SPIRIT OF T JOURNALS. The Standard is ready, we suppose, to make affi davit to the truth of the fine story of Lord Grey's last communication to the King. We are to take it on the credit of the excellent character of our contemporary. " We tell the Morning Chronicle (says the Standard) that it is not our habit, and what is more, that the public is aware that it is not our habit, either to fabri cate articles of news, or to give the character and authority of truth to what we have received upon doubtful or suspicious testimony. Having said thu s much, we repeat it, Lord Grey did, in his last com munication to the King, avow his Lordship's deli berate conviction that nothing but the accession of a strong, firm, and moderate Conservative Cabinet, could obviate a revolution of the most disastrous kind." Our Contemporary, as if aware that the whole amount of character for veracity he pro fesses would be required to obtain belief in this, takes care to turn his character to the best ac count. "We allege the fact (he says), once again pledging the character of this Journal for veracity and cautiousness, as the voucher for its truth. We stand certainly before the public, as witnesses sup ported only by our own character ; but then, we stand as witnesses contradicted only by the Morning Chro nicle, resting upon its character, whatever that is. The public will make its award between us, and we are contented to abide by it." Our contemporary knows where his strength lies. Without opposing our cha racter to the character of our contemporary, we might observe, that the story itself is irreconcileable with the character of Lord Grey, and with his subsequent as well as his previous conduct. Our contemporary, however, is better than his word, for he adduces va rious reasons in support- of his evidence. Availing, himself of the light which, after a fifteen years confi dence in Lord Brougham's virtue and patriotism, has suddenly flashed on the Times with regard to his Lordship, our contemporary argues, " If lie be the person capable of such dishonest and paltry trickery as the Times ascribes to. him (If he be ?), Lord Grey must have found him out by this time ; and without the testimony of the Times, the public knows, and Lord Grey must deeply feel, that the Chancellor was one of the conspirators by whose intrigue and treachery he (the late Prime Minister) was removed from office. Can Lord Grey, then, look without alarm—can he even look without some touch of resentment —upon the continuance in power of a set of men that would act with Lord Brougham, or upon the Noble and Learned Lord's accession to the head of the Government ? Yet one or other of these calamities is inevitable, except by the accession of a Conservative Administration." One little circumstance, which ought to go some way as evidence of Lord Grey's opinion with respect to the continuance in power of the set of men alluded to, is that on the question for the second reading of the Irish Tithe Bill, Lord Grey entrusted his proxy to Lord Melbourne. Being such a lover of Conserva tive principles, and such a hater of his late colleagues, Lord Grey ought, according to our contemporary the Standard, to have done one of two things, either not vote at all on the question of the Irish Tithe Bill, or give his proxy to the Duke of Cumberland or Duke of Wellington. But while so intensely conservative, Lord Grey was guilty of the hypocrisy of giving his proxy to the Premier who succeeded him, in favour of what our contemporary terms a revolutionary measure. But we will allow our contemporary to proceed with his argument : " The extinction of the power of the peerage would surely be a revolution, whether that extinction should be virtually ef fected by compelling the House to conform to the conge of the House of Commons under penalty of premunire, or any other penalty, or formally executed by sending the House (to borrow a phrase employed by one of our contemporaries) to share the fate of the Houses of Convocation. In either case, She power cf the House of Lords, in the Constitution, would be extinguished. All must admit such extinction to amount to a revolution ; and Lord Grey's known feeling towards his order would naturally cause him to regard it (and most justly he would so regard it) as a revolution the most disastrous in cha racter—a revolution which would not leave the monarchy three months' tenure, or any property in the country worth one year's purchase. The truth is, that every man in the country now sees that there is no middle course between such revolu tion and a return to conservative principles of government." After this will any one presume to question the story of Earl Grey's conversion to Conservatism ? But some people might be inclined to think Earl Grey's conversion comes a little too late. It is what is called shutting the stable-door after the steed is stolen. But our contemporary is ready to point out the way to en sure victory to the Conservatives. "We do not deny (he adds) that the work of such a return will demand great energy and decision. The rev o l u ti on i sts , t h oug h greatly contemptible in numbers, character, rank, pro perty, and talent, are strong in activity, forwardness, and pretension ; stronger still in the divisions and dis trusts of those who are interested in opposing them— strongest of all in the dishonesty, selfishness, dullness of apprehension, and ill-reputation of most who hold the second and third ranks among the self-elected Con servative leaders." So that if the Conservatives could only obtain 'more talent and reputation and honesty, there might be some chance for them. But as Lord Grey could never doubt that they would ob tain all that they at present are in want of, he advised the King to trust alone to the Conser vatives, and to beware of the treason under the Irish Tithe Bill. But how to account for his Lordship's giving his proxy to Lord Melbourne, having these principles, is about as difficult a problem to solve as how our contemporary of the Times for fifteen years believed Lord Brougham to be in the possession of the highest character, and the utmost virtue—for fifteen years laboured assiduously to extend his reputation, and promote his success, and all at once discovered that Lord Brougham is stained by every vice under Heaven—intriguing, lying, fawning, slandering, be traying, undermining, sacrificing colleagues, &c. &c., are merely a few, flowers of rhetoric culled from one sentence. 'Well, this does certainly appear a strange world, when it is looked at through the spectacles of the Standard and the Times. Lord Grey in the hands of the one, and Lord Brougham in the hands of the other, appear to wonderful advantage.—Morn ing Chronicle. The most flagrant example of injustice i n th e his tory of the British Legislature is the change in the Poor Laws, after the refusal of Parliament even to look into the iniquities of the Pension List. There is, indeed, one law for the rich and another for the poor— one law for those whose luxuries are supplied at the public expense, another law, for those whose necessaries of life are supplied at the public expense. The case of the state pauper and of the parish pauper differed only in this—that the state pauper held his pension at the pleasure of the Crown, and the parish pauper claimed his relief as of right, under an express law : but the weaker title has been upheld in all its infamy and all its fraud ; the state pauper receives his pension, though the parish pauper is to be deprived of his allow ance. Now, whatever may be thought of the .new law, whether it be approved or abhorred, the injustice must be admitted of breaking in on the stronger title while the weaker is upheld as sacred and inviolable, and of dete riorating and embittering the condition of the wretched parish pauper while all protection is thrown around the profligate grants to the sponger on the public. Revert to every argument employed in opposition to interference with the Pension List, and see with how much more truth and force it applies to the case of the paupers. Lord Althorp asserted that the Go vernment should have the power of relieving persons of station in distress, and contended that it was unj ust to take away from any man what wa s given t o according to law. He protested against invading the state paupers' legal right, even though t h ey should happen to possess large properties besides their pen sions. Further, it was argued that the custom of re ceiving, and the expectation of receiving according to custom, created a claim which it would be a breach of faith to disallow. All this reasoning was false in the case of the pensioner, who held his grant during the Royal pleasure ; but if truth would have rendered it a good argument fer the pensioner, how irre sistible should be its force for the parish pauper. The pauper has had a legal light to his allowance, he has been accustomed to receive it, and has ex pected to continue to receive it according to custom, and law to boot. But what have availed these consi derations in the case of the parish pauper, which have been allowed such weight in that of the state pauper as to make justice kick the beam ? The Central Board his power to stop the allowance granted according to law, and expected to be continued according to cus tom. How much has been said of the cruelty and wrong of disappointment where it would work the pri vation of comforts or luxuries—how little has been thought of the cruelty and wrong of disappointment where it will work the privation of the absolute neces• series of life, and leave only the choice of want or the rigours of a workhouse. Who does not remember the heroics of that personification of Don Quixote, Mr. Hawkins, followed by as apt a representative of Sancho Panza in Mr. Strutt, at the thought of dis turbing the vested rights of the pensioners, and the former gentleman's scornful renouncement of the " odious dirty job " of investigating the fitness of grants, and recalling such as should be found un merited ? And compare this with the voluminous inquisition into the workhouse fare, and the enormous new power created to sit in judgment on the paupers' claims, and to measure out and weigh with niggard and reluctant hands the absolute necessaries of exis tence, so that the unfortunate shall live indeed, but no more. To pry into the claims of Lady A. or Miss B. would have shocked the delicate sentiment of Mem bers, but they have no such refined objections to over hauling a beggar's wallet, and holding a scrutiny on his crusts, and judging whether there is an ounce more than life requires, or a fragment which may give a relish to the meal exceeding the laws of political economy. Who that has waded through the poor law report and evidence has not been struck by that pas sage where Mr. Chadwick receives a shock from tasting the workhouse beer ? All the political eco nomy of the man staggered under its strength. He was like the queen in the Arabian Nights, who swooned upon tasting a cream tart made after a parti cular receipt—the potency of the beer discovered to him all the enormities of the poor law admini stration. But what a mission was this ? What a business for a well-fed gentleman to go about, sip ping the beer of paupers, and doubtless finding it too strong and too good if it did not screw up his features with the agony of verj nice. Now let us suppose that the order of justice had been pur sued, that reform had commenced with the state paupers. A commission should, according to the course of proceeding adopted towards the little paupers, have investigated the circumstances of the pensioners and their grants ; and Mr. Chadwick, in stead of going into fits upon tasting beer ab6ve the strength he thought proper for paupers, should have had the more agreeable task of visiting the houses of Honourable and Right Honourable Personages, and should have begged leave to examine their cellars and larders, and swooned upon tasting claret of a fine bouquet, or hock that smacked of age. Then he should have proceeded to the kitchen, and turned pale at the sight of the stewpans, and groaned in the spirit of Hume at the venison on the spit. We should properly in this case have had a comparison instituted between the style of living and the grants to these people on the score of indigence, and no one would have objected to a rigorous application of the rule, withdrawing allowances from all but the aged and im potent—we mean from all to whom pensions have been granted without just claims. The pauper, says the Chancellor, glories in his dependence. So does the pensioner, the pension being treated as a badge of Royal favour. " The law of nature," proceeds the Chancellor, " says that a man shall support his child, that the child shall support his aged and infirm parent, and that near relations shall succour one another in distress." These propositions are put forth in advocacy of the new poor law, but are they not as sound with reference to the pension list ? When we look over the names of state paupers connected with the noblest and most affluent houses, do we not feel that near relations should suc cour one another ? and more, that a lord should sup port his wife ? But when the pension list was dis cussed, where slumbered these truths, these maxims of morality and private obligation ? Where they are most applicable, they are unapplied. But so it is, that this Ministry has set forth the rigour of its eco nomy, by exercising it on paupers, just as beggars pinch their poor children's flesh instead of their own, when they wish to raise a cry and a look of pain which may bring pence to their pockets. We shall have more to say of the curious speech of Lord Chancellor Brougham published as corrected, which means, we suppose, as the speaker wishes he had spoken it. The speech is dedicated to Lord Grey by the editors. Lord Brougham must do every thing on a great scale. One editor might have seemed equal to the business of passing this speech through the press ; but so great a speech must be supposed to require a multitude of edi tors.—Times. BANKRUPTCY COURT.—Auci. 23. IMPORTANT COMMERCIAL QUESTION RESPECTING THE LAWS OF JERSEY. A meeting of the creditors of James Le Couteur, a bankrupt, residing at St. Peter's Port, in the island of Guernsey, was held this morning, when some extraordinary disclosures were made respecting the laws of Jersey and Guernsey as regards commercial transactions between traders in those islands and traders in England. It appeared, from a statement of the circumstances made by Mr. Whitelock, the solicitor to the assignees, that in May last, Le Couteur, who was a draper, in Guernsey,• came to London on matters of business, and purchased a large quantity of goods for sale in Guernsey. On the 10th of that month he was arrested for debt, at the suit of one of his London creditors, and he was then advised to call his London creditors together, and submit to them the state of his affairs. In the meantime, and, as a matter of precaution, to prevent any of the creditors from ob taining a preference over the general body of cre ditors, he was also advised to dispatch his son, then with a respectable house in London, to Guernsey, furnished with full authority to register the whole of his (Le Couteur's) property, according to the custom of the island, for the equal benefit of all the creditors. Le Cou teur acceded to this proposal, and accordingly his son was dispatched to Guernsey for that purpose. Young Le Couteur, however, on his arrival in Guernsey, instead of waiting on the proper officer with his instructions, apprised the Guernsey creditors of the object of his visit, and the consequence was that the Guernsey creditors registered their debts first ; By the laws and customs of Guernsey, creditors are entitled to a preference, according to the pri ority of the registration of their debts in the Royal Court of that island. The London creditors, therefore, whose debts amounted to about 5,0001., are (according to these laws) excluded from any participation of the division of Le Couteur's effects. Before the result of young Le Couteur's mission was known in London, Le Couteur, at a meeting of his creditors, assigned all his estate and ef f ects to trustees for the equal benefit of his creditors. The Guernsey creditors, however, refusing to abandon the preference they had obtained, a fiat of bankruptcy, dated from the day of the arrest, was issued against Le Couteur, and must, therefore, overreach the registration. But here a question of great importance to the commercial world arises, the Guernsey creditors standing, as they say, upon the privileges of their island, refuse to admit the ju risdiction of the Bankrupt Laws or to part with the pro perty which they have attached. In the meantime the commission is regularly proceeding, and the assignees are determined to bring the right of the creditors under the cognizance of every Court of Appeal in the island ; and if they fail to obtain justice there, to carry the question before the Privy Council. Le Couteur's debts in London amount to about 3,0001., in Guernsey to about 4,000/., in the West of England to 550/., and in France to 841. Mr. Whitelock was fully convinced that the decision of the Privy Council would be in favour of the creditors, if the Guernsey jurisdiction refused to admit the right of the London creditors. Mr. Whitelock, having cited several cases said he had informed Mr. Le Couteur, by letter, that he would be required to attend his last examination next Tuesday, and that if he disobeyed the summons a proceed ing of outlawry would be taken against him, and it would then be necessary to apply to the Privy Council to secure his person. Mr. Devas, of the firm of Devas and Co., was convinced the bankrupt did not care two straws for the authority of the Bankruptcy Court, and therefore would not attend. Mr. Whitelock said he would be liable to seven years' transportation if he did not attend. Resolutions were then submitted to the creditors, and signed by the whole of those present, directing that means should instantly be taken to defeat the supposed claims of the persons who had made the registration in Guernsey. Mr. Whitelock observed that if the mode of proceeding sought to be established by the Guernsey creditors was allowed, any man might come from Guernsey or Jersey to London, obtain goods to a large amount, and, by advising his friends to register debts against him, sweep off the whole of the property, Mr. Faireloth, of Cheapside, who proceeded to Guern sey with the view of endeavouring to arrange with the cre ditors there, described the proceedings which took place when he was called upon to appear in the Court of Guern sey to show cause why the intimation he had desired to be notified to the creditors at Guernsey, that he, Le Couteur, had been declared a bankrupt, should not be annulled, These proceedings were as follow : " Advocate Jeremie said he had caused the notice to be served with a full knowledge of the circumstances, and he re garded the question as one of a very important character. " The Attorney-General of the island said that it was enough to make any one's blood boil with indignation, when he considered that a merchant domiciled in Guernsey could be made a bankrupt in London. What, then (said the Learned Attorney-Ueneral), was to become of our privileges, of those chartered rights conceded to us by a long line of sovereigns, and which declared that no inhabitant of Guernsey could be summoned to leave this island to appear in any higher court ? And then the creditors here were required to go to prove their debts in Basinghall-street. They were to be deprived of the benefit of pleading before their natural judge. No ; the Lord Chancellor of England had even pretended that his authority extended to these islands. It clearly did not, and Mr. Jeremie had acted without due reflection in issuing the notices, and he thought he was somewhat to blame for having served them. " The Bailiff said it was absurd to think that the natives of Guernsey could be impleaded in an English Court, where both the !forms and language were different. As to the notices (he said, I regard them as illegal, and I do not think I should allow the case to stand over, because that would to a certain extent be sanctioning the principle on which they appear to be grounded, namely, a right to remove this case from this juris diction to another. " A Jurat said the notices were illegal, being contrary to their usages and customs. They would not be entertained for a moment. The object was to compel inhabitants to plead in foreign Courts. Mr. Jeremie, in his capacity of Advocate, was certainly blameable for having issued the notices. He was for annulling them as illegal. " Another Jurat said that the object appeared to be to force Guernsey creditors to plead in foreign Courts, which would clearly be a violation of their rights and privileges. He was likewise for declaring the notices null and void. Advocate Jeremie said that he demanded leave to appeal to the full Court or Court of Judgments. " The Bailiff and two Jurats rejected this demand to ap peal, but said that if the defendant felt himself aggrieved he might petition the Court to allow the case to be heard again. " Advocate Jeremie then said that he would complain of a denial of Justice." [This is the usual form of expression by which an aggrieved party reserves to himself the right of com plaining to the superior authority when the regular appeal is denied.] The meeting theu adjourned. This bankrupt is ordered to surrender next Tuesday. PALACE COURT, AuG.23. BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE.-BOULTON U.BUSHELL This was an action for b reac h o f marr i age . Th e plaintiff, who is a prepossessing young woman, lived in a gentleman's service in Burton -crescent, in the years 1831-32, and 33, with the defendant, who professed on all occasions an unal terable attachment towards her, and his determination to make her his wife. During the latter end of the year 183:?, when his master's family was out of town, and he was living on board-wages, he proposed that they should be married before Christrm-, which she, the plaintiff, consented to, and sent to his lodgings suitable household furniture, bed clothes, wearing -linen, and in fact everything requisite for the wedded state. She moreover sent him money, from time to time, as he needed it. The banns were published, the ring purchased, the wedding-clothes prepared, the bridesmaid appointed, and the wedding-day fixed, but when it arrived, the defendant shammed illness, and the wedding was postponed. His visits grew less frequent, and at length he ceased to see the plaintiff, who became almost broken hearted. At length it was ascertained that he was married to the intended bridesmaid. The Jury, under these circumstances, returned a verdici for the plaintiff—Damages 191. 19s. WESTMINSTER SESSIONS, AUG. 23. WRIGHT V. LITTLE AND OTHERS. Mr. Adolphus stated that his client, who was a gentle man of wealth and respectability, had recently expended upwards of 14,0001. in rebuilding a house in the Strand (late the Turk's Head Tavern), opposite Catherine -street, which it was intended to open, when all was completed, as a first-rate hotel to retain, however, the old appellation of the Turk's Head. After the building had been raised, a dispute arose as to whether the party-wall bad been built in the manner required by the Building Act. Mr. Wright's surveyor insisted that the construction was strictly accord ing to the Act, and the result was that Mr. Montague, the City Surveyor ; Mr. Smith, the Surveyor of St. Paul's ; Mr. Gutch, and several other surveyors, made a survey, which costs Mr. Wright 1001. Four of the Gentlemen, Messrs. Little, Foxall, Kendall, and White, certified against him, and this appeal was made against their certifi cate. After all the trouble given to Mr. Wright they had not chosen to respond, but had withdrawn the certificate. The Court allowed the appeal, but had no power to give costs. THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY, AUGUST 26, 1834 POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE. Michael Jones, a very respectable-looking man, was on Saturday placed at the bar, and charged with obtaining ten watches, value 241., with a felonious intention, the property of Mr. Moses.—Remanded until Wednesday next. William Thomas was convicted of carrying and convey ing away a great quantity of smuggled tobacco. He was fined 101. EXTRAORDINARY SCENE.—Within the last week, the Lord Mayor received several communications relative to the treatment of the poor at the establishment of .Mr. Waddington, at Sydenham. Amon g st others was a letter from a magistrate of the coun t y of Kent, stating that the unfortunate inmates were kept in a filthy condition, and ill-fed, and otherwise ill-treated. His Lordship took care to send down to Sydenham persons well qualified to judge whether the complaints were with or without foundation ; and he appointed complainant, and defendant, and wit nesses to attend this day, for the purpose of thoroughly in vestigating the matter. A most uncommon scene presented itself. It had been represented that Air. Waddington not only starved the paupers, and worked them to an oil, but that he beat the poor boys in the most cruel manner. This was stated in the most positive and unqualified manner on Friday, by some of the poor, who came to London to com plain ; and a superintendant of the establishment, named Newberry, added his evidence to the heavy accusations against the defendant. The justice-room was crowded on the occasion. A boy, whose father and brother are likewise in one of the city parishes, from which Mr. Waddington takes into his employment the overflowings and scourings of the work houses, stated that he and the other boys were upon two occasions kept without supper, that Mr. Waddington struck him, and that he never got too much to eat. Mr. Waddington said that the boy chose to stay away two hours beyond the time of supper, and was according to the regulations of the establishment, sent supperless to bed. As for the beating, it was true the boy had received a gentle correction with a cane ; but it was because he had stolen cherries, and cruelly beaten a poor donkey. The brother of the boy was, at the desire of the father, examined, for the purpose of showing the marked injustice and cruelty of the defendant ; but he acknowledged that he always had plenty to eat, that he was not punished, and that the two sons of Mr. Waddington dined at the table, with the poor boys. Mr. William L. Brake, overseer of Bishopsgate, had gone to Sydenham on the preceding day without giving notice to Mr. Waddin g t on , an d exam i ne d th e establish ment.' He was accompanied by a committee of vestrymen ; he found the paupers remarkably comfortable and clean. The bread, beer, and meat were as good as he could wish for his own use. There was no sign of filth ; the linen was coarse, but Mr. Waddington said that if it was fine it would be soon stolen. The men's beds were stuffed with straw, and the boys' beds were flock. ~ .. Several overseers of parishes, and other respectable per sons, gave testimony to the same effect. They completely and indignantly negatived all the charges against Mr. Wad dington. A. great number of other witnesses presented themselves to confirm and to add to the testimony of these gentlemen, but The LORD MAYOR said it was quite unnecessary to go further. His Lordship then declared that Mr. Waddington was completely exculpated. The investigation had re dounded greatly to his honour. GUILDHALL. A person about 40 years of age, genteelly dressed, who gave the name of George Chatterton, was brought before Alderman Sir C. MARSHALL, charged with obtaining under false pretences from Mr. Lowden, a druggist in Fleet-street, an enema apparatus.—Remanded until to-morrow. BOW-STREET. CHARGE OF VIOLATION AGAINST AN INSPECTOR OF PO LICE.—After repeated private examinations before Sir F. ROE, a final and public examination of Squire IVovenden, an inspector of the D division of the police force (which embraces the district of Marylebone), who stands charged with violating the person of Louisa Morris, while under his custody in the station-house, took place on Saturday. The occurrence was alleged to have happened so far back as the 20th June, and .became the subject of conversation among all the members of the force, but no step was taken to investigate the charge until the circumstance reached the ears of Lord Duncannon, the new Secretary of State, by whom Sir F. Roe was directed to inquire into the par ticulars. The prosecutrix was then sent for, and her deposition having been taken, a warrant was issued for the apprehen sion of Wovenden, which was entrusted to Fall, the Bow street officer, to execute, with directions that he should collect such other evidence as existed for substantiating the charge. The whole of the evidence being comp l e t e d, Si r Frederick gave notice that the prisoner should undergo his final examination on Saturday, and accordingly the reporters were admitted to hear the evidence read, and to have an op portunity of noticing the proceedings which followed. The evidence was then read over in the following order : Louisa Morris, a woman between twenty and thirty years of age, not of very prepossessing etppearance, on a Friday, about two months ago, got into a cab in Oxford-street, about nine o'clock in the evening ; she engaged with the cabman to convey her a certain distance for a fixed sum. After proceeding to the required spot, she left the cab, and a quarrel ensued between her and the cabman respecting the fare. She was slightly intoxicated, but understood per fectly well what was going on. The cabman gave her into custody, and she was conveyed to the station-house of the D division of police, where she found the prisoner, who was the inspector on duty, and who took the charge. He in quired of her her residence, which she refused to give. She was then taken down stairs, where she was placed in a cell by her self in perfect darkneis. After some time, being much ex hausted, she lay down on a seat and fell asleep ; she was soon after awoke by finding that some person had taken advantage of her situation, and was committing the offence which was the ground of the present charge, and who ulti mately fully effected his purpose. By a lamp or candle which then stood by the door, she could see the silver lace on the collar of the man's coat. She upbraided the man with taking advantage of her, unprotected as she was, when he replied by telling her to hold her tongue. She at once re cognised the voice to be that of the prisoner. She cried very much, when a man came and asked her what was the matter, and afterwards took her up stairs into the charge room. She there again saw the prisoner, whom she up braided with faking liberties with her. She was subse quently once more removed to the cell, in consequence of her continuing to cry. She repeated the charge in the presence of the man who acted as gaoler, when the pri soner denied it. On the following morning, at nine o'clock, she was brought out of the cell with the other prisoners, when she saw Lazenby, the superintendent of the division. She requested to speak to him in private ; and her request having been complied with, she related to him the facts as they had taken place, a police-constable, who sat by, taking down her statement in writing. The prisoner was then called in, who, on being accused by Lazenby of having offered her violence, denied the truth of the charge. On being taken to the police-office in High-street, she also ac quainted police-constable with what had occurred. The prisoner while there came to her, and begged of her for God's sake, and for the sake of his wife and children, not to go with Mr. Lazenby on that night to prefer the complaint before the Commissioners. On the next day she saw the prisoner at a house of ill-fame in the neighbourhood of Covent-garden, where he repeated his request that she would not make the charge. She had gone to the house of ill-fame because she was ashamed to go home. Mr. Lazenby, the superintendent of the D division, on the morning of the 21st of June had a private interview with the prosecutrix at her request, when she stated the facts she had now deposed to. The prisoner was asked if he had any thing to say in his defence P—He merely declared that it was a gross fabrica tion altogether. • The prisoner was then fully committed to Newgate to take his trial, and the witnesses were severally bound over to give their evidence. WORSHIP-STREET. George Hayes, a young man of respectable appearance, was charged with having robbed his employer, Mr. John Woolf, a master tailor, at No. 8, Commercial-place, City road, of property to a considerable amount. The prisoner admitted his guilt, and was fully committed to Newgate for trial. A man named Richard Jones was committed for 14 days to the House of Correction for selling an unstamped news paper called the Pioneer. MARLBORO U G.H- STREET. INFORMATIONS AGAINST PUBLICANS AND BEER SHOP LEEPERS.—Byers, the well known informer, appears to be very busy amongst the public-houses and bee r-shops at the west end of the town. On Friday he had a sort of fiel& day, on which a number of informations were brought for ward, and disposed of by Mr. Dyer and the Rev. Mr. Thursby. The first information was against Mr. Benjamin Renshaw, landlord of the George, Bury-street, for suffering gaming in his house, contrary to the tenor of his licence. The defendant was fined 10s. and costs. Mr. Charles Mansfield, landlord of the Coach and Horses, Maddox-street, was fined ten shillings and costs for the like offence. Mr. Peter Thompson, landlord of the Blackmoor's Head, Jermyn-street, pleaded guilty to an information charging him with having permitted the game of " blind all-fours" to be played in his house. The Magistrates inflicted a penalty of thirty shillings and costs. Mr. John Denton, of the Barley Mow, pleaded guilty, and was fined ten shillings and costs. Mr. Henry Horti, Castle, Shepherd-street, was fined ten shillings for permitting the game of bagatelle to be played in his house. Mr. Clarke, Three Crowns, Richmond-street, was charged with having allowed betting with respect to the skill of certain individuals at skittles in his house. The informer declared he heard one person bet another !L particular wager that he could not knock all nine down in a certain number of throws. The Magistrates were of opinion that this evidence was not sufficiently conclusive, consequently the information was dismissed. Elizabeth Cotterell and Edward Hovenden, beershop keepers, next appeared, for having served beer during ille gal hours. The defendants pleaded poverty, and the informer con sented to withdraw the informations on payment of costs. Joseph 21lathers, beershop keeper, Crown-street, was sum moned for serving beer during the hours of divine service. The informer having given his evidence, witnesses for the defence came forward, who swore so stoutly that the of fence had not been committed, that the Magistrates dis missed the information. MARYLEB ONE. EXTENSIVE SYSTEM OF EMBEZZLEMENT.--Williant Reynolds, a young man of very respectable appearance, was placed at the bar before the sitting Magistrate charged with having embezzled money belonging to his master, Mr. David Wyman, a baker, in Crawford-street. The prosecutor deposed that the prisoner had for some time past been in his employ as a journeyman baker. He (prosecutor) on Friday morning, much to his surprise, re ceived intimation that he had been robbed at various times by the prisoner ; and, on proceeding to make inquiry, dis covered that a lady named Mecher had paid to him (pri soner) fourteen separate bills for bread, amounting to 2/. 6s. Bd., which sum had not been handed over to prose cutor, nor any port i on o f i t w h atever, On further investi gation it w as ascerta i ned that several other customers had paid cash to the prisoner, who had appropriated the money to his own use. In repl y t o t h e charge, the prisoner said that it was his intention to have paid the sum in question to his employer, whom he had no thought of robbing. A person living in the country, to whom he (prisoner) owed the value of a sack of flour, had threatened to arrest him, and in order to avert the dreaded calamity be had ventured to make free with his master's money for the liquidation of the debt. The prisoner was fully committed to Newgate for trial. TOWN-HALL. CHARGE OF MURDER.—Cornelius Sullivan, alias Bowick, was charged with the murder of an artilleryman named Goff, in the year 1832. John Donoghue, a sergeant of police at Blarney, near Cork, in Ireland, in consequence of instructions received by Major Miller, Inspector of Police for Munster, through the authority of the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland, had orders to proceed with the warrant of the Lord-Lieutenant, as well as the Coroner's warrant, to England, to apprehend the prisoner. On his arrival in London he went to the Mansion House, when the Lord Mayor referred him to this office, the prisoner's residence being in this district. and. of the B u ll, in Bull court, f th t the esame eestablishment,evening were they apprehended Kinsey reehde nt and do e take to theen s p o r ni prisoner oa t ns w ee o r na o t ffie c the hand,r s gn court, Tooley-street, and secured him in th e B oroug h Compter. It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner, on the sth of August, in the year 1832, was in the company of several of his countrymen at the Barrack Canteen at Bal lancolley, near Cork ; a quarrel took place between the pri soner and his party, and some artill erymen. Peace was restored, and the prisoner and his compan i ons left the can teen, wishing all " Good-bye," an d t h ey were wending their way homewards, when about t wo m il es from the canteen the prisoner and his associates me t t h e d eceased, who was r eturning with his comrade to th e i r b arrac k s, when the pri soner gave the signal for attack. Th e d eceased, who had not been in the canteen, received a f ata l bl ow, and his com rade was left for dead on the road. The deceased and his surviving comrade were conveyed to the barrack hospital. The survivor was confined to the hospital some time. Nei ther the deceased nor his comra d e were known to the mur derer or his associates, and it i s supposed that the latter, being worsted in their attack upon the artillerymen at the canteen, were determined to wrea k the i r vengeance on some of the regiment, and meeting the deceased and his comrade they rendered them the victims. A person from Ireland identified the prisoner as the party who gave the fatal blow. When the prisoner was informed that he would be forth with removed to Ireland to take his trial for the murder,he evinced much uneasiness. He was removed to the lock up cell, and when there begged that he might have some thing to drink, and also an interview with some of his countrymen, upwards of 100 o f whom were waiting out side to hear the issue of the examination. This was denied, lest a project had been formed for his rescue. The prisoner was afterwards conveyed under an escort to prison, prior to from England. his removal NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. (From the Hampshire TelegrapA.) PORTSMOUTH, AUGUST 23.-L-We received letters from our Malta correspondent to the Ist inst., which assure us that all appearance of hostile feeling in the neighbourhood of the Dar danelles was vanished, and cannot be created again with any effect, at least until the winter has passed "away. The British squadron, under Sir Josias Rowley, anchored at Vourla on the 22d of July, from Mytelene, and, after the ships had completed their water, proceeded thence to Scalanova, from which port the squadron would sail to Nauplia, and remain there until the arrival of the August mail from England, then proceed to Corfu, to await the September mail, and return to Malta early, in October to winter. We present the following extract, which comprehends information of considerable interest from the various positions on the Mediterranean shores : " Mat TA, AUGUST I.—The disposition of the squadron is as follows :—Britannia (flag ship), Caledonia, Canopus, Edin burgh, Talavera, Thunderer, Endymion, and Tyne, cruising with the Admiral ; Madagascar, at Nauplia ; Scout, at Alex andria; Hind, at Smyrna; Volage, at Corfu; Rover at Tri poli ; Favourite and Carron, at Malta (the former under qua rantine, the latter about to proceed with letters for the squa dron) ; Beacon, surveying at Port Olivier (Mytelene) • Jasseur, on the Coast of Sp a i n . Th e C hampion sailed for 'Gibraltar and England on 18th July, the Actaeon on the 19th, and the Prince Regent transport on the 20th with detachments. Lieut. W. Lewis (b) has joined the Thunderer, from the Caledonia, vice Lieut. R. M. Burdon, invalided.. " The French Squadron purpose wintering at Navarin, where a depot of naval stores is about being formed, under the express permission of the Hellenic Government. " The American Commodore Patterson, in the Delaware, ship of the line, has proceeded from Naples to Alexandria, after visiting which port and the Pyramids of Upper Egypt he intends sailing for Jaffa, and land there to visit Jerusalem, in company with his lady and some of the officers. Her Imperial Royal Austrian Majesty's brig Monteaccoli• , sailed from Malta for Tripoli the 26th July, and the frigate Venere, with the flag of Rear-Admiral Count Dundolo, and the brig of war Veneto, for Pal ermo an d N aples on the 31st of the same month. The United States frigate Constellation, and the French brig of war Ducodenic, have also sailed for Tripoli. IN HARBOUR.—Victory, Excellent, Orestes, /Etna, Medea, Buzzard, Raven, Seaflower. The Orestes, 18, Commander Codrington, will go out of Harbour on the 29th, and will sail the next day for the Medi terranean.

The Columbine, 18, Commander Henderson, at Sheerness, will be ready to proceed to the West India station in a few days. The 'Etna, surveying vessel, Commander Arlett (acting), will be paid off on Monday, and re-commissioned. The Raven, Lieut. Kellett, was paid off on Wednesday.

PLYMOUTH, AUc. 21,—Arrived (last evening) the Royal Tar steamer, J. Whiteway, master, in seven days from Lisbon, bringing Count de Gand, charged with dispatches for the Portuguese Ambassador. All was tranquil when she sailed. Don Pedro, the Empress, and Donna Maria were highly grati fied by their visit, in the Royal Tar, to Oporto. The Royal Tar has proceeded for the River to wait for dispatches and return to Lisbon. Sailed (yesterday) the Portland, 50, Captain Price, for the Mediterranean station.

COURT-MARTIAL AT PORTSMOUTH.—A Court-martial was held on board his Majesty's ship Victory, on Wednesday (of which Rear-Admiral Sir F. L. Maitland, K. C. 8., was Pre sident), to try Mr. Alex. Lawrence, Surgeon of his Majesty's brig Buzzard, for having been guilty of acts of drunkenness between the time of joining the brig and the 11th inst. The Court having heard the witnesses for the prosecution, and what the prisoner stated in his defence, was of opinion, " That the charge against the prisoner had been proved ; but it appearing that, whilst in practice on shore, he had re2eived a severe hurt on the head, which was followed by. - fits of epilepsy, and injury to his intellect, they were induced only to sentence him to be dismissed from the brig, and to have his name placed at the bottom of the list of his Majesty's Navy, upon which list he is never able to rise." STATE OF TRADE. LEEDS.—There was a very brisk market in the cloth halls, on Saturday, particularly in goods of low qualities, and in heavy goods, calculated for the winter trade. The quantity of goods for Tuesday's market was very limited ; and the stock in the halls being reduced very low by the purchasers on Saturday, there were, in consequence, considerably fewer goods sold. Business continues to improve in the warehouses. BRADFORD.-There is no material alteration in our market since last week. Several foreigners were in the market to day. Plain backs of all descriptions were in great demand, and three-quarter wide merinoes--both for the foreign and home trades. The yarn market is rather more lively than last week ; but the prices offered are so much lower than the spin ners can afford to take, considering the high price of wool, that it prevents that activity which would otherwise prevail. There is comparatively little business doing in wool at present ; it was expected that the brisk demand and advanced price of the late sales at Garraway's, would have had a similar effect here ; but the caution of the spinners, as well as of the merchants, in not being led away by what others are doing, has operated not only in their refusing to give any advance, but rather in limit ing their purchases. There is a firmness amongst the staplers, which can only be accounted for by the difficulty they find in purchasing from the farmers. HALIFAX.—The state of this market last Saturday was again without any material alteration. The business done in wool was rather limited ; but the transactions in the Piece hall were very considerable, and fully exceeded those of the preceding week. The stocks of goods in the hall are now very low, and the supplies continue much beneath the con sumption, so that merchants begin to find a difficulty in pro curing goods of any one description to a large amount. Ma nufacturers, however, declare their aversion to increase stocks unless higher prices can be obtained for them, or unless they can purchase the raw material at a reduction. On this im portant head, however, it is the general opinion among the best informed on such matters, that as the London wool sales have gone off with much activity and improvement, and as the demand continues brisk for nearly all kinds of goods, both for home and foreign consumpti on , together with a very short supply of stuff goods in all the commercial ports whether Bri tish manufactures are exported, none need be afraid of a de clension of prices, whatever may be the extent of the advance. At Heckmondwicke market, on Tuesday, there was some business done, but the market was not brisk, and no alteration in the prices. ROCHDALE. - The flannel market, on Monday last, was not so well attended by buyers as it had been for the previous four or five weeks. This may be accounted for, as it was the Wakes Monday, when few buyers generally attend. Those who did attend, however, bought freely in the former part of the day, and there was a good deal of business done in the middle and low qualities, at the prices of last week. There was not so much business done in the wool market to-day, yet prices were the same as last week. LANCASHIRE.—The silk weaving at Leigh remains steady; the fancy weavers at Manchester and the neighbourhood have begun within the last fourteen days to manifest a slackness ; weavers have to wait for a warp two or three days, and some more. Plain sarcenets keep tolerably steady. MANCHESTER.—The gingham trade at Manchester and the neighbouring towns has dwindled away almost to nothing ; some of the principal manufacturers have entirely given up the manufacture. It is believed that the repeal of the duty on cotton prints, which made prints so cheap, has been the means of thus greatly lessening the demand for ginghams. TonmoaDEN.—The cotton hand-loom weavers at Todmorden are in great request ; and last week the manufacturers ad vanced one penny per cut. The cuts are 30 yards long, and the weavers now receive fifteen pence per cut. Good weavers cannot weave more than five, and some six cuts in the week. YORK.—The supply of wool was moderate at the market on Thursday, but only few buyers were present ; the wool shown went off heavily, and a part was left unsold. Hogs and ewes, 245. to 265. ; ewe, 20s. to 235. ; locks, 16s. to 17s. ; moor wool, 12s. to 12s. 6d. per stone of 16 pounds. —Leeds .Mrcurv. For filling the important office of the Egyptian Con sulship, the late Henry Salt, E sq ., was gifted with every qualification. His labours in elucidation of the wonderful an tiquities of Egypt were of the most gigantic kind, and have tended much to remove the impenetrable cloud, which, for ages, had hung over the early history of that interesting land. The life of Mr. Salt has been compiled from his own papers and manuscripts, confided, on his death, to his friend and schoolfellow, Mr. Halls. The work must find its way into every library in the kingdom. THE HARVEST.—This week the weather has not been so uniformly fine and splendid as last week, but a great proportion of the corn in this neighbourhood is cut and led ; And with ordinary exertion, and a few more days of fair wea ther, the farmers may easily secure the whole of their crops. The abundance of the harvest is clearly proved by the rapid decline in the different cornmarkets. There is almost a cer tainty of that great blessing, cheap bread, during the ensuing Year.--14eds ifercury. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. COUNTRY CORN MARKETS DURING LAST V Wheat. Barley. Oats Bean.
