COURT OF CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.)

COLEMAN V. SMITHIES.
Mr. WAKEFIELD obtained leave to give a notice of motion
in this case before his Lordship, in consequence of Mr. Smi-
thies not having complied with the order made by this Court
in the latter end of last year. The notice had been given
before the Vice-Chancellor, but in consequence of the cause
having been heard before this branch of the Court, it was
thought right to abandon that notice and obtain the leave here.

OPENING OF THE NEW METROPOLITAN COURT.
The LORD CHANCELLOR stated that he intended being in
town on the 31st of October, for the purpose of accompanying
the Lord Chief Justice and Lord Chief Baron to the Old
Bailey, that they might then open the new Metropolitan Court.
The Act will come into operation on the 31st of October,
and in all probability it would suit the convenience of the
Lord May or and the Learned Judges, to have the Court
opened on that day.

ELECTION MONDAY-ETON.

There was an unusually brilliant assemblage of rank,
fashion, and beauty, in the schoolroom at Eton. His Majesty,
who takes the same paternal interest in Eton matters for which
George the Third was so remarkable, was punctual in his at-
tendance, and was received with loud plaudits which were, if
possible, increased by the announcement of his Majesty's re-
quest that the boys should have an extra week's holydays.
The King went in state, accompanied by her Royal High-
ness the Princess Augusta, Prince George, and Lady Clinton,
in the first carriage, and followed by three other carriages, in
which were Lord and Lady lqederick Fitzclarence, Miss Will-
son, Miss Hope Johnstone, Sir Philip and Lady Sydney, Sir
Andrew Barnard, Sir Charles Thornton, and others of the
Suite.
The Royal party were received by the Rev. the Provost and
Fellows, the Rev. Dr. Keate, and the Assistant Masters, by
whom they were ushered into the schoolroom, when the
speeches immediately commenced. The address was spoken
ty Mr. Courthope with peculiar grace and elegance, in the
course of which some clever allusions were made to the once-
contemplated destruction of " Eton's fair fields " by the rail-
road. The speeches were delivered throughout with admirable
feeling and effect, and the concluson was marked by a testi-
monial of feeling which Dr. Keate can never forget. On his
leaving the school the whole body rose and gave him a thun-
dering cheer, the ladies waving their handkerchiefs ; in short,
a more gratifyinc, conclusion to his long and proud career can-
not be imagined.' The speeches were as follow :-
1. Courthope Address
2. Walter Legat. Darii
3. Coote f Alexander }Q. Curtius.

Mr. O'CONNELL was below the Bar, and witnessed the
Coercion Bill pass its last stage.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said he was obliges to
take notice of a matter highly important to the public
business of that House ; he did not at all mean to
complain of it; though it was a most gross misstate-
ment, yet he fully believed that it was not wilful.
It had been stated in every paper in London that the
bastardy clauses of the Poor Law Bill had passed by
a bare majority of one. He did not complain of it,
because no strangers were admitted in the House upoti
divisions, and therefore the mistake might be easily made;
but their Lordships were well aware that so far from pass-
ing by a hollow majority of one, they had been passed by
a majority of nearly 4 to 1, the numbers being 38 to 14.
The subject was one of considerable importance, because,,
had the majority been as stated, he for one would
have been most ready to have taken them into further
consideration upon the bringing up of the Report.
Lord WHARNCLIFFE brought up the report upon the
County Coroner's Bill, and moved two amendments, which
were agreed to, and the Bill ordered to be read a third time
to-morrow.

MESSAGE FROM THE COMMONS.
Mr. GEORGE SINCLAIR and others brought up a Bill

WINDSOR, JULY 6.

Yesterday
.evening the King, accompanied by the Princess
Augusta, arrived at the Castle, in a carriage and four, from St.
James's Palace. His Majesty, accompanied by the Princess
Augusta and the Duchess of Gloucester, attended divine ser-
vice this morning in St. George's Chapel. The Hon. and
Rev. Mr. Long ( Canon in residence) preached the sermon.
The service was Jackson's in C. The anthem was " Lord of
all power and might" (Mason). This is the first time the-
Princess Augusta and the Duchess of Gloucester have at-
tended St. George's Chapel since the death of George 111.
The Princess Augusta will remain with the King at the Castle
during the absence of the Queen in Germany. Lady. Clin-
ton, Miss Hope Johnstone, and Miss Wilson have arrived at
the Castle from town. The Queen is expected to be absent
about six weeks, and will be accompanied on her return by her
brother, the Duke of Saxe Meiningen. The King goes to
town on Wednesday to hold a Levee.
The annual visit of the boys of the Royal Military School
to the Surrey Zoological Gardens will take place on Thurs-
day next, the 10th instant, when they will march to the gar-

under similar circumstances, which was held legal and proper
by the Lord Chief Justice and other Judges at that time.
Mr. HALLS interrupted him, and declared that he could not
suffer any person to be thus calumniated in his presence. He
must insist upon the defendant discontinuing this conduct.
In this opinion he was seconded by Mr. MINSIIVLL, when
a scene of confusion took place which it would be impossible
to describe, and in which both defendants, Mr. ADOLPHUS, and
the Magistrates joined, each endeavouring to put down th
arguments of the other.
Silence was at length obtained, when, at the request of the
defendants, the witness was recalled, and the cross-examina-
tion continued.
Nothing material was, however, elicited; and Miss A. M.
Green, the sister of the complainant, was called, who corrobo-
rated her testimony in every respect. She further deposed to
the defendants having abused Mrs. Thornton in a gross
manner.—This witness also underwent a cross-examination by
the defendants, who were unable to shake her evidence.
The defendants were then ordered to enter into their own
recognizances in the sum of 1001. each, and to find two sure-
ties in 501. each, for their appearance at the Sessions.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, JULY 5.

(Sittings at Guildhall, before Lord Chief Justice TINDAL and
a Common Jury.)
FURIOUS DRIVINO.—JOHNSON V. WILSON.

This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a poor widow,
living in the neighbourhood of Bethnal-green, to recover
damages from the defendant, the wealthy proprietor of two
houses in the wine and spirit trade in Drury-lane, and of a
country house at Maida-hill, for alleged negligence on the
part of his servant while driving him in a cab.
After the examination of witnesses the Learned Judge
summed up, and told the Jury that a master was liable for the
negligence of his servant.
The Jury being unable to agree in the box, they, at six
o'clock, retired, and, after an absence of four hours and a
half, being unable to agree in their verdict, were suffered to
depart at a quarter before eleven, on an understanding that
they were to attend at half-past nine on Monday morning.

BRUSSELS PAPERS.

BRUSSELS, JULY 3.—The Minister of Commerce of Paris
announces that the negociations for a treaty of commerce with
Belgium have made great progress. It is said that the Minis-
ter of War, on the report of the army physicians, has recom-
mended all the commanders of corps to leave off this season
the use of potatoes, both old and new, as injurious to the health
of the soldiers, andto use rice instead.
The troubles in Croatia, of which the Journal de Francfort
of the 29th made mention (as we stated yesterday), are no
other than those created by the Bosnians inhabiting Turkish
Croatia, and their attack on the fortress of Czolleri, on the
Austrian territory, in the night of the 10th of June, as related
in the Agram Gazette of the 17th of June, which was received
some days ago.
BRUSSELS, JUNE 4.—The New vote of credit asked of the
Chambers by the Minister of War, is for five millions. Last
night a great crowd collected before the residence of Abbi
Helson, the corridores of which were broken. The gendarmes,
the troops of the line, and the police, repaired to the spot and
dispersed the crowd. Picquets were stationed in the vicinity
during the whole night, and two sentinels placed at the door
of the house.
The Chamber of Representatives has closed the general
debate on the Property Law relative to the duties on linen, and
commenced that on the several articles.

Lady Charlotte Bury's new production of " The
Disinherited" possesses the charm of great originality of plot
and vivid portraiture of character. Sir Robert Leslie, the
parvenu, and the travelled exquisite, his son, young Montagu ;
the Disinherited, and the unprincipled peer, his father ; Hono-
ria Leslie, and her heartless sister—are dramatic creations of
a fine order. The startling events, moreover, which occur in
the old mansion at the Wolds render it difficult for the reader
to lay down the book. This work will rank, in our estima-
tion, with the best novels that have lately.appeared.-Ilforning
Chronicle.

SINGULAR CIRCUMSTANCE.—Last week, as the
widow of Sir George Duckett, formerly a banker, and &bank-
rupt, who died some time back, while looking over her deceased
husband's papers,. found a receipt for East India stock to the
amount of 3,000/., upon which the dividends had been un-
claimed for 80 years, and which was, of course, the property
of Sir George. This she handed to the assignees of the estate,
who arc thereby enabled to obtain upwards of 30,000/. towards
a further dividend. Had this sum, with its accumulating divi-
dends, been put out at compound interest, it would have paid
more than 20s. in the pound on the estate of the bankrupt.
Sir George's private estate had already paid 20s. in the pound

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.--(THIS DAY.

(Sittings at Guildhall, before Lord DENMAN and a Special
Jury.)
BROWNE V. TAYLEVRE.

This was an action brought against the underwriters to re-
cover the amount of insurance on a policy on the ship Penrith,
lost on her voyage from Cockaigne, in New Brunswick, to
Liverpool. An action had been brought last year to recover
damages on another policy on the same ship. The vessel in
question was built at Cockaigne, by a person of the name of
Long, and when launched she suffered an accident which
caused her to lie twelve months embedded in the sand, there
being a strain in consequence on a part of the vessel, so that
she became logged. At the expiration of the twelve months
she was with much difficulty got out of the sand, and launched.
She was then registered, and this policy effected, and she set
sail with a cargo of timber. When off Newfoundland, after a
gale, she was in distress, and it was found necessary to aban-
don her to save the lives of the crew. This action was brought
for a total loss. The plaintiff offered proof that the vessel was
perfectly seaworthy when she left Cockaigne. The defend-
ant's case was, in the first instance, that the circumstance of
the accident ought to have been communicated by the owner,
at Cockaigne, to his agents, the plaintiffs, so as to have enabled
them to have communicated it to the underwriters. Secondly,
that there was an important deviation so as to invalidate the
policy, as she was insured from her loading port, Cockaigne,
but she afterwards proceeded to another port to take in part
of her cargo.—( This point was reserved.)--Thirdly, that she
was not seaworthy when she left Cockaigne.
Lord DENMAN having summed up, the jury returned a ver-
dict for the plaintiff.

LONDON,
MONDAY EVENING, JULY 7, 1834

The result of the Quarter's Revenue is highly gra-
tifying, showing an increase of 350,9521., while the
average on the year amounts to 390,2361. It willbe seen
by reference to the table published in anotherpart of The
Sun, that the principal increase is in the Customs, which
is accounted for by the fact that the tea duties have been
this quarter transferred from the Excise to that de-
partment. When the reduction consequent on the
repeal of several taxes is taken into consideration,
the improvement in the revenue is the more satis-
factory, as exhibiting the unimpaired energies of the
country. We feel assured that when Government
have leisure to examine more closely into the operation
of several taxes that now press unequally on the
people, they will afford still further relief, without at
all affecting the produce of the revenue. Indeed, the
more taxation is modified to the capability of those
who have to pay, the more will the people prosper,
and the national resources multiply.

The ratifications of the treaty have arrived from
Portugal. Don PEDRo's health was not very good
when the messenger left, and he had gone to Akaides
for its benefit.

The Due de BROGLIE is coining to England on a
visit to the LORD CHANCELLOR. M. DUPIN was
so much delighted with his intercourse with the Eng-
lish people, that the Due de BROGLIE is anxious to
have a similar opportunity of being better acquainted
with them.

CALOMARDE, Ex-minister of Spain, under whom
the murder of Tonauos, our countryman BOYD,
and their comrades in arms was perpetrated by
MortENo, and who failed in a perfidious plot of en-
trapping the dying and unconscious FERDINAND
into a disinheritance of his daughter, has, like others
of his tyrannical character and principles, been com-
pelled to seek for protection under those free institu-
tions which he has spent his life in calumniating, sub-
verting, awl persecuting. He is at Paris. It is re-
ported, tliat since the arrival of Don CARLOS in
England, lie has been busy in organizing an intrigue,
by whi‘zh he hopes to place that pretender on the throne
of Spain, and they say he is about to proceed to the Py-
rem:es to direct conspiracies and prepare invasions against
his native country. But assuredly the French Govern-
ment will not permit any such machinations. It is
right to afford refuge to misfortune, but

alone, the property was given to the church, and is now
laufidly received by the clergy, so long as they act as true
ministers, viz., the honest, intelligent, and faithful servants
of the church. Whatever Mr. Stanley may think, we
know well what the nation thinks ; and that is, that the
unfaithful steward is the dishonest man, and not the master
who takes care that his interests are attended to. The
House of Commons could not, if they would, allow the
nation to be cheated. The property of the church must
be honestly applied to the purposes for which it was ori-
ginally granted :—to build and keep in repair places of wor-
ship,—to help the afflicted,—to instruct the ignorant,—
these are purposes strictly charitable and religious ; but to
enrich and ennoble individuals who have forgotten that all
public property is held in trust, and who have failed, there-
fore, to perform the duties for which they are employed
and paid, is neither charitable or religious. It is posi-
tively dishonest, and those who countenance such proceed-
ings, are the real "thimble-rigs" and the " shop-lifters:—

W OR SHIP- STREET.

A man named John Lucas, and young woman whom he
stated to be his wife, were charged, the former with having
robbed his employers, Messrs. Kent and Co., general mer-
chants, Falcon-street, Falcon-square, City, and the latter
with receiving the stolen property. It appeared that the
male prisoner had been in the employ of the prosecutors
about five years as warehouseman, and that it was sus-
pected he had stolen property to the amount of 800/. The
female prisoner frequently visited him at the warehouse,
and Lucas gave out that he was married to her, his first
wife having died. On Friday last the male prisoner offered
a quantity of haircloth to a broker named Vann, who, sus-
pecting that he had obtained possession of it improperly,
caused him to be apprehended ; a quantity of haircloth,
wash leather, hairbrushes, &c., was found at his house.
Mr. Vickers, a hairdresser in Old-street, produced a
quantity of combs and hairbrushes which he had purchased
of the prisoner.
The prisoner was remanded, that further evidence might
be procured. The first wife of the prisoner was present.

BLA.CKW 0 OD' S MAGAZINE.

We by no means regret to see that the "Essays on
Burke" are brought to a close ; not because they
show any falling off of style, or clumsiness in point
of handling, but because the theme, even with the
most dexterous management, is a hacknied one ; and
more especially because no one can adopt it, without
adopting also the French revolution, than which it is
impossible to conceive any subject less susceptible of
novelty or interest. We have always thought that the
most distressing consequences of this revolution, have
been the inordinate number of Tory pens it has been
the means of putting into requisition for the last thirty
years and upwards. If it caused much blood-shed, it
has caused, alas I much more ink-shed. However,
the subject is now dead and buried, never, we hope, to
be unearthed. " Fragments from the History of John
Bull" are in the allegorical manner of Arbuthnot.
They are clever, and even humorous, but wholly desti-
tute of the sprightly, familiar, engaging archness of
their prototype. It is as difficult to copy the quiet
satire of Arbuthnot, as the unconscious simplicity of
Goldsmith. Each, in his peculiar vein, is irresistible.
The is nothing like " Sister Peg" in these Frag-
ments," the character of " Buckram" is not
unamusingly hit off. In the "Cruise .of the Midge,".

MARYLEBONE.

J. Snelling, an industrious man, living in the vicinity of
a penny theatre, called the Pavilion, in Little Church-
street, Lisson-grove, was charged with having, in company
with his wife, created a disturbance at the door of the thea-
tre, and assaulted the policeman who interfered.
The defendant said, with tears in his eyes, that the thea-
tre had been the ruin of his son, a lad of twelve years of
age. His object in going to the theatre was to bring away
his son from scenes which must destroy his morals.

Mr. SHUTT discharged the defendant, and directed the
attention of an inspector to the theatre in question.

Q UEEN-SQUARE.
DEFEAT OF INFORMERS.—Edward Richardson, land-
lord of the Feathers public-house, at Kensington Gravel-
pits, was summoned by Byers, for serving during the hours
of divine service.

• The informer's witness swore that he went into defen-
dant's house on Sunday, the 17th inst., at a quarter to five
o'clock in the afternoon, and found several persons drinking
therein. He afterwards went to the parish church ; the
service was then going on.
The parish beadle having stated that on the day in ques-
tion the church service was over at a quarter to five, the
Magistrates instantly dismissed the information.
William Dorrell, proprietor of the Beaumont Arms,
Shepher's Bush, also appeared to an information for a simi-
lar offence.

Edward Sweet, the witness for Byers, stated his case ;
but several persons came forward, and so positively said
that the house was not open at the time sworn to by the
informer, that the Magistrates dismissed this also.
Ann Jones and Harriet Ilixon were charged by Donald
!M‘Kechnie, a sergeant of the Scotch Fusileer Guards, with
robbing him of twelve sovereigns.
The prosecutor, it appeared, had received twenty-two
sovereigns to purchase a soldier's discharge ;.but having met
the prisoners when the worse for liquor, he accompanied
them to Westminster, He shortly afterwards missed 12
sovereigns, and gave information to the police, who secured
the girls, and upon Jones ten sovereigns were found.
The MAGISTRATES, however, did not think that there
was sufficient evidence to convict the prisoners, and upon
their giving up the money they were discharged.

TRADES' UNIONISTS.—Joseph George, a journeyman to
Messrs. Curtis and Sons, builders, at Stratford, applied for
a warrant against a person, who he stated had most vio-
lently assaulted him.
It appeared that the men in Mr. Curtis's employment
had turned out, but the applicant having refused to leave
his work, one of the Unionists waylaid and severely ill-
treated him. The warrant was at once granted.
J. Deaconhurst, conductor of a Blackwall omnibus, was
charged with assaulting Maurice Thomas, Esq., the Tower
Coroner. The complainant was induced to go by the
Defendant's omnibus upon the assurance that no stoppages
would be made on the road. Several did take place, and
at last Mr. Thomas determined upon getting out, but the
conductor held the door so fast as to prevent his leaving
the omnibus for some time. This was the assault com-
plained of.
The defendant appeared sorry for what he had done, and
was let off by paying the costs.

direct advantages of this would be great. Its indirect
advantages would be still greater. The spirit of the
British people which such an effort would imply would
at once dissolve the alliance between Mr. O'Connell
and a place-loving Administration. To the Ministers
it would communicate alarm—to the demagogue it
would inspire moderation.—Morning Post.

UNION-HALL.

A woman named Lee was charged with being a common
utterer of counterfeit coin. The prisoner, who has been in
custody before for a similar offence, was apprehended for
offering a counterfeit shilling at a chandler's shop in Ber-
mondsey. A child, whom she had left waiting in the street,
on being searched, was found in possession of eleven base
shillings.
Mr. Powell, the Mint solicitor, prosecuted the prisoner's
husband for a similar offence at the Lancaster assizes. The
Prisoner, on the trial, endeavoured to call forth the sym-
pathy of Lord Lyndhurst, the Judge, in his behalf, by pro-
ducing his masonic certificates, and making a sign to the
Bench that he was not an impostor. His Lordship, how-
ever, said that the prisoner's being a free and accepted
Mason should have no weight in his favour, for the very cir-
cumstance of his being so endowed rather aggravated than
otherwise the nature of his offence.—Remanded.

The Journal des Connaisances Usuelles says, that
sugar is a complete antidote for poisons obtained from the
oxydes of copper and lead.
LIGHT AND AIRY.—Air-tight bustles, filled with
wind have recently been introduced as substitutes for the heavy
pads formerly worn by the fair sex ; they have the double
advantage of being used as air cushions, where hard seats are
inconvenient.
