" this honourable retirement, which the unconquer able love of that gentleman for a domestic life," we quote from the Chronicle, " would have ren dered peculiarly acceptable to him." It was in gratitude then, we suppose, for this complaisance and forbearance • (probably the first instance of the kind to be found in the judicial life of his Lordship) that Mr. O'Connell took the first opportunity of as sailing the Noble and Learned Lord with more than his habitual coarseness of vituperation. All this may be true. Mr. O'Connell may have chosen this par ticular moment to lavish his abuse on Lord Plunket, not, as was supposed, because his Lordship had inter posed an impediment to the appointment of Mr. O'Connell's relative to a desirable situation, but be cause he ,iad removed one. The journals in the in terest of the agitator assert this, and they ought to know best. All tha we can say is, that it is but in the natural or ordinary course of affairs. Mr. Fitzsimon, however, notwithstanding the ill requitted benevolence of Lord Plunket towards him, is not to have the situation after all. And w h y ? Will it be believed ? The Ministerial jour nals, which have been brag ,, ing for several mouths past of the success of the Melbourne-O'Connell fac tion at the registrations in Ireland, who have constantly insisted that nothing was so impossible as that the Conservatives at any election in that country could gain upon them, are reduced to the necessity of confess ing that Mr. Fitzsimon, " with a numerous and in creasing family, and a moderate fortune"—we again .quote the Morning Chronicle—" foregoes a respectable situation, with comparatively light duties and a hand some salitrv—a situation besides which his unconquer able love of domestic life would have rendered peculiarly acceptable to him—lest in present circumstances a Tory might by possibility slip into the representa tion of the metropolitan county." This is excellent. For our part we never believed what the Ministerial journals have been repeating so often about the electioneering prospects in Ireland of the Ministerial faction ; but we own we did not expect to have our scepticism in this matter so soon or so completely jus tified. Mr. Fitzsimon, " that single-minded gentle man," that lover of domestic privacy, that man of pure and patriotic motives, and who, to all his other merits, adds the still higher advantage of being son-in-law of Mr. O'Connell, and joint of his tail, is compelled to make a great and painful personal sacrifice, for no other reason than that he is the present representative of the county of Dublin, and that his successor in the House of Commons will, it is foreseen, be a Conser vative. This is a pretty satisfactory exposure of the misrepresentations as to the state of the constituency of Ireland, by which the Ministerial journals on both sides of St. George's Channel have laboured to de ceive the community.—Morning Post. The Dissenters are preparing with great industry and zeal for a bold fight on the question of Church rates, as soon as the Session of Parliament opens. They are thoroughly provoked at the hesitation and dissimulation of the Government in this matter during the last Session. They will not, however, quarrel with the Administration because they think it might not be easy to obtain another so capable of being forced to yield to their demands ; but they will put that force in action without delay, and if it should not be successful, the Ministry will soon feel the effects both of their disappointment and their resentment. The history of the latter part of the last Session shows that the Dissenters had even then begun to put the screw upon the Ministers, who became frightened accor dingly, and endeavoured, by a shuffle, to appease the wrath which they saw was gathering up against them. In the month of July, Lord John Russell spoke in deed of a measure regarding Church rates for the next Session ; but he described it, with all the em phasis of which he is capable, as a measure for the regulation of Church rates, and, in a fit of injudicious exasperation with the impatience of the leading Dis senters, he plainly intimated that the measure might possibly be far from satisfactory to those who looked for an abolition of these sates. A little time and cool reflection served to show Lord John, that whatever he might have intended, he was not in a condition to speak in any other terms than those of submis sion to the will of the Dissenters. He took an opportunity, therefore, just before the close of the Session, to unsay what he had said, and, after a great deal of palaver to the effect that it was his own ex treme candour and scrupulosity, and not any intention of giving short measure to the Disssenters, which had made him speak as he did on a previous occasion, he con cluded with an assurance of his hope that the measure he would have to propose in the next Session respecting Church rates would he satisfactory to those interested in the subject. This explanation, or recantation, or whatever it should be called, seems to have soothed the particular Member of the House of Commons for whose especial satisfaction 'it was delivered, but nothing can be more evident than the distrust which still reigns among the body of the Dissenters. They are not, to be sure, so un conscious of Lord John's Ministerial mind, as to sup pose that he cares anything about Church rates, except as a matter the settlement of which concerns his tenure of office. They do not fear that through any regard for the national support of edifices dedicated to the national religion, he will be slow to come into their views ; but they do fear that he may find the balance of interests rather in favour of regulation than of abolition, unless they bring all their force to bear with promptness and decision in favour of the latter, and to that they are now directing all their energy. Most heartily do they despise Lord John Russell, and most potently do they believe that whatever they obtain from him must be obtained by putting him in fear of his place ; but from their ability to put him in that fear they no doubt ex pect great things. No man with the slightest preten sions to memory or understanding of what has taken place in Parliament for the last two years, can doubt that the intention of Lord John Russell and the other Ministers has hitherto been to appease the Dissenters on the subject of Church-rates, without an abolition of the national maintenance of the churches. The scheme of Lord Althorp, developed by him to the House of Commons—the subsequent allusions to it by those who were in subordinate situations as his colleagues, and now hold the chief places in the Government--the answers given on more than one occasion to Sir Robert Peel—all show, as clearly as anything can be shown by induction that the present Ministers up to the last month but one of the last Session, intended that a national support of the national edifices of religion should be continued. It is certain, however, that the demand of the Dissen ters is, that there should be no such support of the na tional churches by the people at large, but that they should be supported for the future out of the property which b e longs to the Church ; that is to say, to the aggregate of ecclesiastical persons serving the offices of the Church. How then is Lord John Russell to intro duce a measure satisjiictory to the Dissenters, and consistent with his opinions and declaration s even of the last Session ? It is impossible. lie must either dis appoint the Dissenters, or contradict himself. It will puzzle even such wriggling ingenuity as his, to point out a reasonable foundation for any great change in a mat ter of principle upon this question, since the month of July in the present year; and that he had at that time views of the Church rate question which were not satisfactory to the Dissenters, we can brim forward their own statements to prove. It is impossible (unless the Dissenters relent) that this affair can be settled without great damage to the Ministry, either in votes or in character. That the Dissenters will relent lye believe there is very little probability. In conclusion, we would refer our readers to the article headed " Church Rates," which appears in another column, and in which a mass of evidence will be found, suffi cient to bear us out in the view we have taken of the extraordinary position of his Majesty's Government, in regard to the question that has drawn forth our remarks. —Morning Herald.

'~~ ~ LAW IN TELLIGENC ROLL'S COURT—Nov. 15. COTII/01 V. WEST. This was a bill filed to have an account taken against the defendant as the representative of the testator i❑ the cause, the plaintiff's father. The testator, by his will, dated the 2d of October, 1795, devised his estates to trus tees upon trust to hold the same for William Cotham for his life, with remainder to his issue. The testator died in 1819, leaving a son, the present plaintiff, an infant, who be came entitled under the will. Mr. West, the co-trustee under the will, took upon himself its execution, and conti nued in the receipt of the rents of the estate until 1828, or permitted his son to do so on his behalf. On the death of Mr. West, his son, the present defendant entered into the receipt of the rents. The bill was filed in 1834, and an order was obtained for the payment into Court of the balances alleged to be due to the plaintiff, or that security should be given. The defendant an his answer admitted the receipt a the rents, but at the same time alleged that he had mixed them with his own moneys, that he had not kept any fixed or separate account, and that he had em barked a portion of them in his business of a brewer and spirit dealer. He also admitted that from time to time he had advanced sums of money beyond the capital, for which he received interest, with annual rests. Under these circumstances the bill was filed for an account, and payment of the balances which should be found to be due to the plaintiff, with interest at five per cent. and annual rests. Mr. PEMBERTON for the plaintiff, submitted that if a trustee though proper to deal with trust property in the way in which the defendant had dealt with this—the Court would not sanction such conduct, but make a de cree in the terms prayed, with costs up to the hearing. Mr. TINNEY, on behalf of the defendant, submitted that the account prayed against the defendant was too severe. His Lordship the MASTER of the RoLLs, after com menting on the facts of the case, was of opinion that the defendant should be decreed to account and pay upon the balance found to be in his hands 5 per cent. interest, with annual rests. The defendant must also pay the costs up to the hearing. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Nor. 15. MOTT V. DELANE. Mr. PLATT on a former day stated that this was an action of trespass, tred before Mr. Justice Gaselee, at the last Assizes at Lewes, when it appeared that the plaintiff was the present lessee of the New Steyne Hotel at Brighton, the defendant was the mortgagee of the New Steyne Baths there. The verdict had been in favour of the plaintiff. The hotel and the baths adjoined each other, and stood upon a spot of ground formerly leased out by the owner of the freehold to a person from whom both the plaintiff and defendant derived title. The two buildings were erected close to each other, and were at different periods in the occu pation of one person. While this was the case a passage and two or three doors, forming a communication between the hotel and the baths, were made ; but when the occupation came to be in two different persons 4 the defendant stopped up this passage and the doors, and the plaintiff then claimed the passage as part of the premises granted under the lease which he held. At the trial of the cause the great objec tion was to get the plaintiff to produce his lease, which would have been fatal to his claim ; but Mr. Justice Gase lee permitted him not only to give parole evidence of the mere act of trespass, but also of the way in which the land was used, and the conduct of the parties who had first erected, and of those who had afterwards used, the build ing. It was 'quite clear that, in a case of this kind, evi dence of this sort was not admissible, and the Learned Counsel, therefore, applied for a rule to set aside the ver dict given to the plaintiff. The Court took time to speak to Mr. Justice Gaselee, and this morning intimated that there ought to be a rule.— Rule granted. THE RING V. BURN. Mr. ALEXANDER appeared on behalf of General Whar ton, a General in the army, Deputy-Lieutenant of the county of York, and Justice of the Peace for the East Riding of that county, to move for a rule to show cause why a criminal information should not be filed against one Thomas Burn. On the 1 ith of last October Burn came before General Wharton, who was sitting in his character of Justice of the Peace and Commissioner for hearing and deciding in cases of wages and small debts, to answer a complaint made by one Smallwood, who claimed from Burn payment of a small sum of money. The General, hav ing beard the complaint, made a❑ order in favour of Small wood, directing Burn to pay him the money claimed. Burn then made a similar claim against Smallwood, but General Wharton declined to decide on it at that moment, but gave time to the parties to produce their evidence, in forming them at that moment that for what had then been done no charge of costs should be made, if the money de cided to be paid was paid without further trouble ; but that if he (General Wharton) was put to the trouble of reduc ing his order to writing the ordinary costs must be paid. Burn asked who was to pay them ? " You, to be sure," said the General. On which Burn exclaimed, " I will not be robbed." General Wharton asked him to whom he ap plied that observation ; to which Burn replied, " To you and your colleagues." The General desired those present to remember what had been said, on which Burn became very abusive, and continued so while the General was com mitting the proceedings to paper. The Learned Counsel submitted that, under these circumstances, he was entitled to the rule ; a Magistrate in the exercise of his duty must be protected from insult.—Rule granted. SECONDARIES' OFFICE, Nor. 15. FALSE IMPRISONMENT.-PAGE V. DEAN. This was a writ of inquiry before Mr. JAMES, the Se condary, for the assessment of damages in a case of false imprisonment, the defendant having allowed judgment to go by default. Mr. C. PHILLIPS said—The plaintiff is an engraver, whose son, being in the same business, had been employed to engrave some heads for the defendant, who was a part ner in the respectable firm of Mundy, Dean, and Co., printers. The heads were engraved, but in consequence of some previous dealing which led the young man to suppose that it would be advisable in him to get his money for the job on delivery, he refused to had over the plates without the two guineas which he had been promised upon perfect ing the work. The plaintiff was present at the time of his son's refusal to give up the plates, and the consequence was that father and son were taken into custody by the desire of the defendant, and after having been detained an hour and a half at the Mansion House on the charge of having feloniously detained the property, were discharged when the case was represented to the Lord Mayor. The defendant had been cautioned by the plaintiff as to the un warrantable course pursued by him, but he thought proper to persevere, and the plaintiff was obliged, after having been exhibited to the public gaze as a felon, to seek recompense for the injury. The facts were proved. Mr. C. JONES made a speech in mitigation of damages, which were assessed at 101. PREROGATIVE COURT, Nor. 15. HANDIAY AND JONES V. EDWARDS. This was a cause respecting the validity of the will of Mr. John Edwards, formerly of Stank-hill, and late of Leamington Priors, in the county of Warwick, who died on the sth of October, 1835. The bill is opposed by Mr. William Edwards, the nephew of the deceased, on the grounds that fraud and conspiracy had been employed by , Mrs. Hannah Edwards, the widow of the deceased, in pro curing the said will, at a time when the alleged testator was in a state of complete mental imbecility. A responsive allegation was to-day offered on behalf of Messrs. Handley and Jones, the parties promoting this suit. Dr. Lushing ton, on behalf of Mrs. Edwards, opposed the allegation. The King's Advocate appeared for Messrs. Handley and Jones, and supported its admissibility. Sir HERBERT JENNER went through the circumstances of the case, and concluded by sending back the allegations to counsel, to be generally reformed. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Nov. 15. THE KING V. WILLIAM LYONS. Mr. C. PHILLIPS, for, the prosecution, observed that it was instituted by the directors of the St. Katharine Dock Company. The immediate charge was one of assault ; but at the same time it involved matters of great importance to all trading on the river Thames. The person assaulted was James Clear, foreman of the Dock-gate men of the Dock ; and the defendant was a lighterman, in the employ ment of a Mr. Turpin, of Lambeth. The lower class of these lighterm en had a strong antipathy to the St. Katha rine Docks, and used every species of annoyance, particu larly in obstructing the entrance to them from the river. To prevent these obstructions it was necessary that the dock-master should be armed with considerable authority. Property to an immense amount was at stake. Upwards of 8,000 craft, besides 800 ships, many with most valuable carg oes , were locked in the S t . K at h ar i ne D oc k s d ur i i4 the last year. Under such circumstances the company felt it their duty to assist in the present prosecution. The Learned Gentleman next proceeded to detail the parti culars of the assault. Mr. PAYNE, for the defendant, called two witnesses, lightermen, named Clark and Atkins, who deposed to the struggle between the prosecutor and the defendant ; but it turned out, from the admission of one of them, that he him self was aiding in the obstruction. Mr. C. PHILLIPS replied, and the jury found the prisoner Guilty. • The CHAIRMAN, having consulted with the Bench, pro ceeded to pass sentence in the following terms :—" Prisoner at the bar, you have been found guilty of an atrocious as sault upon the prosecutor, who was properly obeying the the orders of the Dock Master. It is absolutely necessary THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDA V, NOVEMBER 16, 1836. to the safety of ships and barges entering and leaving the docks that the Dock Master should have sole controull The sentence of the Court is, that you be imprisoned in the House of Correction for six calendar months, and pay a fine of 101., with liberty to speak to the prosecutor. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. The president of a benefit society, held in Aldgate, called the " Brothers of Humanity," was summoned before the LORD MAYOR for having refused to pay over to a member the sum of 10/., the funeral enpanses of the complainant's wife. The complainant had paid 2s. 4d. a month for twelve years to the society, and was, by the rules, entitled to all the privileges. His wife having unfortunately died, he applied for her funeral expenses, but was refused, upon the ground that when he entered the society he falsely repre sented that he was a married man. Now it was true he was not married to his wife upon becoming a member, but then he had lived with her for twenty years, and had been frequently called in church with her, and the only reason they had not been joined together in matrimony until lately, was that there was some dispute between him and her friends. The defendant said that the society would not have he sitated a moment about the claim if the claimant had not only deceived them by stating, upon becoming a member, that he was a married man, but by endeavouring to foist upon the officers a forged certificate of marriage. The fact was the ceremony took place only eleven weeks ago. The LORD MAYOR (to the claimant)—ls it true that you have lived 20 years as the husband of this woman ? Claimant—lt is, my Lord, and I never lived with any wo man but herself. Here is the certificate of our marriage. He here produced a marriage certificate, which was dated August, 1836, and submitted, that to deprive him of his claim, when he always acted towards his wife and consi dered himself as her husband, would be an act of cruelty and injustice. The LORD MAYOR—But it was unnecessary for you to tell lies about the business. The society seems to be very fairly disposed towards claimants, and the officers say that you tried to impose upon them by a false certificate. Claimant—l did not. It was a mistake of theirs. Defendant—Let him produce the certificate which he exhibited before us. The erasure is quite palpable. The certificate he now produces is a correct one, which has been just obtained. Claimant—l can't produce it, for it was rubbed to pieces in my pocket. Mr. Hobler—lt is very well for you that the forged certificate was net impounded. I can tell you that if it had you might have been sent to Botany Bay for the forgery. Defendant—We were the more strongly induced to resist this claim, my Lord, because we found that the claimant had married the woman in order to get the 101. for her fu neral expenses.—(A. laugh.) The LORD MAYOR—Do you mean that he contemplated her speedy death ? Defendant—Not a doubt of it. The circumstance is an extraordinary one. On the day he married her she was in a dying state, and he, apprehensive of her immediate decease, insisted upon her going to Church, pretending at the same time to the neighbours that he was taking her to an hospital. She was carried from the coach into the church, in the yard of which her earthly remains were so soon to be deposited, and the Cler gyman was shocked at the apparition, and reprehended the man who could think of conveying a woman in such an ex tremity to the church from her sick bed. Mr. Hobler—lt would appear that the clergyman thought the case was rather unwarrantable, for he has charged, as I perceive by the papers, a sovereign for performing the cere mony.—(A laugh.) Defendant—He certainly censured the claimant most sharply. The man, however, very coolly took back the poor woman to her bed, from which she never afterwards rose, and in answer to the questions of the neighbours, he said that his wife was refused admission to the hospital.— (Laughter.) The LORD MAYOR said the case was certainly one of a very singular kind, and asked the claimant whether he had any observation to make on the allegations against him ? The Claimant replied that it was true his wife was very ill when he was married ; but he married her because his conscience told him that the ceremony ought to take place as soon as possible, and he would refer to all her friends and relations whether he had not uniformly acted as her husband. The LORD MAYOR said that he was of opinion that the society should pay part of the expenses of the funeral, but not the whole. The President most willingly consented, upon the part of the society, to pay a moiety of the money demanded, and asked whether they were obliged to keep such a per son on their books. His LORDSHIP replied that there was no ground for re moving him. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. A tall, thin, march-of-intellect-looking young man, an swering to the name of Thorpe, took his place at the bar, charged with drunkenness. The policeman saw the de fendant holding fast by some railing, delivering with great emphasis 'a long oration on sundry subjects, and finding that he was incapable of walking through drink he took him to the station-house. Mr. CONANT—WeII, what have you to say ? Defend ant (answering in an oratorical attitude)—Gentlemen, deeply impressed as I am with the degrading situation in which I now stand, it is with reluctance I am now com pelled to confess that I cannot adequately convey my senti ments on the subject of the offence with which I am justly accused. Infirmity is the lot of humanity, and as no man is perfect in his nature, so I, in an unguarded moment, and tempted by the goodness of the half-and•half, deviated from the path of prudence, and in consequence am obliged to be come a candidate for your lenity. Mr. CONANT—Pay five shillings for being drunk. Defendant—Five shillings ! Oh, think, I beseech you, ere you let your decision go forth. I have not five pence in the whole world, and am without a single friend in all Mid dlesex whom I can appeal to in this direful emergency. Let me, then, implore you to compassionate my case, and taste the sweets when you press your pillow this night of having on this occasion tempered justice with mercy. The oratory of the defendant having failed to mollify the Magistrate, he was removed to the lock-up house. MAR YLEB ONE. Yesterday afternoon, just as the Sitting Magistrates, Messrs. HOSKINS and Rawuresore, were about to quit the Bench, a considerable degree of commotion was caused in High-street, in consequence of a hackney cab and a gen tleman's gig, followed by a great crowd of persons, being driven up to the principal office door, the former vehicle (the horse attached to which was led by a police constable) containing a fine, tall, military looking man, apparently not more than twenty-five years of age, and an elegantly dressed young lady by his side. The names of the parties were— Frederick Walker, a gentleman, from Dublin, and Miss Mary Anne M'Culloch, who resides with her stepmother, Mrs. Elizabeth M'Culloch, at No. 8, Upper Baker-street, Portman-square, and is granddaughter of the late General M'Culloch. In the gig were Captain Mills, of No. 5, York-place, Regent's Park, together with the sister of the young lady above named, and a Mrs. Lightfoot, at whose house the Misses M'Culloch, as also their mother, dwell. The charge against Mr. Walker (who is the brother of a Barrister in Dublin) was that of having endeavoured to carry off, against her free will and consent, Miss Mary Ann M'Culloch, a ward in Chancery, and who, on attaining her majority, will be entitled to a considerable portion of pro perty. On alighting from the cab she seemed very faint and weak, and was supported into the office by Inspector Aggs, of the S division of police, and who, by direction of the Magistrates, handed her to a chair by the fire, where she sat for a few minutes, when it was deemed advisable, from the tremor and scarcely conscious state that she was in, to remove her to the Magistrates' private room, whither she was accompanied by her sister and Mrs. Lightfoot, and in a short period the inspector was instructed to see all three of the ladies safely home. The statement, as given by Aggs, was as follows : At about two o'clock this afternoon, as I was passing through the Regent's Park, between St. Andrew's-place and the Colosseum, I saw a great crowd of persons collected around some vehicles. There seemed to be much noise and bustle going on, and I therefore immediately ran to the spot to see what was the matter. I beheld standing there a hackney cab, containing the defendant and a young lady, the latter evidently in a fainting condition. Mrs. Lightfoot had also jumped into the vehicle, and appeared much excited. On making inquiry as to the nature of the affair I ascertained that Mrs. Lightfoot had just left home with the Misses M•Cull oc h, i n order to go to the Colosseum, when Mr. Walker, who met them, suddenly alighted from the cab, and, snatching up Miss Mary Anne M'Culloch in his arms, contrived, with the assistance of some other persons, to lift her into the vehi c le, and place her on the seat. hen I went up there was a great outcry among the crowd, some of whom said, " Take him away ; take him off to the station house ;" to which he replied, " What do you mean ? she is my wife, and I've documents that will satisfactorily prove it." Mrs. Lightfoot told him that it was no such thing ; that she was a ward in Chancery, and he was taking her off for the sake of her money. He was desirous of driving away with the young lady, but I directed a constable, who came up at the time, to lay hold of the horse's head, which, he did, and we then all came to the office. Captain Mills, No. 5, York-place—l was driving through the Park in my gig, in company with a friend, and on ar riving at St. Andrew's-place I saw the defendant, after looking cautiously round about, alight from a cab. I at that moment saw several ill-looking fellows all of a heap together, and one of them made certain signs with his hand. At this period I was some little distance a-head, but I and my friend distinctly perceived a gentleman with a lady in his arms, and who was lifted from the ground by him and others into the vehicle. I drove up and found the defendant therein, as also the young lady, who was as pale as ashes, and quite incapable of offering the slightest resistance ; in fact, she seemed completely unconscious of all that was going on. I seized the cab horse, and held it until proper assistance arrived. On my first interfering defendant said " She is my wife." I told him I knew not how far that might be true or false, but at all events, he appeared to be acting in a very strange and suspicious sort of way, and that he had better go before a Magistrate. Mrs. Elizabeth M'Culloch—l am a widow, and reside at 8, Upper Baker-street. The young lady's name is Mary Ann M'Culloch, and she is my late husband's daughter by a former wife. Her age is nineteen, and she is a ward in Chancery. She will be entitled to considerable property on her coming of age. Mr. ItAwLINsoN—Do you know the defendant ? Wit ness—l do. Mr. RAwtiNsos—He says he's married to the lady. Do you know that to be the case or not ? Witness--I do not believe that hn is. Mr. RAWLINSON—You know, of course, as to whether she has had the consent of the Court to a marriage. Wit ness—She has had nothing of the sort, Sir. _ _ Mr. RAWLINSON—Then, if they are married, it has been done in a clandestine manner? Witness—Most certainly. Mr. RAWLINSON (to defendant)—Now, Sir, what is your answer to this ? A solicitor, on the part of the defendant, here suggested the propriety of calling upon the young lady, in order that he might have an opportunity of questioning her on va rious points. Mr. RAWLINSON said that at present she was quite unfit to be brought up, and that he could not see the necessity for the adoption of such a course. Solicitor—l assure you, Sir, it is a perfectly legal mar riage, and therefore— Mr. RAWLINSON—That I cannot determine upon, nei ther is it any part of my duty, under all the circumstances (the lady having been swore to be a ward in Chancery), to attempt to do so. It is quite clear that she has been treated with much violence by the defendant, and I shall call upon him to find bail for his peaceable behaviour, par ticularly towards Miss Mary Ann M'Culloch, for the next six months, himself in 2001., and two sureties in 1001. each. Defendant—The lady is no ward in Chancery, and that is a fact which I have clearly ascertained. Our marriage has been properly solemnized according to the rules of my country (Ireland), and I consider myself entitled to posses sion of my wife. Mr. RAWLINSON—You must find bail. It should have been stated that Mrs. M'Culloch, in re ply to the Magistrate, at an early period of the investiga tion, said that the young ladies, accompanied by her, were a short time staying in Ireland, when they became acquainted with the defendaat through his brother, a barrister. After some further conversation the defendant was libe rated on his own recognizance in the sum of 1001. The parties then left the office by the magistrates' private door. DEATH OF LORD FORBES, M.P. We regret to announce the death of Lord Viscount Forbes, eldest son of the Earl of Granard. His Lordship was Lord Lieutenant and M.P. for the county of Long ford, which he represented since 1806 with a slight inter ruption, when Messrs. Halpin and Roarke sat for the county, but were turned out on petition. He was also Custos Rotulorum and Colonel of the Militia. He was in his 52d year, having been born in May, 1785. He married about five years ago, Frances, daughter of the late Dr. Territ, formerly Judge of the Admiralty Court at Ber muda, by whom he has left two sons, the eldest of whom, George Arthur, now Viscount Forbes, is in his fourth year. He died at Noel House, Kensington Gore, the re sidence of his aunt, the Dowager Marchioness of Hastings. The late Lord Forbes, our readers will remember, was found insane by an inquisition, a few months since, the determining cause of which unhappy visitation of Providence was an unfortunate accident that befel him about fifteen months ago, when the Noble Lord had apo plectic attack, which eventuated in aberration of in tellect. From the first attack to the moment of his death he was assiduously attended night and day by his discon solate widow, on whom the fing er of God has been heavily laid within the last few weeks, her father having died in that time. The death of the Noble Lord creates an immediate vacancy in the representation of Longford, and in its Lieu tenancy'and Colonelcy of Militia. Those who knew the deceased speak highly of his many excellent qualities. He was an early and intimate friend of the poet Moore, who addressed to him one of his American epistles, from which we take the following passage, to show the friendship sub sisting between them, and the rare and high estimate formed of his character by one who knew him well, and whose praise is beyond all imputation of motive : " Thou, gently lulled in dreams of classic thought, By bards illumined and by sages taught, Pant'st to be all upon this mortal scene That bard hath fancied or that sage hath been Why should I wake thee ? why severely c h ase The lovely forms of virtue and of grace That dwell before thee like the pictures spread By Spartan matrons round the genial bed, Moulding thy fancy, and, with gradual art, Brightening the young conceptions of thy heart ?" On his remains having been examined, it was found water had lodged itself on the brain, and that the brain was also much discoloured, caused by the fall which his Lordship met with, w hen seized with a fit of apoplexy, at Leicester. The Noble Lord died on Sunday, and it is intended to re move his mortal remains for interment in the family vault in the county of which this regretted Nobleman was to long the Representative. His Lordship was a Major- General in the army. He entered the service June 21st, 1794, as a Lieutenant in the 108th Foot, and was appointed one of the Aides-de-Camp to George 111. in February, 1811.

The following notice has been received at Lloyd's from their agents at Rostock : « NOTICE TO IVA aittlis.—lt is hereby made known : Ist. That a fire beacon has been erected at Wamamundee, to the westward of the mouth of the harbour, which will be lighted this year for the first time on the Ist of December ; but, sub sequently, it will burn from the Ist of August to the 30th of April, from sunset to su n rise. It consists of a sideral light, which will, in clear weather, be visible from a ship's deck at the distance of two German miles, and throws its reflection from W. N. W. through N. E. N. E. 1-2 F., so that ships steer ing towards the coast must not approach nearer the shore if they loose sight of the light. 2dly. That close to the beacon a pole has been put up, to which balls will be attached, to show the depth of water at the mouth of the harbour to ships that are making for it in such a manner that a large ball, painted white and black, will denote a depth of water of eleven feet Swedish measure ; and every small black ball above and below the white and black ball will show half-foot depth of water, more or less. idly. That if a streamer is attachet, to the pole it will denote to the ships coming in that the current is setting inwards ; and if the said streamer is not up that the current is running out. 4thly. That in case the pilots cannot go out in stormy weather on account of the breakers it will be signalised by a flag to be drawn up at the side of the balls and the course which ships making for the harbour will have to take will be pointed out to them from the dyke by the raising or lowering of a small flag on one side or the other."
