POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

BOW-STREET.

EXTENSIVE POST•OFFICE ROBBERY.—•John Mo2:g,
a Two-penny-Post Letter-oarrier, was charged with
stealing a letter containing 701, with several other
letters, one of which contained the sum of 200/., and
Richard Hogg, alias Cooper, his father, was charged
with feloniously receiving the same, well knowing them
to have been stolen.

The prisoners had been in custody for several days, but

ceedings until the tomes were completed against them.
Mr. Peacock, assisted by his brother, attended for:the
Post-office authorities, and Mr. Robinson appeared for the
defence. _ _

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIK,-It may be presumed the Duke of Welling,
ton did not without many misgivings deal to the Church
that heavy blow inflicted by his recent declaration, that
it was idle to ask for Parliamentary grants while she
had so many unimproved resources.
His Grace needed an early and a worthy occasion of
testifying that he had not forsaken the championship of
the Church, and with the occasion be has found a
fitting opponent. The shoemaker of Chelmsford had to
'bide the onslaught by which the Duke was to prove
his faithfulness to the cause of intolerance.
Tile unequivocal feeling of the House of Commons,
and of all parties in the House, and especially the dis-
tinct analysis of that feeling by Sir It. Peel, had ren•
dered it impossible for the Chelmsford Churchwardens
any longer to hold the Church-rate recusant, and this
was the very
moment chosen by the Duke for the Ect-
off, to signalize his zeal by taking up ground long
abandoned by his whole party, and givenup as wholly
indefensible by the " judicious and candid" Peel.
The Duke knows very little of the motives which
have actuated the prisoner of Chelmsford gaol, and as
hmallette cannot letter, wdheineyh shows
myself
how little of that moral courage which will support the
man, if the Church will it, and his bodily power suffice
for other nineteen months, in the endurance of wrong;
for conscience sake.
I
have
e regards just receivedtliematter,
from !
andthe pleasure of furnishing an extract for your readers .
" I am in Chelmsford gaol still, but in the best of
spirits, and here let me die rather than submit to the
%
arrogant authority of Mammon-loving priests, or their
Inquisition. I hope you will exhort all the friends of
religious liberty not to pay one farthing-, if that would
obtain my release. I am persuaded it would be the
greatest evil that could be done against the truth, for
1 believe the Almighty has some great etd to am mu.
'Ash, and that he will do it if his people are faithful.
Sir, your obedient servant,

but to equal in amount the entire sum of all the advantages
neretofore only obtained by the middle and industrious classes
by separate investments in Savings' Banks, Benefit Societies,
and Loan Banks.
1. A small yearly or weekly contribution will secure the
most ample return for after life; thus-21. 12s. per annum (Is.
a week) at 20 will at 65 give the policy holder the choice of an
annuity for life of 471. 16s. 6d.: 3941. 1 Is. in cash; or policy
without further contributions of 4661. at death.

2. Two-thirds at any time lent on deposit of policy, being a
fund always available during sickness or want of employment.
3. Two-thirds of all payments returned to representatives in
ease of premature death.

AN AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR,
with REMARKS on the VARIOUS INCIDENTS
which have occurred during' FORTY-FIVE YEARS of his
LIFE, and a rOLL DESCRIPTION of his MODE of
TREATING DISEASES, with REASONS EXPLANA.
TORY of HIS SYSTEM.
By SAMUEL WESTCOTT TILKE,
Medical Herbalist, Author of " Random Reflections in In-
digestion, Gout, Tenia Capitis, Scarlet Fever," &c. &c.
" Mr. Tilke is One of those individuals who, born with a
wooden spoon in their mouths, have, by the alchemy of thrift and
industry, converted it into silver. He began the world as a jour-
neyman baker, but every intermission from the labour of the knead.
ing trough, was devoted to the pursuit of medical science. Any
man who makes such unceasing efforts as he has done to allevia e
the sufferii',s of humanity, is entitled to honourable mention."—
Times, Nov. 3.
" In this volume we have the autobiographical memoir of a man,
whose career in life has been a chequered one, but who, by sheer
dint of perseverance, and showing a gallant front to misfortune,
had the satisfaction of seeing all his efforts crowned with success.
The Memoir is an interesting one, as showing what may be accom-
plished by energy and good conduct; and it is written in a cheerful
eau benevolent strain. As a Medical Herbalist, Mr. Tilke has
effected a variety of surprising cures in obstinate cases of gout,
rheumatism, and indigestion. His mode of treating some of these
diseases is fully described in the course of his Memoir, and he has
added reasons explanatory of his system, so that he who runs may
read."—The Sun, Nov. 5.

the liberty of all officers in the discharge of their sworn
duties.
London, England, 1840-02-22

vstance any evidence was necessary to show that a Mem-
ber of that House had succeeded to a Peerage, but if it
had been usual in the case of a Member succeeding either
to a Scotch or Irish Peerage to have evidence of that fact,
surely it would have been in the power ofsome Hon. Member
to state what evidence was required.—(Hear, hear.) But,
that had not been done. He bad not heard from Hon.
and Learned Gentlemen opposite, any statement as to the
nature of the evidence which that House had been in the
habit of requiring that a Scotch or Irish Member had
succeded to a Peerage. But under those circumstances
it did appear to him that their duty was not to improve
- the law, but to adhere to the law, and to the existing
practice of that House. As be did not find it had been
stated by any Hbn. Gentleman, that any evidence beyond
the notoriety of the fact would be required, he wculd, though
he admitted with considerable doubt, vote against the
adjournment of the motion.—(Hear, hear, and a laugh.)
Lord STANLEY said that no one disputed that in the
case of an English Peer, it was necessary to produce the
technical evidence which was derived from a writ of sum-
mons, and all that was asked for was, that a postponement
might take place in order that it might be ascertained what
had been the universal rule in the case of a Scotch Peer.
Was it to be expected that they should have at their fin-
gers' ends all the precedents on this subject? Why, pro-
bably, there was not a single Gentleman on that side of
the House, who had come down with the slightest idea
that there was any intention for moving for a new writ
that evening. —(" Oh, oh 1" from the Ministerial benches,
answered by cheers from the Opposition benches.) More-
over, he would state this, that he believed it was unheard
of, that a writ should he moved upon the death of a Bri-
tish or Scotch Peer, withia the space of three days from
his death,—(Cheers.) Hon. Gentlemen might be able
to produce such an instance ; but, at all events, they
ought to look into precedents, and see how the law stood.
The Under- Secretary for the Home Department ought to
have been prepared to have produced evidence of the
practice, before moving. for the writ.—( Hear, hear.)
If practice and precedent were in favour of Honour-
able Gentlemen opposite, they might re'y upon it
that not one obstacle would be thrown in the way of the
issuing of the new writ. But if it was determined to press
this motion, being unahle to satisfy the House that they
were not proceeding without that legal evidence which
ought to be required, and which ought to have been re-
quired in former cases, then he thought his Hon. Friend
was right in proposing this amendment.—( Hear, hear.)
Strangers were then ordered to withdraw, and the
House divided, when there appeared--

DUBLIN, Fin 20.—The Commission tot .minatedyestercle,
without those persons charged with .Ribbanism being
plie=d for tripl, in consequence of Counsel on their parts
succeeding in obtaining liberty to trav'er'se in prox. . until
the next sitting of the Court in April next. The applica-
tion was founded upon the affidavit of Jones, one of the
persons charged as a principal in the econspiracy, which
rated first, that in consequence of the absence of Lord
Morpeth, who was a material witness; cad secondly, the
illness of his attorney, who had possessior4 of all his pap-rs,
he could not safely go to trial. And it was finally ar-
ranged that two who were out on bail shou Id come in yr .
terday morning, and enter iito the neo !ssary sureties ;
but they have not as vet made t;:eir •ance, and their
recomtizanees were entreated. There are five implicate d
in the conspiracy, three of whom ate char ged with beirg
concerned in the murder of the late Audi ew Ganby, and
against whom bills of indictment have beet found. Thus
stands the matter at this moment, but di pcnd upon the
inf umation which I have given you, i-bat t: he Government
are in possession of documents which will not only enable
them to convict the parties in custody,• but to extinguish
the system altogether.

ARREST AND CONVICTION OFA_MTURDEREP.
Another victim is about to be offered up in expiation of
Vie cruel death inflicted by a body of sae veers upon a poor
man named Huller, in 1829. while goi. tg boxes from his
employment about six o'clock in the eve mg. In conse-
quence of not conforming with certain :regulations into
which they entered, he was waylaid in Tits emas-street, by
about thirty assassins, and brutally murde; ,ed on the spot.
Four men weee, in a short time after the of 'currence, exe-
cuted for the offence, and a fait transported for life about
yrar ago, while Wm. Lynan, the originator and planner of
the murder, escaped without punishine 3t,.rthough 2,909/,
reward was offered for his apprehension. :Justice has over-
taken him at last ! He fled from Dublin_ iihortly after the
tragedy, and repaired to Bolton, where, The resided up to
the time of his apprehension under the .assumed name of
William Walsh. Ibis capture was effec.:e d by one of his
own party at the murder meeting him feet.: 112cember, im-
mediately after which he gave InformatA of the fact to
the authorities here, who had him instantly arrested. Art r
a long and patient trial, he was convicted on the evidence

that of others, and was sentenced to be cuted oa Satur-

LITERATURE.

THE MAN AT ARMS.

t James, Bentley, London. 1'340.
one of the most indefatigable wr-
'tejs of fiction of the present day, is the author of
e"is tale, which, like the majority of his fictitious
t:43ositions, has historical fact for its ground-
tci) k. The period to which it refers is about
ofe middle of the sixteenth century, and the scene
th its principal incidents is laid in France, when
stat country was convulsed by the sanguinary
shat
betweeti the Catholic and Protestant
NiipattY. The hr:ro, Henri de Cerons, is, like ail
r• James's heroes, brave, generous, susceptible,
but without any marked traits of individuality
i4llbout him
and he relates his various adventures
vertjie first person, which gives a greater air of
cis,"lliritude and animation to the tale than it
otherwise possess, for it is by no means le-
h'rible for the novelty of its incidents, and its
irk.'',,acters are ptesented to us rather in outline than
getail. Still the reader will be interested in
k'o-ciPerusal, for the style of the narrative is lively
kr •"°wing ; the descriptions of landscape scenery
,toe Mvariably effective, the author having a ready
,crPrehension of the picturesque ; and the battle
Cones' especially that wherein the Prince de
lade is killed, and the particulars respecting St.
4tiholonlew's massacre, with which the story
tees,Wt(litihel just as a melodrame usually concludes
Ohl
conflaaration of a baron's castle, and the
tirtlrtier of the baron himself, with all his attendants,
related with considerable tact and spirit.

MUSIC.

114. ANCIENT MUSIC OF IRELAND.
4 Rodges and Smith. London, 1840
".11unting has exhibited considerable research in
tf-itak--which appears to have been quite a labour
tlle°4-----of giving to the world these specimens f
4ncient music of Ireland. Of the hundred ano d
fifty,t
ve,uoes which he has introduced into his volume,
for few are known in this country, and will there-
afford a rare treat to the musical community.
thrr. Bunting has judiciously arranged them in
epee divisions—namely, the ancient, the very
tec,.44, and those which were composed in the last
rflo'-;turY by the harpers, of whom Carolan was the
,irst eeleGrated. These tunes are again classed—
ttliel 43 they possess ; secondly, as they are desti-
-1/le)°' ,1)'
°1; the great characteristic of Irish and Scotch
rho s, we mean, the fourth of the scale. In
tiioeiairs where the scale is imperfect, there is a
fiet4 velar and impressive wildness, sometimes of a
A, r) at other times of a melancholy character.
Of tl e.gards the very ancient tunes, the irregularity
ind leir time is remarkable, the phrases being three
ti'e bars, instead of the usual four or eight bar

We should have imagined that such amelody as

Neetive When played slow ; but. here we find them
kssk ed " moderately quick ;" and Mr. Bunting,
tr;turts us that such music assumes quite a differ-
' amoharacter, when played with spirit and energy,
th accords better with the national temperament,

thewild amounts amounts almost to the phrenzied in its

e Cannot conclude this brief notice without ex-

CERTAIN GROWTH of HAIR.—A Gen-
tleman just returned from a Tour in the East, and a
long residence in Constantinople, offers to the Public a CER-
TAIN REMEDY for the CURE or PREVENTION of
BALDNESS. The TURKISH HAIR BALSAM is the
preparation of Othman Mustapha, Surgeon-Barber to his
Majesty Abdul-Medjid, Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, by
whom the Advertisers are authorised to make known this valu-
able discovery. The miraculous properties of MUST.APHA'S
BALSAM are unrivalled; the trial of a single bottle will re-
move the doubts of the most sceptical. In the course of a few
days the young Hair may be clipped with fine scissars. In we
it w►ll be found singularly agreeable, and as a dressing for Real
or False Hair, surpases anything hitherto known.
A Depot having been established in London, at No. 10,
Maddox-street, Regent-street, the TURKISH HAIR BAL-
SAM may be had there in Bottles, at ss. each, or in large
Bottles containing the quantity of three, at 12s. 6d. each. The
supply brought to England being at present very limited, an
early application from Vendors (to whom the usual allowance
w►ll be made) is recommended.

Orders from the country (enclosing a remittance), addressed
to Mustapha and Co., 10, M.kdilox-street, Regent-street, will
be immediately attended to. May also be had of all respectable
vendors.
