Hi s defence of Dresden was miraculous; l .lorea u was repulsed and killed ; Bernadotte and Di Borgo precipitately retreated ; the results of the battle. field of Leipsic are well k nown, and Pozzo di forgo, with the Crown Prince of Sweden, finally quartered at Frankfort. In the begi nn i ng of January, 1814, all Europe being then in its most violently agitated state, Pozzo di forgo, was dis patched from the c on f erences at Frankfort, to beara mission t• England, to convince th e P r i nce Regent of the just intention, of the Emperor Alexander, and farther to obtain the appoint ment of Lord Castlereagh, then Foreign Minister to the head quarters of the allied Soverei gns , to j oin their councils. 1119 inveteracy against Napoleon broke out fiercely in his interviewi with Castlereagh, who on one occasion intimated the expedite ency of restoring the Bourbons to the throne of France. " You know, my Lord," replied the Corsican, " that the Sovereigns I represent are unwilling to pledge them selves to distant views. Let us first determine on the removal of Napoleon. When we have effected his abdi cation, the cry of Bourbon' will do the rest." Hi s m i ss i on prospered. At a dinner party given in honour of the agent of Russia, by Lord Castlereagh, his Lordship, on proposing the final toast, said to his guest, " Well, my dear Pozzo, all is settled ; I accompany you, and am the bearer of an , autograph letter from the Prince Regent to your Emperor. Vie shall stet in concert." During the entire campaign of 1814 Pozao di Borgo re mained in close attendance on the person of the Russian Em peror. His enmity to Napoleon created every chance towards his overthrow; overtures for peace proposed by the tottering idol of Chatillon, were refused by his advice: Caulincoart s pacific offers were frustrated by 'Di Borgo : the attempt by several military men of high rank to induce Alexander to treat with the Regency instead of the Government, and wh ich the friendly f ee li ng of Russia almost prompted him to agree to, would doubtless have been alloweJ., had not Pozzo di forgo been at hand, and represented to the irresolute Potentate, that " the Regency was in fact only another term for Napoleon, and that he whose heart sincerely' desired the tranquillity of Europe, must insist on the total abrogation of the imperial power, and the removal of Na poleon." T wo w h o l e h ours t hi s conference l aste d Pozzo di Borgo only quitted the Emperor on an exacted promise that no negotiation should be entered into. No sooner had he ob tained that assurance than he hastened to the Provisional Ministers, and addressing Talleyrand, cried in the fulness of his joy, " My dear Prince, not only have I slain Napoleon political:y, but I have just threwn the last shovel' ng of earth over his imperial corpse." The Senate having proclaimed the abdication of Napoleon, and the recal of the Bourbons, Pozzo di forgo was appointed by the Allied Sovereigns to acknowledge in their names, at Lon !on, the accession of Louis XVIII. to the Throne of France. I'ozzo di Borgo nevertheless still turned a doubtful and un quiet look towards Elba, and scanned in imagination every movement of the illustrious prisoner ; and in the Assembly vehemently i iressed fur his removal to some more remote and obscure corner of the globe. The unarmed. though captive, lion broke his cage of rushes. The announcement of his dis embarkation for France was met with amazement by every member of the Congress, except Di forgo. His cool com ment on the fearful news was—" I know Napoleon—he will maroli on Paris. Our work is before us. Not a moment is to be lost. He must be faced by every attainable farce, and the hat fragments of his power and popularity buried in the dust of deeat."

COURT OF CHANCERY, Feb.. 19. The Lord Chancellor sat in Lincoln's Inn-hall t4-day. PEYTON V. HUGHES. This case stood in the paper to-day by special appointment, for the convenience of the Solicitor -General. The case came before his Lordship upon the re-hearing of a decree pro nounced by Lord Cottenham. The question in the cause arose under the will of an old gentleman named Houston, who died in the year 1814, leaving lreehold and personal property to a very large amount. The will was most singularly worded, and the question under it for the considerationyOf the Court now was whether Reynold Peyton, the plaintiff,*3 the eldest son of Elizabeth Peyton. the daughter of the nierie cif the testator, was entitled to the real estates as tenant in.tail, and to the personal property absolutely. Lord Cottenham, upon the case coming on before him, made a decree, declaring that the plain_ tiff was entitled as tenant in tail to the possession of the free • hold estates, and that he had an absolute interest in the per sonal estate. The case now came before the Court upon the re 7 l ,earing of that decree. creditors in general this action was brought, and the Jury found for the plaintiff. MEMOIR OF COUNT POZZO DI COLEMAN V.SHERRARD. This was an action against a policeman for false imprisonment. It appeared that tke plaintiff and de fendant had a squabble in a public-house, in the course of which the defendant received a blow, and there fore took the plaintiff into custody, on the charge of an assault. The inspector on duty dismissed the complaint, and this action was brought for the false imprisonment. The Jury found for the plaintiff, Damages 20s. BORGO. At the remote age of seventy-four, the most subtle of mo dern polif clans, the most acute and practised of diplomatists, has been removed from the busy scenes in which he acted so conspicuous a part. The sudden dispensation of Providence has taken away the political prophet, whose rredictions were almost ever unfailing ; who, versed in all the mysteries of men's motives and their intrigues, pierced with his keen and practised understanding, into the depths of their most hidden measures, with a precision that startled even the profoundest tacticians of Europe.

The insolvent in this case was described as a bank clerk, and also carrying on business as a dyer at Holly-lodge, Beth nail-green, He subsequently carried on business as a publican in Peckham, and the debts appearing in his balance-sheet amounted to upwards of 1,0001. Mr. WOODRUM opposed his application to he discharged, and examined him and several witnesses at great length, from whose evidence it appeared that on the day upon which he was arrested, the Sheriff's officer in whose custody he was go ing to prison recommended him strongly to employ a soli eitor named Buchannan to pass him through this Court, and brought him to that gentleman's office, on his way to pri son. The Learned Counsel strongly reprobated the practice of allowing Sheriffs' officers to become " touters" fur attorneys, and said that Mr. Barrett, the Governor of the Debtors' Prison, ♦ery properly instituted an inves:igation into all the circum stances of the case, and reprimanded the officer for his conduct. The chief grounds of opposition to the insolvent's discharge were that he had not properly accounted in his schedule for a large quantity of household furniture and machinery, &c., used in his business, and that he was taken on a friendly arrest. Mr. Commissioner REYNOLDS said the manner in which the issolvent's balance. sheet was prepared was wholly inexcusable on the part of a person in his walk of life, and he, therefore, should adjourn the case in order to prepare a fresh balance sheet. Mr. COOKE, on behalf of the insolvent, applied to have his bail enlarged. The Learned Chief COMMISSIONER said he could by no means consent to that. It was a very general practice with dip honest insolvents to make up fraudulent schedules and balance sheets when they were out on bail, and run the chance of de ceiving the Court with them, while if they were detected, all they had to do was to get their bail enlarged. He was de termined to stop such practices, and therefore in all cases like the present, he would refuse every application to enlarge the insolvent's bail. Five o'clock p.m.—calling at Bishopbridge, Kirkintilloch, Croy, Castlecarry, Falkirk, and Linlithgow. All the trains will carry first and second class passengers, and the 7 o'clock and 3 o'clock trains from each end will carry third class passengers in addition. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL appeared on behalf of the defen dant, contending that the decree of Lord Chancellor Cottenham was inconsistent with itself, and that the will was void for un certainty. Mr. TINNEY and Mr. HonGsoN were in support of the decree of Lord Cottenham. Fares for the whole distance. Passengers. With Passengers' Trains. Ist I 2d I 3d Carriages, 35s Horses, 15s. Class. Class.

Some interesting details, relative to the excavations which are going on in the kingdom of Naples, with a view to the dis covery of antiquities, have just been communicated to the Academie des Beaux-Arts, by M. Raoul Rochette, the perpetual secretary. The year 1841 has been remarkable for the discovery, in various parts of the kingdom, of medals, the greater part Greek. Amongst them is an entire collection ofgold medals of the Locri ; they are of a small form, and hitherto only a single medal of this kind had been found. As to the excavations which are still going on at Pompeii, they have not been very productive of interesting results for the last two years; probably because the locality is unfavourable ; but important discoveries are expected from the clearing out of ruins of the Amphitheatre of Puzzoli, which has been ordered by the King. The work on this point is going with the greatest activity, under the orders of the Minister St. Angelo. From the portion of the ruins already cleared, it is to be presumed that the remains of one of the most important monuments of architecture in Italy will come to light, and that the ,Royal Mu seum of Naples will he enriched by some fine fragments of antiquity. FASCINATION.—Such is the irresistihle title of Mrs. Gore's newly.edited work. " Fascination !"—a book appertaining to the most fascinating species of existing literature—and the sub ject is as full of fasc►nation as the name. It is the history of a sort of D'Orsay of a hundred years ago—a modern Alcibiades— beautiful. generous, eloquent, and honourable—but unhappily not able to fascinate Dame Folitnne as he does all other dames And their dependents, from the shrewish wife of the little tailor of the Rue St. Honore, upwards. The tale is told with infinite liveli ness, spirit, and truth of painting, and will no doubt attract unusual attention among the class of readers to which this species of corn. position chiefly appeals. His Serene Highness the Duke of Nassau has been pleased to mark his approbation of Sir Alexander Downie's work on the German Waters, by presenting the author with a magnificent ring set in brilliants, accompanied by a letter expressed in the most gratifying and flattering terms. The King of Holland has conferred the decoration of the Oaken Crown on M. Deniere, the eminent bronse.maqufac. turer of Paris. ANECDOTE OF THE LATE DUKE OF CLEVE LA ND.—The late Duke of Cleveland, on the disbanding of the militia, in 1816, had three gentlemen dining with him In th. course of conversation his Grace mentioned that he had bought an entire lettery-ticket, and declared his intention, should it prove a prize, of dividing it amongst the party assem bled. The day of drawing at length arrived, and to his Grace's utter astonishment, the identical ticket proved to be a prize of 20,000/. We need scarcely add that the Duke faithfully per formed his promise to his fortunate guests, who were his two sons-in-law, Francis Forester, Esq., and Mark Milbanke , Esq., and Major Heely,of the West York Militia.—Northern Times. On Friday last, Thomas Cordingley, of Wakefield, boat builder, was brought up at the Court-house, by 51.. Brierley, charged with forging a bill of exchange for 2051. lON., bearing date tt:e 22,1 of August, 1840, and purporting to be the acceptance of one George Turner, of Wakefield, vessel owner, with intent to de fraud Mr. Abm. Wimbla. of Wortleysmoor, timber merchant. The nature of the evidence was conclusive against the prisoner, and he was committed to York Castle for trial at the approaching assizes —York Courant. A party of sportsmen were a short time ago out in the forest of Othe, near Aix, in the Aube, when one of them who was unarmed, and beating for game at a considerable distance from the rest, roused a wild boar. Though taken by surprise, he did not lose his presence of mind, but hal looed to his companions, and determined to keep the beast in view until they came up. The boar, enraged by his shouts, sprung upon his disturber; but having a stout staff in his hand, he struck the animal on the head and stunned him. He then kept his fallen foe down with one hand, while with the other he got a clasp-knife from his pocket, opened it with his teeth, and. stabbing the bear repeatedly with it, killed him before assistance ar ived. The grisly game and its vanquisher were carried horns is triumph. As a bridal party were returning from the church at Epron, in the Calvados, on Thursday, last, after the 'cele bration of the marriage, the men of the company, according to the custom of the country, amused themselves by firing off their guns. This ended most tragically, for one young man lodged the contents of his gun, which was unexpectedly charged with shot, in the bead of a bey eleven years old, and killed him on the spot. COMMISSION OF LUNACY.-011 Saturday the proceedings were resumed before Commissioners Plant, Mur ray, and West, to inquire into the state of mind of Daniel Gundry, Esq. Mr. Sergeant Shee made a powerful appeal to the Jury on behalf of Alr. Gundry, and contended that any eccentricity of manners arose from the haughty . feeling of his client, and the severe treatment he had experienced in the cases of assault which had been preferred against him. The Chief Commissioner, having summed up the evidence, the sine T e h th e e G 2s a th ze o t f te S d ep e t s ., T lE4 ril l n . i ' n ' a li t ‘ tsry, after consulting together, returned a urdict—" That r.

CHRONICLE.—The verdict of the jury delivered to-day in the case of the Bank of England v. Tomkins, has led to some surprise in the City amongst those interested in the Ex chequer B lls affair ; but we are not aware at present that the jury could have had much difficulty in finding for the plaintiffs, as we learn that both Lord Monteagle and Mr. Percival swore directly that the bills in question bore forgeries of their signa tures. We are surprised that the counsel for the defendant should have permitted these functionaries to escape so easily from the witness-box. If a parcel of the spurious bills had been mixed with the genuine, and they had been called upon to select the real from the fictitious, we doubt much if they could have complied with the request. But the claims of the bona fide holders for compensation from Parliament is totally distinct, and remain untouched by this verdict; and Lord Abinger, we understand, stated so distinctly on sum ming up, though the Government have certainly ob tained this advantage, that they will come before Parliamuit with the verdict of a jury in their fa • your in a civil process on the plea of forgery, even if the ver dict should be set aside on a new trial. The bona fide holders have, therefore, more cogent reasons than ever for protesting against the apparent collusion by which Rapallo was allowed to escape, by which they were shut out from all the benefit which must have come out in their favour, either by the exa mination of Rapallo as Queen's evidence in the event of Smith having pleaded not guilty, or from the testimony of other witnesses who must have been adduced against Rapallo if he himself had been brought to trial. In either of these eases the line of examination and discussion must have elicited pwhole truth, and th us d emonstrate d t h at t h e public were aged by the villany of a servant of the Crown, whose crimes had been facilitated by the want of internal regulation and proper supervision. There is some suspicion entertained that this case against Tomkins was concocted b e t ween th e G overnment and the Bank, in order to place the Executive in a position of strength when the subject is brought under the notice of the Legislature. POST.—The case brought on in the Exchequer Court to day by the Bank of England was decided in a manner that every reasonable person would have expected. The Bank ob tained a verdict against the party from whom they received their forgeries, as a matter of course. Mr. Percival proved the fabrication of his signature, as Mr. Marshall does. in ord:- nsry cases, the forgery of those of the Bank cashiers, and the evidence of that gentleman was equally :conclusive and uudisputed. That there are innocent holders of the Exchequer counterfeits we do not deny, and never have done ; nor have we denied that those of the num ber who have acquired their bills under circumstances in no respect calculated to excite suspicion, are entitled to the consideration of Government. But we are firm in the conviction that the indenunfica tion of the really " innocent holders" will in no event Involve the sacrifice of more than an exceedingly small amount of the public money. On the point of law, the summing up, of Lord Abinger is clear. The holders of the forgeries understand now, if, indeed, they have not _done so before, which it seems hard to conceive, that if they are to recover any part of their los ses , it will be as a matter of compensation, or of grace, not of right, and, accordingly, we find that a memorial upon the subject is in contemplation. The defective manner in which the business of the Exchequer Bill-office was conducted, is the only ground upon which indemnification can be prayed. The justification of the forgery is east to the winds; that is plainly a Stock Ex change affair, of which Stock Exchange people must take the consequences, and the lesson is one that will, we doubt not, prove of advantage to them. ADVERTISER.—The scandalous extortion and deception practised upon the poorer class of emigrants, by needy and un principled shipping agents at the outports, and even in the metropolis, has long excited the sympathy and indignation of parties in the City, and, as we doubt not, elsewhere too. Hitherto the difficulty of effectually checking imposition and privation has been sensibly felt by all who have approached the subject. Legislative interference with the shipping interests, or indeed with any other interest, manufacturing or mercal tile, as far as restrictions upon thoir mode of doing business is concerned, is at all times an invidious task; still we rejoice to find that the subject was approached by the late Government with caution, but also with energy, and that a Report of the Colonization Board, just made public by order of Parliament, contains some very important suggestions for insuring fztere comfort and protection to the helpless, and oftentimes unedu cated classes, in search of a home in one or other of our colonies. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF SATURDAY. GLOBE.—The debate on the motion of Mr. Villiers can hardly be expected. to excite much interest either in or out of doors ; for the result of the division that will ensue is already known, and the facts and figures that will be recapitulated are by this time familiar to almost every one. During the long discussions that have oc cupied the past week, there has been little consolation for the people in the speeches of those Members who sit on the Government side of the House ; for the only agreeable things they have uttered have been compli ments to the suffering masses on the patience with which they bear the calamities they endure, and it would seem that this virtue of " patience" i$ one so acceptable in the eyes of the Tories, that they are resolved to leave ample scope for its exercise. While, how ever, the Conservatives appear to fully appreciate the forbearance that has been shown by the peo ple under their late and present distress, there is very little respect shown for any sentiment uttered in behalf of a redress of their grievances. When privation is ialuded to in connection with patience, there .is sure to be an approving cheer from the majority of the House; but when anything is said about " depriving the la bourer of the result of his earnings," or " doing justice to the industrious classes," there is tolerably sure to be no other response than " Oh, oh," from the ma jority of the people's representatives. W e k now t h at patience is, of all virtues, one of the most difficult to practise, and it is one also that ought not to be wilfully pat to the test ; for it should be remembered that it can only last while there is hope, and that disappointment and despair will operate with double effect on those who have endured the most in the expectation of relief being at last afforded them. COURIER—We deem the bringing forward of such a motion as that of Mr. Villiers' last night in the House of Commons, for a total repeal of the Corn-laws, not only a wanton and mischievous waste of public time, but a downright insult to the House itself, as well as to the country whose interests it is expected to protect and promote. On Thursday morning, after three nights' continued and animated debate, the house by an over whelming majority pronounced its decision in favour of the principle of protecting British agriculture by means o f a variable scale of duties, and the very next evening Mr. Villiers has the modesty to submit to it a motion for the total repeal of the Corn-laws, and the consequent abolition of all protection whatever— that is, for rescinding its decision of the day before, and thus completely stultifying itself in the estimation of the country. Highly as the Hon. Member for Wolver hampton may be disposed to rate his powers of per suasion, and strongly as he may be disposed to rely upon the efficacy of his Anti-Corn-law logic, we cannot bring ourselves to think that he had expected to be able to work such an almost instantaneous conversion in the minds of his fellow-legislators on t h e su bj ect o f t h e Corn-laws, as the bringing forward of his motion would seem to imply. We acquit him of that ab surdity, but must hold him guilty of wasting the time of the House, and perverting its forms to the purposes of Anti-Corn-law agitation. It is not, of course, within the range of possibility to suppose that he and his supporters were not fully aware of the fate that awaits the preposterously absurd project they advocate—a project as wildly mischievous as ever the brain of a madman conceived. Their only motive for occupying the attention of Parliament, therefore, must be to gratify the " League," and show the spouters out of doors that red-hot nonsense can also be talked in the House of Commons, not only with impunity, but applause. But, thanks to the good sense and ster ling worth of the people of this country, the supporters of so ruinous and suicidal a scheme are neither numerous nor influential ; and it will require some stronger proof than Mi. Villiers' bare assertion to convince us that the cause he advocates has made, or is making, rapid progress either within or without the walls of Parliament. SLAVERY AND THE BOUNDARY LINE. Extract of a letter from John G. Whittier to Joseph Sturge, dated Amesbury, United States, let Month 31st, 1842:--" By the papers sent by this packet, thou wilt see that we have a good deal of discussion in Congress, in spite of all attempts to shut out the dreaded subject. The Creole case, mentioned in my last, has caused much excitement throughout the country, and has called forth some debate in both Houses of Congress. The general impression in this section is, that the prisoners at Nassau will not be given up to our Government, and that they ought not to be. The news of the late Treaty on the Slave Trade has fallen like a thunderbolt amidst the slavery party : they scarcely know what to say or do in reference to it. The New York Herald, and other prints, charge the whole of the abolition movement here to the machinations of England. I send thee a paper, the Liberty Standard, containing some marked articles. Also the New York Herald of last week, containing the debate in Congress en the presentation of a peti tion from some persons, advising a peaceful dissolution of the Union. This was taking the blustering southerners at their word, as they have all along threatened to dissolve the Union. Adams stated, in presenting it, that he wished the Committee to report against it. Thou wilt seo that thy name is pretty freely used in the debate. Lord Morpeth was present during the discussion. I feel anxious that all difficulties between this country and Great Britain, with the exception of the slave• trade, should be speedily settled. The land-agent in Maine, has communicated a Report to the Legislature of that State, in which he proposes to waive the claims of the State, and accept in lien of that claim another portion of the territory, or rather the navigation of the St. Juhn. I have not yet seen the Report, but it evidently places the matter in a more ad justible form. The Reporter is not yet out; but we are in good spirits ; never was there a time when our principles were w powerfully moving the public mind as at the present. The New York Liberty Convention on the 19th, numbered from SOO to 1,000 delegates. Stanton writes me that it was a glorious meeting. Charles T. Torrey has been tried as an incendiary in Maryland, and acquitted on the ground that he had not dis tributed anti-slavery publications an the State. Thou and I narrowly escaped a ten years sojourn in the Maryland peniten tiary, for distributing books, &c., in Baltimore ;• I should scarcely risk it again. , ' A singular custom exists to this day in Wales amongst the lower orders, If John Thomas has a son named David, he is called David John, abd not David Thomas—after the Christian name of his father.

This was a petition that the Accountant-General might be directed to pay to the petitioner, Sarah Burridge, upon trusts of indenture, dated the 22d of November, 1823, all dividends which had accrued due, or hereafter might accrue due, upon the sum of 5,992/. Three per Cent. Annuities, standing in her name. Mr. Simpkinson appeared for the petitioner. 'rhe facts of the case have already appeared in The Sun. The Learned Counsel said that by the original settlement it appeared that the money was settled, after the death of Mr. Row, the first husband, upon Mrs. Row, for her life, for her separate use, independently of that first husband ; but there was no provision fur separate use in case she should marry again. She had since intermarried with Mr. Burridge. No settlement was executed between them, in consideration of the marriage, but it appeared that antecedent to the marriage, by a deed' of the 22d of November, 1825, Mrs. Burridge as• signed over her life-interest to pay the dividends which might accrue to her during her life, to her separate use,and there was a clause in the deed restraining anticipation. By the decree made at the hearing in Elilary 'term, it was declared that Sarah Burridge was entitled to the dividends arising from this money for her life. The VICE-CHANCELLOR—Did she execute that deed merely with reference to the possibility of marriage in general? Mr. SIMPEINSON—The deed states that the sum might thenceforth belong to the petitioner for her separate use, frea from control of her said husband." The VICE-CHANCELLOK—What is the meaning of "her said husband ?" Mr. SIMPKINsow—Mr. Row was then alive. Tho VICE-CHANCELLOR—How could she effect anything under the first settlement during the joint life of her first hus band and herself ? Mr. SisirKiNsoN—l think she could not effect anything. It was to be paid to her for her life, and during the life of her first husband it was to be for her separate use; but there seems to be no declaration which would enable her to assiga it. The VICE-CHANCELLOR—Th6n the second deed would not appear to be worth much. Mr. SIMPKINson— The second husband concurs. The Vic E-UHANCELLOR—If he consents that she shall re ceive it to her separale use, I can have no objection ; other wise the suit would have been improperly framed. Mr. COOPER said he had appeared for the parties who were adverse to the plaintiff at the hearing of the cause, and he had no objection to offe r to the prayer of the petition. The Vic E.CHA CELLOR—Is it desirable to have an affidavit verifying the second deed? The SOLICITOR for the plaintiff said that when the sum had been carried over, a proper settlement would be made by the Mr. SIMPKINSON—The better way would be to have the sum transferred. _ The VI'E:EHANCELLOft—This second deed appears to me a most unintelligible document.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, Feb. 19. Up to the time of cur going to press the Court had dis posed of three cases, all of which were of the most uninterest ing description. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Feb. 18. JOHNSTON AND CO. V. CHANDLER. This was an action to recover back 24,0001., alleged to; have been advanced to the defendant by the plaintiffs, who are extensive corn-dealers in Bush lane, upon supposed assignments of corn, made by the defendant. The case opened on behalf of the plaintiffs, was that they had en trusted the management of their business, in a great degree, to a person named Burton, a clerk in their employment, who had de ceived them, and it turned out eventually that they had been de frauded out of 80,0001. It was alleged that the defendant received advances to that amount, for which the plaintiff: received no value, but it was not asserted that the defendant had any knowledge of the frauds practised by Burton. After the case had proceeded for some time, a consultation took place between the parties, and a verdict was taken for the plaintiff for 4001. SATURDAY. (Sittings at Nisi Prius at Guildhall, before Lord ABINGER and a Common Jury.) BOWIE V. JURY. Mr. Platt, Q. C., with Mr. C. Jones, were Counsel for Counsel for the defendant. the plaintiff, and Mr. Erb., Q. C., w i t h M r . B ar stow, were This was an action of trespass for the alleged illegal distress, by the defendants, of several weights which were taken from the shoo of the plaintiff, who is a grocer and tea dealer in Shoe-lane. It appeared that the defendant was one of the inquest-jury of St. Bride's, whose duty it was to superintend the weights, scales, and measures of that parish. That the per sons composing that jury had agreed amongst themselves to ap portion the duties of the parish, and with that view divided themselves into three sepearate bodies, consisting of four each, who were, by mutual arrang ement , to inspect the weights and measures in the districts allotted to them respectively. and with a view also to avoid the exposure of a number of persons as a jury visiting th e prem i ses o f any t ra d er , and thereby collecting a crowd, or a t tract i ng pu bli c no ti ce , an d t o prevent insufficient weights being secreted. It appeared that six weights were taken from the plaintiff fur being insufficient by the defendant, and three other jurors who had accompanied him, and on being taken to the vestry-room they were weighed in the presence of the plaintiff, when it was ascertained that one of them was correct, and the remaining five were detained. The respective weights and differences of these detained were as f illows : One ounce weight deficient four grains; 2 oz. weight deficient a similar number of grains. Another weight of 2 oz., deficient 6 grains. A quarter of a lb. weight deficient two grains ; and the fifth weight, being also a quarter of a lb., deficient seven grains. Lord Auiscea, in summing up, commented strongly upon the conduct of plaintiff's attorney, who had brought separate ac tions against the four jurors who had seized the plaintiff's weights, and told the Jury that although the Inquest. Jury would have been fully justified in seiz;ng any weights, however trivial the deficiency might have been, yet in the present case there should be a verdict given for the plaintiff, inasmuch as the defendant and the three jurors who accompanied him, could not legally exercise privileges vested in the whole jury. The Inquest Jury should have all acted together, and the entire twelve should have been present when the seizure had been made; otherwise their acts, as a jury, were not warranted by law. A verdict was returned for the plaintiff, with One Farthing damages. MOORE V CLA AKE. This Inas an action torecoie;;;;pensation in damages for an alleged Kprow egedpinrssy and another gentleman appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. M. D. Hill for the defendant. It appeared that the plaintiff is a publisher, carrying on business in St. Martin's-lane, and that in the year 1839 he had published a portrait of the celebrated mare Beeswing, of which the price was 15s. each coloured, and 7s. 6d. plain. The m lf had publi s h e d of Beeswing, de fendant is the printer and publishe r of a cheap weekly publica • tion, called Torn Spring's Life in London, and in that work he had given what he had desc ribed as a portrait of a distin uished and successful racer, as a winne r of the Derby, called taken oro from a ti o that p which he he Coronation, a and as one strong proo f of that fact, the re presentation of Coronation, although a hors e, bore the indica tions of the wood oii which,hisethe plaintiff complained, was cut of a mare, and that the original was Beeswing. In support of this statement several engraver s an d pa i nters were tailed as witnesses , all . e f o whom sa id that in their h opinion the drawing for t wood -cut of Coronati on had been copied from the plaintiff's portrait of Beeswing. They, however, added, that the of only vari ances b etween the two portraits were a reversingthe positi on o f t h e head of the animal, and in the back ground for whil st i n the origi nal the bath - ground wa s a view of : the country, that in the copy presented the representati t onoa grand stand and figures. Mr. HILL, on the part of the defendant, contended first that there had been no proof of damag_ ving been sustained; and secondly, he would put it to thev_J_uer.ayl,to consider whether any sporting gentleman, or any.indi id wish g to possess the char him self of a portrait of Beeswing,charge for which, let them remember, was 15s. and 7s. 5a., would buy a work of such manifold inferior merit as a cheap weekly Publication. Lord ABINGRR left it to the Jury to say whether, in their opinion, there was not such a difference between the two por traits as to enable them to say that the one was not a piracy of the other, and then, if there were not such a var i ance, whether they considered that an damaget. had been sustained by the plaintiff, and if so, to what amount. The JURY returned a vetdiet for the defendant. Amongst the witnesses e xamine :t on the part of the plaintiff were Messrs.

A short account of the case of Mr. Eliason, on his applica cation to be admitted to bail, appeared on Thursday, and we now furnish some additional particulars, with an analysis of the schedule filed by that gentleman for public inspection. The schedule exhibits debts in the aggregate to 7,5581. 10s. 441., of which sum 967/. 18s. 6d. are stated to be without consideration, and 253/. 18s. 6d. more than once entered, leaving the bona fide debts 6,336/. 13s. 10d. There are 152 creditors and 2 debtors. The debts owing to Mr. Eliason are 1301. The general ba lance-sheet, which begins from the earliest debt in the sche dule,s.hows the sums derived from the theatre, and the expen diture of the same. Three sums are mentioned in the account of 7,5001. 8,000/., and 3,00(.1., the last of which was received from July to October last, from the Concerts D'Ete and D'Hiver, at Dury-lane Theatre, the nightly rent of which place was 231. The insolvency of Mr. Eliason is ascribed to three circumstances, in the following words :—" The cause of my insolvency is the heavy amount expended in decorating and lighting the Drury-lane Theatre for conducting the Con certs D'ete and D'Hiver, and to being robbed by my check and money-takers, two of whom I prosecuted." The irhol vencv is further attributed to the heavy rent the insolvent paid for the theatre. The creditors are princidally composed of persons connected with the thea-trical profession, including a number of musicians, for balance of salaries. The insolvent was called, and ordered to find bail. Mr. Simpson, of the Albion Hotel, Great Russell-street, and Mr. John Lewis, Attorney, of Arundel-street, were the proposed sureties. The Court accepted them as sureties for 1,1001., and the dis chaige was ordered to the 22d of March. Mr. Eliason was enabled to perform the same evening at the London Tavern. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. Charles Peglam, a respectable looking youth, was brought up on a warrant by Percival, a City officer, to answer the fol lowing complaint, which, in its detail, is singular. The pro secutor, Daniel Nagger, of 59, Gray's-inn-lane, stated that he is a cab-driver. On the day named in the warrant he had " a fare," a gentleman he had since understood to be a Captain Welch. Witness was near Furnival's-inn, when the defendant thrust his hand through the glass of his cab, and the damage done was 16s. ; but that was not all, he (witness) had lost four days' time, because the summons taken in the first instance was not obeyed. Alderman WOOD—How did this happen? Prosecutor— Why I hear that he put his hand in to serve the copy of a writ on the gentleman. His hand was cut terribly. I shuddered. Mr. Thompson, of 116, Long Acre, came forth to resist what he deemed the exorbitant demand of His. He admitted that the glass had been broken, and he was ready to put a glass in. The chargelwas for plate glass windows—what busi ness had cab-owners to have plate glass windows ? The Alderman said, that in the first place there had been a contempt of summons ; hence a warrant was gronted ; then an attempt had been made to diminish what appeared to be a just demand. The defendant acted under instructions, and those who employed him were responsible for the consequences. After further observation, the magistrate said, I award that 16s. be paid for the damage done, and 16s, for the four days' loss of time. I cannot help saying I think that the matter might have been settled on she part of the defendant in a better way. MARLI3OI?()UGH-STREET. Mr. George Bowrer, bookbinder, 213, Oxford-street, was summoned before Mr. Hardwick, for assaulting Jane Magrath. The complainant, who had her arm bound up, said she was ser vant to a lady named Valleville, who resided in Norfolk-street, Park-lane. Her mistress had left three books with the defen dant to bind, and the books were sent home during her mis tress's absence from town for a few days. The morning after the books were left at the house, the defendant came there and demanded their return. Complainant stated that her mistress was not in town, and she could not give them up without permission of her misteess. The defen dant then knocked violently and repeatedly at the deor, insisting loadly on being admitted for the purpose of taking away the books. Complainant, who had previously answered the de fendant from the area, went up stairs and opened the door. The defendant tried to push past her, and complainant being in the house alone, and not liking to allow a stranger to go into the rooms, made an attempt to stop him. The defendant forced his way with such violence that he jammed complainant's arm between the door and the wall, and bruised it severely. Complainant immediately went out, shut the street door and locked it, while she went in search of a policeman. Having found one, she returned to the house, and seeing the defendant getting out of the window with the books in his possession, she gave him into custody. The defendant assured the Magistrate he was a most respect able tradesman. The complainant's mistress called upon him and left three books to be bound, and as she mentioned some thing about receiving shortly a set of Voltaire's works from France, he had an impression that he should lose his money. lie however, did the books and sent them home. The next morning, being irritated at receiving a notice from a debtor that his debt would be paid only at the rate of 10s. in the pound, and fearing the work he had done for the lady might prove an addition to his losses he went to ask for payment. Being told the lady was out of town for a few days, he had his previous impression very much strengthened, and he then insisted on having the books back. The maidservant opposed his entrance and a little scuffle ensued, but he was quite unconscious that her arm was injured. The maid-servant, however, ran into the street, having first locked the street-door, and this causing him some alarm, he made an attempt to get out at the window, having as he pissed through the library, hail an opportunity of regain ing possession of the books. He had worked for gentlemen and for magistrates, and he could assure the gentlemen on the bench that he was considered to be a most respectable trades man. The complainant's charge for book binding was stated to be 225. The books were valued at Si. Mr. HA anwicK said he had not heard a sing'e word from the defendant which in the slightest degree justified the most extraordinary outrage he had committed, and he should, there fore, put on the highest - penalty—namely, 51., or send the de fendant to prison for a month. The defendant paid the fine. As soon as the money was paid, Madame Valleville said she expected her solicitor to have attended, but she had just been informed that he was not in town. It was her intention to have carried the case into a higher court. Mr. IlAanwicx said this ought to have been stated to him before he gave his decision.—Mad. Valleville said her servant had been much injured and had incurred doctor's expenses, be sides having to pay a person to do her work. Something in the shape of compensation was surely due to the girl. Mr. HAROWICK said he could not now alter his decision. As he had no power to give the girl any part of the fine he should order her to be paid a sovereign out of the poor box. STREET HOBBERY.—Mary Ann Moran was charged with stealing a basket containing millinery, wlrth 81., from a little girl named Al'Mahon. It appeared that the little girl was in the service of Mrs. Saunders, dress-maker, 5, Little Argyll street, and that she was sent on the 24th of December with the property in question, to a lady named Darby, living at Dowgate-hill. The prisoner met the child, and tempted her with the offer of a shilling to leave the basket with her, un der pretence of sending her with a message to Bond-street. Information of the robbery having been given to the police, one of the constables succeeded in taking her into custody a week or two ago. The prisoner was fully committed. CLERKENTVELL. John Lewis, aged 13, was charged with robbing his master, Mr. Ellis, a surgeon, in Holborn. The prisoner was introduced by his father to the prosecutor about two months ago, and Mr. Ellis being in want of such a youth, took him into his employ, the father as.uring him that his son was one of the most innocent children In London, but shrewd and intelligent. With these recommendations the pro secutor was of emirs* highly pleased, and believing them strictly true, he at once reposed the highest 'confidence in the accused, who immediately commenced a system of plunder, which he carried out up to the day of his appr.hension, when sundry hills were delivered against Mr. Ellis for which the pri soner had had the money to pay. This necessarily led to a further investigation. Mr. Ellis said, that since he had given the prisoner into cus tody lie had ascertained that the prisoner had been six or seven times in prison. Mr. GREENWOOD —Is that so, boy? Prisoner—Not quite so often as you have been told. Mr. GKEHNvvoon—How often do you say? Prisoner— Perhaps two or three. That boy (pointing to a dirty looking urchin) told me how to prig. " Me !" exclaimed the boy, " what a lie." Mr. GREENWOOD (to the last mentioned promising youth) —What do you know about the prisoner ? Bey—Why we've been we ve been to the mill together only twice. Mr. GREENWOOD—What for? Boy—Once for picking np seventeen shillings. I forgot what for was the other ; but I know he has been in quod six times. Mr. GREZNwOOD committed the prisoner for trial. Charles Andre Pozzo di Borgo was born Bth March, 1768. The Corsican family of Pozzo, from which he sprang, honour ably ranks among the first nobles of that island, and its hau.thty nobles inhabited for centuries a small castle called Montichi, among the mountain fastnesses. In modern times the race of Pozzo di Borgo established themselves in the village of Pozzo di Borgo, within a short distance of Ajaccio, and in 1775, when Corsica was united to France, were by that treaty entitled to all the privileges enjoyed by the aristocratic orders. The education of young Pozzo di Borgo was entrusted to an Abbe, but earthly wisdom appears to have occupied his inir.d more than spiritual, and the scholar's political powers blos somed at an early age. When the French Revolution burst with volcanic violence over Europe, Corsica was included in the shock, and shaken by the mighty dissension. The families of the island split themselves into two factions. The patriotic party had at their head Paoli and the youthful Pozzo di - Borgo : the repub lican faction mustered Bonaparte, Arena, and Salicetti. From the very commencement of the Revolution, young De Borgo was active in the agitation, and he began his diplomacy early. Louis XIV. having convoked the nobility of Corsica, to draw up at Ajaccio a statement of the islanders' complaints and demands, Pozzo di forgo, being then only in the first year of his majority, received the appointment of principal Secretary to the Assembly. Subsequently deputed by his countrymen, he bore their address of congratulation and fraternity to the National Convention at PariviativiOras &sally chpsep to nr.preserit the province of Ajaccio in the legislative body of France, formed after the dissolution of the Constitutional Senate. His next turn in the political labyrinth was an impo'tant step; he became a member of the Diplomatic Committee under the Pre sidency of Brissot. It was in this school that Pozzo di forgo studied his early views of diplomacy, a school which contained all the elements of Republicanism in itself, and which, with a policy entirely novel to Europe. pursued in its foreign depart ment the revived spirit of ancient Rome, that treated all kings and potentates with the haughtiness and arro4ance of superla tive national greatness. At this period Pozzo di Borgo, when he ascended the rostrum, which was, perhaps, but seldom, de livered his speeches in the declamatory and bombasticatyle com mon to the younger orators of the Revolution. One of them, which we have b4ore us, being a harangue delivered (16th July, 1792) on the question of involving France in a general war, is a fierce attack upon absolute government. The Legislative Assembly dissolved, Pozzo di Borgo hastened to Corsica, and soon after his return, beg an , w ith P ao li, t o agitate the establishment of the national independence ; he began to spread the fire and raise the mountain-cries. For these measures he was impeached by Salicetti, by whom he and Paoli were summoned to appear at the bar of the Convention, and answer to the formal accusation of forming systems and projects for separating Corsica from France. The seeds of deep-planted enmity from this moment sprang up between Poszo di Borgo and Bonaparte—that irreconcileable hatred, which, as will be afterwards seen, exercised more influence than is generally suspected upon the events of 1814. The decree of the Convention reached Paoli and Pozzo di Borgo among the mountains at Carte, the capital. They knew the danger of diso bedience, but the popular voice was too mighty. The as sembled masses from the mountains unanimously passed reso lutions charging Paoli and Pozzo di Borgo to continue the ad ministration of their departments, without paying any respect to the Convention. The resolutions were signed by 1,200 per sons. This Corsican manifesto of the bold mountaineers, which of course shut out all thoughts of amicable adjustment with the French Government, was determined to be upheld sword in hand ; though the port itself of the town was hotly invested by the French, under the command of the very Bonaparte whose name the insurgents so hated; and though they, rural denizens, had not a tithe to oppose to the invader's battle array. At this critical moment an English fleet appeared before Ajaccio, bearing offers of protection and aid, provided Corsica would place itself under the supremacy of Great Britain. Paoli, commissioned by his countrymen, went on board, the Admiral was met, and a sketch proposed for a new Constitu tion, based on the principles of the Magna Charta of England, which was laid before the National Convention. Paoli proposed Pozzo di Borgo as President of the State Council, and pre sented him, saying—" I will answer for him. He is a m an a s well qualified to guard the interests of a nation, as capable of protecting a mountain-herd, and knows how to repel aggres sion by the argument of arms." Insubordination, animated by the fresh prosperities of the French arms, gained new strength every day, and the scanty forces of Paoli were threatened to be crushed. At length, when it became evident that the tai-coloured standard would soon be raised ever on the towers of Ajaccio, Pozzo di Borgo did not wait to witness the catastrophe. He embarked in an English man-of-war, which bore him to Elba, thence to Naples, and thence again to Elba. The frigate Minerva subsequently conveyed him to England, and he re mained upwards of eighteen months in London, where he enjoyed the honours due to his high abilities, and where, while sojourning, he made acquaintance with many noble French emigrants, which ultimately led to his employ ment in so:ne secret diplomatic -missions, which progressively increased both in number and importance. The year 1798 saw him in Vienna; France had then experie.iced various reverses, except where Buonaparte•was moving. Suwarrow was marching from victory to victory, and during this particular crisis Pozzo di forgo took a most active part in all the diplomatic movements linked with the course of military action. At that time, in the flower °this age, for he numbered only 30 years, he was continually tra versing Germany and Italy, toforward and sustain by his Cabinet intrigues, the warlike preparations of the old Russian Field- Marshal, though his labours were ultimately rendered useless after the defeat of General Massena at Zurich, and he afterwards fixed his abode at the Austrian Cabinet at Vienna. Pozzo di Porgo next entered into the service of Russia, as an avowed and public diplomatic agent. He was now matured by study and experience, and the expertness he displayed in his first essays for the interests of Russia, raised his name high in the political world, and opened to him the path of his future brilliant career. The Emperor of Russia con ferred on him the title of State Counsellor, and when a new coalition was forming against Bonaparte, who had crowned himself Emperor without obtaining the suffrages of the Foreign Cabinets, Pozzo di Borgo was despatched to Vienna specially to consolidate a closer alliance between his adopted Sovereign, and the other potentates who entertained similar views. The Ambassador, however, did not long re main in Germany, but only a few months elapsed. before he re-paired to Italy to represent, as Commissioner of the Crown, his [loyal master in the military operations which the com bined troops of Russia, England, and Naples, were to com mence in Southern Italy. Upon their separation, he returned to Vienna, and thence to St. Petersburgh, where fresh mili tary operations were in progress. Created at this period a Count, and attached to the person of the Emperor as Colonel de la Suite, the Diplomatic Colonel, after the battle of Jena, visited Vienna for the fourth time, ex pressly commissioned to arouse Austria from the lethargy into which she had fallen, since the peace of Presburg. Unsuc cessful here, Alexander ordered his subtle agent to Turkey, who, on the rupture of hostilities, with his oven sword took part in the naval engagement which ensued between the Russians and Turks, and gained for his conduct the first military deco ration. The sanguinary battles between Russia and France being closed by the peace of Tilsit, the Colonel-Count saw clearly that the close intimacy growing up between Alexander and Napoleon would render his services unpleasant and perhaps dangerous at St. Petersburgh ; and although Alexander endea voured to retain him, he obtained a gracious discharge in 1808, and once more went to Vienna, where, during the year 1809, he employed his diplomatic skill energetically during the cam paign. lie subsequently travelled through Syria, and after Smyrna and Malta, sailed from the latter place to England, and reached its metropolis in October, 1810. The British Government welcomed the Count as a valuable acquisition. The Cabinet of St. James's well knew that from him it could learn more important facts in a few hours than through uncertain correspondence and information for as many months elsewhere. The Marquis of Wellesley had frequent interviews with Pozzo di Borgo, and the Count pointed out the vulnerable point in Napoleon's overgrown rower. In 1812 the peace of Tilsit, had, as the Count hail foretold, proved nearly a truce of arms, and the war between France and Russia broke out vit h thatfury, which gave imperial Moscow to ruin. The Musco vite Monarch again sought his confederacy, and before quit. ting London he successfully negotiated a renewed alliance with Britain, and after an interim of five eventful and stormy years, the Count again found himself before the Russian Emperor. The ice of the Beresina had by this time covered the legiens of Bonaparte, but Alexander still saw in the crowned soldier, half-deified in the Cathedral of Notre Dame, the Mars of the age. "My arms have not yet vanquished him ;" said he to Di Borgo, "by the will of the Almighty, by the power of Russia, or the spirit of our ancestors, has he been conquered. Let us remain satisfied with the victory vouchsafed. It is enough." But the wily statesman was moved by no such mer ciful sentiments. " The fallen Colossus," said he in answer, " must be wholly destroyed, or you, in your turn, incur the danger of annihilation from him, if he be allowed time to re cover confidence, and renovate his now paralyzed powers. Crush him in time." At this period the gaining over Bernadotte and his 20,000 soldiers was a high game entrusted to Di Borgo. To Stralsund he hastened, and at length succeeded in inducing the Crown Prince to commence open and active operations by accom panying him to the military Congress at Trachenberg. There met the three most inveterate enemies of Napoleon to " talk of precious mischief," and exult in their anticipated triumph over the unmeshed and disabled lion. Moreau hated in Na poleon the First Consul; Bernadotte the Emperor; and Pozzo di forgo the Corsican, the Consul, and the Emperor, in the man At this rendezvous it was resolved to carry the war to the gates of the French capital, and to attack Napoleon in the very heart of both his power and his weakness. The favourable prospects of these diplomatists brightened. Napoleon filling had still one hope—that of winning the support of Austria. In a confidential interview with Metternich, that Minister promised to obtain for him the co-operation of Aus tria,• under certain conditions, stipulating for his private in terests. Napoleon, unaccustomed to hear the language of demand from any lips except his own, exclaimed— " How much does England give you to play this part ?" The offended Minister bowed in silence ; but not low enough to raise the small hat Napoleon had dropped in the heat of conversation. The Allied Monarchs were waiting with the utmost anxiety at Prague, the decision of the Austrian Court. It was eleven o'clock in the evening, and one mansion contained, in a lower apartment, Nesselrode, Pozzo di forgo, and Hardenberg, whilst in a chamber above were the Sovereigns of Russia and Prussia, where the as sembled parties were surprised by the arrival of a special cou rier with the following laconic epistle to Nesselrode :—" Aus tria is resolved, and puts her tzoops at the disposal of the Allied Powers." The satisfaction may be easily imagined. Pozzo di Borgu's prospects brightened as those of Napoleon decreased. He received a General's appointment, crank he parti cularly coveted, as it enabled him to contribute to the downfal of his countrymen, as well in the field as in the. Cabinet, and i n hi s military capacity he joined Bernadotte, who with 90,000 men, Swedes, Rtissians, and Prussians, was then covering Berlin. Waterloo was won, and Napoleon had quitted his last martial field. Was Pozzo di liorgo content ? no means. Russia had not taken any rrt in the glorious and i:lec.;.Alye action. The shrewd Co rs i can s l ep t not . H e se l ecte d a y oung _Russian offi cer, serving in the Prussian army, and told 'him in co.?ficlence " Alexander must be informed of this victory within eight-a,.. 4- forty hours ; no matter how many horses are killed in the time ; your future fortune may depend on it." Though wounded himself, he immediately followed Wellington to Paris, and resumed his portfolio, as Russian Ambassador at the Court. of the Tuilleries. Talleyrand offered him not only the Mi nistry of the Interior, but obtained for him from Louis XVIII. the dignity of a peer of the realm. On the death of Alexander and the succession of Nicholas, Ncsselrode remained at the head of the Cabinet, and Pozzo di I3orgo continued Ambassador in Paris : he during this peried mana..zed the difficult matters between Russia and Constantino plc, and the excited minds of France on the affair of the Polish tyrannies. After the conclusion of the Oriental war, he was commissioned to visit London, and ascertain the precise state of affairs at the Cabinet of St. James's, and in his first interviews with the Duke of Wellington recalled to memory, after an in terval of eighteen years, many interesting events and per sonalanecdotes. This last appointment to the embassy of Fngland was never theless accepted by Pozzo di Borgo with great reluctance. Debilitated by age and illness, he cherished the hope of closing his earthly career in Paris, a consummation which has just oc curred, and in whose salons, during his last days, he passed the pleasant life of a talented and ennobled man. Pozzo di Borgo was in conversation cold and reserved: his Corsican accent in conversation added to the effects of his wit and satire, which, though not so easy or caustic as Talleyrand's, was more genuine and dignified. His mind, rather than a magazine of anecdotes, was a reservoir of annals, or rather the breathing history of his age. LLOYD'S SHIPPING. LONDON, FEB. 18 —Wind this day at noon S.W.

WAKEFIELD WOOL MARKET, FEB. 18.—There continues to be even less doing in all descriptions of both long and short wools, and prices have suffered a depression of from five to ten shillings per pack from our quotations of this day fortnight. Titans: or Laaus.—Since the Government plan for the settlement of the Corn question has made its appearance, the state of our Cloth Market has become decidedly worse. In fact, every one connected with trade seems to be struck with astonish ment, that after so many mouths' consideration, in place of the Ministers bringing forward a measure such as would tend to give relief to the manufacturing interest, the plan they propose can in reality have no other effect than to render the Corn-law more stringent than before. Confidence in any speedy altera tion for the better is consequently lost, so that although this is the season when considerable purchases are usually made for the home demand for the spring, as well as for shipment, there has not been a fourth of the quantity disposed of this week as is usual at this season ; prices are, in consequence, unremune rative. In the warehouses business is correspondingly dull; the few buyers who have lately been in town have made their purchases with very great caution, and their operations have been very trifling, compared to what they usually are. BRADFORD MARKET, THURSDAY.—We are sorry that we cannot announce the slightest improvement in the demand for piece goods. The merchants appear quite disposed to cease buy ing till they see what relief is to be afforded to the commercial world. Should this continue a few weeks, it will tend to de press the condition of the operatives still more, as the mann facturers are unwilling to produce goods except to order, of which we learn but few have been given out since last Thurs day. Prices are steady. If there is any alteration in the yarn branch, it is for tho worse. Short time is still adhered to, and thus preventing any accumulation of stocks. Prices firm. The demands for all kinds of wool is very limited, every one appearing desirous to use up as closely as possible, seeing no prospect of improved prices being apparent.— Leeds Mercury. SUICIDE OF A MANIAC.—On Saturday even ing an inquest was taken before Mr. Wakley, M.P.. at the Dudley Arms Tavern, harrow-road, Paddington, on the body of Priscilla Pain, aged forty. William Piper, a labouring. • man, living at No. 28, Carlisle-street, Paddington, stated than on the morning of Thursday last, about seven o'clock, he was proceeding along the towing. path of the Grand Junction Canal, when near a bridge, called Gutch's-bridge, he saw something in the water he thought was the body of a female, and pro curing a hitcher, succeeded with it in bringing deceased to the shore. Lugo Button, a painter, of No. 15, Brown-street.who Edgescare-road, said that he had identified the decea s ed, was his sister.
