TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIR,—We are much surprised that the editor of the Medical
Gazette, is his last number of February 12, at page 285,
should attempt to screen Dr. Sir Theodore de Mayerne from
participation in the murder of Sir Thomas Overbury by
poison administered " medicinally," and this, too, in the face
of such an eminent jurist as Mr. Amos. As to Mayerne being
retained in the King's service after the death of Overbury and
Prince Henry (which is relied upon by the Gazette as proof
of his innocence); it is, in our judgment, no inference what-
ever in his favour, but rather the contrary, since it was the
King's interest tef keep the poisoning a secret. In conclu-
sion, we beg to )stitte that we have shown, in all their bear-
ings, by an illustration, the dangers to which all classes of
her Majesty's subjects are exposed so long as deadly chemical
preparations ard*ld out " medicinally," whether by doctors
or no doctors, the whole of which is made palpable to the
meanest capacity. The illustration may be had at the
Hygeist office, 368, Strand, London, and, in our opinion,
should be in the possession of every individual.—We are, Sir,
your obedient servants, the Members of the British College
of Health, for and on behalf of Hygeists.—Feb. 15, 1847.

OF WESTMINSTER.

- TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sin,—ls Mr. Cochrane the same person as "Don Juan de
Vega," or is he not ? If he be the same person, then the
violated hospitality and outraged kindness shown to him at
Brighton, Canterbury, Dover, and other places, will rise up
in judgment against him, sad serve as a warning to the
electors of Westminster not to confide in any such wander-
ing personator. If he be not Juan de Vega, then why not
disown it? Let Mr. Cochrane beware, if he be the fraudulent
Spanish refugee that Juan de Vega pretended to be, that he
does not meet such an exposé as he well deserves, if identical
with that vagabond.—Yours, an Elector, J. C.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Feb. 16.

Sittings at Guildhall, before the LORD CHIEF- JUSTICE and

labour done in advertising the prospectus of the company.
The scheme in question was one of the many companies pro-
jected in the autumn of 1845.

Mr. Whateley and Mr. James were for the plaintiff; Mr.
Boles fot the defendant.

Mr. WHATELEy having briefly stated the case, proceeded
:o cell his witnesses.

The principal witness was Mr. Garbett, solicitor, of Wel-
lington, one of the proprietors of the company. His evidence
was to the effect that the defendant, through his brother,
had given his consent to be a provisional director, and that
subsequently he was appointed a member of the committee of
management. Ile also deposed that on the 27th of October
the defendant was present with him at the offices, Bond-
court, walbrook, and assisted in looking over the applica-
tions for shares. This, however, was not a regular meeting
of the committee. On the sth of November a regular

from other workers in Bolton and in Huddersfield ; by Mr.
Blackburn, from Warrington ; by an lion. Member from
shopkeepers and others at Warrington; by Mr. Ferrand,
from Bradford; and from a working man in Manches-
ter, setting forth that he had been engaged for
twenty years in weaving cotton, that he was convinced the
Bill would expel the heartburnings which had so long
existed setween the employer and the employed, and that
many middle-aged men who had been compelled to leave
their work, in consequence of the protracted hours, would
return to it if the Bill were passed into a law. Me also
wished to know from him (Mr. Ferrand) if he could pre-
sent his petition to the House without his name being made
public—(Hear, hear, and laughter)—as if it were made public
he considered that he might suffer some injury. Mr. B. B,
Cabbell and Mr. Fielden presented a number Of petitions to
the same effect.

urpose of having them disposed of by auction. Upon
the day of sale the harp in question was sold to the
plaintiff for the sum of fifteen guineas. Subsequently
the harp was recognised by Mrs. Chappell as
her property, and proceedings were instituted by
her against the plaintiff for the purpose of com-
pelling him to give up to her the property, which
she at length obtained possession of. The present
action was brought to recover for the defendant the
sum paid for the harp, and also the sum of four
guineas, being the amount of the expenses to which
the plaintiff had been put by the party claiming the
property.
The facts of the case were admitted on both sides,
and Mr. Humener stated that he was quite content
that the case should be decided by three of the jurors,
who were present in the box.
Baron PLATT said that it struck him that if any
person assumed to sell property to any other there
was at least an assumed implication either of the
rightful possession .3f the property by the vendor, or
of a proper authorization of the owner to dispose of
the same.
A verdict was subsequently taken by consent for
the sum of 17 guineas, with liberty for the defendant
to move to enter a nonsuit.

COMMON PLEAS.—(THIS DAY.)
(Sittings in Banco.)

NON-ATTENDANCE OF COUNSEL-FIELD V. MAC-

KENZIE-PUBLIC OFFICER.

Mr. WATSON attended to show cause why a writ
of scire facias should not issue against Mr. John
Brook, on a judgment obtained against the defendant,
Daniel Mackenzie, as a public officer of the New-
castle-upon-Tyne Joint-Stock Banking Company.
Mr. Martin and Mr. Hill were understood to be
engaged on the other side, and a message was sent
to them, 'requesting their attendance. The answer
brought back by the messenger was, that neither of
those Learned Gentlemen, who were engaged in other
courts, knew whether or not they were engaged in
the case, but that they were desirous that it should be
adjourned until to-morrow.
The CHIEF JUSTICE said, when a counsel stated he
did not know whether or not he was instructed in a
particular case, the usual inference was that he was
not instructed ; and, as no counsel attended on the
other side, he should order the case to be struck out
of the list.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE—WEDNESDAY.
Coastwise, and by land carriage, the arrivals of
English Wheat, this week, have been on a fair average
scale. To-day the show of samples was small. Selected
qualities of both red and white, were in steady request,
at fully Monday's quotations. In all other kinds the
business transacted was trifling, at late rates. The
supply of foreign Wheat on offer was not very exten-
sive. On the whole the trade was slow, but we can
notice no alteration in value. The best parcels of Eng-
lish Barley sold at lull prices ; but the middling and in-
ferior kinds might have been purchased on somewhat
easier terms. The Malt trade was exceeding,ly inactievej
at barely late currencies. Oats were selling at '"
prices ; but all other articles commanded very little at-
tention.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE

PORTSMOUTIT Nov. 2.—The Terrible left at Lisbon
on the 28th ult., the following ships, viz. :—St.
Vincent, Queen, Vengeance, Canopus, Caledonia,
Avenger, Dragon Odin, and Jackal. Sir H. Sey-
mour and Lady Clinton, from the Howe, on the de-
parture of the Queen Dowager for Aladeira, have
come home in the Terrible. The Queen Dowager
landed on the 26th ult., at seven o'clock A.m., for the
purpose of visiting Cintra, and returned to the Howe
about sunset. On the 26th ult., at two o'clock P.M.,
the Terrible took the Howe in tow, the vessels of war
lying in the Tagus manned yards and gave three
cheers on the departure of her Majesty. At five
o clock P.M., when off the bar, a heavy sea was expe-
rienced by the two vessels, causing both hawsers to
part, and compelling the Howe to anchor. Every
endeavour was made, but in vain, to retake the
Howe in tow. The Terrible ultimately anchored
ahead of the Howe, keeping her fires up until morn-
ing, when both vessels again weighed, the Howe for
Madeira, under sail, and the Terrible up the river.
The Terrible came into harbour this afternoon and
landed the marines, who have joined the division
head-quarters. The Rhadamanthus steamer sailed
this morning for the eastward with the men who
brought the Blenheim round to this port. The
Castor, 36, Captain Sir C. Graham, C. 8., arrived
this afternoon at half-past three o'clock, from the
East Indies.

SHEERNESS, Nov. I.—The Lucifer is to be pre-
pared for immediate service. The Salamander is to
be sent to Woolwich when ready to receive her
machinery. She will then return here to be com-
pleted for sea, and be prepared for immediate com-
missioning. The Cyclops is to be rigged and reported
when ready for commission, But ships are not in
future to be reported as fit for commission till they
are in every respect ready to receive their cross.
Mr. J. Eddy, boatswain, of this yard has been super-
annuated on a pension of 125/. per annum. He was
one of Nelson's boatswains, and was on board the
Monarch at the memorable bombardment of Copen-
hagen. He now retires after nearly 50 years in her
Majesty's service.
