MANSION HOUSL.

John Inman, 76.1.11 ''' one of roaches,
ttiuded upon an information filed ggidast him for having in
his possessinii certain contraband g 00,1,1, not allowed to be
imported into this country. He pleaded goiltv to the itifor-
million, and NAid that the goods had come into "his possession
under the following circumstances:—

A fellow-servant of his, the coachman between Ipswich
and G dcbestsr, one day last week desired him to take
change of • parcel for a friend of his in London, and on
1161 arrival there to see it safely delivered. On reaching
the Spread t.;agle, Graceclutrch•street, lie gave it to is
ticket porter, with orders to carry It, 86 directed, to Mr.
Lee, 7, Belvidere-plitee, Hog-row, tirtlinal-green. 'Ube

affirmative, and gave it them. 'lhey ope tied it in his presence,
and fonnil therein Itamlana silk to she valne of 91. Inman
protested his complete ignorance of the contents of the
parcel.
On the Lord Mayor's observing that this was a •ery dark.
and shameful case, the Custom-house officers said, that they
hoped that his Lordship diii not impute any blame to them ;
they had only fulfilled their ditty in acting upon the inform'.
tints which they hid received. The full penalty was three
times the value of the property seized, and amounted to 271.,
but they prayed his Lordship to mitigate it to one half the
sum, which his Lordslii,i immediately did, and which a friend
alumni, as immediately paid.

who laid the interinatiou. It wax said, however. that the

GUILDHALL.

Catherine Sutherland, an Irishwoman, was brought before
the sitting Alderman, on Thursday, in custody of an officer,
charged with felony.
The first witness called against her gave his name Valentine
Sutherland; and on being asked whether the prisoner was
a relation of .his, said, " Yes, your Worship, she is ray
wife."

Alderman Smith.—Your wife! Why she is charged with
felony. A wile Callllot commit a felony against her bus.
band.

Witness.—" I can't tell yonr Lordship, bow that is; but
this I know, she has robbed me, and or all-I have get in the
wand too."

The husband then, at the snggestion of the Magistrate,
stated, that he was a aeasnail, e d hail lately come from
abroad ; his wife was very glad to see him, and the snore
so when she learnt be hail some money to receive. lie went
to the Admiralty, and received upward* of .101. for wages
and prise-money, whieb he took home, and for greater secu-
rity placed it under the bed. When Ids wife matte the bed,
she said she would take care of the money ; she accordingly
took it away, and went out. He had some suspicion of her,
(rein. certain tricks she had plitjeJ him before, and therefore
thought prosper to go and look after her, anti !Nevins that she
was going off into the country, Rot an otrwer sad had her
taken into cuswily just as she had taken a place in the Ply-
mouth coach.

Catherine Sutherland, the wife, being asked what she had
to urge in ker defence, said her hustle/id knew she bad the
looney; she bad it above two days, and she was only going
into the country to see her. friers. The Magistrate then
questioned her as to what she had done with the money ; to
which she replied, with much affected innocence and sim-
plicity, and every appearance of regret and distress, "Please
your honour, I've lost it all."
The Alderman suggested to the husband, that if his wife
was detained in custody for a iew days, isise would probably
tell what had become of the money. 'Phis suggestion wasabout
to be adopted, when Hawkins, the officer, sagaciously hinted
the propriety of searching the prisoner,and she was taken into
a private room for that purpose.
On the return of die parties into court, the features of the
husband, which had exhibited nothing but melancholy during.
the tittle lie was relating thw tale of his misfortunes, were
lightened up with a smile when Hawkins announced that the
whale of the property, amounting to 621., .had been found
upon her.
The notes were accordingly restored to 11w husband,
who returned thanks to the magistrate for his kindness,
and said lie would he at the trouble to take hi. wife home
In her father and mother its Ireland, and have nothing
further to do with her. The prisuuer was then delivered
Wm his care, after a suitable adusoisitisas from the win thy

BOW-STREET.

On Friday several .persons, who had porchesed tickets for the
English Opera on Thursday. but had been excluded in eonscluence
of the great overflow usual °a bandit nights. applied to this onto to
obtain the redress. One gentleman stated that he had taken places,
but on proceeding to them found the box full. and the boxkecper
could not provide him with others. After waiting .a considerable
time in the iobbv, a Gentleman was poimed out to tiicin whom they
were told was Mr. Grove, and to whom they complained without
success. They wore afterwards told that they would be shown into
a private hex, and a door was opened to them. after passim• through
which, instead of entering as they expected into a box, they found
themselves to their mortification in the street. Tile Gentleman
stated, that he was aware that he must look for the re-payment of
the price of the tickets from the person from whom he purchased
them, and not from the Managers ; but he came to support, as a
witness, the complaint of' the other two getitleinen and a lady, now
present in the office, who paid their money at the door on an as-
surance that there was plenty of room, when there was not a seat to
be got. On demanding that their money should be returned, it was
refused. Mr. t'cake, the treasurer of the theatre, and the box-
keeper, were sent for. Mr. Peaks, with regard te the latter ease, re-
gretted that the money-taker had refused to return the money. and
paid over the 15s. to tit complainants ; as to the other case, he was
sorry for the inconvenience which the gentleman and his family had
experienced, but in the situation of the house it was ithpossible to find
them accommodation. The Magistrate informed the box-keeper
that he ought to have taken measures to turn the persons out of the
box who had improperly taken pos;ession of it.
George Beck. who was sea:et:red to transportation for burglary in
the October Sessions of tai a, and who sailed to Botany Bay with
other convicts in the ship ,Faany, was charged with being at large be-
fore the expitation.of his sentence. The prisoner's defence was, that
while the Fanny was lying at anchor &re miles on' Rio Janeiro, one
evaning he was leaning against the heal-railing,, which broke, and
he fell overboard unobserved by any porsou on board ; that he s•.yahn
for six hours and a half with an iron on one leg, and reached the op-

themselves to secondary causes; their remedial sugges-
tions are, consequently of the same class. Mr. Jerram's
leading principle is, -that the nzeans which bid the fairest
for success, lie within the poor themselves under the di-
rection and assistance of the legislature, in coif/unction
with prudent and active charity, to all which, as seem-
dary remedies, we fully assent, at we do 'alio to the
reverend author's observations respecting the •morality
of the poor. Here we cannot do better than give his
own words. • He says :.•-•

" In all attempts t 6 improve the condition of the poor,
Ibis is the first point 'to which uur first and principal efforts
must be directed. 1,l nmAgive them principles—we must
Inrnish them with motives—let must hold out inducements.
'limy must not be depre:ieed:but elevates?, taught to think,
little indeed of themselves, and their nwn moral attainments,
hut most highly of their exalted ' rank in creation and their
future destiny. Let the it children then be carefully instruc-
ted. and trained up in religions habi:;—let parents be visited
at their habitations and kindly admonished of what is evil,
and incited to a constant attendance on the.ordinances of
religion: amid let it appear that a sincere legal d is felt by
their superiors, for their best interests; and they will feel
their obligations, and will endeavour to teturwtt'lly diligence
in their business, sobriety in their conduct, and respect to
their benefactors."

His coiseinciing remark is striking and just—
" All efforts will be shin tive without moral cultism. Make
the Poor, Chri►tiane, anti they will not make themselves pau-
pers."

COVENT GARDEN.

This theatre re-opened on Monday night,with the new
musical drama. of Rob Ray Macgregor, and the Panto•
mime. A few trifling alterations hawe been effected in
the interior:of the house. An additional seat has been
gained in the pit next the orchestra, part of which, to
tnake room for the alteration, is carried under the
stage--a plan which appears to place a portion of the
petibrmers in a somewhat unpleasant situation. In the
light which ranges along the front of the stage, gus
has substituted for oil. The pieces were perform-
ed with great spirit, and the favourites of the public
:gained their usual 'need of applause. The house was
crowded, but .not in Fa great a degree as or, the first
and second perfbrmances of Pwb Roy.
We must not omit noticing on this occasion, the
great degree of perfection which has been attained in
the mode of warming and regulating the temperature of
the•theatre. In no part of this large building does
there exist any variation • sufficiently great to cause an
unpleasant feeling.

SURREY THEATRE.

The chief novelty at this house, .Was a ,bnrletta in
two acts, founded on the admirable Romance of Sir
Launcelot Greaves, in which the principal characters
there described, are introduct.4l, with all the original
eccentricities .and humour, - imparted to them
the ingenious Author. Several excellent son*, chiefly
selections from the best Irish and `coach compositions,
are introduced;. and the whole vent off to the entire
ratisfiiction of ii,:erowdeil audience. . The piece was
followed by a. valid taelo.dmtue, entitled the Three
Talismans ; which affords a beautiful all interesting
exhibition of Turkish manners. The house has been
newly embellished, and every thing belonging to.. it
was. attractive.

COVENT-GARDEN..

Mr. W. Farren is proceeding in the full career of
popularity, or rather has already reached the goal ; his
third performance of Sir Peter Teazle on Wednesday
nigh; drew an overflowing audience, and was rewarded
with universal apjd.;ase. The play :was followed by a
new entertainment called The liurgomager-of Saar-
data ; or, Tile .Tivo Peters. The story is fisunded on
the fortunes of Peter the Great, while exercising the
fanetions of a shipwright, at Suardam, fur the good of
subjects; an interesting portion of history, bat very
deflective in dramatic interest: an attempt is made to
sup ply this dec:t.•:by introducing smother Peter, al,o
from Llus.:ia, b.lt a desert& insteatl of an Emperor, and
from his tieing. oiist•sken for the Czar in disguise by the

duced. some liftlicruhs situations. In the person of his
sister, too, we find the celebrated •Calharine, who
fistretl and controlled the fortunes of the Czar. Time
defects of the story- have not, after all, been surmounted,
end the piece is consewently very dull. It contains
some tolerable music, smut good dancing, and some
beautiful scenery. All of these were barely sufficient
to save the• piece,. woich ene(matered in its progress
much distapprooati.m; at the conclusion, however, the
applause appeared .grealy to preponderate. The elm-
ree...ers were Weil supported, but presented nothing
particularly worthy of comment.

THE NATIO tiAL AGISTER.

LONDON:

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1818.

THE Paris Papers of Wednesday last arrived yes-
terday morning. We perceive, among the official
notices in the Moniteur, that Baron Vincent. the
Austrian Minister, had a private audience of Louis
„XVIII. to present to his Majesty a letter from his
Sovereign. Of the probable purport of the letter, not
a word is mentioned.

The following are extracts from these Papers
" PARIS, SEPT. 23.—The King has experienced a
slight attack of the gout duri:l,.; the last two days.
" General Jomini, one of the Emperor of Russia's
Aides de-Camp, who has resided in Paris for some time
past, has recently sevetr for Aix-la-Chapelle.
" The affecting funeral ceremony of the respectable
Abbe Gaultier took place yosterday. The deceased was
one of the founders and Vice President of the Society of
Education in Paris. Several members and patrons o
this institution, and the children of the different primary
schools, attended the body in procession, first to the
church of St. Thonas d'Aquin, and afterwards.to the
burial ground of Pere la Chaise, where were .deposited
the revered remains of this sincere friend to youth and
humanity, regretted by all good peorlc.
" The first volume of the History of the Spanish
War against Napoleon Buonaparte,' written and pub-
lished by order of his Catholic Majesty, has recently
appeared at Madrid. It is the production of the third
section of the Commission of Chief and Officers of all
ranks, established at Madrid, under the immediate di-
rection of his Excellency the Secretary of State, Minis-
ter of War.

" SFPT, 12.—8 y the last letters from Con-
stantinople, dated the 10th of August, we learn, that
all the foreign Nlinisters have addressed a note to the
Divan, relative to the persecutions ugaiast Chris-
tians at Aleppo ; the English Minister,• in particular,
evinced Mt. most lantlablc energy on this occasion. His

COMMON PLEADER.

Mr: Dixon said, that before they proceeded to the
election of a common pleader, he wished to point out to
the Court a difficulty into which they mignt get if
a sufficiont number of eamlidates were not tinind quali-
fied, so as to give the Court an opportunity of selection
in its eiteice of aTerson to fill this important °glee.
Mr. Brown said he had a petition to pr,:sent from • a
'Barrister who was not a freeman toerefize moved,
that he should be admitted a canilida:e on an under-
, stamling that, if chosen, he should take out hislreederrn
within one month from the date of the election.

-Aliicrwan Waithman thought the Court•right not
to be swap ,1 ou. biassed by attending to the consitkra-
Lion of one particular rase.
Mr. 1):Non 14,1 i t, that it' the camlidates had been aware
that it was 11.-otiitelv ir.:ceary that they*lriuld de
freemen Before proccjding to tlte elc,;tian, Lltly would
.irc macre.: Clem:A:Ms cligibla.

IItPT. 17

Mr Harvey was of opinion, that the motion could
clot be sustained, inasmuch as the candidates could not
have been ignorant that they ought to be freemen
hefore proceeding to election. The Court oaght there-
fore to make its chuiec instantly, as otherwisa it would
•be castini a deep injury apon the prOfaniOnal character
of the candillates wbn eligible, if they sent them
back in order to get fitter persons.
The Court was then proceeding to the election,
when it appearing that only two out of the live can-
didates were eligible,
Mr. Jaclison moved an adiourninent, which, after
same time, was carried on a divibion of 77 to 61.
Adjourned.

placed under the consideration of tie nous", he thought it his
duty to delay no longer, and tberefore moved for leave to
bring in a Bill. to assist persons, who were brow fide holders,
unconnected with the usurious transactions, by rendering
valid bills of exchange, or pronti.siory notes, in their haiids.

PRl7g_ MONEY.

... .
Mr.ExttEr. was desirous of inquiring from the Noble Lori,
wham he sew M his place, by what regulations the Medical 41&;era.
who were in attendance upon 500(1 wounded sAiliers inßru•sds wire
deprived of their right in sharing with their other officers the prate
money appointed to be distributed among them, while some ofii:tra
who were notat any of the battles, hut who join el the army upea
their approach to Paris, were allowed to participate in the hernfit ?
Lord Par.stEstsrow obierved„ that Medical Officers genera:lf
share with other officers in the pr:ze money, but they WCIC w:l3
were in immediate atcendaacc. If the Medical Officer, at Bmrsi:i
were entitled, by the same rule those in England had a right to :hare.
With regard to the officers who had joined the army be,iiro it reached
l'aris, although they had escaped the dangers of a battle, they had
been prepared to encounter danger, and were ignorant of what event
might occur before they gained Paris. To deprive them of their
',bare of the prize money would not be consistent. hut the distribution
of it among Medical Officers, was regulated upon fixed principks,
from which it was not proper to deviate.
The Alien Bill was read a third time and passed.
Mr. (7 O,!RTENAY gave notice,. that on Tuesday next he th 1131.1
move for leave to bring in a. Bill to establish Parochial litrif!it
Societies.

The other Orders of the Day were then disposed of, and the house
