FOR COUGHS.
PECTORAL ESSENCE OF COLTSFOOT.

THE herb Coltafoot has long been distin-
guished for its excellent properties in the cure of
Coughs, and other Pulmonary Complaints; and this Es-
sence has, in the course of a long practice, been found the
most safe and effectual remedy for Coughs, and all Disor-
ders of the Lungs. It gently opens the Breast, and im-
mediately gives liberty of breathing, without any danger of
taking cold, and thus it affords great relief in Asthmatic Com-
plaints. It allays the tickling which provokes frequent
coughing, clean.es the small glands, relaxes the fibres, and
thereby enlarges the cavities of the vessels. Thus it will
prevent Consumptions, if taken before the Lungs are
ulcerated. It softens husky and dry Coughs, and heals raw-
ness and soreness of the Chest.

This Pectoral Essence is prepared by James Ryan, Sur-
geon, in Bristol ; and sold in Bottles at 2s. 9d. and 3s. 6d.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.)

COURT OF CHANCERY.

PRACTICE OF MASTERS ATTENDING IN THE COURT AT

ITS SITTING.

When the Loan CHANCELLO;i: took his seat he stated
what had occurred to him on the practice of one or more of
the Masters attending him at the sitting of the Court. He
found it to be the remnant of the old practice of the
Masters actually sitting themselves, which remnant he
considered useless to be kept] alive. He had, there-
fore, intimated to the Masters that he should no
longer require their attendance as they had here.
tofore given it. The only attendance requisite on
their part should be to keep upon the eye of the Court
the fact that they were persons occupying high judicial
situations and entitled to sit on the bench when in Court ;
and for this purpose the Master of the Rolls and Vice-
Chancellor, should continue to take their seats on
the bench on the first day of term, and the Mas-
ters attend in every term, two and two, in rota-
tion, for about half an hour. By this plan each Master
will have to attend only onee in about two years, there
being ten or eleven of them. His Lordship meant to make
inquiry into the practice of the six clerks attending with
the same view, and if he found the same circumstances
attending their appearance in Court, he should dispense
with their attendance in the same way.

The SOLICITOR-GENERAL supposed that his Lordship
intended simply to dispense with the regular attendance of
the Masters without making any order, so AS to alter the
practice?
The LORD CHANCELLOR s.id that was all. He had
mentioned the subject to Lord Henley, who knew the
practice well, and who saw no objection to it.
[Lord Eldon was always exceedingly averse to do any
thing calculated to alter the practice of the Masters attend-
ing at the sitting of the Court. The decrees of reference
of the day go to the Masters in rotation, and they have
been in the habit of attending in rotation—one object being
that they should by their presence be made acquainted
with the facts of the case in which they are to decide
certain points, and another, that they might afford the
Court information on any point of practice that might
seem to be io doubt.]

New York Papers to the 17th of December, and

The Quebec Gazette of the 2d inst. observes, a
failure of about 14 000/. has occurred within the

Quebec, and lumber merchants in Upper Canada. The

SAVANNAH, DEC. S.—ANOTHIIt EXPLOSION.-011
Saturday afternoon, about three o'clock, a tremendous ex-
plosion took place on board the steamer, Andrew Jackson,
when within about three.quarters of a mile from the city,
on her way for Augusta. Such was the force of the ex-
plosion that the boat immediately sunk, and now lies on
the outer edge of the Garden Bank.

belonging to a small occupier in the same parish was
also set on fire the same evening.—Cambridge
Chronicle.
Last Wednesday week, a fire broke out in the
barn of Mr. Francis Fisher, of Tilney, about four
miles from Lynn, containing wheat, beans, and oats,
the whole of which was consumed by the devouring
element, amounting, on a moderate calculation, to
3001. Two individuals, named Robert Allen and
William High, were taken up on suspicion, and the
former confessed that he had accompanied High to
the barn, for the purpose of carrying into effect the
diabolical scheme. He farther stated, that High
was the person who fired the stack of Mr. Neeps.
On Saturday night last, the Bth instant, two large
oat-ricks and one barley-rick, valued together at
500/., were entirely destroyed by fire on the farm
of James John Farquharson, Esq., at Langton.—
Dorset Chronicle.

Monday last, a fire was discovered at Owre
Moigne, in a stable belonging to Mr. Whetham,
and before the progress of the flames could be
stemmed, they extended to an adjoining cottage,
occupied by a man named Sansom. The fire had
obtained such a height before it was discovered, that
it was impossible to save an article of furniture, or
to rescue four fine horses which were in the stable,
and which were unfortunately destroyed. Sansom
had about 30/. in the house in money, all of which
was lost.—lbid.
On Monday last, between five and six o'clock in
the evening, a rick, containing about 70 quarters of
oats, belonging to Mr. J. F. Hart, at Moretown
Poole, in the parish of Great Canford, was disco-
vered to be on fire. Two persons are in custody on
suspicion of having set fire to the same.—lbid.
A gentleman, who arrived in this town from Lon-

Our arrivals this morning are exceeding scanty, conse-
quently we have but little information to communicate at
present. The contents of the Dutch mail, which is ar-
rived, have not as yet transpired, but being due for this
day or two, it is not expected she will bring any later ac-
counts from Poland. .

Consols, which left off yesterday at 82 for the account,
opened at 84 since which they have reached S2l with
little or nothing doing.
We do not hear as yet of an express from Paris, though
it is expected. In the Foreign Market most of the prices
continue as yesterday. 'We this moment hear that an ex-
press from Paris has arrived.

A WALKING COAT.

This figure gives a pretty clear idea of a new sort of walking
or travelling coat, but which we will call a coat.cloak. It is
cut after the manner of a French great coat, except the waist,
which has hip buttons ; the skirts are cut very 11111, and pockets
put under cross flaps, and lined with plaid merino; the fronts,
which are double-breasted, button snugly over the chest, and
down to the waist; the skirts have also about four holes and
b.ttnos, to confine them in front ; the sleeves arr rut very cull,
and have a corresponding round cuff; the collar is square at the
ends, and cut straight at the seam and top. The cape is de-
tached, and cut with two breadths of cloth in width, puckered
into a band at top, which has button-holes to fasten it to the
coat ; it should be lined with the same stuff as the skirts.

MONTHLY REVIEW.

V,Te have read with considerable attention the
leading criticism in this number, on the absurdity
of the arguments of the Millenarians, and more
especially of those advanced by Irving, in proof
of the true spiritual character of his miracles of
the Unknown Tongues—as if any miracle were
requisite to prevail on a woman to talk nonsense,
as if the greater miracle were not rather to make
her hold her tongue ! This review, which is as
elaborate as it is sound and judicious in doctrine,
should be read by all who desire to see quackery
and fanaticism exposed, stark naked, in all their
deformity. The reviewer attributes the fana-
ticism so generally prevalent from the time of the
Reformation to the present day, to the right of
private judgment, so stoutly insisted on by Lu-
thcr, and u,auy other Ecclesiastical Reformers.
How this may be, we know not, but at any rate
the reviewer speaks with caution, and will carry
the judgment of his readers along with him.
This article is one of the best we ever have seen
in the Monthly Review. The remainder are
neither above nor below par.

A WALKING DRESS.

A green walking lapelled coat, without pocket flaps; the hp.
pels are cut the size of the end of the collar at top, which is
square, and the same breadth all round. Trowsers, easy to
shape, to button up in front ; the side seams have a double row
of inch braid; these trowsers are cut about 16 inches at the
knee, and 17 at bottom.
A MORNING DRESS.

This is a most elegant style of a single-breasted great coat ;
the colour is green; buttons, same colour ; collar of velvet plush •
skirts cut full and spreading; pockets in front, with a slash welt,
and one button; edges are single-stitched, a sufficient distance
from the edge, to admit a running of worsted, which is better
than cotton for the purpose.
AN EVENING DRESS. _

This is a dress cOat of a particular cut, and of French taste—
its essentials consist of full and flowing lappels, with collar to
correspond--wide skirts with puckering or fullness, and rather
tight sleeves. The waistcoat has a full rolling collar to curres,
pond, and left open at the chest.

NOVELTIES IN GENTLEMEN'S DRESS.
GREAT COATS.

For every species of garment under this name, except full
dress great coats, the Harrington or Brighton beaver stands
conspicuous : it is of so many degrees of substance, that it is
equally calculated for walking or for the outside place in a
stage-coach or gig ; for the latter, the skirts should be lined
with plaid horse-cloth ; and for the former, with silk or shat_
loon. This article is made of much better wool than formerly,
and some have really a pretension, on account of its superior
quality, to be called superfine. Although his most gracious
Majesty has adopted this particular cloth for his own wear, de_
peed upon it, it is not from any regard for fashion, but from its
own particular qualities as r. warm, light, and comfortable coat-
ing, and most pleasant to the wearer. They are made double
breasted ; pocket under ; rather large flaps; skirts full ; lap,
pels large at top, and collar ends to match. The lappels and
collar are farad with velvet of the same colour—imitation but-
tons are I;es.t for it.

but bad never seen his father receive sny. Sometimes he
had seen his father take up Cicero, when a conversation
ensued between him and Mr. Gall.

On the cross-examination it was proved that the plain-
tiff had come to the defendant's house in consequence of a
cough under which he laboured. Subsequently, he was
frequently not merely prescribed for, but was actually fur-
nished with medicine, which the defendant had to send
out for.

Mr. WILLIAms, for the defendant, contended that there
never was any contract between the parties—that it was
merely a mutual obligation on both sides, that the plain-
tiff should teach the defendant's son in return for his pre-
scription, &c. He hoped for a verdict for the defendant.
The Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages
121. odd.

COMMON PLEAS.-(THIS DAY.)

THOMAS V. THE MARQUIS OF LONDONDERRY.

Jones, who had been retained for the Noble defendant, and
Mr. Serjeant Wilde for the plaintiff, were in Conrt.

WAISTCOATS.

Waistcoats for morning, are of shawl and other warm and
dark patterns : they are made double breasted, with lappets
sewed on and buttoned across the neck. The lappet is cut an
inch wide at bottom and four inches at the top : the same width
across the breast,—therefore the lappel will appear a little round.

Dress waistcoats are universall;, made with rolling eollare,
and either single or double breasted. An under waistcoat is in.
dispensable to a man of fashion.

The authorship of " Cavendish, or the Patri-
cian at Sea," has been at length attributed, wo know not
with what correctness, to a young Nobleman, whose re-
cognised descent is more illustrious than that appertaining
to any subject in this realm for centuries.
On Monday evening, so early as seven o'clock,
a poor woman returning from London, where she had
been to carry home some work, was met near Ebury-
street, Pimlico, by three men respectably dressed ; imme-
diately on passing her they turned round and struck her a
violent blow on the back of her neck. She fell violeutle
and cut her face ; the men then beat her about the bead
and body. Her cry of murder brought a gentleman and
lady to her aid, when the men ran across the field. The
woman was insensible; the lady stayed by her while the
gentleman sought the police. The police took her to a station-
house, where she remained some time insensible; on coming
to, she found herself in a dark atone floored room, in which a
young lad was thrust; she found, by the boy, that she
was in a station-house; she, after some exertion, obtained
attention from the policemen, who were quietly sitting
about a cheerful fire. She was anxious to get home, and,
scarcely recovered to sensibility, they let her pass out.
She arrived home at Chelsea about twelve o'clock. I
must remark that it was bad enough that a person should
be knocked down, and nearly murdered, not very far from
' a police station, without receiving any aid : but when
after such treatment, to he thrust into the dark hole of the
place, instead of being placed by the fire, and assistance
rendered, is most disgraceful and inhuman. A. 14.

METROPOLITAN.

Decidedly one of the most improving publi-
cations of the day, written without exaggeration
or an undue eye to effect, but solely to please
and to edify on legitimate principles. One
great recommendation this magazine possesses is
its perfect freedom from cant and fine writing.
By fine writing we mean nonsense, such as
abound in some of the huge, ambitious poems
that the last few years have given birth to. " How
will the Question be Settled ?" is a spirited article,
penned in the right vein, and coming to the
only correct conclusion. " A View of Modern
English Literature" is by James Montgomery,
the celebrated author of that enchanting poem,
" The World before the Flood." It proves that
he is no less able as a prose-writer than as a
poet. The subjoined remarks on the Scotch
novels strike us as being eminently appropriate:—

" I alluded to Sir Walter Scott as the author of the
Waverley Novels,' as they are now significantly called,
the Great Unknown' having disappeared in the person of
'the Mighty Minstrel of the North,' as the worthy Baronet
had been previously called in his character of poet. These,
as the productions of one mind, exuberant beyond example
in this cold climate, are undoubtedly the most extraordi-
nary works of the age; and it might perhaps be added,
the most faulty that i❑ any age have exercised despotic do-
minion over readers of every kind, in such various ways,
and for so long a time. A higher tribute cannot be paid
to the sovereignty of genius, than is implied in this cen-
sure; for what must that excellence be which can afford
such a foil, or endure such a drawback ! It is no small
merit in these to have so quickened the cloyed appetites of
circulating-library readers for purer entertainment, that
the dullness, froth, and sentimentality which were pre-
viously the staple ware of Leadenhall-street, and other
wholesale manufacturers of novels for the spring and fall
f►shions, are no longer tolerable, and fictions of far nobler
and more intellectual character are substituted, though, of
course, the mass is not wholly purified, and the million are
the vulgar still.
" The principal literary objections to these inimitable
tales (for I meddle not with their morality) in after-times
will be, that the author, in his best performances, has
blended fact and fiction both in incidents and characters
so frequently, and made his pictures at once so natural to
life, yet often so contrary to historical verity, that hence-
forward it will be difficult to distinguish the imagery
from the real with regard to one or the other ; thus the
credulity of ages to come will be abused in the estimate of
men, and the identity of events by the glowing illusion of
his pages, in which the details are so minute and exquisite,
that the truth of painting will bring the author credit for
truth of every other kind, and most, it may be, where he
least deserves it."

DRESS COATS.

Nothing is so common or so neat and fashionable as black or
blue : the black with velvet collar, silk buttons, and the skirts
lined with serge of the same colour ; the blue with velvet col-
lor, gilt buttons, and the skirts lined with serge of different
colours, such as light blue, white, or black. They arc made
the same as last month, except the waist, which is a mere trifle
shorter.

CHOLERA IVIORI3US.

THIS dreadful malady is a disease of the
Liver, induced by bad mood, bad state of the at-
mosphere, and a diseased state of the digestive organs in
general. The public would do well by attending to the
advice and prescriptions of the late J. Abernethy, Esq.,
Surgeon. His ANTIBILIOUS and DIGESTIVE
PILLS, when taken agreeably to his directions, will not
only be found to be a mild, safe, and certain preventive
against this alarming disease, but one of the very best in
producing, under any circumstances, a sound and healthy
condition of the liver, stomach, and bowels. These Pills
are prepared by Dr. Uson, late Pupil of Mr. Abernethy,
who has appointed J. Fleming, chemist, 8, Holborn-bars,
London, his sole wholesale agent, of whom they may he
had retail ; also at Barclay's, Farringdon-street; Butler's,
Cheapside, Princes-street, Edinburgh, and Saville-street,

Thursday was married, at Northwood, Mr. J.
LEGG, nurseryman, of Gosport, to Miss H. CorrELL, of
West Cowes. Anxious to enter into the happy state, the
parties provided necessary attendants and wedding-dinner
on the Wednesday preceding, and, for the purpose of
making assurance doubly sure, bought a licence, and with
hopes elate, and splendid equipage, drove to CArishrooke
church, where the minister unfortunately examined the
licence, and found that neither of the parties belonged to
that parish. They then returned by way of Newport,
where a like trial and a like fate awaited them. A coun-
cil was held, and it was determined they should be married
at Northwood, where no obstacle, it was thought, could
present itself. Away flew the anxious pair, and every
thing promised the consummation of their wishes ; but
alas) although they bad at last alighted on the proper
parish church, the licence was dated 24 instead of 23, and
the minister refused to merry them ; as it now appeared
that every thing conspired to arrest their wishes, necessity
at last compelled them to put off their marriage until
Thursday.—Portsmouth Herald.

SLATER V. HARDING.

This case, which was an action of trespass, was called on
for trial, when Mr. Serjeant Russell applied to the
Court to allow the cause to st4nd over for a few
days, owing to the absence of a material witness, who had
been on the Continent, and was now detained at the port
of Hull, but was expected to arrive in London in a few days.

NOTICE.

" We, Mayor of the town of Croix Rousse, on the well-
founded complaints of several inhabitants of this town,
who have been in danger of being wounded by the shots
which are constantly fired from the windows of various
houses of the commune, and seeing that the public tran-
quillity is liable to be disturbed by this firing, which has
the tendency besides to increase the alarm of the citizens,
we invite the inhabitants of the town to cease firing in the
streets, courts, gardens, or from the windows of houses,
suggesting to them the serious accidents which may arise,
and reminding them of the 471st and 473 d articles of
the Penal Code.

THE LITERARY GUARDIAN.

The second part of this amusing little miscel-
lany is now before us, and on a hasty inspection
of its contents, we feel justified in asserting that
the topics discussed have at least the merit of
seasonableness and variety. The criticisms,
though necessarily brief, are full of pith and mat-
ter, and an air of bold, reckless independence
seems to pervade the work, which in these days,
when literature is a matter of sect and party, can-
not be too highly praised. The work is besides
remarkably cheap, and supplies us with the sub-
stance of a thick octavo volume, for the com-
paratively insignificant price of eightpence

VIE FUNDS.

Our arrivals this morning are very scanty—not a single
ship letter has come to hand. We are now on the eve of
the grand struggle in the House of Lords for the final
passing of the Reform Bill, which at the present mo-
ment occupies the general attention of the public, as
well as the epeculators, and which no doubt will cause a
daily agitation in the market until the grand question is
finally settled.
Consols, which left off yesterday at 821 i for account,
opened at the same, with little or ncthing doing.

HALF-PAST ONE.
Up to the present hour we are without any political in-
telligence, nor is there any expected until Monday, the day
of the arrival of the steamers. To-morrow being a very
strict holiday with the Hebrews (the White Fast), none of
them will make their appearance on 'Change, hut continue
the whole of the day in the Synagogue; therefore, it is
presumed it will be an exceeding dull day for speculations
in the Fonds. Consols have continued very heavy during
the morning, and are so at present, with little doing.
very scarce, and there is a demand for it in the

Al ARYLEBONE.

RESISTANCE of the PAR 0 CHIAL RATES.
This day, at twelve o'clock, the extensive sale-rooms of
Messrs. Dawson and Cafe, Great Marlborough-street, were
crowded to suffocation by the inhabitants of Marylebnne
to witness the sale of a quantity of Irish liners, and two
hoses of mould candles, the property of two respectable
parishioners, named Savage and Potter, that were seized
for the non-payment of parochial rates.
It appeared that the parishioners and a select vestry
have been at issue for these few years past, in conse-
quence of the inhabitants not having a vote at the
vestry, and the debt of the parish increasing
to an amount :tow beyond 120,0001. Several public
meetings were held, and last November a meeting took place
over which the Duke of Portland presided, wilt n it was
then mutually, agreed that the select vestry would not
oppose the Bill brought in by Mr. Hobhouse, then before
Parliament for the regulation of select vestries. This sa-
tisfied the parishioners at the moment; but the Bill, ih its
progress, was thrown out in consequence. This breach
of faith, added to the sum of four hundred and twenty
pounds incurred by such opposition, and charged by the
select vestry to the parish, raised such indignation, that
the inhabitants refused to pay any more rates imposed by
the Vestry. A few days ago the property of Messrs.
Savage and Potter was seized by their order, and brought
to the sale-room for non-payment of the rate.
The parishioners raised an objection to the legality of
the seizure, on the grounds that the Magistrate who signed
the warrant did not investigate the case before they did so.
Mr. SAVAGE and Mr. POTTER addressed the meeting
to the confirmation of the foregoing facts, and stated that
other Magistrates had refused to issue warrants under simi-
lar circumstances.

Mr. CAFE, who had been intrusted with the property
for sale here stepped forward and said that under the
circumstances be would decline selling the articles, and
declared that he would return them to the parish autho-
rities. This appeared to give general satisfaction, and the
parishioners retired through Marlborough-street, waiving
their hats, until they arrived at the Court-house, where
Mr. SAVAGE was addressing them when our reporter left.

A meeting took place at day dawn on Wed-
nesday morning, on Wimbledon Common, between Lieute-
nant CLAXTON, R.N., and Mr. PROTHEROE, M P. for
Bristol, attended by Captain BERKELEY, M.P., and Sir
F. VINCENT, Bart., M.P., which ended without bloodshed.
DUBLIN, SEPT. 13.--Lord CLONCUKRY
sailed from Howth yesterday evening, on his way to
London, to take his seat in the House of Lords. Mr.
PERRIN has retired from the contest in Louth, and the
candidates now are Sir PATRICK BELLEW and Sir HARRY
GOODRICKE.

We have good reason for believing, notwith-
standing all rumour to the contrary, that the Reform Bill
will piss the House of Lords. And thus shall the ques-
tion—" What will the Lords do ?" which a recent
pamphleteer has put into every man's mouth, be effectu-
ally answered.—Brighton Gazette.
