The truth is, that for more than two yeara, that is to say, since the time that diplomacy has allowed Switzerlard to breathe freely, no country in Europe has :enjoyed more repose. She has remained passive in the centre of revolutions and insurrections. She has violently rejected every attemr t, whether on the part of M. de Lamartine or King Charles Albert, having for object to make her de viate from that neutrality which has lotea guaranteed to her for a common interest. Under the beneficent influence of her new federal institutions, she devotee all her activity to internal ameliorations, such as roads, railways, military institutions, reform of the mo netary system, &c. It is equally true that in Switzerland, thanks to her institutions and to the good sense of the people, Socialism has the fewest vo taries. What does Switzerland demand ? Peace.- nothing but peace; she willingly unites with the desire of the governments to avoid any new insurrection, for it is the surest means of her being rid of the not agreeable charge of emigrants of all colours. Switzerland is more over quite disposed to expel from her territory all those who, abusing the hospitality which they receive, may be a subject ot legitimate uneasiness to the neighbouring states. All suitable observations on this subject will doubtless be favourably received. Switzerland knows the consideration which is due between different states; and she particularly knows what she owes to France, but notes more or less bitter—monaces more or less trans parent frequently fail to produce the effect expected from them.—Paris, Feb. 3." liiti t ~,,, QUTLDIIALL, JaNrART 29, 1850. , T 1 ‘-'uNIMITTEE for L !:T I'l IN CI- the CITY'S ily of 7,4e,41)8 will MEET at GUILDHALL on WEDNESDA , r, , _h . e . l , 3n lor LET.';',Tury next, at One o'clock precisely, to receive f1 , L N11Y . :, 1 3 , _ 'oit, 4 i'NG on LEASES, for twenty-one years Iron .:, 1 3 , 1 , , , 'no Ip, ' 4B e, ITO. ,on the north side of ilro,td,treet( .,. , ltilet4loop Nos. 25 and 29, on the south side of Ilioad,tree ,- 40 , a t for 17 3, y tazt , 0 receive TENDERS for I PTTL Gon LEASES, till e , * k l eas thre e d, ' '''' - ' ~..pla c ays), from Ladyday next, a House, No. 9, ~.r-418. 418. , e, City-road. 1 1144' i n LOTS, Seven Houses Nos. 33, 03 56, OS, 39, GO, end 61, 44 ,:louth side of B annor-squa ' re, riusitury ' ; i1t a ," er.... .1 the south side, and a Rouse, No. 27, on the north . side of Two Houses, Nos. 47 'orlt.m:,u'oot, Finsbury; Nine Houses, Nos. 1 to 9 inclusive, I I kre, o ` V, Banner -street ; and Ei.hteen llousis, Nos. 7to 241 , , 1c a ,b,_hrthetr prth . 4 , iclo of Colenian-;treet, Eanner-strJet aforesa,d. .., - ..aed — . , oulars and plans may be seen, and forms of tend,r .

HAWTHORNS, a desirable FRE;;IIOLD RESIDENCE, with from four to Twelve Aeres of superior Land, between Maidenhead, Henley, and Reading, and about One Mile and a Half from the There were rumours circulated in Paris on Mon day evening, to the effect that a serious emeute had broken out in the Rue Transnonain (which may be considered as classic ground in connexion with enzeutes), and that a serious collision had taken place between the military and the people. On inquiry, however, it proved that the so-called esneute was merely a little ebullition of irritation on the part of the people against the very ill advised proceedings of the Government, who have ordered the destruction of all the trees of liberty planted during the revolution ; the pretence is that that the appearance of such of them as are withered is unseemly, and accordingly an order was issued for the destruction of such of the trees of liberty as are dead. The persons to whom the execution of this order was confided applied to M. CARLIER for direc tions as to how they were to know what trees were dead, and his reply was, " that all trees which were deprived of their leaves were to be considered as dead:' Now, seeing that in the month of February all Lombardy poplars are deprived cf their leaves, this is tantamount to ordering the destruction of all the trees of, liberty a most ill-advised and impolitic measure, and which cannot but be considered as an almost wanton provocation to an outbreak. We are glad to find, however, that the people had :the good sense to refrain from violence. In the Rue Transnonain, in the Faubourg St. Antoine, and even in the Parvis Notre Dame, where the tree of liberty was dedicated to the memory ofthe Martyr Archbishop of ParisPzerrs AFFRE, these trees were cut down without any re sistance being offered by the people, who were as sembled in numbers, and who gave vent to their feelings by the utterance of words of indignant pro test, but dispersed immediately on being summoned to do so by the civic force. The Assembly on Monday passed a Bill taking the sequestration off the property of Lours PHILIPPE and his; family on the 30th of December next, after which slate creditors will be allowed to sue for the recovery of their debts, and authorising the liquida tor of the civil list to raise a loan of 20,000,000 f. fur payment of the debts. The rumours of alleged disturbances said to have taken place in Paris on Monday evening were yester day made the subject of an interpellation addressed at the sitting of the Assembly by M. CHARLES LAGRANGE to the Minister of Justice. Twt ford Station en the Great Western Railway. VESSRS. DANIEL SMITH and SON will SUBMIT to SALE, early in the Spring (if not previously disposed of by Private Contract), in consequence of the decease of the late Proprietor, An excellent, substantial, and commodious FAMILY HOUSE, with convenient offices, good stabling, and various out-buildings, all in complete repair, lawn, pleasure-ground, greenhouse, gardens, orchard, and nearly four acres of rich land, pleasantly situated at Hare-hatch, a favourite part of Berks, within an easy distance of the Thames, and surrounded by a highly respectable neighbourhood, capital roads, and a picturesque country, and within one hour's journey of London. Also two rich meadows, and an orchard about half a mile distant, nearer Wargrave. Full particulars may be had at their offices, in Waterloo-place, Samples to be sent to the Storekeeper at Stratford, and Tenders, marked on the outside " Tenders fur Hay," to be addressed to the undersigned not later than the 28th instant. By order, In this case, which was an action of trover, to recover the value of a race-horse, named Tenby, the plaintiff was Sir Thomas Roberts, Bart., and the defendant was the landlord of the Bull lan, Harpenden, Hertfordshire. Mr. Chambers appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Humfrey for thidefendant. It app: red that tte horse was placed in the de fendant's stables at Harpenden, in May last year, for the purpose of being it ained and put in proper condi tion to run at several races. A groom was sent wits him by the plaintiff, and the charge for both was to be j at the rate of 28s. a week. The horse ran at some races, ) and was entered for c thers, and remained in the defendant's stables until August, the plaintiff's servant grooming him during the whole time himself, and giving orders, when necessary, for him to be shod. At the end of this period an application was male to take him away, but the defendant refused to deliver until the whole of his claim was sitsfied, au!, after some dif ferences between the partie?, the plaintiff at length agreed to pay %all charges, with the ex cels' ion of 103., the amount of a blacksmith's bill, and 51, paid to the clerk of the course previous to the horse running at the Barnet races, for which sums, he alleged, he and not the defendant was responsible. The defendant, however, refased to consent to these terms, and ultimately sold the horse at Cheltenham, at a price much inferor to its value. The case for the plaintiff, it was contended, amounted to a mere question of damages, for, although a formal demand had been made of the animal and the real amount due had been tendered, the defendant neglected to deliver it up. The value of the horse was estimated at 701. or 801. For the defence it was contended that defendant was clearly responsible fir the two disputed sums in the bill as Sir Thomas Roberts was not known either to the black smith or to the clerk of thacourse as the owner of the horse, and consequently that the defendant was entitled to claim them from the plaintiff before he allowed the horse to pass from his possession. The CHIEF BARON, in summing up, said the action was brought to recover damage 3 for the conversion of the horse, the conversion consisting in not delivering it when required to do sc. The defendant pleaded not guilty, which mesut that there was no conversion, but the evi dence went to prove the 'contrary, and therefore, the plaintiff was entitled to a verdict on this issue. The only remaining question was upon tne second plc a of not pos sessed, which alleged in fact that the plaintiff had a lien upon the horse. The jury would, therefore, simply have to consider whether enough had been tendered to allow the plaintiff to take away the horse, or whether the defendant had a right to make the demands which he did previous to the alleged conversion. It had been stated by the blacksmith that ho knew not who the owner was, and that he held the defendant responsible for his charges. The jury retizei, and ae? a short absence returned into court with a verdict for the def?relant. C. P. RONEY, Secretary. Bishops,gate Station, Feb. 5, 1850. ONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN RAILWAY.

The Minister of Justice briefly replied that some slight disturbance had taken place, but that every thing was then tranquil, The slight disturbance alluded to took place in the Place St. Martin where the crowd decorated the tree of liberty with tricolour flags and hooted General LAMORICIERE, who was passing . in his carriage. On the appearance of troops tranquillity was restored without resorting to force, and at eleven o'clock the troops retired. Several arrests have taken place. the evening the tree of liberty on the Place St. Martin was illuminated, The Moniteur publishes a proclamation to the in habitants of Paris, announcing that a certain number of the trees of liberty had been cut down because they impeded the thoroughfares, that the other trees of liberty had been respected, and were to remain standing; but, if they should become an occasion for disturbances, they would be immediately removed. The Government has the highest confidence in the good sense and patriotism of the population of Paris.

Mitchell, 298 A, deposed that last night ho was on duty near the prosecutor's shop, when his attention was drawn to the prisoner by seeing her lurking about the door, close by which stood a pile of goods. Suspecting she intended committing a rubbery, ho watched her for some time, when he saw her enter the shop, pass by the pile of goods a; the door, and took from another pile the piece of stuff produced, and immediately ran out of the shop. Ile followed and caught her in Cranbourn street, where she dropped the muff, and begged him to lit her go, as it was her first offence. Ile then took Lee t) the station-house.

Thompson and Frankish's Circu lar states:—Since our last the weather has continued, in gene ral, mild, as it at present remains. Our arrivals from abroad for the week are again unimportant, notwithstanding which our prices for wheat do not improve, and little business has been doing at last Tuesday's rates for English ; in the absence of transactions in foreign, we do not alter our quotations. Barley., both malting and grinding, sells only in retail. Beans and peas without alteration. Oats, the same as last week. Tares continue scarce, and fully mantain their value. In clover seed the business still remains contracted, but should the present temperature continue, we expect an extensive demand during the ensuing three or four weeks ; the stocks of both red and white are comparatively light for this period of the year, and we think full prices will have to be paid. The mar ket for linseed has been quiet, and a slight reduction has been submitted to for inferior qualities. Of rapeseed we are without arrivals. Linseed cakes move off slowly, and barely support their prices. Rene cakes firm at 82s 6d to Sss per ton. Bones freely taken on arrival at 90s to 92s 6d per ton. Linseed oil may again be bought on easier terms, at 30s to 31s 6d per cwt. Rape oil steady at 42s 6d to 43s per cwt for brown ; refined, 45s to 46s per cwt. At to-day's market we had less wheat offering from the farmers, and little business was done, the millers buying sparingly at last Tuesday's prices ; in foreign nothing doing. Other grain without alteration. LIVERPOOL, FEE. s.—At our market to-day the wheat trade was very languid, at about former prices. Flour of all kinds was dull, and the turn cheaper. Barley, malt, beans, and peas ruled much the same as on Friday. Oats and oat meal sold sparingly, the former barely sustained late prices, and the latter declined fully 3d per load. There was not much business done in Indian corn, and our quotations are abut 6d per quarter lower.

He came—he was seen—he conquered. Since the days of the never-to-be forgotten Power, no performer has appeared on the Bri tish or the American stage who so thoroughly, so faith fully mirrors the Irish character—the Irishman, who adapts himself to all circumstances, and is at fault in none—as does Mr. Hudson. Such a performer was warted to galvanize the corpse of the St. Charles Theatre, and the managers have found in Mr. Hudson the man to do ft. He played last evening in Born to Good Luck and The lrish Lion, and in both he performed the Irishman au natural—ho gave the genuine coin, not the base counterfeit. He was "easy," humorous, fro licsome, and vivacious. Mr. Hudson may not be so scientific a singer as Mr. Collins, but his tones touch the heart—he is an Irish singer. The medley, in which he introduced many of the most popular airs of Moore's melodies, in his Irish Lion, was effectively given.

[ADVERTISEMENT.] — Declaration of a soldier who fought at Waterloo, cured by Holloway's Pills and Ointment— ", 1 publicly state - that Professor Holloway's Pills and Ointment hive cured me of several ulcerous sores, which had their origin in imperfectly healed wounds received in the battle of Waterloo. The pain was of constant duration, and I was con fined to my bed always during the harvest months. I have now for two years been enjoying the best of health, solely in consequence of axing Holloway's Ointment and Pills, which cured me in a very shoat time ; in gratitude for which I p u b. hill this testimony.

The COMMON SERGEANT—Why do you comp and tell me all this after giving the prisoner in custody? Wit neis—Because his first wifi came and kicked up a row. Mr. Alden/18D FAREBROTIIER—And you will go back to the man as soon as he comes out of prison? Wit ness—Sure that I will—(Roars of laughter.) The COMMON SERGEANT—But you have no right to him; he don't belong to you, be belongs to his first wife. The witness shook her head, seeming very much to doubt his Lordship's authority as to her right and title. The COMMON SERGEANT said this r.as one of the cases where the Court might depart from the rule laid down to transport in bigamy cases. There was no evidence that he had ill-used his first wife, and he had treated Miss Wilson well, and there did not seem much money or much beauty gained by the second marriage. He was then *eatenced to six months' imprisonment. John (owing, alias William Brown, 29, servant, pleaded guilty ti several indictments, charging him with having stolen a quantity of plate and watches, valued at between 401. and 501., the property of Henry Perring, George Pitmen, and another Mr — . Cockle appeared for the prisoner. No evidence was offered; but from the questions put by the Court, it appeared that the prisoner, representing himself as being in the service of her Majesty, and em ployed at Windsor Castle, had obtained the property from several tradesmen. It subsequently tune,' out that the prisoner, who had formerly been in the plate department at the Castle, had bee n dismissed. Several witnesses having given him a good character, he was sentenced to twelve months' imprisonment. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION -Ho U SE. Mr. Charles Hammond, of No. 76, Lower Thames street, was summoned before Alderman Humphery, for having sold and delivered to Edward Kendall a certain ticket in a certain lottery called "grand distribution of objects of art and manufacture," against the form of the statute, whereby he became liable to a penalty of 200/. and imprisonment for twelve months, without bail or mainprise. Mr. Bodkin appeared for the V prosecution, and Mr. Iluddlestore for the defence. The justice-room was crowded upon the occasion by gentlemen who were draws together in consequence of the numerous mischiefs arising from the occasional en couragement given to such speculations in this country. Mr. Bodkin, in addressing Alderman Humphrey, said, I appear here in support of the summons which has been just read, by direction of the Secretary of State fir the Home Department, it being the determination of the Government to suppress that which is in re.slity a lottery, and calculated to inflict all the in juries of speculations of the kind, although it purports to be a plan merely for the promotion of the arts and sciences. Representati ons had b een ma d e to t h e Government to the effect that an evil which had been already by law abolished was in danger of being revived and brought into operation under another form, and the police force land been consequently ordered to adopt measures for its effectual removal altogether an d f or ever . In the first instance, Me ssrs. Wolstenholme an d• C o., th e firm employed in London by the proprietors of the fi• reign lottery, had been applied to by an emissary fora ticket, but they stated that they only sold tickets by wholesale, or in large quantiti es; th e y, however, referred the applicant to Mr. Hammond, a Cuetam-house agent, as a person who would accommoda ' e him with a single ticket. Mr. Hammond, upon hearing that the customer was referred to him by Messrs. Wolstenholme, sold him a ticket, upon which .he paid the first instal ment of sr. 6d. Now the ticket was issued, or pretended to be issued in behalf, of the State lottery cf Berlin, and there can be no doubt that such lottery is a li•ttery within the meaning of the 6th Geo. 11., person convicted o f t h e offence o f se lling tickets therein cap. 35, sec . 29, which onsets that any shall forfeit the sum of 200/. for erery such offence, and imprisonment fir twelve months. My friend, Mr. Huddlestone, has intimated to me that the summons has been served upon Mr. Hammond, jun., instead of that gentleman's father, and that therefore I cannot support it. I should, under such circumstances, apply for a new summons, but that,l am instructed to say that the Ge vernment are satisfied that the accused is a man of re srestability, and that he was not aware that In selling the ticket he was acting in violation of the law, and that ho has given up all intention of again transgressing. I therefore beg to stag, upon the part of the Government, that it is not intended to proceed against Mr. Hammond; but it is necessary that the public should be made ac quainted with the fast, that it is their determination, in every future case of the hind, to fellow up the .prosecu tion, the penalties arising from a conviction in which were severe and stringent, and incapable of the slightest mitigation by a magistrate. It is the hope of the Go vernment, I am bcund to add, that this intention on their part . will be, through the press, made universally known throughout the country. Mr. Huddlestone—My Learned Friend is right in &- signaling my client as .a person of respectability. He i s a gentleman carrying on business in a highly respect able connexion, and was concerned in his trade in the shipping of articles reared to in this lottery. Messrs. Wolstenholme were not, it is proper that I should say, at all aware that the sale of tickets of the kind was an illegal act, and the defendant's father was just as ig norant of its illegality, but really considered that by selling tiokets he was contributing to a certain extent in diffusing the advantages of commercial enterprise; and the moment he had learned there was an Act in force against the practice, he gave directions that not one more ticket should be sold. Alderman HUMPHERY—Then I am to understand the d• fondant and his father undertake to stop the sale etigether ? Mr. H u ddlestone—Certainly. Mr. B o dki n —Th e Government adopted a course similar to that upon which I think it necessary to act respecting the sweepstakes which have caused so much speculation and comment, and which have been, if not altogether abandoned, materially diminished. Alderman lIIIMPHEItY—I trust the gentleman to whom this case refers will be thankful for the kindness shown to them by the Crown, and use their best er.- deavours to put a atop to everything of :uch tendency. I more particularly re quest attention to this hi nt , as I Mr. Thomas Hyde, who manages the business in Leicester-square for the prosecutor, identified the pro perty, and stet they had been robbed several times within the last month by girls about the age of the pri soner. The way they managed to effect the robberies betrayed considerable duplicity : for instance, one girl would take a ticket from a pile of goods and come into the shop and divert the attention of the shopmen, while her companion, seeing the coast clear, would seize hold of anything she fancied, and generally got off before the robbery was detected. Committed for trial. OUTRAGEOUS ASSAULT UPON A LICENSED VICTUAL LER.—John Jefferi,s, a stout-built young fAlow, was brought haul.° Mr. Bingham, charged with assaulting Mr. Charles Payne, landlord of the Feathers Tavern, Warren-street, Fitzroy-square. The complainant stated that about six o'clock on the previous evening the pri soner came into his house, and attempted to force his way nit) the parlour; seeing that he was much the worse for liquor, he refused to allow him to enter, and civilly requested him to have the house. He refused, and seizing hold of witness's throat swore he would strangle him. He followed up this threat by striking him with great force about the face and body. Witness called fir assistance, and the barman ran and f.tched in the police, who, after a deal of resistance on the part of the prisoner, succeeded in ejecting him from the house, and conveying him to the station. The prisoner, who pleaded drunkenness in extenua tion of his offence, was committed t, the House of Cor rection for two months, with hard labour. THE HEALTH OF LONDON. (From the Registrar-General's Return.) In the week ending last Saturday the deaths regis tered in the metropolitan districts were 1,094, and ex hibit an increase of 6tl on those of the previous week, and likewise an increase of almost the same amount on the average of the corresponding weeks of the ten pre vious years (1840-9), the mortality of these weeks having ranged from 780 deaths in 1843 to 1,478 in 1348. But if a correction is made for increase of population, the estimated average becomes 1,126, and the deaths now returaed are less than this number by 32. The causes cf death prevailing at th e p resen t ti me are f oun d i n by far the largest proportion in that class of diseases which affect the organs of r es pi ra ti on . I n thi s c lass, of which the most importznt are phthisis (or con sumption), bronchitis, pneumonia (or inflammation of the lungs), and asthma, there are now enu merated the deaths of 384 persons, or more than one-third of all who died in the week ; the cor rected average of ten corresponding weeks is 376. On the other hand, the deaths from the zymotic or epidemic class of diseases were only 168, the corrected average being 216. A girl of 5 years died of " Asiatic cholera," after 14 hours' illness, in Portman-place, near the Edge ware-road; and in Fenchurch-3treet, a boy of 9 months died of " cholera, hooping-cough, teething, and convul sions," after a month's illness. Diarrhcera is the only epedimic which exceeds the average; it was fatal to 11 children and 10 adults; the average of this period is not more than 9; the fatality of measles is of the usual amount; and small-pux, scarlatina, hooping-cough, and typhus continues to show a decrease, which, however, is most considerable as regards the first two of these epidemics. Four children and a man died of small-pox; 13 children of scarlatina. Consumpt on was fatal to 137 persons, about the average; bronchitis and asthma to 159, or more by 52 than the average; and pneumonia . to 75, or 30 less than the a ver a ge .

There is not so much of chance in them as we are apt to imagine. The universe is a system of such per feet order that everything strikes in hs proper place at the right moment. It may be even doubted whether there is such a thing as chance (many people will tell you that they never I - . ad a chance in their lives), and whether the news papers are not hasty iu setting apart a column for Ac cidents and Offences.' We know there are plenty of ofrenceF,' but cannot be quite so sure about the acci dent,: Most events, from the founding of empires to the bursting of steam-boilers, aro inevitable results of an absolute chain of causation.

Disp3tches were recAved e3terday at the Colonial office from the Governor of Gibraltar. G ERMAN Y. It has been officially announced to both Houses of the Prussian Parliament, that the KING will take the oath to the Constitution on the Gth of February ; great preparations were making . for rejoicings in Berlin on the occasion. The frequent interviews which have taken place between M. DE PERSIGNY and the Prussian Ministers have given occasion to the circulation of all sorts of idle rumours in Berlin. It is said that a treaty offen sive and defensive has been entered into between the PRESIDENT of the French It. public and the King of Pnossia, by which the former, when he shall have become Emperor, is to have secured to him the old Imperial frontier of the Rhine, and Prussia is to absorb into her dominions Hsnover and certain por tions of Saxony. It is scarcely necessary to say, that no well-informed person attaches any credit to these rumours. In the second Saxon Chamber M. WIGAND moved, that the Chamber do make the following de claration in reference to the Schleswig-Holstein ques tion : " 1. Considering that the duchies of Schleswig and Holstein are German provinces, and not to be separated from Germany; 2, that the King of Prussia declared, in 1848, they should for ever remain unseparated;' 3, that the sons of Germany had shed their blood for the independence and freedom of the duchies; 4, considering the impres s ion the Germans must conceive that their lives had been played with; 5, that not only the Diet of the Confederation before the days of March, 1848, but the German people with its princes had interfered on behalf of the rights of the duchies—the Chamber should propose to the Ministry to interfere in the most ener getic manner fur the unity and independence of the duchies, and to protest against every basis of a peace that would divide them." The motion was referred, by a majority of 15, to a Committee. Tue Deutsche Zeitung states that the President of the Council in Munich (Herr YON PFORDTEN) when referring lately to the law proposed by the Ministry for restricting the right of association, made use of the following words :—" We have proposed (?) the prohibition concerning association, that we may not see ourselves compelled to break laws that are in force, in order to maintain the order of the state." From this, WALLERSTEIN and his party infer that the Ministers arrogate to themselves the right of break ing existing laws, when any commotion in the state may threaten the overthrow, not of the state, but of the Cabinet. The Chamber has now demanded an unequivocal explanation from PFORDTEN. interpellation of WALLERSTEIN'S also remains unanswered respecting the reason the Government has for retaining the Bavarian army so long on the foot ing of war. He asks whether this has anything to do uith the opposition threatened by Austria and Bavaria to the Erfurt Parliament. ITALY, A letter from Rome of the 24th ult. represents the state of the city under the present system of priestly misrule as lamentable in the extreme, and full of dan ger for the peace of Europe. The Cardinal trium virate has sent into exile a fourth part of the popula tion of the city, and in order to render the Romans obedient to the priestly G3vernment, one-half of the remaining population must be sent into exile before the foreign troops are withdrawn ; the greatest hatred is felt towards the Papal Government, and the Ro mans would welcome any deliverer who would relieve them from priestly thraldom. The POPE can only rule in Rome as the restored of the foreigner, and his presence there will be felt by the Roman people as a badge of national thraldom, a trophy of foreign conquest. In the first place, I must admit that I was in the house fit the time in question, but that I was there for gam bling purposes, or ever visited the said house for such,l do most unqualifiidly deny. The only object cf my visit was to obtain payment from the proprietor of the house is question for wine supplied by me, and fir whose re turn I was waiting at the time the police entered, having been previously informed that if I called any evening the account w:;uld be ptdd, and which circumstances I was prepared to prove before the magistrate, but as the matter of investigation remained undecided upon tech nical objections taken by Mr. Clarkson, who appeared ilr some of the parties, I had no opportunity of vindi cating myself, although I appeared for that purpose with my solicitor. I cannot help obser►ing that it seems most extraordi nary that my address and business should have been so prominently put forth, as no other person's address is giver. I made no secret of my name and address, but others', as you admit, must have given fictitious names. I trust you will give insertion to this letter u the least you can do to efface the impression which your version of the affair must have made upon the public mind in r eference to myself. As to the legality of the proceedings adopted by the police, on behalf of myself I inten.d to submit to another tribunal.—l remain, Sir, your obedient Fervent, MORRICE LEVY. 25, NotfAk•street, Strand, Feb. 5, 1850.
