CLOSE OF THE MATTHEWSON AND COOKE SUB-
SCRIFTION.—On Wednesday a meeting of the committee ap-
pointed for the purpose of procuring the discharge of Mat-
thewson and Cooke from the 7th Hussars, was held at the
house of the treasurer, Mr. George Walter, Blue Posts, Shoe-
lane; Mr. Behenna in the chair. After some conversation,
it was moved and seconded that, as the amount of subscrip-
tion in the hands of the treasurer, through the kindness of
the public and the exertions of the committee, had now
reached the sum of 501. and a few odd shillings, that the
amount in hand be forthwith handed to Thomas Wakley,
Esq., M.P., for the purpose of carrying out the objects
originally contemplated by the committee. After a vote of
thanks to the chairman and to the treasurer for their several
services, the body was dissolved.
BuNN v. LIND.-This action has been made by the
plaintiff a special jury cause. It cannot be tried before the
sittings after Michaelmas Term, which sittings will not
commence before December next. As already stated, the
plaintiff has laid his damages in the declaration, for the al-
leged breach of an engagement signed by Mademoiselle Lind
to sing at Drury.lane Theatre, at 10,0001.; and on the part
of the defendant several pleas have been pleaded, in which
pleas the alleged agreement forms, of course, the principal
feature. The plaintiff has demurred to one of the pleas, and
the demurrer has been set down for argument in Michaelmas
Term—namely, on the 9th of November. The
counsel en-
gaged in this memorable case on the part of the plaintiff are
Sir F. Kelly, Mr. Cockburn, Q.C., and Mr. Peacock • and for
the defendant, the Attorney-General, Sir F Thesiger' and
Mr. noggins. The action has been brought in the Court of
Queen's Bench.

Letters from Marseilles announce the suspension
of the house of Rayolles and Bellone, very largely engaged
in the corn trade, and of whose solidity no previous doubt
had been entertained. At Trieste and Genoa also some dis-
quiet appears to prevail in consequence of the speculative
commitments which are known to have been entered into.

BE
Alarns g rumours - iat .to the state of His.
health the King of , Belgians. The Union Aro-
;taro gue of Paris dishes a letter from Brussels, in
whic it is st
rfri,
.hat his Majesty's case is hopeless,
that he is afflL with a complaint in the liver, and
that the German waters, so far from ameliorating his
condition, greatly aggravated the complaint. We find
nothing in the Brussels papers to confirm these reports.
On the contrary, the King, Queen, and the Royal Family
are (I,:scribed as pursuing their daily avocations as if
nothing were the matter, and the Independence Beige of
Monday says that his Majesty was, on the following
Sunday, to attend the public inauguration of the gal-
le:les of, t. Hubert; and the Emancipation says that thee
King is at:•out to pay a visit to London.
Belgium acipears to he on the eve of a change of Mi-
nistry. The J:ndependenee says:--" We have but little
to add today to what we rave already stated relative to
the Ministerial situation, but. we can confirm the leading
fact—the retirement of the Cabinet. Nothing, however,
is yet known as to the precise period of that event, and
• tas little as to the men who are to compose the new
just
Cabinet."
