This was an action brought by the plaintiff to recover •
mages against the defendant, fur having slanderously iatpute4
to him. that he had been guilty of a felony. The facts of the
case were briefly as follows :—The def. ndant, To.nkins. in 1835,
let a shed to the plaintiff, who was a carpenter, at a rent of
81. per annum, and the terms of the agreement were, that
Eyres should put the shed in thorough repair. In the course
of the'rep.dr, the plaintiff removed a quantity Of lead; which'
he sold—the removal took place in open day, and with the
knowledge of the defendant's wife, who lent Ayres a truck for
the purpose. After a lapse of two or three years therpariies
had some disagreement, and the defendant charged plaintiff
with having stolen the lead from his premises. 'I he charge
was made in the public street, and afterwards at a tav rn in
the neighbourhood, which both parties wore in the habit of
frequenting. The defendant p eaded a justification.
Mr. Platt appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Jervis for the
defendant.

Several witnesses were examined, who proved the facts of
the case as stated by the Learned Counsel. It was also shown
that an ill-feeling existed between the plaintiff-and defendan*.
Lord DENMAN, in. summing up the case to the Jury, said,
it could not be denied that the slanderous words had been used
by the plar,tiff on sever41 occasions, and perhaps there might
have beeh some doubt that the defendant meant to impute a
felony, the whole transaction being known in the neighbour •
hood, but he had chosen to put a ju•tifica!icn on the record,
alleging that the plaintiff had committed a felony, and that he
should prove it. Now it was clear that there was not the bast
pretence for imputing a felony to the plaintiff, and it would be
for the Jury to say, under all the circumstcnces, what damages
the plaintiff was entitled to.

The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff, damages 40s

COMMON PLEAS.-(THIS DAY.)
TRIAL AT BAR.
TADDOCK V. FORRESTER.

This case, which occupied the whole of yesterday, was re-
sumed this morning. The plaintiff having waived the ques-
tion of right, admitting that as copyholdor he had no claim to
the royal ies, and could not bar the lord of the Manor en-
ti ring on the land and sinking shafts, the only question that
remained was that of compensation.
After hearing plaintiff's Counsel in reply, the LORD CHIEF
JUSTICE summed up, and the Jury found for the defendants on
the remaining issues.

CRIMINAL COURT-(THIS DAY.)

OLD COURI:

James Armstrong, labourer, 18, was indicted for having
feloniously stolen one watch, two seals, two keys, and some
money, the property of Mr. William Neale, of Windsor.
It appeared that the prisoner had been employed by the
prosecutor as a labourer, and, on the day in question, the pro-
secutor had gone to church, and, on his return, found that
his room door had been broken open, and the articles named
in the indictment gone. A pawnbroker proved that the pri-
soner had attempted to pledge a watch, but from questions
he put to the prisoner, he thought it his duty to detain the
watch, which had-since been ascertained to bating to the
prosecutor.
The prisoner was found guilty, and sentenced to twelve
morn hs' imprisonment and hard labour.

Henry Weston, 25, was indicted for feloniously stealing
several silver spoons and forks, one fish slice, and a coat, value
51., the property of Mr. James Mitchell, his master.
The prisoner was a servant to Mr. Mitchell, and had taken
advantage of his absence, and committed the robbery of which
ho stood charged. After having pledged the at tides, he wrote
a letter to Mr. Mitchell, asking his forgiveness, as he hid been
led astray by bad company.
The Jury at once found the prisoner guilty, and he was sen-
tenced to twelve months imprisonment, with hard labour.
Jane White, 36, was indicted for feloniously stea'ing a large
quantity of woollen cloth, the property of Mr. William Henry
Woodliall, her master.

The prisoner had been in the service of the prcsecutor for
upwards of fifteen months, and had frequently been left in charge
of the premises.
The Jury found the prisoner guilty, and the Recorder in pass-
ing sentence said, that cases of this description were of so fre-
quent occurrence that he felt it his duty to tr ake an example of
th? prisoner, and should therefore sentence her to transporta-
tion, for seven years.

THE MARK ETS.-(THIS DAY.)
COLONIAL MARKET.

The prices of most descriptions of produce were firm. biit
there was no particular spirit in the biddings at the public sale,
and a large proportion of the goods put up was bought in. Rum
and Sugar for home use, was rather firmer, and, in some caws,
a slight advance was obtained. Coffee dull, and the terms
lower. Pepper brought full prices. Cassia Ligkea advanced
Is. to 2rt. pe, cwt. Rice steady, but the transactions were very
dull, and confined to middling Bengal at about 12s. per cwt.
Cotton very quiet, and a shade lower.
TEA MARKET.

There was little demand for free trade, but prices were firm
Company's Congou was offered Is. Mid. cash.
TALLOW MARKET.

The demand was dull for all kinds, and prices were barely
supported, sellers of P. Y. Candle at 47s. 6d. on the spot, and
and 48s. 3d. for last three months.
WHI l'ECHkPEL HAY MARKET.

Our supply was but moderate, the trade brisk, the finest
qualities realizing our highest quotations, and in sonic in-
stances rather more was obtained; the middling and ordinary
sorts met with a good demand. Clover 4/. to 51. 18s.
Meadow flay 3/. 10s. to 4/. 18s. Straw 1/. 15s. to 11. 18s.

VACCINATION.—A Bill has been introduced
into the Commons to amend an " Act to extend the practice
of Vaccination." No express provision having been made in
that Act to defray the expenses of carrying the same into exe-
cution, the Bill authorises the Guardians to defray these out of
the poor-rate, and at the same time declares that the vaccina-
tion or the surgical or medical assistance incident to vaccination
of any person resident in any union or parish, shall not be con-
sidered parochial relief.
MORE " CHURCH-RATE " VICTIMS ! On
Wednesday last citations from the Court of " Charles James,
by Divine permission, Lord Bishop of London," were served
upon seven inhabitants of Hackney, at the suit of the Church-
wardens, for the recovery of " divers sums of money " levied on
the said inhabitants for the support of the Established Church!
STRANGE OCCURRENCE.---On Sunday last,

. ,
during the afternoon service, as the preacher in one of the Es-
tablished Churches was about to offer up prayers for the con-
gregation, the precentor
.gave out the following notice:—
" A young man, entering into business, earnestly solicits the
prayers of this congregation,"—Dundee Advertiser.

NEWBURY.—The effects of the Great Western
Railway are severely felt in this town and neighbourhood, par-
ticularly Sreenhamland. The spacious premises cf the
esti Hotel are closed, and business is completely at a standstill;
the other inns must also feel the loss of the coaches. Previous

to the opening of the railway nearly 30 coaches ran through
Speenhamland in the spice of 24 hours ; the number is now
reduced to six I The large and populous village of Thatcham,
situated about three miles from this town, is nearly deserted ;
eight coaches used formerly to change horses and coachmen
there, consequently there were 16 regular coachmen and three
or four odd ones residing at that place, besides horsekerrees,
&c. Only two coaches now change there, and not only the
coaches are gone, but the road waggons are also taken off, and
numbers are thrown out of employ in consequence of several
failures in the small trade, and the little tradesmen are fast re-
ducing to the level of tine pauper classes. Great changes like
those effected railways almost always involve partiacincon-
venience, loss, and suffering, until society places itself in har-
mony with its new relation,.
DEATH OF PROFESSOR. THOMSON.--It iS
with regret we announce the death of John Thomson, Esq.,
Professor of Music in our Univeraity,'which took place at his
house in • Howe-street, yesterday afternoon. Since the last
College concert, Professor Thomson had been in rather a weak
state of health, brought on in a great measnre by his exertions
on that occasion ; but it was not until the last three or four
weeks that his disease (dropsy( assumed a fatal tendency. Mr.
Thomson was the first Professor appointed under the liberal
endowment of the late General Reid, and the appointment.
gave universal satisfaction to the musical public, and conferred
credit on the patrons of the Chair.—Edinburgh Courant of
Saturday.
EXTRACT FROM A LETTER FROM THE
MAYOn OF A GREAT MANUFACTURING TOWF.:--11AY 9,

1841.—I feel it a duty to inform you that Lord John Russell's
speech on Friday night has produced a greater effect than any
speech delivered from the Ministerial bench for years past.
We think it will produce upon the masses a powerful effect.
ft is the first time that a Minister of the Crown has insisted
upon the attention of Parliament being directed to our starving
population at home, instead of acquiesing in the fashionable
philanthropy of the day ; however Dr. Lushingtcn and
other kind, but weak men, may be deceived, the people are
not to be deceived—they feel that the philanthropy and
benevolence which have been exercised in favour of the sl ive
have been at the expense of the masses, and paid for out of
the general taxation of the country—it has been a sore
grievance with the poorer classes for many years, and I Lave
h: and them express themselves strongly many times about it.
sound abolitionists we all are here, but we all feel that the
only effective check to slavery will be by the civilization of the
African states, Iv making it the interest of the native govern-
ments to retain labour at home instead of vending labourers.
I am heartily pleated that the first man who has dared pub-
licly to advocate claims of the worse than slaves (so far as corn •
fort and subsistence is concerned) amongst our own popula-
ti-n, is a British Minister, Lord John Russell. I have seen
to-day members of the Society of Friends here, and I am glad
to find that they are not iofluenced by the reasoning that has
rdsled Dr. Lushington Tose.y that we lament his course is
to give you but a faint idea of our feelings. We grieve that at
a crisis like thi,, such a man should peril the well being of his
country, and allow himself to be made the tool of the enemies
of that emancipation which he has so consistently advocated.
Benevolence to be useful should be practical.
HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.—The celebrated
Mademoiselle Rachel, the Melpomene of the modern French
stage, appeared for the first time before an English audience
in the character of Hermione in the Andromaque of Racine;
having been engaged by M. Laporte, with a French compa y,
to give a series of subscription performances during the present
month. It is only about four years ago, we think, that this
young lady made her first appearance at the Theatre Francais,
when, by the force of her genius, she effected a revolution in ti:e
state of the stage by reving the old classical drama, which, for
a long time, had given way to the romantic and melodramatic

of our great tragic actresses have exhibited. Her features,
however, speak, and her eyes lighten, while the impassioned

PARKS AND ENCLOSURES.
EAST LONDON.
TO THE. EDITOR OF THE SUN.
As one who long in populous city pent," &c. &c.
SIR,—Your Correspondent, a Resident of
the Tower Hamlets," has confirmed me in some
opinions partly formed some time ago, and with
a reference to the most confined suburbs of Lon-
don and those least favoured by circumstances,
which I beg permission, in the first instance, to
submit through your widely disseminated paper.
To prove to you that I think this the very last
subject which ought to partake of a political com-
plexion, I will candidly avow that on the subjects
which you are at present discussing I differ from
you toto ccelo. Your Correspondent specifies se-
veral tracts of land, each of which comes far short
of what, I believe, were the proposed dimen-
sions of " the Parks"-200 armes. It has also
been stated, I am sure correctly, that there
would be great difficulty in finding a single tract
which would not be from two to three miles dis-
tant from several parts of the whole, formed by
Bethnal-green, Shoreditch, Spitallields, White-
chapel, with part of Stepney, not to mention
the " long shore" line. This brings me• to my
point. Why one Park or enclosure only—why
net three, or more? Division here would be so
far from frittering away the good, that it would
Multiply it tenfbld. _ _

Ina case where things cannot be done on a
gigantic scale, us in a " Park" of 2,000 acres
and upwards, it is surprising how much can be
done by " laying out" with a limited space.
" Example is better than precept." I will refer
your readers to a place not very distant or un-
known—Brighton, to the " Royal Gardens" be-
yond the New Church, and to the " Park." In
the former the limits are entirely lost sight of,
from the beautiful diqwsition of the ground.
The latter has a wild and spacious appearance,
and certainly would conveniently hold 30,000 or
40,000 persons ; yet, if I recollect right, though
double the size of the former, it only includes
sixteen acres.

Like the besieged cook, in the " Fortunes of
Nigel," a person of taste can do a great deal
with small means. " Capability Brown" would
not have wished for more than 25 acres. Trees—
those of quickest growth—may be. planted,—an
artificial precipice may be formed--or a sunken
level, to be filled with water; and with the earth
excavated, a " mound " may be formed 40 or 50
feet high, and upwards, from whence not only
a view, but, what is here of intense importance,
" a snuff of fresh air" may be obtained. In
fact, large erections of this class, even without a
" Park," would be of the utmost value.
The primary expense of all this would be con-
siderable ; but, like Zeuxis' paintings, it would
last, with moderate care. Of the tenacity of
earth-works, where no care has been used, many
an ancient auger, Valium, and castrunz, affords
incontestible proof.
The object is not to form a " public establish-
ment," with a " staff," butto do the greatest goOd
for the multitude, with whatever means can be
procured. Even if the expense ofkeeping up'se-
veral proved more, it ought not to deter. I
should be glad to live to see this idea spread ;
that other suburbs of London, as well as towns
in the country, where it was needed, should
each have its "little Park," where a grandfather
could sit on a bench on a summer's eve, and tell
his grandson of " the things that are gone"—
places loved in youth, and loved for memories in
age, when the spirit is but half of this world,
and ]ongs to rejoin the friends of its youth.
Don't call either of these by such a conceited
term as has been used at Derby—arboretum,
(" arbour eat'em !" I believe the honest rustics
term it): to one who has not had the advantage
or accident of a clasFical education, this conveys
as clear an idea as abracadabra would, or Xeno-
phon's flaWetc-oc in the original Greek. Call
it by the old English word, a Parh, which is
quite sufficient to convey the idea of meadow,
wood, water, hill, or valley.
I am; Sir, yours respectfully,•
P.

from it one or two of the author's reminiscences
referring to the period—on which he lingers with
, evident fondness—when he was residing with
the late Earl of Moira at Donington Park :—
The Count D'Artois, or Monsieur, I had met in the year
1802-3, at Doningtcn Park, the seat of the Earl of Moira,
under whose princely roof I used often and king, in
in those days, to find a most hospitable home. A small party of
distinguished French emigrants were already staying on a visit
in the house when Monsieur and his suite arrived ; and among
those were the present King of France and his two brothev,
the Due de Montpensier, and the Comte de Beaujolais.
Some doubt and uneasiness had, I remember, been felt by
the two latter brothers, as to the reception they were likely
to encounter from the new guest ; and as, in those times, a
cropped and unpowdered head was regarded generally as a
symbol of Jacobinism, the Comte Beaujolais. who, 1.ke many
other young men, wore his hair in this fashion, thought it, on
the present occasion, most prudent, in order to avoid all risk
of (Alice, not only to put powder in his hair, but also to pro-
vide himself with an artificial queue. This measure of pre-
caution, however, led to a slight incident after dinner, which,
though not very royal or dignified, was at least creditable to,
the sot ial good humour of the future Charles X. On the de-
parture of the ladies from the dining-room, we had hardly
sa:Ited ourselves in the old-fashioned style, round the fire,
when Monsieur, who had happened to place himself
next to Beaujolais, caught a glimpse of the aseititiou tail
—which, having been rather carelessly ut on, had a good
deal straggled out of it,. place. With a sort of scream of jocu-
lar pleasure, as ifdelighted at the discovery, Monsieur seized
the stray appendage, and, bringing it round into full view, to
the great amusement of the whole company,, popped it into.•
- poor grinning Beaujolais' mouth.
On one of the evenings of this short visit of Monsieur, I re-
member Curran arriving unexpectedly, on his way to London ;
and, having come too late for dinner, he joined our party in
the evening. As the foreign portion of the company was then
quite new to him, I was able ti be useful, by informing him of
the names, rank, and other particulars of the party he found
assembled, from Monsieur himself down to the old Duc de
Lorge and the Baron de Rolle. When I had gone through
the whole list, " Ah, poor fellows!" he exclaimed, with a mix-
ture of fun and pathos in his look, truly Irish, " Poor fellows
all dismounted cavalry !"
On the last evening of Monsieur's stay, 1 was made to sing
for him, among other songs, " Farewell, Bessy !" one of my
earliest attempts at musical composition. As soon as I had
finished, he paid me the compliment of reading aloud the
words vs written under the music; and most royal havoc did
be make, as to this day I remember, of whatever little sense or
metre they could boast,

AltBONIC ACID GAS.—This gas, which is
present in almost every production of nature—animal, vege-
table, and miueral—has some very remarkable properties ; be-
sides which, it is the only ingredient in the majority of what is
sold as soda water. Originally in gaseous form, it is by ex-
treme pressure reduced to that of a fluid, and if in that state
allowed to escape from the containing vessel by a stop-cock
into a small circular box, becomes a snow-white powdered
solid, intensely cold; so cold, in fact, is it, that with a few
drops of spirits of wine added, it will instaneously freeze and
solidify mercury. These facts were exemplified in a very sa-
tisfactory and polled manner, by experiment, at a lecture de-
livered on Frid ty evening at the Royal Institution, on the ma-
nufact-ore a soda water.

DEATH OF SIR FREDERICK JOHNSTONX.--
Thi3 Inc'ancholy event was on Monday the general subject of
conversation. The circumstances, as currently stated and
generally believed in the best-informed circles, were as follow :
—Sir Frederick, in company with Mr. P.orthwick. was re-

some dAYN Wain a dinner party at a gentleman's seat a few

Mr. BortimiCk lying on the ground atiO bleeding profusely. The
latter took him up on his hprae and conveyed him to Eglinton
Castle, where the nuk,rtunate Baronet expired soon after his sus-
rival. At alannhad previously been given at the Castle by Sir
Frederic; 's hOrse gallopping up to the stables witttunt a rid, r ,
