MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

The Rev. Samuel Bradshaw, of No. 2, Ferdinand-ter-
race, Hampstead-road, was yesterday brought before Mr.
CHAMBERS by the police, he having been found blind drunk,
and totally incapable of taking care of himself, in Regent-
street, on Monday afternoon.

The rev. defendant had been discovered by a policeman
of the C division, sitting at a door in Regent-street, about
six o'clock, so overcome by the potency of his spirituous
devotions, that he had made shift either to lose or mislay
his coat and waistcoat. The rev. gentleman was then con-
veyed to the Vine-street station-house, and allowed the
benefit of a nap by the inspector, who conceived that this
indulgence would have the effect fso far reviving him, that
he would be able to give some account of himself to the
magistrates at the evening sitting. It was found, however,
when the time came, that the rev. gentleman was totally
unpresentable, and his introduction to the Bench was de-
ferred until the morning. When placed at the bar, and
questioned as to his station in life, the rev. defendant merely
said he was a " gentleman," and as the charge was not de-
nied, he paid the customary fine of ss. and walked away.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

We are very scanty of arrivals this morning, having merely
the French mail express from Paris, and a few Quebec Pa-
pers of the 25th July.
The accounts from Madrid are to the 18th inst., which have
given new life to the Spanish Cortes Bond-holders in this
country, as according to the private letters from that capital,
the Spaniards have hit upon a new plan to pay their old debts,
to take from one creditor to pay the other. Finding that their
credit in the French market is annihilated, and that they can-
not obtain a new loan there, they have turned round to John
Bull, counting on his good nature, and promise to pay the
Cortes Bonds with the debt due to the French. This no
doubt is a manoeuvre to obtain in this country a Spanish Loan
of four millions sterling. What will the French say to this
noble project of he Spaniards ?
The Quebec papers are without the least interest.
Barbadoes papers to the 26th July, received at the North
and South American Coffee House, state that some differences
had occurred between the Governor and the House of As-
sembly relating to the New Police Bill, and the House was
adjourned from the 14th to 22d July; but the differences were
expected to be adjusted. The Governor was far from being
popular. It was stated that some unpleasant accounts had
reached that island, of disturbances at St. Kitt's. The Bel-
videra frigate and a brig of war then in the bay, were to pro-
ceed there.

STATE OF TRADE.

both
LEEDS.—The market has been very brisk in both halls,
on. Saturday and Tuesday, and a trifling advance has been_lb.
tamed. The demand has of late more than kept pace
the supply, and the stock of goods in the halls is 10 conse
uence very light. Many of the manufacturers are now set-
tingon fresh hands. There has been a considerable influx of
buyers during the week, both from London and the cou_a;
; in consequence, more business has been done in th
warehouses than has been the case for some time past.
BRADFORD.—The operations in our market at present ar;
so conflicting, that we find it exceedingly difficult to repo.

mately to embarrass both the manufacturers and spinner!'
nevertheless there has been more business done clto-
than during the last two or three weeks. There is

BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

Elizabeth Rowe was again brought up before Sir F. ROE
upon the charge of intermarrying with James Brown, a Ser-
jeant of the 2d Coldstream Guards, her former husband being
still alive.

The former evidence was read over, and the prisoner was
fully committed. She said it was a very hard case, for she
had not seen or heard any thing of her first husband for twelve
years.
The sergeant then applied to the Magistrates on behalf of a
daughter of the prisoners, who was now living at the house in
Stepney, where the prisoner was taken ; she was about from
twelve to fourteen years of age, and he had good reason to be-
lieve it was a house of ill fame.

The prisoner loudly protested against the child being moved ;
s'.e was well provided for by her (prisoner's) friends.
Sir F. ROE said if that was the case he could not interfere ;
he regretted that such was the case, but he had no power to
make any order, unless those with whom she was living were
tired of her, and wished to send her to, the parish.
The prisoner was then fully committed, and the prosecutor
bound over to appear, and prefer a bill against her at the Mid-
dlesex Sessions.

The King, attended by his Royal suite, inspected the Life

the Castle.

His Majesty afterwards attended divine service in the pri-

ford, the Ladies North, Lord and Lady Frederick Fitz-
clarence, Lord and Lady Falkland, Sir. Philip and Lady Syd-

Virginia Water and the Belvidere. The Ladies North, Col.
Bowater, and Miss Hope Johnstone followed in another open
carriage.
On Wednesday morning the King will go to town; and it is
expected that her Majesty will arrive there on that day and
accompany his Majesty on his return to Windsor in the evening.

lent health.

DARING OUTRAGE AND ROBBERY.

On Monday night last, at about nine o'clock, as a gen-
tleman, attired in the height of fashion, was walking through
Russell-square, he was by a handsome, genteel-looking
girl, who accosted him, and requested him to treat-her to
a glass of wine. He entered into conversation with her,
and eventually consented to accompany her to her lodgings
in Lascelles's-court, St. Giles's. On entering the place
he sent the servant for some wine, and made her a hand-
some present, when he pulled out his purse, which con-
tained several sovereigns and some silver. They had not
been long together when his there conic made an excuse
to quit the room. The gentleman sat patiently for some
minutes, when he was suddenly alarmed by three ruffianly
looking fellows rushing into the room, and inquiring what
business he had there ; and on informing them of the
nature of his visit, they demanded his money. He at first
hesitated, but they swore that he should not leave the
place until he acceded to their demand, and he offered them
half a sovereign, which they received, but expressed their
dissatisfaction. 'The ruffians then threatened violence un-
less more was given them, on which the gentleman resisted
them, and 'lnstil; called out " Police, murder," &c., and by a
desperate effort got out of the apartment, and made his way
as fast as possible into the street. On his arrival there, not
being able to find a policeman, he instantly proceeded to St.
Giles's station-house, where he gave information of the out-
rage to inspector Titterton, who was on duty, and a descrip-
tion of the persons of the girl and the fellows who assaulted
and robbed him, and that officer dispatched some of his men
to the house in Lascelles-court (a common brothel), when
they ascertained the name of the girl to be Caroline
Davis, a notorious young prostitute, whom they shortly
after took into custody ; but they could get no tidings
of the men. They then took her• to, the station-house,
where the gentleman attended, and made his charge against
her, but refused to give his name and address. Yesterday
morning she was brought before Mr. Serjeant Sellon, at
Hatton-garden Police-office, and on the case being called
on the prosecutor did not answer.
Mr. Serjeant SELLON considered it a daring outrage, and
inquired whether there was any probability of the gentle-
man making his appearance ?
Inspector Titterton thought there was not, as, when he
refused to give his name and address, he seemed exceedingly
afraid of exposure ; but he promised to attend. He was a
middle-aged man, fashionably dressed, with gold rings on
his fingers, gold watch chains and seals, a valuable guard,
and eye-glass. The house, he said, was a most notorious
receptacle for thieves, &c., and he considered it a most for-
tunate circumstance that the gentleman was not murdered
for the sake of his property.
Mr. Serjeant SELLON concurred in this opinion, and said
that as there was no prosecutor he must discharge the pri-
soner, which he did, after severely' reprimanding her, and
ordered the officers to keep a strict watch after her and the
house in future.

SPAIN.

General Rodil has issued the following decree :
" After having employed all possible means of clemency,
and being convinced that severe chastisements can alone put
an end to the rebel faction, which, contrary to reason and jus-
tice, daily foments civil war in the kingdom, and in the pro-
vinces under my orders ; and making use of the full powers
which the Queen Regent has conferred on me, I have decreed
as follows :

" Art. 1. Every individual belonging to the ranks of the
rebels, who has usurped or not the title of officer, of whatso-
ever class, shall be shot as soon as taken.

" Art. 2. Persons who shall supply arms, or who shall
favour the criminal attempts of the rebels, shall be shot.
" Art. 3. The conveyance of provisions and drugs (drogues)
to the places occupied by the rebels is forbidden. The horses
and carriages shall be seized and sold.
" Art. 4. All persons who obey the summonses of the rebels
shall be shot, even if they have not joined them.
" Art. 5. Those who convey correspondence or verbal corn-
munications, and those who act as spies hall be shot ; nor
shall they be admitted to offer in excuse, that they acted under
the orders of any local authorities.
" Art. 6. The authorities or private individuals who shall
abscond on the approach of the Queen's troops shall, for this
act alone, have their property confiscated.
" Art. 7. The authorities of such places as may be invaded,
by whatever rebel force, and who shall not have given infor-
mation thereof to their civil and military superiors, shall be
arrested, their property shall be seized, and they will be brought
to trial to undergo such pains and penalties as they may have
incurred.

" Art. 8. In the localities where the partisans of the Queen
shall have been laid under contribution for the insurgents, the
inhabitants thereof, who are enemies to legitimacy, shall be
held responsible fur the injury suffered by the former.
Art. 9. Those related in the second degree to insurgent
persons, shall be expelled from the territory, and will not be
allowed to return before the latter have submitted themselves
to the legitimate authority.
" Art. 10. The present decree shall be literally executed
under the most rigid responsibility of the authorities and chiefs
to whom such execution respectively belongs.

COUNT TORENO'S FINANCIAL PLAN.

The following is an exact translation of the project of
law submitted by Count Toren() to the Chamber of Proeu-
radores

" PROJECT OF LAW.

" Article 1. All the debts contracted by the Government
in foreign countries, at different periods, and more particularly
the loanS anterior, as well as posterior, to 1623; are National
Debt—(Deuda del Estado.)
" Art. 2. The liquidation of all this debt shall be immedi-
ately entered on, and in proportion as the liquidation proceeds
the payment of the interest shall be verified.
" Art. 3. All the foreign debt shall be hereafter distinguished
as active debt and passive debt.
" Its conversion into active debt and passive debt shall take
place in the proportion of one-half into active debt, and the
other half into passive debt.
" The arrears of interest of the old loans shall be reim.
bursed by Rentes of the passive debt.
" Art. 4. A new Rentc of 5 per cent. shall be created, to
represent the active debt, into which shall be converted the
part of the old foreign loans comprehended in the active debt.
Art. G. The active debt shall comprehend, in the first
place, 04e debt with interest, which the Government may here-
after create ; and, in the second place, the old debt, mentioned
in Article 1, which shall participate in the payment of interest
which is applicable to the active debt.
" Art. 6. The passive debt is composed of the part of the
debt mentioned in Article 1, which may be converted into
active debt.

The obligations of the passive debt will bear no interest :
means for a sinking fund and re-imbursement will ulteriorly
be provided.
Ad. 7. All the obligations and titles which now repre-
sent the foreign debt, will be exchanged for others that are
new within 18 months from the promulgation of this law.
The Secretary of State and of Universal Dispatch for the
Treasury will take the necessary means, in order that the said
conversion may be verified at the Exchanges of London, Paris,
and Amsterdam.
" At the end of the term above fixed, all the old obliga-
tions and titles which have not been presented will, in conse-
quence, be totally annulled.
" Art 8. A sinking fund of one-half per cent, per annum,
will be provisionally applied to the totality of the new funds
created, which bear an interest of 5 per cent.
" Art. 9. The sinking fund shall be applied exclusively to
the active debt ; but as soon as there shall have been purchased
a certain sum, of which the amount shall be fixed he

DISTRESS OF THE NEW YORK MERCHANTS.

From the recent arrival of New York papers, we copy the
following Notice to the New York Merchants :
" Whence the apathy of the New York merchants in the
present crisis of general pecuniary distress ? While the whole
commercial population of other cities are moving in the de.
mand upon Congress for relief, why do the merchants of New
York, the great commercial mart of the New World, where the
distress is already severe, lie as depressed to the earth by the
nightmare ?
" In the Senate Mr. Clay laid upon the table the following
Resolution :
" Resolved—That the Committee onFinance be directed to in-
quire into the inexpediency of affording temporary relief to the
community, from the present pecuniary embarassment, by pro-
longing the payment of Revenue Bonds, as they fall due, the
obligers paying interest and giving satisfactory security."

HATTON-GARDEN.

Yesterday Benjamin Buckle, aged IS, and Thomas
Griffin, aged 14, were charged with having stolen
-everal fur caps, the:property of Mr, James Spencer,
salesman, of 5, Bachelor's-row, Battle_bridge ; and
Liam Crew, the owner of a marine store shop, was
charged with having received the same, knowing them to
have been stolen.
Griffin was admitted as King's evidence against the
other prisoners, and they denied the charge, but were
fully committed for trial at the Old Bailey.
QUEEN-S QUARE.
A FORTUNATE THIEF.-Yesterday a half-starved look-
ing man named Smith, was charged with stealing a loaf
of bread from the shop of a baker, at Lambeth. The
baker, however, refused to appear against him, and the
Magistrate discharged the prisoner, at the same time or-
dering the bread to be given up to him. The man took
the bread with much avidity, and commenced eating it
before he got out of the office. In less than one hour
the prisoner was again brought to the office, charged with
stealing a lump of cheese from d shop in Tuthill street,
and as in the previous case the man was discharged, the
shopkeeper refusing to prosecute. The cheese was also
in this instance given to hint, and as he had some portion
of the bread left, he sat down outside the office and ap-
parently made a hearty meal.
An Irish shoemaker named John Neale was committed
for trial for stealing a shin of beef from the shop of Mr.
Hoare, eating house-keeper, Strutton-ground, West-
minster. The prisoner at twelve o'clock on Saturday
night went into the prosecutor's shop, and called fir two
pennyworth of soup. On going out lie was detected with
the shin of beef, valued at 2s. The prisoner in his
defence said, that the prosecutor followed him out with
the shin bone and then charged him with the robbery.
He denied that it was worth two shillings, as he could
buy as many as he could carry for a shilling each.

possess very great interest.
The highest quotation of white wheat of the first
quality at Hamburg is 100 rix.dullars current per last,
which answers to 11. 12s. 3d. the English quarter of
eight bushels imperial measure, and the highest quota-
tion of red wheat of the first quality at Hamburg is
95 rix_dollars current per last, which answers to
11. 108. 7d. the English quarter of eight bushels imperial
measure, and therefore the mean price at Hamburg
of white and red wheat together is 11. 1 Is. sd. the
quarter. The highest quotation of white wheat in
Mark-lane is 31. the quarter, and the highest quotation of
red
wheat is 21. 14s. the quarter, and therefore the mean
price in Mark.lane, of white and red wheat together is
21. 17s. the quarter. It appears, then, that wheat is 81i
per cent. dearer in London than at Hamburg, and that
with the sum of 21. 17s. a man may buy 14} bushels of
wheat at Hamburg, whereas with the same sum he can
only buy 8 bushels in London.
The average price of wheat at Hamburg during the
past year, 1833. was 84. rix_dollars current per last,
which answers to 11. 7s. the quarter of 8 bushels impe-
rial measure, and the average price of wheat in Eng-
land and Wales, during the same period, was 21. 13s.
the quarter, and therefore the average price of Eng-
land and Wales was 96 3 10ths per cent. higher than
the average price of Hamburg ; so that generally.
throughout the year 1833 a man with the sum of
21. 13s. might have bought 15 7.10 bushels of w!iei,t
at Hamburg, whereas with the same sum he could
have bought only eight bushels in England and Wales.
The highest quotation of Zealand white wheat of the

THE FUNDS.

Another express has again arrived from Paris, and the spe-
culators in Spanish Bonds are again disappointed. No infor-
mation, not even a notice, has been conveyed to them respecting
the acknowledgment of the Cortes Bonds. This is indeed a
deathblow to the holders of this unfortunate security, and they
have been receding gradually since Saturday when they were
at 33 ; they may this morning be quoted 281.

We observe in a morning journal of this day two letters
from Lisbon of the 2d of January, giving a different version of the
two sorties from Santarem, by Don Miguel's troops. The first
letter states that both Saldanha and the Duke of Terceira were
obliged to retreat; but the second letter of the same date
gives us a hint that Don Miguel's army is prepar,ng for a re-
treat from Santarem, as he has moved off all his baggage and
artillery to the other side of the Tagus.

Consols, which left off yesterday at 89f f for the Account,
opened at the same price, with little doing as yet.

In the Foreign Market Spanish and Portuguese Stocks are
rather heavy, as the speculators begin to be rather alarmed,
particularly those who deal in the Spanish Bonds.
HALF-PAST ONE.
A letter is positively in town from an English officer on
board one of Donna Maria's ships in the Tagus, dated the
Ist inst., stating that Santarem had been evacuated, and only
a few prisoners were left behind.
The date of the above letter gives us reason not to credit the
above information, as yet, as there are letters of the 2d inst.,
which do not mention this important event, and it would have
been known at Lisbon on the 2d, and published immediately.
Up to the present hour we have no fresh arrivals or reports
to communicate.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Nov. 4.

John Ward was opposed by Mr. WOODROFFE for Mr.
Burrell, a veterinary surgeon, Mr. Densett, coachmaker.
Lisle-street, and Mr. Kempster, coachmaker, Rupert-street,
He was supported by Mr. COOKE.
The insolvent had kept livery-stables in Great Wind-
mill-street, Haymarket. His debts amonnted to 1,5871.,
his credits to 1621. The ground of opposition to the dis-
charge of the insolvent was, that he had made away with
his property, to the injury of his creditors, and that he Lad
not produced the books containing the accoun of his
dealings.
The Court wa soccupied a considerable time in an inves-
tigation of what had been done with 19 horses which his late
ostler swore were on his premises on the 25th of June last,
and also as to what bad become of several carriages and gigs.
It appeared that an execution had been put into the pro-
mises in Windmill-street, iu August last, at the suit of a
creditor named Tovey, and that a portion of the property
had been sold under it. Another portion had been made
over to a person named Smith, who was stated to have be-
come security with another person to Mr. ,Tovey for 100/.,
which Mr. Tovey had advanced to the insolvent. The in-
solvent was further indebted to Mr. Tovey in the sum of
117/. for horses and carriages.
The Learned Commissioner Bow Er., after an investiga.
tion of several hours, adjourned the case for further evidence.

" still small voice" which every man hears in his
bosom. Consequently, in the present state of society,
we think it would be an unsafe experiment to abolish
swearing altogether ; not that we are advocates of the'
practice considered per se, for to every honest man and
true philosopher the taking of an oath is a vain and
useless ceremony—it is like gilding refined gold, or
painting the lily, for truth is truth, and an oath, be it
ever so solemn, cannot heighten it. But the point at
issue between us and the writer reduces itself to a mere
question of time ; he says, " Abolish oaths, now."
We say, No I mankind have not yet arrived at that
intellectual and happy pitch when truth, and the love
of it, shall be stronger in their hearts than gain or re-
venge. Till then, we fear the practice must be con-
tinued, disgraceful as it is to the probity of our race.
The article on the " Stamp Laws" is a well written
expose of the present system of stamps used in the legal
profession. Another Session of Parliament will most
probably show us what Government intend to do for
the .amelioration of this matter. " The Life of Lord
Macclesfield" is interesting and well told, but contains
nothing to call for extract.

THE BOTANICAL REGISTER.
By Dr. LINDLEY. No. 9of Vol. 7. New Series.
Ridgway, Piccadilly.

The number before us of this work, contains a fine
drawing of the celebrated "Variegated Chinese Azalea,"
which so many attempts have been made in vain, for
these twenty years, to procure alive. The " Talauma
Candollii," is also a magnificent plant. It is a native
of Java, where it is found growing in thickets, to the
height -of about fifteen feet, and perfuming the air with
so delicious an odour, that the very Javanese think it
worth the pains of cultivation. The flowers are a pale
lemon colour ; but they change to a sort of buff, in
which state they are represented by the drawing. As
a green-house twiner, " Kennedya Nigricans " will
merit much attention, and prove a fine addition to the
species. Seeds of it were collected by Dr. Nisbet, in
New Holland, and specimens were supplied from the
garden of Boyd Miller, Esq., near Mitcham. The re-
maining subjects are pretty, and of various interest.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.-(THIS DAY.

Mr. William Blanchard, the comedian, applied this
morning on his petition to be discharged ; he was unop-
posed, but was supported by Mr. COOKE.
The petitioner was interrogated by Mr. Commissioner
BOWEN. He stated that his wife resided in furnished
apartments, and that the greater portion of his debts had
been contracted before he went to America. •
Mr. COOKE called the attention of the Court to a state-
ment made in the schedule, which would explain the cause
of Mr. Blanchard's appearance in this Court ; he had lost
1,0001. and upwards by the failure of an engagement at
New York. If the engagement had been productive, all
the debts would have been paid, and Mr. Blanchard would
have had something for himself.
Mr. Commissioner BOWEN said he had read the statement.
Mr. COOKE remarked that Mr. Blanchard was to have
had 30/. a week for nine months ; he obtained but a very
small sum, hence his insolvency.
Mr. Blanchard was declared entitled to the benefit, and
ordered to be discharged ; his debts are not large, and ex-
tend over a lengthened period.

LIBRARY OF THE COURT.

Mr. AGAR adverted to the question of the liability of the
Suitors' Fund to bear the cost of repairing or replacing
the books of the library, and observed that he thought the
words of the 16th and 17th sections of the 50th Geo. 111.

would fully warrant his Lordship in making an-order
for that purpose . By that Act the interest of a certain
sum was set apart for the payment of salaries and all neces-
sary expenses in the repairs or alterations of the Court of
Chancery, and he conceived that the word "repairs" would
fully apply to the library and its furniture, the most impor-
tant part of which was the books.
His LORDSHIP doubted whether the word could be so
construed ; but he was much obliged to the Learned Coun-
sel for the trouble he had taken in the matter, and he would
certainly look into the Act, in order to ascertain the extent
of his power over the Fund for the purpose alluded to. The
books were only fortunately wet, not burnt, and the cost of
the repairs would be trifling.

man, the meeting adjourned.

kingdom deprived of any of its present resources. On
the contrary, there are few ways in which so much
good might be done as by a faithful application of the
means intrusted to their care. Even splendour and
hospitality, if confined within reasonable bounds, no
one wishes to curtail. But the system of flagrant job-
bing and corruption which evidently exists is what all
who do not partake of it must wish to see done away
with, and that, instead of the concealment which
originates in a consciousness of wrong, all the accounts
of those bodies should be as explicit and open as honest
accounts always should be.—Morning Herald.

FURS.

Foreign Fur Warehouse, No. 92, Oxford-street.
MESSRS. SNIEDER and CO., Wholesale and
Retail Furriers, have just completed, in the Russian and
German Markets, their new Assortment of FURS, for the WIN-
TER SEASON, which are of a most splendid, unique, and novel
description, superior to any hitherto produced in England.
Where is exhibiting their RUSSIA SHAWL CLOAK, first
introduced into this country, which, for elegance and general uti-
lity has become so ornamental an appendage to Female Costume
amongst the elite of Paris, Vienna, and St. Petersburgh, entirely
superseding the common make of Cloaks, and which must prove
highly attractive to Ladies purchasing for the evening promenade,
sea-side, or rural retirement.
Also, the attention of the Fashionable World is directed to a
new Fur recently imported by Snieder and Co., entitled the
KOLINSKI, which is introduced by their House under Special
Patronage, for Dress Muffs and Boas, the light and elegant appear_
ante of which has never been surpassed.
N.B. Furs cleaned and exchanged.
