MEETING AT BILLINGSGATE WARD.

It having been insinuated by Sir William Leighton
that he intends to resign his gown as Alderman of Bil-
lingsgate Ward, a meeting of the inhabitants was held
yesterday at Butchers' Ball, for the purpose ul consider-
ing of a proper peril" to be put in nomination to suc-
ceed Sir W. Lei ;hton.
Mr. E. HANSON, the Deputy, opened the inI3:IICSS of
the day by stating the intention of Sir W. Leighton to
resign at the next Court of Aldermen. In consequence
of this intimation, the Chairman said, that he and the
remainder of the Common Council of the and had felt
it their duty to call a meeting of the inhabitants to con-
sult as to a fit and proper person to represent them in the
Court of Aldermen. His brother inhabitants, lie trusted,
would only have to look about themselves, and not have
occasion to go beyond the Ward for a representative.
Mr. T, HEARSAY proposed Mr. Anthony Brown,
whose long services as a Common Councilman, anti
experience in the business of the Ward, peculit.rly qua-
lified him for the situation, as did his fortune and cha-
racter.
Mr. 11. POWER Seconded the motion.

Mr. Print said, he did not t. i:.11 to oppose Mr. Brown,
who, he believed, if chosen, would, as a magistrate, a
sheriff, and a mayor, do honour to the %Van'. The
speaker said, he could have wished to have had Mr. Fa-
y, II for his Alderman; but under the present circum-
stances, he should not oppose Mr. Drown.
After some further observation, the question was put
and carried unanimously.
An inhabitant moved, that the thanks of the meeting
should be given to the Deputy and Common Council rip
the Ward, for calling an open and public meeting to
commit upon a proper person, instead of followhig ex-
amples recently set of the Deputy choosing his Alder-
man, instead of the Alderman choosing his Deputy.
The practice of a junta dictating to the Ward ought to
be discountenanced.

The motion was carried unanimously, when, after
sonic further proceedings, he meeting separated.

COURT OF KING'S RENCII,
WEDNESDAY, MAY :23.
THE KING V. lIANSON.

The court wascalled on in this case to decide whether
any appeal lay to the court of sessions against a convici'
ny two magistrates, upon information charging the.
m de-
fendant with selling beer and ale without two licces.
The Judgcs decided, that the4Bth of George the Tait d
gave no appeal, and confirmed the conviction.

THE KING V. JOS. GLOSSOP.
Mr. Scarlett shoved cause against a rule obtained by
Marryatt to quash the cernoreiri in this case, anu
set aside ail the proceedings for removal of this cause into
the Court of King's Bench. Tue debaidaut, one of Me
proprietors of the Cohnrg-theat re, was convicted by the
Surrey malfistrates, upon informer lout charging hint with
performing dramattc pieces, contrary to the terms of his
licence. The question was, whether the cediorari ought
to be quashed ? It svas stated, that no notice of the
cerliorad had been Riven to the co evicting magistrate,
as requited I,y the act of the 13th of George 11.
Mr. Madryatt was heard in support of the rule.
Mr. Casbard, who was also heard on the same side,
took a new otijection. lle stated that the return made
to the cern:mai was not under iheseal of the ma:6istrates,
as directed by the terms of the writ, and consequently it
was irreaular.
Tice Court upon looking at the return, discovered that
it was not made under seal, therefore it was vrebillar.
Tire Court fitl3lly allowed the rule to be enlarged, for
the purpose of getting the ieturti amended. The ques-
tion or removal consequently remains for luither
discussion.

SIERRA V. SMITH.

Mr. I)minan moved to discharge the defentlantont of
cuito !y of the Marshal of this Court. It appeared that
the platimff had hrousht his action agaiost the tle•em
dant, and that he agreed, after the man w Is in custody,
to take security for 5001. the amount of the debt. The

Reader, on behalf of the attorney, argued that a

-ouuti Led that the court ought not to discharge the
..,!ant.
..ic Judges delivered their opinions seriatim, and held
witoney in such a case could not keep the de-
nt custody. The lien he had in respect of costs,
ue supported by application to tire Court, calling

• to he subject to his claim. There was no prin-
. n r lit law which justified the detention of the defen-
',alit at the suit of the plaintiff, after the plaintiff had
taken security and declared the debt satisfied.
The rule to discharge the defendant out of custody
was made absolute.

A GAYLNG•HOUSE BESIEGELL—An affair which oc-
curred a few evenings since at a gaming house in St.
James's, has occasioned much stir and inquiry at Marl-
borough-street Police-office. Information was laid at
the office by persons who had lost money at play, and
were otherwise dis .ppointed. These persons undertook
to assist the officers in getting into the house, by open-
ing the first floor windows, as the house was so barri.
called that it was im,:ossible for them to get in by the
regular entrance. The whole of the officers, with an
additional force of constables, assembled near the house
at the appointed hour, with ladders in reserve. The
striking of S.. James's clock was the signal for attack,
when some persons within were to throw up the sashes.
The ladders for scaling being brought, the watchman
on the beat gave an alarm, and all was spoiled. The-
watchmen in his defence states, that he did not know
but the patty were about to commit a robbery, as they
were strangers to him. Tile managers of the gaming-
house voluntarily attended before the magistrates upon
one of the inquiries in o the conduct of the watchman,
who was, they urged, doing his duty. They said it was
a house for play, and they had no objection to admit a
police officer at any time, but they dui not chose to hare
the house plundered by a mob. '!were was 4,0001. in
the bank, and that was too much for a scramble. Here
the affair rests.

ONE LAW FOR THE RICH AND ANOTHER FOR THE
Poo the last session oh Parliament a bill was
passed entitled ' An Act for the summary punishment,
tti certain cases, of rrsons wilfully or maliciously dsnia.
ging or committing trespasses on public or private pro.

TOWN HALL. SOUTH WARK.

The Borough of Southwark was thrown into great consterna-
tion and alarm in cons, (pence of a gentleman, named Harmer,
An iron thunder, rtaiumg in Toolcy Street, having been shot
through the head by his wife, Mrs. Eliza Harmer, on
Thursday nigh t about eight o'clock, which produced his instant
death.
Mrs. Harmer, immediately after the commission of the act,
was taken into custody, and several medical men came and ex-
amined the deceased, and thund that the ball had entered the
mint of the right eye, and passed into the brain.
At twelve u'etteit on Friday Mrs. Ellla thinner, the primer,
efitered the Hall in custody, attended by her Solicitor. and was
placed in a chair its font of the bar. She was dressed in a
ran ming cloak, a straw bonnet, and had the appearance of a
most respectable lady ; site was tall, and of rather mild and
towpossosiug features she was in the deepest distress, and was
n ilthculty kept from Wilting. The following evidence was
then taken :
Hannah Stiehl sworn—l am a servant in the family of the
deceased, Mr. Harmer. I have been only a fortZtr in the fa-
mily. I previously lived with Mrs. Harmer's . Friday,
h,tseen twelve and one o'clock, my mistress wens out, and came
I...nie between seven and eight o'clock at night. Mr. Hamer
had asked me. tutor to the prisoner's ream, to make hint some
tea ; after which, lie said, " you may as well get a cup, and sit
down and take tea with me," which I did. He lard nut Men out
during the day ; lie had employed himself in reading. sleeping,
“nd walking in the garden. 1 was at tea with my master when
31,y mistress anise into the (mouse. I went from the table before
hike entered the parlour. My master said to my misuawa, " 1
mought it was :time impudent little monkey like you." This
was said in a joke. I was standing outside the door, but could
not hear distinctly what passed. My mistress afterwards asked
use to sit down to my tea, and to Knuth it; r4it:rndeclined. My
master
said to my mistre.s, *. I and Hann have been taking
sea together, and I am sorry you have came e, for we were
very comfortable." She replied, "I am sorry I did ; but I can
go out again." My master said, •• We COI take tea together
another time." He dien said to the prisoner, ••Did you go
where you intended ?" She replied, „'Yes, and further. The
prisoner put un fresh shoes, and I went down stairs; I heard the
door slum, and thought she was gone out; but soon after, on
nay going up stairs with glasses, I saw my mistress had concealed
henddi behind the parlour door. My master was sitting in the
parlour at the time. I went down stairs, and soon afterwards
heard high words and quarreling between them.
Prisoner—No, Hannah, it was loud talking, but not serious
quarrelling.
Aldermen.—Did you hear the words ; was it quarrelling, or
only talking loud ?
Witness.-1 did not hear what my mistress said ; but my
master said e. God b—t you, I will shoot you," and then I
heard the snap of a pistol, but no report. There were three '
pistols in the house constantly lying about. The deceased had
trequently snapped them at the prisoner, but in play, as I
Nought; it always alarmed the prisoner, and she ran away.—
I never knew the pistols to be loaded, nor ever heard the report,
of a pistol before. I saw my master load the pistols, and saw
him east bullets the night but one before the accident, Tuesday.
I saw Wine bullets lying before him on Thursday, and saw him
put bullets into the pistols while my mistress was absent; did not
know what he afterwards did with the pistols. The deceased
made no observations on putting the balls into the pistols. He
kept the pistols in a cupboard in the parlour. I afterwards
heard the pistols snapped, but did not suspect any hams, having
seen my master do the like before. I soon afterwards heard the
report ci a pistol, and ran up stairs. Mrs. Harmer screamed,
and cridiuut " 1 have murdered my husband; run fur somebody
iminaaliately." I did not think it was loaded. Nothing more
timed. I went into the street, and met a man, a carpenter, and
io:sired him to run fora doctor. I then returned, and found my
iidAress in the house next but one to our own, Mr. Critchard's.
After which my mistress and I retuned to our own house; I
found the doctor, who lives opposite, in the back parlour, attend.
ing on my master, who was seated in a chair. 'the surgeon ob-
jected to my mistress going into the room. I never afterwards
saw my master. I went to fetch my mistress's mother. My
master had been sleeping most of the day. He tool a glass of
Brandy in his tea, which was his custom.
Mr. J. Brindle'', surgeon, flichardson.street, Bermondsey,
a pupil of taut'. Hospital—l by chance heard of the accident as
1 went up Western-nreet. I went to fetch Mr. Grainger, a
surgeon, and on my return, saw the bandages taken from the
wound, which appeared to have been made by a bullet, which
had palmated through the orbit of the eye, and had entered
the brain. I found that he had no pulse.
Kiney, a police officer, deposed as tollowsr—Upon hearing of
the accident, I let Mrs. H. and went into the back parlour,
where I saw the deceased, his face covered with a handkerchief ;
I palled away the handkeichiet, and saw that he was dead
There lay on the table the three pistols now produced, with their
cocks all down. One had been recently fired, as appeared by the
foulness of die pan ; the other two were loaded with ball, but
they were nut pnnmed. 1 saw three surgeons in ths room when
1 entered ; and after they had retired, with die assistance of Jos.
Welch and William Kinson. I canied the deceased up stairs. I
took his watch front his pocket; it was going, sad wanted a '
quarter to nine. I Sean:heti his left hand breeches pocket, from
winch 1 took if's. in silver, and is. mod. in copper. 1 found
ailiongst the money five bullets, all cast trona the sante mould.
In his great coat, which lay on the chair, I found two pistol hags,
a pair of bullet moulds, and two powder flasks. I saw no powder
any where except in the Mel*. I then sent for a coach, and took
the prisoner to the Borough Compter.
she was then ordered to be :emended till Monday, and was
accordingly conducted into the Magistrate's private parlour,
a litre she remained till tour o'clock, when the was conveyed in
a couch to the Centiliter, attended by Mr. Law, the keeper of the
prison, the two Marshalinen (Messrs. Reeve and Wise) and the
parish officers. Air. Aidoman Smith had given particular
utdeis for rendering her situation as astiirtable as the circum•
stances of the case would admit of. The curiosity of die crowd
to :kWh a view oilier person with so great, that on the way the
cosh windows were all broken by the obtrusive crowd. In the
emirs, of the afternoon the High she, ids for the county of Surrey
came to the office, and u:ndered the use of the county prison, if
it ssould.be more convenient, but the offer was politely declined.
Tiie prisoner 625 years old. She was Wattled to the deceased,

Robbery of the Glasgow Mail.—By a most inge-
nious scheme, some robbers succeeded in abstracting
the cash-box belonging'to the Edinburgh Bank from
under the seat of this coach. It luckily turned out,
however, on communicating with the Bank, that
the box sent to Glasgow, that day was entirely
empty while the box of the Royal Bank, which was
full of specie, and lying beside the other, was rejected
by the cunning knaves.
If the reader is afflicted with Fistula, Piles, or
Strictures, we would ask, has ke ever heard of the
late Martin Van Bntchell. who used to treat these
complaints in a way peculiar to himself, and to
effect cures almost universally without having re-
course to either Cutting, Caustic, or Confinement,
which is the usual practice ? We find his son D.
D. Van Bluebell, surgeon, accoueher, who resides
at No. 48, South-street, Berkeley-square, continues
to perform cures of the most dangerous cases by the
same method, and is as completely successful.—
Both rich and poor, who are thus afflicted, will do
well to observe he requires no remuneration until
they are satisfied a cure has been performed ; in
fact, the poor are relieved gratis if respectably
recommended.
FEMALK IMPOSTOR.—A short time since a Gen-
tleman of Oxford met a female beggar in the Parks,
dressed in rags, which rendered her appearance in-
decent in the extreme. She seemed to be 19 or .20
years of age, and was walking towards Oxford.—
He advised her to remain where she was until the
evening, when she might go to a lodging-house,
less exposed to observation. She told a most piteous
tale ; she was hungry, weary, and without money
to procure food or lodging. Knowing the tricks of
vagrants he watched her, and saw several shillings
given to her by some ladies. Some hours after-
wards he met a boy with a bundle, proceeding to-
wards the place where the ragged female was sta-
tioned. He stopped him and enquired what the
bundle contained. The boy was unwilling to reply ;
but, by threats and a promise of a small sum of
money, the boy at length confessed that the bundle
contained the girl's clothes. He acknowledged
that in the morning she stripped herself in a neigh-
bouring hovel: and put on the rugs she then wore ;
and that he was retuning with her clothes from the
lodging-house, in order that she might dress herself
and proceed to Oxford. it appears that this was
her usual practice at all the towns she visited.
A number of ancient ornaments, among which
were u cross, a brooch set with stones, and several
beads, were dug np last week near Guilton-mills,
in the parish of Ash, in Kent ; two graves were also
discovered, with the mouldred remains of the persons
interred. In pursuing the excavations several spears
were found, but so completely oxydized as to be
incapable of being removed ; on the attempt they
crumbled into dust.

CHILD BED LINEN, Millinery, and Dresses,
on very reasonable term- ;—Mrs.INGRA M respectfully informs
her Friends and the Public in general, that she has laid in a well
selected and large assortment of Child Bed Linen, which she is
enabled to sell at very low prices, and Millinery of every descrip•

IMPRESSED with a just •trul humane sense of
the calamitous ',intuits arising from the injudicious treatment of
a certain malady, and often entailing on its unhappy victim •
series of distressing and almost insupportable afflictions, 1/r.
I:dl)Y Iy:spin:dully calls the attention of tlto-e interested, to his
peculiar and most effectual method of cure, unlike the advertising
empiric of the day, or the equally criminal conduct of those "who
hotel the promise to the ear, and break it to our hope." Dr.
le:*Dv will nut presume to pledge infallibility in every description
of case, but as tar as loniain Mil, assisted by medical and surgical
skill can be applied, he promises a certain, speedy, and perma-
nent restoration; having made every species of Syphilitic
affitetien and its various train of diseases the primary objects et
his professional studies, and being flattered by the transcendent
success which has accompanied his mode of treatment during the
course of a long and litlitirious practice, he is enabled to offer,
with the fullest confidence, pretensions at once the most hopeful
and encouraging. Innumerable instances can be adduced
illustrative of the superiority of 11r. liaur's system, which has
been found to prevail, even where eminent talent, retained by
public institutitnis,lllo orovetl ineffectual. In addition to those
consolatory advances Dr. liAll'i will be found equally fortunate
in reviving the slumbering and debilitated energies of the human
constitution, which embitter. and it' not timely arrested, fie
quently render nugu:ory the very principal of existence. From
tilts desolating state of inanity by re-animating the frame and
affording tone and elasticity to the relaxed °roans, Dr. EADY is
happy to convey the mon sneering and positive assunuices that
the sufferers of both sexes may lie rescued; a steady perseverance
in the means dictated being only required.—Dr. 11,..5.nr is con-
sulted daily, et his house, 51s. Dean Street, Soho, by patients of

CORN EXCHANGE, WEDNESDAY. MAY 23.
We have had but few fresh arrivals of Wheat since Monday,
consqauently the samples which appeared met with a brisk sale,
and fully supported the advanced prices of that day. Barley was
not much in request, and only the finest samples obtained the
prices of Monday. the inferior descriptions being Is. per qr.
cheaper. The trace in Oats was dull, and only the finest samples
were disposed of at our last prices. In Beans, Peas, etc. there is
no alteration.

.:XCHANGE, FIIIDAY, MAY 25.
We have had but few arrivals of fine Wheat this week, and
there being a brisk demand, sales were readily effected at
:Monday's prices; but there was no demand for the inferior
qualities. The trade in Barley was rather mute brisk, especially
for that of fine quality, which obtained a trifling advance—about
Is. per quarter. Oats fully supported our last prices. In Bean:,
Peas, &c. there was nu alteration.
