TIVERTON ELECTION.

FIFTY! DAY.

A party has long been forming here, ;who consider that the right to
elect Members of Parliament for this Borough is vested in the in-
habitants at large, instead of being confined to the twenty_four
Members of the Corporation. Under the auspices of this party,
James Kennedy, Esq. (a barrister on the Northern Circuit) and
Mr. Anderson, an agent for G. Heath, Esq. (one of the leading
Counsel in the Insolvent Debtors' Court) arrived here on Thursday
evening, to offer themselves as Candidates, in opposition to Lord
Sandra' and the Hon Richard Ryder. On Friday (the day of
election) the Guildhall was crowded at an early hour, and the ar-
rival of the respective Candidates expected with the utmost impa-
tience. About a quarter before eleven, Mr. Kennedy and Mr. An-
derson arrived, attended by their friends, but were denied admittance
within elm bar by the constables. They, however, succeeded in get-
ting seats in the Petty Jury Box, where their appearance was wel-
comed by a tremendous shout of applause. At I I o'clock the Mayor
and Corporation entered the hall in their robes, attended by Lord
Sandon and Mr. Ryder. who were allowed to sit with them. The
precept having been read, the customary oath tendered to the
Mayor's returning officer, and the Bribery Act read, the Rev. C. 0.
Osmond proposed Lord Sandon and Mr. Ryder, and was seconded
by Mr. 0. °oven, sea. Mr. C,olesnow prepared to address the
Mayor, but was interrupted by that gentleman, and on begging for
liberty of speech for five minutes, was answered, " not twoseconds."
Ile, however, proposed Mr. Heath and Mr. Kennedy, and was se-
conded by Mr. Partridge amidst great applause. The Mayor,
however, declined to pay attention to this, and threatened to commit
the first person who spoke another wort!. The Town.cletk then
proceeded to collect the voters of the Corporation, and Mr. Par.
midge tendered the Mayor a demand in writing, signed by some of
the audience, claiming to vote as inhabitants and burgesses. This
was of course refused, and Lord Sandon and Mr. Ryder declared
duly and unanimously elected, who severally addressed the Corpo-
ration in short speeches, thanking them for their continued support.
On the breaking up of the assembly, Mr. Kennedy was attended to
Mr. Partridge's by several hundred people, whence he addressed
them, statitg his determination to petition the House of Commons
against the return, and that neither money nor assiduity should be
wanting to support their claims.

HORTICULTURAL DINNER.

The Members of the Brighton and Sussex Horticultural Society
held their ant iversary dinner, on Saturday IR-St at the Old Ship.
The show of fruit on this occasion excelled in quality, though not
perhaps In quantity, that of any former year. The pines and me-
lons were of the must exquisite flavour, nod the grapes were thought
never to have been excelled in variety and quality, at any show of
this nature in the kingdom. They consisted of the Muscadine,
the ',Muscat of Alexandria, the Black Tripoli, the Black Ham-
burgh, the Black Prince, NParner's Ilainburgli, the Black July, ;the
Sweet-water, the l'oonah, the Kiswish, and the Dcthana.
In delivering the prizes, Mr. PHILLIPS, the Chairman, nb.
served, that it was a proud day fur Brighton, when he had the
Ilatisfaction to find that ha Horticulturists had already surpassed all
competitors in the culture of the grape, both Mr the size of the
hunch and the flavour of the berry. In presenting the premium to
I Mr. Dilburd, of the Steyne Hotel, for the best bunch of black
grapes, he could not retain from complimenting both that genth.
man and his gardener, for the perfection in which the fruit had
been grown, and holding up the bunch, which weighed 41b. 20z.,
he remarked that the cluster was not unworthy of Bacchus him.
self, and with such grapes as those the Steyne Hotel would never
r quire a bush. Mr. Phillips took occasion to dwell on the muni-
ficent couduct of the Lord Identenantiof the County to the town of
Brighton, and next adverted to the deaths of two highly.esteemed
members, the late Earl of Chichester and Mr. Ironmonger. The
Hornier had not only encouraged the Society by the sanction of hi*
name, but had contributed fruit to their dessert and venison to their
dinner, besides adding consequence to their party by his presence.
Dr. RONALDS rose, and gave " The Athenaeum and Oriental
Gaidens." And, what with good toasts, and plenty of them, and
goi'd wire too, the company passed their time iu very good humour,
and parted, we hope to meet again as pleasantly next year.

BOW BELLS.

A few mornings ago the family of Mr. Aughtie, in
Cheapside, were awakened by a tremendous crash, as if
the upper part of the house had fallen in. They found
that a stone of nearly one hundred weight had fallen from
the upper cornice of the tower, anti broken in the roof. It
had hit some of the projecting cornices of the tower, by
which its force was broken, and it had fallen lengthways,
or it is probable that it would have gone through the two
floors below the attic where it stuck, and might have occa-
sioned the loss of lives. Mr. Gwilt, the architect, was
sent for by the parish officers, to examine and report as to
the cause of the accident. This Gentleman has, we learn,
reported that the stone has most probably been detached
by the vibration of the tower, caused by the ringing of the
bells, and that the effects of this practice are manifested
by large cracks in the plaqering of the belfry walls, which
were p!asteresl over in 1822. %Viten in 1816 the spite
was found to have lost its perpendicularity, it was con.
*eeived that the mischief was caused by the ringing,
Mr. Genic, however, ascertained that although the split-
ting of the tower might be attributed to that cause.
yet the deviation of the spire to that position was
caused by the injudicious use of wrought iron in
its construction. The expansion of the metal by
oxidation, hail, he found, actually " spelled" or split
solid blocks of stone, and partially lifted up the obelisk
from its perpendicular station. This, with the tremendous
shaking the whole had undergone from the incessant ring-
ing of the heaviest peal in the city, rendered its repair ab-
solutely necessary, and little doubt was entertained that,
had it fleet' delayed, the steeple would, in no great length
of time, have fallen. The architect, on the completion of
the repairs of the spire, expressed his opinion to the parish
officers, that it would not be prudent to ring the bells. In
the report he has made on the present occasion, he states it
as Lis firm conviction, that the part of the steeple front
which the stonß fell never was strong enough for the ori-
ginal peal of bells, previously to 1762. Even if it had
been constructed with sound masonry, which he de-
clares most decidedly it never was, the subsecitibnt ad-
dition of two bells, weighing upwards of a ton, was
not calculated to improve it. The effect of a peal of ten
bells upon such a steeple may be conceived, from *he
fact which this gentleman ascertained from actual experi-
ment, that the smallest bell, which weighs eight hundred
weight, shakes it from the top to the very foundation.
The largest of the ten bells is upwanls of two tons and o
half in weight. The only rival peal in the metropolis, as
to the number and quality, is the peal of St. Saviour's.
The silence of Bow Bells will be felc by every body in the
! City, by all professors of campanology, and by every in.
dividual who .has heard the wretched tin-kettle-sounding
pieces of metal girzu in SOWC of the Hew chutelles fut
bells.

SINGULAR ('ASE OF AFFILIATION.

following is the substance had been living with the defend-
ant, who is married to her sister, in the capacity of lunmekceper or
assistant. Notwithstanding their close affinity, defendant often
made improper overtures to her, all of which she rejected ; and in
consequence of the disappointment which he thus experienced,
frequent quarrels took place between them; and at length, in the
August of 1825, defendant turned her cut of the house. item that
time until the 17th of September foliowirg, she had not seen hitt%
On the evening of that day he met her in Cray's Inn-lace, and
spoke so softly and kindly to her that she was induced to make up
the quarrel. They went to the Gripes public-house, where he

court, where the intercourse took place of which this child was the
produce. It was never repeated, btu witness not having had cont.
munication with any other man, was enabled to sacur that de-
fendant was the father oilier child.
Ott these grounds the !wish felt themselves justified in summon-
ing the defendant before the Magistrates, to slow cause why an
order of maintenance should cot be made out.
Mr. HARMER, on his behalt, the truth of this statement
in lo!o, and said he should be enabled to prove, by the most incur).
legible evidence, that this was a conspiracy got up between the
woman and a young man cf the name of Wright, e butcher, ber

B. A. GOLDScIIMIDT AND ca

we feel sincere sorrow in announcing the failure of one
of the most eminent mercantile houses in the City, Messrs.
B. A. Goldschmidt and Co., of Great St. Helen's, Bishop-
gate-street. They were also great foreign loan contrac-
tors. The following are the loans negotiated by this em-
inent house :—Danish 5 per Cent. (paid of by the new 3
per Cents) ; Mexican 5 per Cent. Stock; Colombian 6 per
Cents; and Portuguese 5 per Cents.
IVe may truly say that few failures that could have
happened would be more severely felt in every quarter of
the globe. Their connexions with North and South Ame-
rica, and with every part of the Continent of Europe, were
most extensive ; indeed, we know of no branch of traffic
where the baneful effect of this misfortune will not be ge-
nerally apparent, if we except the East India trade, with
which, we believe, the firm had little or nothing to do.
As to the situation of the affairs of Messrs. B. A. Goll-
achmith and Co., their engagements are so extensive
that it becomes impossible to make a calculation of the
sum for which they are liable ; but we believe it is an
ascertained fact that the house was worth, in the early
part of last year, (taking the public sureties at the value of
the day) at least one million and a half sterling. This is
the great house to which we yesterday alluded in the fall
of 10 per cent. in South American Stocks, and the cause
of the four failures of eminent brokers. On the Foreign
Stock Exchange there was no negotiation of foreign bills
yesterday, and the public mind was fully prepared for
the shock of this morning. Immediately on the report
of the failure, merchants and others connected with the
establishment hurried to public coffee-houses to ascertain
the fact; and the Royal Exchange became as crowded as
at the usual hour of the merchants assembling at what is
termed " high 'Change."
It is necessary, on such an occurrence, to say a word as
to the holders of the stock of loans for which Messrs.
Goldschinidt were contractors. The real security of these
loans cannot be at all affected by the event. If Messrs.
Goltlaahmidt had continued solvent, they could not have
paid the dividends unless funds were remitted ; and, if Ike
governments remit these funds, the dividends can just as
well be paid through any other house as by that of these
merchants.

schnaidt and Co.'s house for a short period, rctired from
business about a year ago with a fortune of 100,000/.—

Domus et Omens uror."—lloa.
Thy house, and (in the cup of life,
That honey-drop) thy pleasing wife.
lIAPPINESS, " the gay to-morrow of the mind," is
insured by marriage ; " the strictest tie of perpetual friend-
ship" is a gift from Dairen, cementing pleasure with reason, by
which, says Johnson, " we approach in some degree of association
with celestial intelligence."
Previous, „however, to entering Into this hallowed obligation, it
becomes an imperative duty not only to regulate the passions but to
cleanse the grosser nature front those impurities which the freedom
of unrestricted pleasure may have entailed upon It. To the neglect
of each attention are atuibutable many of those hapless instances,
which, while they excite the commiseration of the beholder, should
also impress him with the fear of self-reproach.
Luxurious babas will effeminiae the body—a residence in the
tropics will relax the elastic fibre—but more especially does the
premature infatuation of youth too frequently compromise the na-
tural dignity into a state of inanition, from which the agonised suf.
fever more than doubts the chance of relief. To all such, then, we
addrsve curatives, offering hope, energy, muscular Itrength, felicity;
nor will our advances appear questionable, sanctioned as they are
by the multiplied proofs of twenty years' successful experieuce.
The easy cares of merriest life are sometimes disturbed by the
me
suspension of those blessings which concentrate the nuptial wreath
—fur the female habit is often consfltutiortally weak—yet it can be
strengthened, and deficient energy improved into functional powers.
Earnestly solicitous to expel the unfeeling empiric from the posi-
tion so presumptuously taken up, we deviate from general princi-
ples with less hesitation; and confident in our own honourable
integrity as Members of the College of Surgeons, we refer the suf.
fering community of either sex (especially those entering into matri-
monist life) at once to our house, where daily attendance is given
for personal coasultation ; and letters from the country are Mime-
thately answered: these must contain a remittance for advice and
medicine, which can be forwarded to any part of the world, how.
ever distant. GOSS and CO., 91.11. C. Surgeons,

on credit. 1
t'ross-examined by*Mr. t: lINEY.—I did not ask Oshome what'

and I did not say I would not trust him because Osborne said that
he Ras atklieted to drinking and was a disciple of Tom Paine I

amount Miller asked me to give him credit. A conversation did

necessary I should refuse him credit, in order that he might be

William Cohen, shaman to the last witness, also swore to the
words spoken by Osborne, and in addition to the account given..ll-

and was ha the habit of ge.tting drunk and quarrelling.

contended that the words were not productive of any mischief to the

THE BOAR of the CAPE; or, the FORTUNATE
EM BE LI.ISH 31 ENT.
There is a wild boar at the Cape of Good Hope
With whom if by choice or by chance you should cope,
Take care of your legs—for these first arc his prey ;
Aware without legs that you can't run away V,
Inclin'd on a settler this prowler to feed,
The stranger was put to his uttermost speed
The wild waste athwart, but the hoar faster ran.
And nearer still drew to the terrified man,
Exhausted who tell, and awaited his doom—
A horrible death in vitality's tomb !
Instinctively taught first to maim, and then slay,
The resolute savage now rushed on his prey;
But suddenly staid his ferocious pursuits,
Subdued by his shade in the settler's bright boots.
Some observing Hottentots now raise the cry—
" save legs, safe idea, up massa and fly !"
When rod from his stupor, and conscious of grace,
The settler now wing'd o'er the desart his pace ;
The boar in his rear, bnt of wrath all unstrung,
And foll`wing in tancy the friend of its young !
And thus was the curious adventure sustain'tl,
'Till harbour and safety the party soon gained;
Which receding fast from the dwellings of man,
The boar to his haunts unmolestedly
"'Twos Warren's Jet Blacking that ended the strife,"
The settler exclainfd, " and has saved thus my life !"
And Warren's Jet Blacking, now liaird as Os swan
Of safety, was shouted with rapt'rous applause .
