INFORMATION.-CIIAMAN V. NEVOR AND ANOTIIER

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL moved for a rule to show cause
Why a criminal information should not issue against John Wm.
Trevor, and his son John Trevor, solicitors, carrying on busi-
ness at Bridgewater. The application was made on behalf of
John Chapman, a Magistrate of the borough of Bridgewater,
to whom the expref,:sions, " you are a liar and a scoundrel,"
were applied by the defendatas;-in -consequender-of-§bme mis-
understanding which took place between the parties, arising
out of the non-appointment of John Trevor to the office of
town-clerk and clerk to the Magistrates.
The COURT did not think it a case for their interference.

-(THIS DAY).

Our arrivals this morning are the French, Ostend, and Dutch
mails, with a mail from Lisbon by the Nautilus—sailed on the
3d of April. The last does not bring any news of importance.
At the above period it appears that the Prince had not arrived.
We have also received ship letters from Mauritius of the 24th
Nov., and Cape of Good Hope to 26th Jan., old dates.

THE FUNDS.
This being settling day in the Foreign Market, the brokers
and jobber 2 are chiefly employed in settling their accounts,
v:ltich are expected will he closed without any failures, as
little credit is given, with the exception of the first-rate spe-
culators, although Spanish Active Bonds come 1 per cent.
lower from Paris, it hos not had any effect to depress the
Spanish Market, being counterbalanced with the confirmation
in the House of Lords last night, that the letter from Lord
John Hay to General Cordova was authentic, which has
caused Spanish Stock to continue steady, at 471 to ;1.; Portu-
2-nese, 831 841 ; Three per Cents., 531 544; Spanish

THAMES HAVEN RAILWAY.—On the motion of
Mr. Branston the Thames Haven Railway and Dock Bill was
last night read a second time.
The Gazette de France announces that the Count
de Peyronnet, one of Charles the Tenth's Ministers,: has re-
lapsed into a nervous fever, and is now seriously indisposed
at Ham.

The Church-goers at Boston were signally defeated
on Thursday last, when they expected snugly to obtain a rate.
The horse that Abdcl Kader mounted at the battle
of Mascara, and which was captured, has just arrived at Mar-
shal Clausel's house, in Paris. The horse, of the Andalusian
breed, is intended for the Duke of Orleaes.
The whole faubourg of St. Germain has just been
thrown into great agitation by an impending scandalous law-
suit, which, after thirty years' peaceful enjoyment of it, is about
to deprive of a fortune of 30,000,000 francs, a noble devoted,
and pious Duchess. Married without a fortune, a widow with-
out children, it is said that, to obtain possession of her hus-
band's whole fortune to the exclusion of his heirs, she has re-
sorted to means more than indelicate. A step-son is mentioned,
whose condemnation to death the Noble lady obtained in 1794,
in return for a certain intimacy with Robespierre. Even a
forged will, the forgery of which has been but recently disco-
vered, is spoken of ; and, by a providential singularity in this
extraordinary case, it happens that, through an exception in the
law, in spite of the thirty years that have expired, four years
are wanting to confer prescription on the Noble Dowager's
property.—Bon Sens.
ZooLoGY.—One day an eagle was observed fre-
quently to dart towards the Missouri, and then to rise again.
His evolutions attracting attention, it was observed that be was
endeavouring to take a wild goose which had alighted in the
river, and which dived to avoid him; but, on rising to get
breath, was again attacked, aad had again to dive in order to
save himself. The chase had continued in this way some
time, the goose apparently yielding, when it suddenly turned
and made to the shore of Colonel Pot's farm, where two
men were at work. It there landed, and walking leisurely
up to the men, permitted itself to be taken by them without
an effort to escape. It appeared extremely exhausted.—

NEW YORK.---THE BURNT DISTRICT.—Up-
wards of 200 buildings are now rising from the ashes of the
great conflagration, and every fair day adds some ten or a dozen
to tile list. Many of them have' their cellar walls up ; some
the first story walls and granite fronts; some the timber of the
second floor, &c. The district resembles for activity the sur-
face of an ant-hill on a summer's day. As soon as industry
can accomplish it, all the destroyed stores will be replaced, and
with edifices far more beautiful and convenient than the old
ones. The streets will be much better, and on the whole we
have no doubt that business will be more firmly fastened to this
section of the city than it would have been if the fire bad never
occurred..—New York Journal of Commerce.
