THE EING r. PEARSON.

The defendant had been convicted of attempting to seduce his
.Majesty's of of the Excise to a dereliction of their tbity. The
defendant was this day bought up to receive the judgment of the
Coon.

Mr. HOLT spoke in mitigation of punishment.
Dlr. Juttice Bart r r addressed the defendant, and obserwd that
the offence of which he had been convicted was a very bad one, in-
asmuch as, if it had succeeded, it would havo exposed the Revenue
officers to very severe penalties. It did not appear, however, that
his offence was premeditated. The judgment of the Court there-
fore was, that he should be confined in his Majesty's gaol at Hor-
sham for the apace of two calendar months, and that he should be
in the custody of the 3larshal of the Narshalsea in execution of the
sentence.

ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE.

In the comae of yesterday morning a tall decent-looking yelling
woman, who gave her name Sarah Dibbins, was brought into the
Union hall office, 'wring made an attempt to destroy herself the
preceding night in the Croydon canal.
From the statement of a man named Heddy, who is employed
as a watchman near the canal, it appeared that about twelve o'clock
the night before, while on duty, he heard a noise in the water, and
on proceeding with haste to the banks he saw the female present
struggling in the canal, which was upwards of fifteen feet in depth
where she had thrown herself in. Reddy, with great difficulty,
and at the risk of his own life, plunged in after her, anti succeeded
in saving her just as she was sinking. He then conveyed her in a
state of insensibility to his house, where by the assiduities of him-
self and his wife they restored her, and now brought her before a
Magistrate to see what could be done for her.
During the above statement the unfortunate woman was one-
, wbelmed in tears, and repeatedly expressed her gratitude to the
watchman, who had feared her from destruction.
Mr. CHAMBERS having pointed out to her the great sin she was
about to commit in the face of the Almighty, asked her what could
have induced her to make an attempt upon her own life ? She
replied that it was in consequence of distress, having been for some
I days without food or the means of procuring it. She had recently
left a family at Cheltenham with whom she lived as cook. The
family having gone abroad she was unable to obtain a situation at
that place, and came to London, where also failing in her endesvoura
to get bread, and being in debt at her lodgings, her mind, she said,
became worked up to a fit of frenzy, in the hsight of which site had
wandered from Knightsbridge to the Croydon canal, and plunged
into it as described by the watchman who had saved her. She was
now heartily sorry fur what she had done, and assured the Magis-
trate she wculd never attempt the like again.
Mr. CHAMI:Ess said that great credit was due to Heddy for his
exertions on the occasion. The Magistrate then wrote a letter to
the Secretary of the Society far the Refuge of the Destitute, stating
the above circumstances, and recommending the bearer of it as an
object of the charity. Another letter was also addressed to the
Hugel Humane Society, describing Heddy's exertions in raring the
life of a fellow-creature.

INDIA.

[From the Sapplcment to the Calcutta Gocerounext Gazette of
January 3.)
Private letters from Rangoon of the 17th say, that the
enemy's loss has been very great. The Chuekia Woonghee,
one of the Ministers, was killed in the attack upon Kemmen-
dine ; and 3leela-Woon, next in command to flundula, fell into
our hands, mortally wounded, on the Mb. This man was also
Minister to the King's only daughter, and married to a niece of
hen. Several others of minor note had also fallen in the late en-

gagement.
Prisoners and deserters state, that the General and Minister,
Muunshooeta, had arrived, at no great distance, with powers to en-
ter upon a negotiation for peace, on the 3d of the ensuing moan,
should the result of the engagement prove unfavourable to the Bur-
mese arms.

VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, TUESDAY, JULY 11

SIR 0. RICH V. THE GAS LIGHT ANT) COME COMPANY.
Our readers will remember that in this cue Sir George Rich
wrote to a Mr. Pedder, Secretary and Treasurer to the defendants,
commissioning him to buy him 26 shares ia that Company. Rut it
appeared that either by accident, or some other cruse, the calls of the
Company were not paid by Pedder, although the money had been
remitted to him by the plaintiff; the shares had been forfeited, and
the plaintiff had row filed a bill to restrain the sale of those shares.
I The question at issue is, whether Pedder acted as the agent of the
plaintiff or defendants.
His HONOUR this morning, delivered his judgment. He was
mast decidedly of opinion that the letters prnductd in Court
showed upon the face of them a correspondence as between prin-
cipal and ;lout. Sir George Rich, in one of them expressly directed
IPedder to purchase twenty-six shares for him, and that in such ex.
pressions as showed him to he his agent, and not that of the Corn-
; pany. If therefore Pedder did not buy the twenty-six shares, Sir
G. Rich unfortunately must suffer for his misconduct.
fflr. NORTON asked whether it was to be with costs. His
Honour certainly, notwithstanding the hardship of the case, could
not grant costs.
The Hill was accordingly dismissed without costs.

GENERAL CANICIDE AT PARIS.

Nothing is more simple or more reasonable than to este-
: blish severe regulations against the itomenae number of
prowling dogs which infest our capital, to the great danger
of the citizens lives. It was then wise to order, in the
first place, as has beets already done, that every dog hav-
ing a master should be muzzled or led in a leash, on pe-
nalty that those who should neglect that precaution should
see them poisoned. It was also useful to have dogs wan-
dering about the streets taken up, but the execution of this
measure has given rise to the most revolting abuses. The
Police Unstained the idea of letting loose in the streets of
Paris a band of individueds charged with the extermination
of dogs. A premium of if. Soc. per head, cn each head
delivered, is granted to these new agents; a species of
jnstice-room how been made, where the victims arc con-
ducted and strangled by a machine, the lever of which is
put in motion by a girl of 12 or 13. But the Police might
have foreseen (if to foresee is their duty) that among people
of that class excesses were to be feared ; and, in tact, its
order to increase their profits, they have carried their itn-
pudenee and audacity hevend all idea. They impudently
seise dogs muzzled unfit r their master's eye, and at the
shop doors, sometimes by surprise and sometimss by main
force, if no other than fi mate protection was at hand. 'f he
insolence of one was carried so far as to cut the string in
which the dog was following his master.
One fellow put in use in la rue Mazirine a running
knot, which he threw round the neck of a beautiful dog
belonging to a butcher, whose shop he was minding. The
dog was extremely powerful, and resisted; his -howling'
brought his master into the shop, who, being armed,
would in donbt hare punished the fellow bad be not ran
away. The insolence of these dog-killers arrived at last at
such a point, that on Friday last a general hue and cry
was raised against them, and the people declared war
ag. Ind them, pursued, and took several. One of them
took refuge at a straw-hat manufacturer's, and his
pursuers were so exasperated against him that ten
or twelve gendarmes were barely sufficient to shield
him from their rage. Some owners of dogs walk
abets' with a drawn knife in one hand and the dog
in a leash in the other; others less determined have
been put tinder contribution by the dog-killers, at the rate
of So sons per head. Scenes of the same kind have taken
place to-day ; it is positively said, that near the Luzern-
'hours an of was walking with his dog is a leash, when
a killer had the autlicity to cut the string and seize the dos.
The officer immediately drew his sword, anti laid the mt.
suable wretch dead at his feet. It is hardly conceivable
how the police of a capital can be cohducted with such a
mixture of violence and incapacity. A useful measure is
adopted for the safety of the citizens, and it seems it can.
nut be executed without opening a door to oppressions, the
result of which may be as fatal as the evil sought to be re-
tuedied.—Custrrier Francais. •

GENTLEMAWLY SPORTS.

On Monday morning, as early as four o'clock, a barouche, drawn
by four blood !torso. and driven by postilions, was observed coming
in the direction from 4tigeware at a very rapid pace. In the
harouche were seated three or four young gentlemen of very dash-
ing appearance, who alighted near the Southampton toll-gate and
collected a Vag quantity of stones, which they took with them into
the carriage, which was instantly driven off with amazing rapidity,
and had nor travelled many yards before the gentlemen in the car-
riage commenced an attack with their missiles upon every lamp and
window that a stone could reach. They continued this along the
whole line of road. and were pursued by the watchmen and others
fur a considerable distance, but when any of their pursuers gainett
upon them they turned and pelted them with such effect that many
persons received severe cuts and contusions. The barouche con-
tinued its course down Park-lane, through Piccadilly, and it was
stated was afterwards seen crossing Westminster-bridge into
Surrey. The parish of .Vary-la-bonne have offered a large reward
fur tl,e discovery of the persons concerned in this scandalous and
mischievous transaction.

As a reward has been offered, these gentlemen, we should think,
mast be soon forthcoming, for as it does not appear that the
postilions took any pat t in this low-lived frolic of their betters, they
can have no interest in skreening the offenders. The amusement
which was chosen for pastime upon this occasion is something
betwixt the vocation of the pickpocket and the assassin. They had
not perhaps money enough in their pockets to pay for the damage
of which they were guilty ; and it is beyond a doubt that no one of
them would havethe manly courage to place himself within reach of
of the horsewhip of any of those whole: property and repose he so
wantonly invaded.

" In spi,e of the obstinacy of Olaneta, his duplicity. and extras
ordinary effort*, the moral force of Upper Peru has displayed its
irresistible impulse. Titis section of America which, placed in the
vanguard of those who proclaimed liberty, appeared by its heroic
attempts to be destined to effect the triumph of our country, has
been the last to see it established on its soil. Its illustrious sons
only awaited the approach of the liberating army to repeal the
vow which they pronounced in the year ten. The enemy's
chiefs. dazzled by the splendour of the victory of Ayacucho, saw
behind them the immense abyss in which they were about to be
' buried, and living their eyes on their country, found the safety and
the consolation which was denied them tinder the tyrannic power
' they supported. The soldiers, changing front, have saluted with
the tenderness of the instinct of the heart that liberty which they'
bad combated against Their will. All have attached themselves and
sworn to it for ever. (Mande, wandering with 4O men, who will

THE nun,: OF ORLEANS.

The following curious characteristics of this Prince are
related in a private letter from Paris of the 4th inst.:—
" Every body knows that the Duke is excessively rich, but i: ii
not generally known that he is his own steward and accountant.
Ile knows his receipts and expenditure to a centime. If he
lie superintends, and ascertains the cost of the materials.
Where lie farms, he is his own chapman. lie cuts no grass to
make hay because be might have idle fellows who would make two
days work of one, and the hay might be wasted. He therefore
goes into his fields with those who wish to purchase, and sells the
grass as it stands, so that all the expense of converting It into hay,
and of its removal, falls upon the purchaser. Ile then calculator
how much bay his horses ought to eat in n year, and purchases at
the best rate to that extent. Ile does the same also with his core.
Then the Duke has no kitchen, and consequently no emits. Deis
supplied by a traiteur at so much per dish; and here he is so econo-
mical in the prices, that one tratettr has, it is said in Paris, failed-
by the undertaking. What is left at the Duke's table belongs to
the traiteur, who supplies the upper servants with it at so much
per head ; and what is left there goes on thesame principle to the
lower servanus—for all are upon board wages. The Duchess is
equally careful in her way ; and thus the enormous fortune of the
Duke becomes daily more considerable."

COLONEL BERKELEY.

CffettExtiese, Maiten 14.
All Cheltenham are set together by the ears to-day, from the
circumstance of Colonel B—'s calling upon the Editor of the Mg-
'trauma Journal, to whom he is said to have given as severe a horse-
whipping as perhaps any man ever received. You are doubtless
aware that the Cheltenham Journal has of late spoken freely and
anequivocally of the actidna and character of that gentleman, and
particularly of a late ball, which seems to have aroused the indig.
nation of the Gallant Colonel. The Editor's name is Mr. Judge.
This affair took place about three o'clock.
filaucx 15.
The gross outrage of which I sent pal the heads yesterday has
excited the public interest in an unprecedented degree. It was ru-
moured about, till a late hour last evening, that Mr. Judge was
considered in danger in consequence of the severe blows he received
on the head. I am, however, happy to state, that his professional
attendants now pronounce trim out of danger, and it in hoped he
will do well. An examination of this affair is expected to take
place before the Magistrates to-morrow, when no doubt respettable
bail will be required, and the parties bound over to answer the as-
sault at the Sessions. The following is a copy of a hand.bill that
has just been issued:—
DIABOLICAL OUTRAGE I
" Whereas, yesterday afternoon, about three o'clock. two fellows,
in the garb of gentlemen, in company with • William Fitzhardinge
Berkeley,' commonly called • Colonel Berkeley,' did enter the resi-
dence or the Editor of the Cheltenham Journal, in Northfield-place,
in this town, and there and then, without any provocation, did com-
mit a most gross, atrocious, brutal, and unmanly outrage upon the
person of the said Editor. A handsome reward is hereby offered
by the Proprietors of the Cheltenham Jove air! to any person or per-
sons vim will furnish the names of the said party, at the Journal
Office, in order that the miscreants may be brought to justice.

CORN EXCHANGE, MONDAY, Jaw. 24.
The supply fresh up today of 91111411 In general, as likewise
Flour, wu very extensive. Samples of superfine Wheat were
scarce, and sold on terms quite equal to bat Monday ; whilst there
were abundance of middling and inferior samples, which it wa
impossible to find buyers for, unless at lower prices than last 510n-
day. With the eiception of a few sales of superfine Malting he,
ley, at much the same prices as last week. the general runs barely
supported last Monday's rates, whilst the inferior must be qhmea
Is. to 2s. per quarter cheaper. The Oat trade was very heart, red
prices of this clay week were scarcely obtainable, even for the beer
samples. There was nu material variation in prices of Beans red
Peas, but each article was heavy sale. Rapeseed and Linseed cu_
tinue very dull sale, and the latter was cheaper. Notwithstanding:he
second week's average prices of Barley was dls. per quarter; get
it still remains very doubtful whether the porta will or will not Open,
for this article next month.
