The Bulletin of his MAJESTY'S health, issued yesterday, was as follows : " Windsor Castle, May 4. " The KING slept some hours last night, end his MA JESTY feels himself rather better this morning. (Signed) " HENRY HALFORD. " MATTHEW J. TIERNEY." The number of persons collected at the King's Palace, St. James's, previous to the time when the doors were opened, and the Bulletin shown to the nobility and gentry by the Lord in Waiting, was greater than on any former day. The Bulletin being more favourable than those issued for some days past, appeared to give the greatest satisfaction to the numerous inquirers after the health of the KING.

Prince LEOPOLD left town yesterday, for his sett at Claremont. The Duke and Duchess of CUMRERLAND, accompanied b y Prince GEORGE, came to town yesterday, from Kew. The Duchess and the Prince remained but a short time in town, and returne I to Kew. 'I be Spanish Minister had an interview with the Earl of Aniaratax yesterday at the Foreign Office. Despatches from Lord HEVTESBURV, our Ambassador at St. Petersburgh, for the Earl of ABERDEEN, were brought to the Foreign Office by a Messenger, on Monday night. The Marquis of SALISBURY and the Earl of ABERDEEN visited the Duke of WELLINGTON yesterday, at the Treasury. An express arrived in tows yesterday morning, bringing an account of the death of Sir ROBERT PEEL, at his seat, Drayton Park, Staffordshire, which event occurred at six o'clock 011 Mond a y evening, before Mr. Secretary (now SirS 11°BE IT), and M r . W ILLIAM PEEL, had arrived from ondon. Mrs. Dawsort was at Drayton Park at the time of the melancholy event. - - MANOR OF HAMPSTEAD. A meeting of the Copyholders of the Manor of Hampstead was held on Monday evening, in the Committee room at Hampstead, to take into con sideration Sir T. M. Wilson's Estate Bill, to enable him to grant building leases on the lands on Hamp stead-heath. CHARLES HALFORD, Esq. was unanimously called to the Chair, and briefly explained the object of the meeting. SAMUEL HOARE, Esq. moved that a petition should be prepared against the Bill, and presented on the sitting of the House of Lords, on Wednes day, the sth of May, when the Bill is to be brought up fcr the second reading—the Bill being, as ad vised by Counsel, highly prejudicial to the interests of the Copyholders. Upon the resolution being seconded, it was una nimously carried; the petition was then agreed to, and signed very numerously at the meeting, by many highly respectable gentlemen and large copy hold tenants on the court rolls of the manor of Hampstead. The meeting then broke up at near eleven o'clock. Sir J. NEWPORT has given notice that in the Committee on the " New Stamp Duties' Bill," he shall propose the repeal of the stamp-duty-tax on legacies to children and grandchildren ; to reduce to one-half that on legacies to brother and sister, and their descendants; also to reduc e the probate duty to one-half of its present rate; to reduce the tax on Newspapers and on Advertisements one-half of its present rate in Great Britain and Ireland severally ; and if the House shall adopt these reductions, to substitute an increased tax on powers of attorney to re ceive rents and dividends, rated according to amounts of receipts, and renewable every third year. THE DUKE OF SUSSEX'S CELEBRATED CHA IR.—A morning cotemporary mentioned a day or two ago that a peculiarly constructed chair had been received at Windsor, which it was expected would be found of the greatest service to his MAJESTY for the ease it affords to invalids labouring under a difficulty of breathing. This chair Lelontts to the Duke of SUSSEX, and was made for his Royal Highness at a time when he was labouring un der an " embarrassment" in his breathing. It is consi dered to be the most perfect tiling of the kind which has ever been constructed. His Royal Highness wrote to Sir HENRY HALFORD, offering the chair for the use of his Royal patient, and Sir HENRY immediately laid the letter befor e his MAJESTY, who was pleased to express his wish to accept the offer. As soon as his Royal Highness re ceivul a communication to that effect from Sir HENav, th e chair was immediately despatched to Windsor. It is confidently hoped in certain quarters that the circum stance will lead to a reconciliation between his MAJESTY and his Rod al Highness. PE R .. "IN WA RBECK.—MPS.

LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, MAY 5, 1830. HIS MAJESTY'S HEALTH. The following Bulletin was issued this morn- ing : " Windsor Castle, May 5. " The KING continues much the same. His MAJESTY has passed a comfortable night. (Signed) " HENRY HALFORD, " MA ['THEW JOHN TIERNEY." A rumour has been put forth by the friends of the East India Company, that it is the intention of the Committee of the Commons to recommend the removal of so much of the present restrictions as to prevent British chips clearing out directly for China, but to advise the continuance of the importation monopoly. Something would be gained by our manufacturing and shipping in terests by this alteration, but it falls very short of what the public are justly entitled to, and we hope the report may be premature, though it comes from a quarter which, we fear, is too well informed on the subject. The Beer Bill was read a second time last night, after a spirited debate, by a majority of 245 against 28, and ordered to be committed on Monday next. Lady CANNING, in her account of Mr. CAN NING'S policy towards Portugal, says that that great Minister, a few days before his death, made this remarkable observation :—" I have " laboured hard for the last few years to place the country in the high station which she now " holds; two years of the Duke of WELLING " TON'S Government will undo all that I have " done." To prove the truth of this prophecy another pamphlet has been put forth on Mr. CANNING'S foreign policy, which is also at tributed to Lady CANNING, and if not actually written by her Ladyship, is certainly published with her privity and sanction. It first explains the manner in which Mr. CANNING obtained for this country the power and respect she en joyed throughout the world at his death, and then contrasts his policy with that of the present Administration, who are charged with having lowered us in the general estimation of Europe, with having forfeited the influence we ought to possess over the European Governments, and with having, in fact, brought us to the verge of war. The little interest taken by the generality of people in England in our foreign policy arises either from ignorance of the important effects which its good or bad management cannot fail to produce—or from an over-weening confidence in the present Government, arising from the straight-forward and liberal course of its domestic policy. The truth however is, that it is more desirable that Ministers should be closely watched in their foreign than in their domestic measures, because with regard to the latter the Ministers possess no exclusive information, or no better means of judging than other people ; whereas, in the former, the course of diplomacy is ever enveiled in some degree of mystery, and the habitual practice of Parliament, in g i v i ng confidence to the declarations of Ministers that papers cannot be produced, leaves them a far larger share of discretion than, in other matters, is entrusted to them. People ought therefore never to be deterred, by the fear of embarrassing a well-mear.ing Government, from inquiring strictly into the state of our foreign relations—much less ought they to feel indifferent to a subject in which the happiness of Europe is bo deeply involved, and upon which the erroneous or prejudicial judgment of a Minister may lead to the most calamitous re sults for many nations. The pamphlet traces the changes in our foreign policy from the time when the map of Europe, with the sanction of England, was par-' celled out by the Congress of Vienna, to suit the convenience of the three most powerful of the Continental Sovereigns, to that when the ascendancy of Mr. CANNING placed Great Britain in the front of the friends of liberty, in stead of in the rear of the Holy Alliance. It shews that his avowed hostility to the areopa gitical spirit of that alliance, induced its mem bers individually to seek his confidence and co operation—Austria having joined herself with England i►► superintending the negotiations be tween Brazil and Portugal—France and Russia having solicited Mr. CANNING to. take the Greek question under his management—and France having singly sought his counsel as to the best means of withdrawing her troops from the Peni►►sula. The names of Great Britain and CANNING operated as a charm throughout the world, as a consolation for many sufferings, and as an encouragement to hopes for the en joyment of many blessings that had long been prayed for in vain. As a contrast to this state of things, we are referred to the feeling of irritation prevailing now on the Continent against us, on account of our conduct in the affairs of Greece and Portugal, of which so much has lately been said in Parlia ment. The state of matters in France is, in this respect, particularly worthy of notice, for it is in•• disputable that there is more hostility now among the Liberals there against the Duke of WEL LINGTON and his Government, than there was against Mr. CANNING by the Congregational or Priest party. Events seem to point out as clearly as any can well do, the defeat of the Polignac Ministry, and their replacement by one in accordance with the popular wishes. In such a case, what harmony can be expected to sub sist between Great Britain and France, whilst our Ministry is suspected, justly or un justly, of plotting against the liberties of the French people ? In such a case, is it not evident that a close alliance must take place between France and Russia, whose Ambassador at Paris, that celebrated diplomatist, the General Pozzo DI BORGO, is now exerting all his influence to effect the overthrow of the POLIGNAC Cabinet ? Russia is now looking to a close union with France, as soon as the Liberals shall attain power, which, in the nature of things, they must do, sooner or later ; and it is needless to add, that such an union, whether it lead to territorial aggrandizement, or to such an excitement of Europe against us as may make a defensive war on our part unavoidable, cannot but be, in its results, highly dangerous to Great Britain. It is high time that the Government should pause, to look around it, and to consider the temper of the mass of the inhabitants of Europe. There are now but two great political divisions of men—those who are the upholders of ab solute monarchy and of the perpetual supremacy of arbitrary governments, and bigotted hierarchies —and those who are striving for the ame lioration of societies, and for the establishment of civil and religious liberty on constitutional foundations. The latter division is gradually in creasing in numbers, and in strength ; it com prises all those who have sufficient intelligence to perceive that constitutional freedom is the best and surest road to national happiness ; it enrols in it the names of all those enlightened men who constitute the Republic of Letters ; it is supported and defended by the power of the press. This great division of continental Europe looks at present—not to England—but to France and Russia—as the friends of freedom and civi lization. The eyes of Europe are turned— not to the nation which enjoys the utmost de gree of freedom within itself—because she dis plays a reluctance to co-operate in extending that freedom to other States,—but towards that gigantic power which overspreads half Europe, and a third of Asia, ruling a ninth part of the earth with the sceptre of despotism, but wield ing that sceptre so as to advance the civilization of mankind, attracting to it the hopes and affec tions of those who are striving for freedom.— What Englishman but must blush for the repu tation of his country, should such a feeling l ong continue to influence the liberal minded portion of the nations of Europe—and yet the seenzingly tortuous course of our foreign policy (for Lord ABERDEEN has not yet put it in a straightfor ward view) with respect to MIGUEL, and other parties, would imply that its tendency is more favourable to those in power than those who so unjustly suffer at their hands. . . Since the above was written we have seen it denied that Lady CANNING has any knowledge of the above pamphlet. THE MUSSULMAN.—The work just pub lished under this title exhibits perhaps a more correct and animated picture of Turkish life, than has ever before been given to the public. The author, Mr. Madden, is well known by his recently published " Travels in Turkey, Egypt," &c., which work was so very generally read and admired for the new views it presented to us of this ex traordinary people. Mr. Baron GARROW is confined by a severe fit of gout, which at present does not promise an early ter- nnination. On Sunday afternoon the Countess of FOR TESCUE was robbed of 5 valuable gohl Jepeater, gold chain, and appendages, as she was leaving Park-street Chapel, in Park-street, with which the thief got clear off. Among the inmates of Bedlam is a gentleman who some years ago wrote a violent book against Lord BYRON. JOHN FLEMING, Esq., of Stoneham-park, Southampton, allots portions of land to large families, which they are allowed to occupy, rent-free, as long as they are no burden to their parishes. Yesterday there was a numerous Meeting of the Irish Members, held at the Thatched-house Tavern, Sir JOHN NEWPORT in the chair, when a series of Reso lutions were adopted, expressive of their determination to re,ist, by every means in their power, the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER'S intended imposition of fresh taxes upon Ireland,--viz. the additional duties on corn, spirits, stamps, &c. These resolutions received last night, in the House of Commons, the signatures of several other Mem bers connected with Ireland, who had not attended the Meeting. Among the on slits which we have heard, but do not vouch for, is the alleged marriage of a young and interesting actress to the son of a gentleman whose name is well known in the moneyed world.

They hailed her, but received no answer. The mate and two men went on board in the boat, and found the crew in the cabin lying on the floor asleep. The mate put several questions to them, but re ceived no answer. The vessel was lying to, drifting with all sails set on the fore-mast ; the name on her stern, the Assiduous, of Brixham. Off Portland the 4th, the Isabella, Bouchin, from Bombay, sailed the 13th of December, and from the Cape of Good Hope the 9th of March. Off Hastings, the Diana, Winter, from Berbice. THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE 0' CL 0 CK. Ltvintroca., MAY 3.—The sales of Pine timber have been more limited this week, and we have had fewer country dealers in town than usual ; in price there is no alteration. A cargo of St. John's Pine of middling quality was offered by auction at 200. and 19id. per foot ; the stock now on hand is 500,000 feet of yellow Pine and 50,000 of red Pine. There has been a tolerably good demand for Baltic timber this week, and a great propor tion of the present stock is old timber, which prevents any advance on the article. Very little continues to be done in Indigo. The 'Wheat market continues extremely heavy, and prices are on the decline. depot attles • tO were October Penne- THE cog- CORDON'S fGS FROM M. W. ix. Hon.

The weather being exceedingly fine, together with the expectation of several foreign ar rivals of Grain, causes a very dull market r,to-day, and although good parcels of Corn cannot he reported any lower, yet sales have been made to a very limited extent this morning.

Ile and Sir MATTHEW TIERNEY are both still in attendance upon his MAJESTY; but you are not, there fore, to conclude that his MAJESTY is worse ; for the con trary is the fact. To-day, for the first time, the ropy of the Bulletin has been sent officially to the MAYOR of I.Vindsot ; and that Bulletin says—" His MAJESTY had some hours' sleep last night, and feels himself rather better to•day." This is as obscure as ever, you will say : and so it is ; but, by way of " enlightening its darkness," I can add, that the Noble man who holds the highest office in the Royal Household, who has been kr years in constant residence with the KING, and who has the most lively interest in his MA JESTY'S restoration to health, delivered himself thus on the question this morning :—" His MAJESTY is better— decidedly better ; and he may now be pronounced to be completely convalescent." The wisdom of " the City" in the North and South American Coffee-house assembled, may. perhaps, set this down for nothing, and say his Lordship's wish is the father of his opinion. But, with all due submission to their extreme profundity, I beg leave to say that his Lordship's opinion is corroborated by incidents too numerous to be here set down ; and though his MAJESTY may not live to be quite so old as METHUSA LEM, he is not in danger of quitting this world at present. The Bishop of CHICHESTER arrived at the Castle to day, on a visit to his MAJESTY, and is likely to remain some days. There have teen no other arrivals. Died, at Drayton Manor, Staffordshire, on Monday, the 3d of May, Sir ROBERT PEEL, Bart., aged SO years. By the death of Mr. MONTAGUE AINSLIE, a vacancy has taken place in the celebrated Fourteenth List of Commissioners of Bankrupt. The deceased was also a Bencher of Gray's Inn. DRURY-LANE THEATRE.—A new farce, entitled, A Joke's a Joke, or too much for Friendship, was produced here last night. It is but a so-so affair, and fortunately was not announced fin• repetition. COVENT-GARDEN.-- Th e Colonel, a new farce, i❑ two acts, made its first and last campaign at this theatre last night. In other and more explicit words it was damned. MEMOIRS OF BOURRIENNE.—The trans lation of the third and concluding volume of this important and curious publicatio n has just appeared. The work throws much new and valuable light on some of the grand est occurrences of im.dern times. Among other details it includes the secret history of the Russian campaign, the restoration of Louis XVIII. and the return of NAroLEoN from Elba, together with his subsequent proceedings. It will now he seen what false steps led to the overthrow of the imperial power, amid a succession of events unpa ralleled in the annals of modern warfare. M. BOUR RIENNE well knew the secret springs and motives that in fluenced the principal agents, and he has fully initiated the public into all these mysteries. FOREIG RYE ELECTION.-(THIS DAY.) The Committee met at eleyen o'clock. tha Ar. HAR RISON t l hail been Rl a r esumed dtiuce th e adduced. The Tiiesupcmin Learned Counsel the counse evidence woull first call the attention of *he Committee to the term " Baron," which the other side had treated with so much dignity.—( A laugh.)—He should be able to satisfy them that in the Cinque Ports " Baron" meant nothing more than a " Freeman." He was aware the word would admit of various interpretations. It was only necessary now, however, to show the evident meaning of the Charter, that gave certain privileges to the Ba rons and their Heirs of the Cinque Ports to prove the claim set up by the petitioners. He must totally deny the inference drawn by his Learned Friend as to the meaning of the word ; it never could be so construed by the wording of the Charter; for instance, that Charter in page 7, gave liberties and exceptions to the freemen of the Cinque Ports, being Barons, which clearly meant all those resident within the ports paying scot and lot. If this was not the case, what had become of those ancient Barons about whom so much had been said ? they could not now be in existence. The first document that had been pro• duced was an award made by a Committee of very learned personages including several eminent Judges, Serjeants at law, &c. &c. that had been appointed to decide what in habitants of the Cinque Ports were entitled to the privi lege of fishing and drying their nets on a part of the coast near Great Yarmouth ; that Committee decided that all the inhabitants of the said ports were entitled to the privi • leges. In fact Barons and freemen were never different persons until found so by his Learned Friend (Serjeant tpankie). He (Mr. Harrison) did not mean to contend, that every person eating and drinking in any of the Cinque Ports was entitled to the privileges thereunto belonging, but he would contend that every resident inhabi tant paying scot and lot was entitled. Another document had been put in by the other side, which enacted, that if the Barons of Dover did not perform certain services to the King they would be banished from the port, and an argument had been founded on it to the effect, that the word Baron, there could not mean all the resident inhabi tants, as it never could he supposed that the whole popu lation was to be driven from the place. No argument could be drawn from the document of such a nature, when it was taken into consideration the state of population at the time it bore date, with the present time. This document was dated previous to the year 1378, which was the fist time there was any estimate formed of the popu lation of the country. Iu that year it was stated the population of Great Brit tin was only 2,300,000 ; in 1485 it had increased to 3,000,000 ; in 1585 to 4,400,000 ; in 1698 to 5,500,000 ; and, at the present time, there were 14,000,000 of inhabitants ; therefore, as he before said, nothing could be said as to the population of Dover at the time the document bore date. The argument of his Learned Friend, on this point, must, therefore, fall to the ground, The increase of the wealth of the country had also gone on progressing with the population. It was therefore idle to talk of the consequences that would at that time ensue by banishing all the Barons of Dover—it was a thing that coulnl then have very easily been done. When a freeman went to Yarmouth, he had nothing to do to entitle him to the privileges but to show that he belonged to one of the Cinque Ports. The term " Baron" was still kept up for corporation purposes, and when a freeman was summoned to carry the canopy at Co ronations, he was styled Baron, but that term, and freeman in the sense intended by the Charter, were synonimous, and merely meant that it referred to certain persons living in, and entitled to the privileges of, the Cinque Port. One of the first documents in the reign of Henry the Second, and also one in the reign of Richard the First, make no distinction of privileges. Both docu ments are worded—" We give and grant unto the good men of the ancient town of Rye," and then sets forth certain privileges to which the resident inhabitants are entitled. The Learned Counsel then went into a long argument, and contended that freeman and Baron, in the ancient Charter, were synonimous. He was address ing the Committee when our Reporter left.

We regret to learn that the embarrassments of the Horticultural Society have induced them to enter into competition with the market gardeners in the sale of their produce---a measure quite foreign, we imagine, to the original object of their establishment. THE ZOOLOGICAL SOCIETY.—The annual meeting of this Society was held on Monday, in the house of the Horticultural Society, in Regent-street. Among the distinguished persons present were, the Duke of So ➢fEIISF.T, the Earls of ESSEX and CARNARYON, Lord AUCKLAND, Lord STANLEY, Sir G. STAUNTON, Bart., &c. In the absence of the Marquis of LANSDOWNE, the Duke of SOMERSET took the Chair. From the report of the auditors appointed to examine into the state of the Society's affairs, it appeared that the receipts for the past year were 16,347/. 125., arising from the subscriptions of members, admission fees of visitors to the Museum, &c. The amount in the banker's hands i n February was 2001. The supposed value of the Society's assets was 6,000/., inclusive of the farm at Kingston, which had cost about 11,000/, The report eulogized the conduct of Mr. SA BINE, the Treasurer, to whom it was stated that the So ciety was indebted, in a great measure, for its prosperity. The report of the Council stated that an arrangement has been made with the Commissioners of Woods and Forests for the ground which the Society required, viz. 1,200 feet frontage at a rent of 400/. per annum. The report further announced Mr. SABINE'S intention to resign. The expenses of the farm at Kingston were to be greatly reduced, and it was intended to breed and rear rare and new species of birds, quadrupeds, and fishes at that esta blishment. It was also stated that 200,000 pei•sous had visited the Gardens in the Regent's Park last year, and that upwards of 3,000/, had been invested in the funds. The ballot for officers then took place, and the meeting adjourned. SUICIDE.—Last evening an inquisition was taken before Mr. PAYNE, the Coroner for the city, and a highly respectable Jury, at Dolly's chop-house, Newgate-street, on view of the body of Mrs. SUSANNAH BEAN, ;•:ho destroyed herself by throwing herself from the top of her house in St. Paul's Church-yard. After hearing evidence, the Jury returned a verdict—" That the deceasel occasioned her own death by precipitating herself from a window, while in a state of temporary delirium, pro duced by bodily illness." Yesterday evening an inquest was held at the Red Cow public-house, Mile-end •roatl, before L. W. Urtwity, Esq., on view of the remains of GEORGE Vauctfa 14, Esq., aged 86. From the evidence it ap- peared that the deceased, a gentleman possessed of consi derable genius as a mechanist, had been for se,reral years engaged in the invention and completion of an engine on a new principle. Having finished it on Saturday last, Ee set it up to try its practical effects, and not finding this t ourt ia exactly to come u p to his expectation, he became most de, spendi ng , an d in the course of the evening, while alone i n his bed-room, he placed the muzzle of a pistol, heavily loaded with ball, in his mo uth, an d , discharging, it, blew . tura T ll h y o ej f u a r n y ir it ritable disposition , a n d easily excited, retur ne d a ver di c t o f a suicide, committed while insane." thegreater further that his h face edeceasedabt the waso o naturally SPORTING-(RECEIVED THIS DAY CHESTER RACES, 1830.

Beagle and Laurie Todd crept up to their horses, and, at the distance chair, Birmingham was beat. Birmingham carried Bst. 41b., not being entitled to the al lowance claimed (31b.)

Nothing of any public interest took place in any of the Law Courts, this morning, up to the time of our going to press. At the late Sessions for the town of Reading, there was not a single prisoner to try, nor any judicial business to transact. We saw with great pleasure, in the list of sold pictures, at the exhibition just closed at the British Insti tution, that one had been purchased by the Corporation of Bristol. We understand it is for an altar-piece, for their Mayor's Chapel, which they are refitting. We hail the example of this ancient and opulent city, in thus encou raging living talent in that class of art which affords scope for the noblest energies of the pencil, and we trust it Vi ill be followed by other cities and towns where opportunities offer of placing pictures in their public edifices. This pic ture—a dead Christ, surrounded by his sorrowing friends —is painted by that eminent artist, Mr. JOHN Kixc• By an account laid before the House of Com mons it appears that the gross amount of the Land Tax an I Assessed Taxes of Scotland, for the year ending sth January, 1830, was— Land Tax for the Counties £24,907 19 0,4 Assessed TaXes Land Tax for Burghs Assessed Taxes In all £279,437 16 5►4 For the same period, the Assessed Taxes for Edinburgh amounted to £5,682 19 6 And for Glasgow to 16,792 13 It is inconceivable how the Assessed Taxes of Glasgow should so greatly exceed in amount those of Edinburgh, which is almost as large a city, and inhabited by classes of persons who, if not so opulent as the commercial populace tion of Glasgow, live seemingly more within the scope of the Assessed Taxes. We have received a letter from a friend of Dr. Bnattows, accusing us of having ruined the reputa tion of the Doctor, and calling upon us to retract the opinion which we had expressed of his conduct. This letter is accompanied by a number of a Medical Journal, in which the Doctor's defensive letter to Sir ElFainY HALFORD is favourably reviewed ; and it is broadly insi nuated, that in malcing the amende honoraide we could not do better than adopt the language of tho reviewer,—. We at once deny the charge, and decline the proposal. If the reputation of Dr. Buaxows has suffered in the eases of ANDERDON and DAVIES, he has himself to blame, and not us. As soon as his pamphlet appeared, in explanation of the latter case, we allowed that he had been wronged by the treatment to which he had been subject before the Comtnissioners of Lunacy, and we inserted the substance of his defenoe in our columns. What more could be ex pected from our candour. With regard to his conduct in the affair of ANDERDON, we latterly said nothing. The charge of the Learned Judge, and the verdict of the Jury, on the late trial at Westminster, would have rendered aggravation cruel and defence useless. We know nothing privately of Dr. Buastows, and could not possibly feel any desire to wound his reputation, or to injure his prac tice. In the case of DAVIES, his defence would have triumphed over popular prejudice, had it not been counter acted by the verdict in the case of ANDERDON. Even in the latter instance, it would probably be hard that an act of cireles,ness, unconnected with any defect of professional skid or assiduity, and rendered mischievous chiefly through the employment of agents of whose conduct he was not previously aware, should be visited with such a falling off in his practice as our correspondent describes.— Times. At the London Adjourned Sessions yesterday a well-known pilferer of graves. named CLARK . ; was tried upon an indictment, charging him with having stolen the body of a dead child, aged about four years, which had been under the care of a nurse named Marty HOPKINS The facts which came out in evidence were as follow : —The deceased was the daughter of a woman of the town, residing in Shire-lane, and had been kept at the nurse's lodging, which was in the same neighbourhood. She died on a Friday, and CLARKE, whose ears were de s&ribed as " quick to the toll of the passing bell," paid the nurse a vi•it the next morning, under pretence of hiring a cellar under the house. He took occasion to notice the poor woman's son, said it was a pity to see the boy idle, and that he should have immediate employment, and called again with evidences of still stronger interest in favour of the family, "By the way," said he, " I under stand you have had a death lately."—." Yes, Sir," said the nurse, " a poor little girl is departed."—" Poor little dear," cried the snatcher, " I should like to look at the little innocent." He was forthwith led into the front parlour, where the hotly lay in a coffin, and observing that its position was favourable to his intentions, he sympa thised with the nurse, and said, " We must all come to this sooner or later," and then he went out to get a half pint of summat to comfort them. The nurse disposed of a glass, which presently set her in a profound sleep, and when she awoke the body of the babe was gone. It ap peared that the snatcher, after having quitted the house, as if for good, returned, and, opening the parlour w, indow, hooked out with a stick the corpse of the child, and went off with it towards a market that is open at all hours, near Bridgewater-square ; however, a police officer, who knew his trade, laid hands upon him, telling him he was wanted. The snatcher then threw down the child, and took to his heels, but was apprehended, and lodged in the Compter.—The Jury returned a verdict ,0f._•q,, 1 4V, but some of them audibly spoke of reconaipeudink_, p r y .oner to mercy ; but made no appetiqatVii) 'that effect, —The RECORDER sentenced • the 'priioner coned for the spaced six calendar months: ~,~~ P. , H.
