SPAIN.

It is apparent to all that the very severe indisposition of
my dear and much-beloved consort has been the cause of
delay in the affairs of state; it was in consequence neces-
sary, in order to remedy an evil which in a great measure
increased the symptoms of his illness, that be should con-
fide to me the despatch of business, and have recourse to
other steps, imperiously called for by the critical situation
of the kingdom. With the natural desire that so precious
a life should be saved, I accepted with pleasure this task,
and have devoted, myself to it with all the attention of
which a soul which burns with desire for the public ho-
nour and happiness is capable. Nevertheless, my labours
would not attain the sublime objects to which they are
directed, if, in the first place, the tribunals, and, in the
next place, all persons entrusted with the public adrninis.
tration, (lid not co-operate in so laudable an end. I have
this hope in the virtues which render them all so estimable,
and in those for which the magistrates of Spain have ever
been respected by those who have arrived at a knowledge
of their inteerity and rectitude,—their impartiality and
wisdom,—their dignity and disinterestedness,—their
honour and laboriousness ; but that in the midst of these
virtues they may not want the pleasure of my appro-
bation, I desire to manifest it by assuring to them my
protection against those intriguers who, under the
impulse of ignoble and interested passions, opposed
their just and lawful intentions,—their advance-
ment in their respective careers,—the honourable em-
ployment of their families, their quiet, favour, and
corn fort,—and, in short, by looking upon them as a select
portion of the State, since those well de,erve such atten-
tion, who, solely occupied with the rublie good, forgetting
their private interests, and sacrificing themselves In order
to obtain approbation in the employments to which they
were called. But if, as I trust will never be the case,
they should he guilty—namely, the Magistrates and those
charged with the administration of justice, whatever be
the class to which they belong—of the odious crimes of
subornation, bribery, collusion, intrigue, partiality, neglect
of busint 89, and others which the pen refuses to write, in
such case I will be firm and inexorable :.punishing with

the utm st severity such as may be guilty of those crimes,
since, in addition to the turpitude and ignominy which
accompany them, they are guilty of a breach of that confi-
dence which the Sovereign has placed in them, and of the
hopes and rights claimed by society from their honour and
probity.
You will understand it so, and deliver it for execution.
Under the Queen's Royal hand.

The COURT—Ve.think two days will be sufficient.

The ATTORNRY-GENERAL-If they get two days they
must be ready to plead on Wednesday, at the sitting of the
Court ; it is quite clear, therefore, the trials cannot come
on before Thursday.
The COURT-You must plead or demur on Wednesday,
before the rising of the Court.

The ATTORNEY-.GENERAL here said Mr. M. Costello
surrendered so late that he had a right to traverse ix prox,
but perhaps he would not avail himself of that right. He
(the Attorney-General) would suggest to the Court whe-
ther or not it would adjourn from Wednesday to Friday, so
as to he able to try Mr. Costello with the others ?
After some further conversation, the traversers were al-
lowed to stand out on the same recognizancea until Wed-
nesday next.

IRISH COMMISSION OF ASSIZES.

DUBLIN, Auc. 6.—At ten o'clock this morning Judges
BURTON and VANDELEUR entered the Commission Curt,
which was crowded with very respectable persons. Shortly
afterwards Mr. J. C. BRADY moved, on behalf of the
Messrs. Curran, traversers, for a copy of the indictments
laid against them. His application was grounded on the
60th Geo. 111. He also applied for the same on behalf
of Mr. Poole and others.

Judge BURTON-Who are the agents.
Mr. M. COSTELLO-Messrs. Hall and Bentley for some
of the traversers ; Mr. J. L. Murphy for others.
Motion granted.
The Crown Solicitor in a few minutes afterwards served
copies of the indictment ou the traversers' agents. In the
indictments, which are very voluminous, there are counts
as well for sedition as for conspiracy.
At half-past twelve o'clock the ATTORNEY-GENERAL
came into Court with Mr. Serjeant PERRIN, and, after a
trifling case had been disposed of,
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL rose and said—My Lords, in
the case of the " King v. Poole and others," against
whom bills of indictment were sent before the Grand
Jury on Saturday, I am to apply to your Lordships that
they be called on their recognizance.
The traversers' bar was then cleared, and the Clerk of the
Crown called the following : W. Poole, J. 2lagrane, T.
Reynolds, J. A. Curran, and W. Curran. They all
appeared but W. Poole, and the names of the sureties
were called, in the usual manner, " to bring forth the
body," &c.

Some time elapsed awaiting Mr. Poole's appearance.
Mi. HolmEs at length rose and said—l am a Counsel
for the traversers. A long indictment has just been put
into my hands, containing charges of a very ❑ovel charac-
ter, and it is but a reasonable application to seek for time
to plead.

The COURT—What time do you seek?
Mr. HOLMES-Four days. Your Lordship knows that
in cases where there exists a right to plead or demur, the
Court of King's Bench ever grant further time ; and
the practice of that Court is not inapplicable. 1 have
not been able to read more than one or two out of twenty.
five or twenty-six counts contained in the indictment.

The COURT—You could let us know whether you intend
to plead or demur in less time.
The ATTORNEY•GENERAL-The time of four days it is
impossible to grant. But of course I shall accede to what—
ever your Lordships please. _ _

THE WINDSOR CAMP.

This morning the roads from the metropolis to Wind-
sor presented a warlike aspect. The Grenadier Guards
and the flank companies belonging to the different batta-
lions of the Foot Guards left their barracks, together with
waggons containing the officers' baggages ;—some at an
early hour. The various necessaries and camp equipages
for the service of between 3,000 and 4,000 men, have
been on the spot for this fortnight past.
The 3d Regiment of Dragoon Guards arrived in London
at nine o'clock this morning, from Brighton, and pro.
ceeded to the Regency barracks. They are to do duty in
place of the Life Guards, who are to march to Windsor
to-morrow morning.
Three troops of flying artillery, with six pieces of
cannon, six-pounders, from Woolwich, passed over West-
minster-bridge about 10 o'clock, and proceeded through
the Park by Story's Gate; with their baggage and ammo-
nition•waggons together, they formed a considerable train.
They will halt to-night at Hounslow.
The companies of the First Regiment of Guards will all
be quartered at Kingston, and those belonging to other
regiments of the same corps will be quartered in different
places, but as near to each other as possible.
The ground marked out for the principal camp atWind-
sot• is opposite the Long Walk, in front of the Queen's
windows.

The same duty, and exactly the same ceremonies, will
be performed by the troops as if they were in an enemy's
country.

Poor old Windsor Castle will be bombarded without
shot or shell ; stormed, taken and retaken, again and
again.

The butchers of the army will even kill their own meat,
and serve it up in pieces, without weighing, on the hides
of the animals, and in such manner it will be distributed
to the messes. They will forage for fuel to cook with, &c.

Venice, as she existed in her earlier days,
when all connected with her partook of the spirit of
romance, and her very Government, mysterious, solemn,
and haughty, was itself a complex species of romance, has
furnished to the splendid imagination of Mr. Cuorx the
ground-work of his new production, " The Bravo." The
incentives to curiosity were never wanting in the previous
Tales of this highly-original writer, but, in the present
one, almost every page is the harbinger of some new won-
der—the vehicle of some fresh excitement.

AT a MEETING of the COUNCIL of the
BIRMINGHAM POLITICAL UNION, held at
the Union Rooms, Great Charles-street, on Tuesday, sth
June, 1832,
It was Resolved,

That this Council deem it inexpedient to interfere re-
specting any arrangements which may be adopted by the
inhabitants of Birmingham to express their joy at the pas-
sing of the English Bill of Reform ; but in accordance
with the profession of acting upon generous and magna-
nimous principle•, the Council think it would be incon-
sistent in them to take the lead in any demonstration of
public rejoicing until the Royal Assent be given to the
" three Bills of Reform for England, Scotland, and Ire-
land," upon which occasion, they are of opinion, that a
" grand and magnificent" display of national joy and
triumph should take place in this town.

FURTHER PARTICULARS PRO3I OUii LIVERPOOL COR-

RESPONDENT.)

It appears that Cook arrived here about six o'clock on
Friday evening, and lodged with a watchman in Accomo-
dation-row. I conversed this morning with this person,
and he told me that he appeared quite lively, enjoyed him-
self, walked our, and absolutely went with the family to
Dr. Stewart's Scotch Chapel, last Sunday morning. His
villany does not seem to have been complete, as last
night, at a quarter before eleven, he met the said watch-
man in the street, and asking him what time it was,
begged him to let him look at the watch. On receiving
it he went off with it, and it was found upon him. When
shown one of the bills describing it, he read it, and laughed,
saying he could not help it, and he supposed they would
have gone first to London after him. He slept soundly
in gaol as soon as he had got his wet clothes changed. The
description of him was very correct, but he had taken care
to have his whiskers shaved. Every commendation, lam
sure, will be accorded by an excit d public, to the zeal
and ability of Mr. Owston. J. S. G.

Mr. GALT'S New Novel, " Stanley Buxton,"
is quite as dramatic as any of his former produc
tions. This present story details the history of three
schoolfellows, and the various incidents which diversi-
fied the tenour of their after lives. Stanley Buxton is
introduced to the reader as the young Earl of Erring_
ton, and to his tale is attached a mystery which is de-
ve'oped in the comae of the novel. Henry Franks is
the son of a gentleman in a mercantile situation in London,
and the confidant of Buxton. In Rawlston the cha-
racter of a Scotch laird is admirably depicted, with all the
humours and peculiarities apt to he engendered in such a
situation ; and in his sister, Miss Sibby, we have the por-
traiture of an old maid, than which nothing finer has been
drawn since the days of Dr. SMOLLETT and Tabitha
Bramble,
London, England, 1832-06-07

was the intention of the Government to pass the Land
Tax Bill for Scodand, which bad not been passed
year ? He asked the questicti, because there were son',
'natters of regulation connected with that Bill, which
would be affected ,by the Scotch Refocus Bill, and it
would, therefore, be convenient that they should pass to-
gether.—(Hear.)
Lord ALTHORP should certainly attend to the sug
gestion of the Hon. Bironet ; and if the Bill was in a su-
Gelent state of preparation, he saw no reason why it should
not pass at once.
DECCAN PRIZE MONEY.

Colonel SIBTHORPE said that the persons entitled ti
,hares in the Deccan P.rize Money, were most anxious tt
know 'whether there was any chance of the settlement c:
their claims?

Lord ALTHORP sai,l, that the matter was under con•
sideration, and he hoped that it would not be long before i
was decided.

SCOTCH REFORM BILL.

On the motion of the LORD ADVOCATE, the House
went into a Committee upon the Scotch Reform Bill.
The 23,1 clause was agreed to.
The 25th clause was postponed in order that an amend-
ment might be prepared and introduced by the Lord
Advocate.

The 26th, 27th, 28th and 29th clauses were agreed to.
The 30th clause, rt lating to the union of Orkney and
Shetland, was opposed by Sir 0. MurtßAl-, Mr. PR INc
and other members, but it was finally carried.
The several clauses from 31 to 36 were then agreed to,
I%;rh only a few verbal amendments.
Mr. HALIBURTON briefly supported the amendments.
Lord ALTHORP opposed the amendment, on the
fro❑nd that there was no reason for excluding the clergy
of Scotland from that right, which, under the Bill, as it
stood at present, they were entitled to, in common with
the rest of the people.
Mr. CAMPBELL thought the amendment would cast,
lionccessarily and ungenerously, a slur upon the Scotch
clergy. They had done nothing to mark them out from
the rest of the people, or to show that they were unfit to
exercise civil rights.
Sir G. MURRAY did not think that the Scotch clergy
were desirous to mix themselves with politics, but there
was no reason wherefore they should be by law excluded,
as citizens, from all interferene with political matters.
He opposed the amendment, because he thought it incon-
•istent with the respect to which the Scotch clergy, as a
Lolly and as individuals, were entitled.
Sir G. WA RRENDER hoped that the Hon. Gentle-
man (Mr. A. Johnstone) would withdraw his motion ; as
he must .certainly be left in a minority ; and if he were
not, the majority would appear to cast a slur upon the
clergy of Scotland.
Colo❑el LINDSAY thought that it would be very in-
expedient that his Hon. Friend should press the amend-
ment.

The House then divided.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MANSION-HOUSE.

Mr. Edward Drax Free, an individual who was for-
merly a beneficed clergyman, and who obtained peculiar
notice, some time since, from the nature of the proceedings
in the Ecclesiastical Court against him, came before the
LORD MAYOR, to solicit a summons to be issued against a
Magistrate, on the following serious charge :---Mr. Free
stated that he lent the gentleman in question a valuable
copy of an old edition of the Bible, containing an intro-
ductory discourse on the Revelations, by the learned
Junius, assisted by his friend Crevellius. This book was
particularly valuable in the eyes of the literati, on ac-
count of the scarce discourse, and also because it was the
second edition of Tyndal, printed at Antwerp, for which
he was afterwards strangled and burnt ! The party to
whom Mr. Free lent the book, stated that for a similar
copy he had refused 100 guineas from the Duke of Sussex,
and hived to be permitted to make extracts from tht;
marginal notes, and also from the discourse. Permission
was granted, and upon applying for the re►urn of the book,
Mr. Free experienced great difficulty in obtaining it, and
when he did so, he found that his friend had taken his
permission to "extract" in a literal sense, and had actually
extracted the most inestimable portion to a black-letter
virtuoso—viz., the discourse by Junius. He had in vain
sought to recover the lost treasure, and his applications,
by letter and otherwise, having failed, he found himself
compelled to request the assistance of a Magistrate, in
order ►o recover his property.
The Loan MAYOR, after some conversation, granted
the summons as requested.

G UILDHAL L.

John Thorp, an elderly man, was charged with per-
sonating Mr. Harry Child, 24, Noble-street, Spitalfields.
It appeared, the defendant personated Mr. Child, and
deposed that he had been present at the marriage of Mrs.
Rose, of Chancery-lane, which fact it was necessary to
prove in a suit instituted for defamation in the Ecclesiasti..
cal Court, by Mrs. Rose against Mr. Knight, also of
Chancery lane. At the time the defendant personated
Mr. Child, Mr. C. was in Gloucestershire.
The defendant said he made thedeposition out of friend..
ship for Mr. Rose, who told him that Mr. Child was mit
of town, and unless he (defendant) attended and gave
testimony for him, he would be deprived of his important
evidence. He attended accordingly, not expecting to be
sworn and examined in the way he was ; he was quite
drawn in.

Thorp was then committed for trial.

HEREFORD, JUNE 6.

The news of the third reading of the Reform Bill filled
all the inhabitants of this city with joy. The happy in-
telligence was received yesterday evening by the The Sun
express, through Worcester, as early as ei4ht o'clock,
when the people instantly began crowding the streets in
great numbers, and giving utterance to their gratified feel-
ings. Nothing was heard everywhere but the merry
peals of the bells, and the thundering huzzas of the as-
sembled people. Broad-street presented the most lively
scene of all ; and the shades of night were dispelled
by a large bonfire, which served as a point of union,
where- the people waited for the confirmation of the glo-
rious news by the arrival of the Bristol mail, which gene-
rally reaches here a little after eleven o'clock at night.
Large numbers of people went out to meet the mail coach,
and after taking away the horses, dragged it to the office,
amidst the loudest applause of the numerous assemblage.
The scene of joy continued till very late, as the people
went afterwards, with musical instruments parading
and shouting through the principal streets of this city.
It was very gratifying to all sincere Reformers to witness
the orderly conduct of the people, and to see that the
worthy Mayor mingled with them, and shared in their
heartfelt gratification.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, JUNE 6.

BRYDEN V. CARTER.
This was au action brought by the plaintiff to recover
rom the defendant the value of goods purchased for his
wife, living in a state of separation from her husband.
She had been engaged as a governess in the family of the
Marquess of Chandos, and leaving that, she went to live
at the house of the plaintiff, to whom she owed a specified
sum for board and lodging, and from whom (or on whose
credit) she got several articles of apparel, on receiving 50
appointment as governess i❑ the family of Miss Shepherd,
of Bath. The purchase of the articles at the house of Mr.
Dent, on the credit of Mrs. Bryden, was proved.
Two milliners of the name of Stewartson proved the
purchase of the goods by theiraunt, Mrs. Bryden, for Mrs.
Carter, and asserted they considered such articles as had
been purchased (and which were enumerated in Court front
the bill of particulars) were necessary to the outSt of a
governess.

Mks Jane Stevenson being cross-examined by Mr.
JONES—How do you know that Mrs. Carter ever had
the articles you mentioned ? Did you give or send them
to her? Witness—No, but I saw them on her.
Mr. JONES—What ! you saw six pair of hose on her ?
Witness—Not at the same time ; but she wore one pair at
a time.—(Laughter.)
Mr. JONES—Had the hose any particular mark by
which you could have known it ? 'Witness—No, there
was nothing peculiar in it ; but Mrs. Carter told me
when she had a pair on her.—(Laughter.)
Mr. JONES—What, then, she pointed to them ? Wit-
ness—l don't understand your poiitts, nor did I say she
pointed to them.—(Laughter.)
Justice ALDF.RSON—She held up her leg?—(Great
laughter.)

Mr. JONFS—You say you got her a boa fetch. Is
not that a fetch ? Witness—l don't know, but it was A
boa.:—(Laughter.)

Mr. JoisEs—Then it was the fetch or ghost of a boa,
with a long tail.—(Laughter.) But why do ladies wear
boas ?or why was one necessary for a governess ? Wit-
ness—To keep her warm.
Mr. JONES-But the velvet cape was to keep her
warm.? Witness--She might want both.—(Laughter.)
Mr. Serjeant JONES addressed the Jury for the defen-
dant, who returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Dsmages,
Twenty-six Pounds.

DINNER DRESS.

A material which was out of fashion for some time, is now
again in favour for dinner and demi-evening dress; it is
Chinese crape, which is now worn richly embroidered in
patterns similar to those of late so fashionable in velvet. A
tight corsage with waist as long as the figure will allow, cut in
three pieces, a la corset, and shaped round the waist, with a
slight point in front, and laced behind, creates a variety in the
folded corsages which have been so long common. The corsage
is likewise worn with a fold godet, and a ohernisette drawn
round the bosom. Tight corsages are now worn with firm ma.
terials, as satin chali and moire ; those full and folded are
made of softer materials, as of gauze, crape, and muslin. Plain
belts are universally laid aside in full and dinner dress. Scarf
sashes, or shaped belts, pointed before and behind, are fashion.
able.

YORK ASSIZES, MARCH 31.

BOYCE AND OTHERS V. ACKLAND.
This was a Sp,-cial Jury case, to try the right of
the defendant to carry passengers across the river
Humber from Hull to Barton, and contrariwise.
Mr. POLLOCK stated the ease:. It appeared that
the plaintiffs are lessees of the tolls of the ferries
across the Humber, which are granted by lease
horn the Crown to the Corporation of Hull, and by
the corporation to the plaintiffs. In all the leases
(which were of a prescriptive right to take the tolls)
certain rates were mentioned which the lessees were
empowered to take, and no more. These rates had
been adhered to until .about 1815, when steam-
boats were introduced and made use of upon the
Humber, where they were found extremely useful,
because they could go at any time; while on account
of the strong current in the river, the sailing and
rowing boats could pass only at such times as the
tide suited. The steam-boats, though much more
useful, were more expensive, and the fare had been'
in consequence raised; but boats of the old descrip7'
tion were kept for any persons who chose to go by
them at the old fare. In the course of the last year
the defendant established a -steam-boat, and carried

right
of the lessees this action was brought.
The defendant, in person, conducted his own
defence. He took two objections to the declaration,
on which he submitted that the plaintiffs must be.
noncuited. The first was, that they had taken more
toll than they were authorised to take by the char-
ters they had produced; the second, that they had
no right to employ steam-boats. Both objections
were overruled, and the Jury returned a verdict for
the plaintiff, with nominal damages.
London, England, 1832-04-03

EVENING DRESS.

Invention and novelty have for the last two months been de-
voted solely to evening dress. The corset corsages are in great
favour, and promise to supersede the Grecian wraps and folded
dresses so long worn ; the waists are of a very great length, and
are worn shaped, and set on to the gathers without bands, or
with long sashes and fringed ends; these are often fastened at
the hem of the skirt, under flowers, to accord with the head
dress. For young persons, the utmost simplicity is observed
in evening dress. White crape over white gros de Naples, a
broad ribband round the waist, the:ends of which are fastened at
the hem under a rose, is the favourite costume.

It is a remarkable fact, says a correspondent,

vere on them--Cakdonian Mercury.

A FINE RUN--Extract of a letter from an
officer of his Majesty's ship Melville, dated Teneritfe, 3d Fe-
bruary, 1832 :—" We left Spithead on the 22d of January, and
anchored at Falmouth on the 24th. We weighed anchor at
nine, a.m. on the 27th, with a fine breeze at N.N.E., and at
twelve o'clock on the 28th had run 2?-8 miles ; at the same hour
on the 29th, 252 miles ; ditto on the 30th, 252 miles ; ditto on
the 31st, 166 miles ; ditto on the Ist of February, 219 miles ;
ditto on the 2d, 184 miles ; ditto on the 3d, 84 miles ; making a
total of 1,380 miles in a week ; having still a fine breeze." The
Admiral does not mean to anchor here, but to proceed to the
Cape without delay.—Portsmouth Herald.

An address, most respectably signed by the
freeholders of Dorsetshire, with Sir William Oglander at the
head, has been presented to Mr. Ponsonby, calling on him, in
the event of Mr. Portman's retirement, to come forward as a
candidate for the county in his place. Mr. Ponsonby's answer
contains the expression of his hope that Mr. Portman may not
resign. The Sherborne Mercury says—" We still hope that,
under existing circumstances, Mr. Portman will not vacate his
seat. But should he persist in doing so, and Mr. Ponsonby
consent again to be put in nomination, unquestionably that
gentleman possesses a claim which nothing can cancel upon the
exertions of the independent freeholders of the county. We
should much regret at this time to witness another contest ; it
will, however, be unavoidable, if the anti-reformers should de-
cide upon extremities."

THAMES POLICE-OFFICE.

- -
YPsterday, one of the medical officers attached to
his 11Nestv's ship Dover, now lying off Limehouse,
and fitted up as a cholera hospital, waited .on Mr.
BR,WERIP, to complain of a serious annoyance toi
which he had been subjected.

The gentleman, who was in naval uniform, in. ptir
nuance of directions from Government, was rowed
up and down the river every day in the King's boat,
with the pendant flying, to afford immediate assistance
to any persons on the Thames who might be attacked:
with cholera, and remove them, if necessary, to the
floating hospital. While engaged in this duty. he had
been frequently called alongside barges and small sail-
ing vessels by the bargemen and others toattend upon
a person said to be attacked with cholera; but when he
got on board he was laughed at andridiculed. On the
previous (lay he was told by some bargemen that a man
was attacked with cholera on board a- ship off the
Tower; but when he proceeded there, he found
that he had been misinformed, and jeers were
thrown out. Only a few minutes previous he heard
some one call out, ct
Cholera boat, ahoy !" and on
proceeding to the barge from w hence the noise pro-
ceeded, he was told that his services were not
wanted, and a genetal laugh was set up. In fact,
his duties had become exceedingly irksome from this
species of annoyance, and he had been so often sent -
on a wrong scent, that seamen and others on the
river, really in want of assistance, might have suf-
fered from his being out of the way.
Mr. BRoDERIP gave directions for the surveyors
and constables to attend in future on the cholera,
hospital cutter, and daily similar nicks were played
off on the medical gentleman, to bring the parties be-
fore him. •
Mr. E vans,' he principal surveyor, was then directed:
to issue a general order to the Thames police, di- •
recting them to keep a sharp :look-out after -the
sailors and bargemen, when the Cholera boat is pas,-•`
ing along the river.
