THOMAS KING, Secretary. riIHERE is no class of Disorders to which Jr- cultivated Society is so subject as the NERVOUS, which invade alike the delicate female, and the robust and seemingly vigorOus . youth.—Listlessness of Miad, Impaired Strength and -Appetite, :Flatuleuce, Head-Ache, Vertigo, and Dimness, of Sight, are, more or less observable in them all. No remedy has hitherto been so generally beneficial in Nervous Disorders as . the 'Cordial" Balm of Gilead, which has now maintained its reputation for a long series o f years, and has become the stated resort of great numbers of invalids.

WHEN Science began to explore the . com plicated machinery of Man, she was speedily entangled in a labyrinth of mysterious confusion, from which intellectual perseverance alone emancipated her. Ignorance and empyricism, however, still oppose their veno mous hostility, and the prejudice of weak minds, in some measure, encourages their audacity. As Truth is to False hood—so may our public statements be compared with their unqualified pretensions, and to expose their fallacies, we have not hesitated to avow ourselves as practitioners in a class of Diseases which endanger the mystic evolutions of Nature. To be brief : we are Members of the London College of Surgeons, can establish the integrity of our Character - upon the, success of Tw en ty Years' practical experience, and announce the grateful testiniony of those' in whom long suffering had neatly extinguished every hope of relief. • We pledge ourselves to the removal of Syphilus, from its. incipient symptoms to the remotest stages, characterised by every doubt, and wha tever m alignancy. The intricate and much neglected diseases of the Urethra have been carefully and studiously considered, as have also those delicate and important sympathies which refer to the Fe male Sex. The infirmities of virility have been especially noticed, whether as arising from the debilitating tyranny of a tropical atmosphere or the natural bias of consti tution—the imprudence of gaiety —or the more alarming results of a propensity to practices " which shun the light ;" the progress of which is marked by a gradual dereliction of th e an i mal powers . T o all wh o are t h us circumstanced, an d more espec i a ll y to such as arc aspirants for connubial pleasures, we earnestly recommend our Corn mentaries, Ist, " Th e 2 E g i s o f Life," for the one Sex ; or, 2d, "'Hygeiana," , xclusively addressed to the Females; the perusal of which must prove beneficial to their moral happiness.

Francis Lodge was indicted for wilfully, maliciously, a*d unlawfully &hooting at William Peace, with intent to do biiii , bodily harm: . BIIdUGIIA.M said, that the prisoner was Isn assistant gamekeeper, iu the employment of Mr. Beaumont, of Whit ley-hall, and the ptosecutor, William Peace, was a labour ing man who resided iu the same neighbourhood. _ _ 'William Peace examined.---I live at Lepton. On the night of the 11th of November I went out with George Haigh ; Thomas' Haigh,- Thome* Stringer, John Lee, and two other ner , oits to kill eawe. Thornav f4rinp:ir carried a gun, and that was the only gun that we had with. us. We•went to the Whitley:Judi estate.' We'• agreed befi)re we set out that if the keepers attacked uS we would run away. , In about half an ,hour after we got there, we heard a dog . hark, and immediately we were surpris ed by the 'watchers. They slipped two dogs at us, part of them encouraged the dogs, and part cried out " Shoot them, shoot them." I ran amongst the bushes, with my companions, and then got into the bridle road. We ran along the road for about 200 yards. ' I was the hindmost man. - A dog kept leaping up against me, and I put my hand back in order to turn the dog off. Whilst doing so, I saw the prisoner Praneis Lodge about four yards distant from me. He had 8 gnu, which he fired at me, and wounded me in the back part ofthe right thigh. It was a melon- light night. I had frequently seen Lodge before, and knew him very well. After I was shot, I ran about 20 yards, and then fell. • As I was falling, one of the companions of the prisoner, John Hardy, came up, and struck me with a stick over the eye. Lodge came up, and said, " Stringer, we have thee now." He thought that I was Stringer. None of my companions were at that time with me. They had got a °hh 1 rae bring a v md e . )s the nothin g } lOean u et . o swordtfi c ; o the-awni wanted kd t h e to a place called the dog-kennel.

I never doubted that Lodge was the man Stringer's gun was never fired after we saw the keepers. H e did not shoot at the dogs. I saw George Armitage there. On my oath I never said to him that it was Wil liam Hallas who shot me. I know Thomas Richards, the cow-keeper at Whitley. I swear that I never said to Hellas, in Richards' presence--." Hallas, go for a doctor, and take the pistol thou shot at me with, and see if thou cannot shoot some one else." I carried no hedge- stake on the night of the 11th of November, nor did any ' of our party. Six other witnesses were examined.

The field gate is ab out a quarter went ther e ; w h en we got to the wood, we heard foot steps an d another repor t of a . gun. When we got i nto the w oo d we saw th e prosecutor and his companions ; Francis Lodge an d G e orge Armitage went t o th e ,r i ght ;" I went of a mile from Dog Kennel Shrog.. We all mere to the left. Lodge said to us—_o . s tan d , , lads, lik e men, " and, as soon as he said se, a shot was fli e d b y t h e o ther party. I s t e p pe d up to John Lee and G eorg e Haigh ; and I was going to 'seize Lee, when Haigh struck at me, and knocked me doWn with a stake. They then rushed about 20 yards forward, and fired another. gun. They then fan about 200 yards more. Whilst they were running, they kept saying, "Let's stand," and at last George Haigh said, " D-:-.' a it, lads, let's fight." Upon that they all turned round ; Haigh had a stake in.his hand, and struck with it at Lodge, the prisoner ; Lodge held up hi s gu n to keep off the stake, and the gun wa s knocked out of his hands. I heard'a gun go off at that mo ment ; I took up the hedge stake; an d h a ve it here ; th ey then ra n aga in about 100 yard s , and then Peace sat down, and Said h e was shot; when the rest bad got away, 'Nve turned to Peace, and he said to us, " D—n you, tither take me w ith you, or leave ine,•anil let any partners fetch me ;" w e first went to the k e epcf, and on ou r re t urn Peace w as c arried by Lodge an d .

Cross-examined.—l never said that Lodge was the man who shot Peace. I never told Lockwood the constable so. The persons who had been employed with the prisoner on the night in question, were then examined, and they confirmed in all respects the testimony of last witness.— They all swore positively that they had heard the prose cutor say, at the, dog-kennel, that Hellas had shot him with a pistol. Oa cross-examination, the witnesses severally more that they had never said to Lockwood, the constable, that Lodge had shot the prosecutor. Joseph Lockwood was then called by the. counsel for the prosecution, and swore that he had apprehended the prisoner, and the four witnesses, and that each had said that LOdge was the man who had shot Peace. Mr. Baron HULLOCK summed up the case. , That gross perjury had been committed by the witnesses on one Side or the other was evident, and it was for the Jury to con sider to which side it ought to be imputed, If they be lieved the witness for the prosecution, and believed that the prisoner bad fired at the prosecutor in the manner stated, then.the ert of. the ptisoner, if death . 1 44:ctisved„,1 would liitit- . 4lMinatetto murder, and" it - fitiiiifa keWeir duty to find him guilty on the present charge. But, if on the other hand, they believed the story of the witnesses for the defence, and thought that the prisoner had not discharged his gun until he had been fired at by the opposite party, or if they believed that the gun had gone off by accident, occasion ed by its being struck out of the prisoner's hands, then if death had ensued, the prisoner would not have been guilty of murder, and he must be acquitted of the charge now brought against him. The Jury after a few minutes' deliberation, returned a verdict of Guilty. Sentence of death recorded. Most of the witnesses for the prosecution were indicted at the last Wakefield session, and found guilty of being on the Whitley estate, armed with intent to kill game, on the night when that transaction ocetured. On that trial the prisoner and the other keepers were witnesses for the pro secution. Harriet Arnatage was charged with child-stealing. The prisoner is abopt thirty years of age, and a married wo man, but has not resided with her husband latterly. It was intimated, in the statement of the' Counsel for the pro secution, that her' motives in taking the child were different from those which often actuate persons who are charged with similar offences. It is believed, although it did not appear in evidence, that she wished to make use of the baby for the purpose of affiliating it upon a person in Sheffield, with whom she had some acquaintance. Mary 111‘Leod, a poor blind woman, was led into the box with the child iu her arms. She said she was the wife of George lIPLeod. They resided at Sheffield for the last two years. She was in the habit of going out to get her living. She stood near the market on the 9th January. A woman came to her, and said it was a cold day for the child, and offered to warm it; witness let her have it; she did not,hear of it again until the following Tuesday, when her child was brought; she instantly knew hitn by the cry. Mary Swendell, the wife of a bookbinder at Sheffield, saw the last witness on the 9th of January, in the market of that town, with a child upon her knee. The prisoner was talking to the blind woman. Witness had known the name and pet son of the prisoner for ten years ; she is naarried Woman. Benjamin Duffin, a shopkeeper at Sheffield, knows Mary M‘Leod very well. He saw the prisoner talking to the blind woman on the 9th January—she gave her some broth. Mr. Jackson, a surgeon at Sheffield, was sent for to at tend, the prisoner. She had a male infant on her knee when he saw her ; it was about three weeks old then (the 1441 i January ;) she said she had been confined on the pre ceding Tuesday, and that child was her's; he can state po sitively that the child was not her's. George M‘Lcod, the father of the child, swore it was his chi 154,4,114,, featlice t a. stuck -to breast-Oss ..Inte' doubt but it was the child which was stolen from his wife which he . stOr with the prisoner. . . Margaret Wallace nursed the blind-wornan'a child, and she is sure the child which was found and brought back was the child of Mary M'Leod. She saw the child in the possession of the prisoner. Witness had dressed the child the morning it was stolen ; it was pretty well dressed. The .chief constable of Sheffield called upon the pri soner respecting 'the child. The prisoner said the child was her own, and that she Was delivered of it on the Toni - day before. • The prisoner, when called upon for her defence, mad, two or three ineffectual attempts to give her own account of the, circumstance. She laboured under a great depres sion of spirits, and after some delay, stated that when she first saw the child. in the blind woman's arms, she took' compassion upon it, as well as upon the mother, to wham she gave a little broth, and took the baby for the purpose of warming it ; and when she had taken it home, she found his little knees and feet stripped of the, skin by the ebb], arid she thoUght she might as well support it. She declared th a t a t th e `time of taking the child she had no idea of d e p r iving'the father and mother of it; and if she had money enoug h to give the parents, she sever would be prosecute.l. She.said she had no friends, nor money suffi cient to retain Counsel; and she hoped, as she had no bad intention towards the child, his Lordship would have com passion on her. During his Lordship's charge to the Jury she continued crying, and when the Jury returned a verdict of " Guilty," she could with difficulty support herself against the bar. John Hodson, committed under a charge of highway robbery, when brought to the bar, pleaded guilty, alleging `as his reason his inability to employ Counsel, his money being taken from him by the constable who apprehended him. • Mr. Baron HULLOCK said it was very wrong to deprive the man of his money; he should, at least, have sufficient left him for the purposes of his defence. SATURDAY, MARCH Si. • WILSON V. SMITH. Mr. Justice BAYLEr has been engaged the whole of the day in trying a feigned issue raised in this case, to deter mine the validity or a will made by a person of the name of Flint, in the year 1823. The case was tried last spring assizes, and the particulars then detailed at length. On that occasion th e J ury f ound against the validity o f the ground th a t the testator will, on th e had been • insigne when he made it. A new trial was granted on application to the Court of King's Bench. The plaintiff's case was gone through to-day, and Mr. Brougham addressed the Jury for the defence. The further hearing of the case was then adjourned to Monday. f l o N rim sT ati G t E in Oß b G y E THE KING, AT THE RELATION Or RICHARD DUTTON, SHREWSBURY, THURSDAY, Maacn 29. office in the nature of a quo warrant°, relating to' the city This was an " i: of Chester, and was directed by ,the Court of King's Bench th il e A ll t l ß a i s s t ° er N. of the Crown.- . to be tried in the county of Salop, as the county next ad joining to Cheshire. The ple a di ngs were opened b y ,sf r . J ERVIS , Jun. The information was of Hilary Terin, 1825, and stated that Chester is an ancient city; that the Mayor and citizens are a body corporate,' by the name of thOlayor and Citi zens of the city of Chester ; that the office of Mayor is a public office, and that; George Harrison, upon the 22d of October, sth Geo. IV. (1824), used and exercised,"with-' ont legal warrant, royal grant or right, the office of Mayor, which said office he bath usurped. Plea.—That from time whereof the memory of man is not to the contrary, there have been a mayor, two sheriffs, 24 aldermen, and a common council, and that the mayor, sheriffs, and so many aldermen as choose to be present, assembled in each year, for the election of a mayor, on Friday next, after the feast of St. Denis; and since Octo ber 26, Geo. H., assembled on Friday next after the 20th of, October, and nominated two aldermen, of which two, the mayor, sheriffs, and aldermen present chose one to be mayor for the year ensuing ; and that on the 22d of Octo ber, 1824, the defendant was duly elected mayor, and was sworn before his predecessor. The replication denied the immemorial custom, or that the defendant was chosen mayor according to it, and stated, that a small number, and not the major part, of the aldermen were present when the defendant was returned mayor, by means whereof the assembly was not duly constituted ; and it also set feral a ...barter of 21 .Henry VII., granting, power to the citizens to elect 24 aldermen, and 40 common councilmen, who might elect out of themselves a mayor who should be his escheator. To this the defendant demurred, and also by his rejoi n d er averred that the citizens did not accept the, charter. T o this there was arejoinder in demurrer, and 17 issues, the issues the jury were to try.

We give the JudgCleinthinting up, aid the verdict 1 Mr. Baron Ifatetaax 'laid, •thitt — most laborious cause 1 has been admirably eccdeeted on both ludic. The material ileum arc, whether Chester is a corporation by prescrip tion, consisting of that component parts stated by the de fendant; sad whether , the charter of.Hatay Yu. has been accepted? For if the charter has been accepted, the de fendant's election is void, because a majority of aldermen were not present. It is true that it is not known that any mayor existed before Richard I. • but from th e re moteness of the period, it is impossible to obtain clear evidence on those points. It is very di stilt to say that the acts done by the Corporation do not amount to a complete acceptance of the Charter. The whole con stitution of the city •was altered by it ; they were formed into a county; had new jurisdictions, even to the le vying of fines and suffering of recoveries ; the num ber of common council is reduced from forty-eight to forty, and the sessions are held before the Mayor, Re corder and Aldermen. They also avail themselves of the charter of Elizabeth, for under it, sheriffs and mayors have been elected in the middle of the year. The resistance of the corporation to the letter of King James, excusing themselves from complying with it on account of their oath to the charter, is a very strong point. Hie Lordship was of opinion, that if the charter weee accepted in part it was accepte d in all, and he also thought that the cor poration had accepted it in regard to the election of mayors, and applied themselves to it, to regulate those elections, but mistakingly. The Counsel far the defendant desired to have the ver dict taken in the form' of the issues. Some discussion arose among the Counsel as to the form, after which Mr. Baron Vaughan minutely mentioned the material issues. I'h; Jury retired, but in less than ten minutes returned, and their foreman delivered a verdict that the corporation had accepted the charter in the point of the election of mayors. ....His Loans's/re then asked them what verdict they found on the issue, whether there had or had not been from time whereof the,inemory of man runneth not to the con trary, a mayor, two sheriffs, and 24 aldermen within the city ? The Jury, after about five minutes' further deliberation, found a verdict that there had been those officers front before the time of legal memory. MEETINGS OF CREDITORS.

The same verdict was taken on th• issues in this infor mation as in the first. The legal consequences of thefie verdicts will doubtless come under •the graveet consideration of the lawyers. The election of Mr. Harrison, as Mayor, in 1824, is by the verdict void. We apprehend that Mr. Harrison, there fore, had not the power to administer the oath of °face to the Mayor elected in 1696 (when a majority of the Alder men were present), which Mayor being sworn coran& non judice, was incapable of legally holding the office or admi nistering the oath to the present Mayor.
