FRENCH NAVAL MOVEMENTS.

The Paris Ministerial evening papers of Tuesday
night announce that the Ocean, with Admiral de Ro-
samel's flag, and the Genereux, Marengo, and Trident,
of the line, arrived in Toulon harbour on Friday, from
Tunis.
We quote the following from the Temps :—" No-
uffithincgeriss.
Admiralyet
decidedßuuupsosu, as w
niasto
eahavninecrbeeaesue of naval
hesitates'about proposing this measure to the Council,
lest it should render our political situation still more
complicated. Nevertheless as he admits that the num-
ber is insufficient for our ships afloat, even upon a peace
establishment, little doubt is entertained that an aug-
mentation will shortly take place. Under the Restora-
tion there were always from 110 to I'2o capitaines de
vaisseaux, while at present they do not amount to above
80, although 82 at the least are required to fill the
commands of the ships at sea, and do the services at
the ports. Thus 100 are scarcely sufficient, and to
this number we do not doubt they will be raised.
There is still greater need of an increase of capitaines
de corvette, since it would not leave a crowd of excel-
lent officers to grow old in the inferior grades, worn
out in waiting for promotion which they never obtain,
or leaving the service in disgust. These circumstances
are said to have been taken into serious consideration
by Admiral Roussin."
A letter from on board one of the ships just arrived
at Toulon from Tunis is given by the Cour; ier de Lyon.
It says :—" We came from Tunis after a passage of
eight days, but hardly know how our differences with
the Bey have been terminated. He had not returned
from the interior when the Admiral made the signal to
weigh and steer for Toulon. Rumours of war imme-
diately circulated through the ships. We left at Tunis
the Palinure brig of war, and the steam-ship Brazier.
A Turkish corvette was also in the Goletta. While
running along the coast in the afternoon of the 23d,
we heard a brisk cannonade in the direction of Biserfe,
but the Admiral did not think it necessary to make any
inquiry into the cause. We supposed it to be the Bey's
army engaged with some of the refractory tribes.
When thirty leagues from Toulon we met an American
ship of the line making her way to the south. Our
guns have remained loaded during the last twenty days."
" We are informed," says the same journal, " that Ad-
miral de Rosatnel s squadron, reinforced by the Jena
and the Scipion, whose complement is being completed
in all haste, will shorty sail for the Levant, under the
command of Admiral Baudin. Some persons, however,
believe that the chief command of our naval forces in
the Mediterranean will be confided to Admiral
Dupetre."

G UILDHALL.

EMBEZZLEMENT.—A youth aged only 14 years WAS
placed at the bar before Mr. Ald. JOHNSON, charged
with having embezzled various sums of money, the pro-
perty of his master, an extensive salesman in Leadenhall-
market.

Alt.. William Gillon stated that the boy had been in
his employment for some time past, and having sent him
on Monday to collect some money from several parties
who were indebted to him, he staid away until Wednes-
day, when meeting him by chance near the market, in
reply to witness's questions he acknowledged having re-
ceived the money, but said he bought a watch and other
articles with it.
Mr. David Kohler proved having paid the prisoner
the amount of his account with the last witness.

Mr. Gdlon requested that the prisoner might be re-
manded for a short period, as he had reason to believe
there were a great many sums received from his cus-
tomers which had not been accounted for. He also
suspected that the prisoner had fallen in with some of
those wretches who are continually watching to induce
boys employed like him to plunder their masters, and it
might, therefore, be desirable to afford the police an op-
portunity to find out his associates.

He was accordingly remanded for a week, and ordered
to be kept nolitary.
CAUTION TO SHOPKEEPERS.—INFORMERS.-111 x.
Thomas Brown, of the firm of Brown and Sons, medical
glass manufacturers, No. 46, Farringdon-street, appeared
on a summons, at the instance of Atkinson, the com-
mon informer, charging him with causing an obstruction
in the public way, by allowing certain goods to remain
on the footpath longer than was necessary for their re-
moval.

The informer's witness said, that on Tuesday he saw
a number of large crates taken from a van, and laid on
the flagway, opposite Mr. Brown's stores, where they
remained for two hours. Witness then went in, and
warned a warehouseman to have them removed, but
they were allowed to remain in the same situation for an
hour longer, blocking up the way so completely as to
render it impassable.
Mr. Brown pleaded in defence that the goods had
been just denvered from the water side, and were about
being immediately sent into the country. They were
therefore placed on the pavement until their removal to
one of the railway stations.
Mr. Alderman WILSON said merchants and others
should be wade aware of the fact that it is illegal to

essndial, with fidelity : his portraits of the distinguished leaders
of the period are executed with ability, and serne of the miner

throws a strong tone of reality into the narrative."—Atlas.

to be the case ; for one man in the crowd said he was
told they were going to Newport to take Vincent ont of
prison ; but Williams said they did not mean to make any
such attempt. Mr. Frost was proved to have held the
very same language ; but as there was a desire to do some-
thing on behalf of the prisoner Vincent, he permitted
them to go as far as Newport, to show their strength and
numbers, and the deep interest that was felt on the part
of so many persons for Vincent, and then afterwards mak-
ing another appeal for his liberation. It was to see whe-
ther an exhibition on the part of the Chartists would not
benefit him in whose condition they took so lively an in-
terest. I now proceed to those declarations in which the
whole of the case of the Crown is involved. John Han-
ford, who is the second witness examined on the third
day, says that Frost intended, and said they should first
go to tne new poor-house, and take the soldiers and their
arms, and that there was plenty of powder in the town,
which they should take and blow up the bridge, and
stop the Welch mail, which would be a signal to the men
in the North, and that they would begin in the North
on Monday night. You will see how far this story
is involved in the same story as that of Hodge of
stopping the mails. I do not mean to repeat the
observations I made on that subject ; if I did so I
should exhaust all your attention, and strength, without
accomplishing any useful purpose. You can judge of the
justice of the remarks which I have already made on this
point. He adds, that they were to begin on Monday
night. This man underwent a cross-examination from my
Learned Friend. If you recollect, he quibbled at first
about being in custody, about his stopping in the poor-
house—his being bound to stop there—and about his being
let go. He had, he said, a few words with a man about
Frost. He said a person talked to him about Frost—that
he was a person whose name he did not remember—that,
he never remembered his name—that he never knew his
name ; he said that man told him that if be knew anything
of Mr. Frost, and if he were in his place, he would tell it.
Here, Gentlemen, you will perceive that a person is sont

structed to make. I believe, however, your Lordships
on the Bench, several gentlemen at the bar, and I
believe that many of you, Gentlemen, there kr() v the
truth of that which I now open to you. Letters go from
Newport in a coach which does not cross the ferry. They are
then taken up on another coach, which does not cross the
ferry, and they are then taken to Bristol, where there is a
general office where they are sorted and sent to the West
of England. This Mr. Fro,t well knew ; and yet Hodges
would induce you to believe that he El 3 guilty of the ab-
surdity and folly of making a communication to the three
-elegates at Birmingham,. who were to wait for an hour
and a half for the non-arrival of the Welsh mail. Now,
if Newport bridge. was blown up or blown down—if the
letters in it were singed or burned—if Mr Frort got pos-
session of the. bag—still the mail that left Bristcl would
reach Birmingham in a proper hour. I say, that of all the
unconnected and absurd stories that everwere made for
the purpose of being presented to intelligent men, this is
the most absurd; and yet it is by its means that you are
called upon to fix upon the prisoner at the bar the highest
crime of which he can be guilty against society. Having,
I trust, then effectually removed this charge of the in-
tention to blow up the bridge, and thereby giving a signal
to Birmingham, Manchester, and the North of England for
a general riot, I proceed to make another remark. I think
it was said that when this occurred it was to be known at
Birmingham and London on Monday night. There is an
absurdity in this very statement. The mail was not to
ave tilt the evening of that day, I believe not until Tue.-
day ; this shows you the absurdity of the idea of stopping
the mail. It only shows you that the remainder of the
statement is perfectly inconsistent, and will ultimately
turn out as being utterly without foundation. lam re-
minded that this was no part of HoJges's, but part of Har-
ford's, the twenty-eighth witness. He .tated that the
mails were to be stoppod, and that the information was
to arrive in Birn i igham on Monday night. I should
have suspected if there were any foundation for this
r art as connected with Hodges's statement, that my
L arned Friend would have proved on tl o part of the
Crown something showing that there were preparations in
Birmingham, or that something was done by the people of
the north of England to correspond with the supposed riots
at Newport. According to the rule of one of your Lord-
ships this declaration of Hodges would have opened to

Edward Cooke and Thomas Evans, two boys, w.re
placed at the
bar, Cooke charged with stealing one
slvere
;za
and four shillings, the property of Charles
vi'‘ rand
Evans with feloniously receiving the same,
knowit:g it to have been stolen. Cooke pleaded guilty.
It appeared from the evidence of Ann Baker, the wif.o.
of the prosecutor, that they resided at Simmon's 16w,
Chelsea, and that on the 18th of September last they
were moving their goods, and Cooke was employed by
the person moving them to assist. A desk, in which
was the property in question, was missed, and when
the prosecutrix again saw it the money was gone. She
accused Cooke of stealing it, when he said that he had
given the money to Evans. She went to Evans, accom-
panied by Cooke, and, alter EOlllO conversation, he took
her into the Court, and from the roof of the privy pro-
duced a parcel containing the money.
Mr. C. PHILLIPS defended Evans, and suggested
that he did not know what the parcel contained which
had ben given him by Cooke.

THE MAN WITH THE CARPET BAG. —I
quence of this day being appointed for the fu
ing of the charges against this person, w
quired so much notoriety amongst the hot
keepers of the City, crowds assembled in
long before the hour for commencing business
On the prisoner, named John Gough, bein,
at the bar, the first witness called was
Mr. Alderson, of the Woo!pack, in Hart-street; who
stated that, on the 21st of last month, the witness called
at his house, and engaged a bed for the night, after
which, and having taken some refreshment, he
went out, leaving a carpet-bag, with some
things in it. At night the prisoner took the bag
up to the bed-room, and in the morning no notice was
taken of his going out with it in his hand, although he
had not paid his bill. Some days afterwards Mrs. Al-
dztrson found that a trunk in her bed-room had been
opened, and a quantity of wearing apparel stolen there-
from. Subsequently one of her gowns was found to
have been p:edged with a pawnbroker, Mr. Upsall, of
Barbican, through whose means the prisoner was taken.
O e • gowns and articles of dress belonging to Mrs. Al-
derson, were also fully time 1 to the prisoner, who had
sold some and pawned others.
A number of similar charges were brought against
the prisoner, when he was fully committed for trial.

MURDER OF LO

At Marlborough-street Police Court this morning, prior
to the commencement of the hearing of the night charges,
the Inspector of the C division on duty

during yesterday afternoon Inspector Tillman, who Still
remains in charge of the house where the murder was per-
petrated, had succeeded in tracing out that his Lordship's
watch, stolen at the time of the murder, Was last cleaned
by Messrs. Aubert and lilftenbengt.r, watchmakers, of
Regent-street ; and from that firm a particular description
of it has been obtained, and hand-b.:ls had been circulated
to the silversmiths and pawnbrokers in the enetroliOlis and
its eny.irons. The two female servants and the valet rof
main in the house, but are under the strict surr*:illaneo of

was commenced this Morning. Last night the body was,
placed in the leaden inner coffin. The funeral :Will take

Sir,—Having been afflicted with bad eyes for a long time, a friend
who had received benefit from using your Eye Snuff recommended
it to me. I have taken the contents of your 2s. 'ld. canisters, and am
happy to say my sight has improved; the weakness and dimness is
removed ; and, Sir, it is my wish that you make this known for the
good of the public.—Your's, GEO. SMrni.

March 3, 13411.
Sir,—l have been afflicted for many years with a severe pain in my
head, attended with a dimness of sight and darting pains in my QTre,
for which I have had the first medical advice ; indeed, I have taken
large quantities of medicine, without receiving any relief; but I am
now delighted to say, with truth, that ever since using your valuable
Eye Snuff', which I have taken copiously—that is, a 2s. 4d. canister
weekly, I am quite free from those excruciating pains, and can rend
the smallest print, although lam in the 05th year of my age. This
is my third testiniony, and shall be most happy to give it to you or
to any respectable inquirer at my residence, as under.—I remain,
gratitude, Sir, your obedient humble Servant,

MUNICIPAL CORPORATION BILL

The Marquis of LONDONDERRY presented a pet
tion from the Guild of St. Bartholomew's, in Dublin,
against the Irish Municipal Ccrporation Bill. The Noble
Marquis expressed his conviction that the Bill would
never pass their Lordships' House.
The Nlarquts of LANSDOWNE laid upon the table
the Report of the Select Committee on Tithe Commuta-
tion, which was ordered to be 'printed. Also a petition
from the Baptist Ministers of London and Westminster
against the growth of opium in India.
The Earl of GALLOWAY presented a petition from
the borough of Woodstock, against the repeal of the
Corn-laws.
The Marquis of WESTMEATH moved that the evi-
dence last night. laid before the House in reference to the
Corporationi of Dublin be printed..
The Marquis of NORMANDY said tqat Ito. would. upt
object. id the. printing of the evidenee, it -abs Igifitiliilfar.
qui, pressed hitvmotion. At the *erne time be did not see
what good purpose it would srrve ; and Abe •Noble Mar-
quis ought to bear in mind that the reform of the Irish
Corporations did not depend upon the conduct of ,the Cor-
poration of Dublin alone.
The Marquis of WE FTM E ATH said that the evidence
would show the party feelng of the Commissioners. It
would show that they were all, except those that were
dead I (Laugh!er)—partisans of the Government. In
feict, Ministers had provided well for every one of them.
The Earl of MOUNTCASHEL moved for a return
of the Address of the House of Assembly of Upper Ca-
nada, imploring her Majesty to encourage emigration to
that colony from the United Governments. The Noble
Lord at the same time presented a petition from the Ca.
nada Land Company, praying that a sum of 6,0004 which
that corporation owed the Government, might be expended
upon the encouragement of emigration.
Tha Marquis of LANSDOWNE said the papel re-
ferred to by the Noble Earl had been already produced.
Lord MOUNTCASHEL said if such were the case
his motion would be of course unnecessary, but he had
been informed such was not the case,

FURTHER PARTICULARS,

The cause of the intense anxiety displayed by Cour-
voisier, the valet of the ill-fated noblemen, when told
tkat all the chimneys and water-closets in the house had
been examined, with the exception of the water•closet
attached to the back-parlour is we fear, now explained
by the workmen, who have been employed the whole of
the day in carefully examining the latter, and their ex-
ertions were at length crowned with success in discover-
ing several articles of the lost property. They are still
pursuing their search with unremitting zeal ; and there
is no doubt but they will succeed in recovering the
whole of the missing articles, which, it is hoped, will lead
to the discovery of the perpetrator of this horrible act.
A good deal of jealousy had existed, it is stated, in
the bosom of Conroisier, in consequence of the kindness
shown by his Lordship towards his late valet Ellis
(who is now in the service of Lord Mansfield), who
was a great favourite of his master, and with whom he
had lived upwards of ten years. Ellis, by his Lord-
ship's orders, frequently went to the house to assist, and
whenever he did so was always liberally paid by his
Lordship. Ellis having absented himself from the
house fur some days his Lordship ordered his valet,
Conroisier, to desire Ellis to call. This mandate, how-
ever, the valet Conroisier neglected, froin motives, it is
said, of jealousy.
The following is a letter from Ellis to the butler at
No. 23, opposite :

" May 7, 1840.
" DEAR GEORGE,—This morning I gave the newspaper,
with the account of the inquest, and likewise a note from
Mr. Wing, the Secretary of the Russell family, to Lord
Mansfield. After reading thw note, his Lordship handed
it to me to read, which corripliinewed me highly upon my
past services and continued attention to Lord William
Russell. Lord Mansfield is really very kind and consi-
darate, arid is very anxious that a►► suspiciim should be re.
moved from my shoulders. flow thankful lam that I left
London before the dreadful deed was committed.

METROPOLITAN INFIRMARY for the
CURE of STRICTURES of the URETHRA,
GONORRIHEA, GLEETS, SYPHILIS, &c. This Insti-
tution is closed, but as the Surgeon of it feels assured that
there are hundreds suffering under the diseases, to the cure of
which it was especially devoted, who would gladly avail them-
selves of his professional assistance, rather than place them-
selves under the charge of chemists, or, worse still, have re-
course to any of the dangerous and inefficient nostrums daily
aitertised, he has made arrangements to see patients at his
own residence, at the mere expense to the patient of the neces-
sary medicine. Thus persons of limited means have now an
opportunity of securing for themselves a mode of treatment
that, whilst it is based on experience, is regulated by the pecu-
liarities which their own cases and constitutions may require ;
thereby freeing themselves from the absurdities and datie.ers
that wait upon the employment of one kind of medicine for all
forms of these diseases, without regard to these essential
particulars.
