FULHAM LOD();E,

ONE OF THE MOST DELIGHTFUL VILLAS NEAR
nu? METROPOLIS, IN THE KING'S ROAD, EM-
HOS'SOMED IN ITS DELIGHTFUL GROUNDS, AND
THIRTEEN ACRES IN PADDOCKS, FREEHOLD AND
COPYHOLD, WITH A NOMINAL FINE.
TO BE SOLD BY AUCTION,
By MR. GEORGE ROBINS,
t the A!ietion Mart, on THURSDAY NEXT, 7th June, at Twelve,
ADELIGHTFUL VILLA RESIDENCE,
very long acknowledged as one of the most recherchee in the
environs of the metropolis. Amid its manifold qualifications, the
great desideratum of being within three miles of Hyde Park, is not
the least.

FULHAM LODGE, and its DELECTABLE GROUNDS,
are in the King's Road, and yet so ingeniously placed, that, in its
snug domain, there is all the privacy that is so essential to recrea-
tion, after the bustle and fatigue of professional pursuits. The
full grown arc luxuriant plantations exclude it from public gaze.
THE LAWNS ARE RESPLENDENT IN FLOWERS.
AND THE AMERICAN PLANTS, SUPERABUNDANT,
every where, render it almost independent of change in the seasons.
Winter is hardly recognized at Fulham Lodge. It does not aspire
to the character of a Mansion, but it claims to possess every essen-
tial connected with

A DELIGHTFUL VILLA RESIDENCE,
and the offices within and without are alike of a corresponding
decription.
THE EXTENSIVE KITCHEN GARDENS

are richly clad with well selected fruit-trees, adorned by Hot and
SuA:ession Houses, and

The disposition of the Lawn an:l Pleasure Grounds are worthy
of liepton. There are
THREE RICE! PADDOCKS,

encompassed by lofty walls and oak paling, affording pasture for two
or three cows, independently of provender for the horse establish-
ment ; and the situation is most inviting to those who would Lye
without drawing upon the resources of their capital, inasmuch as
a large meadow, enclosed by lofty walls, and an
IMMENSE FIIONTAGE TO TILE KING'S ROAD,
may be appropriated to
WELL SECURED GROUND RENTS,
and the adventure would be one without a particle of doubt ; the
tenure is

FREEHOLD AND COPYHOLD,
he latter quite equal to the former, subject only to a nominal fine.
May be viewed until the sale—by tickets only. Particulars

rCTION COMMITTEES.
_
---ruRDAY.)

(From our Second Edition of last night.)
LEICESTER.

The Committee met at two o'clock, Lord SEYMOUR in the chair.
Mr. Thessiger and Mr. Wrangham appeared for the petitioners (Tories).
Mr. Harrison and Mr. Austin for the sitting Members (Liberals).
Mr. TIIESIGER opened the case for the petitioner. He rested his
case entirely upon the charge of bribery, and treating on the part of the

sitting Member, chiefly effected through their agent, Mr. Biggs, whom
he could not produce, as that gentleman had gone to America, just one
week after the birth of his first chl!d, and one month after the birth of
this petition.—(A laugh.)
Mr. AUSTIN—Not so short a bite after its conception.—(Laughter.)

arr. MESMER then read an extract from a letter of Mr. Biggs, in
which the fa,`.!.er dwelt passionately upon the happiness of the married
state. The reading o: the flitract occasioned much merriment, and
Mr. Thessiger argued from it,
with considerable humour, that
so loving a husband could not, without acme very ;'rung induce-
ment, be persuaded to cross the Atlantic, in the tent'. month
after his marriage. Mr. T. contended that Biggs was sent out of i:2e
way by the sitting Members, to prevent the petitioners from proving his
agency. But he (Mr. T.) would be able to prove that by means of other
witnesses.

The Poll-books were then put in, and the Town Clerk, Mr. Stone,
was called to prove their authenticity; but in his examination it was
elicited, that they had been four hours out of his custody, whilst his
assistant Clerk was correcting the printed lists.

Mr. HARRrsoN for the sitting Members objected to the books being
received on the grounds of insufficient authentication, and their hav-
ing been illegally out of the custody of the proper officer.
After a long argument the room was cleared, and on the readmission
of strangers, the Chairman announced that the Committee had de-
cided that the poll books should be received, but only as evidence that
a poll had taken place.
Mr. HARRISON stated that in consequence of that decision he should
have to cross-examine the Town-Clerk, and therefore he requested the
Committee to adjourn till to-morrow at eleven o'clock, which was
Agreed to.

HOLLAND.

THE HAGUE, APRIL 3.—His Majesty having fixed this day
for closing the Session, the Minister of the Interior repaired
to the sitting of the two Chambers united, and closed the
Session with the following speech in his Majesty's name :
" High and mighty Lords :
" The Session which lam now to close by his Majesty's
commands is no less distinguished than the preceding, as well
by the importance of the business done, as by the uninter-
rupted zeal with which you have co-operated in the various
legislative measures which have been successively carried
into effect. By the adoption of the budget and the laws con-
nected with it, the service is provided for, public confidence
confirmed, and the burdens on articles of the greatest ne-
cessity have been diminished. Many other important laws
have been enacted in this Session. Among the most impor-
tant is that relative to the transition from the old to the new
Legislation, the adoption of which has caused the introduc-
tion of the new Legislative and Judicial Institutions, in the
course of this year.
" The adoption of the extraordinary expenses for the army
and navy, and the unanimity of the second Chamber on that
occasion, enable the Government to exert itself without re-
laxation to obtain a final setlement of our affairs.
" Such unanimity cannot fail to confirm internal prosperity,
and to obtain respect, as it supports the King in the prose-
cution of his designs, which are invariably directed to the
welfare of the country and the happiness of the people.
In the King's name I declare this ordinary Session of the
states General to be closed."
His Excellency then withdrew, and the Assembly broke up.

HULL.

Wm. Bell, a Barton voter, was retained, the: proof of identity
not being complete.
John Blanshard, ropemaker, Barton, was next objected to. He wag
proved to have been at the beer shop at Barton, afterwards at the Swan,
then on board the steamer, and finally at the Homier Tavern. None
of the refreshment of which he partook was paid for by him.

The Committee retained the vote.
David Fisher was objected to as having been treated, but his vote was
retained.

John Green, objected to on the same ground, was also retained, the
objection having been abandoned.

The votes of -Iphn Glover and Edward Hunt, objected to by the peti-
tioners as having been treated, were retained, the evidence not being
conclusive.

The next vote objected to was that of Richard Davis. It was proved
that he partook of the refreshments at the beer shop, and at the Swan
In Barton, and also at the Humber tavern, Hull. Mr. Risdule, the land-
lord of the latter house, deposed that the refreshments were ordered by
Mr. Cottley, to whom a bill had been sent in, amounting to about 201.
The case had not concluded when the Committee adjourned at four
o'clock.
London, England, 1838-04-07

NEGRO EMANCIPATION ACT.

Sir G. GREY, brought up the report of the Committee on
the Negro Emancipation Act Amendment Bill.
Mr. GLADSTONE objected to the 13Th Clause of the
Bill, which exempted the special Magistrates from costs in
cases where verdicts were had against tem. There might be
cases, although rare, in which special Magistrates were disposed
to act unjustly, and he thought the exemption should be con-
fined to those cases in which the Governor would think it
right to interfere.
Sir GEORGE GREY objected to fixing such a limit to
the power of the Governor ; and in such cases he thought
there ought to be a power in the Governor to award costs.
Mr. GL AD STON E agreed in the propriety of giving the
Governor power to relieve the special magistrates from costs.
Mr. HOWARD did not think th© remuneration given to
the special magistrates was sufficient to compensate them for
residing in so deadly and unhealthy a climate to Europeans.
And this country, having granted 20,000,0001. to the planters,
would not object to a small addition to the salaries of these
gentlemen.

Sir G. GREY proposed that a clause should be added ex-
plaining that it was only the apprentices subject to the Act of
1833 that were to be subject to this Act.—Agreed to.
The Report was received, and the Bill ordered to be read a
third time on Monday.
London, England, 1838-04-07

POOR LAW LOANS BILL.

The Report upon this Bill was received.
The Custody of Insane Persons (Ireland) Bill went through
Committee, and the Bill was ordered to be reported on
Monday, after a few observations from Mr. WAKLEY and the
ATTORNEY-GENERAL for Ireland.
Behren's Naturalization Bill was read a second time and
ordered to be committed on Monday.
Mr. ASHTON YATES moved for a return from the
West India Colonies of the number and names of the estates
on which piece or task work had been introduced, with the
view of ascertaining the progress made from slave to free la-
bour. The Hon. Member was proceeding to read a letter
from Antigua on the subject, when an intimation was given
that no opposition would be offered to the returns.
Sir GEORGE GREY said there would be no objection
to the returns moved for, if the information could be procured.
Lord MORPETH presented several petitions, praying for
an alteration in the Factories Regulation Act, as far as related
to the trade in woollen cloth. The Noble Lord then pre-
sented a petition from Kilmurry and other places, for the abo-
lition of tithes; a petition from St. Katherine, Dublin, for an
alteration in the Grand Jury Laws ; and a petition from certain
medical practitioners in Dublin, in favour of an increase in the
number of officers to medical institutions.

Mr. WAKLE Y presented a petition from 850 inhabitants
of Stirling, for an unconditional repeal of the duties on the
importation of foreign corn.
The House then adjourned.

ELECTION COMMITTEES.
(THIS DAY.)

HULL.

The Committee met this morning at the usual hour, when
Mr. HILDYARD addressed them in support of the vote of
Richard Davis, which was under consideration when the Com-
mittee adjourned last night. The Committee struck off the
vote.

John Percival was next objected to. He was proved to
have been present at thejner-shop, and at the Swan, at Barton,
when Mr. Cattley was there, and that he partook of the re-
freshments. He also breakfasted and dined at the Humber
Tavern with the rest of the party. It appeared that his wife
or family were not present at the Humber Tavern, although
the voter was present at the Swan when a general invitation
was given. , On this ground Mr. THEISIGER submitted that
the vote was a good one ; for, although it might be consi-
dered a corrupt offer, it could not extend to the party to whom
it was offered, unless he actually accepted the invitation.
The Committee struck off the vote.

Edward Thompson was next objected to. The evidence
was nearly the same as in the last case. The Committee
struck off the vote.

LEICESTER.

The Committee met at eleven o'clock, when Mr. TUES.
NIGER stated that in consequence of the absence of Mr.
Biggs, the agent of the Sitting Members, who was out of the
country, it would only be a waste of time to proceed with the
case of the petitioners.
The Committee then resolved that the Sitting Members
were duly elected, and the petition not frivolous or vexatious.

WICKLOW.

The Committeee met to-day at twelve o'clock, Mr. CHARLES
Wool) in the Chair.

Mr. TIIESSIGER opened the case for the petitioners. and
commenced by stating the numbers at the close of the poll, as
follows :

Mr. Grattan
Mr. Howard 696
Colonel Acton 623

Majority

The petitioners complained that this was a colourable ma•
jority, that improper votes had been admitted, and that
parties had been allowed to exercise the franchise who had
no title thereto. Before, however, they came to inquire into these
facts, they would have to raise the all-important and often-
disputed question of opening the registry, which he was sure
the Committee would never consider in the light of a sealed
book. The only business which they would have to transact
to-day was to prove the poll-books, which he would now pro-
ceed to do. On Monday a vote would be put up for the
purpose of raising the question of opening the registry.
Mr. AUSTIN raised some objections to the proof given of
the poll-books ; but after hearing Counsel on both sides, the
Committee decided in favour of the proof.
The Committee adjourned shortly after two o'clock, to
Monday morning.
London, England, 1838-04-07

WICKLOW.

The Committee assembled to-day at half-past Three o'Clock, Mr.
CHARLES Wool) in the Chair.

Mr. Thessiger, Mr. Keatinge, and Mr. Wrangham, appeared for the
petitioners ; Mr. Austin and Mr. Close for Mr. Grattan ; Mr. Biggs and
Mr. Andrews for Mr. Howard.

Lists were then exchanged by the parties, and the Committee ad.
journed to Twelve o'Clock tomorrow, it having been agreed, that
nothing should be done at the next meeting beyond the mere opening
of the case by Mr. Thessiger, in order to meet the convenience of Mr.
Austin, who is labouring under indisposition.
London, England, 1838-04-07

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
Mary Ann North, a pretty girl, about seventeen years of
age, was brought before Mr. DYER, on suspicion of having
made away with her illegitimate offspring.
Some persons were-cleansing out the drain of Mi.. Towns-
end's (a poulterer) house, in Charles-street, St. James's, when
the body of apparently a full grown female child was found.
Mr. Townsend said the police had ascertained that the pri.
soner had recently been delivered of a child.
Mr. DYER said the matter must stand over until a coroner's
inquest had been held.
The girl, when asked, replied she had nothing at present
to say.
It is remarkable that a girl so very young could have got
through the trying circumstances of her accouchement so well.
She never left her work for an hour, and even her fellow-ser-
vant was ignorant that such an event had occurred.

Yesterday a coroner's inquest was taken before
Mr. Payne. at the Griffin, Threadneedle-street, on view of
the body of Daniel Goodwin, aged thirty, who met his death
while taking down the wall of the west. front of the late Royal
Exchange. Verdict—" Accidental Death." The first wit-
ness gave the expenses allowed him to the widow, which
amounted to 3s. 6d. 'The foreman of the Jury said that they
could not do better than f,llow so good an example. 'They
each subscribed a 7. billing, when she obtained about 30s. The
unfortiunte woman's feelil,gs were so overpowered that she
burst into tears, and sank in a chair, giving way to occasional
hysterical shrieks.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

has been reported in many Papers of the 3d at
April, that a man named Mara Dembriki, calling himself a
Polish Refugee, has been brought before the Magistrate,
charged with having created a disturbance at the residence of
Lady Carysfort, and that in consequence of statements proving-
his exceedingly violent conduct in such circumstances, and an
assault on Lady Caryfort's porter, he has been fined 31., or
one month's imprisonment.
After sudi a report we think it our duty to inform the
public, that the aforesaid individual, whose name by the wily is
Jaxa Dembicki, has long since, through his misconduct
en and
incorrigibleness, lost all title to the esteem of his countrym.
who have covered Lim with ignominy and censure, and thatt
they formally disown and decline every responsibility in thl.
acts of a person who has long since forfeited the right °'
calling himself a Polish Refugee.
We seize, moreover, this occasion to apprise the English
public, that there arc many such like individuals, who, en-
sconcing themselves under the title of Polish Refugee, rini
over all Great Britain to make the best of the symPatll
awarded by the English people to the cause of Poland, or
rather are sent by our enemies through the British Empire
to tire and fatigue their generous feelings, and thereby to
extinguish them.
We beg the English public will be persuaded that nh^n rrhon;it
love of their country has driven to all kind of sacrifices, and
to the greatest of all, exile, are not to be easily tempted int°t•
a mean and petty sort of knavery or ill behaviour in the net ,
begging. There are, it is true, some usurping the name of
Polish Refugees, and whose conduct is infamous, but we re-
peat and maintain, that they never were, arc, nor shall be
Polish Refugees, but only miserable counterfeits.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL MARKET.

CITY (THIS DAY), TIVEL YE 0' CL 0 CI.
Most of the pri►ate letters received from New York this
morning, correspond with the information in the American
Papers in respect to commercial affairs, which are of a gloomy
description, and say that they have no idea when a change will
take place for the better.
The affairs in Upper and Lower Canada are of a very fa-
vourable nature. Both the provinces remain in a state of
tranquillity.

RAMSAY V. ELMS.
Mr. ERLE moved for a rule to show cause why a new trial
should not be granted in this case. This was an action for
slanderous words spoken of the plaintiff by the defendant.
It was tried at Exeter, before Lord Denman, and a verdict
given for the plaintiff, damages 401. The plaintiff was
Churchwarden for a parish in Exeter, in 1813, and was lately
again candidate for the office. The slanderous words applied to
the plaintiff were that he had refused to render proper accounts
of certain sums which had passed through his hands, amount-
ing to between 2,000/. and 3,0001., and that, in particular Ed
sum of 3001. had been abstracted in a way liable to great sus-
picion. Mr. Erle moved for a new trial on the ground that.
the plaintiff was not filling an office of trust at the time this
language was applied to hiln.—Rule granted.
3/I`UftE V. FRASER.
Mr. CRESWELL moved for a conditional rule for a new L'ial
in. this case, tried at Liverpool before Mr. Justice Coleridt;:e7
when a verdict was given for the defendant.
The COURT would take time to consider respecting its
decision.

Totiso U. aowLEs.
Mr. ERLE, in this case, moved for a new trial, on the ground
of improper admission of evidence, and misdirection of the
Learned Judge. This was an action of trespass, for breaking
through a close, stated to be the property of the plaintiff. It
was tried before Mr. Justice Bosanquet, at Cambridge, and 8
verdict given for the plaintiff. The defence set up was, that
the close was not the property of the plaintiff. The evidence
of possession set up by plaintiff was, that he had employed a
boy for some time on the close to drive the birds off, and that
he had been rated for the property. With respect to the first
evidence of possession which had improperly weighed with
the Jury, evidence was rejected that the defendant Rowles
had immediately warned off the boy, who had accordingly left
the close ; and with respect to the second point, it could only
be fairly presumed that the plaintiff had, in order to obtain
some show of possession, requested the collector to get him
assessed for the property, which was accordingly done. This
rating could not be construed into proof of actual possession.
And; in fact, the rating to the amount of 16s. Bd. was not for
the close itself, but for some old wood upon the close.
The COURT would consult with Mr. Justice Bosanquet,
and consider its judgment.

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET.
The arrivals of Grain, Flour, and Oatmeal, have been rather light

dealers at this morning's market. Wheat was in fair request, and busi-
ness to a moderate extent was transacted in this article at an advance of
ld, to 2.d. per 701bs. Flour sold more freely, and has advanced slightly
since this day week. Oats were rather dull, but they maintained our
last quotations. Oatmeal, however, was in demand, though a trifling
reduction was submitted to. In any other article we have no alteration
of importance to report.

HAYMARKET THEATRE.

sass
Miss Elphinstone appeared last night as Julia, in thee
Hunchback, and most amply sustained our previous opiniort 0
her merits. In poetic feeling, keen sensibility, and thiz!
pathos which lies too deep for utterance, she "5
d
incomparably the first tragic actress of the present ia)"
Like Miss O'Neil she trusts to nature for effect,
our sympathies along with her, till we forget the actress In t r
charming illusion of the scene. The part of Julia had "eld
a better representative than Miss Elphinstone ; and we could
envy the feeliniss of wonderment and pride of the actor-
in beholding his beautiful creation embodied so exquisitely; ,
He must have occasionally doubted when he saw the workings 01
nature so truly developed, whether he had not borrowed from the
actress the very sentiments which she was illustrating in all
their living beauty and impassioned eloquence. As art is but
the handmaid of nature—the shadow, not the sub.stance---
how great indeed must the triumph be when we mistake the
one and earribees
for the other I Yet so it was last night in the personatiors
of Julia. Miss Elphinstone has studied the character so well
—a woman's character in all its bearings—innocence, love,
folly, pride, remorse, and that sincerest of all pleasures, the
enjoyment resulting from the devotion of a repentant
heart, triumphing in the mastery of its struggles If we have
any fault to find with Miss Elphinstone, it is that sheo
was natural overmuch. Had she studied to make " points,.
or hits," she might have astonished the natives more, and
have pleased the critics less. When Clifford is plying his
suit, her bye play was admirable, and her manner of saying
" How much he speaks like Master Walter,"
was exceedingly happy. If she had more confidence in her
self, she would be still more effective ; but confidence, "14
genuine merit, can only be the result of time and circumstaece
—with ordinary minds, it is often mistaken for presumption;
In the earlier part of the play, Miss Elphinstone appeared ale
take matters easy ; but as the hues of passion deepened, 0_
seemed to revel in their intensity. The other characters ,ere
represented with excellent judgment, particularly Helen by ,firs.
represented who entered into the very spirit of the scene 07",
a gusto that elicited much applause. The play was annotme,e'.'
for Thursday and Tuesday next, and was responded to witn
acclamation.
Mr. Knowles was called for, made his appearance, 4nd re-
tired amid the roar of happy voices.

Q UEEN. S QUARE.

James Cain, a stout Irish labourer, was yesterday placed
at the bar, charged with having stolen a feather-bed, a man's
wife, and all his worldly chattels, leaving him two poor infants
only as a legacy.
Prosecutor, W. Walsh, a diminutive Irishman, said that the
prisoner had his back shed, and that he and his wife occupied
the front, and that the prisoner was accordingly their lodger,
and slept by himself, and that he " robbed his bed."
Mr. WHITE—How robbed your bed? He did not do it
when you were in bed ? Prosecutor—Oh, no, your Worship
I came home at night, and the devil a wife or bed either could
I find.

Mr. WHITE—Then he stole your wife a 3 well ?-Prosecutor

—By my soul you've hit it, your whorship ; and he stole a box.
Mr. Wnirit—What did the box contain ?—Prosecutor—
Your worship, I don't be quite sure about that same, because
ye see that I didn't know what was in it.—( Much laughter.)
Mr. WHITE—Now tell me the value of the property you
have lost?—Prosecutor—There's the bed, and bad luck to me
if it didn't cost me one pound ; and there's the box, and I
don't know what that's worth ; and then (here the prosecutor
gave a long list.
Mr. WHITE—You hasn't reckoned your wife in the list ?
Prosecutor—Oh, by the saint, I think she's worth nothing
now, and so I missed her.—( Much laughter.)
It appeared from the statement given by Mr. Moran, the
inspector, that the prosecutor had been married twelve
years to his faithless rib, and she and the prisoner had
stripped the room, leaving two poor infants without even
victuals or covering.
Paddy Rourke, another labourer, was called as a witness and
he said " It wasn't gentlemanly to stale a man's bed and his
wife, and then say he'd bate her."
Mr. WHITE committed the prisoner for trial.

•
SOMNAMBULISM EXTRAORDINARY.—On Mon-
day morning last, between two and three o'clock, the family
of Mr. Niles, of this borough, were alarmed by the cries of
their daughter Margaret, a fine girl about ten years of age.
The servant proceeded to the bed in which she slept, and was
astonished at not finding her there. The cries of the child
were still heard, but not so distinctly as to ascertain where
she was; at length, on searching the kitchen fire-place, the
child's legs were seen upon the back of it, the rest of her body
being up the chimney. After considerable difficulty she was
released from her horrible situation, in a state better imagined
than described. It appears she had got up in her sleep, and
having climbed up the chimney, the falling of the soot awak-
ened her, and finding herself in such an unusual and horrible
situation, she had screamed aloud. She is no worse, excepting
the fright.—Sunderland Herald.
There have been 75 cases of accidents taken to St.

THE CORONATION DAY.

All hail, Queen Victoria ! all hail to this day,
So teeming with promise—we welcome it here!!
As the bright stream of glory pursues its glad way,
And the blessing of thousands ascends in that cheer !

But if thousands on thousands are happy before thee,
Saluting thy favours, and catching thy smiles;
Oh ! think of the millions of hearts that adore thee—
For this day is a JUBILEE over the isles !

Not alone o'er the isles—but Hindostan afar
Doth our jubilee spread—in the West, the poor slave,
As he prays for thy mercy, " fair Liberty's star !
" Be the Queen of the FREE, as the Queen of the brave.'

Let the African joy, for his freedom is nigh;
Our Queen would not reign but o'er happy and free :
Let that thunder attest it—yon banner on high—
The Banner of Glory o'er land and o'er sea!

Bear witness, ye Nations ! the homage we pay,
The pride that we feel, and the love we declare ;
For the Queen of our hearts is, on this happy day,
Not alone of the brave--but THE Queen of the Fair !

Nor can chivalry boast, in the rolls of renown,
A scene such as THlS—for old 'rime stands apart,
While the Crown of her PEOPLE VICTORIA puts on,
All radiant with beauty--and pure as her heart !

Then fill up a bumper to honour THE QUEEN !
Our hands and our hearts in devotion we give;
And our children, while weeping with joy o'er this scene,
I Shall pray, GOD bless VICTORIA ! and long may she live.
