A MAN
SAVED FROM DROWNING BY THE
SAGACITY OF A Doc. On Tuesday morning, about four
o'clock, as police-eetistab:e Kett, 54, was on his beat in
Whitcfriars, near the Temple, his attention was drawn to
the loud and continued barking of a dog, and on proceed-
ing to Napier's Grand Junction Coal Wharf he discovered
a man lying upon his back in the mud, in which be was
impartially imbedded. The dog was using every effort in
his power to arouse him to a sense of his situation by al-
tornately barking and pulling him by the collar of his coat.
The policeman, having obtained assistance, succeeded in
dragging the man ashore, when it was discovered that he
was in a state of intoxication. He was con,eyed to the
Fieet-sttect station-house, but it was sonic hours before he
was brought to a state 6f consciousness. len he said that
he had hoen drinking in the ne;ghbourhood, and he sup-
posed that, on coining out into the air, had suddenly
affected him, and he must have walked into the wharf. It
Was fortunately neap tide at the time. 'The dog is the
property of the owners of the wharf.l

GUILDHALL.

Henry Paine, dressed as a cab-driver, was placed at the
bar before Mr. Alderman White, charged with robbery.
Thomas John Bailey said be was the proprietor of a
coffee-house in Smithfield, and a gentleman having ten-
dered him a half-sovereign in payment for some refresh-
ments, he was about to go and get it changed, when the
prisoner, who was also in the room at the time, offered to
give him change. The prosecutor then went on to state,
amidst the laughter of every person in Court, the worthy
A!derman himself not even retaining his gravity, that the
prisoner took the half-sovereign between his fore-finger
and thumb, and turning back his head, " bolted" it with
as much facility as if it were one of Morison's aperients ;
at the same time, putting his hand into one of the pockets
of his nether garment, he pulled out three old buttons, and
bowing very lowly to him (prosecutor) said, " Take your
change out of that, Mr. Ferguson."
The prisoner, who was well-known as a bad character to
the Police, was fully committed for trial.
A well-dressed man, of gentlemanly manners, was
charged with stealing a coat in the Exchequ.r Court, or.
Tuesday. at Guildhall.
John Peake, a messenger to the Court, said that his at-
tention was drawn to the prisoner by seeing him leaning
rather suspiciously over the back of the seats allotted to
the Counsel, where a coat was lying. Ile took off a cloak
which he wore, and placed it beside the coat, and in a few
minutes after he threw both across his arm, and coolly
walked out of the Court, when he was given into custody.
In consequence of a notice posted in the Hill it was found
to be the property of Mr. Worthington, a solicitor of
Gray's Inn.
That gentleman stepped forward and requested that the
case might be disposed of summarily, as he had to leave
town on professional business.
The prisoner, who refused to give any information as to
hi 3 connections or way of life, was committed for one
month to the House of Correction.

Allen, London, 1640.
Those who desire to gain an insight into the
nature of the productive resources of our great
Eastern Colonies, which offer an unbounded field
fcr enterprise and speculation, will find much to
ansv,er their purpose in this volume, which enters
into minute details on the subject., and suggEsts
many schemes by which the revenue we at pre-
sent draw from India may be greatly inipioved.
The author is a gentleman named Rode, who has
been long resident in the East, and appears to have
paid close attention to every branch of the prolific
theme, on which he descants. Speaking incidentally
of the culture of the poppy, of which, in its re:
pared form of opium, we have heard so muchlately, Mr. Royle tells us, that the
liin-
doos are remarkable for their skit: in pitrring
this article. " Though in the preparation of many
of the valued articles of commerce," he obse ry
" the Hindoos preceded most nations, yet they hay.'
usually been surpassed, whenever European
and energy have been applied to the improvements
of these discoveries. It is remarkable, therefore, to
find that with opium they should have attained ,
complete success, and this, too, without the aid 01,
European science. But, in the preparation Or
es,
opium; nature does everthing, and man has 0011 1°
wait patiently and carefully to collect the secretions
of her laboratory." The cultivation of the poPord
appears to require great attention, such as gne
soil, manure, and also careful management of the
irrigation. The strength of the juice depends
upon the quantity of moisture, and upon that of
the dew which falls upon the surface of the capsule'
A deficiency of dew prevents the proper flow of the
milk, while an excess, besides washing off the milk'
causes additional mischief, by separating the s,°l,`"
ble from the insoluble parts of the opium. lue
most generally interesting portions of the volton e
are those which refer to the culture of silk in India'

PATENT BRANDY versus COGNAC.
THE approach of that season of the year which
has usually brought with it an increases demand fcr
Spirits, induces J. T. BETTS and CO. to renew in the recol-
lection of their friends and the public, that their Patent Brandy
not only leaves behind all imitations of the foreign article, but
even the lower qualities of French Brandy ; while its flavour
vies with that of the best qualities of Cognac ; and it is at the
same time a more pure ar.d wholesome Spirit.
The only establishment of J. T. /SETTS and Co. is the
Distillery, No. 7. Smithfield-bars, where Two Gallons and
upwards mw be obtained, either pale or coloured, at Eight een
Shillings per Gallon, for Cash on Delivery.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
No Liverpool Cotton List has been received as yet.

We are without any arrivals this morning of come-
quenence, with the exception of the express from Paris,
which brings the interesting detains of the funeral of the
Emperor Napoleon, which passed off without any dis-
til! bance.

The French Papers received this morning, have a report
addressed to the Minister of Marine and Colonies, dated
the 30th of July, in which the Governot of Bourbon gives
an account of the expedition under the command of the
Captain of the corvette La►oque de Chanfray, commandant
of the brig Lancer, stating that the object of his expedi-
tion was to take vengeance for the assassination committed
by the inhabitants of Senagam (on the side of Sumatra),
on the person of Sieur Lues, second in command of the
Comte de Paris, belonging to the commerce of Marseilles.
Two Malay villages were burned; but the expedition has
to regret M. Nigny of the first class, the Masters Roza-
guotte and Delarne, who were drowned. The chastise-
ment inflicted on the inhabitants of Senagam was prompt
and terrible (says the Messager), and it is hoped will pre-
vent any further crimes taking place.
We have received the Journal of Antwerp of yesterday's
date :

BOURSE OF AMSTERDAM, DEC. 14. —The Actions of the
Society of Commerce continue to be offered, and have
again lowered 1 per cent. ; opened at 1661, and at this
price they were firm. This fall, with the weakness of the
Funds at Paris, caused our National Funds to lower.
The Foreign Funds were calm ; Ardoin's fell to 221 1-16th ;
Coupons, 1811 ; the New Russian Loan was done at 861

GUILIHA►LL.-(THIS DAT).

BOBBgRY DY A BROTHER —George Tucker, and
Robert Bennett were plated at the liar, charged with
stealing a plank of mahogany, the property of John
S. Tucker, the brother of the prisoner, George Tucker.
The prosecutor stated that lie was a cabinetmaker,
carrying on business in Chapel-street, Cripplb-
gate. On Tuesday last he had in three planks
of mahogany, one of which was missed on Wednesday
morning. Suspicion fell upon the prisoner Bennett ;who
was in the prosecutor's employ as an errand boy, and ul-
timately he admitted that be assisted William Tucker,
the prosecutor's brother, in removing it. On the night
of Tuesday information was given to the police, who
arrested the prisoner, George Tucker, who had assisted
William Tucker in taking the mahogany to Robert
Lenny, a turner, in order to have it manufactured into
bidet legs.
R•.bert Lenny stated that the prisoner George
Tucker, and William Tucker, who is not yet in custody,
brought the mahogany produced to his premises, and
stated that it was their property, and that they wished to
have it turned. They subsequently came to know if
the work was finished. Shortly after this second visit
the sister of the prisoner Tucker came to him, and de-
sired him if any person came and asked if he had done
any work for her brothers to deny it. About twenty
1 minutes after the prosecutor came in with the police.
The prisoners were remanded until Tuesday, in order
o give time for the apprehension of William Tucker.
London, England, 1840-01-03

BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

Emanuel Myers, a general dealer, James Baker,
Joseph Linon, and Richard Goulding, well known
thieves, were brought up by Sergeant Pocock, F divi-
sion, charged on suspicion with stealing several packs
of cards, 13 yards of serge, various pieces of silk hand-
kerchiefs, with other articles, and Anne Abraham,
keeper of a broker's shop in Belton-street, Long-acre,
was charged with receiving the same, well knowing them
to have been stolen.

It appeared that from information the constable had
received of a robbery having been committed on Satur-
day night, in the shop of Mr. Watkins, 108, Regent-
street, he went to the house of the female pri-
soner, and saw the three prisoners come out
about nine o'clock the same night, and on Tuesday
observing the prisoner Myers come out, he went up to
him and demanded to know what lie carried in the small
bag which he had under his arm. The prisoner said he
had only a few packs of cards, and on searching there
were found the piece of serge produced, which was
identified by Mr. Watkins's shopman, together with five
packs of cards. The constable, after conveying him to
the station-house, proceeded to the residence of the fe-
male prisoner, where he found several pieces of silk
handkerchiefs, which were identified by the shopman of
Mr. Theyer, 129, Piccadilly, as having been stolen from
his employer's premises about three weeks back. The
other prisoners were subsequently apprehended, and as
none of them could satisfy the Magistrate how the pro-
perty came into their possession, they were remanded
for a week, with the exception of the female prisoner,
who was admitted to bail, herself in 801. and two
sureties in 401. each,
Dennis Harris and Thomas Devercux were charged
with being possessed of skeleton keys, and a picklock,
of which they could not give an account.
Constable 127 F, and another, went at five o'clock
this morning to Regent's-place, Crown-street, Soho, to
search after a man who had committed a felony, when
they met the prisoners coming out of a house, the door
of which was lying open, and on entering they found
the keys produced on the stairs.
The prisoners made a rambling defence, and Mr.
Jardine ordered them to be committed for two months
to hard labour.

New-Year's-Day being observed as a close holi-
day in France, the Paris Journals of Wednesday
for the most part substitute, for ordinary news, re-
miniscences and prognostications, the former of the
past, the latter of the current year. The (-Irina-
dienne, a Royalist organ, is by far the most severe
upon the Government, and takes the gloomiest view
of the present state of France. "It is certain,"
says that Journal, "that the year 1840 falls in the
midst of a universal political crisis which is well
calculated to inspire fear : 969 failures recently ;
bread at 17 sous the four-pound loaf ; the populace
uneasy and without work ; the shops deserted ; the
manufactories motionless—so much for trade. Di--

trust of parties, the dissolution of the Court ; the
annihilation of authority ; the aversion of all opi-
nions for a system which neither knows how to
make peace or war, which allows our sailors to be
insulted, our soldiers to be killed, which is power-
less in France, and laughed at in Europe—so
much for politics." The Capitole, which avows
itself the supporter of Bonapartist principles
and pretensions, instead of confining its retro-
spect of the state of France to one year, takes a
rapid survey of the leading events in the political
history of that nation for a period of half a century,
for the purpose of showing that France was at the
height of her glory
and prosperity during the Im-
perial sway of NAPOLEON. After stating that of
the last fifty years France spent thirty-three in fo-
reign wars,and thirteen years in intestine commotions ; I
that she changed her Government eleven times
and paid sixty milliards of taxes, besides the
tax of blood, the Capitole thus proceeds tc,

MANSION-HOUSE.

The Lord Mayor issued a warrant on the :30th of
December for the apprehension of Thomas Harris, late
of John-street, America-square, merchant, in conse-
quence of the application of Mr. Cleasby, of Broad-
street, merchant. The warrant was put into the hands
of John Forrester, the officer, who immediately went in
search of the accused, but, we understand, learned that
he had left the country.
Mr. Cleasby's statement, which we were not until
now at liberty to publish, was to the effect that Harris
had, in the course of commercial transactions, placed in
his hands bills of lading, and certain East and West
Indian Dock warrants for quantities of hemp, and other
securities of a similar nature ; that on the 30th of De-
cember Harris called upon him for those securities, on
which he (Mr. Cleasby) had advanced 3,000/., and
gave to him checks for the amount upon the banking-
house of Masterman and Co., and that payment of the
checks was refused, upon the ground that there was no
effects.

The following hand-bill was circulated yesterday in
the City :

CAUTION.

Whereas Thomas Harris, late of John-street, Ame-
rica-square, in the city of London, merchant, hath ab-
sconded, having in his possession divers securities and
sums of money, obtained by him under false pretences,
namely, bills of lading for divers quantities of rye, lin-
seed, beans, and wool, on hoard a certain vessel called
the Steffanino, bound to Antwerp, and bills of lading for
divers quantities of iron on board the Gulnare, now bound
for Baltimore ; and also certain East and %Vest India
Dock warrants for divers quantities of hemp, and other
securities of a like nature, by the Sun, marked "P." in
449 bales lying in the East India Dock ; notice is hereby
given, that the said Thomas Harris hath no legal title to
the said securities, and that persons taking the same
from him acquire no legal title therein ; and notice is
requested to be given by any person to whom such bills
of lading, or other securities, may be offered to Mr. H.
H. Hill, solicitor, 12, Copthall-court, Throgmorton-
street, London. . . . .

John Forrester is, it is believed,gone to the Continent
after the fugitive.

GUILDHALL.

CRUELTY TO OMNIBUS HORSES.—An omnibus
driver was summoned at the instance of the Animals'
Friend Society for cruelty to a horse.
Joseph Williams, in the employ of the Society, stated
that on Saturday, 21st December, in the afternoon, he
saw one of the horses in the defendant's omnibus work-
ing uneasily, and shifting from side to side ; he stopped
him, and perceived a raw place as wide as his hand on
the horse's shoulder, on which the collar was pressing.
The collar was covered with blood.

The defendant did not deny the fact ; but said that
the collar was softly padded, and that the horse had not
been used for five days previously, and had only gone
one journey on the occasion in question. He said his
master had had bad luck with his horses.
Mr. Alderman J. JOHNSON said that he considered
it a very proper case to prosecute, and the public were
indebted to the witness for bringing it forward.
The defendant was fined 20s.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

HOME CIRCUIT.—KINGSTON, MARCH 30.
On Saturday, the Rev. Mr. Newlands, the Scotch
clergyman, whose case has been before alluded to, attended
in the Crown Court, before Mr. Justice Littledale, to re-
ceive the sentence of the Court upon an indictment for
having forcibly entered upon certain premises violently and
with the strong hand, and of which offence he had been
found guilty by the Jury.
It will be remembered that the defendant moved the
Court in arrest of judgment, on the ground that an indict-
ment for a forcible entry would not lie at common law.
The point was subsequently argued by Mr. Chambers, who
went at considerable length into the subject, and cited se-
veral cases on which it had been held that where the forci-
ble entry took place under such circumstances of violence,
as to amount to more than an ordinary trespass, that a❑
indictment would lie at common law, with this distinction,
that the indictment should allege that the trespass was car-
ried into effect by the strong band, and with a multitude of
persons.

Mr. NEWLANDS addressed the Court against the passing
of sentence, and in support of his view of the law.
Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE, however, decided that the in.
dictment was good, and that there was no ground for an
arrest of judgment.
Mr. NEWLANDS then put in an affidavit in mitigation of
punishment. It was to the effect, that in the proceeding
he had taken, he had no desire to break the law, but had
merely acted with a view to assert what he considered his
civil right. He also referred to the fact that a verdict
with 2001. damages had been obtained against him, and
the costs of which were 240/. more ; so that he was liable
to pay the sum of 440/. for the same offence, for which lie
was now called upon to receive punishment, and called
upon the Court, under these circumstances, to inflict
merely a nominal punishment.
Counter affidavits were then put in by Mr. CHAMBERS on
behalf of the prosecutor, when—
The COURT adjudged the defendant to pay a fine of 20s.
and to enter into his own recognizances in the sum of 1001.,
and to keep the peace for twelve months.
The fine was immediately paid, and the required recog-
nizance entered into.

SIGHT AND HEARING.

/THE INVISIBLE OPERATIVE VOICE
JUL CONDUCTOR, effected by the Messrs. S. and B.
SOLOMONS, OPTICIANS and AUItISTS to the ROYAL FA.
MILY, 39, ALBEMARLE-STREET, PICCADILLY, by widch
thousands of deaf persons have been greatly benefited, is the size of a
seven.shilling piece, and when fixed into the cavity of the ear is soft
and easy, and not more perceptible than having a piece of wool in its
place, by which the faintest whisper at a public assembly is heard
with distinctness. Anti defective VISION is brought to nature by
the use of newly-invented SPECTACLE LENSES: immediately
they are placedb efore weak and imperfect eyesight, either by day
or candle light, every object becomes clear and distinct, and the most
minute particle is seen with great distinctness, by the use of which
both the sight and hearing become much improved.
The Messrs. S. and B. SOLOMONS disclaim all connection with per.
sons of the same name, and the Sale of Amber Spectacles: the per.
nicious use of Amber Spectacles beine now well known to the public,
and the Vendor being aware of it, he has therefore altered their
Caine, by leaving out the word " Amber," and calling them " Pa-
tent Spectacles '' those which he terms "Patent Spectacles " are no
other than those of Amber. the history and destructive use of that
material for Spectacles to imperfect vision is fully and most satisfac.
torily explained by the undermentioned scientific authorb I:

From the " Dictionary of Arts and Sciences" of Andrew Ure, M.D,

- F. R.S., &c. &c.
Amber is an indurated vegetable juice, and not produced by the
laws of crystallization, but by the same causes which influence the
mechanical condition of gum. Insects are often found embedded in
it. .Xmber is most powerfully electrical by friction—very hot, to
such an extent as to explode into fragments ; the workmen, too, are
subject to nervous tremours in their wrists, arms, &c. ; they en.
counter great danger by handling such dreadful excited electrics ;
Amber grows with lime, and is apt to take fire, and is of such a
soft nature when exposed to warmth that it swells, bubbles up, and
will burn away with flame."
The above Dr. tire's statements are fbrther confirmed by Sir D.
BREWSTER and Pliny, as also by Parks and Hem en Chemistry.
The destructive effects of such a material for Spectacles, to imperfect
vision, may be ascertained at any respectable Optician's in London.
The Messrs. Solomons' newly-invented Spectacle Lenses are not
constructed of such a material; but which are very superior, and
bring back at once dimness of sight and imperfect vision to its
original and natural state; these Spectacles, and very small Voice
Conductors for Deaf persons, are only to be had at their Establish-
ment, 39, Albemarle-street.
No 'l'ravellers are employed.

settlement of the question. Ihe Noble Earl said he
wished to call the attention of the Noble Viscount to the
state of this subject at the present moment. Eight months
ago the Noble Viscount had answered a deputation from
the Church of Scotland, that the Government would take
the subject into their serious consideration, with the view
of supplying some remedy to the disturbed state of the
country ; in consequence of the conflicting decisions of the
Courts two months ago, after the meeting of Parliament,
when he put the question to the Noble Viscount, his
ansfier was that he thought it probable some legislative
measure would be necessary, but he could not say of what
description. On the question being repeated, the Noble
Viscount answered that he had not made up his mind
whether any measure should be adopted or not. Now,
lie could understand that the Noble Viscount could
make up his mind to do nothing, and he could

PRIVILEGE.

Mr. WARBURTON presented a petition from Brid-
port, signed by the Mayor, two Allermen, seven Council-
men, and four Justices of the Peace, stating that they con-
sidered one of the most important functions of the House
was the right of printing and publishing its proceedings,
and of enabling the public to purchase their reports at a
cheap rate. The petitioners viewed with regret that the
House bad not asserted and maintained the privilege
in question with that firmness and dignity with which
long enjoyed, and exercised with so much national ad.
vant age.

A Conservative MEMBER inquired how many signatures
were attached to the petition ?
Mr. WARBURTON said the number of signatures
were altogether 150, but it was important, not so much on
account of the number as on account of the stption of the
individuals who signed it.--(lroeicvl cheers from the Con-
servative benches, and counter-cheers from the Mihisterial.)
SULPHUR.
Mr. HAWES, seeing the Right Hon. Ghntleman the
President of the Board of Trade in his place, wished to
ask him whether the negotiations with Naples relating to
the trade in sulphur had been broken off unexpectedly land
without the chance oFa favourable result ?

Mr. LA BOUCHERH replied that desra'ches had
recently been received by his Noble Friend, the Secretary
of State for the Foreign Department, and it was not true
that that negotiation had been broken off.

Mr. HUME wished to ask when the returns respect-
ing the commercial treaty with Austria might be expected,
as they had been moved for and ordered some time ago ?
Mr. LA BOUCHERE was not able to answer tLa
question without first consulting the Noble Lord the
Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.
Mr. HUME gave notice that he should to-morrow
make a motion on this subject, as the course now adopted
was really frightful.—(Laughter.
Sir E. KNATCHBULL wished to ask the Hon. Meru-
la:r for Bridport if he could inform the House, whether it
was the intention of the Hon. Member for Wolverhamp-
tsn to b,•ing forwurd his motion on the subject of the Corn-
laws, or nut?

Mr. WARBURTON said that the Hon. Member for
Wolverhampton regretted exceedingly that, owing to in-
disposition, he had been prevented from bringing forward
the motion that night, but it was his intention certainly to
bring it on tomorrow night.
