discovered in 1605. At the present clay an ancient
lantern is shown at the Bodleian Library, Oxford, stated
to be the identical lantern of Fawkes, discovered in the
cellar. The conspirators were thirteen in number,
whose intent was, " suddenly and with one blast, to
blow up and toar in pieces" the King and Parliament.
Two were killed, and eight executed.
Louis Philippo's chateau at Fu lies about seven leagues
(18 miles) from Dieppe. The principal architectural
embellishments were made by la grande Mademoiselle,
during the period of her exile from the Court of Louis
XIV. on account of her refusal to espouse the King of
Portugal. The park and gardent are her work, and she
also formed the magnificent collection of marbles and
pictures which now adovx the chateau.

MCCLESIASTICAL.

A meeting of tile Protestant Association took place
last night, at Exeter Hall, to commemorate the discovery
and prevention of the Gunpowder Plot. One of the
speakers said :—" He was born on the banks of the
Boyne, where it was the custom of mothers to bathe
their children in the waters of the river, to imbue them
more perfectly with the pure principles,of Protestantism.
So deeply had he been impressed with these principles,
that the only tune he could ever learn was : Protestant
Boys, and the only toast he knew was The glorious,
pious, and immortal memory.' "

Sperm. This is without drawback, viz. :—no alteration of
the Lamp, no excessive heat; no breakage of chimney glasses,
nor stoppage of the lamp tubes by coagula'Aon of the oil ;
in fact, nothing more is required than that the Oxydator
should tit the lamp burner, to obtain a brilliant, innocuous,
and powerful flame. As a lamp is kept burning for the free
inspection of the public, those who value an invention for
its worth to the community will be much gratified in seeing

SELVES V. SELVES.

Mr. PEMBERTON, on behalf of the plaintiff, moved to
transfer a fund remaining in Court in this cause. A
testator by his will, bearing date in the year 1802,
directed the income of a sum of 1,700/. to be paid to
Edward Selves for his life, and after his death to be
transferredl6 his children, and divided between them
share and share alike, as they should respectively attain
the age of 25 years. Edward Selves died in 1824, and
it was now prayed that the remainder of the fund, which
had been reduced to 1,3371. by various decrees of the
Court, should be divided, in their respective proportions,
among such of the children as had attained the age of 25.
His LORDSHIP granted the order, which was not op
posed.

THE NEW COUGH MEDICINE.

HOLLAND'S BALSAM of SPRUCE,
the newly-discovered Remrdy for COUGHS,
COLDS, INFLUENZA, INCIPIENT ASTHMA, and
CONSUMPTION.

The singular efficacy of this Medicine is manitested in the
almost miraculous recovery of multitudes suffering from bad
Colds, Coughs, Soreness and Rawness of the Chest, Sore
Throats, Hoarseness, &c., &c., it giving relief an hour after
taking ; but the most astonishing fact is, that it has, restored
hundreds labouring under astlimas, for periods from ten to
twenty years standing, unexpected by even the proprietor him-
self. Many also who. in the prime of life, had every prospect
of falling into consumption,,and had tried every other remedy
in vain, by a judicious recourse to this valuable medicine, have
been restored to their fam.ly and friends, and are this day
living monuments of the benign influence of Holland's Balsam
of Spruce.
The Fifteenth Testimony in favour of this extraordinary
Medicine, from Mr. 11.-rD. Bnst,formerly of Winterton, Lin-
colnshire. " Southampton, Feb. 12, 1841.
" Sir—Having had my chest weakened much by frequent at-
tacks of inflammation, so that, when taking the least cold, 01'
which lam very susceptible, I have for several years suffered
much by its attacking me there in a variety of shapes, I have
taken horehound, linseed, and most of the advertised medicines,
some of them with tolerable effect ; but meeting with your
Balsam of Spruce, promiscuously, when much afflicted, 1 was
induced to try it, and am thankful to say I found immediate re-
lief, and by taking two bottles was completely cured.; indeed,
so perfectly, that I had not felt so easy at my chest for twelve
mouths prior. I recommended it to two parties, who also ex-
perienced the same beneficial results. 1 feel it my duty to ac-
quaint you thus, and wi,ll you an extended sale. I feel assured
that it will impart relief and give satisfaction ; it is the best me-
dicine for the purpose I have taken.
" I ant, Sir, your obedient servant,
" Charles Holland, Esq. " R. D. BUST.
" I have lately had another attack, and found Vie same happy
relief. " R. D. B."

This case will be immediately followed by others, to the num-
ber of nearly 100 already received ; its astonishing power in
subduing coughs and colds exceeds all belief, whilst its healing,
balsamic, and soothing qualities instantly relieve soreness and
tightness of the chest, sense of suffocation, sore throat, &c. Sold

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF CHANCERY, Nov. 4.
IN THE MATTEH OF PLUMMER AND ANOTHER.
This case came before the Court upon appeal from the
judgment of the Court of Review and Bankruptcy. The
short facts of the case appeared to be as follow :
Plummer and Wilson, who carried on partnership toge-

ther, gave to a person named Jones a mortgage on an
estate in Jamaica, as security for their debt, and the con-
veyance in that mortgage covenanted that the parties
would pay jointly and severally. Plummer and Wilson
became bankrupts, and Jones sought to prove against the
joint, as well as the separate estate, for the full amount of
his:d?bt. _ .

On behalf of the appellant it was contended that
under the circumstances of the case, Jones was only en-
titled to prove against the joint estate for his debt, but
that in case that estate was not sufficient to answer his
demand, that then he might go against the separate
estate. On the part of the respondent it was submitted
that the deed was the act of both the partners, that they
knew perfectly well what they were doing, and that by
it they were giving their creditor an advantage which he
was entitled to retain.

Upon the case coming on before the Court of Review
,eir Honours were divided in opinion.
The Loiw CHANCELLOR, at the conclusion of the

arguments, said, that as the question was one of great
nicety, and as the Judges of the Court of Review had
differed in their opinions, he should take time to con-
sider his judgment.- —Judgment postponed.

IN THE MATTER OF CALDECOTT, A BANKRUPT.
This case also came before the Court upon appeal

from the judgment of the Court of Review. The -facts
were as follow :—The Commercial Bank of England
sought, by their manager, to prove a debt against one of
their own partners, on the authority of the i th of George
IV., and Ist and 2d Victoria, the provisions of both
those Acts giving managers of Joint Stock Companies
a right to sue the members of their own body for debts
due to the Company. The Court of Review decided
that he could prove, and the present case came before the
Court by way of appeal from that decisit n.
• Mr. SWANSTSN and Ml'. RUSSELL, for the appellant,
contended that, according.; to the settled practice of the
Court, no partsur could' prove against another partner
until the accor2ts of the partnership were wound up,
and the amount of the debts ascertained; and that not
having been done in the present instance, the party was
not entitled to the benefit that had been given him by
the Court below.

Mr. litcumws and Mr. ANDERSON, for the respon-
dent, submitted that under the Acts of Parliament there
was a clear right given to the manager of any joint stock
company to sue any member of the company, or prove
against his estate in case he should become bankrupt.
The LORD CHANCELLOR was of opinion that the right
was clearly given, and ordered the decision of the Court
below to be affirmed, with costs.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS

FRANCE.

The Moniteur of yesterday announces that a seditious
movement, similar to that which took place at St. Liveade,
had broken out at Villeneuve d'Agen, and caused serious
disorders. The mail coach had been stopped and robbed,
and the Sub-Prefect, having no force but the gendarmerie
at his disposal, was obliged to seek refuge in the central
prison. A barricade had been erected on the bridge,
and the communication between the two banks of the
river was for a moment interrupted.

UNION-HALL.

Solomon Parsloe and George Taylor, two men of re-
spectable appearance, were charged with obtaining a
quantity of goods under false pretences from Mr. J.
Ratcliffe, stationer and rag merchant, of Blackman-
street, Borough.
The complainant stated that the prisoner Parsloe
called upon him, stating he was deputed by Mr. George
Taylor, of Market Resborough, farmer, to select a quan-
tity of rags for manuring his land. The complainant,
upon making inquiries as to Parsloe's character, was so
well satisfied that he consented to send down a load of
four sorts of rags fer samples, and afterwards, upon re-
ceiving an order in a letter from Mr. Taylor, he was in-
duced to send down seven tons of the rags most
approved of, to the value of fifty pounds, with-
out receiving payment for them. In a few days iff-
wards, from certain information as to the real
elm
of the parties, inquiries were made, when' it wasracters
tained they were not faswers,
but ..iad acted in coanseceerri

with each other, and had succeeded in duping many per-
sons ; that on the arrival of the seven tons of rags, the
prisoners offered them for sale at 25 per cent. under the
cost price. When Taylor was questioned as to the order
he at first said the letter was a forgery, but afterwards
admitted being the writer, and that he now regretted the
part he had been induced to take by Parsloe in the affair.
The goods were traced to a place two miles off, where
complainant had also heard a most unfavourable account
of the prisoners, who, it was asserted, were deeply en-
gaged in other schemes of the same description, to ob-
tain goods and dispose of them under their value. The
prisoners offered to give up the goods if the proceedings
against them were dropped.
Mr. Corn/cm:ram said no compromise could be al-
lowed. As evidence had been given of a most serious
offence having been committed by the prisoners, he should
remand them till Thursday. In the meantime, if pub-
licity were given to the present examination through the
newspapers, no doubt other persons who had been de-
frauded by similar stratagems would come forward
against them.
KENSINGTON POLICE COURT.

A young bricklayer, named Edward Milwood, residing.
at Hammersmith, was charged before Mr. CuvE, the sit-
ting Magistrate, with throwing down part of a wall be-
longing to Sir Henry Willcock, at Campden-hill, Ken-
sington. It appeared that the defendant, wishing to make
work, if not for himself, at least for others in his trade,
was seen at five o'clock on Friday morning pushing down
two tiers of the bricks by a policeman named Hill, who
had been placed on the watch in consequence of the daily
recurrence of such outrages since March last. Hill in-
stantly pursued him, but as he got hold of him his foot
slipped and he fell, when the defendant got away, and al-
though Hill followed him for five miles he escaped, but
was retaken the same evening at Hammersmith. The
defendant was fined 205., with 53., the amount of da-
mage, or one month's hard labour in the House of Cor-
rection.

FOUR DAYS LATER FROM. THE

- - - -
We have received New York papers to the 23d inclu-
i*e, brought by the Bablraore, which reached Havre on
silo 12th. They contain but little intelligence worth ex-
Invqing.

The following paragraph from tb.e Oneida Observer is
the only reference we find in these papers to the case of
/rllLeod
A number of journals bay° s'Ated confidently that an
appeal would be taken ft urn eae recent decision of the
Supreme Court, in the case of M'Leod, to the Court
of Errors. This, we 13elie.ve, is an error. It is not,
Ire understand, intend ed by the counsel ,of M'Leod to
Ila°ve for an appeal, l',ut to bring the case to trial
as soon as may ,e, probably in this county, in ac-
cordance, we lea rn, with the expressed wish of
the prisoner. Tl' .e argument of the Supreme Court is
deemed to ham' ,ettled conclusively the legal points in the
;controversy ; und the hope of obtaining a reversal of its
decision by in appeal to the Court of Errors, is not, we
believe, and ulged by any body. M'Leod is now in
k_icharge of the Sheriff of this county, in whose cus-
'nay he w ill probably remain until his trial, which we
learn he '1 anxious should take place as soon as possible,
~4111.1; er .tirely confident, as he asserts, of his ability to
toitynish the most conclusive proof that he had no parti-
hilaPatio n in the outrage for which he stands indicted.
Sin writing the above, we have learned that the Su-
.lPreur .iCourt, on applimtion of M'Leod's counsel, have
gralv,ed an order changing the venue for his trial to this
.010,11111'y. It will take place in September.

LAW AND POLICE.

At the Gloucester Assizes on Thursday, John
nelr, Oliver Sogtham, and Joluz Smith, were indicted

for the wilful murder of John Overbury, on the 30th of
June. It appeared that the deceased, on being called
upon in the Queen's name, to assist a constable in ar-
resting a man of the name of Norris, suspected of steal-
ing potatoes, complied with the request, when _he was
attacked by Norris and others, and received such severe
injuries, that he died in the course of the night. The
Jury found Phelps guilty of an assault, and acquitted
the other two. Sentence was not passed, as, at the in-
stance of counsel, the Judge reserved a point of law.
At Lambeth-street police-office, on Friday, Mr.
Kelly, the landlord of the Ship and Black Horse, High-
street, Shadwell, was brought before Mr. Norton,
charged with improperly interrupting the proceedings of
the Tower Hamlets' Court of Requests. It appeared
that a decision had been given against Mr. Kelly respect-
ing the claims of some musicians for the payment of
145., the amount of two days' wages, for attending with
the friends of Mr. Hutchinson, on the day of nomina-
tion ; and that Mr. Kelly, thinking he was unjustly
treated, addressed Mr. Brushfield, one of the Commis-
sioners, in these words lam as goof a =AI as you,
and will meet you some other day." He immediately
left the Court, but was taken into custody outside by
order of Mr. Brushfield, and carried before the Magis-
trate, who declined to interfere, and was supported in
his decision by .one of the Commissioners, numbers or
whom had flocked to the Court to perform a part in the
strange scene. The noisy proceedings finally terminated
by Mr. Kelly making something like an apology.
The bankruptcy of Messrs. Whitmore, Wells, and
Co., the bankers of Lombard-street, said to be occasioned
by large advances to the house of Daintry, Ryle, and
Co., of Manchester, is now before Mr. Commissioner
Fonblanque. In another column of The Sun, will be
seen the amount of debts proved and admitted, amount-
ing to at least 250,0001. The adjourned hearing is fixed
for the 15th September.

—We have news from the United States to the 24th

queen Christina's protest, and the reply of the
Spanish Government, are the principal topics of discus-

festo as wanting in dignity, and they are right. A false
delicacy should no longer prevent Espartero from ex-
posing the worthlessness of the avaricious and profligate

Mr. Christopher Weldon said he was a goldsmith' and

his foot through his (Mr. Waldron's) window,

shop and a policeman was sent for, but ten minutes
elapsed before one could be found, hen the prisoner
mss given into custody..
Other witnesses having been called in corroboration
Of this statement,
Mr. Alderman CoPELAND ordered an inspector to at-
band, and explain the reason why such a thoroughfare as
Ludgate-hill was so badly watched, who upon his arrival
said there were many of the men engaged in attending at
the Old Bailey, and even at the present moment twelve
of them were in this Court with charges.
The prisoner who, it seems, had only just come out
of prison a few days, and whose manner would induce
person to believe him insane, was fully committed
for trial.
