SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS, We knew well that the Tories never would face the Reformers at a public meeting in the metropolis. The advertisement calling the meeting was, as we yesterday observed, drawn up in so ambiguous a manner, that if the Reformers had manifested no disposition to attend, the Tories would have boasted of having been left in undisturbed possession of the field, in consequence of the dread of their opponents to face them. But when it became known that the Reformers would show that they yielded to no class of their fellow-citizens in a de sire " to express their assurance of loyalty and attach ment to their Sovereign," and would be ready to prove that they were the best friends of their Sovereign who wished to see him surrounded with upright and faith ful Councillors, the Tories instantly took fright, and and in an advertisement published in the Times of yesterday, expressly excluded from the meeting, all who did not concur in the sentiments con tained in the address intended to be submitted to it. Nothing but a knowledge derived from experience of the trickery of the Tories would have induced the Re formers to watch their movements so closely as they did on the present occasion. So far from having any wish to intrude on the Tories, they waited on Mr. Ward on Monday evening, with a view of eliciting from him whether the meeting was to be public or private, that they might be guided accordingly ; for all that they wished was to rescue the City of London from the disgrace of appearing to sanction, by the resolutions of a public meeting, the dismissal of the late Ministry and the appointment of successors odious to the nation, from the principles constantly avowed by them to the very date of their acceptance of office, and whose only claim to confidence consisted in their declarations that they would abandon those principles, and act on the principles of the men whom they had always op posed in public, and counteracted in private, by the most scandalous intrigues. But Mr. Ward would not be explicit with them, and they saw in the Times of yesterday the most pressing exhortations to the partisans of the Tories to attend in force at the meet ing. " Once more (exclaimed that journal in the bold style of exhortation it used to address to the peo ple when it was their organ)—once more, for the last time, because it is the latest moment at which such exhortations can be made available, we most earnestly recommend and urge all the gentlemen who have signed the requisition for the great city meeting this day, and all who agree with them in sentiment, and all whom they can by discussion or example influence, to attend in person, and maintain their opinions by their presence, their voices, and their votes." The voice was loud as ever and menacing as ever ; for the Tyrtmus of Printing-house-square, by way of stimulating the Tory bands, told them that " they might become, each of them, as the necessity arose, peace-officers, and with their own right hands protect themselves from aggression." The right hands with which the Tories love to fight are the right hands of the Horse-Guards. They knew that Englishmen, whom their arguments could not persuade, were as little to be bullied. Why, the Reformers could, for that matter, have made minced-meat of them. To do the Tories justice, they evinced no lack of discretion, but from the beginning manifested the same consciousness of inability to meet the Reformers, which they have constantly done ever since the commencement of the Peel-Roden-Wellington Administration. Finding it no longer possible to pass the cheat on the public that their Address was adopted by a public meeting, fairly called to discuss it, they came to terms with the Reformers, left them in possession of the field, and prudently withdrew to a closet, in which they quietly dispatched their business, and voted thanks to Mr. Ward for his conduct in the great room from which they were obliged to decamp. The Tories had tried to pack the meeting, and had actually occupied the hustings and the space in front of it, before the doors were thrown open to the public ; but all these contrivances did not enable them to exclude the Re formers, who, in fact, constituted nineteen-twentieths of the whole. The latter carried a resolution of ad journment to the London Tavern, and proceeded to the great room there, which was instantly crowded to overflowing by the most respectable citizens of Lon don. The Tory address obtained, we understand, two oe three thousand signatures. It can surprise no one, surely, that in a great metropolis like this, a Tory Ministry should obtain two or three thou sands of signatures to any address whatsoever. Were the Reformers to deem it necessary to pro pose a counter address, they could early obtain ten re spectable signatures for every signature to the Tory address. But the approaching dissolution will give them an opportunity of practically demonstrating their superiority to their opponents in a manner to which no exception can be taken. In the meantime, the Tories will take a lesson from the result of yesterday's ma nceuvre, and remain quiet in their holes and corners. Let them court seclusion, and then avail themselves of exclusion ; but if ever they attempt to pass them selves off at public meetings as the respectable inha bitants of the metropolis, they will assuredly be driven from the field with disgrace. What exultation there would have been, if their trick had succeeded ! The report of the Times would have been circulated in a convenient form, like Sergeant Spankie's sophistical addresses, and triumphantly quoted by Tory 'Squires and High-Church Parsons at their Conservative din ners. There would have been no end of the inferences drawn from the re-action in London. Alas, they find to their cost, that the re-action exists only in their crazed imaginations. The people of England are not so enamoured of their enemies as to prostrate them selves before the men who opposed the Reform Bill, because it would enable them to command the blessings of good Government—who factiously opposed every beneficial measure proposed by the Whigs since the passing of the Reform Bill—and now, by a desperate effort, have seized the reins of Governmont, in order to defeat, if poss ibl e , the just expectation s o f th e nat i on . They know that, disguiseit as they will, the Tories sire the enemies of all reforms, the patrons of all abuses, and that they only seek power to use it injurio us ly to the best interests of the community.—Morning Chron. We would direct attention to the report, which ap pears in another column, of the entertainment given at the Mansion-house yesterday, and attended by most, if mot all, of his Majesty's Ministers, and by many of the most distinguished public characters of the day. The Administration having already put forth its de claration in the shape of an address from Sir Robert Peel, it was not to be expected that they should keep anything in reserve for the particular occasion to which we now allude. All that could be expected was a corroborative statement—a statement to the same effect as before. Still the speech of Sir Robert will be read with great interest, for the calm but firm spirit which it brssathes, and the reasoning tone in which it addresses itself !o the common sense of the nation.— Morning Herald. in the City o f L on d on Yesterday was a Meat for the cause of reform, and ie destructi on o f t h e party which, though not opposed to ai l ! reform, wo u ld give us as little reform as we could possibly be Contented svith. The morning meeting proved the weakness of the party, as we have shown elsewhere ; and the dinner at the Mansion House, in the afternoon, showed any thing but alacrity in the cause for which it had been engaged. It was a Tory meeting, unquestionably— :and composed, as we think, of something less than 250 persons, most respectable, and most honourable, as well as most worthy in many re spects, for their public services, of public appro batk.”l ; but it was not an unanimous meeting— we shouLl almost say that it was one of the most sombre at h we were ever present ;—no fault, however, of the L ord Mayor—who proved himself liberal, so far as the press Is concerned, and who did his best to bolster the cause in which he was unfor tunately engaged. Indeed—but, being a guest, we forbear making observations at all analogous with the conduct of certain high functionaries of the Govern ment in the L or d M a y or ' s d raw ing-room. Sir Robert Peel's speech will be read with interest by all classes. It was the only political speech of the evening—and to those who are in the secret it told great secrets I Public opinion ! What, Sir Robert, public opinion I public confidence Oh ! o h I o h !—The Ministry is all but defunct. There was a sad omen last night at the dinner—and the Pre- .mier, though he passed it off in the most plausible TEE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBEII 24, 1834. manner, did not like it—his name was omitted in the list of toasts, and the grin went round that he would yield his office to the Duke of Wellington ; he, how ever, made a bold speech—which it will be our busi ness to analyze to-morrow. It is a pity it was so dif fuse—it is a pity also that Lord Lyndhurst and the Duke of Wellington did not relish it. At the dinner were many—including the venerable and most worthy Bishop of London—who did not applaud the toasts, but, on the contrary, stuck fast to their chairs.—Morn ing Advertiser. We refer our readers, ,with great pleasure, to our report of the public meetings that were yesterday held in the city. The Tories ought now to be quite satis fied that the Reformers ate not to be deceived by the wily representations of Sir Robert and his colleagues. To the glory of the citizens of London the Conserva tives were compelled to retreat from the field in which they had intended to erect the standard of bigotry and oppression. For once they have been beaten, in spite of their tactics ; and now that they have failed to fa ther upon the merchants, bankers, shipowners, and traders of the City of London, their narrow and despotic notions, they have the effrontery to tell us they called a private meeting, though they intended to hold it in the Great Room at the City of London Tavern. But they are fallen, and so utterly disgraced, that when their victorious opponents retired to their own camp to record their triumphs, there was not sufficient courage left among them to return to the scene of their defeat. The reform meeting held in the great room of the London Tavern was as nume rously attended as that which was held on Friday last, and was characterized by the same moderate and de termined course of action. The Times, and the party it has joined, will probably tell us that the violent ex pression of public feeling which destroyed the hopes of the Tories, was the voice of a mob—a term by which that journal has latterly been pleased to designate every assembly that is not quite satisfied with the Dictator, and Sir Robert Peel. This assertion, however, is most triumphantly denied by the character and action of the reform meeting. It evinced but one feeling, a deter mined opposition to the Conservative administration— a feeling warranted by the perfect assurance that in its hands the Reform Bill would be defaced and muti lated, and the liberties of the country curtailed. Its doom is already determined, but a continued unity of action is still necessary ; and should the Dictator suc ceed in his wish to dissolve the present Parliament, London will set an example which Englishmen will follow with pride. The continuation of abuses, or re form and liberty, must be the result of the next appeal to the people. Reformers ! be firm and active, and thus immediately secure the results which necessarily belong to the charter we have wrested from the aris tocracy ; and bestow upon posterity a regenerated con stitution, that shall add glory to its birthright, and renewed and continued prosperity to our country.— Morning Advertiser. We should refrain from any comment upon the in teresting and important speeches delivered yesterday at the hospitable table of the Lord Mayor, even if we were not deprived of the pleasure of expressing the sentiments they are so well calculated to inspire by the lateness of the hour at which the very full report, which will be found in another part of our paper, was completed. And this forbearance we should exercise in the persuasion that our readers would be but little disposed to endure our comparatively feeble and worth less reflections on the same day on which they are presented with these luminous displays of eloquence and wisdom. His Majesty's Ministers have now, in the presence of the elite of the metro polis, pledged themselves collectively and indivi dually to the constitutional principles of Conservative reformation, to the views of sound and practical wisdom, to the feelings of loyalty, patriotism, and honour which pervade every line of the address of Sir Robert Peel to the Electors of Tamworth, as they breathe in every word of the manly, fervent, eloquent, yet discreet, moderate, conciliatory, and statesmanlike speech which was delivered at the Mansion House last night by the Prime Minister of Great Britain. We are deeply grateful to the Lord Mayor for the opportunity he has afforded to the Members of the King's Government to proclaim their sentiments and intentions, and to mani fest their cordial unanimity in the presence of the most honourable and intelligent of their fellow-subjects ; for we are persuaded that the more the respectable and enlightened classes of the community know of the cha racter, feelings, and purposes of the present Adminis tration, the higher place will they accord to it in their esteem, confidence, and affection.—Morning Post. We may now confidently appeal to our readers whe ther the Times of yesterday did not predict, most cor rectly, and most minutely, what afterwards took place at the City of London Tavern. The gentlemen who summoned the meeting for the especial purpose of ap proving, and signing, an address declaratory of certain definite opinions, acted liberally and not unwisely, in opening to all the world a meeting, the object of which pre-supposed an entire correspondence of opinion amongst those who should attend it. The conse quence was what we had expressly anticipated,— clamour, violence, fury, brutality,—the apartment stormed by a ruffian, unlistening, unreasoning mob, — a refusal to hear a single speaker, not even those who were of their own kidney in politics ; but in stead of the attention to be looked for from civi- ized beings, when spoken to by their fellow-citizens upon great national concerns, yells, hootings, and savage execrations, during the prevalence of which (and they were incessant) not one word could be dis tinguished of that which the Chairman or other gen tlemen strove to utter, but every sound, save those of these brutal ranters, was stifled ; and so far as related to the business of the " open" meeting, the proceed ings were neutralized, and nothing was done. Here, then, was a regular " Destructive" triumph. 'Here was the natural return to be expected from such person for the free admission of those who called themselves " Reformers" to a place from which they might, with all propriety, have been excluded. And this is what in the language of their placards we are to understand by a " signal defeat of the Tories." Thus, it is the " defeat" of an argument, when you will not hear it —the defeat of a motion, when you will not' suffer it to be put—the refutation of a fact, when you out- I roar the man who states it—the overthrow of a meeting, when you assail it by a mob. On the conduct of individuals we are loth to ani madvert. That of Mr. Grote has been differently represented, in the diverse reports which have been submitted to us ; and as, where direct testimonies are at variance, it is but charitable to judge by the previous character of the parties, we will give the Hon. Gen tleman credit for a less obvious departute from dignity and delicacy than some of the spectators have ascribed to him. For particulars, we refer to the several ac counts detailed in other columns; but as a general conclusion from the whole scene, we beg to notice the observation of the Chairman, Mr. Ward, when acknowledging the vote of thanks unanimously passed to him by the Committee—viz., that " He trusted all present would be warned by the scene which had just taken place, as to the sort of hands which the country must fall into, if they did not strenuously support the I—..(ent Ministers." A fair trial being thus afforded the w ho b n ie e b sty tb a y il i jiauvsee“n justice of the Destructive crew, the exposure already hi nte d , be rn w ed it f h lt i hemselves can not, as we have proved th emse l ves on t hi s as on Public benefit. benefit. They have other occasions alike void of decency, principle, and sense. Tile.Y would hear nothing, a n d, t h ere f ore, cou ld l earn not hin g ; _! their " opinion" was expressed by the war-whoop o f vindictive savages. H owever , t h e counteractino power has begun to show itself. W e po i nte d out yesterday, that after demonstrating the futility of any thing in the shape of an open meeting, the respectable classes of men who had authorized the advertisement, and who approved the address, had still left to them the unambi guous resource of a publication of their sentiments, at tested by their names and descriptions. This has been done, or is, while we write, in progress of accomplish ment. At five o'clock yesterday we are informed that they amounted to nearly 5,000 names, with the address remem bered of each annexed to it. No exhibition of political feeling so extensively pervading the hig . l e ie s r u c p l p as o s s e e s , b of men o business in the metropolis can, we by the oldest individual among them, and the moral effect throughout the kingdom will keep pace with it. The struggle is not one between the Reform principle and that of no Reform—there never was a more gross delusion—the fight is between Reform and revolution. There is no party of any real importance in this country who are not satisfied that the reform system must be persevered in ; but there is a party — formidable at once from numbers, restlessness, igno rance, and combination—who would not be satisfied with any change but such as was equivalent to a sub version of the Monarchy. It is against such men—not against. poor dreaming antideluvian Tories—that an English patriot and statesman ought no-iv to guard. The dinner at the Mansion-house was well attended, and a spirit of personal cordiality, and apparent confi dence in the result of the crisis, seemed to animate the principal guests. Sir Robert Peel addressed the com pany in a speech of considerable force, and taking it in connexion with the . document published on the 18th inst., we were gratified to find throughout it full con firmation of those promises of corrective and constitu tional policy which were contained in the address to Tamworth. Indeed, the Right Hon. Baronet rendered distinct homage to the necessity of consulting the spirit of the age, and we shall f e el surpri s ed and dis appointed if it be not allowed, before many months, that the acts of the Right Hon. Baronet s Govern ment more than realize the liberal part of his declara tians.—Times. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, DEC. 20. Lord LYNDHURST sat this morning and gave several judgments in cases that had been fully argued. THE DEAN AND CHAPTER OF DURHAM V. SHERBORNE HOSPITAL. His LORDSHIP said this was a suit instituted for an ac count of tithes of certain lands in the occupation of the de fendants, the Master and Brethren of Sherborne Hospital, to which the defendants pleaded that the lands were situated within the county palatine of Durham, and within the ju risdiction of the Court of Chancery of Durham ; and that the plaintiffs and defendants were resident within the same. The question was whether, in a suit of this nature, such a plea was a sufficient defence. Any person who took the trouble of considering the authorities in cases of this de scription as applicable to suits of equity would find them difficult to be reconciled and many of them contradictory ; but it appeared to him unnecessary to go into the general question, because his judgment was founded upon the par ticular nature of the present suit. It was principally for an account of tithes which had been severed by the de fendants, and which, after severance, the defendants had appropriated to their own use. It was quite clear that exclusive jurisdiction in cases of this kind could only be maintained on grounds such as that the lands and matters in the bill were strictly local. But this case did not fall within this description. It was true that in a bill filed for an account of tithes the right to the tithes might be questioned ; but that would not render the suit local. If a party received the rent of cer tain lands, and an action was brought to recover the rent as money had and received the action might be brought in any county ; yet in this case the right to the land might be decided, and such a case was analagous to the present. His view of the case was not without authorities ; he did not mean direct authorities, but such as were analogous to the present. The case of " Edgworth v. Davies" was a suit in stituted for an account of the tithes of certain lands, and the defendant pleaded that they were situated within the County Palatine of Chester and its jurisdiction, and that the parties were resident within the same. The case was argued at great length, and the Court came to the conclu sion that the plea ought to be overruled, but without costs. The decision in the case of " Miller v. Jackson" also sup ported this view of the case, and upon the whole he was of opinion that the present plea must be overruled, but, as in the other cases referred to, without costs. PARRY V. DAWSON. His LORDSHIP said that he had formerly considered his judgment in this case, and was about to deliver it, but lie understood that the parties were about to come to an ami cable arrangement. This he found was a mistake. He had again looked to his notes, which were extremely full ; had reviewed the authorities , and he entertained the same opinion that he had originally formed. The question turned principally upon the will of William Parry. By a clause in his will William Parry devised certain estates to his wi dow in fee, in order that she might dispose of them to his second and third sons in such manner, shares, and propor tion as she should think fit. She had disposed of one eighth, and held in fee the other seven-eighths, and the question was whether the will constituted a mere power or a trust. If it were a mere power the part of the property undisposed of would go to the heir at law, but if it were a trust the Court was bound to see it carried into effect. A great variety of cases had been cited, but none of them were very applicable. The fact was that cases of this nature depended upon ordinary circumstances, and the particular phrases used. Tho ques tion then was what construction would the Court put upon the terms of this will. He was of opinion, after giving the best consideration to the subject, that it was not a mere power, but a trust, and that the property was given to the widow in fee, in order that she might dispose of it for the benefit of the two younger sons ; and lie was of opinion that this was the intention of the testator when lie made this disposition of his property. The Court must therefore see that the trust was properly executed. But there was another question, which was this, namely, whether the two sons took as joint tenants or as tenants in common, and upon this question he was of opinion, from the word " shares" made use of in the will, that it was intended that they should take as tenants in common. His Lordship, after disposiag of some minor points of the case, concluded by directing an account, according to the prayer of the bill. His LORDSHIP, after giving several more judgments, and disposing of several petitions by consent, said he wished to inform the gentlemen of the Bar that he should not sit in this Court again ; and expressed his acknowledgments for the great attention be had received from them since he pre sided as Lord Chief Baron. All the Counsel present at this moment simultaneously rose and bowed. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, DEC. 23. IN THE MATTER OF JOHN JOHNSON CROSSFIELD. This was a re-hearing under the 67th section of the Act on the part of a Mr. Thomas Smith, a creditor. The case, which had been before the Court on several former occa sions, was to-day finally decided. The insolvent, an elderly man, who appeared to be on the verge of the grave, has been a plumber, &c., in Drury-lane. He was dischargen as an insolvent debtor in March last. He was unopposed, and in his schedule he had made statements relating to his property which were proved to be false. He was after his release proceeded against by Mr. Smith, who was an ad mitted creditor in his schedule, and in July was arrested for costs he had incurred, and from that period he had been an inmate in Whitecross-street prison. An application was some time ago made for a re-hearing on affidavits, which disclosed the concealment of considerable property, and im puted perjury to the insolvent in respect to the statements made in the schedule. A rule was granted, and the in solvent in answer denied the allegations made against him. The rule was mad e a b so l ute , an d on two subsequent occa sions evidence was adduced which went to show a conceal ment of considerable property. A point was raised that Mr. Smith was no creditor, inasmuch as he was an uncer t:ficated bankrupt. He was declared a bankrupt fourteen years ago, and for the last ten years it had been abandoned. The Court took time to consider, and now decided that Le was a creditor. Counsel were heard in aggravation and mitigation. Mr. Commissioner BOWEN gave judgment. The Court held that a serious case of fraudulent concealment of pro perty had been established against the insolvent, which called for a severe reprimand as a warning to others. The Court took into consideration the imprisonment he had suffered and his state of health. The former adjudication was ordered to be revoked, he was re-committed to prison, and ordered to be imprisoned for nineteen calendar months. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET. Yesterday the following four persons, venders of un stamped publications, were summoned to this office for selling papers containing news, printed upon unstamped paper, namely, William Nicholas Fagnoit, of High Holborn ; Thomas Haines, of Cable-street, St. Georges-in-the-East ; Janes Miller Ucklebridge, of 26, Crown-street, St. Gil es ' s ; and George Jeftry, of 12, Brill-row, and 14, Union -street, Somers-town. The two first defendants pl ea d e d guilty, and th e i n fli ct i on of the pe:7ltics was postponed for a fortnight, up on th e i r promise not to repeal L ll ,e offence. eso In the other two cases the deiendants were not pr nt, and were proceeded against exparte. The defendant Jeffery told the summoning officer he would keep his shop open, and sell in spite of the law. They were convicted in the penalty of 201. and costs each, and in default of immediate payment they w ill b e committed to the House of Correction for six months. HATTON-GARDEN. Yesterday William H. Perch, aged fourteen, was finally examined, charged with having shot Thomas Davenport, aged thirteen, son to Mr. Davenport, I %lYddleton-street, injured. It by which he was seriously It appeared in evidence that on Saturday, the 13th inst., the prisoner and some other boys were amusing themselves firing off a gun in Clerkenwell Churchyard, when the pri soner fired off the gun and the contents entered the arm of the prosecutor, who was accidentally passing by, H e was taken t o a surgeon ' s , an d u lti ma tely to his father's house, .where he has since been lying in a dangerous condition. The wound it appears was near the elbow, and was caused by a bullet. • Mr. BENNETT, the Magistrate, congratulated the pro secutor that he had not lost his life, and hoped it would be a caution to the prisoner how he incautiously used fire-arms 'in future, and censured the practice of allowing boys of the prisoner's age to have such weapons in their possession. He was now ordered to find bail, which was put in, and he was liberated. MARY LEB ONE. Last night a sturdy beggar, named ./chtt 117i/man, was placed at the bar before Mr. flosxm, charged by Sir Fre derick Roe with the following daring outrage : Sir Frederick stated that about six o'clock the same evening, as he was proceeding down Weymouth street, Porland-place, towards his own residence, he was accoeted by the prisoner, who in a whining tone asked for relief. He (Sir Frederick) took no notice of him for some time ; but finding that he still followed him importuning for money, he insisted on his going about his business. The prisoner then produced a knife, which he offered to dispose of. They had by this time reached the corner of Duchess street, and be (Sir Frederick) again ordered the prisoner to leave him, which, however, he refused to do, and, mut tering an oath, aimed a violent blow at his (Sir Frederick's) breast, which he fortunately warded off, and at the same time collared the prisoner, who then struck him. He, however, still retained his hold of him till a policeman came up, who took him into custody. Sir Frederick here exhi bited his coat, which was torn in the scuffle with the pri soner, who pulled on of the cuffs completely off. The prisoner, who with the greatest effrontery denied the charge, was recognized as an old offender, and com ! mitted to hard labour in the House of Correction for two months. THE LATE INCENDIARY FIRES AT RO. THERHITHE. COMMITTAL OF PALMER, THE POLICEMN. Yesterday William Palmer, the policeman, No. 108, R, was brought before Mr. BALLANTINE, at the Thames Po lice-office, for re-examination, charged " on suspicion of wil fully and maliciously setting fire to various houses and buildings in the parish of St. Mary, Rotherhithe." This was the fifth examination of the prisoner, and the office was again crowded to excess. Mr. Curling, a respectable so licitor, attended for the second time for the prosecution, and Mr. Chambers, the barrister, who has been retained on behalf of the prisoner since the commencement of the pro ceedings, again attended on his behalf. Additional evidence was gone into respecting the fire which broke out on the premises of Mr. Pitman, the barge builder, on the night of the 26th of November, where the prisoner was placed to watch. On the fire being disco vered by a Mrs. Matthews opposite, the prisoner gave no alarm. The prisoner's statement was then read. He was placed on duty on Pitman's premises about twenty minutes before twelve, and soon after twelve he saw a boat leave the wharf, and called out, " Halloo, what are you doing there ?" The man made off. Soon after that he saw Stagg, Matthews, and others, and showed them over the premises, mentioning the circumstance to them. Jenkins said it was Mr. Pitman's barge, and Stagg said it had a cabin and no rudder to it. Jenkins said there was a terrible smell of fire, on which some one said they had left the ruins above, and got the smell in their noses. They went away, and after two o'clock Mrs. Matthews gave the alarm of fire, and Stagg, Christall, and others, ,came running down. Stagg said, " Don't spring your rattle, we can see a light through a crevice in the floor." They all ran up the ladder and broke open the trap-door, and succeeded in putting the fire out. He saw a man there in his drawers, without stockings. The lighted tub, after it was put out, was thrown out of window on the ways, and the firemen grumbled very much about it. Some one fetched it up, and they talked of washing it. They all ran out then to Speck and Redman's granary, and burst the gate open, someone observing they thought they saw a light there. He stopped on Pitman'; premises until six o'clock, when he locked them up and left . them. The prisoner further stated in the document, that he was standing opposite the premises when he saw Stagg, and told him there was a light in the floor, which he had not seen before. Jenkins said it could not be, but Mrs. Matthews said, " I think it is on fire." Mr. Hartree was the first who went up the ladder. He recollected one of the firemen taking up some of the burnt trenails, and said they would do for them. Mr. BALLANTINE, addressing the prisoner, should com mit him for trial for the capital offence, and if he had any thing to say, he would hear him, but he had no occasion to say any thing unless he pleased. Prisoner—l have nothing to say now, Sir ; I will say it another time. Mr. CURLING, in justice to the prisoner, must state that one part of his statement, relating to a man having been seen in the loft with his drawers on, was correct. A man was there in that situation. Mr. Short—Yes, I did enter the loft undressed, when I heard the alarm ; I had only my drawers on. At the request of Mr. CHAMBERS, this was added to Mr. Short's deposition. Mr. BALLANTINE, in closing this inquiry respecting the fire on Mr. Pitman's premises, could not help remarking, that during the whole of the investigation, he had met with great difficulty in getting at the mass of evidence which had been gone into. The Magistrate, after some further re marks on that point, added, " I have had no assistance in that quarter where I ought to have received it. There has been great labour in getting up this mass of evidence, and but for the assistance of many gentlemen of Rother hithe, living around the places which have been burnt down, and who have given their evidence so fairly, and without any feeling of prejudice, I could not have done it." A discussion then took place as to when the investiga tions respecting the other charges already partially heard should be gone into, and Tuesday next was agreed upon. The prisoner was then removed to Horsemonger-lane Gaol, for trial at the next sessions at the Central Criminal Court, but he will be brought up again on Tuesday, when the other charges will be gone into. EXTRAORDINARY FAUX PAS. The domestic tranquillity of the respectable incumbent of an extensive parish, in the immediate vicinity of the me tropolis, has been mournfully disturbed by the discovery of a faux pas, which has thrown several highly respectable individuals, the friends of the parties, into the greatest affliction, and overwhelmed a devotedly attached husband and father. The alleged guilty parties are the Rev. Mr. ------, a young and very popular preacher, who, indepen dent of being the curate of the husband of the lady, said to be his partner in guilt, is also evening lecturer in a popu lous parish at the west-end of the town. Mrs. the lady of the Rev. Mr. , and who is the son of a wealthy, as well as highly influential city functionary ; and the singular circumstances, as well as the writer was enabled to collect them, are these : About four yoars ago the Reverend G en tleman pur chased th e li v i ng o f a large and wealthy parish, for which he paid upwards of three thousand pounds. Being at the time a single man, he went to lodge at the house of a gen tleman, whose highly accomplished daughter kept a respect able boarding-school for young ladies. He had not been there long when he married the elder sister, contrary, it is said, to the wishes of his friends, as she was without fortune. After this union, down to the present unfortunate discovery, they enjoyed the friendship and esteem of all the influential and respectable inhabitants of the parish. Nothing took place to mar or disturb the prospects and happiness of the husband, or cause the slightest suspicion of his wife, until a few days ago, when Mrs. —, from some misconduct on the part of one of the female domestics, gave her warning service. The servant nettled at this, divulged to her master the conduct which she had witnessed between her mistress and the curate. It appeared that during the ab sence of the husband from home, on a visit to some friends, his curate took up his residence at his house, and that on various occasions Mrs. had been seen by her ser vants to go into and come out of his (the curate's) bed chamber with nothing on but her night-dress. The hus band, on being made acquainted with these facts, accused his wife, and she acknowledged her misconduct, and im plored forgiveness. He sent immediately for her parents, to whom he disclosed the occurrence, and requested that they would remove her from his sight for ever. They, it is said, refused to have any thing to do with her, saying, that she deserved to die in the streets from want. He said that, basely as she had used him, he could not bear to see her engaged for h er i n t h e ne i gh b ourhood of 101 l u o" b a s cast upon the world, and she should no t want . A l o d g i ng was subsequently she at pres ent li ves.

H e placed in the hands of an influential gentle man in the parish a number of the amatory letters of the unfortunate lady—knowing, it is said, at the same time, that those which he hod sent to her in return were destroyed— with the view of showing that he was the seduced, and not the seducer. In addition to these, he went so far as to say hait' J ose ph like, when th e l a d y h a d fi rst made advances towards hi m , he turned her out of his bed-room when she came there in her night-dress, more than once. The gentle man thought favourably of the case from this, but others took a totally different view of it. The zealous, but injudicious friend, not satisfied with this, sent, it is said, a memorial to the Bishop of London, with a view of having the Rev. Gentleman restored. What the result of this most extra ordinary proceeding may be is not known. The unfortu nate lady who is the subject of the above has had two sons, p who are living, and is at pres en t, it is said, it 4 a state of preaney.,Normni 4dpertiffr, SALE OF MR. HEBER'S .LIBRARY. The twelfth day's sale on Saturday was marked by the disposal of many curious works, and at high prices.

Only four copies are known to exist of this work, all of which want the title, and are otherwise defective. This is called by Pin kerton " a most curious piece, well written, and fraught with great lear►;ing ; the only classic work in Scottish prose." Lord Hailes declared that "If the study of Scottish history should ever revive, a new edition, of Inglis's Complaint would be an acceptable present to the public." See the Preliminary Dissertation by Leyden to the edition of 1801. He conjectures that Sir David Lindsay was the author.

A mercantile house in Leeds, established about four years ago, and trading under the firm of Joshua Vollans and Sons, has recently fallen into embarrassments, with engagements amounting to 18,5001. The firm, it appears, consisted of three persons—the father, Mr. Joshua Vollans, and his two sons, David and Joshua. On the second day of the present month Mr. Joshua Vollans quitted London, %There he had been two or three weeks, for France, alleg ing that he was on his way to Manchester. As soon as it was ascertained 'that he had left the country, a fiat in bankruptcy was issued against him, and on the 6th instant the house in Leeds stopped payment. An examination into their affairs showed that large sales of woollen goods had been made, and that the sums for which they had sold had disappeared. Further inquiry showed that the pro perty which remained was not likely to realize to the cre ditors more than from 3s. to 4s. in the pound. From these suspicious circumstances a messenger under the bankruptcy was sent down from London to Leeds; and on Monday morning, Mr. James Robinson, of Camp road Mill, one of the creditors, accompanied by the messen ger, repaired to Huddersfield, having learnt from an inter cepted letter that some of the property had been conveyed. to Mr. Joseph Sanderson's, of Mold-green in that neigh bourhood, whose wife is the daughter of the senior Mr. Vollans, and of course the sister of the other partners. Un der the authority of the powers vested in the messenger, a search was instituted in Mr. Sanderson's house, when, on examining one of the drawers, a sum of money, in Bank notes, gold, and provincial notes, was found to the amount of 5,555/., along with two silver watches, and several arti cles of plate. No sooner had they reached the inn at Hud dersfield, than they learnt that a person had been sent off from Mr. Sanderson's to the senior Mr. Vollans at Leeds, on which they ordered four horses to their carriage, and posted after him, in the hope of reaching Leeds before any communication could be made of the proceedings at Mold green. In this, however, they did not succeed ; but they were the bearers of the hidden treasure, much to the gra tification of the creditors, who were anxiously waitis- ' the i r return. The recovery of so large a sum tas greatly im proved the prospects of the el'etrs, and placed in their possession assets thy* pay a dividend of from 12s. to 14s. in tin pound ; for besides the 5,555/., there is about 4,000/. worth of other property in Leeds, with goods in 'Manchester, Liverpool, and London, and several debts which will be recovered under the commission of bankruptcy which has been issued against the firm of Joshua Vollans and Sons. This unfortunate house was, it appears, in a prosperous way of business till within the last twelve months, about which time they fell into the fatal practice of making sacrifices—that is, of selling goods for less than they cost, which terminated in their ruin, and no doubt suggested the design, as far at least as one of the parties is concerned, of plundering the creditors. We have not heard under what circumstances, or with whose privity, money found in Mr. Sanderson's house was deposited there. Two letters frem Joshua Vollans to his „brother David, have fallen into the hands of the creditors. The first dated from London, on the 2d of the present month, announces the utter ruin of the house, which he attributes to the im mense sacrifices they have had to make to meet their en gagements ; together with their ignorance of book-keeping. In this letter the writer says that he has had a " serious misfortune," which no one else, under the present circum stances would believe ; but that it has put it out of his power to meet their creditors and to meet their engage ments. He then recommends that a composition should be made with the creditors. Their debts he estimates at 16,000/., and he says that there will be in all from 3s. 6d. to 4s. in the pound, " but not more." In the same letter he intimates his intention to abscond ; but says that he shall write once more to ascertain whether the composition has been accepted. He laments the situation in which his relations will be placed by the failure, and expresses his concern for the suffering creditors. The second letter is dated frem Paris on the Bth inst., and exhibits a deplorable proof of the rapid progress in the paths of dishonour and dishonesty. This letter, like the other, is to his brother David, and is writt en under the assumed name of " Beau mont," iu these terms : , t Paris, Dec. 8, 1834. " Brother,--I write for the first time from the Continent. I am well and in good spirits, and I hope that this will find all the same at home. I dare say you will think it strange that I did not write before now. I wanted to know where I intended to go. I start this day from here—go to the South of France, through Germany to Naples, and then to Rome. Me and other three have engaged a carriage, board, and lodging, all the way ; it will take us 30 days to go. We agreed to give 1,800 francs for all four, that is 721., and if I get sa f e o ff from here, and the natives should follow, they will have a hell of a chase. I hope things are going on smoothly, and like to come to accommodation soon ; but, at all events, keep up your P:* * l- rits, and keep up all the family's also. f the nativPl should come after me, send some one after me instanter, so that I can get out of their way- If they come to the Hotel de Ville, at D'Albipti a Paris, and inquire fo r M ons. B eaumont, they will give every direction where to find mq, it is No. 40, Rue St. Thomas de Louvre. Thou nlust keep up the spirits of mother and father, and all tho ; tell them I shall not starve here with moPeY Aly packets. " I like France very well, an d can yFpunder Do not write me till I have written again ai shall tell yPtl in my next when to write. If you can effect 9. 9 llr9ißlii&Vilth the natives, 'ou will Awl & good deal of rioney in London—Caldecots, G. Cooks, Co wpm, Scutt, .nd Bull. • If the natives agree then, I sill post myself back to England again. Travelling is very bad here • we were 40 hours in travelling from Calais to Paris. I left London cn ,"Tuesday evening.;, and got h ere on - F r id ay ; I was regu iarty bored. I shall leave all fi - ;r thee to do. Give my respeetS to mother and father, and all the family, and tell them lam in the land of the living. I think there is very little Terence between here and England. I have nothing more to say. The short route lam going to take is only 800 miles I shall he hack again in Paris in . February. I shall come over the Alps into Switzerland back, and then to England I bola; if not, I do not care a damn,--then to America. " Yours truly, " ALEXANDER BEAUMONT." From a letter received from Mr. Turner, the solicitor in London, who with Mr. Stott, the solicitor in Leeds, has been indefatigable in his exertions to secure t 3 - e property'. 'of the creditors, it appears th a t M r . W atson, the partner of. Mr. Robinson, of Camp-road. is in hot pursuit of Ml"' Joshua Vollans, along with Ruthven, the Bow-street o fficer —and - that he is expected to bn taken at Lyons, where Ps approach has been announced by a telegraphic communica tion from Paris, made by order of the French Governmeot at the instance of the English Government.
