THE LUDLOW CASE.

(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)
I hasten to communicate to you by this day's post,
what has been within these last two hours discovered
at. the Angel Inn. The ostler of the Angel had been
to look after a horse•scraper that had been missing for
some time ; in his search he found, i❑ an old grate in
the brewhouse, two pairs of stockings that appeared to
be much stained, but whether from blood or not I can,
not say. Some medical men are of opinion that the
stains arc from blood that has been attempted to be
washed out, others imagine that it is passible that the
stains might be there from wearing new shoes. I have
seen all the policemen who searched the premises after
the occurrence, but none of them examined the place
where these stockings were found. Two pieces of news-
papers were found in the same place, of the date of
the Ist of September, a fortnight after the occurrence ;
they are mildewed as well as the stockings. I inclose
you a part of one of them ; the one is a Bath paper,
the other a Glasgow. The stockings were on one side
of the grate, and the papers appeared to be on the
other. The hastier does not consider that the stockings
were wrapped up in the paper. If they had, this cir-
cumstance would have taken away all suspicion that
they belonged to Misters. I assure you this discover),
has caused a great sensation in the town ! the authori-
ties are very busy at present in further investigations.

DOUBLE 'PATENT FERRYIAN FIL-
TER INKSTAND.4-PERRY and CO. having
effected considerable improvement iri their FILTER INK-
' STAND,. have now 'the pleasure to announce'that a. Second
Patent has been granted to them for such improvement, which
they have united with their First Patent, -under the title
of " DOUBLE PATENT PERRYAN FILTER INK-
STAND." The eulogy beitowed on the Patent Filter Ink-
stand by the' public Journals, and the preference obtained for
them over the common Inkstands, was almost unprecedented.
The present novel and scientific, method of supplying Clear Ink
to the Dipping Cup, and returning it into the reservoir, is ex-
ceedingly simple, the action being now performed by merely
lifting up the lid to obtain a supply; and shutting it down, to
withdraw it ; in this state it cannot overflow, whatever may .be
the change of temperature, and it is protected from dust or
other injury in any place or climate. When the inkstand is
filled; it is always ready for use, and the writer will have• a
regular and daily supply of Clear Ink for four or six months.

Dealers in such articles.

ALMA

1840

STATIONERS' ALMANAC
This is a sheet almanac, with a beautiful view
of the New Royal Exchange as planned by Mr. Win.
Tice. It is a magnificent oblong structure or the
Corinthian order, with a portico supported by eight
columns, looking towards the south-west, and a
tower resembling that of the old Royal Exchange
placed about the middle of the building. In addi-
tion to the calendar, which has all the holidays and
remarkable days marked in red, it contains a list of
bankers, law terms, and returns for 1811, lists of
the chief officers of state, and public offices, of the
acuity and common-law judges, and much useful
information respecting the General Post-office. The
plate is uncommonly well executed, and will form a
handsome ornament in a room or country house.
This almanac has been printed for the Company of
Stationers, at the Chiswick press, by C. Wilit-
tingham.
Another of a similar description, and bearing the
same title, has been printed and published by J.
and W. Robins, Tooley-street. It differs, how-
ever, in several respects ; and, in addition to the
usual intelligence furnished by such publications,
it gives a list of the Foreign Ministers at the Bri-
tish Court, and the Consuls resident in London,
with the name and address of each. It is also
ornamented with a fine view, representing Windsor
Castle, and the Queen and Prince Albert, with
their suite, walking o►► the stern terrace.

A POLITICAL ALMANAC.-
This curiosity is prepared by R. J. Richardson,
and published by John Cleave. Besides the Ca-
lendar, it shows the salaries, pensions, sinecures,
emoluments, places, annuities, privileges, and powers
of the army, navy, church, law courts, civil
list, courts of commission, and ethers feeding on
the taxes ; the connection between Charch and
State, together with the value of seven hundred and
forty-five good livings in the gift of a few Peers,
" A few pickings out of the taxes" exhibits some
cuzious items. For instance, the ex-Minister Lord
Sidmouth has cost the country since 1823 42,2701.,
the ex-Chaneellor of the Exchequer (Vansittart)
has since that period received 35,835/. 3s. 34d.
Mr. Croker, the ex-Secretary to the Admiralty,
13,663/. 15s. 100 (how particular about the far-
things !)the King of Hanover, since he left the coun-
try 153,365/. 7s. Bd. ; the Queen Dowager in three
years has cost the nation, 300,000/. (independent
of palaces and parks), and the King of the Bel-
gians somewhat more than a million sterling. Royalty
it must be admitted is not to be had for a trifle.

TRENHOLME V. LOW.

This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a but-
cher, carrying on business at Stoke Newington, to &e-
-cover a sum of 351., for meat supplied to the defendant,
a cow-keeper. The defence was, that the plaintiff had
purchased cattle from the defendant, and that the balance
really due was only a few pounds.
Mr. Platt appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. The-
sivr for the defendant.
The delivery of the plainaf's bill was proved, and
there being some difficulty about the proof of checks
alleged to have been paid by the defendant to the plaintifi
on account, the Jury by consent found a verdict for the
plaintiff for 351., subject to a reference.

SPAIN.

MADRID, DEC. 2.

It appears positive that the Government is going to
establish at Bergara, Tolosa, and St. Sebastian, Judges
of Premiere Instance, on the same footing as they were
in year 1822, under the constitutional regime. The
Government acts modify by degrees the fueros of the
provinces.
ei.The Corresponsal says :—" 'We have received with
the Catalonian correspondence that of the Balearic
Islands. Those islands were enjoying the most perfect
tranquillity, but the alarming rumours that had been
spread respecting the intentions of France on those
islands, and the eternal questions of individual interest
brought into play by the Junta of Palma, had somewhat
agitated the minds of the peaceable and loyal inhabit-
ants of those Mediterranean possessions. Two points
in our Barcelona adviees deserve to rivet the attention
of our readers and all Spaniards who are interested in
the well-being of their country. We allude to the im-
positions exacted in Catalonia for the maintenance of
the troops, and of the distressing aspect of the Catalo-
nian manufacturing interests."
The same journal has the following extract of a
letter from Mahon of the 12th of November :
" The augmentation which our garrison has just ex-
perienced is insignificant, but it is stated that it is to
be carried to 14,000 men. A few days ago the French
corvette, Victorieuse, arrived in our river from Palma.
The report is circulated that one of her officers left for
Toulon, with the only object of transmitting to his Go-
vernment the observations which have been made cn the
Mfijorea and Minorca Islands. It may be true, but
there is no appearance here of any preparations being
made for lodging and victualling such a great number
of troops."
The Eco del Comercio approves of the determination
taken by the Regency relative to the fucros of the Na-
varre. That journal observes, " that, if an undertand-
ing is effcctcd with the Navarre on that delicate ques-
ion, the greatest difficulty has yet to be overcome.
The four provinces form a sort of federation, and which
have regulations between themselves, that, if any or
either of them effcct an arrangement with the Govern-
ment, it- is not the less cnmpellcd to conform to the
principles ►which govern their respective relations."

POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTION.

Yesterday we we were favoured with a private view-
of this useful Institution, when a vast crowd of
Lords and Ladies, and lovers of arts and science,
attended to see the improvements made in the esta.. I
blishment since it was closed, about eight weeks
ago. Several new rooms have been added to the
building, and at each end a spacious gallery. One
and is provided with a com-
of the rooms is fitted up as a lecture room for ex-
perimental.),A se-
cond is adapted for the exhibition of geological
i iete and a
inp philosophy,le apparatus for the purpose.
models, and is well fitted for the purpose. The
model shown at present is that of the Underchfr hi
the Isle of Wight, which we noticed yesterday. The
galleries, rooms, and staircases, are adorned with a
variety of paintings, statues, models,
and other
rare objects of art. One represents the Ca:.tbn
River from the City to its embouchure in the
well executed.
Chinese sea, and is veryAs for-
merly, the canals and circular basin in the great
hall are covered with models of every description of
naval architecture, from the Chinese junk to a British
ship of the line. Here also is exhibited a model of a
ship fitted up with the patent pneumatic marine pre-
server, the object of which is to prevent ships from
sinking, and also to raise those sunk, : I
Without loss
of cargo. Mr. Bakewell, the patentee, explained
the invention, and showed by a model how the
sunken vessel could be raised by injecting .air into
the interstices which are to be formed round the
hulls of vessels built on his principle. But we have
not space to describe one-tenth of the objects ,-ix -
hibited, and that, too, would require more time
and better opportunities than could be obtained
yesterday. From ten o'clock, but chiefly in the
afternoon, the establishment was crowded to excess,
not fewer than four thousand persons having visited
it in the course of the day. Among the assem-
bled company were several of the Foreign Ambas-
sadors ; also Viscount Duncannon, Lady Jodiell,
Lord Nugent, Sir Astley Cooper, the Marquis of
Winchester, Sir Richard
Jenkins, Sir George
Staunton, Bart., Sir John Scott Lillie, the Earl
of Wicklow, Sir Peter Laurie, Lord Porchester,
Lord Gage, the Earl and Countess of Beauchamp,
Sir Wm. Baynes, Bart , Mr. Stevenson, the Ame-
rican Minister, with many other persons of fashion
and distinction.
The Institution will be, open for the public to-
morrow, and we confidently trust that the great ex-
ertions made by the Directors, and chiefly by Mr.
Sievier, so well known for his useful inventions and
various attainments, will meet with clue reward.

send a deputation to form part of the grand funeral pro-

cession.
Notice has been issued from the Bureau des Beaux
Arts, in the :office of the Minister of the Interior, that
the demands for tickets to view the ceremony of the
funeral of Napoleon having already surpassed the num-
ber of places to be allotted, no further applications will
be received.
A letter from Cherbourg states that, since last Wed-
nesday evening, cannon have been fired there every
quarter of an hour. The Phare de la Manche
says—" Ever since Thursday the Belle Poole
has been crowded with people anxious to view the
coffin of Napolean. It fills nearly the whole of the
Chapelle Ardente, but the splendid sarcophagus made at
Paris is not exposed, being still inclosed in the
case of oak made to preserve it from injury on being
carried on board, and in its subsequent removals. The
whole of the coffins from a mass weighing 4,4001b5.
They remain covered with a pall of violet velvet. At
the head is placed an Imperial crown with a crape veil,
and at the foot is suspended a gilt lamp. The whole of
the roof and sides of the chapel are hung with velvet
sprinkled with silver stars, and ornamented with silver
cords, fringes, and tassels.. The chamber is lighted with
six lanterns, one at each corner of the coffin, and one on
against the bulkhead of the officer's berth. It is the two sides of the altar, which is placed behind
sup-
ported by two large gilt eagles. The whole produces a
rich and imposing effect.
Captain Penaud, aide-de-camp of the Minister of
Marine, has left Paris for Cherbourg, charged with a
special mission relative to the transport of the remains
of Napoleon the Emperor. Captain Penaud is to
place himself under the orders of the Prince de Joinville.

NAPOLEON'S REMAINS.

(From the Paris Papers of Wednesday.)
" The duty with which the Prince de Joinville is
charged," says the Debats, " does not terminate until
the remains of Napoleon are deposited in the Invalides,
His Royal Higl n ,ss, therefore, will have the command
of the Normandie steamer and the whole of the escort
until the rrrival at Courbevoie. On reaching the bridge
of Neuilly the Prince will come on shore, superintend
the landing and follow the procession, at the head of
400 sailors. His Royal Highness is instructed not to
permit any communication with tne steamer during her
passage, nor to sutler any one on board to land, ex-
cept for provisions."
'the C'onstitutionnel states that numerous Poles, in-
cluding several general officers who served under Napo-

There are thirteen individuals in Guipuzcoa, who are ex.
citing the population to revolt, and you, Sir, are
amongst them. I now warn you for the last time ;
if you do not at once lay aside your schemes I shall
proceed to the provinces, and if you force me to go
there I shall act so as, in less than 24 hours after my
arrival, the entire 13, including you, Senor Olana, will
be shot by your own countrymen. Remember what I
am now saying, and report it faithfully. This is my
answer, you may now retire." So saying, he bowed
Olana to the door, and ordered an Aide-de-camp to
conduct the Commissioner to the gate of the Palace.
Olana was scarcely recognised by his friends, who
were waiting for him, so pale, so terrified, and so haggard
was his appearance. His friends were obliged to support
him to the nearest cafe, where he was obliged to remain
some time to recover his presence of mind.
He left Madrid by post the same day, and travelfed
without stopping until he reached Tolosa. He there
communicated the result of his interview to the Depu-
tetion, and the next morning set out for Bayonne, where
be is now staying, not feeling himself safe on Spanish
soil.—The Five per Cents. were at 26a for cash.

LONDON:
FRIDAY,, DECEMBER 18. 1840.

The disposition which prevails amongst certain
classes to censure the master manufacturers for the
growth of a town population, now plunged in po-
verty, prone to discontent, and, as is said, desti-
tute of moral and religious culture, of which we
noticed an instance on Wednesday, and of which
instances may he met with in the Tory journals al-
most every day, induces us to suppose that we may,
with advantage to truth, place before our readers
some further reflections in defence of the masters.
'To all questions there are at least two sides, and
we must explicitly state that we look at this ques-
tion only as affording a comparison between the
conduct of the master manufacturers and that of
the legislating classes, especially the landlords and
the endowed clergy. Of the conduct of the mas-
ters, in comparison with that of their labourers,
about which a great deal is now said, under the
names of Chartists and Shopocrats, we at present

1110 ST IMPORTANT DISCOVERY IN MEDICAL

SCIENCE.

AN Infallible Remedy has been discovered, in a
simple vegetable compound and an outward application,
for the Gout, Rheumatism, Rheumatic Gent, Tic-doleureux,
Lumbago, &e., in all their agonizing forms, by which imme-
diate relief is afforded in the most inveterate cases, and the
cure perfected within from two to three days.
Mr. Thomas Feaver, woollen warehouseman, Nos. 3 and 4,
Friday-street, Cheapside, son of the discoverer, having tested
this remedy -by private circulation for several rears, during
which time thousands leave been cured, from the nobleman to
considers he would be wanting in his duty towards
fellow-creatures if he did not give them the full
thehis s a p ffsear-tilit:g
advantage of this most important discovery ; he therefore no
s to adopt tkis mode of making it publicly
Tha'
etcures it has effected in the most violent and
longer
known. hesitaters
ob-
stiraate cases have been truly wonderful, and a newspaper could
be filled with letters and testimonials in confirmation of its
efficacy from'persons of rank and distinction, including several
from medical gentlemen of eminence. The great superiority
this speeifie possesses ever all other remedies is from its Lein'
an outward a plication, and so
perfeetlyisafe and innocuous that
he most weapk and timid patient may use it with tke greatest
safety.
This remedy is now known as Feaver's Embrocation, and
may be had of tke proprietor, Mr. l'e'aver, 3 and 4, Friday-
street, Cheapside; Barclay and Sons, Nenbery, Edwards, T.
Boiler, Sutton, Sanger, and most of the respectable chemists
and medicine venders in town and country. In bottles at

THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.
The arrivals of English Grain this week have been mo-
derate, and of Flour fair. In consequence of the conti-
'mance of the frost more money wa, asked for all kinds of
Grain, but the buyers showed reluctance to purchase, yet
the prices of Monday were firmly maintained. Flour is in
better demand than of late.
SMITHFIELD MARKET.
The supply of Cattle was pretty good, the quality mostly
of a superior description, the trade brisk. Good fat Beasts
fully realized last Monday's prices. The supply of Mut-
ton was short and trade dull. In Veal there was a ten-
dency to a rise in price, the qualities consisted generally of
time best descriptions. Tho supply of Pigs was moderate
and trade hardly so good as Monday last, there being but
few gooo:porkers at market. Beasts, 1,118 ; Sheep, 2,840;
Pigs. 555 ; Calves, 165. Beef, 44. to ss. Bd. ; Mutton,

COLONIAL MARKET.

The demand for produce was dull, by private treaty,
both for home use and export. The public sales were of
little moment, prices still looking down for most articles.

TEA MARKET.
The market was in a very dull state for all kinds of Tea,
and prices had a downward tendency. East India Com-
pan)'s C%igou offered atl2l.oi-d. per lb. for cash.
TALLOW MARKET.
The demand was steady for Russian Tallow ; sales on
the spot were made at 475. 91 to 4Si. 6d. per cwt., for
delivery in the Spring months. Some arrivals are near
at hand.
