SlR,—Finding in the Times newspaper of the 29th instant a letter signed " An Observer," in which, after exhibiting much soreness of feeling at the recent appointment of a Gallant Admiral to the Governorship of Greenwich Hospital, a paragraph is added (by way, I suppose, of addenda) attacking the present Secretary of the Admiralty, Mr. More O'Ferrall, because, forsooth, in his capacity of Secretary to the Board of Admiralty, he has to convey to naval chaplains, as well as to all other officers, the appointments that a mi nute of the Board of Admiralty have made. From the paragraph in question it appears that " the head and front of the offend ing" is, that the Secretary of the Board of Admi ralty is a Roman Catholic, or, in the words of the paragraph, " a Roman Catholic Secretary nomi nates the Protestant Clergymen to her Majesty's ships ;" and goes on to say, " may we not soon ex pect to see Roman Catholic Priests on board our ships ?" Now, Sir, how stands the fact ? By the printed instructions established for the Government of her Majesty's Navy by an Order in Council, it is expressly provided that " Chaplains shall be ap pointed by warrant from the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty only ; but no person shall be warranted as Chaplain who shall not be a Clergy man of the United Church of England and Ireland in Priest's Orders ; and who shall not have produced such certificates of his good conduct and fitness for the station as their Lordships may direct." At the end of the Navy list is to be seen the following re gulation, under his Majesty's Order in Council of the 31st of July, 1835, for the admission of Chap lains into the Naval service :—" No person shall be appointed a Chaplain in the Royal Navy who shall not have been regularly ordained deacon and priest of the United Church of England and Ire land, or who shall not have been. graduated at the University of Oxford, Cambridge, or Trinity Col lege, Dublin ; or whose age shall exceed thirty five years, or who shall hold any benefice with cure of souls, or who shall not produce testimonials from two beneficed Clergymen of his good moral and religious conduct, or who shall not have been examined by some competent person to be appointed for that purpose by the Lords Com missioners of the Admiralty, and be reported by him to be in every respect a fit and proper person to fill with respectability and advantage , to his Majesty's service the situation of Chaplain. Now, Sir, this Order in Council was passed under a Whig Admiralty, and I imagine any un prejudiced mind would consider it a sufficient gua rantee against the introduction of Roman Catholic Priests into her Majesty's Navy, which is pretty broadly insinuated, if not absolutely asserted in the paragraph in question. The vigilance of the Naval Administration does not terminate here, for at the end of the Navy List will also be found an Order (circular), dated 11'ay 23, 1827, from his Royal Highness the Duke of Clarence, when Lord High Admiral, to this effect ;—" His Royal Highness the Lord High Admiral, having appointed the Rev. Samuel Cole, D.D., the Senior Chaplain of Greenwich Hospital, to superintend the issue of religious books to the fleet, and to correspond with the several Chaplains of his Majesty's ships on the subject of their clerical duties, it is his Royal Highness's direction to the Captains and Com manding officers of his Majesty's ships, that they do not suffer any tracts or religious books to be received on board the ships of the fleet, except such as shall have been approved and pointed out by Dr. Cole ; and that they order their respective Chaplains to correspond with Dr. Co!e on all matters relating to the religious instruction given by them to the ships' companies, and generally regarding their sacred duties." This order not having been cancelled re mains in full force, which not only places all naval Chaplains with regard to their clerical duties under the " Chaplain General of the Navy" (the Senior Chaplain of Greenwich Hospital)lbut likewise exer cises a censorship over the religious books that are to be introduced into ships of war ; nor can " An Observer" be ignorant that it is the Chaplain Ge neral of the. Navy who has to examine all candi dates for the situation of Naval Chaplain, and that it is not until a certificate has been produced before the Lords of the Admiralty of the candidate having gone through such order that their Lordships (and not the Secretary, who only countersigns it) can issue a warrant to the candidate. I am not now about to ask whether "An Obser ver" is a clergyman of the Established Church, is an Irishman who was brought up at Trinity College, Dublin, or is a Chaplain in her Majesty's Navy. It is pretty clear if he be the two former that his prin • ciples are those of Orangeism or intolerance ; nor am I intending to inquire whether he has recently received a comfortable appointment from the present Whig Admiralty ; but if it should so hap pen that he be a Naval Chaplain, and came into the Navy as such when the Right. Hon. John Wilson Croker was Secretary, and Lord Mel ville First Lord of the Admiralty, he perhaps is aware that the nomination of Naval Chaplains was claimed by Mr. Croker, and conceded by Lord M., as his (Mr. C.'s) patronage, in order to enable the then Admiralty Secretary to keep his seat for Tri nity College, Dublin ; and hence the introduction of several Irish Chaplains iuto the Navy ; this oc curred previous to the year 1827, when we had a Government par excellence, the Secretary of the then Admiralty insisting on this as his share of the patronage, and for aught " An Observer" knows the Admiralty circular order referred to, of the 31st July, might ha ve b een i mperat i ve l y ca ll e d for obviate ultrat he of a s e mischievous Secretary a r e y ffe a c n t effects t createdhe Firstby theto s n e 18 plus 3 Lord of a Tory Admiralty, which quite overturns " An Observer's" argu ment , and drowns the " No Poaery" cry in her Majesty's Navy. I remain, your obedient servant, A CHURCHMAN. Oct. 31, 1839. [We saw the observation of the Times alluded to by our Correspondent, but it is so replete with ignorance, as well as folly, that we deemed it un worthy of remark. The Secretary of the Admiralty makes no appointments whatever, except, perhaps, those of his own clerks. All the appointments are made by the Lords of tha Admiralty, who, and not the Secretary, are responsible for them. !VII.. More O'Ferrall cannot appoint a boatswain's -mate, much less a Chaplain.] MR. BRADSHAW'S SPEECH.—The Tories of London are trying to escape from the consequences. " Mr. Bradshaw," says the Times, " never uttered the sentiments, nor anything like the sentiments, attributed to him by Whig malignity !" But those sentiments were published in the Kentish Gazette—a Journal which glo ries in being the leading Tory Journal of East Kent, which sent forth his speech with every mark of approval —the " loud cheers"—the " deafening applause"—and all the other terms by which the assembled Tories could be described as testifying their entire approbation and delight, were duly introduced into the report—a refer ence to which will show that in proportion as the sen timents and language rose in violence, the animation and applause of the company became more boisterous, until the welkin rang with their " deafening cheers." The Tories of the provinces are not so chary. The Editor of the Liverpool Mail, whilst he rebukes the London Standard, Times, and other journals for haw , - ing fire, says—" The speech of Mr. Bradshaw, at Can terbury, has apparently given a firmer and bolder tone to the addresses of Conservative and constitutional Englishmen in other parts of the country. Neither the Times nor the Standard (continues the Mail) has yet approached with any fervency the real question. The Queen's only true and faithful subjects (says lie) will protect her against her false and perfidious friends ; and while they establish her throne in dignity and honour, and minister to her happiness and peace of mind, &c. Whatever the Queen may think, or shall be permitted to do by the men and women who environ her, or by the Ministers who make Windsor Palace their hotel, what we have said the Protestants of these realms are prepared and resolved to do. The nation is now most effectually roused."_ - ENGLISH V. FOREIGN HUNTING.—There is Something in fox-hunting peculiarly English. A run w i t h Monsieur is very well for a make shift—a sort of bribe for the longing appetite, till the more fastidious palate of the true British sportsman can be satisfied with the more substantial fare of old England—but it lacks the roast beef bottom—that earnest and reckless gallantry—that every thing which can give a zest to a five-barredgate, or render a quick -set rasper delicious.— Chelmsford Chronicle. The MASTER of the ROLLS next delivered judgment upon the information in respect of Henry Preston's charity. This information prayed for a declaration that the defendants were possessed of certain property de vised by the will of Henry Preston, in trust for the uses expressed in the will, and not for their own use, subject only to the payment, for the benefit of the Company, of two yearly SUMS of 26/. 13s. 4d. and 131. 6s. Bd. ; that it might be declared the great hall of the Company, with the appurtenances thereto, were a part of the charity, and that a scheme might be settled by the Master for the future administration of the rents and profits of those estates. The will under which this re lief was sought was dated the 0 0011 of February, 1434. The defendants a:leged that they had a title in them selves to the property, and his Lordship, on a considera tion of the facts, and having regard to the law at the time, was of opinion th a t th e property in question was ob tained by the Company under an arrangement with Sir J. Cornwall. His Lordship observed that 400 years had now elapsed since the transactions in question took place, and it was difficult, if not impossible to explain every particular of the whole transaction, but he was of opinion that after so long; and uninterrupted a usage, anything that was ambiguous ought to be taken in favour of the Company's title. Being there fore of opinion, that by the grant of the subsequent Statute of James the First, the estate became the property of the Company, the information must be dis missed with costs. Mr. TEMPLE, on behalf of the relators, observed that the defence which the defendants had made, and which had succeeded, was different filmy the defence given before the Charity Commissioners. Probably his Lord ship would, therefore, make a different order with re spect to costs. The MASTER of the ROLLS had read the answer carefully, and was of opinion the information must be dismissed with costs. In the course of the day the Lord Mayor, attended by the Aldermen, Sheriffs, and other civic functionaries, entered the Court, and invited his Lordship to the en tertainment at Guildhall. BAIL COUR7; Nov. 9. (Before Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE.) STOCKDALE V. HANSARD. Mr. KENNEDY applied in this case on behalf of the Sheriff of Middlesex, for a rule to show cause why the execution of the writ of inquiry issued in this case should not be stayed until the Court shall further order. This case was one of so much importance, that he had felt it necessary to apply to the full Court ; but Lord Denman said that they could not depart from the usual practice, and referred him to this Court. There was an imperative necessity upon him to make the mo tion now, as the Sheriff had been directed to execute the writ of inquiry by next Tuesday ; and he accord ingly did so on the affidavit of a most respectable gen tleman, the Under-Sheriff for the county of Middlesex : and from that affidavit his Lordship would see that his client was placed in a position of the utmost danger and delicacy. That affidavit stated, that since the proro gation of Parliament, the plaintiff, Mr. Stockdale, had commenced an action against the defendant ; but that, though it was a different action from that in which their Lordships' judgment bad been given, the subject-matter of it was precisely the same, and the parties were the same ; it was brought for the same libel, and the circum stances were identical. In that fresh action judgment had been allowed to go by default ; and a writ of inquiry had been lodged at the Sheriff's Office, with the warrant from the Queen, commanding the execution of it by the 12th November. The affidavit recited the various resolutions of the House of Commons, and, with the rest, that which declared that the House of Commons should hold all persons who in any way assisted in any proceedings against their printer for the publication of documents published by their authority guilty of a breach of the privileges of that House, and amenable to their dis pleasure ; and further, it recited a notice which had been served at the Sheriff's Office by the solicitors of Mr. Stockdale, acquainting the Sheriff that, in the event of his taking any steps or proceedings against their client, an application would be made to the House of Commons on the subject as soon as it met. These were were the main facts upon which his application rested. His Lordship would see what imminent peril was hang ing over the head of his client, and he prayed of him to interpose the equitable jurisdiction of the Court and re. lieve him from that position. The Sheriff was an officer of the Court, and liable to attachment if he refused to execute the orders of the Court ; but he was also an officer of the House of Commons, who had important functions to discharge with relation to that Assembly, and was amenable to punishment by them. Why was the Sheriff, the Ministerial Officer of the Court, to be placed in such a situation? If he refused to execute the writ he was liable to imprisonment at the suit of the plaintiff: and boy/ long was that imprisonment to last ? Until he paid the debt and costs ; that had been distinctly decided in many cases. The damages in this case were laid at 50,000/. ; was the Sheriff to pay that ? But, even supposing the damages had been moderate, say 1,0001., every boil ) , knew that Mr. Stockdale's object was to try the right, and action upon action would be brought, in all of which the Sheriff must suffer. He expressed no opi nion upon the judgment of the Court of Queen's Bench in the last case ; it might have met with the approval of a majority of the people of this country ; but there was a most influential and powerful part of the com munity which had expressed its disapproval of that de cision. The House of Commons had declared war against that Court, and a Member of that House, who was also one of the greatest ornaments of the bar, had seen to what results that collision must lead, and had not hesitated to tell the House of Commons that they must employ the military force in support and in main tenance of their privileges. What dangers then sur rounded his client? What force had he, were he de termined to execute the writ, emanating from that Court, which would enable him to do so ? Would he have the police ? How could he tell that the Govern ment might not choose to support the House of Com mons, and then the police would be under their con trol? Must he resort to his power of calling upon all persons above the age of fifteen to assist him in the execution of the Queen's writ ? He (Mr. Kennedy) implored his Lordship to consider the frightful conse quences which was likely to result from urging the Sheriff, at present, to execute the writ ; he implored him to interfere with the equitable authority of the Court, and prevent those scenes of confusion and blood shed which had disgraced every part of the country, from being enacted in the metropolis, which bad hi therto, and which he prayed to Heaven, might still escape. He might be asked for what length of time the execution of the writ should be stayed, and therefore it was that he had appended to his motion the words " Until the Court shall further order"—that was to say, until, by the adjustment of the dispute by a conference between the two Houses, or in some other way, their Lordships should be in_ a situation to issue some orders which would not involve an innocent party in such great and imminent peril to his person and property. Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE said he was obliged to go to Chambers at three o'clock, and wished to know whe ther the Learned Counsel would soon conclude his ar gumont. ... Mr. KENNEDY said that he should be obliged to oc cupy his Lordship's attention for a considerable time longer ; and he would, therefore, if his Lordship pleased, resume his argument on Monday. The further hearing of the case was accordingly ad journed to Monday, and the Court rose shortly after wards. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT. EXPECTING AN " ESTATE: —On Friday James Halifax Hart was opposed by Mr. COOKE on the part of Mr. Charles Wood, a builder. The insolvent in the tale of ~ Ten insolventwasasor e tofaMr. " Tittleb a t Tit mouse" Thousand a Y ear ." H e had expected a large " estate ! " and bad made a good Nodimlace,,East use to hims elf of his property in Airshir e . I t appeared that he had been a porter in LFadenhall-market He r ia e n n e te , da houseof Mr. V Walworth, at 16 owed 25/. 18s., which had been incurre d on re presentati ons o f property. The insolvent paid the first quarter and no more. He commenced a series of repr esentations of N /. a o !ye a r in , V He o now large property. He told Mr. Wood that he was heir at-law of an aunt, and entitled to a large estate, He subsequently said Mr. Halifax, a banker, had made a claim. He produced a list of causes in which the name of Hart and Halifax appeared. He said he was going to " Court," but Mr. Halifax had relinquished his claim, and there were only a f ew "forms of law" to go through before he was put into possession • o f hi s " es tate. He further said he should h ave an a d vance o f 100/., and mentioned the names of two persons as his solicitors. II ...e was at length got out of possession of the house he rented, and had b een sue d b y M r . Wood, who had acted as the insolv ent. The of some p ers ons as poor as the The insolvent now said he had no ~ idea" ts here the property was. He met a person named F ox i n the Old Bailey, w h o to ld hi m h e was entitled to property. He did not k now w h ere t o find the afores a i d Fox. He had no solicitors, nor did he expect 100/. H e l'ad been found as a person who would " hear of something to his advantage." Mr. COOKE asked him why he had produced the cause list to Mr. Wood. The insolvent said it was a bit of waste paper, and having th e name o f Hart and Halif ax on it, he, pro duced it to prevent being sued. He was not aware of his pretensions to an "estate." Mr. COOKE said Mr. Wood had kindly retired from asking a judgment. Mr. Commissioner BOWEN advised the insolvent not to say a word to any other person about his " estate." Mr. Wood had consented to his discharge ; but if he again indulged in the statements he had made, and was brought before the Court, he would find himself in an awkward position. The insolvent was ordered to be discharged On Saturday Thomas Kingston, whose case was be fore the Court a few months ago, and which had been adjourned at the request of the insolvent, who had de clined to swear to the truth of his schedule, came up to be heard on a new one. His debts were about 1,4001., and his assets were very small. He was opposed by Mr. COOKE, on behalf of several creditors, on the ground of gross fraud. Mr. WoonaoFFE supported the insolvent. The case appeared to excite considerable interest amongst various tradesmen who had been victimized by the insolvent, who described himself as a hay-salesman and potato-dealer. He had obtained possession of four houses in Crispin-street, Spitalfields, the property of a gentleman named Gray, under an agreement, which houses he pulled down, sold the materials, and pocketed the money, under which agreement he had agreed to erect other houses in their stead, represent ing that he should come into the possession of 24004 at the death of his brother, which turned out to be all moonshine. Mr. Pritchard, an upholsterer, claimed 421, for fur niture furnished to the insolvent, who occupied pre mises in Panton-square, Haymarket, which were for prompt payment ; but owing to the insolvent informing him that he had met with unforeseen losses, - he con sented to take his bill of exchange at four months, which, when it became due, was dishonoured. Mr. Lawder, a livery-stable-keeper, claimed 52/. 10s. for a horse and phaeton, for which he took a bill of ex change at four months. which had been dishonoured. Mr. Pickford, a builder, claimed 3331. for repairs of houses in Stacey-street, Lincoln's-inn-fields, of which he had only received a few pounds. Other creditors were similarly situated. The hear ing of the case occupied the Court the greater part of two days. Mr. COOKE prayed a judgment of two years. Mr. WOODROFFE replied in mitigation. The COURT, after going through the evidence, said that the insolvent mast re-advertise, and that when his case was ripe for judgment, he would be remanded for a considerable time. The case was then adjourned sine die. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARLBORO UGH- STREET. Mr. Joshua Hands, lessee of the Kensington tolls, summoned Mr. George Cloud, proprietor of a number of omnibuses plying from and to the Bank and Ham mersmith, for having refused to pay the toll of six pence, demanded one Sunday night, in October, for the passage of one of his vehicles. Mr. George Cloud, junior, admitted that the toll had been refused, and he justified the refusal on these grounds :—For the public accommodation on Sunday evenings his father sent from Hammersmith, as far as Piccadilly, a number of extra omnibuses. As soon as the omnibuses had got rid of their passengers, the con ductor was directed to remove t h e p l ates and take the vehicles back home, without carrying or offering to carr y passengers. Now, as th e A c t under which his father had been summoned, expressly stated that public car riages carrying passengers or goods for hire or reward should only be subject to the toll, he contended, as the plates wese removed and the omnibus on its way home empty, that it was no longer a public carriage, and, consequently, was not liable to the toll. Mr. Hands contended, that whether full or empty, an omnibus was invariably liable to the toll, especially if, during any part of the day, it had carried passengers for hire and reward. Mr. DYER asked if one journey was considered to be from Hammersmith to the Bank and back, or whether Hammersmith to the Bank and back again was consi dered two journeys?—Mr. Hands replied two journeys, for which the vehicle each time paid duty. Mr. Cloud, jun., denied this to be so. When the Sunday evening om nibuses were on their return from Piccadilly empty, they were neither liable to duty or toll. The way the duty was ascertained, was leaving a ticket every journey, except on those occasions when it was not intended to carry passengers. Mr. Hands said if Mr. Cloud did not pay duty for all journeys made by his omnibuses, there was something wrong. He was an omnibus proprietor him self, and he knew that the duty under all circumstances was to be paid. The only way to get off from paying it when the vehicle returned empty, was (according to Mr. Hands own words) " by moralising' the Commis sioners." Mr. Cloud, jun., said the question had been tried about a twelve month back at Queen-square, and the decision was in his favour. Mr. Hands said he had tried the same question over and over again, both at Worship -street and Hatton garden, and had invariably gained his point. The last decision in his favour was given by Mr. Bennett. Mr. DYER said it was desirable to have the benefit of unanimity in magisterial decisions. As the case stood at present he was inclined to differ from the view asserted by Mr. Hands to have been taken by his col leagues, and he should like, therefore, to be in posses sion of all the circumstances, and he would take time to consider his decision. The omnibus conductor was called in, and he stated he had received general orders not to take back pas sengers on the return journey on Sunday evenings. The reasons was that the number of passengers seldom paid the expenses of duty and toil. He admitted, however, if a dozen passengers applied at once before he started on his return he would take them. In the course of conversation Mr. Dyer was told that if the toll was paid at Kensington-gate it cleared Ham mersmith-gate, and vice versa. Mr. DYER said he had paid both tolls hundreds of times, and he had invariably been told by the collectors that one gate did not clear the o th er . Th e next t i me he passed that way he should tell the collectors his opi nion of their honesty. The final decision was postponed to next Saturday. ELEVENTH EDITION.

THE BIBLE, and the BIBLE ONLY, FOR EVER. Would i t not be as well, if Protestants, instead of railing, in purest Billingsgate, at their Catholic Brethren in Christ, cour teously as gallantly resolved to secede from them more widely, consistently, and effectively, by remanding to these honest eleves of tradition, their contraband beauties of diction of the Athanasian kind, and meekly, and in the spirit of love, electing to worship with the Apostolic, rather than the Post Apostolic, Church. What though they, good humouredly, relinquished to these avowed eleves of tradition their God Trinity, con tented with " the God of our Lord Jesus Christ !" JOHN THOROGOOD has been confined in the Common Gaol of Chelmsford since the 16th of January last, for not paying a Church. rate of ss. 6d. In consequence of his long confinement, his business has re ceived so much injury, that his friends propose a public sub scription, for the purpose of saving his affairs from utter ruin, and as a testimony to him and to the country that they sympa thize in his sufferings, and honour the principle of religious liberty, which is violated in his person.

(added Mr. Greenwood) a youth who had, like you, been discharged from prison on the day he committed a felony, and it was much more trifling than that with which you are now charged, and the Government, con sidering him irreclaimable, ordered him to be executed, and the sentence was carried out." The Worthy Ma gistrate then asked him if he wished to make any obser vation. He said—" None whatever." He was fully committed for trial. SUNDAY TRADlNG.—Certai❑ persons have for many months past been prosecuting many respectable tobac conists, confectioners, &c., in Islington, for selling on the Sabbath, and have inserted the name of Mr. Tubbs, the beadle of that parish, in the summonses as the in former, against his consent. The worthy Magistrates of this Court have set their faces against these prosecu tions, and invariably endeavoured to detect a loop-hole through which the several defendants could creep out, and evade the penalty they had rendered themselves li able to ; and this has caused the Churchwardens to try to make their Worships do something that will render them liable to a mandamus in the Court of Queen's Bench. About twenty-five summonses have been heard here within the last ten days, but only four convictions have taken place, and the Magistrate s have objected to hand over a moiety of the penalty to the informers. On Saturday Tubbs attended before Mr. GREENWOOD, saying he had to make an application which would be best understood if his Worship would read a letter that he had received. He handed itto Mr. GREENWOOD, who read it as follows : " Vestry-room, St. Mary, Islington. " Sir,—You will please to attend at the Police-office, Hatton-garden, and make a formal demand for a portion of the fines inflicted - upon Marriott, Mitchell, Parting ton, and Pritchard, for Sunday trading. " Your most obedient servant, " WILLIAM BRADGET. " Mr. R. D. Thos. Tubbs." " Churchwarden." After perusing it Mr. GREENWOOD said he was sur. prised at the application, and emphatically remarked, " It is indecent and improper." He continued, that a Magistrate had now the power to award to an informer so much of a penalty as he might think proper, and he liked common informers so well that he would never let them pocket a farthing of the penalties. He did not mean to speak offensively to Mr. Tubbs, who he knew was only acting according to his directions. These also, he would venture to say, were the sentiments of his worthy colleague, Mr. Combe. UNION-HALL. CLANDESTIME REMOVAL OF GOODS ---THE NEW ACT.— William Evans, the owner of a van, was charged with the clandestine removal of goods from a house, to evade the rent. A policeman stated that he saw the defendant's van, loaded with furniture, going along Vincent -street, Cam berwell, at five o'clock that morning ; and that not giving a satisfactory account of the removal, he accord ngly took van, furniture, and all, to the greenyard. A witness stated that the parties who employed the defendant had clandestinely removed from the house where they had been living, to defraud the landlord of the rent. The defendant said that he was employed to remove the goods, and was wholly ignorant that the person who employed him was in arrears of rent. He added, that he hoped he was not to be the sufferer for another man's dishonesty ; and that he was only in the perform ance of his business, that of a carrier of goods, when his horse and vehicle were seized and carried off by the policeman. The MAGISTRATE said that, under the new Act, any rerson who removed furniture, or other household goods, from one dwelling to another, before six o'cloek in the morning, was liable to have the horses and vehicles seized, and taken to the nearest greenyard, even if it was not a clandestine removal. With respect to the removal of goods being done for a clandestine purpose, to avoid paying the rent, then horses, vehicle, and all might be seized at any hour of the day, and the owner of them subjected himself so punishment as an accom plice in the illegal act. As the tenant of the house from which the goods were removed was not in attendance, the defendant's horse and van were ordered to be kept at the greenyard. LORD MAYOR'S DAY. SOMEWHAT MYSTERIOUS.—A man named Smith attended before Mr. Greenwood, under the following circumstances :—On Thursday evening, he said, a box containing most valuable property was removed in his absence from his apartments, and from subsequent in quiries he had satisfied himself that it was in the hands of the police superintendent of the E division, and he wished the Magistrates' interference to cause its resto ration. Mr. GREENWOOD—Does the property belong to you? —Applicant : No ; the owner is the Hon. Mr. Stanley, the Member of Parliament. Mr. GREENwoon—How came it in your bands ? Applicant—Mr. Braden, the solicitor, of Dean -street, Soho, entrusted me with it. He was the professional adviser of Mr. Stanley. Mr. GREENWOOD—If that be so, Mr. Braden is guilty of a gross breach of professional faith. He ought not to have parted with anything entrusted to him,—... Applicant—He expected an execution against his chat tels, and for security he deposited them with me. Inspector Campbell here said he could throw some light on the subject, and explained that on the night named the appli can t' s l an dl a d y b rought the box to the station-house, and stated that she had diatrained for rent on that and other property, and seeing the box had on it" The Hon. 'considered Mr. St an l ey, M . was something wrong, Andsue thought. there it right to give in formation to the P ol :ice. Si nce th en th e S uper i nten d e nt had discovrked that Messrs. Bush and Masters are now the attorneys of Mr. Stanley, and that a transfer of papers, deeds, &c., belonging to the last named gentle man, had lately been made to them by Mr. Braden, and they, as well as well as s M r . St an l ey , were great l y sur prised o n hearing that a chest of deeds had been found in the custody of the applicant, whose extreme anxiety to repossess it had certainly aroused his (Mr. Camp bell's) suspicion that all was not right. Mr. Stanley would be in town in a few days, and the mystery would then, no doubt, be unravelled. Mr. GREENWOOD (to the applicant)—The oroperty is now in good hands, and what more can you desire ? Applicant—To have it in my possession again. Mr. GREENWOOD—Oh no, that must not beY eti admit that it does not belong to you, and the police are therefore to keep it until Mr. Stanley arrives in town. The applicant then left the office muttering. IMPUDENT ROBBERY.—James llolgate, age d 15, was charged with stealing 110 gold rings, besides other articles of jewellery, the property of Mr. R. Pl umpton, of No. 19, Newgate-street, City. Between six and seven o'clock in the evening, the prisoner was met by Policeman Withers, 211 N, who, seeing something rather bulky about hi s poc k ets, searched him, and found the articles name d . Af ter securing him in the station-house, he went in search of the owner, a nd ascertai ne d that it had been stolen from the prosecutors chaise, which was left unpro tected for a few minutes at a tra d esman ' s door in Is lington. The prisoner was liberated from the House of Correction on the very day that he committed the; present robbery. Mr. GREENWOOD told the accused that it was well for him that the Legislature had humanely altered the cri minal law, otherwise he (the prisoner) would most likely have been hanged at the Old Bailey. " I remember THE BANQUET. The Hall was fitted out with great elegance by Mr. Herring, the upholsterer to the Corporation. At the east end, across the large window, was an entablature, with the words " God save the Queen," lighted up with gas in the most splendid manner by Mr. Lowe, who supplied and superintended the gas apparatus with great scientific skill, and whose labours upon the occa sion of the Queen's visit were so highly complimented. Jets of gas-lights, in forms adapted to the Gothic architecture of the hall, blazed all round the structure, and baronial flags and banners, intermingled with shields and helmets, and other warlike insignia, met the eye in all parts of the building. It appeared to us that the cross table at the eastern, or grand end, ought to have been somewhat above the level of the other tables of the hall, as it was rather dif ficult for those at the west end to see the Duke of Cam bridge, her Majesty's Ministers, and the rest of the most distinguished visitors, as to rank and station, who were seated within the platform. The objection struck the Committee, but not in time to enable them to remedy the defect. It was customary to place crimson hangings round the hall, and to fill up the large rude spaces under the window beneath which the Lord Mayor sits with mirrors. The new improvements, exe cuted by Mr. Montague, the Clerk of the Works, how ever, rendered the introduction of these cumbrous orna ments quite unnecessary, and the Gothic appearance of the building was vastly heightened by the chisel and by the three exquisite figures which were discovered amongst the rubbish in the vault. W e were glad to notice that the railing which sepa rates what are still called the hustings' tables, altheugh the hustings were removed upon the motion of Mr. An derton, in the Court of Common Council, some time ago, has been considerably lowered and painted white, so that the eye passes over the large space without meeting any disagreeable impediment. The vocal performers were placed in the orchestra over the entrance door to the hall, and the band of the Ist Life Guards attended in full uniform, and occupied the gallery above the steps leading to the reception-room (the Council Cham ber), where the Lord Mayor and the Lady Mayoress received the guests invted to the banquet. Four trum peters were stationed in different parts of the hall. The Council Chamber was neatly fitted out, but the crimson cloth by which the walls were covered was rather dingy. It would be advantageous, and econo mical too, if th e C orporat i on would dispense with the hangings in this very fine apartment, as they have dis pensed with those in the Hall. We believe that next year will make a change in this respect. The lobby between the steps of the hall ard the en trance to the reception-room was very properly and elegantly hung with crimson cloth, and that portion of it ‘ immediately before the doors of the latter was most tastefully ornamented with exotics. The Committee, of which Deputy Pewtress was the Chairman, superin tended the whole of the preparations with great care and skill, and, extensive as they were, not the slightest confusion was observed to take place. The Lord Mayor and Sheriffs Evans and Wheelton, the joint -masters of the feast, had, together with the late Lord Mayor and several of the Aldermen and the principal members of the Companies to which the Chief Magistrate and the Sheriffs belong, assembled in the Guildhall at eleven o'clock, where a splendid breakfast was prepared for them, preparatory to their visit to the Courts at Westminster, where his Lordship was to be sworn in. Amongst the guests of the Lord Mayor and Sheriffs at the banquet, we observed his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, tho Lord Chancellor, Lord Mel bourne, Lord Normanby, Lord Palmerston, the Chan cellor of the Exchequer, the Right Hon.

The Lady Mayoress. The Attorney and the Solicitor-Generals and the Bar. The Representatives of the City of London in Parlia ment. The Aldermen who have passed the Chair. The Aldermen below the Chair. The LORD MAYOR very soon began to propose the toasts, on account of the determination to have the hall closed at twelve o'clock. The health o f the ~ Queen was drunk amidst loud cheering, but that of the Queen Dowager was received with a great deal more enthusiasm by the Tories present. The LORD MA roa proposed the health of his Royal Highness the Dulat of Cambridge and the rest of the Royal Family.—(Great cheering.) The Duke of CAMBRIDGE assured the Lord Mayor and Sheriffs Evans and Wheelton that he rose with the highest gratification to express his sense of the very great kindness done hiin and the rest of the Royal Fa mily, for whom he would answer, that they were deeply sensible of the compliment paid to them by the autho rities and the inhabitants of the great City of London. —(Cheers.) He h o p e d h e s h ou ld f requently enjoy the happin ess in which he participated at that moment, with so nutherous and honourable a company.—(Great cheering.) The LORD MAYOR next proposed " The Navy and Army," the members of which services would, if occa sion required their energies, act with as great power and effect as ever.—(Cheers.) Lord BLOOMFIELD returned thanks for the Army, and declared that he could answer for that service, that nothing gave them more pride than to participate in the splendid scene of civic hospitality with so respectable a company.—(Cheers.) Captain DENMAN returned thanks for the Navy. The LORD MAYOR then proposed the health of the late Lord Mayor. It gave him much pleasure to drink the health of a brother Magistrate, who had filled the office to wb;.ch he (the Lord Mayor) was just elevated, with great honour to himself, and satisfaction to his fello w - eitizens.—(Cheers.) The toast was drunk with enthusiasm. The late Lord MaYou. said that rising as he did at. that moment with feelings of satisfaction and gratitude for the very kind and approving manner in which the company had been pleased to drink the toast so flatter ingly proposed to their notice, he could not but say that he felt sentiments of regret, mingled with those of pleasure. It was not possible for a public man to look back upon the period, of a year, in which he bad ex perienced the kindest attentions from his fellow-citizens, and the strongeFA support from his brother Magistrates under heavy and responsible duties, without being sen sible of a mr,mentary feeling of sorrow that it was past; bu any senti-ment of regret was outweighed by amore cheering retrospect, for while he acknowledged that the kindness and support he had received had been far greater than he bad deserved, yet he was willing to believe that it en sured to him their judgment that he bad in some degree discharged his duty.—(Applause.) It had been his de sire to surrender to his fellow-citizens the trust of their rights and privileges unbroken and untarnished, as he had received them. His best abilities and his most ac tive exertions bad been used to that end ; and in re tiring into more private life, he begged to assure those around him that his interest and anxiety for the welfare of his fellow-citizens would be in no degree abated, and that, as one of the Magistracy of the City of London, he should continue to use his best endeavours for the public weal. He most cordially returned thanks for all kindnesses and attentions during a very pleasant year of office, and he could not form a better wish for his ex cellent friend, the present Chief Magistrate, than that he might receive the like kindness and support, and that his services might better deserve them. The LORD MAYOR then proposed " Prosperity to the City of London and Trade." The Duke of CAMBRIDGE proposed " The health of the Lord Mayor," for whom he entertained a high re spect, and who, he was convinced, would fully justify the high expectations entertained of him by his fellow citizens.—(Loud cheers.) The LORD MAYOR, in returning thanks, said that he was determined to uphold the privileg es of his fellosl- citizens, and th a t h e h ope d, w i t h the kind and liberal assistance of his brother Magistrates, to merit the high terms in which his Royal Highness had done him the honour to speak of him.—(Cheers.) His Lordship then proposed " The Lord High Chancellor of Eng land," who had honoured him and the Sheriffs with his company to dinner.—(Applause and some hisses.) The LORD CHANCELLOR said that he had had the benefit for many years of witnessing the great anniver sary of civic hospitality. He rejoiced to witness it, for it bore manifeotation of great commercial prosperity, which had in its train advantages which tended to im prove the great national institutions which elevated the City of London to so high a rank. Those who might have entertained a doubt upon the subject had only to look around and be convinced. The LORD MAYOR rose to propose the health of her Majesty's Ministers—Lord Melbourne, Lord Pal merston, Lord Normanby, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer. They had done him and the Sheriff's the high honour of accopting their invitation to dine at the Guildhall.—(Great confusion, composed of applause, waving . of bandkerchiefs, and partial dissent.) Her Ma jesty had been pleased to raise them to the high situa tions in which they were placed, and he trusted that all their measures would be found to promote the best in terests of the City of" London and the empire. —(Ap plause and hisses.) As soon as the distinguished persons whose healths were proposed rose to acknowledge the obligation, there was a tumult in the hall. Lord MELBOURNE said that if the gentlemen would be only silent for one moment, he would perform the duty which he had to execute for himself and his col leagues by thanking, in a few words, the Lord Mayor and the Sheriffs, for the honour they had done them in drinking their healths.--(lmmense conflict be tween the applauders and the groaners.) The Hall in which they were assembled was very badly adapted to political discussion, for, when the necessary silence ex isted, a voice could not pass to any distance in it. The occasion was also badly adapted for political discussion, for it was intended for matters of a very different cha racter--hospitality and the free and liberal interchange of sentiments.—(Great uproar, waving of handkerchiefs, applause, and some paltry groans.) The LORD AlAwa rose to request that the discon tented would allow the Noble Lord to proceed. He little thought that it would be necessary for him to rise and declare that the Chief Magistrate and the Sheriffs were not treated as they expected.—(Cheers.) Lord MELBOURNE again addressed the company amidst Tory hisses. The Lord Mayor had, he said, alluded to the energies which were in the Navy and Army ready to be called into play should any di ffi culties occur. He f e lt th a t th e p res ent Adm inistra tion had similar energ i es at comman d, an d would exercise them should an y emergenc y ar ise. Peace had its dange rs and theifoccur, ut. most reliance on the spirit and steadiness, and good feel ing of the citizens of London..—(Cheers.) Several other toasts were given, but without e xc iti ng any f e ee twe ling lve o'c of a w oc arm kind. Th e C ompany broke up forlk.
