TWO FREEHOLD BRICK-BUILT VILLA RESIDENCES,
well finished and pleasantly situate,
Nos. 3 and 4, PARK PLACE, HIGHBURY VALE,
offering excellent accommodation to moderate-sized families, with
neat inclosed fore-courts and walled gardens, well planted, let to
Mr. Lewis and Mr. Bradley, most excellent tenants at 401. per
annum, presenting a secure and eligible investment ; also, four
capital houses,
Noa. 4 and 5, PAGET-PLACE, and Nos. 5 and 6, DUKE-

STREET,
in the Waterloo-road. The houses are substantially built, well
situate for letting, and are capable of producing, at the lowest esti-
mate, 100/. a year, held for an unexpired term of 20 years, at 10
guineas a year only.

ain
TWO particularly well-builtAg and very agreeable FREEHOLD
ABODES, Nos, 1 and 2, HARRIET COTTAGES, pleasantly
situate in the

DENMARK-ROAD, CAMBERWELL.
A very casual observer will not be slow to discover that these neat
abodes were erected with great care and expense, with a view to
durability, and to last when most of those around shall have dis-
appeared ; they are compactly built and are very complete in all
respects, respectably tenanted, and produce, at remarkably low
rents,
FIFTY-FIVE POUNDS A-YEAR CLEAR.
The neighbourhood is highly respectable, the situation extremely
healthy, and the distance rendered nothing, by means of the nume-
rous conveyances constantly passing; to the above, and many other
advantages, it may be added, that these abodes will give to the
purchaser
TWO VOTES FOR THE COUNTY OF SURREY.
And to conclude, a particularly well secured Improved Rent or
INCOME OF 1621. A-YEAR for 18 YEARS,
derived from a capitally built substantial House, situate in the
" HEART OF THE CITY OF LONDON,"
No. 7, IRONMONGER-LANE, CHEAPsIDE,
being in close alliance with the Bank, Guildhall, and the site
whereon the new Royal Exchange will soon be erected ; the house
is in a thorough and handsome state of repair throughout, 400 i.
having been expended very lately upon it it is parcelled out into
chambers to men of the first respectability and substantiality,
which from the commencement have never remained one hour un-
tenanted.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

HATTON-GARDEN.
Yesterday TV. J. Browbeater, a druggist, late of the Vaux-
hall-road, aged 26, and Mary Ann Walters, about 19 years of
age, were brought up in custody, charged by Mr. John Peters,
wholesale cigar- dealer, of Marchmont-street, the latter with
hiving stolen a quantity of cigars, value tis., and the former
with having received the same, knowing them to have been
stolen.

The prisoner said that he was going to 13,istol to a good
situation that day, and be merely called to see "IW-try" before
he went. He was formerly in respectable business himself,
and, visits to the house being objectionable, he would not
enter the house from motives of delicacy.
Mr. BURRELL ultimately discharged the gentleman, and re-
manded the other prisoner until Thursday.
Air. Peters expressed his displeasure at the discharge of
the male prisoner and the committal of the servant, saying
that because he was respectable he was discharged ; and as
he was discharged he was determined not to come forward to
prosecute the girl, or have her punished. The parties then
quitted the office.

CORONER'S INQUEST.

REFUSAL OF A JURY TO ALLOIA OF A 'POST MORTEN!

ERAMINATION.

On Monday evening an inquisition was taken before
Mr. Wakley, M.P., Coroner, at the Swan Tavern, Old
lirompton, on view of the body of Miss Charlotte
Goring, a maiden lady, 39 years of age.
The jury having been sworn, and Mr. Samuel Carter
Hail (the author) chosen as foreman, the evidence
teas proceeded with, from which it appeared that deceased
was to have 'ken married in a fortnight to a gentleman
who had on Saturday taken a house in Wilton-place.
The servant of deceased said the last time she saw
the deceased alive was about half-past two o'clock
on Saturday morning, when she called her, saying
she wanted a little hot brandy and water, as she
felt very poorly. She wade her a small glassful
of brandy and water, which she took up to her in
bed. She then left her, and did not again see her
alive. About ten o'clock, or half-past, the same morn-
ing she knocked at the door of deceased's bedroom►
which was locked on the inside, but received no answer.
Conceiving she was asleep she did not continue her ap-
plication for admittance, but afterwards repeated it dur-
ing the day up to about half-past three o'clock, when
she became alarmed, and forced open the door ; when,
on entering the room, she found the deceased sitting
on a chair by the side of the fireplace in a lolling posi-
tion, with her bead over the back of the chair. She
was quite dead. About a spoonful of blood had oozed
out of the deceased's mouth ; and a glass, which witness
believes to have been the same in which the brandy
and water was given to the deceased, was lying on the
floor broken to pieces by the side of the chair. Dr.
Elliott was then sent for, who immediately attended,
and pronounced that deceased had been dead some
hours. Deceased had not been out of the house for a
fortnight. The gentleman to whom the deceased was
to have been married resides in London. She, however,
had not seen him for the last fortnight. She did not
think the deceased had taken anything deleterious, nor
had she found anything wrong in the room. Deceased
had left no will to her knowledge. Her property was.
to witness's belief, at her own disposal. Believes de-
ceased died a natural death.

The CORONER then, at considerable length, ad-
dressed the jury on the propriety of a post morton ex-
amination of the body being made before they could ar-
rive at a just conclusion as to the cause of the deceased's
death, but the jury expressed themselves satisfied, and
returned a verdict of " Natural death."

Mr. WAKLEY (while signing the inquisition) said
--
I sign this gentlemen, because it is my duty to do so.
It is your verdict and not mine. You will hereafter
see the great benefits to society at large to be derived
from post nzortenz examinations in such cases as this.

THE WEATHER AND THE HARVEST.—The
two notices on this subject in another part of our pa-
per are retrospective, and should have appeared when
they were penned. An extraordinary change has taken
place in the weather, which for the last three or four
days has been as warm as in Spring. Our glass this
morning marks 62, and the day is altogether more like
a fine warm April day, with a bright sun and an occa-
sional short sweet shower. Our accounts from the
country, as well as from Ireland, &c., present a che-
quered picture. The Dublin Evening Post received
to-day, for instance, says, " We have had glorious
weather since Saturday, and we look with some confi-
dence to the salvation of the potato crop, us well as to
the partial recovery of much of the damaged corn,"
while the Register and Packet supply dreadful ac-
counts of the state of the harvest in Sligo, Meath,
Louth, &c., where a great deal of rain has again fallen.
A correspondent writing from Ferns, says, " Corn is
only in a few instances cut down, and this might as
well be standing, for it is as green as when it was ; and
what is very melancholy, almost in all instances the cut
down and standing corn is sending out a second growth.
I saw one field of wheat in stacks, and numbers of men
were employed in taking off the green sprouts that had
shot out from the corn. The most gloomy anticipations
are entertained, and certainly not without the strongest
reasons. There is nothing like a sufficiency of turf, in
consequence of the wet season ; and those who are not
fortunate enough to possess fuel on their own land, are
in a truly pitiable state.
A SLIGHT DIFFERENCE.—At one of the late
Old Bailey Sessions a man was convicted of kissing
little girl under 12 years of age, and senteneed to be
imprisoned for the offence, in the House of Correction,
for one month. Yesterday the driver of a Kensington
omnibus was charged, at Union-Hall, with taking the
most scandalons liberties" (using the words of the
Magistrate) with a young woman on an omnibus, and
then throwing her from the top with great violence on
her back, in consequence of which she was stunned, and
on reviving, felt sore all over the body. The outrage
was distinctly sworn to by the complainant, and a woman
who happened to be passing. The punishment inflicted
by Mr. Jeremy was a penalty of ;20s.
FACILITY Of TR4NSIT.—Meh are tl.l gTeCtt
improvements in navigation, that the expense of send-
ing the fleece to London from Australia, a distance of
15,000 miles, is not more than 31d. per lb., including
freight, brokerage, commission, dock and landing charges,
while the expense of transmitting German or Spanish
wools tp rigland is from 4d. to 41d. per lb.--,,F,cutb

EVENING EDITION.

DUTCH AND GERMAN PAPERS.

TILE Ilanua, Ocr. 6.—Prince Joseph de Chimay,
Minister Plenipotentiary of the King of the Belgians
to the Court of the Netherlands, arrived here on the
evening of the 4th of October.
The Java Courant, of the 12th June, has a report,
dated the 11 th, which states that accounts from Ter-
rate say, that on the 25th of March last there had been
a violent eruption of the volcano in that island about
four o'clock in the afternoon. It was preceded by a
noise like thunder, or the discharges of heavy artillery.
. AMSTERDAM, OCT. 7.—The Groningen Courant
gives an account of the death of Professor Jansen
Brinck, whose death is much regretted.
BERLIN, SEPT. 25.—The authors of the great rob-
bery in the Royal Cabinet, committed a considerable
time ago, have been discovered. A whole band of
thieves and receivers have been concerned, among
whom the principal are a goldsmith, a barber, and
several Jews. The first discovery of the thieves was made
in Posen, on the finding of some valuables stolen from
a jeweller in that city. A letter to one of the persons
accused gave further information, and the whole band
has been secured ; all the precious stones have been
found buried in the ground near Berlin ; the gold and
platina articles, which were conveyed to Posen, have
probably been melted down there, and a7e for ever lost
to the Cabinet of Natural Curiosities.
BERLIN, SEPT. 29.—Not only our military men, but
politicians in general, take much interest in the intro-
duction of percussion guns into the army. It appears
that by means of the percussion-caps a soldier may dis-
charge ten balls in a minute. Now, on the one hand,
military men ask, where shall the soldier get such a
quantity of ammunition ? In a few minutes he will
expend all his stock, and then he will be at the mercy
of the cavalry ; and, on the other hand, the friend of
humanity asks, what will war become if any individual
can kill ten men in a minute? The two questions are
Itoo serious, and lie too much out of our way to be
discussed in a newspaper ; but they deserve attention
ii ;ti an age which takes for its motto the words Science
an 4 Humanity.

the most satisfactory results, enabling persons to hear vocal, musical,

unfelt, and are inserted and removed with the greatest facility. Great
benefit has 'ven derived from his Patent A MBER SPECTACLES in
all cases of defective vision, and which have received the sanction
and unqualified approval of the principal Medical and Scientific au-
thorities in Europe; among whom may be enumerated Sir James An.

unblushing effrontery "newly-invented Spectacle Lenses," which
are nothing mere than the commonest glass pink-shaded, professing
to relieve imperfect vision, deafness, and cataract without operation.
These glasses are highly prejudicial to the sight. The names of
some apothecaries and others are set forth to sanction this untrnth
and absurd quackery, that the public may be deceived into a belief of
their very extraordinary powers. 'I his fact may be proved by apply.

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 9.

The Government Secretary read his promised grounds
of dissent from the insertion of the item for the Colonial
agent :

- I dissent from tl:e sense of the Court, in resl•eet to
-the provi,i,m rtim!e on the estimate for William
Holmes, Eul. _ _

Ist.—Becange the duties of the office are undefined,
and the performance of them, rendered irrespective of
any competent authority ; its transactions known only-
to a section of the Lc,;:s!ature, and to a section of:the
Combined Cciirt, and the title of the office is an incor-
rect description of the representative_ characte r conferred
upon Mr. Holmes.

2d.— Because the expense of the office should be
borne solely by that portion of the community whose
interests arc represented by Mr. Holmes, and not by
the public at large.
ad.—Because unnecessary inconvenience and em-
barrassment will i)e occasioned to the local Government,
executive and legislative, should the example of nomi-
nating paid agents lit England be imitated by each of
the various classes of the inhabitants of British Guiana.

4th...—llecauAe it is the creation of an office by an
irregular mod., an encroachment on the prerogative of
the Sovercign ; an usurpation on the authority of the
Legislature, and is, in my opinion, in open disregard of
the pleasure of the Sovereign, as implied in the de-
spatches on the table of the Court, addressed to the late
Governor by the • present Right Honourable Secretary
of State.

FRASER'S MAGAZINE.

There is a curious article in the present number of
this Magazine, entitled " Hazlitt in Switzerland, a
Conversation," in which the author, Captain Medwin,
putsinto Hazlitt's mouth opinions most derogatory, not
only to the public, but also to the private, character of
Lord Byron. Now, supposing that Hazlitt really gave
utterance to these opinions, and that Captain Medwin's
recollection has not, at this distance of time, led him
into error—it is to be lamented that the author of
" Table-talk" has allowed himself to be guilty of such
flagrant, such pitiable inconsistency, for in his published
works he everywhere speaks of Byron with the respect
due to his transcendent genius. He is here, however,
made tosay, "Do you remember his Lordship's panegyric
on the diamond in Werter ? He there writes eon amore.
What he did for the Greeks was for ostentation, not dis-
interestedness, or love of liberty. He took good care to
have good security before he embarked, and was repaid
to the last dollar. He married from mercenary
motives. His subscription to the Maid of Athens
was mean. He would never have been the poet
he was, but for Wordsworth and Southey. He knew
that, and therefore abused them." What malignant
drivel is all this! Southey instruct Byron in the art of
poetry ! Wordsworth teach him how to write a Childe
Harold or a Don Juan ! It is with difficulty we can
conceive that a man like Hazlitt could ever talk such
nonsense. It is the fashion of the day, however, to
abuse Lord Byron—to discover that he was a mere
scrawler of common-place—a point which our small
critics are constantly insisting on. Just so was it in
Sam Johnson's days. No sooner had that fine old lion
died, than every ass ventured to have a kick at him.
But in spite of all this petty opposition, Byron will live,
as Pope outlives the dunces who attacked him. He
may not reach posterity in the shape of seventeen vo-
lumes, but assuredly his fourth canto of Childe
Harold, and the five first of Don Juan, are immortal.
" Talleyrand" is a spirited, piquant sketch of the
public career of this eminent politician. In the
justice of much of it we acquiesce ; but as a whole it
is too prejudiced. " Blue-Friar Pleasantries" contains
some smart, sarcastic hitting at the prevalent absurd
mania for converting our theatres into so many menage-
ries. " Selections from the Diary of a Traveller in the
Alps" is well-written in point of style, but the subject is
hacknied beyond redemption.
London, England, 1839-03-04

TAIT'S MAGAZINE.

The first article in this Number is entitled a " A
New Remedy for the Distresses of Ireland," and is
written in a temperate and sagacious spirit. The chief
position which the author endeavours to establish is,
that the system of landed tenure which obtains in Ire-
land, is the cause of all the evils, social, political, com-
mercial, and otherwise, which afflict the Sister country ;
and that the remedy is to be found in the introduction
of the old Norman tenure as it exists up to the present
day in one or two of the Channel Islands. The writer
who signs himself " A Guernsey Correspondent" is evi-
dently well informed on his subject. " Tooke's His-
tory of Prices" is a notice of one of those sprightly,
fascinating publications of which Utilitarians and poli-
tical economists are so fond. We endeavoured to go
through it, but its awful arithmetical calculations
startled us on the threshold. " Widow Barnaby" is a
capital criticism, containing many well-selected extracts,
on Airs, Trollope's lately published novel of that name—
by far the best she has yet written. " Australian Emigra-
tion" is a useful and seasonabledigest of some of the more
recent works in this popular theme." Blanche Delamere"
improves as it proceeds. Tho heroine is drawn with
much spirit, and has a spice of originality about her. Not
less piquant is the sketch of her old aristocratic grand-
mother. In the " Postscript Political," our sturdy Ra-
dical friend Tait gives some sound advice to the Char-
tists, which, however, we despair of their following.

COWES, ISLE OF WIGHT.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
Arrived for orders the brig Science, Rowlands, with
coffee and passengers from the Cape of Good Hope in
59 days. Two men, one woman, and one child came
home in her, who, with 73 others, were wrecked in the
Dunlop, in Table Bay, on the 24th of November last.
Arrived, and came into harbour to discharge,
the American bark Ledu, Ciiptain Bochner, from
it';_s port to New York, with hides, elscharged here
from t;,: Brazil packet ; she sailed on the. iCl.th inst.,
and bad been :.la but two days, when sh: sprung a leak, i
which'eontinued n6:easing, till in crossing the Bay of
Biscay she made so much water that they were obliged
to bear up and run back. They saw the Dutch East
Indiaman Jacob Cats (also from this port), off Ushant,
on Thursday last.
The Harmony, which was on shore near Brook, was
got off last night, and towed into this harbour to-day.
The barges sent round on Sunday, to endeavour to save
the cargo, on account of the swell, could not succeed in
that object ; and the wind having moderated, and come
more off the land, no time waslost in throwing as much
as possible of the cargo overboard, (About 70 tons
were thus discharged.) She had washed over the Flat-
ners in on the sandy beach, and an attempt was made to
heave her off when lightened, which failed, the anchors
sent round not being heavy enough. Another vessel
took others round on Monday night, with which, and
300 fathoms of cable, she was got afloat. Every assis-
tance was rendered by Captain Sims and the Coast
Guard. indeed, had not the wind shifted, nothing
could have saved her ; and Captain Abbot, who had
charge of her, is highly praised for his promptness, and
the (gnat exertions he mad to get her afloat.. The sea
