CITY, TirEL V E O'CLOCK.
It was reported in the afternoon of yesterday that appli-
cation was made to the Bank Directors by one of the Ame-
rican houses whom they assisted for an extension of the
period of payment, which was granted ; and it is probable
that similar accommodation will be afforded to other com-
mercial houses, to give time for remittances to come from
the United States.

The accounts received yesterday from the manufacturing
districts were of a more favourable nature than received for
several days past. _

We arc looking with considerable interest for Miss
Pardon's promised work on the East ; and the rather that,
from the account which we have received of a pertion of its
contents, we imagine that it will prove one of the most attrac-
tive books of the season. Miss Pardoe, who during her resi-
dence at Constantinople, was a guest in the Palace of the
Sultan's sister, gives, we understand, a very favourable report
of the amiability and naiveté of the Turkish ladies ; and as
she formed friendships with the wives of several of the Minis.
tors, she had opportunities of studying their manners, which
no European has ever hitherto possessed.—Court Journal.
On Tuesday morning an inquest was taken on view
•of the body of R. Littlewood, ho was a dealer in horses, end
who was returning home from Pontefract Market, on Saturday,
in a state of intoxication, along with a companion. They
commenced racing, and shortly afterwards the deceased's horse
fell upon its knees, and unfortunately the man was pitched
upon the road, and such serious injuries were inflicted upon
his person, that he never spoke, but expired almost immedi-
ately.—York Courant.

Look on the good things which God has given you
in this world, and to those which He has proposed to His fol-
lowers in the next. He who goes into his garden to look for
cobwebs and spiders, no doubt will. find them•; while he who

in his bosom.

CHANCERY COURT.- (THIS DAY.)

THE KING'S MANORIAL DOOM'S IN THE EASTERN DIVISION OF

TILE COUNTY OF GLOUCESTER.
Mr. Charles Henry Ackerly, the gentleman who on Wed-
nesday brought before the notice of the Lord Chancellor the
subject of the Manorial Courts of the Eastern Division of
Gloucestershire, this morning again addressed his Lordship
upon his taking his seat, observing that as constable he claimed
a warrant from the Court against Edward Bloxam, for the ad-
miniktration of illegal oaths, lie not having taken the oaths as
Clerk of the Peace for the county of Gloucester. Mr.
Bloxam had sworn in constables though he had not taken the
oaths himself.

The LORD CHANCELLOR inquired what the applicant de.
sired him to do ?

Mr. ACKEkLY wished his Lordship, as the representative of
his Majesty, to grant a warrant against Mr. Edward Bloxarr.
lie felt compelled to make the application, in consequence ( f
the position in which he was placed, having been sworn to e.O
his duty to the Crown.

The" LORD CHANCELLOR observed, that before Mr. Ackerly
made his application to the Court, he should have ascertained
whether it had jurisdiction or not. Some other course must
be adopted. as be (the Lord Ceancellor) had no jurisdiction.
M. ACKERLY wished to know what course he was to pursue?
The LORD CHANCELLOR said that he sat in that Court to
adjudicate upon cases, and not to give advice.
Mr. ACKERLY then left the Court.
