days after the fire the plaintiff had called upon him, and he had questioned plaintiff as to the items which he had returned as having been destroyed in the machine-room to the value of 1401.—that he had questioned him as to the value of each particular item, asking him, item by item, and among them he (Mr. Sergeant Shea) wished particularly to draw their Lordship's at tention to one item, mentioned by Mr. Abbott in his evidence, as a great deal turned on that item—it was, press boards, 51.65. The value of the articles thus enumerated by Mr. Abbott amounted to 501. only, instead of 1401., and Mr. Abbott stated that, in reply to his questions, plaintiff said that he, plaintiff, wished to do the best he could for his creditors ; and, in fact, it appeared that he had made an assign ment of the whole of his property, including this policy, for the benefit of his creditors. Such was the state of affairs at the conclusion of the first day. He (Mr. Sergeant Shea) had an affidavit from plaintiff's attorney, stating the occurrences on the morrow. The plaintiff's Counsel opened his case, and was pro ceeding with his address to the Jury, when he was interrupted by Lord Abinger in these words—" Do you mean to contend that Mr. Abbott is perjured, because, if you do not I shall direct the Jury to find for the defendant,:on the plea of fraud." The Counsel for the plaintiff replied that the evidence of Mr. Ab bott was capable of explanation, on which Lord Abinger put it to the Jury if they believed Mr. Ab bott. The Jury expressed a desire that the case should proceed, on which Lord Abinger said to them " The question you have to decide is if you believe Mr. Abbott or not." The Jury expressed a desire to re tire, when one of them asked if the only question they had to try was, whether they believed Mr. Abbott or not, to which Lord Abinger replied, " That is the only question you have to try ; if you believe Mr. Ab bott you must find for the defendant on the plea of fraud." Lord DENMAN—Were you present at the trial, brother Shea. Mr. Sergeant SHEA—No, my Lord. I was not. A learned friend of mine conducted the case for the plaintiff, and he did not think it right to move this rule. I have satisfied myself as to what took place, and having been requested to move on this affidavit, I conceive I have no option but to move the rule. Lord DENMAN—If you move on affidavit, your affidavit should state everything. It should not only state all that the deponent saw and witnessed, but it should also state that application had been made to the Learned Counsel engaged in the cause, and that he had refused to act. Mr. Sergeant SHEA—That is the fact, my Lord. Lord DENMAN—If you will undertake that the at torney in the case will make an affidavit to that effect, you may go on, but for the future affidavits of this nature must be perfect in the first instance. Mr. Sergeant SIIEA undertook that such an affida vit should be made. The result of this interference on the part of the Judge was the plaintiff's cause had never been heard at all, and that his charac ter had been blasted, and his creditors had been deprived of the property without his being heard in his defence. He (Mr. Sergeant Shea) submitted that the question put by Lord Abinger to the Jury, was not the question in the cause at all. In acase which had been stopped in this manner, of course he could not refer to the evidence, but he had an affidavit of merits. He had an affidavit from the plaintiff, stating that all the pleas were false and untrue, and setting forth that if the cause had been allowed to go on, it must have been proved to be the mistake of Mr. Abbott. The plaintiff stated that Mr. Abbott had asked him ques tions as to the value of various items, and among other questons had asked him the value of the boards, to which he had replied 51. 10s., but that Mr. Abbott had never asked him about three presses which constituted one item of the demand, and which . were of the value of 901., which, together with the 50/. admitted by Mr. Abbott, made up the amount 1401., which was the amount claimed. The plaintiff further stated that the remains of these presses were still visible, and were capable of being valued. He submitted, therefore, that he was en titled to a rule, inasmuch as the plaintiff's cause had never been tried at all. Lord DENMAN—We will see the Learnd Judge on the subject. We are in doubt as to whether any affidavit is necessary, whether you ought not to have credit ex relatione. You have heard from the Learned Counsel that all that the affidavits state took place. Mr. Sergeant SHEA—The Learned Counsel has told me all that passed, not perhaps in the same words as the affidavits, but he has satisfied me as to what occurred ; and I am also bound to state that my Learned Friend has also satisfied me as to the pro priety of his not making the motion as a matter per sonal to himself. Lord DENMAN—We will take a day to consider what the practice ought to be, if it should be all affi davit, or all matter of relation from the bar.—Judg ment postponed. IN RE HENRY THOMAS HUISH. The insolvent had carried on extensive business as a cab. owner and job-master. At a previous period he had also been a butcher in Newgate-market. Mr. WOODRUFF]: opposed his discharge on the ground of fraudulently and vexatiously defending an action brought by the detaining creditor ; also for having made away with a quantity of property, and sold a certain reversionary interest to which he was entitled, to the detriment of his creditors. Mr. Commissioner HARRIS said he should order the insolvent to be remanded for six months from the date of his vesting order, for unnecessarily defending the action ; and as there was considerable suspicion about the case, an assignee was appointed to watch it closely. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (YESTERDAY.) MANSION-HOUSE. Lee, the mock wine-merchant, who has undergone several examinations on charges of having defrauded tradesmen of goods, was yesterday brought up for final examination. The solicitor for the prosecution stated that he con sidered there was sufficient matter in the evidence of Mr. Leach, the clerk to Messrs. Taddy and Co., tobacconists, to prove that the prisoner had obtained the goods under false pretences. The prisoner, with out having any license for the sale of wines, applied to the prosecutors in the character of a wine-mer chant, and gave in his card, which represented him and a Mr. Gould as wine-merchants at No. 14, Cooper's-row, Austinfriars, a neighbourhood in which men of eminence in the wine trade resided. Now the prisoner was anything but the character he represented himself to be, and Mr. Leach would not have allowed the tobacco to be taken to the premises of the prisoner if he had not believed him to be a wine-merchant, which he certainly was not. Lee said he had dealt in nothing but wine for the last seven years, and the solicitor for the prosecutor happened to be a customer himself to one of the persons with whom he (the prisoner) had had dealings in wine. The solicitor to the prosecutor—Who is that ? Lee —Mr. Hennekey. The solicitor for the prosecution—As you have mentioned that name, I shall tell you what Mr. He,unekey told me. He declared that you swindled him to the value of 401.—(A laugh.) Lee—That was all owing to a bad debt, and as for Mr. Taddy, I assure you, my Lord, he never asked me for the money at all.—(Laughter.) The prisoner was then committed for trial for hav ing obtained goods from Messrs. Taddy and Co. under false pretences. A lady, who put no signature to her communication to the Lord Mayor, inclosed a 101. note to his Lord ship for the service of the poor. his LORDSHIP said the season was approaching when contributions of the kind would be most neces sary to meet the pressing demands at the Justice room. He hoped that his successor would find, at the commencement of the new Mayoralty, that the female friends of humanity would rally round him, and that the new Lord Mayor would be enabled to do more good for the poor by the assistance of the bene volent, than any of his predecessors. A man of respectable appearance, named Peter Adamson, appeared before Alderman Gibbs, on Mon day evening, at a late hour, charged with having ob tained the sum of 2001., under false pretences, from a young Scotchman named John Heron. The pretence was understood to be, that the complainant should be a partner in a commercial agency at Port Phillip. Mr. Clarkson attended as counsel, and Mr. Bozon as soli citor for the prosecution. Mr. Clarkson stated that Mr. Heron resided at No. 1, Bridge-road, Lambeth, and had lately received 4001., which had been bequeathed to him. He was of age in June, and he had a cousin who was employed in an Australian house, whom he sometimes visited. He met there the prisoner, about the 24th or 25th of July, and held some conversation with him about Texas, to which place Mr. Heron intended to go, for the purpose of advancing his condition. The prisoner declared that he was going to Melbourne and Port Philip, that he had been an emigration agent, and that he had letters to secure his appointment to a colo nial agency, from Sir James Graham and Lord Stan ley, so that there was no doubt whatever as to the profitable nature of the transactions in which he was concerned. The prisoner further stated that it would be folly on the part of the prosecutor to set off for Texas, when there was such an opportunity to go with singular chances of a prosperous result to a place so much superior, and added that he had been kept dallying about a partnership with a gentle man for some time, and if the negotiation were not completed within a very short period, it should be wholly terminated. The prosecutor finally was induced by the representations of the pri soner, of the correctness of which he entertained no doubt, to accompany him to Port Philip. The pri soner had in the course of their communications toge ther told him not to mention anything about their plans to his cousin or friends, and thus the prosecutor had nobody to direct his inexperience or secure him by advice against the inducements held out to him to part with his money. The consequence was that Mr. Heron was prevailed upon to sign a deed of partner ship and to give to the prisoner the sum of 2001. It was in vain he requested to be allowed to consult his friends in Scotland. The prisoner declared that con siderable loss had already been sustained in consign ments in consequence of the delay made by the gen tleman who was to have been his partner, and no fur ther procrastination could take place. The prosecutor found after he parted with his money, that Mr. Adam son was not so anxious to see him, or to depart for the place in which they were to reap such advantage. Disappointment after disappointment took place, and at length the prosecutor determined to try the effect of an appeal to the Lord Mayor. Mr. Heron made a statement to the effect of Mr. Clarkson's address. He said the prisoner had the deed of partnership executed by an attorney, no pro fessional man having been present on his (witness's) account. The prisoner was to have seen him two days after the payment of the money, for the purpose of coming to an explanation on every point, but did not keep the appointment, and witness did not see the prisoner until ten days afterwards, although they were to meet every two days, and the prisoner was to have brought the letters in testimony of the fidelity of his statements, It was, however, evident, that no. thing honourable was intended by Mr. Adamson, al though he said he was a most honourable man ; and witness declared to him that he was desirous to have his 2001. returned, in order that he might prepare to go to Texas. The observation which the prisonermade upon being thus applied to was, that he should hold the witness as a partner, but that he would consent to let him have his note of hand, or bill for 1001., at six months' date. Upon the part of the prisoner, it was stated that the prosecutor and Mr. Adamson were partners, and a deed of partnership was produced, with the signa ture of both parties attached.

BOW-STREET. BAIL COURT, Nov. 8. SMITH V. LORD DYSART. Mr.BARsTow moved fir a distringas in this case to compel the defendant to appear. It appeared from the affidavit that a person went to Lord Dysart's resi dence, and after having appointed a day to see Lord Dysart to serve the writ, he called on the day ap pointed, but was told that Lord Dysart had left in the morning. It also stated that Lord Dysart's solicitor said he would not appear.—Application granted. BOSANQUET AND OTHERS V. GRAHAM. Mr. OGLE moved for a rule to show cause why the judgment signed against the defendant, as a public officer of the Southern District Banking Company, and all subsequent proceedings, should not be set aside for irregularity. The motion was precisely similar to one made yesterday by Mr. Thesiger, the scire facias being merely against another party. Application granted. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Nov. 8. HELL V. ANDERSON. This was an action for demurrage, tried before Lord Abinger at the last assizes in London, when a verdict was returned for the defendant. It appeared that the plaintiff was the master of a vessel called the Union, and the defendant had en tered into an agreement with s him for the transport of a cargo of coals from the north of England to the port of London. Five days were to be allowed for clearing the vessel, and for any additional time she might be detained the plaintiff was to be allowed 2/. per day demurrage. The vessel arrived on the 10th of March at Greenwich, where she was detained until the 21st, when she came up to London, she hav ing been entered in the meter's list at Greenwich ; but the meter not having come on board until that day. The plaintiff claimed demurrage for the days the vessel was thus detained. A verdict, however, was entered for the defendant, on the ground that she had not arrived at the port of London according to the terms of the agreement until after she had left Greenwich. Mr. ERLE now moved for a rule to show cause why this verdict should not be set aside, or a new trial granted, on the ground that the defendant was answer able for the delay of the vessel in arriving at the port of London.—The Court refused the rule. Mr. Bond, the newly-appointed kagigustraete ensinqutahree room of D. W. Gregorie, Esq., of police-office, sat with Jr. Jardine at this office this morning. Two little boys named Stanfield and Jones, about 8 years of age, were convicted of stealing fruit in Covent-garden market, and sentenced to six days' im prisonment each. Mr. Jardine said he was deter mined to put a stop to these petty depredations, as complaints were hourly made by the market people. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Robert Hutton, a young man, shabbily dressed, and who looked as if he was famishing, was charged with committing the following daring robbery : Wm. Southwood, shopman to Mr. John Saunders, of No. 54, Regent-circus, tailor, stated that about half-past five o'clock last evening as he was standing by himself in his employer's shop, the prisoner, whom COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Nov. 8. he had for some time observed looking in at the win- IN RE WILLIAM lIENRY BALL. dow, suddenly threw open the shop-door, and rushing The bankrupt was described as a coach proprietor forward for between two and three yards snatched at Kennington-cross, but was better known as the down a great coat from off a peg on which it was hang owner of the omnibuses plying between Clapham, ing, and darted out of the shop with it.

He afterwards forced his way into some of the houses in King's place, Piccadilly, and commenced stricking at every person that came within his reach, and at ength he was taken to the station-house, where on searching him, eleven sovereigns and some loose silver were found in his pocket. The defendant said he was very sorry for what had happened, but he had taken too much wine; he had also lost twenty-seven sovereigns. Mr. Clements, the chief usher of the Court, said the defendant three times previously appeared before that Court under similar circumstances, on each occasion he was fined 51. Mr. MALTBY said he should now fine him 21., which was immediately paid. UNION-HALL. Four men, named Donovan, Hewitt, 'William and John Nelson, were charged with attempting to break into the Duke of Sussex public-house, Oakley-street, Westminster-road. _ _ About two o'clock that morning, the inmates of the Duke of Sussex were aroused on hearing a noise at the rear of the premises. The policeman on duty was informed of the circumstance, and he and another went into the yard and succeeded, after a desperate resistance, in securing the prisoners, in whose posses sion were found a set of housebreaking implements. When taken to the station-house they were all recognised as belonging to a gang of burglars who have infested the neighbourhood for some time. On examination it was discovered that the pri soners had attempted to break into two houses ad joining that of the Duke of Sussex. The prisoners were committed, as reputed thieves, to the House of Correction, for three months each. KINGSTON. A very fine young woman, who stated her name to be Ellen Johnson, and that she was sixteen years old, was brought before Mr. W. B. Jones, the Mayor of Kingston, charged with having attempted to de stroy herself. James Stevens Wiggins deposed that on Monday morning he was going from Ham towards Kingston, and when he arrived at a place called the One-tree, a short distance from the Thames, he heard a noise in the water which attracted his attention, and on going to the bank of the river he saw a human body float ing in the stream, with the head part above water. He immediately jumped into the river, and dragged the drowning person, who turned out to be the prisoner, to the shore. He asked her how she came into the water, and she told him that she had thrown herself in purposely. She at the same time told him her name, and said that family disputes were the cause of her desiring to destroy herself, and fearing from her manner that if she were not prevented she might repeat the attempt, he obtained the assistance of a policeman, by whom the prisoner was taken into custody. The MAYOR asked the prisoner, who appeared quite callous, and who did not evince the slightest regret for the desperate act she had attempted to commit, how she came to attempt self-destruction ? She re plied that she was very uncomfortable at home. Her brothers were constantly abusing her, and her father encouraged instead of checking them in their conduct. She could not live at home any longer, and therefore she attempted to destroy herself, and she would rather do anything than go home again. The MAYOR inquired whether any of the prisoner's relatives were present, and a decent-looking young woman, who represented herself to be her sister, step ped forward, and in answer to questions from the Magistrate, she said that there was no truth in what the prisoner said relative to her being ill used by her brothers. The fact was that she had stopped from home one day rather late, and her father, thinking she had not been in good company, had remon strated with her upon the subject, and pointed out to her the impropriety of her conduct, but instead of listening to what he said she flew into a violent passion, and declared that she would drown herself. She added that the family were willing to receive the prisoner home again. The prisoner said she would not go home any more, for she was sure to be " blowed up" by some of them. The MAYOR said the prisoner did not seem to be at all aware of the dreadful character of the offence she had attempted to commit, and he did not think it prudent to discharge her at present. She was, there fore committed to Kingston Gaol, to give an oppor tunity for her friends to make some arrangement respecting her, with a view to prevent her from making any further attempt on her life. MUNICIPAL. ELECTIONS. FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) POOLE, Nov. 4.—ln the !North-West Ward three Reformers have been returned. In the South-East Ward the Tories did not dare to show fight, and Messrs. Durant, Lankester, and Mullett were returned without opposition. Our Town Council now consists of 18 Reform Coun cillors, three Reform Aldermen, and three Tory Al dermen, the latter of whom go out of office next year, when there will not be a Tory in the whole Council. At the first municipal election the Tories suc ceeded in this borough, by certain means, which have been inquired into and exposed, both in a Court of Law and before a Committee of the House of Com mons, in returning, and subsequently electing as Al dermen, 17 out of the 24 members of the Council. By a lavish expenditure of money in the paying of the rates of paupers, &c., the Tories succeeded at sub sequent elections, until every Reformer was out of the Council, when their extravagant :demands upon the pockets of their fellow townsmen, in the shape of borough rates, and the utter recklessness of their con duct as a body, produced that reaction in the public mind which has ended in ow finding ourselves with only three Tory Aldermen in the Council out of the 24 members ; and they never attend a Council meet ing in the mean time. Our expenditure, and conse qtiently, our rates are lessening, and the better-dis posed of our Tory townsmen confess that public matters are now managed as they ought to be, the Council studying the interest of the Many instead of that of the Pew. The Duchess of Sutherland and Lady B. L. Gower were expected to arrive on Saturday at Ravensworth Castle on a visit to Lord and Lady Ravensworth, and thence her Grace intends, after passing a few days with the Earl and Countesstof Carlisle, at Castle Howard, to proceed to Trentham Hall, Staffordshire. MAINZER'S " MUSICAL TIMES."—In looking over a newspaper, be it metropolitan, be it provincial, a person often meets with paragraphs, headed, " Sing ing for the 1\ fillion.” How many " million" of times this simple expression has been printed within the last three or four months, we can form no adequate idea, but that it has been printed millions of times cannot be doubted. Most of our readers will associate the idea with the name of Mr. Joseph Mainzer. This gentleman has a musical reputation, and has exerted himself for some time past in a laudable and energetic manner to create a taste for music among the millions. We are told that he has been eminently successful ; and we rejoice to believe it. There is something so sweet, so soothing, in music; ita tendencies are so refining, so ethereal, so spiritual, so humanising, that we cannot but wish that a taste for the science of sweet sounds were as prevalent as is the capacity upon which such a taste might be engrafted. Holding this opinion, we like to see such a periodical as the Musical Times—the organ of Mr. Mainzer, and the medium through which, to the reading world, he enforces the object of his chosen mission. The Musical Times is published every alternate week, and is well worthy the attention of amateurs.—Bradford Observer. POISONING WITH PRUSSIC ACID.—On Monday, Mr. Wakley held an inquest at the George, Brook-street, Holborn, on the body of John Taylor, aged two years and a half. Mary Taylor, of No. 17, Little Saffron-hill, said she was the mother of the de ceased child, and that on Friday morning last she found him in what she thought a fit on the floor. She immediately took him to the Free Hospital, Greville street, but he died before she reached there. The Co roner—How do you account for the fit? Witness— There were some phials on a shelf in the room , and the child cried f or one of them to play with. I gave him one with a cork in it, and which I thought was empty. The child had it but for two or three minutes, when a daughter of mine, twelve years old, called my attention to her brother, who was on the floor with his eyes fixed. On questioning my little girl, she told me she took the cork out of the phial, and that deceased drank a portion of something that wasin it. A Mr. Vinn, teacher of languages, was in the habit of coming to my house, and leaving phials on the mantel-shelf. The phial in question was one of them. Mr. T. W. Harle, one of the surgeons to the Greville street Free Hospital, said that when deceased was brought to him he was quite dead. The pupils of the eye were dilated, the muscles relaxed, and the lips black. The mouth emitted the odour of prussic acid. Mr. B. 'Walker, one of the medical officers of the Marlborough-street Dispensary, said Mr. Vinn was in the habit of getting medicine there, ac cording to a prescription entered in the books by a predecessor of witness s. The entry pre scribed thirty-two drops of prussic acid, and which Mr. Vinn asked for and obtained about a week ago. No label was put on the phial that con tamed it. Mr. Vinn 'was in the habit of taking un usually large doses of prussic acid. The Coroner—lt ix monstrously imprudent to send out such a deadly poison as prussic acid without a label indicating that it was poison. A Juror—ls there no law to compel medical men to do so ? Coroner —There is no law to Icompel a chemist to label a deleterious dryg, though he should send.out a hundred weight of it. Verdict ' --Accidental death.

PAUL'S CATnEnuAL.-7—Amongst, the recent im provements at St. Paul's Cathedral, a material one has been effected at the north entrance, by the erection of additional doors on the outside of the massive doors under the portico. The addition has been made to prevent the continual opening and shutting of the ori ginal, doors, which are exceedingly heavy, every time a visitor required admission, when Divine service was not being performed. The new doors are but a few inches from the old ones ; they open outwards, and close with a spring, and there are two panes of glass in each door, so that the door-keeper may see the ap proach of persons desirous of being admitted. CORN RETURNS, ,~~.. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Newport, Oct. 31, 1842. SIR—An old subscriber to your paper would be obliged if you would publish in The Sen at your ear liest convenience (if you can do it without putting you to any expense), the average price of wheat, bar ley, and oats for about the last six or seven years ; he thinks it would be very useful to other parties as well as himself in the purchase of landed property, as the average price of grain would be a guide. By doing so you will confer an obligation on Sir, yours truly, AN OLD SUBSCRIBER. [At the request of our Correspondent we give the subjoined state of the averages for the last ten years, according to a return made to Parliament by the In spector-General of Imports and Exports, previously stating that the highest averages dur►ng the present century were in the years 1800, 1801, 1810, 1812, and 1813, when the prices of wheat were respectively as follows :-113s. 10d., 119 s. &1., 106 s. 5d., 1265.6 d., 109 s. 9d.] Year. Wheat. Barley. Oats. 1832 1833 1834 1835 1836 1837 1838 1839 1840 1841 THE MA RKETS.-(YESTERDAY.) COLONIAL. STJGAR.—The market for British Plantation is firm, but only about 400 hhds have been sold at previous rates. The public sales have contained 3,707 bags Bengal, 2,152 bags Manilla, 619 chests 30 barrels Rio (chiefly brown), 451 casks and 178 barrels Cuba Muscovado. Nearly the whole of the Bengal found buyers, but went off without spirit at 63s to 68s for low to middling white, 57s to 62s 6d for middling to good greyish yellow, and 48s 6d to 54s 6d fa. mid to fine bright brown, being for the lower sorts in some instances rather cheaper. All the foreign found buy ers : mid to good brown Manilla (but damp and heavy) at 15s to 15s 6d ; a few lots, 16s to 16s 6d ; a small portion very low to mid white Rio, at 18$ to 22s ; low brown to . , good yellow ditto, 14s 6d to 17s ; and good brown to fine yellow Cuba Muscovado at 16s to 19s 6d, being for the whole comparatively cheap ; the latter description was all taken for refining in bond, and the former for export. The quan tity of British Plantation landed last week at the East and West India Docks was 1,709 hhds, 107 tierces, and 426 barrels. The stock of British Plan tation, in the port of London, is 21,620 hhds, 3,024 tierces, being rather more than but year. The stocks of nearly all the other descriptions are also more limited. The home consumption this year has gene rally increased, but the export in many instances ex hibits a decrease. COFFEE.-108 casks British Plantation, 64 bags Ceylon, 297 packages East India, 198 packages 67 casks Rio have been offered by auction , nearly the whole of the former was taken in at 104 s to 105 s for good and colory Berbice ; fine to fine fine ord Ceylon sold at 65s to 82s 6d ; good and fine ord pale and brown Manilla at 43s 6d to 48s ; and good ordi nary ungarbled Mocha at 555 to 60s. The whole of the Rio (in chests) was taken in much above the value, namely, at 48s to 58s for fine ordinary colory quality, and one lot inferior at 425; those in bags sold at 30s 6d to 33s for good ord mixed to fine ord, which are about former rates. The import generally is rather less than at this time last year, but we must except foreign sorts. The consumption of East India has increased, but that of British Plantation and Po reign shows a falling off, probably on account of the ncreased consumption and the cheapness of Tea. TEA.—The accounts by the Overland mail have made the markets a little firmer, as prices at Macao were rather higher. The stock here, however, is too large to justify any marked rise. Rum.—The quantity landed last week at the East and West India Docks was 1,396 puns 145 hhds. The stock in puns exceeds that of last year, but in hhds it is rather lower. SPICES.-800 chests of Cassia Lignea (mouldy) offered at auction all fbund buyers at 80s 6d to 89s for mid to good mid quality, and broken at 77s to 795, which are comparatively fair prices.
