MUSIC.

The songs entitled the " Mariner's 'Welcome

" Beauty's Queen," are each very pleasing samples of
melody. The words have no pretensions to superior
poetic excellence, but the versification is correct and
smooth.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

Montreal Papers to the 10th, and Quebec Papers to the
Bth January, have been received at the North and South
American Coffee-house. The former papers have no news
worth extracting : the frost continued there with great severity.
By the latter papers we learn that the Canadian Paper of the
sth ult. states that the provincial revenue of last•year will be
deficient from 30 to 40,0001. The thermometer fell again to
15 below Zero.

PICTOU, DEC. 16.—The harbour was frozen over on Friday,
and on the following morning several persons crossed it. The
cold was so very intense that the thermometer was 5 degrees
below Zero. Two vessels bound for Halifax succeeded in
cutting out.

From the American papers received this morning to the
17th January :—" We learn from Maracaibo, of the 18th inst.,
that business of all descriptions was at a complete stand, owing
to the depressed state of the currency, caused by the introduc-
tion of counterfeit copper coins, ands that the whole country
was inundated with it. The Provincial Government, in con
sequence, issued orders that all holders of copper should depo-
sit it in the Public Treasury by the Ist December, for which
Provincial receipts should be given, and these redeemed by
the Government paper, to be sent from Rio Janeiro. The
copper, when received by the Government, to be stamped, and
re-issued at a quarter of its original price or value."
Accounts from Washington state, that " the war fever here
has entirely subsided, and unless the French Government are
resolved to kick up a row all will be peaceably setted."
LATE AND IMPORTANT NEWS FROM PARA.
An arrival at Boston brings accounts that an insurrection
broke out in that province, about thirty miles from that town,
about the middle of November. The Governor sent au officer,
with a file of soldiers, who were all killed or taken prisoners ;
he then fitted out an 18 gun brig, with several other armed
vessels, and proceeded to meet the insurgents, whom they
attacked and defeated, but the Governor, who commanded the
expedition, was killed. A number of the insurgents were
made prisoners.

named Piggott, who told him he was a "cross cove." Pri-
soner replied that he did not know what that was. Piggott
said he picked pockets, and passed bad money. and asked
prisoner to carry bad money for him, and go " schoffel-pitch-
ing" (uttering) with him. Prisoner refused, but consented
two days afterwards, in consequence of being out of work.
The Jury returned a verdict of
Louisa Brown, aged 20, Maria Holloway, aged 25, and
Margaret Rourk, alias Green, alias Cain, were jointly indicted
for uttering two counterfeit crowns.
Wm. Stray, of Tottenham Court-road, shoemaker, stated
that the prisoners came together to his shop, and Brown ten-
dered a crown-piece for a pair of boots. He put it into his
till without suspicion; but after they had left the shop his son
communicated something to him which induced him to follow
the priscners. He overtook Holloway, and pushed her into
a shop, where he detained her until a policeman came to his
assistance.

Mrs. Elizabeth Allager, of Tottenham-court-road, stated
that the prisoner Green during the interval entered her shop
and purchased a gilt snap, for which she tendered a crown-
piece, the price being a shilling. Brown shortly afterwards
came into the shop, and asked to look at some black ear-drops.
Mr. Stray then pushed Holloway into the shop, and witness
saw her try to conceal some money under the matting on the
floor. She also threw a pair of boots under the counter.
Police-constable Rice stated that he was called upon to take
the prisoners into custody. He found a good sovereign, and
two good half-crowns upon Green, but no bad money.
The COMMON SERGEANT told the police-constable that he
had co business to take the money away from the prisoners in
this case. This was a practice too prevalent, and very unjust
to prisoners, when the property so seized was unconnected
with the charge, because, in depriving them of their property,
they were deprived of the means of preparing for their defence.
He felt very strongly upon this point, and had communicated
his sentiments to Mr. Justice Pattison, who entirely concurred
with him, and said he would take the first opportunity of pub-
licly expressing his objection to so unfair and illegal a practice.
Mr. BODKIN said that there was a case tried in the other
Court, in which the policeman, after he had apprehended a
prisoner, went to his house, broke open his box, and took
away valuable property, which had not the slightest connec-
tion with the charge.
The police-constable said the prisoners applied for the
money when before the Magistrates, who refused to give it up.
The COMMON-SERGEANT said it was very cruel to act in this
way towards the prisoners, because as soon as they were con-
victed, such property was forfeited to the Crown. Magistrates
ought to know that so high an authority as Judge Pattison was
opposed to the practice.
Mr. CHAMBERS addressed the Jury in behalf of Holloway,
and Mr. ROWE for Brown.
The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty.

_HEINE BROTHER S, Contractors for the
GREAT LOTTERY, published and drawn by authority
and under guarantee of the Hamburg Government, beg to inform the
public, that the 65th Lottery of 10,000 Tickets will be drawn on
the 18th of March next ; and Tickets are now selling at 108 marks
baneo, or 8/. The razes are lof 100,000, lof 50,000, lof 30,000,
1 of 20,000, 1 of 10,0(X), 2 of 5,000, 4 of 3,000, 7 of 2,000, 20 of
1,000, 40 of 500, and 1,500 of 103 marks, which 1,578 money
prizes are altogether stated in marks baneo, and payable without any
deduction whatever ; 4,000 ticketsbeing delivered gratis to theholders
of the 2,000 first-drawn tickets, as per scheme, those purchasing
one ticket, at the trifling cost of 81., may obtain three prizes, and
thus, if fortune proves favourable, gain 180,000 marks banco, at
the present exchange, equal to 13,0001. sterling. Owing to the
gratis-tickets, the nun-11,er of tickets on sale is a very limited one,
so that, of course, they will be cleared off very rapidly, and a
rise in price occur very soon. Those desirous to purchase at the
present first price of V., are requested to direct, by one of the
first mails, but only for whole tickets, to the above-named Con-
tractors, Heine BrGthers, in Hamburg. Those remitting a 101.
note will receive an order for the balance of 2/., together with
the ticket, by return of mail; on the other hand, those preferring
to pay Heine Brothers' draft for the cost, are recommended to pay
such draft immediately whin presented. A full scheme, and every
desirable information, being always sent with the tiesets, those
Filing orders will only have to write a line, ordering the ticket or
tickets, adding the money, or an order for the same, or stating the
mode of payment that may be more convenient to the orderer, and
giving their full and plain directions, to secure the safe receipt of
the communications. Those honouring Heine Brothers by pur-
chasing, may depend on the strictest secrecy, as to their taking a
chahee or getting a prize ; such being the undeviating rule of the
old-established and most lucky Office.

BEGBIE V. COOK.

This was an action of replevin brought to recover damages
for an illegal distress. The plaintiff is proprietor of the King
of Prussia public-house, in Rosemary-lane, and the defendant
the Sheriff's-officer who made the distress, is merely a nomi-
nal party, the real defendants being the trustees of the estate
of which these premises of the plaintiff form a part. The
estate belonged to Colonel Solway, who died in the year 1825,
devising the whole of this estate to the defendants as trustees.
Up to the period of Colonel Solway's death, the then occu-
pant of the public-house in question, a person of the name of
Brown, paid rent regularly to the receiver of the rents of the
estate. After the Colonel's death, there were several claim-
ants to the estate, which consequently became a subject
of litigation in almost all the courts, the several claimants or-
dering the tenants not to pay rent to the others, and threaten-
ing them with ejectment in case they did. The present plain-
tiff, who had been let into possession of the premises by the
former occupant, Brown. had not paid rent for the last six
years, and the distress which was the object of the present ac-
tion, was served in order to recover this arrear of rent by the
persons, who have been declared by. the Court of Chancery to be
trustees and devisees of the estate, under the will of Colonel
Solway. On the part of the plaintiff, it was contended' that the
defendants had not proved their title to the estate in question,
and that the plaintiff never acknowledged their title. This
being a point of law, was submitted to his Lordship.
The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE said that the former tenant,
Brown, from whom the present plaintiff received the premises
in question, had acknowledged the title of Colonel Solway,
by paying rent from the year 1820 to 1823, and there was no-
thing to show that Brown was ever turned out of possessior.
He must take it, therefore, that Begbie's title was derivabie
from Brown's; and, in his opinion, the defendant was entitled
to a verdict. It was for himself to choose whether he would
take a verdict for the rent for the last six years, or only for the
last quarter.
Verdict for the defendant—damages 2701., subject to con-
sideration.

BRIGHTON.

In the forenoon of Wednesday the Queen, accompanied by
Earl and Countess Howe, and Miss Hope Johnstone, drove to
Kemptown, where her Majesty and attendants alighted, and
walked for some time on the esplanade below the cliff. The
day was exceedingly fine, and the sun shone most brilliantly.
His Majesty gave audience to General Sir James Cockburn
on Wednesday afternoon, and then, accompanied by her Ma-
jesty, drove out as far as Rottingdean, and back to the Palace.
Count and Countess Ludolf arrived here on Wednesday

the safety and solidity of the Society may admit.
The members of the Society consist of persons assuring their
own lives for the whole term of life, who, after five annual pay-
ments, will, by a reduction of the premium, have the benefit of the
whole of the profits, without the participation of any proprietary
whatsoever, the Society being founded upon the principle of a com-
munity of interest, or mutual assurance.
Every other description or modification of Life Assurance is un-

NEWPORT.

A large meeting of the rate-payers of the borough of New-
port was held in the Assembly Room of the Green Dragon, on
Thursday evening last, to take into consideration the measures
necessary to be adopted in consequence of the proceedings in
the House of Lords, respecting the Bill for Municipal Corpo-
ration Reform. The meeting was both numerous and respect-
able. Mr. S. Pring was called to the chair, who opened the
business of the meeting in an able speech. John Cooke, Esq.,
Mr. John Gould, R. J. Kirkpatrick, Esq., Mr. Sayer, Mr.
E. Wilkins, Mr. John Whittington, and others, addressed the
meeting, proposing resolutions in accordance with the objects
of the meeting. A strong feeling, however, existed against
petitioning the Lords ; and Mr. Whitcombe proposed an
amendment to the petition to the House of Lords. However,
on the meeting dividing, the resolutions and petition were
carried by an overwhelming majority. Our learned town-clerk,
Mr. Hearn, is inlLondon, waiting, we have been informed, to
give evidence of the immaculate purity of our Select Cor.
poration.
London, England, 1835-08-08

in the Report these words—" That the management of the
funds were by no means unsatisfactory."
You complain that there is not so warm an approbation 11. S.
you desire ?—I don't make it a matter of complaint; but vvhg'r
your Lordship asks me to explain, I do not think it equal,,
warm approbation as that expressed by the Commissioners..
n
is Hot fair approbation. Is the last paragraph unfair ;Vo
which contains the word "scandalous," as used by yotl?"..
(Warmly)—Well, I will tell you, my Lord !
Lord RADNOR—WeII, that is what I want to Wl"'
don't be angry with me. I only want your own explanationi
Witness (humbly)—My Lord, I speak in my natural Pali--
mean no disrespect. The Commissioners chose to quote Of
expressions and authority, if it may be so called, for tbele
ought not to have picked out a single expression, and lot!.
out my total explanation ; and I protest against the inferencro.
of blame drawn from it. You denied that you had powe,l'uoi
put a stop to abuses of the Corporation ? We did. l't
Commissioners asserted that you had? They did. That is hthe,
you complain of—that your expressions have been giveri
out your explanation ?—Exactly so. Did you apply to t
nett-,
House of Commons not to be put in Schedule A ?—We r-c„,
tioned, but we expected to have an opportunity of bringing ';
ward a complete case, and to enjoy the indulgence of PI
Lordships, which we do this day. We complain of the ba
ships which will arise out of the severance which this Bill cea;
templates. We do not apply to have Shrewsbury taken
of the Schedule, but they prayed that this Bill might not I
'
into law, and also for such other relief as their LordshiP3'
your wisdom, might think proper to give.
Mr. Luxton examined—Am a barrister and also Town-Cle,4
of Shrewsbury. Entirely concur in the statements f
Miller. There are two newspapers published in Shrewsburf,.•
One is the Shrewsbury Chronicle. Its politics are Ratrs,,,,
and violent. The editor of it is Mr. John Trotton
examined before the Commissioners respecting th(
funds but objected, and told the Commissioners that
nothing to do with them.

are administered.

DOVER.

(From the Dover Chronicle.)
On Thursday last a meeting of the inhabitants of Dover,
favourable to the Municipal Reform Bill, assembled at the
Hovellina Boat, in order to prepare a petition to the House of
Lords. At eight o'clock the large room at the above inn was
completely crowded, with a highly respectable assembly. Mr.
W. PRESCOTT was called to the Chair.

After giving the usual loyal toasts, the Chairman proposed
" The health of Edward Rice, Esq.," which was received with
the most enthusiastic cheering.
Mr. RICE said there was an end—a very desirable end to be
obtained by the meeting that night. The time was now come,
when silence would be construed into an acquiescence with the
abuses sought to amended. The inhabitants had not, it was
true, petitioned in favour of this Bill on its first introduction.
But it was not from any lukewarmness—any want of ardour in
the cause—they had considered it safe in the bands of the
Friends of the People. But they were now imperatively called
upon to vindicate themselves. Sir Charles Wetherell bad
claimed Dover as his client—he had declared that be appeared
for the people—and for the people, indeed, he appeared only,
inasmuch as the people would haVe to pay for his attendance,
and IlJe attendance of thost viitnes;e: whom be bad called.
And this he Considered one of the worst features,-in- this el-
FIEFte hearing of evidence, that the- irresponsible power over

DONCASTER:

Mr. Fisher, the t3wn-clerir. 01 Doncaster, was next exa-
mined—The Corporation was one of ancient date. It was
dated in 1193. The borough once returned ?,.'embers for Par-
liament, but had not for many }ears. The property of the
Corporation amounted to 11,6101. 6a. 10d. per annum. Under
the existing charter, the otlicers of the Corporation were su!)-
ject to his Majesty's approbation, but that would cease shoed
the Bill pass. The Corporatiun consisted of a mayor, re-
corder, townelerk, three burgesses. twelve aldermen, and
twouty-four common councilmen. Except the maym-, t;:e
Corporation oflicers were appointed for life. o..ving to good
ntmagement, the property of the Corporatiol; had consider-
ably increased. In Doncaster there was no borough rate ;
and, in the opinion of the witness, such a rate would never be
requisite. The Corporation defrayed the ch:zrg-es of impro...e-
moot, lighting, paving, and watering, and, in addition, su!:-
scribed largely to the charities of the borough. The Corpo.
ration had expended nearly 20,0001. in providing additional
accommodation for the frequenters of Doncaster races. The
races were a great advantage to the town, and, consequen
such an outlay was a direct benefit to its inhabitants. In no
instance had the Corporation subscribed for any political pur-
pose. The Corporation of Doncaster was considered the beat
corporation in England, and he did not think its system was
in any way capable of improvement. There was a party in
Doncaster, desirous of getting possession of the corporate
funds; and, considering their amount, it was not wonderful
they should have such a desire. There was 2;050 houses in
Doncaster. Of these 273 were rated at upwards of 10/., and
1,772 at under 10/. The former class paid in rates far more
than the latter. The persons desirous of change were priori.
pally those rated at al., below which sum no house was rated.
The Magistrates of Doncaster performed their duties much to
the satisfaction of the inhabitants.
SHREWSBURY.

Mr. Peel, a member of the Corporation of Shrewsbury,
was next examined. The material parts in his evidence re-
lated to the expenditure of the Corporation funds, and the ad-
ministration of justice by the borough magistrates. Both
one and the other gave perfect and unqualified satisfaction to
the majority of the inhabitants. The funds were exclusively
applied to the benefit of the town and district. The Corpo-
ration was popular with the majority of the inhabitants. The
Dissenting interest was against the Corporation on account
of the mode of election. The proposed change could not be
satisfactory to the wealth or respectability of the borough.

the institution of these suits. Had read the Municipal Cor-
porations Reform Bill. A revenue of 18,0001. a year would
be handed over under the Bill to popularly-elected trustees.
Houses in Bedford were rated as low as 21. a year, Occupiers
of such low-rated tenements would be entitled to vote under
the proposed Bill. Thought the present system far the best.
Popular election was contrary to the original intention of the
founders of the charities.
