LAW STUDENTS' PETITION.

The LORD CHANCELLOR had another petition on
the same subject to present from the Students at Law, and
those practising under the bar in the Four Inns of Court,
praying that their Lordships would take the measure
into their favourable consideration. The petition was
very numerously signed ; and the gentlemen who signed it
were generally studious men, and little concerned in the
ordinary business of the world.
SCOTCH UNIVERSITIES.

The Earl of lIADDINGTON, adverting to the cir-
cumstance that a plan of Reform was under consideration
in the other House, by which some additional Members of
Parliament were to be given to Slgland, observed, that it
might he well worth while to consider whether it would
not be expedient to give the return of a Member of Par-
liament to each of the two principal Scotch Universities.
It was known that the Scotch Universities had lately been
visited by a Royal Commission to examine into their state
and situation, and this might facilitate the means of pro-
curing that information which might be necessary to en-
able them to come to a sound conclusion of the question.
lie did consider it due to these learned bodies to consider
whether it might be proper, so far, to extend the elective
franchise to them, In order to bring before their Lord-
ships the information to which he alluded, he moved that
an humble address be presented to his Majesty, praying
that his Majesty would be pleased to be caused to be laid on
the table of this House an account of the number of gra-
duates who had taken the degree of Doctor of Divinity,
Law, or Medicine, or the degree of Master of Arts, in
the University of Edinburgh, from 1800 to 1830, both
inclusive. A similar motion for Glasgow,
The Earl of ROSEBERY, although it was not usual
to second motions in that House, was yet anxious to ex-
press his cordial approbation of the motion of his Noble
Friend, and of the object for which it was made.

The Bishop of LONDON wished that a distinction
should be made between the resident and the non•resi-
dent graduates.

The Earl of lIA_DDINGTON—That was hardly pos-
sible, for the Sc,,itch students did net reside within the walls
of their several universities and colleges.
Lord TENTERDEN observed, that it was highly de-
sirable that the distinction should he male, for it often
happened that persons in very inferior grades in the pro-
fession of medicine, and perhaps in other professions, went
to these northern universities, and, without any residence
or attendance at lectures, or, at least, after a very short
Tesirionep and attendance, got themselves made Doctors.
The Earl of HADDLNGTON was not aware that there
would be any difficulty in pointing out the amount of at-
tendance on lecture given by the several persons who gra-
duated during the period mentioned, although it would be
impossible to make the distinctions required by the Right
Reverend Prelate.

Lord WYNFORD thought that the amount of attend-
ance ought, at le•.et, to be distinctly specified ; and
The Earl n' HADDINGTON withdrew his motion, in
order to p.:t it in a proper shape.

HASTINGS.

A meeting was got up hastily on Thursday, on the subject of
the Ministerial Reform measure introduced by Lord J. Russell.
Mr. Baker Writ tailed to the Chair: Several animated speeches
were deliverea ; and amblig others, by Colonel Evans • wl7o
came from London purposely for the occaSion. The deeting
resulted in an address to the king, declaring their determination
of standing by his throne and the Ministers in carrying into
effect aproject, calculated to destroy the noxious influence of the
boroughtndiigers; and restoring to the peOple their due influence
In Parliainent. The AddreSs has reteived upwards of 1,000
signatures.
With the exception of the old corporated body, the whole
town is in favour of the proposed new state of things. We ob-
serve that the old party are quite in a state of stupor. The pa-
tron, Mr. Milward, fled soon after the Reformers first attempted
the attack on his dearly beloved borough ; and we hear that he
remains sick at Boulogne.

ATEWPORT, ISLE OF WIGHT.
The friends of Reform, highly pleMed at the efficient measure
brought forward by Lord John Russell, and fearing that the ma.
chinations of those who have long lived in rotten row," and
who have been the means in a great measure, of causing the
enormous; the appalling sum of seven hundred millions of
politic!! Id be spent by the GoVernment during the reign of
George 111., called a meeting, ofi Priday evening; at the Green
Dragon Hotel, for the purpose of considering the propriety of
drawing up a petition to the Commons House, the object of
which should be to express their gratitude to his Majesty's Mi-
nisters for the just and efficient Measure they had brought for.
ward; and to r,surb them of their firili kippOrt4 and to pray that
the same may be passed into a law. The agsetribly at the ]iiagtdi
was both numerous and respectable. Mr. Robert Buckell having
been called to the chair, it was resolved to petition the Howe,
and a committee was appointed, who withdrew to prepare th,
form. Despite the inclemency of the weather, 1,428 signatures
were affixed. Many persons belonging to Cowes, Ryde, Brading,
and Woottemwere in the number. On the following day it was
forwaided to Mr: Hume; ibt :presentation to the -Hotise, We
ne-eil not add that Mr. Ituir.e, being diligent in his business as
an M.P., upright in his conduct, and true to the best interests
and stability of the Constitution, enjoys the confidence of this
part of the country.
A public meeting is to be called as early in the present week as
possible, by the truest friends of their country, the Refonners,
to pats resolutions on which to found an address to his Majesty
and the !joo:.e of LOrde, praying that the measure of Reform,
now before tile libtiV blay lie pasted into a law.

LONDON,
TUESDAY EVENING, JANUARY 4, 1831.

The American PRESIDENT'S speech to Con-
gress is at the present crisis unusually important•
As regards the character of its policy, it is on
the whole satisfactory to the commercial interests
of Great Britain, and notices the arrangements
which have been made with the English Cabinet,
in relation to the trade between the United States
and our own West Indian and North American
colonies, which promise the most favourable re-
sults to both parties. The PRESIDENT adds, that
these negociations have been from first to last
characterized by the most frank and friendly
spirit on the part of England, and con-
cluded in a manner strongly indicative of her
sincere desire to cultivate the most amiable
relations with the United States. But by far
the most interesting portion of this State do-
cument is that which alludes to the late revo-
lution in France. The PRESIDENT here speaks
the sense of an enterprising and intelligent na-
tion, in language worthy the most exalted age
of freedom. There is no hesitation—no jea-
lousy—no paltry compromise between enthusiasm
on the one hand, and expediency on the other.
In this respect the New World reads a fine
moral lesson to the Old, and in her profession,
not less than in her practice, presents a silent,
but a cutting contrast to the insidious conduct
of that Government, which avowing its ap-
probation of the proceedings of the French
Revolution, yet during its fortunately brief ca-
reer made every effort to neutralize their good
effects. An American Premier has dared to
thunder forth what an English one scarcely ven-
tured to whisper. General JACKSON has boldly
proclaimed his cordial approbation of the de-
thronement of CHARLES X. as " an event au-
spicious to the dearest interests of mankind ;"
while the Duke of WELLINGTON has timidly
pronounced it " unfortunate!" Drum horum,
mauls, accipe. We know which of the two
Premiers we most respect for sagacity.

We have received files of New York Papers
to the 9th December. It will be seen from the
following Stock List of the Bth December, thlt
United States Bank Stock had fallen from 1301
to 127 i in the course of a few days. Some let-
ters we have seen attribute this fall to an alarm
among the Proprietors that the PRESIDENT'S
Message would take some unfavourable notice of
that species of Stock :

2,300 tees. There has keen little done today; but
prices of all descriptions are firm. Coffee is also in de-
mand, at steady prices.
The market for Leeward BUM is firm, and Jamaicas
are more sought atter. The delivery last week, from the
West India Docks, was 330 puncheons, of which nearly
290 was for home use. The stock is now about 25,000
puncheons, and 2,271 hhd..

year was 11,05 S hhds. and in 1829, 3,035 hhds.

SECOND AND CHEAPER EDITION.

THE HEIRESS OF BRUGES
A TALE.

By THOMAS COLLEY (;RATTAN, Esq.
Author of " High-ways and By-ways," " Traits of
Travel," &e.

" A love story, of most romantic interest, is here ably
wrought into the stirring history of the most energetic
struggle ever made against bigotry and tyranny—that of
the Low Countries against their Spanish oppressors.
Many of the characters are especially well drawn, the he-
roine is a very sweet creature;. and her father with his
proud humility, yet secret consciousness of wealth and
power, is au excellent and true picture—whose air of
ality seems to vouch for ibs being a likeness. The hero
himself is, what the term implies, the principal actor in
his own pages; and there are few readers who will not be
carried along by the fortunes of the brave de Bassenveldt."

THE MEETING.

-
In order that the immense multitude who were
collected on the Mall should have an opportunity of
hearing the different speakers, the chair was placed
on the steps of Mr. James McCann's house, and the
door being opened, accommodation was made for
those who had to move and second the resolutions.
It was proposed, and carried unanimously, that
N. WHITWORTH, E4q., should take the Chair.

Mr. Peter Verdun was appointed to act as
secretary.
Mr. WHITWORTH rose amid loud cheers. He felt,
he said, deeply obliged for the honour that had been
conferred upon him by appointing him to preside as
chairman at so great and important a meeting. It
sheaved that the people knew their rights, and were
determined to maintain them—in order that Irish-
men might procure their rights, they should take
what, in his opinion, was the only way to procure
them, and tliSt was, to look. for a Radical Reform
in the Commons House of Parliament.—(Hear.)—
Several resolutions were then proposed and
seconded by different gentlemen, inhabitants of the

town.
D:. DONEGAN moved a resolution, censuring the
establishment of septennial Parliaments. At pre-
seat the taxation exceeded any thing ever known in
the world.—(Hear and cheers.)
A petition, praying for radical Reform and vote
by ballot, was then proposed, and carried unani•
mously.
The Rev. Mr. CORCORAN said, he would use the
liberty of a Priest, and call upon the King to pro-
tect all classes of his people, and he would be listened
to, because their gracious Monarch was a good and
generous Sovereign.—(Hear.) Why was not
Drogheda a great shipping town, and filled with
riches and with trade? Because they had not a
voice in Parliament, and a native Legislature.—
(Loud cheers.) It was for that reason Liverpool,
though so inferior in situation, was so much more
prosperous. The Rev. Gentleman concluded amid
marked approbation from all parts of the meeting,
by proposing a resolution in favour of the vote by
ballot.
A petition against corporation abuses was unani-
mously adopted.
Mr. M. O'CoNNELL, in a most powerful and able
speech, advocated the necessity of Reform, and

dwelt on the abuses which exist in all corporations,'
and among these he was not forgetful of Drogheda.
Mr. J. A. CURRAN next addressed the meeting,
and was received with loud cheers.
Mr. STEELE then addressed the meeting, and con-
cluded his speech by expressing a hope that they
could all retire home peaceably, having first given
three cheers for Daniel O'Connell and a repeal of
the Union—three cheers for the Catholic Primate,
Dr. Curtis, and three cheers for the Orangemen of
Ireland.
Mr. Steele's wishes were at once complied with,
and in a few minutes afterwards the town. was com-
pletely cleared of the thousands of strangers with
which it had been filled.

MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

LONDON MARKETS.
(From the London New Price Current of yesterday.)

SUGAR.—The demand for Aluscovades has been general,
and rather extensive ; the sales are estimated at 3,200
!Ms. and trs. ; the prices are a shade higher. The St.
Lucia Sugars at public sale this day went off steadily at
market prices, 425. 6d. a 48s. 6d. In the Refined trade
there is little alteration this week. This afternoon there
is scarcely any alteration to notice ; the fine descriptions
entitled to the double-refined being the only sorts for
which there is any briskness in the demand, and for these
offers continue to be made for delivery a month hence, the
refiners having already sold nearly all they can deliver
previous to that time, and 325. Gd. is now generally de-
manded. At the close of the day more purchases are re-
ported, but all at very low prices. Lumps reported at 58s.

FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE.
London, England, 1831-12-10

COURT OF CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.

DUKE OF ST. ALBANS V. THE DUCHESS OF ST. ALBANS.
The Loan CHANCELLOR was attended on the bench
this morning by their Honours the MASTER of the ROLLS
and VicE•CHANCELLOR, whose assistance his Lordship had
called in to enable him the more satisfactory to dispose of
a point of practice, appointed to be argued this morning
in this case. Sir Edward Sugden and Mr. Romilly were
on the one side, Mr. Pepys and another gentleman on the
other. Sir Edward Sugden stated that the question was
whether there could be what was called a second appeal
before the Lord Chancellor. The present case was first
heard before the Master of the Rolls while Vice-Chancellor.
From his Honour's decision there was an appeal by the
different parties to Lord Eldon. Lord Eldon heard the
arguments at great length, but came to no decision hefi,re
he retired from office. The case was again discussed very
fully upon an appeal from both the parties before Lord
Lyndhurst, who confirmed the decision of the Court below.
The case was now attempted to be brought forward upon
a second appeal, by one of the parties, the other party
having altogether abandoned his objection to the decision
of his Honour. The simple inquiry therefore now was,
whether as regarded the jurisdiction of the Court, as it
was at present exercised, the Lord Chancellor could hear,
or rather re-bear, cr hear for a second time, that which
had already been disposed of, upon an appeal by the Lord
Chancellor. It was contended on Sir Edward Sugden's
side that the Court had no jurisdiction to hear the case
again ; on the contrary it wis agreed that it was entirely
discretionary on the part of the Court whether the suitor
ought to be shut out from haviug the benefit of a second
Lord Chancellor's judgment or not, and upon a review of
all the circumstances, that this was such a case as to
entitle the parties to have their• appeal heard: The ques-
tion was not disposed of when we left the Court.

MATT ON-GARDEN.

Yesterday Mr. List, the inspector of E division
of Police, had a private interview with the Magis-
trate, to communicate a most extraordinary circum-
stance, relative to which we have obtained the fol-
lowing particulars—
It appears that yesterday afternoon, some brick-
layers were employed repairing the roof of a house
in the neighbourhood of Burton.creseent, when one

of them was astonished at finding a human hand.
They immediately informed the inmates of t!te house
of the discovery, but they could not account for its
being there. The man who found the hand took
it home. The affair excited a peculiar sensation
in the neighbourhood, and information soon reached
the station-house, when Inspector List immediately
proceeded to make inquiry as to the cause of its
being there, but he could not ascertain. The people
of the house were quite ignorant of it, and appeared
exceedingly alarmed on being told of the circum-
stauce. A report was soon spread that somebody
had been murdered, and crowds of persons assembled
round the house in the course of the day.
Mr. List here produced the hand, which appeared
to be that cf a female. It was brown and sun-burnt,
and the flesh completely dried up, and seemed to
have been cut off at the wrist.

The Magistrate asked whether the place had been
examined, and received for answer that nothing else
belonging to the human form was discovered. The
persons who now kept the premises had been there for
some time, and seemed to be respectable individuals.
The Magistrate thought it a most extraordinary
affair, and directed Mr. List to keep possession of
the hand, and make every possible inquiry as to its
being there, which he promised to do, and left the
office.

POLAND.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

OPENING OF THE NEW CONSTITUTIONAL GOVERN-
MENT OF POLAND BY AN UKASE.

Stn,—The French Journal (des Debuts) in its zeal to
clear the Autocrat of Russia of all' the accusations which
he drew on himself by the blind arrogance of his character,
supports its tirades in praise of that Prince sipOn the
ukase, which is to open the new career of the restoration
of his Constitutional Government in Poland. Ever)
word of that act affects the system of the charter gua-
rantee(' the Poles by the Congress of Vienna, of which the
authors boast so much as the master-piece of their efforts
for that ill-fated country. That wretched charter directs
'that none but a Pole can exercise the authority of a
'magistrate, or sit in judgment over their countrymen.
The ukase introduces one-half of its members, Russians
The charter guarantees the exclusive exercise of the Polish
language; whereas the ukase orders all public documents
to be written in the Russian dialect. But why should
we dwell on the details. The charter guarantees the
country against all ukases, and yet it is an ukase which
opens the reign of that same charter referred to by the
European Governments, as the only boon to which the
Polish patriotism can presume to aspire. Let 'us cast a
glance on that unhappy country since the fall of Wars (w.
Many thousands of its most valuable citizens ate already
sent to expire in Siberia ; in the capital itself up-
wards of
.1,200 persons are thrown into dungeons; and
still there are persons who have the weakness to be-
lieve the treacherous assertions, that negotiations are
pending between Poland and Russia, as well as between
Russia and other Cibinets of Europe. Is it, after that
charter has been violated—Poland made a Russian province,
and the crime already consummated, that the friends a
Poland will have acquired the right to ask their Cabinet-
the cause of the evil, without alas being able to remedy it?
They dare miscall treaties, a state of things from which
barbarity itself would shrink with horror. A Minis.e(
sprung up from the revolution of July, 1830, boasts et
having succeeded in securing for Poland her nati.nality.
whilst there are already several agents of the nation.
Polish Government, arrested not only in Prussia, but
Austria, and even Saxony. No, there is no value tot t

Extract of a letter from Barbadoes, dated Sept. 4:—" No

again a description of the desolation and misery which surround

Our kind-hearted neighbours in the colonies and islands have
literally inundated us with donations for the sutferors, chiefly of
flour, rice, meal, and provisions: also some money for the im.
mediate re'iel of the distressed. The canes are looking better,
and will be quite saved it is thought."

The public are still anxiously waiting to be informed of the

We have a late arrival from Madras., but no Papers have as yet
been received.
