The whole property is in excel lent, substantial, and decorative repair.

The two side houses each contain 10 rooms, and are let at comparatively low rentals to yearly tenants, as is also the ground floor of the principal building, forming the library, but tjie tenant of the latter has received notice to quit at Michaelmas, and possessien of the other parts of the build ing can be given at Lady Day next, and it is probable that, if de sired, arrangement could be made for obtaining possession of the whole at the same time.

It never will be outdone. The Diamond Camel Lamp is perfection in light. The public will have none ether. Designs the most chaste and elaborate to suit every taste.—To be had only, and seen daily, at CLARK'S, the Immense Lamp repot, 447, West Strand, tea doors from Lowther-arcade.

All can now be pleased, whatever is desired in Light. The PEARL CANDLE LAMP is the perfection of Candle Lights, and must succeed ; its simplicity myriads will admire. To sell the ordi nary Candle La►aps is now impossible—the public have long enough been pestered with such rubbish. The DIAMOND CARCEL OIL LAMP is the best oil light in the world. The Carcel Lamp is used in all the Palaces in Europe; this is sufficient guarantee for all—it never will be out-done. The STARLIGHT NIGHT LIGHT is a beautiful little light to illumine the bedchamber. All other night lights will be used no more; its economy and simplicity all will admire, for what can be desired more than perfection ? To what concluaion can we come? Certain, henceforward the only lights will be—the Sun, tke mighty gem of Heaven by day ; the Pearl and Diamond Lights at evening ; and the Star at night, to illumine the British territory.

LAW INTELLIGENCE. ARCHES' COURT, March 2. (Before Sir H. JENNER FUST.) THE COUNTESS DYSART V. EARL DYSART. This was an appeal from a decision of the • Consistorial Court of London in a suit for the restitution of conjugal rights, brought by the Earl Dysart against the Countess Dysart, in which the Countess had been directed to return to cohabitation. Sir H. JENNER FUST proceeded to• day to deliver the judg ment of the Court. It appeared that the marriage took place in 1819, and during a period of eighteen years the parties bad not lived together for periods of more than three years, at various intervals. With whom was the fault? On the pal t of the Countess it nas alleged that she could not live with her husband but at the hazard of her life; and on his part it was urged that the wife should comform to the habits of her husband. The difficulty in this case, as in others, was, the application of the general law. In " Evans and Evans," Ist Haggard, it was said that if reasonable apprehension existed of danger of life or limb, there was ground for a divorce. In " Oliver v. Oliver," it was held that everything, in legal construction, was sufficient which tended to bodily harm. Whatever might have been the origin of the quarrel, there was enough to satisfy the Court that wilful violence was used upon the wife, from which she had an undoubted right to be protected. In " Harris v. Harris" the Court said that there must be something which rendered cohabitation unsafe, or likely to be attended with irjury to the party. By these principles the Court must be governed in the application of the law to this particular case. If there had been actual cruelty er reasonable apprehension from the conduct of the party, that was sufficient to entitle the other party to the protection of the Court from a recur rence of the violence or that conduct which tended to pro duce bodily injury, and it was not necessary that the wife's conduct should be altogether free from blame. What was the state and condition of these parties at the time of the marriage? The Earl and Countess were first cousins, being the children of two sisters. The father of the Earl was possessed of large estates, which were entailed on the son, the present Earl, who, during his father's life, was entirely dependent upon him. The marriage was directly contrary to the express wishes and opinions of the father, and he refused to make any allowance. His son in consectue.nce purchased an annuity for 3,000/. during the joint, levee of himself and his father, and secured an annuity of 1,0001. to his wife should she survive him; The mat deration was 110,000/. This income was amply sufficient to enable him to live in comfort and respectability. It had been said that the habits and tastes of Lord Dysart were known to his wife before marriage to have been peculiar and eccentric, and that she ought to have made up her iniqcU to conform to his wishes. But there was no reason to suppose that those habits were to be carried to such an extent as to deprive her of the comforts of life. She could not have supposed that that degree of economy would have been practised which would deprive her of that to which she had been accustomed. There was no reason to believe that she was anxious for more than was suitable to the fortune of her husband, or that she was inclined to indulge in what had been called the pleasures of a London life. There was no reason to believe that the marriage was not one of mutual affec tion ; and there was nothing to reflect on the conduct of the wife in expecting that she should be maintained in decency and comfort, according to his income. It was on the birth of a son that the first circumstance oc curred which appeared to have given offence to the Earl. He then acted on the impression that the conduct of his wife showed indifference towards him. After that he was in the constant habit of swearing at and abusing her. She was deprived of all authority in the house; he was keeper of the stores; he gave them out as be thought proper, and directed what supplies were to be furnished to his wife of articles of necessary consumption. She had no fish, no poultry, and a joint of meat was only oc casionally dressed. He allowed her but one candle a night. There was scarcely any fire in the drawing-room, and the house and furniture were unfit for a lady. One witness said she had known the Countess tremble at the sound of his feet on the stairs. V. as there not, then, that degree of discomfit which might have rendered it extremely disagreeable for Lady Dysart to have cohabited under such circumstances? Not that she was justified in leaving the house, but there was grievous ground of complaint. It might have been productive of inconvenience, it might have injured her feelings, and to a certain degree affected her health ; but still this was all to be borne. There were other circumstances, however, of a more serious cha racter. His Lordship was heard abusing Lady Dysart, and on the door being opened she was found in a fainting fit, and said she had received a kick from her husband. On another occasion she was heard screaming out murder, and on another he was seen pushing her out of the dressing-room. This was the history of the parties up to 1827. From 1827 to 1834, there was no residence together. In 1834 there was cohabi tation for a few days in Hyde Park-gardens. In 1836 she returned to the residence of her husband, and the same general system of degradation and insult was charged to have been practised towards her. On the 23d January there was no doubt there was an act of legal violence. Upon the whole, therefore, notwithstanding the respect to which the opinion of the Jude of the Court below was entitled, and which had induced him to give longer time to the consideration of this case, he must reverse the sentence of the Court below, and pronounce for the separation of the parties. UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE. THE CHANCELLORSHIP. CAMBRIDGX, MARCH 2.—This day a Congregation!was held, at eleven o'clock, for the purpose of reading to the Senate the following letter written to his Royal Highness the Prince Albert by the public orator, in the name of the Senate,!announcing his Royal Highness's election into the office of Chancellor of the University, of which the following is a copy : MIMEO POTENTISSIMOQUE PRINCIPI ALBERTO, CANCELLARIO ABADEMLE DESIGNATO, PROCANCELLARIUS, SRNATUSQUE CANTABRIGIUNSIS, S.

At enim ab inani desiderio et miscricordia nos statim revocabat legibus institutisque nostris obtemperatio per qua, a magistratus in tercapedine diuturniore prrecautum est, quibusque in futu rum Reipublicre commodum potius providere prxscriptum est, quam de honorum interitu frustra dolere et conqueri.

Itaque vulneribus remedium qurercuti tua prresentissima occurrebat aanatio, quip perculsa et prostrata ,jacebant excitare et instaurare to solus posse vinebatts—qualt ope et consilio destituti eramus, talem adjutorem et consiliarium to confideatem promittebat Lse_ f„onfinuabat . et spondebat • requites tras alma. Tua profecto auctoritate coafirmatis, tuine i keit_ gratiam, fore ut non modo jacenteat civitatem extollere, sed etiam amplificare ejus pristinam dignitatem liceat, facile persuasum est. Quid ? quod a Regibus olim fundata, Re gum, uti par erat, patrocinium petebat Academia. Princi pum, benevolentiii stabilitatem. Principis numen et auxilium supplex audebat implorate. Quam olim nascentem placido lumine viderat Regina, et vix desperandum erat, talem quoque honorum adjutorem adscisci posse, talem fortune rum suarum defensorem et custodem, qualem te quoque, Princeps clementissime, futurum ease penitus confidit Civitas. His igitur literis tihi significandum esse Senatus cen suit, ad amplissimum munus et officium te libentissime suffragiis suis elegisse. Quam rerum administrationem ut clementer velis suscipere, omni studio et veneratione orat atque obsecrat Academia. Liceat nobis supplicare ut Rem publicam nostram maxima auctoritate tua confirmes. ut hanc sedem antiquam Philosophise dignitate tua exornes, literis et humanitate illustrem reddas, ut jura defendas, ut libertatem tuearis, et denique in nosmet imperium teneas, quod paci et tranquillitati maximo conducat, quod religioni et pietati erga Deum prvesertim faveat, quod huic uni magic omnibus inserviat, in quo salus preecipue nititur Acidemire, pnesidio videlicet Ecclesim. A grace was then offered to the Senate and passed for affixing the seal and presenting the letter to his Royal Highness. Immediately after the Congregation the Vice-Chancellor and the Senior Esquire Bedell proceeded to London and re paired straightway to Buckingham Palace to lay the result before his Royal Highness. They were honoured by an in terview with the Prince at about half-past five o'clock, at which his Royal Highness expressed himself in the warmest terms of satisfaction at the distinguished honour conferred upon him by the University of Cambridge, and the sincere gratification he felt in accepting it His Royal Highness conversed with the deputation on the subject of English uni versity discipline, and evinced considerable knowledge of the Oxford and Cambridge systems. _ _ _ The important ceremony of the inauguration of the new Chancellor is expected to take place on Thursday, the 18th inst.; the installation, and the usual festivities connected therewith, at the July commencement. • London: John Churchill, Princes-street, Soho.

PHYSICAL VERSUS M O RAL.--Whether th e Physi cal wants should be remedie d throu g h the Moral, or th e Moral through the Physical, has been a questi on which has occupied the attention of philosophers and philanthropists for centuries. Without attempting to decide the question, there can be no doubt that when the Physical condition is impaired it demands the first attention. For instance; a person whilst suffering from an acute attack of Gout would be unable to appreciate the sublimest lessons of philosophy, even though enunciated by the divine Plato. no much ow more welcome to the sufferer would be a box. of Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills, so efficacious in eradicatin g this distressing malady. THE DUKE OF SOMERSET.—Last evening, upon making inquiry of Dr. Parrott, the medical attendant of the Duke of Somerset, relative to his Grace's health, it was as certained that the Noble Duke was going on as favourable as possible, and that all unfavourable symptoms have disap peared; indeed, we may, to quiet the apprehensions of his Grace's friends, state that he is now enjoying his customary health.

The Select Committee, appointed to inquire into the navi gation laws, re-assembled yesterday, at one o'clock, in Com mittee Room No. 25, for the purpose of continuing their in quiry. On presenting themselves in the committee-room, the reporters found that strangers were not to be admitted. After some time, however, they obtained admission, but had hardly seated themselves when the room was ordered to be cleared, and a discussion took place as to the propriety of their being present. The discussion resulted in their being admitted. On re-entering the committee-room Mr. G. Shaw Lefevre was being examined. He was proceeding clause by clause to explain the provisions of the Navigation Act, and had concluded several clauses before the reprters were ad mitted. He was understood to say that by the (then in ex planation) foreign ships might export goods from this coun try, and that a large portion of the export trade was carried on by foreign ships. Of late years several instances had oc curred of the privilege being given to foreign ships to bring foreign goods from foreign ports, other than those to which the ships belonged. This privilege had been granted to Austria. Austrian ships arriving from the ports of the Danube were admitted into the ports of the United King dom in the same manner as if they came direct from an Austrian port. This privilege had been granted by a treaty. Several other treaties had also been made, by which similar privileges were granted to eight countries, viz., to Russia, Prussia, the Hanseatic Towns, Oldenburg, Hanover, Meckli,nburg Schwerin, Mecklenburg- Strelitz, the Zoll verein, &c. &c. lie was not aware of the effect of these treaties on British shipping. The only certificate of the ori gin of the produce brought by these foreign vessels, required by the Custom-house, was the declaration of the master of the port from whence the vessel came. European manufac tures, of American or Asiatic produce, might be imported as European produce. Sugar refined in Europe might come in any ship from any port, but not if it did not require refining. Wheat, the produce of America and ground in France, might come in under the sth clause of this law. The same with tobacco. Cotton wool could not be imported from Europe in any other than a British ship. Russian corn might be brought from Hamburgh in a Rusian or Hamburgh ship; but American produce from Russia cou ld on l y b e brought i n a British ship. This law imposed no restriction upon the trade of the Channel Islands, or that of Malta and Gibraltar ; foreign vessels could carry colonial produce to Guernsey and Jersey; which, if it came to England, could only be brought in Ifri tishships. (Mr. Mitchell—A p rem i um i s t h ere b y given to foreign ships.) English pr o d uce cou ld on l y b e i mported into Guernsey and Jersey by British ships. No goods could be imported into the British possessions from Asia, Africa, and America, in foreign ships, unless the ships be longed to the country of which the goods were the produce. With regard to the effect of the navigation laws on the East India territories, th e di rectors o f t h e E ast I n di a Company, by a regulation dated December 2, 1839, in pursuance of the 7th clause of their Act of Incorporation, permitted the introduc tion of foreign goods in any ship. There was nothing to pre vent foreign good s f rom b e i ng i mported into China. With regard to the registration o f s hippi ng owne d b y f ore i gners i n England, foreigners might purchase the whole of the shares of a British steam company, or might even commence a steam company here, and it would be registered, as the law now stands. It would be registered in the name of the corporate body, and not in th e name o f t rustees. I t was a necessary condition that the owner of a ship should reside within her Majesty's dominions, but he did not think that all the shareholders in a ship were bound to reside in the United Kingdom. Mr. Lefevre's explanation of the re mainder of the clauses was unimportant, and he having con cluded, the Committee, all of whom, with the exception of Mr. Hume, were present, adjourned at four o'clock till Thurs day, the 4th instant. M. DUMAS ONCE MORE. The following gem of correspondence has been published by one of our contemporaries:— " Sir,—You insulted me the other day in the Chamber of Deputies. Free to-day from all busines engagements, I send to you my friend, M. Viennet, Peer of France, President of the Society of Men of Letters, to learn the day, the place, and the hour— (we give the conclusion in the original French, lest it might be supposed we exaggerated)—oti it nous con• vient que nous couperons la gorge. " ALEXANDRE ;PUMAS, Marquis de la Pailleterie." To this strange epistle the sensible M. de Maleville sent the following amusing answer:— " Sir,—l thank you for having afforded me the opportu nity of seeing the agreeable and excellent M. Viennet. As to the proposal which you are good enough to make to cut my throat, I am chagrined beyond measure at not being able to accept it. 1 have not the honour to be a gentleman. " Marquis de MALEVILLE." MONEY MARKET.—The premium on gold at Paris is 10 per mille, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 178 1014 d. per ounce for standard g old, g ives an exchange of 25.40; and the exchange at Paris on London at short being 25.271, it follows that gold is 0.49 p er cent. dearer in Paris than in London. By advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is 430% per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 10%d. per ounce for stan dard g old, g ives an exchange of 13.7.% ; and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13.6, it follows that gold is 0.82 per cent. dearer in Hamburgh than ,in London. The last quotation of the ex change at St. Petersburgh was 39id. per rouble at three months' date. According to the usual calculation that 100 sovereigns will yield 60 59-100 gold imperials at St. Peters burgh, the transmission of gold would give an exchange of 38 45.100 d. per silver rouble; and the gross profit on the operation would be ab out 2 ? er cent. k from which, however would have to be ded ucted the loss of interest and charges of transport. DHAINAGE.—From a return just issued by order of Parliament it appears that, in England, there hare been 48 applications made for advances, amounting to 211,8431., of public money, unde r the Act of last session, c. 101 ; and from Scotland 168 applications, the sums applied for amounting to 803,804/. From Ireland there have been 28 applications, for a sum total of 39,171/. ; of which . three have been sanctioned, to the amount of 9,1411. This last statement is dated 16th ult. DREADFUL ACCIDENT IN THE STRAND Last night, shortly before e leven o'clock, a youth, named Watkins, while crossing t he carriage way of the e Strand, opposite Ex eter Hall, was run over by an omnibus proceeding towards Charing•cross. had The poor fellow was picked up in an insensi ble state, when beeund that injuries of the most fright , ful description sustiuned. POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTION. The lecturer on natural philosophy of this establishment, Dr. Bachhoffner, has been engaged in delivering lectures on astronomy. This gentleman stated, on Monday last, that the lecture which he was about to deliver was intended as an outline of the various subjects that would be dwelt upon more at large in the subsequent lectures. The lecturer en deavoured to impress upon his audience the importance and pleasure derived even from a slight acquaintance with this sublime science; and although at present a knowledge of the subject was confined to the few, he could not but consider that this arose in a great measure from overrating the neces sary amount of knowledge which an individual ought to possess before he dare venture upon its study. At the same time the Doctor felt bound to admit, that every individual wishing to become a profound astronomer must, on the one hand, be a mathematician of no mean acquirements, and, on the other, be in possession, and likewise have a knowledge of, the use of instruments of a costly character. But this was altogether unnecessary for those who merely required an out line of the science, or that portion of the subject comprised under the head of descriptive astronomy, which might be easily done, with a little perseverance, by one of the meanest capacity, and by the aid of a common day and night telescope, a celestial atlas or globe, and an ephemeris, such as that furnished by the publishers of the Illustrated London News. The lecturer, atter describing the erroneous views of Ptolemy and the dogmas of Aristotle, which had enthralled the world for more than 1,400 years, as also the abortive attempts of Tycho Brahe, then directed the attention of his auditors to the only true system, origin ally taught by Pythagoras, and revived by Copernicus, and finally fixed on more solid foundation by the labours of Galileo, Kepler, Newton, La Plase, arid others—that although the destroying hand of time must and will level to the dust the most gorgeous fabric of man's genius, yet this would un doubtedly flourish as the only true system until the end of time. Not the least interesting part of this most pleasing and instructive lecture was the introduction of some beauti ful illuminated diagrams of various nebula, as seen by the aid of that gigantic telescope of Lord. Bosse, and contrasted by the same nebulas as seen and figured by Sir William Herschel, in the description of which ample justice was done to this most astounding, yet sublime subject of the learned lecturer. By way of conclusion, we cannot too strongly recommend all our readers who are anxious to acquire an idea of the wonders of the heavens, to visit the Polytechnic Institution some Monday, Wednesday, or Friday, during the continuance of the course. THE POISONING AND SUICIDE - - --- AT WALTON. PRIMO; MONDAY EVENING.—This evening, at seven o'clock, the deputy coroner resumed the inquest on the body of Fanny Leadbeater, aged 9 years, who died from the effects of poison, supposed to have been administered by her mother to the deceased and four other of the children, on Friday evening last, the mother afterwards being found drowned in the river. Particulars of the case have appeared in a former publication. Joseph Sherlock, a surgeon, of Walton-le-Dale, said that he considered that laudanum was the cause of death. By the CORONER—WouId it not have been advisable to administer stronger remedies on your first visit? Witness— Yes ; had! known there had been such a strong dose I would have done so. A juror—l think Mr. Sherlock was to blame for not giving the children an emetic, or some other strong dose, when he saw that they had taken laudanum and that the mother was missing at the time. Thomas Moore, a surgeon, of Preston, said he knew the deceased Mrs. Leadbeater, mother to the child who had been poisoned. He had known her ever since she was born. She was confined in an asylum about six years ago. He had seen her several times since, and considered her insane to a degree—quite in a mad state. When in a convalescent state, on one occasion, walking in the neighbourhood of the asylum, in the charge of keepers, she jumped off one of the bridges into the canal. When told she had drowned herself he was not surprised, and would not have been had she done it twelve months ago. The CORONER briefly addressed the jury, and after con sulting fur a short time they returned the following verdict : —" That the deceased Mrs. Leadbeater administered a cer tain deadly poison, called laudanum, to the deceased Fanny Leadbeater, she, Mrs. Leadbeater, being at the time in a state of insanity." THE MAILS.--SOUTHAMPTON, MARCH 2.—The Royal West India mail-packet Dee, Captain Allan, with the Gulf and West India mails, left the River this day at three P.M., with a good general cargo, about 32,000/. specie, 43 tons, value 24,300/, quicksilver, and above sixty passengers. The Medway, Captain Andrews, will bring home the next West India and Gulf mails, and may be expected on the 6th. The next outward West India mail-packet will be the Trent, Captain Sturdie, which will leave this port on the 17th inst. The Oriental Company's steam-ship Erin, Captain Sturdie, will take out the East India mails to-morrow to Malta, and thence proceed to Alexandria en route for Bom bay. The Erin will then proceed to Constantinople, Black Sea, &c. She will take out a full cargo of Manchester goods, and full complement of passengers. The Ripon, from Alex andria, with India mails, and Tiber from Gibraltar, are both due, and hourly expected. A letter from. Munich of the 22d says :—" The exasperation of the populace of our city against Madlle. Lola Mones has become so great that the authorities, in order to prevent disturbances, have required the young lady to quit the town. This she did last night, going to a village situated at about five leagues from Munich. The carriage was escorted by a strong detachment of dragoons from the garrison." DEATH OF LORD CLANMORRIS.—We have to an nounce the painful intelligence of the decease, after a short illness, of Dennis Arthur Bingham, Baron Clanmorris, aged 39, at Rugby, Warwickshire. DEATH or SIR GEORGE GIPPS, KNT.—This Gal lant Officer, who had returned only a few weeks back from New South Wales, expired on Sunday last at Canterbury, from disease of the heart, from which affection he bad been suffering for some months past. SHIPMENT OF MEAL STOPPED OFF FOWLIS.—We understand that Mr. Colin Munro, Dingwall, intending to ship about 200 bolls of meal for the West Coast, at Fowlis, dis patched some carts from Dingwall to-day( Friday), with about 50 bolls of oatmeal. The carts no sooner appeared, however, than the people collected, the shipment was stopped, and the carts sent back to Dingwall. There were about 1,000 bolls on board of the vessel, which were purchased at Portsoy, and the remainder of the cargo was to have been made up here. The people have kindled a large bonfire on the beach, and are to watch all night in case further shipment be att empted.-- Ross-shire Advertiser. CULTIVATION OF COTTON IN INDIA. --At a meet ing of the manufacturers of Manchester, held last evening, the Mayor in the chair, a petition was adopted to Parliament, praying for a select committee to make a full and searching inquiry into all the circumstances which affect the cultivation of cotton in India. Viscountess Villiers was safely delivered of a son at an early hour on Monday morning, and we are happy to hear her Ladyship and child are both progressing most favourably. THE SLA B ` TRADE. Toe following is a copy of the Commercial Convention with the King and Chiefs of Cape Mount, west coast Pf Africa : "1. The slave trade is totally abolish cip and all traffic izt slaves punishable. " 2. English vessels shall enjoy free and duarestricted in.. tercourse with the native population. " 3. All Englishmen landing are to be protected. "4. A British factory may be established. "5. In the event of any misunderstanding between the natives and any person or persons under the protection n of England, the offending parties shall be delivered over to the country to which they may belong, to be punished accord ing to law." l3y an additional article it is further agreed ; "That no slaves belonging to natives, not their subjects. nor tributary to them, or to foreigners ( white men), shall be permitted, on any account whatever, to enter and pass through the territory of Cape Mount, &c. " Tb is additional article to have the same force and effect as if it had been inserted, word for word , in the conven tion." The above treaty was signed on the 21st February, 1841. Further engagements entered into in January, 1846 : " At an adjourned meeting and solemn palaver, held on the banks of the river at Cape Mount, on 2d January, 1846, between the King and the Chiefs of that country and Wil-. ham Douglas Brisbane, commanding her Majesty's sloop the Larne, the following articles and conditions were agreed upon : " Art. 1. The conditions of the Convention of 1841 are fully admitted to be binding on the King and Chiefs, &c." of Cape Mount. " All the provisions of that engagement for the suppres sion id the foreign. slave trade are tully confirmed; the ex port of slaves to foreign countries is for ever abolished ; and all persons within the territory of Cape Mount, whether subject to the Chiefs or being within their jurisdiction, guilty of belling or assisting at the sale of any slave, shall be se verely punished. " Art. 2. No European or other person shall be permitted to reside within the territory of the Chiefs of Cape Mount for the purpose of carrying on, in any way, the slave trade. "Art. 3. If at any time it may be found that the slave trade has been carried on through or from the territory of the Chiefs of Cape Mount, Great Britain may interfere, in order by force to suppress the same. British officers may seize vessels and boats found engaged in carrying on the slave trade; and the Chiefs of Cape Mount,will subject themselves to a severe act of displeasure on the part of the Queen of England. " Art. 4.

"It appears that the Bing and Chiefs of Cape Mount n?v, complain that although they are at present faithfully acting up to the terms of the foregoing conditions with this coun try, and are, by so doing; forfeiting all the profits they for merly derived from the slave trade-- "No legitimate commerce has yet found its way to their shores, to compensate them for the loss of that trade, although, as they state, their country is rich in corn, wood, timber, palm oil, ivory, and gold dust." This important question will no doubt be taken into con sideration by the Foreign and Colonial-offices, and by the Board of Trade, in order to concert measures for the opening of a trade between Sierra Leone and Cape Mount. --- THE FACTORY BILL. Yesterday a deputation, consisting of some of the delegates from the manufacturing districts of the north of England, waited on Lord John Russell, and presented him with 83 me morials from as many short-time committees and associated bodies of factory workers and traders. They also presented the following letter from Lord Ashley:— " March 2, 1847. "My Lord,—By desire of the short-time committees of the counties of Lancaster and York, I have the honour to present to your Lordship their several memorials, praying that the long agitated question of the Ten Hours Bill may be speedily settled. "Your Lordship will observe that many memorials are added from artizans and mechanics, expressive of their sym pathy with the operati ves i n f actor i es. " Your Lordship will also be good enough to observe that the memorials state the desire of the working people to leave the matter of wages to be determined by the demand and supply of labour, and that they are ready, with a view to the permanent settlement of the question, to accept a period of eleven hours for the experiment of the limitation, and defer the period of ten hours until the benefit of the enactment shall have been ascertained by the experience of two years. "I have the honour to be, my Lord. " Your most obedient servant, a ASHLEY. " The Lord John Russell, ALP., First Lord of the Treasury. " I add a memorial from Sir. Irvin, the vicar of Leigh, Lancashire, and twelve other clergymen." EXTRAORDINARY APPLICATION REFUSAL TO BURY A CORPSE.—Yesterday Mr. Assinder, jun., a cheesemonger, in Cannon-street-road, who was accom panied by his father, renewed an application he made to Mr. 'Yardley, a month ago, at the Thames Police-court, to com pel a person, named John Cox, a milkman, of No. 37, Chapel street, St. George's-in •the-East, to bury the body of his (Cox's) mother, who died eight weeks ago. Mr. Assinder complained that Cox was one of his father's tenants, and that his mother, an aged woman, died eight weeks ago, and the body still remained unburied. The son of the deceased laboured under an impression that his mother was in a trance; but nothing could be more absurd, for the body was in a decomposed state, and the face of the corpse was mouldy and all manner of colours. The decomposed remains were very offensive to the people in the adjoining houses, and the neighbourhood was in a state of excitement about it. The man, Cox, had been expostulated with, but to no effect, and seemed determined to keep the body above ground. Mr. YARDLEY remembered the last application, and was surprised the remains of th e o ld woman h a d no t b een inter ! red. He had recommended that the parish officers should be applied to to abate the nuisance. Mr. Assinder said that Overton, the parish beadle, had waited upon Mr. Cox, who turned a deaf ear to his entrea ties, and the beadle then referred the matter to the trustees, who declined any active interference in the case. Mr. Yardley thought the parish officers were bound to look after this matter and abate the nuisance—for a nuisance it must be to keep the body of a woman in a dwelling-house in a crowded neighbourhood. Mr. Assinder said that Cox would neither pay any rent, leave the house, or bury the body. His deceased mother hired the house. Mr. Yardley said the tenancy was now vested in the son, and there was a legal process by which he could be compelled to pay the rent and be ejected from the possession. He thought the applicant might, under the circumstances, seize the coffin containing the body, and decently inter it, and he had no doubt the parish officers would give him all the as sistance in their power. Mr. Assinder thanked the magistrate, and said he would not only put an execution into the house of the man Cox, but remove the body of the old woman and bury it. A PRETTY PARSON.—At the Insolvent Debtors' Court, held at York Castle, on Saturday last, before Charles Phillips, Esq., the Rev. Lawrence Eyre, late of Dalby Rectory, near Terrington, and formerly of Barton-upon-Humber, ap plied for his discharge, and .was opposed by Mr. Blau shard on behalf of Mr. Gray, solicitor, York, Mr. William Ashton, Mr. Jonathan Wilson, Messrs. Barber and North, sil versmiths, York, and Mr. John Taylor, upholsterer, Y or k. The insolvent was supported by Mr. Dowse. The grounds of objection urged by Mr. Blanshard, were— , first, that some of the debts were contracted tinder false pretences; secondly, that they were contracted with , out any probable expectation of being able to pay them ; that the insolvent had made away with his property ; and two creditors had been omitted from his schedule, viz., Miss Longley and Miss Flint, of Leeds, to the former of whom, by the report of the Master in Chancery, the insolvent owed 400/. Miss Flint's debt had been contracted in the education of a Miss Hall, whom the insolvent represented as his niece. The insolvent had petitioned the Leeds Bankruptcy Court, but Mr. Commis. sioner Burge had so high an opinion of this reverend gentle man that the petition was dismissed. The insolvent, in his examination, stated that his stipend had been 751. per an num, and admitted that he had obtained money by false pre tences from Mr. Ashton ; that over Miss Longley he had been placed as trustee, and had been called to account for the dis positionof her prope r ty b y t h e C ourt of Chancery ; that the sum claimed by Miss Flint was for the education of a Miss Hall, who lived with him for a year and a half, and has since married her; that he bought her a watch and appendages of the value of 301., for which he gave two notes of hand and 101., and afterwards pawned it; that he obtained 27/. worth of furniture from the shop of Mr. Taylor, for which he never paid, and gave it to Miss Hall's mother, at the time repre senting that it was for a young relativeust setting up house keeping, and giving the address, " Mr. James Sowerby, Nay lor's-row, Drypool, Hull," whereas it was for Mrs. Hall, of that place, who was the wife of a brickmaker. The insol vent so prevaricated while under examination, as to call forth the marked censure of the Commissioner, who said that though he had, prima facie, every respect for the character of a clergyman, still the insolvent's account was so fraught with suspicion that he was not an object for the indulgence of the ccurt. The Commissioner added—" The object of this court is to grant relief to honest debtors who have become in solvent; and in doing that we must take care that persons who do not come under thaw category are not relievedw at . h th a e ve bexpeeennsgeloafd to an h laivoneesbetencreepdaitioodr. the eerhe o utset whether e ar i i s ng a case Iwould the been heard at Leeds, I suggested a t Iwas Wi to th ld ou i t t s w o as me im a p rr o a ss n i g h e le m . ant s in ha ig il h l t e n t o t t he b:is ca c s o e m st e an to d , a adjournednd bail."—Leeds Times.
