Mr. WALKER moved, on the authority of Sir E. Sugden's recent Act for the Relief of Suitors con fined in the Fleet for contempt, that Eleanor Bon nar, an aged woman, now confined there, he dis charged on putting in her examination, and that the costs of the contempt be paid out of tl i Suitor,' Fund. The prisoner, an executrix, refused to put in her examination, and was, in consequence, com mitted Mr. Roupel, one of the Misters of the Court, in his late visitation to the prison, in confor mity with the provisions of the Act, had questioned her, and found she was now willing to obey the orders of the Court ; but her poverty prevented her from making any application, or paying the costs al ready inctured. The Learned Counsel now moved, therefore, that she be discharged.

Ey command of their Lordships, On the receipt of the circular despatch from Mr. Stan ley, which we published on Friday, the Lieutenant- Governor of Demerara inserted it in the Gazette of the 15th ult., with the following Proclamation from his M tjesty explaining the purport of the Act for emancipating the slaves (From Dr. Ryan's Lectures in the Londo❑ Medical and Surgical Journal.) On chymical analysis, the human milk contains, independently of cheese, butter, and sugar, a prc portion of phosphate of lime, prepared by nature for the ossification of the new-born infant. 'When this is deficient, the bones remain imperfectly ossified, the teeth appear slowly and at a late period, the head and abdomen enlarge, the spine and limbs become deformed, or, to use a popular phrase, " grow out," and the infant is affected with rickets. The same defects are induced when infants are dry-nursed, or imperfectly nursed by the lower classes, of which we have numerous examples presented to our notice every day. The lower classes are compelled to commit their infants to the care of older children, or girls, who are unable to exercise them properly or keep them clean or comfortable. If we add to this, that breast milk is withheld, except in the morning and evening, and improper food substituted for it, we can readily perceive the exciting cause of rickets and deformities among children of the labouring poor. Some women secrete milk, which is too rich, and which causes indigestion, griping, green dejection% or motions, and cutaneous eropions ; others, a fluid which is serous, watery, or acid, and acts as a diuretic. Different kinds of milk are ob served among animals. That of one cow foi.flia more butter, that of another more cheese, and that of a third an acid fluid, which will not supply either substance. This difference explains the fact, that some healthful women, who have an abundance of milk, are compelled to procure wet-nurses, as their infants emaciate, and will die if suckled with the maternal fluid. .

If they could do so the elec tion by ballot would be a nullity.

The farming premises of Mr. Robert Rix, those of Mr. John Spruce, and those of Mr. R .bert Miller were all blazing at the same time. Mr. Spruce's and Mr. Mil ler's fat ms joined, and it is not positively known whether they were both set on fire, or whether the flames from one communicated with the other. The fire on Mr. Rix'- ' premises was first seen by a woman, and she says by the light of the blaze, she saw two risen in the stack-yard, and saw them run away. The fires continued to rake, and the barn, stables, and out-buildings, with the stacks of hay and corn standing in the stack-yards; were all con sumed. Three men have been apprehended on suspicion, an i are remanded for tut titer examination. Wymondharn has been for some weeks in a state of excitement, occa sione I, as it is said, by sonic recent alteration in the regu• I,tioni for the poor, and although there have never been fires here before, three polic,anen have been sent for, and have been in the town a fortnight or three weeks ; this, it seems, has given great off-nce to the people, and meet ings have lately been held (some clandestinely and others openly) amongst the woe king people respecting these mat te rs. —Norfolk Chronicle. By a letter from Paris of Thursday's date, it seems that some of the leading French capitalists who have connected themselves very extensively with financial ope rations for the Spanish Government under the late King, are placed in a very awkward dilemma. Those operations, as all who take an interest in the matter will probably recollect, were directed to the negotiation and bringing into circulation a very large amount of old dormant Spanish stock of various descriptions, the effect of which was to en file Ferdinand to go on without acknowledgment of the just demands upon hint under the Cortex loans. Now that Spain, under the government of the Queen, is enter• ing on a wore liberal course, it has becom e an affair of po licy, almost of necessity, that those loans should be recoe ii tied and in some way provided fur. This the capitalists in question very deafly perceive, and that they have only to obtain, what there would not be the least difficulty in d o i ng , same repre , entatien front their own Government on the subject, to lead to an immediate arrangement in the business. They have seen, however, by the report of Martinez, the Finance Minister, made before Ferdinand's death, which moreover told them nothing they did not verb well know before, that an effectual arrangement can not be made for the Cortes debt without a national bank ruptcy, and a sort of ' 6 equitable adjustment " for the whole debt of Spain, and the consequence to them is, which gives rise to their present dilemma, that they would lose as much by their old contracts with the Spanish Go. vernment as they are likely to gain by any new arrange ment fur the Cortes debt. This cannot, however, lie a permanent obstacle to the adjustment of a claim so indis putable, and which must perplex all the movements of the new Government until it is disposed of. " Whereas an Act bath been passed by his Majesty, with the advice and consent of the Lords spiritual and temporal, and Commons, in the Parliament of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland assembled, for the abolition of slavery throughout the Briti:h colonies, for promoting the industry of the manumitted slaves, and for cornoenaating the persons hitherto entitled to the services of such slaves; " And whereas it bath appeared to his Majesty expe dient to adopt the most effectual measures for preventing any misapprehension which might arise amongst any class of his Majesty's - faithful subjects in the colonies aforesaid respecting the effect of the said Act, and for allaying any excitement which might thereby he produced ; his Maj-sty doth therefore hereby proclaim and make known to all his Majesty's subjects inhabiting the said colonies, an 4 to all others whom it doth or may concern, that, until the first day of August, which will be in the year one thousand eight hundred and thirty-f ur, the laws at present in force in such colonies respectively f.r the government of the slaves therein will remain in full force and effect unaltered. By the said first day of August, one thousand eight hundred and th;rry-fhur, all persons who shall then be duly registered as sl,yes in such respective colonies, and who shall then be actually within the same, and who shall be of the full age of six years or upwards, will, by force and virtue of the said Act of Par liament, become apprenticed labourers in the service of the persons previously entitled to their services as slaves, and that the apprenticeship of such labourers will termi nate on the first day of August, 1834, or on the first day of August, 1838, according to the nature and description of the employment in which such labourers shall be seve rally engaged, as in the said Act set forth. And that such apprenticed labourers will, during such their ap prenticeships, he bound by law to labour in the service of their respective employers on such terms and conditions, and for such limited periods of time, as by the sib] Act of Parli iment, or as by Acts hereafter to be made and passed in such colonies respectively, are or shat be pre scribed in that behalf. And his Majesty doth further proclaim and make known, that, subject to such appren ticeship as aferesaid, all persons wbo, on the said first day of August, 1834, shall Le holden in shivery within any of the colonies aforesaid, will upon and from that day be absolutely and for ever manumitted and set free; and that from the said first day of August, 1934, slavery is and will be alsolished and unlawful throughout the said colonies. " And his Majesty doth further declare and make known that his Majesty bath, in pursuance of the powers in him vested by the said Act of Parliament, constituted and appointed the Commissioners therein mentioned for awarding to the proprietors of such manumitted slaves the compensation thereby provided for such proprietors. And his Majesty doth strictly charge and admonish all his faithful subj , icts within the coloni. s that they demean themselves submissively to the laws aforesaid, and especially that all persons now in a state of slavery in the said colonies do, until the first day of August, 1831, continue peaceably to perform the duties owing by them ae such slaves to their respective masters as heretofore. " And his Majesty doth hereby make known and declare his settled purpose and resolve, by all the powers and authority in him by law vested, to enforce due obedience to the laws in force, or which shall be so in force as afore said, within the said respective Colonies, and to prevent, and if necessary to redress and punish, all contraventions of the said ltws. And his Majesty doth further command and require all Governors, Judges, Justices of the Peace, and other his Majesty's officers, civil and military, within s iid Colonies, that they be, according to their respective offices and trusts, severally concurring in enforcing obedi ence to tiha al'?3esaid. And his Majesty doth further command and enjoin all his faithful subjects of 'ail ciass . es within the said Colonies that they be yielding all du. obedience to all the lawful commands of such his Majesty's officers in the premises, as they will answer the contrary at their peril.

A courtniartial is ordered, we understand, on the master, and en the Hon. Lieut. Murray, who was officer of the watch. She had no pilot on board at the time of the accident. ST. JOHN'S, NEWFOUNDLAND, OCT. 14.—The Gover nor returned from a cruise to toe southward on the :30th of September, having in the course of it visited Halifax, Pictou, and Sydney ; the Local Legislature stands proro gued to the 10th of January next, then to meet for the despatch of business. The colonial vessel Forte sailed for Quebec on the 4th instan , , to bring down the newly appointed Chief Judge (Bolton), and his family. Toe fishery has been tolerably successful. The good eff cts of the present state of affairs in Portugal on the trade of this country are very sensibly felt this season, with the excep tion of that carried on at Labrador, which has almost entirely failed. I copy from one of our local papers some remarks about the weather we have experienced here this year, which you may probably think interesting : " There cannot be a doubt that the weather during the present summer (if, ind,ed, it might be so called) has been most remarkably uncongenial ; for though it may have appeared to an indifferent observer to have been favourable to agriculture, it has, in reality, been far from it. Take the state of the thermometer (in the night) since the Ist of May, and we find that the mercury was below the freezing point one and t.venty times; on one occasma (the 11th) it sunk as low as 19 deg. ; in the month of June it was no less than seven times at or blow 32 deg.; in the month of July it w are only eight times above 50 deg. ; whilst on three occasions it was below 40 deg. The Ratlesnake, 28, Captain Charles Graham, was paid off into ordinary on Monday. The .

GUDGEON.—This cause, which is in the Lord Chancellor's paper for hearing on appeal, was C imun need in the year 1795, and involves property to the amount of about 200,0001. Mr. Gudgeon was r, merchant and trader at Dominica. Abou' the year 1788 he took a young ni in named Dodson, who had been previously em ployed by him, into partnership. About 1792 Dodson set sail for Englan I, but the ship ‘t - as never heat d of, and it is supposed foundered at se-s. Gudgeon amassed a large fortune in business, and retired to England. Dodsoti's representa'ive then called upon him for an account of the partnership dealings and transactions, and of the separate property of D )(Ism' which h id come into Gudgeon's hands as ex-cutor to Dodson. Gudgeon stated that no articles of partnership had been ex•euted b•rween them, hut their was an understanding between , hem that Dodson was to have one-third of the profits. The persons beneficially in terested in Dodson's property then required Gudgeon to produce the partnership pap,re, but Gudgeon said he was unable to do so, as the papers were destri,yed at the inva sion of Dominica by the French army. A suit was then instituted again 4 Gudgeon for one_half sh ire of the p irt nership property, and the distribution of D ,dson's effects which. had come to him as executor. Under a decree of the Gantt an issue was tried in the Court of Common ' Pleas to determine tit- question whother Dodson took one third or one-half of the property. Iri eons• quence of the destruction of the books arid papers by the French at Dominica, much evidenca of a secondary nature was ad duced on the part of Gidgeon's representatives, showing the several transactio ns between Gudgeon and Dodson. The verdict of the jury was, that Dothan was entitled only to one-third share of the property. The Vice- Chancellor granted an order for a nem trial, on the ground of misdirection of the judge, and against that order that present appeal is made to true Lord Chancellor. Gudgeon, Dodson, and their first represent itives are dead. The p ir ties promoting th e suit are representatives in the second degree. The p resent plaintiff is a young lady about 17 y e ars of age, wh o will b., entitled to mac-half of the pro perty if it is de c id e d that Mr. Dodson was entitled to one half of the partnership property. BARNSTAPLE. .Last week the operatives in Mr. Millar's lace factory in this town, simultaneously quitted their work ; the cause we understand to have arisen from a di satisfaction on toe part of the men to the length of time they were requited to labour, being from five o'clock in the morning to seven at night, with intervals of half an hour at breakfast, and three qu titers of an hour at dinner; and, as must be necessary to a concern where suet numbers are employed, the time is marked will g reat exactness, and when either of the men wire a few minutes mulct out of a po rt i on of their wages ; and, accor di ng , to gates w e r e s h ut aga i ns t th em , an d they were theirlatereptrhee,e4tati,m, many y of them live at a considerable distance from tile will, and cannot go to their homes, get their breakfast, and return to the scene of labour within the half hour ; they, therefore, deputed some members of their body to confer wi t h the inviter, in order to obtain an ex tension of their ti me to an h our each, at b rea kf a st an ti dinner, to whi c h 11Ir. Miller re t urned a negative, but offered to extend the time fur breakfast to three quartet's of an hour ; but this would not satisfy the men, and they in consequence struck, and still continue out of work.-- Shertorne Journal. There is a principle in milk besides the preceding qualities, a viral principle, a certain degree of vita lity, which evaporates on the fluid being exposed to the air, or on being boiled. In proof of this, I may mention, that if breast milk be collected in a bottle and given to an infant, a sufficient aliment is not afforded ; and that women, when excited by passion, who have suckled their infants, have often caused them to be suddenly attacked with convulsions. The milk in the breast only contains the vivifying principle. A remarkable illustration of this doc trine is given by M. Leroy. Ile states, that the administrators of the hospital at Aix in Provence consulted the Faculty of Medicine of Paris, in 1775, to inform them of the means of preserving fondling infants, as those under their care perished about the fourth month and a half. They desired to know the cause of this disaster, and the means of remedying it. The Faculty appointed M. Leroy, as their commissioner, to give an answer. He re plied that the mortality was caused by feeding the infants from a boat or cup, and that they did not receive a principle sufficiently vivifying for their conservation; that, at the age mentioned, nature commenced her efforts for development, and that the infant could not support this critical period, unless it had taken a sufficiently vivifying principle with its aliment. He advised the infants to be nourished by she-goats. These animals were driven into the wards in which the children were ranged, each went in search of the child committed to its nourishment, raised the bed covering with its horns, and placed its udder near the mouth of its charge ; and in a short time children were reared in the hos pital in great numbers. But the infants to whom wate►ed cow's milk was given almost always died ; this milk had lost, by exposure to air, its vital prin ciple, and the mortality was always great when children were nurtured with this aliment. They were affected with mkrasmus, worms, scrofula, &c. —Medeeine Maternelle, par M. Leroy. Within the last few weeks 400 men have left Norwich for Portugal. BULL BAlTlNG.—Several efforts have been made to put down this barbarous practice in the mining districts of Warwick, but without success. Last week a publican, named Bowster, living in Rowley Reeis, West Bromwich, had a bull baited in one of his own fields for several days. On the Monday alone 26 dogs wore counte brought by the lowest rabble from Birtnisghatn, Wednesbury, 8c..!., for the purpose of worrying this poor animal; and on the Wednesday, instead of employing a butcher to put an end to the creature's sufferings, his rapacious owner sold him to some 1-Mows from Brierley Hill, to undergo similar tortures. Another publican, named Hackett, caused a small two year old bull to be tied to a stake in his own premises fur the amusement of the rabble tippling in his house 'luring the four first days of the week; each deeraded wretch bringing a doe, being njoired to pay 6d. before he set his cloy to gnaw the fl .h fiiim the head and face of the miserable animal. Either on the Monday or Tuesday one of this bull's horns was broken off, and the following day the other shared the same fate, and a portion of the tongue was also torn out of his mouth by one of the clogs. Oo the Thursday he was attain dragged to the stake and worried for hours, the whole of his head and face being mangled and covered with blood, in a manner too shocking to describe. Two iron horns had been also rivetted on the broken stumps, and the hellowings and groans of the wretched beast, while undergoing this barbarous operation, were truly appalling. The Rev. C. Toamshend, Vicar of West Bromwich, is exerting himself to put a stop to these practices. THE USE OF THE RIGHT HAND.—The means employed for supplying the muscles with blood, on the quantity of which depends the degree of the contrac tile power, are next considered by the author, who refers to the commonly receive opinion, that the properties of the right hand, as compared with those of the left, are superior, and that the difference is caused by the difference in the manner in which thearreries are distri.iured in each. Toe notion generally entertained is, that the trunk of the artery going to the right arm passes off from the heart, s o as to admit the blood directly and more forcibly into the small vessels of the arm. But Sir Charles altogether re j cts such an explanation, as it is founded on the common error of seeking in the mechanism the cause of phenomena which have a deeper source. He observes that there is a distinction in the wh le right side of the body, and that the left side is not only the weaker in regard to muscular strength, but also in its vital or constitutional properties. The (level opulent of the organs of action and motion is greatest up on the right side, as may at any time be aster toned by measurement. or the testimony of the tailor or shoemaker; certainly this superiority may be said to result from the more frequent ex,•rtion of the right hand ; t o ut the peculiarity extenda to the constitution also, and disease attacks the left extremities -more than the right. In opera dancers we in iy sec that the most difficult fe.ts are per formed with the right foot, But their preparatory exer cises better evince the natural weaku cs of the left limb, since these performers are made to give double practice to this limb, in order to avoid awkwardn-ss in the pub ac e xhibition ; for if these exercises be nealeeted an un l zr..ce. ful preference will be given to the right side. In walking behind a person it is very seldom we see an equalized mo tion of the body ; and if we look to the left toot tee shall find the tread is not so firm upon it, the roe is not 0.0 touch turned out as i❑ the r.ght, and a greater push is ule with it. From the pcu liar form of woman, and the elasticity of her step, re•udiog more from the motion of the ancle than of the heunc , es, the detect of the Irlr Ito', when it exists, is more apparent in her gait. No buy hops up in his left foot, unless he be lefthanited. T e borsem in puts the left foot i❑ the stirrup, and springs from the right. We think we may conclude that everythin. being adapted in the conveniences of life to the right hand as, for, example, the direction of the worm of the screw, or the cutting en.l of the auger, is not arbitrary, but i• related to a natural endowment of the body. He who i lefthanded is mo,t sensiiole to the advantages of this adap tation, from the opening of a parlour door to the (mentor of a penknife. Oa the whole, the preference of the nab hand is not the effect of habit, but is a natural provision . trod is bestowed for a very obvious purpo.e; and the pi perty does not depend on the peculi,r dis:rioution of tr: arteries of the arm, but the preference is given to the right foot as well as to the right hand. —Rell on Me Hand. REX V. SLAUGHTON. This was a rule for a criminal information against the proprietors of a Hertfordshire paper, for a libel on the Magistracy of that county, and particularly on a Mr. Alston, one of that number. The liba arose out of matters connected with the last elec ion. Mr. FOLLETT showed cause against the rule; but The COURT said the rule must be made absolute. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Nov. 23. (Sittings in Banco.) PRICE V. HARRIS AND OTHERS. This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a lady, the proprietor of a house in the city, against the defendants, seventeen in number, for pulling it down and carrying away the materials. Sixteen of the defendants went to trial, and obtained a ver dict. One of the defendants, a person of the name of Proctor, suffered judgment to go by default, and the damages were assessed at 900/. The plaintiff, to-day, applied to set aside the verdict against one of the defendants who was improperly acquitted. The COURT granted the application upon the terms that she should enter a noli prosequi against the other fifteen, and that the damages should not be increased beyond 900/ ; and further, that the other defendant who suffered judgment to go by (I,fo u tt. rnizzrt, .. , "6":37.7 :67:3 COUrt and vi, CU re duce the damages. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Nov. 23. (Sittings in Jhnco.) ACTION AFTER PAYMENT OF DEBT.--COOK v. BROOKS, CLERK, _ _ Mr. EARLE moved for a rule to show cause why the verdict found for the di fendant should nor he set aside, and a verdict entered for the plain - iff, with one shilling damages, or why a new trial should not be had upon the following statement :—Mr. Payne, plaintiff's attorney, having repeatedly applied to the defendant for the debt due to his client, and having received from him a check to the amount, which was dishonoured, issued a writ of summons, and, to avoid the scandal of personally serving a clergyman, wrote to apprise him of the commencement of the action, and requested him to name some attorney who would accept process on his behalf, statir'g the debt was nine pounds awl costs two pounds. In reply the defendant enclosed a check for the amount of the debt only, and thanked Mr. Payne for his indukence. Mr. Payne paid the check over to his client for the debt, but applied to the defendant for the costs, who reft“td to pay them. On this the action was pro,ecuied, and wa- , , under the recent Act of Parliament, tried helot e the Sheriff, who ,aid, in his charge to the Jury, that the only question they h d to consider was, whether the debt was satisfied. The Jury accordingly gave a verdict for the defendant, re.erving to the plaintiff a right to make this motion. The Learned Couns(l contended that the authorities were perfec ly clear on the point that the satisfaction of the debt alone after action commenced, was no stay of proceeding.; and that if the defendant refused to pay costs, the plaintiff was entitled to such nominal damages as would carry costs. True COURT concurred in opinion, provided the check wa• receipted expressly for the debt alone, and against a rule to show cause at Chambers. PREROGATIVE COURT, Nor. 23. (I 3 (:re Sir Joinv Nuniot ) IN TUE GOODS OF IIOWLET, DECEASED. In this case a proctor had sent into the Preroga•. •ive Office a paper to pass probate in the common form, it having been commenced by the deceased ,vith his name, but not signed at foot. The notice of the Court having been coiled to the subject, Sir JOHN NICHOLL expressed his fear and astonish ment that such au unfinished paper had been pre -ented to pass probate in the common form by one of the procrors of that Court. The public had confidence in the proctors, and they were respon ,ible to that Court for the due protection of pro. perry ; for which purpose they had the exclusive light of passing probates. A paper executed like that before the Court had not been held to be a perfect document by Lord Eldon, Lord Hard wicke, or by any Court; and he felt a great decree of alarm at such a paper having been presented, as, if it had passed, it might have been attended with serious consequences. The paper left the whole property to the widow if it had been complete, arid two natural daughters were unprovided for. He vas bound to pronounce against the validity of the oaper before the Court, and decree that the de. ceased had died intestate. LOVEGROVE V. LOVEGROVE.
