TILE FUNDS.

The north-easterly wind; have again prevented us from re-
ceiving any arrivals from the United States. The report
which prevailed, late yesterday afternoon, of the arrival of
the Earl of Durham appears to be incorrect. The two
packets, of the Bth from New York, are not now ex-
pected until Monday ; even the letters by the Garrick have
not as )et been received

The merchants ccrap'ain greatly of the captain not having
la,,ded the lag of letters with the pas,engers in Ireland ;
much inconvenience is experienced by this neglect. Consuls,
which closed yesterday at 94, both for Money and the Ac-
count, opened at the same price this morning ; and for January
Account, 94i ; scarce a bargain doing as yet. The Foreign
Exchanges were steady yesterday, but had a downward ap-
pe4rthee.

MONTHLY CHRONICLE.

This is the best Number that has vet appeared.
The remarks on Lord Brougham are just in the main,
but, in paces, an unfriendly spirit is pretty unequivo-
cally manifested. The writer, however, does ample
justice to his Lordship as an orator, observing that
" his speeches sustain and will preserve his fame, as
one of the greatest speakers of a land that has had no
eluAls in watory (iVlirabeau alone excepted) since the

ancients." The only objection we have to this re-
mark is, that Mirabeau is praised immeasurably above
his deserts. Compare such a man with Chatham,
Burke, Canning, Brougham, or even Grey ! hy, he
was not fit to hold a rushlight to them Look at the
fragments of his speeches preserved in the pages of
the revolutionary historians—especially in those of
fliers, who, admiring the man, took care to select
none but his most successful flights ! What do you
find there ? Mere flashy, clap-trap appeals to the
passions of an audience, at a time when their judg-
ment was laid asleep. There are no enlarged views
of statesmanship—no philosophic principles of thought
and action suggested. INCrabeau was the mere adroit
panderer to the passions of time mob ; the director of the
phrenzy of the moment; and even in this capacity was
far surpassed by Danton. To say the best of him,
he was a flashy, superficial rogue and renegade, who
had the good luck just to die in time for his reputation.
Had he lived one year longer, he would have been ex-
posed in all his hollowness. " Zicci," by Bulwer
-deepens in interest as it proceeds. The present chap-
ters contain much picturesque painting. The " Life
of the Duke of Wellington" is worth reading, not so
much as a repertory of facts, as from the inferences
the writer draws from them. His Grace is eulogised
of course, but not beyond his deserts ; and the most
fitting construction is put upon the " untoward" affair
of Marshal Ney. "Announcement of a new grand Ac-
celeration Company for the Promotion of the Speed of
Literature" is a lively squib, and the " Monthly Re-
view of Literature" marked by judgment and temper.

110 USE OF LORDS, JULY 31.
APPEALS.-HAMILTON AND ARTHUR V. DUNN.
This was an appeal against an order of the Court of Ses-
sion. The respondent was the owner or an estate called
Duntecher, and a stream of water passed through it, coming
from a lake on the Kirkpatrick hills. The water, in the pas-
sage down, flowed through lands belonging to the appellant
Hamilton, and used by Arthur, who was a bleacher. In 1822
the late James Hamilton, the appellant's father, let to Arthur
some land formerly used as a bleachfield. The lease was
dated in 1822, and was to continue for nineteen years at a
rental of 601. a year. The lease contained a license to use
the premises "for the purpose of bleaching, dyeing, or printing,
and any operations connected with bleaching, dyeing, pi inting,,
or for agriculture." On the 2d of August, 1826, Arthur,
with the consent of the trusteeFfor his creditors, granted
a sublease for the unexpired term, to persons trading under
the firm of Macdonald, Young, and Co. This under-leave
was afterwards assigned to Macdonald. The respondent
claime& that, after the under lease was granted, a new manu-
facture of Turkey red dyeing was carried on upon the pre-
mises, and that the water, instead of being, as before, per-
fectly pure and limpid, when it reached his grounds, was tur-
bid, and partly unfit for use ; and that madder-roots and
other things were thrown into the stream. He accordingly
brought his acticn against Mr. Hamilton and Mr. Arthur.
The cause came on for trial before Lord Jeffery, when a ver-
dict was given for the defendants. A rule was obtained to set
aside this verdict on account of indiscretion ; and the Court
of Session did ultimately set it aside, and ordered a new trial.
This was the order appealed from. The Lord Chancellor now
affirmed the order of the Court below.
INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, ./eLr 31.
SIR ANDREW LEITH DAY'S SERVANTS. -,
John Milne, late butler, &c., to Sir Andrew Leith Hay,
applied to be discharged. He was unopposed by his creditors.
The insolvent had lived some years in the service of Sir An-
drew Leith Hay, and to the non-payment of his wages he
ascribed his insolvency. It appeared from the questions put
to him by. the Learned Chief Commissioner, that his late
master owed him 100/. for wages and money paid on his ac-
count. There e.a,, he said, a reduction in the establishment,
and he left in September last. Sir Andrew went abroad, and
lie had not seen or heard of him since.
The insolvent was discharged.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

110 ME CIRCUI7LEWES, JULY 30.
Catharine Abrahams (the wife of an itinerant optician),
Ralph Simmonds, and others, who were out upon bail for a
conspiracy to dispossess Mr. William Prosser, a respectable
lodging-housekeeper at Brighton, of his house, by turning
him and his wife into the street, appeared to-day to take their
trial. Mr. CLARKSON conducted Mr. Prosser's case, and Mr.
ADOLPHUS the defence. 'I he wife of the prosecutor proved
the facts, and spoke of the violent conduct of Mrs. Abrahams,
who threatened to run witness through with a spit.
After hearing the ease at some length, the Jury found Mrs.
Abrahams Guilty of obtaining false possession of the house,
and -Simmonds Guilty for the riot and assault; but recom-
mended him to mercy. --
His.LORDSHIr should' not now pass sentence upon Simmonds
this Assize; but call upon him to enter into his own recogni-
zance to appear for judgment when called upon. If he be-
haved well, no further notice would be taken of the matter.
With respect to the lady, he should hold her on her own re-
cognizances till the finish of the Assizes, when, if some proper
arrangement were made respecting the expenses, she might
be discharged, as she had suffered something on finding bail.

OXFORD-CIRCUIT, JuLr 30.
The Commission was opened in this city on Saturday af-
ternoon, and the business commenced this morning. There
are thirty causes entered, seven of which are Special Juries.
In five of these the same party, an attorney of the name of
Hughes, is the plaintiff, and the defendants are proprietors
of papers, the cause of action being libel. It is stated that
Sir F. Pollock is retained on the part of the plaintiff.
There are about thirty-nine prisoners in the calendar. One
is charged with rape, but the majority of crimes are of an
unusually light nature.

Joseph Dye, a master tailor, No. 1, Marshall-stre< t,

Mr. CONANT said the defendant had acted with the most
unjustifiable violence, and he should therefore inflict the full
penalty of 51.
The defendant immediately paid the money, and on applica-
tion from the Bench agreed to give up the indentures.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.

Nothing of importance took place in the House up to the
,inte of our going to pre Es th's evening.

On Monday a shocking accident occurred to a
young female named Catherine Jacobs, aged nineteen, residing with her
parents, in Bailey's-court, Smart's.buildings, Drury-lane. It appears
the unfortunate girl was leaning out of the first floor window, fin the
purpose of hanging some clothes on a line attached to a pole in front of
the window. A neighbour, obs:Tving her reaching out a considerable
way, and only depending on the po:e, remarked that if she did not mind
she would fall. The girl replied, " What a bit of fun, it' I did." The
words were scarcely ut,cred when the pole gave way, :did she was preci-
pitated with tremendous violencQ on her forehead on the stones blow.
Sie was picked up insensilde, arid conveyed to Charing_cross 116s:situ),
wh re it was found she had received a violent cor.cussion of the brain
and is not eitreeted to survive.

LONDON :
WEDNESDAY EVENING. AUGUST 1, 1838

It was observed by Sir ROBERT PEEL on Monday night
that he saw no principle which had guided the Pension Com-
mittee in coming to their decision. Neither do we, when
they could leave Mr. HOLMES' son on the List, permit
Mrs.RosAmoND CROKER to hope for a reversion, and strike
off Sir DAVID SCOTT. What has poor Sir DAVID done
which makes his pension more disreputable than that
which Messrs. CROKER and HoLxes took advantage of
their political influence to procure for their wife and
son ? Surely Lord 'WALSINGHAM'S pension of 9361.
which was granted to his father in consideration of his ser-
vices as Postmaster-General was quite as well deserved as
the pension granted to the wife of a Secretary of the
Admiralty or the son of a Treasurer of the Ordnance ?
Lord WAestivoxAm held a public office of some labour for
twenty years, at a salary of 2,5001., Mr. CROKER, the
lriefless barrister, also held a public situation of equal or
--•ereater emolument, for about as many years ; he
ass his retiring pension, or superannuation, and
why should his wife he treated with greater
favour than Lord WALSINGHAM'S son ? Neither do
we understand why Lord BLOIIFIELD, who is Colonel
of the Ist Battalion of the Royal Artiller • and
Commandant of Woolwich, and is therefore now in'active
service, should still retain a pension of 936/. The Noble
Lord was favourite equerry to GEORGE IV., till some other
favourite made his services abroad more desirable, and he
earned a diplomatic pension of 1,5001. by feasting for a
few years at Stockholm, having nothing earthly to do but
enjoy himself and amuse his friends. He gives that up, and
why should lie not give up the the 936/. granted fur no ser-
vice? This case exposes thy principle on which the public
are continually plundered by those who are called
public men. They ordain large salaries and large pensions
for such perfectly useless, and to the public valueless, oc-
cupations as that of now and then bowing at the levee of
the Kkg of SWEDES. That is tile example ; hut there
are some score of her MAJESTY'S representar:v,:s at foreign
Courts whose duties are equally onermv, and equally well
pail. After going through the pleas Int process of
earning a pension, they get praised as patriots, as
having a regard to honesty and honour, and sp,:ring the
public purse if they accept only 900/. a-year in addition to
the emoluments of active service instead of the 1,500/.
they might by possibility receive. To us the principle of
giving a man a pension for living, w
, at Stockholm for a fern
years in great aflluenca at the pubic expense, while I
he is still able to do public duty, and is actually
engaged in the public service, receiving a large an-
nual salary, seems as gross and wanton a uaste of
the public resources as can be conceived. Seeing that
Mr. CROKER'S wife leis for the present been deprived of
her pension, and Lord WALSINGIIA/1 alteget• er of his,

FASHIONS FOR AUGUST.

(From the London and Paris Magazine of Fashion.)
White is decidedly in favour this season, and even when broche, the
patterns are so light and separate that the white predominates. The
application of velvet flowers is the newest style, and bouquets of gera-
nium all over, or the coral pattern on flounces are very elegant, Mous-
selines de laine embroidered in tambour are also pretty for the prome-
nade or morning visit. Embroidery is introduced on every thing, and
different kinds of lace are imitated in work. Dres.,es which are very
full trimmed, such as have five and six rows of bouillons, are not
made so wide in the skirt. The fashionable sleeve is mode.
rately wide, with trimming to match those on the skirt
Corsages continue to be made en error; many are finished
with a fichu paysanne with ruche, two rows of ruches ornament the
tops of the sleeves, and a similar trimming on a larger scale forms a
double fes.toon at the bottom of the skirt. Some redingotes are made en-
tirely without ceinture, which gives length to the waist; they are
finished with two very small rouleaux, the b.acks full, having the ga.
thers confined about two fingers above the waist. Flounces are becoming
more general, and vary according to the taste, fancy, or style, of each
lady. Vandykes and ruches chicorees are a!so in favour. Very large
mantelets and shawls of white organdy, either plain or embroidered,
are worn. Shawls are so large as almost to reach the ground ; they are
made of shot silks. Mantelets are also made of the same material, and
are trimmed with lace or bands of the same pinked. Muslin and net
&Thus preserve the same form ; some are sounded behind. Fichus ala
Corday are worn in Paris of black tulle, edged wills blond crossing in
front, the ends falling behind the whole length of the skirt.
Very little ribbon is used on Leghorn or dress bonnets, but on straw
and neglige it is frequently mixed With white or black lace; plaids or
liVely colour, are selected for this purpose; the long ends droop ng on
the shoulders are abandoned. The flowers worn ate all in branches,
and placed very low at the side of the bonnets, which are worn very
backward on the head Caputes of paille de riz a ith silk crowns are
very pretty. Bavolcts are less used. Marabouts are always much
ized, and are placed on bonnets which are tul!tm in front and deep
at the ears. Caps ornamented with flu:vets cmt:nt.e fashionable, but
are not placed quite so backward, nor is the trimming so flet Ott the
forehead.

NEW COURT.

Thomas Harding, aged 16, and Charles Gells, aged 14,
were indicted for stealing a handkerchief from the person of
D. B. Hovel, Esq.
The prosecutor is a gentleman living at Lower Clapton, and
was passing along Hackney-road on the 26th of July, when
he felt a tug at his pocket, and on turning round he.saw them
runningaway with his handkerchief.
Mr. CHAMBERS addressed the Jury for Charles Gells, and
called witnesses, who gave the prisoner an excellent character.
The Jury thereupon acquitted him and found Harding
Guilty.
The convict was informed that ho would be transported for
ten years to the Isle of Wight.
It appears Government are about to convert some bar-
racks in tne Isle of Wight into a Penitentiary, or School of
Industry, for the reception of convicts under the age of six.
teen years, and which we understand will be ready for their
reception in the course of a few weeks.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, AUG. 22.

John Jones was indicted for assaulting his wife Harriet.
The complainant stated that she. was compelled to leave the
prisoner some time back from ill-treatment, and obtained a si-
tuation in the family of a gentleman named Burgess, who re-
sided at Paddington. On the 10th of last month the defen-
dant came there to her, and after knocking her down, pulled
out a knife, and threatened to cut her throat with it if she did
not leave her place and come to live with him again.
The defendant, in answer to the charge, said the com-
plainant had destroyed his peace of mind for ever by leaving
her home without any provocation and living with other men.
Complainant confessed she had lived with another man, but
said that was a long thins ago.
The Jury found the defendant Guilty, and the Court sen-
tenced him to be imprisoned twenty-one days, and to enter
into his own recognizance in 401. to keep the peace towards
his wife for twelve months.
Elizabeth Golding, Lucy Brown, Sarah Cox, and Mary
11"tion, were severally convicted of 'Keeping disorderly houses
in the neighbourhood of Sadier's Wells Theatre, and sen-
tenced to six months' imprisonment and hard labour in the
House of Correction.
William Stanley was indicted for stealing a biok, of the
value of 2s. 6d.
The charge was clearl established against him.
The prisoner in defeneye said that he was one of the unfor-
tunate persons who bad been induced to enter into the service
cf the Queen of Spain: that he had received no less than six
wounds, which rendered him altogether incapable of working
for his living ; that he had not got any pension, or even the
arrears of pay that were due to him, and that at the time he
committed the offence with which he stood charged, he had
not tasted food for eight-and-forty hours. The poor fellow's
appearance was wretched in the extreme.
The CHAIRMAN said, that believing his story to be true, he
would only pass a light sentence upon him, which was, that
ba imprisoned seven days.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

A yOUng man MANSION-HOUSE.
named John Parr was brought before the
Loan MAYOR, charged under the following circumstances :
A cab-driver named Thomas Cox was engaged by one John
Smith on Friday last to drive him from Oxford-street to
various
„pi aces. The nelnekv driver, after having driven Mr.
Ilt;urs, at last set h 13
iinaown at .;I;.er's-b 2-, uin,.,
Live.puol-sireet, but received nothing for his trouble except
violent abuse and a chamber-window salute, which placed him
in such a condition as he never was in before. To add to his

comfort, upon returning to his cab, which he had left in the
neighbourhood of Bishopsgate station-house, he discovered
that his great-coat, with white buttons, had been stolen
while he was endeavouring to get his fare. His troubles
were complete when, upon inquiry soon afterwards, he learned
that the per.so❑ who had employed and-insulted him, had left
town.

It happened that at about half-past eleven o'clock on Friday
night, while the cabman was no doubt engaged with hii un-
manageable customer in Baker's-buildings, Mr. Wbithair, the
principal superintendent of the City police, observed in pass-
ing to the Bishopsgate station-house a drab-coloured great
coat with white buttons upon it on the scat of a cab which
seemed to be unattended. Immediately afterwards; as he was
walking along, he saw the piisoner accompanied by other
persons pass by, and two minutes subsequently the prisoner
and one of his companions. again appeared in sight, the
former having across his arm. what appeared to the superin-
tendent to be the great coat which he had just perceived in
the cab. The superintendent followed the prisoner, and
asked him where he had got the coat which he carried, and
the prisoner immediately flung the coat at the superintendent's
legs and ran away. The superintendent followed the pri-
soner, who was stopped in Great Winchester-street by a patrol,
and taken to the station-house. The coat was whipped up by
some person while the superintendent was in pursuit, and had
not been seen since, and nobody concerned in the robbery
had been apprehended, with the exception of the prisoner,
who denied all knowledge of the transaction, but said that he
had, as he saw other persons running, caught the fit of running
himself.

Evidence as to the identity of the prisoner was produced,
but he and his mother repeated their assertion, that those per-
sons who had ,*iven their evidence were wrong as to the point
of identity. The prisoner was remanded in consequence of
the absence of the cabman.

CRIMINAL COURT-WEDNESDAY.

OLD COUI?T.
In the case which was partly reported in The Sun yester-
day, of William Shaw, who was indicted for embezzling and
stealing two guineas, the property of his employers, Messrs.
131ackstock, Dunce, and S7incent, solicitors, in the Temple,
the Jury, after deliberating nearly an hour, pronounced a ver-
dict of—Not Guilty.
The prisoner was again indicted for embezzling and steal-
ing the sum of 41. Os. 10d., the money of his employer,
George Vincent..
The evidence m support of this prosecution was, that the
prisoner received the sum mentioned in the indictment from a
Mr. Biggs, of Southampton-street, and that he subsequently
told a brother clerk not to mention the circumstance to Mr.
Vincent, and that if he (Mr. Vincent) found it out, the clerk
was to say he hacl, the money.
Mr. ADOLPHUS addressed the Jury for the prisoner, con-
tending that the case arose out of the ordinary transactions of
the prosecutor's office, and that there was no reason whatever
to impute felonious conduct to the prisoner.
The Learned JUDGE (Coleridge) having summed up, the
Jury, after consultirg for half an hour, returned a verdict of
These trials occupied the attention of the Court nine hours.

WORSHIP-STREET.

Yesterday Mr. Daniel Algar attended before Mr. BROUGH-
TON and Mr. BARLOW (a county Magistrate), to apply for a
warrant under the following circumstances:—
The applicant stated that on the previous afternoon he was
proceeding up the Hackney-road, when a man came after him
exclaiming that lie must stop. He was not aware that the re-
mark alluded to him till the man appeared before him and de-
sired him to return.
Mr. Brtottourox —Did you know the man?—Applicant—
Oh yes, very well ; ha was a stable-keeper. Applicant
told him ❑ot to cau,:e any interruption, when the man laid
hold of his coat. Applicant stepped back, and remarked to
the man that if he did that again he should deal with him in
another way.
Mr. BROUGHTON-What profession or business are you?
Applicant—l am a merchant in the city, and was on my way
home, to Dalston. Well, the man stopped me again, upon
which I with a stick struck him across the shins. A scuffle
ensued, at which moment a police constable came up and
pinned my arms, when, while in that position, the man gave
me a vit;lent blow upon the mouth. I then told the policeman
to take the man to the station-house, but he refused, on the
ground that he saw me give the first blow. I therefore am
compelled to apply for a warrant.
Mr. BROUGHTON asked No. 12, sergeant of police, if that
were the reason of the police constable refusing the charge ?
—No. 12 replied that it was.
Mr. BROUGHTON remarked that here was a gentleman who
was stopped on the Queen's highway, and who had acted in
self-defence. The charge should have been taken.
The applicant observed that if he had had a pistol with him
he should certainly have shot the man, and it was not the first
time he had done so.
The warrant was granted, and the policeman directed to
attend.

GROUSE SIIOOTING..--Bilds have not been so scarce on Sad-
dleworth moors for the last twenty years as at present; and
what few there are cannot be approached, being chiefly old
birds. The young birds perished in long-continued wet
weather, which was, if possible, worse in the early part of
this week.

The Duke Decazes, and several other Directors of
the Paris and Havre Railroad Company, proceeded a few days
ago to Pontoise to examine the intended line as far as that
first station. The road, of which the terminus is to be the
left of La Villete, is to cross the plain between St. Denis and
the Seine, and will then leave to its right and to its left the
villages of La Barre, Enghcin, Soissy, Pierrelaye, &c., and will
come to Saint- Ouen-l'Aumone, one of the suburbs of Pontoise.
According to the present plan the station is intended to be at
that spot, but the inhabitants of Pontoise solicit that it should
be on the right bank of the river Oise, The line will probably
cross Pontoise a little below the hospital, and from thence will
proceed through the valley which extends as far es Chars. It
is reported that this line, which is to pass through several vil-
lages and one town, will require the demolition of only four
houses. It is probable, however, that several alterations will
be made in the plan. The works are immediately to be en
tered upon, and it is expected that before the end of next sum-
mer the road will be opened as far as Pontoise.

CRUELTY TO ANIMALS.—The " Animals' Friend
Society" of Mark-lane, among several cases last week, caused
Robert Tyson to be fined by Mr. Nethersole, at Miirgate, for
having driven a dog drawing a cart all the way from Ramsgate
to Margate, in about half an hour, loaded with himself, his
wife, and an additional burden ; so that the poor animal was
terribly distressed, and was foaming at the mouth. The Hon.
Secretary, and Gibbins, also caused William French to be
fined 20i. and costs, by Alderman Kelly, for having driven a
horse (in the Fulham omnibus, of Thomas Barttell), which
VV3S covered in plan: -F with hil edilig tumours, on which

HATTON-GARDEN.

Yesterday Hugh Henright, a miserable-looking man, was
charged with stealing a gold watch, chain, and seals, under
very distressing circumstances.
Mr. Jeffs, a silversmith and jeweller, in High-street, St.
Giles's, stated that at eight o'clock on Tuesday- night the pri-
soner deliberately broke his window and took up a gold watch,
&c., of the value of 251. Witness's shopman instantly ran
into the street and captured the accused, who made no attempt
to escape. He gave up the property, observing that his motive
for stealing it was to get sent out of the country, as he was
starving.--The prisoner was fully committed for trial.
