It is with no small satisfaction that we have perused the Message of the PRESIDENT of the Un ited States, to the Senate and House of Re presentatives, given in another part of The ' 3 ". It is long, but no one can read it and say that it is too long. Just such reports as the directors of a mercantile association draw up of t heir transactions to lay before their constituents, are _ the Messages of the PRESIDENT of the United States to Congress ; and just such re ports ought to be our KING'S Speeches on the Opening of Parliament. During the long reign of the Tories, the KING'S Speech sank to a mere form, as the representation of the people was fast doing. Since Lord GREY'S ac cession to power, the KING'S Speech has dealt somewhat less in generalities ; but it is yet far from the document it ought to b e , ---a full, official statement of the national af fairs during the past year,—a steward's account °f his stewardship ; but as Parliamentary re presentation has now become a reality, as the res ponsibility of Ministers is now something more tha n nominal, as the word Minister is now Unde rstood not to mean master but servant, we a rtis t th at suc h a state of things will speedily ari se as will suit the altered relations of the go vernors and the governed. 'r ho PRESIDENT, after detailing the state of ther eign intercourse of the Union with different fo. t opic nations, comes to home affairs; and the first of Ple , he touches upon, under this head, is that sel tne national debt. We cannot deny our th" t he pleasure of quoting his summary upon c\ P °i nt• He says : th e 13 ° . the lat of January next the entire public debt of to wit 4l ted States, funded and unfunded, will be reduced 2 227 b 1 4 a fraction of seven millions of dollars; of whiela let of 363 dollars are not of right redeemable until the 24 of 1 3 ' n uarY, 1834, and 4,735,296 dollars not until the "444ary, 1835, The Commissioners of the Sinking Fund, however, being invested with full authority to pur chase the debt at the market price, and the meats of the Treasury being ample, it may he hoped the whole will b e extinguished within the year 1833." The topic, however, of greatest interest to this country is that of free trade. The American Tariff has always been referred to by the advo cates of the restrictive system, as a fit example for us to follow. The country gentlemen (we mean those few who ever troubled themselves with acquiring any information whatever upon the subject) and the manufacturers, who, in the advocacy of a fancied self-interest, sided with them, have looked to it as a model of commercial law. Behold this idol is about to be cast down by the very hands which raised it. From a wish to conciliate the advocates of the Tariff, we sup pose, General .TAcicsoN has said so much upon the subject as to be in parts rather obscure, but there is no mistaking his intentions. He says— " That manufactures adequate to the supply of our do comic consumption would, in the abstract, be beneficial to our country there is no reason to doubt; and to effect their establishment there is, perhaps, no American citizen who would not for a while be willing to pay a higher price for them. But for this purpose it is presumed that a tariff of high duties, designed for perpetual protection, has entered into the minds of but few of our statesmen• The most they have anticipated is a temporary and gene rally incidental protection, which they maintain has the effect to reduce the price by domestic competition below that of the foreign articletcxperience, however, our best guide on this as on other subjects, makes it doubt ful whether the advantages of this system are not coun terbalanced by many evils, and whether it does not tend , 1 to beget in the minds of a large portion of our country men a spirit of discontent and jealousy dangerous to the stability of the Union." The idea of even temporary protection is here scouted ; and as General JACKSON has been again elected to the Presidential Chair, being known to entertain these sentiments, we may take them as those .of the majority of the Union. He grants, that regard for vested in terests should induce them to refrain from suddenly reducing their restrictive duties, but adds, " But those who have vested their capital in manufacturing establishments cannot expect that the people will continue permanently to pay high taxes for their benefit, when the money is not required for any legitimate pur pose in the administration of the Government." Our corn, our tea, and other monopolists require the people of this country to be taxed for their sole benefit, without any pretence of sharing the tax with the Government; the Government only getting a tax when as much has been squeezed from the people as possible. Let them, how ever, be assured, that the great majority of the people of this country have more than began to see the true grounds on which these monopolies stand, and will suffer them with as little patience as the people of America. We see that some of our Conservative Con temporaries contemplate the possibility of the Tariff being continued, in spite of the open hostility of the Southern States, and General JACKSON'S evident desire to yield to their wishes; but such an idea can only be entertained for a mo ment by`the abetters of a Manchester massacre. Just demands are not met by thebayonet in Ame rica, but concession and the fate of the Tariff may be looked upon as sealed. A Morning Contemporary of this day notices the absurd rumour which the Tories have put in circulation, for the hundredth time, that the LORD CHANCELLOR is become a Conservative, and that he is about to head a party in opposition to Earl GREY. This rumour is so exquisitely ridiculous, that to notice it at all is almost like destroying a monster and then beating it. Lord BROUGHAM, so far from having imbibed Con servative principles, is at this moment actively engaged in preparing measures for the comple tion of those Reforms which he has already coin menced, and also in devising, in concurrence with Earl GREY, the means of Reforming the Church. When the Tories call Lord BROUGHAM a Conservative, they apply the term in the sense in which it is applicable to themselves. In that sense we are sure Lord BROUGHAM would feel disgraced by the name. He avows his attachment to Monarchy, and would preserve all our Mo narchical Institutions; but all who know him state that he would preserve them free from the tinsel and gewgaw by which they are bedizened, and which are calculated to root out inculcated respect for Monarchy from every reflecting mina. So far as the retention of Monarchy, without its abuses, goes, Lord BROUGHAM is a ,Conser vative as strong, or stronger, perhaps, than those who make such an outcry of their attachment to the Throne. Lord BROUGHAM would also preserve the Church from destruction ; but it must he a Reformed Church, and not an esta blishment fell of cankers, like that with which the nation is burdened and oppressed. So far Lord BROUGHAM is a Conservative, as regards the Church, as well as the Crown. He is a Conservative, also, as regards the profession of which he is at the head ; but what would he preserve ? his blots and blemishes of the law ? No ; he would make law simple, and justice cheap. He would make the profession honour able, and render it as useful to society as it is now, in too many instances, the contrary in a very high degree. Judging by the past conduct o f Lord BROUGHAM, no man of common honesty and impartiality will say that he will abandon the political faith which has made him what he is ; but, judging of him also as a man of sagacity (and we think the world will allow that he is not a fool), we ask whether, with the signs of the times before his face, the LORD CHANCELLOR is a man to turn round upon his professions, and court disgrace and infamy by attaching himself to a faction which is at its last gasp ? No letters have been received from Oporto, at the Portuguese Embassy, by the vessel which left that city on the 25th ult. The private ac counts which have reached us, state that the sortie on the Villa Nova side had been par tially successful, and that, a plentiful supply of provisions having arrived, the troops were in good spirits, and impatient of being cooped up in Oporto, as they felt themselves equal to cope with the enemy in the field. The motive assigned for this long inaction was the expected arrival of a French General of experience, but this had not given general satisfaction, as the Portuguese troops dislike serving under French officers. Many of the Portuguese officers had represented to Don PEnno, that, having the command in chief in his own person, and being surrou n d e d by British officers of note, he would do better to commence offensive operations without a French General than with one ; but other advice had prevailed. It was an nounced, however, that General SoLIGNAC was not appointed to the chief command, but merely as Aide-de-Camp to the EMPEROR, who would retain the command of the army, and avail himself of the joint experience of General SOLIGNAC, the Duke of TERCEIRA, and Sir JOHN M. DOYLE ; the latter of whom, it appears, has remonstrated strongly against the indolence of the Portuguese Staff. It was stated in Oporto, at the date of these accounts, that two corps, amounting to 3,000 men, were ready in England and France to set out on an expedition of great importance, and which would operate as a division in favour of Don PEDRO. We find upon inquiry here that this statement was well founded, but it would be improper at present to communicate the particulars, lest premature publicity should injure the Constitutional cause. An express has been received from Paris, bringing the Papers of Monday, and the Mes sager des Clzanzbres, dated yesterday. They are principally filled with accounts of the return of the French army from Belgium, and comments on the sudden departure from Paris of Count Pozzo DI BORGO, the Russian Ambassador, for London. The Opposition Journals are very violent in their remarks against the Sonic Administration. They accuse it of the basest truckling to the Northern Powers, and to the British Cabinet, by withdrawing their troops from Belgium before the question is finally settled, giving the King of HOLLAND time, and every means, to invadeßel gium, so as to cause a general war. The conduct of Ministers in having expelled the leaders of the Polish Committee from Paris, who relied on meeting with an asylum from the :tyranny and persecutions of the Autocrat,has caused the greatest feeling against them, as it is another proof of the Juste-milieu and Doctrinnaire weakness. The departure of Count Pozzo DI BORGO is considered in Paris to be for the purpose of entering into a treaty with England to allow Russia to support the Sultan against the PACHA, with a strong military force, which is to march immediately upon Constantinople. Whether the British Government will submit to the ambition of the northern despot will shortly be known. England and France strongly allied can, at all times, bid defiance to the ambitious views of the northern Powers. Several interviews have lately taken place be tween the Austrian Ambassador and the Duke de BROGLIE, Minister for Foreign Affairs, for the immediate release of the Duchess of BERRY from her captivity at the Chateau de Blaye, on condition that she shall either leave for Vienna or Naples, and the Emperor of AUSTRIA would become as a security, that she shall not again disturb the French Government. It is said that Ministers have partially pro mised to comply with this request if they can do it without creating any violent public feeling ; this they are in hopes of overcoming, as there never was a national hatred against that romantic Princess. She was more pitied than any one of the fallen dynasty at the imbecile acts of the infatuated CHARLES X., which de prived her son of the throne. Great allowance is made for the feelings of a mother. Great preparations are making in Paris to commemorate the new year : the shops present a gayety seldom to be seen. The KING was to receive the whole of the corps diplonzatique and the Foreign Ministers on Tuesday. A grand review was also to take place in the Place du Carousel, on the occasion of the return of the Dukes of ORLEANS and Nuntourts, who look extremely well after their military excursion to the Citadel of Antwerp. Lours PHILIP will positively leave Paris on Friday, for the Northern frontier, to review the troops, in company with the Duke of OR LEANS, who is extremely popular with the army. It was reported on Monday that Prince TAL LEYRAND, the French Ambassador in London, was going to be replaced : it is said that the request was first made by the Prince himself, who feels that age is growing fast upon him. The news from Spain states that the QUEEN was most indefatigable in her exertions. Paris continues tranquil, and the Funds, notwithstanding the reports of war, are pretty steady.

BATTLE OF THE " NATIONAL UNIONS" IN DUBLIN. Strange doings here between the National Political and its rival, the National Trades' Political, concerning the chairing of the Repeal Members for the city of Dublin. The National Political protest against the chairing as a foolish, expensive, and inexpedient mummery; but their High Mightinesses the Trades, having set their hearts upon a public exhibition of what they modestly term their tri umph, have resolved upon " the grandest chairing ever witnessed in Dublin or any where else," although they have not a single farthing in the treasury to pay their debts. For some days there has been tuna wrang ling upon the matter, and the parties are now at open war. The' Conservatives and Repealers do not hate one another half so cordially as the two Po liticals. There was a rattling iow between them yester day evening in the Corn Exchange. By an arrangement of Mr. O'Connell, the Trades have a right of admission to the other political on payment of a shilling each, and this privilege they are now using for the purpose of overbearing their rival, and rendering it a perfect nullity. Nearly two hundred of them entered the Corn Exchange yesterday, and popped a Mr. Marcus Hickey into the chair, for the pur pose of passing a resolution in favour of a chairing, and of voting the necessary funds to pay the expenses. Some members of the National Political happened to be pre sent, and called upon the Secretary, Mr. Dwyer, to prevent the meeting. Mr. Dwyer entered the room and commanded Mr. Hickey to quit the chair, as no meeting was advertised for that day. A violent con tention here arose. A Mr. Slevin, the most violent de magogue in the Trades', who seconded the nomination of Mr. Ruthven, gave vent to his indignation, and denomi nated the National Political as a nominal and powerless political society, whilst the Trades' were omnipotent. Mr. John Reynolds vindicated the National Political, and spoke his sentiments on the indecent conduct of Slevin and his adherents; whereupon Slevin threatened to throw him out of the window ! After a dreadful altercation, Hickey left the chair—the meeting was put an end to ; but the Trades', on leaving the room, threatened to have it all their own way at the meeting this day. Before de parting, Slevin stated his determination to propose, in the Trades' Union, a vote of censure upon Mr. 0' Connell, ifhe should refuse to accept the chairing 1 Rare sport is expected at the meeting to-day. I shall furnish you with a sketch to-morrow. THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY). COURT CIRCULAR.

Our columns are crowded this evening with docu ments of high moment to the people of this nation. South Carolina has boldly taken her stand ; the rubicon is passed ; the State has set herself in array against the national Government in the most solemn and imposing manner ; and, as they do not hesitate to say in a manner that is irrevocable, unless, like cravens, the other twenty two States are to he bullied into submission to South Carolina, the Act of the Convention will he followed up by the State Government. (From the Commercial Advertiser of Dec. 4.) The Charlestown Mercury ridicules the idea of the em ployment of force on either side in the way of mellifica. tion. It says things are going on at Charlestown very peacefully, and as to the reprt that the President had or dered two companies of artillery to that city, the Mercury is almost disposed to consider it a hoax. Montreal papers to December 2, and Quebec papers to December 2, have been received at the North and South American Coffee-house. The Quebec papers deny that there is a political party in lower Canada, including seve ral Members of the House Gi Assembly, who are opposed to prevent emigration. Total number of migrants arrived at Quebec this sea son, to Nov. 26, ;s 51,728. A Malta m...il has arrilred, smiled on the 13th of ID.. cember, Gibraltar, 24th of December, and Cadiz, Dec. 25. THE FUNDS. The only arrival this morning of any consequence is the New York papers, containing the President's speech, published in the Morning Journals : it is a long and in teresting document, and very favourable to the interest of that Republic, with the exception of one point, the hostile state of Charlestown, caused by the late Tariff, and which, is supposed it will be amicably settled. It is again positively stated, that fresh negotiations are going to be entered into with the Dutch Government. Consols, which left off yesterday 86h for the Account, opened at the same price this morning ; since which the Market has not been so good, but they are at present again 861, owing, it is supposed, to a sale for French account. The arrival of Couut Pezzo di Borgo is expected in the course of this day, and his mission to this country causes some excitement. We again hear it is of a political nature. In the Foreign Market nothing doing as yet. HALF-PAST ONE. We understand from good authority that our Ministers, in Junction with the Cabinet of France, are now occupied in treating with the King of Holland to bring the Dutch affairs to an amicable conclusion. It is expected they will succeed. The Funds continue steady with a good Market. Con sols have been done at 861 ; at present they may be quoted 86,i- to 4. A great deal of business has been done, and purchases to a large amount have taken place. In the Foreign Market the chief speculation has been in Dutch Stock with an improvement. The price is 421 ex div. In other Foreign Securities little doing. No further news from Portugal. THREE O'CLOCK Consols for the Account, 86i I. CLOSING PRICES.—FOUR O'CLOCK.

William Reynold was indicted for assaulting Thomas Sapwell, one of the constables belongin g to the Mansion house, on the 2d of October last. It appeared from the evidence of Sapwell, and other City officers, who witnessed the transaction, that the prisoner, having endeavoured to obtain a situation at a house in Bishopsgate.street, by means of a fictitious character, had been brought before the Lord Mayor, and convicted of the offence. On being taken by Sapwell to the Strongroom of the Mansion the assault was committed, the prisoner declaring the officer should not take him to prison, and endeavouring to prevent him from so doing by striking and kicking him on the eyes. The case was clearly proved against the prisoner, whom the Jury found Guilty, and the Court sentenced him to four months' imprisonment in Giltspur-street Compter. The trial of Solomon and David Marks, for assaulting an officer named Cole, at the New City Theatre, by means of which his leg was broken, was proceeding when our Reporter left. We have already given the particulars of this case in our Guildhall report. SURREY SESSIONS.-(THIS DAY.) Jane Butler, a young woman, aged 21, was indicted for stealing two 101. notes, the property of John Wallace. The prosecutor stated that be was shopman with Mr. Puzey, a draper in Croydon, with whom the prisoner lived as servant. He had two notes for 101. which he kept in a chest in his bed-room ; he saw them safe there on Tuesday the ISth December. On Thursday he left his keys by mistake in the chest, and on the Sunday be missed the two notes. He suspected the prisoner, who had left her place in the meantime; he gave information to the officer. Eliza Baker was shopwoman with Mr. Grey, a draper, in Croydon. On the 22d December the prisoner came into her master's shop and bought a variety of articles for which she tendered a 101. note in payment. Witness gave her the change, and marked the note with the name of " Graves Darking," which the prisoner gave as her name. The note was afterwards given to the officer. James Coltman was an officer in Croydon. In conse quence of information given him by the prosecutor, he ap prehended the prisoner, and on searching her boxes, in one he found the blue bag which he produced, and in it was a 101. note, which be also produced. The other note he had was given him by Miss Baker. The prosecutor identified both the notes as his property —he had marked them when he got them. The Jury instantly returned a verdict of Guilty. The CHAIRMAN regretted that the law now left no discretion with the Court, as to the punishment for the offence of which she had been convicted. It was his duty to sentence her to be transported for life. The prisoner who was much affected during the trial, fainted on sentence being pronounced. Two young boys, named Wright and Slater, were convicted of stealing a pair of buots, value 7s. Wright was sentenced to seven days' hard labour, and to be once privately whipped. Slater, who had been convicted of felony at the December Sessions, teas sentenced to be transported for 14 , years. LAW NOTICES. ECCLESIASTICAL COURTS.

Indeed, when we consider the varied and arduous duties of a sea man—the dangers to which he is perpetually exposed— the new scenes and new faces that be continually encoun ters, the trying difficulties he experiences when thrown on his own resources afar from his native land—we cannot but contemplate his career with an eye of peculiar interest and curiosity. Hence we are not surprised at the extra. ordinary effect produced by the Life of a Sailor,' just published, written as it is by one who has seen so much service."—Bath Chronicle. There were lately dug up at Masilion, Starke county, State of Ohio, two large tusks, measuring each nine feet six inches in length, and eight inches in dia meter. The weight of one was as much as two men could lift. The outside covering was as firm and as hard as ivory, but the inner parts were considerably decayed. They were found in a swamp, about two feet below the surface of the ground, and were similar to those found some time ago at Bone Lick, in Kentucky, the size of which animal, from the bones found, was at least sixty feet in length, and twenty-two feet in height, and twelve across the hips. Each tooth found weighed eleven pounds. This animal as much surpasses the mammoth as the ele phant does the ox. We were shown a portion of one of the tusk. by J. W. SACAT lf of this place, who brought the same from Ohio.— Clearfield Banner. DREADFUL OUTRAGE AND RAPE,--We never had to relate a more desperate attempt at, and, in fact, an actual commission of a the crime of rape, than has occurred in the neighbourhood of Whitby. On Monday, the 3d inst., a fellow, dressed in the ragged apparel of a shipwrecked sailor, brutally attacked a defenceless female, aged 75, at a place called Upgang-lane, on the west side of the town. Information was that night given to Mr. WILKINSON, the police-officer, who searched every spot likely to be the resort of such people, but without effect. On the following day, this monster knocked another woman down, named MITCHELSON, and endevoured to effect his horrid purpose, in which he failed. The next morning, about half-past eleven, this brute in human shape violently attacked a married woman, named HOLSEY, of Robin Hood's Bay, aged fifty years, near to the New Gardens, about half a mile from Whitby, and he finally accomplished his brutal design, ad then absconded towards the abbey, where it is supposed be secreted himself. Mr. WrrxiNsox had then further information respecting this fellow, which agreed with that already given, and he directly commeteed an other active search of the abbey, accompanied by a num ber of sailors, who ransacked the ruins,--and they jointly extended themselves on the sea-cliffs and woods, in the vicinity, but without success. At length the fellow made his appearance on the bridge, where Mr. WaraNsoN was stationed, who apprehended him on suspicion, and con veyed him to one of the females, named CARL, Wlto posi tively swore to his person. Mr. W. proceeded to Robin Hood's Bay, the residence of Mrs. 11:.) , :.5Ev, who, on the Saturday following, swore to his identity, and the com mission of the actual crime. After the prisoner's appre hension, a woman, called WARD S complained of her be ing knocked down and ill-used, en the sands, by this ruffian. The prisoner gave the name of HosE, and said he was a native of F:ssex; he seems about 20 years of age, and is quite a stranger in Whitby, and had recently ar rived in a small vessel,—sleeping on board at nights, and thereby escaping Mr. WrucitisoN's vigilance. He has since been committed for the capital offence, to take his trial at the assizes.-Fork Courant. IN TERM. POLICE INTELLIGENCE; HATTON-GARDEN. Yesterday Richard Wedgebury, an elderly man, em ployed by the inhabitants of Cornelia-terrace, Barnsbury p4rk, Islington, was charged under the following dis graceful circumstances : Maria Wheeler, a well-looking girl, 15 years of age, stated that on Monday evening her master and mistress went out to pas' the night with some friends, leaving her at borne to take care of the children. At about two o'clock in the morning, hearing a noise at the door, and thinking it was her mistress, she went up stairs to open the door, when the prisoner pushed himself by her into the parlour, and, seizing bold of her, conducted himself in a moat improper manner, and kissed her; she struggled with him and called for assistance, when he made an effort to throw her upon the sofa, but she got away and ran nto the kitchen. The prisoner remained in the parlour about ten minutes, when he called out " Good bye," and quitted the place. On proceeding to the parlour she ascertained that the prisoner had broken open a cupboard, from which he had stolen a plum-pudding and a German sausage. Her master and mistress returned home at three o'clock, and she informed them of the prisoner's mis conduct, and he had been taken into custody. Mrs. Mary Ann Spiller, of No. 6, Cornelia-terrace, Barnsbury-park, stated that the prisoner was employed by the inhabitants of the neighbourhood, which was very solitary, to protect their servants and property, and was thought to be a respectable trustworthy person. On being informed by the last witness of his infamous con.. duct, she caused his apprehension. Swaine, 191, N, apprehended the prisoner while he was on duty. He was sitting on the step of a door, eating the German sausage (now produced). On search ing him he found part of the plum-pudding which had been stolen from Mrs. Spiller's house. The prisoner did not deny the charge, but treated it with great indifference. Mr. Sergeant SELLON said that his conduct had been most scandalous, and he was committed to take his trial at the sessions. Waddington said that the prisoner had been charged at that office with theft. James Burnett, Joseph Sanderson, and John Ducket, were charged with having committed a daring burglary in the house of Mr. Pitman, grocer, of 57, Tottenham court-road, and stealing jewellery, watches, and other property to a considerable amount. The 'prisoners were separately questioned, and they gave most confused and contradictory answers ; they were re manded, in order that the stolen property might be traced. QUEEN-SQUARE. BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE,— Christopher Collins, a private in the Scotch Fusileer Guards, was brought up in the custody of a police constable of the A division, and placed at the bar before Mr. WHITE, charged with obtaining money from a young servant girl named Elizabeth Symonds, living in the service of a family in Palace -street, Pimlico. The complainant, a simple look ing young girl, about nineteen years of age, became ac quainted with the prisoner about a twelvemonth ago; he had constantly visited her while in service, and she became much attached to him, and he at last made her a proposal of marriage, which she accepted. The banns were put up accordingly in Lambeth church, and the mar. riage day was fixed for last Thursday. In the morning every thing was provided, and she give the prisoner the money to buy the ring, as he said he had no money. They arrivtd at the church rather before the usual time, and the whole bridal party went into a public-house opposite the church and regaled themselves with rum, for which she paid. Before they went into church the soldier told her that he had no money to pay the fees, and she handed to him 14s. for the purpose. The prisoner conducted himself in church in a very unbecoming manner, and began to laugh. The clergyman remonstrated with him on the impropriety of his conduct, and at last refused to marry them, and said that they must come another day when the prisoner could conduct himself better. She was greatly disappointed, and they left the church together. The prisoner declared that he would never go to the church again; and although she repeatedly urged him to fulfil his promise and marry ber, he refused. She asked him to give back the money she had given him to pay the marriage fees, but he only treated her with contempt. Mr. WHITS said, that it could only be considered as a debt, and recommended her to go to the Court of Request and summons him for the money. The prisoner was then discharged. MARY LEB ONE. A very young woman, named Jane Scrpsford,waq brought before Mr. RAWLINSON on Monday, by the policeman D, 25, being found at midnight on Saturday last, in Maryle bone-lane, near the station-house, destitute and houseless, when she stated that she had been to the workhouse that day, hut could get no relief, and that she was turned by her betrayer, whilst in an advanced state of pregnancy, out into the street. After he had put a few questions to her, the Magistrate told the policeman to take the unfortunate girl over to the workhouse, and have the child beforehand sworn to the re. puted father, that he might forthwith be taken intocustody. The policeman D, 25, soon returned from the work house, where he left Sapeford, to assure the Magistrate that his wishes would be complied with respecting her. Yesterday the Marylebone parochial messenger (T. Read) brought Joseph Fuett, with Jane Sapsford, in custody to this office, she having sworn her forthcoming child to Fuett, as the father, at the workhouse. The young woman now repeated with tears what s!e had stated on Monday as to Fuett's having beat her, and turned her into the street, because she refused to take poison in her present state. Joseph Fuett had been keeping her for some time, and would still have kept her it she had behaved well, and he denied that he urged her to take poison. Mr. RAWLINSON told him that the victim of his strata gems was now chargeable on the parish, and inquired what he could allow for supporting Ler? Fuett would allow no pay towards the support of the girl, aud, in default of finding bail, he was committed to the New Prison, Clerkenwell, whilst the girl Sapsford was sent back to the workhouse. THAMES POLICE. AN OLD SlNNER.—.Yesterday Margaret Chapman and Mary Smith, two young cyprians of the pave, were charged before Mr. BALLANTINE with stealing a valuable silver watch and appendages from Captain John Patrick, the master of the Friends, a collier, lying off Blackwall. The appearance of the Captain, a very fat and venerable looking old man, who leant upon a stick for support, and could not be less than seventy years of age, in connexion with such a charge excited much surprise. He stated, that he was on his way home to No. 3, Prospect-plate, Stepney, at a late hour on Monday night, when he fell in with Chapman in R a t c liff e -hi g h way , an d f e ll i n l ove w i th her.—(Loud laughter.) The old veteran, who said it was no laughing matter, continued. He treated her with lots of grog, and she inveigled him into a house. He was certain he bad his watch when he entered, for ho pulled it out to see what time it WEL +. On enterin g th e house be met with Smith, and gave her money to procure some liquor while he had some innocent conversation with Chapman.--(Laughter.) When Smith returned he had some innocent conversation with both.—(lncreased laugh. ter.) In conclusion, the plaintiff found Jae had lost his watch, and called in the police. Mr. BALLANTINE committed Chapman for the rohbe; A DOUBLE DISPATCH AND NO ADPITIONAL Cita AGE. —On Sunday next, Jan. 6 ,1 8 :3 5 t, an Extra Sheet of the Weekly Dispatch will's published, as „ om pl e t e Key to the First Reformed Parliament.
