LONDON - MONDAY, NOVEMBER 4 ; .1839- • . -- .1 ,-- zi cf .y, e pf the Tory Journals begin to find out that it is eot exactly their game to disovm Mr Bit.s.nsm/44, they accordingly say that tbOugh his language was r iot exactly what ought to be used in public, it is what great multitudes feel, and a Tory weekly ci-devant R a dical paper says, " it is whet peat multitudes say in private." If that be , if multitudes begin to talk of he abdication of kiw JAMES in reference to her MAJESTY, if they eell her the QUEEN of a faction, because she will not suffer herself to be made the tool of the Torieq to degrade the nation ; if they describe her as the servant of the King of the BELGIANS, who is " the serf of LOUIS PHILLIPE," if multitudes believe and say all that Mr. BRADSHAW uttered, then it is high time that her MAJESTY, her Minis ters, and all the friends of her Government, and of Lil'eral principles, all the advocates of liberty and tale r ailion, should be on the alert, and form them selves into societies to defend and protect the QUEEN. If that be so, then it is true, as we have already stated, Lhat the Tory Journals only con demned Mr. BRAD'SIIAW at first, because he had and exposed their schemes betrayed their secrets before they were ripe. 'l, c ,- as the Post said on Sa turday, Mr. BRADSHAW be a competent mouth piece for ardent Protestantism, +lnd the hatred he avowed for her MAJESTY, her Ministers, and for elle whole Irish nation, be felt by all the ardent Pro testant Tories, we are nearer to an attempt to force an abdication than any person has yet dreamed of, and it behoves all the enemies of religious persecu tion and civil war, instantly to exert themselves for the safety and protection of the QUEEN. Some two or three years ago we remember that a General, Sir ED. BARNES, since deceased, offered ;n the name of the army, the use of its sword to Toryism. A very short time ago we published a general order issued by the Horse Guards, forbid , ding addresses to officers on the part of the men, and foo bidding officers to receive, or the men from giving, any token or testimony of respect and at tachment, the plain and palpable object of which is to prevent the army being popularised, and to !n ate it as completely as possible the instrument of ghe florse Guards. in fact the Horse Guards is Arel e r the influence of the Duke of WELLINGTON, ik ?KY has not, any more than Sir R.PEEL, though he was in the neighbourhood, disavowed the sentiments It ttere4 in the name of the Tories by Mr. BRAD itH AW, And secretly nourished by them. The sol diers and tf officers under that influence, and as mere instruments of :he Horse Guards, will only he allowed to entertain o :te kind of political senti • .me.itp. They are not fortn ,-lden to be politicians, but only forbidden to be Libt.:rals and Radicals 14in s--- --, A ___- M a needn of " The Conservative j "U I / 4 111" on Wednesda y gAssociation at j R t :. v, of Roch -1166 4 _. las t, .

There was also a C ap _ I taro CLARKE of the Navy present, and he, too, said no word to vindicate the QU •EEN. A hopeful prospect opens on us when we thus find the army all ()Wei to entertain only Tory principles, and the Tories avowing the most disloyal and destruc n tive doctrines. Attempts to storm the Court, or change th e & nast y, w ill not h o wever end there. , ~r-_--r-_-,7, Nitgleat and growing party look on Courts and , ) ,-....i'e1..7 1 T V to be ' , . ----,--. , , 4 :7:; \ . impediments to social improvement ; .. 3 .,: .. ;-,l_,;;Vt:„ it the Tories becrin, that party will strike in ~......

It is not only what they wish L 'ltemselves, therefore, but what they will bring about—no! only what they propose to do, but what others will i►. fallibly attempt if they commence, which makes it indispensable, we think, now to institute societies for the defence of the QUEEN. When the Tories are acting as the heralds of the Republicans, when they vilify the Court and talk of an abdication, loyal men will think it high time to take some vigorous ieasures to support her Majesty and ward off the destruction which the Tories are pre paring. They may be powerful to effect a great change, but if they expect to gather its fruits, they will be deceived. The Tory Journals are making a great hullabaloo about the success of their party at the Municipal elections. So prodigious was the excitement at Oxford at their success, according to the Standard, that they actually paraded the streets with a band of music, tnd thereby got a mob to follow them. What wondrous fellows are the Tories, so extraor dinarily popular, that they can, by the help of hired musicians, draw after them a few idle people. When their journals boast, however, do they mean that the BRADSHAWITES, or the PEELITES, the deposers or sham defenders of her MAJESTY, Prince ERNEST'S, or the lip-loyal men, have been success ful ? Can all the Tories henceforth serve under one flag, and ali be as ready as the rabid priesthood and ignorant squires of East Kent, to defame, insult, and threaten, her MAJESTY ? The Quarterly Re view has, indeed, recommended the patty to throw out feelers, one of which is Mr. BRADSHAW. Sir ROBERT PEEL has not yet repudiated this gentle man, who answered for him at Canterbury, and till that be done we shall not know how many of the Tories are ready to go the whole hog for ERNEST. Many of the electors of our towns cannot be pre pared to embrace Canterbury Toryism, and in voting for Tories voted for moderate men, who would as steadily resist Mr. BRADSHAW and Sir ROBERT PEEL, if he go with Mr. BRADSHAW, as we should. After all, of what do the Tories boast. At Manchester, Winchester, and Dover there has been no change whatever. At Poole and Lincoln the Tories have been beaten. At Liverpool they have gained one ; making their minority in the Town Council something smaller than a third. At Bris tol, Lancaster, Oxford, and Eye—" God save the mark ! "—they boast of a trifling gain ; but at all these places the Tory influence was before predo minant, and were their success ten times as great it would not add one vote to their party in Par liament. At the same time we by no means wish to flatter Lord MELBOURNE by stating that his party are gaining ground. The towns are his strong-holds, and we of late have seen many doubts thrown on the success of the Liberal party at the next election, in places where, hitherto, only Liberals have been elected. The Tories have the steady and enduring love of pelf and hope of place to keep theni united. Lord MELBOURNE'S fol lowers want something of that kind. Hope is the great stimulus, and he must give his friends and supporters reason to hope for something more. Their thoughts are fixed on their country, and their attachment would be strengthened, and their affec tion kindled by a prospect of some benefit to be conferred on it. They are• grateful for many ser vices, but gratitude is acknowledged to be a cold, feeble, and decaying emotion. A prospect of achieving the abolition of the Corn-laws, a hope of obtaining the Ballot, or further reduction of useless . expenditure, &c., might infuse new life and new rigour into his supporters. The errors of his opponents, however, will much contribute to give him strength i l arid keep him in power. It is impossible that the people should ever be reconciled to change Queen V icToar A and her Court, however black the To ries mzly delight to paint it, for the despot Prince E RN ES.,:, and his vile, disgusting, and loathsome friends. We see that the friends of Reform are to-mor row to commemorate the acquittal of HARDY, TOOKE, and THELWALL ; and we trust that they will have a good muster. That the speeches will be inspiring and the sentiments worthy of the men to whose memory—for they are now all departed— honour is to be done, and to the present improved political feeling of the country, we cannot doubt. The particulars of the feast are n ?entioned in an advertisement. We have received by the Flanders Mail last evening some details of the extraordinary proceed• inns of the Archbishop of POSEN. Au interdict has been issued, which _in its operation strongly recals the state of England when THOMAS A'BECKET contended with his Sovereign for su preme power. In the whole of the diocese the church bells are mute on Sundays and holidays, even at marriages all rejoicings are forbidden, and every 'expedient is adopted by the Clergy to create gloom and discontent among their flocks. If the people are so igno rant and superstitious as to be affected by these mummeries, the Court of Berlin will have a hard battle to fight with the Archbishop and the Court of Rome. After this, who can wonder at the King of PRUSSIA making such exertions to diffuse knoyvledge among his subjects, or at the Clergy of England throwing so many obstacles in the way of national eAucation. In all countries, and at all times, ignorance has been the most powerful ally of a dominant pries'hocd. Madrid letters and papers of the 26th ult. inclu sive, have reached us this morning. The debate in the Chamber of Deputies on the Address, was still going on. On the 24th, a rumour was spread that a revolutionary movement was about to take place in the capital, upon which the guards were called out, but nothing occurred to disturb the general tranquillity. In the course of the debate the ultra liberals exposed, with much bitterness, the hollow friendship of France, and the baseness of the Ministry in truckling to the Absolutists in the vain hope of conciliating the great Northern Powers, and particularly Austria. The Members of the Cabinet, however, maintained that the King of the FRENcII faithfully observed the stipulations of the Quadruple Treaty, and that their overtures to Austria were completely misrepresented. No news had been received from ESPARTERO of a latet date than the 21st ult. He was then with his army approaching Morella, garrisoning all the fortresses in his rear, so as to keep the road open behind him, and gradually narrowing the or ,lund occupied by the Carlists. His advanced guard then occupied a line extending from Ca landa to Camarillas, after routing a Carlist division under BAsQI:TE, one of CABRERA s Lieutenants. he Lisbon Papers of the 28 th We learn from . 1.. ult., brought by the Bi.gganZa, that the Portuguese to the demoralizing c h a t t r a e l: Government has had rccourts: spectacle of an execution, currence of murders and robberiesclieck i t n be th ri a i t g The victim selected was a poor wretch who f had been for five years under sentence of death, and who, after being for three hours paraded round the city, was hanged for the edifica tion of a mob, who expressed themselves delighted with the manner in which the whole process was conducted. Of course the Lisbon populace no longer entertain the least doubt of the legality of murder under certain circumstances, and those by no means so pressing as the want of money to a starving man, the gratification of revenge, or even the desire to amass wealth for lawful purposes. The Government has taught them that though it repu diates the shedding of blood, it does so in THE SUN, LONDON. MONDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1839. reality only in the case of private individuals ; and that it reserves to itself a complete monoply in the final application of the rope, the musket, and the , uillotine ! No wonder that under such systems m urders abound in the world. The French Journals of Thursday, Friday, and Saturday bare all leached us. Thursday's papers would have come to hand on Saturday morning but far the stormy state of the weather in the channel, which, during the greater part of last week, delayed for nearly twenty-four hours the regular mails be tween the English and French capitals. Friday being " All Saints' Day," but few of the journals were published, and they contain no political news of interest. Among the more stirring intelligence brought by the Paris papers, we find accounts of the discovery of another gun-powder plot ; of a Corn-riot at Dol, in Brittany ;of the execution of PEYTEL for the murder of his wife and servant ; of the state of the French army in Africa ; and of the warlike preparations of Russia, which will be found under their respective heads in another part of The Sun. Everything was ready at Algiers for the return of the Duke of ORLEANS from Africa. He was expected to sail from that city for France on the 28th or 29th ult. The Presse says that the French Government has resolved to send a Consul to New Zealand, but cannot decide to whom to accredit him. Some members of the Cabinet are for sending him to the Court of Count THIERRY, who is known as King by the title of CHARLES I. ; while others are for recognizing the sovereignty of the confederation of chiefs at the head of whom is the celebrated POMARE. The grave deliberations of the Council upon this subject would form an admirable subject for a humourous sketch in the Charivari. The reported intentional retirement of the Mi nister of War and the President of the Council is ridiculed by the Courrier Francais, who assures us that whatever others may think of SOULT'S abili ties, he entertains himself the complacent conviction that he is quite equal to the duties of a President of the Council and Foreign Minister. We never had the least doubt of this ; and believe with our Gallic Contemporary that he will hold office as long as ever he can. His colleagues are not more re markable for a modest appreciation of their respec tive talents and pretensions than is the Marshal himself, so that he runs no risk of being deserted. Love marriages even among Princes are happily not altogether out of date, as is very satisfactorily proved by the following extract of a letter from Frankfort, of the 27th ult., published by the Cour rier Francais : " We learn from an undoubted source that the young Count Neipperg, son by the first wife of the late Count, who was formerly Governor of Parma and Placentia, and afterwards married the widow of the Emperor Na poleon, is affianced to the Princess Mary, daughter of the King of Wurtemberg and the Grand Duchess Ca tharine of Russia, his wife, sister of the Emperor Ni cholas. The young Princess was so deeply enamoured of the handsome young hussar officer, that her health suffered severely from the opposition made to her union with a personage below her own rank. The King, her father, who loves his children with the most tender af fection, soon yielded his consent ; but that of the Em peror Nicholas was not obtained without great difficulty, and was at last granted only at the entreaty of the Arch duchess Maria Louisa. The Count will be raised by the Emperor of Austria to the rank of Prince, and, after his marriage, will reside at Louisburg, near Stutt gard. The Princess will have a dower of 60,000 florins a year, coming chiefly from the property of her mother." THE HAGUE, Nov. I.—We learn (says the Han delsblad) that according to arrangements made with the German Diet, the part of Limberg that remains to the Netherlands will be subject to the legal jurisdiction of our Government. The Minister of Finance will make to-day in the Second Chamber, a communication respecting the negotiations that have taken place with the German Diet. VIENNA, OCT. 2.s.—The Archduke Charles, accom panied by his sons, has returned from his estates in Moravia. Their Imperial Highnesses went and re turned by the iron railroad. It is generally believed that Don Carlos will soon arrive at Salzburg, and will fix his abode in that city. Prince Metternich is ex pected at the end of the month. Count Figuetant is ill and keeps his bed. We learn from Parma that her Majesty the Duchess Maria Louisa, is seriously ill. The Imperial Court will return to Vienna from Schon brunn on 29th of this month. BOURSE.—PAms, SATURDAY, NOY. 2. First Highest Lowest Last Price Price. Price. Price.

COAL INioNoroLY—A correspondent who expresses great approbation of the Lord Mayor's conduct, in his war against the coal monopolists, states that he has reason to be. l ieve a considerable sum raised by penny subscriptions fora niece of plate to his Lordship remains on hand, and suggests" that it should be paid over to the Committee, about to be Appoitited in the City, to confer some testimonial on the Lord Mayor for his ge neral good conduct in office. THIODON'S THEATRE OF ARTS.—A para graph having appeared in several newspapers extracted from the Gateshead Observer, informing the public that Mr. Thiodon had disposed of his ingenious Exhibition, we are called on positively to contradict the statement. Mr. T. is at present in this neighbourhood, and will leave in a few days for Ireland, where he will open his Mechanical and Picturesque Theatre qf Arts, imme diately on landing. We believe Mr. T. feels disposed to treat with any party who may have a desire to pur chase the Exhibition, and we think it would be a good speculation.—Devonport Ina'ependfnt. ERRATUAL—In our Saturday's r.:port of a trim in the Queen's Bench, " the Queen v. Watts," wk have given Mr. Watts's name as "Alaric Attila," whereas it should be " Alaric Alexander." By a decree dated in June, 1834, the payment of duties on imports into New Granada was regulated according to following scale of time and amount : When they amout to 30 dollars, the payment was to take place in three days from the date of verification ; from 50 to 500 dollars in amount, in 30 days ; from 500 to 1,000 dollars, in 30 days ; from 1,000 to 2,000 dollars, the one half in 50, the other in 100, days ; from 2,000 to 4,000 dollars, half in 75, the rest in 150 days ; for 4,000 dollars and above, one-third each in 75, 150, and 225 days. By a decree of Congress of the 12th May in the present year, sanctioned by the executive power, these terms have been thus modified :—For amounts of duty which do not exceed 16 dollars, the payment must be made in three days ; six months for the first ' half of the sums which shall exceed 16 dollars, and six months more for the other half. It will be seen that these modifications are all to the advantage of the importer by their simplicity, which leaves him more free from Custom-house complications in his transac tions with purchasers. By another and anterior decree the shipping, as well as the natural products and manu factures of Spain under its flag, are to be subject to no other duties in the ports of New Granada than such as are payable if under the flag of the republic itself. PLACARD CARRYING.—The police have given notice that on and after the Ist of January next the clause in the act prohibiting the carrying placard-boards about the streets will be rigidly enforced. SUICIDE IN THE GILTSPUR-STREET COMP TER.—On Saturday a person of respectable appearance went to the London Coffee-house, Ludgate-hill, and some silver spoons, and was given into the custody of partook ciws of ney,N s o o . m . :7 C fr i e t s y hment, after which be pocketed Police, cofv eyed Nest. h imto the Compter, where be gave iis wio name s James ' lie was placed in the charge ward with other prisc..ners, , but during the night be committed suicide by hanging himself.

ARCIIIBALD BOLAM.—It appears front the, Report of the Finance Committee of the borough 01 Newcastle, map on Wednesday, that the costs in curred in the prosecution of Bolam amounted to 3,5801., which must be paid out of the borough fund. We are happy to state that the in-gathering of that invaluabfe esculent , the potatoe, has t been com pleted throughout the West of Scotland under the most favourable circumstances, and that the crop is a full average.

The LORD CHANCELLOR at the conclusion of the arguments, stated that he would dispose of it on Wednesday. men at the Bar, against the application made on Satur day by Mr. Sergeant Wilde [which it will be recollected was that the ancient practice should be revived, of hearing Sergeants only in this Court]. Chief Justice TYND kL—Had you not better wait for our decision ? We cannot take the suggestion of any individual member of the Bar. Mr. MILLER—My Lords, I should wish to offer a few remarks, if your Lordship will not give an oppor tunity of hearing some more influential member of the Bar. Chief Justice TYNDAL—You are quite premature, before we have given any answer, even a preliminary one, to the application of the Sergeants, were we to listen to any member of the bar, who may choose to rise, we may have to listen to the whole bar, seriatim.— (Laughter.) If you require the assistance of the bar, we will call for it. Mr. MILLER—I hope your Lordships will not pre clude me, as a humble member of the bar, from speak ing in defence of my rights, which I conceive to be en dangered. Chief Justice TYNDAL—If we wish your observations we will call upon you. Mr. ISIILLER sat down. EXCHEQUER COURT. (THIS DAY.) The Court was occupied the whole of the morning with cases in the Peremptory paper. The points ar gued were wholly of a technical nature and of no public interest. MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, SATURDAY.—We have had a fair demand for Cotton to-day, and yester day's prices have been obtained ; the sales 3,000 bags. Arrivals this morning : Lisbon mail by the Braganza, sailed from Gibraltar, October 24 ; Cadiz, October 25 ; Malta, October 14 ; Lisbon, October 28 ; Oporto, October 29 ; three French mails and two Ostend. The private intelligence by the Lisbon mail this morn ing, is not of much importance, with the exception that the Portuguese bondholders have no chance at present of being paid their dividends. It is expected that the next Session of the Cortes promises to be one of great interest when the question of the foreign debt will then be set at rest, and convince the bondholders of the hopelessness of their case. It was stated at Lisbon, that the Government was about to send a circular round to all the Foreign Ministers there, on the subject of the dispute with England respecting the, Slave trade. From the Journal of Antwerp of yesterday's date : " To-day a communication will be made to the Second Chamber by the Minister of Finances relative to the negotiations which took place with the Germanic Diet. The day before yesterday the section of the Second Chambers of the States' General assembled, and yester day they commenced to examine the project of the , financial law. " According to the report on the situation of the Colo nies of the Society of' Bieqfilisance during the last month, the state of health was favourable, and the crops were good ; to September the population of these colonies amounted to 8,511 persons, and the prece ding month there were admitted 2.56 persons." We read in the correspondence of the Handelsblad, from Brussels, that there has been made on the part of Austria strong representations to our Cabinet on the non-execution of the article 13 of the treaty of the 19th of April, 1839, that the sum required from Hol land amounted to eight millions, a sum which is sup posed by the Commission of Utrecht to be exaggerated, as it has nevertheless been discovered that an acknow ledged debt could not be liquidated with one that was acknowledged ; we believe the Belgian Government will even pay the arrears due from the Ist January, 1838. AMSTERDAM, Nov. I.—Dutch Funds—Two-and-a- Half per Cents, 51 3-16 ; Five per Cents., 98i ; Ar doin's Spanish, 27k. THE FUNDS. We are again exceedingly short of arrivals this morn ing, but more particularly from the westward. The non-arrival of the Liverpool steamer, which is expected to bring some important intelligence in respect to com mercial affairs, has greatly disappointed the merchants who are connected with the United States, but the wind having changed to the south-west we may expect in a day or two the arrival of the above vessel. The report that money is expected to become very scarce in a few days, and that the Bank of England are going to contract their circulation, and take loans of money at the rate of 6 per Cent., has rather caused some alarm in the City to the monied in terest, in consequence of which the Funds opened heavy this morning.

THE DRUNKARD'S END.—A Coroner's in quest was held on Friday evening at the Thatched House Tavern, Lower-road, Islington, before Mr. Wakley, on the body of William Weeden, aged thirty five years. The jury, having been sworn, proceeded to 33, Ward's-place, to view the body. The room in which it lay presented an appearance truly wretched and disgustin g . It was in a most filthy state, and con tained only abroken stool and about a sack of shavings, on which the deceased, his wife, and their four children had lain for the last three months, with no other cover? ing than a very small blanket. The intemperate habits of the deceased, whose favourite beverage was " eight penny" ale, which he drank in large quantities, and those of his wife, whose libations or 09 were equally copious, and who died raving mad on Monday last, had reduced them to their deplorable condition.

Verdict--" ROLL'S COURT.----(THIS DAY.) The Court this day took petitions. The unopposed, which were heard first, occupied the attention of the Master of the Rolls the greater part of the morning. Consent causes, short causes, and consent petitions will be taken every Tuesday at the sitting of the Court. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT. (THIS DAY.) His Honour the Vice-Chancellor proceeded with mo tions to-day. PRICE V. WRIGHT.--INJUNCTION. Mr. KNIGHT BRUCE applied ex• parte in this case for an injunction to restrain the defendant and his agents from selling by public auction or private sale, certain real estates belonging to the plaintiff, or from receiving the rents thereof. From the statements of the Learned Counsel, supported by the affidavit of the plaintiff, it appeared that the plaintiff being embarrassed in his cir cumstances, in the year 1829, made a conveyance of his property to trustees for the benefit of his creditors, of whom Mr. Wright was now the only act in.. one. Very few creditors came in under that deed, and the affidavit of the plaintiff swore positively that Mr. Wright had received from the property of the plaintiff more than sufficient to pay the debts, and that he firmly believed there was great danger of the rents being lost if the defendant was allowed to continue to receive them. The affidavit of the plaintiff further stated that on the 13th of last month he received an intimation from his son of the intention of the defendant to put the property up to sale by auction on the sth of the present month. This being the case the present application was made for the purpose of restraining him from doing so. His HONOUR granted the injunction. QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.) THE QUEEN V. THE STEWARD OF THE MANOR OF RICH MOND. Lord DENMAN gave judgment in this case, which was an application for a mandamus to admit a party to certain copyhold property in the manor. A preliminary objection had been taken on Saturday by the Attorney- General, on the ground that. the Queen, who was lady of the manor, had not been included. The Court was of opinion that the objection could not be sustained, and therefore the rule for the mandamus must be made absolute. LANE V. MULLINS. Mr. KNOWLES moved in this case, which was tried before Mr. Justice Coleridge at the last Middlesex Sittings, for a rule to set eside the nonsuit or for a new trial. It was an action on a bill of exchange for 1,1251., accepted by the defendant. and payable three months after date. To the first count the defendant had pleaded specially, and to which the plaintiff had de murred, and on argument judgment had been given for the plaintiff. It appeared that on the trial the bill was put in, when it was found not to be on a sufficient stamp, and the plaintiff was nonsuited. The Learned Counsel contended that the defendant by his plea having admitted the bill and the stamp, the objection taken at the trial could not prevail. COURT—Take a rule. - THE QUEEN V. THE ♦ESTRY OF THE PARISH OF ST. PANCRAS, In this case a rule - ladbeen obtained, calling upon the vestrymen and churchwardens of the parish of St. Pancras to show cause why a writ of mandamus should not issue, calling upon the defendants forthwith to ap point a day for holding a meeting of the parishioners, for the election of vestrynien and auditors of accounts for said parish for the year ending May 1840, pursuant to the provisions of the Ist and 2d Wjll. IV., cap. 60. Sir F. POLLOCK now appeared to show cause ag a i ns t the rule. If the present application was entertained by the Court, everything that had been since done in the parish was improperly and illegally done, including the appointment of directors of the poor, who were no minated by the vestrymen, and whose duty it was to make rates, all of which would be deemed void, and the affairs of the parish thrown into inextricable confusion. The Act required that eight inspectors of votes should be appointed, four by the churchwardens, and four by the parishioners in meeting assembled ; and it was con tended, on the other side, that the Chairman had not selected the persons for that office who had the majo rity of votes. The Learned Counsel proceeded at some length to detail the proceedings that had taken place at the election, and contended that they had been strictly legal throughout. BAIL COURT.-(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE.) ADMISSION OF ATTORNEYS. Mr. HUMPHREYS made an application on behalf of a gentleman who had applied to be admitted as an at torney, under the following circumstances. By the rules of the Court it is requisite that three days' notice shall be given before the term preceding that at which the individual seeks to be admitted. This notice had been given in the present case, and the gentleman's name appeared on the bill of applicants for the term. Two day's, hootever, before the commencement of the term this gentleman's sister, who resides at Derby, was taken seriously ill, and he could not attend during the present term, and he (Mr. Humphreys) now moved that the admission be postponed until next term. The difficulty in the case was this, whether it was not ne cessary that notice should have been given three days before the commencement of the present term of the gentleman's intention to apply next term. He (Mr. Humphreys) apprehended the spirit of this rule had been completely complied with. His LORDSHIP did not pee why the gentleman could not attend during the present Term. If only a day or two remained it would be a different matter. He did not think a sufficient case had been made out to induce him to deviate from the rule, as the illness was not stated to be of such a nature as to prevent the gentle man's attendance. Mr. Humphreys withdrew the application, and said that he would renew it at a later period of the Term, if necessary. His Lordship then sat at nisi Arius, when the fol lowing cases were disposed of : LAMBERT V. COOKE. The plaintiff in this case is a saddler and harness maker residing in Long Acre, and the defendant a horse -dealer in Bedfordbury, Covent-garden. The action was brought to recover the sum of 481. 2s. 6d. !'ter goods sold and delivered. Mr. _tionatils, who appeared for the plaintiff, proved the delivery t.;! A variety of articles and the acknow ledgment of the del,: th i 6 defendant, and the Jury found for the amount claimeu. The following cases were also tinlefended :—Wilson v. Sherwood, on a bill of exchange, damages 361. lo..; Barker v. Harvey, on a mortgage deed, damages 133/. 15s. ; Thompson v. Smith, on a of exchange for 251. 10s. ; Smith v. Lindsey, on a bill of egelloge, and for work done, damages 891. 10s. ; Doe v. 3ham berlain, to recover the value of the possession of the Gun Tavern, High-street, Shoreditch, from the 25th of March 1838 until May 3, 1839, together with the costs of recovering possession, damages 681. 17s. Bd. ; Haynes v. Marshall, on a bill of exchange, damages 281. 103. COMMON PLEAS-(THIS DAY.) lIARRISON V. FANS—LITERATURE V. HORSEMANSHIP. Mr. Sergeant TALFouan said this was a case tried at Oxford before Mr. Jnstice Williams. The verdict was for 121. 10s., and he now moved to set it aside, and for a new trial on the ground that it was a perverse verdict, and contrary to the direction of the Learned Judge. The action was brought by a livery-staple keeper of Oxford, against a young gentlemen of the University, for the hire of horses and gigs in 1837. There was a plea of infancy, and a replication of neces saries. The young gentleman's father was possessed of considerable fortune (this being his younger son), and allowed him to keep a horse. The amount claimed was for the hire of horses, for part of the time, his own hav ing been unfit to be ridden ; and as he had once taken it after his father's hounds, this was insisted on as showing the father's knowledge and consent. But the Learned Sergeant observed that this could not now be the question ; the point was, w hether the claim was made for necessaries or not. The question of neces saries was sometimes purely one of fact, and sometimes pf fact united with law. The Learned Judge had in the present case given it as his decided opinion that the claim was pot for necessaries, remarking that he never heard of mounting Parnassus upon horseback.—(Loud ILaughter.) There was no case which could show, that for an under graduate at a 4niyersity—having a horse, " too, or ' 44 own—it was necessary to keep lorses and gigs.—Rule to show . granted, THE SERGEANTS V. THE BAR. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE having called upon ! he Sergeants, proceeded to go through the bar ; com mencing (he happening to be the senior Barrister pre sent) with Mr. MILLER, who said_My Lords, I had rather not, if your Lordships' please, be heard upon sufferance ; and I beg to suggest that the Attorney-General, as the head of the bar, be heard on behalf of the Gentle- THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.) CORN-EXCHANGE. Lsst week's arrivals of English Grain and Flour were small, but the quantity of Foreign Wheat and Oats was good. The fresh supply of every description of Corn was unusually short for this season of the year.

The quantity plit up at the October sale was 2,605,038 lbs. The kinds sold were of irregular descriptions, called odds and ends, which is no criterion whatever for the market. The attendance of the trade was but very moderate. DREADFUL MURDER AT KEIOHLEY.—This I retired town, whose name is little heard of in the dark records of crime, was on Wednesday night roused from its quietude by the report, which proved unfortunately to be too true, that a young woma❑ had been murdered by her brother, and in her father's house. The circum stances of this unhappy affair, which we have endea. voured to obtain as correctly as possible, we will endeavour to lay before the reader :—James Burton, who is a shoemaker, has hitherto occupied a dwelling in King-street. He has been a widower some years, having residing with him a son about 30 years of age, and a daughter about 25. The son, whose name is Charles, followed his father's occupation, and worked in the house. He has not continuously resided at home, but at times has been in the habit of seeking work in other places. He has also at times been far from cheerful in his disposition, and has often been thought not perfectly eompos mentis by neighbours and friends. The unfortunate sister, whose name was Elizabeth, is represented to us as a remarkably fine girl in person, and distinguished for neatness and cleanliness, with an amiable and unassuming disposi tion. It has been the habit of the father to take his pipe in the evening to a neighbour's house, and he went out as usual about eight P st. He took his pipe with him, and repaired to a ntighbour's house. What occurred before the murder was committed, and after the father's departure, is totally unknown. The interval between his departure and the murder was exceedingly short. The murder took place above stairs, and the body was found on the floor with the bead nearly se vered from it. The unfortunate girl was lying on her side, and from the fact of her hands being much cut and disfigured, it is imagined that she struggled very much before the murderer effected his purpose. Two knives, such as shoemakers use, were found near the body, both covered with the blood of the unfortunate girl. The discovery was made by a boy calling to get measured for a pair of shoes ; and, receiving no answer, he went into the next house, and there found the father, who returned with him, and thus discovered the murder. The murderer at first hid himself behind a wall, and after wards gave himself up without resistance.—Abridged from the Bradford Observer. RIOT.—THE MILITARY CALLED OUT.— About 12 o'clock last evening, we were considerably surprised by information that the military were called out to suppress a riot, alleged to have taken place in one of the wards. From the best information we have obtained on the subject, it appears that in Queen-street ward rather a close contest is likely to take place, the candidates being Mr. Eckersley, one of the oldest and most respectable manufac turers in the town, and Mr. Borland, on the Conserva tive side ; and Mr. John Dobb and Mr. Acton, on the Radical side. During the week a good deal of excitement has prevailed in the ward, and for the last few evenings parties of men, armed with bludgeons, have paraded the streets, and the most wanton and diabolical assaults have been committed on the peaceable inhabitants of the town. The other evening a most respectable Ind vidual was knocked down and beat at his own door ; and on Weilnesday night another person, who, with two or three friends,• was on his way home, was at tacked by the same armed party, and kicked and assaulted in a most shameful manner. This was no longer to be borne, and in consequence a great number of hardy fellows armed themselves, and last evening peram bulated the streets, and in order to prevent the declared intentions of the Dobbites from stealing and "bottling" (to use Mr. Ewart's elegant phrase) Conservative voters. About midnight the parties met in Queen street, words passed, and blows were soon had recourse to. One man, a Conservative, named Crook, who re sides in Brotherton's-row, had his head very much cut, was dreadfully kicked on his body, and conveyed to Mr, Pennington's,surgeon,in a dangerous state. This so exaspe rated the hardy fellows above alluded to, that they in return made a sally on the armed party said to be in the employ of Mr. Dobb ; a regular fight was the conse quence, which ended in the discomfiture of the Radi cals, who, finding matters were assuming a serious as pect, fled in all directions. In consequence of this, infor mation was given to the Mayor, who immediately called out the military, proceeded with them to the spot, and read the riot act ; the crowd who were assembled in the street either dispersed or entered the public•houses in the neighbourhood, and the military paraded the street for nearly two hours, after which they visited, headed by the Mayor, most of the public-houses, which they cleared of the company in them, and then marched to the barracks --Wigan Gazette. HORSE STEALING.—A man, named William Moles, charged with stealing a horse, the property of Thomas Burley, a small farmer, at Maresfield, Sussex, was fully committed for the offence at Croydon, yester day. The robbery was discovered in a rather cur ious manner. It appeared that Burley, in addition to farm ing a small quantity of land, is occasionally employed by Mr. Shelly, the race-horse breeder and trainer, who resides near Maresfield, and he had been entrusted by that gentleman to take two brood mares to London, and when he left his home, his own horse was safe in a pad dock close by. He stopped to bait at the Half Moon, on the Godstone road, and while he was there the ostler told him that a suspicious looking man had just put up with a horse, which he had good reason to believe had been stolen somewhere out of the county, and he wished Burley to go and look at the horse. Burley at first refused, saying it was no business of his, bqt he at length consented, and on going into the atAble, be was surprised to find his own horse, LOOT LE V EN.--,,The origin of the name Loch Leven is somewhat curious. It arose from the circum stance of the number eleven frequently occurring in matters connected with the lake. As already men tioned, it is eleven miles in circumference ; the lands of eleven lairds at One time embraced its waters ; there are eleven rivers and streams running into it ; it contains eleven kinds of fish ; and in the adjoining plantations are eleven kinds of wood. The name was, therefore, originally, Loch Eleven ; but in the course of time the E was omitted as at present.—il'aas and Wanderings in the World of Literature, by the Author of "The Great Metropolis." THE HUNTING SEASON.—That period which, to some ardent spirits, is worth all the rest of life, the Hunting Season, is now close at hand. Next week will see nearly every pack in full activity, and if the corning season should prove in effect what appearances give us reason to hope for, Leamington will scarcely 'o s , exceeded by any rival in the attractions she h ave for the lovers of " the noble science," Tile Warwick ,,y't'i; every prospect o f 4 shire Hunt this year opens brilliant reason.

Aftertlo NOBLE RESISTANCE TO TEMPTATION.-"' Thursday morning last, a boy who lives in Williams" burgh, found a pocket-book, containing 401. On show ing it to his master, he was told to take it to his mother, who, though a very poor woman, never for a morner,t thought of converting any part of it to her own use ; on the contrary, she immediately proclaimed it by the town-crier. So poor was she, that she had not money wherewithal to pay his fees, and deemed the money too sacred to touch ; but such honesty could well be trusted, and the crier proclaimed on credit. The woman, troubled in mind with the care of such a treasure, deli vered it to a gentleman in town, who, on examining the book, found from the marriage lines contained in it, that the owner was a Mr. Graham, a teacher in Glas gow, who had been married on the Monday before, and who was on the point of embarking for Berbiee. This afforded a clue, and yesterday the gentleman set off for Glasgow in quest of the owner. On arrival there he found he had departed for Greenock, and after leaving a message for the factor, whom Mr. Graham had ap pointed to wind up his affairs, he returned home. In the afternoon, the factor came to Paisley, received the money, and left .51. to reward the poor woman w hose son had found it.—Paisley Advertiser of Saturday.
