PAULETT V. THE CORPORATION OF STAMFORD.

It will be recollected that thi: was an action by the
Stamford Corporation for the purpose of recovering the
amount of certain tolls to be taken at May Fair, held in
the Borough of Stamford. The facts of the case which
we gave at the trial were shortly these. In the 13th year
of the reign of Queen Anne, her Majesty g.anted a Char-
ter to the Corporation of Stamford, enabling them to hold
two additional fairs within the borough ; one on the
Monday immediately following Candlemas-day, and the
other, the tolls of which were in dispute, on the fol-
lowing Monday. The Charter• was preceded by a
writ of ad quod damnum, for the purpose of as-
certaining whether those two additional fairs would
he injurious to those which were already in exist-
ence. The return of that writ stated they would not, and
the Charter issued. The Charter gave permission to hold
the fairs, taking tolls, and pickage, and stallage, hold a
Court of Pie Poudre, together with all other privileges
app,rtaining to fairs and markets, but did not spe-
cify the amount of tolls to he taken. The defendant con-
tended that the emission of the amount of the toll was
fatal to the Charter, which must be taken as void on ac-
count of its uncertainty. The matter was argued in a
special case before all the Barons of the Exchequer in
Easter Term, and on the first day of the present term
judgment was given by the Lord Chief B iron in favour of
the Corporation, from which judgment the present writ
of error was brought.

Ml'. CHILTERN moved that the case should be set down
for argument.

Lord TENTERDEN, after consulting with the Lord
Chancellor and the Chief Justice of the Common Pleas,
ordered the argument to stand for next term.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.
DAVIS V. GAILREIT.

On a former day cause had been shown against a rule
obtained for a new trial in this action, in which a verdict
had been returned in favour of the plaintiff. The action,
it will be remembered, arose out of the loss of a barge
on its passage to one of the Irish ports, upon an agree-
ment between the parties that it should proceed to its
place of destination in " the direct, usual, and customary
way." The master, owing to the tempestuous state of
the weather, had considerably diverged from his direct
course, and the consequence was the loss of the vessel.
It was contended on behalf of the defendant, that a similar
accident might have occurred even in case the direct
course marked out in the agreement had bean strictly
followed.

The LORD CIIIEF JUSTICE, in stating the decision of
the Court this morning, said, that the law would not ad-
mit of a wrong-doer apportioning or limiting his own
wrong, and that, therefore, their Lordships were unani-
mously of opinion that the rule for a new trial ought to
be discharged, and judgment be given for the plaintiff.

WAYS AND MEANS.

On the Order of the Day for going into a Com-
mittee of Ways and Means being read,
Mr. SLANEY expressed a hope that the Chan-
cellor of the Exchequer would permit him to name
some evening when there was a probability of his
Bill (the Employment for the Labouring Poor Bill)
being taken into further consideration. He thought
Friday might be allowed for that purpose.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
said that Friday was Supply Day, and there yet
remained a considerable number of votes to be dis-
posed of. The lion. and Learned Gentleman need
not, however, be under any apprehension that pro-
per time would not be afforded him for the object
he had described.

L A MBETH.STREET.

A man came to Mr. .WALKER, and made the
following application to him:-" Sir, I want to
know by what authority I was yesterday pushed
about by the new police, more like a beast than a
man ?"
Mr. WALKER asked on what occasion he had been
so treated ? Applicant—Why, Sir, yesterday I

went to hear the word of God preached by the
Rev. G. C. Smith, in the open air, in Wentworth-
street, but before he began, the police, like a pack
of ravenous wolves, rushed upon us poor innocent
lambs, and drove us away.. One great tall police-
man drove me before him, and I:want to know wile=
then he had any authority for so -doing. The man
went on to say that he had been a most wicked and
depraved character, but he had lately reformed, and
had "gone. a preaching." lie then turned to the
officer in waiting, and said, "Do not you know
me ?" and on being answered in the negative, re-
plied, " Lord bless you, 1, have been locked up
in your lock-up rooms many a time. I was in the
habit of being continually drunk, and was, in fact,
a complete wretch; but, praised be God, I have
lately built a chapel, and am now determined to
pass my whole life in endeavouring to reform my.
countrymen."
Mr. WALKER was of opinion that the police had
done no more than their duty, and advised the ap-
plicant,
if lie ever wished to hear the word of God,
to go to some fitter place than Wentworth-street,
and then the police would not interrupt him.

THE FUNDS,--(THIS DAY).

CITY, TWELVE n'CL OCR:
To the present hour we have no express from Paris, nor
is there any other arrival of the least consequence, which
causes a great dearth of intelligence this morning. Ths
speech of the Duke Fitxjames in the French House of Peers
is much admired. The next arrivals from the French
capital may bring the New Ministry, with the appoint.
rnents of the Ambassadors to the Foreign Courts but
there being no post-office express, it is considered i that
nothing of consequence has yet taken place.
Consols, which left off yesterday at 911 for the account-,
opened this morning at the same price; they have been
done at 91* but at present they are at the former price,
with little or nothing doing.
In the Foreign Market scarce a bargain has been done,
and the prices are nominal.

Charter? That of Louis XVIII., that which Charles X. '
meant to re-establish by the ordinances of July 25, or
that which the Chambers have just presented for the oath
of the new King ? It is to make mockery of an intelli-
gent nation, to present, under serious forms, so silly a
ceremony, so insignificant a formality."
On Monday evening the Queen received a great number
of ladies, amongst whom were the widows of Marshals
Ney, Davoust, and Suchet.
A party for resisting the national wish, which had
formed itself near Segre, at the instigation of some agents
of the Polignac administration, has been dispersed by Gen.
Brenelpoint, from Angers, and General Dminadieu, from
Tours, who were ordered to march upon that point. Such
of the Chiefs as have not been arrested have taken to flight.
Several propositions have been laid upon the table of
the Chamber of Deputies by different Hon. Members,—
One by Baron Mercier, recommends the adoption of the
following se the form of the oath to be taken by all the
officers of the kingdom :

4' Art. I. Al! the functionaries, administrative and
judicial, shall take the oath of fidelity to the King of the
French, obedience to the constitutional charter, and to the
laws of the kingdom.

" Art. 2. Ail other forms are abrogated."
On Wednesday, the 28th ult., an Ambassador, living
near the hotel of the Minister for Foreign Affairs, seeing
the street and boulevards filled with troops, wrote to the
Prince de Polignac to ask for a guard, in order that the
servants of the Embassy might go out without danger.--
" 1 have no time to write to the Ambassador," said the
Prince to the hearer of the letter ; " but you may assure
him that all this is nothing; in two hours every thing
will he quiet."
The mails which arrive at Paris announce that in all the
towns which they traverse by night, where the elevation
of the Duke of Orleans to the throne is known, they find
illuminations, and the inhabitants are transported with joy.
On the 2d of August the mail was stopped at Brest by
the Procureur du ltoi, who threatened to shoot the con-
ducteur if he slid not lay aside the national colours, which
he wore. The inhabitants answered the threats of the
Procureur by offering to the conducteur an escort of 200 men.

HEREFORD MAIL.

The London and Hereford mail was upset yesterday
morning, at Tapley, about one mile and a half from this
city. We are happy to state that, although it was full
inside end out, none of the passengers received any serious
injury. There were two ladies in the inside, who have
escaped with a slight scratch on the face and a few light
bruiser. The coachman was thrown to a considerable
distance, but fortunately escaped unhurt. One of the
horses is very much injured. The accident arose from one
Of the fore wheels coining off, and not the least negligence
or blame can be imputed to any one.

ASSIZES-(RCCEIVED THIS DAY.)

OXFORD CIRCUIT.—HEREFORD, Ann. 13.
The Judges arrived in this City last night, and opened
the commission. This morning their Lordships attended
Divine Service at the Cathedral, and after wards commenced
the business of the Assize, which is unusually light, there
Wog Only seven causes entered for trial, and but one Special
441 Which is an action of ejectment.
The calendar is also exceedingly light, and contains the
Upp. of only twenty-one prisoners for the county, and
two for the city. The following is a summary of the
.Offences with which they are charged. Forgery, two;
beetle-Stealing, one; burglary, one; housebreaking, seven ;
sheep-stealing, one; manslaughter, one ; stealing in a dwell-
ing-house above the value of W., one ; larceny, nine.
It is a remarkable circumstance that when orders were
Ikon for the printing of the calendar, there were only
three prisoners committed; whilst it was at the printer's
twenty were committed for trial, and since it has been
Printed, there have been eight more committals; so that
the total number for trial at the present Assizes is thirty-
One.
Ijk APPeare that out of 87 prisoners confined in the gaol
,Write, ,various terms of imprisonment, 21 can read and

conclusion of the syssion. The examinations are oral, and
by written answers to a series of questions: by the latter
the prizes and certificates of honours are determined. The
proprietors Live been already informed of the method th.t
is followed in awarding these distinctions, by the account

which Was published of the distribution of the prizes at
the close of the last session.

The prizes consisted of gold and silver medals, or of
books, according to the wishes of the different Professor,.
The exainin%tions at the close of the last session proved,
to the satisfaction of all who attended them, that the Pro-
fessors had zealously discharged their duties, and that the
system of teaching which h.rd been adopted was very
efficient.

In the " Second Statement by the Council," published
immediately before the opening of the University, it was
intimated that "besides certificates of tte Professors, the
University will grant certificates of general proficiency in
literature and cience." The Professors are very desirous
that this intention of the Council should be carded into
effect, as they are of opinion that it will prove a very be-
neficial stimulus to the students in all the classes, and that
the obtaining of such a certificate will be a substantial
advantage to the medical students in particular. The
Council are now engaged in considering the qualifications
and conditions upon which such certificate shall be granted,
and the title by which it shall be designated in the scveral
branches.

Before concluding this branch of the Report, the Csun-
cl, on the part of themselves and of the Professors, ear-
restly request the Proprietors to visit the classes, and to
invite their friends to do the same. The progress of the
University will be rapid in proportion as it becomes better
known ; and there is no way so effectual for that purpose
as by the frequent visits of strangers, and the report, they
carry into their respective circles of acquaintance of what
they have witnessed. The Council have given such orders
to the door-keepers as afford every facility of adinis.ion to
the lecture rooms, without disturbing the Professor in the
business of his class.

LIBRARY.

The number of volumes added to the library during the
last year is 2,5.27, of which 1,970 have been purchased,
and 557 have been donations. The total number of vo-
lumes belonging to the University is 9,027. The council
would gladly hare announced a larger addition, but pru-
dential considerations hare limited the purchases. The
books which have been bought are such as are the must
wanted for consultation by the students in the course of
their education at the University. It is proper to remind
the proprietors that so numerous a body may very effec-
tually promote the objects of the institution by a very
trifling sacrifice from their private collections.

Among the donations which have been received during
the last year, the Council have to mention the Cata'ogue
of Maps, Plans, &c., in the Royal Library at the British
Museum, presented to the University by the Trustees, and
the Catalogue of Books i❑ the Royal Library, presented
by the late sir Frederick Barnard, the librarian of that
splendid collection. Every acknowledgment is due to the
Trustees of the British Museum, for facilities afforded to
the students of the University.
The establishment of the Ricardo library of political
economy was announced at the last annual meeting ; 450
volumes have been already collected, and a separate room
has been allotted to them.

The medical works consisting at present of 1,000
volumes, have been formed into a distinct library, as the
law books were last year. They are placed in a room
adjoining the museum of anatomy, and are accessible to
the students from nine in the morning until nine at night
—an arrangement which has proved very acceptable to the
medical students, by whom great use of this library is made.
The librarian has prepared catalogues of different kinds
to facilitate reference as touch as possible.

HULL MARKET.—Feb. 23.

There is only a moderate supply Of Wheat from the
farmers to-day, the bulk of which is only in very indif-
ferent condition ; there has been more inquiry after Wheat
generally, and the best dry parcels have commanded an
advance of Is. to 2s. per quarter over the currency of last
week, with a better sale, but at no improvement in value
on the secondary qualities. The business passing in foreign
is very limited, having very few buyers from the interior,
and the holders being sanguine of obtaining better prices,
such qualities are held at more money than the buyers think
prudeat to give at present, yet, from what is passing is.
to 2s. per quarter more is paid. Scarcely any thing pass-
ing in Oats, and no alteration in prices. New Beans a
good deal inquired after, and is. per quarter dearer, but
0141 are (lull, and unaltered in value. Barley very dull,
and even the best malting parcels are Is. per quarter
lower ; the middling qualities are almost unsaleable. The
business passing in either Rapeseed or Linseed is trifling,
and prices without alteration.

MUSEII3IS.

The museum of anatomy has been constantly receiving
additions during the last year, chiefly by the exertions of
Mr. Hind, the curator, and very full catalogues have been
made. It is open all day, and is much resorted to by the
students. Considerable additions have also been made to
the, drawings of morbid anatomy, which at present con-
sist of above SOO delineations—a collection of the hightst
value ter the purposes of teaching.
The collection of objects of natural history has not been
much increased ; and, until a proper place is prepared for
their reception, it would not be advisable to add much by
purchase. Several donations have been received in the
course of the year, a list c,f which is annexed to this report.

LONDON UNIVERSITY.

A General ?fleeting of the Proprietors of this In-
stitution was held yesterday at the lecture room
the University, for the purpose of receiving the re-
port of the Council.

The meeting was announced for one o'clock, and
at that hour there were about 150 proprietors pre-
sent. Amongst these we noticed the Duke of
Somerset, Lord King, Lord Auckland, Lord Al-
thorp, Lord Ebrington, Lord John Russell, Lord
Sandon, the Chief Baron of Scotland (Mr. Aber-
cromby), Sir H. Parnell, Dr. Lushington, Mr.
Brougham, Mr. A. Baring, Mr. Hume, Mr. Mar-
shall, Mr. J. Wood, Mr. W. Smith, Mr. Warbur-
ton, Mr. J. Fazakerley, Colonel L. Stanhope, Col.
Jones, Dr.Birkbeck, and several of the Professors of
the University.
Soon after one o'clock Lord AUCKLAND ad-
dressed the Meeting, and stated that the Council
had requested Mr. A. Baring to take the Chair,
to which request that gentleman had acceded ; he
therefore proposed that Mr. Baring should take
the chair.

Colonel JONES objected to Mr. Baring being in
the chair, not from any feeling hoatile to him indi-
vidually, but as several ipiestions were likely to be
put to the Chairman in the course of the proceed-
ings, to which he, as not being now a member of
the council, could not give an answer from his own
knowledge, and therefore would be obliged to ap-
peal to some member of the Council: to save time
and trouble in this way, he would rather that some
member of the Council should take the chair.

Lord AUCKLAND said, that he would not press
his motion against the feeling of the meeting ; but
as it was usual to ask some friend of the University
to take the chair at their meetings, he did not see
why the Hon. Gentleman whom he had proposed
should be objected to; for if any explanation were
required of any member of the Council, no doubt
some member would be very ready to give it.
Colonel JONES repeated his objection, and
Lord AUCKLAND said, that having made the
motion, it was for the Proprietors assembled to dis-
pose of it as they should think proper.
The question was then put to a show of hands,
and a large majority of the Meeting appeared in Fa•
your of Mr. Baring taking the Chair.
Lord AUCKLAND observed, that if any Proprietor
wished to propose any other gentleman to take the
Chair, the motion would receive the consideration of
the Meeting.
INo answer was made to this appeal.
Mr. BARING, on taking the Chair, said that the
first business of the Meeting was to hear the Report
of the Council read. With respect to the remark
of the lion. Proprietor (Colonel Jones), he would
say, that if any explanation were required, no doubt
it would he given by some Member of the Council
present.
The Warden (Mr. Leonard Horner) then pro-
ceeded to read the Report, which was as follows :
London, England, 1830-02-25

PROPESSMISIIIPS.

The chair of History, and that of Logic and the
snphy of the Human Mind, have been recently filled by
the appointment of Penjamin Heath Malkin, LL.D., to
the farmer, and the Rev. John Hoppus to the latter. Dr.
Malkin proposes to give next month a short course cf lec-
tures on the " Practical Uses of the Study of History." Mr.
Hoppus will not enter upon his duties until next session.

The professorships of Moral and Political Philosophy,
and of Geology and Mineralogy are still vacant.

?IOSPITAL ♦ND DISFINSARY.

The Council regret that they have been unable to take
any steps during the last year with the view to raise a fund
for the erection and maintenance of a hospital which should
be in connexion with the University.
The Dispensary has combined two objects of great uti-
lity. It has afforded relief to the surrounding poor to a
great extent, 2,492 patients baying been admitted in the
eighteen month. during which it has Lean in operation,
and it has been eminently useful to the medical students. It
is hoped that the Proprietors of the University will give
their support to this institution by small annual subscrip-
tions. By so doing they will e'onfer a great benefit upon
the surrounding district, and they will relieve the funds of
the University from the payment of a sum which at pre-
sent presses hard upon the revenue. A subscriber of one
guinea annually may always have two patients on the Dis-
pensary books.

The Council, while they do not conceal that they ex-
pected there would have been a larger increase in the
Classes of General Education in the present session, are
decidedly of op:Dion that there is good ground for sanguine
anticipations of the future prosperity of the University.
An advance has been made in the number of students
attending the general classes; a great increase has taken
place in the Medical Clasees; and the receipts from
students' fees have been largely augmented. Notwith-
standing the publicity that has been given by extensive
advertisements, it is very retnarkable how little more than
the mere existence of the University is yet known to the
people of London, even to those who reside in iss vicinity ;
and in the country it is still less known. This the Coun-
cil have had ample opportunity of ascertaining from the
❑ature of the inquiries they have been called upon to
answer. When the public are fully aware of the excel-
lence and cheapness of the education and the facility of
admission, there can be little doubt that such advantages
will not be neglected.

BUILDING.

All the work which was contracted fur has been finish-
ed; the accounts of the contractors are now in the course
of adjustment, shortly after which the balance, estimated
not to exceed 12,6001., will be paid. The plans for fit-
ting up the great library are prepared, but the Council
cannot give orders for the work to commence until the
supplemental shares are subscribed. The estimate for
finishing the great library is 2,7301., and the bookcases
will probably cost about 1,000/., so that the whole of this
expense, snaking a due allowance for extras and furniture,
will amount to a sum not exceeding 4,0001. It is in-
tended that one-half of the room shall be appropriated to
the collection of natural history, until the great museum is
fitted.up.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MANSION-HOUSE.
Messrs. Brand and Corbet waited upon the Lorin Msvort, as a
Part of a Deputation from the operative Button-makers of Bir-
mingham, to present to his Lordship a very elegant specimen of
their gilt buttons, in the expectation that his Lordship would
patronise the trade. They stated that thousands would be belie_
fitted by the extension of the trade, which the existing fashion
rendered very ►lack, and they expressed a hope that his Lordship
would wear the buttons himself; and thus give encouragement to
the multitudes whom they represented. Under such circuin_
stances they looked forward to a revival of the gilt-button trade
in the city. His Majesty, the Duke of Clarence, and several
Members of both Houses of Parliament, had been waited upon
by the Deputation, and presented with specimens, and promises
had been given of patronage by several of the most exalted ranks
in society.
The LORD MAYOR accepted of the present with great satisfac-
tion. He could not promise to wear the buttons during his
Mayoralty. as his costume was fixed to the close of his office; but
when he should have concluded his labours as Chief Magistrate,
lie should certainly do as the Deputation had requested.
Alderman VENABLES, who was present during this conversa-
tion, said lie remembered having heard Mr. Huskisson, in speak-
ing of trades, say, that it was impossible to walk without tread.
ing upon the toes of some persons. He suspected that the mo.
meat the metal buttons were patro;:ised, there would be a cry
out amongst those who made silk buttons.
The Deputation said, that all that was required was a partici-
pation. They then returned thanks to the Lord Mayor for hay.
ing so courteously received them,

DINNER TO SIR ROBERT WILSON.

A public dinner, in celebration of the re-election
of Sir R. Wilson, as a representative for the Bo-
rough of Southwark, took place yesterday at the
London Tavern. About eighty persons sat down
to table. The Chair was taken by Sir R. Wilson,
who was supported on the right by Mr. Blackett
(his proposer at the election), and on the left by
the Baron de Bissing.
The following were among the toasts of the
evening :

" The King, and the principles which seated his fa-
mily on the Throne, and may God bless him."
" The Queen and the rest of the Royal F.lmily."
" The Liberty of the Press."
" A full, fa:r, and free Representation of the People in
the Commons' House of Parliament."
Mr. BLACKETT, in proposing the health of Sir
R. Wilson, took occasion to eulogise the Hon. and
Gallant Member's character us a politician and a
mart, and congratulated the electors of Southwark
on having chosen him one of their representatives
for the fourth time,

The tumult of applause with which the toast was
received having subsided,
Sir R. WILSON mounted the table, and com-
menced by alluding to the scene of excitement
through which he had that day passed during the
chairing. He had now the honour to be elected
their Representative for the fourth time, and he
trusted that he had discharged his duty without re-
proach—without causing them to regret their choice.
(The lion. and Gallant Member paused, apparently
overpowered by his feelings; and, after one or two
ineffectual attempts to proceed, retired from the
room for a short time. During his absence the elec-
tors were amused by a song. On his return, Sir Ro-
bert proceeded, amid loud cheering, to say)—Dur-
ing the last fortnight his mind had been kept in such
a state of excitement, arising from various causes,
that he was not at all times master of his feelings.
lie seemed to he in a dream of happiness, and al-
most feared to wake and lose that of which he felt
the enjoyment so vividly. He spoke not now of
his late restoration to the rank and emoluments of
his profession—he passed by the mighty events that
had just occurred in France, and which were of such
vital importance to the whole of the civilized world.
lie came at once to his re-election for the Borough
of Southwark ; and, after thanking them for the
manner in which they had received his health, the
Honourable and Gallant Member gave—
.. -. .

" Mr. Harris, his Hon. ColleagUe, and might he
coalesce with hint (Sir R. 'Wilson) and realise in the
House of Commons the pledges which he made upon the
hustings." . _

Mr: MAtioN returned thanks on the part of Mr.
Harris.
The next toast was—

" The Constitutional King of France (of the French),
and the principles which had placed him on the Throne of
a brave and free people."
" The Cause of Civil and Religious Liberty all over
the world.
