SHERIFFS' COURT, Oct. 21.
nuroun V. LEGER.

The plaintiff in this case was a milliner, carrying on
business in the neighbourhood of Portman-square, and
the defendant, a French lady of fortune, residing in the
Edgware-road. The action was brought to recover the
sum of 5!. 75., fur mending, " alteration, and making up"
of dresses, &c.
Several witnesses having been examined, amongst
whom was the plaintiff's son, who seemed as great an
adept in ladies' gear as his parent, and whose evidence
caused much laughter, a verdict was returned for the
plaintiff in the full amount claimed.

THE FRFNCH LOAN.

The following are the proceedings which took place
on Monday, relative to the adjudication of the loan,
v hick we announced in our columns of yesterday. A
',ebbe meeting was held at the Hotel of the Minister
of,Finance pursuant to notice, for the purpose of re-
ceiving tenders for the loan of 150,000,000 francs
(6,000,0000 in Three per Cent. Stock. The assembage
was numerous,ineluding many great capitalists and stock-
brokers. At twelve o'clock precisely M. Humana
took the chair, and explained in a few words the object
of the meeting. The Secretary-General then read the
Royal Ordonna.ace of Sept,
18, and the decree of the
Minister of Finance of the nine date, issued in con-
formity with tho law of 25th June, Budget cf Finances,
authorising toe said loan. The Minister afterwards
laid on the table a declaration,- signed and sealed
by him, fixing the minimum price at which the loan
would be taken, and then called upon the persons pre-
sent to make their biddings. Only one bidding was
made, viz., by Messrs. Rothschild, Brothers, Bandon,
and Arno de Saint Didier, on behalf of the receivers-
general, and Messrs. Hottinguer and Co., whose joint
offer was at the price of 78E 52c. for every three francs
of Relates. The contractors entered into all the gua-
rantees required Ly the Minister's decree, and paid into
the Caine des Consignations a deposit of 5,002,000 E
The various formalities having been complied with, the
Minister declared that the minimum had been attained,
and adjudged the loan to the parties tendering. On
this the assembly broke up.
In reference to the loan, the Commerce says :
" The new loan rose on Monday at the Bourse to
81E, which is a premium of 2f. 50e. on the price at
which it was taken ; and, considering the advantages
secured to the contractors,
this price is low in propor-
tion to the quotation of the Three per Cents. What,will
the Chamber say to the way in which H. Humann has
watched over the interests of the Treasury in this affair?
He has sold Three per Cents. at 78f. 52c., and will not
have received the whole of the money before the 7th
of October in the next year, whilst ho was purchasing
with the ready money for the sinking fund at 79f. 50c.
The Bourse on
Monday presented a curious spec-
tacle. The contractors of the lean, who had been
very reserved in their replies to the applications
made to them by speculators, did not show the same
desire to take in interest in thri- loan.— A-great many
rigour to many political personages who had expressed a
letters were therefore sent out Yesterday-

At Union Hall, Mary Ann Gulliver' was. fully com-
mitted to take her trial fur robbing the premises of James
Horwuod, of Newington. It appeared that the prosecu-
tor and his wife, on their return home on the 13th of
August last, were accosted by the. prisoner, who asked
if they could inform her where she could procure lodgings,
and, believing her to be respectable, and at the sa:ne
time fearing she might fall into bad company, they off red
her shelter till she could find a place, in return fur which
she took the first opportunity of carrying off a vast deal
of property belonging to her benefactors.

THE LATE STRIKE OF MAsoNs.--The
number of fresh masons now at work at the new Houses
of Parliament is 160. The contractors say they will not
require more hands until the spring; therefore, the new
Houses of Parliament are sealed against the Unionist
masons. The works at the Nelson Monument have been
resumed, and in connection with 'them, we may state
that W. Crawshay, Esq., of George-yard, Lombard-
street, iron merchnt, seeing the unpicaSent situation. the
contractors were placed in by the strike of the masons,
and unwilling that public works of art Should be retarded
by their conduct, sent down into the neighbourhood of
his iron mines, situate at Merthyr in Wales, and caused
to be collected 27 first rate granite masons, all of whom
I.e had brought up to London at his own cost. They
arrived in town on Wednesday afternoon, and accom-
panied by one of Mr. Crawshay 's foremen, immediately
waited upon Messrs. Grissell and Peto, and tendered
their services. The contractors; who were most agree-
ably surprised at such an addition to their force; decided
that the men should recommence the works at Trafalgar-
square, the materials used in the Nelson Monument being
granite. They commenced work yesterday morning
and gave great satisfaction. At Woolwich Dockyard,
fresh masons have been taken on, and yesterday there
were 20 at work.

emburg. lie arrived at Arlen on the afternoon of the

STRAND.

Mr, Jacobs, " the Royal Ventriloquist and great Mo-
dern Magician," last night opened this theatre, for the
commencement of his third season in London. He cer-
tainly can have no reason to complain of his reception.
The house was well filled in every part, and the audience
would have been considered as about the most fashionable
that was then assembled in London, if they had not the
great vulgarity and injustice to hiss—aye, to hiss, when the
portrait of the Duke of Wellington was presented to
them in the course of Mr. Jacobs' very skilfully ma-
naged dissolving portraits. It is very difficult to give a
critical analysis of the Conjuror's performance. his already
well known that none of your natural senses_ are of the
least use to a person who once sets a foot within
the- necromantie temple, and Mr. Jacobs does not pro-
fess, like the Mesmerists, to supply us with a sense
Oite equivalent to the five which he has the power of
stealing from us.
Although Ml. Jacobs seems to have an abundance of
y'sdultei, within himself from which he can draw amuse-
Merit. for 'his visitors, he has very judicilusly varied his
evening's entertainment, by the introduction of other
'artists who are, in their respective departments, nearly as
clever as himself. M. Rousseau, the "Equilibrist," and
the three " Patagonian Wonders," furnish ample proof
of the Wizard's magnanimity. It was quite clear that
when he brought them forward he had no selfish ambi-
tion lo be the only wonder of the night. lie deserves
success, and will have it.

TEXAS.

Later advices from Texas confirm some very curious
particulars previously rumoured in the new Republic.
4mong these is the terror inspired at Austin, the new
seat of government, by the approach of about 400 sa-
vages, an event which broke up the sessions in a mo-
ment, immediately after the President had delivered a
message of a flattering character as to the present con-
dition and future prospects of Texas. except only as to
the non-recognition, as yet, of the Republic by Mexico,
and the non-completion of the commercial treaty
with England. Every man, both in the Congress
and the town, was under arms, and kept strict watch
for two days and nearly two nights. Hardly had they
sought repose, on hearing that the Indians had left
their position and retired, before new and astounding
intelligence was brought, to the effect that the savages
had assembled on the opposite side of the town. Thus
matters stood when the last letters left Galveston. A
bandit chief had been killed, and deservedly so, by Lynch
law, near Houston, charged with the murder of many
way-worn travellers, who had sought rest and shelter in
his forest home, which was seated near a road. This
blood-stained criminal was otherwise a wealthy planter,
and had many confederates, some of whom had been
taken; and the sculls, bones, and remains of numerous vic-
tims were found in pits and a well on his estate. Accounts
differ as to the probable effect of the recent revolution in
Mexico on the destinies of Texas. Some contend that
Santa Anna will invade Texas, regardless of his en-
gagement when a prisoner in the hands of the Texans—
" That he would, if liberated, obtain an acknowledge-
ment of Texan independence ;" while others deem an
amicable arrangement certain. But the truth is, nothing
whatever is known as to the intentions of Mexico or her
new ruler on the subject. The cotton crop of Texas is
reported as unusually productive. The executive of
Texas advises active hostilities by a naval force against
Mexico, until Texan independence is acknowledged ;
and a squadron is consequently about to sail from the
ports of Galveston and Matagorda with warlike intent.
London, England, 1841-12-28

SURREY

Our veteran dramatic friend, Davidge, cannot be ac-
eused of having done nothing, at this joyous season of
the year, for the amusement of the Christmas folks on
this side of the water. Like a good caterer, he produced
last night a banquet of which both the serious and the
gay_ might partake; enjoying alike " the feast of reason
and the flow of soul." To be plain: determined
to please all, in addition to the pantomime, so indis-
pensably necessary at Christmas, a new local and inte-
resting drama, founded upon the recent trial of Madame
Laffarge in France, was produced and proved successful.
The piece is written by Mr. G. D. Pitt, and promises,
with a few seasonable alterations and curtailments,
especially in the trial scene, to have a run on this side of
the water. The scenery, by Brunning and Turner, is
excellent, and in admirable keeping with the whole
piece. We would particularly notice the Landscape in
Picardy, the Cottage of Gregoire, the Saloon decorated
for the Marriage Fete, and the Landscape near Glan-
diers. It
.is,,
,unnecessary to enter into , the par-
ticulars of the. piece, as the facts on which it is
founded' have been so recently before our readers;
indeed, were it necessary, it would be almost impossible,
from the noise and confusion that prevailed in the house,
which was crowded, as usual at this sewn of the year,
to the ceiling. Of the pantomime we cannot speak too
favourably ; it will, however, suffice to say it was pro-
duced under the entire direction of Mr. B. Honner, sup-
ported by Mr. Ellett and assistants ; that the music is
by Jolly, the scenery by Turner and Gordon, and that
it bears the appropriate title, at this season of the year, of
Harlequin and the Ice Queen, or Jack Frost and King Thaw.
The scenery is splendid, especially the Ice Queen's Palace,
King Thaw's Dominions and Palace, the Realms of Fri-
gidona, the Clown's Political Gallery, and, though last
not least, Brunning's Panorama, commencing at the New
London Bridge, and ending at Bolougne. Many of the
trickc, are entirely new, and excellent of their kind, and
were made the most of by M. Huline, as Harlequin, M.
Rochez, as Patch, Harlequin's lacquey, M. Lehman, as
Pantaloon, and by Signor Felix Carlo as Flip, the Contor-
tionist. The evolutions of these gentlemen are really
astonishing, and we trust that Davidge will find he has
played a profitable card in securing their services. Miss
Sharpe was an admirable Columbine, and Buckingham
an active Clown.

CITY SOBRIETY.--Frog the circumstance of
Saturday
being Christmas-day, the reports brought by
the police under the notice of the City Magistrates em-
braced two days and two nights, notwithstanding which,
no more than five charges of drunkenness and disorder
appeared in the charge-sheets for their adjudication.
This extraordinary event is ascribed by the Aldermen
to the efficacy of the Police Bill, particularly to that
clause which shuts up the public-houses from twelve at
night on Saturday till one next day, and includes in the
same regulation the Christmas-day and Good Friday,
and the night preceding each of • these great holidays.
The vigilance of the City police officers, under the ac-
tive control of the City Commissioner, and the peremp-
tory fines inflicted, also greatly contribute to this excel-
lent change.
We are requested to state, that that fashionable
periodical, " Blackwood's Lady's Magazine," is about to
be published for the new year, with additional charms,
and considerably enlarged ; and, as this is the season
when the public are seeking for the best and cheapest
monthly works, the proprietors of the "Lady's Black-
wood's Magazine of Fashion and Literature" are deter-
mined to take the lead, and publish a work whose pages
will be replete with vigour and taste, calculated to enrich
the female mind, and to blend treasures of information
with amusement. The embellishments are to be of the
first order of excellence, and each number will contain
from three to four plates of the newest Parisian fashions,
a line steel engraving of "Belgian scenery," and nearly
200 royal Bvo. pages of letter-press, equal to four other
magazines for its brilliant literature and fashions. The
subscription is 2s. monthly, and the work is supplied by
all booksellers in the United Kingdom.
