Vr SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNAL. The opinion we expressed respecting the cause of Thiers' dismissal is confirmed by the appointment of Mole. Though the King will still administer the fo reign affairs of France, the character of his Minister is an indication —Nye fear an unerring indication—of the course he will pursue. It is not worth while to dwell upon the past career of such a man as Mole, a Councillor of State under Napoleon ; a Peer under the Restoration ; after the revolution heading an op position to the Ministry of De Broglie and Guizot ; energetically declaiming against the pieces d' Avril; pleading for an amnesty, and denouncing the insolence of the 'Doctrinaires. To the pliancy of his principle we may attribute his heing now found in opposition to former colleagues in a better cause—to such men as Dupin and Gerard ; and sitting in the same Cabinet with Guizot, between whom and himself political hos tility has more than once, we believe, resulted in per sonal insult. Considerations of this kind are at the pre sent moment beside our purpose. •To the opinions of Mole we refer because he has been placed at the council table wits the portefeuille of foreign affairs in his hands, and from the character of the instrument we may form a not very inaccurate judgment of the design to b eac complisbed. Mole, the 'Foreign Minister of France, is Russian in all his predilections. He was so even 'before he became the intimate personal friend o f the Due de Richelieus—the creature; at all events, the political ally of Alexander, forced upon France by that Emperor, as its Foreign Minister after the occu pation. If anything have a stronger hold upon the mind of Mole than his devotion to Russia, it is his antipathy to Talleyrand, and to every act of that astute diplomatist. A curious and characteristic illustration of this feeling, and perhaps of its source, has been mentioned to us. After the Revolution of July Mole was appointed nominal Foreign Minister, the presiding genius being then as now, Louis Philippe. Talley rand was sent as Ambassador to the English Court. All despatches of any 'importance were directed to the King ; those sent to the Minister containing nothing but speculations, profound, no doubt, upon the variations in the prices of silks, cottons, sugars, &c. The diploma tic talent of Mole aimed at something higher than the mere framing of a tariff, and he complained to Louis of the insignificance of the dispatches from the Embassy at St. James's. ~ Que voules vous, mon cher Mole, Talleyrand baisse ; it ne ' s'occupe qu'a faire de l'esprit dans les salo ns Anglais, was the satisfactory - reply of the King, having discoveterthe truth some short time after Mole left the Ministry. For, the truth of this account we have no better authority than Count Mole himself, who, in 1832, told it, as we have told it, to Lafayette, adding the pithy commen tary, " La faussea et la duplicia du Roi des Fran cais est telle que . j'a imerais mieux servir le Sultan que de redevenzr Ministre de Louis Philippe." M. Mole has had more experience of -his-Sovereign than we have had, and we must not quarrel with his opinion. Without stopping to inquire whether tae hostility of Mole to Talleyrand proceeded from this source, we know at all events that it exists to an inveterate degree. If, then, the new Minister for Foreign Affairs were not, as we know he is, devoted to the interests of Russia, — if he were not, as we also know he is, opposed to the alliance with ' England,—(he has been more than once heard to ask, " What hope have we from an alliance with England, which merely endeavours to preserve the status quo? while an alliance with Russia would give to France, its natural boundaries"), —even if the mind of Count Mole were not thus predisposed, he would have a sufficient motive for trampling on the Quadruple Treaty in the fact of its having been, so far as France is concerned, the work of Talleyrand's skilful diplomacy. Have ' we, then, any just cause to doubt the sincerity of the " assu rance" received by our Government, that the King of the French and his Ministers are determined to ad here to the stipulations of the Quadruple Treaty. As a proof of Louis Philippe's disposition to recede from it we have adduced the dismissal of Thiers for demanding its fulfilment, which is followed by the appointment of Mole, who has even already given proof of his devotion to Russia, and of course of his hostility to the Western Alliance, by bargaining that in the Ministry should be included one who, if he does not'deserve, certainly enjoys the reputation of being a hireling lilerateur of the Cabinet of St. Petersburg. But it is unnecessary to dwell upon this point. We have said enough to produce a conviction that can alone be shaken by the future conduct of the Cabinet of the Tuilleries. Let the Queen of Spain receive from France not as a boon, or as a favour, but as a right, the aid to which she is entitled. It is our deliberate conviction that, if this aid. be not speedily accorded, the power of refusal will not long remain with Louis Philippe. The men he is about to call to his councils will not, either by their character or their policy, calm the exasperation that is growing up in-the public mind of France, and to which events that are hastening in the Peninsula may give an impulse perhaps dangerous to the stability of the Orleans dynasty.—Morning Chronicle. Several notices appear in our paper of this day which cannot fail to draw the attention of our readers to a subject of the greatest importance, viz., the pro vision of adequate accommodation, in the churches and chapels of the establishment, 'for the rapidly and con stantly increasing population of England. We feel bound to.say that this field ,of patriotic and religious duty has not hitherto been cultivated with a zeal and energy commensurate with its importance. There , has been guilty apathy upon this subject in the capital, and the bad example of the capital has been followed with too servile an imitation in, the provinces. We have recently had the satisfaction of announcing that the metropolis, stimulated by the zeal and guided by the judgment of the Bishop of London, has taken effectual steps to redeem itself from the imputation of indifference to the cause of religion. It is a melan choly truth, that at this moment there is not room in the edifices in London devoted to public worship, in conformity with the rights, discipline, and doctrines of the Church of England, sufficient for. the recep tion of more than one in ten of the population. This • — We say—is a melancholy fact. It would be a dis graceful fact but for the apology that it is an evil, the progressiv e growt h o f w hi c h . has escaped general attention. The fact is now distinctly and authorita tively proclaimed. The apology for negligence exists no longer ; and w e re j o i ce to say there is no longer any doubt that the religious feeling and the public spirit Of .the inhabitants of Loudon, now that the real state of the case has been brought distinctly under their view, will secure the s p ee d y and complete correction of this odious and pernicious vice in our social insti tutions. Nothing can be mor e gratifying than to find that the feelings which have manifested themselves so strongly in London have pervaded th e p ro vinces also. We rejoice to learn that in all our consider able towns new churches have been built, or are now in progress. B ut still more do we re j o i ce to l earn that wherever a new church has been erected there is at once found a congregation more than overflowing. We enter into no controversy as to the relative number of members of the Church of England and of Dissenters. What le sufficient for us to know, with a v i e w to our practical. duty, is, that, wherever a new c h urc h a rises in connection with the national Establishment, there is a congregation ready to occupy it. This is all that any churchman who is balancing with himself how much he ought to contribute towards the erection of new churches, in his neighbourhood has any interest to ascertain. The edifice being pro vided, is it certain that there will be a congregation sufficient to vindicate its utility ? This is the single question about which any conscientious Churchman ought to be solicitous. Is there the opportunity of doing good ? This is the only enquiry which any man should think it worth while to make. Upon a well founded answer in the affirmative his course is at once clear. The proceedings recorded by a Blackburn Conservative journal as having taken place in that town are perfectly conclusive in favour of the accuracy of our doctrine. These prOceedings present an where such an example would have been ;- - 4 04 -, - -,44:'l,exatnple , !?, , :%7:(:` ',least expected, of the zealous attachment of the mil - 11 -''../ions of our countrymen to the doctrines and wor )) k 0: r ~-; ( ship . of the national Church; and they prove that verteer , • wherever that attachment may seem dormant or .:,...›.4,„.:ei" Lever that . for the ... ,! . . inactive it is tue want merely of an appropriate ,N,; •= r - .• ! • ' • 0 1_,' "' '` 100 in which it may be exhibited. This is a subject 0, . - 15.2. - 4 . 1 ' . ich ought,, above all others, to stimulate the exer /1- lions of those who are -in possession of the means to render effective assistance to the good cause. Since the year 1821, the number of habitual worshippers at Blackburn, in connection with the Established Church has increased tenfold, while the increase of population has been in the ratio of only one to three. At the for mer period there was only one Church in this great town. There are now four, and it has been determined to erect a fifth. We sincerely hope that the other towns of England will not disregard the admonition which . this example conveys. The chief cause which deprives people of England of the full measure of advantage which they ought to derive from a national Church so pure and so excellent ,as that which is happily esta-. Wished - in this country', is, we are persuaded, the want of accommodation in our existing, Churches com mensurate with the numbers of our people. It is a duty the performance of which is sure to be attended by the immediate recompence and glory of success, to provide suitable places of worship in. connection with the Church for, the people of England everywhere, in proportion to their actual number, without the least re gard to the question whether a larger or a smaller pro portion of that number may at the present moment swell the ranks of Dissent. The strength and influence of the Church cannot be known until it has the means of inviting the whole nation to worship within its sacred portrals ; nor until the means of offering this unlimited invitation are given to; the Church will the affluent among its members have adequately discharged the duty which they owe to their country and to them selves.—Morning Post. What a practical commentary upon the veracious accounts of the Moniteur and the Queenite Journals, both of Paris and London, is afforded by the fact that the Carlist Chief Gomez—whose army and himself have been so often cut to pieces and " annihilated " in the columns of those journals—had been able to enter Palencia on the 20th ult., and, after levying a large contribution on the city, to pass into the province of Burgos. It is true, the Gallant Espartero, who had put him to the sword so often, was still in pursuit, and while always keeping at a respectful distance, this Spanish Bobadil will, no doubt, obtain fresh victories on Taper, emulating his former fame when campaign ing against the Carlists in the North, where, according to his own bombastic despatches, " Thrice he routed all his foes, And thrice he slew the slain." Basilio Garcia, too, who more than once since his entrance into Castile, has been, with his whole band, made'' crows' meat," upon the authority of Queenite Journals, has, it appears, escorted in safety to the frontiers of Navarre the recruits and the immense booty he had raised in Castile, and had returned into that province, provoking once more the process of " anni hilation" of which one would have supposed he already experienced quite enough. This is the Chief who, as our readers may remember, not long before the out break of the, drunken soldiers, at the secret instigation of the revolutionary conspirators behind the scenes, put the Court of the Regent into a terrible panic, by tra versing the country within a few leagues of La Granja, where the virtuous mother of the " innocent Isabel" was then solacing herself from the fatigues and anxieties of State in a way only that Cupid himself could describe —the fitting historian of her " wise and vigorous Go vernment." On that occasion a precipitate and ludi crous flight of Grandees, Statesmen, and Military Chiefs, took place to the capital ; but the brave Constitution alists, who are so courageous in the work of patriotic assassination, did not march out to " annihilate" the audacious Carlists, though there was no Cordova at ,La Granja to restrain their impetuous valour 1 Such are the heroes who, according to their own account, " drove the terrified eagles of Napoleon from the sa cred soil," leaving Wellington and his troops nothing to do but to witness their _admiral prowess and asto nishing exploits I Our readers have seen the more than Royal proclamation of Sergeant Garcia, the mili iary:puppet of more crafty conspirators ; but who, in toxicAted by success, now evidently considers himself the ii,:ster of those who employed him as their tool. In th4proclamation all difference of political opinion is pro, - bited, on pain of the Robespierrean process of con' tion. The logic of the absolute Sergeant is summ it is that which has always been employed by su ful democrats to produce unity of opinion, from , saniello to Marat. When employed by a single `.''spot—a Nero or a Constantine, it is called savage ? ".. abominable tyranny ; but when exercised by bloo4 . ; hirsty mobs and their leaders, it is only a just d necessary means of enforcing " liberal sentime " and putting down all opposition to the glori cause of ,democratic freedom. One of our Ma • Correspondents thus describes the " re generate, ondition of Spain, under the murderous and plun ng system of the revolutionary brigands who are at the head of affairs :—" The disorder that now, ts in the financial affairs of this country is such t , 'ts effects must be felt for several years to come, at he systematic plunder exercised by the Presiden nd Members of the Juntas has been a hundred . c greater than that which took place this, day twel ~ with. The nation is ruined—irremedia bly ruin. s , thanks to the financial operations of pa triotic M . ' s sters, and the revolutionary schemes of the emigrants f 1823. This state of things cannot last. The. pres., t; system must fall before long ; but it is horrible , d obliged to think that, previously to its i fall, the pr eht agitators in this country, convinced that their r gh is to be short, will reduce the nation to beggary, or deluge it in blood." Such is the de graded and demoralised Spain, into whose civil con tentions England has been dragged as a party by Lord Palmerston and his "Whig colleagues, who proclaim non-intervention as the Spanish revolutionists pro claim liberty, only to show how atrociously they can violate it.— Morning Herald. - - A letter from Berlin states that great alarm is created in that city by the great number of suicides and assassi nations that have lately been committed there. CAPTAIN IVIARRYAT'S NEW WORK, " MR. MIDSHIPMAN EASY."—" Captain Marryat's writings* depend for success on the truthfulness of the general impression they make, their broad effects, their sustained humour, and the ra pidity with which incident follows incident. In the present work the humorous subterfuges of Jack at Tetuan, his abduc tion of the Vice-Consul in disguise, and the cross purposes to which he reduces the two ladies and their lovers, remind us of those complex Spanish novels in which the interest consists of a curious complication of mistakes and characters. The escape of the gaily slaves, the burning of the house at Palermo, and the adventures of Mesty, who is cleverly supported through out, and the Priest in the mountains, are each excellent, as in deed arc the numerous underplots and episodes that fill the volumes. But we must refer to instead of extracting them." —Atlas. Letters from different parts of Ireland speak of arrangements being contemplated to introduce bone manure, hitherto much neglected in that country, into use, on a grand scale. Twenty bushels ground into dust are said to be the proper quantity for each acre of land. Its effects are asto nishing—vegetation is quickened, and the young plant soon gets into that state that it is no longer assailable by the de stroying fly. The expense of bone manure, mixed with other manures which may be advantageously connected with it, seems to be about one pound per cart-load. Large supplies of bones, however, are now pouring in from abroad, and it is more than suspected that some of our continental neighbours scruple not to, sell bones of their " buried ancestors" to the merchant. If such be the case, the supply is not likely soon to fall off, and the price may be expected to decline ; but, according to the views of experienced agriculturists, both in Scotland and in England at present, the value of the article is moderate.

THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAy, SEPTEMBER 9, 1836. MIDDLESEX ADJ OURNED SESSIONS, The list contains sixteen cases, one for felony, one for nuisance in keeping a gambling-house, and the remainder are for assaults. James Duke, Esq., Sheriff elect, took the oaths and qua lified as a Magistrate for the county. _Montagu Hart (indicted with James Hancock, William Canty, William Aston, Ben Lewis, George Campbell, and James Hollick Davis), appeared to take his, trial, and pleaded not guilty to a charge of keeping a gaming-house in St. James's, Westminster. _ The prosecutors, David Jacobs and Moses Jacobs, did not appear to prosecute ; and the COURT instantly ordered their recognizances to be estreated,and directed the Jury to acquit the defendants. Mr. C. JONES moved the Court to discharge the recog nizances of Charles Perry, prosecutor, against Louis Louis, Barnett Lipscomb, and Levy Lemon, gamblers and gaming house-keepers, indicted for a nuisance in maintaining the n)torious house, No. 1, Leicester-square. The Learned Counsel made his application on sworn affidavits, in which it was stated that all means used to apprehend them had failed, principally in consequence of the new police refusing to serve or execute the bench warrants granted by that Court. The affidavit particularly referred to policeman No. 22, C division, and No. 40, C division. The CHAIRMAN would respite the recognizances of the prosecutor, but would not discharge them. ° The Court then directed the affidavit to be laid before Colonel Rowan, so that he might be informed of the conduct of the policemen, who appeared to have been better paid to refuse to do their duty than they would have been if they had performed it. Mr. JONES—Yes, the Court understands these tricks. Mr. Sergeant_ ADAMS made some further strong remarks on the conduct of the policemen. The Court adjourned at half-past five o'clock to this day. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. Mr. James Woolley applied to the LORD MAYOR in con sequence of a severe loss arising from a Stock Exchange transaction, and an immediate summons was in consequence served by Daniel Forrester, the officer, upon a very respec table shopkeeper bf London, to state what he knew of the transaction. and whilst he was at work there, a • man called to in quire after a job, and saw witness at work ; be was re fused, and he left the place. After leaving Mr. Chandler he procured work at Mr. Stephenson's, but the men, who were Unionists, having been informed by the man who saw him at Mr. Chandler's that he had worked there after the " strike," he (witness) was subjected to every species of annoyance, and they were conti nually reproaching him with being a " document man," and nothing that he could say could convince them to the contrary ; and be was told that it was no matter whether he had signed a document or not, he ought not to have worked for Mr. Chandler after he knew that his men had struck for wages. About three weeks ago he had occasion to go into the country, and on his re turn in a few days, he found that his planes, the handles of his saws, and the whole of his principal tools, were deeply impressed with the words " document man," and he was obliged to leave the shop. He made inquiries as to who had been guilty of the transaction, and a lad employed on the premises informed him that he had seen the defendant do it, and he accompanied him to this office, and swore to the fact, when a summons was granted. Witness added that he procured another place of work at Mr. Brass's, in Redcross-street ; but the men, on seeing " document man " stamped on his tools, rendered him miserable, and he was forced to leave the shop, ever since which he had been out of work. Mr. BENNETT—Is it not possible- to erase the words from ypur tools ? Witness replied that they were so deeply stamped that it would render them useless. The impres sion would be left, and it would be easily discovered that they had been stamped by unionists—it was impossible for him to get employment in any shop with the same im plements. Mr. LAING—What do they mean by "document man ?" The Clerk explained that when the strike for wages took place at Messrs. Cubitt's, in Gray's Inn-road, they deter mined on not employing any man unless he signed a docu ment not to join the Union, from which the term " docu ment man" originated. Mr. Gibbon, a professional adviser for the defendant, contended that as there was no direct evidence against his client, he ought to be discharged. Mr. BENNETT said—l regret that there is not sufficient evidence to prove a case, or the party should be severely punished. I must, under the circumstances, discharge the defendant ; but I must say that it is a most infamous pro ceeding. The complainant,then left the office, and at the outside he was met by a gang of working men belonging to the Union, who hooted after and called him names of an opprobrious nature, and' the poor fellow hastened off evidently in fear of having violence offered to him. " WHO ARE YOU?"—Marl Patterson, alow prostitute, was brought up by a police constable of the E division, charged with being drunk and creating a disturbance on Wednesday night last at a late hour. The constable stated " Who are you ?" was a cant ques tion now in vogue amongst the lowest blackguards in Lon don, and on Wednesday night last, while he was on duty in Holborn, the prisoner was drunk and creating a disturbance, assailing every one with " Who are you ?" Witness or dered her away, on which she said " Who are you ?" and refusing to go he told her " who he was," and took her to the station-house. Mr. BENNETT (to the prisoner)—" Who are you ?" What are you ? Prisoner—l get my living at the needle. Mr. BENNETT (to the constable)—Do you know her? Constable—Oh, yes, your Worship, very well. Mr. BENNETT—Then what is she? Constable—The most drunken prostitute that we have to deal with. Mr. BENNETT—She is fined 55., or seven days imprison ment. Mr. Woolley on Wednesday sold to Mr. C. Chapman, the stock-broker, 1,000 Portuguese 5 per Cent. Bonds, and was paid for them by a check upon Ladbroke's for 6851. The check was returned for want of assets. Mr. Chapman had stated that he wanted the bonds for his frietid, who was going out of town immediately—a representation which was found to be untrue. Mr. Woolley afterwards ascertained that immediately after Mr. Chapman secured the bonds, he pawned them for 6001. to a member of the Stock Exchange, from whom he insisted on receiving bank-notes, which bank-notes, there was every reason to suppose, were placed in the possession of the shopkeeper. In fact, the latter had admitted that such was the case. The Shopkeeper—The facts were briefly these :—This Mr. Chapman is a collector of assessed taxes, and I am his security. I had not seen him for months, and when I last saw him he told me that his pocket had been picked. I received a letter from him, containing Bank notes, but not at all to the amount mentioned by Mr. Woolley. The LORD MAYOR—Have you got that letter ? The Shopkeeper—No ; but I recollect the contents, which stated that he had been speculating in foreign securities, and brought himself into difficulties, and that he hoped he (the shopkeeper) would not be much a loser. The let ter concluded in some very deploring words about his wife and children, and I was afraid that he might make away with himself. I paid the amount (4001.) into the hands of Mr. Till, who is at the head of the Land-tax Office, but I do not know what my liabilities may be. Mr. Woolley—That 4001. I told you not to part with, as it was my property. The Shopieep - er-LHow did I know that it was your money he sent to me ? Mr. Woolley—You had not paid it to Mr. Till before you saw me, and we spoke upon the affair. The Shopkeeper—l received a portion of the Govern ment money, with which he had been gambling, from him, and I paid it to the Crown. The LORD MAYOR—Mr. Chapman makes away with property not his own, and then robs Mr. Woolley to re place. The conduct you have pursued in this case, Sir, has not been at all prudent. Mr. Woolley—Were you not in possession of the money this morning, when I spoke to you about it ? The shop keeper hesitated in his answer to this question, but the LORD MAYOR having asked him whether he was disposed to compromise his character by an evasion of this kind, and having repeated Mr. Woolley's question, he answered in the affirmative, to the best of his knowledge. The case was, he added, distressing to all parties. It was evident that Mr. Chapman had been swindling Mr. Woolley. Ha was himself security_for Mr. Chapman, who had sent him a certain portion of his liabilities, and he was not to know that the money was Mr. Woolley's. Mr. Woolley—l told you not to part with it. The LORD MAYOR—Depend upon it, Sir, that Mr. Woolley has a strong case for action against you, and will recover the money. The Shopkeeper—How am Ito know when a gentleman has been robbed that the bank-notes I have received are the identical notes which have been taken from him ? The LORD MAYOR—It will be shewn to you that these are the identical notes, for Mr. Till will pay them into the Bank this day, where they are stopped. The LORD MAYOR then told Mr. Woolley that he should grant a warrant for the apprehension of Mr. Chap man, but Mr. Woolley said he should wait the result of the next day's inquiry. She was then committed to the House of Correction. Ann Kearney was charged by Mr. Tourkay, confec tioner, of William-street, Regent's Park, with having as saulted him whilst passing through the street, without any provocation. Mr. LAING asked the prisoner how she procured her living ? Prisoner—l am a married woman. Mr. LAING—What is your husband? Prisoner—He is a performer. Mr. LAING—What sort of a performer ? Prisoner—ln legerdemain. He goes to the fairs and the races for his living. Mr. LAING—You mean that he is a conjuror, don't you ? Prisoner—Yes, a conjuror. Mr. LAING—No doubt ; he can conjure the property out of people's pockets ; that is, he is no more than a com mon vagrant or vagabond. Mr. FLOWER (a Magistrate)--I suppose he is a thimble . rig man. Duke, the officer, knew him to be a regular " thimble rigger" at the races ; and he asked where he was at present ? She was fined 55., or to be committed to prison, which she could not conjure up, and she was sent to perform at the House of Correction. G UILDHAL L. Yesterday, a stout elderly man, of respectable appear ance, named Joseph Sharp, the landlord of the Hand-in- Hand beer-hop, in Hosier-lane, was brought up in the cus tody of Roe, the Guildhall officer, charged with defrauding Mr. Newport, a cheesemonger, in St. John. street, of two hams and a cheese, value 1/. 12s. The prisoner was remanded till Saturday. BO W-STREET. Yesterday Thomas Litcomb, late serjeant and clerk to the F division, who stands charged on suspicion of having stolen 1361. 10s. from the station-house, was brought up for final examination. _ _ ...... Mr. Superintendent Hartley handed in a letter addressed anonymously to the Commissioners of Police, the object of which, as well as we could gather, was to throw the guilt upon another person connected with the force. Sir F. ROE could pay no attention to a communication of that kind. As it was, the case must go to a Jury as it stood. Mr. Robinson, for the prisoner, asked as a favour that his client might be allowed to go back to Clerkenwell until the time of trial, instead of being sent to Newgate. The object was that he might have more free and unrestrained communication with his friends. Sir F. ROE said that in Newgate the prisoner would have means of communicating with his friends and legal ad visers at certain hours of the day, which be conceived would be amply sufficient for the purposes of his defence. The prisoner, who, under the advice of his Solicitor, said nothing, was then fully committed to Newgate to await his trial at the next sessions of the Central Criminal Court. He was, we understand, bred to the medical pro fession, and is most respectably connected. Victoire Dufour, alias Narbonne, who stood charged last week with having at different times obtained monies to the amount of 21. 16s. from Mr. Gregorie, by pretending to be deaf and dumb, and in a state of destitution, was finally examined. _ ...... The prisoner, it will be recollected, was found on the steps of the Westminster Hospital, apparently in a dread ful state of destitution, and conveyed to Queen-square, where he pretended to be deaf and dumb, attributing that calamity to the effects of a thunder-storm. He pretended to have been a merchant at St. Lucie, which island he left to go to Paris to be cured, taking with him 5,500 francs. This money, he said, he was fleeced of at the gaming houses in Paris, and came to England without a sous. All this was afterwards found to be utterly false. The prisoner being now asked if he had any thing to say, stated, through an interpreter, that being destitute on his arrival in this country, he thought it the lesser crime of the two to tell a lie than to turn thief.—(A laugh.) Mr. MlNsounn requested the interpreter to inform the prisoner, that although, legally speaking, simply telling a lie was not an offence, yet that if a lie were told for the pur pose of obtaining money he was liable to punishment as a rogue and vagabond. The prisoner seemed quite astonished at this piece of information. - The law was then fully explained to him by the inter preter, and he was committed to hard labour for three months in the House of Correction as a rogue and vagabond. As he left the bar he turned round in a violent passions and in French exclaimed (translated), D— m !--three months for only telling a lie ! D--n the English law." HATTON-GARDEN. Yesterday John Weedon, a journeyman carpenter, was brought to this office, on a summons, before Messrs. BEN NETT and LAING, charged by George Weston, another journeyman carpenter, with having willingly injured his tools, so as to prevent him getting employment. The defendant belonged to the Trades' Union, and was in the employ of Mr. Stephenson, builder, of Theobald's road, Red Lion-square. About two years ago, subse quently to the strike amongst the men in the employ of Mr. Chandler, a builder, No. 72, Gray's Inn-lane, witness called upon that individual, and obtained employment, QUEEN-SQUARE. Yesterday James Whitelaw, a crack waterman upon the Thames, was charged before Messrs. BURRELL and WHITE, with robbery upon premises belonging to the Commissioners of Woods and Forests. He was remanded until Tuesday. MARYLEBONE. Yesterday, Elizabeth Tricker, a good-looking young wo man, was charged with having stolen a quantity of valuable jewellery from the residence of her master, Mr. Joseph Patch, No. 26, Bayhamyterrace, Camden-town. Mr. HosiaNs had no doubt of the girl having some male accomplice in the robbery, and remanded her to afford time for inquiry. Yesterday three dashing young men, named Geo. Kean, and John Kean (brothers), and William Anderton, the first a solicitor, the second a surgeon, and the last a managing clerk, were charged with having wilfully broken two large squares of glass in the drawing-room window of Lord Foley's house, Portman-square. Police Constable 32 D, at a late hour bn the previous night, saw the three defendants walking arm-in-arm toge • ther in Seymour-street. They were very drunk, and rent the air with their noisy mirth. He followed them at some little distance into the above square, when hearing the smashing of glass, be ran up, and found that the prisoners had, by means of the pipes which they were smoking, broken two squares of glass worth 10s. in the drawing-room win dow, which caused the greatest alarm to the family. He then took them to the station-house. _ _ The defendants said that being amateur musicians, they had been performing, on the night in question, some sacred music at a Methodist Institution, and were returning borne through the above square, when some person broke the glass and ran away, when the policeman seized them, and accused them of having done the mischief. It was hardly necessary to say that they were perfectly sober, it being pre posterous to suppose they could get intoxicated at a Me thodist meeting. The constable repeated that they were drunk, and that lie was positive they broke the glass, by throwing their pipes at it. Mr. HOSKINS accordingly ordered them to pay for the broken glass, and mulcted them in the sum of ss. each for being drunk. MARLBORO UGH-STREET. An elderly woman cleanly dressed, named Eliza Morris, was placed at the bar, charged with having unlawfully pledged certain bed-curtains, the property of her employer, Mrs. Jennings, residing at 2, Dufour-place, Broad-street. The MAGISTRATE ordered her to be imprisoned for a month. LAMBETH-STREET. Yesterday Lea, the officer, communicated to the Magis trates the circumstance of a determined attempt at suicide made by a female in the vicinity of the office on the pre ceding evening. Lea stated that, on the day before a young female, named Johanna Dove, had applied at this office for a warrant against a person for unlawfully pawning some articles of property belonging to her, but in conse quence of her appearing to be in liquor at the time, she was told by one of the Magistrates to come again, when she was sober. In the evening, about seven o'clock, while he (Lea) was at the office-door, he observed her sitting on the steps of a door opposite, a pp aren tly ver y ill, and vo mitting violently. He in consequence walked towards her, and finding in her hand a paper on which the words " sugar of lead—poison," were legibly written, he instantly sent for a hackney-coach to convey her to the hospital ; but be fore he had done so, she exclaimed that it was useless, for that she would be dead in less than ten minutes, as she had swallowed the contents of another paper of the same sort of stuff. On her way to the London Hospital she continued very ill, and said she was sure she should die, but hoped God would forgive her. The stomach pump was with some difficulty applied, as she persisted in denying that she had taken any thing, notwith standing her previous acknowledgment to him (Lea), and much of the poi sonous ma tt er wa s ejected ; but she still remained in a very precar i ous s t a te. On making subse quent inquiries he had ascertained that she had been to a cook-shop in Church-lane, Whitechapel, and that while there she had been to the yard. He (Lea) in consequence examined the premises, and in the water-closet he found the second paper he then produced on the ground, with the words, " sugar of lead—poison," written on it, in the same manner as the other. On their way to the hospital, Dove told him the cause of her taking the poison was, that 13 young man, a sailor, with whom she had lived for seven years, had returned on Sunday last from the West Indies, and being told that during his absence she had shamefully misconducted herself,. he had made up his mind to have nothing more to do with her. She had met him two or three times in the course of the day, but he passed her by without taking the slightest notice of or speaking to her, and she had, therefore, made up her mind to terminate her existence. TH.-IME S- OFFICE. Yesterday a black man, in the garb of a seaman, who gave the name of Nicholas Aadrews, was brought before Mr. BALLANTINE and Mr. BRODERIP, charged with com mitting an assault of a very savage and outrageous descrip tion on a girl named Emma Wilcox, WllO was brought into the office by her parents, with her face disfigured and one of her eyes .closed, swollen and cut in a manner which ex cited the greatest sympathy and indignation among the people in the office. The prisoner, a ferocious-looking fellow, could not say whether he struck the child or not, as he was drunk. Mr. BALLANTINE sentenced the prisoner to pay a fine of 51. to the King, which they knew he was unable to raise, and therefore ordered him to be imprisoned, in default, for two months in the House of Correction. SALE OF HIS MAJESTY'S SHIPS. Yesterday at two o'clock, pursuant to order, issued by the Commissioners for executing. the Office of Lord High Admiral of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ire land, a squadron of superannuated ships of the line, frigates, and other Government vessels were put up for sale by Dutch ,auction in the hall of the Admiralty Office, Somerset-place. Sir Thomas Troubridge and Lord Dalmeny were the Commissioners superintending the sale. A number of emi nent shipowners and builders, connected with the Port of London, and also from Chatham, Portsmouth, Plymouth, Liverpool, Glasgow, Dublin, and other places were in at tendance. The ships and vessels to be sold were the fol • lowing : Guns. Toni. Lying at Scarborough Surley (lighter) Greenwich Salisbury Swallow (packet brig) Zephyr (packet brig). ... .. 228 Experiment Santa Margarita The conditions of sale having been read, Mr. Allen, the auctioneer, put up the Scarborough at 7,500/., and, ac cording to the inverted style of Dutch auction, continued offering the vessel, deducting 101. from the original propo sition at every announcement until he had descended to the sum of 6,220/., when Mr. Thomas Ward, of Shad well, bid for her at that sum, and the vessel was knocked down to him. At sales by Dutch auction there is no com petition of bidders, but each speculator having himself or his agent examined and estimated the ship, or the object for sale, sets the price he would give for it in his book, and when the sum demanded is reduced to this, or fortunately a few score pounds below it, he calls out to the auctioneer, and the sale is effected, Mr. Ward having deposited 25 per cent. of the purchase money according to the conditions of sale. The Surley was then put up at 700/. The price of this craft, which was said to be in good condition, was allowed to descend to 4001. without a bidder, when the Commis sioners not thinking it proper to make any further abate ment, Sir Thomas Troubridge desired the auctioneer to stop. The Greenwich was then put up at 7,500/. As the abatements came below 5,5001., many seemed inclined to bid ; however, they were allowed to descend to 5,3101., when she was knocked down to Mr. Sedyer, of Rotherhithe, for that sum. The Salisbury was put at 5,6001., but no bidder having offered, at 3,0001. the sale was stopped. The Swallow, which is said to be a beautiful brig, was put up at 1,200/., and bought somewhat suddenly by Mr. Wheeler for 1,0001. The Zephyr was offered at 1,0001., and bid for at 6501. by Mr. Greenwood, of Plymouth. That gentleman thought that he had spoken out contemporaneously with the de duction of the next 10/., but several gentlemen having stated that the auctioneer did not say 640/. he paid a deposit of 1701. The Experiment was offered at 2,500/., and stopped by the Commissioners at 1,400/. When the Santa Margarita was put up at 2,5001., Mr. Christal said that he should feel obliged if Sir Tho mas Troubridge would inform him whether it was the fact that by a recent statute a duty of 50 per cent. was imposed on the purchaser of a foreign vessel from the Commissioners ? Sir T. Troubridge said that he was not aware ; but at that time he could not precisely answer in the negative. Mr. Christal said that he had been so informed by the Custom House officers, so that should he buy the Santa Margarita at 7001. he must pay 350/. more to the Commis sioners of the Customs. He had frequently bought foreign ships from the Government, and had always broken them up, without being applied to for duty. If the tax he spoke of, then, were in existence, it must have been very recently enacted. He would, however, hand a letter which be had received from Sir Thomas Troubridge's secretary on the subject. Sir Thomas Troubridge, having read his secretary's letter, said that Mr. Christal's question was already answered, and, as it appeared, in the affirmative ; for it stated that the pur chaser of a foreign vessel was subject to a duty of fifty per cent. This announcement excited great interest amongst the bidders. Mr. Christal hoped the question would be now set at rest, as he was anxious that the purchasers should not be permitted to deceive themselves. Lord Dalmeny, having looked over the statute, said that as the Santa Margarita, though originally foreign, had been registered ps a British vessel, the duty would be but fifteen per cent. on the purchaser. Mr. Christal said that even 15/. per cent. would be a heavy tax on the purchaser. For Iris part he should not purchase unless he were protected against duty by a written declaration from the Commissioners. The Commissioners promised to guarantee the purchaser of the Santa Margarita from all demands for duty. The bidding was then resumed, and Mr. Browne, of the firm of Browne and Askayne, bought her for 1,710/. Purchasers of King's ships are not allowed to refit any vessel larger than a sloop—all others must be broken up ; nor is the agent of any foreign State allowed to purchase them. The purchaser must pay the remaining 75 per cent. within two months, and take away the ships, or forfeit the deposit. All copper articles and articles of mixed metal found afterwards in the vessel, marked with the broad ar row, are to be returned to the nearest King's stores, where the proprietors will be paid Hid. per lb. for the copper articles, and 9d. per lb. for those of mixed metal. Before the ships are delivered each buyer is to produce a declara tion to the store-keeper of the yard where they are lying that he has not given, or caused to be given, nor will thereafter give, or cause to be given, to any officer, clerk, labourer, or other person or persons employed by or any under the Commissioners, and concerned in the delivery of the said ships, or to any other person or persons, on their, or any of their, behalf, any money, beer, or other liquor, or any other consideration whatever ; and, further, that he has not at any time entered into any private agree ment or understanding with any person or persons whom soever, that the ship or vessel so purchased shall be dis posed of or sold by any knock out imitation of sale, mock auction, or otherwise, and that no other person has any in terest in the purchase than those whose names were given in as the purchasers at the time of his signing the agree ment for purchase. FINE INSTANCE OF CHRISTIAN CHARITY.— For many months past the clergymen, (with one solitary ex ceptions) of all the different denominations in Airdrie, have been in the habit of preaching by rotation to a number of aged and destitute poor people in the town school-house on the Sab bath evenings, and of distributing Bibles and other books for the instruction of those who found it convenient to attend. The object contemplated by the clergymen in giving discourses in the school-room alluded to was that they might thereby draw together a number of persons, who, from infirmity or destitute circumstances in life, were unable or unwilling to attend the ordinary places of public worship ; and such was the success attending their labours in this undertaking, that the place be came gradually filled with the very persons for whose benefit it was contemplated. Some time ago a few narrow minded bigots were found mean enough to interfere with the East Pa rish Committee (whose property the Town School is) and, aided by a paragon of anti-voluntaryism, they ultimately suc ceeded in depriving the poor of their place of meeting. In these peculiar circumstances, and having no place equally central to meet in, the idea of continuing these evening discourses was about to be given up, when some one suggested the pro. bability of getting the Catholic Chapel, Accordingly, no time was lost in making application to the Catholic clergy of Glasgow, and, to the honour of that body be it mentioned, they not only granted the Airdrie Catholic Chapel for the purposes already specified, but they forwarded a letter to the Presbyterian clergymen here, couched in the most polite terms, and expressing the gratification it afforded them to grant the Chapel for such a purpose. But the most singular part of this singular affair remains to be told—that Sabbath after Sabbath, the Popish Priest—the gowned Presbyterian Churchman —the Voluntary Seceder—the pious Burgher— and the saint-like Cameronian—may be seen wagging their heads from the same pulpit and place of meeting—the property of the despised and calumniated Catholics !—Conimumcate ,l to the Glasgow Argus. We have had a week of very stormy weather, in cluding one or two days of very heavy rain. On Thursday and Friday the rivers and brooks in the neighbourhood were very much swollen, inundating the low lands, and in some in. stances doing, a good deal of mischief to the standing crops. A good deal of grain is cut in the forward districts, but very little housed, and there are complaints already of its beginning to sprout. We fear the wheats in this neighbourhood, and over the county generally, are going to turn out very ill, They are short in the ear, thin on the ground, and ill fed. Barley and oats, the latter in particular, will be good crops, and should oats retain anything like the high price relative to wheat which they have borne for the last two or three years, the mountain fafrners will not be so ill off. —W hitehaven lire, • - • .0 _,••••• SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE, VESSELS ENTERED INWARDS AT THE CUS• TOM-HOUSE, SEPT. 8.
