GERMAN PAPERS. FRIBURG (IN SWITZERLAND), OCT. I.—Though the probability of hostilities of any kind has long since been dispelled, many of the agents of foreign powers, sent to ob serve the course of events, still nmain in our neighbour. hood. Two of our journals, which, from their popular style, were great favourites with the people, have ceased to appear ; one for reasons which were not known—the other on account of the death of its editor, Professor Zim. rnermann, who thereby luckily escaped the personal hn. prisonment nhich he had been sentenced, for some offs-nce against the regulations of the press. Our vintage began sam e days ago, as was to be foreseen; the wine is below mediocrity, and is already sold verycheap.— Frank. fort Papers, Oct. 6. CARLSRIME, SEPT. 27.—1 n the sitting of the Second Chamber to-day, M. Van Rolleck presented the report of the majority, and M. Gerbel that of the minority, of the committee, relative to the emancipation of the Jews, The majority proposed to pass to the order of the thy on the petitions that had been received, and merely to express a wish that this emancipation might be obtained in the manner announced in the resolutions of the Chamber in 1831, though hitherto declined by the Jews themselves. The minority, on the contrary, proposed to refer the pe titions to the Ministers, in order to prepare, in a suitable manner, a law for the emancipation of the Jews, such as ;policy and justice command. This proposal was rejected thy the Chamber, which adopted that of the majority of the Commission. NUREMBERG, OCT. s.—No doubt can be entertained that important Ministerial conferences are on the eve of being held at Vienna, and that the affairs of the German Confederative will he the principal subject of discussion. It is said that England and France will take part in the deliberations ; and this is the more probable, as the nego tiations which were formerly carried on at Vienna may require modification. At the sayne time, all these pro ceeding,' will be enveloped in profound secrecy. The Necolar Gazette 'airs, " We learn from Vienna, that, at the Congress at Munchengratz, the Emperor of Russia submitted to the consideration of his allies a plan for the re-organization of Poland, which cannot fail to produce remonstrances from the Cabinet of England, and probably from that of France." VIENNA, Ocr. 1. Five per Cent. Metalliques, 93 16 ; Four per Cent.. AN-I • 1 1 1.nl, In. We are sorry to learn that IVliss O'Keefe, daughter of the celebrated dramatist of that name, has been reduced to great difficulties by the stoppage of her late father's pension, and is now about to publish a volume of his MS. poems, as her only resource, the new Dramatic Bill affording her ni claim on the score of theatrical pro ductions. THE WILL OF THE LATE SIR HARRY GOODRICKE, BART.—The will of the late Sir Harry Goodricke, Bart., has been lodged in Doctor's Commons,and the personal property al ne within the province of Cin terhury, sworn under 300,0001 ; but this amount does tot, of course, include the Irish estates, which are esti mated at 60,0001. more. Mr. Holyoake, the residuary legatee, a personal friend of the deceased, becomes possessed by this will of upwards of 200,0001., in addition to the landed property, which is very considerable; and as this gentleman was not a relative in blood to the deceased baronet, the revenue will receive a considerable addition, the legacy duty being 10 per cen►. upon the amount, in ad lition to the probate duty al.eady paid. SUICIDE OF MR. HODGSON AT PARIS.— IIA3IBLING.—We !egret to announce the melancholy death of Mr. Hodgson, formerly of (we believe) the 14th Light Dragoons. He had been staying for some time at Meu rice's Hotel ; and, on Sunday evening, went to the salon in the Rue Richelieu, where he not only lost all the money he possessed, but also upwards of 10,000 f. in addi ti,,n, which he borrowed on notes of hand payable on Tuesday (yesterday). A friend had prevailed on him to leave Paris on Monday, and had even brought a carriage to the doer of the hotel for that purpose, at a very early hour on that morning. Mr. Hodgson made some excuse to leave his friend for a moment, and returning to his apartment, blew his brains out with a pistol.—French Paper. DOVER DIGNITARIES.—At the last meet ing of the commissioners of pavement a rather curious scene took place. A corporation magistrate and candidate for the mayoralty, indulged is some remarks, which called forth a rejoinder i❑ a similar strain from same of the party. A stormy debate ensued, and the chairman was at last overpowered amid the wordy strife. After the business was over, the worthy magistrate politely informed his antagonists that if they bad applied such language to him out of door, he should have " thumped their beads" for them. What an august body are the self-elect of cor porations !—Kent Herald. HOUSE AND WINDOW TAXES.—Last night a very numerous and re.pectable meeting of the P rishioners of the out-ward of St. George, Westminster, was held at the Belgrave lintel, Pimlico, frr the purpose of forming an association to obtain the repeal of the assessed taxes. Deputations from Marytebone and Westminster attended. The Chairman having stated the object of the meeting several persons spoke strongly in support of it, and resolutions were passed, after which a provisional Committee was formed, and a number of inhabitants t once enrolled their names. INTERMENT OF THE LATE RAJAH RA MO/JUN ROY.—The remains of this eminent individual will not be deposited in any of the usual receptacles of the dead. "It had always been an object of great importance in the view of the 'Rajah," says a Bristol Paper, " to convince his countrymen that the relinquishment of idol worship, rite and the abolition of their superstitious and cruel . might be effected without deviating from the prin ciples of their ancient faith, or incurring the loss of Brahminicll caste thus W isely pr e p ar i ng t h e way f or t h e introduction of Ch r istia nit y a mo n g e th em.

There is als o room a that his enemies in India might avail themselvaepsp tact of his being buried wi t h Christians, or with Christian h e rites, to renew their hitherto unsuccessful endeavours to deprive him of caste, and embarrass his children in their succession to his property. Under these peculiar circum stances they have availed themselves of the permission given to deposit the honoured remains within the walls of Stapleton Grove, there to await any further decison il his family respecting them ; fulfilling, by thus inter ring them alone, and in an appropriate spot, the desire often expressed by the Rajah--'. Where be died be would be interred, privately and in silence." The recommendation attached to the petition wa• s'gned by seventy respectable neighbours. Mr. HALSEWELL (a Magistrate) said he had seen the premises, and would certainly support the ap plication. Mr. M‘WILLIA3f opposed it on precisely the same rizere technical grounds as in the first case. The Clerk of the Peace, on examining the peti tion, discovered that although in the preamble it ‘4 as set forth that the Minister and Churchwardens' sig natures were attached, yet, in fact, this was not the cage. BODKIN said the fact was, these gentlemen were out of town. The CHAIRMAN considered the objection a fata one, if the application were pressed to a decision o' the Court. Under these circumstances Mr. BODKIN consented to withdraw the 'petition. FRIBURG, Ocr. I.—The Baden troops, which have hten stationed for several months on the frontiers of Switzerland, are now all withdrawn. The battalion of the l et reCiment of infantry will arrive here to-morrow, and remain in garrison here till relieved by another batta lion. which will be garrisoned here permanently. The battalion, consisting of 680 men, is to he reduced to 60 men per company, who will be quartered in the barracks, but the officers in the town. STUTTGARD, OCT. 4.—His Majesty the King has given 300 florins to the society for providing for poor Jews and orphans, and destitute Children. The King has also very lately granted to Jewish or phans, the right to participate in due proportions the benefits of the public establishments for orphans. This is, indeed, not sufficient for the num bers who are in need of support. The debates on the plan for adopting the Prussian system of customs will probably shortly begin in our Chamber of Deputies. We hear that the Committee has already discussed the prin• Tinal convention, and has approved of it by a majority of 7 to 4, though with some modifications, which it is sup resed will not cause many difficulties. In consequence of this resolution of the Members, M. DiffiTor will be ap pointed to make a report to the Chamber, agreeably to the Tinian of the majority of the Committee. It is ex pected, that in the Chamber itself the majority will be in favour of the convention with Prussia, and that in par ticular several of the most distinguished Members of the opposition are inclined to it.

LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, OCTOBER J 2, 1833, The French Papers of Thursday are arrived in town. There is little intelligence in them that can be relied upon, especially on the subject of foreign affairs. Some of them contradict the reported differences between the French and Russian Governments, on the subject of the recognition of ISABELLA as Queen of Spain. The French correspondent of a Morning Paper contains the following : " It being reported here (Bourse) that Government had received intelligence of the renewal and complete suc cess of the Carlist revolt at Whoa, I inquired, and was again assured in a quarter which ought to be well informed, that the insurrection had been put down. Nevertheless another and an equally authoritative party pledges itself to me that a second revolt, headed by and Ex-Spanish guard-du-corps did actually succeed, and that the whole of Biscay was up in arms for Don Carlos. A similar assurance has been given me respecting Catalonia and Estremadura. Arago❑ is also said to he disturbed. It is reported here that tele graphic despatches, dated Madrid the 7th instant, have arrived to Government, announcing that the capital was tranquil, but that disturbances had taken place at Toledo. No such despatches have been received; but I lament to inform you, that accounts have otherwise reached Govern ment from Spain, the contents of which are of a very serious and alarming character. " The organisation of the French army of Observation on the Spanish frontier has been completed, and I have now every reaso❑ for implicitly believing that it will advance into Spain to the support of the young Queen, it there be any reason for apprehending the predominance of the Carlist party. " I have only time to add, that letters from Constanti nople, dated the 20th ult., were received in Paris on last Tuesday night. The Turkish capital remained perfectly tranquil; but a movement, favourable to the views of ltussia, was—by the writer of these letters (a person of distinction)—expected to take place within a month in Moldavia and Wallachia."

Belgian I oan, 1831, 91. Private letters received from Bilboa state, that in the second affray there two respectable Libe rals were massacred by the populace, and that Don CARLOS'S party succeeded in proclaiming him King of SPAIN. The only article in the German Papers that deserves remark is the assertion that, at the Congress of Munchengratz, the Emperor Nl ctroLAs submitted a plan respecting Poland, which cannot fail to produce a remonstrance from England, and probably from France too— a circumstance more than probable in our opinion. NICHOLAS can propose nothing with reference to Poland that can be acceptable to France and England but the spontaneous re• cognition of Polish independence, and what reparation it is yet possible to make for the past Me. A report has been current for the last two days that the Germanic Diet had refused to con sent to the cession of Luxemburg. We are authorised to state that the report is utterly without foundation. Several months ago the Conference, being aware that the formal concur rence of the Diet was necessary for the arrange ment in question, requested the King of HOL LAND to apply for it, so that in the event of his agreeing to the conditions proposed by them for the settlement of the Belgian question there might be no delay. As regarded the Diet, the Dutch KING, without absolutely pledging himself to obtain the concurrence of the Diet, which, in fact, depended upon himself, in accord with the three Powers which are supposed to have counselled his obstinacy, whilst they aCected to regret its existence, led the British and French Plenipotentiaries to believe, that he would im , i.t; lia6 ht.t. however, and therefore it is quite impossible. that there can have been a refusal on the part of the Diet. The conduct of the King of HOLLAND, on this subject, must shoN clearly, that he never had any intention of consenting to the settlement of the Belgian question, whatever may have been his prc fessions, and as something has continually occurred to make delay beneficial to hirr, his obstinacy and duplicity have produced all the effect that he could have de. sired from them. It is not probable, no w that events in Spain have turned up so fortunately for the Dutch system of procrastina tion, that the King of HOLLAND will display more real desire to conclude a treaty with his late subjects than he has hitherto done. If the affairs in Spain should take such a course as to call for the intervention of France, and Russia, Austria, and Prussia should n ot venture to interfere in favour of the Carlists, the Dutch KING will t h en ta k e alarm, and hasten to secure for hims e lf t h ose terms to which he will now hardly li s t en . If , on the contrary, a general war should ensue, he may hope to obtain re possession of Belgium in the general scramble. Under any circumstances he will gain breathin g time; and we consider it highly improbable that anything definitive will be done with the Belgian question until France and England shall have assumed that position in Europe which they ought to have taken long since, if they had been mindful of their power and interest. We have been authorised by some friends of the Member for Westminster (Colonel EvArls), who is now in Portugal, to state that there is no foundation for the assertion of a Weekly Paper, that his military services had not been of a character to entitle him to the rank which he holds in the army. A brother officer of Colonel EVANS has furnished us with the following account of his services. It is a triumphant re ply to the attempt which has been made to de preciate him:— 4s Lieut.-Colonel de Lacey Evans entered the army at an early age, and went to India; he was present at the taking of the Lie of France, of which be wrote an account. " In the beginning of 1812 he joined the 3d Dragoons, at Cinterbury, and soon afterwards went to the Peninsula, where he distinguished himself on several occasions. In an affair with the French army, the evening before the French blew up Burgos, he dashed forward with a few men, and in the most gallant manner captured one of the cannons that was covering their retreat, which he after wards reported to the Duke of Wellington, who only replied, ' Taken a gun, have ye? t a k en a sun, have ye? taken a g u n , have ye ? After the battle of Vittoria, Colonel Evans was placed on the Quar termaster -General's Staff, and made a survey of the Ebro. lie was in the battle of the Pyrenees; and after the as Q uartermaster-General. Hethe pe ace went to America with him, in hi s d espatches, in the strongest twGeraem'nerser,caaolsmßhieswn' Ross's s eedl a i' l Y so by Colonel Brook, who succeeded to the command upon General Ross being killed. For all made Capt a i n an d M a j or these services Colonel Evans was barbarity perpetrated by his myrmidons on this unhappy country. We are still without arrivals from Madrid of a later date than the :30th September. The following from Bayonne, dated the 4th current, is not in substance new, but, it being a kind of official piece of news we give it : It is reported here that Bilboa has proclaimed Charles V., bat no one believes iP. The following is a copy of the Carlist proclamation which has been circulated throughout Spain. " I am authorised officially to communicate to you the annexed protest, which was forwarded on the 29th of April, of the present year, by the Serenissimo Don Car los Maria I.idro, to his King and brother the Lard Don Fernando VII., whose soul may rest in peace : "‘ I, Carlos Maria Isidro de Bourbon and Bourbon, Infante of Spain, being ultimately convinced of my legitimate right to the succession of the Crown of Spain, in the event of your Ma jesty dying without leaving male issue, declare that I feel in conscience and honour bound not to take the oath, and recog nize other rights than my own. I here repeat the same de claration to the Envoy of your Majesty.—Your affectionate brother and subject, " the Infante Don CARLOS DE BOURBON AND BOURBON. " At the Palace of Ramalhao, April 2), 1533.' " King Ferdinand died without any male successor, and, according to the laws of Spain, the Lord Don Carlos (whom God may preserve) has ascended the throne. " All civil, military, and ecclesiastical authorities, or any others whatsoever depending on the Government, shall be held responsible, if (what cannot be expected) they obeyed other orders, than those emanating from the sovereign authority of Don Carlos V. (Signed) " JUAN DE GOYENECHE." " Behobia, Oct. 3, 1833." We have noticed with extreme disgust, and with shame for the character of the English Press, the falsehoods and personal calumnies periodically and systematically published against Lord DURHAM. The motives of these libel lous and disgraceful publications are too palpable to be mistaken, as many of the stories propa gated are pure inventions of political malevo lence. Lord DURHAM'S public character and principles have mortally offended the Conser vatives or Ultra Tories. These blind and self deceived persons think that they can " run down" Lord DURHAM. They are miserably mistaken ; and proportionably to the increase and extended malignity of these fictions, will be the additional public confidence placed in the patriotism and talents of his Lordship. hey have betrayed the trusts reposed in them This sensitive delicacy is visible throughout the whole document. The shrinking from " ques- ons which directly tend to impugn their con duct and motives, and thereby to degrade their authority, and destroy their influence in the town," is an exquisite piece of affectation. It beats hollow the reserve and bashfulness some- times put on by the " unfortunate girls" brought up to Bow -street. Their refusal to be examined on account of the great " temptation held out to perjury, by inviting all persons of whatever class character, or conduct," to give evidence, con tains one of those singular admissions which the most cunning of the light-fingered gentry some- times unwarily make, but which we were cer tainly surprised to see made in the deliberately penned resolution of such old stagers as the Lei- center Corporators. The sentence to be sure, rather obscure, but it cannot be doubted that the Mayor and Aldermen meant to include them- selves amongst the parties liable to commit perjury, for otherwise the declaration amounts to saying, " We will not give you a correct account, because your plan of examining every body will expose you to receiving false accounts," an absurdity of which we cannot suppose evon l'ofy Curporaciaii builty. We recommend the paper to the notice of our readers, for there can be no doubt of its being brought in evidence before the higher tribunal which will sit in judgment upon the corrupt practices now sought to be hidden from the in- vestigation of the active Commissioners appointed by the Crown. The gross personal abuse of the Commis sioners is only a proof that those gentlemen have faithfully and boldly discharged their duty . Tory calumnies are now too common and Iran. sparent to be mistaken for even the shadow o truth. Lord and Lady Hovvick are on a visit to Sir Joseph Copley, father of her Ladyship, at Sprotsborough, the seat of the Baronet, in Yorkshire. Mr. and the Hon. Mrs. Copley, who accompanied Lord Yarborough in his voyage to Cherbourg with the yacht squadron, have also arrived on a visit to the Baronet from the Isle of Wight. Lord Howick, not having any official duties to call him to the metropolis, will make some stay in the north. THE ROBBERY AT ASIIBURNIIAM-HOUSE. —The property stolen belonging to Prince Paul Lieven was deposited by him in a writing-box (not an escrutoire) i❑ his room when he went to bed, and whe❑ he got up on Wednesday morning he found it broken open. The money missing was about 60 sovereigns, and not 150, as before mentioned. No discovery has yet been made. BUXTON, OCT.

LEITH.—We understand that on the arrival of Mr. Murray, our respected Member, in town, a dinner is to be given him by his constituents here. A requisition is at present in course of signature to carry the above object into effect. Such marks of confidence and esteem, at once do honour to the constituent and the constituency. Mr. Murray is expected in town before the 25th inst., dbout which time the dinner will tike place.—Scolsman. THE EMPRESS OF RUSSIA.—One of the finest dancers in Europe is said to be the present Empress r o ec t R r e u a s t s i o i an, as o j is d join ni e n s bed to be so the dance nc e everydevotedlynigh t throughout fond year, either with the select members of the household, or at the sta e baths of the Imperial Court. Her Majesty was the Princess Royal of Prussia, fur whom was invented the popular pas of the Galope, a d ance now interdicted to the Empress by the physicians of St. Petersburgh. ANTIQUITY.—The labourers employed in excavating the new approach to th e town of Falkirk from the east, upon Friday last discovered a rudely hewn stone with certain characters cut . upon i t , which was at first supposed to be a Roman relic, from the spot where it wio. tOund, being only about eighty paces north from Graham's Dyke. It appears that it was embedded about Bor 9 feet beneath the surface of the hill, called Cl , ddin's Brae, and in shape it perfectly resembles one of the baliesters used i n supporting the flit stones in churchyards. Upon one -Me are the letters 0 C T 0 and A —l D, with the d a t,. 531 It is no doubt of Christian origin, but how such an object came to be deposited in the situation where it was found, after the lapse of thirteen centuries, is rather unaccountable. in the Spring of 1815. He then joined the Army of Wate,loo as Aide-de-Camp to Sir William Ponsonby, who was killed in the first charge ; Colonel Evans then joined General Pack, and was appointed his Aide-de-Camp ; and obtained his Lieutenant-Colonelcy along with the others who were recommended for their gallant conduct on that memorable day. Colonel Evans has been three times wounded, and has had six horses shot and sabred under him." Our readers are aware that the Municipal Corporation Commissioners gave the refractory corruptionists of Leicester a week to repent of their determination not to make confession of their misdeeds ; but it will be seen by the ac count of the Leicester Herald, the Conserva- tive organ in that town, quoted in another colum❑ of The Sun, that they have refused to take advantage of the locus penitentice offered them. Nay, more; they have absolutely perpe trated the folly of committing the reasons of their refusal to paper. This precious document is nearly as curious as Prince SouTzo's letter to the Greek bondholders ; but differs from it in this, that it excites more laughter than indig• nation. One is the proclamation of a highway robber out of the reach of justice ; the other is the blustering of a pickpocket just being caught by a policeman. The resolutions of the Con servative Corporation of Leicester amount to a good rating of the Government for having ad vised his MAJESTY to issue the commission under which they are required to render an ac count of their stewardship. They do not like, forsooth, that their documents should be exa mined by persons hostile to the corp oration, for fear that questions may be framed which will extract grounds to assail their character and pro perty, and induce a belief, of course false, that COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE SHARSPEARE'S comedy of Twelfth Night was w e ll played here last night, but, we regret to say it, not to such a hots-e as such a drama, so cast, should have at tracted. What with DOWTON as Maly°lio, rich and hit mourous, but not extravagantly so; BLANCHARD as Sir Andrew Ague-cheek, quaint, !oolish, and conceited, in exact accordance with the spirit of the test; BARTLEY, bluff, jolly, and impetuous, as Sir a oby Belch ; RUSSELL as the beau ideal of a fool, so much so as to make it dif ficult to suppose that he could ever he anything else; Miss INVERARITI• as Olivia, and Miss SITIRREFF as Viola —what with each and all of these attractions, we never saw a play so well and equally sustained throughout. The two ladies alone should h tve attracted a full house, for their singing was excellent of its kind, and the music of a superior character, particularly " Bid me discourse," which is one of the most beautiful —certainly the meat popular—of Bisiror's airs, and lost nothing of its effect in the bands of Miss San it- REEF. As regards humour, Sir Andrew Ague-cheek's duel scene—which gave SHERIDAN the first hint of a similar scene in the Rivals—was as rich a display as we ever witnessed. Nothing could exceed the earnestness of his apprehensions, or the convulsive start that seemed to shake him from head to foot, when Sir Toby Belch gently whispered in his ear that it was time for him to draw his sword. The character of this quaint, amusing, crack-brained coward, has always been a favourite subject for imitation with our elder dramatists, thus justifying the shrewd remark of GOETHE, that " SHAKSPEARE is dangerous reading for budding talent, for it compels it to reproduce him, when it fancies it is producing itself." In CONGREVZ'S earliest play, written when he was scarcely twenty•one, we have Sir Andrew Ague cheek metamorphosed into a justice of the peace, and reproduced under the name of Sir Joseph Wittol, While on the subject of theatricals, we may just mention, that the Literary Gazette of this day has put forth a fierce attack on Mr. BONN, for the system of humbug and mono poly he is now pursuing towards the public. Surely this is unfair ! We know of no humbug he is practising. All is plain sailing and above board. He engages all the theatrical excellence, town or provincial, that is now afloat, and to be procured ; he puts them into situations best fitted for their capacities ; and promises that by their means he will do his hest to bring back a love of Shakspeare and the legitimate drama! What more, then, can he do, or the public expect from him? As for monopoly, the cry is sheer cant. There is nothing of the sort in the case. The two theatres were ' all along open to the highest bidder ; there was nothing exclus.ve in the arrangement ; and if Mr. BONN has at length conic forward, it is only because he is possessed of more enterprise than any other theatrical speculator. And this enterprise is to be termed monopoly, and to be urged against him as a fit subject for condemnation ! On every principle of justice and common sense, Mr. BUNN is en ti,led to pubic gratitude; for it is notorious that had he not stepped boldly and promptly forward, when every one else shrunk back from sheer despair, we should have had no drama at all, or worse than none, a series of melodramatic monstrosities such as Lekinda, or the Sleepless Woman, perpetrated nightly at our minor theatres, while tee really sterling actors and actresses, such as AIACREADY, DOWTON, Miss PHILLIPPS, RUSSELL, &C., would have teen by this time starring it to " a beggarly account of empty boxes " in the provinces. All Mr. BUNN demands—and thus much, at least, he is entitled to demand—is fair play. Let not prejudice or interested motives dog his every footstep, and strive to run him down. Gave him a fair sta rt. The speculation he has entered upon is unpiralelled in its boldness and magnitude, and, as such, deserves the respectful attention of the public. It is a last attempt to revive the leOtitnate drama. If it fail then adieu to Shakspeare, and welcome the new sera o minor melodrame-mongers. BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.) Lewis Alexander was charged with driving his coach against an omnibus, and assaulting the conductor. Police sergeant, F 4, deposed that last night about 9 o'clock he was on auty oppmite St. Giles's Church, where h, saw the prisomr drive against an omnibus two or three times, so that persons could not get into it. He then got off his box, and attempted to drag the con ductor from the steps, for which he was give❑ in custody. He was very drunk at the time. Charles 11 7 ,11er said he was conducting an omnipus from Paddington to the Bink last night; when in High_ street, Holborn, the prisoner, who was driving a coach, came close up behind him, and when he stopped, he drove up against him, so that no one could enter, at the same time calling out to them, 4 . If you go with that oitinibw: they will charge you a shilling-_I will take you fur three pence." He then, wi•hout any provocation, jumped ti —s, and took hold of wiin , sS by both loge, and wool, have hail hirn down, had the pchicernan not interfered. The prisoner said lie was walking his coach after the omnibus, which stopped short, and he was obliged to do th e same; the conductor then kicked his horses, which ancered him, and he did try to punish him for it. He called a Mr. Jacobs, and the boy of the coach, to prove these facts. Mr. MINSHULL, however, held him to bail ; not being prepared with any, he was locked up. THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.)

(From Judd's Corn Letter.) At this day's market the supply of English grain has been li beral, and there was also a fair show of Irish samples. English wheat supported the"rurrency of this day se'nnight ; the price required latter,th atof saleso ur of the eg formerrowtli , were e the preference a limited extent on ly.

Malt was offer ing in considerable bulks, and difficult to quit. The oat trade was heavy, and old beans and peas a trifle lower, but few of the new of either crop have yet appeared; new boiling peas, both white and grey, were in demand. Flour supported recent quo tations, the make being less than usual, in consequence of the country millers being short of water. Wheat-sowing is about to commence, and we may expect shorter supplies of grain during this operation. WHEAT, per 62 lbs. BARLEY, per Quarter. Old, English, 6s. Sd. to 7s. 4d.

Mr. J" l ' L bel l brought an action against the bankrupt, in which ' e tio d a vei &et. The bankrupt still persevered in his ass e°. oo he was not indebted to the petitioner, and adopted,, ,sosr vexatious proceedings to delay the payment of tu e tbi ll Mr. Johnson, seeing that there was little chanc e or it if be showed the bankrupt any lenity, issues s ilo ke fieri facias against his goods for 751., the debt t d ipg s l in consequ e n ce o f t h e bankrupt's vexatious pro n,4 him.

Here is a bill, originally 01 ' 1 ,0 pounds, swelled up to 751.
