HALES V. DARRELL.

The Court was occupied until nearly one o'clock in
hearing the remainder of the arguments upon the petitions
in this case, which was part heard yesterday.
The MASTER of the ROLLS saki he would deliver his
judgment on Monday.

QUEEN'S BENCH-(THIS DAY.)

(In Banco )
THE QUEEN V. STEPHEN JONES.

This was an appeal from an order of two Justices at
Quarter Sessions at Merionethshire, in Wales, for stopping
up a certain highway in the parish of Llandovery. Seve-
ral objections had been taken to the order-Ist, that there
was no order for the sale of the highway; 2d, that there
was no description of its breadth; 3d, that the order did
riot state that the Justices had found the road unnecessary,
the order merely stating that it was founded on their owl
view ; and 4th, that the reservation of the rights of certain
parties was improperly expressed.
Mr. Sergeant Ana ms was heard at some length against
the objections; but the Court was of opinion that the 3d
objection must prevail, the order not following the words
of the statute 55th Geo. 111. The order was therefore
directed to be quashed.

BAIL COURT.-(THIS DAY.)

(Before Mr. Justice PATTESON )

The Couri did not ait this morning above a quarter of
an hour, and after disposing of a few motions of no public
interest, rose, as there was no business before it. There
were very few barristers in Court, in consequence, it was
supposed, of the election of High Steward fur the Univer-
sity of Cambridge commencing this day.

COMM.ON PLEAS-(THIS DAY.)

(Sittings in Banco.)
GWYNNE V. DAVY AND ANOTHER.

This was an action for a breach of covenant, to which
the defendant had demurred, on the ground that the cove-
nant was merely explanatory of another agreement under
seal, which had not yet been rescinded, and that the plain-
tiff had no right to bring the action.
The Court, having heard the argument, gave judgmer.t
in favour of the demurrer.

DAVIS V. TIIR ISLACKWALL RAILWAY.
In this case, which was also one of demurrer,

Mr. BUTT appeared for the plaintiff.
Mr. Sergeant Bomrns, who was to have appeared in
support of the demurrer, not being in attendance, tl e
Court directed judgment to be entered against the demur-
rer, in favour of the plaintiff.

PRINCE ALBERT AND THE

ELEVENTH HUSSARS.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sir,—Notwithstanding all that has been published
against Lord Cardigan, and all the appeals made to Prince

" Sir—l am commanded by his Royal Highness,
Prince Albert, to acknowledge the receipt of your
letter, enclosing a pamphlet, which you have written in
defence of Lord Cardigan. His Royal Highness, as
Colonel of the regiment, not having been called upon
to express any opinion, and not havinr, taken any part
in this case, will not patronise any publication written
either in defence of the one side or the other.

COUNTRY PRODUCE.

Cotton.—Prices continue to be fully supported up
to Rs. 107 and 108 for breach, and Rs. 98 and 99 per
candy for dholera, the new supplies that have arrived in
the last week not being more than equal to the demand.
Several contracts have been made at lower prices for
delivery in November and December neat, when a ma-
terial reduct.icn may be looked forward to in this market,
as a considerable stock is likely to accumulate here by
that time, and the accounts from England will proba-
bly be very discouraging, the export from hence this
year to Great Britain having been greatly in excess of
last year's, as will be seen from the following compara-

MAP OF CHINA.

WAR WITH CHINA-WHERE IS
CHINA ?-VERY FEW CAN TELL•

The Sun Newspaper will soon answer the question
by publishing a Beautiful, Large, and Highly
Correct MAP of CHINA, with a Complete
History of that Extensive Empire, and its
Singular People.
THE MAP will nearly occupy a page of The Sun.
It is got up under the special Superintendence of
the celebrated Mr. JAMES WYLD, Geographer
to her MAJESTY the QUEEN. It comprehends
also a large portion of India, from the Mouths of
the Ganges—the Islands in the Bay of Bengal—
B irmall —Assam Thibet Nepaul Cochin
China—Canton, and the immense Islands and
Bays along the coast of China to PEKIN,
• situated One Hundred and Twenty Miles inland
from the confines of the Yellow Sea.
The next News from China is expected to be ex-
ceedingly interesting and decisive. The Island
of CH USAN, the first point of attack by the
Expedition, commands the great Bay of Nankin,
from which the Imperial Canal communicates
with Pekin, the Capital of the Empire. Chusan
is about half way between Canton and Pekin.

ARTICLE XIII.

If it shall happen that either the Queen of England
or his Highness the Sultan of Muscat should be at war
with another country, the subjects of her Britannic
Majesty, and the subjects of his Highness the Sultan
of Muscat, shall nevertheless be allowed to pass to such
country through the dominions of either Power, with
merchandise of every description, except warlike stores ;
but they shall not be allowed to enter any port or place
actually blockaded or besieged.
ARTICLE XIV.

Should a vessel under the British flag enter a port in
the dominions of his Hizhness the Sultan of Muscat
in distress, the local authorities at such port shall af-
ford all necessary aid to enable the vessel to refit, and to
prosecute her voyage ; and if any such vessel should be
wrecked on the coasts of the dominions of his Highness
the Sultan of Moscat, the authorities of his Highness
shall give all the assistance in their power to recover
and to deliver over to the owners all the property that
can be saved from such vessel. The same assistance
and protection shall be afforded to vessels of the domi-
nions of his Highness the. Sultan of Muscat, and pro-
perty saved therefrom under similar eircurnstannes, in
the ports and on the coasts of the British dominions...
London, England, 1840-11-11

ARTICLE IV.

Subjects of the dominions of his Highness the Sul-
tan of Muscat actually in the service of British sub-
jects in those dominions, shall enjoy the same protec-
tion which is granted to British subjects themselves ;
but if such subjects of the dominions of his Highness
the Sultan of Muscat shall be convicted of any crime
or infraction of the law requiring punishment, they
shall be discharged by the British subject in whose ser-
vice they may be, and shall be delivered over to the
authorities of his Highness the Sultan of Muscat.

AFFGHANISTAN.

It is said that the overtures of Dost Mahomed to
the Shah Sboojah have turned out mere pretences to
cover his approach to tie frontiers, preparatory to
heading an insurrection. Fortunately for us, timely in-
telligence was received that a general rising was about
to take place, and the leaders who had been seat before
for its organization were discovered and are now in
custody. By this means all has been kept quiet for
the present, owing in a great measure to the forethought
and management of SirAlexandcr Burnes. There were in
Bombay, a week since, accounts of the letters of a certain
chief having been intercepted, making disoclosures of
importance, and we believe that the contemplated in-
surrection was the subject on which they gave informa-
tion. Our readers, we believe, will find that the above
account of the matter may be, in a great measure, re-
lied on as the correct one.
The iron steamers on the Indus on the present occa-
sion have done admirable service, effecting even more in
assisting the troops than could possibly have been tx-
pected of them by the most sanguine. The whole of
her Majesty's 40th have reached Sukkur in excellent
hcalth.—Bombay Timer, Sept. 30.

COMMERCIAL REMARKS.
We have received through Calcutta intelligence
from Macao to the 31 July last, being a few days later
than the news that had previously reached direct. Ad-
miral Elliot arrived there in the Melville, 74, on the
28th June last, and proceeded to the northward, with
the intention, it was understood, of taking possession
of the island of Chusan. The blockade of the Canton
river commenced on the same date, and the Americans
were all to leave on the 30th of June. The last parcel
of East India cotton imported before the commence-
, meat of the blockade, it is said, realised as high a price
as 12 taels per pccul, so general was the impression
among the Chinese that the trade would continue sus-
pended for a considerable period. Opium was selling
freely on many parts of the coast, but at others the
Mandarins succeeded. in greatly impeding the trade.

A N AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR,
.C 1 with REMARKS on the VARIOUS INCIDEN
which have occurred during FORTY-FIVE YEARS of his
LIFE, "and a FULL DESCRIP PION of his MODE of
TREATING DISEASES, with REASONS EXPLANA-
TORY of HIS SYSTEM.
By SAMUEL WESTCOTT TILKE,
Medical Herbalist, Author of " Random Reflections on In-
digestion, Gout, Tenia Capitis, Scarlet Fever," &c. &c.
" Mr. 'Dike is one of those individuals who, born with a
wooden spoon in their mouths, have, by the alchemy of thrift and
industry, converted it into silver. He began the world as a jour-
neyman baker, but every intermission from the labour of the knead.
ing trough, was devoted to the pursuit of medical science. Any
man who makes such unceasing efforts as he has done to allevia e
the sufferings of humanity, is entitled to honourable mention."—
fimes, Nov. 3.
" In this volume we have the autobiographical memoir of a man,
whose career in life has been a chequered one, but who, by sheer
dint of perseverance, and allowing a gallant front to misfortune,
had the satisfaction of seeing all his efforts crowned with success.
fl.o Memoir is an interesting one, as showing what may be accom-
plished by energy and good conduct; and it is written in a cheerful
and benevolent strain. As a Medical Herbalist, Mr. Tilke has
effected a variety of surprising cures in obstinate cases of gout,
rheumatism, and indigestion. His mode of treating some of these
diseases is fully described in the course of his Memoir, and he has
added reasons explanatory of his system, so that he who runs may
read."—The Sun, Nov. 5.

WONDERFUL DISCOVERY.

APERMANENT CURE for the TOOTH-
ACHE is instantly effected by the application of the
GREGORIAN PASTE, prepared by the Rev. GORMAN
GREGG, sole Inventor. Also for the Ear-ache and Tic-do-
oreux. The above soothing, painless, and perfectly innocuous
nerve killer, has at length effected that grand desideratum since
the creation, viz., the CURE of TOOTHACHE. Trial only
will convince you of its efficacy.

SYRIAN PORTS.

In the Colonial Magazine, for November there is an
:teresting account of the commercial resources and sta•
istics of Spin, ffiorn 'which we subjoin the following ac-
7ount of its ports :

•• Ancient history is replete with the importance of
the ports of Syria. Tyre and Sidon are now choked
up, and offer no security to shippinz ; Tripoli and
Latakia, of more modern note, have ceaied to be fee-
Taeateil. B yrout and Scanderoon, or Alexandretta,
are new the principal harbours of export and import ;
:Ito former providing for the -supply of Damascus and
Palestine—the latter for that of Antioch, Aleppo, and
Northern Syria. Modern Beyrout stands on the site
of the ancient Berytus, a colony of Sidon, founded at
a period of remote antiquity. Berytus, became a
Roman colony under Augustus, and , was one of the
:nest beautiful cities of Pbcenicia. It was destroyed
by au earthquake in 566, but was rebuilt, and fell into
the hands of the Saracens. Tile city was re-captured
by Baldwin, King of Jerusalem, and was afterwards
taken from the Christians by Saladin ; and subse-
quently it several times changed hands, according to
the success of the crusaders or their enemies. It be-
came eventually the re,.idence of the Emir F.skir.el-
Din, Prince of the Druses, who was killed there,
:when ineffectually attempting to defend his country
against Sultan Amurath IV., and from that period
Beyrout has remained a part of the Ottoman cmpire.
The manufacture of glass is said to have been invented
at Beyrout. The modern town is threatened with a
&stressing fate by the accumulations of minute sand,
which is gradually advancing towards it from the south,
at the rate of about thirty yards per annum.
" Beyrout is the most flourishing part in Syria ; the
harbour is bad, or is, more strictly speaking, a dangerous
roadstead : in the winter, vessels anchor at the mouth
of the river Nahr-el-Kelb. Indeed, the only port in
Syria which is really entitled to that name, is Scande-
roots, which is an extensive natural harbour, and safe for
any number of vessels of any size—but it is unimproved
by art ; and the unhealthiness of the town, which is
situated in a marsh, whose pernicious exhalations are I
confined to the plain by the mountains of Taurus which
rise behind it, keep down its population to a most incon-
,iderable number of inhabitants. A project for carry-
ing off the stagnant waters, and thus giving to the place
the chances of future commercial revival, had, however,
been adopted by Ibrahim Pacha."

MOST IMPORTANT _ DISCOVERY IN MEDICAL

SCIENCE.
" Vincet veritas et prevalebit."
FEAVER'S INFALLIBLE EMBROCA-
TION for GOUT, RHEUMATISM, RHEUMA-
TIC GOUT, TIC DOULEROUX, LUMBAGO, SCIA-
TICA,. RHEUMATIC FEVER, QUINSEY, &c., now
for the first time introduced to the notice of the public ; al-
though in the present age of imposture it is difficult to put
for-
ward a truth, however important, that shall not be liable to be
confounded with the daily empirical puffs that arc obtruded on
the public eye. This consideration has for a long time deterred
the proprietor of Feaver's Embrocation from advertising- it.
Felling, however, a thorough conviction of the incalculable be-
nefits it will confer on mankind, he conscientiously believes
that, by withholding it longer, he would be wanting in the com-
mon feelings of humanity towards his fellow-creatures, and of
duty towards himself. He, therefore, no longer hesitates to
adopt this mode of making this wonderful remedy generally
known, that the afflicted may have an opportunity of enjoying
the blessings it offers them. This specific was revealed to the
proprietor's father twelve years ago, who then cured him-
self of a very obstinate case of inflammatory gout of thirty
years' standing, and although on that occasion he had been
confined to his bed-room for two months, he was enabled to
walk two miles within six hours after the application. Since

possesses over every other remedy consists in its being an in-
noxious vegetable compound, in the perfect security with
which it may be used (outwardly) by the most afflicted and
timid patient, and in the certainty of its being a sound, safe,
and radical exterminator of the above-named maladies in all
their terrible and agonizing forms. Original testimonials in
confirmation are in the hands of the Proprietor, Nos. 2 and 3,

MUSIC•

CHILD H 0 OD' S HOUR, a Ballad• Written by
Miss MARIANA NIXON, Composed by W3r. GOOD
This is a very pleasing ballad of the Haynes 13ailey
school. Tile melody, by Mr. Good, is sweet and
flowing, and does not require a very great compass ol
voice fur its execution. The accompaniment is judi-
cious, supporting, without drowning the voice. Alto-
gether the ballad is well adapted for lady performers,
and we doubt not will become a favourite in the draw-

GREAT FOOT RACE AT PAISLEY.---- 100 t
race-
race is to come off on Friday first, on the Paisley
course, which has made a great deal of noise in the sport-
ing world, and the bets pending on which amount to
large sums. This race, we understand, originatd in a
challenge offered by a Mr. W ylie, alias Merrylegs, a
celebrated English runner, to beat any Scotsman that
ards of a start,
could be found, giving the Scotsman 350 y
on a distance of three miles. Two Scotsmen were se-
lected and put in training to meet the English champion,
Lanar
viz., James Hamilton, weaver, from Drumelog, k-
' shire, and Robert Gilchrist, shepherd, from Shorten, Ayr-
shire. These two have been for come time running at
\
Paisley, and a trial race was to come off this forenoon be-
tween them, to fix which of the two is to run against
Merrylegs. The betting is 100/. to 50/. in favour of
Merrylegs. There is a bet on Hamilton that he will run
one mile on the common road in five minutes. The time
generally taken by the trainers to run three times round
i the Paisley course, which is considerably
tiser more than three
i miles, is fifteen minutes.—Paisley Adver.

TEA. AN.D COFFEE.

IMPORT DtifIES—COFFRE.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUZY.
SIR,—I take the liberty of enclosing a statement
respecting the increased consumption of Coffee for the
last fifty years, and shall be glad if you will print t 1.13
return, if you think it worth while.
It is worthy of remark, that the consumption has
not increased of late years. This is to be attributed to
the great use of Chicory, now allowed by the Board
of Excise. I will give one instance, among many of
equal extent, and if the duty on Coffee were lowered
to three-pence a pound all round, the revenue would
be improved, and Coffee would cease to be " im-
proved" with that abominable root, Chicory. But, I
am forgetting the instance I was about to mention.
A short time ago, an order was given for twenty
pounds of Coffee ; nine pounds of this Coffee was to
be Chicory, and eleven pounds Coffee ; and to be
weighed up in seven-and-a-half ounces, for the pur-
pose of being hawked about the country for half
pounds of Coffee. The man applied to more than
one person to execute this shameful fraud, who refused ;
but another not so exact, took the task of weighing this
mixture in the way I have dacribed ; and the men
himself was my informant. I am, your's,

Chamber have examined the budget of ways and means
proposed to meet the necessary expenditure. The ad-
dition of ten per cent. to many taxes has called forth
many objections. It is observed that the principal ne-
cessaries of life ought not to be taxed any higher. Va-
