RESPECT TO HER MAJESTY.

Mr. FLETCHER brought up the Report of the Committee
appointed to take. into consideration the most advisable
means of showing the respect of the Corporation to her
Most Gracious Majesty Queen Victoria. It was as follows :
" That this Committee have duly.taken the same into their
consideration, and having referred to the precedents on former
accessions to the throne, and the several entertainments which
have been given to the Sovereign by the Corporation in the
Guildhall of the City, are of opinion, upon the present occa-
sion, that the Court cannot adopt any better mode to show
their respect to her Majesty upon her accession, than by taking
the earliest opportunity of humbly re'questing that her Majesty
will vouchsafe to honour them with her Royal presence at
dinner, at the Guildhall of this City, and that her Majesty will
be graciously pleased to appoint such day and hour as may be
most convenient and suitable to her MajeSty."—(Cheers.)

The Report, seconded by Mr. ODBAR- D, was agreed to
unanimously, and in the most hospitable spirit.
Mr. FLETCHER then moved the following resolution :

" That the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor, the Recorder, and
he Sheriffs, attended by the Remembrancer, do forthwith wait
upon her Majesty, and, in the name of the Court, humbly re.
quest her Majesty that she will vouchsafe to honour them with
her Royal presence at dinner, in the Guildhall of this cq, on
day and at .uch time as ker,

pleased to appoint ; and tnat it ner majesty be pleased
to to accept the said invitation, then they do humbly beg leave
of her Majesty to communicate with the Queen Dowager and
the rest of the Royal Family, and request them to accompany
her 'Majesty on that occasion.

" Th.at, in the event of her Majesty being graciously pleased
to accept the said invitation, the Committee appointed on the
21st inst., to consider the best mode the Court may adopt to
show their respect to her Majesty upon her accession,' be em-
powered forthwith to proceed is the preparing of the Guild..
hall, and the providing of a suitable entertainment to her Ma-
jesty, in such manner as they shall see fit, and to give every
necessary direction in respect thereof."
These Rosolutions were seconded by Mr. Obbard.

• Mr. STEVENS—The entertainment must be at the ex-
pense of the city, and the Lord Mayor and Sheriffs will
bear no part of it. That is distinctly understood.
The Report was then agreed to unanimously, and amidst
loud acclamations. The preparations are to be upon the
most superb plan.

The defendant was indicted for perjury. On the 17th
of last August the defendant was in a boat off Kingsgate,
with a man of the name of. Turner. The boat was seized,
it being alleged that it contained smuggled brandy. Some
tubs containing less than twenty gallons of brandy each
were picked up by where the boat was. An information
was afterwards exhibited against Turner, and he called the
defendant as a witness to prove that the boat carried no
tubs, and he so swore when before the Magistrates. Seve-
ral men in the revenue service stated that the boat did con-
tain tubs, and hence the present indictment arose.
When the ease for the prosecution had closed,
The Learned JUDGE directed the Jury to find the de-
fendant Not Guilty.
CROWN SIDE.—John Reader Plumber was placed at the
bar, charged with forging and uttering a bill of exchange
for 44/., with intend to defraud Edward Ashenden.
The prisoner gave the bill in question to a bricktnaker,
of whom he purchased some bricks. The acceptance was
in the name of Green, and it was drawn by the priSoner.
Mr. Green denied himself to be the acceptor, and the pri-
soner was consequently apprehended for the forgery. He
was found Guilty of uttering the bill, but acquitted of
forging it.
The prisoner was again indicted for forging other bills of
exchange, and was sentenced to transportation for life.

MIDLAND CIRCUIT.—Dznnr, JULY 2.0.
Commission for this county was opened yesterday,
and business comenced in both courts this morning. The
cause paper is unusually light, there being only six cases
entered. The criminal business is also of a light nature,
with one or two exceptions.
NODDRR (CLERK) U. WOODIIEAD AND OTHERS.
This was an action for libel. Mr. BALGUY appeared
for the Rev. Mr. Nodder, who now complained of a most
scandalous libel, which was published by the two defend-
ants, the editors of the North Derhyslitre Chronicle, in
their paper of the 14th of January of the present year. It
was a paragraph headed " A Humane Divine." No satis-.
factory apology having been made, the present action was
brought .merely to relieve the plaintiff's character from any
imputations the statement might have occasioned.
Mr. HILL, for the defendants, now gave the. fullest apo-
logy. They had made inquiry, and found there was no
foundation for the paragraph their correspondent had sent ;
they were sensible of the handsome conduct of the plain-
tiff in not asking for damages, and they hoped the present
explanation would act as a balm to any laceration of feel-
ing he might have experienced.
A verdict was then taken by consent for the plaintiff—
Damages 405., costs 40s.

The Queen exercised all the :nfltunce s'ae posses to
induce the King to dismiss Rudhart, but tae.glor;ous op-
portunity of putting himself right with his subji tts aid
with all Europe has been thrown away. Frey goes, ac d
Rudhart remains.
It is high time for the Greeks to have a voice in their
affairs, which are now mismanaged exclusively by foreigners.
Hitherto the Bavarians have always said their d:fEculties
arose from Greek or foreign intrigue but in the case of
Frey the whole affair is Bavarian, no foreigner had anything
whatever to do in it ; it is exclusively theirs, and much job►
may they derive from it.
Nearly all the proposals of Rudhart to the Cowell of
State have been rejected. The question of the sett!, mmt
of the old debts was declared to be only within the compe-
tency of a national congress ! A. proposal t' create special
tribunals in Maine was rejected unanimously, Rudhart is
the protege of the Austrian, Russian, and Bavarian Leo-
tions ; he is also supported by the French Mini Mer, and it
is only Sir E. Lyons who stands forward for Grecian rode•
prudence and the honour cf the Throne. The Greeks ara
very indignant at their King being under the dictation of:his
father ; they showed it on his Majesty's birthday, when
their Majesties drove threr.g'n the streets to see th.e illumi-
nations, which in truth hardly made darkness vi-sible. Near
the coffee-house, where was a large assemblage of their sub-
jects, as the royal carriages approached, the loud laugh and
busy hum ceased, and a mournful silence succeeded.

The watch was of gold, engine turned, the value of it
being 40/. or 50/. The makers' names n ere Hatfield and
Hall, Manchester, No. 7,513.
Mr. GROVE asked the prisoner bow he came whe:•e he
was found, and where he bad been drinking ?—The pri-
soner said that he was a stranger in London, and neither
knew where he was when found,nOr did he know where ho
had been drinking to get intoxicated.
Mr. GaovE—Can you state the numbers of the notes
that were in your possession, or is there any one that you
can refer to in London who knows yen ?—The prisoner
stated that the numbers of the notes were down in a book
in his box at the Swan-with-two-Necks, Lad-lane, where he
had been living since he came to town, and where he was
known by the name of Charles King.
Mr. GROVE then directed policeman 240- K to go to the
inn to inquire if such a person was known there, and told
the prisoner to come again next Tuesday, unless he could
bring very satisfactory evidence to show that the notes were
his property.
The prisoner then left the office.
The policeman returned, stating th.lt no such perso ) ;Ars
known at the inn neither by name nor appearance.
The money with the watch is in the care of Mr. HerituLe,
chief clerk of the office.

WOODSTOCK.

-
The Nomination of Candidates to represent This borough
in Parliament, took place on Monday last, 3eefore Williatn
Carter, Esq., the Mayor and Returning eificer. The can-
didates were Lord Charles Spencer Churchill, son of the
Duke of Marlborough, and Henry Peyton, Esq., eldest
son of Sir Henry Peyton, Bart.
Mr. Moms proposed Lord C. Chure',i'l, and Mr.
Cutsnome seconded the motion.
J. Tuottemee, Esq., a gentleman who is possessed of
large propetty in the neighbourhood, proposed Mr. H.
Peyton.
Mr. Benwts, a retired barrister, seconded Mr. Thorn-
hill's motion. _
Lord CHARLES Crwectitee said—Gentlemen, you have
heard, and probably read, much of a correspond'_•nce
between my father and brothers respecting this boroueb, i
declare, on my honour as a gentleman, that I knew nothing
whatever of it until I saw it in the newspapers. Neither
of my brothers condescend to notice me in the bargain at-
tempted to be driven ; in short, I do not oelieve any mem-
ber of my family cares for me ; and I can assure you, gen-
tlemen, I do not care for any one of them.—(Laughter.) I
ant net amtitious of being ;main in the House. I am a
quiet domestic tnan, fond of retirement. Had Lord Bland-
ford expressed a wish to be returned himself, I would hare
.given way in a moment, but not be kicked out by an
intruder.—(Laughter, hisses, and ehezis.)
H. Pml.°N, Esq., then, amidst almost unanimous ch:;:er6,
presented himself to the electors, and sail—With re;avd
to Lord Charles calling me an intruder,. I can only.. ;av,
Gentlemen, I was horn in your immediate neighbetii;eued,
where my father still lives. I have passed most el; ley days
among you—more by many than the Noble lead. I have
spent ten times the money in Woodstock retat he has done.
If you return me to Parliament, I will. continue to reside
near you ; I will never be away from, you, except to watch
over your interests ; and when yolk consider I neglect them,
tell me so, and I will resign the trust you have committed
to me once more into your hands.--(Cheers.)
After the applause which attended the delivery of Mr.
Peytoe's brief but enertTetic and manly speech had subsided,
The MAYOR then took the usual show of hands: which
was ten to one in favour of Mr. Peyton, the people's Con-
servative candidate, upon which Lord C. Churchill ("e-
-mended a poll.
On Tuesday the election took place in the Town Hall,
where the polling was carried on front eight until four, -when
it closed, with a majority of nine in favour of Mr. Peyton,
whom the Mayor declared duly elected.
Mr. Peyton was chaired in the evening, amidst an en-
thuziasm which has not been witnessed in old Woodstock
for many•a day ; but triumphant as the people have been,
they bore their honours well ; no ill temper or ill behaviour
disturbed the public peace, and we did not hear of a single
accident.
