Lave spent a long fife in open arms against the
Whigs. Why, then, is he not now suffered peacefully,
to retire into the privacy of his own family, that the
evening of his days may be spent as becomes a Chris-
tian, conscious that he stands on the verge of e'.er-
tritv ? Why should this poor old man have his
infirmities trumpetted, his peace of mind destroyed,
and the calm evening of his life clouded to advance
the selfish interests of a base, discomfited faction ? It
appears that the Tories of Bristol have got up an
address to Mr. DANIEL, in which his rejection by
the Government is attributed to his principles. His
principles indeed I—as if the stability of the Govern-
ment depended upon the favour of a Bristol 'Municipal
Magistrate. Had the Government been so very fearful
of the principles of the Bristol Tories, it would hardly
have appointed six Tories to occupy the judicial bench
of that city.

All tenderness for the Executive, in matters
which before now were approached with as much re-
verence by the Conservative organs as a Pharisee would
e4hibit in °palling the books of the law, is now flung
aside, and we see openly confronting us the revilers
of all prerogative. The nation is threatened with
Mr. DANIEL'S wrath, and his MAJESTY is in-
solently charged with having " insulted" the Bristol
functionary, by' the exercise of his lawful prerogative !
Here is a sample of Conservative loyalty which we defy
SATAN himself to match,

Old Grandmamma is in a terrible state about the
Foreign appointments of the present Government.
She protests that her "peace is gone"—her " heart
is broken," in counselling that most indocile of Mi-
nisters—Lord PALMERSTON. She asks this morn-
ing, in great alarm, after running over the list of the
Foreign appointments," who is there but must
tremble at the consequences which so many mistaken
delegations of the kingly power but too fearfully repre-
sent?" This is as pithily as it is pathetically put to
all the venerable cronies of Granny ; and we are confi-
dent that they will all elevate their crutches, and cry
" Nobody !" But as we have nothing to do with
Granny's coterie, we participate in none of her alarms.

TAPIIONE.—This New instrument for in-
creasing the Power of the Ear, will be found particularly
useful in Churches, Courts of Law, the Houses of Parliament,
Theatres, and all large assemblies, concentrating the sound by
strenghthening the internal organs. It removes dullness of hear-
ing, and will be found available in many of the most frequent
causes of deafness. Those whose organs are unimpaired, will at
once perceive the benefit it is calculated to afford, by the louder
sound of their own voices. When worn it occasions no alteration
to the head or face, is self-supported, and can be carried in the
waistcoat pocket.

We beg to direct particular attention to the sub-
stance of a Petition from the House of Assembly of
Lower Canada to the KING in Council, which will
be found in another column. We shall endeavour to
find space for a few remarks upon it to-morrow.

The Paris papers of Sunday are filled with ru-
mours on the subject of the war in Spain. They do
not, however, contain any statements worthy of notice.
The Journal des Dehats devotes a long article to an
examination of the relative strength of the belligerents
in the Basques, of which a translation will be found
in another column.

The Courrier Frncais states that the Great
Northern PoWers are exerting themselyzs, through
their representatives at Paris, in procuring the issuing
of the last series of tl.Greek Loan. Of course the
Bavarians are in want of money. As to the Greeks,
all they will have to do with the loan will be to pay
the interest of it, with a view to enrich Royal fa-
vourites.

which its rancid qualities are destroyed, and it becomes so delicious a

pRODIGIOUS!-ANOTHER NEW
KING !
It happened, one day, as I stroll'd through the Strand,
At Warren's fain'd Warehouse I came to a stand,
Where batteries of Blacking were pil'd on the ground,
Sufficient to polish this planet all round.
I've travell'd by day and I've rambled by night,
But I never beheld such a glorious sight;
'Twere injustice this wonder mere Blacking to call,
For it shone through the bottle, cork, label, and all.
Lucky Warren ! thought I, in the time of King James
They had tried ysu for witchcraft; and, doom'd to the flames,
Your Magic Black Art had excited such ire,
That you quickly had found "all your fat in the fire."
Rejoice that you live in more fortunate days,
Surrounded by Blacking, and glory, and praise;
New honours await thee, il-lustre-ous man,
And nations proclaim thee the King of Japan.
This Easy shining and Brilliant Blacking prepared by ROBERT
WA RREN, 3t', Strand, London ; and sold in every Town in the United
Kingdom.

ISLINGTON MARKET.

Mr. ADoLmus applied to the Court, on the part of the
proprietor of the Islington Cattle Market, for leave to open
that market. The petition was supported by the afliavit of
Mr. Perkins. Mr. Collett (the solicitor to the Bill before
Parliament), the architect and surveyor of the market, and
the district surveyor, also put in affidavits as to the solidity
and convenience of the market.
Sir P. LAURIE said he had gone over the market on
Saturday, and was perfectly satisfied with it. He was of
opinion it would be a great benefit to this great metropolis.
Mr. WHISKIN thought the drainage was not perfect.
Mr. LAURIE said the surface of the market was fifteen
feet above the level of Ludgate-hill.
After some further observations, the Court granted the
prayer of the petition.
Mr. Sergeant ADAMS then briefly addressed the Gentle-
men of the Bar, and expressed his hope that a good under-
standing would be maintained between himself and the
Learned Gentlemen ; adding, that he would do all in his
power to forward the bu,!.,;ess of the Court, and cultivate a
reciprocity of good feeling between the Bench and the Bar.
Mr. ADOLPHUS, on the part of the Bar, said, frorri his
long knowledge of the Learned ChAirman, hp pn,..inobt
-2 D., brurrerally would en-
tertain those sentiments of respect for the Bench which
could alone procure unanimity.
Two men named Evans and Baring were indicted for
stealing a ham, the property of Sarah Thorn.
The case was proceeding, when the Court ordered that
the ham should be produced. The constable, however,
produced nothing but a " bare bone," which he said he had
marked. It also appeared that the persons who took the
ham from the prisoners were not present, it being more
than conjectured that they had taken a fancy to it, and eat
it, and therefore abstained from appearing to-day to give
evidence.
The CHAIRMAN said, in the absence of all identity of the
ham, the prisoners must be acquitted. He also told the
police constable, that in future he must be cautious of se-
curing the articles charged to be stolen in the precise state
in which they were found at the time, and must be pre-
served entire, in order to be produced in Court, or it would
tie impossible to convict a prisoner.
The Jury pronounced a verdict of Not Guilty.
Several other minor cases were disposed of, and the Court
adjourned till to-morrow (this day).

IRISH CORPORATE REFORM.

Mr. GILLON presented a petition from Lanark and
another from Linlithgow, stating that the petitioners were
impressed with the advantages which England and Scot-
land had derived from Municipal Reform, and praying the
House to grant a similar measure of Reform to Ireland.
The Hon. Member also presented a petition from Lanark
praying that a W. suffrage might be extended to that
boroug ; and a petition from 5,000 inhabitants of Kirkin-
tulloch, praying the House not to grant any money as an
additional endowment to the Church of Scotland.
ELECTIVE FRANCHISE. _

Mr. C. FERGUSON presented a petition from the
magistrates and householders of the borough of Castle
Douglas, praying for an extension of the extensive franchise.
The petitioners stated that the franchise ought to be the
same as in the royal burghs.
LIGHT-HOUSES.

The HoN. MEMBER then stated that he wished to make
a few observations in explanation of what had fallen from
him regarding Light-houses. He had received a communi-
cation from the engineer, to whom he had then alluded,
requesting him to state whether the report of his speech
was accurate, which attributed to him (Mr. C. Ferguson)
having used the words that the engineer had made a
survey of the Harbour of Kirkcudbright on a Sunday.
What he had stated was that the engineer had made a
survey on one day, which he supposed had been mistaken
for Sunday. He had been requested to make this correc-
tion, which he did because the individual stated that the
error had caused great injury to him and his family, and it
would be extremely improper that that erroneous impression
should go abroad.

DANISH CLAIMS.

ON TILE PREFERENCE DUE TO THE
SHIPPING CLAIMS.
The question whether justice is to be done to thi
Shipping Claimants for losses by the Danes may,
perhaps, come on to-morrow evening, or whenever the
grant to the other class is brought forward in the
Supplies.
The case is this :
The aggressions of Great Britain, which in them-
selves were a departure from the usages and law of
nations, paved the way for the retaliation inflicted by
Denmark on the private property of British subjects.
These aggressions were made with a deliberate know-
ledge that Denmark might, in consequence, with r.er-
feet legality, confiscate ships and cargoes belonging to
British subjects in her ports and seas. Mc sa-
crce of this description of property was thus evi-
dently premeditated by the British Government,
while, on the other hand, the sequestration of book-
debts being unusual, was not anticipated-as an ordi-
nary consequence of the acts of Great Britain.
The question thence arises-
If tee indemnify parties who have been wronged
by others, as the book creditors are said to have been,
ought we not for stronger reasons to repair the in-
juries we ourselves have occasioned ?
The solution of this question of preference as be-
tween the two classes of claimants, would seem, there-
fore, to depend on another preliminary question.
Whether a wrong doer be more bound to renair
wilfid injury than a casual or inadvertent one, when
the ii jury in each instance arises from his original
misfeasance?
The very first aggression, that of seizing the Danisll
ships and cargoes prior to hostilities, could only be ju.s-
tified as securing the means of providing indemnity for
the British shipping and cargoes, which the British
Government must have anticipated would otherwise
fall a sacrifice, in consequence of it and of the intended
further aggressions ; and there can be no doubt that it
would be more just to indemnify the Shipping claimants
out of the Danish prize money received by the country,
than ,it is to pay the book debts out of it, which, it is
acknowledged, the Danes, and not the people of Eng-
land, ought to pay, and the payment of which the
Treaty of Kiel (lid provide for.

AQUATICS.
THE LADE MATCH OF Ma. ROBlNSON.—Considerable anx-

relative to the state of this gentleman. It had been rumoured
that he was suffering most severely from hi, late exertion, and
that the muscle of one of his arms was considerably distended.
On inquiry of his trainer (to whose house he was conveyed
after leaving his boat), we were informed that the statement
as to any injury was totally groundless. [le had oily Leen in

JOCKEY CLUB.-At a meeting of the Jockey Club, held
on Monday, the 21st ult., it was resolved that the following
rule be substituted for No. 33 of the rules concerning horse-
racing in general :—" 33. Where horses run a dead heat for
a sweepstakes or plate, and the parties agree to divide the
stakes, such horses shall be liable to carry extra weight as
winners; and all bets between such horses, or between either
of them and the field, must be settled by the money betted
being put together and divided between the parties, in the
same proportion as the stakes shall have been divided. If a
bet be made on one of the horses that ran the dead heat against
a horse that was beaten in the race, he who backed the horse
that ran the dead heat wins half his bet. If the dead heat be
the first event of a double bet, the bet shall be void." It was
also resolved, that in the second clause of the 44th rule of
the Jockey Club, the words " including the 21b. allowed" be
omitted.

DONCASTER RACES. —ln order to increase the interest and
attractions of the ensuing meeting, it was decided at the meet-
ing of the new Town Council, held on Tuesday last, that the
sum of four hundred sovereigns should be appropriated in aug-
mentation of several of the prizes to be contended for on that
occasion. This sum, in addition to the King's hundred, the
subscriptions from the town itself, by the Stewards, &c., will
present a total amount, given for the encouragement of the
races, of little less than 1,0001. The liberality thus evinced
by all parties cannot fail to increase the number of competitors
for the respective prizes, to diffuse satisfaction amongst all the
breeders and trainers, and to render the meeting more attrac-
tive to all the lovers of the turf.

PONY TROTTING MATCH. —A trotting match took place yes-

SPIERS V. RAPHAEL.

This was a special jury case. The action was brought
for an encroachment on certain ancient common rights pos-
sessed by the inhabitants of Thames Ditton, in a large
plot of land of about twenty acres, known as the Great
Basing-field.
The plaintiff was a Gentleman of fortune,- and a magis-
trate for the county, living at Thames-Ditton. The de-
fendant, Alexander Raphael, Esq., a short time back She-
riff of London, was likewise a resident in the same village.
There was in the village a large plot of land, known as
Great Basing-field, which was held by .different tenants
under a peculiar tenure. From seed time till harvest, the
different parcels belonged exclusively to the several holders
of the title thereto, but after the crop was removed, or after
Old Laminas, it became, till next seed time, common land,
on which any householder or landholder in the village of
Thames Ditton was entitled to turn cattle. Mr. Raphael
held a large portion of this land, subject, of course, to the
restriction on his rights of possession before named.
But it seems he has a great passion for making brick walls
and he
a gate, which
—that, at least, was his prevailing passion latterly,
had thought proper to build up a wall dividing the portion
of the field in which lie had only a limited interest from the
till after harvest, when he
hreestk,elpetas,eilnegseodniliyearossmeaeldl gtaimp
time till
he fixed
allowed it to be open. The cutting up the 'soil and the
raising thereon this brick wall, was the encroachment now
complained of. •
A long conversation took place between the Counsel and
attorneys on each side in a whispered tone of voice, and a
paper being drawn up, containing the terms of reference on
which they mutually were agreed, the case was terminated

REX V. PRESTON.

This was an indictment against the same defendant.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said he made no- preliminary
observations on this case. He had a plain duty to discharge,
and felt the most perfect indifference as to the result—for
if the defendants were innocent he should feel perfectly sa-
tisfied with an acquittal.
After hearing the evidence of a man, named Gardiner,
and some other witnesses, the Jury said they could not credit
the evidence of Gardiner. Verdict—Not Guilty.

MAGAZINES-CONTINUED.

THE RAILWAY MAGAZINE FOR APRIL—
Herapalls.
1. The first great principle is, that every line should be so
laid out that it may diffuse the greatest quantity of benefit to
the country lying between the place from which it starts and
that to which it is intended to be carried.
2. All existing interosts, except those directly affected by
by the new mode of transit, should be interfered with as little
as possible, unless beneficially.
3. The new line of traffic ought to deviate from the old,
wherever towns are concerned, the least that the ground will
permit.

4. Domestic comforts or privacy should not be invaded, if it
be possible to avoid it.
5. In laying down a line of railway between two distant
towns, an especial regard should be had to intermediate traffic
and population ; and every town, other things being alike,
should approximate to the line of railway in the direct ratio of
its public importance.
6. A turnpike road should on no account whatever be per-
mitted to be crossed with a railroad on a level.
7. Long tracts of low flat country should be avoided as un-
favourable to railways, not only on account of their dampness
and interruptions to the good working of the trains, but more
particularly if crossed by navigable rivers or canals, as gene-
rally more expensive, less convenient, and less safe for a rail-
road than a country gently undulating.
8. Whenever a rail-road has to cross a navigable river, it is
always advisable to do it at such an elevation as to avoid a
swivel bridge.
9. Tunnels ought to be especially avoided.

STEEPLE CHASE AT SHELFANGER.

This little entertaining affair came off with great eclat on
Saturday last, at Shelfanger, on a bet of 10 sove. between
Shildrake Smith, Esq., of Frenze• Hall, and Mr. Green, of
sporting notoriety—Moonraker, a brown horse, the property
of the former, and Pioneer, a grey horse, the property of the
latter gentleman. The distance (three miles) was well con-
tested, over a heavy country, rendered more so by the late
heavy storms, intersected by numerous fences of those small
inclosures into which the confines of the two counties of Nor-
folk and Suffolk are subdivided. It was nobly won by. Moon-
raker, with his utmost exertions, but the greatest difficulty,
before a large assemblage of the sporting gentlemen from
every part of the surrounding neighbourhood, and to whom it
afforded general satisfaction.

and subsequently a rule nisi for setting aside that rule was,

Rule made absolute.

EXCHEQUER COURT-SATURDAY.

EDWARDS V. WILLAMS.

This was an action for breach of promise of marriage
brought by the plaintiff, the daughter of a farmer in South
Wales, against the defendant, a Dissenting Minister. It
was tried at the last Assizes at Anglesey, before Mr. Baron
IJI:RNEY, when a verdict was passed for the defendant.

Mr. .TERvis last term obtained a rule nisi to set this ver-
dict aside and proceed to a new trial, on the grounds of its
having passed contrary to the evidence and the charge of
the Learned Judge who presided.
Mr. Baron GURNEY having read his notes of the trial,
Mr. ALEXANDER this day showed cause.
Mr. JERvIs, in support of the rule, was stopped by the
court.
t .Mr. Baron GURNEY said that during the progress of the
entertained a very strong suspicion that the jury dui
t.
clearly comprehend the precise nature of the question
which they had to try. He was not sure also that the jury
4
tiderstood what he was saying to them.
Mr. Baron ALDERSON—That is highly possible. I re-
tVect once being in the act of addressing a jury in South
V'les at considerable length, when I began to entertain an
I);:ession that they did not understand what I was saying
them. I accordingly requested that all those who under-
ti -°(.4 English should stand up in the box, and only one of
kiiurY stood up.
CHILToN—And yet your Lordship may recollect
ttiat that same jury had succeeded in unravelling a most in-
dineate and complicated question of account in an extraor-
pand really astonishing manner.
bici!• Baron ALDERSON—Most extraordinary and asto-
indeed, to me at least ; even with the assistance of
ZY strong charge.
tli:t.r• Baron PARKE—There can be no doubt but that
11-, Jury mistook the action for an action of seduction.
7Pe must be a new trial, but upon payment of costs.-

Mr. MiNsHuLL said five assaults had been proved against
Bridges, and be should fine him forty shillings for each ;
and with respect to Wright, he should fine him 5/. for strik-
ing the police constable and obstructing him in the execu-
tion of his duty.

POST-OFFICE.

The following are the resolutions to be moved for by Mr.
Wallace to-morrow evening :-
1. That it is the opinion of this House, that the recommen-
dations contained in the Fourth Report of the Commissioners
appointed to inquire into the management of the Post-office,
presented to this House by command of his Majesty, should be
taken into immediate consideration.
2. That it has been satisfactorily established by evidence
adduced before the present Commission, and also before the
several Committees and Commissions of Inquiry which have
Preceded it, that the tendency of the present system of ma-
nagement in the Post-office, is, to place the important duties
and powers, both of control and execution, in a subordinate
office, namely, that of the Secretary ; and it is the opinion of
this House, that a great public department, so constituted, is
neither proper nor satisfactory, and ought to be amended im-
mediately.
3. That the recommendations contained in the aforesaid
Fourth Report, and in the Reports of the various Committees
and Commissions which have preceded it, in the years 1788,
1797, 1809, 1829, and 1830, on the management of the Post-
office department, evidently prove that the office of Post-
master-General is wholly inadequate to a careful and vigilant
superintendence of the many important duties imposed on that
functionary ; and therefore it is the opinion of this House, in
accordance with all these recommendations, that a Board of
Commissioners should be substituted for the office of Post-
master-General.
4. That the Sixth Report of the Commissioners appointed
to inquire into the management of the Post-office, also pre-
sented to this House by command of his Majesty, demands the
immediate attention of his Majesty's Government.
5. That by the said Sixth Report, which specially relates to
the Steam Packet Establishments of the Post-office, it appears
that very gross mismanagement, neglect, and waste, have
taken place in that department, which imperatively requires
the gravest censure of this House, and its prompt and effec-
tual interference.

BAIL COURT.-SATURDAY.

REX V. PARTRIDGE.

Mr. ERLg moved for a writ of quo warrant°, calling
Ititi Mr. James Partridge to show cause why he filled the
Mice of town clerk of the borough of Tiverton. He ap-
Plied on behalf of Mr. Hellings and ten other persons,
members of the Town-council of the borough. The writ
Was applied for on the ground of an undue election, which
took place on the 23d of May.
Mr. Justice COLERIDGE—Hoar was the election con-
ducted ?
Mr. ERLE—The members present wrote the name of
the person for whom they intended to vote on a piece of
Paper, which was folded up, and then put into a hat, and
the Mayor was appointed to draw them out, when he stated
the result to be in favour of Mr. Partridge. The dis-
covery was not made until some time after that ten had
voted for Mr. Hellings, Under these circumstances he
(Mr. Erle) trusted sufficient had been shown to call upon
Mr. Partridge to show cause to prove he had a majority
0f votes.
Mr. Justice COLERIDGE—Take your rule.

MACKEREL.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
Sir,—The season for mackerel, Viz., when they are in the
greatest perfection, is from about the 9th or 10th of June
until the end of the month, when they are fat and full-
roed. To boil them properly, they ought not to be boiled
less time than an hour and a half to two hours, in plenty
of water, with a little salt in it, when they will be found a
very delicious dish.
The catch of mackerel is within a few days a little im-
proved at this place—boats taking from three to six hun-
dred per night.
They were first allowed to be cried through the City of
London, on a Sunday, in 1698, and the practice prevails
at the present time. In May, 1807, the first Brighton
boat of mackerel sold at Billingsgate for 40 guineas per
hundred (120)-7s. each ; the next boat's cargo produced
but 13 guineas. In 1808, at Dover, they were sold sixty
for a shilling. On June 16th, 1825, at Yarmouth, there
were delivered and sold by Mr. John Shelly Clark, out of
55 boats, 1,4144 hundred, 132 to the hundred, or 186,481
mackerel, caught the previous night, and sold to different
buyers—the amount of sale being nearly 1,0001. sterling ;
the quantity caught by the highest boat was 64 hundred, and
the lowest 21 hundred, of 132.
