Summonses were issued yesterday from the Fo-
reign-office to the Ministers to attend a Cabinet
Council this afternoon, at the Foreign-oflice, Down-

Her MAJESTY and Prince ALBERT arrived in town
this morning by a special train on the Great Western
Railway from Windsor Castle. Another special
train was ordered at the Paddington station at one
o'clock, and soon after that time her MAJESTY and
Prince ALBERT arrived from Buckingham Palace,

HUNTINGDONSHIRE.

Desirable TITIIE-FRZZESTAYE.4, containing together 224 ACRES,

producing a RENTAL of 409/. per annum.
MR. W. W. SIMPSON has received instructions
from the trustees for sale of the real estate of William
Margetts, Esq., deceased, to SELL BY AUCTION, at the Mart,
on TUESDAY, November 10, at Twelve, the following valuable
PROPERTY:—

Lot 1. A desirable pleasure farm and accommodation land, with
newly-built bailiff's cottage, and agricultural buildings, situate at
Hartford, within one mile of the county town, and five from the
capital market town of St. Ives; comprising 56 acres of land, of
which 40 are fertile arable, convertible and kindly to the grow ill of
corn and green crops in all their varieties ; the remaining 16 acres
are meadow land of superior mowing and feeding qualities, being
bounded by the River Ouze. The property is copyhold of the manor
of Hartford, but paying only a fine of 11. 3s. 9d. on admittance,
which being certain, mikes it equal in value to freehold. It is sub-
ject also to a quit rent of 11. 3s. 9d. per annum. The farm is in the
occupation of Dennis Herbert, Esq., of Huntingdon, an eminent
brewer, who holds under a lease for a term of ten years, from Octo-
ber 11, 1843, at a rent of 1301. per annum. Mr. Dennis Herbert
farms very highly, and his brewery supplies a great quantity of
manure, independent of that which is made on the farm.
Lot 2. A valuable freehold and tithe free farm, situate
at Graffham, about four miles from Huntingdon. It com-
prises a convenient farm-house and appropriate agricultural
buildings (on which a considerable outlay has recently been
made), together with 123 acres of land; 26 of which are pro.
ductive old pasture and meadow, and the remainder deep-stapled
wheat, barley, and bean land. It is in the occupation of Messrs.
Thomas and Robert Whitehead, who hold under a lease for a term of
seven years from the 10th of October, 1843, at a rent of 155/. per
annum.

Lot 3. A desirable Freehold Estate, called Highfield Farm, situate in
the parish of Hemingford Grey, within two miles of St. Ives, and
four from the county town of Huntingdon. It comprises a small
farmhouse, garden, and convenient agricultural buildings, together
with 64 acres of highly-productive and easy-tillage arable land,
kindly to the growth of turnips, barley, wheat, and leguminous
crops ; a small portion is excellent old pasture land. The farm is in
the occupation of Mr. John Reid, a most Industrious, improving, and
first-class tenant, under a lease for seven years from the I lth of Oc-
tober, 1843, at a rent of 1241. per annum.

The property may be viewed by permission of the tenants, and
particulars, with plans annexed, may now be obtained of Mr. Mar-
getts, solicitor, Huntingdon; Messrs. Jones, Trinder, Tudway, and
Eyre, solicitors, 1, John-street, Bedford-row: and of Mr. W. W.

Notwithstanding the supply of Beasts here, to=day, was small, we
have to report a very dull inquiry- for Beef; at barely Monday's
quotations. The number of foreign Beasts amounted to 213, and
of foreign Sheep to 190, chiefly in good condition. With Sheep,
from our own districts, we were again scantily supplied ; yet the
demand for theni was heavy, and previous rates were with Alitticulty
supported. Calves were in moderate supply, and, dull inquiry, at a
decline in value of 4d. per Sibs. In Pigs, comparatively little was
doing, at late rates. Mulch Cows were selling at from 161 to 181 15s ;
Suckling Calves, IBs to 31s ; and Quartar-ald Store Pigs, 16s to 215

TO THE ELECTORS OF WESTMINSTER,

GENTLEMEN,
BELIEVE I am asserting but a fact, that at
the but ,sesicral election, a majority of your body were de-
sirous 0: recording their votes for inc. We need not now stop to in-
quire by what iic&lcet or joggle a stain on your hitherto bright and
long-established lane was then inflicted. But you and myself conse-
quently are placed in a peculiar position.
tinder such cireumstances—after so many years in your service—
after so many marks of your confidence, which I have scorned to
betray or abn.e, or to pander for fee or reward, it has remained im-
perative on me to be prepared to co-operate in removing that dis-
credit.
But a week since I stated, at the instance of pure minded and In-
fluential elect,rs who enjoy your esteem, my determination to fulfil
that obligation. The occasion has arisen. lam present with you to
fulfil my part. Last night a numerous assembly of your public-
spirited local representatives, at which I was present, decided on
this contest. In five preceding contests their decisions have been
with me, irrevocable. Never before have I been honoured with a
more kind, generous, or unanimous reception.
I need not tell you, I ant a free-trader, total and immediate ; not,
however, of a few weeks or months, but of many years, when the
cause was in contempt and disrepute, and when its support was not
the road to worldly advantage. Ind I have no motive now to aban-
don it—nor will Sir It. Peel find amongst his most obsequious fol-
lowers or officials a snore ardent supporter of his present measures.
But, gentlemen, theagh deeply conscious of the necessity of unqua-
lified assistance to these measures, I am not so silly a political or
party pedant as to believe that this is the sole matter worthy of con-
sideration, that there are not also other quite as great objects of Civil
anti Religious Equality and Amelioration to be yet struggled for.
Of these I svill, you know, be also a staunch adherent. And I will no:
wait to be so for the conversions of the great and powerful.
The day of election will arrive quickly. You will find me, then
and intermediately, at my post. I will do my duty, to the best of
toy humble ability—do you yours ; and I am sure I need not call to
your recollection, that the first and paramount of all political func-
tions are those of electors. It is they who have truly the power to
teach their governors that a just, upright, and honourably consistent
course can alone receive their permanent sanction.

I have the honour to be, Gentlemen,
. Your faithful Servast,
DE LACY EVANS.

BATSON V. RICHARD.

Mr. Watson, with Mr. Sniytbie, appeared for the plaiatiff,:and Mr,
Jervis for the defendant. _ _ _

This was an action brought by plaintiff, the drawer of a bill of
exchange, against defendant, who was the acceptor, and refused to
honour it when it became due. The consideration given by plaintiff
for tile acceptance was thirty tons of boiler plates, at.l3/. 10s. per ton.

The defence set up was, that the plates Isere of inferior quality,
and that they were not delivered at the proper time.

SECONDARIES.-(THIS DAY.)

(Before Mr. Secondary JAHES.)
DROWN v. GOOCH.
This was an action to recover the sum of 51., for money lent. The
defendant pleaded that he was never indebted.
➢ir. HUGHES stated the case. The plaintiff is a licensed victualler
in Philip-street, llexton, and in September last kept the Norfolk
Arms, Norfolk•street, Edgeware-road. The defendant is a surveyor,
&c., and had been In the habit of paying his men at defendant's
house, and occasionally borrowing money, which was always repaid
until the 6th of September last, when he borrowed Si. .0n being ap-
plied to for it sometime after, he at first said that he had repaid it to
plaintiff's wife ; and on a subsequent occasion that he had paid it to
kis daughter. The defendant's plea, however, did not support that
assertion, as he had not ventured to show payment. It therefore
was only necessary for the plaintiff to prove the loan to entitle hint
to a verdict.
John Bowen was then called, and distinctly proved that the money
was advanced.
The defendant's attorney said it would be wasting the time of the
Court to contend against this evidence. His instructions were that
the money had never been lent.
The SECONDARY said the jury could hear the evidence of the appli-
cation for tke money, but no proof of payment could have been re-
ceived under the pleadings.
The jury gave a verdict for the amount. This was the only cause
On the list.
