JOHN NUNN, in returning thanks to the No-
bility and Gentry who have hitherto honoured him with
their support, begs to announce that to meet the rapidly in-
creasing patronage with which his house is favoured, he has
this year greatly enlarged it by the erection of an extensive addi-
tional wing on the sea front, many other buildings and offices,
and various improvements in the interior. The apartments
are spacious and airy, overlooking the German Ocean, which in
this neighbourhood is constantly studded with.innumerable
shipping. The cellars are stocked with the choicest wines;
baths of every description, and billiard table in the house.
Lock-up coach-houses and stabling, with good horses and
steady drivers.
John Nunn begs to assure his visitors that it will be his con-
stant and earnest endeavour to merit the patronage they confer,
and that they may rely on finding at the Lion the quiet of a do-
mestic establishmer.t, with the comforts of an Hotel.

HOP INTELLIGENCE.

KENTISH Hors._Honey•dew is now to be seen in some
of the very best Maidstone grounds, and in the weaker
grounds the bine is not nearly in so favourable a state as at
our last report. Many of the bines are getting black and
fire blasted, and the leaves are curling and turning yellow,
The storm scarcely appears to have diminished the number
of insects, as might have been expected. For miles round
Maidstone, and particularly on the hills, there are a great
quantity of lice, but very few fly, and there appears a great
portion of weak bine which cannot recover for a crop. At
Headcorn, Staplehurst, Goudhurst, and Lamberhurst, the
hops are in a growing state, but followed by fly and lice,
and honey-dew, which causes the grounds to have a sickly
appearance. At Ticehurst, Burwash, and Etchingham,
the hop plantations are in a thriving state, with a decrease
of fly, but in some grounds there is an increase of lice and
a little honey-dew.

CAN TERBURY Hops._ In many grounds the hops are
looking decidedly bad, the wind and cold having greatly
affected them. The bine is strong, but the leaves and
later shoots are of an unkindly hue.

THE IRISH COMMITTEE.

[We publish the following as affording another and
an unexceptionable testimony to the growing tranquil-
lity of Ireland, and the wisdom of Lord Fortescue's
Government.]

" London, July 1, 1839.
" Dear Captain Hill—l am particularly anxious to
communicate through you with my Protestant tenants
and neighbours at this important period of the year ;
and as the Committeee on Crime in Ireland has for
the present concluded the examination of witnesses, and
is preparing to make a Report on the evidence received,
I avail myself of the breathing time allowed me
by this cessation of labour to acquaint our friends that
information of the utmost value has been received, that
the conspiracy which has been working ruin in Ireland has
had a light thrown upon it which I trust will be found
eminently beneficial. The important evidence which
sets forth the fearful objects of the Ribbon conspiracy,
together with other matter of no less interest, which
have been examined into, will soon be known to the
public—and this is a cause for much thankfulness.
" We have reason also to rejoice that the loyalty and
good feeling of the Irish Protestants are now beginning
to be understood, and that the present Lord Lieutenant
is, as I believe, anxious to administer the law with jus-
tice, and in a spirit of kindness. I allude particularly
to the proclamation which he has lately issued referring
to the 12th of July. Its temper and design will, I have
no doubt, ensure to it from the loyal inhabitants of
Ulster, not only that cheerful obedience to which it is
entitled, but thankfulness
.to his Excellency for the
spirit by which it is dictated.
" I trust better days are at hand. Let the patience
which has hitherto characterised the loyal inhabitants
of Ireland remain unbroken—let them continue to
show that their respect for the law is of that pure kind
which ensures obedience to it even when it demands
much self-denial. Above all, let us remember that in
whatever condition we may be placed, we have the pro-
tecting hand of that Almighty Deliverer whose cause, I
trust, is ours, and for every renewed blessing let Him
have the praise.
f. I wish you would communicate my sentiments on
these points to all classes in our neighbourhood who
value my opinions.
" Believe me, very faithfully yours,

" RODEN.
"To Cap t. Hill, Tollymore Park, co. Down."

CARL-OW ELECTION COMMITTEE
(YESTERDAY.)

The Committee decided that the vote of Patrick Barry
should be placed on the poll of Mr. Gisborne, giving per-
mission, at the same time, to the agents of Bruen to
object to it.

Mr. THESIGER then objected to the vote on the ground
that Barry had parted with his qualification.
The examination of the first witness had not been con-
cluded at Four o'clock, the usual hour of adjournment.

CHURCH-RATES

A meeting of the inhabitants of Christ Church,
Surrey, was held on Thursday, for the purpose of mak-
ing a Church-rate. There was strong opposition to the
passing of the rate, and a long discussion concluded as
follows :

Mr. PELLATT contended that the judgment which
had been given by Sir Herbert Jenner, in the Arches
Court, had the effect of rendering their Local Act in-
effective with respect to the question of voting a Church-
rate. It had taken away the right of voting under
Sturgesßourne's Act, exeept in the case of a poor's-rate,
for not one word about Church-rates was to be found in
that Statute.

Mr. DEACON said that the judgment had not such an
effect—it was.highly indecorous to make such a statement.
Mr. PELLATT said, in his opinion, the judgment
had that effect, and proceeded to enter very fully into
the arguments usually advanced against Church-rates.
With respect to the proceedings taken against him, he
gloried in the circumstance, inasmuch as in his person
the issue of a great principle was being tried.—( Hear,
hear.) He then moved, as an amendment, " That
the Vestry be adjourned until the suit in the Arches
Court, ' Hawes and Vicat v. Pellatt,' be determined."
—(Hear, hear.)
Mr. PERRING seconded the amendment, and accused
,the,Rector, in the strongest terms, of gross partiality.
. -The RECTOR applied to the Vestry Clerk as to
` w,h, Cher he was bound to submit such an amendment
:to f Vestry.
r. MEYmorr was of opinion that the Reverend
Ch 'rman was not bound to submit such an amend-
m4. The Vestry had been called for a specific pur-
poso„, . and the amendment would have the effect of
catising an adjournment sine die.—(Great confusion.)
The RECTOR, amidst the greatest uproar, proceeded
to pttt the original motion for the rate ; and after much
interruption declared the motion to have been lost.
A: poll was thereupon demanded, which commenced
imm,ediately, and continued until four o'clock, com-
mepeing again this morning at nine o'clock, and
finally closing at four o'clock in the afternoon. At the
close of the poll yesterday at four o'clock the numbers
were—
' For the rate

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

(From the Brighton Gazelle.)
PORTSMOUTH, WEDNESDAT.—SaiIed on Sunday,
her Majesty's ship Revenge, 78, Captain Waldegrave,
for Lisbon and the Mediterranean. She took dispatches
for Rear-Admiral Sir John Ommanney, K.C.8., and
supernumeraries for the squadron.
The new steam-ship Prometheus, is commissioned in
the River, by Lieut. Thomas Sparks, 1812., for several
years Superintendent of the oyster fisheries at Jersey.
The Inconstant, 36, Captain Pring, was daily ex-
pected at Vera Cruz on the I.sth of September, to em-
bark specie for England. The only vessels in the vici-
nity were the Rover, 18, which was not at Tampico,
and the packet brig Swift.
The steam transport Columbia, Mr. Alexander
Thompson, fitting out in the River. is to go to the West
India station. _ _ _

Lieutenant William Robson, 1830, has taken the
command of the Flamer steam vessel, just commissioned
at Woolwich. _ _

The tender brig Pantaloon, 10, Lieut. Tryon, has
been dispatched to the north coast of Spain, with in-
structions for Lord John Hay.
The steam-vessel, Monkey, Mr. Roberts, master,
and the flag-ship's tender, Mercury, are employed
running between the different ports with volunteer sea-
men for the ships fitting out.
The steamer, Firefly, Lieut. Winniett, destined to
convey out to the West Indies General Maister, for the
Leeward Islands command ; and the Alecto steamer,
Lieutenant Hoseason, for the Mediterranean, are shortly
expected here from the river.
At Spithead.—No ship of war.

KNIGHT'S PATENT ILLUMINATED MAPS.
PART. VIII.—The publisher has very opportunely
brought out, in this Number, maps of two countries
that have lately made some noise in the political world,
namely, Syria and Persia, with part of Caubul. The
former includes a map of Palestine, where the towns and
rivers (or rather the river, for all but Jordan may be
called rivulets) are laid down with great distinctness.
This is one characteristic of the work—another is
cheapness.
THE ADVANTAGES OF LOOKING SICKLY.—
About the latter end of King William's reign there
was a great debate who should succeed the deceased
physician to the Tower. The contending parties were
so equally matched in their pretensions and interests,
that it was extremely difficult to determine upon whom
to confer the honour. The matter was at length brought
to a compromise ; and Dr. Gideon Harvey was pro-
moted to that office, for the same reason that Sextus V.
was advanced to the Pontificate, viz., because he was in
appearance sickly and infirm, and his death was ex-
pected in a few months. He, however, to the dismay
of those who expected to succeed him, survived not only
his rivals, but his contemporary physicians, and died after
he had enjoyed the sinecure above fifty years!—
Physic and Physicians.
It is a lamentable fact that in various remote
parts of the counties of Durham and Northumberland
whole fields of unripe wheat, oats, and beans, are yet to
be seen.—Cumberland Pacquet.

QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.)

(Sittings at Nisi Prius before Lord DENMAN and a
Common Jury.)
SCOTT V. PARKER.

Sir FREDERICK POLLOCK stated the case, which
was an action to recover a sum of 300/., 1001. being
the amount of a bill of exchange which plaintiff had
given a guarantee to pay in the event of its not being
honoured by a third party, and 2001. money actually
lent upon certain securities. It appeared that a gen-
tleman named Cox, being anxious to obtain a loan of
1001. applied to the plaintiff, Mr. Scott, who expressed
his willingness to advance the money upon a bill, if
the defendant, who was a friend of Mr. Scott, would
guarantee the payment of the bill when it became
due. On that undertaking the money was paid over
and a further sum of 2001. was advanced to the defen-
dant, he having deposited eighty shares of a Joint Stock
Company as a security.
Witnesses having been called to prove the plaintiff's
case,
Mr. ERLE objected to the form of the declaration,
inasmuch as the stipulation to return the shares held as
security was not set forth, The plaintiff, therefore, he
submitted, could not recover on the first plea of non-
assumpsit.

After a good deal of discussion between the Learned
Counsel with respect to the form of the pleadings,
Lord DENMAN said he wished these unnecessary
pleas were omitted, as they occasioned a good deal of
expense and trouble.
It was at length agreed that a verdict should be taken
for the plaintiff for 9.00/., with leave to the defendant
to set aside the verdict, and enter a nonsuit on a point
reserved.

COWES, ISLE OF WIGHT.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
ROYAL YACHT SQUADRON INTELLIGENCE

DEC. 5.

On Tuesday was launched from Mr. Joseph White's
yard, a fine new schooner, for J. Neil, Esq. ; she is said
to be one of the handsomest, and is expected to prove
one of the fastest yachts in the squadron ; she was
named the Louisa, and is 123 tons, old measurement.
On Saturday will be launched from Mr. Hansen's
yard. a splendid yacht of 167 tons, name not yet fixed,
for E. N. Harvey, Esq. She has been very much ad-
mired on the stocks.
Many of the members of the squadron have been
here during the week. J. Leveson Gower, Esq., has
taken Harriett Lodge, till May next.
The Commodore (the Earl of Yarborough), leaves
the squadron-house this day, for Arlington-street.
Our builders were never more fully employed ; indeed
they feel great difficulty in procuring the number of
shipwrights they require, to forward the different vessels
now building.
The parties at Newport applying for an Act of Par-
liament, for deepening the Medina, have given notice
to the proprietors of certain properties here, of their re-
quiring them to carry their plans into effect. Among
others, the following :—Hansen's building-yard ; I'.
White's Patent-slip, ship-yard, houses, stores, dock,
&c. ; C. Day's extensive stores, wharfs, &c. ; the
Fountain Causeway, quay, and coal stores ; the Vine
Causeway ; part of Mr. Ratsey's quay. The project is
opposed by the entire inhabitants of Cowes, not omitting
the Commissioners under the Act for improving the
town. All political differences are sunk ; and even
G. H. Ward joins the inhabitants, and we hope from
evil good may come, and some substantial benefits arise
to the town—the parade be repaired—the High-street be
carried in a straight line from the Union Inn, to it—
the harbour deepened—public quays built—spring
water be conveyed by pipes from the hills, and water-
carts no longer block up our public ways, which we pray
may in future be lighted with gas. This appears a great
deal to expect, but may all be very easily accom-
plished ; nothing is wanted but Union.
Mr. Bell is expected to take up his residence at
Norris Castle, on the 11th instant ; immediately after-
wards the vast improvements proposed will be com-
menced.

POST-OPFICE PACKETS.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SIR—As your columns have ever been open towards effect-
ing a thorough reform in the Post-office, both as regards faci-
litating the public correspondence and improving the packets
employed between this country and England, we cannot per-
' mit the recent circumstance of the manner in which the
Liverpool mail from that town to Dublin was conveyed last
night, to escape exposure.
The extremely severe weather of the past week crippled
three of the Liverpool mail-boats; but instead of applying to
either the City of Dublin, or some other Steam-packet Com-
pany, to charter over more steamers, what think you of the
stratagem resorted to ? The Admiralty agent at Liverpool
availed himself of the circumstance of the Duchess of Kent,
first-class steamer, being advertised to sail for Dublin at five
o'clock, to forward the mail in custody of the Second Master
of the Lucifer (which is laid up), as a passenger smuggling
the bags as his luggage—thereby avoiding the ship-tax of two-
pence per letter. We may verily add—" Tempora Mutantur."
We remain, Sir, your very obedient servants,

AND PAGE.

This is an appeal from the Consi3tory Court of the Bishop
of Peterborougt. in a question as to the right of a sitting in
the Church of MI Saints, in the borough of Northampton,
brought by Mr. Becke, an inhabitant of that parish, against
Messrs. Marshall and Page, who served the office of church-
wardens during the year of 1835. The Learned Judge of the
Court below directed in favour of the churchwardens, express-
ing his opinion that they had fulfilled their duty in refusing the
demand of Mr. Becke, and condemned that gentleman in two-
thirds of the costs of the proceedings. An appeal has been
entered against his decision.

The decision was accordingly postponed.
THE OFFICE OF THE JUDGE PROMOTED BY THE REV. -- BREEKS

V. WOOLF REY.

The Proctor for Mrs. Woolfrey said that the costs of his
party had been taxed, and that they amounted to 131. 9s. 4d.,
of which he acknowledged the receipt.
Dr. A DDAMS would take this opportunity of saying that if
his party had had to pay her own costs, she would not have
been completely ruined. There was a rumour abroad that
these proceedings were very expensive.
The COURT—Yes, such a rumour is prevalent. It is uni-
verally believed that the proceedings in the Ecclesiastical
Courts are attended with the greatest expense.
Dr. ADDAMS—The whole sum, including fees fur Counsel,
and all other expenses, is taxed at the enormous sum of
131. 93. 4d.

The whole amount of the costs of the proceeding to
which Mrs. Woolfrey was liable, was 261. 6s. Bd., out of
which she receives the sum of 131. 9s. 4d., for the payment
of those legal expenses which the rules of the Court sanction
and uphold.

The great success which has attended the establishment of Joint
Stock Banks in London, as well as throughout England generally,
confirming as it does the largo experience of what may now be said
to have become the universal mode of banking in Scotland—the
fast increasing and almost unanimous conviction of the public
mind in favour of that system which, while it. affords the greatest
amount of security to the customer, is found to yield anjnelle-
quate profit to the proprietary—make it unnecessary to offer any
statement explanatory of the grounds upon which the Directors
have been induced to undertake the organization of the Union
Bank of London, as a bank of deposit in the metropolis, and for
the transaction of all business falling strictly within the scope of
banking. They will only observe, that in the monetary capital of
the world there are only three establishments of a similar descrip-
tion, with less than 1,000,0001. of paid up capital, while in Edin-
burgh, a city, compared with London, of very limited commercial
relations, there are no less than five joint-stock banks, having a
paid up capital of 4,600,000/., the stock of every one of which
bears a very considerable premium, most of them having besides
paid large bonuses to the proprietors, and all allowing interest to
customers on their deposits.
