MEMOIRS OF THE DUCHESS OF AB RANTES, VOL. Who has not passed some of the most agreeable hours of his life in lounging over these gracernl records of an elegant epoch ? There is a richness and raciness about Madame JUNOT'S pictures—she de scribes all that charmed her with such a brusque and pre sent energy—that notwithstanding the trace of disappoint m,,nt that here and there appears, you see her throughout her work as the " Allegro" of Malmaison rather than the " Penserosa" of Versailles. This identity with the past is no slight accomplishment in a memorialist; but this is not all ; the subject -matter itself of these Memoirs is one which, if treated with common ability, could not fail to at tract attention."--Nets Monthly Magazine. IMMENSE SHAFT.—During the week we have been favoured with a sight of an imtnense iron shaft, which has been forged at the iron foundry of Mr. Wm. DEAN, Little Bolton. It is in one piece, and weighs fifty seven hundred weight. It measures 51 feet in length, and is S inches diameter at the base, and S at the other end. It is to be applied to the turning of 12 rag machines in an extensive paper manufactory in this neighbourhood ; and the weight of wheels which will he placed upon it will be upwards of twelve tons. It is one of the largest shafts ever forged in this neighbourhood.—Bollon Chron. On Saturday an inquest was held on the body of Mr. JOSEPH HAitnoun, aged 49, who was found drowned in the Serpentine river, on Friday. The de ceased was firmeely coachman to the late Lord CASTLE.. REACH, and after the death of that nobleman became landlord of the Rose and Punch Bowl, Mile End-road, but left it in embarrassed circumstances, about two months since. On Wednesday, he left home for the purpose of calling upon a man name d H ICKS , an d on F r iday was found in the ri ver w i t h out hi s coat an d no mone y in 111, pockets. There w as no ev id ence to prove h ow the de ceased came in the water. Verdict—Found drowned. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL now showed cause against the rule. Mr. Scales had been first elected Al derman of this Ward in 1831,by the inhabitants of the Ward, but the Court of the Lord Mayor and Alder men refused to admit him. Mr. Scales then applied for a Mandamus, and to that Mandamus the Court of the Lord Mayor and Aldermen made a return, that they had adjudicated that Mr. Scales was an unfit person to support the dignity and to discharge the duties of an Alderman, and that return had been held good. Mr. Scales, at the next election, was a candidate along with a Mr. Hughes, and was again elected by a majority of votes, but the Court again refused to admit him, and now again Mr. Scales ap plied for another Mandamus, to which the same re turn would be made; and, therefore, it would be nugatory to make this rule absolute. The only course for Mr. Scales to take was, to bring an action against the defendants for a false return. The de fendants had, on the 3d of January, 1832, again ad judicated that Mr. Scales was an unfit person to , upport the dignity and discharge the duties of Al derman of London, and that must be the return. LORD CHIEF JUSTICE—But the affidavits did not state that on the 3d of January, 1832, the Court of Aldermen had examined any new evidence as to the unfitness, and a man might be unfit at one time and perfectly fit at another, and this was the ground for granting the rule. Mr. LAW and Mr. FOLLETT addressed the Court on the same side with the SOLICITOR, GENERAL, and contended that the Court of Aldermen was not bound to go into any further evidence, but was en titled to decide on the competency at its own discretion. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE and the rest of the Court were of opinion that the rule ought to be made absolute, in order that Mr. Scales might have a return on this new state of things.—Rule absolute. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, JAN. 12. CURIOUS CASE OF TRESPASS—BARLOW V. RHODES. This was an action of trespass, for breaking and entering a certain passage, alleged in the declaration to be the freehold of the plaintiff. The defendant pleaded a special justification, claiming a right of way over the passage in question. The case was tried at the last assizes for York, before Mr. Baron Bolland, when it appeared that the property was situated in the town of Wetherby, which had for merly belonged to the Duke of Devonshire. In 1824, it was resolved by the Duke to sell that part of his property by public auction , and pl ans were made out and published, dividing it into separate lots. The lot purchased by the plaintiff was lot 20, that bought by the defendant was lot 24. The sale took place about May, 1825, and the defendant alleged that he had bought the property under the description of the plan published in the latter part of 1824. For the plaintiff it was insisted that there had been a new description given of the property, and that under that new description the sale had taken place. There had been also conveyances of the different lots executed, and,the conveyanc e made to the defendant, gave him lot 24, " bounded on the the north by lot 20, together with all ways, &c., thereto appurtenant or belonging." The alleged trespass was committed in going from the defend. ant's house to an ash-hole, formerly used with the premises lot 24, when both were in the occupation of the same person. The defendant contended that the way was still preserved to him under the words of the conveyance, " appurtenant or belonging." The Learned Judge was of a dif ferent opinion, and a verdict was taken for the plaintiff, with liberty for the defendant to move to vet it aside, if the Court should think that the right of way was reserved by those words. A rule was, in the course of last Term, obtained for that purpose. Mr. COLTMAN and Mr. TO3ILINSON, showed cause against it, and Mr. F. POLLOCK and Mr. HOGGINS were heard in support of it. Lord LYNDHURST was of opinion, that the rule to set aside the verdict must be discharged. The other Barons concurred.—Rule discharged. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, JAN. 12. STAGE-COACH ACCIDENTS..--SHARPE V. GRAY AND OTHERS. Mr. Sergeant ANDREWS moved for a rule Nis for a new trial of this cause, which was heard be fore the Lord Chief Justice at the last Sittings. The defendants are proprietors of a Chertsey stage-coach. The plaintiff was an outside passen ger on that coach when it broke down by the failure of the axletree, and the plantiff was thrown from the roof, and suffered most serious injuries. Tht plaintiff brought his action, and the Jury a warded him 300/. The Learned Counsel contended that the damages were excessive, the plaintiff having, previously to the trial, offered to accept a smaller sum, which offer the defendants, believing they had a legal answer to the action, refused to accede to. The main ground of the motion, however, was, that as the action did not arise from want of skilfulness on the part of the driver, nor, as the Counsel averred, flam any want of sufficient care on the part of the proprietors in providing a safe cat riage, the plaintiff, under a decision of Lord Chief Justice Mansfield, was not entitled to recover. The COURT refused the rule. ADMIRALTY COURT, JAN. 12. HIS MAJESTY'S SHIP TIIETIS.-CASE OF SALVAGE. This was a question of salvage, arising out of the property recovered from the wreck of the Thetas, and appears to be one of considerable importance to the owners and salvors of property lost and recd• vered as this has been. Several of his Majesty's ships having, from time to time, been engaged in assisting to recover the property from the wreck, claims for a share of the salvage were made on behalf of the officers and crew of each vessel. The Thetis, it appears, was laden with various valuable property, a portion of which was specie, to the amount of 810,000 dol lars ; and having struck, on the night of the sth of December, 1830, on the rocks oil Cape Frio, she The KING'S ADVOCATE, on tire part of the owners of the specie, said it was not their intention to dis pute the services rendered by the salvors. The Thetis, it appears, left Rio Janeiro on the 4th of December, and was lost, as above described, on the evening of the following day. The suffer ings of the officers and crew, including the Com mander, Captain Samuel Burgess, were dreadful beyond description; and many of the unhappy men, irLattempting to save their lives, either lost them, by being dashed to pieces on the rocks, or washed away by the waves. rhe affidavits describe the wreck, the situation of Cape Frio, and all particulars, most minutely. The first read was Captain Dickin son's, and from the information it contained, it would appear that the vessel, by stress of boisterous weather, was driven on the rocks at that part of the sea, at Cape Frio, forming the cove or inlet, and where the projecting rocks, forming the most formi dable cliffs, were 200 feet in height. On the other side of the cove, a distance of 480 feet, the rocks were equally high. Information of the wreck having reached Rio Janeiro, the Admiral gave orders to Captain Dickinson to proceed with the Lightning, of which he was commander, to make observations. At first sight it would appear imposnible to attempt to approach the wreck with a view of saving her pro perty, from the awful apearance of the place where the vessel went down, and the circumstance of the sea running desperately high. When they ap proached the Cape, they discovered the vessel keel upwards, and the surge washing violently over her. After some time the Captain discovered that there were intervals of calm, in which an attempt to save the specie might be made, and having conceived a project, he communicated it to the Admiral. They endeavoured in conjunction to procure a diving bell in Rio Janeiro, but there was not one to be had in the place, and the Captain, who possessed a mecha nical turn, suggested that they might have one con structed out of an iron water-tank, the practicability of which having been approved of by the Admiral, two iron tanks were worked up, and two diving bells formed. When, however, he first mentioned his project, the Admiral, as the affidavit stated, said 'that it was visionary, and that it would be attended with great loss of life if tried, and certain failure. The Admiral, at this time, spoke from observation, having been to view the situation of tfie wreck. To enable them to bring the diving-bells into opera. tion, he further deposed, in his affidavit, that he had two launches constructed, and the sea having, by its violence, dashed them to pieces, he con structed a machine called a derick, composed chiefly of portions of the wreck of the Thetis, and from this the divers were enabled to descend in the bells. He also constructed an air-pump for the bells, and dollars to the amount of 50,000 were recovered by this process. The bells were, however, dashed to pieces against the rocks, by the power of the sea, and the derick, which was powerfully constructed, together with a suspension cable, was washed away by one fell swoop of a wave. He then had two other diving-bells constructed on the same principle, and proceeded to work on a different plan. The divers having discovered the bullion strewed in im mense confusion among the rocks at the bottom of the sea, at the depth of five fathoms from the sur face, rendered their recovery a work not only of great difficulty, but also of great risk to life, and some lives were lost in the endeavour. By the new plan, the greater part of the bullion was re covered, and in all 750,000 dollars were recovered. The new plan was remarkable for its ingenuity, and consisted of two parallel chain cables, of 480 feet in length, being passed from the summits of cliff to cliff, across the cove or inlet, which was made secure by means of cross-chains, and from the main cables was suspended a net, which, by means of weights, sunk perpendicularly into the sea, the object of which was to prevent the bullion, outside which it was placed, being washed into the sea, the meshes being constructed strong enough for that purpose. This plan almost completely succeeded. The diving_ bells were suspended from the chains, and the divers went on with their work with confidence. The affidavit alluded to divers sent to assist in the recovery of the specie by Admiral Baker; and stated that they were unable, on the ordinary plan, to remain under water more than two-thirds of a minute. The de ponent suffered so much in his health, from the manner in which he was exposed to the inclemency of the weather during the process (several months) of recovering the specie, that his life is now consi dered in danger. The rest of the officers and crew also suffered dreadfully —many of the latter lost their lives by pulmonary complaints, and all suffered from extreme debility, and . from insects peculiar to the place, called " chigers," which perforated the legs, and caused the most acute pain. The affidavit further stated, that Admiral Baker did not visit Cape Frio from December, 1830, when the vessel was lost, to the close of the year 1831. The Light ning was ultimately relieved by the Algerine, which prosecuted the salvage up to the middle of July, 1832. This affidavit was supported by the affida vits of others. On behalf of Rear-Admiral Baker, Dr. Lusit- INGTON read an affidavit, made before his Majesty's Consul-General, by that individual, at Rio Janeiro. It set out by stating, that information of the loss of the Thetis having reached Rio Janeiro, the Admiral gave orders for the squadron under his command to proceed the next day to Cape Frio. The squadron according sailed, and he accompanied it himself; but, after being three days out, they were unable to reach Cape FriD, owing to the roughness of the sea, and were compelled to return to Rio. The Admiral, with a strong body of officers and men, then set out for the place over-land; and, having reached it, he gave every encouragement to Captain Dickinson, the officers, and men, to make an at tempt to save the specie. He also placed every possible necessary means at the disposal of Captain Dickinson, to whom he intrusted the command and direction of the service, and placed one of the ves- 1 sels mentioned above at his disposal as a tender. The affidavit further stated that it was he (Admiral Baker) who suggested the chain-cables being passed from cliff to cliff,which proved so successful—the net, B ze-; and that he condemned as useless, the machine called the derick, constructed by Captain Dickinson. The Admiral further deposed in his affidavit, which, like Captain Dickinson's, was supported by the affi davits of other individuals, to the miserable state of destitution in which he found the survivors of the crew of the Thetis, and that he had, by every means in his power, relieved them. The amount of dollars saved by the Lightning, while engaged in the service (including those re covered by the machine called " the derick” was 588,801; an d t h ose recovere d b y t h e illgenne amounted to 140,199; making in all 729,000 dol- A GOOD REASON FOR NOT ATTENDING AS A JUROR. A gentleman appeared to excuse the absence of another gentleman. The LORD MAYOR—What is the reason the per son who is summoned is not in attendance to do his duty? Apologist—Because he is not able, my Lord. I came here as his representative. The LORD MAYOR—But why does he not come himself? Apologist—Because he really can't, my Lord. The fact is, my Lord, he is not living.—(A laugh.) The LORD MAYOR— Why did you not say so at once ? That objection is surely quite enough.— Apologist—The gentleman is not living, my Lord. He is dead. The RECORDER—You may stand dow Sir. He is excused.—(A laugh.) Several petty cases of assault were then disposed of. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. B 0 W- S TREE T. CAUTION TO CAB -MASTERS.— WilliaNl Field was charged with having obtained a situation in the em ploy of Mr. Abbott, a cab-master, in George-yard, Drury-lane, by means of a false character. Mr. MINSHULL fined the prisoner in the sum of 201., and in default of payment committed him to the House of Correction► for ten weeks. WOR SHIP-S TREE T. EXTRAORDINARY AFFILIATION CA;li—Mr.Thos. Stone, of highly respectable appearance, between 60 and 70 years of age, was charged with being the father of an infant which had become chargeable on the parish of Bethnal-green. Matilda Bingby, a poor-looking, diminutive fe male, about 24, and daughter of a weaver, had lived five years in the service of a gentleman named C., who was often visited by the defendant. In No vember, 1831, Mr. Stone met her, and having laid hold of her arm, which confused and made her tremble very much, he took her to a house in a place called "Botany Bay," where her ruin was effected. Mr. Stone repeated his conduct in a week after ill her master's house, when her master was absent. On the 26th of August she became a mother. 'When her master discovered that she was enciente he turned her away. The girl, in her cross-examination by Mr. PHIL LIPS, who appeared for Mr. Stone, replied in the ne gative to every question put to her. Her statements were disproved in the following evidence : Mrs. Haywood, a midwife, said that the girl and her sister came to her to know if she was enciente. Witness Ending that she had taken medicine, a'ked who gave it to her? Bingby replied, her master. Being told that the medicine was savine, witness exclaimed, " Oh, Heavens ! that will kill the child and cause a miscarriage." Mrs. Wheeler, a seaman's wife, swore that Bing ley had told her that Mr. C-'s wife had been dead a twelvemonth, and that Mr. C- was not free from blame. The MAGISTRATES said that the girl had evi dently been guilty of perjury, and he dismissed the case. Mr. PHILLIPS intimated that his client would pro- secute the girl. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. MR. LONG WELLESLEY AND HIS DOMESTICS:. In consequence of a letter from the solicitors of Mr. Long Wellesley having appeared in several Morn ing Papers, announcing that ,all the undtr servants in Mr. Wellesley's establishment had been paid their wages, several young men, during the week, have been to the Magistrates of this office, to state that they had been placed in a situation of augmented embarrassment, owing to this statement, which was not correct. The cab-boy, the groom, and two or three stable-helpers, declared that they still remained un paid, and as they had been compelled to run into debt with small tradesmen, in consequence of the non-payment of their arrears of wages ' their credi tors now threatened to resort to harsh measures, as they believed that all the under servants had been paid. One of the stable-helpers, in the course of con versation with Mr. Conant, said that Mr. Welles ley's coachman, to whom was owing between 2,0001. and 3,0001., was now in the Fleet, for debts con tracted through his master's instrumentality. _ Mr. CONANT said he commiserated the situation of the applicants, but could not assist them, as the matter was not within Magisterial jurisdiction. HATTOiY-GARDEN. STEAM-CARRIAGE:S.—Robert Pitcher, the col lector at Ball's Pond toll-gate, applied to Mr. LAING for a summons against Mr. Ogle, of the Burlington Hotel, in Burlington-street, under the following cir cumstances :—He stated that on the 22d ult. Mr. Ogle passed through the Ball's Pond toll-gate, with a steam-carriage, and on demanding toll for the same he refused, alleging that he was not liable to pay one. Mr. LAING inquired under what Act of Parlia ment he contended that Mr. Ogle was bound to pay toll. Pilcher replied the 10th Geo. 4, commonly called the Metropolitan Turnpike Act, the 21st section of which set forth that any coach or waggon, propelled or drawn by steam or gas, shuald pay the same toll as a similar vehicle drawn by six horses. Mr. LAING granted the summons. UEEN-SQUARE. A DUST CASE.—Williani Gore, a master sweep, residing in the New-road, Chelsea, and Win. Sawyer and Giza?.les Gib on, his men, were charged with defrauding Mr. Emerson, the dust contractor for the Hans Town district, of two sacks of dust and ashes. The complainant had repeatedly sent his man to No. 50, Sloane-street, Chelsea, to take away the dust, but the cook as repeatedly sent them away with an ob'ervation that Mr. Gore, " who was the most - ; - Mr. WHITE inquired whether any person had examined the contents of the sacks, upon lua :v iccd h oo i vati c sil h d one of the con t ractor ' s men , name d H al l oway, said, preserve' Please r .v Hy any yEr soot —WI o sau r t s p h apl i o r . s , el.

Mister Gore—Now, your Vorship, I should like to know as how wot this man knows. He an't never swept a flue, and is werry ignorant indeed of the business, and can't tell the difference between sut and dust. If a man's a man he hacts like a man, but if a man comes here to swear avay the life of another man, vy then, your Vorship, I says as how that man's no man whatsomdever.—( Much laughter, in which even the Magistrate joined.) Notwitstanding the evidence of Mister Gore, Mr. WHITE observed the case was proved against the defendants, and they must pay a fine of 10s. each for the offence. " Vell, may I be sp:flicated," exclaimed the mas ter chimney-sweep," if this ar'nt werry hard lines; can't your Vorship make it summut less, for thirty bob is more and as how ve can muster, and that too for doing nothing? Ve are as innocent as new born babes never vas!" MS. WHITE was inexorable, and the defendants were locked up. Mister Gore, however, paid his fine in a few minutes, and was liberated, leaving his men to get out in the best manner they could. LAMBETH-STREET. ROBBERY OF A POLISH COUNT.—Abraham Lay, a Polish Jew, was charged with stealing several ar ticles of property, and unlawfully pawning a valuable military cloak, belonging to Count Xavery Potocki, a Polish exile.—Sentenced to two months' imprison ment. THAMES POLICE. FEAR OF THE LASH.—A poor woman, named Sarah Coburn, applied, in great affliction, to Mr. BRODERIP, under the following circumstances : Eleven months ago, her husband went out as cook in an East Indiaman. The vessel lately returned to Liverpool, and she found that her husband had committed suicide during the voyage. A shipmate, having a grudge against him, put some water into the soup, and spoiled it. Coburn was then called to account by the Captain and Mate, who dragged him below into the cuddy, and they were about to put him in irons, until all hands could be mustered to see him flogged, when he made a sudden spring, and exclaiming, " If you catch me, you must catch the devil," he jumped through the main window into the water, and instantly disappeared. The appli cant said she expected the vessel every day in the London Dock, and that she had strong reason for believing that the foregoing story, which was told by the Captain and Mate, was not exactly according to the truth. Mr. BRODERIP was of opinion, that neither the Captain nor Mate could be charged with causing the cook to throw himself overboard; but he wished to satisfy the widow of the deceased, and have a proper inquiry instituted. THE SURREY FOX-HOUNDS.-00 %%Ted nesday we were gratified with a sight of the Surrey Union fox hounds. Their meet was Virginia -water ; the field very small, and so so mounted, none of the sub scribers of the hunt being out, and upon inquiring after their highly-respected master (Mr. HAWKEY), we were sorry to learn that illness prevented his attendance. (ter drawing for an hour, we had a beautiful find (a brace) in Wentworths; fortunately the hounds did not divide, but went well away with a very fine fox, through Portnells, crossed the Bagsbot road, into Shrub's•hill, by the Belve dere, into the covert opposite the Fishing Temple. In this plantation the chase was exhilirating beyond descrip tion. The romantic scenery of this fairy spot is well known ; the echo from the lake may be imagined ; but the shrill melodious strain of the darlings, with good scent breast-high, can only be explained by a description in one of our favourite poets, where he says--" A cry more tune ful was never halloo'd to, nor cheered with horn." In the covert the fox ran for 20 minutes, and at length re crossed the road close to the Wheat Sheaf, and ran the moors, away to Knole-grove, where poor pug was obliged to yield to his relentless pursuers, after showing a very pretty hunt of one hour and 20 minutes. Although not deeply initiated in the science of hunting—for a science it undoubtedly is—the difference in hounds under different circumstances is truly curious to remark. This being such a day as hounds seem thoroughly and intensely to enjoy, throughout every part of the sport, it was truly beautiful to see them " examine every likely haunt with envious nose," then having found, to notice " how the head they press, jostling in close array," now at fault, now handy to the huntsman's halloo, and so on to the end of poor pug's chapter.— Windsor Express. AN OLD BARGAIN PURCHASED FOR ONE HUNDRED Pouxns.—A few days since, Mr. JAMES, a re spectable farmer in Mullion, and Miss Foxy:ELL, of St. Keverne, in Cornwall, were married in the latter pariah. The bride and bridegroom had been engaged for several years, when about three years since they separated by mutual consent, when a Mr. Joss paid his addresses to the fair one, and was accepted. Mr. JAMES having heard of it, rebuked his love, and renewed his addresses to his " old bargain," but she told him she had pledged herself to Mr. Joss and she could not break it off; but, however, if he could arrange with Mr. JosE, she had no objections to take him, Mr. JAMES, for " better or worse," in preference to Mr. JOSE. Mr. JAMES went immediately to his rival, who is a greater money lover than woman lover, and who consented to give up all claim to Miss F. if Mr. JAMES would guarantee to pay him 1001., which was readily consented to, and Mr. JAMES, on the wed ding, paid the 1001. for his wife, to the no small amuse ment neighbours. Commercial accounts have been received from St. Peteraburgh, which contain advice@ from Kiakta, by which we learn that the commerce between the Russians and the Cninese, on the frontiers, had greatly increased, and was very animated. The latter sent o ff with great expedition the merchandise they exchanged for their own commodities, which consisted chiefly of tea, of which they had large quantities. Should nothing occur to arrest this state of things, it was calculated that great advantages would be derived by the merchants of both nations, and that the merchandise of Kiakta would be sent into the interior of Russia during the latter part of the season, and which would facilitate the increase of the fairs of Ithit and Nisny Norogorod.
