ROLLS' COURT.-.(TMS DAY.)

titions up to the tifi;e. L oar Peaving.

BENCII—(THIS DA V).
(§ittingl in Banco.)
FiASLOCK V. fiiAc:t;f"osi:
'lthis it'aa f.* money had MA received, tried
before Lord Denman ai the Guildhall Sitting, the facts
of the case as they appeared on 66 trial were, that i Mts.
Pa..frica wds in the habit of purchasing te,ds from the de-
fendant l'eigit:',o.7T? a linen draper, of King-street, Covent-
garden ; that she becata, 'tt.:tilar in her payments, and
the ditfendant stopped her credit, but L'ubsi3quently renewed
it. Mrs. Barnes having applied to the plaintiff, a wholesale
warehouseman in the City, for goods, was asked for a re-
ference, and she referred to the defendant. Th, plaintiff
on applying at Ferguson's shop, was told by the shopman
Hobson, that he might safely give Mrs. Barnes credit, ani
she accordingly did obtain goods from the plaintiff to a con-
siderable amount, which slip converted into cash at a lower
pridd than she was to have paid for them, and with the pro-
ceeds she paid a portion of her account with the defendant.
It was objected at the time. that there was no written re-
presentation of character given by the defendant, as required
by the Statute 9th Geo. IV. c. 14, and upon that objection
the plaintiff was nottseited.
A rule to set aside the not:7)114 and for a new trial/ wt.:s
subsequently obtained by the Attorney-General.
Sir FREDERICK POLLOCK (with whom WCre Mr KELLY
and Mr. ARNOLD) now appeared to shew cause attalast
the rule, and contended that there was no evidence of
any act on the part of the defendant to warrant the
Court in coming to the conclusion, that the defendant
had given a false representation of the character or cre-
dibility of Mrs. Barnes. The defendant was not aware
that Mrs. Barnes was selling the goods obtained by the
plaintiff, and with the Proceeds paying the defendant's
claim. There was no proof of a guilty knowledge of Mrs.
Barnes's conduct, and Counsel therefore submitted that the
rule ought to be discharged.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL was heard in reply, ani
Court postponed its judgment.

MR. AINSWORTII'S NEW ROMANCE "CRICII-
TON."—Mr. Ainsworth, who certainly produced in his " Rook-
wood" a work indicating very considerable powers and re-
sources, has in his new story " Chrichton," aspired to the
honour of fraMing a regular historical romance. tie has set
about his task evidently with great pains ; has read a great
deal of contemporary history ; has familiarised himself with
the manners of the time ; is well versed in its intrigues ; and
has woven the result of his reading Into a series of scenes at
once rapid, graphic, and imposing in their movement, of which
the admirable Crichton is the hero, during his residence in
the Court of France. Mr. Ainsworth has many of the best
qualities of a romance-writer, and holds the mind in suspense
by scenes of peril and terror. " Crichton" is the work of a
man of genius."—Edinburgh Review, April, 1837.

LONDON,
SATURDAY EVENING, MAY 6,1837.

The House of Lords is playing just the sort of game we
had expected.. Last night they succeeded by a majority
of 77, in postponing the committal of the Irish Municipal
Reform Bill to the 9th of June—just five weeks from the
present time ! And this shuffling, temporising policy—
this willingness " to wound," but fear " to strike"—this
evident " letting I dare not, wait upon I would"—their
Lordships possibly imagine will be recognised by the coun-
try as sound statesmanship ! Never were factious oligarchs
so miserably mistaken. Had they gone boldly into com-
mittee, and burked the Bill at once, the people, however
they might have deprecated their conduct, would, at least,
have given them credit for moral courage, which is always
respected ; but when they find them tampering with the
question, and seizing the first flimsy pretext that presents
itself of putting off its discussion—when the people see this,
and see, moreover, that the Lords are just as virulently—
though more craftily, perhaps—opposed to them as ever,
what other feeling can they entertain towards them
than that of supreme contempt ? Not one sa-
tisfactory reason, did their Lordships allege in jus-
tification of their proposal for an adjournment. They
would have it so, was literally the sum and substance
of their argument, for it is absurd to dignify by the name
of reasoning the anile sophistries which the Duke of
WELLINGTON poured forth so copiously. It fortunately
happens, however, that there is another will to be consulted
besides that of the Bouse of Lords. There is such an in-

CORONERS' INQUESTS.

On Saturday afternoon an inquest was held at the Burling-
ton Hotel, Cork-strce, eq view of the body of Count Mate
Alborg, Schulenberg, aged thirty, a Prussian nobleman of
high distinction. The inquiry created much interest, owing
to the high rank of the deceased, and during the proceedings
a number cf distinguished foreigners were in the room.
Mr. Ed. Duke Moore, surgeon, of Arlington-street, Pic-
cadilly, deposed that, on Thursday last, Colonel Sir Augustus
d'Este called at witness's residence and requested him to call
at the Burlington Hotel and see the deceased, who was suf-
fering from nervous indisposition. Witness went to the hotel
about one o'clock in the day. On his arrival an alarm was
given by sonic of the domestics of the establishment that the
Count had thrown himself out of his bedroom window. Wit-
ness and others went up to the room, which was vacant. The
sash was up. In the meantime the deceased was taken up
from the pavement in Burlington-street, and removed into the
passage of the house, where Mr. Stafford and the witness at-
tended. Deceased was put to bed, and on examination was
found to be quite insensible and dangerously injured. Both
bones of the left leg were broken, the large bone of the right
leg fractured, dislocation of the bones of the wrist, and severe

MONEY MARKET.

SATURDAY EVENING.—To those who are watching the p To-
gress of the great American experiment for establishing a pa-
per circulatiOn in this country, the announcement will not be
read with indifference that bills to the amount of 1,000,001 )l.
have been shipped by the packet which has just arrived, send
which sailed on the 10th inst. This occurred also, which is
very material to be observed, when it was not known what re-
ception they were likely to experience here, and when doubts
existed, as some of the letters' state, whether they would ti
currency at all. Those who believe, then, that the Unity d
States Bank and other banks and joint stock companies in Ne w
York, will voluntarily desist from sending when they find sue.h
markets open, and so effectual a relief provided for difficulties a t
home, must have minds provided with reasoning powers of a very
peculiar kind. The crisis in New York, at the date of these ac-
counts, among the trading interest, had reached a degree of inten-
sity to which none of the previous accounts furnish any parallel.
In the statements of failures they are so alarmiug, and describe
the calamity to be of so sweeping and general a nature, as almost
to outrage belief. Before adopting them implicitly, it seems
prudent to wait for further intelligence; but it may be men-
tioned that one of the private letters, the credibility of which
there is no reason to doubt, states that there had occurred
near a hundred failures in New York alone, and estimates the
total amount of them at not less than 3,000,0001. The
classes upon whom the mischief has fallen are then enumerated
in order; but, without any close knowledge of the internal state
of that city, it may be inferred that the major part of these
must be speculators and persons of no note, whose fall can ex-
ercise no influence beyond its limits. Such was the determina-
tion of the banks, whatever assistance they might give in paper,
not to allow themselves to be run upon for gold, that notices
had been given in some instances, and where it had not,
the fact was well understood, that where customers pro-
posed taking specie they would be requested to withdraw their
accounts. The premium on specie, whether gold or silver,
was from Ito l per cent. The news from England, when
it shall be received, that the bills and bonds have got into ready
circulation here, will be among the most welcome, probably,
that has ever reached the trading'community of New York.
To the casualties under which our commerce with America
is suffering, has been added one in another department of our
trade—that with the East Indies, which is little inferior to it
in importance. We refer to the stoppage of the eminent
house of Alarjoribanks and Ferrers, which has taken place to-
day, and has added much to the distrust about private credit
which before prevailed, especially as this is the second great
house in that line which has stopped during the week. The
cause generally assigned is the large operations in tea and silk,
which have been fur a long time past of a most ruinous de-
scription.— Times.

HOUSE OF LORDS.--(THIS DAY.)

The LORD CHANCELLOR, Lord BROUGHAM, and the Duke
of MONTROSE, sat to-day to hear appeals.
Their Lordships were occupied the whole morning with the
further arguments in the part-heard case of Austell v. Cham-
bers, which had not concluded when our reporter left.

VICE-CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.)

The VICE-CHANCELLOR was occupied the whole day with
hearing exceptions, of no public interest.

TAYLOR V. RUNDELL.
Upon the application of Mr. KNIGHT, his Honour appointed
this case for hearing on Friday next. The question in this
case is, whether certain mines in North America, the pro-
perty of the late Duke of York, passed under a particular
grant. The case is one that has made some little noise, and
the decision in which is most important to the creditors of the
late Duke of York.

To the ELECTORS of WESTMINSTER

BROTIIER ELECTORS,-Sir Francis Burdett has accepted
the challenge publicly given by the Liberal electors of West-
minster, and has defied you to a contest of principle. It is
my duty to redeem the pledge which I also have given ; and
on this, the first vacancy in your representation, to afford you
an opportunity of choosing between those Liberal principles
which Sir Francis Burdett once gloriously maintained with
your aid, and those directly contrary opinions which he now
upholds with the assistance of the old and uncompromising
opponents of every Reform.
No one who has read Sir Francis Burdett's letter can doubt
the nature of the struggle upon which we are now entering.
On one side are all Reformers. Whigs as well as Radicals--
all the supporters of what Sir Francis Burdett designates as
" a weak and vacillating Administration." On the other side
is the whole force of the Tory party, leagued together in
support of a candidate who would once have felt himself dis-
honoured by their alliance. It is for you to decide which shall
prevail.
Your obedient humble servant,
JOHN TEMPLE LEADER.

KING'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.)

SAXON U. CASTLE ANH ANOTHER.
This was an action for an illegal arrest, excluding the word
" malicious," upon a warrant of attorney, before the time of
payment bad arrived, and for a larger sum than was due. The
first plea was not guilty, and the second was that the arrest
was not made before the time of payment. The case had been
tried before Lord Denman at the Guildhall sittings, and a ver-
dict had for the plaintiff—damages, 201.
A rule for liberty to move an arrest of judgment had been
subsequently obtained on the ground that the word " mali-
cious" should have been averred in the declaration, inasmuch as
there had been a misrepresentation to the Master that the costs
had been taxed, upon which the Master had made his alloca-
tion, and the writ was sued out.
I Counsel for the plaintiff having been heard against the rule,
The COURT was of opinion that there was no ground for a
notlsuit or a new trial, but thought the omission of the aver-
ment of " malicious" in the declaration entitled the defendant
to a rule in arrest of judgment.

BAIL COURT.
No case came on for hearing in this Court up to the time
of our going to press.

COMMON PLEAS.-(T HIS DAY.)

(Sittings in Banco. )
YOUNG V. COLE.

This was an action on an assumpsit for money had and re-
ceived, and for work and labour by commission on the pur-
chase of Guatamala Bonds. The case was tried at Guildhall
before the Lord Chief Justice during the sittings after last
Term, when a verdict was had for the plaintiff. Sir F. Pol-
lock on a former day obtained a rule to show cause why the
verdict should not be set aside, or a nonsuit entered.
Mr. Sergeant WILDE (with whom was Mr. OGLE) now
showed cause against the rule.
Mr. ROBINSON was heard in reply, and had not concluded
his arguments when our reporter left.

UNION-HALL.

• Yesterday John Webster, a man of respectable appear-
ance, carrying on the business of a tack-maker, in Cathe-
rine-street, Lambeth, was brought before Mr. TRAILL and
Mr. JEREMY, charged with committing a rape on Mary
Ann Timms, a child under ten years of age, the daughter
of a portrait-painter, residing nearly opposite to the house
occupied by the accused.
Mr. Thompson, a surgeon, of Lambeth-wa'k, who was
called in to examine the child on the preceding day, gave
such evidence as to leave no doubt that she had been vio-
lated, and, in addition, that she was then labouring under a
loathsome disease.

The prisoner denied the accusation. After some further
evidence,

Mr. Thompson, the surgeon, requested to examine the
prisoner in the private room, as it had been given in evi-
dence that the child was then labouring under syphilis.
This having been done, that gentleman afterwards stated
that the prisoner was then afflicted with a similar disease.

The prisoner was committed on the capital charge, the
Magistrate telling him, in answer to his application, that
bail would not be taken for his appearance to answer the
offence.

The surrounding districts have entirely isolated themselves,

in which Austria intimated that it would, according to cir-

As the Bordeaux Journals do not contain any news
from that city, we may infer that order, which had been

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY , TWELVE O'CLOCK.

We have received Gibraltar Chronicles to Aug. 22.
The following has been handed to us as the substance of
the intelligence brought by her Majesty's steamer Medea,
which left Barcelona on the evening of the 18th inst. :

" The Admiral had accounts from Malta to the 7th. The
cholera was subsiding—only 40 deaths a day. The Asia is
hourly expected from the coast.
" The situation of Catalonia is very unsatisfactory. The
people were in the dark about the events in the provinces.
Carlists bands were within a league of Barcelona, so that
it was unsafe to venture out to any distance from the walls.
" The Catalonians had heard of the contemplated treaty
with England, and considered its stipulations highly in-
jurious to their interests, and announced their determina-
tion to resist them.

" Apprehensions were entertained for the safety of Sa-
ragosa, but nothing was known of the particular band by
which that capital was threatened.
" The Admiral and his fleet were expected to be off
Malta about the middle of September. Prince de Join-
ville arrived in the Bay on board the Hercule, and was re-
ceived with military honours."
The Transit steamer has brought the Lisbon papers of
the 25th ult., which contain a manifesto to the nation by
the Cortes, which passed on the 22d. These papers state
that 15,000 patriots, well armed and disciplined, were fully
determined to defend Lisbon against the Charterists.
We hare this moment read a private letter from Lisbon
of the 28th ult., stating that on the 25th the army com-
manded by the Marshal Saldanlma and the Duke of Ter-
ceira, to the number of 1,500 men, appeared before Lisbon
on the 25th ; but in consequence of the lines being de-
fended by 17,000 men, they were afraid to make as attack,
and retreated towards Villa Franca, where they found
themselves between two divisions, one commanded by
General Bomfim, and the other just arrived from the
Alemtejo. If the latter division remains firm to the Go-
vernment, the Charterists will be annihilated.

MONTHLY MA GA ZINE.

There is an entertaining article in this Number,
headed " Tableaus from Sporting Life," which lets
us into many of the most hidden mysteries of the
Turf and the Gambling-house. The description of a
night at Crockford's, in particular, and of the presiding
genius of that immaculate establishment, is evidently
the production of one well acquainted with all that he
has undertaken to describe. The article is written
with point and spirit, and the occasional reflections in
which the writer indulges arc creditable to his sense of
justice. The review of " Dr. Shepherd's Life of
Bracciolini" is from the pen of Mr. Barker—one of
the most classical scholars of the day. It is replete
with curious knowledge, drawn from the most recon-
dite sources. " English Literature in France" gives
a minute statistical account of the number and success
of the recent republications of English works in
Paris. Bulwer and Captain Marryat are just now, it
seems, the two most popular names in literary France.
" Song of Seville" is a graceful little poem, from the
pen of Mr. F. Bayley ; and " Napoleon the Second"
a spirited translation from the French of Victor Hugo.

Viscount Palmerston and Sir Robert and Lady Gar-
diner are expected to join the royal dinner party this evening.
At four o'clock this afternoon the Queen and her illus-
trious guests left the Castle on horseback, and attended by
a numerous suite, proceeded from the grand entrance by
the long walk into the great park, where the royal party
rode for upwards of two hours.
The Duke of Argyll did not join the royal party, but took
an airing through Eton and Slough in a pony-phaeton and
pair.
Their Majesties of Belgium are expected to leave on

THAMES OFFICE.

Yesterday Martin Flinn (the elder), Michael Flinn,
and Thomas Flinn, were brought before Mr. BRODERIP
for re-examination, on a charge of burglariously entering
the Rainbow public-house, in Queen-street, Ratcliffe, and
stealing ten silver spoons, 5/. in money, some wearing
apparel, and other articles, the property of Hannah Hick-
man, the landlady.
The prisoners all declared their innocence.
Mr. BRODERIP said he should not part with the pri-
soners, but send them for trial at the next Sessions. He
ordered the witnesses to be bound over, and expressed
his intention of pursuing the inquiry further ; for which
purpose the Flinns will be examined again.

CORONERS' INQUESTS.

'esterday a Coroner's ;Inquest was taken before Mr.
Payne, at the Horse-shoe, Ireland-yard, Blackfriars, on
the body of a male infant, the illegitimate child of Mary
Anne Lockyear, of No. 4, Ireland-yard.

Mr. W. Ponton, surgeon, No. 22, Ludgate-hill, said that
he continued to attend the deceased from the time he was
first called upon. He did not know her previously. She
had plenty of milk to support the deceased, but a week or
two ago, as he was informed, the father of the child called
upon the mother, when she upbraided him on account of
the situation in which she was placed. They had some
words. The effect, however, of the interview was to de-
stroy the child's natural sustenance.
The Coroner said that he was aware of the tendency of
the doctor's evidence: but the circumstances were so pecu-
liar that he thought it incumbent on him to submit the
case to a jury of the neighbours. The surgeon had sword
that death was not the effect of the child being placed in
the dust-hole, but that it had arisen from natural causes.—
Verdict, " Natural death "
ACCIDENT.—An inquest was taken yesterday afternoon,
at St. George's Hospital, before Mr. Higgs, on view of the
body of Henry Macklin, aged twenty-eight, who met with
an accident at Kensington.
It appeared that on the 25th of August the deceased
was getting up on one of Mr. Simpson's Isleworth omni-
buses, when, missing his hold, he fell to the ground upon
his head. The omnibus was standing at a public-house at
Kensington. He was promptly removed to St. George's
Hospital, being in a state of collapse. He died on the 3d
of September. On a pest mortent examination the skull
was found to be fractured in several places.—Verdict,
" Accidental death."
