TELIn'IOSe meeting SOCIETY FOR THE EMANCIPA nAgNOoKfFt N he n CHARTEReDI ae r ofs i T t E R t sh O i Y s L S .U oc T ie l t O y N was S. held last evening, the subject of discussion being the Bank Charter Resolutions of Sir R. Peel. The Earl of Mountcasbel was present. presided. The CHAIRMAN opened the business of the evening, by a speech of some le ng th . H av i ng announced t h e su bj ect o f discussion, he said it was not only a question affecting the charter of the Bank of England, but one connected with the whole currency of the country—a subject, he need not say, the mostimportant that could be discussed either by the Minis ter! the Parliament, or the people. They had now been suf fering for twe n t y -fi ve years under a system which the Prime Minister now boasted of having propounded, a system which superseded one that he was pleased to call a "fatal measure," but under which the country was rich and prosperous, and defeated the whole world that was in arms against her. tinder that system it' employed and fed the whole of her working population, and during the war and after it paid off many millions of the National Debt. The measure which superseded this fatal one had stopped the I payment of the debt, had increased by a double weight the burdens of the people, and had corainued to impoverish every class of the community, except one. But that class itself had begun to be pinched at last. Though their fortunes had been tripled since 1819, under the operation of this system, yet they found that now they could not receive more than one-third of the interest for their money that they used to do. That class, therefore, would make one struggle more, and the present system was not only to be continued, but to be made more screwing than ever. He then explained the nature of the currency of the country, and its division into two parts, as discussed at length at former meetings--one, the commercial currency of the country ; the other s the money of the Government ; and stated that it was A truism that the Government should be the'only issuer of money, but then it did not follow that all the currency of the country was to issue from one source. If this was his only principle, he should pronounce the plan of Sir Robert Peel to be a total failure, contrary to the prin ciples of common sense and to commerce. He censured the plan of reducing all to one bank of issue ; and stated that the principles of the plan were those which the Society could not entertain, and they should think it their duty to do all in their power to stop the Minister from taking so rash and fatal a course. That a man in such an elevated posi tion should be so misguided and misadvised as to'throw away all the popularity he had gained, and finish his public career as the enemy of his country instead of its protector, was a thing that, a short time ago, was beyond his comprehen sion. He thought it the more strange that he should persist in this policy, since he had already been three times defeated by it in the House of Commons. The three adverse divi sions on Lord Ashley's proposition arose from the conse quences of this system; it had acted through the master on the labourer, and produced such a mass of distress and mi sery, as to oblige the House of Commons to devise a remedy. He also, to the short time allowed the country to consider a proposal of such magnitude. To give only a fort night for the consideration of this question, was trifling with the nation ; it would take a twelvemonth to consider it thoroughly. Mr. RoGERs opened the discussion by adverting to the measure of Mr. Pitt—the Bank Restriction Act—stating his be lief that Pitt had been unjustlypraised for his wisdom in fram ing it, when, in fact, it was forced upon him by the circumstances of the time, there being no other mode for the Bank of Eng land to escape the disgrace of stoppi ng payment a l toget h er. He reprobated the infamy of the Act of 1819, but it was in famous, not because it was unsound in principle, but:because no ;equitable adjustment was made, which was necessary then. The consequence of this was, that the poor suffering people of this country had been subjected to a course o f extort i on—he might say, ,swindling—ever since. But th e reme d y f or th e evils must not be a course of direct hostility to the Bill of 1819 ; and he complained that no one had stated what that remedy ought to be. Mr. LASSIE MURRAY said, with regard to the question of an " equitable adjustment, according t o t h e plan proposed by .Mr. Cobbett, it was a giving up of private property for the use of the State. An equitable adjustment between the debtor and creditor interest might have been made in 1819, but it could not have been done on Mr. Cobbett's principle— that would have caused endless confusion. He did not believe that Mr. Pitt was highly praised as the author of the plan to which he had recourse in 1797 ; he had only stated, that had not Mr. Pitt adopted it, the country could not have gone on, nor could it have attempted those great undertakings which it did attempt during the war. He was not an ad mirer of Mr. Pitt's Act, but that Minister discovered, by ac cident, an approach to a better system of currency, and should they be involved in another war, they would be obliged to have recourse to that system again. With respect to the measure of Sir Robert Peel, which he now approached, he almost shrank from discussing it at any length; he felt, however, that if Sir Robert Peel should carry it without some remonstrance from those who had studied the question, they would be guilty of injustice to their own countrymen, if they did not lift up their voice, however feeble it might be, to warn the country of the gulf it was about to be plunged into. The plan was to contract the currency. One would have thought that the Bill of 1819 would never have been re-enacted by the same man by whom it was introduced, one would have thought the consequences of that Bill had been so shocking in themselves, and so palpable to the eye, that no man would have had the hardihood at this time of day to have tightened " the screw" which that Bill laid on. The consequences of that Bill had' been the successive panics of 1822 and 1825, and the clouds that had ever since appeared in the commercial hori zon. This, it might have been thought, would have prevented any man from glorying in that Bill, however much he might be bent upon increasing the fortunes of the great annuitants of this country.—(Hear, h ear .) H e was g l a d, however, th a t Sir R. Peel had. discussed the question. They might now take his spech as the text of the bullionists ; yet, if they exa mined it they would find that every sentence of that speech contradicted each other. It divided itself naturally into two parts, one on banking, and the other on currency, but both so interwoven as to effect the grand object—that of restriction of the representative of value of the country. Sir Robert Peel had asked what was a pound sterling? Did he suppose it was au unanswerable question, or that lie alone was able to give its solution ? The sovereign he produced with an air of triumph was but a bad representative of a standard of value. As gold, it was subject to more var i at i ons i n it s quan tity . than any other commodity the produce of labour, and yet it was in thi s commodity that it was sought to give to a certain fixed wei g ht an invariable value. The produce of industry might fluctuate as it pleased, the same quan tities of them commanding at different times more or less of the precious metals, but gold alone was to be exempt from fluctuation. The same quantity must always represent the same value. This was, in fact, constituting that which should be the servant of the public, its master. But it might be asked, why was this so ? He would tell them. The fund holders, the Government aanuitant of all classes, and the capitalists were the masters of this and every other Govern ment. It was they who not only cried out for an unvarying standard, but although they lived by the taxes, they hated being paid in t ax -b urthened money. He wou ld re ply to Sir R. Peel, by asking him if the weight contained in the pound . sterling, or ounce of gold, had not also an intrinsic and, if as s uc h, i t was not liable to fluctuate in relation to other commodities, as other commodities fluctuated in rela tion to each oth er ? H e would also as k if it wa s n o t p oss ibl e to discover the intrinsic value of all articles of production, by ascertaining how much of other things were consumed in their re- . production, and if this argument held good, what a great injustice was committed when you fixed the price of 'one article, gold for instance, above all others the most liable ;to fluctuate, as a standard of value, for other things the least liable to vary either in quantity or cost price. He contended that the great commerce of the world was carried on without the intervention of gold, or without a standard of value at all, other than the intrinsic relationship of value existing in the things exchanged. It was at home that a standard be came necessary to measure the quantity the creditor had power to demand fr,ona his debtor, that a common measure became neeessary4.hut . was it fair to the debtor interest, which toniprised the tax.-paying part of the community, to demand payment by any ; other standard than that which regulated their means of payment? Corn was this standard—it was the very element that ruled the intrinsic value of all things in this country, and the least fluctuating in a given number of ,'ears. :There could be no objection to the use of gold as a co?t,',lrut - -it was unjust to the productive classes to . say that Itgiv weight of'gold should always represent a given sum Of•moneyi.' while their wages and the product of their in dustryavere permitted to fluctuate. In answer, therefore, to Bir Robert Peel, lie would say let the pound sterling repre dent a certain number of bushels of wheat, say three bushels —let this be fixed on the average of ten years. This is what people could understand, and whether the circulating pound' sterling was composed of 5 dws. 3 grs. of gold, or a bank note, the people would know how much corn they were entitled to for every pound sterling they earned in wages. If the world only consisted of consumers and producers, men would contrive to do without such a measure of value as gold, by exchanging the commodities that each had to bring into the market. e considered this an answer to the question Sir Robert Peel had asked with such apparent complacency. With respect to the banking part of the subject, it appeared that Sir R. Peel endeavoured to lessen the quantity of money in circulation. During the last year the Bank acquired a greater power of issue than ever it had, and this caused money to be cheaper, not because men had increased their property, but because money laid in the hands of the private dealers, and the Bank of England was ready to go into the money market and compete with them in the discount of bills, &c. This had naturally caused a great deal of envy on the part of private capitalists, and they were glad to see this measure of Sir Robert Peel's for reducing the circulation of the Bank to 1 4,000,000/. ; for they said, when the demands of the country require more than this amount, we shall have the power of charging whatever the public will be able to afford for the use of our money. The measure, therefore, was one that would benefit the ca pit a li s t s ; but what might prove beneficial to the capitalists might not be beneficial to the producing interests. This should make the agri cu lt ur i s ts, as the chief producing interest of the country, look sharply after Sir Robert Peel, and not believe in all the calmness and tranquillity that reigned in the City of London. In fact, h was a " joy suppressed." They must not take the opinion of the moneyed capitalists, the plan would work in their favour, as they had money to sell ; but those who had to sell corn, coals, or iron, or wool, wo u ld b e i n j ure d an d mulcted of a portion of their profits. And the evil would not fall alone on them, but on the working men of the produc tive classes, whose wages would be lowered and profits diminished. Mr. Cam's confined his observations entirely to the cur rency part of the question. He denied the truth of the posi tion asserted by Sir R. Peel, that th e " pound " h a d a l wa y s been fixed and invariable. It was at first a pound weight of silver, but it had undergone many mutations. Henry the Eighth altered it no less than four times, and Edward the Sixth reduced it to a very low amount indeed. But in con currence with it was another kind of pound, consisting of the Exchequer money, or tallies issued by Henry the First. He argued for the issue of a Government money to the amount of the taxation of the country, statin g , very f orc ibly, that by the system of indirect taxation the Government has effec tually raised the price of commodities, or made less sell for the same money, as if they adopted the old and barbarous plan of sending a man with a pair of shear% to cut off twelve inches from every yard of cloth imported, a process from which our present word Exc l e t was derived.

He should wish to see some practical step taken with a view of proving to Sir It. Peel that he was promising what he could not perorm. Mr. HOLLAND contended that it mattered not how little money was in the country provided it circulated with suffi cient rapidity. He stated a curious calculation, made on the authority of Diodorus and Pliny, that in Egypt at the period the Pyramids were built, so little coin was required for the purposes of life, that to feed, clothe, educate, and bring a man from childhood to maturity, it did not cost more than 13s. of English money of the present day. He eulogised the plan of Sir IL Peel. Mr. O'BRIEN remarked that he had heard that there was nothing so hideous in the world but what had got some thing to admire it ; and he found the saying illustrated by the admiration the last speaker felt for the currency plan of Sir 11. I'eel. He denounced it as unsatisfactory, illogical, and inappropriate to the circumstances of the country, and he felt indignant that no movement had yet been made to oppose it. The CHAIRMAN stated that it was a tacit arrangement that no opposition was to be made to the measure on introducing it. He had, however, the satisfaction of knowing that the "cheering" with which the plan was received came exclu sively from the Opposition side of the House. He then an- nounced that the discussion of the same subject would be.. continued at the next meeting, and the proceedings ICrllli nated. TIORTICULTURAL SOCIETY of LONDON. EXHIBITION AT THE GARDEN.

(Before Mr. WALESBY and a full Bench of Magistrates.) - Yesterday Alfred Matthews pleaded guilty to a charge of stealing a piece of pork, the property of John Marshall. After his plea had been recorded, the prisoner handed in a paper which the Chairman on perusal stated, if true, showed that the case of the prisoner was one of a most heart-rending description. From his statement, it appeared that when taken before the committing Magistrate, on the above charge, lie stated that distress had driven him to the commission of the offence, and that having previously applied for parochial relief, he was sent into the stone-yard, and received some bread, with an intimation that he must not apply to them again. In reply to questions from the Court, the prisoner said he could not obtain more than from 6d, to Bd. a day by breaking stones—that being a kind of work to which he had never been subjected—that he had a wife and three children to support—that he belonged to the parish of• Hackney, and that it was from the officers of that parish he had received the treatment he complMnedo£ • • The CHAIRMAN said the case was .vne of so painful a nature, that he felt it his duty to 'make some observations upon it before he pasted sentence upon the. prisoner —in the hope that their publication through the medium of the press would have a beneficial operation not only upon parochial authorities in general, who adopted the practice complained of, but on those of Hackney in particular. It appeared from the prisoner's statement, that he had formerly been engaged in an extensive way of business, and had for a considerable period maintained his wife and family in comfort and re spectability, but had since, from unforeseen causes, become greatly reduced in his c ir cums t ances , an d frequently with out the means of obtaining food for his wife and family— that while in that state he applied to the guardians of Hackney parish for relief, who, after giving him some bread, sent him to break stones, and told him not to apply to them again, and that was all the assistance they extended to a man who, with his family, was in a state of starvation, and at length in a tit of desperation, after he and his family had been in want of food for a day and a half, he was unfor tunately led to the commission of the offence to which he had pleaded guilty. He (the Chairman) hoped that the publica tion of this case would induce parochial officers to act with a greater degree of mercy aid consideration towards those unfortunate persons who were compelled to seek for assist ance at their hands. iMPERIAL RUSSIAN•POLISH LOAN of 150,000,000 Florins (of 1835), IMPERIAL AUSTRIAN LOAN of 30,000,000 Florins (of 1839), guaranteed by their Majesties the Emperor of Austria and the Emperor of Russia.

The CHAIRMAN said he was glad that the juryman had so far confirmed the statement of the prisoner ; indeed, if any portion of his statement wero untrue, the police who had ample opportunities of making inquiries abo u t him, would have contradicted it. The policeman who apprehended the prisoner here said, that such inquiries had been made, and the statement of the prisoner found to be true in every particular. He had parted with every vestige of his furniture, and he and his wife and children not only slept on bare boards, but had not a morsel to eat. The prosecutor here said, that onEbeing informed of the wretched condition of the prisoner and his family, so far from wishing to go on with the prosecution, he was anxious to drop it, but was informed that he could not do so. The pri soner had been in respectable circumstances, had always borne a good character, and therefore he most earnestly recom mended him to the merciful consideration of the Court. The prisoner said that since he had been in custody several charitable individuals, who had known him when in better circumstances, had kindly offered to give him employment as soon as he obtained his liberty.

MANCHESTER, MONDAY NIGIIT.—The canvass for the free - trade candidate goes on gloriously. The reports from all parts of the southern division of the county speak in the most glowing terms of success. In the manufacturing towns, especially Manchester, Bolton, Oldham, Bury, Rochdale, Ashton, and Warrington, and also in Liverpool, according to the correspondence of the Committee, there are many per sons who at the last election supported the Conservatives, who have expressed their determination to vote for free trade. Mr. Brown, the free-trade candidate, addresses his Committee to-morrow, at Liverpool, and in the evening a great meeting is to be held in the Free-trade Hall, Manchester, at which Mr. Cobden will be present, and Mr. Robert Hyde Greig. On Wednesday Mr. Brown commences his canvass personally, and will visit Manchester, Bolton, Ashton, and Oldham on Thursday ; and on Friday he is expected to be at Ormskirk and the neighbouring towns. Mr. Entwistle met his central committee at Newton-in• the- Willows, at twelve. There was but a slender attendance, and though it included several considerable landed proprie tors, there was a great lack of spirit, arising from not getting a candidate of higher mark—a man of family and influence, all which men, it is now ucdisguisedly admitted, have shirked the contest from a fear of the expense, which is cal culated at from 20,0001. to 30,000/. The Sheriff's proclamation was issued this morning, fixing the nomination for Friday, the 24th instant, at the Horse and Jockey, Newton-in-the-Willows, and the polling it is presumed, will take place on Whit-Monday and Tuesday. The following is from the Liverpool Times : " The free-trade candidate tor South Lancashire, Mr. Brown, was born at Ballymena, county of Antrim, and edu cated in Yorkshire, in which county he now possesses a large landed estate. He left this country for the United States in the year 1800, returned to England in 1808, and has resided in the neighbourhood of Liverpool ever since. We mention these circumstances, about which there is no more doubt than there is about Mr. Brown's existence, because it has been stated that he is a native of the United States; and, for the purpose of contradicting another mis-statement, we add, that Mr. Brown, though born in one of the most Presbyterian districts in Ireland, has for many years been a member of the Established Church, and one of the congregation, as well rnst,ohne and a friend Rev.h o s Edward d s t p h o a s t a ni t iuo cc l nl o . m toopfli use a t h h e:l tb s h c ee h n o e weae a nl n te d he c ow l f e h r mana s B Brown, ho hen eeids t a li enterprise d, in s . duce very day to assist in laying the foundation-stone of the acquired ur New Northern Dispensary in this town, to which he several th e r of proo f h b yis than h fellow-creatures, s judgment the udg m fact, en t that a n we d months ago contributed the munificent sum of 1,000/. As a thha merchant, Mr. Brown has many years held the same rank which the present Lord Ashburton held before his elevation to the peerage—a rank fully equal to that which the founders of the Peel and Arkwright families earned for themselves by their pre-eminent success in another departmeht of industry and enterprise. It is one of the proudest distinctions of this country, that eminent success in improving the useful arts and in extending the beneficial intercourse of commerce, has ever been held a legitimate title to the favour of the Sove reign and the honours of the State ; and it is, therefore, on good and solid grounds that a man who has eminently pro moted the commercial greatness of England solicits a share in the honours which the people also confer, appealing to the mercantile and trading classes as one of themselves, and to the landowners as one of those whose activity and skill has added so immensely to the value of their estates." The same journal informs us that there was a meeting at Liverpool on 'Monday, which Mr. Cobden and Mr. George Wilson addressed at some length, giving the most encourag ing assurances.

Gentlemen, having been deaf for some time, I was induced, in the month of No vember, 1839, to make trial of your Invisible Voice Conductors, and, although at my advanced age, at that time past my 77th year, I had no hope of obtaining any relief, yet immediately I applied them I could hear the general conversation, and my hearing has become so much improved by their use, that I can now hear acutely without their aid.

DER BLAUBART; EIN MARCHEN IN FUNF AKTEN. Von Ludwiek Tiech. With a Translation of all Difficult Words and Passages, explanation of Grammatical Peculiarities, 6.c. By H. Aprl. The tale of Blue Beard has furnished the English stage with a musical melodrama, a pantomime, and may, perhaps, afford Planche the materials of a clever burlesque ; but it has not been recast by any hand capable of lifting the old tale to a higher level than the literature of the nursery. For the Germans it has done more ; it has given to their literature a comedy which may rank with the best for the purity of its language and style, well marked variety of character, and playful satire. Tieck has dramatised, in the same form, most of the popular nursery tales common to both countries, and his Puss in Boots, is an admirable specimen of his style ; but for the purpose of M. Apel " Blue Beard " is the most suita ble. It is intended as an assistance to the student of German in acquiring the idiom, and turns of ex pression, of familiar, every day conversation, far more likely to be acquired from a perusal of a comic pro duction, than from the more elevated style of tragedy. On the same principle, a foreigner learning English would form a better notion of the familiar language of the time from a modern comedy, Bell's Mothers and Daughters, or Jerrold's Bubbles of the Day, than from Macbeth. It is no slight credit to Al. Apel that he has been the first to depart from the usual mode of putting into the hands of the learne r the highest works of Goethe and Schiller, which if they could be read, certainly would not be fully comprehended by a child, who would be perfectly at home with his old acquaintance "Blue Beard," though presented in a foreign dress. The publica tion of Tiecks' tale will also make him better known to others than beginners; for it is here, for the first time, printed in a separate form, being extracted from the collection of the author's tales and dramas, enti tled "Pliantasus." But whether it is read by the pupil or the proficient, it cannot fail to please. The conversion of the Eastern Wife-killer into a partly German Baron of the middle ages, half soldier, half robber; the use of the machinery of a feudal time, combined with the language and ideas of yesterday, and the continual contrast of the characters, kept up through out with admirable artistic skill, all arrest the attention by exciting us to a good-humoured laugh. Nothing can excel the rich stupidity of Heymon and Conrad, who, at the commencement, are leading an expedition against Peter Berner (the Bluebeard), and mar it with a pompous blundering that renders the whole a most happy burlesque of campaigning. The Coun sellor and the Fool are capital pendants to the two most incapable of commanders; the sisters, Anne and Agnes, are finely discriminated, and there is an equal distinctness in the characters of their three brothers, while old Mechtilde, the housekeeper of Blue Beard, has a careless malignity in her, which, combined with the effects of " age and envy," make her a sort of domestic Sycorax. The work is clearly printed in roman type, a departure from the usual " black letter," which will be acceptable to many; we believe the use of this antiquated form is becoming less general in modern German works. A translation is given at the end of the work of the difficult words and passeges, which the learner will find always useful and often in dispensable. Asa work both useful to the beginner and agreeable to the more advanced, M. Apel's edition of " Blue Beare will secure an extensive circulation. ~. SUDDEN DEATH OF A LADY.—The lady of Mr. Magnay, brother to the Lord Mayor of London, arrived in this town early yesterday morning, from Dublin, and, having been indisposed on the passage, she was conveyed in a car to the house of Mr. Cripps, surgeon, Dale-street, where, not wsthstanding the means that were employed for her relief, she died in the course of a short time. The cause of death was congestion of the lungs.—Liverpool Timee. On Monday last John Entwistle, aged twenty three, of Manchester, plunged suddenly into the water on the north shore, frbm a bathing machine, and was killed by the shock.—Liverpool Albion. An "extra Sun" /of New York of April 13, con tains an elaborate hoax, or joke, entitled " Astounding News"—" the Atlantic crossed in three days."—" Signal triumph of Mr. Monck Mason's Flying Machine," &c. &c. In the details there are some happy hits at the amusing minuteness with which aerial travelling has occasionally been narrated. It is well got up, the headings with notes of admiration occupying half a column! The showers of Thursday last have had a most beneficial effect on the appearance of the country. As a proof of the earliness of the season, we may mention that we have just now before us a b unc h o f rye, fully barbed, and in ear. It was taken from a field of eight acres on the farm of Millburn, Dumbartonshire ; and we almost regard it as an earnest of a plenteous harvest.—Glasgow Herald, Ma 13. DEATH OF SIR JOHN LOWTHER, BART.—The de mise of this highly respected and venerable Baronet, took place on Monday last, at Swillington Hall, near Leeds, his principal residence. He was the son of the Rev. Sir William Lowther, Bart., Rector of Swillington, and Ann, his wife, a descendant of the ancient family of the Zouches ; was born in April, 1759, and had consequently just completed his 85th year. On the 4th September, 1790, he married Lady Eliza beth Fane, second daughter of John, the ninth Earl of West moreland, by whom he had three sons and three daughters, but one of the latter died an infant, and another in 1812. Sir John was next brother to the late excellent Earl of Lons dale, whom he strongly resembl e d, b o th i n f ea t ures an d per sonal disposition. His baronetcy dates from the year 1824. The successor to his title and estates is his eldest son, John Henry (born March 23, 1793), one of the Members for the City of York —now, ofcourse, Sir John Henry Lowther, Bart.

It is an old and respectable family, one or two of its members having uniformly held offices in the parish for upwards of a century. DREADFUL ACCIDENT. —A shocking accident oc curred at Blenheim Palace yesterday. News arrived in the afternoon of the birth of a son by the Marchioness of Bland ford. Some cannon in the park were fired off in honour of the event, when a young man named Henry Summer, who was employed in discharging one of the guns, proceeded to reload the same without unfortunately having cleaned it ; having put in the charge, it ignited from some fire left in the gun, at once exploded, and blew off both his hands. He was as speedily as possible brought to the Radcliffe Infirmary, Os. ford, where every attention is being paid him, but with very slight hopes of his surviving many days. His age is 25, and he has a wife and two children. ARUNDEL, MAY 14.—INCENDIARY FIRE ON THE DUKE OF NORFOLK'S ESTATE.—On Saturday evening, about half-past ten o'clock, a portion of the inhabitants were alarmed by the cry of fire, which, on inquiry, turned out to be a wheat-rick, belonging to his Grace the Duke of Norfolk, situate in Park Bottom, about a quarter of a mile from the dairy. The engines were soon on the spot, and the attention of the fire-brigade, under the direction of Mr. John Hart well, were directed principally to the saving of the adjoining buildings, which was with great difficulty effected, owing to the scarcity of water. The rick, which contained about ten loads, was literally burnt to a cinder, and was insured in the Royal Exchange office. Every exertion has been made to discover the perpetrators by our police, but hitherto without effect. No reward has yet been offered. This is the first and only fire by incendiarism that has ever occurred on the Duke of Norfolk's estate ; and, of course, has caused the greatest excitement in the town and neighbourhood, as well with those connected with the estate.—(From a Correspondent.) DETERMINED SUICIDE: Yesterday afternoon in formation was received at the police-station, Arbour-square, that a man of the name of Simonds, residing at No. 25, East field-street, Limehouse, had written a letter to a relative, in timating that it was his intention to destroy himself. A constable was instantly sent to investigate the matter, and on forcing an entrance into the house, and bursting open the door of an apartment which was locked from the inside, the unfortunate man was found lying upon his bed, quite dead. Beside him was a coffee cup, which smelled strongly of laudanum, and a bottle labelled "Laudanum—poison," which contained a portion of the deleterious drug.

Several boats were promptly the and commenced upon spot, dragging for the unfortunate young gentleman ; but, al though every effort was made to find the body that evening and during the next day, it was not discovered until turned up by one of the steamers on Monday last, about 200 yards from the spot where the accident took place, and, being Fat ashore, was conveyed to the above house. The jury, being satisfied that no one was to blame in the sad affair, returned a verdict of " Accidentally drowned." CORONER'S INQUEST.—Yesterday afternoon Mr. T. Wakley, M.P., Coroner, held an inquest in one of the par lours of Mr. Ives, Ivy-cottage, Ealing-common, Middlesex, on the body of Mr. Edward William Percy Sinnett, Red 49 years. The deceased gentleman, who resided at No. 9 Ehrenburg-place, Regent's-part, had, it appears, for the d last twelve months been labouring under consumption, an had latterly been persuaded to abstain from acti ve s the writer exer tion, and especia4 from night employment a in Herald. of the Parliamentary summary for the r 9 had °n complained For the last three days of his life he greatly of a giddiness in his head, and a few minutes after t his leaving the train, bu the station being a short dis tance from Ivy Cottage, he was seen by Mrs. Ives to approach the house in a staggering manner. The n and, on his door was opened to him by Mr. Ivesou ~ .en tering,deceased, "Well, Sir, you have Mrs. Ives said to the come back again." The deceased smiled and bowed, and went up stairs, but he did not speak. Within ten minutes called Mrs. deceased's sister-in-law Ives, and afterwards the asked her to procure some water,'which that lady did ; and, on taking i i nto the room in which deceased was, s h e ob servedl that deceased looked very black in the face. He was m ediately laid on a sofa, and Mr. Johnson, a surgeon, sent for, who promptly attended and bled him ; but human aid was of no avail. The deceased had been seized with an at tack of venous apoplexy, after which he never spoke, and ex pired about a quarter to nine o'clock the same evening. The jury returned a verdict of " N atural death from venous apoplexy." rAIRS ON LORD ASHLEY'S AMENDMENT.--GORMII Morison, against, with R.

A COPYHOLD ESTATE, TEN' HOUSES, and a CHAPEL, in the High street of the town, for absolute sale. MR. GEORGE ROBINS has received instruc tions from the Trustee for sa'e, to OFFER to PUBLIC AUCTION, and for positive Sale at the Auction Mart, London, To-Mourow, the 16th of May, at Twelve, in Three Lots, A COPYHOLD PROPERTY, valuable chiefly from the income being very secure, as well as highly improvable ; it is situate IN THE HIGH STREET OF THE TOWN OF RICKMANSWORTH, and on both sides of the street, very near to the Swan, the cele. brated fishing hotel ; it comprehends altogether TEN HOUSES AND COTTAGES, WITH A CONVENIENT CHAPEL, suited to any persuasion, and lots of useful detached buildings, to. gether with A PRODUCTIVE GARDEN AND ORCHARD, at the rear of the best of the houses in High-street. This property (conformable with Mr. Robins's invariable custom) be proclaims to be NOT A LITTLE THE WORSE FOR WEAR ; his reliaace chiefly is to be found in the certainty that Rickmans. worth is PROGRESSING FAST IN PUBLIC ESTIMATION. The facility of being so contiguous to the railroad, and the whole journey to London being accomplished in an hour, must, of necessity, increase the importance and the number of respectable applicants for houses and shops in the town. The present income rather exceeds ONE HUNDRED AND SEVEN POUNDS A YEAR, and it will not be doubted that an outlay of 3001. or 400/. will give 50/. a year additional inconte pleasant prospect at this time, when it is difficult to obtain 3 per cent. for capital : it is, there fore, suggested as a reasonable [opportunity for the .limited capi. talist to escape the danger of Three per Cents. at par, and employ it at Rickmanswortli more safely and profitably. Particulars, with plans (foutecn days prior to the sale), at the Terminus and Clarendon Hotel, Watford ; of Messrs. Sedgwick and Sin, auctioneers, and at the Swan Hotel, Rickmansworth ; Thomas Fellows, Esq., solicitor, Rickmansworth ; the Auction Mart ; and in Covent.garden. AT STREATHAM, HILL HOUSE, with its little PARK and DELIGHTFUL GROUNDS, placed in an almost irresistible position for a RESIDENCE, as well as a BUILDING OPERATION, altogether 14 Acres. MR. GEORGE ROBINS has received instruc tions to OFFER to PUBLIC COMPETITION, at the Auction Mart, To-Mortaow, May 16, at Twelve, a very desir able FREEHOLD PROPERTY, one of the most commanding features of this admired vicinity. It includes a mansion full of convenience, one that may be assimilated with those which the merchants of the olden school used to repose in, one where com fort and substantiality have been preferred to minor considerations. It is a VERY IMPOSING STRUCTURE, with accommodation throughout that one fastidiously disposed would not object to, to say nothing of hot and cold baths. It is on an elevated position, with STREATHAM COMMON, and the park and demesne of the late COUNTESS OF COVENTRY to form its boundary. It is altogether a romantic spot, and adorned by A PRETTILY WOODED PARK, with gardens and grounds of great beauty, extremely well arranged ; A SPLENDID RANGE OF CONSERVATORIES AND HOT-HOUSES; a melon ground, and in the court yard double coach-house, seven.. stall stable, and every possible convenience; indeed, within the abode, and throughout the offices, everything connected with com fort will be found conspicuous, and it is well supplied with water. In the park there is a variety of hill and dale to vary and improve the scenery, which is perfectly beautiful, and to those who would increase their ways and means it will occur that AN IMMENSE FRONTAGE, PARALLEL WITH THE RURAL COMMON, may be separated from the mans ion, and not intermed dle with Its comfort, inasmuch as the full - grow n timber is a ver y secure guard against the operations of a building operation. A LITTLE ARMY OF VILLAS WILL NOT BE SEEN, and the increasing reputation of this lovely spot would leave no doubt of the certainty of the speculation. The splendid abode of Mr. Leafs, with others of importance, and the great opulence and respectability throughout the vicinity, render this a most inviting purchase for a nobleman, or a wealthy citizen, or a professional man of high pretensions; it is altogether FOURTEEN ACRES, leaving sufficient for every legitimate purpose, after separating the building land ; Norwood and its varied attractions are at hand, and it may confidently be urged it has not to encounter a single alloy, _ __ . It may be seen by tickets ; particulars to be had at the Mansion ; of Messrs. Roy, Blunt, Johnstone, and Walton, solicitors, Lothbury ; the Auction Mart; and in Corent-garden. PUBLICATIONS.
