eft a few days after the action which took place near that town. The details of this affair, given by the officers, are entirely similar to those we have already communicated to our eaders. MONEY-MARKET, &c., DEC. 18. The stock market to-day has evinced a further tendency to improvement, a large business having been transacted at prices in many instances showing a considerable advance on previous sales. United States Bank closed at 1211 ; Dela ware and Hudson ' 724 • Harlem Railroad 461; Boston and Providence 1051 ; and Stonington Railroad 24, &c. The demand for Sterling Bills for transmission by the Liverpool packet leaving to-morrow, has been very moderate, and the market having become comparatively well supplied, a decline of about -1 per cent. was fully established; the sales effected were at 91 to 91 per cent. premium, the former rate chiefly for Southern Bills. On France sf. 17 c. is otstained. A letter from Vicksburg, dated the 4th instant, states that the Convention of Mississippi Banks, which bad assembled in that city for the purpcse of deciding on a day for the resump tion of specie payments, bad adjourned, without having agreed on any definite period for a resumption. The Old River Banks would, however, probably resume on the Ist of January. The same letter states that the bills of the Brandon Bank had ceased to circulate, and that the institution was collecting its debts very fast, and would probably assume a little footing in spring. The State Bank of Illinois has declared a dividend of 4 per cent. for the last six months, receivable by stockholders in Now York at the Phoenix Bank. The Commercial and Rail road Bank of Vicksburgh has also divided 5 per cent., pay able to the stockholders in New York, at the same place after the Ist proximo. The monthly statement of the condition of the New Orleans Banks to the 3d instant has been published, from which it appears that the circulation of the sixteen banks on that day was 6,290,553 dollars, deducting from which, the notes held by the different banks themselves, say 1,723,244 dollars, would give an actual circulation of 4,567,309 dollars. The specie held by the banks is stated at 3,987,697 dollars. The above statement, as compared with that made on the sth of November, shows a diminution in the circulation of the banks equal to 223,480 dollars, and an increase in specie of 161,637 dollars. The Savannah Cotton Market for the week ending Bth in stant had been more active, and prices of Upland had improved about ie. The sales of the week amounted to 7,665 bales, at 10 to 131 e. Sea Island was nearly nominal, only a few bales having changed bands. Stock in port 19,954 bales Upland, and 87 bales Sea Island. HIGH WATER AT LONDON BRIDGE TO-MORROW. Morning. 2lminutes after 71 Evenir, 44 minute, after 7 BRAZIL. We have received by the Ann Smith, Captain Crawford, from Rio Janeiro, the Journal do Commercio, published in that city, to the 22d of October last. On the 20th of that month the Regent opened the Sessions of the General Legis lative Assembly with a speech, in which he congratulates that body on the good health which the Emperor enjoyed, on the suppression of the insurrection in Para, and expresses a hope that the troubles in Rio Grande will soon be allayed. The French corvette Dordogne had arrived at Rio from Brest, having on board M. Buchet de Martigny, appointed Consul- General to the Argentine Republic. This gentle man, it is added, had formerly resided at Buenos Ayres, and it was hoped would be able to bring to an amicable termina tion the difficulties existing between Buenos Ayres and France. Tie publication of THE SUN NENNSPAPER commenced this day at 30 minutes past Three o' Cock. DREADFUL HURRICANE OFF MAZATLAN. The following important communication has been received at New Orleans via Vera Cruz, by the United States cutter, Woodbury :—__ " Consulate of the United States of America, " MAZATLAN, Nov. 6. " Sir,—l have to inform you that one of the most violent hurricanes took place on the Ist instant within the recollec tion of the oldest inhabitants. The whole of the shipping was lost, and driven on shore. " The following American vessels were wrecked and driven on shore, viz. : _ _ _ " Brio. Griffin, Boston, totally wrecked, with loss of captain ; brig Mary, New York, totally wrecked, with loss of second mate and steward ; brig Splendid, of New York, driven on shore, and bas been condemned, and will be sold on account of whom it may concern ; brig Indus, of New York, driven on shore, and since got off, and will probably be repaired sufficiently here to enable her to proceed to a port for further repairs. " I have 45 destitute American seamen on my hands, one half of the number badly wounded, without clothing or any of the comforts of life. I have actually beQn obliged to fur nish clothing from my own wardrobe, not being able to find any ready made in the place. " The want of time prevented me from giving the details of this unfortunate occurrence to the department of State by this post, having been employed both day and night saving the wrecks, &c. _ _ " I have the honour to be your obedient servant, JOHN PARROTT. " Win. D. Jones, Esq., United States Consul, Mexico." THE DUCHESS OF WURTEMBERG. PARIS, FRIDAY. -I have just seen a communication from one of the most distinguished confidents of his Majesty, Louis Philippe. It is a billet written this morning in haste, an nouncing that the news from the young and interesting Duchess of Wurtemberg, received last night, was of an alarming de v..:ription, and that the information added by the estafette this morning is such as to remove almost every hope. It describes the sorrow of Louis Philippe to be most poignant, to which his excellent consort adds the still more harrowing feelings of a mother at the prospect of losing a favourite daughter. Al though the writer of the note in question is a courtier, there is something too unstudied and too graphic in his description to allow one to doubt for an instant how heart-rending is the grief of the Royal family. Surrounded on all sides by false friends, impelled by mere interest, and by enemies the most persevering and implacable, that family has drawn every day closer links of the most unbounded affection. There is little rea son to doubt that this distressing news will soften very much the asperity of the French Press towards the real directing head of the governini power. Not only will it restrain writers from that reference for public bienseance as regards feelings which, amidst their faults, no nation maintain more rigidly than the French, but the young and interesting Duchess was looked upon as a flower whose lovely and captivating qualities were due to the soil of la belle France, in which she grew, and of whom it behoved all Frenchmen to be proud, as they are of all that belongs to their native land. The dying Princess, by studying and excelling in the arts, as shown in her admirable statue of Joan of Arc, took the feelings of the nation, wor shippers of art even unto fanaticism, by their most accessible side. Artists and poets, receiving the guileless praise of one, herself so gifted as well as so affable, exhaled their flattered amour propre in sincere encomiums, which circulated through all classes of Eau nation. Their French Majesties have eight children at th ) moment living—the Dukes of Orleans, Ne mours, the Prince de Joinville, Dukes of Aumale and Mont pensier, the Queen of Belgium, the dying Princess, and the still unmarried Princess Clementine. But they have already experienced great bereavement at an early period of their married life, having lost a child three months old, another of two years, and one of seven years of age. The Duchess Alexander of Wurtemberg is in the flower of age, being only in her t6th year. ASSASSINATION of LORD NORBURY. The victim is no more. Lord Norbury died about twAve o'clock last Thursday. A Leinster paper has the following particula:s : " The Surgeon-General arrived from Dublin on Wed nesday, and extracted two swan-drops from the ;eft breast, but the lungs ha'ing been perforated by two slugs, and his Lordship being in a very weak state, it was impossible to proceed with any further operation—indeed, the Surgeon- General was of opinion that be could not long survive. Doctor Pierce from the commencement rendered the most prompt attention, and had very little hopes of his Lord ship's recovery. t‘ A man who had been in the employment of the Earl of Norbury, as watchman, and who was discharged fur misconduct, about five weeks since, has been arrested by Mr. T. Howard, C.C., Tullamore, (having received a de scription of the assassin from Lord Norbury's steward) without any previous knowledge of the man. The person charged has been committed to Tullamore gaol, for further examination." On Friday an inquest was had. The steward was examined, and described the murder, but nothing elicited beyond what has already appeared. The Jury found a ver dict of " Wilful Murder against some person or persons u:.known." The Lords Justices have issued a Proclamatiou for the discovery of the murderer, viz.:- 5001. for prosecuting to conviction the person who fired the shot. _ _ _ 3001. for such information as would lead to conviction. 200/. for private information. Lord Oxmantown, the Lieutenant of the King's County, has addressed a circular to the Magistrates, requesting them to meet next Thursday, " To consider the measures proper to be adopted, in consequence of the atrocious out rage committed on the person of the Earl of Norbury." The preceding statement comprises all the facts posi tively known. The Dublin Evening Mail of Friday, recklessly and falsely observes that the crime of murder, and particularly the murder of Lord Norbury, has been " connived at, if not encouraged, by the Government." It adds, that it has been " undisguisedly recommended by the priests and the demagogues," and "shamefully advocated by a certain portion of the Press, supposed to reflect the opinions of the leaders of the party." The brutality—nay, the ma d ness of this language, ob serves the Post, need not be pointed out. " What (con tinues our Ministerial Contemporary), were there no mur ders committed in Tory times, still more frightful—the Sheehan murders iu Tipperary—th e murder of the Franks in Cork—the catastrophe at Wild Goose Lodge, in the County of Louth—and did it ever occur, in the fierce Op position of the day, to charge the Government with abetting and encouraging these frightful enormities ? What a set of rascals these people are—nay, what a gang of fools. They even cry out for Martial Law ! They might as well cry out for a war with Louis Philippe, or the Czar Nicholas. Theft appears to be on the increase in Berlin. According to the latest returns.there are now no less than 500 individuals in prison for robberies of various kinds, and the number increases weekly. The greater part of the pri soners are under 20 years of age. LONDON : MONDAY EVENING JANUARY 7, 1839. From the quarterly account of the revenue, which appears in another part of 7he Sun, it will be seen that, so far from there being a falling off in the quar ter just ended, as the Tory Journalists have exultingly been anticipating, the national income exceeds that of the corresponding quarter of 1837, by upwards of half a million. The principal increase is in the Customs, which department shows a balance of 331,110/. in favour of the last quarter. The amount of increase in the Excise is 36,5261. Under the heads " Taxes" and " Miscellaneous," the increase is respec tively 7,6611. and 6,166/. Crown lands are stated at 40,0001., but there was no such item in the December quarter of the previous year, this source of revenue not having been inserted in the quarterly ab stract until April last. Imprest and other moneys, not included in the ordinary revenue, and consisting in part of repayments of advances for public works, amount to 160,3451. The decrease on the quarter is 34,2771., viz., 28,277/. in the Stamps, and 11,000/. in the Post office. The general result exhibits an increase of 547,3311. on the quarter, and of 1,075.2031. on the year. By the packet-ship Oxford, which arrived at Liver pool yesterday, in eighteen days, from New York, we have received most important news from Mexico and the Canadas. On the 27th of November the French fleet, in the Gulf of Mexico, took Vera Cruz, after an engagement of three hours, in which the Mexicans lost from 400 to 500 men killed, while on the side of the French only four men are stated to have fallen. The heavy loss of the Mexicans was occasioned by the blowing up of the fortress and Castle of San Juan de Ulloa, deemed by the gar rison impregnable. The details will be found at length in another part of The Sun. The news from the Canadas derives a painful interest, from an account of another attack on the peaceable inhabitants by a body of " Sympa thisers," near Sandwich, in which the blood of 18 Loyalists was wantonly shed. Of the rebels, who were about 250 in number, four only were killed, the rest taking to their heels at the first approach of dan ger. Such atrocities are the inevitable result of the infamous system of pretended neutrality pursued by the American frontier authorities. We learn from the North Cheshire Reformer that the Town Council of Stockport has resolved, by only one dissentient voice, to petition Parliament for the repeal of the Corn-laws. Other towns will, we trust, follow that example. It is obvious that the landlords mean to resist the repeal to the utmost, and it will re quire all the exertions of the manufacturing and com mercial classes, backed by the strongest arguments, to succeed. Strong as is the cause of the abolitionists in reason and justice, astounding as are the facts that have been disclosed, and certain as is the comparative decay of the country, unless the laws which curtail the supply of food and stop the increase of the population be repealed, still the Corn-law supporters are so strong in corrupt influence, they are so intertwined with the money interest, with the priesthood, and with other bodies, that to defeat them will be an arduous task. We are sure of success if the inhabitants of the towns zealously unite, but they must not hope for it unles s they are both zealous and united. Mr. GREG'S expression, that manufactures owe no allegiance to the soil, meaning no allegiance tothose who,. by the instrumentality of the soil, tax the manufactu rer's bread, instead of exciting apprehension of national decay by the manufacturers running away, in order to escape the tax, only provoked a little censure, as suggesting the possibility that the plunderers might be defeated. Those who passed the censure, seem to have forgotten that the manufacturers would , in chat case, only imitate many of the landowners themselves. One of the greatest of them—the Duke of BUCCLEUCH—who, according to the Morning Chronicle, has lately raised the rents of his estates 20 per cent., is recently gone to the Continent, to nurse his princely income. Hundreds, perhaps thou sands, of the landlords have continually acted on the same principle since the peace ; and, having made bread and all kinds of living dear here, they have gone to France, Germany, and Italy, to make the incomes they extort by the Corp-laws from a starving people go further. They have imposed a heavy burden on the coun try, but have run away to escape their share of it. I n removing their establishments from Manchester to Chemnitz, or from Birmingham to Eberfeld, our manufacturers will only follow the example of the landlords, with this difference, that the latter go abroad to swill foreign wines largely, and revel in foreign luxuries, while the latter go abroad that they may prosecute with success an honourable branch of art and industry. The Manchester Guardian, which, by quoting only brief and isolated passages from Mr. STEPHENS' speeches, and commenting on them, while it kept the public in the dark as to the character and religious in fluence of the man, has been the chief author of the legal attack so unfortunately, as we think, directed against that gentleman, has taken us to task for " our extravagant stories respecting that town and neighbour hood." We see that the North Cheshire Reformer, the Liverpool Chronicle, and sundry other Provincial Papers of that neighbourhood, copy our reports of the proceedings at Manchester, instead of taking their cue arid their accounts from the Guardian. Our exertions and our reports have lessened its influence in its own neighbourhood, and convinced those who were too much in the habit of relying on it, that staid solemn pompousness is notsynonimous with truth and exertion. We can pardon, therefore, the somewhat splenetic attack of the Guardian, resulting from the diminution of its im portance and value, while we are prepared to show its incorrectness. There have been spontaneous meetings at Brad ford, Stockport, Manchester, Oldham, Bolton, Ashton, Stalevbridge, and a considerable number of other places in the neighbourhood, all within one week after the arrest of Mr. STEPHENS, a dissenting parson, with an income of 2001. a-year. Is this no proof of excitement ? The Magistrates appointed Tuesday f ir his re-examination, but postponed it till Thursday because, as was stated, and not denied, they were fear ful of the consequences of bringing him up on new year's day. Was this no proof of excitement ? What would be thought in London, if the arrest of some dissenting minister were to raise public meetings all over the country ? Why were Bow-street officers and troops of dragoons employed to arrest Mr. STEPHENS, if there was no excitement or apprehension ? The Chronicle of to-day tells us, that there is no reason to be alarmed for Manchester, because there is an im posing military force in the neigbourhood, consisting of six troops of the Queen's Bays, a regiment of infantry, and a rocket brigade. Why was it drawn to that spot if other persons did not fully share our opinion ? In fact the complete command under which the people act, and avoid all kinds of outrage, while they show a deep sympathy for Mr. STEPHENS, as the Spectator remarks, is one of the most dangerous features of the times. If there were not 100,000 men collected in Manchester on Thursday to support Mr. STEPHENS, is was, we are well assured, because the leaders told them to stay at home. The Manchester Guardian has been so long accustomed to the vision of burning mills, and slaughtered factory owners, conjured up by its own fancy, that it has no notion of excitement unles!. it hear the whistling of balls, and see Manchester in a blaze. We have adduced, we think, circumstantial proof enough to confirm all our own observations, and the observations of our Reporter, conceiving that ex citement does not mean outrage and murder, but strong feeling, prompting masses of men to unwonted activity and exertion. Whatever coolness may distinguish the Editor of the Guardian, the facts that the manufac turers of Manchester and its neighbourhood are not flourishing—that the people are arming themselves with pikes and guns—that they are all organized, and move obedient to the call of a few selected leaders—that these leaders are not the master-manufac turers and gentlemen of the neighbourhood, for whom judging by the hisses they put forth opposite to the Chamber of Commerce, we regret to see that they have no attachment, and that the Bible supplies warrants in Lancashire for recommending murder and rebellion —these facts have excited considerable alarm in almost every part of the empire. We might congratulate the Guardian and its abet tors on their temporary success against Mr. STE PHENS and his friends, if we looked no further than this day, but we want to know how the congregated masses of this country, are to be ultimately governed ? Are they to be reduced to complete slavery, or are they to be free ? Year after year the estrangement be tween them and the governing classes, has gone on in creasing—year after year has their hatred to our institutions, and to all legal authority, augmented— year after year has there been a pressing neces sity felt by those who held the reins, to extend more and more, in consequence of that feeling, the system of coercion, till we are to have stipendiary magistrates and an armed police all over the country. Where and when is the system to stop? Day after day, let who will be in power, we see it extending, and the arrest of Mr. STEPHENS, for some spoken words, for time avowal of au opinion, however erroneous, which might perchance operate on the vast in flammable mass of concentrated hatred, is its latest act. Believing, for our parts, that it is impos sible to hold the masses in this state of slavery—im possible to controul them for ever in opposition to their feelings and their interests—convinced that this system must end in their extirpation—horrible thought I —or in a bloody revolution—we deeply regret to see this offspring of Tory misrule nourished and matured by those professing Liberal principles, from whose ascendancy we had fondly anticipated the gradual re demption and ultimate salvation of the State. We have received this morning the verdict of the Court of Assizes of the Department of the Seine, in the long-pending trial of " GISQUET V. the ilfcs sager," which has afforded ample employment for all the gossips in Paris, ail(' all the Administrators in France, for the last fortnight. The proceedings lay bare a system of official villainy which would be pro nounced a libel on humanity were we indebted solely for its exposition to the paces of a modern romance ; and as the whole trial exhibits, in a marked degree, those peculiarities which make up a national rather than an individual character, we doubt not the report which we have given—ample as it may appear—will be read with interest. M. GISQUET'S letter is a romance in itself—a romance which none but a Frenchman could write, and of which none but a Frenchwoman could he the heroine. M. GISQUET, at the mature age of forty-six— the father of a grown family—a Magistrate, a Deputy, and a Member of the Council of State—admits that " not feeling those sweet emotions" in the society cf his wife, " which are the charm of existence," and " wanting food for the sensations of the heart," formed a connection with an infamous strumpet, whose mottle' and friends he corrupted by bribe::, obtained by the scandalous misappropriation of his official patronage ; and afterwards wishing to get rid of her, has the audacity to seek to implicate a respectable married lady in the disgrace of an intrigue with him, in order to procure materials for a quarrel with a woman, whom he failed to drive from him by blows ! The appearance of the pro secutor in the Court was calculated to excite pity in all who were proof against stronger feelings. With the mein of a crest-fallen culprit looking the personi fication of shame, mortification, fear, and despair, there sat the mighty and despotic ex-Prefect of Police, who but one short year ago held the office of guardian of public morality and decorum—th e terror of evil-doers, espe cially among the more unfortunate of the female sex— convicted on his own evidence, of plundering the public to support the extravagance of a woman of the most abandoned character. The verdict of the Jury excited surprise, as well it might ; but to the honour of the Government we record the fact that such a verdict was not called for by the Attorney-General. he Court awarded the minimum amount of damages ; so that in reality the Messager has obtained a signal triumph. As for M. GIsQuET he is doomed to sink into that obscurity from which he never ought to have emerged. The KING has already stricken his name out of the list of Councillors of State, and deprived his son-in-law of the public em ploy.nent which he held. As M. GISQUET is said not to be more criminal than many other public functionaries in France, his ex am pl e may serve as a warning to some of his late colleagues. The Paris Journals of Friday and Saturday have all been received. They bring the Address of the Committee of the Chamber of Deputies, in answer to the Speech from the Throne, a copy of which will be found in another column. In this document the triumph of the Opposition is proved complete. The para graphs relative to Spain, and the evacuation of An cona, embody the foreign political system of M. THIERs-at the same time that they gravely censure the conduct of Count MOLE and his colleagues. There is no news of any political moment from Spain. We regret to announce that the recovery of the Duchess of Wurtemberg (Princess MARY of Orleans) is again pronounced hopeless. Lisbon mails, to to the 31st ult., inclusive, have reached us this morning. The country continued tranquil. The debates in the Cortes were remarkably temperate, as no question of interest engaged the atten tion of the Chambers. MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS. _,~. CITY ( THIS DA Y), 7' WEL VP '.l'r c We have received Jamaica papers to the 4th December. (From the Jamaica Mail.) A meeting of the Privy Council was held at the Queen's House, in Spanish Town, on Tuesday. Several rules and regulations for the government of the prisons were agreed to, and directed to be published for general information. THE ELECTIONS. MANCHESTER.—The old members have been returned with out opposition. DAVID'S.—The old members, we have no doubt, will be returned on Thursday. Westmoreland will be strongly contested. ST. MARY'S.—There are four candidates in the field. It is thought by the knowing ones that the first, Faireweather and Mr. Batty, will be ieturned. . . _ _ . POkTI.AND.-:-.WC believe there is no doubt as to Mr. An • dersou and Mr. Jones being the representatives. ST. JOHN'S.—We have nothin m r , certain. ST. T11014A5-IN-THE- \TALL—There will be a contest in this parish. The Pigeon packet, and the mail.boat from La Guayra, had not arrised at St. Thomas'son the 21st October, but was hourly expected. Business at that island was dull, but it was anticipated would revive dUring the months of November and December. Exchange at that place, 490 to 495 dollars per 100/. The coffee crops at Porto Rico were expected to be good, and early in market. The season has been better and more favourable to the agri cultural districts of the island this year than it has been for the last six or seven years, but unfortunately from the high price of labour and indisposition on the part of the new made freemen to be engaged, the planters and pen keepers have been unable to avail themselves of it for any, profitable purpose. There is an immense deal of planlation and pen work to be done. The intelligence from the north side is interesting. We are gratified at learning from the Cornwall Chronicle that during the past week on some estates near the town of Mon tego lay, and in other parts of the parish, free labour has gone on with good feeling. Extract of a letter from St. Thomas's in the East : " I regret to inform you that the whole of the Morant people have struck work in consequence, it is said, of Mr. James *William being appointed attorney for the absentee pro prietors of that property." Cap. of Good Hope Papers to the 25th Oct. state that the pro , pects of the juvenile emigrants sent out by the Children's Friend's Society was favourable. The conduct of the children had be :n very good, and serious offences among them were of rare occurrence. _ Demerara papers received to the 20th of. November.—The intricate and difficult question respecting the currency had been brought to a favourable decision. The labouring popu lation are represented as being tranquil, and they were work ing well. We have received the Journal of Commerce of Antwerp of yesterday's date. They state from Brussels that M. the Count Merode is to proceed to Paris with a mission from the Go • vernmeut. LIOGE, FEB. 4. —The organization of the Civic Guard hts been formed at Liege. Sunday last the Captains of the four legions were convoked by their respective Colonels for their definitive enrollment. AccL nits received at Nimeguen state that for several days past tl e Prussians have arrived in the villages on the frontier. Althcegh they were expected, their arrival is not as as yet con firmed. The Belgium advanced posts are at look, two leagues from Nimeguen. We have numerous arrivals this morning from all parts of the globe, and up to the present time only a part of the post has been delivered. The chief intelligence is from the United States, by the packet ship Orford, which sailed on the 20th. The American Papers bring the surrender to the French Ad miral of the strong castle of San Juan de Ulloa, after a bombard ment of four hours. The letters from America hate not as yet been received. The news from Canada is of a favourable de scription, the rebels have been defeated in their late attempt to invade Canada, and disper:;ed. One of the chiefs of the rebels has been hung.

They state that the proceeds of the Lisbon Custom House and Excise duties, as well as the Customs at Oporto, for the last month, amount to about 68.5001. sterling, which is a falling off from the sum collected, during the previous month. We have received BArbadoes Papers to the 22d November, which say that the Guiana Chronicle states that 500 seamen have been swept off by the epidemic fever, which had been prevailing for there last sixteen month& The disease which had been so fatal to the seamen, had not been general in the colony, though many respectable individuals, lately arrived from Europe, have fallen.

Two SIIIRPERS CAUGHT.—Two men, who gave their names Brown and Smith, the latter describing himself as a " horse-dealer," were brought before Sir P. LAURIE, charged with having attempted to rob a countryman or 501. ' William Exon, who is a pork butcher, residing at Romford, gave his account of the transaction in the following manner : I came on Satur day with the coach to the Saracen's Head. As I was passing St. Paul's, a man (Brown) came up, and says," Master," says he, " what church is that ?" " Why," says I, " that is St. Paul's." Says he, " I wish you could spare a little time, and show me round—was you ever in there ?" I says, " I have been in, but I can't go in now, for I've business to do in Smithfield." Well, he kept a following me till I came almost into sight of Smith field. " Then," says he to me, " Will you have a drop of something to drink ?" I says, " I don't care if I have one glass of gin," and went into a house with him. As soon as we got inside, he says," What'll you have—six pen'orth of gin and water ?" I says, " I don't care if we do." We had not been there above two or three minutes, before two other men came in, one of whom began to say what a wonderful sight of money had come into his hands." Sir I'. LAURIE—But be is not here. Complainant—No. At last says he, " Where do you come from ?" Says I, " I come from Romford." Says he, " Have you got any poor people much at that place ?" Says I, " I dare say we have." " Well, then," says he, " you'll oblige me if you'll take a 51. note, and buy 51. worth of coals, and give them to the poor there."—(Laughter.) He then says, " Let me put a 5/. note with your money ?" I then pulled it out, and he crambled my purse out of my hand ; and then, thinks I, I have got into a place of thieves.—(Great laughter.) So then I snatched my purse from him and away I goes. Sir P. Laufm—What did the men say when you snatched the purse from them? Complainant—They looked very curious at one another, but I didn't -stay a moment. Sir P. LatratE—They paid for the gin-and-water ? Q;;pmplainant—Yes. Sir P. LAURIE—Then you have done them. —(Laughter.) It's a bad spec. for them.—(Continued laughter.) It appeared from the statemcnt of Burgess, the policeman, who has taken a great deal of trouble in this case, that he was unable to appre. bend the third party. On Smith a 5/. flash-note was discovered. The Prise nen were then remanded. fIOURT JOURNAL GAZETTE of the FASHIONABLE WORLD.—The First Number for 1839 of this ESTABLISHED JOURNAL contains an EXTRA HALF SHEET, with a historical description of WINDSOR CASTLE, accompanied by a splendid Steel Engraving of the GRAND STATE ENTRANCE, from an original drawing, forming No. I. of " The Royal and Noble Residences of Europe,' to be continued monthly. . _ PROOFS ON INDIA, 3s.

EXETER.-SATURDAY. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) The great question of Church and State has been agitated in this city in a small way, but one which will probably prove of much importance as a point of precedent and example to other Corporations. The present Mayor of Exeter, Dr. Macgowan, is a gentle man of education and great respectability. He is a physician in good and fashionable practice, aed in every respect an esti mable and able man. Previous to his election in November last he was scarcely known as a politician, not having taken any active part ia local or general politics, though he was well known as a man of liberal and enlightened views. After his tion the Tories, who had voted for him as Alderman, aid who had not opposed him as Mayor, entered proceedings against him in the Court of Queen's Bench, " in the nature of a quo warranto," and the genuine sytrit of ill nature, for the pur pose of learning by what right he exercised the office of Chief Magistrate. They have since followed that step up by by various acts of petty annoyance, and now their rage is beyond all bounds. His Worship has never yet gone to the Cathedral officially, and Sunday last, being Session Sunday, he declined attending, on the ground that religious profession, in accordance with the Establishment, formed no part of the duty of the Mayor, and that he objected on principle, therefore, to head or join in any ostentatious procession on the Sabbath, as being irreligious and profane. Dr. Macgowan, according to what I have heard, communicated these samples of conscience to the Rev. the Pre centor, and also to the Recorder, in order to show the latter that be intended him no personal disrespect, and that he might receive some instruction on a point of conscience that might set him right. Prom the Rev. Divine he received a formal and brief note, to the effect, as I am told, that he ought to come to the cathedral with the niece or go where he pleased. His Worship did net go to the cathedral, but went, as was his wont, to his own parish church with his family. This is the first instance ehat we have met with in the West of practical separation of Church and State by the civic authorities, and it will prove a heavy blow and great discouragement to our beautiful Prelate, Bishop Phillpots, and the dignitaries of the Chapter, who have had two or three narrow escapes from this catastrophe. You really cannot conceive whtet a state of tribulation they are in. It is the first time on record since the troublous times of the :Commonmealth that both Mayer and mace have been absent, and there is much wringing of reve rend hands and gnashing of episcopal teeth on the occasion. The first Mayor under the new system was an Undarian— a Tory ; and he used to attend at the Cathedral with the mace, and sit and hear himself Athanasianly damned with the most amiable resignation, and there was but small fear of him setting such a dreadful example. Our Mayor last year is a great advocate for the separation of Church and State, a very energetic and able Reformer. He, however, took the advice of friends as to the mode in which he should discharge the duties of the office in relation to this question, and, following their advice, failed tdwin t'lis laurel —and went to church. The Clergy having therefore escaped the two dissensions, never apprehended (lenge: in the present quarter; and you, my dear Sun, who can throw so much light on right reverend sorrows, will perhaps depict in your own pleasant style, the dignified grief that prevailed. Bur, although his Worship refused to go, the Superintendent of Police went, and as he went officially, the Mayor remonstrated with him, and we had a -meeting of the Council to-day on the subject, who decided that the Superintendent of Police was under the authority of the Mayor on all occasions. One dispute in which the question originated, did not come before the Council, but it was understood to be connected with the above business, and the Tories fought very hard against a resolution declara tory of the Mayor's authority over the Superintendent . It is to he hoped that the example set in Bishop Phillpott's episcopal will be followed in all corporate towns throughout the kingdom, as it is manifest that since the repeal of the Test and Corporation Acts, as admitted by all classes of reli gionists, that the Mayor can no longer represent the religion of " the corporate body," which •. having no soul" is not burdened with any religious duties. But the udon of Church and State in the civic body, must necessarily embarrass the conscientious Dissenter; and our Mayor, therefore, iu break. ing through it, is entitled to the sincere thanks of that large mass of his fellow-eitiz?ns who no longer think it necessary, and but believe that it is opposed to the sound principles of civil and religious liberty.

Very little fine Wheat WLS exhibited to-day . and such has obtained last week's rates; for other qualities, lx..th and forein, there wa, a tAuggi , li trade, at hardly s., goof terms as previously.

Pease are firm at last quotations. Goad Oats are still scarce, and maintain their former value, the Irish parcels are chiefly of ordinary quality, and sell slowly, but the factors will not submit to lower rates. Flour continues to meet a good demand, and well sustaics its former value. PRICES ON BOARD 9F SHIP. Wheat, Red (old) s —s. I Beans, Small , new) 0 3s 45i ---....
