be paid within thirty days from that date.
This Society APPROPRIATES the WHOLE of the PRO-
FITS to the reduction of the Premiums of Members, and this is
UNDIMINISHED by AGENCY or COMMISSION, the
business of the Society being conducted without that expense.
The effect of the principle of Mutual Assurance, so CARRIED
OUT, is shown by the abatement of FORTY per Cent. declared
for the ensuing year, upon the Premiums of Members of Five
Years' standing, and which abatement has been computed
on data justifying the expectation of its continuance, at an
equal rate, year by year, throughout the remaining term of
lift.

The Premiums of MEMBERS (who are the only proprietary)
are payable Yearly, Half-yearly, or Quarterly, on the sth of
January, sth of April, sth of July, end bth of October, either
of which several days constitutes the commencement of the
year to Nlx MEER S. Persons, therefore, desirous of entering
the Society, AS MEMBERS, on the sth of January next,

iIIARYLEE

lIS DAY.)

RoEBER l BY A SERVANT.—John Russell, a decent
looking young man. was charged with stealing from his
master, Mr. Hoskins , boot and shoemaker, residing in
Madden-street, Manchester-square, a canvass bag con-
taining a Bank of England note for 501., and three

sovereigns.
It appeared from the evidence of the prosecutor that
on the night of the 26th ult. he placed the bag contain-
ing the money in question in the right-hand pocket of
his coat, and, on the following morning, forgetting
the circumstance, he gave the coat to the prisoner
and directed him to brush it. He then went
out and returned in about an hour, when he found the
prisoner had absconded, and witness never saw him
after until yesterday, when he was brought in custody
to his house by his (prosecutor's) brother. The Bank
note for .501., now produced was the same that he
placed with the three sovereigns in the canvas bag.
The prisoner, when asked what induced him to commit
the robbery, said that the bag fell upon the floor, and
on ascertaining its contents, he had ■ot sufficient reso-
lution to withstand the temptation, and he accordingly
made off with the money.
The prisoner was fully committed for trial.

EV KVING 14: I

The reply the Duke made to an English lady
of high rank, who wished him to be more
exclusive in his parties, does honour to his heart and
judgment. "My house," observed the Duke, " shall
Ise eler open to men of merit, nor will I exclude these
whom you may have condemned by the edict of your
fashionable tribunal." The Duke's Palace in the Corso
is expected to be completed in about a twelvemonth.
At his villa out of the Porta Pia, some hundred men
are now employed. Stately palaces rise up in
proud array, surmounted with statues ; columns,
obelisks, and triumphal arches stand in colossal grandeur,
there are temples and ruins representing the remains of
ancient edifices renowned in history, and in the grounds
are; statues, busts, vases, and sarcophagi ; the orange,
the ilex, and merangoli lend their assistance, whilst the
blue mountains in the distance, studded with the villas
of Trascate and Tivoli, complete this suburban delizia.
The Duke of Bordeaux holds a levee every Sunday ;
itis but thinly attended, none of the corps diplomatique
go. The Prince was received in the most affectionate
manner by the Pope. His Royal Highness is a mild
and intelligent young man, and is considered handsome ;
he is somewhat reserved in his manner, but free from
pride, and so unaspiring that the French Ambassador
has declared to the Cardinal Secretary of State that
his Government are quite easy with regard to the Prince
having any political object in coming to Rome. The
Bishop of Arras has just been created a Cardinal, and
the French Ambassador receives for his Eminence the
congratulatory visits. The Earl of Shrewsbury gave a
grind dinner to the Duke of Bordeaux and suite. Count
Hawks le.Grice had an audience with the Pope, and
presented the drawings of the Thames Tunnel for Mr.
Brunel].

TVIITATION TEA.—Since the great advance
1 on TEA caused by the suspension of Trade with China,
we have discovered that the disgraceful practice of adultera-
tion has increased to an enormous extent. When we inform
the Public that many pretended cheap shops are selling what
they call Tea for less than genuine Tea can be bought at, it must
be obvious to all the unprincipled manner in which it is accom-
plished—how are these parties to sell at a less and pay rent,
taxes, and twenty shillings in the pound, except by adultera-
tion ?—how is it they also sell sugar at a loss? The answer is
obvious—by adulteration. Such being the case, we respectfully
invite the public to try our TEAS, trusting by this time we
have established a confidence that, though not quite so low in
price, they will be found to possess that eminent quality, purity.

There did not appear to be uny business on the Derby
to-day at noon requiring particular notice. L-.)00 to 120 was
accepted on Prince Caradoc, 400 to ti on the colt out of
Rattle's dam, 40 to I was offered against Van Anaburgh
and Rattle's dam, but not accepted.
THE OAKS.-7 to 1, in tens, was offered on the field;
and 12 to 1 against Lampoon. A strong desire was exhi.
bitcd to lay against the latter.

Tor. TURF.—SiXty.OIIO horses are already entered for
, the Liverpool Trades' Cup, for the next July meeting.
EXTRAORDINARY MATett AGAINST TIME.—An extraor.
dinary match against time, made by sonic sporting men of
London and Manehbster, came off on the lloodee, Chester,
on Monday, before a large concourse of spectators. The
terms were as follow;—Mr. Burke, of sporting notoriety,
underto4 to rido two horses 19, 20, and 21 miles, and
take the same number of leaps, within the hour. Fifty
pounds aside depended on each separate event, making the
total stakes 300/. Mr. Byrke commenced his task about
halt past two o'clock, on a capital chcsnut mare, which
did her part remarkably well, and finished it on a very fine
pony, which had, however, a predisposition io " bolting,"
and consequently somewhat imp...led the execution of the
task. Mr. Byrke fiuished his first 19 milts in about 56
minutes and 15 seconds ; the 20th mile was completed in
5S minutes and 30 seconds ; and there being only one
minute and a half to accomplish the last mile, Mr. Byrko
gave up that part of the match. He consequently wins
the wager in the first two partions of the Watch (200/.),
and loses the third (100/. )

PROCEEDINGS.

1. Mr. France to move—That all the cases prepared by
the Solicitors of this Commission, and the Opinions of
Counsel thereon, respecting the rating of public buildiugs,
be submitted to any parties applying for information on the
subject, together with the Acts of Parliament authorizing
Sewers-rates.

2. To resume the consideration of the proceedings on
the summonses served on churches, &c., in the Eastern
Division of the Westminster Sewers.

ANALYSIS of the communications made by the Solicitors of
the several parishes undermentioned, to the Court on the
4th December, 1840 :-•-•
ST. MARTIN'S-IN-THE FIELDS.
Mr. Le Breton, Solicitor to the Parish, stated that he
appeared on behalf of the Churchwardens who were rated
for the parish church. That he begged respectfully to in-
form the Court, that the Churchwardens do not intend to
pay this Sewers-rate, as their desire is that the question
should be tried by some snperier Court. That they will re-
sist any levy as they may be advised by Counsel. That
they consider the Church is not liable, and that the parties
rated are not liable; and that they hope that one cuse
may be allowed to decide the question;
Mr. Le Breton also appeared for St. Michael's Church,
Burleigh-strcet, and Spring Garden Chapel, on similar
grounds.

ST. CLEMENT DANES.

Mr. John Collier, the Vestry Clerk and Solicitor, ap.
peered for the Churchwardens, who were rated for the
parish church, and stated that he had two applications to
mako ; fitst, That he might be allowed to copy the cases
and opinions under which he understood the Commissioners
were acting, and that he would advise parish officers to
submit to them if fairly stated and conclusive ; and,
secondly, That four, five, or six months might be given to
enable him to consider the matter, say lst of May, to give
time to the parish authorities to consult together. He
denied the liability of this property to be rated, and stated
that his point also was, that the Churchwardens were not
liable. He also hoped that one case might be allowed to
settle the whole matter.
ST. GEORGE *AND ST. 011.69, BLOOMSBURY.
Mr. Butt, Solicitor, of the united parish, and separate
parishes, appeared and stated that he attended for all the

EASTERN NEWS.

The following from Constantinople, of the 18th ult.
Ls given in the Sind

" A superior officer, in the service of Greece, has
raised the standard of revolt in Thessaly, and scarcely
has he entered the country than he has rallied 4,000
men. A report is current that he has made himself
master of Volo. This will be quite enough for the
Albanians, whose opinions and inclinations are well
known, to come and join his army. One of the pro-
moters of these troubles is an aide-de-camp of King
Otho, and one of the brothers of Grivas, who were dis-
tinguished in the Greek revolution. This news, which
has reached us through several channels, has not failed
to excite considerable sensation. The Sultan's eldest
daughter is just dead. There has been a oonfl igration
at Therapia, by which 115 houses are burnt. Part of
the English Ambassador's Palace is destroyed, and, if
the wind had continued to blow from the south a few
hours longer, the whole of this Palace, as well as that of
the French Ambassador, would have been annihilated."
Another letter in the Semaphore says :
" A detachment of regular troops, sent from hence to
the camp at Cyprus, rose upon their officers, murdered
them all, and then, landing in the Dardanelles, dispersed
about the country. A stronger force has been sent
out to arrest theni. The Sultan has received Count
Koniximark, the Prussian Envoy, with every distinc-
tion, and sent to him by the Minister of Foreign Af-
fairs the investiture of the Order of Nishan Millar, Ist
class. M. Lopez do Cordova, the Spanish Minister,
on the conclusion of a treaty of commerce between
Spain and the Porte, has presented Heschid Paella
with the Grand Cordon of the Order of Charles 111.
Baron de Sturmer is to be recalled, Baron de Testa
remaining as Austrian Charge d'Affaires.

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC.
REGISTRATION OF LETTERS. __ _

GENERAL POST OFFICE, DEC. 1840.
On and after the 6th January next a system of Registration
will be adopted, which will
.0e applicable to all descriptions of
Letters without distinction, whether they contain coin or arti-
cles of value or not.
The Fee for Registration will be One Shilling, which to-
gether with the Postage, must be paid in advance.
Letters presepted for the purpose of Registration, hearing a
sufficient number of Stamps, will be considered paid Letters,
but the Registration Fee of One Shilling must always be paid
in Money.
In the case of Foreign, Colonial, or Ship Letters, it must
be clearly understood, that Registration cannot extend beyond
the Port of despatch in the United Kingdom, though parties,
if they wish it, may register such letters as far as the Port of
despatch. Letters, however, addressed to France, and Letters
passing through France, are exceptions to this rule, the French
Post- office undertaking to provide for their security till they
shall has • been delivered, if addressed to France and so lone as
they remain in the French Territory, if passing through France.
On Letters of the former description, namely, Letters addressed
to France, Double the French Rate to the Place of Destination
must be paid in addition to the British Rate and the British
Registration Fee ; on Letters passing through France, only the
usual Rates will be taken, in addition to the British Registra-
tion Fee.
As a general rule, no Letter can be received in order to be
Registered, unless it shall be brought to the Post-office, half-
an-hoar before the closing of the Box for the particular Mail,
by which it is to be despatched. It may, however, be neces-
sary to take longer time in some few cases where severe pres-
sure is apprehended.
Small Sums can be remitted through the Post-office, by
means of Money Orders, without risk, at the following rates of
charge, viz. :—Three Pence for any Sum not exceeding Two
Pounds, and Sixpence for any Sum above Two Pounds, and
not exceeding Five Pounds.
With the great convenience thus afforded for transmitting
small Sums at so low a charge, and the power now given of
registering Letters containing value-, it is hoped the Public will
no longer forward Letters of value, except in one or other of
these methods.
If however persons are willing to incur such a risk, should
the articles forwarded be Notes, or Cheques payable at, sight,
they should be cut in halves, and the second halves should not
be despatched until the receipt of the first has been acknowledged.
The numbers, dates, and amounts, should also be carefully
taken. By Command,
W. L. MABERLY, Secretary.
