THE SUN IS NOW THE LARGEST DAILY PAPER IN LONDON. 41.1‘' •-." , p - , • JO' f Zfu LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 11, 1834. The Revenue Accounts for the year and quarter ending the 10th of October, 1834, which have just been published, are, we are happy to announce, very satisfactory. The increase for the year ending the 10th of October, 1834, compared with the income of the preceding year, is 313,4481., but a comparison of the Revenue of the quarter just ended with that of the corresponding quarter in 1833, gives a decrease of 230,0641.—a great Cle , rea3C certainly, but still by no means equal to what the country was prepared for, from the large reduction of taxes which was effected by the Reformed Parliament. The total income for the year ending the 10th of October, 1833, amounted to 43,028,392/. ; the in come for the year just ended is 43,341,8401., which gives on the last year an increase of 313,448/. Some of the heads under which an increase and decrease have been experienced, have surprised us by the way in which the various reductions in taxation have operated. The increase has been in the Cus toms, Stamps, Imprest, and other monies ; the de ficit in the Excise, Taxes, and Post-office depart ments. The increase on the year was—Customs, 985,2541.—.5tamp5, 102,355/.—lmprest and other monies, 139,7311.: and the decrease was—Excise, 596,6091.—Taxe5, 259,9851. Post-office, 38,0001. The contrast between the decrease in the Post-office department and the Taxes is extraordinary, as the latter includes the whole of the falling off that has been felt from the repeal of the house-duty. On the whole, how ever, the accounts for the year are calculated to give con fidence to the country in the wisdom and sound policy which hitherto directed the reductions that have taken place in the public burdens. It is natural that at first some difficulty should be experienced in filling up the hiatus which any reduction, however trifling, must effect in the revenue of the kingdom ; but increased consumption in some other quarter will soon more than counterbalance for a much greater temporary evil. At present we are in the condition of a husbandman who has just sowed his fields—to all outward appear ance poorer than he was when the seed was in his barn; but, in point of fact, the owner of a future har vest which promises an hundred fold increase. The LORD CHANCELLOR was received at Salis bury yesterday, we understand, in a way which must have been highly gratifying to him. The guest of one of the most honest and steady Reformers in the coun try, who has lived long enough to see the plants in full growth and bearing, of which he sowed the seeds in times when to labour for the public good seemed as hopeless a task as it was an arduous one—surrounded by the most honourable inhabitants of one of the most opulent and respectable cities in the West of England, eager to show how much they respected his talents and esteemed him for his worth, and in a place, where, .if any where, his enemies might have been supposed to have had the power to create an unfavourable impres sion respecting him received by the whole mass (with one or two exceptions) of the gentlemen and trades men of a great City, as a friend or a brother, his Lordship must have been more gratified than words can describe. We are assured, by a person who hap pened to pass through Salisbury yesterday, that of nearly two thousand persons who had assembled to offer their congratulations to his Lordship, there did not ap pear to be one who did not feel as though the City was honoured by a visit from such a distinguished guest, and who did not appear to be eager to express his esteem in language, the i m po r t o f w hi c h c ould not be mistaken. But we are told there were two or three persons in Salisbury who dared not show themselves in such an assembly. They were the toad-eaters of the Tory Lords, who reside in the neighbourhood, and who had for some days been employing themselves in a vain at tempt to set the poor against him, who had always proved himself the best friend of the poor—why ? be cause he was the guest of a Reformer—because he has been tried, and found proof against all temptation to abandon the friends of his youth, and to rank himself amongst the plunderers of the people ; because he forms a leading and most influen tial member of a Government firmly resolved to root out the abuses which have crept into the institutions of the country, and, if needful, to break up all those rotten corporations which are yet the strong holds of the corrupt and desperate portions of that crippled, we may almost say, worn out and forgotten party, which had too long revelled in power, and rioted in luxury, as the result of their meanness and political profligacy. These were the men who compelled the LORD CHANCELLOR to address his fellow-citizens from the balcony of an inn, because they kept the doors of the Council-Chamber closed against the first Peer of the realm, and that distinguished Nobleman of whom he was the guest. What folly ! How long will such men be permitted to exercise even the little influence they do in public affairs ? The French Journals of Thursday which have been received are more than usually barren of intelligence, both foreign and domestic. The accounts from Spain are not of a later date than those published in the London papers of last Thursday, from which we infer that the movements of the opposing parties in that country are not of any very important nature. We must not, however, overlook the existence of a rumour which states that the King of NAPLES, who, in the words of the Apostle to the Gentiles, " fancies him self to be somebody," is about to recognise Don CARLOS as rightful monarch of " the Two Spains," and that the POPE has recalled his Nuncio from the court of Christina. If any truth be in this rumour, which rests on the authority of official communica tions, we presume that the King of NAPLES has taken this means of convincing the Emperor of Aus- TRIA of the extreme readiness with which his Imperial Majesty's vassal is ever prepared to anticipate his sovereign will, and that his Holiness, " the servant of the servants of God," imagines that, by the course he is now following, he will be able to preserve the cone ventual property in Spain for the continuance and support of the monastic institutions. This is miserable policy, while France and England are the allies of Donna ISABELLA 11. Let but these petty powers interfere actively in the struggle, and their worst fears will be soon realized. Spain has latterly done her utmost to alienate from her the confidence and support of England and France; but yet neither of these powers will consent to see her prostrate at the feet of the Holy Alliance, as she would be most undoubtedly, did Don CARLOS sway her sceptre. General ItoDH. is still in command of the army. We regret to state that the accounts which have been received of the health of General MINA are by no means satisfactory. His recovery is so slow, that some of his friends are of opinion that he will not be able to take the field for some weeks to come. A report prevails in Paris that the Government has at length resolved upon granting a general amnesty to all persons imprisoned for political offences. We fear there is little truth in this rumour, which is eagerly swallowed by the great mass of the people, who hail the tidings as a political triumph over despotism. The Government, we are inclined to think, feels that it has gone too far to permit a safe return, and that although it regrets its own folly, still imagines that the only safe way is to go on relentlessly in the same abhorred course. It is something like a phenomenon in human nature, that the injured are much more disposed to for give, than those by whom they are injured. There is in fact much more ease in forgiving a wrong than in for giving a person to whom we have done wrong, especially if the wrong we have done him be of a very oppressive and cruel character. This we think will be found to be fully • exemplified in the conduct of the French Government towards the objects of State persecution. The Citizen-King must have known that their only crime was the carrying out of the very principles on the strength of which he was enabled to ascend the throne of France ; and consequently, having once turned his back upon them, he could never forgive their existence as living evidences of his political apostacy. Besides, the treatment of the prisoners now confined for political offences, has been so wantonly cruel throughout, that the Government cannot readily believe that men so treated will not make use of their liberty to avenge their wrongs. Perhaps we may overrate the fears of the French Govern ment on this head ; but, whether or not, we believe the only safe course will be, in disregarding them. The KING may be assured that he has already gone as far as he need hope to go with safety in the persecution of men for the mere expression of opinions, whether they regard himself, his family, or his Government. Another step may be fatal to him, notwithstanding the Barricades, and his popularity with the National Guards. The people of France are every day evincing some new sign of general discontent, and at the pre sent moment a spark dropped in Paris would set the whole kingdom in a blaze. LOUIS PHILLIPPE'S throne is no longer in the hearts of his people, and the French nation never will consent to the immolation of some of her bravest and most independent citizens to glut the revenge or quiet the fears of a King, without a principle higher than that of a speculating money jobber, or a Government of whose meanness and in capacity the country is alone confident. Since writing the above, we have received accounts from Paris which state that the question of a general amnesty was again submitted to the Council, and was rejected by a majority of one ; consequently that the parties now implicated will undergo the penalties pro vided by the laws. We have likewise learned from the same source that MM. THIERS and DE RIGNY have been permitted to hand in their resigna tions, and that the former is to be succeeded by M. GUIZOT, and the latter by M. DE BROGLIE, while M. COUSIN is to be appointed Minister of Public In struction. We do not believe that there is any foun dation for this rumour, though we give it as it has been forwarded to us. The KING is expected to re turn to Paris to-morrow, from St. Cloud, where he has been staying since his departure from Fontainbleau. As the reports of all proceedings which take place in the offices of the Metropolitan Magistracy on the subject of the Poor Law Amendment Bill are attract ing particular notice at the present moment, we beg to call attention to the case of EMMA PASSAM, a female pauper, who appeared a second time yesterday before the THE SUN, LOiNTION, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1834. Magistrates at the Marlborough-street Police-office. 'We will not recapitulate the particUlars of so obvious an attempt, through the instrumentality of a woman convicted of falsehood, of bringing the new Poor Law Bill into public odium. The conduct of Mr. CONANT, the acting Magistrate, was far from being creditable 'to him, whatever he may think of it. The Bench is but indifferently graced when its occupants league themselves with such charac ters as EMMA PASSAM, for the purpose of entrapping parish officers into an abuse of the power with which they are entrusted. But we leave this to the consideration of the Government and the country who, we doubt not, will estimate such proceedings at their proper worth. One would almost think that the loss of the Bampfield Moore Carew sceptre which the Magistracy wielded so much to the satisfaction of their subjects, has made them forget that they are not vested with authority to rail against the laws, but to dispense them in the impartial and paternal spirit of the legislature. They may rely upon it that their pre sent conduct on the New Poor Law has not escaped observation, and will yet be followed by the reward it so properly deserves. HAMBURG MARKETS.

On Thusday evening a most destructive fire broke out in the extensive premises of Messrs. Powell and Brown, oil and pickle merchants, Laurence Pountney-lane. At about halfpast twelve o'clock smoke was seen to issue from the premises, and a number of poor persons who inhabit small tenements at the rear of them, expressed a wish to move their things, being apprehensive that a fire was about to break out. However their fears were quieted, by being assured that there was no danger. At five o'clock immense volumes of smoke issued from the premises, which were succeeded by one of the largest bodies of flame in the recollection of the oldest fireman. At six o'clock the raging element was at its height, and threatened the destruction of the whole neighbourhood. The window, frames of the houses opposite the lane were burned, and the firemen were obliged to play upon them for a considerable time, it being supposed at one period that they must have shared the same fate as the premises, which were then one mass of fire. The property destroyed is said to amount to between 20,0001. and 30,000/. The firm was insured in the Atlas and Globe offices. There were as many as twenty engines playing upon the premises at one time, without producing any ap parent effect on the flames. The proprietors had but just finished their pickling for the season ; and it is said that the fire originated in consequence of the carlessness of some of the workmen in the establishment, whose duty it was to attend to some part of the pickling process. Too much praise cannot be bestowed upon the firemen of the different offices, who, regardless of their own safety, engaged the de vasting enemy in the most prompt and vigorous manner ; and upon the City police, who were most active in render ing every assistance in their power to the firemen, and in keeping the avenues clear, so that the engines might have full play. The Marshal sent for a party of military from the Tower, who speedily arrived. The fire was not got under until after nine o'clock. The churchwardens of the parish granted the use of the church-yard to the poor peo ple, to put in whatever portion of their furniture they were eiAled to save. THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. We have no arrivals this morning with the exception of the French Mail, express from Paris, and the New York papers to the 17th. The contents of the above arrivals will be seen in another part of the paper. From Madrid we have no later dates than previously re ceived of the 30th ult., which is rather extraordinary, and which we attribute to the Carlists having again possession of the main road to Bayonne. The information from the theatre of war in Spain is insignificant, and we do not expect any movements or fighting until General Mina commences his operations. THE FUNDS. The deficiency or decrease of the Quarter's Revenue of 330,0641., has not caused much excitement in the City, owing to the large amount of taxes being taken off; nor has it bad any effect on the Funds. Consols opened at 90i for the Account, since which they have been done at 90i ; Spanish, nominally, 571 5 8 ; Portuguese, 81i 2. As yet we do not hear of any express from Madrid, al though expected every hour. A general opinion prevails, that Colonel Wyld will pro ceed to Don Carlos's head-quarters, to offer him some sort of terms to prevent the further effusion of blood. It is confidently stated on 'Change, that letters are in town, of the Ist of October, from Madrid ; and their con tents arc of a more favourable nature respecting the Cotes Bonds. HALF-PAST ONE. (From the New York Papers received this morning.) The Secretary of the Treasury has given notice that the five million loan of 1821 will be paid off on the 2d January nest. To the present hour we do not hear of any express from Madrid, which causes the Spanish Stock to be heavy at 57 to 571 ; Portuguese, 81,i 82. Consols have been during the morning at 908 to 91 for the account. THREE 0' CL 0 CA. Next Monday being a holiday with Hebrews (the White Fast), few of them w;11 make their appearance in the commercial world. Consols for the Account, 908 91. It is our duty this day to announce the death of the Rev. James Stanier Clarke, LL. D., Rector of Preston-cum- Hove, and a Canon of Windsor. Dr. Clarke, who died on the Marine Parade on Saturday last, was the brother of the celebrated traveller, and was himself distinguished for his literary attainments. He was for many years the librarian at Carlton House, and was honoured by the intimate friendship and countenance of our late most gracious King.—Brighton Gazette. At the Revising Barristers' Court at Colchester the claim of a voter was objected to on the ground that he had been convicted of receiving stolen goods. The answer to this objection was that the voter had received a free pardon from his Majesty which reinstated him in his rights. The Barrister (Mr. Chambers) decided in favour of the claim. In the borough of Sudbury the claim of a guard of a coach was ob jected to on the ground of non-residence, but as it appeared he slept alternate nights in the borough his claim was admitted. UNCERTAINTY OF THE LAW.—At the Petty Sessions at Mistley, Essex, a man was charged with stealing a dog_; and the eviden ce seeme d very conclusive. An objec tion, however, was raised on the part of the prisoner, that the dog was a bitch, which the Bench held to be fatal, and the prisoner was discharged.—Bury Post. LYNN, OCT. 6.--On Thursday last, at a full meet ing of the Commissioners of Navigation under the Eau Brink Acts, held at the Guildhall in this town, George Edwards, Esq., civil engineer, of Lowestoft, was unanimously appointed engineer to the Commissioners in the place of the late Thos. Telford, Esq.—Cambridge Chronicle. WATERFORD AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY.—The members of this Society dined at Cummins's Hotel, Water ford, on Monday evening last ; Viscount Ebrington in the chair. Amongst the company present, we noticed Messrs. H. Winston Barron, M. P., William Christmas, M. P., Patrick Power (Bellevue), Alexander Sherlock, Major and Captain Snow, and, in fact, all the principal landed proprietors of the city and neighbourhood. After a few toasts, Mr. Roberts read a long and interesting report of the proceedings of the society for the last year. On the evening of Thursday, an accident of a most lamentable description occurred near Mrs. Barker's academy, between the towns of Braintree and Bocking, Essex. Mr. Stacey, a young man 21 years of age, of respectable connec tions, about half-past eight, was walking in company with two young women ; when closely engaged in conversation, a horse was rode by some person at a most furious pace against Mr. Stacey and his female companions, by which they were all knocked down. Mr. Stacey had the base of his skull frac tured, which caused immediate death. The two young women were also considerably injured. The coroner's jury returned a verdict of " Manslaughter against some person unknown."— Cambridge Chronicle. CORPORATION COMMISSION.-(THIS DAY.) The Commissioners, Sir F. PAL GRAVE and Mr. ELLIS sat again this mornin g to hea r a ny ev id ence th a t m i g ht b e be ofered with respect to the affairs of the Mercers' Company. Sir F. PALGRAVE, at the sitting of the Court, stated that the Commissioners had received a letter from the Clerk of the Salters' Company, in which he said he was out of town when the notice and list of inquiries were sent to him. He did not know whether he would be al lowed to give any further evidence than had already been furnished to the Commissioners : he would, however, take the sense of the Court of Assistants upon the matter, and communicate their decision. The inquiry into the affairs cf the Mercers' Company was especially appointed for this morning.; but none of the Company attended. The Commissioner stated that they had also received a letter from the Clerk of that Company, declining to attend until he had received the instructions of his Court. Sir F. PALGRAVE begged that it might be understood that the clerks of every company had been informed by cir cular, that those inquires would be presented early in Oc tober ; therefore it was not strictly the fact that they were not now prepared, at all events they had had enough of time. Mr. WOODTHORPE having been sent for, attended, and stated that he was a freeman of the Stationers' Company ; he was anxious for the attendance of the clerk of that Com pany to explain the bye-laws. Mr. F. PALGRAVE said the clerk of that Company had told them that he considered it was unnecessary to attend, forhe could give no further information than he had done on a former occasion. That information was given to him (Sir F.) when sitting individually, and went merely to their charters. It gave no information relative to their bye-laws, or the admission of the Liverymen. Mr. WOODTHORPE was anxious to have the bye-laws ex plained, for he was born free of the Company, and so long ago as June 1801, he applied to them to take up his Livery ; but they refused to admit him, because he was not connected with the trade, unless he signed a sort of bond, disclaiming all right to the profits and stock of the Company. He re fused to sign away any part of his birthright, and notwith standing the office he held in the City, he was yet only a freeman. There were many Liverymen who had signed such a document, and he was pretty clearly of opinion, that those who had done so were not Liverymen in fact, and that their votes would not stand an investigation. Mr. TAYLOR, the Common Councilman, had attended, in the hope of having some information respecting the ac counts between the Mercers' Company and the Gresham Fund. He believed there was a sum of 30,000/. due by Company to the Fund, which required explanation. As they refused to appear, the public must draw their own con clusions upon the matter. Mr. FRANKS (Common Councilman), said he had gone to the Mercers' Hall with the Act .56 Geo. 111., which bound all Companies to allow any person to inspect their lists of the Livery. The Clerk, however, refused, though he offered the 2s. 6d., as directed by the Act. Mr. JARSOM, a fishmonger, said he applied to his Com pany for the same list, which they offered to give ; but, as they entered every one as they were admitted, and bad no account of deaths or changes of residence, the list, there fore, would be useless. Mr. BISHOP, the gentleman who yesterday promised to give some interesting evidence relative to the Mercers' Com pany, was several times called, but did not answer. h e CommlssioNEß inquired whether any one was pre pared to give any information respecting the Company ? No one answered, and the Court was adjourned till Monday. BANKRUPTCY COURT.-(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Com Missioner EVANS.) IN THE MATTER OF BENTLEY, DEAR, AND CO. , A very numerous meeting of the creditors of this firm took place this morning for the purpose of appointing assignees. _ On the Learned Commissioner taking his seat, Mr. LEIGH, a solicitor, said that before the business of the day commenced, he wished, on the part of Mr. Thorn ton, to correct a mis-statement that had gone forth at a previous meeting of the creditors in this matter. It had been said that Mr. Thornton had been summoned for the purpose of being examined before the Learned Commis sioner ; but the fact was that Mr. Thornton had no inti mation of the meeting, and it was only at two o'clock on the day the meeting took place that Mr. Thornton was apprized by a note, that the Commissioner was waiting to examine him. He (Mr. Leigh) had subsequently waited upon Mr. Ashurst, and informed him that Mr. Thornton was out of town ; and he thought that puffs and paragraphs relative to the non-attendance of Mr. Thornton should not have been published, which were totally un founded. In conclusion, he begged to say that if there was any wish on the part of the meeting.to examine Mr. Thorn ton, he would attend with pleasure. The COMMISSIONER said that there had been no intima tion made to him, on the part of the creditors, of a wish to examine Mr. Thornton. Mr. LEIGH then withdrew. Mr. Ashurst said there was a claim made by Mr. King for a sum of 3,5001. advanced upon a bill, which, on the part of the estate, he would feel it his duty to object to. The transaction had taken place in Mr. Gummersall's counting house, and the money had been actually paid to Bentley. He thought it was a case which required some investigation. The COMMISSIONER said he should require strict proof of the payment of the money. If the creditor persevered in pressing his proof, he (the Commissioner) did not see how he could refuse to receive it. Mr. Ashurst said the money had never been paid to the firm—they had never received it. After some further conversation- relative to the postpone ment of the proof to a future day, Mr. King was examined by Mr. MONTAGUE, and deposed that he was not in business, and resided at Hammersmith. Produced a bill drawn by Gummersall in favour of Bentley, Dear and Co., and endorsed by Bentley and Co. The bill was delivered to him on the day it bears date (the 2d Septem ber). He was in London at the time. He had come to London for the purpose of discounting it. An application had been previously made to him on the subject by Mr. Gummersall, personally, at a dinner party. The Learned COMMISSIONER here interrupted the exa mination. The sum, he observed, was a large one to be discounted by a person out of business, and he thought, the examination should be postponed, and inquired into at a private meeting of the creditors. Mr. Ashurst then inquired if there were any persons to prove papers bearing the endorsement of Gummersall and Gamble ; and no person having come forward, he observed that he had waited for an hour expecting that certain bills would be put in, but as none had been tendered, he would suggest that Messrs. Gummersall and Gamble be allowed to retire, as they had business to transact in their counting house. The COMMISSIONER said there could be no objection, provided that if their presence was again required they would be ready to attend. Messrs. Daniel Evans, Edward Wilson, and James Brand were then named as assignees, without any oppo sition. We understand the claims against the estate amount to upwards of 120,0001. WESTMINSTER SESSIONS.-(THIS DAY.) (Before FRANCIS CoNet, Esq., Chairman, and a Bench of Magistrates.) _ _ Thomas Flint, a squalid' looking . wretch, was indicted for assaulting, on the 7th of September last, Maria Bailey, with intent, &c. The 2d count of the indictment charged the prisoner with only a common assault. Maria Bailey, a pretty looking little girl, 12 years of age, stated that she resided in York -street, Westminster, with her mother, who employed her at needle-work. Her mo ther went out Charing, during which time she remained in the house. Witness did not know the prisoner, who lived in Snow's Rents, till she was taken to his house by a littl e girl named Esther Gray. Witness was goinc , to her grand mother's when she met Esther Gray, who asked her to go with her to her uncle's. Witness agreed to this, and was taken by her to the house of the prisoner, who opened the door, took both of them by the arms, and forced them in. (The evidence here was unfit for publication.) The pri soner kept the witness locked up in his place all night, and the next morning went out, and sold her clothes and kept her without food. Witness on the third day asked him to let her go home ; he said he would not, that he had her prisoner and would take a room at Lambeth, where she would do very well without her mother. On being intreated, the prisoner refused to let her go. He kept her there seven days—at last the witness escaped through the window, and went to her mother's, to whom she related all the circumstances, after which the prisoner was taken into custody. Cross-examined by Mr. ADOLPHUS (who appeared for the prisoner, at the request of the Court)—Knew Esther Gray by going to chapel with her. She had made a simi lar complaint against the prisoner. Was three days and three nights without eating, drinking, or sleeping. By Mr. TIDD PRATT—Went with the prisoner to Mrs. Hutchins, in Orchard-street, to sell the clothes. While he was in there witness walked about. The mother of the prosecutrix gave evidence in many points totally at variance with the statements of her daugh ter ; and the Jury, under the advice of the Chairman, ac quitted the prisoner. The CHAIRMAN, addressing the prisoner, said he had had a very narrow escape. It was clear he was addicted to the committal of offences which were a disgrace to him, and if be did not alter the course he was pursuing, he would find the law would overtake him. An Irishman, named Barry, was indicted for assaulting a person named Symes. It appeared from the statement of the prosecutor, who appeared with his arm in a sling, that on Saturday last he had some words with the prisoner, who out of revenge struck him with all his force over the arm with a saw which he had in his hand, and which nearly cut through the flesh to the bone. The case was clearly proved against the prisoner. The Jury found him Guilty, and the Court sentenced him to six months' imprisonment, and hard labour, in the House of Correction. There were several appeals against the conviction of Sir F. Roe, in all of which the respondents did not appear. The Court, therefore, allowed the appeals, and there being no other business to proceed with, rose shortly after 12 o'clock. MARLBOROUGH-STREET.-(THIS DAY.) Two very fashionably dressed young men, who gave their names as Henry White and Charles Crace, and stated that they belonged to the University of Oxford, were charged with creating a disturbance in the pit of the Hay market Theatre, and violently assaulting the Officers in at tendance there on their proceeding to turn them out. It appeared that about 9 o'clock during the performance of " Married and Single," the defendants, in a state of vio lent intoxication, entered the pit of the Theatre, and by their outrageous behaviour in shouting, laughing, &c., elicited from the rest of the audience general disappro bation, which not having the effect of restraining them to a propriety of demeanour, a general call of " turn them out " arose. The clamour rose to such a height that the performers were at a stand-still, and there was every appearance of the interruption being persevered in, when Mr. Miles, the Head-Constable of the • establishment, interfered, and seizing the defendants, attempted to eject them from the theatre, but they commenced a most violent resistance, fighting, kicking, biting, &c., any person who came in their way ; and it was not until overpowered by numbers that they were secured and conveyed to the sta tion-house, where, passing the night in durance vile, had effectually made them fully sensible of their extreme folly and misconduct. _ _ The defendants were informed that the hearing of the case required the presence of two Magistrates to dispose of it summarily, and that it must stand over until the latter part of the day. The defendants said their interests would be much preju diced if they were not at Oxford at a certain time, and begged the case might be proceeded with. They were in formed that they ought previously to have considered of the circumstance, and the case was deferred. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) (FROM LLOYD'S.)
