EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM PENICHE, OCT. :30, 1834.

" I also learn from a shoemaker who resides very near
your house here, that a corporal of the National Artillery,
a native of Laurinha, whose name is Quitola, saw the mur-
der committed, and has confessed the same to the said
shoemaker.'• 'ln short, I he to state that. there are several
-women who saw the deed committed, but whO'itie,restitt.:
ed from giving evidence from fear. I trust that you will
pardon me for not making this statement, in presence of a
notary public, as I am myself marked out for vengeance.
All is fear and amazement here, and anxiety for Colonel
Honner's return. I have been told in many houses here,
that if he does not
_shortly return, the people are deter-
mined to petition Government to that effect."

Upon every application made by Colonel Honner to the
• GoVernor of the prince and Colonel Saraadia to learn the
cause: of his being detained in Lisbon, they distinctly stated
that they never saw or heard of any charge or accusation
whatever, and that, whatever the cause may be, it was known
only to the Minister of War. They, however, fancied that
it was in consequence of the Governor and Colonel Honner
not agreeing. Upon which Colonel H. stated the only dis-
agreements he ever had with him was upon two occasions ; one
was, that the Governor sent a message to Colonel Honner, to
'tie up one of his men immediately, and give him 100 lashes
with twigs, and if he did not do so, that he (the Governor)
would come upon the Colonel's parade in the evening and do
it himself. In reply to which the Colonel informed him that
if he had any charge aiainst any of the men to send it in in
writing, and order a Court-martial, and the 'man should be
regularly tried, and punished if found guilty ; but that no man
under his command should be flogged with twigs, or be pu-
nished without a tegular trial ; and with respect to his coming
on the Colonel's parade to' flog any of his men, he recom-
mended him seriously to consider before he made the attempt.
The second occasion of difference was that the Governor sent
for Colonel' Honner, and desired him immediately to tie up
one Timothy Murphy, and give him 100 lashes with twigs ;
upon which the Colonel informed him, be thought he had
made a sufficient communication upon that subject before; to
which he begged leave now to refer him. The Governor re-
plied, " You have my orders, Sir, to flog him directly, and if
you don't do so I will report you to Government." The
Colonel replied, " I shall not obey your order, and you are
very welcome to make what report you please."

PRIVY COUNCIL.

The Judicial Committee of the Privy Council sat on
Saturday morning in the Council Chamber, and resumed
the appeal from the High Court of Admiralty (respecting
the ship Neptune) Hodges v. Sims. The Lords present
were the Vice-Chancellor, and the Right Honourable Sir
J. Bernard Bosanquet, Thomas Erskine, and Sir Herbert
Jenner.

Lordships for the Respondent, in support of the decree of
the Court below. Dr. Lushington followed on the same
side. Mr. Holt, K.C., replied on the part of the appellant,
and their Lordships then adjourned.
The Lords of his Majesty's most Honourable Privy
Council afterwards held a meeting to deliver their deci-
sion on the appeal by Mr. Burge, as the agent for the
Island of Jamaica, against certain rules of the Commis-
sioners of the West India Compensation Fund. The
meeting was attended by the Lord President, the Secre-
tary of State for the Colonies, the Vice-Chancellor, Mr.
Baron Parke, and the Right Honourable Thomas Erskine.
The counsel by whom the appeal bad been argued were in
attendance. The Vice-Chancellor, after stating that the
rules appeared generally framed to meet all cases that may
arise, proceeded to detail a few observations (additions) that
their Lordships had made in some of the rules of the Com-
missioners.

On the application of Counsel, it was understood to be
arranged, that the rules of the Commissioners should re-
main, with the amendments of their Lordships.
The -meeting then broke up.

BRUSSELS PAPERS.

BRUSSELS, FEB. 14.—The Courrier Beige publishes!
letter from Berlin, of the llth February, to the followiDg
effect :
" Every thing here wears a pacific -appearance. I 'utt`c
seen with astonishment that Foreign Journals doubt
news of the reduction of the Prussian army. It is veil
certain that in the Rhenish. provinces, that is to say nllBl
the Western Frontiers, the parks of Artillery are dissolvet.
and the horses sold. The reserve of the Polish regimen
stationed on the Rhine, have been disbanded. We l'w3r:°f.l,
new reductions of the effective force of the army, by viiPie./1

be diminished by six millions, (about one million sterling.)

A new society of rich capitalists has just been forme
under the title of Societe de Commerce de Brusselles. 'l'h'
object of its operations will be the extension of the coo-

branches of the commercial business. Among the founders
are several of the Directors of the Bank, and a great new
ber cf persons of large property.
Commercial transactions were very brisk at Antwerp last,
week. The public sales the day before;yesterday amounted
to 1,000 bales of Coffee, 000 bales of Cotton, and 4(%)
chests of Sugar.
In the sitting of the Senate yesterday, the debate on tbe
Budget of the Minister of the Interior was continua,'
' The sum of 10,000 francs, proposed for the support of t 11!
Anglican church, gave occasion to a long discussion, whic°
was in the end agreed to by a majority of 18 to 13. Tr
retrenching of this 10,000 francs had been proposed
the Committee, to reduce the sum asked for by the .6°;
vernment from 90,000 to 80,000 francs. Other articles 0`

MILBURNE V. LISTER.

In ibis case Lord Brougham, on the last day of his sit-
tings as Lord Chancellor, intimated before he left the
Court, that he had written his judgment, and would hand
it to the Registrar. By some accident the judgment did
not reach the Registrar until the 25tH of November, al-
though dated on the 21st, the day of his Lordship's retire-
ment from office, and regularly signed. It was now made
a question whether a judgment not promulgated until after
the retirement of the Lord Chancellor, and not delivered
in open Court, could be considered binding on the parties.
Mr. KINDERSLEY and Mr. KEEN contended that such
a judgment could not be considered regular.
Mr LovATT, on the other hand, argued that the acci-
dent of its not reaching the Registrar did not affect its
validity.
The LORD CHANcELLon saw no reason to doubt that
Lord Brougham had really left this, among other judgments,
in his private room before he gave up the seals, and under
the circumstances stated of his Lordship mentioning it in
Court, and saying he would hand it out to the Registrar,
the delay that had from some accident taken place ought
not to deprive it of validity. His Lordship therefore di-
rected the order to be draWn up from the minutes of Lord
Brougham's decree.

THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. THE FISHMONGERS' COMPANY
- -

•
This was an appeal motion from an order of the Vice-
Chancellor. The bill was filed for a discovery of certain
documents relating to the estate of Sir Thomas Easeworth,
in St. Dunstan's in the East, which were in 1513 be-
queathed to the Fishmongers' Company for uses afterwards
held to be superstitious. The Company subsequently, as
they allege, procured a grant of the same property from
Edward VI. on the payment of a fine of 18,5001., but
without having annexed to the grant any of the conditions
contained in the original bequest. The relatives, on the
contrary, contend that some of the uses were not super-
stitious ; that the Crown made a grant of rents out of the
land to the Fishmongers' Company, but not of the lands
themselves, and that these lands beyond the rents are still
liable to the trusts of the testator, and they therefore re-
quire an inspection of the deeds under which the Company
claim to hold the property. 'lle Fishmongers' Company
demurred to the bill ; the Vice-Chancellor allowed the
demurrer, and against this decision the relatives appeal.
The motion was opened at some length by Sir W. Horne
and Mr. Anderton in Michaelmas Term.
Judgment postponed.

NEGRO DANDYISM.—Most persons have seen a
series of humourous. but apparently exaggerated, sketches,
representing negro life at New York. According to a recent
traveller is America, none of those pictures at all exceed the
truth. Speaking of the Castle Garden, the writer in question
says—" On Sundays this public walk is filled with people of
all classes, particularly those of the sable cast, making a pro-
fuse display of their finery. To the negroes this place of re-
sort is something like Hyde-park, a place for show. Their
dress in general borders on extravagance. The women wear
bonnets decorated with ribands,• plumes, and flowers of a thou-
sand different colours,-and their dresses are of the most showy
description : the men 'are attired like real French petit-maz-
tres manques—the coat so open, that. the shirt sticks out under
the armpits ; the waistcoats are of all colours of the rainbow ;
the hat is carelessly put on one side ; the gloves ore yellow ;
and every sable dandy carries a smart cane."

Mojcir;tv for Mr. Balfour
The election has passed over with the utmost decorum anti
good feeling, and without the slightest disturbance. After the
declaration, Mr. Balfour was chaired, and conducted in pro-
cession from the hustings, there being present nearly 2,009
persons, consisting of the trades of Kirkwall, and deputations
of the tenantry, fishermen, and others from all parts of the
country. In the evening the town of Kirkwall, and the sur-
rounding farm-houses, were illuminated. Mr. Traill bad left
Orkney previous to the declaration. Mr. Balfour took his
leave shortly afterwards, and was in Inverness on Wednesday
on his way south.

ST. PANCRAS PAROCHIAL COM-

MITTEE,

Sir Samuel Whalley's answer to his constituents, as tog.
the Speakership, has been handed to us. Whore members
ire returned free of expense, as in Marylebone, the elec-
tors have a right to expect such a pledge as contained in
Sir Samuel Whalley's letter :

GENTLEMEN,—Though your vigilance is very mamendable,
and if generally felt by all the constituencies, would have the
happiest effect, yet, lam the last man in the empire of whom
any distrust can be entertained, fur I was the first man pub-
licly to denounce Sir Charles Sutton, which I did from the
hustings. If the Ilcuse of Commons is so lost to all sense of
decency and self-respect, as to place in the chair the tool of a
party—the enemies of the people—the aspirant to a seat in thal..
House which is now struggling for an ascendancy over the
people's House—the successful intriguer against the political
existence of the very body of own who gave him the station
and influence he used against them—then I shall despair of
any good that can come front men infatuated and self-degraded. -
Every influence will be used—the national purse will be thi•own
into the scale. But I have little fears for a happy re alt, to
which most assuredly, my efforts shall be directed.
Believe me, Gentlemen, your faithful servant,
SAMUEL B. WHALLEY.

THE COURT of DIRECTORS of the EAST
INDIA COMPANY hereby give Notice,
That the East India Mail of the Ist March, which was dispatched
to Alexandria by the Mediterranean packets, was delivered on the
Ist of April to the Commander of the steamer Hugh Lindsay, at
Suez, and that the Hugh Lindsay sailed from Suez on the 3d of
April for Bombay.
The Court is of opinion that letters which have arrived, or may
arrive, in Egypt between the middle of April and the middle of
September would probably have opportunities of expeditious trans-
mission to India by country sailing vessels ; but the Court have
made no arrangements for the transmission of such letters in any
way, and the East India Company has not the means of doing so.
The Court issue this public notice in order to remove any erro-
neous impression which may exist respecting. the establishment of
an East India Mail through Egypt ; and they think it necessary to
add that, to the best of their knowledge and belief, there are not
opportunies for the expeditious transmission to India of letters which
may arrive in Egypt between September and April.

THE NEW HOUSE OF LORDS.

Viscount DUNCANNON begged to call the attention of
their Lordships to the subject of some temporary accommoda-
tion being provided for their Lordships, and upon which he
wished to receive the instruction of their Lordships, as the
best period for building was fast passing away.
After a few words from the Earl of LIMERICK,

The Duke of RICHMOND thought, although the present
House was inconvenient, the other might be found equally so.
The sum required was, he understood, 5,0001., and perhaps it
would be better to remain in the present House until the new
buildings was completed.—( Hear, hear.)
Viscount D UNCANNON (as well as we could guess at
what he said) assured the House that this considerate feeling
on the part of their Lordships was fully responded to by the
House of Commons, who had come to the determination that,
:n the erection of the new permanent House, consideration
should be first had to the accommodation of their Lordships,
and had directed that the new House of Lords should be com-
pleted in the first instance.

CERTIORARI BILL.

A BILL for preventing the vexatious removal of Indictments
into the Court of King's Bench; and for extending the Pro-
vi,ions of an Act of the Fifth year of King William and Queen
Mary, for preventing delays at the Quarter Sessions of the
Peace, to other indictments; and for extending the Provisions
of an Act of the Seventh year of King George the Fourth as
to taking Bail in cases of Felony.
Clause 1 (there are only three) enacts that no Certiorari
shall issue to remove Indictments, &c., from inferior Courts to
the Court of King's Bench, at the instance of a Prosecutor,
without leave from that Court.
2. Defendants must enter into such recognizances as the
Court shall require, before they can obtain a Writ of Certio-
rari to remove indictments, &c.
3. And whereas in many cases the taking Bail for the ap-
pearance of persons charged with Felony, may be safely ad-
mitted without endangering the appearance of such persons to
take their trial in due course of law ; and it is therefore expe-
dient in such cases to amend and extend the provisions in that
respect of an Act passed in the Seventh year of King George
the Fourth, intituled " An Act for improving the Administra-
tion of Criminal Justice in England ;" be it therefore enacted,
that it shall be lawful for any two Justices of the Peace, if they
shall think fit, of whom one or other shall have signed the war-
rant of commitment, to admit any person or persons charged
with felony, or against wnom any warrant of commitment for
felony is signed, to bail in the manner and according to the
provisions directed by the said recited Act, in such sum or
sums of money, and with such surety or sureties as they shall
think fit; and notwithstanding such person Or persons shall
have confessed the matter laid to his or their charge, or not-
withstanding such Justices shall not think that the charge is
groundless, or shall think that the circumstances are such as to
raise a presumption of guilt.

THE KING V. BOST.

This was an indictment for perjury. The parties dif-
fered and separated, and the prosecutor filed a bill in the
Equity Exchequer for an account and for other relief. The
defendant put in an answer, and in that answer swore that
the prosecutor had represented himself as a person com-
petent, under the existing laws of this country, to carry on
business as a general practitioner. On this part of the an-
swer the present indictment was founded.

The prosecutor on being examined described himself as
having served three years as an apprentice to an apothecary
at Liverpool. The statement in an affidavit filed by the
prosecutor in equity was that " he had been duly appren-
ticed to an apothecary at Liverpool, and had served his time."
Lord DENMAN thought that this variance must prevent
the case from being carried further.
The Jury Acquitted the defendant.
REES V. SIBLEY.

This was an action to recover the value of a trunk and
its contents, belonging to the plaintiff, and which the de-
fendant had negligently allowed to be taken from his office.
The plaintiff was a young man of fortune, and the defendant
was a person who kept a booking-office at Kensington.
Sir J. CAMPBELL, for the defendants, asserted that the
trunk had not been booked, but that the porter who brought
the luggage appered to be the person entrusted with ti.e
care of it.

BANKRUPTCY COURT.-THIS DAY

This morning, a numerous meeting of the creditors under
the fiat of bankruptcy issued against the firm of Bentley, Dear
and Company, warehousemen, of Cheapsiee, was held before
Mr. Commissioner Evans, for the proofs of debts, and the de-
claration of a dividend. The Court was crowded, and the
proceedings appeared to excite much interest. Many proofs
were admitted to a large extent. A claim was tendered on
the part of Messrs. Sturdge and Sharp under these circum-
stances person, named Scott, obtained goods from them
on a reference to Bentley, who said the firm would pay for the
goods ; Scott was entered as the debtor, but Messrs. Sturdge
and Sharp had received payment for them by bills, signed by
Bentley in the name of the firm. Mr. Dear, one of the part-
ners, now stated that he was ignorant that Bentley gave a
promise in the name of the firm, and that the names of the
claimants were not in the partnership books.
Mr. Ashurst, the solicitor to the fiat, opposed the claim,
which was argued at some length.
Mr. Commissioner EVANS said his impression was that he
ought not to allow the claim ; but as the question was of im-
portance, he would take time to consider.
It was stated in the course of the morning that the dividend
would not be asN?rtained for a day or two, and that the credi-
tors who had proved would receive a notice from the
assignee, stating the sum and the time the dividend would be
paid. The debts now proved amount to an immense sum, and
a good dividend is expected.

The 78th Highlanders have raised a monument,

A German journal, in giving an account of the
Duc de Leuchtenberg's Museum at Munich, states that there
are many articles which belonged to Napoleon, and among
them a small temple, with a marble cupola, supported by co-
lumns of jasper, the base of which is ornamented with antique
cameos, bearing the letter J. In the centre of the temple is
a small eagle in silver, and the following inscription :—" The
Emperor Napoleon, being obliged to melt down his plate at
St. Helena, preserved the eagles for his family. This was sent
to Prince Eugene."

MELANCHOLY SHIPWRECK .AND Loss OF LIFE.
—During the storm on Wednesday night, the brig Endeavour,
from Drogheda, was driven on the banks below Voel Nant,
not far from the entrance to Chester River. At day-light the
crew were seen in the rigging, and the lifeboat Olt off to their
assistance. The attempt, 'however, to save the crew did not
succeed, the boatmen, after making every exertion to reach
the vessel, having been compelled to give it up in despair.
At nightfall the unfortunate crew still clung to the rigging.
Neit morning every trace of the wreck had disappeared, and
the crew, eight in number, met a watery grave. We have
not heard of any other wreck attended with the loss of
life.—Liverpool Albion.
