By the Dutch papers arrived this morning we have
accounts from Berlin of the 27th ult., stating that the
day previous to the arrival there of the Duke of Cumber-
laud, Lord Minto, the English Ambassador, had left
Berlin on family affiira ; on the Ambassador's return he
waited on the Royal Duke, who would not receive him ;
the Duke was so much offended that the Ambassador did
not wait his arrival, that he has written to the English
Ministry on the subject.
We have received accounts from Cadiz, stating that
the Queen was proclaimed there, and every thing was
tranquil.

The part-heard arguments were resumed at the sitting

but there was nothing of any public interest is the argu-
ti'ents.

LITERATURE

A STORY WITHOUT AN END.
LONDON, 1833.

A delightful little child's book, translated from
the German by Mrs. Austen. The embellish'
ments are singularly graceful, and the illustrative
letter-press is full of sprightly gossip about
fruits, flowers, birds, insects, and all the minor
marvels of the vegetable and animal crew.
Lion. It will be sure to be popular with young
folks, for it sets them on inquiry through the
agency of the fancy.

CONVERSATIONS WITH LORD
BYRON. LONDOZ, 1833.

The substance of this volume has already ap-
peared in the New Monthly Magazine, and
was noticed, as each separate portion was pub'
lished, in The Sun. These are now collected
and republished, and form a goodly octavo
volume, with a portrait of Lord Byron by way of
frontispiece, who is represented with a very
sour crout expression of countenance. Lady
Blessington is the avowed authoress.

Montreal papers to the 16th November, Singapore to

arrived there in seven days from Quebec, with the Chief
Judge, Bolton, and family on board.

up, official communication having been made that his
Excellency the Governor had received the mandamus from
the Colonial Office,:calling M. B. Garland, William Tho-
mas, and Dunacomb to a seat in his Majesty's Council.

NAPOLI, Nov. 12.—The second division of the vo-
lunteers, levied in Bavaria, landed here a week ago, after a
!Image of twenty-four days, without having a single in-
dividual sick on board. Like the first division they are
entirely composed of fine young men. His Majesty in-
spected them on their landing. They will remain here a
few days, and are, from what we hear, destined for
Athens. The two squadrons of the third and fourth re-
giments of Bavarian light horse, quartered here, will on
the 15th take their passage on hoard the vessels that
brought the volunteers, to return to Bavaria. The King
entertaining a proper sense of the excellence of their con-
duct, and of their attention to service, gave them an en-
tertainment before the gates of Napoli, on the Bth.
Much enthusiasm was displayed on this occasion, both on
the part of the military and the inhabitant..
FRANKFORT, DEC. 2.—An application has been made
to the High Senate for the Eschernhesimer gate, and As-
chaffenbourg gate, in the Faubourg of Sachenbausen, to
he guarded by the foreign troops stationed here. The

the Diet, and that called the German house, more secure.
The application has been refused by the Senate.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, DEC. 12.

(Londo❑ Sittings at Nisi Prius before Lord Chief Justice
DEN3tAN and a Common Jury )
WRENCH V. HUDSON.

The plaintiff, a mathematical instrument maker, brought
his action to recover the balance of an account, originally
1061., for a galvanic battery, several thermometers, a
prism, and other scientific instruments, sold and delivered
to the defendant at his shops in St. Martin's court, Char-
ing.cross, and Leadenhall-street.
Mr. THESSIGER, for the defendant, said the plaintiff's
account had been settled by a bill of exchange for 501.,
which Mr. Wrench had been paid.
Mr.CO3IYN, who was counsel for the plaintiff, said they
had giv.n credit for that sum.
Mr. TitESSIGER admitted that credit had been given
for the amount, but that he considered an ingenious mode
of getting mere than the plaintiff was entitled to. He
should contend that the SOL bill was given in payment of
all the demands which the plaintiff could make on Mr.
Hudson. Some of the articles delivered might have been
sent to the defendant's father in Leadenhall-street, but the
defendant was not liable to ply for them.
The Jury found for the plaintiff—Damages 231.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, DEC. 12

William Charles Gledhill, formerly a carpenter and
joiner, was oppo.ted by a Mr. Callard, a baker iu person.
The claim of CaHard was for 201., for bread and flour
esytea he years supplied to his debtor. The insolvent was entitled to a
reversionary interest in 2001. upon the death of his mo-
soafida he had made over to
age, under the will of
stepfatherthhiesr,anoltl
woman
f this if n t 7
eBl
one of his daughters, but upon inquiry it ap-
peared that the making over to the daughter bad been
effected Isy a will in which he (the insolvent) had be-
queathed the reversionary 2001. to the daughter.
The Learned Commissioner HARRIS said a making over
of this sort was totally inefficacious as against the creditors.
The case must be adjourned for the probate of the will of
the stepfather to be produced.

REVIEW OF THE SCOTCH FUSILEER GUARDS.

The Ist and 2d Battalions of the 3d Regiment of Guards
(Scotch Fusileers) were reviewed this morning, in Hyde Park
by General Rowland Lord Hill, G.C.8., and G.C.11., Com-
manding-in-Chief.
The Ist Battalion was commanded by COIGTIPI Bowater.
The 3d Battalion was commanded by Colonel Mercer.
The Regiment was under the command of Colonel Ideate.
The Battalions arrived on the ground at 10 o'clock, and
formed in contiguous close columns. The Battalions subse-
quently deployed, formed line, and took open order.
General Lord Hill, attended by his staff, and accompanied
by several General officers, arrived on the ground at eleven
o'clock, and took post in front of the centre of the line, and
was received with a general salute.

The Commander.in-Chief, followed by a splendid military
cortege, rode to the right of the line, passed down the front,
and up the rear, and afterwards took his station in front of the
line.

The Battalions then took close order, wheeled back into
open column, right in front, and marched past, in review•
order, in slow and quick time.
The Duke of Gloucester passed at the head of the column,
saluted, as the Colonel of the Regiment, and then took hi,
station beside Lord Hill.

The battalions having arrived on their original ground, pro-
ceeded to perform a variety of movements and manoeuvres,
with great celerity and precision.
The wheeling, the countermarching, the advance in line,
the formation of squares, the reformation of open column,.
the countermovements, the echelon formations, and the
charges, were admirably executed.
The line being reformed, the regiment took open order,
advanced in line, halted, and gave the General Salute.
Lord Hill then advanced, and expressed himself highl
gratified with the discipline and appearance of the regiment.
The Commander-in-Chief then left the Park.
There was a vast concourse of people, and a great deal of
beauty and fashion on the ground.

CORPORATION REFORM.

Mr. VERNON SMITH moved for an address for the
appointment of a Commission to inquire into the state of
the Municipal Corporations in England, Wales, and Ire-
land; and that the Commission should inquire into the
defects, so as to enable the House to legislate, e illy in next
session. At this late hour he would ❑ot detain the House
by any observations. This was the plan recommended by
the Report of the Couunitt:e.
The motion was agreed to without a division.

men to pieces in Manchester, Whig police,
knocked their brains out in the metropolis.
Lord SIDMOUTH sanctioned the former p!
ceediugs, Lord MELBOURNE actively super
tended r the latter. We protest that we know I
to which to accord the preference, Whig or To
Both, in this instance, have done their best tort
a harvest of unpopularity, and (so far as we col
to the contrary) both have been equally succe
ful. Coldhath-fields is not a whit behind Peterli
for though the Tory yeomanry used their swill
and the Whig policemen only their staves,' 1
the amount of injury inflicted, and, above
the display of brute zeal, was pretty nearly'
same in both places.

If Ministers have the slightest respect left)
character, they will not hesitate an instant'
not one single instant—in instituting a sti
inquiry into all the circumstances connect
with the Calthorpe-street atrocity. When 01
they were clamorous enough in demanding
investigation into the Manchester massacre ; Ilt
that they are in, let them show thernselt
equally alive to the not less pressing demands
justice. Their consenting or omitting to '
so, will be a decisive proof of their integrity,
otherwise. It is for their own sakes that'
urge this demand ; for, though they have he
guilty of countless blunders—which no hoot
Journal, that advocates the people's cause
preference to the interests of party, can possit
overlook—still we would fain rank among till
friends and well-wishers—fain hope that they vi
yet retrieve themselves.

SIR WALTER SCOTT'S POETRY.

(From Fraser's Magazine.)
I say there is not a man among us who col'

I have many a tale of my own ; but I preft
telling one of Sir Adam Ferguson's. It mayb

we were warring once on a time-4, In our 11
youth, when George the Third was King"--1
the Peninsula, and that something like fightin.
went forward on the occasion—end among tfr
fights, not the least glorious was that of Albueml
won by Lord Beresford, contrary to all the at
guments of Colonel Napier, who proves that 10
Lordship was defeated. The French, to b ,
sure, were of a different opinion ; for they 01
away, leaving the field and a great Many goo'
fellows of their own stiff' and stark upon tt
which shows satisfactorily that they had Ile
studied the excellent work of Colonel Napit
with due attention. Well, in that battle

fight, had received a copy of the " Lady of tb

the last, his attached friend. Sir Adam had 1)6
gun to read the book, when the attack of th
Polish lancers commenced, and he was oblige'
to attend to a combat more personally pressimli,
than the adventures of " the stag who at Mdrr
had drunk his fill." After a short time th

PARISH OF UTTOXETER.

The HON. MEMBER then stated he had a petition to
present of rather a novel character, as it related to tithes
of a particular parish—the parish of Uttoxeter, in Staf-
ford. Although the tithes (amounting to 1,2001.) were
amply sufficient for the purpose of remunerating the
Incumbent, and although they were vested in the hands of
the ecclesiastical body—namely, the dean and chapter of
Windsor—yet they were some way or other applied to other
purposes, and the incumbent who was the working minister
had only the paltry pittance of 20/. a year, with the Easter
dues, which were too small to attend to a parish of 5,000
s pulp. lie was obliged to keep a curate out of his small sal try
(Laughter)—and if he bad not some little private property
of his own, he would not have enough to live upon.
The property was originally granted to the Dean and
Chapter of Windsor, for the moral and religious improve-
ment of the poor of the parish, bat instead of being ap-
plied to the<e purposes, the Dean and Chapter had stated
th,.y could not tell what use was made of them ; and
therefore the petitioners prayed that an inquiry might be
directed, to see they were applied to those purposes for
which they were originally intended. The petition was
signed by all the respectable inhabitants of the parish.
Mr. E. BULWER supported the prayer of the

petition.
After some further observations from Mr. COBBLTT,
the petition was ordered to lie on the table.
Mr. LOCKE presented a petition from the ladies of
Devizes, for the abolition of slavery.

Captain WEMYSS presented petitions for the better
observance of the Sabbath Day, and for the abolition of
slavery.
Colonel GORE LANGTON presented a petition frcm
various parts of Somersetsbire, for the abolition of slavery.
Sir W. INGILBY presented upwards of 60 petitions

from different parts of Lincolnshire, to the same effect.
Mr. O'CONNELL was convinced that the Society in
general, and the people at large, were in favour of the
abolition of slavery.
Ater a few words from Mr. FINCH and Mr. O'CotiNoß,
Sir W. INGILBY presented three petitions from va-
rious parts of Lincolnshire, for the abolition of the duty on
malt, another for the repeal of the hawkers' license duty,
and the third for the abolition of tithes.
Mr. BARNARD presented a petition from Maidstone
against slavery; and one from Blackstall.
Mr. MARSHALL presented a petition from the
hankers, merchants, assignees, and others, relating to
notaries public ; also several other petitions on various

the crowd towards their favourite candidate, to
state that Sir Joni HOBHOUSE himself bears
honourable testimony to the conduct of his gal-
lant opponent Colonel EVANS, who, at some
personal risk, insisted on a fair hearing being
granted to Sir JOHN HOBHOUSE. If, there-
fore, the violence of the crowd, under the
influence of a just indignation, be a ground
of regret among the respectable electors,
it can be none for supporting Sir JOHN
HOBHOUSE in preference to Colonel EVANS,
whose conduct throughout the nomination yes-
terday was that of a high-minded and honourable
gentleman. It is at the same time due to Colonel
EVANS to declare that the statement of his
having had any conversation with Mr. WAKLEY
previous to the nomination, on the subject of
pledges, is wholly without foundation.

We hear that one of the agents of Govern-
ment in Portugal has been writing letters to an
official person here against Marshal SOLIGNAC,
which have been inserted in one of the daily
Papers. Lord PALMERSTON will do well to
institute an inquiry into this very improper
conduct.

The German papers contain no intelligence
of importance.

The more we canvass Sir JOHN HOBHOUSE'S
recent conduct, the more we are perplexed and
bewildered. We cannot forget that, as he him-
self expressed it in his farewell address, "he
owed every thing" to the electors of Westmin-
ster, and that the way he evinced his gratitude
was by deserting them at the very first appear-
ance of danger. To be sure, Sir JOHN alleged,
by way of excuse for such a dereliction of duty,
that Government had spiked him on the
horns of a dilemma ; but this was only
an additional reason why he should have
stuck still closer to his Westminster friends.
When he found that their interests were likely to
be endangered by an ingenious Ministerial sub-
terfuge, he should at once have denounced the
subterfuge, and fought the battle of his consti-
tuents with more spirit and determination than
ever. When his ship's crew is in danger, a
brave captain will be the last to take to the long
boat. With every disposition to befriend him,
we can find no excuse for Sir JOHN'S conduct.

It is indefensible in point of principle ; still more
so, as respects precedent. If every Hon. Member
is to be frightened out of his duty to his consti-
tuents by a Ministerial bugbear, to what end do
we send representatives to Parliament ? In a
word, for there is no use in mincing matters,
Sir JOHN'S public character is at present under
eclipse.

The last accounts from Oporto fully confirm
what we stated about the intrigues which were
going on there. We are happy now to learn from
a respectable source, that the Marquis of PAL-
MELLA is likely to receive an invitation from
Don PEDRO. to return to Oporto, coupled with
such a vindication of him, and an apology for
the unjust treatment that he has received, as will
do away with all his scruples against resuming
office. The Noble Marquis, after having sacri-
ficed his entire fortune for the Constitutional
cause, is much more worthy of public confidence
and support than Don PEDRO'S flatterers, and
those who have only their own selfish objects
in view.

EX PARTE SFALDING, ESQ.

The Sor.tcr•rort- GENERAL applied to discharge the rule
which he had obtained for leave to file 3 criminal informa-
tion against the printer of the Northampton Herald, for
a libel on Mr. Spalding, the son-in•law of the Lord
Chancellor, charging him with having used disrespectful
language towards her Majesty the queen. The applica-
tion was granted, and the Learned Counsel then moved for
a rule Nisi for leave to file a criminal information against
the same party, on different affidavits from those on which
the former rule had been obtained. He explained that the
reason of this proceeding was this :—The libel imputed to
Mr. Spalding the use, at a public dinner at Northampton,
of some disrespectful expressions towards her Majt•sty.
Mr. Spalding had at first considered that his own affidavit
denying the fact would he sufficient ; but it had been
ascertained that the defendant intended to bring forward
three affidavits, to prove that the expressions had been
used ; and it became necessary, therefore, for Mr. Spald-
ing to substantiate his own statement. He had accordingly
procured the affidavits of Lord Dillon, Lord Clanbrassil,
Mr. Osbaldeston, Mr. Mostyn, Mr. Brown, and others,
to the effect that he had never made use of the language
imputed to him ; and it was upon these fresh affidavits
that he now wished to have another rule for a criminal in-
formation.

The COURT refused the applicatbm, observing, that it
would be a dangerous precedent-. Every applicant would
he pursuing a similar course as soon as he saw or heard of
the afflavits on the other side.—Rule refused.

PAVILION THEATRE.

We were on Monday night much pleased with the per.
formances at this theatre. After Richard the Third, which
was very fairly played by YOUNGE, from Old Drury, one of the
most amusing little interludes which we have seen for some
time at either a major or minor theatre was produced under the
title of the White Lion, or Love, Lies, and Literature. The
plot, although very simple, presents several good situations,
which were well brought out by Messrs. RAYNIOND and BURTON,
especially the latter, who, upon delivering three or four very
tolerable repartees, convulsed the House with laughter. A
Miss Jutisliq, too, from the provinces (we believe) ma,ie her
portion of the drama very effective. So long as FARRELL gives
us such performances, so long may he command success.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, JULY .

CARSON V. WILSHIRE.

This ws an ac,ion brz•ught by a young man against
his former-employer, a linen-draper, at Gosport, to reco-
ver damages for having given a false character to him. It
appeared from the evidence for the plaintiff, that the
plaintiff always conducted himself properly while in the
service of the defendant ; that the plaintiff required greater
wages, and therefore left his master, but they parted on
good terms. The •nl;iintiff heard some time after of a
situation at Mr. Mayhew's, a linen-draper, but on Mr.
Mayhew referring to the defendant for his character, the
defendant said he could not give the plaintiff one, as he
had not conducted himself civilly to the customers. and
had also behavedin a very ungentlemanly way to him.
Mr. Mayhew consequently declined employing the plaintiff.
On the part of the defendant, evidence was called to
prove that orf more than one occasion the plaintiff had
been in'oxicated ; e.nd he had once sad to his ma-ter,
who had spoken to him resp.cting a customer " Curse
the customer, and you too." It was also proved that his
demeanour to the customers was very " off hand."
Mr. Sergeant BOMPASS, for the plaintiff, remarked on
the fact, that th"se points had not been detailed by the
defendant to Mr. Mayhew.
The CHIEF Jos-nut told the jury to consider whether
the defendant had probable ground for refusing to rive a
character to the plaintiff, and to teturn a verdict accord-
ingly.
The fury found for the plaintiff—Damages, one farthing.
The CHIEF JUSTICE certified, and said that the case
was one which should not have been brought into Court.

AS I LEY'S THEATRE.

A new piece, with which evident pains have been taken (at
least as regards the getting up) was last night produced at this
theatre. It is entitled, The Harpooner; or, the Ice Sea and
Me Monster Whale of Greenland, and attracted 0110 cf the
fullest houses we have seen for some time. During the horse-
manship, which, undoubtedly, exceeds any thing ever seen in
this country, there were no fewer than two or three hundred
people on the stage. The new piece was the last par' of the
eiening's entertainment. It was on the whole but indiffe-
rently successful. The piece, indeed, as a whole has but little
of the aspect of probability about it. It is, for example,
rather beyond the range of probability, that there should be a
negro sailor on board an Aberdeen whaler, in her voyage to
Greenland to prosecute the whale fishing. It is still more so
that there should be four female passengers in a voyage of the
kind in question. At the conclusion there was no announce-
ment as to whether or not the piece was intended for repeti-
tion. The fall of the curtain was received with mingled cheers
and hisses.
