W OR SHIP- STREET.

A very good-looking young woman, named Mary Howe,
was placed at the bar on a charge of attempting the life of a
person with whom she had formerly cohabited.
The preceding evening, as constable N 121 was passim-, up
the Hackney-road, he was called by a gentleman, who gave the
prisoner into charge, and who stated that the prisoner had
attempted his life with a penknife, which she endeavoured to
force into his heart. The gentleman's hand was bleeding pro-
fusely. He accordingly took her to the station-house. She
vras there during the greater part of the night, and com-
plained of having been basely treated by the person who had
given her in charge, under whose protection she stated she
had been.
Mr. Conn inquired of her why she went to the house ?
The prisoner replied that it was for the purpose of again
having a home.
The young woman while at the bar fell into a hysterical fit.
Her father would take care she should not again eawe
any annoyance at the house, and that he'wou Id take her home.
Mr. COW), on that promise, discharged her.

Just published, by Willis Mosely, LL.D., Bvo., 55. cloth, Eleven
Chapters on Nervous Complaints. Simpkin and Co. ; and to be
hail of all Booksellers.
THE MOST IMPORTANT HUMAN DIS-
COVERY. A Clergyman, late of Cambridge University,
having discovered a method of curing himself of a nervous or mental
complaint of 14 years' duration, and in four years having had above
2,000 patients, all of whom he has cured who followed his advice,
except twelve, offers, from benevolence rather than aatn, to cure
others. Low spirits, mental debility and exhaustion, determination
of blood to the head, vertigo, groundless fear, failure of memory, in-
capacity for business, study, &c., restlessness, irresolution, wret-
chedness, indecision, delusion, melancholy, thoughts of self-de-
struction, insanity, &c., are curable by this important discovery.
Most recover in six weeks.

So very trifling has been the change in the markets,
both stock and commercial, since the Bth inst. (with the
exception of grain and flour), that my report of to-day
must prove of an uninteresting character. In fact, I have
little or nothing new to communicate. On Monday and
Tuesday Stocks rallied slightly, United States having risen
to 1221 ; but yesterday they declined again, and United
States hovers at about 122. Some few transactions have
been done a shade lower. Fancy stocks of all kinds are de-
pressed. The mania for wild speculation seems to be at
an end, and more solid enterprises are now sought for.
This is a wholesome state of public feeling
With respect to flour and grain, the holders are doing
1111 in their power to keep up the price, in consequence or
the Royal William hating brought intelligence of the
English ports being open at one shilling the quarter. Their
endeavours, however, have not succeeded as yet ; for al-
though the quotations for flour are at 9 dols. per barrel,
yet there are no buyers !
In Baltimore flour rules at 7.50 dols. ; in this city at
8.2.5 dots.

No rise in cotton ; but fine sorts maintain their price.
Low cottons are not in demand, except a few orders for
home consumption. Tobacco is still high, without a
prospect of decline. Money on good bills in this city is •
7 per cent. per annum. Exchange on England, 1091 to
110, with an upward tendency. Freight and seamen's
wages as before. Sugars, coffee, and tea are dull. Liver-
pool coal 9.50 dols. to 79.75 dols.

P.S. Since writing my letter I find that the counties
from which the last New Jersey returns are received have
disappointed the Van Buren party most grievously. They
have, contrary to expectation, entirely turned the election.
New Jersey has given a complete majority of 1,1.13 for the
Whigs ! The State of New Jersey faces this city, on the
opposite shore of the Delaware, and the above news has
just arrived by the steam ferry-boat.

QUEEN'S- BENCIL-(THIS DAY.)

Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE took his seat this morning at half-past nine
o'clock, when the Grand Juries wcre sworn •in. His Lorisl,ip briefly
add I e93f,d then upon the duties they had to perform, and pointer, out
particularly the eriden:•e nec,,sary to establish a prima facie case in
charges of conspiracy; and also pointed out thi, law as regarde:• charges
of perjury, which required that two witnesses, or one, with Luffic:ent

corroborative documentary evidenc,2, should depose to the f.liehood of
the statement, before a bill of indictment could be found.

The Grand Juries then retired.
THE QUEEN 0. THE BIRMINGHAM CANAL COMPANY.

This was an appeal made against a rate impased by the overseers of
the poor of the parish of Aston, near Birmingham, for the relief cf the
poor, upon the Birmingh-an Canal Company. The Magistrate s at Se,-
sions had qui,shed the rase, sui,j..,ct to the a.pinion of ahe Court, upat a
case stated.

Mr. M. D. FULL now appeared in support of the rate. It appeared
that by the Act of the 33d George 111. it was enacted that it was expe-
dient to form a branch Canal from the Birmingham Canal to Warwick.
The first twice sections regulated the communication between the
Birmingham and the intended Canal, and a rate of 6d. per ton (sin! e
reduced to 51) was fixed to be paid Ly the ns-w Canai for all goods pas,ing
into, or out of it, from the Binning: am Canal. From the 12th to the
52d section the Act referred to the promotion of the intended Canal, and
the government of the Company, and the 53d section enacted, "That
all the said rates, toll; and duties, shall at All times hereafti r be ex-
empted fniin the payment of all and every ParLamentary or other taxes,
rates, assessments, or impositions whatever." The question the Court
would have to decide was, whether these words referred merely to the
tolls and duties then levied by the New Canal Company, or whether
they extended to the toils, Ac., that were to be pale to the Birmingham
CanNl Company.

The ATTCRNEV-GENERAL was heird against the rate. It was evi-
dent that the tolls in question had been given to the Binninglinm Canal
Company as compensation fcr permitting the New Canal Company to We
theirs.

The Court was of opinion that a case of exemption had been made on
the part of the Birmingham Canal Company, and therefore the order of
the Justices at sessions must be cctifinned.
Several cases connected with the settlpment of paupers were argued,
but they contained no features cf public interest.

The arrivals of Grain and Flour this week are small, and the Conti.

a suspension of business here. For such parcels of Corn as can be got

bodies terrestrial which constitutes the chief ecommendation of many an
Ade:phi drama, and so long as it continues to be made with unqualified
success wesee no use in critical objection to its soundoesi. The story is
sight and not remarkable for novelty. It turns upon the mission of Aste-
rla, a Pleiad or " child of air," ( Mrs.Nisbett) to theregjons of arth en the
somewhat anti-celostial errand of exerting their sweet infiue:rces on the
heart man, subject to the condition exclusion from spiritual soci ty
in the event of her yielding to the weakness o: human lot•e. The
subject of this benevolent ex2eriment is a young wood-eu:ter, Roland
(Lyon), who becomes desperately enamoured of Astoria, and ultimately
succeeds, by exciting her jealousy, in inspiring a reciprocal feeling.
The success which attended the production of this novelty is mainly,
or solely, attributable to Mrs. Nesbitt's p7rforinance of the principal
character. Its attributes and circumstances bear a sort of resemblance
to Constance in the Love Chase, and it has been evidently
cnceived and written with *special regard to the peculiar sty'e
of acting, which rendered t at performance so delightful and gene-
rally attractive. Al:owing for the essential absurdity and absence of
legitimate interest, with phi, h she h rs to contend, we can safely re
comme .d her A3teria to all admi-era of exquisite grace and beauty
united to com:c talent of the first order. The piece is, as usual ad.
mirably got up in respect of scenic appo:ntments, and will, no doubt,
realise the promise cf popularity held out in its re;:ei.tion.

DONCASTER ST. LEGER.
This being the last public betting day in town the subscribers
mustered in greater force than usual, and business, considering the
dulness which has so long prevailed, was tolerably interesting. lon
obtained a marked advantage over Don John, but both were in re-
quest, several bets having been made in which they were, taken,
first at small odds, and afterwards at evens, against the field. Al-
zira was in favour, and Pucelle, with a host of admirers, speedily
rose from 15 to 11 to 1. Cobham and Lanercost had a few friends,
and here we may stop, for no others were in demand. It was
thought probable that something would transpire respecting Grey
Momus ; such, however, was not the case. Cobham and Saintfoin
are by this time at Doncaster, and lon was to start yesterday.
Pucelle, Alzira, Scott's lot, and a few others are also in the neigh-
bourhood. About twelve or thirteen are expected to run.

THE D 01V CASTER CUP.

One cannot well imagine a handsomer thing than the cup
for this year. The old cups might be varied in their forth or

device, but still they were only cups, and could not: by possi-
bility give scope for so much exercise of fancy or taste as a
piece of plate where both might be brought into play.-
In
the cup which we have just seen the se qualities are 'visible. to
the commonest observer. Under the boughs of a genuine
English oak tree, there is what are also peculiarly
English--
some magnificent specimens of thorough-bred stock. A horse,
and two brood-mares with their foals, arelbeautifully grouper t
and so correctly delineated, as to convince any body, at first
sight, that the artist has not drawn upon his imagination for
his horses. The upper part of the tree is contrived in such
manner that it may form either a bowl or a candelabrum,, as
occasion may require—and with the good old sort of racing
men both occasions will now and then occur.
This exceedingly pretty piece of plate stands on a pedestal
bearing the names of the stewards of the races for the present
year ; and the entire group—an affair of some 450 guano
value--does great credit to the taste and skill! of Messrs. Storr
and Mortimer, to whom the execution of it was very judi-
ciously entrusted.

LONDON:
FRIDAY EVENING. SEPTEMBER 14. 183 g.

`We notice with satisfaction that the connection we
have pointed out between the abolition of the Corn-
laws and the decay of the Established Church begins
to he appreciated in the country. We have seen it
referred to with approbation at public meetings ; and
we therefore seize with eagerness an illustration of the
doctrine, that if the public can throw the Established
Church on the landed interest exclusively for support,
we shall have those now close and dear allies in the
oppression of the people—the Aristocracy and the
Hierarchy—arrayed against each other. The following
letter is rather old, bearing date August 13 ; but it
seems to have been recently published in the York
Chronicle, and transferred from that journal into the
Brighton Gazette of Thursday, because of the writer's
approbation of some articles which had appeared in
the Gazette, and bespeak a community of faith on the
question of the Act for commuting tithes. The doc-
trine of Mr. E. DUNCOMBE finds many supporters,
no doubt, amongst the Yorkshire titheowners, some
of whom have already declared, at Northallerton, their
independence of and superiority to the State; as well
as amongst the parsons of the south, who speak their
sentiments through the Brighton Gazette. Their
doctrine may be guessed at from the following letter ;
but we must remark, that it seems doubtful whether,
in Mr. DuNcomnE's first quotation, " Those who
devise how to put out whom GOD will exalt," means
the parochial clergy or the landlords :

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIR,—In the letter from me, which has appeared in the The
Sun of the Bth, the manuscript has been accidentally departed
from in a word which affects the meaning of the sentence, and
therefore I beg to put it in your power to correct it. It is in
the fifth paragraph—.it should be " these regular mails," and
not " three regular mails," as you have it.
I shall be anxiouu to learn what the merchants and trades-
men, of London, of moderate fortune, think (for leviathans
always are for keeping things as they are, and swelling on)
of-the superior accommodation given to commerce and trade
in Liverpool and Manchester, and the other important towns,
from which Returns of the frequent arrival and departure of
mails, and consequent delivery of letters, have been obtained
by the Committee on Postage—all of which towns are increas-
ing and thriving.
If it bo true that London mercantile houses are establishing
themselves in Liverpool, and if it be true, as I believe it to
be undoubted by all practical men who can speak from expe-
rience, that mercantile information never comes too soon,
for the enterprising and intelligent ; and that such men ascend
the ladder in proportion to the use they make of these advan-
tages; the Traders of London may trace some part of the stag-
nation there, and the rapid progress of it in the towns fully
accommodated by the Post-office, to the superior energy of the
merchants in these towns who have successfully insisted on being
properly supplied with mails. These Returns will be found
in the Appendix of the forthcoming Report on Postage, and
will make a due impression on all who desire to see men of
moderate means rise in the world; and the price of postage
lowered to a proper scale. Without frequent mails the re-
venue must suffer by any change, and consequently afford a
plausible excuse for maintaining things as they are at St.
Martin's-le- Grand.

When I first examined Post-office lethargy on the one
hand, and abuses on the other, I saw St. Martin's-le- Grand
to be the grand emporium of both ; so I saw it during the whole of
the late investigation into postage rates; and I now see it as
the chief obstacle and main bar to cheap postage.
Your obedient servant,
Kelly, Sept. 10, 183 E. ROBERT WALLACE.

GUILDHALL-(THIS DAY.)

STEALING FLANNEL.—George Wilson was charged
with having stolen a bundle of flannel from the shop-
door of Mr. Smith, draper, Middle-row, Holborn.
Joseph Tolmey, of Cromer-street, Gray's-inn-lane, stated
that, as he was going along Middle-row, yesterday, he ob-
served the prisoner take the flannel from the door. He
immediately stopped him and gave him into custudy. The
prisoner said that a man had given it to him.
Mr. Smith's shopman identified the flannel, and the pri-
soner was directed to be taken before the Magistrates at
Bow-street.

ROBBERY IN FARRINGDON STREET.—Charles Ora? 11,
about 18 years of age, was:brought up on suspicion of
baying committed a robbery under the following cir-
cumstances :

Henry Matthews, shopman to Mrs. Dinsdalc, hosier and
glover, Farringdon-street, deposed that on the 24th Aug.,
a purse (containing 11 sovereigns), a gold chain, a ring, and
some other articles, were stolen from the bed-room of Mrs.
Dinsdale. The prisoner's brother lodged in the house, and
the prisoner lived with him, and was there on the day of
the robbery.
A policeman stated, that he had ascertained that
the prisoner had become acquainted with a girl
at the Eagle Tavern, City-road, to whom be of-
fered a ring and a pin, which she refused to
take. He afterwards told her that he had pawned
them, and showed her the tickets. The prisoner
had also deposited eight sovereigns in the bands of a
publican. . .

The girl corroborated the statement as to the ring and
pin, but said that she did not know the name of the person
with whom they were pledged.

The prisoner, who denied all knowledge of the transac.
tion, was then remanded.

BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

A loose limbed young fellow, named Benjamin Ward,
50, Charles-street, Drury-lane, was charged with beating
his mother. The old lady, who appeared from her limping
to have received several hard kicks and cuffs from her
dutiful son, said she was about to take a few onions out
last evening, for sale, in order to get a bit of supper, when
the prisoner flew at her, cursing and swearing, and, before
she had time to make her escape, he drove her sprawling
into the street with a kick in the hip. The policeman came
up at the moment, and had it not been for his interfer-
ence, by taking the prisoner into custody, he would have
made mummy of her bones.

The prisoner accounted for his conduct by saying that
he was the only means of support his mother had ; but she
was so addicted to indulge in the use of " blue ruin," that
he could never go out on his business without some of his
clothes being made away with to procure her favourite
beverage, and last night he detected her in conveying his
onions to another woman, who was waiting outside, which
exasperated him to such a degree that he might have
rough handled the old woman to recover what he procured
his daily bread by from being spent in tippling.
Mr. TWYFORD, after severely repremanding him for his
unnatural conduct, ordered him to put iu bail.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Mir 17.
GROOM AND ANOTHER V. BRADLEY.
This was an action for money had and received, brou!ht by
the .assignees of a bankrupt, named Austen, against the Sheriff
of Kent, to recover a sum of 114,1. cdd.

The baLikrupt had granted to his father-in-law a warrant of
attorney, cu•nfessing judgment for an alleged debt of 4001.,
with a stay o, execution for nineteen days ; at the expiration
of that time tiie father entered up judgment, and sued out
execution against the goods of Austen, whereupon possession
was taken by the Sheriff's officer, and this action was brought
to recover the value of the goods taken under that execution,
on the ground that at the time that execution was levied upon
the premises Austen had committed two acts of bankrutcy.
—The Jury found for the plaintiff on both issues.—Damages
1181. 14:.
