MOUTH-SATURDAY.

• ' (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
from At an election for an officer to collect the dues under a lease
the Duchy of Cornwall,-the Council had three appli-
-7,11114 for the situation, two Liberals and one Tory, when, to
"le titter dismay of the friends of the former, the latter was
appointed; but in doing so, the cloven foot of a distinguished
ir'eulber was laid bare; for the mode of voting was by each
1118A-retiring into another room, and putting a mark under the
itztualw eof the person he wished to be collector. On the list
Ten 4; handed to the Mayor, to decide on whom the majority
ell, it was found there were 15 marks and only 14 persons
tresent which of course called for an inquiry ; when, lo and
behold ! the tricks that have so often been played in olden time
Here again revived, by one member (I need scarcely say he
etas a Tory) declaring HI? thought that nu had a right to
rhe TWO marks, in preference, I suppose, to all the rest
4...401 an act certainly ought to have called for a severe censure
nrn the Mayor and the rest of the Council ; but, unfortunately
Tor this town, the balance of power in the Town-hall is on the
side of Toryism, and we must still have patience and another
struggle
to turn them out. Had our independent M. P. been
"ere, he no duubt would have acted with that true patriot
Ririt that has always guided him, and held up the despicable
wretch to the scorn' of the public; but I am sorry to say it was
wretch
to pass by_ unnoticed by the chief magistrate.

Possessing one, and ,have succeeded in keeping it in perfect

The depredators who have lately infested BIC town

velvets, the Vicar's gown, and the surplice were found in a
Sia,,,dt, which was concealed in a plantation belonging to the
N. D'Eye. The plate is not yet found. Rayner

tO nr Norwich the same night, and has since been committed

IYIYSTERIOUS CASE.—A few days since, as a la-
-I:ourer, of Axbridge, Somersetshire, was digging up an old
s.paragus bed in a garden, he discovered a human skeleton,
i;!i)li'g abeut three feet below the surface. Rumour says, that

The Western part of Cornwall, contiguous to the

tvery fine new potatoes (early kidneys) were produced from the

IlrilE MISCREANT TRAFFICKER IN SEATS.—If
rookes's Club does not relieve itself from association with the
Cing of the. Beggars—where he is, and which is the place for
gentlemen only—it is expected that Sir Francis Burdett will
withdraw. Sir Francis is a gentleman of high honour, and,
consistently with his character, must resort to the only alterna-
tive left hint. We used to think Lord Melbourne a gentle-
Man, and a proud one, but, &c.. &c." [This is the calm,
gentlemanly, and creditable style in which the Stockport Ad-
Vertiser habitually indulges. The juxtaposition of another
article, flamingly headed, " Political persecution, ourselves,
and the Liberty of the Press," furnishes us with something
very like cause and effect. It seems that a criminal informa-
tion for an alleged libel on a member of the Town-Council,
has been granted against the Advertiser. We, of course,
shall not be understood as countenancing criminal informations
directed against any journalist whatever, in the fearless dis-
charge of his public duty ; nor as rejoicing in our Conserva-
tive contemporary's inconvenience. We merely mark a coal-
men enough coincidence—bad words and objectionable pro-
ceedings.]
