THE NEW REFORM BILL,

TO THE EDITOR OF THE sub.
Sin,—Persons are beginning to discuss the intended
New Reform Bill, and every individual appears to have
a particular panacea for rendering the new bill, in his
opinion, perfect, and what it ought to be ; and I feel
anxious that in mending the constitution we should make
a good job of it—therefore,
First--I should recommend that the suffrage should
be enjoyed by ratepayers, and by ratepayers alone, for
the people are the source of all power and wealth. Every
person, except dealers in ale, spirits, and wine, who has
paid his poor-rates for the space of one year, and who is
duly registered, should be a voter.
Second—Members of Parliament ought to be elected
for the space of three years, and should not be put to the
trouble of a fresh election for accepting a place under
any Government ; but members ought to have the pri-
vilege of resigning their places, upon the payment of a
small fine.
Third—The voting at all elections ought to be by
ballot, and no person should be allowed to vote except
his vote was given in secret.
Fourth—The United Kingdom should be divided into
electoral districts, so as to give two members to about
every 10,000 ratepayers, the number of members re-
maiinng as at present.
Fifth—No person should be elected a member of Par-
liament who could not prove himself to be worth 500/.

per annum.
If Lord John's New Reform Bill embraces the above-
named conditions, I think the people will be satisfied
with it. Perhaps the present forty-shilling freeholders
may say that the above plan is too hard upon them, but
I contend that tax-paying persons, and not property,
ought to be represented. The only party which ought
to be represented is that which bears a proportionate
part of the burdens of the country ; and no Reform Bill
will every satisfy the people that does not embrace th7t
principle.—l am, sir, &c.,

SHERIFFS COURT.

(Before R. Gurney, Esq., and a Special Jury.)
FRENCH COLLEGIATE EDUCATION.-HULLEN V. PATE

The plaintiff in this action is M. Hullen, the principa,
of the College at Boulogne. The defendant is a gentle-
man, formerly residing at Westerham, Kent, and the
claim made was for 151. Bs., the balance of an account
for board and education, and extras, on behalf of the son
of the defendant.
Mr. Hawkins appeared, for the plaintiff, and Mr.
_Robinson for the defendant.
It appeared from the evidence that the defendant
placed his son under the tuition of the plaintiff, and
paid down a sum of 251., which was equivalent to one
year's charges, and the only question was whether the
defendant undertook to pay for extras, one of which
charged was for a seat in a pew in the Protestant church.
There were other items charged for, and the supply was
not disputed, and defendant paid 41. into Court and dis-
puted the remainder.
The plaintiff was ,re-examined and gave distinct evi-
dence that he gave the defendant clear information as to
the terms of the Institution, and that he had made
frequent demands through his solicitors.
The defendant, in re-examination, declared positively
that he considered the sum paid was to be the con-
sideration for the education, without extras.
Mr. Hawkins argued that that was impossible, as the
defendant had not specified any period at which the pupil-
age was to extend, and it therefore could not be conceived
that the plaintiff could have intended to have kept the
lad for an indefinite period, and the defendant had
withdrawn his son at once, without notice.
The jury gave a verdict for the sum claimed.

MEXICAN AND SOUTH AMERICAN MINING COMPANY.
—At the half-yearly meeting of this company, held
yesterday, it was announced that a dividend of 7s. 6d.
per share will be payable on the 20th of January. The
progress of the undertaking is considered satisfactory,
although a prolongation of the dry season has in some
respects interfered with the full delivery of ores. A
favourable change had occurred at the date of the latest
advices, and there was every anticipation of smelting
operations being actively proceeded with. The n
at Caldera for the reduction of silver ores
and the manmfacture of copper would be in operation at
the close of the year.

LAW INTEL.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
:Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.)

IN RE STRUTT.

This bankrupt, described as a solicitor, and who had
been connected with the Era newspaper and the
Lyceum Theatre, came up to-day to apply for his cer-

tificate.
The accounts prepared by Messrs. Glover and Son,
were published a short time since in The Sun, and one
of the items was a mortgage on property, belonging to
the Duke of Buckingham, and a claim on the Lyceum

Theatre'
Mr. Lawrance appeared to support the• application,
which was opposed by Mr. Bayley, on the ground that
the returns had not been satisfactory as to the debts
claimed by the bankrupt.
His Honour considered that an adjournment should
take place, to ascertain the amount to be received on
account of the estate, as little had been got in although
the items in the balance sheet appeared in favour of the
creditors. _ _

Mr. Lawrence said his client would heartily concur in
an adjournment, if it were understood that there was
no imputation on the bankrupt.
His Honour—Certainly none ; but an adjournment
is necessary.
Mr. Bagley said the only object was an inquiry, and
time had not been allowed if certain questions were ex-
plained, all opposition would be withdrawn.
An adjournment was then taken for three months.

Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD.

"Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent 'practi-
cal contributions to German medical literature. This is tho first
time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non- medi-
cal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall
detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in tits
cower to correct."—London Medical Gazette, May 30. W,51.
" We promised in a former number that wo should recur to this
work, in order to exhibit its aim more clearly. The author lashes
with great severity the impostors who make a livelihood by preying
on the credulity of the public. The tribe of ' Quiet gym? itbisers,*
and Medical Friends,' are mercilessly exposed; and if t his book
could find its way into the hands of those who stiffer from 1;h com-
plaint of which it treats, we are satisfied that many hundrrAs Would
be saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of
less importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize--
much money... ...This volume is well qualified to put an end to the
empirical system of treating Spermatorrhcea, and to place the treat-
ment upon a more rational and physiologlealthasis. It is, therefore,
likely to do much good."—Medical Circular, June 16, 1862.

Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of Engtenet.

"In proof of his views he (Mr. Courtenay) has given
he history of a great many cases successfully treated, as bad
as any which Mr. Byrne adduced, and on which he hate operated.
Such are cases ix., xi., xii., and xviii. No. ix. had resisted, for a
oeriod of twelve years, the treatment by di tation' and eras finally
removed in as many Weeks. But cases xviii. and xix. appear, both
I n duration, severity, and complication of symptoms, of a more ag-

treatment adopted by Mr. Courtenay proved eminently saccessfhl."

most eminent scientific and medical men of the day, to be " a very
agreeable and efficient tonic, as a general beverage both for the inva-
lid and the robust; and as tending, from the pure and wholesome
nature of the ingredients employed, the moderate proportion of
alcohol present, and the very considerable quantity of aromatic
anodyne bitter derived from hors alone, which they contain, to pre-
serve the tone and vigour of the stomach, and to conduce to the
restoration of that organ when in a state of weakness, debility, or
irritability."

In all cases in which Malt Liquors are suitable, none meet the de..
sired effect more certainly, none arc prescribed with more contidenr,e
by the Faculty. " The careful manner in which the fennen tatior, is
conducted, causes them to assimilate to Foreign Wines more than
the ordinary ales of this country ; and on this account the- r do not
occasion that acidity of stomach created by the less perfectly fer-
mented ales." " These Bitter Beers differ from all other prepara-
tions of malt, in containing a smaller amount of extractive matter,
thus being less viscid and saccharine, and consequently mot a) easy of
digestion. They resemble, indeed, from their lightness, a wino of
Malt rather than an ordinary fermented infusion ; and it is ♦ery sa-
tisfactory to find that a beverage of such general consumpt ion is en-
tirely free from every kind of impurity."

CLERKENWELL-4 THIS DAY).

John Smith, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with
stealing a cap from a young boy, under the following
circumstances :

It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner, in
company with a gang of young thieves, are in the habit
of hanging about the New River-road, Islington, and
when they see a respectably-dressed boy, to take his cap
off and run away. Last night about half-past six, they
attacked the prosecutor in the Lower-road, took his cap
and ran off. The prisoner, who is well known to the
police, was found with the cap in his possession. The
prisoner, who had nothing to say in his defence, was
committed for trial.

The business of the Court did not commence until 10
minutes to 11.

STATE OF THE WOOLLEN T ADE.

(From the Leeds Mercury of this day.)
In the foreign wool market this week there has not
been quite so good a demand for foreign or colonial wools
during the week. Prices for all descriptions are well
supported. In the English wool market, however, there
has been a considerable amount of sales effected during
the present week, both in combing and clothing wools,
at rather improved prices. With regard to cloths, there
was only a moderate business done in the cloth-halls on
Saturday and Tuesday. The attendance of merchants
was only limited, as they were no doubt occupied in ba-
lancing their last year's accounts. There have been a few
buyers in town this week, but as yet the trade of the
year has not fairly started in the warehouses, The
Bradford worsted market is on the whole rather flat,
nevertheless prices are on the advance. The trade is
principally supported by the home demand, that of the
continent being very poor indeed. So much is this the
case, that gross yarns for European manufacture are 15
per cent. less in value than the same yarns on spools for
domestic consumption. The delaine manufacture in
Lancashire is so injured by the present high prices, that
hundreds of looms are standing, and yet with the high
rates demandedfor wool by the farmers, yarns and pieces
must rise still higher, if business is carried on as largely
as it is.
London, England, 1853-01-08

AUSTRIA.

A telegraphic dispatch dated Vienna, Thursday,
says :—" Baron Prokesch Osten is named Minister
Plenipotentiary and President of the Germanic
Confederation." _

A letter from Vienna states that the coronation
of the Emperor of Austria is to take place in May
next.' " The system of a separate coronation,"

says the letter,- " has been abandoned, and the
coronation this time will put the seal to the unity
of the Empire."
Sir H. Lytton Bulwer has left Florence, on leave
of absence. Mr. Erskine carries on the business of
the embassy until his return.

RUSSIA.
A letter from St. Petersburg announces that the
Church of the East has triumphed to a certain ex-
tent in the question of the sanctuaries. The read-
ing of the firman favourable to the Greek Church
has led to a marked reparation to the consul-gene-
ral of Russia at Jerusalem. Neither the patriarchs
of the Latin and Armenian Churches, nor the con-
sul of France were invited to a meeting in presence
of the members of the Divan, magistrates, and of
the Greek patriarch. Tile firman accorded to the
Greeks in 1840 is confirmed by a new ordonnance
of the Sultan. The firman of 1840 permits the
Greeks to celebrate mass twice in the chapel of the
Mount of Olives, whilst the Roman Catholics can
only celebrate it once. The pretensions of the
Greeks to the Holy Sepulchre have been admitted.
Tne official journal of Wurtemburg states that
the difference between the Porte and Montenegro
will be soon removed, as Russia and Austria intend
interfering to regulate the matter amicably.
The St. -Petersburgh Journal states that on the
morning of the 26th ult. there were 504 cholera pa-
tients, and that in the course of the day there were
43 new cases, 63 cures, and 12 deaths ; on the 27th,
in the morning, there were 472 patients, and in the
course of the day 27 new cases, 38 cures, and 12
deaths. A letter from Kalisch, states that the
cholera has never raged more fearfully than this
year in the countries where it has prevailed. Out
of 90,000 persons attacked, 35,000 have perished.
London, England, 1853-01-08

IN RE TAMSETT.

The bankrupt was a builder, at Woolwich. This was
the certificate meeting. His unsecured debts were
2,416/. ; assets about 2,000/.
On behalf of the assignees, the London and County
Bank, no opposition was offered.
Mr. Hudson, on behalf of the bankrupt, urged that
the case was one for an immediate certificate.
His Honour observed that there had been no stock
taking ; and the bankrupt had gone on without making
any nett profit. He had kept no cash book ; but as there
was no opposition, a second-class certificate would be
granted.

IN RR BRADBURY.—OAPTURS OF A RUNAWAY BANKRUPT.
(
The bankrupt, A. Bradbury, was a cheesemonger, of
Holburn. He had absconded before the bankruptcy,
taking with him above 2001. in money and goods. He
had gone to Glasgow and paid 901. for the passage of
himself and wife to Australia by a vessel called the Uncle
Tom. Mr. Hamber, the messenger of this court, was
sent in pursuit of the bankrupt, and went first to the Isle
of Wight and afterwards to Liverpool, where the move-
ments of the fugitive were ascertained. The Uncle Tom,
when a very short time out from Glasgow, was overtaken
by the late severe storm, and, being dismasted, was com-
pelled to put into the harbour of Douglas, in the Isle of
Man. The bankrupt took lodgings at a boarding-house,
and was there found and captured by the messenger.
About 1501. of the property was found in his possession.
He now came up to surrender under the adjudication.
His Honour said he had been guilty of a very improper
and foolish act, but he hoped his future conduct would
be satisfactory to the creditors.

IN RE SUMMERS.
This was the certificate meeting in the case of Philip
Summers, fancy printer and embosser, of Tabernacle-
walk. His accounts, prepared by Mr. Pettis, extended
over twelve months prior to the sth of January last, and
showed debts amounting to 2,4751., and assets about
1,050/.

•
Mr. Lowrance supported.
Mr. Matthews opposed, for the assignees, chiefly on
the ground of excessive personal expenditure.
His Honour granted a second class certificate.

STRANGE FISIL—In the Mediterranean, Chinnereth,
and Semechonitis, as also in the Jordan, are found many
kinds of fish, which are nevertheless essentially different
from the European ones. Some are found which weigh
thirty pounds. In the sea, near Jaffa, there is found at
times a species of fish which emits a phosphorescent
light in the dark, not unlike rotten wood. This peculiar
property of the fish is only destroyed when it is put
over the fire, or immersed in hot water. There is found,
likewise, in the sea of Chinnereth, a very fat fish, Al
Barbud, which has no scales, wherefore it is not eaten
by Jews. There are two kinds of fish known as Shebuta,
Al Sabuta, one of which is as large as a hog, and is very
fat and well-flavoured. It is not met with in Palestine,
and is only caught in the Indian seas, and especially
near Fiume. It ispi known among the Italians as Ta,nina.
The other is a smaller species, has tender flesh, and is
salted before beingleaten,

The market was re-opened on Wednesday last after the
Christmas recess, but the show of samples was miserably
small, and the stock here of West India is very nearly ex-
hausted; the few lots brought forward this week have
found ready buyers at prices fully 5d above the currency
previous to the holidays,. Refined produce has met e
brisk sale, at advanced prices. Rum is rather dull, but
prices are well suppnrted.
