A DRUNKARD itECLAIMED.—One even-
ing last week, a ventriloquist, who had been performing at
Beverley, was spending the evening with a few friends at
,in inn. A farmer, much in liquor, somewhat intru.
,ive'y joined them, and was so delighted with their com-
pany, that in order to enjoy it, he determined to stop all
night, and accordingly ordered the boot-jack. This was
by no means agreeable to the company, one of whom
whispered to the ventriloquist, that the farmer had but
ju.t buried his wife, and had a large family. The boot.

ME TR OP OLI TAN.

There is too much sameness about this num-
ber—too many tales of passable merit. The only
really sound article is that entitled " A Chapter
on Common Sense," which contains some good
and ingenious thinking. The poetical contribu-
tions are, for the most part, sad stuff. We wonder
what could have induced the editors to insert such
crazy common-place, as the " Jealous Farmer's
Lamentation ?" Among the tales, the liveliest
and most amusing is the " Spanish Barber,"
from the pen of Don Trueba. It is, however,
a close imitation of the lighter style of the early
Spanish novelists, more particularly of Mendoza
and Quevedo. Even from the present, which
is the preliminary or apologetic, chapter,
we foresee that the barber will turn out an
arrant rogue, not unworthy to vie with that
paragon of a tonsor in the (, Arabian
Nights," appropriately nick-riamed " Silence,"
from his inveterate love of talk. " Peter
Simple," is worse this month than usual.
He is beginning to wax prosy, and should
beat a retreat in time. " The South
Seas," is a useful practical article, de-
scriptive of the Sandwich Islands, and
showing to what a valuable commercial ac-

count they might be turned in the hands of
Great Britain. The author observes, that the
well-known Mrs. Boki, who, it may be remem-
bered, accompanied the King and Queen of the
Sandwich Islands to England, where they died
of the mange—we beg pardon, of the measles—
is still to be seen daily staggering along, on the
seashore, in a picturesque state of nudity and dean
drunkenness. Of the remaining articles we
have merely space to say, that the " Recollec-
tions of a Diplomatist," is the best.

ADELPHI THEATRE.

The following address was delivered by Mr. Yates, at this
theatre, on Saturday : . _

" Ladies and Gentlemen,—lt is the misfortune of managers
to be compelled to leave the most difficult part of their duty till
the last. In other cases they say that Ce n'est que le premier
par qui coute ; with us it is the last act of the piece that costs
us the most,—that of bidding farewell. It is, however,
sweetened by the opportunity it affords us of returning our
thanks for that patronage which has pleased our hearts, I humbly
confess, by filling our pockets. We are not among those who
have to complain that our drama wants patronage, and, had we
such a complaint, your appearance would cure it. There is,
Ladies and Gentlemen, a great deal of talk about the legitimate
and illegitimate drama; our dramas are called by the world
illegitimate, and we are willing enough to acknowledge them
the natural children of the brains of our authors, and we trust
that everything is natural about them, although we cannot but
feel that like other illegitimates, they are brought up by hand.
I ought to apologize for thus snaking you nurses of our dramatic
bantlings, but we cannot forget that by your hands both our
dramas and actors have been fostered; to merit a continuation
of that patronage shall be our constant endeavour. In the name
of Mr. Mathews, myself, and the Adelphi company, we respect.
fully bid you farewell."

THE FUNDS.

The Funds are heavy this morning. Consols, which opened
at the same price they left off on Saturday, 87 % % for the
Account, have receded to 87 lig, with little doing as yet. All
Foreign Securities are also lower.
The Tariff Bill has passed in both Houses in America, by
which it is supposed that peace will be established with the
nullifiers.

HALF-PAST ONE.

The funds still continue heavy, on which occasion we have
generally various reports; but the only consistent one is that
respecting the situation of the affairs in the East, which is
looked upon to be in a very entangled state, and of which the
Dutch Government are taking advantage, to procrastinate the
settlement of the Belgian question, until Russia has gained
her point in the adjustment between the Porte and the Pacha
of Egypt, in her favour.
The private letters from Lisbon and Oporto are of the same
description as the accounts already published; but they state
that Don Carlos is going to Italy.

Report states that Sartorius has settled his dispute with Don
Pedro, but this requires confirmation.
Consols were done at 87 % in the early part of the day,
since which they have receded to 87 to %, with little doing.
In the Foreign market all securities are also lower.

HERTFORD ELECTION.-(THIS DAY.)

Mr. JOY having condoned his summing up at four
o'clock, against the return of the Sitting Members, applied
to the Committee to come to its decision this day, when
the Chairman repllied that he was then quite exhausted,
and bad to take the chair at another Committee at five
o'clock. The Committee would, therefore, pronounce its
decision to-morrow.

OLYMPIC THEATRE.

On Saturday evening Madame Vestris prorogued her house
in person, and the following is the speech she delivered on the
occasion :

"My Lords, Ladies, and Gentlemen,—l have come to meet
you for the purpose of proroguing this house.
" I have such well-grounded confidence in a continuance of
the steady attention you have ever given to its business, that
the most pressing necessity alone could induce me to resort to so
extreme a measure.

" I will state to you, in a few words, what that necessity is,--
" My season is ended, and I can't help myself.
" Gentlemen of the pit and galleries—l thank you for the
cheerfulness with which you have furnished the supplies; and
I have the highest satisfaction in informing you that they have
not only been adequate to our current expenses, but that a sur-
plus remains.
" This surplus I have directed to be funded, and it will re-
main applicable to the future exigencies of my management.
" My Lords, Ladies, and Gentlemen,—ln looking back upon
the season which we are about to close, I find many circum-
stances for our mutual congratulation.

" If it be a blessing to have preserved domestic peace, what
must it be to have preserved so many domestic pieces as we have ?
" Our crop has been abundant, almost beyond precedent, and
the harvest has been well housed.

" Order has been maintained, while orders have been ex•

eluded.

" In reverting with pride to the successful results of native
exertions, I am not unmindful of the assistance we have occa-
sionally received from our firm allies—the French authors.
" I am happy to tell you that I continue to receive assurances
of the most friendly description, not only from them but from
all other foreign powers.
" The freedom of the press has been guaranteed, and the con-
sequence has been its cordial support upon all critical occasions.
" During the approaching recess my most anxious endeavours
will be directed to providing for your future comfort and
amusements.
" Should the seats prove rotten, I will reform the whole house
" My efforts will be zealously seconded by all the members of
my mimic administration.
" For them, and for myself, I sincerely and cordially thank
you for all your warm-hearted support; and I have only to add,
that this house stands prorogued until Monday, the 30th day of
September next, then and here to meet for the despatch of
pleasure.

At the Salop Assizes, a Special Jury case was
tried, in which the question turned entirely upon the
identity of a horse valued at 201. The plaintiff obtained
a verdict for that sum. The law charges are expected to
amount to between 500/. and 6001. Mr. Justice
Darn Tort, in addressing the Jury, congratulated the
•ounty of Salop on the extraordinary wealth it possessed,
which permitted it, while other parts of the country were
complaining of destitution and embarrassment, to throw
away vast sums in bringing a host of witnesses to decide
► matter of 20/. The horse was brought into Court, and
underwent a careful examination by the Jury !

FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE.

TAIT'S EDINBURGH MAGAZINE.

We cannot say that, upon the whole, we have
been much gratified by the perusal of the present
number. The principles advocated are, for the
most part, good and sound, but are handled in
too heavy a style, and this fault pervades, we are
sorry to say, even some of the articles which
are professedly intended to be light. As
a running commentary on the report of last
year's committee on the state of Ireland,
the first article is good, and " The Vision of
Sir Robert" is something more than a mere
string of rhyming lines ; but two, or even three
or four tolerable articles, will not raise a maga-
zine in Edinburgh, liberal though it be, to cope
with its powerful rival. Who could have per-
suaded the editor that " Pandrig Dhu" was a
piece of wit ? He may depend upon it, that it
is not so easy to imitate Munchausen as he ima-
gines. This will not do, Mr. Tait.

LEITH V. IRVINE AND OTHERS.

His LORDSHIP gave judgment in this case. The ques-
turns in dispute related to the accounts of an estate in
Tobago, extending over a very long period. On the
cruses being heard, inquiries were directed to he made by
the Master, who had reported the result of the investi-
g ,tion he made. This report was in several respects un-
satisfactory to the parties on either side, and exceptions
were accordingly taken, which amounted in number to up.
wards of 130. They were fist heard before the Master
of the Rolls, and afterwards brought before the Lord Cban-
cellor, by way of appeal. In the discussion of this appeal
25 days had been occupied, and they now stood for judg-
ment. His Lordship then went over the grounds of the
exceptions at great length, elaborately explaining the view
he took of the several items of account, and concluded by
affirming, with or without costs, the decision of the Court
below on almost the whole of the exceptions. Having
disposed of them, he applied himself to the question raised
by the appeal of the defendants—a question of great im-
portance, and, for the first time, brought regularly before
the Court— namely, whether a mortgagee in posses-
sion in a West India estate had a right to charge com-
mission on the sale of the consignments from ' that
estate. The rule ryas, that a mortgagee in pos-
session could not charge for commission, and, inde-
pendent of authorities, and of the necessity of ad.
ministering the law as laid down by former Chancellors,
ois Lordship was not inclined to make any alteration.
The defendant in this case prayed, however, that some
allowance tnieht be made for the additional expense he had
um!. rgnne in the management of the estate, by keeping
aAlitional clerks, and under the circumstances, and con-
-idering that he might have suffered loss from his clerks
being taken away from the discharge of their accustomed
duties to attend to the affairs of the estate, his Lordship
was inclined to order that the expense be fairly apportioned
for the three properties to which the service of the clerks
was applied. The three exceptions of the defendant on
these matters were ther.fore affirmed without costs, and
on the fourth, applying to the compensation for the
clerks, an inquiry was directed.

THE ASIATIC JOURNAL.

True to the cause of its patrons, the Asiatic
Journal has "got up" a hasty article, full of
abuse, of the Ministerial plan for depriving the
East India Company of its monopoly of the
China trade. " A scheme of mulcts and de-
gradation, which seems scarcely consonant with
Old Bailey justice," are among the soft and rea-
soning phrases i►► which the writer has vented
his indignation, and amused the opponents of
exclusive privileges. The facts of the case
may be stated in two words : The East
India Company were granted, for a time,
the monopoly of the trade to China,
upon certain conditions. We do not say the
conditions have not been fulfilled, but the time
is out, and we do not choose to renew the lease
upon the old terms. This is spoliation, robbery,
a scheme of mulcts and degradatio►► !
The remaining articles are of more varied and
general interest than usual.

NORTBCROFT'S PARLIAMENTARY

CHRONICLE.

The March and April numbers of this Ses-
sional periodical are before us. We cannot
better describe it than by saying that it is an ex-
ceedingly cheap Hansard, got up in the most
beautiful manner. It is published three
times per week, and at the end of the
month all the numbers are bound up into a
part. There is one thing we would suggest
as an improvement to these parts which
might be made _certainly at some expense of
labour, but not of money ; we mean attaching
a table of contents or index to each. The
ti Parliamentary Chronicle" is essentially a work
of reference, and must have an index at the end
of the session. The question is, whether the
proprietors cannot contrive to let their Subscr-
ibers have the benefit of one during the session.

LENT ASSIZES.

NORTHERN CIRCUIT..-LINC.ISTEZ,
Me!JCR 28
DOE, DEAL BEARDEN, V. MADEN.

This was an action of ejectment brought by the
plaintiff, as Lord of the Manor of Rochdale, to recover
certain lands in the possession of the defendant, as part
and parcel of die wastes of the manor of Rochdale. The
case excited considerable interest in the neighbourhood
from the circumstances of the estate of the manor of
Rochdale having belonged to the Byron family, and its
having been sold by the late Lord Byron to the present
plaintiff. The case was tried in part at the Summer
Assizes for 1830, when the plaintiff was met by a legal
difficulty, upon which he was nonsuited. On the present
occasion the whole merits came under discussion.
The manor of Rochdale extends over no less than 32,000
acres of land, comprising the parish of Rochdale, winch
was divided into several townships, and those into hamlets,
and a large district in which the place in question was
situate was called Brandwood. In this district were a
number of freehold tenements, and also a large piece of
waste or rather commo❑ land called Tooter•hiil and Reaps
Moss, to which the owners of the freeholds claimed rights
in severalty in respect of their tenements: About 19
years ago they agreed to enclose and divide a part of the
common among themselves, and in pursuance of this
agreement a stone wall was built round a part containing
145 customary acres of land: a piece of this, amounting
to a little more than eight acres was the plot in question,
but the result involved the title to the whole enclosure
and common, and to the v Auable coal and other mines
beneath the surface.

On the part of the plaintiff letters-patent of the 27th
Elizabeth were put in, by which the manor of Rochdale
was demised to Sir John Byron, Knight, for 31 years.
The title was then traced down, by a series of eight manor
rolls, to the late celebrated Lord Byron ; and, to avoid a
legal difficulty, one of the demises was laid in the name of
Augusta Ada, his only child and heiress at law. ify these
rolls it was attempted to be shown that the occupiers of
land in Brandwood, and even the defendant himself, had
paid certain customary rents for the waste. It, however,
did not appear that there were any rents or services paid
for the district in question, and the evidence of the exer-
cise of rights by ethers was rebutted.
On the part of the defendant, it was contended that
Brandwood never was nor could be any part of the manor
of Rochdale, though it lay within its ambit, but was in
the manor of Spotland, which, in ancient time, belonged
to the monastery of Stanlaw, the site of which being ex-
posed to floods, was removed and became the Abbey of
Whalley, which had long since, with all its rights, be-
longed to the family of Lord Howe, and was now enjoyed
by his Lordship. Several acts of ownership were then
shown by living witnesses, and, after a laborious summing
up, the Jury returned a verdict for the defendant.

TIIE FUNDS.

The Lisbon mail which has arrived did not have any
communication with Oporto, consequently we have no

Up to the present hour all our endeavours to obtain in-

do we believe that the merchants have received any letters
by the Lisbon mail from ()poi to, consequently the reports
pro and con for both parties are not worth observation ;

IRISH JURIES' BILL.

Lord MELBOURNE moved the third reading of this bill.
The Bill was read a third time ; and on the motion that
it do pass,
The Duke of WELLINGTON proposed an amendment
by way of rider.
The Earl of LONGFORD opposed the Bill, and said
there was no necessity whatever for it.
Lord CARBERY also opposed the Bill.
The Marquis of WESTMEATH complained of the
abuses existing in the Sheriff's office, and referred to some
cr•es in proof of the fact.
Lord CLONCURRY said that this Bill re-invested
Sheriffs with power which they ought never to posers.
He himself had known five men to have acted as Sheriffs
in the county of Kildare, though they were notoriously
insolvent at the time. It was quite itnpossihle that such
men could act with honest impartiality in the selection of
Juries.

The Earl of RODEN decidedly objected to this Bill.
He telt persuaded that if there was any thing good in the
jurisprudence of Ireland, it was in the manner in which
Juries were constituted. He had known many men in
Ireland to have kept away from the jury-box rather than
be obliged to return verdicts contrary to their consciences.
One particular part of the Bib was highly objeciionable—
namely, that which excluded parish•clerks from serving
on juries. Why were they excluded? Was it because
they were Protestants ?
Viscount MELBOURNE had already answered the
several objections that had been urged against the Bill;
and be trusted, therefore, that Noble Lords would not
think him disrespectful if he did not go into them again.
The Noble Lord bad alluded to certain exclusions, which
he complained of in a tone of seriousness almost bordering
on the burlesque ; but, in point of tact, these exclusions,
as the Noble Lord termed them, were only exemptious
from the performance of a❑ onerous duty. He did not
know if the burden were cast upon those persons by the
provisions of the present Bill, or the contrary; but if it
were not, instead of being considered as an exclusion, it
sh,,uld be considered as an exemption in their favour.
The Bill was then passed.
The other orders of the day were then disposed •f, and
the House adjourned at 25 minutes put seven o'clock.

AWFUL CATASTROPHE.— A New York
paper states, that while mass was being celebrated in a
church near Facunga, in the Rebulic of Equador, South
America, on the festival of " Del Corpus," 6re was com-
municated to the building by means of a rocket, and that
in the rush to the door it became shut, and the pressure
rendering it impossible to open it, the whole congrega-
tion perished in the flames, except the curate, who escaped
through a window. The number of lives lost was esti-
mated at 500, besides children.

DREADFUL INCENDIARISM.—SOUIe wretch,
on Sunday night last, caused a fire, by which nearly 400
sheep and 43 pigs were burnt to death, the property of C.
RENDALL, Esq., of 'stone, near Amesbury. The sheep,
which were to be turned on the Downs on the following
morning, were penned in a farm-yard nearly two miles
from Mr. RENDALVS, dwelling-house. Tne alarm was
given between nine and ten o'clock, at which time the
flames were truly awful ; but before any person could ar-
rive at the spot, the whole of the pigs n ere conctuned ;
and the sheep were enveloped in flames. The quantity of
straw placed in the yard for their reception quickly aided
the progress of the flames. Besides the sheep and the
pigs, there were ready 300 quarters of birley and oats, in
rcks and in barn, consumed. So determined was the per-
petrator of this mischief to effect his fiendish purpose,
the premises and the straw were set fire to in several dif-
ferent places. The amount of the loss, we understand, is
about 2,0001.....Devizes Gazette. that

EFFECT OF EPIDEMICS.

M. VILLERME, a French writer, has just published an
Essay on the " Effect of Epidemics," from which we
make the following extract, as it appears in the Medical
Gazette:—

" It is the nature of epidemic maladies to render other
complaints more rare. This has been observed often
enough by physicians ; they are familiar with the fact,
that while an epidemic reigns, other maladies diminish in
frequency, or exhibit more or le,s of the symptoms of the
prevailing disease. In the month of April last, when the
cholera prevailed in Paris; we had a good example of this.
But the practical consequence to be derived from the cir-
cumstance is, hat when an epidemic is not particularly
destructive, the usual number of deaths is not much, or
scarcely at all, augmented. One might imagine that those
persons who, at ordinary periods, would die of various
deaths, now die of the prevailing one, as if the special
causes of the latter, its very existence, or the circum-
stances which attend it, were so many preventatives of
the ordinary mortal diseases. Thus in the 47 communes
of the department of the Oise, which reckoned, in 1821,
116 deaths from the miliaru-sweat, the total mortality
did not exceed what it reasonably ought to be, taking
into consideration the rate of increase of population, am.l
supposing that no extraordinary cause of mortality existed
during that year. For example, in the said communes,
In 1816 there were 709 deaths
1817
1818
1819
1020
1821 (Epid.)
The result to he deduced from this and similar facts is,
that epidemics, generally speaking, do not warrant the
alarm which their appearance ordinarily excit,e. It is,
however, unquestionable that they always increase the
number of the sick, as well as that they have often de-
populated whole countries "

GLASGOW LOTTERY.

Sir B. INGLIS, adverting to the Glasgow Lottery Bill,
wished to know whether his Majesty's Government were
aware that such a Bill had passed the House ?

Lord ALTHORP had not been at all aware that such
a Bill way in progress through Parliament until it had
passed. The word " lottery" did not occur in the Bill
until the end. It could scarcely be necessary for him to
add, that his Majesty's Government were not disposed to
give encouragement to any such proceeding.
Sir R. PEEL observed, that the BM might he repealed.
—(Some Hon. Member stated that the lottery had been
drawn.) The parties implicated in the transaction ought
to be subjected to punishment.

DEATH OF DR. BABINGTON.

It is with extreme sorrow that we announce the death
of Dr. Babington, which took place at hie house in De-
vonshire-street, Portland-place, on Monday evening, after
an illness of a few days duration. At its commencement,
his di.ease presented the ordinary character of the prevail-
inc epidemic, hut in consequence of advanced age (76) and
unremitting professional exertion, it epee ii y assumed the
more alarming form of " Peripneumonia Notra."
By tie death of this venerable physician the profession
his been deprived of a distinguished ornament, and t►e
public of a kind, liberal, and enlightened practitioner ;
while the scientific world will have to deplore a
man who formed, as it were, the connecting link between
the departed and living philosophers of the last half cen-
tury, for, from Priestley, at whose centenary festival he so
lately presided, down to Wollaston and Davy, Dr. Bab-
binoon was the personal friend and agreeable associate
of the most distinguishei persoai in this coun'ry.
In truth, his amiable temper, and gentle manners, sound
jndgrnent, liberal sentiments, and varied information, ren-
dered his society highly acceptable to a Blass of men who's
stern and laborious abstrac ions occasimally required the
soothing repose of friendly intercourse, and the exhilara-
ting relief of enlivening cons., nation.

HOUSE OF COMMONS, APRIL 29.

Lord LOWTHER obtained leave to be examined upon
a message from the House of Lords before a Railway
Committee of the House of Lords.
EMBARRASSMENT OF MINISTERS.

The House, long before the Speaker took the chair, was
crowded in every corner, and the greatest anxiety pre-
vailed to hear what was to be said on the subject of the
defeat of his Majesty's Ministers on Friday night last.
The SPEAKER called on Lord AL THORP, and upon
his Lordship's rising, there was a general cry of " Order,
order," which was responded from the Chair, with a call
of " Gentlemen will plea..e to take their places."
When silence was obtained,
_ _ _

Lord ALT EIORP said, I am quite persuaded that every
gentleman in the House must be anxious to hear what
I wish to state on the present occasion. The decision
of the House on Friday being particular, considering the cir-
cumstances under which it took place, has, as I stated at the
time it would, placed Government under great emb areas-
ment ; and in taking this question into our considerat;on, we
have felt it desirable to bring the question again to the coa-

siderati3n of the House, and in such a manner that the
whole state of the case may be brought before them, that
they may lee clearly all the consequences which may take
place occasioned by the proceeding of ►hat night, and come
