*itnees's house, Kemp opened the door ; he saw no ap- Pearance of a supper in the room. Mr. Justice PARKE having summed up the evidence, The Jury found the prisoner Sutton guilty of cutting and maiming, with intent to do some grievous bodily h arm; and Kemp and Jones (whom they recommended to Mercy) guilty of aiding and assisting:; and acquitted the female prisoner. NEW COURT. A young woman named Mary Adams was indicted for stealing sheets, blankets, and other bed furniture,. the Peoperty of a female named Snell, residing at Wentworth street, orti street, Whitecharsel. It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner, an un fortunate girl, took lodgings of the prosecutrix ; that Vrtly after she went there she committed the robbery Knd then decamped, returning, however, in a few days, stating that she had committed the robbery, and hoped she Would be sent out of this country, as she was tired of her • ifs here- The Jury found the prisoner Guilty, but recommended he to mercy. The COMMON SERJ EANT said, however much he wished to attend to the recommendation of the Jury, he thought he should best consult the interests of the prisoner and the Public by letting the law take its course. Sarah Burns, a rather interesting woman, was indicted for stealing on the ISth of August a salt cellar and carpet, the propertyof a married lemale named Robertson, residing in Great St. Andrew's-street, Seven dials. It appeared that the prisoner, who was a slight acquaintance of the prosecutrix, ou the day charged in the indictment called and said she was very ill, and requested to sit down up stairs. She stopped all the day, and the next morning prosecutrix Missed the property in question. The case was cleatly proved against the prisoner, and the Jury found her Guilty. Several persons gave the prisoner an excellent character, and her sister stated that this was her first offence, and so much had her mother taken it to heart, that she was ex pected hourly to expire. The COMMON SERJEANT sentenced the prisoner to ten days' imprisonment. Margaret Crosby, a decent-looking young woman, Was indicted far stealing, on the 25th of September, from th e house of Mrs. Warboys, in Albermarle-street, Clerken- Well, several articles of wearing apparel. Mrs. Warboys stated that the prisoner lodged at her house for a week or two ; that missing the property in question on the 25th of September, she gave the prisoner into custody. A person named Mott, a pawnbroker, proved that the prisoner pledged the property with him. The COMMON SERJ EANT was proceeding to sum up, when A Juror inquired if the prisoner was married ? Mrs. Warbays answered in the affirmative. The COMMON SERI EANT asked where her husband Was at the present time. Mrs. Warboys said he was lodging in her house. The COMMON SERJEANT—What ! living is your house, and you charge his wife with felony ! There is something, I am afraid, behind the scenes here. Mrs. Warboys said that the husband had taken her apartments some time before he informed her he was mar ried. He then gave her information of the fact, and asked her if she had any objection to his bringing his wife there. Witness said she had not ; and a few weeks after she came the robbery was committed. Witness wished to recommend the prisoner to mercy, as she had borne a good character previous to her marriage, and had lived as ser vant to the Duke of Leeds and the Duchess of Manchester. A Juror inquired if the prosecutrix's husband lived with her. Mrs. Warhoys answered in the affirmative. The COMMON SERJEANT thought the case an ex. tremely singular one, and, in summing up, observed, that if the robLery had taken place in the presence of the hus band, it was his act, and not that of the prisoner at the bar. The Jury concurred with the Learned Judge in th s ingularity of the case, and found the prisoner Not Guilty. Giles Lorine, an elderly respectable-looking man, wa_ indicted with embezzling several sums of money, the pro petty of his master, Mr. Samuel Preston Child, a manu facturer of a chemical prep iration used in dying. The prisoner said he wished to retract his former plea of not guilty, and to plead guilty. The COMMON SERJEANT requested Mr. Child to go into the bo x , as he had recommended the prisoner to mercy, and state his grounds for doing so. Mr. Child stated his reason s for recommending him to mercy were on account of hi, large family. The COMMON SERJEANT inquired what wages he re ceived. Mr. Child said 291. a week, a house free, and coal found him. Mr. PHILLIPS, who appeared for the prisoner, stated that the prisoner had five children. Several gentlemen, among whom was Mr. Leman, a merchant, in Spital-square, gave the prisoner a most ex cellent character, stating that he had previously been in a large way of business, but he met with severe losses. The CoasaroN SERJEA NT sentenced the prisoner to three months' imprisonment in Newgate. THE FUNDS. - 7 -(THIS DAY. CITY, TTVELVE O'CL OCK. Up to this hour we have no direct communication from Portugal ; but by the French mail this morning we have accounts from Lisbon to the 4th October, with the official bulletin of the late attack upon Oporto, by Do n Miguel's Geueral:— " I have the honour to c•tromunicat e to your Excellency that according to the orders of his Majesty, I tnade yester day(the 29th) a reconnoissance on Oporto, in force. A co lumn advanced on the left, another on the right, anti the third, mote numerous, on the centre, at the same time keepin g a reserve ; but our troops, after having showed the greatest courage, were obliged to retreat anti take up their first position, owing to the strong force of the lilies of the enemy, which were composed of two divisions of batteries, with entrenchments behind t hem ; the left column took a battery frotn the rebels, the c annon o f w hi c h we s pik e d, an d got i nto th e entrenc h ments, w i t h t h ree p i eces o f cannon tiring on the camp ; but being charged by the rebels, and Captain Travassos, who commanded, being killed, we w ere .bliged to ab an d on th e groun d we prev i ous l y ga i ne d. The reconnoissance commenced at 7 o'clock in the morn ing, and did not terminate until 5 o'clock in the afternoon, and we retreated in good order as soon as possible. I shall send a detailed account of all the events, as well as our losses. " Head -quarters, D'Agos Sautes, Sept. SO." Don Miguel, wishing to take revenge, has ordered rein forcements to the besieging army. The Lisbon Gazette of the 3d October gives the fol lowing report I have the honour to transmit to your Excellency the report of the Commandant of Villa de Conde, from which it appears that an English ship coming from Angras was wrecked near Villa Conde. She had on bgard 1,200 muskets for the rebels, with other warlike stores, to the Count Barbacena. " Head-quarters, D'Agos Sintas." Some of our city speculators in the Funds for some days past put great confidence in respect to the journey of Count Durnhoff, the Prussian Envoy to the Hague, no doubt thinking that he would be able to bend his Dutch Majesty to some sort of com pliance on the Belgian question. At length, and Nneapectedly, this great negotiator, we are informed, has arrived in London; but to the great astonishment of the speculators, after being three days at the Hague, has returned without any definitive answer from the King of Holland, who, it appear., will again take his time, an , ' consider on the proposals of Count Durnhoff. Thus, it seems, we shall be continually amused by' procrastina as all the accounts from Holland are still of the same ende ncYa—that, the Kin g o f H o ll an d an d hi s people re rn!.iri deter m i ne d.

A recent elopement is the gossip of the day ; the accomplished lady is the daughter of a former Repre sentative in Parliament fur Arundel, and the gay inaino tato a neighbouring elodpole.—Bright on Heruld, ~~ , DUDLEY, OCT. 20. TO THE EDITOR OF THE S UN.. SIR,-Yesterday afternoon Mr. Packington, a Tory candidate for the eastern division of the county, made his public entry into this town, attended by above one hundred horsemen, consisting of Magistrates and yeo• manry cavalry, not in uniform. At Stourbridge, in their way hither, the Stourbridge Magistrates, as it can be proved, ordered the horsemen to gallop over the people, who had assembled in great numbers. Opposite the hotel at Dudley, which is the head. quarters of the Tory faction, the Liberals placed two waggons, in which they might have an opportunity of in terrogating the candidate and addressing the populace. These waggons were filled with people, but no sooner had the cavalcade reached the hotel, with the Magistrates at their head, than they made ;:n aFsault, having prepared horses to draw the waggons away ! Resistance necessarily followed, and a scene ensued of which the result would have been more disastrous than the Manchester massacre, had these infuriated horsemen been armed. They charged the unoffending people with the ferocity of savages, beat ing them most unmercifully with sticks, and trampling them down, even upon the footways, in all directions. They drove off the waggons with the utmost difficulty, and to the imminent d anger of the lives of hundreds. The waggons were rescued and brought back, and the battle was continued with increased fury. All this time the Magistrates continued indffirent spectators ; and al though one of the cavalcade, an official person, who did not lift up his arm against the people, and who has ex pressed himself ashamed of the conduct of his party, went to a Magistrate and told him, that if he would re strain the horsemen he would insure instant tranquillity; yet this Magistrate would do nothing to prevent the mis chief, which on all sides was terrific. I was at a house as an impartial witness, and finding that the Justices of the Peace did not do their duty, and dreading the most awful consequences, I went myself to the barracks to implore the aid of the military; but not an officer was to be found, though the men told the their pieces were loaded ready for action. In the evening several gentlemen of the town and my self attended, with a highly respectable solicitor, at the hotel, where the Magistrates were sitting, to give bail for two lads who had been taken into custody; but the Ma gistrates would make no answer to our application, and we were all, by brute force, ejected, by the party with whom the Magistrates are identified, out of the hotel, and my son was most severely beaten with a heavy stick, by a certain scoundrel who is called a gentleman. This affair, Sir, demands au immediate and strict in vestigation ; for to carry it before the Magistrates would be altogether fruitless ; and to prevent the people from taking the law into their own hands, I trust Ministers will see the necessity of immediate interference. If the peace of this part of the country is to be preserved, we must have very different Magistrates from what we have at pre sent. A meeting of the inhabitants will take place on Tuesday, relative to this business, and the result will doubtless be communicated to you. I am, Sir, your most obedient servant, THOMAS PARKIN. One life was lost,and many persons were severelywounded. The Havre Journal of Thursday asserts that a large armed ship had arrived at Oporto, to reinforce SARTOMUS'S squadron--an acquisition which would place him on an equality with his opponents; he must wait, however, the arrival of the sixty-gun ship from the river Thames, before he can attack with effect. AltanEL's squadron was in Vigo harbour on the 3d inst. together with a Bri.zilian ship, which they had detained, and SAII•• TORIUS was blockading the whole of them. MicuEL's Admiral complained much of the inconvenience of an eight days' quarantine, which the Spanish Governor had im posed on him—interfering, as he affirmed it did, with his obtaining supplies and repairing his damages. He had saluted the Spanish flag with seventeen guns when he an chored, but the compliment was not returned. It is asserted in th e same Journal that the Miguelites had retreated from the city of Oporto, having suffered so much in the attack on St. Michael's day, that they could not maintain their ground. The army of the South hid gone to Oliveira, and that of the North to Arantante. It is also said, but we doubt the truth of it, that Admiral PARACER had landed an English force at Villa Nova, to protect the British pro petty there, and that, subsequent to the retreat of the Aliguelites, Don PEDRO'S troops made a sortie on the few of their opponents who remained, and put them to the rout. —Hampshire Telegraph. The Lord Wellington, now called the " Don Pedro," arrived at Cherbourg, after being be calmed for two days off that place, on Friday. She has proved herself a capital sailer. The William, laden with powder and military stores, arrived at that port on the same day. On Saturday the King of the Netherlands and Lord Wellington steamers sailed from the river with 300 seamen and 60 marines, to he put on board the Wel lington at Cherbourg, and, finally, for Oporto. ✓ The damage done to the ,Soho, by the late accidental fire, appears to have been greatly over-rated, as it was all repaired in less than twelve hours. One of (if not the very) largest steamers in England sailed on Satur day, with 400 men, the greatest part old soldiers, and 20 officers, and the Royal George steamer, on the same day, with 350 men and 15 officers, both for Oporto. Accounts had also been received of the sailing front Ostend of two brigs, with 300 of the Foreign Legion, fur Oporto. The t tal accession which Don PEDRO'S forces will obtain by the end of the month will be 2,000 men and 400 horses. Uniforma, accoutrements, and muskets for those troops have been already forwarded. Count DURNIIOFF is on his return from Ber lin, via the Hague, to London, since the 13th instant. Of this, in fact, Baron BuLow, the Prussi in Minister, was informed by a courier, who left the Count, in the middle or early part of the week, at limerick, on the right bank of the Rhine, opposite Cleves, which is no more than one day's journey from the Hague. Appre hension, are, however, entertained here that the Count may, nevertheless, not reach London before the middle of next week ; as, in the first place, the King of HOLLAND will probably ask fur a few days' grace, to enable him to gi e such an important matter due considerati on ; and, se condly, because the Count may choose to await the arrival of another courier from Berlin, in answe r to the furthe r communications which Baron Bur.ovv has made to his Court, and which Baron MainzairN, the Prussian Arn bissador at the Hague, had before pressed on his Dutch M.jesty. The Count was followed by a Dutch Cabin e t courier, who left Berlin on the 14th instant—thou g h, perhaps, not laden with further proofs of " the sympathy of Foreign Powers." Count Pozzo DI BORGO, who moved heaven and earth to rekindle the embers of this al most extinct sympathy, had his audience of leave from the Emperor of AUSTRIA on the 2d instant, and was about to leave Vienna re infecta. The British Cabinet having an unbounded confidence in the sincerity of France, and tie ing determined to cultivate the friendship and close union of that power, which determination is of older date than the Whig Ministry, having been formed in 1830 by the Duke of WELLINGTON, Count Pozzo displayed all his diplomatic skid to sever asunder this union of the two greatest Powers in the civilized world but all his endea vours proved hitherto a complete failure, and now that old fox, Prince TALLEYRAND, has quite outwitted him by inviting Prussia peaceably to occupy inure fortresses than she could have hoped to conquer by a whole twelve month's hard fighting. This, of course, must remove every objection the great continental Powers could have against the military interference of France, as it places them on a perfect footitag of equality, and shows that France has no after-thought of incorporating Belgium with its dominions. Our Ministers were much twitted to 1831 about the impossibility of getting the French Go vernment to evacuate Belgium when once they had got their foot in it; but the event proved their confidence in the good faith of France not to have been misplaced, and a similar issue may be expected now, a fortiori, after the fair and candid offer made to Prussia, to occupy what parts she liked, and join the peace-making mission of the French army.—Mor ning Paper. CARDIFF.-EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM Ax ELECTOR.—Cardiff is now agitated by the bustle of an election canvass. Lord JAMES STUART, the present highly popular Member, has addressed the electors, stating his re solution not again to take a seat in Parliament; the steadi ness with which he has on all occasions supported the Mi nisters, in opposition to his brother, the Marquis of BUTE, is the reason of his resignation, which was communicated to the voters on Monday night ; and on Tuesday morning a nominee of the Marquis was canvassing, with all the strength and influence of that Nobleman at his back. He is a Tory, and yet highly objectionable even to many of the Tory party, as they consider it to be an attempt to place in I'arliament any individual the noble Marquis thinks pro per. I wish you could get the editors of the liberal papers in Brist , l to notice it; for, I verily believe, if any inde pendent man, who was known to be respectable, and of good sta n di ng i n S oc i ety, were to come f orwar d, he w o uld easily defeat the Marquis of BUTE'S interest, which is not near so extensive as he is led to suppose, or at any rate it would oblige him to induce his brother again to come for ward.—[This is one more argument added to the number daily increasing in favour of the Ballot.--Ed.]--Bristol Mercury. COURT CIRCULAR, All the Cabinet Minister. , , except Lord HOLLAND (who was prevented by indisposit on) (lined with Earl GAM( on Friday, at his residence at East Sheen. Prince TALLICYRAND had an interview with Viscount PALMERATON on Saturday, at the Foreign-office. The Commander of the Forces transacted business on Saturday at the Colonial-office. The Duke of RICHMOND and Mr. POULETT THOMSON had interviews with Viscount Atm-roar on Slturday, at the Treasury. The French Ambassador paid a visit to the Prussian Minister yesterday. Viscount Ilowtcs: arrived in town on Friday from Sprotborough, Yorkshire. THEIR MAJESTIES. (From the Trindsor Express of Saturday.) The weather provin4 so delightful today, a sort of petitefete was prepared at Virginia Water, at which the KING and QUEEN, and the whole Court, including Lord and Lady STAFFORD, with their daughters, the Misses JERNINGHASt (who arrived on a visit yesterday) were pre sent. The Royal party returned to the Castle about half past 5 o'clock. The terrace continues to be open to the public on Sl turddys and Sundays, when this delightful promenade is generally thronged with visitorF, and the bands of the two regim,nts of Guards attend and play alternately for their gratification. The workmen are gradually proceeding with the inte rior of the Round Tower, which it is expected will be completed by the time their MAJESTIES return to Wind sor in the Spring. The pictures which were some time since brought from London, and placed in the Waterloo Gallery, have lately been taken down, in order to allow of thin portion of the building being completed. The day for the removal to Brighton has not yet been definitively fixed by his MAJESTY. We are happy to state that their MAJESTIES and the rest of the Royal Family continue in good health, with the exception of the Duchess of GLOUCESTER ; who, however, tee are enabled to state is much better. ROYAL VISIT TO CHESTER. (From a Correspondent of a Morning Paper.) CHESTER, FRIDAY. Nothing could exceed the enthusiasm of the inhabitants in their endeavours to give all possible éclat to the visit of the Duchess of Kent and the Princess Victoria. The shops were closed. The houses, windows, and even the " posts" of our unique rows, were tastefully decorated with laurel and garlands of flowers, interspersed with flags, bearing a variety of appropriate inscriptions and tasteful devices. Precisely at 1 o'clock the expected signal was given, and the cortege approached the bridge, under a Royal salute of 21 guns from the Castle-yard. The Royal visitors ware met at the great western door Hof the Cathedral by the Lord Bishop, the Rev. Prebendary Blomfield, the Rev. Chancellor Raikes, the Rev. Joseph Eaton, Precentor, the Rev. J. Halton, and other dignita ries of the Cathedral. The Rev. Prebendary Blomfield, the Rev. Chancellor Raikes, and the Rev. W. Richardson, vicar of St. John's (the patriarchal father of the clerey of this diocese), were then presented to her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent by the Marquis of Westminster. Among other objects of curiosity in the Chapter-house, brought under the no ice of their Royal Highnesses, was a portion of the sarcopha gus of Hugh Lupus, the first Earl of Chester, the ancestor of the ancient and noble family of Grosvenor. This va luable relic of antiquity was dug up in the Chapter-house about a century ago, whe❑ that part of the sacred edifice was under repair, together with some portions of the shroud in which the body of the Earl was wrapped. The I fitter, which possesses the remarkable quality of having a!most successfully resisted the all-devouring voracity of the tomb during a long succession of centuries, is of a curiously checkered pattern; it very much resembles hair in appearance, but the precise material of which it is coin posed is, we believe, at present unknown. The Royal party entered the Bishop's Palace through the private pas sage from the Cathedral; and after partaking of an elegant collation, set out on their return to Eaton, at 3 o'clock, unlit:- another Royal salute from the Castle. The Duke of DEVONSHIRE is, at present, at his " Princely Palace" at Chatsworth, preparing to receive the Duchess of KENT and the Princess VICTORIA. Lord and Lady CAVENDISH, Lord and Lady DOVER, Lord MORPETII, Sir AncysTus CLIFFORD, and some other distinguished friends, will join the Royal cortege during their stay. The Princess and the Duchess of KENT will visit Hardwick Ball in Derbyshire, and Bolton Abbey in Yorkshire, vene rable seats of the Duke of DEVONSHIRE, whilst they sojourn at Chatsworth. The Duke of WELLINGTON paraded the 'treets of London on horseback on Friday and on Saturday. He is now gone to the review of the Conservative Yeomanry in the Marquis of SALISBURY'S Park at Hatfield. The appearance of his Grace, we regret to say, by ❑o means indicated health. The Marquis of HERTFORD has broken up his establishment at Sudbourne Hall, and returned to his villa in the Regent's Paik, where he wid remain until he takes his departure for Italy—a mansion at Naples having been engaged for the Noble Marquis and his large suite. Lord HERTFORD will remain abroad until the spring of the ensuing year. Enthusiasm in the cause of constitutional free dom in Portugal seems to be prevalent throughout the country. Several recruits for the service of Don PEDRO have voluntarily proffered their services in these towns, and, having been accepted, they have sailed for Oporto. A large quantity of hay also has b!en bought up in the neighbourhood for the purpose of being transmitted to th e same destination, together with a considerable number of horses.—Plymouth Journal. The Count de SURVILLIERS (JOSEPH Bo- NAPARTE) is in daily expectation of the arrival of his bro ther JEROME BONAPARTE, formerly King of Westphalia, who is on his way from Stutgard. JEROME BONAPARTE travels under the title of the Duke de MONTFORT. The Count de SURVILLIERS continues to reside at the mansion in Park -crescent, la.ely occupied by General ST. GEORGE ASHE, which it is understood he has taken for one year. The Countess of GLENGALL, Sir F. BURDETT, and other persons of distinction, have invited parties at dinner dur ing the week to meet the ex-Monarch of Spa'n. sht:peA n el egant Eepty,ar,:h li Earl SPENCER has recently carried into ex e tion a n i nte ntion which be has long entertained, to re haquish a ll cla i m of pr i nc i pal or i nterest upon the sum of 500/ , a l oan ma d e some years ago b y h i s Lordship to re lieve the difficulties of the R o yal In s tit u ti on i n Albemarle ibcs nv tet post oe venerable rset storanv,uel gr i much Earla expresseddiminished. v,,,a s shipped himself at the Custom-house on Thursthy for th e Marquis of ABERCORN, whose lone-talked-of marriage with L a d y LOUISA R USSELL i s exp ected to be solemnized on Thur.. dry next, at the seat of the Earl of ABERDEEN.

We understand that the lovely bride will be attired a /a ntorije Francaise, in a dress of white satin, with a magnificent blond veil confined in her hair by a g irland of orange blossom, nearly as her fair cousin and sister-in-law Lady WRIOTHESLEY RUSSELL appeared at her wedding, and was afterwards painted by CHALON, at the request of the Duchess. This union will take place with the entire concurrence of the noble families on both sides. The Duke of IdEnronn has arrived at Inverara, his Grace's cottage in the Highlands, to give his daughter .way, and finally arrange the marriage settlements ; and Lord CLAUDE HAMILTON, only brothvr to the Marquis of ABERCORN, has left Argyll House on his way to the Highlands, to be present at the celebration of his noble relative's marriage. . The facts stated by the present LORD MAYOR in hi 4 late address to the electors of London, at the Man sion House, viz that the city paid to the house tax more than 18 out of the 52 counties, and the metropolitan districts equal to 46 counties, is calculated to place the unequal operation of that tax in a novel aad striking point of View. The Conservatives have recently started an other expedient, in time hope of assisting the cause of the Tories at the county elections. The majority of Lord Lieutenants of counties having received their appointments from the last Government, or previous Governments ex urrssing the same anti-reform opinions, are, under the 2uidance of the great C apta i n of the age and the ex- Secretary of the Admiralty, getting up reviews of yeo manry cavalry, under the auspices of the different Lord Lieutenants, who ate, in general, the Colonels of the corps, which, for the day, each Colonel enter air-s with a costly dinner ; and at all these parties the Duke of WELLING TON gives his presence and after dinner a speech. The first experiment was made by the ex-Premier himself on his own domain, and it was a total failure. The meeting of Lord WINCIIILSEA'S in Eastwell Park, the other day, proved a botch ; and we predict a similar disappointment at the Marquis of SALISBURY'S, in Hatfield Park, this day or to-morrow, where the Noble Duke and his Conser vative troops will a g ai n b e prese nt.—Morn big Chronicle. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. NXWMARKET SECOND OCTOBER MEETING.

It was said of Lord THURLOW that in the Cabinet he opposed every thing, proposed nothing, and was ready to support any thing. On Wednesday evening Mrs. EMERY, the wife of a resident mechanic, addressed a full meeting of the Brighton Political Union, at the Brunswick Arms Inn, pursuant to a notice given last week. Her chief ob ject was to vindicate the propriety and the right of fe males attending meetings of this nature, and discussing subjects of public and political interest. To the female sex, she contended, were committed the care and culture of the rising generation, and on the principles which they instilled into the youthful mind chiefly depended whether the future race should be freemen or slaves. The effect of her speech was somewhat impaired by her delivering it from written notes, but she commanded much attention from the auditory, and as an earnest of her future efforts, we observed in addition to the members about a dozen re spectable females in the room. _ . . • ---- ------- •--- - ----- From Bogota Papers to the 13th of Au gait, received yesterday, it appears that the State of Ve nezuela has declared in a decree that the independence of the Republic being secured, that State is willing to enter into commercial relations with Spain, provided that the Justice of the cause of Venezuela be recognized by the Spa nish Government.

Bright samples of Barley for malting sold at last quotations, but stained Barley was 2s. to 3s per qr. cheaper. Beans, both old and new, are dull and rather lower. The quan tity of Oats here is large, and the demand being slack, the prices of last Monday are hardly supported. There was a fair trade during the preceding week for fine Flour, but to-day the demand has not been so brisk, and prices are unaltered. PRICKS ON BOARD OF SHIP.

M. A LLcaorr, Gentlemen, Chamberlains.— Worcester Her. A certain Ducal hero has been so particular in his attentions to a celebrated young beauty, that many persons suppose that A House will soon have a mistress. The young lady alluded to is so distinguished for her beauty, attainments, and high connections, that it seems to be agreed on, by all who have the happiness of knowing her, that she ought to fill the highest station amongst our nobility ; and, as Venus was known to re ward Mars for Lis toils, the lovely Miss may well serve as a substitute, and bless our British Mars with her hand.— Court Journal. TRIAL OF THE MAGISTRATES.—About 140 witnesses are subpoenaed on these trials, and we hear that the London coaches are engaged for Tuesday and Wednesday next, to convey them to London. The night conches will run by day ; and the witnesses for the pro secution will be conveyed to town on Tuesday ; the wit nesses for the defence on Wednesday. —Bristol Mercury. In the erection of the National Gallery, which is to endure " for all time," it is to he hoped that no niggard economy will be exercised, but that such a one will arise as shall confer imperishable honour on the Arta, and the nation which nurtured them, MORE TITHE DOINGS 1-THE ARMY. Our readers are aware that the garrison of Tralee haft Keen sojourning in Iveragb, for some weeks past, to aid the parsons without flocks in that part of the world to collect the tenth of the industry of their Popish pa rishioners. On Thursday last the Rev. G. Hickson sum moned the whole garrison, consisting of three companies of the 32d, commanded by the celebrated Captain Smith, to aid and assist in a tit e sale in the remote distr:ct o:' liallinskellix, distant about twelve miles from Cah:r, where the military were cantoned. The weather far some days Mote had been very rainy, and torrents of rain were pouring on the day in question. On this occasion the military had to wade through two rivers before they reached the pound of Billinskellix. The streams were swollen by the late rains, and the party were actually up , 0 their waists in water when fording the a!ream of Di. een ; loud and deep were the murmurs of the soldiery at Vie hardships they were obliged to endure, and we have heard that their threats of vengeance against the pe intry, whom they considered were the cause of 'heir being Wrought there, were not disguised. The officers and men were scarce rid of the drippings of the stream of Direeu, when they had to plunge into the swollen river of Bailin and wade thr , ugh it, as if the soldiers of Napo !eon, the enemies of England, were to be encountered on the opposite bank - . But no—the heroes of the Peninsula and the conquerors of Waterloo were not compelled to ndure these hardships that the enemies of their country .nay be encountered, but that the pigs of the Irish peas nt may be sold, and that the proud troops of England—the victors in a hundred battles —may be degraded into the hotly guards —aye, into the mere pig -drivers of the Milli 'ithe proctors. On arriving at the pound of Ballinskellx, hii Reve rence ordered the pound to be thrown open, and the cattle which were distrained for tithe to be driven forth. A few hungry pigs, which had been enclosed in the pound far some days, rushed forth and spread consternation among the ranks; the animals were making their escape, when soldiers and all were ordered to pursue them, and the cene hecaine ludicrous to a degree; the tails of the pigs were wet and slippery, the chase was long and arduous, but at length the apostolic hnntosnen were successful, and he pigs were recaptured and duly sold by auction, the •d , ?ders being, of course, the creatures of his Reverence. The dal-ion and contempt of the peasantry in the dis ricts where these proceedings took place here tnanifested fl a manner quite characteristic. Old women, in fanta,tic d o ass, used to come out before the procession, and grin and hoot at the Reverer.d leader, so as to excite the iughter of the crowds that accompanied him ; ani when th y arrived at the pound, a young mountain bull, of the rue Keay breed, with an old hat and ribbons stuck on ad] horn, was driven into the crowd. A sudden panic &zed the tithe proctors ; the soldiers were ordered to prepare fir resistance, while the laughter and derision of the crowd exasperated his Revereuce and his adherents to , he utmost —so much so, that one of his friends, we be lieve a Magistrate, called out, " Come forward any one of y e, ye cowardly rascals, and I will fight you myself, with ut calling for the help of the soldiers at all." The chal enge of the pugnacious champion of the establishment was, course, treated with contempt, the people mauVesting he utmost forbearance, and leaving to the old woolen and children the duty of deriding and ridiculing the ptoce,si Tralee Mercury. HUDDERSFIELD MARKET.—The demand n• cloths on Tuesday last was good, especially for winter 13 tidies ; still prices continue low. An advance, Lowever, oust soon take place, owing to the state of the wool .nat ket.—Leeds Mercury. ROCHDALE, OCT. 5. The demand for flannels still continues brisk. Fine goods have sold well, nd low goods are much inquired for.—Leeds Mercury. THE TRADE OF SHEFFIELD.—We are sorry to have to state that the trade of Sheffield is at pre - lit in a very depressed state, and from what we are able tit learn, there is no near prospect of material improve nent. The American trade, which usually furnishes em ployment for a large portion of our workmen, is com pletely at a stand. This has been cansNi in great part Ito the ravages of cholera in America; and though it is nearly -xtinct now, yet the country people have been so much a'armed, that some time must elapse before they will ven •ure to pursue their traffic as usual.—Sheffield indepewieut. STATE OF TRADE.—We are happy to be tale to state that the trade of this district, though yet far rpm prosperous, continues to improve, and a great deal of iesiness is doing, in a safe way, and without any thing lie speculation. The low stocks in tire hands of the re . til dealers are now in the course of being replenished ; ,nd i. is to be exp cted that the farmers, whose circurn-• tances have been improved by a good harvest end a remu crating price for their wool, will be considerable custo tiers for manufactured goods this winter. The worsted tuff trade is in a still better state than the woollen trade, :nd has admitted of an advance both of prices and wages. l'he blanket trade, after same months of deep di-pression, las become uncommonly active. Oa the whole, the pros •rects of the winter are encouraging. Our accounts fron► Lancashire are, at the least, as favourable as those from various parts of Yorkshire. The cotton manufacturers ire well employed, and the large demand which they now rave for the home market is clearing if the heavy stocks if goods they had accumulated. They also find their •ayments come in punctually, which speaks well for the ,iittation of the drapers. The foreign trade is improving. C Coon Wool has risen three farthings per pound within h e last five weeks, owing to the stocks in the por:s being iio,ooo bags less th in at the same period last year, whilst the consumption continues great; and it is supposed the 'Lifer n.e will to still more considerable before the end of .he year.—Leeds Mercury. PAYING WAGES ON THE FRIDAY.—Seve -al tradesmen and farmers in different parts of the king-. lion have adopted the plan of paying their workmen on lriday, to give them an opportunity of providing what is needful on the Saturday. This is beneficial to the poor, not only by enabling them to purchase al tic'es more cheaply, but also to prepare themselves for church on Sunday mornings.—Kent Herald, Lord BYRON said that " Love, like the .oeasl, 6, was most dangerous when it came late in life." RECOVERY OV THE PAISLEY UNION Ltnic STOLEN NurEs.—lt may he recellec'ed that up , a rds of 12 years ago the Paisley Union Banks Branch here vas broken into and robbed, and that a greater portion of re stolen notes was shortly afterwards recovered. But here was a considerable sum of the Company's 20/. note; :hich could not then be traced. In the end of August est, five of these notes having been put in circulation, the Bank determined to make another attempt to recover the ehole of them, and employed that intelligent and active !plunger, Mr. HENRY MILLER, of this place, who, after nany weeks spent in perseverin4 inquiry ar.d exertion in .:ulinburgli, London, and Birmingham, succeeded in reco ..ering and bringing to Scotland the whole remaining eauount of the 201. notes. Glasgow Courier. ACCIDENT ON THE LIVERPOOL AND MAN CHESTER RAtt,war,—Wednesday as the eight o'clock train from Manchester was proceeding at a rapid rate over Chatinoss, as engine was suddenly thrown otT the rails, o.ving to one of the moveable points or switches (which are used to effect a junction between one line and another) utu•ing left in a wrong position.

DISTRESSING .SUICIDE.—An inquest was ,eld on Saturday, at the Lord Nelson, Greenwich, on the b nly of Mrs. ANN HAYTOa, of East-street, in that town, who destroyed herself by cutting her throat. It appeared, :in the evidence of the deceased's son, that she became hum-spirited, in consequence of having been locked up in ' toe station-house, on suspicion of having broken open a and abstracted 12 yards of silk from it. The deceased 'use about 5 o'clock in the morning, and desired witness to get up ; be, however, fell off to sleep, and shortly after ‘v is awoke by a noise ; on which he arose in the bed, and liscovered his mother prostrate on the f1.,0r, with her throat cut, and a razar stained with blood by her side. she expired shortly afterwards.
