By an extraordinay Express from Marseilles, we have news from India to the 9th of January inclusive. A merchant steamer, which left Bombay for Suez on the 9th, brought an Indian mail, which was conveyed from Alexandria to Marseilles by the Gorgon packet, where it was lauded on the night of the 22d inst. The only intelligence from China is the announcement that the British troops have taken Mangkowfow. From Affghanistan the latest news is of the sth of December. Co:onel APURE/4', who was cent to relieve General Sir R. SALE, had failed in opening a way to him, so that his position was exceedingly dangerous. He was still surrounded by Affghan hordes. There was a for midable renewal of the attempt to cut off the British troops, but the assailants had the worst of it. On the 27th ult. the new Protestant Bishop of Pales tine made his public entry into the city of Jerusalem. His Lordship was well received by the authorities, who appeared to entertain the greatest veneration for his sacred character. We hare every respect for royalty, and especially for that exhibited in the person of our Gracious QUEEN, who, ever since her accession to the throne, has conducted herself with a degree of propriety, ji.dgment, and na tional spirit which entitle her to the love and gratitude of all her people. On this account we are anxious that no step should be taken by her Ministers to diminish the high esteem in which she is held by all classes, and by none more than even the poorest of her subjects, and we, therefbre, see with great regret a Parliamentary paper issued yesterday, entitled " Civil List Pensions." Some of the grants are highly commendable. To Mr. DEAsE, who has distinguished himself by geographical discoveries on the northern coast of America, the Go vernment have granted a pension of 100/. ; to Mr, BURGES, a Greek scholar (to whom the Bishop of LON DON is not fit to hold the candle), 1001. ; to the Rev. THOMAS KIDD, 100 L ; Mr. WEBSTER, the geologist, 501.; Mr. THORPE, for his services rendered to literature, 401. But before all these stand the names of six persons —one a teacher of German, another a writing-master, a third a French master, a fourth a dancing-mistress, and two teachers of singing and music—all of wt om are to re ceive loot. each for having had the high honour, and the high profit too, of instructing her MAJESTY. Using the words of Lord LIVERPOOL towards a nobleman, whom he thought had already been overpaid for his services— " This is too bad." Could Sir ROBERT PEEL find no more fit subjects for favour, than persons of this description, who may be all very good in their way, but who, like the noble diplomatist, had no doubt- been amply paid for their services ? Mr. BURGES and Mr. DEASE will find it profitable, but they cannot consider it honourable to be ranked with such companions. Above all, we regret such grants for the sake of her MAJESTY, for the act of her Ministry will, to a certain extent, be attributed to herself, amt the public will learn with sorrow that the pension list set apart for the re.\ ard of humble merit, as well as distinguished public services. is destined rather to be a prize for Court favourites or foreign adventurers. It is clear from the Parliamentary divisions which have already taken place on the Corn-law question, that the advocates of total repeal cannot in any way influ ence the measure brought forward by Sir ROBERT PEEL. The ninety Members who voted fur Mr. VILLIERS' motion are powerless for good. We therefore think that they could not render a greater service to the country than by adopting the suggestion of Mr. WALLACE, of walk ing out - of the House, and leavng to the Tories the labour, and the odium of regulating the taxation of the nation's food. By withdrawing . from the House whenever the Corn-laws are discussed, they will deprive an odious law of any sanc,ion which it might receive from their presence during the divisions upon it. Such a protest against the Bill would not fail to be rightly un derstood out of doors. Our accounts from Madrid are of the 19th inst. On that day General MENDEZ VICO addressed a few ques tions to Ministers relative to Portugal, to which the Minister for Foreign Affairs replied with great reserve. The Minister of Finance demanded, on the 19th, to be empowered to issue Treasury bonds to the amount of 160,000,000 reals. The Funds recovered on the 18th. The Actives having been done at 30 for cash. On the 19th no cash transamtion was negotiated, the Active selling at 31, at 60 days. Ti.e French Opposition JOurnals are exceedingly wroth with England, for presuming to ratify, in con junction with Austria, Russia, and Prussia, the new Slavery Suppression Treaty, without waiting for the final decision of France. They will have it that a deli berate insult has been offered to her, the stain of which can only be washed out with blood. There is no pleas ing the Opposition Press of France, or the conduct of the Great Powers would inspire admiration. For what are the circumstances of the case ? The Treaty, as it now stands, was drawn up at the suggestion of the French Government ; it was by France, in conjunction with England, presented to the Cabinets of Berlin, Vienna, and Petersburgh ; her diplomatists exerted all their in fluence to induce the Northern Powers to sign it., yet when they afterwards do honour to their engagements, the Republican Press has the effrontery to affirm that France has been insulted, and to threaten war. " What a fine opportunity there is now for France," exclaims the National, " to resume the high position which was once held by her navy. Prussia has no ships ; Austria keeps her ships in the Adriatic ; and Russia will take care not to scatter her fleet to pro tect negro slaves, having too many white slaves of her own. There is in reality only England which, as regards the point in question, has an immense interest of supre macy. To make head against England, we have in alliance with us the United States, Holland, Swe den, Naples, Spain, Portugal, all the secondary navies which are kept down by her yoke, and which are more or less insulted and devastated by England. With these unite l t'f rues e should have a formidable association, and be able to check that British pride, whose ambition ant cupidity are without bounds. The moment is favourable. A portion of the treasure and navy of England is e nployed in the sterile war in China—a war ignominious in principle, without glory, and without grandeur ; the East India Company is in deficit, and is sinking under its burthens ; the Eng lish troops in Altlianistan are surrounded by perils ; Russia has never allowed to pass by without profit an opportunity of harassing and weakening her enemy in Central Asia, and her hand has ever been held out for the encouragement of the agitations in the English pos sessions. The Cabinet at Washington, in its turn, has its eye on all the breaches- in the power of England, and is eager to enlarge them. The opportunity, then, is a favourable one for restraining, by an imposing coalition, the mania for invasion, the effrontery of usurpation, with which Great Britain has for the last thirty years Ibeen acting." Here we have the whole plan of a gigantic war involving Europe and America, chalked out at once. The United States, Rolland, Sweden, Naples, Spain, Portugal, and England, are to dye the ocean with their blood, because France, after breaking her engagements, fancies that those who do not imitate her bad faith, in sult her. The Commerce is still more violent than the National, and the Constitutionnel is nearly as stark mad as either of them. In fact, the warlike hubbub of the Opposition Press of France is nearly as loud and as violent, without being half as sensible, as the hurricane raised by the settlement of the Eastern question. We have received the following letter : " Toncors, FEB. I B.—lt is now certain that the following ships of the line, the Friedland, Jemappes, Genereux, and Vile de Mar. seille, will shortly return to th e port of Toulon. Orders have been I sent to them to that effect. Some persons think it is intended to I assemble a squadron here to be ready in case we should have to interfere in Portugal or in Spain. It is more probable that the Government means to disarm. " It is said that the ships of the line at Brest will be placed en commission de port, and that there will be eight at Toulon in the same situation. At that rate the Government will keep only six ships of the line completely armed. "The Levant squadron, under Admiral Lasusse, is to be re duced by two ships of the line."—Constitutionnel, Feb. 94. The Sentineue of Toulon, has the following article : " The difficulties on the subject of Greece and Tunis having been settled at Constantinople by our Ambassador, part of the squadron, under the command of Admiral Lasusse, has, it is said, received orders to return to Toulon. Among those expected back are the Friedland, Vile de Marseille, and Genereux of the line. It is added that a squadron, for practice, is to be formed in our port, and which will be increased by some ships from Brest. This last rumour appears to us to be just as probable as the first. If consideration be given to the complications likely to arise on the ocean, from the present state of the relations between England and the United States, it is very probable that by the end of May, we shall have an imposing force assembled in our roadstead, composed of eleven ships of the line, and five large frigates."

We have con tinually cautioned the graziers on this subject ; and now the manufacturers have been driven to use foreign wool, and to substitute cotton instead of our own wool, which of late years has been higher than the trade could afford. The gra zier has withheld his wool from the market, until the time has come when the mischief will fall on his own head. We ex_ Peet it will be the same in corn : the farmers will be looking for higher prices, until the country is filled with foreign corn under the new regulations; then the evil of an insufficient price will be s een—brought on by the want of foresight and the obstinacy . of our own cultiv ators. --Leicester Journal.

CIOURT-- PASHIONAMILM. It is now finally arranged that the Queen leaves Brighton on Monday for Portsmouth. Sir Edward Codrington arrived at the Pavilion on Thursday for instructions, and left next day in the Black Eagle steamer, which is to be in readiness for her Majesty at Portsmouth. The Marquis of Lansdowne has commenced his dinner parties in Berkeley-square. The Earl of Powis arrived in Berkeley-square on Wednesday last, from Wolcot Park. Lord N. Russell is on a visit to General Hare, in Lincolnshire. The Dowager Lady Holland recommences her dinner and even ing parties next week. Mr. Byng will have a dinner party in St. James's square onTuesday, The Earl of Radnor has removed his establishment to Coleshill Park, near Reading. The Earl of Aberdeen left to►vn yesterday morning on a visit to her Majesty at Brighton. The Earl of Elgin will leave this country to assume the Govern. ment of Jamaica, early in April. never read such a complete case of attempting to suborn a witness. The real Joseph was, also now brought forward; an extract • from a letter from Benjamin to him was read, asking how long he had been in town, and stating tl:at he (Benjamin) wanted to bring two actions for false imprizonment, against certain parties, as they could pro. bably make a few hundreds by it. Mr. Platt exp , ained that for this purpose Joseph was brought up to London, that he might he taken up for John, so thatthen an action for false impri sonment might be brought by the veritable Joseph, on theground of not being the right person. The letter told him that he might make 1001. or 2001. by it, and advised him to keep him self quiet and out of the way for the present. In a letter to John Parker, he again begs him to practice his handwriting, and write as much like him (Benjamin) as pos sible, particularly as to signing John Parker and Co., He also begs him to order two suits of clothes at the place where he had the last; one suit to do for Joseph, and to have them just alike, and ordered to be ready on the same day. This sufficiently proved the intention of the parties. The Learned Gentleman then concluded by commenting on the great importance of the case, and pointing out to the Jury the great talent with which the defence would be conducted. (Witnesses were under examination when we went to press.) IMICI SC I3 IOCaI/VMOUS. On this day in 1623, John Kemble died. He was the eldest son of Mr. Roger Kemble, an actor and manager of a strolling corn. ',any of players. Mrs. Siddons, his sister, and himself raised the stage to a degree of splendour it had never before attained. . INSOLVENT COURT-(TIIIS DAY) IN RE HENRY SAUNDERS. The insolvent in this case had been a boot and shoe-maker in Shoe-lane, Fleet-street, and subsequently carried on the same • business iu Mount -street, Grosvenor-square. He was opposed in person by several wholesale boot and shoemakers, from whom he had obtained a large quantity of goods. His petition to be discharged was supported by Mr. Cooke, and opposed by Mr. Nicholls, on behalf of a person named Simpson, who was the plaintiff in an action for damages against the insolvent. All the money now available to his creditors did not amount to 51., whilst his debts were Bove 9001. Mr. Burdon said he was a wholesale ladies' boot-maker, and the insolvent being recommended to him by a person named Clarke, he let him have a quantity of goods for which he re ceived a bill of exchange, and when it became due he found the acceptor of it to be confined in the Fleet•prison, and the endorser in Whitecross-street. In reply to the Court, the witness said shortly after the in solvent got possession of the goods, he found out that he had passed through this Court in the years 1836 and 1840 ; so that this was his third appearance to take the benefit of the Act. Mr. Harwood, of Fore -street, said the insolvent got a quan tity of boots and shoes from him, on the representation that a person named Gadson was his (the insolvent's) brother-in-law, and would he security for the amount of the goods received. The insolvent was examined by Mr. Harwood to establish the fact of having made his (Mr. Harwood's) foreman drunk, for the purpose of taking away the goods, and also to show that he had afterwards offered them for sale at a price very much below the trade price. The insolvent denied such to be the case. Several of the creditors having opposed the discharge for having obtained similar goods by false representations, Mr. NrcHoLs stated the facts out of which his client's claim against the insolvent arose. Mr. Simpson went on the 7th .of June last, accompanied by a person named Hughes, to the insolvent's premises, in Shoe-lane, on business, when he was given into custody of a policeman, and taken to the station-house, on the charge of the insolvent, for an as sault, when he was released in about half an hour the Inspector on duty refusing to take the charge. Warrants were subsequently issued at the Guildhall, when the sitting Alderman dismissed the charge. Mr. Simp son afterwards brought an action against the insolvent for false imprisonment, and was awarded 201. damages. A number of witnesses having been examined in support of , the Learned Counsel's statement, the insolvent was likewise examined, and flatly contradicted their testimony. The Learned CHIEF COMMISSIONER said there could be no doubt but there must be gross perjury on one side, and if Mr. Nicholls wished he should adjourn the case for the pro duction of further evidemie. After a long conversation between the Learned Counsel on both sides it was determined that the insolvent should take judgment to-day. Mr. WOODRUFFE on behalf of several creditors entered an opposition for having fraudulently obtained goods from them without any reasonable prospect of repayment. Mr. Commissioner REYNOLDS said, he was perfectly satisfied with the truth of Mr. Simpson's version of the story. Th e insolvent's conduct had been most fraudulent so far as all his creditors were concerned, and he (Mr. Commissioner Rey nolds) should therefore order him to be remanded, under the 76th clause of the Act, for six months, at the suit of Mr. Simpson. AMER-1C AN NEWS (EXPRESS FROM LIVERPOOL.) LIVERPOOL, FRIDAY EVENING. pure2tt B i ) n ; so t t.. l . l d, e aly% ll\ ,.

This v esse l h as made a rapid passage, having left the Capes of Delaware on the sth inst. Capt. Turley on his last voyage made a similar quick run. We are glad to learn by this arrival that the run upon the Banks had sub ided on the 2cl, and all the establish men ts of the city were quietly doing business in their usual way, except the Girard and the Bank of Pennsylvania. The arrangements entered into jointly as to the issue of notes and the deposit of securities, had restored. confi dence in each other. Most of them had already made their deposit, and nearly all of them named their trustees. These arrangements have been made with a view to re sumption of specie payments, on the Ist August next, and in the meantime the paper of each of the banks (the Girard and Bank of Pennsylvania not included), will be received on deposit of payment of debts. The interest of the State debt had not commenced payment on the 2d, but it was hoped that in a few days arrange ments to effect that desirable object, would be completed. Governor Porter ‘i as still at Phila delphia for the purpose ; he was expected to leave for Harrisburg with the Auditor-General on the 4th. " Governor Porter," says a Philadelphia paper, " has done all that it was in his power to do to preserve the honour of Pennsylvania untarnished, ample means had been provided by the Commonwealth to meet the demand of the public creditors ; but owing to the diffi culties which the Bank of Pennsylvania, the depository of the public funds, has had to encounter, there will be a temporary delay in the payment of the interest." The quotations of the Stock and - Money Market at New York exhibit a better feeling. At New York the sales of cotton on the Ist were 1,000 bags, without change in price. Flour remained firm at the late quo tations. Ashes dull, though offered a trifle lower. The exchange on London 7; 4 -' to 81 per cent. THE ORGANIZATION OF THE ARMY OF THE --- UNITED STATES FOR 1841.

Andrew Johnson was placed at the bar, charged with steal ing a bible, of the value of 4s. 6d., the property of Mr. Bar rett, bookseller, of Fleet- s t ree t. It appeared hat the prisoner was engaged at the warehouse of Mr. Barrett as a porter. A great number of books were constantly lying atiout the warehouse, so that any of the men who felt inc.ined might easily take one away. The prosecutor had received a good character ssith the prisoner, and he paid him Bs. per week. The book in question had been pledged at a pawnbroker's shop in Farringdon-street. The prisoner said in his defence that he had nothing to de pend upon but the Bs. per week, and at the time of his com mitting the offence of which he stood charged, he was in die tress, and therefore he took the book and pawned it. He was remanded till Tuesday next. LAW INTELLIGENCE. CHANCERY COURT-(THIS DAY) CASWELL V. BELL. The arguments in this part-heard case were resumed to-day, and concluded. The LORD CHANCELLOR directed the parties to bring an action at the next assizes to try their right. BUSY-STREET.-(THIS DAY.) " THE TABLET" SPLIT.—A respectably attired man named Hawkins, who bore the marks of ill-usage on his countenance, and whose back was completely covered with mud, was placed at the bar under the following circumstances : Police Sergeant F 4, stated that about eight o'clock this morning, having received intimation of a riot and great dis turbance taking place in Brydgea'-street, he, in company with some other policemen proceeded to the spot ; having arrived opposite the office of the Tablet newspaper, he found there a crowd of about 200 or 300 persons collected, amongst whom were about 50 men of the lowest class armed with bludgeons and other weapons, with which they were demolishing the front of the Tablet office, having, already broken several windows, and succeeded in tearing down the shutters ; though the Tablet office appeared to be the principal object of attack, the Whole was one general riot, and blows were freely given and exchanged amongst the crowd. When the police advanced, the men who were most actively engaged in the melee retreated into the office of another Tablet, where they remained secure from the aggressions of the police ; being unable to secure the ringleaders, the police felt it their duty to disperse the mob outside, and seeing th e pr i soner with marks about hi m , which indicated that he had been (how ever unwillingly) a party in the strife, they desired him to move on ; he did not accede to their request, and they took him to the station-house. The prisoner, in reply, stated that he was coming down Brydges-street, in company with two friends, to look for a cab. Whilst they were looking about them, a leg of a table, which had been violently thrown by some unseen hand, struck him on the back of the head, and felled him to the ground. He knew nothing of any of the parties engaged in the strife, but having been grossly ill-treated, he followed the crowd, in order to ascertain, if possible, who it was that had assaulted him. The police coming up, ordered him to move on ; to this he objected, for the reason just mentioned. They then said that if he would not go away, he must go with them ; to this he at once consented, thinking probably that that would be as good a way as any to enable him to find out the parties who had assaulted him. ROLLS' COURT.-(THIS DAY.) DAVIS V. FISHER. Lord LANGDALE gave judgment this morning in this cause, notice of which has already appeared in The Sur.. His Lordship was of opinion that the will and codicil of the husband, Wi,liam Davis, and the will of his widow, were not too remote, and therefore that the bequests to the children of Davis were valid. His Lordship then proceeded to hear petitions; none of them however, were of any interest. VICE-CHANCERY. —(THIS DAY.) (Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR of ENGLAND.) BRAN FIL V. BRYDGES. The arguments in this part-heard case were resumed to-day, and ordered to stand over till Monday, in consequence of the absence of Mr. Stuart. (Before Vice-Chancellor KNIGHT BR UCE. ) His HONOUR disposed of several unopposed petitions and short causes, presenting no point of general interest. (Before Vice •Chancellor WIG It A3l. ) THOMAS V. WILLIAMS. His HONOUR pronounced judgment in this cause. The ob ject for which the suit was instituted was to set aside a bond which had been obtained from the plaintiff, a lady residing at Oswestry, in Wales, by a person who had acted for her in the character both of trustee and steward, on the ground of ser vices performed. The bond was for the sum of 951. One of the principal points mule for the plaintiff was that at the time of executing the bond she was totally ignorant of the English language. His lioNouit made his decree according to the prayer of the bill, and gave the costs of the suit and the costs at law. QUEEN'S BENCH HIS DAY.) THE QUEEN V. JOHN PARKER, -BENJAMIN PARKER, AND PHILLIP :HAY. This action, which has been removed into this Court by a writ of certiorari, was laid against the defendants for obtain ing certain goods and merchandise under false pretences, thus defrauding, to a considerable a mount, several respectable houses in the City of Lor.don. From the successful manner in which the goods had been obtained, the case excited great interest in the commercial community. Mr. Platt and Mr. Clarkson appeared for the prosecution ; the defence was conducted by the Attorney -General and Mr. Kelly. Mr. PLATT stated to the Jury the facts of the case, as follow :—The defendants, John and Philip Parker, had been in business previous to the year 18.30, and the defendant, Philip May, was also carrying on business in the City of London as a linendraper. In 1841 Benjamin Parker was an uticertificated bankrupt, and being such, he, in the early part of that year, took a house in the city, and op ene d a business under the name of John Parker and Co. His business was ostensibly that of an exporter of goods to the East Indies, Sydney, and Texas ; he was an importer also, but his business was principally in fo reign exportation. He gave out th at h e had a capital of 4,0001., arid that he expected 5,000/. from his mother-in-law, and, in shsrt, that he was a person of considerable expecta tions. His counting-house was No. 70k, Thames -street, and from this place he, during the month of June, 1841, applied in the name of John Parker and Co., through his clerk or buyer, to several houses for goods suitable to the markets, to which hesaid he was in the habit of exporting. These orders were of various amounts, and were chiefly given to Messrs. Tarn and Law, car- paid and agents, Wood -street. They were to be paid for in part on delivery, and the remainder at a subsequent time. As in most cases, where there is an intention to defraud tradesmen, a large p ort i on of the first order was so paid. Other orders were given and supplied during the whole of the month of June, from Messrs. Tarn and Law, Mr. Bradbury, Messrs. Holmes, and other parties, the amounts being varying sums, from 1001. to 3771. 10s. at a time, but the great part of them being supplied by Messrs. Tarn and Law, who were sufferers altogether to the extent of 1,6001. by these transactions. During this period application was made for payment for these good's, when the defendant John Parker stated that his brother was very ill; on inquiry being made for his private residerrte, he said it was at Hamp stead. Early i n J u ly, P ar k er and - Co, applied to a Mr. Fen. nell, fur a sample of cotton yarn suited to the East India market, and a quantity was supplied on their represen tation. Mr. Fennell called at the counting-house in Thames street which was filled up with all the appearances of an ex tensive shipping business, invoices, bills of lading, anti cards of the sailing of vessels. He called again on the 10th of July, and then found no one but a porter, while the counting-house had been completely gutted. On inquiry it was found that all the goods that had been supplied to Parker and Co., had been taken to Philip May, within a day o r t wo a f ter their delivery a t th e counti ng -house, a n dh disposedthe two Packers were w falsely stated, as th e rea l J o h n P ar ker enor mously below th e i r va l ue.

Mention had been made of Joseph Parker, and though John Parker had falsely assumed the name of Joseph, yet there really was a Joseph Parker existing. There were three brothers, John and Joseph being twins, and so much alike in person, that when they were dressed alike, no person could distinguish one from the other. answerr°s t O o n goes_ But the real Joseph at the time lived two hundred miles from London. The letter to which the Learned Counsel had re ferred then gave the most minute directions as to the answers John Parker should return to certain questions which Benja min anticipated would be asked of him. he (Mr. Platt) had Two other witnesses, named George Mason and Benjamin Thompson, most respectable men, who had been in company with the prisoner during the whole of the transaction, corro borated his statement, which at once met with the full credence of the Magistrate. The policeman, in answer to a question from the Magistrate relative to the origin of the riot, stated that some time ago there was a weekly paper started on Roman Catholic prin ciples, called the Tablet, but there had lately been a split be tween the editor and the proprietor, or some of the parties concerned, in consequence of which this morning appeared a new paper, under the title of the True Tablet. lie pre sumed that this had cau.ed a considerable jealousy in the heart of the proprietor of the Tablet, and that this disturbance had resulted from it—the men with the bludgeons having been en gaged by the one paper to demolish the Opposition " stoup and roup," imagining, we suppose, that a little gentle physical force reasoning in this instance would be preferable to strong moral force argument. The MAGISTRATE at once dismissed the prisoner, and ex pressed his regret at the circumstance, as well as the happi ness he should feel to assist him in discovering and punishing the man who had so wantonly assaulted him. The prisoner thanked the Magistrate, and expressed his de termination to institute a search after the unknown. UNION-HALL -(THIS DAY.) John Davis, the driver of cab No: 1,996, was charged with attempting to extract more than his fare from Mrs. Meggy, the wife of a barrister. The complainant stated that she and , another lady got into the defendant's cab, in Trinity-square, and desired him to drive them a mile in the direction of Cheapside. He directly ordered them to get out, saying that he would take no eightpenny fares. Witness told him rot to be impertinent, upon which he said he only could be fined. She told him that she would certainly have him summoned. He said that he only could be impri soned, and that he would sooner be locked up in a gaol than drive such as they were, who stuck up themselves for ladies. The witness added that she and her friend afterwards gnt out; and he then called after them, and put up his hand to his nose, by way of derision, desiring them to " take it out of that." The defendant was fined 40s. ; and the Magistrate desired that a copy of the evidence be sent to the registrar of hackney carriages. THAMES POLICE.-(THIS DAY.) A young man named John Thurstell, a journeyman baker, wasplaced at the ba. before Mr. BALLANTINE, charged with robbing his employer's till. Samuel Rayner, 46, Church-road, St. George's-in-the- East, stated that the prisoner had been in his employ about three weeks. A few nights since prosecutor and hi, wife had counted up a quar.tity of silver, which was taken up stairs, leav ing in the till 13 fourpt nny pieces and a 6d. The shop was then locked up, and they retired to rest. On the following morning he discovered that the money left in the till had been removed. Suspicion fell upon the prisoner, whose duty it was to be at work at an early hour in the morning. Prosecutor resolved upon marking some money, and on Friday evening placed in the till three shillings, four sixpences, four or five fourpenny pieces, ten penny pieces, and . forty-six halfpence, all marked, and ninety-six halfpence and thirty-four farthings not marked. On going into the shop this morning he counted the money, when there was found to be Is. 9hd. missing, all in coppers. The prisoner shortly afterwards went out to get his breakfast, and was seer to enter a pork-shop opposite, where he paid two of the marked h a lf pence. T he prisoner was given into custody, and on being searched at the station-house twelve more of the marked halfpence were found upon him, which the prosecutor identified by the marks. In answer to a question from Mr. Ballantine, the prosecutor said that the prisoner had not access to the shop early in the morning, as it was always locked, as' well as the parlour-door which led into it, so that he must either have got through a window out of the bakehouse, or had a false key by which he let himself through the parlour into the shop. Police Sergeant. K 1, deposed to searching the prisoner, and finding the marked money now produced upon him. The prisoner who denied that the money belonged to his master, was fully committed for trial. COURT OF COMMON COUNClL.—Yesterday a Court was held fur the purpose especially of taking into consideration the report from the Secondaries and City Courts Committee relative to the Judges of the Sheriff's Court. The Court was crowded, the sub ject having excited great interest and emulation. After the motion of Mr. Cope, seconded by Sir Peter Laurie, the Hall-keeper was ordered to pay 10/. from the Corporation funds for the temporary relief of a poor labourer who was injured that morning by a fall while he was at work in the Guildhall. Mr. Richard Taylor then moved that the Report of the Committee appointed to inquire whether two Judges or one should be appointed for the Sheriff's Court, be confirmed. The Report recommended that only one Judge be appointed, with a salary of 800/. a year. A lengthened discussion took place, when the Report was confirmed by a majority of 27, there being for the motion 80, against it, 53. SUMMARYOF NEWS AN D Vubitt Opinion. " Who runs may read." FOREIGN. The French Opposition Journals express surprise, not unmixed with anger, at the exchange of the ratifications of the treaty for the suppression of the slave-trade by England, Austria, Prussia, and Russia, in the absence of the ratification by the French Govern. merit. This expression of feeling will probably, in its turn, cause surprise to our readers who have attended to the usage in such cases. Our Paris Contemporaries think that new negotiations should have been opened with a view to the revision of the treaty, and that by not taking this course the other Powers have inten tionally slighted the French nation. The Presse asserts that the treaty of 1842 will never be ratified by France without modifications, and that in its present state it will, without the accession of the French Government, prove a dead letter. The Quotidienne says, the European compact is again broken, and without any benefit to France, as, notwithstanding the non. ratification of the Treaty, she is not the less bound by preceding Treaties to recognize the right of search by England. The Paris Globe, which is the organ of the French West India interests, necessarily expresses its gratification at the non.ratifica. Lion of the treaty by France, and observes, whilst it admits that the right of ratification is a prerogative of the Crown, that it will be impossible to find any Ministry willing to take upon itself at?, responsibility of such an act by the Crown, after the expression of feeling which has been manifested by the Chamber of Deputies. The Courrier Francais says—" M. Guizot had asked for delay. The other parties begin by exchanging the ratifications, in order to show clearly to Europe that the resistance or hesitation of the French Government has no effect upon the determination of the other Powers. There is no European compact except against Frace—there can be none to her profit. M. Guizot has received a rebuff. The humiliation of the 20th February, 1842, is, in our opinio 7, morally more grave than that of the 15th July, 1840, for in the present case the Government submits to it ; events have tot taken it by surprise. The other Powers pass over France, not in consequence of a refusal to ratify, but on an a:plication for delay. Instead of attempting, as before, to deceive a resisting Government, in the present case a sup pliant is disdainfully rejected. M. Guizot might have avoided all this, if he had said plainly that France wou'd not ratify the treaty." Three members of the French Cabinet are favourable to the ratification of the Treaty, and five against it. For the ratification MM. Guizot, Duchatel, and Martin du Nord; against it, Marshal Soult, MM. Humann, Teste, Cunin-Gridaine, Villemaine, and Admiral Duperre." The Levant Mail has brought letters from Constantinople of the 7th inst., but they are without news of the slightest interest. PAR.LXAIVIEN WARY. In the House of Lords, last night, there was a little conversa. tion on the Irish Dissenters' Marriage Bill, which showed that the Lord Chancellor is treated rather scurvily by his colleagues. On Thursday evening while he was informing their Lordships that the Bill was in preparation, Lord Eliot was actually introducing it into the House of Commons ; and last night the Lord Chancellor excused the incorrect information he had given the Lords, by saying that he had directed the Bill to be submitted to the law officers of the Crown, and had expected it to be returned to him. His colleagues, however, or his subalterns, appear to have passed him by, and introduced the Bill into the House of Commons without his sanction or knowledge. The Noble Lord appeared, by what he said, not even to know the nature of the Bill. Is Lord Lyndhurst getting as feeble in mind as he is its body? The Peers did no business. In the House of Commons Mr. Ward gave notice of a motion, on the 10th of March, for a Committee to inquire into the burdens on land, and also of his intention to bring forward the Ballot ques. tion after Easter. The Dissenters• Marriage (Ireland) Bill was read a second time, and was described as an enacting, not a declaratory Bill, with a re trospective effect. The Corn laws again occupied the House of Commons to the exclusion of all other business. Mr. Christopher moved his scale in opposition to that of Sir Robert Peel, and supported, with very elaborate arguments, the claim of the landlords to tax the people's bread, even somewhat higher than Sir Robert Peel pro. poses to tax it. Mr. Baring followed Mr. Christopher, and made some good hits at the sliding scale, and at Sir Robert Peel. Mr. Gladstone made gel,. clever speech after Mr. Baring. A somewhat dull de bate occupied the House for the great part of the evening, till it was enlivened by an excellent speech of Mr. T. Duncombe, who made great sport of Mr. Christopher, dissected his election speeches, and turned the laughter of the House on that Gentleman. Ultimately Mr. Christopher, badgered from all sides, withdrew his scale, in order to allow the Conservatives to keep their ranks united ; and the Committee divided on Sir Robert Peel's, which was carried. The House then resumed, and the Committee sits again on Monday. PUBLIC OPINION. The Times is now as much out of humour with Lord Wharn cliffe, as it was the other day with Sir James Graham, and alluding to some remarks lately made by his Lordship in the House of Lords on a question growing out of the new Poor-law, says, in its heartiest manner :—" Ou r bl oo d r i ses within us when we see a rich man, who could deal as Lord Wharncliffe did with an inquiry involving the slaughter of ninety-one Christian Englishmen, abusing his noble station to stigmatize others whose temperament is less phlegmatic, and whose appreciation of pauper life and pau per happiness is less philosophically indifferent than his own. Lord Wharncliffe, one of those who gave, and who would still continue, to these political economists in London the power of doing what they please with all the poor who receive or want pa rochial relief throughout England—this man laid it down as a principle, that whenever a charge of cruelty or oppression is made against the persons endued with these tremendous powers, or their satellites, inquiry ought to be directed in the first Instance to the conduct and motives of the party making it," The Herald says :—" The real question arising out of Mr. Vil. liers's resolution is, according to Mr. Cobden, whether it was honest that any tax whatever should be levied upon the food of the people ? This is not the real question—it is not proposed to Par liament by her Majesty's Government to tax the food of the peo ple ;—such a proposal was left for Lord Palmerston to make. The sliding scale is a device to give the people the supply of food neces nary to make up the deficiency of the home supply, when that supply is deficient, free from treasury taxation. A fixed duty would be a tax when the supply is deficient, but the sliding scale is not." The Chronicle is of opinion that one of the worst features in the conduct of the Tories on Thursday night, was the mode in which they received the charges brought by Mr. Ferrand against the ma nufacturers :—" They were absolutely frantic with joy. If a fo reigner had then entered the House for the first time, he would have conceived that a hoax had been practised on him ; that, instead of the Commons of England, he was witnessing a caricature of them by the innsates of St. Luke's. The exhibition reflected disgrace on the House. As for Mr. Ferrand, little notice of him is required at our hands. That among so extensive a body as the master manu. facturers of these kingdoms, there may be found individuals capable of resorting to practices such as those described by him, we can have no difficulty in believing. But that the practices are either universal or participated in by the whole members of the Anti- Corn.law League, the great majority of the manufacturers, is what no man in his senses would believe." The Post makes the. following agreeable apostrophe to Mr. Cob. den:—" Ah, Mr. Cobden, we can tell you of something better than that kind of ofdignity which the sensitiveness of Stockport makes you anxious about. What think }ou, Mr. Cobden, about truth and honesty ?—about practical humanity ?—as matters worthy of your high consideration. Might not dignity afford you a little while to take care of itself, while you are giving your attention to the con. cerns of a more homely sort of virtue? The feeling of laughter which Mr. Cobden's anxiety about the dignity of the House,' at first occasions soon gives way to a feeling of loathsomeness ; for, of all the sickening sights that can be presented to moral contemplation, that of a vulgar man prating about dignity, when a plain matter of sincerity and humanity is in question, is perhaps one of the most revolting." The Advertiser observes :—" We agree with the Tory organ when it calls the ' prolixity of discussion in the Commons' a pub. lie nuisance.' We agree, too, when it says ' Members were not sent there by their constituents to talk, except when some good is to be obtained by talking.' Let them, say we, rather return to their constituents, and tell them, that as the Commons is at pre sent constituted, they cannot forward their interests by voting there; that they return for instructions, for that they themselves are power. less to resist the tide of calamity setting in upon the nation."

He was absent from his hotel at the time, but his tin-box, containing between 13,0004 and 14,0001. in bills, was delivered up by the landlord; and meanwhile his passport has been stopped. At Reading, yesterday, an action was brought before Mr. Justice Patteson, and a Special Jury, by the widow of the late Colonel Gwynne, against Sharpe, Esq., for slander. The substance of the slanderous imputations was, that Mrs. Gwynne had fabricated a case on which she had supported a charge against her servant, one Maria Heaton, of having stolen some of her property, and that Mrs. Gwynne had committed perjury in her examination before the magistrates at Windsor. The Jury, after deliberating for ten Iminutes, returned a verdi c t f or th e plaintiff', damages 201.

FOREIGN WOOL TRADE, LEEDS, FEB. 25.—We have noticed a slight improvement in the general demand for foreign wool this week, and _prices are firm. ENGLISH WOOL TRADE, LEEDS, FEB. 25.—Sales of English wool have been limited this week. Previous prices are with difficulty maintained. TRADE OF LEens.---Every week discloses more and more the gloomy fact that there is no: a prospect of any material improvement in trade. This week business at our Cloth Halls has been as dull as in any week siree the commencement of the year. The prices of cloths of fine and middle qualities are merely nominal, whilst even for low goods there is but a very limited demand. Under these circumstances many of the manufacturers are still further curtailing their operations ; several are shutting up their mills entirely; and although this will have the effect of still further increasing the distress which already exists amongst the labouring .poor in several of the clothing villages, it is the only course the manu facturer can pursue to save himself from ruin. There have been a few of the London buyers down during the week, but they have purchased so sparingly, that we may fairly state that there has been no improvement in business in the warehouses. BRADFORD MARKET, THURSDAY.—In the Piece Market we had a good attendance of merchants, but their purchases have not been of so extended a character as we could have wished to have been able to report ; in fact, the business doing is far short of an average of this season of former years. The demand for yarn has somewhat improved, owing to the ship pers being in the market,who have taken a small quantity, but for the home consumption things remain very flat : prices are unaltered. We cannot learn that anything different is visible in the demand for wool, which is chiefly confined to the lower kinds ; the finer descriptions continue very dull, and lower rates are submitted to.—Liverpool Mercury. AINSWORTH'S MAGAZINE, No. ll.—This new Peri odical has at one' taken up its position in the first class. Mr. Harrison Ainsworth's new tale, " The Miser's. Daughter," has advanced to the fifth chapter; the tide of interest runs strong, and the work promises to be one of unrivalled power. Several new characters crowd the scene —they are alive in Cruikshank's scene. A splendid feature this month is " Strawberry Hill," with no less than Ten admirable illustrations ; this re nowned retreat of Horace Walpole, which in a few weeks wi'l be finally broken up, is graphically described—to read, by the aid of the illustrations, is almost to visit the place, its fascinations are no vividly chronicled. Another novelty is the " Fight of the F►ddlers," a Romance of the Reign of King John, by Mr. James, who was never more successful than in this triumphant introduction of the Dancing Girl. Among the prose we have two irresistible articles—" The Lady's Page," No. 11., and " The Gentleman's Tiger," No. I. ; Mr. W. F. Ainsworth's " Sketch on the Banks of the Euphrates ;". Mr. 011ier's striking tale, "The Grave-digger ;" and Uncle Sam's most diverting eccentric, "The Virginnv Pirate;" par - tak:ng both of prose and poetry; we have Mr. s'upper's second series of "Proverbial Philosophy," with flowing measures of verse by C. S., Laman Blanchard, and Mr. Oxenford. The " Library Table " exhibits to us the remarkable genius of Tony Johannot, with Notes on Music and the Drama, and a song by Mr. Buller, of Brazennose. Miss Pardoe, Mrs. Stone, the Hon. Julia Augusta Ma) nard, and other names grace the brilliant catalogue. The Number more than fulfila the promise of the first. THE GURNEY AFFAIR.—DECISION OF THE JOCKEY CLUB.—Since the legal decision of the Gurney affair in favour of Mr. Thornton, the managers of Mr. Gurney's Epsom account have come to a resolution to set before the public the ex parte statement of Mr. Gurney's account with his credi tors, the debtor-side of which is set down at 11,0821., and the creditor at 7,0311. showing thereby a balance in favour of that gentleman's account of 656/. This document, signed by Mr. Gurney's creditors, in token of their satisfaction of his full ability to pay, was begun to be signed on the 15th of Novem ber, l 841, four days before Mr. Thornton commenced his action. The Stewards of the Jockey Club have, also, by. letter, signi fied to Mr. Thornton that, having been declared a defaulter by their body, on his refusal to pay the bets he has lost, and adju dicated by their Club to be paid, but at the same time, not wishing to impugn the decision of the Court of Law, they have determined to exclude him fiorn the Newmarket Coffee room, az.d the Race-course there, as well as all places in their occupation, or under their jurisdiction, until he shall have dis • charged the said defalcations according to their satisfaction. I MURDER (ORMANSLAUGHTER) AT SUNDERLAND.— On Tuesday, at Mr. Lumsdon's forge, Monkwearmouth shore, Sunderland, Mr. James Liddell, the foreman, rebuked James Robson, one of the workmen, for being in a state of intoxica tion, when the man seized a large forge7hammer and struck Mr. Liddell a violent blow on the head, uhich fractured his skull, and caused his death within fourteen or fifteen hours. Robson was taken into custody, arid remanded by the Ma gistrates until a Coroners Jury had returned their verdict.

Among the Bills now before Parliament a measure has just been presented "to incorporate a company to insure farmers and gardeners against less from the effects of hailstorms, under the title of The Farmers' and Gardeners' Hailstorm Insurance Company 1' " The Rev. J. M. Lowe, 8.A., of St. John's College, in this University, has been preferred to the perpetual curacy of Grindleton, Yorkshire ; patron, the Rev. J. A. Addison. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

LIVERPOOL. —Everything here is assuming a degree of gaiety and liveliness that we have not witnessed for some time, in consequence of the approaching coursing, steeple chases, and hurdle race. The meadows of Altcar are in fine order, and the hares stronger than usual, so that great sport may be ex pected from the long-tails on Tuesday. Wednesday brings on the " tug of war" for the national prize. The Prince of Wales's Cup excites an interest from a new grade of horsemen, who may be called "The Junior United," as we don't hear there will be any veterans among them. The Hurdle-race is sure to be good from the numerical strength of the field and the quality of the animals. Then, as a wind-up, comes Thurs day, for the:greyhounds ; thus giving three days of interesting sport which no other place can equal. Stabling has been en gaged for upwards of thirty horses, We hear that the water jump opposite the Grand Stand will be 12 feet, a foot wider than last year. BETTING AT MANCHESTER.—(FarnAY.)
