COURT OF RING'S BENCH, TrzsoAY, MAY 30.

The Court was occupied until three o'clock in herring arguments
on special cases, which were of no public importauce whittler.

TIIE BOIOVGII OT. MON MOU TH.

)Ir. TArwrow moved for a rule to thew cause why a manda-
mus should not issue, directed to John Hughes and Charles Heath,
a printer of Monmouth, who had assumed to themselves the fune-
tidos of Mayor and one of the Bailiffs of that borough; and also to
John Jones and Clint les Williams, who had assumed to themselves
the office of Mace-burets ; commanding them to deliver up to the
real Mayor and the real mace-bearcrs. the Corporation books, paper.,
records, the common seal, the key of the corporation cheat, and the
maces of the borough of :Monmouth. The Learned Colloid stated
that this borough had long been distracted by the party feuds
of a number of persons, who Billed themselves the " inde-
pendent Party," and as there were now two sets of officers
exercising the functions of Mayor and Bailin, in the town
of Monmouth. it was highly desirable that the present state
of things should be put an and to. The last Mayor having
been mated by a qao warrant°, a mandamus issued last Easter
Term, comneandlog the Corporation to proceed under the Statute
to the election of a new Mayor, two Bailiffs, and a Coroner,
sdt titr old ones baying been ousted. The ejection was fixed for the
27th of Apia ; attl accordingly when the gentlemen under whom
the tuna fide Mayor. Dr. Bevan, was elected, went into the Crown
Court, for the porpose of obeying the mandamus, they found to
ebeir astonishment that a Mr. Ilesrkiali Swift was seated in the
place which the presiding officer ought to occupy. They attempted
to enter, huts tumult ensued ; force was used against them, anti
finally, they were obliged to proceed to the election of the present
bonatfide officers in the Civil Court, at the other end of the Guild-
hall. In the interim, the independent par.), pretended t 3 elect
the persons against whom the present application was made, to the
Wets of 3layor, Bailiff, and Mace-bearers. There was nut the
ifillitielt pretence for their Instating on the validity of that election.

STATUE OF NA POI, VON BY CANOp4.

TO THE EDITOR OF TIIE BRITISH PRESS.
Si s,-1 dare 53y a great many of your readers are igs
norant of the existence of a stews of NalMlerm, .one
the beq works of Canova, and which is now in chic
country. Perhaps you will think the following extract
from Memoirs (If Canova,. by Melon, not unworthy of in-
sertion :
The colossal statue of Napoleon, though, as regards the
countenance, the portrait of art individual, strictly below, to the
heroic and ideal class. Like the ancient toasters of the world, the
former Ruler of France and of Italy is represented
tr as Ti,he,
military Ninny. bring erely pendsot trot his left 117111: Tti
elevated above the bead in • graceful curve, the hand grasping ,
long sce_ptre, while the right supports a globe surmounted by e
winged Victory, the symbol of empire, at; borne by the Ofyrupim-
Joyner Phidias. " Napoleon," remarks an Italian wt.*
thus sculptured by Canova, was presented to the flrffish Goren!.
meat by the French King. It was curious to see the statue of that formidable man, who,• to the moment whorite ceased to reign, hat)
kept these two renowned and powerful nations in open war,•ta ,
become a pledge of mutual concord, ,solely because the work
of
the tirst artist of the age." There is the aarne of the boa,
welter (Paravia), in • note to. this passage, which also suit
us
that "this statue was subsequently presented by tionsownent to
the Dula of Wellington, to whose house in Piccadilly it nee
stands, below a stair, where it not only cannot be seen to Elio.
vantage, but where it is exposed to all manner of accidents."
If this statement be correct, would it not be desirable
that such a work, executed by one extraordinary man Le
perpetuate the memory of another, as celebrated as Lim.,
self, should be more securely placed? And if en, is it hot
also desirable that such a work should form one of the
ornaments of the British National Gallery?

ESCAPE OF A PRISONER..

This morning, as John Woodrow, a prisoner for debt, in the cus-
tody of the keeper of Whitccross-street prison, was being conveyed
to the Court, to be heard on his petition, he contrived to elude the
vigilance of his conductor, and got clear off.
Mr. HEATH appeared to oppose the prisoner's discharge, but
his name was struck from the cause paper for not appearing.
We heard that the fugitive was charged in custody upon a debt
of considerable amount.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, MAT 30.

Mr. Francis Wright, late of 3largate, lodging-house-keeper, was
opposed by Mr. R. Collard, the holder of a bill of exchange for
301. bearing the name of the insolvent.
The opposing creditor stated, that a short time before the failure
of the petitioner lie was solicited by him to discount a bill for 301.,
drawn upon and accepted by a person named Doland. Before wit-
ness compljed,he inquired as to the character and circumstances of
Doland, and received in answer that he was a person of property,
and had an annuity which he paid to his (insolvent's) wife ; indeed,
he was assured that the bill was as good as the Bank of England.
Upon these representations complainant was induced to advance
the money for the bill, taking nothing for discount. Before or
about the time the bill became due, both the insolvent and Doland
failed, and hence lie had been defrauded of his money, by means
which he considered more culpable than highway robbery.
In his cross-examination by Mr. ii EAT u, the opposing creditor
said that he nad known the insolvent many years, and as he be-
lieved him to be an honest man, he did not make any further in-
quiry as to Doland, the acceptor of the bill. Ile could not help
expressing it as his opinion, that both the parties had leagued
together to defraud witness out of his property. Ile had since
heard that Doland was a bankrupt, and consned in the King's
Bench prison. The insolvent was called upon to explain this
transaction, and contradict, If he could, the testimony which thus
militated against hint. Ile stated that Mr. Doland was his brother
by marriage, and had been many years a respectable army clothier
in Soho. Previous to this transaction they had been in the habit of
mutually accommodating each other by bills, but up to the period
' that the one was given to Mr. Collard, they had been regularly pro-
vided for. With respect to his wife's annuity, the representation he
made to Mr. Collard was quite correct —The insolvent frequently
conducted himself with great irritability of temper, and was more
than once reprimanded by the Court.
Upon reference to the schedule, it appeared that the insolvent
hail omitted to set forth the annuity alleged to be bequeathed to his
wife, by her father's will ; he was therefore ordered to be remanded
until lie produced all the documents relating to the said bequest.

CORONER'S INQUEST.

On Saturday night la•t an inquisition was held at the workhou—
of St. Olave's, 14outhwark, before T. Shelton, Esq. Efrouer, o::
view of the bodies of James Brown, John Wright, ar.d Edward
Palmer, three men who met their deaths in the following dread:d
manner

The Jury having been sworn in the usual way, they went w;ti
the Coroner to view the bodice. They were lying in the bone-hog...and owing to the extreme beat of the weather they were in such a
elcconiffnicd state that it was impossible to identify their feature,,
and the only thing the witnesses could recognise them by was elicit
clothes.
Daniel Geary stated that he was one of the men engaged in the
erection of the New London Bridge; the two dee.m men, la..
Brown and John Wright, were also employed in the work.. 03
Thursday morning a barge, loaded with stone that was unilla in
the building, got fixed between the starlings, anti fearing that at
the return of the tide they would be unable to extricate her, orders
were given to raise her out by meant; of a crane. Witnens, the leo
deceased pennons above named, and many oilier!, were engaged .1
working the crane. The two deceased were working as mates. meta
all of a sudden, when the barge wan nearly hauled tip, the 'PT
rope that secured the crane broke, and all the tackle fell, and mate.
of the labourers were thrown overboard. Ropes were instan.j
thrown out to the assistance of the sufferers, and boats were Tv
off front the various vessels in the pool, and every endeaetv
used to save the individuals ; yet, nntwithstanding, only live evert
picked up ; the other two, Brown and Wright, at the moment k
boat wan about to reach them, were engulphed in one of the whin.
pools that are so prevalent below bridge, and met with a wwta
grave. The other deceased. Palmer, had got on board one of the
Alaidetone boys lying off Topping's wharf to see an old ehiprore,
and seeing the men struggling in the water, wan about to put offn
their assistance ; when standing near the rudder, the tide runnina
so strong, the rudder turned round with such force that the Lau;
struck him in the stomach, and he was capsized into the pool, oil
shared the fate of the other two. Boats vent out instantly dogging
for the bodies, and after a tedious search the unfortunate men were
picked up at a very considerable distance from where they were
Wi!ness was confident that the melonehely death osi't
deceased persons were caused entirely by accident. Two of shun
have left widows and families.
Other wilbeenew deposed to the same affect, and the Jury et.
turned a verdict of " Accidental heath." •

BRAZIL.

We continue the publication of the Constitution of
&aril. In doing so, we must remind the public that this
rot a new Act; it is not a mem-lire taken in consequence
ut tht news of the death of King John of Portugal, as
sor:e appear to have itiagimd it ig not a mca,nre adopted
to ,t,eure the popularity of the. Emperor, on account of the
discontents arising frorq the Mows Ayr..3te war. We
'publish it to do away with the 7routnliea prejudices which
done donrnals have ettemptcd to instil ii;to the public mind
rettpecting this ally of the British nation, who may have
done wrong for aught that we know, but who certainly
has not that enmity 'to liberty by which be has been sup-
posed to be actuated. This Constitution is farther valuable,
as forming the basis upon which the new Portuguese Con-
stitution is probably founded.

HALL'S DIGESTII'E or DINNER PILLS.—Of
all the complaints to which the human frame is liable, few
ere more distressing, and none are more common, than a disordered
state of the stomach, arising from weakness or derangement in the
digestive organs, and attended with flatulence, acidity, pains in the
stomach, giddiness, head-ache, and heartburn. To remove these
painful eats where they exist, and to prevent their recurrence, by
airing renewed vigour and a healthy tone to the digestive power',
is the express down of the above pills ; and experience has abun-
dantly proved that they are eminently calculated to produce these
imp malt results. By taking them a short time before the hour of
ii!e process of digewinn is greatly assisted, and by the GC..
casianal use of them, the system will be preserved in a sound and
healthy state.
As preventives of those severe bilious attacks to which some
persons are liable, these pills are decidedly recommended, and as en
erectus!, though gentle aperient, they will ever prove a most va-
luable family wilicine. They have also been highly useful to
persons on long voyages, and experiencing a ch.inge of climate;
and as they do not contain any preparaticm of calomel, no altera-
tion of diet nor confinement to the hosive is cetplivite.
Prepared only hy 31r. C. W. Clarke (successor to the lat Mr.
IL Hall), at 115, Holbom-hill ; and sold in bores at 2s.e Dd.,

BUTLER'S CAJEPUT OPODELDOC.--Cajt put
Oil, which la the basis of this Opodeldoc, has been long
esteemed on the Continent as a remedy for Chronic Rheumatism,
Spasmodic Meetings, Chilblains. Palsy, Stiffness, and enlarge-
ment of the Joints. Sprains. Bruises, and Deafness ; and the ex-
perience of late years in England, proves that it meths the high
character given of it by the most eminent in the profession, in those
obstinate complaints. Being confined in the form oft /podeldne, it
Is rendered more penetrating, and consequently much more effi-
cacious as an external application. Rubbed upon the skin, by
means of flannel or the warm hand, it allays morbid irritation
of nerves, invigorates the obsorbents, and accelerates the cir-
culation.

PETER FROST, or the POLAR LINGUIST.
To draw a long bow is a Mariner's glory.
That is, to narrtle a most marvellous story.
A jolly Jack Tar, who all dangers had slued
M'ith brave Captain Parry, a tact thus tteclar'd:—
" lce-bound during winter, and little to do,
We pulisli'd our boots, and went forth to pursue •
Amusement on shore; but the frost, so intense,
Induced us to build a snug lint for defence:
Now mind me—not long were we hous'd when we found
That all our jaw-tackle had run fast aground.
Our words were all froze in the air !—'tis no joke,
And not a voice heard, although ev'ry man spoke.
strithge—but not knowing what then was the matter,
We thought Polar wizards set spell on our clatter
Si' liasten'd on board. Well, six months after that,
The very sante hut in some Ecquimaux sat.
On shore as we strolthl, and a thaw just began,
When forth, talking English. they presently ran !
' You've been to the Sarin it,' they said, judgment not lacking,
• Your boots are illurnin'd by Warren a Jet Blacking.'
" These words by the natives were often repeated;
IVlien, entering the hut, our amaze was completed ;
For, thaw'd into utterance, we heard the full flow
Of seutences spoken there s,x months ago.
" We breathed not a syllable, tongue-tied with awe,
A learn'd Polar Linguist to Gad in the thaw
And oft, in the air while the voices were claCking,
The dissolving words pronorne'd •Warren'aJet Blacking.'
" The Esquiniaux cauelA thits our Imguage, and may
Repeat • Warren's Blacking' to time's latest day,
Vlien some future Parry will guess, from the whole,
That Warren was known leant the South to North Pole!"
This easy ebbing and brilliant Blacking, prepared by ROBERT
WARREN. 30, Strand, London; and sold in every town in the
Kingdom. Liquid, in bottles, lid., MI., IN., and lad. each ; also,
Paste Blacking, in pots, 6d., 12d., and 18d. bbillins pot

CORONER'S INQUEST.

A Jury attlembled yesterday evening, at the Lion and Lamb
public-house, in Drummond-street, Somers-town, to investigate the
cause of the death of Elizabeth Hadley, who expired on Sunday
morning, in Church-way, St. Pancras. Considerable interest was
excited previous to this inquiry, by reports tending to criminate in
a great degree the daughter cf the deceased ; but nothing was eli-
cited from any of the witnesses in confirmation of such report,
which appeared to have originated in the malicious gossip of some
evil•dispesed neighbour.
Mr. Cepeland, surgeon, of No. 7, Tonbridge-place, New-road,
knew the deceased for the last three or four years, and attended her
occasionally in his professional capacity; but had not seen her
for several days previous to Friday evening last. when he was
called upon to attend her about three hours after she had taken
poison ; but bring from home at the time, a friend of his, Mr. Wel-
land, of Judd-street, attended on his behalf: Deponent saw her
afterwards himself, about nine o'clock, when she appeared rather
senseless; was told she had taken nitric acid, anti she complained
of great pain in the stomach, which the least pressure increased
considerably. Inflammation was at the time visible externally in the
region of the abdomen, which was much swollen. She survived
about 19 hours front the time of taking the poison. Her husband
is in the brass trade, and uses aqua-fortis in his business. Opened
deceased yesterday, and found the whole of the stomach completely
destroyed. Deceased always appeared to hint quite happy and
cheerful, and very attentive to her husband. Assigned no reason
for the rash act, and appeared quite collected.
Maryl Ann Hadley, daughter of the deceased, said her mother had
had very bad health for some time before her death, and seemed
to be much deranged in her mind. Her mother and she had some
words in the morning, and she went out to avoid further altercation.
She returned to dinner, and when the family were quietly sitting
at the table her mother started up suddenly and struck her. The
only provocation she gave was her having refused in the morning
to go to her place of service until Tuesday, her mother requiring her
to go on Monday. After she received the blow site went out im-
mediately. and did not return until 6 o'clock, when she was sent
for. Told her father on Thursday that site believed her mother
was deranged. Her mother was in the habit of drinking, and
when in liquor was luite a maniac. Her father is in the habit of
using large quantities of aqua-fortis in his business, to which,
though always lecked up, het mother had occasional access, as she
sometimes assisted him.

Sarah Powel saw deceased the evening she had taken the poison,
and she appeand in a very distracted state of mind.
The Coroner, Mr. ST fnutsfo,recapitulated the evidence, when the
Jury proceeded to view the body, which presented a most appalling
spectacle, being literally one mass of mortification, after which
they shortly delivered a verdict of " Temporary Derangement."

NORTHUMBERLAXD ELECTION.

On Friday, Mr. Beaumont accused Mr. Lambton of prompting
Lord Mookt in his address to the freeholders on the subject of
o.4tholic Emancipation. Mr. Issinbton denied the accusation. On
std.% Mr. Beaumont came forward, and *aid, "Mr. Lambton
says it is not the say it is false." Mr. Lambton then pre.
sensed himself, amidst the cheers of one puny and the clamours
of another. Alter some time spent in procuring silence, Mr.
Lambton addressed the Meeting. He stated that they had all
witnessed the violent and intentional attach made upon one who was
well content to be a silent spectator of what was i using. The
noise continuing, Mr. Lambton asked if it was their intention that
Ise should be heard or not, because he was perfectly ready to give
Mr. Beaumont a very different answer—an answer which he moat
assuredly should have. He hoped that the freeholders of North.
umberland were lot to be assured at this day, that his Noble
Relative (Lord Howick) bad talents which did not require prompt-
ing front any man. It was true he (Mr. Lambton) had made
rune observations on what was passing to his friends, and he had
yet to learn that it was not an Englishman's prerogative to do so.
if it was Mr. Beaumont'', intention to resolve this into a private
quarrel. he should not, as far as he (Mr. Lambton) was concerned,
be baulked in his inclination. bind Howick had been sacrificed
to a base and odious coalition ; but he would retire from the con-
test with an honour which would always belong to the name of
the in its native county. Mr. lAmbton then assured the free-
Alders, in the name of Lortl Howick and in his own, that he
(Lord Howick) would stand whilst one man remained to vote for
and alluded to the means taken to induce the county to be-
r; that his Lordship would not stand. Even letters had barn

daily sent off', stating that he had actually resigned. How could
he (Lord Howick) insure his success in a future election, better
than by giving every freeholder an opportunity of voting in this?
He (Mn lambton) had always considered his Noble Relation fully
equal to answer any attacks that might be made upon him—a
consideration which had hitherto withheld him (Mr. Lamloon)
from indulging in the nearest and dearest feelings of his heart—
those of addressing his fellow.countrymen on n question of great
public interest. (Cheat applause hollowed.) The Candidates then
left the hustings, and • meeting was appointed to take pb.ce on
Saturday between Mr. Beaumont and Mr. Lambton. holm/A-
tkin, however, having been given to Sir D. Smith, is magistnte,
he assembled a number of police, and dispersed them in diffe-
rent directions to prevent the duel i and on Saturday, at five
o'clock, both gentlemen were arrested on the ground, and bound
over to keep the peace.

Veal trade continues heavy here at 4s. 10,1., but Newgate Market
being shortly supplied with dead meat, owing to the great heat of
the weather, the best Calves there readily obtain ss. From the
same cause, the other sorts of Meat at Newra•e Market have this

DISTRESSED MA NUIPACTUSIERSe.—Extract of a letter ad-
dressed to the Committee for the relief of the distressed ma-
nufacturers, from IValton-le-1)1de, near Preston, May 6,

so great as in other pieces, it is owing to exertions and
sacrifices made by private individuals, one of whom, Wm.
Heatley, Esq. a Kunsan Catholic gentietnan, has expended,
since November, 114V6, in well-applied charity, 1,000/.
These and similar acts of kiurluess, while they have miti-
gated the load of our distils', will not, I trust, make it to
be &alight unnecessary to grant us further relief."
