pretended Minister, equally forced upon her Majesty, being deputed :snd backed by a licentious rabble of armed men, without the shadow of approbation or concurrence from the two Chambers, or from any other est abli s h e d, though inferior, authorities of th e o ' nki a lom,? On the part of Lurniares, Sade Ban deira, tc., it is plainly high treason—on the part of the Queen, her signature to the overthrow of the Coll , StltUtiOn by virtue of which she reigned, was a nullity (even had it. otherwise been valid), as being executed j l ifestly under severe duress. A s f or the popular r c blacter assumed for this transaction by its partisans, it is a downright fraud. The people of Portugal h ave nothing to do with it or them. The, people were not consulted any more tha n the Fortes, w h o , lik e the inagistracy and the nobility vs,ithin reach, were not consulted. The Queen, as Ire have already said, was not consulted, but forced. Then what attribute or feature of a lawful act, demanding obedience from thP.. native Portuguese, recognition from foreign Powers, belongs to this criminal convulsion ? So with regard to Spain. We cannot yet find that the slightest colour of legitimacy or authority has spread itself over - the dethronement of Isabella from the Royal station assigned to her by t h e E statuto Real. The signature of the Queen-Regent, fixed to that proceeding, was confessed to be comPulaory, and is, th ere f ore , f rom t h e first, invalid. N an ; of the constituted authorities of the realm suPpeirted it —none shared it. The agents were, as at LiTsbon, a bayonet-wielding and threatening mob. The instigators have not avowed themselves, except in, so far as the new Ministers, acting in the name of the Queen, may be considered to have taken upon themselves the responsibility of all the violence offered to their repugnant mistress. But what has been the conduct of those Spaniards whose names and Itistory carry with them the respectful suffrages of the body of mankind, as being the true representatives of Spanish honour, integrity, and legitimacy, to all great public purposes ? The wisest, most re putable, and most unblemished subjects of the Spa nish Crown have refused to sanction this mock " Reform" of their Government. Many noble and distinguished men from Bayonne to Paris have shrunk from the mockery of swearing to a Constitution brought about by depraved and treasonable violence. Alava, a true Castilian of the highest water, has thrown up his mission as Ambassador, and withdrawn into private life. The Ministers of the Queen, or Tether of the mutineers of the Granja, are, with one exception, men whom none but advocates of the wildest and most extreme democracy can rely upon. M. Men dizabal has accepted office. He did so before under the Estatuto Real. If he does so now, we must, for the sake of our former sood opinion of him, trust that he does so for the sake of the public service. But the present circumstances of Spain are far different from, and more discouraging than, those in which she stood when M. Mendizabal formerly administered the Finan cial Department. The kingdom is torn to pieces by adverse passions, and by a military conflict, which from Navarre and Biscay has overspread the plains of Va lencia and the two Castiles, carrying defeat and terror to -the gates of Madrid. The credit of the ciovernment holding possession of the capital seems to be irretrievably gone. The forces of the Pretender are •multiplying where, and h ave l atterly been almost every where eve vic ry torious. The party domineerin g in the Queen's name have made the mere act of seeking safety by flight from that den of ruffianism in which the brave Que sada was wantonly and barbarously butchered—they have made it, we say, a crime against their state, and have punished the villainous individuals thus guilty of the offence of saving their own lives from massacre, by a sweeping confiscation of their property, personal and real ! If from the complex miseries surrounding a (so called) Government like that of Queen Christina's ty rants, M. Mendizabal succeeds in fairly extricating himself and them, we are bound to say that a large proportion of the miracles ascribed to Popish saints will appear to us less incredible than we have hitherto regarded them. Th ere are, in fact, among those who arrogate to themselves the laudatory appellation of Spa nish Radicals, few, if any (we fear not any), men of the least pretencrs to ability, whom an active or clever Minister could, call upon to assist him in his labours. It would see m quite fabulous to posterity, that a nation of 12,000,000 o f sou l s s h ould have been engaged for nearly '.30 years in a series of political arid military strusgies, without developing in any of her sons one spark of intelligence above the meanest mediocrity, or producing a single individual whose memory would sur vive him for a twelvemonth aster his decease. The assertion of such a fact, we say, would appear an open affront to human nature, laad we not to fall hack upon an adequate and obvious. cause in the arbitrary rule and benumbing influence of Popery—of that sort of Popery which enters into and meddles with the affairs, interests, and actions, of private life, to a degree beyond what has been experienced by the people of any country on earth but the patrimony of St. Peter, and the pro vinces of Munster and Connaught. The nobility of ' Spain were, with scarcely an exception until witlsin the last few years, so harassed and terrified by the In quisition, that they all became its sworn ins:truments and vassals. Education in such a coilntry, where the real despotism of the inquisitor d ; ..rected and aggra vated the o s t ens ibl e tyranny of One Court — e d ucat i on was a pure humbug, and the tr . ; ind of the upper classes of society became a noxious desert ; yet it is on be half of a trumpery farce lit re this, which has just been played at Madrid, and by its low c ome di ans nick named a "political '..-evolution," that the wretched Lord Palmerston, fit prompter and partaker o f suc h a scene, would bu:dy the great power of France into marching her a"..rnies, under pretext of fulfilling the obligations of a n alliance, the objects professed by which have (me and all ceased to be attainable. Even the papers connected with the Melbourne Government, and rewaial.ed for their servility by a gross abuse of the Royal patronage, begin to teach Lord Palmerston a more 'knowing lesson. We quote a passage from one af Chose prints, published a few evenings ago, where it will be seen that the Quadruple Alliance is at length c l iven up as a f or l orn h ope , an d t h at England and France, jointly and severally, are released in formal :term s from any further trouble or interference ! although the threatened cessation of that interference by Louis Philippe, on the very ground selected by the Ministerial print for his justification, has been made the text withi n this fortnight of sundry querulous, peevish, and abusive articles in no less than two other of the Whig- Radical newspapers, hot t from the Foreign-office ! Verily ye be a well-rego:iated and prosperous crew, and proper laughing-stoe'As for the people of England The completely imb ec il e c h aracter of nearly all her Statesmen and nt.ditary chiefs has rendered vain all the cal culations and expectations of the Statesmen both of France and England, and has prevented them from fully accom plishing their benevolent intention of aiding a Reform, and preventing a revolution in Spain. Now, however, that the parties have come to a conflict on political principles, and it has been made quite plain that the benevolent wishes of the two Powers cannot be fulfilled, it becomes a question whether it be any longer prudent or even prope r for France Under such ci e s and England to support either party. cumstrmees, it appears to us, though what P r etad not to conkcture even, much less to know, . ovbrnment of England and France may now resole. on, that they will r,ot be deserving of blame, should sney leave the parties jai Spain, without the slightest fv.:..ther interference, to settle the contest as they best nip_,„ Now, with respect to Portugal, we should like much to have the que s tion fairly answered—whether Lord Palmerston not receive some weeks ago from the King of Belgium, or persons in his service, the strongest assurances and warnings that a plot against the Queen's Government was actually ripe for explo sion at Lisbon, Ciat all was hollow and rotten there, and that a revolution was inevitable ? Was not infor mation to that effect conveyed repeatedly to Lord Palmerston through the same channel, and by him re peatedly scouted as unworthy of credit? Did not the Xing of the Belgians I 'lmself state th e same f ac t s , an d Utter the same prex • ..netions, to Lord Palmerston person ally, before 4.lneevening of Thursday, the lath inst. ? Did not the Foreign Secretaryof England even then pert that the intelligence was utterly, alse ? and did ilbt the account of the actual accomplishment of the 'revolution appear in the Times express of the follow ing Saturday, the 17th ? What was Lord IToward tie Walden doing all this while ? What warning of a convulsion so fatal to the Government to which he was accredited did this Whig functionary send home to his discerning patron ? And for what is Lord How zrd de Walden paid 8,000/. per annum . % These will be among the first questions asked after the meet ing of Parliament.—Tinges. It is said by the wisest of men that theta is a time for every thing, The same authority, applying his general position to individual cases, mentions, among others ) that there is a time to be silent.

They would willingly ) ore these peint . s e pnithoe the silence of their friends of the Press tit "any pric e . Th e Quarterly Revi ez e,..p n biMen yesterday, has an article on " The late S.ee‘Sion of Parliament,' in which, in an intended i .- ilidication of the recent conduct of the Peere l I.s.n injury is done them of no ordinary magni tude. The writer takes essentially the same ground' as Lord LyndhurSt did in his closing speech,. He re views the conduct of the hereditary Legislators during the past Session, and bestows the most inflated eu logiums on it. Nothing t ould be more injudicious,. Nothing could do more damage to the body t i le re viewer intended to serve. We are -eitich mistaken if this bo riot the opinion of every intelligent Tory in the kingdom. Nay, we gr i evous l y err, indeed, if L ord Lyndhurst himself do not regret the unfortunate course the reviewer has taken as deeply as any Con servative in the country . If t h e surm i ses of thd:sc who have a pretty good opportunity of " gssing," as an American w ou ld say) the state of feelin g in cer tain quarters, may be depended on, his Lordship now most bitterly laments the delivery of the speech in question, do not refer t o the unpleasant dis cussions affecting himself individually, to which that sreeech has given ris e ,— we a ll u d e to hi s sense of the serious injury that oration has done to the cause of Conservatism. He and his friends would give all the money in the coffers of the Carlton Club, that they could neutralise the effects of that speech. It is the source of infinite dismay to them that they cannot. Were the thing to do over again, his Lordship would not deliver the same speech for any reward whieh could be offered him. His ill-starred disciplo in the Quarterly doubtless thought th a t h e was d o i ng well in following in the footsteps of his " very noble and approved good master." He will soon find out his mistake—if, in deed, a hint to that effect have not already been given him from head-quarters. Nothing can possibly pro mote so rapidly and effectually a reform of the Upper House, as the keeping constantly before the public eye the misdeeds of the Tory Lords last Session. The more their friends try to justify that conduct, the more do they expose its unredeemed enormity. They might just as soon, arid with as great hopes of success, try to wash out the ebony Fro m the skin of a Hottentot, as to vindicate, to the satisfaction of any 9:le but themselves, tl:e course which the Peer pursued last Session. We doubt, indeed, whether they have suc ceereed in vindicating it to their own satisfaction. The Peers themselves, if we are not misinformed, are by no means satisfied with that course. If they are they will, doubtless, repeat it. next Session. Will they ? We are no prophets if they do.—Morning Advertiser. Not being yet sufficiently informed of the precise nature of the projected improvements in the otty of London, we must defer pronouncing any opinion upon them until we know exactly what they are. But in the mean time we trust we are not presumptuous in expressing a hope that the pulling down of churches does not, as upon a former and memorable occasion, constitute any part of what the projectors of the Cor poration designate as improvement. When we stood forward to oppose the demolition, at " one fell swoop," of more then 20 city churches, most of them beautiful specimens of the architectural genius of Sir Chistopher Wren—all of them necessary for affording the means of religious accommodation in their several districts, and not one of them standing in the way of any Judie dicious plan for enlarging and improving the principal thoroughfares of the City--when, we say, we stood forward to oppose that wholesale demolition of Christian temples in the centre of the capital of this Chaistian empire, we had a more difficult task to perform, in consequence of the then prevalence of revolutionary and destructive opi nions, than we should now have, if called forth once more to denounce and resist any project which, under the name of improvement, raised the pick-axe of Van dal destruction against the altars of Christian worship. But the report of a speech in the Common Council, attributed to Mr. L. It. Jones, induces us to believe that the future improvements of the city will be di ' rected in a better spirit than that which we felt it our duty to hold up to public reprobation. We quite agree with Mr. Jones, that the ground at the west end of Cheapside ought not to be let for building, as originally contemplated. We think that gentleman took a right view of the subject, when he said, " in stead of building at the end of Cheapside, they ought to level, in order to comply with the spirit ,of improvement which was now daily increasing. Any one who should look at the space between St. Paul's and the Post-office, must see that two more houses must be pulled down, before that passage to the Cathedral could be said to be properly opened." We observe that, in answer to the obser vations of Mr. Jones, a Mr. Deputy Westwood said he would much rather see the city of London pros.. perous than beautiful. He thought that if people wanted to see St. Paul's, there were places enough from which it might be viewed with advantage, with out any interference with the trade of the City, or addition to tile already great dangers of life and limb. So this enlightened Deputy seems to think that narrow and crowded thoroughfares are less dangerous to life and limb than open and wide ones I He also thinks the trade of the City will be improved by building new shops, although it is g enera lly a d m i tted that London is already over-shopped, and that if there were fewer shops there would be a more profitable trade. A city may be both beautiful and prosperous ) and not the less so because it is well ventilated by open thorough fares, which are as conducive to health and traffic, as to magnificence a n d prospect.—illornine• Herald. The 100/. subscription of a Mr. Wentworth Beau mont to the justice rent for Ireland, as Mr. O'Con nell nicknames a fund which he is to manage, or, in other words, to appropriate to whatever uses he thinks best, has produced unusual exultation among the par tisans of the O'Connell Government. It seems to us that our Whig-Radical contemporaries exhibit upon this occasion, in its highest perfection, the very con venient and agreeable faculty of being easily pleased. We commend and almost envy the frame of mind which they seem to possess. Nothing, it is clear, can come amiss to them when 1001. of Mr. Wentworth Beau mont's money, given to Mr. O'Connell, is sufficient to throw them into an extacy of delight. The acquisi tion of this gentleman's testimony thus given, in the most agreeable and unambiguous form, to the merits of Mr. Q'i;onnell's government is above all price. Who shall henceforth venture so much as to hint that it is possible for Mr. O'Connell's Government to be wrong when so distinguished a person as Mr. Wentworth Beau mont has given a hundred solid proofs that he think s it right ? Is not Mr. Wentworth Beaumont Mem ber for Northumberland ? Is he not known to Lord Grey and to every body else in that county as a most intellige n t, sens ibl e , coo l-h ea d e d, i n f a llibl e , andimma culate individual ? The Hon. Member's testimony to the great merits of the O'Connell Government is not merely unimpea c h a bl e —it i s conc l us i ve ; b ut w hat i s still better is, that the testimony is of that kind which can be renewed every month, or even,.if necessary, every week, with little inconvenience to the witness, and to the great advantage and gratification of the party in whose fa vour he a 0 eloquently speaks. If the world should be so inaccessible to reason as to resist the argument of Mr. Wentworth Beaumont's 1001., Mr. Wentworth Beau mont can easily make it two, or three, or four, or five hun dred, or whatever large r sum may be sufficient to make l r , Went wor th very ßea u krd il o t s testimony irresistibl e .

AFiLiCTIN‘G DEATH O'F LIEFITT, IWIT, —Last night an in nest WAs gie94. 4 11.ierlin's Cave Taveran k Pentonville, before Mr. Stir ling e.ild a highly respectable jury, to inquire touching the death of Sir W. Hewitt, Bart., aged 69, which took place under circnmstances of a truly lamentable The Jury havigtg been tiVc&r, kibeeick.d tO View the body of the Ateeas'ed 'Alen laid on a humble let m a small baek rftti, at NO. 52; Margar4-kreet; Wil mington-square ;it presented . a Vera, ei'paelaied z.` l ipearance, and painfully .ecited 'the feeling's all present. On the return . arthein4 toile inquest-room the following evi dence *as ltnught forward : Mrs. Elizabeth Thompson, of No, 52, Margaret-street, Wilmingtonstquare, deposed that on Saturday fortnight 4 :Lie deceased called, and engaged a small ffirnished room of her at the weekly rent of three shillings: He was pre viously a stranger to her. He only brought a small bag with him. He appe are d i n a very peer e l ate o f health.' He did not give his name but said he had just come from the country, and that it was his first time of residing in London.. Witness did not ask for any reference, as the deceased appeared a perfect gentlemen both in person and address, although his apparel was very indifferent. Wit ness was accustomed to take in his breakfast and some warm water every morning, but did not provide him any other meals. He was in the habit of going out after breakfast, and not returning until the evening. On Friday he became very much indisposed, and kept his bed. Wit ness inquired whether he would wish medical assistance to be called in, when he replied, " My good lady, that is a subject of consideration." On Saturday he became Worse, but still refused to have medical advice, and was Indifferent as to any kind of sustenance, On Sunday morning, on witness taking himsome tea, the p oor o ld gent l eman shook his head, an d, in a feel! l . voice, said, " Madam, I shall re quire no m ore i n this world. I shall never more rise from '..te bed." About half an hour afterwards, on again entering the room, witness was shocked at discovering him apparently lifeless. She immediately sent for Mr. Ander son, a surgeon, residing in Chadwell-street, who shortly arrived, and pronounced him quite dead. By the Coroner.--The deceased never paid me any rent. Upon one occasion I asked him, when he seemed powerfully perplexed, and said it was not convenient for him to pay me then. lam convinced he. was suffering from great pecu niary distress, although he wished to conceal it. During, his Illness I did no t a ll ow hi m to want f or any little nourish ment he required. By the Jury-;;;;AO Visitors came to the deceased, and be fore his tleatb tad no knowledge of his rank and high ettiki'clntiOns. He always appeared very thoughtful and dtlected. If I had been aware that be was so near his end I would have took the responsibility of calling in a surgeon myself. _ _ Mr. F. Byons, of No. 2, Bedford•street, Bedford-row, col ector of King's taxes, deposed that he had known the de ceased for the last twelve years. He (deceased) was a Baronet by hereditary right, and of a very ancient family. For a series of years the unfortunate gentleman had been endeavouring to recover the estates attached to his title, but had been unsuccessful ; and the law expences resulting from the proceedings had for some period before his death reduced him to a poor dependant upon some distant relatives. He (deceased) was a gentleman of high education and attain ments, and subsequent to his misfortunes he was master of the parochial school of St. Botolph's, Aldersgate. Witness was in the habit of seeing him at his (deceased's) nephew's residence in Bedford-street, upon whom he had been chiefly dependent. Witness had lost sight of him for several months before his death. He never was married. In answer to questions from the Jury, Mr. Byons said that the deceased's nephew was now residing at Grantham, and most probably was not aware of his unfortunate uncle's distresses. The deceased of late years kept his place of abode a secret from his connections, as he (deceased) was too high-minded to be a constant burthen to them, particu larly as they were in narrow circumstances. The bag which the deceased had brought to his lodging was searched. It only contained a few articles of trifling apparel, and twelve pawnbrokers' duplicates of articles pledged during the last and present months. A letter was found addressed to the deceased from a gentleman named Woods, regretting his inability to render the unfortunate Baronet assistance. It was dated the 13th inst. Bugg, the beadle, said that only one penny was found on the person of the deceased. The Coroner and Jury said it was a most afflicting case. There could be no doubt but that the deceased's end had been hastened by the absence of proper nourishment. The surgeon gave it as his opinion that the deceased died of consumption. Verdict--" Died by the visitation of God." Last evening an inquest was held at the sign of the Black Horse, in the Kingsland-road, before Mr. BAKER, the Coroner, and a respectable jury, on the remains of a male infant, whose name was unknown, bet of which a young woman named Churchill is supposed to have been delivered. From the evidence it appeared that the child had been found in the common sewer. Suspicion fell on Ann Churchill, and it became the opinion of a surgeon on examination, that she had recently given birth to a child. This she denied. The case was ultimately adjourned over to give time for further inquiries. The female, with her master (the supposed father), and his wife, are in the meantime in custody. Yesterday evening an inquest was held at half-past six o'clock, at the Harcourt Arms, Harcourt-street, Maryle bone, before THOMAS STERLING, Esq., and a respectable jury, on view of the body of a child named Eliza Doran, the infant of George Doran, marine store dealer, of No. 7, Stingo-lane, New-road, which was suffocated on Saturday morning last, by the female servant turning up the bed in which it was lying. The mother of the child usually took it herself out of bed and brought it down stairs. On this occasion, however, she went down stairs t o b rea kf as t, l eav i ng t h e child in bed in a " turn-up" bedstead. Hannah Fitzgerald, the maid-servant, went up stairs to the bed-room, and, according to her custom turned up the bedstead. She had previously, on having oc casion to go up stairs to fetch som e " t o ps and b o tt oms ," been told by her mistress " not to awake the baby." This injunction seems, however, to have passed unheeded by her, and thus the lamentable accident occurred. The mother, hearing the beadstead creak, after having told the girl not to disturb the child, ran up stairs and found the infant suffocated. All medical aid was unavailing. The poor girl (Hannah) was deeply affected at the result of her own gross careless ness. The Jury were of opinion that it was quite uninten tional, and therefore delivered a verdict of " Accidental Death." The girl was severely admonished by the Coroner. The Grange, at Alresford, Hants, is receiving an accession of visitants. Lord and Lady Ashburton will pro bably- go to Brighton next month. The party at Flowerdale, consisting of Lord Alford, Lord Loftus, the Hon. Charles Cust, Mr. Maher, Mr. Oliver, Mr. Pearson, and Mr. Boothby, have had excellent sport, killing salmon of 241bs. and' 201bs. weight, and in one day four stags, besides a daily supply of grouse and other game. The Baron Beroldingen, Minister of Foreign Affairs to the King of Wirtemberg, with his lady and suite, have left the Clarendon Hotel, on their return to Stutgardt. During his Excellency's stay he went on a visit to their Majesties, at Windsor, accompanied by the Wirtemberg Minister. Among the recent arrivals at Bath are the Bishop of London, the Hon. Miss Haddington, Lady Fitzroy, Lady Hippesley, Dean of Wells, Rev. Archdeacon Wilkins and family, Admiral Littlehales, General Buller, General Mit chell, Colonel arid Mrs. Sherwood, Colonel Horner, Lieute nant-Colonel Lecke, Major Paget an d f am ily, C a pt a i ns C oxe , Rooke, &c. ; Rev. Messrs. Cooke, Phillips, Ashe, &c. The Rev. Canon Bowles (the poet) on Sunday preached asermon at Bremhill in aid of the funds for building and repairing of churches. Among the " old men" present, it may not be un interesting to mention that there was a gray-headed old man, ninety-one years of age, who every Sunday walks, and with remarkably erect gait, two miles up the bill, which is a very steep one, to Bremhill church. The threatened approach of winter has given way to a more warm and genial temperature. There has been al ready a difference of near 30 degrees in the night temperature of the thermometer between this week and the last. DININ G WITH A PR)Fyr.—Last week a party of eight gentlemen met to:dine at the tavern at the Bridgefoot, Westminster, at 255. per head, when upon some hesitation of who should preside, a stranger in the room, but who was sup posed to b e t h e friend of some gentleman present, proffered his services, which were thankfully accepted. After dinner he pushed the bottle about bravely, and said it was time to collect the reckoning-, which on being put into his hands, he left the room to discharge the bill and settle with the waiters, but walked off with the whole in his pocket, bidding the tavernkeeper and his wife at the bar good night. The trick was discovered by the guests expecting the return of their Chairman, and on asking what had become of him, found that he had decamped and left them to pay their reckonings da cap. The late Mr. Rudolph Ackermann, o f t h e S tran d, who was originally a coach herald painter, used to relate a similar dis aster which befel him. He was one of a party of 30 who met to dine on some festive occasion at one guinea per head, when the persons proposed to preside _modestly refused, but a stranger to the parties then in the room volunteered hand somely. He was loquacious and vastly agreeable during dinner, and when the cloth was drawn he was the jolliest of the jolly, sang gloriously, and was in fact the Apollo of the evening—called on his own acceunt for crown bowls of punch, with which he proposed to treat the party, and in the end, as their Chairman, collected the amount of the bill from each, slipped out of the room, and left them the double payment as subject Matter for their most profound meditation.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. It is belle Yea that the provisions which have been poi soned will not be sold to the public, so that the hop-pickers of Kent and the inhabitants of St. Giles's may, it is proba ble, " eat their meals in peace." The prompt and resolute course adopted by the Lord Mayor has been very gratefully noticed by several gentlemen, who do not admire the prin ciple of speculating to the hazard of human life. The fol lowing is one of the letters which he received at the very moment Mr. Sturtevant, the soap boiler, appeared, to show to his Lordship that the qualities of arsenic were sure to die upon being mixed with the ingredients of the grease tub :--- " 4, Sidmouth-place, Gray's Inn-road, Sept. 26. " My Lord,—No one who has read the accounts of last week's papers, concerning the affair of the arsenic and ba con recovered at Fenning's Wharf, but must admire your Lordship's conduct in adopting such precautionary mea sures for the sake of the community at large. In follow ing this up, and in corroboration of a statement said to have been made to your Lordship by a gentleman present of the indestructible nature of arsenic upon dead animal matter, I trust you will not deem the following account either offi cious or out of place. " In August, 1834, a foreign vessel came to an anchor on a part of the coast of Scotland, the master of which was said to be very ill in consequence of having eaten a quan tity of shell-fish (muscles, I think it was said to be), and a medical gentleman being called on board, the impression on his mind was that the nature of the case was really as represented to him. He administered the usual remedies under such cases. The man, however, died, and in a few days after his interment the vessel proceeded on her voyage. In the month of January following (a period of five months) an order was sent down from the Foreign Se cretary here, in consequence, I believe, of a communica tion from abroad, to have the body exhumed, and the sto mach examined. This operation, at which I was present (in fact, engaged in) was done, and on the occasion the stomach and bowels had the appearance as if death had only occurred a day or two previous. The contents of the stomach were analysed by Professor Trail, of Edin burgh, and from the quantity of arsenic that had been given to the poor man, the Professor was enabled to con vert a portion of it to its metallic form, and in that state, I believe, it. was sent to London, to be forwarded to the authority who instituted the inquiry. But, my Lord, the knowledge of the simple fact that people who are in the habit of preserving and stuffing the skins of birds and other animals use a quantity of arsenic in their processes is of itself sufficient to convince the most sceptical of the anti-septic powers of that dangerous mineral. " Should your Lordship find it necessary towards sub stantiating the propriety of the steps you have taken in the matter referred to, my humble testimony upon oath to the truth of the foregoing statement is ready at your Lord ship's pleasure. I have the honour to be, my Lord, your Lordship's most obedient humble servant, " CHARLES ANDERSON. " To the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor." In the performance of his public duty on this occasion, the Lord Mayor has certainly shown anything but a partial feeling. Mr. Capper, his Lordship's brother-in-law, is, we understand, the proprietor of the damaged provisions. BO W-STREET. Yesterday a woman very poorly clad, but of good ad dress, bearing an infant child in her arms, who gave her name Mary Ann Roberts, was brought before Mr. MIN &Hum., charged with having unlawfully pawned a blanket, a pillow, a flat iron, and other trifling articles, the property of Mr. William Goodridge, a tradesman in Wild-street, Lincoln's Inn-fields, in whose house she lodged. The prisoner did not attempt to deny the charge, but gave an explanation of the circumstances that had led to the commission of the offence, which created a powerful feeling of sympathy in her behalf. She had been living with a Mr. Roberts, a box-book-keeper at the Adelphi Theatre, for many years, and that, although they were never legally married, she had borne him ten children, two of whom (those above mentioned) were still under her care. Ex treme distress alone had induced her to pledge the articles. She had sold every single thing that would fetch even a farthing to procure food for her poor children, until there was nothing left but Mr. Goodridge's property !, and, un able to bear the thought of seeing them starving before her face, she pledged the goods. This was done three weeks ago, and during that period she and her children had lived upon nothing but bread and water. Her son was now literally in a state of starvation, and if relief were not very soon administered he must die. It also appeared that she had been that morning obliged to pawn her son's trousers for 4d., for a breakfast. Mr. Goodridge, the prosecutor, said he had ascertained that the story of the woman was too true. He had searched the apartment, and found nothing but a bundle of rags. Nothing could be more deplorable. The poor boy, who was emaciated beyond description, he found with a ragged jacket upon him, and destitute of trowsers, having in lieu a piece of old carpet girded round his loins. The poor boy was sitting crying on a stool. Witness had no desire what ever to press the charge. The pawnbrokers, who produced the pledged articles, ex pressing some reluctance to give them up (the whole amount being but 3s. 2d.) the worthy Magistrate ordered that sum to be advanced from the poor box. The prisoner expressed great contrition for her offence, and much gratitude for the kindness she had experienced. It is said she is related to a most respectable family. HATTON-GARDEN. On Monday morning last, Frederiet• Wale, a fine little boy, about seven years of age, who had scarcely a rag to cover him, was brought before Mr. LAING, by a constable of E division, charged with being a houseless vagrant. The constable being sworn, stated that at an early hour of the morning, he found the prisoner wandering about the streets in a state of wretchedness, and on questioning him, he said that he had no place to go to, and had been turned out of doors, but he would not tell where his father and mother lived, so he took him to the station-hovse. Mr. LAING directed the officer to take him to St. Pan cras workhouse, the parish in which he was found, and re quest them to take him in. The constable took him away, and at the evening sitting he returned with the boy and his mother in custody, and stated to Mr. Laing that be took him to St. Pancras workhouse, where they refused to ad mit him, saying that his father and mother were alive and able to support him, and they resided at No. 31, Henry street, Hampstead-road. Witness repaired thither, and found the mother of the boy, who was exceedingly affected at seeing him, and she accompanied them to the office. The mother, who cried bitterly, said that the child was by her first husband, who died about three years ago. About a year after his death she married again, and her second husband formed such an antipathy towards the un fortunate child, that he would not suffer him to live under the same roof with them, and he turned him out o f d oors . _ _ Mr. LAING—What is your husband? Mother—He is a painter. Mr. LAlNG—There is your child, and you are bound 'to protect it, and not suffer him to wander about the streets. Take him home with you, and, depend upon it, if either of you are brought here again under similar cir cumstances you will be severely punished. Mother (crying)—lf I take him home my life will be in danger. My husband swears that he will murder the child if he is in the same place with him. I dare net take him home. Mr. LAING—Take him home, and if your husband dares to do him any injury he must take the consequences ; and to-morrow morning apply to the overseer of St. Pancras' parish. The mother said she was doatingly fond of the child, and was willing to protect it ; but she was confident that some thing fatal would happen to it if she took it home, and she would prefer walking about with him all night. The mother then quitted the office with the unfortunate little fellow, and, crying, said that she would rather walk about and beg with it than take it into the presence of her husband, who bore towards it an inveterate hatred. The case excited considerable sympathy. MAR YLEB ONE. On Monday John Peries de Castanos and Pedro Caligani, the former a Frenchman, and the latter an Italian, both attired in the first style of fashion, and their persons adorned with gold shirt studs, rings, &c., were brought up in cus tody and placed at the bar, charged before Mr. RAwLiN SON with stealing frem the shop of Mr. West, seal-engraver and jeweller, No. 41, Margaret-street, Cavendish-square, a valuable gold seal. Robert Webb, apprentice to Mr. West, said his master was out of town. On that morning the prisoners, who were strangers, came in, and the first-named asked at some rings. Wit ness s h owe d him some , a nd for cnivi, which he chose ask e d 16 s . He said that was too al a and then requested to l oo k a t some seals.
