(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) •
In this neighbourhood "notices to quit," on purpose
to raise the rent, have been served very freely by nearly
all the .great landlords, on those tenants who have no
lease,- although in many cases_ the rent was raised only
last year, and in not a few rases rent had been raised
twice before within the last four years.

Most of the farm farmers are very cool about the Corn-laws

Many of the tenants hereabout, before the - Poor-law
passed, were allowed ten. to twenty per cent. oft; but
when the owners found the saving to the farmer by the
Poor-law was worth notice, they allowed the per centage
no longer, and have since given

The Madrid papers received are of the ]st
inst. The '2d, being the anniversary of the rise of
the Spaniards against the French in 1808, was
to be celebrated as a festival. The Cortes were
still occupied with the Regency question, the
debates upon which were exceedingly prosy.
On the Bourse the Fives were at 27 for cash.

A private letter from Bordeaux of the 4th instant states
that tie Bishop of Saragossa, who has resided some time in the
forme; city, had published a charge to the clergy of his dio-
cese, which it was believed would produce a great sensation.
'I he Bishop orders all the parish priests to publish it in their
respective churches, together with the Pope's last allocution to
the secret Consist ory.
M. Durou, the Spanish Consul, immediately wrote to the
Ambassador of Spain in Paris, and applied at the same time
to the Prefect of the Gironde, requesting his interference to
prevcnt the introduction into'Spain of a document written by
a refugee who was receiving French hospitality, and which
was calculated to kindle civil war in a neighbouring and
friendly country. The Consul also cautioned the Spanish
frontier authorities, and, from suchttimely notice being given,
it was hoped that the episcopal firebrand would be stopped and
miscarry.

The Work which is now presented to the public is the result
of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec-
tions, which for some unaccountable reason have been either
altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in-
difference, by the et dinary practitioner. To enter into the
details of these elections, to point out their causes, and to
mark the terrific consequences, social, moral, and physical,
which are sure to follow from indulgence, in certain habits,
would be entirely out of place in an Advertisement. We have
no hesitation, however, in saying that there is no member of
society, by whom the book will not he found interesting, whe-
ther we consider such person to hold the relation of a PA-
RENT, a PRECEPTOR. or a CLERGYMAN.

Messrs. CURTIS and CO. are to be consulted daily at their

quested to be as minnte as possible in the detail of their cases,

neral habits of hying, and occupation in life of the party ; the

taken of their application ; and in all cases, the most inviolable
secrecy may be relied on.

course, and do it he will. Thus the Whig gentry will
have two general elections within the summer instead of
one; the operation being to give the Conservatives the
full development of their legitimate force by the second,
of which the Ministers think to defraud them by the first.
Tice other reason is, that an instant dissolution by
the Whigs will in one way serve the Conservatives iiia-
tt,rially—it .will put them in an instant majority, and
thus prevent all chamber plots and back-stairs after-
trickery. The sooner a general election comes, the
sooner will the real strength of constitutional Conserva-
tisni be exhibited, and their tenure of power confirmed.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF QUEENS BENCH, May 10.
HUGHES r. JENKINS.

Lord DEN MAN gave judgment in this ease. It was an action
brought to recover a sum of 501., being the amount of a bet
alleged to have been won by the plaintiff from the defendant.
The bct wa, 50 to 1 that a horse named Bhoirsbury had won
the Derby, and the averment. was, that at the time of making
the bet—namely, the 6:11 Slay, 11339, Bloomsbury had won
the race. The defendant pleaded that the bet was illegal,
being laid upon the event of a hor:v race, and the ques-
tion was, whether a wager upon a horse race which had
been already won and decided, was illegal. It was
clear that, •by the statute 9th Anne, if that statute
applied to a bye-gone horse-rat e—the words were, that any
person I.iyiEg any wager upon the event of any horse-race,
&c., any penon so winning any sum over and above 101., shall,
upon conviction, fo.feit five times the value of the sum so won.
It followed that an action could not be maintained uvon a bet
so won. Could it be slid truly in the present case that the
plaintiff had won a sum of money on the event of a horse-race?
It appeared to the Court that no latitude of construction could
bring such a wager within the statute, the bet evidently de •
pending upon the accuracy of the information of ei.her party,
as to an event already decided. The judgment of the Court,
therefore, must. be for the plaintiff.
London, England, 1841-05-11

THE QUEEN V. FALL AND OTHERS.

The COURT gave judgment in this case. It was an application
to review the Master's taxation, on the ground that in point of
fact he had no authority to tax the costs of a writ of mandamus,
without. a rule being obtained from the Court especially for that
pur, ose. Ihe writ had been sued out against the parish
officers of Lambeth, and the return having been traversed,
o ent to a jury, who found a verdict for the Crown. 'The
question was whether the costs of the writ of mandamus could
be included in the verdict of the jury, and that depended Nein
the r•onstruc.tion of the last clause of the statute Ist William IV.
fur making some further provision for costs in cases of manda-
mus. But that clause did not interfere with the provisions of
the 9th Anne, chap. 20, which provided that where a prosecu-

that. before a Jury the prosecutor recovered a verdict, he was
in thst case entitled to such costs an if the defendant had made
a false return. There was a provi o that on a proper applica •
tion being made the Court had the power of depriving a party
of his costs; but in the present case, in the absence of any
such application, the Court was of opinion that the prosecutor
having succeeded in the trial, was entitled to his costs. The
rule ther, fore must be discharged.

THE QUEEN V. THE illtpTQl, DOcri COMPANY.

.The CovnT gave judgment in this ease. It was an
appeal by the defendants from a rate made for the relief
of the poor in the parish of Clifton, in which the Com-
pany were assessed for a certain sum in respect of Cum-
berland-basin, with the docks, gates, wharfs, quays, 4c.
It appeared that the Company had beersfinaued under
the provisions of an .A.et. 43 Cleorge the Third, for
the improvement of the port of Bristol. The Company
purchased eleven acres of land in the parish of Clifton,
on which they bad erected Cumberland-twin, The
question the Court had to considor was, whether the ap-
pellants were to bo rated in respect of their property in
that parish in the same proportion as other land in the
vicinity, at its value as pasture or meadow-land, or whe
ther they should, in addition, pay the increased
value which the land was worth in respect of certain
tolls and dues levied by the appellants. The question
turned a good deal upon the con,sti,luctiss,u 641 the 64th
sect}9ll the Oct, Afl 1411 t*T4Tit to tie manner in
which the Company were inpt3y their land and other
taxes, After citing the provisions of the section, the
Court said that, on the whole, they were of opinion
that the assessment should be reduced to the sum of
3/. 7s. 6d., being at the rate of Is. in the pound upon 671.

COLEURN'S NEW MONTHLY MAGAZINE
AND HUMORIST FOR AUGUST. EDITED BY THEODORE
Hook, Esq.—TlllS Magazine should thrive, if eminent
contributions can bring grist to a publisher's mill. The
Editor, Hood, Mrs. Trollope, Blanchard, Poole, and
Jerrold, are palpable pen-labourers at the vocation of
the periodical, and there are clever anonymouS articles
besides. The paper on " Screws," is par example, full
of informing satire, and useful exposure, and there is no
disputing the blended bitterness and wit of Mr. Jerrold's
stinging illustration of " The Manager in Search of a
Star. We wish, in 'spite of our appreciation of the
force of . his ridicule, that this author would write in a
kindlier spirit. Poole is just as merry, and not half as
morose, and his drollery you can eny with something
like sly hilarity. By the way the "Pedestrian Rambles
in the Alps, in the present number of The New Monthly
are very interesting.—Morning Post.
THE MOON.—M. Atago, the celebrated astro-
nomer,Alle-been giving lectures. to crowded audiences
on the nature of the moon. He contends that this planet
is not an inhabited body, and that it is without any kind
of vitality, either animal or vegetable. He denies also
that it has either seas, rivers, or lakes, but admits that it
has mountains and valleys, which, however, he says, are
1 of primitive formation.

of the Nineteenth Century, is nightly performing his ambi-

calling into action all his wonderful powers of cabalistic phe—

Elite of the Metropolis, and still continues to attract hundreds
nightly.
The HARMONIOUS YOUTHS have made a decided hit
—their '° merrie peals" are nightly encored. This extraordi-
nary musical phenomena-is allowed by the thousands who last
week heard their " sense-enslaving" harmony, to be a wonder
and a treat to the -musical world. They will appear every

ON MONDAY, THE 16TH.

The whole of the troops will receive gratuities,
and at eleven o'clock the trial of skill for the mu-
nicipal prizes will commence in the Tintelleries
between the various bands that assisted at the cere-
mony of the previous day. This will be a great musical
treat. It is well known that the northern towns
of France are very. musical, and abound with ama-
teurs of no cp retensions.— Lhe l'hilharrnoik
Societies of Cal s, -Dunkirk, and St. Omer are cele-
brated for their precision, sweetness, and power ; above
fifty musicians from each of those towns will be pre-
sent ; we hear that they have sunk all minor
differences to unite in one common cause, for the
honour of their respective towns, and meet constantly
at rehearsals to carry home in triumph from Boulogne
the first prize. This promises a banquet to the lovers of
harmony on which they may regale with delight ; no dis-
cord can be contemplated at such a reunion. This melo-
dious trial of skill, it is supposed, will last upwards of
four hours, and will conclude by the distribution of prizes
among the most deserving. For the rest of Monday the
minds of all will be left to chew quietly the cud of mediL
tatien over the sweet thoughts the morning's amusement
is so calculated to promote.

ELECTIONEERING.

At the public dinner given at Dublin on Saturday,
in honor of the return of Messrs. Wyse and Barron,
Mr. O'Connell was present, and still harped on the
assessor : speaking of the return made by this
person, Mr. O'Connell said—" Such a thing never
happened in England ; the return there is made
by the Sheriff, Mayor, or High Bailiff, and not
an Assessor. It comes before the English with this sin-
gularity, that for five hundred years they have been re-
turning Members of Parliament, and that no as-
sessor has ever attempted to return Members
there." Mr. O'Connell subsequently explained his
intended proceedings in the affair thus :—" I
want three things to be done—first, to declare
Wyse and Barron to be the sitting Members ; next to
declare the return to be frivolous and vexatious ; and
thirdly, to call upon the Attorney-General to prosecute
for the conspiracy by which this has been brought about,
and then we will take care not to lay the venue in the
city of Waterford."

LAW AND POLICE.

On Friday, at Maidstone, an indictment, at the in-
stance of a man of the name of Edwards, in the pay of
the Custom House, against Mary Martin and two men
for a riot and common assault. The disturbance had
arisen from some information given by Edwards, which
led to the forfeiture of a vessel belonging to Mrs. Martin's
husband, by which he lost property to the amount of 1,0001.
The lady of course was sadly annoyed at this, and on
meeting the informer one day she seizedhim by the nose
with one hand and beat him violently with the other.
The two male defendants who among many others at-
tacked him afterwards, were convicted and sentenced to
two months' hard labour. The lady, who was also con-
victed, entered into her own recognizance to appear when
called up for judgment.
A baker of the name of Bullivant, residing in
Broad-street, Lambeth, was fined 51. on Monday for as-.
saulting William Halifax, a letter-carrier. The com-
plainant swore positively that when he demanded 2d. for
a letter addressed to the defendant, the latter refused to
pay it, and struck him several violent blows. The defen-
dant positively declared that he did not strike the plain-
tiff at all, and paid the money.
At Queen-square on Monday, Mustapha Ali, a
Greek, was charged with uttering a draft on Cox and
Greenwood, upon a false representation that it would be
paid by Colonel L. Stanhope. The prisoner, who is
about thirty years of age, was saved, when a boy, in
Greece, by Lord Byron, during a general massacre by the
Turks.

At Chester, on. Saturday, two men who had been
convicted of robbery, and sentenced to transportation for

fourteen years, were placed again at the bar, and in-
formed by Mr. Justice Erskine that he should recal the
sentence, as there appeared considerable doubt as to the
first count of the indictment. They were then sentenced
to transportation for seven years on a minor count of the
indictment.

Two good-looking country girls from Yarmouth
were brought before Sir Juhn Cowan, at Guildhall, on
Monday, charged with absconding from their parents.
The mother, it appeared, had pursued them to town and
traced them to a house in Shire-lane in time to save
them from ruin. They had been inveigled into the house
by some loose woman they met in the street.
