Frank Redmond was placed at the bar and indicted,
charged with having, on the 13th of March last, feloniously
aided, abetted,
.and comforted one Owen Swift in the man-
slaughter of Win. Phelps;otherwise " Brighton Bill."
On the day in question, a prize-fight took place at Mel-
bourne Heath, between Owen Swift and " Brighton Bill." and
from the injuries received in the course of the contest the latter
died. The prisoner had unexpectedly been called upon to act
as second to Swift, and consequently was indicted for having .•
abetted and aided to the results. Upon this occasion, how.
ever, the witnesses for the prosecution failed in identifying
the prisoner as having been
,the second. and therefore the
Court directed an acquittal, which accordingly took place.
On Saturday Richard Curtis and a man of the name of
Brown were put to the bar and arraigned on a similar indict-
ment. The Jury found both prisoners " Guilty," but recom-
mended them-to mercy, on account of the kindness they had
exhibited towards the deceased during his sufferings, and of
the arcod charafters they had previously borne.
The COURT sentenced them to undergo three months' im.
I risOnment with hard labour in the Hertfur4 House of Cor.

" Pauci taciturn dolorem continebant."—Lte.

Is manhood approaches, the human form, counte-
nance, voice, and the whole intellectual character, rapidly
undergo a re7olution. Love is the end and sum of life, creatiog imago
of cr image of ideal perfection. But in the present state of socisiy, pure
and vir units enjoyment is often potation d cod ohstructe I, tin the excess
of youthful impetuosity impels to a c itirse of a lid and injurious indul-
gence, and tha mind bccom s painfully harassed by alternations of fear,
dr.:no, and vasQinn. In this state relief ipiperhaps sought from the incx.
perhaps from the ignorant ; in either case at the expense of
health, that being only palliated which should have liecn effectually cured.
Here we propose to step in and rescue the loci im of unwise indulgence
from the pangs of r emorse, disappointed hope, and disease ; anal we pledge
ourselves to eradicate ever y taint of syphilitie poison, arid to restore to its
wunLid energy every relaxation of the generative economy, whether from
this to other causes, whereby the dignity of manhood shall Lave beeime
impaired ; equally contemning unfeeling ernpj ricism, which with reckless
ignorance destroys whcr c it stioiiid rtsuite; and, ou the other band, that
unworthy " pr.ociple" whose proud sellisimess increases the embarrass
Sent of the Lfflicted. All claasi,s of society, nut exeep hug the A liglo-
Indian, but more especially such as ire Maud to enter into unttrimotiial
life, are tncludod in the limits of this address, and to all we confide..tly
offf:r the ie,ttlt of many years' suetvinful practice.
Daily attendance is given for pent:inn! consultation ; and immediate an.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

VICE- CHANCELLOIV S COURT, Jur.r_ 14.
SALMON V. rilE COMMISSIONERS FOR PAVING AND LIGHTING THE

TOWN 01, CAMBIDGE.
Upon a motion for an injunction was raised a question of
great importance to the-town of Cambridge, whether the
powers of the Commissi;ners under a local Act of 1788 for
purchasing lands for the purpose of widening and improving
the streets were permanent, and a further question occurred
whether the powers, if they existed at present, were properl:•
exercised in this case. The plaintiffs, shopkeepers in the
town, were lessees of some houses in Union-stieet, under the
Colleges of Ttinity Hal an l Corpus. In March last they
took their houses down with a view of rebuilding them
undeethe sanction of their landlorls. When the Commissioners
found the houses were down they came to a resolution to pur-
chase the sites for the purpose of widening and impro% in., that
portion of the street in which the houses were situated, and
which was very narrow and inconvenient. The Commissioners
were not altogether unanimous in this resolution, and it was
admitted they hai no fund in hand for pa) ing the purchase-
money, but it was contemplated to r...ise the necessary amount
by a rate on the inhabitanis at large. It appinred the Act
supposing it to apply to the present intended purchase, ould
make the conveyance complete upon a tender of the value.
The Commissioners had already given notice of their inten-
tion to summon a jury to assess the value, whereupon this bill
was filed to restrain them from proceeding further. The ar-
gum cat occupied two days.
His IloNOUlt, after stating the facts of the case, would grant
an injunction restraining the prosecution of the assessment,
which would be the foundation of the Commissioner's title;
but if there were a question about the power of the Commis
sinners to make a rate he would leave that open, and the Com-
missioners might try their legal right by making a r...te.

PEEL'S PATHETIC APPEAL.

[We copy the following clever Squib from a Morning Contemporary
(the Chronicle). It is (or ought) to be sung this evening by Sir Robert,
at the Merchant Tailors' Hall, before dinner, and the guests may set
to with what appetite is left.]

'Sow winter's frost is past and gone,
And cheerful summer comes,
But still we're left to sigh and groan,
For others cat our crumbs.
Against us is the palace barr'd ;
Whitehall we seek in vain ;
Our lot appears to be ill-starr'd ;
We'll ne'er get place again.
" We'll ne'er get place," oh ! word of fear
That makes our party sad;
It fills with grief my Lyndhurst's ear,
Sets Graham and Stanley mad.
Why did we charge from left to right?
Why ? all exclaim with pain;
And now we're told, our hopes to blight,
We'll ne'er get place again.
Sly Aberdeen vows night and day
He cannot longer wait;
And Goulburn sighs for quarter day,
And Sugden looks sedate.
Lord Francis to Lord Sandon speaks
In mild and courtly strain,
And drawls, " My heart it almost breaks;
We'll ne'er get place again."
Lord Lorton, in the Upper House
(As some it please to call),
Joins, slumbering Tories to arouse,
With Wicklow and Glengall ;
While Londonderry, pink of peers,
Distuibs his feather brain,
And roars, mid ministerial cheers,
" We'll ne'er get place again."
This was the learned Jackson's hope,
For this did Litton, West,
Denounce the Ministers and Pope,
With Shaw, and all the rest ;
'T was this that made the Colonels "four"
All ridicule disdain ;
Though now they shout in wild uproar,
We'll ne'er get place again.
Kilmarnock's " Saint" 4- his tale of woe
In vain doth nightly tell,
How Orange blood is made to flow,
How Popish murders swell ;
And Times and Standard both unite
To " slay again the slain;"
But still they hint in all they write,
We'll ne'er get place again.

Then, Winchilsea, oh ! cease the bray,
It cannot serve our case ;
And thou, my Phlllpotts, weia-day,
May close thy pious jaws.
Sir Francis, too, may stay at home;
What boots his pranks insane,
When he must hear, where'er he roams,
We'll ue'er get place again?

May 9, 1838.

The gallant four are Conetly, Perceval, Thomas. and Verner, and
never before did so warlike a quartet band come to the rescue of Tory-
ism in St. Stephen's. Gad a mercy ! What would holiest " Jack
Falstaff" say, who was himself a Right good Conservative of the olden
times, could he but behold our four Hibernian chieftains !
t The emptying of the " grievance wallet" of the Member for Kil-
marnock was, perhaps, as serio-comic an exhibition as has taken place
in St. Stephen's for a length of time, and was extremeely useful, so far
as it enabled Lord Morpeth to afford a sample of the meek disposition
of the persecuted Orange party in Ulster.

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, MAY 11.
The imports of Wheat, Oats, and other Grain were extremely light
during the last two days, and with Flour and Oatmeal we were also
barely supplied. The Wheat crops have not progressed much since our
last report, owing to cold easterly winds, which have succeeded the
warm weather of last week. Wheat was in poor request this day, as
were also Oats and Oatmeal ; but we have no variation to notice from
the rates of Tuesday. Flour moved off tolerably well at our last quota-
tions, and Grinding Barley being extremely scarce was in demand at an
improvement of 2d. per 60 lbs., but malting qualities, owing to the
working season having nearly concluded, were selling at a decline of Is.
per quarter.

The Prince and Princess of Capua dined with the
Duke of Sussex at Kensington-palace on Wednesday evening. A se-
lea party was invited to meet their Royal Highnesses.

GARDENING OPERATIONS FOR

THE WEEK.

(From the Gardener? Gazette.)
MI MPS must have no sun let down the top cloth carefully, as the
sun comes round; but keep up as much of it as possible when the sun is.
otf. The side cloths must be put up directly, to enclose the stage.
Where Tulips are only hooped and matted, the same care must be
used, to let them have all the air, when the sun is not shining, to pre-
vent thair drawing.

HYACINTHS must be protected in a similar way, as nearly as prac.
icable. •

CARNATIONS must be freely watered ; sticks should be placed in them
to train the flowering stems as they advance.
All tender Annuals, Balsams, Cockscombs, &c., tobe bloomed in pots,
should be constantly removed to fresh hot-beds, and shifted into larger
pots.

DAHLIAS should be placed in cold frames, if well established, pre.
viously to being planted out.
• Seeds of Annuals should be sown, now, in the open borders, in small
patches.
Watuttowsits, of the double kind, should be propagated wherever
there is any growth of side shoots, which strike very readily under hand.
Masses.
Plant Tube-roses in pots, forty-eight size.

Turn all Gravel Walks, mow Lawns frequently, clip Box edgings.
Weed carefully, and destroy the weeds as soon as they are cut up. In
all full small crops it should be done by small hoeing, or hand weeding,
lettuce, onions, leeks, spinach, carrots, parsnips, &c., require this.
Top Bears which are about to open their flowers.
Sow ENDIVE.
Sow successive crops of Peas : the large kinds will do best.
Other subjects as before.

COPYRIGHT BILL.

Lord F. EGERTON presented five petitions from congregations in
Manchester, praying for the immediate abolition of negro appren.
ticeship. He had also a petition to present with such names at-
tacked to it, as rendered it a high honour to have had it placed

name of Mary Somerville (Hear)—of Johanna Bailey (Hoar.)
Ile also found a name attached to. the petition that would be received
with great respect on the other aide of the Atlantic—Harriet Martineau.
—(Hear, hear.) There were also the names of Lucy Aiken, Sarah Por-
ter, and Letitia Landon. There were also the names of R. Southey'
Samuel Rogers, Leigh Hunt—and altogether there was no name attached
to the petition that was not distinguished in some respect or other with
eminence for literature, except one, which he would take leave to men.

he had presented it with very great reluctance.—(Cries of " Hear,

Morning minutes after 4 I Evening 47 minutes after 4

AT a MEETING of the COMMITTEE of
the CENTRAL NEGRO EMANCIPATION SOCIETY,
held at No. 25, Tokenhouse.yard, the 11th day of May, 1838,

It wu resolved unanimously,
" That this Committee have learned with feelings of the deepest
concern and regret, that the Right Honourable Lord Charles
Fitzroy, whose conduct in voting in favour of Sir George
Strickland's motion entitles him to the respect of every friend
of humanity, should have been made a " victim " to his
principles by being removed from the office of Vice• Chamberlain
to Her Majesty. The Committee, whilst they feel bound thus to record
their admiration of the high sense of moral principle, which has marked
the conduct of Lord Charles Fitzroy, cannot but regard the act of the
Government of the country on this occasion, as a renewed, melancholy
proof, of their being swayed by views which must tend to destroy the
confidence of the reflecting and virtuous portion of the commnnity in
their fitness to wield the interests of a Christian empire."

THE CHURCH.

Mr. GOULBURN presented a petition, praying that the product of
any improvements in the management of Church property be applied to
strictly Spiritual purpose&

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL, in answer to a question from Sir E.
Sugden, said that he should give notice before he proposed to read a se_
eond time his Law Bills.

Lord J. RUSSELL postponed the Controverted Election.; Bill for a
fortnight, in order to afford an opportunity for the second reading of
the Bill proposed last night by the Hon. Member for Tamworth.
Lord J. RUSSELL said that he proposed now to move the Order of
the Day for the House going into Committee on the Benefices Plu_
ralities Bill, and if they got through the Committee of that Bill, then he
should propose to proceed with the Ecclesiastical Bill.
Mr. GOULBURN—No, no.
UNION WORKHOUSES.

Sir JAMES GRAHAM wished to call the attention of her
Majesty's Government to a subject of some importance before
the Budget was brought on. The success of that great mea-
sure, the Poor-law Bill in England, depended upon every facility being
given for the purpose of the enlargement of the work-houses...—
(Hear.) It would be in the recollection of this House that lit was ori-
ginally proposed to advance money by the Government for that purpose,
to be repaid in 10 years. Since then the period of payment had been
extended to twenty years. Now he understood that several apPlica-
tiens for advances ha/ beet made, which were refused on the ground
that there was no further sums available for the purpose of such works,
He was anxious, before the Budget was brought forward, to call this sub.
ject to the attention of her Majesty's Government, because the suspending
of those advances would, doubtless, retard the progress of the Poor_
law Bill. He did not wish an answer from the Noble Lord then, but
was only desirous of calling the subject to his attention.
Lord J. RUSSELL said the advances already made had greatly ex-
ceeded the sum originally contemplated.
London, England, 1838-05-12

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sir,—lt having been stated in the House of Commons that the re-
maining portion of the fourth edition of Mr. Bulwer's England and the
English had been sold for one shilling a volume, I think it necessary to
observe that such sale was part of a general transaction with a whole-
sale dealer and exporter. Had the copes of this work (which has
gone through four large impressions) been alone concerned, I cer.
tainly should have insisted on very different terms. I may add, that
sefar from the interest in England and the English having ceased, I
have been led to consider it probable that the author may publish a
new edition in a single volume, with corrections and additions.
I am, Sir, your most obedient servant,

Mr. BROTHERTON moved that the House be counted. The gal-

CHANCERY-COURT.--THIS DAY.

The LORD CHANCELLOR sat in Lincoln'; Inn Hall, to day.
SALMON, &C. V. RANDALL, &C.

This case came before the Court upon appeal trom the decision of the
Honourable, the Vice-Chancellor, granting an injunction reArain-
ing the defendants from summoning a jury to assess the value of certain
property belonging to the plaibtiffs. The defendants are some of the
Commissioners for improving the town of Cambridge; and the plaintiffs
are the Lessees of the ground, upon which, formerly stood two
houses which had been pu'led down by them, and upon which they
were now erecting new ones in their room. The land in question was
required by the defendants for the purpose of the improvement of Cam-
bridge. Notice had been given to that effect to the plaintiffs, who con.
tended that the defendants were not entitled to take the land without
giving them compensation for the new buildings they had partly erected.
The defendants, Os the other hand, submitted that they were only
bound to give compensation for the value of the land, inasmuch as they
had given notice to the plaintiffs that the land was required before
the new erections were commenced. Under these circumstances the
defendants felt themselves bound to summon a Jury to award the
compensation they should give. Upon the case coining before the Vice-
Chancellor, he granted the injunction, restraining the defendants from
adapting that course; and front that dedsion the present appeal was
brought.

Mr. KNIGHT Bnucz appeared for the defendants; and Mr. JACOB and
Mr. GIRDLESTONE for the plaintiffs.
Mr. KNIGHT BRUCE was opening the defendants' case when our
Reporter left. The matter appears likely to occupy the Court the whole
of to-day and tomorrow.
