SMITHFIELD MARKET

This day's market was indifferently supplied throughout, both
as to numbers and quality. The trade with each kind of meat
was exceedingly dull, with Mutton at a depression of from 2d.
to 4d. ; Veal at an advance of about 2d. per stone; with Beef
and Pork at barely Monday's prices. Milch Cows are much the
same as last week, an useful short horns, with her small calf,
producing 221.

CALCUTTA )MARKETS.

THE IMPORTS .-The transactions of the past week pre-
sent more of detail than that of the preceding, but do not
exhibit any improvement in the state of the market.
INDlGo.—Prices rather low. It is rumoured that Go-
vernment will nut purchase.
The Opium market is without action, stock-holders
being disinclined to sell at loss, and exporters unwilling to
hazard purchasing at the prices asked for drugs, namely,
1,750 to 1760 per chest. Malwa produce for the ensuing
season estimated at about 14,000 chests, or about the
quantity of the season 1829-30.

During the last week a report has been prevalent that
orders are about to be issued by the Government for a
reduction of from twenty to twenty-five per cent. on the
sularies of all assistants in the public offices.
London, England, 1832-01-13

(From the Charleston Papers.)

Letters from Philadelphia of the 6th state that the river
was covered with ice, and that it was doubtful if any
vessel would get to sea.
The Georgetown Gazette of the Bth states that the
Potimar was frozen entirely across, and the navigation
suspended.
The Cape of Good Hope Papers complain of the high
price of every description of vegetables. In Cape Town,
on the arrival of three vessels in the bay, requiring sup-
plies, an immediate rise took place of 50 to 100 per cent.
These Papers are of little interest.

EUGENE ARAM.—Preparations are making,
we understand, at several of the theatres, to dramatise
Mr. BULWER'S last novel, founded on the extraordinary
life and fate of the individual whose name forms the title
of the tale. The wedding scene, and the events which
crowd it, will tell with startling effect on the stage.
Wednesday morning a fire broke out in a
wheat-stack, containing four lasts, on a farm in the occu-
pation of Mr. MEaßfsoN, at Great Walsinghatn. A person
is in custody on suspicion of being the incendiary. Six
hundred pounds have been offered for the conviction of th
offender.—Bury Herald.
I❑ the introduction to her Memoirs, the
Duchess of ABRANTES (Madame JuNoT) says " I entered
into life at a period fertile in remarkable events, and
lived in habits of daily intimacy with the actors of the
great political drama, which engrossed the attention of
Europe for thirty-five years. I have witnessed and have
been engaged in many of the agitated scenes which oc-
curred during an epoch of wonder and bon:,;:' ; and though
I vg.as at the time very young, every incident r,mains in-
delibly engraven on my memory. The private interests
of my family became as it were linked with the public in-
terests."

BY COLONEL BRERETON.

When Lieut.-Colonel Brereton ordered you to re-
move the Dragoons, as you have stated, did he not
order you to remove them to Brislington, and, as

there was but one public-house there, if you could
not get accommodation, to push on to Keynshain ?
And did he not, at the same time, direct you on the
road to Brislington ?—I do not recollect Colonel
Brereton ordering me to Brislington, several people
belonging to the yard named various places.
When Lieut.-Colonel Brereton ordered you to re-
move the 14th, as you have stated, did he not order
von to keep the horses saddled, and to be ready to
be recalled as soon as there should be a reinforce-
►nent of troops ?—I was ordered by the Colonel to
keep the squadron in readiness, but I am not aware
that any mention was made about ,a reinforcement of

troops.
Was not General Pearson in company with
Colonel Brereton at Fisher's stables, at the time
when you removed the 14th Dragoons, and did not
General Pearson accompany you towards Brisling-
ton ?—General Pearson was present befote we left
the yard, and he accompanied the squadron to the
Hot-wells, until he came to a road that led to his
own house at Clifton ; he left us, saying that he
would go home; he wished us success, or good
luck, or words to that effect, and said lie would very
likely come and see us at Keynsham that evening or

next morning.
On the arrival of the 14th Dragoons at their
stables, from Queen-square, on Sunday morning, the
30th, did not Colonel Brereton send to you a Ser-
jeant for a report of the reason of the firing ?—Just
before I arrived at the stables, a soldier overtook
me, and asked me what the firing was about ; I
don't recollect whether or not he said he came from
Colonel Brereton ; I told him that I had been at-
tacked in the streets, and fired in self-defence ! I
have said that I did not recollect whether or not he

on Tuesday, the 11th of October. He had no shirt

Richard Hooton—l live at Sneinton, and am a

ton as. the mob paised through it to Colwick. I
followed the mob, and found they went to Colwick-
hall. At one time I was close to the house. Most
of the time I was at Colwick, I was standing with
the servants of Mr. Musters. I saw the mob doing
mischief in the house. I saw Whittaker, whom I
knew well by sight, with the mob. When I saw
him -he was going away. I heard him say to one of
Mr. Muster's servants, " There, lads, you may go
now. We have done what we mean to do." At
the time he had an iron palisade in his left hand.
He then went away, and I did not see any more of
him.

Other evidence was adduced, after which the
prisoners were heard in their defence, when the
Jury returned a verdict of Guilty against all the
prisoners.

WESTMINSTER.

Yesterday a meeting of the friends and supporters of
Sir John Cam Hobhouse took place at the Quadrant Ho.
tel, Regent-street, for the purpose of securing the election
of the Right Hon. Secretary for Westminster.
The meeting, which was highly respectable, unani-
mouly called B. BEAuxour, Esq., to the chair.

Sir Join; CAM HOBHOUSE rose amidst the cheers of the
meeting, and took a review of his own political conduct
ever since he had the honour of being returned for West-
minster. At the same time he certainly felt rather sur-
prised that, after 14 years' indefatigable exertions in the
cause of the people, an objection should now be made ;
but he appealed with satisfaction to himself and to his
general conduct. Although he had been found fault with
for taking office, still he had not deviated from his prin •
ciples. Sir John sat down amidst loud cheers.
Mr. EWENS, after eulogising the conduct of Sir John
Hobhouse, had one question to ask; namely, whether
the Hon. Baronet would, if returned to Parliament, use
his best exertions to obtain for Westminster an Act to au-
thorize the inhabitants to have a Court of Requests for 51. ?
His attention was called to this subject in consequence of
his being one of the Commissioners for the city of London.
In that Court they had decidtd 9,000 cases for the amount
of a few shillings expense.
B. BEAUMONT observed that they had objected .o have
a pledged candidate, and whether, in getting Sir John to
promise to support such a measure before he had seen the
Bill, it would not be considered as a pledge?
Sir J. C. HOBHOUSE could not consider, by returning an
answer in the affirmative, that he was giving a pledge.
All he had been asked to do, if returned to Parliament,
was to use his exertions to obtain a local Act for the reco-
very of debts to the amount of 51. It was not asking him
to vote this or that way upon a great political question.
If that was the case, he should go into Parliament tied
hand and foot, and be, in fact, a pledged Member.
This answer of Sir John appeared to produce a most fa-
voureile impression upon the meeting, which,after pledging
itself to use its utmost exertions to secure the election of
the Hon. Secretary, broke up without a dissentient voice.

not prove any contractasjoiii the intimacy, and, indeed,
the relationship between die liatiieliV 'any promise or

and verbally, and therefore the plaintiff would be obliged
to show the length and irnport,nce of his services by
witnesses, and by the defendant's own letters, leaving the
Jury to form their own inferences.
His LORDSHIP asked whether the matter could not be
arranged privately.
Mr. THESSIGER (for the defendant) said it was imi os.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER.-(THIS DAY.)

SLANDER.-HAWKINS V. DALE.

Mr. PLATT (with whom was Mr. Burr) htated this
case to the Jury. The action was brought to recover
compensation in damages for certain slanderous words
Token of the plaintiff, an ironmonger in the city, imput-
ing to him fraud in his dealings in trade, by which certain
loss had been sustained by him. The defendant was fore.,
man to a person named Steers, also an ironmonger in the
same neighbourhood, and it was a fact, the Learned Cen-
tleman said, that he was that day defended by his master's
attorney, which he begged the Jury to keep in mind, when
estimating the amount of the damages.
Joseph Faithful deposed that be was a cabinet-maker,
and used to deal sometimes with the plaintiff, and at other
times with the Steers. In October, 1831, he was in
Steers' shop, and asked the defendants how it was that
they charged more for their brass screws than the plaintiff?
Defendants said it was because be did not give twelve
dozen to the gross—that a gentleman had told him he was
in the habit of buying screws from Hair/king, but that
they were done so fast, he charged his men with stealing
them. They denied it, and said the gross was usual y
very short of count. That he then went and bought se-
veral gross, and on counting them he found them many
dozens short. Witness upon this, thinking he had been
often cheated by the plaintiff, did not deal with him for
some time, when he found out that the information was
false.

John Barfoot was told tie same- story, and advised to
weigh some brads which he bought from the plaintiff, as
he sold them 6d. cheaper than Steers, and the defendant was
sure they must be short of weight.
Mr. Sergeant COLERIDGE (assisted by Mr. CHILTON,)
a•idressed the Jury for the defendant. He contended that
the plaintiff had total!), failed in proving special damage,
for he had got back both the customers in a very few
weeks. If the Jury were of opinion that any damage had
neen sustained, be trusted they would think the smallest
coin of the realm would amply compens ire for the inj.try.
His Lordship (Mr. Baron VAUGHAN) having summed
up, the Jury, after a short consultation, returned a
vet diet for the plaintiff—Damages 40s.
London, England, 1832-12-07

MAR YLEB ONE.

Yesterday evening there was a numerous and highly
respectable meeting of the friends and supporters of Mr.
Porttnan, at the Cafe Colosseum, in the New-road; WM.
THOMAS, Esq., in the chair.
Mr. BLAKEMAN read the third report of November 29,
at which time he considered the return of the Hon. Mem-
ber effectually secured ; in all the canvass they had only
met with 99 persons hostile to his return.
Mr. PORTMAN at this moment entered the room
amidst the most enthusiastic cheering. He wished to do
all the good he could, and to make the least noise about
it. The representative of the borough, be he whom he
may, would carry with him a burden of no small weight,
but he would have the assistance of a numerous host of
intelligent persons, who would aid him in the efforts he
bad to make ; the time was arrived when they would not
suffer candidates to cajole the people—they had taken the
work into their own bands, and would prosecute it with
effect.—(Hear, hear.)
The CHAIRMAN requested the early attendance of the
friends of the Hon. Gentleman at the nomination, on Sa-
turday; when the thanks of the meeting were given to
him for his conduct in the chair, and they dispersed, giving
three cheers for Mr. Portman.

FINE ARTS.

FINDEN'S ILLUSTRATIONS TO
BYRON. PART IX.

The Landscapes in this Part, which has only
just made• its apearance, are Cape Leucadia, in-
separably mixed up with the recollection of
Sappho and her summersault ; Venice from
the entrance of the Grand Canal ; the Cork
Convent near Cintra ; the Castle of Ferrara,
which no reader of " Tasso" ever forgets ; and a
portrait of an exquisitely beautiful girl (one of
the young Lady Oxfords, we believe), to whom,
under the poetic name of " lanthe,” Lord
Byron dedicated the two first volumes of his
" Childe Harold." Of these various engravings,
though all are excellent, as Finden's are apt to
be, vet the first is decidedly the best. It is more
elaborately finished, and will bear a closer ex-
amination than the others. The craggy peak
from which the enamoured Lesbian Poetess pre-
cipitated herself, stands very prominently out in
the foreground, and contrasts well by its chalky
English-cliff-like appearance with the back-
ground immediately behind it. The whole forms
a most picturesque landscape.

STATE OF IRELAND.-A very numerous
meeting of the Privy Council assembled yesterday, and
declared the county of Kildare under the provisions of the
" Peace Preservation Act." This proceeding has been
rendered necessary by the state of disturbance in that
country, which has been permitted to assume a dangerous
character, owing, we greatly fear, to the carelessness or
pusillanimity of the gentry. The disturbances in the
county of Clare and the Queen's county were completely
put down by the exhibition of courage, and a determina-
tion to assert the supremacy of the law. The respect-
able and intelligent classes in the county of Kilkenny will
have to blame themselves if they permit the lawless and
evil disposed to riot with impunity. The Government
has shown every readiness to give their utmost assistance
to preserve public peace, and to protect the lives and pro-
perty of the well-disposed.—Dublin Times.

ACOMMON COUNCIL, holden in the

Resolved Unanimously—that this Court, impressed with
feelings of sincere gratification at the elevation of our
late Common Sergeant to the high office of Lord Chief
justice of England, arising at once from great personal
esteem, from a sense of the honour thereby reflected upon
this City, and from a regard to the interests of the
Public, do express the same in an Address of Congratu-
lation to the Right Hon. Sir Thomas Denman upon his
appointment. WOODTHORPF.

MR. HOWARD, DENTIST, 52, Fleet-

TEETH on his improved principle, at the same moderate
terms, whether arising from neglect, disease of the gums.
or age, from a single Tooth to a Complete set, without
extracting the roots or giving any pain whatever, and in
every case, however difficult, restoring perfect articulation
and mastication. An inspection of Mr. Howard's method
will immediately convince those at all acquainted with
the subject of its superiority. Tender and decayed teeth
cured and effectually preserved from further decay. At

Lusus NATURIE.—There is in Elgin one o

the most extraordinary instances of the aberrations of
nature, in the person of a young man, it has ever been our
lot either to see or hear of. The individual in question,
though we never before adverted to him, is a native of
this place. He is 23 years of age. To describe minutely
the appearance of his body is a task which we will not
undertake. Suffice it to say that he is so formed as to he
unable either to sit or walk. He is consequently obliged
to be kept always in his bed ; and even there he cannot
turn from one side to another. The office must be done
by others. When placed on either of his sides, however,
or on his back, he lies without any pain. His legs and
body, in addition to their being curiously twisted, are
slender as a skeleton, while his bones are nearly as soft as
flesh. The back bone, instead of being in the same posi-
tion as in others, is quite perpendicular; while his head is
incomparably the largest we have ever seen. The faculty,
we understand, attribute the extraordinary size of his
head to a gathering of water ; of which one physician,
now deceased, used to say there were at least two chop-
pins. It is somewhat singular that the unfortunate young
man has no beard ; but the hair of his head grows with
remarkable rapidity. He is possessed of very superior
vocal talents, and used to be uncommonly fond of singing ;
but of late he has not indulged so much in it. His me-
mory is extraordinary ; he will repeat whole psalms with
the utmost accuracy after hearing them real two or three
his pronunciation is sin-
him repeat some pieces

last week, we were much struck with the taste he displayed
in placing the emphasis on the proper words. All his
senses are unimpaired. He heirs, 8,,5, &c., as well as
other people. What is very surprising is, that, though
always confined to his bed, unless when his parents take
him out to show him to any visitor, he is luite cheerful;
indeed, he seems to have an uncommon flow of spirits ;
a circumstance we ascribe, in a peat measure, to the com-
mendable tenderness and attention with which his parents
treat him. Altogether, we repeat, as we do not wish to
be more particular, it is seldom one sees or hears of a fellow
being so singularly formed.—.Ellin Courier.

BANKRUPTCY COURT, DEC. 6.

REMINGTON, STEPHENSON AND CO:13 BANKRUPTCY.
Y,sterday having been appointed for an audit and divi-
dend in the joint estate of Remington and Co., late bankers
and for an audit and further dividend in the separate
estate of Rowland Stephenson (one of the bankrupts),
several creditors interested in the relative estates attended
before Mr. Commissioner WILLIAMS, who sit in one of
the private rooms of the Bankruptcy Court, Basing.
hall-street. _

A point of proceedings occupied the Court during some
hours, but the fact is shortly as follows :—The old claim
of 28,0001. against the separate estate of Rowland Ste-
phencon, was put in by the executors of the late Mr. Peto,
the architect, and was disputed as an illegal demand by the
assi.inees of the estate.

Mr. Commissioner WILLIAMS, after bearing the argu-
ments of Counsel on both sides, decided that he would
only admit 12,0001. to he entered as a valid claim ; and
that the remaining 16,000/. were, by his judgment, ex-
punged.
Mr. ABBOTT, the official assignee in the affairs of the
bankrupts, answered, that the total proofs under the joint
estate up to the present time were 496,1177. I ls. on
which adividend of 104. 4d. had already been paid ; and he
was further enabled to declare an additional dividend this day
of sixpence, with a probability of a future dividend of two
shillings. The amount of proofs against the separate
estate up to the present time, he further added, was
180,515/. 16% 3d., on which a dividend of 2s. 6d. had
been previously pid; and he was enabled to make a fur-
ther declaration of Is. this day, with a probability of a
future dividend of 2s. ; and further, should his hopes that
21,0007. will be collected in, be realised, they, together
with 3,0001. belonging to the joint estate in hand, and
11,0001. dividends, in Rowland Stephenson's separate
estate, of which the assignees expect to get possession,
will enable them, he expected, to declare a more enlarged
dividend.
The declared and probable future dividend on the joint
estate, appears to be 12s. 6d., and on the separate estate
ss. 6d., which, as above stated, should circumstances fa-
vour the assignees' expectations, promises to be increased.

A young woman of Blaye named CLEMEN-
TINE PRAT, and a baker of the same town named PRIONE,
had formed an intimacy and attachment for each other.
The lover, however, not only res"lved to defer their union
till she coal bring him a dower equal to his own property,
but in order to attain this objvct induced the infatuated
gill to attempt to get rid of her father, her mother, her
sisters, and her uncle, by means of poison, in order to be-
come the sole inheritor of the family property. This base
and horrible plan failed in the execution, detection fol-
lowed, the guilty pair were placed in the hands of Justice,
and on the 27th tilt. they were both arraigned before the
Court of Assizes for the department of the Marne. The
trial lasted till 1 o'clock in the morning of the 29th, when
both the culprits wore found guilty, and sentenced to hard
labour for life.— Galignani's Messenger,
London, England, 1832-12-07

THE FUNDS.

The accounts published this morning from Brussels and

evening the firing on the citadel of Antwerp continued
from the French batteries with great fury, and it is gene-

As two city merchants were conversing to-

heads, upon which one of the traders exclaimed, " How
happy those cre 'tures are, they have no acceptances to pay."
" You are mistaken," exclaimed bis friend ; " they have
their bills to provide for as well as we."

HUNDREDTHANNIVERSARY OF THE OPEN-

is distinguished by

the opening two very remarkable centenaries
of Vauxhall-gardens, upon the modern plan, by
JONATHAN TYERS, on the evening of June 7, 1752, with a
Ridotto al Fresco; and the original opening of a Theatre
Royal in Covent-garden, on Thursday, the '7th of the fol-
lowing December.

Would any of the gay gentry of these parts
deem themselves honoured, and above their fellows, had
they " tripped the light fantastic toe" with royalty ?

REX V. ACKLAND.

This was a criminal. information against the de-
fendant for publishing a libel upon the Mayor and
Corporation of Hull. The defendant is the same
individual who was convicted a few days ago of pub-
lishing a libel upon one of the Alderman of Hull.
Mr. Pou.ocx said, that the libel was contained
in a weekly publication, called the Hull Portfolio, of
which the defendant was the proprietor and pub-
lisher, and was contained in a letter addressed to
the inhabitants of Hull. (Mr. Pollock here read
passages of the letter alluded to.) The letter began
by stating that the Corporation had lost the confi-
dence of the inhabitants, and after applying to them
a good deal of harsh language, and calling them a
curse to society, the following passage occurred
" They are wealthy, but their superabundance be-
nefits not the poor. They are liberal, but it is in
the extravagance of selfishness. 'I hey are power-
ful, but with this ability to protect the innocent
they prefer to oppress the injured. Instead of en-
couraging industry and enterprise, they paralyze the
one and control the other. In a word, with every
opportunity of good, they are the evil genii of this
town ; all their intentions questionable, and their
acts always pernicious. They should be the incul-
cators of peace. WI at they are the odium that
attaches, to their very name sufficiently proclaims.
Well may they exclaim, in the beautiful words of
our liturgy, We have left undone those things
which we ought to have done, and we have done
those things which we ought not to have done, and
there is no health in us.' "

The publications were proved and read.
The Jury found the defendant Guilty.
There is another information against the defen-
dant for a libel on the Mayor of Hull, which re-
mains to be tried.

THE MARKETS-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

In the past week the arrivals of all kinds of Grain were tole-
rably large, and of Flour considerable. The week being verb
fine, and the country demand having slackened, the trade was
not lively, but some further advatve was made on fine parcels o'
Wheat. This morning the fresh supply of New Wheat was to.
lerably good, and the millers, at the early part, bought up the
fine dry parcels ready, at 2s. per quarter advance on the terms of
last Monday, which also extended to fine old parcels, but the
middling and ordinary sorts met as last sale. New Barley fm
malting is rather clearer, as there was little fine at market to.
day ; grinding parcels remain unaltered. Beans and Grey
Pease as last reported. Boiling Peas are somewhat dearer.—
The Oat trade, from the continued good supply. retains its late
dulness, at no variation in prices. There is some demand for
fine Flour, at last week's prices.

DuE DEIII. HUNGATE V. GASCOIGNE.

This was an action of ejectment brought to reco-
ver possession of a valuable estate, situate at Sher-
burn, in the county of York. The facts of the case
have already been twice laid before the public. On
the first trial the plaintiff had a verdict, which was
afterwards set aside by the Court of King's Bench,
and a new trial granted. A second ejectment brought
to recover other property, but dependent on the
same title, was afterwards tried, and a verdict found
for the defendant. The second trial came on yes-
terday, and lasted the whole of yesterday and a
great part of to-day. The evidence was nearly the
same as that given on the former trials. The pro-
perty in question formerly belonged to the Hungate
family and passed into the family of the Gascoignes
by marriage. It was enjoyed by that family until
the death of the late Sir William Gascoigne, who
dying in 1809 without heirs, devised it to the wife
of the present defendant, who took the name of Gas-
coigne. The present claimant then put in a claim
as heir at law to the Hungate family.
The Jury found for the defendant, on the ground
that the plaintiff had not proved his descent.

SATURDAY.—YeIterd ty there was a little Fete at Vir-

trial of a newly-invented steam-boat. The vessel was i❑
miniature, and moved by clock-work. The precise nature
of the invention will not, of course, be divulged for the
present ; but we understand the chief object is to die-
pense with the use of the paddle-wheels. The inventor is
a Mr. HALE, a descendant of the celebrated Chief Justice
HALE ; and the experiment is said to have been quite
successful.
The KING and QUEEN have taken their daily airings
during the week, and are in remarkably good health._
The statement re.pecting her MAJESTY'S having suffered
