FRENCH PAPERS. CHAMBER OF PEERS.—StrriNG or 'NOY. 22. M. C. Perier, after alluding to the late cre ation of Peers, as a proof of the wisdom and discretion with which the Crow n wou ld use th e un li m it e d p o w e r of nominating new Peers, with which it was proposed to entrust at, con eluded as follows :—" In fact, all e nlightened men per ceive that the object was not merely to obtain a . naajortty (for in this Chamber a majority is always certain trt favour of any patriotic determination), but rather to take a res pectful precaution against your personal generosity, w hi c h would have impressed on the resolution of the CheffibU• the character rather of an act of self-clevotinta than of purely legislative e nactment. We felt th a t t ames nat i ona l by their high attributes, being assottal with those which now shed a lustre over this assembly, but not having, like you, the merit of sacrificing a Vested right, would give to your decision a sanction whi c h wou ld not h ave - Merely the character of a generous disinterestedness. Besides, was it not expedi en t t o fill up , a t } e , s t i n part, th e vacancies left i n thi s Ch am b er , an d th us assure t o The deli beration and character of a question of such importance the concurrence of a great number of intelligent minds. Your feelings of honour, which last year led you to refer the "tleci sinn of a most delicate question to the Royal wied'am, but which, this year, when the Charter is in the zenith of its power and action, are compelled to guide you to decide yourselves a question which is at lestat half a personal one —your feelings of honour, I say, will have understood our motives, and the choice of individuals made by the Xing will, we venture to assert, have completed their justifica tion in your eves. For ourselves, gentlemen, we 'con ceive that we have, under existing circumstances, rather offered a homage worthy of the French Peerage, than in any manner outraged its independence or glory. Oar conscience tells us that we have given satisfaction to the delicacy of yours." He then reminded the Chamber that powerful institutions perish at titre, ftum too great con cessions, at others from too obstinate refusals, and that true wisdom was to be shnwo in examining and appreciating the existing state of affairs, in order to decide whether concessions were expedient, or whether refusal were safe. For himself he e7...pressecl his decided cpinion that the pre sent moment was one in which concessions judiciously made w - Juld he the surest pledges of safety ; and, in con clusi.on, repeated his sanguine hope that the Chamber would not allow itself to be the means of impeding the consolidation of the revolution, and thence plunging the country into new tumults and dissentions, but would rea dily sacrifice its own future privileges to the welfare of the nation, and thus put the finishing stroke to the great work of general reconciliation. The Bill was ordered to be printed, and distributed to the Members in the usual manner. The Ministers of Commerce brought in several Bills Of local and private intersst. The Chamber then proceeeded to the discussion on the Bill granting an additional credit on account of the Na tional Recompences. The two articles of which it Was composed were adopted without discussion, and the Chamber proceeded to ballot on the ensemble of the Bill. The following was the result of the scrutiny :—For the Bill, 62 ; against it, 11 ; blank votes, 3.—Adjourned. SITTING OF NOV. Q. The chair was taken at two, The Members were scattered about the hall engaged in separate knots. A large group surrounded M. Merilhou, and entered into friendly conversation with the Ministers. We understood that only one of the nine bureaux was of opinion that the address agreed t• at the meeting at Lointier's by the extreme gauche should be read. At three business began. The reform of the Penal Code was the order of the day. M. Vatent was speaking when we were obliged to conclude. The votes in the bureaux on the proposal for reading Vie address to the King against the new creation, were— For the reading 133 Against it Majority for Ministers • -94 (From the Quatidienne of Wednesday.) Russia has again sent orders to her Ambassadors not to sign passports for France. The supposed disbanding of 115,000 men of the Austrian army, so much boasted of by the Perier Administration, was nothing more than a piece of jugglery. The Austrian soldiers have only re ceived a temporary dismissal, and may be recalled when ever it should be considered necessary. Can any one in form us why a battalion of the frontier guard of Banat proceeded through Vienna i❑ order to reach Weis, which Why has not this corps been sent to its original destination? (From the Constitutionnel of Wednesday.) BOLOGNA, Nov. 11.—The Pope, notwithstanding the remonstrance of the Pro-Legate of Bologna, has confirmed the ordinances relative to the closing of the University. But the Pro-Legate, overcome by the persevering resistance of Romagna, has just made a decree, by virtue of which, considering that it is his first duty to maintain order and tranquillity in the provinces, considering that the studies are suspended contrary to the wishes and desires loudly ex pressed by above 500 young men, who had signed a peti tion addressed to Rome, and that a longer interruption of their studies would be a source of disorders which, under rvesent circumstances, there would be no means of re -,•essing, he orders that the University shall be imtne• tlittely re-opened. We do not yet know bow the Holy See will take this bold infraction, by our Pro•Legute, of the ordinances of the Pope. PARIS, Nov. 22.—1 t seems that the Emperor of Russia not only forbids the delivery of passports to such of his subjects as desire to visit France, but has also caused orders to be given to all the Russians who were in France to return to Russia within a very short time. We have a letter from Frankfort, which says—" We hear of the speedy meeting of a Congress, like that of Carlsbad, to adopt efficacious measures against democrati cal and revolutionary ideas. This winter will be employed in diplomatic negotiations on the subject. It is affirmed that the small German Courts have assented to the pro posals made to them." (From the Gazette de France of Wednesday.) Nuts, Nov. 22.—A letter from Dresden of the 12th of November says—" The cholera merbus has appeared in the kingdom of Saxony, but it is only the common cholera. The official notice of the Government says— " According to official infortna'ion, the daughter of the clergyman of Audenhagen was attacked by the cholera in the night of the 7th inst. The deceased, who had long suffered from cramp in the stomach, had drawn on herself tie disorder which caused her death by too strict a regimen. T le dissection of the body in the presence of three doctors afforde I no signs of Asiatic cholera ; it merely served to c mfirmt the circumstances above stated. It was, therefore, the ordinary or sporadic cholera." The accounts from Lima announce a military revolution in that country. The Vice-President of Peru, and Gen. Miller, had taken refuge on hoard an American ship, and had sailed for Chili. The Prefect took the reins of Go. vernment, which he resigned two days afterwards. The President of the Republic was with the army. Accounts from Caen say that a amatory cordon is going to be established on the coast of Calvados, from the left bank of the Seine to the right bank of the Vire. Rigorous measures will be adopted towards any person who should attempt to pass it. Sanatory precautions are also em ployed with respect to ships arriving from suspected places, and to fishermen who have communicated at sea with other vess.:As, (From the Journal des Debuts of Wednesday.) PARIS, Nov. 23.—News have been received today that the Russian troops will evacuate the republic of Cra cow on the 24th November. --- On the 19th I\ ovember, 64 Trappists, subjects of Great Britain, belonging to the dissolved monastery of L a memo-aye, embarked on board a steam-boat to descend the Loire, and embark in the Ilan corvette, which is to take them to Englund. They were in secular clothes. A considerable crowd was at the port to witness their em barkation, during which there was no disturbance what ever. The following extract of a letter from Lisbon, received by the mail of this mf,rning, proves that active preparation is making to meet the expected invasion. The four vessels, the Juno, the Asia, the Congress, and the Fairlie, which have been detained for some days under seizure, have been released this morning by an order from the Government. It appears that there was no legal ground for their detention, though most strenuous efforts to pro•. long it were made on the part of MinnEi.'s agents in this ountry:--- " Lisbon Nov I.° " An express arrived from Madrid two day. ago, Lisbon, a V a . c. count of Don Pedro's departure from Paris, and a Council of State was held almost immediately afterwards.

The second meeting was held in Dublin on Thursday last, at which the master spirit announced a variety of motions, all bear ing, more or less, upon Reform. We regret, however, to find him talking about " the n ecessity of pulli ng d own the Reform flag, and of hoisting the Anti-Union banner in its stead," in case the forthcoming Bill is not, as respects Ireland, in exact accord ance with his own wishes. Surely Mr. O'CoN NELL should, by this time, be aware that the passing of a Reform measure as efficient as the last —which of course it must be, or neither England, Scotland, nor Ireland will accept it— will lead directly to further measures for the benefit of the sister island, and that he eau hope to gain nothing by A Premature system of menace Pass but an efficient English Reform 13i11, and from that moment an equally effi cient one is secured for Ireland. To this ' point, and this only Mr. O'CONNELL , should for the present xclusi ve 1 ditect his atrettion. But to tlisttatt thte attelitiOri of Ireland from the 'oft great ta7dinal point, by a variety of plans aid projects, is to put the 'cart before the horse, by way of 'draggin'g It out of a slough ; to begin, in . shtit, at the wrong end. The measure resorted to by the French Mi nistry to carry the Peerage Bill, appears to have excited much censure from the opposition of both parties, and the condemnation of the greater portion of the Press of Paris. The creation of A batch of Peers for the purpose of Voting away the perpetuity of the order, could not have been expected to pass without much clamour from those who disapprove either of that part of the Bill which destroys the heredita riness of the Peerage, or of the other clauses of it which give to the KING the unlimited powe r of nomination for life for the future. The Bill' j being a sort of go-between, has had, as was probable, to bear a considerable share of re-. proach from the extremes of both parties and both have been ready to blame the step that has been taken to insuro its success. The addition to the Chamber of Peers is only worth notice in this point of view—that it shows the foolish fondness of the Ministry for an insti tution which is, to all intents and purposes, effete. It proves their anxious desire to prevent the wrath of the nation falling upon the Peers, for an obstinacy which, it was too plain, they intended to display. It demonstrates their fear of the Deputies resolving, as they assuredly would have resolved, that the Bill was valid without the Peers' assent. M. PERIER has therefore protected the Peers against the de graded position in which they would have stood, if the Bill had become law in spite of their imbecile resistance, and in so doing he has acted upon true juste milieu principles, rather than those which ought to be the rule of the French Ministry of 1831. We become daily more convinced that M. PERIER, as SlsmoNDl has observed, regards the fluctuations of the Bourse as the criterion of the worth of his mea sures, and that the stocks are his barometer of national happiness. We impute to him no dishonesty in this—far from it—but we greatly doubt the fitness for the times of a Minister who acts upon such notions. The true policy of a Minister, to whom the revolution of the three days gave birth, was to have introduced a Bill abolishing the hereditary Peerage, and providing for the establishment of a Senate or Upper Chamber, about half as nu merous as the Deputies, to consist of men ad vanced in years, and to be elected for a mode rately long term of years by the same electors as choose the Deputies. The Belgian Constitu, this tjiale - dge T , n tl — r , i. c . ,a n s c i e ly w an o d ula ire i v s have been provided with a second Cham ber, to form a reasonable check upon the popular enthusiasm of the Deputies. The Minister should have brought forward such a plan and supported it by arguments drawn from his own conviction, instead of speaking against his own proposition, and he should further have declared his indifference to the course the Peers might adopt in regard to his Bill, inasmuch as the submission of the Bill to them at all, was a mere act of courtesy no t required by any necessity for their sanction . The people, or those who acted for them a t the revolution, when they modified the Charter, left the final arrangement of the Peerage to be afterwards disposed of. It was competent to those who expelled CHARLES X. from the Throne of his ancestors, to have abolished the Peerage altogether on the 29th of July, but be cause they desired to proceed with caution, it i s certainly no reason why their will was subse quently to meet with interruption from the ob stinacy of the Chamber of Peers. The Minis ter ought, therefore, to have placed his strong hold in public opinion, and the conformity of his plan to the wants and desires of the French nation. He should have proclaimed himself the servant of the people, and have made himself their organ and instrument towards the accomplish ment of such of their wishes as the revolution had not yet fulfilled. He should, in a word, have led the people in their march towards the full en joyment of that political freedom which is the object of all their present desires and their past struggles. Those who look beyond the surface of things must admit that the Chamber of Deputies is the Only one of the three elements of the Government that has any substantial power,—that is to say, that the . Democracylstrongly prevails over the Mo narchy, and Aristocracy. To say that the Go vernment of' France is a mixed one in form is nothing to the purpose. The question is—where the power really resides ? If it he firmly fixed, as we believe, in the element of Democracy, any attempts to divert the power towards the Mo narchy or Aristocracy are futile, and only im pede the working of the political machine. The spirit of the French nation is essentially demo - cratic, and with that spirit its institutions ought to conform, for it is in the harmony between the spirit of a nation and its institutions that its power and happiness mainly consist. Frankfort Papers have been received this morning ; they contain no matters of importance The following Circular has been forwarded. to the Members of the House of Commons.— " Downing-street, Nov. 22. " SIR,—As Parliament is to meet for the despatch of business on the 6th of December, I take the liberty of requesting your at tendance. I feel that after the very long and fatiguing session which has so lately concluded, the calling upon the supporters of the Reform Bill so soon to resume their labours is pressing rather severely on their zeal, but I hope the importance of the occasion will be admitted as a full justification for the call thus made upon them. I need not impress upon you the necessity of a full attendance, and I hope and trust, therefore, you will be good enough to appear in your place at the meeting of Parliament. " I have the honour to be, Sir, your most obedient humble servant. " ALTHORP." It is said that ltdermen GARRATT and C. SMITH ate about to retire from the Court of Aldermen.

The LORD CHANCELLOR, sat to-day in Lincoln's-Inn- Hall, and disposed of seven cases in judgment, which were argued before him a short time since. On quitting; the Court at half-past, his Lotdship stated that he would not sit agaift till tuesday at eleven o'clock. bAVIS V. DAViS. This was an appeal from the judgment of the Master„ of the Rolls upon the construction of a will. The *or:ht a the testamentary paper were,— " I appoint -- to be my executor, to manage and dispose of and settle all my affairs, and I appoint him to be guardian of my daughter." This was the whole of the will. It turned out that his daughter wait illegiti mate ; and after considerable hesitation, his Honour was of opinion that this paper amounted to a will in favour of the daughter ; but after all the consideration his Lordship had been able to give to the case he could not acquiesce in that conclusion. He could see nothing on the face of the will to induce the Court to consider it a will in favour of the testator's daughter. It was quite clear there were no words of gift to the daughter, and there fore he felt bound to reverse the decree, but without costs. TOMLINSON V. BROW NE. This was a question upon the construction of a common money bond, and upon an appeal from the Vice Chancel lor his Lordship had looked into the points as he had stated he should do, and was of the same opinion now as when the arguments were addressed to the Court.—Judgment affirmed without costs. BINGHAM P. JONES. This was also an appeal from the Vice-Chancellor, and the question arose upon the effect cf an acceptance of a bill of exchange by a femme covert, who had an estate settled upon her to her sole and separate use, and with the deci sion of the Court below his Lordship agreed. HOPKINSON V. II ENTEY. This was the Arundel Savings Bank case, in which the question was, under the Savings Bark Act, whether three of the trustees had misapplied their trust-money in the repair of the Arundel bridge. The present motion was against Mr. Holmes in particular, one of the trustees of the said bank. The motion prayed for an order calling upon that gentleman to pay into Court an amount, namely 600/., to abide the result of the ciuse. His Lordship's opinion clearly was that the records ought to be brought into Court, on the ground that, in his opi nion, there had been an undoubted misappropriation of the trust funds. The money was therefore ordered to be paid into Court on or before the first day of Hilary Term next. 'We have not time to give the remainder of the judgments LITERATURE. POMPEII. Vol.!.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.) WARBLING V. GILBERTSON. Mr. EARL opened the case for the plaintiff, by stating that the defendant had violently assaulted and imprisoned the plaintiff, and had taken him to Hatton-garden police office. The defendant pleaded a justification, viz , that the plaintiff, being in his employ, had feloniously appro priated certain monies belonging to the defendant to his own use, and in consequence thereof he imprisoned the plaintiff. Sir J. SCARLETT was about to detail the plaintiff's case at length, when he was interrupted by Lord TENTERDEN, who stated that the defendant having pleaded a justification of the whole charge, be was bound to prove first that he acted properly. Mr. POLLOCK then addressed the Jury in support of the defendant's case, and detailed the circumstances which induced his client to give the plaintiff in custody, as he would prove by evidence ; and having done so, said, that if the Jury believed the defendant bad acted under the motives of pique or malice, then the defendant would be entitled to their verdict. _ _ John East stated that he was clerk to the defendant. Wakeling came into the defendant's service in June, last year, and was employed to cart out the bread, and re ceive money from the customers. He always took out three books with him, viz.—a bill-book, in which to enter monies received ; a second, to enter chance custom ers' bread in ; and the third, to enter regular customers in. Witness was in the habit of taking an account of the quantity of bread taken out in the morning, and was to have received an account of its disposal on his return. On his return on the 6th July, he was intoxicated. Wit ness made up the accounts and found 101. 17s. 6d. due from plaintiff to defendant. The plaintiff was very abusive to defendant and his wife, and refused to pay over the money, and in consequence defendant sent for Dyer, a policeman. Dyer took the plaintiff into custody, and on the way to the station-house plaintiff aimed a blow at defendant. At the watch-house he was about to be locked up, when he handed over to the defendant the money due to him. Plaintiff was taken before a Magistrate next day. Plaintiff did not return into defendant's service after that. Witness afterwards went round to the customers, and found several of them had paid plaintiff money, which had not been accounted for to the defendant. Mr. Pearce was one customer, whose bill of 3s. 21d. had been paid to plaintiff, which he had not entered i❑ his books. There was a payment also by a Mr. Whitehead of 31. Bd. to the plaintiff, not accounted for; also, a Mrs. Drink, who paid plaintiff 4s. 1 id., that was unaccounted for. Plaintiff bad entered these accounts as having been carried forward, of course, unpaid. The witness went through other small accounts which he stated to be similarly unac counted for; when plaintiff went away witness had no knowledge of any of these accounts. Cross-examined by Sir J. SCARLFTT-Defendant car ried on business at 32, Speldhurst-street, Brunswick square. During the short time plaintiff had been in de fendant's service, it happened that he paid in more money than from the books appeared to be due ; but it was after wards corrected. Mistakes and omissions had before been found in plaintiff's books, but he afterwards set them right. Witness had at times felt some dit4 • tculty in settling the exact sums. Plaintiff's wages were 19s. a week, and he was paid every Monday night after he settled his accounts. On the evening of the 6th July plaintiff was sent to the watch-house because be refused to give up the money : he refused to give it up until defendant stated what sum he ought to pay. At the watch-house, after some time, he was told what was due, and he paid over the money. Witness did not hear defendant promise then to forgive plaintiff. Witness heard that plaintiff set up business as a cheesemonger afterwards in the Hackney-road. Plaintiff demanded a week's wages, after being dismissed, and defendant refused to pay more than two days' wages. Plaintiff was taken up a fortnight afterwards for the embezzlement : on the latter occasion defendant demanded 1/. 3s. 6d. for money due to him, and plaintiff wished the 19s. week's wages to be set off against that demand. The plaintiff was then given into custody. The matter was investigated before the Magistrate, and the plaintiff was discharged. Plaintiff had a wife and some children. The cause had proceeded thus far, when Lord Ters . - , TERDEN intimated, that according to the present evi dence the justification was not fully proved, and he re commended an amicable adjustment. The Counsel on each side having consulted, Sir JA:wxs SCARLETT said, that upon the understanding that the de• Pendant'■ conduct arose wholly from misapprehension, and that he did not now impute any fraudulent motives to the plaintiff, he would consent to accept a verdict for 351. Mr. PoLLocx admitted, on the part of the defendant, that he did not now entertain an opinion that the plaintiff had been guilty of fraud, and he consented to a verdict in his favour for the sum named. Lord TENTERDEN said, the parties had acted very honourably. Verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 351. THE SING V. TODDY. was Mr. William G ra h am , Mr. ADOLPHUS s t a t e d the case for the prosecution. a musical instrument maker, This was an i n di c t men t for perjury. The prosecutor and the defendant was a s urgeon and apothecary, be sides being a musical instrument maker. In 1826, the prosecutor arrested the defendant, who rendered to priscin, and took the benefit of the Insolvent Debtors Act. The alleged perjury was committed in the proceedings of the Insolvent Court ; and it was charged that the defendant omitted several debts due to him from his schedule, when he swore to it as containing a full, particular, and correct account of his estate and effects.— Several witnesses were called, who proved that some of the • N, ep _AP ' debts due to him in his books were omitted in his sworn schedule. _ _ _ _ Mr. BUSBY on behalf of the defendant, submitted that the mere omission of certain debts in the insolvent's schedule did not constitute the ofSnce of perjury. Lord TENIERDET7 was ofd different opinioli. The in solvent swore that he had returned a full and com plete list of his estate and effects, and he had not done so. - Under these circumstances he, Lord Tenterden, could not take upon himself to direct an acquittal. Should the Jury find a verdict of guilty the defendant's Counsel could argue the point of law upon a motion for a new trial. Mr. Buser then called his Lordship's attention to the Insolvent Debtors' Act (7th Geo. IV. c. 5'70 under Which this prosecution was instituted. The 71 s t section of that Act stated, that if any insolvent swore falsely to his schedule, and was convicted, he should be subject to such a punish ment as was usually awarded to persons convicted of wil ful and corrupt perjury. The present prosecution was in stituted under that section: But it was the preceding (the 70th) section, which especially proVided for cases of the present description, which were mere omissions in the schedule ; the 70th section provided that if any person wilfully omitted certain matters from his schedule, he should be subject to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for a period not exceeding three years. The 71st section doubtless referred to matters which were falsely inserted in the schedule, and which the insolvent swore to be true. Now in this case what was inserted in the schedule was sworn by the insolvent to be true, and no doubt it was true, but if he omitted any thing from the schedule, the regular course of proceeding would be to enforce the 70th section, which especially provided for such cases. Mr. Anotruus submitted that the offence was perjury, for that offence must be committed to give effect to the omission. The 70th section was framed to punish per sons who were sent back by the Insolvent Court to render a true account of their affairs, and who refused to do so, and that might be when no oath was taken. Having sworn to a false schedule, there could be no doubt that the offence was perjury. Mr. BUSBY said the 70th section expressly stated, " so sworn to," and therefore, it clearly provided for this offence. Lord TENTERDEN was of opinion, that the offence would be perjury, if it were not otherwise provided for by the Act of Parliament. It was, however, by this Act other wise provided for, and, therefore, he conceived that the in dictment for perjury, under the 71st section, could not be sustained.—The defendant was consequently acquitted. COMMON PLEAS.-(THIS DAY.) BROWNE V. BRYANT. Mr. Serjeant TAnDY stated this to be an action brought by the plaintiff, Mr. J. M. Browne, a solicitor, against the defendant, Mr. Bryant, the well-known post-master in Regent-street, to recover compensation in damages for a breach of warrantry of a horse, taken in ex change by the plaintiff from the defendant. It appeared that the plaintiff in the month of September, 1830, took in exchange from the defendant a black horse, for which he gave 271. in money and another horse in exchange, for which 201. 16s. was allowed, making the whole amount of purchase, 471. 10s. On the day after the purchase, the plaintiff's.brother drove the horse in a gig to Kensington, when it was discovered that it went lame, he notwithstanding never returned the animal, but went on a journey into the country, which lasted five weeks, during which period the lameness increased and one of the fore-feet became contracted. On his return, at the end of five weeks, he waited upon the defendant and is presented the state of the animal, upon which Mr. Bryant immediately agreed to take him hack upon consideration that he (theplaintiff) should pay for the hire. This was refused, the horse was sent to the straw-yard for the winter by the advice of Mr. Bryant, and there it grew worse, and was subsequently brought to the hammer, and sold for 31. 10s. Repeated applications we,e made to the defendant to come to an arrangement re specting the breach of warrantry, he at the time of sale having represented the horse to be sound, and it was agreed that the question should be put to arbitration. However, the reference did not take place, and the plain tiff was compelled to bring the present action, Mr. Serjeant ANDREWS for the defendant addressed the Jury, and called several witnesses, who swore that the horse was sound at the time of the sale of it to Mr. Browne ; and that the defendant had caused the lameness by driving the animal too great a distance. The CHIEF JUSTICE summed up the case, and the Jury found for the plantiff, damages 491. 16s. errITTIZT OF EXVIIEQUER.—(THIS; DAY-) THE ATTORNEY-t, 'LEAL V. LYAN, SON, AND (OLES. This was an information filed by his Majestyi Attorney- General against the defendants, who are warehousemen, in Watling-street, for an alleged smuggling transaction. Our readers will remember this transaction, as it caused a considerable sensation in the city at the time of the seizure, which was of silks, to a very large amount. This morn ing was appointed for the trial of the cause, and a special jury summoned for the purpose. At the sitting of the Court Mr. Serjeant WILDE, for the defendants, applied for a postponement of the trial, He had an affidavit from the defendants, stating that they had regular invoices of all the goods which had been seized ; that different portions of the goods were in dif ferent invoices ; and that they had had three clerks employed ever since the seizure in tracing these goods ; and in a very short time they would have got through, and he wls able to trace the whole of the goods. They also applied to his Lordship to be allowed to in spect the goods. He (Mr. Serjeant Wilde) was perfectly aware that this was not usual, and the reason was, that parties might, after such inspection, fabricate in voices to agree with the marks on the goods, but in this case the parties were willing to deposit the invoices with the Attorney for the Crown before they inspected the goods. _ . The ATTORNEY-GENERAL had seen the affidavits, and had no wish to push forward the trial on the part of the Crown. The LORD CHIEF BARON granted the application. There was another Crotvn case, for a breach of the Ex cise Laws, in the paper, but it was settled this morning. TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES. am very unwilling to obtrude myself upon the public, but as there is nut one word of truth, so far as I am concerned, in the letter signed " A. B." which I have read in your Paper of this day, I feel it due to my charac ter to call upon you to give it my most decided contradic tion by inserting this to-morrow morning. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, Charing-cross, Nov. 26. JOHN DRUMMOND. P.S. I was solicited to attend the meeting, whether assented or dissented, and to take any one of my partners with me, which will account for Mr. Henry Drummond's presence. CUSTOM-HOUSE IN THAMES-STREET.- The repairs of the new London Custom-house, which some time ago fell in, owing to some defect in the founda tion of that structure of the late Mr. Pzro's, amounted to upwards of 200,0001., whilst the bonds given by Mr. PETO'S sureties for the due performance of the contract did not exceed 32,0001. A proposition has been made to the executors of Mr. PETO, the architect or builder, to pay 16,0001. damages, and the law .costs incurred (about 7,0001. more), in full discharge of all demands ; to which the latter acceded, requiring, however, three years' time to wind up Mr. PETO'S affairs, before the payment of this sum should be insisted upon. Thus the public will lose 190,0001. by the job _ _ It has been stated in the Tory prints, that the Archbishop of CANTERBURY, at the head of the bench of Bishops, has, along with some of the leading Tories, pro mised their adhesion to Government, if 151. were substi tuted instead of 101., as the qualification for a borough voter ; but Earl GREY has rejected the insidious proposal ; he has pledged his character, not to render the Bill a fal lacy, but either make it an efficient measure of Reform, or to resign his situation ; he will perform his pledge, and the nation will bless both him and the KING ! Once more, the House of Lords is to he tried, not as before, with a majority of Peers, created by PITT and LIVERPOOL, but with a new infusion of patriotic feeling, called from the tried sterling patriots of the nation. The KING, his Ministers, and the people, all pull together, and a threefold cord, though it may be hard strained, cannot be broken.--Not tingham Review. have A t Irvine, forsome time e hu be s v e n fee and prevalent, r andthe e reha p v la eb in ee t n s a number of deaths. Kilmarnock, we understand, is comparatively free of disease ; but Ayr is in a very serious plight.

What all this proceeds from we know not; but this we know, that these diseases exist chiefly, if not wholly amongst those who are poverty-stricken, and covered with rage and surrounded by filth.
