Information has been received at the different po-
lice-offices and stations, that a woman named Ann Smith,
alias Crusty Poll, was apprehended on the sth instant, by
the constable of Bithorp, near Banbury, on a charge of
highway robbery. There was a second charge against
her, and two men (not in custody), of having, some time
ago, robbed a person of his money and apparel, and left him
quite naked in the road. _ _ _

On Thursday, Mr. Carte, of the Hull Citadel, ex-
hibited a number of experiments with rockets, for the pur-
pose of showing their utility in cases of shipwreck. The
experiments commenced by showing the facility with which
lines may be fired from a vessel to form a communication
with the shore ; this was varied to show the distances which
a line may be thrown ; in one instance it being fired directly
at a vessel at a 100 yards, and another firing over the pilot-
boat, moored at a distance from the sloop in order to carry
the line 150 yards. In every case the results were most
satisfactory ; various elevations were adopted to show the
range of the rockets.

A considerable shipment of gold was made on
Thursday and yesterday for Dublin, amounting to 260,000
sovereigns, the policies of insurance upon which have been
effected this morning at Lloyd's at 5 per cent. The amount
has been divided, and shipped in seven steam-boats from
Holyhead.

Yesterday morning Mrs. Ann Benyon, an elderly
lady, residing at No. 9, New-street, Lower-road, Islington-
ton, arose from bed in her usual state of health, which was
apparently healthy, and after eating a hearty breakfast she
sat down by the fireside, and in a few minutes after she was
discovered in an easy posture, apparently asleep, and no no-
tice was taken until a friend endeavoured to arouse her
without effect, when it was found that life was perfectly
extinct.

Yesterday, a gentleman entered Hatton-garden po-
lice-office, and gave information that on Monday last Mr.
Matthew Finch, an elderly gentleman, residing at No. 33,
Richard-street, Islington, father of Lieutenant Finch, R.N.,
left home for the purpose of going a short distance on pri-
vate business ; and, although every inquiry was made after
him, no tidings whatever could be traced of him, and his
friends were in a considerable state of excitement in conse-
quence of his absence, under an impression that something
fatal had happened to him. The applicant left a written
description of his person.

The gentleman who lately left Castle Hedinghatn
so unexpectedly has, it is said, proceeded to Australia with
Sir John Falkland, a relative, who is appointed Secretaryto that Colony. His defalcations are said to be forty thou-
sand pounds, arising chiefly from transactions at Crockford's.
The estates are entailed.

BOW-STREET.

Yesterday Edward Spinks, the driver of the Norwich
mail, appeared before Sir F. ROE on summonses under the
Act of Parliament, for unlawfully allowing anotter person
to drive the horses and coach entrusted to his care on the
night of the 23d of October last.
Mr. PEACOCK, the solicitor to the General Post-OfEce,
should be able to prove that the accident which would be
described, and which was likely to be of a very serious na-
ture, did not arise from illness, but from the intoxication of
the defendant at the time. When some distance below
Epping on the night in question, the defendant was not in
a fit state to manage his horses, and called upon the guard
to drive for him. Just at the moment, as he was driving
with great rapidity and unsteadiness, the wheals of the mail
came in contact with a market cart, in which were an old
woman and a boy, and, by the concussion, both vehicles
were overturned, and the old woman precipitated with great
force to the ground, and severely injured. The mail was
dragged a considerable distance by the horses after it had
upset. The vehicle was righted, and the defendant then
got the guard to drive for him.
Wm. Williams, the guard, corroborated this statement,
and admitted that the coachman asked him to come and
" waggon" (drive) for him. They had stopped at several
public houses before they came to Epping, and at each the
defendant went in and had something to drink.
Mr. Fulfard, a gentleman residing at Newmarket, said
he was the only inside passenger'on the 28th, and on the
way, until they reached Epping, the coach stopped at a
great many public-houses. When approaching that place,
and up to the time the accident happened, witness observed
that the driving was much too rapid and very irregular,
and could not help expressing to himself a hope that he
might not be the subject of a:coroner's inquest the next day.
The coachman was then convicted in 51. penalty, and
4/. Os. 6d. costs.

G UILDHALL.

Yesterday Mr. W bitty, a newsvender in Shoemaker-row,
Blackfriars, attended before Mr. Alderman FAREBROTHER
to answer the complaint of Joseph Potter, the beadle of
the parish, for exercising his ordinary callirig on the Lord's
Day by vending a Sunday newspaper.
Potter said that during the reading of the morning ser-
vice last Sunday two strange gentlemen came up to him in
the church, and complained that the defendant was com-
mitting a nuisance by selling newspapers and almanacks
during church time. He told the gentlemen that be had
already threatened to tear down the placards from the de-
fendant's shop front ; that he could not leave the church
just then, but he would go out as soon as the second lesson
was read, and insist on the abatement of the nuisance. He
.accordingly did so. The defendant, however, was obstinate.
Civil solicitations and remonstrances went for nothing.
The placards on the shop front were about a double sheet
of the Sunday Time:, and a copy of an almmiack with
comic pictures round it. The defendant dared him to touch
them, and said if he did he would indict him for felony.
He went back to the church, fetched his fellow-beadle, and
again begged the defendant to desist from such an expo-
sure, but he was just as obstinate as before.
Mr. Mayo, for the defendant, asked him if he saw any
paper sold ?—Potter did not, but the door was wide open.
Mr. Alderman FAREBOTHER should not be disposed to
notice the sale of Sunday papers before the hours for the
commencement of divine worship, but he would unhesitat-
ingly punish every act of trading beyond that time. He
should not convict the defendant on this occasion, but he
trusted he would take warning.

RUSSIA.

COPY OF A COMMUNICATION FROM THE IMPERIAL MINIS-
TRY FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS, TO THE RUSSIAN ENVOY, M.
DE BOUTENIEFF, DATED ST. PETERSBURGH, JULY 7 (19),
1836.

Your Excellency is aware that soave years back the Im-
perial Government caused a regulation to be promulgated,
i❑ virtue of which it is forbidden to foreign navigators who
might wish to visit the eastern shores of the Black Sea to
land at any other point on the coast but those where sana-
tory establishments and custom houses exist—viz., Anapa
and Redout-kalch. _

.....„...
It having happened, that vessels attempted to elude this
prohibition, and to entertain illicit communications with the
inhabitants of the coast, our cruisers have been obliged to
become more vigilant and severe, in order to prevent similar
infractions, and it is thereby occasionally under the necessity
of detaining, and even of visiting, vessels which, without
having evil intentions, give rise to suspicion, by coming too
near the coast.

Similar cases, which had occurred more than once, have
taken place even during the course of last year.
The Imperial Minister, therefore, has considered it ne-
cessary to devise measures likely to prevent in future in-
cidents of this nature, or at least to render them as rare
as possible. To this object you are requested, Sir, to avail
yourself of the opportunities which will occur in the course.
of your relations with the corps diplonzatipe, as well as of
those between your Cancelleria and foreign Consuls, to in-
form them that the above-mentioned prohibition, which
already has been made known to them through your chan-
nel, in 1831, continuesin vigour ; that a squadron of armed
vessels watches over its maintenance, and consequently that
the merchant-ships not bound for Anapa or Redout-kaleh
will do well not to approach, without necessity, near the
coast of Abasa, should they wish to avoid exposing them-
selves to being detained and visited.

lIOLLAND.

AMSTERDAM, Nov. 10.—The Handelsblad has an ar-
ticle containing extracts from official documents, communi-
cations, &c., respecting the affairs of Holland and Bel-
gium, the object of which is to prove that the total separa-
tion of the two countries is both the wish and the interest
of Holland. That the Dutch, who had hoped that on re-
covering their independence they should likewise recover
their free commercial system, saw this hope disappointed by
the union with Belgium, by which the Government was
obliged to adopt a system of high import duties, equivalent
to prohibition, in order to favour the Belgium manufac-
turers. The Dutch, sensible of the difficult situation of
the Government, bore their lot without murmuring, and
would never have attempted to break by violence, the
fetters which restrained the most valued of their liberties.
But when the Belgians, in an evil hour for themselves,
raised the standard of rebellion, and forgetting all the ad-
vantages they derived from the union, were so stupid as to
call for separation, it is no wonder that this cry was loudly
re-echoed in Holland.

The Government soon showed that, sensible of the in-
terest of Holland, it gave up all idea of a re-union with
Belgium, the object of the negotiations during six years
was a total separation on-equitable conditions. That this was
the general conviction is proved, by the recognition of Leo-
pold by the great powers, and by all our own official docu-
ments, by every speech of the King, every communication
of our Ministers, every note of our plenipotentiaries in Lon-
don, and every address of the States-General. It therefore
appears strange that two of our Dutch journals have lat-
terly begun to lose sight of what we have for years con-
sidered as the fact. They come forward as the advocates
of what they call an administrative separation, and would
make it appear that the Government never had any other
object in the negotiations than by this means to bring Bel-
gium once more under the Government of the House of
Orange. _ _ _

" In order to refute this last (in many respects dangerous)
position, we shall content ourselves with quoting some
official documents that have been published within these
latter years."

The journalist then quotes various passages from ad-
dresses of the States-General, &c., in which the wish for a
total separation, and the intention of effecting it are plainly
expressed, and promises further extracts to the same effect.

pRODIGIO 11 S !-ANOTHER NEW
KING ! •
It happcn'd, one day, as I stroll'd through the Strand,
At Warren's fam'd Warehouse I came to a stand,
Where batteries of Blacking were on the ground,
Sufficient to polish this planet all round.
I've travell'd by day and I've rambled by night,
But I never beheld such a glorious sight;
'Twere injustice this wonder mere Blacking to call,
For it shone through the bottle, cork, label, and all.
Lucky Warren ! thought I, in the time of King James
They had tried you for witchcraft; and, doom'd to the flames,
Your Magic Black Art had excited such ire, ,
That you quickly had found "all your fat in the fire."
Rejoice that you live in more fortunate days,
Surrounded by Blacking, and glory, and praise;
New honours await thee, il•lustr:•-ous man,
And nations proclaim thee the King of Japan.

SIMS V. CHAPLIN AND OTHERS.

In this case an application had been made by Mr. Ser-
geant BOAIPAS for a new trial, and the Court had disposed
of all the points except one, which was, whether the plain-
tiff was entitled to recover, he having sent an article of more
value than was stated in the description, and without
having given the notice of its value required by the Carrier's
Act. The defendants had pleaded non assunasit, and also
that the parcel had not been delivered at any regular re-
ceiving house, and without the notice required by the Act
of Parliament. Under that second plea there could be no
doubt that the plaintiff was entitled to recover, as the Jury
were of opinion, and so also now was the Court, that the
parcel had been delivered at a receiving-house, and con-
sistently with that plea that it had been delivered with
notice. It had then been argued by the Learned Sergeant
that the plaintiff would lose his right in non assumsit, be-
cause, as it had appeared in point of fact that there was
no notice of value ; he would contend that there was no
promise on the part of the defendants under the Act of
Parliament, and the case of " Owen v. Vernet," which had
been tried in the Court of Exchequer about two years ago,
was referred to. That case, however, had occurred before
the new rules, and the Court was of opinion that that de-
fence could not now be pleaded in a plea of the general
issue. It was the duty of the defendant, in making out
that defence, to put the plaintiff in possession of that de-
fence, and not having done so, the Court was of opinion that
there should be no rule.—Rule refused.

The COURT also delivered its judgment without observa-
tion in the following cases, which had been argued during
the present term :—ln the case of Piercy v. Hall, there
ought to be a rule for a new trial—in the case of Price v.
Keane, there ought to be a new trial—in the case of Hall
v. Dixon, which was an action for throwing down a wall
and repairing premises, the Court saw no ground for dis-
turbing the verdict, although Mr. Justice Gazelee, before
whom the case had been tried, thought the damages rather
high—in the case of Doe dem. Rawlinson v. Wainwright,
there ought to be a rule for a new trial.
The COURT then took the special paper.

BAIL COURT.

FEES OF COURT_
____

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL was instructed to apply to
his Lordship by the Clerk of the Declarations, one of the
officers of the Court, for a rule calling upon Mr. Lewis, a
respectable attorney practising in that Court, to show
cause why he should not pay to the Clerk of the Declara-
tions certain fees that were due to him, or in default be
suspended from practising as an attorney for such period as
the Court might direct. The Learned Gentleman then
went into a history of the case, which merely related to
fees.—Rule granted.

UNION-HALL.

William Woodley, a grocer at Wandsworth, was brought
before Mr. TRAILL. A Mrs. Kimes, a few weeks ago,
was in the parlour of the Duke of York, near the King's
Bench Prison, in the company of the accused and a man
named Skinner, whom she had known before. Having oc-
casion to take out her purse. a bill of exchange for 1001.,
accepted by Lady Hyde Parker, dropped out of it on the
ground. Skinner picked the bill up, and, perceiving that
that it was torn a little, he said that it ought to be pasted
together. Woodley then expressed a wish to see the bill,
and, it having been given into his hands by Skinner, after
having examined it Woodley agreed in the opinion that it
ought to be properly pasted together, and said that be
should take it home and do it properly, and return it to
the complainant on the following Monday. The com-
plainant made no objection to this, but, the bill not having
been returned to her at the time, she made repeated appli-
cations for it, but could not get it out of Woodley's hands,
and her impression was that he had either negotiated it, or
that it was his intention to do so.

The complainant said that all she required was that the
bill might be delivered up to her.
To this proposition the accused at once acquiesced, and
the Magistrate said that, as the complainant had chosen to
enter into that arrangement, Woodley must be discharged.

CAMPBELL V. MACKAY.

The LORD CHANCELLOR gave judgment this morning
in this case, which was argued before his Lordship on Sa-
turday and yesterday. The case came before the Court
upon an appeal from the decision of the Vice-Chancellor,
overruling a demurrer in the bill of the plaintiff for multi-
fariousness. His Lordship, after going a great length into
authorities upon the subject, declared his opinion to be in
accordance with that of the Vice-Chancellor, and affirmed
his Honour's judgment.

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.—MELANCHOLY EF-
FECTS OF SEDUCTION.—This morning, a few minutes after
six o'clock, as two labouring men, of the names of King
and Hobson, were proceeding to their work, at Islington,
in passing over Meetwater Bridge, at the back of the Re-
gent's Park, they observed, as they thought, a person near
the edge of the Regent's Canal, but could not distinctly see ;
suddenly they heard a splash in the water, they immediately
ran to the spot, when an unfortunate female rose to the sur-
face. Hobson having a spade in his hand caught part of the
dress with it, and with King's assistance, brought her ashore,
in an exhausted state. On questioning her as to the cause
of committing the rash act she burst into a flood of tears,
and stated that having been seduced by a soldier belonging
to the Blues, and who had now deserted her, she could not
possibly return to her offended parents and family, who were
respectable, residing in a street in the parish of St. Maryle-
bone. The poor men after procuring her some refresh-
ment conveyed her to her parents' residence, where she was
received in a kind and affectionate manner. She is only
17 years of age.

COURT MAGAZINE.

The portrait of her Grace, the Duchess of Rich-
mond, which is prefixed, by way of frontispiece, to this
month's " Court Magazine," is scarcely worthy of its
long established character for the excellence of these
sort of illustrations. It is harsh and scratchy, and the
lights and shades of the countenance so managed, as to
look absolutely like wrinkles. The only good portion
of it is the hair, which falls in natural, graceful ringlets.
In the literary department, the most amusing thing is
the Autograph of Sheridan's Alterations of Kotzebue's
sickly drama, " The Stranger," which add to the ele-
gance of the dialogue, while they exaggerate its
maudlin sensibility. There is also a well-told tale by
the author of the " Invisible Gentleman."
