THE GOLDEN ~ SUN."

We differ from The Sun in politics, but we have never
been unwilling witnesses of the enterprise of its Proprietor,
nor reluctant recorders of its success. The Number issued
on the evening of the Coronation, besides ample details of
the Procession and of part of the Ceremonial, contains a
beautiful Medallion likeness of her Majesty, and presents
the reader with a novelty in Newspaper publication—twelve
of its columns printed in Gold letters. The execution of the
Medallion is exquisite, and the style of the printing is cre-
ditable to all engaged in it. To enable the Proprietor to
accomplish this unrivalled effort of art and industry, re-
quired, we are told, " the united labour of three large esta-
blishments, comprising between two and three hundred
persons." The result is, the production of a specimen of
Newspaper printing such as has, not only never been
equalled, but never been attempted, by any other journalist.
The demands for the Paper amounted to nearly a quarter
of a million !—Cork Advertiser.
The proprietors of this spirited Journal, The Sun, have
taken the lead of all other newspapers, having beautifully
printed in gold two of its pages, containing an account of
the Coronation, accompanied by such a medallion of the
Queen as we never saw for excellency in a newspaper be-
fore.—Derby Reporter.

ROLLS' COURT.-(THIS DAY.)

TLRLETON V. R•RNES.-JUDE•NENT.

The MASTER of the ROLLS gave judgement in this case, which was
argued on a plea filed by the defendant, alleging that another bill in the
same matter was pending against him in the Court of Exchequer. His
Lordship said the usual course, on such a plea being filed, was for the
plaintiff to obtain an order, directing the Master to inquire whether the
two suits were in the same matter. If the plaintiff took no such step,
the defendant was, after the lapse of one month, entitled to an order to
dismiss the bill. On the other hand, if the plaintiff, declining to abideby
the usual reference, thought fit to set down the plea for argument, he was
at liberty to do so ;. but by so doing he was held to admit the fact that
the former suit on the same matter was pending, and the plea was to be
allowed, unless it was defective in point of form. In this case the
plea was set down by the plaintiff; and the question raised was whe-
ther the allowance of the plea in the Court of Exchequer (which was
referred to in the present plea), put an end to the suit there, or operated
as a dismissal of the Bill. His Lordship had made some inquiry
with regard to the practice in the Court of Exchequer, and
the result was that with some exceptions as to costs, the prac-
tice of that Court and the Court of Chancery in cases of that
nature was substantially alike. On the allowance of such a
plea in the Court of Exchequer, the defendant obtained 30s. costs ; but
the effect was not to dismiss the bill or to put an end to the suit. If the
case were such as that the defect of the plea could not be avoided by
amendment of the bill, the allowance of the plea would be an effectual
bar to the further progress of the suit; but the bill was not thereby dis-
missed. To dismiss the Bill and give the defendant the costs of the suit
an order must be obtained for the purpose, and that might be on the ap-
plication of the defendant or of the plaintiff. Unless such order was ob-
tained, the plaintiff was not at liberty to commence a new suit against
the defendant on the same matter. The suit, therefore, after the allow-
ance of the plea, was still to be considered as a suit depending, and there
was no inconsistency in the present plea. There were cases in which
when it appeared the progress of the suit, or the further prose-
cution of the suit, by him for the purpose fur which it was
instituted had been effectually barred, it had been said metaphorically
that the case was out of Court. This had been said where the single
step wanting to dismiss the bill was an order for the purpose. In such
cases it appeared to his Lordship, till such an order was obtained, the
suit was still pending, and under those circumstances, the present plea
must be allowed.

A private letter received, though not of a later date than previously,
from Montreal, states that much uneasiness, and even alarm, prevailed
there in regard to the unsettled state of the country. The destruction
of the Sir Robert Peel steamer, on the American Waters, has for the
first time raised the question of a claim for damages by the British
Government upon the United States.

The operations in the various Funds still continue in the same lan.
guid state as for many days past.

THE QUEEN'S CHEMISE.—Wehave much plea-
sure in recommending a visit to the Great Hall of the Andersonlan
University, to inspect the workmanship of Mr. David Anderson—a
Chemise for the Queen, wrought in the loom without a seam.—
Glasgow Chronicle.

Yesterday morning a young man, named Richard
Swainton, 24 years of age, a tailor, residing in Prince's.street, Lambeth,
was bathing in the Thames between Vauxhall and Westminster-
bridges, when he suddenly disappeared, and did not rise again. It is
supposed that he was seized with the cramp.
A few days ago, one of a pair of blackbirds, which
have nestled in a garden near Dalblair House for some years past, was
caught and killed by a cat, the property of a neighbouring cottager.
Deep was the grief of its surviving mate--the male, we believe--
which sat moping on a tree close by the fatal spot for several days.
" Sweet is revenge," says the poet, and so thought the blackbird, as the
issue demonstrates for having discovered baudrons asleep in the sun
under the tree on Sabbath last, " the better day, the better deed," he
descended like the mountain eagle, and at one peck fairly deprived the
feline marauder of one of her eyes.—Ayr Observer.

EARLY CROP.—A few stalks of barley, in full ear,
were sent to our office yesterday from the farm of Nether Dalnotter, near
Erskine Ferry. The field in which they were grown is about two acres
in extent, and shows a beautiful crop. It may be worthy of remark,
that forty years have not elapsed since the field in question was the site
of one of the then few malleable ironworks in Scotland, not a vestige of
which now remains, if we except a row of houses on the west side of it,
built for the workmen at Dalnotter Forge. Sic transit gloria mundi !
Glasgow Courier.

Yesterday morning, between eight and nine o'clock,
a girl about ten years of age, the (laughter of James Gregory, carpenter,
residing in George street, Lambeth, in crossing the Westminster-road,
was knocked down by a butcher's cart, which was driven at a most
furious rate, and the wheel passed over her thighs, one of which was
fractured. She was directly taken to a surgeon, who pronounced im-
mediate amputation to be necessary. Every effort was made to dis.
cover to whom the cart belonged, but the rate it was driven at rendered
it impossible.

TEETOTALISM.—The principles of the Total Ab-
stinence Society appear to have been making greater pro:;ress in Glasgow
of late than seems to be generally supposed. We learn that the en-
rolled adherents in Glasgow now amount to from 7,000 to 8,000 ; and,
judging from the frequency of their meetings, the ardour with which
they promote their principles, and the zeal they display in bringing
them before the community, are enthusiastic and unremitting.—
Glasgow Courier.

A cow belonging to Mr. David Jackson, of Routem
Syke, in Arlecdon, gave birth to a calf on Tuesday last with two heads
and two necks, the union of the necks being close to the Moulder. In
all other respects the formation was single. It was nearly full grown,
but life was entirely extinct when it was calved.

LITERATURE.

FOREIGN QUARTERLY REVIEW.
No. XLIL
Black and Armstrong, London, 1838.

There are many interesting articles in this Number, and
not the least so, is the essay on the " Religious Literature
of Germany," in which we fancy we can detect the pen of
Mr. Carlyle. The essay in question is a notice of Jui g
Stilling's theological speculations, and gives the Reviewer
an opportunity of discussing the state of religious feeling
at present existing in Germany, and of introducing mar y
subtle, metaphysical remarks of his own. " Queen Hor-
tense," is a review of a flimsy, gossiping book, that has
lately come out in Paris, professing to be a Memoir of Jo-
sephine's royal Daughter, and to give authentic anecdotes
of the different branches of the Imperial family of Napo-
leon. The review of this book contains but little origi-
nal observation, and is chiefly remarkable for the number,
variety, and amusing character of the extracts with
which it furnishes us. The following may serve as a
specimen :—" At the time of the marriage of the Emperor
Jerome with the Princess of Wirtemberg, Kings stoad
waiting in the anti-chambers of the Tuileries, which caused
M. de Montesquiou to say to the Emperor, when the latter
reproached him, generally so punctual, for being ten minutes
behind his time, What was Ito do, Sire ? In crossing the
apartment 1 was stopped by a crowd of Kings, who all asked
after your Majesty's health.'" Queen Hortense, who, it
may be remembered, was Napoleon's daughter-in-law, and
possessed a great share of his confidence, is, we believe, still
living ; by all accounts she is an amiable lady, exemplary
in all the relations of life, and is the only remaining child of
the once celebrated Josephine. Her character is exhibileJ
to great advantage in the passages which the Reviewer has
selected for extract. " Chinese and Egyptian Writing "
is an wtempt to throw some sort of light on a puzzling and
complex theme. Antiquaries and philologists will read it
with attention, but the generality, we suspect, will be apt
to pass it by with indifference. In the notice of Grimn.'s
" German Mythology" there are many curious anecdotes
illustrative of sorcery and witchcraft, which, the la'te r
especially, were scarcely two centuries since the bug-bears
of our sapient ancestors. The review of Chateaubriand's
last publication, entitled the " Congress of Verona" does
justice to the merits of an entertaining, but assuredly a
most conceited and egotistical work, whose author evidentiy
imagines that he is the profoundest statesman of his age.
Chateaubriand was for a long time the rival of Can-
ning ; but being generally foiled by him in his political
manoeuvres, bore him no great good will, though to the
last moment of the English Premier's existence, his rival
of France expressed for him the warmest friendship. Wo
subjoin an anecdote respecting the former, as we do not
happen to have met with it before :—" When Canning was
at Christchurch, it was on some public occasion his duty to
pronounce an oration in praise of the founder and benefac-
tors of the College or University. By appointment or
choice, his hero was Daniel Finch, Earl of Nottingham.
Our recollection of this youthful composition enables us to
pronounce it full of all the merits which afterwards charac-
terized his speeches ; and it was in one sense a panegyrics
upon the memory of the pious founder, becaused it proved in
forcible terms that the profligacy of Nottingham was :lot
quite so eminent as that of Sunderland, and of other s'eates-
men of his lime, whose respective demerits were marked
by epithets appropriate and severe. The big-wigs were
shocked and offended, or pretended to be so; however,
young Canning did not lose his studentship." In the
article on " Dutch Literature," we find an analysis of the
most successful productions of some of the modern authors
of Holland. The land of dykes and fogs—so long conei-
sidered a Breotia in point of literature, has, it seems, pro-
duced within the last few years more than one poet who is
really entitled that honourable appellation. The most
popular of the tuneful fraternity is a Dutch merchant, by
name Van der Hoop, who has recently penned a tragedy,
written in Alexandrine couplets ! The Reviewer does not
favour U 3 with specimens, but we take for granted it must
be a curiosity. " French Naval Romances" gives soma
judicious criticisms of Marryat and Cooper, and then enters
into particulars respecting a naval novel, written by M.
Eugene Sue, a popular French author, who, judging from
the extracts here made from his work, deserves all his po-
pularity. The remaining articles in the Number aro of a
very ordinary character.

Yesterday Lord Brougham laid the foundation stone
of a school at Chase-side, Enfield, upon the British and Foreign system.
At four o'clock his Lordship arrived at the spot, and was greeted with
the cheers of between 600 and 700 persons, who were present to view
the ceremony. The proceedings of the day were opened by a prayer
from the Rev, S A. Davies, when, the usual coins and an inscription
having been deposited, a stone, weighing four hundred weight, was
lowered to the spot, and neatly cemented by his Lordship. The whose
having been completed, Lord Brougham addressed the assembly, expa-
tiating on the advantages of an early education, and urging upon parents
and heads of families the necessity for supporting institutions having
for their object the enlightenment of the human race. At the conclu-
sion of the proceedings Lord Brougham, accompanied by about 60 of
the most influential gentlemen, sat down to an excellent dinner, which
had been provided at the King's Head Assembly Rooms, Enfield town,
over which his Lordship presided,
CORONATION HA T.—We have been informed
that Carl King, the celebrated ladies hat.maker, has in preparation and
nearly finished, a hat made of remarkably fine Tuscan braid, of which
article he is the only proprietor, to be sent as a present to England's
youthful Queen. We take pleasure in noticing the enterprise of Mr,
King; it will prove to the Londoners that we are not idle in improving
that important article of female attire. It is to be sent by the Great
Western on her next trip, and will be for a few days, at each of Mr.
King's stores, for the inspection of the public.--New York Sunday News
of June 10.

THE EMPEROR ALEXANDER.—There was some-
times a graceful gallantry in his manner, while in Paris, which ingra-
tiated him in the favour of the fair sex. When visiting a lunatic hos-
pital he asked one of the female patients whether there were many women
in the establishment who had gone mad for love. "We have very few
yet," replied the lunatic, "but it is to be feared that their numbers
will be greatly augmented by your Majesty's visit to Paris." One of
Napoleon's grand dignitaries said to the Czar, " Your arrival, Sire, has
been long and anxiously wished for here."---" I should have come sooner,"
replied Alexander, " had not French valour prevented me." It is cer-
tain that, when he crossed the Rhine, he regretted that he could not
retire in peace to the bosom of his family.—Chateaubriand's Memoirs of
His Otos Time.
