UM a past r 'eet.-d nuts or tam ges, and enci d s ea•ceas, oil the w-aste sidesof s me read or common field ; and have reta.m._ possession eitte,ut paying refit or making any acknowledgment that rent or service was due, tiil what was originally an encroachment, became, by lap e of time, as good and indefeasible an estate as that of any Peer in the kingdom. And we know more instances than one in which an overgrown and do mineering proprietor, becoming sensit 1-, too late, of the i , eoeseeienee occasioned by the detachment of these little freeholds from his property, has employed his attorney or bailiff to work on the fears or the ignorance of the poor man, and to intimidate or cajole him into some acknow ledgment or submission which might operate as an aban donment of his legal rights. Such infamous practices have often succeeded without sullying, in pub!ic estima. tion, the coronet c.r the escocheon of the Nimble or Hee. robber who has cond• scended to their use " What does appear upon the evidence is this : —The' a poor tamity reel tor 48 years occupied a cottage and its appurtenances at Wonersh, where Lord Grantley resides, without paying rent or making any ackriewheigmei,t f title to his Lordship or those under whom he claims ; ant' that when the ei.ain ut title was recently made, it was dts tinctly resisted by these poor people, who had so tone been in possession. It appears, further, that his Lord ship, after causing sonic sort of investigation to be made (under colour of the Act of 1 and 2 Vic,, c. 72, •• for facilitating the recevery of the possession of tenements after due determination of the tenancy") by certain neigh bouring Justices of the P -ace at their Petty Sessions, and having procured from these obsequious justices an opinion favourable to his claim and a warrant to take pos session, invaded, at a late hour, the peace of this poor family ; turned husband, wife, and children, houseless into the streets; scattered their furniture in the open air; dug up their garden, and levelled with the ground me cottage which had been for 48 years their shelter and their home— all this in a ease of disputed title and adverse possession. where freehold rights were in question, without any nction in a court of law, or any verdict of a British jury. . . " It is our fixed determination always, and upon all oc casions], to vindicate the rights of the poor against oppres sion, whether the oppressor be a Poor-law Commissioner or a Peer of the realm. Such Aristocrats as Lord Grant ley ought to know that the Conservative Press support the Aristocracy for the sake of the poor anti the middle classes, and will never sacrifice these for the sake of the Aristo cracy. Noble Lords and Hon. Gentlemen, whether they belong to the Grantley or the Waterford school, must be taught that the laws have a power of coercion against them as well as against the poor, and if the existing laws were not enough, we would have other laws made which should be. Fur our own part, we give these persons and their abettors notiee, that we will expose every case which comes to our knowledge, either of their own insel , nt con tempt for ju-tice, or of the !awning lenity which (even when they do not obtain a positive countenanc.) the . , are accustomed to experience at the hands of the inferior ma gistracy. We care not what the rank, name. or politics of the criminal may be, the evil is one which has been long growing, and mu.t be extirpaud from society." However much we may be pleased that the Times should speak such la ., guage, we are still more surprised. In what does this case of the " insolent contempt for justice" of the aristocracy, differ from their ordinary proceedings? In other cases t may pay attention to the forms they have pre scribed forexercising "their insolent contempt for-jus tice," but substainia;ly it is the same. Lord GRA NT- L EY dispossessed a poor man of his property ; the bread taxers dispossess the poor, by meant: n-f a l..gislative form, of their property eve:ry day o 4 their lives. B,:twecn taking away a man's land, which is only valuable as an instrument of production, and taking away the produce of labour, we see no important difference whatever, except that the legis lative robbery is perpetrated with less violence, shocks our feelings less, and is likely,. therefore, to he more permanent and proportionably more mis chievous. Though glad to see the Times take such a course, we cannot feel any peculiar indigna tion at this little ranker shoot than usual of the insolent contempt fer justice in which the aristocracy habitually indulge. Us they cannot reproach for giving them bad counsel, but they may well feel surprise at now being stoned by those who have hallooed them on in their career. For whom has the Times been for three years bullying its opponents---now ridiculing the Chartists, anon kicking the Radicals, and again stifling s' the surpliced ruffians" of Ireland ? For the English Conservative aristocracy. For whom has it kicked down that which it before exalted ? For whom has it trampled justice and libel ty under foot? For the Anglican priesthood, the dear allies of the aristocracy, and theit fellows in robbery and wrong. For insolent contempt of justice, bullying all who stand up to thwart it, the Times is the very type of the aristocracy, and is greatly guilty of having nou rished in them and the Anglican priesthood that : 41 - 1 _ solent contempt for justice which is habitual. to both, and of which the Times has no right io complain. It may not always show itseli in such acts as that fur which a verdict was found against Lord GRANTLEY, but the reason is that it finds in legis lation a safer - mode of attaining its ends. Why should a Lord pull down a cottage, when he can get an Act passed which will make the myrmidons of the law pull it down for him ? Why shou'd I the landlords go and take away the poor man's land by violence, when they can pass' an Act to compel every poor man to give them a share of its Both Houses sat on Saturday, and transacted a considerable quantity of business. Amongst it we must mention that the Commons agreed to the amendments trade by the Lords in the Ecclesias tical Duties and Revenues B 11, except one cou verning the Minor Canons. The Commons also agreed to the Lords' amendments to the Erclesi su,tical &Airs Bill, intendcd for the rel:ef of Trro- Rf,GOOD, but which the Lords !.ave wholly marred by their amendment, that he shall pay costs. A, most of the business was transacted without much debating, the summary, to mention it all, must neces sarily be as long nearly as the report. We shall only direct attention, therefore, to a petition pre sented by Mr. WARBURTON from Mr. OWEN, which was presented in consequence of the Bishop of EXETER'S attack on that gentleman. The produce ? Why trouble themseives to lay personally hands on the poor, when they can get Police Acts, and Bier Acts," and Sabbath Acts, and Trespass Acts, and .Acts pthting down fairs, to be carried nito execution by police, w Inch leave the people no of freedom, and make thtm the horn thralls of .11, landlord,' law 1 EVt:ll their benevolence and hu nanit, perpetniq tasiog Iran the neople the tiolo displdy an insolent colittinpt for ju,- The same insolent contempt for justice which is exhibited by pulling down PUNTER'S cottage, may be traced in almost every Act of Parliament which has any relation to the poor ; and when the aristocracy can so conveniently gratify their insolent contempt of justice, it would only mar the i r own cause to add, as hi the GRANTLEY case, vi )!ence to wickedness. • rice Bishop is by far the most influential puffer of the By using the Legislature, the aristocracy range Owenites they have yet had, and we shall contri- a multitude of the people on their side.

How happy it would be for the Church of Eng land if she could collect all the copies of the New Testament in existence, and make a bonfire of them ; She could thus—and thus only—effectually get rid of that standing witness against het unchns:ian principles and secular character. Whoever looks into the charter of Christianity, and reads with his own eyes what is written there, supposing him ig norant of the forms of religion which have been, patrcnised by the civil magistrate, would expcct to see in the Chistian world, and more particularly in that Church which arrogates to itself the title of Apostolical, par excellence, a simple and spiritual worship—humble, ci!,:ssuming, zealous, and sir:- ritually-minded teachers, inculcating a system of moral righteousness and pure devotion on rational principles, and by the means of moral persuasion. As he finds, in every page of the Gospel, worldly motives represented as at utter variance with the spirit of the Christian religion, he could not fail-to be astonished at discovering that such motives are placed by the fathers and ministers of the Church of England at the very foundation of the religious system which they profess to draw from the sacred records. ~ilst H ighest Inw,,t fast Price Price. re a-.. 4.

The late debates in the House of Lords on the Ecclesiastical Revenues Bill have been of great use in opening the eyes of those who have read them to the irreligious character of a law created Church. The Bishops of EXETER and WiNCHESTER, among other spiritual Lords, have done much to expose its anti scriptural nature, and the witty Canon of St. Paul's ha, discharged a good deal of ink at various times and seasons, if not exactly with that view, mines iionahly to that effixt. In a letter to Lord JOHN RUSSELL, written some tune aqo, tins gen:letnan had the seemingly unconscious imprudence to assert that " the great prizes of the Church induce men to cart y, and tethers and uncles .o send, into the Church considerable capitals, and in this way enalik the cier, l , y :0 as.ociaie w ith genihemnen, and to command teat respect which, in telt countries, and above all ill this, depends so much on appearances.' Naw, would out any one whose mind is not perverted by the seculazizMg iiifluences of au Establishment, imagin e that the writer was speaking of some mercantile speculation, some trading concern, in which the amount of ca pital to lie invested was to depend on the re turn which the business would yie:d 1 1 And this investment of capital is to make the minister of religion " respectable r Shade of ST. PAUL, what 1 sentiment to come from a preacher of. the Gospel I Would this dignitary condescend to associ ate with the Apostle were he to revisit the earth Not he. The tent-maker of Tarsus would not be gentleman enough fur the canonical capitalist of a metropolitan cathedral in the nineteenth century. The Prebendary of St. Paul's continues : '• Tire are admirable mi n, a hose bon, st aid beautiLl zeal carries them into the Church without a moment's th,ught of its emoluments. Such a man, combining the manners of a gentleman with the .icrinirements of a scholar, and the t.al of all Apostle, would overawe mercantile crossness, and extort respect from insolent opulence; but I am talking of average vicars, mixed natures, and 11.000 pariah priests. It you divide the great emoluments of the Church into little pot tions, such as butlers and h,ad gam e . keep-1-s receive, you will vrry soon dugr,,cie materially the sty le and character of the English clergy." Mercantilegrossness indeed F. It wed becomes this trader in religion to talk of mercantile grossness F. What can be more gross or more disgusting than this barefaced avowal—this shameless defence of mercenary motives—in undertaking an office, on the threshold of which, he who enters must swear that he is moved to do so by the HOLY GHOST I If the " style and character of the En g lish Clergy " depend, as this gentleman im plies, on the amount of capital which they possess, we say. the sooner they are " degraded" the better for the Church of England, and for the in terests of religion. But the truth is, that one main reason why those qualities are wanting in the clergy, which this writer allows would command respect, is that unequal distribution of emolument which he regards as necessary to the well-being of the Establishment. If there were no " great prizes"—if the stipends of the clergy were mode rate and equal, there would be less of that scram bling for pelf among them which is so great a scandal to religion, and so great a disgrace to the Church. There would not be the same scope fur the operation of those wor;dlv motives, and feelings which at present give a secular if not sordid character to the whole clerical man. Instead of continually panting after richer livings, as cleray mee now do, tl e workings of ambition would have ro place in the loss ens of men whose whole souls shou:d he tngrosftd with the;r spiritual dories, nor would the sue led tie between the shepheid and his flock be in danger of those sudden and unseemly breaches which so often occur, for no other reason than to serve the personal and worldly interests of the former. 376 ::: :IC:e 3'i 36a-- 'Were there no " great prizes," there would be n o great baits to entrap the conscience, and to_subvert the integrity of the mind. By a mote equal distri bution of the ecclesiastical revenues, the cler g y would he led to despise the respect which is derived from " capital," and, setting their affections o n higher things, to court that which is founded in reason, which arises from the exercise of talents and virtues, and which is never withheld from tilos , : of them who conscientiously discharge the duties which they a:1 profess to consider so essential in promoting the present and future happiness of man kind. _ .

THE BIBLE, WHAT IT IS, AND WHAT IT IS NOT --r This is the title given to a communication inserted in the Times on Saturday, in which that super-church journal in formed its readers that ill,. Rev. Comity Thirlwall, re cently appointqd Bi‘hop of 5... D:vid's, is the trap later of Schleiermacher's Critical Essay oa the Gospcl of St. Luke, a work of great authority, as Schleier maeher is a theologian and a scholar of the highest rc putath.n. The article further informed the public, on the united authority of Schleiermaeirer and that" the discrepancies pand in the Gospel comp,l us to admit that the biuperititcutiiug cr , otrol of the Spirit was not exerted to exernp:, the sacred writings altogether from errors and imperfections." Nay, the public are informed, on the same unexeeptionable authority, that. the rigid theory of inspiration has beer, long ab indoned on account of the d.fficultit s opposed to it, and that it will now be a waste of time to attack it. These facts and circumstances the Tina's communirates to the public, at the %cry time that the Bishop of Exeter is calling out blasphemy in the House of Peers, and calling for penalties against those who, at Man chester, attack the rigid theory of inspiration. We believe no other theologian in modern times, except Dr. Philpotts, has thought of denying that the books of the' Bible and Testament were written and handed down to and were subjict to the o n by ten G a o r d e liable. It is a far great e r crime,eursrbrys to w t m he e r n e l Z ie rC ht , to inflict pain on a human being for criticising the Bible, than to criticise it as Rekhorn, erre9sPe:rucihue lead them to conclusions very Paulus, , Strauss and others have d one , S though chleie their • Tercnt from those inc orporated i n t h at ep i tome o f all r i t t rational belief, the Thirty-nine Articles. BRITISH MATRO NS .- -We were much struck by a ' n paragtaph in the Ti mes of Friday, of expressing a hope that the Queen D owager, the might long be spared to th e nation. This is not very flattering to English ladies, considering that her Majesty is a German born and bred,; and we doubt whether she has yet attained any very extensive knowledge of our language. Another lady who has also, with at least equal propriety, been held up as a model to English ladie, is her Majesty's mother, and the Duchess of Kent is also a German. Queen Charlotte, too, for ninny years the pattern of all that is excellent, a Tory and fashionable woman, whose Court was the purest of the purt—was a German, who never acquired our tongue. Al l t h e Royal family, males and females, t;, r more than u century, with the exception of George IV. and William IV., were more German in their tastes and manners than English. Many of them could r-ot speak English. But if any family in the kingdom has an infltpuice over manners and morals, it is the Royal family ; and while the nation therefore has been modelling itself on a German family, it ha:• been ignorantly crying out against German morals, Ger man manners, and the irreligion of the Germans, The %cry Journal which holds up a Gernian . lady as a pattern for British matrons to shape their conduct by, so deprecates the most approved theology of the Germans, that it makes it an offence in an English Bi,hop that he, has translated one of the most celebrated German theo logical works. BRITISH HERRINGS.—We understand that the Bri tish herring curers have made such progress is the art of curing that delicate fish, that in roost part of Ger many British herrings are now prekrred to Dutch her rings. Such a fact may inflaence the taste at :noire, and make the Eiglish suppose that the produc e o f their own countrymen is as good as that of Mynhe:r.

REMARKABLE COINCIDENCE. —A gentleman who I.as been engaged many years in promoting researches in the science of political economy, asserts that the great law which has hitherto betti 'd the efforts of all inquirers, and which will remove & very existing obstruction, has been discovered to be the law of " Definite Proportion." This law is. he states, the s,.me which has led to such im. portant modern improve meats in the science of chemistry. - He maintains that it is on account of not applying the law of proportio ns w h en treatin g of the social operation of the producions of human labour, that the works extant on the science of poli t i ca l tconor ey present to the world such a mass of false and comtradictory matter ; that such is the power and the all-pervading propriety of this law, that its application is indispensable for acquiring a correct know. ledge of the results of the earliest and smallest number of exchanges th at ta k e p l ace amongst mankind ; as also of the greatest an d most com plicated number ; that where its h influence i s carefully o b serve d by reasoners the science is rendered simpl e and easy by c nin pre ension ; and, what is most important o f a ll, t hat the numerous subjects which was opp ose d by Mr. Nichols , on be h ri lf of Messrs. are incl u d e d w i thin the sp h ere of the science may, by the aid of the law o f ~ di finite proport ions, " be brou g h t out with the utmost prec i s i on an d w ith perfect accuracy.

S. F. Last, a respectable-looking late, was indicted for stealing fifteen hundred e eight of bristles and sundry lerieite; the property of Pietro Mavero, his master. The proSedtitof is it brtiehemaker, residing in Clerken well, meddle prisoner had liked ih his service for two years as as errand-bay, and subsequently for two years as a. apprentice. The property in que4lan was found in an open cupboard in the prosecutor's house, a p; rtion of the bri tics being wrapped up in a hand ke!ciii,t belonging to the prfeoner. 'I he prisoner was taken to Hatton garden, and there said that he had pieced the bristles in the handkerchief for the purpose of varteeing, and that-the veneers had fallen into the water, and had been placed there to dry. The Magistrate having heard the evidence, dismissed the case, and the prisoner. went back to the prosecutor. On tie next day, however, the prisoner said that lie should leave his master's service if his mistress quarrelled with him, so he accordingly went away. The master then pre aented an indictment to the Grand Jury, who found a true bill, and the prisoner was taken into custody on a Bench v arrant. The muter, on his cross-examination, admitted that he should nit have presented this bill if the hoy had not been saucy. A f 'male servant of ihe prosecutor's deposed to the prieoner's having told her in the shop that he had taken the bristles for pocket-money, as lie had not seen his mother lately. He said this in the presence of four other persons, who all told the prosecutor what had happened immediately after wards. This witness; gave her evidence for the first time, she cot having been examined either before the Magistrate or Ile Grand Jury.

Stn,—liaving read a communication from a " Lon don Butcher," wh'eh appeared in the ilforaing Adver tiser of the 31st. uit., I am induced to trouble you with the following observations in corroboration of the statements made by him, and to testify that his views of the cause of the evils complained of, are not confined to himself. To you I address this, because you are among the most powerful opponents of that law which has emphatically been termed the " Devil's Own," and be cause the journal conducted by you enjoys a circulation less exclusive than the Morning Adveitiser. The large number of butchers' shops in the metro polis at present untenanted, must to many of your readers have been a matter of mekncholy surprise. it being almost impossible to walk through London or its suburbs without being struck with this atelancholy fact. Their late tenants are now suffering the severat privations, nor are those who have succeeded in keeping their shops open, undeserving of eommisseration ; for there is probably not one who has not sustained very severe pecuniary losses during the four past years. The records of the Court for the relief of insolvent debtors satisfactorily demonstrates that the number of butchers who have sought relief through the Court during the same space, is large be yond precedent. Taut some measure must be immediately adopted by the trade to save themselves from irretrievable ruin, is manifest. Either their profits must he raised by a con siderable increase in the charge to the pubic, or they must, after tracing the cause of the scarcity of meat to its source. seek the remedy such inquiry suggests to be expedient. That after the most analytical - inquiry that can be instituted, the c•i - ase wit' be found to be those laws, which positiveiy restrict the importa tion of corn into England, thereby rendering it incum bent on toe holders of land to false as much wheat as will enable them, with some show of reason, success fully to resist the repeal of those laws, I entertain no doubt. That the cause of the high price of melt is occasioned by the insufficiency of food, this day's market testifi,:s. There were this day at Smitiifield about three thousand beasts, and about twenty-s,x thousand sheep, a sopply , dispruportioned to the demand, even if they were all good. But how stands the tact ? Why, that at least out:-third were unfit for human food ; be cativ they were lank, lean, and hu n g ry animals, which never ought. and never would have een sent to market .'or st'seral mouths if their owners bad sufficient food fatteninw. them. And that this mode of killing the golden n oose has been pi rseverial i,i for si;veral years, Smitiifi:id salesmen London butchers will not tempt to deny. The inevitable consequence is, suffi cient "good things" all. never ready, for the market is eontinu illy tilled with " plain things" which alike rob the grazier and the butcher. Waal, then, is the course to be pursued by the butchers of London ? Seriously do 1 advise them to convene an immediate public meeting of their' trade, and at once appoint a committee of inquiry, whose duty it should be to ascertain how many acres of hind, heretofore used for raising and fattening cattle, have, during the last ten or fifteen years. been converted into corn-growing land ; as also what weight of Scotch and Irish meat his- been sent to London dead during the past tour years. Every facility for expediting such in quiry will be afforded by the Anti-Corn-law Society. The result of the latter inquiry will, I sm certain, do much to awaken the inhabitants of the metropolis to a sense of their dependency on the graziers of Scotland and Ireland. It will prove to them that, but. for the supply fro,n those countries, they must have purchased their meat at fa mine prices. Let them—" the master butchers"—re member that each of the past Springs has been worse than its predecessor, and their Autumn quarters pro portionably unfavourable. Does the aspect of this day's market enco g u ad r a t at g hv e eo br h au e bt m cl ch t es o rps t r i i o on p fg e fora pr o fit a bl e AI i- I Sir t s h h is ou su ld bj n e o c t t L h :li a la v i e °lcu t l r a' o 'sc' t: . l or il rn ed you with this; Lon d on, but ? itconcerns the whole i i et t t a i h t i sa o ct o. irci seriously s Fo n its ly For s t is ) uees only in n do the Irep e lr s ainc t de he ianhnigdh o ur so price .tlan o d l f " , m eat t ing and agr i cu l tura l di str i cts.

Titus is the welfare of ' the mass sacri ficed to the aggrandizement of the landed interest. To the trade at parting do I say " Uprouse ye, my merry men." Be doing,and that quickly. Remember sour welfare is inseparably connected with the many. It the result of your inquiries should prove that while the present Corn-laws enhance the price of bread, they promise rapidly to decrease the amount of that other necessary, animal food, you will, I am sure, lose no time in declaring those laws must be i:nmediately re pealed. I am, &c. ANO HIER LONDON BUTCHER. August 3, 1640. ROBBEIIY AT THE PORTSMOUTH, PORTSEA, AND GOSI,RT BANK.—On Thursday, James William Coles, late principal clerk at the Portsmouth, Portsea, Gosport, and Saudi Hants Bank, Queen-street, Portsea, ass examined on suspicion of having committed or been concerned in the robbery of the said Bank. The evidence a iduced was voluminous, and entirely circumstantial. The Magistrates on Thursday committed the prisoner for fur.. thcr examination until Saturday, when he was again brought up and discharged from custody. ItEviEw.—The review at ‘Voolwich is post poned tilt to-morrow. The King of the 13@igians is to be present. It is intended,_ if the weather prove favourable. to have a sham fight betwixt the Foot Artillery and the Royal R,fl2s on Plumstead-common. It is also intended to have a s •contf review on Friday, when Prince Albert will be p'esent, and altogether the week will be one con tinued scene of activity in the military departments of her Majesty's service at Woolwich. CHESS.—We understand that a spirited contest has been going on since the month of F,bruary last, be tween the rou..ties of Notts and Hampshire. Two games are being played s , multatwously by the same post ; the one giving and the other takmg the move. A Mr. Newham conducts the Nottingham side, and a Mr. Wilson, the Hampshire side. The games are well advanced to their 40th move, and, we hear, with not a fraction of advantage. SUDDEN DEATH.—Mr. Jackson, clerk of the barrack department of the Royal Artillery at Woolwich, when at his dinner yesterday with his family, was asked by his wife how he liked it ? He replied, very well, and in one nionent aft rwards sunk back into his ch.dr, as if ha had fallen into a fit. Medical assistance was promptly procured, but without being of any service as on exami nation it was found he had died instants eously. SPA NISII LEGION.—We have not seen in the daily papers any account of the injunction granted by the Lord Chancellor on Friday evening, at the instance of Colonel Cumridge, of the Span i sh Auxiliary Legion, to restrain General Alava from paying over, and Mr. Com missatv Black from receiving, any portion of the 50.00 C/ now in the hands of the General, towards the liquids i n of the debt due from the Spanish G..vernment to Colonel Cumtidgc- appeared from the affidavit of Colonel Cumridgc (the application being e.e parte), that he h. d been induced, for reasons wo shad not mention, to transfer his certificate to Mr. Commissary Black for sr me paltry consideration, and that he now disputes the validity of such transfer.

ANECDOTE OF SMUGGLING.—Another device was planned by a Jew, nicknamed Huffy, who was, and possibly is still, a very active agent in all these illicit transactions. Some hundreds of tubs were prepared at Boulogne, their shape and colour being altered amid aguised by a coating of Paris plaster, studded here and there with gravel, shells, or sea-weed, so that they resembled lumps of chalk, such as are f o u n d un d e r cliffs upon th e coast of Kent. A cargo of spirits, in tubs of this description, was carried across to Dover during the night, and dropped upon the sands above low-water mark, so as to be dry when the tide receded. 7he boat then put off to sea and dis appeared; and soon after day-break .me of the smugglers, at tired in a car t er ' s ga b er di ne , w i t h a lo n g w hip h a shoulder, drove carelessly past the blockade sentinel, proceeded down across the sands, and leisurely loaded his tart with what seemed lumps of chalk, intended for burning into lime; he then laid a few pieces of real chalk over he top, drove again past the. sentinel into the fields, where the cart was unloaded in a twinkling, and the operation repeated, till every cask had been conveyed qi a place of safety. As no boat appeared in this affair, and but 0.,e person attended the cart, there was nothing in the least likely to attract attention, or to exci e the suspicion of the sentinel. The scheme accordingly succeo.led so well, that, it might have escaped detection altogether, had not the secret been entrusted to a woman One of the Dover smugglers, in the exultation of success, cOntitled their stratagem to his sweetheart, and the_ damsel in turn betrayed it to a more fa voured lover, who happened to be an officer in the Coast Block ade Service. This, of cour-e, led to a discovery and seizure of the next cargo, and two of the plassered tutis were immediately sent along the whole line of blockade, to put the offu,Qrs and sentinels npon their guard against any repetWoß of the - 'tram- UlatCa 45CIViV4 M.
