The Trade $n plied.

BETTS'S PATENT BRANDY.
The two great distinguishing features of this Brandy are, its
confirmed wholesome properties (being the only essentially pure
spirit known) ; and the striking similarity in its flavour to that of
the finest French Brandy.
The Patent Brandy is the only Spirit recommended by the Faculty,
and the only one that has stood the test of searching Chemical Ana-
lysis. The Reports made upon those which may have been sub-
mitted to that process by others having been such as they have not
dared to offer to public notice.
The Only Establishment of J. T. Betts and Co., is the Distillery,
No. 7, Smithfield-bars, adjoining the Cattle Market, where the
Patent Brandy may be had either pale or coloured, sent free of ex-
pense to any part of the town, in quantities not less than Two Gal-
lons, at Eighteen Shillings per Imperial Gallon, of the highest
legal strength, for Cash on delivery.

At her Majesty's grand dinner at the new palace,
on Thursday evening to the two Princes Esterhazy, Count and Countess
Creppi, and other distinguished persons, the dessert service of Rocking-
ham porcelain was used, by command of the Queen ; and being tastefully
dressed with the choicest fruits, had an imposing effect.

His Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex, since his
late severe indisposition, invariably wears a small velvet cap, instead
of a hat. His Royal Highness, at her Majesty's levee yesterday, re-
moved his cap on entering the state looms, but again put it on when he
entered his carriage.

Last evening the Duke and Duchess of Somerset
gave a splendid entertainment in Park lane, to their Royal Highnesses
the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Duchess of Gloucester, Prince
Esterhazy, Count Chorinsky, and a distinguished party. The Earl and
Countess de Grey gave a grand dinner party in St. James's.square. The
Earl and Countess of Cadogan entertained a numerous party in Picca-
dilly. Lord and Lady Lyndhurst gave a grand supper, after the con.
cell at the Italian Opera.house, at his Lordship's mansion, George.street,
Hanover.square. Mrs. Marshall gave a grand concert at her mansion,
Upper Grosvenor-street.

The Prince of Oude and his suite take frequent
walks in the interior of the Regent's Park, and on retiring arc gene-

THE SOUTHAMPTON WATERS,

which occasionally lend their refreshing aid at high water to im-
prove the adjacent meadows.
THE PARK GROUNDS, EXTENDING TO NEAR ONE
HUNDRED ACRES OF RICH PASTURE,

are environed by plantations, luxuriant in their growth, with walks
which imperceptibly lead around the domain.
THE PANORAMIC VIEW

is contrasted and relieved by never-ending breaks and peeps through
the woods, catching at every turn a new feature. Throughout the
landscape, harmony pervades everywhere—the ensemble :is per-
fect. The reflecting mind will, while luxuriating here amid this
splendid scene, pause awhile to exclaim, that the consummation of
all earthly wishes may be imagined in this favoured spot.
THE WOODLAND AND WATER SCENERY PRESENTS

A COMBINATION OF SURPASSING BEAUTY.
While the undulation in the grounds, terminated by a Hermitage
in a sequestered spot, and within the groves, with the warbling of
the Nightingale's sweet sounds, cannot fail to bring Elysium into
view.

THE FRENCH GARDEN AND PLEASURE GROUNDS,
although of recent creation, are already quite beautiful, the
Kitchen Gardens of considerable extent, are prolific beyond mea-
sure; the congeniality of the climate lends its helping hand to the
prolongation of life. Longevity is proverbial here, and it has been
uniformly conceded as a point without doubt that the
ELITE OF THE ARISTOCRACY OF ENGLAND

will be found for many a long year to have selected this vicinity
for their summer and autumnal repose ; the Villa under review has
long been denominated '° the pet place" of
" SOUTHAMPTON'S FAVOURED VICINAGE."
Winter and its bleak winds are almost estranged by the screen
which is afforded in the rising ground and thickly wooded planta-

do injury to the shrubs and plants; it has already been truly said,
that the neighbourhood i 3 exceedingly recherche, it needs only to
be added, that as the

PENNY V. SLADE.

This was an action brought against the Mayor of Poole and other
Magistrates to recover damages for an illegal seizure for poor-rates, on
the ground that the appointment of the overseers was fraudulent and
illegal, and consequently the rate was illegal.
The case was tried at Dorchester, before Lord Denman, and a verdict
was found for the defendants. Last term a rule nisi was grant ed for a
new trial, and on Thursday last the Court was a long time occupied in
showing cause against the rule. This day Mr. Crowder replied, and the
argument is likely to occupy the whole day. There are two other ac-
tions arising out of the same matter.

of much enjoyment, and yet it is within a short hour's drive of the
ordinary vocations in Lon,:on.
THE COTTAGE RESIDENCE

does not aspire to anything beyond that which, by the old interpre-
tation of the word it literally implies, IT IS TO ALL INTE TS
AND PURPOSES A COTTAGE, without any pretension save
only, that a little tact, and a small expenditure may incline it to
assume a higher grade, and the accommodation within, (when the
aid of a little ornament has been added), will be found suited to a
gentleman, who would recreate there half the year : or a retiring
trader, who would make it his constant residence. There is a /ay

Newport, Isle of Wight, April 3, 1838.
SIR,—I am under the necessity of again complaining I had
no Paper last Saturday. I should have written to )ou!on
Sunday ; but I wished, if possible, to find out if anything
wrong here had taken place, but could not succeed. I think
it bat right to inform you how the Post-office Department i
conducted here. The postman takes the letters and News-
papers to his private residence; himself and wife assort them ;
during which any person who wants a letter or Newspaper can
take what they please. So that it is possible for any person to
have a Newspaper when they wish, without ever being a sub-
scriber, on taking a letter belonging to another person. I
certainly continued The Sun Paper on that account, thinking
it quite as probable the Papers reached Newport as that they
were not sent from your Office. I think it will be to your ad-
vantage to make some enquiry at the proper quarter.
Your well. wisher, H. 11.
[We are sorry to say that the above complaint is too true
in more places than Newport. Whenever there is anything
important, The Sun is sure to miscarry —not from any fault
on our part, but by those whose hands they pass through.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT•

Edward Goriest, described as " gentleman," who surrendered to tae
his trial on Monday, was charged with having committed perjury.
From the statement of Counsel, and the evidence gone into, it 21'.
reared that the defendant had been plaintiff, and conducted a prosecution
at the Surrey Assizes, held at Croydon, against Joseph Sharp,
Watson, and others, and in the course of the proceedings had stibpc!:
need several witnesses ; one of them, Henry Gollings, a licensed vietutd
ler. The alleged perjury was charged to have been committed by the
defendant in swearing to an affidavit, to procure costs, before one of t"
Masters. In that affidavit he swore that be had paid Gollings
guinea and one shilling upon his subpoena. The Court directed
an a
stnittal.
Thomas Norton, 21, labourer, was indicted for stealing a horse, the
property of Alfred Hill, in Essex, on the 15th of December last. IL'

HOUSE OF COMMONS, APRIL 3.

The Gallery was not opened till Half-past Four o'Clock,
there having been a Ballot.
On the motion of Mr. SANFORD, the Bristol and Exe-
ter Railway Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be
committed.

Mr. DIL LON BROWNE said that he had a petition to
present from Mr. Malty, Solicitor to the Moy Navigation
Company, of which he ( Mr. B.) had given previous notice.
The petitioner stated, that in the early part of this Session he
had presented a petition from the traders arid merchants of the
towns of Ballina and Ardence, in the counties of Mayo and
Sligo, praying that permission might be given to intro-
duce a Bill for improving the navigatim of the river
cloy; that the petitioners had previously communicated
with the Board of WTorks in Ireland, who, on the repre-
sentation of engineers whom they had employed, agreed
to advance the sum of three thousand pounds towards the
completion of the work, on the security of certain tolls and
harbour dues proposed to be levied by the Act of Parliament
in contemplation. The petitioner further states that the
promoters of the Bill, acting under legal advice, had consi-
dered that your Honourable House would 11)1d such engage-
ment of the Commissioners of Public Works in Ireland
equivalent to a subscription contract, and that there-
fore they sought to introduce their Bill without such con-
tract ; but that the Committee on Standing Orders ruled
otherwise, though the work was strongly recommended by a
Select Committee of the House in 1835 ; that in consequence
the promoters of the Bill were unable to proceed with their
undertaking, to the great detriment of the above-mentioned
towns. Your petitioner therefore prays that, as on account of
the limited trade and resources of Ireland, it is difficult to get up
such subscription contracts, that it may be held by the Standing
Orders of this Honourable House, that an undertaking from
the Board of Works in Ireland to advance three-fourths of
the stipulation is equivalent to such contract, particularly as
such undertaking shall not be given without sufficient scrutiny
as to the utility of the work, and security for the re-payment of
the advances.

COLONIAL MARKETS.

A very meagre business done te.day in either East or West India
produce. There are orders in town to a considerable extent, but owing
to the complete obstruc•ion of navigation by the frost, they cannot be
executed. We have beard that such is the state of things,
that casks and boxes of Coffee are sent by coach to the dif..
f rent large towns for the dealers. Under these circumstances, prices
remain generally firm, with a tendency to advance, which they will do
to all appearance until the frost allows of transmission into the inte-
rior. Not much doing to-day in British Plantation Sugar, and prices
as quoted last week. Refined continues nominal. We have no
public sa'es to-day of any Fast India or Foreign Sugar ; and no
public sales of Coffee. There were two public sales of Saltpetre
amounting to 4,600 bags, which was selling with some briskness when
we left, at about previous prices. A public sale of 3;800 bags of Ben-
gal Rice scent with spirit, at prices looking up from the advanced ones
of last sale. There was a trifling sale of Jamaica White Ginger, but it.
furnished no criterion for the market. These were the only public sales
to-day of East or West India produce, except the D.P. Sugar Barbadoes
of 137 hhds., which was selling, when see left, at prices looking up from
last quotations. This appears to be the disposition of the Market, but
the wcathercontracting business into so very small a compass, prevents
any advance of moment. Canadian produce remains stationary. The
Imports are improving a little, but they are still very insignificant.
Even Tea now has become very quiet.

COMMITTEE ON BILLS.
OGLRY HAY (STAFFORD) INCLOSURB BILL.
Mr. Firscn, M. P., in the Chair.
Colonel Anson Mr. Thorneley
Mr. Buller ( Stafford) Mr. Villiers
Mr. Grimsditch Mr. Williams.
A very important point was mooted by this Committee.
The new Special Standing Orders require " That in all Bills
for inclosing Common or Waste Lands provision be made for
leaving an open space, suffic'ent for purposes of exercise
and recreation of the neighbouring population, and that in any
case when provision is not made in the Bill, the Committee on
the same be required specially to report to the House the rea-
sons for not complying with such Order."
In this case it appeared that no such vacant space had b'een
reserved, and the Committee evinced a praisevvo;t‘r:y anxiety
not only to learn the reason why, but also to protect the in-
terests of the poor generally.
Evidence was adduced to show that this intended inclosurc
was surrounded by trs':;t3 of waste and forest land, and that
the population was very small—the witness declaring- that not
more than 50 -,.;ersons dwelt within two miles all round it.
On this the Committee came to the following resolution,
" That it hppeared to the Committee that the lands proposed
to be enclosed were not contiguous to any town or village, and
that they were in the immediate vicinity of other large tracts
of write land, and therefore, that there existed no necessity
for Alloting any space for the recreation of the poor."
Mr. Williams, M. P., for Coventry, strictly cross-examined
the witnesses whether there were not poor people who had
bui!t upon the waste, and would be turned out by this Act.
The witness declared there were none, the Lord of the Maxim'
having been very strict in its preservation.
The Committee, after the usual evidence, then declared the
preamble proved, and proceeded to consider the proposed 9.',•
terations in the clauses of the Bill—one r which was that
persons whose interests would be affected,'„,y should be com-
pelled to declare within 21 days, w/-...etbet. they would take the
price awarded or not. This Committee altered to one
month, and then proceeded 03 pros the Bill, which will be re-
ported to the House.

WORSHIP' STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

A VENTRILOQUIST IN TROUBLE.—John Wolff; Ann, his wife, and
Mars Brown, his sister, were charged before Mr. Coon, under the fol-
lowing circumstances :
It appeared from the evidence of two policemen, that they were on
duty in Hoxton, at 2 o'clock this morning, when they heard the cry
of Police!" apparently proceeding from a Lane near where they were,
but there no one whatever was to be seen. They were about
to return,
received a similar summons from a diametrically
opposite direction, and on running thither they met with the same
oi'
goii:vgh when they
success as before. The deceptive sounds led them on the same
Will-o'-the-Wisp chase in various other directions, and they
tad returned to the road breathless and bewildered,
when they per.
ceived the prisoners, who had all the time been standing,rnjoying with
obstreporous merriment their fruitless excursions. On desiring them
to move on, the prisontr Brown refused to do so, and attempted to
clapperclaw them, and on taking her into custody, the other two pri-
soners interfered, and tried to rescue her. They were accordingly
obliged to march the three off to the station-house.
Mr. Conn (to the male prisoner)—What are you ?—Prisoner : A pro-
fessional man, Sir.
Mr. Conn—iNhat profession?'—prisoner : A ventriloquist.
The " professional man " and his sister were ordered to find bail, and
his wife was discharged on payment of a shilling.

JOINT STOCK BANKS.—A very great excitement
prevails among the Joint Stock Bankers regarding the recent
decision, that clerical holders of shares incapacitate them for
suing ; and with regard to the nature of the Chancellor of the
Exchequer's measure for remedying the evil, which the Right
Hon. Gentleman will bring forward this night. Many Direc-
tors of Country Companies are now in town, and an expecta-
tion prevails among them that Government will not confine its
remedial measures to this single though formidable evil.

ripH E YOUNG WIDOW.
WEEKLY NEWSPAPER, Price 6il

" Entirely unconnected with the political trinity of the day, she
is pledged to neither Tories, Whigs, nor Radicals. She spiritedly
throws down the gauntlet, careless as to the champion who may
have temerity enough to raise it. Few can expect to participate in
the refined sociality of these recherché meetings. THE YOUNG
WIDOW, however, is considerate—the many must not despair.
In the plenitude of her generosity, she has determined to giro the
benefit of them to the public ; and trusts that the short-hand
writer, whom she has engaged, will give their essence, divested of
none of their raciness, every SUNDAY Morning regularly. A
WIDOW, such as ours, is well worthy of being known, even by
Report."—Vide Prospectus.

A,,otha of these concerts took place last night at the
roi~J cum. The elcs;tion ;vas nearly identical .with that on
which wort:market-1:0m days tin'4. The quadrilles were
beautifully played, as tkov always have bsen under Mr. Pilati
conducting, but the overt; " Semiramide," " Freisehutz,"
" Fra Diavolo," &c., were by no means correctly played. The
room was not so well attended as at the last conCeTt. It .
evidently not the season of the year for a speculation of this
sort. Mr. Pilati must try again when the weather becomes
ternuerate.

BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

CAUTION TO LICENSED VICTUALLERS.—John Barber, a shabby-look-
ing fellow, went into the Wheat Sheaf public.house, Clare.market, last
night, and requested to
.be accommodated with a bed, which was in-
stantly got ready for him. In the morning when he came duwn stairs
the servant.maid requested he would wait until she went to the bed-
chamber to see that all was right, to which he agreed, and on turning
down the bed-clothes she discovered that both the sheets had been taken
away. She directly came down again for the purpose of charging the
prisoner, but he was off, and on her going in pursuit of him, she saw
him running through Lincoln's Inn-fields, and he was given in custody.
The prisoner declined saying anything, and was fully committed for
trial.

Francis James Bethel was charged by John Bolton, who stated that
he had yesterday hired the prisoner to remove his goods from Drury_
lane, and after his work was completed, they had some drink together.
On his return home he was told by his wifet that the prisoner had
stolen his watch. He then went, accompanied by his wife, to the
prisoner's lodging, and after telling him his suspicions he took him
into custody, when he made a full acknowledgment of his guilt, and
gave up the watch.
The prisoner was fury committed for trial.

MARYLEBONE OFFICE-THIS DAY.

A WATERFORD SPREF..—Three stylishly dressed young men, who
gave their names John Alfreds, Standage Athelstone, and George Frank-
lin, the first of whom stated that he was staying at the Tavistock Hotel,
and the others that they had no regular place of residence, were brought
before Mr. RAwLINsoN, charged with knocking loudly at the cellar door

IMPORTATION OF COCHINEAL.

Mr. 0. GORE wished to ask the Right Hon. the
Chanceller of the Exchequer whether it was the intention
of the Government to adopt any measures in consequence
of the decision of the Court of Exchequer last week on the

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER replied
that it was his intention to move for leave to bring in a
