same.

The Magistrate said that the clause was imperative.
The defendant did not deny the guinea had been ad-
vanced to her, but said that she had been a member of the
society for seven years, and she regularly paid up her weekly
money, and only upon this solitary occasion had she ever
received any benefit from it.

The Magistrate said that the majority of those descrip-
tions of societies were calculated to be of a most injurious
tendency to those who enrolled themselves as members. If
the defendant had deposited her money in the Savings
Bank it would have been safe there, and she would have
received interest upon it. At the case, however, now stood
he must adjudge her to refund the money advanced by the
society.
Two other members were also summoned under similar
circumstances, and adjudged to refund the guinea each.
They exclaimed loudly against the decision, and said that
they had been regularly duped out of their weekly pay-
ments by the society.

A CAUTION TO LADIES WHO WRITE

IN CYPHER.

In the autumn of last year—September 12 was
the first day—some advertisements in cypher ap-
peared in the Morning Chronicle ; they were con-
tinued at intervals till the 27th of February in the
present year, at least the one of that date is the last
we have seen. A friend of ours, who is skilful in
decyphering assumed characters, and who thought
at first that some political mystery might be con-
cealed in this strange guise, took the trouble to ex-
amine the cypher minutely, and soon discovered its
key. The advertisements turn out to refer to an
amatory, and not a political intrigue. We will not
be mischievous enough to publish all the letters
from a married lady to a person who is not her hus-
band ; but, as a salutary warning to the writer, we
publish one which is of too general a nature to be-
tray her :
" Monday, Nov. 11, 1833.

" Dearest, kindest, best of men,—l am in raptures with your
kind presents, and were it not for the support your kind letters
give me, and feeling that you do love me, I must certainly sink
under the weight of your kindness; and what oppresses me still
more is, that I shall never be able to deserve, by all that I can
do, the least of your favours. I have no hope but that my future
conduct, a determined duty, will be accepted, and all my imper-
fections forgiven."

MELANCHOLY SHIPWRECK, AND LOSS
London, England, 1834-03-28

OF TWO LIVES.

The brig Adventure, of Ipswich, Lord, master,
bound from Newcastle to Ipswich, sprung a leak,
when the crew laboured hard at the pumps, and af-
ter using their utmost exertions, and being worn out
by fatigue, and finding the water gaining upon them,
they, for the preservation of their lives, hoisted out
their boat, which unfortunately got stove by getting
her over the ship's side, by reason of the tremen-
dously heavy sea and gale of wind, which had conti-
nued from the vessel first springing the leak. They,
therefore, trusted their lives, being seven in number,
in a frail boat, that required to be baled constantly,
under the guidance of Providence, and left their then
sinking vessel at six o'clock on Sunday night last.
In the mean time, two of the crew died from fatigue,
one a lad
about 16, and the other 21, when, to
their infinite joy, they perceived a vessel bearing
down to them, which proved to be the schooner
Glasgow Merchant, John L. Duncan, master, from
Glasgow to Rotterdam, with goods. Captain Dun-
can, on his coming up with them, which was about

'uro o'clock in the afternoon of Monday, found the
remaining five in a most exhausted state, but owing
to the praiseworthy exertions of Captain Duncan
and his crew, by rubbing them with brandy, they
restored them. And we further regret to add, that
the Glasgow Merchant was driven on shore by a
tremendous squall of wind on Caister Ness the same
night, where they were a second time exposed to the
horrors of a shipwreck. The Glasgow Merchant,
we fear, will become a wreck ; and most of her cargo
has been landed in a damaged state.

MIDDLESEX ADJOURNED SESSIONS.

Mr. James Bensana was indicted for assaulting
Henry Tong, on the 15th of January last.
Henry Tong is foreman to Mrs. Watts as under-
taker. On the 15th of January he was sent by his
mistress to the house of the defendant to take the
measure of a corpse, and saw the defendant, who
came out to him in the passage, and on learning his
errand, flew into a passion, and bade him get out of
the house ; and, before he could obey followed the
words with several violent blows.

Mrs. Watts, the mistress of the last witness,
carried on business at Kensington, and, on the day
in question, in consequence of receiving an order to
send a person to measure a female corpse -at the
house of the defendant, she sent Mr. Tong, who
returned in about half an hour with two black eyes,
and the blood running down his face.
Mr. ALLEY, for the defendant, said the gentle-
man at the bar was a respectable retired tradesman,
upon whom some evil-disposed, or at least waggish,
persons had played a hoax on the day in question.
One person came after another to his house, and
beef, mutton, pork, wines, grocery, and many other
things were brought sufficient to furnish a respect-
able tavern ; and at last, by way of finale, came the
undertaker to bury his wife. It was in vain that
he assured the man that his wife was alive and well,
for the man persisted that she must be dead, and
that he had come to measure her for a coffin. This

was too much for the defendant's patience, and he
certainly did, in a moment of excitement, force the
prosecutor out of the house with more violence than
was, perhaps, necessary.
The jury returned a verdict of Guilty, and defen-
dant was sentenced to pay a fine of 51., with leave
to speak to the prosecutor.

LITERATURE.

THE LADY'S SHOPPING MANUAL ! LONDON, 1234

The schoolmaster is now abroad to some
purpose. He no longer confines his walks to
the broad highway of literature, but pops his
head into the most odd, out-of-the-way nooks
and corners. He is in truth a most inquisitive
and übiquitous pedagogue. A few years since
he busied himself with gastronomy in Dr.
Kitchener's kitchen ; more recently he has been
studying at the Old Bailey ; and we now find
him putting the last touches to his education at
a haberdasher's ! The present volume is the
fruit of his most recent meditations on mercery,
and though we should scarcely ever have ex-
pected to meet him behind the counter, over-
hauling silks and satins, with a yard measure
in his hand, a pen behind his ear, and a ledger
open before him, yet it is but justice to say,
that he has turned his time to good account,
and proved himself a most exemplary shop-
man. We wonder whether Lord Brougham
will recognize him in his new capacity.
But, to descend from generals to particulars.
The volume before us is by the author of a
Treatise on—what does the reader suppose ?
Haberdashery ! It is of the Utilitarian school,
and professes to give minute details on the sub-
ject of " tapes, pins, cot-cords, bobbins, bod-
kins, buttons," and such like intellectual mat-
ters. The author is evidently full of his subject.
He is inspired by the soul of Snip. His very
preface is as acute as a needle. On grand occa-
sions, too, he always rises, like Gibbon, to the
dignity of his subject—is pointed on pins—bril-
liant on buttons—copious on corduroys—irresis-
tible on cot-cords---delicately concise on petti-
coats—stiff as whalebone in his theory of stays.
On garters alone, especially those of the female
gender, he preserves a mysterious taciturnity. On
the subject of stockings he institutes a fine, subtle
distinction between those of " maids" and ".slen-
der women ;" while " Love-ribands" he dis-
misses in a sentence, which is a pity, for the
theme is a tempting one, and naturally gives rise
to many tender reflections. Page 27 contains
an expression that has caused us the most cruel
perplexity. The author talks of "an outside
woman 1" What, in the name of heaven, does
he mean by this ? Is the phrase allegorical—or
is it meant to convey an insinuation that a
woman's outside is the only thing worth writing
about ? Oh Snip, where is thy gallantry ? Pages
42 gives us an account of some brilliant Peter-
sham discoveries in the article of apparel, which
makes us envy a certain hereditary legislator,
whose name will be immortal as long as stuffs
and sarsnets shall exist to bear his name. We
have no space for further comments ; suffice to
say, that the book is well got up, and that the
chapter on child-bed linen is one, the very men-
tion of which is enough to frighten a Malthusian
into fits.

SMITH V. DE TESTET.

The questio n in this case was, whether the late
Bankruptcy Act vested the estate of a bankrupt in
a new assignee, without the formality of a deed.
His Lordship was of opinion that it did, and re-
versed the decision of the court below, allowing on
this ground a demurrer to a bill.
His Lordship rose at five o'clock.
London, England, 1834-03-28

Vice-Chancellor had gone, and he therefore affirmed
the decree, directing the account to commence from
1825. His Lordship gave no costs of the appeal
beyond the deposit.

MORGAN V. RHODES.

This was a bill filed by the assignee of a person
named Auckland, to compel Mr. Rhodes to execute
his contract for a lease of six houses at Hoxton,
which lease was to be granted if the houses were
built and covered in within a certain period. The
houses were not finished within the time specified,
but the Vice-Chancellor, when the matter came
before him, dismissed the bill on the ground of Auck-
land having become a bankrupt, and without enter-
ing into the merits of the case.
His LORDSHIP now reversed the decree of tle
court below.

CRABB V. CRABB.

The question in this case was, whether a father
had given 10,0001. three per cents to his son as a
gift, or merely as a transfer, and whether the lan-
guage of the will left room for election.
His LORDSHIP said this was one of those cases
so much involved in doubt, that if the Vice-Chan-
cellor had decided the other way his lordship was
by no means certain he should not have agreed with

him. As it was, he would not disturb the decree of
the court below.

EX PARTE TERRYS.

This was an appeal from a decision of the Court
of Review, reversing a proceeding of this court
with respect to a motion for a new trial, and super-
seding the commission. The matter was argued on
Saturday, when it was contended that the Court of
Review had exceeded its jurisdiction.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said, in this case the
Court of Review had placed itself at variance with
the Court of Chancery, perhaps with the Vice-
Chancellor, certainly with his lordship, on a point
which, in his opinion, justified the interference of
the appellate jurisdiction. He, therefore, reversed
the order of the Court of Review ; but when he
did so, it was not because he did not admit that the
Court of Review had less right than the Court of
Exchequer, in the other courts, to maintain and
assert their opinions, but because the trial which
the Court of Review disposed of in its decision had
been a trial ordered by the Court of Chancery ;
and it was not known whether the court might not
think fit to have further dealings with the case, on
the result of the trial so ordered. The order of the
court below was reversed, and the costs of the as-
signees ordered to be paid out of the estate. All
other costs reversed.

MONTHLY MAGAZINE.

The magazines, as they lie piled upon the table before
us, through every possible shade of blue, green, brown,
and yellow, all As opposite in their tastes as in their
colours, make no indifferent representatives of the va-
rious classes into which society is divided. " Black-
wood" represents the more intellectual part of the
Tories ; the " Old Monthly" appears for the middling
class of liberals, gentlemen by birth and education, but
who find it expedient to dine economically, lest the ex-
travagance of a day should starve the week ; the
United Service Journal," of course, speaks for the
blue and red uniforms ; " La Belle Assemblee" is de-
puted by the ladies, who somehow or another have
contrived to find their way into the literary senate, and
most heartily are the dear creatures welcome, for their
nonsense is worth all the wisdom of the seven sages of
Greece ;' the " Ladies' Magazine," falsely so called,
should be the " Lady's-maids' Magazine ;" and, omitt-
ing half a score others for the sake of brevity, the
" New Monthly" indubitably represents that portion
which, in Cockney language, calls itself the world, and
in the absence of which London is always said to be

empty, even though it may be a work of difficulty to
elbow your way through the crowded streets. Talk,
indeed, of nine tailors making one man 1 why it re-
quires a hundred commoners to make a lord, and ten

THE ANALYST. No. 111. Simpkin and Marshall.

This periodical begins to promise well ; and we
have no doubt will yet find its way into better society
than it has yet had the good fortune to meet with.
The Editor is evidently a person of taste, but he
lacks boldness, humour, and originality, in his Wes.
When we say his tales are not .oriinal; we smak of
them as developing no new views of Shuman nature—
no unmarked traits of individual character. But this
may be remedied and we trust will. The critical no-
tices are very numerous, and very respectably written.

WORSHIP-STREET.

THE NEW POOR LAWS.—Yesterday a respectable-
looking young woman, with a child in her arms, applied to
Mr. GROVE fer his assistance under the following circum-
stances :

The applicant was a native of Birmingham, and she had
travelled to London to see after her husband, who had
worked somewhere in the City-road. She was, she said,
an entire stranger in London ; and on her arrival, which
was only on the night preceding, she ascertained that her
husband had left London, and gone to Manchester. She
had not slept on a bed since she left Birmingham, and she
was in a state of urgent distress.
The MAGISTRATE said that under the new Act he could
not order her relief from any parish. The only advice he
could give her was to make the best of her way to her na-
tive home, and it was very foolish of her to come on such
a wildgoose-chase. The worthy Magistrate gave her a
trifle out of the poor-box, and she left the Office to beg her
way back.

The omission of comma in this list created some argument.
Messrs. Bird and Co., of Mincing-lane, were inserted on
the list as James Edward and George Bird, thus making it
appear that there were but two parties in the firm.
Mr. JAMES BIRD said that three brothers constituted the
firm, James, Edward, and George, and it only required the
insertion of a comma after his own name James. _

Mr. TH-OMPSON accordingly in3erted the required comma of
distinction.

(Before Mr. TAMLYN. )

Joshua Simmons Smith, a Major in the Army, had sent a
claim to the Returning Officer to be inserted in the list of the
Haberdashers' Company, but he had not stated his residence.
The C1.E121( of the Company admitted that the claimant
was a freeman of the city and a liveryman of the Company,
but he was at present travelling on the Continent.
The BEAD' lt swore that he knew thA claimant's residence
to be at No. 15, Bruton-street. _ _

The Returning Officer made no objection to the claim, and
it was admitted.

CORONER'S INQUEST THIS DAY.—)—RE-
PORTED SUICIDE OF MR. LARTER, OF NOTTINGHAM-STREET.—
This morning an inquest was held on Mr. Robert Larter, a
very extensive builder, at his residence, No. 2, Nottingham-
street, Regent's Park. It was currently reported in the neigh-
bourhood that the deceased had poisoned himself in conse-
quence of being a very considerable loser at the late Doncaster
St. Leger. From the evidence of the several witnesses ex-
amined, it appeared that the deceased had remained out later
than usual on Thursday night, and on the following morning
when his foreman called on him to receive orders, he seemed
indisposed ; and on Friday at one not having risen to breakfast,
fears were entertained that he had come by his death, and his
bed room door was burst open, and the unfortunate gentleman
was discovered in his night clothes lying on the bed as if he
had fallen down dead while in the act of rising. Messrs.
M'lntyre and Byam, surgeons, were of opinion that the de-
ceased died from an attack of the gout on the chest, which
complaint he had for sometime laboured under. Verdict—
" Died by the visitation of God."

THE ANNUALS.

From the unusual pressure of literary and other
matters, we are unable to do more than acknowledge
the receipt of the Picturesque, the Landscape, and
the Oriental, Annuals. So far as we can judge from
a hasty glance over the contents of these splendid vo-
lumes—for they are all as richly emblazoned as Gar-
ter King-at-Arms, on a coronation day—they are full
of interesting matters. The embellishments, in parti-
cular, are of a very superior order of excellence.

COURT OF REVIEW.

In the matter of Bentley, Dear, and Co.—Exparte Wilson
and another.—Before his Honour the Chief Justice, who
sat especially for the purpose.—Mr. Montagu for the Pe-
titioner.
The petitioner prayed that the fiat in this case might he
directed to Mr. Commissioner Evans.

The petition and the affidavit of Mr. Ashurst, the soli-
citor, stated that a fiat had issued against Bentley, Dear,
and Co. ; that the ballot had fallen to Mr. Commissioner
Evans ; that he was in town, and ready to proceed ; that
the Registrar declined to allot the said fiat to the said Com-
missioner, conceiving himself restrained by one of the rules
of the 12th of January, 1832, because a separate fiat had
been recently issued against the above-named John Bent-
ley, and that separate fiat had been directed to Mr.
Commissioner Williams ; that petitioner contended that
they were entitled of right to ballot for the said Com-
missioner, and to proceed before Mr. Commissioner
Evans, to whom the same had fallen, and were not re-
strained by the rule of Court ; that Mr. Commissioner
Williams was out of town, and would remain out of town
for some time, as petitioners believed ; that the estate was
considerable, and various important questions likely to arise
for discussion before the choice of assignees took place, and
the petitioners were anxious to have the continuous atten-
tion of one Commissioner through the whole of the proceed-
ings ; and it was, in their opinion, most important to the
interest of the creditors, whose debts amounted in the as
to upwards of 100,0001.
Mr. MONTAGU submitted that the rule which directed
that second and renewed fiats should be sent to the same
Commissioner to whom the fiat had been directed did not
apply in this case, as this was the case of a joint fiat against
Bentley and others, and not a second fiat against Bentley
alone ; but if his Honour should think it did, then, as the
Commissioner to whom it would go was not in town, it was
clear that the creditors were entitled to have the fiat di-
rected to a Commissioner who would prosecute it through
all its stages. It was one of the inconveniences of the old
system that the Commissioners were fluctuating, and the
creditors here were anxious to have the continuous atten-
tion of one Commissioner through all the stages of the fiat.
His HONOUR said that the Registrar had acted rightly
in submitting the question to the Court, and he thought
that the rule had been correctly construed by the 'Regis-
trar, but that, as the Commissioner to whom by the opera-
tion of that rule the fiat would be directed was out of town,
