HOUSE OF LORDS, AUGUST 15.

Mr. BERNAL and other• brought up the Package and
Scavage (London) Bill, the Slave Trade Prevention Bill,
and returned the (-4441cata' and Aloraviane Affirmation
Bill ,‘ ithout amendo.ent. _ _

On the Eta GOSFORD ;roving the third reading of
the S pa►atirts' Affirmation Bill.
The nisi) p of HEREFORD said it was very incon-
venient that the Bill should then be read x third time;
for, no notice having been given, he Was totally unprepared
to argue the subject.
On the suggestion of Lott! WYNFORD, Monday next
was fixed ior the third reading.

On the motion of the Marquis of WESTMEATH,
the Irish Infirmaries Bill was resit a third time and passed.
Lind TEYNHAM pre.ented a petition from St. Swint-
ford, in the county of Mayo, in favour of the Grand Jury
(Ireland) Bill.
London, England, 1833-08-16

that Gentleman ever dreamed of—that he never sought
for it, or knew any thing of it, until he was presented to it.
—(Hear, hear.) The Hon. Member's prophecy, therefore,
in this instance, as in many other, was contradicted by facts
Mr. HUME corroborated the Right Hon Gentleman's
statement

After some observations from Mr. PRYME the discussion
dropped.

Mr. HUME, in reference to the discussion on Mr. Furni.
val's petitition on Monday night, in which it had been stated
that secret whipping was practised in Horsemonger-lane gaol,
begged to say that that gaol was under the di ection of the vi-
siting Magistrates, and that he, as one of them, was enabled to
state that no such thing as secret whipping was practised there.
Mr. WILKS rose for the purpose of putting a question to the
Noble Lord opposite, on a subject on which he felt intensely
interested. A Bill had been introduced by the Secretary to the
Treasury,on the subject of the beer laws, which would operate
with great hardship on no less than 50,000 licensed victuallers
and upwards 0130,000 other persons who in various parts of
the country had embarked their capital and established them-
selves in the sale of beer; and as it would be impossible at this
late period of the session, with those whose interests were
deeply affected by the measure, he hoped the Noble Lord and
Government would see the propriety of not pressing it forward
till next session. If they did not accede to its postponement
he (Mr. Wilks) could not call the conduct of Government
otherwise than indicative of the utmost harshness and im.
propriety.

Mr S. RICE said the measure would not in any way affect
or disturb the licensed victuallers; and expressed a hope,
that as the suhject was appointed for consideration on Mon.
day, the House would not now take up its time in needlessly
discussing it.—(Hear, hear.)
London, England, 1833-08-16

DUELLING IN FRANCE.

A case of much interest lately came on to be tried at
the atooz,s of toe Seine, in winch a ch irge of murder
committed in a du, I was m C 'arks Leon, a
natural sun of ihe Emperor N tpol on. The trial uxcitrd
24 great sensation, arid caused a v•ist number of spectators
to be present, amonot whom was a consi Irrable propor.
tion of latit,s. The circumstances of the case were as
follows :

M. Leon dined on the last day of December, in the year
1831, with M. de Rosambert, and met another guest,
Captain de Hes-e, a Errglis% officer. After 4inner play
was introduced, and M. Leon. always unlucky, was again
so unfortunate as to lo•e 18,000 francs. Wroat called on
to pay he contended that Al. de Hesse had pledged him-
self to give his antagonist a revanche, which was only con-
sistent with the laws of honour applicable to the game.
An riflery discussion arose, and M. de He-se published
some particulars of the affair, which were prejudicial t,
Leon. The difference between them at lrst amounted to
such a height that a meeting became inevitable, and on
the 24th of February, 1832, the hostile proceeding took
place. The result was, that M. de Hesse was mortally
w,unded, and died three days afterwards. On the ground
M. de Hesse admitted the bravery and strict honour of
his antagonist, nevertheless his wife was determined to
prosecute. Accordingly, the seconds were summoned, of
whom only General Gourgatul and M. May ap?eared. It
was reported that the heirs of M. de Hesse were parties
to the proceeding, but this report appears to be altogether
destitute of foundation.

The well. known General Gourgaud, in his examination,
stated that he was a military officer, 47 years of ttge, and
then proceeded to give his evidence to the following
effect :—I am not able to give any details respecting the
circumstances which have given rise to this affair, for I
am wholly ignorant of them. My friend, M. Monneval,
commissioned by the Emperor Napoleon to superintend
the conduct of M. Leon, who was indisposed at the time,
requested rue to act for him in this very serious matter.
I undertook the duty with regret, for I was well aware of
the ties which bound M. Leon to the Emperor, and I was
conscious of all that hi. M ijesty had communicated to me
on this subject at St. Helena, It was with me a sacred
obligation, imposed by gratitude (and here the witness
expressed much emotion), not to abandon him at such a
moment.

M. Dupin, for the prisoner, made a defence, in which
he endeavoured to show that his conduct was justified.
After some abort deliberation, the jury found M. Leon
not guilty, and the court immediately acquitted him.

THE FUNDS.

According to all appearances the negotiations pending with
Holland have received some check, and it is supposed that the
interference of the Russian Cabinet has been the cause. Should
this impediment last long with the interruption of the commerce
of the Scheldt, we have no doubt that France and England will
be forced to capture Flushing.
Consols opened this morning at the price they lett off on
Saturday, 87 % •;y for the account.

HALF-PAST ONE.

Since the early part of the day, the Funds have become
rather heavy, owing to its being known that Mr. O'Connell
was going oft' for Ireland ; and it is greatly feared that his
presence there will cause much agitation before Earl Grey's
Bill passes into a law.
The procrastinated negotiations with his Dutch Majesty
hang heavy on the market, and it is the general opinion that if
these negotiations do not terminate soon, France and England
will force the mouth of the Scheldt.

Consols, which were 87N for the Account, have receded to
87% li •

All Securities in the Foreign Market are also heavy It is
stated, although the Dutch mails have not arrived, that the
Dutch Funds come much the same as by the last accounts.
The accounts from Mexico of the produce of the mines are
favourable.

QUEEN-SQUARE.

On Saturday morning the office was crowded by
parish constables and others, residing in St. John's,
Westminster, to hear the decision of the Magi-
strates in a case respecting the allowance of reaso►+-
able expenses to Mr. Farren, while serving the
office of parish constable. The circumstances
of the case, it would appear, are as follow :
During the three months Mr. Farren was in office
he kept an account of all sums expended by him in
the execution of his duty ; and, in conformity with
the Ifth George 111., cap. 19, sec. 4, he tendered
to the overseers of the parish the same, with a re-
quest that they would" lay his account before the
inhabitants within fourteen days, arid if the majority
of them should approve of the said account, that
they (the overseers) would hand over to him such
sum or sums of money as should appear due out of
the poor-rates of the parish." This being the first
application to the parish authorities, they were at a
loss how to act. They overseers asserted they had
no authority, and referred Mr. Farren to the church-
wardens, who sent. him back to the overseers. Find-
ing that he was not likely to obtain his object, Mr.
Farren attended at this office, and applied for the
assistance of the Magistrates, who, the applicant
stated, were empowered, under the above-named
Act, to examine the same accounts upon the refusal
of the parish authorities to do so, and settle the
sum which to them should appear to be due, and
order the same to be paid out of the poor-rates. The
application was as novel to the Magistrates as it
appeared to have been to the overseers and church.
wardens and they took time to consider the case before
they adjudicated. Saturday being appointed for the
Magistrates decision, the parties were in attendance.
Mr. GREGORIE stated, that in his view of the law
the case did not come under the jurisdiction of the
Magistrates until the vestry had examined and re-
fused to allow the constable's expenses.
The applicant replied, that if the parochial autho-
rities would not lay his accounts before the vestry,
then, he contended, his case came under the juris-
diction of the Bench.

Mr. Rogers, the parish solicitor, had no doubt the
accounts would be kid before the vestry.
Mr. Arber, the overseer, believed the accotnrct
would not be presented to the vestry.
Mr, WHITE remarked that, in such case, the pa-

PREROGATIVE COURT, FEB. 16.

SPRATT V. HARRIS.
The testator in this was Mr. Alexander Hennah
Spratt, who died on the 30th of Aped last, at
Soissons, in France, leaving a widow and six legiti-
mate children. In 1821,he formed a criminal con-
nect ion with a person named Sarah Harris, by whom
he had three children. He was accustomed to
travel in different parts of Europe. At Soissons he
cohabited with Sarah Harris, and when in England
he resided with his wife and family. In 182.5 be
ail, 1832 (ten days

which he left -2,0001. to Sarah Harris and the

considered a foreign will, or whether the widow
was not entitled to take probate of this as well as
of the other instrument.

Sir J. NICHOLL said that, though there might be
some degree of hardship on the woman with whom

OLD BAILEY.-(THIS DAY.)

The Court was occupied the whole of the morning with the
trial of Coney and Smith, for the extensive burglary at Bart-
lett's-building's, the particulars of which so Rally appeared in
the papers last week on their being examined at the Mansion_
house.

The trial was not over whets our reporter left, and wag likely
to occupy the greater part of the day.

Lord KINNAIRD, the seconder of the ad-
dress in the House of Lords, is laid up at Melton Mow-
bray with a broken collar .bone, occasioned by a fall from
his horse.

Some surprise has been expressed at the re-
moval of the sciffolding from the pillar at the South en-
trance of Carlton-place, without the statue of the late
Duke of YORK, for which it is designed as a pedestal,
having been first placed on the summit. For this various
reasons have been assigned ; among others, that the scaf-
folding was t,;o weak to hear the weight of elevating the
statue, which is to be of bronzed met d ; the true one,
however, we are informed, is that the statue is not yet
cast, and that it will be two years before it is in a state
to assume its intended position.
THE INVISIBLE GENTLEMAN, BY THE
AUTHOR OF CHARTLEY, THE FATALIST.-" We aye fain
to confess," s ays a reviewer, " that this altogether impos-
sible story has carried us along with greater interest than
any other narrative, however possible and probable, that
we have lately read. Some of the scenes are ludicrous
in the extreme, hut, though verging on pantomime, are
kept with great judgment on the right side of the line.
None but a person of genius could achieve this work, anti
such the author of The Invisible Gentleman' decidedly i-.'
THE LATE LOltD EXMOUTH.—The re-
mains of this lamented Nobleman were deposited in a
vault in the parish church of Christow, near Chudleigh.
The flags at Teignmouth on hoard the ships, and on all
the flag staffs, were struck halt-mast; the shops were closed,
and every demonstration made that was possible. The
British ensign was used in lieu of a pall, and on the coffin
was placed the flag (.hlue at the main) which flew at the
mast-head of Or, Queen Charlotte during the arduous
conflict at Algiers ; the swim! his Lordship wore on that
occasion, hong with crape, was also placed on the coffin.
At the conclusion of the funeral service a young oak tree
was planted, and named the Exmouth oak, opposite the
door of the vault.

MEMOIRS OF CAPTAIN SIR WILLIAM
HosTE, BART., R.N.—" Captain FIosTE was a seam in
of the Nelson school ; indeed, he served under the com-
mand of that distinguished Englishman on heard of the
4,11 Agamemnon," and was a favourite of NELSON.
HOSTE was engaged in many perilous exploits, was a dash-
ing fellovv—' every inch a sailor,' and the present work,
from the pen of Lady HARRIET HOSTE, deserves a place
alongside' of SOUTHEY'S Life of Nelson.' Fhese Me-
moirs are highly interesting, and, in a national paint of
view, important; for the example of our departed naval
heroes should be rendered as prominent as possible for the
emulation of future aspirants."-- Weekly Dispatch.

G UILDHALL.

Saturday a middle-aged woman, named Ann Car-
ney, was brought before Mr. Alderman ATKINS,
charged with attempting to grievously wound or
kill her husband, Joseph Carney, a drover, on
Friday last.
The husband stated that she absented herself from
home eight days and nights a short time since,
leaving him to take care of three children, one of
them not yet weaned. As he believed she had
been unfaithful to him, they had not been reconciled
since this affair, and when she sent him an invitation
to come and take tea with her, he sent a message
that he did not want either her or her tea. On
Friday Wit., while he was attending his business in
Smithfield, she rushed upon him with a knife, and
stabbed him just above the temple.
The husband praying for time to produce a wit-
ness who had gone into Surrey, the prisoner, whose
angry feelings did not seem. at all abated, was re-
manded for further examination.

tion of the Bill now in contemplation against Ireland.
The petitioners beheld with the deepest pain of mind the
threatened destruction of the lives and property of their
fellow subjects in Ireland ; they had entertained hopes
that the reign of terror was over ; that there would be no
more Insurrection Acts, suspensions of the Habeas Corpus,
and similar obnoxious measures, which had been put into
effect by former tyrannical Ministries, but which, it had
been hoped, would never have been thought of more in the
present times. However, since the Ministry, contrary to
expectation, had adopted such a course, it was quite time
to put a stop to these coercive measures. They were at
present directed against Ireland, but it would be impossi-
ble to say how soon they might be adopted in England it
this measure were allowed to pass.—(Hear, hear.).—

of some parish in Somerset, praying for various alterations
in the Church, among others, that there should he fifty-
two Bishups, one for each county ; but none of them to

that they should be well advised in the words of Bishop
Latimer, " not to be Prelates lording it over the land,
nor meddling and making, but to preach and to teach,
and let the plough he doing.".—The petition was ordered
to be laid on the table.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, FEB. ":164:-:1

GILBERT v. SMALL AND oTIIERs.
This was an action by the plaintiff, for work and
labour done for the defendants, the represe9tarives
of the Birmingham British Iron Company, to fur.
nish evidence in the cause of " Small V. Attwood,"
tried lately in the Exchequer.
The SOLICITOR•GENERAL called witnesses to
prove the plaintiff's case, but
The Lord CHIEF JUSTICR considering that the
evidence did not make out his claim, as stated in the
declaration, the plaintiff was nonsuited.
London, England, 1833-02-27

An 'fox. MEMBER. said that he agreed with the Hon

Member for Middlesex, that the outcry against master-
manufacturers was unjust; and he besides considered that
it tended to prejudice the public mind against them.
While be made this avowal, he begged also to say that he
did not agree with the Hon. Member for Middlesex in at-
tributing the distress of manufacturers to any foreign com-
petition. The masters of cotton factories had little or no
competition with France. The competition lay at home,
between the towns of Lancashire and Glasgow, and other
neighbouring Scotch towns. Let this competition be
checked by an Act of Parliament limiting the hours of
labour in factories. This was the only way to put a stop
to the severity of masters towards children.
Mr. ATTWOOD said, that were it not for the decep-
tion agriculturists laboured under, nobody could be found
friendly to the corn laws. Every one but they must see
the necessity of their repeal ; and if they bad been repealed,
not only the grievances now attributed to them, but all
the great evils of the country would have been remedied
before now. They were the cause of the rise in money ;
and to the rise in money was to be attributed the fall in
the value of land and in the price of labour. With respect
to what fell from the Hon. Member for Wolverhampton,
he could vouch that that Hon. Gentleman was by no
ratans interested in the remarks he had just made to the
House. That Hon. Gentleman was a strong opponent of
severity and cruelty, but still he was right in saying, that
stern necessity obliged the masters of factories to have re-
course to Imre treatment, and to grind down poor ebil.

Orleans will leave Brussels at eight o'clock this evening, to
return to Pa, is.
Yesterday evening the Minister of War despatched a

The Moniteur enters into the following detail re-
specting the number of foreign officers in our army :
One hundred and forty. eight officers have been sue-
cessively admitted into the Belgian army ; of this number
114 are French, 34 Poles or Germans.
The French officers, authorized by their Government
to engage in the service of Belgium, are to remain there
only till the peace, at which time they will re-enter the
French army.
The number of officers in the Belgian army is at pre-
sent 2,407, besides 578 officers of the Civic Guards that
have been called out. There are 2,259 officers, Belgians
born, or naturalized, including the officers of volunteers
who have served ever since the beginning of the revo-
lution, and have a rank in the army. The following
table shows the exact number of Belgian and foreign
officers now in active service in the Belgian army :

NORTHAMPTON RACES.

The races commenced yesterday with rather an indiffe-
rent show of horses. There were but few good race.,
owing principally to the parched state of the course. The
ground was almost dangerous; but only one accident oc-
curred, which was Mr. Scott's hr. g. that broke the fet-
lock joint ; all the rest, considering the state of the course,
came off tolerably well. The attendance of fasbionables
was numerous, and the day was beautifully fine.

Shields denied the charge. He was apprehended
solely on account of his former character; but he
was now reformed, arid had entirely given up busi-
ness. He was getting infirm, and hoped that the
Bench would be metciful to him. He was but just
looking on in a quiet manner at the Horse Guards,
and had no thoughts of p'cking any person's pocket.
Mr. WHITE reminded him that it was proved his
hand was found in a gentleman's pocket.
Shields said that it was not correct : if it was so,
his hand must have dropped in entirely by accident;
besides, he had entirely given up business.
Mr. WHITE inquired whether there was any per-
son in the office knew the prisoner to he a thief.
Here a general movement took place, and officers
and policemen stepped forward to give evidence.
Woodherry, one of the officers of ►he establish-
ment, stated that he knew the prisoner to be a
noted pickpocket. About thirty years ago he had
him in custody.
• Mr. WHITE said it was his duty to commit him
for three months to the House of Correction, and to
be kept to hard labour:
Shields-7-I hope your 'Worship will allow me to
be bailed.

Mr. WHlTE—Certainly not; if you went out on
bail you would be at your old tricks again before
the end of the week.
Shields was then remanded.

The following anecdote of Tit Shields may be
relied on :—A few years ago Salmon, the Bow-
street officer, used to go annually to Reading fair, to
point out to the local authorities at that place any
London thieves he might find prowling about. One
morning Salmon espied Tit Shields, who no sooner
perceived that he was observed but he endeavoured
to sneak away. Salmon called after him, and
threatened that if he did not leave the town he
would take him before the Magistrates. Shields
begged fOr mercy, and swore solemnly he would
leave the town that moment. Tit went away, but
in a few minutes returned, and pulled Salmon by the
sleeve. " I say, master," ejaculated Tit, " so-help
me God I have not got a wag about me; do let me
stay in the fair until I have just got enough to pay
my expenses ; that is all I want ; and may I die on
the spot as soon as I have done that I will be off
directly for London." Salmon could not help
laughing at the request, and, porting his hand in his
pocket, generously gave him half-a-crown, and told
him to be off instantly. Shields pocketed the money
and disappeared.

DUTCH PAPERS.

THE HAGUE, AUG. 25.—Yesterday the sixty-first an-
niversary of the birth-day of our revered sovereign, was
observed here with the usual festivities. The churches
are crowded with the inhabitants to implore the blessings
of Heaven on the beloved and honoured Prince, and to
unite their wishes for his happiness and welfare, with
those which, on this occasion, were put up to the Almighty
in all parts of the kingdom.
_ _

The Prince Field-marshal left the head-quarters on the
20th, and went to Goetadyk, whence he was to go
with his family to the Loo to keep the King's birth-day.
The day before yesterday there was a violent thunder
storm in our neighbourhood, in which the church of
Voorburg was struck by lightning, but without doing
much damage.
On the celebration of the King's birtb-day at the Helder,
there was a review of the land and naval force at that
place, when the efficers and privates who took part in the
defence of the citadel of Antwerp and the banks of the
Scheldt, received the medals decreed to them for their
conduct.

THE HAGUE, Auc. 27.—An order of the day, pub-

A PREVENTIVE TO CHOLERA MORBUS.

This renovating Medicine also affurds wonderful relief
in all inward decays, lowness of spirits, relaxation in
either sex, whether hereditary or owing to youthful im-
prudencies. In seminal weaknesses, tabes dorsally, or ner-
vous consumptions, its merit is unrivalled, invigorating
the decayed juices, and throwing a genial warmth upon
the debilitated and relaxed pirts that stand in need of
assistance.

Also, the celebrated ANTI-INIPETIGINES, or SO-
LOMON'S DROPS (without Mercury or any deleterious
preparation), which stand in the highest estimation for
the cure of the Scurvy, Scrofula, Leprosy, and all disor
ders originating in an impure state of the blood ; being
gradual, gentle, and almost imperceptible in their opera-
tion—the best substitute that has ever been disCOvered fur
that dangerous mineral Mercury, sweetening the blood,
and stimulating it to expel all noxious and impure. juices,
giving strength and tone to the nerves, enlivening and in-
vigorating both body and mind.
