Marseilles is proud to boost that iu spite of the
system of ealimmy to which this city has her 0 ex-
posed, no repanacio is due tlus„inbabitituts. it
cannot be too often repeated, that since the expul-
sion of our oppressors, ato the is a rain set his
foot on the French soil, tat act of violence has Len
committed in Marseilles. No person has hten per-
serutsal for his o:iinitais, and ail that has been in-
serted in the newspapers, respecting pretended
troubles at Marseilles, is atrociously false. The
authors of these calumnies are pretty well know',
witalthstanding the mystery in which they ensrltp
themselves. When some farther proofs of the
schemes resorted to for misleading the Journalists
and the authorities shall be obtained, a new kiwi of
action will he instituted before the Tribunals—that
of a judicial process for the punishment of the
calimmiators of a whole town.—( Edereur Mar-

A Journal, which affects to he very well inten-
tioned, contains the following article :
Letters from
.Figneras state, that the famous
purtievn, Poke!, a native or Spain, whom Marshals
A ii!ferean, Macdonald, and Sachet employed in
the war in Catalonia, and whom the French Go-
vcrnmeot kept in its pay, has been delivered up
to the Genera of the Spanish army, who ordered
hint to he hanged. Eight of his officers and sub-
officers, who have also been delivered up, expect to
experience the same fate."

Who would not suppose tint this statement re-
Irated to one of those ordinary refugees who are en-
titled to the proteetioa of every Government when
persecuted by their own ? The frillowin* how-
ever, is the information communicated to us re-
specting this man, in favour of whom it is certainly
less wished to excite ma interest than to render
odints!. the Government that authorised delivering

most birbarous and hardened wretches he could
collect in Fralice.and Spain. At the Iteml of these
assassins there was no crime lie hesitated to com-
mit. To hang, crucify, nail to nails, and trust at
slow fires, persons of every age and sex were his or-
dinary pastimes. A part of his own family, includ-
ing his father and brother, were sacrificed by I .

EXTRACT FROM A LETTER, DATED

DOVER. DEC. 2R.
M have not had ant• arrivals from France for
some days ; the tempeatuous oeatlier and high
south slush driving all vessels that have come out

.....
of CORI. and Boulogne iuto the Dow►u. Rone,giate,

and Margate.
The French packet, with the mail of Mimilay,
got into liamsgate, sod the Lord Duncan Englo,h
packet rode out the gale ig the Downs.
A great number of transports and passage vessel-
with troops from Fnmee. have been also in great
danger, and lo.t upwards of 50 horses ; hut when
we consider the state of the weather, the Lora
being lung at sea, and many of them c.a.liaell
board 10 days before it may he well acenant.

ed for, without finding fault with the vcssui.:,
are the best adapted for.such passage that can
'ably be employed ; and when we consider that unit-
in this fortnight past, during a continued series of
bad windy and weather, 10,000 troops have been
brought over, end 2.000 carricii ov. r, with only the
loss of 50 or Go horsey, aod two men, who intro-
dently attempted to get hastily on shore in entering
liamsgate harbour, the loss is nut to be deemed as-
ioni,ltingly great.
Fe-drs were entertained that several had foundered
at sea, but it is now supposed all are arrived ; one
in particular, after sailing from Calais on the 14th
inst. and being driven to the northward, and 12
slays at sea, is now safe in Ramsgate harbour.

Yusterday a Court of Directors was held at the

MEN NItITY.

REPORT PROM THE HOUSE or COMMONS UPON
TUG STATE OF NENDICITY IN THE METlturesl.ls.

(Continued from our Paper of Yesterday.)

Mr. Thomas Davis's examination continued.
NVlnit other outgoings have you ?—There is 40
guinea:, a yeiir for my house, besides taxes ; there
is a guinea A week fur the luau that assists me, and
a shilling ever• time he goes out ; if he cannot get
home, l allow him u shilling for his lodgings. I
shimlil imagine it may stolid me in little less than
3ul. a year fur his expenses.
(lave you any other outgoings ?—We have twen-
vineas a year for four receiving-houses.
What do your horses cost you ?—I suppose, my
horses, in the winter time, when the roads are bad,
will lint stand me less than 2/. a week.
Besides their first cost ?—Yes.

Yon keep your horses in summer time likewise ?
—Yes; I have got one I would not take 30gs. for ;
hut the roads arc lighter now .than they are in
winter.
Are, your outgoings 2001. a year ?—More than
that ; tt is as much as one person can do to fetch
for them ; we dare not trust them out themselves.
You send these people out in all directions ?
To every part, according as the pass expresses ; we
take a good many out Whitechapel way.
Who attends to them at the houses in the coon-
try, to which you take them ?—The people who in-
them, working people.
By whom are they employed ?—By the contractor
the next count •; they have so much to carry
them oil.

The woman at Eghain gets twelve guineas
year ; six from you and six from the other comity ?
—She has a good deal to do for them ; I do not
know what they pay her.
Do many escape at the end of the first stage ?
Yes; no man in the world could prevent that ; in
the dark, iii the winter, they would get away unless
I stood over them with a naked sword.

Are mazy of them persons of very bad character?
—Some of theta are bad enough, certainly ; and
tome are altogether ar civil.
Have you cyer thought what the parisbex could
do to lessen their umnlrer ?-1V hen those paupers
are taken home their pan•hes bl Id take them in ;
but they often titrei tl►em oat before we have got x
receipt for them hardly.

You regard it us your hmitie.s to take every per-
son, either to the parish to which he is passed, or
else too the pest shore ou his way thither ?—Yes ;
either I or my moo.

The Ministers of Russia and Austria have ad-
dressed to the Government of the Canton of St.
Gall, the report of the conferences held at Paris on
the 21st of October, for the purpose of granting
permission to the Duchess de St. Lau, to lis her
residence in Switzerland, in the Canton of St. Gall;
they at the same time invite the Government to
consent to this measure. The Diet having taken a
general resolution relative to all the persons of the
family of Bonaparte, and the Cantons themselves
having recently decided on the subject of Madame
de St. Le• in particular, it is thought that this new
application will be submitted to the decision of the
confederate Cantons. The Duchess de St. Imu,
who lately arrived in this city, set out this morning,
taking the road to Berne.

Mr. l'hilupps IN US the Count licligeo. That the at-
tractions of this Gentleman remaitt..und. 'shed
was well testified by the fullness and respretabiltty
of the :nadir/we.

An Irish Jig. as a kind of interlude between the
play and the lame, proved very interesting. The
performers were Master and Miss Cassidy, children
tender iii years, hut mature in proficiency. They
were loudly applauded..

terised in the bills, made his " first appearance on
any striae" in Looney Mac livolier. Ile acquitted
Inniself with a gotul deal nF humour, and some ori-

the most promising of the season.

CHANCERY.
StIAILMAN tr. UUTLER.

Thi. iMportaiit cause has ►eel twice argued be-

ed in the aid of the Matter of the Itolts, Lord
Norburv, and Baum George, who have acted as
Assemors upon the Huila' during Friday and Sa-
turday last. it comet- nit again this week: The
queetioii, which comes from the Comity Kilken-
tiy, is deeply inteeesting to the I..andlOrds mid 're-
mits of Ireland, namely--
Whrther, after a leaatholil interest hay hen doily evict-
ed fir lion payment of resit, and after the SIN lle allow -
nor.: by the Statutes to the Tyamit, have elqwed, without
such redemption, it mortgage 46f the leasehold interest ,re.
deeming within the' ui..e the ntlonctl to him), shall be
taken to have so redeemed merely to the (Akio of the mort.
gage, or altogether; Sc' ac in cover the entire interest?
Or, in other words, whether the redemption by the mot t-
gaze dole or Alel. 1111 i wholly avoid and mood all the pro.
ecrdine in the ejectment; in the nature of a mere
statiiteable forfeit in e, and ii ,hiee the parties, Landlord wtd
Tenant, in their former ciliation, and 36 •if nu ejectment
loot been brouzlit ?"

la ime view of this interesting argument, the
Landlord contends, that having legally eviwed the
Tenant's interest, he is now entitled to hold it, sub-
ject only to the mortgage debt.
In another view, the Nlortgagee contends, that he
alone is entitled to the leasehold interest, the Te-
nant's right. being gone, and the Lansllnnl's for-•
feiture being raised by accepting Ins rent and costs.
in it third position, the Tenant, who has not paid
a shilling as yet, either to the Landlord or Mortga-
gee, .iiitasts that the whole proceeding must result
to his own benefit, and to the protection of his
lease—as the Londlord's forfeiture is gone, mid as
the Mortgagee, being only a tinstee for his
.Mortga-
gor..cun take no benefit but us such trustee for the
Tenant. . .

CLERK OF THE WORKS.

• Mr. DAVIS brought up the amended Report of
the Committee of General Purposes, on the sub-
ject of the situation of Clerk of the IVorks.
The original Report was read at the last Court.
—After ' tely enumerating the various duties
which the Clerk of the Works should perform, it
concluded with proposing that he should, in future,
receive a salary of 1,000/. per annum, and that he
should not demand any per centage on the work
executed tinder his superintendence. This Report
was referred back to the Committee for re-consi-
deration; and they now proposed thin the salary
should be 1,5001. per annum, hat that he should
be allowed a per ventage on the different works which
he might be called 011 to superintend. Mr. atvis
moved, " That the Report i,e agreed to ;" which
motion occasioned considerable discussion.

Messrs. Dixon, IVaith►uau, Dornforil, Jacks,
and Ilurcombe, opposed the motion. If u per
ceistage were allowed, it would, they contended,
open the door to very great abuses. It would he
much better to agree with the original Report,
which recommended a specific salary to the Clerk
of the Works, beyond which he could have no

Mr. WHITE, Mr. Sheriff BELL. and Mr. DA.•
vis, sup,iorted the amended Report.
The Loau MAYOR here interposed. Tn per-
mitting the amended Report to be brought up this
day, he had acted from the idea that it would not
give rise to any debate. As much discussion, how..
ever, had taken place, and as the subject they were
specially convened to consider would probably
create a debate of great length, 'he would call
on Gentlemen to speak but once on the present
question.
Mr. DIXON protested against the Lord Mayor,
ur any other individual, dictating to Wm whether he
should speak once or twice. .

The Loa) MAYOR did not mean to dictate ; but
as a Requisition had been put into his hands,
calling on hint to convene a Court to take • par-
ticular subject into consideration, he was anxious
that that question, which, by right, ought to have
taken prec.•dence or all others, should he discussed
as soon as pn4sible. Feeling the propriety of this,
he should take the sense or the Court on the-ad-

COURT or KING'S BENCH, DE0.14.

Siitiugs qfler Term, Guildhall, London.
lIIJOHES V. RIM

This was an action to recover 500 f. being the
penalty of a howl entered into by the Defendant
ler the following circumstances:—The Defen-
dant is proprietor of two public-houses called the
Star and Garter, soul the King's Arms, in Shore-.
ditch. The former is what is termed a wine-vault,
or gin-shop, iu which spirits are mostly sold, and
the latter was a public-house, the business of which
was principally confined to the sale of porter, ale,
and mixed liquors. The Plaintiff entered into an
arrangement for the purchase of the Star and Gar-
ter wine-vaults, and agreed to give 1,000/. for the
good-will, upon condition that the Defendant
would cuter into a bowl to return .500/. of the
1.000/. if, during nine years, he converted the
King's Head public-house, which was within
door or two of the Star and Garter, into a wine-
vault. The Der/ett:it acceded to these ternis,
executed the bond in September, 1813, and re-
ceived th/t money. In the ermine of a short time,
however, after this contract, in defiance of the bond
the apkarunee of the King's fiend was com-
pletely altered, and opened in what is universally
known as a gin-shop, thereby materially injuring
the trade for whiCh the Plaintiff had paid so hand-
s/ iniely. Those alterations were made by tenants
to whom the Defendant disposed of the house, but
as it was his duty to have guarded against such a
breach of his contract, he of course became liable
for the penalty of his bond.
Verdict for the Plaintiff—Damages, 5001.
Costs, 40s.

WATSON V. KING.

Thi• was an action brought by William IVatson,
and Anne, his wife, as administratrix of the estate
of Thomas Maxwell, to recover from the Defend-
ant the value of a ship, called the Little William,
which had come to his possession after the death of
the testator.
The foets of the case were these : Thomas Max-
well was a three-fourths owner of the vessel in
question, and in the year 1813 sailed fur Bermuda,
as master of a vessel called the Effort, in which be
had also an eighth share. From Bermuda he went
to Jamaica for freight, and sailed from thence on
the Ist of March, under convoy of the Vdianf, 74,
with a large fleet of merchantmen. On the 9th of
the same month there was u dreadful storm, in
which the fleet was almost totally dispersed, and
several vessels were known to be totally lost. On
the sante night the Isjiirt parted company in a
thick fi,g, and had never since been heard of. After
waiting a reasonable time in the fallacious hope of
her ieturu, the wife of the Plaintiff obtained let-
ters of administration of Maxwell's effects, and
among other property claimed the share of the de-
ceased in the ship in question. Upon inquiry,
However, she found the testator's shares in it had
been gold to the Defendant, of whom she instructed
he• Solicitor formally to demand their restitution.
This the Defendant thought proper to resist, and
hence the present action.
Upon the part of the Defendant, it was proved
that Maxivell indebted to a gentleman named
Ward, in the sum o:.700/. for his share in the by/art,
and on his departure from England, left a power of
attorney with Wad, impowering him to dispose of
his shares in the Little William—and in compliance
with the terms of this power, Mr. Ward soidthese
shares on the POI of June, 1814, to the Defendant.
It further appeared, that of the West India fleet
thsperied in the month of March, one of the vessels,
Millie,' the Hamilton, did not arrive till the month
of August, 1 frotn hence it was inferred that the
pn.bability was. Maxwell had outlived the *torn)
in March, and was alive on the Sth of June, when
the sale took place.
In reply it WWI contended, that it was manifest
he had perished with others during the on
the night in question, trnd as diet was the case his
power of attorney Was of' no avail.

MR. PEEL AND MR. LIDWILL.

I❑ The Correspondent of Saturday evening, we
find the following :

Dublin, Dec. 14, 1915.

Sin —I rreeive that Mr Li,l ill Lae, fr !Moself. made
the followitig addition tee statement which Mr. Lida ill nod
I, mailer sour respective signatures, bound ourselves should
be the only publication made opus, the subject of the affair
between Mr. Peel and Mr. Lidwill.

" That after at long conference between Colonel Brown
and Major lialm ill, Monad the hoar of awl) o'clock (Nov 291,
it wll9 arranged between those Gentlemen, that toy making
the following iteelaratioll :Mould terminate the affair then
rending between Mr. Peel and me.
" That I haul great satisfaction in declaring ft) Colonel
Brown that I would lw clad the cords were ohltaraated
Mr. Peel's fecolleet ion."

I feel it incumbent on me, expressly t.. disclaim any un-
derstanding on my part, that such an a. ratigettient as that
mentioned in thu above paragraph was made, tir that Pitch
a declaration could terminate the affair between Mr. Peel
mut Mr.
In the first place, it. was agreed between Major Lidwlll
and me, " that nothing which gassed is conversation, ,11..itItt
he considered as having intsst-tl, tittles% reduced to tt
and signed by u. 4 respectitely," WWII tint the case with
the arrangement :thole 11111.14 A to,.

lie the se email place, it was not in my power to close the
affair with any thing shoot of the folio...nit; apology, which
Mr Peel gave to me, n the only one be was willing to ac-
cept, and whit Ii l read to Major Lidw ill:
" Mr. I.idwill disclaims all intention of offerinz, offence to
Mr. Peel by the expressions pal dcii out 115 COIOIIO lilltsVll—
regrets that they were toted by him—nod as the repara-
tion reipiired, has no hesitation in retracting. them."
I admit that Major Lidoill and 114SCIf iliscoseed the pos-
sibility of terminating the nllair by nil apology, will. au
earnest desire on both Bides, that it might lead to aCColllniu-
datmn ; but I considered thut our mediati 111 l haring failed,
uo trnce of it remained.

I eery much rezret, that after the precautions taken by
Major Lidwill atul myself, there shun's' remain the possibi-
lity of a misconception on any point between us. The ob.
ject of this letter is not to discuss that point, lint to record,
that the declaration now psiblisha d by Mr. Lidwill, never
could be considered by Mr Peel, or myself, as sufficient to
terminate the affair between theta.

ALDRED V. HOEYWELL.

This was a qui tam action, to recover the penalty
of 501. from th,! Defendant, who is the twister of
a collier named the Brampton, for neglecting to
notify to the Coal Office his arrival ott Blackwall,
within twenty—four hours after that event, as the
Art requires.
The Illaintiff failed, however, in the legal proofs
of the Defendant's connection with the vessel in
question, and he was non-suited.
