MONEY AND CITY NEWS.

(FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY.)

CHRONICLE.—There appears to be quite a pause
as regards operations at the Stock Exchange ; and there
is, in fact, nothing left for us to do but to recapitulate
prices.
Shares are likewise without any material alteration. Bir-
mingham (old) closed at 82 to 84 prem. ; ditto (new), 234
to 244 prem. ; Southampton, 444 to 454 per share ; ditto,
new, 194 to 204 prem. ; Great Western, 13 to 14 prem. ;
Leeds and Manchester, 19 to 21 prem. ; Birmingham and
Derby, / to 1+ prem. ; Brighton, 24 to I dis. ; Blackwell.
1/ to 14 dis. ; Greenwich, 16/ to 17 per share ; North
Midland, 1 to 2 prem. ; and Eastern Counties, 12 to 10 dis.
General Mining Shares, 12 to 13 ; and British Iron, 9 to
10 per share.
The exportation of the precious metals from the port of
London. for the week ending Saturday last, the 17th inst.,
consisted, according to the official returns, of 636 ounces of
gold, and 65,356 ounces of silver. 37.5 ounces of the gold
was sent to South Australia, and 261 ounces to Teneriffe.
The silver was disposed of as follows :-28,000 ounces to
Sierra Leone ; 14,000 ounces to Hamburg ; 11,500 ounces
to Rotterdam ; 9,163 ounces to the West Indies ; and
2,693 ounces to South Australia.
We understand that there is every reason to expect
Macnin, the person who is accused of forgery upon the
house of Messrs. Lizardi, and of robbery of other persons,
will be brought to justice, as we hear the Bow-street officers
have intercepted a letter from him to a there ramie. Various
accounts are given as to the extent of his frauds, but it is
generally supposed that 50,0001. will not cover them, and,
indeed, there is no telling to what extent the converted
Mexican bonds have been issued. As an instance of the
barefaced manner in which he carried on operations, it may
be mentioned, and which we know to be a fact, that as he
was making off from Messrs. Lizardi, after the discovery
of the fraud, he met a gentlemen, for whom he had been io
the habit of transacting business, and asked him to let him
have three or four hundred pounds, as it was " account
day," and he was " rather short." The gentleman thus
accosted said he had not the bank notes, but that he had
some Colombian bonds in his pocket, if they were of any
use, which it is needless to say were readily taken by Mac-
nim. It is supposed he is either gone, or is trying to get
over to Holland, where, it is said, he has disposed of a large
amount of the converted Mexican bonds.

HOME CIRCUIT—LEvrEs, AuG. 1.

James Filder, gentleman, '26, was indicted for a felonious assault
on Mary Russell, at Eastbourne, on the 11th of July last. The pri-
soner is a person in a highly respectable station of life, and the prosecu.
trix lived with him in the capacity of housemaid. The evidence,
which is totally unfit for publication, not being sufficient to maintain
the capital charge, the jury found the prisoner guilty of a common
assault only.
Lord DENMAN, in passing sentence, said that the prisoner had been
convicted upon very clear evidence of a heinous misdemeanor. A
young woman, of perfectly good character, who was under his pro
tection, who was living with two of her sisters in the family of a
married man, had a claim to conduct very different from that she had
experienced from him. Under all the circumstances the sentence of the
Court was, that the prisoner be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for
twelve calendar months.

We calf the ntion emr readers to a series of resolutions, 111

tress in Shetland, consisting of the L Ike of Argyll, Lord Wil to

and Islands of Scotland, unanimously re:. lived that the manager' °
the fund have now upwards of 10,000!. in their hands, which
they have announced an intention of applying to objects not contetn-
plated by the subscribers, and they protest in th.s strongest mander
against such an application of the fund' while the pu;pose tilt which 1t
was raised remains unfulfilled. The Cotmnittge cons', ler alre cow."

have seen in public journals motives attributed to some of the
managers for withdrawing this money from the famishing Shetlani
far from honourable to the parties implicated. The atlltir, on the foe e °
it, has, no doubt, a very ugly look, but still we do not wish to condi Olt
men, who hav2 hitherto borne a fair character, unheard. With rcs ?ect
to the hospital in StratlipetTer, all we have to say is that it is no d°ll
very much wanted, and it is highly honourable to the gentleman wllosa
health was recruited by a visit to that distant part of the lsl.l°.
to wish to testify his gratitude to the inhabitants by his exertions 1°
obta'ning for then; a hospital. We do not find fault with any 111'
whose generous intentions are beyond his means, that he levies WV".
butions on the affluent; but really it appear; to us that the withdt
of tlta money necessary for the very existence of the starving She n;
ders is not a legitimate way of being generous at the expense of (414
people. Besides, the Strathpeffer Hospital may be delayed far a l°
months wiihout any heavy calamity resulting therefrom; but the ell,
sands of Shetlaitders who, if not itnmediately relieved, must inevle.lb 1
perish, have claims on the possessors of the fund, which, if discos!' ids
must entail an awful responsibilty on them.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF CHANCERY, A C(1 CST 3.

JUDGM E!iT.-t3LASCOTT V. LANG,

The LORD CIIANCIitI,CIR gave judgment to-day in this east, which
was heard before his Lordship a few days since. The matter came be. I
fore the court upon appeal from the decision of his Honour, the
l'ke-t2liantellor, granting an injunction restraining the defendants
from proceeding to enforce. a Bottomry Bond given by the master of
a vessel White at Trieste, His Lordship observed that the question In
the ease turned upon the fact how far the Court had jurisdiction and
Wtruld exercise it to restrain a party from proceeding with a suit in the
Admiralty Court upon a Bottomry Bond given in a foreign country, the par.
ty to whom it was given coming to that Court to enforce it, and a bill being
filed questioning that security before proceedings were instituted in the
Admiralty Court. His Lordship felt no doubt whatever that the Court
had jurisdiction, and his Honour, the Vice-Chancelor, having granted
an injunction, the question was, whether, at the present time, it
would he a sound use of the discretion of the Court to dis-
solve that injjonction. His Lordship had looked through the
case made by the affi.'avit, the pleadings and evidence in support
of the application for the injunction ; and he felt bound to say quite
enough had been shown to call upon the Court to interfere. To enable
the Court to grant an injunction, it was not necessary that it should find
a case that would entitle the plaintitt' to relief at all events, but it was
quite sufficient if a case wasshowed enabling the Court to interfere.
Now, looking in the present case to what took place at Trieste, his
Lordship found that the master, and those who took the benefit under
the bond, were acting against the owner of the vessel ; it was true that
the transaction might be all right, but chill it was jeipossible to say that
it did not raise a question which the owners had a right to agitate in a
Court of Equity. There was, to say the least of it, a great deal in the
case to excite suspicion ; an.;; it never could Le said that that Court was
so be ousted of its re:6l:iat jurisdiction, because proceedings had been
taken in the `.diniralty Courts—added to this, it was ,o be recollected
that the 7:Atties who now complained had rested under the order
of th:: Court below for eighteen months. On the whole, his
Lordship was clearly of opinion that the application was much too late,
that there was no ground for it, and that therefore the appeal mction
must be refused with costs.

anti contrary to the spirit of our Constitution—compelling
Men to pav for a Church from which they conscientiously dis-
Rent, giving to the Clergy of the small minority of the Irish

GUILDHALL

On Saturday Peter Crawley, the pugilist, attended be-
fore Mr. Alderman HARMER, to answer the complaint of
Henry Holborn, of No. 23, Monmouth-street, for assault-
ing him at a public-house in Duke-street, which is kept by
Crawley.

The complainant stated that be was a dog-dealer, and
was a frequent visitor at Crawley's. On Tuesday night he
was there, and had an altercation with an acquaintance
named Jacobs.

Mr. Alderman LAINSON concurred with Alderman Har-
mer in fining the defendant Is.

Mr. Hobler then prayed that the complainant might be
Veld to bail to keep the peace, as he had threatened to
"do for" Mr. Crawley. His disposition was shown by
his wantonly smashing to death, with his fist, three linnets
he had in a small paper bag at the time the above affray
occurred.

The Magistrates, however, thought it unnecessary to
do more than exact a promise from the complainant that
he would abstain from visiting Crawley's house in future.

MARLBOROUGH- STREET.

Policeman filmer, C 130, who was charged with hav-
ing obtained ten shillings from a French woman, named St.
Ange, was brought before Mr. DYER for final examination.
Mr. DYER fined him 51., or two months' imprisonment,
with, hard labour.
Aylin was charged on suspicion of having stolen
two great coats, the property of Sr Edward L. Bulwer.
The coats were stolen from the stables, to which it was
believed the prisoner had contrived to gain access.—ln
order to give time for further inquiry, the prisoner was re-
manded for a week.

f~~

have been wilful, I should flatly contradict it, and appeal to
Mr. Buller.
In order to contradict Mr. Roebuck's imputation that
I was employed as a secret agent, or sort of spy, by
Lord Durham, it has been .necessary for me to de
scribe the opinions and sympathies with which I went
to Lower Canada. Personal inquiry on the spot,
with the best opportunities of getting at the truth, has in-
duced me to Abandon these opinions and sympathies. I
hare been forced to abandon them, in spite of the deep..
rooted conviction and earnest feeling with which they were
entertained. I believe now that I was blinded and mislo4ll
as many others have been (yoi:rself not excluded, allow-
me to say), by a course of misrepr3sentation—a regular
system of delusion, to which I was once (however uninten-
tionally, as Mr. Roebuck still is) an active party, and
which, while it occasions thelnost erroneous views here as
to the nature of the dispute in Lower Canada, has a still
' more mischievous effect in deceiving the French Canadians
as to the state of feeling in this country with respect to
to their position and objects.
As to the nature of that dispute, and the state of affairs
in the colony, the truth Will probably be known here be-
fore long ; when many will only have to wonder at the
depth of their previous ignorance. I wish that the un-
happy Canadians were as likely to be undeceived as to the
state of feeling here with respect to them.

Shelswell, the officer, communicated to the sitting Magis-
trates, Messrs. NORTON and COMBE, the particulars of
what he had done in the case of Prince Christophe, who is
better known by the cognomen of the " Black Prince."
The Magistrates inquired what had become of Mrs.
Patterson ; and Shelswell replied that she had arrived in
Baker-street before him, and there declared that no power
on earth could separate her from the Prince, and that she
was determined to stick to him through all hii fortunes,
whether privation or prosperity.
Shelswell said that he had among the documents deli.
vered up to him belonging to Patterson, the husband, abun •
dant proof that he had purchased her for 500 dollars, and
had been subsequently married to her on the 23d of April
1829, in the county of Prince George, according to the,
laws of Virginia, but it appeared she had made up her
mind to cut him altogether.

BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

Two fashionahly-dressed young men, named William
Johnstone and John Byrne, were brought before Mr.
Twyford, and Mr. Thistleton, a County Magistrate, by
Curd, a constable of the F division, charged with the fol-
lowing assault :
It appeared from the statement of a young man, named
Isaac Brien. that he was returning from the Adelphi
Theatre, on-Saturday night, about twelve o'clock, in com-
pany with his sisters, when the defendants, who were drunk,
in John-street, jolted them off the pavement, saying that the
females were ugly brutes, and challenging the complainant
to fight. Being provoked very much he took off his coat
to fight, and the defendant kept fencing before him, and after
receiving several blows, the other defendant came up and
struck him three times in the eye with a stick. After he was
knocked down, one of the defendants leaped on him, but
he did not know which of them did so, as he was stunned
by the blows he had received with the stick. The defen •
dants then ran away, but were apprehended on attempting
to get in'o a cabriolet to make their escape.
The defendant Byrne said, that he and his companion
were drunk, and seeing the complainant use a cane sword,
they ran away to avoid his violence.
The Magistrates ordered them to pay a fine of 51 each,
or to be cent to hard labour for two months each.

the affidavits read when the rule was moved, that he did
not obtain such copies till Thursday afternoon, though the
rule was drawn up for Friday, and that he was, therefore,
quite unprepared to show cause against the rule at this
moment. The Court would recollect that this was a case
in which a rule for a criminal information had been obtained
against the defendant on the application of the Earl of
Sunderland, and that the matters referred to took place in
Scotland many years ago. The plaintiff, therefore, sub-
mitted to the Court that time ought to be granted him to
enable him to send to Scotland to inquire into these mat-
ters, and to procure affidavits to defend himself.—The
Court refused the application.

EXCHEQUER COURT, Nov. 17.
HOWDON V. BARCLAY.

Mr. TOMLINSON was instructed, on the part of the de-
fendant in this case, to move for a rule to show cause why
the new trial, which had been set down fur the second sit-
tings in Term in Middlesex, should not be postponed till
the adjourned sittings after Term. The action was brought
for board, lodgings, and goods supplied. The defendant, in
his affidavit, deposed that the declaration had been delivered
on the 18th of October, the plea put in on the 10th of No-
vember, and issue joined and notice of trial given on the
12th. The goods, &c. which formed the cause of action
had, in a great measure, been supplied to the wife of the
defendant, and his defence was adultery on her part, com-
mitted abroad.—Rule granted.

The other business before their Lordships was devoid o
interest, and the Court rose at two o'clock.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

BOW-STREET.

James Blann, the driver of the cab 1,480, appeared be-
fore Messrs. ROBINSON and MINSIIULL, to answer the
following complaint made by Mr. Daniel Whittle Harvey,
the Registrar appointed under the Act for the Regulation of
Public Carriages.
Mr. Collincourt, who attended from the office of the Re-
gistrar-General, said that, upon the 6th of November, a
man applied at the office for a renewal of a license. He in-
quired upon what grounds ? The man handed in a dirty
card, and upon looking at it, he asked if the man who pre-
sented it was the driver of the cab ? He said he was not,
and they might be —. He was asked for the license
and badge, which he not only refused to produce, but was
also very insolent.
The defendant was not possessed of the forms which the
law required, but he thought he had done all he was re-
quired to do by sending the notice he had by a friend.
Mr: Collincourt—He was not only insolent, but after
being told he must produce his license, he refused, and in-
sulted every person in the office.
The Bench said they had the power to enforce a fine of
forty shillings, or two months' imprisonment ; they would
not go to that extent, but fine him 205., or one month's im-
prisonment.
The defendant was then removed from the bar.
