In the Times of Saturday appears a well-written " Letter to Sir ROBERT PrEL," which will be found in another column of The Sun. Mixed up with much of caustic bitterness there is much of truth in this letter, though it is truth of a sort that will be any thing but palatable to the Right Hon. Baronet. The writer commences by reminding the Premier of the circumstances under which be took office—how he had with him the Church, the aristocracy, the bar, the great majority of manufacturing and commercial men, the middle classes, and no small porti3n of the Liberal party in Parliament. All things, he says, conspired to favour the fortunate Government ; but now, much of these encouraging influences has disappeared, and during the last session the Ministry at times scarcely commanded a bare majority by the aid of its enemies, and was more than once defeated by the strenuous exertions of its friends. And what is the cause of this gradual decline in the strength and popularity of a Government, but four Short years since so. powerful ? We give the answer to this question in the words of the writer, as addressed to Sir ROBERT PEEL :-" Your warmest admirers, Sir, are at a loss if asked to explain upon what your Home .Ulininistration is founded. It identifies itself with no great principles; it enlists in its favour no general or generous sympathies. It has erected no standard, however humble, round which your followers may rally. Calling itself eminently Con servative, it does not distinctly • declare what are its objects of conservation. Affecting to resist Reform, it has sanctioned measures of violent change. Professing to maintain our existing insti tutions, it has shifted its ground more than once, and has conducted its defence upon no broad or intelli gible principle." Severe as they are, who can hesitate to assent to the truth of these observations, which in our opinion, sufficiently explain the cause of the Premier's declining influence ? He has taken his stand on the shifting quick-sand of Expediency, in stead of on the broad, solid rock of principle. With sagacity enough to see the right path to pursue, he has frequently chosen the wrong one, and may say with the Latin poet of old, Video meliora, proboque, Deteriora aequor. Hence he has engendered a feeling of distrust and apprehension in the breasts of his friends, while he has failed to conciliate his enemies. If he still com mand a majority in the House of CominOns, it not a majority accruing from the goodwill, respect, and confidence entertained towards him, but one caused by the apparent necessity of the case. We grant that he has many difficulties to contend against. but it is tke part of a true statesman b.ldly to grapple with difficulties, with the firm determination to over come them, rather than weakly to submit to their pressure. We wish that Sir ROBERT PEEL, had more of the oak and less of the willo v in his nature, braving the storm, instead of pliantly ho' ing till it has passed over him. That he means well we firmly believe, but . of what avail are good intentions , when unsupported by courage, energy, and firmness? Of whit avail is it that he propounds the doctrine of " buying in the cheapest and selling in the dearest market," if he fails to follow it up in practice ? Of what avail is it that to-day he delights a COBDEN by hiS profv;sions of liberality, if to-morrow he brings sunshine to the heart of a BANKER by his declarations in favou r of the Protective system ? If he wishes to retain his post, and regain the popularity he has lost, he must bestir himself, and that quickly. The season of forbearance is passed, and both parties—Whigs as well as Con serVatives—will expect that Sir ROBERT PEEL early in the ensuing session will lay down, and make his stand upon, some broad, distinct principle of policy which may at once put an end fo the vacillation, confusion, and perplexity, which has so long characterised the discussions in the House of Commons ; With the Tories notoriously weakened as they are by discords and jealousies— with the Whigs well disposed to support. any enlarged liberal measure that he may bring forward, what is to prevent Sir ROBERT PEEL from 'enunciating and acting upon some bold, comprehensive, energetic prin ciple that may ensure, at no very distant period the full and perfect triumph of the free-trade system? At present Men are almost wholly in the dark as respects the Pre mier. They know not what , to make of him—how far to support, how far to oppose him. As he values his own reputation, let him lay aside this studied air of reserve and mystery, which paralyses his friends while it fails to throw his enemies off their guard. He has the means at his command of conferring in estimable benefits on his country ; the stream of pub lic opinion still runs—though not strongly, as it did four years ago—in his favour; and we do hope and trust that when the proper season arrives, he will be found playing the part of a bold, enlightened, patriotic British Minister. The death of a very staunch Reformer, Sir J. it SEALE, Bart., has rendered vacant the representation in Parliament of the little borough of Dartmouth. Dartmouth has but a small constituency, but its Par liamentary franchise dates back from a most respect able antiquity—the 26th of EDWARD 1.. It assumes, however, a character of much higher interest with the public than any derived from in* re prescription of this sort, by reason of its having been the scene of various spirited attempts on the part of the SEALE family to break up the nomination and rotten -borough machinery by which the Government of the day, or the Tory family of the lIOLDSWORTHS, have, at silecessive election*, returned their pocket. man. After narrowly escaping the doom (e'di , franchiseinelit under the ilkualif‘ing retreat of Sched u l e A, it too k ree k under the Relent Bill, as a Parliamentary llorough returning one Member. Sir J. 11. SEALE reaped the fruit of his bold, and—till then—unsuccessful at- Tempts to disenthral its electoral franchise, by being, in 1832, returned by the electors without opposition, to a Reformed House of Cemmona. The gallant Baronet has continued to sit for it through four suc cessive Parliaments, until his decease, which took place a few days ago. Before his mortal remains could be committed to the tomb (his interment having taken place only this day), the Tory . interest at Dartmouth were busily engaged in looking out and bringing forward a successor, in the person of Mr. Joseen Seames, the eminent shipoWrier. This gentleman, we perceive, comes out on the " Con servative interest," a location somewhat odd for the Governor of the New Zealand Company, to whose delinquencies one of our morning Contem poraries so greatly errs, in imputing to us (in terms, indeed, sufficiently courteous), not merely indif ference, but a sort of apologetic tolerance. If, however, as we before remarked, the public at large were indignant at the enormous favouritism, or heed lessness, of Government, in the privileges extended to that Company ; and if the colonists have had as much reason to deplore the fatal massacre of IVairau, and the imbecility and disorganisation of their local authorities, as our Contemporary has shown, that the Company's shareholders, contracting emigrants, and others have had to denounce the bad faith and hollow promises of the Directors, what shall we say to the Governor of this Company proposing himself to the freemen of Dartmouth fur their representative in the House of Commons, on " Conservative" principles? Come, come, Mr. SOAMES, transfer your " Conserva tive" solicitude—if you have any real feeling of the kind—to the Company's house in Broad-street, for the benefit of those whose cry is for restitution ; or to the lands at Nelson and elsewhere, where emigrants complain that they have indeed been settled, but not located ; or located but not protected. Leave to Dart mouth the Conservative care ofmaintaining its own elec toral freedom ; and to Mr. MorrArr, the Liberal and worthy candidate who steps forward to oppose you, the honour of vindicating it. The choice of the freemen could not be more wisely, advantageously, or even equitably bestowed than on such a man as Mr. MorrATT, or on account of more substantial public services than those he has already rendered, in his capacity of an eminent London merchant, by his zealous support to the system of reduced rates of postage; his consistent advocacy of the principles of I free trade; and by the bold and liberal character of his political opinions. We heartily commend him to the support of the Dartmouth electors. ~"„ • ).

The commotions caused by Puseyism are happily not confined now to the cloisters of Oxford. They have become acne: al throughout the country, and the .jesuitical, deceLful, and anti-Protestant intrigues of certain clergymen and Fellows of Colleg-s, toeether with the connivance of the Bishops and the almo,t total silence of the two Archbishops, have excited a feeling of alarm fir the safety of the reformed reli gion %vhich does honour to Englishmen. The danger is unknown, and is therefore probably magnified; but the symptoms. nevertheless, are such as to warrant the most energetic metteire , on the pirt of the laity in opposing the tide of 1 3 0:isti 'nnevations, which are so visihie in the Clureh. A rep7:rt prevails that the Bishops have become alarmed' at the tnatii festitiens of public op:oion, that frequent. communicatiens are carried on between them and the Primates, and that ;he Episcopal Bench are determined to put down forthwith Pusgr, and NEWMAN, and Waal), and all the young fry of Popish imitators. Not the slightest credit can be given to such. a report, vet parties,. from a strange hallucination who have hitherto honestly Opposed the Trwearians, net only place implicit confidence in it, but recommend that the redress of this unprincipled outrage on Protestantism should be left entirely in 66 . hands of the Bishops. Who ever heard of defeated rebels being allowed to make terms with the Execu tive ? What rational man would recommend that a nest of thieves, caught in ilvrante.delicto, should be e l!ewed to, retire to their buats of infamy, and pro pose terms of settlement to those they had robbed ? Why the Church, and the very nursery of our Bishops and Clergy, Protestant Oxford, have been the cause of all the mischief. The tracts issued from that venerable establishment, for a time, not a whisper against them was heard from the Epis copal Bench; 89 appeared, all directed, openly or covertly, against the Protestant religion, and it was only when thy, 90th, so outrageous in its character, e, Tel ,o directly opposed to tenets revered by English mtn, made a noise in the world that the Bishop of the iocese. or the Archbishop of CANTERBURY—We orget which - -intimated to Messrs. nisei. and NEW MAN that it would be prudent to stop the publication. The hint was taken, and this shows what the fathers of the Church could do if they were serious in the matter. But they are not serious. With one or two honourable exeeptions, their late addresses to the clergy at visitations have been ofsuch a vacill:qing character, so vague, and yet so forgiving to the offenders, that all reasonable men said, if they looked to the Bishops for support, they would trust to a broken reed. Their replies to remonstrances from the laity have been equally unsatisfactory. These Fathers, in place of treating the people under their charge as re formed Chri ,tians who have a dread of change, re buke them for meddling with the ceremonies of the Church, and seem to rejoice when, in the abundance of their rubrical knowledge, they can prove that churchwardens and vestries know nothing about the importance of the surplice, the beauties of the offertory, and the blessings which will be conferred on the Church by burning tapers, genuflexions, and frankincense. Admitting, therefore, that a conclave is to be held on this important schism, what beneficial result can be expected? The two Archbishops are old ranee‘,,r n.,on! approaching f ourscore years an d ten, t h e ot h er displayed great activity, and, if report speaksthe truth, is m one of ore g uid e d by than his own judgment!

The Moniteur publishes a royal ordonnance, dated Dec. 4. which orders material changes in the import duties on the productions of various countries, more especially India, brought to France in French ships, and also in the premiums on home-made machinery used in international navigation. We- have given the principal clauses of the decree in another part of the paper, showing the nature and amount of the new duties. The alterations with regard to machinery are thus stated :—" The premium granted by the law of the '6th of May, 1841, to steam-engines, of French manufacture, employed on board French vessels engaged in maritime international navigation, is to be paid according to the basis and quota of the import duties applicable to steam-engines of foreign manu facture imported in French vessels." The ordon nance is accompanied by a report from the Minister - of Commerce, from which the following is an extract :—“_Our commerce and industry re quired some new modifications of the tariff of im port duties. The object of the greater part of these reductions, is, by means of a reduction of duties, to. encourage French ships to import direct into France from India and other countries beyond Europe, cer tain heavy articles intended to be manufactured in this country, such as panes, bamboos, mo-her-of-pearl; tin ore, imported from Hindustan and the Sunda Islands, nitrate of soda coming from South America, and especially from Chili ; camphor, medicinal fruit's, carthamum, balsam of copaiha, and several other prd ductions.of the island . and continent of America, and brass, which generally comes to us from the north of Europe, but which a better-arranged tax would allow us to comprise among our exchanges with more dis tant countries. A diminution of the duty On bailiana, Barbary wood, colours, stones, and chalk, and iron ore imported into Corsica, will have the effect of proportioning more justly the duty to the ectual value of the production, in order to permit the employ meld of them in our manufactures." From all accounts it was full time to make the change, fOe it all the principal ports of France there has been a decay of shipping and little demand for freighti. The National states, that at Bordeaux, Nantes, Havre; and even Marseilles, so much benefited by • the trade with Algiers, there has been a • con siderable diminution of entries, and the Mar seilles Chamber of Commerce, adverts to the fact in these desponding terms :—" Maritime speculations produce unprofitable returns. The un= favourable positiOn of the shipowners reacts ,on the number of seamen, and the inferior classes withdraw from a profession which produces no advantage." These papers contain no additional intelligence fr o m Spain, hut the National gives a frightful picture of the state of the . Country. " There are no bounds," it Says, " to the - violence of the reaction; no more laws, no guarantees, no. personal security. The humblest citizen, .who 'may have given umbrage, is at (nide struck either 'in his person or his property.• • Pro scription,, whitth••had been applied to generals . and other officers of rank only, is now extended to men of the most inferior .consideration. Writers canndt escape this furor.; the:r independence is shaken by this band of malefactors, with whom power is no thing. more than an instrument of vengeance and destruction.. A universal terror reigns over the Pe ninsula." A file of -the newspaper established at .04- heite by the Governor, Captain BI WA; extending from the -sth of May to the 6th of June, had been re ceived at Paris, and extracts from it were published, in several .of the Opposition journals. The number of the lath of May gives a long account of the proceedings of Captain RUNT, of, the Basilisk, during the inter views between the Chiefs and Queen POMARR, in the presence of M. MALMANCHE, the agent of Captain BRUAT, and all the details are said to be authentic. . Of this we have every doubt. The English mis: sionaries are blamed for giving exaggerated state rnents, but they fall far shortofM.,MaLasaNcu4.. The first part of the description and the conclusion will afford satisfactory proofs. He must indeed be A rough sailor this Mr. Holur,,the commander of the BaSilisk, to treat a King and Queen with such rudenesS. M. MALMANCHE thus describes the scene, and Captain HUNT'S.manner "His first act was to impose silence, in an angry tout, upon the Chief, who had begun to converse with the' Queen. Do nut talk,' said h., 'write, write ;' and , aid lancing towards the ex-Queen, in a disrespectful manner, he added, not that the case, Pomare ? ' Pomare , ontinued to hold down her head. Without doubt she did not comprehend what Mr. Hunt said, for he spoke in English, .and she only knows her native language. , As he was in want of an interpreter, Mr. Hunt looked about; and perceiving the husband of the Queen, who was stand-, inz aside, he took him by the collar, and said to him, angrily, you understand English enough to tell these chiefs that I will nut allow them to speak to the Queen ; they must write.' The Queen's husband executed this order with a bail grace, and immediately afterwards re sumed his place." The scene thus closes : " ThPreupon Vii. Malmanche quitted tho taking with him the pretended letter of l'omare, and d..:dro.s.in the following words to Captain Hunt : Since l'omare is a poor woman who is obliged to take counsel from you, all the calamities which have hap pened, and all the blood that has been shed at Otaheite, cannot be attributed to her, but only to Mr. Hunt, cap tain of the Basilisk.'

We have news from New York by the Montezuma, Captain Fowler, one day later than by the last arrival. The elections were still going on in favour of Mr. Polk, and left no doubt that Mr. Clay was utterly defeated. The Whigs, however, do not despair. They trust to the Senate, to the real friends of libertY, and to the spirit of independence which originally formed the Constitution. A Whig journal, the New York Morning Express, after admitting that its party is beaten, thus takes consolation Public attention will next be turned to Washington, where Congress 'will assemble in two weeks from next Monday. We regard this= session, in consequence of the 'result of the recent election, and the important questions growing out of the contest, as more impor tant than any we have had, since the embargo and the war. The majority in the House of Representatives is much larger with our opponents than it will be in the next Congress. Their strength is sufficient there for any purpose Which they may unite to accomplish, and the discussions,. whether they end in the success or defeat of measures, in all probability will be of an intensely interesting character. We anticipate, in deed, a more exciting session than we have had for years,—a struggle for the annexation of Texas,—a combination for the overthrow of the Tariff,—an effort to establish the Sub-Treasury. These are the principles to be battled for, and, if possible, to be bat tled dOwn. A party, too, is to be made—a Cabinet to be formed, arid' our whole body of Diplumatiats changed. The faint—so faint, indeed, that we can hardly discern the faintest shadow left—remnants of the Harrison victory are to :be. obliterated, and in all probability the Tyler faCtiOn will be cast off with more contempt than ceremony. Men will change; and there is, we fear, a radical system of pr oscr ipti on in waiting for the most meritorious officers of the General Government. " Our eyes are turned upon the Senate with in tense interest. If there is trne courage and true pa triotism with the majority there, as we believe there is, all 'will be well. The destroyer can be driven hack, and he Must be. Nanly courage, prompt de fenee, a heart alive to the impulses of pure patriotism, a head to comprehend the interesting crisis at hand, will - carry every Whig senator seasonably to Wash. ington. He will stand as firmly at his post as the pillars of the capitol where he sits, unmoved by threats,. unseduced by bribes, and not terrified by circumstances.. The oath is upon him to support the :Constitution. The eyes of the people are upon him, and he will have to render such an account of his 'stewardship as hereafter will make him a blessing or a curse to all mankind. We look to our senators as our safest,, truest, ablest ;sentinels. We have confi dence .in , their integrity and intelligence, and while they rule we do not despair of the Republic." - The same journal gives sad accounts of the frauds practised at the elections. Among yhers the fol lowing " The New- Orleans Tropic charges that some hundreds- of-the votes given in Plaquemines, were by residents of New Orleans; who had previously voted in that city. That parish, is ,Capable of polling per haps 500 votes, at the -utmost, and had, when the census of 1840 was taken, a white population of thirteen hundred-and fifty-one souls! including men, women and children. Yet can it be believed, that up to one o'clock, on the 7th instant, twelve hundred and eighty-three votes were polled ? At one o clock, the vote stood— - For Polk For Clay . Majority for Polk The following are extracts from the.papers : COMMERCIAL.—Stocks continue in a very excited state, and little' disposition shown to operate. A few fancies close a shade better, but not enough to give a brighter appearance to the market. Some disposi tion is 'shown to make contract to deliver on long time, but a proposal to deposit ten per' cent, at once ends the proposal. State stocks are a shade lower in some cases and a. general feeling of caution is seen among all operatives." TiNiEssE E.—The Nashville Banner prepares us for the lOss of,the eleetoral vote of Tennessee, by the fol- Jowing paragraph.:—" Our friends in other sections of the Union will• be able to appreciated the increased difficulties of the canvass this year, when we inform them that it is probable there are a thousand, nay w•e would not be far wrong in saying there are two thou sand Whig families in this - State, of more or less in fluence, who have some 'one:or more of their mem bers citizens of Texas." - The New Orleans Tropic, heretofore a Whig paper, has :raised the American Republican flag. In its leader of the 6th instant, it remarks From this'clay we shall wage war upon the pre sent naturalisation laws, and urge, with what power we may possess, such a modification as will compel every foreigner who lands-upon our shores to remain twenty-one- years: and _then_ receive his evidence of citizenship from the United States Court only." Extract of a letter frinn a prominent Whig at .RichMond, Va, to his correspondent in this city : " Your letter of the Bth instant, giving the result of the election in your State, is received. The triumph of Mi. Calhoun is complete: You express the opinion that there will be no important change in the present •tariff. I think you reckon without your host. My own opinion is, that the whole system, as regard.; protection, go.by the board.

On the ponds in St. James's Park and the Regent's Park the skaters were countless, and the ice was in the finest condition. On no occasion have' we seen such beautiful sheets of ice for skating. There has been no 5m w. and no thaw to destroy the surface. Several reckless persons ventured on dangerous ice and fe•1l through, but, owing to the prompt and efficient activity of the." humanity men," we believe no lives were lost. The thermometer, iu the course of Saturday night, fell to 24. LIERIG.—One of -his greatest merits is one com mon to all high scienti6c men—the impulse he has given to research. Until his time, and that o f Dumas, che mistry, e rnistry, with few exceptions, had never been applied to the explanation of the processes of life ; for physiolo gists confined themselves either to the anatomical exa mination of man and animals—vague theories of their functions—or learned theoretical disquisitions on the rature and cause of life. Nevertheless, it must be ad mitted, that an immense mass of facts were accutnulatcd, though nearly valueless, from want of connexion. It is the credit of Liehig, that, departing with equal ingenuity and originality from the old scholastic ideas which ruled the science, he, though almost ignorant of anatomy, it least of its details, has done something to classify and reduce the hitherto shapeless mass. the chaotic jumble, to a beautiful and connected whole ; and, though some times forgetting the true inductive method of reasoning, find jumping at conclusions, unsupported by facts, no one can deny that many of his theories are characterised by extreme beauty 'and simplicity, and that his works abound in clever and valuable suggestions, which wi!l 'one day become the fruitful germs of new and important diseoTeries.—Medical Times, ' v '• • FLANDERS AND HAMBURGH MAILS. BRUSSELS, D E c. 4.—The Chamber continued to-day the debate on the budget of the finance department. The several chapters of the budget were succvsirely agreed to, and the whole law passed unanimously by the sixty Members present. To-morrow the budget of the depart ment of foreign affairs will-be taken into consideration. Sir Hamilton Seymour, her Britannic Majesty's Am bassador, has returned, after having been fur some months absent'on leave. On Mohday, the 16th, his Majesty will have com pleted his fifty-fourth ,year. Te DMA will be performed, as usual, in the Church of St. Gudule. PETERSISURGH, Nov. 23.—The Emperor has been pleased to confer the Order of St. Waldimir of the first class, on Dr. Clot Bey, in the service of the Patch* of Egypt, on account of the assistance given by him to the Russian Commissioners, who were sent to Egypt to make experiment* on the purification of infected articles, by the application of a high degree of heat. latiovirn, Nov. 30. The report published in some journals, that his Majesty the King in tended to confer on the Prince of Sohns a new here ditary office, that of hereditary Master of the Horse, which was to be created for him, is not only doubted but declared to be unfounded by persons who from their situation must be well informed. In fact, the creation of a new hereditary office seems to be highly improbable in the present state of things. We learn that the last diffi culties which have delayed the final conclusion of the con►ention respecting the iron railway are now removed, and that the definitive conclusion will probably soon take 'place. - TURKISH Faowrrstt, Nov. 15.—The Jews of Jeru salem have examined Dr. Philippson, Rabbi, at Magde burg, , and Dr. J. A. Jost in Berlin, because the collections made in Europe for the Jews in Jerusalem, which - are said to amount to million and a half dollars annually, may be partly employed by those honourable men in the proposed establishment of a hospital and a school for the Jews at Jerusalem. The Jews of Jeru salem will not learn anything ; they have printed a pro clamation in which they say " We, the seed of Israel, the holy ,People, have no share in foreign studies; arts, sciences, medicine and the like.

" Who-rities may read.;' 1 ,1 493tZt10,K. The Moniteur Algsfrein, of the 25th ult., announces that the execution of the treaty of commerce between France. and _Stirdini:i, which was cone used in 'August, 1843, is, by order of the Minister of War, Suspended in Algeria until further orders. The tariff, which had been modified by this treaty, is to be again enforced in its original state. The motive for this measure is not Stated. The Moniteur Parisies' mentions a report that a com pany, composed of the first bankers of Paris, has been formed lit the execution of a railroad from Calais to Marseilles, with a capital of 400 millions of francs. , The Courrier Francais states that it is M. Villemain who is appointed to compose the King's speech at the opening of the'session, and is at present engaged on it. A hawker of irreligious and immoral books, named Bon, has just been condemned by the Court of Assizes of the Seine-Inftieure to five years' imprisonment :s and 6,000 f. fine. The Prefect of the Seine has just transmitted to the Minister of the Interior plans for the opening of new and wide streets in several quarters of Paris. The refugees from Arregon, to whom the Prefect of the Basses Pyrenees gave permission to remain in the town, have nut yet, 5195 the Atomoriat of Pau, been re moved into the interior. One of them, M. Fernando Madoz, is the former political chief of Pampeluna, and the ex-fiscal of the Cour Royale of Madrid. A letter from Madrid gives a flaming account of the grand banquet at the Queen's Palace. It is stated that all the foreign Ambassadors were present, but that the French Ambassador almost monopolised the attention of the two Queens. It would almost appear that Count Bresson was anxious to . show that the articles against the Spanish Ministry, .in, • the Debuts, were contrary to the feelings of his Court. It is said that the , Emperor of Morocco refuses to ratify the treaty with Spain, relative to the territorial limits of Ceuta, and that the Spanish Consul was about -to protest, and to demand the intervention of the British Consul. Madrid, on the 29th, was perfectly tranquil, and from the official bulletins published- by the Government, it would appear that the insurrection in Navarre and Ar ragon had been completely suppressed. A letter from Brunswick, Nov. 29, says Our reigning Duke, who . has more than once declared in favour of the emancipation, of the Jews, and has shown them so many marks of favour, has just presented to the States a Bill, having for object-1. To abolish the pre sent law, ordering all Jews to take the oaths in Courts of justice more judaicci only ; and 2. To permit them to swear in the same way as Christians, by raising the right hand, and invoking Ahnighty God." LAW AND ROLICa. The case of Faulkner v. Litchfield and Hearn came on for argument in Arches' Court. A faculty was in this case granted, with the consent of the churchwardens and the vicar, to repair the-church of the Holy Sepulchre of Cambridge. The minister, the Rev. Mr. Faulkner, dis approved of the erection of a stone altar and a cre dence table in the church. The Consistorial Court at Ely confirmed the faculty, and from that decision an ap peal was promoted to this Court. Drs. Bayford and fwiss were heard for the Rev: Mr. Faulkner, and Dr. R. Phillimore for Messrs Litchfield and Hearn, the church wardens. Sir H. J. Fust re'erved his judgment. At the Chelmsford Assizes William Hurrell and W. Taylor, agricultural labourers, were convicted of sending a letter to James Miles, threatening to destroy his pro • perty. Sentence was not passed on them. William Reed, 19, and Thomas Firch, 20, were in dicted, at Worcester. for violently assaulting Maria Reed, at Dudley, on the 15thsof August, and stealing from her a pocket and other articles. They were found guilty, and sentenced to be transported for fifteen years. • Mr. Justice Pattestea sentenced Themes Newman, who was convicted at Leicester, of bigamy, to six months' imprisonment, with hard labour. John Kenyon Winterbottom, the Stockport attorney. was tried before Mr. Baron Gurney, at Chester. for for gery,:and found guilty. There was a point of law re served for future argument, and judgment was, conse• qUently respited. At York William Potter, convicted of arson, was placed at - the bar, and received st ntence of death. Two persons, who gave their names Kantrowitz, who said they - Were Poles, were charged on MOnday, at Clerkenwell, with stealing a clothes-horse from their lodgings, at Mrs. Woolford's, Old North-street, Red Lion square.
