SPIRIT OF JOURNALS. It is impossible adequately to describe the mingled feeling of derision and disgust with which the an nouncement of the names of the new administration has been received in all parts of the country. Nor is this surprising. Who are these worthies ? Neither more nor less than the Old Hacks—the superannuated, cast-off Old Hacks—of that Tory government, which, in 1820, fled from office, amidst the jeers and curses of the whole empire. Such is the Hudson Administration I—such the miraculous results of the journey of the Page of the Back-stairs to the Queen. It may, perhaps, be said that Knatchbull and' Wortley (alias Wharncliffe) are exceptions. We deny it. They were the regular hacks, who performed the parts of " Country Gentlemen" to the Liverpool Government. They have since dis tinguished themselves—the first (Knatchbull), by his indignant denunciation of Sir R. Peel's apostacy on the Catholic Question ; the second (Wharncliffe, alias Wortley), by his intrigue with Lord Harrowbv to defeat the Reform Bill, which very Bill they pre tend they are now banded together to support in all its results and consequences ! All this is well known to the people, and thence arises that loud and long peal of laughter from all classes. Why, even the Tories themselves can hardly keep their countenances. Some of them, indeed, admit that the thing is too absurd to last ; but then say they, " We have two months be fore Parliament meets. In that time we can do a great deal for ourselves. We can give promotion to some, Peerages to others, pensions, honours, places—all can be given during this interval, which never would hav , ..! been within our reach, if a liberal Government had remained in office." All this is very well, as far as their interests are concerned. In this scramble some of them, no doubt, may pick up something which otherwise would never have been their's ; but is this fair and honourable dealing with the King and the country ? Did Sir R. Peel tell the truth to the King ? Did he own to his Majesty that in no circum stances could he expect a majority, either in the pre sent or any future House of Commons ? Is the coun try to be convulsed from one end to the other—and all the violence of a contested election to be incurred, in order to make Sir J. Scarlett Chief Baron, and the Speaker a Peer ? For, after all, these are likely to be the only permanent appointments. To our minds, this seems very like obtaining the Government under false pretences, and then absconding after " grabbing" all they can lay th e i r hands on. Th ese are indeed prac tices worthy of those whom the Times calls the " galley slaves"—and justly so : for a more justly and irrevocably condemned set of public men never stood before at the bar of public opinion, waiting for their sentences of transportation from office for life.—Morn ing Chronicle. We refer our readers with much satisfaction to the great Lambeth meeting at the Horns, at Kennington, yesterday, which will be found reported in another part of our paper. The oldest reporters assert that they never witnessed a meeting more thronged or more re spectable —more excited by the cause which assembled them, and more decided in the energetic unity of their opinion. So much for Tory re-action ! We apprehend that this and other meetings held yesterday of the same patriotic stamp and decided character, will settle the question as to whether the people will " wait." When the Duke and his tools say " wait !" such meet ings will determine whether the common sense of this great nation is to be further stultified, insulted, and gulled by the profligate and impudent pretence that the worn-out rump of forvism—now once again in office— the resuscitated bones of Schedule A—are wanted to save the country, or are competent to serve it. They Re formers? Preposterous ! ! The speech of Mr. Tenny son was admirable in every respect, both in matter and in manner—in principle and in eloquence. Mr. Hawes also vowed an uncompromising determination to op pose the Tory Ministry coute quil coute. We are glad of the straightforward declaration of the latter gen tleman, because it had been reported that, notwith standing the claims of the present crisis, he had begun to trim ;" an allegation which he re butted in the most distinct terms. In a word, this impression of the whole meeting was the absolute necessity of sinking all minor shades of opinion, in the paramoant duty of ousting the Tories from power. They are on the horns of a dilemma. If they come forward as Reformers, they should be re pudiated on account of the fatal example of an unpa ralleled political profligacy—if as anti-reformers, or bit-and-bit reformers, then, as enemies to the public interest and the public wish. They must be ex pelled from office at all hazards and on all grounds and the people have the constitutional means of their exclusion in their own hands, namely, by stopping the supplies. The fundamental right of the Commons House to the control of the purse is as unquestionable as vitally useful in emergencies, and as ancient as any prerogative of the King. The Commons must return to the system of the old bur gesses in the early periods of the monarchy—" redress, or no money," —charters and improved institutions, or no money—our rights or no money. The affairs have indeed come to a crisis. The Tories have now thrown down the gauntlet, and the people are not backward in picking it up. The declaration of Sir R. Peel has drawn the manseuvring enemy from his entrenched position " evasit, erupit"— he has quitted his masked battery of reform, and we have now an open and unimpeded battle-field. There will be no more shifting tactics in order to obtain the 'vantage ground. The public and the public enemy will soon be confronted face to face ; and " God defend the right I" In the words of the old English battle cry, as given in Shakspeare's version, we say-- God and St. George for us !1 Upon them ! Victory sits upon our helms 1" —.Morning Advertiser. We promised yesterday an analysis of that precious manifesto which has just been issued by the head of the new Cabinet, not in the name, but for the pur poses of all his colleagues ; but we are again prevented by want of space, and if space had not prevented us, we might most truly aver that the work had been done to our hands; first, by the meetings which were held in the course of yesterday—and, secondly, by th e una nimous and de c id e d o pi n i on o f th e public. The impudent --.the insulting—the deceptive character of that address, has done the work of destruction for itself. No one reads it without disgust—no one trusts in it—no one deems it worth a moment's consideration, except as an exhibi tion of the tortuous, and miserable, and deceiving policy which the most miserable of all factions, backed by a Court party, ever attempted. It is not, in fact, and we now say so deliberately, after perusing it at great leisure and with great discretion, worthy of an analysis, though we may, perhaps, attempt such a work of su pererogation on Monday next—it says nothing to gra tify, to cheer, or to inspire the people with confidence —it says everything to disgust them with its author, and with the party whom he has so unfortunately, for his own reputation, headed. His Reforms are indefi nite and undecided—they are those which, when brought forward by the Grey Government, were not only scouted by the public, but withdrawn by their autt ors as not satisfactory—and yet upon these Sir p eel would build th e su p ers t ructure o f a Government i n which the people would confide I In Neaven's name what are we to be told next, except that Sir R. Peel and the Duke of Wellington will not attempt (mark the modesty of the expression) to wrest from the people of England the Reform Act, which they gained after a great struggle —on which their new liberties are based —and which they dare not touch even with their little finger ! However, the whole affair is more a matter of laughter than of serious consideration—and as such we dismiss it till Monday. Happily pass the Tory hours till then—happily those of all Reformers—the latter not forgetting that with mirth a certain portion of seriousness is not indecorous, and that with watchful ness and immediate exertion in behalf of all liberal and liberal candidates are the first requisites.—Mornine- Advertiser. CIIRISTENING E XTRAORDINARY. --There were christened at Scrooby, on Tuesday week, by the Rev. Mr. Hurt, eight children, the olive branches of Mr. John Graves, of that place, butcher. —York Courant. PREROGATIVE COURT, DEC. 18.---iIINDMA RSII AGAINST HINDMARSH.—Dr. Lushington said, that as the wit ness who had been relied on for proof of the will in this case declined being examined, and as the answers did not support his case, he must submit to a decree against the paper pro pounded. COURT 0 ,Y, DEC. 19., IN THE MATTER OF LONG, AN INFANT. In this case an application was lately made to Lord Brougham, by Mrs. Sands, the mother of the infant, for the removal of Dr. Cooper, the guardian of the infant, on the ground of intemperate conduct, and an indifference to the interests of his ward. Lord Brougham, before whom the petition was argued, dismissed the application of the mother, and directed Dr. Cooper to be confirmed in his appointment. Dr. Cooper was appointed guardian in June last. Petitions against the confirmation of the appointment was presented afterwards, and it was not until the :2 Bth of November that the minutes were drawn up. Mrs. Sands had, in the course of the proceedings, employed Mr. Gre gory as her solicitor ; but, being dissatisfied with his ma nagement of the cause, she subsequently employed Messrs. Constable and Kirk. The solicitor for the other side had notice of the change, but when minutes of the decree were to be drawn up he gave notice to Gregory to attend in stead of Constable and Kirk, and on his attendance the de cree was regularly drawn up. Mr. COOPER, on the part of Mrs. Sands, rose to set aside this order as irregular. Mr. MUNROE and Mr. GIRDELSTONE, on the other side, argued that the motion was altogether indefensible, as there could be no abjection to the decree itself, and there had really been no irregularity. The LORD CHANCELLOR dismissed the petition with costs against Mrs. Sands. VICE-CHANCERY COURT, DEC. 19. ministers of the chapels from their foundation, and thy, Campbell was supported by a majority of the congregations The affidavit of Campbell stated the origin of his con nexion with the chapels. He said he was invited to join at the request of the Rev. Mr. Wilks ; that he had several conversations with Wilks on the subject of his being ap pointed a colleague, when he intimated that his feelings should be governed by the feelings of the members of the congregation towards him, as he would listen to no invi tation that was not at least in essence from them. Upon wUch Wilks responded that the people must be consulted to the fullest extent, equally on account of all parties and for the common good. At the request of Wilks a public meeting of the whole congregation was held on the Mon day of each week, for praying for the Divine direction re specting his election. And, being satisfied he was the ob ject of the people's choice, he consented to become col league of Mr. Wilks. He claimed for himself the same powers as were possessed by Wilks, which were almost un limited, and sufficient to the proper discharge of all pas toral duties. He submitted that the scheme of fourteen trustees, and their plan of trust, was a violation of all past usage ; and denied all the allegations of violence. In reply, were read the further affidavits of the relators, by which they denied that Bateman had any authority till the legal estate became vested in them and him, and that he had on various occasions since recognized and acted under the re gulations in the plan of trust, and submitted to be bound by a majority of his co-trustees. They then entered into details to show he approved of the draft trust deed in pur suance of the plan. Several other affidavits, detailing the opinions of different persons, were read in support of the defendant's case. Mr. CIIING followed Mr. KNIGHT. Mr. BETHELL on the same side observed that it was very fortunate for the Dissenters they did not come very often before the Court in such cases ; and very fortunate for the bar, for if they came frequently, they would require a Court of Chancery for themselves. There were three grounds on which the case 1 the relators rested; the resig nation, the propriety of the dismissal, and the propriety of the removal of Campbell, for the sake of preserving the charities from destruction. The Learned Counsel then went at length into the facts of the case, and concluded by saying —In this case of a religious charity it remains for the Court to act in such a manner as to preserve the insti tution by granting the injunction moved for. Sir WILLIAM HORNE, for the defendant Bateman, had spoken but for a short time when the Court rose at four o'clock. This motion will be continued to-morrow. The Court was crowded to excess all day, and the par tisans of the different parties, especially the ladies, could scarcely be restrained from giving vent to their feelings at different times. ROLL'S COURT.-DEC. 19. MORTARA V. HALL. Mr. JACOB appeared for Mr. Andrews, the petitioner in this case. Th e pet i t i on praye d that the petitioner might be permitted to bring an action at law for the recovery of a debt due to him from the estate of the late Captain Nis bett, of the Life Guards ; or that he might be permitted to except to a certain Master's report. The grounds on which the petition was endeavoured to be supported were as fol lows :—Captain Nisbett, on entering the Life Guards, in 18 4 9, and being then a minor, obtained his outfit from the present petitioner. Shortly after the Captain's death, which took place in 1831, a creditor's bill was filed against his re presentatives, and the petitioner brought before the Master his claim for the amount of the outfit, but which claim the Master disallowed, on the footing, as it was alleged, of a decision of his Honour the Vice-Chancellor. The Learned Gentleman proceeded to contend, in support of the peti tion, that the petitioner had been induced to acquiesce fo: a time in the Master's finding, from having had the ment of the Vice-Chancellor misrepresented to' ;"),„ . Mr. BICKER STETH appeare d f or Mrs. _ N 'is - bett against th e petition. C a pt a i n Ni s b ett at the 'rt . me he obtain e d hi s outfit was an inf an t, who receive" from his friends.

This was sufficient for all proper purrs, and th e p e ti t i oner was b ound before ad vancing any thing in cre dit t o h ave i nqu i red i nto the allow ane and the circumstances of the infant. His Honour the MASTER of the ROLLS should look at the judgment of his Honour the Vice-Chancellor before finally disposing of the case. THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. BATEMAN. The early part of the day was occupied in reading the remaining affidavits on tho part of the relators and of the defendants. The affidavit of the relators verified the devo lution of title as opened in Mr. Knight's statement, and stated that Campbell was invited on the death of the Rev. Mathew Wilks in 1829, by Smith, Townsend, and Wilson, as the then proprietors and managers of the chapels to be come their officiating minister. The plan of the trust pre pared by the fourteen trustees, which bore no date, pro vided " That the appointment and dismissal of Ministers and officers, and all the regulations of the place and its pecuniary affairs and directions, should be, as theretofore, exclusively in the trustees, and that there should be ap pointed a treasurer and two managers for each chapel. The affidavit of the defendant Bateman denied that the chapels were vested in the fourteen trustees for the purpose of securing the continuance of the modes of worship and discipline established by Whitfield, as they had been considerably altered from time to time since his death. He alleged that it was in consequence of the desire of certain members of the congregations to hav e C am pb e ll' s ministry contin ue d, th at h e made up his mind to give Camp bell permission to enter and preach in the chapels, and thai the great excitement was owing to the attendance of the relators with police officers and parish constable in order to exclude Campbell. He denied that he was under any ob ligation to account to the relators as trustees, but that be was willing to submit his accounts to Mr. Wilks, whom he admitted to be his sole co-trustee and manager, and the congregations. He alleged that the conduct of the relators was at total variance with the intentions of Whitfield, in asmuch as they had lately, for the first time, caused thu chapels to be registered as Protestant Dissenting chapels, under an Act which was in existence in Whitfield's time, in consequence of which no Clergyman of the Church of England could, as was customary in Whitfield's time, officiate there. They had also caused a minister of the Baptiq denomination to preach and administer the Sacrament in the chapel. The affidavit of a number of persons who had been members of the chapel for various periods, from forty - ears, detailed the history of the permanent or stated COURT OF KING'S BENCH, DEC, 19. Mr. FOLLETT, whose appointment as Solicitor-General was known among the profession this morning, was cor dially congratulated upon it. He is a great favourite with all the members of the Bar, so that those who are the most strongly opposed to the present Government was just as anxious, as those of his own party, to wish him every pos sible personal advantage from his elevation. His appoint ment is not yet made out, so that he may probably not take his seat as Solicitor-General till Monday. MITCHELL V. JOHNSON. Mr. THESSIGER stated that this was an actio'- for slan der, for words uttered of the plaintiff in I , :.s character of h clerk. The plaintiff had b een i n the kind upon h is character.

Yesterday afternoon an inquisition was held before Mr. Higgs, at the Tavistock Hotel, Covent-garden, on the body or Mr. James Dignam. The deceased had formerly been proprietor of one of the largest hotels in Dublin, but for the last eight years bad occupied the office of confidential clerk to Mr. Harrison, the proprietor of this hotel, whose son was about to succeed him in the situation, which circumstance is supposed to have preyed on his mind. William Villiers, a waiter at the hotel, stated the de ceased to be about forty years old. -Witness knocked at his bedroom door to call him yesterday morning at seven o'clock, but received no answer, and went away. At eight o'clock he knocked again, and finding he could get no an swer he mounted a chair, and by taking off the covering of the ventilator he could see the deceased hanging from a cupboard door. The deceased had only his shirt on. Two letters produced by Mr. Corder, the Vestry Clerk, having been proved by this witness to be in the deceased's handwriting, were read. Both bore the Putney post-mark, date " Dec. 18, night." The first, addressed to Mr. Robert Warner, one of the ►pr . opridors of the hotel, was as follows : " Putney, Thursday, three o'clock. " SIR —How I came here I cannot account for, but am in bed at the above place. lam ill, and will thank some one to tell my cousin, Mr. T. Dignam, if he calls before he goes into the City. I wrote by same post to him. The person here says I wrote to some one last night ; my head is still not well. I perceive by the money I have that I did not pay the Tuesday's receipts over. lam really sorrowful this has occurred, but the thought of dismissal after the years I have been there, and refused any other situation, had preyed on my mind. As soon as I get better I will call and settle or send the money by my cousin. lam very sorry for any inconve nience I have put you to. ( Signed) " THOMAS DIGNAM." Mr. Warner said the deceased was of weak mind, and it appeared his services not being longer required had pro duced a distressing effect on his nerves. He had always talked of being well off. His accounts were perfectly correct. Verdict—" Suicide during temporary insanity." MELANCHOLY LOSS OF LIVES. On Tuesday last, between the hours of three and four o'clock in the afternoon, a very painful sensation took place at Harefield, near Uxbridge, in Middlesex, and the surrounding villages. in consequence of the falling in of an • extensive chalk pit, situated on the estate of William Mor gan, Esq., by which calamity Robert Lamb and Joseph Geary, both married men with large families, were sacri ficed, and Joseph Morris and others, working at the time in the pit, shockingly mutilated. The event wa- ma d e known at Harefield by the violent shock the falling of the immense body of an d attended a loud rep or t, s i m il ar to the '• which created whole of on e s id e o f the - • 'mebarge of cannon. The fortunate me n w h o pit had fallen in, hurrying the un sufferers, na . were at w or k at t h e t i me. O ne o f t h e w L ed Jese p h M orr i s, was the only individual ho co . be seen amidst the body of chalk that had fallen, he was buried up to his chest. His groans and cries for assistance was most heart-rending. No time was lost in sending for medical men ; and shortly after- , wards Morris was dug out, Mr. P au l, a sur geon, residi ng at Rickmansworth, arrived on the spot, and rmdered the unfortunate man every assistance, when it was discovered that both his thighs were frac tured, and that he had received several severe contusions on other parts of his body. It appeared that his head escaped the falling masses, he having ran some considerable dis tance, but part of the chalk over-reaching him, he was buried up to the chest, as described. In about ten minutes after Morris was relieved from his dreadful situation the body of Geary was discovered, shockingly mutilated, and quite lifeless. A most affectin g scene then t oo k p l ace. The widow of th e p oor f e ll ow, who has five orphans, swooned on beholding the lifeless body of her husband, and was taken away by some of her neighbours in a state of insensibility. Within two yards of where Geary was found the other ill fated man, Lamb, was dug out quite dead, and also pre sented a shocking spectacle. The two bodies were con veyed to the King's Arms, in Harefield, to await the result of a coroner's inquest. INQUEST ON TIE BODIES. Yesterday morning, at :Leven o'clock, Mr. STIRLIN G , the Coroner, and a Jury of the inhabitants, assem bl e d at the King's to inquir e i n t o th e c i rcumstances touching the - ..iclancholy occurrence. The Jury returned a verdict—" That the dec ease d men were accidentally killed b y th e falling in of a part of a chalk pit." The occurrence has created a great excitement on the spot. Mr. Morgan has humanely signified his intention to re lieve the widows and families, The third sufferer, Morris, is considered in imminent danger. An old lady lately died at Rheenen, aged 104 years, named Catherine Van Otten, the widow of Gerling Hlarenbos. She was born at Zutphen, in Holland ; her father, who at tained nearly the same age as herself, was in the cavalry, . and served at the siege of Maastricht. She was not married until her 42d year, when she had three children, whom, most probably, she survived, as for the last 20 years she had re ceived no intelligence of her only son, who was a soldier. One of her brothers is still living at Renkum, and is about 93 years old. THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1834 POLICE INTELLIGENCE. THE SUPERB STEAMER. GUILDHALL. Yesterday Thomas Tipper, the ex-metropolitan police liceman, and Thomas Swindle, were finally examined before Mr. Ald. WILSON ; Swindle being charged with stealing a pocket-book in Fleet-street, from F. Vine, Esq., and Tipper with receiving the same knowing it to have been stolen. Mr. Ald. WILSON asked the prisoners if they had any thing to say to the charge? Swindle declined offering any defence. Tipper at the time he saw the offence committed was carrying home some pork in a basket, and this occupying one of his hands he thought the best thing he could do was to keep the two thieves in conversation, in the hope that he should presently see an officer come along. He had not concealed his knowledge of the offence. He had given a no tice of it at Bow-street as well as to the City policemen. As he knew the thieves it was less material that he should secure them at the time. Both the prisoners were committed to Newgate, with instructions that they should be kept apart, and that they should be prosecuted at the expense of the Corporation. Hammond, the thief, who was allowed to become a wit ness, was committed to the Compter in default of sureties for his appearing at the Central Court to give evidence on the trial of the prisoners. The following _is extract of a letter from tile tritish Vice-Consul a t Emden, dated the 12th inst., which fur nishes some additional particulars connected with the fate of the Superb steamer : " Since yesterday there was brought to me a loose chest of about the size of a quarter tea-chest, surrounded with black waxed linen. On the waked linen WAs fixed near the lock a brass plate with the name as hereunder, E. Souchay.' Round this wax linen is a common pack linen, sown, cross-roped, and on this linen the mark C C S * * 3.' " This latter pack linen and its mark I have not seen myself, but the brass plate and the iron chest are at this moment in my counting-huuse. This chest has been picked up by a cap tain of this neighbourhood, emptied, and its contents sold at Delfzyle. As far as I know, the chest contained valuable ap parel, viz., four silk dresses and other articles, that show the chest belonged to a lady, most likely a passenger of the steam biat Superb. About the time of her loss the chest was picked up. I have taken steps to prosecute the captain, who by showing the stolen money has given occasion to draw these facts to light ; and I should be obliged if I could learn the exact value of the contents, in order to make the captain repay it, who besides will be criminally punished. I could not learn any news besides that I have published already about the Su perb, although I have written to every magistrate round the coast." In noticing the above letter we are able, however, to acid that, from the inquiries we have made, the lady was not one of the passengers of the Superb, but that a carriage and five cases belonging to her had been sent by this con veyance, so that although she has not fallen a victim the fate of the vessel is placed beyond doubt. BOW- STREET. THE CASE OF THE TAPESTRY TAKEN FROM THE HOUSE OF LORDS.—Yesterday John IVeare, who, it will be remembered, was examined at great length a fortnight ago, on the charge of having improperly taken some tapestry from an apartment in the House of Lords, attached to the Lord High Chamberlain's office, attended upon his bail to meet the further investigation. He was attended by many respectable friends. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.—DEc. 19, Mr. Preston, who bought the tapestry of Wea.re, and Mr. Thorne, who purchased it from Preston, were in at tendance, as was George Sieben, the late German servant of Major M'Arthur, the Lord High Chamberlain's Secre tary.

Ann Spiller was sentenced to be imprisoned ten days and Andrew Donelly five days in Newgate. The Sessions were then adjourned until the 15th of January. " George Sieben, courier, living at Frankfort-on-the-Maine, sworn—l was servant to Major M'Arthur, who had apartments in the Louse of Lords. In the month of June last I left Major M'Arthur's service. A day or two before I went I spoke to Weare, a porter at the House of Lords, and told him that there was an old piece of carpet (couverture], which was almost of no use, and that I would sell it. Shortly after Weare came into the place where it was, in a wooden chest, and I showed it to him ; and, after some conversation, he gave me ss. for it. My master had never given me this carpet, or any permission to take it. I remember my master showing it to Lord Chol mondcley, and he afterwards asked me if I had put it by ? My belief was, that it was an old piece of furniture of no value, or of consequence, to any one. I saw Weare take the tapestry away, and he took it home to the house where he lived, and i . is very possible you will find it there now. Nobody is to blame It is entirely my own fault. ( Signed) Home-office, Dec. 18." Sir F. ROE then observed that there was no imputation of felony against Weare, and, as respected Sieben, his ready manner of making his statement, convinced him he had no felonious intent. Nothing could be more complete than Weare's justification, and no man's character could stand higher. Weare was discharged, and the matter ended, except tha a negotiation was set on foot between Mr. Groom, the ageni for the Lord Chamberlain, and Mr. Thorne for the pur• chase from the latter of the tapestry for Government, Monday next was appointed for the final settlement. “ GEORGE SIEBEN, Yesterday Mr. Glossop, the proprietor of the Royal Victoria Theatre, was summoned on an information, at the instance of Mr. Porter, one of the Lambeth district sur veyors, for causing an additional erection to be made in front of the Theatre, contrary to the regulations of the Building Act. HEBER'S LIBRARY. - - Yesterday's sale (at Evans's), being the tenth day, was 'utile in old Plays, Shaksperian, &c., and most productive as to prices. Many of the lots were exceedingly interesting to the lovers of first or early editions.

" Shakespeare. A pleasant conceited Historie, called The Taming of the Shrew. A s it was sun d ry t i mes acted by th e Righte Honourable the Earl of Pembroke his servants." Unique. Printed at London by Peter Short, and are to be sold by Cuthbert Barbie, at his shop at the Royal Exchange, 1594. It was sold--a single play ! for the enormous sum of Ninety-four Pounds! " This edition. (says the catalogue) is two years earlier than any hitherto noticed. It is anonymous, and has been supposed to be the play used by Shakspeare as the foundation of his Taming of the Shrew. There is no good reason why it should not be considered as the first idea of his play, as the difference between the two is little more than that between the re cently-discovered Hamlet and the more perfect editions afterwards printed ; and also between the first edition of the Merry Wives of Windsor, 1602, and that in the folio 1623. The variations in the names of the charac ters between the present edition and that in the folio of 1623 will not militate against the supposition, as it was not an unfrequent practice among the drama tic authors of the time. Ben Jonson changed the names of the dramatis personm of his Every Man in his Hunzour, as will be seen by comparing the quarto edi tion of 1601, and the folio, 1616. In the Hamlet of 1503, Polonius is called Corantbis throughout ; and it is well known also that Sir John Falstaff originally bore the name of Sir John Oldcastk. Mr. Malone assigns the year 1594 as the date of the composition of The Tenting of the Shrew ; and when the present play was re-published in 1607, it had the name of Shakspeare, as the author, on the title-page. In whatever light it may be considered, whe ther as the play remodelled by Shakspeare, or as the first draft of his comedy, it is unquestionably of the highest literary interest and curiosity i n a Sh a k sper i an l ib rary.

[lt was mentioned that this book, which now sold for 941., was bought from Mr. Inglis's sale by Mr. Thorpe for 201.] This sale, and these lots in particular, excited great interest. MISS LANDON'S NEW ROMANCE, "FRANCESCA CARRARA."—There are scenes in this new romance by L. E. L. of great power; while the tragic incidents tell the more strongly from their energetic simplicity. Nor is the authoress less happy in her lighter and gayer scenes : she has brought all the wit and fancy of the period to the brightest era of the Court of Louis le Grand, before the Monarch, schooled as he was from the cradle in the cautious policy of a Statesman, had becomo -If-deceived hyp ocr i te o f after-life, when the Mancines the 5... • the full flower of their beauty, and Mazarin had ac revelled xi. -t influence.
