MARKS V. BENJAMIN.

This was an action brought to recover penalties
under the 25th George 11., chap. 36, for allowing
music and dckncing in a public house without a license.
It was tried before Lord Abinger at the sittings in
London after last Term, when a verdict, by the direc-
tion of the Learned Judge, was found for the defendant.

Mr. HUMFREY now moved for a rule to show cause
why there should not be a new trial on the ground of
misdirection. On the part of the plaintiff it was proved
that the defendant was landlord of a house called
Howard's Coffee House, in St. James-place, Aldgate—
that he had no license for dancing and music, and that
there were frequent dances held in the house, the
admission to which was ls., and to masquerades
Is. 6d.—(A laugh.) It appeared almost as if his Learned
Friend, Mr. Jervis, had been a frequenter of the
house, for he cross-examined as to the position in which
so great a man as Sir Moses Montefiori danced, for it
turned out that no less a personage had danced there,
at some Jewish wedding. In fact, it was entirely a Jew-
ish case ; plaintiff, defendant, witnesses, and. all but
the Counsel, were Jews. He submitted, upon the
authority of " Green v. Bouverie," 3d Carrington and
Payne, 471, that it mattered not whether the defendant
took the money at the door or not ; if dancing took
place in the house, and money was taken at the door,
he was clearly liable to the penalties under the Act,
Lord ABINGER said the money taken at the door was
taken by the dancing-master, who had hired the room
for a ball. There was nothing to show that the land-
lord did more than let the room either for balls or
Jewish weddings, when the parties usually danced.
Rule granted.
The COURT gave notice that they would proceed with
the new trials of this Term on Thursday next.
The special paper was then proceeded in, No case
possessed any feature of public interest.

(Sittings at the Guildhall, before Mr. Baron GURNEY
and a common Jury.)
The Court of Exchequer sat this morning in the city
of London, at Nisi Pries, Mr. Baron GURNEY presiding.
The• Learned BARON took his seat on the bench at
about ten o'clock, and a Jury having been sworn, the
Court proceeded to the hearing of several undefended
cases of no interest whatever, except to the parties con-
cerned ; having disposed of which, the Court rose at
eleven o'clock.

A uossuao, JULY 28.—The Austrian Observer bas de-
tached accounts which, like our own, are to the 6th of
July, and furnish the same particulars. They too mention
the 25th as the day of the battle of Nisid, whereas the ac-
counts from Constantinople gives the 24th. Our letters
from Alexandria, given by the Austrian Observer, and
which is dated the sth of July, concludes with the follow-
ing words :—" Mehemet Ali affirms that a golden bridge
will be made for the fugitives to return home, and that
Ibrahim will pursue them beyond the Euphrates." On the
other hand, a letter immediately following, dated Alex-
andria, the 6th of July, says, " Ibrahim Pacha writes
from Aintab on the 28th of June, that he had directed
three regiments of infantry and three of cavalry to occupy
wrfa and Diarbekir, and that he had arrived at Aintab
Oith the rest of the army on the 28th. The French Cap-
tain, Caille, arrived at Alexandrette on the 23d of June,
where he stopped a day and a half, so that he probably
did not reach Ibrahim Pacha's head quarters before the
30th of June. Mehemet Ali repeats his assurance that
Ibrahim Pacha will stop in his pursuit as soon as Captain
Caille reaches his camp.—Allgemeine Zeitung, July 28.

BIRMINGHAM POLICE BILL.

Lord JOHN RUSSELL proposed to discharge the
Order of the Day for the Committees of this Bill in order
that he might bring in a new Bill.
Mr. C. BULLER suggested that it should be post-
poned instead of being discharged.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL acceded to the suggestion.
The Tithe Commutation Act Amendment Bill was
read a second time and ordered to be committed.

The Highway Rates Bill was read a third time and
passed.
The Assaults (Ireland) Bill was reported and ordered to
be read a third time to-morrow.
POOR LAW CONTINUATION BILL.

On the Order of the Day being read for committing the
above Bill,

Lord WO RSLE Y said he did not like to subject him-
self to the charge of misrepresentation, and on searching
the Journals he found the Right Hon. Baronet had voted
on the Metropolis Police Bill on the loth of July, but had
not voted on the Poor-law Continuation Bill.

Sir R. PEEL said this was rather a strange charge to
bring forward after the lapse of a fortnight. He had
for thirty-seven days sat on a private Committee
and might have very probably been absent from the divi-
sion alluded to ; but it was from no desire or intention of
shrinking from the discharge of his duty.

t‘ Mr. Grant, the highly popular author of these volumes
is like Jacques : he
Finds tongues in trees, books in the ranning brooks,
Sermons in stones, and good in every thing.'
He walks through the world with his eyes and wits about him.
He shines alike in the instructive, the humourous, and the pa-

demonstrate. We most sincerely and earnestly recommend
the work to all who are fond of profitable amusement."—Bath •

By the Coroner—The deceased has lately been very
depressed, in consequence of the illness of his sister, and
family affliction. I have reason to think his sister was
affected in her mind. He did not eat any breakfast
on Thursday morning. Mrs. .Hosen is a cousin of the
deceased.
Edwin Wheeler Mills, of the firm of Glyn, Mills, and
Company, bankers, of Lombard-street—l knew the
late Mr. Sims ; he kept an account at our banking-

has a very handsome balance in our hands at this time.
I will name the amount if you like.
Mr. Teasdale said that was not necessary.
Examination continued—Tim deceased was in my
judgment, far, very far, from being in pecu-
niary difficulties. He was a Director of a Fire

now hold on the subject, that had the Ministers
taken the same line on this question as on the re-
sisting further organic reform, that the great mass
of the Tories would have supported them, and pre-
vented Mr. WALLA cE, or any other gentleman,
from carrying any measure through the House of
Commons. In considering, therefore, what the
Tories have done and would do, and judging the
conduct of the INlinistry by that of other -Ministries,
not by what may be expected from some Republi-
can or Radical Ministry, of which the elements are
not yet known—we said, and we repeat, that the
Ministers are deserving the gratitude of the nation
for what they have done.
Dr. EPPS evidently believes all the calumnies
which the Tories have circulated against the Mi-
nisters concerning their wish and hope that the
Tories would throw out the Bill. He ought, how-
ever, to recollect that the late CHANCELLOR of the
EXCHEQUER, who was, we believe, the unwilling
agent of the Cabinet to bring it forward, was partly
by that measure forced out of office, and that no
sooner was he succeeded by Mr. BA RING than the
Right Hon. Gentleman appointed Mr. HILL to
superintend the execution of the plan, and took
instant and energetic measures to give it effect.
Now, as the unwilling Mr. RICE was forced by his
Colleague:: to bring forward the Bill, as those col-
leagues, subsequently to getting rid of him, appear
to have lost no time in giving us an instalment of
the benefits of the new Act, we must, in defence of
repeat, that if ever public men
our consistency
can be said to deserve public gratitude for doing
their duty, the present Ministers deserve it for the
improvement in the Post-office, which is to com-
mence on the sth of next month.
We should perhaps agree with our second Cor-
respondent were the Treasury Minute all that we are

THE MARQUIS OF WELLESLEY.—The Earl
of Mornington, father of the Marquis Wellesley, and
of the Duke of Wellington, died several thousand pounds
in debt. By virtue of a peculiar law, his property was
inherited by his eldest son, the Marquis Wellesley,
without being liable for the payment of his debts.
The Marquis, nevertheless, from a conscientious
spirit, resolved tc discharge all these debts before
he should allow himself fully to enjoy the family pro-
perty. He lived for a few years with rigid economy, and
thus saved enough of money to pay every farthing which
his father had owed. Araring the creditors of the de-
ceased Earl was one who applied for the payment of
1.50/. The young Lord, upon examination, found that
it bad been transferred, by a poor old man, to whom it
was originally due, to the present possessor, for the
small sum of 501. " I will deal justly with you,"
said his Lordship, " but I will do no more. Here
are the fifty pounds you paid for the bond, and
legal interest for the time it has qeen in your pos-
session." The holder, knowing that he could not
strictly claim a single shilling, was content with
not losing any thing. 'But the Noble Lord
who thus gave an early proof of that honour and in.
tegrity which be afterwards displayed largely in offices
of the highest trust, did not stop here; he sought out
the original holder of the bill, and, finding him pa
paid him the whole sum, with a large arrear of in term.
