Sty;: i 4a. tri _~.~~ HI V SECOND EDITION. eite LONDON. MONDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1844. The Dublin Evening Mail, which is the leading organ of Toryism in Ireland, professes to be not a little perplexed and grieved at the recent elevation of Mr. ERLE to the judicial bench. Sir ROBERT PEEL, argues our Contemporary, should not have presumed to make any such obnoxious appointment. He should have deferred to party prejudice, and surrendered all opinions of his own on the subject. What, though Mr. Enui be one of the soundest lawyers of the (lay, and every way qualified to do credit to the high office of judge; what, though he be moderate in his politi cal views, exemplary in point of character, placid and forbearing in temper, and just of an age to enable him to discharge his official duties with spirit, judgment, end punctuality ?—what, though he possess all these valuable judicial qualifica tions, and even more ? he is a Whig ! that is to say, he has been seen sitting behind Lord JOHN RUSSELL on the Ministerial benches, though his voice has seldom or never been heard in Parliament ; and this fact alone should have decided the Premier on rejecting his claims to a judgeship! A Tory only should have been appointed to the post left vacant by the resignation of Mr. ERSKINE, even though he might not happen to possess one single qualification for it. Such is the tendency of our Dublin Contemporary's arguments, who, in the bitterness of his spleen at Mr. ERLE'B promotion, takes the opportunity of de claring—what, by the bye, we knew before— that the Irish Tory party are, to a man, in a state of grievous discontent with Government, and by no means solicitous to give it any very active support. " The Roman Catholics," says the Mail, " are disaffected to British institutions ; the Protestants are discontented with the mode in which those institutions are at present administered. Both parties are dissatisfied, to the fullest extent of the term, with the existing posture of affairs." Our Contem porary then goes on to state on what terms the Irish Tories will renew their alliance with Government, abandon all distrust and jealousy, and throw the whole weight of their influence into the Ministerial scalq.„ -"It is for Ministers to consider," hyeeaadrdid%oisr, ENV S i-PwLiethAsbV they will still hope to tide over trUsting for saf e ty t o t h e continuancea of - skins ncl„cliscords am ong the Irish People; or whether. they will adopt the larger and more statesmanlike; policy of binding to themselves, by , an extended care of th e great interests ~~. Hitherto the Premier's financial ventures have been favoured with a marvellous succession of fair wea ther. With whatever temerity he has embarked on enterprises from which his friends and his foes would have equally dissuaded him, there can be no question that he has always had "lucky runs," and got into port under circumstances that would have probably swamped many bolder and more resolute statesmen. To one so confident in his star, "light airs" from in auspicious quarters may blow, it seems, unheeded. Probably the recent meetings which have been held to petition the Legislature for the repeal of the malt tax and the tea duties, are regarded only as "gentle breezes" by him who has sailed, in three •successive seasons, through all the hurricanes which blow over the expanse affected by " the property-tax ;" yet we think we may predict for him some coming tempest which he will find it more difficult to weather than he anticipates. The little breeze, of which he may now make small account, will soon increase into a raging gale, blowing from all quarters. In other word, Sir ROBERT will soon learn the formidable issue sa! that scheme of currency, which he has sacrificed the position and fortunes of so many in the attempt to uphold, regardless, alike, of the cruelty and the impolicy of leaving the underpaid and overworked industrious classes to defray the vast bulk of that indirect taxation on commodities which the com pulsory establishment of prices, regulated by a fixed cheap price of gold, leaves them, in the first place, instead of the wealthier consumers, to defray ; and, in the second, to defray out of wages reduced in s more than corresponding proportion to such dete- riorated prices. Prima facie, therefore, the ease which the indus trial classes have to urge is a very powerful one for the repeal of the duties on malt and tea; two com modities which, as the most essential, are also the most extensively consumed elements of their subsist ence. But the average annual yield of the malt-tax to the public Exchequer is not less than 5,000,0001., and of the tea duties than 3,000,0001. Now, these appeals for their extinction, or very great reduction. have the prescription of many precedents in a long series of past years in their favour. At no former period had the petitioners so strong an equitable title to the indulgence of Parliament. By their energy, assiduity, patience, and intelligence, manufacturing production throughout all its branches has been not only incredibly improved in all its proceFses, but has extended the variety and the sum of its fabrics to an , amount capable of supplying at any notice the de mands of all the world. Unhappily—(an all important proposition which the various tracts published by the Society for the Emancipation of Industry have powerfully demonstrated)—there exists no principle of distribution to diffuse these products among th( meritorious, but impoverished hands, whose unmiti gated toil has produced them. From the labours of a busy life, devoted to the supply of all that car minister to the comforts and luxuries of those above them, they derive to themselves nothing more than stinted necessaries to support their toilsome career of privation and misery. It is difficult, then, on the one hand, to deny that they have a reasonable title to ex pect to be relieved, say from 50 per cent., of the taxa tion on tea and on malt. But, on the other hand, it seems as difficult, at least, to conceive how the Premier, whom a property-tax of 5,200,0001. per annum barely enables to tide over the annual expenditure of the country with a surplus of revenue, the aggre gate of which is more than ten times the sum of that tax—is to concede the sacrifice or the 4,000,0001. forming a moiety of the joint product of the duties on malt and tea. Nevertheless there is, in reality, one certain means, one infallible course, open to the Premier, and which we have over and over again pressed upon him the necessity for his adopting, upon every consideration connected with his own fame and his country's welfare. Let him repeal his disastrous Gold Standard Bill of 1819 ; let him at once recal his so-called " complement" of that Bill of last year. Let him lower his compulsory bullion principle to the point of compelling the Bank to pay its notes in gold —not at a fancy statutable, cheap price, but at its current, varying, "market" price. Let him thus communicate the true and invaluable power of representation, not of mere arbitrary value, to the incalculable property of this empire, for ever seeking investment, but unable to find it for lack of a safe, because an expensive, circulation. Where the power of circulation is arbitrarily contracted and re pressed, the power of realising and representing pro perty is proportionably destroyed. Had there been such a monetary system as would allow of taxation being added to prices, artisans and labourers would have been now receiving living wages, and the Excise duties would not have been found so in tolerable by that enormous community of consumers. But the whole of this part of the case is excellently put in the following passage from the " Circular" of the Society we have just named, addressed to the Lords in July last, and now re-published in their " First Report," of which we shall give an early notice : " That whenever prices expand in this country to a remunerating level—namely, to that just and proper level which permits of taxation being added to natural or gold prices —then, under our present system, gold, not being permitted to rise in price, becomes thecheapest commodity in the British market, and is sure to be ex ported in preference to our manufactured goods. " That the large amount of taxation in this country, levied first by Customs and Excise on the producing classes, to the extent of about thirty-five millions an nually, enhances the price of all commodities produced, and consequently requires a circulating medium so ex lLnsive in its nature as to permit taxation, indire c tly evied, to be added to natural price ; without such a medium, the taxation, for the most part, rests upon the producing classes—an end unjust, impolitic, in its issue ruinous, and never contemplated by the Legislature when this form of taxation was imposed." We have received Madrid journals of the 3d inst. General PRIM'S trial it appears was postponed from the 2d to the 4th. He was to be tried by court martial, consisting of general officers, with General ESPELETA, as President. In the Chamber of Deputies the fifth paragraph of the address, which relates to the Church and clergy, gave rise to some discussion. Senor CARRASCO moved that the words " without prejudice to national property" should be added. Several Members spoke, and it was elicited during the discussion, th..a of the country, a powerful and permanent party, at the same time eschewing paltry connexions, and declining the retail purchaie of petty foes, or stil paltrier hireling friends." The meaning of the above passage, carefully as it is worded, is very obvious. If Sir ROBERT PEEL will consent to throw the Liberal party overboard ; give the lie direct to all the declara tions he has made since his accession to office in favour of Free-trade; fling all idea of further Re form in Church or State to the winds ; and abandon his intention—formally announced in the House of Commons towards the close of the last session—of increasing the annual grant to Maynooth, and placing the Irish education sys tem on an improved and enlightened basis ; if the Premier will only consent to stultify and degrade himself in this fashion, and submit without a murmur, as in the olden time, to the imperious mandates of Toryism, then the Irish Orangemen will gladly give him their most strenuous approbation and support; but if he will not so demean himself, but will insist, instead, on acting in accordance with the dictates of his own judgment, then he must be pre pared to encounter their bitterest hostility, for no Minister will they condescend to patroni se who is not prepared fully to acknowledge the great principle of Tory ascendancy. Verily these are modest pro positions on the part of Irish Toryism, and their modesty will appear the more remarkable, when we take into consideration the declining state of that party in Ireland and elsewhere. It has lost much of its old influence, the course of events is daily work ing more and more to its disadvantage; and, as if this were not quite sufficient humiliation. it is no longer an united party, but is split into two distinct sects—the Moderates and Immoderates. And yet it presumes to dictate terms to Sir R. PEEL, just as though it were once again lord of the ascendant in this, as well as in the sister country 1 But the Pre mier, if we mistake not, will be far too wise to close with the terms proposed to him by these noisy, swag gering political bigots. lie knows his own position too well to be likely to compromise it by any decided retrograde movement, such as a renewed alliance with Toryism would be sure to involve him in. It is far more probable that he will effect a junction with the Liberals than with the Tories, for the strength of the former, both within and without Parliament, is increasing in exact proportion to the decline of the latter. the members of the Government had given explana tions, in the Jommittee on the addrtss, to the effect that it was their determination to keep inviolate the sales already male. The Minister of Finance ad mitted the principle of the amendment, and pledged himself that the Government would lay the decree, suspending the sale of the national property, before the House in a few days, when M. CARRASCO could again bring forward his amendment ; but, in the mean time, he requested him to withdraw it. Senor MARTIN= DE LA, ROSA also asserted that GIJILDHALL.—(THIS D. Robert Thompson was charged before Sir John Pirie with having stolen Gl. from a public-house in Smithfield. Mrs. Lee, the landlp.dy of the Half-moon, Smithfield, st!ted that the prisoner came to her house on Thursday night about quarter-past eleven, and engaged a 13wd for the night. lie went direct from the bar to the bedroom. She closed the house a few minutes before twelve o'clock, and placed 61. in silver, which was in a canvass bag, in a room on the second floor. In the morning she found that the prisoner had left the house, and that the money was gone. Mrs. Lee's servant swore that the prisoner was the man who slept at the house on Thursday night. Police-constable 456 stated that he went to 102, High-street, Wapping, accompanied by the last witness, where he found the prisoner. The last witness said, " That is the man that slept at my mistress's house on Thursday night." The prisoner immediately turned round, and said, "Do you mean to say that I slept at the Half Moon?" although the name of the house had not been mentioned by either of them. A solicitor who attended for the prisoner called seve ral witnesses, who gave the prisoner an excellent cha racter. His brother-in-law's servant deposed that he did not leave the house, 102, Wapping, on the night of Thursday. It appeared, however, that she had formerly been in the service of the prosecutrix, and left her iu a somewhat mysterious manner. it was the intention of the Government to keep the sales inviolate, and the amendment was withdrawn. The Committee on the Reform Bill had finished their labours, and the report was to be read on the sth, when it was expected the debate would commence. The more important changes proposed by the Com mittee are the exclusion of any of Don CARLOS'S family from a marriage with the QUEEN, the presen tation of the budget, and all financial laws, to the Cortes, and the withdrawal of the clause for restoring the ancient privileges of the mili- tary and clergy. A slight alteration was made in the regency clause by which a special law should be passed by the Cortes for the appointment of a Regent, in case the Sovereign should be notoriously unable to govern, as in the case of FERDINAND VII., during his imprisonment in France. On the 2d, the Three per Cents. closed at 27i cash, and 27i at 60 days. Five per Cents. 201 at 60 days. The solicitor contended that he had given sufficient proof that the witnesses had been mistaken in the pri soner, and that he was entitled to his discharge. Sir Jolt)/ ham could not satisfy his own mind in the case, unless he sent it before a jury. He had no objec tion to remand the prisoner, and he was accordingly re manded until Thursday.

The most important intelligence from Paris is the announcement in the Journal des Debats that the Government have at last resolved to complete forth with a loan of 200,000,000 f. (8,000,0001.) The loan will be offered in the usual form for competition, and it was expected that an official announcement to that e rect would apps: r t'seMn *tett. of Monday. The Government journal, in contrasting the state of the English funds with those of France, cannot exactly understand, though partly attributing the depression ro the incubus of the loan, why the English Three per Cents. have, within a short period, risen from 93 to 100, while the French Threes are only 82. It may rest assured, however, that there are other causes for this great difference than the anticipation of a loan of only eight millions sterling. The un settled state of Spain, the expenses of the army in Africa, the small increase in the imports and exports ,f the country, and the rather cold manner in which the Great Powers of the Continent regard the present dynasty, cannot fail to have considerable effect on the sredit cf the country. The Journal des Debats, ►tter stating the fact that the Government 'will, in a short time, contract for the loan, makes the following remarks :—" The necessity of proceeding at once to the loan results 'ess from the immediate wants of the Treasury than from the good situation of affairs, the improved con lition of public confidence, and the ascendant ten •lency which the funds of all countries have at present assumed. The French Government is not so short ►f money that it cannot wait still several months, lot withstanding the extent of the undertakings carried ,n at the charge of the Treasury. But the moment s favourable, and it will be an agreeable news to lay )efore Parliament, when it meets according to cus tom between Dec. 25 and 30, that the credit of the .:ountry has undergone with success the trial of a oan. The imminence of a loan renders the French 'unds, and particularly the Threes, much heavier than .hey ought to be. The quotation of the Threes is not in harmony with the amplitude of the resources of :he country and the solidity of her engagements. [he prices of our stocks do not square with our rank imongst other Powers. In the last few years, the English funds have advanced in a remarkable legree. From 92 or 93, the English Threes have ..isen to 100. Our Threes, on the contrary, have declined ; from 86, which they were at in 1840, they have fallen to 80 or 82, and remain there. Let once the loan cease to weigh them down and they will infallibly resume their improvement. According ',:o the comparative quotation of the English funds four or five years back, they ought to be now at 90. En order that they may come near that amount, all that is wanted is that we should be definitively free from loans. From that, two consequences may be drawn—first, that considering the favourable circum itances, the loan ought to be negotiated as quickly as possible; secondly, that the present loan ought to comprise the totality of the sum necessary to the treasury out of the 300 millions, of which the issue is authorised. It is confidently stated that the Govern ment takes this view of the question, and as it ap pears certain that all the wants that have been fore seen may be satisfied with 200 millions, the loan, it is said, will not exceed that amount. Depository of the funds of the communes, the departments, and the public establishments, amongst which are particularly remarked the savings' bank, the Government has by that means an obligatory floating debt which allows ;t to limit the amount of its consolidated loans. The loan being restricted to the maximum of 200 mil ;ions, a sum relatively not very considerable, there -esults an advantage : it is, that the Government in putting the loan up for adjudication, may reckon on s serious competition." Several of the journals complain of the atrocious law laid down by the Spanish Procurator-Fiscal on preferring the indictment against General PRIM. Even the Journal des Debats is compelled to join in he cry, and thus denounces the public prosecutor : We are not aware what may have been the sentence f the court-martial, but at all events the documents .vhich we have before us cannot pass without some re mark from us. We have not to declare our opinion even, though we should have a well-founded one on the part which General Prim may have taken in the con spiracy, which has just so fortunately and so miracu lously failed ; but we cannot help testifying the surprise we feel at the strange doctrine laid down on this occa sion by the Procurator-Fiscal. We had no idea of a jurisprudence according to which simple presumption would suffice in default of proof for the application of .apital punishment. If proofs of culpability are not re quired for the pain of death, we should like to know for what other punishment they could be. The placidity with which the Fiscal of Madrid exposes this theory ap pears to us, we must confess, extraordinary. We have seen many things in Spain, but we hope we shall not see justice rendered there according to such singular rules, and that the judges charged to pronounce on the argu ments of the Fiscal will not be contented with mere pre sumptive evidence, and will insist on having proofs." The Constitutionnel, after expressing great indigna tion at the charge of the Procurator-Fiscal calling on the court-martial to pronounce punishment of death on simple indications of guilt without proof, adds : FLANDERS MAIL. (RECEIVED THIS DAY.) BRUSSELS, Nov. 7.—We were mistaken in stating yesterday, after another journal, that the general census of the population of the kingdom is to be taken towards the end of next month, and that instructions had been given for that purpose. The fact is that a sum of money from the next budget of the Minister of the Interior has been asked for to prepare this important operation, the time for which is not yet fixed. The Russian Government has published in the Northern Bee the account of the produce of the mines in the Ural mountains in the first six months of 1844. The mines of the crown yielded 68 poods 291bs. of gold, and those belonging to private individuals 164 poods 131b5., in all 233 poods 2lbs. (the pood is 401bs. Russian, 361135. English.) Of Platina the mines of private per sons yielded 75 poods 51bs., those of the crown only albs. The Chamber continued to-day the debate on the pro ject of law for increasing the salaries of the judges. The Minister of Finance presented a project of law for the prorogation of the law of the Ist of June, 1842, which authorises the Government to modify the regulations re specting importations for transit direct or transit through the entrepot. The King is expected to return from Ardenne on Saturday. BRUSSF2S, Nov. B.—A general debate on the project of law relative to the inc Lease of the salaries of the judges was closed to day. The increase asked for the First President and the Attorney-General of the Court of Cessation was rejected, as well as that proposed for the Advocates -General in that Court ; this last increase was rejected only by the votes being equally divided, (35 for, 35 against, and one declining to vote). Some provincial journals have given assertion to re ports to the most unfavourable prejudices against the attempt of the Belgian Society's Colony at Santa Thomas. It is to be desired that the facts should be cleared up, and the matter conscientiously investigated by men v‘ orthy of confidence for their knowledge and impartiality. We are assured that the Government has just decided on a regular investigation, in which those persons who have returned from St. Thomas from dis gust and for other reasons shall be examined ; the direc tors and persons employed by the company will likewise be interrrogated. The Frankfort journal says, " Mr. licks of Maintz, well known for an invention, which consists in cultivating all kinds of land without manure, and obtaining from sundry soils a larger produce than the best lands now afford, lately arrived from Belgium. lie affirms that at Brussels he was perfectly well re ceived by the Court, by the Minister, and in general in Belgium by competent judges, and found the greatest readiness to support his plan for a subscription. He in tends to go to England and France, where he hoped to have more effectual support than he has yet met with in Germany." We learn that Mr. Bicks has just set out for Paris with Baron Lapeyrouse, to make a beginning, and enter into some arrangements with the present capitalists. " May the Government of Queen Isabella be wise enough to grant a pardon, if, upon the indications alluded to by the Fiscal, the Court should pronounce a condem nation. 'The Government of Espartero slipped away in the blood of Diego Leon ; the blood of Prim would not perhaps be less fatal to those who should venture to shed it. Since the reign of Ferdinand there has been no Go vernment in Spain capable of granting pardon. Political tribunals have in the same succession as the Governments kept up a civil war, more dreadful than that against which they acted. Merciless political tribunals are fatal to all who have recourse to them. We hope, for the sake of the present Government in Spain, that it will halt in the cruel and perilous course upon which it has entered with the executions at Barcelona. If it cannot be induced to do so by humanity, it should at least listen to the counsels of interest." The registral statistics of Lancashire, as detailed by Mr. Cobden, and stated in our last, indicate that the time is not remote when that county will practically assert at the hustings the principle of unrestricted com merce and free-trade. Twenty-one constituencies out of twenty-five, instead of twelve against thirteen, is a fearful look out for the protectionists ; and it the Coun cil of the League are not greatly mistaken in their figures, it is high time for the monopolists and their Prime Miniater to be on the alert—as there must either be a change of measures or a change of men. Sir Ro bert Peel, though an excellent tactitian, cannot perform impossibilities ; and the Lancashire anti-free-traders must either give way to men who will really represent the interests of their great emporia of trade, or extend the maxims of their narrow policy, so as to suit the in creasing intelligence and the dilating energies of the age. If the perseverance of the League, in opening the eyes of their fellow-countrymen to the evils of a restrictive ' policy, be pregnant with results of this importance when a good trade, and two good harvests, have replenished the national coffers, what will not renewed exertion effect, if a succession of ditninished crops, and a decrease of our India trade, should force the perils and evils of a restrictive policy upon the minds, we had almost said the stomachs, of all classes. 'We feel assured, to use the words of a London Contemporary, that "The great province of trade will no longer swell anti-commercial lobbies, and give the plausible sanction of its approval to anti-commercial measures. The time is at hand when Lancashire will be ashamed of its share in the sliding scale, and Liverpool—aye, Liverpool itself, unless Bir kenhead is destined to be the real Venice of the west — will emancipate itself from the fetters of monopoly, and become alive at length to the magnitude of the blunders which it sanctions.—Carnat von Herd!. The National, in strong terms, denounces the man ner in which the prosecution is conducted; but CHRISTINA'S journal, the Presse, is entirely silent on the subject. The following tragical event is published in Galig nanis Messenger of Friday : " Yesterday evening, about nine o'clock, M. Jacob, the box-maker in the Rue Laffitte, was amusing himself in his shop by threatening his dogs with a whip. As he was at the same time surrounded by his apprentices, a person passing by imagined M. Jacob was ill-treating them, and entering, reproached him with unwarrantable severity. A quarrel ensued, and they went into the street to fight it out, but were separated by the neigh bours. The stranger went away, and M. Jacob entered a wine-shop to talk over the affair with his friends. While there, one of his men came to tell him that his assailant was returned to the shop, vociferating venge ance and brandishing a poignard-knife. M. Jacob im mediately went to get rid of his troublesom e intruder, but, before be could get hold of anything to drive him nut, he was stabbed with a knife in the breast, and dropped down dead. The murderer calmly shut up his t w h e e a d p e o c n e , a s s u e r d r , e a nd nd e r w sc i a t h r r o i u e d t r e to s i s t t h a e n c g e u , a t r o d he friends h o use of of the ho Opera-Com i que." - THE BOURSE--SATURDAY, Nov. 9.

An old maiden lady, named Simpson, residing at Snainton, near Nottingham, has such a penchant for green, that she has painted her bonnet, shoes, house, furniture, fire-irons, and even her lap-dog of that colour, THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVEgING, NOVEMBER 11 184 RILLWAY CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.) (Sittings in Banco.) The Court heard motions in the early part of the morning. These motions were mere motions of cour se , and did not occupy the Court half an hour. The Court afterwards proceeded to take the cases in the new trial paper. BAIL COURT.-(THIS DAY.) Nothing of the least public interest came before the Court this day. The Court rose at an early hour. COMMON PLEAS.-(THIS DAY FISHMONGERS COMPANY V. ROBERTSON AND OTHERS. This was an action upon an argument brought by the Fishmongers Company of London v. the seven defendants, for breach of contract, in respect to the draining of cer tain lands belonging to the Company, and adjoining Lough Foyle, in the North of Ireland. The damages were laid at 1,0001., but the jury found for the de fendants. Last term a conditional rule for a new trial, and to enter the verdict for the . plaintiffs, was obtained upon points reserved. _ _ On Saturday the Court was occupied the greater part of the day in hearing Mr. Sergeant Taifourd, Mr. Ser geant Byles, and Mr. Hindwarsh, who showed cause against the rule. - This day Mr. Sergeant MURPHY followed on the same side, and Mr. Charnock replied at great length in sup • pot t of the rule. Their Lord3hips took time to consider judgment. BANKRUPTCY.-(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Commissioner GOULBURN.) IN RE WILLIAM CHIFNEY. The insolvent, who is so well known to the sporting world as a successful jockey, this day came up for his interim order, but was opposed by an attorney's clerk, on behalf of the detaining creditor, a Mr. Bradshaw. His Hosoux objected that he could not hear any per son saving only counsel, the solicitor in person, or the detaining creditors, and the insolvent was, therefore, allowed to take his interim order. (Before Mr. Commissioner PANE.) IN THE MATTER Or THE REV. MR. NEWLAND. In this case, which has already appeared in The Sun, his HONOUR said, that as he had before observed this was a most lamentable case, and he greatly wished that the parties would settle the matter, by each paying 'salt of the sum of 4731., the damages and costs of the action against the insolvent for trespass. lie trusted that both parties would meet in the spirit of conciliation, as too much angry feeling had been already exhibited on both sides, and he (the Learned Commissioner) should ad journ his decision until Thursday next, but he hoped that in the meantime their measures would be of that character which would render it unnecessary for them to come again before him. IN RE TRH REV.— Npumr , / ,. The insolvent applied for his interim order, and was opposed by a Mr. Buchanan, a solicitor, and creditor. Mr. STURGEON, who appeared for the insolvent, con tended that Mr. Buchanan was not a creditor, inasmuch as his dk-bt had been settled by the Sheriff of Tipperary, under the following circumstances :—Mr. Buchanan had in 1840 commenced an action against the insolvent upon three bills of exchange, for an amount of 1891. 12s. 9d. It went to trial, and the plaintiff recovered for that amount, and 341. 6s. of costs. The defenda n t was after wards taken in execution, but ultimately allowed out of custody. Mr. Buchanan stated similar facts, but added that the defendant had escaped from th e custo d y o f the sher i ff ' s officer ; that a bill of indictment was afterwards pre ferred against him, and he was found guilty of a riot and assault in escaping as he had done. He had been paid the principal of his debt by the sheriff, but considered himself there as trustee for that official. Mr. STURGEON requested to see his authority. Mr. Buchanan produced a copy o f a l etter. His HONOUR'S impression was that Mr. Buchanan's claim was discharged, but he would not deal finally with the case, under the very extraordinary circum stances, until he had taken time It consider. Mr. STURGEON applied for protection to the insolvent, as Mr. Buchanan had introduced a policeman to that Court, who was instructed t t take his client into cus tody as soon as he would have left the premises. The required protection i was granted, and to ques tions from his Honour the insolvent said that he was a clergyman of the Church of England, and had property in Tipperary to the annual rental of 6001., but that there was a mortgage and other claims to the amount of 6,0001. upon it. The further hearing of the case was deferred to the 20th of _December. NSOLVENT COURT--(THIS DAY. IN RE THOMAS BRAND WHITLEY. The insolvent in this matter had been the proprietor of the Black Boy Hotel and Tavern, Sevenoaks, Kent, and the amount of his debts and liabilities was about 2,0001. His petition was opposed by Mr. Cooke, on behalf of Messrs. Lemonheart and Sons, wine.merchants. He was supported by Mr. Woodruffe. He was examined at great length with respect to the disposal of a sum of money of which he became pos sessed by a legacy from his aunt, when he stated that he paid away a large portion of it to Earl Stanhope and others, to whom he was indebted. He paid some of it to the opposing creditors. A quantity of furniture belong. ing to his father had been removed from his (the in solvent's) premises at Sevenoaks previous to an execu tion being put in. Mr. Commissioner PoLLocx ordered the case to stand adjourned to Thursday, the 21st instant, in order that vouchers and other evidence might be produced with respect to the alleged payments, and also concerning the • disposal of the property. IN RE JAMES CLIFFORD. This insolvent's discharge was opposed by Mr. Nicholls, on the ground of having fraudulently made away with a large amount of property, consisting of furniture, horses, carriages, &c. It appeared from the evidence of one of the officers of the Sheriff of Middlesex that, upon going to levy an ex ecution upon the insolvent's premises, in Great Maryle bone, all the rooms were locked, and a large and fero cious dog tied close to the stable door, so as to render it impossible for any one to enter. He was told that all the property was claimed under a bill of sale, executed in favour of the insolvent's brother, and he was threatened with personal violence if he did not immediately leave the house. A proposal was made, on the part of the insolvent, by his brother, who consented to give up a certain portion of the property, to which he was entitled under the bill of sale, for the benefit of the creditors. The COURT consented to lot the case stand over until to-morrow, to try if such an arrangement could be ef fected. During the sitting of the Court this morning petitions of Robert Harris, James Law, William Gamma!' Clark, Henry Richard Wells, Frederick Hopkins, and James Nich.tlson, were heard, and the insolvents ordered to be discharged forthwith. The Queen and Prince Albert, attended by the royal suite, arrived at the Paddington station of the Great 'Western Railway, by a special train, at a quarter before one o'clock this afternoon, and imme diately proceeded, in one of the royal carriages and four, to Buckingham Palace. It is stated that Earl de Grey has purchased the Duke of Devonshire's Burton Moor estate, near Ripon.

(Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR OF ENGLAND.) lIIIXTABLE V. THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. The arguments in this part-heard case, which came before the Court upon demurrer, occupied the Court the whole morning. _ (Before Sir J. WlcriAm.) JUDGMENT—IWO/IEOOR V. TOPHAN. This case was argued at considerable length in the months of June and July last, and his Honour gave judgment in it this day. Mrs. Topham, one of the parties, was the widow, and claimed to be the universal devisee under the will of the late Richard Wrightson, of Kockerten, in the county of Durham, and Mrs. M•Gregor was the sister and heir-at-law of the testator. By order of the Court an issue devisavit vel non had been directed to be tried, relative to the alleged will under which Mrs. Topham claimed. Under this order a trial took place at the last spring assizes at Durham, the hearing of the case lasting three days. The jury found their verdict for the alleged devisee. In June last a motion was made for a new trial, and an application was also made to have the venue of such trial changed. It was on the motion so made that the lengthened argument above mentioned took place, and on it judgment was now given. His HONOUR was of "pinion, that with respect to the change of the venue there was no ground to establish its necessity or expediency. He could not attach any weight to the allegation by which this part of the rno tion was supported, viz , that an important witness in the case (Mr. Newburn) had, from his character and position, a great local influence in the vicinity of which the trial was to take place. As to the other point, the motion for a new trial, the point in dispute was this, whether the docunint purporting to be the will of Richard Wrightson was really his will or not. As to this fact, the evidence of Mr. Newburn, the solicitor who drew up the will, was positive, that it was the testament of Mr. Wrightson, under which Mrs. Topham claimed. The evidence of the two servants, George and Jane Hind, and of the other witnesses on the trial, was not of such a nature as to outweigh that of Mr. Newburn; and lie could not think, therefore, the investigation of truth, or the ends of justice, would be promoted by granting the application for a new trial. His Honour went through the evidence at great length, commenting upon it as he proceeded, and said that, finding Mr. Newburn's eci denee confirmed in every material particular, he must refuse the motion. He would make no order with respect to costs. MARKET NEWS-(THIS DAY.) Notwithstanding the arrivals of country-killed Meg, have been very limited since this day se'nnight, we have to report a heavy general demand, in consequence of the large supplies offering slaughtered in the metropolis. However, the primest Beef and Mutton have, in some few instances, supported previous rates; but other kinds of Meat have declined 2d per Ribs.

The arrivals of Potatoes, owing to the contrary winds, have been very limited during the week, from which the demand here is steady, and some holders have ob tained a trifle more money for good qualities. About 40 tons have come to hand from Rotterdam, and which have sold at 35s per ton.

WOOL ErIARMET. The imports of Wool, since our last, have been un usually small, they having amounted to only 200 bales. Although the supplies offering in the private market are by no means extensive, the demand for all descriptions of Wool is in a very sluggish state, and prices are not supported. TALLOW IVIALRICET. This market is not so much affected as might be ex pected from the sudden and heavy arrivals which have come in within the last three or four weeks ; neither has the delivery for the past week been so large as was anti cipated ; yet the market may, under all circumstances, be considered firm, prices for the spring being 41s 3d-- rather buyers than sellers. Up to the time of our writing, the mail due has not arrived ; but there are upwards of 2,000 casks included in the stock of this day, the advices of which had not reached the parties to whom they are consigned. Town Tallow is 41s 6d nett cash. DEPARTURE OF THE COURT FROM WINDSOR CASTLE.—WINDSOR, SUNDAY EVENING. -H er Majesty and his Royal Highness Prince Albert will take their departure from the Castle for Buckingham Palace to morrow morning, between eleven and twelve o'clock, a special train having been commanded to be in readiness at the Slough station, at noon, to convey the Court to Paddington. The Court will leave Buckingham Palace at an early hour on Tuesday morning far the Euston square terminus of the Birmingham Railway, and thence in the state carriage of the Company, by a special en gine. to the Weedon station. From Weedon, where her Majesty's carriages and horses will be in waiting, the royal cortege will proceed through Northampton and Kettering to Stamford. The route from the Weedon station to Burleigh house will be divided into four stages, for the first three of which relays of her Majes ty's horses have been stationed on the road. The horses of the Marquis of Exeter will convey the Court the last stage on to •Burleigh-house. Her Majesty: and the Prince will, according to the present arrangement, return from Burleigh on Friday next. DALSTON AND KINGSLAND.—A large and influen tial meeting of the inhabitants of the above district was held at the Tyssen Arms, Dalston, on Thursday evening, the 7th instant, for the purpose of taking into considera tion the best means of establishing a Literary and Scientific Institution in the neighbourhood. The room was crowded to excess, and the utmost unanimity pre vailed, one and all agreeing that such an institution would be of great advantage. Resolutions to this effect were passed, and a number of gentlemen added their names to the previously formed Pr,visional Committee. We wish the above project all success. Such institutions do indeed confer advantages on the neighbourhood in which they are established, and society in general but too little appreciates the good they produce, the evil they pre vent. Many and many a thoughtless youth, who would have run riot in dissipation, has, by being brought within the influence of such establi.hments, been saved from degradation—from vice—from infamy. It is an almost imperative duty on all to further the advance ment of such institutions. Fathers should do it for the sake of their children —young men should assist for their own as well as their companions' sakes, and even the magistracy should reflect that" whateier does good debars evil," and hence they too should add their aid and influence. The above institution, we observe (from the circular sent to us), is based on the broadest liberal principles, and we congratulate the projectors that th e y have had the good sense to avoid those sectarian limits which have, unfortunately, in too many instances, ruined the best intentioned schemes. Earl Fitzhardinge arrived at his residence, Ger man Cottage, on Thursday afternoon ; on which day the Noble Earl's foxhounds met, for the first time, at Lit combe. His Lordship's return to Cheltenham for the hunting season, was welcomed by a lung and merry peal from St. Mary's bells. His Lordship, according to esta blished usage, will hunt the Broadway country to-day : — Cheltenham Looker-on, CORN-EXCHANGE —MONDAY. During the past week the arrivals of all descriptions of Grain for our mat het have been on a very moderate soak, but, fur the most part, of fair average quality. Fresh up, coastwise, as well as by land eerriage, and sample, the receipts of Wheat of home produce were by no means large, while the show of samples was far from extensive. There was a fair average number of buyers in attendance, yet the general demand was far from active. However, the best descriptions were mostly dis posed of at prices equal to those obtained on Monday last, but, in some few instances, the out of condition sorts were ss. per quarter lower. Owing to the firmness displayed by the holders, the transactions in fine foreign Wheat were wholly of a retail nature ; but in prices we have no variation to report. The quantities on which duty has been lately paid have been extremely small. So little business was doing in Corn under lock, that the rates must be considered almost nominal. The show of English Barley was small, that of Foreign tole rably good. The best malting parcels supported previous figures, but grinding and distilling sorts were very dull. Although the supply of Malt was small, that article met a slow inquiry, at barely last week's quotations. The Oat trade was comparatively steady, arising chiefly from the short arrivals, and the currencies ob tained on this day se'nnight were supported. For Beans there was a ready sale, at an advance of is per quarter. In Peas a good business was transacted, and the rates improved Is per quarter, at which a good clearance was effected. The Flour trade was, on the whole, heavy, yet the rates were unaltered. There was a large quantity of Linseed offering, and which caused the sale tor it to rule heavy, at barely previous rates. All other kinds of Seeds were a dull sale.

Compared with that exhibited on Monday last, the supply of Beasts offering was rather limited, yet it proved tolerably extensive, the time of the year considered. As has been the case fur many weeks past, the quality of this description of stock was very inferior ; indeed, a large portion of it was less than half fat. The attend ance of both town and country buyers being somewhat numerous, and the dead markets being well cleared of their last week's supplies, the Beef trade here to-day was by far more active than for some lengthened period, and in every instance an advance took place on last week's quotations of quite 2d per Sibs ; the primest Scots rea dily producing 4s per Blbs, and at which a clearance was readily effected. The imports of live stock under the new tariff, during the past week, have consisted, for London and the various outports, of 150 Beasts and 160 Sheep from Germany and holland. To-day we had on sale 25 Beasts and 34 Sheep, in moderato condition. The above arrivals, added to previous importations, form the following totals for the present y ear : Basts 3,550 head Sheep 924 The northern droves of Beasts fresh up comprised about 1,600 short horns. 'Those from Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire were 300 Scots, &c. ; from the western and midland districts 400 Herefords, runts, Devons, &c. ; from other p ar t s o f E ng l and 400 of vari ous breeds ; from Scotland 180 horned and polled Scots; and from It eland 40 Beasts. The supply of Sheep was moderately good, while the Mutton trade was steady, and last week's prices were fully obtained in every instance. Although the numbers of Calves were small, the sale for them was in a v,ry sluggish state, at the late depression in the currencies. In Pigs, the supply of which was good, very little was doing, at our quotations. Per 81be. to sink the ottaL s. d. to s. d. s. d. to s. d.

The " Forget -me-Not" is one of the oldest, as well as the best, of the Annual fraternity, having now been in existence, we believe, semewhere about fifteen years. During this protracted period it has seen dozens of more showy and aspiring rivals rise, decline, And wholly disappear, and has at present scarcely a single competitor in the field. We do not wonder at the steady popularity which this annual has uniformly met with from the day when it was first started, for it is edited with great skill and care by Mr. Shoberl, who thoroughly understands the art of catering to the public taste in these matters. The volume for the present year contains not less than ten plates, some of which are of an average character in point of execu tion, while others display superior excellence. Amonf the better class, we may mention "Aurora's Fan, which represents an arch, coquettish young girl turn' ing her fan to excellent account in the way or flirtation, while a youth stands beside her, evidently much impressed with a sense of her powers of captv vation. This clever plate is engraved by Mote froth an original design by Lange. " Trent" is a sketch of this fine old town, taken on the spot. In the fore ground we see a quaint, old-fashioned bridge spanning a broad sheet of water, while the back-ground is made up of a picturesque range of mills, clothed with trees, and gracefully varied in their outlines. Mary M'Donnell" is a full-length portrait of a b u xore young Scottish lass, who is sitting alone on a n aked crag, at whose feet boils a raging sea, while a shall), clever sheep-dog is keeping a vigilant look-out ahead. This picture is full of spirit and animation. Of tbe, remaining plates, th e b es t are t h ose ent i tled " Miran d a , and the "Cousins," which last is a portrait of two young female relations who are engaged in the most confidential con versa ti on , pro b a bl y on the mer i ts o i , their respectives lovers. The prose and verse cum' munications in the volume are neither better not worse than usual. The article which has pleased ue most by its whim and vivacity, is called " Extracte from the Diary of a Beauty," and is written in MO' tration of "Aurora's Fan." An additional Gazette was published on Saturday, on account of the great number of notices concerning applications to Parliament for railways. Her Majesty and Prince Albert, attended by their suite, will honour Drury-lane Theatre with their presence this evening. FIRE IN THE HACKNEY-ROAD.—Last night, be , . tween eight and nine o'clock, a fire broke out in the pre mises of Mr. Dodson, Oxford-place, Hackney-road. The fire was confined to Mr. Dodson's premises, and before ten o'clock it was entirely extinguished, but not before the premises and contents were completely consumed. The total damage is somewhat considerable, b u t the owner is insured in the Kent and Sun Fire-offices. PROLIFIC BARLEY.—A superior kind of barley. called " Britain's Defiance" was grown last summer by Mr. E. Brigs, of Swinstead, near Bourn, which presents strong claims to attention, and bids fair to supersede ell other kinds in those places where it is introduced. It produced at the rate of eighty bushels per acre, weigh ing 651 b. each; and its mealing and saccharine proper ties are considerably greater than those of any other kind with which it has been tried. A single grain of it sown last spring produced forty-eight ears, each of which con sists of six rows of grain, containing about fourteen grains in a row, making a produce of 4,032 frem a single grain. —From a Correspondent of the Bath Chronicle.
