QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.)

BIRD V. THE EARL OF lIUNTINGTO'WER.
Mr. HOGGINS said this was an action to recover the
amount of a bill of exchange for 2,0001., drawn by G. F.
Byng, at two months after date, and accepted by the de-
fendant. The bill was dated the 9th July, 1841; and the
defence was that the defendant, at the time he accepted
the bill, was an infant under age, and that the Bill was
obtained by fraud, and without any consideration.
The signature of the Earl of Huntingtower to the
bill was proved by Mr. Tyson, a clerk in Claud, Scott
and Company's Bank. ,
Mr. THESIGER addressed the Jury for the defendant,
stating that the bill had been accepted by him for the
accommodation of Captain Byng two days before he
came of age on a blank stamp.

Maria 'hlizabeth Countess of Dysart (who was ac-
commodated with a seat upon the bench) being sworn,
deposed. I was married in 1819 to the Earl of Dysart,
then Mr. Manners. We were married at Marylebone
Church., The Earl of lluntingtower, the defendant, is
my only son. He was born on the 4th of July, 1820,
and came of age on the 4th of July, 1841.
Her Ladyship then retired.
Thomas Holbrook Coyle—l live at Barn's College,
Brompten. I ani in the habit of negotiating bills for
,gentlemen of fortune. I know the defendant, and I
know Captain Byng, who is the son of Lord Strafford.
I recollect Captain I3yng calling on me' on Friday, the
2d of July in this year. He then showed me the present
bill, which was blank, with the words " Accepted,
Huntingtowsr," in red ink. There was nothing else

ADEN.

Our intelligence from Aden has, in the course of the
month been both copious and interesting ; a few selec-
tions from it will be found under its proper head. There
has been' a fire within the lines, which destroyed a
great deal of property, and without the lines there has
been one attack, or supposed attack, from the Arabs
on the garrison, and one attack from the garrison on
the Arabs. We have called the first an attack, or
supposed attack, because there really is a doubt whether
we fired on enemies desiring to assail us or on fugitives
seeking our assistance. The attack from the garrison
was genuine enough ; the troops marched forty miles
and blew up an old house with nobody in it. It is sin-
gular management, surely, which can neither conciliate
'the friendship nor adequately chastise the hostility of the
Arabs. But of all places in the Company's dominions
the political management of Aden is, perhaps, the most
singular.

LONDON:
MONDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1841.

The most important news brought by the Over-
land Mail from India is the anticipated rupture
with the King of Burmah. THARAWADDIE has
never forgiven the thrashing given him by the
English in 1824-5, and gladly seizes the period
of our conflict with the Chinese, to be
revenged upon us. But the Bengal Govern-
ment is not so ignorant of the intentions of
THARAWADDIE as to be taken unawares. Lord
AUCKLAND had a force of two thousand five
hundred bayonets, and twenty-five heavy guns and
howitzers at Moulmein, while an equal number
of me:i and guns were ordered to reinforce them.
The Burmese had an immense number of gun-
boats on the Irrawaddy, but it was supposed
that two ships of war, two armed schooners, and
eight excellent steamers, at the command of the
Bengal Government, would make short work of
sinking the whole of them.

It was generally supposed that Mr. BEAUMONT
SMITH would plead guilty; his doing so, there-
fore, only so far disappointed the public as it
has completely stifled those disclosures which the
examination of witnesses and the defence were
expected to elicit. Why was it supposed that
Mr. SMITH would plead guilty, when our law
offers every criminal, defended by a sagacious
Counsel, so many chances of escape? He had
engaged Sir THOMAS WILDE to defend him ; that
Learned Gentleman is known never to give up a
cause ; it could not have been anticipated that lie
would recommend a plea ofguilty, and the gene-
ral anticipation must, therefore, have been founded
on the circumstances of the case itself. The pub-
lic had marked how it had been secretly inquired
into at the Home-office; what lame e•-•idence was
produced against SMITH at Bow-street, and HA-
PALLO at the Mansion-house; and there was a
general suspicion that strong motives existed
somewhere for huddling up the case as closely
and snugly as possible. Hence the general be-
lief that SMITH would plead guilty, in order to
withdraw his case as speedily as possible from the
public eye.

If such suspicions existed before the trial,
what passed on Saturday has confirmed them.
Mr. SMITH declared
" I never derived benefit,
even to the small extent necessary, to relieve me
from my comparatively trifling embarrassments,
and I am at this moment in debt for money
actually borrowed from sources unconnected with
Exchequer bills, to pay off my original incum-
brances." Who has derived benefit, then ? Who

SURREY THEATRE.

Last night Mr. Davidge produced to a most crowded
house, an adaptation by Mr. Haines, of Mr. H. Ains-
worth's " Tower of London." Mr. Haines has adhered
very closely to the original work, and the Proprietor has
exerted himself to do every justice to the piece, by sparing
no expense upon the dresses and scenery, both of which
gave great satisfaction to his numerous patrons. The actors
generally were " well up" in their parts—more so than
usual in new pieces, and all went off well, though many
seemed to regret that they saw so little of that esta-
blished favourite Mr. W. Smith. Where all did so well
it would be almost invidious to particularise
any, but we cannot avoid noticing the exertions
of Mrs. If. Vining as Queen Jane, Miss Grant as
Queen Mary, and Mr. Saville in the part
of Cuthbert Cholmondely, whose acting greatly tended to
the safety of the piece. Gog and Magog were repre-
sented in all their length, but, luckily, they had little to
do, for, although their size created a laugh, it. was evi-
dently painful to the majority to witness the precarious
position of the upper man. The scenery and " Tableaux"
were exceedingly good, and Mr. Saville announced the
repetition of the piece every night till further notice
amidst loud cheering.

GUILDHALL.

Daniel Dagenam, the proprietor of the house, No. 1,
Foundry-court, Cripplegate, was charged before Alder-
man Piric, with selling spirits on his premises without a
license.

City policeman 146, said that on Sunday morning,
between three and four o'clock, hearing considerable
noise and rioting in the prisoner's house,'he applied for
admission, and on entering found about twenty persons
drinking, smoking, and singing ; three women were
standing behind a table, under which were two stone
jars, one holding about a gallon, and filled with gin, the
other containing upwards of two gallons of beer, both
of which he seized and brought to the station-house.
The prisoner, in reply to hip, (witness) acknowledged
tisit he was the landlord of the house.

Inspector Harrisson stated that after the licensed
houses in the neighbourhood had complied with the law
by closing their doors, this den, which was frequented
by the most dissolute class of persons, was open for
all who chose to enter, and gin sold at 21. a quarteru
more than what the licensed victuallers charged. It was
an absolute nuisance to the surrounding inhabitants.
Mr. Alderman ham ordered him to pay a fine of
or be imprisoned for one month.

Sir,—l have been a sufferer for seven years, both eves being
so swollen as to cause blindness. Among the many Medical
Gentlemen who attended me was the famous oculist, Dr.
Alexander ; indeed. I do believe my case was beyond all their
skill. " Physic, Bleeding, Blistering, with a seten, of all
kinds of Lotions, but no relief," till chancing one day, being led
by your house in 39, Broad-street, Bloomsbury, my guide
inquired if I had tried your Eye-Snuff, on which I purchased
a Is. 3d. Canister, opened it in the shop—took some, and was
greatly relieved before I reached my home. I car, with truth
assert, and make oath if required to do so, that it was your Eye-
Snuff cured me. Shal be happy to answer any inquiry.
I am, Sir, yours gratefully,

was charged before Alder-
man Pitie, with selling spirits on his premises without a
license.
oc'legate,
City policeman 1,0, said that on Sunday morning,
between three and four o'clock, hearing considerable
noise and rioting in the prisoner's house,
he applied for
admis,ion, and on entering found about twenty persons
ng ; threei
drinking, smoking, and singing
0.-women were
standingbehind a table, under which were two stone
jars, one holding about a gallon, and filled with gin, the
other containing upwards of two gallons of beer, both
of which he seized and brought to the station-house.
The prisoner, in rt'piYto his (witness) acknowledged
that he was the landlord of the house.
Inspector Harrison stated that after the licensed
houses in the ncighboUrhood had complied with the law
by closing their doors, this den, which was frcquel:ted
by the most dissolute class of persons, was open for
all who chose to enter, and gin sold at 2d. a quarters
more than what the licensed victuallers charged. It was
an absolute nuisance to the surrounding inhabitants.
Mr. Alderman nom ordered him to pay a line of
5:. or be imprisoned for one month.

Some of the London papers are, we observe,
still quarrelling about the object of Baron Mounier's
mission to this country. We stated, upon his first arrival,
that the purport of his visit was to announce to the Eng-
lish Government Louis Philippe's intention of marrying
his youngest son to the Queen .of Spain. We now repeat
the statement. That was the only object of his mission. We
'have it from an authority which cannot bo contradicted,......

BELGIUM.

(From Galignuni's Illessengcr.
MINISTERIAL CRISIS IN BEM: IU Nl.—The Senate at Brus-
sels has been debating for some days on the budget, and on
the general policy of the actual Belgian. Cabinet. A long and
important sitting took place on Monday, at which Count H.
do Merode and two other Members opposed the policy of the
Cabinet, and declared themselves in favour of a Ministerial
modification. The Senate adjourned that day without coming
to an., decision. On Tuesday the debate was resumeJ, and
a personal discussion ensued between M. de Pelichy and the
Ministers. Afterwards an address to the King was read,
praying his Majesty to modify the composition of the Cabinet-
The following is the text of the proposed address:—
"Sire—The nationality of Belgium was founded on the
union of divergent opinions, combining for one common object.
The maintenance of this union can alone admit of the develop-
ment of the numerous elements of prosperity possessed by the
kingdom, and gurantee its political existence. The deplorable

of the inability of the legislative assemblies to occupy them-
selves with the real wants of the nation, when parties become
more and more estranged from each other instead of being re-
conciled. Such a stags of things, Sire, fetters the regular pro-
gress of Government, and injures the dearest interests of Bel-
gium. It is on this point that the Senate has particularly
found it necessary to occupy itself. Being an essentially
mediating power, its efforts will constantly be directed
to reconcile contending opinions, and to promote gene-
ral interests. The Senate considers it to be its duty to
call the attention of your Majesty to a position whence,
real dangers may arise. It places full confidence in that high
wisdom, that impartiality, to which men of all opinions take
pleasure in rendering just homage. It has a full ccconviction.that whatever may be the means your Majesty. may think fit to
employ in putting a stop to these disastrous divisions, all wise
and moderate men will rally round you, and thus render to
the monarchy, which is elevated above all party-feeling,
support necessary to enable it to fulfil the mission assigned to
it. Your Majesty may rely upon the unalterable devotedness
of the Senate and its loyal concurrence in your enlightened
views, Sire, for the union and prosperity of the country."
This proposition was signed by Baron Dubois de Nevele, the
Baron de Peuthy, M. Van Sachegem, Count Vanderstraeten
tie Ponthos, M. DI-loop, the Count de Brieg, Baron Della-
faille, the Baron de l'elichy Van Huerne, M. de Rouille, the
