SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. The proposed appointment of a Public Prosecutor at the Old Bailey, under the Criminal Court Act, is not likely to take place either with the rapidity or fa cility that were at first contemplated. The Judges, we hear, are far from being unanimous in their ap proval of it, and to the county-rate payers throughout the kingdom, it has been represented as likely to lead to heavy additional burdens upon them ; for, of course, if the project be feasible in this one instance, it is equally applicable to, and required in all, and every Assize and Quarter Sessions must expect to have such an officer, with a salary competent to be speak the necessary ability attached to it ; and at least twenty gentlemen from the Bar, with their one or two thousand a year, may calculate upon being taken from the, at present, crowded ranks of their profession. Nor ought it to be concealed, that this will not be the only expense attached to the appointment. Each officer must have his office, with one or more clerks attached, where the depo sitions may be received and prepared in the shape of a brief, and w h ere , s h ou ld there be such a thing as " an itching palm," even convenient suppressions may, in the hurry of business, by possibility take place, But let us view the other side of the question, which we readily admit has its recommendations. Those mainly consist in a greater certainty in brit% - ing home charges, and in saving the time of the Jur.lges and Juries, which Is at present often unprofita.bly occupied in fishing out the particulars of a ca, s e with which no one is ac quainted. That it may save trouble to an indolent Judge, we can imagine, as it may spare him the labour of informing himself as to the particulars of each case, a duty at present too frequently neglected, while in truth it ought rather to increase his previous dili gence and labour in this respect ; for placed as he has hitherto been considered to be, in the situation of Counsel for the accused, how much should his labours in this respect be enhanced, when he finds that the lat ter has, in all cases, not only the facts to grapple with, but the distortion, or, at any rate, forced construction which an ingenious professional prosecutor is able to clothe them with. And then as to time, if the result be, as is probable enough, that each prisoner being prosecuted by Counsel may find it the more necessary to be defended through a similar channel, those who are acquainted with the proceedings in our Courts of Justice will be able to judge how far " Counsel on both sides" are likely to effect that object. Upon the whole, then, taking for the present this cursory view of this projected arrangement, it may, perhaps, be rea sonably doubted whether any reasons sufficiently strong exist to call for a change in our criminal proceedings of so expensive and doubtful a character as this ap pears to be. At any rate, it is one which requires much previous deliberation ; and we trust that it will not be brought before Parliament in a partial, crude, and undigested state ; but that it will, with the whole of its details, be first submitted to the consideration of the Judges, and the sentiments of those learned per sons earnestly courted upon all its probable bearings. —Morning Herald. If the Whig Radical Ministerial party were not previously satisfied of the " re-action" at which they have been pleased periodically to sneer, an attentive perusal of the reports of the dinner given at Aberdeen to the Hon. Captain Gordon, on the same day that the Radicals at Glasgow gave Lord Grey's " dear Lamb ton" the feast of " Cloven feet and Durham mustard" will convince them that the fact is no longer to be con cealed. Let them simply read a faithful account of the tumultuous scramble, the drunken broils, the vul gar hootings, and the disgusting exhibitions made at the one place under the eyes—and, we may add, the nose—of one of the daughters of the Earl, the hero of the day, and contrast those and other circum stances connected with the dirty festival, with those which characterized the dinner to Captain Gordon at Aberdeen. Surrounded by the (ilk of the country, who anxiously and voluntarily rallied round the Noble Chairman (the Duke of Gordon), Captain Gordon found himself the much-desired guest of upwards of seven hundred men of honour, character, and reputation. There had been no drilling, no can vassing, no bribings, no threatenings to make it show —the dinner and the meeting were a spontaneous tri bute to high principle and consistent conduct, and a prouder day for an individual eircumstanr.:ed as the Hon. and Gallant Captain is we cannot well imagine. It is notorious that until the measure of Reform had been tried such results would not have attended the ap pearance of Captain Gordon in Alradeen —and this is the point. Estimable as Captain Gordon personally is, and deserving as lie is of the esteem and affections of all who personally know hien, we deny that the tri bute of the 20th of last month was exclusively personal. The people, who, when they were dazzled and blinded by the empty promises of a mob-serving Government into a belief that Reform meant something advantageous to the country, would at that period, in their blind ness, have driven Capanti Gordon from their streets, rather than welcome. him to their hearts and homes. See the reverse—One delusive measure has been tried, its folly, its wickedness, have been made manifest. Captain Gordon has firmly maintained his principles ; has boldly, steadily, and unflinchingly stood to his " cause ;" and conviction, reason, and common sense have combined to justify the independent conduct he has adapted, and the course he has so wisely, so ho noura!oly, and so steadily pursued. What then is this but a re-action ? Has Captain Gordon changed since the days when it was not considered safe for him to appear in Aberdeen, and when in stances of outrage occurred scarcely parallelled in• the history of elections ? Has he deviated from the straight line which he chalked out for him self ? No. Then let those who deny the re action explain why seven hundred individuals of the highest character and respectability should now rally round the man who, while the Whig Ministry were living upon promises in prospectu, and duping the people whom they have since betrayed, was treated as an enemy to liberty and popular prosperity, because he was opposed to the Government ? Contrast this dinner to Captain Gordon with that given to Lord Durham, at which the cream of the company were Mr. Oswald, the member for Glasgow, and Mr. Silk Buckingham, the itinerant lecturer at eighteen-pence a head. Or, contrast it with the dinners given to Lord Durham's " bitter foe," the Chancellor, in Aberdeen itself, at which, with all the prospect of conviviality, tumbling, and rope-dancing, not one quarter so many persons could be pressed or bribed, or even hired into the service, as thronged the tables at Captain Gordon's dinner of their own accorl We say, independently of all the gratification `we feel at the display,of personal feeling towards the, gal lant Captain and his noble family upon this oc'ea-sion, we feel, nationally and politically, the great imr4c,rtance of the meeting as a display of that " re-acticin ' which the Ministry and the Political Unions still egect to dis believe, and as an earnest of what may be expected from the noble Conservative feeling whl.cti l is manifest ing itself in every part of the empire, Aliether in Scot land, in Ireland, or in England ; and, w e repeat that if the people will only take the trouble to read the reports of the meetings in Downshire, is Kent, in Bucking hamshire, in Gloucestershire, raid at Aberdeen, they will see cause to rejoice that the mist is fast dissipating, and that the people are everywhere opening their eyes to the folly and wickedneF s of the system upon which we have been governed ever since the accession of the .Whigs to power.— Mot-ning Post It is not in England only, we find, that Lord Dur ham's speech at the Gl asgow di nner h as called fortethe commentaries of the press. The Journal des _Mats of Tuesday last contains a long article on the same speech--we were going to say w. the same sub ject : but the subject selected for observations by the French writer is as different from that which was in a manner forced upon English j i onrnalists by the gene ral feeling of the country, as i.s the p oint o f v i ew from - which h e me dit a t es the opinions and expressed wishes of Lord Durham. Here, it was the collision between the Noble Earl and another political person, and the degree of reputation or discredit thence to be reflected upon the character of each, which chiefly and natu rally engaged the public attention. Whereas the French journalist., with equal reason, frankly throws overboard all that concerns the domestic parties and affairs of Englend, as matters which concern them not, and fastens exc l us i ve l y upon t h at port i on of L or d Durham's speech which treats of the relations between, both' countries, present and prospective—those which the existing alliance has produced, and those on which his Lordship speculates as likely to grow out of it. The Journal des Debats is known to be the avowed, if not official, organ of an influential portion of the French Government. Its sentiments, therefore, carry a weight with them, which, if those of the Government itself be worth attending to, we should be foolish to overlook, and so would Lord Durham, while his Lordship la bours to enlarge upon the manifold advantages of the French alliance, and principally, if we remember right, for the sake of that commercial intercourse to which it must lead, and of the common interests and friendly , sympathies therefrom of necessity resulting. As cer tain guarantees against a future war between these na tions, it would be strange if without a definite and important object a French writer in the confidence and employment of the Ministers should endeavour strenuously to overturn the whole flattering fabric of Lord Durham's hopes, shared in as they have been by a numerous class of merchants in both countries, as to the approaching removal of com mercial obstacles hitherto raised by the prohibitory coac of France, and declare, as peremptorily as lan guage can do, that so far from extending the field of partnership, lending facilities to commerce, the con nexion between France and England is no more than political, and political it shall remain. It is all very well, says the Journal des Debats, if a commercial union were thereto superadded, but he hints that things had better remain as they are. This is in fact - a species of religion with many descriptions of French men ; they insist that England has prospered through prohibitions, not in spite of them ; and that if other countries are to prosper, it must be through the like means. There is envy, and jealousy, and gross ignorance, their handmaid, at the bottom ; but what of that ? Their Statesmen act upon such views, yielding ready credence to their frightened and unenterprising manufacturers. Buonaparte was devoured by this frenzy, for even in 1802, when he wished to display an enlightened policy, the Moniteur, in answer to the overtures of the British Government towards a commercial inter course with France, was authorized to declare that the treaty signed not low? before comprised all the favours to which England' should be admitted. Le Trait!: d' Amiens, they exclaimed—Le Traite d' Amiens. Rion que le traite d Amiens ! So at this moment it is repeated Rien que l' Alliance Politiquc. Formerly the spirit of military rancour and thirst for vengeance upon England fanned and inflamed the antipathies of manufacturing rivalship, which the later growth of political friendship, though unques tionable, has not been able to supersede. It is true that the great body of growers in France, much the larger portion of the consumers, and a very consider able majority of the mercantile interest, join in an earnest desire to shake off the trammels upon exporta tion, upon consumption, and on commerce generally.; nor do we doubt that finally their powerful voice, reinforced by the hourly lessons of common sense and experience, will prevail over the monopolists in manufacture and fuel, and over the more elaborate and conceited crotchets of certain members of the Bu reaucratic of France. But in the meantime Lord Dur ham's rational wishes for free trade are sneered at, as having no better motive than a sordid eagerness to sell the produce of his collieries ! Nor is it the small and feeble attempt at reasoning, visible throughout this curious article, that strikes us so much, as the spirit of scarcely suppressed bitterness which it breathes, as if there were really, though not ostensibly, something to resent in the mere proposition of a commercial treaty. We are no more insensible than they of whom the Journal des Debats is the organ, to the essential bene fits of a political union between Great Britain and France, for the repression of tyranny, the protection of liberty, and the maintenance of general peace through out Europe, so long as France shall act faithfully a'4d cordially in the spirit of such a policy, and in the execution of such engagements. There is no dis position on our part to question the integrity or good faith of France ; but since she has herself talain care to announce that the subject matter of her connexion with England shall not spread beyond the sphere of objects purely political, and shall exclude all provisions for the improvement and well-being of the indus trious classes of both nations, so we are entitled to re commend that the British Government, strictly adher ing to all compacts, expressed or implied, which those with whom his Majesty has made them continue to preserve inviolate, may, nevertheless, keep a watchful eye upon our cold and distrustful neighbour, and not suffer the period of our national engagements to be ex tended one hour beyond the first certain evidence of duplicity. England can take her own part, and loses more by confidence misplaced than she could ever gain by a precarious and hollow co.•operation._* * * Since these remarks were written, we have learned from our Paris correspondent, whose express we publish in a preceding column, that M. Thiers is understood to be the author of the article.— Times. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, Nov. 6. TONER V. THOMPSON. Sir EDWARD SUGDEN stated that in this cause the ordi nary decree was made for administering the assets of an intestate, John Thompson, who died in 1829. The intes tate left his mother, Mrs. Thompson, an old lady of 82, who took out administration, and several sisters surviving him. The plaintiffs were one of the sisters and her hus band. In taking the accounts in the Master's office very extraordinary circumstances occurred. The Master made an elaborate special report, from which it appeared that se veral folios had been frarAdulently abstracted out of the intes tate's books produced by the administratrix, and erasures made in them ; thrt large sums of money had been also re ceived by lier, prior to an answer in which she had omitted these s:4ms, and sworn she had received no more than she then, accounted for, and that several books and papers were produced under like circumstances. The plaintiffs thought It necessary to employ an accountant to investigate the ac counts, through whose services it was alleged the fra u d s were discovered. The object of the present pettion was to bring these matters before the Court, ai.la to obtain a re ceiver, and liberty to examine t; ,e other defend an t s viva voce, and for payment of e:oney into Court. All these portions of the petition werzi conceded. The question was, whether in the present stage the administratrix and her daughter Ann, who was mainly charged with the frauds, should pay the costs of the accountant and the costs in cidental to the petition, which must be very heavy. Mr, KNIGHT, for the defendants, insisted that there was no r.ecessity for this heavy and burdensome petition, since the, greater part of its prayer was offered long since by the defendants ; and as to the costs, if the plaintiffs were en titled to them, they would have them at the proper time, on further directions. The VICE-CHANCELLOR said the costs of the accountant stood in a different situation from the other costs which were sought. An accountant was not generally allowed. But as the necessity for his assistance was occasioned by the mother trusting her daughter, who had shown herself so unworthy of confidence, it was not unreasonable that she and her daughter should pay the expense. The costs of the petition, however, must be costs in the cause ; and as to the proceedings before the Master they would be con sidered when the cause was heard hereafter. , ROLLS COURT —Nov. G. MICKLAM V. ROGERS. Mr. BICKERSTETH, who appeared on behalf of the plain tiff, proceeded to state the facts of the which were as follows :—.The bill was filed by tin pritinte James Mick lam, who was a tailor, a.,;(t . inst Mr. Edward Rogers, the l'.;gal personal rePre'Lntative of his deceased brother, Mr. Henry Rogers, - And it prayed that an account might be taken of alp the monies due to the plaintiff and to the other eredit;os of the late Mr. Henry Rogers, and that the assets ;fight be applied in due course of administration. In ada dition to this, the bill alleged that the deceased Henry Rogus, granted, in July, 1823, an annuity of 241. to the plaintiff, in consideration of a sum of 2001., paid by the plaintiff to the said Henry Rogers. Mr. Edward Rogers, the legal representative of his late brother, had put in his answer, which admitted the granting of such annuity, but alleged that the consideration was not 2001. in money, but had been paid partly in m oney an d partly i n goods, wie, and other articles. This allegation, if supported by evi dence, would go far to invalidate the annuity, but at first no such evidence was produced, for it was not until after en largement of publication which the defendant obtained that a Mr. Ragg was examined. This person's evidence differed totally from the allegation in the answer, and consequently he submitted that it could not be received. Air. PEMBERTON, on behalf of the defendant, submitted that the annuity could not be supported, strictly speaking, for it had not been enrolled according to the express provi sion of the Act of Parliament affecting annuities. After a short conversation between the Learned Gentle men, and with the consent of his Honour the Master of the THE SUN, LONDON, FRI Rolls, the following reference was directed :—" Whether the Mte Mr. Rogers was indebted in any simple contract debts to the plaintiff, and under what circumstances, and for what consideration, the annuity was granted, with liberty for the Master to state special circumstances." COURT OF KING'S BENCH. ROGERS V. BRIGSTOCK, AND ANOTHER. Sir JAMES SCARLETT stated that this was an action brought by an attorney at Carmarthen, for a libel published on him by the defendants in a paper called the Weidman, of which they were the printers and publishers. The case was tried at the sittings after the last Term, when a verdict was given for the defendants. The plaintiff was the Town Clerk of Carmarthen, and had been called upon to give in formation respecting that Corporation. The libel referred to the statement he had made before the Corporation Com mission, and charged him with having spoken falsely, as be was not upon his oath. The mode of defence adopted at the trial was an aggravation of the injury which the plaintiff had suffered. Lord DENMAN said that the lines were an extravagant piece of absurdity, and that no doubt the Jury bad consi dered the explanation of them by the defendant's Council sufficient. Besides, there had been an explanation given, and perhaps the Jury thought that explanation sufficient. Sir J. SCARLETT remarked that indeed there was more malice than went in the lines. Mr. Justice TAUNTON said that the Jury had expressed an opinion that the lines were not libellous, and the Court could not disturb the verdict.—Rule refused. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS—Nov. 6. (Sittings in Banco.) REXFORD V. PORTER AND WIFE. Mr. Sergeant WILDE stated that this was a case tried at the last sittings at Guildhall before his Lordship to recover a sum of money for instruction in music and dancing af forded to the defendant, Mrs. Porter, by the plaintiff, who kept a ladies' school. The circumstances out of which the action arose were these :—The mother of Mrs. Porter having been left a widow (her husband dying in India with two or three daughters) she placed them at school with the plaintiff. The young ladies contemplating going to India, became desirous of learning music and drawing, and the eldest accordingly applied to her mother to have her taught. Her mother, who had again married, communicated with the plaintiff on the subject, telling her that the sum she was al lowed by her late husband's executors for the education of her daughters just sufficed for their board and ordinary education at het school, but not to learn the accomplish mentlof drawing and music, but that if she would wait for payment till her daughter was entitled to her property, which, under her father's will, would be when she attained the age of twenty-one, or was married, she herself would then pay her. Mrs. Rexford assented to this proposal, and the eldest sister was taught. music and drawing, for which she had since very honourably paid. Her sister Harriet, the present defendant, seeing the arrangement her .sister Lad made, applied to her mother to make a similar one for her, and it was made accordingly. The young lady after wards eloped from the boarding school with the present defendant, who married her and received her property. The present action was brought against them both to re cover compensation for the instruction in music and drawing she had received.—Rule granted. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Nov. 6. ( Sittings in Banco.) THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. CLEAVE. This was an action upon the c. 78, against the defendant, for publishing the Weekly Police Gazette without a stamp, and without filing the affidavits required by the Act. It was tried before Lord Lyndhurst at the sittings after last term, and a verdict found in these terms :—" We find the defendant guilty of publishing a work serving the purpose of a newspaper." Mr. Serjcant TALrounn now moved for a rule to show cause why the verdict should not be set aside, as against the weight of evidence, and a new trial had. He contended that the publication in question did not come within the meaning of the Act, which referred to political publications. The prohibitory words of the Act referred to " any news paper or other paper containing public news or intelligence, or servinr , the purpose of a newspaper." The question then was whether the Weekly Police Gazette served the purpose of a newspaper ? It was not sufficient that it served some of the purposes of a newspaper. It. must answer the de scription and serve the purpose generally of a newspaper. Some persons read a newspaper, like a certain character in the Critic, solely for the sake of the criticisms on the drama ; some for its fashionable intelligence ; others for the police and law reports ; and others again exclusively on account of the political news and disquisitions. The Tatter and the Spectator answered some of these purposes ; but no one ever thought of calling them newspapers. The publi cation must suit all tastes to come within the meaning of this Act, which was directed solely against seditious publi cations.—Rule refused. PREROGATIVE COURT, Nov. 6. The first Michaelmas Session of this Court was held yes terday. The business transacted, however, was, with little exception, quite formal. IN THE GOODS OF SIR ROBERT WILMOT, DECEASED. The testator in this case appointed five executors—Lord Kenmore, his three sons, and Charles Benbow, Esq., with a condition that in the event of any of the persons named omitting to prove under the will within three calendar months from the date of his death the appointment, as re garded such persons should he void. The testator died on the 23d of July last, and early in October one of the sons, John Eardly Wilmot, together with Charles Benbow, took out administration without prejudice to the rights of such others of their co-nominees as might prove within the sti pulated period. It appeared that another of the sons, Charles Foley Wilmot, was absent from England during the greater portion of the month of October upon business relating to the testator's estate, and in consequence was unable to offer himself to the proper officer, with a view to his proving under the will, until the 23d of October, being exactly three calendar months from the date of his father's decease. Upon, however, his presenting himself for the purpose the officer declined receiving him, alleging as his reason that the stipulated time had expired. Sir JOHN DODSON now applied to the Court on his be half, and urged strongly that the day of the death should not be included in the period named by the will. Sir HERBERT JENNER thought the rule laid down in a somewhat similar case by the late Master of the Rolls would be the best precedent he could select for disposing of the application. According to that rule, the collateral circum stance of the particular case should be considered, and if a favourable construction could be put upon them, the appli cation on it to be granted. He should make an order, ad mitting the applicant to prove under the will as if he had done so within the stipulated time. As the point was one which required the discretion of the Court, the officer, he thought, was quite right in refusing the original application. BANKRUPTCY COURT, Nov. 6. (Before Mr. Commissioner WILLIAMS.) PATRICK PHILLIPS' BANKRUPTCY. The bankrupt in this case wasa dealer in oysters in Old Hungerford Market, against whom a commission of bank ruptcy was issued in 1794. Today was appointed for a meeting of the creditors, for the purpose of going into an audit of the accounts, when Mr. Brooksbank, the solicitor to the commission, informed the Commissioner that, in con sequence of documents attested by the British Consul in America, and other papers, received only a few days since, a most important change would be made in the distribution of the residue of the bankrupt's property, which was consi derable, owing to accumulation, a heir-at-law having been discovered in the person of the son of the bankrupt, who had fled to America about forty years ago, and died there an uncertificated bankrupt. The following are the extraordinary circumstances re lating to this bankruptcy, the material facts as regards the existence of a son having only just transpired, though every inquiry to ascertain a heir-at-law have been previously made, when a claim was put in by a party, and his interest was all but acknowledged, under a decree of the proper tribunal. Patrick Phillips, together with another person of his calling, stiecueded in obtaining a part prize of 20,0001. in the lottery. Phillips invested the chief portion of his share in houses, but became involved, and mortgaged his houses, and was afterwards declared a bankrupt in 1794, he flying to America to avoid his creditors. The estate was much wasted, but owing to improvements at the west end of the town, Mid by aocutintlations, the assignees were enabled to make progress in clearing off the debts. The commission of bankruptcy slumbered on until the New Court of Bank ruptcy was established, when Mr. Clark, the official assi,r nn, was appointed to go into the case, the result of which was most satisfactory to the creditors. The creditor's as signees had received the rents of the bankrupt's estate, by which the mortgages, &c., were paid off, leaving an estate off` between 49V1 and 500/. for the heir at law. The creditors have teed paid twenty shillings in the po,lnd, an d th ose w h ose securities bore interest upon nterest from the date of the fac2. of them, have receivea.: —ounting to double the commission, in some instances ditors the principal. The simple -contract ez an claimed interest, but the alleged heir at l aw - obta2 d . ~ order of Court restraining the payment of such interest. The publicity given to these proceedings, it is believed, first gave information to the son of the deceased bankrupt that so valuable a property was awaiting the decree of the Court to go to the advantage of another party. In 1826, when it was known that the estate would prove so rich, measures . • AY, NOVEMBER 7, 1834. were taken to discover if the bankrupt had left any son, or other representative, in America, his wife having died about the time he left England, but the assignees did not receive any intelligence leading to the opinion that the bankrupt had married again, and the claim set up here by an alleged heir at law was considered valid. On the proceedings under the commission being renewed yesterday for the audit, Mr. Brooksbank informed the Commissioners that information had just been received of the second marriage of Patrick Phillips, the issue of which was a son, who became of age on the 11th of May last. Witnesses were alive to speak to the birth of the child, and the certificate of the marriage was produced to the Commissioners. The son, who is in Virginia, had been told that his interests would be protected, but the fact of the existence of the son was kept secret. Abundant evidence had arrived from America, counter signed by the British Ambassador in the United States, setting the question of the heir at law to the property be yond doubt. The badge of Patrick Phillips (who was a Freemason) had remained in the possession of the son, stating the deceased's name and the number of the lodge to which he belonged. The reason why the son had not sent over a power was, that by the law of the United States he could not perform that act till he became of age. The proofs now were full, and it would be his (Mr. Brooks bank's) duty to apply to the Master to review his report. The Commissioners concurred in the adoption of this course. The son will come into possession of freehold property worth 4001. to 5001. a year, and between 500/. and 600/. now in the hands of the Accountant-General. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. A poor Irishman named APCarthy, appeared before the LORD MAYOR, for the purpose of claiming a reprobate son, who was imprisoned in the Giltspur-street Compter, for a few weeks by order of his Lordship, for having counselled and assisted a diminutive imp, named Paradise, to enter a house, by forcing himself between the bars of one of the windows. Paradise had plundered the place into which he had forced his body, and put the " swag" into the hands of young M'Carthy, who, like a dishonourable thief, refused to make fair division of the spoil, and there was of course no tie upon the former to induce him to claim the whole credit of the transaction to himself. Young M'Carthy, who is about eleven years old, was found smoking his pipe in Kent-street, and upon being apprehended he candidly admitted that he knew something of the " crack," but he vowed that he had no more than one man's share. The LORD MAvon—Well, Mr. M'Carthy, this son of your's is a very bad boy. Old M'Carthy, who is the child of simplicity, replied— Oh, then, God knows he never lamed it at home wid me. It's I that's in trouble about him and his brother. I've got four of cm, without e'er a mother ; and two of em's younger nor this poor boy, that's a disgrace to us. Will your Honour listen to me for a minute ? I won't keep you long. The LORD MAYOR—lndeed I will. M'Carthy—Oh, then, the Lord bless you ; you deserve the name you've got ; you won't let the poor be kicked to death without hearing 'em. Well, I went over to my own country with the four of 'em about a year ago, but this boy and the eldest wouldn't stay, but over they walks back again here. Well, what was Ito do but folly 'em, sure enough, for I knew how easy it was to get to the gallows. So, when I arrives in London, the first thing I heard was that the eldest was transported, and here I am now along side of the other, and the Lord knows what going to be done to him ; and an't I to be pitied? The LORD MAYOR—What could have made them such profligate fellows ? M'Carthy—There's only one that knows, your Honour, and he's able to turn their hearts. I'm sure I've often gone to bed without eating a morsel all day, and it's well to be able to lie down with a hungry belly, and not hear men after me to say that I filled it with what belonged to other people. The LORD MAYOR—And where do you live, my poor fellow ? M'Carthy—Over in Tooley-street, at Dinnis Donovan's. The LORD MAYOR—What is Mr. Donovan? M'Carthy —Please your Honour, every one knows Dinnis, blind Dinnis—the poor fellow that goes out with the bag-pipes. He keeps a lodging-house up the court. If you go there any time and ax for Dinnis, you sure to find him, if he an't out ; as for me, I'd know him a mile off, though he's as blind as a milestone. The LORD MAYOR—I have no doubt that you are an honest poor fellow, and I wish you were more comfortable. M'Carthy—God bless your honour ; poor Dinnis makes us as comfortable as he can. He's as good as a doctor to some sick people, in partickler if they's got what's called a strangurry.. I've known him cure a passage with one squeak of his pipes. Now, if you let my boy go, maybe I could get Dinnis to learn him the bagpipes, and they say there's many a doctor that knows no more about physic than he knows about playing the pipes. The LORD M AYOR—You may take him with you, my poor fellow ; and do you hear me, boy. If you follow the example of your poor honest industrious father, you will do well in life; but if you do not, you will leave it in all proba bility with a rope round your neck. His Lordship then asked Paradise, who appears to be about eight years of age, whether he was better than when he was taken to prison ?—Paradise, who had been kept in solitary confinement, said that lie never liked any thing so badly as the matter of having nobody to speak to but him self, and he never would go into any strange house again through the bars of the window. The LORD MAYOR—How did you manage to get your body between the bars ; they are not nine inches apart? Paradise—Why, they told me I was able to get in any where, and that I was the only man as was able to rob them stores. So I puts my body in, and in I goes. Mr. HOBLER—If you try it again, you may be found squeezed to death between the rails. Paradise—Yes, Sir, that's just what I said, and you know that would be as bad as the tother sort of squeeze. The LORD MAYOR delivered this boy to his mother, after having expressed his deep regret that there was no place of refuge to which he could send either of the wretched children. A young woman named Ann Goodwin, who had been for some time a servant in the family of a gentleman in the city, was brought to the police-room in order to be re moved by an order from the parish in which her master lived to that upon which she had a claim. She seemed to be in the deepest affliction, and had a band tied round her eyes. The LORD MAYOR asked her whether she had not met with any accident. A female friend of the poor girl's said (for she was her self unable to speak), that a dreadful accident had a few days ago occurred, by which the unfortunate creature had for ever lost her sight. A blunderbuss was in play dis charged close to her face by a boy, and her eyes were in an instant totally destroyed. Her master, Mr. Black more , Gould-square, had acted with great kindness and humanity to her, and was willing to do anything in his power for her service, but she was quite inconsolable, and day and night bewailed her irreparahle loss. The LORD MAYOR said that it would be anything but humane to send such an object of compassion to be a de pendant upon parochial bounty, especially under the cir cumstances of the present day. He had, he believed, some interest at the excellent institution for the indigent blind, and he should exert all he could command to obtain for the poor creature before him admission there on the next day of election. Mr. Blackmore declared that the scene which took place upon the occasion of the loss of the girl's eyes was of the most heart-rending description. She was an exceedingly in dustrious servant, and was much beloved in his family, and he, of course, would, to the utmost of his power, aid his Lordship's exertions in her service. The LORD MAYOR had no doubt of the powerful as sistance of the newspapers, which, by the simple statement of what had taken place upon the application for the order of removal, would obtain for the unhappy candidate a nu merous body of voters into the institution. The girl's friend stated that the medical gentlemen who attended her were of opinion that the pains which she suf fered all over the head since the horrible accident, would never be likely to abate until both balls were taken out of their sockets. WORSHIP-STREET. Yesterday Reubin Martin Gadd, but more generally known by the name of Reuben Martin, the pugilist, and the proprietor of a house called the Boot Tavern, in Milton-street, Chiswell-street, St. Luke's, was placed at the bar before Mr. GROVE, the presiding Magistrate with w. Dunkley, a man well known to the police, by the singular name of Bony the body-snatcher, on a charge of stealing a coat. Mr. GROVE ordered him to be remanded until next Wednesday. HA TTON- GARDEN. Yesterday the coachman and groom of Frederick Pol lock, Esq., M.P., were engaged at the stables at the back of their master's premises, Queen-square House, Guilford street, Russell-square. After they had arranged the place the groom quitted it, leaving the coachman. Shortly after wards an impudent fellow, who had watched the groom from the stables, entered the stable in haste, and told the coach man that the groom had requested him to call for two valuable saddles that were hanging up in the stable. The coachman, unsuspectingly, handed them over to him, and he left as fast as he possibly could, and escaped with the -rty. On the return of the groom, and being informed prop•._ - ,stance, he instantly concluded that a robbery of the circa,.. `-d. and information was immediately had been eommit.,_ 1 7, G division, with a full de given to. Sergeant Palmer, 4 -+erday succeeded in ap scription of his'person ; arc f l . . prehending the fellow, who was identified by the coachthan as being the same person who received the property ; which, not being traced, the prisoner was ordered by the Magistrates to be detained until proper inquiries could be made to discover it. Q UEEN- SQ UA RE. A genteel-looking youth, who gave his name William Brown, was committed on the charge of picking the pocket of Edward Yardley, Esq., of No. 43, Bloomsbury square, of a silk pocket handkerchief in the Court of King's Bench. UNION-HALL. A lengthened examination of two men took place, who were charged on suspicion with having been concerned in stealing a box containing nearly 2001. worth of watches, the property of a Mr. Mercer. The accused parties were remanded. FIRE AT ROTHERHITHE, (FURTHER PARTICULARS.) A fire occurred yesterday morning in Rotherhithe, which terminated in the destruction of the Europa Inn, twelve houses, principally inhabited by poor families, and the loss of three lives, two of them perishing in the flames. It ap pears that the fire broke out in the apartments of a young man of drunken habits, named Scales, in Church-street, near the entrance of Deptford -road. Scales resided in one of his father's tenements, a double house, in Church-street, the upper part of which was let out to poor persons, while the lower part was divided into two shops, one occupied by Mr. Peason, a tobacconist, and the other by Scales, who was a baker's peel maker, and also assisted his father in his business of a broker and appraiser. Young Scales up turned home on Wednesday night, shortly before twelve o'clock, in a state of intoxication, having been removed from the Bell public-house not long before. An hour af terwards that part of the building which he occupied was discovered to be on fire, and the flames were seen issuing from his apartment. Directly afterwards the lodgers pre sented themselves at the windows, screaming loudly for assistance ; two or three flung their beds out and jumped after them ; some were caught by the few bystanders who had assembled, and others escaped by dropping from the windows at the back of the houses. In less than two minutes the two houses, composed almost entirely of lath, and plaster, were on fire from top to bottom, and the flames spread with such fearful rapidity, added by a 'strong south-west wind, that before the inmates of the adjoining house, occupied by an old man named Fox, a shoemaker, and several poor families, were at all aware of the impending calamity, it was also on fire. Poor Fox and his wife were aroused by a volume of flame entering the room in which they slept. The woman rushed to the window and was seen enveloped in fire and calling for help, which no one could afford, and she threw herself out from the window of the second story (one of her hands having been previously nearly consumed), into the street, and broke. one of her thighs, besides receiving other severe contusions. Her un fortunate husband, it is supposed, endeavoured to save some of his property, and after the front of the house had been consumed, he was seen in the midst of the destructive ele ment on the staircase imploring aid, and directly afterwards he fell into the midst of the burning materials and perished. Young Scales, who endeavoured to rush through the passage of the house, but was driven back by the flames, was also burnt to death. The three houses in Church-street were speedily destroyed, and before the parish engines had arrived, the flames had communicated to the backs of some of the houses in a long and narrow street, which divides the Europa Inn and livery-stables from the dwelling occupied by Fox and his wife, called Clark's-orchard. All the houses in Clark's-orchard are inhabited by individuals of the poorest class, and as many as six families lived in some of them. The terror and alarm of the poor creatures when the fire reached the dwellings was extreme ; many snatched up what they could in the hurry of the moment, and were obliged to escape from their blazing tenements with nothing on but their night clothes. Parents were seen in all direc tions seeking their children, who had been lost in the con fusion, and the despair of many was really dreadful. Before a drop of water could be brought to bear on the flames four houses on one side of Clark's orchard had been burnt, and the fire had communicated to the houses on the oppo site side, abutting on the back of the Europa Tavern, the destruction of which now seemed inevitable, and Mrs. Wil mott, the landlady, commenced removing her furniture to a place of safety. The firemen now exerted themselves to the utmost, but the supply of water was very scanty, and four houses on the east side of Clark's-orchard,' formed only of lath and plaster shared the fate of the others. The firemen arrested the progress of the flames in Clark's-orchard, at the ho use of a chimney sweeper, which was partially consumed. There is no doubt, if the flames had proceeded much further, the whole street, which is about 100 yards in length, would have come down. About half-past two o'clock the Europa Inn, which had lately undergone extensive alterations and repairs, was on fire, and in less than an hour was totally de stroyed. Efforts were made to save the long range of livery stables and sheds in the rear, which fortunately succeeded. During the conflagration the atmosphere was illuminated to a considerable distance ; every object was distinctly seen as far as Greenwich, and the rigging and masts of the ship ping in the river could be traced. The fire was entirely subdued by half-past 3 o'clock. and at that time nothing appeared of the Europa Inn, and the twelve houses in Church-street and Clark's orchard but a heap of ruins, and a few stacks of chimnies which remained standing. It is supposed that the total destruction of property will amount at least to 6,000/. The owners of the houses are insured, and we believe Mrs. Wilmott, the landlady of the Europa, is partially so. The situation of many of the poor families bereft of home and furniture, is most distressing. One poor woman, who was far advanced in pregnancy, was so over come by fright, that she gave premature birth to a still born child, and her life is despaired of. At 7 o'clock yesterday morning the mutilated remains of the old man Fox were dug out of the ruins, so dreadfully burnt that they could be scarcely recognized, The re mains of Scales were also found reduced to a cinder. Mrs. Fox was after some hours removed to one of the Borough Hospitals, where she lingered a few hours, when death put an end to her sufferings. The activity of the firemen and police was beyond all praise, but their exertions were almost ineffectual, from the very scanty supply of water, as is always the case in Ro therhithe. There are no fire-plugs in the neighbourhood, and all the water that could be made available was obtained from some ditches which empty themselves into the river Thames. At low water (and the tide was ebbing on Wed nesday night) they are almost dry. This may in some measure account for the long and uninterrupted career of the flames before an engine could be brought to bear on them. DISTRESSING AND FATAL ACCIDENT AT MM OR-GENERAL SIR GREGORY WAY'S.—Wednesday after noon, between three and four o'clock, the family of Sir Gre gory Way, No. 1, Cumberland -terrace, Regent's-park, were thrown into a state of alarm, in consequence of the following melancholy accident occurring :—A fine young man, named William Mead, of No. 5, Harrow -street, Lisson-grove, who was a painter by trade, was engaged at the above hour clean ing the second floor window of Sir Gregory's residence, when he was suddenly precipitated to the ground, owing to the pins of the machine used by painters not being properly fastened inside the window. On an alarm being given, Sir Gregory ordered his servants to pay every attention to the unfortunate man, and lost no time in procuring him surgical assistance.— All human aid was, however, unavailing; for on examination, Mead was found to be quite dead, having sustained a com pound fracture of the thigh, besides breaking his arm and seve ral of his ribs. IMPROVEMENTS ON THE RUINS OF THE CATHE DRAL OF ST. ANDREW'S.-Thanks to the liberality of the Ho nourable Board of Woods and Forests, and to the attention of Mr. Reid, the King's architect for Scotland, some seasonable improvements have recently been ordered in respect of the ruins of the ancient cathedral of St. Andrew's. Workmen, under the skilful superintendence of Mr. John Kennedy, of this city, are at present employed in this praiseworthy work.— We trust that the Honourable Board will also be pleased to order the wall at Dennis Work to be rebuilt, as a preservation against the encroachment of the sea at that spot.—Fife Herald. THE RECTORSHIP OF THE UNIVERSITY.--A keen canvas is going on in our Alma Mater. The Earl of Durham is opposed to Lord Stanley—the high-minded patriot to the thimble-rig statesman—the honest friend of justice and of the rights of the people, to the apologist of abuses and th e defender of exclusive privileges. Can there be a doubt of the result ? Certainly not, if our college youth have imbib e d one spark of the flame of Grecian or of Roman liberty, which illu minates the bright page of those classics with whose thoughts they ought to be familiar.—Scots Times. PEG-TOP.—I never see a group of urchins play ing at peg-top, without being reminded of the days when, a joyous hearted school-boy, I found delight in this game. I well remember one boy, who had a top of awful size, weight, and length of peg. I never saw such a plaything before or since. It was made of hard box-wood, and was as smooth at the sum mit as an egg ; there was no ornament about it, but it had a spike or peg as long as the beak of a h eron, and as sharp as an awl. Woe to the tops, which refusing to spin, were laid in the ma gic circle to be pecked at by the others, if this huge thing was performing !' part in the game. The giant, to be sure, some times got within the ring himself; but the other tops bounded from his hard polished sides without injuring him, and he al ways came out unhurt. But when the contrary was the case, the boys used to tremble as the string was wound around the monster ; then they held their breaths ; the spinner raised his arm, and, like the swoop of a bird of prey, down came the huge top, splitting in halves the unfortunate upon which it alighted, and dancing a b ou t on it s l ong s pik e , as if.i n t r i um ph. This leviathan, one morning, after splitting half a score of tops, suddenly refused to spin, and flew into the pond, from which it was never recovered, to the very great joy of all the boys ex cept the owner.-- The Parterre. ------....----4.------------•---, BRUSSELS AND GERMAN PAPP°. the' ` BRUSSELS, Nov. 2.—M.
