SON AND OTHERS.

This was a rule to show cause why a criminal informa-
tion should not be filed against the Times newspaper, for
publishing a libel on the Earl of Glengall.
Sir J. SCARLETT this day appeared in behalf cf the de-
fendants. he libel, he said, arose out of a statement made
by a woman at one of the chief Police offices, imputing to
an Irish Peer that he was the father of her illegitimate
children, and that lie had deserted her. Several of the
newspapers gave the report without the name of the Noble
person, hut the Times, in answer to inquiries at their
office, published the name of the Earl of Glengall. Aft r
the publication, an investigation took place at the Magis-
trate's office, when it was clear that the woman's story
was a fraudulent attempt to impose both on the Lord
Mayor and the Earl of Glengall. The whole of the sub-
sequent investigation was given fully by the Times, and
Sir James Scarlett was authorized to state that the men-
tioning of the Earl of Glengall's name was without the
least intention to give his Lordship pain. A great many
persons, members of the Peerage, and others, applied to
know who the Irish Peer was, and it became necessary to
satisfy the public, and prevent a slur on the whole body
of the Peerage, that the individual Peer should he named.
He had to state that Mr. Lawson had not felt the least
desire to give his Lordship uneasiness by the publication.
He regretted that the name had been published, but no-
thing had been reported but what was proved. Lord
Glengall's name was mentioned at the examination, and
that might be some excuse. Under all the circumstances
reparation had been made by a subsequent publication, and
therefore his hope was that the rule would he discharged.
Mr. Por.tocs: was astonished to hear his L-arned Friend
state the ground on which it was asserted the rule ought
to be discharged. There was nothing more erroneous than
the idea that the editor of a newspaper owed a duty to
the public or to pt ivate individuals which called upon him
to publish ex parts statements made at Police kifices. If
those statements were calculated to wound the feelings ol
others and their friends, they should not be male. If he
understool his Learned Friend's expression, it amounted to
this—that on the part of the publisher there was no in-
tention to impute to Lord Glengall any blame in the
Mansion-house transaction. On that ground he would
consent to the rule being discbarged.
Sir J. Scaarm—l intended that. I pronounced a
declaration of regret for the publication, and a belief of
his entire innocence.—Rule di-charged.

METROPOLITAN POLICE REGULATIONS.—Yesterday
Captain Carden, superintendent of the police division
letter S, came before Mr. Rawurasorr, in consequence of
a complaint on the part of the worthy Magistrate against
Sergeant Smith, of the S division, for not taking a charge
under the following circumstances :—About seven o'clock
on Tuesday morning Mr. Robert Hughes, broker, No.
25, phoenix-street, Somers-town, sent his man to distress
the goods for rent in a house No. 12, Phoenix-plane, occu-
pied by a Mrs. Raven, who knocked the man down with
a jug, by hitting him on the head, in consequence of which
wound he hied protusely. The man showed his warrant,
but alio only provoked her anger, for on a pers,n coining
to his assistanee he was attacked with a knife by a man
of the name of Daniel Hannagan, who lodged in the house,
who cut his assistant across the knuckles. The man
escaped, as also did another one who aided and abetted
Haniaigan in his murderous attempt. Two policemen
came anti took the woman into custody. On appearing at
the s'ation-house in Placenix.street, the prosecutor was in
a weak state from bias of wood. Sergeant Smith, then on
duty, refused to take the charge, and a second time per-
sisted in pursuing the same course. The prisoner was
brought up in custody of Mr. Samuel Shuttleworth, one
of the beadles of St. Pancras parish. In consequence a
warrant was given into the hands of Mr. Shuttleworth
from the office to apprehend the prisoner, upon which she
was brought up yesterday.
Captain Carders said that such were the orders upon
which the sergeant had acted.
The worthy Magistrate highly deprecated sue', a mode
of procedure, and considered such a course as not likely to
promote the ends of justice. He considered that the
Commissioners should adopt a more judicious metros

THE FUNDS.

One of our leading morning journals appears again to be
very ominous ; it forebodes that our present Ministry will soon
be turned out of office by the Tory Lords. At present we
cannot contradict this prophecy; at all events it has had the
effect of lowering the Funds this morning.
Consols, which left off yesterday at 90% for the Account,
opened at 90% Y 2, afterwards were done at 901,4 %, at which
price they are at present, with 'it le dring.
The Foreign Market is without any interest at present.
HALF-.PAST ONE.
We still continue without any further arrivals.
The private letters from Lisbon are void of important in-
formation ; all they say izt hat they are on the eve of some irn..
portant event. It is stated that the Duke de Cardoval is dead.
We hear that Government has received an express from
Vienna, but the contents have not transpired.
The Austrian Funds have improved.
Consols continue heavyjat 90?{ % for the Account, with
little doing.

In the Foreign Market they are making up their accounts

THE WEST INDIA MEETING.

1, Yesterday a meeting was held at the Thatched House
ot,i"n, St. James's street, consisting of the ptincipal pro
141ta, mortgagees, and merchants, connected with the
4nd of Jamaica, and of several influential persons con_
acted with the other West India Colonies. About seventy
t
'4lernen were present-
leCOUllt ST. VINCENT was called to the chair, and was
l'l'Aported by the Earl oc HA ARWOOD, and several Mem-
'4 of the House of Commons.

Ofter a very long conv,r,ational discussion, the Meeting
'qpted the toEowinc,, resolutions:—
I: I. It is the opinion of this Meeting that the mode of ap.
iii.‘„Driation adopted, or supposed to be adopted, by Mr. Stanley,
tioj'iust, and not fair as regards the Island of Jamaica."—Car-
; unanimously.
2. That the distribution of the grant `per capita' is most
4,..145, the speediest, and most generally just, both as it con-
-4 the Colonies and individuals."
W. n Sir W GRANT oppo,..ed the resolution, but finding
.4,k
ti 'Jody to second it, lie withdrew his opposition and re-
red, and the resolution was carried unanimously.
, 3. That a Committee be appointed to draw up a Memorial
)47 Presented to Mr. Stanley, conformably to the two preceding
to,'lntions, and that the following Noblemen and Gentlemen do
the said Committee—Viscount St. Vincent, Earl of Hare-
-d,h and Messrs. Burge, Philpots, Hodson, and Barrett."
4he thanks of the meeting were then given to the Noble
Chairman, and the meeting was dissolved.

NEW COURT.

ATTEMPT TO Muanza.--George Williams and James Rogers,
two ruffianly fellows, were capitally indicted for attempting to
murder Mrs. Elizabeth Lower, on the 422 d of February last.
Mrs. Lower, the prosecutrix, was the wife of James Lower,
a tailor, living at No. W., Heddon-street, Regent-street. On
the day mentioned in the indictment the two prisoners called
at her house, and asked to see Mr. Lower. Witness told them
he was not at home, upon which they requested permission to
write a note for him. She introduced them into the bac':
parlour, and left them there whilst she went into the front for
soma pens and paper. On her return, just as she opened the
door, she was attacked by the prisoner Rogers, who struck her
over the head with a crowbar, which knocked her to the ground,
when Williams put his fingers to her mouth to prevent her
making any alarm. Whilst on the ground a double knock came
to the door, whereupon both the prisoners ran out, telling the
erso i at the door to go in, for that the old woman was bein
murdered. Witness caused an immediate alarm, and Williams
was taken into custody soon after, and Rogers was apprehended
at the end of the week. Witness swore positively to the
persons of the prisoners.
Cross.examined by Mr. CLARKSON.—She said she was the
wife of James Lower; that she had been married to him
several years ; that she did not know the name of the church
where the ceremony took place, but she thought it was in the
but could not tell the name of the street, nor could she
recollect who was present at the marriage. _
_ . _

From the loose manner in which she gave the evidence,
the Court was of opinion, that she was not married to Lower,
and she underwent a very rigid cross-examination by the
Court and Counsel.

From the defect of evidence, the prisoners were acaultted-

THE THEATRES.

The following notice was exhibited yesterday
afternoon at the doors of the Theatre Royal, Drut).
lane :

" Theatre Royal, Drury-lane, April 16, Half-past 4.
" The public are respectfully informed that, in cooNe-
quence of the increased indisposition of several of the
principal performers, the account of which has been only
just received, the theatre will be closed this evening."
A further notice stated, that tickets bought for
that evening would be admissible on any future
occasion, or that the motif paid for them would be
returned.

Numerous parties, unapprised of the closing of
the theatre, came at the usual hour of admission,
and evinced evident marks of disappointment at the
abuve circumstance.

There were no fewer than four theatres unex-
pectedly closed last night, viz., the Opera-house,
Covent-garden Theatre, Drury-lane Theatre, and
the Strand Thedtre.

SAVINGS' BANKS.

Lord ALTHORP moved the first reading of a Bill to
enable persons to purc'•ase small annuities !hroueb the
means of the Savings' Banks. The Noble Lord entered
into a detail of the advantage, which would ari+e from
enabling poor persons, by a small monthly payment, to
secure an annuity for life which would render them com-
fortable in their old age.
Sir T. FREEMANTLE observed that the Bill of the
Noble Lord would super,etie a motion- of which he bad
given notice.

Mr. T. ATTWOOD observed that the system of the
Sivings' Banks took 60,000/ out of the national purse.
There was no obj,et answered by the Savings' Ranks
which mold not be ecpiaby answered by the county
narik.rs, who were always ready to receive deposits of
201. and upwards.

An HON. MEMBER oppose,' the motion.
Mr. PEASE observed, that there was, at least, a great
necessity for inquiry.
Lord ALTHOIIP replied that the Commissioners had
the power of chsing any Savings' Banks, if the accounts
were not prupetly sent in.

. .
Leave was th..n given to bring in the Bill.
Mr. O'CONNELL moved for copies of all proclamations
and orders issu,il by the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, and r
the statute of 3d Wilhata IV. c. 4; return of the number
of persons committed to the gaol of the county of the city
of Kilkenny fur the last twelve months, specifyinz the
crimes or offences for which each person was committed,
bow many were indicted and tried, and the result of each
trial; copy of any de,pitch or letter from the Lord Lieu-
tenant of Ireland, or his Secretary, stating the reasons fur
proclaiming the county of the city of Kilkenny to be in a
state of insubordination or disturbance, pursuant to the
Art 3d William IV. c. 4.

SCOTCH BURGH REFORM.

Mr. KENNEDY moved for leave to bring in a Bill to
provide for the appointment and election of magistrates
and councillors for the several burghs and towns of Scot-
land, which now return, or contribute to return Members
to Parliament, and are not royal burghs; also for a BM
to provide for the election and appointment of magistrates
and councillors for divers burghs, towns, and places in
Scotland, which send no representative to Parliament,
and are not loyal burghs; also a BiH to regulate and di.
minish the annuity tax now levied on the city of Edin-
burgh, and to take away the exemption of members of the
colt ge of justice from payment of the said annuity tax,
awl the assessments for the poor; also a Bill to empower
his Majesty to issue a commission for inquiring into the
condition of the several royal burghs, and other burghs
and towns in Scotl tad, and reporting what may be fit
to be done for their improvement, and the correction of
any defects or abuses that may be found to exist.—Leave
given.

Mr. .O'CONNELL inquired respecting the Irish popu-
lAion returns.

Mr. STANLEY replied that circumstances had hitherto
prevented their preparation.
The other ord •ts of the day were then disposed of, and
the House adjourned at one o'clock.

MARKET INTELLIGENCE

LONDON MARKETS.
(From the " London New Price Current" of yesterday.)
SUQALL—The Sugar Market was open only three days
last week, on account of the holyday time, the purchases
exceeded 2,000 hhds. and trs„ at prices Is. per cwt,
higher, on account of the late lamentable news from the
West Indies, and the trade being out of stock. The stock of
West India Sugar is now 13,393 hhds. and trs., which is
7,631 snore than last year. Tue stock of Mauritius is
54 909 bags, being 3,260 more than last year. Tue de-
livery of West I.,clia Sugar is 2,474 hhds. and trs., being
1 071 more tha,, las year. The delivery of Mauritius
4 252 bugs, being 7,150 less than the corresponding week
of 1832. At the e!cse of the Market this afternoon, the
estimat• d sales this day, including theliirbadoes, are only
600 !Ads. and trs., but the prices are rather higher, and
a very firm market. Towards the close of the last week,
there was more firmness in the Refined Market ; the prices
were also a Aide higher, large Lumps, which had 6en
selling freely at 605., could not be purchased under 61s.
in any parcels ; Crushed, which had been selling at
28e. 61., salt] in I age parcels at 295. ; the wholesale
grocers were also large buyers of tine goods for the home
consumption of the country, and all inferior goods were
more in demand. There is no alteration in the Refined
Market this aftetno,n.
EAST INDIA SUCARS.—There was no a:teration in East
India &Tu. ',pat At k. .

jIIAUItITIOS SUGARS.—At the public sa'e, on Friday, of
5,280 begs Mauritius Sugars, the prices were Is. higher,

bags M.uritius Sugar sold freely, not only fully main-a,n-
irtu the late advirme, bet in several instinces realising a

puns. 25 birds. Demerara Molasses, mid..quality, partly
sold at 235.

lows that, in the nature of things, the one must,
to a certain degree, be playing the game of the
other; but when -parties are forced, as it were,
into this species of- unnatural union, who is it
that can alone avert the consequences but Mi-
nisters themselves? They have it in their
power, by a very slight manifestation of a
different line of policy, to detach by far the larger
party from the smaller one. Lord Brougham
is said to have been so struck by the cordi-
ality, and almost unanimity, which marked
the late general election on behalf of Minis-
ters, as to have exclaimed " We shall be too
strong !" Alas ! that is not now the case. A
very short period of disappointment has made
sad havoc in the pleasing fruition of this proud
boast ; and, were another general election to
take place to-morrow, the exclamation, we appre-
hend, both of the Learned Lord, and his col-
lea:flies would he " We shall be too weak !"
And what does all this prove, but that in a po-
pular government public opinion must always
be the most it,fluential, and, indeed, controliing
principle, and one over which no effort to defeat
or di,regard it can ever for any material length
of time prevail ? The party opponents of Mi-
nisters knew this full well. They knew that
were the infatuated policy of the present Ad-
ministration to place them in their seats to-
morrow, they must yield to public opinion the
measures which their predecessors shall 'have
withheld. Such being the case, then, what is
Lord Grey's Government about that it thus
allows itself to pave the way for others to enjoy
a triumph which tnight and ought to belong to
itself ?—Morning Herald.
We perceive by the Orders of the Day of the
House of Commons that he second reading of
the following most important Bills is axed for
this evening

British Poss.ssion4 Bill, Registry of Vess,ls Bill. Cus-
toms Dutii-s Bill, Customs Alan ,ge•nent Bill, Customs
Bounties Bill, Customs Regulations Bill, I 1..0f Man Trade
Bill, Warebousinv Bt I, Smuggling Bill, Navigation Bill

As these Bills involve regulations of the
deepest interest to the commerce and navigation
of the country, we trust that our commercial re-
presentatives will not sleep at their posts, but
will minutely scrutinize the provisions t•f the
proposed enactments, and carefully watch their
progress through Parliament. Changes of the
most sweeping character are frequently intro-
duced into such Bills without even the know-
ledge of the parties interested, by whom they
are passed without examination in unsuspecting
confidence. We do not find that these Bills
have yet been delivered to Members, and we
cannot but suspect manoeuvring when matters are
attempted to be thus carried.—Morning Post.

LONDON,
WEDNESDAY EVENING, APRIL 10, 1833.

Earl GREY is said to have offered a seat in
the Cabinet to Mr. EDWARD ELLICE, the new
Secretary at War. It is not thought, however,
that Mr. ELLICE will accept it, as his opinions
are, on many subjects, more liberal than those
of his colleagues, and he is anxious to avoid
unpleasant collision.

Mr. ROBERT GRANT intends to bring for-
ward his motion in favour of the Jews on the

17th inst., and he is, we understand, confident
of success. As the House of Commons is

now composed, nothing indeed could prevent
the success of the motion but a strong feeling
out of doors against the Jews, which does not
appear to exist, for we hear of no petitions—at
least none of importance—in opposition to their
claim for enfranchisement ; and it is mentioned
as a fact highly creditable to the metropolis, that
the petitions in their favour received 100,000
signatures in a few days. What an extraordi-
nary change has education made since the period
when Mr. PELHAM made his efforts in their
behalf! At that time, with the Ministry in
their favour, and with a House of Commons
much disposed to assist them, such was the
out-door clamour against the Jews, that the
attempt to emancipate them fell to the ground ;
and all subsequent attempts have met with the
same fate. Now, however, if they should fail,

the denial of justice will be with the House of
Commons, not with the people, who, from having
been found hostile, then indifferent, are become
on the whole favourable to their claims.

As members of the Christian faith, We cannot
object to any restrictions of a purely religious
nature which the House of Lords may in their
Conservative wisdom choose to propose, pro-
vided they be founded only on the supposed
necessity of providing security for themselves,
and not on a spirit of persecution against the
Jews. We were told when Catholic Emancipa-
tion was applied for, that in three years we
hould have the POPE become the Chief Patrons
of the Treasury, and a Roman Catholic Arch-
bishop at the head of the Protestant Church.
We shall be now told, perhaps, that in three
years, the HIGH PRIEST of the Jews will
change places with the Archbishop of CANTER.
BURY, and Baron RoniscHlLD take the place
of Earl GREY. But the day for effect for such
nonsense has gone by. In the present state of
education there is little danger of our becoming
Catholics and Jews, or of allowing the influence
of those religions to prevail in matters of State.
The same liberality, however, which secures us
against conversion to religious error, tells us that
we cannot justly withhold from British subjects
the rights to which they are entitled, merely
because they differ from us in their religious
faith ; and reason tells us that at a time when our

THE FUNDS.

To-day and to-morrow being holydays with the He-
brews, few of them will make their appearance on the
Stock Exchange, consequently very little business is ex-
pected to take place. Consols opened at the same price
they left off, S7i 4 for Account.

HALF-PAST ONE.

The 'Wellington transport has arrived from Oporto,
which she left on the Ist inst., but we do not hear she
brings any news of consequence.
Report says that the Dutch Government have put
their East Indian Shipping under neutral flags.
Should this prove true, a further proclamation may
be expected in that long and tiresome negotiation,
and another Order in Council for a complete blockade of
the Dutch ports. The above is only report, and we do
not attach much credit to it.

Consols have been during the most, part of the morning
at one price, 87i 4for account, but within this hour they
are a shade better, and done at 874, with a languid Market.
In the Foreign Market the only speculation is in SpAnish
Bonds, which have rather improved than otherwise.
We are exceedingly dull in the City for want of intel-
ligence.

TIN DUTIES.—The deputation appointed
by the mining interests of this county to represent to Go-
vernment the nature of the harassing fees and restrictions
to which they are subject, for the purpose of obtaining a
removal thereof, have had interviews with Lord ALTIIOII2,
the result of which will be reported to a general meeting,
to be held at Truro on Friday. In the meantime we may
state, that Lord ALTHOR,P said it was not in the power of
Ministers to interfere with the duty on tin, which be-
longed to his MAJEsTY, as Duke of CORNWALL, but that
everything possible would be done to remove the causes of
complaint arising from the regulations as to the coinage.
All the fees, except the post-groats, which are held under
lease, should be abolished ; coinages will be held every six
weeks, and Havle will be made a coinage town—in fact,
everything short of giving up the duties and the post-
groats will be conceded.—Falmouth Parket.
CAUTION TO EMIGRANTS.—The particu-
lars of a case of fraud were communicated to us on Satur-
day which ought to operate as a warning to persons about
to emigrate. Without entering into details, we may say
generally, that the guards and the coachmen of some
coaches seem to be in league with certain passenger-
brokers, who are not over scrupulous when they get an
ignorant countryman into their hands. Our advice to
intended emigrants is, that they should apply, immediately
on their arrival in town, to respectable passenger•brokers,
who will take care that they are embarked on board of
good vessels, and on reasonable terms. Let them, above
all, avoid making acquaintance with men about the docks,
many of whom are swindlers.—.-. Liverpool Albion.

CITY, TWELVE 0' CL 0 CK.
Our chief arrival this mornings are from India, but mos,
of them are of old dates.

Madras papers, to the 4th of November, have been
received at the North and South American Coffee-house.
(From the papers of the 3d of November.)

Letters from bead-quarters state that the Governor_
General and lady were expected to reach Harnaul on
the 27th, and that the disturbances in the Jeypoot and
Rajhoot were in a train of amicable settlement.
The ship, Madras, in which the Honourable Stephen
Lushington had taken his passage to England, was re-
ported to be ready, on the 28th, for sea. On that day
the whole of the troops in garrison, with the Governor's
body-guard, formed a street to the Sea-gate, on the occa-
sion of Mr. Lushington's embarkation, who embarked un-
der a salute of 19 guns.
The American packet-ship, from New York, of the
16th of March, is off Liverpool. Letters and papers are
not yet received.

We bear that very serious disturb mces were near taking
place in India, owing to their religious rites being dis-
turbed by driving a pig into one of their pagodas. The
native engineers had prepared their guns for an attack on
the Company's troops; but, through the interference of
superior authority, the effusion of blood was prevented, and
some of the ringleaders were shot.
Extract of a letter from St. Domingo, dated 19th
February :—" Our coffee crops are very short, much more
so than in the preceding year. The orders from the
French ports are very large. Coffee is worth 15 dollars
25 sous to 15 dollars 50 sous on board, and our markets
are glutted with American produce.

GUILDHALL.

A DEAR HOLYDAY FROLlC.—Richard Dyer, a
mechanic, was brought before Sir JOHN KEY yester-
day, charged with assaulting Giovanni Legalo, an
aged itinerant musician.
The old Italian was passing along Holborn with
a musical instrument hanging before him, when it
struck the defendant it would be a funny thing to
knock the old man head over heels across a child's
chaise that was going along the pavement. It was
done in a moment—the instrument was shattered,
and the Italian much frightened and bruised. The
defendant ran away, but was overtaken.
A gentleman who was passing, described it as a
wanton and disgraceful outrage.
The defendant did not mean to do any harm, but
he knew not what he did

In reply to a question from Sir JOHN KEY, the
Italian said lie thought his instrument could not be
repaired for less than 20 francs.
Sir JOHN could not excuse such gross misconduct
towards an inoffensive foreigner. He should re-
quire compensation fur the assault and loss of time,
as well as the damage.
The prisoner offered 10s.
That will not do, replied Sir JOHN.
The prisoner, after pausing a lirtle, offered 20s.

No, said Sir JOHN, you must bid higher.
Prisoner could not. He was a poor hard-work-
ing man, and really could not spare more.
Well, unless you pay him 305., I will commit you
to hard labour for two months, rejoined the Magis-
trate. If you are pinched severely to raise this sum
you will not be punished more than you deserve. I
wish to impress this affair on your memory.
The prisoner sorrowfully agreed to pay the money,
and was disch,:rged.
A smart young woman, named Ann Hayden, who
had a green pocket-handkerchief about her head in
place of a bonnet, was next put to the bar.
Isaac Easley, a watchman, found her sitting in a
recess on Blackfriars-bridge, about 4 o'clock in the
morning. He told her he could not allow her to
remain there, and she then raid that she had walked
till she was tired, and, if he must force her away,
she hoped he would take her somewhere for pro-
tection, as she had no home nor friends. He took
her to the Counter.
Sir JOHN KEY asked if she was sober ?

The watchman said, quite so.
The prisoner, in reply to questions from the Ma-
gistrate, was living with her husband in the neigh-
bourhood of the Cornwall-road, and he having told
her in anger that she should not remain in his house,
she had walked out and strolled up and down till
she was tired.
Sir JOHN asked if she had informed her husband
where she was? She said she had not.
Sir JOHN inquired if she would now go home if
he discharged her? She promised that she would;
upon which he dismissed her, telling her that if her
husband ill-treated her, she had better apply to the
Magistrates for protection than follow the course
she had adopted on the present occasion.

THE FUNDS.

Consols, which left off yesterday 90 buyers, opened this
morning at 99 %, soon after were done at 90 34 ; but the giving
way of MiniAgris in the House of Commons to the Tories on the
Irish Churcfi lab", caused Consols to recede to 90 % for the
account, at which price they are at present, with little doing.
Nothing doing in the Foreign Market.
HALF-PAST ONE.

A vessel called the Menelaus, Austin, has arrived from
Boulogne at Ramsgate, with French troops on board, for Oporto.
A report prevails that some disturbances have taken place on
board the said vessel, between our sailors and the Frenchmen,
owing to which the ship is detained from proceeding to its des.
tination. Up to the present hour we have no fresh arrivals.

Consols, which were done in the early part of the morning
at 90% for the Account, may be quoted at present 903 to IA ,
with little doing. The Market appears heavy.
In the Foreign Market no business of consequence: prices
much the same as yesterday.

STATE OF TRADE AT BOLTON.—Within

ate in full employment ; but we are sorry to say, without
any material improvement in wages.— Wakefield Journal.

THE PRACTICE OF BANKING IN

SCOTLAND AND IRELAND.

At the present moment the following extrac
from a letter written by Mr. Watt, the Manager of
the Huddersfield Joint Stock Banking Company,
to " a distinguished Statesman," whom we surmise
to be Sir Robert Peel, will be found interesting.
It is taken from the pamphlet written by Mr. Watt,
to which we referred yesterday :

" April 2, 1830.

" I shall be glad to hear what, in your opinion, are the rea-
sons against a limitation of the responsibility of partners in a
joint stock banking company. It does not follow that the re-
sponsibility must be necessarily limited to the amount of the
share held. Each shareholder might be responsible to three or
four times the amount of the sum subscribed by him."
" April 7, 1830.
_ . . .

" I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your
letter of the 2d instant, and have been prevented by indisposi-
tion from replying to it sooner.
" With regard to objections that may be stated against li-
miting the responsibility of partners in public banking com-
panies, I beg leave to observe, that I feel inclined to deny the
necess ty of the limitation altogether. It is my opinion that,
if the Act of 7th Geo. IV., be amended, banking companies will
gradually be formed in many towns in England, without li-
mited responsibility. It would not be for the good of the
country that numerous establishments of this kind should
spring up all at once.
" I consider public banking companies should be formed
with a view of benefiting the district where they are est,
blished, as much as with an idea of profit to the partners.
" By limiting the responsibility of partners to a few hun-
dred pounds, a great temptation is held out to them to become
trading bankers, and to push their business and their esta-
blishments into towns and districts where they are not wanted,
and where they have no legitimate right to appear. This
would be injurious to the present respectable bankers, and
excite a spirit of competition in banking, which would lead to
consequences you would deprecate.
" The effect of charters with limited responsibility would
be, to place the business of banking in the hands of a few large
companies, such as the Provincial Bank of Ireland, and the
Metropolitan Bank, which contemplates having 200 branches.
I am decidedly of opinion that such wide spreading branches
would not benefit the country in th• manner which local esta-
blishments, similar to the Huddersfield Banking Company, are
calculated to do.

" Besides, it ought not to be taken for granted that there is a
great want of accommodation, which these new banks would
supply.

" No London branch bank, nor joint stock bank, could
exceed the liberal and judicious accommodation afforded to the
mercantile community of Leeds (at the panic) by the wealthy
private bank of Messrs. Beckett and Co.

" I have the honour to be, kc.,
" H. WATT."

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

We have no arrivals as yet of any consequence, but the
length of the debates in both Houses last night, makes up for
the deficiency of Foreign news, particularly in the House of
Commons, where a warm and interesting debate took place on
one of the principal clauses of the Irish Church Bill.

A Quebec paper, of the 26th May, one day later, has been
received at the North and South American Coffee-house. It
states that several families of Scotch emigrants have arrived at
York and Cobourg from New York, and fifty families from the

SERGEAUNT V. RATTY.

Mr. Sergeant WILDE stated that this was an action brought
by the plaintiff against the defendant for crim. con, with his
wife. The plaintiff was the second son of a gentleman of pro-
perty, and was entitled to about 500/. per annum in land and
money in the funds. In May, 1825, he married his present
wife, who was of low origin, without the consent of
his family, and purchased a commission in the army.
In the same year he was quartered at Maidstone, his wife
living in lodgings in the tow», and in the year after both
embarked for the Cape of Good Hope, from whence they re-
turned in the beginning of 1828. In June, 1829, he embarked
for India, leaving his wife in England, having made his will,
under which his wife was sole executrix. When he
returned on account of ill health in January, 18-93,
he found that the defendant Batty, who was a person
living in apparent affluent circumstances, had been in the
habit of visiting his wife since his departure; and in order not
to excite suspicion, had passed himself off upon the servants
as one of her trustees. He was accustomed to visit her daily,
staying late, and remaining alone with her in her dressing_
room, which had been tried by the servants, and found locked.
The learned Counsel then proceeded to call his witnesses, who
were very numerous, and had not finished his case when our
reporter left.
