PUBLIC NOTIFICATION.

MESSRS:SLOAN and CO., Members of
the Royal College of Surgeons, 4, ARGYLL-PLACE,
REGENT-STREET, and 28, IRONMONGER-LANE,
CHEAPSIDE, may be consulted from Eight o'Clock in the
Morning until Ten at Night, on every variety and stage of
Syphilis, with that delicacy and secresy they have hitherto ob-
served. The treatment they pursue will not subject any patient
to confinement or hindrance from business. Cases of an ex-
treme nature they eradicate in eight or ten days, or if slight or
recent in two or three, without the indiscriminate use of mer-
cury, and at a moderate expense. Generative debility,
Gonorrhcea, and Strictures of the Urethra, unhappily so preva-
ent, are reatrd upon those unerring principles which have in-
sured to Messrs. Sloan and Co. so large a share of Dubic pa.
tronage for nearly thirty years in London, and which it will be
their future exertion to maintain.
Letters, containing an enclosure, will be answered by return
and patients, however distant, will be cerresponded with until
recovered.

LANDS IN NEW ZEALAND.

THE COURT of DIRECTORS of the
NEW ZEALAND COMPANY hereby give notice
that the uniform price of Country Lands in the Company's
Settlements is about to be advanced to 255. per Acre, but that
in consideration of the expectation entertained by numerous
intending Purchasers and Emigrants, that payment from them
would be received at the present rate of Illatrpef Acre, it has
been deemed right to give some notice of the intention of the
Court. And notice is hereby given accordingly, that such
ADVANCE of PRICE will take place from and after the
Ist day of November next; 75 per. cent. of the purehase-
money being, as heretofore, exclusively devoted to Emigration,
with the usual allowance of 60 per cent. to buyers who be-
come actual settlers. By order of the Court,

merated in 1831 was 1,494,890. The weekly average for
1838 was obtained by dividing the deaths registered in that
year by 52. In comparing it with the weekly deaths in
1840, it must be borne in mind that the metropolis in-
creases nearly two per cent. annually ; and that, if the
population had been the same in 1838 as in 1840, the deaths
would have been 1-27th part more numerous.

THE CHINA SUN.

" THE SUN'S" Mae OF CHINA.—The spirited and enter-
prising proprietors of The Sun newspaper published in their
last Saturday's paper, an excellent Map of China, together with
a very accurate and ably written account of that most in-
teresting country. At the present time, when all eyes arc
directed to the proceedings of the British forces in China, every in-
formation of this kind will be sought after with avidity. The Sun Map
cannot fail to prove of great assistance to those who are now watching
the progress of events in that far.off region. We trust that the enter.
prise of the proprietors will meet with its due reward. One of the
striking features remarked upon by The Sun is the vast population
of China. " Each province," says our Contemporary. " contains
more inhabitants than an European kingdom of the average size,
and a couple of them are more populous than the two powerful king-
doms that sway the destiny of the world, France and England. Pe-
tchc-li, the metropolitan province for instance, contains 97,990,871
inhabitants, while the United Kingdom has only 25,000,000, and
Kiang-tsu maintains within its comparatively small boundaries more
people than the whole of France. On looking at this province on
the map, one is astonished how the people find room to move past
each other ; yet with these many millions, a handful of men from a
small island, some fifteen thousand miles distant, are about to con.
tend, or are now engaged in combat."—Leeds Times.
" Tue CIIINAISuN."—We have received a number of this beau.
tiful and interesting paper. A Map of China, correctly and mi-
nutely traced, covers one page (the third) of the publication. It
is really a chef d'teuvre. On the second page, and on part of the
third, we have an epitome of the history, country, language, reli-
gion, Government, population, habits, customs, manners, &c., of
the Chinese. It is impossible to give too much praise to the enter-
prise, spirit, and taste that were brought into play in producing this
delightful novelty. Here we have a volume of useful and interest-
ing matter—the history of an immense nation—together with a
magnificent map—produced with great exactness and skill—all for
sixpence ! The Proprietor of The Sun deserves much credit for
this as well as other highly prized engravings which preceded it :
we mean the portraits of her Majesty on ascending the Throne and
at her marriage with Prince Albert. Any person enclosing sixpence
to The Sun office, Strand, London, will get the paper by return of
post.—Limerick Reporter.

MEDICAL JURISPRUDENCE IN FRANCE

A trial for murder took Place on the 26th, 27th, and
28th 'ult., before the Court of Assizes of the Ariege,
which was attended with some circumstances of interest
as connected witb an important question of medical juris-
prudence. The prisoners were a person named Latosse
arid his wife, and the victim a man named SAiquette, who
was in their service. It appears that Latosse had induced
Souqu,.tte to personate one of his creditors, named Delpy,
before a notary, and declare that a bill of three hundred and
eleven francs, for money borrowed by Latosse from Delpy,
had been paid. When the bill was presented for pay niebt it
was refused, on the pretext that it had already been paid :
and Delpy, having discovered the fraud which had been
practised, commenced a prosecution for forgery. Sou
quette, however, was still at liberty, and Latosse, fearing that
he would betray his suborner, resolved to, poison him, and
did so, by mixing arsenic with his food. The bidy of Son.
quette having been interred, it was taken up, and various
portions of it were submitted by several able chemists to
the usual tests with the apparatus of Marsh. The
quantity of arsenic found in the body left no doubt of the
crime; but two important facts were elicited in the course
of the experiments. These are of a nature to make juries
cautious in returning verdicts where the quantity is small.
In the first place it was ascertained that some of the steins
on porcelain saucers, which were produced by the apparatus,
and supposed arsenical, disappeared in the application of
tests, which ought not to have acted upon really arsenical
stains ; and, secondly, in some chlorydic acid, which had
been purchased from one of the principal manufacturers of
chemical products in Paris as pure, there were evident
traces of arsenic. As this acid is always used in the pre-
paration of the portions of bodies to be operated upon by
the apparatus of Marsh,
.the discovery now made is of
great importance, for it is clear that, where a vet y minute
quantity of arsenic only is obtained, that quantity tray
possibly have its source in one of the tests employed. In
the present case, however, the quantity of arsenic obtained
was such as to leave no doubt that the tissues did contain
that poison, and, as there were also other circumstances
to show that Smiquette had been poisoned,the male prisoner
was found guilty, and condemned to hard labour for life.
The female prisoner was acquitted.

LOSS OF THE BRIG HOWARD OF EXETER

On Monday the brig Howard, Bartlett, master, with a
cargo of timber from Miramichi, came to an anchor eff
Teignmouth, intending to run in with the evening tide,
but the wind at the time blowing strong S. W. prevented
the pilot from making the attempt. It continued to blow
hard during the night, and increased to a gale from the
South, when she parted from her anchors, and came on
shore on the beach near the public baths, at half-past
eleven P. m., the sea running very high at the time. At
about half-past twelve the inhabitants were roused by the
report of cannon, which proved to be Captain Manhy's
apparatus, that had been brought to the spot by Lieute-
nant O'Reilly, of the Coast-guard, who with his men used
every exertion to convey a line to the ill-fated ship, which
was now labouring very much, and her crew and the pilot,
thirteen hands, were seen, imploring relief. After several
attempts a shot from the apparatus took a line across the
ship, by which the crew hauled a hawser on board from the
shore. The pilot with great difficulty and diligence reached
the shore much exhausted ; another man that followed him
mat a watery grave, the rope having broken. At this juncture,
Mr. Warren constructed a grummet or sort of rope-cradle,
which was handed on board, and by which nine more of the
crew were safely lauded, who were all conveyed to the
house of D. Martin, Esq., who caused them to be stripped
and wrapped in warm blankets, at the same time giving
them such refreshment as was necessary. Mr. Cartwright
was also in attendance, and assisted mainly in promoting
their restoration. Two men were still missing, but as
they did not make their appearance, it was thought they
were lost. It was now half.past five, a.m., Tuesday
morning, and all having been done that human aid could
accomplish, the vessel was left to her fate. The gale now
moderated and she held together, upon the falling of the
tide the two missing men were discovered on board safe.
Thus twelve of the thirteen were providentially saved.
Lieutenant O'Reilly, with the men of the coast-guard,
Mr. Maxton with his men belonging to the Customs, the
Messrs. M. W. and C. Warren, Tucker, Owens, and a
great number of inhabitants, deserve the greatest praise
for their strenuous and persevering exertions, which were
ettended with much danger, as the sea broke with great
violence, often overwhelming the parties engaged. The
vessel must be a total wreck, and should it come on to
blow again, she cannot remain together. She is the pro-
perty of Messrs. Sanders and Snow, and of Mr. W. Spark,
of Exeter._ Westgrn Times

cery, is at once flatly to contradict the revealed word o/
God, in various passages both of the Old kind New Tes-
tament."—Blackstone. Hence witchcraft was punished
by our wise ancestors as felony, without benefit of
clergy. We are now, however, all allowed to mock
and scoff at the old belief in witchcraft, or are allowed
to scoff at some part of the Bible, but not to commit what
the law, for its own purposes, still classes as blasphemy.
Considering how positively the existence of witchcraft
is assertel in the Bible. there is a better warrant for be-
lieving in it and punishing it, than for punishing men for
blasphemy, which is very properly classed by Blackstone
with offences committed by Nonconformists and Papists
against our national religion. In fact the law against
blasphemy has the same origin in passion and injustice
as the penal laws against the Papists.
'FfiE BELLICOSE TORIES.—The Post and Standard,
the Herald and the Times, Mr. Butt and Mr. Shaw,
the ultra and the moderate Tories, the Puseyites and
the Evangelical Churchmen, are all in a state of incan-
descence, fizzing and sparkling with strife. To this we
must now add that the Editor of the Dubin Evening
Mail, with true Orange spunk, has had a personal tiff
with a Mr. Lorenzo Nixon Nunn, a member of the
Metropolitan (Dublin) Conservative Society, which
ended by Mr. Nixon Nunn retracting his expressions,
after he had handsomely abused his dear coadjutor in
mischief, the Editor of the Tory print. We desire no-
thing better than to sec these gentlemen worrying each
other, which is very natural, since they can no longer
worry the people. If they he not interrupted in their
congenial occupations, which Heaven forbid' we have
little doubt that, like Kilkenny cats—for most of these
gentlemen belong to the sister kingdom—they will in the
end devour each other. So be it. The world will be
happily rid of much rubbish.

EXCHEQUER COURT-THIS DAY.

( Sittings at Nisi Prius, Guildhall, before Lord ARINGER
and a London Common Jury.)
MORTON V. MOSS.
Mr. PLATT stated that the plaintiff in this case was the
keeper of one of the largest dining-rooms in the metro-
polis, and as such he was a frequent and large purchaser
in Leadenhall-market, where of course a good name was
as good as money, and anything affecting that good
name, in a commercial point of view, would very naturally
very much damage his credit. A few months back he was
kformed that some one had been making free with his
name, and that ualess he took some steps to trace and '
punish the slanderer, his credit in the market would be
hurt. Upon inquiry he found that the defendant, who was
a wholesale butcher in Leadenhall Market, was the
guilty party, and that without any reason or authority had
told other dealers in the Market " that he (the plaintiff)
was going to come it." That might be an ambi-
guous phrase to the Jury, but in the Market its
meaning was perfectly clear. But in order that there
might be no doubt of the defendant's meaning, be fol-
lowed it up by saying, He will scarcely stand over Sa-
turday." This was the slander complained of, and he need
not impress upon a London Jury, the very serious damage
such a rumour was sure to inflict upon any person in busi-
ness. He would leave the question of damages to their
judgment.
Mr. BUTT, who appeared for the defendant, said he was
ins:meted by his client to express his regret at having made
such an unfounded charge or insinuation against the plain-
tiff. He was perfectly aware that it was false, but he had
been misled by others. The plaintiff's character was too
well known to allow the slander to have any effect. How-
ever, the defendant now expressed his sorrow for having
been so misled, and with that apology (which had been of-
fered before) he hoped the plaintiff would be content with
a nominal verdict, which would carry costs.
Mr. PLATT said it was not his client's object to ob-
tain costs—he only wanted to defend his character, and
if his Learned Friend gave an unqualified apology, and
distinctly stated that there was no foundation for the
slander he would consent to a verdict for forty shillings.
Mr. BUTT had no hesitation in saying that the de-
fendant had been wide& and that there was no foun-
dation whatever for the report.
Lord Asir:GER directed a verdict for forty shillings,
and said the words were most improper_ The defend-
ant had tuken•the only proper course open to him.—
Verdict forty shillings.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TAT FERS A LL'S-YESTERDAY.
CAMBRIDGESHIRE STAKES.

In the early part of the afternoon, The Ruler was first
favourite, the several prices being about the same as at
Newmarket on Friday last. The Clarion party, however,
increased in number and confidence as the evening ap-
proached, took the sevens and sixes to one freely, and
finally placed him at the top of the list of favourites ; this
drove The Ruler back a point, but did not lead to any other
change worth dwelling upon. The Derby remains in pre-
cisely the same state as when we gave the last odds ; 8 to
was taken to 2001., and afterwards offered, against Cameicon,
and sonic small sums laid out on three or four others. The

SPLENDID RUN WITH THE GOGERDDAN
HotiNos.—Cub-hunting commenced a short time ago in
i
the neighhoui hood of °Aberystwth, and the hounds have
been blooded after two splendid runs, in both of which
they kille]. On Tuesday week the hounds met at Tan-y-
-bwlch, and after drawing the covers blank, as well as the
rocks of the Abermaitle covers, they trotted off to Nan-
teos. There they drew the withy bed blank, after which
they were thrown into the new cover, when old " Agony"
told us that Reynard was at home. After a good deal of
cover hunting, an " old un" was seen to break. The
hounds were immerliately laid on, and they ran back to
the warren cover, passing Nanteos House at the back. He
instantly doubled, returning in front of the house, running
the whole length of the lawn to the pond. Here the
scene was rut:lly beautiful, the pace terrific, and the hounds
might have been covered with a sheet. The varmint
passed through the withy bed up the hill for the Abelr-
mai& cover ; but the wind being stiff in his tceth,

IN THE MATTER OF JOHN SANDELL.

The bankrupt in this case was described as of " Al-
bion House, Norwood, boarding-house-keeper ; but
was well known as a brewer at Ramsgate a few years
since, and had also visited Rye, in Sussex, Tonbridge
Wells, and other places in the neighbourhood of the
metropolis. The fiat was issued without any hope of
the creditors receiving a single shilling, but in ordcr, if
possible, to bring the bankrupt to justice.
For the last ten years he has been living in great
style, and keeping his private carriage, with a suitable
establishment.
The only two claims made were, one by a venerable
clergymen of the Established Church, who had parted
with 6001. under the most extraordinary representa-
tions on the part of the bankrupt ; and the other by a
respectable tailor at the east end of the town, whom he
had " patronised" to a very considerable amount. The
tailor stated that he was duped by the splendour of
'the carriage and the plausible manners of Mr. Sandell,
who called upon him in the course of the last week in
his carriage, in order to give him directions for a
fresh supply ; but from cireumatances which subse-
, quently nAme to his knowledge, be 'did not fulfil bis
I commands.

The bankrupt did not surrender to his fiat, has no
protection, and a warrant is out for his apprehension.
Mr. Remington was chosen assignee.

ATTEMPTED INCENDIARISM AT

SHEERNESS.

SHEERNESS, OcT. 19.—Preparations are in progress
on board her Mejesty's ship Ocean for holding the
court-martial on John Henty, Sir John Hill, it is said'
'is to appear as prosecutor, and will be professiOnally re-
presented by the solicitor to the Admiralty. Mr. Essel,
the solicitor, who watched the proceedings ngainst Henty
before the Captain-Superintendent of the Dockyard will
preside at the court-martial as Julge-Advoeate of the
port. Admiral Ornmanney and other properly qualified
officers are hourly expecte'? to arrive by the Govern.
ment steamers, which have been despatched to Ports-
mouth for the purpose of bringing them hither. There
will be no difficulty in completing the number to-day,
and the court-martial will probably commcnce its pro.
ceedirws to-morrow, should the other arrangements
have been also completed. If necessary, some of the
hulks or ships in ordinary will be temporarily put in
commission, in order that the trial of H.enty may pro-
ceed without further delay.
It is said that orders have been received at Chatham
to bring forward the Formidable of 84 guns, and the
London, of 92 guns. A message has also been sent
down from the Admiralty to expedite the completion of
the Hecate, which has ',nen under preparation for active
service in Chatham, dockyard for some weeks past.—
