it was too late. So much weakness on the part of Ad ministration gave new life to the Tiers-Parti, even maimed and beaten as it had been. Circumstances save it new force ; it showed signs of life ; began to agitate and become once more menacing. It had another leader, a respectable - character, one who had shown himself most wary and most independent. Upon him a wily and fascinating look was cast. He was summoned, flattered, told to assume the first place, which in his party he could not pretend to. But then he was to be a Colossus, supported on the two parties, and awing both. M. Mole fell into the trap, and from that moment another name was lost to the would-be Opposition. Here let us break off the chronicle for the time, although Heaven knows how it might be am plified and continued. Let this suffice as a sample of the, perhaps, too crafty spirit that presides over the af fairs of France. It is Mazarin again—the political though not the social Mazarin—a Mazarin honnete homme, and with him we see the Fronde again agita,': in a the streets and salons of Paris.—Morning Chroilide.° The Scotsman of Saturday last contains an admi rable article, having the title " A ;CV/ more words on the Brougham and Durham Controversy." "We can perfectly understand," obs,erves our Northern contem porary, " why the Conservative journals should seize every opportunity Co depreciate the Lord Chancellor ; but the rancour,with which he is pursued by a portion of what is called the Whig press, fills us with surprise and disgust. Frail would be a statesman's reputation, if it depended on the consistency and judgment of those who profess to be the organs of the public voice ; and popularity would indeed be precarious, and worthless beyond measure, if it were in the power of such parties to give or withhold it. Happily, however, there is an inborn sense of justice ameng mankind, which though it may be occasionally bewildered by sophistry or pre judice, seldom fails to assert its supremacy in the long run, and to indemnify those who have been the victims, for a time, of malice or misrepresentation." The attacks which have been so incessently directed against Lord Brougham, have injured him in the esti mation of no persons respecting whose good opinion be need be anxious. His services during the last twenty-five years are not to be blotted from the public recollection by a series of rancorous paragraphs. Lord Brougham can only destroy the reputation of Lord Brougham. But is there one sober-minded person throughout the country, who seriously believes that Lord Brougham has any other object in view than the improvement of our laws and institutions—the re medying of every recognized abuse ? We have a very favourable opinion of several members of the Cabinet. We do not believe their is one member of it more dis interested than Lord Brougham ; we are sure that there is not- one of them who has rendered half so much service to his country ; and we will add, that we do not believe there is one of them who is so much in spired by the wish to do good to the country as his Lordship. He may have failings which some of them arc without ; these are connected with the ardent temperament which belongs to him ; but, •on the other hand, the balance of positive excellency is certainly in his favour. We wish neither to flatter Lord Brougham nor to libel his colleagues, but to speak what we deem the truth. His colleagues are well aware that the labours of a long life are not obliterated from the public recollection in a day ; and we are sure there is not one of them who does not (whatever may be insinuated to the contrary) feel that the loss of his Lordship to the Cabinet would be irreparable. Of all the attempts made to lower him, that of the Times, on account of the Central Criminal Court Bill, is the most ridiculous. When was it ever before made a charge against a Minister, that the scheme which he proposed and persuaded Parliament to adopt was not his own ? The history of the au thorship of the measure is not worth a moment's no tice. If all that the TiMes states were true (which it is not), what does it signify ? The merit lies in the adoption of the measure. A hundred per sons might frame such a Bill. But there is a ma terial difference between conceiving a scheme, and obtaining the benefit of it for the country. We wish that our limits would allow us to in sert the whole of the excellent article from the Scotsman. We must content ourselves, for the pre sent, with the following extract :—" We are almost ashamed to dwell on charges like these, which, in the eye of common sense, amount to nothing. That pub lic man must, indeed, be tolerably pure against whom graver delinquencies cannot be produced ; but if any such can be alleged against the Chancellor, we pray his Whig accusers to enlighten our ignorance ; for we are unable to discover them. We can understand the Times. It acts under the impulse of mortified pride, and is blessed with a happy exemption from those feel ings which restrain the indulgence of malignant pas sions in others. We can understand the Radical journals, too, when they talk of the Chancellor's base ness,- falsehood, duplicity, treachery, and so forth— words which merely import in their mouth that he is on bad terms -with their hero, Lord Durham. All that passed between the two Peers we set aside. The Chancellor's conduct was not Prudent ; but, whether as regards private honour, or official confidence, we hold that Lord Durham is by much the greatest offender of the two. Let it be, however, that both are in the wrong. Even adopting the re presentations of their respective enemies, neither Isar, done more than men of pretty warm feelings have done, and always will do, when they have a quarrel. Lord BroughTsm's friends may regre t some words he used, but it is pure factiousness in those who vindi cate Lord Durham, to pretend that the Chancellor's character is injured by anything he I.as said or done in the controversy. If every tangible charge made against Lord Brougham were nese (for obscure insi nuations of. treachery and in.rrigue' go for nothing in such cases), it would scaocely affect the character of a public man of the most ordinary stamp. What is it, then, when weighed against the incessant, varied, and gigantic services of Henry Brougham for the last five and twenty years ! Passing over his early labours in the Edinburgh Review, he may be said to have entered upon life in 1808, when he made his cele brated speech at the bar of the House of Commons against the Orders in Council. He was r e t urne d a Mem ber in 1810, and, with the exception of one short inter val, has been in Parliament ever since. His energy, his courage, his talents, soon placed him at the head of the liberal party both in the House and at the Bar. For nearly 'a quarter of a century, he has been in the front rank of every battle fought on English ground, in the cause ofliberty and mankind. In the ten dismal years which preceded the death of Castlereagh, when Insurrection Bills, Gagging Bills, Disarmi ng Bill s , H a b eas C orpus uspension Bills, tyranny at home, and leagues with tyrants abroad, were the order of the day, the nervous elo quence of Henry Brougham was the main stay of the people's cause, cheering the friends of liberty, paralysing their enemies, and stifling many bad mea sures in their birth. What was said of an illustrious Frenchman might be applied to him in those dark times—that his genius was a power in Europe.' We have seen one great lawyer after another, Gibbs, Copley, Best, Scarlett, Plunkett, desert the popular side for office and emolument ; and now, forsooth, Henry Brougham, who has stood all trials for thirty years, and was a reformer in the worst times, is accused of abandoning his principles on the paltry grounds we have alluded to ! And all his vast labours in behalf of freedom, civil, political, and religious, of education, law reform, the abolition of slavery, and a thousand other objects of . deep interest to mankind, are forgotten ! It is not too much to say that his services in some one month of his career, outweigh all that Lord Durham has done, or can do, in the course of his life."—Morning Chronicle. The death of Earl Spencer, who expired in the af ternoon of last Monday, will make necessary a change in the interior (at least) of the Administration. As the Chancellor of the Exchequer must be a mem ber of the Lower House, Lord Althorp (now Earl Spencer) will of course retire from that prominent and active office. The most obvious consequence of this move is the loss to Government of a decidedly favourite leader of the House of Commons, and apart from all consideration of his Lordship's qualities as a states man, a financier, and a man of business, we can well understand how his impassible temper, together with a personal tearing conspicuously mild, courteous, and agreeable, should have gained the Noble Lord a vast number of suffrages in an assembly of English gentle- TIM SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1834, should not deem his position, elevated as it is—too sgfe.—Morning Advertiser. The Globe thought fit last night, in humble and distant imitation of Mr. O'Cannell, to impeach the correctness and impartiality of the Reporters for the Metropolitan Press. The occasion of this new im peachment is the fact that some. of the Morning Joutnals yesterdayof recorded, awhile others omitted 8 . 1 )7 . ; mention of, the hisses with which the health of Lord Brougham was received at the civic festival at Guildhall on the preceding day. Since there is dis crepancy in the accounts, it cannot be doubted that there must have been incorrectness on one side or the other, but the circumstances scarcely warrant the im putation of partiality. For our own report we can only say that its accuracy has been confirmed to our entire satisfaction, by the testimony of a great number of persons who were present at the scene which it described. Our Contempbrary cautions the Reporters against repeating the garbled and erroneous repre sentations of last Session. This is the language of a Journal very naturally dissatisfied with . the figure which the Reformed House of Commons made in the reports furnished during the last Session to the diurnal press of the metropolis. We, on the contrary, maintain that there never was a Session of Parliament in which greater justice was done to the debates of the two Houses of Parliament than in the last ; that the reports were generally faithful, accurate, and able ; and that whatever disappointment the advocates of the Reform Bill may have experienced is the fault not of the reporters, but of that House of Commons which the Reform Bill called into existence. It is a little hard upon the reporters that they should be stigma tised because a Lord Chancellor gets hissed at a city dinner, and Members of the House of Commons do not always conduct themselves with senatorial gravity and wisdom. The reporters of the daily press are men of every variety of political opinion. Their party pre dilections, when they have any, are always independent of, and not unfreonently adverse to, those professed by the journals to which they severally contribute., They are necessarily men of edneati. n and intelli gence. They are generally men of unquestionable in tegrity and honour. From their position they con stantly act upon each other at once as a stimulus and as a check. These circumstances supply the best guarantee for the general correctness and impartiality of their reports that can, we believe, be devised—a guarantee with which the public ought to be and is fully satisfied. Particular instances of deviation from the direct and honourable course there may have been. It would be miraculous indeed were it otherwise. But a fact may be confidently alleged in favour of the fi delity and discretion with which the reporters of the London press habitually discharge their arduous duty to the community, to which we believe no parallel is to be found in the history of any other body, public or private, namely, that their conduct, as a body, has never in a single instance been impeached, unless by men under the visible influence of disappointment, jealousy, or anger.—Morning Post. THE ATTEMPT AT MURDER AND ROB- BERY IN BATTERSEA-FIELDS. On Monday Willia»z Hill, the driver of one of the go.carts which ply at the Elephant. and Castle, was brought before Mr. Murray at Union Hall Police Office, charged on sus picion with being one of the parties concerned in the at tempt to rob and murder John Culley, a private in the Woolwich Division of Marines in Battersea-fields, on the night of Tuesday the 28th ult. The office was thronged during the investigation, the parochial authorities of Batter sea having taken up the matter with great zeal, i n conse quence of the daring nature of the outrage perpet ra t e d i n. the vicinity of their own dwellings. • residing on g William Roberts stated that - he is a car nte. ' at No. 10. Wellington-street, Ne,-....in,t0n and z': Tuesday night, the 28th of vate ‘../ctober, he went i n t o th e Rockingham Arms, at i: oe - corner of the New Kent-road, nearly opposite to tilt? Elephant and Castle, b e t ween the hours of s'a: and seven o'clock. He then saw a pri to the marines standing at the bar in `,onipany with the prisoner and two other men, whom he should• know again. The marine appeared to have been drinking, and he heard him say that he wanted to go to Battersea, and inquired if he could have a cab to go there ? The prisoner said that he could have one of the flies which plied there, and witness heard the marine agree to go by that conveyance, saying that it was all right. The prisoner had on an old blue frock coat at the time.—(At this examination the prisoner wore a drab great coat, which covered nearly the whole of his person.)—The witness added, that he then left the Rockingham Arms, leaving the marine, the prisoner, and the two other men standing in front of the bar drinking. Witness thought no more of the circumstance until last Saturday:evening he read an ac count in the newspapers of an attempt to rob and murder a soldier in Battersea-fields, and it immediately occurred to him that the parties he had seen at the Rockingham Arms were those to - whom it referred. He therefore lost no time in acquainting the police of the circumstance, and at the same time gave a description of the prisoner to policeman 102, of the M division._ _ Mr. MURRAY.—Look at the prisoner attentively, and Slate whether you have any doubt as to the identity of his person ? The witness said tl:at he had frequent opportunities of seeing the prisoner as he passed the Elephant and Castle previously to the night in question, so that be was quite confident as to his identity, and also to the fact of his having had a blue frock coat on at the time. The prisoner's legal adviser here stated that he went down to Woolwich, and saw the man upon whom the out rage was committed, and that he gave a different account of it from that which had first appeared. Mr. MURRAY, upon hearing' this, addressed the person who had last spoken, and said that as he was attending pro fessionally for the accused, it was, to say the least of it, very injudicious in him to have had any intercourse or conversa tion with the marine on the subject of the charge against his client. The prisoner's advisers said that he merely went down to see how the marine was ; that he did not go there for the purpose of putting any questions to him, but merely to hear whether he implicated an innocent man, now in custody, and who had undergone an examination at that office on Friday, charged on suspicion with being the driver of the go-cart in which the parties who committed the outrage, went down from town to Battersea ; (the person alluded to was exa mined at this office on Friday, his name is Woodroffe, and on the following day be was committed to Brixton, for ac sorting andgeneral ill-treatment of his wife). Mr. MURRAY, again addressing the attorney, said, that as the legal adviser of the prisoner, he should have had no communication with the marine, as by the line of conduct lie had pursued on the occasion, he only exposed himself to observation. The witness Roberts, in answer to questions put by the solicitor, said that the blue coat worn by the prisoner on the n;ght in question reached down about to his knees. He did not see any of the parties leave the Rockingham Arms, having left before they did. • He heard the men, whO were drinking with the marine at the above house, when he in quired if lie could not ride tiown to Battersea, say in answer, " It's all right, •:.e 'will take you." Mr. M. yaker- itn stated that when the witness Roberts gave him 11,-)^1" information of what had transpired a t th e ' ~itmgham Arms, he proceeded to Caroline-place, West square, and there apprehended the prisoner at his lodgings. On examining the apartment he found an old blue frock coat cut up lying in a cupboard.—(The coat was here produced with the tails cut off, and other parts also cut, net worn.)—The witness also produced a shirt worn by the prisoner when taken into custody with spots of blood on the left wrist. The prisoner here exclaimed " That old coat of mine was cut up about six weeks ago to make me a waistcoat, and I can prove it. The stains of blood," said he, "on that shirt came from my own person."—He here pulled up his shirt sleeves, and exhibited the lower part of his arms, on which a rash was visible, and said that some days ago he drank a draught of cold water while he was in a state of perspiration, and afterwards a rash broke out all over his body, and that it was the blood which issued from his wrist that stained the shirt in the manner it then appeared. Inspector Brown, of the M division, on being sworn, stated that on Sunday morning, while he was on duty at the station-house in the Southwark Bridge-road, the pri soner, who was then in custody, expressed a wish to com municate something to him with respect to the outrage at Battersea. After having been told that whatever he might say upon the subject would be again related when he was brought before a Magistrate, the prisoner proceeded to say that ha was at the Rockingham Arms, along with the ma rine aad two other men, whose names he knew, on the night of the 28th ult., and that the marine treated them. and ;lave him a glass of rum and a glass of gin to drink. That -during the time they were standing at the bar, the math) a having expressed a wish to go to Battersea, he (the priso aer) undertook to procure a fly for him, and accord ingly went and got one off the Elephant and Castle stand. The prisoner further said to witness, that he did not ac con' pany the marine and the other men to Battersea, but rely .ained in town ; and he also complained to the inspector of he hardship of being taken into custody on a charge of 311 he was innocent, and said that he should tell the names. of the men who went in the cart with the wounded fietgeant *Craw, of the M division, was also present when the prisoner made the above voluntary statement. Mi. MURRAY here asked the prisoner if he wished to make any statement relative to the 'charge ; that it was not compulsory on his part to do so, but that if he did he (the Magistrate) was bound to hear what be had to say. Pri soner—l saw tbe_soldier on last Tuesday night week at the Rockingham Arms, and he wanted to go to Battersea, and I fetched a young man, the driver of a go-cart, to him, and they agreed, but I did not go myself. (The prisoner here stopped.) Mr. MURRAY—no you wish to say any thing else ? Pri soner—Not at present. Mr. MURRAY said that he should hear what evidence the prisoner thought proper to produce relative to the blue frock coat found at his lodgings, and which he stated had been cut up six weeks ago to make him a waistcoat. Elizabeth Pegg was then called, and she stated that she knew the prisoner, and was in the frequent habit of being at hislodgings. She knew that he used to wear a blue frock coat. Mr. MURRAY—What has become of that coat. Wit ness—lt was cut up. Mr. AIURRAY—How long ago is it since it was cut up? Witness—About a month ago, I think. Mr. MURRAY—Refresh your memory, and recollect as near as you can the precise day on which it took place. The witness, after some deliberation—lt was last Wednesday week, I now recollect, that the coat was cut up. Mr. MURRAY--What makes you so certain now as to the day ? Witness—The reason is that I was present at the time, and it was about ten o'clock in the morning. Ever since then, the prisoner has worn the drab coat he now has on. Mr. MURRAY—Did you see the prisoner on last Tues day night week, the day previous to that on which you have stated you saw the coat cut up? Witness—Yes, I saw him on that night, and he was at borne by nine o'clock. Mr. MURRAY—What makes you so certain upon that point ? Witness —He is always at home to his supper at nine o'clock, and he was at home on that night as well as others. Mr. Munnav—Have you had any conversation with the prisoner relative to the coat ? Witness—None ; but I was present- when the policeman fetched it away from his lodgings. The MAGISTRATE, after having remarked on the variance in the statements of the prisoner and the witness be Called with respect to the coat, remanded the former until the wounded man is enabled to attend. Mr. Mills, a gentleman residing at Battersea, who has taken great interest in the proceedings, told the Magistrate that since Culley's removal from the Hospital Board at Knightsbridge Barracks to Woolwich, he had called at the latter place to see him. Culley, although severely wounded in the face, and very much bruised about the body from the kicks of his desperate assailants while lying on the ground, was now getting better. He (Mr. Mills) had seen the Ad jutant of the division to which he belonged, who gave him a most excellent character. Culley said that he thought that he should be enabled to identify the parties by whom he had been attacked and robbed, and had a perfect recol lection of his having been struck in the face with a knife or some sharp weapon. That the blow was given with such force as to divide his nose, and he then fell to the ground, and was kicked in the body until he was reduced to a state of insensibility. Yesterday the young man upon whom the outrage and robbery had been recently committed in Battersea Fields was conveyed from the Marine Barrael , ..3 at Woolwich, the medical officer_having given it as his opinion that his exa mination at the office would not be attended with any de gree of danger now. The wounded man was accompanied by the sergeant of the division to which he belongs, besides Mr. Mills, of Battersea, and Sergeant M'Craw, of the M was a n n: m ne e d a o t n t e l) re precedingday, gei a n h v o est a i i g ,o a t t te n r division. At . three o' c l oc k i n t h e a f ternoon Hill, th e man e of the m wh an o , RAY, and Mr. EL GARiI , it is necessary to withh o ld, were brought before Mr. Muir examinatio,n. 'I l• marine, of the county Magistrates, for rine, upon entering the office, ap peared oe in a very weak and debilitated state, which 7.„, principally attributable to the quantity of blood he lost on the night lie was attacked. His face was pale and emaciated, and the principal injury he seemed to have sus tained was the wound which extended down the length of the nose, and which was strapped over with adhesive plais t-_tr ; in fact his - appearance was so much altered from that rrevious to the outrage as to render it a matter of some difficulty for the witnesses who had seen him in the com pany of the parties suspected of the offence, to recognise him again as the same person. Mr. MURRAY on seeing the complainant immediately directed that he might be accommodated with a chair, and, addressing him, desired that he would not agitate himself, but give his evidence slowly, and not exert himself so as to aggravate his weakly condition of body. On being sworn, he stated his name to be Edward Cub ley, instead of Culley, and that lie was a private in the Royal Marines. He remembered Tuesday, the 28th of October, on which day he obtained a furlough from his Commanding Officer, and left Woolwich for the purpose of corning to town. He stopped on the way at Greenwich, and had some refreshment there with a young man, an ac= quaintance of his, in the course of which they drank to the extent of three or four pots of porter. From thence he came on by himself to town, and stopped at the Rockingham Arms, near the Elephant and Castle, where be had two pints of porter, a penny loaf, and some butter. At this time it was getting rather dark, the gas lamps being lit. He remained in the above house about half an hour, and then went away and walked along for some time, and as he in tended to go to the house of the Rev. Mr. Weddell, of Bat tersea, he inquired of a stranger the way to that place. He then walked on for some distance further, and again inquired of another man whom he met, and who walked by his side. As lie was walking side by tide with the man he had last spoken to, the latter turned suddenly upon him and struck him upon the bridge of the nose with something sharp, and with such force as to knock him down and render him in sensible. He added that he had no remembrance of any thing afterwards until his wounds were being dressed at the house of the surgeon in Battersea-square. In reply to Mr. MURRAY, the complainant stated that he had no recollection of having entered into conversation with any men at the Rockingham Arms. He left that house alone, and did not remember getting into a go-cart or any other vehicle. The MAGISTRATE here desired Hill, the man who was examined on the preceding day, might stand forward, in order to ascertain whether the complainant could recog nize him. Hill, it will be remembered, was seen in the company of the marine at the Rockingham Arms, and when the former was taken into custody he made a volun tary statement to Inspector Brian, in which he made an ad mission that he was drinking with the complainant at the above house on the night in question, that he afterwards procured a go-cart for him to ride to Battersea, but that lie did not proceed there with him. Hill also save the names of the driver of the go-cart, and the three men sus pected of having committed the outrage, and who since it occurred have kept out of the way, Mr. MURRAY, addressing the complainant, desired him to look at the prisoner Hill, and state whether he had any recollection of ever having seen him before. The complainant, in reply, said that he had not. Mr. MURRAY—Then you don't remember seeing him at the Rockingham Arms ? The complainant again answered in the negative. Mr. MURRAY, addressing the prisoner Hill, said, " You made a voluntary statement before me yesterday, in which you said that you were one of the men who was in com pany with the marine at the Rockingham Arms on the e ight of the 22d ult. Have you anything further to add to it ?" Hill said that he had nothing further to say than that he was there when the marine came in ; that he drank with him ; and that he afterwards procured a go-cart for him to go to Battersea. Mr. MURRAY asked the complainant whether he was not intoxicated at the time, and the reply was that he was not. This avowal, however, was contradicted by Roberts, the carpenter, who, it will be remembered, was the person who gave information to the police in the first instance, which led to the discovery of the names of the parties suspected to have been concerned in the outrage. A Mr. Matthews was also called, and he stated that he was at the Rockingham Arms on the night the marine called there, and that the latter was evidently intoxicated at the time. The witness also heard him bargaining with the men to take him to Battersea in a go-cart. He added that he could identify the men, and immediately pointed out Hill as one of the parties whom the marine was treating at the Rockingham Arms, on the night in question. In reply to Mr. MURRAY, the complainant said that he had thirty shillings when he left Woolwich, ten shillings of which he placed in his knapsack, and he was robbed of the whole of it, except what lie spent on the road, and two shillings and sixpence which was found in his purse, after the outrage was committed on him. Mr. MURRAY here directed the attention of the com plainant to another man in custody (whose name at present it is necessary to suppress), and asked him whether he re collected having met with him at the Rockingham Arms ? This last prisoner has made a confession of great import ance to the case, implicating other parties in the outrage ; but at this stage of the inquiry it is considered requisite not to publish it, as it might tend to defeat the ends of public justice. The complainant having looked earnestly at the accused, said that he had some recollection of having seen him as he was leaving the Rockingham Arms to proceed to Battersea. Mr. MURRAY said that, from all that had yet transpired respecting the investigation, it was probable that some mix ture of a deleterious nature had been put into the liquor, which the complainant had been drinking on the night men tioned. It was evident that he had but a very imperfect recollection of what had occurred after he once entered the Rockingham Arms, and met with the men suspected of having committed the outrage upon him. He (the Magis trate) should therefore remand the two priscners, in order to give the necessary time for the apprehension of other parties implicated in the offence. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET. Yesterday afternoon, just at the closing of the regular business of this office, Francis Valentine Lee, Esq., a bar rister on the Oxford Circuit, as well as in the metropolitan Courts, was brought up on a warrant by Goddard the officer, on a charge of having used abusive epithets and threatening language to W. Shutt, Esq., one of the Ma gistrates of the M arylebone Police-office, with intent to ex cite him to the commission of a breach of the peace. Pritchard Godson, Esq., M.P., attended as the friencl of Mr. Lee, and Mr. C. Phillips, the barrister, as (we believe) the mutual friend of the complainant and defendant. Mr. HALLS, the Magistrate, who granted the warrant, retired with the parties to a private room for the purpose of hearing the case, but the reporters made application to know if it was intended that it should be a private exami nation ? _ _ Mr. HALLS immediately desired that the reporters should be admitted, and saw no particular occasion for privacy, adding, he was sure they would abstain from publishing any matter which would necessarily wound the feelings of either of the gentlemen concerned, Mr. Shutt having been sworn, the information which had been taken from him in writinc , at the time the warrant was issued was read over to him, and was to the following effect : " William Shutt, Esq., one of his Majesty's Justices of the Peace of the Police Office, Marylebone, maketh oath and saki', that on Saturday last, the Bth of November, the defendant, Francis Valentine Lee, met him in Regent street, and stopping him, told him he was a liar, a scoun drel, and a coward, and said, I have a great mind to horse whip you,' at the same time holding out his whip In rather a threatening attitude. By this language and the manner of the defendant, witness had no doubt that Mr. Lee in tended to excite him to commit a breach of the peace." Mr. Shutt having signed this deposition, Mr. HALLS, addressin g Mr. Lee, said,--I will put it to your own intelligence and experience, Sir, that if you admit having used the words sworn to, they are quite sufficient to compel me to bold you to bail. Ido not think it absolutely neeessary for the purposes of this inquiry, that the circum stances which gave rise to it should he entered into ; but at the same time I beg you to understand that I am perfectly ready to bear any statement that you may have to make. Mr. Lee—As a professional man, I am fully aware that this is not the time or place, strictly speaking, to make any statement beyond the mere admission or denial of the words imputed to me ; but I am quite prepared to enter into all the circumstances of the case. I received a communication some time ago, stating that when a friend of mine, who sought to be admitted a member of the Clarence Club, was about to be ballotted for, Mr. Shutt, in a conversation with Mr. Bulkeley Williams, said he (Mr. Shutt) objected to him, or intended to object to him, because he was the associate of blackguards. Mr. Williams said, " Can you point out any one black guard with whom he associates ?" " Yes," was Mr. Shutt's reply, " I will tell you one—Valentine Lee, of the Oxford Circuit, because I have called him a liar to'his face with impunity, and he did not resent it ; but," added Mr. Shutt to Mr. Williams, " I make this communication to you in confidence." " Good God," said Mr. Williams, "Do you think I can receive such a communication in confidence ? Certainly not ;" and the conversation was on the following day communicated to me. Here Mr. Lee produced rather a voluminous correspon dence, and said,—l have here letters which will fully Here Mr. Shutt rose, and interrupting Mr. Lee, with an appeal to Mr. Halls, said,—The case is not, I trust, to be tried here, and I object to the reading of those letters to which Mr. Lee refers. Mr. Lee—But I wish to state all the circumstances, and the Magistrate has given me leave to do so. Mr. HALLS-1 certainly did say I was willing to hear anything you might wish to state ; but if you lmit the words, and I believe you will not deny them, it is quite sufficient authority for me to direct you to find sureties - to keep the peace. Mr. Lee—l admit the words with one exception-. Ido not believe I made use of the word " scoundrel." I admit that I called Mr. Shutt a liar, a blackguard, and a coward, but Ido not remember the term " scoundrel." I might, however, have used it. Mr. Charles Phillips here observed that perhaps his friend Mr. Shutt would be satisfied with a promise from Mr. Lee that he would not again annoy him in the street. Mr. Lee (with a careless sort of air and smiling)—O, I have no objection to make a promise of that kind. I have accomplished my object, and that is all I could desire. I shall not condescend to notice Mr. Shutt at all'in future in the street or anywhere else. Mr. HALLS suggested that perhaps an apology from Mr. Lee for the terms which he had used would not be ob jected to. Mr. Shutt wanted no apology. Mr. Lee—Nor shall I make one under any circumstances. Mr. Shutt said Mr. Lee was at liberty to say anything he chose privately, but he would not be insulted in the public streets. Mr. Lee—Once more I admit using the terms men tioned. I thought as I spoke then, and I think so now, and see no reason whatsoever to withdraw one syllable of what I said. Mr. HALLS said a warrant had been issued upon this complaint, and he did not like to take promises in cases of this kind, because, generally speaking, both parties were in the wrong. If Mr. Shutt, however, was satisfied with the promise made by Mr. Lee that he would not again annoy him in the street, there was of course an end of the matter, but otherwise Mr. Lee must give bail. Mr. Shutt—After what Mr. Lee has just now said, I shall insist upon bail, certainly. Mr. Lee had rather give bail at once than have any fur ther controversy, and said he supposed the worthy Magis trate would not object to his friend Mr. Phillips for one surety. Mr. HALLS (laughing)—O, certainly not. Charles Phillips, Esq., of Bedford-square, and Pritchard Godson, Esq., M.P., were then bound in recognizances of 1001. each, and Mr. Lee in 2001., for the appearance of the latter at the Sessions, and meanwhile to keep the peace to wards all his Majesty's subjects, and towards W. Shutt, Esq., in particular. The parties then retired. Q UEEN- S Q UARE. Yesterday Charles Swaine, in the employ of Mr. Bush, of Little James-street, Gray's Inn-lane, appeared to a sum mons taken out against him by Lord Tullamore before Mr. WHITE for furiously driving a horse and cart in the public streets, and breaking the pannels of his Lordship's cabriolet. Mr. WHITE told him that the damage was estimated at five guineas ; be, however, had no power to order him to pay more than 51. for the damage. He was also liable to a penalty of forty shillings for furiously driving, but he would mitigate that penalty to ten shillings and costs. The defendant offered to pay five shillings per week. Mr. WHITE told him that he must make his own arrange ments. If the money was not paid he must commit him to the House of Cerrection. The money was not paid, and the defendant was locked up. LAMBETH-STREET. AN ACTRESS IN A NEW CHARACTER. - Among t h e disorderlies brought to this Office was Mrs. Blanchard, the wife of the late, and mother to the present, comedian of that name, who was charged with being drunk, and in capable of taking care of herself on the night before. Police constable Cumming, H 186, on the preceding night, at about half-past eleven o'clock, while on duty in East Smithfield, observed the prisoner roll over once or twice on the foot pavement. Supposing it to have been the result of accident, he assisted her up, and put her fairly on her legs again ; but she had not proceeded mer than half a dozen steps before she had another roll on the pave ment. He again assisted her, and not wishing, from the respectability of her appearance, to take her to the station house, he assisted her on for some distance, when he thought she would be enabled to go along ; but finding that she had got worse, and that she refused to give her ad dress, he felt it to be his duty, in justice to the lady herselF, to take her to the station-house. On their arriving there his charge made an excellent use of her tongue, over which, very different from her limbs, she appeared to exercise the most perfect control. She assumed all the air and dig nity of a duchess, and told constables, inspectors, and ail that she would make them suffer on the next day for pre suming to, interfere with her, or depriving her of her li berty ; but being decidedly drunk she was detained for her personal safety. Mrs. Blanchard, who is seventy-four years of age, and was rather fantastically attired, assured the Magistrate that she was overcome more from fatigue than anything she had taken. The fact was that she had come all the way from Vauxhall, and, her shoe-strings pinching her, she stooped down to adjust them, when the policeman came up, and took her to the station-house. . _ Mr. WALKER. hoped her shoe-strings would not pinch her so tight for the future, and discharged the old lady, advi sing her to be a little more cautious for the future. Sunday the 2d inst. the wife of Thomas Wilson, servant in Lainshaw, was safely delivered of three female children, who, with the mother, are alive. and doing well. The mother has had no children these ten years past. — Glasgow Chronicle. men. But there are other quarters of no less importance to a Finance Minister, than the House of Commons is to a Leader, where it does not appear that Lord Althorp has succeeded in acquiring equal popularity. We mean the commercial' and monied interest, and pre eminently the city of London. His Lordship's career as a Chancellor of the Exchequer being now termi nated, it may be proper to abstain from what under different circumstances might have been justified as sa lutary and even necessary animadversion upon his er roneous measures of finance, and on the causes of the;:, notorious failure. To dwell at this moment 'on such mistakes might seem no better than it' . ;;clious harsh- ness. We hope_ that his succesF . ;„. may exhibit a more ample and well-digested Inowledge of the public re sources, and come 'oetter prepared both to defend his measures an to execute them. Who that successor will Us we cannot vet do more than conjecture, if so . intich. Mr. Spring Rice has, it seems, been desig nated by members of the monied interest, and, we believe, by his colleagues, as Chancellor of the Exchequer, on the event which has now ac tually taken place. But before one can form any confident opinion of his fitness, it would be desirable to ascertain what personal share he had in the suggestion and preparation of those budgets which ostensibly were the work cf Lord Althorp. - However, if Mr. Spring Rice has reason to appre hend such a decline of his interest with the liberal constituency of Cambridge, as to deter him from risk ing an immediate re-election for that borough, the trouble of transferring the Right Hon. Gentleman to the Exchequer will be spared to the Noble Lord at the head of his Majesty's Councils. At the same time we are bound to add, that as yet no just ground appears for a falling off of the liberal party from Mr. S. Rice, in the very short period which has elapsed since his accession to the Colonial Office. In case of Mr. S. Rice vacating the Colonial Department, a se cond question arises as to who shall fill it. The pre sent Lord Spencer's earnest wish, it is said, is to retire into private life ; and without meaning in any ‘cnse to disparage the weight which Lord Mel bourne may fairly attach .to the experience, the name, and upright character of this Nobleman, it is unquestionable that since his chief value to the Government was as leader of the House of Commons, his secession from the Cabinet would now be less felt than while a member of that assembly. Should the Noble Lord remain in the Government, one of two arrangements has been talked of as practicable. Ist. That he should become Secretary for the Colonies —a post for which we know not whether his Lord ship's habits of inquiry or the nature of his information have fitted him ; albeit the delivery of the seals by the Sovereign has usually (if we judge from some of the persons who have received them) been held a sufficient, as it was, indeed, the •nly, guarantee for their other qualifications. This failing, it has been supposed-2d, That Lord Spencer would go to the Admiralty, an office requiring labour and the love of justice —not, perhaps, the least rare among the attributes of public men, but certainly among those for which his Lordship has always had credit. Should Lord Mulgrave, on the other hand, go to the Colonial-office, a department with which his adminis tration in Jamaica may' have given him a competent. acquaintance, we have no doubt that Lord Auckland would be fully competent to discharge the duties of Lord Privy Seal. In the calculation of chances—for at present it is nothing more—we have amused our selves with the foregoing hints for others to consider or improve upon. Knowledge of what is intended we have none ; on the contrary, our persuasion is, that nothing positive has yet been fixed as to the future, The choice of a Leader of the House of Commons will be the most perplexing of all that class of difficul ties. We suppose there are few who would think Mr. Spring Rice competent to that delicate task. It is not for us to pronounce an opinion, but it may be said that . Mr. Abercromby has most experience and tact. Has he also sufficient nerve and strength ? , Times. Earl Spencer has at length paid the debt of nature I —an event to which the public has been lookinis ward for s ome ti me past, and in conseque:;,ce not un, expected, ; but which is important, as bereaving at once the House of Commons of its Ministerial Leader, and. the Government of a Chancellor of the Exchequer. F.arl Spencer died at half-past two o'clock on 'Mon day, at his scat in Northamptonshire, after having attained the good old age of 77. His Lordship had long been ailing, in' consequence of various infiimities, and was ultimately carried off by an attack of gout in the shoulder, involving, as a consequence, palpitation of the heart, against which his powers were too much debilitated to bear up. He was attended with filial affection and care, throughout the last three weeks of his illness, by his eldest son, Lord Althorp, who succeeds to his titles and honours, and by his elevation to the P‘zerage leaves the representation of the southern division of Northamptonshire open to contest, and the office of Chancellorship of the EXchequer vacant. Th.e late Earl Spencer was born on the Ist of Sept., 1:7Z8, and was a Knight of the Garter, and a Fellow of the Royal and Antiquarian Societies. He was be aides a Privy Councillor, a Governor of the Charter House, an Elder Brother of the Trinity House, a Trustee of the British Museum, and High Steward of St. Alban's ; he succeeded his father a.i second Earl Spencer when he was 25 years of age, and has since that period been more or less a public character, at tached unchangingly throughout to those principles of Whig policy which have so signally triumphed in the reform of Parliament, and subsequent measures. Of late years he has scarcely been heard of in the po litical arena—increasing years and increasing infirmi ties, as well as the part taken by his son in all the main questions of the day, having unquestionably indisposed him to assume any prominent part. His chief ce lebrity arises, first, from his having been First Lord of the Admiralty at the period of the most brilliant success of our navy, and, secondly, from his having been 'one of the most, if not the most expensive collectors of ancient and curious works of whom this or any other country has ever heard. In both respects his Lordship has strong titles to remem brance ; and we are not aware that his memory ought not to be held in grateful recollection by his friends and dependents. The death of Earl I Spencer is, however, a minor matter compared with the change or changes to which the elevation of his son to the House of Lords will necessarily give occasion. As a Peer he can neither hold the office of Chancellor of the Exchequer or of leader of the House of Commons ; and the question is, who is be his suc cessor ? As financiers, Sir Henry Parnell and Pou lett Thomson are unquestionably the most fit, because most acquainted with the business and duties of a Chancellor of the Exchequer; but then the very naturally occurs, whether their rank and stand ing would enable them to obtain that ..:onfldence from the House of Commons which, - we need scarcely say, is indispensably necessary to, rtie successful execution of the ministerial busin:ss ? We have doubts on this subject, in consequence of the highly aristocratic tone and aristocratic prejudices of the House of Commons, though we have no doubt of the fitness of the parties— we w(Juld even say their extreme fitness for the office. The, next name on the list is that of the Colonial secretary, Mr. Spring Rice ; but of him, though re , spectable in point of attainments, and well calculated for the office as a man of diligent and attentive habits, we must say that he is not exactly the maii who is calculated to lead the House of Cominom. Nothing has as yet been decided upon, and, in all pro bability, nothing will be decided On for some days to come. The present, therefore, is a favourable oppor tunity for telling his Majesty's Ministers that there must be no trifling in filling up the important office which has now become vacant,--that they require strength above all things in the House of Commons, and that if they do not seize the opportunity of adding to their forces in that quarter by the appointment of an efficient representative, they may very confidently reckon upon great danger to their tenure of power during the ensuing Session. From the Tories, notwithstandin g all their attempts at popularity, and all their fond anti cipations of power, nothing is to be dreaded ; but from the combined attacks of Tories and Radicals, coupled with the disappointment of public expectations—ther e is more than ground for alarm. - 1, 9r 4 Melbourne man.
