SALE OF ANCIENT ARMOUR, &r,—Wednesday a sale
by auction of a rare and genuine collection of ancient armour and
weapons of various nations, collected by the late E.. 1. Andrews, Esq.,
taring his travels in the East, took place at Messrs. Oxenham's
toms, in Oxford-street. Many of the loth were extremely curious,
.11t the prices they fetched reinalsa,ily low: Some of them were pur-
eleused for the Tower. A suit of knight's tap-a-pie armour complete,
.he breast-plate of flue form; time, about the middle of
the 15th century, when this description of defeneive armour had at-
rained its greatest eerfection, sett tbr 26 guineas. A magnificent snitof
aracenie chain-armour, the links of the chain embossed with verses
t rem the Koran, only realised 5/.los. Another suit of similar armour of
the time of the Crusaders, fetched but 41. Whilst a Saracenie hel-
met of the same penal sold for 21. 10e. The state flag of the Janl-
caries, composee of the finest silk, white ground, with deep crimson
border, worked in gold in verses from the Koran. This flag was
purchased by Mr. Andrews, on the destruction of the Janizaries in
1825, at Constantinople, for 601., and on being brought I' this
country that gentleman paid an ad ra:orefo duty of 501. upon it.
It was kneeked down yesterday for 20/. The next let, a case con •
reedier the mummies of several small crocodiles, brought from the
NI relonte, near fhehes, seed for 6/. 15s. The other lots,
cons' ling or sword..., battle axes, ancient musical Instruments,
Turkish and Arabian costumes, fctclsc,l egnallv low prices.
COMMISSIGN OF LUNACY.-- ay a commission
le lutialico irequuenrlo was opened at the k.ll‘ ritfo'-ollicc, Red Lion•
square, before Mr. Coinnifssioner Winslow and seventoon special
ittrors, to inquire as to the seee of mina of Henry Pollard, Esq.,
aced sixty-six, a retired Manchesi-r warehoesentan, formerly of
out-etreet,waheerth, tett tees, an inmate or Dr. Warburton's lunatic
asylum. The conmession, which was unopposed, was taken out at
the instance of Mr. Peter Pollard, 'of the CoNmissioners of Sewers
office, brother of the unfortunate gentleman. From the statement
of the Learned Counsel, the evidence of Mr. H. Lambert, surgeon
at St. Luke's Hospital, Messrs. Phillips and Miller, surgeons of
Dr. Warburton's establishment, aid other witnesses, it appeared
that the misfortunate gentleman was of necessity • taken to
st. Luke's on the 7th of June, 1141, and subsequently to Dr.
Warburton's. He had the delusions that he was immensely rich,
that he was the Prince of Poland, one of the Lords of the Admiralty,
and visited by his wife (recently dead), who, he said, had charmed
away Lis legs at Woolwich, and afterwards charmed them back again
to pay his debts. He also imagined that presents of fruits, &c., were
